Recap
Jin Linkun paused for a moment, quietly opened the door a little, and looked at the sofa in the living room.
Mr. Jin whispered, adjusted his glasses, and the eyes behind the lenses curled up. He raised his hand and rubbed his child’s hair.
Then he rummaged around in his pocket for a while, pulled out a candy, and quietly stuffed it into Yu Sheng’s hand.
___
After helping to put together the Lego all night, Jin Linkun finally realised how Yu Sheng felt when he listened to him talk about physics problems.
Mr. Jin didn’t know much about Lego, so he bought a Star Wars Death Star based on the price. It was much more difficult to put together than a train.
Jin Linkun held the blueprint and squatted beside Yu Sheng. He felt that just building a planet was too unrewarding: “Friend, I think it can actually be used for some artistic re-creation…”
Yu Sheng was looking for a grey coloured puzzle piece when he raised his head and glanced at him: “Like a skyscraper?”
Jin Linkun: “…”
His father not only gave him candies and rubbed his head.
He also told stories to his little friend.
He actually told him.
Jin Linkun squatted beside Lego and thought seriously about who he should be jealous of for a while.
Yu Sheng didn’t hear what he said next. After sitting for a while, he looked sideways at him: “Ge?”
“It’s nothing.”
Guessing what Yu Sheng was going to say, Jin Linkun laughed and rubbed his head: “My dad and mom have always been this way. It’s very normal. I don’t mind.”
As he spoke, he carefully took out a piece of candy from his pocket, unwrapped the candy wrapper and held it to his boyfriend’s lips.
Yu Sheng lowered his head and looked at the piece of candy that was exactly the same as the one in Mr. Jin’s hand: “…”
Jin Linkun held it for a while. Then, he felt that this behaviour of his was a bit too childish, so he leaned into Yu Sheng’s neck and couldn’t help laughing: “It’s okay, I’m just teasing you.”
Yu Sheng’s knuckles were clenched so hard that they turned a little white. Jin Linkun pulled his hand over: “Do you like to play with this?”
Yu Sheng looked at the Lego bricks in his hand.
In fact, he didn’t really like it that much. He had never really played with this kind of toy before, then he lost much interest in it later.
But this is something given by Jin Linkun’s father.
The atmosphere in the Jin family is indeed, as Jin Linkun said, different from that of Duan Lei, Yao Qiang and the others, which is a bit overwhelming.
But he felt that it’s very good in all aspects.
It’s so good that it almost gives rise to some kind of illusion.
___
Before he could dwell on it further, he felt a slight pain on his forehead.
Yu Sheng raised his head, and Jin Linkun, who had just given him a flick, looked at him seriously: “What are you thinking about?”
When two people stay together for a long time, there will be some tacit understanding between them that seems to be telepathic. Yu Sheng was a little unsure whether he was asking a genuine or a rhetorical question. He opened his mouth and was about to speak out when Jin Linkun put his arms around his back and said, “It’s not an illusion.”
Jin Linkun hugged the person with one hand, patted his back twice, lowered his head and kissed his forehead: “It’s not an illusion, you know?”
Yu Sheng closed his eyes and rest on his shoulder for a while.
Afterwards, Jin Linkun once tried to help. But after putting the pieces in backwards three times in a row before actually successfully inserting a single piece, Yu Sheng finally placed him aside and was responsible for keeping and observing silently.
The bedroom was quiet, and the young man sitting on the carpet had his eyes focused, holding small puzzle pieces and piecing them together bit by bit.
He didn’t even bother to take care of his boyfriend who was beside him who took the opportunity to kiss him twice.
Mr. Jin and Ms. Li quietly got up in the middle of the night and found that their son was not on the sofa.
The bedroom door was half closed, letting out a soft light.
Looking through the crack in the door, they saw that the sweet boy their son had brought back was already sleeping soundly on his shoulders. His long eyelashes were closed quietly, and he was carefully covered with a soft blanket.
Their son, who has said he will never touch Lego since he was five years old, was trying his best to piece the puzzle pieces together with great effort and seriousness.
If he makes a mistake, he’ll dismantle and start over without any impatience.
The parents are very cooperative and glanced at each other, no one said a word and they quietly returned to their room.
___
Although they confused their son’s birthday with the anniversary of the disappearance of neutrinos in nuclear reactors, the Jin parents were obviously not the kind of people who would change their itinerary just to celebrate their son’s birthday.
Late at night on the 6th, Mr. Jin and Ms. Li, who were about to leave in a hurry, sneaked into the bedroom, pulled their son and his friend together, and the family took the time to sing a birthday song together.
There is a time difference of half a world between Broadway and China. With an early morning flight, Jin father and mother did not let their two children go through the trouble and called for a taxi.
Unexpectedly, after packing their luggage and walking to the living room, they found two lunch boxes that had been prepared on the countertop.
They are made of wood, with sealing buckles, the soup is drained out, and they are neatly stacked together.
There is also a very exquisite hand-painted illustration drawn on it.
Mr. Jin, who was about to go out, was pulled back by Ms. Li. He studied the two lunch boxes for a while, gathered his luggage, and carried the lunch boxes in his hands.
The security door clicked, and the room that had been filled with people all day became quiet again.
The Lego bricks have been put together, and there are no flaws except that Jin Linkun held the blueprints upside down.
Jin Linkun had already regained his right to occupy the bedroom by default. He lay on the bed with Yu Sheng in his arms, gently rubbing his neck every so often.
The force on his shoulder was a little heavy, and Jin Linkun tightened his arm again, lowered his head and whispered in his ear: “My parents took the lunch boxes away and asked me to say thank you.”
Jin Linkun held up his cell phone and scrolled through the messages: “They said it’s okay to bring soup next time, because after all, they couldn’t hold it back and ate it all on the road.”
Yu Sheng: “…”
They got up too early, it was not bright yet. Jin Linkun stood up and turned off the lights. As soon as he lay down, he heard Yu Sheng’s voice: “Next time?”
“Yes.” Jin Linkun smiled, “Even if they have a heart that yearns for freedom, they will still come back several times a year.”
Jin Linkun divided the quilt between the two of them and touched Yu Sheng’s hair: “Will you still prepare delicious food for them?”
The breath against the hollow of his neck paused quietly for a moment, then he rubbed his head against the short hair of his neck twice before nodding lightly.
Jin Linkun lowered his head and closed his eyes.
The two of them had just finished singing the birthday song in unison, and the familiar melody still rang in their ears. Jin Linkun lay in bed for a long time, unable to sleep, so he simply hugged Yu Sheng and sang to him.
The person in his arms didn’t speak and seemed to have fallen asleep already.
Jin Linkun hugged him for a while, smiled, and touched his little friend’s hair: “Of course there will be a next time. Mom and dad like you very much.”
___
Because they stayed up in the middle of the night for a five-minute emergency birthday celebration, the two of them overslept the next day.
It was noon when he opened his eyes. Jin Linkun turned on his phone, and there was already a row of unread messages on it.
His friends at the summer camp were very considerate and sent him various comprehensive exercises and ultra-difficult competition questions from their schools as birthday gifts. Liang Yifan also specially sent a voice message to recommend a complete user guide for him.
“Pull Sheng-ge to learn Chinese together, hug Sheng-ge to learn maths together, and then go to bed to learn English.”
Liang Yifan gave him a very complete rundown of the plan: “Learn through fun and apply what you learn! Kunshen, think about it! Think about it carefully!”
Jin Linkun looked at his phone, confused: “What have I done recently?”
Yu Sheng had just woken up, and his thinking was still a little slow. He pressed his forehead and briefly recalled: “Did you tell them the English scores of our class?”
After all, this was the first time that he had taught someone and that someone had actually achieved results. Jin Linkun not only posted it on WeChat Moments, but also mentioned it to everyone in the summer camp, feigning to be unintentional.
___
After thinking about a group of good friends who were tortured by the “since A, B, D is wrong, so choose C” method of answering questions, Yu Sheng nodded and felt that there was nothing surprising about this matter: “To be honest, be grateful that they didn’t send you some ransomware virus, they’re already considered quite loyal.”
Everyone in the summer camp was still trying to retaliate against their Kunshen for their different treatment. When Class 7 heard that Duan Lei who heard from his good friend whom he had felt an instant connection with at first sight said that it is Teacher Jin’s birthday, the class started to celebrate in a lively manner, asking to treat their substitute teacher to a meal.
This time their class’ English score was good, and their overall score as a whole was significantly improved. Everyone’s situation at home was much better than before.
The sports committee and his family specially awarded him two hundred yuan and promised him a two-day weekend of fun. He became extremely arrogant in the group.
Lao He also thought this matter was quite meaningful and joined in the fun: Alright, the class fee for the last coming-of-age ceremony has not been used up yet.
They spent a lot of money last time they went hiking. The class monitor was a little surprised: We haven’t used it all yet? Are we so frugal?
Lao He: Yes, there’s enough for everyone to get a roast gluten skewer*.
*(
___
The students in Class 7 ignored Lao He and democratically decided to have dinner together.
When Yu Sheng came back after washing his face, he heard that everyone was going to meet up for a healthy barbecue buffet: “…what is that?”
“Gudugudu skewers, fragrant and healthy self-service barbecue.”
Jin Linkun read the name to him again: “Is this store in our back street?”
Even if there is, just because of this name, he would never go there with his reputation at stake.
Most of the people in the class seemed to have been there, and they were very interested, urging them to gather in half an hour. Yu Sheng wore a mask specially before going out with Jin Linkun.
They say they are repaying the hard work of their English tutor, but in fact they are a group of people who have been going almost crazy with their studies recently. In addition, they are full of joy at their improved English scores and have nowhere to vent their feelings. They want to find an opportunity to get together and go crazy.
In contrast to Yu Sheng, the people in Class 7 generally did not have an awe of Jin Linkun unlike in the summer camp. Jin Linkun blew out the candles and was hit head-on by a piece of cake.
Jin Linkun had been prepared. He specially wore an old sportswear today, pulled Yu Sheng out of the way of the cake, and quickly picked up the remaining half of the cake with quick hands: “Food is precious, they are the condensed sweat of the working people…”
Teacher Jin is right, the students no longer play around with the cake.
___
Jin Linkun took Yu Sheng and turned around. The next second, his sight was drowned by the colourful ribbons falling in front of him.
Truly hard to guard against.
Not all people come around this time, and the private room they reserved is not big. The door is closed, and the room turns into a sea of colourful ribbons in an instant.
Jin Linkun took off the bright little star ribbon on Yu Sheng’s head and looked at it carefully: “Friend, do you think this thing looks familiar…”
“It does look familiar.” Yu Sheng patted the ribbons off his body, “Send a ransomware virus to Liang Yifan later.”
The two people were so close and the sports committee was the one who had jumped up to surprise them with the ribbons. The direction was a bit off, and most of it fell on Yu Sheng.
The bag of ribbons given to Yu Sheng for his birthday was not wasted at all. It was all handed over to Duan Lei, through his brother at first sight, Liang Yifan, and gave Kunshen a new surprise.
The sports committee turned around and tried to run away. The group of people shouted: “Duan Lei bought it, the class monitor designed it, the student committee hid it, and the sports committee used it…”
The class cadres were collectively betrayed and couldn’t believe it: “Didn’t you guys unanimously voted for the idea? Where was the unity that was promised?!”
The unity of the class is nothing compared to their Sheng-ge’s rule.
The group of people suddenly had a quarrel.
The class committee leaned against the door and shivered, and suddenly heard the door ring.
The people inside the house couldn’t see outside, and they were so anxious that they shouted together: “No, don’t open the door first——”
Lao He happened to meet the director of the Education Department on the way to have a meal. He smiled and opened the door with his hand. He also praised the director who was preparing to come in to congratulate the students on their good results: “They are very sensible and make trouble now. Their hearts and minds are solely towards the pursuit of knowledge…”
As soon as the words fell, the two of them were already shocked to the ground by the last pot of colourful ribbons hidden at the back door.
A good meal finally turned into an hour and a half of quality education by the director of the Education Department.
Yao Qiang picked up a piece of ribbon and put it into the pocket held by their class monitor: “Why are you still keeping it? What’s the use of this thing?”
“Let’s just keep it.” The class monitor thought for a while and said, “Maybe in two months, there will be another lucky friend…”
Their class made a bit of noise, and afterwards they all came out to sweep the floor and gather the ribbons, attracting the attention of many diners.
This store is on the back street, and many students come here to eat, and they often choose to have dinner in this nearby area.
The Sports Committee held a handful of colourful ribbons and poured them into the sack. He was about to go to the other side to help clean up when a sarcastic voice suddenly sounded from beside him: “What’s going on? You can’t study, so you’re here to work?”
The voice is not familiar, the sports committee raised his head and did not recognize the leader. But he does recognize Chang Chi who was following behind.
Ever since he was forced to memorise vocabulary words under the basket during that game, Chang Chi would avoid their class’. In addition, the two grades were not in the same building, so they had not seen each other for several days.
“Where’s Sheng-ge?”
Duan Lei just came back from washing his hands and lowered his voice to the class monitor: “The leader is their boss, Shan Xian. They all call him Master Xian. It is said that he is on the same level as our Sheng-ge…”
There is no secret about this kind of thing among schools, especially if it is a gossipy one, it can spread throughout the entire student body in half a day.
Chang Chi was somewhat famous in his course at that time, but he failed in a simple match, and people laughed at him and his circle of friends for several days. Today he came over for dinner next door and drank two bottles of wine. When he heard the commotion, he specially called a group of people to try to get his face back.
“Go to Sheng-ge and tell him not to come over yet.”
The class monitor blocked the person behind him and lowered his voice to the student committee: “He is still striving to be the valedictorian, so he can’t have any demerits.”
They usually go out to make fun of their Sheng-ge, but if there is such a difficult person to deal with, their class still doesn’t want Yu Sheng to be provoked.
The student committee seemed to have something to say: “But——”
“But what?”
The class monitor became serious: “You want to let Sheng-ge deal with everything for you? This kind of person is very difficult to deal with. If you beat him up today, you might be beaten up tomorrow, you know?”
“I know.” The student committee nodded, “But…”
The student committee is good at everything, but talks too much nonsense.
The monitor yelled at him: “No buts!”
Student Committee: “…”
A group of people agreed that their sports committee had had several fights and had some experience, so he stood in front of them: “What do you want?”
Shan Xian is two years older than them. He has been in the engineering course for five years and is also a graduate this year.
There are also many sports students in No. 3 High School, but compared with this group of people who hang out on the streets all year round, they are undoubtedly not good enough.
Shan Xian does not take these students seriously at all.
Whatever Chang Chi had caused, even though this kid was so cowardly that he didn’t even dare to reveal his opponent’s name, the whole group of them were ridiculed for several days, they couldn’t even recover from this situation.
He had never spoken a word until now. He glanced at the group of students still wearing school uniforms: “Who’s the leader?”
This person does not look like he is easy to deal with. The class monitor felt that this kind of matter could only be solved by putting on a united front. Without answering him, he lowered his voice and assigned tasks: “The sports committee will pester him. We will find a way to deal with the rest. The student committee will find someone…”
The sports committee member took off his coat and threw it to Duan Lei, then flexed his wrist twice.
The student committee raised his hand in determination.
___
The class monitor was making preparations before taking action, and he couldn’t stand it anymore: “Okay, okay, hurry up, but what?”
“But our director of the Education Department and Lao He haven’t left yet.”
The student committee turned around and took a look: “They met with the principal of the School of Engineering and Technology. They came back together just now. They are sitting in our private room, eating our barbecue, chatting happily with our Sheng-ge and Teacher Jin… “
