Chen Ting counted down the days on his fingers, eagerly tearing off a page from the calendar each morning, wishing time would move faster. But at the same time, he felt he ought to stay home longer to keep his mom company. The contradiction left him torn. The Chen family had always been small, with few relatives to visit during the new year, so the holidays felt especially long and monotonous this year. His father, Zhao Ping, wasn’t a local. He had followed his own father downriver, and it was…- 116.2 K • Completed
A week later, Pei Yiyao boarded a flight abroad, beginning his journey of overseas study alone. Chen Ting didn’t go to the airport to see him off, because he still had one last exam. He merely glanced up on his way into the test hall. A faint streak from an airplane stretched across the sky. Whether it was his flight or not, he couldn’t say. The final exam was Comprehensive English. It ended at four-thirty in the afternoon. As soon as it was over, everyone came out of the building saying goodbye,…- 116.2 K • Completed
The dinner was held at a Sichuan restaurant on the campus food street. Since coming out wasn’t something to shout from the rooftops, Chen Ting had gone the extra mile and booked a private room. But the whole thing went surprisingly smoothly, almost anticlimactically. Yang Shulin had already guessed it. As for Bai Yu and Jiang Hai, the two academic overachievers who had eyes only for their textbooks, they accepted it easily enough. Especially once they learned that Chen Ting’s boyfriend was Pei…- 116.2 K • Completed
When Pei Yiyao stepped out of the shower, Chen Ting was already in bed. A lump was curled under the blanket, round and raised like a fat-headed fish. Pei Yiyao lightened his steps so he wouldn’t disturb him, and, worried he might get cold, he turned the room temperature up a few degrees. After that, he quietly sat down at the hotel room’s built-in desk and opened the computer to do some reading online. The entire time, he never went near the bed. Judging by the way he settled in, it looked like…- 116.2 K • Completed
A soft breeze brushed past his ear. Chen Ting took the hand Pei Yiyao offered and climbed through the window, landing steadily by his side. The whole thing felt a little surreal. He had always been a good kid, and this was the first time in his life he had ever climbed out of a window. Pei Yiyao, on the other hand, looked like he had done it a hundred times. Still holding Chen Ting’s hand, he led him over a row of shrubs, across the tree-lined path, heading straight for the school gate. “Where…- 116.2 K • Completed
Monday classes began, and sure enough, everyone’s attention had shifted to Zhou Cheng and Pei Yiyao. Even so, Chen Ting’s own classmates were far more concerned about him. The moment there was a break, they gathered around to talk. “Ting Ting, don’t let those online comments get to you.” “Yeah, who knows what they’re trying to stir up. As long as we know what kind of person you are, that’s enough.” “But how did Su Luo and Zhou Cheng’s mess end up involving you? Do you even…- 116.2 K • Completed
Chen Ting’s grades were solid, though never outstanding. He was always somewhere in the middle of the pack.Every now and then, if luck was on his side, he might even score first or second in class. He was especially good at listening comprehension, maybe because of the character “Ting” in his name. Yang Shulin once said Chen Ting was the bottom of the top-tier students. If he just tried a little harder, he could be a straight-A student. But Chen Ting wasn’t the type who believed in striving…- 116.2 K • Completed
At that moment, Pei Yiyao found himself at a complete loss. Because after he kissed Chen Ting… Chen Ting started crying again. This time he did not sob out loud, but tears very clearly slipped from the corners of his eyes. His cheeks were flushed red, and he looked utterly pitiful. Pei Yiyao tried to wipe away the tears and pull him into his arms to comfort him, but then worried that getting too close would only make things worse. Chen Ting blinked a few times, letting Pei Yiyao stew in his…- 116.2 K • Completed
“Look, look! It’s Pei Yiyao!” “Judging by the direction he’s headed… is he going to duel Chen Ting?!” “Ooooh, is sexy guy about to fall out with sweety boy?” “What kind of nonsense is that?” “It’s what those girls were saying…” Pei Yiyao strode down the tree-lined path, cutting through the chatter like wind. He paid no attention to anything around him. Neither sexy guy nor sweety boy could stir even the slightest ripple in his mind. The only thing he felt was…- 116.2 K • Completed
Chen Ting was momentarily dazzled by Pei Yiyao’s smile. It took him a while to snap out of it and start seriously wondering when he had become someone who could be swayed by good looks. The moment that thought occurred to him, his expression turned unusually serious. And once the movie started, it grew even more so. Even more serious than him was Pei Yiyao. The two of them sat in the prime seventh-row seats, both wearing nearly identical deadpan expressions as they watched a group of teenagers…- 116.2 K • Completed
