Chapter 123 (2/2)

“Su Yuyang, there are some things we have to hash out face to face!” Ling Miao grimaced.

It was late at night and the neon lights outside had gradually gone out. Several streetlights were still lit, creating a lonely atmosphere. Ling Miao braced himself on the windowsill and looked to the distance. He seemed to see Su Yuyang’s busy silhouette. A blink of an eye and the world went dark again.

Su Yuyang was currently hunting through his closet for clothes as if he really were going to meet his in-laws the next day.

A clean and neat button-down, light-colored jeans, white sneakers, a clean head of hair, and a sleepy face. All in all, a student’s look. Su Yuyang looked with satisfaction at himself in the mirror. He forced his lips into a smile, looking incredibly confident.

No matter how he looked at it, he looked like he was about to go take an important examination.

On deeper thought, finding Ling Miao and possibly also meeting his future in-laws was indeed an extremely important examination of life to Su Yuyang.

Su Yuyang planned to board the first train so he didn’t sleep all night. As the time drew closer, he left the house.

Feng Ji called as Su Yuyang waited for the train. Of course, it was to ask about Su Yuyang’s preparations. Su Yuyang said everything was okay. Feng Ji asked if he should bring An Yan and go with Su Yuyang—if Su Yuyang couldn’t settle things, An Yan would be able to help. Su Yuyang very decisively rejected this offer.

What a joke. Ling Miao was Su Yuyang’s lover, of course Su Yuyang needed to bring him home himself. As opposed to getting An Yan to help, he might as well wait for Ling Miao to come back of his own accord. A pity—Su Yuyang didn’t have the patience to wait for Ling Miao to come back on his own. Ling Miao’s condition worried him to no end.

In the train carriage, Su Yuyang got excited every time his phone vibrated. But he was disappointed time after time because he was anticipating a message from Ling Miao.

Whether on his microblog, the forum, or the group chat, Su Yuyang saw no messages from Ling Miao as he arrived at the stop where he had to get off to transfer lines.

He’s avoiding me, Su Yuyang thought despondently.

Compared to the emptiness on Line 6, Line 3 was always very crowded. Nevertheless, Su Yuyang still found a less crowded corner to stand in. He made a microblog post: On line 3. It’s so packed.

Ling Miao didn’t sleep well all night. Though he had made up his mind to talk it through with Su Yuyang, he still felt that once Su Yuyang got here the events that came to pass would make everyone unhappy.

Ling Miao lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling for more than two hours. Reflexively he reached for his phone on the nightstand and didn’t find anything, then remembered that his phone was at Su Yuyang’s house.

He turned on his laptop and went on his microblog. His dash contained only Su Yuyang’s microblog.

“On Line 3. It’s so packed.” Seeing Su Yuyang’s latest blog post, Ling Miao panicked. He’s really coming to find me?

Before Ling Miao had stopped panicking, a new post notification arrived.

Su Yuyang had reblogged the blog post with an addition: Xiao Miao, wait for me.

“Indeed…” Ling Miao stared in a daze at the words ‘Wait for me.’ He replied, “Alright, I’ll wait for you.”

“We are approaching Nanping…” Hearing the announcement, Su Yuyang put away his phone and walked toward the train door. Although he didn’t like being shoved about by people, his heart was relatively light.

Su Yuyang asked for directions all the way. After seven or eight twists and turns, he finally arrived at the neighborhood where Ling Miao’s parents lived.

Knock knock. A clear knock came from the door. Ling Miao thought agitatedly, Has he arrived?
