After an unknown amount of time, heavy rain washed over the entire city, covering up all the noise.

The two young men on the balcony stared into the distance for a long time. No one mentioned going back to the house, and no one spoke.

It was only then that Gu Beilu realized that they seemed to have been like this since childhood. They could say nothing when they were together, but they just felt comfortable.

He leaned against the glass door frame, his hands in his pockets, lost in thought.

After Yu Xi finished his yogurt, he placed the cup on the railing. Rainwater dripped down the eaves, and the cup was soon filled with water and overflowed. He was so engrossed in watching that he didn’t even notice the rain splashing on his clothes.

Gu Beilu dragged the man back and reached out to shake off the water droplets on his clothes.

Yu Xi was pulled like this, and when he lowered his head, he found that the corner of his clothes was wet. He stuck out his tongue and smiled embarrassedly.

No matter how many times Gu Beilu said it, he would still lean on the sink and get his clothes wet when he washed his face and brushed his teeth every day.

Later, Gu Beilu came up with a plan. When he was brushing his teeth at night, Gu Beilu would put his arms around his waist from behind and hold him, preventing his body from leaning against the sink.

This habit continued for many years. Even if the two of them did not sleep together at night, Gu Beilu would come to their house and wait until he finished brushing his teeth before going back.

When they were little, they were seen doing this by Yu’s mother, who said that Gu Beilu was more like Yu Xi’s mother than she was, and that he looked as if he was just about to put Yu Xi in his pocket and take him home.

Later, they found that the two children really liked to play together, so both families prepared two sets of children’s daily necessities, which was equivalent to the children having two homes, and they could visit each other freely.

Yu Xi thought this was an interesting thing, and turned to Gu Beilu and said, “I’m sure I’ll get my clothes wet every day when you’re not around.”

There were several times when Gu Beilu went far away to participate in competitions, and he had to change into pajamas after brushing his teeth at night.

Gu Beilu seemed to have heard something incredible, his brows suddenly turned serious, as if he was facing a formidable enemy.

“What do you mean I’m not here?” Why is he not here? What is Yu Xi thinking?

Seeing that he seemed to have misunderstood, Yu Xi scratched his face and explained, “It’s not that you’re not here, it’s that after we’re not together…”

Gu Beilu became more serious, pulled out his hand and stood up straight: “Where are you going?”

“When we go to college or work in the future, we may not be together. It’s not like now that we go to school and go home together, eat together, and do homework together every day…”

Yu Xi hadn’t really thought about it, but subconsciously believed that when he grew up, he would leave home and live independently. Just like a mermaid, when he grows up, he can’t stay with his parents anymore, and has to go to a new sea to start a new life.

But after I said it, I suddenly felt like something was wrong, so the tail end of my voice became smaller and smaller, and I lost confidence.

Hearing these words coming out of Yu Xi’s mouth, Gu Beilu felt anxious.

The jokes his parents had played a year ago now came back to haunt him.

Yu Xi raised his head slightly and met Gu Beilu’s gaze. He felt that Gu Beilu’s seriousness this time was different from before, but he couldn’t understand the extra emotion.

After waiting for a long time, Gu Beilu finally asked him.

“Xixi,” he wrapped his big hand around Yuxi’s hand,

“Are you thinking of falling in love early? ”

Before, their parents always joked that they would not be together every day after they found girlfriends, so they went to accompany their girlfriends.

Originally, he didn’t take this nonsense to heart, but he just realized that Yu Xi didn’t seem to think so.

Yu Xi was also confused by his question.

“Who said I’m in love too early?” He didn’t understand what the train of thought was, how could it be linked to falling in love too early, “I’m not.”

Gu Beilu looked at him and confirmed again: “Really?”

Yu Xi shook his head. He would not lie.

Gu Beilu breathed a sigh of relief.

Yu Xi asked again: “Derek, are you going to fall in love early?”

“How is that possible?” Gu Beilu raised his hand and rubbed Yu Xi’s hair a few times. “Our main task now is to study, get into high school, and then get into college.”

Yu Xi thought it made sense, and the chick pecked at the rice and nodded.

“We will be together in high school, college, and even after graduation.” Gu Beilu said, “If you want to swim, I will build you a large natural swimming pool at home, open-air, using seawater. If you want to eat cake, we will hire a senior pastry chef to make a different cake every day. In short, you can do whatever you want.”

His description was very contagious. Although Yu Xi felt it was a bit strange, he couldn’t say what was wrong.

When Gu Beilu told his parents that he and Yu Xi would live together forever, his parents laughed and said that it was just the words of a child.

It was at that time that Yu Xi learned the phrase “childish words are without restraint”. However, now that they are in junior high school, they no longer have a holiday on Children’s Day. Can they still say “childish words are without restraint”? He tilted his head and thought.

A rain brought down the hot temperature and there was a little coolness in the air.

Inside the house, the movie had already ended, and the three people didn’t even realize that it had rained heavily just now.

Yang Hui then realized that there was no one sitting on the sofa behind him: “Where are they?”

Su Weifan turned around and looked outside the balcony. He saw two figures standing side by side, one tall and one short, one black and one white. The picture was inexplicably harmonious.

After that summer vacation, Yu Xi always felt that Gu Beilu was a little different, but when he thought about it, they still went to school and went home together, ate and slept together every day. The classmates around them were also used to the fact that they were like conjoined twins except during class time.

In the third year of junior high school, Shen Di had to take the art exam and spent more time in the studio.

One day he returned to the classroom in high spirits, and lay down in front of Yu Xi’s desk, looking as if he was about to tell him something important.

“Yu Xi, I’m going to tell you a secret, but you can’t tell anyone else.”

Yu Xi, who was studying seriously, put down his pen and nodded.

Shen Di whispered in his ear: “I met a girl in the studio, she is very beautiful and talented.”

Yu Xi blinked and waited for the next words: “And then?”

Shen Di: “When I first saw her, I felt that she was my muse and my future girlfriend.”

Yu Xi: “You mean… you want to pursue her?”

Shen Di: “I have caught up with her.”

Yu Xi widened his eyes: “Did you catch up?”

Shen Di lowered his voice, which was unusual for him: “Shh! You are the first one to know this, you have to keep it a secret!”

The next day, Shen Di asked Yu Xi to come to the studio and said he wanted to introduce his girlfriend to him.

When Yu Xi arrived outside the studio, Shen Di was washing brushes with a girl with a ponytail.

“Hey, Yu Xi, this way.” Shen Di waved for him to come in.

Yu Xi walked in, and before Shen Di could introduce, the girl had already put down her paintbrush, walked up to him and extended her hand.

“Hello Yu Xi, my name is Lin Yun, and I’m Shen Di’s girlfriend.” The lively and generous girl smiled, revealing two shallow dimples on her face.

“Hello, I’m Yu Xi.” Yu Xi was infected by her warm smile and also grinned sweetly.

Lin Yun asked again: “Why did you come here by yourself? Where is Gu Beilu?”

“Gu Beilu should be taking a programming class. Are you looking for him?” Yu Xi felt a little strange. Shen Di said that he only told him. Could it be that Gu Beilu also knew about it?

Shen Di helplessly explained: “Lin Yun said she is your CP fan.”

Yu Xi: What fan?
