TLCBITAR Chapter 157

Chapter 157 Are You Even a Man?

Qin Yang calmly scratched his ear, then leaned close to Chen Qihang and asked, “My mom’s voice is a bit loud, did it hurt your ears?”

Qin Mama’s fervent gaze landed on Chen Qihang, who gave a dry laugh. “It’s okay, let’s go, I’m full.”

The two nodded in tacit agreement and stood up, heading towards the stairs.

“Hanghang, rest well, Auntie will make you a big meal tonight,” Qin Mama called out to their backs.

Chen Qihang turned his head and responded with a forced smile.

It wasn’t until they reached the third floor that his tense body relaxed.

“Qin Yang, be honest, did you and Auntie conspire!” Chen Qihang stood at the top of the stairs on the third floor, questioning him through gritted teeth.

Qin Yang grabbed his arm and led him to the door of the room before explaining in a low voice, “It’s a mother-son connection, not a conspiracy.”

Chen Qihang’s eyelids twitched wildly, admiring Qin Yang’s way with words, actually twisting a joint deception into a mother-son connection.

“You’re planning to spend the entire seven-day holiday at school?” Qin Yang pushed open the door and took his hand, pulling him inside.

Chen Qihang pulled his hand back, putting it behind his back, and stood rooted to the spot. He lowered his head, looking at the smooth floor, his voice a little lighter, “I bought an apartment near the school, it’ll be ready to move in a few months.”

Qin Yang was stunned for a moment, a bitter smile rising at the corner of his lips, “Why didn’t you tell me?”

He slumped his face, looking pitifully at Chen Qihang.

“The things you gave me, I’ve already packed them up. I’ll have them delivered to your house tomorrow,” Chen Qihang slowly clenched his fist behind his back, raising his head to meet his gaze, steeling his heart to say, “I kind of regret coming to your house. I didn’t expect your mother to be so nice to me, and I don’t want to deceive her. I should go downstairs and explain everything to her….”

He took a few steps backward, and seeing Qin Yang’s aggrieved expression, he pursed his lips and turned to leave.

It was best to leave such a private place as the room quickly. Qin Yang had ulterior motives towards him, and he couldn’t let him do whatever he wanted.

Rapid footsteps came from behind, and Chen Qihang shuddered, instinctively running. However, just as he stepped out of the door, his waist was clasped by a strong arm, pulling him back.

With a “bang,” the door was slammed shut.

His back crashed into a broad embrace, and Chen Qihang instantly bristled, struggling violently. “Qin Yang, don’t go too far! Let me go!”

Qin Yang leaned down, holding his waist tightly with both hands, and said hoarsely with his chin resting on his shoulder, “I don’t want to let you go.”

Thin lips brushed against Chen Qihang’s neck, causing a tingling, itchy sensation. He clenched his teeth, trying his best to pry open Qin Yang’s hands. “Let go first, don’t just go crazy!”

Qin Yang stubbornly said, “You came and now you want to leave, I won’t let you!”

Chen Qihang retorted, “I was tricked into coming here!”

Qin Yang released his hands, went around to face him, and leaned down to look him in the eye, his eyes terribly red. “Hanghang, ask yourself, don’t you have even a little bit of affection for me?”

Chen Qihang didn’t look at his eyes, and just as he was about to speak, his mouth was covered by Qin Yang’s hand. He said, “Look at me when you say it, don’t you have any feelings for me?”

Chen Qihang only glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, then immediately closed his eyes, muttering, “No feelings, don’t be so sentimental.”

“You don’t dare to look at me.” Qin Yang cupped his cheeks in his hands, his tone very aggrieved.

“Don’t play pitiful in front of me. Love isn’t something you can get just by crying. Don’t waste your time on me, I’m straight. I like goddesses. If you like my type, I can introduce you to someone similar, no, someone even better looking than me!” Chen Qihang rattled off a long string of words.

Qin Yang said in a deep and serious voice, “I’ve said it, I only want you.”

Chen Qihang opened his eyes, his eyes full of anger, and couldn’t help but retort, “Am I a commodity?! You can just have me if you say so!”

Seeing Qin Yang frown deeply, tears welling up in his eyes, Chen Qihang’s pupils shrank slightly, and he immediately shut his mouth, an inexplicable sense of regret rising in his heart.

He irritably pulled away Qin Yang’s hand and said unhappily, “Are you even a man?”

Qin Yang forcefully grabbed his hand and pressed it against his heart, saying in a muffled voice, “You don’t like me, so it hurts, it hurts so much that I can’t breathe, and I can’t help but want to cry.”

His expression didn’t seem fake, his long eyelashes drooping, wet with tears, looking very pitiful.

Chen Qihang frowned tightly, feeling like he was hitting cotton with a fist, weak and helpless.

Chen Qihang said with certainty, “You want to use crying to win my sympathy.”

Qin Yang raised the corner of his mouth, smiling bitterly, as if he had been abandoned. He raised his hand and gently stroked Chen Qihang’s face, asking with a sob, “Then do you sympathize with me?”

“You’re rich, live in a big villa, are talented and handsome, and healthy, what’s there to sympathize with you about?” Chen Qihang chuckled softly, slapping his hand away without hesitation, and lifting his foot to walk towards the door.

He opened the door and just took a step when he saw Qin Mama walking up the stairs.

“Hanghang, not sleeping?” Qin Mama stood at the top of the stairs, asking him with a smile.

Chen Qihang shook his head, “Not sleepy, Auntie, actually I…”

“Ah, since you’re not sleepy, I’ll take you to see something good.” Qin Mama quickly walked over, took his arm, and walked into the corridor.

Qin Yang walked out of the room to follow, but Qin Mama turned her head and glared at him. “I want to have a little chat with Hanghang, don’t follow us.”

“Mom, what do you want to do?” Qin Yang stopped, looking helpless.

“Oh, show Hanghang some cute photos of you when you were little.” Qin Mama curved her lips into a low smile, emphasizing the word “cute.”

Qin Yang’s heart skipped a beat, his face changing instantly. He lifted his foot and walked over, pulling Chen Qihang’s hand, ready to leave. “Don’t look, you’ll have nightmares if you look!”

Chen Qihang pried his hand away, smiling noncommittally. “So mysterious, it’s okay, I’m pretty brave, I’m not afraid of ghosts and monsters.”

“You stay over there, don’t come in and bother us.” Qin Mama waved her hand at her son, signaling him to stay in his room.

Seeing his Hangbao following Qin Mama into the study, he wanted to cry but had no tears.

“Crap, those eye-searing photos will really damage my handsome image.” He sighed and jumped back and forth at the door of the study.

Inside the study, Qin Mama pressed Chen Qihang to sit in front of the desk, took a large box of photo albums, and brought them one by one to Chen Qihang. “These are all photos of Yangyang when he was little.”

Chen Qihang tensed up, looking at the cute little mermaid on the cover of the photo album. “This little girl looks a lot like him.”

The little mermaid had a head of golden, waist-length curly hair, and her round, green eyes were filled with tears. Her entire little face was wrinkled into a ball, looking very pitiful.

She was wearing a sexy little suspender top, and her lower body was wrapped in a light green fishtail. At first glance, it was hard to tell if it was real or fake.

“Pfft, that’s Yangyang.” Qin Mama covered her mouth and chuckled, a hint of nostalgia in her eyes. “Yangyang looked like a doll when he was little. With a little makeup, people couldn’t tell if he was a boy or a girl.”

Chen Qihang coughed lightly and pursed his lips. “Very cute, you really can’t tell the gender.”

He opened the first page, and what came into view was Little Qin Yang in various little skirts.

It seemed that Qin Mama really wanted a daughter.

“Hanghang, Yangyang can be a bit domineering sometimes, he takes after me in personality, but his heart isn’t bad. I’ve never seen him bring anyone home before, nor has he ever been in a relationship. If he bullies you, tell me, and I’ll help you teach him a lesson.” Qin Mama gently stroked the photo album with one hand, her eyes full of tenderness as she looked at Chen Qihang.

“Auntie, actually, he and I… I…” Chen Qihang was at a loss under her gaze, wanting to tell the truth, but he couldn’t bring himself to say it.

Damn it, Chen Qihang, are you even a man! He wanted to slap himself at this moment, dawdling around.

“I know.” Qin Mama withdrew her gaze, looking down at the photo album. “Yangyang likes you very much, every time he comes home, he can’t stop talking about you.”

Chen Qihang was silent, his face flushed red, feeling a little embarrassed.

“Hanghang, rest here for a few days, just keep Auntie company, okay?” Qin Mama blinked her emerald green eyes, looking at Chen Qihang.

Chen Qihang hesitated for a moment before nodding.

However, he regretted it in the evening. Sharing a room with Qin Yang, a wolf who could go crazy at any time, was really dangerous!
