    Nie Chuan slept until four in the afternoon. Since it had stopped raining, Reece took Nie Chuan to a nearby basketball court to play carefreely.

    The current Nie Chuan was no longer one-sidedly crushed by Reece and sometimes even unexpectedly scored off him.

  3aNELy

    Such as now, when he was about cut to the right after faking a jump shot, Reece’s reaction was very fast. But just when he blocked off the direction of Nie Chuan’s cut, Nie Chuan really did stop to jump shot and scored! Moreover, it wasn’t the first goal he scored off of Reece today. 

 

    “Hey! Did you let me score!” Nie Chuan yelled and came up to Reece. He lifted his left hand, but there was no wristguard on his wrist. He pinched his right wrist, but there was nothing there either. 

 

Wy ImV

    “I didn’t. It’s been so long already, how stupid would you be if you still can’t score off of me?”

 

    Nie Chuan squatted down persistently and pulled down Reece’s socks. In the end, there was nothing in the socks either. So Reece wasn’t carrying any weight at all and had instead confronted him with his regular strength! 

  udPW5q

    “Then I really did become stronger?”

 

    “You can pass Owen Wishaw and score off Raven. Do you think you’re still an amateur? Even if you doubt yourself, please don’t doubt me.” 

  JvhRir

    Nie Chuan smiled. 

 

    The sky gradually dimmed. Reece waved his hand and said, “Let’s go, it’s getting dark. We’ll play again tomorrow.”

  Hjk2tB

    “Okay!” In other words, he could still be with Reece tomorrow!

    The two walked side by side on the way back, Nie Chuan was already thinking about what to eat that night.

  i2XjwK

    Just when they were about to walk back to Reece’s apartment, they saw someone in the middle of putting up a poster on the bulletin board. 

 

    Nie Chuan took a look and was immediately interested. “Eh, it’s a drive-in movie theater!”

  WBvwx1

    Reece came up beside him with his hands in his pockets. “You like these?” 

 

    “I saw it in a movie and thought it sounded really interesting! What’s it like watching a movie in a car?”

  iAeLp

    “Then we can watch a drive-in movie tonight.” Reece hooked his finger at Nie Chuan. “Let’s go, we’re driving.”

 

    “Okay! Is there anything to eat at a drive-in?”

  UemYbs

    “There should be burgers, hot dogs, barbecues and whatnot.”

 

    Nie Chuan suddenly looked forward to it. In movies, the male and female leads would go to a drive-in theater and cuddle closely in the car, how romantic……

  3g9wRf

    Wait…… isn’t he going together with Reece?

    “Hey, walk a bit faster,” Reece turned back and said.

  tmQnKo

    “Oh, coming!” 

 

    Reece took Nie Chuan to an underground garage where there was a car covered by cloth that had accumulated a thick layer of dust and uncovered the car. It was very retro with faded paint and appeared to not have been driven in a long time. 

  COqHmY

    Nie Chuan didn’t know alot about cars, but he faintly felt that if this car was to get sold, it would definitely be worth a lot of money.

 

    “Can it still drive?” Nie Chuan asked doubtfully. “It won’t just fall apart as soon as you start it ba?”

  i7rtdW

    “Even car sex inside wouldn’t be a problem, how could it possibly fall apart?” The corners of Reece’s lips rose again. 

 

We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.

    Nie Chuan stiffened, feeling more and more as if he had dug himself a big pit by going to the drive-in with Reece.

    To the east of the parking lot was a huge screen.

    Then, Nie Chuan was embarrassed to find that the people who came to see the movie were really all lovers.

  UTeD0L

    When they stopped at the toll booth, the uncle who collected the fees was stunned before saying with a smile, “Ice cream and cold drinks are on the left. Barbecue, burgers, hot dogs, and tacos are in that food truck. Do you guys need condoms?”

 

    The uncle clamped a small box between his fingers and waved it in front of Reece’s window.

  uHnV76

    Nie Chuan immediately felt even more embarrassed.

 

    Would someone really do those kinds of things in the car while watching a movie?

  qyB4Po

    “I don’t need this kind, it’s too thick.” Reece smirked. 

 

    Nie Chuan bumped Reece with his elbow, lowered his voice and said, “Why are you talking to him about those things? Just say that we don’t need any!”

  YaSFRs

    The uncle took out another box and waved it. “Ultra-thin, feels real to the touch! Fifty percent off special!” 

 

    Reece propped his chin up with one hand and shook his head, “Boring.”

  PNTpBF

    “You youngsters shouldn’t play too hard!” The uncle took out another kind, “This one is a pricey one! It’s granulated too, you know.” 

 

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

    Reece still shook his head. “Do you have any chocolate-flavored ones?”

  wVF3xp

    Nie Chuan was really about to collapse. He could be regarded as having understood. Reece was playing tricks on him again! 

 

    “Eat it yourself ah!” Nie Chuan said fiercely in Chinese. 

  RSEPBA

    Reece smiled and handed cash over to the uncle to pay for the movie before driving in.

 

    “Actually, I like using nothing at all,” Reece said as he took a turn that caused Nie Chuan to lean against him due to the inertia.

  Z6hCOT

    Nie Chuan’s heart felt like it was being firmly squeezed.

 

    “What are you telling me this for? I didn’t need to know!” Nie Chuan snorted.

  AbFHrS

    “Your ears are red.”

 

    “They aren’t.”

  iDPx7T

    “They’re really red.”

    “They aren’t.” Nie Chuan was really annoyed!

  ij0CnX

    When the movie finally began playing, the entire parking lot’s lights dimmed, leaving only the screen illuminated.

 

    Reece handed the hot dog and Coke he just bought to Nie Chuan who was reading the opening title attentively. Nie Chuan originally thought it would be a romance movie, he never expected it to actually be a horror movie!

  ufAoQ9

    At the start of the film, there was a small cabin in an eerie forest accompanied by guttural sounds from someone trying to speak after having their neck snapped. 

 

    Nie Chuan had always disliked horror movies due to his ability to make rich associations.

  BFM3Id

    He could only relieve his tension by forcefully chewing on his food.

 

    Would Reece like this kind of movie? 

  eB1JWb

    Nie Chuan looked at Reece’s profile. In the dim lighting, Reece’s facial features were still as handsome as before. His elite temperament carried a hint of mystery which made Nie Chuan instantly think of the blood clan in “Interview with a Vampire.”

 

    “If you’re scared, you can cover your eyes.” Reece said.

  40Qj6Y

    He looked in the direction of the movie and took a sip of Coke as if he wasn’t fearful at all.

    “I’m not scared.”

  bCSye4

    How could he possibly give Reece the chance to mock him? Nie Chuan concentrated on watching the film. 

 

    But Nie Chuan was on edge the entire time. Especially when the woman in white with her hair covering her face appeared, Nie Chuan really wanted to close his eyes. 

  LglDQk

    At this time, the car beside them started shaking violently.

 

    Nie Chuan was stunned. He naturally knew what was happening in that car. 

  2zOByW

    But, this was a horror movie, not a romance film ah! How could they possibly be in the mood! 

 

    The squeaking sounds of the car’s tires became increasingly louder. Thanks to it, Nie Chuan’s attention was diverted and he began to subconsciously analyze the various noises coming from that side. 

  wG9ZEp

    A hoarse breath, an unconcealed cry, Nie Chuan also flushed red.

 

    Until the end of the first round when they quietened down, Nie Chuan also exhaled in relief.

  ts8aXR

    But he didn’t expect that less than ten minutes later, they would start a second round, and it was even more exaggerated than the first.

   This made Nie Chuan almost unable to sit still. 

  EAv1FR

    “I’m going to the restroom!”

 

     At that moment, Nie Chuan just wanted to get away from the exaggerated sounds they were making. 

  3m9VJp

    “Mmm,” Reece replied softly, still looking in the direction of the movie.

 

    Nie Chuan got out. The air outside the car was cooler and more refreshing. Nie Chuan exhaled then patted his cheeks.

  7eBiPc

    Staying with Reece in such a narrow space while listening to those kinds of sounds, if he had a reaction and was seen by Reece, he really wouldn’t be able to live anymore ah

 

    The restroom at the drive-in was very simple and crude. Nie Chuan had only just walked in when he heard the other side, which was only separated from him by a single iron partition, shake. 

  OwF53B

   “That’s enough really……” Nie Chuan quickly resolved it and walked out. 

 

    He had only taken a couple steps out of the restroom when a brown-haired girl wearing leather shorts with her waist exposed and heavy makeup came towards him. 

  pb UDF

    “Hey, wanna have some fun with me and my friends in our car?” The girl raised her chin at Nie Chuan. There was a suggestiveness in her eyes that Nie Chuan completely didn’t know how to react to. 

 

Please support our translators at chrysanthemumgarden (dot) com

    Nie Chuan followed her gaze and saw two other girls sitting in a shabby Jeep who both winked at Nie Chuan.

  tqCsdk

    “It’ll be fun. Let’s go together?” 

 

    She was about to take Nie Chuan’s arm when Nie Chuan took a step back and quickly waved his hand. “No! No need! My friend’s still waiting for me!”

  28c4S7

    “Friend? If it’s male, you can ask him to come along. If it’s female, it’s fine to just make her wait and worry for you.”

 

    The other seemed to find Nie Chuan’s dodgy attitude very interesting and began leaning closer and closer. 

  1RZFSy

    “Hey, I have a very beautiful tattoo on my body, don’t you want to have a look?”

 

    “I…… I don’t know how to appreciate tattoos……”

  sMNwig

    Nie Chuan, a grown 1.8m boy, was forced back into the bathroom while feeling endlessly embarrassed when the other unexpectedly moved her hands past Nie Chuan’s waist to press against the bathroom door. 

 

    “Hey, my friends and I all think your legs look really good, why don’t you let us have a better look.”

  qRIW9D

    Nie Chuan was about to collapse. He had never been hit on like this in his entire life. Previously, Zhou Bin and Lily had also complimented his legs. Nie Chuan used to think that having nice legs as a boy wouldn’t be worth a damn, but now he understood profoundly that it could become something for others to tease him about.

    Nie Chuan wanted to push the other away but he was too embarrassed to touch her. 

  y8VkM0

    “Only I can look at his legs.”

 

    An icy voice sounded, repressing the air, making it so people can’t help but tense. 

  sVgJjR

    Nie Chuan looked to the side to see Reece with two cans of Coke in his hands and a cold smile on his face. 

 

    The girl pressing up against Nie Chuan was stunned, Reece’s profile had always been very attractive. 

  cLPKE6

    But when the girl heard Reece’s words, she reacted with a regretful expression. 

 

    “God, it’s not easy to come across someone who’s good-looking! How unlucky!”

  i7cL8t

    She had obviously taken Reece’s words as a boyfriend’s declaration of ownership.

 

    Nie Chuan gulped. The girl walked back towards the Jeep with a shrug, “They’re a couple! How boring!”

  NkpSvD

    Nie Chuan felt his face burn again.

    “Let’s go.” Reece raised his chin, motioning for Nie Chuan to follow. 

  rg60Pe

    “Why did you say it like that! We’ll get misunderstood!”

 

    “Isn’t this good? She gave up on you. Or did you want to mess around with them in that Jeep?” Reece raised his brow. 

  0Fjhd2

    “How could I possibly do that!” Nie Chuan felt awkward and laughed foolishly, “Haha…… I never thought I’d have the chance to get hit on by a pretty girl in this life.”

 

    “Pretty girl? She’s pretty? Where?” Reece suddenly stopped walking and turned to ask.

  Ho0rDS

    At this time, a female ghost happened to suddenly appear on the screen, frightening Nie Chuan into gasping. 

 

    “Or did you just want to see her tattoos? I can take you to get one tomorrow.”

  0SNYmd

    There was a low pressure around Reece.

 

    Nie Chuan quickly shook his head, “No! No need! I don’t like tattoos! Really!”

  nBzf7a

    Reece asked as if he didn’t hear and took a step towards Nie Chuan, “Where would you like it to go? Waist? Back? Or those legs that they thought looked really good?”

 

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

    Nie Chuan felt an urge to just die, it seemed that Reece had been watching him get hit on since the very beginning!


MadMadamMims: Wow condoms for sale, talk about service! Also Reece is hella horny 😘 Dm0FxM

    Thank you so much for the hardwork!! <3 (_/)

    ( •_•)

    / >❤️

  3. Reece is so shameless… poor Nie Chuan might end up being a little traumatized by his trip to New York. And Reece probably thought that a horror movie would be an excuse to cuddle. Instead, he got to watch other people hit on Nie Chuan. Thanks for the update!
