Zhang Ze returned to the office and couldn't wait to open the gift, only to see his face appearing on the drawing paper.While scrutinizing it carefully, he stroked it cautiously, for fear of damaging the portrait somewhere.

After reading it, he treasured the painting and put it in the cabinet again, and took it home when he had time.People come and go in the office, if someone breaks it for him, he will feel very distressed.

After finishing the painting, he turned around and left the factory and ran to Teacher Ye's house, thinking of giving him a surprise.

Walking through the familiar old alley, Zhang Ze hummed a little tune briskly and soon arrived at Teacher Ye's door. He was about to raise his hand to knock on the door when he heard a roar from inside.

"What on earth do you want to do?" It seemed to be Teacher Ye's voice.

Zhang Ze had never heard such an emotional speech from Teacher Ye, as if he wanted to vent all the anger that had accumulated in his chest for many years.There was not only shocking anger in his tone, but also a hint of grievance and helplessness.

Zhang Ze's eyebrows were furrowed together in an instant, he slammed on the wooden door like crazy, and shouted Teacher Ye's name loudly.The thin wooden door was slapped and cracked by him, and it couldn't even withstand such a strong force, it began to make a slight cracking sound, and it looked crumbling.

"Ms. Ye, open the door quickly." He shouted loudly.There was only one thought in his mind, that something happened to Teacher Ye, and he had to go in now.

He yelled several times in succession, but he didn't see Teacher Ye come out to open the door.Zhang Ze was so anxious that he couldn't care about anything else.He took a step back and was about to kick the door to force his way in when the door creaked open.

Seeing Teacher Ye standing in the door with reddish eyes, Zhang Ze hurried in and hugged him into his arms, caressing his back in distress, and softly comforted him.When Teacher Ye's mood stabilized a little, Zhang Ze noticed that there was still one person standing in the yard, and that was Dong Siwen.

"What are you doing here? Please get out immediately." Zhang Ze protected Mr. Ye by his side, held his hand tightly, pointed at Dong Siwen's cold eyes, and issued an order to evict the guest without hesitation.

Dong Siwen was unmoved, clenched his hands tightly into a fist, and his sinister eyes lingered on their tightly intertwined hands and Zhang Ze's face.

"Why do you let me go." Dong Siwen choked back in a bad tone.

Although he had already guessed some of the relationship between the two in his heart, he was still unwilling to admit and face it.Stubbornly standing where he was, his eyes turned to Ye Nianbin expectantly, hoping to hear words of denial from his mouth.But he was ruthlessly ignored, and even avoided him in disgust, as if it was an extremely disgusting thing to look at him.

Dong Siwen closed his eyes with some injuries, his knuckles were slightly white due to the force, and his nails deeply imprinted a few rounds of crescents on his palm.

"Because I'm Teacher Ye's boyfriend, he doesn't welcome you here." Zhang Ze's eyes were cold, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.When he spoke, the veins on his temples throbbed twice, and his tone was full of forbearance and restraint.If Dong Siwen didn't leave again, he couldn't guarantee that he would make any drastic moves.

Dong Siwen snorted coldly, putting his hands in his pockets without fear of him at all.

"It doesn't matter if you are his boyfriend, how long have you two been together, do you know how long I have been with Nian Bin, kid." Seeing Zhang Ze's immature face, he didn't take his threat seriously at all, arrogant provocatively said. "Three years, such a long time is not so easily replaced by others. Our best green years are spent in each other's company."

"So what, didn't you break up in the end?" Zhang Ze was not provoked by his words at all, he was just an ex-boyfriend, and he was arrogant in front of him.However, three years has passed, and Mr. Ye's future decades will still be his.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Ze would say that, Dong Siwen choked, not knowing how to answer.

"That's why we separated... that's forced by external reasons." He looked around and spoke incoherently.

If it wasn't for that accident, he and Nian Bin wouldn't have parted ways at all, and he wouldn't have done those things, after all, the two of them loved each other so much back then.Dong Siwen firmly believes that he is not wrong, it is their fault, and it is the fault of this era.

Besides, the current self is no longer the timid and fearful brat he used to be. He has already settled everything. He spent so long looking for news about him, even quitting his job to follow him. Why can't Nian Bin forgive him? It's good to be back with him.

Zhang Ze sneered mercilessly. Although he didn't know the reason why the two separated, he was not a fool.From Teacher Ye's attitude, it can be seen that things are not as he said, he must have hurt Teacher Ye severely.But he blamed all the reasons on the outside, and he didn't take any responsibility at all.

He was about to open his mouth to refute him, to expose his hypocritical mask, when he heard Mr. Ye scold loudly in an urgent and angry tone.

"Enough, how long do you want to quibble."

Had it not been for him, nothing would have happened to his father.His mother would not die in depression, and finally left him alone to guard the small courtyard.

"Nian, Nian Bin, listen to me to explain to you. At that time, it was really just forced by the situation." He really didn't say those words on purpose. He was expelled from school and discriminated against by classmates and teachers.

No, he absolutely can't do that.

After all, he is different from Ye Nianbin. Ye Nianbin's family conditions are good, and his father is a school teacher. Even if something serious happens, his father will definitely help him.Even if he was expelled, he might be able to change schools and start over immediately with the help of his father.

As for myself, I was born in a rural area, and it is really not easy to be admitted to a university in Kyoto. Even the travel expenses to go to school are borrowed by his mother's family. He really cannot be expelled. This is his only chance to stand up.The whole family counted on him. If he didn't go to school because of this, how could he go home and explain to his parents and the villagers.

Why can't Nian Bin understand him?

Besides, no one could have predicted the series of events that would happen later.

He thought it was all right, and thought that his father would be punished at most, but he didn't expect it to become such a big mess.His father was accidentally crushed to death, and now Dong Siwen felt chills in his back when he thought of that scene.Terrible, those people are like crazy.

Ye Nianbin's eyes were full of tears, and the corners of his mouth curled up, feeling both ridiculous and saddened that Dong Siwen hadn't realized his mistake until now.

He has always only known to blame others, then and now.

Ye Nianbin took a big step back in disgust to avoid Dong Siwen's hand that was trying to reach out to him, and now he only felt disgusted by any touch of this person.

Because of Dong Siwen's actions, he even began to hate his past self, and hated why he fell in love with him blindly in the first place.If he could go back to the past, he would definitely not be with him.

"Dong Siwen, if you still want to save face, you should leave quickly." Ye Nianbin's eyes were empty, and he had no strength to continue entanglement with him.

Things have passed for so long, and he is ready to let go gradually, unwilling to live in painful memories anymore.But why is Dong Siwen always haunted, always reminding him of the past that he doesn't want to look back.

"Nianbin." Dong Siwen didn't want to believe that Ye Nianbin would be so ruthless to him, the corners of his eyes were slightly red, and he stubbornly wanted to grab Ye Nianbin's wrist, but Zhang Ze separated him with his body, warning him with cold eyes.

He withdrew his hand in discomfort, but did not leave immediately, but stared at him with complicated eyes.

After a while, his eyes turned to Zhang Ze, and he said harshly: "Then you think that things like that won't happen when you're with him, it's not my fault at all, it's the fault of this era."

Zhang Ze frowned after hearing this, and hurriedly looked at Teacher Ye and shook his head, telling him with firm eyes that he would never do that.Ye Nianbin didn't speak, but closed his eyes wearily.Zhang Ze's eyes darkened, he pursed his lips, grabbed Dong Siwen and threw him out the door.Then he slammed the door shut, and stuck him to Mr. Ye and stared at him from outside the door.

"Ms. Ye." After driving Dong Siwen away, Zhang Ze yelled at Mr. Ye.Seeing that he ignored him, he sighed insignificantly, stretched out his hand and pinched Teacher Ye's plump fingertips, and said aggrievedly: "Mr. Ye, you don't believe me."

Ye Nianbin looked back at him quietly for a while, then shook his head.

"No, I just..." He suddenly choked up when he said this, took a few deep breaths before recovering, and continued: "I just thought of something bad."

Zhang Ze looked at his side face, grasped his hand distressedly, and said tentatively: "Can you tell me your story, it might be better to tell me."

Ye Nianbin didn't speak, but silently took his hand and brought him to the portrait in the main room.

It was the painting of the woman's back that Zhang Ze noticed the first time he came.

"This is my mother." Ye Nianbin said.Speaking of which, a smile finally appeared on his face. "She is an art student. She met and fell in love with my father in college, and married him right after graduation. My father has been teaching in college after graduation, and I was born within two years. They have always been very affectionate. So, we I also want to have such a sincere love like them."

Ye Nianbin stopped at this point, as if lost in memory.Zhang Ze didn't urge him, just waited quietly on the side.After a while, he continued.

"Dong Siwen was my father's student at that time, and he was excellent in his studies. My father liked him very much. But his family conditions were not good, and sometimes he couldn't even afford the food in the cafeteria. So my father often took him to discuss topics. I came to my house for dinner, and we got to know each other once we came and went. I don’t know if it’s because of my dad, he took special care of me at school, and then I gradually fell in love with him.

At first I also doubted myself, but then I mustered up the courage to confess my love to him.Unexpectedly, he agreed, and then we came together naturally.Like all the young couples on campus, we went to tryst in the woods, walked under the stars, and hugged each other.I didn't expect to be bumped into by someone accidentally. The news that we were together spread like wildfire throughout the school the next day, and all the good things came to an abrupt end at this time. "

Ye Nianbin didn't want to recall the scene at all. The whole world changed overnight.Classmates who were once close friends have become strangers.No, it's more terrifying than this, as if he is a huge contagious germ, and everyone avoids him.He didn't understand that he just fell in love with a person of the same gender as himself, so why did everyone treat him like this.

Every day at school, he was in a daze like a walking dead. He thought that this matter would be forgotten by everyone after a while, and life would be easier. He didn't expect a report letter posted on the bulletin board to completely destroy him.

Said he was gay and perverted, and asked him to drop out of school.

Then he and Dong Siwen were called to the principal's office by the teacher with a strange look, and his father was also there.After knowing that incident, his face was full of vicissitudes, as if he had aged 10 years.

And he lowered his head, not daring to look at him at all.

For the sake of his father, the headmaster originally wanted them to suspend school first, and wait for the matter to pass.But then the students found out about it somehow, and protested at the school, and even a group of extreme people surrounded his door, holding up a flag and asking his father to leave the school, saying that he was protecting his children and was not worthy of teaching at school.

They picked up stones, boasting of justice, and threw them at windows and doors.

Later when Dong Siwen came, he thought he was here to save himself, but he didn't expect him to stand with those people.Crying that he was being persecuted, accusing him of threatening him with his father's identity, if he was not with him, he would not be able to graduate.

He only remembered that he was in a daze at the time, didn't know how to explain it, and just stared blankly at the familiar man in front of him, but now he was scared by the strangeness, as if he had never really known him.

That person pulled him yesterday and told him that everything would pass and he would always be by his side.Standing opposite him today, talking about fabricated facts.

The father was very angry after hearing this, and rushed out desperately to confront Dong Siwen.In the end, a brick was thrown by someone and hit the head.When I ran out, I saw him lying motionless in a pool of blood, his eyes wide open, full of resentment and unwillingness.

The incident happened suddenly, he didn't see who that person was at all, and he didn't have time to pursue it. He just wanted to send his father to the hospital as soon as possible, he couldn't lose him.

He wanted Dong Siwen to help him, but when he saw the back of him fleeing with the group of people, he didn't even look back at him.

In the end, the father failed to save him.

Since my father left, my mother has become in a trance.Although she never said anything to blame him, since that incident, she seldom stepped out of her room and did not want to see him.

He was expelled from the school, but Dong Siwen stayed.
