Lin Shen's mind went blank.

His eyes widened as he looked at Mo Juechen, who was right in front of him.

Mo Juechen's eyelashes were long and thick. Lin Shen could almost count the number of eyelashes that were as thick as butterfly wings.

Mo Juechen's eyes were bright and he could see his own reflection in his amber eyes.

Mo Juechen could only see the top half of his nose.

Then his thin lips …

Mo Juechen's thin lips were gently pressed against the corner of his own lips!

Together with Mo Juechen's breath, it invaded Lin Shen's breath.

Even his breath was filled with Mo Juechen's scent.

Mo Juechen leaned against the kitchen counter with his left hand in his pocket and his right hand on the back of Lin Shen's neck.

He was slightly taller than Lin Shen, so when he leaned over to kiss him, he leaned forward slightly.

His posture couldn't be more dashing.

But no matter how elegant his posture was, it could not hide the fact that they were …

Ahhhhh!!!

Lin Shen's eyes widened.

They were … kissing?!

He reached out and pushed Mo Juechen's chest.

Mo Juechen seemed to be caught off guard and took a big step back.

Lin Shen lowered his head and then raised it again.

He looked at Mo Juechen blankly.

"You …" He blinked his eyes. His throat was dry and hoarse as if it had been rubbed by sandpaper.

"We … we …" Lin Shen muttered.

The kitchen was still filled with the sweet caramel smell of cookies.

It was overwhelming.

Lin Shen, on the other hand, felt that his breath was still filled with the refreshing scent of Mo Jue City.

"We …" He raised his hand and touched the corner of his lips.

"Idiot!"

Mo Juechen's face was also slightly red.

But he calmed down quickly and narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at Lin Shen from the corner of his eyes.

"Don't you know how to kiss?" he said righteously.

"No, I don't." Lin Shen, who was completely in a daze, answered honestly.

Whether it was in the real world or in the book.

He had never kissed before.

Moreover, he had spent the last twenty years of his life learning, learning, learning.

Other than studying, there was almost nothing else in her eyes.

He didn't even watch much TV or animation.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have had such an absurd dream after reading her sister's Mary Sue novel.

The corners of Mo Juechen's lips curled up.

However, he quickly put on a cold face and looked at Lin Shen with disdain. "When kissing, you have to close your eyes."

He slowly exhaled and took a step closer to Lin Shen.

While the other party was still in a daze, she reached out and gently stroked Lin Shen's neck.

"Now …" Mo Juechen's eyes became hoarse. "Close your eyes."

He said in a hoarse voice, "Let me teach you …"

He lowered his head as he spoke.

When Lin Shen looked up at him, her soft lips gently brushed against his forehead.

Then, it was the tip of her small, cool nose.

Her soft lips moved down and landed on Lin Shen's lips again.

This was a much gentler and lighter kiss than the one before.

Mo Juechen's breathing invaded Lin Shen's thoughts again.

He stared at Mo Juechen in a daze. In the kitchen, which was filled with the sweet smell of cookies, he didn't know whether to call it romantic or not …

Lin Shen slowly closed his eyes.

Ah ah ah!!!

He had just closed his eyes when he suddenly realized what was going on.

What was there to teach?!

He, he, he …

He and Mo Juechen!

It was fine if it was two boys!

But the other party was Mo Juechen!

The demon iceberg school hunk!

The male lead of the novel, Su Tiantian's official supporting character!

He was also the type of person that he couldn't even be friends with in the past.

What were they doing now?!

Practicing kissing?!

exce ！

Lin Shen suddenly pushed Mo Juechen away.

He reached out and wiped the corner of his lips.

This wasn't right!

But what exactly was wrong? His mind was blank because of the other party, and he couldn't figure it out.

He quickly glanced at Mo Juechen again, then turned and walked quickly out of the kitchen.

"I'm going home first!"

Lin Shen was almost running away!

He rushed downstairs in one breath. Dusk had already set in.

The autumn night wind was already very cold.

The cool autumn wind blew on Lin Shen's face, cooling his hot face a little.

He reached out and wiped his face. As he walked forward, he looked back with lingering fear.

Mo Juechen's neighborhood had already been engulfed by the night.

The other party didn't chase after him.

Lin Shen quickened his pace and walked forward.

He didn't go back to school to ride his bike. After all, Mo Juechen's apartment wasn't far from school.

And his house wasn't far from Singshang College either.

Just like that, Lin Shen walked leisurely in the night.

The night wind blew away the last trace of heat on his face bit by bit.

When he walked into the neighborhood where his villa was located, he finally calmed down completely.

Lin Shen didn't go home immediately. He pulled on the strap of his school bag and sat down on a bench in the neighborhood.

This neighborhood was well landscaped. This was also the reason why his parents chose this place in the first place.

The garden was filled with greenery, and almost every villa was hidden in the shade of a large tree.

Behind every villa, there were many benches placed further away from the driveway.

The benches were relatively quiet. There wouldn't be any cars passing by.

The place that Lin Shen had chosen was a place where very few people passed by.

He sat on the bench in a daze for a long time. He still couldn't fully digest what had just happened.

— — He and Mo Juechen kissed!

— — And it was twice!

Ahhhhh!!!

Lin Shen was going crazy.

He wiped his face forcefully again. Shenshen buried his entire face in his palms.

He and Mo Juechen …

His first kiss! Ahhh!

And it was taken away by Mo Juechen just like that!

Before he could even react to what had happened, the other party had kissed him.

Was Mo Juechen the devil?!

Lin Shen lowered his head even more.

Because of Yan Shuo, he probably realized that he might like boys more.

But that didn't mean that he could be with anyone.

God!

Lin Shen wiped his face forcefully again.

He threw his backpack on the bench and leaned against it dejectedly.

It was rare to see stars in the sky above S City.

The night sky was deep. If one looked at it for a long time, it would suck away one's soul.

Just like Mo Juechen's …

Stop!

Stop!

Why was he thinking about him again?!

Lin Shen hurriedly stopped himself from thinking about Mo Juechen again.

He took a deep breath of the cold night wind and tried to calm himself down.

So how did this happen?

Lin Shen forced himself to recall the whole incident.

He had transmigrated into the Mary Sue novel that his sister was reading. Because of this, he realized that he might have some strange thoughts about the brother next door, Yan Shuo, who had given him all the warm memories of his youth.

Then, he wanted to go back.

Then, in his desperation, he thought that maybe Mo Juechen and Su Tiantian were together. After the novel ended, he could go back.

In order to let the two of them be together, he whimsically suggested tutoring them.

He hoped that he could cultivate two good students with good character and academic performance. This would remove the biggest obstacle for them to be together …

It didn't sound like a problem.

Under his influence, Mo Jue Cheng, the most handsome boy in school, even became a good boy who loved to study.

Lin Shen had been studying with him all this time and witnessed Mo Juechen's tenacity and diligence.

Of course, there was also his intelligence.

After that, their relationship seemed to have improved.

The evil and cold school hunk actually cooked personally. His culinary skills were not bad.

They went to school together, finished school together, and studied together.

They cooked together and worked hard to defeat the elite class students.

They mingled together all the time.

Even during lunch break, they never left each other's side.

Damn!

Lin Shen finally felt that something was wrong.

He had never been in a relationship before. He had never even thought about it.

Otherwise, he would have realized that the way he and Mo Juechen interacted was no different from a campus couple.

No wonder she suddenly kissed him.

Oh no, oh no, oh no!

Lin Shen covered his face with his hands.

They seemed to have gotten too close.

But shouldn't Mo Juechen like Su Tiantian?

Lin Shen didn't understand.

She did say some classic lines of Lei Feiren's chuunibyou to him.

But because of his preconceived notions, he felt that Mo Juechen liked Su Tiantian.

Moreover, she didn't have much experience with boys her age. So, Lin Shen didn't take it to heart.

He thought she was just joking.

He even secretly complained that her chuunibyou was acting up.

So now …

Lin Shen recalled the two kisses in the kitchen. They were both as soft as feathers.

He …

What should he do now?!

"Shenshen?" A gentle male voice suddenly sounded above Lin Shen's head.

These two words were like a curse, stimulating Lin Shen, who was full of worries, to the point that he almost jumped up.

"Uh …" Lin Shen looked up and met Lin Yuan's worried gaze. "Bro, bro …"

He swallowed and tried to stay calm.

"You, why are you here?" He asked again.

Lin Shen looked up at his brother.

Lin Yuan was wearing a black suit.

It was a dark blue shirt, but there was no tie.

He must have just unbuttoned the top three buttons of his shirt, revealing his slender neck and well-defined collarbones.

Lin Shen was busy with the preliminaries of the National Quiz Contest.

He left early and returned late every day.

Lin Yuan was also busy with his own company. Most of the time, he didn't even go home.

He hadn't seen his brother for a few days.

Lin Yuan must have just gotten off work. He still had his usual masculine scent on him.

It was clear and pleasant, like the smell of the forest.

Miraculously, Lin Shen's originally flustered mood slowly calmed down.

"Hahahaha —" Lin Yuan chuckled. "I should be the one asking you."

As he spoke, he sat down beside Lin Shen. "Shenshen, why are you here alone?"

Lin Yuan said as he glanced at the school bag that Lin Shen had thrown on the bench. "Why are you here alone after school?

Why don't you go home? "

As soon as Lin Yuan finished speaking, he remembered.

Today was the end of the last subject of the National Quiz Contest.

His younger brother had made a bet with someone to see who could enter the finals in more subjects.

The loser seemed to have to drop out of school.

He looked at Lin Shen with some worry.

His second brother had been working very hard recently.

He had asked Lin Che several times and knew that Lin Shen had been preparing for the National Quiz Contest at home and in school.

So this was …

Lin Yuan's eyes dimmed.

He reached out and rubbed Lin Shen's hair vigorously.

"What's wrong?" He asked with a smile. "Let me guess … Hmm, did you have a conflict with that Mo Juechen?

So you're hiding here and sulking? "

Lin Yuan asked teasingly.

Lin Shen: "…"

He knew that his brother was joking.

But, did he have to be so sharp, brother?!

He was feeling very guilty right now, okay?!

"Hmm …" Lin Yuan saw that he didn't speak and misunderstood.

He rested his chin on his left hand and smiled at his younger brother. "Actually, Singshang College is very close to home.

There are many famous schools in S City, and there's a very good high school right next to brother's company.

If you study there, I'll have a companion for lunch. I won't have to order an extra dish every time I want to, but I'm worried that it'll go to waste. "

Lin Shen felt a little guilty under Lin Yuan's gentle gaze.

He also understood what the other party meant.

His brother had obviously misunderstood.

He thought that he was sitting here and didn't dare to go home because he lost to Lu Miaomiao in the competition.

To be honest, he was very touched.

Although after coming to this world, his family had always moved him.

But Lin Yuan's words still warmed Lin Shen's heart.

He couldn't imagine what kind of attitude his original family members would have when facing his failure.

His father probably didn't have the time to care whether he participated in the competition or not, and didn't have the energy to care whether he did well in the competition.

His mother … probably didn't even care that he was already in his third year of high school and that there was less than a year left before the college entrance exam.

His genius brother was always busy with his own career.

If he knew that he lost in the competition, he might pat him on the shoulder and tell him in a casual tone, "Hmm, high school mathematics, physics, and chemistry competition?

It was very simple.

But he didn't have to feel too bad about not being able to enter the semi-finals. He just had to try his best.

His little sister was almost spoiled to the heavens. She probably never understood Lin Shen's struggle and hard work.

But Lin Yuan used the most gentle way to tell him.

He didn't mind.

Was it easy to transfer schools?

Lin Shen didn't know.

But his brother didn't care if he failed or if he would transfer schools.

He had already begun to imagine that if his younger brother studied in a school near his company, they could eat lunch together and order an extra dish.

Lin Shen wanted to laugh, but his nose was a little sore.

He knew that Lin Yuan wouldn't lack companions to eat with.

He just wanted to comfort himself.

In a way that would cause the least harm.

But it wasn't!

The reason why he didn't dare to go home was even more terrifying!

It was so terrifying that it could turn the entire family upside down!

The Lin Family, from his parents to his brothers, was full of love and tolerance.

And Lin Yuan sometimes even joked about himself and Mo Juechen.

But Lin Shen believed that if any family in the country knew that their child kissed someone of the same sex.

They would definitely not be able to accept it.

"Competition …" Lin Shen explained, "I actually did quite well."

"Hmm?" Lin Yuan raised his eyebrows.

He stared at Lin Shen for a few seconds, then the corners of his lips curled up into a smile.

It seemed that he had never doubted Lin Shen's words.

It was as if he would always believe whatever his younger brother said unconditionally.

"Then why are you here …" Lin Yuan tilted his head slightly and looked at Lin Shen, puzzled.

Lin Shen's face was a little hot.

He opened his mouth and muttered, "It's, it's nothing.

I just wanted to be alone here for a while. "

"Did your brother disturb you?" Lin Yuan asked considerately.

"No …" Lin Shen whispered.

He deliberately chose a secluded corner because he really wanted to be alone for a while.

But Lin Yuan?

He would never feel that he was disturbed by him.

"Then …" Lin Yuan copied his posture and relaxed himself as he leaned back in the chair. "Do you want to talk to your brother?"

He smiled and tilted his head to look at Lin Shen. "It's something that has troubled you so much."

"I …" Lin Shen opened his mouth.

He found it somewhat difficult to speak.

No matter who he was facing, it was difficult to speak.

Especially Lin Yuan.

"Hmm?" Lin Yuan thought for a moment.

He turned back to look at the sky. "Last week, our company's research and development team failed on a new project."

"Huh?" Lin Shen was astonished.

He looked at Lin Yuan worriedly.

There was a faint trace of tiredness on Lin Yuan's handsome face.

There was also a rare trace of sadness in his warm gaze.

"The team worked hard for a long time. From the design concept, preparation, modeling, and then into the research … It took almost eight months, and then they discovered that they had reached a dead end."

Lin Yuan smiled at him. "Perhaps the direction was wrong from the beginning, or perhaps only one of the details was wrong. But in any case, it failed in the end."

His tone sounded calm. "The path of scientific research is long and difficult. Sometimes, the slightest difference can lead to a great error."

"Mm." Lin Shen nodded.

He was still looking at Lin Yuan worriedly.

Lin Yuan was like his older brother in reality. He was a true genius.

His journey had been smooth, and he had almost never encountered the slightest setback.

He was the kind of person who had the right time, place, and people. He was truly favored by the heavens.

Lin Shen was very self-aware.

He had long known that he was far from being as talented as his older brother.

For a member of the common people like him, who had an ordinary IQ and could only rely on hard work to make up for it.

Failure was really nothing.

He would get used to it after falling a few more times.

But he had seen his genius older brother fail two or three times.

Every time, it would make the other party anxious and irritable, almost crazy.

In Lin Shen's eyes, those failures weren't even failures.

It was just that they weren't perfect!

At this moment, he looked at Lin Yuan.

Eight months of hard work had gone down the drain just like that. His brother, who was also a genius, seemed to be able to remain calm.

But could he really bear it?

"Uh …" Lin Shen wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know how to comfort him.

"Actually, it doesn't matter." He thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's just a small problem that can be solved soon."

Lin Yuan didn't say anything. His eyes, which were as deep as the sea, stared at Lin Shen.

Lin Shen was a little nervous.

He looked at Lin Yuan, carefully reached out his hand, and gently patted the other party's shoulder.

"Good luck."

"Pfft …" Lin Yuan suddenly laughed out loud. "Hahahahaha …"

He seemed to be really amused.

Lin Yuan relaxed and leaned back in his chair, laughing unscrupulously for a while.

"Shenshen."

When he was done laughing, he maintained his posture of leaning back in his chair and tilted his head to look at Lin Shen. "Why are you so cute?"

Lin Yuan said and laughed softly, "Even if brother really had any worries and unhappiness, they are completely cured now!"

As he said that, he reached out his hand and rubbed Lin Shen's hair again. "What should I do?

I originally wanted to comfort my brother who seemed to have something on his mind, but in the end, I became the one being comforted? "

"Shenshen, brother isn't afraid of failure."

Lin Yuan laughed for a while, then continued, "Today, the people in the team are a little dejected, so I gave them a week off.

I let them watch movies, listen to concerts, and even go out for a walk.

The company will pay for them. "

He looked into the distance. "What's so scary about failure?

Like you said, maybe it's just a small problem. It'll be fine as long as it's solved.

Even if the direction was wrong from the beginning, it's only been eight months. Brother can still afford to lose.

Mm … "

He suddenly sighed. "If it really doesn't work, even if the business fails and goes bankrupt, you can still go home and inherit the family business.

Don't you think so? "

Lin Shen couldn't help but laugh.

He nodded vigorously under Lin Yuan's smiling gaze.

"Okay." Lin Yuan smiled and said, "It's your turn now."

"My turn?" Lin Shen didn't understand.

"Brother talked about his embarrassing failure. Shouldn't Shenshen also talk about it?" Lin Yuan winked at him. "That's a fair exchange of secrets."

Lin Shen: "…"

He couldn't help but laugh again.

Under the night sky, in the quiet neighborhood garden, only he and Lin Yuan sat side by side.

Lin Shen somewhat inappropriately remembered the night he ran away from home in a fit of pique.

He also found his gentle next-door brother in the neighborhood garden.

Yan Shuo didn't want to exchange embarrassing secrets with him like Lin Yuan did.

But he told him that he was too obedient!

He finally learned how to run away from home. How nice!

Lin Shen blinked.

"Actually, it's nothing …" He said, "Brother, you know him too. Mo Juechen …"

"I might have misunderstood a little."

Lin Shen continued, "I think we're friends, but he doesn't seem to think the same as me."

"Hmm?" Lin Yuan didn't rush him. Instead, he looked at him patiently with a smile.

He even put his arm on the back of the bench and looked at Lin Shen from the side.

He looked like a good older brother who was all ears.

He wore a suit and shirt. During the day, he was a serious and powerful tech upstart.

Under the moonlight, in front of his younger brother, he was just the most gentle and tolerant older brother.

"I …" Lin Shen swallowed and worriedly organized his words.

After a long time, he didn't know what to say.

Mo Juechen kissed him, twice!

Lin Yuan would immediately turn hostile, right?!

"So Mo Juechen confessed to you?" After waiting for a long time, Lin Shen didn't say anything else.

Lin Yuan suddenly chuckled and took the initiative to ask.

Lin Shen: "!!!"

At the same time, Tao Ran, who had just finished working out, received a call from Mo Juechen.

"Boss."

He put the phone between his ear and shoulder and walked towards his bedroom while wiping his sweat. "I just finished working out. I didn't hear the first call. What's up?"

"Oh." Mo Juechen said faintly, "I asked Xu Chen out."

"Hmm?" Tao Ran was a little confused.

"The room is also booked." Mo Juechen continued, "It's at the usual place. You can come out now."

"Hmm?" Tao Ran looked at the time. "But it's already nine o 'clock.

Boss, did something happen? "

"Nothing."

Mo Juechen's tone was calm. It was the same as when he was memorizing the examples. It was calm and even a little cold. "I just suddenly wanted to play truth or dare."

He said to Tao Ran, "Hurry up and come out. I'm almost there."

Tao Ran: "Truth or dare?!"

Tao Ran: "F * ck!"

He thought for a while and asked in a trembling voice, "There are three of us … Boss, should we ask Lin Shen to come along?"

"No." Mo Juechen said, "Xu Chen said that Su Tiantian will come too. Four people are enough."

Even though his voice reached Tao Ran's ears through the phone, it couldn't hide the hint of pride hidden in his voice. "Lin Shen will definitely be too embarrassed to see me today. It's useless to ask him."
