Chapter 115 Extra

Extra: Living Together (Part 3)

The pain of not being able to sleep was constant, especially the steady and continuous breathing sound close to the back of the body. Every minute and every second was torture for Chen Qizhao. Fortunately, this torture finally succumbed to sleepiness. Chen Qizhao didn't know how long he had dragged on, but when he woke up the next day, it was already past ten o'clock.

[-Chen Yuhuai: I didn’t wake you up this morning, the porridge is in the thermos. ]

[-Chen Yuhuai: I have changed the water in the balcony spray bottle. ]

Chen Qizhao replied sleepily, "I know." He had no classes this morning, but Shen Yuhuai had to go to work today.

The two people's schedules are synchronized, but not too synchronized.

Chen Qizhao got up slowly, washed up, and went to the living room to find the breakfast that Shen Yuhuai had left for him. The porridge was lean meat porridge, with some green vegetables and scallops added to enhance the flavor. He poured himself a bowl. His mind was as dull as a paste and his back pain had never been so obvious. While eating, he picked up his phone and started searching for nearby gyms.

People in the group were still chattering away. Yan Kailin and Liu Kai had been arguing for the entire day yesterday. Cheng Rong, who was not at the scene, also knew about the situation. The three of them pushed the news in a small group to the top of the page. As soon as Chen Qizhao opened the page, he saw thousands of messages. He was too lazy to even look through them and just left an ellipsis after the latest one. No one replied to him.

The three people who had been partying all night were probably still sleeping.

After finishing his meal, Chen Qizhao packed up his things, went to the dormitory to get some clothes, and planned to return to school in the afternoon.

The occupancy rate of Shen Yuhuai's apartment is quite high, but the underground garage is quite spacious. Chen Qizhao sent a message to Xiao Zhou, asking him to visit the property management when he has time and see if there is a chance to buy a parking space so that he doesn't have to take a taxi every time he goes out.

[-Zhao: I watered the flowers for you, is this pot dying soon? [picture]]

[-Zhao: I took the medicine, you don’t need to ask. ]

[-Zhao: I have classes in the afternoon, so I can leave around 5:30. ]

[-Zhao: What time do you get off work? ]

I can't concentrate on my morning tasks.

It was already afternoon when a group of people finished their work. When Shen Yuhuai was taking a break, he saw the messages sent by his boyfriend at noon, one by one, as if he was reporting his itinerary.

[-shen: It’s okay, I’ll go back and change its position. ]

[-shen: Yeah. ]

[-shen: I get off work at five and will pick you up after class. Which classroom? ]

Liu Sui poked his head out of the lounge and said, "Brother, if you stay any later, there will be nothing to eat in the cafeteria."

“Okay.” Shen Yuhuai responded, but didn’t move, still sending messages.

Liu Sui: “…”

In the past, it was always Shen Yuhuai who urged him to eat. When would it be his turn to urge Shen Yuhuai?

"Men in love are different." Liu Sui said to others.

Colleague: “Are you envious?”

Liu Sui: "Single nobles never envy others."

Colleague: “Oh.”

Liu Sui couldn't help but look inside. "Does it take so long to send a message? They can just use voice instead of typing."

"What's the voice message?" The colleague checked the time and said, "Is her boyfriend in class? It's past two o'clock now, and it's the first class of the afternoon at S University."

Liu Sui: “…”

-

There are two classes in the afternoon. The second one is about macroeconomics. The teacher of this course likes to call the roll.

Chen Qizhao arrived early and found a seat by the window in the middle row. When he turned on his phone, he saw Cheng Rong and his group of people who had just woken up chatting, especially Yan Kailin, who kept sending emoticons. Students entered the classroom one after another. Macroeconomics is a large class, and in addition to students from the class, there were also students from other classes in the major. In the past, Chen Qizhao would always sit in the front row when he arrived late. Today, he came early and sat in the middle row, and several students sat next to him.

Lu Qi was in the same class as Chen Qizhao. He usually had little interaction with this big shot, and he hardly saw him in class activities, but he had a good impression of Chen Qizhao. Chen Qizhao was something of a legend in their class. Although he wasn't often mentioned in the class group, this group of boys had also discussed Chen Qizhao privately.

The main reason was that Chen Qizhao was too special. When university just started, someone posted his photo on the school forum, and a group of senior students came to see him during military training.

During the military training, he was very good at boxing and kicking, and could fight with the instructors. He was also handsome, and his academic performance was not bad. He occasionally played basketball with the boys in the Sports Department. At first, a few boys in their class looked down on Chen Qizhao. They talked about Chen Qizhao in private and sent photos of him smoking to their small group, thinking that he was a very pretentious person. Lu Qi's impression of Chen Qizhao was average at first, until one time their class's basketball seat was taken away, and Chen Qizhao, who happened to be playing basketball on the next court, helped them get it back.

After that, there were fewer people talking about Chen Qizhao in the class.

As a result, he had a more or less new understanding of Chen Qizhao.

He found that this big guy often disappeared after class, had fewer extracurricular activities, generally did not attend parties or class activities, and did not even join clubs or student unions. He kept to himself. In the second half of last semester, he took leave almost every week and finally missed the final exam.

"Let me sit inside." Lu Qi was in the dormitory with his friends. There were exactly five people in the row next to Chen Qizhao, so he took the initiative to sit next to Chen Qizhao.

As soon as he sat down, Chen Qizhao, who was playing with his mobile phone, looked up and glanced at him.

Lu Qi greeted him in a friendly manner, put the book aside, and noticed another professional book on Chen Qizhao's desk. It was not the book for their class, but the pages were all because he vaguely recognized the words "market" and "risk". He suddenly remembered that someone had said that Chen Qizhao had his own company outside.

The old professor in the classroom was still talking about chart analysis. From time to time, Lu Qi was attracted by Chen Qizhao next to him. Sometimes he saw him flipping through a book, and sometimes he saw him opening the vx interface and chatting about something.

Noticed that he stayed on a chat box page for a long time.

"Is Chen Qizhao chatting with his girlfriend?" the roommate next to him asked in a low voice.

Lu Qi came back to his senses, "How did you know?"

The roommate was sharp-eyed and added, "He just smiled a few times, and I saw that the color of the profile picture didn't change."

Lu Qi asked: "No way?"

The roommate said, "Of course not. He's so handsome, it would be strange if he didn't have a girlfriend! I heard someone say that someone came to see Chen Qizhao after class."

Chen Qizhao did not go out of his way to cover up the chat history. While the teacher was lecturing, he would occasionally flip through a book or reply to messages on his phone.

It seemed that he was not paying much attention to the class, but Lu Qi noticed that his books were turning at the same speed as the teacher's lecture. The only difference was that there were no notes on the books, and they were empty.

As Lu Qi was thinking, he suddenly noticed a small red mark on the left side of Chen Qizhao's neck.

The red mark was at the back, about the size of a fingernail, and was particularly obvious on Chen Qizhao's fair skin.

There were a lot of messages in the group, most of which were asking about the relationship between Chen Qizhao and Shen Yuhuai. Chen Qizhao picked out a few to reply to, and the rest of the time he switched back to read Shen Yuhuai's messages, but Shen Yuhuai's last reply to him was two hours ago. Chen Qizhao was used to this. Shen Yuhuai usually didn't bring his cell phone into the lab, and it was common for him to disappear for a few hours. He deleted the chat history and noticed the gaze next to him.

Chen Qizhao was a person who was very sensitive to sight. The temporary deskmate next to him had been looking at him since the beginning of the class without saying a word.

He glanced at the other person briefly, and the other person quickly looked away.

This person should be a classmate. I don’t remember his name, Chen Qizhao, but he looks familiar.

He has had little interaction with his classmates in his life. During their freshman year, those who got along well with each other were basically gathered together. Except for the class monitor who he talked to the most, he had a similar impression of other classmates.

[-Yan Kailin: Brother, does that mean we have no hope of drinking together in the future? ]

[-Chen Qizhao: How come you don’t have any hope? ]

[-Yan Kailin: You drank, will Chen Yuhuai complain? ]

[-Chen Qizhao: …He didn’t sue. ]

After saying this, the people in the group encouraged Chen Qizhao to go out for a drink on the weekend. Chen Qizhao hadn't touched alcohol for a long time. He hadn't drunk or smoked during this period, and he had been itching to do it for a long time. It is difficult to change a habit of more than ten years. He tried his best to restrain himself from smoking in front of Shen Yuhuai, and even rinsed his mouth after every cigarette. The two of them loved kissing so much that it was easy to be discovered whether they smoked or not.

One time he went to smoke in front of the apartment and was almost discovered by Shen Yuhuai. After that, he never smoked in front of Shen Yuhuai again.

He knew that smoking was bad, Shen Yuhuai didn’t like it, and he was already trying to quit.

It’s just that the process of quitting smoking is a bit long.

[-Cheng Rong: When is that? Don't just say you can't do it! ]

[-Chen Qizhao: Tuesday. ]

On Tuesday, Shen Yuhuai had a night shift and he had classes in the evening, so he stayed at the school.

Chen Qizhao thought that it was okay for him to drink occasionally, just once every half a month, and not in front of Shen Yuhuai.

The boring class passed quickly. Chen Qizhao scribbled down his notes and homework, watching people leave the classroom one after another. Lu Qi did not leave. His roommate was asking questions to the teacher upstairs. He was standing downstairs waiting for someone, and his eyes inadvertently glanced in the direction of Chen Qizhao.

Chen Qizhao sat in his original position, with his eyes downcast, swiping his phone, typing something with his fingers moving slightly.

Lu Qi looked at him in confusion, because in the past Chen Qizhao would leave very early after class.

As he was thinking, he suddenly noticed a tall man appearing at the front door of the classroom.

The other person was dressed casually, looked handsome, and was carrying a computer bag in his hand.

He walked in, his eyes stopped at a corner of the classroom, and he quickly walked over.

Lu Qi's attention was on him, and after a while he suddenly caught a glimpse of a boy passing by.

Chen Qizhao was carrying a loose bag on one shoulder and walking with a breeze. After a while, he passed the other people in the classroom and walked straight to the man.

The two seemed to say something and walked out side by side.

"Lu Qi, why are you standing there like an idiot? Let's go." The roommate shouted.

Lu Qi hurriedly followed, keeping his eyes on the two people walking in front.

Chen Qizhao and his friend were not walking fast. Just a few steps ahead of them, his roommate said this to someone else.

Maybe because he was standing at the back, Lu Qi suddenly saw a little red mark on the back of Chen Qizhao's neck. The rest was buried in his coat and could not be seen clearly. But this one was deeper red than the one that was glanced at from the side… It was imprinted on the bones of Chen Qizhao’s neck, moving from time to time as the other person turned his head while talking.

When the stairs turned down, the man standing next to Chen Qizhao suddenly turned his head.

Lu Qi noticed that the other person's eyes fell on him. The narrow eyes under the glasses were cold and distant, which made Lu Qi immediately retract his gaze and dared not look again.

After going down the stairs, Chen Qizhao and the other person walked in another direction.

"Why do you keep looking back?" asked my roommate.

"No." Lu Qi just retracted his gaze and suddenly saw the man holding Chen Qizhao's hand, and was stunned.

Shen Yuhuai’s car was parked not far away, at the temporary parking space on the school road not far from the teaching building.

As soon as Chen Qizhao sat in the co-pilot seat, he heard Shen Yuhuai speaking.

"Is that your classmate behind you? He was looking at you the whole time."

Chen Qizhao paused for a moment and threw his schoolbag into the back seat: "I didn't notice it, I guess."

Just as he was about to pull the seat belt, Shen Yuhuai suddenly came over, his large hand fell on the back of his neck, and he moved a little closer to him. Chen Qizhao still held the seat belt in his hand, and when he saw this, he looked up and kissed Shen Yuhuai.

Shen Yuhuai's hand moved slightly downward, caressing the back of Chen Qizhao's neck, stroking the spot where he had bitten last night.

"Hiss - a little sour."

Shen Yuhuai: "What's sour?"

Chen Qizhao said: "Neck, shoulders."

Shen Yuhuai changed the position of his hands and pinched his shoulders.

When the two kissed, Shen Yuhuai always liked to touch his hair or neck, pinching his bones every time. I don’t know what happened today, but after he got up, he felt sore in his back and waist, even his shoulder blades were uncomfortable, and the skin on his neck was a little stinging. He couldn't tell if it was because of muscle soreness from doing it for too long or something else, but doing it yesterday was really too strenuous.

During this moment, Chen Qizhao's phone lit up and a message from a friend who had just passed through came in.

Then several messages popped up in succession, and in the quiet carriage, the vibration sound attracted Shen Yuhuai's attention.

[Xingchen Fitness Center-Customer Service: Hello sir, what can I ask for your advice? ]

[Xingchen Fitness Center-Customer Service: [Picture][Picture][Picture]]

[Xingchen Fitness Center-Customer Service: We have several packages here, and we also have private training classes. Do you have a trainer in mind...]

Chen Qizhao: “…”

Shen Yuhuai: “Did someone send you a message?”

He was about to check Chen Qizhao's phone when the latter suddenly grabbed the phone and hid it behind his back. "It should be a class assignment sent by the class group. The teacher sent a lot of assignments today. The student council sent it to the class group."

Shen Yuhuai asked, “That’s quite a lot, and there are also set meals?”

Chen Qizhao hid his phone in his pocket and bit Shen Yuhuai's lips directly. While breathing intermittently, he explained: "...optional, you need to divide into groups, you read it wrong."
