Ch87.1 - Part-Time Job (1/2)

Zhou Sheng:【What did Satan say to you? Do you find me really annoying sometimes?】

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

Yu Hao:【How could that be? I love you so much I can barely stand it.】

Yu Hao turned around and looked into Zhou Sheng’s eyes. Zhou Sheng kissed him gently, his expression slightly sombre. Yu Hao thought that Satan’s words might represent the other side of Zhou Sheng being forsaken. While he sometimes hated himself, he was also afraid of hurting Yu Hao. Yu Hao thought that Zhou Sheng had always felt very conflicted before his confession, but looking at it now, it seemed that Zhou Sheng had been very careful every day after they had confirmed their relationship.

He wanted to protect his love with Yu Hao and was always trying to guess his thoughts. In the past, Yu Hao seldom directly spoke his mind. After he got together with Zhou Sheng, Zhou Sheng would always ask, “Can’t you be a bit more honest and face yourself head-on?” And thus under Zhou Sheng’s influence, Yu Hao gradually became more frank about his feelings.

On the contrary, Zhou Sheng was the one who often ruminated in silence during the month following the confession. Sometimes, he couldn’t tell if Yu Hao was angry or not and would always be a little anxious.

Yu Hao:【I think you’ve become a little dumb.】

Zhou Sheng:【How am I dumb? You’re dumb.】

Yu Hao laughed:【Actually you can just treat me like how you used to in the past.】

Zhou Sheng stopped typing. Yu Hao immediately sensed that Zhou Sheng might have misunderstood him, so he quickly explained:【I didn’t mean to return to how things were before we got together. I’m saying that even if you were like how you used to be, I would still be very happy. You’re too good to me, I’m a little scared.】

Zhou Sheng:【What are you scared of?】

Yu Hao:【Scared that you would exhaust all your enthusiasm, and that you’ll gradually stop liking me. You’re so outstanding, being with you is just like winning the lottery.】

Yu Hao could feel that Zhou Sheng was laughing. He was about to clarify further when Zhou Sheng pressed his phone down, made Yu Hao turn around, and held him tightly in his arms.

“Let’s get a room ba.” Yu Hao whispered into Zhou Sheng’s ear.

Zhou Sheng said in a soft voice, “Not yet, I’m worried that you’ll feel uncomfortable because of the pain.”

Yu Hao, “It’ll hurt no matter when we get a room……would it somehow not hurt if we keep delaying it?”

Zhou Sheng laughed again and whispered, “I’m already prepared, are you that eager? Ah?”

It was as if praising their partners too much would lead the other to become proud and complacent, and allow the other to hold the reins in the relationship. Jealousy could even arise in such an unhealthy relationship, and they could end up disparaging the other in order to feel better about themselves.

Yu Hao has always thought that Zhou Sheng was very handsome and outstanding — he was practically his male god. However, after enduring those days in conflict, he rarely expressed his admiration for Zhou Sheng. That wasn’t good. Yu Hao decided that from now on, he would speak frankly and show how smitten he was with his boyfriend, to let his boyfriend know how much he loved him.

“What do you want to eat?” Zhou Sheng said, “Food and sex are men’s greatest desires; we won’t get a room, but it’ll be the same if we have good food. I’ll cook for you.”

“I want to eat too.” Fu Liqun said from the opposite bunk, “Now only good food can heal me.”

Yu Hao, “……”

Zhou Sheng, “……”

Zhou Sheng got up in resignation. He went down for a morning run and then made his way to the vegetable market in the mountains to buy groceries. Mandarin fish in the rivers were starting to grow plump as they entered autumn. After he came back, he made boiled mandarin fish porridge with the electric rice cooker; it was incredibly fresh and sweet with a side dish of sweet and sour pickled cucumbers. Fu Liqun sighed, “I feel so much better now!”

“Get lost!” Zhou Sheng said, “I haven’t gotten even with you over how your alarm woke me up!”

After breakfast, Yu Hao received news from Xiao Yujun asking if he could help out today, so Yu Hao prepared to go out. Meanwhile, Zhou Sheng accompanied Fu Liqun to search for a part-time job. Xiao Yujun planned to prepare two topics before the end of the National Day holidays, so that after the holidays, once her editors examine them, she could start publishing straight away.

Yu Hao hadn’t expected to start work so soon, and there were things about this job that felt a little strange to him as well. He had no official position, no contract, no salary that was explicitly discussed with him; but it was impossible for Xiao Yujun to cheat him because he still had Huang Ting as a backer. And thus, Yu Hao held back from asking. I’ll see how long you can hold back for.

“In a relationship?” In the cafe, Xiao Yujun was pondering about the interview and saw the hickey on Yu Hao’s neck at a glance.

Yu Hao quickly pulled his T-shirt up. Xiao Yujun said, “That’s practically torturing single dogs to death. Does your wife have any objections to you working a part-time job during the holidays?”

Yu Hao said, “They asked me to come, it’s okay. You can be in a relationship if you want ma, Huang Ting’s a pretty good guy.”

Yu Hao wanted to casually help Huang Ting even if he wasn’t very good at this.

Xiao Yujun said, “What did he say to you?”

“Nothing.” Yu Hao’s combat ability was obviously lacking, “I just think that the two of you seem to have a pretty good relationship.”

“If you want to be a matchmaker, why not matchmake me with male god?” Xiao Yujun smiled, “There must be something fishy about this.”
