Zong Yuan woke up in the middle of the night, his eyes clear, without a trace of sleepiness.
Sheng Minglang on the bed was still sound asleep, the summer cool quilt slid down to his waist, his legs stretched outside the blanket, and only a small corner covered the part clad in shorts.
This guy liked to sleep on his stomach, a posture that couldn’t be considered elegant. Zong Yuan pulled the blanket over his waist and abdomen. He walked to the window and opened it, looking outside.
Dry heat wafted in from the window. This was the 23rd floor. Zong Yuan’s gaze shifted from the dim and lightless night sky to the empty ground below. In the deep night of summer, not a single chirp of a cicada or croak of a frog could be heard.
0046 exited from the surveillance camera at the bottom of the building. “It’s a pity; I didn’t see anything.”
“Yeah,” Zong Yuan hung the window and zipped it up. “They escaped.”
0046 murmured, “They were really fast.”
Zong Yuan neither confirmed nor denied. He walked back to the bedside, glanced disdainfully at the floor, and directly turned over to lie next to Sheng Minglang. The sleeping Sheng Minglang instinctively turned over, and with practiced hands, embraced Zong Yuan into his arms.
0046 exclaimed, “Zong Yuan! You can’t sleep with him now!!!”
“…,” Zong Yuan glared at the ceiling with a dark face, the tiger ears on top of his head shook threateningly. “Shut the fuck up!”
0046 glanced at his ear unwillingly. Usually, when Zong Yuan told him to shut up, he did. Now, he hesitated to say another word, “Zong Yuan, if you really endure the loneliness, breaking his virginity would make this mission more difficult…”
Zong Yuan sneered, and 0046’s voice gradually weakened, “…It won’t be easy.”
It obediently kept silent. Zong Yuan untangled Sheng Minglang’s hands clinging to his neck, “Wake me up at five.”
Zong Yuan embraced Sheng Minglang, and they slept in each other’s arms.
The next morning, Sheng Minglang woke up to the fragrance of food. He lifted the blanket, put on slippers, and walked to the living room with a drowsy look, still carrying the perennial dark circles that couldn’t be shaken off. “What’s that smell?”
Just as he was wondering why Lin Gousi woke up so early and ordered takeout, he heard Lin Gousi’s coquettish voice, pinching his throat delicately, “Zong Yuan, you look really handsome today. It makes your figure stand out. Oops, I misspoke. It’s not that it makes it seem, it actually is excellent.”
Another voice chimed in, “You flatter me, Big Brother Lin.”
!
Lin Gousi, this scoundrel!!! Taking advantage of my sleeping to dig into my territory!!!
Damn it, have these two already exchanged names?!
Sheng Minglang kicked open the kitchen door, “What the hell are you two doing?!”
Zong Yuan and Lin Gousi turned to look at him. Lin Gousi, without caring about Sheng Minglang’s dignity, burst into laughter, “Sheng Minglang, what kind of image is this? You still have eye boogers sticking to your eyes!”
Sheng Minglang subconsciously rubbed his eyes, anger rising, “Are you fucking with me?”
Lin Gousi was almost choking on laughter. He saw Zong Yuan walking over, wiping the other eye for Sheng Minglang, “All good now. Go freshen up.”
Sheng Minglang’s face turned red, and he turned to run to the bathroom, nearly tripping over himself.
How can this be? So enticing!
Is he responsible for the seduction he started?!
Zong Yuan’s lips curled up, and Lin Gousi looked at him thoughtfully, then turned to smirk mischievously.
Nowadays, many men can cook, but neither Sheng Minglang nor Lin Gousi expected Zong Yuan to be able to cook. In their circle, someone as high-quality as Zong Yuan, not to mention not being able to cook, as long as he’s fierce enough, nothing else is considered a problem.
While Sheng Minglang was cooking porridge, the two waited by the side with bowls. Zong Yuan bypassed them and placed their steaming bowl of porridge on the table, “Don’t burn yourselves.”
This unconscious protection truly made the two irresistibly attracted!
Lin Gousi took a sip of porridge, glanced at Zong Yuan, and tearfully said to Sheng Minglang, “Darling, this man is too good. I’m afraid I might fall for him myself.”
Sheng Minglang glared fiercely at him, resembling a protective wolf cub guarding its food, “You dare have thoughts about him? Believe me, I’ll beat the crap out of you!”
Whimpering, he seemed genuinely scared.
Zong Yuan watched their expressions for a while but stopped staring. Lin Gousi had a good character, sincerely cared for Sheng Minglang, and that was already rare.
After finishing their meal, the three sat on the sofa to rest. Zong Yuan grabbed his backpack from the guest room, preparing to head out.
Sheng Minglang, absent-mindedly, logged out of the game, “You’re going out?”
“Yeah,” Zong Yuan lowered his hat brim, “Going to check out the school.”
Right, this guy is only 20 years old, and just starting college.
Sheng Minglang, naturally lacking the sentimental emotions of autumn, hurriedly found sunglasses and a sun hat, “I’ll go with you.”
Z University might not have much, but there were plenty of flirtatious girls; he had to tag along!
Zong Yuan, with the quirk of revealing tiger ears when touched by humans, couldn’t attend college. He didn’t know how the original host managed it, but as soon as he adapted to his body, he was handed an admission letter.
Although Z University was suspicious, the idea of going to school was out of the question.
Z City, a historical ancient capital, was filled with ancient and profound historical culture. Ancient buildings and people dressed in ancient costumes were everywhere. Z University was hidden among these ancient structures, small and run-down, but renowned.
Sheng Minglang wasn’t a good guide. Wearing sunglasses and a hat, he carried a star-like aura, rarely speaking. Both of them had outstanding looks, attracting a high rate of attention and being frequently captured by paparazzi.
The city center was crowded, and getting stuck in traffic for hours was a possibility. The two opted for the subway. Despite the air-conditioned train, the crowded carriages were still hot.
Zong Yuan pulled Sheng Minglang into a corner, forming a triangular space with his arms.
The girls nearby stole glances at them, whispering.
Sheng Minglang’s momentarily unpleasant mood soared to heaven. He lightly placed his hands on Zong Yuan’s shoulders, a teasing smile on his lips. His fingers traced over Zong Yuan’s neck, creating ambiguous curves, “Oh, little nephew, what’s going on? Have you taken a liking to Uncle?”
“Ah!” The girl beside them was already excited, covering her mouth in astonishment.
Zong Yuan took his fingers down and clenched them in his hand, “Don’t speak.”
“Why can’t I speak?” Sheng Minglang’s eyes under the sunglasses looked around, “Who has a little nephew saying such things to Uncle? Only a boyfriend can say that to me.”
Zong Yuan followed his words, “Uncle has a boyfriend?”
His hand was still holding Sheng Minglang’s fingertips, but it seemed like both had forgotten about it. Sheng Minglang, once again, started to act like a fluttering deer, “Of course, Uncle doesn’t have one.”
“Oh,” Zong Yuan said, “That’s good.”
Ah ah ah! What does he mean by “that’s good”?
Sheng Minglang extended his long legs forward, touching Zong Yuan’s legs. He slowly rubbed back and forth, the movements ambiguous enough that the nearby girl dared not look. Zong Yuan released Sheng Minglang’s hand and rubbed his neck, warning, “Behave.”
His voice was filled with desire that anyone could clearly hear.
Sheng Minglang, with only theoretical knowledge and no practical experience, felt his legs go weak involuntarily, and he couldn’t help but say, “Beast…”
He looked down at Zong Yuan’s lower region with anticipation and nervousness, but there was nothing. None of the exciting scenes he had imagined appeared.
Damn, what a letdown.
Zong Yuan, with a displeased expression, casually strolled around Z University with Sheng Minglang. It was the beginning of the school year, and new students with luggage were entering the campus. Zong Yuan and Sheng Minglang looked like students, but not like freshmen.
A few new students with red faces came over to ask for directions. It was okay for female students, Sheng Minglang was not afraid. But what were those blushing male students even thinking?
After a round, Sheng Minglang, with a sour face, was ready to go back. Zong Yuan inspected the surroundings and found nothing unusual. After having dinner outside, they packed a portion for Lin Gousi, who was guarding their home.
At nine o’clock in the evening, it was time for Sheng Minglang’s live broadcast again.
Zong Yuan and Lin Gousi sat beside him, chatting. This time, they deliberately lowered their voices. As soon as Sheng Minglang’s live broadcast started, a large number of fans who had been eagerly waiting rushed in.
【Golden Spear Unyielding: Sheng-ge, you’re my idol! Please share the contact information of that handsome guy from last night! Ah, I fell in love with him at first sight!】
【Soaring Above the Clouds sent a rocket: I’m different. I only hope to have a moment of spring with Sheng-ge. I heard Sheng-ge is mighty.】
【Whimper Weird: …The people upstairs are too thirsty, aren’t they?】
Tonight’s fans were even more numerous than those who watched the broadcast last night. The comments section was filled with all kinds of characters. Yesterday’s viewers were mostly Sheng Minglang’s gaming and beauty fans, but today, a lot of thirsty and flirtatious ladies joined the audience.
Zong Yuan watched as Sheng Minglang’s aura became increasingly intense, “He’s getting angry.”
Lin Gousi chuckled, advising Zong Yuan not to care, “Probably because someone more flirtatious than Sheng-ge appeared. Stay calm, stay calm. Jealousy is human nature.”
The barrage of comments from gaming enthusiasts couldn’t take it.
【Rolling Rolling Rolling: What’s going on with those people upstairs? If you don’t pay attention, you might think it’s a live adult show.】
【Universe’s Number One Handsome: Exactly! My magnificent and superb skills and you guys can’t appreciate them at all!】
【Rain Flower Stone: What you’re saying makes sense… but I still want the handsome guys to appear, even Gousi-ge is fine! I’m not picky!】
“Damn,” Lin Gousi rolled his eyes, dragging Zong Yuan over and asking the netizens, “Am I just barely acceptable, right?”
Zong Yuan’s hand casually rested on Sheng Minglang’s shoulder. In the live broadcast, where Sheng Minglang usually portrayed a cold image, he not only didn’t push Zong Yuan away but even softened his gaming techniques.
Zong Yuan’s tiger ears popped up again, pressing against the hat on Zong Yuan’s head.
【Wow wow wow! The handsome guy is here!】
【Want to see the green pigeon blood tattoo…】
【Also a bit greedy, want the handsome guy to say a sweet nothings…】
Sheng Minglang snorted, “To the friend ‘South Sea Man,’ not happening.”
He reiterated his refusal, “Whether it’s a tattoo or sweet nothings, it’s not happening for any of you.”
Damn it, I haven’t seen or heard enough.
The barrage was filled with cries and attempts to bribe and coerce with gifts. Suddenly, Zong Yuan placed his hand on Sheng Minglang’s head, gently rubbing it. In a low voice, he issued a firm yet gentle command, “Darling, don’t look at them, look at me.”
!!!
Holy crap, holy crap!!!
Sheng Minglang’s breath slightly hitched, his hand movements paused, and on the screen, his character was already killed by the monster.
He felt like he was about to die in real life too.
He got hard.
Author’s note:
0046: You can’t get into bed until the mission is complete!
Sheng Minglang (Why isn’t seducing my husband working): Feeling cold-hearted.
