That night, Yue Yang suddenly called and complained: "Brother, what kind of world are you talking about?"

"What's the matter? Such a sentiment at a young age?" I just finished taking a shower, and I stood in the living room with a wet body.

"I just received the notice that I will be moving to the dormitory tomorrow." He said in a low voice, sounding like he was lying on the bed.

"What dormitory to move?" I was confused.

"Move from the first floor to the fifth floor."

"Ah? Ah... why?"

"A new batch of adult education freshmen came to the old campus. They said they wanted to live on the first floor for fear of poor management. The fifth floor has been vacant. It was originally intended for seniors, but there are not so many people in the school, and the dormitory is not full. Seniors only live on the fourth floor. Now that there are too many people, seniors should move up, and even if we move, we will at most move to the second floor, but the seniors are arrogant and just refuse to move. If they don’t move if they don’t move, then we’re left, isn’t that bullying? Why should we be asked to move to the fifth floor as a freshman? I’m exhausted from climbing the stairs every day.”

"That's it?" I smiled. "Then I'll help you move it tomorrow."

"That's not necessary. It's easy to move the dormitory, and there are not many things. The key is not a problem! It's clear that they are bullying our freshmen in our seniors, juniors, and sophomores! You see, there are not many of them in which year." What a thorn? Maybe someone will have to fight with them after moving out of the dormitory tomorrow."

"You are not allowed to participate!"

"I know, but I'm upset."

"What are you upset about? Isn't it just a higher floor? No one is quiet up there."

"What's the use of being quiet? Boys are lazy. Of course they would rather not climb the stairs. Besides, it's so convenient to climb the windows on the first floor. Who dares to climb up to the fifth floor? If you fall down, you will be disabled if you don't die." .”

"You have the idea of ​​being ignorant. If you have a door, you can't climb through the window? You won't be like those dawdling students who go to Internet cafes all night, right? If you dare, I will break your leg!"

"Brother, I dare not, don't worry. I just complain for others..."

"Stop worrying about it! Have you packed everything?"

"It's been more than an hour to clean up, and my back hurts."

"You really don't need me to help you move tomorrow?"

"No, Ling Guo said that he asked a few people from juniors and seniors to help move, who told them not to move? It can't be cheap for them."

I smiled: "My kid has never been better."

"Just be nice to me." Yue Yang said happily.

I choked for a moment, and after a long time I said, "Didn't I tell you to have less contact with him?"

"He's pretty nice."

"Is...is he in the dormitory now?"

"No, I went out to find someone to help move the dormitory."

"Ah, Yue Yang, let me tell you, it's not bad to beat this kid, but he's quite complicated. It's not good if you get in touch with him too much. Listen to me, the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water. Don't mess around. Good buddies are like glue, pay attention to keep your distance."

"What's with what? If you are a good buddy, you can't be gluey. If you are gluey, you are not a good buddy. Actually, I really like Ling Guo, but I still want to be gluey if he is a good buddy. Feelings, I haven't thought about it yet. Brother...you say...if I..."

"Stop!" I interrupted him, thinking of him secretly looking at calcium tablets gave me a headache: "Don't be presumptuous, you and him are classmates, roommates, not even good buddies, okay? You want to be like glue? You Thinking about it again, I won't give you a penny this semester, so I'll call my mother and ask her to cut your food!"

"Don't, don't, I'll just say it, don't take it seriously!" Yue Yang immediately softened.

"Don't let me think about it!" I sternly warned.

"Ah, make sure you don't think about it, I'm going to sleep."

"Okay, go to sleep."

After hanging up Yue Yang's phone call, my heart began to churn.It seems that this little fool Yue Yang really likes men, as to whether he will like Ling Guo is not the point of the question, the point is that no matter who he likes, he will not be able to pass the test at home.If Dad knew that he was like me, I really don't know how he would react, would he faint from anger?Do you want to beat Yue Yang into a cripple?Of course, I have to be added along the way.

In fact, I'm not afraid that my father will blame me again. Anyway, it's already like this. I don't want him to feel that I have done something wrong to the Yue family. If Yue Yang is also gay, I will feel that I am the culprit. It's already sad enough, and I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it if I live with this sense of guilt.There is a limit to anyone's ability to bear. My heart is not made of steel, and it has a fragile side...

I didn't sleep well that night, and I was still in a trance when I went to work the next day, until after three o'clock in the afternoon, Ling Guo called me.

When I saw his phone number, I was stunned for a long time, but my mind was blank.

The bell rang for a long time, and I finally answered the phone, but the voice was a little weak: "Hello..."

"What's the matter? What stimulated you to be so decadent?" He heard it.

"Nothing, what's the matter?"

"Tell you that after moving to the dormitory, Wang Yan and the others are still next door to us..."

"And then?" I suddenly became energetic, and almost forgot about the character Wang Yan. The tall, rich and handsome man I once warned to stay away from Yueyang, he is also a time bomb!

"Then your younger brother went to play with him, and he was cold to your younger brother. Yue Yang got very angry and fought with him."

"What?" I almost growled.

"Don't be nervous." Ling Guo hurriedly comforted me: "It's okay, I wasn't injured, I just pushed and pushed a few times, Wang Yan said some ugly words, and Yue Yang cried angrily."

"Crying? Yueyang...will he still cry?" As soon as I heard that, my heart immediately became sour.

"He won't let me tell you, but I think you should know about it."

"exactly."

"But I also have a few words to say."

"You said."

"You should understand the truth that the more you don't let a person know the secrets of an unknown world, the more he wants to know? I think Yue Yang is like this now. He himself is not sure if he really likes men. He and Wang Yan include What is the feeling between him and me, he needs to understand. But you have been hindering him from understanding. The more this is the case, the less he understands. To be serious, there may be a very terrible situation if this continues. as a result of……"

He didn't go on, I had to ask him: "What consequences?"

"Some ignorant people don't dare to try it with the people around them, so they will... go to a stranger outside to try it, in case... I mean in case, if he goes somewhere he shouldn't go, with a stranger What if the man tried?"

"You mean... a one-night stand?" I asked nervously, never having thought about this possibility.

"Basically. Yue Yang is a very good person, and I like him quite a bit, but don't get me wrong that it's not that kind of liking. I just don't want him to be hurt, and I don't want him to wander into the darkness in a daze."

"Ling over..."

"Ok?"

"Thank you." I said gratefully.

He smiled: "I'm really not used to you saying thank you so seriously all of a sudden."

"Don't give me some sunshine to make it shine! I'm just being polite. Who told me to be Yue Yang's brother?"

"Ah, let me just say this, think about it for yourself. Actually, if I were you, I don't know how to face this matter, but haven't you wasted at least ten years of time than me? You have to Understand better than me?"

"What can you understand after wasting it all?" I couldn't help laughing: "It's not easy for you to speak a few words seriously, so I won't care about the last naked/naked/naked irony with you."

"This is the first time you don't care about me, right? It really made me feel like I was punched in the cotton pile. You said that it would be great if you did this often. It makes people feel soft, warm and caring ..."

"Are you writing poetry? I don't have time to listen to your bitterness. I will think about what to do about Yue Yang, but before I figure it out, you should keep a proper distance from him."

"Oh...you are really hopeless." He hung up the phone immediately.

Regarding the fight between Yue Yang and Wang Yan, I didn't ask him, just like what Ling Guo said, I should think about it.On the one hand, I want him to live according to my father's expectations, and on the other hand, I don't want him to go against his own wishes. Dad and Yue Yang don't matter which is more important. They are both my close relatives. I don't want my father to be hit again. I also don't want Yue Yang to live in pain.How should I deal with the fact that Yue Yang also likes men, I can't help being a little confused.

During lunch the next day, Lin Yadong came into my office again.

"What's wrong with you this morning? You look so bad?"

"It's okay." I don't want to tell him about it, I really don't know what to say.

"It must be something, but you don't want to say it. Let me tell you something happy. Our Sihua Tang Ming is getting married."

"Really?" I was taken aback.Tang Ming was a trainee lawyer recruited when the company was established. She obtained a formal license and became a real lawyer in less than a year. She is a very capable girl who is only 25 this year.

"She is the first employee in the company to get married. Should we show it?"

"That's necessary. I'll pack five thousand, how much will you pack?"

"You are the boss, five thousand is not too much, and I will only have two thousand at most. If there is too much, I am afraid that her husband will be suspicious."

"Where is her husband?"

"You know it, Fuhao Ma."

"What?" I was so surprised that I almost threw the lunch box in my hand.

Lin Yadong smiled: "You didn't expect that, did you? This little girl is really scheming. When I divorced Ma Fuhao, she often helped me. I met Ma Fuhao a few times. Who knows that the two of them It’s time to keep it in the dark.”

"Is Fuhao Ma reliable?"

"It's not bad, he's pretty decent among rich people."

"It's none of our business who Tang Mingai marries. It's just that Rich Ma fell in love with her by asking our firm for help in a lawsuit. If things don't go well in the future, she will definitely leave the company."

"Don't think so far." He patted me on the shoulder: "Iron camps, flowing soldiers, who can work with you for a lifetime?"

"I hear what you mean, you have to leave me sooner or later?"

"This is what I said, as if I had some premeditated plan. I am handy with you, and I definitely didn't think about leaving, unless you don't need me anymore, or... one day I am tired and want to find a place to hide stand up."

"The matter between you and Hu Xin... is it okay now?"

"That's it. As soon as I discuss it with him, he will avoid it. Wait a little longer."

"Oh..." I sighed, and walked out with an empty lunch box. "Stop talking, I'll go out and have a look."

In the hall outside, everyone gathered around Tang Ming and listened to her talk. I thought she was talking about her getting married, but I didn't expect that she was talking about constellations. "I'm telling you, don't believe me! If I didn't know he was a Virgo, I wouldn't have looked at him more. But Capricorn and Virgo are a natural pair. Once they meet by chance, then look for it." It will last forever..."

"Tang Ming, what did you just say about Capricorns and Virgos?" I interrupted her, because after hearing what she said, I suddenly remembered that Ling Guo seemed to have told me that he was a Capricornus.

"Brother Yue, are you still interested in constellations? Can't you tell?" Tang Ming looked at me in surprise.

"I'm not interested, but I have a friend who is a Capricorn. We quarrel when we meet, so I want to know from you if we are really at odds."

"Capricorns are most at odds with Leo, Libra and Gemini. What is your zodiac sign, Brother Yue?"

"Aries."

"That's not a conflict. These two constellations are just complementary. If both parties give in to each other, it will be easy to get together. Moreover, Capricorn has a special attraction to Aries!"

"Really?" I smiled: "Aren't Capricorns the most incompatible with Virgos?"

"Who told you that? Capricorn and Virgo are a perfect combination, the most harmonious couple in the world, they only envy mandarin ducks and not immortals!"

"Understood." I turned around to throw the lunch box, and couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "You brat is playing with me!" It turned out that the one who said on Christmas Eve that he was incompatible with Capricornus was Virgo, and he deliberately said irony to lure me, this kid You must have had crooked thoughts about me since then, right?
