The Protagonist Just Wants to Fall in Love [MTL]

Chapter 95 His Secret

The canteen in the corner of the campus was very deserted at the moment. Daily necessities and food were arranged in categories on the shelves, including bread, snacks, and instant noodles. He Yu bought a few things and picked up two bottles of yogurt.

　　Li Fengran followed him like a little tail, still in a trance.

　　He Yu glanced at him and took the things to pay the bill.

　　After a few beeps, the staff member said, "Thirty-eight in total."

　　He Yu took out fifty dollars from his pocket, and the other party gave him change and helped him put everything into the bag.

　　There was a staircase leading upwards outside the store. Due to the dim lighting, Li Fengran was distracted again and tripped, bumping directly into He Yu's chest. He Yu caught him, and after he stood firm, he held his hand tightly and did not let go.

　　There was hot water and a table outside where they could make instant noodles. After the two of them went upstairs, He Yu let go of him. Li Fengran's hand dropped, he lowered his head, and touched his wrist with his other hand.

　　He Yu made some instant noodles and added a piece of ham to his bowl. After closing the lid, they sat on a stool beside each other, looking at each other in silence.

　　Li Fengran had a lot to say and ask, but when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them back, stuck in his throat.

　　He Yu opened a bottle of yogurt, tilted his head back and took a sip. The thick yogurt left a sweet and sour taste between his lips and teeth. "After eating instant noodles, let's go back to the dormitory."

　　"Yeah." Li Fengran lowered his head and counted on his fingers.

　　He Yu took out his cell phone and checked the time.

　　"It's cold, put on some clothes."

　　Li Fengran raised his hand again and pulled up the zipper of his jacket.

　　"He Yu..."

　　He Yu turned his head and saw Li Fengran's half-lowered face, unable to see the expression on his face.

　　"I'm here." He Yu responded.

　　"Did you hear everything?" Li Fengran asked softly.

　　He Yu did not answer but asked: "Do you want me to hear it?"

　　To say how much I heard - all of it.

　　Li Fengran: "What do you mean?"

　　"It's meaningless." He Yu said.

　　After a moment, He Yu asked, "Are you clear about how you felt when you said that?"

　　He put his hands between his legs, turned his head away and stopped looking at Li Fengran, but stared at the empty space in front of him, "Is it simple, he doesn't want me to be distracted by others, or..."

　　"Am I weird?" Li Fengran understood what he meant and interrupted him, saying in a neither loud nor soft voice, "Am I weird in this way?"

　　There was silence for a while.

　　"Do you like men?" He Yu asked him.

　　Li Fengran lowered his eyes and looked at his hands: "I don't like it."

　　He didn't like the smell of sweat on other people's bodies after playing ball, but he liked the smell of He Yu.

　　He Yu is different.
