On the evening of New Year's Eve, Lin You's aunt and uncle gathered at her house for a New Year's Eve dinner as usual.
Although my uncle forcibly pulled himself together, after two bottles of white wine went down on the dining table, he couldn't bear it anymore and began to tell about the misfortune of the family.
"... Homosexuality is mental illness! They are all brainwashed by foreigners' human rights and freedom. If you want me to say, they should be locked up so as not to harm others! What good intentions can those foreigners have? She is not clear!"
"Yes, it's because those foreigners are not good." Father Lin accompanied him at the table, echoing his uncle's words.
Oh, it turns out that my sister's partner is a foreigner.
Lin You was eating melon seeds and watching the Spring Festival Gala in the living room. Sitting next to her were Lin's mother and auntie.
"That woman is still a singer. Didn't she sell singing before? What kind of good can such a person be? She made her mother mad because of such a woman. She really wants to piss me off! Yuzu, your sister and you Good relationship, you also talk about her!"
"what?"
Lin You on the sidelines was suddenly cueed and paused. She didn't want to ruin the family atmosphere during the New Year's Eve, but she didn't want to smooth things over as usual in this matter.
Finally she smiled and said, "Sister, she also has her own ideas, and being with the same sex is not doing something harmful."
The uncle obviously couldn't listen to any objections, so he raised his voice and reprimanded her loudly: "Why isn't it against the law? It is common sense for men and women to attract each other and reproduce offspring, and follow the laws of nature! Isn't same-sex being together a psychopath..."
Being pointed at the nose and scolded all the time, no matter how good-tempered he is, he will be unhappy.
Lin You smiled: "Humans are not animals in estrus."
When she doesn't want to talk, she can go to the construction site to get rich. Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Father Lin stopped his uncle: "Forget it, forget it, the child is not sensible, so don't argue with her. Youzi, don't say a few words!"
Knowing daughter Mo Ruomu, Lin Mu, who softly comforted her aunt, glanced at Lin You.
After her uncle and aunt left, Lin You helped clean up the mess at home. Mother Lin asked her, "Why did you talk to your uncle like that just now?"
Lin You asked back: "Why did I say something? Then what he said is wrong, I can't refute it yet."
Mother Lin still didn't know her daughter's personality. She frowned slightly: "Lin You, you've been really out of sorts recently. Tell me the truth, what did you not tell me?"
Lin You stopped washing the dishes.
Cold water poured from the faucet, and it was a bit stinging on a winter night.
"Mom, if..." Lin You pursed her lips, "If I also had a girlfriend, you wouldn't hit me, would you?"
…
In the afternoon of the first day of the new year, Xiao Xiao received a call from Lin You in the laboratory.
There was wind and occasional car horns on the other end of the phone. It should be on the street. Lin You's voice was a little bit aggrieved: "Where are you?"
Xiao Xiao was slightly startled: "In the laboratory. Yuzu, what's wrong?"
Lin You said, "I'm at the gate of your school, and the guard won't let me in."
at this time
Xiao Xiao realized that something might have happened, she said to Lin You: "I'll come here now."
As expected, Lin You stood at the gate of the school without a suitcase, so she stood in the cold wind with a backpack on her back and looked down at her phone. The lower half of her face was buried in the scarf, Xiao Xiao couldn't see her expression, but her intuition would not be very good.
As she got closer, Lin You raised her head, Xiao Xiao saw her red eyes, and was hugged.
Xiao Xiao also hugged her back, and patted her on the back lightly: "Yuzi? What happened?"
Lin You didn't speak for a long time, and rubbed against her neck.
Xiao Xiao felt the cool tears wet her skin, and then heard Lin You's muffled voice: "I told my family about us, and we had a quarrel, and my mother told me to get out. Then I'll just... get out Well."
Xiao Xiao thought for a while: "Have you eaten yet?"
Lin You: "...Nope."
He didn't eat from morning to noon, and Lin You didn't feel hungry until Xiao Xiao mentioned it.
Xiao Xiao took her to a nearby small restaurant that was still open to eat a bowl of noodles. With Xiao Xiao's company to fill her stomach, Lin You calmed down a little.
But when the two of them walked down the street hand in hand, when Xiao Xiao put her cool hand into his pocket, Lin You wanted to cry for some reason. After she met Xiao Xiao, she became a crybaby, which is not acceptable.
Lin You sniffed and acted coquettishly with Xiao Xiao: "I'm tired from walking."
Xiao Xiao pondered, and proposed expectantly: "Shall I carry you?"
Lin You: "Well, that's not necessary... Let's sit down and have a rest."
Xiao Xiao looked a little disappointed.
They sat down on the bench by the roadside, Lin You leaned on Xiao Xiao's body, and whispered, "I'm sorry."
Xiao Xiao immediately became nervous: "Why did Yuzi apologize?"
Hearing the anxiety in her tone, Lin You couldn't help laughing through tears, raised her head and kissed her: "I won't leave you. It's just... I was too impulsive about this matter, so I didn't handle it well. It's not good for you either."
Xiao Xiao breathed a sigh of relief: "As long as I'm with Yuzu."
"Well... me too." Lin You said softly, "As long as we are together, I am not afraid of anything."
The school hasn't started yet, Lin You temporarily lives here with Xiao Xiao, during the winter vacation Xiao Xiao is relatively free and spends a lot of time with her.
However, Lin You didn't spend all her time with Xiao Xiaoqing. More scenes were that she was studying at the table, and Xiao Xiao was reading a book opposite her.
Lin You worked harder than before. The quarrel with her family gave her a sense of urgency, and she wanted to become independent as soon as possible.
Whether it was due to psychological pressure or not, Lin You, who rarely gets sick, fell ill with a cold the day before school started.
"It happens to be the beginning of school, woo..." Lin You lay on the bed with a thermometer in her mouth, talking vaguely, her whole body was listless due to a low-grade fever.
"Take your temperature and don't talk." Xiao Xiao sat on the side of the bed and looked at her disapprovingly, "Because Yuzu is too careless. You should wait until I come back last night before you remember to blow your hair?"
Lin You snorted through her nose, stretched out her hand to hook Xiao Xiao's fingers and shook them.
"..."
Xiao Xiao stuffed her hands back helplessly, covered the quilt, and touched her flushed cheeks due to fever, with a tenderness of love.
Lin You closed her eyes during her movements, and heard Xiao Xiao say: "Youzi, why don't you move out and live with me after school starts?"
Before she could answer, the electronic thermometer beeped. Xiao Xiao picked it up and looked at it. She was relieved, her body temperature had almost dropped.
Lin You didn't need to hold the thermometer in her mouth, she was finally able to speak normally, she slipped out of the bed and took Xiao Xiao's hand, and asked her sweetly, "Do you miss me?"
"Yes." Xiao Xiao admitted directly.
Seeing that Lin You couldn't stay in peace, she also lay down and wrapped both of them in the quilt.
Lin You said, "It will be contagious to you."
"It's okay." Xiao Xiao kissed her bright red lips, "Is it okay? Not here, I bought a house nearby, can Yuzu live in with me?"
Wait, Lin You was shocked: "Buy a house? When?"
"Last time you wanted to buy a dresser."
Lin You remembered that once she went shopping and fell in love with a super beautiful dressing table, but because Xiao Xiao's place was completely filled with plants and books, there was no place to put it, so she gave up... Actually, it was mainly because it was expensive.
She said incredulously, "Then you went to buy a house?"
Xiao Xiao didn't think it was a big deal: "Yes."
"..."
Lin You gave up on following Xiao Xiao's brain circuit first, then recalled it, and asked hesitantly, "You're not proposing to me, are you?"
Xiao Xiao: "Well..."
She just wanted to make Lin You happy, but speaking of it this way, it seemed that she really felt that way.
Lin You was held in Xiao Xiao's arms, and she could feel her body rising and falling with her breathing, and hear her steady heartbeat. She said: "If it is, will Yuzu agree to me?"
Lin You pretended: "Then I have to think about it—"
But no matter how you think about it, you will definitely agree.
In this seemingly meaningless chat, the fatigue caused by illness slowly came up, and Lin You fell asleep unconsciously.
She had a dream. I dreamed that the world was turned upside down by an accident, and the things in the dream seemed chaotic and depressing, and seemed gentle enough to make people cry, but no matter what it was, I forgot it all when I woke up.
Lin You stared blankly at the ceiling for a while, then turned to see Xiao Xiao's peaceful sleeping face.
She turned over, touched Xiao Xiao's fair and delicate cheeks, and her black hair that gradually grew to her shoulders.
Xiao Xiao was awakened by her staring gaze: "... Grapefruit?"
Lin You said, "Do you want your hair to grow?"
"Well, Yuzu likes long hair, right?"
Lin You smiled and kissed her: "I like whatever Xiao Xiao says."
She applied to move out of the dormitory at the beginning of school, bid farewell to her roommate in Luo Chuchu's reluctance, and lived with Xiao Xiao in a newly bought house outside the school.
The new house is really spacious. After Lin You and Xiao Xiao finished shopping for furniture on the rest day and moved all the things from the apartment, it still seemed a little empty, so Xiao Xiao raised more plants and bought more books. , filling up the vacancy again.
Lin You was speechless, what was the point of moving out like this
Xiao Xiao was very happy. When she slept together at night, she whispered in her ear: "Now Yuzi and I are a family."
Lin You heard it, but in the current situation, she couldn't say anything other than a soft weeping sound.
The next day, Lin You got up very late, but luckily she had no class in the morning.
Xiao Xiao got up earlier than her and had already gone to the laboratory.
Lin You sent a message asking her what she wanted for lunch. As expected, after getting a reply of "I like everything grapefruit can do", Lin You cooked what she liked and sent it to Xiao Xiao in an insulated box at noon.
After dinner, you can take a nap at Xiao Xiao's place, and then go to class, perfect.
Lin You thought happily, although in reality they were just living together, there was a sweet feeling of being newly married.
She briskly walked to the door of Xiao Xiao's laboratory, but saw a girl about her age standing in front of Xiao Xiao.
When Lin You came over, she heard the second part of the girl's words: "...he hasn't been free for several days, didn't you just keep him here? He's still a professor, seduce someone else's boyfriend, shameless Vixen!"
Xiao Xiao wore a mask and glanced at her coldly.
Lin You has been with her for so long, and it can be seen that she didn't listen to anything, but she was a little impatient because she thought it was noisy, so she hurried over: "Xiao Xiao!"
When Xiao Xiao heard her voice, her unhappiness disappeared immediately, she bent her eyes, left aside the girl, and came to help her carry the lunch box.
Lin You asked her in a low voice: "Is this the person who wrote a small composition in the space and said you unspoken rules in the last forum?"
Xiao Xiao: "Who is that?"
... Well, it seems that this person doesn't know anything.
When Lin You thought of that post, she watched it with the mentality of watching the excitement, but now thinking about those comments about Xiao Xiao, she felt somewhat annoyed.
Seeing that girl still insisting on chasing up to "ask for an explanation", she stood on tiptoe and kissed Xiao Xiao on the lips.
Xiao Xiao was stunned.
The girl was also stunned.
The student who heard the voice coming out of the laboratory and Xiang Yushu: "..."
Lin You took Xiao Xiao's hand, and raised her chin to the girl pretending to show off: "You see, this is my girlfriend, I don't have the time to seduce others. Also, before you trouble others next time, How about treating your brain first?"
"..."
The scene was silent.
Xiao Xiao stood outside with Lin You cooperatively for a while, and found no one was talking, so he called Lin You: "Eat."
Lin You: "Oh."
In the afternoon, new posts appeared rapidly on SW's campus forum.
Is it true that the female professor in the biology department has a girlfriend? ? ? [HOT]
1L Landlord
RBT, thousands of words can't express my feelings, I can only express it in one word, grass (a kind of plant)
2L unnamed freshmen

…
The post was built at a dizzying speed. Lin You read it for a while between classes, feeling happy, and intercepted some interesting replies and sent them to Xiao Xiao.
Yuzu: Now everyone knows that you are someone else's girlfriend~
Yi Xiaoxiao: Does Yuzu care about this
Yi Xiaoxiao: I can stick it on the door of the laboratory.
What are you going to post? Lin You quickly dismissed her thoughts.
Yuzu: No, no, no need for this one, this is fine!
Yi Xiaoxiao: ... Oh.
Lin You looked at the "Oh" who showed endless regret, covered her face, and couldn't help smiling slightly.
Maybe their future will have more resistance than others, but as long as they are together like this, even if there are twists and turns, they must be happy.
