Beauty has a lot of bad thoughts

Xue Dingbang fixed the tent and drove piles vigorously.The sky was not too bright, but fortunately he had night vision goggles.

The flashlight light coming from behind affected the use of the instrument.

The light was so dazzling that it almost burned Schrödingbang's retina.Just like Yin Ren who jumped into the river with him on his back that summer, shining brilliantly.The summer when Yin Ren bought the villa in the forest was very rare. Both of them had a vacation.They came to Yosemite National Park to escape the summer heat.

Yin Ren found a cliff where he could dive into. The sun reflected on the water surface, sparkling like broken silver sprinkled across a river.

The cliff is about six or seven meters high, and there are more than two floors.Standing on the edge of the cliff, Schrödingbang didn't think diving here was a good idea.It's not because of how high it is, but because of the sharp rocks that may exist at the bottom of the pool.

Yin Ren hugged Xue Dingbang and insisted on carrying Xue Dingbang who was taller than himself.

Xue Dingbang didn't struggle and move, he didn't want the two of them to fall together - the ground was quite hard.

The pool water is clear and cold.

At the moment of entering the water, all sounds seemed to have stopped.Time is also slowed down and lengthened.The water gently wrapped Xue Dingbang's body, caressing every inch of his skin.

Yin Ren laughed underwater, spitting out bubbles one by one.Yin Ren's back was facing the light of the sun, but it was more dazzling than the sun.Every line of his body looks sacred and ethereal, making it impossible to look directly at.

Xue Dingbang took off the night vision device and watched Yin Ren come slowly.His tall figure, with the light behind him, is still so perfect and sacred that it is impossible to look directly at him.

Therefore, Xue Dingbang nodded first.He withdrew his gaze and concentrated on the work in hand.The sky is full of stars, but without his moon.The light of the flashlight lengthened Schrödingbang's shadow, and his entire figure was projected on the tent.

The other shadow belongs to Yin Ren.

The figures of the two men looked extremely intimate.Yin Ren's hands seemed to rest on Xue Dingbang's shoulders, as if comforting him.But the fact is that Yin Ren is standing more than ten meters away from Xue Dingbang, with his new boyfriend beside him.

Xu Yu stood next to Yin Ren holding a flashlight. He glanced at his mouth and moved the flashlight away.The shadows of the two sneaked between the tent and the ground, as if they were about to embrace each other in the next second.

Yin Ren squeezed Xu Yu's hand, and said softly, "I'll help."

Xu Yu nodded and did not speak. He followed with a flashlight, and together with Yin Ren, walked to Xue Dingbang.

Yin Ren squatted down. He wanted to talk to Xue Dingbang, but he didn't know how to speak.The light swayed on Xue Dingbang's face, covering his handsome and soft face with a layer of firmness and indifference.For a moment, Yin Ren felt that the man in front of him was familiar yet unfamiliar.

Yin Ren opened his mouth, but he couldn't even call out Xue Dingbang's name.

Xue Dingbang blinked, then turned to look at Yin Ren.He didn't dare to look too much, just glanced at it.Then, Xue Dingbang mobilized every muscle in his face, squeezed out a gentle and kind smile as much as possible, and nodded to Yin Ren.

Xue Dingbang knew that Yin Ren wanted to speak, but he was not ready yet.If Yin Ren spoke now, even if he said half a word to him, he would choose to leave.Even if Yin Ren just called out his name, he would leave.

Now that Xue Dingbang doesn't want to talk, it doesn't mean that Yin Ren doesn't want to talk to Yin Ren.The incident between Yin Ren and Xu Yu just now had too much impact on him.He needs a little time, maybe 10 minutes, maybe an hour, maybe a day, maybe a month, maybe a year...

He needs time.

Yin Ren's silence gave Xue Dingbang a reason to stay.

Yin Ren squatted beside Xue Dingbang, picked up the chisel, and hooked the tent rope.As in the past, Xue Dingbang tacitly took the hammer and smashed it.They don't need to talk to each other, and they can understand what the other party wants.

This kind of tacit understanding, in many cases, makes them get along very well.

If Yin Ren didn't open his mouth, Xue Dingbang didn't ask either.

Xu Yu is like a street lamp, holding a flashlight, which has no other function except lighting.He looked at Xue Dingbang and Yin Ren, they were almost the same in stature, shape, and speed... It was like two perfectly matched gears to complete a boring job that required high-precision cooperation.

All the tools were handed over to Yin Ren at just the right time.Xue Dingbang always knows what Yin Ren needs before Yin Ren.Whether it is pitching a tent or living above.Even Xue Dingbang thought he understood Yin Ren's feelings.

Xue Dingbang has been cooperating with Yin Ren's pace from a very early age.These tacit understandings between them made the two of them have less communication in many cases.At that time, Schrödingbang carried a kind of - needless to say, I understand you, I understand you better than you - self-confidence.But now, the reality slammed in front of him, throwing his poor self-confidence from the height of 910 meters on the captain's peak, smashing his body to pieces.

They pulled up the rope together, and they could move in unison without shouting slogans.This tent has been used for some years, and Xue Dingbang deliberately dug it out from the warehouse of the villa in the forest.They bought this tent the year Yin Ren bought the villa in the forest.

The style is a little worn and the color of the canvas is a little faded.But big enough that sleeping four is not a problem.

They didn't really need such a big tent at that time, because Xue Dingbang and Yin Ren were the only ones who would climb the captain's peak.

Why do you want to buy such a big one?

Those unnecessary things, oversized houses, oversized villas, and oversized tents are not what Schrödingbang expected.

Yin Ren wants better conditions, a larger social circle, and a more luxurious life—he doesn't want Xue Dingbang to suffer.Knowing his good intentions, Xue Dingbang could not refuse Yin Ren's kindness no matter what.

But Xue Dingbang still missed those warm and peaceful years when they lived in a small house.Whether it was the small apartment redeemed when he was studying, or the basement where Yin Ren lived in New York, and the two of them squeezed into the narrow one-person tent, the first night spent on the Captain's Peak...

All these warm moments in the past happened in a small space.A small space shortens the distance between people.Xue Dingbang didn't have to worry about Yin Ren escaping.

Because of the narrowness, Xue Dingbang could reach out and wrap his arms around Yin Ren's body.

Because of the narrowness, Xue Dingbang can comfortably sleep beside Yin Ren.

Because of the narrowness, Xue Dingbang can get very close to Yin Ren, observing Yin Ren's face, Yin Ren's eyelashes, Yin Ren's nose bridge and lips, Yin Ren's fingers and collarbone...

They are very close now, and Xue Dingbang can clearly see Yin Ren's neatly combed hair, some of which fell mischievously and dangled in front of his forehead.Xue Dingbang could clearly see the way Yin Ren's eyelashes stirred the air every time he blinked.

Xue Dingbang could see his appearance clearly, but could not see through his heart.Self-righteously believe that Yin Ren will wait for him, listen to his explanation, and their relationship can be restored as before.

Thinking of this, Xue Dingbang couldn't help laughing at himself.

Yin Ren heard Xue Dingbang's chuckle, and turned his eyes to Xue Dingbang's face.The soft halo of the flashlight coated Schrödingbang with a layer of holy light.His skin texture is as transparent as ice-glazed ceramics.

The tent has been pulled up, and the two are still standing in place.

Xue Dingbang's inner thoughts were fluctuating, and he didn't notice that Yin Ren was observing himself with probing and complicated eyes.

Xu Yu couldn't stand the atmosphere between the two of them, so he dropped the flashlight and said, "I'm going back!"

Yin Ren was taken aback for a moment, then woke up as if suddenly realizing.Xu Yu turned around and walked so fast that Yin Ren didn't even have the time to react, and grabbed his hand to prevent him from running around on the captain's peak.

It was dark and the road was steep, and Yin Ren was very worried about whether he had lighting equipment in hand.He glanced at Xue Dingbang, nodded without saying anything, picked up the flashlight, and quickly ran towards the direction Xu Yu left.

They're all gone, all of them.

Only Xue Dingbang stood alone in the cold wind and darkness.He sat down where he was, propped his head with his hands, and sank into deep annoyance.

Even so, do you have nothing to say to me?Brother Ren, is there really nothing to talk about between us?

Sorry, I still can't speak.

Yin Ren's heart had clearly turned towards Xu Yu.He Xue Dingbang, what else can he say?Do you want to tell Yin Ren directly - I like you, dump your new boyfriend!with me!we will be together forever!

Xue Dingbang hugged his knees, his tall figure looked very fragile and helpless.He is like an abandoned child, curled up alone in a dark corner, waiting silently for the person who can redeem him to approach him, warm him, and possess him.

"Dingbangsang, is that you?" A clear, crisp and sweet voice sounded above his head, and Chris Maeda appeared in front of Xue Dingbang with a sleeping bag on his back, out of breath.He was carrying things in both hands, struggling to maintain his balance.

Xue Dingbang raised his head, turned on the windproof lamp at hand, and said softly: "It's so slow to come back. It's getting late, let's go to rest! Tomorrow morning, after watching the sunrise, we will go down the mountain."

Maeda Chris nodded obediently, held the food box in his hand like a treasure, and said sweetly: "Dingbangsang, look what I brought back for you? It's your favorite green beans! Mr. Smith said you like to eat this , Every time you eat steak, you have to serve it with green beans!"

Steak, green beans...

Indeed, every time Yin Ren cooks steak, he will serve it with broccoli and green beans.Xue Dingbang always eats up quickly, and never hesitates to praise Yin Ren's craftsmanship.It's not because he likes green beans so much, because Yin Ren made them specially for him.

Chris Maeda saw that Xue Dingbang's expression was wrong, and immediately guessed the reason.He put down the food and put it on Xue Dingbang's lap, put down his backpack and put it on the ground, and put down the heavy words in Xue Dingbang's ears.

"It's Lawyer Yin, right?" Chris Maeda gave Xue Dingbang a neutral look. "Lawyer Yin knows how to make green beans, so Dingbangsang likes it, right?"

Xue Dingbang didn't answer, he couldn't deny it, that would be lying.But he couldn't admit it either, because it would make him even more sad.

Chris Maeda opened the can of green beans, took a spoonful of it, put it near Xue Dingbang's mouth, and said, "Think of me as Lawyer Yin, okay? I'll feed you green beans."

Xue Dingbang raised his head sharply, grabbed Chris Maeda by the shoulders, and pushed him to the ground.

The author has something to say:

Chris Maeda: I don't mind being a stand-in.

Schrödingbang: I mind.
