On New Year’s Eve, Lin Moyan and his family sat in the living room to watch the new year’s program after dinner. Once the countdown reached zero, the firecrackers were set off with a loud bang and the new year was ushered in. After watching the celebrations streamed on the television, they retreated to their respective rooms to rest.

As soon as he stepped into his room, Lin Moyan heard his phone ringing non-stop. After looking at the caller ID, he answered the phone without a change in expression.

Before he could greet the other person, a voice mixed with inexplicable excitement came over, “Baby! Happy New Year! I am the first to give you New Year greetings! Right?”

“Not at all.”

Lin Moyan couldn’t help raising the corners of his lips. Hearing Fang Yu’s enthusiastic voice, there was a slight smile in Lin Moyan’s eyes.

Lin Moyan had to admit that Fang Yu’s phone call could drag him out of his gloomy mood every night. It was as if Fang Yu’s voice had the ability to cheer him up and allow him to temporarily forget his worries.

Fang Yu on the other side was stunned after hearing Lin Moyan’s joking words. He didn’t realize what Lin Moyan had said. A few seconds later, he finally realised that Lin Moyan had been joking. He laughed and said, “Baby, you are becoming cuter and cuter in my eyes ah. You have started learning how to cheat others..haha..but I like it!”

Lin Moyan’s ears and face suddenly felt hot. He hurriedly changed the hand holding the phone and placed the phone in the other ear. After listening to Fang Yu’s words, he neither refuted nor acknowledged his words and kept silent.

Fang Yu didn’t care and continued to speak on his own. “Baby, I like you more and more, what should I do? I think about you every day, that time when we were in class but you didn’t dare to laugh. The way you spit on the dish that time, thinking about the way you refused to let me go when you were sick…” He paused, chuckled, and his voice softened, “I miss the kiss you gave me that day….”

Lin Moyan’s heartbeat accelerated and he felt his heart swell up. It’s not that Lin Moyan hadn’t thought about the kiss he gave Fang Yu,

but the incident was too short and he didn’t attach a lot of importance to it.

Fang Yu’s voice was slow and soft, with a lingering affection hidden in the depths of his voice. In contrast with the loud firecrackers outside, his voice stood out even more in Lin Moyan’s ears and stimulated his heart. Although the voice was low, the words were printed deeply on Lin Moyan’s heart, “Baby, I really want to fly over to stay with you and never leave.”

After saying this, Fang Yu paused for a moment, but Lin Moyan remained silent. He could only hear the other person’s shallow breathing mixed in with the sound of the firecrackers. “Baby, do you… miss me?” Fang Yu’s words were barely audible. There was a bit of hesitation, a bit of apprehension, and a bit of anticipation. Several feelings were intertwined in his voice. His confidence had been completely replaced, leaving behind only anxiety and a slight expectation.

The loud but lifeless family dinner made Fang Yu feel cold and lonely. He was eager to get some warmth in his heart and did not consider whether it was appropriate to ask such a question now. When Fang Yu finished speaking, he didn’t rush to speak again, waiting with bated breath for Lin Moyan’s answer.

He held his breath for fear of missing even a word from the other party. The hand holding the phone tightened nervously and his palm was slightly wet. The other hand in his trouser pocket was also clenched tightly. The whole person was like a child who had just confessed and was waiting for the other party’s response.

Lin Moyan, who heard Fang Yu’s question, had difficulty responding for a while. Fang Yu had always been unilaterally saying that he missed him. He had long been used to just listening and never answering. The other party had also never asked him such a question. Both of them had avoided asking such questions. But today Fang Yu unexpectedly threw this question to him. He wanted to pretend that he didn’t hear him and waited for the other party to change the subject, but there was nothing else from the phone except the sound of “zizi” electric current and the crackling of firecrackers.

He wanted to change the subject himself and he opened his lips several times, but still couldn’t utter a word. In the end, there was only a sigh. Then he spoke one word, “En.”

This simple word that even a child could utter had a great and extraordinary meaning to these two people.

Fang Yu didn’t know how long he waited. He only felt that every moment of silence was suffocating him. The expectation that rose in his heart was stomped on and obliterated by Lin Moyan’s lack of response, leaving behind only an empty feeling in his heart. He was almost unable to bear it. He was even about to say, “I was joking just now” to erase the awkward silence and to return to normal.

The heart that had fallen to the ground was once again lifted by Lin Moyan’s single word. Fang Yu could no longer restrain the corners of his mouth rising and his eyes turned slightly sour.

Lin Moyan was startled by his own response. He had never thought of interacting with Fang Yu like this. The relationship between them was not harmonious from the beginning and the two go them had gone head-to-head. As time passed, their relationship only worsened and became even more rigid. But this kind of relationship that should have deteriorated further and further had only come to where it is today because of Fang Yu’s confession.

Lin Moyan was slightly at a loss, but he realised that he didn’t regret it at all. Instead, after admitting it, his mind was filled with a sense of peace.

“Baby, I will love you for the rest of my life.”

Fang Yu’s voice came from the other end of the phone once again clearly, striking Lin Moyan’s agitated heart.

This time, Lin Moyan continued his usual style of listening to Fang Yu without responding at all. Fang Yu also understood that he could not take the mile after being given an inch so he continued talking about trivial things and the words of affection that he never got tired of repeating.

T/N: Hello everyone, it’s been a few months since I started this project and I will most likely continue translating once this project is over. I do put in a lot of effort when TL-ing and editing but I would like to push myself to create even better translations and hope that you guys can give me some feedback on my translations. Thank you very much!
