    â—ŽIs he nice to you?â—Ž

    But Shen Lingjun didn’t feel any resistance. In the end, he concluded that their relationship was not deep enough and he could just continue to get along with each other.

    Alvin chased him with great fanfare, but when he actually confessed, he restrained himself a lot. Perhaps he could see that Shen Lingjun didn’t like being too showy, so he only brought a bouquet of flowers on the day of his confession.

    The flower looked familiar, and there seemed to be a small patch of it planted in the garden of the old house. Alvin was very close to him, leaning down to his ear and saying, “It’s the Manta rose, which means the place where dreams begin.”

    His names for Shen Lingjun have always been very disgusting, especially when their relationship was acquiesced to develop in a closer direction, they became more straightforward, “Sweetheart, the first time I saw you, I knew that no flower can be worthy of you. This flower only represents my feelings for you.”

    Shen Lingjun held the flower, gently caressed the petals twice with his fingers, lowered his eyes and said, “Is this the first time you see me?”

    Alvin smiled and said: “On the first day of school, you were buying water from the beverage machine downstairs in the dormitory, wearing a white T-shirt and light-colored jeans. I only saw your back at that time, and you really didn’t notice me.”

    He said with a slightly disappointed tone: “I followed you quietly for a while.”

    Shen Lingjun had been talking to Pan Siyun next to him that day, and he never noticed anyone behind him. Alvin followed him through the playground and around to the main road of the school. The sycamore branches on both sides were densely leafy, and the sunlight fell from the gaps between the leaves, and the wind danced lightly over the young man’s shoulders.

    He saw Shen Lingjun turning his face sideways and smiling at the person next to him. Everything in his memory was swaying lightly, and now he finally touched this hazy part. Alvin couldn’t help but lower his head. He couldn’t tell whether it was the fragrance of the flowers or the smell of Shen Lingjun’s body. In short, everything tempted him to kiss him.

    Shen Lingjun’s long eyelashes were half lowered, and he hid for a moment. In the end, Alvin’s lips only lightly touched his cheek. The moment they touched her, it still made his heart tremble.

    “Luo Mingyuan.” Shen Lingjun called his Chinese name and refused awkwardly: “It’s not possible yet. We have just confirmed our relationship.”

    Alvin didn’t know what he said. It seemed that the language system was a little confused. He finally switched back to Chinese and said, “Sorry, I’m a little too happy.”

    He hugged Shen Lingjun and couldn’t help but rub his head in his neck, like a large dog having fun. The slightly curly blond hair tickled Shen Lingjun.

    Shen Lingjun hugged the flower and did not hug him back. He just raised his head, his mind a little confused.

    He didn’t want to tell Liang Jian about his relationship so early.

    Somehow, he subconsciously felt that Liang Jian would not be very happy after knowing this.

    But since he had a boyfriend, he went home less often, and the time that Alvin gave Liang Ji’an naturally decreased significantly. Sometimes even when he came home on weekends, Alvin would ask him to watch a movie or go out to eat.

    Liang Jian looked at the route displayed on the locator. Shen Lingjun’s world was becoming more and more abundant. Of course he knew that Shen Lingjun was in love. He knew it earlier than anyone else.

    Although he restrained himself from letting people stare at Shen Lingjun all the time, the changes in the fixed route and Shen Lingjun’s recent state were enough for people to notice his abnormality.

    Liang Ji’an was curious when Shen Lingjun planned to confess this matter to him.

    But obviously he underestimated Shen Lingjun’s patience to avoid certain things, and Liang Ji’an quickly convinced himself that it was just his brother’s concern for his brother’s love life. Instead of waiting for him to keep covering it up, why didn’t he take the initiative to ask?

    It was getting late, and Alvin reluctantly waved goodbye to Shen Lingjun until he arrived at the door of his house. Shen Lingjun opened the door and was about to go upstairs to take a shower, but he first saw Liang Jian sitting on the sofa.

    “Brother?” Shen Lingjun suddenly became nervous, “Why are you sitting here motionless.”

    The lights were on in the living room, but Shen Lingjun still couldn’t see Liang Ji’an’s expression clearly. He stood there and didn’t dare to move, and tentatively called brother.

    Liang Ji’an asked: “Who sent you back? A friend?”

    The tone sounded normal. It didn’t sound like torture or anger. Shen Lingjun took two steps towards him, organized his words and said, “Well… he should be considered a boyfriend.”

    Without lying or covering up, Liang Ji’an got an expected answer. He smiled and said: “When did we date, why didn’t I tell my brother.”

    He was indeed smiling, but Shen Lingjun felt that there was no hint of being sincerely happy for him in that smile. On the contrary, there was even some gnashing of teeth in displeasure and irritability. Moreover, Liang Ji’an did not relax on the sofa as usual, but leaned forward with his hands on his knees, staring at him closely like a lion ready to hunt at any time.

    If Liang Ji’an wants to hide his emotions, he can completely prevent Shen Lingjun from noticing. Maybe he can also be sincerely happy for Shen Lingjun and take on the responsibility of an older brother to check the character of his boyfriend for him.

    But he didn’t want to.

    Long-term repression turned his emotions into lifeless icebergs under the deep sea. The sea was always calm and unrippled. During this period, Shen Lingjun’s alienation, closeness, fear and intentional or unintentional escape from him were like pebbles thrown into the sea from time to time. The falling splashes were large and small. It seemed that the sea was calm again after a while, but in fact, the iceberg underneath was full of holes.

    He originally thought that he could accept Shen Lingjun’s falling in love, and he had thought about it countless times. He thought that he just needed to accept it slowly, so that he could take back those feelings that should not occur.But now when Shen Lingjun admitted it in person, those words were like throwing a ton of bombs into the sea, causing a storm and washing away all his sanity.

    He couldn’t accept that Shen Lingjun was with someone else, let alone the fact that Shen Lingjun was leaving him. The excuse he initially used to deceive himself that at least I was the person closest to him began to falter. Everything was telling him that Shen Lingjun would not stay with him forever.

    The long silence made Shen Lingjun feel a little uneasy. He didn’t know what to say to break the silence. He looked around but still looked at Liang Ji’an with hope. He hoped that his brother would say something more, whether it was approval or objection.

    “Is he good to you?” Liang Ji’an took off his glasses. His eyebrows were high and his eyes often gave people a strong sense of oppression. But now it was even more unclear what he was thinking.

    Shen Lingjun thought for a while and then nodded, “He is pretty good.”
