Curse Back to Five Summers: Best Friends Are an Excuse for Couples

"You've already told me that you're a teacher. Wouldn't it be rude for me to call you Gojo-san? Gojo...teacher."

At the end of the sentence, Geto Suguru deliberately called out the word "teacher" in a much lower voice. In such a dimly lit night, with the breeze blowing and the stars shining, this voice seemed particularly ambiguous and gentle.

Gojo Satoru was stunned and stared blankly at Geto Suguru.

At this time, Geto Suguru was leaning on the wooden railing behind him with his legs crossed, very leisurely.

There was a gentle smile in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, and a hint of teasing that could be seen through at a glance.

This... was different from every time he had seen him before. With a gleam in his lazy eyes, Suguru Geto inexplicably made him sense a hint of...

Geto Suguru seemed to suddenly realize his current state. He stood up straight, restrained his smile, and cleared his throat unnaturally.

He asked Gojo Satoru, "Is it okay to call me by my name? I'm a few years older than you, so calling me by my name isn't too rude, right?"

"..." Gojo Satoru was still immersed in the other person's low and sexy voice.

He heard Geto Suguru ask that question and then he took the initiative to call him. This time, it was very simple, just his name.

He heard Geto Suguru calling him—"Satoru."

Wu, a very simple word, but because Geto Suguru's voice is so gentle and pleasant, this name is given another meaning.

It's not the macho voice of Mr. Yega, nor the gentle feminine voice of my mother, nor the aged voice of the elders of the Gojo family, nor the stern and rough voice of my father, nor the childish voice of my students.

No, no, neither.

"If you don't object, I'll take that as your agreement. I'll count to three. If you don't object on five, I'll call you by your first name from now on."

Gojo Satoru focused his eyes on Geto Suguru's mouth, listening to him count.

His thin lips moved, and Geto Xia Yu began to count, "One..."

Geto Suguru's facial features are very heroic, but I don't know what's wrong. When they are combined on his face, he looks very charming, perhaps because of his eyes.

The slender fox-like eyes are curved when smiling, and are very charming when moving. When angry, they are full of murderous intent and carry absolute oppression. Usually, they are indifferent and very clean.

Maybe it's his expression, his lazy look, the slow movement of his eyes, and the fact that he always smiles with his lips curled up, which makes him look naturally charming.

Now, on this face with a charming smile, the thin lips continued to move slightly, reciting the most ordinary numbers.

When hearing the number "three", Gojo Satoru saw that the corners of Geto Suguru's mouth suddenly curled up, with a large arc and a hint of certainty.

"Ah, if you don't object, I'll take that as your agreement, Satoru."

Gojo Satoru felt that it was very rude of him to keep staring at Geto Suguru's lips. Besides, the other party was a man just like him. If he looked at him like this, would he think he was a pervert?

"Um..." Gojo Satoru stuttered, "It's just a name. Call me whatever you want. I don't care."

"Okay," Geto Xiayou nodded seemingly in a good mood, and suddenly returned to the previous question.

He asked again, "Wu, what do you want to eat tomorrow?"

Gojo Satoru's mind went blank. He scratched his head in annoyance. After thinking for a long time, he suddenly said, "Soumen, how about some vegetarian cold noodles?"

The smile on Geto's face faded a little bit. He looked at Gojo Satoru with a bit of confusion, and then he heard Gojo Satoru continue, "Let's use buckwheat noodles."

Buckwheat cold noodles are Geto Suguru's favorite food. When he was in technical high school, he would eat this whenever he ate alone. Later, when he became thin because of those bad negative emotions, Gojo Satoru even wondered if it was because he ate too much buckwheat noodles.

Indeed, buckwheat cold noodles have no special nutritional value. They can make people feel full after eating, but they cannot provide many nutrients needed by the body.

This Gojo Satoru clearly has no memory of being with me, but he can tell me what food he likes to eat. Could it be that Satoru is also reborn?

Such speculation was too ridiculous, and Geto Suguru rejected the idea in his heart.

Compared to this, he felt it was a coincidence. Did it just happen that Gojo Satoru also liked to eat it?

But, I still didn't give up.

"Does Wu also like to eat vegetarian cold buckwheat noodles?" asked Geto Suguru tentatively.

Gojo Satoru nodded almost without thinking, "Ah, it's perfect for eating in the summer when you have a poor appetite, because it's lighter."

The ignited hope was completely extinguished when he heard this answer. Xia Yujie felt that he was a little funny.

He nodded, "Yes, because it's light, it's perfect for eating in the summer when you have a poor appetite. It's a way to cope with the harsh summer weather."

With his back away from the wooden railing, Geto Suguru took two steps to the door of his room. He turned his head and forced a smile at Gojo Satoru who was still standing there, just like the mask he wore on his face all day long.

He said, "I understand. I'll buy the ingredients for vegetarian noodles when I get home from get off work tomorrow. Let's have dinner together."

Gojo Satoru nodded lightly. He saw Geto Suguru push open the door of his room without hesitation. The tall and thin black figure disappeared at the door, followed by the sound of the door closing heavily.

It was not until Geto Suguru's figure disappeared from his sight that Gojo Satoru suddenly remembered what he had wanted to say.

He didn't want to tell Geto Suguru that he was a teacher and not a student, he actually wanted to say something else.

After puffing up his cheeks in annoyance, Gojo Satoru quickly felt relieved.

He now lives next door to Geto Suguru. They see each other every day and can enjoy delicious dinner together. He will have plenty of time to say what he really wants to say later, so there is no need to rush.

Thinking of this, Gojo Satoru smiled again without anyone noticing. Although he was already an adult, he still looked like a teenager, and his baby face made him look very childish.

"Mr. Geto, good night." He said in a voice as low as it could be, looking at the place where Geto Geto had just stood.

Separated by a door, Geto Suguru returned to the room and leaned against the door for a long time without moving.

In his hand, he was still holding the paper plate and fork after eating, which belonged to him and Gojo Satoru.

He seemed to have forgotten to throw them away and was holding them tightly.

Having already realized his true feelings for Gojo Satoru, he could no longer treat him with a normal attitude.

Even if he couldn't do it, he had to do it. Geto Xia Yu rubbed his face with his hands, reminding himself not to go too far.

It was terrible to unconsciously show true emotions to Gojo Satoru like I did tonight.

"We can't scare Wu away. We can't do this."

The sound of the door closing next door was not too loud, but it still reached Geto Suguru's ears.

When he thought that Gojo Satoru was just next door to him, his heart gradually calmed down after being agitated.

Geto Suguru also slightly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled sincerely.

"Good night," he said softly, looking at the wall covered with beige wallpaper with dark patterns, "Wu."
