Chapter 220.1

Editor: Princess

Hearing this, Cheng Yu stopped what he was doing immediately and asked him, “Am I disturbing you?”

“What else?” Lin An Lan was angry inside, and so no longer spoke to him with his usual gentleness. “Those who know would say you’re playing a game, but those who don’t might think you’re livestreaming! Go back to your room to play!”

Cheng Yu immediately lowered his voice, “One last round. I’ll stop playing after I finish this one.”

Xu Zhe who was listening on the other side reminded him, “Bro, right now you should go along with what he said and go back to your room, not stop playing. This way he won’t know that you care about him. How can you test anything? You need to let him know that you’ll leave him, give him a sense of crisis.”

Cheng Yu felt that he was quite meddlesome.

He lowered his head and sent a text message to Xu Zhe: [I’m testing him, not torturing myself. Going back to my room to play games with you, am I really here to be your gaming companion?]

Xu Zhe: … Just leaving for two minutes counts as torturing yourself?! And with this attitude, you still want to test him?! You’re simply too disappointing!

Xu Zhe: [It’s just half an hour, just half an hour. How does half an hour count as torturing yourself?]

Cheng Yu: [Half an hour!!! 30 minutes!!! 1800 seconds!!! I can’t do it! This is simply self-harm!]

Xu Zhe: …

Xu Zhe felt that he had really learned something today. Was this what gay love was like? Something that a straight guy like him can’t understand!

He speechlessly finished the remaining half round with him then logged off obediently.

Cheng Yu took off his headphones, exited the game, and said obediently, “I won’t play anymore.”

Only then did Lin An Lan calm down and lower his head to read his book.

But before long, he heard Xu Zhe’s voice coming from Cheng Yu’s phone again, “Big brother, how do you solve this problem? Please teach me. My brother said you have really good grades.”

Lin An Lan: …

Lin An Lan looked at the book pages in front of him, and the irritation in his heart surged up again.

Cheng Yu lowered his voice and explained a problem to him. The other side quickly made a video call. Xu Zhe’s voice was as energetic as always, “What do you mean? I don’t understand. Big brother, explain it to me again.”

Cheng Yu had to explain it to him again. Xu Zhe looked innocent, “Wait, how did these two end up with the same area? Was something skipped in the middle? Big brother, explain it more carefully.”

Cheng Yu: …

Lin An Lan looked up at him, “Give me the phone.”

Cheng Yu didn’t understand why, but still handed it over obediently.

Lin An Lan looked at the problem he had sent and began analyzing it for Xu Zhe. His experience in explaining problems was much richer than Cheng Yu’s. It was practically hand-holding instruction. Xu Zhe was too embarrassed to continue pretending he didn’t understand, so he said in a coquettish manner, “Thank you, Brother Lin, but can you give the phone back to Brother Cheng?”

He smiled somewhat shyly, “I still prefer talking to Brother Cheng. Brother Lin, you explain very well too, but I still prefer Brother Cheng’s way of explaining problems.”

Hearing these words, Lin An Lan looked at his slightly shy expression in the video and felt that what he liked probably wasn’t Cheng Yu’s way of explaining problems, but Cheng Yu, the person himself.

Thanks to Cheng Yu, Lin An Lan now had some excessive sensitivity to feelings between boys. He tried putting himself in Xu Zhe’s shoes: having failed at the start and been cheated out of a lot of money, then meeting someone like Cheng Yu who could play games with him, wouldn’t cheat his money, and would even coax him by calling him “little brother” one after another. Compared to himself, who wasn’t familiar with him, wouldn’t he naturally like Cheng Yu much more?

What’s more, Cheng Yu had that face. Whether from a male aesthetic perspective or female aesthetic perspective, he was a top-tier handsome guy, most suitable for adolescent boys and girls with budding thoughts.

Lin An Lan had never been the type to stick his warm face to someone’s cold butt. He had volunteered to explain the problem to Xu Zhe because he was annoyed by Cheng Yu constantly talking to Xu Zhe. Now that the person had made it clear he wanted Cheng Yu, he wouldn’t be so eager to please.

Standing up, he handed the phone back to Cheng Yu, “I’m going to take a shower.”

“I’ll go too.” Cheng Yu stood up.

Lin An Lan pressed him back down with one hand and smiled at him, “You should properly explain the problem to your little brother.”

Cheng Yu almost cried out in joy and immediately hung up on Xu Zhe’s video call, saying coldly: “He can ask his teacher about his own homework tomorrow. I should go take a shower first. After we shower, we can go to sleep.”

“Forget it. I’m afraid your little brother will come looking for you again in a while.”

“Then let him go find Xu Sheng. I’m not his brother!” Cheng Yu was very cold.

Lin An Lan hummed and walked toward the bathroom.

Cheng Yu followed immediately, however before leaving, he remembered something and sent Xu Zhe a message: [Busy.]

When Xu Zhe saw this “busy”, he knew he should be going to coax Lin An Lan. Sigh, he sighed. This hopeless guy wouldn’t let the person he liked suffer even a little grievance. How could this produce any results?

Xu Zhe was very worried. Xu Zhe was very confused. Xu Zhe flipped through his romance guide, pondering what his next step should be.

He definitely couldn’t count on Cheng Yu, so he had to work hard himself!

After Cheng Yu and Lin An Lan finished showering and came out, they no longer heard Xu Zhe’s voice.

Lin An Lan felt much more peaceful overall. After blow-drying his hair, he lay down on the bed.

This time he didn’t dare let Cheng Yu help him blow-dry his hair, afraid he would hug him like last time. However, as he lay on the bed with his back to Cheng Yu, he felt uncomfortable.

He turned his head to look behind him and could vaguely see that Cheng Yu should be facing him. The bedroom was too dark for him to see Cheng Yu’s expression clearly, but he guessed it must be pitiful.

He would always act pitiful in front of him, every time. Whenever he made him unhappy or wanted him to listen to him, he would look at him pitifully.

He had always indulged him too. Every time he acted this way, his heart would soften, and he would listen to everything he said.

But not this time, Lin An Lan thought to himself. Only this time wouldn’t work. He couldn’t be with Cheng Yu. Only this one thing he couldn’t agree to.

He closed his eyes and tried to fall asleep quickly.

The next day at school, Xu Sheng pulled Cheng Yu aside and asked him how effective it was.

Cheng Yu thought about it, “It seems to be somewhat useful.”

“Does he mind Xiao Zhe?”

“He seems to mind a little.”

“Then don’t you still have a chance?” Xu Sheng was delighted.

Cheng Yu felt that it was hard to say. Lin An Lan seemed to care a little last night, but he had also acted the same as the night before last, still turning his back to him, still not allowing him to have too intimate contact.

“Anyway, I still need to work hard.” Cheng Yu sighed.

After receiving the feedback, Xu Zhe worked very hard that afternoon, sending Cheng Yu a message asking him to go see a movie together after school.

Cheng Yu refused: [What movie would the two of us watch? I’m not going.]

Xu Zhe: [Just listen to me. You can’t do nothing and expect Brother Lin to be jealous. That’s not realistic.]

Cheng Yu wasn’t very willing: [Should I invite him and your brother to come together?]

Xu Zhe: …

Xu Zhe tried to persuade him: [Bro, our current mission is to make Brother Lin jealous of you and me, not to make my brother and me eat dog food from you and Brother Lin!!! I already know that your dog food is sweet and abundant. I don’t need more feeding!!! Woof!]

Xu Zhe felt like he was about to suffer workplace injury!

He had never seen this type of person who was reluctant to let the other person eat even a bit of vinegar, yet claimed he wanted to test the waters. How could you test without making him jealous?! Xu Zhe felt like he was going to die of anger!
