The bed at Cheng Liao's house is too small. Although the two of them can sleep together, it's too hot and energy-consuming to sleep in summer.Lin Yuanye wanted him to move to live with him, but he didn't want to increase the distance between him getting up early and going to work, so he finally dismissed the idea for the time being.

He slept at Cheng Liao's house for another night, and the next day after the man got up and went to the construction site, Lin Yuanye went back to his place.The two didn't meet again that day. Lin Yuanye went to bed early at night, and after getting up the next morning, he went to the construction site with his drawing board on his back.

Lin Yuanye met Yu Xi who hadn't seen him for a few days on the construction site. The two siblings of Yu's family seemed to like to go to the construction site, and they all came to find Cheng Liao.

Yu Xi arrived earlier than him. After the other party went to the construction site, he ran straight to Cheng Liao's work area with a clear goal, so Lin Yuanye didn't have time to meet him face to face.

He only knew that someone had gone to the construction area to find Cheng Liao when he heard the chatter of other workers outside the shed.Lin Yuanye put down his paintbrush and walked over, asked a few casual questions with a smile on his face, and quickly matched the worker's description of the man's appearance with Yu Weiwei's younger brother.

It's unclear whether the other party came here at Yu Weiwei's behest, or if he bypassed Yu Weiwei and came here privately.But Yu Xi's appearance here inevitably reminded him of the vague conversation he heard on the second floor of the bar on Yu Weiwei's birthday night.

He threw the drawing board and pen in the arbor, turned and walked towards the construction area in the distance.

Lin Yuanye didn't find Cheng Liao and Yu Xi in the construction area. He didn't wear the safety helmet on the construction site, so he didn't get too close when standing on the periphery.There was also no baby face or Brother Li around. Lin Yuanye turned to stop the other workers and asked, "Have you seen Cheng Liao? I have something to do with him."

"Cheng Liao," the latter showed some understanding, then raised his hand and pointed to the short shed not far behind him, "he went over there to get his helmet."

Lin Yuanye thanked him, then turned around and walked towards the back shed.

The shed curtain in front of the low shed was raised, and before Lin Yuanye could fully approach, he vaguely saw Cheng Liao's figure standing inside the shed.And beside Cheng Liao, there was another young boy standing.

Both of them stood with their backs to him, and no one noticed Lin Yuanye approaching from outside the shed.Cheng Liao bent down and picked up the helmet and handed it to Yu Xi. After the latter took it, he put it on top of his head and fiddled with it.

After a while, he looked at Cheng Liao helplessly and asked, "How can I shorten this belt?"

Lin Yuanye stopped outside the shed and didn't go in. When he heard Yu Xi's question, although he didn't want to admit it, his heart still raised it uncontrollably.

Cheng Liao didn't raise his hand to help him fasten it, but stood there without moving, and gave him a few brief words of guidance.Seeing that Yu Xi had put on his helmet, he looked away without any pause, and was about to turn around and walk out of the shed.

Lin Yuanye reacted very quickly and hid by the shed curtain. Through the curtain, he heard Cheng Liao take two steps towards the door, but was quickly stopped by Yu Xi from behind.

Yu Xi called him in a low voice, Lin Yuanye was struggling to hear him standing behind the curtain, and in the end he could only be recognized. It was not wrong that Yu Xi called Cheng Liao, but it was not Cheng Liao who he called. name.

As if acquiescing to what Yu Xi called him, Lin Yuanye heard Cheng Liao walking back, and asked him something in a low voice.

Lin Yuanye stared at the curtain in front of him and frowned slightly, the thoughts about Cheng Liao's acquaintance with Yu's siblings flooded his mind uncontrollably again.Cheng Liao, who is just working on a construction site in a small town, has no channel or opportunity to get to know them who are studying abroad.

The content of the conversation between the two could no longer be heard clearly, and he couldn't think of a reasonable explanation for the time being. Lin Yuanye, in a slightly confused state of mind, stepped back slowly.

The conversation in the shed was not interrupted, and when Yu Xi called out his English name, Cheng Liao raised his eyelids and asked him, "Do you know me?"

Although he used interrogative sentences, there was an affirmative tone in his words.

There was obvious surprise in Yu Xi's eyes, "My sister said it was you, but I have never been sure."

When the two were studying abroad, they once saw Cheng Liao in a suit at an important debate tournament.In that game, Yu Weiwei was a contestant, and Yu Xi entered the arena with a ticket from the audience.

Yu Weiwei's school team did not make it to the finals, and the two left in a hurry, and only saw Cheng Liao's face at the end of the auditorium.As the only Chinese student in that team, Cheng Liao naturally attracted the attention of the two of them.

But that's all, they had nothing to do with Cheng Liao, who was about to graduate at that time.

Ever since I saw Cheng Liaoqi in the bar last time, Yu Weiwei has always had doubts about it. Afterwards, he went to the Internet to search for the list of winners of that debate tournament, but he only found Cheng Liao's English name on the list.

And in the past few days, she went through the contacts established during her study abroad, and finally found out the other party's Chinese name, and then she was able to confirm that the young boy they saw in the debate field was the same person who is now on the construction site in the small town. Cheng Liao is doing things.

"Yu Weiwei asked you to come to me?" Even after being recognized, Cheng Liao's expression still didn't change much.

Yu Xi nodded and replied, "My sister asked me to ask you, does Lin Yuanye know your real identity?"

The expression on Cheng Liao's face finally changed, but instead of answering his question directly, he answered in a flat voice: "I see."

Yu Xi showed a puzzled expression, as if she didn't quite understand the meaning of the other party's words.

Before he could think about it carefully, he heard Cheng Liao say again: "You help me convey it to her, I owe her a favor for this matter."

Hearing this, Yu Xi seemed to understand a little bit again.Yu Weiwei has been in the city for the past two days and has no time to come back. When she found Yu Xi and asked him to help, Yu Xi only thought that she hadn't given up on Cheng Liao.

But what Yu Weiwei told him was, "It's not bad to fall in love with Cheng Liao, but I'm not a fool. Since this matter can't be done, instead of continuing to chase him and stalk him, it's better to take a step back and start from Cheng Liao. Liao asked for a favor. After all," she raised her eyebrows confidently, "not everyone can make Cheng Liao owe a favor."

"What kind of favor?" Yu Xi asked subconsciously.

"Naturally," Yu Weiwei smiled softly, "it's a favor to keep the secret of his real identity for Cheng Liao."

When the two finished their conversation, they saw Lin Yuanye waiting for them not far from the shed.Yu Xi had already finished his errands, he took off his hard hat, bid farewell to the two and left.

Seeing Cheng Liao walking towards him, Lin Yuanye was the first to ask him with a smile, "Why does Yu Xi want you?"

"Yu Weiwei asked him to bring me a message." Cheng Liao simply explained to him, but he didn't say anything.

Lin Yuanye didn't deliberately ask, but nodded thoughtfully, and glanced at the top of his head that wasn't wearing a helmet, "You don't need to go back to work now?"

Hearing this, Cheng Liao slightly raised his eyes to glance at the sunlight falling outside the shed, "I'll go to the dormitory building to wash my face first."

Lin Yuanye didn't say anything else, and followed him to the dormitory.

Cheng Liao went to wash his face in the bathroom on the second floor, and Lin Yuanye was standing by the stairs in the corridor waiting for him.

The side of the stairs happened to be at the air outlet, the wind was strong and there was no sunlight, he stood with his head down in the sound of the flowing wind playing with his mobile phone, Cheng Liao turned around from the end of the corridor after washing his face, he did not rush to urge him to leave, but walked forward a little casually He took two steps, stopped at a position outside the wind direction, took out a cigarette from his trouser pocket and lit it, bit his lips and fell into thought briefly.

He had no intention of keeping his identity a secret.It's just that instead of letting Lin Yuanye know from others, he hopes that Lin Yuanye can find out by himself.Now that his purpose of coming here has been achieved, it is also time for Lin Yuanye to consciously follow the clues and slowly find out.

Thinking about his plan to come here, Cheng Liao also remembered the phone call that Yang Jinnian made from China back then.The other party clearly conveyed to him on the phone that Lin Yuanye had a strange preference in choosing a boyfriend.

And Cheng Liao still has doubts and surprises about the words relayed by Yang Jinnian until now.The important reason why he decided to hide his identity and appear in this town was not the words that made him suspicious, but the fact that he was rejected by Lin Yuanye.

From a generally objective point of view, his family background and appearance are considered top-notch among the crowd, but Lin Yuanye refused without hesitation.This made him quickly realize the core of the whole problem, that he was not Lin Yuanye's preferred type.

This is the reason why he wants to appear in this small town with a brand new identity.

From the corner of the eye, he caught sight of Lin Yuanye holding the mobile phone with a bright screen, walking from above to below the direction of the wind, Cheng Liao quickly recovered from his thoughts, hooked his fingertips around his back collar, and pulled him back to the original place without any explanation. place, "Standing below will smell of smoke."

Lin Yuanye raised his eyes with a chuckle, and then his eyes fell on the cigarette he had squeezed away from his lips, "I don't hate the smell of smoke on your body."

"The smell of smoke from me is not much different from the smell of smoke from others." The man explained to him calmly.

"Really?" Lin Yuanye asked leisurely, "Why don't I try it myself?"

When Cheng Liao heard this, although his tone of voice didn't change much, his eyes slightly narrowed, "Who do you want to try?"

Lin Yuanye smiled and looked at him without speaking.

Cheng Liao stood on the spot without moving, with the hand that didn't hold the cigarette across his waist, and his arms wrapped around his waist to bring him in front of him, emphasizing in a low and clear voice: "You can only ask me to try."

Lin Yuanye nodded submissively, raised his face, and gently kissed the corner of the man's lips.

The two stood silently in the wind and kissed.

It wasn't until the sound of approaching footsteps came from downstairs in the dormitory that Cheng Liao's arm was slowly withdrawn from his waist.The cigarette held between his fingers was already more than half burned, Cheng Liao looked down at his face, "Go down, someone is coming."

Lin Yuanye wanted to say yes, but he heard an unusually familiar voice, with a serious and firm tone, rang downstairs without warning, "The toilet upstairs is under maintenance, and you can't go up now."

Soon realizing that it was Babyface's voice, Lin Yuanye couldn't help but froze, and then a bit of obvious confusion surfaced.

The toilet upstairs is under repair, why didn't he and Cheng Liao know about it?
