Chapter 220.2

Editor: Princess

Cheng Yu understood the logic, but he just wasn’t very willing.

He had never gone to see a movie alone with anyone other than Lin An Lan. Would this be too devastating? If it were him and Lin An Lan went to see a movie with someone else, he would tear the movie theater down!

And this movie was almost two hours long, plus travel time, it would be at least three and a half hours. He was reluctant to give up that time. With those three and a half hours, wouldn’t it be nice to do homework together with Lin An Lan?

How warm and cozy that would be!

Seeing that he still wouldn’t agree, Xu Zhe provoked him: [You better think carefully. If Brother Lin doesn’t realize he likes you, he might end up liking someone else in the future. Then every day he’ll be holding hands with other girls, kissing them, hugging them from time to time, making loving lunches for them…]

Cheng Yu: !!!

Cheng Yu instantly made his decision: [Go!!! Let’s go!!!]

What a joke! He didn’t even have the qualification to hold hands with Lin An Lan right now, so he had to be more proactive. Otherwise, if Lin An Lan really ended up holding hands with other girls in the future, he couldn’t just chop off their hands!

Cheng Yu felt that it would be too cruel. At the wedding, the girl would probably call him “brother” affectionately and thank him for taking care of Lin An Lan all these years. That sourness, he was afraid he couldn’t bear it.

Xu Zhe: [That’s right. Now go tell Brother Lin.]

Cheng Yu: …

He felt guilty, extremely guilty. This feeling was like he was cheating on Lin An Lan behind his back, but Lin An Lan wouldn’t even give him a railway track to cheat on!

He hesitated for a long while, and only when school was almost over did he say to Lin An Lan quietly, “An Lan, I won’t be going home with you today?”

Lin An Lan naturally noticed that he hadn’t been paying attention in class and that had been playing with his phone all along. He just didn’t expect Cheng Yu to say this to him.

“What’s wrong? Do you have something to do?”

Cheng Yu nodded, “A small matter.”

“What matter?” Lin An Lan asked him.

Cheng Yu twisted and turned, looking awkward and uncomfortable, “Well, Xu Zhe asked me to see a movie.”

Lin An Lan was stunned for a moment and looked at him in surprise, almost unable to believe it, “You agreed?”

Cheng Yu said what Xu Zhe had taught him, “He said no one’s home today, so he doesn’t want to go home too early. He’d be too lonely alone, so I just…”

Lin An Lan instantly felt angry, annoyed, and aggrieved. Xu Zhe would be lonely alone, but wouldn’t he be lonely going home alone now?!

Xu Zhe didn’t want to go home too early, so he would go accompany him! At this time, why didn’t he think of going to find Xu Sheng! Wasn’t Xu Sheng his older cousin?!

“I understand.” He turned his head and began packing his school bag coldly.

Cheng Yu was afraid he was unhappy and asked him, “An Lan, are you angry?”

“No.”

“I’ll come back quickly.” Cheng Yu said softly.

Lin An Lan’s hand holding the book almost crushed the book. It wasn’t “I won’t go”, and it wasn’t “then you come with me”, but “I’ll come back quickly.”

Lin An Lan felt like his heart had been squeezed with a row of lemon juice, sour and bitter, yet also angry.

“There’s no need.” He said deliberately, “Take your time watching. Don’t rush.”

“You don’t like me going to see movies with other people?” Cheng Yu asked him carefully.

Lin An Lan was stunned for a moment, but then denied it quickly, “I don’t.”

Cheng Yu looked at his lowered profile and was silent for a moment, then said gently and slowly, “But I will always go to see movies with other people, just like you will always go to see movies with other people too, your girlfriend, my boyfriend.”

Lin An Lan unconsciously froze for a moment.

Cheng Yu didn’t say anything more. He silently packed his school bag and then walked out with him.

He had the driver take a detour to go to No. 4 Middle School where Xu Zhe was. Xu Zhe had been waiting outside the school gate for a long time. When Cheng Yu got out of the car, Xu Zhe saw him from afar and excitedly walked over, putting his hand on his shoulder.

Lin An Lan watched, his heart souring.

But this was normal. They would slowly walk out of each other’s worlds, just like Cheng Yu said. They would always go to see movies with other people, his girlfriend, his boyfriend. They would no longer be each other’s closest person, no longer be within each other’s reach.

So was Cheng Yu trying to divert his attention?

Or was he trying to get used to making contact with others?

He had rejected Cheng Yu and said it so decisively, so Cheng Yu naturally shouldn’t hang himself on his tree. He naturally should try to make contact with others, or… fall in love with others.

Xu Zhe might not be the best, but at this time, he was the most suitable existence to help him divert his attention.

Lin An Lan watched quietly, sitting silently in the car without saying a word.

The driver rarely saw him and Cheng Yu separated and smiled, “An Lan, why didn’t you go play with Xiao Yu?”

“I’m not suitable.” Lin An Lan said softly, “He alone is enough.”

He leaned against the window and looked outside. The driver drove very fast, passing Cheng Yu and Xu Zhe who were walking on the road. They were talking and laughing, looking very happy, then they were left behind, becoming just a fleeting glimpse on his path forward.

Lin An Lan felt that perhaps life was like this. Meeting too early might not be the best thing, because meeting too early might mean being too far apart in the end.

He returned home, listlessly and coldly entering the house with a gloomy face.

Cheng Feng rarely came home early. And seeing him looking like life had no meaning, he asked him, “What’s wrong? What’s with this look? Who bullied you?”

“No one.” Lin An Lan was too lazy to pay attention to him.

“No one, my foot.” Cheng Feng walked in front of him and looked at his little face full of unhappiness. “Your brows are furrowed like little mountains. Someone definitely bullied you. Let me guess, it’s that boy Cheng Yu, right? Besides him, no one else could make you this upset.”

As he said this, he was surprised to discover that his son hadn’t come back with Lin An Lan, which was really rare. Weren’t these two brothers inseparable? Either they came back together, or they both didn’t come back. How come one came back today while the other didn’t?

“Did Cheng Yu have a fight with you?”

Lin An Lan was already unhappy because of Cheng Yu’s situation. And now being questioned like this by him, he only felt more annoyed. Annoyed, angry, sad, and aggrieved, several emotions intertwined. He was too lazy to pretend in front of him anymore and glared at Cheng Feng, “You’re so annoying!”

After saying this, he pushed past Cheng Feng and walked toward the staircase.

How had Cheng Feng ever seen Lin An Lan like this? This little cotton-padded jacket of his had always been obedient and sensible, never losing his temper with family members at home. Even when he was sick, he spoke gently and softl. y, acting coquettishly. How could he be like now, even saying he was annoying! It must be that troublesome son of his who caused this!

He picked up his phone and called Cheng Yu. This child had really grown up. He had now even learned to bully his little brother! Look what he had made his little brother become!!!

He didn’t doubt for a second that Lin An Lan had bullied Cheng Yu. What a joke! Could someone like Cheng Yu be bullied? And by his obedient and sensible little cotton-padded jacket no less?!

If Lin An Lan really had bullied Cheng Yu, then Cheng Yu must have done something wrong first. He deserved to be hit!
