Wen ZhiChu looked at the water on the table, stunned. His eyes looked incredulously at the retail price on the bottle.
What kind of water actually needs 7 yuan?!
[System: Where did this water come from?]
“I don’t know.”
Wen ZhiChu looked left and right. According to his class relations, it’s doubtful anyone would buy him water.
Hesitating briefly, he said out loud: “Um… is this someone’s water?”
Wen ZhiChu asked, sounding like he had a mouthful of Sahara desert in his mouth. The students were all busy packing their own stuff. No one replied.
[System: Perhaps someone else gave it to you?]
Wen ZhiChu looked at the water bottle: “Not likely.”
[System: What do you mean not likely? It’s already placed on your table, though the price of this water already makes it premium water.]
Wen ZhiChu: “The only premium water I acknowledge is Ganten.”
Skycat Genie: ?
“Because I can afford it.”
“……”
[System: I forgot, you don’t drink water that’s over 3 yuan.]
Wen ZhiChu nodded and looked at the bottle of water in slight distress: “What should I do with the water?”
[System: Keep it. A water this price is enough for you to keep as family heirloom.]
“……”
Wen ZhiChu had no choice but to first stuff it into the netted side pocket of his bookbag. Then he followed the big Class 11 group out of the school campus.
The destination was a hotpot buffet not far from downtown.
The Class 11’s homeroom teacher: “Students, grab whatever you want to eat.”
“Okay!!!”
After Wen ZhiChu walked in, for a second, he didn’t know where to sit. He was still looking around for a spot when 2nd-to-last dragged him over to a seat. Then while the homeroom teacher wasn’t looking, 2nd-to-last grabbed something and brought it over.
Wen ZhiChu saw it: “Isn’t that……”
“Shh!” 2nd-to-last hastily covered his mouth: “Wen-son, quiet, understand?”
Wen ZhiChu nodded. Finally the other released his grip.
Wen ZhiChu suppressed his voice and asked: “Isn’t…isn’t this liquor?”
2nd-to-last pointed at the sneaky students to the side. There were boys and girls. “Everyone’s drinking. Just don’t let the homeroom teacher know. Not to mention, we’re all adults. We can drink.”
Adulthood meant making choices independently. Wen ZhiChu didn’t say anymore.
2nd-to-last: “What do you think? Do you want some?”
Wen ZhiChu shook his head.
“Don’t like to drink?”
“Ne..never drank before.”
“Have some.”
Wen ZhiChu declined tactfully: “No…no need.”
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.
“Don’t be afraid. Young adults can drink under guardian supervision.” Saying this, he patted himself: “Daddy is here.”
[System: Today is Tuesday. He’s superseding his custody right, but don’t worry. Daddy is also here.]
Qfc ItlJte: ……
2cv-ab-ijra rcfjxlis qbegfv tlw j meq: “P’ii pera qbeg la lc sbeg meq olgra. Tbe mjc vfmlvf lo sbe kjca ab vglcx la bg cba.”
Qfc ItlJte cbvvfv.
Ktfc 2cv-ab-ijra rffwfv ab gfmjii rbwfatlcu: “Pc j ktlif, lo atf tbwfgbbw afjmtfg jrxr sbe ktja’r lc sbeg meq, vb sbe xcbk ktja ab rjs?”
“A yellow…… beverage?”
“That’s not bad. More reasonable than what I said last time.”
Wen ZhiChu, confused: “What did you say last time?”
2nd-to-last: “I wanted to make it sound profound so he wouldn’t understand. Therefore I said fermented grain.”
You might as well tell him directly.
Although the homeroom teacher taught physics, he also studied chemistry before.
2nd-to-last left to grab food. Wen ZhiChu looked at the constantly bubbling liquid inside the cup. For a second, he was curious about its flavor.
[System: If you have a taste, wouldn’t you know?]
Wen ZhiChu hesitated for a second then picked it up to take a small sip. Instantly, he made a face.
“This……”
[System: I already know without you saying anything. The taste of healthiness, right?”
Wen ZhiChu: ?
[System: The last time you drank that pot of boiled green vegetables, you also had this expression.]
Wen ZhiChu: ……
The taste was really not quite ideal. Perhaps it’s because this was his first time drinking, he was somewhat unused to it. Immediately afterwards, he put aside the cup of beer to the side and stopped touching it.
However, the base of the hotpot was ultimately too spicy. After taking only one bite, Wen ZhiChu immediately felt a sharp wave of pain to his mouth and tongue. He wanted to grab some water to drink. Unexpectedly, Sun Bin who had just finished grabbing food and was about to return to the seat saw him and maliciously snatched away the small pitcher of water next to Wen ZhiChu.
Last time, Wen ZhiChu had caused his cellphone to be confiscated; he still remembered this.
Face bright red from the spiciness, Wen ZhiChu picked up the liquor cup resting on the side and drank it down in one gulp.
It was indeed no longer spicy after that, but now it was uncomfortably bitter.
Mu Qing, who was watching this from the side, walked over: “What are you doing?”
Sun Bin poured Wen ZhiChu a cup of water histrionically: “Pouring him water, can’t you see?”
Mu Qing shot him an ill-tempered glance, turned around and grabbed candy from the snack aisle to stuff in Wen ZhiChu’s hand: “The water’s contaminated now. Here, eat this first.”
Sun Bing: ……
Wen ZhiChu finally recovered: “Tha…thanks.”
The illumination inside the club house’s private room was dim. The hazy lights shone weakly on the person sitting on the authentic leather sofa, adding a sense of mystery to him.
Qin JiaShu’s large body leaned leisurely into the authentic leather sofa where he sat. There wasn’t the slightest expression on his face. The flame on his fingertips flickered.
His ink-black eyes stared in one spot as he sat there, thinking about who knew what.
At this time, the door of the private room was pushed open by the waiter. A man in western attire walked inside and sat down. Qin JiaShu chatted casually with the person briefly.
Then that person clapped his hand and plenty of people walked into the private room. There were men and women, skin fair white, figure skinny and slender, each with their unique characteristics. If there were any similarities, it’s that they were all scantily dressed.
“After learning that you were coming today, I specifically found these people. This bro is very generous, right?”
Qin JiaShu’s mouth curved into an unruly smile; however, the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes. His long slender fingers fiddled idly with the wine cup occasionally.
That person beside him beckoned. From a distance, the graceful figures walked over one after another.
Taking a glance at Qin JiaShu, that person said with a smile: “Feel free.”
The illumination was dim, so it was only possible to see the approximate appearances of people up close. A bold one sat down next to Qin JiaShu. After seeing his countenance, that person froze imperceptibly. This robust and well-built physique could be considered of highest quality.
Seeing Qin JiaShu’s wine cup empty, the person picked up the liquor to the side: “I’ll pour for you.”
Qin JiaShu examined the other. No emotions could be discerned from his sharp eyes and brows. That person felt somewhat embarrassed from being stared at, but still kept his head high and met Qin JiaShu’s gaze directly.
Qin JiaShu’s gaze was extremely invasive. When looking at someone, it felt like being stripped to the bones, but pleasurable and numbing. Under the hazy lights, his handsome face seemed slightly more casual, making him seem like a promiscuous playboy who indulges in a salacious lifestyle. No doubt, his bedroom skills must also be impressive.
That person had a red blush on his face as he looked at Qin JiaShu with bashful eyes. He obediently poured liquor for Qin JiaShu.
“Am I handsome?” Qin JiaShu’s voice was like the plucked strings of a zither.
That person hastily said: “Handsome.”
“You’re the most handsome person I’ve ever seen.”
“Even holding up a lantern, it’s really hard to find a young man with talents and looks like you nowadays. I would have never imagined meeting someone like you.”
However, looking at the other’s bright red face, Qin JiaShu couldn’t find the slightest interest at all. Not just the person next to him, the crowd that walked in a second ago did not enter his eyes either.
He didn’t like the words the other spoke. Nor did he like the way the other looked at him.
A sense of irritation arose in his heart for no reason whatsoever. The perfume on the other’s body fumed him and gave him a headache. Qin JiaShu waved his hand dismissively: “There’s no need for you here. You can go find someone else.”
That person was stunned: “Did I do something unsatisfactorily? I can change. I came specifically tonight to keep you company.”
Hearing this, Qin JiaShu frowned. Putting down the wine cup, he got up: “No need.”
Seeing him walking out, the man in the western suit hastily said: “JiaShu, why are you leaving?”
Qin JiaShu said with a cold face: “Have something to do, so I’m leaving first.”
Saying this, he walked out of the private room without even looking back. Walking forward with a pair of long legs, he passed a trash can and threw his jacket inside it. Taking out a cigarette, he attempted to smother that overwhelmingly thick smell of perfume in his nose.
Different from the conflicting feeling of aversion before, inside the private room, he only felt utter disgust. It’s not like he has never seen someone willingly submissive and another dominant in this area, but he has never felt any interest in it. He sat there pointlessly for a while— didn’t even get to drink much.
If he knew ahead of time, he should have gone boxing.
On the other side, class 11’s dinner party ended. The homeroom teacher instructed the students returning home to stay safe and then went to pay the bill. The students headed out one after another.
Only Wen ZhiChu’s cheeks looked like they were pinched. With two bright spots of red, Wen ZhiChu felt his face and ears tingly hot.
“Skycat Genie, I’m a bit hot.”
[System: It’s probably because you drank liquor.]
Wen ZhiChu really did feel somewhat exhilarated and agreed with Skycat Genie’s explanation for the time being. He placed his bookbag on his back and slowly walked towards the exit.
Good thing he only drank a cup and only felt somewhat excited and hot. Other than that, he didn’t notice any other discomforts.
Wen ZhiChu suddenly felt a bit proud of himself: “Skycat Genie, my liquor tolerance is not bad, right? I’ve seen people not even able to walk after drinking, and they throw up.”
[System: It’s not an appropriate comparison.]
“Why?”
[System: You drank a cup. Others binge.]
Wen ZhiChu: ……
That does seem impossible to compare.
Wen ZhiChu headed home with the bookbag on his back. Hearing the music playing on the side of the streets, his heart also thumped along with the beat. Wen ZhiChu raised his hand and patted himself on the chest to soothe it. That cup of liquor was still quite insane.
Looking at Wen ZhiChu, Skycat Genie said.
[System: What are you smiling about?]
Wen ZhiChu, confused: “I’m smiling?”
[System: Your face is cracked so wide, are those scars from a knife?]
“……”
Wen ZhiChu raised his hand and patted himself on the face. It wasn’t that he wanted to smile. Rather the effects of the liquor made the corner of his lips curve constantly. He was also in a pretty happy mood.
Walking around the street corner, Wen ZhiChu immediately saw a familiar figure. With a tall and lanky figure, that person was currently leaning against something and smoking.
Seeing him, Wen ZhiChu’s eyes instantly lit up. Isn’t that Qin JiaShu?!
[System: That’s right. Hurry up and run away.]
Unexpectedly, as soon as Skycat Genie finished speaking, he saw Wen ZhiChu starting to walk over there.
Skycat Genie: !
[System: Where are you going?]
[System: Wen ZhiChu!!!]
[System: Your home is over there!!!]
However, the other did not stop and headed straight towards that big and tall figure. Ever since Qin JiaShu raised his hand to Wen ZhiChu inside the corridor, Skycat Genie and Wen ZhiChu, both system and person, were dumbfounded and stunned for an entire night. After that, both felt somewhat hesitant to provoke the other directly.
[System: Wen ZhiChu: Clear the fuck up. You only drank liquor, not the heart of a bear and guts of a leopard.]
However, Wen ZhiChu had already reached Qin JiaShu. The other noticed the person beside himself. Turning his head and looking over, he immediately looked into a small, bright red face.
Wen ZhiChu: “Hi~”
Qin JiaShu: ……
Wen ZhiChu looked at Qin JiaShu’s fingertips: “Why…why are you smoking again?”
Looking at him, Qin JiaShu didn’t reply. He didn’t know why Wen ZhiChu would appear here.
Wen ZhiChu reached into his pocket and pulled out some candy. It was complimentary from the buffet: “Smoking is not..not good for the body. You take this.”
Saying this, he tried stuffing the candy inside Qin JiaShu’s hands. Qin JiaShu originally had planned to avoid him and then leave. Who knew the other would grab his hand and refuse to let go.
He saw Wen ZhiChu stare at himself with starry eyes and chatter: “Today I’m very…very happy.”
Hearing the other’s hoarse voice, Qin JiaShu froze slightly. Wen ZhiChu grabbed his hand, a sense of pride in his eyes as if he were looking at a son who got admitted into PeKing University: “You won number 1 today. You’re really… really very amazing. Super impressive.”
Saying this, he patted Qin JiaShu’s broad shoulders like they were close friends or something: “Thank you…thank you for the hard work.”
For a second, Qin JiaShu felt somewhat frozen on the spot. Clearly that feeling of aversion still existed in his heart, but very evidently, Wen ZhiChu was saying words that he loves to hear right now. He also really enjoyed the way the other was looking at him.
Qin JiaShu frowned with his brows tightly knitted. He wanted to throw off Wen ZhiChu’s hands, but also wanted the other to continue speaking to him in that kind of tone and expression.
He saw Wen ZhiChu smile foolishly at him: “3 kilometers must be very tiring, right? You’re too amazing… At that time, you were the only person I could see.”
Qin JiaShu saw him become more and more excited as he spoke, his little mouth blabbering onward without even stopping.
Then Wen ZhiChu released his hand and took something out of his bookbag.
Qin JiaShu felt the grip on his hand vanishing, and then immediately something heavy fell inside it. A splendor could be seen in Wen ZhiChu’s foolishly smiling face: “A reward for you… this is my family heirloom.”
Looking at the sports drink in his hand, which he had just gifted this afternoon because he didn’t want to owe Wen ZhiChu anything.
Qin JiaShu: ……
