In the end, Shao Mingwei rejected the interview invitation from XX company. After careful consideration, he felt that his incompetence or anxiety should not be blamed on Min Yu. Min Yu’s right. If he can’t be responsible for his own life, how can he be responsible for him? He will only let the other party bear the unease about the future.
Once the decision to enroll in graduate school is made, the rest of the process went smoothly as riding a rocket, submitting the application, confirming the list, re-examination, getting the acceptance letter, then various things about senior year come one after another.
A year flies by in a blink of an eye.
“Brother Xiao Min, where did my brother say he was waiting for us?” Shao Rong took Min Yu’s hand and walked into Q University with him.
“He said it was downstairs of the administrative building… isn’t that Mingwei?” Min Yu asked with a smile, looking at Shao Mingwei.
Shao Mingwei was about to take Liu Yang and Cheng Xiaoshen’s graduation photo. When he saw Min Yu and Shao Rong coming over, he said to Liu Yang, “You can let Rong Rong take the picture for you, ba. By the way, you can take her for a stroll around the school. I will take Min Yu away for a while.”
Liu Yang smiled mischievously. “Aiyo, what are you up to? You won’t even bring your sister. Rong Rong, don’t listen to your brother, just follow him!”
Shao Rong quickly and obediently said, “Brother, take brother Xiao Min. I’ll just follow brother Liu Yang.”
Shao Mingwei smiled and kicked Liu Yang, then touched Shao Rong’s head. “Brother will be back in a while, and we’ll take a picture when we come back.”
……
“What are you up to? So mysterious,” Min Yu asked with a smile. He followed Shao Mingwei all the way to the lecture hall. There was no one inside. It was deserted. The two walked past the rows of seats to the back of the stage.
Min Yu nodded, then Shao Mingwei walked behind him.
After a long time, there was no movement behind. Just as when Min Yu couldn’t help but want to turn back, he suddenly felt his hand being pulled, and something cold and solid slid on his finger.
He was stunned for a moment, turned to see Shao Mingwei’s smiling face, then looked at the platinum ring on his finger, and opened his mouth and said, “This is…”
However, Shao Mingwei answered the question. “Earlier, when I touched your hand, it was freezing. I couldn’t find a hand warmer or hot water bottle for a long time so I could only buy this to warm your hands. The air conditioner on the back is broken, so it’s quite cold.”
Suddenly, all the memories related to Shao Mingwei flooded Min Yu like a tide: the warm milk handed over by the other party, the considerate offering of warm babies, the handsome face and tall figure that made him fall in love at first sight… He blushed. “I won’t be cold now. I have a husband. You can find someone else to give your affection to.”
“That won’t work. I only have one wife, so I can only give him my affection.” Shao Mingwei smiled, but slowly, he restrained his smile and knelt in front of Min Yu on one knee, and took his hand that had the ring on it. He looked at him solemnly and said, “I promised before that I would buy a decent ring to propose to you, and here I am. In fact, this ring is still not good enough, but I can’t wait to put a ring on your finger, Mr. Min Yu. Would you like to marry me?”
Min Yu’s eyes were flushed. “You already gave me this. Why are you still asking?”
Shao Mingwei’s eyes were also red. He stood up and pulled Min Yu into his arms, and said softly, “Thank you.”
Min Yu buried his face in his chest, and said in a heavy nasal voice, “Why did you choose here?”
Shao Mingwei explained, “I originally wanted to choose the parking lot where I picked you up when you came to school, but there were too many people there and it was too casual.”
Min Yu looked at him and said, “But when I got out of the car and saw you, I thought, how can this boy be so handsome?”
Shao Mingwei laughed. “So you fell in love with me at first sight?”
Min Yu nodded in embarrassment.
Shao Mingwei lowered his head and kissed him, and then said while kissing, “Let’s go there right after and take a picture.”
……
“Hurry, hurry and come here.” Liu Yang waved to Shao Mingwei and Min Yu, who were walking back slowly. “You family of three, take a picture here quickly and there will be more people later.”
Shao Mingwei held Shao Rong with one hand and Min Yu with the other, and said to Liu Yang, “Take a picture of us like this.”
Liu Yang complained to his girlfriend next to him. “Before, Lao Shao was a straight man who always takes pictures. No, he has never taken pictures and has no interest at all.” He stretched out a hand and waved it in the middle. “Get closer… that’s it, okay. I’m going to take a picture, ah.”
“One, two, three!” Liu Yang was full of energy. “No, why don’t you all shout, ah!”
……
The camera freezes the photo and from the campus, the background changes to a bedroom. The afternoon sun shines through the window on Min Yu, who is beside the bed and the photo in his hand. Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he smiled and looked at the photo in his hand. He was surrounded by half-packed luggage, and it looked like he was about to move out.
Shao Mingwei leaned in the door frame. “Are you done packing?”
Min Yu raised his head, somewhat embarrassed. He smiled and said, “Not yet. I always want to stop and take a look when I saw some things.”
Shao Mingwei walked in and sat down.”It’s okay not to take these with you.”
Min Yu was unwilling. “These are all memories.”
Shao Mingwei smiled gently. “Then I’ll help you, so it can be faster.”
Min Yu asked, “Is Rong Rong ready?”
Shao Mingwei: “Not yet, she’s too slow, you don’t have to hurry.”
One year after Shao Mingwei graduated, Min Yu thought that they should live with Shao Rong. It was not a problem for the family to live in two places, but Shao Rong was still young. His condo was only enough for two people, and it was not so convenient to add a little girl, so he discussed with Shao Mingwei about moving. Later, Shao Mingwei took out the money he had saved and paid the down payment for the house together with Min Yu. He also said that he would repay the loan on his own. Min Yu didn’t need him to do so, but he was willing to spoil Shao Mingwei’s stubbornness, so what he said was what he did.
Shao Mingwei watched him tidy up carefully, and suddenly whispered, “I don’t know if the soundproofing of the house over there is good.”
“?” Min Yu looked up at him just in time to catch the flash of dark color in his eyes. He couldn’t help but laugh, then tapped his forehead with his finger. “You…”
Shao Mingwei held his finger and kissed it. “I what?”
“Nothing……”
The two chuckled together, slowly approached each other, then kissed under the warm and soft sunlight.
