My deskmate is always catching me [Rebirth]

Moonshine is not far from Shanhai Road, and it only takes about ten minutes to walk.

After nightfall, the streets that were bustling with traffic during the day completely changed their appearance.

Colorful night lights are lit up on the plane trees standing on both sides, and the whole city is enveloped in a completely different atmosphere from the daytime.

The traffic is bustling and the high-rise buildings are brightly lit. It is indeed one of the top ten cities in the country for night views.

However, Ye Cheng had no interest in admiring it at all, and was doing some mental construction for himself along the way:

Calm down, be sure to calm down later.

But when he walked to the door of the bar, he looked up and saw the familiar light sign, and all his psychological defenses collapsed instantly.

——Moonshine is a gay bar, where he and Lu Xiao first met.

After Ye Cheng went to college, same-sex marriage was legalized.

Everyone around him knows his sexual orientation, and sometimes they go to gay bars to relax.

With a face of his level, once you enter, you will be like a lamb entering a wolf's den.

But he never made appointments, only drank and chatted with friends in the booth.

Moonshine has a special feature. It is open before midnight and starts gathering same-sex friends after midnight.

Many people don't know this and are shocked after accidentally entering a nightclub. This is how Lu Xiao was tricked into the nightclub by her friends.

He had just returned to China that year, and he was surrounded by a group of rich second-generation people who liked him.

Lu Xiao was wearing a tailored black shirt, and her 18.9-meter tall male model's figure was particularly eye-catching. When she passed by their booth, she was like walking hormones, attracting countless eyes to follow her.

Ye Cheng's roommate Xiao 0 immediately suggested that we continue the big adventure game just now, and whoever loses will ask that Tiancai for WeChat.

Amidst the chaotic music and crowd, Ye Cheng met his gaze across a few seats.

Lu Xiao's brows were furrowed, obviously he didn't know there was a "midnight show" here.

Ye Cheng laughed and said, "Are you sure you want him? The mixed race next to him looks more reliable."

"It's not free. Even if you are rejected, you can still talk to him. I haven't seen such a top-notch No. 1 in a long time." Roommate Sihasha.

They played a round of dice, and to their surprise, Ye Cheng lost.

His roommate looked at him with envy: "Come on, come on, remember to share if you want!"

Under the instigation of several people, Ye Cheng had no choice but to bite the bullet and prepare to go.

But just when he raised his head, Lu Xiao suddenly stood up and walked over.

The others let out frightened gasps as they watched him get closer and closer, and finally stood still in front of Ye Cheng.

"Excuse me, can you add me on WeChat?" Lu Xiao took out her mobile phone and said.

His voice was deep and magnetic, and half of the bar fell silent.

Later, Ye Cheng found out that their table was also betting that day.

The mixed-race person was a regular visitor here and knew that Ye Cheng never sent WeChat messages, so he deliberately wanted to play a prank on Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao couldn't stand the excitement and came over to ask for it on impulse.

As a result, on the second day, the most shocking thing happened for Ye Cheng.

At that time, everyone in the dormitory was celebrating that he had an affair and got an offer from Lu.

Only he discovered that the person who asked him to scan the QR code last night had not yet approved his friend application.

The co-author was fucking fooled.

With a speechless mood, Ye Cheng got up early in the morning and went to Lu's to report.

He followed a group of people into the elevator, and the elevator door slowly closed.

Suddenly someone opened the door and a familiar figure walked in.

"Good morning, Mr. Lu." The man who opened the door greeted enthusiastically.

Others all said to the person who came in: "Good morning, Mr. Lu."

In the narrow space, Ye Cheng raised his head and stared at each other with Lu Xiao, who was wearing a suit.

The atmosphere fell into extreme embarrassment.

Seeing this bar again, Ye Cheng suddenly felt new and old hatreds welling up in his heart.

I bet Lu Xiao was lying to him. In fact, he had been to this bar when he was in high school.

Ye Cheng, whose blood was boiling, didn't notice that it was just before eight o'clock, and the "Midnight Show" hadn't even started yet.

He casually took off the school badge and name tag on his school uniform, and pushed the door angrily in.

There was no one on stage at this time, so the atmosphere was not very lively. There was a resident singer performing on the stage.

The receptionist came over here.

Without waiting for him to speak, Ye Cheng said that he had friends gathering here and asked him to help guide them.

There were only a few people in the nearby booths, so they probably went to the private rooms.

The bartender checked the order and asked if he was a girl named Jiang.

Ye Cheng nodded with a cold face and followed him into the aisle.

As soon as I arrived at the door of the private room, I heard booing and deafening music inside.

Ye Cheng opened the door without hesitation, and the smell of smoke that hit his face made it hard to open his eyes.

The environment in the private room was dark, luxurious and ambiguous, and a group of people sat on the sofa and puffed away.

He could vaguely tell that the one sitting in the middle was Lu Xiao, with Jiang Jin and Jiang Yirong sitting next to him.

I can't study at night, so I come to a place like this to smoke and drink, and there are a bunch of random people sitting next to me.

Ye Cheng's face was frighteningly dark.

He walked over quickly, picked up the wine on the table, and threw it in Lu Xiao's face.

There was an uproar in the private room, and the girls covered their mouths and screamed.

The scene was very chaotic.

Lu Xiaozheng deigned to be a wingman for half an hour, but suddenly suffered an unreasonable disaster, and he suddenly became angry.

"Fuck, are you looking for death?" Without thinking, he stood up, grabbed the man's collar, and pulled him over across the coffee table.

This force was such that a button on Ye Cheng's collar broke off, and he rolled to the ground.

The two of them got extremely close in an instant, and the young man's delicate and beautiful face came into view.

Caught off guard.

Even though the surrounding lights were dim, those indifferent and angry eyes still struck the soul directly, and the drooping eyelashes trembled slightly, with a sense of long, thin and fragile.

For some reason, Lu Xiao suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu when looking at the mole in the corner of his eye.

This look... I always feel like I've seen it before somewhere.

His heart moved suddenly.

Fragmented images flashed before my eyes.

There seemed to be a hidden voice telling him that whenever Ye Cheng showed such an expression, he must have done something wrong.

It's his fault.

He shouldn't have a cold war with him, and he shouldn't come to the bar by himself without saying a word.

This absurd consciousness gradually invaded his mind like a wild horse running wild.

Ye Cheng had already prepared to have a fight with him before he came.

He clenched his fists subconsciously, with anger burning in his eyes: "Do you know what you are doing?"

He has long wanted to beat this bastard.

Jiang Jin, who was standing next to him, had recognized him and was so surprised that he quickly stood up and tried to break up the fight.

Who knows, the next second.

Lu Xiao instinctively released his hands to protect his head and blurted out: "I'm sorry, I was wrong!"

Everyone fell silent and looked at them dumbfounded.

There was deathly silence in the box.

The air solidified.

Lu Xiao suddenly realized what he had just said.

Hold……

What's going on? What happened to him just now? Why did he act so outrageously...

For a moment, he felt as if he was being controlled by muscle memory.

The voice in his subconscious told him that he was right to give in.

hateful.

Lu Xiao felt like there was a thunderbolt from the sky. In his proud seventeen years of life, he had never known how to write the word "coward".

Why does this happen?!

Twenty minutes later, on the Shanhai Road, the slightly cold night breeze calmed down the anxious mind.

Lu Xiao's face was livid, and he frowned and said, "That's the way it is. What else do you have to say?"

Ye Cheng's eyes were complicated, and his tone was not much better: "But you shouldn't come here to drink, are you always so inconsistent with your words?"

"I didn't drink."

"Then you smell so much of alcohol?"

"You splashed it, thank you."

After Lu Xiao said this, she turned away and looked away from him, seeming a little aggrieved.

Ye Cheng choked and said nothing with a cold face.

Lu Xiao waited in the cool breeze for nearly a minute without hearing a word the other party said.

He pointed to his soaked T-shirt in disbelief: "You won't apologize to me?"

I don't know if it was because he had been in this high school student's body for a long time, but Ye Cheng felt that as soon as he talked to him, his intelligence suddenly dropped, and his emotions were extremely easy to fluctuate.

He said with a bad look: "Why should I apologize? You knew the answer but didn't tell me during class. Why don't you apologize?"

If this conversation was overheard by Jiang Jin, it is absolutely reasonable to suspect that both of them had their minds squeezed by the door at the same time.

He hasn't used this kind of argumentative language since elementary school.

But Lu Xiao didn't think so, there was even a hint of hurt in his dark eyes.

He was silent for a long time, and suddenly said in an unexpected way: "Ye Cheng, do you give passwords to random people?"

Ye Cheng was stunned by his meaningless words.

After Lu Xiao finished speaking, he turned around and left without waiting for his answer.

His back was full of "I'm unhappy", and his hair, which was wet with alcohol, stood up stubbornly.

A little bit pitiful.

Ye Cheng stood there with doubts on his face.

What does this have to do with passwords?

After that day, Lu Xiao came back to class obediently.

But the two of them still didn't talk to each other, and even moved a distance of ten centimeters between the desks.

Every time the students on duty arranged the tables neatly in the evening, they would find that there was another 38th line of air in the middle the next day.

Jiang Jin was the first to notice something was wrong, but he thought it was the cause of the friction that day and didn't take it too seriously.

Until this situation lasted for three days, and a fire broke out at the city gate and Chi Yu was affected - Ye Cheng stopped copying his homework.

Jiang Jin suddenly felt like the sky was falling and he couldn't bear the nightmare of getting ten consecutive English reading questions wrong, so he plucked up the courage to send a message to Lu Xiao in the self-study class.

Jiulong Wu Yanzu: [Brother Xiao, why don’t you forgive Brother Cheng? He also has good intentions.]

Lu Xiao ignored him.

He continued to work tirelessly: [We can’t be too narrow-minded, how about I set up a line and ask you to have dinner together at noon?]

Lu Xiao looked down at his phone and was about to type.

Jiulong Daniel Wu: [In the past few days, he has been going out to eat with the buddy from the lobster restaurant last time, and everyone happens to know each other. 】

[How about just making an appointment with that store?]

He waited for five minutes, but Lu Xiao still didn't reply to him.

Jiang Jin couldn't help it anymore and typed: [Brother Xiao?]

As soon as I sent it, a red exclamation mark popped up in the chat box.

Jiang Jin: "..."

Lu Xiao blocked him.

that day.

There is another hot post on the forum: What is the current situation between East Building and West Building? Are they at war again? (Swearing in this thread is prohibited)

Main Building: The east building has been very uneventful these past two days. Lao Qi has been causing trouble one after another. Brother Yi is getting angry? He wouldn't have deliberately made trouble for such a trivial matter before, right?

1l: Put an ear.

2l: Thank you for the invitation. Lao Qi was the one who committed suicide first. He spread rumors with others that Brother Yi and his deskmate were having an affair. When word spread to Brother Yi, he was educated.

3l: What, what, what? Brother Yi’s deskmate is not the same Ye Cheng from last time, right?

4l: The one above, yes, is Ye Meili.

…

22l: Hahaha, I’m really convinced by Lao Qi. He is indeed the most mean-mouthed in the Thirteenth Middle School. So is there any evidence? I want to see it too.

23l: He was educated because there was no evidence. He said that Ye Meili was jealous of Miss Jiang and rushed into the private room and poured wine all over him. Afterwards, he chased her out and coaxed her for a long time.

24l: Oh my god, why does it sound a little sweet?

…

38l: Don’t have too many rhythmic people in this building. Is there a serious illness? There are two straight men, what kind of bloody love triangle plot...

39l: The important point for me alone is that Brother Yi was thrown drunk in public, but he didn’t beat that person to the hospital?!

40l: Upstairs, this is what drove me into the pit. It knocked me to death!

Jiang Jin looked at the reply below and his heart skipped a beat.

Looking at the interface where Lu Xiao blocked him again, it clicked again.

Something is wrong, something is very wrong with them.

There was no self-study on Friday night, and everyone was busy scrolling and chatting.

Huang Sheng'an, who lives next door, ran to the entrance of No. 13 Middle School as soon as class was over, waiting for Ye Cheng to finish school.

Gao Qiulan bought lobster and beef bones and specially called him over for dinner.

The two of them first turned to the alley to buy roast duck.

Huang Sheng'an tilted his head and looked at Ye Cheng, who was silent all the way, and asked curiously: "What's wrong with you? The word 'unhappy' is written all over your face. Who offended you?"

Ye Cheng has been really depressed these days.

He originally thought that with his understanding of Lu Xiao, he could easily control this guy's changes, but instead he got himself involved.

In the final analysis, he overlooked one point.

There is still a big difference between 27-year-old Lu Xiao and 17-year-old Lu Xiao.

Twenty-seven-year-old Lu Xiao will confess her feelings, but seventeen-year-old Lu Xiao will bury her emotions in her heart.

After all, he is a little boy in a sensitive period.

He looked Huang Sheng'an up and down until he got goosebumps from looking at him.

That's right, isn't there a seventeen-year-old high school student here?

"If your friend is suddenly angry and refuses to communicate with you, how should you stop him from being angry?" he asked seriously.

Huang Sheng'an was shocked by his question full of youthful pain. It took him a while to say, "Why is he angry with you?"

Ye Cheng thought for a moment and said, "It seems because I told others the password, but I don't seem to have done anything like this."

Huang Sheng'an was speechless and choked: "The game password? This has to be taken care of. Is she your girlfriend?"

"...No." Ye Cheng found it difficult to explain to him.

Carrying the roast duck, they walked through the sparsely populated alley and met several people holding cigarettes in their mouths.

Ye Cheng lowered his head and thought about what to say when he heard a familiar voice.

"I said who is walking without looking at the road? It turns out he is number one in our grade."

The sound of the broken gong's voice, which sounds like a slap in the face, will be deeply remembered after hearing it once.

Ye Cheng raised his head and looked at Zhang Qi with a sarcastic face.

Zhang Qi saw Huang Sheng'an's school uniform, curled his lips and said, "Why, you haven't been playing with the guy named Lu recently, and now you're hanging out with this pretty boy?"

Huang Sheng'an didn't know about Ye Cheng's sexual orientation until he was in college, so he frowned and stared at him without knowing why.

Ye Cheng gave him a cold look and was about to leave him.

Zhang Qi suddenly bumped into him with a shrug of his shoulders, and grabbed a plastic bag he was holding.

Ye Cheng didn't expect his sudden move. The bag in his hand flew out and the roast duck spilled all over the floor.

"Oops, I'm sorry, I accidentally bumped into you." Zhang Qi immediately raised his hands in a gesture of surrender and said shamelessly.

"Hey, why are you like this? Why don't you apologize?" Huang Sheng'an got angry and said angrily.

Ye Cheng stopped him, looked at Zhang Qi and said: "No need to apologize, just pay me a new one."

Zhang Qi smiled gloomily and said, "Are you sure you dare to ask me to compensate you?"

As he said that, he raised his hand to pull Ye Cheng's collar.

Unexpectedly, Ye Cheng's reaction was faster than his.

He quickly blocked Zhang Qi's arms with his backhand, used the force to cut his arms behind his back, and pressed them against the wall.

A series of actions happened in just a few seconds, and no one had time to do anything.

"What are you afraid of?" Ye Cheng pressed his shoulders and said coldly.

There was a slight sound as the bones collided.

"Fuck you, uncle!" Zhang Qi squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth in pain.

Only then did the few people behind him react and all rushed forward.

When Huang Sheng'an saw something was wrong with his posture, he immediately spat and pretended to fight them.

At this moment, several figures walked over from the alley.

Ye Cheng threw Zhang Qi aside and saw the figure leading the way.

It's Lu Xiao.

Zhang Qi froze in place, obviously seeing him too.

After noticing Zhang Qi's eyes, several other people stayed there and did not dare to move.

"Brother Zhang, what are you doing?" Jiang Jin looked at the roast duck scattered on the floor and asked with a sneer.

Lu Xiao did not look at Ye Cheng, but stood face to face with Zhang Qi.

The atmosphere between the two was somewhat tense, as if they understood each other tacitly.

Zhang Qi snorted and said sadly: "I didn't do anything, I just accidentally touched his roast duck."

Jiang Jin glanced at Lu Xiao and said, "Oh, we are all classmates. If we touch each other, we should pay for one. Right, Brother Cheng?"

He blinked at Ye Cheng.

Zhang Qi mocked: "Compensate, of course I have to compensate."

"No need to compensate."

Lu Xiao's voice sounded, and everyone around became silent.

Ye Cheng looked at him sharply, his fingers hanging by his side slightly tightened.

Jiang Jin was even more stunned, almost saying "No, you don't want to help Zhang Qi" written on his face.

Zhang Qi didn't expect him to say that, and his expression was very exciting.

Lu Xiao moved his lips, and his next words made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

"It's not good to waste too much food. Eat what's on the ground."

The air was dead silent again.

Zhang Qi gasped, and the anger in his eyes was completely aroused.

Compared with the real school bully, he is still a bit inferior.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Jiang Jin quickly smoothed things over and said, "Um, Brother Xiao, aren't you here to buy roast duck? Let's go quickly, we still have to queue up...it's already six o'clock."

Lu Xiao still looked at Zhang Qi motionless, and from Ye Cheng's perspective, he could clearly see his expression.

His eyebrows were pressed low, his black eyes flashed with coldness, and his nose was slightly open, showing an angry look.

Zhang Qi stared at him for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "Lu Xiao, don't be too arrogant."

He glanced at Ye Cheng again, turned around and left angrily.

Lu Xiao didn't stop him.

After he left, Jiang Jin patted his chest with lingering fear and said, "Brother Xiao, calm down. You two made a pledge at the Academic Affairs Office last time, and you will be punished if you fight again."

The boy next to them was the captain of the basketball team, a mixed-race boy. He began to persuade: "It's just that it's not worth it for this kind of rotten fish and rotten shrimp. Don't forget what those old men said last time."

Lu Xiao said nothing, looking past the roast duck on the ground and landing on Ye Cheng.

He looked at Ye Cheng, then glanced at Huang Sheng'an beside him, turned around and left with a sullen face.

Ye Cheng frowned slightly.

Jiang Jin waved to him and quickly turned to chase Lu Xiao.

"Brother Xiao, don't you want to buy roast duck?"

The captain of the basketball team smiled at Ye Cheng and left with them.

Huang Sheng'an shook his head repeatedly and said: "What a bad luck! I didn't expect No. 13 Middle School to be so chaotic. Please tell me why you want to transfer."

He picked up the roast duck on the ground and threw it into the trash can, and then said, "Are those few from your class just now? They are quite loyal."

"Yeah." Ye Cheng lowered his eyes and responded.

Huang Sheng'an asked him strangely: "Why do I feel that the most handsome guy seems to have some objections to you? Are you taking his position as the class leader?"

Ye Cheng was a little depressed at first, but he almost made him laugh.

"Damn it, you're the class idol, you're the school idol."

Huang Sheng'an became interested in gossip: "Tsk, it's really rare for you to admit that someone is more handsome than you. The school hunk of No. 13 Middle School is interesting. What's his name?"

Ye Cheng said: "Lu Xiao, I didn't admit that he is more handsome than me, I just stated the facts."

Huang Sheng'an was startled, and his expression suddenly became a little strange.

"His name is Lu Xiao?" he said in disbelief.

"What's wrong?" Ye Cheng looked at him.

Huang Sheng'an's mouth twitched: "The person who kicked you out of the team in the game that day, the note you gave him was Lu Xiao."

Ye Cheng: "?"

Huang Sheng'an felt like he was stuck in his throat and said hesitantly: "Isn't that the angry friend you mentioned is him? Why do I feel... that he seems to be jealous?"
