not in love

"Is it really okay to be so high-profile?"

Yu Zhijuan joked that now his vision has fully recovered.

"Mr. Lin is not afraid of losing fans?"

"Don't be afraid. That fountain is very beautiful, you stand over and I'll take a picture for you?"

At this moment, Lin Xie was wearing a camera around his neck, like a proud parent who frantically took pictures of his children at the graduation ceremony of elementary school students.

"There are quite a lot of beautiful places in our school. According to your estimate, we can't finish it all day."

Yu Zhijuan, who was forced to put on a bachelor's uniform, stood helplessly in front of the fountain, followed Lin Xie's wish and smiled at the camera perfunctorily for two seconds.

"Of course we need to take more pictures of this important moment,"

Lin Xie said solemnly,

"That flower bed is also beautiful, you stand over it quickly."

"Don't be so ignorant,"

Yu Zhijuan laughed,

"A small flower bed, don't you have many in your house?"

"The main reason is that you look good."

Lin Xie raised the camera as he spoke.

Zhuge Yunbai has been convicted as an international criminal, and most of his students have been found to be related to Lewis' criminal organization.

Now the other students in the school are having dinner with their tutors to say goodbye, Yu Zhijuan took Lin Xie to wander around the school after taking a break.

"Won't you take a picture with me?"

Yu Zhijuan looked at Lin Xie, blinked,

"It's okay to take off the sunglasses here a little bit, and it shouldn't be recognized so quickly."

"it is good,"

Lin Xie readily handed over the camera to a kind person passing by, and naturally stood beside Yu Zhijuan, gently holding his hand,

"Should we go to the locker room after taking the photo?"

"...Do you have to do that?"

Yu Zhijuan hesitated.

"certainly,"

Lin Xie nodded and said,

"Isn't this time just to make up for the previous regrets?"

When he was a student, Yu Zhijuan was worried about money every day. Before Zhuge Yunbai helped him find a part-time job as a tutor for Loki, he couldn't even afford the tuition.

So no matter whether it was elementary school or middle school, he did not buy school uniforms, did not participate in any group photos, and did not leave any graduation souvenirs.

"It's just that you want to see me in school uniform."

Yu Zhijuan ruthlessly exposed him.

Lin Xie naturally nodded frankly,

"Well, because it feels like it would be a good fit."

"..."

"Of course I won't force you if you don't want to."

"……think."

Yu Zhijuan paused, his voice was a little low,

"After all, it's considered...an extravagant wish that I couldn't realize when I was a child."

Lin Xie felt a slight movement in his heart as if he had been scratched when he heard the words.

"Then do we have any other unfulfilled wishes, Mr. Yu?"

"one left."

Yu Zhijuan thought about it seriously.

"Ok?"

"I want to see you wearing glasses."

"……I?"

"Lu Yuan showed me photos of you in high school, and you wore glasses at that time,"

Yu Zhijuan blinked,

"Because of learning myopia? Did you have an operation later?"

Lin Xie laughed when he heard this,

"At that time, I wore glasses to cover my face, otherwise it would easily affect the study of the students around me."

"It looks like it's backfiring."

Yu Zhijuan commented.

Lin Xie pricked up his ears, feeling excited,

"Do you like the way I wear glasses?"

"It's just a novelty, and it looks more like a student... Wouldn't it be nice for me to wear a high school uniform?"

"Then go to the store and buy a pair."

Lin Xie decided.

It's not hard to buy glasses in college, just drop by on the way to the locker room.

At that time, there were almost no people in the building, and students and teachers were either crowded in the auditorium or taking pictures on campus like the two of them.

Yu Zhijuan took Lin Xie to the lounge on the top floor, where he often took a lunch break when he was studying, and it was almost tacitly regarded as his private place.

After locking the door, Lin Xie casually found a chair that wasn't dusty and sat down.

Yu Zhijuan and him looked at each other for a moment.

"...Are you going to watch me take off like this?"

"It's not the first time,"

Lin Xie nodded innocently,

"Or do you need me to help you?"

"I don't care about you if you're excited."

Yu Zhijuan glanced at him, stood in front of Lin Xie and took off his clothes one by one.

Lin Xie watched calmly, with a pair of thin-rimmed glasses that Yu Zhijuan picked out for him in the store just now on the bridge of his nose, which looked like a collar for a wild beast, covering the deep waves in his eyes.

Both were very patient.

Lin Xie was restraining himself, while Yu Zhijuan intentionally slowed down with bad intentions.

After a long time, Lin Xie spoke slowly:

"If you don't have a bow tie, don't tie it."

"why?"

Yu Zhijuan, who was thinking about what to tie, stopped, and looked up at him.

"Anyway, it will be demolished soon."

Lin Xie got up, put the academic uniform that Zhijuan took off before the window, and covered the window tightly so that no one could see the scene inside the house.

"Then tie a bow,"

Yu Zhijuan pursed his lips,

"Ms. Lin should enjoy the process of unwrapping presents."

……

The sunset glow is scattered, flowing into the cracks of the window along the flower shadows, and then sinking into the folds of the clothes, swaying and swaying together under the entangled breath.

In the end, Lin Xie's glasses were hanging on Zhijuan's ears, and Yu Zhijuan's bow tie was wrapped around Lin Xie's wrist. There were not many serious graduation photos in the camera, and the photos that must not be seen by a third person were. A lot more.

Not only was the rest room in the school messed up, but the apartment where Yu was tired of studying was also doomed.

The two of them refused to stay in the hotel they had booked in advance, and spent a ridiculous night on the narrow single bed in the apartment.

At noon the next day, because the bed was too small, Lin Xie fell off the bed with a "plop" when turning over.

Yu Zhijuan also woke up, and couldn't help laughing when he saw Lin Xie who was sitting on the ground with sleepy eyes.

"Master Lin has never slept in such a narrow bed before?"

"I'm afraid of crushing you,"

Lin Xie stepped back on the bed with a stiff mouth, lowered his head and rubbed Yu Zhijuan's forehead,

"I want to buy this apartment."

"Is money so superfluous to you?"

Yu Zhijuan teased,

"It's not a nice house. If it wasn't for the school, no one would choose to live here."

"But it's all about you,"

Lin Xie paused,

"Narrow, safe, suitable for getting through the susceptible period."

"Why are you getting more and more perverted?"

Yu Zhijuan resolutely rejected his proposal,

"And it seems that this place has been covered by your pheromone since last night, right?"

"Isn't that right?"

Lin Xie was very satisfied with this, resting his chin on Zhijuan's shoulder,

"What's the plan for today?"

"Go to the central square."

"central square?"

"Well, have you heard of the legend about feeding pigeons in the central square?"

Yu Zhijuan explained,

"The couple who have fed the pigeons together can go to the end... Lin Xie, what are you laughing at?"

"I didn't laugh."

Lin Xie bit her lip.

"You're just laughing."

"No."

"Do you think it's naive for me to believe in such legends?"

Yu Zhijuan stared at Lin Xie distrustfully.

Of course he himself didn't believe this... But didn't Lin Xie say that they were on their honeymoon? Didn't couples do some silly but romantic things when they go on a trip?

You can't stay in bed all day long.

"Not childish at all,"

Lin Xie said seriously,

"And very cute."

"...Don't laugh anymore!"

Yu Zhijuan grabbed the pillow and threw it at him.

"Stop laughing,"

Lin Xie held back his smile, and when he was about to reach out to pick up the pillow that fell on the floor, he suddenly found a watch on his wrist.

The style is unique yet familiar.

It was the watch he had exchanged for the diamond ring with the unscrupulous Glensu businessman four years ago.

"Still know it?"

Yu Zhijuan propped his face and looked at him with a bright smile.

"when……?"

"I put it on for you last night while you were asleep."

"You bought it from that boss?"

Lin Xie was dumbfounded.

"To be precise, it was redeemed,"

Yu Zhijuan raised his chin slightly, his dark pupils showed a bit of perverse indulgence, like a polar night covered in snow.

"Last night, my husband yelled. It would be unreasonable not to reward you with something."

He deliberately imitated Lin Xie with a bit of arrogance in his tone, it sounded as if he was the one who was called "husband" last night.

In a blink of an eye, Lin Xie had grabbed his waist and lifted him up.

"Weary, let's get married."

"Are you proposing to me?"

"no,"

Lin Xie smiled,

"With the experience of last time, I will prepare well this time. Now let's wash up first. Don't you want to feed the pigeons? If you go late, the pigeons will be fed and there will be nothing to do with us."

"You don't know much about the savage pigeons of Glencoe,"

Yu Zhijuan leaned lazily on Lin Xie's shoulder, raised his hand and held up his toothbrush, waiting for Lin Xie to squeeze the toothpaste for him,

"Those pigeons will try their best to grab the breadcrumbs in your hand even if they are dying."

It was already three o'clock in the afternoon when the two arrived at the central square.

The clock tower in the distance struck the hour, and the trained pigeons flew around the surrounding buildings and flew back to the square.

Lin Xie had just opened a bag of pigeon food bought from a peddler, and before he had time to distribute it to Yu Zhijuan, he was surrounded by thumping pigeons.

In the blink of an eye, only a few scattered feathers remained in his hand.

"Have you seen it?"

Tired of knowledge and habitual,

"You have to hide the bags and grab them out by the handful."

While talking, he grabbed Lin Xie's hand and put his hand into his pocket,

"Don't catch too many at once. Don't let those pigeons catch you."

"Why do you seem to be very experienced?"

Lin Xie smiled, only listening to Yu Zhijuan's explanation with lowered eyes,

"When I first came here, my dad used to make money by selling pigeon food here, and he would take me with him during the holidays."

"Bring you to feed the pigeons?"

"Take me to pester people to buy things,"

Yu Zhijuan shrugged,

"I'm cute, almost no one will reject me."

"I understand very well,"

Lin Xie smiled,

"If you had met me at that time, I would have bought you home with me."

"It's a pity that I didn't meet you, because my dad must have done something like selling me for money."

Yu Zhijuan grabbed a handful of corn kernels and sprinkled them on the ground, all the pigeons flew towards him.

"Chinese boy, so handsome."

In a street bar not far away, the boss leaned against the door and smoked while admiring.

The drunken man sitting on the side raised his head lazily when he heard the sound, stared at the two people on the square with squinted eyes for a long time, and suddenly laughed.

"why are you laughing?"

The boss exhaled smoke, the man is a regular customer here, he is drunk from morning to night, like a lunatic.

"That man looks like my son."

"Don't be so drunk,"

The boss smiled helplessly. Although the man's features were still handsome, his surroundings revealed a shabby and desolate atmosphere. He didn't seem to be from the same world as those two glamorous young people in the square.

"You are daydreaming."

"I'm not dreaming, I recognize him, he looks exactly the same as when I was a child."

The man laughed sullenly twice.

"Then are you going to find him?"

The boss joked that he obviously didn't believe the man's words at all.

"How about letting him treat you to a bottle of good wine? You only drink the cheapest wine with water in my place all day long. You should be tired of it by now?"

"I don't."

The man grumbled a few words, then leaned back on the table,

"I didn't support him when he was young, and I don't need him to support me when he is old."

"Oh, then you are quite stubborn,"

The boss is all listening to him making up stories, chatting with each other,

"Which one is your son?"

"Um...the one on the left."

"very beautiful,"

The boss sized up Yu Zhijuan,

"Those two people look like a couple. Didn't your son tell you about his relationship?"

"A couple?"

The man raised his head again, stared at Lin Xie for a while, then snorted,

"I broke off relations with him long ago, and it doesn't matter to me what kind of man he finds."

"I think you can't make it up."

The boss put out the cigarette butt, and ignored the drunk man who was in a pool of mud.

And Yu Zhijuan seemed to feel the gaze from not far away, and raised his eyes to look at the bar.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Xie asked.

"……fine,"

He slowly looked away, and smiled slightly,

"It just feels like we've been secretly blessed."
