Chapter 27 Accident

Chu Chenghuan had been having frequent dreams recently, and the people in his dreams looked exactly like him and Xie Ting now. He hadn't had a dream like this in a long time, and this time he dreamed of jumping off a cliff with Xie Ting in his arms. At the moment of the leap, Chu Chenghuan suddenly opened his eyes. When he woke up, his back was wet with the bedsheets, and it was already dawn.

Chu Chenghuan rubbed his brows, regaining his composure before heading for a shower. The sound of running water filled the bathroom as Chu Chenghuan remained lost in his gradually clearing dream. In his dream, Xie Ting had actually promised to be his wife in the next life?

So was it just his fantasy or his past life with Xie Ting? If it was a dream, his feelings for Xie Ting were clear, completely impure, and they would be together even until death.

But if it was in a previous life, his bond with Xie Ting was truly deep. In this life, Xie Ting had stayed by his side since childhood, presumably to keep her promise and become his wife. But Xie Ting was now extremely homophobic, so this wife was truly unqualified.

Chu Chenghuan woke up from his dream after taking a shower. When he went out, his cell phone was still ringing. When he answered it, he heard Xie Ting's complaining voice.

"I called five times before he answered. Sports day! Sports day today, you have to come to school early!"

No. 1 Middle School will hold a sports meet in November, which is open only to sophomores. It's said that this is because they need to sprint through their studies in their senior year, and now is their last chance to relax.

Chu Chenghuan didn't participate in anything. But Xie Ting, unbeknownst to him, signed him up for long-distance running, long jump, and shot put. He discovered that one day, the physical education committee still asked him to go to training. And there, beside him, a stunned Xie Ting, grinning, was the one who shamelessly bumped his shoulder, making no attempt to explain.

Xie Ting, who did not participate in anything. It's said that a young master's followers shouldn't be too ostentatious.

Chu Chenghuan felt a little unhappy when he thought about this, but because of the dream, Chu Chenghuan always felt that he should be gentler to Xie Ting, so he just nodded.

Xie Ting excitedly said, "Then I'll wait for you at the intersection in front of the school."

Then he hung up the phone.

Xie Ting stopped living at Chu Chenghuan's house after the summer vacation of his freshman year. At the end of his freshman year, Xie Ting's Chinese composition went off topic, resulting in a failing grade and his overall grade ranking falling to the bottom. He was about to enter his second year, which would be his third. Xie's father only had Xie Ting, so naturally, he wanted him to get into a good university. So, after his second year, Xie's father took care of his son himself. No matter how busy he was, he made sure to make time for his son's education.

Now that he's taking care of his son himself, Dad Xie finally understands why his son's grades aren't improving despite hiring a tutor. In the middle of the night, he secretly watches TV while he's asleep! If he hadn't gotten up to drink water, he wouldn't have noticed!

In just half a year, Dad Xie felt that he had aged several years, especially when he saw the well-behaved and obedient daughter of his relatives, and his own bastard son who either watched TV or secretly ran out to buy barbecue in the middle of the night, he felt even more tired.

But the only thing to be thankful for is that although Tingting is greedy and playful, he has good character, is sweet-mouthed, popular, and looks like his mother, which is good-looking. This is also the reason why Xie's father, who was angry at Xie Ting at midnight, forced himself not to hit Xie Ting.

Early in the morning, Xie Ting rode his bicycle to school. When he arrived at the intersection where he had an appointment with Chu Chenghuan, Xie Ting stopped, put his feet on the ground, rested his elbows on the handlebars, and waited for Chu Chenghuan to arrive.

Soon, a familiar car appeared in the distance. Chu Chenghuan, wearing the black and white uniform of No. 1 Middle School, got out. With broad shoulders and long legs, Xie Ting was momentarily stunned. As he approached, Xie Ting could even smell a fragrance. He couldn't take his eyes off the car and said from the bottom of his heart, "Brother, you look handsome again."

Chu Chenghuan hummed lightly and sat in the back seat of Xie Ting's car.

Xie Ting grabbed the handlebars and rushed to school with Chu Chenghuan, muttering, "Master, you are so cold."

Chu Chenghuan continued indifferently, "Isn't that the truth? Thanks to you, I am now the most handsome boy on campus."

The morning breeze blew up Xie Ting's unzipped school uniform. Chu Chenghuan directly surrounded Xie Ting, accurately found Xie Ting's zipper, and pulled up Xie Ting's school uniform.

Xie Ting didn't care, and didn't respond to Chu Chenghuan's question. It was indeed thanks to him, and his words were just quibbling. He didn't quibble. Besides, today was the sports meet, and Chu Chenghuan, as the first ever school idol, had made it incredibly lively. There were even a few people from other schools who wanted to come and watch, but their school wouldn't let them in.

The school radio was warming up for the sports meet, enthusiastically discussing the event. The first event was the relay race, and Chu Chenghuan, a competitor, needed to wait in the playground's waiting area. Xie Ting, in the audience, cheered Chu Chenghuan on.

After the relay race, the sharp-eyed Xie Ting noticed that some people went to deliver water, and some people gave it to Chu Chenghuan, but Chu Chenghuan confiscated it.

Xie Ting stood up and took the unopened bottle of mineral water from Tong Hao's hand. "Don't let my brother get thirsty. He still has a long run to do."

Xie Ting took the water and went to the stage to find Chu Chenghuan.

Tong Hao: “…”

The relay race wasn't long, and Chu Chenghuan, who was used to exercising, didn't even break a sweat. After turning down several offers of water, Xie Ting finally arrived. Chu Chenghuan glanced at the water in Xie Ting's hand, and after Xie Ting pushed it into his hand, he didn't take it, saying, "I don't have the energy."

Xie Ting unscrewed the bottle cap without saying anything. Chu Chenghuan was in a very good mood.

"Are they so close? That's too gay!"

Xie Ting, with his sharp ears, overheard the conversation and turned his head to see the girl holding a red flag. He hadn't seen it clearly from the audience before, but now he could see it clearly. This wasn't just a simple red flag; it had the words "Chu Chenghuan will win" written on it in large letters.

Xie Ting's eyes lit up, "Chu Chenghuan, you have support. No, I have to support you too."

Xie Ting screwed the cap back on, returned the water to Xie Ting, and warned: "Don't make trouble."

Xie Ting closed his ears only to Chu Chenghuan, "I'll go ask them if they have any extra ones."

Xie Ting simply left Chu Chenghuan behind and went to the girl, and Chu Chenghuan couldn't even catch her.

Chu Chenghuan realized that something was wrong. Xie Ting was going to embarrass him again.

The girl wasn't from Xie Ting's class, but Xie Ting, being very outgoing, asked directly, "Classmate, do you have any extra red flags? I want to cheer for Chu Chenghuan too!"

Xie Ting was not bad looking, and his voice was even more gentle and pleasant. Several girls blushed instantly and gave Xie Ting a thumbs up, saying, "Are you very close to Chu Chenghuan? He just drank your water."

Xie Ting waved the flag he had just received, his eyes curved as he said, "Best friend. Chu Chenghuan is more distant; he won't accept water from strangers."

Xie Ting also found an excuse for Chu Chenghuan's arrogant behavior.

The girl smiled and said: "As long as he refuses to accept the water from all the other girls, we are happy to continue to send it and continue to be rejected."

Xie Ting scratched his face, it turned out that he was a fellow traveler!

He had always been disliked by Chu Chenghuan, but he had always been clinging to Chu Chenghuan. He had always been disliked, but he had always been clinging to him. If one day he stopped disliking him, Xie Ting would stop clinging to him.

Because the long-distance running event was about to begin, Xie Ting went to the nearest abandoned old teaching building to use the restroom after receiving the flag. However, Xie Ting had lived a life of comfort and had lost all sense of caution, so he only realized when the restroom door was locked by someone outside.

Xie Ting pushed the door, but it didn't open.

Xie Ting was confused and asked clearly, "Who's outside? Why did you lock me up?"

A voice unexpectedly came from outside the door, "I'll teach you a lesson. Stay away from Chu Chenghuan from now on!"

It was a girl, her voice trembling a little, as if it was her first time doing something like this. But Xie Ting understood: this was Chu Chenghuan's fangirl.

Xie Ting was even more confused. "I'm Chu Chenghuan's friend. Did you lock up the wrong person?"

A cold voice came from outside the door: "What friend? Chu Chenghuan's eyes looking at you are not innocent at all. Xie Ting, as long as you stay away from Chu Chenghuan, I will let you out."

She was right, she even knew his name. She actually considered him a love rival?

Xie Ting didn't bother to explain anything and quickly agreed: "Okay, I promise you, stay away from him."

The people outside are obviously intelligent.

"Then you say bad things about Chu Chenghuan, calling him trash or something unpleasant like that. I'll record it. I'll play it for Chu Chenghuan later. You promised me verbally, and I can't do anything if you don't follow through. So I can only ask you to say something that will make Chu Chenghuan hate you!"

Xie Ting:?

How could she know so well that he was a man who did not keep his word?

Xie Ting stared at the bathroom door and murmured, "Sister, if you have any scheming, you'll use me as your own. You should please me. If you do, I can even help you get in touch with Chu Chenghuan."

"Bullshit. If you stay with Chu Chenghuan, he will become gay sooner or later!" The girl cursed!

Xie Ting:!

Xie Ting kicked the toilet door hard and said fiercely, "Don't slander my brother's sexual orientation!"

It was quiet outside for a while. Xie Ting put his ear to the toilet door and shouted, "Hey, you didn't leave me here, did you? Let me out!"

Then a basin of cold water fell from the sky. Although the weather in November wasn't particularly cold, it certainly wasn't hot either. Xie Ting was soaked from head to toe and shivered from the cold. The voice outside was threatening again: "Are you going to tell me or not?"

Xie Ting: !!

Xie Ting was also a man with a bad temper. He yelled, "I won't tell you! I won't tell you! If you have the guts, don't let me out! If I go out, I'll make Chu Chenghuan hate you!"

Then another basin of cold water.

Xie Ting was stunned by the cold.

"Then you can just stay there until someone finds you! There's no surveillance here, no one will know I did it!"

Soon, there was no sound outside. Xie Ting took off his wet school uniform, gritted his teeth, and pressed his ear to the door, but there was no sound at all.

Xie Ting's eyes widened. Damn, why did he just run away?

Xie Ting sneezed violently, feeling terribly cold. Was he going to die in the bathroom?

Soon, Xie Tingchao's loud cry for help was heard from the toilet.

"Someone, help me!!!"
