are you a cat

- These candies, you should leave them to Yuning.

- Don't use the way you coaxed Yu Ning to me!

- I want someone to love me.

- He doesn't like the nickname and won't let us call him that.

- do you want to know what it is called

- It's called Ningning.

- Yuning's Ning.

Even though he had vaguely guessed, Bai Jingping's affirmative reply still hurt Xu Yuxing's eyes.

This answer was like an invisible iron chain, tightly bound Xu Yuxing's heart, and every breath was a piercing pain.

The name Yu Ning represents the simplest expectations and blessings from his parents. He doesn't need to achieve much and earn a lot of money. He just hopes that he can grow up safely and live a stable life.

And this expectation and blessing was actually deprived from Ye Chen?

When Ye Chen was still at Yu Ning's age, Yu Xin and Ye Zeyang would also chase after him, calling Ning Ning loudly.

Ning Ning ran slowly.

Ning Ning flew high.

Mother Ning Ning hugged.

Ningning...

Because of the formation of a new family, Yu Xin got out of the shadow of her failed marriage with Ye Zeyang, leaving Ye Chen where she was.

He changed from a favored person to a marginalized person to a bystander, listening to Yu Xin pouring out his love for the other youngest son, calling Ning Ning softly.

But not calling him.

For Yechen, parents' quarrels, divorce, and reorganization of their own families are all more painful than being deprived of this name.

Even if it's just a nickname.

So what kind of mood did he go to the pet store to bring back a cat, and what kind of mood did he give the cat such a name, Xu Yuxing didn't dare to think about it at all.

He is so distressed.

By the time Xu Yuxing reacted, he had already called Yechen.

Xu Yuxing leaned on the back of his chair and looked up at the ceiling, with the busy tone that no one answered the phone for a long time in his ear.

I didn't pick him up once and called him a second time.

At this moment, he was too young to lead him down a wrong path, and any unavoidable ethical relationship between them was out of his consideration.

Xu Yuxing just wanted to tell Yechen that he was not unloved.

It's just that Ye Chen didn't answer the phone.

"Seeing you staring at your phone for so long, why didn't you answer it?"

In the exhibition hall, Yechen and Wenxu stood side by side in front of an oil painting, which showed a maid standing by a table, pouring milk into a bowl.

Seeing Yechen staring at the name repeatedly jumping on the phone screen for a long time, and neither answering nor hanging up each time, he couldn't help asking: "Xu Yuxing, who is it?"

Yechen put the phone back in his pocket, and didn't answer Wen Wen's question. He finished reading "The Milkmaid" in front of him, and walked to the side.

Seeing that he obviously didn't want to answer, Wen Xu stopped asking.

The two had already walked around the exhibition hall, and Wen Xu followed beside him: "Where should we go next?"

Yechen said lightly, "I'm going back to do my homework."

"Isn't it?" Wen Xu couldn't believe it, "Aren't you tired of drawing every day?"

"It's okay." Ye Chen said, his thoughts were disturbed by Xu Yuxing's phone call, his heart was in a mess, and he needed to hold a paintbrush to calm himself down.

If there were no these two missed calls, he would actually not mind continuing to hang out with Wen Nu.

Wen Xu compromised: "Okay, anyway, I have nothing to do by myself, so I'll go back with you."

Ye Chen glanced at him inexplicably, he was a little confused about Wen Xu.

The latter blinked and went to the side of the road to hail a taxi: "Let's go!"

The two returned to the classroom, and there were other students in the classroom.

Seeing Wen Xu was a little strange, Wen Xu hooked Ye Chen's shoulder and greeted them: "I will accompany Xiao Chen to do homework."

Yechen didn't get to know him that well yet, and he somewhat rejected his physical contact, so he lifted his arms and found a seat to sit down.

The classmate looked at the two of them and asked curiously, "When did you two become so familiar?"

Yechen often gets high marks in homework and ranks relatively high in the studio, but because he usually walks alone and doesn't talk to everyone very much, he left the impression of being cold and difficult to get along with the students.

Contrary to him, Wen Wen and everyone in the studio can talk.

It's quite surprising that two such extreme people suddenly meet.

Wen Xu smiled: "I'm not familiar yet, didn't you see him push me away?"

The classmate whispered: "Is he difficult to get along with?"

Wen Xu shook her index finger: "Not really."

The classmate looked at Yechen who was wearing earphones in doubt, not quite believing it.

Wen Xu said: "He is easy to talk to, you can try."

The classmate said: "Forget it..."

Wen Xu shrugged, and moved the easel over to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen connected the earphones and slid his finger on the player to select a song.

"What songs do you listen to when you are painting?" Wen Xu leaned over.

Yechen said, "I'll share it with you."

"It doesn't need to be so troublesome," Wen Xu said, taking off one of his earphones, "Do you mind if I listen to it together?"

He was a little surprised by the extremely rhythmic music in his ears: "I didn't expect you to like listening to rock."

The sketch pen wiped the drawing paper, and Yechen nodded, neither explaining nor refuting: "Yeah."

Wen Xu nodded slightly following the music, and seeing that Yechen was painting seriously, he didn't bother him anymore, and also concentrated on painting his own.

After listening to two or three songs in a row, Wen Xu suddenly said, "Are you listening to the same band? I seem to have heard the sound of the violin."

Yechen was very focused when he was painting, and he was slower to accept information from the outside world. It took him a while before he said "um".

Wen Xu was puzzled: "Can the violin also play rock?"

As he said that, he remembered: "I also saw a violinist on Weibo before. He seems to be playing rock and roll. I remember that violinist was quite handsome."

Ye Chen stopped writing, and Wen Xu asked him, "Which band are you listening to?"

"Toxic." Ye Chen said.

This band is too niche, Wen Xin has never heard of it, and he is not a rock fan, all he knows are some popular bands that are well-known by the public.

"Normal," Ye Chen said, "They don't have much fame either."

That is to say, the degree of having some fans in the circle.

"I don't usually listen to rock and roll, why don't you recommend some bands for me to listen to?" Wen Xu said.

Yechen also listened to rock music after that music festival, but he just listened casually and had no interest: "I only know this band."

"Toxic, right?" Wen Xu asked.

Yechen changed a piece of drawing paper and continued to complete the sketching homework. His hands kept moving, and the outline of a character was quickly outlined on the drawing paper.

Hearing Wen Xu's words, he nodded.

Wen Xu: "I remember."

Ye Chen looked sideways slightly, Wen Xu had already started searching on his mobile phone: "Which musician in this band do you like the most?"

Yechen paused for a moment, only to realize that the sketch he drew was Xu Yuxing who played the violin in his memory.

He looked at the painting in front of him, and heard Wen Xu's rising tone because he didn't get a reply: "Huh?"

After a moment of silence, Ye Chen calmly said under warm and puzzled eyes: "Let's play the violin."

Wen Nu's eyes lit up: "It's a coincidence, I can also play the violin."

Ye Chen didn't look forward to it either: "Oh."

Wen Xu: "..."

"I'll tell him if I have a chance." Wen Xu, as his name suggests, is a sunny and warm acquaintance, and such things as being cold will hardly happen to him.

While talking, he picked up his phone and glanced at it, and said to Yechen, "I'll go out for a while."

Once I went out, I went for a long time.

It wasn't until Yechen finished his coloring homework and was about to wash his brushes that he ran into him in the corridor.

There is a long row of washbasins outside the school bathroom, where everyone usually washes their pens and draws water.

To go to the bathroom, this corridor is a must.

At first, Ye Chen only saw Wen Xu standing in the corridor with a boy from the next class, and didn't pay much attention to it. The closer he got to hearing them talking, the more he felt something was wrong.

The boy who warmed the other party blushed, and stuttered a little because he was nervous.

He is confessing.

This is a bit embarrassing.

It's not that Ye Chen stays here, nor does it go beyond the two of them.

He heard Wen Xu rejecting the other party: "I'm sorry, I have someone I like."

Boy: "Didn't you... last time?"

"It really didn't exist at that time," Wen Xu scratched his head, "Isn't it only two days before I fell in love with it?"

The other party was a little unwilling to give up: "Is it from the school?"

Wen Xu frankly: "Yes."

The boy asked, "Who?"

He said and looked behind Wen Xu.

Wen Xu turned her head and grinned when she saw the figure walking with her back turned to them.

He pointed at Yechen: "That's him."

Ye Chen, who planned to go back originally because he didn't want to pry into other people's privacy, paused.

Wen Xu came over with a smile: "I didn't intend to confess my love so soon, but I really like you, Xiao Chen, do you want to try it with me?"

Yechen was silent for a few seconds, frowning tightly: "Are you sick?"
