Recap
Jin Linkun tightened his arms and hugged him.
Yu Sheng groaned, buried his face in his arms, and closed his eyes.
He didn’t know if it was pain or some other stimulation, but the white light completely drowned out all the images in his mind, leaving only this person.
The breath and temperature that completely belong to this person are mingled with him in this close space.
___
When he calmed down, the warm water was already rushing over his body.
The light from the bathroom casts a hazy halo. Yu Sheng pushed Jin Linkun away and leaned against the bathroom wall to relax for a while: “How did I get here?”
___
Jin Linkun rubbed the tip of his nose, feeling that he might need to use a little imagination at this time.
“…It’s like this, friend, you may not believe it.”
Considering that his child’s heart rate would be higher after a kiss, Jin Linkun cleared his throat, forced his eyes open and said nonsense: “You woke up just now, stood up, and told me you wanted to take a shower.”
Yu Sheng put his head on his forehead and couldn’t bear to continue listening.
He looked up and his eyes fell on this man’s calm expression. He couldn’t help but smile: “Okay.”
It still hurts, the scenes just now are still playing in his mind, he is terribly tired, and his thoughts seem to be running a little sluggishly.
Yu Sheng took a breath, feeling that he shouldn’t think too much about this matter. He was about to pick a few papers to clear his mind when Jin Linkun’s arms went around his shoulder: “Does it hurt a lot?”
“It doesn’t hurt.” Yu Sheng wanted to push him away, but in the end he was too lazy to move so he nudge the tip of his nose against his neck, “Wasn’t it subject two?”
Jin Linkun was startled: “Huh?”
In fact, he didn’t think there was any problem at this step. Yu Sheng’s thinking was a little slow. He leaned against the wall and yawned: “Wasn’t it subject two? It’s all done. What’s the content of subject three?”
Jin Linkun glanced down subconsciously.
He moved very quickly, and in a blink of an eye he had raised his head again. He smiled widely and was about to speak when Yu Sheng had already followed him and looked down: “…”
Jin Linkun: “…”
“It’s fine.”
Looking into his misty eyes, Jin Linkun’s ears felt a little hot. He smiled and shook his head: “Don’t worry about it, just wash up and let’s go to bed.”
His preparations were thorough, and Yu Sheng only had to wash up. He led him into the bathroom together, but Yu Sheng pulled him back again: “You can still sleep even though you’re still hard?”
Jin Linkun took a breath, and a heat that he had been suppressing rushed up, getting hotter and hotter: “I’m in no hurry, you–“
Yu Sheng was still leaning against his shoulder, his hand slowly drifting down.
The rest of his words were caught in his throat as Jin Linkun subconsciously opened his mouth but made no sound.
The boy’s movements were still jerky, and his hands, which had not been warmed with hot water for a while, were a little cold, so he wrapped them around him with great care.
Jin Linkun leaned back against the tiles, closed his eyes, and called him dumbly: “Yu Sheng.”
He hugged the man into his arms, and tried his best to hold on tight but not to hurt him, holding the back of his head with some force: “Yu Sheng.”
“Tutor.” Yu Sheng raised his head, “Let me through the back door and take subject 3 together as well.”
___
Yu Sheng woke up to the lively noise of Class 7.
The soundproofing of the hotel was good, but it couldn’t hold the door closed, and this group of people were outside coaxing them to go to the amusement park.
“If Lao He provides the funds, he can apply for reimbursement!”
Their class sports committee got off the cable car, rested for a night, and then jumped up and down again. They wanted to experience the exciting drop tower: “Sheng-ge, let’s go together!”
Jin Linkun blocked the door dutifully and patiently made up stories for them: “Yu Sheng did three sets of maths papers in a row yesterday. He did it all night and is still sleeping…”
The students in Class 7 had recently reached their peak of respect for Sheng-ge who was studying. When they heard what he said, their voices immediately dropped and they continued talking to Jin Linkun in a low voice.
The light was a bit dazzling, so Yu Sheng raised his hands to cover his eyes and turned over.
The maths papers, that Jin Linkun claimed to have been completed last night, are still spread out on the table, and one and a half sets are not finished.
It hurts everywhere.
It was not obvious last night, but after sleeping all night, he is still very tired. Jin Linkun was already extremely gentle and careful, but after all, it is the first time, so it was inevitable that he could not control his strength.
Yu Sheng originally planned to make up for the papers after finishing subject two, but now it seems that he was wrong about the physical consumption of learning how to drive.
Jin Linkun changed his clothes and went out to meet the people. His pyjamas were hastily placed beside the bed. His half-worn T-shirt is soft and contains a little golden sunlight.
Yu Sheng is tired and when he saw that Jin Linkun hadn’t come back yet, he felt under the pillow and took out his phone to read the messages.
Yesterday, Jin Linkun had nothing to do and ran to tell the entire Group 7 that they are officially together. Half of the group came to him and asked him whether Kunshen had had his WeChat stolen again or had finally gone crazy.
Yu Sheng casually replied to the two people, clicked on Liang Yifan’s profile picture, and was about to copy and paste the same response, when his fingers suddenly paused.
___
Probably because the innocent and kind-hearted classmate Liang Yifan was often responsible for solving Kunshen’s questions on love, Yu Sheng read more and felt that this person’s WeChat messages seemed to strangely have the aura similar to that of another close friend.
Yu Sheng recalled yesterday’s situation again and sent him a message: What is the difference between subject two and subject three?
After it reached that point yesterday, the tutor who had given him the back door touched his hair gently and congratulated him on passing subject two.
He deserves a good beating.
Yu Sheng felt that if he hadn’t been able to get up at this time, he would have gotten up and beat him up.
Liang Yifan was not aware of what Yu Sheng was thinking and thought that Yu Sheng really wanted to take the driver’s licence test. He happily replied: Sheng-ge, are you also going to try the challenge that is only for adults?
Liang Yifan: That’s right. Subject three is the road test, which tests drivers on safe and civilised driving procedures, such as how to navigate in bad weather, how to navigate complicated roads, and emergency responses.
This statement sounds straight from a textbook, Liang Yifan was afraid that he would not understand, so he explained it to him thoughtfully: To put it simply, subject two is a test in a venue booked for driving tests. It depends on whether you can complete the basic actions of navigation. Subject three is to actually drive on the road, testing your road mastery when it comes to paying attention to details and events happening on the actual road itself. It essentially tests the driver’s entire process of driving a car.
The explanation is very detailed. Liang Yifan was full of confidence and sent him a cheering emoticon: Sheng-ge, do you understand?
Yu Sheng: ……
Liang Yifan: ?
Yu Sheng: Ah.
___
Liang Yifan felt that his Sheng-ge seemed to be acting a little strange recently.
There is something magical about going out and having fun that goes far beyond class.
Obviously they were so tired from hiking yesterday that their back and legs ached badly, even so, they still got together and played Fight the Landlord for half the evening. Everyone in the group said that they would not be able to get up the next day and would have to sleep all day. However, early the next morning someone started making plans at the playground.
Jin Linkun thanked the classmates for the invitation, and accepted everyone’s concern and words of advice for Yu Sheng that Sheng-ge should not study too hard and hurt his body. He walked around and came back and found that his little friend had also woken up.
The boy, who usually stays in bed very rigidly, now relaxed and is sunken into the pillow, with his hands curled up on the edge of the quilt with half-closed eyelids playing with his mobile phone.
His short hair is a little messy, and when the sun’s rays fall on his hair, it looks exceptionally fluffy.
Jin Linkun couldn’t hold it back and rustled his hair twice: “Are you awake? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?”
“Since when?” Yu Sheng responded casually, took the hand that was reached out to his head, and sat up with a pull, “Did I spend the whole night doing exams?”
“…”
His child’s hearing is very good, Jin Linkun coughed lightly, took a pillow and stuffed it behind his back: “Be kind, your class’ sports committee is still single after all.”
Yu Sheng is not prepared to tell the whole world about this kind of thing. He just wanted to tease this person. The corner of his lips raised and he patted the empty spot beside him: “Come up.”
Jin Linkun still wanted to coax him: “Isn’t that good? You worked too hard yesterday, you should take a break today…”
“We should balance work and rest.”
Yu Sheng thought he was right, nodded, and changed to a more straightforward invitation: “Bring the papers up.”
In the morning after passing Subject 2, Yu Sheng leaned on the bed and finished the remaining one and a half set of papers.
It took a while for the backache to set in. Yu Sheng changed several positions and felt extremely uncomfortable until he was hugged by the person who said, “For this question, I think the dotted lines should be drawn here.”
Yu Sheng originally planned to push away this person who would stick to him whenever he found an opportunity, but his attention was attracted by his dotted line. He held the pen in his half-raised hand and took it back: “If you place this dotted line here, you can skip steps pretty easily. It’s unnecessary, and it’s easy to lose points.”
___
Jin Linkun listened carefully to his child’s words, nodded, and quickly hugged him again.
One and a half sets of papers are finished, and the people who went to the amusement park are almost back.
“There are too many people; we can’t even take a turn.” The monitor of their class is a little disappointed, “We might as well do our homework together.”
The lifestyle committee member disagreed: “It’s better than doing homework. Didn’t we go to the drop tower ride?”
“There is also the pendulum.” Yao Qiang raised his hand and added, “The rides the sports committee selected are not popular, so they are fun. I will go out with the sports committee next time.”
The student committee dragged the sports committee back: “It would be better if we didn’t have to drag the sports committee back every time.”
It was already the weekend, and there were so many people at the amusement park that they couldn’t even get in line. A group of people who only had half a day of free time decided to return to the hotel and continue playing poker.
Yu Sheng’s physique is good, Jin Linkun paid special attention to it. After finishing the paper, he had almost recovered, so they also went along to play a few games.
After playing a few rounds, Duan Lei couldn’t help but lower his voice: “Sheng-ge, do you need me to change some cards with you?”
“No need.” After Yu Sheng what Yu Sheng has experienced, he no longer has a strong desire to win in this kind of game, so he pushed back the four twos that Jin Linkun quietly pushed over, “Keep playing, and I will see how to play these cards.”
In comparison, Jin Linkun is actually the one who is better at poker.
Yu Sheng had never played such a down-to-earth game when he was a child. Later, when he became the leader of No. 3 High School, he was burdened with a heavy burden of being a school bully, and he never took the initiative to participate in this type of card games.
In addition, there are different ways to play the same card game in different places, so a class can come up with several ways to play. The students in Class 7 didn’t care much about these details. The rules have been changing randomly.
This too casual style of play caused a lot of trouble for Yu Sheng. He couldn’t find his strategy for several consecutive games, which caused Jin Linkun, who was in the same group with him, to pay his share several times.
Their sports committee won several rounds in a row, and as a result, he woke up from the shadow of the pendulum. He was a little carried away: “Sheng-ge, do you need me to help you? We can work together, and I will lead you to win…”
Yu Sheng raised his eyebrows and put down the cards in his hand.
Before he could speak, the class monitor had already covered the mouth of the sports committee and pressed him down: “Okay, okay, shut up. Do you believe that Sheng-ge will wish that all of us, except Teacher Jin, can catch two kings and four twos?”
___
Although Teacher Jin promised that Yu Sheng would not do it, the group of people suddenly woke up and were quickly dominated by fear and sat upright holding the cards in their hands.
But soon they discovered that Yu Sheng is really good at this kind of game.
Or, in other words, it seems as if their Sheng-ge looks like he is not playing the game seriously at all.
Of course, snacks are required when playing poker. A plate of peanuts, melon seeds, jelly beans and spicy bars is placed in the middle. Most people actually don’t have the time to eat, but Jin Linkun will grab some every once in a while, and then peel them for Sheng-ge and hide them in the palm of his hand.
Watching Yu Sheng divide the melon seeds back into half, the two of them were eating while discussing how to play the next cards. Standing on the top of the mountain of victory, the sports committee felt a little envious for no reason: “Is it really so happy? When will life also assign me a partner too?”
“Think about your 11.11.” The student committee patted him on the shoulder, “Life has given you enough hints.”
The sports committee wanted to stand up and chase the student committee around, but his legs were so weak that he was unable to do anything. The group of people laughed and booed and few people still wanted to continue playing poker.
Duan Lei was joined in on the fun for a while when he suddenly felt something was wrong. He dragged Yao Qiang to the side and asked, “Why is Sheng-ge wearing a shirt* today?”
*(I tried searching it up, I believe this is called a shirt but it can also be called men’s blouse, 
“He just wants to wear it, right?” Yao Qiang thought there was nothing strange about this, “I remember when I was a sophomore in high school, Sheng-ge actually wore a shirt too.”
Duan Lei remembers it better than him: “That’s impossible. That was Sheng-ge being dragged by the director and others to shoot some school-style advertisement. There is no one in the humanities department who is better looking than Sheng-ge.”
Yu Sheng actually doesn’t like very formal clothes, so he only wore a shirt once, and they wanted to take a photo to commemorate it. But, their Sheng-ge went out to play games at noon and had already changed his clothes when he came back.
Duan Lei went to ask around, and it was said that a nerd next door splashed beer on the shirt so he couldn’t wear it. The group of people were very regretful.
This time Yu Sheng suddenly changed his style. His shirt was buttoned up to the top. Although he look handsome, they are still a bit curious.
Yao Qiang pondered for a long time and came up with a more reliable answer: “Didn’t you say yesterday that you should wear clothes that the person you like thinks you look good in? It’s probably because Teacher Jin thinks the shirt looks good.”
Duan Lei thought about it and felt that it made sense. He did not continue to dwell on why Sheng-ge changed his clothes, and went after the last bag of spicy bars.
After playing all morning, it was finally time to return.
They have been studying extremely hard these days, and it is rare for them to have a chance to go out and play. The group of people are not willing to go back, and they are a little reluctant.
“Everyone, I understand.”
Lao He is very kind: “When I was young, I also looked forward to the autumn outings organised by the school, especially the ones that were farther away. Those in the city were not interesting at all. We had to at least take a bus and play for a few days to truly enjoy it.”
The class monitor’s eyes brightened: “So can we still have fun for one more day?”
“No.” Lao He pressed him back kindly, “Pack your things. We will check out at twelve noon.”
“…”
When the request was denied, the group of students hung their heads in regret and packed their school bags honestly.
The atmosphere in the bus going back was obviously not as energetic as when they went there.
On the one hand, they have to face homework and the upcoming results when they get home. On the other hand, these people have been burning their entire energy bar for a day and a half and are almost too sleepy to keep their eyes open.
“I can’t do it anymore. I can’t do it anymore.” Their class monitor held up his eyelids, “I’m old and I can’t take it anymore.”
The sports committee who is half a year older than him couldn’t stand hearing his words: “What do you mean you’re old? Are you older than me?”
“You guys are both wrong” The lifestyle committee of their class is an art major. He didn’t get admitted to the college he wanted last year, so he has to retake the exams for another year. “Have you ever considered how it really feels to be old? I could still survive two nights without sleeping last year…”
Lao He sat in the passenger seat and listened to the passionate speech for a long time: “Okay, the subject representative will hand out papers. Have you guys finished their homework?”
There is no homework on the weekend of the midterm exam for the first and second grade students, which makes it easy for a group of students who have been tortured by the exam and had already lost half of their lives. In the third year of high school, the teachers did not consider any human rights at all, and left homework for fear that the students would not be able to finish it.
In order to make the students’ homework seem less, Lao He deliberately left the Chinese homework until after they went out to play.
The group of students who had not yet finished their homework were quickly struck down by reality and fell silently.
In fact, Yu Sheng didn’t do any homework. He leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to relax. He vaguely heard the sounds around him.
When he opened his eyes, he found this man looking through his schoolbag.
Before Yu Sheng could ask him what he wanted to do, Jin Linkun had already pulled out a pen, took the paper from the hands of the Chinese class representative, spread it on his lap carefully, and started writing his homework for him one character at a time.
The car was driving and the road was bumpy, but the man’s handwriting was quite steady.
As he wrote, he still responded to several envious questions from the Sports Commission and others very reservedly: “Yes, I’ll do it for him. These questions are too simple and won’t lead to huge improvements. We’re family, and this is what family is all about… “
Yu Sheng felt that this man is really full of nonsense, but he smiled and unwrapped a toffee candy, and handed it to his mouth without looking.
By the way, he didn’t tell Jin Linkun that because most of his classmates couldn’t keep up with his progress, his teachers had actually exempted him from homework in various subjects.
The bus swayed all the way, and Jin Linkun patiently chatted with the group of envious students while doing his homework. It didn’t take long to finish a set of Chinese papers.
The warm wind and the long distance were particularly hypnotic. Yu Sheng did not overcome the tiredness during the journey and fell asleep leaning against the back of the seat.
The lifestyle committee member came over to hand out ID cards for everyone to book accommodation and rooms. He handed them to their row and deliberately lowered his voice: “Kun-ge, yours and Sheng-ge’s ID cards…”
Jin Linkun thanked him and took the ID cards for the both of them and put them away.
The lifestyle committee was about to issue the next person’s ID card when he turned around and inadvertently saw a small red mark on Yu Sheng’s collarbone, which is extremely conspicuous.
It was completely covered by the collar of his shirt, and he would definitely not be able to see it from any other angles.
The lifestyle committee member felt that this matter could not be ignored: “Teacher Jin.”
Jin Linkun pressed on the set of papers and adjusted the back of Yu Sheng’s chair, and raised his head: “Is something the matter?”
“Are there bugs in the room you’re staying in?”
The lifestyle committee still remembers the hotel owner’s phone number and took out his phone: “Is it serious? Are there any other health problems?”
“…” Jin Linkun didn’t react immediately: “Huh?”
The lifestyle committee was determined to fight on behalf of their rights: “I’m going to complain to their boss. It’s simply outrageous. Such sanitary conditions require the hotel to write a letter of apology.”
