Yu Yangâs heart was pounding, he was greedy for Qi Zuiâs embrace. He could not help but lower his voice and say, âI⊠I donât like getting angry.â
Â
Qi Zui smiled.
Â
Yu Yang closed his eyes in pain, what was he sayingâŠ
Â
âYou might not get angry if I kiss you forcefully, but itâll be different for others, right?â Qi Zui looked at Xin Baâs back, âBut I really did feel a little jealous just nowâŠâ
Â
Yu Yang felt a sweetness in his heart and he said in a low voice, âHeâs not⊠gay, and he doesnât like me either.â
Â
âBut heâs in my way,â Qi Zui raised an eyebrow, âWhen you were using the washroom just now, did you whistle to yourself?â
Â
Yu Yangâs face turned red, and he lowered his voice, âI didnâtâŠâ
Â
âThen thatâs alright,â Qi Zui said coolly, âThankfully heâs straight, otherwise⊠I might really do something impulsive.â
Â
Yu Yang coughed, his hands moving around in the pocket of his pants, squeezing on his lighter as if he did not know what to do with them. After a moment, he could not hold himself back and asked in a small voice, âWhat⊠sort of impulsive thing?â
Â
âKiss you forcefully in front of him, kissing you with tongue, making you breathless, taking off your shirt, having your back to him, to let him see my tattoo on your back,â Qi Zuiâs face was not red and he was not out of breath, âI might even force you to say some words to him that youâll find hard to say⊠Captain Yu, do you know how much of a beast I am? Do you want to hear more?â
Â
Yu Yang knew very well that Qi Zui would not do such a thing, but he thought about it for a moment⊠and his legs felt a little weak.
Â
Qi Zui looked at Yu Yangâs expression carefully and suddenly smiled, âCaptain Yu, why do I feel that youâre looking forward to it?â
Â
âNo,â Yu Yang tried his best to act naturally. He stretched out his neck and said, âAnyway⊠anyway, I just donât like getting angry.â
Â
Yu Yangâs actions caused Qi Zuiâs heart to itch. He looked around, then pulled Yu Yang back into the washroom.
Â
Bu Nana had eaten half a plate of fruits, and on the way to the gathering, he had already drunk a bottle of water. He could not hold it in anymore and went to the washroom to pee.
Â
Yu Yang heard Bu Nana humming from the next cubical and his eyes widened.
Â
Qi Zui looked at Yu Yangâs eyes and for some reason, felt like acting out. His hand was currently on Yu Yangâs waist⊠Yu Yang had already accepted Qi Zui touching his waist yesterday.\n
Â
Qi Zuiâs hand glided to the front, lightly pressing on Yu Yangâs belly, his voice extremely soft, âAre you hungry?â
Â
It was already past nine at night. Yu Yangâs originally flat stomach was a little caved in. For some reason, Qi Zui found it pitiful and cute.
Â
Yu Yang was scared that Bu Nana would hear his voice and did not dare to speak. He could only nod his head slightly.
Â
âSo youâre hungryâŠâ
Â
Qi Zui took out a piece of candy from his pocket.
Â
Qi Zui was scared that Yu Yang would find it dirty, so he did not touch it with his hands. He lowered his head and used his teeth to rip away the wrapper of the sweet, then picked up the sweet between his teeth.
Â
Qi Zuiâs eyes were shining as he looked at Yu Yang.
Â
Of course, Yu Yang knew what Qi Zui wanted to do.
Â
The sound of someone washing their hands could be heard and Bu Nana hummed as he left.
Â
Qi Zui bit on the sweet, his voice muffled, âDo you want to eat it? I wonât touch you randomly.â
Â
Yu Yang did not even need time to think⊠Qi Zui wanted to feed him a sweet in that manner. Of course, Yu Yang wanted to eat it.
Â
There was a smile in Qi Zuiâs eyes, and he looked at Yu Yang in anticipation.
Â
Yu Yang clenched his right hand, hesitating for two seconds before he quickly took the sweet from Qi Zuiâs mouth by biting it.
Â
After the touch that barely lasted for a second and could not even be considered a kiss, Yu Yang leaned against the wall, using the back of his hand to cover his mouth, his neck turning red.
Â
Qi Zui enjoyed the moment, and deliberately asked, âIs it tasty?â
Â
Yu Yang lowered his head, and nodded after a moment, âTastyâŠâ
Â
Qi Zui was feeling extremely evil and asked, âDoes it taste better than how it normally tastes?â
 \nYu Yangâs entire face was red and he nodded his head again, âYesâŠâ
Â
It definitely tasted better than how it did normally. It was the same sweet, but Yu Yang seemed to be eating it carefully. He could not bear to bite it at all and let it slowly dissolve, wishing to remember every bit of sweetness.
Â
A sweet with Qi Zuiâs taste.
Â
A long while after they returned to the gathering, Qi Zui saw that Yu Yangâs left cheek was still puffed up. He asked, âYouâre not done eating yet?â
Â
Yu Yangâs voice was muffled, âIf I finish eating it, itâll be goneâŠâ
Â
Qi Zuiâs heart melted.
Â
But no matter how much he cherished it, Yu Yang still had to eat. Qi Zui thought about Yu Yangâs empty stomach and talked to some people, ordering some food in advance.
Â
Not long after, the waiter delivered more than ten plates of crayfish.
Â
Bu Nana snorted in excitement, bashfully pushing Qi Zui, âYou sly thing! How did you know that Iâve been craving crayfish for these two days?!â
Â
âI didnât know,â Qi Zui carried over two plates, âAll I know is that Yu Yang keeps ordering crayfish-covered rice, so I thought that heâs probably craving it.â
Â
Bu Nana shamelessly pushed Qi Zui aside, âItâs fine, itâs fine, as long as thereâs some for me⊠Aiya, I really love eating this, did you order salted egg yolk flavored crayfish?â
Â
Â
âBy the side, look for it yourself.â
Â
Qi Zui took the two plates, bringing Yu Yang with him, and avoiding the people that were slightly drunk, sitting by the side so the two of them could eat together.
Â
Yu Yang reluctantly swallowed the sweet, wanting to peel crayfish for Qi Zui. However, Qi Zui smiled and rejected his offer.
Â
âIâll peel it, you can eat,â Qi Zui washed his hands, then carefully peeled the crayfish, âRight now, your hands are more valuable than mine.â
Â
Yu Yang was fed by Qi Zui and his face turned slightly red as he said, âThatâs not trueâŠâ
Â
Yu Yang remembered the results of the competition today and was ashamed, âThey arenât valuable, the competitionâŠâ\n\nâLai Hua⊠heâs very traditional, very very traditional,â Qi Zui smiled, âEvery year, when he celebrated Chinese New Year, heâll paste couplets outside his dormitory doors. Among the whole row of doors on the third floor, only his door will be bright red, very joyful, very festive.
Â
Qi Zui smiled, âHe had originally wanted to paste an especially big âSafe Entry and Exit1â, but He Xiaoxu could not stand it anymore and kept annoying Lao Lai till he removed it.â
Â
Yu Yang lowered his head and chuckled.
Â
âThere was a year when we went out to compete, I told you about this story in the car that day. Nana made a serious mistake and caused us to lose our place as a seeded team,â Qi Zui continued the story from the other day, âAt that time, we met a seeded team during our group competition. That Swedish team was scared of us but was also angry that we were in their bracket, that our presence would cause them to fail to qualify. They kept talking crap before the competition, being sarcastic and mocking us. They were saying very unpleasant things.â
Â
âWhen we met them during the competition, Bu Nana took advantage of the fact that those people did not understand Chinese, and there werenât any interpreters or cameras around us at that timeâŠâ Qi Zui laughed, âHe enthusiastically hugged the other team and pretended to be close.â
Â
Little plump Bu Nana affectionately hugged the Captain of the Swedish team, pursing his lips as he said in an extremely loud voice by the Captainâs ear, âYouâre an idiot! Did you hear me? Youâre an idiot!! Repeat after me! Youâre an idiot!!!â
Â
Yu Yang laughed till his stomach hurt.
Â
âThereâs another funny story.â
Â
âI think it was two years ago? It was something that happened when we were competing in America. It was during the Winter as well,â Qi Zui wiped his hands and picked up his coke to take a gulp, reminiscing, âIt was a three-month long competition, all across North America, seventeen venues, we played more than fifty matches⊠In the end, this team won the championship and they were so happy that they went to drink together. There was a member whose alcohol tolerance was lacking and he got drunk after drinking two cups. After he left the bar, he refused to get on the car no matter how the others tried to persuade him and insisted on walking back.â
Â
âThe others in the team were worried. It was three in the morning and snowing heavily. What if something happened? So none of them got on the car and they followed him from behind,â Qi Zui tried to hold back a smile, âAfter he walked halfway back, he suddenly stood in front of a doll at the entrance of a bar and refused to move. After that, he grabbed the dollâs collar and questioned him. He probably questioned him for around half an hour⊠insisting on asking for an explanation from the doll.â
Â
âNo matter who tried, the team could not persuade him to walk away. They did not know what sort of drunken frenzy he was in. In the end, left with no choice, the manager of the team gritted his teeth and bought the doll in front of the barâŠâ Qi Zui could not bear to recall that scene, âBut no one realized that the doll was made of solid copper⊠The person who was in a drunken craze did not say a word and kept staring at that thing, which meant that he wanted that doll no matter what. The manager did not know what to do⊠and could only go to the nearby hospital to borrow a stretcher.â
Â
Yu Yang snorted, and almost spit out the coke in his mouth.
Â
Qi Zui found it hard to imagine, âTheir team held the stretcher, carrying that thing made of pure copper⊠and walked ten kilometers in the snow⊠In the icy and snowy foreign land, the whole team went forward silently with a heavy load, it was especially heroic⊠When they entered the hotel, they startled the security team and they almost called the policeâŠâ
Â
Yu Yang was shaking with laughter.
Â
Qi Zui put down the coke and picked up another crayfish to peel, âAfter that, when that person woke up and sobered up, he had forgotten about that matter. He refused to admit that he was the one who wanted that copper thing. Not only did he refuse to pay for it, he even refused to ship the doll that his teammates carried back with much difficulty back to China.â
Â
Yu Yang laughed so hard that his face turned red, âWho, who was that?â
Â
Qi Zui lowered his gaze with a smile and placed the crayfish in his hand onto the small plate in front of Yu Yang. Then, he looked at the person who dared to say that he liked eSports more than him and said softly, âMe.â
Â
âThat doll wasnât anything special. It was simply thin and tall, and was too similar to the person in my heart.â
