He has been loved in the open for twenty years, and he has hidden his entire youth in the dark.
Slow and sunny, attacked by x, paranoid and affectionate, cousins in orthopedics, daily sweet articles, Wen Yanci has a secret, which he has hidden for eight years.
No one knows that since he was twelve years old, he has only looked at one person. No one knows that his mobile phone contains every message sent by that person, and the screenshots are arranged by year.
No one knows that the silver chain around his neck has "0126" hanging on it, which is that person's birthday.
No one knew that when he filled out his application for the college entrance examination, chose an internship in college, and looked for a job after graduation, there was only one reason for all his choices: to be closer to him.
That man's name was Song Yushi, and he was his cousin.
In Song Yushi's eyes, Wen Yanci was just the expression who had been clinging to him since childhood.
My brother's eyes would be red for a badge, he would bring him supper when he worked overtime until late at night, and he would quietly sit next to him at family dinners.
That's all.
Until late at night when he was working overtime, Wen Yanci pressed him against the back of the chair, his silver chain hanging down, and his breathing intertwined.
"Brother," he said, "I've endured this for too long."
Song Yucai finally saw clearly what was in those eyes - not dependence, not brotherhood, but love engraved in his bones that had been hidden for eight years. When the slow cousin finally gets the message, when the eight-year secret love finally comes out, the difference between them is never four years, but the word "dare".
Intention: Time is long, love is the only answer.
