love letter to summer

Ice is soaked in the wine, so the orange-red wine has deep and light colors. Where there is no ice, the color is rich, and where there is ice, it is translucent and light, like a work of art.

Ye Ji turned the wine glass, and the wine swirled gently in the glass.

"Do you like to observe the cup?" Brother Nan's face suddenly came closer.

Ye Ji's body moved back a bit, Brother Nan glanced at him, Ye Ji pretended nothing happened, and said flatly: "No."

Brother Nan looked at him for a while, then suddenly pointed behind him, and asked, "What's your opinion on this bar? For example, how old it is, how popular it is."

Ye Ji looked at him strangely.

Brother Nan: "Hey, it's not a test, I'll just ask you a few questions, and you can just say a few words."

"It's been in business for about three or four years, and the popularity is good." Ye Ji said, and at the same time looked at Brother Nan with puzzled eyes.

Brother Nan nodded with a smile, seeming to agree with Ye Ji's judgment, and then asked, "Why?"

"..." Ye Ji, "The floor, tables and chairs, wallpaper, and sofa are all a bit old."

Ye Ji looked down at the sofa, touched it, and said, "Judging from the degree of wear and tear, it has been used for about three years."

Brother Nan nodded vigorously: "Very good, very good." Then he asked, "How many people are sitting at the table closest to the door?"

The bar is quite big, and Ye Ji was sitting in the innermost part. From him, he could no longer see the seat next to the door, but Ye Ji replied without thinking, "Three people."

Brother Nan: "Fat or thin?"

"All three are on the thin side."

Brother Nan looked excited, his eyes were bright as if they were shining.

Ye Ji looked at him suspiciously.

Brother Nan said excitedly: "I found that you like to observe things. It reminds me of a person. When I first met him in the bar, he was staring at the wine glass. Ha, it's exactly the same as you just now. I and After he got acquainted, he found that his observation ability is quite keen, that kind of..."

He paused, thought for a while, and said, "It's not intentional to observe, but just like his instinct, every time he enters a new environment, he will notice a lot of things in a short time, and he can It is very interesting to infer various information, such as the popularity of bars and restaurants, whether the company’s workload is heavy, whether the employees are treated well, etc., so I wonder if you are also such a person, but the result is still Really."

Ye Ji looked at him calmly, looked at him for a while, and said, "He is your ex-boyfriend." He still used an affirmative sentence.

Brother Nan almost choked on his own saliva: "You..." He looked at Ye Ji dumbfounded, and said, "I really can't talk too much with people like you."

Ye Ji silently sipped his wine, but didn't answer.

Brother Nan was completely unaffected by his indifference, and continued chatting excitedly: "When I was chatting with you online, I thought you looked like him, and I was right in my judgment."

Ye Ji looked into his eyes, and after he finished speaking, he suddenly asked, "Why did you break up?"

Brother Nan was taken aback for a moment.

Ye Ji looked at Brother Nan seriously, he asked such a gossip question, but his expression was so serious, as if he was having a serious meeting.

Brother Nan turned his head and looked at the lively dance floor.

Countless young bodies are writhing, as if there are no worries in the world, only enjoyment.

Brother Nan: "There is no fate." He looked away, raised his glass to drink, but found that the glass was empty, and there were only ice cubes lying lonely at the bottom of the empty glass.

Ye Ji obviously couldn't accept this kind of answer, and stared at him without saying a word.

Brother Nan put down his wine glass and looked at Ye Ji with a helpless smile: "Why are you all so aggressive? Can't you pretend to be stupid occasionally and act stupid?"

Ye Ji still stared at him.

Brother Nan spread his hands helplessly: "Got it, I said it's okay... His family found out about our adultery, and then kept crying and making trouble. Then one day his mother called me to his house and knelt down. Crying in front of me and begging us to break up. I don't know what other people think, anyway, he and I feel that this relationship is really impossible to talk about, and we broke up peacefully after a week."

Ye Ji was a little surprised.

Brother Nan sighed and said: "For homosexuals, family members are always the biggest hurdle. We talked for six years, and I fantasized about marrying him. After being discovered by his parents, we begged them and it made sense. I have said thousands of things, but if you can’t do it, you can’t do it, hey. The game of life is not easy, and being gay will directly start the hard mode, which is really fatal.”

He gulped down all the wine in his glass.

Ye Ji looked at him silently.

Brother Nan turned his head and looked at the people on the dance floor.

Some people were shaking their hips and heads, and some people were hugging each other. It was no different from an ordinary bar, except that they were all men.

Brother Nan blinked.

"Your generation is not bad, and the society's attitude towards homosexuality is becoming more and more positive. In our time, homosexuality was no different from murder and arson. When I came out with my parents, my dad thought I was sick. My brain is abnormal, and he forced me to see a psychiatrist once."

Ye Ji: "What did you think when you found out you were gay?"

Brother Nan thought for a while: "Well... the first time I realized that I was only interested in men, I thought I was the only one in the world. Popularity, and I have no way to know the truth. So from junior high school until I graduated from college, I felt that I was very abnormal." He smiled wryly, "I sometimes feel disgusted."

"Seriously, even today, every time I hear someone say, 'Homosexuality is normal, it's not a mental illness, liking men or women is a personal choice and should be respected', I'm in a daze, It feels like I'm dreaming."

"What about you?" Brother Nan finished speaking, looked at Ye Ji and asked, "Your generation should be quite receptive to this, right?"

Ye Ji: "I'm left-handed."

"Ah?" Brother Nan looked bewildered, not understanding the relationship between left-handers and homosexuality.

Ye Ji: "In human society, right-handers are the majority, and left-handers are the minority."

Brother Nan understood a little bit: "In the past, people thought that left-handers were abnormal, and parents would correct their children when they found out that they wrote with their left hands."

Ye Ji nodded: "Discrimination and prejudice stem from ignorance."

"Wow..." Brother Nan was deeply shocked, "Sao Nian, your comprehension is a bit high."

Ye Ji hummed, and accepted his compliment flatly.

Ye Ji: "I don't think homosexuality is abnormal. I just felt that unfortunately, I became a minority again."
