Chapter 79 (END) - Wu Tong X He Shuo (2/2)

Sure enough, it was just as he had thought. In the evening, there were crowds everywhere and the light festival was extraordinarily lively. When Wu Tong stood next to him, he still subconsciously wanted to protect her from getting hit by the crowd. He Shuo was a little surprised by those natural actions of his but he continued to maintain a calm expression while he protected her. There’s no need to let Wu Tong get hurt just because of a small conflict between them.

He clearly didn’t know what kind of unspeakable secret his girlfriend is hiding from him, but he still stubbornly protected her. He Shuo felt that he really is stupid.

When they returned to the hotel, Wu Tong opened his mouth several times wanting to talk to him but after they left the group, He Shuo naturally increased the distance between them and didn’t give her any attention. After several failed attempts, he seemingly accepted defeat and remained quiet.

For an entire night, they didn’t speak a word.

The next morning, when He Shuo opened his eyes, his mind was still not completely awake. He looked blankly around the room as he slowly remembered where he was. Suddenly, a large patch of snow-white skin, a beautiful arc of the back and a slender waist came into view………

Wu Tong was changing clothes!

When He Shuo realised this, his heart leapt. In an instant, he wanted to look away but the second before he could do that, Wu Tong had slowly turned around and he saw a flat front.

He Shuo had forgotten to look away and was shocked by the unbelievable scene.

Short hair, flat chest, smooth and prominent muscles and below his waist…..

This was a man who looked exactly like Wu Tong.

He Shuo laid in bed and was caught off-guard when their gazes met.

Without even needing to think, he knew that it would be impossible for a man and woman to look exactly the same with not a hint of difference. Even if they were twins, they would look different. There was only one explanation for this man standing before him.

The air went stagnant for a few seconds.

He Shuo: “You’re a man?”

The man nodded.

He Shuo: “This was what you were hiding from me?”

The man again nodded.

He Shuo released the tight grip of his blankets and got out of bed with a cold expression. He washed up, changed and then left the room. Throughout the whole process, he didn’t give a single glance in Wu Tong’s direction. Wu Tong also didn’t chase after him or ask him to stay.

After a long period of time, the two didn’t meet. He Shuo’s dense roommate also noticed that something was wrong. He asked: “What happened between you and your girlfriend? A fight?”

The roommate wanted to ease his mood and joked: “Don’t tell me the other person discovered your bad skills and you ended up hurting her?”

Another person smacked him: “How can that be? Our He Shuo is a good child. How can he do that to his girlfriend?”

“You guy’s should stop talking about those things. It’s his business so he will deal with it himself. But He Shuo, seeing you acting like this, it’s obvious you still have feelings for her. Why don’t you talk to her to clear things up? You’ll be the one regretting it in the future. I’m giving you this advice as a brother. You can see as you fit.”

In fact, He Shuo really didn’t know what to do.

In the past he really loved her, but now he is troubled.

To be honest, when he found out that Wu Tong’s secret wasn’t the fact that she had another guy, a part of him was elated. Even he was surprised by this reaction of his and he later scolded himself for being stupid. Your girlfriend just turned into a boyfriend. This is a huge problem okay?! What are you feeling elated for?!

After they left the hotel, He Shuo only received three messages from Wu Tong. Compared to the previous messages from before, these messages were more concise, upset and desperate.

“Ah Shuo, are you angry?”

“Do you want to break up with me?”

“Don’t break up okay? Please.”

Even if it wasn’t a voice message, He Shuo could tell how desperate he was through those words.

As for the thing about Wu Tong being a man, in fact, He Shuo didn’t really care about that. What he was more concerned about was why Wu Tong would deceive him. He hated being lied to. But really, if Wu Tong and he were both men, if you asked him whether he would be willing to continue being together, he wouldn’t be able to answer immediately. His decision would depend on what he cared more about. Wu Tong was special to him. He had already surpassed everything and all he cared about was the person called Wu Tong. But he was deceived from the very beginning and he was shocked by this discovery, so he didn’t know how to face Wu Tong. Like this, he kept dragging things out and he never sent back a reply.

This kind of negative emotion enveloped him and, seeing this, his roommates complained about him acting like life no longer had any meaning. They even started discussing about the difference between a man and a woman after breaking up. With He Shuo acting like an empty shell, Wu Tong’s side would probably start off with a storm of crying, but she would soon recover from the sadness and continue on with life. They said this trying to convince He Shuo to cheer up.

But He Shuo maintained this state until one day he received a call. Through the phone, he heard Xu Jun’s voice.

“Hey, he’s drunk. Keeps calling your name. So annoying. I’m leaving him here so you should hurry and come over.”

After leaving the address, he didn’t give the other party a chance to refuse and immediately hung up.

After hesitating for a while, He Shuo still went.

When he arrived, he saw Wu Tong wearing men’s attiure and looking stunning, but he laid sprawled pathetically across the table. His consciousness wasn’t clear, and his face was flushed red from the alcohol. He looked like a poor and innocent puppy that was abandoned by its master.

He Shuo picked the man up and carried him out. Because he didn’t know where Wu Tong’s place was and he couldn’t find Xu Jun, he could only bring him over to a nearby hotel. Xu Jun who sat in the corner quietly observing them saw him take the other person away and scoffed. After a few more drinks, he felt bored drinking by himself and also left.

What was fortunate was that despite being drunk, Wu Tong could still be considered rather well-behaved. He didn’t act crazy and only mumbled incoherently. He Shuo leaned in to try and decipher his words and realised that he was constantly repeating and apologising.

“Ah Shuo, I’m sorry….”

He Shuo pursed his lips. He opened the room to the hotel room, dragged the other person inside and threw him onto the bed with much difficulty. Although Wu Tong was a little shorter than him but, as someone who is one metre eighty, he was not light. In addition, he was drunk and didn’t know to cooperate, so it made the task very difficult.

Wu Tong clung onto him like a koala, unwilling to let go. He continued to protest vaguely when the other person tried to pry him off. The warm alcohol filled breath could be felt on his neck and this made He Shuo stiffen up. His neck felt itchy and the places where Wu Tong touched felt hot. His heart pounded helplessly fast.

After a moment of distraction, He Shuo didn’t know what happened but the next second, he found himself being pressed down onto the soft bed. On top of him was a warm body that was covered in the smell of alcohol.

Wu Tong’s face was very close to his. It was also at this moment that He Shuo realised that the other person had already sobered up significantly and had taken this opportunity push him down.

“I want to kiss you.” Wu Tong’s voice was low and hoarse. Within those words were strong desire and emotions. He took the risk and very straightforwardly expressed his thoughts. The next second, his tone softened down and became humbler. Without a lack of confidence, “I beg you. Okay?”

He Shuo looked at him and didn’t speak. And then, he didn’t know what came over him – perhaps it was because of the sadness in his eyes making him feel bad, he lifted his head up and kissed Wu Tong’s lips.

Wu Tong stiffened up at this before responding vigorously by sucking his lips. It was so fierce that it was as if he wanted to absorb He Shuo into him.

An unknown amount of time passed, and their lips finally parted. Wu Tong lightly pressed onto his lips and asked carefully: “………Have you forgiven me?”

There seemed to be a hint of trembling in his voice that made He Shuo feel uncomfortable.

He Shuo looked at him seriously and said, “Yes, I like you.”

Because I like you, I don’t care if you’re a man or a woman.

He Shuo had decided. Before, he didn’t think over things properly. Even if he is not a girlfriend, he likes him so they can still be together. He could still pamper him the same and he didn’t need to think too much about it.

He wants to spoil Wu Tong. Later he would realise that he would end up being spoiled more instead.

The two insecure boys cuddled closely together and unexpectedly found it quite fitting.
