After finals were over, it was time to prepare for the winter vacation.
âLetâs pick a time and go out for a hot pot meal together ba. How about the third day after New Yearâs, is everyone free then?â Lao Da asked as he was packing up.
âYou should ask He Zi, heâs probably the only one whoâs free in the whole dormitory.â Lao San picked up his luggage and said, âMy girlfriend is coming to my hometown on the third day after New Yearâs. Your guysâ wives should also be pestering you guys for dates ba? Heâs the only one whoâs single.â
Lao San patted him on the shoulder. âKeep fighting ah, magician.â
âMagician my ass, Iâm definitely not free.â Lu Xiuhe put on his backpack.
âYouâre not free? Are you going to pay New Yearâs visits?â
âNo,â the corners of Lu Xiuheâs mouth sprang upward as he announced, âIâm going to go see my partner on the second day after New Yearâs.â
As soon as these words were uttered, the dorm went quiet for a moment.
After that, there was no one who was in a hurry to toss their luggage around any longer, and instead, they all gathered around Lu Xiuhe.
âWtf, your partner? When did you get a partner?â
âYouâre not single anymore? I see, it must be that girl who gave you the scarf last timeââ
âWait, how do you know someone gave me a scarf?â Lu Xiuhe was dumbfounded.
The girl who had given him a scarf that last time had later confessed to him again. He had politely refused and returned the scarf. Afraid that that girl would be gossipped about, he hadnât said anything about it to anyone.
Lao Da let out a âheheâ and said, âWhat secrets are there with the girls over there ah, my girlfriend told me like 800 years ago.â
âYo, and knitting a scarf for you? When do you ever need a scarf in Manyang ah?â Lao San said, âStill, it does count as a thoughtful gift, but He Zi, why didnât you agree?â
âItâs not that I didnât agree, it was that that girl looked at my exam results and regretted it, so she asked me to send the scarf back that night itself.â Lu Xiuhe made up some excuse casually.
âCome on ba. Okay, we wonât talk about that anymore, but who is your partner?â
âTheyâreâ¦â Lu Xiuhe raised his eyes. âWhat do you care about who my partner is?â
Lao Da stared at him. âCanât even ask?â
âNo, you guys canât.â Lu Xiuhe waved his hand as he said, âMy partner is so good that I canât tell other people about them. Iâm afraid youâll ridiculously covet them.â
ââ¦â¦â
âBad conduct.â Everyone else had been energized by anger at this statement. âMight as well not talk.â
Lao San said cheerfully, âItâs a big happy event ah, in order to celebrate He Zi finally having a sex life, we should, no matter what, partake in some barbeque tonight ba?â
Lu Xiuhe paused in his motions. âWhat?â
âBarbecue ah, not throwing you into another pit, just the one at the intersection in front of the school, itâs cheap.â Lao San said, âIt canât be that youâre not even willing to spend that much ba?â
Lu Xiuhe replied, ââ¦Willing! Of course Iâm willing!â
After the end of the party, when he went home with his luggage, he felt that he had wasted a lot of money.
No sex life and no money.
He was very miserable.
They had kissed for a long time in the hotel room previously. In those two days, he had pretty much stayed in the hotel room with Zuo Zhen and had⦠compared abs.
En, and compared other things.
Comparing sizes wasnât something that he hadnât done before, but he had never done it⦠in such a fashion that burned with ardor.
But they didnât go all the way. Zuo Zhen didnât bring it up, so he couldnât keep going either.
Back home, after listening to his parentsâ nagging, Lu Xiuhe went and buried himself in his room.
Like a thief, he locked the door, and even turned off the lights before putting his laptop at the head of the bed, and drawing his bedding all the way over his head.
Then he entered, word by word, into Baidu searchââ
âHow do men doi with menâ
All the search results turned out to be a bunch of useless things, and only then did he realize that Baidu mighty not know the meaning of doi, so he changed that word, and Baidued it again.
For a moment, after reading the explanation on the screen, his heart was filled with sincere exclamations, and even his emotions experienced an upheaval with those words.
What the fuck.
What the fuck??
â¦â¦ what the fuck!!!
Zuo Zhen, who had been practicing dancing for the entire day, finally took advantage of the break time to sit in a corner of the dance practice room and call his boyfriend.
His boyfriend took a long time to pick up the call. He was in a dark environment, and Zuo Zhen couldnât see anything except a face.
Just as he was about to say something, the person on the camera suddenly drew up close to the screen.
âBaby,â Lu Xiuhe said in a breathy voice, âLet me ask you a questionâ¦â
Zuo Zhen laughed and lazily let out an âen.â
âFirst of all, Iâll just ask.â Lu Xiuhe coughed gently and said, âWould you prefer being a bit tired, or in a bit of pain ah?â
â&#k2026;.â
Lu Xiuhe added, âUm, Iâm just asking casually.â
Lu Xiuheâs face was so shy that it was obvious that he was talking about something serious. Zuo Zhen just had to think about it for a bit before he figured out what he was saying.
âI just likeâ¦â Having said those words, Zuo Zhen suddenly picked up the cellphone, put it close to his mouth, and in a hoarse voice, he copied the other personâs breathy tone to state, âMaking you feel good.â
ââ
On the second day of the new year, Lu Xiuhe rushed out of the house with his luggage even as his parents cursed at him.
It was impossible for him to go pay New Yearâs visits; how could New Yearâs visits be more important than meeting his partner?
It had snowed heavily in Jincheng, and so the flight was delayed. Lu Xiuhe sat in his seat, chatting with Big Fan.
[Big Fan: How come when I checked your flight there, it still hasnât taken off ah?]
[Yeah, itâs snowing over there, and they keep stopping us from flying, so Iâm trapped on the plane.]
[Big Fan: Then will you still be able to catch the airport meetup in time ah? Zhenzhenâs flight is about to take off!]
Lu Xiuhe was just about to reply when his cellphone interface suddenly changed, indicating that a video-call was incoming.
Seeing the caller ID, he hurriedly got up and ran into the bathroom.
Zuo Zhen was wearing a mask, a pair of sunglasses, and a knitted hat on his head. Judging from his background, he should still be in the VIP lounge at the airport.
âWhere are you?â Zuo Zhen saw his white background and asked.
Yes, Lu Xiuhe had not given Zuo Zhen any prior notice about him coming to Jincheng at all.
Last month, Zuo Zhen had officially announced his withdrawal from the group, a matter which had caused a great stir on the Internet. His trending status had reached a peak that had not been seen since the establishment of the group itself. In order to drain every last drop of his value to the group before he left, the company had made him travel all over the place for a week already, and almost every day of that week, he had had to take some form or the other of large transportation.
Lu Xiuhe himself wasnât the pestering sort and definitely wouldnât bother him at such a time. Zuo Zhen, on the other hand, had sent him pre-booked tickets several times before finally being persuaded by Lu Xiuhe to get a refund on those tickets.
Lu Xiuhe did want to see him very much, but if he let this person travel back and forth after being tossed around in such a fashion by his company, then Zuo Zhen would have to sleep on the plane en route. It was too much of a hassle, so even if he was distressed, he couldnât bear to make Zuo Zhen do this.
So as soon as he had a holiday, he hurried in Zuo Zhenâs direction without even stopping and bought tickets. He thought it would be best to see Zuo Zhen, but if he couldnât, then he would see him after Zuo Zhen finished his work.
âEating out, and in the bathroom now.â Lu Xiuhe looked at the background around him on the screen. âYou havenât boarded the plane yet?â
âNo. Itâs snowing heavily in Jincheng, and they canât take off,â said Zuo Zhen.
Lu Xiuheâs heart relaxed. It seemed that he could still make it to the airport meetup. He said, âThatâs goodâ¦â
At this time, two knocks sounded out suddenly on the bathroom door.
A gentle female voice came from the outside as it said, âHello? Weâre about toâ¦â
Lu Xiuhe was startled and quickly interrupted her, âIâll come out immediately!â
After sending the flight attendant away, Lu Xiuhe saw Zuo Zhen frown through his sunglasses.
Zuo Zhen was silent for a moment and then asked, âAre you in the womenâs restroom?â
ââ¦â¦â Lu Xiuhe said, âNoâ¦. I have something to do, Iâll explain it to you later. Baby, Iâm hanging up now ah.â
Just as Zuo Zhen was about to say something in reply, the screen flashed, and he realized that the other party had already hung up.
âZhen Ge, who is it ah?â Xu Min saw him holding his cellphone and asked.
Zuo Zhen replied, âYour sister-in-law.â
ââ¦â¦â Xu Min didnât expect him to dare to say that. He quickly lowered the volume and advised, âGe, you should keep your voice down. By the way, Iâve had this question for you for a while.â
âSay it.â
âAre you quitting because of sister-in-law ah?â
Zuo Zhen frowned slightly and glanced at him.
âNo.â
Xu Min let out an âoh and said, âI thought⦠Because itâs too much of a coincidence, you know, as soon as the two of you have gotten together, youâre going to quit.â
âYouâve gotten it out of order,â Zuo Zhen replied.
âAh, what do you mean?â
Itâs not because of him that I quit the group, but itâs because I quit that I can now chase him,â Zuo Zhenâs tone was no different from usual as he said this.
âWhy ah? Didnât you say you have liked him since a long time ago?â
When the boarding announcement began to blare through the lounge, Zuo Zhen stood up and put on his coat.
âTo be an idol requires one to maintain the consciousness of an idol. The fans treat me as a boyfriend, so although I canât respond to them, at the very least, I canât accept their love and still be with another person at the same time.â
Xu Min heard this and froze. âThen with you stuck in such a manner, what if he got together with someone else during that time?â
A dark light flashed through Zuo Zhenâs eyes, but he soon noticed its existence before catching and stowing it away.
âHe wouldnât.â Zuo Zhen returned to his former appearance, and with a casual smile on his mouth, declared, âHe can only like me.â
As soon as Lu Xiuhe arrived at the airport, he was surrounded by fans.
Big Fan stood in front of him and introduced him to the others, âThis is the male fan who was noticed by Zhenzhen at the airport last time!â
This immediately caused a stir among the fans. Everyone scrambled to shake Lu Xiuheâs hand. This lasted until the flight notification board indicated that Zuo Zhenâs plane had landed, and only then did Lu Xiuhe finally get free of the crowd.
Big Fan took out her own light board. âLulu, do you want the light board? Iâll give this to you, and youâll have to get me another signature.â
âNo need anymore.â Lu Xiuhe pulled something out of his backpack, which was his own rough light board. âI have one! I made it myself!â
Big Fan looked at his light board with its crooked words and inability to light up. She nodded and said, ââ¦as long as youâre happy.â
Big Fan didnât expect such a mediocre light board to really actually attract Zhenzhenâs attention.
It was even to the point where, in that moment, she sensed the surprise that appeared on Zuo Zhenâs face.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Before Zuo Zhen could walk to Lu Xiuhe, Lu Xiuhe said in a loud voice, âZhenzhen has worked hardââ
ââ¦â¦not hard.â Zuo Zhenâs current expression was complex, and he still carried a helpless smile on his face. He asked, âAre you that fan from last time?â
âYes.â Lu Xiuhe said, âIâm that fan who super likes you!â
ââ¦.â
Lu Xiuhe was smiling so much his eyes had turned into crescent moons. He said, âCan Zhenzhen sign for me ah!â
This move of his caught Zuo Zhen completely off guard. He couldnât help but laugh and reached to take his signature pen from his pocket, but it turned out that this pen had run out of ink.
A familiar pen was then handed to him, the very one he had given at the airport meetup last time.
âUse mine ba, Zhenzhen,â Lu Xiuhe said.
After everyone in Pz, in a formidable array, left the airport, Lu Xiuhe was immediately surrounded.
âAhhhhh youâre a lucky talismanba!! If I touch you twice, will Zhenzhen see me next time?!â
âWhat kind of constitution do you have?! Sell me the light board! Daddy!!â
âI just want that autograph pen ahhhhhhhââ
Lu Xiuhe giggled and laughed while chatting with the fans, and quickly stored the light board and pen into his backpack in an orderly fashion. âNot selling, not selling, as I said before, these are all my family treasuresâ¦â
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the crisp jingle of his cellphone.
Z: Come out, exit 21.
Lu Xiuhe quickly said goodbye to the fans and went to exit 21 without stopping even once on the way.
This was the exit located last in the airport, so the number of people here was much less than at the other exits, with not even taxi drivers waiting here. Lu Xiuhe went out of this exit and immediately saw the van parked there.
As soon as he walked two steps forward, he saw the door of the van being suddenly pulled open. He opened his mouth and was about to greet Zuo Zhen when the person in question grabbed his arm and fiercely pulled him into the car. The door was immediately shut after him.
Lu Xiuhe was happy. âAre you kidnapping me hereâ¦â
Before he could finish his sentence, Zuo Zhen bit his lip.
âI missed you so much.â
Lu Xiuhe froze and quickly looked inside the car.
There were only three people in the carâHimself, Zuo Zhen, and a driver who looked to be Zuo Zhenâs assistant.
He quickly said, âBros donât need to be so emotional, I-I missed you too ah.â He kept winking at Zuo Zhen.
âIf you call me bro again, I will be angry.â Zuo Zhen frowned, discontented.
âSomeoneâs here!â Lu Xiuhe said.
âItâs okay. He wonât say anything.â
The assistant seemed to sense something and quickly pulled up the shield between the front and back seats specially installed in their car.
Lu Xiuhe let out a breath, while Zuo Zhen was still kissing him. One kiss followed another, and he was like a cat that continually kept pestering people.
âAlright, donât kiss anymore.â Lu Xiuhe said while laughing, âYou wait for me to put my bags away.â
Zuo Zhen listened to him and sat aside. He was wearing no make-up today. There were some dark circles under his eyes, but he still looked a lot more energetic than he had in the video-call before.
Lu Xiuhe casually put his bag on the ground and took out a red envelope from it.
Zuo Zhen was startled, and before he could react, Lu Xiuhe handed over the red envelope to him while greeting, âHappy new year ah, wife.â
ââ¦â¦â Zuo Zhenâs eyelashes quivered. âWhat did you call me?â
âWife ah,â Lu Xiuhe scratched his head and asked, âThen what should I call you? Wonât call you husband, it sounds too girly.â
Zuo Zhenâs throat bobbed. âItâs fine if youâre happy.â
He took the red envelope, which had a thick wad of money inside. One look and he knew that Lu Xiuhe had put all his savings for food, drink, housing and other things into it.
âWhat to do?â Zuo Zhen raised his eyes and said in a deep voice, âI didnât prepare a red envelope for you.â
Lu Xiuhe froze and hurried to say, âItâs okay, I donât care about thatâ¦â
âI care.â Zuo Zhen said, âIâll have to repay you.â
Lu Xiuhe said, âAlright ba, donât put in too much. If itâs too much, I wonât accept it.â
Zuo Zhen said, âNot giving a red envelope.â
Lu Xiuhe was surprised. âAh? Then youâ¦â
He stopped mid-sentence.
Zuo Zhen took his hand, put it to his lips, and kissed his finger.
Lu Xiuhe thought Zuo Zhen was like a spider demon from the Cave of the Silken Webs, with the only difference being his gender.
Zuo Zhen smiled and said, âHow can a red envelope be enough? Iâll give you something better.â
Zuo Zhen was a demon, but Lu Xiuhe wasnât Monk Xuanzeng.
After they got to the hotel and did all the things they had done before, Lu Xiuhe lay comfortably on his back on the bed. As soon as he wanted to take a break, he saw Zuo Zhen open the cabinet, take out a condom, and tear open the wrapper with his teeth.
â¦â¦
Seeing that Zuo Zhen didnât have any intentions of lying down, and that he was pulling his legs apart again, Lu Xiuhe thought that Zuo Zhen was afraid of pain.
After doing it halfway, when he was in a bit of pain but also feeling good, he didnât forget to check in with his wife. âBabyâ¦. You-you still have a wound on your waist, are you okay ah?â
He pulled Zuo Zhenâs arm, turned over, and shyly sat on his leg. âHow about I give it a go?â
Because it was his first time, or because it was such a wild position, Lu Xiuhe dilly-dallied for a long time, not moving. Zuo Zhen was rubbed by him until his head was on fire, and simply pressed him back down into their original position.
He bowed his head and bit Lu Xiuheâs chin. âDonât worry⦠youâve taken enough care of the fucking.â
ââ
It was midnight by the time they finished. Zuo Zhen took a bath and was ready to go to sleep. As soon as he started to doze off, he found that the person he was embracing had suddenly moved.
He quietly opened his eyes and saw that Lu Xiuhe had his cellphone in hand. He was tearing into people on Weibo.
[Zuo Zhenâs little sweetheart: Itâs not even in the picture. you [horse head]. Zhenzhen has no girlfriend, thank you ð ! Making no moves to help reinforce your own boss, and only thinking every day about forming a CP and getting to the topâ That kind of material for traffic, I think your group of fans are also very interesting [bares teeth]. Here, attach the CP list youâve come up with for XX, and we can match it with the BGM of âThose years, the male stars we pasted ourselves to togetherâ.]
Zuo Zhen: ââ¦.â
After sending this sentence, Lu Xiuhe switched back to QQ and saw that the fan support group had just posted the pictures from Zuo Zhenâs airport meeting today.
[Zuo Family Army_Your Great Lord Lu: Ahhh, my husband is so handsome!!]
[Zuo Family Army_Your Great Lord Lu: I am willing!!!]
[Zuo Family Army_Your Great Lord Lu: awsl!!!]
Zuo Zhen: ââ¦.â
Lu Xiuhe was chatting when suddenly, he felt the hands on his waist tighten. The man behind him asked, âLittle sweetheart, are you having a good chat?â
Lu Xiuhe froze, and flusteredly put away the cellphone as he stuttered, âAl-alright ba⦠Not particularly good⦠Donât peep ahâ¦â
âYouâre picturing me in dirty situations and then not allowing me to look?â Zuo Zhen asked in his ear, âYouâre willing? How willing are you? Show me?â
[Support group member No.1: [Since Jiejie is willing, then Meimei is also willing.JPG]]
[Group member No. 2: Lolololol, Lulu itâs the middle of the night, donât be so flirty.]
[Group member No. 3: Whereâs Lulu? That person replied to you again!! Come on! Flame them!!]
