【Ghost in Black and White】The Thief of Time

The day Yuebai was discharged from the hospital was Friday, and he had to register after the weekend, so Yaohu set the day for the dormitory dinner to be Sunday night.

The commercial street outside the east gate of Ping'an University is already full of affectionate Valentine's Day atmosphere, which makes Yuebai extremely embarrassed.Hei Yu pushed the teacup, and he inevitably remembered the historical legacy of being pursued by his own brother, so he could only return a "thank you" in a strange way.

The sashimi was served in the shape of a heart, and it was sizzling and air-conditioned.Yaohu is also trapped in love—he hasn’t seen his lover for half a month in order to prepare for the Valentine’s Day ball. He turned his grief and anger into appetite, and ate half of it by himself: “You said this organizer is really funny, I used to be the host , but this year I have to change to a high-end one, so I am surprised, does my face look low-end?"

Hei Yu resisted the urge to grab salmon for Yuebai, with a smile on his face: "Dipping a piece of arctic shellfish with half a plate of mustard, it doesn't seem too high-end."

Yaohu propped his chin: "Then I think your brother is quite high-end. Yuebai, are you interested?"

Yuebai just wanted to have a quiet meal and get out of the way, but when he was about to refuse, Heiyu took the first step.

"Farewell, how can he be a coolie for you just after he was discharged from the hospital." Fearing that Yaohu would not give up, he found a reason, "Besides, I have already invited him, so you can hire someone else."

It was when Yuebai was sensitive that he retorted in disgust: "He didn't invite me, and I didn't agree to him either."

Hei Yu put down his chopsticks: "Then I invite you now."

Yuebai pulled away the hand that was held down by him: "No need."

Seeing their expressions, Yaohu understood everything, and patted the table: "Stop arguing, Yuebai has promised me!"

After coming out of the tavern, Yaohu was afraid that he would go back on his word and report the new arrangement.Yuebai, a patient recovering from a serious illness, walked faster than Heiyu, obviously unwilling to go with him.

After returning to the dormitory, everyone was busy with their own business. Seeing Yuebai finished washing, Heiyu stood by the door and finally found a chance to speak: "Then I turned off the lights?"

Yuebai didn't open his mouth, and nodded to the wall after lying down, but he didn't close his eyes until the room got dark and Heiyu went to bed.

Since he was discharged from the hospital, the person he fears the most is Hei Yu, and the thing he fears the most is sleeping, because when he sleeps, the person he fears the most will come to him in his dream and say those scary things to him.

It's my one-sided love for you.

You never liked me.

Yuebai, you are very good.

After saying that Hei Yu was going to hug him again, Yue Bai turned over to escape, immediately fell into the abyss, and woke up suddenly with cold sweat on his forehead.

Hei Yu didn't fall asleep either, and after hearing the movement, he called Yue Bai's name, lifted the quilt and got up.

"Did you have a nightmare?" He sat next to the other party's bed, holding a bottle of sleeping essential oil that had not been opened, "Rub some on the temples, it will work better than essential oils, otherwise you will doze off in the exam tomorrow."

Yuebai pretended to be asleep very calmly, and Heiyu could only pour some on her fingertips, and pressed the sides of the other's eyes in circles: "I can't even sleep well, there are so many postponed exams to prepare, and I promised Presiding over the ball, do you really think you are cured?"

There was no harshness in the flat tone, but it sounded quite distressed.

"I was talking nonsense during the meal, but now I really think about it. Yuebai, I invite you to be my dance partner, so stop hosting and save yourself some energy, okay?"

Yuebai listened attentively, every nerve tensed.He understood that Hei Yu had good intentions, but he really wanted to ask, in what capacity are you going to invite me?Brother, or boyfriend?

Forget it, it's just a ball, what is he being hypocritical about?

Sunday night passed in such a hurry, and according to Yuebai's class schedule last semester, he had to take eight deferred exams in the next five days.Once a person falls into study, he becomes much calmer. Not only does he forget about the prom, but he doesn't even have the energy to refuse when Black Feather picks him up to the library, brings him lunch, and gives him a massage before going to bed.

After dealing with one door after another, it was the last door on Friday in a blink of an eye.The weather is starting to warm up, and the big lawn in front of Pingcheng Tower finally reveals some fresh green in early spring. Couples of young couples are playing on it, some are lying on their laps, some are back to back, and some are kissing passionately. Holding the review materials and passing through without squinting, I feel that Valentine's Day is really approaching.

When I get the paper and write it, I will have no miscellaneous thoughts.It was still cold in the classroom, and my hands were numb after writing.The little girl who took the postponed exam together poked his back in the back row: "Move to the side, choose A or B for the fifth question, I didn't see clearly!"

Yuebai had never cheated before, he felt numb from his tailbone to Tianlinggai, at this moment the hand grabbed him again: "Come on, your suitor is here to pursue you, you should go quickly, leave the test paper on the table. "

Suitors?He looked towards the corridor, only to see Hei Yu was waving at him outside the window, and he was smiling very troublesomely.When he got nervous, he picked up the pen again and decided to check the paper again.

Interested in Valentine's Day?Still the test is interesting.

After the exam, he went out with the little girl, Hei Yu stuffed the still hot milk tea into his cold hands, his eyes were full of the love of picking up the kids from school: "Don't be so disgusted, it's already too late to stuff it into the crack of the door during your exam." I'm sorry for you."

With this week as a foreshadowing, Kuroba came to a conclusion - after shelving the basic contradictions, the two of them can still speak a few words calmly like ordinary friends.

Yuebai took a sip of the straw: "If you can't sleep, knead Fengyoujing, and put milk tea in the exam, you really know a lot."

Hei Yu was very proud: "Who said it wasn't? You taught me this before."

When he went downstairs, he talked about everything from headaches rubbing essential oils, to underground fights in bars, to the unique posture of delivering milk, all as fun childhood stories.Yue Bai remained silent, as if he was listening to a story about a stranger with the same name and surname as himself.Standing under the eaves of the door on the ground floor, I suddenly couldn't taste what milk tea was like.

Is he really the younger brother that Hei Yu said?

After picking up the bicycle, Kuroyu saw him throwing half of the remaining milk tea into the trash can: "What's the matter? Don't you like strawberry flavor the most?"

Yuebai walked aside holding the book: "I liked it before, but I don't like it now. I'll go to Yaohu to go through the process, so you don't have to send me."

Yaohu and a dozen staff members made final preparations in the ballroom, and after he came, he went through the entire process of the day.Yuebai held the schedule: "Why... the host is also responsible for the opening dance?"

Yaohu is very considerate: "It's very simple, and I have found a dance partner for you. She is our sister Yinghua's roommate, named Taohua. I know you well. I won't laugh at you if I step on your foot. Don't be nervous."

But Yuebai was still nervous. The night before the dance, she dreamed of memorizing the host manuscript, and the next afternoon, she misremembered the time of her arrival, and staggered several times when she went downstairs from the library.

He hurried out of the gate in a panic, and was caught off guard by a helmet thrown into his arms.

"Come on." I saw Hei Yu in a leather jacket and boots straddling the motorcycle, with one leg on the ground and a thumb towards the back seat, "If you hold on tighter, I will ride faster, if you don't like it, let them ride more." etc."

Yuebai didn't have time to argue with him, so she put her hands on her waist.Heiyu twisted his hand and jumped out, feeling the body of the person behind him sway, and he was completely attached to it.

He hid in his helmet and laughed secretly, all the way very securely.

As the Queen's make-up artist in this field, Meng Po has been squatting at the door with her hips on her hips for 15 minutes. Before Heiyu could squeeze the gate tightly, Yuebai was dragged off by her. Less than 30 seconds.

"Why are you here so late! Do you know that the host's makeup has to be put on for two hours! Why do you lose my memory and you are even more disliked by me than before!"

Yuebai was speechless, but fortunately he had good skin and didn't spend too much time on makeup.At almost five o'clock, Yaohu came in to count the number of people for the work meal, and shouted: "He hasn't had dinner yet! Put on makeup so early, don't starve to death!"

"Then be hungry!" The conscientious little make-up artist kept her hands on her hands and didn't give in. "If you're so afraid of suffering, just invite a companion to dance and dance. What else can you do as a host and show off!"

Yuebai was forbidden to speak, and felt aggrieved.Yaohu chuckled: "It's not that he wants to show off, he's just stupid, thinking that his brother and I have to agree to one."

After his brother delivered Yuebai, he abducted him to buy drinks and sushi, distributed them to the staff present, and sent the remaining portion to the dressing room: "Isn't it finished yet? The outside is starting to enter. "

"Hurry up! I'm getting my hair done!" Granny Meng's good partner, Shantu, was handing out red roses at the door. She was in a hurry by herself, "Tell me, why does a good boy have long hair! Otherwise I'll give you another LO skirt tonight, okay?"

Hei Yu served them dinner with a piece of sushi in each hand: "Why can't boys have long hair? Don't discriminate against us boys!"

Another boy curled his hair: "It's not very convenient." Not to mention that it took a long time to blow dry after washing, and was once recognized as a girl, "Cut it shorter on weekends."

Kuroba stopped immediately, as if Yuebai who had cut her hair was no longer the original Yuebai.He made an excuse and said: "The weather is still cold, let's talk about it in summer."

Half an hour before leaving the venue, Granny Meng withdrew after putting on her makeup. Yuebai held the host card and asked, "Don't you need to accompany your dance partner?"

Kuroba asked him to close his eyes and spray moisturizer: "Did you say Sakura? She and I have always entered the scene together, and she also has someone she wants to accompany."

Yuebai became more and more restless, Heiyu thought he was worried about him, and planned to leave, but when he reached the door, he was called to stop him.

He turned around holding the doorknob, Yuebai hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Can you dance?"

The door of the dressing room is very thin, and after the room is quiet, the warm-up music outside can be heard clearly.

Yuebai was brought to the center of the carpet, one hand was held up by Heiyu, and he was ordered: "Hold me."

He took a small step forward, gently pressed against Kuroyu's back waist, Kuroyu sighed, pressed him tighter, and then led him to move slowly in the open space.

He danced men's steps, and Hei Yu danced women's steps. Because they were about the same size, they would bump into each other easily if they were bigger, but they would step on each other's feet if they were smaller, which was very awkward.Hei Yu made him soften his body, but Yuebai was inexplicably cautious, staring at the toes of the two shoes for fear of making a mistake, he felt that the two pairs of feet were really close, he had never been so close to anyone face to face .

Kuroba hooked his chin: "Look at my eyes."

Yuebai was forced to raise his head, seeing his own shadow in a distance that was too close to be in focus, and took a step back abruptly.Black Feather pulled him back, but he bumped into the opponent's chest again and stepped on his foot.

Kuroba squeezed his wrist tightly: "Nervous?"

Yuebai closed her eyes, desperately making excuses: "It's a little... I can't remember."

There was a lot of voices outside, they hid in an empty room, their bodies approached and separated subtly.Hei Yu lowered her eyelashes and asked in a low voice, "Why are your hands so hot?"

Yuebai was completely confused, and he hugged him in front of him with a hook.Hei Yu stopped and put his palm on his forehead: "Do you have a fever?"

From chest to knees were pressed together tightly, Yuebai didn't dare to move, breathing hot air in his ear: "Look, you are still nervous."

"That's because..." The soft whisper made Yuebai's heart throb, and he tried to appear righteous, "Because I haven't presided over it before."

"Do you regret it?" Hei Yu placed both hands behind his waist, "Why don't you agree to be my dance partner."

"I..." He was terrified by the throbbing, so he could only learn what the demon fox said to Hei Yu first, "I won't regret it, because I didn't expect you two to agree at the time, so if you choose again Once, I won't agree to be your dance partner, because I won't come to the ball at all."

"Really." Hei Yu's expression couldn't tell whether it was disappointment or anger, and he put his finger on Yuebai's heart, "When a person tells a lie, the heartbeat speeds up. You beat very fast here."

Yuebai's mind was in a mess, and he just wanted to quickly get rid of everything related to Heiyu: "I'm serious!" He pushed Heiyu away, and took two steps back, "Just like my brother and my boyfriend, I can also be neither. Choose the same, I will not choose anyone!"

There was a knock on the door of the dressing room, and the demon fox shouted outside: "My dear host, it's almost time, I'm waiting for you to start!"

Yuebai shook her lips, said nothing to Heiyu, picked up the card in her hand and prepared to go on the stage.

Kuroba grabbed his wrist again, and he stopped, but didn't turn around.After waiting for a while, Kuroba returned to him with a rose petal: "The lip color is too white, it doesn't look good."

Yuebai didn't have the strength to fight anymore, so she held the petals in Heiyu's hand, and pressed slightly for a few seconds.

Black Feather nodded her lips: "It's not even here, just wipe it off."

Yuebai wiped it carelessly, and wiped it out again.Hei Yu was helpless, raised his face, tapped the smear of red with his fingertips and gently swiped towards his lips: "It's ok."

The annoying throbbing came again, Yuebai said "thank you" with hot lips, and hurriedly walked towards the door.Pushing the handle away, the noisy voices from outside came surging, and he heard a clear compromise mixed inside——

"Okay, then choose neither."
