How Did You Guys Become Boyfriends While GamingCh11 - Gold Plating is Inferior to Stainless Steel

Ren Jian stepped on the gas, speeding the whole way. When they arrived, the car went drifting as he braked in front of the hospital. 

Yu Qinghuan, who was disoriented from being flinged around in the car, muttered, “Am I still alive? It felt like we flew the whole way. Is my head still on my body?” 8peYQC

Ren Jian informed the confused man, “We are here.”

Yu Qinghuan snapped back to his senses, pulled open the door and hurried to the hospital. After a few steps, he did a u-turned and put his face against the car window, shouting to Ren Jian, “Thank you so much!!!”  x0V94T

After shouting his thanks, he continued his mad dash into the hospital. 

When Yu Qinghuan arrived in the hospital ward, he saw two nurses soothing Papa Yu. 

Papa Yu looked agitated. He waved his hands with an anxious expression. “Where is my son?! Where is he?”

“Dad, I am here.” Yu Qinghuan had no time to catch his breath. He hurried forward, pulled Papa Yu’s arm and pressed his old man down onto the chair.

Papa Yu calmed down when he saw Yu Qinghuan had come. He behaved himself and stayed seated, no longer yelling and screaming. Yu Qinghuan thanked the two nurses and let them rest, saying that he could look after his dad himself. 

The nurses repeatedly reminded him to call them if anything happened, before walking out of the room. 

Seeing that the outsiders were gone, Papa Yu embraced Yu Qinghuan by the shoulder and exclaimed mysteriously, “My son!”

“Yes, that is right.” Yu Qinghuan did not argue and went along with Papa Yu’s story.  Yd7Hlp

“Son, let me tell you, we got back our family fortune. That goddamned swindler is finally caught!” Papa Yu was very excited. “The police contacted me!” 

“What was that?” Yu Qinghuan frowned. Papa Yu could not leave the hospital without his signature, and without a cell phone, how could the police get in touch with his father?”

“Come, come.” Papa Yu pulled Yu Qinghuan to the bedside, carefully lifted the pillow, and babbled, like all the credit belonged to him, “Look, the money is back.”

Yu Qinghuan looked under the pillow to see a pile of torn white paper on the bed sheet. Not sure what was dabbled on the scattered paper. Beside them, was a medal lying quietly on the bed.  Ag46uN

The medal was not kept properly, some of its paint had come off, revealing the reddish-brown copper inside. It looked old and ugly. This was brought back from winning his first esports competition, and Papa Yu had been hiding it under his pillow like a treasure. 

What gold plating? Might as well replace it with stainless steel. 

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Yu Qinghuan roasted the medal each time he saw it. 

“My son, look. There is so much money.” Papa Yu smiled with his eyes as he held the pile of scattered white paper in his arms. “Our family has money again.” oSygEp

“Yes, indeed.” Yu Qinghuan chuckled. 

Papa Yu gave a powerful pat on Yu Qinghuan’s shoulder. “Son! Let your old man treat you to a feast tomorrow. You can choose crab mustard seafood noodles, Buddha jumps over the wall with abalones and what not. Bring your appetites and eat to your heart’s content!” tnbo5z

“Okay, sounds good.” Yu Qinghuan bent down and picked up the pieces of paper that had fallen to the ground, put it back under his father’s pillow, and then said to Papa Yu, “Dad, you should get some rest. You need the energy to take me to eat delicious food tomorrow.”

“Oh yes, my son is right.” Papa Yu nodded obediently and lay on his side on the bed. Yu Qinghuan covered his father with the blanket, but suddenly, his arm was tugged again. 

Papa Yu said, “Son, did you not tell dad that you like playing in electronic sports?”

Yu Qinghuan was caught off guard.  0zDvdF

He indeed always mentioned esports to his father during his first year of college. 

Papa Yu continued, “Now that our family is rich again, you can do whatever you want. Dad will always support you!” 

“…Okay.” Yu Qinghuan nodded. 

“My son, why are your eyes red?” 7ZeyhQ

“Nothing dad, just sand got into my eyes.”

“Where did the sand come from? This room is very clean.”

“It came in from the window.”

“But son, the window is closed.” tKeA4N

“…Dad, hurry up and get some sleep.”

“Okay, let’s go eat crab mustard noodles tomorrow.”

As soon as Yu Qinghuan got his father to sleep, his phone rang.  2QDf7l

He pulled out his phone to check the caller ID, and almost wanted to shut himself off on the spot. 

It was his boss, and usually nothing good when the call was made this late. 

Not wanting to disturb others when answering the phone, he quickly went outside of the hospital and returned his boss’s phone call. 

Sure enough, as soon as Yu Qinghuan answered the phone, his boss yelled at him bloody fPzG92

Close enough.

My own translation of the dish. Literally, crab yellow seafood noodles. Generally, it is just crab mustard noodles, seafood is just added to make the dish fancier. Looking at the recipe, it is noodles mixed with sauce, crab meat and crab mustard.

Translator's Note

A pot of nutritious Chinese delicacies simmered long and slow until it fall apart. So a very nourishing herbal soup. The name is from how delicious it is that even monks who are absent from eating meat will climb the wall and eat it (reminds me of Food War anime).

Translator's Note

Literally, to pour dog’s blood on sb’s head. Figurtally, torrent of abuse, being cursed at.

  1. Nooooo, my poor babyy 😭😭😭. I want him to fulfill his dreams but I’m not fond of the ML rn. 😤😤 Well, as long as my baby is happy

    • Wats there to dislike? We dont know much about the ml if we r talking about ren jian. Hes only rly shown that he was rly interested in finding qh after the competition 3vyrs prior. We dunno why or anything else.

        • It’s not black and white. It’s pretty easy to remain neutral like me and see how things develop. I dont like or dislike him. He just is.

          I never said there’s a reason to like him, even though there kind of is. Hes slowly awakening mcs fighting spirit to pursue his dreams again.

  2. I guess getting sand in eye is infectious.

    I hope ml ( I forgot his name😅) can help You qinghuan (?) to finally live his dream.

  3. This breaks my heart. I completely understand why the mom divorced the Dad, financial ruin is one of the biggest sources of marriage breakdown. But the Dad becoming like this (and yesterday was father’s day, too), but seeing that he wants his son to realize his dream, I got a bit teary-eyed. 😭
