Su Nan paused for a moment as he scrolled through Weibo. He spoke without any emotion, not giving a direct answer, "I think the way things are now is pretty good."
Ji Mubai snorted and tugged at Su Nan's hair in a somewhat petty manner, "What's good about it?"
Su Nan remained calm, "Anywhere is fine."
Ji Mubai couldn't laugh anymore. He turned Su Nan's chin, looked into his eyes, and asked him seriously, "Why don't you want to?"
Su Nan's eyes evaded, "Isn't it good to be a sex partner? When you're happy, you're together, and when you're unhappy, you're apart. You don't have to take responsibility, and you don't have to worry about cheating."
"Are you afraid that I'll cheat?" Ji Mubai laughed again, "Don't worry, I will never betray you."
Sunan chuckled and shook his head, "I'm not worried about you, I'm worried about myself."
After all, this is in my genes, Su Nan thought self-deprecatingly.
Ji Mubai felt that his heart must be being pulled by something, otherwise why would it feel so aching, and why did he find it so difficult to breathe.
His expression turned cold, and he squeezed out a voice from between his teeth, "You don't like me at all?"
Su Nan's hands tightly grasped his thighs under the quilt, without saying a word.
Suddenly, Ji Mubai threw back the quilt and got out of bed. He picked up the clothes thrown on the ground and put them on quickly. Su Nan looked at him intently.
Ji Mubai turned around, and Su Nan suddenly became nervous. He asked loudly, "What are you doing?"
Ji Mubai stood still, turned around and gave Su Nan an indifferent smile, but his words were piercing, "Do you know what a sex buddy is? Shouldn't a sex buddy just go away after having sex?"
“…”
Ji Mubai wanted to say something else, but seeing Su Nan's panicked and embarrassed expression, he didn't say anything. He looked at Su Nan, hoping that Su Nan could keep him.
Su Nan opened his mouth, pinched his thigh until it was blue, and tried his best to steady his voice, "Drive carefully."
Ji Mubai smiled silently, completely disappointed. Of course, who would want to keep someone they don't like?
At three o'clock in the middle of the night, Ji Mubai left and the door was closed gently. Su Nan moved himself to where Ji Mubai had been lying.

Sunan stayed in the rental house for two days and returned home on the morning of New Year's Eve. In fact, it was not really a home because there was neither a father nor a mother in this home.
So where did Sunan's parents go? Actually, they didn't go anywhere, they just became someone else's father and mother.
Sunan's parents divorced when he was very young. Both husband and wife had affairs, and Sunan was awarded to his father. However, he moved out to live on his own when he just turned eighteen.
But if you ask whether Su's father and mother love Su Nan, they probably do. After all, they are very generous to Su Nan and have never let Su Nan lack anything materially.
For the New Year's Eve dinner, Sunan had it in a restaurant with his parents. Because they were arguing with each other, both wanted Sunan to spend the New Year at their home. After arguing for half a month, they finally decided to just eat together in the restaurant, and no one gave in to the other.
Also present were Sunan's third stepmother and second stepfather, as well as several younger brothers and sisters, both known and unknown to him.
Sunan has never understood why his parents like to cheat so much, but are so obsessed with getting married.
Or why they are so keen on getting married, but so persistent in insisting on cheating.
It is not enough to have one term, there must be a second and a third term.
Very contradictory and unsolvable.
Sunan felt that they must be sick and attributed their behavior to bad genes, and that he also carried something disgusting that was incurable.
Unsurprisingly, the New Year's Eve dinner was a disaster. Whenever Mr. and Mrs. Su got together, they always had a quarrel. Even after being divorced for more than ten years, they were still arguing about who cheated first, as if the one who cheated later had the right to do so.
Sunan was no longer surprised by these scenes. Before the divorce, there was chaos at home every day. He ate his fill, then took a taxi and returned to his home, a cold house with nothing in it.
Curled up in bed, Sunan looked through his WeChat messages. He received many New Year greetings from friends, classmates, relatives, and colleagues.
There is no Ji Mubai.
Ji Mubai hasn't sent him any messages for two days. It seems that he has really fulfilled his wish and stopped harassing him, but he doesn't seem happy at all.
Su Nan sniffed and continued to browse his Moments.
The circle of friends is very lively. Everyone is excitedly celebrating the New Year and posting pictures of their families gathering together and the rich and delicious New Year’s Eve dinner.
Su Nan flipped through his Moments expressionlessly and saw the posts by Ji Mubai, Gu Lingfeng, and Zhao Si. He wanted to post something too, but he had nothing.
It's okay, I'll be fine once I fall asleep. Dreams can have all sorts of things. Su Nan gave Zhao Si a thumbs up, threw down his phone, and buried himself in the quilt.
