The sun was just right, white doves were flying, and after a gentle love song was sung, everyone in the square applauded,

Tang Chao sang for half an hour. During the period, someone asked for a song, and he would cooperate with anyone who could sing.

The equipment boy's hat was placed upside down in front of the microphone, and someone would come and throw a hundred-dollar bill into it from time to time.From the perspective of Helian Temple, you can see a string of numbers written with a black oil-based pen on the corners of some put down red notes, probably mobile phone numbers.

There are also some people who don't have cash with them, so they rummage through the things they have with them and give them out as small gifts.

Keychains, buns, decorative rings... A little girl with twin ponytails who looked like she was in high school had her hair untied, and her permed, slightly curly long hair was loose and fluffy.Like some kind of small animal, she held a pair of strawberry scrunchies in her hands, and shyly walked over to put them in the hat.

After the end, the hat became heavy, and the presents could hardly fit.

Tang Chao gave all the cash to his younger brother, and took away the gift himself, as well as notes with different handwriting mixed in it.

He Lianci stood there waiting for him. He took the note and counted it together with Renwo in the corner of the square—there were seventeen notes in total.

"There should have been more." Tang Chao bent his eyes, his face not lacking in complacency: "But I didn't take it."

He Lianci knew that he was talking about the ones written directly on the banknotes, so he looked at the other party for a long while: "So, what are your requests?"

Tang Chao turned on the phone screen: "Brother, it's already two o'clock."

Ji Weiqiu is on the plane at three o'clock in the afternoon.

"It's too late to get to the airport now." He and He Lianci looked at each other: "It's not good to make people wait for a long time, why don't you send a message to tell him not to go."

Helianci came here on a motorcycle, so he had time to go to the airport.

But he didn't react to Tang Chao's words, and said calmly: "I don't have his cell phone number."

A smile slowly appeared on Tang Chao's face, and with a swipe of his fingertips, he clicked into the address book: "I have it."

"...Don't think too much, Huang Mao and I want it. Huang Mao asked Lin Ke'er for it."

He looked at He Lianci's changing eyes, smiled, and handed over the mobile phone: "The time is just right. Brother, you can use my mobile phone to send."

He Lianci withdrew his gaze from Tang Chao's face, and really took the phone.

After he and Ji Weiqiu broke up, they lost contact. The other party went to the capital to study and changed a new mobile phone card.Mutual friends never get involved in their affairs, if not for this accident, they would become two parallel lines that no longer intersect.

But now, there is not much difference.

Pressing the unfamiliar number with your fingertips, Helianci sent a message.

Only two words, simple and simple, conveyed the meaning of Tang Chao's exchange for a request: "Don't go."

The accident is corrected, Ji Weiqiu has a bright future, and He Lianci is still living his chic life in Z City—they will never see each other again.

After sending the message, Helian Temple was about to exit.Tang Chao suddenly leaned over, his lowered head touched Helianci's shoulder, the sweet lychee fragrance was like a soft feather falling from a white dove, wobbly past the tip of Helianci's nose.

Under the eyes of Helian Temple, he opened the keyboard with his finger, and added two words to the message of "not going" and sent it:

"Don't go."

"Fuck off."

He Lianci saw his new message clearly, the corners of his lips raised and then lowered, the brief smile flashed away, Tang Chao had disappeared when he raised his head.

He Lianci asked him: "So fierce?"

Tang Chao shrugged his shoulders: "He doesn't know what's good, he's selfish, and he's still a coward."

He smiled and said, "Brother, I'm different from him."

Ji Weiqiu left, but Tang Chao never received a reply on his mobile phone. He didn't know what the other party was feeling when he saw these two messages before he left.

Lin Keer also left, she must have said something to Huang Mao before she left, Huang Mao has been sluggish since Saturday.It seems that he had a quarrel with Xiaojun. He Lianci met them when he went to the parking lot, but he had to avoid them because of the delicate atmosphere between the two.

Tang Chao accompanied Tang Chao to go there twice, he didn't hide, he was very happy to watch the excitement.But when he was stared at by his insightful eyes, the ones hiding were Huangmao and the others.

This day, Tianhe Lianci went to the afternoon class after lunch break, and received a "report" message from Tang Dynasty on his mobile phone.

Now Tang Chao will tell him where he goes every day. This is Tang Chao's spontaneous behavior, and it also makes Helianci develop the habit of keeping track of his itinerary.

Today's reported location made He Lianci frowned.

Tang Dynasty: 10:00, swagger.

The ten o'clock that Tang Chao said was of course ten o'clock in the evening - when he was at home alone, he often slept until noon, and Tang Chao probably woke up not long after the afternoon classes at Helian Temple.

He Lianci replied to him: How many people?

Tang Chao: If someone can accompany me... two.

There is a pitiful expression at the end of the sentence, (*'へ'*).

He Lianci ignored it: still want to be beaten?

Tang Dynasty: (*'へ'*)

Not long ago, Tang Chao was blocked by Cheng Zhe when he went to ostentatiously alone. That time he went to celebrate the boss's birthday.Before I went, I joked that I had to burn my membership card, saying that I was chasing the Crane Temple, and I would never go again next time.

Everyone remembers this matter, no matter what the reason is, He Lianci couldn't hold back his shock when he saw this time and place. In his opinion, this is a trouble in Tang Dynasty.

He Lianci didn't return and put his phone in his pocket.

But there were four classes in the afternoon, and he glanced at his phone purposefully during the three breaks.Even though the phone vibrates, it will remind you when there is a message, but this afternoon the black body is quiet and there is no intention of moving.

The chat history with Tang Chao still stays on the other party's expression. He Lianci has seen this expression several times when he opened the chat window back and forth, and the originally cute and pitiful face has become annoying.

His attitude was quite obvious, and he didn't want Tang Chao to go.Tang Chao saw it, but didn't say much, just let him hang out.

Unable to explain clearly, He Lianci's heart was on fire.It was only a small ball at first, but with the silence of the mobile phone all afternoon, the fire became bigger and bigger, burning his calm heart with long-lost irritability.

After school, He Lianci pressed his forehead with his fingertips, lifted his shoulders and wrapped himself up.

With a cold face, tall and long-legged, he looks like a particularly tall and straight sentry tower, breaking through the dense crowd of people after class and leaving the teaching building.

As soon as he went out, he was startled, because the person who bothered him happened to be standing leisurely against the load-bearing wall, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

He Lianci stood still, and the people who came out from behind him naturally separated to the two sides, and then closed in front of him again.The two of them were separated by heavy heads, and looked at each other in the gap.

Tang Chao smiled, and trotted towards the Helian Temple in front of the crowd.

He ran closer and grabbed Helianci's hand.Then he pulled him along the direction of the crowd, and returned to the place where he stood before.

Leaving the school gate downstairs, the two stood by the wall.He Lianci finally spoke and asked.

"Why are you here?"

Tang Chao leaned on his shoulder unceremoniously: "Who told you to pretend that you don't understand me, I can only invite you in person."

He Lianci lowered his eyes: "You don't have to go."

The black head moved under his eyelids, with a small hair twist on it, and it rubbed against his shoulder socket twice willfully.

Tang Chao raised his head and put his arms around his neck: "If you accompany me, I can go, right?"

Tang Chao said that he would never go to the bar alone again, because he wanted to chase after the Crane Temple.What's more, he suffered a lot last time.

But if it's with Crane Temple, it doesn't matter.

He Lianci was troubled. In the final analysis, Tang Chao didn't invite him first, but decided to go first.And even when He Lianci didn't nod and said he wanted to accompany him, he still acted as if he had to go.

Seeing Tang Chao, his anger has already gone down by half.

He Lianci raised his eyebrows: "Why should I accompany you?"

Tang Chao asked: "Aren't you with me?"

Crane Temple: "I won't accompany you."

"Okay." Tang Chao loosened his arms and left his arms: "Then there is no other way."

He said, "Then I..."

He Lianci stared at him quietly.

"Then I have no choice but to not go!"

Tang Chao raised the corners of his lips, and stuffed his hand into his palm.A well-proportioned hand opened, and the fingertips forcibly inserted into He Lianci's fingers, interlocking with his fingers.

"I'll accompany you to dinner, you have to take me to play somewhere else."

He Lianci also laughed after all, the fire in his heart was swept away indiscriminately, he retracted his palm, and wrapped around Tang Chao's hand.

I don't mind if I don't get angry, after eating and wandering around for a while, Helian Temple and Tang Dynasty finally came to show off.

It was still early at this point, and there were only the two of them in the bar besides the clerk.The boss whom Tang Chao knew was also there, and he came over to say hello when he saw him.

"Come so early?"

The boss's name was Jiang Qing. He glanced at Helian Temple, but didn't ask about the relationship between the two.He only smiled and said, "What's the name of this handsome guy beside you?"

"Come here if you have nothing to do." Tang Chaoshuo ordered two glasses of wine and replied, "The handsome guy is called Helian Temple."

Jiang Qing stretched out her hand and introduced herself: "My name is Jiang Qing. Is this your first time here? It's fun."

He Lianci shook hands with him, didn't say much, just nodded.

Tang Chao said that his acquaintance with Jiang Qing was an oolong, but now it seems that it was not made up.Because the "straight man" energy in Jiang Qing is really strong, his attitude changed slightly when he changed from the Tang Dynasty to the Crane Temple, and he treated the two people subtly differently.

It's not that he still has any hidden thoughts about Tang Chao, it's just that Tang Chao's long hair and looks make him unconsciously take care of Tang Chao as a girl.

This attitude can be observed by paying attention.I don't mean to be offensive, that's the way it is.

Jiang Qing greeted them with a few words and left. Tang Chao took a sip of the wine brought over by the waiter: "I didn't lie to you, did I? Steel Straight Man."

He Lianci adjusted a more relaxed posture, and asked casually, "Do you have a girlfriend?"

Tang Chao thought for a while: "I really don't know, I haven't asked, maybe there is."

Jiang Qing is not only a straight man, but probably the kind of straight man who has stereotypes about homosexuality.Although he made friends with Tang Chao, he still had the idea that "the gay scene is messed up" in his mind, otherwise he wouldn't deliberately not ask about the relationship between Tang Chao and Helian Temple.Probably because they were afraid that the two of them were just friends with benefits, and Tang Chao would be embarrassed if asked such a question.

Because of his unconscious thinking, the relationship between Tang Chao and him is neither far nor close, and they have known each other for quite a long time but they have not become too close.

——Part of the reason for bringing Helian Temple to drink this time is to prove that he and Jiang Qing can't have anything to do. He came here purely to drink in a different environment.

After all, he is "chasing" Helian Temple, isn't he?

After meeting Jiang Qing, Tang Chao's little thoughts naturally couldn't be hidden from Helian Temple.The desire to control and monopolize that men have is flattered without a trace, and He Lianci cannot but admit the satisfaction in his heart.

After drinking, they returned to Tang Chao's home.Now Crane Lianci is a frequent visitor to this house, and their sex has become a matter of course.

It was only after eight o'clock when the two left, and the bar had not yet become lively.It was still early, and He Lianci, who had been drinking, chose to walk instead of riding a motorcycle.

The street under his feet was brightly illuminated by the moonlight, and Tang Chao took the initiative to hold his hand again.

Now Tang Chao is lying on the bed, his naked body comes into view, reminding Helian Temple of the moonlight on the way home.

He leaned over and hugged Tang Chao into his arms, Tang Chao's fingertips resting on his shoulders were hotter than moonlight.

……

When it was done, the clock on the wall pointed to twelve o'clock.Tang Chao went to the bathroom in a daze to take a bath, He Lianci opened the window to let out the air, and opened the drawer of the bedside table to take stock of how many sets he bought last time.

In the middle of the night, the chill from the outside penetrated into the room to take away the damp and charming, and the air breathed into the lungs gradually became dry and cold.

The items in the bedside table were messy, and there was no shadow of a cover.

He Lianci raised his eyebrows and looked around the entire room, including the desk.He went over and opened the drawer casually.

Sure enough, it was thrown inside, one box was opened, and the other box was left untouched.Stacked on the edge of the drawer, there are a few pens and a stack of square sticky notes the size of an adult's palm.

There was half a page written on the top sticky note, and He Lianci's eyes glanced over it inadvertently, and then turned back after the brain automatically recognized and understood the content.

He paused for a second and picked up the note.It says:

1. Let the other party get used to your presence, sometimes "far" is better than "near"

2. Be harmless with softness and devotion, deepening relationships by opening up territories

3. Appropriately reveal the true character, highlight the advantages, and break the inherent impression

4. Keep a distance, and then give surprises
