LMALL Chapter 1

Yu Yao said she wanted to treat Yu Jiaxing to ice cream as soon as she got out of class, but Yu Jia Xing wasn’t quite sure what she wanted to do. Although the two of them had been in the same class for over a year, they usually did not communicate much.

Yu Jia Xing doesn’t really interact with anyone. The girls in the class thought he was introverted and shy, white and good-looking, docile and meek like a white rabbit.

When Yu Yao suddenly showed a shy look, Yu Jia Xing was even more at a loss.

Yu Yao: “Yu Jia Xing, what do you think of me?”

Yu Jia Xing opened his mouth and thought for a long time before he deliberated: “Very cheerful, very……quite good. But……” he said ‘but’ Yu Yao looked up at him and he continued, “but sorry, I don’t like you.”

Yu Yao instantly changed her face, rolled her eyes, and said, “I don’t like you either. I mean – I’m like this, you think Jing Fu Yuan……”

Before she could finish her sentence, Yu Jia Xing said very abruptly: “It’s still better for you to like me then.” After saying that, he bowed his head and hurriedly walked away.

Yu Yao froze in place as her best friend, who was eavesdropping from the side, said: “No way? Yu Jia Xing likes you?”

Jing Fu Yuan was waiting for Yu Jia Xing downstairs and when he saw him in a hurry, he jokingly asked him if he was in a hurry to go to the toilet.

He didn’t expect Yu Jia Xing to look up aggressively and say: “There’s someone who likes you.”

Jing Fu Yuan was stunned, then laughed and gave a soft ‘en’.

What does ‘en’ mean? It was ambiguous.

Yu Jia Xing asked: “Don’t you want to know who it is?”

Jing Fu Yuan still smiled and gave an ‘en’.

So do you want to or not?

Yu Jia Xing pursed his lips: “Yu Yao from our class.”

“En.”

Yu Jia Xing got a little anxious and tugged on Jing Fu Yuan’s sleeve.

Only then did Jing Fu Yuan smile and move over to say: “So did you tell her that I already have someone I like?”

Yu Jia Xing dodged him, “No. I told her ‘It’s still better for you to like me then’.

Jing Fu Yuan couldn’t hold back his laughter as he asked Yu Jia Xing: “Are you stupid?”

Yu Jia Xing was a little annoyed, not knowing what was stupid about him, but on second thought, he felt that even if he stopped Yu Yao alone, there would be many more ‘Yu Yao’ to come. After all, Jing Fu Yuan was so good, there must be many people who liked him.

He was too worried. He wanted Jing Fu Yuan to be his alone, and he wanted everyone to know that Jing Fu Yuan was his alone.

He was thinking hard when Jing Fu Yuan spoke again.

Jing Fu Yuan said: “If she likes you, what should I do?”

Yu Jia Xing didn’t understand and looked up at him.

Jing Fu Yuan said again: “She is in the same class as you, so she can see you every day.”

“You can see me every day too.”

Jing Fu Yuan was very unreasonable, “She’s closer to you.” When he saw that no one was nearby he secretly hugged Yu Jia Xing, “If she really likes you, I’d be jealous and hide you.”

Jing Fu Yuan’s love words were first-class, Yu Jia Xing could not out-talk, his ears secretly reddened, grabbed his arm and closed his eyes.

Jing Fu Yuan saw his eyelashes fluttering and asked him: “Do you want me to kiss you?”

Yu Jia Xing, however, suddenly opened his eyes: “Want you to like me for a little longer.”

A little longer, a little longer.

He had liked Jing Fu Yuan for three years, followed him to this university, and got together with Jing Fu Yuan now with much difficulty.

He wanted Jing Fu Yuan to like him for a longer time, and greedily, he hoped that Jing Fu Yuan would never get tired of him.

He liked Jing Fu Yuan so much.

Jing Fu Yuan sighed and said helplessly and dotingly to Yu Jia Xing: “I will always like you.”

His little guy always looked insecure and wanted kisses and hugs. It made him really want to bully him in particular.

Jing Fu Yuan took advantage of the fact that no one was passing by to lower his head and nibble on Yu Jia Xing’s ear, and said in a serious way when he looked up: “Bad guy.”

Yu Jia Xing couldn’t figure out what was so bad about himself, so he covered the ear that Jing Fu Yuan had bitten and looked up at him.

Jing Fu Yuan couldn’t stand this look on Yu Jia Xing’s face. There was only him in Yu Jia Xing’s eyes, relying on him wholeheartedly, obedient and easy to bully, and he is afraid that he can’t help but do some sinful things.

He turned to his side, and Jing Fu Yuan shielded him from the direct sunlight, and Yu Jia Xing was a little confused.

But Jing Fu Yuan suddenly reached out to twirl his hair, “Mine, not for others to see.”

All the way back to the classroom, Yu Jia Xing had a smile on his lips, the weather wasn’t too hot, his ears and face were flushed, and his body was covered with an air of cheerfulness.

Yu Yao knew that Yu Jia Xing was already an adult, but she still couldn’t help but associate him with the word ‘teenager’.

She heard that Yu Jia Xing’s birthday was late, and he had just turned 19 today in April.

Her best friend had just speculated whether Yu Jia Xing had a crush on her, and she thought it would be great if that was the case.

What kind of person wouldn’t like such a clean and gentle young man?

But a woman’s sixth sense is very accurate, and Yu Yao could feel that Yu Jia Xing’s attitude towards her was polite but distant.

Yu Jia Xing’s look was too deceptive. Everyone thought he was introverted and shy, but no one thought he was aloof.

Yu Yao propped her chin up and looked at his back, thinking that he was worthy of being the person Jing Fu Yuan liked, just like Jing Fu Yuan, he was cold to the bone.

Halfway through the lesson, Yu Yao received a text message from Jing Fu Yuan, four hard words that made her uncomfortable all over.

Jing Fu Yuan: [Stay away from him].

Yu Yao shook her head, just no, just no.

After class Yu Yao went to find Yu Jia Xing again, “Why did you just leave, I still have something to say.”

Yu Jia Xing didn’t want to listen at all, “Go ahead then.”

Yu Yao blinked and said: “Do you think Jing Fu Yuan will like me?”

Yu Jia Xing was very decisive: “I don’t know him well.”

Yu Yao almost broke into laughter, “But I see the two of you walking together a lot.”

Yu Jia Xing’s eyebrows furrowed together seriously, “That’s not familiar either.”

Yu Yao finally couldn’t help but laugh out loud, Yu Jia Xing listened to her laugh expressionlessly and waited until she was almost done before saying: “Jing Fu Yuan just told me that you are his cousin.”

Yu Yao’s laughter came to an abrupt halt.

“He told me about you before.” Yu Jia Xing added, “But I forgot.”

Yu Yao blinked her eyes, “I have a weak presence, oh?”

“Not really.” Yu Jia Xing lowered his head as if he was reminiscing, “At that time, he was the only thing on my mind, and I couldn’t remember anything else.”

Yu Yao was coldly stuffed with a mouthful of dog food, pulling the corners of her mouth to sit next to Yu Jia Xing, “You like my cousin a lot?”

Probably because she knew that Yu Yao was a relative of Jing Fu Yuan’s, Yu Jia Xing’s attitude was much gentler and less distant, and he meekly said ‘en’.

Yu Yao looked at him sideways. Yu Jia Xing’s eyelashes were very dense and long, his eyes were light in colour, and every time he blinked, it made people’s heart tremble. She suddenly understood why her cousin cherished him so much, letting her pester him for so long before he told her who the person he was dating was.

Yu Jia Xing was so cute. If she wasn’t afraid that her cousin would rip her skin off, she would have pursued him.

Yu Yao had actually noticed Yu Jia Xing last term. Her cousin always walked with him, helped him tie his shoelaces, tore the paper skin off his cone, and even ate a cone with him. But she never thought her cousin would like a man.

Yu Yao pouted, thinking that men were also actually quite good, these two stood well together and the most important thing was that they liked each other.

Yu Yao suddenly envied her cousin, being so happy with the person he liked, she wanted to fall in love too.

As soon as Jing Fu Yuan reached the door of the classroom, Yu Jia Xing looked up at the door as if he had a sense.

When she received a warning look from Jing Fu Yuan, Yu Yao bristled with indignation.

Yu Jia Xing was about to stand up with his hand on his desk, but then suddenly sat down and turned his head to ask Yu Yao: “Is he here to see you?”

Yu Yao seemed to see Yu Jia Xing’s erected rabbit ears slowly drooping down, which made her feel so cute that she got a bad idea and replied: “I don’t know ah.”

Yu Jia Xing hesitated a little, his feet toeing the ground, he wanted to go to Jing Fu Yuan, but was afraid that Jing Fu Yuan was not here for him.

Luckily, Jing Fu Yuan came over and stopped in front of him.

“Having a nice chat with her, and pretending not to see me when you see me?” Jing Fu Yuan knew this cousin of his would not behave well, and he slightly regretted telling her about Yu Jia Xing.

Yu Jia Xing tilted his head to look at him, and Jing Fu Yuan raised his hand to scrap the bridge of his nose.

Oh, so he really came to see him.

Yu Jia Xing covered his nose, and while his expression couldn’t be seen from Jing Fu Yuan’s angle, Yu Yao could see it.

He was smiling, pursing his lips in a sneaky smile, his eyes slightly curved like they were filled with sunlight.

How could this boy be so cute.

Yu Yao wanted to cover her heart and cry, such a cute boy had actually followed her cousin.

She looked up at Jing Fu Yuan and felt that her cousin had no merits besides his face.

Jing Fu Yuan’s attitude towards outsiders was always cold, polite and cultured but not close. Yu Yao had even been frightened by him when she was a child and cried.

However, she had to admit that Jing Fu Yuan treated Yu Jia Xing very gently, especially gentle, would laugh and be jealous, and like every qualified boyfriend, he would single-mindedly protect the person he liked.

These two were just right together.

He liked him, and he liked him too.

Back at the flat in the evening, Jing Fu Yuan asked Yu Jia Xing: “Like Yu Yao a lot?”

“En?……En.” Yu Jia Xing nodded hesitantly, and Jing Fu Yuan immediately raised his hand to rub his hair messily.

“Still like?”

Yu Jia Xing shook his head with messy hair.

“En, it’s enough to like me alone.”

Yu Jia Xing asked: “Doesn’t your cousin object?”

“What?”

“I’m a male.”

“I’m a male too.” Jing Fu Yuan stroked his messy hair, “Not allowed to dislike me.”

 “Dislike?” Yu Jia Xing repeated and then shook his head seriously, “I don’t even have enough time to like you.” He lifted his head after saying that, his eyes shining brightly.

Yu Jia Xing wasn’t very good at saying sweet things, so everything he said was from his heart.

Jing Fu Yuan never felt that he could speak love words because he only ever said these to Yu Jia Xing.

The words spoken by the person he likes, with a little modification, are all called words of love.

After all, he liked him, and listening to everything he said was like listening to words of love.
