PPS Chapter 49

Chapter 49: A Clueless Blockhead

Lu Eryin opened his mouth with disbelief, “What’s wrong with your friend?”

“I have a friend” = “It’s me.”

This was an iron rule.

Even stray dogs passing by knew it.

Gu Yusen, staring at Lu Eryin’s strange gaze, forced himself to say, “He has a younger brother who was adopted into his family, about the same age, and then he discovered that this younger brother is gay, and even trying to… trying to hit on him. What should he do?”

Lu Eryin naturally knew about the adopted younger brother in Gu Yusen’s family. Recently, this guy had been honestly going to school on time and obediently picking up a beautiful young man to go home, entering and exiting together. The school forum was almost bursting with CP shipping content.

Again, like I said,

Even stray dogs knew.

But he didn’t know that this little brother actually had designs on Gu Yusen. He thought it was just random shipping by outsiders, but it turned out there was real potential?

“Is it the younger… the younger brother who’s one year younger than your friend?” Lu Eryin suppressed the rising corners of his mouth with a serious face, his whole person looking somewhat distorted.

Gu Yusen nodded expressionlessly. Lu Eryin understood. So what if he saw through it? As long as he didn’t admit it, this friend was just a friend, not him!

A man’s gotta have his face!

“Okay, what does he mean now? Does he like him? Or does he find it troubling?” Lu Eryin was quite reliable when it came to serious matters. Knowing that this concerned his good brother, he should give him some serious advice.

“Troubling, not really, but… his brother is still young and doesn’t understand anything. How could he understand what feelings are?”

Even after noticing Chu Zhaoyi’s little thoughts towards him, Gu Yusen hadn’t taken it seriously. In his opinion, it was very possible that Chu Zhaoyi had imprinted on him like a chick and mistaken it for another emotion.

Only as time passed, he felt that this person was really a little different towards him. Until what happened last night, he realized that he needed to resolve this matter.

What if he kept neither rejecting nor accepting, and Chu Zhaoyi took his care for his younger brother as a response?

He didn’t like men, did he?

He should not…

“How is he young? He’s nineteen, an adult. Other kids have had three or four girlfriends by now. With our little brother’s face, why not change one every day?” Lu Eryin stroked his chin, and couldn’t help but sigh when Chu Zhaoyi’s face appeared in his mind. It was truly Nuwa’s graduation design.

“He’s young. What’s the point of talking about anything when you’ve just become an adult? Shut your mouth!” Gu Yusen didn’t want to hear these words and shot a glare at Lu Eryin.

“Ahem, so your… friend’s intention is to have his brother give up this idea, embark on the broad road of male-female love, and then maintain a normal brotherly distance with you?” Lu Eryin returned to the topic. He understood.

He had met Chu Zhaoyi a few times and wanted to say hello or something, but Chu Zhaoyi didn’t say a word when he introduced himself. Only then did he realize that the rumors on the forum about Chu Zhaoyi being aloof and arrogant were true.

When Chu Zhaoyi first entered school, Gu Yusen waited on him hand and foot. During that time, the forum was filled with CP shipping content. After all, Chu Zhaoyi’s appearance was there, plus Gu Yusen seemed to want to do everything himself, and even stopped going to bars as often.

But later, rumors slowly spread, saying that Chu Zhaoyi was aloof, too arrogant, and his roommates didn’t like him very much. Whenever they mentioned him, they were reluctant to say more.

Some passersby would also pop up and say that they had seen Chu Zhaoyi on the road, and after summoning up the courage to ask for his WeChat, Chu Zhaoyi didn’t even look at them and just ignored them without saying a word.

He looked like he didn’t take anyone seriously.

Because of this, the CP posts about the two of them gradually decreased on the forum.

“No!” Gu Yusen subconsciously refused, denying Lu Eryin’s words.

Lu Eryin looked at Gu Yusen with an expression that said: “So that’s how you are.”

Gu Yusen’s face darkened. Subconsciously, he didn’t want Chu Zhaoyi to keep his distance from him. He actually knew that the relationship between them was indeed much closer than other brothers, but wasn’t that because Chu Zhaoyi’s situation was special and he needed more care?

“Just… just let him give up this idea, don’t keep a distance.” Gu Yusen’s earlobes were faintly hot.

The relationship between good friends can also be like him and Chu Zhaoyi, right? Why not?

Lu Eryin was speechless. He didn’t understand how such a loving family like Gu’s parents could raise such a clueless blockhead.

Indeed, the name was perfectly chosen.
