Chapter 10
The information he gained that night was so much that An Youxi couldn’t hold back his excitement and as soon as he returned, he opened Xia Qianqian’s chat box and typed non-stop.
[ An Youxi: Are you there? ]
[ An Youxi: Xia Qianqian! Xia Qianqian! Xia-Qian-Qian- ]
[ Xia Qianqian: What’s the matter?? ]
[ An Youxi: Let me tell you! Tonight, I went out to skateboard with Ran Ningmu! Originally, I was just going to deliver his skateboard but there was a coincidence, the skateboard club had a training session tonight, so I went with him! And I did this and that, he did this and that and then we did this and that! We were hugging each other! Ah ah !!! ]
An Youxi outlined the events rapidly with fierce words and finally concluded-
Sister! I’m so excited!
[ Xia Qianqian: Yeah, I can see that! ]
I am not blind ==!
[ An Youxi: Xia Qianqian! Do you think he is interested in me? It’s not that I’m narcissistic, but his body stiffened when he hugged me! Normally, if you hate someone or are just friends, you will push him away, right? It wouldn’t be such a suspicious reaction, right? ]
Xia Qianqian thought to herself that the child wasn’t completely stupid. And said.
[ Xia Qianqian: Sister will give you a piece of advice, hurry up and find a time to confess, if it doesn’t work, I will suffer from phantom limb1Phantom limb pain is the perception of pain or discomfort in a limb that is no longer there. It’s commonly a sequela of amputation. ]
[ An Youxi: ??? ]
Why do you send this kind of thing!
[ An Youxi: But but, I dare not (cry) ]
[ Xia Qianqian: (fuckyou.jpg) ]
[ An Youxi: ??? ]
[ Xia Qianqian: I originally planned to have a partnership with the skateboard club last semester, but the equipment was accidentally damaged and needed to be replaced, resulting in insufficient funds. ]
[ Xia Qianqian: Just a few days ago, the funds for this semester of various departments and clubs have been allotted and the recruitment of new clubs is almost complete. I plan to discuss with the president of the skateboard club in these two days to see where to gather this weekend so that the newcomers on both sides can get to know each other. ]
[ Xia Qianqian: You, the extra-staff mascot of our news department will definitely come for the gathering, the opportunity has been prepared for you, you can figure it out yourself. ]
An Youxi was truly shocked, tears welled up in his eyes.
[ An Youxi: Xia Qianqian! From now on, you are my real mother!!! ]
[ Xia Qianqian: Eh! My good son! Mommy has two weeks of press releases here, my dear, so come and take some time to record it in the radio station! (doting mother smile and touches your head.jpg) ]
An Youxi: …
Sure enough, there is no free lunch in the world.
[ An Youxi: Okay? ]
[ An Youxi: (Cinderella’s evil stepmother: I will never allow you to go the ball.jpg) ]
[ An Youxi withdrew a message, guess what was withdrawn]
[ An Youxi: Sorry for sending the wrong message. ]
[ An Youxi: (only good mother in the world.jpg) ]
[ An Youxi: Love you, thanx~ ]
[ Xia Qianqian: …. ]
How can I not see that you did it on purpose?
***
The venue for the social gathering was finally decided to be in the largest private room inside the campus, with a self-serviced barbecue, hot pot, etc… and a variety of board games along with a movie screening and karaoke. It was very convenient to go back to the dorms after playing late and it was economical and safe.
An Youxi went there with confessing in mind. He was so nervous that when he woke up in the morning he wrote a confession essay and recited it. He never expected that he would meet a completely unexpected acquaintance in the private room.
“Hello Senior, my name is Wu Tianqing. I’m a freshman recruited by the news department this year. I am currently in charge of broadcasting and hosting.”
An Youxi looked at the boy who had a bright smile in front of him, and his inner heart twisted into twists of embarrassment.
Help! What a coincidence!
What kind of fate brought us together here?
Ape dung?
Question: What should I do when a former on-screen boyfriend who used to pursue me for a few months without my knowledge met me face-to-face without realising that it was me he pursued and took the initiative to say hello?
Answer: Have you seen Barbie’s dreamhouse mansion under your feet? I will dig it up and give it to you, no need to be polite. (smiling)2heard from a fellow translator it could be interpreted as a playful way of saying ‘don’t worry about it’ or ‘enjoy the moment’
The only thing An Youxi was thankful for was that the person’s ears were not good, so he did not recognize his hidden identity.
An Youxi nodded lightly, “Hello, I’m An Youxi, the previous President of the News Department. I have something to do, so I won’t be able to accompany you.”
After speaking he turned around and left.
The chat was over before it was even started. Wu Tianqing had never seen such a powerful conversation ender. He was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses and hurried to stop him3An Youxi.
“Speaking of which, I saw the Senior when I was picking up the courier some time ago. I didn’t expect us to meet again so soon. Its really fate.”
An Youxi stared expressionlessly at the arm crossed in front of him, “Oh, then you have a good memory.”
Shit, what’s the situation now? I have been acting so indifferent and arrogant, why doesn’t he back off?
At that time, Wu Tianqing suddenly took a few steps closer and the corners of his mouth gently raised a somewhat evil arc, and he deliberately suppressed his voice and slowly said in a low, bubbly voice, “It’s not that I have a good memory, it’s because the Senior is so handsome that it’s hard not to remember…”
What?
An Youxi was overwhelmed and a thought suddenly popped up in his heart-
This person, he has his eyes on me again?
It shouldn’t be that he doesn’t have a boyfriend? Wasn’t the boy with him that day Xiao Qiao?
He must have been thinking too much.
“Who are you?”4said RNM
Ran Ningmu appeared out of nowhere between them as if he appeared out of thin air.
Both An Youxi and Wu Tianqing were startled and took a step back, but the difference was that Ran Ningmu grabbed An Youxi’s wrist preventing him from moving, on the other hand, Wu Tianqing almost fell down. He swayed a few times before he managed to stabilize himself and looked at Ran Ningmu in disbelief.
“Who are you?” 5said Wu Tianqing
Ran Ningmu blurted out, “I’m his man-”
An Youxi: man what? man ??
“I’m his man and sex friend.”6This I really could not find something more appropriate. One translation says sex friend and the other says boyfriend. But following the next line, I think it is more on friends with benefit kinda friend, so I just left it like the raw.
An Youxi: “…”
Excuse me? What’s with the weird pause in the middle? What kind of friend is a sex friend? Hmm??? Lao Gong, promise me, if you don’t know how to break a sentence, don’t break it okay?
Wu Tianqing’s expression twisted for a moment before he faked a smile and said, “Hello, I’m Wu Tianqing.”
“I see.”
Ran Ningmu insisted on saying ‘I see’ with no intention of introducing himself and dragged An Youxi away.
What a joke, have you ever seen the king of heavens who came down to the mortal world to play introduce himself?
Wu Tianqing looked at them and his eyes darkened.
Xiao Qiao did not know that Wu Tianqing inquired about An Youxi after he went back that day. And after learning that An Youxi was single, Wu Tianqing was secretly happy, because after all , Ran Ningmu was not an easy to person to mess with.
But today it seems that the good things are really not that easy to get hold of…
But it doesn’t matter, the more you fight for something, the more precious the treasure was, wasn’t it?
Ran Ningmu pulled An Youxi and sat down at the table, and the seat next to An Youxi was occupied by Wu Tianqing. Ran Ningmu’s face darkened and he wanted to change seats, but all the seats were filled in the blink of an eye. Ran Ningmu’s expression changed, and he had to sit back in silence.
While waiting or the food to be served, Wu Tianqing tried talking to An Youxi several times, but was interrupted by Ran Ningmu indifferently. An Youxi was sandwiched between the two of them and was embarrassed. His body unconsciously moved closer to Ran Ningmu’s side again and again. When Ran Ningmu noticed An Youxi’s trusting gesture, the little tail in his heart couldn’t help twitching.
After finally waiting for the food to be served, An Youxi breathed a sigh of relief as he thought he would have a good meal, but as soon he thought about it, a piece of braised pork was put into a bowl in front of him.
An Youxi turned his head stiffly and saw Wu Tianqing smiling sweetly at him, “Senior, the braised pork is not bad, try it.”
An Youxi’s heart was aching with grief as he was sure that Wu Tianqing was really interested in him.
Is this person sick? He does not accompany his boyfriend and he has time to flirting with me here?
An Youxi took a deep break and said, “No, Thank you-”
But before he finished speaking, he stared dumfounded at Ran Ningmu who suddenly stretched out a pair of chopsticks from the side and picked up the braised pork in his bowl and put it in his bowl. Then, he directly ate it, chewed it and swallowed it as he nodded his head, “Well, it does taste good.”
After saying that Ran Ningmu picked up a new piece of braised pork from the plate and put it into An Youxi’s bowl as smiled and said softly, “Brother, you should try it too.”
Wu Tianqing was stunned by Ran Ningmu’s brazen behaviour and froze for a long time before his expression darkened as he added a new piece of glutinous rice cake to An Youxi which undoubtedly entered Ran Ningmu’s stomach and then a new piece was took by the other party.
But this time, Ran Ningmu did not put the food into An Youxi’s bowl but brought it directly to An Youxi’s mouth.
“Brother, open your mouth, ah-”
“You, you, what are you doing- woohoo!”
An Youxi stared with wide eyes and was forced to accept Ran Ningmu’s feeding. The sugar water of the glutinous rice cake almost flowed out. An Youxi hurried to catch it with his hands but the corner of his mouth was suddenly covered with a soft tissue. Ran Ningmu stretched out a slender hand, raised An Youxi’s chin with two fingers and carefully wiped the sugar water on his face.
“Don’t use your hands, it’s dirty.” Ran Ningmu casually threw the used tissue on the table.
An Youxi’s entire face was bulging with the glutinous rice cake, his eyes alost popped out and he looked like a little hamster.
He felt that his expression this time must be very stupid because he saw the obvious uncontrollable laughter in Ran Ningmu’s dark eyes.
Bang dang. There was a clanging sound of chopsticks falling to the ground.
The original noisy dining room gradually quietened down, with everyone’s eyes fixed on the table and at the three of them and the room was at pin drop silence.
He didn’t know whether it was his illusion or not, but An Youxi felt the way these people looked at him was like they were watching Su Daji’s7Su Daji is said to be a fictional character in the series of The Poppy War reincarnation.
The little pomelo in An Youxi’s heart was already so pumped up that he was about to faint and he wished he could knock Wu Tianqing unconscious with a knife and tie him to a rocket and send him to the west.
Its all the fault of this stinky man, his innocence had been ruined!
Xia Qianqian couldn’t bear it anymore and secretly messaged An Youxi.
[ Xia Qianqian: What are you three doing? ]
An Youxi suddenly complain like he grabbed a life-saving straw.
[ An Youxi: I don’t know either! At first, Wu Tianqing came over to say hello, he did this and that, I did this and that, and then Ran Ningmu suddenly appeared, and then this and that, we became what we are now! ]
Xia Qianqian thought for a while.
[ Xia Qianqian: OK, I see. ]
He didn’t know what happened, but within a few minutes An Youxi saw that Xia Qianqian called Wu Tianqing out for a chat. And when Wu Tianqing came back, he didn’t have the same awkward behaviour as before and even took the initiative to exchange seats with Xia Qianqian, but his eyes still swept to him from time to time.
An Youxi was overwhelmed with admiration in his heart as he whispered curiously, “What did you tell him?”
Xia Qianqian turned her head as she sided closely, “I just told him-”
Before she could finish her sentence, she saw Ran Ningmu’s gloomy eyes and his throat twitched.
Okay, I’ll just stay away from your wife, you big vinegar.
Xia Qianqian took out her phone speechlessly.
An Youxi was wondering why she suddenly stopped talking halfway, when he saw the screen of his phone light up.
[ Xia Qianqian: I just told him just now that you are Ran Ningmu’s child bride. ]
[ An Youxi: …ah? So what? Is there a problem with child bride? ]
[ Xia Qianqian: Tsk, thanks to all the H novels you’ve read, you still don’t know what a child bride is? ]
Um? An Youxi suddenly realized what kind of child bride she was talking about.
[ An Youxi: Of course, I know it! ]
It’s the kind where one exists just for the sake of pleasing Ran Ningmu, learning everything from a young age, kissing him at a young age, being his first, and then when he became an adult, giving him sex every day and not being allowed to say that he is tired and always posing in whatever position he wanted him…
No, no, the image is too strong, I can’t think about it anymore, I can’t help, but I want to!
Ran Ningmu didn’t expect that An Youxi and Xia Qianqian would chat on the phone instead of whispering anymore.
“Brother, playing with the phone while eating makes it easy to have indigestion.”
An Youxi who was already feeling weak, suddenly heard Ran Ningmu’s voice and immediately in shock dropped his phone and then Ran Ningmu steadily caught it his his palm.
“Be careful, brother, that’s why they say don’t play with your phone during dinner… hmm? What is a child bride?”
An Youxi snapped and snatched his phone, “No-nothing!”
But the way his eyes were moist, his cheeks flushed, it didn’t look like it was ‘nothing’.
Ran Ningmu was thoughtful. “But I seemed have seen my name just now… doesn’t child bride mean wife? So, Xia Qianqian is saying that you are my wife?”
An Youxi’s head buzzed as he thought how a person’s thoughts could be diffused with no logic.
He opened his lips, and was about to say something to redeem himself when the next moment he saw Ran Ningmu tilting his head gently towards him, blinking slightly, curiously as he called out softly, “Wife?”
With a bang, the last string was cut as his head exploded.
An Youxi:…
An Youxi thought he was dead.
The author has something to say:
Ran Ningmu: Wife? Is that you wife? You are my wife? Wife wife wife?
An Youxi: I am dead, you have to burn paper.1Phantom limb pain is the perception of pain or discomfort in a limb that is no longer there.
