Throwing the mobile phone away, Lin Dongyang said furiously, “I have discovered that you’re really wicked. I asked you to be lighter, but you made it even harder!”
“Otherwise, how can the blood circulate?” Qiao Yichen said with a straight face, as if the one who did the prank just now wasn’t him.
“You did it on purpose,” Lin Dongyang realized that he didn’t have the ability to show off his strength right now. He could only lie on the bed like a caterpillar. He turned over to mull over the issue. If he couldn’t fight back with his hands then he could only verbally take advantage. So, he deliberately said, “Are you having any improper thoughts about me? You had to let my mom misunderstand me twice.”
Qiao Yichen ruthlessly wanted to remove the short man’s two arms just because he had touched him, and because Lin Dongyang had said those words, he ended up bringing upon himself this kind of unexpected calamity. It was enough to see that Qiao Yichen, except for the normal arm-around-shoulders between friends, extremely despised being mentally and physically intimate with other men. At this moment Lin Dongyang stubbornly courted disaster by provoking his disgust, just for a moment of pleasure.
But these thoughts were just what Lin Dongyang thought in his heart.
As expected, Qiao Yichen responded to him by ravaging him even harder.
Lin Dongyang screamed in pain. “You are still addicted to playing!” He took advantage of Qiao Yichen’s unpreparedness, reached out and pinched Qiao Yichen’s thigh. Lin Dongyang knew in his heart how much strength he used this time, he really pinched him hard!
Qiao Yichen was caught off guard by this unexpected move. His expression was somewhat fierce as he grabbed Lin Dongyang’s hand and pressed it under his leg. Then, he gritted his teeth and rubbed his own pinched thigh. He didn’t say a word, just stared at Lin Dongyang with hatred.
The great revenger Lin Dongyang smiled smugly, and didn’t pull back his hand that was being held down. So, all of his ‘weaknesses’ were exposed in front of Qiao Yichen.
You think this is the end? Dream on!
Qiao Yichen’s eyes scanned Lin Dongyang from head to toe as if he was examining his prey. His waist was injured and couldn’t be touched and in this position, the pain if he hit his *ss wouldn’t be strong. So, he finally dropped his clutches on Lin Dongyang’s face…
Aim for the target and give it a good pinch!
“Qiao Yichen, can you do something more human?! What are you pinching my face for?!”
Qiao Yichen ignored him. After pinching, the villain slid off the bed and ran out of the bedroom. He turned a deaf ear to the cursing behind him, and the sound of Lin Dongyang’s gnashing teeth! Despite his waist injury, he insisted on getting up and settling accounts with him!
As a result, the b*stard actually entered the bathroom and locked the door!
Lin Dongyang: “…”
He banged on the door a few times, only to hear the sound of the shower from inside. The b*stard had actually pinched him and then fled inside to take a shower, shameless!

He sent a message to Zhu Wenbo, saying that he was staying out tonight and wouldn’t return to the dormitory. There was an immediate reply, not asking him where he was, but just saying: [Okay, then pay attention and be careful with your waist.]
Lin Dongyang’s brain circuit didn’t understand the deeper meaning at first and instead he asked: [How did you know that my waist was injured?]
Zhu Wenbo sent over a shocked emoji, accompanied by the sentence: [I just said so casually, you really…] followed by a series of thought-provoking ellipses, making it seem elusive.
Only then did Lin Dongyang suddenly realize the hidden meaning and scolded: [When did you become as dirty as Fatty! What about being a three-good student who only knows how to study!]
At this moment, the bathroom door opened. Qiao Yichen walked out with a single bath towel around his waist.
After the mutual pinching with Lin Dongyang just now, he took advantage of the situation and ran out of the bedroom. But, he forgot to take a change of clothes. Maybe it was because he was used to living here, he subconsciously didn’t notice this small problem. After washing, he could only wrap the bath towel around his waist and walk to the wardrobe in the bedroom to rummage through the clean clothes.
Qiao Yichen felt a little silly that he had played a childish game of hide-and-seek with someone.
Lin Dongyang, who had been waiting for him to come out, stepped forward and leaned against the wardrobe. With a glowing face, he looked like he wanted to settle old accounts. But after the shower, Qiao Yichen had actually reverted back to his normal behaviour, acting as noble as a white lotus that could only be viewed from afar, paying no attention to him.
En? Took a shower and washed off all the dirt of the mortal world?
Qiao Yichen stood up straight, wearing only his bath towel, without the slightest feeling of unease, and even asked in return, “What are you looking at?”
Lin Dongyang, who was originally the one in control, was inexplicably embarrassed by the question, because Qiao Yichen’s mermaid line was being flaunted right in front of his eyes, making his comparison psychology begin to stir.
Lin Dongyang looked away from the other party and muttered in a small voice, “No wonder I am staring at you, you do have a nice figure.”
Such a figure couldn’t be achieved overnight, not only did it require persistence and self-discipline, but also determination! You had to be determined enough to enjoy the soreness that came with abusing muscles. Although Lin Dongyang had a well-proportioned body, he was only thin and had few strong muscles. He only went to the gym occasionally to play basketball and run, but it wasn’t regular.
To be honest, he was envious!
Qiao Yichen took out some clothes from the wardrobe and threw them at Lin Dongyang, nonchalantly covering his head.
“You have a waist injury and the sofa is too soft to sleep on. Sleep on the bed.”
Lin Dongyang tugged off the clothes covering his head and asked flatteringly, “Are you willing to give up the bed for me to sleep?”
When he first came here, he clearly remembered that the bed was a forbidden place to touch! He had slept on the sofa for a night because of this, but now Qiao Yichen had actually taken the initiative to give up the bed for him to sleep. Lin Dongyang couldn’t help but be surprised.
Qiao Yichen glanced at him lightly. “Who said I would give up the bed?”
Lin Dongyang: “… Sharing the bed?”
Qiao Yichen urged. “Don’t say it like that, it’s disgusting. Go take a shower and then go to sleep.”
Looking at the big bed, Lin Dongyang agreed and took the clothes that Qiao Yichen had just thrown to him into the bathroom. Because the medicine had just been applied to his waist, he paid special attention to make sure that it didn’t touch the water when he took a shower.
“F*ck! No underwear again!”
There was an anxious roar from the bathroom. Qiao Yichen, who had already changed into his pajamas and was lying on the bed, heard it clearly. The curved corners of his mouth and the smile overflowing in his eyes betrayed the coldness he had just pretended to have.
Seeing something light up out of the corner of his eye, Qiao Yichen looked over suspiciously and fell into contemplation with just a glance.
Lin Dongyang came out of the bathroom with a gloomy face, then turned off the light in the living room and walked into the bedroom. Without saying a word, he lay down on the bed again, and repositioned himself into the most comfortable position he could find given his current condition.
The two meter wide bed was big enough for him to toss and turn. It wasn’t even a problem to lie horizontally. Unfortunately, he lacked the strength and could only lie on one side like a quiet corpse, while Qiao Yichen slept on the other side by the door.
After seeing him get in bed, Qiao Yichen pressed the switch in front of the bed. Then, the bedroom was instantly plunged into darkness. It was so dark he couldn’t even see his fingers, and all that could be heard was the sound of the quilt rustling.
Lin Dongyang didn’t have a bit of sleepiness. He slept too long during the day, slept until he woke up naturally in the morning, and comfortably took a nap for two hours in the afternoon. Now, he could only stare blindly into the darkness.
“Are you tired?” Lin Dongyang asked quietly.
“Not tired.”
“Why don’t we talk?” Sleeping in the same bed with Qiao Yichen for the first time was really awkward. Although the distance between them was large enough to cram another two people in.
“Okay, so tell me about your blind date,” Qiao Yichen nonsensically turned the topic to this.
Lin Dongyang: “… Telling you this for what?”
“I’m interested.”
Lin Dongyang couldn’t see Qiao Yichen’s expression at the moment. Since he was the one who proposed to talk to relieve his boredom, he didn’t hide it and said, “Well, it’s actually my second aunt. My mother is a primary school language teacher. Usually, teaching classes makes her quite busy and she doesn’t have time to manage my blind dates. But my second aunt is different, she is a housewife and every day at home she has nothing to do, so she likes to be a matchmaker. As long as the young people in our family are in their twenties and are single, they’ve been visited by her several times. That’s why I don’t want to go home.”
“Then, you’ve been on several blind dates?” Qiao Yichen said in a light tone.
“One. My dad ended up being too embarrassed to refute my second aunt, so he made me go once,” Lin Dongyang finally added another sentence. “That girl was very interesting.”
“Really?” Qiao Yichen leaned towards the middle of the bed in a seemingly casual manner, but his hand resting on the outside of the quilt quietly touched Lin Dongyang’s side.
“Aiyou! Is there something wrong with you? You pinched me again!”
Qiao Yichen acted as if nothing had happened. “Go on, why didn’t it work out?”
Speaking of this, Lin Dongyang laughed out loud. “There was no emotional foundation. I was talking to a person who was worried about an ex-boyfriend. How big my heart is. Originally, I wanted to answer the wishes that my second aunt and my dad symbolically expressed. It was up to us whether we succeeded or not anyway, and it would save me from the constant nagging in my ear. I thought it was just me being forced, but it turned out the girl was even more reluctant than I was.”
Lin Dongyang began to tell Qiao Yichen about the strange blind date he had experienced. In order to prevent Qiao Yichen from attacking him out of the blue, he learned to be smart this time and fumbled to hold down Qiao Yichen’s hand to restrict his movements. In the darkness all he could hear was a soft laugh from Qiao Yichen, but he didn’t pull back the hand that was being held.
That girl loved her ex-boyfriend, but because she loved him too much, she was afraid. Seeing him talking to the opposite sex, she became suspicious, questioning whether his mind had changed. Excessive suspicion eventually caused tiredness for the other party, he began to be cold and indifferent. In the end, because of her own fearful suspicion, they broke up. She was heartbroken. In order to get over that relationship, she followed the arrangement to have a blind date.
Lin Dongyang summed up the story with one sentence, “It is irresponsible to label others as bad just because of a little suspicion or jealousy. It is very presumptuous behaviour. Even if you regret it later, you have already hurt each other. It is difficult to mend a broken mirror.”
Lin Dongyang was talking about his deep feelings and his view on relationships.
“Then, what will you do?” Qiao Yichen asked, but unfortunately the darkness covered everything and only a wisp of indiscernible anticipation could be detected from the seemingly light words.
Lin Dongyang considered this question rather seriously before replying, “I will give full trust to my lover. It’s just, that person hasn’t shown up yet.”
Qiao Yichen listened quietly, slightly bending his fingers to scratch against Lin Dongyang’s palm. Lin Dongyang immediately grabbed his hand tighter, as if he was ready to compete with him in hand strength.
But this time Qiao Yichen withdrew his hand, turning sideways with his back to Lin Dongyang, and said, “Sleep.”
Seeing that he had no intention of continuing to chat, Lin Dongyang hummed and picked up his mobile phone to check the time, but the screen showed an unread message.
