Rebirth: My Childhood Sweetheart Came into My Arms

"What did you say? Young Master He and the Chairman are together?"

"Yeah, I only found out today too. I went to the bathroom during morning reading and bumped into them kissing. Oh my god, it was so intense, I almost... wait, didn't you know they were together?" Jing Ran suddenly sat up, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

Jiang Chengyu and Bei Yao were getting so close recently, he thought Bei Yao already knew about it. Turns out, this guy was just as kept in the dark as he was.

So... wouldn't you say he leaked a secret?

Thinking of this, Jingran felt a little uneasy.

He promised Jiang Chengyu that he would keep their secret, but before the day was even over, he broke his promise. If Brother Yu finds out, he'll probably set him on fire like a firecracker.

On the other side, Bei Yao seemed to be deep in thought.

He seemed to understand why Jiang Chengyu had suddenly called him last night.

It turns out that the theory has been put into practice.

However, on the other hand...

"They didn't do anything else besides kissing in the bathroom, did they?"

"I don't think so, I didn't see it... Wait, why are you asking this?"

Bei Yao gave a mischievous grin. "Nothing, just a little curious, after all, we're both young and hot-blooded."

Young and impetuous...

"You mean, besides kissing, they also..." Jingran's pupils dilated, then she shook her head vigorously, "No, no, no, that's impossible! Brother Yu is so pure, he's never even watched porn, he would never do that kind of thing!"

Upon hearing this, Bei Yao's smile deepened.

"What kind of thing are you referring to? I haven't said anything yet, what are you imagining?"

"I..." Jing Ran blushed slightly, which was unusual for her.

Thanks to He Ziyu, he was fortunate enough to have seen one or two short films featuring men and men, and learned that men could use their hands and even their rear ends together.

Jingran imagined the scene of his two best buddies stripping naked and rolling around together, and he felt terrible.

Jiang Chengyu's image in his mind was as pure as a blank sheet of paper; if those two were really...

No, no, I can't think about it anymore, it's too scary.

Bei Yao: "I thought you didn't know anything, but it seems I underestimated you."

"No, no! Didn't I already say that I stayed at A-Yu's house that day and accidentally looked at his folder, and then... I learned just a little bit about him?"

"Oh, really?" Bei Yao nodded meaningfully, picked up a chicken leg with his chopsticks, and held it to Jing Ran's mouth. "No matter what, eat first. Elderly people living alone should take better care of themselves."

"..."

"Besides, if they don't want to play with you, you can come to me. My arms are always open to you." Bei Yao said, waving the chicken leg in his hand, coaxing and cajoling, "Little darling, open your mouth."

Jingran got goosebumps from that "little baby".

He slapped Bei Yao's hand away in disgust and said fiercely, "Who's your little darling? Don't call me that!"

"Okay, whatever you say." Bei Yao whispered in his ear, "My darling."

Jing Ran: "!!!"

……

Today is Monday, and it's He Ziyu's turn to be on duty.

After school, Jiang Chengyu went to the student council, while he and Jiang Nanqiao stayed behind to clean.

"Qiaoqiao, you can rest over there. I can finish this by myself in no time." He Ziyu deftly crumpled the trash into a pile and proudly blew on his sweaty bangs.

Jiang Nanqiao sat on the edge of the desk, fanning He Ziyu with her books. "I didn't realize you were such a homebody. The person who marries you will definitely be very happy."

The radar of female fans of BL (Boys' Love) is always accurate, and Jiang Nanqiao is no exception.

Although He Ziyu never explicitly stated his affiliation, Jiang Nanqiao felt that he had to be a submissive character, and could only be a submissive character.

"What kind of domestic skills do I have? I'm nowhere near as good as Brother Yu. He not only does housework well, but he's also an excellent cook. Whoever marries him will be truly blessed."

When He Ziyu said these words, his eyes shone brightly, as if he were showing off his most prized possession.

Jiang Nanqiao felt like she was hooked again.

A moment later, Jiang Nanqiao suddenly thought of something, her face slightly flushed as she jumped off the desk, took out a newly drawn sketch from her schoolbag, and handed it to He Ziyu.

"You liked the last drawing, so I drew another one."

This time, the drawing was done on A4 paper, making the brushstrokes clearer and more realistic.

In the painting, he sits on a desk, his hands supporting him on the table, leaning back slightly. Jiang Chengyu stands in front of him, leaning over and lifting his chin, a faint smile playing on her lips.

The two were very close, almost kissing.

He Ziyu's face immediately turned red.

This...this is clearly the erotic BL manga he'd been reading before! And with himself as the protagonist, the sense of immersion is even stronger.

"I don't know if you like this style, and if it offends you..."

"No, not at all, I love it so much." He Ziyu held the painting, unable to put it down.

He cherished everything related to Jiang Chengyu, but given Jiang Nanqiao's output, he estimated he would need to make a special locked box to store them.

Seeing how much He Ziyu liked her painting, Jiang Nanqiao was overjoyed, practically bubbling with happiness. In her excitement, she gripped her skirt tightly and blurted out:

"You and the class monitor must take good care of yourselves. And please don't hesitate to keep stuffing candy into my mouth!"

Perhaps due to excessive excitement, Jiang Nanqiao's face turned as red as an apple, and even her voice was trembling.

For a fleeting moment, He Ziyu thought Jiang Nanqiao had seen him kissing Jiang Chengyu, and he felt a little flustered.

Just as I was pondering how to respond, a familiar voice suddenly reached my ears.

"What's going on, Young Master He? The girls in your class already know, and you're still keeping it from us?"

He Ziyu looked in the direction of the sound.

Bei Yao, with his left trouser leg rolled up to his calf, stood leaning against the door, his index finger holding his schoolbag slung over his shoulder, looking at them with a teasing expression.

"Huh? What do you know?" Jiang Nanqiao scratched his head, a little confused.

Bei Yao walked into the classroom and looked at Jiang Nanqiao.

"It's about them being together, otherwise why would you let them be all lovey-dovey?"

"..."

After Bei Yao finished speaking, Jiang Nanqiao was stunned.

Are they together?

What did she miss?

Although she was certain there was something between He Ziyu and her when he first accepted her painting, she never dared to hope that there was anything between them.

Now Bei Yao is saying that they're together?

Jiang Nanqiao swallowed hard, looking at He Ziyu expectantly, "You, you and the class monitor..."

When He Ziyu met Jiang Nanqiao's withered, longing gaze, his heart softened, and he gritted his teeth and nodded.

Happiness came too suddenly, and Jiang Nanqiao's heart couldn't handle it. She was so excited that her eyes rolled back and she fainted.

……

"That guy Xiao Jing, his mouth is faster than the flywheel of a bicycle. If you ask him to keep it a secret, he'll tell everyone right away."

"This can't be blamed on him. He thought I already knew and just casually mentioned it. And don't worry, the secret ends with me. As for Jiang Nanqiao, it was purely an accident..."

"It doesn't matter if she knows, after all, in her eyes my relationship with Brother Yu has long been impure, and Qiaoqiao is a pretty good girl, and she keeps her mouth shut. What I'm really afraid of is He Ningqiu. He's just looking for a way to catch me red-handed. If he finds out, he'll definitely come in and smooth things over."

Outside the infirmary, He Ziyu and Bei Yao spoke to each other in hushed tones.

He Ziyu explained his situation to Bei Yao, who listened and expressed his understanding.

"I know about the president's family situation. His parents are so strict, they definitely can't accept that their son is gay anytime soon. But don't worry, I'll do my best to cover for you." Bei Yao said, taking out his phone and finding the post by "Sweet Strawberry Jam" on the campus forum. "After this post was published, quite a few people responded. As long as you and the president don't go too far at school, there shouldn't be any major problems."

He Ziyu paused for a moment upon seeing the familiar ID.

"Are you sweet strawberry jam???"

"It wasn't me, it was Gu Wang," Bei Yao said. "I asked Gu Wang to post the message."

Upon hearing this, He Ziyu was first surprised, then grateful.

He grabbed Bei Yao's arm and exclaimed sincerely, "Brother Yao, you are truly an angel on earth..."

Before, I assisted them, and now I'm setting screens for them.

Where can you find such a good brother?! (Ｔ▽Ｔ)

"Don't rush to praise me, I have conditions too." Bei Yao smiled mischievously, "For example, put in a good word for me with Little Lightning."

"That's easy, leave it to me."

"Oh, and one more thing..." Bei Yao cleared her throat, lowering her voice even further, "Your husband is too innocent. He called last night and said he's never masturbated before. That won't do. You should help him out sometime, so he doesn't get too frustrated."

He Ziyu almost choked on his saliva when he heard Bei Yao say such lewd things in such a serious manner.

Just as I was about to ask you two grown men why you were talking about this kind of thing at night, Jiang Nanqiao walked out of the infirmary weakly.

"Qiaoqiao, why are you out here?" He Ziyu strode forward and helped her. "Why don't you rest a little longer?"

"No, no need, I can still drink... no, I can still manage." Jiang Nanqiao waved her hand, her face beaming with happiness.

Her dream came true, and she felt that her life was complete.

So what if I die from it?!

After Jiang Nanqiao fainted, she was taken to the infirmary. Fan Xunmei examined her and said that she fainted not because of low blood sugar, but because she was too excited.

He Ziyu and Bei Yao were left speechless, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

After the two saw Jiang Nanqiao into a taxi, their work with the student council also came to an end. Jiang Chengyu called He Ziyu and arranged to meet him at the school gate.

Once in Jiang Chengyu's car, He Ziyu inexplicably recalled Bei Yao's words to him at the entrance of the infirmary, and his ears burned.

Jiang Chengyu is indeed too innocent.

However, this pure affection was not innate, but rather a result of his excessive self-discipline.

It's so harsh it's heartbreaking.

He Ziyu bit his lip, typed a WeChat message on his phone, and sent it to Jiang Chengyu.

Jiang Chengyu, who was sitting next to him, heard his phone vibrate, opened it, and his face instantly turned red.

Can I sleep at your place tonight?
