Before moving into Ruan Song’s house after something happened at Ren Qinming’s house, he often used the excuse of asking for help on his homework to openly and honestly go to Ruan Song’s room with his backpack under Mother Ruan’s watchful eye.

Once the door to Ruan Song’s room was closed, they would spend several hours, even an entire afternoon, together.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Sometimes, Mother Ruan would come in with a fruit tray, wanting to bring them some fruits. She had to knock on the door and ask for permission, but most of the time, the answer was a refusal.

Inside, Ren Qinming would say, “No need, Auntie. Song Ge is tutoring me on my homework, he thinks I’m dumb. He’s so upset that I can’t eat anything!” xTNrYb

Thinking about it, Ren Qinming didn’t lie.

Ruan Song indeed had no appetite, was truly upset, and was indeed tutoring Ren Qinming with his “homework.”

“I told you to be gentle! You’re poking holes in my stomach!”

“Alright, it’s mainly because your voice is so pleasant, I can’t resist…”

“If you can’t resist, then don’t do it! What did you eat to grow that long, it’s too big.”

Every time this happened, Ren Qinming’s head felt like it was hit, and his heart swelled as if it was about to explode. He would obediently nuzzle under Ruan Song’s chin, then, as if he were a puppy, softly and stickily kiss Ruan Song. Then he would every so often begin to exert his strength on the other’s waist again, “Don’t you like that I’m big, it’s way better than the toy you bought that doesn’t even move…”

After the first time, Ruan Song accidentally indulged in meat, it was like a button had been pressed. To relieve himself, he had also attempted to secretly purchase one online, but it was clear that the results weren’t good at all.

If you were to ask why Ren Qinming would continuously be willing to treat Ruan Song well until the very end, maybe it’s because he already had a realization in his heart. 2agMSi

Someone like Ruan Song, who should have been hanging in the sky, was willing to take off his clothes and let him press down on him. It was already a miraculous thing, so what more could he ask for?

Ruan Song recalled that during that period, the two of them were like sex addicts, their minds were empty and they were mostly driven by impulses. Besides studying, they just did it.

Most of the time, it was Ren Qinming who seduced him.

He would rub his leg under the desk, touch his waist, or directly reach out and touch his fingers. IL5t6x

Every time, Ruan Song warned himself not to continue indulging in this pleasure, but every time he turned his head and met those deep eyes that hid a spark, it felt like something was poking at his heart, and he couldn’t help but want to fulfill his desires.

Of course, occasionally Ruan Song also wanted it.

He didn’t do anything, he just stared until Ren Qinming understood what he wanted.

The first time he did it, Ruan Song originally thought that Ren Qinming’s brain, one that couldn’t even understand math functions, would require a long time to figure out.

But the reality was that as soon as the bait was thrown into the water before it even sank, the fish were already fighting to bite the hook like thunder from heaven stirred fire from the earth. DwAljd

(T/N-Originally meaning lightning (Heavenly Thunder) and volcanoes (Earthly Fire), it is now often borrowed in romance novels. Heavenly Thunder refers to male desire, and Earthly Fire refers to women’s desire (but ofc in this case male). Therefore, when used together, it often refers to the irresistible primitive instinctive desires that nature has given to humans.)

One of the most memorable times for Ruan Song was when they couldn’t resist and pushed and shoved their way into the cubicle in a long abandoned men’s bathroom in their school’s laboratory building.

Ruan Song saw him casually pull out a small square packet from his pocket, his face burning hot. “Is there ever a moment when your mind isn’t filled with these things?”

That was also the first time Ren Qinming took the bait, trembling with excitement as he tore the square packet and said in a hoarse voice, “Whenever I see you, my mind is filled with only this.” 05iz1o

To say that Ruan Song didn’t have any vanity would be a lie.

Every time Ren Qinming acted shamelessly like this, Ruan Song felt both embarrassed and thrilled. He pinched Ren Qinming’s cheeks and said, “If only you could redirect this energy towards studying, I guarantee your grades would… Ah, I told you to slow down!”

Ren Qinming held onto Ruan Song’s waist with one hand and lifted his slender, fair leg with the other, apologizing for his words but burying himself deeper and deeper each time.

He knew that Ruan Song enjoyed it, but he just wanted to save face. Ruan Song’s words of rejection were more like flirtatious banter. TLdIC7

Even this time, it was the same.

It was clearly Ruan Song’s idea, but Ren Qinming immediately pulled out a big makeup bag from his backpack, and whatever they needed was inside.

Ruan Song only felt that he was about to be angered out of drunkenness. “I can understand bringing it when participating in the variety show, but you still brought it knowing we were going to climb a mountain and pitch a tent tonight?”

Everyone else was desperately trying to lighten their backpack load, but then there was Ren Qinming, still as naive as ever, looking at him and saying, “What if?” fvKusB

Ruan Song’s nose suddenly felt a pang of sadness. He tossed his pants and swiftly flipped over, switching positions so that Ruan Song was now straddling Ren Qinming’s waist. He took a deep breath, then fiercely undone his belt, saying, “Do you remember that we’ve already broken up?”

Both of Ren Qinming’s hands supported the other’s back, tilting his head back and swallowing hard, his voice hoarse, “…I remember.”

“Well, if you remember, then do it properly! At least make it better than the new toy I bought!” Ruan Song, feeling a bit tipsy from the alcohol and knowing they might forget the next day, decided to let go.

Ren Qinming looked at Ruan Song, who was preparing everything for him, and asked with a serious gaze, “If it’s better than a toy, can you continue using it for a longer time?” MJpNT8

Ruan Song struggled to put everything in, and the pain made his eyebrows furrow. It had been so long since they last did this, and suddenly accepting Ren Qinming made him feel like his breath was going to stop. “…Make me comfortable first before you say anything!”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

The next morning, Ruan Song heard someone outside rustling the tent and calling his name, causing him to open his eyes.

The hangover made his head pound, and he reached out to the empty spot next to him, feeling around for a while. Ren Qinming was nowhere to be found. K4IgpE

A crisp male voice came in from outside again, “Brother Song, are you awake? It’s nine o’clock, and the director’s team is urging us to get up and prepare to descend the mountain.”

Ruan Song rested his hand on his forehead for a few seconds, his brain cells sluggishly recognizing the voice of the boy, “Is that Wan Qingyue?”

Wan Qingyue sounded somewhat guilty and whispered through the tent seam, “It’s me, Brother Song. I came to apologize to you. Can I come in…?”

Ruan Song laid limp in the sleeping bag, feeling completely drained. First, he struggled to recall why Wan Qingyue wanted to apologize to him, and then, with a throat that felt like it was about to burst into flames, he spoke up, “Come in, and bring me a glass of water.” nl3sOD

Wan Qingyue immediately responded, “Oh, Okay! Brother Song, wait for me, I’ll be right there!”

Both of them were hungover, but it seemed that the younger ones recovered faster after all.

Ruan Song struggled to drag himself out of the sleeping bag, feeling like a walking corpse. His mind was sluggish, and his whole body felt like it had been beaten, with not a single joint spared.

Outside, Wan Qingyue, who was tasked with pouring water for them, was already moving swiftly. In no time, he brought the water, and it was still hot. Ruan Song took it in his hands, and it emitted a faint wisp of steam. 3a56Dh

Wan Qingyue awkwardly sat on the little stool near the entrance of the tent and lowly said, “This morning, I made up for the live broadcast that I didn’t watch yesterday. I saw Brother Qinming specially prepare a thermos and kettle for you, so I figured you liked drinking hot water.”

Ruan Song, who had just finished putting on their clothes, sat sluggishly in the sleeping bag and blinked. He cleared his throat and asked, “Wasn’t the kettle prepared by the production team?”

Wan Qingyue shook his head repeatedly with a puzzled look on his face. “No, Brother Qinming brought it! None of the other rooms have one…”

Ruan Song calmly responded with an “Oh,” as if he didn’t find it strange at all. He didn’t mind his messy hair and asked, “Where is Ren Qinming?” hA6pdg

Although Wan Qingyue was sitting on a small stool, he was taller than Ruan Song. However, Ruan Song’s nonchalant demeanor made him look like a little kid in kindergarten.

When the teacher asked a question, he should answer honestly without hesitation, saying, “Brother Qinming and Brother Zheng went to fetch water together. The water pressure didn’t come up in the morning, and the nearby water pump stopped working.”

After drinking a cup of hot water, Ruan Song felt much better. He furrowed his brows and rubbed his temples, saying, “You don’t need to apologize for anything. I’ve completely blanked out. I don’t remember anything from last night.”

Wan Qingyue clearly looked puzzled, but quickly composed himself and spoke seriously and earnestly to Ruan Song, “Even if you forgot, I still need to apologize. I said a lot of things I shouldn’t have because I was being presumptuous. This morning, Brother Zheng and Brother Yi also talked to me, saying that as an outsider, even if I feel uncomfortable, I shouldn’t interfere when you two are still in a romantic relationship. It’s difficult for even a fair judge to meddle in family affairs, let alone me, who is a fan of Brother Qinming. So, I don’t want to use the excuse of being drunk to justify my careless words. The brothers’ advice is right…” VUHr3K

Ruan Song nodded and asked, “So what did you say?”

Wan Qingyue had mentally prepared himself for Ruan Song’s anger, but he didn’t expect Ruan Song to have completely forgotten.

He couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time. He couldn’t repeat everything to Ruan Song, so he brushed off his clothes and stood up from the small stool, saying, “If you forgot, then forget it! It was just some things that you shouldn’t have heard. Don’t be mad at me, Brother Song.”

Ruan Song, “I forgot why I was even mad.” mpb2vG

Wan Qingyue was completely thrown off guard by Ruan Song’s unexpected response. Feeling at a loss for words, he stood up and made his way to open the tent. “As long as you’re not mad, then… then I’ll go outside first! Brother Song, hurry and get up. They’ll be back with water soon, and we’ll get ready to head down the mountain.”

“Got it.”

Just as Ruan Song was about to climb out of the sleeping bag, his legs suddenly went weak. His already dizzy head started spinning again, and he couldn’t help but cry out in surprise.

If it weren’t for Wan Qingyue’s quick reaction, Ruan Song would have probably fallen straight onto that small stool. Wolfe2

Ruan Song had a look of disbelief on his face, gripping Wan Qingyue’s arm tightly. He wondered why he couldn’t exert any force with his waist!

Wan Qingyue steadied Ruan Song inside the narrow tent, still shaken. “…Do you have to go through this every time you wake up, Brother Song?”

Ruan Song’s entire head was filled with thoughts of “his waist hurt, his legs hurt, his butt also hurts,” and he hadn’t had time to respond when the entrance to the tent was opened by Ren Qinming from the outside.

The three men looked at each other for a while. 9dRrZz

Ruan Song quickly learned from the previous lesson and grabbed the child’s hand, preventing him from pulling away in fear. “If you let go, I’ll fall again!”

Wan Qingyue managed to restrain his reflexive reaction.

However, despite the explanation, Ren Qinming’s expression remained grim. The first thing he did upon entering was snatch Ruan Song away from Wan Qingyue, using his body to firmly block him.

Wan Qingyue originally didn’t want to lose face, which was why he came when Ren Qinming wasn’t there. Who would have thought he’d make a fool of himself again and get caught in such a scene again? nGgUd2

All he could do was palely stare at Ren Qinming’s departing figure and awkwardly explain, “I-I didn’t do anything… It was Ruan Song himself…”

Ren Qinming interrupted, “Why did you let him while looking like that?”

Ruan Song was caught off guard by the accusation. “…Huh?”

Ren Qinming used a thin blanket to wrap around his bottom half and, with a dark face, repeated, “I asked you why you let Wan Qingyue in without wearing pants?” XpAkGt

Wan Qingyue, Ruan Song, “?”
