His hands were shaking slightly from gripping the handrails too hard, and his legs were a little weak. Until this moment, Li Yue still couldn't fully recover from the thrilling scene just now. It was too exciting.

Mu Bai helped him out of the car with amusement, "You really asked for it. Let's go and have a drink."

Li Yue defended himself, "I didn't expect it to be so exciting."

After they finished packing, they left the racetrack. Instead of going to the bar as usual, they stopped at a barbecue stall. They sat down and ordered some food and a few bottles of wine, then started chatting while waiting for the food to be served.

Shen Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Mu Bai had left the racetrack. He had just watched the video; it was incredibly dangerous. He had almost lost control of himself and wanted to rush over and teach that idiot a lesson. But he was afraid that someone following Mu Bai might make him think he was spying on him, which would resent him.

Zhao Yulin, who was standing by, saw that Shen Yu looked relaxed and couldn't help but joked, "Why, are you so worried about your little lover?" Shen Yu rolled his eyes at him and said nothing.

Zhao Yulin poured Shen Yu a glass of wine. "Don't you think the way you two get along is a little strange? It's no different from how a young couple gets along."

Shen Yu looked at Zhao Yulin with disdain and sneered, "What do you know? Don't judge with your dirty heart. We are just ordinary family members getting along."

"I want to laugh when you say that." Zhao Yulin couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter. "The looks between the two of you are about to become thread-like. No one can get in between the two of you in this atmosphere." Thinking of the disgusting scene he had seen in Shen Yu's office before, he couldn't help but get goosebumps.

The scene was so cheesy that it was almost unbearable to watch. Even a seasoned lover like him would never act in such a way. Yet, the person involved was still immersed in it, completely unaware that there was anything wrong with it.

The key point is that he has seen scenes like this too many times. At first, he thought he was blind and saw such an incredible scene. Later, after so many times, he became numb. But today, he really couldn't help it and wanted to complain, which could also be regarded as a reminder.

Shen Yu's face gradually turned darker, but he didn't know how to refute. He and Mu Bai seemed to be getting closer. After a long silence, he spoke, "There will be no other feelings between us. If there is any, it can only be family affection." He didn't know whether he was talking to Zhao Yulin or himself.

"Huh?" Now it was Zhao Yulin's turn to be puzzled. "I see that you two are clearly interested in each other, so why are you still stuck on this?"

Shen Yu retorted: "You're overthinking it." But when Shen Yu said this, he couldn't help feeling depressed.

Zhao Yulin thought of Mu Bai's identity and nodded in understanding. He knew that Shen Yu could not get over this hurdle. The identities of the two were indeed a bit awkward, and as an outsider, he couldn't say anything.

"Then you two should be careful and keep a proper distance. Don't let it end badly. I think that boy's eyes on you are not pure. Since you can't be together, don't give him hope."

"Ah."

Shen Yu felt that Zhao Yulin was right, they really should keep their distance. He drank a few more glasses of wine and didn't plan to go home. He prepared to go to the company. He originally wanted to finish his drink and then go home with Mu Bai.

But now after what Zhao Yulin said, he really didn't know how to face Mu Bai.

In the days that followed, Shen Yu rarely returned home, choosing to live at the company most of the time. Mu Bai knew all of this clearly, knowing full well that Shen Yu was deliberately avoiding him.

However, the longer this situation continued, the more Mu Bai couldn't stand it anymore. He could no longer suppress his emotions. After 886's confirmation, he knew Shen Yu would definitely return home tonight. Mu Bai sat down on the sofa in the living room early and waited quietly.

There were no lights on in the house. Only the faint moonlight filtering in from the window cast a shadow on the ground. Time passed by minute by minute. After an unknown amount of time, there was a slight noise at the door. Then, the door was slowly pushed open, and a figure stepped into the house.

As soon as Shen Yu entered the room, he felt a strange atmosphere enveloping the entire room. It was pitch black, and the silence was unsettling. He subconsciously reached for the switch on the wall. With a soft click, light instantly filled the room.

At this moment, Shen Yu's gaze fell on Mu Bai, who was sitting on the sofa. He sat quietly on the sofa, his eyes fixed on him, his face expressionless. The sudden eye contact made Shen Yu's heart tremble. For a moment, he was stunned, not knowing how to break the suffocating silence.

Mu Bai didn't care. He approached Shen Yu step by step, each step like a heavy hammer hitting the ground, making a dull sound. The rhythm was slow but firm, again and again. As he approached, the air around him seemed to be squeezed, making Shen Yu feel breathless.

Mu Bai asked, "Why are you hiding from me? Did I make you unhappy?" His tone was full of confusion, making people want to pity him.

Shen Yu casually found an excuse for himself and spoke uncomfortably, "No, I've just been a bit busy lately."

Mu Bai didn't believe it, "Really?"

Shen Yu nodded, "Well, now that I'm done with my work, I can spend some quality time with you."

Mu Bai smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes, "Okay, I'll go to bed first." What a liar, it was obvious that school was about to start and there was no need to hide anymore.

After saying that, he turned and left, no longer paying attention to Shen Yu. Shen Yu looked at Mu Bai's lonely back and resisted the urge to hug him in his arms. His heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible big hand. It was very uncomfortable and it was extremely difficult for it to beat. But in the end, Shen Yu did nothing.

From then on until Mu Bai started school, the two of them got along just as they did before, but the distance between them was slowly growing.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day for Mu Bai to start school. Mu Bai refused Shen Yu's offer to see him off, "I'm not a child anymore. I can go by myself."

Shen Yu stood there, quietly watching Mu Bai's receding figure, his lips slightly pursed, but he didn't utter a single word. Only after Mu Bai's figure disappeared from his sight did he slowly take steps and silently follow behind him.

Along the way, Shen Yu always kept a distance from Mu Bai, so that he would not be discovered, while being able to see Mu Bai's every move. He only went back after seeing that he had completed the formalities.
