[Someone, with red eyes, pinned another person against the wall, gripping their waist. Looking down at their smooth, white neck, their fingertips gently caressed the slight bulge. In a hoarse voice, they said, "You're an adult now, you can be fully marked, so I'm giving you this as a gift, okay?" Before the other person could refuse, they ripped open their collar and bit down hard…]
Sheng Yan dared not read the following descriptions in detail, because they were very unhealthy.
Moreover, it was in traditional Chinese characters, so he couldn't see it very clearly. Anyway, he knew that so-and-so was a scoundrel, kissing, biting, and doing *that*, and was especially fierce. So-and-so, who was supposed to be the school bully, actually made him cry.
The key question is, how could she still lift him up and do *that*? At that frequency, wouldn't her back break? Are her arms made of iron? Is this person even human?
After estimating Qin Zigui's height and weight, Shiwai's top fighter realized for the first time that he lacked confidence and doubt in his own physical fitness and abilities.
He felt that he should run before he grew to 1.9 meters tall, but Qin Zigui grabbed him and pressed him onto his lap.
Unable to run away, yet unwilling to admit defeat, Sheng Yan could only bite the bullet and take the initiative, fiercely accusing, "You're almost a senior in high school, and all you do is study all day long. What kind of rubbish are you reading? How can you live up to the expectations and cultivation of your teachers and parents?"
When he secretly read this book on his phone this morning, the character so-and-so was a gentle, aloof, and kind man. How did he become like this here?!
And Lin Qian, such a pretty girl, how come she's secretly reading this kind of book during class?!
How did this book end up in Qin Zigui's hands? And why is he reading it with such relish?!
Sheng Yan felt that he was the only clean person left in the whole world.
Meanwhile, the incredibly filthy Qin Zi continued flipping through the book slowly and deliberately: "Anyway, I can get full marks in all the subjects I'm supposed to get, so there's nothing else to learn for now. I might as well learn how to be a good boyfriend so I can win you over sooner."
"..."
Sheng Yan, who was tormented by studying every day, suddenly felt like hitting someone.
He gritted his teeth: "Qin Zigui, do you want to get beaten up?"
Qin Zigui continued looking at the reference book in his hand, learning how to turn a childhood sweetheart into a wife. Hearing Sheng Yan's angry voice, she chuckled: "Didn't you say you would give me any gift I wanted, as long as it's not illegal or criminal? Are you going to go back on your word?"
Sheng Yan was always a man of his word. Due to his pride as a man, he couldn't go back on his word, so he could only grit his teeth and find a loophole: "Doing this kind of thing without the other party's consent is illegal!"
Qin Zigui, as always, was understanding: "Hmm, it's okay, I'll agree."
"I mean I disagree!" Sheng Yan had never realized Qin Zigui was so shameless before. He kicked him, rolled off him, wrapped himself in the blanket, and rolled to the corner of the bed, covering himself up completely except for his head. He looked at Qin Zigui warily and said, "Don't forget, I haven't agreed to be with you yet, so we're not in that kind of improper male-male relationship right now. Stop thinking about those dirty things all day long. Before I've really thought it through, we need to keep a safe distance."
"Well, the way to maintain a safe distance is for you to shower in my bathroom and then wrap yourself in my blanket and lie down on my bed." Qin Zigui calmly turned another page.
Sheng Yan: "..."
grass.
Was that what he wanted?
That's because his mother blew up the kitchen first to renovate the house, and then Jiang Ping's nephew suddenly moved in. Otherwise, would he have suffered such humiliation?
Sheng Yan angrily stuck one foot out from under the covers and drew a line between himself and Qin Zigui, saying fiercely, "The 38th parallel, whoever crosses it first is a dog!"
After saying that, he turned around, his back to Qin Zigui, and shrank into the corner of the bed.
Finally, feeling that it wasn't enough to express his firm determination, he turned around and added, "Also, I'll be training on your birthday, so I probably won't be able to get leave or come back. So you can spend your birthday with Chen Yubai and Yu Chen."
After saying that, she turned around and pulled the covers over her head.
Qin Zigui watched his retreating figure, slightly raising an eyebrow. Why did he suddenly bring up Yu Chen out of the blue?
He probably didn't exchange more than five sentences with Yu Chen in a whole semester.
Thinking back to Sheng Yan's sudden mention of giving her a gift, Qin Zigui opened Chen Yubai's WeChat: [What did you talk to Sheng Yan about this time?]
[Yu Bai Fei Bai]: I didn't say anything to Sheng Yan.
[Q]: Confess honestly, and you might still have a chance to live.
[Yu Bai Fei Bai]: ...
[Yu Bai Fei Bai]: I knew Sheng Yan couldn't beat you.
[Yu Bai Fei Bai]: Despicable
[Yu Bai Fei Bai]: Never mind, see for yourself.
[Yu Bai Fei Bai]: Sharing group chat history
Qin Zigui swiped his finger across the screen, looking through it page by page. Then, as he read on, he understood and smiled silently to himself.
Small vinegar packet.
Then she sent a message to Chen Yubai: [No need for all this, I'm spending my birthday at home with Sheng Yan]
[Yu Bai Fei Bai]: ?
[Yu Bai Fei Bai]: Can't you also be with Sheng Yan if you come out?
[Yu Bai Fei Bai]: Hey, wait a minute, isn't Sheng Yan going to have intensive training? He can't spend time with you, so why don't you come out and spend time with us?
[Q]: Why do you care so much?
[Yu Bai Fei Bai]: ...
[Yu Bai Fei Bai]: Fine, whatever you say.
[Yu Bai Fei Bai]: But you still have to come to the party on the 30th, right? Gou You and the others are planning to invite a few more friends to give Sheng Yan a send-off and celebrate his victory in advance.
Qin Zigui doesn't like crowds, but Sheng Yan does. If he doesn't go, Sheng Yan will definitely miss him. Besides, if he doesn't go, who knows if someone will secretly confess their feelings to Sheng Yan while they're drunk.
So Qin Zigui replied: [Okay, sure]
After replying, my hand drooped down and touched something furry. Looking down, I saw it was Sheng Yan's adorable head.
This person is really carefree; they can fall asleep anytime they want, and even when they're asleep, they like to grab random things to hug.
Seeing that Sheng Yan had crossed the 38th parallel and was sleeping peacefully against him, as if he were having a good dream, Qin Zigui couldn't help but run his fingers into the light-colored soft hair of Sheng Yan's head and rub it.
A clingy little dog.
Because Sheng Yan was about to go to a training camp for the entire summer vacation and wouldn't have time to cram at home, Qin Zigui stopped arguing with him. Instead, he quickly compiled some things that only required rote memorization into a booklet so that Sheng Yan could take it to the training camp and review it at night.
When the two of them got up for school every morning, Jiang Fei in the opposite room had just fallen asleep. When they came back at night, Jiang Fei had already gone out clubbing again. In addition, Jiang Ping had been exceptionally busy lately, so it seemed like only Qin Zigui and Sheng Yan were in the house, along with Qin Ru, who often stayed in the living room late at night eating spicy late-night snacks.
Sheng Yan also craved snacks, but in order to grow to 1.9 meters tall as soon as possible, he stubbornly resisted his bad habit of eating snacks and ate eggs and milk for three meals a day without fail.
On the day summer vacation started, when they went back to their grandparents' house across the river to pick up Cuckoo, the old couple couldn't help but pinch his cheek as soon as they saw him, and said happily, "Hey, Yan Yan's face has gotten a little chubby. He used to be as skinny as a monkey."
"How come I look like a monkey? I've always been handsome, okay?"
Sheng Yan stroked Cuckoo, who had almost turned into an orange pig from being fed by the old couple, and muttered a dissatisfied remark.
It wasn't as exaggerated as the old couple said. However, because he hadn't eaten any spicy or irritating foods recently and had been eating and drinking milk properly, he hadn't had diarrhea for a long time, and Sheng Yan had gained three pounds compared to before.
For Sheng Yan, who was born prematurely and had always been in poor health, and who, despite being raised to be 1.8 meters tall, never weighed more than 130 pounds, this was a qualitative leap.
The elderly couple were overjoyed and hurriedly prepared to cook dinner, hoping to fatten Sheng Yan up a bit more.
Qin Zigui stopped them, saying, "Grandma, Grandpa, you don't need to bother. Ayan and I have a gathering tonight, so we're just going home to drop off something and then we'll leave."
"Oh, okay, sure, no problem." Grandma Sheng Yan was initially worried about letting Sheng Yan attend a party so late at night, but when she heard that Qin Zigui was also going, she felt reassured. "Should we leave the door open for you tonight?"
"I might be back a little late tonight, so Grandma and you should go to bed early and just don't lock the door."
Qin Zigui listened patiently to the old man's rambling instructions, and then answered and explained them in detail one by one.
Meanwhile, Sheng Yan was rummaging through drawers and cabinets in his room, making a racket as if he were about to tear the house apart.
Grandma Sheng Yan finally couldn't take it anymore and rushed to the door, exclaiming, "Oh dear, what are you trying to do?"
Sheng Yancai looked up from the mess and asked, "Grandma, where's the amulet my dad left me?"
When Sheng Yan was still in Xu Qingrong's belly, his father received that important mission and knew that he would not be able to be by his wife's side to welcome the new life. So he made the empty bullet casing from the first time he hit an enemy into a necklace and left it to Ms. Xu, saying that it would bless them and their child to be safe and sound.
Even after hearing the devastating news of his sacrifice, Ms. Xu was so shocked that she went into premature labor, and the process was very difficult, but both mother and child survived safely.
Ms. Xu told him that it was her father protecting them.
So, from a young age, Sheng Yan treasured that empty bullet casing like a precious gem, secretly holding it and whispering secrets to it every night. Later, as he grew older, he wore it on his body as an accessory.
However, because this thing could easily cause misunderstandings and unnecessary worries for others, Sheng Yan put it in the safest place in his treasure chest. But now he can't even find the whole treasure chest. Sheng Yan feels like his entire hometown has been raided.
Seeing his anxious expression, Grandma Shengyan quickly said, "Oh dear, stop destroying the house! There was a burglary in the neighborhood a while ago, and I saw that you treasured that box of your things. I was afraid you would make a fuss if it got stolen, so I put it away for you. Come with me."
Then he led Sheng Yan to his room, opened the wardrobe, revealing the bottom safe. In front of Sheng Yan and Qin Zigui, while entering the password, he instructed, "Zigui, Xiao Yan, remember this: the password is my and your grandfather's wedding anniversary. This contains almost all of our life's savings. If your grandfather and I pass away, everything in here will belong to Xiao Yan. Zigui, you keep an eye on things for him and make sure no one tricks him out of it, understand?"
"Oh dear, Grandma, what are you saying?" Sheng Yan couldn't stand hearing such words and became anxious as soon as he heard them.
Grandma Sheng Yan laughed and said, "Alright, alright, I won't say anymore. Here, your darling."
As she spoke, she took out a large, obviously old candy jar from the safe and handed it to Sheng Yan: "Take a look, is anything missing?"
Sheng Yan wanted to open it.
But halfway through the drive, he remembered something and glared at Qin Zigui.
Qin Zigui looked back at him, puzzled.
He said irritably, "I'm taking stock of my belongings. Is it appropriate for you to be here?"
"?" Qin Zigui never expected this to happen.
What kind of wealth could Sheng Yan, this naive and innocent guy, possibly have? Would I even care about his few candies or Yu-Gi-Oh! cards?
However, seeing Sheng Yan's wary expression, Qin Zigui smiled and said, "Alright, our young master Sheng should take stock of his possessions."
As she spoke, she reached out to turn over Sheng Yan's disheveled shirt collar.
Sheng Yan was afraid that his grandmother would notice something, so he quickly stepped back.
Qin Zigui's hand missed its target, but he quickly withdrew it, smiled nonchalantly, and went out to scoop up the poop for the little cuckoo that Sheng Yan had been tugging at.
Grandma glanced at Qin Zigui's departing figure before looking away.
Sheng Yan carefully took the bullet casing necklace out of the treasure box, locked the treasure box back in the safe, and handed the necklace to his grandmother: "Grandma, please put it on for me. I'm going to participate in the trial training tomorrow afternoon. If I pass the trial training, I can officially rejoin the team and have a chance to go to police academy and become a policeman like my dad. So I hope my dad can bless me."
Grandma took the necklace and sighed softly: "You not only look like your father, but you also have the same personality. I never thought you would even want to do the same things. Maybe this is fate."
"So my dad's grades weren't good either?"
"Your dad had excellent grades, but he was a troublemaker. He used to get into fights all the time and was punished every day. It wasn't until he secretly started dating your mom that she stopped him from fighting."
"My mom never told me they were dating in school." Sheng Yan didn't expect to hear such gossip.
Grandma Sheng Yan also laughed and said, "Do you think she would tell you about this? She still thinks I don't know about their secret puppy love when they were in school. But as parents, we watched them grow up, what can't we see? We just want the kids to be happy, nothing else is that important."
The old man's hands were somewhat withered, yet they remained so steady and reassuring, just like when he was a child.
After putting the necklace on Sheng Yan, she turned out his shirt collar, which had sunk in, and said, "So, Yan Yan, whether you want to be a policeman or do something else, as long as it's something you truly like and it makes you happy, just do it. Grandma will always support you, understand?"
Sheng Yan lowered his head, grasped the empty bullet casing in front of him, pursed his lips, and gave a muffled "hmm".
