When Qiao Shao awoke, he felt refreshed.
It’s been a long time since he slept so well. Just how long has it been?
Unfortunately, he doesn’t even remember this.
——Don’t think about things that don’t need to be thought about.
Qiao Shao stretched his body and heard some soothing light music.
The other side of the bed was already empty, but he hadn’t woken up immediately because of the music.
Seems like He Shen has quite the interest in home-making.
He didn’t think too much about it. He thought it was just a coincidence.
After all, no one in East High knew that he had a problem with silence.
Qiao Shao got out of bed and smelled something cooking when he stepped out of the bedroom.
He stepped into the kitchen and saw a man with his back to him.
He Shen wore a loose T-shirt and grey linen trousers. However, because of the good proportions of his build, even the most shapeless of clothes was made to look casually handsome.
Qiao Shao looked down at himself and — the sourness was so strong, it had began to bubble.
He Shen heard the sound of movement and said, “Good morning.”
Qiao Shao leaned against the door. “Good morning.”
He Shen heard a bit of anger in the child’s voice, and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Qiao Shao looked him up and down and said, “I was thinking …”
He Shen was afraid of burning the omelet in the pan, and moved it around with the spatula. “En?”
Qiao Shao said bitterly, “Is it possible to have your legs in my lifetime?”
With a slam, the spatula hit a stainless steel pan, making a crisp collision sound.
Qiao Shao said quickly, “Can you do it? Don’t force yourself if you can’t cook.”
Although he couldn’t either, the beef soup downstairs was delicious and inexpensive.
He Shen turned off the fire and turned to look at him. “Qiao Shao Shao.”
Qiao Shao’s ears felt tickled.
He Shen stared at him. “Don’t say it’s just my legs. So long as you want it, I’m all yours.”
Qiao Shao’s heart jumped, he said dryly, “I, I still do have a rough approximation of my abilities. No matter how I outperform myself, I’m not going to grow into your build.”
Even if Qiao Shao can now eat and sleep, and has re-entered a period of growth, their skeletal frames were different. No matter how tall Qiao Shao grows, he won’t grow into a figure similar to He Shen’s…
He Shen smiled: “Okay, now, stop tantalizing me. I need to cook.”
Qiao Shao was already uncomfortable to start with, and now his face was slightly hot. “Who’s trying to tantalize you?”
“En,” He Shen has re-ignited the fire and was studying this pan of eggs. “Not you.”
Qiao Shao didn’t want to leave. “I really wasn’t.”
He Shen: “I also don’t know who it was that was admiring my legs so early in the morning.”
Qiao Shao: “!”
He Shen glanced at him from out the corner of his eyes and said, “Turns out you’re a leg man.”
What f*cking ‘leg man’!
Qiao Shao couldn’t deal with him anymore. He turned around and left, cursing him inwardly.
Does this guy speak human! He also said that he didn’t engage in “gaoji” but no gay guy could be as gay as he is!

Qiao Shao went to wash up and by the time he came out breakfast was already on the table.
Lf Vtfc egufv tlw, “Kjraf la, sbe jgf atf bcis qfgrbc lc atf kbgiv ktb tjr fjafc ws mbbxlcu.”
Hljb Vtjb kjr rlifca obg j ktlif. “P’w rb abemtfv.”

Actually, this wasn’t the first time he had eaten a meal He Shen had made. He had eaten it before and it tasted good.
He Shen said, “It really does.”
Qiao Shao stopped his chopsticks.
He Shen said, “It is a very magical poison.”
Qiao Shao closed his eyes; he knew this guy was going to start talking nonsense again. As he usually did, he humored him, “What poison?”
“An…” He Shen lowered his voice. ” ‘Eat the food I cook and think of me every day’ kind of poison … Oh!…”
Qiao Shao had stuffed his mouth with a big piece of bacon.
Qiao Shao stared at him. “He Shen.”
He Shen: “Huh?”
Qiao Shao asked, “Do you want to be in a love relationship?”
He Shen: “…”
Qiao Shao angered: “If you want to be in a relationship then please be a little friendlier to the young ladies and sisters who confess to you. Look carefully. I’m a guy. We’re both guys!”
This guy’s sooooooo amaaazing! Soon, he wouldn’t be able to stand this guy.
He Shen paused and said, “Let’s eat.”
Judging from his voice, was he unhappy?
Qiao Shao was even more unhappy!
If he didn’t know that this guy was a straight man who loved to talk nonsense, he would have thought this guy was a little interested in him!
Uncle Ab did not lie to him — straight men are much more terrible than gay men!
Oh, Uncle Ab was Grandpa’s assistant No. 1, an out-and-out gay guy, which was very common in fashion circles. Because of him, Qiao Shao knew more than his peers.
The breakfast He Shen made was pretty good. Simple but very satisfactory
There doesn’t seem to be anything this guy wasn’t good at. No matter what, so long as he does it seriously, he won’t make a bad job of it.
People really were different from each other. Some people were born as Heaven’s favored son.
Qiao Shao was very happy with the meal. When he saw that He Shen was still unhappy, he couldn’t help but try to coax him.
“You know…” Qiao Shao started a conversation.
He Shen: “En?”
Qiao Shao said, “I had a dream last night.”
He Shen paused, looked at him and asked, “What dream?”
Qiao Shao was almost done eating. He simply put down his chopsticks and said, “I dreamt of you.”
There was immediately a smile in He Shen’s eyes. “Dreamt of me doing what?”
Qiao Shao thought back to it and said with a smile, “I dreamt we were in a haunted house. A white ghost was flashing past and it made you tremble in fear.”
He Shen: “………”
Qiao Shao’s eyes were bent into a crescents. “I hurriedly protected you and said to you, ‘don’t be afraid, He Shen Shen. Shao Ge won’t let that ghost eat you.’ ”
He Shen set down his chopsticks as well. He raised his lips and smiled. The smile emerged from the bottom of his heart. It was a real smile that concealed nothing.
When Qiao Shao saw it, he was dazed for a moment, as if he had been infected as well and his heart was full of joy.
He Shen said, “You were talking in your sleep last night.”
Qiao Shao felt timid. “Ah, what did you say?”
He couldn’t have leaked out his family background in his sleep, right?
“You said …” He Shen said slowly, “Shen Ge, you’re so nice.”
Qiao Shao opened his eyes wide and as though infected by Song “silly husky” Yixu, said with a lisp, “Impodibble.”
He Shen pondered for a moment. “Oh, that’s not right. You said ‘Shen Ge, you’re awesome.”
Qiao Shao: “!”
“That doesn’t seem to be it either. I remember now!” He Shen curled his right hand into a fist and slammed it onto his left palm, “You said … He Shen, I like you.”
Qiao Shao: “………………”
From his second sentence, Qiao Shao already knew this guy was talking nonsense.
He sneered. “I remember it too, what I said was… He Shen, I’ll kill you!”
He then pounced on him, ready to fight with his all against this nonsense-talking scoundrel.
He Shen put his arms around his waist and said, “Okay, okay. Watch that you don’t trip and fall.”
Qiao Shao originally intended to strangle this guy. Who could have known that when his waist was touched, he suddenly shivered. “Don’t touch me there. That tickles!”
He Shen’s entire head heated up and his hands couldn’t behave themselves.
Qiao Shao immediately struggled. “Don’t touch there, I’m ticklish! Hey, He Shen, you …”
He Shen knew it was a bit dangerous, but couldn’t help it. He touched his ribs.
This time, Qiao Shao begged even more frantically. He laughed and cried, “Don’t tickle me, don’t! Ah, I really can’t stand this!”
He Shen’s throat wouldn’t work. “Call me ‘Ge’ and I’ll let you.”
“No way!” Qiao Shao was almost tickled to death.
He Shen did his best to appear serious. “Then, you’ve forced my hand. I’ll have to count how many ribs you have.”
Qiao Shao was terrified. He gasped, “Shen Ge! I was wrong. Shen Ge!”
He Shen: “…”
He can’t stir up any more trouble. If he did, he was going to commit a grave mistake.
He let go of Qiao Shao, got up and said, “I’ll wash the dishes.”
Qiao Shao had just been laughing and shouting. His voice was now hoarse. He cursed him in his heart. ‘He Shen Shen, you just wait for me!’
He Shen looked back at him. “I feel like you’re cursing me out.”
Qiao Shao: “………………”
He was afraid this guy has managed to bore into his heart!
They both got up very early. After all, they still had matters to handle today.
Qiao Shao finished his homework for school before he followed He Shen to cram for the math assessment.
He said it was for the league competition, but he felt like the questions He Shen chose for him weren’t that far outside the scope of their lessons.
Qiao Shao said, “This league competition is a bit shoddy.”
No wonder the bigshots didn’t want to participate.
He Shen said, “It’s difficult to get the base points.”
For lots of people, it wasn’t that they weren’t smart enough or that they didn’t study, but because they couldn’t overcome their carelessness.
With a nimble mind and conscientious study, it was not difficult to get 130 points in math. But the last twenty points weren’t dependent on whether you knew how to answer the question or not.
How much was lost because of carelessness? If each student checked their exercise sheets, they would be astonished at just how much.
As was his habit, Qiao Shao bit the end of his pen. “I’ll take this very seriously.”
This could be considered as his advantage over others. He was patient and he could go over a problem over and over again to solidify his knowledge. Even if he can’t do the super high-level questions, he could guarantee that what he has learned, he has learned well.
He Shen rubbed his hair and said, “You’re doing fine.”
Qiao Shao shook his head and said, “Don’t keep touching my hair. It’ll be annoying if it gets messed up.”
He Shen was afraid he would affect his problem solving, so he didn’t tease him any longer and only said, “Write your homework.”
From 7:30 am to 4:30 pm, the two never left the room except for lunch and a half-hour noon break.
Qiao Shao didn’t stop until He Shen said, “I think it’s almost time for you to go back to school.”
Qiao Shao said suddenly realized, “It’s this late already?”
For his own personal reasons, he has been exposed to a lot of topics in the field of psychology. He knew that there was a word called ‘flow’, which meant to be ‘in the zone’.
Tsk tsk. Had he been in the zone all day? Solving math problems, once you get started, it was really addictive!
Qiao Shao packed up his things. “Thanks a lot for today!”
He Shen began to have some wicked thoughts. “I just get a thank you?”
Qiao Shao looked at his messy collar and said, “Then I’ll tie your necktie for you again.”
He Shen didn’t speak anymore. He hung his head as he looked at the child approaching him on tiptoe. He really wanted to lower his head and…
No, this won’t do.
If he kissed him, he might just scare him to tears.
Qiao Shao returned to school and found the atmosphere in their dorm room to be extremely tense.
On the desk directly opposite the door, Chen Su and Blue Hair sat face to face.
When he opened the door, he heard Chen Su ask in a low voice, “This is your homework?”
Wei Jiayu said, “Just the fact that I could do it is already pretty good!”
Chen Su said, “With that kind of attitude, do you really want to improve?”
Wei Jiayu said irritably, “If I could answer my homework by myself, what would I need you for!”
Chen Su told him, “I’m not your nanny!”
Wei Jiayu said fiercely, “Who the f*ck would want a nanny like you!”
Qiao Shao saw that this tutoring session would quickly turn into a fight. “That … I’m back.”
As soon as he spoke, he realized that his voice was quite hoarse.
Chen Su no longer paid any attention to Wei Jiayu and asked him, “Do you have a cold?”
Qiao Shao said, “No.”
Chen Su asked again, “Why is your voice so hoarse?”
“En…” Qiao Shao flushed. How could he say he had been tickled by He Shen until his voice turned hoarse? He said embarrassedly, “Sigh, nothing’s the matter, really.”
Wei Blue Hair’s radar ping-ed and he suddenly understood.
Shen Ge was truly a beast! Qiao Shao’s voice had turned hoarse from screaming!
This is also……
Stop thinking, brain! Don’t follow that train of thought!
He glanced at Chen Su. This Four-eyed Chen just had to keep asking. Why the f*ck do you have to keep asking!
Wei Jiayu slapped his hand against the table and said, “Hurry up and check my homework.”
XD blue hair is constantly making wild assumptions even though he just got set straight by He Shen
I wonder when ShaoShao is going to ask if he’s gay again. He’s sending out all the signals!
