AMA Chapter43

The three of them went to the supermarket first.

 

Yin Gu pushed the cart, and Yu Chengsong threw vegetables into it. Yu Chengdi reluctantly took his eyes away from the snack area and did not ask for more. He just helped Yu Chengsong hold the plastic bag and pick up eggs.

 

Yin Gu saw it.

 

If Yu Chengsong’s current growth is entirely due to his own efforts, then the character formation of Yu Chengdi should be attributed to at least half of it, or even more, by his elder brother Yu Chengsong.

 

Although he is tough on the outside but soft on the inside, he is also sensible and makes people feel sorry for him.

 

There is a seafood area on the left at the front turn, where they are going to buy fish. There is a snack area on the right, which is not part of the plan.

 

Just as Yin Gu was about to turn right, Yu Chengsong suddenly stopped, lowered his head to scan the menu on his phone, and patted the uninjured part of Yu Chengdi’s head.

 

“50 yuan, pick by yourself, ten minutes.”

 

Yu Chengdi looked up, his eyes widened, his mouth slightly open, as if he had not expected that his elder brother would let him “pick whatever he wants” after personally picking him up from school. The surprise came so suddenly that he was stunned.

 

“Count down to three.” Yu Chengsong raised three fingers.

 

Yu Chengdi immediately limped and ran away as a reflex.

 

“Why didn’t he fall to death?” Yu Chengsong sighed, put away his phone, and walked towards the seafood area. “Short legs.”

 

“Tough on the outside but soft on the inside again.” Yin Gu pushed the cart and followed.

 

“Any objections?” Yu Chengsong glanced at him.

 

“No.” Yin Gu pointed to the crabs in the water tank. “I want to eat them, can you make them?”

 

“I can prepare a Manchu-Han banquet for you.” Yu Chengsong raised his hand and called the waiter.

 

There is some bragging involved in the Manchu-Han Banquet (A full, formal banquet, combining Manchurian and Chinese delicacies.), but Brother Song does have the ability to “cook a few hard-core dishes”.

 

He took Yu Chengdi home first, sending the younger one to do homework while he was busy in the kitchen, while Yin Gu went to the mall to look for the small bed.

 

“It smells so good.” Yin Gu pushed the door open and looked into the kitchen while changing his shoes. “Is it not ready yet?”

 

“It’s done, wash the pot now.” Yu Chengsong leaned out half of his body and looked at him. “This fast?”

 

“Who washing?” Yin Gu laughed,” it’s settled. They will deliver it over tomorrow.”

 

 

“Little idiot washing.” Yu Chengsong walked to the table and sat down. “We can’t let him eat and drink for free.”

 

Steamed crab, braised pork, cola chicken wings, braised prawns, smashed cucumbers, and tomatoes with sugar…

 

“It’s the New Year.” Yin Gu took out two bottles of Coke from the refrigerator.

 

The two of them waited until Yu Chengdi finished scrubbing the pot before they started eating.

 

……

 

Two days passed in a flash. On the day of the sports competition, Yu Chengsong and Yin Gu arrived at school early as participants and gathered at the playground with the serious athletes in the class.

 

The sports competition is scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, but the school has always been lenient with students’ holidays. They have holidays on Monday and Tuesday, a short week of review before the start of school, and monthly exams on the following Monday and Tuesday.

 

At 7:30, almost all the students arrived. Those who were supposed to sit sat down, and those who were supposed to stand stood up and listened to the principal’s crisp and concise speech, “…Okay, I won’t say more. I hope all the athletes will work hard and strive for the first place!”

 

As soon as the principal stepped down from the podium, the school art troupe took over immediately. The cool opening street dance of ten people was a blast.

 

Yu Chengsong was watching from below and once again became worried about the strength of their class’s cheerleading team.

 

This contrast is too f*cking tragic.

 

The cultural committee did not join the school art troupe for the sake of class honor. It seems like it is true love.

 

“Hurry up and change your clothes. Our class will be next after class 15. After the art troupe finishes the performance, the cheerleaders of each class must be in position immediately.” Jia Manning ran over wearing a baseball cap. From Yu Chengsong’s perspective, it looked like a small cap that had become a spirit and was running back and forth. “Brother Song, Brother Gu! Your clothes are hard to dress. Do you need help?”

 

“No need.” They both said in unison.

 

“……” Jia Manning looked at them strangely, “Actually, I don’t mean anything else.”

 

“That’s still not necessary.” Yu Chengsong glanced at her and smiled, “I’m afraid you’ll be tired.”

 

Jia Manning sighed to the sky and went to urge others.

 

After the art troupe finishes dancing, the cheerleading team of each class has to hold the class banner and walk around the playground twice. Every year, each class racks their brains to come up with a winning combination to make each flower more beautiful than the other.

 

What Yu Chengsong said about bikinis last time was not an exaggeration. At the sports competition at the beginning of the freshman year, all the boys in a class in the senior year wore girls’ bikinis on their tops. They directly defeated the group of sophomores who were wearing skirts and won first place in the cheerleading team.

 

Their principal was very open-minded. Not only was he not angry when he saw it, he even laughed for a long time and praised them for knowing how to wear shorts. Otherwise, it would be too uncivilized for a group of old men to wear girls’ bikinis in summer.

 

At the door of the locker room, a group of Ogas and Betas who had just changed their clothes looked at them hesitantly and asked, “Brother Song and Brother Gu, when are you going to change?”

 

“Now.” Yu Chengsong waited for the last oga to come out and pushed the door in with Yin Gu.

 

Yu Chengsong quickly changed into a maid’s skirt without even taking the ears off and hung it directly around his waist.

 

“I’m already feeling hot.” He fanned himself, unable to help but complain, “These people are too practical, it would be better to use some thin cloth, it’s almost June, it is amazing that we both didn’t get heatstroke after wearing three layers of cloth on the left and right.”

 

“I feel like I can’t hold on long enough to dance anymore.” Yin Gu sighed and turned around.

 

Yu Chengsong helped him tidy up the back.

 

After watching it at home for two consecutive nights, he now has the most basic resistance, at least he won’t be transported back to spring after just one look.

 

“The skirt should be shorter.” He said. “It’s damn hot.”

 

“Then it can’t be covered…” Yin Gu said.

 

“I know.” Yu Chengsong stopped him.

 

The two men took out a few things from their bags, put them on, and pushed the door open to go out.

 

After this period of training and observation by classmates, the fact that Yu Chengsong and Yin Gu had joined the cheerleading team had become known to the whole school.

 

Last year, their class came up with the idea of everyone wearing doll costumes, but they just fell in with the crowd and didn’t gain any attention.

 

This time, because there were two real school handsome boys, their class hadn’t even moved yet, but as soon as Class 15 showed up, the audience burst into cheers.

 

The door of the locker room was pushed open. Jia Manning was about to start boasting, but when she raised her eyes, she was instantly stunned by the two people in front of her and almost fell to her knees.

 

Yu Chengsong and Yin Gu walked out calmly, exposed to the gazes of all the teachers and students in the school.

 

The entire playground suddenly became eerily quiet. No one was sure that it was Yu Chengsong and Yin Gu, but they subconsciously thought it was them because their faces were not visible at all, and both of them were wearing scary rabbit masks with bared teeth and blood on their heads.

 

They are the same height and have the same long legs. One of them is wearing a maid’s long skirt, with his broad shoulders and narrow waist perfectly highlighted by the skirt. He was holding a bloody dinner knife in his hand, and his white apron and mask were covered with “blood”. He stands beside the other with his back straight, his head slightly tilted, and his rabbit eyes staring straight at the audience.

 

The other one was wearing a pink dress with a table knife hanging from a bow on his waist. The pink was stained with blood, making it look more like red. He was holding a bunch of red roses in his right hand and a bloody axe in the left. He tilted his head and looked at the “maid rabbit” next to him.

 

The audience suddenly reacted and burst into deafening shouts.

 

“With this height and build, it must be them!”

 

“F*ck, cross-dressing, horror! I’m gone, aaaaaaaah!”

 

“Clap, clap, clap, clap! Oh my god, oh my god!”

 

“What have I done to deserve this? F*ck…”

 

……

 

Jia Manning almost fainted. She stretched out her hand tremblingly and pressed her philtrum, pinching it hard, and said weakly, “Who, who bought the masks for them?”

 

“Me.” The cultural committee looked at her, a little surprised. “They didn’t say what they wanted to do either, I even thought they were preparing for Halloween in advance.”

 

Jia Manning covered her face: “Prepare half a year in advance?”

 

But it has to be said that the power of this body is very impressive. The whole school’s attention was focused on their class. The “clicking” sounds of mobile phone cameras never stopped, and the teachers were also clapping in amazement.

 

Lao Li stood up and applauded them, smiling so much that he shouted to them from a distance, “Thank you for your hard work!”

 

The cheerleading team represented the class and circled the playground twice. Yu Chengsong and Yin Gu were responsible for holding the banner—passionate, class 16 is undefeated! High morale, class 16 is the strongest!”

 

Yu Chengsong looked at the two big words “Passionate” beside him and felt something was wrong. He felt that the main responsibility was still on him. Passionate was a very gay thing…

 

When they passed by their class’s auditorium, a bunch of people in the class went crazy. Qian Xiaoyu waved a small yellow flag vigorously, shouting at the top of his lungs, “Passionate! Brother Song is awesome!”

 

Yu Chengsong wanted to tell him not to speak if he hadn’t memorized the slogan, but Qian Xiaoyu shouted again: “High morale, Brother Gu is the strongest!”

 

Brother Gu is the strongest?

 

Yu Chengsong turned his head abruptly, and before he could open his mouth, he heard Yin Gu looking straight ahead and saying seriously, “Brother Song is the strongest, Brother Song is the most handsome, our Brother Song is the most powerful!”

 

The banner was quite long, and they were quite far away from each other, so if he could hear this sentence, it meant that the group of cheerleaders twisting their heads behind him could also hear it, and even the audience seats nearby could hear it.

 

Yu Chengsong covered his rabbit ears, and sure enough, the next second, the voice of the person he heard was higher in pitch.

 

They have all evolved into beasts, howling at the sun fiercely.

If the time and place weren’t inappropriate, Yu Chengsong would really like to give Yin Gu a middle finger.

 

It feels even more fun to show off in front of the whole school, right?

 

After walking two laps, Yu Chengsong, who was not very fond of sweating, couldn’t stand it anymore. Without waiting for the cultural committee to gather, he waved his hand and pulled Yin Gu to go to the locker room.

 

He wanted to pull his wrist, but Yin Gu probably wanted his clothes straightened, so he moved his hand.

 

He immediately grabbed Yin Gu’s hand.

 

It happens in broad daylight, in full view of everyone.

 

He grabbed Yin Gu’s hand.

 

Before Yin Gu could react, there was a burst of exclamations of surprise from all around, the sound of taking photos, and people shouting, “I knew it!”, “Wish you and your partner’s life go long and better”, and “Ahhhhhhhh”.

 

Yin Gu turned his head and looked at him, or, to be more precise, the mask was looking at him.

 

The picture was not pretty at all, with his bloody teeth bared and his eyes glaring, which was completely opposite to Yin Gu’s expression.

 

Yin Gu would probably be slightly stunned and look at him with a bit of surprise, but would not ask, “Why are you holding my hand?” Instead, he would give him the opportunity to find a comfortable position himself.

 

Yin Gu was only responsible for catching.

 

This was probably a special tacit understanding between the two of them. Although no one said anything, they both anticipated what was about to happen.

 

The sweat on his palms gradually wet them, and Yin Gu turned his head back. The two of them maintained this posture and slowly walked towards the locker room.

 

“You…” Yu Chengsong scratched his palm in his sleeve with his other hand. His IQ was probably sweating away, and he asked a nonsense question, “Isn’t it hot?”

 

“Hmm?” Yin Gu looked at him again, as if he didn’t expect his step to be so different, but he still took it dutifully. “It’s hot, but you can’t take it off here.”

 

“Then why aren’t you sweating?” Yu Chengsong scratched the fingertips of his hand. The sweat was all on him. Yin Gu’s palm was hot, but there was no sweat.

 

“I don’t sweat easily.” Yin Gu said.

 

“Oh.” Yu Chengsong said, “Me too.”

 

The meaningless conversation ended, but the awkwardness did not go away. Instead, they called on their friends, and they flew around Yu Chengsong.

 

He couldn’t help but tilt his head slightly and glance at Yin Gu’s profile—ah no, it was the side profile of the mask, and the small part of his neck exposed under the mask. The clothes covered it too well, and he couldn’t see anything below.

 

It wasn’t known who selected the song on the radio speaker next to his ear, but it vibrates in his ears with a full dynamic feeling—

 

“Right, right, right, right, right, right, on this day I want, I want, I want, I want, I want, you see my proud, proud, proud, proud heart, blooming, letting go, letting go, with infinite charm!”

 

……

 

Yu Chengsong took a breath, his heartbeat gradually catching up with the rhythm of the song…

 

I want, I want, I want, I want…

 

The temperature of his palms began to burn, and for a moment some emotion told him to let go.

 

But he held on tightly.

 

The sun is beautiful, but it is dazzling when it is far away and hot when it is close.

 

He would rather have it permed.
