That night, the two had a very intense session. It was even more over the top than their first time.
Before Yuan Rui got together with Zheng Qiuyang, he had no sexual experience at all. He was so nervous and stiff on their first night, that even the shower beforehand took him half an hour. Zheng Qiuyang never thought he’d be sleeping with another man either, so he was just as nervous when Yuan Rui was in the shower. He kept searching for tutorials on his phone.
When Yuan Rui was finally done showering, he hesitated at the bathroom entrance for a while. Then, he walked over slowly, sitting on the bed as he wiped his hair. He didn’t say anything, he didn’t dare to look at Zheng Qiuyang either.
Zheng Qiuyang put down his phone. He looked at him for a little, then teased him, “I forgot to tell you, I’m a sadist.”
Yuan Rui instantly whipped his head around to look at him with a frightened expression.
Zheng Qiuyang thought, Sigh, let’s not scare him anymore. He moved, wanting to get closer, maybe go in for a kiss first or something.
But Yuan Rui let out an “ah” as he dodged to the side, which caused him to fall onto the ground pathetically.
Zheng Qiuyang, “……”
He wanted to explain that it was a joke. But Yuan Rui got back up slowly, he said in a low voice, “It’s—it’s okay, I can endure it.”
“……You’re not scared anymore?”
Yuan Rui stated a little pitifully, “A little bit. Can you be a bit gentle for today?”
Words were stuck in Zheng Qiuyang’s throat. If he’d known how easy it was to trick Yuan Rui, he wouldn’t have made such a joke.
Yuan Rui scooted half a step forward. He kneeled on one knee beside the bed. He patted his shoulder and said very cautiously, “I like you so I should be able to accept your fetishes, I’ll try my hardest to be a good masochist partner.”
In the end, that night, Zheng Qiuyang became the gentlest he’d ever been in his life, he was afraid of any pain that he might possibly inflict on Yuan Rui. His skills were more than sufficient to please Yuan Rui, plus, he had the thought of using this so that Yuan Rui could never leave him. Though it was a thought he might’ve never even believed in himself, the fact that he came up with the plan to tie the other down with his skill in bed.
When Yuan Rui woke up the second morning, he expressed, “So the smut books weren’t lying. I thought I was actually going to die, it felt so good.” Zheng Qiuyang acted very calm in front of him. Though once he was out of his sight, he danced joyfully as he cheered silently.
When the two just got together, it happened to be New Year’s. Yuan Rui had no work and Zheng Qiuyang didn’t go to work either. Their daily life basically consisted of eating and sex, all the way until the sixteenth of January, when Yuan Rui had to go back to work. By then, they’d already used up 2 big boxes of Durex.
There was nothing better than having absolute compatibility on both the heart and body with your lover.
Zheng Qiuyang was sure he’d met his true love. He loved both Yuan Rui’s personality and his body.
Meeting Yuan Rui was the greatest miracle to ever happen to him.
The only pitiful thing was that Yuan Rui had never shown jealousy towards his ex-girlfriends. In the beginning, he purposely avoided those topics, he was afraid that Yuan Rui would mind then. Then, he slowly realized that Yuan Rui didn’t seem to care about who he had dated before.
He always thought Yuan Rui was very open-minded. Only that night did he realize, Yuan Rui was just enduring the thoughts.

But why didn’t Yuan Rui want to say anything?

Yuan Rui replied, “He’s just too lazy to delete it, it wasn’t on purpose.”
Fang Shiqing was speechless, “Look at you, you’re still taking his side! It was enough that you didn’t shred him to pieces, but you let him do you? You’re helpless.”
Yuan Rui said in a low voice, “I didn’t…”
“You didn’t? Why is your voice so hoarse? Who you trying to lie to, you think I’m dumb?”
“……”
Fang Shiqing added, “He won’t think of you as close-minded from your jealousy. He’s probably over the moon from it. Think about it, when you said you were jealous last night, wasn’t he a lot more energetic later?”
“……Yeah.”
Fang Shiqing chuckled. “That’s right. Let me tell you, that’s what those 1’s are all like. They say you don’t need to overthink because they aren’t in contact with their exes anymore, but they’re just hoping that you’d notice. The more you’re like that, the more it proves how much you like them. Does that make sense?”
Yuan Rui asked curiously, “So Wang Qi is still in contact with his ex-wife?”
“……”
Yuan Rui realized he said something he shouldn’t. He quickly backtracked. “Probably not, don’t overthink it.”
“……”
Fang Shiqing changed the topic, “Let me give you another warning, don’t meet up with your first love Meng Lai privately, or have any private contact with him. Right now, Zheng Qiuyang might explode just from hearing that name.”
Yuan Rui was puzzled, “I don’t think so, he didn’t say anything when I told him about Meng Lai and me.”
Fang Shiqing let out a hmph from his nose. “You don’t believe in me? Then try it, if Zheng Qiuyang can endure it, then I’ll change my surname from Fang to Yuan for you.”
Yuan Rui was a bit unsettled. “I got it, thank you.”
Fang Shiqing hung up. His eyes rolled around as he thought a bit. Then he made the decision, he’s going to take a sneak peek at Wang Qi’s phone when he gets back home tonight.
Yuan Rui spaced out as he laid on the bed. He sat up slowly, his waist was so sore. Zheng Qiuyang was so intense last night, Fang Shiqing’s words really did make sense.
He was busy recording a show for the entire day yesterday so he had no work today. Yuan Rui washed the bedsheet and cleaned up the house. He looked around and found that there was nothing to do. Seeing the low stock of vegetables and fruits in the fridge, he decided to make a trip to the supermarket.
When the elevator descended from the top and opened its door on his level, inside stood his neighbors from upstairs.
“……”
Bai Tu took the initiative to speak first, “Yuan Rui, are you going out?”
Yuan Rui was very nervous upon seeing his idol. He stuttered, “Yea-yeah, I’m going out.”
Bai Tu smiled at him.
Yuan Rui’s heart jumped thumpingly. He spaced off as he stared at Bai Tu’s handsome face.
Liang Xi, who was also inside the elevator said, “So are you getting in or not?”
Yuan Rui came back to his senses. He awkwardly made little steps into the elevator, he greeted Liang Xi, “Hello, Liang-Ge.”
Liang Xi closed the door.
Bai Tu asked him, “Are you going out for work?”
Yuan Rui couldn’t help but squeal inside, Bai Tu was talking to him, AHHHH!
“No, I’m off today, I’m going to the supermarket.”
Bai Tu replied, “What a coincidence, I’m going to the supermarket too. Let’s go together.”
Yuan Rui was so happy he was about to pass out.
Liang Xi looked at him, then let out an annoyed hmph.
The three stepped out the door. Liang Xi said, “Then I’ll get going, you two head to the supermarket.”
Yuan Rui was very respectful, “Goodbye, Liang-Ge.”
Liang Xi side-eyed him, he didn’t seem to be fond of him. Yuan Rui felt awkward, he didn’t dare to move an inch.
Bai Tu cut in, “You should leave now, it’s already eleven, you might be late.”
“It’s okay, how about I drop you off at the supermarket first?”
Bai Tu refused the offer, “No need, it’s not very far. Yuan Rui and I can just walk there.”
Liang Xi side-eyed Yuan Rui again.
Yuan Rui didn’t really know what to do.
Bai Tu hurried him, “Go go.”
Liang Xi looked left and right, seeing that no one else was around, he said, “Then I’m going, wifey.”
Bai Tu, “……”
Yuan Rui, “……”
Liang Xi drove away.
Bai Tu felt awkward, “Well, let’s go to the supermarket now.”
Yuan Rui was completely caught off guard, “I-I-I actually have very bad hearing.”
Bai Tu, “……”
He spoke a bit hopelessly, “It’s fine. I don’t think you’d be the type to spread rumors around.”
Yuan Rui raised his hand as he exclaimed, “Yep! I won’t spread it around!”
Bai Tu smiled. “Let’s go.”
Yuan Rui wore his black-framed glasses again, while Bai Tu didn’t put on any disguise. He was very carefree, it seemed like he didn’t mind getting recognized. If someone stared at him, he’d simply give them a polite smile. Maybe it was because of how aloof he seemed that no one came up to ask him any questions.
Yuan Rui pushed the shopping cart as he followed behind him. He was full of admiration and awe for the other. He felt like Bai Tu was honestly a true male god.
How did his male god end up with Liang Xi? Although Liang Xi was quite handsome, he seemed so carefree, anyone could clearly tell what a hooligan he was.
His male god was probably tricked into it, right? Ah, poor male god.
As Bai Tu placed a box of tofu into the cart, he saw Yuan Rui looking at him with a sympathizing expression.
He misunderstood Yuan Rui’s gaze and explained in a low voice, “I got a new role recently that I need to lose some weight for, so I’ve been just eating vegetables recently.”
Yuan Rui thought, He’s already so famous yet he’s still so devoted to work. What a good person. Yet he got tricked by Liang Xi, poor male god.
T/N: “Although Liang Xi was quite handsome, he seemed so carefree, anyone could clearly tell what a hooligan he was.”
I haven’t finished the novel Bai Tu’s in, but I’ve gotten over halfway through it and I honestly find nothing wrong with this statement LMAO
Why is Yuan Rui so cute now? He’s like adorably stupid.
