Chapter 437 - CLOSING OF THE DOOR (1/2)
SHEN YI MU took out the key from his pocket and opened the door to Jiang Yue's apartment. They had been together for almost 10 years now, Jiang Yue's place was almost like his own place. And the same could be said to his house.
He actually longed wanted for the two of them to live together. But because of the accident of his second brother and sister-in-law, he assumed the role of a guardian to his nephew five years ago. And Jiang Yue told him that it would not look proper if he lived together with them. It would also not be good if the Shen family found out about it.
Sometimes, he wished that he could just not care about everything. That way, he could easily shout in front of people how much he loved Jiang Yue. He even imagined sometimes that maybe he should have established his gaming company abroad. Then he would bring Jiang Yue with him after the other graduated. Then they didn't have to worry about his family or be subjected to this country's narrow views on same-s.e.x love.
But being an a.d.u.l.t didn't work that way. He couldn't just think about himself. Especially now that he had a kid to think about. He shook his head and just put those thoughts away.
Shen Yi Mu walked inside the apartment.
Jiang Yue asked him to go here because he wanted to talk about something. He didn't think much and just thought that it might have something to do with his job. After all, Jiang Yue just got promoted to assistant professor recently.
He hoped that there wasn't any problem. Jiang Yue was now working at their alma mater – T University – as an English Literature teacher. And just like he mentioned earlier, he just got promoted to assistant professor. Which was already quite a feat considering that he was only 28 years old. But being promoted at such a young age could also cause some problems.
There might be people who were jealous of him and might make things difficult for him. So, he brought Jiang Yue's favorite dessert – a matcha cake. Of course, he would also do his best to cheer him up.
”Ah Yue! I'm here!” he called, walking towards the living room of the apartment.
Jiang Yue's apartment was not that big. It had a single bedroom with a living room/dining room, a kitchen, and a bathroom. It was simple yet very homey and full of character. Anyone could immediately see that the owner put a lot of his thoughts decorating the place.
He and Jiang Yue had a lot of memories in this place. Memories that he would cherish forever.
The door of the bedroom opened and Jiang Yue walked out. Shen Yi Mu was startled seeing him. The other was obviously not in a good state. His face was pale and there were dark circles under his eyes.
He put down the box of cake on the small dining table and walked towards Jiang Yue. ”Are you okay, Ah Yue?” he asked worriedly, touching his forehead to check his temperature. He was surprised to feel how cold the other was. ”You're cold. Let's go to the hospital to have you checked, okay?”
He felt Jiang Yue's body stiffened at the mention of 'hospital'. He stepped back and avoided his touch. ”I'm fine,” he said in a hoarse voice.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #%5Bbl%5D_13719703905965805/closing-of-the-door_52014360184276123 for visiting.
Shen Yi Mu immediately felt that something was wrong seeing Jiang Yue's small actions. But he only attributed it to Jiang Yue's mood. He probably was not feeling well. He remembered how the other had been complaining to him about having migraines.
”Are you sure you don't want to go to a hospital?” he asked again.
”I told you, it's fine.”
Again, that 'wrong' feeling filled him once again. But he could only shake it off and try to lighten up the mood. ”Ah Yue, I brought your favorite matcha cake. Do you want to eat? I'll give you a slice.”
Jiang Yue shook his head. ”No. Let's talk, Brother Mu.”
He walked towards the couch and sat down. He also asked Shen Yi Mu to sit on the opposite seat. Which he did.
