Stand by

The man holding the wine thought he was interested and was not in a hurry, so he flirted with him, but his body got closer and closer, and his hand slowly stretched down.

Pei Lu's eyebrows suddenly turned cold, and he strode over, pinched the man's shoulders with all his strength, pulled him away, completely blocked Jiang Xing, and warned the other party in a low voice: "He has a master."

The man came out purely for fun, and when he saw a fresh and juicy dessert, he went up to tease it. Since he had the owner, he didn't force it, shrugged and left to look for the next prey.

Jiang Xing poked his head out from behind Pei Lu just in time to see the man's back. He didn't notice the gloom and danger on Pei Lu's face, and opened his eyes wide open to share with him the adventure just now: "Why did you leave? Tell him What?"

Pei Lu looked at him incredulously.

Jiang Xing said to himself: "This person chatted with me as soon as he came up, and he didn't make it clear after talking for a long time."

He also judged that the man's Mandarin didn't seem very good, and some sentences were not very fluent.

Then he complained that people nicknamed him without permission: "Do I look like a grape?"

The veins on Pei Lu's forehead burst into anger, his sharp eyes were thick and heavy, and his tone was cold: "Do you know what he wants to do?"

Jiang Xing was at a loss: "What does he want to do?"

"He wants to do it..." Pei Lu came back to his senses and controlled his emotions in time. Jiang Xing couldn't be offended like this. He turned his eyes away, "You don't need to understand."

But Jiang Xing actually understood. He opened his mouth wide, was dumb, and subconsciously pointed at the back: "He is..."

"He is," Pei Luning stared at him. Since Jiang Xing knew more than he thought, he said directly, "Why don't you have any precautions in this kind of place?"

Jiang Xing was stunned and said "Oh" in embarrassment.

It happened that there was another same-sex couple kissing passionately at the bar, Jiang Xing gasped, Pei Lu covered his eyes with his hand, and turned the person to him, with his back to them.

Jiang Xing's breathing was a little short, and he didn't know where to look at Pei Lu's handsome face.

Pei Lu stared at him seriously, feeling a little distracted, reached out and took a glass of golden Du Lisa, and took a few sips with complicated emotions. After a long time, he asked in a hoarse voice: "Do you mind?"

"what?"

Pei Lu directly said: "Homosexuality"

The two finally left, Jiang Xing breathed a sigh of relief, secretly poured two cubes of ice into his quilt, trying to dilute the concentration of alcohol, and replied calmly: "I don't mind."

Pei Lu looked over seriously with a faint smell of alcohol, his eyebrows and eyes looked more handsome and sharp under the dim light, with the oppression of exploration and examination, like a deep dark river, calmly heading towards an unknown direction at night Going forward, by the way, also carrying some things belonging to Jiang Xing.

In the air mixed with the humid sea breeze, it seemed as if a small cluster of fires suddenly ignited.

Pei Lu didn't believe it, and asked quietly: "Really?"

"What's the point?" Jiang Xing was still playing with his ice cubes, so he nodded because he didn't understand. When he saw Pei Lu's frown, he seemed to think of the crux of the problem, and returned to question with a serious expression: "Pei Lu, what are you doing?" Could it be..."

Pei Lu's face froze, and he instantly felt the blood in his body burning mixed with alcohol. He stared at Jiang Xing's beautifully shaped lips, wondering what kind of answer he was about to spit out.

The expression on Jiang Xing's face became more and more unbelievable, and filled with righteous indignation.

Pei Lu stared closely at his eyes, raising his heart higher and higher.

"Aren't you homophobic?!"

"...?"

Jiang Xing saw that his complexion was complicated, and he didn't say a word. He became more certain of his guess, and became serious. He taught, "Your postdoctoral fellow who came back from studying abroad is still homophobic? That's not good."

He is very serious: "Gender orientation is a personal choice, and homosexuality should be respected as much as heterosexuality."

"Didn't expect you to be so... pedantic on this subject."

"You like girls, and others like boys. It's the same. You should be more open-minded. We are engaged in scientific research, and we must be tolerant and tolerant."

The people who are being educated are confused and don't know what to say for a while.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Jiang Xing thought it was an expression of passive resistance that didn't agree with his point of view, and asked seriously, "Pei Lu, do you think I'm wrong?"

Pei Lu didn't know what to say.

Jiang Xing gave a serious look: "I suggest you learn more about gay culture, don't hold prejudice against them, love regardless of gender, and respect other people's choices."

Pei Lu stared at him darkly, Jiang Xing felt that he was justified, and raised his chin to confront him fearlessly.

It's very similar to the kind of competitiveness he was aroused when he disagreed with others in professional classes.

Pei Lu: "..." I don't know whether to be happy for his slowness and disappointment or for his tolerance and understanding, so I look away slightly.

Seeing his uneducated face, Jiang Xing felt that he was stubborn, so he simply jumped off the high chair, went directly in front of him, and lobbied face to face: "Didn't you study abroad for many years? What about young intellectuals, why don’t you understand what my parents understand?”

Pei Lu paused holding the cup, raised his eyebrows inexplicably, and asked in surprise, "Your parents know this?"

Speaking of this, Jiang Xing finally felt a little proud: "Understood, one of my dad's students came out and was kicked out by his family, and my dad helped him. He is now the Chief Justice of the Maritime Court. He left our family, and now he only needs to go back to China, and he will come to my house to see my father if he doesn’t come back to his own house.”

Pei Lu seemed to be in a magical world, and said "oh".

Jiang Xing felt that he was being perfunctory: "Is it over for you?"

Pei Lu coughed lightly, and said in a deep voice, "Well... I shouldn't discriminate against homosexuals, I will reflect on myself."

Jiang Xing was finally willing to let him go, and his attention was quickly attracted by the depth charge of the buttery grape mojito that the bartender had just fried. The men and women who were originally crowded on the dance floor flocked to watch the bartending show.

Jiang Xing was very interested: "Pei Lu, does this look like hydrogenated pyu atomized steam?"

Pei Lu was dumbfounded. He didn't expect him to be able to think about this in such a turbulent and noisy world. He laughed: "The color is similar, but the concentration is much lower. The density and fluid texture are far different."

Jiang Xing, who had taught him with a serious face just now, praised him with sparkling eyes again, saying that he must know the states of various elements in different media so that he can judge immediately

"..."

It was past midnight when we returned to the hotel, Jiang Xing insisted on finishing the discipline of today's meeting, Pei Lu had no choice but to take a bath first.

The "buzzing" sound of the mobile phone's vibration interrupted his thoughts. Jiang Xing was reluctant to leave the intricate chemical elements on the laptop, and impatiently freed up a hand to pick it up.

"Hello."

Ye Yi on the other end took the phone from his ear in disbelief, repeatedly checking whether he dialed the wrong contact.

Jiang Xing stared at the screen of his laptop, but didn't hear the voice from the phone, so he could only repeat: "Hello? Who is it?"

Ye Yi's eyes sank.

It was not wrong.

At twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, Jiang Xing's voice came from Pei Lu's mobile phone, and the sound of water in the bathroom was very clear.

He immediately asked sharply, "Why are you in Brother Pei's room at this time?"
