In fact, when Lin Xu came to ask questions today, he asked in a rather obscure way, but Lin Xu's thoughts were never too hidden, so even though it was obscure, Cheng Ke could understand what he meant.
Jiang Yuduo's answer Cheng Ke was guessing. Based on Lin Xu's performance in front of him, such a question would definitely be asked first by Jiang Yuduo. If he could get an answer from Jiang Yuduo, Lin Xu would never ask him again.
The reason why Lin Xu came to ask him shows that Jiang Yuduo gave him a vague and ambiguous answer.
Bu Chengke slowly recovered after answering "no", and found that Jiang Yuduo's answer was a little imaginative.
Based on the impression that he didn't disgust Jiang Yuduo when he heard about the same color change before, it was because he regarded him as a friend. Jiang Yuduo should be shocked by Lin Xu's similar question and deny it directly without thinking about it, maybe he will. Some are unhappy, such as why she still thinks he is Cheng Ke's boyfriend when she is not a pretty little cutie.
But his answer was obviously not, not only not, but also left enough room for Lin Xu's imagination.
Cheng Ke had to refresh his judgment on Jiang Yuduo.
Jiang Yuduo's reaction to his answer "No" was also quite strange. He didn't breathe a sigh of relief, and he didn't scold Lin Xu for being an idiot. He really ran to ask, but... embarrassed.
Cheng Ke is not a sensitive person many times, especially in front of Jiang Yuduo, he often feels like a wooden man, but he is very sensitive to such ambiguous emotions.
After all, from the day he knew his sexuality, he had been in this atmosphere.
Even if he doesn't mind being known by anyone, it is impossible for everyone to be like him. He always encounters those obscure temptations and close proximity. Although he is slow and lazy to think about such emotions, he is more Many people are sensitive.
At least he is much more sensitive than Jiang Yuduo.
Jiang Yuduo, who is now shocked and embarrassed, probably still doesn't know what he said and why he said that.
"Whatever you want." Jiang Yuduo said after staring at him for a while.
"I've finished," Cheng Ke said, "but if you are not satisfied with my answer, I can revise it with Lin Xu."
"What to fix?" Jiang Yuduo asked.
"Tell him you are actually..." Cheng Ke glanced at the driver and lowered his voice, "My boyfriend."
Jiang Yuduo's eyes widened again.
"Do you need it?" Cheng Ke asked.
"Actually," Jiang Yuduo said with great difficulty and then lost his voice. He turned his head to look out the window, and after a long time he turned back and whispered in his ear, "I don't mean that, either. I just... want Lin Xu to stay away from you."
"Why?" Cheng Ke asked softly.
yeah why!
Jiang Yuduo bit his lip.
Because he was worried about Lin Xu, felt that Lin Xu had a purpose, and felt that Lin Xu still had doubts, but he couldn't let Cheng Ke know that he had to be a "normal person" in front of Cheng Ke.
He didn't know what kind of answer would appear normal. After all, for so many years, he had always spoken directly, and he didn't say anything if he didn't want to.
"I just don't like him very much." Jiang Yuduo finally chose a very naive answer in his own opinion.
"...Oh." Cheng Ke looked at him and asked again after a while, "No?"
"No," Jiang Yuduo said, "what else? I have this attitude towards people I don't like."
Cheng Ke smiled and didn't speak, and the smile didn't tell whether he was satisfied with his reason.
Jiang Yuduo has no experience in this area. He is so old and he is not so nervous about making up an excuse. He has never encountered anything that requires such experience.
"I wonder if he wants to chase you," Jiang Yuduo added after thinking about it, "I've known each other for a long time, and I haven't met you a few times..."
"Four times," Cheng Ke said, "count today."
"Yeah," Jiang Yuduo said, "it's too unreliable, let him... stop this idea."
"Well, it makes sense," Cheng Ke nodded. "Then let me tell him that, you are my boyfriend."
Cheng Ke didn't hold back his voice when he said this. The driver in front probably heard it, and tilted his head in surprise.
"Look at the road." Jiang Yuduo said in a calm voice to the back of the driver's head.
The driver's head straightened immediately and looked ahead.
Then Jiang Yuduo returned to his shocked mood, and turned his head suddenly to look at Cheng Ke.
But Cheng Ke had already turned away, leaning against the window glass to look out the window, his shock was lost, and he had to take it back.
This is just great.
Niubi.
Shengsheng got himself a boyfriend.
And what Cheng Ke was thinking... Cheng Ke usually looked careless and didn't care about anything, but the questions he asked that day were very accurate.
The car stopped at the entrance of the mall, Jiang Yuduo got out of the car first, then turned around and stretched out his hand.
"I can get down." Cheng Ke said as he moved towards the door.
Jiang Yuduo didn't say anything, grabbed his left hand and pulled him out of the car with a half drag.
"Fuck!" Cheng Ke was a little embarrassed when he was dragged and rolled, "Where are you pulling the goods?"
"The driver keeps watching us." Jiang Yuduo frowned.
"He can just watch it," Cheng Ke said. "You can't let people watch it."
"Uncomfortable." Jiang Yuduo said.
Cheng Ke sighed: "I said that a little loudly, but it's not a big deal, even if he thinks you're gay, so what, at the end of the day, he went back and told his friends that he pulled two gay people today, and turned his head to you. He doesn't remember what it looked like."
"Really." Jiang Yuduo looked at him.
"Look," Cheng Ke casually pointed to the crowd who came out of the mall, "that man with a bag, he's gay."
Jiang Yuduo glanced over there.
Cheng Ke raised his hand and pulled his chin to turn his face back: "Okay, dozens of numbers."
"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, ninety," Jiang Yuduo counted from one to ten inexplicably, "Why are you counting?"
"Now I ask you," Cheng Ke said, "what does that person look like?"
Jiang Yuduo did not speak.
"Don't you remember?" Cheng Ke said.
Jiang Yuduo looked at him, and after a few seconds he said, "Remember."
"... Fart!" Cheng Ke was speechless, "Just take a look and you remember a fart."
"People who have seen it half an eye can remember." Jiang Yuduo said.
"Blow it." Cheng Ke was very upset that Jiang Yuduo messed up his on-site teaching of Soul Machine Soup.
Jiang Yuduo suddenly grabbed his arm and walked back.
"Where to go?" Cheng Ke looked at the mall gate that was far away from him.
Jiang Yuduo didn't answer him, dragged him directly across the street, then walked forward for a while, and pointed forward: "It's him."
"What?" Cheng Ke didn't understand.
"The one you said was gay just now is him," Jiang Yuduo pointed to the man in front of him, "his nose is a little crooked, and he is crooked to the left. He may have fallen when he was a child..."
"Fuck you..." Cheng Ke stared at the back of the man in front of him, "Just look at the back of the head and you know his nose is crooked..."
"Hey!" Jiang Yuduo suddenly roared.
Cheng Ke was so frightened by him that he didn't wait until he regained his senses. Everyone around looked at him, and the man in front also turned his head.
you sir!
The nose is really crooked to the left!
Fuck it!
After Cheng Ke was surprised, he suddenly remembered that he had never been surrounded by people on the street for inexplicably yelling since he was a child.
"Walk, walk, walk!" he lowered his voice, "I've fucked you up!"
Jiang Yuduo turned around and walked back contentedly.
After taking two steps, Cheng Ke suddenly paused: "That person doesn't have a handbag! It's not that person!"
"Yes," Jiang Yuduo said, "there were four of them, and the handbag was given to another man, who took it to the side..."
Jiang Yuduo said while looking at a road next to him: "There is a parking lot over there, come with me..."
"No! No! No! No!" Cheng Ke hurriedly grabbed him and dragged him towards the mall, "Thank you for your performance, it's very exciting, I completely believe it now, and I don't doubt it at all."
"I also know what brand the bag is." Jiang Yuduo said.
"Shut up!" Cheng Ke said.
Jiang Yuduo immediately closed his mouth and stopped talking.
Cheng Ke's mind was full of dizziness, and he walked back to the door of the mall until he found out the reason why he let Jiang Yuduo see the man.
Every time Jiang Yuduo can use all kinds of magical brain circuits to make the topic difficult to follow...
"I just told you what that person meant," Cheng Ke sighed, "I'm not testing your observation ability."
"I know." Jiang Yuduo said.
"What do you know?" Cheng Ke squinted at him.
"You want to prove that the driver won't remember us after a while." Jiang Yuduo said.
"Yes," Cheng Ke breathed a sigh of relief, "a lot of things are like this, good things, bad things, painful things, embarrassing things, all things, in fact, only me can remember, others can't remember, no matter how big things are, big Most people don't remember anymore."
Jiang Yuduo stopped and turned to look at him: "Really."
"Almost," Cheng Ke said, "you watch the news on your mobile phone every day, so many news, the explosion of novelty, how long can you remember, last week I donated money to a child who was said to be sick in the news, but now I I don't remember the name of that kid anymore."
"There are many people like you, right?" Jiang Yuduo said.
"A lot." Cheng Ke said.
"Yeah," Jiang Yuduo looked around the crowd, "there are so many people, whether it's good or bad, what pain did you have in the past, what happened now, will it get better in the future? No one will know about it except yourself, right?"
"It's a bit extreme for you to say that..." Cheng Ke felt that there was some negativity in what he said, and when he wanted to discuss it again, Jiang Yuduo had already turned around and walked over to the elevator.
"What do you want to buy?" Jiang Yuduo turned around and asked.
"I don't know," Cheng Ke said, "wine, ginseng gift box or something."
"Ginseng?" Jiang Yuduo was stunned, "If you're going to spend so much money, you might as well give Chen Qing a red envelope, or she'll have to take it back after you buy it, and if you can't get it back, just give it to Chen Qing. Get someone from the commissary to sell it…”
"What is this operation?" Cheng Ke was very surprised.
"The operation of realizing cash during the Chinese New Year," Jiang Yuduo said, "Lu Qian also received these things, and then sold them. If you really send such things, maybe Chen Qing's mother will ask me to help sell it."
Cheng Ke thought it was funny, and laughed for a long time: "I really didn't expect this."
"Your family collects a bunch of things for the New Year, what should you do with the food you can't use?" Jiang Yuduo asked.
"Some of them will be thrown away by my mother, and some of my aunts will give them to my aunts if they like them." Cheng Ke said.
"Auntie may also sell it." Jiang Yuduo said.
"... Get out." Cheng Ke laughed again.
"The world is fun, isn't it?" Jiang Yuduo clicked his tongue, "Little Elf."
"Roll off." Cheng Ke turned around and got into the elevator.
It's actually not polite to give a red envelope directly. The other party is an elder who has never met. Even if he puts a red envelope, he doesn't know how big the fortress is. Cheng Ke still thinks it's appropriate to buy something.
"Then let me give you an idea," Jiang Yuduo said, "buy a set of such cute hats, scarves and gloves for cats, dogs, and bears."
"What?" Cheng Ke looked at him.
"Chen Qing's mother likes it very much. He wanted to buy it before, but his father wouldn't let it." Jiang Yuduo said.
"No, no one has to let it go. How old are you?" Cheng Ke said.
"It's good to be happy," Jiang Yuduo said. "There are so many things you want and can't get, so just buy what you want and get."
Cheng Ke looked at him and felt that what he said was very reasonable.
"Okay, just buy a three-piece suit." Cheng Ke nodded.
When I got to Chen Qing's house, I didn't know who was setting off firecrackers. They hung from the sixth floor to the first floor, and they were dizzy from the sky to the ground.
Chen Qing ran out of the corridor and ran to Cheng Ke before he could see who he was.
"Let's go," Chen Qingchong waved to them, "I've been lying on the windowsill watching, and when you get off, I'll get off."
"It's so grand." Cheng Ke said.
"That's for sure," Chen Qing said with a smile. "Anyway, this is the first time my third brother has brought someone to my house. I'm very excited. I always feel like someone's daughter-in-law sees her in-laws..."
"Fuck you!" Jiang Yuduo slapped him on the back, "I miss my elders!"
Cheng Ke felt that Jiang Yuduo's focus was probably getting crooked.
"No," Chen Qing rubbed his arms. "Look at the two of you yourself. You are both wearing different clothes. When I got out of the car, I was stunned. If you two really say that you are a young couple meeting your parents..."
"Go away!" Jiang Yuduo roared, and it was estimated that this time the focus was grasped, "Go upstairs!"
Chen Qing scurried upstairs, and Jiang Yuduo turned his head: "His house is on the seventh floor, there is no elevator, are you okay?"
"... What, I have a problem, do you carry me up?" Cheng Ke asked.
"I just asked." Jiang Yuduo turned around and walked up.
Cheng Ke followed behind him, wanting to laugh a little.
Chen Qing's parents are very enthusiastic, they should be a combination of strict father and mother type, but Chen's father's strict father is obviously not very strict, and he scolded Chen Qing with his head and face when he entered the door, saying that he did not close the door when he went downstairs, and scolded him. After a minute, he turned around and saw Jiang Yuduo and Cheng Ke who were still standing at the door.
"Hey! Come in! What are you doing standing there!" Dad Chen waved quickly.
"Stand there watching you swear." Mother Chen said.
"You don't need to watch the third child. How many times have you watched it?" Dad Chen said.
"My friend, Cheng Ke." Jiang Yu entered the door and introduced Cheng Ke behind him.
"Happy Chinese New Year, uncle and aunt." Cheng Ke greeted.
"Happy Chinese New Year," said Mother Chen, "The third friend is not an ordinary person at first glance. Didn't they play with Qing'er?"
"Let's play together, why can't we play together?" Chen Qing was very unconvinced, "Maybe we wouldn't be happy to play with him?"
Cheng Ke smiled.
This is the first time that Cheng Ke has celebrated Lantern Festival outside his own home and relatives' homes, but he has lived a very unique whole year, so there is nothing to sigh about today, it should be considered good, at least It was at home, someone was busy with a table of dishes in the kitchen, and they could sit at the table with a group of people to eat and drink.
Even if he wasn't particularly comfortable with the atmosphere of Chen Qing's house, he still felt pretty good.
Chen's father is a rude person, Jiang Yuduo is right, it's really vulgar. He opens and closes his mouth with all kinds of organs and explicit jokes. Chen's mother is similar, but his temper is much better, especially after receiving Cheng Ke. After giving the hat, scarf and gloves, I was happy all night.
"Chen Qing said you are a young master," Dad Chen stretched out his glass, "I look the same, look at us, you are so eye-catching, you are not from us at first glance."
Cheng Ke picked up the cup, smiled and said nothing.
"My son probably stepped on shit to know a young master like you," Dad Chen tapped on his cup, "This shit..."
Chen Qing cleared his throat next to him.
"Why do you want to eat?" Dad Chen turned to stare at him.
"What about dinner, you said this," Chen Qing said, "you let people accumulate... Brother Ke, will you still eat?"
"It's all over! It's called the end of the drink! Understand!" Dad Chen continued to stare at him.
"Uncle and aunt are in good health." Cheng Ke lightly knocked on his glass with a smile, raised his head and drank the wine.
Dad Chen also raised his head and drank the wine.
After the meal, Jiang Yuduo didn't stay at Chen Qing's house much. His house was going to entertain Mayou at night. As soon as the dinner table was cleared, Chen's mother put the mahjong table on.
"Let's go," Jiang Yuduo said, "to see the lights."
"I'll go too." Chen Qing stood up immediately.
"You help out," said Mother Chen, "running errands or something, what kind of lamp do you look at? You haven't seen it twice since you were a child. There is a lamp there, so you can hold it and look at it."
"Fuck." Chen Qing sat down again depressed.
"Look at my circle of friends," Cheng Ke said, "I'll post it after I take a picture of the light."
"Okay, let's go drive, I'm sure you won't be able to drive now," Chen Qing threw the key over, "record a little video, I heard that this year's scale is bigger than previous years."
"Okay." Cheng Ke nodded.
After coming out of Chen Qing's house and returning to the smoke-filled street with the sound of gunfire, Cheng Ke breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the key in his hand: "What car is this today?"
"Chen Qing's own car." Jiang Yuduo said.
"Chen Qing still has a car?" Cheng Ke was shocked, and quickly looked at the car key in his hand, "Will it be a battery car?"
"It's just a two-door car that can be used for both gas and electricity," Jiang Yuduo said. "It's less than 40,000 yuan. His mother bought it for him."
"Oh." Cheng Ke tried pressing the remote control, and a car called five meters away from them. After he walked over to see the car, he was amused, "Can we fit in this car?"
"Yes, it's quite big inside," Jiang Yuduo said, "Chen Qing wants to follow, and it can be stuffed in the trunk."
"And the trunk?" Cheng Ke immediately turned to the back of the car and tried to drive it, but it actually opened. There was a gap of about 20 centimeters behind the two seats. "Is this the trunk?"
"Yes." Jiang Yuduo nodded, took off his coat, rolled it up, and put it in the gap, "Look, you can still put clothes."
Cheng Ke looked at his clothes and couldn't hold back his joy. He leaned on the back of the car and smiled: "Hey, it's really... come on, help me take off my clothes, and I'll put... "
After saying this, he felt a little awkward, but in general, he was the only one who would feel awkward. He glanced at Jiang Yuduo.
Jiang Yuduo didn't speak, he helped him take off his coat, rolled it up and put it in the trunk.
At first glance, Cheng Ke knew that he wasn't the only one who felt something was wrong.
Jiang Yuduo's thinking of being a straight man has probably changed a bit because of that boyfriend. A sentence that he usually doesn't care about at all can make him embarrassed now.
Cheng Ke sighed, opened the door, got in, and sat in the passenger seat.
Tonight, there is a lantern show over the square. The opening is a firework show. When they arrived in a two-door car with a trunk, the firework show had already started. From a distance, they could see the high-rise buildings rising into the sky and exploding. blossoms of golden flowers.
"Look here for a while? There's a traffic jam ahead right now," Cheng Ke said. "It seems to be a good angle now."
"You can see more clearly at the intersection ahead," Jiang Yuduo drove the car forward, stopped after crossing the street, "This is it."
"Yeah." Cheng Ke looked out from the car window. From this angle, he could see the whole thing, and he could also see the small fireworks below.
Chen Qing's car showed an absolute advantage at this time. Jiang Yuduo squeezed the car into the middle of the two cars on the road.
"How." He happily lit a cigarette, opened the window halfway, and leaned back in the seat.
"Comfortable." Cheng Ke also lit a cigarette.
"Do you like watching fireworks?" Jiang Yuduo asked.
"I like it very much," Cheng Ke said, "but I like to look at solid colors, silver, gold, especially textured."
"I like everything," Jiang Yuduo said. "When I saw it for the first time, I was stunned. There are such beautiful things, so bright that I can't see the dark sky clearly."
"When was the first time you saw fireworks?" Cheng Ke asked with a smile.
"Get out of my parents' house," Jiang Yuduo said. "Someone took us to the game. We happened to be passing by. There was a building on the roof, and someone was setting off fireworks, just a few."
Cheng Ke's smile froze, and after taking a breath, he asked, "What game?"
Jiang Yuduo didn't speak, and there was no sign of a sudden outbreak. He looked very calm, as if he was reminiscing.
After a while, he turned his face and looked at Cheng Ke: "Do you know Aoying?"
