After a while, there was a knock on Liang Ruizhe’s door. Liang Ruizhe put down the dishes he was washing and went to open the door.

　　The door opened, and a handsome young man was standing at the door. He looked young and still had a bit of immaturity. The coldness between his eyebrows made him look a little distant. He was wearing a clean shirt and trousers, with a backpack on his shoulders. No matter how you looked at him, he still looked like a student.

　　”Hello, I’m here to pick up Zhang Yang.”

　　Zhang Yang’s drunken madness started after Xu Jiangchen took him out of Liang Ruizhe’s house.

　　Xu Jiangchen took a taxi. On the way, Zhang Yang found that it was Xu Jiangchen. He clung to Xu Jiangchen like a monkey, holding his waist tightly with both hands. “Xu, Xu Jiangchen! I didn’t call you, why did you come to pick me up! Do you like me?”

　　Xu Jiang remained silent and let him go crazy.

　　”Admit it, man! You just…just like me!”

　　”No.” Xu Jiangchen said expressionlessly.

　　Zhang Yang’s cheeks were flushed by alcohol, and he stared at Xu Jiangchen with drunken eyes. Hearing Xu Jiangchen’s ruthless words, he suddenly felt aggrieved and cried with a pursed mouth, “I, I have been chasing you for so long, I have never chased someone for so long! Can’t you…just like me for a while!”

　　”You have no conscience, you are heartless, you, you bastard… Are you fucking cultivating the ruthless way?” Zhang Yang’s words became more and more outrageous in the end.

　　Xu Jiangchen: “……”

　　The driver in front was amused by Zhang Yang’s nonsense and thought the couple was joking. He couldn’t help but teased, “Hahaha, your boyfriend is really interesting.”

　　Zhang Yang climbed onto Xu Jiangchen’s neck, and his even breathing with a scent of alcohol could be heard in his ears. Xu Jiangchen glanced at Zhang Yang’s flushed cheeks and said “hmm” neither lightly nor heavily.

　　The taxi drove to the neighborhood where Xu Jiangchen lived. Xu Jiangchen paid the fare and helped the drunk Zhang Yang out of the car.

　　Zhang Yang hung his head, and was almost being carried in Xu Jiangchen’s arms and dragged away.

　　When he reached the stairs, the voice-controlled lights came on, illuminating the dim and narrow corridor.

　　There was no light here originally. After Zhang Yang came, Xu Jiangchen bought a light bulb and installed it himself.

　　After returning home, Xu Jiangchen turned on the lights. There were still enough things in the house for two people. After Zhang Yang’s leg healed, he still stayed in his house for various reasons. Xu Jiangchen didn’t chase him away on purpose, but he didn’t ask him to stay either. Zhang Yang didn’t care about that. Occasionally, he was too shy and felt embarrassed to eat and drink for free, so he took the initiative to buy a lot of vegetables and filled his refrigerator.

　　Later, he felt really embarrassed so he went home to stay for a few days, and then came to his house to stay for ten days or half a month.

　　So Xu Jiangchen kept his things.

　　He helped the drunk Zhang Yang into the room, put him on the bed, took off his shoes, and then took off his coat.

　　Unexpectedly, just as he unbuttoned a few buttons, Zhang Yang suddenly opened his eyes, grabbed Xu Jiangchen’s wrist, and looked at him solemnly.

　　He was obviously very drunk just now, but now his eyes are clear and bright, and people who don’t know him would think he is not drunk.

　　Xu Jiangchen was confused by his gaze. Just when he thought Zhang Yang was pretending, Zhang Yang grabbed his arm and pulled him onto the bed.

　　Xu Jiangchen was caught off guard and was pulled by him. He was afraid of crushing Zhang Yang, so he supported himself with his hands on both sides of him.

　　Zhang Yang lay under him, hugged his neck tightly, and smiled with crooked eyes, “Why are you taking off my clothes? Do you want to have sex with me…hehehe.”

　　Well, still talking nonsense, no pretending, still drunk.

　　Xu Jiangchen wanted to get up, but Zhang Yang wouldn’t let him, and even clamped his legs tightly around his waist, “No, don’t go, don’t be embarrassed.” Then he turned over, and the two switched positions, with Zhang Yang sitting astride Xu Jiangchen’s waist.

　　”Zhang Yang, go down.” Xu Jiang’s face was gloomy.

　　The corners of Zhang Yang’s eyes were flushed, and the clarity in his eyes disappeared again, leaving a dazed look. The shirt that Xu Jiangchen had just unbuttoned was hanging loosely on his body, revealing the snow-white skin on one shoulder and collarbone.

　　He put his hand into Xu Jiangchen’s clothes, felt his strong abdominal muscles, and couldn’t help but smack his lips in admiration, “You have a really, really good figure.”

　　Zhang Yang’s hands kept stroking his abdominal muscles, and then moved all the way down, untying Xu Jiangchen’s belt, and even patted his butt, pinching it hard twice, and chuckled, “Xu, Xu Jiangchen, your butt is so perky…” It must be very good to fuck.

　　Zhang Yang said the second half of the sentence in his heart.

　　Xu Jiangchen’s eyes darkened and he warned again, “Zhang Yang, get down!”

　　Zhang Yang turned a blind eye and stared at Xu Jiangchen’s beautiful lips with his misty eyes.

　　It’s red, like a strawberry.

　　I really want to take a bite.

　　Zhang Yang thought so and did so. When Xu Jiangchen reacted, he felt a soft touch on his lips. He stood there with his eyes wide open, and Zhang Yang’s enlarged face was right in front of him.

　　”Why is there no…strawberry flavor…” Zhang Yang muttered dissatisfiedly, sticking out his tongue to lick the gap between Xu Jiangchen’s lips, and his alcohol-smelling breath sprayed into his nostrils.

　　Xu Jiangchen finally came back to his senses, and a ripple appeared in his eyes, which were as calm as a deep pool. He threw Zhang Yang off his body and walked out of the room in a panic.

　　The door of the room was slammed shut. Xu Jiangchen leaned against the door with his breathing disordered. There seemed to be a lingering touch of Zhang Yang’s alcohol on his lips. He felt that he was drunk too. Zhang Yang’s face and that kiss kept appearing in his mind.

　　He gritted his teeth and cursed, “Fuck.”

　　……

　　The sky was bright and Zhang Yang, who had slept until noon, finally woke up. His brain seemed to be splitting apart after the hangover. He sat up and pinched his eyebrows.

　　Then he paused, and some strange memories suddenly came to his mind.

　　Last night, last night…

　　He pressed Xu Jiangchen on the bed, touched his breasts, his abdominal muscles, and his buttocks… and then…

　　Zhang Yang couldn’t help but curse when he remembered something, “Fuck!”

　　He quickly ran out to look for Xu Jiangchen.

　　Xu Jiangchen has no classes today and is reading in the living room.

　　Zhang Yang was panting. Xu Jiangchen turned around and looked at him. Zhang Yang calmed down and said, “Yesterday, last night, we…”

　　Xu Jiangchen’s face remained expressionless. “What do you mean we?”

　　”Hey? Didn’t I do that to you yesterday? I, I was drunk. I didn’t mean it. Don’t take it to heart. No, no, I didn’t mean that. I meant that I will be responsible for you.”

　　Zhang Yang wanted to bite off his tongue. What nonsense was he talking about?

　　He only remembered the first half of the memory. He did a lot of bad things when he was riding on Xu Jiangchen in the beginning. He didn’t know whether he did anything to Xu Jiangchen in the end. But he knew himself and it was impossible for him to not eat the meat right in front of him.

　　Xu Jiangchen glanced at him, then calmly withdrew his gaze, “You were just pestering me and going crazy because of drunkenness.”

　　”Ah?? Just drunk and mad? I…I didn’t do anything to you afterwards?”

　　Xu Jiangchen looked at Zhang Yang with a look that asked, “What can you do to me?” He didn’t answer him and continued to read with his head down.

　　Zhang Yang fell into self-doubt. He actually didn’t get to eat Xu Jiangchen? ? He didn’t get to eat him? ?

　　He shed tears in his heart, scolding himself for being so useless. Such a good opportunity might never come again in the future. A great regret filled Zhang Yang’s heart.

　　In the next few days, perhaps because he felt too embarrassed and didn’t know how to face Xu Jiangchen, Zhang Yang went home. Xu Jiangchen thought he would come again in two days, but he didn’t show up for a week, which was unusual.

　　He didn’t care much at first, but as time went on, the cup that Zhang Yang placed in his house was covered with dust, and the person never appeared in front of him again.

　　Xu Jiangchen sent a message to Zhang Yang, asking him if he still wanted the things, but Zhang Yang did not reply.

　　He lowered his eyes to glance at the unanswered chat interface, then turned off the screen of his phone and silently packed up all of Zhang Yang’s things, including the watch on his wrist that Zhang Yang forced him to wear.

　　………

　　The end of midsummer has brought a comfortable chill. I have been staying at home for a long time and haven’t taken Shen Yu out for a walk for a while.

　　So on a sunny day, Liang Ruizhe took Shen Yu and Shiba Inu to a nearby park for a walk.

　　Shen Yu was running and playing happily on the grass with the Shiba Inu. Liang Ruizhe was watching from afar with a smile on his face.

　　Days like this are so beautiful, everything is gentle and peaceful, time flows slowly, and the person you love most is by your side.

　　Gu Yingyi kept his promise. In the past year or so, he never appeared in front of Shen Yu and no longer arranged for anyone to monitor them.

　　Liang Ruizhe didn’t believe that Gu Yingyi could really let go of Shen Yu, but he believed that he could restrain himself for Shen Yu.

　　It would be great if time could stay at this moment forever, but unfortunately there is no such thing as “if” in this world.

　　Shen Yu’s life was starting over, but his life was counting down.

　　Liang Ruizhe no longer felt sorry for himself. He was already very satisfied with the time he had spent with Shen Yu. He just couldn’t let Shen Yu go.

　　Shen Yu and Shiba Inu were playing frisbee on the grass while Liang Ruizhe was sitting under the shade of a tree watching.

　　He felt a little tired, exhausted from regular chemotherapy, medication, and the torture of illness on his body.

　　Chemotherapy only prolonged his time. Liang Ruizhe was already showing signs of hair loss. He leaned against a tree, his eyelids pressing down on him as if they were as heavy as a thousand pounds. He closed his eyes slightly, feeling a little sleepy.

　　After playing for a while, Shen Yu ran over with sweat all over his forehead. He picked up the kettle and drank it up. Then he poured a little more water into his palm and gave it to the Shiba Inu to drink.

　　They drank water and ran to the grass to play. Liang Ruizhe fell asleep leaning against a tree without realizing it. When he woke up from his endless dream, it was already getting dark.

　　It was two o’clock in the afternoon when they arrived. Liang Ruizhe looked at his mobile phone and it was already five o’clock.

　　He didn’t even know when he fell asleep and slept for such a long time.

　　He looked in the direction where Shen Yu and Shiba Inu were playing not far away, and his breathing stopped the next second.

　　Shen Yu is missing.

　　He stood up from the ground and looked for Shen Yu anxiously, “Xiao Yu!”

　　No one answered, but the Shiba Inu was called out.

　　The Shiba Inu jumped out from the bushes, whining and calling anxiously. Liang Ruizhe noticed that the Shiba Inu’s hind legs were a little lame, as if it had been hit by something.
