In just a few minutes, the rain became heavy and violent, as if thousands of troops were galloping through the clouds and pouring down.

The heavy rain hit the roof of the pavilion and the leaves, and everything in the mountains was trembling in the sound of the rain.

Including Yu Xi’s heart.

Only Gu Beilu’s voice was unusually firm.

“Don’t rush to respond to me, Xixi.” He squeezed his slightly cold hands, “You can take as much time as you need. Nothing will change before then.”

Gu Beilu originally didn’t want Yu Xi to know his thoughts so soon, but he didn’t want Yu Xi to have any doubts.

He gave a clear answer so that the person he loved would not make random guesses.

Yu Xi’s hands were quickly warmed up.

He felt that Gu Beilu’s body temperature was so high that it could melt him.

“Derek, I will also be admitted to University A.” Go with you.

As soon as he finished speaking, he was pulled into a familiar embrace by strong hands.

He could hear the violent heartbeat when he pressed his hand against the strong chest. He never knew that Gu Beilu would have such great emotional ups and downs under his icy face.

The mountains in the distance were looming in the rain, and the air was filled with a fresh scent mixed with soil and fallen leaves.

The world after the rain remains the same, but it seems to have been washed again, the air is fresher, and everything seems extremely vivid.

*

After that day, they tacitly agreed not to mention the matter again.

Yu Xi devoted himself fully to studying academic subjects and preparing for the sports specialty examination.

In addition to tutoring him, Gu Beilu started working on a new app in his spare time.

In the second year of high school, Yu Xi began to conduct intensive physical training. Although the test was for swimming, other physical tests were also included in the assessment, so Yu Xi needed to train.

Professional training is not light in intensity, and it is inevitable to bump into things. For a long time, Yu Xi always left class with injuries, and Gu Beilu applied plasters to him in the living room every night, feeling terribly distressed.

“How long will you have to practice?” There was a hint of self-blame in his dull voice. If he had known that he would get injured, he would have opposed Yu Xi taking the physical education exam.

Even if Yu Xi took the college entrance examination normally, he would find a way to get him in.

Yu Xi leaned on the sofa and drank milk, as if he didn’t care about the injury at all.

“It’s only a few months away. After I finish the exams, I can focus on preparing for the academic subjects.” He was not 100% confident about the academic subjects exams, so he could only work hard to get a higher ranking in swimming.

After drinking the milk, he yawned and was about to stand up, but Gu Beilu pressed his shoulders and made him sit back on the sofa.

The empty cup in my hand was taken away and replaced with a cup of warm water.

Gu Beilu put a few pills into his hand.

“What is this?” Yu Xi looked at him in confusion.

“Vitamins, nutritional supplements.” Gu Beilu supervised and would not feel at ease until he saw Yu Xi take the supplements with his own eyes.

During this period, Yu Xi was not only forced to drink a lot of tonic soup, but also a variety of oral liquids and small pills. He could accept soup, but he didn’t like taking medicine.

“I’m sleepy and don’t want to eat…” He looked at Gu Beilu eagerly, waiting for Gu Beilu to soften his heart.

But Gu Beilu looked at the soft person, and his heart was filled with fire.

He was afraid that he would not let go even if he turned soft like a marshmallow. He had seen how much Yu Xi’s body had consumed in the past few months, and he had asked the nutritionist to prepare meals for Yu Xi, so he had to eat them.

Before Yu Xi could continue to act coquettishly, he picked him up and sat him on his lap.

“Want me to feed you?” He pried open Yu Xi’s fingers, exposing several pills to the air.

Ever since they expressed their feelings in the pavilion on the top of the mountain, the two of them didn’t deliberately keep their distance, nor did they feel awkward, but compared to before, there was a little more of a distance between them.

They may not feel it at normal times, but at certain moments it will sound the alarm, reminding them that their tense nerves have reached a critical point.

For example, now, Yu Xi was clearly feeling sleepy, but he was still trying to avoid the pill. After struggling for a few times, he felt something was wrong.

He almost forgot that Gu Beilu was becoming more and more unyielding.

“Cough——” Gu Beilu coughed in a dry voice, and Yu Xi’s cheeks instantly became hot. he was so scared that he stuffed all the pills into his mouth.

Gu Beilu quickly reminded him: “Slow down, don’t choke.”

Yu Xi raised his head and took a big sip of warm water, swallowed the pill as quickly as possible, and then immediately stood up from Gu Beilu.

“I’m going to bed first.” After saying that, he turned and went upstairs, not daring to look at Beilu any more.

In just a dozen seconds, he completed the action in one go. He had never been so proactive in taking medicine in his life.

Gu Beilu sat on the sofa and watched the little white rabbit run away in panic, and laughed.

In the bedroom, Yu Xi lay on his bed, pulled the quilt over his head, and tried to fall asleep but failed.

That move just now drove away his sleepiness.

Just as the heat on his face subsided a little, the phone beside the bed began to vibrate. Yu Xi turned sideways to see that it was a video call from Gu Beilu.

He glanced towards the door and felt very strange. The person was in his living room, so why was he making a video call?

Just as he was hesitating, the video was disconnected and Gu Beilu’s message came in.

【I’m home, take the video】

The video came in for the second time, and Yu Xi lay down and pressed the accept button.

After the call was connected, Gu Beilu was indeed already at Gu’s house on the screen.

Yu Xi lay down and took a photo of him, eyes wide open: “You walk so fast?”

Gu Beilu held the camera in front of him and said as he went upstairs, “What? Or should I go back?”

“No, why are you running around?” Of course he knew why Gu Beilu went back. And now he also understood why Gu Beilu often hid in his room during his first year of high school, using the excuse of writing papers.

He scratched his eyebrows, and Gu Beilu could see that he didn’t want to sleep.

“I won’t go over today. Turn on the sleep aromatherapy. I just changed the essential oils this morning.”

Yu Xi said “oh”, got up from the bed and turned on the aromatherapy lamp.

The soft scent of lavender soon filled the entire bedroom, and he returned to the bed, hugged the pillow, and half of his face was hidden in the quilt.

Gu Beilu also lay down and turned off the main light in the room, leaving only a small night light on the bedside.

Under the dim light, the picture seemed a little dim, and the irritability between his eyebrows was concealed a lot.

The two of them stared at the screen in silence for a long while.

Yu Xi found it very interesting and stared at the screen. He had never looked at Gu Beilu like this before.

Although Gu Beilu’s angular face was right in front of him, Yu Xi felt a little unscrupulous because of the phone, and even forgot how he was scared and ran into the room in the living room just now.

He suddenly became playful and asked with a smile, “Derek, have you changed into your pajamas?”

Gu Beilu paused: “Pyjamas?”

Yu Xi said, “Did you lie down without changing into pajamas?”

Gu Beilu stared at him intently and asked in a deep voice, “Why are you asking this?”

Yu Xi became more and more bold: “I didn’t even see you change into pajamas, and you lay down. You don’t have mysophobia now, do you?”

Gu Beilu was silent.

If the light wasn’t insufficient, Yu Xi would be able to see the growing emotion in his eyes.

“You really didn’t change into your pajamas?” Yu Xi continued to laugh.

“I’m not wearing pajamas.” Gu Beilu said, “I sleep naked, do you want to see?”

Yu Xi froze and suddenly dared not laugh anymore.

After a while, he stammered, “Why do you sleep naked? You obviously… don’t have this habit.”

“You don’t believe it?”

Gu Beilu’s camera shook, and Yu Xi quickly closed his eyes: “I believe it!”

A mischievous laugh came from the phone, followed by a voice saying, “Go to bed quickly. I’ll be there at six tomorrow.”

Yu Xi nodded, closed his eyes and hung up the video.

After calming down in bed for a while, he finally realized why he didn’t dare to watch it? It’s not like he had never seen it before.
