"Don't be ungrateful, okay?" Yi Pin glanced at Shen Yu. This guy was really petty.
"Anyway, in your eyes, I'm just ungrateful, right?" Shen Yu stuffed his hands into his pockets coldly and stared silently.
"You... You really hold grudges!" Yi Pin hooked the corner of his mouth with a smile that he couldn't hide.
Shen Yu stood with his back to Yi Pin, looking indifferent.
"Did you smoke? Give me a couple of puffs."
But Yi Pin refused to leave the room. He gently opened the window.
"What are you doing?"
Shen Yu looked at Yi Pin in front of him in confusion.
"Let the moonlight in!"
Yi Pin hooked the corner of his mouth with a smile.
Shen Yu stood quietly by the window, looking calm. He took out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer and threw it to Yi Pin. "Go back to your room to smoke!"
"You can't be so pushy!" Yi Pin pouted.
He directly lay down on Shen Yu's bed and smelled a faint fragrance.
This Shen Yu was really... a delicate young man. Most of the beds of his peers usually smelled of sweat.
Seeing Yi Pin being so cheeky, Shen Yu had no choice but to lie down on the bed too. The two of them quietly stared at the ceiling. The ceiling was like a universe, with all kinds of planets and constellations on it.
"You still believe in these things?" Yi Pin hooked the corner of his mouth with a smile, took a puff of his cigarette, and blew out a few smoke rings.
Shen Yu remained silent without saying a word. He just hooked the corner of his mouth slightly.
"What star is that? It's so cool!" Yi Pin pointed at a gray planet with a rotating gray rim around it. He couldn't help but smile.
"Saturn!"
Shen Yu shrugged and hooked the corner of his mouth with a smile.
"I wanted to be an astronaut when I was a kid!"
As he said this, he even thought it was funny and hooked the corner of his mouth.
Yi Pin also smiled.
The dreams of childhood were so innocent. They always thought that nothing was impossible.
"I wanted to play in the professional basketball league when I was a kid. I watched the basketball drama with Yuan Daying at that time and thought that one day I would become such a great player too. I kept pestering my grandpa to beat me every day. I thought that getting beaten was practicing the Lan Die Hua Yun You Shen Step..."
As they talked, the two of them burst into laughter.
Shen Yu took the cigarette that Yi Pin had smoked, stared at the cigarette butt for a while, and then slowly took a deep puff.
"Can't you just smoke another one?"
Yi Pin looked disgusted, but the corner of his mouth was still upturned.
The two of them finally had something in common, and there was no longer so much awkwardness. They talked a lot and for a long time.
"Zixuan told me today. She said that she was too impulsive that day, so she said some hurtful things. She asked me to apologize to you." Yi Pin hooked the corner of his mouth with a smile.
This woman really had a lot of tricks up her sleeve. She was the one who had been so pushy, but now she made it seem like Shen Yu was the unreasonable and petty one.
Time seemed to fly by quickly.
When Shen Yu turned around, he saw that Yi Pin had already fallen asleep. His closed eyes looked so gentle, completely different from his usual self.
As he watched, a strange feeling welled up in his heart. His long eyelashes covered his usually bright eyes.
It seemed that everything was just right. Looking at his lips, they were slightly red.
"Yi Pin!"
Shen Yu called his name a few times, but there was no response.
"This pig. He sleeps so soundly."
Shen Yu said with a doting smile on his face.
He gently kissed Yi Pin on the lips. His lips were a bit moist, but he really enjoyed it.
He even didn't want to stop.
For the whole night, he just quietly watched that handsome face with a sweet smile on the corner of his mouth. He wondered what wonderful dream Yi Pin was having.
Shen Yu's heart was filled with strange feelings. He had never felt this way about anyone before.
After getting along with him, this feeling became even stronger. His eyes always followed Yi Pin around, and his heart was always fluttering because of him.
The next morning, when Shen Yu woke up, he opened his eyes groggily and saw a cold and handsome face with big, unblinking eyes in front of him.
"Damn it! What are you doing so early in the morning?" Yi Pin said in a daze. He rubbed his eyes and tried to recall what had happened last night. It seemed that the two of them had talked about a lot of things from their childhood.
And then... he had no more memories.
He looked around the room layout and suddenly scratched his head awkwardly.
"Why didn't you wake me up and let me go back to my room to sleep?" Yi Pin said awkwardly and stammeringly.
"You have such a bad case of morning grumpiness. I was afraid you'd beat me up." Shen Yu hooked the corner of his mouth with a smile that was a bit mysterious.
"Pfft!"
Then he saw Shen Yu wearing a sports suit with a few beads of sweat on his face.
It seemed that he had already been for a morning jog.
These days, Shen Yu used to drag him along for a jog. But after that incident, he never invited him again.
"Get up quickly and have breakfast. Then go to work." Shen Yu hooked the corner of his mouth. The sweat on his face seemed about to drip.
Yi Pin looked at him and suddenly reached out to wipe the sweat off his face.
The action was very ambiguous. Both of them stood still, looking into each other's eyes.
Finally, Yi Pin broke the awkward silence. He quickly got up and walked into the bathroom.
Shen Yu let out a sigh of relief. He felt his whole body getting hot. It was winter, so why was it so hot?
He slowly took off his coat and stood still, with a smile on his face.
He couldn't describe that feeling. He just felt very happy.
During breakfast, neither of them said a word, but the atmosphere wasn't awkward.
After the incident between Shen Yu and Zixuan, Yi Pin and Zixuan rarely interacted. Apart from sending each other good morning and good night messages on their phones, they had no other contact.
And every time it was Zixuan who took the initiative to find Yi Pin, while Yi Pin tried his best to avoid her.
He didn't know if it was because of the incident and he had a psychological shadow, or if it was just an excuse to keep his distance.
Everything returned to normal.
His relationship with Shen Yu was still ambiguously undefined, but neither of them wanted to break this layer of mystery.
This feeling was great. The two of them were getting closer and closer. Even when Shen Yu went on a business trip, Yi Pin would feel very lonely at home. Maybe that's just how people are. Once they get used to something, they can never get rid of it.
Yi Pin took a few days off. After working in the law firm for a few days, he received a new case.
This case was very tricky because the other side seemed to have a strong background.
A female student from a certain university had inexplicably fallen into the water. First, the school informed them that the beautiful girl had made an appointment with someone to commit suicide.
But as the girl's parents, they were naturally very sad and couldn't accept it. They were extremely unwilling.
She was just a young girl in the prime of her life, but suddenly she was gone. Her mother went to the school just to find out exactly how her daughter had died.
But the school always thought that she was just causing trouble. They kept pushing the matter aside and passing the buck.
They even advised the mother of the deceased not to spread rumors for the sake of the school's reputation.
