After Straight Guy woke up in the morning, he sleepily found his phone, recalling the messages uppercla.s.sman sent him last night. He once again fell into melancholy and went back to his bed.

Just as he was recalling his yet another failing love, his mum pulled him up. Straight Guy became even sadder, “Mum, I just experienced a breakup. Can you let me sleep well?”

Hearing this, his mum instantly frowned, saying “What’s the big deal? Breakup does not mean that you cannot help your mum buy soy sauce. Just go and get it for me.”

Straight Guy had no way but to put on his clothes and went out.

At the entrance of his community, he saw the familiar car before he went into the supermarket for soy sauce.

Straight Guy stared at the car while the Gla.s.ses-guy looked at Straight Guy sitting in the car. Both of them didn’t realize how long they were staring at each other until a traffic cop came and wrote a parking ticket for Gla.s.ses-guy.

Straight Guy rubbed his eyes and ran into the supermarket near the community.

Seeing Straight Guy running away, the Gla.s.ses-guy wanted to catch him, but the traffic cop asked him to park his car to certain places.

“Give me the ticket please and I’ll pay.” said the Gla.s.ses-guy, being anxious.

The cop was also an upright person. He said “It’s not about money. You can’t park here. It is illegal.”

Hearing this, the Gla.s.ses-guy felt stuffy and whiny, so he directly gave his key to the cop, saying “Sorry, could you please park my car? I really have something urgent. I’ll come to the traffic police station to find you later.”

Before the cop said a word, the Gla.s.ses-guy ran away.

Watching him run away, the cop took out his phone and tweeted “Saw a weirdo at work today…”

The Gla.s.ses-guy went into the supermarket. Since it was not a big shop, he quickly saw Straight Guy at a distance, who was standing on his tiptoe and trying to get the soy sauce.

Straight Guy wore a T-s.h.i.+rt, the Gla.s.ses-guy saw his waist exposed because of his move. He quickly went to Straight Guy’s side and said “Yangyang.”

Having held a bottle of soy sauce, Straight Guy turned a deaf ear to uppercla.s.sman’s words and immediately ran away.

This never happened since Straight Guy and the Gla.s.ses-guy were together. Straight Guy was either shy or innocent sometimes and on most occasions, he was sincere and warmhearted. This was the first time that he responded to Gla.s.ses-guy with silence and escape.

The Gla.s.ses-guy felt something struck his heart and he came forward to hold Straight Guy’s hand, saying “Yangyang, let’s talk.”

“I don’t want to talk.” said Straight Guy in a low voice, trying to get away with his hands.

The Gla.s.ses-guy held even tighter to refuse his escape…

“Go away.” said Straight Guy.

“You want to escape from me?” asked the Gla.s.ses-guy in a heartbroken voice.

“I have to go home to season my dishes with soy sauce.” said Straight Guy anxiously.

After Straight Guy came back, he was at a loss. He refused to attend high school reunion when his cla.s.smate called him. Straight Guy’s mum was fond of watching love shows. She didn’t ask her son about his affairs because she was so familiar with the plot that she was sure his son must be dumped.

But he was her son. Seeing Straight Guy emotional, his mum was also upset. Based on Straight Mom’s observation, the girl who had dumped his son must be his high school cla.s.smate; this was why his son was reluctant to attend the reunion.

Straight Guy’s mum patted on his shoulder, saying “Son, you should go to the reunion. Don’t be panicked. I’ll buy you new clothes.”

“No.” said Straight Guy, “Boss and little Chen don’t necessarily go. I don’t want to attend. There is no point.”

“We do not go for a point or to gain some meaning. We go there to fight for ourselves. Now call them and tell them you want to attend.”

“Why?”

“Listen to me, my dear son. Don’t surrender to anyone.”

【261】

Straight Guy’s mum really went to great lengths to help her son get even at his nonexistent ex-girlfriend. She even let Straight Guy’s elder cousin to accompany him to the reunion.

The elder cousin was a domineering girl. Since she was a child, she was gorgeous and independent, who was widely recognized as the dreaming lover of shut-in nerds. She could even be categorized into the girlfriend who other women didn’t want to meet.

The elder cousin touched Straight Guy’s hair as if he was a little puppy, saying “Take it easy, bro. Today we took an eye for an eye. Even there comes a fairy beauty, I will trample over her.”

Straight Guy subconsciously avoided her touch, saying “Hey, I am not…”

The elder cousin held his arm and said “Don’t talk nonsense! Act braver and don’t discriminate our family.”

Straight Guy could do nothing but went out with the domineering girl.

Straight Guy wanted to call a taxi, but his cousin prevented him by saying “You have such a gorgeous girlfriend. Absolutely you should take metro with her and let others envy you.”

Straight Guy wanted to say something but gave up at second thought. Finally, he said in a low voice, “But I didn’t see any envy from others. All I saw was they recognized me as an honest man…”

【262】

On his way, Straight Guy sent a message to Domineering Guy and Coquettish Guy “My mum asked me to attend school reunion. Can you guys come together?”

The Gla.s.ses-guy sent a message to Straight Guy, “Yangyang, please go out and see me; we can talk.”

Straight Guy didn’t want to reply, but Gla.s.ses-guy’s messages kept coming out “I’m at the entrance of your community.”

Straight Guy was afraid that his elder cousin might observe something, so he replied quickly “I’m not at home. I went to high school reunion.”

Seeing this, the Gla.s.ses-guy immediately messaged Domineering Guy “Zhou Ming, where are you now? Go out and let’s talk about our future project.”

“I’m now at karaoke, on XX Road, attending high school reunion. Can we meet later?”

Domineering Guy randomly talked about what happened to Coquettish Guy. Hearing this, Coquettish Guy frowned, “I’m afraid uppercla.s.sman would come soon.”

“What?” said Domineering Guy.

“Anyway, we have to help little Zhou.” pondered Coquettish Guy.

【263】

They arrived later by metro because they had to walk several minutes to karaoke. The elder cousin weren’t pleasant with her makeup, so she asked little Straight Guy to wait for her outside the loo.

Straight Guy was already late, so he told her that he first went to see his cla.s.smates and then came to pick her up. The elder cousin grabbed her purse from Straight Guy, turned around and went into the loo for makeup.

Straight Guy didn’t expect uppercla.s.sman would be there and he sat beside Domineering Guy and Coquettish Guy. Straight Guy felt somewhat cramped because on the one hand he wanted to sit with his friends; on the other hand, he didn’t want to face uppercla.s.sman.

On the other side, the Literature and Art Committee girl had already seen him. Seeing his awkward behavior, she felt a little bit angry, put down her cup and said “Zhou Yang, come here.”

Domineering Guy gasped. Coquettish Guy whispered “What happened?”

Domineering Guy glanced at the Gla.s.ses-guy and said to Coquettish Guy in a low voice “The Literature and Art Committee girl said she won’t do any ‘part-time job’ since last time, so I asked professor’s daughter for help…Why does she cooperate now?”

Coquettish Guy gave a strong startle “Can you ask professor’s daughter to cancel?”

Domineering Guy stunningly looked at the elegant girl at the door and said “It’s too late now…She is here.”

【264】

The Literature and Art Committee girl had already heard from reunion organizer that Zhou Yang was off these days and he even didn’t want to come today. Today she recognized Gla.s.ses-guy at first sight who had cycled Straight Guy. Through observing their reactions and as an “expert” in gay literature, she soon understood their relations.h.i.+p.

She did hate to see Straight Guy, kind and sweet, being bullied and unhappy, so she decidedly called him by her side and acted intimately with him.

The Gla.s.ses-guy wore a pair of gla.s.s-free gla.s.ses. Otherwise, they would have already been distracted by his gla.s.ses’ s.h.i.+ning.

At the same time, an elegant girl came in, looked around and found little Straight Guy. The girl didn’t notice the crazy hints and fiery stares from Domineering Guy. While others were thinking why such an elegant girl came to our booth and a.s.suming she must have gone to the wrong place, the girl went directly to Straight Guy and fervidly showed everyone her acting. She complained flirtingly to Straight Guy “Zhou Yang, why don’t you wait for me. You promised that you will bring me to see your cla.s.smates.”

The Gla.s.ses-guy pushed his gla.s.ses and stared at Straight Guy.

【265】

Straight Guy was so confused that he looked around for help. The girl was very smart; she knew that Straight Guy might spoil the play, so she fixed his face with her hands to stop him looking around. The girl didn’t pay too much attention to her force; Straight Guy’s face was distorted. He innocently and pitifully looked at the girl.

Although the Gla.s.ses-guy knew that there must be something wrong, he couldn’t sit still after seeing this.

The Literature and Art Committee girl was also astonished, thinking it wasn’t what she had expected. So…the girl was Straight Guy’s girlfriend and they were now having a fight? But even if it was this girl that he was dating, it was not right for her to tease honest man.

After considering, the Literature and Art Committee girl said in a cold voice “Zhou Yang, is this your friend? Why not introduce her to us? You are not sincere.”

Straight Guy was at the brink of crying. The girl now saw the sister beside him and said to Straight Guy “Why don’t you introduce me to your friends? Have you changed your mind towards me?”

All the cla.s.smates present curiously looked at their direction, waiting for the tea. The Gla.s.ses-guy almost smashed the gla.s.s bottle in his hand.
