037. Confession at the Tomb Sweeping

The next morning, Wei Yuhuan drove Xie Xiaojiang to the cemetery on the outskirts of the town. The two bought fruits, incense cakes, candles, and twice as much paper money as usual.

But when they were almost at the entrance of the cemetery, Xie Xiaojiang changed his mind again.

He thought, Wei Yuhuan is a man, what's the big deal? The old man is so conservative, he probably never heard the word homosexuality in his life. This is such a big stimulus, it would be bad if he really gets angry.

Besides, there was no guarantee that who would be with whom for the rest of their lives. Li Xiuya's words to Xie Xiaojiang before she left made him somewhat worried. Indeed, nothing in this world was absolute. Xie Xiaojiang was just afraid that Wei Yuhuan was just temporarily confused.

"No, no, you'd better not go up." Xie Xiaojiang said after calming down.

"What's wrong again?" Wei Yuhuan asked unhappily.

Xie Xiaojiang lowered his head and pointed at his fingers: "I think this is still too abrupt. How about I talk to grandpa and grandma first and tell them that I'm with you, and then I'll take you up next time."

Wei Yuhuan: “…” There is so much psychological drama involved just sweeping a grave!

Xie Xiaojiang looked at him eagerly: "Don't be angry, just wait for me in the car, I will be down in about half an hour, okay?"

What could Wei Yuhuan do to him? He could not resist the cute look of Xie Xiaojiang when he begged him.

Xie Xiaojiang went up with paper money and offerings. Wei Yuhuan leaned against the car and smoked a cigarette. Thinking about it, it was not right. Half of the paper money was bought by himself. People were at the door of the "home", so why not go in and say hello? Besides, they said that Xie Xiaojiang was his person in this life. His grandparents would know sooner or later. It was not Wei Yuhuan's style to be timid!

Wei Yuhuan threw away his cigarette butt and followed decisively. The cemetery was built in rows very neatly, and he could see Xie Xiaojiang's figure at a glance.

But Xie Xiaojiang had his back to the ground and didn't see Wei Yuhuan coming up. He respectfully lit incense, placed offerings, knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times, saying, "Grandpa and grandma, I'm here to see you."

After a simple greeting, Xie Xiaojiang squatted on the ground and began to tell the old man about his sister's recent situation. Xie Xiaoxi had been here during the Qingming Festival and did not come with them today.

After talking for a while, Xie Xiaojiang finally plucked up the courage to mention Wei Yuhuan, but he didn't know where to start. When he came last year, he didn't dare to talk about Wei Yuhuan pursuing him. He only said that he met a good boss.

Xie Xiaojiang was silent for a long time before he said, "Grandpa and grandma, I'm sorry... I'm a mb."

Just at this moment Wei Yuhuan tiptoed closer and almost vomited blood when he heard these words!

—mb? This little bastard thinks he is a mb

Wei Yuhuan stared at Xie Xiaojiang's back and almost exploded on the spot!

Just as he was about to step forward to question him, Xie Xiaojiang suddenly said, "But he treated me very well. He bought me clothes, took me to eat delicious food, gave me a house to live in, gave me plenty of money to spend, and paid for my studies... I know you definitely can't understand. No matter who I tell this to, few people can understand. When others know about it, they will laugh at me and look down on me. I also know that it is wrong to get something for nothing. You should fight for what you want. He has given me so much, and I feel I can't bear it... But, grandpa and grandma, I can't live without him. I love him." As Xie Xiaojiang spoke, he almost choked up.

Wei Yuhuan's emotions were also greatly shaken, with waves of anger, joy, and pity. It was as if his heart was held in Xie Xiaojiang's hands, allowing him to manipulate it.

"He is not only my benefactor, but also my lover. He is like an older brother to me, an elder who loves and cares for me." Xie Xiaojiang wiped his eyes, took a deep breath, calmed down, and said, "Grandpa and grandma, I am in college now. It is a good university with good professors and a good library. I also made a good friend..."

Xie Xiaojiang, who only reported good news but not bad news, did not mention those unhappy things to his grandparents. He paused, then turned back and said, "Even if he doesn't love me anymore one day, I will repay him. I will work hard to become a promising person. After all, the knowledge I have learned cannot be taken away by anyone. It is the foundation of my life."

Yes, he is a man and it is impossible for him to rely on another man for his whole life. If Wei Yuhuan is willing to pamper and love him forever, it is his blessing. If not, then the time spent with Wei Yuhuan is also the greatest luck that will change his life and destiny.

He thought that if Wei Yuhuan abandoned him, he would be very painful, but he would not feel resentment. Because love is something that cannot be forced. Li Xiuya likes Wei Yuhuan so much, but Wei Yuhuan still doesn't like him.

On the contrary, he will still be grateful, after all, this man treated him so well when he was with him. Instead of worrying about gains and losses, it is better to strive for it when you have it, cherish it, give it your all, do your best, and leave it to fate.

Therefore, Xie Xiaojiang felt that he would not end up like Li Xiuya.

Thinking of this, Xie Xiaojiang smiled hopefully again. He stood up and said, "Grandpa and grandma, I am very happy now, don't worry. If there is a chance next year or next year, I will bring him to see you."

As he spoke, a familiar breath mixed with cold air came from behind him, and in an instant, Xie Xiaojiang was hugged by someone!

"No need to wait until next year," Wei Yuhuan hugged him tightly and whispered in his ear, "I'm here now."

Every time Wei Yuhuan felt that he loved this person very much, the other person always had the ability to make him love him a little more, as if there was no limit.

Xie Xiaojiang's expression froze, his nerves tensed and relaxed, and he looked a little dumbfounded: "You..."

Wei Yuhuan interrupted him and said, "Xie Xiaojiang, I love you too. I swear in front of your grandparents that I will always treat you well, and from now on, I will only love you."

He had been searching for this rare treasure for more than ten years and had never seen anything better. How could he bear to let it go

The confession came so suddenly that Xie Xiaojiang was a little confused. The words that were just interrupted were still stuck in his throat. His face was red, and he finally managed to say: "Why are you eavesdropping..."

Wei Yuhuan smiled and explained gently: "Xie Xiaojiang, I have never treated you as a mb. At the beginning, maybe I thought you were just cute and that you were very special, but as we got to know each other, got along with each other, and fell in love, I was attracted by your personality and inner qualities. You have many advantages, of course, but you also have shortcomings, but your shortcomings are also part of what attracts me to you... It is you who conquered me, Xie Xiaojiang, don't doubt, don't be uneasy, just believe that I love you, okay?"

Xie Xiaojiang's heart was pounding, feeling sweet and shy. He noticed Wei Yuhuan coming over to kiss his ears, so he quickly used his elbow to push him away and said awkwardly, "Don't touch me here. The old ancestor would be embarrassed to see me..."

Wei Yuhuan chuckled, bowed solemnly to Xie Xiaojiang's grandparents, lit three incense sticks, and then took him back.

When driving back to the town center, Wei Yuhuan recalled the time when Xie Xiaojiang described him as "mb", and he was upset. It turned out that the violent incident caused such a big psychological shadow to this little guy. He was afraid that Xie Xiaojiang still had some grudges or misunderstandings, so he repeatedly explained the difference between their relationship and the relationship of keeping a mistress, and he spoke until his mouth was dry, but Xie Xiaojiang just kept saying "hmm hmm hmm", and he didn't know if he listened or not.

Xie Xiaojiang smiled foolishly unconsciously, still immersed in the great happiness brought to him by Wei Yuhuan's confession. The only bit of uneasiness in his heart was completely washed away by the words just now.

In fact, it doesn't really matter whether it's mb or not, it's just a name, Xie Xiaojiang thought it was a good idea to start with this to be honest with grandpa and grandma. It was Wei Yuhuan who was too serious, when the two of them were crazy in bed, they screamed much more exaggeratedly, what with the little slut and the big dog, it was simply unbearable to listen to.

People with lofty ambitions always have a life as fragile as paper, but Xie Xiaojiang is a mud crab covered in mud. He sees himself as lower than dust, and even if he is stepped into a mud pit, he can dig a hole deep down and continue to live - this is the difference between him and Cong Yuan, and the difference between him and Li Xiuya.

While driving, Xie Xiaojiang suddenly exclaimed "Ah", stood up and looked out the window.

"What's wrong?" Wei Yuhuan turned his head and asked.

"Stop the car, stop the car. I think I saw my enemy!" Xie Xiaojiang said, slapping his thigh.

The little fellow who had such a naive look on his face just now now looks at the mouse eagerly, just like a cat in its sleep that suddenly becomes alert when it sees a mouse.

Wei Yuhuan parked the car aside and asked with a frown, "What enemy?"

Xie Xiaojiang unbuckled his seat belt, opened the car door, pointed at the slightly hunched man in gray not far away and said, "That's him! The fellow villager who cheated me out of money!"

Wei Yuhuan's face darkened and he got out of the car and chased after him.

The man turned around when he heard the noise and saw the ferocious Xie Xiaojiang. Feeling guilty, he ran away! But there was a girl following him, who he didn't know if she was his lover or a relative. She asked, "Wang Daxiang? What's going on?"

While Wang Daxiang was stunned, he was grabbed by Xie Xiaojiang who rushed up quickly, and the two quickly twisted into a ball. Wei Yuhuan was worried that Xie Xiaojiang would suffer a loss, so he rushed forward to intervene. It was two against one, and Wei Yuhuan had practiced before, so Wang Daxiang was no match at all. After a while, he was pinned to the ground and begged for mercy: "Stop, stop!"

The girl next to them also screamed and tried to pull them apart: "What's wrong with you! Why are you hitting me right here? I'm going to call the police!"

Wang Daxiang said weakly: "Xie Xiaojiang, I will return your money, I will return you..."

Wei Yuhuan glanced at the woman and said, "Why are you yelling? Did you hear me? This person owes my brother money."

The woman asked Wang Daxiang in disbelief: "You owe someone money? Didn't you say you have over 300,000 yuan in savings?"

Sure enough, he is lying everywhere again! Xie Xiaojiang glared at him with gritted teeth and asked loudly: "Wang Daxiang! I trusted you so much at the beginning! I never hurt you! Why did you lie to me!"
