When Bai Chen went back to school on Monday, he thanked Li Botao.
Lu Botao sat beside Bai Chen flipping through his book, when he heard this, he turned his head and shook it slightly: “No need to, I just happened to see it.”
That day, Li Botao asked Guo Jiawen to burrow his notes but Guo Jiawen happened to be in the bathroom. He told Li Botao to just go to his seat to get it. When Li Botao got there, he saw the chat record on Guo Jiawen’s laptop that he forgot to turn off.
“Although it’s fine in the game now.” Li Botao looked at Guo Jiawen and Zhao Zhenyu, who were sitting three or four rows away from the two of them. He reminds Bai Chen in a low voice: “But I still want to warn you to be careful.”
“Okay.” Bai Chen nodded as he listened to Li Botao, then he thanked him again: “Thank you.”
The two were not talkative people, after speaking, they both listened quietly.
System: [Little master, saying thank you can be more sincere if you were to invite him to dinner or send gifts.]
Bai Chen doubts: [Have a meal? Send a gift?]
System: [Yes. Your friendship can also be strengthened.]
The system can see that Bai Chen’s impression of Li Botao was not bad so it makes a suggestion.
Bai Chen lowered his eyes and thought for a while before nodding.
After class, when packing their things, Bai Chen said to Li Botao: “Let’s have lunch together in the afternoon. It’s on me.”
AYuan would be jealous if he had a gift so Bai Chen was reluctant to give.
Lu Botao stopped his packings and looked up at Bai Chen, “the two of us?”
Bai Chen showed a sweet smile, “With AYuan.”
Li Botao understood, however, he still nodded and accepted Bai Chen’s invitation.
Bai Chen immediately smiled and sent a text message to Lu Yuan about lunch.
When all the morning classes were over, Bai Chen and Li Botao walked to the place where they had made an appointment with Lu Yuan.
Usually Bai Chen would wait in the classroom for Lu Yuan to pick him up, but today Li Botao is here. It’s not good for Bai Chen to let Li Botao wait for Lu Yuan with him.
When leaving the classroom, Guo Jiawen deliberately bumped into Bai Chen. The system tells Bai Chen so he swiftly dodged it. However, Guo Jiawen, who had failed to hit, tried too hard so his body leaned forward under the force and he fell to the ground. Though he did put his hand out to support himself so he didn’t fall all the way.
It’s just that the pose is a bit ugly.
Bai Chen and Li Botao agreed to ignore Guo Jiawen next to them. The two walked to the stairs very calmly as if nothing happened.
“Old third.” Zhao Zhenyu walked over and helped Guo Jiawen up. He glanced at the backs of the two in front of him then looked down at Guo Jiawen. He wanted to say something but in the end he didn’t say anything.
Guo Jiawen stood up straight with Zhao Zhenyu’s help, his gazes looking at Bai Chen’s back sinisterly.
The three settled for lunch at a Chinese restaurant outside the school. When it was time to leave, Li Botao took advantage of Lu Yuan check out and said to Bai Chen, “It’s better for you and Lu Yuan to keep a low profile.”
Bai Chen moved his gazes away from Lu Yuan, a little puzzled: “We’ve been very low-key.”
The world is not so open to homosexuality. Many people have malice towards the homosexuality community, because of this, Bai Chen was very restrained when he is outside. They only kiss and hug at home only.
Li Botao was quite speechless. He thought about how along the way here, the sweet appearance of the two blatantly holding hands, as if they are afraid that other people don’t know their relationship.
He was about to say something but from the corner of his eyes, he saw Lu Yuan walking towards them. At the same time, Bai Chen also turned to look at Lu Yuan happily.
His worry seemed a little unnecessary.
Sometimes it’s better to just be happy with your life. Other people’s gazes and gossip are not a big deal compared to those happiness.
Li Botao thought about it, the acceptance of young people now seems to be very high. They came all the way here and he saw many schoolmates smiling kindly as they saw them holding hands.
When parting, Li Botao sincerely blesses Bai Chen and Lu Yuan. With a serious expression and solemn tone: “I wish you happiness.”
After he finished speaking, he looked at Lu Yuan again: “Xiaoyu is good, you have to be nice to him.”
Lu Yuan nodded, also answering very seriously: “I will.”
Li Botao got a satisfactory answer then he nodded to both of them, turned around and took a lunch break in the school dormitory.
“Baby’s friend is very nice.” Lu Yuan rubbed Bai Chen’s head with a gentle smile on his face, seemingly a little more happy.
After Lu Yuan and Bai Chen start dating, the two were together but Lu Yuan had never seen Bai Chen’s friends. When at home, Lu Yuan also saw that except for his family, he had no other contact. Deep in Lu Yuan’s heart, although he somewhat enjoys this kind of exclusive devotion that Bai Chen only belongs to him alone and he is the only one in his life, there are still some worries. Does his baby feel lonely when he’s busy and can’t be with him?
Now seeing Li Botao, Lu Yuan was relieved.
On the other hand, Bai Chen has some doubts: “friend?”
Lu Yuan looked at Bai Chen’s appearance, realizing his baby doesn’t seem to know much about this. He reached out and held Bai Chen’s hand. The broad hand tightly wrapped Bai Chen’s small palm. “Right, friend. Just like me and Geng Yuhuai.”
The doubts in Bai Chen’s eyes dissipated and he nodded, “Okay, friend.”
“Baby can contact him more when I’m not around in the future.”
“Okay.”
After that, Bai Chen really got in touch with Li Botao more. When the two of them are in class, they will naturally sit together and occasionally share notes. When playing games, if Bai Chen was not with Lu Yuan, Geng Yuhuai or the other, and Li Botao was online, he would pull Li Botao to fight the dungeon together and Li Botao agreed every time.
The day went by so plainly and sweetly. In the middle, Li Botao also applied for a dormitory change and invited Bai Chen and Lu Yuan to a meal.
On a weekend morning, Bai Chen, who was still sleeping, woke up by the phone again.
Bai Chen glanced at it dazedly.
Just like last time he woke up, the person who called was Geng Yuhuai again.
“Sister-in-law, you got hung up on the forum again. This time it’s our school’s forum.” Geng Yuhuai’s fussing voice from the other side entered Bai Chen’s ears.
Bai Chen was still in a daze and wasn’t fully awake so he just subconsciously said “um”.
“Hey hey hey but this time, don’t worry, sister-in-law. The poster was torn apart by a large group of girls in our school.” It wasn’t known what Geng Yuhuai was actually laughing at: “Sister-in-law, get up and take a look. I sent you the link to the post. It’s interesting.”
Suddenly a strong wheat-colored arm stretched out behind him and took the mobile phone in Bai Chen’s hand: “Forget what I said?”
Geng Yuhuai on the other side of the phone heard the voice and immediately ended the call.
Bai Chen turned around on the bed with some difficulty, then stretched out his hands to Lu Yuan, who had just returned from exercising.
This is him wanting a hug.
Lu Yuan put the phone away and sat by the bed. He pulled Bai Chen, together with the quilt, into his embrace and whispered softly: “Sleep a little longer?”
Bai Chen couldn’t open his eyes, just nodding dazedly. Then he buried his head in Lu Yuan’s arms and rubbed a few times, then fell asleep again.
Geng Yuhuai, who hung up the phone over there, patted his chest with lingering fears: “So close.”
Pan Jianbin stuck his head out of the quilt, “You got caught. Knowing how protective boss is, I warned you but you still called. You just need to wait for boss’s revenge.”
Geng Yuhuai made a face at Pan Jianban: “I am sharing gossip, humph.”
His mouth is tough but when Geng Yuhuai thought about how Lu Yuan might hand over a lot of work to him to complete, he couldn’t help but shudder.
Workers have no human rights.
When Geng Yuhuai discovered the school’s post, with the last experience, he first called and told Lu Yuan. Lu Yuan knew Geng Yuhuai’s character so he told him that Bai Chen was still sleeping so don’t call him, but Geng Yuhuai couldn’t hold back the hot fires of gossip. In the end, he still risked his death and he was also caught by Lu Yuan. After hearing Lu Yuan’s voice, he hung up the phone with a guilty conscience.
Past 10 o’clock, Bai Chen woke up in a daze. Lu Yuan noticed Bai Chen’s movement and he set the laptop he was working on down and picked up Bai Chen.
After Bai Chen washed up and ate a late breakfast under Lu Yuan’s feeding, only then did he remember the call from Geng Yuhuai earlier.
“I was hung up on the school forum?” Bai Chen asked Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan nodded calmly.
The awakened Bai Chen knew in his heart that Guo Jiawen should be the one behind it.
Just after the rumors about his homosexuality cheating on the game forum were resolved, how would Guo Jiawen blacken him now? Plagiarism?
Lu Yuan has already taken the laptop and checked on the school forum. He clicked on the post blackening Bai Chen, then he hugged Bai Chen who was standing on the side. The two sat on the sofa and read the post together.
In the morning, Lu Yuan just glanced at this post and closed it. Then he called and ordered someone to find out who was behind it.
The title of the post is very catchy.
[I didn’t expect the school grass Lu Yuan and Su Yu from the Computer Science major to be gay. So disgusting, these are the pictures and truth.]
Because of Lu Yuan’s name, the post has a high click through rate, it was ranked firmly in the first place of the forum.
Bai Chen looked at Lu Yuan’s name, his brow furrowed, a little angry.
Lu Yuan lowered his head and kissed the eyebrows of the person in his arms, and said warmly: “Don’t be angry, it’s not worth it.”
Bai Chen pouted, “I won’t let anyone talk about you like that.”
Lu Yuan’s heart softened. He coaxed Bai Chen: “ With baby’s name, I am very happy.”
Bai Chen thought about it, he was also very happy with Lu Yuan’s name. It’s just that it is better if it’s not negative.
But even so, Bai Chen’s mood was calmed down by Lu Yuan.
However, Bai Chen still made a note about Guo Jiawen in his heart.
