At night, the two of them slept in each other's arms, and neither of them had the intention of overstepping the boundaries. Only before going to bed, at Tao Zhi's coquettish request, did Xu Yanze give Tao Zhi a goodnight kiss on the forehead.

Xu Yanze was very tired and fell asleep soon. Tao Zhi opened his eyes in the darkness and saw Xu Yanze's furrowed brows through the moonlight.

Tao Zhi carefully lifted up the sleeve of Xu Yanze's right hand. Even though he couldn't see clearly, he could still feel the jagged scars on Xu Yanze's wrist through the rubbing of his fingertips.

Tao Zhi covered his mouth with his hand, blocking the sob that was about to burst out from between his lips and teeth.

Tao Zhi lifted the quilt and tiptoed to the bathroom and closed the door. Then he squatted down and cried until his whole body was shaking, but he didn't dare to let out any sound.

I am the one who has the script, so how could I not know the character setting of Xu Yanze?

In the original plot, Xu Yanze would be sent to the United States because of the love letter incident. His character introduction is the gentle second male lead, and his attribute is "depression".

He eventually suffered from depression as in the original text.

But I couldn't help him with anything.

When Tao Zhi calmed down and came out, he found Xu Yanze sitting on the bed.

"Did I wake you up by going to the bathroom?" Tao Zhi asked.

"I've always had a light sleep." Xu Yanze replied.

Tao Zhi shivered, pulled back the quilt and crawled inside, pulled Xu Yanze down and then leaned into Xu Yanze's arms to keep warm.

"I'm freezing, and it feels like Xiaodao has pulled my butt." Tao Zhi complained.

Xu Yanze reached out and hugged Tao Zhi tighter, touching the back of Tao Zhi's head.

"Tao Zhi." Xu Yanze shouted.

"Hmm?" Tao Zhi looked up at Xu Yanze's thin jawline, with stars in his eyes.

"I received an invitation letter some time ago from a teacher whom I respect very much, inviting me to teach."

"I'm very hesitant whether to agree." Xu Yanze said.

"Agree." Tao Zhi replied without thinking.

That’s Mr. Gu, the teacher who taught the two male protagonists. How can we miss such a learning opportunity!

Xu Yanze was silent for a few breaths.

"Learning takes a lot of time, so it will take me many years before I can go back and be with you." Xu Yanze said.

"Didn't you say you wanted to grow up to be someone who could protect me? This is my chance."

"Xu Yanze, I will wait for you, no matter how long it takes, I will wait for you." Tao Zhi said.

Xu Yanze accepted Mr. Gu's invitation and was taken to a closed learning place soon after.

Before leaving, Xu Yanze and Tao Zhi continued to talk on the phone for three hours, during which Tao Zhi expressed his reluctance with red eyes and sniffling.

They were not allowed to contact the outside world during the early stages of closed training, so the two had no contact for the next year.

During this period of time, Tao Zhi focused on shaping his own image and became a celebrity. Tao Zhi even hired someone to set up a magazine to follow up on his romantic anecdotes, and the sales were unexpectedly good.

Until the lockdown was lifted, Xu Yanze couldn't wait to contact Tao Zhi and said that he was allowed to return to China for a week.

Tao Zhi almost panicked and stopped Xu Yanze's plan to return to China, and then quickly bought a ticket to the United States to meet Xu Yanze.

Although they hadn't been in touch for more than a year and were inevitably a little unfamiliar, Tao Zhi still naturally threw himself into Xu Yanze's arms and rubbed his head against Xu Yanze's chin.

It was as if they had separated only yesterday.

Tao Zhi also brought a gift for Xu Yanze, a golden retriever, which Tao Zhi named "Little Naughty".

Tao Zhi didn't tell Xu Yanze that this was a comfort dog.

At the age of 25, Xu Yanze stubbornly asked to return to China for development. Mr. Gu tried to persuade him with kind words, but finally waved his hand and let Xu Yanze leave.

Xu Yanze originally wanted to give Tao Zhi a surprise, but he waited at the door of Tao Zhi's villa for a whole day. This day was enough for Xu Yanze to find out through the Internet that his partner Tao Zhi was so "famous".

It was not until the drunk Tao Zhi staggered out of the car at night that Xu Yanze cleared his numb brows.

Tao Zhi saw a person standing at the door, holding a half-drunk glass of wine, and squinted his eyes to look over. It was too dark at night to see clearly, so Tao Zhi was too lazy to look.

"Who are you? Why are you standing at my door? Go ask next door if you want to beg for food. I don't have any here." Tao Zhi said drunkenly.

At this time, Tao Zhi's collar was wide open, his face was covered with lipstick marks, and he had a big, ostentatious gold chain around his neck. His hair was not the youthful and well-behaved hairstyle that Xu Yanze was familiar with, but a standard, dandy hairstyle.

Tao Zhi was staggering towards the door as he spoke, when suddenly someone grabbed his wrist. Tao Zhi was so embarrassed that he was about to turn his head away in anger.

"Tao Zhi, I'm Xu Yanze." Xu Yanze said gently.

Tao Zhi sobered up instantly, the bottle of wine fell from his hand and broke into pieces. Tao Zhi stood there for a long time, unable to speak.

"Xu...Xu Yanze, please listen to my explanation."

Tao Zhi's voice trembled, and the corners of his eyes turned red and wet.

Xu Yanze held the trembling Tao Zhi in his arms, his eyes filled with sadness behind his gold-rimmed glasses.

"Long time no see, Tao Zhi." Xu Yanze said.

Tao Zhi took a hot bath and sobered up completely.

The exaggerated hairstyle was washed away, and Tao Zhi's longer hair drooped down with water droplets dripping from the ends.

Tao Zhi didn't even bother to blow dry his hair and went to knock on Xu Yanze's door. He pushed the door open without waiting for Xu Yanze's response, then stood at the door without saying a word, just looking at Xu Yanze aggrievedly.

Xu Yanze was silent for a long time, pulled Tao Zhi over to sit down, then picked up the hair dryer prepared by the housekeeper to blow Tao Zhi's hair.

Tao Zhi lowered his head and let Xu Yanze's slender fingers play with his hair. No one spoke during the whole process.

Xu Yanze put down the hair dryer. Without the noise of the hair dryer, Tao Zhi's sobbing was very obvious.

Xu Yanze felt an unbearable dryness in his throat and his eyes were red. He reached out and hugged Tao Zhi, whose shoulders were trembling, from behind.

"I do not blame you."

"I made you wait too long."

"Don't do those things anymore, okay?"

"I won't leave this time. I can always stay with you and never leave you again." Xu Yanze said.

Tao Zhi agreed.

They were together for three years like a normal couple.

Xu Yanze is busy with his work, but as long as Tao Zhi acts like a spoiled brat, Xu Yanze will immediately put everything aside to coax Tao Zhi.

Naturally, the affair between the two could not be hidden from Taoci. After a brief outrage, Taoci chose to compromise and was even relieved.

My son has settled down and at least stopped playing around. Although he is a boy, he is still an excellent boy after all.
