There was an indescribable silence in the hallway.

As soon as the words came out, Cheng Zhou realized that something was wrong. He looked away a little embarrassed: "Uh, sorry, it's me who didn't talk anymore. ”

"It's okay." Jiang Jian shook his head, his tone was very helpless, "After all, ...... last night"

Cheng Zhou glanced at the young man again, and the other party's face looked even redder, on the other hand, the lips that looked very ruddy last night were a little dry and pale at this time.

"Are you sick?" Cheng Zhou frowned slightly, "It's because of ...... What happened last night? ”

"It has a little bit to do with it." Jiang Jin snorted, "But it's not serious, it's just a little low-grade fever." ”

Cheng Zhou lowered his eyes to look at him.

The boy is actually not short, he is nearly 1.8 meters tall, but this height is not enough in front of him.

From Cheng Zhou's point of view, the boy looked thinner and even a little petite.

The young man's expression was peaceful, but there was some weakness and exhaustion between his eyebrows and eyes, and he was a little shaky just standing up, as if he would not be able to stand and fall down in the next second.

Teenage body ...... It doesn't seem good.

Jiang Jin smiled at him: "I haven't asked you what your name is, my name is Jiang Jin." ”

"Cheng Zhou." Cheng Zhou said, "I know your name is Jiang Tang. ”

The name 'ginger candy' is really easy to remember.

At least Cheng Zhou has not forgotten it until now after listening to it once.

"Cheng Zhou." Jiang Jian repeated in a low voice, as if to deepen his impression of his name, "What I mentioned just now...... Can you please think about it again? ”

Cheng Zhou did not directly refuse: "Can you ask, why did you move out of the original dormitory?" ”

"It's my personal reason, I'm gay." Jiang Yao's face was hesitant, but he didn't hide it, "My sexuality ...... I didn't fit into the same room as the other boys, which wasn't good for them. ”

Cheng Zhou was stunned, and suddenly frowned: "You have been excluded?" Do they violence you in the dormitory? ”

"No, no." Jiang Jian waved his hand again and again, "It's just inconvenient, it's better to avoid suspicion, the double bedroom is a separate room, it will be more suitable for me." ”

Cheng Zhou's frowning brows relaxed.

Although he does not like homosexuality, it does not mean that he is prejudiced against this group.

Dislike is just his personal emotional bias, and he will not bring these emotions to other people, let alone do anything irrational because of this.

And to be honest, after getting along for a few short times, Cheng Zhou still likes the young man in front of him.

Humility, gentleness and courtesy, doing things in a measured manner, is a very good temperament.

If this is the person, it should not have much impact on his life if he does not live in the same room.

Cheng Zhou fell into thought.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Jiang Jin sighed lightly and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't agree, I'll think of other ways, you don't have to force yourself." ”

…… It's okay not to agree, don't force yourself.

This sentence hit Cheng Zhou's heart hard.

His sister Cheng Cheng also said something like this.

When Cheng Cheng is very sick, occasionally

Make some quirky little requests.

Once Cheng Cheng had a whim, he wanted Cheng Zhou to wear a funny cartoon costume and play her favorite cartoon character to make her happy.

Cheng Zhou teased her, jokingly showing a very reluctant expression.

At that time, Cheng Cheng said very intimately: "It doesn't matter if my brother doesn't want to, don't force yourself, don't be unhappy, Orange doesn't want to see my brother embarrassed." ()”

“——↑()”

Cheng Zhou closed his eyes, "If I don't agree, what else can you do?" ”

Jiang Jian hesitated for a moment and said, "A little farther away from the school, there is also a rental house near Qinpu Road, which will be cheaper than near the school." ”

Cheng Zhou knew about Qinpu Road.

The area is relatively remote, already close to the suburbs of the city, there is no subway, only buses, and it takes at least an hour to get to the school by changing trains.

It is true that the rental price there is much cheaper than near the school, but the environment is also more chaotic and worse, and the security is said to be very poor.

Cheng Zhou suddenly thought of the scene when he first saw 'Ginger Candy'.

The boy was blocked in a dim alley by a lewd man with a big waist and a round waist, if he hadn't happened to pass by, so that the boy found an opportunity to give the lewd man a brick, the other party might have encountered something.

If it was the rough men in the team that Cheng Zhou knew who were taller than the other who proposed to rent a house near Qinpu Road, Cheng Zhou would definitely not think much about it and would not stop it.

But if it's 'ginger candy'......

Cheng Zhou lowered his eyes and glanced at the young man, the side of the other party's pale face was light red because of low-grade fever, and his moist peach eyes were also a little misty and out of focus.

Like a soft and harmless little animal, it is very easy to bully at first glance.

Just let him go to that messy place to rent a house alone, Cheng Zhou was really worried that something would happen to the other party.

Cheng Zhou sighed in his heart.

If Orange Orange is still there, when he hears such a request, he will definitely wrinkle his little face and say, "This brother is so pitiful, brother, can we help him?" ”

Even though he is still sick, he has to take hard medicine every day, and his life is not happy at all, but he is still easy to empathize with others and want to lend a helping hand to others.

Orange Orange is such a kind child.

Thinking of his sister, Cheng Zhou closed his eyes again, and a soft color flashed between his sharp eyebrows.

Just do a good deed for his sister, he thought to himself.

Anyway, he's already helped 'Ginger Candy' once, and it doesn't seem like much to help again.

Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Jiang Jin pursed his lips and said, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble, I-"

His words were interrupted by Cheng Zhou: "When do you plan to move out?" ”

The young man burned his head a little dazed, and he didn't seem to have reacted to Cheng Zhou's meaning: "Of course, the sooner the better, when I find a house, I will move out of the current dormitory immediately......"

"Another room in this dorm room, I haven't used it all the time." Cheng Zhou said, "I didn't put anything in the room, but the common living room was a little messy." If you're in a hurry, you can move in tonight

() Come and stay. ”

Jiang Yu blinked slowly, and finally understood what Cheng Zhou meant.

He was pleasantly surprised: "I—I'll stay tonight, is that okay?" ”

He paused, a little embarrassed, "Isn't it going to be too fast......

Cheng Zhou didn't answer his question, but turned around and walked outside the dormitory and said, "Let's go." ”

Jiang Jin subconsciously followed him: "Where are you going?" ”

"Go to your dorm." Cheng Zhou said, "Didn't you say you would move tonight?" Can you move it alone? ”

"I don't have much." Jiang said, "Just a few clothes and some textbooks. ”

"Okay, then pack it all up and bring it over." Cheng Zhou said.

Jiang Jin hurriedly said: "I can do it alone, take a few more trips, don't bother you." ”

"What's not troublesome." Cheng Zhou's tone was impatient, "You still have a fever, and when you finish moving slowly, the dormitory will be locked." ”

Cheng Zhou is tall and has long legs, and he walks far away as soon as he takes a step, and Jiang Jin can only speed up his pace to keep up with him.

Cheng Zhou took two steps, noticed that the people around him seemed to be struggling to walk, and then suddenly slowed down as if he thought of something.

The same goes for Orange Orange, he thought.

The little short leg obviously can't walk fast, but he still likes to follow him, and he can't stop panting when he walks.

Jiang Jian took a breath, and his tone was extremely sincere: "Cheng Zhou, thank you." ”

Cheng Zhou waved his hand: "It's okay." ”

Then he paused, "Where is your dormitory?" ”

"Walking so fast, I thought you knew." Jiang Yao sneered, "I'll lead the way." ”

The dormitory areas of the quadruple and double rooms are adjacent to each other, separated by a separate wall, and there is a wall more than two meters high outside the entire dormitory, which divides the dormitory area separately.

When Jiang Jin and Cheng Zhou arrived at his previous dormitory, they happened to meet three roommates who had just returned from dinner.

The three of them walked side by side, talking and laughing, and they looked like very good friends.

And when he saw Jiang Jin, who was standing at the door of the dormitory and was about to open the door, the voice of the person who saw him first stopped abruptly, and the smile on his face faded.

The other person hadn't noticed Jiang Yao yet, and asked with a grin: "What's the matter, the third child?" ”

The third child smacked him with his elbow, and raised his chin lightly to indicate the direction of the dormitory door.

The other two people also noticed Jiang Jin, and immediately stopped talking.

Jiang Jin was bowing his head to open the door, and he didn't seem to notice this scene, but Cheng Zhou, who was standing behind him, could see it clearly.

He frowned, glanced at the boy who seemed to be completely unaffected, opened and closed his mouth, and didn't say anything.

After a click, the dormitory door opened.

"Cheng Zhou......" Jiang Jian turned around to call someone, and then noticed the three people standing not far from them, "Ah, you are back." ”

The third of the three took over: "Well, what a coincidence." ”

The tone was a little detached, as if they had only known each other for a short time, not roommates who had been living in a dormitory for a year.

The intimate atmosphere of the three-person room just now is in stark contrast to the cold atmosphere now.

The third child glanced at the tall young man behind Jiang Jin, hesitated for two seconds and asked, "Is this ...... Is your boyfriend? ”

The other two frowned,

One of them said bluntly: "Jiang Yao,

You're not right, you said you weren't allowed to bring your boyfriend to the dormitory, why now-"

"No, no, no!" Jiang Jian hurriedly explained, "He's just here to help me move the bedroom, not my boyfriend, he's a straight man, don't worry." ”

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

The third child grasped the key point in Jiang Yao's words: "Move the bedroom? You don't live here? ”

"Well, I've already agreed with the counselor, I'll move to a double bedroom tonight." Jiang Jin said.

Three of you, look at me, I'll look at you, one of them muttered in a low voice, "It should have been ...... a long time ago"

Before he finished speaking, he was knocked out, and the third child lowered his voice and said, "Don't say it." ”

The man pouted and stopped talking.

&nb

sp; Jiang Jin seemed to be unaware of the dark tide surging between the three of them, and he smiled apologetically at Cheng Zhou and said, "Can you wait for me at the door?" I've basically packed up my things, I just need to put away the quilt on the bed. ”

Cheng Zhou nodded and said, "Okay." ”

He leaned to the side and moved out of the way in front of the dormitory door. After Jiang Jin entered the dormitory, the three people also came over one after another.

The person who walked at the end didn't rush into the dormitory, but looked up at Cheng Zhou, lowered his voice and asked, "Brother, are you from the gymnasium next door?" ”

Cheng Zhou snorted.

The man said, "You're his next roommate, right?" I don't know if he told you or not, he's gay, and if you live with him in the future, it's best not to have too much contact with him. ”

"He said it, and I know it." Cheng Zhou said, "However, the rooms in the double dormitory are independent, so there is nothing to worry about." ”

The man patted Cheng Zhou's arm, as if relieved that he had listened to his words.

"But it just so happens that I have something I want to know from you." Cheng Zhou said again, "Did he do anything out of the ordinary to you before?" ”

The man was stunned: "Out of line? That's, that's not ......."

"None? That's fine. Cheng Zhou said, "I'm a straight man, he's gay, we have different sexualities, what's there to be afraid of?" ”

"I saw that you were avoiding him like this, and I thought he was some kind of flood beast." He snorted, "What's wrong with homosexuality?" Isn't it also a normal person? Making friends is not about falling in love, do you care if he likes men or women, and if you don't like you, are you still afraid? ”

Cheng Zhou had no intention of lowering his voice, and his words sounded yin and yang, which made the man stunned.

"I'm not afraid of crooked shadows, I'm a straight man, I'm not afraid, you're so afraid, are you afraid of being bent?" Cheng Zhou's tone was light, "It's not like that, if you can really be bent, it means that you are not a straight man, just a deep cabinet." ”

"What's more......" Cheng Zhou glanced at him up and down, "gay just likes men, and it's not taboo, if it's a man, you like it, and you have to pick and choose when you find a boyfriend, right?" ”

The man was choked by Cheng Zhou's words, his chest was shook, fire burst out of his stomach, and he lowered his voice and said angrily: "I'm doing this for your good!" ”

"Teach me to discriminate for my own good? It's 2023, brother, the long braids haven't been shaved yet? Cheng Zhou snorted lightly, "Do you need me to buy you a pair of scissors?" ”

The man's face was pale and pale, and he wanted to quarrel with Cheng Zhou in anger, but when he saw that Cheng Zhou was tall and strong, he was exposed

The outer arm line was strong and tight, and he was terrified.

I can't beat it, I can't scold it, what else can I do?

The man snorted heavily and walked into the bedroom, scolding himself for being nosy. But in addition to the annoyance and shame of being unable to speak, he also felt a little weak.

Why can't you say anything?

Because he knew that what Cheng Zhou said was right.

The three people in the dormitory all heard Cheng Zhou's words, and now they are all sitting at their respective tables, but they are all secretly paying attention to Jiang Jin, who is collecting things on the bed.

Recalling the previous relationship, Jiang Jin really never did anything to them, and even took the initiative to draw the line between him and them.

In fact...... Jiang Jiao is very good.

On the contrary, they say that they will not engage in dormitory exclusion, but in fact they have gone too far beyond anyone else.

Jiang Jin on the bed seemed to be unaware of the small quarrel just now.

Jiang Jin really didn't have many things, when there was no class in the afternoon, he had already put his clothes, textbooks and painting tools into his suitcase when there was no one in the dormitory, and now he only needed to roll up the bed and carry it out.

But I don't know if it's because of the fever, or if this body is already relatively weak, Jiang Jin rolled up the quilt and climbed down from the top bunk, his eyes suddenly turned a little black.

He subconsciously clung to the stairs so that he didn't slip to the ground.

Cheng Zhou's vision was blocked by the dormitory door, and he didn't see this scene, but the three people in the dormitory who secretly paid attention to Jiang Jin found out.

The third child hesitated for two seconds, but still asked, "Jiang Jin, are you okay?" ”

Jiang Yao slowed down, and after slowly climbing down, he said, "It's okay." ”

Cheng Zhou, who heard the voice, probed in from outside the door, and his eyes fell on the young man's face, which was even more red, and he felt that his state seemed to be a little wrong.

"Excuse me." As he spoke, he stepped into the dormitory, raised his hand without saying a word, and gently touched the boy's head with the back of his hand.

"It's hot." Cheng Zhou frowned fiercely, "You don't just have a low-grade fever, right?" ”

Jiang Jian sighed, his reaction was a little sluggish, and he was weak and weak to speak: "It's okay, I'll go back to the dormitory and take some medicine and take a rest." ”

He said as he lifted his arm to take the futon down in a large ball.

The other, longer, more powerful arms were one step ahead of him.

Cheng Zhou's long arm stretched out and took off the heavy quilt cover, and stuffed the futon into the storage bag three times and two times.

He pointed to the two small bags and two large suitcases next to him and asked, "These are yours?" ”

Jiang Jin nodded, and was about to pull the suitcase, but was once again preempted by Cheng Zhou.

Cheng Zhou pulled out the levers of the two suitcases and stuck several storage bags on the suitcases: "Is there anything else?" ”

"There is another ......" Jiang Jian said slowly, opened the wardrobe door on the side, and took out a small storage bag from inside.

The third child on the side couldn't sit still, so he quickly got up and said, "I'll help too, give me a box." ”

The other two were already a little reluctant to go, and when they saw this, they also stepped forward to help.

Cheng Zhou didn't give them a chance.

He has a lot of strength, even if there is a huge storage bag tied to the big suitcase, he can easily carry it one by one without any difficulty.

The last one

A large storage bag was slung over his shoulder.

Jiang Jin noticed that the muscles of his two exposed arms bulged, and he looked extremely powerful.

He blinked slowly, and said in his heart that the lover of his life looked extraordinarily powerful, well, powerful in every way.

"Alright, let's go. ()”

“⒃()_[(()”

Cheng Zhou said, "You still have a fever, in case you are given a box, you fall yourself, I have to carry someone back, it will be heavier and more troublesome." ”

It's the awkward care of straight men.

Jiang Yao pursed her lips and covered the corners of her mouth that were unconsciously upturned.

The three people who couldn't help looked at each other, they were all studying art, and they couldn't compare to the strong physique of sports students, and after being rejected by Cheng Zhou, they really couldn't find an excuse to continue to help.

They're more like the wave of people who don't do the job.

Cheng Zhou's body was almost full of luggage, and when he walked in front, his back looked like a walking shelf.

Jiang Jin's four-room dormitory was on the fourth floor, there was no elevator, Cheng Zhou carried these things down the stairs with his luggage, and he didn't even catch his breath.

The physical fitness of sports students can be seen.

On the way to the new bedroom, Cheng Zhou suddenly spoke: "When you explained to them just now, you said that I was a straight man?" ”

Jiang Yu tilted his head slightly, as if he didn't know why he suddenly asked this.

Cheng Zhou asked, "How do you know I'm a straight man?" ”

"I'm not sure if you're not." Jiang Jin said, "But at that time, only by saying that you are a straight man can you solve their misunderstanding as quickly as possible." ”

He pursed the corners of his lower lip, and his voice sounded a little soft and weak, "It's easy to make people think you're gay, but if you're mistaken for gay, it's hard to explain that you're not." ”

"You've helped me so much, and I don't want you to get criticized for me." Jiang Jian said softly, "That's not something you should bear, so whether you are a straight man or not, just say that you are at that time." ”

Cheng Zhou glanced at him sideways.

I don't know if it's because of the burning even more, the young man's fair face is even redder, and even the tails of his eyes are dyed with a thin red, with a faint mist in his eyes, which looks like he has cried.

A breeze blew, and the boy shrank his neck, and the soft hairs on his delicate skin floated.

Cheng Zhou's heart moved slightly.

From today's interaction between 'Jiang Tang' and his roommate, he can see that the other party's life is not as easy as he said.

Because you've been in the rain, don't you want to see others get wet in the rain?

"Actually, there is no need to explain too much about this kind of thing." Cheng Zhou said, "The person who wants to pour dirty water on you, no matter how you explain it, he can find or even make up new loopholes, and then continue to attack you." ”

"Don't fall into the trap of self-proof." He said, "If you can't explain something, you throw it back and let them come up with stronger evidence to prove the truth of what he said." ”①

Cheng Zhou's voice was very steady, but it seemed to hide some kind of power: "If he can't produce evidence, it's slander." You can sue them, this kind of thing is allowed, and they are the ones who should be afraid. ”

river

() Jin was stunned, then smiled and said, "Well, I know, thank you." ”

"However, it is true that I am gay, and they have not slandered me."

Jiang Yao paused, and his voice sounded quieter, "You...... Do you really not mind this? ”

"If you mind, I wouldn't agree to you moving in." Cheng Zhou said, "I'll be honest with you, for some reason I don't like homosexuality very much, but it's my business that I don't like, and it has nothing to do with you." ”

"Homosexuality is just ordinary people, just different in sexual orientation," he said. You don't have to worry about it, if someone looks at you coldly, points fingers at you or even accuses you of discriminating against you, it's their fault, not your problem. ”

Jiang Yao turned his head to look at him, his eyes lit up slightly: "You...... Is that really what you think? ”

"Of course." Cheng Zhou said, "I'm a straight man, I don't like you, I won't chase you, there's no need to say something fake to please you." ”

"yes, I see." Jiang Jin suddenly smiled, "I'm very happy, thank you." ”

Cheng Zhou wanted to wave his hand and say that it was okay, but suddenly realized that he was full of things and had no way to wave his hand.

How many times has 'Ginger Candy' said thank you to him?

Cheng Zhou can't remember clearly, but there must have been a lot of times.

He's getting used to waving his hands.

233 endured and endured, but didn't hold back: [Host, is the target of this mission really a straight man? These words don't look like straight men can say them, do they? 】

Jiang Jin smiled and did not speak.

Regardless of whether Cheng Zhou is really straight or not......

Anyway, after listening to him say these words, Jiang Jin only had one idea now.

His lover is Tai Cool Spicy.

it!
