Everyone Thinks that I Like Him

Chapter 67



One might ask: what should the mood be like after the brothers buried the hatchet?

Was it joyously reminiscing on the past or was it exuberantly looking forward to the future?

No! Neither!

When Ye Zhous heart was at its weakest, Ye Heng suddenly said what he was most concerned about, making him unable to reflect on it at all!

Ye Zhou took a sip of coffee and pretended to ask carelessly, What about Shang Jin?

While on the road, everyone we met asked you about Shang Jin. You two arent ordinary friends, right?

Ye Zhous eyelid twitched. Hed specifically not let Shang Jin come over because he was afraid that their relationship would be exposed. But now, his brother hadnt seen Shang Jin, so how did he begin to suspect? This was unscientific!

He carefully organized his words, Our relationshipis pretty good.

Ye Heng looked at his expression and probed, So good that you can live together?

Ye Zhou was so scared that he couldnt hold his spoon and accidentally dropped it in the coffee cup. He hadnt drank much coffee and a few drops splashed on his hand.

Originally, Ye Heng was just bluffing him and wasnt expecting Ye Zhou to have such a big reaction. Understanding clearly in his mind, he took out a napkin and cleaned the coffee on Ye Zhous hand, rebuking him, Youre so careless when drinking coffee.

Ye Zhou with a deathly pale face didnt understand where hed been exposed.

Ye Heng sighed and said, I understand that theres extremely good friends in the university who become like Siamese twins. But whats so taboo about it?

Ye Zhou vainly wanted to make a final struggle, Wewere just

If you and Shang Jin are ordinary good brothers, your roommates wouldnt have to help you to cover up once they heard that I was your brother, Ye Heng interrupted him, laying down his conjecture point by point, In the entire dorm room, theres minimal differences between your desk and the one across from it, which are in sharp contrast with the brimming tables on the side. And when you went back to the dorm today, there was a chair next to me, but you took two more steps and very familiarly pulled out the chair across from you, subconsciously going to the thing that youre close to. If Im not mistaken, the opposite desk should be Shang Jins, right?

Ye Zhou in thousands, or tens of thousands of calculation, wouldnt have been able to figure out that Ye Heng would have been able to see through the secret he wanted to conceal from these small details.

Ye Zhou took a quick look at Ye Heng and felt like his heart was in a mess. He wasnt sure what Ye Hengs purpose was in saying this, and what he would do next.

Why do you look like the worlds about to be destroyed? Ye Heng chuckled lightly, Do I look like such an unreasonable person?

Ye Zhou looked at him in uncertainty, not daring to speak. He hadnt spoken two sentences before hed exposed himself thoroughly. Now, he didnt dare to say anymore and acted like a mute.

Youre not going to explain to me?

Ye Zhou lowered his head and looked at the tranquil surface of the coffee. Resigning himself, he said, Theres nothing to explain.

Zhou Zhou, were you born so, or was it

Its my own issue, Ye Zhou hurriedly said, I knew from early on that I was different from others.

Ye Heng sighed in relief, looked fondly at Ye Zhou and said, For so many years, its been hard on you.

Ye Zhou shook his head and replied, At first, I thought this road was very difficult, but now, its not so. I have someone I like and friends who understand me Ye Zhou held Ye Heng gaze and said, And my brother. Im very fortunate.

Hearing Ye Zhou added him at the end, Ye Hengs originally suppressed breath loosened. But for Ye Zhou to say that he liked someone, Ye Heng still couldnt let it go. He looked at the time and said, Running around for a day, Im a bit tired.

Ye Zhou breathed a silent sigh of relief and said, I booked a hotel. Ill take brother there to rest first.

When did you book it?

Ye Zhou wanted to increase the favorable impression for Shang Jin in advance, so he gave him credit for it. On the way here, I casually mentioned it to Shang Jin and he booked a good hotel. Its not far from the school.

Ye Heng stopped his steps. What to do? He suddenly didnt want to go.

Brother?

Ye Heng glanced at his adorable younger brother, and lest he be disappointed, forced a laugh and went with him to the hotel.

Although he didnt like Shang Jin whom hed not met yet, but arriving at the hotel the other had booked, he had to praise that the other really knew how to choose the place.

Both comfortable and with convenient transportation, he could also enjoy the citys night view from the French windows of the high-rise hotel.

It was just this double bed that made him irritated. If he had a suite, he would be able to get his younger brother to stay with him for the night.

Ye Zhou accompanied him to dinner and they strolled around the neighborhood. At nine oclock, he proposed to leave.

Brother, what are your plans for tomorrow? Ye Zhou hadnt forgotten that Ye Heng said he came here for work.

Ill be a bit busy at the branch office tomorrow. But even so, I must meet Shang Jin before I leave. Ye Hengs tone would brook no refusal. You guys decide the time and place.

Ye Zhou said in a low voice, Then Ill talk to him tonight

How could he agree without getting Shang Jins consent! Although he wanted to refuse such a thing, but he also couldnt refuse.

On the way back, Ye Zhou kept sighing. This days experience was almost like a rollercoaster. He felt his mood go up one moment and down the next. Whenever he thought it was safe, his brother would let loose a bomb and blow his brain blank. And Shang Jinhow could he persuade Shang Jin to meet his brother in a moment? Obviously if hed spoken well, then there wouldnt have been the need to come of the closet, but the result turned out to the contrary.

Ye Zhou called Shang Jin and learned that Shang Jin had already arrived at school. He carefully and apologetically told him to come back home.

This day hadnt only tormented him, but itd also tossed Shang Jin around not lightly.

Shang Jin didnt pay any mind. Ye Zhou told him to go back, and he agreed without any objections.

Then Ye Zhou slowly leaned against Shang Jin and kissed him. Can we discuss a matter?

Shang Jin asked, Is it keeping a distance from you tomorrow?

Itd be good if it were that, Ye Zhou said sullenly, Its more serious.

Shang Jin thought for a moment and said, Your brother discovered our matter?

Ye Zhou said in astonishment, How did you know?

Guessed.

Ye Zhou furiously said, You guys, one and the other, how can you guess so accurately!

How did your brother find out?

Ye Zhou reluctantly repeated Ye Hengs remarks to Shang Jin. You say, how can he guess so accurately?

Shang Jin flicked Ye Zhous forehead and said, How can this be called accurate guessing? Obviously, youre too easy to see through. Its written on your face that you and I have a hidden relationship.

Ye Zhou smacked Shang Jins head, Is now the time to blame me? My brother wants to see you tomorrow. What do we do!

Then just meet. Its sooner or later. If we meet sooner, I can also build up a good relationship with him in advance.

Ye Zhou failed to understand.

Shang Jin mysteriously smiled, At home, your brother has great influence, right?

Ye Zhou blinked and said, Yeah, my parents really care about my brothers opinion.

Coming out of the closet, you need to find an ally. Shang Jin seized Ye Zhous shoulders and said, Isnt this a ready-made one?

Ye Zhou suddenly felt that he couldnt surpass Shang Jin in his entire life. When he was nervous and overwhelmed, Shang Jin actually had already considered it so far ahead.

The next afternoon after school, Shang Jin and Ye Zhou met in the hotel restaurant downstairs from where Ye Heng was staying.

Zhou Zhou, Ye Heng waved to them.

Brother. Ye Zhou was going to sit opposite to Ye Heng with Shang Jin, but who knew that he hadnt sat down yet when Shang Jin gave him a push to sit by Ye Hengs side.

Shang Jin sat across from them alone and faced Ye Heng, neither haughty nor servile. He said politely and amiably, Big Brother Ye, weve finally met.

Ye Heng evaluated Shang Jin in a glance. He didnt expect that Shang Jin would push Ye Zhou toward him. His dissatisfaction with him had gradually lessened to seventy percent.

Shang Jin swept Ye Heng with his peripheral vision and confirmed his guess.

The time was limited and Ye Heng didnt feel like exchanging pleasantries. He directly asked what he wanted to ask, Shang Jin, where are you from?

Im a local. Shang Jin picked up the herbal tea on the table and helped fill their cups. The movement was elegant and smooth and it looked like he was used to doing such things. My family is a reorganized family. I followed my father and I have two younger siblings.

Ye Heng first frowned, and when he heard the last word, his eyebrows smoothed out again. Then you and Ye Zhou

When I just got together with him, I told my biological mother, who told my father and basically, everyone in the family knows.

I heard that you have outstanding results and your future is limitless. Your family would let you stray on the wrong path?

How is it the wrong path? Shang Jin asked a question in response, Big Brother Ye, do you think that Ye Zhou is now walking on the wrong path?

Ye Heng looked at Ye Zhou and hastily explained, Of course not. Zhou Zhou, thiswas my negligence.

Shang Jin raised the cup and took a sip of tea. My family is somewhat special. Perhaps because of this unusual nature, I dont have much sense of belonging with my family. With Ye Zhou, I saw something like me.

Shang Jin didnt say exactly what it was, but Ye Heng understood that it was the longing for a family.

His younger brother clearly had a home, but he didnt feel the warmth of a home, similar to Shang Jins reorganized family. Ye Heng looked tenderly at Ye Zhou whod been fidgeting since hed come in. His attitude toward Shang Jin became a bit better and his brows were no longer tightly knitted, lest he gave Ye Zhou the feeling of breaking apart the pair of Mandarin ducks.

But Ye Zhou is more fortunate than I am, Shang Jin said sincerely, because he has Big Brother Ye. Big Brother Ye really cares about him without reservation and wholeheartedly considers for Ye Zhou.

Ye Heng touched Ye Zhous head and said, Who let him be my younger brother? If I dont care for him, who will?

Shang Jin sighed with feeling, With Big Brother here, presumably Ye Zhou also wont be bullied.

Of course.

It could be considered a harmonious meal, and even if Ye Heng wanted to make trouble for Shang Jin, he couldnt find a specific pretext.

After dinner, Shang Jin tactfully took his leave, Big Brother, I still have a matter tonight, so I wont send you off.

This was exactly what Ye Heng wanted. He happened to have something to say to Ye Zhou.

Brother, when you go back, take good care of yourself. The next time you come, call me directly and Ill pick you up.

Yeah. Ye Heng was concerned about his brothers straightforwardness and didnt feel good at all. The little bit of goodwill he had towards Shang Jin fell down again. You have to take good care of yourself, and you must tell big brother if you get bullied. Especially Shang Jin, this kind of shrewd person who, the moment he came, brought up what he was most concerned about, and then used his family to insinuate that Ye Zhou had been treated unfairly at home for so many years. In the end, it was up to him to protect Ye Zhou again and again. His familys little brother definitely couldnt match the others play. Thinking of this, Ye Heng felt bitter tears in his heart. If he didnt see that the other wholeheartedly cared for Ye Zhou, he wouldnt easily let the other go.

Dont worry, I wont be bullied.

Ye Heng shook his head and said in his heart: Even if you were bullied, you may not find out.
