Vol 2 Chapter 16 (2/2)
Mai Ding obeyed and opened the door for the two strangers. He wasn’t very good with words when it came to people he didn’t know and likewise, the two looked at Mai Ding in confusion. But when they saw that Mai Ding was wearing An Ziyan’s clothes, they finally understood what was happening. The guy smiled at Mai Ding before proceeding into the house to look for An Ziyan.
“Yan, are you still sleeping?”
An Ziyan finally got up.
The blonde girl asked in perfect Chinese, “Where is Xiaosi?”
“Xiaosi? I dumped her a long time ago.”
Mai Ding was standing quietly in one corner, staring at the new guests. Are they An Ziyan’s friends? He always thought that his boyfriend had no friends. “I am Zhou Ge. This is my girlfriend, Ellen.”
“Mai Ding.”
Ellen looked at An Ziyan. “Is he yours?”
“Otherwise?”
Ellen eyes Mai Ding and then turning to An Ziyan, she continued, “It's hard to suite your taste”
Mai Ding could not take it anymore. “There are certain things you shouldn’t be mentioned out loud!’
Ellen pretended not to hear anything and continued to An Ziyan. “And my, my, what a temper.”
“Excuse me?” Mai Ding asked, flabbergasted.
An Ziyan got up and walked away, heading for the stairs to the second level of his home.
“Where are you going?” Mai Ding asked.
“Shower.” He replied nonchalantly.
“Are you just going to leave me here with these two?”
Ellen, in her princess-like att.i.tude, turned to Zhou Ge and asked, “Are we that dislikable, Xiao Ge*? My heart is broken.”
(* - something Chinese version of '~kun' from j.a.panese, used to call someone younger than you, she does this to appear cute)
“Shall I lick you where it hurts then, so that it can heal?”
“The two of you, stop being disgusting. If you want to continue with that, please get out.” An Ziyan barked.
“An Ziyan.” Mai Ding called out. His eyes were pleading to him not to leave him alone here.
“Didn’t you say you wanted friends?” An Ziyan coldly remarked.
Mai Ding was somewhat stunned by the fact that An Ziyan remembered what he had mentioned yesterday. He did, in fact, say that he wanted friends. But looking at Zhou Ge and Ellen… He didn’t want this type of friends. He couldn’t even see why anyone would want to be friends with them.
But whatever An Ziyan did was to ensure that Mai Ding would not be alone. This led Mai Ding to another conclusion: Heaven was not blind to bless him not with friends. Nor was Heaven kind enough to allow Mai Ding to spend his life with An Ziyan.
To Mai Ding, An Ziyan was Heaven itself.
