Chapter 22 - What to Do, My Roommate and I Kissed, We Kissed, We Kissed, We Kissed (2/2)
“Senior, are you lacking in oxygen? Your ear is very warm.”
“What what what are you doing!” Wei Ru Song felt as though a small electrical current ran through the point where Xiao Nian was touching him, creating sporadic fireworks that shot straight into his brain, making him feel dazed. “I wore my headphones for too long! It’s nothing.”
Wei Ru Song pushed the back for Xiao Nian’s chair– Get lost! Returning Xiao Nian to his original position.
The relationship between Huang Fan and Xu Yang Sheng, amongst the four of them only Lin Wei was left unaware. Both Lin Wei’s character and mindset were both very conservative, Xu Yang Sheng always laughed at him saying he was suited for living in the previous century. When Wei Ru Song’s and Xiao Nian’s rumours were spreading, Lin Wei was the only one who never believed in them, not because of their close friendship, but because he thought that a guy would never like a guy. If Lin Wei knew that Huang Fan and Xu Yang Sheng were together, Lin Wei might have jumped off a building.
“The both of you, it’s time to disclose.”
A few nights before Valentine’s Day, Wei Ru Song invited Huang Fan and Xu Yang Sheng to the rooftop for a smoke behind Lin Wei’s back, his mission was to get information, in the dark and windy night, three gays hid on the rooftop and shivered in the cold.
“What’s there to disclose, it’s just,” Huang Fan was very cold, he took out his smokes for everyone. “Remember when we went to watch the fireworks display? To tell you the truth I wanted to invited Old Xu originally, so I lied to you guys saying I already invited a girl.” At this point Huang Fan was still flaunting, only to stop when he side-eyed the silently smoking Xu Yang Sheng. “Amongst the four of us Old Xu and I have known each other for the longest, this you also know, we’ve been friends even while in our mothers’ wombs.”
“Scram, if I had the foresight I would choose to be born a few days earlier than you, then I’ll ask your mother to abort.”
“Old Xu, no need to be agitated,” Huang Fan quickly stroked his feathers to calm him down. “Old Xu was my first love, but from young Old Xu had a glib tongue, it was only whether he wanted to discuss certain topics or not, he never had a lack of people next to him.”
“You didn’t have a lack of people either,” Wei Ru Song shook his head. “Don’t hide your own crimes.”
“I didn’t hide anything, I was happy with both guys and girls, I’m bisexual, I just wanted to explore, who knows if I would find someone suitable, but Old Xu and I were always hanging out with each other, it was also unbearable for me.”
“Fine, stop talking, let this all be my fault,” Xu Yang Sheng was starting to get angry, pointing his middle finger at Huang Fan. “You’ve never talked to me about any of this ok? You want to fuck my ass the whole time, when did I ever stop you? My dick is not for display, I’ve been very irritated recently, let’s not talk about feelings first, let’s just fuck ok? If you don’t please me I’ll still go find a girl.”
– Wow… So fierce? Wei Ru Song had knew them for about seven or eight years already, clearly it was easy to hurt each other when discussing their feelings…
“Ru Song just ignore us, I’m not a nice guy, neither is Fan the dog, just let us continue arguing between ourselves, let’s talk about you instead,” Xu Yang Sheng threw the cigarette butt on the floor and stamped it out with his slipper. “You keep feeling that we’re making fun of you, you’re just too close to the situation that you’re blind to its ongoings. My tongue is a little poisonous, but I really treat you like my brother, both Fan the dog and me both think that there’s something between Xiao Nian and you, it’s really fucking obvious, you’re only missing a declaration written across your faces.”
“Are you serious…”
Wei Ru Song had to reflect on himself.
“If you like him you have to tell him, don’t be like someone who behaves like Teddy, only after fucking then he confesses, it’s very insincere, you know that right?”
This statement was very pointed, Huang Fan’s skin was definitely praiseworthy for being so thick, Wei Ru Song felt that the atmosphere between Huang Fan and Xu Yang Sheng was very… dangerous, as though they were about to fight or fuck, he gratefully thanked them and ran away.
He could not even solve his own problems, he did not have the right to bother about other people.
This year for Valentine’s Day Venice Buffet Restaurant had prepared an event, there would be a 10% discount for couples, Wei Ru Song saw the sign on the entrance, his eyes lit up, he excitedly asked the host for a couple table, the host eyed them over and coldly said.
“Stop joking.”
“For what reason do you think we’re joking?” Wei Ru Song was angry. “We don’t look like a couple?”
“You don’t,” The host gave Wei Ru Song a side-eye glance, he looked at Wei Ru Song’s brandless clothes and saw a poor student, whereas the brands that Xiao Nian wore he had never seen them before, although Xiao Nian looked very classy, but there were also poor people out there who looked decent. “There are still normal seats available inside.”
“I’m not eating here.”
Wei Ru Song angrily pulled Xiao Nian along, walking away, only to hear the host muttering behind their backs.
“So young and so cheapskate, still acting as a gay couple to bluff people, how disgusting.”
“They’re really a couple,” A loud voice interrupted. “Are you looking down on homosexuality?”
Wei Ru Song suddenly froze, he turned around, it was really Chen Xuan Xuan, she was hugging the arm of a strange boy, that boy quietly told her to let it go, Chen Xuan Xuan ignored him and continued arguing with the host.
“I can testify that they’re a couple, shouldn’t you apologise to them?”
“Words don’t prove anything,” The host pulled the security guard over. “We’re also a couple, Xiao Li, come over, don’t you agree that we’re a couple?”
“Uh…” Xiao Li, a hostess, looked at him awkwardly. “Forget about it, maybe they’re really a couple?”
“No we can’t, there’s no conviction through the word of mouth,” The host was very insistent. “Kids these days with their horrible attitudes!”
“How are their attitudes horrible? A dating couple wants to have a meal how is it affecting you?!” Chen Xuan Xuan was furious. “Can your restaurant’s staff be of higher standards?”
“How are we not of high standards? Have we spoken any vulgarities? Also, we’ve never had homosexual couples before, who knows if they’re really a couple?”
Due to Chen Xuan Xuan’s loud voice, as well as the crowd at the entrance, together with a large number of passersby, unknowingly they were surrounded by an audience.
Wei Ru Song was frustrated, but yet speechless, at this moment Xiao Nian spoke up.
“Everyone can see for themselves, I’ll prove that we’re a couple.”
His voice still echoing, Xiao Nian kissed Wei Ru Song.
So it turned out that Xiao Nian’s lips were warmer than his, Wei Ru Song thought dazedly.
