Yu Hao looked at the selfie Fu Liqun took today. In the back of the photo, Zhou Sheng’s face and expression made it seem like he wanted to say something — it was the face of someone who couldn’t help but want to look at the other party because of how much they like them. Yu Hao hadn’t understood what all that had meant until now. He was belatedly struck powerfully by that gaze, so he turned over and lay sprawled on the bed.

“I’m dying I’m dying……” Yu Hao moaned, “I’m going to die……”

Fu Liqun, “Ah, we can’t meet for half a year, I’m going to die too……”

Zhou Sheng came out after his bath. The lights were already off in the dormitory, so it was pitch dark.

“Asleep?” Zhou Sheng looked at Yu Hao’s bed in the dark.

Yu Hao had been tormented all day until he was absolutely delirious. His battery had been exhausted, so he unintentionally fell asleep while he lay sprawled on his bed.

“Yes.” Fu Liqun answered indifferently from another bed.

Zhou Sheng turned on a small cold lamp, sat at his desk bare chested, and carefully wiped his sneakers clean. Then he got onto his bed, crossed the bedside railings to move close to Yu Hao’s lips, their breathing intermingling with each other.

“Good night.” Zhou Sheng said softly.

The next day, Yu Hao felt Zhou Sheng kissing him and immediately opened his eyes. The glaring light streamed in through the balcony, and the night passed in a flash just like that.

Zhou Sheng was sitting on the ladder in front of the bed, already dressed in his sportswear and asked, “Awake?”

Yu Hao sat up with his thin blanket in his arms, but Zhou Sheng said, “Get up and wash up.”

Fu Liqun had also changed into a set of sportswear and was warming up at the door as he waited for Zhou Sheng. The two of them then went out for a morning run. It was the first day of the new semester today. After Yu Hao sobered up, he remembered what happened yesterday and immediately rolled over and laid face down on his bed.

“Aaaaaahhhhhhhh——”

Yu Hao was going crazy. I’m dating Zhou Sheng now?! He kissed me just now? How could he kiss me so naturally like he’s used to it?!

Yesterday’s shock still lingered without losing any of its intensity, and it was crashing around madly in his inner world. Yu Hao felt like he would need at least three months to get used to the changes in his life.

He took his phone out and scrolled through the various group chats — everything was normal, and everyone in the chats were greeting one another due to school resuming. No one in the sports class talked about them. It was a little difficult for him to restrain his impulse to show off, but he didn’t have any friends he could brag to. He definitely couldn’t tell the people in his class, otherwise it would certainly invite trouble……so he could only endure it bitterly.

Chen Yekai sent Yu Hao a red packet:【Jiayou for the new semester. I’ve been busy with the college evaluations recently; I’ll look for you to have dinner together in a few days.】

Yu Hao wanted to treat Chen Yekai to a meal so this was perfect and incidentally, he could bring Zhou Sheng along too.

“Here’s breakfast, I’m heading to class.” Zhou Sheng returned to the dorm all sweaty with a KFC breakfast in hand, “Don’t have time to take a bath now, wait for me to have lunch together in the afternoon.”

Yu Hao just took a bath, and his hair was still wet. He wiped his hair as he looked at Zhou Sheng with some embarrassment.

“What are you smiling at?” Zhou Sheng suddenly became shy. There were only the two of them in the dormitory. Yu Hao knew that Zhou Sheng must have ordered takeaway on his phone and ran to the college gate to fetch it before running back to the dormitory to pass it to him.

Yu Hao kissed Zhou Sheng’s cheek, and Zhou Sheng immediately blushed. Steam seemed to rise from the top of his head.

“I’m leaving!” Zhou Sheng changed into a clean T-shirt and went out.

The new semester began, and this was the first time in Yu Hao’s life for him to actually be in a relationship. And how he felt about it was……no wonder everyone said that dating will impact your studies,it really did affect his studies a lot. He didn’t know what his teachers had been talking about for four lessons in a row this morning. He just kept touching his phone and looking at it to see if Zhou Sheng messaged him or not. Zhou Sheng was taking physical fitness tests now and would occasionally send him a few messages to ask about his classes.

Yu Hao had to learn statistics and probability this year, and he had psychostatistics next semester. These were all vexing subjects. With the beginning of sophomore year, his workload had become relatively heavier, and Zhou Sheng finally said:【Am I disturbing your studies? I can’t resist the urge to look for you all the time; I won’t message you for now.】

Yu Hao hastily replied to say that he wouldn’t disturb him, and Zhou Sheng replied to him with a string of emoticons. But Yu Hao was seen by the teacher, so he hurriedly hid his phone. Time felt like it was practically crawling in this experimental psychology class for Yu Hao, but he endured it until it was finally at an end. Yu Hao was about to head to the canteen when he saw that Zhou Sheng was already waiting for him at the stairway entrance.

He said to Yu Hao, “Where are you looking at?” He reached out to drape his arm over his shoulder and led him away to have lunch.

Yu Hao said, “Don’t be too high-profile.”

Zhou Sheng’s action was somewhat unnatural in the first place, but he said, “Weren’t we like this before anyway? There’s nothing to be scared of.”

Yu Hao suddenly realised that he was right; they seemed to be no different now than before, except for the extra kiss in the morning. In the past, Zhou Sheng would also rub his head when he woke him up.

When they arrived at the canteen for lunch, Yu Hao sat down to wait as usual, and Zhou Sheng passed through the crowd with two trays. Fu Liqun had already begun to wolf down his food first. Yu Hao took a tissue to wipe his chopsticks and began to think that it really seemed like everything was almost the same as before.

“What are you thinking about?” Zhou Sheng smiled. His smile contained a faint hint of bashfulness, “You want to feed me?”

Yu Hao picked up some food with his chopsticks and Zhou Sheng leaned in to eat it. The two of them looked at each other and smiled before eating their own meals.
