Chapter 81 - It was hard to confess, but cowering back was easy enough.
Jing Huan originally thought that with a lot of people around, it wouldn’t be so awkward.
But he had never considered that Lu Wenhao, who had been nagging for nearly ten hours, would fall silent now. Before, he had said that he was carsick and felt like vomiting. Now, he slept like a pig in the front passenger seat..
Even Gao Zixiang, who was nearby, had fallen asleep by the window.
Jing Huan held the gift box, sat in the middle seat, and carefully hunched his shoulders, feeling like a fool.
“It’s so quiet,” Lu Hang said suddenly. “How about I put on a song for us?”
Jing Huan said in a calm voice, “Okay ah.”
Lu Hang clicked open the music app on his phone, connected to the car via Bluetooth, and wondered, “What’s the matter with your voice?”
“…”
Although he was always using a voice changer in the game, he was still a little flustered when he knew that Lu Hang was Long Road Ahead. With this quiet atmosphere, he began to unconsciously attempt to disguise himself.
Jing Huan coughed. “Maybe I stayed out for too long in the night’s breeze, my throat is a little uncomfortable.”
Xiang Huaizhi turned his head to look at him.
The boy looked straight in front of him and sat completely upright. Someone who didn’t know any better would think that he was sitting in class.
“Sat so much you’re uncomfortable?” he asked.
Jing Huan’s body stiffened, and he shook his head. “No.”
Feeling his tension, Xiang Huaizhi thought that he was too embarrassed to say so.
Pondering for a few seconds, he didn’t give him any extra space but instead said, “You can lean on me.”
As he was worried about waking up the people sleeping in the car, the music Lu Hang had put on was very quiet.
Jing Huan nodded his head casually. He could hear his heart gently pounding in his eardrums, and he didn’t dare to turn his head.
They were already shoulder to shoulder, how much more could he lean against him ah.
The entire road was pretty rough for Jing Huan; his legs were sore by the time they reached the school.
Lu Wenhao woke up in a daze and felt dizzy. He opened up the window, and as a result, the cold wind rushed in and immediately woke him up.
“Holy shit…” As soon as he was given a start, he quickly closed the window, and there was a bit of a chilliness in the car. “Why is it so cold? The temperature dropped?”
Lu Hang glanced at the temperature and said, “En, it’s only 12 degrees outside, this weird weather.”
Gao Zixiang also woke up from the cold. He tightened his coat. “Damn it, who allowed you to open the window? I actually thought I was thrown out of the car by Jing Huan for snoring.”
Jing Huan sniffed and ignored him.
Laozi himself wants to jump out of the car, who has any energy to throw you out.
The car couldn’t drive into the school, and the parking lot was far away from it. Lu Hang pondered. “How about I send you all to the school first, then I’ll go park myself.”
“How would that be good?” Lu Wenhao hurriedly said, “Go directly to the parking lot. Us big men aren’t afraid of freezing.”
“You guys aren’t afraid, but there’s also a birthday boy in the car.” Lu Hang said with a smile, “It’s okay, I’ll send you guys back first.”
When Lu Wenhao heard him say that, he didn’t retort. He yawned, turned his head, and glanced over. “Huanhuan, what’s in your hand?”
Jing Huan said, “Scarf, it’s from Xiang Ge.”
Lu Wenhao’s eyes were envious. “Whoa, that’s very kind. You can just put it on in a second when we get out of the car to block the cold.”
Jing Huan didn’t even think about it. “No, it’s not that far of a walk, no need for that.”
“It’s still better to wear it ba. You always catch a cold in winter.” Lu Wenhao asked, “Or, do you not like the style of this scarf?”
Jing Huan clearly felt the person next to him turned his head and looked out the window.
Jing Huan bared his teeth at Lu Wenhao.
It would be damn well better if you were just asleep.
“How’s that possible, I just… don’t think it’s necessary.” He opened the box, took out the scarf, and gnashed his teeth and said, “Forget it, it does seem cold, I’ll wear it.”
“Huanhuan,” Lu Hang called out to him, “Where’s the house you’re renting?”
“It’s not far from the back gate. I’ll get out of the car with them. Thank you, Lu Ge.” Jing Huan hurriedly said.
After getting out of the car, Jing Huan stuffed his hands in his pockets while not knowing where to look. He could only focus on Lu Wenhao’s face. “Then, I’ll go back first.”
Jing Huan fled into the neighborhood. It was only when he turned the corner and was sure that Xiang Huaizhi couldn’t see him anymore, that he let out the breath that he had been holding.
He went into the elevator and felt that his scarf was damp from his neck’s sweat. He took it off but didn’t look at it again.
When he got home, he hung his scarf in the closet, took off his clothes, and went straight to the bathroom.
Lying in the bathtub, he leaned back, allowing the hot water to soak his neck and finally had a moment to relax.
He laid there for a while with his head completely empty, until he was pulled back to reality by the beep of his cellphone.
Little Road Little Road Certainly Wouldn’t Get Lost: Xiao Jingjing, what’s going on? Come on to do instances?
Jing Huan’s heart shuddered, and all the tension from before came flooding back.
He breathed out and typed calmly.
Xiao Jing ya: I have something to do. Can’t get on tonight
T&#k25KB;T sorry.
Little Road Little Road Certainly Wouldn’t Get Lost: OK, then come tomorrow.
Looking at the chatbox with Lu Hang, Jing Huan had to come face to face with reality again.
He had calmly thought about it on his way back. In fact, there had been many clues about the whole situation.
The few months where Yearning For had given his account to a booster was exactly the time when Xiang Huaizhi had gone home to recuperate from his leg injury.
When they had ended up meeting at the resort, Yearning For happened to be climbing the mountain.
Even their school festivals were held at the same time.
This many coincidental things put together could no longer be called a coincidence.
Everything was clear, he should have noticed long ago… Like hell!!!
How to notice this!
Who could have noticed this!!
Jing Huan took a deep breath. Forget it, it wasn’t the time to fuss about those matters.
He needs to think about what to do next.
What to do in order to perfectly resolve this situation.
Jing Huan began to think about what he had done in the past few months.
It was just pursuing Xiang Huaizhi with great fanfare for several months.
It was just calling out Gege several hundred times.
It was just “cheating” him out of several pieces of equipment and “a few” in-game gold coins.
… It was just sending him a picture of his thighs.
……. And calling him husband, just once.
…………… And forcing Xiang Huaizhi to call him “baby”.
?
Holy shit?
Was he crazy back then, why did he coax a man to call him baby?
Jing Huan was deeply shocked by his shameless self in the past few months.
He wasn’t sure if it was because he had been soaking for a long time or because he was so angry at himself, but for a moment, Jing Huan felt like he was going to faint in the bathtub.
He quickly gathered his thoughts together, left the bathtub, and went back to bed to continue his self-examination.
Half an hour later, when he had finished with his self-reflection, what he thought wasn’t, “How can I explain all this to Ge so that he’s willing to forgive me”, but was now, “How can I beg for mercy just to preserve my pitiful life”.
Jing Huan thought about it, if someone dared to do this to him…
If he didn’t peel off at least one layer of skin from that person, then his surname wasn’t Jing.
His cellphone rang again and really gave Jing Huan another scare. He picked up his cellphone impatiently and had just glanced at it when he completely flipped his whole body around.
Xiang Huaizhi: At home?
Xiao Jing ya: Yes!
Because of his guilt, Jing Huan only had to see the other party’s name in order for his heart to beat faster.
The phone vibrated again.
Xiang: Instances tomorrow at noon.
Xiao Jing ya: Okay!
After replying, Jing Huan dropped his cellphone and sighed at the ceiling.
Fortunately, Xiang Huaizhi still didn’t know who he was. He still had time to think about it.
Jing Huan, be optimistic!
Be strong!
Jing Huan slowly closed his eyes but didn’t feel sleepy.
He suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Ten seconds later, he suddenly opened his eyes, and like a carp fish jumping out of the water, he leapt out of his bed!
He picked up his cellphone fearfully and because his fingers were shaking, it took him a long time to open WeChat.
Only to see the profile pictures of the “Xiang” and “Xiang Huaizhi” accounts close together at the top of his WeChat, as though they were laughing at him.
Jing Huan was completely stupefied.
He had thought it was too much trouble to create a side account, so he had directly added Yearning For on his main account.
And his main account also added Xiang Huaizhi.
If Xiang Huaizhi wasn’t stupid, he should’ve been able to recognize that his wife and his underclassman used the same WeChat account.
Of course, Xiang Huaizhi wasn’t stupid.
“…”
This heavy load of information directly flooded Jing Huan’s brain, and at first, he didn’t even know where to start sorting it out.
Since Xiang Huaizhi actually knew who he was, why didn’t he expose him?
Why did he still marry him??
And to even go so far as throwing such a big wedding???
Jing Huan was completely baffled.
If he had wanted to turn the tables and play him, he still wouldn’t have had to spend this much money.
And he didn’t think Xiang Huaizhi was the kind of person who would use a marriage to play a joke.
Jing Huan thought up countless reasons, and even at the end came up with a completely ridiculous idea—Xiang Huaizhi really liked him.
This idea made him forget to breathe for a moment.
He stared at the two WeChat avatars, and his heart beat even faster.
If, if it was really like this, then, was the one Xiang Huaizhi liked Xiao Tianjing or Jing Huan?
…
Either way, it’s damn deadly.
His twentieth birthday was like the turmoil and the chaos of war.
When Jing Huan woke up the next day, his whole person was dizzy.
He didn’t remember when he went to bed last night. He didn’t have a blanket over him, and a cold wind blew in from the window. Ten seconds later, he felt cold.
He still had his cellphone in his hand.
He had wanted to confess everything to Xiang Huaizhi last night, but after thinking all night long, he still didn’t know how to start.
Jing Huan held up his cellphone to check the time, only to find that it had automatically turned itself off.
Connecting it to its charger, he slowly moved his body and finally got up from the bed to put on some clothes. When he came back, his cellphone had just turned on and was displaying the time, 13:11.
He was stupefied for a moment, and WeChat popped up with several messages.
There were eight in total, six of which were from Lu Hang and Chichi.
Only two were sent by Xiang Huaizhi.
Xiang: Are you awake?
Xiang: When you’re awake, talk.
Jing Huan scratched his hair in chagrin and hurriedly replied.
Xiao Jing ya: Woke up, overslept, I’m sorry…
Xiang: Are you logging in today?
Xiao Jing ya: Yes.
Xiang: En, waiting for you.
Jing Huan bit his lip, made up his mind, and turned to go to the bathroom to wash up.
Because he didn’t walk forward steadily, he hit the corner of his bed, which made him gasp.
He knew that he wasn’t in a good state. After washing up, he took his temperature: 38.7 degrees.
Jing Huan turned on his computer and asked Lu Wenhao to help him excuse himself from class, before quickly logging into the game.
As soon as he logged in, he got an interesting prompt from the child system.
[Wow ~ ~ The baby gave you a little kick in the stomach! ^ ^]
“…”
Laozi has only been pregnant for a few days ah, the baby shouldn’t be moving around, okay!
After Jing Huan finished venting, he received a message from Yearning For.
[Couple] Yearning For: Come home.
Jing Huan transported himself home and was frightened by the courtyard decorations.
The weeds in the yard had all disappeared, and the broken wooden fence was replaced by a solid wall. In the narrow courtyard, there was an extra peach tree and some unknown flowers.
In the middle of the courtyard, there was a bamboo swing and a small wooden horse.
Although not luxurious, it was simple and warm. It was more like a home than the grand mansion Xiang Huaizhi had before.
[Couple] Yearning For: I just casually bought some things.
[Couple] Xiao Tianjing: …
[Couple] Yearning For: Don’t like it?
[Couple] Xiao Tianjing: I like it.
Jing Huan licked his lips and started typing.
Early death, early liberation.
He had to confess everything.
But, he had pondered over the words of his confessions ten or so times, writing and deleting, and never once did he send anything out.
Jing Huan thought that even high school essays weren’t this difficult to write.
Until they entered the instance team, Jing Huan couldn’t even send out a single word.
“Xiao Jingjing,” Lu Hang asked jokingly, “How was it, are you satisfied with the new courtyard?”
[Team] Xiao Tianjing: Satisfied… How did you know we changed the courtyard?
“Of course I know. Xiangxiang was just looking at decoration plans on the forum.” Lu Hang tuted. “Even more serious than being in class.”
[Team] Xiao Tianjing: ….
Jing Huan felt his throat was dry and took a big mouthful of water from the glass beside his mouse.
At this time, several megaphones popped up at the bottom of the screen.
[Megaphone] Regardless of Lovesickness: Day 1 of not liking Xiaoxiao challenge.
[Megaphone] Regardless of Lovesickness: Failed the challenge!
[Megaphone] Regardless of Lovesickness: Happy three year anniversary~
“Hey, why is this Lovesickness imitating you ah?” Lu Hang was happy. “But, how come I haven’t seen you challenge yourself recently to not like your Gege?”
[Team] Xiao Tianjing: …
[Team] Yearning For: No need to challenge anymore.
[Team] Yearning For: Can’t you see the couple title?
Jing Huan felt as though his temperature had risen again.
He raised his hand to cover his face, and his heart pounded in his chest.
How about… waiting until he got better before saying anything?
If he had a fever, Xiang Huaizhi probably couldn’t be happy while beating him up, right?
It was hard to confess, but cowering back was easy enough.
As soon as he moved his head up and down, Jing Huan made a new decision.
No matter why the other person went along with his lie… Let him be a tortoise for another two days. When he is well, he will come out of his tortoise shell himself and let Xiang Huaizhi slaughter him.
The author has something to say:
I wrote a little bug before. It will be modified.
Lu Hang didn’t drink alcohol. In order to drive, he drank tea instead of wine.
Don’t drink or drive. Stay away from drinking and driving. Go home safely.
