However, Shao Cheng didn’t hit him; he made a phone call instead.
“Hello, Dad.”
“Hey, what’s up? Your mom and I are out for a walk.”
Shao Cheng switched to speakerphone mode, and Bai Yang looked puzzled, not understanding why he suddenly called his parents.
Shao Cheng’s gaze was deep as he spoke into the phone, “I’m bringing my partner home this weekend.”
Bai Yang’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Sure, it’s about time you brought them home,” Shao Guokang said cheerfully.
“Yeah, you remember their name, right?”
“Of course! How could I forget? And their name is easy to remember—Bai Yang.”
“Are they a guy or a girl?”
“What does it matter, kid? For us as long as you’re happy, we have no objections.”
“Just answer the question.”
“He’s a guy! We really don’t mind! It’s the modern age.”
“Alright, it’s fine now. Goodbye, Dad.”
“Hey, you—” Shao Guokang didn’t finish his sentence before his son ruthlessly hung up the phone.
Shao Cheng looked coldly at the stunned Bai Yang and said, “What else are you worried about? Tell me, and we’ll solve it together today.”
“But how could…” How could Shao Cheng’s parents know about their relationship, and how could they accept it so easily? His mind was a jumble of confusion and astonishment.
“My parents are in the medical field. They know that being gay isn’t an illness. They’ve seen life and death a lot and have long since become accepting. They told me before that they wouldn’t interfere with who I choose to be with. I told them about us when I went home during the winter break.“
Various subtle clues from the past gradually surfaced in Bai Yang’s mind. His chaotic thoughts became clear, and he remembered Shao Cheng saying he had something to take care of during winter break. He recalled the words of the driver and the way Shao Cheng had teased him when he mentioned visiting his dad to thank him…
It turned out that all the obstacles he had worried about had already been swept away by Shao Cheng.
Shao Cheng’s voice was low. “Do you trust me now?”
Bai Yang was moved to the point of not knowing what to say. He nodded with a mixture of shame and guilt. “I’m sorry…”
He had underestimated Shao Cheng’s level of seriousness. He had foolishly believed that under the influence of reality and temptation, Shao Cheng might choose to abandon him. But Shao Cheng had silently paved the way for their future. Bai Yang felt a deep sense of guilt for doubting his sincerity.
“You actually thought I was going to hit you.” Shao Cheng sneered. “Did you really think I would?”
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” Bai Yang kept apologizing and couldn’t hide his excitement as he hugged Shao Cheng tightly. “I was just in my head, I’m so afraid of losing you.”
Shao Cheng pinched the collar of Bai Yang’s shirt at the back of his neck and softly pushed him back. “You thought a few sweet words would make me go easy on you?”
At this moment, Bai Yang was willing to do anything Shao Cheng said. “Whatever you want me to do, I’ll do it.”
“you said it not me.” Shao Cheng dangerously narrowed his eyes and lowered his voice. “I might not want to hit you, but I’m more than willing to have my way with you.”
