What should I do if the man Iâve been dreaming about suddenly hug me? Iâm waiting anxiously online!
Oh My God, my heart feels like itâs soaked in honey water, sweet and soft.
My body, itâs as if it had been electrocuted. Itâs soft and numb.
Ye Qingran stood rooted to the ground. Her sensitive mind suddenly froze, leaving only a blank space.
She kept asking in her heart with the only sentence, âWhat should I do? What should I do?â
By the time she came back to her senses, Chu Yan had released her.
Ye Qingran raised her eyes to look at him. Her eyes darted around as she thought to herself, âis it a hug from a brother, a hug from a friend, or a hug from an elder to a junior?â.
Should she ask him directly?
Was it too direct and not reserved that it might scare him off?
But he had hugged her directly, and he was even more direct. He did not feel anything, so what was there to be afraid of.
âBrother, youâ¦â hug me.
âA hug after returning. Whatâs wrong? We havenât seen each other for a while, and youâre so stingy that I am allowed to hug you.â
Chu Yan was so magnanimous, but it made Ye Qingran feel that she seemed to be overthinking things.
She laughed. âBrother, you canât blame me. Itâs just that my charm is too great, killing both men and women.â
Chu Yan raised his eyebrows. âKill both men and women? A man confessed to you?â
âWell, I think there was one, but I didnât pay attention to it.â In the hostâs memory, there was indeed a time when she was too good-looking and dressed as a man. It was not strange for a gay man to like her.
âKid, if you meet such a man, you should punch him directly. Do you know that?â A cold dark light flashed in Chu Yanâs eyes.
âI heard Ruoruo say that there was a man who confessed to you with a gift and was thrown into the moat. Is that true?â Ye Qingran asked with a smile.
Chu Yan said calmly, âWhy was Ruoruo talking about this?â
âBecause sheâ¦â she suspected that I liked you and was afraid that you would throw me into the moat. âShe wanted to tell me that you donât like men.â
She paused for a moment and asked, âOther than men, have any other girls confessed to you?â
âThey shouldnât be as charming as you.â
âAre you trying to tell me that no girls are confessing to you? Thatâs impossible, right?â Ye Qingran knew that he was lying to her the moment she heard it.
âI donât remember,â Chu Yan replied casually.
âHow can you not remember such an important thing? You have to know that this is the time to show off your charm. This is what men care about the most.â
The host and the boy had been together for a long time. The most common topic of their conversation was which girl was pretty, which girl they fancied, and which girl liked them.
Being liked by a pretty girl was a great thing for them.
âI donât know if other men care about it, but I know that I donât.â
âThen, ifâ¦â Ye Qingran wanted to say something, but she stopped halfway.
Chu Yan looked at her. âWhat if?â
Ye Qingran pursed her lipsâ¦
At that moment, her stomach was rumbling when she suddenly heard the sound of hunger.
Ye Qingran was stunned for a moment, then she felt awkward.
Chu Yan looked at her and smiled faintly. âHungry?â
Ye Qingran replied with a little embarrassment, âI fell asleep on the plane and didnât have dinner.â
âWhat do you want to eat?â
âIâm so hungry now that I can eat anything.â Ye Qingran pointed to the south. âI remember that thereâs a good restaurant over there. It should be not closing yet. Why donât we go there and eat something before we go back?â
Chu Yan and Ye Qingran sat in the driverâs seat and the passengerâs seat respectively. Chu Yan started the car and replied, âAuntie bought a lot of dishes at home. Just let her cook whatever you want to eat. You can eat it when you get home.â
Ye Qingran thought for a moment and asked, âDo you have fish?â
âYes.â
âThen I want a braised fish with red sauce and stir-fried meat with green peppers. Others are up to you. Whatever Auntie cooks, Iâll eat.â
Chu Yan used his Bluetooth to call his auntie, reminding her to cook fish and stir-fried meat with green peppers. He also added a portion of tofu, which was also Ye Qingranâs favourite dish.
âBrother, have you not eaten yet?â
âIâm waiting for you to eat with me.â
âWhat if my flight is late? It might take me until midnight.â
Ye Qingran still couldnât get over the hug.
While Chu Yan was focused on driving, she used her phone to search on the Internet: What does it mean for a man to hug a man?
The answer was all about men hugging women, all kinds of hugs.
Love, friendship, sympathy, gay loveâ¦
About an hour later, they returned to the small villa.
The housekeeper auntie had prepared the dishes. After bringing them out, she greeted the two of them and went back.
Ye Qingran was hungry. After washing her hands, she came out and started eating with a big bowl in her hand.
When she was almost done eating, Ye Qingran saw Chu Yan sitting opposite her. âBrother, is there something you want to tell me?â
âWhy are you asking me this all of a sudden?â
âNothing.â
Ye Qingran smiled and lowered her head to eat. She chewed slowly and did not say anything else.
Chu Yan asked indifferently, âDid anything interesting happen while you were playing outside during this period?â
Ye Qingran replied with a smile, âThere are many, many interesting things. I met a lot of interesting people. In an ancient city, I met an old man. That old man was a very powerful scientist. After he retired at the age of sixty, he would sit at the entrance of a shop in the ancient city every day. People said that he was waiting for his first loveâ¦â
She had seen tens of millions of people in the world and their lives, so she could better examine herself.
She understood that everyoneâs life was different. There were sacrifices and gains. A personâs life was very short, so she did not want to make things difficult for herself.
She cherished the present and moved forward calmly.
She told Chu Yan a few things about the people and things she met on the journey.
Chu Yanâs tone seemed to have some regret, but it seemed to be a joke. âIf I had known that it would be so fun, I would have gone with you.â
Ye Qingran said, âNext time, there will be a very beautiful ancient city. In March next year, the Peach Forest will bloom and it will be even more beautiful. Brother, shall we go together?â
Chu Yan immediately said, âOkay.â
After eating, Ye Qingran immediately stood up to tidy up. Chu Yan held her hand and said, âDonât move. Iâll do it.â
âLetâs do it together.â
âNo need. You rest.â Chu Yan put away all the dishes.
Ye Qingran followed him in. Chu Yan washed the dishes while she stood by the side. âIâll wipe the water and disinfect it.â
Chu Yan washed one after another. She wiped the water dry and put it into the disinfecting cabinet.
âBrother.â
âYes.â
Ye Qingran looked straight at Chu Yan. She found that Chu Yan seemed to be in a good mood tonight. He laughed a few times, which made people feel very comfortable.
âBrother, let me tell you a secret?â Her soft voice was accompanied by a moist and hot breath that sounded in Chu Yanâs ear.
âHMM?â Chu Yan glanced at her.
âI like brotherâ¦â
