Meng Fan said that there was an important matter, and Lu Ran couldn't delay it, so he took He Yinan to Meng Fan's car.

Just as Lu Ran was about to open the back seat door, Meng Fan suddenly said, "Lu Ran."

Meng Fan rested his fingers lightly on the car door, turned his eyes to the passenger seat, and said in a cold voice, "Sit in the front."

Lu Ran was reluctant and wanted to refuse, but realized that it was not polite.

Meng Fan had told him before that he didn't like the two of them sitting in the back seat when driving, which gave him the illusion of being the driver.

"Okay." Lu Ran reluctantly responded.

Who knew that Meng Fan didn't seem to be happy, glanced at He Yinan, and said, "He's coming too?"

Lu Ran heard the contempt in Meng Fan's tone, and quickly said, "Why not, he is my friend."

"Really? Is he your friend?" Meng Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at He Yinan, "A few weeks ago you said he was dumb, boring, boring?"

Lu Ran was speechless.

That was just his thoughts at the time, people's thoughts can change!

Moreover, Meng Fan's words were obviously poking at He Yinan's sore spot, how could anyone say that?

He really wanted to curse.

Lu Ran quickly turned to look at He Yinan.

He Yinan just woke up, his eyes were still dazed, maybe he didn't hear Meng Fan's heart-wrenching words, or maybe he was feeling sad when he heard it.

Lu Ran was inexplicably angry, frowned and said angrily: "Meng Fan, is there something wrong with you? Do you have to talk like this? I said he is my friend."

"No, I just said something casually." Meng Fan said, "What are you in a hurry for?"

As if his fist hit the cotton, Lu Ran couldn't say anything no matter how angry he was.

Meng Fan glanced at He Yinan casually, and even smiled lightly, although the smile was not as deep as his eyes.

After a while, Meng Fan finished smoking the cigarette in his hand, and then said to the two of them, "Get in the car."

The two had an unpleasant fight, and Lu Ran didn't want to take into account Meng Fan's mood, so he directly accompanied He Yinan to the back seat of the car.

Meng Fan sneered, opened the door and sat in the driver's seat without saying anything.

The sleepiness in He Yinan's eyes had long since dissipated, his whole body was tense, his lips were slightly pale, and he stared at the back of Meng Fan's head.

Lu Ran looked at He Yinan, and began to regret taking He Yinan into the car.He Yinan has been in low spirits for the past two days, he shouldn't have taken He Yinan around.

Lu Ran asked He Yinan in a low voice: "Are you feeling sick again? Do you want me to take you home to rest?"

He Yinan came back to his senses, looking very disturbed, took out his phone and poked: 【No, I want to be with you. 】

With He Yinan's nervous appearance, those who didn't know thought they got into a black car.

Lu Ran comforted He Yinan in a low voice, and quickly asked Meng Fan: "Lao Meng, what is the important thing you are talking about? If it is drinking, I won't have time to accompany you. I am really busy."

Meng Fan kept looking at the two through the rearview mirror, his lips were drawn into a line, obviously unhappy, and he said coldly, "I thought you wouldn't forget what day it is today."

"What day is so special?" Lu Ran asked.

"Today is Li Erpang's birthday." Meng Fan said in a deep voice.

Lu Ran remembered now, and opened his mouth guiltily, but didn't speak.

Too bad, he thought.

If Meng Fan hadn't come looking for him, he would have almost forgotten that today is Li Erpang's birthday.

The three college roommates celebrated their birthdays together. After graduation, many traditional festivals and Western festivals, they tried every means to find a way to get together, all to maintain the brotherhood of the three.

In the past, Lu Ran looked forward to having dinner with his brothers every day during the holidays, chatting about life and work together, and drinking some wine, so happy.

But how could he have forgotten this year?

Lu Ran opened WeChat, and saw that Li Erpang had sent him several grievance emoticons in succession.

Lu Ran quickly replied to Li Erpang: 【Sorry, happy birthday, Erpang. 】

The other end replied with a few happy emojis in seconds, and sent a text: [It's all brothers apologizing, and it's over for Brother Ran's treat tonight, right? (laugh)】

Lu Ran chatted with Li Erpang again, then turned off the screen.

The car was eerily quiet, and the ticking of the turn signal was exceptionally clear.

Meng Fan remained expressionless, his eyes slightly raised, and he glanced at the rearview mirror.

Lu Ran happened to look up and saw Meng Fan staring closely at He Yinan through the rearview mirror, with a hint of disgust in his eyes.

Arriving near Li Erpang's house, Lu Ran got out of the car and hurried to the electronics section of the department store.

Today is Li Erpang's birthday, so he must give his brother something nice.

Thinking that Li Erpang likes to play games, he wandered around the game area, and bought another game console with a lot of money. After all, the one he bought last time was kept at home, so it is not realistic to go back and get it now.

He ran back panting, Meng Fan and He Yinan were waiting for him downstairs at Li Erpang's house.

Meng Fan was putting his hands in his pockets, looking down at He Yinan from above, and said to He Yinan coldly, "It's good that you know."

Although Lu Ran didn't hear everything, he knew that what Meng Fan said was not good.

He really couldn't understand why Meng Fan had such hostility towards He Yinan.

These two people clearly don't know each other?

Lu Ran walked over quickly with his long legs, grabbed He Yinan's hand, and led him away.

It was as natural as if he didn't know how ambiguous the action of holding hands was in the eyes of others.

Meng Fan looked at Lu Ran's back with cold eyes, took out a cigarette, lit it with a lighter, and took a puff.

Lu Ran took He Yinan's hand to the door of Li Erpang's house, and suddenly felt that He Yinan's hand was wet, as if he was sweating a lot.

He wiped He Yinan with his own hands, and then asked, "Are you hot?"

He Yinan shook his head, bent his eyes and typed: 【I'm just a little nervous. 】

"There's nothing to be nervous about." Lu Ran joked with a smile, "It's just seeing friends, not parents."

He Yinan was startled, and forced a smile.

Knowing Lu Ran for so many years, he never thought that Lu Ran would take him to meet his friends on his own initiative.

After all, Lu Ran used to hate him so much.

At this time, the door opened from the inside, and several tall boys rushed out from the inside, excitedly saying: "Brother Ran is finally here!"

"What are you doing standing at the door without ringing the doorbell?"

"Brother Fat waited so hard for you!"

"Brother Ran came so late, I forgot Fat Brother's birthday? Tsk tsk tsk? Where did you go to pick up girls?"

These boys are all relatives and friends of Li Erpang. Although some of them are quite young, Lu Ran has a good relationship with them.

It's just that I didn't expect that, as if they hadn't seen him for hundreds of years, they were so enthusiastic that they leaned over to hook him up without saying a word.

The hand held by Lu Ran and He Yinan was forced to loosen.

Before he had time to look back, he was surrounded by people into the room.

Someone opened a can of beer with a "呵——" and handed it in front of him: "Brother Ran is late, brother Ran treats you to dinner tonight, why don't we have a good meal? Fat brother?"

Li Erpang walked over happily: "That's a must. Buffet, revolving restaurant, five-star hotel, you can choose whatever you want. Brother Ran is a great cartoonist, and he is very proud."

"Don't, don't, don't." Lu Ran hurriedly begged for mercy, "My wallet is thin, I was wrong, I shouldn't have forgotten our fat brother's birthday."

Several people laughed.

After all, Lu Ran quickly took out the PS5 he bought and gave it to Li Erpang as a birthday present.

"PS5!" Li Erpang hugged him, laughing until his eyes disappeared, "Brother Ran! You understand me too well!"

"Isn't that right?"

Li Erpang couldn't put it down, held it in his arms and looked at it for a while, and suddenly remembered something: "Brother Ran, you really gave it to me this time, right? You won't send it to the wrong person again, right?"

"What what? What did you send to the wrong person?" The person next to him suddenly got excited and began to gossip, "Who did Brother Ran want to buy a gift for? Boyfriend or girlfriend?"

"What?" Li Erpang put the game console aside, tried to recall for a while, and said, "I don't know, it was Brother Ran who told me that Brother Ran was injured that day, luckily someone arrived in time with his back on his back." The hospital, if it was later, it would not be able to be rescued, so Brother Ran said he should thank him, right?"

"En." Lu Ran responded.

"Then what's going on now? Has anyone been found? Is it Brother Meng Fan?" Li Erpang asked.

"Huh? Brother Meng Fan?" The other brothers asked in confusion after hearing this: "Brother Meng Fan injured his back while exercising a few months ago, and it's not convenient for him to walk. Brother Meng Fan is so awesome?"

"Haha, it seems that Brother Meng Fan really loves you, Brother Ran!" they joked.

"Ah?" Li Erpang was shocked, "When did Brother Meng Fan hurt his back, why didn't I know?"

Lu Ran frowned when he heard this, recalling some details of Meng Fan's walking these past few days, his sitting posture was not natural, and it was indeed impossible to run with someone on his back.

So Meng Fan lied to him?

The others chatted for a while, seeing that Lu Ran was silent, they went over one after another to say a few words of comfort.

"It's okay, Brother Ran. Brother Meng Fan is bluffing you like this, probably because he doesn't want you to pay too much attention to this matter. Besides, that person is also kind enough to help you, so he probably doesn't ask for anything in return, just let it happen."

"Yes, yes, don't think about it."

On the other side, Li Erpang disassembled the game console and connected it to the TV. The attention of the others was instantly diverted, and everyone gathered to watch and play the game.

Lu Ran picked up a can of beer and took a few sips, then suddenly remembered He Yinan.

He searched the room several times before he saw He Yinan sitting awkwardly on the single sofa on the other side of the living room.

The lights there were dim, and He Yinan was looking at them all alone in the shadow without light.

Lu Ran was extremely annoyed, it was so negligent, there are so many people here, He Yinan can't speak, and he only knows him, so he can only rely on him.

Just now when He Yinan heard that he was coming to see his friend, he was so happy that his hands were sweating from nervousness.

But he was so careless and threw He Yinan aside.

It's really outrageous.

Just as Lu Ran was about to walk over to look for He Yinan, a boy ran over and handed the controller into his hand and said, "Brother Ran, Fat Brother said you are good at playing games, come and show us, okay?"

"I'm not free, you guys call first." Lu Ran pushed the handle away and stood up.

The boy found it strange, and followed Lu Ran's gaze, seeing that it was unbearable, the little boy said "Oh shit".

Everyone in the room looked at him in unison.

Even Meng Fan who had just pushed the door in was stunned.

"What's the matter with you?" Meng Fan asked with a smile.

Seeing everyone looking at him, the boy scratched his head in embarrassment, his face was a little hot: "I, I'm just a little surprised, is it Senior He? Senior Senior He, hello, I'm your alumni."

Senior He, who was rumored to have been accepted by Nanying Academy because of his good looks, unexpectedly appeared in front of him.

The little boy was happy and nervous, looked at He Yinan and said.

When it was time to eat, the situation in the room changed instantly. Lu Ran and He Yinan were sitting next to each other, but everyone was staring at He Yinan. He Yinan was still a little nervous and looked down at the bowl.

"So it was the little fan I met in the hospital that day, who likes Brother Ran?" Li Erpang looked at He Yinan and said thoughtfully.

Then everyone's eyes turned to Lu Ran again, as if they heard some shocking news.

"What little fanboy!" Lu Ran had a guilty conscience because of his drawing of gay cartoons. Now when he heard Li Erpang say this, he straightened his face and said seriously: "Don't talk about these nonsense all day long, and talk like others. It's bent. He Yinan is my friend."

"Oh, I didn't say he was bent... oh, okay..."

Li Erpang didn't dare to speak anymore, so he quickly lowered his head to pick up the rice.

At this time, the boy from the same school as He Yinan just now spoke again, saying, "Senior He."

Then he paused for two seconds and asked excitedly, "Can I call you that?"

He Yinan froze for a moment, then nodded.

The chopsticks in Lu Ran's hand stopped quickly, and his ears were pricked up.

Meng Fan didn't seem to care about the conversation at the dinner table. He just brought a shrimp to Lu Ran and said in a low voice, "Eat it while it's hot."

The boy thought for a while, and then started talking to He Yinan again: "I... I heard that you can't talk, so will it be inconvenient for you to go to class?"

Lu Ran already knew what he was going to say in the next sentence, probably, Senior He, if you have any inconvenience, I can help you, which major class am I in... and so on...

Although it is normal for men to develop friendships, why does he find this situation so strange?

This little boy hasn't moved his eyes from the moment he saw He Yinan. He said that his ears turned red, so he couldn't be crooked, right?Be bent by He Yinan?

He Yinan smiled gently, and wrote a few words with pen and paper to show him: 【Thank you for caring, classmate.Because I specialize in mime, it is quite convenient to go to class, and the teachers take good care of me. 】

The little boy took the paper with a disappointed expression on his face.

Lu Ran thought, sure enough.

"No one eats fish? It will smell fishy when it's cold." Lu Ran moved his chopsticks and put a large piece of fish into He Yinan's bowl, "Hurry up and eat."

He Yinan was a little surprised, and secretly glanced at Lu Ran, wondering if he was wrong, Lu Ran seemed a little unhappy?

He Yinan saw that there was still a shrimp in Lu Ran's bowl, so he put it in his own bowl, carefully peeled off the shell of the shrimp for Lu Ran, put it back in Lu Ran's bowl, gently pushed Lu Ran's hand, and held up the phone to give it to Lu Ran. He saw: [You eat too. 】

Lu Ran's brows relaxed a little, and he responded softly: "Yeah."

Meng Fan raised his eyes, frowned and looked at He Yinan, his mandible tensed slightly.

The little boy didn't give up yet, and looked at He Yinan with bright eyes: "Senior He, I'm a freshman majoring in drama, can we get to know each other? May I ask, do you usually live in the thirteenth building dormitory?" ? Because I heard that you live in the same building as me, but I seldom see you. Ah, I have no other intentions, just thinking that I can exchange learning experiences with you when I have time..."

Lu Ran couldn't help but put down his chopsticks.

He knew at a glance that this was not a serious person, and it was no problem to exchange learning experience, but what did this person mean when he came up and asked about the dormitory?Are you ready to read at night with the lights on?

He Yinan saw that Lu Ran's face was darkened, and he hurriedly picked up a pen and wrote to the little boy: [I'm really sorry, junior, I'm already a senior and will graduate soon, so it may be difficult to help you. 】

At this time, Meng Fan stood up, patted Lu Ran's shoulder, and said in a low voice, "Come to the balcony, I have something to tell you."

After He Yinan handed the paper to the elementary school boy, he looked at the figures of Lu Ran and Meng Fan walking towards the balcony, and lowered his eyes in disappointment.

Li Erpang quickly finished the meal, sat down at the dining table in an orderly manner, and didn't dare to say a word.

What happened to today's meal is really complicated, Li Erpang thought in his heart.
