Later, Jian Suiying finally managed to coax Li Yu enough to avoid them from violently clashing once more in the restaurant’s parking lot.
They then readied to enter the car and leave.
Li Yu got in as Jian Suiying went around the car to get on the passenger seat. At that moment, a black convertible suddenly entered the parking lot.
Jian Suiying loved cars when he was younger and he used to observe cars and learn what models they were. He habitually checked the car out, and soon his eyes flared with anger when he saw the person in the driver’s seat. The driver was Bai Xinyu, his idiot cousin whose whereabouts were unknown after scamming Jian Suiying’s money from him.
Jian Suiying immediately slammed the door and shouted angrily, “Bai Xinyu!”
Bai Xinyu wasn’t alone, and there was a beauty sitting in the passenger seat. The beauty had already gotten off and was waiting for Bai Xinyu as she carried a small purse. This loud voice suddenly resounded throughout the empty parking lot, and both of them were surprised.
As soon as Bai Xinyu looked back, he saw Jian Suiying coming towards him. The boy got scared out of his wits, and with trembling hands, he reinserted the key, started the car, stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
The whole thing happened in just a few seconds. When Li Yu got out of the car, Bai Xinyu’s car already gone. In the parking lot, there were only the angry Jian Suiying, the confused Li Yu and a confused beauty.
Jian Suiying walked up to the woman and asked her, “When did you meet him?”
The beauty looked at him and asked, “Who are you?”
Jian Suiying gnashed his teeth, “I’m his ge!”
The woman was skeptical. She was already angry that Bai Xinyu suddenly left her alone and drove away without her. She wasn’t in the mood to reply, “I’ve known him for quite a while now.”
“Didn’t he go abroad? When did he come back?”
The beauty pursed her lips, “What are you asking for?”
Jian Suiying was furious, “Why do you care about me? Just answer!”
The beauty got frightened, stepped back and looked at him warily, “He came back last week, last Saturday.”
Jian Suiying stopped talking to her and turned back to the car.
Li Yu didn’t start the car, but waited quietly for him to calm down from his anger.
Jian Suiying scolded, “This bastard dared to come back at last. But he ran away when he sees me, he’s truly a motherf*cking coward. If I catch him again, I’ll definitely punish him severely.”
Li Yuruo looked thoughtfully at the direction where Bai Xinyu’s car disappeared, “He already sold the house. What else can you do if you even catch him?”

Jian Suiying paused from this remark.

In the past, when his cousin didn’t go to college, his father wanted him to become a soldier so he could discipline his sense of idleness. But he was afraid of suffering, so he cried and screamed, refusing to go. His parents had soft hearts, so they eventually gave up. Now, thinking about it, it was really time to send him to the army for exercise and discipline him for two years. Maybe he would man up once he comes out.
He and his father have helped Bai Xinyu’s family a lot over the years. His aunt and uncle listened to his words very well too. This wasn’t only for Bai Xinyu’s sake, but also to take the opportunity to teach his cousin a lesson and give himself a break.
Li Yu gently shook his head, “You really are the damaging type.”
It was hard to send a lazy young man who had been pampered since childhood to a disciplined and dull army. It was definitely possible for Bai Xinyu to have to wake up every day crying for half a month.
Jian Suiying sneered, “I think that if he dares to follow me, laozi will treat him better this time.”
It was originally a good romantic dinner, but then Xiao Zhu’s phone call and Bai Xinyu’s appearance made both of them very gloomy.
Jian Suiying originally planned to go to a hotel and hang, but he was no longer in the mood.
The two chatted with each other on the way back, and Li Yu drove into the underground parking lot and stopped at Jian Suiying’s designated parking space. Jian Suiying felt his pocket and realized that he hadn’t given the key back to Li Yu. He quickly took it out and handed it to the younger with a smile.
Li Yu was stunned. Looking at the small velvet box, he hesitated.
Jian Suiying recognized this expression. He suddenly came to his senses and asked, “Did you think that it’s a ring?”
Li Yu was a little embarrassed. He didn’t answer yes or no.
Jian Suiying knew that he was really misunderstood, and so he also got embarrassed.
He opened the box, showing the key to his house that was laying there. “I just wanted it to look a bit special…”
Li Yu picked up the key and weighed it in his palm. He didn’t know why, but when he got the key from Jian Suiying for the second time, he felt heavy.
“I know it’s unrealistic to have you move in with me. Anyway, if you have the key, you can treat the place like your own home. Come whenever you like.”
Li Yu clenched the key in his hand, put it in his pocket, and smiled, “Okay.”
Jian Suiying leaned over, held the back of his head and kissed him. “Oh, really, when will you come? I’ll have someone clean the swimming pool in advance and replace it with water…”
“Oh, so there’s a swimming pool above your place.”
“Yes, but I found that spending money on that stuff was a waste. I haven’t used it in a while, but…” Jian Suiying licked his lips. “Shall we try it in the water?”
Li Yu suddenly felt short of breath. He gently bit the corner of Jian Suiying’s lip, and didn’t know who he was talking to when he said, “I have to go home.”
Jian Suiying hummed, “I know, you go back. I didn’t mean today anyway.”
Li Yu said gruffly, “Why do you even provoke me”
Jian Suiying grinned, “How could I provoke you?” He denied provoking him, even while moving his hands to Li Yu’s clothes.
Li Yu got so tense that he couldn’t sit properly anymore. He tried to calm down and slowly pushed him away, “Jian-ge, I really have to go home. There’s matters to take care of at home.”
Jian Suiying was disappointed and patted him on the cheek, “Alright, go back.” He turned, about to get off.
Li Yu grabbed his shoulder and pressed him on the door, kissed his lips heavily and warmly. Strong feelings were exchanged between the clash of lips and teeth. While kissing, he whispered, “The day after tomorrow, I’ll come over the day after tomorrow.”
“Alright… Let me show you my new swimming trunks then, hehe.”
Li Yu reluctantly released him and pressed the car’s door unlock button for him.
Jian Suiying kissed him again before opening the door and getting ready to get off. But just as he was about to close the door, his hand suddenly stopped.
Li Yu turned to look at him.
Jian Suiying leaned down and looked at Li Yu with a smile in his eyes. “Xiao Li-zi, I want to really give you a ring someday. Would you want it?”
The moment Li Yu looked at his loving eyes, his heart felt a tingling sensation. His hand holding the steering wheel trembled slightly and he opened his mouth, wondering what to answer.
Jian Suiying smirked, “I’ll give you something of special value. Don’t waste it.”
Li Yu laughed, “Do you think of me as a woman?”
Jian Suiying pouted, “How could that be? If you didn’t have that thing, I wouldn’t even bother to talk to you.” He noticed that Li Yu was a little stiff, and thought if his question was pressuring the younger.
Giving a ring seemed to remind people of the idea of a proposal. He really didn’t mean to do that silly thing. He just thinks that it’s a good idea if the two of them wore a couple ring or something of the sort. There seemed to be a kind of symbolic meaning and an air of mystery of the idea of belonging to one another. In short, he wanted to try.
Jian Suiying stood up straight and didn’t want to look at Li Yu’s embarrassment anymore, which made him feel like an idiot. He said, “I’m just messing with you. I’ll go up now. See you later.”
Li Yu watched his back disappear at the elevator entrance and exhaled. His expression was particularly heavy. He then took out his phone and sent Jian Suilin a message: Bai Xinyu is back.
Although Li Yu didn’t say anything and seemed to reject the idea, Jian Suiying, the stubborn donkey, let the idea of the rings plant itself deep in his heart like a cactus. The thought would stab him whenever he was idle. In short, he got obsessed and couldn’t leave the idea, he wanted to see what would happen if he and Li Yu wore rings on their fingers.
So the next day after work, he drove to Yansha and went in to pick up a diamond ring. After checking around, he wasn’t satisfied with the designs. On the way home, he called a friend whose wife had a jewelry business and said that he planned to order two diamond rings for men.
His friend laughed at him on the phone, and then deliberately ran him out, “There are too few diamonds for men’s diamond rings. My wife won’t be willing to do it.”
Jian Suiying laughed and scolded him, “F*ck off, your wife has to have a grip on you to do it. I’m telling you, this task will be up to you. If I’m not satisfied with it, I’ll settle accounts with you.”
“Hey, you’re unreasonable. Is your satisfaction that important? It depends on whether your mistress is satisfied with it or not.”
“Why do you care about that? I have much better taste in style than him. You should satisfy me first.” Li Yu, who wears sportswear or jeans all day long, can’t dress up well at all. Jian Suiying thinks a diamond ring can’t look good with all those clothes.
“Oh, his taste isn’t good, so what do you like about him then? Is he handsome? Oh, Suiying, you have to tell me who it is that makes you so interested that you’d buy him a diamond ring.”
“After a long time of trouble, you want to gossip with me, you fucker. I really can’t tell you who my lover is. Besides, I just wanted to buy two rings to play with. I’m not going to propose to anyone. Your mind can go anywhere you want it to go.”
“Drop it, man. If you have a lover or send the ring back, I won’t be curious. Just tell me now and satisfy me.”
“No, I can’t.”
“You’re such a jerk, Jian Suiying.”
Jian Suiying said half jokingly and half seriously, “I really can’t say who it is, and you can’t ask about it, let alone tell others about it.”
As soon as his friend heard his serious tone, he stopped asking and promised to find the best jewelry designer for him.
He had already thought about it. He took so much effort for it that if Li Yu refuses to take it, he would make him eat the ring.
TL Note:
The rings!! Gosh, those rings. I can’t stress what those rings do to me 🥲
This also starts Bai Xinyu’s story, Little White Poplar~ if you’re interested in knowing what happens to him in the army, go check that novel out~ (as far as I’m aware there is a translation and it’s complete).
Even if NQAZYGSB was written first and the two novels are connected, you don’t need to read in order for you to understand the plot of either, so don’t worry! This story mostly provided context/background for what was gonna be written about Bai Xinyu in his novel.
The urge to strangle LiYu gets stronger everyday!! I’m already so sad for Sui Ying
i can’t stress enough how much i hate li yu ugh
I’d definitely check that idiot Bai Xinyu’s story 😂
I’m boiling with anger whenever I read Li Yu and Suilin, damn
He doesn’t deserve that ring. I do
