Xueba, don't look at me, look at the question!

After a meal, she finally went to the corridor and closed the door of the house. Mu Nanyu let out a long sigh of relief, and fell on Bai Jingtan a little tiredly, and was caught firmly by someone.

"You said... my uncle shouldn't have noticed anything unusual, right?"

Bai Jingtan wrapped his arms around his waist, and lightly pressed down a bunch of dull hair on his head with the other.

"should not."

"I think my uncle's performance today is not bad... at least it's not like some parents' face changes when they mention homosexuality."

"Well, Xiaoyu is right." Bai Jingtan led him for two steps, and finally walked up to him and squatted down, "If you are too lazy to move, I will carry you."

After eating and drinking enough, and the cool night breeze blowing, Mu Nanyu really didn't want to move.

He jumped onto Bai Jingtan's back, hooked his neck, and clamped his legs around the other's waist.

"There are many roads from here to the gate of the community, can you recite me?"

He smelled the cool scent of mint-flavored shampoo at the end of Baijingtan's hair, and the shoulders of the person carrying him were broad. When he leaned on it, his vision expanded a little, and he could see some scenery that he couldn't see normally.

"I don't know if I can move my back, but at least it won't make you fall."

"... You said, my uncle will let us be together in the future, right?"

"Correct."

Bai Jingtan turned his face sideways, his tall nose was outlined in the night, and his eyes were stained by the dim light cast by the street lamp.

"Xiaoyu, do you want to take a plane?"

"Thinking—hey, slow down!"

Mu Nanyu opened his arms, and ran with the boy on his back.

Night Breeze suddenly became energetic, pervasively seeping through the clothes, bringing in an indescribably refreshing coolness.

They walked through the dim light and shadows under the street lamps all the way, and when they stopped, they raised their heads in unison, and there were a few stars shining in the clear and cloudless night sky.

"Baijingtan..."

"Ok?"

"It will be my birthday soon - we agreed, I will go to my father's place in the morning, and come back in the afternoon to have a real birthday with you."

Bai Jingtan's temple hair was a little wet, and his voice was slightly panting, low and hoarse: "I remember... Xiaoyu don't need to remind me, I remember your birthday better than you."

"Then do you know when I was born?"

"Twelve past five at noon."

So it is a little sun in winter.

Mu Nanyu was stunned for a moment: "...you really know!"

"Naturally, when have I lied to you?"

"... Then why don't you want to celebrate your own birthday?"

He also remembers Bai Jingtan's birthday very well. At first it was because he didn't want to call Bai Jingtan "brother", but every time his uncle emphasized that Bai Jingtan was one month and three days older than him, he naturally remembered the other party's birthday by the way.

Later, after going to university, my boyfriend's birthday is of course different from other people's.

But he knew from a young age that Bai Jingtan's birthday was not just his birthday.

I don't even want to mention it, and I never look envious when I see other children eating cakes for their birthdays.

Bai Jingtan was silent for a moment, then explained with a light smile.

"It's nothing good... After my parents passed away, I didn't want to, because I always recalled the scene where the two of them accompanied me on my birthday, which made everyone unhappy. It was unnecessary."

"I wish I could spend my birthday with Xiaoyu... I am very grateful that you were born one month and three days after I was born."

Mu Nanyu's heart twitched. He instinctively wanted to comfort the other party, but after hesitating for a moment, he chose to remain silent.

"...Okay, I'll wait for you."

In fact, I am also very grateful to have a "brother" like you who has been with me for ten years.

I am waiting for you, waiting for the day you are willing to celebrate your own birthday.

Time passed by, and on the day before his birthday, Zhao Liang called him several times and confirmed again and again that he would obediently attend the birthday party before hanging up the phone with satisfaction.

Several friends knew about the situation at Mu Nanyu's house, and tacitly did not mention that Mu Nanyu was going to see his father, just said.

"Brother Yu, I have prepared a large box of snacks for you, all of which you like to eat! I will give them to you in the evening!"

"Mu Nanyu, I will forcefully give you a pair of sneakers. You can choose which color you want."

"Mu Nanyu, I bought you sunscreen, isn't it very considerate?"

Mu Nanyu glanced at his phone, his father's car had already parked outside the school gate.

"Thank you friends for the gifts. When I come back to treat guests to dinner at night, everyone should go to class and catch up on sleep. I will be back soon—Bai Jingtan?"

Bai Jingtan looked at him: "Well, I'll take you to the school gate."

About tens of meters away from the school gate, Mu Nanyu saw a sports car parked on the side of the road outside the school.

The body is still very new, it seems that it has just been bought, and it looks high-profile and public when parked on the side of the road.

It is also in line with his father's nouveau riche character who values ​​face in everything.

"Bai Jingtan, that's the car. You still have class in the afternoon, so take me here, and be careful not to be caught by the teacher when you're late."

Bai Jingtan replied with a smile: "It's okay, there are still ten minutes left, I can rush there in time, and I will take you out to the school gate before I leave."

"All right……"

Mu Nanyu quickened his pace, and suddenly felt his right eyelid twitch several times, as if implying that the birthday party he was about to attend was destined to be a grand banquet.

The two stopped in front of the school gate, and Mu Nanyu waved.

"Then I'll go first?"

"Well, call me when you're back soon, and I'll come pick you up."

"it is good."

Mu Nanyu walked out of the school gate, walked to the back seat of the sports car, and glanced back quietly. Bai Jingtan was still standing where he was, as if planning to watch him leave.

this person...

The boy's soft almond eyes couldn't help but bend a little. As soon as he walked past the driver's seat, he saw Zhao Liang roll down the car window, revealing a round and slightly chubby face, and greeted him.

Although the expression was smiling, there was an unconcealable darkness and gloom between the brows and eyes.

"Nanyu, you are here, hurry up, don't sit in the back, sit next to Dad."

"Dad has been preparing this birthday party for you for a long time. I guarantee that you will be satisfied after reading it... Dad will show you the list of guests invited this time. You will recognize the people, and they will be relatives in the future."

Mu Nanyu frowned, looking at Zhao Liang holding a cigarette between his fingers, his fingers were smoky and yellow, and the stench of smoke drifted into his nose along with the white mist, making him feel a little nauseous.

"I'll sit in the back seat, I'm used to it."

"All right, all right, that's up to you."

Zhao Liang didn't care about such details, his son was finally willing to come to the house to see his relatives, which already made him feel good and showed his yellow teeth.

"You really didn't invite a single classmate?"

"No need, I'll go by myself."

"That's all right... close the door, let's go!"

Listening to the roar of the car engine, Mu Nanyu rubbed his eyelids which were jumping faster and faster. When he looked at Bai Jingtan through the car window, he found that the other person's face was frighteningly white, and his expression seemed to be covered with a layer of shadow.

He froze for a moment, suspecting that he had read it wrong, and when he wanted to take a closer look, the sports car had already kicked up a cloud of dust and sped away.
