imaginary rival

"Do you see ashes on my back?" Yan An looked back as he walked.

"Well," Jiang Shiyu patted him on the back twice, "It's gone now."

Yan An stood on tiptoe and pinched his ears, as if he had been pulled into the sun for two hours. His face was red and hot, and he didn't dare to purse his lips. It seemed that his lips could still feel Jiang Shiyu. There was a strange feeling Heart palpitations.

He turned his head to look at Jiang Shiyu, this aggressive person didn't blush at all.

It was strange to say that Jiang Shiyu's whiteness was as if someone had covered him with a film. Summer was almost over and he was still so white, and he didn't blush just after kissing.

too weird.

As Yan An walked forward, he glanced at Jiang Shiyu from the corner of his eye from time to time, and suddenly saw that the roots of his ears were very red, and his mood jumped up, as if he had discovered something serious, he laughed twice.

Jiang Shiyu didn't know what he was enjoying, so he started to join in the music without asking.

Before walking out of this small path, the two held hands, and the backs of their hands rubbed against each other, and it was unclear who moved first, anyway, they shook their hands, and their palms stuck together, which was different from all the holding hands before.

Before, no matter how much he pinched or pulled Jiang Shiyu's hand, Yan An's heart would not have much ups and downs, but ever since Jiang Shiyu was labeled as a "boyfriend", Yan An always felt that he did not care about anything. Enough to make his heart beat faster.

"Go back and have a party," Jiang Shiyu said, "I'm a little sleepy."

"Okay." Yan An replied immediately.

The two walked back to the classroom slowly. There were already quite a few people lying on their stomachs in the classroom at the moment. They walked over quietly, lying on the table, and had to use breathless voices if they wanted to say a few words.

Yan An was lying on the table, facing Jiang Shiyu, and Jiang Shiyu was also facing him. It stands to reason that they only confirmed their relationship in the morning, and they should really want to see each other. It is normal for them to face each other during lunch break.

But Jiang Shiyu and Yan An looked at each other and started laughing. They didn't know what they were laughing at. Anyway, they wanted to laugh so much that they couldn't sleep at all, so they turned their heads to face each other and slept.

Lying down in a daze at noon, there was gradually movement in the classroom. Yan An opened his eyes and yawned. He straightened up and looked at the podium. Old Liu was standing on the podium, probably about to say something.

But when Yan An saw Lao Liu at this moment, the first thing he recalled in his mind was that Lao Liu asked him yesterday if he was in a relationship.

How nice it would be for Lao Liu to ask today.

If I asked him today, I would be able to tell him in an open and honest manner, and talk about it.

Although I couldn't tell who he was talking to, it was.

Yan An looked at Old Liu happily for a while, and Jiang Shiyu's voice came from the side: "This look, tsk tsk."

"What's wrong?" Yan An turned his head and looked over. Jiang Shiyu was still lying on the table, but his head had already been turned around. After taking off his glasses, there were two small pink marks on the bridge of his nose, so cute.

"Those who don't know can think that you like Teacher Liu." Jiang Shiyu took out the water in the desk and took a sip.

"Don't you know who I like?" Yan An whispered happily.

Jiang Shiyu was amused, staring at the obvious curve of Lao Liu's mouth, Yan An also became amused.

Lao Liu waited for all the students to get up before he patted the desk and signaled everyone to be quiet. Before he could say what he wanted to say, he glanced down and stared in the direction of Yan An and the others, and asked hesitantly: "I Are your clothes on the wrong side or are your pants torn?"

"Not at all!" Chang Ze shouted from below, "Don't worry!"

"Then you two, don't look at others, Yan Anjiang Shiyu, just you two." Old Liu stood up straight, looking at them with a smile, "What's the fun?"

"You forgot to take your medicine." Xie Lanlan added slowly.

Yan An and Jiang Shiyu lowered their heads at the same time, and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, holding back their own smiles.

Old Liu unscrewed the thermos cup and took a sip of tea, and said something about the school's sports meeting next week.

Although the sports meeting has nothing to do with the third year of high school, they still got a short class time to go out and watch it. It sounds like a prison release. Work harder than anyone else.

However, after so long since school started, Yan An has gradually adapted to such a high-pressure environment. After all, when everyone is studying hard, it is a very quick thing for him to integrate into it.

There are so many homeworks in the third year of high school that people want to scream and are afraid that screaming will waste time and energy. On the way home after school, they are more and more afraid to kill time, walking as fast as they can.

Xie Lanlan was still with Sun Ke today, Yan An and Jiang Shiyu went home together, they stopped buying any snacks on the way, and took the time to walk towards home.

"Go back first," Yan An said, carrying his schoolbag, "too much homework today."

"Well," Jiang Shiyu nodded, "If you don't know the question, send me a video, and I will answer it anytime."

"Okay." Yan An nodded.

"Goodbye." Jiang Shiyu said.

"Bye." Yan An took a step back and looked up at Jiang Shiyu.

"Let's go." Jiang Shiyu laughed.

"Goodbye." Yan An continued to take a step back.

"Get lost." Jiang Shiyu put his hands in his pockets, wanting to see what else Yan An could come up with.

"Sayou Lala~" Yan An waved his arms.

"If you don't want to leave, follow me upstairs," Jiang Shiyu looked at him helplessly and amusedly, "Or should I take you back?"

"No, I'm just expressing my reluctance." Yan An continued to wave his arms.

Jiang Shiyu had no choice but to raise his arm and shake it in a small arc following his rhythm. Finally, Yan An seemed satisfied, and turned towards his home: "Let's go."

"En." Jiang Shiyu responded.

Yan An didn't make any more tricks, and left obediently. Jiang Shiyu stared at his back for a while, then turned and went upstairs.

Too many things happened that day. He saw Yan An crying, Yan An smiling, seeing him blushing and being silly like he didn't take medicine, and they got a boyfriend for each other.

After this excitement passes, what will be waiting for Yan An?

Jiang Shiyu opened the door and entered the room. After putting away his schoolbag and everything else, he took out his phone and turned the volume up to the maximum so that Yan An would not be able to hear him when he was playing a video or sending a message. .

It was not only Yan An who was afraid of this relationship, but also Jiang Shiyu.

But what Jiang Shiyu was afraid of was obviously different from what Yan An was afraid of.

How long can this relationship last?

Like this invisible and intangible thing, how long can it last?

He used to think that it would be too unreliable to dare to make a life decision because of feelings, how can a relationship last forever, but...is it too early to think about these things on the first day of dating?

Forget it.

Jiang Shiyu took the draft paper on the side and started to calculate the problems on it. After calculating for a long time, his mind was in a mess. When he took a closer look, he did not know when many words of Yan An were written on the draft paper.

Jiang Shiyu twitched the corners of his mouth helplessly. He was about to turn the page of the draft paper, but after thinking about it, he turned it back, took a photo of the line with Yan An's name and sent it to Yan An.

The news was quickly answered, and Yan An sent him a voice message, saying: "You know, brother Xiaoyu, writing the name of the person you like on a book or draft paper, I didn't do it when I was in elementary school. gone."

"Who did you like when you were in elementary school?" Jiang Shiyu replied to him.

Yan An sent a row of ellipses, and replied after a while: Your thinking is so fucking clear.

- so-so.

- Have you started your homework now?

-Yeah, I'll make some noodles later for dinner.

- so pathetic.

-right.

- My mother is cooking in the kitchen, and I will take a picture of it later for you to have a look.

-...Then I thank you.

Yan An couldn't help laughing at the message Jiang Shiyu sent.

Holding the phone and chatting for a while, Jiang Shiyu said that he was going to make instant noodles, so Yan An put down the phone and turned his attention to the various homework that he had already set up.

The sound of Dad coming in after get off work came from outside the house, probably going directly to the kitchen, and the footsteps never sounded again.

After a while, footsteps sounded again, Little Binghai raised his head and glanced at the door. Dad opened the door and shouted inside: "It's time to eat!"

"Hey!" Yan An dropped his pen, "Here we come!"

"Hurry up," Dad said, "how old is your homework?"

"It's okay." Yan An walked out of the room with his mobile phone.

The dishes my mother cooked today were very rich. Yan An took two photos and sent them to Jiang Shiyu. The sound of the photo was turned off. My mother heard it and asked, "Did you send it to Moments?"

"Send it to Jiang Shiyu." Yan An said.

"Has he eaten yet?" Mom continued to ask.

"His mother is on a business trip, and he is making instant noodles at home." Yan An patted the plate of meat in front of him again, "greed him up."

"Tell him to come and eat together." Dad said.

Yan An's hand that clicked send paused, pursed his lips and said nothing, his mother didn't notice his pause, and echoed: "Yes, you asked him to come over, anyway, it's not far away."

"He's almost finished eating, next time." Yan An lowered his head and put his phone aside, "Call him next time."

Mom said a few more words, but Yan An didn't hear clearly.

After a day of excitement passed, he suddenly began to face up to the issue of his relationship with Jiang Shiyu.

There are a lot of messy thoughts in my mind, and a scene pops up in a while, all about the future, the scene where he and Jiang Shiyu were opposed by their family members after they came out, so they forgot everything.

No.

Yan An took a deep breath.

Don't imagine the future too much. Before he really reaches the point where he has to come out, any imagination he does is useless.

What's more... just like what Jiang Shiyu said, his mother may not become like Aunt Wang. He will have more ways out when he grows up, and he will get better. All the hesitation and entanglement now are useless.

Yan An returned to the room after eating, clicked on the chat interface and sent Jiang Shiyu a kissing emoji.

There was no reply after sending it. Yan An sent several times in a row before Jiang Shiyu slowly typed a row of ellipses.

"What do you mean?" Yan An made a voice.

Jiang Shiyu was silent for a while, and gave him a red heart back.

No.

what does it mean?

This is how long the relationship is determined!Not even a day!

Why did you start being so fucking perfunctory?

Yan An frowned, the mess in his mind hadn't been sorted out yet, when Xie Lanlan's head suddenly jumped out.

- can you two chat privately

Yan An was stunned for a while, then raised his eyes to look. At this moment, the window for his conversation was the group chat of the three of them.

There were two notifications on the top, and he exited to take a look, and it was indeed Jiang Shiyu who sent him the message.

- You posted it in the group.

-……Hello?

Yan An was silent for a while, and sent a video to Jiang Shiyu.

As if sensing something, Little Hail jumped onto Yan An's leg, and continued to jump onto the table.

"Stupid." Jiang Shiyu said succinctly after connecting to the video, with a smile on his lips.

Seeing his smile, Yan An felt a lot more at ease in his heart, and said, "Why don't you send me a selfie of yourself?"

"We see each other every day, you still want to save my photo?" Jiang Shiyu said with a smile.

"Send it," Yan An sighed, and whispered, "I'm at home...a little flustered."

Jiang Shiyu paused for a moment, his expression became more serious immediately, and he said, "I don't have any photos...does my ID pass?"

"...Ah," Yan An looked at him, "What's the matter?"

"Blue background." Jiang Shiyu said.

"All right." Yan An said.

"Then I'll bring it to you at school tomorrow." Jiang Shiyu said.

Yan An thought about it, and thought it was a bit funny. The first thing Jiang Shiyu gave him after falling in love was his ID photo, which was amazing.

As soon as he smiled, Jiang Shiyu followed suit, and the atmosphere was much more relaxed. Yan An felt less flustered, as if his unsteady heart was caught, he stared at the screen for a while, and said, "Jiang Shiyu .”

As soon as Jiang Shiyu heard Yan An calling his name, as if his DNA had moved, he immediately replied: "I really like you."

"Fuck," Yan An said, "I didn't ask that."

"...Oh," Jiang Shiyu shook his head, probably fixed the phone, "What do you want to ask?"

"I just want to say... I like you very much, and I won't retreat after making this decision," Yan An whispered, rubbing his hands on Xiao Binghai's body, "You must not retreat."

As he spoke, he paused, and before Jiang Shiyu answered, he followed up: "Even if you retreat, I will drag you back."

"Okay," Jiang Shiyu changed his pen and said softly, "As long as you don't leave, I won't leave."

Yan An pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, not as happy as in the daytime, but he still felt relieved.

The two of them finished their homework and dialed again when they were lying on the bed. Yan An was lying flat, holding up his mobile phone and looking at the ceiling. They chatted a lot all night, and finally got sleepy, and the answering voice became a little vague. Jiang Shiyu As if lying next to him, he noticed it all at once, and said, "Go to sleep."

"Well," Yan An replied, "See you tomorrow."

Jiang Shiyu hummed and said softly, "Good night."
