Quick Wear: Don't come over here, you are looking for trouble

Xu Bai likes Chen Zui the most.

Everything he has was given by Chen Zui. He spent his worst and happiest times with Chen Zui.

……

"Why are you crying?"

Life is not easy in an orphanage, especially when there are so many abandoned children that they are inevitably not well cared for.

Except for the very small ones, they are basically free-range.

The three or four-year-old child has a pair of big eyes with tears in his eyes, which makes people feel soft in their hearts.

"Don't cry." The older boy struggled to dig into his pocket, took out a candy, and spread it in his palm. "Here, I hid it secretly."

Xu Bai always remembered that candy, a toffee, which was very sweet.

"My name is Chen Zui." The boy held out his hand. "What's your name?"

While eating candy, Xu Bai answered obediently, "My name is Xu Bai."

"I'm older than you, from now on..." Children always like to pretend to be adults. Chen Zui patted his chest and said, "Call me brother, I'll protect you!"

The candy had been in his pocket for a long time. When Chen Zui took it out, he hesitated, not because he was reluctant to do so, but because he found that the candy had melted and even the outermost layer of the candy wrapper was a little sticky.

Their relationship is getting better and better.

In fact, there was once a time when Chen Zui had a chance to leave.

Several children were standing in the yard waiting to be selected. The woman who got off the beautiful car had a pretty face and was wearing a light-colored cheongsam. She looked gentle and kind.

The woman asked them their names and asked them to briefly introduce themselves.

The dean told them to seize this opportunity, saying that she was a distinguished guest from a big city and whoever went with her would have a good life.

Chen Zui was already eight years old at that time. He was not young anymore, so he was placed in the middle and changed into clean clothes.

Xu Bai poked his head out from behind the tree and stared at Chen Zui without blinking.

"Hey!"

Someone patted him hard, "Xu Bai, maybe this time your brother will live a good life with her!"

Xu Bai bit his lip and glared at the child who patted his shoulder, "Don't talk nonsense!"

They lowered their voices deliberately to avoid being discovered by the dean, but the malicious intent of the visitor was so obvious.

"You don't know yet, do you?" She feigned surprise in a childish voice. "Originally, the dean wanted you to go, but your good brother went and begged for it himself. I heard everything, and he said nothing but bad things about you. He insisted on going in your place, so you were removed from the list."

"Look, they're having a pretty good chat."

“You’re talking nonsense…!”

Xu Bai refuted verbally, but his eyes followed Chen Zui. He saw the woman smiling at Chen Zui, touching Chen Zui's head gently, and finally holding Chen Zui's hand.

Chen Zui didn't struggle either.

He had clearly said before that he would always be with me.

"elder brother."

Tears gathered in his eyes almost instantly. Xu Bai wiped them with his hands and murmured, "No."

"This should have been yours." The child turned and left. He had always disliked the fact that Chen Zui and Xu Bai were inseparable and close, but now seeing Xu Bai sad, he felt indescribably happy.

During lunch, the dean announced the good news that a child had been selected.

Xu Bai poked at the rice in the bowl, his vision becoming increasingly blurred.

Chen Zui should have accompanied him, but Chen Zui didn't come.

Who is so lucky to be chosen?

Everyone is guessing.

……

When they first met, it was actually Chen Zui who broke into Xu Bai's "secret base".

This place was found by Xu Bai. Few people come here and it is quiet.

The leaves rustled in the wind. He sat for a while and wiped his eyes with his hand.

As long as one is a human being, he or she will have feelings, no matter how young.

Xu Bai knew that he should give his blessing, he couldn't stop others from pursuing a better life.

"noob!"

Xu Bai turned around and saw the child standing with his hands hanging down. He grinned and walked quickly over to stand shoulder to shoulder with Xu Bai.

"Crying?" Chen Zui held his face. They were obviously still two little kids, but they hugged each other tightly, as if they regarded each other as their most important support.

"Actually, I heard it."

Chen Zui said, "The woman who came told the director that she didn't want to adopt a child at all, but needed a child to serve as a mobile blood bank for her biological son."

Xu Bai seemed to understand, and Chen Zui actually seemed to understand too, but the dean had received a large sum of money, and his intuition told him that being taken there for selection was not a good thing.

"I'm afraid of danger."

Chen Zui went to hold Xu Bai's hand, "Brother will protect you."

That's why he took Xu Bai's position at that time.

He thought: Xiaobai is so likable, if he really gets chosen... the consequences will be unimaginable.

Xu Bai asked him.

"Will you always protect me?"

"Even when there's a better option?"

"Will we also have a fight?"

"Will it be the same after you find a girl you like?"

Chen Zui stretched out his little finger, bent it and waved it towards Xu Bai, "Pink pinky."

Xu Bai's eyes sparkled, his eyelashes fluttered, and he hooked two fingers together. The boy's voice sounded firm, "I'm Chen Zui."

"I will protect Xu Bai for the rest of my life."

"Always, even when we have a fight."

"Hang yourself with a hook, and you won't be able to change it for a hundred years."

Xu Bai lowered his voice. He felt that Chen Zui's palm was very hot, and it burned his whole body.

……

Chen dislikes girls the most.

This is something he discovered after adolescence.

Even if a girl smiled sweetly at him, Chen Zui felt nothing. He was more looking forward to Xu Bai throwing herself into his arms, and even more looking forward to having physical contact with the already grown-up boy.

Physiological reactions are difficult to conceal.

When Xu Bai discovered him, Chen Zui's face turned from red to white.

He couldn't even look directly into Xu Bai's eyes. He clenched his fists nervously, trying to hide the dirty piece of Xu Bai's underwear in his hand, "...Xiaobai..."

"Ah."

Xu Bai walked over. The slight sound of fabric rubbing against each other sounded to Chen Zui like the sound of a gunshot about to be heard when a death row inmate was sentenced. He moved his eyes from Chen Zui's face to his hands.

Chen Zui could hear the pounding heartbeat.

"I..." He wanted to say something, but he couldn't utter anything. Chen was most afraid that Xu Bai would feel disgusted, and he was also afraid that they couldn't even be friends.

"elder brother."

Xu Bai got closer to him, and Chen was initially worried that he could hear his heartbeat like a drum.

"Will you still protect me if you have a girl you like?"

Xu Bai raised his head slightly to look at him, his eyes clear and without any disgust, "I have never received an answer to this question."

"…You really want to know?"

"Okay." Chen Zui was determined to go all out. "Because there won't be any girl I like. I don't like girls."

Xu Bai: "Then... who do you like?"

Chen Zui was silent for a moment.

"Xiaobai, it's too hasty now. I can only tell you that the person I like is right in front of me."

"When he took the candy that had melted into a stringy consistency, I liked it."

"Precocious." Chen Zui grinned and reached out to pull Xu Bai. After holding him, he felt relieved. "There's nothing I can do."
