Chapter 16 Night Talk
Even though Xie Ting was so sad, Chu Chenghuan still didn't give in.
"If you don't want to study, go back and rest." He even drove Xie Ting away heartlessly.
The grief-stricken Xie Ting took off his shoes, lifted Chu Chenghuan's quilt, crawled in and closed his eyes.
Chu Chenghuan: "..."
Chu Chenghuan also felt a little guilty about Xie Ting, so he let Xie Ting sleep on his bed while he went to help Xie Ting check his math test. In the bedroom, where only the sound of turning pages could be heard, Xie Ting suddenly asked, "Chu Chenghuan, what about the bond between us?"
Chu Chenghuan: "..."
"What about the friendship we've had since we were little?"
Chu Chenghuan also sighed softly. He felt that not attending the same high school as Xie Ting was for Xie Ting's own good. However, when Chu Chenghuan turned around, Xie Ting, who was covered with his quilt, looked at him sadly from the side, as if she had suffered a huge betrayal.
Chu Chenghuan was silent for a moment, put the pen cap back on, went to wash his hands, and then lifted the quilt and lay down in the same way.
Xie Ting moved aside and whispered in Chu Chenghuan's ear, "Are we friends?"
Chu Chenghuan: “…Of course.”
Xie Ting asked angrily: "If that's the case, why can't we go to the same high school?"
Chu Chenghuan fell silent again.
Xie Ting was deflated for a second: "No, you don't consider me a friend at all. You just regard me as your servant."
Chu Chenghuan tilted his head, a frown on his forehead, "If I treat you as a servant, can you sleep in my bed now?"
"That's the lackey. Young Master wants to go to a better high school. In order to avoid leaving any handle on you in high school, you have to abandon the lackey who has been following you." Xie Ting felt even more hopeless.
Chu Chenghuan found it even more ridiculous.
"Xie Ting, could you please stop making up these things? There's a reason why I'm not in the same high school as you."
Xie Ting, who was almost dying, immediately asked excitedly, "What's the reason? What could have made you abandon your childhood sweetheart?"
Compared to Xie Ting's excitement, Chu Chenghuan looked at the ceiling calmly and spoke his mind: "Because I am ashamed of myself now."
Xie Ting didn't understand at all.
"What do you mean? Why are you ashamed? Is this the reason why you don't want to go to the same high school with me?"
Chu Chenghuan hummed.
Xie Ting lifted the quilt, sat on the bed, lowered his eyes and said firmly: "So as long as you are not ashamed of yourself now, you are willing to go to the same high school with me?"
Chu Chenghuan hummed again and covered himself with the quilt that Xie Ting had lifted up.
Xie Ting rubbed his hands together and said, "Tell me, you must be obsessed with something. What is there to be ashamed of? Is this the reason why you don't want to go to the same high school as me? Even if there is, I can enlighten you!"
Chu Chenghuan said nothing.
Xie Ting crawled into the bed again, sleeping side by side with Chu Chenghuan, and nudged Chu Chenghuan's shoulder with his own. "Tell me, we are friends, and we have to solve problems together."
Chu Chenghuan tilted his head.
Xie Ting is serious.
Chu Chenghuan blurted out, "I have a lot of leverage over you."
Xie Ting was surprised, his eyes slowly widening. "Threatening me? So this is something that can't be revealed. Don't worry, I'm very tight-lipped."
Chu Chenghuan finally spoke, his voice a little hoarse from the teenage voice change: "In my heart, I will treat you as a... girl."
Chu Chenghuan still couldn't say the word "princess" in front of Xie Ting.
Xie Ting was stunned. After a long pause, he came back to his senses and was even more confused. "No, why would you threaten me with something like this? Would I tell others that you treat me like a girl?"
Chu Chenghuan hadn't expected that Xie Tingxian was concerned about this. Chu Chenghuan didn't answer, but remained firm: "As long as you can accept my mentality, we can go to the same high school."
Xie Ting was completely stunned. What the hell was this? Did Chu Chenghuan really think of him as a girl?
Why? Could it be that she likes him?
Xie Ting's heart rose to his throat, "You really don't have anyone you like right now, right?"
Chu Chenghuan still quickly nodded, without any trace of lying.
Xie Ting felt relieved, but he still didn't understand: "Why? Am I a girl? Girls shouldn't be as vulgar as me, right?"
Chu Chenghuan said without hiding anything: "Because you are beautiful."
Xie Ting's scalp tingled. Every word Chu Chenghuan said now frightened him! However, it was also true that he was handsome, and Chu Chenghuan was not without aesthetic taste.
Xie Ting moved slightly to the other side of the bed, keeping a little distance from Chu Chenghuan, and said hesitantly: "But you secretly treat me as a girl in your heart, and I don't know if you don't tell me. Why do you want to tell me? Are you trying to do something?"
Chu Chenghuan was puzzled: "What can I do?"
Xie Ting asked back with reason and evidence: "Then why do you have to let me know what you think?"
Since everything had been said, Chu Chenghuan also analyzed: "Because if we were still together in high school, then I would definitely often uncontrollably think about you as a girl in my heart. Since you are a boy, it would be weird for me to think like that. So, the best way to stop the loss is that we didn't go to high school together. Naturally, I wouldn't think about these things if we couldn't see each other. Or, if you can accept that I think of you as a girl in my heart, then all my thoughts are not weird, and whether we are in the same high school or not will have no effect on me."
Xie Ting understood.
It's probably about perverts who want to integrate into the lives of ordinary people, but at the same time they don't change their perverted behavior and try to hope that ordinary people will accept their perverted behavior.
Xie Ting asked: "When did you have this idea?"
"Five."
Xie Ting:!
Xie Ting was shocked: "So you thought I was beautiful when you were five?"
Chu Chenghuan hummed.
Xie Ting was also confused. If that was the case, Chu Chenghuan thought of him as a girl. Would that mean Chu Chenghuan would have to be gay to not like him? After all, in Chu Chenghuan's eyes, he was a girl.
Xie Ting poked Chu Chenghuan's arm, and when Chu Chenghuan looked at him, he pointed at his nose and said, "Am I a man or a woman?"
Chu Chenghuan explained: "I know you are a boy, but that doesn't stop me from thinking of you as a girl in my heart. However, I only think of you occasionally."
Xie Ting was confused.
Confused, Xie Ting digested what he could understand and then asked, "When is it sometimes?"
"When I found out you were beautiful." Chu Chenghuan didn't pretend at all.
"But isn't it an objective fact that I'm beautiful? Why do I need to discover it?"
Chu Chenghuan said mercilessly: "Because you are so mean most of the time, I can't find you beautiful."
Xie Ting: “…”
What a poisonous mouth.
"Wait a minute, let me think about it."
Chu Chenghuan didn't say anything, and Xie Ting really started thinking about it. So, the current situation was that he was always a boy in Chu Chenghuan's eyes, but occasionally when Chu Chenghuan found him beautiful, he would treat him as a girl in his heart.
Xie Ting thought that being mistaken for a girl because he was too pretty wasn't a big deal. It wasn't a slanderous statement. Chu Chenghuan was just thinking it in his mind. Just like when his Chinese teacher slapped someone on the hand, he thought the teacher looked like a man. He never dared to let his teacher know his thoughts.
Therefore, Chu Chenghuan really treated him as a friend in this life, which was why he felt bad about having such thoughts in his heart and wanted to go to high school separately from him.
Tsk.
I'm a little touched!
However, Xie Ting still asked a sharp question: "Are you gay?"
Chu Chenghuan: "...You are so discriminatory against homosexuals? If I were gay, would you cut off contact with me?"
Xie Ting hummed.
Chu Chenghuan said firmly: "I'm sorry to disappoint you, I'm not."
Full marks answer!
Xie Ting patted Chu Chenghuan's shoulder approvingly, "Then as long as you are happy. The bond between us cannot be broken after graduating from junior high school."
Chu Chenghuan opened his eyes slightly: "Can you accept that I treat you as a girl?
Xie Ting crawled into bed and closed his eyes: "It doesn't matter, I'm sleepy, I don't want to study anymore. Good night, Master!"
Chu Chenghuan stood up and turned off the lights, thinking silently. If Xie Ting could accept that he thought of her as a girl, then when he was in high school, if he had any more curious thoughts, he would have obtained Xie Ting's permission.
He has now laid everything bare with Xie Ting.
