I Treat You as a Brother

it for Zou Shun, but in the process, he began to develop some feelings for Zou Shun.
After knowing about this, Zou Shun purposely distanced himself and cut contact, and he was vaguely aware of this, but couldn’t persuade himself to immediately give up, so he couldn’t help but come over to take a look.
Now that you told him that Zou Shun was doing fine, he now has a complete understanding of Zou Shun’s attitude, and feels that there is no need to meet him again and bring shame upon himself.”

He had proven himself to be someone who could come up with a forty-minute analysis from a twenty-minute episode.

The first half of his conclusion was all nonsense, but Fang Mo couldn’t help but take notice during the other half.

“Do you think he’s interested in Zou Shun?” He asked Xu Xiran.

“Our school is so big, so he most likely would not be able to meet Zou Shun by coming here so aimlessly.
If he didn’t happen to meet you, he would’ve come for nothing,” Xu Xiran said, “If he didn’t like him, would he be this impulsive?”

Although Fang Mo knew that his analyses were all wrong, Fang Mo still couldn’t help but feel excited when he heard that he had come to this conclusion through logic.

So He Chengyi most likely cared about Zou Shun.

He wanted to immediately tell this good news to Zou Shun.
But having this silly, straight man standing beside him made that inconvenient.
Fang Mo looked at Xu Xiran, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

He cleared his throat, and then asked, “Not necessarily… If I didn’t live so close to you, and you suddenly couldn’t get in contact with me one day, wouldn’t you get worried and come to find me?”

Xu Xiran was stunned for a moment, then thought about it for a while before saying: “But I wouldn’t leave as soon as I know that you’re fine.
No matter what, I would still want to meet with you and ask what’s going on.”

“You’d come and find me?” Fang Mo said, “Even if you might come for nothing, you’d still look for me?”

“Of course I would,” Xu Xiran said, “The relationship that we have, how could it be the same as theirs? Zou Shun and that man have such a big age gap, are they able to talk to each other like how we do? If someone said they were good brothers to each other, would you believe that?”

Fang Mo made no comment.

Xu Xiran seemed to suddenly have another thought, and clearly forced a smile when he spoke again: “If you need an analogy… aren’t you my wife? Of course I would come and find you.”

“……”

Xu Xiran was inexplicably pleased with himself, and smiled as he was about to say something else when he was interrupted by Fang Mo.

“Your point card, aren’t you going to hurry and find it?”

Xu Xiran woke up like he was in a trance, and hurried to the stairs.
Seeing his figure disappear around the corner, Fang Mo was just about to take out his phone to call Zou Shun, when he saw that Xu Xiran had returned.

He quickly ran back to Fang Mo and jumped in place: “Quick, quick, I’ll help you up the stairs.”

There were people in his dormitory, so it was inconvenient to talk.
After Xu Xiran had left, Fang Mo walked to the corner of the stairs with his phone, and was finally able to call Zou Shun.

The call quickly connected.

“What is it? You actually have free time to call me?” Zou Shun clearly had a teasing tone, “Are you not having dinner together?”

“He lost something, so he’s looking for it right now,” Fang Mo said, “Let me ask you, have you contacted him recently?”

Fang Mo only said “him”, but Zou Shun immediately understood who he was referring to.

The other end of the line became quiet.

Fang Mo wanted to tell him what happened just now, but instead heard Zou Shun lightly sigh.
When he spoke again, his tone was calm and unwavering.

“I blocked him,” he said.
“It feels great.
I feel so much better these days.
If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would’ve completely forgotten.”

The thing that Fang Mo originally wanted to say immediately got stuck in his throat.

Xu Xiran’s analysis was not necessarily completely correct.
At the same time, he also has a reasonable argument about all the things that were not true.

Fang Mo chose to believe a small part of it, more out of subjective hope, because he thought it would be good for Zou Shun.

But if Zou Shun had already walked out, was it necessary to mention this to him? In the case that He Chengyi really just passed by for a casual glance and didn’t meet with Zou Shun because he didn’t care that much, wouldn’t it be more harmful to pull Zou Shun back in again?

While he was hesitating, Zou Shun spoke again: “So… do you still remember the person I told you about last time?”

“Who?” Fang Mo was still dazed.

“The one with a good figure but you can’t see his face clearly,” Zou Shun’s tone began to sound cheerful again, “He asked to meet me.”

“Ah,” Fang Mo furrowed his eyebrows, “Are you going to meet him?”

“We’ve been talking a lot recently, and I have a good impression of him,” Zou Shun said, “so I think it’s not bad if I meet him.”

Fang Mo could hear from his tone that he was full of high hopes.
He ended up completely swallowing his words. 

“Mn, then you should meet him.
Be safe.”

Zou Shun suddenly laughed, “He swore to me that he’s not ugly, and told me to rest assured.”

“When are you meeting him?” Fang Mo asked.

“This weekend,” Zou Shun sighed with sorrow, “It’s really been too long, I actually feel a bit nervous.”

“Don’t worry, he’s seen your picture so he must like you if he asked you to meet.”

“That’s true,” Zou Shun said, “I’m worried that I won’t like him.
I’m pretty picky.”

Before Fang Mo could reply, someone suddenly rushed down the stairs.
As he raised his head to look, it was Xu Xiran.

Xu Xiran looked broken and wailed at Fang Mo, “What do I do, I can’t find it!”

 

 

Author’s note:

There are drafts for this story, and what you see every day is what I wrote at least a week ago, and all directions have already been established (I won’t add more)

Next, you’ll see that there will be stories of supporting characters interspersed in the plot one after another.
Because they are closely related to the main plot line, it is impossible to separate these parts into separate chapters.
If you mind this, you can skip according to the context.
(I personally think it’s quite interesting) (I can’t guarantee that everyone will find it interesting) (I’ve warned you many times! If you don’t like it, please don’t scold me!) (You don’t need to notify me if you abandon the article) (…I really think it’s quite interesting )
