Lin Shen looked at the dark blue double-layered lunch box.

He felt a little awkward and a little guilty.

It seemed that his whole wheat bread and boiled eggs really made Mo Juechen angry.

But he understood this kind of obsession. The more he couldn't get something, the more he wanted it.

In the end, the content was no longer important. Even if it was just a facade, it was good enough!

"Okay." Lin Shen took the lunch box, "I'll bring it tomorrow."

He put the lunch box aside, "Then let's continue … with the questions?"

Mo Juechen didn't say anything.

The two moved to the study of Mo Juechen's apartment and began to interact with each other like they did at noon.

Lin Shen crazily did the questions.

Mo Juechen silently recited his example book.

Occasionally, Lin Shen would look up at him while he was taking a break from doing the questions.

Mo Juechen was still wearing the same formal suit, but he didn't feel uncomfortable.

He supported his chin with one hand and twirled the black pen in his other hand.

But his eyes were focused.

His thick eyelashes would occasionally tremble slightly as he recited the questions.

The light from the ceiling of the study spilled down, just like the sunlight shining through the banyan tree leaves at noon.

It coated Mo Juechen's delicate facial features with a layer of soft light.

This kind of time was so quiet that it even made people feel beautiful.

Lin Shen looked away.

He stared at the competition simulation questions in front of him, but his thoughts were a little far away.

This kind of time also appeared in his memory.

When was it?

Lin Shen imitated Mo Juechen and supported his chin with one hand.

When he had just entered junior high school.

At that time, his father had completely taken over the Lin Group and was getting busier and busier.

His mother had to accompany him to all kinds of banquets, socialize, and contribute her strength to the development of the Lin Group.

His genius brother was working hard to enter the research institute and learn from the top experts in the industry.

They were very, very busy. It wasn't easy for them to find some free time, but they also spent it with Lin Shen's little sister who was still in elementary school.

Lin Shen, who was not yet 14 years old, was in his rebellious phase.

But he was like an invisible person at home.

He didn't see his parents for half a month, and even if he did see them, the conversation was limited to "Do you have enough money to spend?", "Learn more from your brother", "If you want to buy school supplies and materials, you can decide for yourself" …

Until his little sister's birthday that year.

Lin Shen's parents.

Even his brother, who was so busy that he could only sleep for four hours a day, took the time to go home.

The whole family took a day off and brought Lin Shen's little sister to the famous theme park in the city to celebrate her birthday.

The only one he didn't bring was Lin Shen.

When he returned home from school, he found out about it from the housekeeper.

Lin Shen exploded!

He was so angry that he threw down his chopsticks and ran to the villa district where his house was.

She didn't bring her phone, wallet, or even her school bag.

She just sat there in the flower bed.

He hugged his knees with his hands and stared at the sky with his eyes wide open.

There were many stars in the sky, and they were very bright.

Although they seemed to be very close.

But that time, Lin Shen knew clearly for the first time.

The distance between the stars was like the distance between people.

Perhaps it seemed to be very close, but in fact, it was extremely far away.

It was so far away that he felt the bone-chilling cold on such an early autumn night.

The 14-year-old Lin Shen sat alone in the flowerbed, staring blankly into space.

Time ticked by.

Eight o 'clock, nine o' clock, ten o 'clock …

Until eleven o 'clock at night.

Although his position was a little far away, he could still see his family's villa.

Lin Shen just looked like that. The lights in the villa finally came on.

His parents, brother, and sister should be back.

Then, after a while, the lights went off again.

None of them noticed that there was a 14-year-old son. He wasn't at home.

As the lights went off again.

Lin Shen's heart sank bit by bit.

He stopped looking at the starry sky, but leaned over and hugged his knees tightly.

The coolness of the night finally brushed against his slightly cold skin and slowly penetrated into his bones and blood.

His heart also seemed to sink into the vast and boundless sea, leaving not even a ripple.

Until a pair of black leather shoes suddenly appeared in his line of sight.

The owner of the pair of leather shoes walked to Lin Shen's side unhurriedly.

Then, he stopped.

A pair of warm and slender hands gently pressed on Lin Shen's head.

"Xiao Shen?" The neighbor's warm voice sounded above his head. "Why are you here alone?"

Lin Shen looked up a little sluggishly and saw Yan Shuo in a formal suit, white shirt, and even a bow tie standing in front of him.

Yan Shuo was six years older than him, almost the same age as his brother.

The young man in his early twenties had a tall and slender figure.

Handsome eyebrows and eyes.

And he was willing to give Lin Shen a clean and bright smile.

"What's wrong?" Yan Shuo didn't ask a word, but just touched his hair again. "There's no one at home, so you can't go home?

Or … "

The smile in his eyes deepened, and he said jokingly, "You made a mistake and don't dare to go home?"

"I …" Lin Shen stammered, unable to say a complete sentence.

He had stayed outside for so long, and he gradually began to regret it in his heart.

Lin Shen even began to find excuses for his parents.

Maybe they also wanted to take him there.

But it just so happened that today was the first monthly exam for the second year of middle school.

So they didn't want to delay his exam, so they didn't take him there.

It was normal that they didn't see him when they came back.

They must have thought that he was asleep.

"Hmm?" Yan Shuo still looked at him with a smile. "Did you really make a mistake?"

His smiling eyes widened a little in surprise.

The smile in his eyes was even more obvious. "Brother Yan Shuo, I'm a little surprised. Xiao Shen, who has always been the most obedient and sensible, actually makes mistakes?"

Yan Shuo's hand fell on the top of Lin Shen's head again.

He rubbed it hard and suddenly smiled. "That's good!"

"Hmm?" Lin Shen was even more puzzled.

He didn't actually make a mistake.

But why did Yan Shuo say that it was good?

"Because Xiao Shen is usually too obedient."

Yan Shuo looked at him with a smile. "He makes mistakes, rebels, cries wantonly, and sweats hard in his youth. That's the real, complete youth."

He explained with a smile.

Lin Shen's throat was suddenly blocked.

He looked up and stared at Yan Shuo in a daze.

The young man was much taller than him. Lin Shen was only 14 years old. Even if he stood up, he could barely reach Yan Shuo's shoulders.

He stood against the light under the street lamp. The light elongated his shadow and projected it on Lin Shen's body.

It looked as if he was protecting him.

"But if you make a mistake again, don't secretly stay here.

If you make a mistake again and don't dare to go home, you can come to my house at any time, "Yan Shuo said and smiled at Lin Shen.

He leaned over and rubbed Lin Shen's hair again.

Then he naturally reached out to him.

Before Lin Shen could react, the warm big hand had already taken his hand.

Yan Shuo led him and walked side by side with him to his house. "Brother Yan Shuo's house is Xiao Shen's safe haven at any time!"

Yan Shuo's words were not said casually.

From that day on, Lin Shen especially liked to go to his house.

In the past, he would only occasionally go to play with this brother next door who treated him equally.

Later, he would often linger at his house.

Yan Shuo was in college and did not go home every day.

But as long as he was home, Lin Shen would completely stay at his house.

He would do his homework at Yan Shuo's house and review his lessons there.

During the weekends and holidays, the two of them often stayed in Yan Shuo's study to study together.

Sometimes, when Yan Shuo was in the mood, he would personally cook a few home-cooked dishes.

His cooking skills were mediocre.

But Lin Shen still felt that his cooking was far more delicious than the dishes cooked by the best star-rated chef he had ever tasted.

It was not until Yan Shuo went abroad to continue his studies that they got along less and less with each other.

Later, Lin Shen also entered college and made new friends.

He was no longer the little boy who would run out of the house in a fit of pique at night and quietly sit in the flower bed while hugging himself.

He began to calm down and become calm.

But on the night when he was 14 years old, the pair of warm hands that belonged to the young man who held him.

The warmth of Yan Shuo's body passed through Lin Shen's palms little by little.

Then, the warmth traveled down his arm and slowly warmed his whole body.

Including his heart.

The young man's tall figure in a formal suit stood tall in the dark night.

It also became the most beautiful and warm memory in Lin Shen's memory.

Later, he found out that Yan Shuo was actually attending his grandfather's birthday party that day, so he wore a formal suit.

But after that, Lin Shen did find that he was more attracted to mature and gentlemanly men.

Especially when they were dressed in formal attire.

It was as if …

As Lin Shen thought of this, he couldn't help but look up at Mo Juechen.

He never thought that Mo Juechen, this domineering, mysterious and chuunibyou school hunk, would evoke this memory.

Could the other party be considered to have hit the jackpot by accident?!

Although it was impossible for Mo Juechen to have the demeanor of a British gentleman.

But he had a good face and a good figure.

He looked quite good in formal wear.

Of course, that was if he didn't speak.

"What's wrong?"

Probably because Lin Shen's gaze was too focused and burning, Mo Juechen didn't even raise his head and said, "You pretended to be reserved when I told you to, and now you're secretly looking at me?"

After he finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Lin Shen.

Shen Zhan's eyes were full of pride.

Mo Juechen raised his eyebrows and opened his arms generously, exposing himself completely in front of Lin Shen. "Do you need me to stand up and let you have a better look?"

It was indeed an illusion!

Lin Shen lowered his head angrily.

He knew it. How could Mo Juechen have anything in common with the gentle and gentlemanly brother next door?!

The reason why he thought of Yan Shuo was probably because he missed him too much!

An illusion!

Everything was an illusion!

"Memorize your question bank!" Lin Shen's voice became cold. "I have to check it tomorrow."

Mo Juechen seemed to chuckle.

He didn't expose Lin Shen and just looked at him meaningfully.

There was only one table in the study.

Mo Juechen was originally sitting behind the table, while Lin Shen was sitting on the sofa in the study doing questions.

He suddenly felt a weight beside him.

When he turned around, he saw Mo Juecheng sitting beside him with his example book in his hand.

"So that you can't concentrate when you're always secretly looking at me." Mo Juechen said, "You don't have to thank me!

Do your questions properly! "

Lin Shen was speechless.

Why did he feel like he was being lectured by the school hunk again?

The next morning, Lin Shen arrived at school rather early.

At least two-thirds of the students in Year Three Class F were not there.

Mo Juechen was already sitting in the classroom and had already started memorizing questions.

Looking at the school hunk who suddenly seemed to be obsessed with his studies, the students in Class F didn't dare to go out to play.

They all sat in their seats with a book in front of them.

Anyway, it just looked like he was studying.

Lin Shen walked to his seat and took out the lunch box from Mo Juechen's house yesterday.

He placed it on Mo Juechen's desk. "Here."

He said, "Here you go."

Mo Juechen looked up at Lin Shen.

He didn't speak immediately.

Lin Shen had completed his task and was about to sit down.

He saw Tao Ran and Xu Chen, followed by Su Tiantian, walk in from the back door of the classroom.

Only then did Mo Juecheng slowly drag the lunch box over.

He seemed to casually glance at Tao Ran and the others before he spoke.

He acted as if he really didn't know what was in the lunch box and asked indifferently, "What is this?"

Lin Shen was speechless.

Mo Juechen raised his eyebrows and revealed a devilish smile.

He picked up the lunch box and spoke again, "You made this for me personally?"

His voice wasn't too loud, but it was just enough for the whole class to hear clearly, "Forget it, since you're working so hard, I'll reluctantly accept it!"

Lin Shen was speechless.

Haha!

As long as you're happy!
