Chapter 56 School Starts

"Ah? Really?" Nie Chuan took the newspaper and took a look. It was about Reese's father James Reddington attending a charity dinner. The photo published was of him with a rosy face and his left hand on his beautiful assistant.

It seems... really good.

"Has the guy who blew up your villa been caught?"

"Yes, I caught him. He was his former assistant. He held a grudge against her after she was dumped by him."

Reese's voice was calm, as if he had anticipated this outcome.

"What? It's not because of the previous case?"

This answer was beyond Nie Chuan's expectations.

"And your mother doesn't care at all that he's with his assistant?"

"Of course not, they have been divorced for several years." Reese replied.

It seems like divorce is a common thing here.

"He has always wanted to remarry, so he always uses such childish methods to attract my mother's attention. He thinks my mother will be jealous." There was a hint of mockery in Reese's eyes.

"If you do this, your mother will be even less willing to get back together with him, right?" Nie Chuan suddenly didn't know what Reese's father was thinking.

"He thought that by pretending to be seriously injured in the explosion, he would get my mother's attention. However, my mother was in China for an exchange program and had no idea what happened to him."

Nie Chuan was even more speechless.

How come Reese's father has a child-like personality? He doesn't look like a powerful figure in the legal field at all!

"Your personality must be like your mother." Nie Chuan came to this conclusion.

"Probably." Reese turned the laptop towards Nie Chuan, "I'll book you a flight back the day after tomorrow."

"Oh, okay." Nie Chuan nodded, "I'll pay for it myself!"

"Of course you pay for it yourself. Do you think I will pay for you?"

"..." Nie Chuan was speechless.

"Let's not play ball tomorrow. Let's go to Deno's Miracle Park."

"Oh, okay!"

"That's it. Drink the milk and we'll go to bed."

Reese really went to heat milk for Nie Chuan.

That night, Nie Chuan had a very shameful dream.

He and Reese were sitting on the Ferris wheel in Miracle Park. Nie Chuan was holding an ice cream in his hand, and Reese was sitting next to him. Reese bit off the top of the ice cream and kissed Nie Chuan on the lips. He kept kissing him until he ate the whole ice cream in this way...

When Nie Chuan was shaken awake by Reese, he really felt that he was too ashamed to open his eyes.

"Hey, I told you to get up, but you still dared to frown and not open your eyes?" Reese pinched Nie Chuan's face hard.

"Ah! You pinched me!"

"I told you to pretend to sleep." Reese said with a smile.

Today was the last day that Reese and I would be together during the holiday! Nie Chuan decided to have a good time.

They came to Deno's Miracle Park. Because it was a holiday, there were still many tourists here.

Nie Chuan was watching the rotating potato rings on the snack cart with great interest, but Reese had already walked away.

He found that Nie Chuan didn't catch up, so he had to walk back with his pockets in his hands, stood beside Nie Chuan, and said coldly: "I should buy you a children's tracking watch."

"Huh? Why would you give me something like that?" Nie Chuan asked with a frown.

Is this a new way to mock him?

"This way, if you get attracted by something childish and get separated from me, I can track you by signal."

"...Okay, I won't watch it anymore. Let's go play."

"Depending on your taste, you might want to ride a merry-go-round or spin the teacups or something like that."

"Hey, how could I possibly like that kind of childish stuff!" Nie Chuan was speechless.

Reese pointed his thumb at the snack cart and said, "Isn't this something for kids?"

"…I just took a look, I didn't say I wanted to buy it."

"Then let's go on the roller coaster."

Is it such a thrilling thing to do right at the start?

Nie Chuan suddenly remembered the time when he and Zhou Bin rode the roller coaster at Happy Valley in middle school. It seemed like his neck was about to break, and the feeling of vomiting his internal organs out of his throat couldn't be better...

But Reese was serious. They came to the roller coaster together and lined up. Before getting on, Nie Chuan was already very nervous.

"If you're scared, we can go play Dumbo."

Nie Chuan turned his head and took a look at the Dumbo that young children were playing with. The adults sitting on it were mostly there to accompany the children... Nie Chuan was a little angry at Reese's stab.

"Okay, I'll go ride Dumbo and you ride the roller coaster. Bye!"

Just as Nie Chuan was about to turn around, Reese grabbed the back of his collar.

"It's rare that you're angry."

Nonsense, do you think I don’t have a temper?

"Ah, it's our turn."

Nie Chuan was dragged onto the roller coaster by Reese.

When the safety bar slowly descended, Nie Chuan's heart began to beat faster.

He grabbed both ends of the safety bar with both hands, while Reese leaned against the seat calmly and turned his head to look at Nie Chuan.

"You won't vomit it out later, will you?"

"……How can it be?"

It's really possible! Last time in Happy Valley, he and Zhou Bin vomited a lot!

"Anything is possible," Reese said coldly.

The roller coaster moved slowly, and Nie Chuan swallowed his saliva, knowing that it could speed up at any time.

When it rose to a certain height, it suddenly rushed out.

Nie Chuan closed his eyes tightly. He could hear screaming in his ears, but he was holding his breath and couldn't even shout.

Reese's voice came from the cold wind.

"Your face is all wrinkled."

This guy is still calm and composed. Can't you be afraid for a moment?

Nie Chuan only opened his eyes for a moment, and the sky and the earth turned upside down, the world changed rapidly, and his internal organs seemed to be about to fall out.

This is even more exaggerated than the last time in Happy Valley!

Why haven’t we reached the end yet?

Get to the finish line quickly!

Nie Chuan's hands were chilled by the wind.

Then something warm covered the back of his hand, and his fingers were forcefully separated and stubbornly pulled away from the safety bar.

Nie Chuan realized that it was Reese's hand. His fingers were embedded in Nie Chuan's fingers and he held them tightly.

The dizzy feeling was replaced by the touch at that moment.

Reese's fingers were so strong that Nie Chuan even felt that his finger bones would be crushed by him.

Finally, the roller coaster reached the end and the screams slowly subsided.

The safety bar was raised, Nie Chuan let out a long breath, and Reese's fingers slowly loosened.

"Ah, your face is back to normal."

Reese's cold voice brought Nie Chuan back to reality.

“My face has always been normal!”

"What a shame. I thought I could see you vomiting in the sky."

Reese stretched out his long legs, and before Nie Chuan stood up, he had already stepped over him. His walking posture was leisurely, completely different from many people who squatted down and still adjusted their direction or walked in a straight line.

Nie Chuan couldn't help feeling depressed. Reese must have practiced riding the roller coaster many times!

Nie Chuan hurriedly followed. After running two steps, he found that he did not feel dizzy, and he seemed to be walking in a straight line!

"Hey! I don't even feel like vomiting!" Nie Chuan sighed.

Reese turned around and pressed Nie Chuan's forehead: "Do you know why children are prone to motion sickness?"

"Are you trying to say that I'm a child? And I know the answer to this question." Nie Chuan waved Reese's hand away unhappily.

"Oh? What's the answer?"

"The water in the child's ear is not balanced."

"Well, so I'm really glad that your ear water has finally balanced out."

"Hey! Are you going to feel bad if you don't make fun of me every day?"

Nie Chuan really wanted to beat Reese up.

Reese put his hands in his pockets and said in a matter-of-fact tone, "Yeah."

I can’t even feel relieved after beating you up!

"Let's go and sit down and relax." Reese's hand naturally rested on Nie Chuan's shoulder.

At that moment, Nie Chuan found that he couldn't get angry at all.

What Reese called a relaxing experience really was a relaxing one, and they boarded the Ferris wheel.

Looking out from the glass, you can see the entire beach of the amusement park and the tourists sunbathing and relaxing on the beach.

Bikini beauties are so eye-catching!

Those riding the Ferris wheel are either entire families with children or couples. They are either whispering to each other or taking selfies with their mobile phones to show their affection.

On the contrary, Nie Chuan and Reese sat opposite each other, which seemed a little strange.

The glass blocked out the sounds from outside; even the screams from the roller coaster became muffled, as if they came from another world.

Reese propped up his chin and looked outside with his face tilted. He suddenly asked, "Do you have a Ferris wheel sentiment?"

"What Ferris wheel sentiment?"

"It's like kissing your lover on the Ferris wheel or watching fireworks on the Ferris wheel."

"Ah? That's something only girls have. I never thought about it..."

Nie Chuan shook his head, and then thought... maybe it was because he was too unromantic that he was always rejected by girls?

"My father proposed to my mother in the Ferris wheel. I heard that all the cabins of the Ferris wheel were filled with roses. She has always been a rational person, but she agreed to my father without a second thought. Later she said that this was the most impulsive decision she had ever made in her life."

Reese's voice was indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with him at all.

Of course, it really has nothing to do with it, because he had not yet come into this world at that time.

"But if you love someone without even the impulse, then it shouldn't be considered love, right?" Nie Chuan replied.

"What about you?" Reese looked at Nie Chuan, "What was the most impulsive thing you did when you fell in love with someone? Confess your love?"

At this time, Nie Chuan didn't feel at all that Reese was mocking him for "having been heartbroken 365 times".

He believed that Reese just wanted to talk to him in a quiet place.

"The most impulsive thing I've ever done is... I knew I couldn't confess my feelings, but I still liked him."

Nie Chuan specifically answered the other party in Chinese, blurring the distinction between "he" and "she".

"So do you still like that person?" Reese asked.

"It's a secret. I won't tell you." Nie Chuan smiled.

Reese curled his lips: "You can't keep a secret at all. You will be discovered in two days."

Then you find one and give it a try!

Nie Chuan suddenly imagined in his mind what Reese's expression would be if he really confessed to her?

"So, would you want to do these romantic things to each other on a Ferris wheel?" Reese asked casually.

Nie Chuan tilted his head and thought about it, then shook his head: "Probably not."

"Because a room full of roses is too expensive?" asked Reece.

"Of course not. Because no matter how much two people love each other, they can't live without this world. If we need a guest room to create a world for two people, what's the point? I would rather walk on the beach with the person I love, feeling the sea breeze and basking in the warm sunshine."

Reese smiled.

"Hey, what are you laughing at?" Nie Chuan nudged the other person with his leg in displeasure.

"nothing."

"Then why are you laughing?"

Nie Chuan now suffers from paranoia. Whenever Reese laughs, he can't help but suspect that the other party is laughing at him.

"Because I think what you're thinking is great. You can buy a room full of roses with money. But if you feel happy walking on the beach with the person you love, then you must be in love."

Reese's smile was very shallow, but Nie Chuan had an urge to treasure it.

They spent the whole day in the amusement park, and when they returned to Reese's apartment, Nie Chuan began to pack his things.

He counted over and over again and found that one pair of underwear seemed to be missing.

Nie Chuan went to the balcony and took a look, and found that the clothes had been taken back by Reese long ago.

"Eh? Where is my other pair of pants?" Nie Chuan opened Reese's wardrobe and found that it was folded into a square shape and pressed under Reese's underwear.

"Why were you secretly looking through my pants? I didn't realize you had such a hobby." Reese suddenly came over and tilted his head to look at Nie Chuan.

Nie Chuan was embarrassed: "It's obviously my pants that were put inside your pants!"

He also wanted to complain to Reese about stealing his pants!

"Then just put it in there. Next time you come to play and forget to bring pants, there are still some to change into." Reese laughed, "And they are very small."

I really don’t want to be friends with you anymore!

This time, Reese booked him a flight that departed at around nine in the morning, and the price was at least one-third more expensive.

Nie Chuan was lying on the bed, browsing his phone. Reese was flipping through the book his mother had left behind. He asked casually, "When we get back, we still have two weeks of vacation. What are you going to do?"

"Go work in a fast food restaurant and I'll pay you back." Nie Chuan said sullenly.

"What fast food restaurant?" Reese asked curiously.

"Pizza tycoon." Nie Chuan replied.

"Their pizza is terrible. Are you in the front register or in the back making the pizza?"

“The one in the back watching the oven.”

"It's only twelve dollars an hour, right?"

"Um……"

"Six hours a day, fourteen days and finally one thousand and eight dollars?"

"Yeah." I can finally pay you back!

"Be careful not to burn yourself."

"Got it. I'll always wear gloves. It's not like I'm frying French fries in KFC."

“Don’t steal the pizza.”

"How can it be!"

Zhou Bin said that if he smelled the smell of pizza every day, he would never want to eat pizza again.

"I'm afraid you'll be fired before you earn enough to pay me back."

Nie Chuan pulled the quilt, indicating that he didn't want to pay attention to him anymore.

The next morning, Nie Chuan was woken up by Reese. Reese fried eggs and made sandwiches for him. Thinking that this was their last morning together during the holiday, Nie Chuan felt a little lonely for some reason.

"Hey, what's with that face of yours? Is there something strange in the sandwich?" Reese tapped Nie Chuan between the eyebrows.

"Ah... I just thought I wouldn't be able to eat for a long time, should I eat slower?"

Nie Chuan felt that this was a compliment to Reese. Reese should be very happy, right?

"Do you want me to do it for you again in the future? You are so lazy." Reese shook his head.

Uh, I didn't expect to be despised.

Reese drove Nie Chuan to the airport, parked the car, and accompanied Nie Chuan through security check.

“Actually, I can go by myself.”

"I'm afraid that you're leaving from China, but you're leaving from abroad, and I don't know where you're going to."

Nie Chuan choked: "Am I that stupid?"

"Of course."

Nie Chuan felt desolate inside. He suddenly felt that if he asked Zhou Bin this question, he would get the same answer.

Reese really sent Nie Chuan to the security entrance. This was the place for hugs and farewells.

Nie Chuan really wanted to hug Reese, but Reese didn't seem to have any intention of doing so and just waved at him.

"See you at the start of school. Don't gain too much weight."

"Just two weeks! How could I get fat?" Nie Chuan said dissatisfiedly.

He queued up and passed security check, feeling a little disappointed.

But when he looked back, he saw Reese still standing there, with his hands in his pockets.

The light in the airport was so bright that Reese stood in the clearest place in Nie Chuan's field of vision.

He raised his chin towards him, signaling him to go in quickly.

Nie Chuan nodded and walked in.

Reese didn't turn around and leave until the plane took off.

He received a text message from Vivian, telling him that James had bought a new villa and invited them to have dinner together.

Reese called her back: "Is he sure the house won't suddenly blow up while we're having dinner?"

Vivian laughed, "Of course not. He has been asking me what I have been doing for more than two weeks."

"How do you answer?"

"I said you are chasing someone who is hard to chase. He immediately started to brag about how hard it was to chase my mother, but he conquered her with a whole Ferris wheel of roses."

"But now he's been dumped by his mother."

"Haha, yes. But tell me, what can really conquer another person?"

"time."

Vivian was stunned for two seconds, then said, "Why don't you bring him to dinner today? I'm curious about how James will react."

"No, I just put him on the plane."

"That's a pity. Do you have any particular urge to keep him?"

"Of course. I want to hug him tight. But once I hug him, I'll want to kiss him. And then he'll be scared."

At this time, Nie Chuan was sleeping soundly on the plane with his head tilted.

After returning, he actually went to the pizza shop to bake pizza.

Every time after get off work, I go to the community basketball court to play basketball with Mark and others, and time passes very quickly.

When he had saved up a thousand dollars, he proudly transferred it all back to Reese in one lump sum.

Soon, he received a reply from Reese: Do you want me to continue lending you the money?

Nie Chuan: I don’t need it!

Reese: That's a shame, I enjoy being a creditor.

Nie Chuan suddenly didn't know what to say in reply.

This semester has finally started.

Nie Chuan was very excited, because not only could he meet Reese, but October also meant the league was about to begin.

When Nie Chuan dragged his luggage back to the dormitory, Reese had not yet arrived. He enthusiastically cleaned Reese's bookcase, bedside table and wardrobe carefully.

Nie Chuan felt that he had never been so clean in his life.

We haven't seen each other for more than two weeks. I wonder how Reese is doing now?

Ouch…it’s only been two weeks since we last met, Reese is of course still the same…

Just as Nie Chuan was making the bed, the door of the dormitory opened, and the sound of a suitcase being dragged in made Nie Chuan forget the past.

The moment he saw Reese, Nie Chuan's sight seemed to be frozen.

Reese's hair was cut much shorter, making him look neater and his facial features more three-dimensional.

His eyes were naturally deep, and this simple hairstyle made the contours of his eyes even more distinct.

The whole person exudes a certain elite temperament.

"Hey, what are you looking at?" Reese snapped his fingers, glanced past Nie Chuan, and walked towards his closet.

"Oh, your new hairstyle is very nice!" Nie Chuan quickly said something nice.

"I cut it myself."

"Really! That's amazing! Give me one too!"

Although they had the same hairstyle, Nie Chuan felt that he couldn't pull it off at all. Reese looked tall and classy, ​​while he might look quite rustic.

"You actually believe that I cut it myself? Then how can I cut my own back?" Reese turned his head and looked at Nie Chuan, "It seems that your IQ has not improved at all in the past two weeks."

“…”

Nie Chuan is heartbroken. We finally meet in the new semester. Can you please be nicer to me?

When Reese made the bed, Nie Chuan was still struggling with his quilt.

Reese was just watching from the side, and had no intention of coming over to help. He seemed to enjoy the fact that Nie Chuan was more clumsy than him.

After a lot of effort, the quilt was finally put on. Reese came over and raised his hand to pinch the ends of Nie Chuan's hair.

"Well, it's time to cut it."

"Haha, yeah, the bangs are a bit long."

"I'll help you cut it later."

"What?" Nie Chuan opened his eyes wide, "Can you cut hair?"

“I only know one hairstyle.”

"What hairstyle?"

"Bald."

"I don't want it! I'll go to the barber shop and cut it myself!"

Although the barber shop outside the school is not very good, there is no problem with a flat head!

"You don't believe in my level?" Reese raised his eyebrows, making Nie Chuan unable to tell whether he was teasing him again or was serious.

"Then I'll cut it for you..."

Nie Chuan cried in his heart. If it was really ugly, the worst that could happen was to shave his head bald.
