Chapter 83 - Rejected confession–I don’t like men.
I Don't Want You To Be Responsible!
When Luoyang finished cooking the noodles and came out of the kitchen, he saw Ye Shuo standing naked in front of his wardrobe, looking through his clothes.
Why didnât this stinky boy take his clothes before washing himself? Luoyangâs eyes narrowed.
Hearing the footsteps, Ye Shuo turned his head to the side and grinned at Luoyang, revealing his white teeth: âProfessor Luo, which should I wear?â
â... Anything! â Luoyang turned his head to the side and went back to the kitchen. âIf I come out with the noodles and youâre still here, you donât have to eat the noodles anymore.â This sentence was spoken very gently and warmly, but in Ye Shuoâs ears, it was a great weapon that could kill.
When Luoyang came out from the kitchen again with a large bowl of noodles, Ye Shuo was already dressed. He chose a white sweater and put it on his body. On the outside, he was wrapped in a beige wadded jacket. The wadded jacket had no zipper and sat wide open in his chest. His bottom was one of Luoyangâs sports pants. Itâs white and a little washed out.
But Ye Shuo did not mind. Instead, he was very happy to wear it. The thought that it was the clothes that Luoyang wore a few years ago made him very happy.
In fact, when Ye Shuo wore it, he looked even younger, like a little child who had not grown up. Anyway, it looked much better than the suit he wore that day.
Ye Shuoâs hair was still wet. Luoyang found him another dry towel âWipe your hair.â
âEn.â Ye Shuo had seen the bowl of noodles that Luoyang had just brought out. There were tomatoes, cucumber slices, and two poached eggs looming in the noodles. The red and green color made the food looked quite appetizing. He rubbed his hair with the towel as he stared at the bowl of noodles and gulped.
âEat.â Luoyang happened to catch a glimpse of him gulping. Thinking of he said that he hadnât eaten anything yet, he was a little worried. He pushed the bowl over to him. âDonât eat too fast. Be careful.â
âEn.â Ye Shuo, with a towel on his head, couldnât wait to pick up the chopsticks and send the noodles to his mouth.
Although he was wolfing down the food, it could still be seen from his eating movement that he usually had some table manners.
A picture flashed in Luoyangâs mind. At that time, he just learned how to cook. The first food he made food was noodles. They were sticking together and was becoming a dough dumpling, the poached eggs were scattered and almost turned the soup into eggdrop soup. However, the man was still enjoying it and he praised it endlessly as he ate: âItâs delicious! Yummy! Yangyang, I want to eat what you cook all my life! â
Ah... A lifetime is so long, you canât even persist for a few years, how could it be so easy to live together for a lifetime.
When he realized that his mind had wandered again while watching this stinky boy, Luoyang suddenly felt a little annoyed. Itâs been so long. Why? Was that person still in his heart?
This kind of behavior was usually called âasking for itâ by people right? But how could he just forget about his feelings of several years? Although Ye Lang was such a jerk, he was a past now. Now, when he thought of the past, it was not as painful as it used to be, and he could even laugh at himself.
After all, it was also the first time in his life that he had put in all his feeling.
Luoyang lifted his lips and smiled weakly. It seemed that he was becoming stronger and stronger.
Ye Shuo buried himself in the noodles and began to eat very fast. The sound of slurping showed that he was hungry, but after a while, he slowed down. Later, even the chopsticks werenât sending the noodles to his mouth anymore.
Luoyang was surprised to think that he was full so soon. He wondered why was this young man eating so little?â
As a result, the child burst into tears.
Yes, He was crying!!!
Luoyang was a gentleman after all. He leaned down slightly, stared at Ye Shuo and tried to soften his voice. âWhatâs wrong?â
Ye Shuo wiped a tear and choked, âThis is the first time I have eaten such a warm meal!â
â...â
Luoyang was speechless.
âEven my mother didnât cook for me personally. Our meals were takeaway, or we hired a housemaid. The food tasted very bland.â Ye Shuo wiped the tears and smiled at Luoyang. âProfessor Luo, you are very kind to me. I will learn from your classes! So as to not let down your kindness to me!â
Luoyang: â...ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
From that day on, during the whole winter vacation, Ye Shuo came to Luoyang with a series of bioengineering textbooks, materials and other things related to bioengineering to have Luoyang help him make up for his missed lessons. On the other hand, he also restored the habit of going to Luoyangâs classes. He would sit in the middle of the first row and stare straight at him. Luoyang also couldnât say anything, after all, Ye Shuo was the one who gets the highest score in the exam every time.
In the name of learning, Ye Shuo strengthened his position in Luoyangâs heart.
The confession happened just before Luoyang was about to move. Ye Shuo asked Luoyang to go to the lawn. He looked at him awkwardly, not knowing how he should speak.
Seeing that he wasnât talking for a long while, Luoyang raised his sleeve and looked at his watch. âDonât you have something to say? If you havenât thought about it, wait till you think about it. I have something else to do. I have to go first.â
âWait!â Ye Shuo blushed. He rushed up and grabbed Luoyangâs wrist. He was frightened by the look in Luoyangâs eyes and quickly released his grip. He swallowed his saliva and declared, âLuoyang...â
Luoyang interrupted him: âCall me Professor Luo!â
â...â Ye Shuo hesitated, but he still gathered his courage and said, âLuoyang, I like you!â
Luoyangâs expression at that time was not surprising at all, it was even slightly strange. Ye Shuo cleared his throat and continued, âI like you, I want to be with you, I want to take care of you, I will always make you smile and let your face always have a smile!â
Luoyang still had a calm and incredible look. Ye Shuo bravely reached out and held Luoyangâs hand. âPlease date me!â
Luoyang glanced at the teenager in front of him and opened his mouth gently. He did not respond to his request, but simply asked indifferently, âIs that all?â
Ye Shuo nodded and looked at Luoyang expectantly.
He had done very well over the past two years. He also had good feelings for himself. He shouldnât reject him.
Ye Shuo hadnât finished his thinking when Luoyang answered him with a sentence: âI refuse.â
âWhy?â Ye Shuo questioned incredibly.
Luoyang returned to his hand and calmly said, âNo whys, I donât like men.â
!!!
Ye Shuo was stunned at first, and then shouted, âImpossible! You- â his voice suddenly stopped and he secretly congratulated himself for not making this slip of his tongue, and then added a sentence, âYou are so good to me, you never smiled at other students, let alone cooked for them... You must also like me, otherwise, why are you so kind to me?!â
Luoyangâs long eyelashes moved slightly and he said softly, âThatâs because you look like my former lover, so Iâm good to you. Nevertheless, I did not expect you to get the wrong idea. I would advise you to dispel this idea as soon as possible while it is just beginning to develop. I didnât accept you so as to respect you. If I do, I will treat you as someone elseâs substitute. Would you like to be someone elseâs substitute?â
Ye Shuo was speechless with these few words. He did not expect Luoyang to say such a thing. He was angry, sad, and his chest heaved. He bit teeth, not knowing what he should say.
Luoyang patted him on the shoulder and said softly, âYou are still young. You donât know what love is. Interact with girls more. Itâs the best way to do this before you fall on this road. Iâm your teacher. I wonât hurt you. Listen to me. Go back and have a good sleep. After that, donât attend my lessons anymore. Anyway, with your learning ability, you can graduate safely without my credits in this subject.â
After that, Luoyang turned around and left.
Ye Shuo shouted at his retreating shadow: âIâm not young, Iâm already twenty-one! I can be responsible for my actions!â
Luoyangâs body stopped for a while, but he still disappeared in his vision.
Ye Shuo stood on the runway in a daze for a long time, then turned around and shouted at the lawn, then started running vigorously around the race track.
He hadnât forgotten about elder brother!!!
But he couldnât say that otherwise, he would expose himself, hence, he couldnât refute Luoyang saying that he âdoesnât like menâ. He really wanted to say that he was willing to be a substitute. But at that moment, it was too hard for him to say âI agree to be a substituteâ.
In fact, Ye Shuo felt his heart ached when he heard Luoyang said so. For years, he had been secretly in love with Luoyang. He himself also didnât know why he liked him. He only know it was impossible for him to like others now. The name Luoyang had been deeply branded in his heart, and he couldnât get rid of it.
Now it was hard for him to summon up the courage to confess to him. Not only did he refuse him, and he also said that he didnât like men. He even told him that if he wanted to be his lover, he could only be a substitute.
Yes, he believed that he would compromise in the end to be the substitute for his elder brother, but shouldnât he give him some time to accept it?
When Ye Shuo ran around the field and collapsed on the lawn after 20 laps, he was huffing and puffing, Luoyang had already packed up his things in the school apartment. He only had two large bags of luggage. He found a taxi and drove all the way to the rental place he had just found two days before.
