Chen Yue got up from the snow and ran all the way home.

There were a few children watching the fireworks in the snow with pockets full of candies. When they saw a big one, they jumped up happily. They didn’t even know that the candy in their pockets had fallen. When they saw Chen Yue, they called him Gege softly.

When Chen Yue passed by, he grabbed a few candies on the ground and gave them back to the children, rubbed their hair, and left.

There was talk and laughter at home. Mother Chen was drinking tea and chatting with her neighbor. Chen Yue came in and took off his rubber boots and casually said hello to the woman sitting with his mother.

The woman joked, “Your Chen Yue has grown up and become sensible. He didn’t greet anyone in the past.”

Mother Chen pushed the fruit plate full of refreshments toward her and told her to be polite, “Everyone grows with each passing year, the children get taller every year, and we get older every year.”

The woman picked up two pieces of peanut candy and ate them, “It’s because we are getting old, especially after our children went to high school. As parents, we age faster. All the white hair on my head is from these two years.”

Mother Chen said with emotion, “They are all the same.”

The woman took a sip of tea and said worriedly, “My family’s girl studies very hard. After returning on vacation, she worked on questions every day until one or two in the morning and got up after less than five hours of sleep. We haven’t studied much either, she won’t ask us if there’s and we wouldn’t know anyway.”

Mother Chen thought about her son, who came back on vacation and slept till noon every day, hadn’t even turned over the homework book, and had not written his name on it yet. Her face twitched slightly, and she said slowly, “Your family’s girl is pretty good. Her grades are basically maintained in the top 20 in the class, and my son is always among the bottom.”

The woman smiled and said, “She is only among the top twenty in the class, not the whole grade.”

She said that, but she couldn’t hide the pride on her face. This person is afraid of being compared, but also likes to compare.

Mother Chen saw it in her eyes. She has also seen the injuries on her neighbor’s daughter’s face and heard about her running away from home afterward. She picked up a tangerine and peeled it open and ate it, “In every trade a master appears*. Don’t put too much pressure on your children.”

(*Idiom : You can produce outstanding achievements in any task, provided you put in enough love and diligence.)

The woman looked displeased, “You don’t know this. Pressure is the driving force for progress. How can they do it without pressure? The child must not be wasted, ah!”

Mother Chen smiled and patted her hand, “Okay, okay, let’s not talk about this during the New Year celebration.”

Some families adopt a laissez-faire model and are not overly concerned about their children’s academic performance. They just throw schoolbags behind when their children come home from school and let them watch TV or go out to play. It’s OK as long as they don’t do anything wrong.

But some families are different. Parents talk about their children’s homework and marks all day long. They can’t fly themselves and stay in their nests all their lives, so they give birth to a son or a daughter, and throw their children into the sky without caring about anything, hoping for them to fly.

If the child flies slower, the parents will wave their sticks behind them. Looking forward to the stars, looking forward to the moon, looking forward to the children being able to fly higher, higher than others. They don’t care whether the child is tired during the flight or whether he will fall down because he is too tired.

In the room, Chen Yue was tinkering with the door lock. Damn it, he said last time he would replace the broken one but hasn’t replaced it yet. His mind is full of Huang Dan, and he forgets other things quickly.

With no other choice, Chen Yue found an exercise book of suitable thickness and stuffed it in, fixing it between the door and the door frame. He tugged on the door and used a little force to pull it open. Let’s do this for now.

Chen Yue took out the diary from the drawer, opened the small lock, and opened it to write a love letter. He checked the dictionary while writing. If he wrote the wrong word, he would cross it out and write the correct word on it. He was only halfway through writing, and there were several underlines.

The more careful you try to be, the more likely you are to make mistakes. As Chen Yue wrote, he began to doubt some of the words, thinking they were not written that way. Only after looking up the dictionary did he realize that they were correct.

“There are so many people in the world, but I still met you, among the dark……”

Chen Yue subconsciously wrote one sentence and recited it. He felt that the sentence was not good and was about to cross it out and think again when the door was suddenly pushed open, accompanied by Mother Chen’s voice, “Mom is going out to visit relatives and friends to say New Year’s greetings and will be back soon. There is chicken stewing in the pot in the kitchen. Remember to go see……son?”

Fuck! Chen Yue hurriedly stuffed the diary into the drawer and didn’t even bother to pick up the black water-based pen on the table that had rolled to the ground.

Mother Chen usually knocks on the door before entering her son’s room. She forgot it because of chatting with her neighbor just now. She didn’t expect her son to be so panicked, “What bad thing have you done?”

Chen Yue pretended to be calm, “What what?”

Mother Chen came over, her eyes as sharp as needles, “Mom saw you stuffing things in the drawer, should you take it out yourself, or should you go and call your dad back so that our family can have a family meeting during the New Year?”

Chen Yue quickly opened the drawer, quickly took out a magazine, and threw it on the table, “Here you go!”

Mother Chen took one look at the scantily clad young girl on the cover of the magazine, and her anger rushed all the way to the top of her head. She couldn’t hold it back even on New Year’s Eve, and she pinched her son’s ears angrily, “Stinky boy, how old are you to read such unhealthy books? Do you understand? ”

Chen Yue hissed and tilted his head to whichever way his mother twisted his ears, “Leader, I made a small mistake. I promise I will never make it again next time.”

Mother Chen didn’t let go of her son’s ear. She used her other hand to grab the magazine, “Where did it come from?”

“I bought it from a bookstall.”

Chen Yue smiled playfully, “Mom, calm down, calm down. Losing your temper will cause wrinkles and age quickly. Just look at the person next door. She is the same age as you. If you two stand together, everyone will look at you. I think you are much younger.”

“Do you think that with a nice word, this matter can be resolved? What a wonderful idea!”

Mother Chen stopped twisting her son’s ears. She took the magazine and went outside, “Your mom, I don’t want to talk to you now. I’m going to find your dad. You just stay in the room.”

Mother Chen’s voice sounded outside the door, saying that like father, like son, she was the only one talking the whole time, and Father Chen didn’t even dare to say anything.

Chen Yue’s whole back was wet. Damn, he was almost scared to death just now. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. His heart was still beating fast, and his fingers were trembling, feeling guilty.

That magazine belonged to Liu Feng. Chen Yue had seen it on the other party’s table. He didn’t know when it appeared in his bag. He was afraid that his parents would find it, so he threw it into the drawer. He originally planned to bring it with him when he went back to find Liu Feng next time.

Chen Yue swallowed his saliva. Now the magazine was taken away by his mother, it would definitely die without any body parts. He picked up the water glass and drank a few big mouthfuls of cool plain boiled water. In any case, Liu Feng saved his life.

It’s not safe to write a love letter at school, and it’s not safe at home, so where should he write it?

Chen Yue rested his elbows on the table and grabbed his hair hard with both hands. Retribution, absolute retribution, usually others write love letters to him, and he didn’t take it to heart. This time it was his turn to write, even more so to his secret crush, how miserable.

The sound outside the door disappeared, and Father Chen opened the door and came in. He sat on his son’s bed in silence. His face was not only ordinary ugly, but also a little aggrieved.

Chen Yue pulled a piece of toilet paper and handed it over, “Dad, wipe your face, it’s full of saliva.”

Father Chen slapped his son’s hand away, “Isn’t this all your fault? You made your mother unhappy on New Year’s Eve. I don’t know what to say to you. You weren’t even careful when you looked at that thing and got caught red-handed by your mom!”

Chen Yue touched his nose and said, “Ginger is still spicy when it’s old. I’m a little younger. I can’t compare with you. I still have a lot to learn in the future.”

Father Chen looked at the door and lowered his voice, “The magazine belongs to Liu Feng, right?”

Chen Yue nodded, “Yeah.”

Father Chen stood up and paced around with his hands behind his back, “Why are today’s children so restless? When they are teenagers, they think about things in their twenties. How can they still hold the knowledge in textbooks with all the messy things in their minds? ”

Chen Yue said disapprovingly, “Dad, what you said is wrong. The desire for knowledge is innate and cannot be strangled in the cradle, especially at our current age. You are also a person who has been there, so you should know. Now is the time to cultivate your imagination.”

Father Chen left, and he was afraid that if he didn’t leave, his son would make him so angry that he would vomit blood.

Chen Yue stuffed the exercise book back into the crack of the door, then thought that it feels somewhat like a cover-up only makes matters worse, so he pulled it out. He secretly went to the place where the cigarettes were hidden, took out one and put it in his mouth. He didn’t light it, just satisfy his craving.

As soon as twelve o’clock passes, the new year arrives, and every house starts setting off firecrackers. People with wealthy families can buy firecrackers of much better quality, and a large string can last for a long time. People with average families can only make do with the few they buy, and they will be gone after a short burst.

Chen Yue was lying on the bed listening to music, with the light above his head on. He couldn’t sleep. After tossing and turning a few times, he sat up with his back against the headboard and thought about all sorts of things. Sometimes he thought about the first time he met Huang Dan on the day of the high school entrance examination, and sometimes he thought about Huang Dan squatting on the ground crying. He fell asleep when it was almost dawn.

Customs vary from place to place. Chen Yue’s family does not go out on New Year’s day. Pay respect to the departed-soul on the second day of the new year, pay respects to the maternal family on the third day, and pay respect to the in-laws on the fourth day.

Chen Yue nested at home for two days, and was called up by Chen’s mother on the morning of the third day.

Mother Chen was checking the things in the house for the visit. Cake must be available, brown sugar and white sugar must be selected, and longan must also be available, “The old one and the little one are of the same character, they won’t get up even after being called for a long time, and the noodles in the pot are all mushy.”

Chen Yue came out wearing a cotton-padded jacket, “It doesn’t matter whether it’s mushy or not.”

Mother Chen bent over and put the things into the bag, “That’s chicken soup noodles.”

Chen Yue sniffed, feeling a little cold, “It’s also a taste, Mom, you have this ability.”

Mother Chen put the bag in her hand on the ground, and her face, which could still be braided with a bit of elegance, suddenly stretched out, “Are you going to eat noodles or not?”

“Going, going, going now.”

After Chen Yue brushed his teeth and washed his face, he went to the kitchen. Smelling the fragrance, his appetite increased a little, so he went to the cupboard to get the dishes and chopsticks. The pot was steaming. The chicken and eggs were stewed on New Year’s eve, stewed slowly over low heat until it is tender, and bones are bones and the meat is meat. There is a big pot of it, they eat it on the first, second and third day of the New Year.

There are six or seven dishes on the top of the kitchen range, and a large pot of rice cooked with red beans, it’s all New Year’s Eve family dinner. Next, they will go to a relative’s house to pay New Year’s greetings. They eat very little at home, and feel tired after eating, so there are still some leftovers.

Chen Yue was full just by looking at the plate of braised pork that was all frozen and white. He smacked his lips, scraped the pot with a spatula, put an egg into the bowl, and picked up a few pieces of chicken, all of which were full of bones and little meat.

The noodles were in another pot, and they were really mushy. Chen Yue couldn’t pick them up with chopsticks, so he just put them on a big spoon and took two spoonfuls in succession.

When Chen Yue came out with the noodles, his mother was preparing something for his two Jiujiu. The noodles were finished, but his mom was not done yet.

When visiting relatives during the New Year, you bring a gift to my house, and I will change it and bring it to your house.

Chen Yue grabbed a handful of broad beans and ate them. As he ate them, he wondered what Huang Dan was doing. He must still be sleeping in.

At this time, Huang Dan was standing on the balcony, basking in the sun and doing exercises. He had never felt that it would be a bit lonely and deserted for him and Song Min to be alone at home.

Huang Dan feels it now, very clearly.

With a heavy weight on his shoulders, Huang Dan’s thoughts came back to him, and he pulled up his coat.

Song Min came up from behind, put on his coat, lowered his head and buttoned up the buttons one by one.

Huang Dan looked at Song Min’s hands. He had been doing housework and dealing with firewood, rice, oil and salt all year round. He didn’t see any skin care products, but there was no trace of corrosion of life on each finger.

Song Min asked, “What is Master thinking about?”

Huang Dan said, “I was thinking that since you are not working and I am still studying, should we save money? Even if we have a mountain of gold, there will be a day when we will run out of it.”

Song Min straightened the folds of his coat for him, “Master, you don’t need to worry, the money left by master and madam will last a few lifetimes.”

Huang Dan had asked, and he knew that the money was in Song Min’s account, and he would not find anything if he checked.

Song Min has taken good care of him over the years and has never said a harsh word to him. To him, Song Min is like his parents.

Huang Dan glanced at the men, women, and children downstairs carrying large and small bags to pay New Year greetings, “I don’t know what it feels like to visit relatives during the New Year.”

Song Min said, “There will be endless problems, endless comparisons, dullness and boredom.”

Huang Dan thought of a certain world he had traveled to, and pursed his lips, “It’s so boring, then why do they have to visit relatives every year?”

Song Min said, “It’s just human nature.”

Huang Dan asked the man, “Have you ever visited relatives?”

Song Min shook his head, “I haven’t been there before, but I’ve listened with my ears and seen with my eyes.”

Huang Dan wanted to say something else, but a gust of wind blowing in from the window disrupted his thoughts and he sneezed.

Song Min closed the window tightly and said, “Master, go watch TV in the living room.”

Huang Dan returned to the living room.

Song Min brought him a glass of water. The temperature was always just right. He took a sip and suddenly had an idea.

When he returns to the real world, he will find a life partner for Song Min.

People who can’t find any shortcomings like this shouldn’t be alone for the rest of their lives.

For adults, visiting relatives means playing mahjong and chatting. For children, visiting relatives means having delicious food and receiving fortune money, not to mention how happy they are.

Chen Yue is at an awkward age. He is no longer a child, and doesn’t receive new year’s money, nor an adult yet, so has no interest in those family heads.

After lunch, Chen Yue informed them and walked in the direction of the station. He wasn’t wearing much, and the wind was blowing into his neck, but his mood was so good that he felt like he was flying.

He hasn’t seen Huang Dan for a few days, and it feels like several years have passed.

Chen Yue met a car heading into the city on the way. He knew the driver. He often took the other person’s car back from school, which saved him a lot of time.

The driver’s car has been rented out, and he is going to the city to pick up the big family, “Classmate, what are you going to do in the city?”

Chen Yue said he was going to play, “Will there be a traffic jam?”

The driver said that the road was very congested in some sections, “It’s just after one o’clock now, you have time to play, don’t be anxious.”

Chen Yue said in his heart, why not be anxious? I am almost dying of anxiety.

When they got there, Chen Yue called from a nearby shop, “Hello?”

The response came from the other end, “Hello.”

Chen Yue raised his voice, “Hello!”

The other end still responded the same, “Hello.”

Chen Yue cursed irritably, “What a crappy phone, just hearing a hello!”

The boss felt that he needed to say something, “Is it possible that your friend only said hello? Why don’t you say a few more words? My phone is fine.”

Chen Yue，“……”

He half-turned around and said in one breath, “I’m Chen Yue. Come out and bring your homework book.”

Huang Dan asked, “Where?”

Chen Yue reported the location, “Hurry up!” Damn, I’m going crazy thinking about you.

About ten minutes later, Huang Dan appeared in front of Chen Yue.

Chen Yue quickly looked at him from head to toe and saw that he was not thin, “Won’t you wish me a happy new year?”

Huang Dan said, “Happy New Year.”

Chen Yue went to the stall and bought a pen, “Hand out.”

Huang Dan did as he was told.

Chen Yue took a pen and drew a watch on his wrist, “New Year’s gift, please don’t wash it off before the Lantern Festival.”

Huang Dan，“……”

The environment on the street is very noisy, and there are many stalls selling gadgets, including zodiac pendants, gourds, and little rabbits.

There is also a lot to eat, such as sizzling tofu, grilled rice cakes, grilled sausages, tofu curd, etc.

Huang Dan and Chen Yue each had a piece of sizzling tofu and just stood in the crowd eating it.

Chen Yue actually tasted the sizzling tofu and it tasted so sweet that his tooth ached.

Anyone who is with the person he likes is half-hearted, either a fool or an idiot.

Chen Yue finished his last bite of tofu and asked, “Go to play ball?”

Huang Dan said, “Okay.”

They went to the carnival again, and there were not a few more people than that time. Almost all the family members came out.

This didn’t happen that year. Huang Dan made another change when facing Chen Yue. He was absent-minded and lost.

Chen Yue thought that Huang Dan was going easy on him, and his face was as stinky as a stone in the pit. He threw the cue stick on the table, “Fuck, you look down on LaoZi, right?”

Huang Dan said, “No.”

Chen Yue sneered, “Didn’t you yield to LaoZi?”

Huang Dan said, “I merely slacked off.”

Chen Yue was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, “Even you can slack off?”

Huang Dan was speechless.

Chen Yue put his arm on his shoulder like a buddy, “Let me think about it, you slack off because you didn’t receive the new year’s money this year?”

Huang Dan said, “Never have it.”

Chen Yue was stunned. He felt sorry for the youngster. He was so old, but he never received any new year’s money. It was so pitiful.

Huang Dan didn’t explain. He didn’t have to worry about food or clothing. Song Min had arranged everything for him and he didn’t need pocket money.

Chen Yue took out a brand new five-yuan bill from his pocket, flexibly folded it into a five-pointed star and threw it towards the youngster, “Take it.”

Huang Dan reached out to catch it. He picked up the five-pointed star, narrowed his eyes slightly, and was stunned for a long time.

Chen Yue’s heart was pounding crazily, don’t you like it?, “You should just say something.”

Huang Dan said, “Thank you.”

Chen Yue raised his lips and said, starting from this year, I will give you fortune money every year.

The two teenagers went to find an empty seat on the second floor. One pretended to look through his homework and the other ate cake. The atmosphere was harmonious.

Chen Yue’s mind was not on his homework. This was their first date. It had to be reckoned with and they had to leave something memorable.

He threw the exercise book over and pointed at a place with a pen, still looking for a topic, “What is it about?”

Huang Dan took a look and told Chen Yue seriously.

Chen Yue couldn’t help but look at the youngster’s lips that kept opening and closing, his long eyelashes fluttering, and the hand he stretched out, which was long, white, and very clean.

What a fine boy ah, if only he could be his.

Chen Yue stopped looking at his homework and put it all in his bag, “Hey, do you want to go play a game?”

Huang Dan swallowed the cake in his mouth, “I can’t.”

Chen Yue stared at the corner of Huang Dan’s mouth, his eyes were dark once and bright again, he gulped. After realizing that he was about to be exposed, he sighed and said contemptuously, “Are you a child? You ate a piece of cake and it was all over your mouth.”

Huang Dan wiped it with a paper towel.

Chen Yue stood up and walked towards the stairs, saying casually, “Follow me if you want to play, and do whatever you like if you don’t.”

Huang Dan didn’t move, he was hesitating whether to make any more changes.

Chen Yue was smart. He deliberately left the bag containing his homework on the table. If Huang Dan didn’t follow him, this excuse would come in handy.

A voice came from behind, “You forgot to bring your homework book.”

Chen Yue grinned, and when he turned around, he had that handsome and arrogant posture again.

Huang Dan said, “I can only play for one hour.”

If he doesn’t go back after that time, Song Min will come out to find him.

The villain in Chen Yue’s heart was dancing and gesticulating with joy. He scoffed, “You are indeed an obedient child.”

Not long after, Huang Dan and Chen Yue were sitting in an Internet cafe. He was watching the news, then turned around and asked, “What game are you playing?”

Chen Yue said it was the legend, “The third icon in the first row on the desktop is, click on the game first, and then register an account. You don’t need me to teach you this, right?”

Huang Dan did so and named himself 123.

Chen Yue’s face was twitching, so damn random. His attention was all on the youngster, “Where’s your IQ of 205?”

Huang Dan said, “Don’t talk, I will look into it myself.”

Chen Yue，“……”

Is this too much? He lit a cigarette depressedly.

Huang Dan turned his head and looked over.

Chen Yue felt uncomfortable being looked at. He was smoking cigarettes, not drugs, “What are you looking at?”

Huang Dan didn’t say anything.

At the end of an hour, Huang Dan went back. Chen Yue stood and watched in the corner of his house for a long time before leaving.

It’s worth the trip.

At around three o’clock in the afternoon on the seventh day of the New Year, Huang Dan heard the phone ring in the living room. He dropped his book and walked over to pick up the receiver. The host’s sweet voice came over there, “Are you Huang Dan?”

He said yes, already knowing what he would hear.

The host continued, “A listener dedicated a song for you, called 《Simple Love》, and the next time is the playing time of this song.”

At that time, Huang Dan hung up as soon as he listened to the beginning, but this time he didn’t hang up and listened to the whole song carefully.

Chen Yue likes him in a young and immature way. As long as he pays a little attention, he will find many details, but he completely ignored them back then.

At the end of the winter vacation, everyone met in school and felt that each other was much cuter.

Jiang Long had a girl he liked, but his crush didn’t last long, and he fell in love with another girl.

Notes were no longer passed around in the class, instead notebooks and diaries were passed. You write a paragraph and I reply with a paragraph, and the person passing it on won’t peek.

Spring is the season when flowers bloom, and the air is filled with the fragrance of flowers. If you smell them more, your mood will become better, and you won’t even hate the boys and girls you don’t want to see.

Jiang Long was obsessed with his secret love, and Liu Feng also had someone he liked. He held back two classes to write out a love letter, but was unlucky enough to be caught by his class teacher.

Old Wei took the piece of letter paper and asked Liu Feng, “Tell me, who is this written to?”

People around him looked at it from different angles, curious about what was written on it.

Liu Feng’s face was dark and would not turn into a monkey butt, but his face was already very hot, “I wrote this to myself, in order to commemorate my lost youth.”

The girls covered their mouths and laughed, and the boys also laughed. Old Wei said, “Really? Your youth has passed away?”

Liu Feng made a melancholy expression and said, “Yes.”

Old Wei said, “That’s a pity.”

The corner of Liu Feng’s mouth twitched. If the class teacher read it out in front of the whole class, he would rush forward and stuff it into his mouth.

Old Wei didn’t do that, saving him some face and not embarrassing him in public, “Go to my office after class.”

Liu Feng stared at the class teacher’s back. Damn it, you’re not going to return my love letter to me?

Wouldn’t it be shared with other teachers? Liu Feng couldn’t sit still. Thinking of that scene made his eyes darken, as if he had already seen his parents walking into the school.

Chen Yue gloated, “I sympathize with you.”

Liu Feng rolled his eyes. He had referred to the love letters written by others to Chen Yue. When he saw good sentences, he would copy them in and piece them together. It was really not easy.

Okay now, no more fun.

Chen Yue raised his head and asked, “Have you written your name?”

Liu Feng said he didn’t write it, “I’m thin-skinned. If I write my name and she returns the love letter to me, or if her deskmate takes it away and reads it out loud, wouldn’t I be disgraced and thrown to my grandma’s house?”

Chen Yue raised his eyebrows, “If you don’t write your name, how will she know it was you?”

Liu Feng said she didn’t need to know, “I’ll just tell her my feelings.”

He said weirdly, “Bro, the love letter you received can be packed in a rice basket, why are you still asking from me?”

Chen Yue shrugged, “I don’t remember anything from before. The most recent ones all have names.”

Liu Feng couldn’t believe it, “Girls are getting better and better, and they are not shy at all.”

Chen Yue closed his eyes and thought, should he leave his name?

To leave or not to leave, that’s the big question.

Think about it, think it through before sending it off. Chen Yue looked at the back of Huang Dan’s head and felt that he had encountered the first problem in life and had to solve it.

One morning, Huang Dan found a love letter hidden in the Chinese language book on the table. It happened to be that he had to memorize text on that page in his early self-study. It was folded in the shape of an acacia leaf, not a heart. In order to avoid any unexpected problems, he also opened it and took a look.

The straight handwriting came into view. Huang Dan knew it was not written by Chen Yue, but he still took a rough look. He put the love letter into his desk pocket and went to look for the white rabbit in the corner as usual, but he saw it folded into a heart shaped sky blue paper.

Huang Dan’s hand paused. He counted the days and found that this love letter was most likely written by Chen Yue.

Because he will be on duty in a few days, he will overhear Chen Yue talking to himself in the corridor about the love letter that night, and the time is almost up.

Huang Dan rubbed his forehead. Chen Yue must have been secretly watching him at this moment, always paying attention to his every move. According to the original development, he threw the love letter into the trash can without even reading it.

But now he wants to see it, and he really wants to see it.

Throughout the morning, Huang Dan was thinking about how to read the love letter without Chen Yue’s knowledge. His distraction was very subtle and would not be noticed without careful observation.

Chen Yue was obviously distracted.

Why hasn’t Huang Dan read the love letter he wrote yet? Will he guess it was him after reading it? What will he do if the other party guesses it? He won’t hand it over to the class teacher, right?

The above are all the contents in Chen Yue’s mind, and those are only part of them.

Chen Yue bent down on the desk and knocked his head. He felt that he had aged ten years in such a short time. He was very nervous and panicked.

Before that love letter took shape, he wrote many love letters. Every time he finished writing, he would read it from beginning to end and cross out the ones he felt were not good.

Don’t know where all the patience and energy comes from, but he just doesn’t get bored.

Chen Yue unconsciously picked up the pen and turned it around. Did he write everything correctly? He checked it word by word, there should be no problem.

During the lunch break at noon, Huang Dan seized the opportunity. He opened the love letter which contained a combination of Chinese and English. The last stroke of each word in the Chinese part was very long, sweeping all the way to the end, as if branches were growing upside down.

Ignoring the grammatical errors, Huang Dan pretended to clean up the desk, put his head in the desk pocket, took the love letter closer, and read line by line.

My princess:

The first time I saw you was around one o’clock in the afternoon on the second day of the high school entrance examination. There were many people at the examination center at that time. I saw you at a glance, you were the brightest star, I couldn’t help but follow you, to find out which examination room you were in, and to find out your school. Sitting in the examination room that day, my mind was full of you.

I came to Daguan because of you. You are here, so I came. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t know where I have been or what I have been doing at this moment.

When I discovered that I was thinking about you all the time, I felt like I was finished. I checked online and found that this is not a disease. I am physically and mentally healthy. Really, I am not sick. Don’t treat me as a pervert.

I have never liked anyone. This is the first time I have liked someone, and it’s a boy like me. I don’t know what to do. I usually provoke you just to attract your attention. Do you think I resemble an idiot? Not resembled. I am.

Every time I see you crying, I feel sad. I want to go over and talk to you, and I want to hug you, but I dare not, for fear that you will look at me like a lunatic.

I bought a lot of hearttex. If you cry in pain, feel free to cry. I will wipe your tears with tissues. Don’t be afraid. I will always be with you. If anyone dares to bully you, I will definitely bully them back for you.

You like to eat White Rabbit candies, I will buy you one every day from now on, okay?

My dad said that a man should be responsible, and I think I am. You see, since I like you, I will never give up or back down. I will either not like you at all, or I will like you for the rest of my life.

……

The world is so big, but I can meet you. This must have been destined long ago, don’t you think?

I like you very very much. If you don’t like me, I still like you. If you never like me, I will still like you. Huang Dan, I like you.

In the lower right corner of the letter paper were written two letters – CY.

Huang Dan finished reading it word for word. He carefully restored it according to the original creases so that it could not be seen that it had been opened and read. After that, he deliberately woke Jiang Long and exposed the love letter to the other party.

Jiang Long opened his eyes wide, his face full of envy, “How many letters do you receive in a day, Gege? Are you going to let people live?”

Huang Dan didn’t say anything.

Jiang Long saw that he had thrown the love letter into his desk pocket, “Why don’t you open it and take a look?”

Huang Dan shook his head, “I won’t look anymore.”

Jiang Long didn’t have a loud voice, but he didn’t lower his volume deliberately. His conversation with Huang Dan was heard by everyone around him, and soon everyone in the class knew about it.

Behind him, Chen Yue suddenly stood up. He couldn’t control himself and rushed forward, but Liu Feng grabbed him, “What are you doing?”

Chen Yue shook off his hand and said, “Get lost!”

Liu Feng also stood up and cursed angrily, “Did you eat gunpowder?”

Chen Yue’s eyes glared over.

Liu Feng closed his mouth. Something was wrong, something was too wrong. According to his understanding, Chen Yue was extremely sad and angry. He was offended by others and his eyes were red.

Who dares to mess with him? Liu Feng looked in the direction where Chen Yue was going. That person was among the people in several rows in front.

After school, Huang Dan didn’t leave. He took out his homework book and did his homework. He didn’t leave until everyone in the classroom was gone. He went downstairs and threw the love letters into the trash can, including Chen Yue’s one.

After Huang Dan left, Chen Yue, who was hiding in the corner, took out the love letter from the trash can and held it in his hand. He wiped his eyes hard. What was thrown away was not only a love letter, but also his own heart.

“Damn it, you see everyone else’s stuff, why don’t you look at mine?”

Chen Yue cursed, his eyes getting redder and redder. He covered his eyes with the back of his hand, “Why didn’t you even look at it….. Fuck, Isn’t there still possiblity to see you every day? It’s not a life-and-death separation. What is there for LaoZi to cry about, it must be that the wind is too strong!”

Huang Dan didn’t just leave like he did back then. He circled around and came back. In the corner, he looked at the young boy’s young face, which showed sadness, anger, grievance, confusion, and helplessness, and slowly became firm again.

It is precisely because of this determination that there is a secret love in this world that has persisted for fourteen years.

Huang Dan closed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth turned up in a gentle arc. Chen Yue, thank you for working so hard to like me, and thank you for still liking me.
