After the Jin Ying awards, Shen Huai became even more busier. His several appointments with Ye Cang were called off because of his work.

Although Ye Cang expressed his understanding, Shen Huai was still haunted by the thought that they had been together for such a long time, but had a little chance to go out to play, so he decided they would go to the seaside for a holiday.

Shen Huai had a private island under his name. If he wanted to stay in a quiet place for a while, he often chose to go to this island for a vacation. As he and Ye Cang were famous now, it was not suitable for them to go to places with many people. Shen Huai borrowed his uncle’s private plane and prepared for a week’s trip.

Shen Huai didn’t plan to surprise him, so he directly told Ye Cang about it.

Ye Cang’s reaction was unexpectedly dull, which surprised Shen Huai. After all, Ye Cang was very excited when he talked about traveling before. Shen Huai only thought that he had broken his appointment too many times, which made Ye Cang angry, so he felt even more guilty.

Over the next few days, Ye Cang worked as hard as ever, as if he didn’t care about it at all.

It made Shen Huai a little confused. He didn’t know if Ye Cang was unwilling to go. He hesitated for a while before finding Ye Cang: “If you are not willing to go, it’s ok…”

Ye Cang’s eyes widened, and his reaction was very fierce: “Who said I didn’t want to go?!!”

Shen Huai: “But you…”

Ye Cang put his arm around him, and said humbly, “Sister Mei said earlier. that we had not been able to go on a date before. But because I was showing off too much, I couldn’t see it, so I held back…”

Shen Huai: “…”

He felt so angry and funny at the same time that he couldn’t figure it out. Ye Cang was a man with great dominance on the stage, and he didn’t know what privacy meant. 

He sighed and comforted himself, Maybe, the contrast was too cute.

The two quickly cleared up the misunderstanding, and Ye Cang packed his things happily.

The next day, the two got on a plane to a private island. Ye Cang was like a child on a spring outing. He was too excited to fall asleep the night before and fell asleep as soon as he got on the plane.

Shen Huai helplessly covered him with a blanket, then took out a book and read it slowly.

When Ye Cang woke up, Shen Huai turned to look at him.

Ye Cang hugged him, he hugged him very tightly. Shen Huai frowned, but he didn’t ask. He gently hugged him back and patted him on the back.

After a long time, Ye Cang came to his senses.

“What’s the matter?” Shen Huai asked. 

Ye Cang shook his head. After a while, he whispered, “I just dreamt that I went back to my previous life and forgot about you, but I’d been looking for you.”

Shen Huai was slightly stunned.

Although Ye Cang only said a short sentence, he heard the fear in his words. He held Ye Cang’s hand and wanted to comfort him, but he didn’t know what he could say.

But Ye Cang adjusted his mood quickly and smiled: “Hey, this is our honeymoon, right?”

Shen Huai: “…”

He doesn’t know why, but Ye Cang had an obsession with honeymoon.

Ye Cang was still urging Shen Huai to answer.

Shen Huai could only say “um” reluctantly.

Ye Cang was satisfied, and he began to talk about other topics with a smile.

It wasn’t long before they arrived at the island.

When they got off the plane, they immediately felt the salty sea breeze. The sun was blazing, but the sea water in the distance seemed crystal clear. The beach was golden and soft. With it paired together, they suddenly felt lazy and just wanted to lie down.

 

–

 

The island has special service personnel, but most of the time, they do not appear in front of their owners. The whole island seemed to be quiet as if only Ye Cang and Shen Huai were here.

Ye Cang had a nap on the plane and was now in high spirits. He put on his swimsuits early, revealing his carefully trained eight-pack abs, pretending to walk casually in front of Shen Huai.

Shen Huai: “…”

Since Ye Cang’s rebirth, he had always been bitter about his body figure. In recent years, he had been working hard to keep fit, and now he has finally achieved results.

Before going out this time, Ye Cang trained intensively for a few days, just for this moment.

But when Ye Cang didn’t hear Shen Huai’s reaction when he passed by, he quietly retreated and directly thumped Shen Huai on the beach chair.

Shen Huai: “…”

Ye Cang lowered his voice: “Honey, aren’t you going to say something?”

It was clearly a picture full of color, Ye Cang acted like he didn’t care about it but in fact, he cared about it a lot which made Shen Huai think of the kids who couldn’t eat candy, so he couldn’t help chuckling.

Ye Cang: “…”

He felt that his male dignity had been hurt.

After Shen Huai laughed, he realized that it was not good. Seeing Ye Cang’s grievance, he raised his face and kissed him gently on the chin.

“Very handsome.”

Ye Cang pressed him down directly and deepened the kiss.

Two people panted when they separated, and laid on the chair together to look at the night sky. Because the air was very good, even the stars were much brighter than in the city.

When the two clasped their fingers, Shen Huai suddenly said: “I remember the first time I saw you, I thought you were like the star in the sky. When you stand on the stage, the light is so bright that people can only see you.”

Ye Cang has never heard Shen Huai say such straightforward words. He couldn’t help turning his face. Shen Huai’s lips had a faint smile and when he took off his glasses, his eyes were like a spring reflecting the stars and moonlight.

In this quiet moment, a lot of words seemed very easy to say.

Ye Cang held Shen Huai’s hand and said, “If I were a star, I would only fall into your eyes.”

Neither of them could help laughing.

Ye Cang sat up, took his guitar and played the first love song he wrote to Shen Huai.

Although this song was put on the album by Ye Cang, it has never been sung in public.

At that time, he only wanted to express his love for Shen Huai, but later he formed a habit. Each of his albums would have a special song for Shen Huai. The public went from the excitement at the beginning to eating dog food at the end.

Ye Cang not sprinkled dog food, but also specially said that this song will be only sung to Shen Huai, so he will never sing it in public.

At first, some people were indignant that there would be no real feelings in the entertainment industry, but later, netizens were used to special songs that arrived as promised but that would never be sung. Saying they have already eaten dog food for more than a decade.

Now in the moonlight, the singing Ye Cang was simply intoxicating.

Shen Huai’s heart softened. 

–

Over the next few days, their lives were almost like the retired elderly.

In the morning, after breakfast, they were in the villa. Ye Cang occasionally wrote songs, and Shen Huai would take a book and read it beside him. Occasionally, when Ye Cang was in high spirits, he would play the piano and improvise to Shen Huai. Occasionally, Ye Cang played jazz songs from the past and would start dancing with Shen Huai while he gently continued to sing.

So a few days later, Shen Huai had only read a few pages of his book.

In the afternoon, they would take a nap. When they woke up, they would either bask in the sun on the beach or take a swim at the seaside.

Shen Huai didn’t have easily tanned skin, but Ye Cang didn’t have this gene so after a few days, there was a clear contrast between their skin color. Ye Cang looked more and more like himself from his last life.

In the evening, the two would take a walk on the beach and have a chat.

There seems to be endless conversation between them, but they have never had so many opportunities to be so honest about themselves.

After the walk, they would go back to their room and go to sleep hugging each other.

Such days were almost never-ending, so when the day of them going back came near, Shen Huai didn’t respond.

On his last night on the island, Shen Huai had a dream. He dreamed that he had met Lu Yang 40 years ago.

The man on the stage looked arrogant, and seeing him with his own eyes was far more shocking than the 3D image, hitting his heart directly.

However, Shen Huai shed tears without any warning. He finally understood the fear of Ye Cang after having this dream before they came to the island.

They were strangers and he knew that the future of another person would be a tragedy, but he could not stop it. He could only watch him go to his end.

Shen Huai was awakened by his nightmare and his forehead was stained with cold sweat. He couldn’t help looking at Ye Cang who was sleeping soundly beside him.

Ye Cang opened his eyes vaguely, and asked in a thick nasal voice: “What’s the matter?”

Shen Huai shook his head. “Nothing.”

Although Ye Cang was very sleepy, he obviously felt that something was wrong with Shen Huai, so he struggled to get up and held Shen Huai in his arms.

Shen Huai felt the familiar temperature, and his fears seemed to fade away, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

At this time, Ye Cang was almost awake and asked, “What’s the matter with you? Did you have a nightmare?”

Shen Huai hesitated for a moment before telling the contents of the dream.

In fact, for Shen Huai, at this moment, he had gradually come out of this fear. He had specialized in psychology, he really knew what kind of psychological reaction it was, but he just wanted to be weak for a moment.

Unexpectedly, Ye Cang said, “I was afraid before too, but then I remembered what a friend once said. The truest emotions of human beings are love and fear. When these two emotions appear for the same person, it means that I am completely open to him.”

“I didn’t believe it before. I didn’t think there would be such a person in the world, but at this moment, I believed it, and I think you do too.”

Shen Huai was stunned. Indeed, his love and fear were only open to Ye Cang.

He smiled slowly.

“That is the most beautiful sentiment tonight.”
