Chapter 86 - Only him and Xiang Huaizhi in the corridor

Edited by Divetus

Jing Huan looked into Xiang Huaizhis eyes and completely forgot everything he had just said.

The movie theatres announcement rang out to remind them to enter the theater.

Xiang Huaizhi stood up with the popcorn and the rose. Dont lack money, and also dont want to get involved with her. Lets go in.

Jing Huan said oh and hurriedly followed him in.

When waiting in line for the ticket check-in, Jing Huan only then sort of pulled himself together.

In fact, it wasnt that Jing Huan couldnt call Xiang Huaizhi that; on the contrary, he was more used to calling him Gege, since he had called him that so many times in-game after all. When he first met Xiang Huaizhi, he almost called him by the wrong honorific several times.

But, still calling him that now seemed It suddenly felt very strange.

The two of them chatted to pa.s.s the time and stood at the end of the check-in line.

Jing Huan walked into the theater with two cups of c.o.ke and looked up. The number of people in the theater was very small. Everyone was sitting in pairs of seats with a rose between them, turning the whole place into something just like a couples event.

At this time, Xiang Huaizhi turned around, revealing half of the rose with his movement. Seat number?

Jing Huan said, The last row, seats 7 and 8.

In the last row, it was only the two of them. Jing Huan put the c.o.ke in place, and when he looked up, he saw Xiang Huaizhi put the rose beside the c.o.ke.

Just like the other couples in the venue.

Jing Huan:

Why did he feel like something wasnt quite right?

At the beginning of the film, Jing Huan was ready to watch the film seriously.

The movie started with some opening narration. After Jing Huan watched it patiently, a few big words appeared on the screen<>.

?

Jing Huan was a bit confused. He picked up his movie ticket and carefully read and confirmed it.

He hadnt looked at it carefully when he was at the basketball court today. He had just thought that the film poster looked science-fiction-y, so he had casually chosen it.

The movie theater was even more perfunctory; movie tickets werent printed out, but hand-written, and on it only <> was scribbled.

So it turned out, this actually wasnt a science fiction movie???

Any other time before, Jing Huan wouldve definitely gotten up and left.

But today, his patience had been expanded to the absolute maximum. He not only didnt leave but also chose a comfortable position to sit in.

When Jing Huan saw the man on-screen tear open an express delivery box to discover a female robot lying in it, but only an inch of her was shown, his expression grew extremely subtle.

It could be seen that the scale of the original film was large, but after editing, there wasnt anything left.

Jing Huan lost interest and propped his chin in his hands. As soon as he looked down, he saw the actions of the little couple in front of him.

When the man opened the express delivery box, the girl immediately sat up straight and covered her boyfriends eyes bashfully.

.

What was there to hide!

The person was just showing their neck!!

Jing Huan thought it was funny and turned his head over to vent but then met Xiang Huaizhis gaze.

Xiang Huaizhi looked at him with half-lidded eyes and asked, Whats the matter?

Jing Huan lost all the words he had wanted to vent.

He looked away, grabbed some popcorn and threw it into his mouth. His whole mouth was filled with sweetness. You Do you eat popcorn?

Delicious? Xiang Huaizhi asked.

Its a little sweet. Jing Huan paused for a moment. s.h.i.+t, its too sweet Youd better not eat it, too oily.

In the dark, Xiang Huaizhi let out a very small chuckle, En.

Jing Huan:

f.u.c.k.

What nonsense am I babbling about!!!

Am I crazy, did I have nothing else to do, why did I buy popcorn! Why buy a couple package!! Wouldnt we be happy just ordering two cups of c.o.ke!!!

Jing Huan s.h.i.+fted his sitting position uneasily, and the cellphone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.

Lu Wenhao: No A question suddenly occurred to me.

Xiao Jing ya:?

Lu Wenhao: Shouldnt it be three people going to the movies? Why wasnt I included?

Lu Wenhao: Why didnt you and Senior Xiang call me to go

ah

!

Jing Huan was stunned.

Now that he said it, he really hadnt thought of taking Lu Wenhao along

Xiao Jing ya: We finally have a whole day without any cla.s.ses, how can I deprive you of your rest time?

Lu Wenhao: ?

Xiao Jing ya: Have a good rest, drink more hot water, and go to bed early.

Jing Huan locked his cellphone and raised his eyes. The two people in front of him had already sneakily kissed each other.

The boy leaned over, and the back of his head moved back and forth.

Jing Huans neck was stiff, and he didnt dare to turn his head again.

What if Xiang Huaizhi was looking at him again.

Did Xiang Huaizhi see what these two people were doing?

Jing Huan didnt know what was wrong with him, he felt awkward all over. All he wanted to do right now was to rush up and fling money at the boys face, telling him to go book a room in the hotel next door and stop doing these kinds of things in public.

At the end of the film, the two people in front of them finally stopped moving around.

Jing Huan was so exhausted that he didnt know what the movie was even about. He hurriedly got up and said, Lets go

ba

.

Xiang Huaizhi let out an en sound, and he reached for the rose beside the c.o.ke and walked out.

Jing Huan: k2026;

Jing Huan walked out of the movie theater with mixed feelings, and for the second time, he blacklisted this place in his heart.

When the cold wind blew on his face, Jing Huan finally snapped out of his daze. He didnt have anything to say but searched for a topic. That movie was quite long.

Only 80 minutes, Xiang Huaizhi said.

Jing Huan: f.u.c.k, why did he feel like a century had pa.s.sed?

Xiang Huaizhi glanced at the time. Lets go eat?

Okay, said Jing Huan, Im treating you, what do you want to eat?

Xiang Huaizhi? Someone suddenly called out from behind them.

Jing Huan looked back and saw several tall boys standing behind them, all unfamiliar to him.

Xiang Huaizhi frowned and greeted them, Cla.s.s monitor.

The cla.s.s monitor was a boy from Northeast China. He was warm and kind, had helped many people in the cla.s.s, and had a good relations.h.i.+p with Xiang Huaizhi.

Its really you. Didnt you say that you had stuff to do? The monitor looked at Jing Huan. Who is this?

Jing Huan, soph.o.m.ore! Before they could reply, the guy behind the monitor gave out an answer, You said you wanted to arrange a meeting to play basketball against him!

The cla.s.s monitor suddenly realized, Oh, h.e.l.lo, h.e.l.lo undercla.s.sman.

Jing Huan also smiled. h.e.l.lo cla.s.s monitor, we just finished watching a movie.

What good movies are there recently? The cla.s.s monitor asked, Then, where are you guys going now?

Out to eat, Xiang Huaizhi answered.

s.h.i.+t, thats perfect. Lets go, Ill treat you to some barbecue for my birthday today. The cla.s.s monitor immediately came up to pull them in without saying any more.

The cla.s.s monitor was very tall, but he couldnt budge Xiang Huaizhi.

Xiang Huaizhi said, Next time

ba

, I have someone with me now.

The cla.s.s monitor smiled angrily. Next time? You mean that I have to treat you on my birthday next year again

bei

.

Jing Huan hurriedly said, Ah, its okay. Then, let me head back first

ba

Before he could take two steps back, Xiang Huaizhi grabbed his wrist. At the same time, the cla.s.s monitor also grabbed his other arm.

No, lets go together. The cla.s.s monitor said, Its just a matter of one more pair of chopsticks! I reserved a big table, we can all fit!

This was a new barbecue shop with grand opening sales. The cla.s.s monitor explained that he and the store manager were acquaintances while raising his hand and ordering several bottles of alcohol, including two bottles of

baijiu

.

When Lu Hang arrived, he saw the people sitting there and stared. Arent you So whats going on? Jing Huan? Why are you also here?

What do you mean whats going on? These two Ge just finished watching a movie. The cla.s.s monitor stood up holding a cup. Just in time, everyone is here. Quickly, everyone give me a toast and wish me a happy birthday!

Everyone laughed at his shamelessness and stood up to drink.

The place was originally already crowded, the seats being a big round sofa. After Lu Hang joined in, it was even more crowded. Everyone was pretty much halfway stuck to the person beside them.

As soon as Jing Huan sat down, Xiang Huaizhi leaned towards him.

In a moment, if they offer you baijiu, dont drink it.

Jing Huan gave a slight nod. En.

Ah, s.h.i.+t.

Why did he feel like Xiang Huaizhis breath was nearly on his ear?!

Jing Huan didnt know any of the people at the table, and he thought that Xiang Huaizhi was worrying too much about it. He didnt expect that after three rounds of alcohol, the topic of conversation really turned to him.

Undercla.s.sman, the cla.s.s monitor raised his gla.s.s to him. One look is worth a thousand words, youre really d.a.m.n good-looking

ah

.

Jing Huan clinked his gla.s.s against the cla.s.s monitors. Not good-looking, just handsome.

The cla.s.s monitor smiled. Sure, youre confident enough. You dont know, but I heard about you a long time ago. Last time when we played against the neighboring cla.s.s, Huaizhi wasnt there, and none of the girls in our cla.s.s came.

He raised his index finger. Its true, not a single one came. I was wondering if it was some other show that had come Later, I learned that your cla.s.s also had a compet.i.tion against another cla.s.s that day, and all of them had gone to specifically watch you.

Xiang Huaizhi gave him a sidelong glance and saw the boy next to him holding the wine gla.s.s in one hand while laughing happily.

Chatting with them, Jing Huan unconsciously accompanied the cla.s.s monitor to have a few drinks.

It was good that the gla.s.s was small, emptied in about two gulps.

He said, In that case, next time lets make an appointment to play a game, Ge.

The cla.s.s monitor nodded. Then, you have to let me have a few points, otherwise those girls cant see my good side.

Why would I have to let you? Jing Huan said, With your height, couldnt you just casually block me?

The cla.s.s monitor was

1.9 m tall

. When he heard that, he laughed happily, Tch, Huaizhi, your undercla.s.sman can really talk.

Xiang Huaizhi heard that and laughed, En.

In fact, you dont have to do something so troublesome. If you really want to

share peach blossoms

with your compatriots, theres the simplest way, said the cla.s.s monitor. You should quickly find a young lady to date and shatter the dreams of those other people after you, then itll be settled.

Xiang Huaizhis movements paused.

Jing Huan gave a slight smile. Then forget about it, who could like me

ah

. A relations.h.i.+p is doomed if its just based on physical appearances.

Cla.s.s monitor replied, Come on

ah

, you consider it, or what type do you like? Ge will introduce you.

Forget it, forget it, Jing Huan waved his hand, leaned back, and b.u.mped into Xiang Huaizhis shoulder.

Jing Huan immediately turned his head and asked nervously, Did I hurt you?

Xiang Huaizhis eyes went half-lidded, and he just looked at him, not saying a word.

Again it was like this.

Why was Xiang Huaizhi looking at him with those kinds of eyes?

His gaze made him tense and speechless.

What are you two doing? Sweetly staring at each other? The cla.s.s monitor interrupted, Jing Huan, come, keep drinking.

Jing Huan returned to his senses and turned around, pretending to be calm. He picked up his empty gla.s.s and said, Okay, wait for me to pour out a gla.s.s.

Hey, wait a minute, dont drink beer, whats good about beer? The cla.s.s monitor picked up the baijiu on hand and said, Come and drink this. Its a good thing, very expensive.

The cla.s.s monitor stood up and bent down to pour baijiu into Jing Huans cup.

As soon as the baijiu bottle was brought over, it was blocked.

Xiang Huaizhi reached out a hand to block the bottle, saying, He cant drink it.

The people at the table were all stunned. Lu Hang was the first to react and also stood up. He really cant drink it. Last time, he drank several bottles of beer in KTV, and we had to carry him out sideways.

Jing Huan was embarra.s.sed and said, It wasnt that bad, I was actually awake at that time

Its fine, its just one cup. This baijiu isnt that strong, its just for casual drinking. The cla.s.s monitor said, Or, how about half a cup?

Jing Huan also felt that he couldnt get drunk off of half a cup. He raised his gla.s.s a little and was about to say something.

Dont, small friends shouldnt drink too much, Xiang Huaizhi said, Found out about your birthday too late, and I didnt have time to prepare a gift for you, so Ill have two drinks with you, cla.s.s monitor.

All the people at the table were shocked, and the cla.s.s monitor felt even more so that this was a rare occurrence.

The boys in their cla.s.s had a bad temper at the bar; they liked to persuade everyone to also drink, but Xiang Huaizhi was a person they could never persuade.

The boy sitting next to the cla.s.s monitor said at once, Then, if our cla.s.smate drinks, it has to be three cups

ah

.

Jing Huan: ?

That was a bit overboard.

Jing Huan hurriedly opened his mouth, Then, in that case

Okay. Xiang Huaizhis brow wasnt wrinkled anymore.

Jing Huan:

Although they happily chatted, midway through the conversation, it was obvious that Jing Huan wasnt from their cla.s.s. He couldnt say anything about the topics they had turned to afterward.

He couldnt help turning his head to look at Xiang Huaizhi.

Xiang Huaizhi was chatting with his cla.s.smates. His face was as usual, but his cheeks were slightly flushed.

Jing Huan. An unknown amount of time later, the cla.s.s monitor called out to him again.

Jing Huan got a hold of himself. Ah?

The cla.s.s monitors cheeks were red; it seemed that some of the wine had reached his head. Why did your mother give you this name

ah

, it sounds like a young ladys name.

This wasnt the first time Jing Huan had heard this. He replied, Oh, they said that while living in this world,

just being happy

is the best thing. Jing Kai and Jing Xin both dont sound good, so they decided to use

Huan

.

Everyone at the table laughed. The cla.s.s monitor gave him a thumbs up while laughing, What auntie said is reasonable.

They ate barbeque until half past nine, but everyone still hadnt celebrated enough. So the cla.s.s monitor waved his hand and decided to add an activity, inviting them to all go to a bar to drink, and everyone would pay for themselves.

Naturally, everyone said yes.

Xiang Huaizhi got up and picked up his coat. He and I wont be coming along, take it easy guys.

Being aware of how difficult it was to invite Xiang Huaizhi, the cla.s.s monitor didnt mind. Thats fine, you go back by yourself, and Jing Huan can come with us

bei

.

Jing Huan had just been ill and didnt want to be haunted by a hangover. He waved his hand. I wont go either.

The cla.s.s monitor exclaimed, Why not?

Jing Huan shrugged. Im short on money recently. I cant afford to go to a bar.

Cla.s.s Monitor:

Xiang Huaizhi was listening on the side, and he kept thinking that this excuse sounded familiar.

It was only when they got to the door did they find that it was raining outside. The rain was even heavier than yesterday.

In this group of big men, not a single one had brought an umbrella. Fortunately, the cla.s.s monitor and the restaurant owner really did know each other, so the owner lent them a few.

Jing Huan and Xiang Huaizhi also got an old-fas.h.i.+oned black umbrella.

While they were walking under the umbrella, no one spoke.

Jing Huans eyes wildly s.h.i.+fted around, and finally pinned on Xiang Huaizhis hand that was holding the umbrella.

Are you dizzy? Xiang Huaizhi suddenly opened his mouth and asked.

Jing Huan looked like he was caught doing something bad, and he immediately looked away. Ah? No, I didnt drink much.

Theyre pretty good people, Xiang Huaizhi said, But their drinking habits arent good.

Jing Huan nodded. Understood.

Small waves of dull noises sounded as the rain hit the roofs eaves. There were few people in the street, due to the rain and the streetlamps dim yellow light reflected on the water, brightening the surroundings.

His cellphone in his pocket vibrated several times, and Jing Huan took it out to check it.

They were guild messages. He didnt know what the guild was celebrating, but they had been constantly sending out red envelopes.

Jing Huan didnt click on any of them. He put his cellphone back into his pocket and suddenly thought of another important thing.

He still hadnt taken the time to explain that mess to Xiang Huaizhi.

Yesterday, he was ill, and he hadnt found a chance, but now it was just him and Xiang Huaizhi. It could be said that this was the best time.

Jing Huans mouth opened and closed, and after a long time, he still couldnt force any words out.

Did you take any supplements today? Xiang Huaizhi asked.

Jing Huan was stupefied for a while, and only reacted after a bit. Yes, I eat them after 12 every day. The servant will send a message to remind me.

When will the child be born?

If nothing unexpected happens, Sunday?

Xiang Huaizhi let out an en sound, Its been hard on you.

?

Xiang Huaizhi said, When the child is born, Ill take you out again to make up for the lost experience points.

In fact, there wasnt anything wrong with these words.

But Jing Huan inexplicably felt like he was drunk.

They were talking as if they were actually dating online.

Jing Huan immediately put aside this dangerous thought. He took a deep breath and said, Gege, I actually have another matter I need to talk to you about.

What matter?

About Jing Huans voice got smaller, About why I turned on a voice changer and tricked you. That matter.

By the time he finished talking, Jing Huan wanted to find a hole in the ground to hide in.

It was too hard.

It was really too hard.

Even the college entrance examinations werent this miserable!!!

Xiang Huaizhi walked as usual and said, I know.

Its like this, a few months ago Jing Huan was dumbfounded and realized what Xiang Huaizhi had just said. He turned around in surprise. Ah?

I said, I know. Xiang Huaizhi said. .

How did you know????

Looking at his shocked expression, Xiang Huaizhi kind of wanted to laugh.

Look ahead and concentrate on walking. He said.

Jing Huan didnt even know how he got back to the front of his apartment complex.

His head was full of questions now, but he didnt dare to actually ask any of them, so he could only digest them by himself.

He had been holding it in for such a long time and had been afraid for so long, but Xiang Huaizhi actually knew everything???

The most unbelievable thing was that Xiang Huaizhi was still willing to continue to be friends with him even after he knew everything.

Even bringing him water.

And inviting him to the movies.

And helping to decline drinks for him.

Jing Huan left this nonsensical train of thought and lifted his head to show a very moved expression.

Xiang Huaizhi was really a good person.

A very good person.

Gege, Without any psychological burdens, Jing Huans Gege carried a special sense of sincerity. Ill definitely treat you well in the future.

Xiang Huaizhi originally wanted to say goodbye, but after hearing this, he paused, Treat me well?

En, Jing Huan swept a glance at the rose in Xiang Huaizhis pocket and said, Do you really like roses? Ill give you a big bunch next time.

Xiang Huaizhi was silent for a bit. En. Head up

ba

.

Jing Huan said, Why dont we go up together? Ill warm up a gla.s.s of milk for you, warm up your stomach a bit. Youve just had so much wine, its hard to not feel uncomfortable

ah

.

Xiang Huaizhi let out a long breath.

He wasnt a lightweight drinker but his tolerance wasnt to the point that he could have a thousand gla.s.ses and still not be drunk. The cla.s.s monitor had just filled him with a lot of baijiu so now his whole brain felt a little heated.

Not today, he said.

Jing Huan let out an oh. Then, Ill head up first?

En.

Jing Huan took two steps inside, but suddenly, he thought of something and turned back.

Jing Huan untied his scarf and wrapped it around Xiang Huaizhi.

His movements were quite casual. The more than a meter long scarf was loosely tied around Xiang Huaizhis neck. Jing Huan took a look, raised his hand again to help Xiang Huaizhi wrap it around himself one more time, and lastly folded in the scarf tail.

Its cold at night, wear this when heading back

ba

, said Jing Huan. Itll be a bit warmer. The school doesnt like to open the back gate during rainy days, who the h.e.l.l knows if his lords.h.i.+p has closed the gate yet

The scarf had been worn for a long time and was permeated with that persons warmth. Xiang Huaizhi smelled the scent of the scarf, and it was as if he was back in last nights blus.h.i.+ng dreamworld.

After tying the scarf, Jing Huan said with satisfaction, Im heading up. Send me a message when you get to the dormitory.

As soon as he was about to leave, he was grabbed by the arm and dragged closer.

Jing Huan took two steps, b.u.mped into Xiang Huaizhi, and smelled the light wisp of wine on the other persons body.

Jing Huan asked, What

He didnt get to finish his question.

Xiang Huaizhis left hand held up the umbrella to block the view of their upper bodies. The black umbrella separated them from the sheets of rain, and the buildings motion-sensing light went out. Jing Huan seemed to have returned to the theater, the only difference being that there were now only him and Xiang Huaizhi in the corridor.

Under the umbrella, Xiang Huaizhi lowered his head, and like the way he had dreamed of last night, he very lightly pressed his lips against Jing Huans mouth.
