Fen Mao flatteringly smiled, “It was good, excellent.”

Then he requested Lin Yuyan, “Have you learnt them effectively?” 

Lin Yuyan hurriedly shook his head and answered, “No, we’re not acquainted.” 

Gu Yaoyang nonetheless saved a clean face, which seemed very critical.

Despite the fact that he was younger, he may nonetheless converse and act round these gamers as if he had been an outdated coach with loads of expertise. 

Final evening’s confession additionally gave him a brand new understanding of the opposite. Though he didn’t know the rationale, he was positive that Gu Yaoyang appeared to essentially like him. He needed to reply, however he couldn’t, in spite of everything, till now, he nonetheless hadn’t sorted out his thoughts.

Does he additionally like Gu Yaoyang?

“Why are you continue to stupidly standing there?” 

“Ah?”

He turned his head and requested, “What’s unsuitable?” 

Lin Yuyan requested, “Is it your first time as a coach?”

Gu Yaoyang raised his eyebrows, “Why?”

Lin Yuyan stated, “I believed you’ll solely educate them how one can battle. I didn’t count on you to…” 

Gu Yaoyang replied, “Preventing is certainly the principle factor I’m educating them, however what needs to be stated ought to nonetheless be stated. You return and pack your baggage first.” 

Lin Yuyan requested, “Why ought to I pack my baggage? I’m not about to depart anytime quickly…” 

Gu Yaoyang crossed his arms in entrance of his chest as he stated, “Then what had been you fascinated by after I was speaking simply now?” 

Lin Yuyan truthfully admitted his thought, “Nothing, I used to be simply in a daze.” 

Gu Yaoyang glanced at him and stated, “Tomorrow, we’ll exit to play. There occurs to be a scenic spot close by, you’ll be able to play there. Zeng Yi will even go.” 

“Actually?” 

“Yeah.” Gu Yaoyang touched the field of cigarettes he hadn’t smoked for 2 days earlier than pouring one out, “By the way in which, take mine too, will you?”

Lin Yuyan nodded his head, “After all, I’ll, don’t look down on me.” He rotated and began to stroll earlier than stopping once more. He abruptly rotated and embarrassedly stated, “Simply now… You had been wonderful.”

“Huh?” 

“Yeah- You look cool once you’re teaching them!” After saying that, Lin Yuyan’s face grew to become crimson as he hurried away. 

After he left, Mr. Zeng came to visit and borrowed a cigarette. With a dog-like gentleman’s crutch in his hand, he known as Gu Yaoyang to the window and seemed downstairs with a smile.

Trying down, they noticed Lin Yuyan exiting the constructing and walked on the snow with brisk steps, “He’s boy.”

Gu Yaoyang had all the time been easy in coping with relationships, “I preferred to tease him and ended up creating emotions, is it so obscure?” 

Mr. Zeng requested, “Then he to you…”

Gu Yaoyang exhaled a smoke ring: “It doesn’t matter whether or not he likes me or not. We’re not from the identical world, and nothing good will come out of it.” 

Mr. Zeng already knew about Lin Yuyan’s background and obtained to know him additional when he taught him how to attract these previous few days, so he continued, “Are you positive? What if he needs to be with you?” 

Gu Yaoyang shook his head. He gazed on the determine that appeared to slide away from him as he stated, “He received’t.”

“He’s silly, timid, and gradual, and dares not resist all the selections his father made for him. His household can not settle for me, so he won’t have this concept.”

Mr. Zeng replied, “Are you eighteen or eighty-one? How may you suppose up to now into the longer term? You even thought concerning the ending earlier than you even began?” 

Gu Yaoyang raised his eyebrows, “After all, I’ll give it some thought in the long term. If he can bear a baby, I’ll even in all probability take into consideration the identify of the kid.” 

“Didn’t you say that there is no such thing as a consequence?”

Gu Yaoyang glanced at him, “So I can’t take into consideration this if we are able to’t bear any consequence?” 

Mr. Zeng smiled, “However I believe it’s possible you’ll be too decisive. Did he offer you a response?”

Gu Yaoyang stated, “It’s not possible.”

“So positive?”

“He doesn’t have that braveness.”

“You’re underestimating him an excessive amount of.” Mr. Zeng stated, “Let’s suppose he actually gave you a response then?”

Gu Yaoyang chuckled, “Then it might be me who’s timid.” 

Mr. Zeng understood every little thing: “So in the long run, it’s you who’s timid.”

“Let’s make a wager.”

“Huh?”

Mr. Zeng stated, “Simply wager on whether or not he has the braveness to be with you.”

Gu Yaoyang stated, “No wager.”

Mr. Zeng stated, “I believe individuals ought to nonetheless have a bit of little bit of hope and creativeness about their future.” 

Gu Yaoyang stated: “I’m not an artist.”

“Simply wager 5 years of labor within the skilled ring competitors.” Mr. Zeng stated to himself, and after he completed talking, he took his crutches and walked away.

Gu Yaoyang didn’t reply, he stared at Lin Yuyan’s determine getting smaller earlier than saying, “Okay.”

The place they’re going right now was situated within the northernmost a part of Mostin, the place there’s a very distant small fishing village. There wasn’t a single vacationer there, mainly nobody even when it was peak vacationer season. There have been only some homestays and one or two eating places that had been common and perfunctory. 

Lin Yuyan had already ready for this journey for some time. Along with toiletries, he went to the grocery store to purchase plenty of snacks, simply in case they’d need some on their journey. 

Simply after packing, the bus to the membership got here. Lin Yuyan dragged his baggage to the driving force and jumped into the automobile fortunately.

Trying on the different’s yellow hair, he gave the impression to be Shao Zheng. 

Lin Yuyan was shocked and raised his hand to say hey to him. Shao Zheng nodded barely however stated nothing.

“Hey, this fashion.” Meng Hu noticed him standing alone and waved his hand enthusiastically. Lin Yuyan glanced at Gu Yaoyang once more and walked over with pursed lips.

It takes about 4 to 5 hours to journey from town to the fishing village. Meng Hu was fairly the chatterbox, and he was additionally a fellow countryman from Linzhou. After the person opened his mouth, there can be no finish to his chatter. At first, Lin Yuyan listened rigorously, however after some time, he couldn’t assist his thoughts from drifting away from the dialog. 

Now and again, he would look across the bus. Gu Yaoyang had already hung up his cellphone and was speaking to Shao Zheng. The opposite was listening to him together with his ears sideways, and he appeared to lean nearer to him to hear extra clearly. Though he didn’t put his head towards the opposite, the space was at most fifteen centimeters.

Aren’t you a bit too shut? They need to hold their distance even when they’re associates. 

“Xiao Yan Xiao Yan, have you ever ever eaten ice sweet from Ruifeng Previous Road? It’s actually my childhood reminiscence. It tastes wonderful. My mom introduced me two packs earlier than, however I ate them earlier than I obtained to the airport…Eh- The place are you going?”

Earlier than Meng Hu completed talking, Lin Yuyan stood up, considered it, and stated, “I, I’ll go get a bottle of water.”

The mineral water was positioned in entrance of the bus, and Lin Yuyan slowly walked towards it. 

Immediately a bottle of water was handed to him by Gu Yaoyang. He paused for just a few seconds and noticed Gu Yaoyang search for at him. He informed him to return and sit down, and to not casually stroll round.

Meng Hu blinked, “I don’t have a spot to go to the bathroom after consuming an excessive amount of.” Simply as he was about to proceed the earlier matter, Lin Yuyan really stood up once more, “You…”

“I, I’ll go get it…”

“Lin Yuyan.”

Right now, Gu Yaoyang turned to name him, Lin Yuyan instantly gave a “huh” and requested, “What’s the matter?”

“Come and sit.”

Lin Yuyan stated, “Then, what about Shao Zheng?”
