Before long, they strolled to the edge of the sports field.
There were several classes in the middle of their physical education on the field. Some were playing soccer, some were playing badminton, some were playing basketball, some were hula hooping, and some were flying kites.
Chu Yi said, “Do you know where the three holy places for dating in our school are?”
Qin Yiheng, “I don’t.”
Chu Yi stretched out three fingers and folded them one by one, “The small forest behind the Cold Palace, the sports field at night, and outside the courtyard walls.” Then he asked Qin Yiheng, “Do you know the Cold Palace?”
Qin Yiheng, “The science and technology building.”
“That’s right.” Chu Yi laughed, “Do you know why it’s called the Cold Palace?”
Qin Yiheng thought, “It’s too cold?”
Chu Yi nodded, “Pretty much, because it’s cold in winter, cold in summer and cold all year round, so it’s called the Cold Palace. It is said that this name was passed down from the last last last last year, I don’t know how many ‘last’s there are.”
Qin Yiheng, “It was already called that during my freshman year.”
Chu Yi, “It has a long history.”
Qin Yiheng asked, “Have you been to those places?”
Chu Yi answered with a question, “Do you know that I’ve never dated?”
Qin Yiheng nodded, “I know.”
“So except for the sports field, I haven’t been to those.” Chu Yi said. “It’s said that other than the sports field, you can always see more than one couple in the two other places whenever you go there.”
Qin Yiheng asked, “According to who?”
Chu Yi, “My university roommates.”
During university, there was a period when Chu Yi wanted to date. The reason was because of his roommates. During that time, it was as if they planned it together, all of them got cuffed one by one.
Later, this idea was also dropped because of his roommates, because the first love of all his roommates lasted less than a month.
He saw how his roommates broke up, dated, then broke up and dated again. Gradually, he felt that love seemed very troublesome.
So for the next four years, only Chu Yi remained alone.
He’s often by himself in the dormitory; eating, sleeping, and studying alone. When his roommates finally came back, he still had to listen to them share their daily life and feed him dog food[1].
Just like the friends who are keen on introducing Chu Yi to other people in recent years. In those years, it was his roommates who kept trying to help Chu Yi find a partner.
Whenever a boy or girl approaches Chu Yi, his roommates always shout louder than anyone else.
Three men can also make out a play. Even when Chu Yi only said a few words to someone, he can receive a 200,000-word pure love novel co-produced by his roommates whenever he comes back.
Yesterday, after he sent the marriage photo to his Moments, his roommates also chatted under the comments. Each of their tones were very much like an old mother. It was very gratifying, it had the feeling of their cub finally finding a lover.
Chu Yi was puzzled for some time. He didn’t know why everyone was so concerned about his life-long event[2].
It ranged from his grandma’s friend to his little cousin. Every time they see him and chat, the topic will turn to his life-long event.
“Qin Yiheng,” Chu Yi called the person beside him and asked, “Before marrying me, did anyone urge you to get married or date?“
Qin Yiheng thought for a bit, said, “My mother would occasionally, nobody else.”
Chu Yi raised his eyebrows slightly, “You’re thirty years old, yet no one else urges you except for your mother?”
Qin Yiheng shook his head, “No.”
But thinking about it, it made sense. If he had a friend like Qin Yiheng, he probably also wouldn’t persuade him to date or get married. He would only praise him blindly and let him pursue his career seriously.
Although Qin Yiheng flirts so occasionally, Chu Yi really can’t imagine what it would be like when Qin Yiheng dates seriously.
It’s hard to imagine and hard to carry through.
If there were any persuasions, it would also be a roundabout persuasion. Just like the auntie who comes to clean up at home, she doesn’t dare to talk to Qin Yiheng directly, but she can say it to Mother Qin.
Then, because Qin Yiheng is too outstanding, she couldn’t find a suitable partner to introduce to him and simply let it go.
“And you?” Qin Yiheng also asked him, “You often went on blind dates before?”
Chu Yi remembered the fear of being dominated by blind dates at that time, “That’s right.”
Qin Yiheng, “Was there anyone, you fancied?”
Chu Yi turned to look at Qin Yiheng. He felt that Qin Yiheng seemed to have paused when he said this.
But it might have also been his mishearing.
Chu Yi shook his head, “No, it seemed like I was dealing with homework given by my relatives. Almost all of them ended with one meal.”
Qin Yiheng, “But Zhao Zhongliang seemed to like you a lot.”
Chu Yi smiled, “You still remember his name.”
Qin Yiheng, “Mn.”
Chu Yi, “Things like ‘like’ need to be from both parties. If it’s one-sided, it won’t work.”
Qin Yiheng was absorbed in some thoughts.
Chu Yi, “Qin Yiheng, has anyone confessed to you?”
Qin Yiheng nodded, “Yes.”
Chu Yi suddenly became curious, “Men or women?”
Qin Yiheng, “Both.”
Chu Yi felt sour in his heart, but he couldn’t resist his curiosity, “How did they confess?”
Qin Yiheng, “There were too many, which one are you asking?”
Chu Yi took in a breath of cold air. Although he knew that Qin Yiheng was just stating facts and that this is how he usually talks.
But this tone and statement, why does it sound so…
Proud?
Chu Yi, “Then tell me the one that left the deepest impression.”
Qin Yiheng tilted his head and began to search seriously, which one was the one that impressed him most?
After he thought for a whole minute, when Chu Yi thought he didn’t want to talk about this topic, Qin Yiheng spoke.
“Then I’ll talk about the one during my 3rd year in university.” Qin Yiheng seemed like he recalled with great effort, “I got tricked. Someone lied that there are classes in the evening and asked me to come to the classroom.”
Chu Yi suddenly laughed.
Why was there a cute feeling when Qin Yiheng said ‘I got tricked’?
Qin Yiheng was interrupted by Chu Yi’s laugh, so he turned to look at him.
Chu Yi immediately stopped laughing, “Sorry, continue.”
Qin Yiheng continued, “When I arrived, the classroom lights weren’t turned on even though the bell was going to ring in three minutes, so I thought something wasn’t right and wanted to leave.”
Chu Yi felt that the climax was coming and raised his eyes to look at Qin Yiheng earnestly.
Qin Yiheng suddenly smiled when he met Chu Yi’s eyes.
Chu Yi was briefly stunned, “What? What are you smiling at?”
Qin Yiheng, “Has anyone told you your eyes are beautiful?”
Chu Yi nodded, “Quite a lot of people.”
Qin Yiheng suddenly stopped smiling.
He continued, “After retracting only two steps, the classroom suddenly lit up. I turned around and saw that a boy lit those lights in the classroom.” Qin Yiheng raised his hand and pinched his fingers, “Similar to the lights on Christmas trees, very small, hanging all over the classroom.”
“That boy stood in front of a microphone stand with a guitar in his hand and sang a song.”
Chu Yi let out a “wow” in his mind, “What song did he sing?”
Qin Yiheng, “I don’t know.”
Chu Yi asked again, “Was the song good?”
Qin Yiheng, “I don’t know. I turned around and left.”
Chu Yi, “…”
Qin Yiheng, “It was very boring.”
Chu Yi, “…”
I see.
He-, he thinks it isn’t bad. It doesn’t sound too fancy or exaggerated.
And since the other party was even confident enough to sing with a guitar, he can probably sing quite well.
Chu Yi, “Did you guys have any contact later?”
Qin Yiheng shook his head, “No.” Qin Yiheng said, then added, “I don’t know. The lights were too dim that night, I don’t even know who he is.”
Chu Yi was surprised, “You didn’t inquire?”
Qin Yiheng, “No, I don’t want to know.”
Chu Yi took a deep breath.
OK.
Chu Yi asked, “Are there any others? The kind with unique confessions.”
Qin Yiheng, “Maybe, I can’t remember too clearly.”
Chu Yi, “Ah. Then why do you remember so clearly about this time?”
Christmas lights, guitar, microphone stand, you remember it all.
Qin Yiheng answered, “Because I got tricked.”
Chu Yi burst out laughing.
Fine, not because the confession was unique, but because our Student Qin got tricked.
“And you?” Qin Yiheng also asked Chu Yi, “Did anyone like you?”
If Qin Yiheng asked before, Chu Yi might just laugh it off.
Chu Yi has always been shy about romantic matters. He will hold things back because he is shy, will not admit to things, and doesn’t take initiative.
So to him, it’s very embarrassing for him to admit that others like him.
But just now, he announced that he has to be honest.
“Yes.” After Chu Yi said this, he felt his ears begin to heat up.
Qin Yiheng showcased his ability of copying Chu Yi and asked, “Any deep impressions?”
Chu Yi, “They weren’t as romantic as yours. The most I got was to receive love letters.”
Qin Yiheng was confused, “Romantic?”
Chu Yi laughed and didn’t intend to argue about this with Qin Yiheng, “Not romantic, not romantic.”
Qin Yiheng asked, “What was written in the love letter?”
Chu Yi, “What else? Take ‘liking you’ as the thesis and expand it into an 800-word essay.”
Qin Yiheng laughed, “You’re very funny.”
Chu Yi also laughed.
This is the second time Qin Yiheng said he was funny.
Still with such a serious attitude.
Chu Yi never thought that he would talk about these topics with his husband one day.
It was like sharing the past with a new friend he just met.
“Qin Yiheng.” Chu Yi searched for a conversational topic, “When did you make your plan to get married this year?”
Qin Yiheng quickly replied, “Around when I was 25 years old.”
Chu Yi was surprised, “Why? Why did you suddenly have this idea at that time?”
Qin Yiheng, “At that time, my company just took off, so I talked about the future development of the company during the meeting with everyone. When I went back, I also planned out my own future.” Qin Yiheng turned to Chu Yi, “At the age of 30, the company will be stable, and I can also consider my life-long event.”
Chu Yi really wants to applaud this President Qin. His life path is completely according to his plan, this must feel so good.
So it was five years ago…
Not to mention five years, taking Chu Yi as an example, he was confused for a period of time after graduation. He opened a studio, but because he had no reputation, his business was bleak and hazy for a while.
Whether it was work or marriage, it had always been step by step until now.
Chu Yi asked again, “It’s pretty much the end of the year now. If you hadn’t met me that time,” Chu Yi choked a bit, then said quietly, “Would you find someone else to marry?”
Qin Yiheng nodded, “If there’s someone suitable, I will marry.”
Chu Yi, “…”
He was angry to death.
Why did he ask this question?
He clearly knows what Qin Yiheng would answer.
Yet he still had to listen to him say it out loud.
“However,” Qin Yiheng said, “I’m glad to meet you. I haven’t met anyone who suits me so well before you. And I haven’t met anyone like you that makes me feel so suitable.”
Chu Yi tried hard to laugh, “Is that right?”
“Yes.” Qin Yiheng nodded. “We’re quite fated.”
Chu Yi was a bit relieved.
But still a little angry.
Chu Yi asked again, “What if you haven’t met someone suitable this year?”
Qin Yiheng, “Then I’ll drag it. This kind of thing can’t simply be asked for.”
Chu Yi was angry to the point of making trouble without reason, “What if you never meet them? When are you going to drag it until?”
Qin Yiheng thought for a moment.
It’s true that other than Chu Yi, he doesn’t think anyone else is suitable.
