Chapter 79 - Reality (9) (2/2)

Bai Xi Xing was stunned. He suddenly became alert and whispered: “Do you suspect someone in the family trying to harm you?”

“No, it has nothing to do with them.” Bai Yi denied it. He answered, “I have some things to deal with. When everything is over, I will go see my parents.”

He revealed a cold smile and said in a low voice: “It’s payback time.”

“Do you need my help?” Bai Xi Xing asked.

“No need.” Bai Yi said, “If everything goes well, it will end soon.”

“Okay.”

Bai Xi Xing answered: “Tomorrow I will get someone to send over your new phone and documents. Now that you’re returning to society, it will be difficult without them.”

Having said that, he suddenly smiled and glanced upstairs. Cheng Zhi Chu was currently not in the living room and had gone upstairs to borrow Bai Xi Xing’s computer to contact his family and roommates. After all, it is now rather late, and it was better for him to spend a night here before returning to school tomorrow.

Bai Xi Xing sneakily opened the photo album in his phone and showed Bai Yi the photo he took earlier of Cheng Zhi Chu in a wedding dress: “How is it? Do you like it? I specially kept it for you. Tomorrow when your phone is here, I’ll send——-”

He hadn’t finished speaking when his phone was snatched over by Bai Yi.

“Your phone belongs to me now.” Bai Yi stared at the photo for a few seconds before quickly turning off the screen. He didn’t seem to want to let Bai Xi Xing look any longer.

“Fuck, stop joking around. Do you know how many things are stored in my phone?!” Bai Xi Xing cursed. “I promise I will delete the photo after sending it to you tomorrow. It’s useless to me even if I keep it!”

Seeing that Bai Yi wasn’t reacting, Bai Xi Xing gritted his teeth and threatened: “If you don’t return the phone, I will tell Cheng…….I’ll complain to your wife!”

“………..”

Bai Yi stared at him expressionlessly for a while. He then returned the phone without a word. Bai Xi Xing couldn’t tell if it was his threat that was effective or the fact that he was pleased when he said “wife”.

But anyway, Bai Xi Xing quickly hide his phone behind him and muttered: “You’re already an adult yet you’re still so narrow minded. I don’t even feel anything for Junior Cheng, why are you targeting me……”

“Really?” Bai Yi’s tone was very casual, “There is a saying. You have also heard of it——–”

“Nothing is more delicious than dumpling. I’m not a fool.” Bai XI Xing knew what he was going to say and quickly interjected. (notes: I don’t know what the saying means so I just translated it literally…)

The man finally no longer spoke. After a few seconds, he stretched his hand out again.

“Give me the phone.”

“What for?” Bai Xi Xing asked with vigilance.

“I want to see it again.”

Bai Xi Xing was speechless. He handed the phone to his cousin and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind. He said:

“Hey brother. Do you want to sleep together with Junior Cheng?”

“……….” Bai Yi’s movements stopped. He looked up at him.

“Today the housekeeper has just cleaned the rooms and all the sheets and blankets have been taken away. The new ones also haven’t arrived yet so………”

Bai Xi Xing said this slowly. At the same time, he glanced at his cousin and immediately got the answer just by looking at his cousin’s expression. He quickly went upstairs to clear away everything at the speed of light. He hid them in the storage room and locked the door.

………..

And so, when Cheng Zhi Chu came out after using the computer, he heard about this very unfortunate news.

“I’m really sorry about this Junior Cheng. Apart from my room, there is only one guest room that you can use. You can stay here tonight and just share a room with my cousin.”

Bai Xi Xing spoke in an apologetic tone: “It’s a double bed but the bed is wide enough for the two of you. I hope you don’t mind?”

“N-no need……I shouldn’t bother you so much.”

Cheng Zhi Chu said in a panic: “I can sleep in any room. The weather isn’t cold, so I don’t need a blanket.”

“You can’t. It gets pretty cold at night. You saved by cousin and are our benefactor. How can I let you do that?”

Bai Xi Xing said: “Cousin just returned so I also can’t let him do it. How about this? The two of you can sleep in a room each and I’ll go somewhere else to sleep.”

“No, I can’t trouble Senior like this…..…”

Cheng Zhi Chu quickly waved his hands. This proposal was even worse. How could he occupy the owner’s room?

“I want to sleep together with you Zhi Chu.” Bai Yi looked at him with a hint of disappointment. “Do you mind?”

“I-I don’t…….”

Cheng Zhi Chu blushed and answered in a quiet voice. But sleeping with Bai Yi was a huge test for his heart and will…….Perhaps he would even do something horrible to Bai Yi! How would he be able to face Bai Yi in the future?!

“Since cousin is willing, then it should be fine.”

Bai Xi Xing smiled and said: “It’s the same room as the one you stayed in last time. I———”

“Stayed in last time?” Bai Yi repeated his words.

“Cough.” Bai Xi Xing coughed. Internally he complained that this jar of vinegar seems to like to spill whenever, wherever. He quickly changed topics, “It’s late now so I’ll go sleep first. You should go rest early too.”

“En.”

Bai Ri responded. He looked at Cheng Zhi Chu: “Let’s go up?”

“……….Okay.” Cheng Zhi Chu responded with a guilty conscious. His footsteps hesitantly followed behind Bai Yi.

…………..

“Schhuaaa……”

The sound of water came from the bathroom. Bai Yi who had already finished washing up wore a robe and sat with his back leaning against the back of the bed and his legs stretched out. Using the remote, he flipped through the TV channels, but his attention was not on the TV at all.

After a while, the sound of water stopped. The person inside probably was half done and was now lathering on body soap.

The young man’s expression appeared to be indifferent, but his act of changing channels had unconsciously stopped. His eyes moved over to the door to the bathroom.

But unfortunately, this was not a hotel so there was no frosted glass door. Even a shadow couldn’t be seen through it.

It was only when the sound of water could be heard again that he removed his gaze and carelessly glanced at the TV screen. His eyes narrowed and his eyebrows furrowed. On the screen was a familiar face.

It was Ji Yun Xiao, and the content on TV appears to be a variety show. He was standing on the stage selecting a lucky audience member.

How could he just happen to stop on this channel….

Bai Yi pursed his lips. Just when he was about to change channels, he happened to see Ji Yun Xiao select an audience member. The camera gave a close up shot of the audience member. It was a young man with a beautiful and lovely face. It was Cheng Zhi Chu.

“………….”

The man’s face suddenly changed.
