GLIHBN Chapter 60
by VolareAfter Su Shi finished eating, Song Qingyan immediately dragged him upstairs, clearly having some private things to discuss.
Chi Ye and Qiao Yu were left downstairs, looking at each other.
Su Shi felt guilty. Song Qingyan advanced, and he retreated, until Song Qingyan cornered him on the sofa, leaving him no escape.
Song Qingyan was full of imposing manner, with one leg on the sofa, leaning forward and staring straight into Su Shi’s eyes, “You two have something going on!”
Su Shi put on a show of strength, saying, “Who? What’s going on?”
Song Qingyan said, word by word, “You, and, Chi, Ye.”
Then added, “Definitely something’s going on. Confess honestly.”
Su Shi swallowed, stammering, “He, he confessed to me.”
Song Qingyan didn’t seem too surprised, “Just that?”
Now it was Su Shi’s turn to be surprised, “You’re not surprised?”
“Tch,” Song Qingyan said, uninterested, “I sensed early on that this kid’s feelings for you weren’t that simple.”
Su Shi’s expression was as if he’d swallowed a fly, indescribable, “When did you feel that? Why didn’t you tell me?”
Song Qingyan gave him a faint glance, “You were passionately in love with Xu Chongming, I didn’t want to say anything, lest you accuse me of ruining your relationship.”
Su Shi chuckled awkwardly, “Your eyes are like a ruler, impressive, impressive.”
Song Qingyan keenly smelled something unusual in this high praise, looking at Su Shi with increasing eagerness, making Su Shi feel a chill in his heart, and he couldn’t help but shrink back further.
“Wha, what?”
“Tell me, did something happen between you and Chi Ye? Otherwise, why do you look a little guilty?”
Su Shi met Song Qingyan’s gaze, arguing, “I’m not!”
“Not? Are we still friends?”
Su Shi was forced, and also couldn’t sort out the relationship with Chi Ye, wanting to hear Song Qingyan’s opinion, so he told everything.
“I went to Dongsu on a business trip, he followed me, he took a drink for me, and then we…”
Song Qingyan’s eyes lit up instantly, not waiting for Su Shi to finish, he began to boldly guess, “Did you do it?”
Su Shi was choked by his bold statement, his face flushed red, neither admitting nor denying.
Song Qingyan’s eyes lit up even more, “Who was on top, who was on bottom?”
Su Shi was truly defeated, Song Qingyan was too direct for comfort, stammering, “Didn’t get to the last step, but used other methods.”
Oh my god, too embarrassing. Su Shi couldn’t go on.
Song Qingyan silently lowered his head and looked at Su Shi’s legs, then raised his head again, joy appearing on his brow, and excitedly patted Su Shi.
“Su Shi, you’re something! I was worried that you’d be devastated by Xu Chongming’s betrayal, but I didn’t expect you to have a new situation so quickly, good for you, piss off that Xu guy.”
Plans can’t keep up with changes, and changes can’t keep up with unexpected situations. Su Shi had suffered a heavy blow once, and he really didn’t plan to develop a new relationship so quickly.
Chi Ye was that unexpected situation, barging in, Su Shi wasn’t prepared at all.
“It was an accident with Chi Ye, he drank a drink with something added to it, I was saving him.”
Su Shi truthfully told Song Qingyan that he wasn’t as promising as the other party said.
Song Qingyan had a “Do you think I believe you?” look on his face, squeezed to Su Shi’s side and sat down, putting his arm around his shoulder.
“The observer sees more than the player, you don’t actually dislike Chi Ye, do you? If it were someone else, you’d definitely send them to the hospital, you wouldn’t sacrifice yourself.”
Su Shi was choked, he had never thought about this assumption.
At the time, he had thought about sending Chi Ye to the hospital, but Chi Ye called out a few more times, and his heart softened.
It seemed that towards Chi Ye, Su Shi could never be ruthless.
Whether it was at the hotel in Dongsu, or now making an exception to let Chi Ye stay at home.
Su Shi’s silence made Song Qingyan even more certain, “Don’t think so much, you and Xu Chongming are over, it’s his fault, not yours, it’s normal for you to start a new relationship now.”
But Su Shi seemed to have touched some switch, waving his hand in denial, “No, no, I can’t be with Chi Ye.”
“Why? Just because he’s Xu Chongming’s cousin?”
“Yes and no.”
Su Shi held his head.
Song Qingyan ruffled his hair, “If you can’t figure it out, don’t think about it, let it be.”
That was the only way, there was no better way, Su Shi slowly released his head.
Downstairs, Qiao Yu was calling, “Qingyan, it’s late, let’s go back.”
Song Qingyan shouted back, “Coming, coming.”
Su Shi patted him, “Go back.”
“Yeah.” Song Qingyan added, “Tonight you and Chi Ye, just two men alone…” Then he raised his eyebrows, the meaning behind it for Su Shi to understand himself.
“Don’t talk nonsense, it won’t happen.”
The two came downstairs, Qiao Yu and Chi Ye stood in the living room, looking at them together.
After seeing off Song Qingyan and Qiao Yu, the house returned to silence.
“It’s not early, rest early, you can still sleep in the same room.” Su Shi said.
“Okay.”
Su Shi prepared to go upstairs, but Chi Ye grabbed his arm. Su Shi didn’t turn his head, saying, “Chi Ye, rest first, we can talk about anything tomorrow.”
Chi Ye released Su Shi, Su Shi took a step up the stairs, hearing Chi Ye’s voice from behind.
“I know you can’t accept me yet.”
Su Shi paused.
“I forced you too quickly, I won’t do it like this again.”
Su Shi’s throat bobbed.
Chi Ye continued, “But I only want one chance, a chance to pursue you, can you not treat me as a younger brother or a friend, but treat me as your pursuer.”
“Can you? Su Shi.” His tone was full of longing.
Su Shi took a deep breath, “Okay.”
“I’ll leave tomorrow, go back to my own home, I won’t make things difficult for you anymore.”
Su Shi turned his head, hesitatingly asking, “Can you manage on your own?”
“It’s not easy to shower, I can not shower. Can’t write, I can ask the teacher for leave.”
Su Shi certainly didn’t agree, “No, you got hurt for me, I should take care of you, and I can take you to school.”
Chi Ye’s eyes were filled with smiles, “Okay then, you said it.”
Su Shi suddenly felt tricked, “You…”
“Su Shi, I like you much more than you think, don’t doubt that.”
Su Shi hadn’t doubted it, but he couldn’t accept it yet, he wasn’t ready.
Putting aside Chi Ye’s identity as Xu Chongming’s cousin, Chi Ye was still young, still a student who hadn’t graduated, full of uncertainty.
And what Su Shi had always wanted was a long-lasting relationship without accidents.
“What about you, what do you feel for me?”
He said he wouldn’t force him, wasn’t this forcing him?
“Sleep first, let’s sleep.”
Su Shi fled in disarray.
Returning to the room, turning off all the lights, he burrowed into the quilt, covering his head, as if this way, he could be a turtle, safely shrinking into his shell, temporarily not having to face reality.
The night was as dark as ink, the moonlight as silver, quiet and far-reaching.
Su Shi stayed in the quilt until he couldn’t bear it anymore, then crawled out, coming into contact with a large amount of air, as if reborn, breathing deeply.
