    Chapter 166: You’ve Been Acting Weird Lately

    Saturday arrived in the blink of an eye. Only Qu Minghui and Lin Sheng were in the dorm.

    After Qu Minghui lost weight, his snoring had lessened considerably. Hearing movement from the upper bunk, he instantly woke up, sitting up and watching Lin Sheng walk into the bathroom.

    He rubbed his blurry eyes, got out of bed, and walked to the bathroom door, asking, “Black Forest, you really won’t help me today?”

    Lin Sheng’s whole body tensed, and the sound of flushing water abruptly stopped. He quickly pulled up his pants, turned around, and glared at Qu Minghui, “Walking around without a sound, trying to scare someone on purpose?”

    Qu Minghui drooped his eyelids halfway, leaning against the doorframe, and muttered, “That’s too much. You’ve been avoiding me these past few days.”

    Lin Sheng shook his head, flushed the toilet, and walked out of the bathroom. He went to the sink and began brushing his teeth and washing his face.

    Seeing that he wasn’t paying attention to him, the resentment churning inside Qu Minghui grew stronger and stronger. “Honestly, are you jealous that I lost weight and am better looking than you, so you have a problem with me?”

    Lin Sheng spat out a mouthful of foam, almost choking to death. He raised his eyes and looked at Qu Minghui’s resentful-woman appearance in the mirror, saying with foam still in his mouth and slurred speech, “You can ask anyone to judge, who’s better looking.”

    “I’m not arguing about that with you. I send you messages, and you barely respond. Are you in love?” Qu Minghui moved closer to him, blinking his slightly larger eyes, asking curiously.

    “I’m constantly bothered by you, how would I have time to be in love?” Lin Sheng glanced at him, with a strange restlessness in his eyes.

    Qu Minghui bit his lip, his eyes stinging. “Oh, so I’ve become a stumbling block for you now. I’m really sorry.”

    He pursed his lips tightly, quickly returned to the bed, and kicked the stool in anger.

    “Ouch!” A sharp pain shot from his toes, and he squatted down, clutching his foot and wailing.

    Seeing Lin Sheng walk over, he snorted softly, stood up, didn’t look at him, and muttered, “Looks like our brotherhood is about to fall apart.”

    Lin Sheng’s face was dark, but because of his dark complexion, he looked even darker. “What do you mean?”

    Qu Minghui walked to the closet in a few steps, opened the closet, took off his clothes as if no one was there, and took out newly bought clothes to put on.

    “After you get a girlfriend, won’t we have to split up? You’ll eat with your girlfriend, and I’ll walk around the playground with my girlfriend.” Qu Minghui closed the closet door and styled his hair in front of the mirror.

    “Where are you going to get a girlfriend?” Lin Sheng simply sat on his bed, crossed his legs, and stared at him with his dark eyes.

    “Tonight, I’m asking my goddess out to confess, maybe she’ll agree.” Qu Minghui grinned, smiling like an idiot, a faint dimple barely visible on the left side of his mouth.

    Lin Sheng pursed his lips, shifted his gaze, and his voice became a little colder. “If you haven’t woken up from your dream, you can continue sleeping.”

    The smile on Qu Minghui’s face instantly disappeared, and he said with a complicated expression, “Here it comes again. You’ve been acting weird lately. Do you just hate the idea of me having a girlfriend that much? Or hate the idea of me losing weight!”

    Lin Sheng looked him up and down. “You’re the same whether you’re fat or thin. You only eat that tiny bit every day to lose weight, aren’t you afraid of getting low blood sugar?”

    “You’re worried about me?” Qu Minghui smiled again, his eyes curving into crescent moons.

    A strange emotion rose in Lin Sheng’s eyes. He sighed, stood up, took the phone from the bedside, and muttered, “I have something to do, I’m going out first, do whatever you want.”

    He opened the dorm door, and just as he took half a step out, Qu Minghui suddenly said, “Lin Sheng, do you like me?”

    Lin Sheng’s hand trembled, and his other foot caught on the doorframe, almost causing him to fall. He turned around, glaring at Qu Minghui fiercely, “What nonsense are you talking about?!”

    Qu Minghui let out a soft “tsk”. “Just kidding, your reaction is really big. Didn’t we try it before? Since we’re both straight men, don’t hold back some things, say what you want, ask what you want. So, what are you being awkward about? Your behavior really seems like you’re jealous. You don’t like me confessing to my goddess? You don’t like me losing weight and getting a girlfriend? Is it because… hey, hey, hey… don’t go!”

    The door was slammed shut by Lin Sheng. Qu Minghui shook his head and sighed, “He really can’t take a joke, such a stubborn temper.”

    He took out his phone and sent a message to Zhou Zhou.

    [HuiHui: Zhou-ge, I’m counting on you tonight, you have to call out my goddess, okay.]

    A few minutes later, Zhou Zhou replied.

    [Zhou Xiaozhou: Your confession target can be changed, give up. (Picture)]

    Qu Minghui casually clicked on the picture. Su Wanxing and a handsome, unfamiliar man were sitting in a Western restaurant having dinner, her face filled with a sweet smile.

    His heart suddenly shattered into pieces. His dream lover had ultimately fallen into the arms of a diamond bachelor.

    He slowly replied to Zhou Zhou.

    [HuiHui: Where did you get the photo? Tell me, this must be fake! (Crying)]

    [Zhou Xiaozhou: That man is Pei Yanlie’s cousin, the CEO of an entertainment company, with assets of over a hundred billion. You should just quietly be a beautiful man.]

    [HuiHui: I’m suddenly so devastated, I even feel like going on a hunger strike.]

    [Zhou Xiaozhou: The goddess is the white moonlight of many male compatriots, only to be admired from afar and not to be profaned. Look at the person next to you, he’s pretty good, why don’t you consider him?]

    The corners of Qu Minghui’s mouth twitched. There was no need to ask who this “person next to you” was.

    [HuiHui: I’m very straight, there’s no doubt about that.]

    [Zhou Xiaozhou: I’m also very straight, there’s no doubt about that either.]

    [HuiHui: I know you used to be very straight, but that was in the past. You now, hehe.]

    Zhou Zhou tilted his head to look at the handsome sleeping face of the man, complaining, “If it weren’t for Pei Yanlie, I could have been straight for the rest of my life.”

    Pei Yanlie opened his deep eyes, tightened his arms, and pressed the person tightly into his embrace. “What are you muttering about?”

    Feeling the energetic Pei-shidi, Zhou Zhou remained motionless, closed his eyes and continued to sleep, murmuring, “I’m talking in my sleep, I’m so sleepy, don’t hold me.”

    “Really sleepy? Who was it who was playing with their phone with their back to me just now?” Pei Yanlie’s slender fingers fiddled with his waistband, slowly wandering.

    Zhou Zhou pressed down on his restless hand with one hand, his voice weak, “I’m so tired, so sleepy, shut your mouth, don’t talk.”

    [Pei-shidi, count how many bad things you did last night.]

    Pei Yanlie whispered in his ear in a hoarse voice, “It won’t talk, I’ll tell you. Last night it looked in the mirror with you in the bathroom, went for a night swim in the pool, and watched the stars and moon on the terrace.”

    [So many scandalous things, aren’t you afraid of your mom finding out? Your parents live in the villa next door!]

    “That’s right, next time I’ll take you to the basement, there’s a big bed there.” Pei Yanlie replied meaningfully.

    [Don’t think I don’t know there are also chains, you’re really perverted, what do you want to do?]

    “Baby, you’re asking a question you already know the answer to.” Pei Yanlie turned slightly, pressing even closer to him.

    Zhou Zhou’s pupils suddenly contracted, and he turned back to glare at him fiercely, “So much pent-up heat, aren’t you afraid of burning yourself dry?”

    “With you here, I won’t.”

    [Scissors are ready.]

    Pei Yanlie: “Are you willing?”

    “Pei Yanlie, shut your mouth.” Zhou Zhou scolded softly.

    Pei Yanlie put his face to his neck and took a deep breath, hugging the person securely and closing his eyes, “Sleep, I won’t tease you.”
