Chapter 258: Extra "After the Reunion" (IV)
He Yu woke up because of a phone call.
He'd put his cell phone on vibrate when he'd entered the library, but it still made an ear-splitting, noisy racket when he dropped it on the table.
Xie Qingcheng looked at the number display, is a high-end hotel in Huzhou called, he did not pay too much attention, presumably again He Yu and others to talk about what business cooperation.
He Yu, on the other hand, was a bit nervous when he was woken up and looked at the number. He quickly got up and went to the stairwell to answer the international roaming call, and came back after about five or six minutes.
"Something wrong?" Xie Qingcheng asked him.
"No." He Yu laughed a little, and sure enough, he said, "...... project cooperation is just that."
Xie Qingcheng did not ask any further questions.
He Yu saw that his shoulders seemed to be a bit stiff and thought that he had just slept on his shoulder for a long time, so he walked over to him, put his long clean fingers on Xie Qingcheng's shoulder and slowly rubbed him.
"I've been sleeping for ages, why don't you shake me up."
"Hmm?" Xie Qingcheng paused and said lightly, "What's wrong with that, it's only right to take care of you."
He Yu's heart suddenly moved, and his dark eyes looked at Xie Qingcheng's side face.
In fact, he also thought carefully about why he would be so obsessed with Xie Qingcheng. Xie Qingcheng's appearance is certainly beautiful, and his character is also excellent, but his shortcomings are also very obvious - he is too cold, quiet, often do not like to be angry, so many of the men and women who are attracted by his handsome appearance, but also because of his human indifference and ultimately failed to return to their homes. Therefore, many men and women attracted by his handsome appearance, but because of his shallow human nature ultimately failed to return.
When I first pursued Xie Qingcheng, I also felt that kissing him was like kissing ice and snow.
He had even wondered more than once whether he would never be able to warm up to this man in his life. But even with such heavy doubts and despair in his heart, he never thought of giving up his pursuit of him.
Later he realized, because most people in the world think about "how you should do for me," but Xie Qingcheng is different, he always thinks about "how I should do for you".
Because of his illness, because of his family's misfortune, He Yu has not enjoyed the so-called care that he has taken for granted from anyone since he was a child. For an ordinary person, a parent's love is unconditional, but unfortunately, he has hardly ever experienced it.
Then Xie Qingcheng appeared and gave him a sense of security he had never felt before.
Dr. Xie had broad shoulders and a tall, straight figure, and although he was cold and aloof, always wrapped in the cold scent of disinfectant and medication, he was there for He Yu every time he needed him most.
Although he said, "We're just doctors and patients."
But he would take He Yu to the amusement park, and when He Yu got wet, he would sit down and blow-dry his hair with his own hands. He would read to He Yu in a low, magnetic voice, and then remember to tuck him in after he fell asleep before turning off the light. He would make him a bowl of small wontons in chicken soup and watch him eat it slowly.
Only Xie Qingcheng has done these things.
Only Xie Qingcheng did it, but never put it in his heart.
He Yu loved his selflessness and hated his heartlessness, so Xie Qingcheng became his heroin, giving him an addiction he couldn't quit.
"Have you finished your book?" Xie Qingcheng asked him this suddenly as he rubbed his shoulders.
He Yu: "Finished."
"Good. Then you talk about the reading."
"......"
What's this? A one-second dream to go back to school and answer the professor's questions?
He Yu stopped massaging his hands and looked at Xie Qingcheng with his cheeks resting on his head : "...... It's okay, but I want to ask, what's the point of brother doing this?"
Xie Qingcheng knitted his brows slightly and paused for a moment before coughing lightly and saying, "A date."
He Yu froze.
Xie Qingcheng raised his dark eyebrows, "What. Don't you feel good?"
"......" He Yu stiffened for a few moments, raised his hand charmingly against his forehead, trying to hold it back, but couldn't, and puffed out a laugh anyway.
Xie Qingcheng had an uneasy look on his face, "What are you laughing at, those girls used to like to ask me to go to the library."
He Yu didn't smile anymore, but there was still a pleasing light in his eyes, "So did you promise."
Xie Qingcheng didn't say anything.
In fact, when he was in college, because he could not win, and finally simply took a piece of paper, written on the "academic not yet, do not fall in love" eight big words, directly thrown on their desks, causing the girls to be a piece of grief, the boys a lot of speechless.
He Yu continued to press, "Did you promise?"
Xie Qingcheng knocked him on the head with a book of poems, "I only invited you."
What is called the warbler fly grass grows, Xie Qingcheng immediately saw. The light in He Yu's eyes is even more blazing, he smiled and hugged Xie Qingcheng's shoulder, swaying back and forth twice.
"Xie Qingcheng, you know, I like your ruthlessness so much now."
Xie Qingcheng still didn't feel very comfortable with such intimate behavior in public, but he was still very indulgent towards He Yu after a long time of separation from him, and didn't push him away despite his awkwardness.
Just a couple coughs, "Come to discuss the poetry book."
He Yu smiled and shook his head, "...... It's better if I take you on a date."
It's better to leave such things to the young.
When the two of them went out from the library, the sky started to turn cloudy and it looked like it was going to rain. He Yu originally wanted to take Xie Qingcheng to play some outdoor programs, but he was afraid that if the rain really came down in the middle of the program, it would spoil the fun, not to mention that it might make his brother Xie catch a cold.
Xie Qingcheng's body has not yet fully recovered, and a little wind and rain will make He Yu feel like an enemy.
So He Yu thought about it and said, "Let's go see a movie."
It's just a movie, as if that's so hip. Isn't that the most unusual way to go on a date? And it's out of the ordinary.
Xie Qingcheng heart more or less some daddy-boy disobedience, but he let He Yu, did not show it, only calmly: "Well, you see to it."
He Yu searches for a new movie theater nearby, a sunken underground theater with a hit popcorn hero movie lined up for the most recent showing.
He Yu was delighted: "Just watch this one."
Xie Qingcheng swept a glance, in the way of the two reunion warmth has not yet passed, and he also wanted to take care of He Yu's self-esteem, so that the child to feel happy, slowly out of the shadow of impotence, so the "this is what a bad movie," stopped between the teeth, hard to swallow back again.
"Yes." Xie Qingcheng said, "I'll accompany you."
He has never experienced this kind of thing in his life, even if he used to watch movies with Li Ruoqiu, the film is also his choice, either pure literature or semi-literary films, and a few times even more outrageous, directly watching the "Mysteries of the Earth" and other science fiction films.
He hadn't imagined that he would one day be standing in front of the snack counter with a Spider-Man 5 movie voucher in hand, waiting for the smiling waiter to hand him his popcorn.
Because it was a weekend, the movie theater was packed, and He Yu chose a corner seat in the last row. Xie Qingcheng thought that He Yu was really bad at choosing seats--
Can you get a good view from this position?
What a small child with a big mouth.
Before the movie started, the theater buzzed with the murmur of the audience mingling, Xie Qingcheng set the popcorn between the two of them, He Yu took one look, smiled and held up the bucket of popcorn, "I'll take it."
"...... Don't your hands get sore."
He Yu shook his head and took a full and sweet buttery popcorn and handed it to Xie Qingcheng's lips.
When Xie Qingcheng bites into the popcorn, he vaguely reveals a bit of his soft tongue, and He Yu can't help but feel another flutter as he looks at his face in the ambiguous light.
He really wanted to kiss Xie Qingcheng's slightly cool lips, which were thin and soft with a bit of medicine's purity, and in front of others, these beautiful lips had always only said some cold or calm words.
Whether he was a doctor or a professor, Xie Qingcheng was notoriously handsome and cold. Especially when he was on the podium, no matter how much the students below looked at him with longing eyes, he just talked about his knowledge without any hesitation.
The voice is low and magnetic, mesmerizing, but unfortunately it is always "social psychology in the clinical field", not the words of love that girls are looking forward to.
But now in the palm of his hand, Xie Qingcheng can be different.
He could hear the low voice, broken, hoarse ...... those stray syllables escaping from the lips he had kissed until they were red, and he could kiss it back.
He could clutch the hand of the man who held the slender whip in the medical school classroom and smell the scent of medicine on that wrist.
Then when class is over, just ......
He Yu coughed lightly, a little hard to sit still, although he chose the seat is very remote, but the movie theater is actually monitored, in the darkness some details can be seen clearly when they are stretched out.
He Yu then changed his sitting position, and in order to stop himself from getting more and more wasted, He Yu coughed softly and talked to Xie Qingcheng about something else with his red ears, "Brother Xie, do you remember when we used to watch movies together? It was when I was still in school."
Xie Qingcheng gave a "hmm".
He Yu drove a fucking sports car to pick him up and forced him to go to the movie theater, and the two of them had the bad luck to meet a pair of gay men in love while watching the movie, and the gay men kissed next to the two of them, and at the end of the kiss, they left the theater early in a state of dissatisfaction.
Xie Qingcheng was particularly speechless, very embarrassed, he and He Yu at that time, although already had sex, but both still consider themselves homophobic straight men, so the eyes of a pair, decided to leave this is a place of wrongdoing, who knew that the side of a big sister not long eyes, but even said that the two of them are also recognized as gay, pointing at their noses and cursing, the argument intensified, and the audience is not interested in the film! The audience is not interested in the movie, to see them fight, and there are even people who raised their cell phones ready to take pictures.
He Yu somehow managed to cover up Xie Qingcheng with his clothes without thinking about it.
Xie Qingcheng: "Why did you only think of covering my face at that time?"
"I wasn't afraid of you being photographed." He Yu was very good at coaxing people, "You're a university professor with a big face, if it gets spread on the internet and adds some more fuel to the fire, you'll be in trouble."
Xie Qingcheng laughed a little, "Is that what you thought at the time?"
"Yes, yes." He Yu met Xie Qingcheng's gaze and suddenly felt a little weak--in fact, he didn't have any specific thoughts at all at that time, it was just an instinctive reaction.
But that moment of not wanting Xie Qingcheng to be hurt by others was indeed true.
He probably had heavy beast instincts, and the people he touched, even if they hadn't yet developed extremely strong feelings of love, even if they were still pins and needles with each other, he was still going to protect them.
Xie Qingcheng supported his chin with his hand and said faintly, "Well, but why do I feel that you're lying."
"...... I didn't!"
"You're not mentally prepared for the tendency to unconsciously purse your lips when your heart lies." Xie Qingcheng sighed, "Never realized it yourself?"
"......"
"You've been like this since you were a kid, you can't hide it from me."
The tips of He Yu's ears turned even redder, "Where do I remember what I was thinking at the time ...... Well, I was just trying to make you happy, so are you going to punish me for lying?"
Xie Qingcheng : "To be punished."
He Yu was slightly aggravated.
Prof. Hsieh is still the same Prof. Hsieh, fatherly, and it's useless to pander to him when you make a mistake.
But he was unwilling to give up on this and still tried in a small voice, "I'm sorry, Brother Xie, I was trying to please you too. Is it okay if you don't punish me?"
"Not good."
"Shea ......"
"The punishment is still due."
"Professor ......"
"That's even less likely to let up."
"Brother ......"
"No."
Forget it, I'm going out on a limb.
He Yu thought that he had already taken advantage of him in bed, so let's not worry about verbal matters.
He knew Xie Qingcheng's soft spot, so he dropped some face and coaxed him with his eyes wide open in the manner of a young and beautiful male college student, "Husband."
"......"
The movie started at this time, and the hall was completely darkened. Xie Qingcheng suddenly put the jacket he had taken off and held in his hand between him and He Yu.
"It's no use screaming, the punishment is still due."
Xie Qingcheng's deep and melodious voice lingered in the absolute darkness and gentle safety that only belonged to them.
He finished the sentence, then before He Yu could react, he turned his face sideways and under the cover of his jacket, he kissed He Yu's lips in a very manly manner.
He Yu did not expect the so-called punishment is actually this, suddenly opened his eyes wide, buzzing in the ears, tailbone like instantly run up the tingling current, rise up a wave of excitement unbearable heat ......
