single stab

Jiang Xueping was lying on the bed without sleepiness, Ke Shuo was leaning on the bedside to play with his mobile phone, the glistening light from one screen illuminated his pale face with mask on.

"Ke Shuo."

Jiang Xue's sudden opening made Ke Shuo almost throw away his phone in fright, he said angrily.

"Why did you call me all of a sudden! You scared me to death."

Jiang Xue was silent for a while, then asked in a low voice.

"Are you having a good time?"

Ke Shuo turned his head to look at him suspiciously, only Jiang Xue's vague outline could be seen in the darkness, he hesitated, and said in a nasty voice.

"Suddenly you care about me so much, what on earth do you want?"

"Mom and uncle don't know that you like boys."

Ke Shuo was taken aback, his eyes widened in disbelief.

"You want to threaten me!"

Jiang Xue shook his head, but he couldn't make this movement while lying down, so he also sat up, leaning against the head of the bed, his deep eyes melting into the pervasive darkness.

"What I mean is, don't you ever marry girls all your life? Mom and uncle will be very sad if they find out."

Ke Shuo was stunned, with panic and confusion on his face, the phone's light was flickering on and off, but he had no intention of replying to Xie Meng, as if a boulder that had been deliberately ignored for a long time was blocked in front of him and forced him to go. Face it.

"You... why do you care about me! Take care of yourself before you talk!"

He was furious as if he was trying to fool the past clumsily, but his low tone could tell that he was already thinking about this headache.

"...It's the 21st century now. My parents' ideas should not be so outdated, and they love me so much, they won't be angry. Why do I have to marry a girl?"

His voice of lack of confidence became smaller and smaller, and he tore off the mask on his face angrily to make his speech smoother. His slightly panicked and helpless tone seemed to be tentatively seeking help from Jiang Xue, but he was still dead. The pride that supports the boy's heart and refuses to let go of his face.

"Anyway, anyway, I can't change it, and it's not that I want to like boys."

Jiang Xue seemed to think about his words very seriously, and after pondering for a moment, she asked curiously and hesitantly.

"How do you know you like boys, haven't you tried with girls?"

"How do I know! It was just that once I accidentally bumped into a boy. When I looked up at him, I found my heart was beating very fast, as if I was in love. Later, I couldn't help but secretly observe him and rub my presence in front of him." Feeling, and later... I confessed to him. "

"and then?"

Ke Shuo tilted his head, lost in the memories of that time, and even his distressed tone softened, with sweet joy.

"Then we secretly got together. He was a natural companion, one year older than me, and taught me a lot of knowledge in that area. I slowly realized that I seemed to be the same kind of person as him. What kind of girl They don’t even call, but they like to look at tall, sunny boys.”

Jiang Xue seemed to have followed him into that ignorant and youthful age, and her questioning voice was very soft, for fear of breaking this beautiful beginning.

"Then why did you break up with him?"

Ke Shuo paused, his stagnant tone became nonchalant, and he laughed at himself.

"There's no reason, it's just that he got tired of playing with me and found a new boyfriend, but I have to thank him for opening the door to a new world for me."

Jiang Xue listened quietly, without continuing to ask.

But Ke Shuo started talking and couldn't stop. He fiddled with the pendant on his phone and said in a brisk tone.

"Afterwards, it's nothing. If you meet someone you like, you stay together, and when you get bored, you leave. People like us have a hard life. Why do we have to pay attention to being together? Forever and forever, life is too short. It's time to have fun!"

Jiang Xue was amused by his disillusioned tone.

"You've been thinking about it since you were young."

Ke Shuo shrugged.

"You are older than me, and now you are in this circle, do you believe that two men will really be together for a long time?"

He didn't pay attention to Jiang Xue who was stunned, and continued to imagine the future with great interest.

"I don't know what will happen in the future, anyway, now I just want to sleep with all the handsome little Gongs, and then when I get older and become ugly, I will go home and take care of my parents with peace of mind. I will marry a girl, it is enough for my parents to support me!"

He shook his head and chattered, suddenly remembered that he was beside him with his half-brother, and scratched his head belatedly.

"Oh yes, there is also you, uh... you like girls, then after you and Brother Li separate, find a sister-in-law to carry on the family line for our family! Hahahaha!"

Jiang Xue couldn't help but also smiled, and poked his forehead with her index finger.

"I can't see that you are the leader who plans the overall situation."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly froze. He didn't know how he would naturally make such an intimate gesture towards Ke Shuo, who he was obviously unfamiliar with and didn't like. It really seemed like two brothers who loved each other.

Ke Shuo didn't notice his momentary embarrassment, pouted his lips and poked his forehead, and said confidently.

"That's right! I'm the one who will do great things in the future! Hmph!"

He yawned and shrank into the bed, muttering in a daze.

"I thought you were aloof, but you are also sentimental and long-winded like your mother. Hurry up and sleep, I'm almost sleepy."

He turned over and buried himself in the pillow, and after a while, he heard the sound of steady and long breathing.

Jiang Xue stayed in the dark for a while, and when she got into the quilt, she found that Ke Shuo had kicked the quilt away. He hesitated for a moment, and pulled the quilt up strangely, covering Ke Shuo tightly.

After a whim of chatting and self-discovery, the relationship between Jiang Xue and his family became much more harmonious. He would awkwardly tell Jiang’s mother that he wanted to eat steamed fish, and he would chat with Ke’s father about some hot news and exchange ideas with each other. He will also take Yuan Peipei and Ke Shuo out for shopping, always acting as a mediator between the two.

Jiang's mother saw his change in her eyes and warmed her heart. She was overwhelmed with joy and secretly wiped away happy tears several times. I have three children, and I smile from ear to ear every day.

On February 3th, Jiang Xue checked the results, No.[-] in the first test.

The school he applied for was in a southern province, and it ranked first in his major, but the distance was so long that it took seven hours to take the high-speed rail.

Jiang's mother and Ke's father didn't know anything about the postgraduate entrance examination, so Jiang Xue explained briefly. After Jiang's mother learned of his excellent grades, she used the excuse of celebration to cook a table full of delicious dishes, and she also called on Ke Shuo to ask Jiang snow study.

Ke Shuo silently rolled his eyes at Jiang Xue, saying "You'll die if you don't put so much pressure on me" all over his face.

Jiang Xue shrugged at him, with an angry look of "I can't do anything about being so good".

Ke Shuo angrily stopped looking at him, and chewed the meat with his bulging cheeks, as if he wanted to eat this celebration feast as his own before he was willing.

After the relationship eased, Jiang Xue discovered that his younger brother was actually not as bad as he imagined. He seemed to have a bad temper and a poisonous mouth, but he was actually quite soft-hearted.
