The heart feels like it's been struck by thunder

Lu Xun walks towards the small balcony where Ye Yao is resting with a cold drink for him in one hand and the atlas in the other.

He won't help that self to hide the evidence, only Ye Yao will be vigilant and ruthless when facing that ungrateful man.

What if Ye Yao knows nothing about it, what if he's lied to by that guy again?

He couldn't put Ye Yao at risk just to keep his image unsullied.

*

Ye Yao lay back on the recliner and watched the birds flying outside the window, listening to Lu Xun's footsteps getting closer and closer.

The wall of the still-chilling glass touched his cheek, and Ye Yao reached up to hold the mischievous hand down, looking up.

Palm to palm, Lu Xun froze slightly.

"You ...... wouldn't have been so direct before." Lu Xun said.

When he used to put water on Ye Yao's face, Ye Yao would just take it and when he was in a good mood, he might slap him jokingly, without touching his hand.

"Yeah, we've been together for years, relationships evolve." Ye Yao took a sip of water, "What book did you get this time?"

Lu Xun didn't take the book out right away: "You finish your water first."

What book is so secretive?

Ye Yao drank half the glass and put the water on the small table before Lu Xun handed Ye Yao the book.

It was a book without a cover, and it was impossible to tell what it was from the outside. Ye Yao turned the book over and saw what was inside, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

...... Most of the poses above, he has experienced first hand.

He had wondered where Lu Xun had learned all those strange poses from before, but it turned out to be so.

Lu Xun is really exceptionally good at this.

Ye Yao has been through many battles, a small picture book is no longer a shock to him, he opened a few pages and then closed the book and returned it to Lu Xun's hand.

"It's interesting, you keep reading." Ye Yao said.

Lu Xun's dark eyes looked at Ye Yao, and after he was sure that Ye Yao had no other reaction, he half-squinted his eyes.

"You don't think it's wrong to watch this?" Lu Xun said coldly, "Ye Yao, I was never interested in this kind of stuff before."

Ye Yao doesn't deny Lu Xun's claim that in high school Lu Xun was indeed a well-known high-cool guy, the school god, who was not interested in this kind of physical needs.

It was only later, when he was in college, that he and Lu Xun went to the bathhouse together to scrub, and Lu Xun started to get out of hand.

He was the one who started Lu Xun's desire and need for something he knew nothing about in high school.

Ye Yao couldn't just say that the things on the charts were learned by Lu Xun and practiced with him, so he had to soften his voice to persuade Lu Xun "Look, you're already over thirty, you're an energetic male, it's normal to read this kind of book, isn't it? Even if you have to find someone to start a family because of this, it's still normal."

"Normal? I don't think so." Lu Xun, who was standing with his eyes half-lidded, locked eyes with Ye Yao, and when he realized that Ye Yao hadn't thought in the direction of him looking for someone else outside, his voice couldn't help but grow colder, "It's only losers who can't control their lower halves, and I don't need to look for someone else to give vent to such desires."

Ye Yao was silent as he remembered the old days of his friends.

It used to be the same way, as his best friend, Lu Xun wouldn't let him fall in love and would drive away anyone who tried to get close to him. Lu Xun himself adopts the same standard, banishing anyone who tries to get close to him, leaving him alone.

Lu Xun as long as they are one-on-one between them, not accepting anyone to come between them.

And right now, Lu Xun is clearly very angry with his thirty-year-old self.

Realizing that his tone was perhaps too aggressive, Lu Xun took a deep breath, "Ye Yao, I don't put you first, and there's likewise no need for you to do this to me. You don't have a date, I don't have a date, that's only fair. If one day in the future I'm out looking for someone, you can just stop giving me face."

Ye Yao was moved.

Lu Xun's remarks were made entirely from his point of view, and Lu Xun could not have said those words without a little bit of selfishness.

Even though Lu Xun thinks they are just friends, Lu Xun still tries his best to give him the best he can and doesn't want him to suffer.

Ye Yao patted the seat beside him and told Lu Xun to sit down.

Lu Xun obeyed and sat next to him.

"That's right, you can't do that anymore." Ye Yao put on a ferocious tone, "You can only spend your free time with me, you can't divide your time with anyone else, and you have to report to me if you look at anyone other than your partners. Keep that thing of yours under control, if I find out that you use it on other people, I'll make you suffer, and we won't have to see each other again. I don't accept friends who can't control their lower bodies, is that clear?"

This kind of overbearing terms is a normal person can not stand, husband and wife relationship can also be because of this paragraph and quarrel a few sentences, if it is the relationship between friends, normal people hear the friend tube so much long ago a two-shot, before leaving also have to curse a few words of psychosis.

What's the point of being a friend when you're even in charge of your friend's little old brother? Why don't you just go to the top?

But the coldness on Lu Xun's face faded because of these outrageous demands, and in just a few words he was so happy to hear that he shook Ye Yao's hand beautifully.

"Not bad," Lu Xun complimented Ye Yao on his bullying, "It's just that the word count is a bit low, so you can add it slowly in the future."

Ye Yao laughed softly and leaned on Lu Xun's shoulder.

Lu Xun changed his position so that Ye Yao could lean better, while exhaling a mouthful of depressed air in his mind.

His plan was finally accomplished successfully, and if he neglected Ye Yao again, he thought Ye Yao would gradually realize that it was not worth it and break up with him.

*

It was the night when he could sleep with Ye Yao again, and Lu Xun started to get a little nervous as he listened to the water running in the bathroom.

Will ...... Ye Yao still sleep in his arms in the middle of the night tonight?

As Ye Yao's best friend, he has no problem giving Ye Yao a human pillow to cuddle with for as long as Ye Yao wants.

But what if Ye Yao accidentally kisses him while he's in a sleepy daze like he was this morning?

...... Ye Yao has such a soft mouth.

Some things just can't be thought of over and over again, or it would be disrespectful to Ye Yao.

Lu Xun is restless, lying on the bed to open the phone to forcefully divert their attention.

He shopped around in WeChat first and didn't find any suspicious chats.

But that's not surprising; after all, it's easy for Ye Yao to get his hands on his cell phone and see the records, and as long as the thirty-year-old is a little more cautious, he's unlikely to leave such an easy-to-detect trail.

It's so hypocritical of Ye Yao to want to continue living with Ye Yao while at the same time fooling around.

Lu Xun clicked on the chat logs with Ye Yao, in which there were many records of the end of the video call, and some simple statements, such as what he said to Ye Yao, "I miss you so much today, he can't eat without seeing Ye Yao" and other greasy sentences.

But even with such a greasy sentence, Ye Yao replied to him every time, telling him to have a good dinner and meet up in the evening.

Ye Yao was so nice to him.

Lu Xun originally wanted to look at his cell phone to keep himself from continuing to ramble, but looking at these chats and imagining Ye Yao's expression when he replied to these sentences, he began to be more fidgety.

That him and Ye Yao, so close.

Lu Xun puts down his cell phone with a grimace in search of other pastimes as he turns on the small table lamp on his nightstand before going back to pulling out the lower drawer.

With this pull, Lu Xun realized something was wrong.

The nightstand on his side of the bed was, in fact, locked.

What else needs to be locked?

Lu Xun's heart flashed with a trace of doubt, and at that moment, the bathroom door snapped softly, Ye Yao stepped out from inside, and Lu Xun's attention immediately shifted.

Ye Yao smells so good after a bath.

Ye Yao's gonna sleep with him again.

Ye Yao's mouth is so soft.

The blood flow speeds up, and Lu Xun lies on the bed with Ye Yao again as if nothing has happened.

After a bedtime chat with Ye Yao, the bedroom lights are turned off, leaving the room dimly lit by the nightlight.

The beds are soft and fragrant, the room is quiet, and it's a perfect place to sleep, but Lu Xun doesn't feel like sleeping.

He waited in the midst of the darkness, and after a while, Ye Yao, who seemed to have formed the habit of sleeping with a pillow when he was growing up, rolled over to his side.

There was still a bit of distance between them, and Lu Xun moved over to Ye Yao and got on top of him as he wanted.

Feeling the heat, Ye Yao leaned over and buried herself in Lu Xun's arms.

The scent of fragrant shower gel dyed the quilt, and as they faced each other, Lu Xun could easily see Ye Yao's sleeping face.

Ye Yao's sleeping face was serene, his brow and eye bones were superior, his nose straight, and he looked very good even in this dim light.

Lu Xun traced the contours of Ye Yao's face with his gaze, his eyes tracing from the eyes to the bridge of the nose, and finally slowly falling to Ye Yao's beautifully shaped lips.

He never used to touch Ye Yao's lips because there was no reason for him, as Ye Yao's friend, to touch Ye Yao's lips.

But this morning, he experienced this softness.

Lu Xun's eyes were downcast, staring unblinkingly at Ye Yao's lips, and he looked at them for a long, long time, and then, compelled, he slowly reached out his hand.

Had he felt wrong this morning and it wasn't actually that soft?

He'll just touch it.

...... Ye Yao's lips are so soft.

I don't know how long it took, but the originally quiet Ye Yao moved, and Lu Xun's entire body stiffened, stopping his movements.

Ye Yao seemed to find something on his lips in his sleep, and he reached out his hand and held Lu Xun's fingers.

His hand will be removed, I think.

Lu Xun thought so when he saw his hand being moved to his cheek.

The palm brushed the flesh of a warm cheek.

The man who had caught him did not eviscerate him, rubbing against him gently in a dependent and fond manner.

In that moment, Lu Xun's mind went blank and his heart felt like it had been struck by thunder.
