The tall, handsome congressman came out

In June, the sun is as hot as fire, and the blue sky is like an unadulterated gem, wrapping people in this self-built kingdom.

The referendum on the legalization of gay marriage has started, and the voting period will last for two weeks, ending on July [-]th.

The parade team was overwhelming, and rainbow flags were flying everywhere.People made all kinds of slogans one after another, and went to the streets against the scorching sun to speak out for themselves and for the equality in their hearts.

Cheng Shen specially bought couples T-shirts with rainbow flags printed on the Internet, and dragged Yan Ziyan to the parade.It's not that I have to join in the fun, but Yan Zi'an's political image has already been positioned here, so it's not appropriate not to go.

"Sunscreen must be applied!" Dong Dongdong repeatedly urged, took out SPF50++ sunscreen and applied it to Cheng Shen's face, "The sun is the greatest enemy of youth!"

Cheng Shen closed his eyes tightly and let him wipe it off his face.

Shen Ze took off his sunglasses and said with a smile, "Why don't you paint some on me?"

Dong Dongdong glanced at him, and said indifferently: "You'd better grow old faster, your color is fading and Ai Chi has never heard of it? To save yourself from attracting other goblins at every turn."

Shen Ze: "..."

Cheng Shen touched Yan Zian's face, thought for a while, and said, "Then don't paint it anymore, okay?"

Yan Ziyan couldn't help laughing, thinking where did I get other little fairies, isn't it enough for you alone?

"Hey, sorry for being late!" Ling Yue took Luo Jiajin's hand, pushed aside the crowd, and squeezed over.

She wiped the sweat with the back of her hand, and said out of breath, "Isn't there too many people? It's even scarier than the subway during peak hours in xx country!"

Dong Dongdong couldn't stand her rough life, took out a tissue to wipe her sweat, and said, "Yes, according to this posture, after the referendum is over, the affirmative action will definitely be passed?"

"It's not the same thing," Cheng Shen said. "Actually, this referendum, even if it's a public opinion survey, can't decide anything..."

Yan Ziyan nodded and said, "Whether the proposal can be passed depends on the vote of the House of Representatives."

Ling Yue drank half a bottle of mineral water, and finally regained her composure, and said, "It's still useful. If the result of the referendum is positive, the congressmen must not go against the will of the people." She looked at Yan Zian with a questioning look: "You Say yes?"

Yan Ziyan was noncommittal.

The parade was about to officially begin, and Cheng Shen dragged Yan Zian to the front of the procession, accepting the crazy baptism of the media cameras.Behind them, there are thousands of supporters, like soldiers in peacetime, not rushing, but moving forward firmly.

It turns out that every era has its own battlefield, Cheng Shen couldn't help thinking that there are disputes in public opinion, and it's good that there is no bloodshed.

Unexpectedly, Fan Kaizheng did not come. They had discussed the issue of the referendum before, and Fan Kaizheng even opposed it at that time.

Yan Ziyan was not surprised at all. After walking for a while, he took Cheng Shen into a roadside coffee shop and explained to Cheng Shen while drinking an iced Americano: "Baby, this kind of referendum has increased by two There are conflicts between the camps, and I have the same thoughts as Fan Kaizheng—”

"You drink everywhere." He paused, wiped off the milk froth on the corner of Cheng Shen's mouth with a tissue, and continued: "This kind of referendum is a trick by the Li Chengru government to divert attention."

Cheng Shen looked at him suspiciously: "How to say?"

"Increasing the influence among the masses," Yan Zian said, "in fact, legalization is imperative. If you look around, there are almost [-] democratic countries in the world that have already enacted legislation."

"So this is a gimmick?" Cheng Shen frowned disapprovingly.

Yan Ziyan laughed and said, "It's still a gimmick that costs hundreds of millions."

Suddenly there was a commotion in the crowd, screams one after another, Cheng Shen suddenly turned his head and looked out the window, as if someone was fighting.As soon as he was about to get up, Yan Zian pressed him on the seat, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Wait here, I'll go take a look."

The government deployed police forces for the parade. When Yan Zian passed by, the rioters had been restrained by the police, and leaflets were scattered all over the place.Surrounded by a circle of spectators, there was a lot of discussion, not knowing what happened.

"Is your hand okay?!" Dong Dongdong's horrified voice suddenly came, "Go to the hospital, let's go to the hospital quickly!"

Yan Ziyan turned his head, and saw Shen Ze holding Dong Dongdong in his left hand, protecting him in his arms, his right hand was hanging limply, as if injured.

"I can fight too... I don't need you to protect me." Dong Dongdong seemed to be about to cry, but Shen Ze suddenly laughed, raised his right hand and waved, saying, "I'm fine."

Dong Dongdong grabbed his arm, touched it up and down carefully, and then he was relieved: "You scared me to death."

Shen Ze smiled brightly and teased him: "Scare you to death, where can I find another wife?"

Dong Dongdong: "..."

The sun was long, and there was cheerful music coming from the nearby shops.The asphalt road glowed with an unbelievable temperature, and the air was slightly distorted due to the high temperature.

With Shen Ze's hand on his waist, this summer seems to be getting hotter.

Dong Dongdong was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly he took out a tube of sunscreen from his bag, and applied it all over Shen Ze's head to neck, while muttering in a low voice, "I'd better put more on you, it doesn't look good when you're old, I should despise you."

Shen Ze looked indifferent, he flattened and rounded it casually, but just took his hand and tightened it up.

Cheng Shen was really worried, and came over to ask what was going on. It turned out that people who did not support same-sex marriage were also taking action, spreading leaflets everywhere. Dong Dongdong couldn't see it, so he reasoned a few words. When excited, he moved his hand.However, he was stopped by the police next to him.

No one was hurt and the police gave a verbal warning.Those few people were still a little bit annoyed by being watched like this, but they couldn't argue anymore, so they had to leave angrily.

Cheng Shen couldn't help thinking that the reason why he kept hearing kind voices should have something to do with the environment he lived in. The people he was educated and knew were more tolerant and open. Even if he didn't accept them, he could at least respect them. , so he took it for granted that everyone is like this.

But this must not be true.

Yan Ziyan stood motionless by the side of the road, Cheng Shen patted him on the shoulder from behind curiously: "What are you looking at?"

Yan Ziyan held a leaflet he had just picked up from the ground, and motioned Cheng Shen to read it:

The flyer showed the backs of two men, holding rainbow-coloured leather belts, inflicting violence on a child squatting in a corner.There is even a set of data listed in the accompanying text, which comes from nowhere: "92% of children raised by same-sex families are abused, 51% suffer from depression, and 72% suffer from obesity. [Note]"

Cheng Shen was trembling with anger, he clenched the flyer into a ball and said angrily, "This is planting!"

Dong Dongdong also said with righteous indignation: "That's right! I asked them to come up with the data source just now, but they would only call me a fag, a bitch. It really pissed me off!!!"

"Don't be angry, they don't make sense, that's why they only scold people." Cheng Shen comforted him, "If you really want them to talk, they can't tell why."

The parade was still going on, but Cheng Shen had more thoughts in his mind.Does the referendum bring us closer to equality or further away?

In the evening, Cheng Shen discussed this issue with Yan Zian while sitting on a yoga mat and stretching his legs.

Yan Ziyan held a comic book in his hand, and said casually, "The referendum has intensified the conflict."

"Those who agree will march, and those who oppose will also publicize and canvass. Those leaflets you saw today are quite chilling, right?"

Cheng Shen groaned, and splitting his cross, he answered, "It's quite a waste of paper."

Yan Ziyan: "..." Environmental protection is too big, and Yan Ziyan has learned a lesson.

"My husband, come here and help me stretch my legs." Cheng Shen beckoned to him, Yan Zian put down the manga, and walked over with long legs.

"Yes, yes, press down hard on your crotch, ah—!" Cheng Shen screamed, and took a long breath, "Okay, just don't move like this, continue to talk, intensify the conflict?"

Yan Ziyan pressed Cheng Shen's crotch, rubbed his buttocks twice, and then said: "It's purely personal opinion, I think, in the context of legalization is imperative, such a referendum will bring The negative meaning is more negative. How many people’s hearts will be harmed by the activities of those who oppose LGBT? Adults are just fine, what about children who have not yet finalized their three views?”

Cheng Shen lay on the ground and said, "I've never thought about this before. The referendum is equivalent to forcing everyone to stand in line... Eh?! Okay, okay, stop touching! Stretch your legs!"

Yan Ziyan's hand reluctantly left the soft buttocks, obediently pressed it on his crotch, and said solemnly: "So this will cause a certain degree of tearing in society. Some people call that those who disagree must speak out for their own interests. , go vote no, don't be kidnapped by political correctness."

"It seems like the government is conniving at everyone hurting each other?" Cheng Shen hesitated.

"It's not that serious. It's hard to say. Anyway, I voted. Let's wait for the result." Yan Zian couldn't hold back, and slipped his hand, "Should we continue to press, baby? It's almost there?"

Before Cheng Shen could answer, Yan Zian picked him up and walked to the bathroom.

"I still have to press my waist!!!" Cheng Shen struggled to get down.

"Press on the bed, press whatever you want."
