The man in front of him turned around and waited for him to come.

Shen Fengyue ran towards the person, and as the distance shortened, he could clearly see the person's appearance. It was Qin Yuan.

Qin Yuan looked puzzled. He was very confused as to why Shen Fengyue had to run wildly at night while sweating profusely, and panicking as if he had encountered something dangerous.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

Shen Fengyue stopped and waved his hand to indicate to Qin Yuan that he couldn't answer his question at the moment, the gesture was followed by a couple of quick coughs.

"Cough cough cough." Although the help from the system turned out well, it still broke the limit of his body. Now that the plug-in disappeared, he had suddenly stopped and his body was naturally overwhelmed.

"Cough, let me lean on you for a bit." Shen Fengyue leaned against Qin Yuan while coughing and trying to regulate his breathing.

It took a long time for him to finally calm down and have the strength to stand firm. He patted Qin Yuan on the shoulder to thank him.

"What's wrong, Brother Yan?" Qin Yuan looked at him nervously.

Shen Fengyue took out a tissue from his pocket to wipe his sweat, his handsome face was pale and slightly haggard. He sighed, looked back at the dark alley, and said, "Someone was following me."

"Someone was following you?!" Qin Yuan exclaimed, "Who? Yan, Brother Yan, did you see who it was?"

Shen Fengyue shook his head and suddenly remembered something. He pulled Qin Yuan's sleeves, "Let's go first, it's dangerous here, let's talk as we walk."

"Mm, ok, ok."

Shen Fengyue, "Do you remember the day we were taken to the police station for investigation?"

Qin Yuan nodded.

"I had received a love letter from the murderer." Shen Fengyue paused and looked over at Qin Yuan, "It was the love letter you handed to me for him."

Qin Yuan took in a breath of cold air and grabbed Shen Fengyue's clothes on his own initiative, tightening his hold until his knuckles turned white.

Shen Fengyue sighed, "I understand how you must be feeling right now. You may have been in contact with the murderer, but it doesn't matter. You're still pretty safe now because the murderer is targeting me."

"Brother Yan?" When Qin Yuan heard that Shen Fengyue was being targeted, he was more nervous than when he was told that he was being targeted.

Scared of having frightened the child, Shen Fengyue slowed down, rubbed Qin Yuan's head, and straight-up muddied the situation "Don't worry, the police will keep me safe."

"Ok."

"It's dangerous to be around me right now, so I'm afraid I won't be able to go home with you in the future."

Qin Yuan was unwilling, shaking his head, he said, "I don't want to, don't want to be separated from you!"

Seeming to have plucked up the courage, he plunged into Shen Fengyue's arms, hugged him tightly, and said loudly, "No matter what, no matter how, we will never part!"

Shen Fengyue was taken aback, he separated him from himself while laughing and comforted, "Be obedient. This is for your own safety."

Qin Yuan understood that he was thinking for his sake and nodded to show that he would be obedient.

He lowered his head and smiled in satisfaction while his eyebrows relaxed.

His lips closed silently,

"Hehe."

"He cares about me."

"He cares about me."

"He does care about me!"

"Hehehe." The smile on the corner of his lips gradually expanded.

Shen Fengyue didn't notice Qin Yuan's strangeness, and continued to ask him, "It's so late, why are you here?"

Qin Yuan's expression suddenly changed. He raised his head and replied, "To buy-buy things."

There happened to be a supermarket in front of them with the lights on, indicating that it was open 24 hours. Shen Fengyue lifted his chin and motioned to him, "There's a supermarket in front of you. Go buy, I'll wait for you outside."

Qin Yuan left according to what he said, and Shen Fengyue was waiting for him outside.

Shen Fengyue had a watch on his wrist, as the hands of the watch were ticking, he raised his wrist to see the time, it was 10 p.m.

Unexpectedly, he had been in the alley for a long time. Shen Fengyue was pacing outside the supermarket, and the cold night wind made him get goosebumps. Qin Yuan was still buying things, so he simply chatted with the system.

The system was showing its power, "How was it, surprising or not, exciting or not, are you moved? Aren't I very reliable?"

Shen Fengyue, "…" Tsk, the words he wanted to say to thank him were magically swallowed back down his throat.

Shen Fengyue put his arms around his chest and watched the system start its performance as a demon.

"I told you, it was dangerous just now! If I hadn't helped you, you might've been dead!"

He didn't expect a bunch of data to be so noisy.

"I've helped you a lot this time, I'm definitely going to receive a large bonus!" As if the fire wasn't hot enough, he added another handful of firewood. "I really hope that this kind of opportunity can come more often! Shen Fengyue, I can rely on you to make a fortune and marry a good wife. Work hard boy, I am very optimistic about you!"

"…"

Finally, the system remembered something and added, "Aren't you going to say thank you to me?"

"…"

He was a civilized person and couldn't be bothered with a bunch of data.

After a long while, Shen Fengyue gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you, thank you, ah." Every word was fully stressed.

Only then did the system withdraw satisfactorily.

After the matter was brushed off, he was still immersed in his merit and fame.

Shen Fengyue was fortunate that the system had disappeared at this time, otherwise, he really couldn't control the urge to hit him by himself.

At this time, Qin Yuan came out after shopping. Shen Fengyue saw that he was holding a large bag of daily necessities in his left hand and a cup of milk tea in his other hand, which he handed to him upon seeing him.

"It's cold outside, have something warm."

Shen Fengyue took it and found that it was hot. Thanking him for his thoughtfulness, he smiled towards Qin Yuan, "It's okay, thanks."

Seeing that he had already finished buying, Shen Fengyue signaled that they should go their separate ways, "Then you go back soon, I'm going back too, it's been very dangerous lately, don't come out at night."

Qin Yuan nodded and saw Shen Fengyue turn around to leave. After holding back a bit, he couldn't help but stop him.

Shen Fengyue looked back.

"Can, can you sleep with me?" he proposed.

To be honest, Shen Fengyue was already wimped out after the ordeal just now and was probably going to have a nightmare when he went back at night. Qin Yuan's proposal was simply too good for him. But still, he wanted to confirm it again.

"May I?"

Seeing that the plan was feasible, Qin Yuan brightened his eyes and said with joy, "Yes."

Shen Fengyue thought for a while and felt that it could work. It just so happened that Qin Yuan's house was quite close to here.

Unscrewing the milk tea cover, he took a sip and was suddenly choked by the system's unexpected interruption.

"You guys are so gay."

"…"

Qin Yuan was immersed in the joy of being able to sleep in the same bed with Shen Fengyue and was brought out of his daze by him. When he raised his eyes, he saw Shen Fengyue shaking his head, and he continued to lead the way excitedly.

Qin Yuan's house was indeed very close by, they arrived in a few minutes, but it was very dark, the lights nearby were broken, and the short distance was completely black.

It was so dark that he couldn't help but remember the incident where he had just been followed in the alley.

Shen Fengyue stood in front of the unit door and stopped. Qin Yuan stepped through the unit door first, went up several stairs, then stopped after he discovered that Shen Fengyue wasn't following him.

"What happened?"

Shen Fengyue's throat moved without making a sound.

"What's wrong?"

The question was a little loud, slightly echoing, the sound filled the entire corridor.

He didn't know if it was just his imagination, but he had a feeling that a monster was hiding in the shadows, in the corridor covered by darkness. Pushing aside the darkness, a pair of amazingly bright eyes could be seen.

Hehe.

He was like a lamb who had strayed into the mouth of a tiger without knowing. It was as if he walked into this darkness, he would be thrown over by a hidden monster, his neck would be torn apart, blood gurgling out, as the monster would bury his head between his neck, drinking a feast.

Hehe.

The monster couldn't wait to break out, it tore through the darkness and walked out, revealing its figure in the moonlight

——Bangs long enough to cover the eyes, the school uniform that was washed to the point of whiteness, the slightly hunched stance with a gloomy demeanor.

It was Qin Yuan, whose figure appeared from the darkness under the moonlight.

He seemed to have come out to confirm his situation because he hadn't received Shen Fengyue's response for a long time.

When Shen Fengyue saw that it was Qin Yuan, he sighed and took back the urge to flee. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, shaking off the terrifying associations. What had he just been thinking? He actually thought Qin Yuan was a monster. He must have been really frightened by everything that had happened in the alley.

"I'm fine, it's just too dark to see and I'm not used to it…" Before he could say anything, Qin Yuan took Shen Fengyue's hand and pulled him into the darkness.

"I-I'll take you with me."

"Thanks."

Qin Yuan clasped his hands with Shen Fengyue's.

"Hehe."

"Huh? Did you just laugh?"

"No, no."

"Oh, that might be because I heard it wrong. Go ahead, I'm a bit afraid of the dark." Shen Fengyue felt that the strange laugh just now made him feel goosebumps, he couldn't help but urge Qin Yuan to go faster.

"Good."

With a "click", the door was unlocked. Hearing this sound, Shen Fengyue felt relieved that they have finally arrived.

Qin Yuan entered the house, considering Shen Fengyue's fear of the dark, he first turned on the light in the living room. The sudden light irritated his eyes, and the physiological saline ran down the corners of his eyes. He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and blinked a few times before he was able to adapt to the bright lighting.

"Brother Yan, do you want to wash first?" Qin Yuan brought him a pair of slippers and asked him to change his shoes.

Shen Fengyue put on the slippers, shook his head, and said, "No, you go first."

Qin Yuan hummed and went into the bathroom. Shen Fengyue sat on the sofa and looked around the whole house while Qin Yuan washed up.

The house wasn't too large, one bedroom, one living room, and one bathroom. The furnishings were simple, and although the furniture was a bit old, it was very clean. It can be seen that the owner was a diligent and clean person.

It seemed that there was no one else in this house except Qin Yuan. Does he live alone?

Forget it, it's better not to explore the privacy of others.

Shen Fengyue drank the milk tea in one gulp, the warm liquid seeped into his cold body, dispelling the chill, and eliminating the fear brought to him tonight.

After a while, Qin Yuan finished washing up, Shen Fengyue went in and took a quick shower, washing away his exhaustion and worry, he entered Qin Yuan's room afterward.

The room was very small with only one bed, a black quilt was neatly folded on the bed. Qin Yuan stood by the bed and noticed a problem. When he saw him coming, he said, "Brother Yan, there's only, only one bed."

Shen Fengyue nodded, then sat down on the bed, opened the quilt, and covered it flatly over his body. Seeing that Qin Yuan was still standing motionlessly in front of the bed, he patted the other side, "Come here, if there's just one, we can just squeeze onto it."

Qin Yuan fiddled his hands nervously, fearing that Shen Fengyue would be anxious, he finally squeezed onto the bed. After turning off the light, he was a little excited. He wanted to talk to Shen Fengyue, but found that the person on the other pillow was already asleep.

Shen Fengyue was exhausted, and what happened tonight was too stimulating that he fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.

Qin Yuan was a little disappointed, but he was very excited when he thought about sharing the bed with Shen Fengyue.

He tucked the quilt in for Shen Fengyue and turned sideways to face him. His expression changed into another person the next second.

He got up gently and opened the curtains to let the moonlight in.

The moonlight came in through the gap between the curtains as he tenderly kissed Shen Fengyue's face. He kissed his long curly eyelashes, his straight nose, his slightly raised lips, and the raised adam's apple on his straight neck.

It could be said that when Shen Fengyue is awake he is always radiant, agile, and vivid in his every move, while when asleep, he was like a quiet and beautiful painting.

His angelic sleeping face was very beautiful.

Qin Yuan lying on the side of the bed stared straight at him. He couldn't help but laugh softly when he watched him. He stretched out his index finger to his lip, almost obsessed.

"Hehehe, you are mine."

"You belong to Me."

The next day, Shen Fengyue and Qin Yuan arrived at the school together. There was nothing special going on, but when he returned from gym class, he received a third love letter.

He opened it with shaking hands, only to see it read:

[ I've come to follow in your footsteps. ]

In the end, there was one more sentence:

[ Do you like roses? ]

Shen Fengyue's hand shook and the love letter fell onto the table.

Do you like…

… Roses?
