“I’ll tell you after getting off.”

They endured with great difficulty to arrive at their stop. Ye Zhou pulled him and followed out with the crowd to rush off the bus. Ye Zhou gasped for breath and said, “Can you continue?”

“Didn’t I ask you yesterday if you have someone you like?”

Ye Zhou touched his nose and said, “Why are you talking about this again? I’ve told you that we haven’t even started yet.”

Haven’t even started yet??

Not at all!

In the morning, Shang Ming hadn’t yet figured out why Shang Jin was targeting him, but after probing a bit while they were eating, he roughly had an idea in his heart. It was also because of this understanding that Shang Ming decided to turn a blind eye to Shang Jin’s rudeness. After all, anyone who saw the person they like hugging someone else and sleeping together for a night wouldn’t be happy in their heart.

In one short morning, Shang Ming, as an outsider, could sense that Ye Zhou was meticulous down to the smallest detail with Shang Jin, and Shang Jin wasn’t without feeling for Ye Zhou.

If the one Ye Zhou liked was Shang Jin, it would be to everyone’s delight and satisfaction if the two broke through the paper window between them. How could he say that nothing had started yet?

He’d clearly come to relieve his boredom. In the end, he still need to pull the strings for his good friend. Shang Ming felt that his responsibility was heavy and his heart was so tired. He planned out his thoughts and said, “In fact, between two boys, it’s the same whoever takes the initiative. Many things is just the matter of a sentence. You should tell what you feel in your heart to the other. When you say it out, the person would understand.”

Ye Zhou sighed and said, “The crucial point is that I’m not sure the other person can accept boys. After all, being together with a boy, there would definitely be a lot of strange gazes in the outside world.”

Shang Ming blinked. No matter how he looked, Shang Jin didn’t seem like a person who cared about gossip. There was no need to worry about this. “Society is now more inclusive. Even if a boy was together with a boy, the situation wouldn’t be so difficult.”

“Even so, I’m still worry about this.” Ye Zhou sighed, “But now, the most important thing is to pull closer to the other person.”

Shang Ming was astonished. “Isn’t being under the same roof close enough?”

Ye Zhou didn’t understand. “What under the same roof? We haven’t spent time alone yet.”

Shang Ming was dumbfounded. “Haven’t spent time alone?”

“Yeah. It’s been almost two months since we last met.”

“Don’t…” Shang Ming’s brain had a hint of confusion. “Don’t you like Shang Jin?”

“Shang Jin??” Ye Zhou was scared till his face turned red. “How can I like Shang Jin?? Are you kidding? Heavens, even if the whole class misunderstood me, how can even you be like this?”

Ye Zhou didn’t look like he was lying. Shang Ming doubtfully said, “Then who do you like?”

Ye Zhou hurriedly pulled out the photo of Tang Dongdong and said, “Here, his name is Tang Dongdong from an outside school.”

Having seen Shang Jin and now looking at Tang Dongdong, this was quite a gap of difference. At his side was Shang Jin who, from a guy’s point of view, was handsome enough to pressure them. So how did Ye Zhou look at Tang Dongdong? Thinking so, Shang Ming directly asked, “Why do you like him?”

“There’s no ‘why’ in the matter of love, but…” Ye Zhou mysteriously said, “I love him at first sight. Don’t you think this is dramatic? I never thought that falling in love at first sight would happen to me.”

“That is to say, you don’t know him at all?”

“I’ll know him after getting along with him for a while. It’s also the pleasure of gradually discovering the other person’s strengths in the process of getting to know each other.” Ye Zhou was a bit careless and his mouth said something shocking, “Actually saying that I like Shang Jin is too inconceivable. Even if I could like Zhou Wendao, I wouldn’t be able to like Shang Jin. Who’s Shang Jin? The enemy who’s forever pushing down on my head!”

“Enemy?” Shang Ming said with a laugh, “I really can’t make out that he’s your enemy.” According to his day of observation, Shang Jin was a very casual person in life and it was impossible for him to clean up his table. Linking this with the tidying method, it was most likely that Ye Zhou had done it. In the entire dorm, the other two people’s desks were also chaotic, but Ye Zhou only helped Shang Jin to tidy up. What kind of enemy was this?

Ye Zhou dry coughed and said, “The enemy is a friend now. When it comes to him and me, it’s also really dramatic enough. When school started last year…”

Ye Zhou recounted almost a year’s worth of encounters to Shang Ming. The more Shang Ming heard, the more he wanted to roll his eyes.

The two men went to an empty space and sat down. Shang Ming wasn’t resigned and asked, “I still can’t figure out: what do you like about Tang Dongdong?”

“Didn’t I tell you it was love at first sight? It’s like love, what a dramatic beginning.”

It seemed that Ye Zhou wasn’t aware of this side at all. It could be said that he’d really and thoroughly excluded Shang Jin from his options. But Shang Jin definitely wasn’t like a person who’d sit and wait for death. Shang Ming asked, “Then if there was a day when Shang Jin confessed to you?”

“How could that be!” Ye Zhou hurriedly said, “Didn’t I just tell you that after the misunderstanding happened, I told Shang Jin that I really didn’t like him and told him many times. How could he do such a thing? Besides, Shang Jin is my rival. I have always been pressured by him, so how can I succumb to him?”

It could be said that Shang Ming understood it. Ye Zhou had placed Shang Jin on the opposite side from the beginning. Even if his feelings for Shang Jin had changed, but Shang Jin’s position in his subconsciousness hadn’t changed. Similarly, it was the same for Tang Dongdong. At the beginning, he’d put him in the love at first sight position, so even if he didn’t know much about Tang Dongdong and his feelings weren’t deep, he had always firmly believed that Tang Dongdong was the one he liked.

Shang Ming rubbed his temples. As long as Ye Zhou didn’t have a day when he became aware of this, then even if he was in contact with Shang Jin for longer and their feelings grew deeper, there wouldn’t be any development. Thinking of this, Shang Jin was rather pitiful.

After a good while without hearing Shang Ming’s reply, Ye Zhou poked him and asked, “What are you thinking?’

Shang Ming sighed. “Just thinking…people can be stupid, and they deserve to take more detours.”
