Bo Qin’s expression was momentarily so complicated it couldn’t be described with words.
He stared down at the bowl of seemingly normal soup, but he could not drink it anymore no matter how hard he tried.
“Xiao Mu…”
The man put his spoon down expressionlessly. “My body is fine, I don’t need anything like this.”
“Then why won’t you touch me…” The youth tried hard to not sound reproachful.
“Weren’t you very eager before?”
“You were too tired before, but you haven’t been that busy these days. Aren’t we lovers? Why are we still sleeping in separate rooms…”
Xie Mu looked as if he had been repressing this for many days already. He had never dared to disobey Bo Qin before, so he could only hang his head down and force the words out of his mouth.
The man didn’t know how to respond.
He had to admit that in these past few days, Bo Qin had had no intention of having physical contact with his little lover.
Whenever he accidentally brushed against him, he would experience something akin to a nightmare and hear the begging of his lover from that night, asking him to save him.
But he hadn’t saved him.
He had watched unfeelingly as Xiao Mu fell into the depths of hell.
The man clasped his hands together under the table and faced his clueless lover. He revealed a soft smile.
“The doctor says you need to rest well so I can’t touch you. Xiao Mu, you can’t belittle your man like this.”
Xie Mu raised his head a little hesitantly, the rims of his eyes reddening and the depths of his eyes filled with uneasiness. He said timidly, “My body has recovered…”
Bo Qin had known the entire time that Xie Mu was feeling uneasy.
It was mostly due to his previous attitude.
He had been gentle on the surface but cool on the inside. How could someone as clever as Xiao Mu be unaware of the contrast?
He was just too afraid to mention it.
Bo Qin rose and stood watching the young man with restless, trembling eyelashes. He bent over slightly and imprinted a kiss upon his lips.
The kiss deepened with Xie Mu’s cooperation, until finally, in his lover’s arms, the youth was kissed until his entire body felt weak. His fair cheeks were tinged with red, and his originally red lips had darkened by three shades.
The man’s hands reached slowly under the hem of his shirt, and his long, thin, and calloused hands stroked the white skin hiding underneath the youth’s clothes.
He was a master of his craft; within a few minutes, Xie Mu’s entire being had been teased into liquid and he sank into his arms, gasping softly.

“Okay….”
His lover was already like this. How could Bo Qin not be hard?
He really hadn’t touched Xie Mu in a long time. Although he was conflicted, once he touched the body that was completely open to him again, the man’s heart became excited.
He was excited to point of almost losing himself on the big bed.
Bo Qin unbuttoned his shirt’s collar and pressed forward.
“En…Bo Qin…”
Xie Mu whispered quietly, both hands clasped around his neck.
–Save me, Bo Qin, save me!!
Pressed beneath the man, the youth’s hoarse cries begging to be saved sounded once again within his mind.
It had rained heavily that night, and he had been frantically knocking on the door outside.
–Bo Qin, let me inside, let me in…
In the end, after he had heard him, the originally pale face was as white as death.
“I’m, not clean…?”
–Not clean…
Bo Qin violently sprang up and seized at his hair, abandoning the youth on the bed as he hurriedly opened the door and walked out.
He loved Xiao Mu.
But he couldn’t touch him.
The cries of Xiao Mu from that night were repeatedly echoing like a curse.
At that time, Bo Qin hadn’t realized why.
He had only thought it was because his lover had been touched.
The lover, who had only loved him and only allowed him to touch him, had been touched by another man.
Even if he knew that the youth hadn’t done it on purpose, Bo Qin couldn’t resist the rejection from the depths of his heart.
He liked clean.
But Xiao Mu wasn’t clean anymore.
[Pei! Scumbag!]
Xie Mu sat on the bed, slowly dressing himself.
The system agreed, [A scumbag indeed. No wonder he was assigned to the system. ]
[Right, how could there be such a scumbag in this world. He teases others sexually and then goes off to cool himself down before doing anything. I should’ve told him what the p*nis soup was after he had drunk all of it!]
[…You called him a scumbag because of this reason?]
[Then why? He doesn’t even touch his own lover. If he’s not a scumbag then what is he?]
The system paused for a long time, before answering dryly, [There’s some logic to your reasoning. ]
[Ding! Bo Qin’s favorability: 92]
Xie Mu replied, [But this is how I like it. Abstinence is very exciting.]
Bo Qin was smoking.
Xie Mu pushed open the balcony door, his white face watching the man who had turned around due to the movement behind him.
“I’m sorry…”
The man was dumbfounded. “Xiao Mu, why are you apologizing.”
“I was in a coma for so long. My body isn’t as good as it used to be.”
The youth tried his best to suppress the tears within his eyes, his voice soft. “Let’s break up.”
Bo Qin’s expression, which had already been bad, suddenly darkened even further.
He took a step forward and grabbed Xie Mu’s wrist. It was so thin that it seemed like it could break from gently bending it. “You want to leave me?”
The man’s voice was somber and heavy, as if it was the voice of the darkest monster in the deepest depths of the world, full of gloom.
“What will you do after leaving me? Who do you want to look for? Look for…”
Scalding tears dripped onto his hand and Bo Qin’s furious gaze met the young man’s red eyes.
He only then came to himself.
The Xie Mu who was standing in front of him was still the Xie Mu who so deeply loved him, and only him.
“I’m so sorry Xiao Mu, recently…there’s been something going on at the company and I’ve been really stressed. I wasn’t trying to ignore you on purpose…”
The man quickly withdrew the sinister look on his face and gently took the youth into his arms to coax him.
“Give me a bit, I’ll be less busy very soon. I’ll stay with you then, okay?”
The young man looked at him. Although his mind was still full of doubt, he still obediently nodded his head.
Just like he did before.
Bo Qin smiled indulgently and embraced the youth, repeatedly and lightly pecking at his lips.
“Xiao Mu, I love you, I really love you…”
“Please don’t ever think about leaving me, I’ll be so miserable…”
Out of the young man’s sight, his gaze lowered.
Those memories shouldn’t exist.
Then, he should wipe out the man who had tried to make new memories, that man who had tried to touch his lover.
–Tan Tao.
The next morning, Xie Mu went on a walk as usual.
Bo Qin flipped open his diary.
On the newest page, there were still traces of tear stains.
[Last night, I had a dream. I dreamed that Bo Qin didn’t touch me because I was dirty. He loves being clean and doesn’t like sharing.
Since we’ve been together, I’ve been trying hard to not touch anyone else and haven’t let anyone else touch me. I know he likes that, and I want him to be happy.
That dream was too scary as if it had been real…
I think I’ll probably die, ba.]
The hand that was clutching the diary suddenly clenched tightly.
t/n: so…xm thinks bq is a scumbag for not touching him but abstinence is very exciting? which is it 
Oop- Child is probably cooking up another scheme to make these scums fall HARD. Can’t wait!!!
Abstinence is exciting because the pent-up desire will be more intense when it releases.
Ha HA Bo Qin is going crazy. GOOD!
Thanks for the chapter!
you have a point lmao
thats why the repressed catholic kids rly be the horniest of them all LOL
OOF-
🤣🤣🤣🤣
HAHA Xie Mu is like the complete opposite of Xie He from Strategy to Capture a Scum Gong in this chap lmao. The only thing they have in common is the scum gongs… Abstinence is exciting? How long do you think Bo Qin can remain vegetarian?
Thanks for the chap!
By the time Xie Mu is done with him, he’ll be too traumatized to ever have sex again! 😂
I feel bad for the original Xie Mu 🙁
Ah!!! I love this so much!!! Xie Mu is so amazing!!! But I feel bad for the ogXM, he must have suffered so much QAQ
Thanks for the chapter~♡
Thank you for the chapter!💕
Thanks for the chapter!
ahhh i love a good traumatised scum top, it makes the man hating sadist in me happy (o´ω`o)
thanks for the chapter ♡
Isn’t itmust be Xie Mu who was traumatised? Why it was ML1? I don’t understand. Also, considering ML1’s dominant nature, what he should have done was to overwrite Xie Mu’s trauma with his “loving” — at least, that’s what I thought.
Anyway, different authors have different ways on dealing with the scum gongs.
I guess bq is regretting everything he’s done so he’s starting to feel the consequences of his actions
Ah, yes, the best thing in the world is the suffering of the scum! Hahahahaha!!ψ(｀∇´)ψ
Really don’t understand, these two men. Weren’t they themselves was the reason for everything? And they still had guts to blame others…
And anyway, I think both would be okay (forget real Xie Mu) if MC doesn’t transmigrate.
I wanna cry because original Xie Mu’s thoughts would be like this…
