It had been almost two days since Domineering Guy met Coquettish Guy. Domineering Guy sent a message to him, but Coquettish Guy didn’t reply earnestly, which made Domineering Guy even more anxious. At the moment, Domineering Guy wished he were a lion or tiger because no one would point fingers at him being gay as long as he could fight a way out. He could also bring little Chen back to his territory and protect him with his claws. In this way, no one would covet Coquettish Guy.

“If you don’t want to go out, I can come to your home.” said Domineering Guy.

“Can we meet at school?” said Coquettish Guy.

“But I miss you so much. [Disappointed] I miss you with every inch of my body.” replied Domineering Guy.

“Behave yourself.” said Coquettish Guy.

“So you don’t want to be responsible any more after sleeping with me. You weren’t like this before. You used to care about me. Oh, you hurt me!” said Domineering Guy.

Looking at Domineering Guy’s message, Coquettish Guy found it funny and to be honest, he did miss Domineering Guy.

“Is that the brat Zhou? You haven’t broken up?”

An abrupt voice suddenly came out. Ji Chen quickly powered off his mobile and said “It’s my own business. I know what I’m doing.”

“But you are my son. I have to pay attention to your affairs.”

During dinner, Domineering Guy heard his parents talking about job transfers. It had been an untold rule that one couldn’t always get promotion at the same administrative area, otherwise, he might be envied by others. Therefore, if one transferred to other areas to work for three to five years, then it was natural to be promoted after he came back.

“Don’t worry too much.” said Domineering Guy’s father, “Since you are in college now, moving to other places is only a matter of spending holidays at a different place.”

Domineering Guy also thought the same way. But if he moved, he would be even further apart from little Chen. During holidays, a proper excuse must be come up with for their gathering.

After dinner, Domineering Guy began considering how could he see his beloved baby. So he came to help his mum wash dishes, innocently saying “Uncle Ji used to visit us every year in holidays. Why he hasn’t come this year?”

Domineering Guy’s mum saw through his son’s mind and smiled warmly, saying “Even if your father is senior to him, he is no longer your Uncle Ji’s line manager. Why bother to visit us in holidays?”

Straight Guy was so worried about Domineering Guy and Coquettish Guy that he arranged a meeting for them.

Domineering Guy arrived first and he was at a loss why Straight Guy looked so concerned. He considered that Gla.s.ses-guy should be held accountable.

With a sense of responsibility, Domineering Guy tried his best to help Straight Guy and said “Little Zhou, we are young, so sometimes we cannot regard love as the most important thing in our life.”

“But boss, I think love is important.” Straight Guy felt confused.

Domineering Guy thought Straight Guy was so one-track minded that he might be hurt, so he continued to say “Caring about love is not wrong, but you shouldn’t always focus on one person. You are young now and you haven’t met too many people, so don’t be stubborn. The world is large and you will find you loved one, plenty of fish in the sea. Please do not take things too hard.”

At his last word, Domineering Guy saw Coquettish Guy walking slowly towards him.

【242】

At that time, Domineering Guy really wanted to slap his own face. “Little Chen, listen to me. Baby!”

On the other side, Coquettish Guy calmly sat beside Straight Guy without saying a word. He smiled purposefully at Domineering Guy. Seeing this, Domineering Guy said to Straight Guy “Little Zhou, do you want to go to the loo?”

Straight Guy was crazy inside, thinking “Oh, what should I do? What if boss and little Chen break up because of this? It’s crazy and incredible. Does little Chen feel bad about that? Boss, this time you are really out of the line. Why did boss say all that to me? ”

Feigning calmness, Straight Guy stood up and said, “I, I’d like to go to the loo for at least half an hour. So you guys just…Oh, I’m going now.”

After saying that, Straight Guy ran quickly as if he was The Flash in the flesh and disappeared in their sight.

【243】

Domineering Guy held Coquettish Guy’s hands, saying “Babe, please listen to me. I can explain why I said all those words. I didn’t mean to say that.”

Coquettish Guy let him hold his hands and didn’t even try to struggle, but his face said otherwise. Seeing Coquettish Guy’s facial expression, Domineering Guy became so nervous that he came to the seat beside him and hugged Coquettish Guy, saying “Babe! Don’t you know my feelings in these years? I can even present my heart to you. You have to trust me. ”

Coquettish Guy glanced at him and remained still, “I didn’t think anything and I’m not saying I won’t trust you.”

Coquettish Guy had always been someone who looked all right but thought too much to himself, and that scared the sh*t out of Domineering Guy. So Domineering Guy decided to tell the truth “You know. What I said before was just to comfort little Zhou. You know why uppercla.s.sman dated him. I’m worried that if little Zhou finds something unusual, he might feel heartbroken. Little Zhou was at a loss these days. He must have found that uppercla.s.sman was not sincere in their relations.h.i.+p. I’m concerned about him, so I said all those words.”

Straight Guy was watching them in the back, but on hearing these words, he didn’t hear clearly about the following.

He pressed his ears and thought he might have heard things that did not exist. How could that happen?

【244】

Straight Guy couldn’t believe what boss said just now. Although he and uppercla.s.sman didn’t have a strong sentiment, they were at least sincere about their love. Now it sounded like their love might have mixed with other purposes and lies. Thinking about this, Straight Guy didn’t even have the clear head to feel sad, he was just really confused at the moment.

But he didn’t dare to ask boss because it might be embarra.s.sing to speak that out. After all, those who told the truth were not wrong. Truth mattered most.

Straight Guy sent a message to them before leaving, but they were too busy fighting to notice that.

Straight Guy quietly looked at them and went away crestfallen.

“Uppercla.s.sman, why do you want to date me?” Straight Guy felt a little sad and squatted at a corner. He didn’t send out the message but deleted it word by word. He didn’t know the reason; he just didn’t want to uncover the fact by himself.

At the same time, the Gla.s.ses-guy called him, “Yangyang.”

Hearing this, Straight Guy became weepy. “Yangyang, when do you come back for dinner?” asked the Gla.s.ses-guy.

Straight Guy almost agreed his invitation, but he told himself he couldn’t do that before he knew the whole thing. “My mum asked me to go home today. So I can’t come, sorry.”

【245】

The Gla.s.ses-guy instantly felt something went wrong. But when he called Straight Guy later, he didn’t answer any more. The Gla.s.ses-guy recalled that Straight Guy mentioned he was going to comfort Domineering Guy and Coquettish Guy. So he called Domineering Guy.

Picking up the phone, Domineering Guy was a little bit off guard, and he was so shocked that he set the fighting aside. He said confusedly “You couldn’t find little Zhou?”

“What?”

The two called a truce. One called Straight Guy and the other sent messages.

However, Straight Guy neither answered their phone nor replied messages. Domineering Guy and Coquettish Guy calmed themselves and looked into each other’s eyes.

“…Did little Zhou overhear what I was talking about?” said Domineering Guy.

“Why did you speak that loudly to let him hear?” said Coquettish Guy.

“But I didn’t expect he would be nearby.” said Domineering Guy.

“That’s enough. We have to find little Zhou now.” said Coquettish Guy.

Domineering Guy and Coquettish Guy hurriedly went out, paid the bill and tried to find him along the way. Without noticing, they held their hands together when hurrying out. 

【246】

Domineering Guy and Coquettish Guy looked for Straight Guy all the way before they felt tired and took a rest on the benches in the park. Just as they sat still, Domineering Guy ran away and soon came back with two bottles of water. He opened the bottle and gave it to Coquettish Guy.

Coquettish Guy took it and looked at his eager eyes. He suddenly couldn’t think of any sharp words.

Domineering Guy was never an observing person, but he was sensitive to little Chen’s every single move. He knew that Coquettish Guy was soft inside now, so he promptly held Coquettish Guy’s hand and said “I feel like it’s been years since we met last time.”

Coquettish Guy looked down on his hands and he didn’t struggle to leave it.

Domineering Guy stared at him, saying,  “I miss you so much. Do you miss me?”

Coquettish Guy didn’t say anything.

Seeing this, Domineering Guy became even softer and looked anxious, “Little Chen, you miss me, right?”

Coquettish Guy felt he couldn’t retreat anymore and whispered “Yes.”

Domineering Guy held his hands towards him and kissed.

【247】

Straight Guy squatted at the corner and didn’t dare to go home because he was afraid that his parents might know something when looking at his worrying face.

It took him so much power to control himself not to answer uppercla.s.sman’s and his two friends’ calls. But he felt even worse when he saw the missed calls on his mobile.

Even when he was a kid, he did not want to bother others. Now his feelings were hurt, he still didn’t want to worry anyone.

Biting his own lips, he pondered over and over. Straight Guy first sent a message to the Gla.s.ses-guy who kept calling him and messaging him, “I am down and I don’t want to answer your call. Please don’t call me. But don’t worry. I’m safe and I’ll go home soon.”

Then he sent a message to Coquettish Guy, “Little Chen, I feel blue now but I will be ok soon. I’m on my way home. Please tell this to boss.”

Meanwhile, Domineering Guy and Coquettish Guy were kissing each other and did not even notice the message.

Seeing no reply, Straight Guy sent another message, “Be okay with boss and trust him; at least he is sincere to you.”
