Chapter 22
Lin Yu's mind went blank. After a long while, he grabbed his female colleague and asked her what had happened. His female colleague told him that Yue Qianwen had sent her a screenshot of the post, hoping she would help him. She then came up with a bad idea. Yue Qianwen initially objected, saying he didn't want to use reverse psychology, but somehow, he suddenly agreed the next day.
"You two are singing in unison..." Lin Yu was so angry he had a heart attack.
That's how they led him into the ditch!
That's how he went from straight to gay.
Yue Qianwen had set up a trap beforehand, watching helplessly as he fell into the ditch, and even putting on a pitiful act to make him feel sorry for him.
Yue Qianwen! You scheming man!
Upon seeing this, the female colleague immediately absolved herself of responsibility: "Don't blame me, he was the one who nodded in agreement."
"snort."
"You haven't noticed all this time? No, wait, it's been so long, haven't you even asked him what the guy he was introduced to by online friends looks like?" His female colleague teased. "Aren't you very confident?"
Lin Yu crossed his arms. "That's why I didn't ask, because I'm very confident."
The female colleague smiled and turned around.
Lin Yu grew angrier the more he thought about it, but he didn't immediately send a message to Yue Qianwen to question him.
He wanted Yue Qianwen to suffer a setback as well.
The person is indeed in Yue Qianwen's hands, and it's a done deal that he's been turned gay. He probably can't change back in this lifetime, but he can't let this go unpunished.
He wanted Yue Qianwen to know that he was willing to be turned gay because he liked him, not because he was stupid, and certainly not because Yue Qianwen was trying to be clever.
He first messaged Yue Qianwen: "Send me a picture of the guy I recommended to you last time."
Yue Qianwen quickly replied: 【What's wrong?】
Lin Yu: [I feel bad for letting him snatch it away, I'll introduce him to someone else.]
Yue Qianwen: [To whom should I introduce him?]
Lin Yu: [I made a new friend.]
Yue Qianwen: [Where did you meet?]
Lin Yu: [Online, in the comments section, someone messaged me.]
Yue Qianwen: [There are many bad people online, don't trust them.]
Lin Yu sneered: You think you're a good person?
He said calmly, "Send me that guy's picture first. I'll see if they're a good match. If they are, I can play matchmaker. It's a good thing, why not?"
As expected, there was no further news from Yue Qianwen's side.
Lin Yu persisted: "Send it to me now!"
Yue Qianwen started to play dead.
He was always quick-witted and never flustered, but this was the first time Lin Yu had ever seen him remain silent.
Lin Yu was extremely excited: 【Why didn't you send it to me? Are you keeping it as a keepsake? Do you still like him?】
Lin Yu: [Where did you go? Didn't you even have time to send me a picture?]
Lin Yu: [Hey, hey, hey, where is everyone?]
Lin Yu: [Yue Qianwen, you don't like him, do you?]
Lin Yu: [What are you feeling guilty about?]
Lin Yu: [Where are they? Where are they?]
Yue Qianwen remained silent.
After a barrage of attacks, Lin Yu was thoroughly satisfied. He tossed his phone aside, slumped in his office chair, and grinned foolishly.
It's truly a time when serfs are liberated and can sing songs of liberation!
You're so humble, yet you've met your match.
That afternoon, Lin Yu had just arrived at the underground parking garage and was still trying to recall where he had parked his car that morning when he saw a familiar car slowly driving towards him in the distance.
It's Xiao Pa.
He rolled down the car window and saw Yue Qianwen, whom he hadn't seen for ten days.
"you……"
"Get in the car," Yue Qianwen said.
Lin Yu was still a little confused and slowly walked around to the passenger seat.
As soon as he sat down, before he could even speak, Yue Qianwen leaned over and kissed his lips, his breath carrying the scent of someone who had been traveling. This kiss immediately captivated Lin Yu's mind, and they lingered for a moment before he sat back down.
Lin Yu was at a loss for how to react.
Once the car was on the elevated highway and the speed gradually decreased, Lin Yu stammered, "Weren't you supposed to be back on Thursday?"
"You're asking me, where are they?"
Lin Yu then remembered, and immediately put on his usual airs again, placing his hands on his hips and taking a deep breath, "Why don't you dare reply on WeChat—"
"I was wrong."
"……ah?"
Yue Qianwen's three straightforward words instantly punctured the balloon that had been swelling in Lin Yu's heart.
"Actually, I've been regretting it all along; I shouldn't have lied to you."
"you--"
Yue Qianwen spoke sincerely, leaving Lin Yu speechless.
He turned and glanced at Lin Yu, whose resentment melted away in his gentle gaze.
Can I blame him? It seems I was just too late in realizing this, Lin Yu thought.
Back home, before he could even put his bag down, Lin Yu was pinned against the door and kissed by Yue Qianwen. He wanted to say, "I can cook you porridge," but Yue Qianwen whispered in his ear, "Are you hungry now?"
He was taken aback, understood, and shook his head absently.
The pants were left by the entrance hall, and the person was already lying on the bed. Yue Qianwen took off his shirt, lifted Lin Yu's waist, and pressed him down.
"Wait—wait—"
Yue Qianwen bit his earlobe and said in a seductive voice, "Mumu, don't you want to?"
Lin Yu said blankly, "Think about it."
Before Lin Yu completely lost his senses, a thought suddenly popped into his head: Does this count as turning the tables?
Why does it feel like I'm going to get beaten up no matter whether I win or lose?
He felt frustrated.
That evening, after showering, Yue Qianwen went to make a late-night snack. He snuggled under the covers and sent a private message to Mr. A, asking for advice: "What should I do if my boyfriend is too smart? I can't outsmart him."
Mr. A has not replied.
Half an hour later, after Lin Yu was sitting at the dining table enjoying his meal, he finally received a reply from Mr. A.
Yue Qianwen was looking at his phone across from him. Lin Yu, feeling guilty, turned to the side and casually opened the page.
Affection: [How do you say it?]
Lin Yu: [He's very good at manipulating me; he knows me too well. I can't get angry at him at all. Is this kind of relationship dynamic reasonable? I think I should have my own strategy for dealing with him, instead of being led by the nose by him.]
Affection: [Why "handling"? Don't you like it?]
Lin Yu was taken aback: "No, not exactly."
Affection: [So what kind of relationship do you hope for?]
Lin Yu thought for a moment: "I don't know either. I just feel... I'm transparent to him, but he isn't."
After sending the message, Mr. A did not reply for a long time.
Lin Yu listlessly put down his phone and looked up to see Yue Qianwen staring at him thoughtfully.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yu scratched his face.
“When I went back this time, I stopped by my dad and told him about our situation.”
"Huh?" Lin Yu was stunned. He didn't even realize what "our business" meant.
“I told him that I had found my partner and that I would be settling here in the future. If my partner is willing, I will bring him to the United States to visit everyone in a while.”
Lin Yu was completely stunned.
“My father was also surprised because after I came out to him in high school, I hadn’t told him anything about relationships for so many years. So he always thought my sexual orientation was just something I said in a rebellious way. But in fact, I really hadn’t considered anyone but you. My father thought my statement was to completely sever ties with him, so he waved me out of the house.”
Yue Qianwen grasped Lin Yu's hand, "So now I only have you, baby."
Lin Yu was so moved that his eyes welled up with tears.
After dinner, Yue Qianwen was still cleaning up the kitchen when Yue Qianwen was clinging to him like glue, refusing to let go.
Especially before going to sleep, when Yue Qianwen helped him button up his pajamas and pulled him into his arms, he gently whispered in his ear, "Don't feel burdened, Mu Mu. We're dating. Don't always think about the future. As for the future, it's up to you to choose. I'll accept it."
After hearing this, Lin Yu had no more complaints. He rolled over and lay on Yue Qianwen's chest, cupping his face and offering a kiss.
"Don't say things like that. What are two men being so sentimental about?" Lin Yu patted Yue Qianwen's chest and promised, "If I say I'll be with you for life, I mean it. I won't abandon you."
They made noise until midnight again.
As Lin Yu was feeling drowsy, a thought flashed through his mind: the word "affection" seemed familiar.
The way this person spoke seemed vaguely familiar...
