Chapter 1
R.an: Master, I’m going back to province P for Chinese New Year. I’m counting on you for the cats and dogs at home. I’ll bring you special products when the time comes.
Qingyun should take it to heart: [OK] I see, is there anything else to say?
R.an: ... Wishing you an early year?
There was no further reply, and Tao Ran didn't care about it anymore. Instead, he dragged a few videos he had recorded into the software, turned on the recording device, and recorded a commentary based on the content of the video—he felt that he probably didn't have enough brains. I can’t explain while playing the game, so I can only add it when editing—but the computer hangs up after recording halfway through the recording. He thinks it’s lucky that he saves it quickly, and he will buy another computer when the Chinese New Year comes back .
Restart the software and adjust the progress bar to the previous position. Sure enough, the recording I just made is gone.Probably because he has been tortured too many times, Tao Ran puffed out his cheeks and let out a long breath, and continued to do game commentary, isn't it just with a little enthusiasm?
Just as he was halfway through, the master's avatar jumped in the lower right corner with the sound of beeping, and the video he just cut hung up again. He closed the software and clicked on the button dialog box.
Qingyun should take it to heart: Didn't you go back to celebrate the New Year before?
R.an: This year is different, the year of the rooster is auspicious.
Qingyun should take it to heart: let’s not talk about the chicken.
R.an: Master, what do you want to say?
Qingyun should keep it in his heart: Civilize you and me.
R.an: ...
Qingyun should keep it in mind: Seeing your abnormal performance this year, I just made a fortune for you, so don't worry about taking money.
R.an: Master, is this the subject of your new article?
Qingyun should be kept in the heart: peach blossoms bloom without a master, lovely deep red and light red.
Tao Ran paused. He and Qing Yun met while writing novels online. Tao Ran was more popular than Qing Yun because of the subject matter.Later, I accidentally learned that Qing Yun could arrange music, and Tao Ran became interested in music, and the two got in touch with each other more. These video clips and music arrangements were basically taught by Qing Yun, which also helped him a lot in writing.
The word "Master" was called by Tao Ran as a joke. Later, Qingyun would sometimes talk to him about the three-dimensional thing, more about divination and cause and effect, and Tao Ran would also read Qingyun's novels , so the first time I thought Qingyun was a Taoist priest.
At this time, Tao Ran was still dubious about fortune-telling, until Qing Yun said too much, he was "brainwashed" and followed suit.
R.an: Are you saying that I will have good luck going back this time?Or an acquaintance?
Qingyun should keep it in his heart: I don't know.
Tao Ran smiled and asked him: Then how should I treat him?Is it rotten peach blossom?
Qingyun should keep it in his heart: the secret of heaven must not be leaked.
R.an: ...
Qingyun should be kept in the heart: a reminder, "Treasure the master's heart, wine is also deeply affectionate".
Tao Ran stared at the poem sent by Qingyun, was silent for a while, and then suddenly laughed again, feeling inexplicably looking forward to returning to his hometown this time.He sent a few more messages, but Qingyun didn't reply, probably because he was busy again.
He quit Koukou and focused on making videos, but found that he couldn't calm down, so he simply turned off the computer and packed his things.
***
Calculating the time, Tao Ran returned to P Province only a handful of times. He only went back every year on Qingming Festival and the anniversary of his parents' death. Most of the time, he didn't want to disturb his uncle.
The same is true for the Chinese New Year. I feel that I will always be a little sad when I see my uncle's family reunited for the New Year.The main reason is because... I came out in front of my uncle. Although my uncle didn't say anything, I still didn't have the courage to go back.
And when I go back once or twice a year, everyone gets along better, but this time my uncle forced him to come back, so he came back, and I didn't think too much about it.Probably because he hasn't been with others like this for a long time, he even went to ask others, which is quite funny now that he thinks about it.
Sitting on the long-distance bus back to Province P, Tao Ran was so bored that he wore headphones to listen to radio dramas, probably because the work this year was relatively easy, but unexpectedly, he picked up all his previous hobbies one by one.
At the beginning, I just wrote novels, posted videos, and sang songs. Later, I met my old classmates. I didn’t expect that the junior high school classmates who were doing radio dramas together at that time were still active in the circle, and pulled him into the circle again. Not long ago, I just agreed. Help with post-production.
The mobile phone rested on the poster of the radio drama, with a cast (list of actors) printed on it in large font, and his finger rested on the name with "R", which is a well-known CV in the middle-of-the-road circle.
When he was acting in the play, this "R" was still a newcomer, and they had acted in the same play together, but he was the male lead, and R was the soy sauce character, so in the end, they didn't know each other, it's just the voice Appeared in the same radio play.
Being pulled back into the circle, Tao Ran's first reaction was to search for "R". He was surprised when he saw the long encyclopedia of the other party. Like celebrities, even Weibo fans have hundreds of thousands of them.
Of course, he also secretly paid attention to this person with his tuba.The reason for using a large size is that he is afraid that his colleagues around him will find out his sexual orientation, and the second is that he is too lazy to use a small size.
"……I like you."
The other party's voice came from the earphones, and Tao Ran's movements stopped for an instant. At that moment, his heartbeat also stopped. It wasn't until the joyous voice of the hostess rang out that he realized that he was listening to It's not R who is confessing his love to him.
After nearly five hours of trekking, he finally arrived at N City.
After getting out of the car, Tao Ran called his cousin Tao Jing. Tao Jing was his uncle's son, 5 years older than him, and his son was already 1 year old.
"... Arrived? I'm at the KFC outside." Tao Jing said.
Tao Ran hung up the phone and dragged the suitcase there.It was inevitable for the two to exchange pleasantries when they met. They met every year, and they became acquainted again after a few words. As usual, Tao Jing advised him to find someone to settle down early, and they would feel relieved that someone would take care of Tao Ran.
Tao Ran showed a standard obedient smile and said, "I'm not in a hurry."
Tao Jing obviously couldn't hide the matter, and said mysteriously: "You are not in a hurry, my parents are in a hurry."
Tao Ran's heart skipped a beat. He thought that he had already come out with his uncle, so it was impossible for his uncle to force him to go on a blind date. Besides, he was only 20 years old this year, so he came back despite his strange enthusiasm. .
Seeing his expression, Tao Jing patted his thigh, "Hey, I forgot to tell you, just...we all know about your sexual orientation."
Tao Ran was a little dazed. He looked at Tao Jing, feeling very nervous, as if he was a rat in the gutter, and the manhole cover that was covering him was suddenly pulled away. Although everyone on the Internet seemed to be very open-minded, in fact, he Still worried about other people's strange eyes.
Tao Jing saw that his face turned pale suddenly, and felt very sad. Although he didn't have much contact with him, he still felt very distressed when he heard his parents talk about it. He quickly comforted: "Don't blame my dad, my dad At that time, I was worried that what we usually said would irritate you, so I told us in advance, and said...whether you like men or women, you are our family."
What he didn't expect was that his father was the first thing the family thought about, followed by his mother. Instead, he, a young man, was the last to figure it out. What's the difference between liking men and women?Big deal... Adopt a child for Tao Ran to raise. Anyway, the second-child policy is now open.
Because I knew it early, I forgot for a while that Tao Ran was different from their sexual orientation and was more sensitive.
Tao Ran carefully observed Tao Jing's expression without any trace, and found that there was no concern in the other's eyes, so he was relieved, but he was still holding his breath.
Tao Jing didn't know what to say, and he had never been in contact with homosexuals. He felt that Tao Ran would think too much about what he said and what he did, so he simply didn't say anything.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit weird for a while, Tao Ran focused on breaking the silence, "My cousin just said that my uncle and aunt are worried about me... the issue of being single, what's going on?"
Tao Jing scratched her head, and instead of teasing her before, she felt a little uncomfortable, and said awkwardly, "You'll know when you get there."
Tao Ran had too many thoughts in his mind for a while, and suddenly thought of what Qingyun said about his luck, he joked, "Could you introduce me to a blind date?"
Tao Jing was even more uncomfortable, he hesitated, and then knocked and listened, "I really introduced it to you, did you see it? Hey... Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't see it." Anyway, people came to the door on their own initiative.
Tao Ran resisted in his heart. He had been exposed to this circle before and found it to be very chaotic. He listened too much and had no idea about love.
He didn't refuse right away, but thought of what Qingyun said before about peach blossoms without a master, precious and heavy, and suddenly wanted to try again, what if?What if you close your eyes and fall in love with it?
He suddenly felt a little bit of anticipation in his heart, although it was somewhat different from what he had imagined—he thought that this love affair was a chance meeting or something, but... the blind date is not so bad.
Seeing Tao Jing like this, he should know a lot. He wanted to ask, but he was a little embarrassed to ask, so he held back all the way.
Tao Jing was afraid that he would be too disgusted with the blind date, so she didn't say too much.
When they arrived at the uncle's house, Tao Jing parked the car and took Tao Ran into the community. This was not much different from what Tao Ran had seen before, so he picked some topics to chat with.
After entering the room, she was warmly welcomed. Tao Jing first greeted everyone one by one.The cousin's family lived with his uncle and aunt, but it was the second time Tao Ran met his cousin's sister-in-law. The first time was at the wedding of the cousin and his sister-in-law. On the one hand, he looked indifferent to Tao Ran, and nodded distantly to Tao Ran's greetings.
Tao Jing took him to the guest room and asked him to have a good rest tonight. After his cousin left, Tao Ran put his things away first, and then collapsed on the bed, feeling a little uncomfortable, thinking that he shouldn't have come this time , he thought that he would not disturb his uncle's family if he came back once or twice a year.
When he came here before, he didn't see his sister-in-law and little nephew every time. He thought it was really a coincidence, but in fact, every time he came, he would call in advance. How could it be such a coincidence?Thinking about it now, it was probably because the cousin also knew that he was gay, and was worried that he would bring the child down.
On the way, I heard my cousin say that he doesn't mind. He was really naive enough to think that everyone would accept him without any grievances.
Of course, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. A mother would be nervous if there was a homosexual next to his son. He... was just a little hypocritical and a little uncomfortable.
