Chapter 32: Story 280-286
Translator: Sissy That Walk

The people in the private room watched Elder Cousin take Straight Guy back. Like nothing happened, Cousin directly found a place to sit down, followed by Straight Guy who slavishly sat beside her. When she glanced at the water on the table, he took the hint and immediately poured a glass of water before passing it to her. She felt very satisfied and stroked his head.
Seeing that she was probably not angry, he started to say in an undertone, “Sister, are you here to help me? Why are you ordering me around?”
She passed the water to him and asked with a smile, “Do you wanna drink it?”
He instantly became slavish and said, “No no no, I can pour the water for myself.”
After a glance at him, she sat back in her seat and unhappily watched Glasses Guy coming over, but her curled lips’ corners exposed her real thought.
Domineering Guy and Coquettish Guy had lost track of what was going on. The latter asked with his eyebrows furrowed, “Why do I think there is something wrong with the gesture of the girl passing the water to Little Zhou?”

Domineering Guy, “Do you also think so? It feels like that Pan Jinlian (a notorious wanton in Chinese folklore) is poisoning Wu Dalang (Pan’s husband).”
Coquettish Guy turned around, glared at him, who then shut his mouth up, but slightly nodded his head in agreement.

Straight Guy sat between Elder Cousin and the little girl who was seated beside the Commissary in charge of entertainment. His face was saved, but he still felt something odd. Domineering Guy wanted to take Coquettish Guy away after staying here for a while. “We don’t play with the little kids here. Can we go out and be alone?” Having not seen him for a couple of days, Coquettish Guy really missed him and was happy to see him. However, as soon as he thought of being alone with Domineering Guy, he shied away immediately. “Everyone is here, so it’ll be impolite to leave first.”
Domineering Guy held his hand and said, “See, some are playing their cellphones, and some are singing, so nobody will notice us.”
He also held Domineering Guy’s hand back. “Eh…It’s still impolite. I don’t know if there is still a chance for us to get together in a few years, so don’t rush to leave.”
Domineering Guy was pleased upon fondling Coquettish Guy’s hand and instantly wanted to steal the spotlight when seeing Coquettish Guy watching the classmate who was singing. Therefore, he also chose several songs and cut in line after discussing with the classmates who had already been waiting to sing.
Their high school classmates shouted painfully after he sang for a little while, “Zhou Ming, stop it. No, please spare our lives.”
“Ji Chen, isn’t he your best friend? Please save our lives by taking this ‘murderer’ away!”
Coquettish Guy: “…”. He doubted that Domineering Guy did this on purpose. As a result, they were spending time alone. Domineering Guy then opened a small private room and took him inside. He felt scared and really hoped that Domineering Guy just wanted to sing.

After entering the private room, Domineering Guy rubbed his hands with excitement and picked up the microphone to sing after choosing a series of songs. Instead of feeling scared, Coquettish Guy found his voice quite melodious regardless of the tune and could enjoy him singing without any objection by relying on the deep affection toward him to forget the tune.
Listening to him singing, Coquettish Guy was reminded of the memories since they knew each other. He couldn’t recall how he fell for Zhou Ming, but strangely enough, it was like from the very moment he could remember things as a kid, his life was all about Zhou Ming. Suddenly, Ji Chen fondly looked at him.
When Domineering Guy finished singing, the scoring system of KTV scored him 30 points automatically, which embarrassed him a little bit. “Little Chen, did I sing melodiously?”
Ji Chen smiled beautifully and stretched out his hand to signal him to come over. “You can only sing to me, and I’ll score you 100 points.”
Domineering Guy was so happy that he was about to wag his tail (if he had one). He knew that he was an unnoticed prince of love songs, so the scoring system must have broken.

Straight Guy felt uncomfortable sitting between girls. Taking the chance of serving Elder Cousin water, he wanted to peek at Glasses Guy. As he looked at Glasses Guy, he unexpectedly looked into Glasses Guy’s eyes. Seeing this, Elder Cousin turned furious and said while pinching his thigh, “Man up! I’ll take you back soon. If you’re taken away by a fox spirit, your mother won’t spare me.”
“Sister…” said he in an undertone to stop her from speaking while reluctantly taking his eyes off Glasses Guy.
The latter bowed his head down to send messages. “Yangyang, I’ll go back in a while. Can we go out and talk to each other?”
He was put into a dilemma. Having glanced at his cousin who sat tight, he expressionlessly typed fast. “I’ll go back with my sister later and I’m afraid I’ll talk to you another day.”
It was the first time that Straight Guy had calmly returned his message after knowing the truth. Glasses Guy couldn’t help but feel glad upon knowing that Straight Guy was still willing to talk to him. Seeing Elder Cousin who sat beside Straight Guy in an attempt to break them up, he didn’t show any excitement on his face and only replied in a message, “I’ll wait for you.”
Straight Guy quietly raised his eyes and then met Glasses Guy’s eyes gaze, making the latter quietly smile. Stealthily having eye contacts right under all of the others’ noses made the little Straight Guy blushed.
Vileplume Cousin who watched the whole process thought to herself, “Do you really think I’m blind?”

When Straight Guy left, those guys who weren’t his classmates followed him out, too. He walked behind his cousin, followed by Glasses Guy in an appropriate distance, and the little girl walked beside her. Elder Cousin was accustomed to taking care of others and thereby asked casually, “How do you go home?” The little girl said with worship in her eyes, “I can take a taxi or the subway.” The moment she finished talking, her high heels twisted, as it just so happened, she fell on Vileplume Cousin. The latter gave her a hand and said, “You’d better take a taxi.” Having glanced at her shoes, Elder Cousin continued, “It’s hard for you to control them when beginning to wear the high-heeled shoes. You can try the short ones.”
The little girl asked, “Sister, can you choose one pair for me? I…I know there is a shopping mall nearby.”
Afterward, she was coaxed away by the little girl. Straight Guy found it rather incredible while watching his cousin walking away.
Glasses Guy timely come over. “Can we talk now?”
Straight Guy subconsciously looked for his cousin, but she was long gone. Glasses Guy grabbed his hand and took him into the car, leaving no chance for him to hesitate and run away.

As a decently straight man, Straight Guy had his heart beat fiercely after being taken into the car. He didn’t know how to face the upperclassman. He had been angry at the upperclassman and uttered what he wanted to say. During this process, his cousin by coincidence learned the relationship between him and the upperclassman, so the upperclassman sort of met his parents at least.
Glasses Guy, who seemed afraid of him jumping out of the car, tightly held his hand even in the car.
The space within the car was so small that their breaths were entangled. In order to avoid Glasses Guy’s glances, he lowered his head but saw the hands held together. “Yangyang,” said Glasses Guy. “I know I’m bad people with ulterior motives. Whatever I say, you might think over it several times. But, I still want to tell you, from this moment of today, I want…I…”
Glasses Guy thought to himself that he was not good at expressing his true feelings and couldn’t utter the words at the tip of his tongue. Straight Guy also felt nervous and looked at him eagerly. Glasses Guy held his hand tightly and said, “Zhou Yang, I…”
Straight Guy waited for him to finish his words while discreetly staring at him. Having breathlessly waited for a long time, Straight Guy almost suffocated himself but didn’t hear Glasses Guy speak. “Well…Upperclassman, you can text me if you like.”
“I like you,” said Glasses Guy fast and lightly while holding Straight Guy into his arms.

Domineering Guy wanted to take Coquettish Guy back home for dinner, but the latter thought it was a bad idea. The former said, “My father knew this and he tried harder to hide this from my mom than myself. My mother doesn’t know it but she likes you very much. Go to my home! You’ll be familiar with each other soon or later.”
Having silenced for a while, Coquettish Guy said, “Zhou Yang, do you really think we’ll have a happy ending?”
Domineering Guy, who played coquetry just now, now said with the smile frozen on his face, “Little, Little Chen, why do you say this?”
Coquettish Guy smiled at him and said with his eyes teeming with softness but helplessness, “Our families won’t agree us to be together.”
“What do you mean?”
He looked so shocked and frustrated, which made Coquettish Guy feel he shouldn’t have said that. However, it was the truth regardless of what he said or not. “Zhou Ming…Since your father is in such a high post, many people will keep eyes on you. My family…won’t vote yes, either, so there is no need for us to fight for it.”
Domineering Guy felt it somewhat unbelievable. He had dreamed of becoming stronger and then marring Little Chen. But now, out of the blue, Little Chen calmly told him his dream was impossible. He felt he couldn’t calm down. Coquettish Guy fondled Domineering Guy’s face and tried to cheer him up. “We were too young before, so they didn’t take it seriously by deeming us just Play House. But, we can’t get there, Zhou Ming.”
Domineering Guy said with his eyes full of hurtful feelings, “Little Chen, have you always thought so?”
Coquettish Guy felt his heart ache and hugged Domineering Guy. “I like you all the way.”
“Do…do you want to marry me?”
Coquettish Guy stroked his back like stroking a small animal. “It’s too hard, Zhou Ming.”
