After the humble spare tire set the car overturned

Things went much smoother than Tan Lie imagined.

He had never expected that Chaoci would really agree, because he understood Chaoci's defense better than anyone else.It was a high wall that others could not overcome, and Chaoci himself could not get out of it.

No one can be unimpeded in front of this wall, including Zhao Yi.

In his previous life, Tan Lie made such a mistake.He thought that Zhao Yi was the only one who could walk into Chaoci's heart defense, the only person who could heal Chaoci.So even though his heart was full of jealousy and reluctance, he still chose to leave, taking it for granted that this would make Chaoci happy. Later, he stood in the yard, squatting on the ground and staring at the tombstone surrounded by wisteria, as if he finally wanted to pass.

No one can take for granted his salvation.

Zhao Yi led him to get rid of the situation where he was bullied by others and food and clothing were problematic.But despite this, Chaoci's childhood was still far from beautiful.His mother gave birth to him and died due to dystocia, and his extremely selfish father and mean stepmother would not bring him any affection, only harshness and chilling.Zhao Yi is Chao Ci's only friend, but when he faces this friend, even though he looks very comfortable, he is actually cautious, lest Zhao Yi leave him.As for those friends around Zhao Yi, their relationship with Chaoci is just the result of Chaoci's painstaking efforts.

The insecurities suffered in childhood can affect a person's life, and it will take a lifetime to make up for it.This is even more so for Chao Ci, because his childhood never gave him any sense of security. It was the same when he met Zhao Yi, and it was the same after meeting him.

Zhao Yi may be really important to him, but not getting Zhao Yi can cure everything.Even his love for Zhao Yi may be just a distorted sustenance, not necessarily true love for Zhao Yi.So when he was with Zhao Yi, he was always out of self-doubt and denial—he might never have thought that he could really be with Zhao Yi before.

His crisis was never because Zhao Yi didn't love him, but because of his never-ending sense of insecurity and self-denial.

Therefore, if you want to really help him and heal him, you can only really care about him, and constantly invest in care and patience.This kind of investment is even endless, it is a very stupid way, but it is the only way, and Tan Lie is willing to do so.

So Tan Lie had already made preparations for a long-term war, and he was very happy to find that Chaoci's attitude had loosened a lot.Not only for the change of Chaoci's attitude towards him, but also for Chaoci itself.As long as he can walk out of the haze with Chao Ci, even if Chao Ci cannot see that the hands supporting him are from Tan Lie, it doesn't matter.

Tan Lie confessed his love to Chaoci, but he never thought that Chaoci would really agree.He just wanted to make an announcement, and then he could change his way of getting along with Chao Ci.After all, if Chao Ci keeps treating him as a friend, this dull kid may never realize his emotions.

But Chaoci agreed.

Even if he raised his face and said to Tan Lie arrogantly: "Let's say yes first, just try it. You are not allowed to control me, but make me happy!"

Tan Lie laughed: "Did you get me an internship period? I have to work without salary, and fulfill my boyfriend's obligations without the title of boyfriend."

"Then do you like to do it or not?" Chao Ci was upset by what he said, turned his face and said.

"Damn, why don't you dare?" Tan Lie walked over with a smile, pressed his shoulders and turned his face around, "I don't know how to take such a big benefit when it falls on me, am I a fool?"

Anyone can hear the implication of such words, and Chao Ci couldn't help showing a smile.

Even such an unreasonable condition is a great benefit in Tan Lie's view.

Thus began the "trial period" of Tan Lie and his little boyfriend.

Let's talk about Zhao Yi.

He has had a rough few months.In the past, Chao Ci got along with him day and night and was inseparable, but not long after Tan Lie came, Chao Ci was inseparable. Except for the time in the dormitory, he didn't even have time to speak to him.

He could feel that Chao Ci was avoiding him vaguely, and this feeling had been vaguely foreshadowed after he and Nan Xiaojin were together, but Zhao Yi didn't notice it at the time.When the current situation became extremely obvious, he traced it carefully and found out.

Even if Zhao Yi went to get along with Chaoci interestingly, Chaoci avoided him by himself, and that bastard Tan Lie stuck to him every day and took him everywhere.Getting along is a matter between two people. If one person doesn't mean it, no matter how deliberate the other person is, the relationship will be difficult.

Zhao Yi panicked several times, and almost couldn't help but want to go directly to Chao Ci to clarify.But there's always a damned sane thing stopping him: Speak clearly?What to say?

Could it be that Chao Ci stays with Tan Lie every day, is he jealous?

Even if these hidden emotions are placed in the friendship of girls, it is difficult to express, let alone boys who always pretend to be careless.Everyone gets along with fate, no one cares about these things like him.

So he couldn't say it.I can only watch that the relationship between Chaoci and Tan Lie is getting closer and closer, and even Chaoci followed Tan Lie back to country D during the holidays. You know, Chaoci used to spend holidays with Zhao Yi.

When this semester started and found out that the math teacher was not Tan Lie, Zhao Yi was almost uncontrollably relaxed and happy.

He has also investigated Tan Lie in the past few months.In fact, there is no need to check much. It is not a trivial matter for the successor of the Davis family to come to China. You can find out after a little inquiry.

How could such a rich man suddenly come to their school to be a teacher?Thinking of Chaoci saying that he and Tan Lie have known each other online for several years, then this guy is only here for Chaoci.He still has such a big company under him, how long can he really stay here?

Sure enough, he left.

Zhao Yi couldn't help being happy, and even Nan Xiaojin and Lin Yanchen sent him a message saying that it was rare for everyone to get together at the beginning of school, and he directly threw it into his ears.After school, I went to Chaoci's seat and asked him, "Come to stay at my house tonight? You haven't come for a whole vacation, and my mother still misses you."

"Auntie Lin also made your favorite fish head tofu soup today."

He stood next to Chaoci's seat, tall and tall, even if the sun was not dim in the evening, it was blocked by most of it in an instant.

He didn't even have many questions when he asked this sentence, because he hardly thought that Chaoci would refuse.

But Chao Ci frowned, and said awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I already have an appointment with someone tonight..."

He was only with Tan Lie yesterday, and as a freshly baked "trial period" couple, of course it was impossible to be left out in the cold from the start.Tan Lie is no longer a teacher at their school, so he pays more attention to showing his face in front of Chaoci, and even drags Chaoci to visit the aquarium at night.

Chaoci has never been to the aquarium.

This kind of sticky place is not within the range of options for boys to travel. It’s fine if they were taken by their parents to play a few times when they were young. After they grow up and can choose where to play by themselves, they will not go to this kind of place again. Talk about a boring place - unless you have a girlfriend.

It's not that Chaoci thinks this place is boring. In fact, when he was a child, he saw that all the classmates around him were taken to the aquarium by their parents. He still had some extremely hidden yearning for the aquarium in his heart.But he has always been used to closing himself up, even if it is not troublesome to go to the aquarium alone, it will not have any bad effects, but he never went.

And this morning when Tan Lie sent a message to tell him that he had purchased the tickets for the aquarium that was built in City B two months ago, he said with disgust, "Why do you always like to go to this kind of place where little girls go?"On the one hand, I couldn't help but jump for joy.

Hearing Chaoci's refusal, Zhao Yi's expression turned cold almost instantly.

"With whom? Tan Lie?" he asked.

"En." Chaoci didn't feel anything, and nodded naturally.

Zhao Yi was about to say something, but the words finally came to his lips, but were swallowed again.

Chaoci couldn't detect Zhao Yi's thoughts. With a stern face and a smile at the end of his eyes, he went to the aquarium with Tan Lie all night.Tan Lie also came out with a SLR. He has always been a master in photography. Even if Chaoci didn't come out to play, he still likes to take pictures. He took a lot of photos this evening.

Taking photos with chubby penguins, looking at the camera in a long tunnel, dodging with a cone at a loss...all of these were frozen in film.

It was a little late, and Chao Ci simply slept in a residence that Chao's family bought for him.

When Chaoci fell asleep that night, the corners of his mouth were curled into a smile, and when he left for school in the morning, he saw Tan Lie's car waiting at the door.

Chao Ci was wondering why this guy came again so early in the morning, when he saw a small kraft paper bag in his hand, which looked scribbled and inexplicably girlish.Chaoci trembled, and opened a pair of peach blossom eyes: "What?"

"The photos taken yesterday have been developed." Tan Lie said, patted the steering wheel, "Sit on, I'll take you there, just in time for your driver to take a rest."

Chao Ci didn't hesitate too much, greeted the driver and sat in the co-pilot.When the car was driving, he couldn't help opening the paper bag, took out the photos inside, and placed them on his knees one by one.

It's really nice.

The background, light and shadow, composition, and the laughter of the two.

If it is not necessary, Chao Ci will rarely post on Moments.Thinking about it, how can a person like him who is used to closing himself off like to use Moments to share his joy in life.

But today he couldn't help but post these photos on Moments.

There is no accompanying text, but this is unprecedented for Chaoci's rigid circle of friends.

Zhao Yi posted to this circle of friends, staring at Chao Ci and Tan Lie with bright smiles on it, his heart ached densely for a moment.
