Nyoi-Bo Studio

  Nyoi-Bo Studio

  The villa below Fengyi Mountain.

  After training, Fu Tingyan suggested, “How about having a barbecue tonight?”


  Bo Ye looked up and said calmly, “I don’t have any objections.”


  Jiang Yu was in a good mood. “Barbecue with beer. A good combination.”


  They were nineteen, all legal adults now, so Ye Huang lifted the alcohol prohibition.

  “Then barbecue with beer.” Fu Tingyan asked the guards in the villa to prepare the ingredients for the barbecue.

  There was plenty of beer and wine in the villa.

  Ye Huang had always satisfied them with these things, especially in terms of food. He always provided the best.

  The guards were very efficient. After an hour and a half, they had all the ingredients and seasonings that Fu Tingyan needed.

  It was not the first time they had a barbecue. After a few times of experience, they cooked with ease.

  When the meat was cooked, they sprinkled seasonings on it. The alluring smell quickly spread, and they could not help but swallow their saliva.

  The three of them surrounded the barbecue table, eating meat and drinking wine.

  Three years had made their relationship close. Although Bo Ye looked a little cold, he was very loyal to his friends.

  Jiang Yu took a sip of beer and said, “Uncle Ye said that in another year, we can go down the mountain. It feels like time has passed too quickly. We’ve been on the mountain for already three years.”


  In these three years, their martial art strength had increased by leaps and bounds. They had already broken through to Gold level.

  In another year, they would break through to Platinum level.

  Fu Tingyan felt that his speed was still too slow. His brother had only used three years to reach the peak level.

  Jiang Yu saw that he was holding his wine glass and didn’t say anything. “Tingyan, why aren’t you saying anything?”


  Bo Ye turned his head to look at him.

  Fu Tingyan glanced at Jiang Yu and Bo Ye in front of him and smiled. “My brother went to Qi Mountain to train. In just three years, he reached the peak level.”


  Hearing his words, Jiang Yu and Bo Ye were both stunned. There was such a big difference between people?

  Could this be the difference between having talent and not having talent?

  Seeing Jiang Yu and Bo Ye’s shocked expressions, Fu Tingyan smiled and said, “Don’t be discouraged. My brother had been praised for his talent since he was young, and he started earlier than us. So it’s not bad to be able to reach and get over the Platinum level.”


  Although he said this, he was still a little discouraged in his heart.

  After eating the barbecue, the three of them went to the rooftop of the villa.

  It was summer, and the stars in the night sky were exceptionally bright.

  The three of them lay side by side on the roof, their heads resting on their hands as they looked at the night sky above them.

  Perhaps it was because they knew that they would be able to return in almost a year, so they were a little excited.

  Jiang Yu tilted his head and looked at Fu Tingyan. “What is the first thing you want to do when you go back?”


  Fu Tingyan said, “Help my brother. It’s such a big family business, and my brother is carrying it all by himself. It must be tiring.”


  At the mention of their brother, Bo Ye thought of Bo Yin, who had been protecting her since she was young. “I’ll go back and help my brother too.”


  Fu Tingyan tilted his head and glanced at Bo Ye. Under the night sky, he could only see Bo Ye’s rough outline. Because he was too familiar with Bo Ye, his face would automatically appear in front of him. For some reason, he felt that there was something off with Bo Ye’s brother.

  As for Jiang Yu, who did not have a brother, he was very envious of Fu Tingyan and Bo Ye, who had a brother. He said, “Both of you are going back to your older brothers. I don’t have an older brother, but when I go back, I will enter the company to learn from my father. However, the first thing I will do is to look for Ye Xue.”


  Fu Tingyan was quite curious. “Why do you have to wait until you go back to look for her? Can’t you look for her now?”


  Jiang Yu thought for a while, he said, “When I was dating Ye Xue, I was only 17 years old. At 17 years old, I didn’t know anything about relationships. I don’t know if it was just a momentary novelty of being in a relationship that I just happened to meet her and she liked me, so I chose to date her. When I dated her, I didn’t know if it was because of puberty or something else, I liked her very much. I was afraid that my emotions for her were just an impulse. After it passed, I would fall in love with someone else again.”


  Fu Tingyan was silent when he heard that. Jiang Yu was right. What could 17-year-olds, like them back then, understand?

  After being together with Bo Ye for more than three years, Fu Tingyan was very sure that he was gay.

  Bo Ye listened quietly. She did not understand the feelings of being in relationships. Bo Yin said that he liked her.

  Fu Tingyan also said that he liked her, even when she was a “boy”.

  Jiang Yu continued, “That night, you said that you would leave the next day. I thought about it for the whole night and decided to follow you. I wanted to at least understand one thing. Before I left, I didn’t know how to tell Ye Xue. I wanted her to wait for me. But I was afraid that if I make her wait, as time passed, I might make her wait for nothing and waste her time.”


  This was the first time Fu Tingyan heard Jiang Yu talk about this matter. At that time, he also wondered since Jiang Yu and Ye Xue were in the midst of a passionate relationship, how could they bear to separate?

  “Then, have you figured it out now?”


  “Three years is enough.”


  When he first went up the mountain, he missed Ye Xue so much that he couldn’t sleep at night.

  He thought that perhaps it was because he was used to having her by his side and was suddenly separated. For a moment, he wasn’t used to it, so he endured and didn’t contact her.

  After a year of settling down, he hid his missing in his heart.

  During the three years, he didn’t forget Ye Xue. Instead, her appearance was constantly in his mind. He didn’t need to think about it deliberately, and it would appear.

  Although he did not mention it, he knew that he still liked Ye Xue. He had never stopped.

  Fu Tingyan asked, “Since you know, why don’t you contact her now?”


  Jiang Yu said, “Three years have passed. One more year is not a problem.”


  “Then aren’t you afraid that Ye Xue will be snatched away? The year I went back, I found that she had become more beautiful and had changed a lot. In the Imperial City, quite a few people are chasing after her, aren’t there?” Fu Tingyan reminded him jokingly.

  Jiang Yu was stunned. He had indeed never considered this question.

  At first, he was happy that he had already confirmed his feelings for Ye Xue.

  But now, because of Fu Tingyan’s words, he became nervous and uneasy again.

  He did not dare to think further.

  After returning to his room, Jiang Yu lay on the bed after shower. He tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

  He took out his phone and habitually took a look at his moments.

  His moments were filled with people he knew, but there weren’t many of them.

  He casually flipped through them and saw Ye Xue’s updates. He was a little excited.

  This was the first time in three years that he had seen Ye Xue’s updates.

  A photo of holding hands and a short sentence.

  “Thank you for your company.”


  There was also a heart emoji next to it.

  He was stunned and stared at the photo.

  He was trying to persuade himself that Ye Xue must have taken the photo with a female classmate who must be a good friend of her.

  Many girls also took pictures of holding hands with their best friends and posted them on WeChat moments.

  Ye Xue’s skin was very fair. Her hands were a little chubby, so he could recognize at a glance.

  However, that hand was bigger than Ye Xue’s hand. When she held it, the color of that person’s skin was darker than Ye Xue’s.

  It was as if his heart had stopped beating. He had never been so afraid.

  He was afraid that his loved ones would be snatched away by someone else.
