Chapter 115 - Extra CP (Zuo Zhen x Lu Xiuhe)-Fool.
Edited by Noks
Lu Xiuhe’s mind flashed with a lot of ideas in that short minute.
But before he could catch hold of any of them, he had already gone and kissed the other person.
Zuo Zhen’s mouth contained the minty flavor from the milk tea shop, and was especially sweet. Pretty much at the moment he stuck himself onto him, Zuo Zhen opened his lips in a very cooperative manner, but he didn’t take the initiative, waiting for Lu Xiuhe to enter instead.
He had already gone this far, so the Great Lord Lu really had nothing to be a wuss about…
No, the Great Lord Lu was wussing out a bit right now.
The Great Lord Lu bumped his mouth against the other’s a few times, and then wanted to leave. His forehead lowered against Zuo Zhen’s cap, nearly knocking it off. The brim at the front had already been lifted, revealing a great mass of pink hair.
Although there were few people in the alley, it wasn’t completely empty. He had panicked and had been trying to get away because he had just heard some footsteps.
He instinctively started to raise his hand to block out Zuo Zhen’s face from any onlooker, but who would have known that Zuo Zhen would take action before he could.
Zuo Zhen was wearing a gray hoodie today. With crisp actions, he took off his cap with one hand and with his other, pulled up the hood of his hoodie over his head. Closely following this series of actions, he held Lu Xiuhe’s neck in one hand and pressed him forward, towards himself. His hoodie then covered both their faces, and he started kissing him again—— fr eewebn ovel.com
Lu Xiuhe’s eyes widened. He hadn’t expected Zuo Zhen to be so bold.
The footsteps coming from nearby were getting closer and closer, while the grinding and rubbing of the other person’s lips and tongue against his own were gentle and lingering.
Fuck, wasn’t this too fucking stimulating ba?!
Lu Xiuhe felt as if he was currently shooting a “Exposed in the Dark Alley.avi” file.
He heard the footsteps slow down, and unclear whispers soon followed after. Their tone made it seem that they weren’t disgusted, and instead sounded more curious and surprised.
He didn’t know what these people were curious about. He only knew that if Zuo Zhen was recognized, then he could only offer up his own life as penance.
So he could only embrace Zuo Zhen’s neck again and press his head down tighter, so as to hide those strands of pink hair in the front of other’s sight. This action deepened the kiss. In the eyes of those outsiders, with the current intensity of this kiss, who knew what would happen in the next second.
From the side, Lu Xiuhe heard someone draw in a breath.
By the time these onlookers left, Lu Xiuhe had already been pushed against a wall by Zuo Zhen.
Before he could stop him, he felt his jacket being lifted up rather suddenly, and only then did that familiar warmth return to his lips.
His heart leaped, and he quickly avoided Zuo Zhen’s lips as he said, “Don’t……”
“I just want to confirm something,” Zuo Zhen said.
“Confirm what?”
“Last time, I kept thinking that it felt really good touching you here.” Zuo Zhen’s voice was low as he felt Lu Xiuhe’s abs. He asked, “Did you train to build these?”
Zuo Zhen’s palm wasn’t delicate, rather, it was a little rough. It felt pretty special as it caressed his abs, and only after a few moments did Lu Xiuhe think that this wasn’t good.
If Zuo Zhen kept touching him like that, he was afraid that something else of his was going to stand up soon.
“No, maybe I got them from playing basketball and stuff regularly ba…” Lu Xiuhe asked, “Don’t you also have them?”
Zuo Zhen nodded, suddenly grabbed Lu Xiuhe’s hand, and pulled it down under the hem of his shirt, and then, in an ingratiating tone, said, “I have them oh.”
Internally, Lu Xiuhe said— Of course, I fucking know you do. I didn’t look through all those videos and photos carefully in this period of time for nothing.
He had just been about to take back his hand in refusal, but as soon as he touched Zuo Zhen’s abs, he couldn’t even utter any words of refusal anymore.
Holy shit.
It really did feel good to touch.
It was totally different from those little soft abs on his stomach. One touch and you would know that these were the real deal.
No wait&#k2026; How had they gotten to this segment of mutually comparing abs?
Lu Xiuhe quickly took back his hand. His eyes were still damp, and the base of his ears were red as he asked, “Don’t keep flirting&#k2026; isn’t your assistant still waiting?”
Zuo Zhen’s smile disappeared at this. He stared at Lu Xiuhe and asked, “What did you mean by kissing me just now?”
Lu Xiuhe froze. After that sudden burst of energy fizzled out, all that was left was a sense of shame. He said, “Then-then what did you mean by the several times before when you kissed me?”
“I kissed you because I liked you.” Zuo Zhen asked, “Do you like me?”
“Yes!” admitted the Great Lord Lu with a shy face.
“Since I’ve kissed you, I will be responsible for you.” Zuo Zhen’s throat moved. “What about you?”
“I-I will definitely be responsible for you too ah.” Lu Xiuhe said, “It’s not like I’m a scum man!”
“How will you be responsible for me?”
“How else can I be responsible for you?”
Lu Xiuhe, this person, possessed a bit of a one-track mind. For example, previously, when he had felt that he couldn’t like men, he could harden his heart several times and push the other person away.
Now that he had thought it through, his thought process was even more straight-forward. He said, “I’ll chase you bei.”
Zuo Zhen was stunned. Even with all of his prior calculations, he had never reckoned that Lu Xiuhe would say something like that.
He resisted his urge to smile and continued to frown while asking, “…How do you want to chase me?”
“Don’t know yet.” Lu Xiuhe scratched his head and answered sincerely, “When I go back, I’ll ask some of my dorm-mates who are good at doing that.”
Zuo Zhen thought that this person was really too pleasing to his eyes.
“Don’t go ask.” Zuo Zhen put his cap back on his head and said in a bewitching tone, “If you kiss me again… I’ll be yours.”
Lu Xiuhe—this king of tearing into people with words, this bronze ranked player in terms of dating experience—was directly tantalized silly with this sentence of Zuo Zhen’s.
It wasn’t his fault. He didn’t believe that if anyone else had been on this spot right now, they would have been able to resist Zuo Zhen’s words.
So he didn’t hesitate at all when he kissed him.
Lu Xiuhe had once been laughed at by his roommates, who had teased him by saying that he was 22 years old and leaving aside the fact that he was a virgin, he was even someone who was still saving his first kiss. They had even asked if he believed that he could develop some kind of love magic if he saved his first kiss until he turned 30.
He didn’t know if there was any love magic, but he had gotten and stored away the big gift of a kiss at 22. Now, he could even count being kissed until he felt great.
After a brief kiss that was just like a dragonfly skimming over water, he said, “Alright… Your assistant is going to go frantic waiting for you.”
“He went back,” Zuo Zhen said.
Lu Xiuhe was startled. “Went back? No, why didn’t he wait for you ah? Call him back quickly, or else once class starts up again, there will be even more people here.”
Zuo Zhen took out his cellphone and after playing with it for a bit, he said, “It’s turned off, maybe he waited too long for me ba.”
“Hey… Your assistant’s temper isn’t very good,” Lu Xiuhe said, “Then what do we do now ah?”
“I’ll wait for him in the street ba. He’ll come back to pick me up when he’s done being angry.”
After hearing this, Lu Xiuhe rolled up his sleeves and pulled out his cellphone while scolding, “How can you wait in the street… Fuck, what kind of garbage company is Peerless, giving you such a crappy assistant. Just watch me if I don’t end them, I’ll buy a trending search, and I’ll flame them until they see reason…”
“Don’t, it’s very troublesome to be in a trending search.” Zuo Zhen pressed his cellphone and slowly spit out a sentence, “How about you can take me away ba?”
Lu Xiuhe definitely couldn’t just leave this person on the street.
Those rough old men in his dorm couldn’t keep their mouths shut very well. Besides, he had just fought with Lao San over Zuo Zhen, so he couldn’t take him to his dorm.
It was even more impossible for them to sit in the coffee shop nearby. Just now, the waiter from before had already thought it strange that Zuo Zhen was covered up so tightly.
Ten minutes later, Lu Xiuhe opened the door to a room in the most upscale hotel near the school.
He said it was the most upscale, but it was actually not that great, though it was still better than the many other hostels near the school.
As soon as he entered the room, Zuo Zhen said that he was carrying the smell of the snail rice noodles on him and turned to enter the bathroom.
As soon as he closed the bathroom door, the cellphone in his palm vibrated. Zuo Zhen picked up the phone and looked at it. It was a text message from his assistant—
“Zhen Ge, what did you mean by calling me just now? Didn’t you tell me to go back to Jincheng first? You couldn’t have had something happen to you ba?”
“Where do you want me to pick you up? Aren’t you in the hotel right now?”
“Send me a period if something’s wrong! I’ll go back and save you right away!”
Zuo Zhen casually replied with a few words—
“I’m fine. It’s inconvenient to call right now, I’ll tell you about it later.”
——
Hearing the sound of the bathroom door opening, Lu Xiuhe raised his eyes and saw Zuo Zhen, who just had a towel wrapped around his lower body, stride out.
Zuo Zhen’s figure was famous in fan circles. He had wide shoulders, long legs, and excellent proportions. When he had clothes on, he looked like he was about to catwalk down a runway, and with clothes off, he looked like a model. Even his professional anti-fans would avoid this topic, otherwise a big “anti-manifesto” aimed at this topic would soon be flooded by comments from passers-by who loved perfect bodies.
So it’s perfectly understandable that I’ve gone silly for a while—was what the Great Lord Lu thought to himself.
By the time he came back to his senses, Zuo Zhen was already sitting beside him, and the sofa sank gently with his movements.
“Is there any smell left?” Zuo Zhen stretched himself out in front of Lu Xiuhe and said, “You smell me.”
“There isn’t any.” Lu Xiuhe’s heart was beating as loud as a drum, but his face was very calm. “You didn’t smell in the first place.”
The water from the ends of Zuo Zhen’s hair dripped onto his shoulder, making it feel a bit chilly.
“Zuo Zhen,” Lu Xiuhe called out to him, “I want to ask you something.”
Zuo Zhen leaned back, one leg hanging on the sofa as he leaned against Lu Xiuhe’s jeans. “En?”
“Why did you start to like me ah?”
Zuo Zhen’s eyelashes flickered. “Why are you suddenly asking this?”
Lu Xiuhe paused before replying, “Just… I think it’s pretty unimaginable.”
“It’s not unimaginable at all.” Zuo Zhen commented, “So unsure of yourself?”
Lu Xiuhe choked. No, no matter how fucking confident I am about myself, my pride is not inflated to the point where I could covet you ah.
Zuo Zhen laughed and suddenly asked, “Do you remember when we added each other as friends in the game?”
Lu Xiuhe really didn’t remember. He only remembered that when they had met, it had been Zuo Zhen who had sent him an invite for a game match first. At that time, he completely couldn’t recall as to when exactly he had added this friend.
He thought about it and then asked, “Mid year?”
“No.” Zuo Zhen said, “It was three years ago.”
Lu Xiuhe was stunned.
“Three years ago, I had just debuted, and a lot of people were cursing me out.” Even when speaking of such a past, Zuo Zhen’s tone was very calm. “At that time, whenever I thought I couldn’t continue on, I would play games to decompress. However, while playing, I actually ran into a fan of mine, their ID had my name in it.”
It was at this point that Lu Xiuhe finally recalled a slight impression of this incident.
He had played so many matches that he didn’t remember many such things. That match had left an impression on him because there had been two invincible big flamers in that game. He had been fighting in Summoner’s Rift for so many years and had rarely met someone who could curse someone out so much and then even get stuck in the same team as them.
At that time, these two flamers had united in cursing out the support in their team. This was for no other reason than the fact that the support was a fan of a male star, and had the name of the male star in their ID.
At that time, upon listening to the speech, it didn’t seem as if the male star had done anything despicable.The two flamers just caught on to something and said that he was a sissy and was ugly. They ranted for ten whole minutes, and cursed out the support until that person just stood in their spot without moving, as if they were crying.
Lu Xiuhe naturally couldn’t stand these people who possessed bad characters and had no sense of game spirit. He immediately fought with those two for a whole 30 minutes.
After the game, the support didn’t add him as a friend. Instead, it was the continually silent, not-saying-a-word jungler on their team who had added him as a friend.
He didn’t remember the name of that male star, but now it seemed like…
“You were the jungler—” Lu Xiuhe froze before continuing, “…dare I say you’re here to repay a debt of gratitude?”
“It’s not about repaying a debt of gratitude, I wouldn’t go that far just out of gratitude.” Zuo Zhen drew closer to him and said, “Back then, I just wanted to see what kind of fool would offer himself up to be cursed at for no reason at all.”
Lu Xiuhe paused before asking, “And then?”
Zuo Zhen chuckled and leaned over to kiss his neck. “Then I discovered that I like this kind of fool very much.”
He had thought at that time—Such a good fool, he couldn’t let this person cheapen himself over others.
First, use whatever methods possible to trick him into becoming his, and then they’d figure the rest out.
“Back then, you were just standing there and obediently letting people curse you out, weren’t you being a fool too?” Lu Xiuhe murmured to himself. He touched his nose. “Th-then let’s just say it’s two fools coming together bei.”
