growing up

Gu Yuan likes Ling Chao's parents very much. At first glance, they may seem a little nervous, but they seem to be the kind of parents who really understand their children.

Since he was a child, he had no experience of living with his parents for a long time. Since his father is gone now, he can no longer experience the kind of love his father has for his son.

He knew that Ling Chao's father was just joking and wanted him to relax.

Although they knew that Ling Chao had told his family about the relationship between the two, his parents did not object.But after all, they are still high school students, they are puppy love together, and they are still two boys.More or less, I also worry about whether it will be a little embarrassing if I meet Ling Chao's parents.

He was ready to be left out, as long as Ling Chao was with him, he didn't care to bear some embarrassment from his parents.

But now, Ling Chao's mother went to pick him up in person, and after returning, Ling Chao's father became active again to resolve his embarrassment.

Gu Yuan felt warm in his heart, he felt that his impulsive action was worth it.

Several people talked for a while, Bai Lan saw that it was getting late, she stood up and said to Ling Chao: "Ling Chao, take Gu Yuan back to the room to put your luggage away, you are very tired after flying for half a day, let's go Take a hot bath, I'll go see how Xiaoqin's rice is doing, I went out to pick up Gu Yuan before I finished cooking the soup."

"Okay." Ling Chao also stood up and nodded to Gu Yuan to follow him.

Ling Chao's room is large, but the decoration is not complicated, and the overall color is mainly white.

On the wall to the right of entering the room, there is a set of craft storage racks, on which there are more than a dozen trophies and some animation figures.

There are two comfortable sofa chairs by the window. There are several pots of small green potted plants on the shelves next to them, and an English novel is hung on the low table in front of the chairs.

There was a computer table in the corner, and the screen was in a screensaver state, and the picture played turned out to be a picture of him and Ling Chao taken during the last trip in the old city.

A large bed is in front of the closet, and the navy blue quilt is neatly covered.On the open space in front of the bed was a thick gray carpet with a small square table on it, and a few textbooks piled up on the table—Ling Chao should be doing his homework here.

The whole room does not have too much decoration, at a glance, it is neat and clean.

Ling Chao carried Gu Yuan's suitcase in, pointed to the door on the other side of the shelf, and said, "The bathroom is inside, and there are new towels in the cabinet on the sink, you should go take a shower first."

"Well," Gu Yuan took the box and put it on the ground, opened it, found a suit of clothes and came out, "Then I'll go first."

As Gu Yuan was speaking, he was about to turn around and leave, but Ling Chao grabbed him, and then exerted force on his wrist, pulling Gu Yuan into his embrace.

In the past six months, Gu Yuan has grown a lot taller, although he is still very thin.

Ling Chao lowered his head slightly and kissed Gu Yuan's lips, looked at him with a smile and asked, "Did you miss me?"

Gu Yuan's ears turned red all of a sudden, he lowered his eyes and didn't speak, only nodded slightly after being tightened into Ling Chao's arms again.

"I miss you a lot." Ling Chao said.

"Okay," Gu Yuan struggled, "Your parents are still downstairs."

Ling Chao raised his hand and rubbed his hair before letting him go: "Then let you go now."

Gu Yuan smiled, carried his clothes to the bathroom, and said suddenly before closing the door: "Brother Chao, I came here because I missed you so much."

After speaking, he closed the door, leaving Ling Chao alone in the room.

It seems that after seeing each other for a few days, Gu Yuan learned a lot.

In the past, he always said something unintentionally to shock Ling Chao, but today, it is obvious that he did it on purpose.

But Ling Chao had no chance to get it back for the time being, Gu Yuan had just finished taking a shower and his mother called them downstairs for dinner.

There was a lot of laughter and laughter during the meal. Ling Chao's parents loved each other, and they always liked to show affection to each other. Ling Chao was used to it. I thought they would be more dignified when Gu Yuan was here, but it seemed that Ling Chao was thinking too much.

But when he saw Gu Yuan also laughed, Ling Chao felt that this was actually quite good.After all, it is not so easy to see Gu Yuan laughing.

After eating and resting for a while, Ling Zhifeng had to go back to the company to deal with some matters, so Bai Lan stayed at home with them.

"Don't, don't, let's play by ourselves. I'm not a light bulb." Bai Lan stood up and waved her hand and said, "Go and drive first, I'll pack it up and come right away."

"Mom...can you still do it?" Ling Chao was amused by Bai Lan's words and wanted to laugh.He glanced at Gu Yuan, who was sitting there with no expression on his face.

"I'll go to the company with your dad, and you two will play by yourself at night. I'll arrange someone to be your driver tomorrow. Where does Xiao Yuan want to go and ask Ling Chao to take you there?" Bai Lan took out her bag, changed her shoes, and Don't forget to arrange it.

"Yes, if you want to work overtime, you can go to work overtime, we can solve it by ourselves. The driver is unnecessary, we can just take a taxi when we go out." Ling Chao sat on the sofa, resting his head on Gu Yuan, and was pushed up by Gu Yuan again. .

"Okay," Bai Lan tidied up, thought for a while and said, "Oh, by the way, I'm sorry, Xiao Yuan, Xiaoqin will go back to her hometown starting tomorrow - it's been decided before. So you go out to play these few days Let’s eat outside. If I’m free, I’ll make it for you at home.”

"It's okay, auntie." Gu Yuan broke free from Ling Chao's hand, and obediently stood by the sofa to send him off, "I can cook."

"That's okay," Bai Lan said quickly, her cell phone rang, and it was Ling Zhifeng who was driving ahead of time. I take good care of Xiao Yuan! I have to go."

"Okay," Ling Chao was still stretched out on the sofa, and he called out to the door, "Bye bye, mom."

Before the sound fell, the sound of the door closing came.

The family finally returned to silence, only Gu Yuan and Ling Chao were left in the whole house.Gu Yuan still kept his standing posture, he only felt that someone caught the hem of his clothes, and then a strong force pulled him backwards, and he fell directly into Ling Chao's arms.

"Brother Chao," Gu Yuan leaned obediently on Ling Chao's body, and now he is more and more used to getting close to Ling Chao, "Aren't you afraid that your mother will come back suddenly?"

"Why are you afraid of her? Didn't you hear what she said just now that she doesn't want to be our light bulb?" Ling Chao said slowly with his chin resting on Gu Yuan's shoulder.

For a long time, Gu Yuan didn't speak anymore, he and Ling Chao just hugged and sat on the sofa, enjoying the intimacy that they haven't been in a hurry to experience since this afternoon.

"What are you thinking?" Ling Chao finally asked.

"It's nothing." Gu Yuan smiled, "I just thought, your parents are really nice."

"Yes, I think so too." Ling Chao rubbed his neck and said softly.

"Actually, before I came, I imagined what would happen if your parents didn't like me." Gu Yuan shrank to the side, finally broke free from his embrace, and sat side by side with Ling Chao.

"What can I do?" Ling Chao took one of his hands, and his fingertips slowly slid across his palm, "My parents will definitely not make things difficult for you. Because, you are the one I like."

Ling Chao's voice, like a stream of clear water passing through Gu Yuan's heart, was warm, sweet and moist.

Although he only had contact with Ling Chao's parents for a short time, he could feel that they welcomed and loved him.

And what he can do is to be with Ling Chao well, no matter it is now or in the future.

In the evening, Ling Chao took Gu Yuan to watch a movie, and after the movie ended, he went for a stroll in the music square.

"Are you hungry?" Ling Chao looked at the time, it was already 10:30.

"It's okay." Gu Yuan said.

"Let me take you to eat seafood." Ling Chao said.

"Now?" Gu Yuan asked.

"That's right," Ling Chao said, pointing to a row of food stalls across the square, "The city has just woken up at this point."

City H is a famous city that never sleeps, and it gets busier in the early hours of the morning.

There are supper shops everywhere in the streets and alleys, and feasting and feasting venues. Even though the new year is almost closed, you can still laugh wantonly in summer clothes in this southern city.

"Okay." Gu Yuan replied.

I don't know if he was infected by the music in the square, but Gu Yuan's mood became even better. The neon lights emitted by the music fountain made his smiling face even brighter.

Looking at the person in front of him, Ling Chao was dazed for a moment, and when he realized it, he realized that he had actually kissed Gu Yuan in front of the public.

Although it was just a superficial touch, it also made his heart skip a beat.

Someone whistled not far away, Ling Chao turned his head to look for it, and saw a pair of girls cheering him on.

Even if Ling Chao doesn't care anymore, it's still embarrassing to be seen - although the two girls didn't mean anything malicious.

On the contrary, Gu Yuan was calmer than him. He took Ling Chao's hand without looking around, and then walked towards the opposite food stall.

Until Gu Yuan pulled him to sit in front of a table, Ling Chao was still remorseful.

"I was really impulsive just now." Ling Chao said with some self-blame.

"No one knows us, so what are you afraid of." Gu Yuan handed the menu to Ling Chao, "Take a look and order something."

"That's what I said, but..." Ling Chao sighed, took the menu in Gu Yuan's hand, and tried to focus on the dishes, "Do you have any taboos?"

"No." Gu Yuan said.

"That's fine." Ling Chao checked a few items quickly, and asked the waiter to take the menu away.

Gu Yuan propped his head on one hand, fixed his eyes on Ling Chao, and said slowly: "Brother Chao, one day, I will let the whole world know that we are together, how great my brother Chao is, and how much we have. Work hard, so why care about what others see now?"

Ling Chao didn't expect that Gu Yuan would say such words, nor did he expect that it was these words that would support Ling Chao for many years to come.

In the next few days, Ling Chao took Gu Yuan to play around City H.

Sometimes when they are tired from playing, they find a street cafe and sit at an open-air table, quietly watching the passing crowd and vehicles.

On this day, the two of them went to the boxing gym for an afternoon and were planning to walk back slowly.

This road is quiet and long, and the brilliance of the setting sun passes through the woods on one side, sprinkled on the two of them.

"Brother Chao, I'm leaving at noon tomorrow." Gu Yuan suddenly looked up at Ling Chao and said.

"Huh?" Ling Chao stopped and looked at him, "Didn't you say I'll go back at 29? You're only 26 today."

Gu Yuan lowered his head and kicked the small stones on the road: "I've been playing for several days, my mother asked me to go back early."

"Is that so, nothing happened?" Ling Chao frowned and asked.

"It's okay," Gu Yuan smiled, "I want to go back too."

In the afternoon, Gu Yuan received a WeChat message from his mother, asking him to go back early. He didn't know exactly what was going on, but his mother rarely asked him to do anything, instead of calling, he used text messages to ask. It means that at least something happened to Qingqing.However, there must be something.

Gu Yuan can probably guess the reason, but he can't tell Ling Chao now, he changed the ticket information silently, until now he has to tell Ling Chao that he is leaving.
