white feathers upstairs

Sean looked at him quietly for a long time, his eyes as dark as glass were so beautiful that people couldn't look away.

Jason was in it right now.

Sean didn't respond, he continued to look down at the book, taking Jason's confession as air.

Jason knew him too well, and knew that he wasn't necessarily angry. He was cold-tempered and didn't show his emotions or anger, but he could see the joy revealed between his brows.

Jason deliberately pretended to be very interested, and reached for his book: "What are you reading? So serious."

Sean snatched him back before he could fully lift it up.

He stood up holding "Time and Time" and walked towards the bookshelf. He didn't make eye contact the whole time. Jason touched the tip of his nose, smiled, and followed.

Sean put back the book he had just borrowed intact, feeling someone beside him, and the hot and slightly chaotic breath sweeping past his ears.

"I'm talking to you, Sean, did you hear that?" Jason put his hands on his shoulders, made him face him, and moved closer, his thin lips almost touching the tip of Sean's nose.

The ambiguity at this moment, the feelings brewing in the air, all make people's hearts surge.

But Sean, the thousand-year-old iceberg, stood still, with a cold expression on his handsome face: "Jason, don't make such jokes with me."

Jason seemed to have been greatly wronged, and smiled wryly, "You think I'm joking? Sean, I mustered up the courage to confess my love to you, but you actually think I'm joking?"

Sean saw complex emotions in Jason's deep eyes, including disappointment, distress, and traces of love.

He was startled and didn't know how to answer, even forgot to move his hand away.

"Sean..." Jason lowered his head, his breathing became heavy and disordered at this moment, and he pushed away those two cool lips that were about to lick.

His tone was no longer as calm as before, nor as flustered as he was, Sean said firmly, "Jason, is everything you said true?"

"What are you cheating on?"

"You... I never knew you were..."

He didn't say the word "gay", Jason also guessed one or two, and said with a smile: "Why, you can't accept it? I thought you were an open-minded person. Although you didn't really laugh when you were with me, But I can feel that you are enjoying the process, I didn't expect you to be like those ordinary people-"

"No," Sean cut him off and said seriously, "I'm not biased and I do like being with you because you, unlike them, respect my ideas and consider my feelings, but I'm not sure about that." Is it love, maybe it's just dependence among friends."

"Is it really okay for you to perfunctory me like this?" Jason said with a half-smile.

Sean looked up at him: "I didn't perfunctory you, this is my truth."

"Sean, I like you and want you to be my boyfriend."

Jason has always been straightforward when speaking, and he doesn't know how to hide his emotions. He and Sean, who doesn't show emotions, are people in two worlds.

Sean's cheeks felt hot when he heard his blunt words.

"Jason, I need to think about it. Is it okay to give you an answer in a few days?" Sean said after hesitation.

Jason hesitated to speak, and finally smiled slightly, with charming tenderness in his eyes: "Okay, take your time to think about it, I can wait."

It was that kind of tenderness that relieved Sean's heart that had been dusty for 20 years, brought him back to life, and gave him a desire for a new life.

There was also a researcher in the field of chemistry who confessed to him. At that time, he just thought he was young and ignorant and ignored him. He refused so simply at the beginning, but now he doesn't have the courage.

Over two years of being together day and night and accompanying each other, Sean has regarded Jason as an indispensable part of his life.

But if he really wants to develop that kind of relationship, he has to think carefully.

……

Zhao Qiyun put a piece of silver cod into his mouth, chewed it and said: "Eat more, I see you are getting thinner and thinner."

"No, I obviously gained weight." Sean said seriously.

Zhao Qiyun showed a kind smile that only elders can have: "Then you have to eat more, you are doing the most brain-consuming job."

Sean's expression gradually turned cold when he heard the words. Zhao Qiyun originally thought that he would reply "It's okay" as confidently as before, but he didn't expect him to say, "Uncle, I seem to have entered a plateau period recently."

"Why do you say that?"

"It's just that we can't find new breakthroughs in research. No matter how hard we try, we seem to be standing still. There is no way to go to the next level, and the papers we write are not satisfactory." Sean said truthfully.

Zhao Qiyun was a little surprised. He never knew that the nephew who was known as a genius and was called a "ghost" and "devil" had also encountered a bottleneck. He asked, "Are you asking too much of yourself? Sean, you can't force yourself in everything. After all, you are not a god, you are already envious of others with today's achievements, you have already stood at the peak, where do you want to break through?"

Sean shook his head, frowning slightly: "Uncle, science has never been at its peak."

"I know, but in my eyes, you have achieved the ultimate. Although the president will not say anything, I know he must be proud of you."

Sean's voice was low: "Will he?"

"It will definitely. He is now discussing business in country M, and he will be back soon. You can go home and have a look."

Sean didn't answer the question directly, he took a bite of the sushi, but what he was thinking about was the pudding he ate with Gu Yuhan at the Jiaxing Hotel that day.

For some reason, he suddenly missed that smell very much.

"Ling Chen, do you know? The professor is sick."

Sean asked lightly, "What's wrong?"

"It's not serious, it's inflammation, it's just that it's a little hard to work."

"Why don't you take a good rest at home and work while sick?" Sean asked puzzled.

"I have persuaded her, but the professor is stubborn, she just refuses to rest, and says that no one cares when she is exhausted. I think, she still misses you."

Sean didn't have any extra words, he stuffed the remaining half of the sushi into his mouth, but his eyes didn't know where to fall.

When he resolutely left that home because he couldn't bear the neglect day after day, he never thought about going back. He knew that he was the sinner who killed his brother, and he didn't have the face to go back.

"Sometimes they really say too much, don't take it too seriously."

"Uncle, I also want to be the son they are proud of, so I have been working hard on scientific research, which can be regarded as a small achievement, but no matter how hard I try, they always hold on to that matter, and I am also I have no choice but to leave.”

"I know that you have come to this day not only by talent, but also by hard work. I will have a good talk with them..."

"No, uncle, don't say anything, I don't want you to get involved."

"But I also don't want to see you frowning every day."

"I can solve this matter myself, so I really don't need uncle to worry about it."

Zhao Qiyun looked at him for a while, with a complicated expression.

Although Sean has a cold personality, he still has a lot of feelings in his heart. He doesn't express, but guards persistently. It must be unbearable to make him fall out with his family and break up. And he has such a strong personality. Yu Shui is also unlikely.
