Chapter 85#

The sudden rain had just stopped, and pedestrians were rushing to the subway station. No one noticed what was happening in this small corner.

Yan Heqing’s voice wasn’t loud, but it was enough for the four of them to hear.

Him, Lu Lin, as well as Lin Fengzhi and Gu Xingye.

Lin Fengzhi’s blood flowed backward throughout his body, from head to toe. His entire face was lifeless, frighteningly pale. His hanging hands quietly clenched tight. His heart kept sinking, bottomless, unable to see the bottom. His whole person felt light and airy, even forgetting to breathe.

The only hope was Lu Lin, who was only a few steps away.

Lin Fengzhi’s eyes were completely red. He gritted his teeth tightly, looking at Lu Lin, desperate longing burning in his eyes.

Deny it!

Deny it quickly, Uncle Lu!

Yan Heqing is not the person you like. How could he be the person you like!

The whole world can like him, but only you… cannot, must not, are not allowed to like him!

At this moment, Lu Lin walked over.

Lin Fengzhi’s heart trembled along with him. His gaze was filled with heavy longing, waiting for Lu Lin’s final judgment.

Lu Lin approached.

From beginning to end, he didn’t glance at Lin Fengzhi once. His large hand landed on the top of Yan Heqing’s head.

A few strands of hair were curled.

“Does it curl when humidity is high?”

In the deep and magnetic voice, there was a familiarity that could be called intimacy.

Yan Heqing let Lu Lin stroke his hair, the corners of his lips turning up, “Fell from the treetop, it doesn’t matter.”

Their relationship was self-evident.

Lin Fengzhi’s heart hit the ground, shattered completely. The last bit of strength was drained from his body, and he almost fell straight to the ground.

But he didn’t. One of his arms was pulled by Yan Heqing. Yan Heqing looked sideways and introduced him very lightly, “He is my twin brother. After the accident at home, he and I were adopted by different families. We only met a while ago.”

There was no life in Lin Fengzhi’s eyes anymore. It was strange; usually full of tears, he didn’t shed a single tear at this moment.

Just staring straight and unscrupulously at Lu Lin.

Lu Lin still didn’t care about Lin Fengzhi. He lowered his eyes slightly, unperturbed, “Is your brother going in the same car with us?”

Lin Fengzhi’s name was Yan Heqing’s brother.

His smooth fingernails almost pierced his palm.

Lin Fengzhi finally spoke at this moment, “No need! I have my own car!”

His voice was a bit louder. Lu Lin finally looked at him directly, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. Lin Fengzhi panicked immediately. He pulled his hand out of Yan Heqing’s palm forcefully, biting his lower lip, “My… my car is arriving soon…”

He couldn’t continue, said to Gu Xingye, “Leaving.”

Turned around and strode forward.

Gu Xingye took everything in, followed silently, only pausing slightly when passing Yan Heqing, and mentioned the address of the ice hockey rink.

The school gate that was crowded just now only had a few students talking and laughing as they went in and out.

Lu Lin wanted to clasp Yan Heqing’s hand and put it in his pocket at this moment, but the occasion was inappropriate, so he restrained himself.

He lowered his eyebrows, a smile on his lips, “Shall we go too?”

Yan Heqing didn’t know what he was thinking. After a second or two, he raised his eyes and nodded.

Getting into the car, the driver raised the soundproof partition in advance, isolating the front and rear seats.

The not-so-narrow rear seat space became smaller with the curtain of the soundproof partition drawn, only faint light coming in from the windows on both sides.

Lu Lin turned on the ceiling light and turned up the heater. Only then did he do what he had always wanted to do, taking Yan Heqing’s left hand and rubbing it in his palm.

“Always so cold. I know an old Chinese medicine doctor.” He didn’t mention what happened just now at all. “Go see him when you have time.”

Yan Heqing nodded, “Okay.”

Lu Lin smiled, “So obedient.” His upper body suddenly leaned forward and kissed the corner of Yan Heqing’s eye, “In front of me, it’s okay to be a little willful.”

There was still a warm touch at the corner of his eye. The word willful was too far from Yan Heqing. He was in a trance for a second, meeting Lu Lin’s gaze with doubt, “For example?”

Thick emotions condensed in the bottom of Lu Lin’s eyes, “For example, you can ask me to do many things.”

The corners of Yan Heqing’s lips raised slightly, “No need to ask, you have already done them.”

The hand in his palm finally had warmth. Lu Lin let go then. He changed the subject, “I have a suite in the Peking University family residential area, which has been empty. I plan to renovate it. Come with me to have a look after school tomorrow and give some opinions.”

The Peking University family residential area was right next to Peking University, with a gate directly entering the university.

The house was also an old building from many years ago, but the environment was worlds apart from the community Yan Heqing rented. The unit price had started at six figures per square meter in recent years.

Yan Heqing knew Lu Lin’s purpose for renovation was to let him move there.

For Lu Lin, a house worth millions or tens of millions was nothing. But that house had always been there. Lu Lin proposing to renovate it at this time, Yan Heqing always felt there was a reason.

It was just that he couldn’t think of this reason for the time being.

Lu Lin only said to let him be a reference and didn’t explicitly ask him to move there, so Yan Heqing agreed.

At this time in the Lin family’s car, Lin Fengzhi lowered his head and stared at the tips of his shoes since getting in the car. His lost soul appearance was obvious.

Gu Xingye also didn’t make a sound.

Lin Fengzhi’s loss of composure gave him a guess, but it was too unbelievable, and he couldn’t be sure for the time being.

Lin Fengzhi didn’t know how to hide his emotions at all. If he really liked Lu Lin, how could he hide it so well that he knew nothing about it?

But from another angle, to make Lin Fengzhi, who was like a blank sheet of paper, hide it to the extreme, how fervent must his love for Lu Lin be?

Gu Xingye fell into deep thought.

Arriving at the ice hockey rink parking lot, just as they got out of the car, Lu Lin and Yan Heqing also arrived.

The car stopped opposite. Lin Fengzhi stared over almost like a radar.

He saw Lu Lin get out of the car first to protect the roof, fearing Yan Heqing would bump into it. His lower lip was completely bitten through by him.

Is Yan Heqing made of paper or glass? Will he break or die if touched?

Lin Fengzhi knew he was jealous.

He was crazily jealous.

Never having seen Lu Lin’s gentleness, once seen, he wanted to possess it even more.

There was a strong taste of iron in his mouth. The moment Yan Heqing got out of the car, Lin Fengzhi turned and strode into the elevator first.

Not even waiting for Gu Xingye, he pressed the elevator button frantically. He didn’t want to see the scene of Lu Lin and Yan Heqing side by side for a second.

Gu Xingye sighed helplessly, went to the trunk to get Lin Fengzhi’s ice hockey equipment, and then greeted Lu Lin and Yan Heqing, enthusiastic and sunny, “There is a seafood restaurant next to the ice hockey rink. I ate there once, the taste is good. Go there to eat after this?”

Since eating seafood caught by himself at sea, Yan Heqing rarely ate seafood on the market again. The difference was too big. But he didn’t refuse immediately, looking at Lu Lin first.

This action pierced deeply into Gu Xingye’s eyes, enough to represent Yan Heqing’s difference towards Lu Lin.

With a comparison, the frustration Gu Xingye felt several times when facing Yan Heqing, which he had never experienced before, set off waves in his heart again.

Lu Lin had no feeling for seafood. Meeting Yan Heqing’s gaze, he knew Yan Heqing felt the same as him, “We have an appointment tonight.”

Gu Xingye smiled, didn’t say more, turned and led the way.

Entering the elevator to the first floor, Gu Xingye booked the venue by phone in advance. There were only a few people skating in the huge ice rink.

Seeing Gu Xingye, a person skated over quickly from a distance.

It was a boy with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He grinned, “Seems like not enough people.”

It was one of Gu Xingye’s friends.

Gu Xingye smiled, “How many short? Ask the boss to make up the number.”

The boy probably knew Lin Fengzhi. He looked at Yan Heqing and Lu Lin curiously a few times, “They are coming too?”

Gu Xingye nodded.

The boy gestured a 2, “Two.”

Gu Xingye was about to go find the boss to make up the number. At this time, Lu Lin spoke, “Don’t mind, my friends can.”

Gu Xingye stopped, his smile polite, “That would be even better.”

Lu Lin went aside to make a call. Gu Xingye’s gaze fell on Yan Heqing again. The ice hockey rink provided equipment, which could be rented or bought. He originally planned to give Yan Heqing a set, but now with Lu Lin here, he swallowed his words, pointed out the location of the shop to Yan Heqing, and went to find Lin Fengzhi with his things.

Lu Lin came back and followed Yan Heqing to the shop.

The cheapest ice hockey equipment, an adult set started at five figures. Renting was much more cost-effective, charged by the hour, a hundred or so for a game, compensation for damage according to the price.

Lu Lin rented four sets.

Chu Ziyu and Xie Yunjie hadn’t arrived. Lu Lin and Yan Heqing took the equipment to the changing room first.

There were quite a few people in the changing room. Yan Heqing went in, observing calmly, and soon found his target. The boy sitting next to Lin Fengzhi changing ice skates was handsome and elegant, with a pear vortex when he smiled.

It was Cheng Jian’s future true love, Ge Tongyuan.

Ge Tongyuan was talking to Lin Fengzhi. Suddenly Lin Fengzhi looked up and stared at the door. He followed the gaze and exclaimed softly, “I used to think you were exquisite enough, Fengzhi. I didn’t expect there to be a boy more exquisite than you! Is he your university classmate? And the other handsome guy is a teacher, teaching assistant? Damn, too handsome. If my sister saw him, she would definitely rush to ask for his WeChat!”

Lin Fengzhi was stabbed again. He said nothing, lowered his head and pulled the ice skate laces hard to tie them.

Ge Tongyuan made another sound of surprise. He assumed Yan Heqing was Lin Fengzhi’s university classmate, “Your classmate doesn’t seem to know how to wear equipment. He doesn’t know how to play ice hockey?”

Lin Fengzhi remained silent. Gu Xingye, who had put on his equipment, walked over and explained simply, “He doesn’t know how. Just playing casually today.”

Ge Tongyuan smiled with white teeth, “Great, playing with novices is the most interesting.”

Lin Fengzhi’s gaze drifted uncontrollably to Lu Lin again. With this look, his chest felt like a big stone was pressing down heavily, making it difficult to breathe.

On the bench diagonally opposite, Yan Heqing was sitting, and Lu Lin was kneeling on one knee, lowering his head to tie his ice skate laces.

“Press the tongue into the trouser leg. Tie the laces looser on the instep and tighten them at the ankle. This way the ice skates will be very tight.” Lu Lin explained patiently, tying the laces tightly for Yan Heqing, “The tighter the ice skates, the smoother the skating.”

Lin Fengzhi bit his lower lip tightly. Lu Lin actually, actually knelt down to tie Yan Heqing’s shoelaces…

Ge Tongyuan was still exclaiming, “Wow, the handsome guy is so patient and gentle! Are they lovers? Too compatible!”

“Will you die if you say one less sentence?!” Lin Fengzhi finally couldn’t bear it, turned his head and roared in a low voice, then got up and skated out of the changing room without looking at anyone.

Ge Tongyuan stared innocently, shrugging at Gu Xingye, “Did he get dumped?”

Gu Xingye smiled, “Pre-holiday syndrome, probably.”

Not long after, Chu Ziyu and Xie Yunjie sped over.

Playing ice hockey was a sport they played in high school! Lu Lin suddenly called them to play ice hockey! No other reason than Yan Heqing.

And Lu Lin playing a match with young college students…

One stopped sleeping and crawled out of bed, the other rushed from the company to join the fun.

On the ice rink, Lu Lin was teaching Yan Heqing how to skate. Before the match started, they hadn’t put on helmets yet.

Chu Ziyu and Xie Yunjie changed equipment at light speed and skated over.

“Xiao Heqing!” Chu Ziyu was about to hug Yan Heqing enthusiastically.

Lu Lin blocked him directly. Chu Ziyu almost fell, grabbed the railing to stabilize himself, smiling playfully, “Hehe, next time you’re not here, I’ll hug secretly!”

Seeing Chu Ziyu so familiar with Yan Heqing, Lin Fengzhi guessed that Lu Lin had even taken Yan Heqing to meet his friends. His teeth were sour inside and out.

When Gu Xingye assigned him and Yan Heqing to the same team, he said loudly: “I want to go to the other team!”

He wanted to prove to Lu Lin that at least in ice hockey, he was better than Yan Heqing!

He glared at Yan Heqing angrily, “You have no objection, right?”

Yan Heqing also looked at him at this time, revealing a shallow smile, “No.”
