Chapter 42: Confession
Chapter 42
The Hedonie docked at nine o'clock that evening, and the employees of the Ni Ye Club took a bus back to the hotel.
Wenxi and Yanjue said hello to Yanhesu and then took a car back to the club.
We arrived at the club at 11pm, and we didn't even have time to pack up our things. We immediately started a meeting to summarize the work. Manager Zou was very proud of the success of the anniversary celebration. In fact, the manager's speech also praised everyone for their excellence, which was praised by the big boss.
What workers care most about is performance appraisal and bonus wages. Manager Zou didn't waste any time and notified them that the business trip bonus would be credited to their accounts within three days at the latest. He also gave everyone one day of paid leave as a reward.
Everyone cheered. Fang Qingyang complained, "I was almost killed by exhaustion these past two days. I can finally take a day off." Wen Xi, an expert at slacking off, who had only been dating Yan Jue for the past two days, looked up at the sky and listened silently without saying a word.
It was late, so Wen Xi went back to the rental house, chatted briefly with Yan Jue for a while, and then went to rest. The next day, at eight in the morning, he went out to buy a small cranberry and blueberry cake, rushed to the nursery, and had a good time with Wen Ran, who was waiting anxiously with a big rocket in her arms, until five in the afternoon, when they made up for the time they had missed together.
Wenxi went on a business trip for three days, including training, and successfully found a boyfriend and a lot of research work. Wenxi returned to school and plunged into the ocean of knowledge, wandering in the wonderful world of programming and mechanical drawing.
There were four days left before leaving the country from the day I disembarked. Later on, the time was adjusted to allow for one more day, so I flew directly to Country M early in the morning on the fifth day.
In addition to the AI competition that will be held overseas, Wen Xi is also leading a national competition project, which is currently in the mid-term stage. Wen Xi was able to pay back Wen Guoqing's one million in three years and win a lot of prizes in various competitions. In addition to being young and smart, what is more important is that he can reasonably squeeze time through immersion.
In order not to delay the progress of the project, Wen Xi directly asked the club for a half-month vacation and spent three days efficiently completing the work content for the next week.
In Sui Ning's words, Wen Xi, who was immersed in study, had almost erased his human side. If anyone tried to disturb Wen Xi, they would be in a state of embarrassment, because if you looked at Wen Xi, you would find that he was like a high-precision robot, with light in his eyes, and this light had a name - "Studying, do not disturb."
So when Wen Xi returned to the dormitory at 11 o'clock in the evening humming a little tune symbolizing the completion of the mission, Ning Haoyu breathed a sigh of relief and handed him a box of five bottles of Good Brothers brand Qi and Blood Replenishing Liquid.
"Drink something." Ning Haoyu said in a pleading tone: "I beg you not to learn it, I'm scared."
Wenxi: "What are you afraid of?"
Ning Haoyu counted on his fingers: "Do you know how long you studied in three days? You studied 50 hours in 72 hours, and including eating, sleeping and other miscellaneous things, it only takes seven hours a day. You make me anxious. No, I will rush you to finish the work. Although my GPA is 0.5 lower than yours, it is barely enough."
"No, I'm done." Wen Xi blinked, his tone a little proud, biting the blood and qi replenisher and tasting the orange flavor: "I didn't even count the time, I forgot about it when I started learning. Actually, it's not bad, I can sleep more than five hours a day, which is enough. And although I stay in the laboratory, I'm not always busy, I also have a combination of work and rest."
"……for example?"
“Eating is a kind of rest.”
"..." Chen Qiao popped his head out and touched his forehead. "It's over, it's over. You've become stupid. Listen to yourself. Are you saying words that a human being can say?"
Well, I also video-called Yanjue while eating, we talked and kept each other company, and then I kept busy with my own things while the video was on until my phone ran out of battery or Yanjue had to go to a meeting.
His roommates all treated him like a younger brother. Wen Xi knew that Ning Haoyu and Chen Qiao rolled their eyes because they cared about him, so he said, "I'll take a day off tomorrow and sleep in to have a good rest."
"What time do you mean by sleeping in?"
Wen Xi raised her finger in front of the two of them: "The work is done, so I decided to sleep until eight o'clock!"
"...Wow." Chen Qiao had a blank expression on his face and imitated his tone, "I slept until eight o'clock. It was so late. I was scared to death."
“…”
Under the menacing gazes of his roommates, Wen Xi obediently opened another blood and qi supplement: "I will finish it before going to bed."
Ning Haoyu sneered: "You'd better be."
Perhaps it was because of the powerful effect of the Good Brothers brand Qi and Blood Replenishing Liquid that Wen Xi slept until ten o'clock in the afternoon.
When I woke up and opened the curtain, I saw Yan and Su playing games in the room.
Wen Xi climbed out of bed: "Why are you in the dormitory? You're going abroad tomorrow. Aren't you going on a date with your girlfriend today?"
Yan and Su lost a round, and Shuai looked a little annoyed: "It's a split."
"Why are you unhappy this time?" Wen Xi looked at him curiously. It had always been Young Master Yan who had to say goodbye to others, but now it looked like he was dumped.
Yan Hesu said coldly: "She treats me as a substitute."
It turns out that wealthy families really would stage a melodramatic stand-in plot. Wen Xi was amazed. He never thought that there was really someone who could discipline Young Master Yan.
"Wow."
Yan and Su obviously didn't want to talk, so they changed the subject: "Ning Haoyu said you guys are going to see Ranran this afternoon?"
Wenxi cooperated and made an invitation: "Would you like to join us? Ranran hasn't seen you for a while and missed you a lot. I made woolen flowers for you both."
"OK."
*
Wen Xi often played with Ran Ran in the entire dormitory. Wen Ran entered the nursery when she was a little over two years old. She had only come into contact with four people in the outside world, including Wen Xi. They were so familiar with each other.
Chen Qiao was the leader of the children again. The rocket models brought by Yan and Su were taken apart and then closed again. The four of them made a lot of noise with Wen Ran for the whole afternoon, and the little girl was so tired that she fell asleep.
After leaving the kindergarten, the four of them went to a Huaiyang restaurant for dinner, as a practice dinner for Wenxi, Yan, and Su before they left for the next day. At about 7:30, after eating and drinking, they sat down to chat and digest their food.
Yan and Su went to the bathroom. Chen Qiaoning Haoyu was planning the arrangements for the postgraduate entrance examination during the summer vacation. Wen Xi's cell phone vibrated in his pocket. He took it out and saw that it was Yan Jue who sent him a message.
The two have not met since they got off the Hedonie. They are both very busy, one studying and the other working, and they usually chat by video chatting during lunch break.
[Y.]:【Video】
Wen Xi glanced at the two people opposite him, muted his phone, and clicked on the video. In fact, it was only three seconds long. Yan Jue did not show his face, only one hand, and the cat king Pearl was biting the back of Yan Jue's hand, with his ears standing up, looking very fierce.
[Stream Becomes the Sea]: How can I bite you? Are you being mean to us Pearls?
The banquet will be answered in seconds.
[Y.]: He stole 23 cat food strips and 8 small dried fishes, and would bite people if he was not allowed to have dinner.
Wow.
What a super greedy cat.
[溪流成海]: The cat king is so powerful, I admire him [抱拳][抱拳][抱拳]
Wen Xi watched the video again and confirmed that the reason why Pearl was more majestic than the average Maine Coon was that she was bigger because of stealing food. This time, his attention was drawn to Yan Jue's hand with bulging veins. The back of his hand was white, and the base of his little finger was firmly bitten by Pearl, with the finger slightly hooked, looking indulgent and doting.
However, a super greedy cat can bite through cat strips and can bite people very fiercely.
[Stream Becomes the Sea]: Is your hand okay?
[Y.]: Kind of—
Yan Jue just sent these two words and then the conversation was disconnected. The "the other party is typing" sign on the chat box flashed a few times and then disappeared.
[The stream becomes the sea]:?
[Y.]:【Picture】
Wen Xi clicked on it and saw that it was a photo of Yan Jue's back of his hand. The back of his hand was a little red, and there were a few shallow teeth marks that were almost invisible if you didn't look carefully.
[Y.]: A little red.
[Stream Becomes the Sea]: I was worried that Pearl would bite you and make you bleed.
[Stream Becomes the Sea]: If you had taken the photo one minute later, there wouldn’t even be any red marks.
[The stream becomes the sea]: [Rose]
[Y.]: It won’t leave any marks.
Why did he have a bad feeling? Wen Xi stared at the words "The other party is typing..." in the chat box and his eyelids twitched.
After waiting for two seconds, Yan Jue sent a message.
[Y.]: After all, kittens don’t bite as hard as puppies.
[The stream becomes the sea]: !!!
This bite and that bite are the same thing, it's really annoying!
Wen Xi's heart was pounding. He hung up his phone and hurriedly poured himself a glass of ice water, wanting to drink it to calm the heat on his face.
Just as the water reached his mouth, Chen Qiao, who seemed to be playing with his phone, suddenly said, "Wenxi, there's something wrong with you."
Wenxi choked. At this moment, Yanhesu came back and handed Wenxi a tissue: "What's wrong?"
"I've been observing you for a while. This is the first time I see you chatting so happily with someone. There is definitely something wrong with the person on the other side." Chen Qiao said in a firm tone. Wen Xi was frightened when he heard it. Chen Qiao was chatting with Ning Haoyu, so how could he still notice him?
Was it so obvious that he was happy when he was chatting with Yan Jue?
Wen Xi glanced at Yan and Su beside him, drank the ice water in one gulp, and regained a lot of rationality, and his mind was working rapidly.
"Aren't you in a relationship?" Ning Haoyu asked directly.
Wen Xi clenched his fists and blinked: "No. The one chatting with me is just a good brother."
"It's my brother," Chen Qiao said in disbelief, "You're blushing like a bubble teapot."
Yan Hesu suddenly said, "A good brother? You talked on the balcony for more than half an hour before my birthday. Was it also with this brother?"
Wen Xi was shocked that Yan and Su still remembered something that happened after such a long time.
The roommate looked curious and wanted to look into Wenxi's phone to see who was on the other end.
Wen Xi looked at Yan Hesu's face, which was somewhat similar to Yan Jue's, and snapped her fingers a little awkwardly.
Wen Xi's behavior was too obvious, and it directly confirmed that "I am in a relationship."
“Who is it?
"Do we know each other?"
Wen Xi actually wanted to hide it for a while. He didn't really want his roommates to know that he was in a relationship. But he didn't expect that he couldn't hide it at all. It was exposed when they were together.
But on second thought, besides the embarrassment of Yan Jue's identity, he must not tell anyone. Telling his roommate that he has a girlfriend is much better than hiding it. Once it is made public, some actions in the future will be much easier.
My roommate's eyes were burning.
Wen Xi looked at everyone's curious eyes, especially Yan and Su's stunned expressions. He took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to confess to his roommates that he was in a relationship.
"I'm in love. You guys... don't know him. I was just chatting with him."
"Fuck!" Ning Haoyu was shocked. "You spend every day either studying or working. I'm afraid you'll die suddenly. How do you have time for a relationship?"
That's a good question.
"I encountered it when I was working part-time." Wen Xi was vague.
Chen Qiao took a breath and said, "Who will chase who if they fall in love at first sight?"
"Ah, it was love at first sight." As for who pursued whom, Wen Xi thought about it and decided that it should be considered a mutual pursuit. He took the initiative in the early stage and then became extremely clingy afterwards. "If it can be considered a confession, I took the initiative."
"Oh my god." Chen Qiao sighed, "What on earth does she look like? She has obsessed you so much that you don't even have time to sleep, and yet you still have time to fall in love."
Wen Xi blushed at these words and wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
“Ding-ling-ling——”
Wenxi's phone beeped several times with WeChat messages.
While nervously and hurriedly pressing the phone, Wen Xi accidentally turned on the volume button.
Since everyone knew that she had a partner, Wen Xi simply stood up and said, "We just confirmed our relationship. I wanted to wait for a while to stabilize the relationship before telling you about this. But now that you know, I won't go back to school with you."
"Then you are——"
Wenxi put on her backpack and said, "I'm going on a date. See you at bedtime."
Yan Hesu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked, "Who is your partner, male or female?"
In today's society, homosexuals have been able to get married a long time ago, and Yan and Su will sooner or later know that he is in love with Yan Jue, so it is good to take precautions now.
Wen Xi blinked at him: "Guess what?"
Wen Xi ran away seemingly with brisk steps but in fact he was in a panic, leaving the remaining three people looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Is it a man or a woman?"
Chen Qiao was just playing with his phone while observing Wen Xi. His phone screen was set to always stay on, so when he lowered his head he saw Wen Xi's chat box in the list.
While he was in a daze, Chen Qiao suddenly discovered that Wen Xi's WeChat profile picture had changed.
Wenxi’s WeChat avatar is a simple sketch he drew himself. Originally there was a lively little fish in the stream, but now there are two.
Chen Qiao closed his eyes: "Male."
Ning Haoyu: "How did you know?"
Chen Qiao enlarged Wen Xi's portrait and handed it to the two of them.
"Wenxi, the original avatar only had one fat fish with a small red mouth and no eyes. Now there are two, and the big fat fish has black eyes, so it must be a boy."
"Wenwen is gay." Ning Haoyu: "I wonder why he keeps it a secret."
The sudden realization that Wen Xi was in a relationship with a boy was a big shock to the three of them, and they didn't recover until they got in the car.
"But..." Ning Haoyu asked Yan Hesu: "You are always with Wen Wenguaibao, don't you feel that your sexual orientation is different?"
Yan Hesu's heart beat fast when he heard Ning Haoyu ask this: "Why should I feel this kind of thing? Besides, Wen Xi was still a minor a month ago."
"Yes, sexual orientation is usually innate."
Yan and Su saw Chen Qiao with his chin resting on Ning Haoyu's shoulder in the rearview mirror.
Mixed feelings.
Yan Hesu had no opinion on Wen Xi's sexual orientation, but after confirming that he was indeed gay, Yan Hesu couldn't help but fall into self-doubt.
He wondered expressionlessly whether he was the last straight man in Yunjia University, or whether he was born with a special magnetic field and all the people he knew were homosexuals.
There are three classmates in a competition team. The female senior is pretending to be a lesbian, the gay brother is having an online romance with his roommate, and the two roommates in the back seat of the car are showing signs of internal separation.
His eyes glanced at the red color on the car interior, and a flash of inspiration crossed his mind.
oh.
Not all the people he knows are gay. His uncle is a straight man.
Yan and Su breathed a sigh of relief for some reason.
"Then according to the current situation, Wenxi fell in love with someone at first sight when she just came of age, and was abducted by a man we don't know."
"No, my juicy little cabbage was stolen by an unknown man."
The two people in the back row looked heartbroken, as if they were an old father whose daughter was kidnapped by a yellow-haired man.
Yan and Su started the car, thought for a moment, and made a comment about Wen Xi's mysterious boyfriend.
"What a beast."
