Under the moonlight, Yu Hao and Zhou Sheng left the teacher's dormitory and walked onto the field. Zhou Sheng extended a hand towards Yu Hao and within the tranquil silence, the two of them held hands as they swung them back and forth.

"Don't wanna go back to the dorm." Zhou Sheng said.

"Then do you wanna go to the woods? Yu Hao laughed, "We'll get caught by security."

Zhou Sheng laughed too. They constantly had to be very cautious when they wanted to be intimate now; in the dormitory they were afraid of attacking Fu Liqun, and they had to be cautious of getting photographed outside. Basically, they couldn't do anything anywhere.

"I have a feeling that Kaikai really does like you." Zhou Sheng said to Yu Hao.

Yu Hao, "Ai, that's impossible. Why would he like me?"

Zhou Sheng said, "It's as if he's shaping you, didn't you notice?"

Yu Hao, "What?"

For a moment Yu Hao didn't understand what Zhou Sheng was saying. Zhou Sheng let go of Yu Hao's hand and turned around to walk backwards while facing him, "Didn't you notice? Kaikai's always teaching you things, guiding you, and shaping you into who he wants you to be."

When he said this, Zhou Sheng seemed a little disheartened.

Yu Hao vaguely understood what Zhou Sheng meant. Chen Yekai did pay very close attention to him and was aware that he was unwilling to accept material gifts. so Chen Yekai would always plan some 'coincidences' to guide him, allowing him to gain more knowledge. He was shaping Yu Hao's values and outlook on life, while also stimulating him to think more deeply.

Yu Hao said, "I intended to tell him that we're together today."

Zhou Sheng said, "You'll need to find a suitable time to tell him that yourself seriously. If only I was a bit more powerful."

Yu Hao was stunned. He suddenly understood why Zhou Sheng had been acting a bit strange recently.

"Like Kaikai?" Yu Hao asked.

"Fish, is what I want. A bear's paw, is what I want." Zhou Sheng said in a bored manner, "The two can't be attained together; sacrifice life for the sake of justice."

Yu Hao, "???"

Zhou Sheng looked up at Yu Hao and smiled a little sadly. Yu Hao didn't know why Zhou Sheng would suddenly utter these words out of nowhere.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Yu Hao's mind, as if he had vaguely guessed Zhou Sheng's tiny knot in his heart that was at a level that could only be understood but not explained. Similar occasions had occurred many times before — it seemed that after he gave Zhou Sheng his totem, and it became a part of his conscious world, he would often have occasional flashes of inspiration that create a resonance between their thoughts.

After Zhou Sheng confirmed their relationship, he wanted to work hard to take care of him and provide him the best material comforts; but once Zhou Laichun learns that his son is gay, he will definitely force them to break up. Insisting to be with Yu Hao meant that they would have to meet with Zhou Laichun's opposition in the future.

At that time, an intense conflict would erupt between Zhou Sheng and his father. On his birthday, after Zhou Sheng finished talking to his father, even without him expressing it, Yu Hao knew that Zhou Sheng had accepted the idea that Zhou Laichun's words might have sounded coarse, but the reasoning behind them wasn't.

Yu Hao said, "You want to tell your Dad? Isn't it a bit too early?"

Zhou Sheng laughed, "Early? Haven't we been together since the first day we met?"
