After traveling through the book, I conquered the male protagonist Long Aotian!

As time passed, Gu Qingze, Chu Lingxiao and Liu Mubai became increasingly close, and gradually, they became good friends.

During these days, Liu Mubai would often give them some of his favorite books.

Those books either have profound ideological connotations or moving storylines, and each one seems to carry Liu Mubai's heart.

Sometimes, he would carefully prepare some small desserts for them.

Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao were never stingy either. They would always give Liu Mubai various things that interested him as return gifts.

Maybe it is an exquisite painting, maybe it is a precious ancient book, or maybe it is a unique small ornament.

As their relationship deepened, a bold idea seemed to emerge in Liu Mubai's mind.

One day, as if he had made some important decision, he asked some tentative questions that sounded strange and illogical.

After hearing this, Chu Lingxiao was a little confused. Just as he was about to continue asking questions to find out the meaning behind these words, he was stopped in time by Gu Qingze.

Ling Xiao indeed did not understand the meaning of Liu Mubai's words, but Gu Qingze understood them instantly.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Liu Mubai thoughtfully, as if he wanted to see through his eyes to see the secrets deep in his heart.

Liu Mubai nervously waited for a response, his hands unconsciously twisted together, his slightly trembling hands revealing his inner uneasiness.

Gu Qingze looked at Liu Mubai's nervous expression and said with a smile, trying to make his tone as light as possible, as if to ease the tense atmosphere: "Okay, then I look forward to meeting you later."

When Liu Mubai heard Gu Qingze's response, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes for a moment, but in that surprise, there was also a hint of worry, as if he was both looking forward to what was about to happen, and yet also a little uneasy.

Chu Lingxiao was confused as he listened to what was going on. He looked at the two of them in bewilderment, his heart full of curiosity, not understanding what kind of communication was going on between them.

.....................

After returning home, Chu Lingxiao's doubts became stronger and stronger, and he finally couldn't help but ask it.

He looked at Gu Qingze with confusion, waiting for his answer.

Gu Qingze looked a little excited at this moment, and looked at Chu Lingxiao with burning eyes, with a hint of joy in his voice:

"Ling Xiao, it seems that Liu Mubai really regards us as good friends. He wants to introduce his boyfriend to us."

Chu Lingxiao immediately grasped the key information when he heard it, and a flash of understanding flashed across his eyes: "Boyfriend? I said my previous speculation was correct."

"Yeah." Gu Qingze nodded and praised generously, "Ling Xiao is the best."

However, Chu Lingxiao's thoughts did not stop there, he continued to think about the conversation just now.

"But..." Chu Lingxiao said after thinking for a moment, "I didn't understand what you said just now. Are the words you just said the unique suggestive language of this group?"

"Not really." Gu Qingze smiled, with a hint of calmness in his smile, "But I do have some knowledge of it."

"Dabble?" Chu Lingxiao approached Gu Qingze and looked at him curiously, his eyes full of inquiry. "Qingze, you haven't made your sexual orientation clear before, how do you know those things?"

Gu Qingze raised the corner of his mouth slightly and replied: "Maybe I was always curious about everything before."

"I like to explore unknown areas and learn about different people and things, so I came across some information about this group inadvertently."

"But Liu Mubai did not say anything difficult to understand. The reason why you, Ling Xiao, find it difficult to understand is because you did not pay attention to the details." Gu Qingze explained patiently.

"Pay attention to details?" Chu Lingxiao recalled for a moment, trying to recall the conversation just now, "Well, Liu Mubai was a little bit abnormal today. He suddenly hesitated and wanted to say something, his eyes flickered, and he was a little entangled."

"But...Qingze, when did you become so sharp?" Chu Lingxiao teased, "I remember you were usually very slow."

"...It's all because of Ling Xiao." When Gu Qingze said these words, his eyes were a little evasive, and he seemed a little embarrassed.

"Because of me?" Chu Lingxiao pointed at himself in disbelief, a little surprised.

"Yeah." Gu Qingze nodded seriously, "Because you told me your speculation before, I habitually paid more attention to it."

"But Ling Xiao...when did you become so insensitive?" Gu Qingze asked back.

"Because I listened to Qingze's words." Chu Lingxiao smiled helplessly, with a hint of tenderness in his smile, "Qingze told me to respect other people's privacy more and not to speculate too much or cross the line."

"So when I heard what Liu Mubai said, I deliberately didn't think too deeply about it, so as not to infringe on his privacy."

After they finished speaking, they were both stunned for a moment, and then they smiled at each other as if with tacit understanding.

....................

When I saw Liu Mubai again, there was a boy standing next to him. There was no doubt that he was his boyfriend.

The boy was tall and thin, with a figure as straight as a pine tree, giving people a feeling of freshness and elegance.

He is very handsome, but not in the sharp, aggressive way. Instead, he is as gentle and elegant as the spring breeze, making people feel close to him at first sight.

The boy's eyes were full of tenderness and pampering. His gaze was like a warm lake. When he looked at Liu Mubai, it seemed to be able to melt everything in the world.

There was a smile on Liu Mubai's face, and that smile was bright and moving.

They stood together, so harmoniously, as if they were a match made in heaven.

....Is this the legendary “husband-husband look”?

When Chu Lingxiao saw them, this thought suddenly popped into his mind.

Liu Mubai's boyfriend is Lin Jingchuan, a university teacher.

He doesn't usually live here with Liu Mubai, he just comes here occasionally. After all, this place is relatively far from where he works.

Liu Mubai and Lin Jingchuan not only look very similar, they both have a gentle temperament, and they speak in a soft and gentle voice, like a gurgling stream, gently flowing past the ears.

The same is true of their personalities, introverted and delicate.

Liu Mubai introduced Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao to Lin Jingchuan, but Lin Jingchuan was obviously not a very outgoing person.

He just smiled and nodded politely, but there was a hint of shyness in his eyes. His smile was shallow, but it carried a unique charm.

Liu Mubai seemed to sense Lin Jingchuan's discomfort and gently held his hand, giving him silent comfort.

Lin Jingchuan felt Liu Mubai's warmth, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing an even brighter smile.

The four of them stood there, and the atmosphere was somewhat subtle.

Chu Lingxiao was keenly aware of this and tried to break the awkwardness.

He then asked, "Teacher Lin, I heard from Mu Bai that you are a university teacher. What subject do you teach?"

Lin Jingchuan was slightly stunned, as if he did not expect Chu Lingxiao to communicate with him so quickly.

Then he replied softly, "I teach ancient literature." His voice was like the sound of a melodious piano, low and pleasant.

Chu Lingxiao smiled and said, "Ancient literature is very fascinating. Teacher Lin must be very knowledgeable."

Lin Jingchuan smiled modestly and said, "I just know a little bit."

Liu Mubai watched their interaction and a gratified smile appeared on his face.

He knew that Lin Jingchuan was not very good at socializing and always seemed shy and reserved, but he still hoped that Lin Jingchuan could make more friends.

He and Lin Jingchuan were college classmates and even shared the same dormitory.

When Lin Jingchuan was in college, he didn't like to communicate with others. He always got up very early every day and went to the library to study. After coming back from studying, he would rest and rarely communicate with others.

It was during Liu Mubai's sophomore year that she and Lin Jingchuan gradually became familiar with each other and became friends because of some things.

As time went by, their feelings gradually warmed up and eventually developed into a romantic relationship.

.....................

As time passed slowly and days went by, they gradually became familiar with each other. Lin Jingchuan also gradually let go of himself and began to show more of his true side in front of his friends.

Actually, Lin Jingchuan is a very interesting person.

On weekdays, although he speaks little, he always listens to everyone's conversation silently, like a quiet bystander.

However, once he started talking about something he liked, he would become talkative like a ignited flame.

He would share his insights and feelings with passionate words.

Except that he would occasionally treat me like a student when asking questions due to professional habit, there were no problems in other aspects. There was even a kind of inexplicable "contrasting cuteness".

For example, when everyone is chatting casually, if someone asks a question, Lin Jingchuan may instantly switch to teacher mode and answer the question seriously.

His serious expression and professional attitude formed a sharp contrast with his usual self, which made people laugh.

Once, everyone gathered together to discuss a popular movie.

Lin Jingchuan just listened quietly at first, his eyes focused and calm, as if he was feeling everyone's words with his heart.

But when the topic turned to the literary elements in the film, his eyes lit up instantly, his face was filled with excitement, and he couldn't wait to share his insights.

He will carefully talk about the poetic allusions cleverly used in the film and the cultural connotations behind them.

His words were like flowing streams, clear and moving, taking everyone into that poetic world.

Sometimes he quoted an ancient poem, sometimes he analyzed the meaning of an allusion, allowing everyone to have a deeper understanding and appreciation of the movie.

Liu Mubai looked at his excited expression, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, his eyes full of love and appreciation.

Chu Lingxiao and Gu Qingze were also listening quietly. They were infected by Lin Jingchuan's enthusiasm and immersed in the narration full of literary charm.

...................

After getting to know each other, Chu Lingxiao and Lin Jingchuan became closer.

In daily communication, Chu Lingxiao would occasionally go to Lin Jingchuan for advice, asking for those romantic tips in love or life.

Once, during a conversation, Chu Lingxiao learned that Lin Jingchuan would bring a bouquet of roses every time he came to see Liu Mubai.

Chu Lingxiao said to Lin Jingchuan with some sarcasm: "I didn't realize you were so romantic."

Hearing this, Lin Jingchuan seemed to be lost in memories. His eyes softened, and his thoughts seemed to have drifted back to a certain moment in the past.

Then he shook his head and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

In fact, Lin Jingchuan had no idea about romance before.

He has always focused on his studies and work, and does not have much understanding of the delicate emotions and romantic actions in love.

However, one Valentine's Day, he saw Liu Mubai looking at the flowers in someone else's hands with a look of loss in his eyes.

At that moment, his heart seemed to be pierced by something, and he realized that he might not have done enough as a lover.

From then on, he made up his mind to learn little by little and create those romantic moments for Liu Mubai.

He knows that he still has a lot to learn and grow on the road of love, but he is willing to work hard.

He just felt that if others had something, Liu Mubai also had to have it.

He didn't want Liu Mubai to feel any loss or regret in love.

When Chu Lingxiao heard Lin Jingchuan's words, he felt touched and thought about the relationship between himself and Gu Qingze.

................

Once, Chu Lingxiao and Gu Qingze went to Liu Mubai's house as guests. They sat in the living room. Somehow, the topic suddenly turned to the issue of communication. Liu Mubai asked them curiously, "Do you ever quarrel?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao looked at each other, and then they couldn't help but chuckle.

When two people get along, conflicts are inevitable. It would be too fake to say that they never quarrel.

In life, everyone has their own ideas and opinions, and disagreements are inevitable.

They are no exception. In the process of getting along with each other, they will also have disputes over trivial matters.

However, they rarely quarreled and could usually make up within five minutes.

Every time Chu Lingxiao faced Qingze's face, he would lose his temper for no apparent reason.

What's more, Qingze can act like a spoiled child. When Qingze acts like a spoiled child, his voice is so soft that people can't resist it at all.

Chu Lingxiao's heart softened instantly, and all his anger disappeared without a trace.

Besides, they are not without mouths. After they calm down, they can communicate well and come up with a win-win solution.

After a quarrel, they will calm down and sit together to communicate properly.

Through communication, they are able to understand each other better and find solutions to problems.

When two people are together, they must accommodate each other and be more tolerant.
