Difficult

Tang Jielin subconsciously rubbed the flower pole, the thorns on the flower pole were a bit thorny, he was pulled forward by Ye Zhen.

"What's wrong with you today? Are you absent-minded? Why are you upset?"

"I asked you several times, but you still hesitated. If you don't want to tell me, I won't ask."

"I know, anyway, in your mind, I'm a child, I can't help you solve anything, you just don't admit it."

"It's fine if you don't want to say it, I just want you to be happy."

It is rare for Ye Zhen to reflect on his own problems calmly. Maybe he is really unreliable, at least in Tang Jielin's mind, he has not yet reached the level where he can tell his thoughts, and that is his own problem.

Tang Jielin felt a bit of bitterness in his mouth. Ye Zhen has always been like a bull. At first, he was arrogant and unreasonable when he didn't like him. Later, he was stubborn and tough when he liked him. In fact, Ye Zhen is not that barbaric. He can feel his own emotions. , he cares very much.

But the more Ye Zhen cared, the less Tang Jielin dared to speak, he was afraid that Ye Zhen would be disappointed.

The ringtone of the mobile phone interrupted the silence between the two of them. Tang Jielin hesitated for a moment and took out the mobile phone. Looking at the familiar number without notes, he didn't click in to read the content of the message at the first time.

"What's wrong?" Ye Zhen paid attention to Tang Jielin's expression, "Who's calling?"

Tang Jielin lowered his eyes, clicked and ignored the message, and turned his phone to silent, "Spam, let's go back."

The speed of the motorcycle was not fast. After driving out of the busiest street, the two of them shuttled through the criss-crossing paths.

Tang Jielin came back to his senses and realized that this was not the way home.

"Where are we going?"

The wind scattered Ye Zhen's voice, but Tang Jielin still heard it, "Take you around."

This place is not without a place to go on a date. From the bumpy path to the asphalt road, the green plants on both sides are lush, the road is deserted, and the sound of spring water flowing from the top of the mountain can be heard. The scenery is still very beautiful.

The wind was very strong, Tang Jielin looked at Ye Zhen's back, he couldn't help leaning on Ye Zhen, lowering his head to protect the flower carefully.

The petals are very fragile, even if they are protected in the palm of their hands, they are still a little messy by the wind.

Tang Jielin took out his mobile phone and took a look. A Ran's news almost occupied the screen of the mobile phone. He paused for a moment, but still clicked on the message.

"I saw it, your new boyfriend."

"He doesn't look bent."

"Your taste has changed?"

"It's very romantic. I'll buy you flowers."

"The two are still riding motorcycles together."

"Where are you going?"

"Since you don't want to answer me, I have to go to you."

Tang Jielin couldn't help but squeezed the phone tightly, his whole heart fell to the bottom.

Ye Zhen hadn't noticed Tang Jielin's strangeness yet, seeing that Tang Jielin had been silent, he took the initiative to chat with him.

"Tang Jielin, after we return to the city, do you have to go home?"

Ye Zhen licked his lips, he's been thinking about this question a lot lately, let's live together, he's too embarrassed to say this to Tang Jielin.

Because they lived together before they were married, it seemed less dignified, which made him seem very frivolous, but after thinking about it, he and Tang Jielin couldn't get married either.

"My brother bought me a house." The implication was that he, Ye Zhen, had a house and had the basic conditions to live together.

But hearing these words, he seemed to be the second generation ancestor, relying on his family to live.

Ye Zhen quickly added, "Then... if you don't think it's too good, I can buy it myself. I have saved a lot of money. In fact, if I don't want to buy a house, I can open a new store for you. Didn't you open it yourself before? As for the restaurant, it’s quite troublesome on the construction site, it’s more free to be your own boss..."

"Ye Zhen..." Tang Jielin's voice trembled a little. He felt that he was a failed adult, whether it was life or relationship, he was a failure. He was not as good as Ye Zhen. He didn't even have the most basic honesty. , he doesn't deserve Ye Zhen to think so much about him, "Go back."

The motorcycle stopped on the spot with a "squeak", and Ye Zhen paused for a moment, without turning his head, turned around and drove towards home.

On the way back, Ye Zhen drove very fast. As soon as the motorcycle stopped, Tang Jielin got off the car in a hurry, stood on the gravel road, and looked around helplessly. His eyes flashed with panic and eagerness. visibly accelerated.

"Tang Jielin?" There was nothing around here, Ye Zhen realized that something was wrong, he chased after him, pulled Tang Jielin to ask what happened, "What's the matter?"

The hot and humid evening wind was blowing dust, the surroundings were quiet, and there was no figure of A Ran. Tang Jielin's tense mood calmed down all of a sudden.

Tang Jielin pressed the back of Ye Zhen's hand, "You take a bath first, I'll boil water for you."

Ye Zhen knew that Tang Jielin was deliberately interrupting, and he wanted to ask the truth, but Tang Jielin looked embarrassed, with a pleading tone, "Can you?"

Seeing that his face was very ugly, Ye Zhen didn't want to force him, so he could only nod in agreement.

The two waited silently for the water to boil, and after Ye Zhen went to take a bath, Tang Jielin dragged his tired body upstairs.

When passing Ye Mian's door, Tang Jielin knocked on Ye Mian's door and handed him the courier.

"Master Tang." Just when Tang Jielin wanted to go back to the room, Ye Mian called him back, "Someone came to look for you just now, and I told you that you were not here, so he left."

Tang Jielin stopped breathing, "Thank you..."

"Is it your friend? I came here specially to find you?"

Tang Jielin nodded with difficulty, "Did he say anything else?"

"I asked some weird questions, and I even asked Ye Zhen about your relationship with Ye Zhen, did you mention it to him?" Ye Mian smiled, "I originally wanted to call you, In the end, he had to say no.”

Tang Jielin gritted his teeth tightly, his cheeks were sore and swollen. After Ye Mian entered, he hurried down the road, making a phone call while walking in the direction of A Ran's residence.

A Ran was not surprised to receive a call from Tang Jielin, and even said in a triumphant tone, "Hello? Are you willing to take the initiative to find me?"

"What are you asking about him?"

Aran didn't care, "Just ask, I don't think he looks crooked, so I asked out of curiosity, but I didn't expect to ask his brother, his name is Ye Zhen, right? He looks like a straight man, his brother should Don't you know about you and him? You can't see how you can beat a straight guy, Tang Jielin, you are really good."

"Don't disturb him!" Tang Jielin roared angrily.

He followed A Ran's meaning, because he was afraid that A Ran would mess up his life. He had already experienced it once, even though everyone said that they would not wear colored glasses to see him, but the moment he knew his sexual orientation, Still will gradually alienate themselves.

Disturbing his own life is the second priority. What he is more afraid of is that Aran will make Ye Zhen come out in a daze, saying that the times have progressed, and everyone's acceptance has become higher. Those are all homosexuals' self-consolation excuses, and they should be made public. Regardless of sexual orientation, the discrimination faced is unpredictable.

Besides, Ye Zhen is not gay at all, he doesn't need to cheat.

The guilt of being with Ye Zhen has never been deeper than now.

"You really care about him."

No matter how angry Tang Jielin was, he never got angry at himself. Even if it made his restaurant unable to continue, he just broke up with him in despair. When he thought of Tang Jielin yelling at himself for his current position, it was a huge shock. The sense of gap made Aran extremely uncomfortable.

He is not good, so don't think about it.

"Since you are so good with him, why do you sneak together and tell his family members, it's fair and aboveboard."

Aran snorted coldly, "Actually, it's not that good, can he come out for you? I'm afraid I'm not sure about it. In the end, you two are just playing around. Why are you so affectionate?"

Tang Jielin didn't speak, the only sound on the phone was his rapid breathing.

A Ran said again: "You break up with him, I can't threaten you anymore."

After getting out of the shower, Ye Zhen glanced downstairs, but he didn't see Tang Jielin's figure, thinking that he should be in the room, so he boiled hot water for him, and it would not be too late to ask him to come down to take a bath.

Tang Jielin had something to hide from him, Ye Zhen felt it, and his heart was heavy, he stared at the kettle in a daze, wanted to subconsciously take out his phone, and sent a message to Cheng Gang.

"I don't know what's wrong with Tang Jielin, I'm depressed, and I don't say anything when I ask him what's wrong."

Cheng Gang is still Ye Zhen's brother, when solving love problems, he didn't want to break Ye Zhen's cold water first.

"I'll tell you about this situation, then coax it." Men and women are the same, only someone can coax them to be happy.

Ye Zhen was a little frustrated, and coaxed him as well, but maybe because he didn't know the reason for Tang Jielin's abnormality, he didn't coax him to the root.

"I've coaxed him, but he's still not happy, mainly because he refuses to talk."

Cheng Gang also has no experience, and he can only teach Ye Zhen the love and love scriptures he read on the Internet, "No matter what the reason is, it's right for you to stand by his side."

"You know quite a lot."

Cheng Gang rolled his eyes in his heart, if it wasn't for Ye Zhen, he wouldn't want to know how men fall in love with men.

He was about to send an emoji, when Ye Zhen's message came again, "I won't tell you anymore, the water I boiled is boiling, I'm going to ask Tang Jielin to take a bath."

Hold!What a fucking dog, in a love like Ye Zhen, he would serve tea and water to his partner and pretend to be a grandson.

Ye Zhen poured cold water, felt it was not so hot to the touch, and then went upstairs, up to the second floor, the room was pitch black, and the lights were not turned on.

"Sleeping?" Ye Zhen walked to the room, turned on the light and saw that there was no one in the room, "Where is anyone? Tang Jielin!"

Ye Zhen's voice startled Ye Mian, and Ye Mian hurried over from the next door, "What's wrong? What are you calling?"

"Where's Tang Jielin?" Ye Zhen pointed to the empty room and asked his elder brother.

Ye Mian felt that Ye Zhen was making a fuss. Tang Jielin was a living person. He was here to work, so could he restrict his freedom?Tang Jielin is not in the room, he must have gone out.

"Master Tang's friend came to look for him before, so he should have gone out."

Ye Zhen heard, "What friend? Why haven't I heard of it?"

He vaguely felt that Tang Jielin's anomaly might be related to his friend.

"Aren't you being too lenient?" Ye Mian thought for a while, "What's the name, I forgot after I said it, what's the name... Aran?"

Ye Zhen's face changed drastically, he bumped his elder brother away, and ran out. Ye Mian was hit by the wall, and before he could realize what was going on, he heard the sound of a motorcycle coming from downstairs.
