68. Hug, just a little longer.

Yu Sheng was hugged by him, he lifted his hand and landed it on Jin Linkun’s back.

___

Is it such a big deal?

After all, it was the place he frequented often and people could see them. Yu Sheng opened his mouth, wanting him to not hug him in the grounds of No. 3 secondary school, but when the words came to his mouth, he still didn’t make a sound.

It’s obviously a trivial matter that is not worth caring about, but he doesn’t know why, when he was hugged and his head rubbed gently, some strange emotions rose silently in his chest.

It seemed that there were some emotions that he hadn’t even noticed, and the emotions that had been buried deep in his heart were completely eradicated when this person hugged him so tightly.

Yu Sheng smiled and tugged at Jin Linkun’s clothes, signalling him to let go.

Already familiar with Sheng’s small movements, Jin Linkun lowered his head and smiled, and was about to withdraw his arms when the director of the Education Office just strolled out from the Academic Affairs Office after chatting: “…”

Jin Linkun touched the tip of his nose, met the sudden sharp gaze of the No. 3 Secondary School principal in his arms, coughed lightly, and tried his best to move his arm down without any trace.

The director of the Education Department put his hands behind his back and raised his chin: “Hug, hug for a while longer.”

___

Jin Linkun lowered his head and tried to ask his school bully for his opinion: “Is he serious or being sarcastic?”

Yu Sheng had a headache, and was about to speak when the director of the Education Department continued vigorously: “It’s time to hug, how many times have I told you parents, don’t be stingy to show love and encouragement to your children?”

“…”

The director of the education department was very serious, and advised Jin Linkun not to let go, and hug him for another fifteen seconds.

At that time when Yu Sheng beat someone up, he had to be punished because the little gangster in the third year of high school had already been beaten to the point of losing his shape, and his family was a bit powerful, they kept clamouring for an explanation.

Originally, as long as the investigation was thorough, the school could still interfere, but Yu Sheng insisted not to involve Yang Fan, so he could only take the simplest way to deal with it.

Anyway, it’s just an internal punishment, just withdraw before the college entrance examination, it won’t be noted in the systems as it’s not too serious.

These teachers just always felt that someone needs to praise the little rabbit for this.

After all, it is not easy for a teacher to praise directly, so they want to explain the situation to the parents, let the parents encourage the students, and tell the students that it is right to do so.

It’s right to help other students, and it’s right to act righteously. Maybe the process was a little violent, but what needs to be corrected is only the method, not the reason.

But when the call came, one of the two contacts was busy with work, and the other was busy with the child in some talent training, so they hung up the phone in a hurry after only saying a few words.

The director of the education department has always had a very negative opinion on Sheng’s parents, and this time he finally saw him, and directly nagged him from the corridor into the education department.

Jin Linkun was scolded honestly, looking at the child who was obviously suppressing the corners of his mouth and not helping, he had no choice but to try to save himself: “Director, I am actually not Yu Sheng’s parent.”

The director of the Education Department pushed his glasses and looked at him carefully from the lens: “You aren’t?”

“Yes, look.” Jin Linkun stood a little closer to him, “Actually, I am—”

In the middle of the sentence, Yu Sheng kicked him from behind.

Jin Linkun: “…”

The director of the education department lowered his head suspiciously and flipped through papers on the table.

For students like Yu Sheng who is famed in school not for academic reasons, their contact information and basic files are all with them. It happened that Yu Sheng came by a while ago after school started, and the materials were taken out and put on the table, and they hadn’t been tidied up yet.

The director of the education department looked through the mountain of papers carefully, took out a copy and slapped it on the table, and made a call according to the newly revised emergency contact.

___

After a few seconds, the mobile phone in Jin Linkun’s pocket rang happily.

Jin Linkun: “…”

Yu Sheng: “…”

The director of the education department was very angry: “Look, I’m talking about you parents!!!”

Not only did he not care about his children’s education, but he even dared to lie.

After more than an hour, Yu Sheng’s parent, who were disgraced by the director, were finally released from the education department.

The day students downstairs had already started to leave school, it was a bit noisy, the sound of running and running shook up through the floors.

There was so much time, Yu Sheng even went back to class leisurely to pack his school bag, and was leaning in the corridor outside to play with his mobile phone.

The students in Class 7 extended a warm welcome to the arrival of the new student. When Yu Sheng went back to pack his things, a group of people who usually only knew how to blindly answer English questions were queuing up at Yang Fan’s desk to ask their questions.

Yu Sheng glanced over and found that they were all very basic grammatical questions, and some of them were even at the junior high school level.

Yang Fan had never talked to so many people before, his face was flushed with nervousness, but his eyes were shining brightly under his lens.

Yu Sheng stood aside and watched for a while, completely relieved, and left the classroom with his schoolbag.

Jin Linkun received an hour-long education on “How to be a Qualified Parent” at the Education Department. Now his respect for the teachers of No. 3 Secondary School has reached its peak. He went out in a daze and was led by Yu Sheng: “My friend, I want to know whether this is the skill of the director of your education department alone or the tradition of the whole school…”

“It’s a tradition in the whole school.” Yu Sheng thought for a while, “It takes one day for the opening ceremony of every sports meeting to end.”

The principal talks, the principal speaks, and the principal chats, then the head master continues to talk.

Sometimes after everyone had gone out to buy a meal at noon, only the people in the sports team were still listening to the head of the sports team to finish emphasising the spirit of sportsmanship and competition in front of the sparse auditorium.

The day went so perfectly.

So every sports meeting in No. 3 Secondary School lasts for five days.

Jin Linkun did a simple mental calculation, but he still didn’t match the numbers: “Why is it five days?”

Yu Sheng: “The closing ceremony will take another day.”

“…”

“Hurry up, the sports meeting is a few days before the National Day holiday.”

Yu Sheng raised his eyebrows, glanced at Jin Linkun’s expression, and couldn’t help but raise the corner of his mouth: “Would you like to experience it?”

Most of the high school seniors do not participate in the sports meeting, but their principals firmly believe that this is the best way to enhance the cohesion of the class and vent the excess energy of the majority of students.

Facts have proved that the sports meeting has indeed significantly reduced the rate of violations of discipline within one or two months before and after, so this fine tradition has been preserved.

Jin Linkun rubbed his forehead, took a breath, met the child’s rare gloating eyes, and still couldn’t hold back, he leaned on his shoulder and laughed.

They couldn’t figure out where the joke was, and the two of them suddenly couldn’t stop laughing.

The boy was tall and had long arms, and they were entangled in a complicated way, leaning against the stairwell where no one passed by, their chest was slightly trembling, and their voices echoed.

Tired of laughing, Jin Linkun held Yu Sheng’s arm and leaned back, relaxed.

The two of them were standing a little away from the wall, Yu Sheng subconsciously pulled, and suddenly the strength on the other side was much stronger than him, and he pulled him over.

Yu Sheng didn’t stand still, he staggered two steps forward: “What are you doing?”

Jin Linkun looked at him with his eyes still bent, but the smile in his eyes had faded away, leaving only seriousness behind.

Although he intuitively felt that the atmosphere right now should be quite good, Yu Sheng raised his head and looked at him for a while, but couldn’t help but say: “Just to tell you, you look very motherly right now.”

Jin Linkun: “…”

“Wait a minute, I need some time to adjust my expression.”

Jin Linkun took off his glasses, stuffed them into Yu Sheng’s hands, rubbed his face vigorously, and turned Yu Sheng around by holding his shoulders.

Yu Sheng turned around half a circle for no reason, and turned his back to him while clutching his glasses: “Are you going to impart some knowledge to me?”*

*( in martial arts movies/shows, they do this.)

…I can’t show my child martial arts movies when I get home.

Jin Linkun coughed twice, fumbled to hold his hand, took the glasses back, led the man back around, and met his gaze.

After being educated by the director of the education department for an hour, Jin Linkun found out that Yu Sheng came to sign up for high school alone with his own luggage.

It turned out that every time Yu Sheng’s parents were invited, the Education Department secretly found a teacher who was not known to help confront the parents of the students who accused Yu Sheng and clarify who was right and who was wrong.

So Yu Sheng violated the school rules less and less, and when he did anything, he would try to talk things through before using force, and then he became the first school bully in No. 3 Secondary school who obeyed the rules and never arrived late or left early.

It turned out that Yu Sheng, a freshman in high school, was in a bad mood and would sit alone on the rooftop for a long time. The principal was so scared that he almost climbed up the ladder to talk to him.

Later, because the principal looked to be in such a dangerous position, Yu Sheng, who just wanted to see the scenery, was so frightened that he turned over on the railing, and brought the trembling principal back to the ground, holding the ladder for him.

Listening to the nagging of the Director of the Education Department, Jin Linkun pieced together his impressions of Sheng’s two years in high school, and the thoughts that occasionally floated up in his chest suddenly became very clear.

…It was painfully clear.

But his child should not be distressed.

Yu Sheng grew up alone, and also grew into the strongest and gentlest person, able to get up, reach out, and protect others.

The soul that was hidden in that seemingly cold shell is clearly so clean and pure that it is not tainted at all.

Later, Jin Linkun thought he should feel proud.

Thinking of how great his boyfriend is, he couldn’t help but feel proud, and wanted to stay by Yu Sheng’s side all the time, watching him grow and shine.

___

Too much to say, too little to express in words.

Jin Linkun looked at him for a long while, still twitching the corners of his lips, and smiled: “…Forget it.”

If you don’t know how to express it in words, do it another way.

Yu Sheng watched him lean down, his lips suddenly becoming slightly warm.

Jin Linkun turned sideways and pulled him into a corner, his voice was so low and the space between them so close: “Boyfriend, is there any surveillance around?”

“…” Yu Sheng said in his heart: why didn’t I see you worrying about this when you were laughing like a psychopath just now? He looked a little impatiently into his eyes, but he was left speechless.

His heart thumped loudly.

“It broke early on.” Yu Sheng said, “Otherwise, you will have heard the voice of the Director of the Education Office now, asking the two students who are hanging out together in the stairwell on the sixth floor to come to the Office.”

Jin Linkun leaned against him and smiled softly.

This spoilsport is really annoying.

Yu Sheng pursed the corners of his mouth, wanting to ask this person not to always violate the rules and use other methods, so he opened his mouth but before he could, it was covered with a kiss.

___

After an unknown amount of time, Yu Sheng heard his own abnormally rapid breathing.

Jin Linkun’s breathing was also rapid, and the warm air hit his temples, his dark eyes were covered by the shadow.

The somewhat unfamiliar feeling of losing control made Yu Sheng instinctively feel uneasy, so he couldn’t help but struggle a little, and Jin Linkun put a hand on his back, rubbing it comfortingly several times.

“Relax, it’s okay…”

Jin Linkun’s voice was hoarse than usual, and his hot lips pressed against his: “It’s okay, I’m here.”

Yu Sheng was slightly taken aback, his body had already relaxed into his arms.

The corridor was empty, and the echo of panting could almost be heard.

The boyfriend who was once mistaken for the parent’s kissing skills was not as reliable as he showed. After several bumps, the boy’s strength was so strong that he couldn’t stop it even though he tried his best, and his movements were obviously jerky and nervous.

Yu Sheng seriously suspected that the corners of his mouth might have been bruised.

___

But somehow he didn’t want to move away.

He groped around, took Jin Linkun’s hand, and clasped it firmly one finger at a time.

The palms were tightly pressed together, he doesn’t know who is stronger, but that it hurts.

Yu Sheng closed his eyes.

There seemed to be a particularly large book, and there was a crinkling sound, and a page was turned in his head, revealing a brand new, completely blank page number.

All the contents of the past are turned over with this one flip, completely and cleanly wiped.

The rest of the space is theirs.

His.

The next day, Duan Lei widened his eyes and looked at the bruise on Sheng-ge’s mouth: “…”

Yu Sheng: “No, shut up.”

Duan Lei was so wrong: “Sheng-ge, I haven’t asked yet!”

“It wasn’t the men in black who beat me up. I wasn’t kidnapped, I wasn’t threatened, and I didn’t blink.”

Yu Sheng finished speaking and looked at him kindly: “Are there any questions?”

“…” Duan Lei sat back on his seat and opened the English book.

Since the self-study in the morning, the whole class of Grade 3 and 7 has been caught in a wave of frenzied study.

“The average score of the first class is 82 points. There were 41 students with a total score of 3362 points. Even if Lao Yang only took the test with 100 points, their average score became 81.55 points!”

The squad leader’s eyes were burning, and he waved the straw paper: “There are only 30 people in our class, and the average score is 64 points. Adding Lao Yang’s 100 points, the average score jumped to 65.16! Now we have less than 17 points left. gap!”

In two months, it is undoubtedly unrealistic to mention all the subjects together, but if you want to specialise in one subject, especially under the premise of low base scores, you may not be able to make obvious progress.

Yu Sheng twirled the pen twice and opened the English book again.

Jin Linkun unexpectedly paid attention to this make-up class. He stayed up late last night to prepare for the classes. When he woke up after a nap, the small desk lamp in front of the desk was still on.

All the English books at home may have been moved to the desk top. Jin Linkun was wearing short-sleeved pyjamas, with a laptop in front of him, he was typing on the keyboard intently.

From the grammatical and sentence patterns that are difficult for junior high school to the next level, the schedule is done carefully and in detail.

He couldn’t see the traces of pretentiousness at the time when he said that Jin Linkun should teach reading comprehension, he pictured him standing on the podium and showing off his cursive fonts, and saying “because A, B, D is wrong, so it is obvious to choose C”.

Yu Sheng got up from the bed, fumbled for a piece of clothing, and looked at it with him for a while.

Strange to say, those English words that are usually annoying to look at, are suddenly not so annoying under the dim little desk lamp.

___

Especially when Jin Linkun was holding his hands, sitting together so closely, this man leaned over and kissed the corners of the mouth twice, and claimed that it was an instalment payment for tutor fees.

In the second half of the night, he actually slept well.

When he woke up in the morning, he found that when he slept until dawn this time without dreaming, Yu Sheng was still a little sleepy.

Duan Lei and the others knew that English was the subject Yu Sheng hated the most, and seeing that he seemed to be obsessed by memorising words for a while, they couldn’t help but go over to show some concern after class, and they happened to be held down by Yu Sheng to help him figure out what was going on.

Yu Sheng’s words are always concise. If he can say clearly in one sentence, he usually doesn’t waste the second sentence. After Duan Lei listened and reacted for a long time, he finally figured out what he wanted to ask.

“Sheng-ge…so your question is why you suddenly don’t have a headache when reading English.”

Duan Lei took a deep breath and summed up Yu Sheng’s question: “And last night, you suddenly found that learning English is very easy. You memorised more than ten pages of vocabulary in one hand, and you slept soundly all through the night and haven’t forgotten it all yet?”

Yu Sheng nodded: “Yes.”

Duan Lei: “…”

It was the first time he saw Duan Lei ruthlessly dumping Sheng-ge and returning to his seat, Yao Qiang, who was watching the excitement, couldn’t help but lean over: “What’s the matter, when did you become so courageous?”

“Bullshit.”

Duan Lei turned over a page that was completely wrong and filled in the blanks, and pushed him back expressionlessly : “The reaction I had is already the reaction I deemed to have the highest chance of survival among all the other reactions I have made up in my brain.”

Yao Qiang didn’t hear the previous story, and was so curious that he was going crazy: “Have you imagined something else? Like what?”

Duan Lei put down his book and looked up: “For example, Sheng-ge suddenly fell while he was walking, and quickly put Sheng-ge on a sack and punched him.”

“Or while Sheng-ge is pressed against the wall and kissed until he can’t breathe, quickly put Sheng-ge in a sack and punch him.”

“Or when Sheng-ge is knocked unconscious by an alien falling from the sky, quickly put Sheng-ge in a sack and punch him.”

“…”

Yao Qiang was shocked by his rich imagination, “Brother, you need a lot of external help.”

“Nonsense.” Duan Lei had a very clear understanding of himself, “Without such external help, do you think I can survive three seconds in front of Sheng-ge with a sack?”

Not sure what stimulated his good brother, Yao Qiang patted him on the shoulder comfortingly: “Okay, don’t dream, hurry up and recite the vocabulary… By the way, why will Sheng-ge be pressed against the wall and kissed so hard?”

Duan Lei didn’t dare to put on a sack and punch Sheng-ge at all, so he just randomly listed three situations that he thought would never happen, and he was asked one by one: “Do you think Sheng-ge will suddenly trip while walking? Or be knocked unconscious by aliens?”

“No.” Yao Qiang shook his head, “But among the three, I’m more curious about the one in the middle.”

Duan Lei: “…”
