In the Same Boat

Qu Yiheng sent Yao Zhan a message early the next day, asking if he was still in class at that place, and if it was still the same time.

Quite conscious of "making up" the other party.

Looking at the message he sent, Yao Zhan felt much better.

Originally, he received a call from his mother early in the morning, and he nagged a lot about finding a girlfriend, which made him not even eat breakfast.

He replied to Qu Yiheng: Half a day off in the afternoon, if you are not busy, I will visit you after noon?

Dou Yucong went to work, Qu Yiheng was the only one at home, he looked around, other places were fine, but his room... the things on the table were in a mess, painting utensils were everywhere, sheets, quilts and even cabinets It's all oil paint.

Before Dou Yucong couldn't stand it, he wanted to clean up for him, but he refused, saying that he couldn't find where his things were after cleaning up.

Now, he kind of regrets it.

Qu Yiheng hated other people intruding into his life. For those who did not have a deep relationship with him, he would never want them to come to his house, but for Yao Zhan, it was a little different.

To put it bluntly, he wanted Yao Zhan to come.

But the current situation, if Yao Zhan really came here, he would feel too shameful, could it be that the two of them were rolling on the oil-stained bed sheet?

He glanced at the calendar on the table, calculated how many days Yao Zhan could stay here, and then sent the other party: I'd better go find you, I'll wait for you to finish class.

When going there, Qu Yiheng actually had the illusion that he was in love when he was a student. At that time, he had a sweet relationship with his first love. When he was in his third year, the other party was working part-time in a studio. Half the city to find each other, it was very hot at that time, and occasionally he was reluctant to take a taxi and took the bus. At that time, he didn't feel hard at all, but felt very sweet in his heart.

How many years has it been? In a flash, it has been almost ten years since he broke up with that person.

Ten years later, I suddenly felt that feeling again, and I was still on my way to find my pao friend.

It felt like a lot of fun.

He glanced at his phone, and Yao Zhan asked him: Are you there yet?

Qu Yiheng smiled, it feels good to have someone expecting him to wait for him.

The two met at noon, and Yao Zhan deliberately complained to him: "I feel better after seeing you."

"what happened?"

Yao Zhan's words were a bit ambiguous, and Qu Yiheng's ears were sour and sweet, and he suddenly felt embarrassed to look at him.

"That little brother of yours doesn't know your sexual orientation?"

Qu Yiheng nodded: "We haven't talked about it."

Yao Zhan smiled: "But he is, right?"

This reminded Qu Yiheng of the "radar" Dou Yucong said yesterday, and he looked at the other party in surprise: "How do you know?"

"I can see it." Yao Zhan smiled, "Sometimes I can see it."

Qu Yiheng didn't know how to answer the words, so he simply stopped talking.

"Then is it convenient for the two of you to live together?" Yao Zhan felt a little too much after saying this, and quickly explained, "I don't mean anything else, don't get me wrong."

Qu Yiheng didn't think much about it, but he felt a little unhappy that Yao Zhan was so interested in Dou Yucong.

"What's wrong with you today?" He changed the subject, "In a bad mood?"

"Hey, my mother called early this morning to talk about that." Yao Zhan said, "I haven't come out to my family yet."

Qu Yiheng stopped.

His previous experience made him very sensitive to this kind of thing. Although he knew that he had no right or position to judge Yao Zhan's affairs, he just felt like something was stuck in his throat.

"What's wrong?" Yao Zhan took two steps and found that the other party stopped, and looked back at him.

"It's okay." Qu Yiheng's good mood was gone, he walked to Yao Zhan's side again, and asked as if he was okay, "Then what are you going to do? Get married in the future?"

Yao Zhan smiled: "I'm not so inhuman, I won't do things that harm others and benefit myself."

Qu Yiheng looked at him and suddenly felt that although Yao Zhan had changed a lot, he was still the pure boy he was when he was young. This is good, at least it didn't disappoint him in this respect.

"Well," he said, "you're doing the right thing."

Yao Zhan smiled: "You speak like that, just like our former chemistry teacher."

Qu Yiheng also laughed, and said with some embarrassment: "Really, I don't really remember."

He hurried forward, reaching out to hail a taxi at the side of the road, Yao Zhan stood behind him, and suddenly asked, "What do you remember about the past?"

In an instant, the image of them hiding and doing that kind of thing flooded into my mind again. Qu Yiheng swallowed, and looked back at Yao Zhan: "I remember everything that should be remembered."

Although the two of them didn't have a relationship with each other, but no matter what, they couldn't have sex as soon as they met.

After lunch, Yao Zhan proposed to take a stroll.

Since it was a casual stroll, Qu Yiheng recited the homework he had prepared in advance one by one for him to choose.

However, Yao Zhan said, "You went to university here, right? Take me to your school for a walk."

This made Qu Yiheng unexpected, he never thought that Yao Zhan would want to go to his school.

Since graduating, Qu Yiheng hasn't gone back once. It doesn't mean that the school is not good, nor does it mean that he really doesn't have any feelings for his alma mater. The main reason is that too many unpleasant things happened to him there. Even one of those incidents nearly brought him down, and it wasn't until the last two years that he started to get better.

Most of them are unpleasant experiences, why do you have to revisit the old places?

But Qu Yiheng didn't refuse, just like he couldn't refuse Yao Zhan's caress/touch before.

The Academy of Art is in the south of the city, and they passed by from the north of the city.

Along the way, Yao Zhan chatted with Qu Yiheng one after another, and the two of them talked about unnutritious topics. Afterwards, there was nothing to say, and Yao Zhan fell asleep relying on Qu Yiheng.

Summer is really hot, even if the air conditioner is turned on in the car, Qu Yiheng still feels hot.

Because Yao Zhan was leaning against him, he didn't dare to move around. He straightened up and looked out the window. Occasionally, when the car was driving unsteadily, he would stretch out his hands to protect him.

Yao Zhan's breath would hit his neck, and it would feel itchy, from his neck to his whole body.

He can't remember how long it's been since he's been this close to someone, not the sex/love kind, but the kind of closeness that comes naturally in life.

He thought that he was very resistant to this kind of thing, but he didn't expect that he would actually enjoy it, and even hoped that the car would drive slowly so that the road would extend infinitely.

Yao Zhan actually didn't fall asleep much, he just closed his eyes to waste time, but the feeling of leaning on Qu Yiheng's shoulder was so good that he didn't want to wake up.

Although it feels good, his neck hurts after a long time. After all, he is half a head taller than Qu Yiheng.

After getting out of the car, he rubbed his neck, looked at the big characters on the school gate and said, "Your school is quite impressive."

Qu Yiheng smiled: "After all, it is a key art school."

The two of them walked to the campus together, and occasionally there were students passing by, all of them dressed in full personality.

Yao Zhan looked at them, then at Qu Yiheng, and asked him, "Did you do the same when you were in college?"

"what?"

"Long hair, pierced ears, and jewelry." Yao Zhan imagined Qu Yiheng like that and said, "I've never seen you like that."

Qu Yiheng smiled: "I'm the kind that has no personality."

"But you still have a lot of pierced ears." Yao Zhan suddenly leaned over to count, his lips were very close to Qu Yiheng's ears, and the voice that came into Qu Yiheng's ears became extraordinarily sexy, "It seems that the last time I saw you wearing earrings .”

The voice made Qu Yiheng get goosebumps, he raised his hand and rubbed his earlobe and said, "I don't wear it very much now."

Yao Zhan nodded, and suddenly raised his hand to gently grab the back of Qu Yiheng's head, and even touched his red earlobe with his fingers.

"Actually, you haven't changed much compared to when you were in high school."

Because of Yao Zhan's actions, Qu Yiheng already felt his legs go weak.

He didn't know if it was because the sexual relationship between the two was deeper, so he couldn't stand the other person's physical contact very much. This person seemed to be a spring drug specially aimed at him, making him likely to lose his composure at any time.

Even so, Qu Yiheng had to pretend to be okay: "Really, but I'm over 30, and I'm still old."

"Really?" Yao Zhan suddenly stood in front of Qu Yiheng, forcing him to stop. He leaned slightly and looked at Qu Yiheng, "Let me see how old I am."

Qu Yiheng blushed from face to neck.

Some students passing by gave them sideways glances. In fact, in this kind of school, homosexuals are very common, and no one makes a fuss. It’s just that they are all young men in their early twenties. Qu Yiheng is fine. Yao Zhan stops here, Not like a student at all, but like a handsome teacher.

And the combination of the two of them is not so much an old friend who came here to hang out, but a couple walking, or a teacher-student relationship with a special story.

"You don't look much different from those students." Yao Zhan said, "You look better than them."

As they stared at each other, Qu Yiheng suddenly remembered that once when he was giving Yao Zhan a hand lu, he was wrapped in the other's arms. At that time, they were hiding in the toilet cubicle of the library, and Yao Zhan was holding his ear Said: "You are so beautiful."

Originally, Qu Yiheng had forgotten about this matter, but unexpectedly, today, at this time, he remembered it.

"Why are you in a daze?" Yao Zhan had already turned around and walked two steps forward. He turned around and called Qu Yiheng.

"Hands so cold?" It was summer, but Qu Yiheng's hands were cold.

Yao Zhan held him and clasped his fingers unconsciously.

Qu Yiheng had already returned to his soul, and knew that he was being held by someone at this moment, but he didn't ask any more questions, and he didn't shake off, he just let the other person pull him and walked slowly forward.

In the past, I always felt that holding hands was confession, and kissing was love.

But now, no one is so innocent. Holding hands is not only when you know that you are in love, and you also know that kissing is not only for lovers.

There are many undefinable things in the world of adults. If you have to give a definition to all behaviors, it would be hypocritical.

Qu Yiheng didn't want to be a hypocritical person, he knew what he had to do was to keep playing this game with Yao Zhan.

Until one of the two gets tired of it.
