What a pity to miss the rebirth

On the second floor of KFC, leaning against the window, the young man was casually drinking Coke, while Liu Yingnian, who was sitting opposite him, was not in a hurry, drinking his drink patiently and looking at the scenery.

He didn't use any devious methods, but straightforwardly explained his intentions to the boy, and the rest was waiting, waiting for the other party's answer, nodding or shaking his head.

"Luo Yu, I have liked you for a long time, can you be my boyfriend?"

After a few simple opening remarks, he stood at the gate of Yingguang Middle School and confessed his love to that former bed partner who had had several encounters in previous lives very seriously, with sincere eyes and a sincere attitude.

Liu Yingnian was originally a high-quality man, with a handsome appearance, and a mature and restrained heart, coupled with the accumulated experience of his rebirth, his maturity and calmness looked very different.

Such an outstanding man stood at the gate of the school and confessed to a young high school student, and the sensation caused was absolutely extraordinary.

Fortunately, there were not many people around at this time, and there were three or two sparse figures, some distance away from them. Except for the boy named Luo Yu, no one else heard this shocking confession.

Luo Yu opened her mouth halfway, her eyes widened, she was so surprised that she couldn't speak.

Then Liu Yingnian brought him here. It's not a very quiet environment, but it's very clean and warm. It's very suitable for the teenagers who were scared by him to relax and slowly buffer the fright they received.

"You know I am..." After a long time, the boy finally opened his mouth with a complicated expression.

Liu Yingnian understood what he was asking about, nodded, and then lied: "I've seen you a few times, but you didn't notice me. I can tell that you are the same kind as me, and you also observe I've lived with you for many days, I know you don't have a boyfriend, so I have the courage to appear in front of you, can you give me a chance, let me pursue you."

Luo Yu's eyelashes flickered, "Which one am I?"

Eh?

Liu Yingnian looked at him incomprehensibly.

"You were very calm when you said these words, and you didn't look nervous at all," Luo Yu stared at the expression on his face, "Did you say the same thing to many people?"

The doors of KFC opened and closed, guests came in and out, and the waiter's "Welcome" sounded from time to time.

In a corner by the window, after a brief silence, Liu Yingnian said something unexpected for the young man.

"This is the first time I've said these words today, and I've never said them before. Luo Yu, you are the first, and this is the first time I've pursued someone."

The warm and brisk in-store music seemed to soften the surprise and bewilderment in the air. Luo Yu looked at him for a while, then lowered his gaze, sucked his head into his Coke, and didn't speak for a while.

Liu Yingnian understood that he needed time, and with Luo Yu's character, no matter whether he refused or accepted, he would not answer casually. Luo Yu is not a casual person.

He looked up casually at other customers who came here to eat, but his mind wandered far away, as far as more than 40 years ago...

He and Li Xianghua were only 14 years old that year. They were in the same grade but in different classes. The two of them basically had no contact with each other. They only knew that they were students of the same grade, and they didn't even know each other's name.

Their acquaintance was very mysterious. Two people took the same book in the school library at the same time, and the two hands with slightly different skin colors moved up and down, just grabbing the spine of the book in half.

That novel is the masterpiece "Forbidden Color" by Japanese writer Yukio Mishima, and it is also a novel about male sex.

Liu Yingnian has known about this novel for a long time, and has always wanted to borrow it to read it, but he has an inexplicable fear, because he didn't know his sexuality before, but he just faintly realized that he was different from ordinary people. , instinctively resisting and curious about some things, suffering from painful contradictions every day.

Adolescent teenagers have a lot of hesitation and unknowns, especially young people who grew up in this country. =. =

It wasn't until he confirmed his sexual orientation and got the salvation from friendship from his childhood playmate Xie Fengyong that he made up his mind to face his "differentness". He gradually began to read some domestic and foreign news about this group. Books and materials, as well as some related research reports and records, he wanted to understand himself.

Once again, Liu Yingnian saw this book on the special shelf of Japanese novels in the foreign literature section of the library, and Liu Yingnian planned to borrow it back to read it this time, but he unexpectedly ran into a car with someone else.

The two of them glanced at each other and were shocked at the same time. What they were holding was like a hot potato, and they let go of it at the same time.

--I……

——Look, I will borrow it next time.

--Wait a moment!

--Um?

——I...I have met you, you are from class four, right?May I have your name?When I'm done reading, I'll bring this book to you.

—… Liu Yingnian.And you?

——I'm in Class Two, and my name is Li Xianghua.

The first meeting that afternoon, I didn't think much at the time, but now that I think about it, it was the beginning of all the fate between him and Li Xianghua.

They went from acquaintance to acquaintance, from stranger to familiarity, from ordinary classmate to friend who talked about everything... As time went by, they got to know each other more and more. second friend.

A year later, at noon one day, he was picking books in the library, and when he picked one, he heard Li Xianghua's confession while reading the introduction on the page.

——Liu Yingnian, I have liked you for a long time.

When he was stunned, there was a warm touch on his lips.

—Let's date.

……

Such a beautiful and pure beginning, there is no seven-year itch, but they can't live together for ten years.

"Let's be bed partners first." Luo Yu said suddenly, saying something astonishing.

Even though Liu Yingnian had a similar experience, he still couldn't avoid this surprise. He coughed twice, and said to his former bed partner: "You suddenly said that, and I also... I didn't find you for the sake of beauty. , but I really want to be your lover, Luo Yu, I'm serious."

"I don't want a lover yet. That kind of relationship is a burden to me. A bed partner is fine." The boy stood up from his seat, bent his neck, picked up an empty tray to cover their faces, and kissed his lips Printed it: "Come and pick me up after school tomorrow."

Liu Yingnian's old face blushed a little, this age still rejects such things more than understands them, Luo Yu is so bold, and he is not afraid of being seen, it's good for him to leave as soon as possible, leaving him here to bear the strange eyes of others.

I hope no one noticed them here just now, at least fewer people saw it...

The corner of Liu Yingnian's eyes fell somewhere, and he froze.

……Enough……

Beside him, there is a cute little doll named Yuxue, holding a round plastic ball in her arms, with a pair of big round and shiny eyes, staring at him in a daze.
