Chapter 20: The Rival's Story - The Dead Gay Guy

When Xie Changyu got back to his dorm, he was so exhausted he could barely stand on the bed. The aftereffects of running 1500 meters were kicking in; he felt weak all over and his hands were almost powerless.

well.

He rolled over and looked pitifully at Qi Yan under the bed, "Could you go to the cafeteria for me to get some food later? I don't want to move right now."

Qi Yan was turning on the air conditioner. The outdoor temperature was high and the indoor temperature was low. He saw that Xie Changyu refused to wear a sweatshirt and only wore a short-sleeved shirt, so he simply turned on the air conditioner to raise the temperature.

After everything was ready, Qi Yan looked up and said, "I'll have the restaurant staff send over some of your favorite dishes later."

A seemingly casual remark sent a jolt through Xie Changyu, his eyes widening in astonishment. "You can do that?!"

Qi Yan smiled and said, "If you're not afraid of getting tired of the food, you can have them deliver your meals every day. After all, you are a lifetime VIP customer."

Xie Changyu was also learning for the first time that this card had this function, and he couldn't help but ask, "Is it indefinite?"

"certainly."

Qi Yan joked, "You can find a class nearby in the future, which will save you a lot of money on food."

The air conditioner started running slowly, and the temperature in the dormitory gradually rose. Xie Changyu squinted and sighed. He lay on the large bed that had been changed, feeling the soft touch and feeling very comfortable.

He said, "I'll think about it."

Of course, he was just joking. How could he possibly work here just for a card? He had promised his parents that he would return to the north after graduation.

His only act of rebellion before was secretly enrolling in a school in the south without his parents' knowledge, for which they scolded him severely, though he didn't regret it.

Suddenly, his phone vibrated. Xie Changyu groped for it with his eyes closed, held it up to his eyes, opened them, and saw a WeChat verification message.

Gu Qingjia.

His eyes widened instantly when he saw the name. He quickly sat up, staring at his phone with hatred in his eyes. That damned Gu Qingjia had actually sent him a friend request.

This is the first time this person has existed since he deleted them last time.

But when he looked left and right, he only saw that the other party sent a name as a verification message and did not send anything else.

Oh.

Xie Changyu decisively clicked "decline," and then a new verification message appeared.

Do you remember what happened last time?

I forgot, I forgot.

He continued to click "no".

The other person sent a new message: "I don't like men."

She described him as the kind of guy she likes.

Xie Changyu got angry and clicked "reject" again.

That was my first time.

That was his first time too!

His virginity!!!

Xie Changyu was even angrier when he saw this sentence. Maybe it meant the first time was later, but who knows how dirty the first time was? He felt so cheated.

reject.

Just then, his Alipay account suddenly emitted a loud notification: "[Your Alipay account has received 10,000 yuan.]"

Xie Changyu was initially surprised, wondering where the money came from and whether it was a scam. But the next second, WeChat sent a new verification message.

I forgot about the 10,000 yuan I promised you, but I'm giving it to you now.

The case is solved.

He finally got back the 10,000 yuan that the other party had cheated him out of.

But for some reason, Xie Changyu had a feeling of being paid for something. He shuddered and shook his head to get rid of the thought.

This is his hard-earned money; he'd rather take it than not.

After hesitating for a moment, he accepted the friend request this time and then added the nickname "Black-hearted Ghost" to his contact.

[Heartless Ghost: ...Xie Changyu, how dare you delete me from your friends list!]

[The Heartless Demon: ...You've rejected me so many times.]

Xie Changyu swallowed hard. He was a little guilty at first because he was afraid of Gu Qingjia. But he quickly realized how dare this person question him. How could he be so annoying?

He quickly typed back: "Who told you to do that to me! Are you a pervert?"

I'm already being lenient by not calling the police to arrest you!

[The Heartless One: I can explain that...]

Xie Changyu's confidence grew even stronger upon seeing this. "Then explain it to me?"

[The Heartless Demon: ...I'm drunk.]

That's it?

[The Heartless Man: I'm really drunk.]

I'm going to sue you.

[The heartless devil: I'm the one who got taken advantage of; I should be the one saying that.]

You want to sue me?!

Xie Changyu was furious. He had been tricked by this guy and even lost his virginity, and now this guy wanted to sue him!

[You gay bastard, you want to sue me!]

[Heartless Ghost: ? I already said I don't like men.]

"Then how do you explain what happened last time? It couldn't have been me who initiated it!"

[The heartless devil: I don't think it could have been me who initiated it.]

The two started shifting blame, and neither could convince the other in the end. Gu Qingjia then bluntly said, "I'll give you 100,000 yuan as an apology fee."

[The Heartless One: I was the one who called you over last time, so that's my fault. I apologize this time, but I don't admit that I initiated it.]

Xie Changyu received another Alipay notification sound for 100,000 yuan. He didn't even have time to hesitate before the money was sent directly to him.

He hesitated, thinking he should just act first and ask questions later, because he saw how agitated the other party was, and it was unlikely that he was the one who caused that incident.

It might just be an accident.

Unwilling to admit that he had been bought off with money, Xie Changyu silently shut his mouth and sent an OK emoji.

Then he looked at the money in his Alipay account and grinned foolishly. He became rich overnight, no, in a minute, in a minute.

At this point, innocence became something external, and Xie Changyu simply treated it as if he had been bitten by a dog and forgot about it.

On the other end of the phone, Gu Qingjia's face was pale, her hand had needle marks, and her face was slightly flushed from the emotional excitement, but it quickly faded.

His handsome face was somewhat thin, and he sat calmly on the edge of the bed, his lower body covered by a quilt.

The phone flashed. [Changyu: No one is allowed to mention this again, and you should forget about it as well.]

Don't worry, I'll forget about it completely.

After replying to the message, he clicked his tongue and looked at his hands with disdain.

That's so stupid.

How could I be so stupid?

Leaving aside the complexities of his feelings when he woke up that day, the problem was that he had no idea that he would need to clean up afterwards. He carried his belongings with him for a whole day, then developed a fever, which eventually turned into pneumonia. It took him half a month to recover.

He was so conflicted and hesitant that he only contacted the other party now.

Hey boss, wanna hang out today? You haven't been out for almost half a month, your underlings miss you!

"Yeah, Brother Gu, you're out having fun."

Gu Qingjia looked at the messages in the group chat with annoyance, and replied that he wouldn't go, saying he would go tomorrow and asking them not to bother him.

People in the group quickly started a chain of "received" messages.

Okay, okay, boss, see you tomorrow.
