The conservative man who wears the past through the present is crooked

===========================

When Ye Xiyu returned home, Ye Mingchao hadn't come back yet. He looked at the wall clock and found that it was already seven o'clock, so he hurried to the kitchen to get busy.When he was getting ready for dinner, Ye Mingchao just came home, and the father and son were having dinner at the dining table as usual——

"Dad, this is your favorite braised pork, eat more." Saying this, Ye Xiyu took a piece of braised pork for Ye Mingchao.

Hearing the "Dad", Ye Mingchao was obviously taken aback, and then looked at him in surprise, only to find that there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth. Ye Mingchao was taken aback again, and then smiled: "Son, why are you so happy today? ? Did you win any awards at school again?"

He froze for a moment, then shook his head with a smile, "No, I'm almost graduating, and I still focus on my studies, so I won't participate in other school competitions."

Ye Mingchao nodded thoughtfully, then looked at him with a smile and asked, "Then why are you smiling so happily? Could it be that you are in a relationship?!" After speaking, Ye Mingchao looked at him expectantly.

For some reason, after hearing Ye Mingchao's words, his heart suddenly "thumped". He quickly shook his head and denied, "No! Father, I'm still young, and it's too early to talk about someone now. I want to think about it after I have a successful career." thing."

Although he is still an "ancient man" in his bones, he also learned from the original owner's knowledge reserve that most young people in this era would choose to marry late and have children later.

Ye Mingchao let out an "oh" in a little disappointment, and then said a little unhappy: "Actually, I still like that you call me 'Dad' as before, always 'Father' and 'Father', and others would still be surprised if they heard it." You thought I was some kind of feudal patriarch."

Back then, Ye Xiyu was hospitalized due to an accident, and after waking up in the hospital, he became more taciturn than before.It was also at that time that Ye Xiyu no longer called Ye Mingchao "Dad", but changed to "Father", which sounds a bit serious...

Ye Mingchao didn't know that after the accident that year, the soul in his son's body had "changed his appearance".

After listening to Ye Mingchao's words, Ye Xiyu was taken aback for a moment again, and then belatedly realized that he was so happy that he called Ye Mingchao "Dad" just now without knowing it.

He quickly smiled at Ye Mingchao, and then gave Ye Mingchao another piece of braised pork, "Father, I am no longer a child, and I can no longer act like a baby with my father like I used to. Besides, my father also hopes that I can become a child as soon as possible." A man who can stand alone, isn't he?"

Ye Mingchao looked at the braised pork in the bowl and smiled helplessly, "You, you, okay, you read a lot, and your dad can't tell you. Okay, let's not talk, let's eat quickly." After finishing speaking, Ye Mingchao also gave him a piece of braised pork.

He glanced at the piece of braised pork, and then looked gratefully at Ye Mingchao who was eating deliciously - the father's love that he lacked in his previous life has been made up for in this family now, he told himself, no matter what, he I must honor Ye Mingchao well in my life.

In the dead of night, Ye Xiyu, who was already lying on the bed, began to reflect on his abnormality today - if Ye Mingchao hadn't asked him during the meal, he wouldn't have known that he actually laughed, and he seemed to be smiling happily...

He thought worriedly: what happened to me?Could it be that I really have feelings for Xiao Zhe that I shouldn't have? !

Thinking of this, he jumped up from the bed suddenly - not to mention that Lu Zheqian was also his student, he and Lu Zheqian were both boys, how could he have such feelings for a boy? !

His main task now is to accompany Lu Zheqian to finish the college entrance examination well, and at the same time prevent Lu Zheqian from "going astray". But if he accidentally develops such feelings for the same sex, how can he help Lu Zheqian? !

He sighed deeply, and then lay back on the bed. He thought to himself, why did he feel such a throbbing about Lu Zheqian?In fact, this kind of affection is not necessarily that kind of feeling, is it?Could this be my own illusion? ...

He had never been in a relationship before, so he fell into deep self-reflection, but after thinking about it for a long time, he still didn't understand whether his strange affection for Lu Zheqian was brotherhood or love.

Just when he was puzzled, he suddenly remembered a sentence that Lu Zheqian had said to him many times - "You will regret it".

He thought to himself, could it be that some of Lu Zheqian's recent abnormal behaviors are testing whether he is qualified to stay by his side as a tutor?Or let him "get out of trouble" and stop meddling?

Thinking about it, he couldn't help laughing at himself—he's not Lu Zheqian, no matter how much he thinks wildly, he can't know Lu Zheqian's true thoughts, so why should he be "messing around" here?

No matter what, he will not back down because of this, and he will definitely fulfill his promise - take good care of Lu Zheqian, accompany Lu Zheqian to complete this journey, and at the same time try to prevent Lu Zheqian from getting deeper and deeper on the "wrong path".

As Lu Zheqian's tutor, he should adjust his mentality, re-examine his feelings for Lu Zheqian, "strict self-discipline", "lead by example", and guide Lu Zheqian to "get back when he is lost".

Thinking of this, he felt that maybe he just resonated with Lu Zheqian in some aspects, but it didn't mean that he had that kind of affection for Lu Zheqian.

He firmly believes that his care for Lu Zheqian is due to his brotherly care, while other messy feelings are the illusion caused by his own oversensitivity.

Rather than thinking about it all the time, he might as well gather enough energy to deal with various problems in reality. In a word, he should "play by ear, adapt to the situation, and take advantage of the wind"... Thinking about it, he fell asleep without knowing it.

At the same time, in the Lu family mansion, Lu Zheqian and Lu Kunyong were sitting face to face at the dining table. Lu Kunyong frowned and looked at Lu Zheqian, and asked in a deep voice, "You mean, you're going out with Xiaoye tomorrow?"

Lu Zheqian nodded, "Yes," after speaking, Lu Zheqian got up and was about to leave, "Remember to remove the monitor in the study."

Lu Kunyong snorted coldly, looked at his back as he was about to leave, and didn't answer him about the monitoring, but just asked with a smile: "Why do you think I will let you go out with him?"

"I made great progress in the last final exam. You said that as a reward, you would promise me one thing." Speaking of this, Lu Zheqian turned around to look at Lu Kunyong and asked, "You won't break your promise, grandpa? "

This "Grandpa" is what Lu Kunyong has always been eager to hear, but for some reason, every time Lu Zheqian calls out, these two words stab into his heart like a thorn, and he doesn't answer right away Lu Zheqian just suppressed his anger and looked at the young man's stern eyebrows.

The grandfather and grandson just looked at each other for a while in the quiet restaurant. Finally, Lu Kunyong sighed helplessly like a deflated balloon, and said, "Okay, I promise you, but I also have a condition."

"Tell me." Lu Zheqian said calmly.

"I hope that in the mid-term exam next semester, you can break into the top [-] in your grade, otherwise, I will fire him." Lu Kunyong said lightly.

Lu Zheqian frowned, but still said, "Okay."

After finishing speaking, he ignored Lu Kunyong and went straight upstairs. Lu Kunyong looked at his resolute back and frowned again.

In the early morning of the next day, Ye Xiyu came to the bus station early. While waiting for Lu Zheqian, he thought about what he should do when he saw Lu Zheqian later, so as to maintain the current friendly relationship with Lu Zheqian, but not let Lu Zheqian misunderstand him. Feelings……

"What do you think?"

Lu Zheqian's voice suddenly sounded behind him, he was taken aback, turned around and saw Lu Zheqian standing imposingly behind him in a black sportswear.

Seeing Lu Zheqian's spirit, he couldn't help but said happily: "Xiao Zhe, why did you arrive so early?"

Lu Zheqian asked without answering, "Aren't you earlier than me?"

He was choked for a bit, but still smiled with the corners of his lips pulled, and changed the subject: "Have you had breakfast?"

Lu Zheqian shook his head, then cut to the chase and said, "Let's go, you lead the way."

He nodded and didn't say anything, but obediently walked ahead and led the way, neither of them spoke a word along the way.He thought to himself, why did Lu Zheqian's attitude towards him seem to have changed again?

In fact, what Lu Zheqian said yesterday to tell him not to be afraid of Lu Kunyong was really just a test for him, right?Or, was that just a manifestation of Lu Zheqian's dissatisfaction with Lu Kunyong and resistance to Lu Kunyong?

Just as he was thinking about it, he felt his arm being pulled by the person behind him. Before he had time to be surprised, he heard Lu Zheqian ask, "Is it here?"

"Ah?" He just came back to his senses and didn't realize what Lu Zheqian's words meant for a moment. Lu Zheqian gave him a suspicious look, and then turned his face to the side.

He followed Lu Zheqian's line of sight and found that they had already reached the gate of the pottery bar.

He smiled awkwardly: "Yes, it's here... I didn't expect the door to be opened yet. It seems that we came too early. Why don't we go have breakfast first?"

Lu Zheqian looked into his eyes. He originally wanted to look away, but he felt that he had no reason to avoid Lu Zheqian's gaze, so he smiled warmly into Lu Zheqian's gaze.

At this time, the soft morning light of winter just fell on his fluffy hair, and the mottled light and shadow swayed in the morning wind and gently swept over his eyelashes. was rang softly.

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Zheqian nodded lightly and asked, "Where to eat?"

Hearing this question, the smile on his face froze immediately—you know, he had never had breakfast near here.

Lu Zheqian noticed his embarrassment, but didn't tell the truth, just inadvertently twitched the corners of his lips, and then walked forward and said, "Come with me."

As he said that, Lu Zheqian had already walked a few steps away, and then he realized that he gave a soft "oh", and then hurriedly followed.

Ten minutes later, they were already seated in a nearby breakfast shop, and soon, staff brought them a rice roll and a bowl of porridge.

"Do you need anything else?" Lu Zheqian asked while handing him the chopsticks.

He quickly took the chopsticks and said "thank you", then shook his head.

Lu Zheqian nodded, and then began to eat with his chopsticks. He looked at Lu Zheqian in surprise, and then followed suit.

For some reason, there seemed to be a kind of magical tacit understanding between the two of them-they didn't speak during the meal, and under normal circumstances, the atmosphere would be awkward.But the atmosphere between the two is surprisingly harmonious or peaceful, as if they have long been used to each other's existence, used to accompany each other quietly, and used to wait silently together.

After eating breakfast, he saw that Lu Zheqian seemed to be in a good mood, so he asked, "Xiao Zhe, do you often eat out by yourself?"

As if he didn't expect him to ask this question suddenly, a look of surprise flashed across Lu Zheqian's face, but Lu Zheqian quickly hid his emotions, and only said lightly: "Occasionally, I will eat outside the school with my classmates. "

He nodded in understanding, and Lu Zheqian said again: "Let's go."

After finishing speaking, Lu Zheqian walked out of the store directly, and he quickly put on his schoolbag and followed.When he came to the door of the store, he saw that Lu Zheqian did not go far, but was standing under a tree not far away, waiting for him——

For some reason, at this moment, looking at the tall and straight figure of the young man in the morning breeze, he felt in a daze that that person seemed to have been waiting there for him for a long, long time. keep waiting.

Thinking of this, his heart felt inexplicably sad. He stopped hesitating and quickened his pace towards the boy who was waiting for him in the morning light.
