Wen ZhiChu exited the alleyway with a tremble. Keeping his head down, he ran off, his thoughts completely blank inside his head, incapable of thinking properly.
The nighttime autumn breeze carried a penetrating chill. However, Wen ZhiChu couldn’t feel it at all. On the contrary, his body felt feverish from head to toe, so hot it was even itchy, like he was about to set on fire.
His lips still carried a feeling of moisture, which was left behind by the two of them inside the alleyway. At this time, after experiencing a gust of breeze, the moist coolness felt even more apparent.
Wen ZhiChu’s head buzzed for a moment. His soft red lips trembled. Like a cat that had its tail stepped on, he hastily raised a hand and rubbed his lips with his sleeve.
Recalling what had happened inside the alleyway just now, Wen ZhiChu’s face felt terrifyingly hot.
Qin JiaShu likes him, likes him so much that he had kissed him.
Because Wen ZhiChu was running swiftly, even his breathing became rushed and out of breath.
But didn’t Qin JiaShu despite him all this time?!
Unless……
Unless this was the so-called ‘saying you don’t want it, but the body is very honest’!
At this moment, Wen ZhiChu’s heart seemed to containcountless groundhogs riding on top of alpacas, galloping through. While passing by, they didn’t even forget to spit at him, tui~
He couldn’t figure out his inner thoughts right now. His heart was beating wildly, who knew if it was out of fear or something else.
Distraught and distracted, his pace increased faster and faster. However, Wen ZhiChu had his head down, basically incapable of seeing the telephone pole in front of him.
Five seconds later, without any surprise, Wen ZhiChu had an intimate encounter with it.
A ‘dong’ could be heard. Covering his forehead with a hand, Wen ZhiChu fell down, his butt landing securely on the ground.
This bump was perhaps a bit hard. Covering his forehead, Wen ZhiChu whimpered and groaned on the ground nonstop.
[System: Young man, are you alright?! Young man, are you alright?!]
Hearing the pig screech inside his head, —those who didn’t know might even have thought he had died and gone to heaven—, Wen ZhiChu felt somewhat dizzy and did his best to say: “I’m okay.”
[System: How are you feeling right now then?]
Wen ZhiChu didn’t know if it was his misconception: “I feel like I can stand shoulder to shoulder with stars.”
Skycat Genie instantly quieted down.
[System: That seems pretty serious.]
Wen ZhiChu: ……
The street was busy. Even at night, close to 11pm, there were still plenty of people on the streets.
A woman saw Wen ZhiChu falling to the ground and came over to help him up: “Student, are you okay?”
Looking at the fair white hand in front of him, Wen ZhiChu felt too shy to take it. Hastily patting his pants, he stood up: “It’s…it’s nothing. Thank you.”
The woman looked at the bump that appeared on Wen ZhiChu’s forehead: “How are you feeling?”
Wen ZhiChu: “I’m…I’m good.”
[System: You don’t look very good.]
Wen ZhiChu: ……
After giving thanks to that woman and leaving, Wen ZhiChu finally continued to grimace and hiss out of pain. Raising his head and touching his forehead, Wen ZhiChu cried tearlessly for a moment.
[System: Don’t raise random flag in the future about others being more misfortunate than you.]
Wen ZhiChu looked confused.
[System: Isn’t this your retribution?]

[System: It’s better you don’t ask.]
Wen ZhiChu, stunned: “You can just say it.”
[System: I’m afraid you’ll feel hurt.]
Wen ZhiChu touched the bump on his forehead: “I won’t.”
[System: Not very smart looking.]
Wen ZhiChu: ……
Why did he have to ask.
[System: How come you’re not talking anymore?]
Wen ZhiChu: “I’m feeling hurt.”
Skycat Genie: ……
Then Wen ZhiChu covered his forehead with a hand and walked forward.
Seeing this, Skycat Genie asked.
[System: What are you doing?]
Wen ZhiChu covered the bump on his forehead. He didn’t know the extent of his injury and was afraid to scare others: “I’m afraid others might get scared seeing it, so I’m pretending to have a headache and returning home with it covered.”
[System: Do you even need to pretend?]
Wen ZhiChu’s movements halted as his little face fell: “Needed to before, but no need now.”
[System: Why?]
“I didn’t feel the pain before.”
[System: So?]
“As soon as you mentioned it, I started hurting.”
Skycat Genie: ……
So it’s at fault here.
Wen ZhiChu originally planned to head home directly, but after walking a while, Skycat Genie suddenly said: [You’re not going to go buy medicine?]
Wen ZhiChu couldn’t remember if there was medicine left in the med-kit at home and asked back: “Are there any at home?”
[System: Yes.]
Wen ZhiChu: “Then there’s no need to buy it.”
[System: The little animals’ croak medicine.]
“……”
In the end, Wen ZhiChu spent 50 yuan inside the drug store and then finally returned home. After entering the door, he omitted his usual greeting ceremony with the little animals and headed straight to the bathroom to look in the mirror. Wen ZhiChu carefully brushed aside the hair in front of his forehead. Sure enough there was a huge swelling on his forehead, which was already somewhat bruised in color.
Wen ZhiChu rubbed on some medicine, washed up, and then collapsed onto the bed, exhausted.
At this time, Skycat Genie said.
[System: What were you and the protagonist doing in the alleyway just now?]
This question was like igniting an explosive. Wen ZhiChu flipped up like a little piglet, hopping into a sitting position on the bed: “You…you don’t know?”
[System: Upon detecting certain things, we Systems shutdown automatically to protect the host’s privacy and avoid prying.]
Hearing this, Wen ZhiChu was taken aback: “Then how did you come out later?”
Skycat Genie looked at Wen ZhiChu’s bump.
[System: Slammed out by the crash.]
“……”
Wen ZhiChu flinched, somewhat not daring to recall it. He stammered: “Not…nothing really.”
Skycat Genie practically saw through him in one glance.
[System: You guys *beepbeep*?]
Wen ZhiChu, shocked: “Didn’t you shutdown automatically?”
[System: *Beepbeep* is what causes the automatic shutdown.]
Wen ZhiChu: ……
Seeing Wen ZhiChu not wanting to talk much, Skycat Genie didn’t ask again. It’s unknown if it’s because his forehead hurt too much tonight, Wen ZhiChu suffered insomnia all night.
Getting up the next day, he looked just like a frosted eggplant. There was club activity today as well. He really didn’t know how to face Qin JiaShu.
The other had kissed him, this was early dating behavior.
However, as a member of the Communist Youth League, how could he date early?
Wen ZhiChu headed to class without even buying steamed buns. As soon as he entered the classroom, someone held him back by the shoulder: “Damn, Wen-son, what happened to your head?!”
2nd-to-last moved aside the hair in front of Wen ZhiChu’s forehead. After a night, his forehead had already turned purple and green.
“Did you get bullied? Don’t worry, you can tell daddy. Who hit you? Which misbehaving brat?!”
“……”
The misbehaving brat is actually me, myself, and I.
Wen ZhiChu raised his hand with a tremble. 2nd-to-last looked over following its direction and then saw Wen ZhiChu’s face.
2nd-to-last: ……
Wen ZhiChu returned to his seat and sat down, distraught with anxiety inside. After an entire class of self-study, he didn’t get anything done. When class was over, he went to the supermarket to buy water and learned from someone else’s mouth that Qin JiaShu didn’t come to school today.
For a second, the corners of his mouth fell uncontrollably. Was he a bit too much yesterday? If he said it a bit more tactfully, would it have been slightly better?
Wen ZhiChu hung his head and looked at the tip of his toes. He didn’t understand why such an outstanding person like Qin JiaShu would like someone like him.
After all, he didn’t have anything good for people to like. Even he didn’t like himself very much.
10 am in the morning, there was a knock on the Qin family’s gates.
The servant thought it was the Madam who had forgotten to bring something after she left so they hastily went to the entrance. Opening the door, Ji FengChang’s figure appeared outside.
The servant was surprised: “Young master Ji.”
Ji FengChang walked inside leisurely like it was his own house; he changed his shoes: “I came to find Qin JiaShu. He’s here, right?”
The servant nodded swiftly: “Here, here.”
At this time, the sound of footsteps came from upstairs, which were accompanied by a pig’s screech: “Ahhhhhhh, Gege is not letting XiaoHe enter, XiaoHe…XiaoHe wants to see Gege!!”
The nanny hastily picked Qin JiaHe up: “Gege doesn’t feel very well today. XiaoHe can play with Gege tomorrow, alright?”
Looking at the crying and screaming little guy, Ji FengChang shook his head.
Such conflict. Qin JiaShu detested this little brother so much, yet unexpectedly, this little guy clung to Qin JiaShu the most.
Seeing Qin JiaHe, who was crying and throwing a tantrum inside the nanny’s arms, Ji FengChang originally planned to go upstairs directly. However, when he walked in front of the two people, Qin JiaHe instantly closed his little mouth, like flicking off a switch, and then started staring at Ji FengChang.
Seeing this, Ji FengChang gave a casual greeting: “Hello, little piglet.”
Qin JiaHe’s chubby little body stiffened: “XiaoHe is not a piglet.”
Ji FengChang raised a hand and poked his stomach: “If you’re not, then your big brother is?”
Hearing the other talk about his big brother, Qin JiaHe panicked: “Then…then XiaoHe is a little piglet.”
Ji FengChang held back a laugh: “Why were you crying just now?”
This question made Qin JiaHe sulk: “Because Gege doesn’t want to play with XiaoHe.”
Ji FengChang understood: “Do you want to guess what I came to do?”
Qin JiaHe blinked his large eyes and looked at him.
Ji FengChang opened his mouth, as if a demon’s whisper: “I came to play with your Gege.”
Three seconds later, a new round of pig scream exploded within the Qin family.
The nanny carrying Qin JiaHe: ……
Are you the devil?
Seeing the little piglet crying his heart out, Ji FengChang hastily stuffed candy at him and escaped.
Reaching the door on the 3rd floor, he raised his hand and knocked.
“Assh…no.” There was a little kid in the Qin family, he couldn’t say that.
Ji FengChang’s words took an abrupt turn: “Dear ol’ Qin. It’s me. Open the door.”
Originally, he thought the other would give him some face. Unexpectedly, Ji FengChang stood in front of the door for two minutes without seeing the door open.
Ji FengChang: ……
He cleared his throat: “Qin JiaShu, open the door.”
One second, two second…….
“God dammit, Qin JiaShu, you asshole. I came to see you, but you’d actually keep me locked outside. Are you still human(e)? Did you forget your childhood promise?!”
“You promised to be best friends for……”
Before Ji FengChang finished his display, he heard a ‘kada’ from the door lock. The door opened after the sound.
A smell of nicotine assaulted his nostrils. The inside of the room was dark. The light-blocking curtains blocked the sunlight outside securely. The blankets on the big bed were a complete mess. Clearly, Qin JiaShu had just gotten up.
With a dark expression on his face, Qin JiaShu stood in front of the door, upper body naked. His shoulders were expansive. When he raised his arms, the shark muscles on the sides of his body were clearly visible. His entire person was strong, robust, and upright like a small mountain, exuding a low pressure wantonly and freely everywhere. On his body, he wore only a gray pair of pants, which hung loosely around his waist.
Ji FengChang took a glance and instantly felt his heart give a thud.
Fuck, this asshole had a stinky, terrible expression on his face.
Came @ the wrong time? Should I say RIP bestie Ji FengChan?🤭
Thee cliffhangers might actual kill me
Poor kid getting teased by Ji FengChan 😅 altough he really needs to learn some manners and stop screeching like a banshee at the first signt of things not going his way.
On another note, I hope that Qin Jiashu will start actively pursuing Wen ZhiChu, and won’t think that he stopped being his number 1, even if Wen ZhiChu isn’t romantically interested now…
I agree. Also, the kid being such a brat is a clear indication of his parents always spoiling him.
Totally agree, on both counts.
It kinda feels like rhe Qin parents are simply that lousy…spoiling the piglet, yet tossing him at Jiashu when they are too busy.
And yeah, I was very surprised at the level of Jiashu’s self-reflexion when Chuchu “rejected” him. I’m sure he won’t give up just like that ☺
Lol, they got matching forehead bumps.
Karma it’s karma☠️
Qin Jiahe please give your brother a moment PLEASE 😭
Fengchang 🤝🏻 the word ‘human(e)’
Young master Ji is truly worthy to be Qin Jiashu’s bestie. Unfortunately, he is about to be troubled for his bad advice… Thanks for the cliffy update… lmao 🤣🤣🤣
Oooh he’s about to beat up someone. What a relief the scapegoat ran into him voluntarily!!
Thank you for the update ❤️💯
Lol we have ji fengchang to thank for giving such ‘robust’ dating ideas 😂 jiashu jiayou!!
