The next evening.

Kouya County arrived a few minutes earlier than the agreed time.He walked into the private room under the guidance of the waiter, quietly waiting for Duan Han's arrival.

The relationship between him and Duan Han is numb, neither far nor close, and he can barely be called an old friend.

They went to the same university, but not in the same major.During his junior year, Han decided to take the postgraduate entrance examination, so he posted a post on the school forum to recruit roommates, rent a house together, supervise together, and review together.

Kou Yajun was planning his small animal rescue station at that time, and it was too inconvenient to live in the dormitory.After seeing this post, I took the initiative to contact Duan Han.

This is how roommate life began.

Although they are renting the same house, they are not in the same major, and each has better friends. In addition, their work and rest schedules are different, and they don't know much on weekdays.

Duan Han is a gentle and good old man with a gentle temper, while Kou Yajun is much more silent, and the two of them don't get along very well.

Duan Han has a lover, and Kou Yajun has always known about it, but it was only after a long, long time that he found out that it was a man.

One day, Kou Yajun went to the rescue station, and when he went out, he realized that he forgot to bring his mobile phone. When he returned to the rental house, he happened to hear Duan Han on the phone.

"Duan Han? Duan—Han—Hello??"

Duan Han was taken aback by the person who turned back suddenly, he was stunned for a few seconds before turning off the speaker, raised his phone and said, "I'm here, Xia Xia."

Only then did Kou Yajun know that the "Xia Xia" that Duan Han was talking about every day was a boy.

He didn't think too much, took the phone by himself, waved to Duan Han and went out again, but thought a little more when he went downstairs.

It's a bit strange, it's been so many years since same-sex marriage was open, and young people of their generation don't take homosexuality seriously, why Duan Han still looks a little embarrassed.

As for meeting Rong Xia himself for the first time, to be honest, Kou Yajun doesn't remember that scene very much.

He only remembered that Rong Xia was wearing a simple white T-shirt, a gray baseball cap on top of his head, and his shoulder-length blond hair was loosely tied into a ponytail behind his head.

The man was looking down at the phone, a white neck was exposed under the loose blond hair, so white that it was almost transparent.

He didn't know who was calling him, and he looked up in the direction of Kouya County——

Obviously the whole person is light-colored, but at that glance, he turned into the most colorful color in the world.

"Sir, please."

The waiter's voice brought Kou Yajun back to his senses, before he could recover the disappointed look on his face, he met Duan Han's eyes.

"..." Duan Han squeezed a smile, "Yajun."

Kou Yajun nodded to him, "Sit down."

It was a greeting.

After Duan Han was seated, the two exchanged a few words, nothing more than a few old ones, asking about Kou Yajun's health, asking about his career development in the past few years, and then talking about his own situation politely.

Very polite and awkward.

It was a good meal, and neither of them had the heart to savor it.

Duan Han was the first to lose his composure.

"Yajun, I have a question. I don't know if it will offend you." He put down his chopsticks before taking a few mouthfuls of food, cleared his throat, and said straight to the point, "You and Xiaxia...why are you What about divorce?"

"I won't take offense." Kou Yajun also put down his chopsticks, and he leaned back with a relaxed posture, "But he won't answer either, this is a private matter between Rong Xia and me."

Duan Han's five fingers were slightly closed, and he clenched his fist Xuxu, and then he smiled again, this time the smile finally seemed a little sincere.

"I haven't seen you for so many years, you don't seem to have changed much."

There was a brief silence in the private room.

Duan Han's gaze was fixed on the tatami not far away, but he wasn't really looking at anything.When he turned his face again, there was no polite smile on his face.

"You guys got married so suddenly, I was really shocked. I was cowardly and couldn't accept it because I was fleeing abroad. But—" Duan Han held his chin with one hand, put away his usual gentle expression, and was rarely serious Said, "Now you are divorced, Xia Xia is also single, I have the right to pursue him, right?"

He didn't give Kou Yajun time to answer, and immediately said, "Even if you regret it now."

Having said that, the meal is absolutely unbearable, the silence and silent confrontation in the air is suffocating.

After that, neither of them said any more words, and Duan Han didn't speak again until the waiter came in to add water.

"That's the end of this meal, it's meaningless to stay any longer."

He picked up the tea on the table and drank it.The water was slightly hot, making his mouth bitter.He got up, put on his black coat, adjusted the neckline, turned his back to Kou Yajun, and said doubtfully: "I really don't understand you... In the past, I thought you didn't like him very much, but you are married. Now I think you love him, but you're divorced."

He stood still in front of the door of the private room, finally couldn't help it, and turned his head to look at Kou Yajun.He asked: "Can you tell me, what do you think? It's not rational to pester Xia Xia after a divorce."

Kou Yajun raised his head and glanced at him lightly.He still didn't answer Duan Han's question directly, he just said: "There are always some things that can't be broken all at once. You haven't forgotten him after hiding abroad for so many years, and you can't ask me to forget him immediately, right?"

Duan Han looked at him, didn't say anything, closed the door with a bang and left.

Rong Xia has always paid great attention to protecting her privacy, and her private life has been kept under wraps. After she married Kou Yajun, no one dared to inquire about many things.

Kou Yajun doesn't have much interest in chatting with Duan Han. Tonight's meal is just to hear more about Rong Xia - no way, Duan Han is too eager to talk. Xia Chang Xia Xia Short, he does not believe that this person can learn to hold back.

But he didn't find out what he wanted to ask, and Kou Yajun almost pissed himself off.

He remembered some past events again, during the long silence between him and Duan Han.

"But I promised you to go with me before!" The male voice on the other side of the phone was rather reluctant, "I don't care, if you don't come, I will go."

Duan Han coaxed: "It's not that I won't go, I'm just 10 minutes late, just 10 minutes, can you wait for me downstairs?"

The boy's attitude softened a little, but he still muttered unhappily: "What important things do you have to rush to do tomorrow?"

"A preview summary before the exam. I missed it before, but I just saw it." Duan Han laughed silently, and lied casually.

After appeasing the little boyfriend, Duan Han called the watch salesman whom he had been chatting with just now, and double-checked the delivery time tomorrow afternoon.

He bought Rong Xia a watch as a birthday present.He has been fancying this watch for a long time, and has been talking about it, but he can't buy it.Taking advantage of Rong Xia's birthday this time, he finally ordered it.

Kou Yajun was sorting out the cat's medical records in another bedroom, and he also listened to the conversation between his roommate and boyfriend in the living room.

He had met that roommate's little boyfriend once, and he was really good-looking, just by looking at his face, he looked like someone could hold him in his hand and take care of him.

only……

Kou Yajun walked out of the bedroom, leaned against the door, and said to the person in the living room who was looking at the picture of the watch and giggling, "Duan Han, it's almost July, remember to prepare the money, it's time to pay the rent for the third quarter."

Duan Han was stunned for a moment, then his expression became sad.He patted his face and sighed repeatedly.

"Alas... don't tell me, I almost forgot!" Duan Han quickly went to his financial management software, and sighed, "Thanks for your reminder, otherwise I will have to wait until the internship salary is paid next month to get enough money."

He clasped his hands together, smiled and bowed to Kou Yajun, and then went to look at his watch.

Kou Yajun also knew that watch, a style that suddenly became popular this year.The green square dial has a small and exquisite style, which should be very suitable for Rong Xia.

It's just that the price is somewhat too expensive for college students like them.

It costs 400 yuan, and their internship salary is only [-] yuan a day. They also have to pay rent, water and electricity bills, and there are too many places to spend money.

However, Kou Yajun's reminder seemed too tactful, and Duan Han didn't realize what he meant.Seeing him still leaning against the door, she even happily showed him the photo in her hand.

"Do you think this looks good?"

"..." Kou Yajun was helpless, but he had to admit that if Rong Xia wore this watch, it would definitely look good.

The man's skin was fair, and the green color complemented his complexion better.This green is rich, but not dull.

He said, "It's beautiful."

At this time, Duan Han finally realized that his roommate was hesitant to speak.

"Ya Jun, I know what you want to say." Duan Han smiled and explained, "You misunderstood, this is what I fancy and want to give him, not what he asked me for. He doesn't have these ideas."

Kou Yajun said: "I didn't mean that either, it's just...it's really too expensive for students of our age."

Duan Han scratched his head, "I also think it's expensive, but..."

The smile on his face was obvious, and the whole person was brimming with happiness.

Kou Yajun shook his head, as if he was full of dog food, "As you like."

On the second night, Kou Yajun met his roommate and his boyfriend on the subway near the rental house.

The green watch was already on Rong Xia's hand, and it swung with his movements, firmly attracting Kou Yajun's attention.

As I thought before, green is very suitable for Rong Xia, making him lively and elegant.

Thinking about it, Kou Yajun smiled.

It's quite interesting, my name is Xia, I was born in summer, and it matches so well with this kind of green that is unique to summer...

He looked at the two sitting together with their heads together, while he stood in a corner where no one cared.

Half a minute later, the subway arrived at the station.

He watched Rong Xia stand up slowly, and pulled Duan Han out of the car.

Kou Yajun dawdled for a while, and squeezed out before the carriage door closed.

The subway station is about 10 minutes away from the rental house.

The two strolled around, walking very slowly, and then turned to the next street to buy a small bowl of ice cream.

Kou Yajun was hesitant to leave quickly at this moment, and he was worried that the two people behind him would catch up with him—he didn’t want to be the light bulb for those two people, so he also slowed down and continued to follow them from a distance behind.

Rong Xia didn't know what flavor of ice cream she bought, but it turned out to be light green.

He held up the small transparent bowl in his hand to show Duan Han, who didn't know what Duan Han said, Rong Xia pursed his lips after hearing this, trotted and jumped up the steps beside him.

Duan Han laughed loudly and tried to get close to him, but Rong Xia hid a few more steps and walked crookedly on the steps of the flower bed.

The steps were not high, but Rong Xia was obviously having two purposes, and didn't pay attention to the road under his feet at all.

Kou Yajun's heart tightened as he watched, always feeling that the man would fall down in a second.

Over there, Rong Xia opened and closed his mouth, still saying words that Kou Yajun couldn't hear.He was too busy, busy eating ice cream, busy bickering with Duan Han, and jumping up and down the steps.

Finally, one didn't pay attention and stepped on the air.

At that moment, Kou Yajun's heart almost stopped beating.

But Rong Xia won't fall - Duan Han is beside him.

Duan Han supported his buttocks, he staggered a little, staggered a few steps before standing still.

Rong Xia leaned on his shoulder, with unabated panic and joy on his face.He pinched his ears quietly, probably because he felt ashamed, and this small movement deliberately avoided Duan Han.

Instead, Kou Yajun took a serious look.

Afterwards, Duan Han fished him out of his arms and stroked his hair.

The golden hair was very soft, and the little Jiujiu on the back of his head was touched up and down.When Duan Han's fingers left, a small strand of hair fell on Rong Xia's face.

Duan Han helped him put his hair together, put his palm on his side face, tilted his head and looked at it for a few seconds——

A soft kiss fell on Rong Xia's mouth, and then gently pried his lips open, licking the lip crevices that smelled like grape ice cream.

In the past, Kou Yajun always felt that although Rong Xia was beautiful enough, she was a bit self-willed and selfish.But now, the wayward boy didn't refuse the kiss from his boyfriend, but just opened his mouth obediently, allowing him to kiss him deeper.

This kiss didn't last too long, just a taste of it.

Duan Han reluctantly let go of Rong Xia, and rubbed his thumb against his lips before he was willing to let go.

As for Rong Xia... Afterwards, she followed Duan Han obediently and stretched out her hand to hold him.

After turning into the community where the rental house was located, Kou Yajun stopped in his tracks.

He smoked half a pack of cigarettes downstairs before Duan Han led Rong Xia downstairs.

Both of them were taken aback when they saw him.Before they could ask, Kou Yajun took the initiative to say, "Smok a cigarette, let the smell go, and then go upstairs."

As he spoke, he waved the things in his hands at the two of them, explaining in a pretentious manner.

Duan Han seldom saw him speak so proactively, and it was a bit strange.But he was busy sending Rong Xia back and didn't ask any more questions.

It hurts every time I think of some intermittent memory, especially, this memory is not pleasant.

At the end of the memory, Kou Yajun went back to take a bath with a strong smell of cigarettes all over his body. When he entered the door, he found that the bathroom was wet. He didn't know who used it just now.

He has no cleanliness, and he doesn't have too many rules or requirements, but the unhappiness in his heart is real.

At that time, Kou Yajun didn't think about the source of his unhappiness every time he saw Rong Xia, and even simply attributed it to "Rong Xia may be a very willful person".

However, after thinking of these things, Kou Yajun finally knew that those unpleasant emotions were all bitterness and sourness.

He subconsciously touched his pocket——

Nothing at all.No cigarette case, no lighter.

When I was in school, Kouya County was under extreme pressure for quite a long time because of my parents’ lack of understanding and support, and because the relief station was always short of money.It was also at that time that he began to rely on cigarettes to vent his stress.

But he knew very well that he had quit smoking long ago.

After waking up from the coma until now, he hasn't had a cigarette addiction at any moment.
