Zhou Shuo accompanied Xia Lin around the playground again and he found out that Xia Lin didn't seem to be in a hurry to find something. Just walking aimlessly and he didn't know what he was thinking about.

Until night fell, Zhou Shuo couldn't help reminding him: "Second Young Master, do you want to go to the cafeteria for dinner? If you don't go, you won't be able to buy food..." 

Only then did Xia Lin slowly withdrew his mind, looked at the setting sun that was almost invisible from the horizon, and muttered in a low voice: "Sure enough, something like destiny... huh."

Zhou Shuo didn't hear clearly and asked, "Second Young Master, what did you just say?" 

"It's nothing," Xia Lin said as he turned and walked in the direction of the cafeteria, "Let's go eat."

When the two came to the cafeteria, there were not a lot of people.

They randomly picked a table to put their trays. Zhou Shuo took two bowls to scoop the meal. Xia Lin sat at the table and waited inattentively and inadvertently saw Yu Luotong passing by the aisle with the leftover plate. At the moment when they looked at each other, Yu Luotong seemed a little surprised and cramped.

If it were the usual, Xia Lin would definitely pretend not to see him, and look away if nothing happened. But this time, he suddenly stopped Yu Luotong. 

Yu Luotong was taken aback for a moment and stopped to look at him.

"Can you sit for a while? I want to ask you something." Xia Lin's tone sounds quite kind, which made Yu Luotong a little flattered. He thought for a while, nodded, put down the dinner plate, and sat down diagonally across Xia Lin.

Xia Lin pondered for a moment and asked, "You and Song Yan, are you together?" 

Yu Luotong did not expect that he would actually ask this when he opened his mouth. After a long pause, he said, "Why do you ask?"

"This afternoon, I saw you in the classroom... well, I ran into it by accident and I won't talk about it everywhere. Don't worry." 

Yu Luotong was not worried that he would go around and talk about it but he was a little bit disheartened about his attitude when it came to this matter. 

He lowered his head and was silent for a while, then whispered: "Yes, I'm with him."

Xia Lin didn't speak for a long time. After a while, Yu Luotong thought he didn't plan to talk anymore and suddenly heard Xia Lin speak again: "Since you're together, treat Song Yan better."

Yu Luotong originally wanted to excite him but he didn't expect that after waiting so long, after waiting for such a sentence, tears of anger almost came out for a while. He turned his head slightly, desperately telling himself that he should stand up, not to cry at this time, and not to make the other person look down on him even more.

After a while, he turned around and gave Xia Lin a bright smile: "You don't need to worry about this. Since I chose Song Yan, I will of course treat him twice as good." After finishing talking, he picked up the dinner plate and left quickly.

When Zhou Shuo came back with two bowls of rice, he saw Yu Luotong hurriedly leaving from the back. He looked at Xia Lin strangely and saw that he had returned to an indifferent expression of "Don't talk to me", so he closed his mouth. 


After the end of self-study this evening, Xia Lin did not stay in the classroom for half an hour. Instead, he picked up his schoolbag and turned to Song Yan and said, "Is it convenient to go together?"

Song Yan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "It's convenient." 

His mouth was almost grinning from ear to ear. The two each walked out of the carport with their bicycles. 

Xia Lin turned around and said to Zhou Shuo: "You go first, I will chat with Song Yan for a while."

As his bodyguard, Zhou Shuo naturally didn't dare to leave Xia Lin alone. He thought for a while and said, "I'll wait for you at the intersection ahead." 

Song Yan didn't know why Xia Lin suddenly uncharacteristically took the initiative to chat with him. He found that he was a little nervous and expectant that he pushed his bicycle next to Xia Lin.

Xia Lin walked out of the school gate, avoided the constant flow of students, and led Song Yan into a secluded path.

The two were silent for a while. 

Song Yan looked at Xia Lin from time to time, wanting to wait for him to speak first, but couldn't help but want to actively break the silence. 

When he was so entangled, he heard Xia Lin slowly speak: "Song Yan, you have made up your mind to go this way, haven't you?"

Song Yan looked back and forth in the field, "Which way?" 

Isn't it the path Xia Lin took him? 

Xia Lin continued: "Are you sure you like men?

"Huh?" 

The topic turned a little fast. Song Yan was taken aback for a moment and then remembered that he had asked Yu Luotong for a test in the afternoon.

He feels afraid that if he denies that he likes men so hastily, Xia Lin will divide him out of his circle with a look of indifference.

Although Yu Luotong said that his sexual orientation is not yet certain, in order to become "the same with Xia Lin",  he will pretend to be gay.

Thinking of this, Song Yan nodded without hesitation: "I'm sure. I like men."
