TRMLCM Chapter 86

“Do you love me, even if I’m not pure and kind, not perfect, do you still accept me?”

“I love you, even if you deceive me time and time again, I will always believe in you.”

Gold cannot be pure, and humans cannot be perfect.

You are a clumsy actor, and I am willing.

…

As he spoke, Cheng Yi felt that these words were too cheesy, so he stopped and shrugged his left shoulder, looking at Shen Chang’an’s red eyes. His dark and deep eyes were pure and clear.

A hint of slyness flashed in his dark eyes, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised as he smiled and said, “Mu An, do you need to lean on my shoulder?”

“The price is very cheap, a kiss can get you ten minutes.”

Shen Chang’an burst into laughter amidst his tears. The starlight filling his beautiful eyes flowed out a large, crystal-clear teardrop from the corner of his eye.

Cheng Yi subconsciously caught it directly with his palm. With a ‘plop,’ his palm became wet.

The touch was cold, but the smile in his eyes was very bright.

Seeing Cheng Yi’s roguish and unreliable appearance, Shen Chang’an’s pale cheeks flushed red and became slightly hot.

He felt a little embarrassed and annoyed in his heart, glared at Cheng Yi, and jokingly bargained, “A black-hearted merchant, a kiss is so cheap? It should be for half an hour.”

“The way you are, who would want to do business with you?”

Cheng Yi raised his eyebrows, looking at him narrowly with his dark eyes, without saying a word.

The look in his eyes was self-explanatory.

…

“Then let you experience twenty minutes first.”

Cheng Yi said generously, raising his shoulder and leaning towards Shen Chang’an’s neck.

Their heights were not much different. Cheng Yi was only slightly taller than Shen Chang’an. When Shen Chang’an nestled in his arms just now, his legs were bent and not straightened.

But now, Shen Chang’an got up and left his embrace, standing as straight as a pine tree, as if injected with endless confidence and courage, his starry eyes clear and bright.

His eyebrows curved, and without saying a word, he reached out and took Cheng Yi’s hand, walking straight to the prayer mat and kneeling down.

Cheng Yi’s dark eyes were stunned for a moment, but he did not resist and followed him, moved by his actions, kneeling down beside Shen Chang’an.

Cheng Yi turned his head to look at Shen Chang’an, who was looking ahead.

There were dark circles under his eyes, indicating several sleepless nights, but his eyes showed no fatigue, and his expression was full of seriousness.

…

“Grandma…”

Shen Chang’an knelt upright, his gentle and soft voice ringing softly in the room.

“I have someone I especially like. His name is Cheng Yi, and he is right beside me now.”

“It’s just that I haven’t found a suitable opportunity to tell you about this in time. It’s my fault, but I understood what you said that day.”

“I think you and Grandpa must already know, otherwise, why would you leave me such a last word…”

Thinking that he had someone to accompany him, so she resolutely abandoned him and followed Grandpa away.

As Shen Chang’an spoke, he fell silent again.

His eyelids drooped halfway, and even though he guessed the reason for his grandmother’s departure, the suppressed sadness and low emotions still surged back.

His only blood relative left him, and there was nothing he could do, but Shen Jiacheng appeared in front of his grandmother’s mourning hall.

He thought, this was the best gift to send Grandpa and Grandma for their reunion.

Seeing him fall silent, Cheng Yi’s dark eyes dimmed, and his heart stirred.

“Grandma, I am Cheng Yi, Mu An’s lover.”

A deep and gentle voice broke the gradually declining atmosphere.

Shen Chang’an turned his head and quietly looked at him, without interrupting, listening quietly to Cheng Yi’s self-report.

“We have been together for a long time. I’ve called you ‘Grandma’ so many times before, but only this time does it feel like we have a witness.”

As Cheng Yi spoke, the corners of his lips rose, and he smiled.

“Thank you for taking the trouble to raise Mu An safely, so that I have the honor of meeting such a wonderful person and making him my lover.”

He looked at the black and white photo in front of him, at the black and white portrait in the photo. His stern face had a somewhat beautiful smile. These words sounded a bit glib, but the affection in his eyes was real, and his expression was serious.

Once, Cheng Yi was young and frivolous and couldn’t understand why some people in this world would pour out their emotions to a photo, an object, or a pet.

He and He Zhou even complained together, didn’t the person involved think these behaviors looked stupid?

But now he has also become one of them.

Love me, love my dog. He would ignore his cleanliness because berber was raised by Shen Chang’an, pinching his nose to scoop poop for it every day. He would also complain aggrievedly when Shen Chang’an and berber cuddled together, and then raise his eyebrows triumphantly when berber was angry and meowing.

Of course, when Shen Chang’an was not around, they shook hands and made peace and got along fairly well.

Every day since returning to City S, he was in a long-distance relationship with a mobile phone, good morning, good afternoon, good night… He actively reported his itinerary, and He Zhou and the others had already plastered the words “love brain” on his forehead.

If his mind wandered for a moment, he would slowly think about what Mu An was doing at this time? Had he eaten? Has he gone to town to buy something delicious lately? How was his electric bike riding skills? Did he have the demeanor of his teaching?

He relied on video calls to relieve his lovesickness at night, and he already felt sweet just chatting simply during the day.

And sometimes, just looking at Shen Chang’an’s photos, countless thoughts and worries would come to his mind.

Maybe in those days when they hadn’t met, he had already started to care about what the weather was like today, whether it was drizzling or cloudy, windy or foggy.

…

Will Mu An livestream today?

I wasn’t there yesterday, did he win all the PKs he played?

Hmm… how should I coax the little fox to act cute today?

Why does he always go to see that old, dilapidated, almost withered tree during the day?

Alas, he has to look for me every time he wakes up, does he like me so much? I’m in a good mood today, let’s scare He Zhou and the others (smug).

Ahhhhhhh! So annoying! Does he like my money or does he like me?

I’ve applied medicine, but I’m in a bad mood and want Mu An to comfort me, well, He Zhou is my brother, so he’ll take the blame!

Never mind, the money is mine, if he likes my money, then isn’t that basically liking me? Otherwise, why doesn’t he go and like someone else’s money?

He really likes me.

I confessed on the phone today, I regret it a little, what should I do?

Mu An, don’t misunderstand, I just wanted to tell you in person.

Have we confirmed our relationship or not? Asking for advice, online waiting, very urgent, very urgent, very urgent…

Okay, it doesn’t count as confirming the relationship, but it’s okay, Mu An will be mine (go for it!)

Today…

So quiet, why is Mu An ignoring me?

Not even a good morning, did Mu An secretly stay up late last night without telling me?

emm… no reply

Phew, that’s good, false alarm, Mu An was busy going home and forgot to send it.

Really forgot? (suspicious)

Huh? Forgot to send it????

I’ll write it down in my notebook now (highlight)

I can see him tomorrow! (excited)
