Lin Yuanye woke up earlier than Cheng Liao. When he opened his eyes, the person next to him seemed to be still asleep with their eyes closed.He lazily lifted his eyelids, but he had no intention of getting up.

The man's long and slow breathing fell into his ears, and Lin Yuanye couldn't help but tilt his head in the pillow, looking at the other's quiet sleeping face with a little novelty.

Cheng Liao's eyes were tightly closed, and his dark eyelashes cast a faint shadow on his eyes. From Lin Yuanye's angle, the man's clear and smooth outline was not as cold and sharp as usual.

His browbones and bridge of nose are high, which is the handsome bone that Lin Yuanye likes.Lin Yuanye couldn't help but tsk his tongue lowly, stretched out his hand fondly, and gently touched his eyebrows and the bridge of his nose.

Probably still trapped in some kind of sweet dream, Cheng Liao was unaware of his little movements, and he didn't seem to have any signs of waking up soon.Lin Yuanye raised the corners of his lips happily, and slowly slid his fingertips from the bridge of his high nose, carefully stroking his drooping eyelashes.

Cheng Liao's eyelashes are not shorter than his, but the facial features and appearance of a man often make people downplay and ignore the presence of the other's eyelashes on his face.

Wanting to know what kind of dream the other party was having in such a deep sleep, Lin Yuanye stared at him for a while without blinking, but he was still unable to discern any subtleties from his peaceful face. The clues come.

Lin Yuanye's eyes fell on his chin.Cheng Liao's chin was also in the shape he liked, his fingertips slowly cut through the air, and outlined a rough outline around his chin, Lin Yuanye suddenly paused in doubt.

In the next second, he gently raised his palm to cover the man's eyes, and maintained this movement to look at Cheng Liao's lips and chin again.

Cheng Liao's chin made him feel familiar for no reason, but he couldn't remember where that subtle and vague feeling of familiarity came from.

Quickly giving up thinking about this question, Lin Yuanye moved his hands away from his eyelids.When he retracted his hand, he accidentally touched Cheng Liao's lips, and Lin Yuanye's eyes fell on his pursed lips.

Two seconds later, he cautiously raised his head, and quietly moved to the man's sleeping face, wanting to kiss his lips wickedly.

Unexpectedly, before he had time to press his lips together, he saw Cheng Liao's pursed lips move slightly.Lin Yuanye was slightly stunned, thinking that the other party would soon wake up from sleep, but saw Cheng Liao whispering two words with his eyes closed: "Xiao Yu."

Lin Yuanye was very close to the other party at the moment, and he could clearly hear his babbling in his dream.The dazed look in his eyes gradually became thicker, and the expression on Lin Yuanye's face froze for a moment.Little fish, or—

Xiaoyu?

Whether it's Xiaoyu or Xiaoyu, the person Cheng Liao dreams about probably won't be him.Although he still had reason to tell him that Cheng Liao didn't show any unusual behavior in front of Yu's siblings, he still couldn't help recalling the scene of Yu Xi being alone with Cheng Liao on the construction site that morning.

Yu Xi seemed to know some things he didn't know, and he could even call Cheng Liao other names he had never heard before.

Lin Yuanye's happy mood when he woke up lost most of it without warning.He got up from in front of the man and sat down, frowning slightly and looking down at the sleeping person beside him.

And Cheng Liao was finally awakened by his movements, and slowly opened his black eyes under his unpredictable gaze.

"Are you awake?" The man's slightly hoarse voice sounded from the bed.

Lin Yuanye hummed casually and didn't speak again.

Seeing that he seemed to be in a low mood, Cheng Liao stretched his arms around his waist and asked in a low and slow tone, "Unwell?"

This question was somewhat on point, Lin Yuanye nodded and replied calmly: "Uncomfortable."

Assuming that he was physically uncomfortable, Cheng Liao's fingers rested on the hem of his pajamas, "May I see?"

Lin Yuanye came to his senses, and the expression on his face quickly returned to normal. He pressed his arm and shook his head and refused, "No need."

The two got up and packed up their breakfast. During the entire conversation at the dining table, Lin Yuanye did not show any obvious abnormalities.It wasn't until Cheng Liao mentioned lunch that he suddenly asked the other party: "I want to eat boiled fish."

"Boiled fish is too spicy." Cheng Liao vetoed his proposal, "Steamed fish is fine."

Lin Yuanye did not compromise like before, but looked at him persistently and stubbornly and said, "I have never eaten boiled fish."

Facing his emotionally exposed eyes, Cheng Liao couldn't help but recall for some reason, the pair of eyes that Lin Yuanye held up his phone and questioned himself after he was drunk in his memory.

Although there was no trace of grievance in the eyes of the person in front of him, his blank and puzzled eyes in his memory gradually overlapped with Lin Yuanye's eyes at this time.

Cheng Liao said, "Okay."

Half an hour later, he went out to buy fish in the vegetable market.

Lin Yuanye's depressed mood from waking up to finishing breakfast finally got a little relief after the other party left.He pondered alone for a while to no avail, and there was no reliable opposite sex among his friends, so he finally called Jiang Chi directly and asked, "If your boyfriend called someone else's name in a dream, what is the signal?"

"Cheating." Jiang Chi answered without thinking on the other end of the phone, and realized something was wrong after answering, "No, I don't have a boyfriend."

Lin Yuanye murmured softly and did not refute his words.In fact, he thinks so too, but he doesn't really believe it. His own vision is so bad, it's clear that he is as experienced in battles on paper, but when it comes to real love, he is easily misjudged.

Sniffing out the unusual breath from his silence, Jiang Chi gasped in surprise, "Is this person you're talking about, you or your friend?"

"Myself." Lin Yuanye replied.

Jiang Chi was slightly taken aback, "Where did you find your boyfriend in the country? Or," as if suddenly recalling something, he raised his voice involuntarily, "Did you take Chen Lin's tricks again?"

He didn't realize for a while, Lin Yuanye couldn't answer immediately who the other party said was Chen Lin.

Right when he acquiesced to his guess, Jiang Chi patted the table angrily and said, "I said it earlier, then Chen Rin is no good—"

Finally, he suddenly remembered that the Chen Lin mentioned in the other party's words was an ambiguous object that was blocked during college. Lin Yuanye raised his hand to his forehead and interrupted him speechlessly: "It's not him."

Jiang Chi stopped speaking suddenly, and then asked subtly: "Then where did you find your boyfriend?"

"In town." Lin Yuanye said.

Suddenly choked by his words, Jiang Chi couldn't figure out why he ran to the countryside to find a boyfriend, "What does he do?"

"Work at the construction site." Lin Yuanye said.

After the words fell, it was Jiang Chi's turn to hold up the phone and be speechless.After a while, he comforted Lin Yuanye in a tactful tone and said, "When you come back from the countryside, I'll introduce you to rich kids who have returned from studying abroad."

"What's wrong with working on the construction site?" Hearing what he meant, Lin Yuanye raised his eyebrows indifferently, "He's no worse than a kid from a rich family who came back from studying abroad."

Jiang Chi began to wonder if he was bewitched by the man who moved bricks at the construction site.He had seen related news reports on the Internet, and knew that it was very difficult to wake up Lin Yuanye, so he could only ask him implicitly: "You didn't send him money, did you?"

Lin Yuanye thought for a second, and replied truthfully, "I have this idea."

Alarm bells rang in Jiang Chi's heart.Although Lin Yuanye couldn't lose all of the rich family property of the Lin family with just a little money, it's not an option if it goes on like this for a long time.Regretting that he was so busy watching Cheng Liao's return to China these days that he ignored Fa Xiao who was staying in the town, he calmly suppressed the worries in his heart, and decided to start with Lin Yuanye's family.

The two talked for ten minutes, but they didn't say anything.Jiang Chi was thinking about calling Lin Yuanye's house, so he found an excuse and hung up the phone.

On the other hand, Lin Yuanye couldn't figure it out, but he wasn't used to keeping silent for a long time, so he finally decided to call Cheng Liao to find out.

During these days with Cheng Liao, it seemed that the more time went by, the more questions the other party brought to him.The perplexities that could be counted at the beginning gradually piled up as time passed.

Can't wait for Cheng Liao to buy fish back, Lin Yuanye directly finds Cheng Liao's number and dials it.Cheng Liao's answer on the phone may decide whether he wants to open the door for him or not.

While waiting for the other party to connect, he suddenly realized belatedly that Cheng Liao seemed to have been away for a long time.Lin Yuanye's heart beat uncontrollably faster with a weird premonition that he couldn't explain clearly.

Never felt that the waiting process was so long. Before the call was about to hang up, the other party finally picked up the phone.And Lin Yuanye only had time to utter one word: "You—"

"I'm not at the vegetable market." The man interrupted him first with clear words, "I have something to go home."

After two seconds of silence, Lin Yuanye asked in surprise, "Did you forget to take something?"

The tone of the other party on the phone paused slightly, "It's not where I live."

Lin Yuanye didn't say anything.

"I have something to go back home." After a brief explanation, Cheng Liao asked him again, "What do you want to say?"

"Actually, it's nothing." Lin Yuanye pretended to answer the words casually and casually, "I just want to ask." After a brief pause, he pointed to the point concisely, "Who is Xiao Yu?"

"When you didn't wake up in the morning, I heard you call his name." Lin Yuanye said.

Cheng Liao's breathing on the phone was not disturbed, and his tone still sounded low and steady: "I can tell you anything you want to know." After thinking for a while with lowered eyes, he made a promise to Lin Yuanye, " Give me three days."

"I'll come back in three days and tell you everything," said the man.
