meet

Lin Shen stood in front of the french window on the third floor of the library, staring out at the falling ginkgo leaves. The deep autumn sunshine shone through the glass on his profile, casting a shadow under his slender eyelashes.

He habitually touched the hearing aid behind his ear to confirm that it was still working properly. He has been doing this action for over a decade, and since he was diagnosed with hearing impairment at the age of six, hearing aids have become a part of his body.

There were faint footsteps coming from between the bookshelves, and Lin Shen instinctively made way to the side. He is not used to being too close to people, especially in quiet places like libraries. But the footsteps stopped beside him.

Do you also like this book

A clear male voice sounded in his ear, and Lin Shen turned his head to meet a pair of smiling eyes. That is a boy wearing a white hoodie, half a head taller than him, holding a book called 'The Art of Architecture' - the very book he was reading just now.

I... I was just taking a casual look, "Lin Shen took a step back, his ears burning slightly. He is not very good at talking to strangers, especially such dazzling people. The other person has a sunny temperament that makes him feel like a snail hiding in the shadows.

I'm Gu Yang from the Department of Architecture, "the boy smiled and reached out his hand." You often come to the library, are you from the Department of Computer Science

Lin Shen was stunned for a moment, not expecting the other party to notice him. He nodded and hesitated for a moment before taking Gu Yang's hand: 'Lin Shen.'

Gu Yang's hands were very warm, and the palms were a bit rough, like calluses left by frequently holding a pen. Lin Shen wanted to withdraw his hand, but was gently held by the other person.

Your hands are so cold, "Gu Yang said, taking out a pack of warm babies from his pocket." Here you go, the air conditioning in the library is too cold

Lin Shen looked at the warm baby in his palm and didn't know what to say for a moment. He looked up at Gu Yang and noticed that the other party was staring at him intently, with a gentle gaze that made his heart skip a beat.

Do you want to go have a cup of hot chocolate together? "Gu Yang pointed out the window." I know there's a good shop at the back door of the school

Lin Shen subconsciously wanted to refuse, he was used to being alone. But for some reason, looking at Gu Yang's expectant gaze, he nodded inexplicably.

Gu Yang's eyes lit up suddenly, as if filled with stars. He helped Lin Shen pack his good book bag and carefully tidied up his scarf. Lin Shen smelled the faint scent of cedar on his body, mixed with the old fragrance of books in the library, which inexplicably made people feel at ease.

As he walked out of the library, a cold wind blew and Lin Shen shrank his neck. Gu Yang immediately walked over to his side and blocked the wind for him. This small gesture warmed Lin Shen's heart. He secretly glanced at Gu Yang and noticed that he was humming a song and in a good mood.

The hot chocolate shop is small, but very cozy. Gu Yang skillfully found a window seat and helped Lin Shen open the chair. When the hot chocolate was served, Lin Shen found a small flower of creamy latte art in his cup.

This is the specialty of the store, "Gu Yang said with a smile." Every time you come, there will be different small surprises

Lin Shen held the warm cup and felt his whole body warm up. He drank in small sips, listening to Gu Yang's funny stories about making architectural models, and was occasionally amused to the point of laughing out loud.

By the way, "Gu Yang suddenly leaned in," our department has an exhibition of works next weekend. Would you like to come and see it? I can be your guide

Lin Shen looked at Gu Yang's face, which was close at hand, and suddenly felt a little flustered. He lowered his head and pretended to focus on stirring the hot chocolate in his cup, saying, "Okay... okay

That's settled then! "Gu Yang said happily," I'll come pick you up then

Lin Shen nodded and felt his ears starting to burn again. He secretly glanced at Gu Yang and noticed that he was looking at him with his chin propped up, his gaze so gentle that it made his heart tremble.

At this moment, Lin Shen suddenly realized that his peaceful life might be changed because of this person named Gu Yang.
