Ding Xuerun was shocked. He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Lou Cheng’s voice, then turned angry and scolded: “Lou Cheng, there’s a limit to your jokes! You scared me with your immature act of pretending to be dead and lying to me…”

 

Lou Cheng hurriedly showed a pained expression on his face and murmured miserably when he realized he was truly angry. “Ouch, My head hurts. I must have hit it!”

 

“Where does it hurt?” Ding Xuerun was helpless and wanted to call an ambulance. “Stop it, it was just a little bump on the back of the head, I hit a rock when you rolled down,” Lou Cheng said, holding his wrist with a pitiful expression.

 

Ding Xuerun didn’t know whether Lou Cheng was lying or telling the truth. However, the thought that Lou Cheng would roll down the snow slope with him in his arms to protect him because of his slippery steps. Rolling down the snow hill will be painful as a result of this, and his heart is filled with helplessness.

 

Feeling helpless and moved, Ding Xuerun stared at his eyes: “Really okay?” He had forgotten that they were still lying in the snow and that Lou Cheng was far too warm, like a large stove. Ding Xuerun was on his side, leaning on his chest, and no longer felt cold.

 

“I’ll take you to the hospital,” he said as he was about to get up. Lou Cheng embraced him and rolled him around. Lou Cheng, who was laying on the ground staring at him gently: “Wait a minute, don’t get up. The love hasn’t yet been taken.” He rubbed the tip of his nose against Ding Xuerun’s.

 

“… I really want to pry into your brain and see what’s in your head,” Ding Xuerun said, wondering if he had hit the stone by accident and had an injury.

 

“You.” Lou Cheng spoke sincerely, tilted his head slightly, and kissed him on the lips gently.

 

“Don’t kiss, go to the hospital, I just smoked,” Ding Xuerun said, turning his head away from him.

 

Lou Cheng was initially silent, but after a few seconds, he became unconcerned and said, “It’s okay.”

 

“Aren’t you afraid of secondhand smoke?”

 

“…Even if I smoke second-hand smoke, it’s okay if it’s from you.” Lou Cheng leaned forward, tilted his head, and inserted the tip of his tongue into his mouth. He could taste the smoke, but he didn’t find it inconvenient. The deep kiss is both domineering and lengthy.

 

Ding Xuerun came back to his senses, or because he was thinking about going to class in his heart! They’ve been cleaning for so long that the teacher would assume there’s a problem.

 

Lou Cheng stood up and patted the snow on Ding Xuerun’s body and hair before touching his hand: “Your hand is too cold.” He said this while slipping Ding Xuerun’s hand into his pocket. At this point, a voice from the hillside said, “Which class are you two in?” What exactly are you doing sneaking around?”

 

AD

Lou Cheng was taken aback and subconsciously pushed Ding Xuerun over, turning his back on the teacher at the top of the hillside. Ding Xuerun had quickly taken his hand from Lou Cheng’s pocket and looked up to see that he was the principal.

 

The principal apparently recognized Lou Cheng, but seeing that Ding Xuerun turned his back, he becomes suspicious: “This male student, turn around.”

 

Lou Cheng thought they had been seen kissing. He wanted to put his school uniform on Ding Xuerun’s head and drag him away when he heard the principal said: “Lou Cheng, are you two smoking secretly here?” He happened to be passing by and heard someone shouting, so he climbed up to investigate.

 

Lou Cheng responded quickly, but he had played a lot before and denied loudly and flustered: “I didn’t smoke!”

 

The principal had already seen through him and snorted coldly, “You still say no! What else are you doing here?”

 

While he was talking, Ding Xuerun had already turned around.

 

The principal recognized him immediately. This…Isn’t this the one who won the IMO gold medal and IPHO silver medal—the pride of their school, student Ding Xuerun!

 

He had no doubts about Ding Xuerun and even asked, “Did you see him smoking and come to catch him? You are the one that called the teacher, right?”

AD

 

Lou Cheng: “…” 

 

It was also the first time he knew that the principal had such a big brain. Ding Xuerun turned his head and glanced at him. Just as he was about to admit that he smoked alone, not with Lou Cheng, he heard Lou Cheng respond again. “Yes, I was wrong. I smoked, he came and told me not to smoke. I don’t listen to him either.”

 

Lou Cheng said with a sad expression: “I am now reflecting on myself and torturing myself in the depths of my soul! It is wrong for me to smoke! I admit my mistake. I will undoubtedly turn over a new leaf and become a good man. I’m never going to smoke again. I’m going to slap myself if I smoke!”

 

The principal watched him sincerely admitting his mistakes and took a poisonous oath. It was too late to request that he write a review. He simply said: “Return to class. In the future, you will not be permitted to smoke in school. Don’t ever let me catch you again!”

 

Lou Cheng took Ding Xuerun and ran away.

 

“That was close, we were almost caught.” Lou Cheng was not at fault. Ordinary puppy love should not be a problem and the school can’t control him. But his partner is Ding Xuerun. First of all, Ding Xuerun is a boy, and secondly, Ding Xuerun is the asset that Liu Zhong high school constantly brags about in front of other schools. The school will almost certainly choose to expel him.

 

Lou Cheng will almost certainly not be expelled, but this could turn into a major issue.

 

AD

He picked up the broom and ran to the classroom. Ding Xuerun thanked Lou Cheng while running, saying, “Lou Cheng, don’t help me with this the next time.”

 

Lou Cheng panted as he ran, he pulled Ding Xuerun’s hand into the pocket of his school uniform: “I like to help you. Don’t worry.” Ding Xuerun is different from him. Ding Xuerun is a good student. Even though smoking does not affect him, but it will still ruin the teacher’s good impression of him.

 

Lou Cheng simply admitted it.

 

He grabbed Ding Xuerun’s palm: “Why are your hands so cold? It’s still cold no matter how you cover it.”

 

Ding Xuerun said: “I have always been like this.” He felt the sweat on Lou Cheng’s palm.

 

He insisted on taking Lou Cheng to the hospital for examinations. When he went to ask Teacher Dou for permission to leave, he explained that Lou Cheng had hit his head and was going to the hospital for an examination. Teacher Dou agreed without asking for more information. It shows his trust in Ding Xuerun.

 

Lou Cheng took Ding Xuerun’s hand cream from his pocket while they were in the taxi to the hospital. He simply entered the classroom and took it.

 

He glanced at him: “Moisture cream? Give me your hand.”

 

He grabbed Ding Xuerun’s fingertips and smeared hand cream on his palm. When he accidentally poured too much, Lou Cheng rolled up his sleeves and lowered his head to help him in smearing it thoroughly.

 

The driver was too scared to say anything and thought the two male students looked strange.

 

Following the examination, the film came out, saying that there was nothing wrong.

 

However, when Ding Xuerun reached out, he noticed that the back of the head was swollen. When he asked Lou Cheng, he said there was a little pain.

 

The doctor said: “The swelling will be relieved in the next few days.”

 

The school went on vacation after the final exam. Ding Xuerun is returning to his hometown, and Lou Cheng will attend the third exam in Beijing after the new year. He is hesitant to let Ding Xuerun go and even wishes to transfer Ding Xuerun’s father’s work here through his relationship.

 

But now that he is in his third year of high school and about to graduate, transferring Ding Xuerun’s father’s work to this city as a teacher will not help. On the contrary, it may be a disadvantage to them.

 

He had to let Ding Xuerun go, no matter how reluctant he was.

 

Ding Xuerun returned home with more gifts. When he arrived at his “new home,” he discovered that Ding Zhaowen had been promoted to the vice principal.

 

He was promoted twice in a half-year period, and the iron rice bowl that had been motionless for ten or twenty years was transformed into silver. Even he couldn’t believe how quickly he was promoted.

 

And, as a result of being promoted and assigned a new house in a neighborhood close to the school, fine decoration, and move in with only a bag.

 

Ding Zhaowen felt strange because he had no idea what was going on. Did he catch the attention of a certain leader?

 

Ding Xuerun most likely knew the reason in his heart, but he didn’t say anything about it. He simply called Lou Cheng and asked.

 

Lou Cheng said he was wronged: “It wasn’t me, maybe it was my dad. He took your dad as his in-laws! Runrun, your dad has been a Chinese teacher for so many years, a special-grade teacher, and he was an excellent teacher. He has been in the same position for 20 years. With so much experience, he should be a principal!”

 

The new house is much bigger and has a two-bedroom, but the bedroom is twice as large and soundproof. Ding Xuerun had been on the phone all day, and he spoke for a long time. No matter how stupid Ding Zhaowen was, he realized that something was wrong.

 

“Runrun, are you in love?”

 

Ding Xuerun made an inaudible sound.

 

AD

“How long have you been together? Why didn’t you tell Dad? ” Ding Zhaowen isn’t an antique, and he doesn’t mind Ding Xuerun falling in love at such a young age. Ding Xuerun is already competent and overly self-conscious in studying. Instead, falling in love is a good thing.

 

“It’s been almost a year.”

 

Ding Zhaowen was very interested in his ‘girlfriend’ and asked if there was anything he lacked. From Ding Xuerun’s tone, he understands that Ding Xuerun liked his ‘girlfriend’ very much, and it was even more in his heart. The illusion of welcoming a daughter-in-law into the family.

 

“Bring your ‘girlfriend’ home once the college entrance examination is finished. Dad wants to meet.”

 

Ding Xuerun smiled and said, “I will ask him when the time comes.”

 

Their senior year’s winter vacation is only about ten days long.  On the fourth day, Ding Xuerun flew back to school. Lou Cheng dashed to the airport to pick him up in advance. The snow in the north will always fall in the dead of winter. The Spring Festival has just ended, and the winter snow has not yet melted completely.

 

Lou Cheng drove him and asked as to his destination. Ding Xuerun said that he was going to the disabled home.

 

He basically works as a volunteer once a week and never stops. “Do you want to go once?” he asked Lou Cheng.

 

He remembered Lou Cheng had previously asked him, but he had refused, saying that those children were particularly hostile to strangers. And Lou Cheng didn’t seem to be the type of person who would assist children and the elderly in cleaning.

 

Lou Cheng glanced at him and said yes.

 

Lou Cheng abruptly changed into a suit and went downstairs in the afternoon. His brows and eyes couldn’t hide his youthful and attractive appearance, but his height and straight navy blue suit also did a great job of emphasizing his figure. The fine fabric was strong, wrapping around his long legs and tight arm muscle.

 

Lou Cheng wanted to wear a tie but didn’t know how, so the two buttons didn’t buckle, exposing his clavicle.

 

Ding Xuerun was sitting on the sofa when he noticed him appear in this fashion. He almost couldn’t speak because he was so surprised, and he just stared at him: “Why are you dressed like that?”

 

“Isn’t I’m handsome? Isn’t it cool?” Lou Cheng approached him. “Do I look like a successful person?” he asks, revealing a valuable watch on his wrist.

 

“…Like, don’t talk.”

 

Ding Xuerun didn’t understand why he suddenly dressed like this and Lou Cheng did not explain.

 

When he arrived at Sunflower Home, Dean Chen saw himself showing a warm smile, and then enthusiastically shouted: “Mr. Lou!”

 

——Ding Xuerun suddenly understood.

 

Dean Chen pulled Ding Xuerun over: “Student Ding, thank you so much. Your uncle donated a lot of money to our home and solved our big trouble.”

 

“…Uncle?”

 

“Yes, when Mr. Lou arrived the last time, he introduced himself as your uncle. When he heard what you had to say about our situation, he asked the secretary to look into it. He evaluated the house and donated a lot of things. Thank you so much, student Ding.”
