TWWMABMTBH Chapter 87

Ji Shu held the screaming chicken for a long time without reacting.

Rong Ziyan enthusiastically introduced it to him, “This is quite fun, it can sing a new song every time you press it.”

Seeing that Ji Shu was still in the same posture and not speaking, Rong Ziyan pushed him again, “It’s waterproof, you can take it into the bathroom, it can float in the bathtub.”

“Why don’t you try it?”

Ji Shu: “Do you have nothing else to say?”

Rong Ziyan thought for a moment, “Don’t play for too long, your body isn’t up to it right now.”

After saying that, Rong Ziyan really handed Ji Shu a clean towel and sent him to the bathroom.

Inside, the water in the bathtub was just filled by him, the temperature was a little hot, but it was very suitable for a cold-fearing person like Ji Shu.

Ji Shu took a deep breath, glanced at Rong Ziyan with despair, and lost all his mischievous energy.

Seeing that he was ready to take a bath, Rong Ziyan also very gentlemanly left the bathroom and considerately closed the door for Ji Shu.

Ji Shu changed his clothes, took a simple shower, and then soaked in the bathtub, staring at the screaming chicken.

A straight man is absolutely hopeless.

Outside the bathroom, the system was also accusing Rong Ziyan’s bad behavior, “Heavenly Path Daddy will be sad if you give the toy he gave you to a little gay.”

Rong Ziyan said expressionlessly, “When he had me draw it, did he not think I would be sad?”

The system was speechless.

A prompt sounded in his mind, [From Heavenly Path, depression value 10000]

Rong Ziyan immediately spoke again, “Heavenly Path Daddy, don’t be depressed, just give me an SSR.”

System: …What kind of impossible dream is this?

As expected, a prompt rang in his mind again, [From Heavenly Path, despair value 10000]

System: Rong, I advise you to calm down, if you keep exploiting like this, you probably won’t even draw an R in the future.

“Okay then!” Rong Ziyan sighed regretfully.

The system finally prompted, [From Heavenly Path, complex value 10000], and obtained the latest achievement [Damn! You unfilial son!]

Obviously, the Heavenly Path, which had been watching the screen, finally issued a warning to Rong Ziyan after being exploited twice.

Rong Ziyan also stopped while he was ahead.

The system suddenly remembered something important, “Host, the gold coin value is recently bursting, do you want to try a lottery draw!”

Rong Ziyan thought for a moment, “Wait, Ji Shu is still here.”

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to draw, but every time he drew, he might not get anything good. What he had before was still easy to explain, but if something new appeared, others could help cover it up. Ji Shu was so smart, and the Heavenly Path completing the cause and effect wouldn’t help. It was better to wait.

But other than the lottery, he still had other things to care about.

The village chief who cooperated with him in making boneless duck feet messaged him at night, probably to report on sales. And the salted duck eggs on the village side, he hadn’t checked on them for so long, Rong Ziyan had to take a look too.

Therefore, when Ji Shu came out after washing up, he saw Rong Ziyan holding an account book and calculating something.

“What’s this?”

Rong Ziyan pointed to the accounts on it, “Wife’s savings.”

Ji Shu was slightly stunned.

Rong Ziyan carefully calculated each item one by one.

The sales of salted duck eggs and boneless duck feet were much better than Rong Ziyan had initially planned. Especially the boneless duck feet, although it was only the first month, the income was quite substantial. In addition, the continuous dividends from the salted duck eggs, plus the scholarships, project awards, WeChat business profits, etc. he had received in the past six months, Rong Ziyan actually had more than 500,000 yuan in his hands.

And it had been less than a year since he obtained the system.

Perhaps to others, this amount of money would seem too little. But Rong Ziyan was already very satisfied.

Looking at the smile on Rong Ziyan’s lips, Ji Shu felt an itchy desire in his heart.

However, Rong Ziyan kept talking about his future plans, “My project is estimated to be completed by the end of the year. When the bonus comes down, there will probably be another small sum of money, and adding the dividends for the second half of the year, I guess I’ll have 700,000 to 800,000 yuan.”

“And then?” Ji Shu stared at Rong Ziyan’s face and asked subconsciously.

Rong Ziyan turned his head and looked at Ji Shu, “I want to buy a house.”

“Where do you want to buy?”

“Somewhere quiet, I guess.” Rong Ziyan said a little hesitantly, “Not too big, and not too far from both our workplaces. But it may not be realistic, after all, our workplaces are quite far apart.”

“How about a compromise?” Rong Ziyan opened the map of Beijing, and was actually planning to find a location.

So, Rong Ziyan was including himself in his future plans? Ji Shu’s mind heated up, and he held down Rong Ziyan’s hand, “I’ll move the company over.”

Rong Ziyan: “What?”

Ji Shu belatedly realized what stupid thing he had just said, and his ears instantly turned red.

Rong Ziyan rarely saw him embarrassed and couldn’t help but glance at him a few more times.

Now, Ji Shu was really flustered, and turned his head away from him.

“How are you so fun!” Rong Ziyan couldn’t help but laugh at him.

The low and deep laughter echoed in his ears, Ji Shu felt like his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

But Rong Ziyan wouldn’t let him go, he insisted on making him turn around to continue the previous topic, “Seriously, where is a suitable place for me to buy a house!”

Ji Shu’s mind was already a mess, and he just randomly pointed on the map.

But then he thought again, Rong Ziyan was a serious person, what if he just randomly did it and Rong Ziyan actually bought a place there?

Also, Rong Ziyan didn’t clearly state, what does it mean “a little closer to both our workplaces.” The more Ji Shu thought about it, the more ambiguous the words sounded, and he was itching to ask clearly.

Rong Ziyan pinched Ji Shu’s face, “Isn’t this what you wanted?”

Ji Shu was immediately stunned.

Rong Ziyan lowered his head to look at him, “For my sake, you didn’t even want your life, isn’t it all for this?”

“I didn’t!” Ji Shu immediately retorted, wanting to explain to Rong Ziyan that he never intended to use his kindness as a bargain.

But Rong Ziyan interrupted him, “Don’t worry, I’ve never liked anyone before, you have to wait for me to adapt.”

“There’s still plenty of time, we’ll take it slow, okay?”

Ji Shu stared blankly at Rong Ziyan, while Rong Ziyan reached out and hugged him, “Go to bed early, your body is not well, don’t waste your energy on these things.”

But Ji Shu suddenly pushed him away.

“What’s wrong?” Rong Ziyan was confused.

Ji Shu said in a low voice, “Rong Ziyan, you really don’t have to do this.”

“I won’t ask you to do anything, so, so it’s okay if you don’t respond to me.” Ji Shu said these words very weakly. If it had been the past him, he would have been used to following Rong Ziyan like a shadow.

A cold monetary transaction, the two of them drinking a pot of tea, Rong Ziyan wouldn’t say another word. Only when talking about the project would his tone change slightly.

At that time, Ji Shu was very used to this mode of interaction, because he knew that he was the closest person to Rong Ziyan.

So he cherished this time very much, even if Rong Ziyan would never respond to him, it didn’t matter. He was willing to stay by Rong Ziyan’s side and watch him step by step toward the altar. Even if Rong Ziyan got married and had children in the future, he could still adhere to his duty and not overstep his bounds.

But now, could he still do that?

He already knew how warm Rong Ziyan’s embrace was, and he had also experienced how soft Rong Ziyan’s heart was. He was greedily craving Rong Ziyan’s tenderness, wishing he could melt the person in front of him into his bones and blood. Could he really maintain his duty as in the past with such greed?

Ji Shu regretted his words as soon as they came out, but he stubbornly didn’t want to take them back.

Because Ji Shu found that, compared to the unwillingness and pain of not being able to get what he wanted, he hoped that Rong Ziyan could be without any constraints and could walk his own path and pursue his dreams.

Ji Shu’s gaze at this moment was too complicated, even with the system, Rong Ziyan couldn’t distinguish it clearly.

System: Is he going to cry again!

Rong Ziyan did not answer, but instead reached out again and hugged Ji Shu, asking him softly, “What’s wrong? Did I misunderstand you?”

“No.” Ji Shu shook his head.

“Then why are you unhappy?”

“No.” Ji Shu looked at Rong Ziyan’s eyes, and he was inexplicably a little aggrieved, “I’m afraid you’re unhappy.”

“I’m afraid you’re doing this to me because you feel I’m treating you well, and so you feel obliged.”

“Don’t be like that…” In Rong Ziyan’s patience, the emotions surging in Ji Shu’s chest finally found a breakthrough, all kinds of bitterness made his eyes turn red, and he kept muttering, “Don’t be like this, don’t make yourself feel so wronged, I can’t take it.”

Rong Ziyan listened to him, and after a long while, he revealed some helplessness.

He had indeed only recently learned of Ji Shu’s thoughts, and although he couldn’t respond immediately, he was serious about accepting and wanting to try to get along with Ji Shu, and there was no reluctance.

Although everyone had been asserting that he was a straight man, Rong Ziyan had never liked anyone, nor had he been in love. Whether he was attracted to men or women was something that even Rong Ziyan himself didn’t know.

As for Ji Shu, it must be said that his beauty was alluring. Even though he was a man, he often made Rong Ziyan unable to look away.

Rong Ziyan didn’t think this was superficial, but instead believed that it was a special manifestation of himself towards Ji Shu. There were plenty of beautiful men and women at the Agricultural University, and it wasn’t like Rong Ziyan had never seen the world, so he wouldn’t have been this swayed.

Sighing, Rong Ziyan hugged Ji Shu tighter, “Don’t cry.”

Ji Shu didn’t speak, he just looked up and stared at Rong Ziyan. His eyes, washed with tears, were especially bright, but the corners of his eyes were a distressed pink, making people unable to resist wanting to bully him.

Rong Ziyan put away the chaotic thoughts in his mind and carefully explained to Ji Shu, “I didn’t force myself.”

“You don’t have to feel like you are repaying a kindness. We are all adults, there are many ways to repay a kindness. Just like you, perhaps I saved you six years ago, but you didn’t necessarily have to use your own life to help me, right?”

“Ji Shu, I’ll ask you now, why did you take such a risk? The evidence I had at the time was enough to send the Zhou family to prison, right?”

Ji Shu didn’t want to say it, but in the end, he couldn’t resist Rong Ziyan’s persistence.

“To pull out the weeds and their roots.” Ji Shu lowered his head, avoiding Rong Ziyan’s gaze, “I was afraid that if I left old man Zhou alive, he would in the future…”

As if remembering something, Ji Shu’s face became extremely unsightly.

Rong Ziyan lifted his head, “So you designed this yourself?”

“…Yes.”

“Would you do this for someone else? If it wasn’t me who saved you back then, would you have done this?”

Ji Shu blinked, a bit unable to react.

Rong Ziyan gave an example, “If it was Old Wu who saved you back then…”

Ji Shu shuddered, “Of course not!”

Holding him back in his arms, Rong Ziyan chuckled softly, “Yes, me too.”

“Ji Shu, I don’t just let anyone sleep in my bed.”

Ji Shu pondered Rong Ziyan’s words, and after a long time, he suddenly looked up, “Are you saying…”

“Yes.” Rong Ziyan gave Ji Shu an affirmative answer, “Let’s try it!”

“Let’s try it with the premise of being together for a lifetime.”

Ji Shu was stunned for a long time, and finally threw himself at Rong Ziyan, burying his head in his shoulder, and whispered, “Okay.”

Rong Ziyan patted his back, suddenly feeling like he had raised a delicate and weak little lover.

And Ji Shu also took the opportunity to look up, the look in his eyes full of expectation as well.

Once the window paper is broken, isn’t the next step supposed to be hugging and kissing?

However, Rong Ziyan clearly didn’t receive the pink signal sent by Ji Shu. After thinking for three seconds, he pushed Ji Shu away and got out of bed.

Ji Shu: Could, could it be that he is going to get the legendary condoms?

Ji Shu’s heart was immediately filled with anticipation. Although it was a bit fast, he couldn’t wait to have a closer intimate relationship with Rong Ziyan.

However, when Rong Ziyan returned, he handed him a glass of warm water and the pills he needed to take for the night.

Large and small, there were quite a handful.

“You went to get this?” Ji Shu’s gaze at Rong Ziyan became unbelievable.

Rong Ziyan nodded seriously, “Yes! Old Wu said that you must take your medicine on time now, and can’t delay it.”

Ji Shu dejectedly finished the pills, and curled up into the blanket. Rong Ziyan thought he was sleepy after taking the medicine, and didn’t ask any more questions.

Therefore, on the first night after breaking the window paper, not only did Ji Shu not receive the sweet good night kiss from Dr. Rong, but he also had a head full of “Old Wu said.”

The author has something to say: Ji Shu: I’ll make Old Wu quit his job first thing tomorrow morning.

Old Wu: ???
