After a month or two, Wang Ran finally got a hold of Qin Cang and after she received the other man’s consent, she immediately went to his house.
It was nine o’clock in the morning. She nervously rang the doorbell. It was Yang Yiqian who opened the door.
Her body froze unnaturally for two seconds before she gave a bow to Yang Yiqian.
“Hello, Mr. Yang.”
Yang Yiqian did not have much of a special reaction as he soon turned back to the dining room.
At this time, Qin Cang was sitting on the dining chair against the light. He was wearing a white shirt and a beige knitted coat.
Wang Ran came forward to greet him. Qin Cang put down his spoon and responded with a smile.
It was the same smile without any visible change, but Wang Ran still felt that something was different about Qin Cang. Not only was he thinner, but there was this exhaustion between his eyes. It seemed that he was surrounded by this endless melancholy, one that could not be dispersed no matter the effort.
Yang Yiqian lowered his head to look at Qi Xun, saying gently, “Finish the porridge first.”
Qin Cang frowned and looked up at Yang Yiqian. His eyes shone with the light, as if he was acting coquettishly. “I cannot finish it.”
Yang Yiqian raised his hand and touched the other’s face, sighing, “You are getting thinner and thinner. Do you want to eat something else?”
Qin Cang shook his head. “No, I am done. You should head out for work soon.”
Yang Yiqian made a sound as an acknowledgment, but he still picked up his feet and walked to the kitchen. He peeled an apple, carefully cut it into small pieces, and served it to Qin Cang on a plate.
“Remember to eat the apple. I will be back at noon.”

She obviously did not believe him. She kept apologising to him. “I am sorry, Mr. Qin. It is all my fault. If I had not taken you to the music festival, none of this would have happened.”
Qin Cang put the plate on the tea table, not touching a single piece.
“This is not your fault. I am very thankful for you actually. You were willing to take me out even after knowing about my dirty past.”
Wang Ran urged, “Mr. Qin, do not say that. It is my fault for not protecting you.”
Wang Ran’s words caused Qin Cang to chuckle, but she looked very serious. He immediately lowered his eyes, hid his smile and said in a quiet tone.
“There is no need for you to blame yourself. It was that boy who exposed it and had nothing to do with you. I am always out and about. Even if it did not happen then, there will be another time.”
After hearing this, Wang Ran’s anger suddenly burst out from her eyes as her pitch increased. “Was it the other man, the one Mr. Yang had an affair with? He is going too far! What did he think he was doing! What is his name? Can’t you arrest him for slander? If the boy has no morals, can’t you do it using the laws?”
Question after question, this frustrated Qin Cang as he did not immediately answer.
He seemed to be exhausted as his whole body was slouched into the couch.
Today’s weather was not very good. There was a faint sign of rain outside, making less light coming into the living room.
Wang Ran was very angry and looked as if she wanted to say more. Qin Cang suddenly opened his mouth, using such a quiet voice as if it was nonexistent, “Can you listen to me? I…for my condition.”
Wang Ran was caught off guard before nodding. “All right.”
Qin Cang forced out a faint smile, then his attentioned was shifted to the apple that was starting to brown.
“I will not reveal the boy’s name. Yang Yiqian likes him and is also very protective of him. I always strive to be a compassionate and considerate person. I cannot make things hard for Yang Yiqian.”
Wang Ran opened her lips. The turbid air in her mouth circled around, before the air could become words, she swallowed it back in, continued to listen to Qin Cang.
“When things died down, the boy came to my house when Yang Yiqian was away. He bypassed the door’s number lock with ease. I was startled by him being in the house, he rushed to me and I could smell the perfume on his body.
“I asked him how he knew the password to the house. He said it in a less concerned manner. How it was stupid to use something like my birthday for the password. He could figure it out even without a head.
“I was very much speechless, seeing him entering the house high and mighty. I asked what he wanted. He did not even bother to look at me. Just sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, saying ‘To talk to you.’
“I stood ill at ease while he was leisurely stretching on the couch. Out of us, he looked more like the master of the house than I was.
“I forced myself to cheer up and try to remain calm. I poured him a glass of water and said, ‘Leave after you finish the water. There is nothing for us to talk about.’
“He sneered at me, ‘Do you think I want to see you? An old man with a half-dead face all day. I do not know how Yiqian-ge could stand you.’
“I paused for two seconds and looked at his face, that bright and delicate face. Suddenly, I could not find the words to fight back. I did not have the strength to argue.
“He took a long drink and then continued, ‘I came here today to tell you one thing, I will never give up on Yiqian-ge even if you refuse to let him go. How long do you think you can live with AIDS? Five? Ten? Maybe twenty years? Do you actually plan to live with him until the day your hair turned white? Really? Hahaha, what a funny joke.’
“‘You don’t think you’re dirty even after getting hospitalized after getting fucked by someone. I really thought you would lose the will to live. What I did not expect is for you to continue to live shamelessly.’
“He turned his mocking eyes towards me, as if they had the ability to fire sharp arrows and stabbed me through my heart.
“‘In my opinion, you do not love Yiqian-ge at all. Your love is so selfish. You obviously have AIDS yet you clingy to him all day, asking him to kiss and hold you. Do you even have sex? Are you not afraid of passing your disease to him?’
“‘What did Yang Yiqin tell you?’ When I finally spoke up, I found how trembling my voice was.
“He looked at me with his raised chin. ‘Of course.’
“‘How desirable do you think you are? Has it not crossed your mind that Yiqian-ge is afraid of you? Don’t make me laugh, who does not fear death? If you really love him, you should let him go and let him start a new life. Instead, you trapped him by your side. He has to constantly worry about the company, bear the pressure of his parents, and serve you every day.’
“I did not know what kind of expression I was showing at that time, because I finally stopped caring. I just felt a sour and astringent feeling in my throat, so strong that I could not find my voice to speak.
“There was a gust of wind from the window. His long, light brown hair swung with it. In a trace, I could see several long hairs fell on me, carried by the wind, and shook madly as if in an attempt to take root.
“I bit the inside of my mouth to calm down and said, ‘Yang Yiqian has loved me for more than a decade. He loves me and is willing to do everything for me. You have no way to control him. If you do have that ability, I will like to see you try. Try and take him from me.’
“My action here was actually quite childish. I argue about love with a child, fighting to win a man’s love.
“He put down his legs, straightened up, looked at me contemptuously and said sarcastically, ‘Just you watch. With your thin and dying look that would only increase from your illness. You will withered more and more, while Yang Yiqian, who is still in his prime of life, will remain in high spirit. How many beauties, both men and women, will be chasing after him.’
“His eyes stared at me playfully. ‘I was able to move his heart, so he is not immune to others’ temptation. One day, there will be a more beautiful and younger person that he could not resist against. Don’t you know, men are animals that only think with their lower body.’
“The perfume on his body spread like acid, blocking all my path to escape and corroding me.
“At this moment, the narrow passage in my heart was once again ruthlessly ripped open by him.
“The most intense pain that someone could experience was probably this. I actually knew how dirty and bad I am. I do see myself in the mirror daily. I felt sick just seeing myself. But I cannot free myself from this. I do not have the strength to struggle out. I am trapped very deeply and only want Yang Yiqian to save me, to kiss me, to hold me, and to love me…
“I was drowning in my desires.
“Laster, when he left and Yang Yiqian came back. He smelled of alcohol and was very drunk. He staggered to hold me and asked if I took my medicine. I told him yes before he fell on the sofa and fell asleep.
“The boy is right. Yang Yiqian is too tired.”
I just wish the worst to happen to that boy… some justice must be served 😐
hope he got raped by aids patient too 😑😑
Man, I know the rape wasn’t YYQ’s fault but I really, really dislike him. He says he loves QC but will still be intimate with the person who treats him like an insect? What does QC believe he has to be divinely punished for, anyway?
Aiyo 😅😭 their situation is like those QT or transmigration stories where they defeat the green tea b and scum gong and find an even better ml. Sadly, it seems like we’re going on a realistic and hopeless og route (:3｣∠) Hopefully mc gets a better next life.
Gosh this is so depressing. I hope that boy gets his karma soon
