The buffet that He Zhou said was on the second floor of a five-star hotel was exactly the same as that of other hotels, nothing special. The only advantage is that there are fewer people, so they donât have to queue for anything.
When Jing Ci and Ying Jiao arrived, He Zhou and the others set half the table.
Seeing the two of them, He Zhou couldnât help but complain: âYou guys are too slow, did you have to put on makeup and sunscreen before going out?â
The waiter brought two hot towels at the right time, and Ying Jiao slowly wiped his hands while saying, âtraffic jam.â
âTheoretically there shouldnât be.â He Zhou retorted subconsciously: âItâs not rush hour.â
Ying Jiao put down the towel and snorted: âTheoretically, the national football team can still win the World Cup.â
He ignored He Zhou, stood up and pulled Jing Qi to the dining area: âLetâs go, and get some food.â
Ying Jiaoâs tall body took two plates from below, handed one to Jing Ci, and asked him, âSalmon or king crab?â
Jing Ci put two lobsters on the plate and shook his head: âNo.â
Ying Jiao smiled, didnât force him, just took his share. He found out early that Jing Ci was not very interested in seafood, he liked fish and shrimp a little, but he basically didnât touch other things such as mussels and crabs.
The two picked and picked, took a few more plates for meat and fruit, and received the drinks, and then sat down to eat.
At the dining table, no one mentioned Father Jing. Zheng Que stuffed a piece of chicken into his mouth, raised his head and said to Ying Jiao, âBrother Jiao, are you still going out this winter vacation?â
It was probably a habit developed by going to China and the UK when he was a child. Ying Jiao likes to travel very much and often goes out to play during the holidays.
âNo.â Ying Jiao flexibly used a fork to pick out the lobster meat from the shell and put it in Jing Ciâs bowl, without raising his head: âI donât have time.â
Zheng Que didnât understand: âItâs more than a monthâs leave, what are you busy with?â

Ying Jiao hooked his lips and smiled, with pride and smugness in his tone: âFalling in love, and studying.â
Zheng Que: ââ¦â
He Zhou forked a piece of lamb chop, and rolled his eyes at him while biting: âWe are having a good meal, can you stop talking nonsense?â
Ying Jiao lifted his eyelids and glanced at him: âI already have a boyfriend, whatâs wrong with saying these two words?â
He Zhou couldnât bear it anymore and turned to Jing Ci: âBrother Ci, can you take care of him?â
Jing Ciâs ears were a little red, he pushed the salmon that Ying Jiao liked in front of him, lowered his eyes and said, âLetâs eat.â
âOkay, eat.â Ying Jiao immediately stopped, picked up a piece of salmon, dipped it in some soy sauce, and put it in his mouth.
Other dishes in this buffet can only be said to be average, but the roasted lamb chops alone are a must. Lamb chops are French chops, with very little fat, but they are rare without firewood. They are fragrant and tender. Because it is freshly roasted, the meat is still very hot, and there is no smell of mutton.
Jing Ci liked it very much and ate two pieces in a row.
Ying Jiao calmly wrote down his preferences, watched the time he put the bones in the trash, and reached out to fork the last lamb chop on the plate.

Coincidentally, He Zhou also made the same action at the same time.
He Zhou held down the lamb chop and tried desperately to bring it to his side: âBrother Jiao, donât try to trick me, I was one second faster than you, so this piece is mine.â
âOh.â Ying Jiao said lightly, âEating so much meat, do you have a sumo match tonight?â
Taking advantage of He Zhou being stunned, he used force in his hand to successfully fork the lamb chops and put it on Jing Ciâs plate: âEat it, donât bother with him.â
âYing Jiao! You bastard!â He Zhou stood up angrily, holding a fork and was about to come over to fight Ying Jiao: âWho did you say is going to the sumo competition?!â
He was big, and he didnât pay attention. All of a sudden, he directly tilted the plate containing vanilla roast chicken next to him, and a piece of greasy chicken splashed and fell to the ground onto Ying Jiaoâs trousers.
Ying Jiaoâs brows furrowed instantly.
He has no obsession with cleanliness, but just hates the feeling of food on his body.
âIâm going to the bathroom.â He took the tissue handed by Jing Ci and wiped it twice, but still felt uncomfortable, got up and walked out after saying a word.
âNo, Brother Ci. With his stinky problems, how can you bear him?â He Zhou still remembered to get revenge for the lamp chops, and while Ying Jiao was not around, he gave Jing Ci eye drops.
(T/n: HZ didnât really give him eye drops, he is just trying to open up JC eyes about how bad YJ is lol)
He stretched out his fingers and listed them to Jing Ci: âNo one else is allowed to wear his clothes, no one can touch his bed, and he canât stand the smell of greaseâ¦to put it simply, you canât live with him.â
Jing Ci was startled: âCanât wear his clothes, or touch his bed?â
âYeah.â Zheng Que grabbed the mutton skewer in his hand, and said while eating, âBrother Ci, donât you know? Then heâs doing a good job of covering it up in front of you.â

âLast year, I forgot whether it was autumn or winter.â Zheng Que recalled: âWe were playing on the playground, and a girl who had a crush on him secretly wore the school uniform he took off. He didnât say anything out loud, and then threw his clothes away.â
Peng Chengcheng interjected: âHe doesnât wear other peopleâs clothes either.â
He Zhou nodded fiercely: âYes, yes, so we donât go to his bedroom when we go to his house to play.â
Jing Ci lowered his eyes, kept holding his fork, and did not move for a long time.
He has used Ying Jiaoâs bathroom, worn his clothes, and slept in his bed.
In the past, he always thought that this was a trivial matter that could not be more common. Unexpectedly, these are the privileges that Ying Jiao only gave him.
Jing Ciâs chest was hot.
It turned out that for Ying Jiao, he was special. Itâs always been that way from before their relationship to now.
In the following time, Ying Jiao always felt that Jing Ci looked at him wrong, but he couldnât tell what was wrong. Just seeing him like this made him really want to kiss him.
Ying Jiao thought about it for a long time and couldnât understand it, and finally attributed the reason to the hallucination of yang qi in his body condensing and not dissipating.

After eating, He Zhou and the others went to Ying Jiaoâs house in Cen Yue Bay(not sure if that is correct) to play games. Ying Jiao refused their invitation and prepared to go home with Jing Ci to do their homework.
He originally wanted to take a taxi back like they first came, but Jing Ci didnât listen to him this time.
âWeâre not in a hurry, letâs take the subway back.â Jing Ci took out his mobile phone and showed Ying Jiao: âThe subway entrance is on the other side of the ancient city, very close.â
Itâs less than ten yuan for two people to take the subway, but it costs more than thirty to take a taxi.
âOkay.â Ying Jiao nodded: âIâll follow you.â
The two entered the ancient city according to the guidance of the navigation.
It is said to be an ancient city, but it is actually a commercial street. It is past the lunch hour, and the office workers have all gone to sleep. It is quiet inside, and there are not many people.
Jing Ci and Ying Jiao crossed the main road and were about to turn right when a laughing voice suddenly sounded behind them: âLook, who is it? Where are you going?â
Ying Shengjun walked up from behind with five or six people, squinting at Ying Jiao: âWhy are you back? Youâll get my eyes dirty as soon as you go out.â
Ying Jiao took a step forward, blocked Jing Ci behind him, and sneered: âIf itâs dirty, dig it.â
He raised his eyebrows and looked at Ying Shengjun, and said lightly: âOh, no, the blood on your body is dirty, you have to go to the crematorium for a walk.â
(T/n: not sure what YJ means here.)
âYou!â Ying Shengjun was enraged by Ying Jiao, and he had been holding his breath for a long time, but now he was sneering about his life experience, and the fire suddenly came up.
He snorted coldly and said viciously, âAnd youâre not dirty! So what? You canât even go home.â
Ying Jiao took the initiative to move out, only Yingâs father knew. Both Ying Shengjun and Ye Lili thought he was kicked out by father Ying, and they often made fun of him with this.

Ying Jiao didnât care at all. He put one hand in his pocket and said lazily, âSo you still feel pretty proud of living in a cesspit every day?â
(Cesspit- âa pit for the disposal of liquid waste and sewageâ.)
Ying Shengjun had a mouthful of old blood stuck in his throat, and his choked face flushed.
âWhy donât you try again?â A man with red hair pointed at Ying Jiao with his finger, and said viciously: âIdiot, you come out standing out straight and I will let you go back sideways today.â
Ying Shengjun looked at Ying Jiao maliciously, and took a step forward following the red haired guyâs words.
Of course he wouldnât dare to face Ying Jiao alone, but now there are six of them. On the other hand, on Ying Jiaoâs side, there are only two people, one is still a little white face who is too thin, and it is weak at first glance.
When it comes to fighting, Ying Jiao has never been afraid of anyone, he is just afraid of involving Jing Ci.
âYou find a shop to hide first.â Ying Jiao tilted his head to look at Jing Ci and said softly, âIâll find you when Iâm done.â
Seeing that he didnât move, Ying Jiao said again: âBe obedient, I will be distracted with you here.â
Jing Ci raised his eyes and glanced at Ying Shengjunâs group, nodded, didnât stop, and walked straight towards a restaurant.

Ying Jiao watched him walk into the store, and then took his eyes back.
Ying Shengjun didnât care about Jing Ci at all, what he wanted to beat was Ying Jiao. He was still worried about where to find Ying Jiao, but who would have thought that he would meet him here by chance. He would be sorry for Godâs will if he didnât beat him now when he had the chance!
A man in black(dressed?) came up, looked Ying Jiao up and down, and asked Ying Shengjun, âIs he your cheap brother whoâs mother is dead?â
Ying Shengjun made a âumâ sound.
Ying Jiaoâs eyes slowly moved to him, and his eyes were instantly stained with anger. He walked over without saying a word, and raised his leg against the stomach of the guy in black(wearing black clothes?).
He was not prepared for his sudden attack, screamed in agony, and fell heavily to the ground.
When Ying Shengjun and his gang saw their friend being beaten, they rushed up cursingly and wanted to besiege Ying Jiao. At this moment, a large piece of viscous pale yellow liquid fell from the sky, covering their faces.
With a large bucket of peanut oil in his hand, Jing Ci stood in front of Ying Jiao expressionlessly, and poured it on them at a precise and cunning angle.
âF*ck-your mom!â The oil on Ying Shengjunâs chin kept dripping down, his eyelashes were glued together, and his eyes almost couldnât open. He reached out and wiped his face, spit out twice, goosebumps covered all over his body. He gritted his teeth and turned to Jing Ci: âAre you courting death?â
He raised his hand and wanted to come over to beat Jing Ci, but who knew that just after taking a step, his foot suddenly slipped and hit the red haired guy heavily.
The ground was full of oil, which was already slippery, and the red-haired feet could not exert any strength. Being hit by Ying Shengjun like this, he couldnât stabilize his body at all, and with Ying Shengjun, he fell to the ground in embarrassment.

This time, the two of them seemed to be soaked in an oil pan, and their whole body was immersed in the oil.
Several other people also had oil thrown out at them by Jing Ci, and they walked towards him with red eyes and gritted teeth: âYou donât want your hand anymore, do you?â
Jing Ciâs expression remained unchanged, he put the empty oil drum down, took out a lighter from his pocket, and said coldly, âCome here again, and Iâll set it on fire.â
One of them laughed: âWho are you scaring? I donât believe itâ¦â
Before he could finish a sentence, he saw Jing Ci suddenly open the lid of the lighter and start a fire.
It was pale yellow surrounded by blue flames, beating strangely in the air, and looked chilling.
Jing Ci held the flame and took two steps forward, his voice was flat and did not fluctuate at all: âIt would be a big deal to die together.â
They were stunned silly, and stunned silly for fear of dying.
Several people were so frightened that they retreated again and again, and even Ying Shengjun and the red haired guy, who were lying on the ground, got up with their hands and feet, and scrambled to run back.
Damn, they just wanted to fight, who would have thought they would run into a lunatic!
Ying Shengjun was right, his younger brother is crazy, and so are his friends around him!
Almost in the blink of an eye, Ying Shengjun and his group disappeared into the ancient city, leaving only a string of oily footprints.

Jing Ci breathed a sigh of relief and put down the lighter.
Ying Jiao looked at him with complex eyes: âYou didnât have to do this, I can take care of them.â
He was gifted at fighting from an early age, especially after staying in the military camp. In the past, when he had conflicts with others, it was him who stood in front of others, and his friends were used to it. Anyway, he is very strong and wonât get hurt.
This was the first time that someone had protected him.
His Jing Ci, obviously canât fight, obviously hates trouble, but when someone provokes him, he still rushes in front of him without hesitation.
âThat wonât work.â Jing Ci pursed his lower lip, and picked up the oil drum: âItâs one thing for you to beat them, but itâs another thing for them to fight you in front of me.â
For him, Ying Jiao is also special. No one can beat his head, and no one can beat Ying Jiao. Whoever hurts Ying Jiao even a little, he can fight with whomever he wants.

Afraid that Ying Jiao would feel that he was cruel, Jing Ci walked over and explained to him in a low voice: âPeanut oil is not gasoline, it ignites very high but the flames are so small. Now that it is winter, there will be no accident.â
He looked at Ying Jiao embarrassedly, and his cheeks were a little red: âI⦠I just scared them, but I didnât expect them to believe it. At first glance, they didnât learn chemistry well.â
Ying Jiao took a deep breath, resisted the urge to kiss him fiercely, and pulled him into his arms.
It is said that falling in love is easy, but staying together is difficult. Because the longer two people are together, the more flaws they expose to each other.
However, Jing Ci is like a small treasure, and every time, he can dig out different treasures from him. So that every day, he loves him more than the day before.
With infinite tenderness in Ying Jiaoâs heart, Jing Ci suddenly reached out and pushed him: âYing Jiao.â
âWhatâs the matter, baby?â
Jing Ci whispered: âShall we borrow some tools to wipe the oil off the ground?â
Ying Jiao: ââ¦â
âOtherwise it would be too much trouble for others.â
Ying Jiao laughed lowly, yes, this is what Jing Ci is like.

Never cuts the queue when eating, if you want to drink hot water in winter, you have to wait for the girls to go first before you go, and you must pay back what you owe to othersâ¦
How could he be so good.
Ying Jiao lowered his head and kissed his hair softly, âOkay.â
âAlso⦠I was in a hurry to get the oil, and I didnât give the moneyâ¦â
âOkay, Iâll pay.â
âThe lighter has to be returned to others.â
âYes, Iâll pay it back.â
âNext time⦠Next time that person comes looking for trouble, you call me. After this incident, he must be very afraid of me.â
âOkay, Iâll listen to you.â
