To be fair, Chen Yubai has a very refined and handsome face, is tall, has good grades, and is approachable, so he has always been quite popular with the opposite sex.
However, because the two people behind him were so flamboyant in appearance and had such distinctive characteristics, and their great achievements were due to their outstanding qualities, Chen Yubai never thought that Lin Qian would resolutely choose him, who was handsome in a very simple and unpretentious way, between himself and these two flamboyant women.
What does this tell us?
This means love is just around the corner!
In the face of love, friendship is insignificant.
So, the truly straight man Chen Yubai abandoned Qin Zigui without hesitation and smiled gentlemanly and gently at Lin Qian: "Okay, Lin Qian."
Lin Qian breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this answer.
Not bad, Chen Yubai is at least somewhat sensible.
Otherwise, if these two big shots get jealous and end up hurting the lives of innocent civilians, that wouldn't be good.
As for the rest...
As the ancients wisely said, "Do not look at what is improper, do not listen to what is improper, do not disturb what is improper, or you will surely die young."
So she can't hear anything, she can't see anything; she's just a quiet, beautiful young woman trying to cultivate longevity.
However, as soon as the beautiful girl turned around, the faint teeth marks on Qin Zigui's Adam's apple and Sheng Yan's shoulder caught her eye. Then, within three seconds, ten thousand things that might be censored by some literary website rushed through her mind.
hateful!
Those two men are so shameless!
It's practically provoking the wild horse in her mind!
Lin Qian clenched her fist indignantly, sat back down, took out a book that was wrapped up mysteriously, placed it on top of her Chinese textbook, and began to read. She frowned deeply, her face solemn, adopting a serious posture that said, "This beautiful lady is about to start studying, you stinky men don't talk to me."
Sheng Yan, who witnessed Lin Qian's entire change in expression, was speechless.
He felt like something was off.
"No, Lin Qian, it's not what you think..."
"I understand, I understand everything." Before he could finish speaking, Lin Qian interrupted him, then took out her earplugs and put them on, her intention to avoid the conversation couldn't be more obvious.
Sheng Yan: "..."
You think you understand everything just because you know it!
Seeing that things were getting complicated and his reputation as a straight man was about to be ruined, Sheng Yan gritted his teeth and turned to look at Qin Zigui.
Qin Zigui, however, adopted an indifferent attitude, leaning back in his chair and slowly said, "Looks like we're destined to be the ones using couple tickets together."
"Who said we're destined to be together?" Sheng Yan was in a state of extreme guilt and sensitivity because of the embarrassing dream he had last night. Hearing the related words, he retorted without thinking, "I, Sheng Yan, am a straight man of steel. Even if I were to jump off the roof of the Shiwai building, I would never use a couple's ticket with another man!"
"Okay, no need then." Qin Zigui wasn't very interested in the amusement park either. He sat up, took out a stack of A4 papers, and handed them to him. "I'll give you some intensive English cloze training this weekend. I've already compiled a hundred cloze questions, and I'll add fifty more later."
"..." Sheng Yan, who had just finished the ordeal of math, looked at the hundred cloze test questions, imagined his life for the next week, and then looked up and said seriously, "Perhaps you have heard of someone named Wang Jingze?"
Qin Zigui was writing "Sheng Xiaoyan's Study Plan Schedule" with his head down, looking completely unsurprised.
Sheng Yan felt embarrassed and retorted, "I mainly think that a prematurely aged person like you should go to an amusement park to experience what it means to be innocent, childlike, and energetic."
"And what will you do if I don't go?" Sheng Yan leaned closer, lowering his voice so that only the two of them could hear him.
Qin Zigui looked up at the strangely beautiful head in front of him.
Sheng Yan lowered his voice, his face full of righteous indignation: "Lin Qian invited that guy to the amusement park, shouldn't you go along and see what's going on? I'm covering for you!"
"?" Qin Zigui paused for a moment. "What kind of cover do I need you to provide?"
"Are you a blockhead?" Sheng Yan realized that Qin Zigui was truly clueless and said anxiously, "You're spying on the enemy! Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory! I was just about to help you broaden your horizons with that guy, aren't you going to step up now!"
Realizing who that person was referring to, Qin Zigui felt a lump in his throat: "What am I supposed to do?"
"What are you talking about? Don't be a coward! If you like her, just go for it!" Sheng Yan felt like he was really worrying himself sick over Qin Zigui, that blockhead.
Qin Zigui felt like he was about to get high blood pressure from Sheng Yan's blockhead behavior.
Why should he go to someone else? He clearly likes Sheng Yan. Even if he has to go to someone else, it should be Sheng Yan. What does it have to do with Chen Yubai?
So, all that Sheng Yan was doing earlier, trying to persuade Chen Yubai to broaden his horizons, was actually to help him pursue someone?
You're good at giving advice to others, but if you're so capable, why don't you broaden your own perspective?
Qin Zigui looked at Sheng Yan's disappointed expression and felt even more disappointed than him: "Go study, do your cloze test, and stop worrying about this nonsense."
Sheng Yan felt that his good intentions had been taken for granted: "You're allowed to tell me what to do, but I'm not allowed to tell you what to do?"
"I care about you so you can be healthy, study hard, and not have to go abroad. You care about me so I can have a relationship early. Are you sure there's a difference?" Qin Zigui calmly retorted.
Sheng Yan: "..."
That seems to make sense.
Seeing that Qin Zigui was about to take out another stack of A4 papers, Sheng Yan quickly picked up the stack of A4 papers and turned around.
If we don't care, then we don't care. Who cares anyway?
Qin Zigui then called to him, "Turn back."
Sheng Yan, slumped over the table, said irritably, "What?"
Qin Zigui: "Take your medicine."
Sheng Yan: "I won't eat."
He never liked taking medicine, but this morning he felt much better and didn't want to take it. Anyway, Qin Zigui couldn't force him to take it in public.
Sheng Yan lay sprawled on the table, stubbornly refusing to turn his head.
Then, three seconds later, a strange, mechanical female voice rang out in the quiet classroom of Class 1, Grade 11.
"Sheng Xiaoyan! Time to take your medicine! Sheng Xiaoyan! Time to take your medicine! Sheng Xiaoyan! Time to take your medicine..."
"Damn it!" Under the strange gazes of everyone, Sheng Yan quickly turned around and flicked off the switch on the little yellow chicken medicine box, gritting his teeth as he said, "Qin Zigui! How old are you, still pulling this stunt!"
Qin Zigui said calmly, "Aunt Xu asked me to find this in your medicine box yesterday. I didn't know there was such a surprise."
I'll never believe you!
Who exactly is the only legitimate grandson of the Xu family across three generations?
Sheng Yan had no idea what surprise Ms. Xu had conspired with Qin Zigui to remotely control him, so he could only grit his teeth and obediently finish his medicine.
If I had known I would suffer such a humiliating disgrace today, I would have preferred to go abroad!
What tripartite agreement? It's clearly a cruel and tyrannical act of two powerful nations against innocent teenagers!
Sheng Yan was so angry that he remembered his junior high school history knowledge. He chewed on the milk candy that Qin Zigui had peeled and handed to him with a vicious bite, turned around, took out his phone, and opened the wishing app.
[I hope that old hag Qin Zigui will stop interfering with me!!!]
Three seconds later.
[Wish rejected: This wish violates the character relationship settings or may affect the host's life destiny; therefore, it will not be approved at this time.]
Sheng Yan: "???"
What's wrong? Is Qin Zigui someone destined to take care of him?
Sheng Yan didn't believe it and tried again: [Hopefully Qin Zigui will leave me alone.]
Three seconds later.
[The wish was rejected again, for the same reasons as above]
Sheng Yan refused to believe it and continued to try.
Three more seconds.
[Your wish has been rejected again. Since the number of rejections this week has exceeded three, one wish slot has been cancelled. Please reconsider your wish.]
Sheng Yan: "..."
What kind of fated, ill-fated relationship did he have with Qin Zigui?
Regardless of any ill-fated relationship between him and Qin Zigui, the teachers of the entire second year of high school were pleasantly surprised to find that since that troublemaker from Class 6 was moved to Class 1, he no longer played games in class, no longer skipped evening self-study sessions, and teachers from nearby schools stopped complaining about who had been beaten. Even the teachers in the infirmary hadn't seen that pampered young master who used to come to them for medicine every few days because of diarrhea for a long time.
Huang Shuliang was very pleased with this.
He hadn't yelled at Sheng Yan for several days, which was unprecedented in his teaching career.
It seems Qin Zigui was right. When dealing with struggling students, we shouldn't just criticize and educate them. We should learn to praise and appreciate them in order to motivate them to improve.
Therefore, when Sheng Yan suddenly had a stomachache on Saturday afternoon and asked to stay home, and the top three students in the grade offered to go to Sheng Yan's house for special tutoring during evening self-study, Huang Shuliang readily agreed to write a leave slip.
He patted them on the shoulder with great satisfaction: "That's great. This is how students from our school should be. We should not abandon or give up on those who are lagging behind. We should help those who are less fortunate to get rich first and make progress together. Keep it up, you are the hope for the future of our country."
So much so that Lin Qian, one of the nation's future hopes, felt somewhat guilty when she got into the taxi: "Do you really think it's okay for us to deceive the weasel like this?"
"It's the only option we can have. He suddenly said that during the make-up classes, we'd only get one day off on Sunday. We already booked for today, so we can't just not go. A couple's ticket costs 1288 yuan; it would be such a waste not to go." Chen Yubai leaned back in his seat and stretched his legs lazily.
He lacks any of the self-awareness expected of a head of the discipline inspection department.
Sheng Yan leaned lazily against another car window, looking utterly haggard from the ravages of studying, as if he wanted to escape for as long as possible, utterly hopeless.
Lin Qian looked at his expression through the rearview mirror and laughed: "Is it really that bad? You've only been learning for a few days, and you've already become like this?"
Sheng Yan's face was numb and cold: "Right now, when I close my eyes, I'm in the past perfect tense, the present continuous tense, and the future perfect tense. Do you think it's that serious?"
Because Qin Zigui had to go out to attend competition classes every day, Lin Qian also explained a lot of problems to Sheng Yan when he was away. She found that this school bully, who usually seemed arrogant and had a bad temper, actually had a rather cute personality. So, she adopted her usual quiz-like attitude and nodded: "Okay, then give examples to demonstrate the differences between these three."
Sheng Yan remained expressionless and cold: "I killed Qin Zigui in my dream, which is a past perfect tense. I want to kill Qin Zigui now, which is a present continuous tense. I will kill Qin Zigui and bury his body on the spot someday in the future, which is a future perfect tense."
As soon as he finished speaking, the honest and simple driver slipped and almost drove the car straight to the police station.
Lin Qian quickly reassured him, "It's alright, Master. This is just a sign that the two of them have a very good relationship."
The driver chuckled awkwardly, "Haha, you two have a rather unique way of being close."
The other passengers in the car seemed unfazed and didn't react much.
Seeing that Sheng Yan was leaning against the car window with his eyes closed and looking listless, Qin Zigui knew that he must be carsick. He bent down and took something out of his bag and whispered, "Til your head a little."
Sheng Yan turned his head slightly as instructed, revealing the back of his ear. Qin Zigui skillfully applied the motion sickness patch, and Sheng Yan turned his head back.
Then Qin Zigui took an orange out of his bag, peeled it, and said, "Open your mouth."
Sheng Yan, with his eyes closed, said, "Ah."
They finished the orange together without needing to communicate at all.
Chen Yubai sat next to the two people and watched: "..."
For some reason, he suddenly felt that he shouldn't be in the car.
"No, Qin Zigui, you wouldn't happen to be Sheng Yan's child bride, would you? How can you be so skilled?" Chen Yubai knew that Qin Zigui was good to his childhood friend's mother, but he didn't expect her to be this motherly. He casually asked the question.
But the speaker meant no harm, but the listener took it to heart. Sheng Yan, whose fighting spirit had been crushed by a week without spicy food and heavy study load, immediately opened his eyes upon hearing this and retorted with a strong voice: "Who wants him as a child bride? Don't taint our pure friendship with your filthy thoughts."
"?" Chen Yubai suddenly lit a firecracker, feeling a bit confused. "Why are you so agitated? I was just using an analogy to describe how your relationship is exceptionally good."
How is it so good that it's different from others?
Isn't it just ordinary brotherhood?
As a straight man, Sheng Yan had long been troubled by strange dreams about Qin Zigui, and now he couldn't stand these kinds of words the most. He retorted confidently, "Then why didn't you say that you and Qin Zigui were having a secret rendezvous in the student council office?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Zigui asked a question mark before Chen Yubai did, turning his head to look at Chen Yubai.
Chen Yubai hurriedly explained, "It was that time when Lao Huang made us work overnight to compile all the duty records for the semester. We were working overtime in the office, and I posted on my WeChat Moments that we were having a secret rendezvous. What's wrong with that? Wait a minute."
Chen Yubai then realized something and asked, "Why did Sheng Yan see my post on WeChat Moments, but Qin Zigui didn't?"
Qin Zigui made no attempt to hide it: "You post too many selfies, they look so terrible, so I blocked you."
"..." Chen Yubai was severely hurt and reached out to grab Qin Zigui's phone. "Qin Zigui, you're so heartless! Unblock me! Otherwise, I'll jump out of the car right now!"
Qin Zigui wasn't afraid of him jumping off, but he was mainly worried that the driver would suffer an undeserved disaster. So he used one hand to block Chen Yubai and the other hand to open Chen Yubai's profile picture and unblock it.
Then refresh the interface, and your fingertip pauses.
He saw the photo of Chen Yubai's secret rendezvous last Thursday night.
That is, the day before Sheng Yan suddenly made a wish [hoping that Qin Zigui could discover as soon as possible that Chen Yubai is not as good-looking as me].
It was also the day before she confessed to Sheng Yan that she liked boys.
so……
Is it just a coincidence?
Qin Zigui held his phone, paused slightly, and then turned his head to look at Sheng Yan.
Before she knew it, Chen Yubai had come up to her.
Sheng Yan watched as Chen Yubai's hand hooked around Qin Zigui's shoulder, his face cold as he turned his head away.
Qin Zigui chuckled as if he had confirmed something, then disgustedly shoved Chen Yubai's hands away: "Get off me, stop putting your arms around each other."
Chen Yubai retorted, "Then how come Sheng Yan can put his arm around you every day?"
"Can you compare to him?"
Qin Zigui's seemingly casual reply was actually a way of telling Sheng Yan that he was a million times more special than Chen Yubai.
But Sheng Yan felt a sudden, inexplicable surge of anger.
Sure enough, he could put his arm around Chen Yubai's shoulder because they were just brothers, but Chen Yubai was someone he liked, so he couldn't.
What a hypocrite!
Tsk, what a hypocrite.
Chen Yubai also gave Qin Zigui a disdainful look.
It's no secret that this person is a bit of a germaphobe and doesn't like others touching him. However, he wasn't angry when Sheng Yan wiped his hands on his clothes after eating a steamed bun, but he got upset when Sheng Yan just put his arm around his shoulder and said that he wasn't Sheng Yan's child bride.
So the three men in the back seat of the taxi each had their own thoughts: one looked to the left, one looked to the right, and one looked down at his phone.
Lin Qian, who witnessed everything through the rearview mirror from the passenger seat, sent a WeChat message to her best friend with a blank expression.
Lin Qian: [Do you know what happened to me after I asked you guys to come to the amusement park with me, and you said you didn't have time?]
Best friend: [?]
Lin Qian: [Three handsome men with great figures and long legs are walking with me]
Best friend: [What?! Such a good thing?!]
Lin Qian: [Then the three of them were vying for each other's attention.]
Best friend: [...]
Best friend: [Ah, this is fate]
Whether it was fate or not, Lin Qian could tell that Chen Yubai was just an innocent straight man who had been dragged into this mess by them. So as soon as they entered the park, she dragged Chen Yubai to buy water, leaving Qin Zigui and Sheng Yan to queue up at the castle activity area.
Because the school made a last-minute decision not to give Saturdays off during the make-up classes, they missed the daytime sessions and could only enjoy the amusement park's "Summer Delight" special event first.
There are many people who share the same thoughts as them.
However, the target audience for this kind of themed event is women, so apart from couples, most of the participants are two girls. The two tall guys, both over 1.8 meters tall, stand out conspicuously in the crowd.
Of course, the main reason is her height, long legs, and good looks.
Many girls were already looking over here. One of them, wearing a JK uniform, was clearly interested in Qin Zigui's type and blatantly glanced at them several times.
But Qin Zigui wasn't wearing black or white today; he was just wearing a very ordinary lead-gray shirt, yet he made himself look like a male model.
Attracting bees and butterflies.
Sheng Yan looked down and kicked a small pebble at his feet.
Qin Zigui didn't notice any of this. She simply removed the motion sickness patch from behind his ear and asked casually, "Why did you suddenly ask me who was prettier, you or Chen Yubai, that day?"
Sheng Yan felt caught off guard by the question and began to feign ignorance: "Did I ask this question before?"
"Yeah, it was the morning after I told you I liked boys that you woke up and asked me that." Qin Zigui said it very naturally, as if he simply wanted to ask that question.
Sheng Yan felt a little guilty, but he was always confident even when he was in the wrong. He stiffened his neck and pretended to be nonchalant, saying, "I was just asking to test your aesthetic sense, is that not allowed?"
"Okay, sure." Qin Zigui nodded. "The main thing is, didn't you think I liked Chen Yubai? I was wondering if you were jealous."
He spoke seriously but in a joking tone, and Sheng Yan reacted as if his sore spot had been hit, jumping up instantly: "Who's jealous? Can you stop being so self-righteous? I'm perfectly straight!"
Just then, Chen Yubai and Lin Qian returned. Sheng Yan quickly handed two package tickets to the staff and said, "There are four of us, three men and one woman. The men are all over 180cm tall, and the woman is 170cm tall. Please get your uniforms."
His intention to avoid the topic was far too obvious. Standing behind him, Qin Zigui watched as his ears inexplicably turned red, and felt that someone who had never been able to lie since childhood seemed to be trying too hard to cover up the truth.
Even Chen Yubai noticed something was off. He handed over a drink and asked curiously, "What were you guys talking about just now? I feel like the atmosphere is a bit off."
"They didn't say anything." Sheng Yan, who was at the front, turned around impatiently and asked, "They said that for each pair of players, one person needs to play the vampire and the other the vampire hunter. How are you going to divide them up?"
Chen Yubai said very politely, "I'm fine with either, Lin Qian, you can choose first."
Lin Qian, biting her straw, said, "I'll be a vampire hunter, it feels cooler."
Sheng Yan also wanted to choose the vampire hunter because the vampire hunter's equipment includes a gun, but if he chose the vampire hunter, Qin Zigui would have to choose the vampire.
Qin Zigui, a vampire.
grass.
Just as Sheng Yan was about to stop the scene from appearing in his dream, Qin Zigui took the vampire costume from his hand: "I'll play the vampire, it suits me better."
Sheng Yan stood frozen in place.
Qin Zigui lowered his eyes and asked calmly, "Is there a problem?"
"No problem, what problem could I possibly have?" Sheng Yan felt that he couldn't be controlled by a strange dream. He could also use the opportunity to personally hunt vampires to prove that he absolutely had no inappropriate thoughts. So, with a straight face, he picked up the vampire hunter's equipment and walked towards the changing room.
Qin Zigui noticed that he unconsciously touched the area where his left shoulder and neck connected.
That spot was where I was about to bite down that day.
Qin Zigui narrowed his eyes again. He felt that some people were becoming increasingly strange.
Something felt off, so he decided to do something to test the waters.
Thinking it over, Qin Zigui slowly followed and walked into the fitting room next to Sheng Yan.
As Qin Zigui put on the vampire's white shirt and black cloak and straightened his bow tie in front of the mirror, he suddenly remembered that Sheng Yan had once thrown a tantrum because a girl used a photo of him in a white shirt as her profile picture.
He's not allowed to wear white shirts anymore.
They even said he was so handsome it was annoying.
After she bit him that day, Sheng Yan acted strangely the next day. He couldn't stand the word "bite" and wouldn't allow her to wear black.
Moreover, Sheng Yan seems to really like the mole on his neck.
Qin Zigui paused, then untied the bow tie, knocked on the partition of the changing room, and called out, "Sheng Yan."
An impatient voice soon came from next door: "What?"
"My bow tie is loose, I don't know how to tie it, can you come and help me take a look?"
After Qin Zigui finished speaking, he casually unbuttoned a few buttons on his shirt, leaned against the partition, his clothes disheveled, his posture alluring, and just enough to reveal the mole that Sheng Yan most wanted to bite.
Anyway, doing this to a straight man doesn't count as seduction.
