Spring is here, and it's time to...

Although Xuan Yi is two years older than Bai Yan, he is actually only one grade higher than him.

Bai Yan was in the second year of junior high school, and Xuan Yi was in the third year of junior high school.

In the third grade of junior high school, there is one more class, and the end of school is 10 minutes later than that of the first and second grade of junior high school.In the past, Xuan Yi would immediately put on his schoolbag and go to the opposite teaching building to find Bai Yan to go home with him, but now it was Bai Yan who was carrying his schoolbag and waiting at the gate of Xuan Yi's class for four or ten minutes.

Xuan Yi felt sorry for him, and always told Bai Yan not to wait, if you must wait, find a place to sit.But Bai Yan just didn't listen, and wanted to wait for Xuan Yi to come out at the door of their class.

Over time, the teacher in the third grade also got to know Bai Yan in the second grade, and sometimes jokingly asked him if he wanted to come in to attend classes.

Bai Yan always has a special feeling for Xuan Yi, not just a friend, it's more like he doesn't want his pet to get close to others, and hopes that he only wags his tail at him.

What this kind of feeling is, he himself is not very clear.

So when the teacher asked him if he wanted to come in to attend the class, he went in with a playful smile on his schoolbag.

Xuan Yi is a transfer student, usually he doesn't talk much in class, he always looks docile and has no temper, and he doesn't complain about being placed in the corner of the last row.

But this was in line with Bai Yan's wishes, because there was an empty seat next to Xuan Yi, and he could just sit there.

When Bai Yan threw the schoolbag into the drawer, Xuan Yi was still brushing his notes with his head down, without saying a word to him.

Even though he knew that Xuan Yi had been working as hard as he could on learning, he was still somewhat dissatisfied with being ignored.

"Xuan Yi—" Bai Yan lay down on the table and called the other party's name in a drawn out voice, "Look at me."

Xuan Yi's eyes were still glued to the blackboard, but he couldn't hold back a smile, and answered him while writing: "What are you doing?"

"I'm prettier than a blackboard."

While speaking, Bai Yan stretched out his hand and poked Xuan Yi's soft waist, making him almost jump up in fright.

He finally turned his head to look at Bai Yan, and said helplessly, "Don't make trouble."

Seeing that Xuan Yi was not angry, Bai Yan grabbed his left hand to play with.

Although Xuan Yi is two years older than Bai Yan, he has a small frame and his hands are a circle smaller than Bai Yan.The hand being held was very soft, and there was always a feeling of pinching the dog's pad in the hand.

So cute.Bai Yan thought to himself.

On the surface, Xuan Yi seemed calm and showed no special expression, but Bai Yan pinched his ears and tail almost to the point of protruding.

He put down his pen, hesitated to speak, looked at the innocent-looking Bai Yan, and said, "Yan Yan."

If Bai Yan let out his animal-shaped tail, that thing must have been so proud of himself.

"...You, can you squeeze it later?"

Bai Yan acted obediently when he got a bargain, still holding Xuan Yi's paw, and answered the wrong question: "Brother's hands are smaller than mine."

Xuan Yi really had nothing to do with him, so he had to reply with a cold face on purpose: "Just listen to the class carefully when you come in."

Xuan Yi seldom shakes his face at Bai Yan. Seeing him like this, Bai Yan shrank back in an instant, and replied repeatedly: "I'll listen, I'll listen."

Xuan Yi's expression finally calmed down, he tilted his head to look at Bai Yan, but he didn't break free from the hand that was holding him tightly.

On the way home, Bai Yan habitually walked in front, while Xuan Yi followed behind him at a distance of one step.Sometimes Bai Yan thought Xuan Yi was walking slowly, so he would stretch out his hand instead and pull him forward a little.

Today, when Bai Yan was about to reach out to grab Xuan Yi, he found nothing. He turned around suspiciously, and found that Xuan Yi was squatting several meters away from him... staring blankly at a fat cat.

Bai Yan frowned, and was about to make a sound, but Xuan Yi quickly turned his head and made a "shh" gesture to him, and the little leopard who was about to explode had no choice but to close his mouth aggrieved.

Xuan Yi carefully stretched out his hand to touch the fat orange on the side of the road, but the fat orange seemed to sense the danger signal from the dog, not only jumped three feet away, but even eagerly scratched the stupid dog's paw.

Realizing that Fat Ju obviously had bad intentions for him, Xuan Yi quickly took his hand back, and looked at Bai Yan again with disappointment and a little bit of grievance in his eyes.

Bai Yan said "Hi" and asked, "Want to touch?"

Hearing this, Xuan Yi's eyes lit up again, he pursed his lips and nodded, almost couldn't help wagging his tail at Bai Yan.

Bai Yan knelt down beside him, beckoning to Fat Ju like a punk, "Come here."

Fat Ju is just an ordinary kitten, unable to resist the coercion from the big cats, he reluctantly moved forward two steps, then put his head into Bai Yan's palm and rubbed it perfunctorily.

The next second, Bai Yan couldn't help but pick up the kitten's front paw, and threw it into Xuan Yi's arms, "Touch it, and go home after touching it."

He nodded Fat Ju's head as a warning, "Don't scratch him."

Xuan Yi hugged the soft and fluffy thing in his arms in surprise, and said incoherently: "Thank you, thank you."

Bai Yan shrugged his shoulders noncommittally, indicating that this was just a matter of little effort, and then quietly thought to himself: What's wrong with this fat man?Why doesn't Xuanyi touch me?I can also conjure ears and tails for him to touch...

When Xuan Yi had had enough of playing with cats, Bai Yan just bought two ice creams from the small shop nearby.

Bai Yan casually handed one of them to Xuan Yi, but took it back the moment the other party was about to take it, and stuffed the other into his hand.

Xuan Yi's hand was in mid-air for a while, and after realizing it, he squinted his eyes and smiled, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, Yan Yan."

The ice cream that Bai Yan didn't give him was chocolate flavored.

Such similar but different evenings, they spent many together, the days were so long that Xuan Yi could hardly remember how long he had survived the miserable and lonely life.

He only remembered the day when Bai Yan dragged him out of the darkness and lit his universe with a torch.

At the time of Xuan Yi, Bai Yan had just turned sixteen not long ago.

They are a senior and a sophomore. Although they are only separated by one grade, they seem to be separated by a whole world.

Although Bai Yan, a sophomore in high school, has excellent grades, he still doesn't have a clear understanding of the college entrance examination, and he still lives in style all day long. He should play ball and sleep.

But Xuan Yi in the third year of high school was different, he was not a talkative person, and he always felt that he was dependent on others and could not embarrass Su Yunmeng and Bai Zhiheng, these pressures made Xuan Yi even more taciturn.

Bai Yan was very puzzled by this. Leaving aside their family's wealth, it is no problem to support ten idlers. What's more, Xuan Yi's grades are already very good, so there is no need to study at two or three o'clock in the morning every day.

Of course, what made Bai Yan most uncomfortable was that he asked Xuan Yi out to play many times, but was rejected every time.This once made him wonder if he did something that made Xuan Yi unhappy, the other party was obviously not like this before.

When the college entrance examination was approaching, Xuan Yi, who had a long reflex arc, finally realized that Bai Yan seemed unhappy.

He took off his glasses and wiped them on the hem of his clothes, put them back into the glasses case and put them away, got up and left his room.

The light in the next room was still on, Xuan Yi knocked lightly on the door, and then Bai Yan's voice came from inside: "Mom! Help me..."

Halfway through Bai Yan's words, he realized that the fluffy head protruding from the crack of the door was not his mother, but Xuan Yi.

Xuan Yi walked in without saying a word, leaned against Bai Yan's desk and tried to speak: "Yan Yan..."

Bai Yan gave a very noble and cold "Mmm" to show his dissatisfaction.

"Are you unhappy?"

Bai Yan: "..."

"Tell me if you're not happy." Xuan Yi stretched out his paw and snorted at Bai Yan's hair, just like Bai Yan often rubs him.

"Would you like to go out with you after I finish the college entrance examination? You can do whatever you want."

Bai Yan didn't answer, but caught off guard and hugged Xuan Yi's waist, and buried his entire face in his arms.

It took him a while to speak.

He said: "I don't want anything, I just want you."
