  Towards the end of the term, Hao Meng was returning to Tianjin for the winter vacation after the exams. Lin Che was still sulking and didn’t pay much attention to him. This caused Hao Meng’s emotions to fluctuate and he spent all day sighing in the dormitory.

  Gu Ming Ren was also very busy during this time. He had too many classes and was busy finishing his homework. Lin Jiang was afraid to disturb him so he stayed in the dormitory and played games while listening to Hao Meng sighing.

  “Lin Jiang, can’t you help to say something nice about me to your Tang Di?” Hao Meng was very upset. He had already admitted his mistake to the other boy a hundred times, but Lin Che still gave him a very cold response.

  With his eyes fixed on the game interface, Lin Jiang answered, “You didn’t do anything wrong. Why do you need me to speak well of you?” “But he ignores me now.” Hao Meng’s tone was despondent. “Winter vacation is an entire month. If I ignore it, I will miss him to death.” Lin Jiang shivered at the sappy statement.

  The gaming screen showed victory and with a “yes”, Lin Jiang logged out.

  “How about this, don’t send him any messages these few days. Not even a word. Play hard-to-get, understand?”


  Lin Jiang pretended to be an expert at love, but actually, he didn’t want to allow his Tang Di the satisfaction. Why did Hao Meng have to pacify and cling to him? The bastard was surely scheming again.

  His phone vibrated and after a look, Lin Jiang answered immediately. “Ge, your class is over?”


  Gu Ming Ren had just finished a course exam. He walked out of the school building with a hand holding the phone and the other stuffed into his coat pocket. Exhaling a breath of white air, he said, “Yeah, coming down? I’m going over now.”


  “Coming down!” Lin Jiang changed his shoes and ran out quickly.

  Gu Ming Ren kept away his phone in his pocket and while recalling Lin Jiang’s excited voice, dry leaves were crushed under his footsteps.

  This year’s winter was particularly cold. Lin Jiang was only wearing one pair of pants and ended up shivering below his dormitory. As he rubbed his hands together for warmth, he looked out for Gu Ming Ren. When he saw him, he strode over and said, “It’s so damn cold this year.”


  As soon as Gu Ming Ren touched his thigh, he knew that this son of a bitch wanted elegance but not warmth and his face changed immediately. “If it’s so cold, why are you still wearing so little?”


  Lin Jiang gave a satisfied smile. “I’m just a handsome, frozen guy.”


  Feeling helpless, Gu Ming Ren sighed indulgently. That son of a bitch was becoming more and more narcissistic.

  “Don’t show me that face. You dare to tell me that at the start, it wasn’t my looks that made you love me so much that you could come back from the dead?” Lin Jiang said with empty confidence.

  Gu Ming Ren denied ruthlessly, “It wasn’t.”


  With a slight smile on his face, Lin Jiang bumped him with a shoulder. Bristling, he chided, “Can’t you have a little fun?! Will you die if you praise me a little? Only you are fucking good-looking. Don’t I deserve to be handsome too?”


  Gu Ming Ren laughed and pacified his little boyfriend by saying, “Yes, you’re handsome.”


  After saying that, he reached out his warm hand and wrapped it around Lin Jiang’s cold palm. Lin Jiang cursed and said in surprise, “Why are you so warm?!” He immediately presented his other hand and said without any reservations, “Warm this one too.”


  Gu Ming Ren blew on them for a while then put the boy’s hands into his pockets together with his.

  Lin Jiang stood face-to-face with him and leaned over to press his body against the other boy’s chest, then asked, “When will your exams be over?” After his exams in three to four days, he would be moving out but had not yet decided whether he would be staying with Gu Ming Ren or with Uncle Lin.

  “Half a month to go.” Gu Ming Ren felt the cool temperature of the other boy and drew him into his arms while replying softly.

  “That’s a long time.” Lin Jiang grumbled.

  In the next second, his mouth was sealed by Gu Ming Ren. Lin Jiang’s hands were still in his pockets but his hands were already wrapped around Lin Jiang’s waist. Lin Jiang let out an “oh” sound and took the initiative to deepen the kiss.

  “Shall I move to your place after my exams are over?” After the kiss, Lin Jiang had decided but he carefully added, “Will it affect you?” Gu Ming Ren answered without hesitation, “Yes.”


  In an instant, Lin Jiang was disappointed and frowned impatiently. “Then forget it. I’ll go live with my second uncle.” Gu Ming Ren lowered his head to skim his lips and said in a warm voice, “Move to my place.” “Didn’t you say it will affect you!”


  “I’ll control myself.”


  The topic of conversation suddenly turned sexy. Lin Jiang tutted and patted his chest to pledge, “Don’t you worry. During the exams, I wouldn’t even let you touch my butt!”


  That afternoon, Lin Jiang called Uncle Lin to tell him that he would be staying in his boyfriend’s house during the winter vacation. “Yes, we’ve made up. Now, it’s better than ever and we can’t separate. I’ll bring him over to meet you during Chinese New Year.”


  Seeing that he was so resolute, Uncle Lin agreed reluctantly. After all, he was grown up and beyond the control of his uncle.

  From his father’s conversation with his Tang Ge, Lin Che learned about Hao Meng’s winter vacation time.

  He was depressed. On one hand, Hao Meng said that he liked him, but then he rejected him! On the other hand, he was really embarrassed that day. As a seme, he couldn’t even restrain his own uke. It was extremely shameful and humiliating!

  Because of this, Lin Che had been working out nonstop during this time. He wanted to grow taller! To gain muscle! To overpower Hao Meng!

  But Hao Meng hadn’t contacted him for quite a few days. Lin Che was a little flustered and wondered what had happened to him. Didn’t he like him?! Why didn’t he send messages admitting to his mistake?! Was he being too cold, causing the other boy to give up?

  Today was Hao Meng’s last exam. Then, didn’t that mean that he would be going back to his hometown tomorrow?

  How dare he leave without telling him?!

  In anger, Lin Che called him.

  Hao Meng was having a farewell dinner of barbecue skewers with Lin Jiang. When he saw the caller ID, his heart jumped and he left the dormitory to pick it up.

  “Ah Che? You’re finally willing to talk to me, boo hoo hoo!” Hao Meng wanted to cry. His voice was pitiful but carried an obvious joy.

  Lin Che’s anger was inexplicably extinguished by Hao Meng’s grievances. His heart had obviously softened but he said in a harsh voice, “Speak to me properly, don’t act cute!” The act had already chased his temper away.

  Hao Meng shut his mouth and listened to Lin Che’s cold voice asking him, “Why haven’t you sent me any messages these few days?!” Hao Meng quickly explained, “You didn’t reply to me so I thought you were annoyed by me.”


  Of course, he couldn’t betray Lin Jiang. In his eyes, Lin Jiang was now a relationship saint. Apparently, playing hard-to-get was very effective. Lin Che had taken the initiative to contact him!

  “Didn’t I reply to you ‘okay’?” Lin Che replied grumpily but in his heart, he knew that he had been perfunctory. Then he asked, “When are you leaving?” “What do you think? I haven’t bought a bus ticket yet.” Hao Meng replied in a small voice.

  “Ah, so you’re been waiting for me? Hao Meng, are you satisfied with yourself, learning how to pretend with me?” Lin Che had just realised it! If the other boy had given up, he would surely have booked his ticket and prepared to leave. Now, the ticket had not even been booked, showing that he anticipated that Lin Che would look for him!

  Lin Che was now having a headache. He thought that he was smart, but had fallen down due to the same person twice!

  “You better come out right now. I’m driving over. If I don’t see you, I’ll beat you to death!” Lin Che’s voice was very aggressive and as he spoke, he fished out the car key and headed outside.

  Hao Meng quickly pacified him over the phone, “Okay, I know. Don’t be angry. I’ll wait for you at the school gate.”


  He went in to let Lin Jiang know. His face was filled with gratitude causing Lin Jiang to be confused. “Huh?”


  After he realised that Lin Che was taking the initiative to look for Hao Meng, Lin Jiang was triumphant and said, “Ha, I was right. Lin Che is someone you cannot indulge!”


  Although the result was unintentional, it didn’t prevent Lin Jiang from feeling good about himself. It seemed like he had suddenly found himself to be full of talent but yet suffered from being unable to display it, and he regretfully bit into a roasted wing.

  After Hao Meng went out on his date, Lin Jiang was left by himself in the room and felt a little lonely.

  His luggage was already packed but he had wanted to accompany Hao Meng for another night, then move over to Gu Ming Ren’s place tomorrow. In the end, Hao Meng went on a date and left him behind.

  After pondering it over, he felt that he had already done his utmost. Unburdened, he dragged his luggage out and took a taxi to Gu Ming Ren’s community.

  Gu Ming Ren had just finished his revisions and heard the doorbell. He went out to have a look and was surprised to see his little boyfriend arrive in advance.

  Gu Ming Ren glanced at his wristwatch and with an intense look in his eyes, said, “Since you’re coming over at this hour, did you miss me?”


  If not, why would he be this impatient?

  Lin Jiang scoffed and pushed him aside to carry his luggage in. “There’s no one in the dormitory. I had nothing to do so I came over.”


  Gu Ming Ren poured him a glass of water and leaned against the dining table, asking in a low voice, “Where’s your roommate?” Lin Jiang laughed sarcastically. “He went out on a date.”


  That thing had a same-sex nature but no human nature.

  Gu Ming Ren looked at him and laughed. “So you came to me for a date?” There seemed to be nothing wrong with this conclusion.

  Lin Jiang couldn’t refute it. Gu Ming Ren took his silence as an agreement and walked over meaningfully, gripping the back of his head for a deep kiss.

  He took the opportunity to lift Lin Jiang’s shirt. Lin Jiang held on to his principle and after breaking free, he covered the other boy’s mouth. “You have exams tomorrow!” Gu Ming Ren frowned, pried his hand away and said in a hoarse voice, “Just once.”


  He was already hard!

  Lin Jiang looked at the other boy’s bulging crotch. In his hesitation, his clothes were stripped clean.

  Gu Ming Ren turned up the heating in the living room, then carried Lin Jiang to the sofa. He let himself fall onto him and pressed him down. He had originally wanted to do it on the dining table but it was too hard. He was afraid that Lin Jiang would get injured and he couldn’t bear it.

  “Where’s that fucking control that you mentioned?” Lin Jiang felt weak at the touches and he used what trace of reasoning he had left to question.

  Gu Ming Ren kissed his neck and said in a low voice filled with desire, “You ate it.” Lin Jiang hummed. From then on, he couldn’t form a sentence, only letting out fleeting moans.

  Time and time again.

  It was a beautiful night in the room filled with sights.

  Lin Jiang woke up the next day very upset and recalled that he had previously vowed, “Don’t you worry. During the exams, I wouldn’t even let you touch my butt!”


  In the end, it had not only been touched but also hurt!

  Lin Jiang had been caught off guard and it was a slap in the face.

  He lay on his back with a smile. Beside him, the space was empty as Gu Ming Ren had left for his exam.

  On the first day of living together during the winter vacation, Lin Jiang stretched and got out of bed. He walked over and pulled open the long curtains. The warm sun shone on his plain face. Lin Jiang squinted and his lips curved.

  He looked forward to his future with him.
