"Jiang Zhong is back," the aunt first replied with a smile, "I just asked about you."
Jiang Zhong parked the suitcase at the stairs, walked over and sat on the single sofa.
It was only when I got closer that I saw that my aunt's complexion was not very good, and she forced a smile.
Jiang Zhong didn't want to directly inquire about the affairs of the elders, so he pretended not to find out, and said with a smile, "I went out to play for a while."
"Your mother told me that she went on a trip with her girlfriend," said the aunt.
Jiang Zhong smiled when he heard the words, although what his mother said was not quite right, he couldn't refute it now.
"Hey," the aunt suddenly sighed deeply, then turned her head and said to Zheng Yinqiu, "It would be nice to find a girlfriend like this, I have to..."
Jiang Zhong made a "thump" in his heart for no reason, as if he was about to hear some secret.
Zheng Yinqiu patted the back of the aunt's hand lightly, comforting her in a low voice.
Before Jiang Zhong heard what happened, Zheng Yinqiu said to him again: "Jiang Zhong, you go up and change your clothes and tidy up, and come down later for dinner."
Jiang nodded emphatically, returned to the stairs, picked up his suitcase and went upstairs.
After taking a shower and changing into light home clothes, Jiang Zhong opened the suitcase and took out the things inside and sorted them out.
He and Xi Qin stayed outside for nearly half a month, bought a lot of gadgets, some of which were inconvenient to bring back to Xi Qin's residence in advance, and only a small part of what he brought back in his suitcase , but still stuffed the small suitcase full.
About halfway through packing, Jiang Zhong took a look at the time on his phone, and sent a message to Xi Qin with a smile.
Jiang Zhong: Are you home? Boyfriend
Before receiving Xi Qin's reply, the bedroom door was knocked a few times first.
Jiang Zhong put his phone on the bed and got up to open the door. Standing outside was his cousin, Bai Yuelang.
"Brother Jiang Zhong."
"Yueyue," Jiang Zhong asked doubtfully, "what's the matter?"
"It's okay." Bai Yuelang smiled shyly, "My mother and auntie are cooking, they asked me to come up and talk to you, can you let me in?"
"It's convenient," Jiang Zhong opened the door completely, "Come in, it's a bit messy, I'm cleaning it up."
Bai Yuelang entered the bedroom and sat down on the small sofa in an orderly manner.
"I remember you are in your third year of high school, right?" Jiang Zhong went back to the suitcase and continued to fiddle with those gadgets.
"Well," Bai Yuelang nodded, "the college entrance examination is about four months away."
"Just treat it like a normal exam," Jiang Zhong said, "Don't stress."
Bai Yuelang nodded again.
The phone on the bed suddenly rang twice, and Jiang Zhong reached out to take it.
Xi Qin: just arrived
Xi Qin: Boyfriend
Jiang Zhong: Okay, boyfriend
Xi Qin: Miss you
Jiang Zhong smiled. They had only been separated for more than an hour.
Jiang Zhong: I miss you too
Xi Qin: Is it convenient to answer the phone
Jiang Zhong: I'm afraid it's inconvenient, my sister is next to me
"Is it my sister-in-law?"
"Ah?" Jiang Zhong looked up at Bai Yuelang blankly.
"Are you sending messages to my sister-in-law?" Bai Yuelang asked, "I heard from my sister-in-law that you had a girlfriend not long ago."
"Little sister-in-law..." Jiang Zhong savored the title, and said with a suppressed smile, "Yes, that's him."
Xi Qin: Your sister
Jiang Zhong: My cousin
Jiang Zhong: I feel like you are scolding me
"My mother is really too," Jiang Zhong pretended to blame, "say everything."
"Auntie didn't do it on purpose," Bai Yuelang explained, "It was my mother who told Auntie about my brother and asked about you."
"Brother Xuyang?" Jiang Zhong asked, "What happened to him?"
"My brother..." Bai Yuelang lowered his eyes, "he found a boyfriend."
Jiang Zhong: "!!!"
Xi Qin: Then you are busy first, call me at your convenience
Jiang Zhong was so shocked that he forgot to return to Xi Qin, and threw his phone directly on the bed: "Why?"
Bai Yuelang's elder brother, Bai Xuyang, is three years older than Jiang, and has graduated from university for more than half a year.
Jiang Zhong would see him several times a year, but he never realized that Bai Xuyang also liked men.
Thinking of this, Jiang Zhong suddenly wanted to laugh, obviously he was gay, but every time he heard that someone he knew was like him, he would be very surprised.
It was when I knew Xi Qin liked boys before, and now I heard that his cousin has a boyfriend.
"Do you think it's weird too?" Bai Yuelang said with downcast eyes, "My parents couldn't accept it, they kept my brother locked up at home for many days."
"No, I just didn't expect it." Jiang Zhong said.
"My mother came here this time just to ask my aunt to help talk about my brother," Bai Yuelang's voice suddenly choked up, "Brother Jiang Zhong, can you help my brother? He..."
Jiang Zhong quickly took a tissue and stuffed it into Bai Yuelang's hand.
"My brother hasn't eaten properly for a few days," Bai Yuelang sniffed, "My parents think I'm a child and don't listen to what I say."
"Don't cry yet," Jiang Zhong said, "I will try my best, so please tell me in detail what's going on first?"
So Bai Yuelang told Jiang Zhong everything she knew with red eyes.
The brothers and sisters of the Bai family have been well-behaved since they were young, especially Bai Xuyang, who can't find any faults in learning or in dealing with people.
The rebellious appearance of other boys in adolescence was not reflected in Bai Xuyang at all. He studied quietly in junior and senior high schools, did not fall in love early or cause trouble, and after graduating from high school, he was admitted to a higher education institution as he wished.
After entering university, Bai Xuyang did not relax. Every year, he won a national scholarship for his outstanding professional performance and extracurricular practical activities.
In his senior year, Bai Xuyang obtained the college's postgraduate qualification, but he did not choose to continue his studies. Instead, he started looking for a job and an internship in his senior year. After graduation, he successfully entered a well-known company to work.
Jiang Zhong's aunt and uncle have always been very proud of their son, but just a few days ago, a scene that the aunt saw by chance shocked her deeply.
The city where Bai Xuyang works is in his hometown, but Bai Xuyang didn't live at home after work, but rented a house outside by himself. 33 Novel Network
That day, Jiang Zhong's aunt received a special product from a friend, and gave a copy to Bai Xuyang.
Because it was not a working day, the aunt did not tell Bai Xuyang in advance that she was going to go there. She did not expect to see Bai Xuyang talking and laughing with a man downstairs in the community.
Since it was in a public environment, Bai Xuyang and that man didn't have any very intimate behaviors, but the interaction between the two of them was very familiar and their relationship was very unusual.
My aunt had never seen Bai Xuyang who looked like that before, so many speculations emerged in her heart.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that there was something wrong, so the aunt went home calmly, and called Bai Xuyang back home with a phone call.
That night, under the pressure of his aunt and uncle, Bai Xuyang finally told the truth. It turned out that he and that man had been secretly dating for several years!
The uncle was so angry that he kicked Bai Xuyang on the spot, then confiscated Bai Xuyang's mobile phone, locked him in the room where he used to live, and told Bai Xuyang to let him out whenever he separated from that man.
But how could Bai Xuyang be willing, he didn't even want to lie to his aunt and uncle, he was locked up for a few days, the food didn't taste good, and he stayed in bed all day.
He is completely different from him when he was a student.
Bai Yuelang only found out about this when she came home from vacation two days ago. She was in the critical period of her third year of high school. Jiang Zhong's aunt and uncle originally wanted to hide it from her, fearing that it would affect her studies, but she was not a fool. Just understand the cause and effect.
But what's the use of her knowing, her parents just treat her as a child and don't listen to her at all.
"That's it," Bai Yuelang choked up, "My brother has been very sensible since he was a child, I believe he knows what he is doing."
"Well," Jiang nodded emphatically. Although Jiang's father and Jiang's mother had never compared him with "other people's children", he knew that Jiang's father and Jiang's mother also thought that Bai Xuyang was very well-behaved. "I also believe it."
"Brother Jiang Chong," Bai Yuelang asked hesitantly, "Do you discriminate against homosexuals?"
"Of course not," Jiang Zhong said immediately, "Every sexual orientation is worthy of respect."
He said this not because he is also gay, Jiang Zhong really thinks that love should not be divided into homosexuals, heterosexuals or bisexuals.
Even if he likes girls, he still says that now.
"Then can you go to my house with us tomorrow?" Bai Yuelang looked at Jiang Zhong expectantly, "Go and say something nice to my brother."
Before Jiang Zhong could speak, Bai Yuelang hurriedly added: "Auntie is going too, so you should just be with Auntie."
"Okay," Jiang Zhong gently rubbed Bai Yuelang's hair, "I will go, don't worry, brother Xuyang will be fine."
