Chapter 168 Childhood Friends (23)
After wrapping the bouquet, Lin Luo's cousin asked, "Do you need a greeting card? Or I can give you a greeting card and you can write it yourself."
Chen Ye, "No need."
After paying the money, he and Lin Luo walked out of the flower shop.
Because Chen also wanted to give Duan Xu a surprise, he didn't let Duan Xu pick him up so that Duan Xu wouldn't see the bouquet.
Lin Luo parked his car in a parking space near the flower shop. He said to Chen Ye, "Let's go. I'll take you there. I remember you were in Yu Hai Hua Ting, right? My home is not far from there."
Chen didn't refuse, "Okay, thanks."
The car stopped at the gate of the community, and Chen Ye got out of the car. Lin Luo called him, holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand, "Don't you want the flowers?"
Chen was also worried about crushing the flowers, so he put them in the back seat when he got in the car, but he forgot about it when he got out of the car. He took the flowers and said, "I'll treat you to dinner some other day."
Lin Luo was not polite either, "Then I won't be polite."
After watching Lin Luo's car drive away, Chen Ye walked into the community. He did not notice that Duan Xu, who had just come out of the supermarket after buying something, witnessed everything that had just happened not far behind him.
Duan Xu's eyes were frozen, the air pressure around him was extremely low, and his hands holding the shopping bags kept tightening. After a while, he took a deep breath and walked towards the community.
When Chen Ye came back, he saw that Duan Xu was not there and guessed that he had gone to buy groceries. Chen Ye placed the flowers on the sofa, waiting for Duan Xu to come back before giving them to him.
"System, I don't think I've ever sent him flowers. This has been the case for several worlds, and he's always the one buying flowers for me."
System, [Send, send a big one today, send it tomorrow too. ]
Chen Ye: …
He just needs to share it with the system.
[Hehe, I shouldn't have reminded you that you could stay with 100 points. Look, if you hadn't fallen in love with the mission target, wouldn't you have saved enough points to go back? ]
Chen Ye, "I can't control my feelings. It's not a loss for me to stay in each world. It's like living many more years, and I can be with him. It's super cool, okay?"
System, [Okay, okay, take your time and enjoy yourself. You will enjoy yourself even more next time.]
"What do you mean?"
The only answer he got was the system's sarcastic smile.
Before Chen Ye could ask clearly, the sound of the door opening was heard. Chen Ye, who was sitting on the sofa, turned back happily with a gleam in his eyes.
However, compared with Chen Ye, Duan Xu's face could be said to be overcast.
Chen was also stunned, "What's wrong with you?"
He doesn't look very happy.
Duan Xu walked into the apartment and approached Chen Ye step by step. He moved closer to the sofa, supported himself with his hands on the sofa, and trapped Chen Ye between his arms.
Staring at Duan Xu's gloomy face, Chen Ye felt strange, "What's wrong with you? Who made you unhappy?"
When he caught a glimpse of the roses on the sofa, Duan Xu's face became even uglier.
He said, "You told me not to fall in love, and if I did, I would ignore me and move out."
Chen Ye took it for granted, "Yeah, what's wrong?"
His eyes widened, "You want to fall in love?"
Duan Xu got closer and closer, and his previously calm eyes were filled with a sinister look that Chen Ye couldn't see through. "I can't talk, I can't get close to others, but you can, right?"
"What are you talking about?" Chen also wanted to push Duan Xu away, "Who am I getting close to?"
Duan Xu reached out and clamped Chen Ye's wrist. This was the first time he pinched Chen Ye with such great force, and Chen Ye's wrist turned red.
Duan Xu's eyes were dark. "I didn't want to care about you too much before, and I didn't want to interfere too much in your life, because we grew up together, and the best state for you and me is like this. I can't selfishly pull you into my path and make you suffer like me."
The sudden confession stunned Chen Ye, but Duan Xu did not give him time to react. He bent down and kissed Chen Ye's lips. Chen Ye's eyes widened.
No, brother, you're so sudden.
Duan Xu's kiss was cold, he attacked Chen indifferently, and Chen felt dizzy due to lack of oxygen.
A broad and warm hand stroked the back of Chen Ye's neck, and Chen Ye felt a tingling sensation rising from his spine.
After a long time, Chen Ye was really out of breath, and he pushed Duan Xu away with force.
Fresh air rushed into his nostrils, and Chen took several breaths before he felt his heartbeat return to normal.
"What's wrong with you?"
Duan Xu lowered his head, his hand still on the back of Chen Ye's neck, gently stroking it, "I have raised you since you were a child. Sometimes you are very well-behaved, and sometimes you are very willful. No matter which side of you you are, I like you very much. Some time ago, I naively thought that your feelings for me were the same as my feelings for you, but now it seems that I was overthinking."
Just now downstairs, Duan Xu saw with his own eyes that Chen Ye accepted flowers from another man. It would have been fine if it was nothing else, but it was actually roses.
Duan Xu felt heartbroken. The person he had never wanted to get close to, turned out to have fallen in love with someone else in a corner unknown to him.
Chen was also surprised. Did Duan Xu think that he didn't like him?
"You kissed me just now, does that mean you like me? I like you too, our feelings are the same."
Chen Ye's round eyes were a little red because of the kiss just now. His expression was sincere, which stunned Duan Xu.
Duan Xu could hardly believe it. "You like the same thing as me?"
Chen Ye raised his head and placed a kiss on Duan Xu's lips, "Of course, you haven't said it clearly, so I thought I would say it myself."
He took the green rose from the sofa and held it in front of Duan Xu, "I also bought you flowers."
Duan Xu looked down at the green rose in front of him. It turned out that the flower was for him.
Chen Ye now realized why Duan Xu was so abnormal today. Duan Xu had misunderstood the relationship between Lin Luo and him.
For Chen Ye, problems that can be solved through communication will never be left until the next day. He reached out and hugged Duan Xu's waist, "Actually, my colleague accompanied me to buy flowers just now, and he happened to drop me off on the way back. Then, when I got off the car, I forgot to take the flowers, so he handed them to me. It's that simple."
"I have never liked anyone else. The one I have always liked is you."
The straightforward confession made Duan Xu a little dizzy. A huge joy hit Duan Xu, making his blood boil. It turned out to be just a misunderstanding, and Chen Ye also liked him.
Duan Xu put the bouquet aside. He stared at Chen Ye's swollen lips and felt a little distressed. He had bitten Chen Ye just now and Chen Ye's mouth was broken.
"Does your mouth hurt?"
Chen Ye snorted, "It hurts a lot, but I don't blame you. Don't bite me next time."
Duan Xu said: "Okay."
Chen also said: "You can't just say yes, you have to guarantee it."
"I promise."
A mistake broke the ice between the two people. Seeing the increasing favorability, Chen was in a good mood.
"That's more like it," Chen Ye asked, "Do you like flowers?"
Duan Xu glanced at the flower and said, "I like it."
He likes it very much, and he likes anything that Chen Ye gives him.
Chen also raised an eyebrow, "So now we are together?"
Duan Xu stopped talking.
Chen Ye kicked Duan Xu's calf, hitting his shin bone, "What do you mean? We've kissed and confessed, and you don't admit it?"
