CH 32

PUBLISHED ON 6 March 2023

Xin Yi acquired a boyfriend on his birthday, and also a beating from his fathers and mother, also the suffering was very light, but Xin Yi still felt very wronged.

“But you guys didn’t ask me…”

How could he have known that gender was that important.

“It’s not because of that.”

Xin Shao frowned, and felt for the first time that he was too relaxed with him.

“Xiao Yi, do you know… his past?”

His family learned that he got himself a boyfriend, and he was also personally caught by Yu TingYun, they didn’t disturb the little kid’s sleep, only looked into who Zhou MuHui was on the same night, and noticed something wrong when they were done with it.

Xin Yi’s lover, is not some kind of regular kid.

He originally thought that Xin Yi didn’t know about it, or only knows some part of it, but Xin Yi said he knows.

He knows it from the beginning to the end.

Xin Yi got drunk, but didn’t save them from trouble, waking up from a sweet dream, the first thing he remembered wasn’t the embarrassment of being caught by Yu Ting Yun last night, but the bus station after the rain, Zhou MuHui’s low and dull narrative.

As if he was talking about someone else’s matter, but Xin Yi was lost in thought for a long time while hugging his cat.

Xin Yi first acted nice, said that Zhou MuHui was very good, and guaranteed to his parents, the other party wasn’t some kind of evil person.

“Mom, he was also scared, if there was someone who was about to hurt you, I would also fight him.”

Xin Shao’s brows still didn’t straighten, as if thinking about something, Xin Yi saw that he was a bit strange, but when he was about to ask something, Xin Shao shook his head, and didn’t continue to speak.

The adults were wearing troubled looks, but Xin Yi was so happy that he wasn’t able to find the North, Zhou MuHui became his proper boyfriend, Xin Yi can hug, can kiss, can do whatever he wants to do, and do everything he wants to do.

He sent Zhou MuHui a text in class, going to find Zhou MuHui in the evening after class, they sat on the floor eating street food, Zhou MuHui would give him the egg from his own bowl, Xin Yi returned to the carrots he doesn’t like to eat.

They were like a normal couple, quietly in love within the gaps in time, Xin Yi still liked to sneak attack him like usual, hold his hand, kiss his face, and accompany him to the bar after he got off work, or Zhou MuHui sent him home.

His family didn’t talk about being opposed again, when Zhou MuHui came over the over day he was called upstairs by his father Yu NanShan, Xin Yi doesn’t know what they talked about, but when they came down, Xin Shao made Zhou MuHui stay for dinner, Xin Yi sat on the chair and sneakily looked at him, and was fiercely knocked on the head by Yu TingYun who was beside.

Xin Yi smiled sheepishly, acting spoiled to his dad, he could see his family’s behavior, although not very happy, but didn’t really make it difficult for Zhou MuHui.

When Zhou MuHui left Xin Yi also wanted to follow after him, but was only allowed to send him to the door, Zhou MuHui was wearing a nice shirt, Xin Yi was bewitched by him, carrying the cat and looking at him dizzily.

He wanted to kiss Zhou MuHui, but was afraid that Zhou MuHui would not agree, the man frowned slightly, the look he used to look at him was also extremely calm, Xin Yi thought he was going to be pushed away, but he actually wasn’t.

Zhou MuHui pulled him toward the rose bushes outside, and before he raised his head and leaned closer, kissed him first.

This is the first time Zhou MuHui kissed him, although very short, although very lightly, Xin Yi was still very happy, he surely will make this day Zhou MuHui’s anniversary, piling it on top of his birthday, in this way, Zhou MuHui can celebrate it with him.

Xin Yi likes holidays, because he would receive a lot, a lot of love during holidays, Xin Yi also wants Zhou MuHui to have it.

Xin Yi would sometimes pull Zhou MuHui home to have a meal, but Yu TingYun didn’t agree to it, he find Zhou MuHui unpleasant to the eye no matter how he look at him, feeling that Zhou MuHui abducted his family’s little kid, Xin Yi begged him, pulled Xin Shao out for help, Xin Yi was in a dilemma, but in the end still decided to allow it.

Unilaterally suppressing Yu TingYun’s no.

Yu Tingyun resisted to no avail, was angry for a long time, and did not speak to Xin Yi for two or three days, Xin Yi went to find him at his company, asking puzzled, “Dad, why?”

Yu TingYun was working at that time, and was stunned hearing him speak, only saying after a while, “Little Xin Yin, you deserved better.”

His family hasn’t called him like this for a long time, after Xin Yi slowly grew up, his dad and mom unanimously changed this way of calling him.

As if hiding the soft from that brave and strong child when he was young, not wanting him to suffer any harm.

“It’s okay.”

Xin Yi was stunned, then walked and squatted down in front of him, looking at him seriously.

Yu TingYun stopped working on the things in his hand, lowered his head to look at him, their little kid has grown up, the kid who was following behind him eagerly when he was little saying dad don’t go, the kid pulling him to wear dinosaur onesie and sing together with mom to sing little green dragon, unknowingly grew up into an adult. 

Knowing to be happy for others, knowing to worry for others, as his mother wished, gentle, soft, although often dumb and dull-witted, but is a kid who is happy every day. 

He never had any high expectations from Xin Yi, only hoping that he could be happy, wherever he wanted to like boys or girls didn’t matter, but Zhou MuHui was too special.

Yu TingTun cannot bear to see him endure any hardship in the future.

But his kid was smiling, looking up and looking softly at himself, his gaze was the same as his mother’s years ago, gentle, brave, moving forward bravely.

Eternally unchanging, the obstination toward love. 

“He is already very good…”

Xin Yi held his hand, and said softly, “Dad, no one is better than him.”

His Zhou MuHui, is a treasure he wants to put in his heart, maybe some people don’t value him, don’t love him, but it’s ok.

Xin Yi will give him a lot, a lot of love, along with everything before, making it up altogether for him.

Xin Y lost sleep during the winter night of his twenty years old, and began to seriously consider the matter of marriage.

Zhou MuHui resigned from his job at Wen Miao after his (XY) college entrance exams, starting to concentrate on taking care of the store in his hand, Xin Yi’s vacations started early on, often running over to find him, staying for a whole day every time.

But right at that time his family had something to deal with, Xin Yi and his parents left S city for half a month, and when they came back, unexpectedly noticed that a girl was working at Zhou MuHui’s workplace.

Coming to find Zhou MuHui every two or three days consecutively. 

Xin Yi ran into them by coincidence on the first day, he originally wanted to surprise Zhou MuHui, how could he know that he didn’t even turn out of the corner that he saw his own boyfriend being confessed to. 

A pretty girl that is fragrant and soft, blocked in front of Zhou MuHui not letting him go, raising her head saying she likes him, Zhou MuHui didn’t wear his mask, the face under the dim yellow light was as handsome as ever that it made people’s heart flutter, Xin Yi was stunned for a moment, squatting in the corner and staring at them in a daze

Because Zhou MuHui didn’t leave immediately. 

And even stayed for a while, talking with her.

This is the first time Xin Yi bumped into him being confessed to, he knows that Zhou MuHui is very good, and is worthy of everyone’s liking, but when he really comes to see it, he still cannot help but feel hurt.

He wants Zhou MuHui to only like him, not look at others anymore.

Xin Yi didn’t even turn his head and headed back home, sprawled on his bed and was being angry at Zhou MuHui. 

His anger was totally unjustified, he obviously knew that he was wrong, but still couldn’t help it. MaoMao at one side jumped over, meowing, Xin Yi pursed his mouth, pulling him tightly into his embrace, looking at his phone that kept lighting up, his heart feeling torn, and still turned it over angrily.

But his anger deflated on the second day, the little kid’s anger came quickly and was gone as soon as Xin Yi saw the four or five texts that Zhou MuHui sent over, and became happy for no reason, and planned to give Zhou MuHui another surprise. 

As a result, he bumped into her again.

The girl and Zhou MuHui were in the alley beside, Xin Yi was very close, and heard her confess to Zhou MuHui one more time, she said a lot, praising Zhou MuHui, praising herself, Xin Yi listened to her for half a day, and suddenly turned around.

He didn’t hide on a purpose, but Zhou MuHui just didn’t see him, Xin Yi was angry and wronged, the cat at the corner of the alley wanted to go, he felt that he shouldn’t keep up with his surprises, or else he would be angered to death first. 

But just when he moved, he heard Zhou MuHui’s voice.

Aloof, almost impersonal. 

“I’ve said it, I have a partner.”

Xin Yi was stunned, blinked, then obediently returned to his original position.

He stretched his head out of the corner, and saw Zhou MuHui frown and turned around, Xin Yi pursed his lips into a smile, fingers clinging to the end of the red brick wall, the hint of a smile hidden in his eyes. 

But not even a moment later, he suddenly changed his expression.

The girl chased Zhou MuHui, grabbing Zhou MuHui’s hand forcefully.

“Not even married, freedom to love! Could it be that she is more beautiful than me?”

“……”

Xin Yi was stunned, for a moment he wasn’t sure if he should be angry at her words first, or angry at her ill-behaved movement, but then his head was throbbing with anger.

The other party was taking a foot after getting an inch, she actually hugged Zhou MuHui!

Xin Yi jumped out of the corner, like a cat with his fur standing up, and stormed over in a threatening manner.

“Husband!”

Xin Yi called him.

Zhou MuHui was stunned, even forgetting to push away the other party, looking at Xin Yi startled. 

Xin Yi didn’t care about him, his eyes seemed to be frozen, and he looked at the other party angrily, then pulled her hand down.

“Why are you hugging my husband!”

Xin Yi glared at her, “He already said that he has a partner.”

“……”

The girl was pushed away by him, opened her mouth in shock, and said after a long moment, “Really is?”

“Of course it’s true.” Xin Yi barked in front of Zhou MuHui, and added viciously, “I also think that I am better looking than you.”

“……”

The girl stopped speaking, looking at him awkwardly, probably because she didn’t think that a partner would really jump out, and furthermore, a boy.

“… I didn’t do anything.”

After a while, she took a step back, looking at Xin Yi bluffing, “You are only going out together, could it be that you won’t allow others to strive for?”

“……”

“Of course I won’t allow it!” 

Xin Yi was almost angered to death, not understanding what her logic is, “How do you know that we are only going out together, we are not playing house.” 

The other party did not refute, Xin Yi was glaring at her angrily, going ahead of her.

“Don’t think about it, every cause has a consequence, and his wife is me1! You really have the guts, I think you don’t know.” 

“Bye bye!”

Xin Yi said loudly.

“……”

The girl was stuck, with black lines all over her face, “…Damn gay.”

But left like a thief with a guilty conscience.

Xin Yi waited until she left before turning around, and looking at Zhou MuHui fiercely, asking, “I am good looking or she is good-looking?”

Zhou MuHui paused for a moment, then lowered his head to laugh. 

His wrist is still held by Xin Yi, but Zhou Muhui didn’t seem to have the slightest attention to pull away, even using this position to hold him back, saying, “You are good-looking.”

His voice was low, but it carried a smile, Xin Yi was done being angry, then squirmed and leaned against his body, sulking.

“When did you come back?”

Xin Yi glanced at him from the corner of his eye, then said with an angry tone, “Yesterday!” 

And then Zhou MuHui, he held the little kid’s frozen hands until it was a bit red in his palms, leading him inside. 

“What are you doing, I am very angry right now, and won’t forgive you, don’t……”

The voice stopped abruptly, because Zhou MuHui lowered his head, and kissed him.

“Next time tell me when you’re back.”

Zhou MuHui rubbed against his lips, and said in a whisper.

“… I’m not going to.”

Xin Yi was kissed by him until he lost his spirit, but used a pair of misty eyes to glare at him. 

Who told him to have that many contacts with that person, not pushing her away early on. 

“Was driving her away already.” Zhou MuHui was very soft, the slow rise and fall were making his lips numb, “Have been driving her away since yesterday.”

“I said I don’t like girls.”

“……”

“Not right!”

Xin Yi was even more angry, biting his lips angrily.

“You have to say you like me!” 

He said vaguely and angrily.

Zhou MuHui smiled, good-naturedly letting him bite, and nodded while keeping this posture. 

“Zhou MuHui, you cannot like someone else…”

Xin Yi finished venting, and felt wronged again, let go of him and leaned against the wall to watch him

“You can only like me.”

It was the sweetheart that Xin Yi worked hard to chase, the person that he wanted to protect for a whole life, and cannot look at someone else.

Not even a single glance.

“En.”

Zhou MuHui coxed him patiently, and gently wiped off the wetness on his lips with his thumb.

“You have to reply to texts.”

“……”

Xin Yi was obviously angry, but turned around and was scolded by him, he lost the momentum of playing dirty, and could only nod while feeling wronged, saying he knows.

But Zhou MuHui didn’t let him go, stayed pressed on his body, and looked at him through the shadows under the dim street lights.

“What did you call me just now.”

Zhou MuHui looked at him, and unexpectedly asked him.
