Never Meeting Again In Our Next Life (Living Life Over) - Volume 1 (36)
Zhou Shuo accompanied Xia Lin around the Cao Chang, and he found that Xia Lin didn’t seem to be in a hurry to find anything, but was just walking aimlessly, not knowing what he was thinking about.1
As night gradually fell, Zhou Shuo couldn’t help but remind him: “Second Young Master, do you want to go to the cafeteria to eat first? If you don’t go, you won’t be able to buy food…”
Xia Lin slowly regained his consciousness, looked at the sunset that was almost invisible on the horizon, and murmured in a low voice: “Sure enough, there is such a thing as fate… ha.”2
Zhou Shuo didn’t hear clearly and asked, “Second Young Master, what did you just say?”
”Nothing,” Xia Lin said as he turned around and walked towards the cafeteria, “Let’s go eat.”
When the two came to the cafeteria, there were not many people there.
They randomly picked a table and put the plates on it. Zhou Shuo took two bowls and went to scoop out the rice. Xia Lin sat at the table and waited boredly. He accidentally saw Yu Luotong passing by the aisle with the leftover plates. The moment they looked at each other, Yu Luotong looked a little surprised and embarrassed.
Normally, Xia Lin would have pretended not to see him and looked away as if nothing had happened. But this time, he suddenly called out to Yu Luotong.
Yu Luotong was startled for a moment, stopped and looked at him.
”Can you sit down for a while? I have something to ask you.” Xia Lin’s tone sounded quite kind, which flattered Yu Luotong.
He thought for a moment, nodded, put down his plate, and sat down diagonally across from Xia Lin.
Xia Lin thought about it for a moment and asked, “You and…Song Yan, are you together?”
Yu Luotong didn’t expect that he would ask this when he opened his mouth. After being stunned for a long time, he said, “Why do you ask that?”
”This afternoon, I saw you in the classroom…well, I bumped into you accidentally, and I won’t go anywhere to tell you, so you don’t have to worry.”1
Yu Luotong wasn’t worried that he would talk about it everywhere, but she felt a little chilled by his attitude when he mentioned it. He lowered his head and was silent for a while, then said softly: “Yes, I am with him.”15
Xia Lin didn’t speak again for a long time.
It took so long that Yu Luotong thought that he was not going to continue chatting anymore. Suddenly, he heard Xia Lin speak again: “Since we are together, let’s be nice to him. That guy Song Yan… is actually very stubborn. Some things may I won’t think too carefully about it, so please be patient.”
Yu Luotong originally just wanted to provoke him, but he didn’t expect that after waiting for so long, he would hear such a sentence. He was so angry that he almost burst into tears.10
He turned his head slightly and desperately told himself to live up to his expectations, not to shed tears at this time, not to make the other party look down upon him even more.
After a moment, he turned around and gave Xia Lin a bright smile: “You don’t need to worry about this. Since I have chosen Song Yan, of course I will treat him twice as well.”1
After saying that, he picked up the dinner plate and left quickly.
When Zhou Shuo came back with two bowls of rice, he saw Yu Luotong leaving in a hurry. He glanced at Xia Lin strangely and saw that he had returned to the indifferent expression of “Don’t talk to me”, so he closed his eyes very wisely. On the mouth.
After the evening self-study ended that night, Xia Lin for the first time did not stay in the classroom for half an hour longer. Instead, he picked up his schoolbag and turned to Song Yan and said, “Is it convenient for us to go together?”
Song Yan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, “It’s convenient.” His mouth almost reached behind his ears.2
The two of them walked out of the carport pushing their bicycles. Xia Lin turned back to Zhou Shuo and said, “You go first. I’ll chat with Song Yan for a while.”
As his bodyguard, Zhou Shuo naturally didn’t dare to leave Xia Lin alone. He thought about it and said, “I’ll wait for you at the intersection ahead.”
Song Yan didn’t know why Xia Lin suddenly took the initiative to chat with him, so he pushed his bicycle and followed Xia Lin, and found that he was a little nervous and inexplicably looking forward to it.
Xia Lin walked out of the school gate, avoiding the endless crowd of students, and led Song Yan into a secluded path.
The two walked in silence for a while. Song Yan looked at Xia Lin from time to time, wanting to wait for him to speak first, but couldn’t help but want to break the silence. Just when he was so entangled, he heard Xia Lin slowly say: “Song Yan, you have already made up your mind to take this path, right?”
Song Yan looked around and asked, “Which way?”3
Just listen to Xia Lin continue: “Are you sure you like men?”
”Huh?” The topic changed a bit too quickly. Song Yan was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he had asked Yu Luotong for a test in the afternoon.
Although Yu Luotong said that his sexual orientation was not yet certain, he felt that if he denied that he liked men so hastily, Xia Lin might have to divide him into his own circle with an indifferent expression. In order to become “the same person” as Xia Lin “Humanoid”, even if he pretends to be gay, he still has to pretend to be gay.2
Thinking of this, Song Yan nodded without hesitation: “I’m sure, I like men.”
