- Chapter 108 - Scumbag Behavior
Pei Yu had doubted himself as a player more than once.
How could his heart beat for two people simultaneously?
There was only one reason—
His heart was sick!
He had to go see a doctor!
If you’re sick, you need to see a doctor. He couldn’t just endure it. He was afraid that if he kept enduring, he wouldn’t be able to resist actually becoming a scumbag.
On one side was Wanwan, and on the other was his roommate. At this moment, Pei Yu was immensely grateful that he didn’t have contact information for either of them.
Otherwise, he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to stop himself from confessing to both of them simultaneously.
That would undoubtedly solidify his identity as a scumbag.
Oh, right, he didn’t even have his roommate’s contact information. It looked like he could find an opportunity to ask Xu Wanxing for his contact details.
They were roommates, so that wouldn’t be too weird.
Xu Wanxing took the bus back to the villa where Lu Yanbai lived.
As soon as he entered, he saw Lu Yanbai sitting on the living room sofa, a laptop in his hands. Judging by his serious posture, he was likely working.
Xu Wanxing silently closed his mouth, not wanting to disturb Lu Yanbai, and quietly sat down not far from him.
Lu Yanbai’s sharp eyes immediately looked up and saw Xu Wanxing. His serious expression instantly softened. He closed the laptop and placed it on the coffee table, his straight back relaxing slightly.
He rubbed his temples twice and gestured toward Xu Wanxing: “Baby, come sit closer. Where did you go to play today?”
Xu Wanxing wisely skipped mentioning the bar. “I went to school. Oh, right, I’m sorry, Husband, I lost your clothes.”
Xu Wanxing’s voice held a hint of dejection. Anyone hearing it would believe he had genuinely made a mistake and was feeling guilty.
But Lu Yanbai thought more deeply. He couldn’t help but remember washing Xu Wanxing’s clothes and tearing them.
Lu Yanbai said meaningfully: “It’s alright, Baby. It’s perfectly normal for clothes to go missing. Everyone’s clothes disappear; it’s only a matter of time.”
“If Baby likes it, you can discard my clothes however you want,” Lu Yanbai hinted.
Xu Wanxing didn’t grasp Lu Yanbai’s hidden meaning and stared at him incredulously.
Lu Yanbai’s outrageous words reminded him of those overly doting parents on the internet who indulged their children excessively.
They completely disregarded whether the child’s behavior was right or wrong, their heads filled only with spoiling them.
However, for a rational adult like him, this behavior was inadvisable.
But the one who made the mistake now was him, and the one spoiling him was Lu Yanbai. For a moment, he actually felt a little happy.
Seeing the faint joy on Xu Wanxing’s face, the smile in Lu Yanbai’s eyes deepened. He reached out and wrapped an arm around Xu Wanxing’s waist, pulling him closer.
Xu Wanxing obediently moved closer. This time, he didn’t have the sense of urgency and panic he had felt when facing Lin Yao at the bar.
He felt inexplicably secure next to Lu Yanbai.
Xu Wanxing thought for a long time but couldn’t come up with a reason, eventually attributing it to Lu Yanbai being the protagonist.
“Oh, right, there’s one more thing,” Xu Wanxing said. “I want to go skiing in the North next weekend. Can I?”
Lu Yanbai looked confused. “Didn’t Baby say you wanted to focus on studying next weekend? Why the sudden change of plans to go playing there?”
Xu Wanxing felt guilty for a second, suddenly realizing that Lin Yao’s money was still stuffed in his pants pockets. He couldn’t let Lu Yanbai find it.
Xu Wanxing subtly shifted to the other side. Lu Yanbai keenly noticed, his eyes darkening slightly, and he unconsciously frowned.
Xu Wanxing: “It was a sudden whim. I love to study while traveling. Will you come with me, Husband?”
Although Xu Wanxing’s backside was slightly further away from Lu Yanbai, his hand hugged Lu Yanbai’s arm, shaking it gently.
He didn’t want to do this, but Lin Yao had truly put him on the spot.
Lu Yanbai’s expression cleared a little, the curve of his mouth lifted, and his voice was silky: “Sure. It’ll be a good chance for me to relax too.”
“Oh, right,” Xu Wanxing said, pretending to just remember. “Can two of my friends come along too?”
Lu Yanbai’s expression, which had just brightened, darkened again. His eyes were deep, carrying a sense of impending storm. His rich voice became low and husky.
“Which two friends? Do I know them?”
Hearing the oppressive tone, Xu Wanxing couldn’t help but shiver. “You know them. Of course, you know them.”
“Oh? Is that so?” Lu Yanbai’s face showed keen interest, but his eyes grew darker. The striking red at the corners of his eyes turned bloodshot, looking terrifying and alarming. “Tell me about them.”
“One is Lin Yao. He said he’ll cover all expenses and let us take his private jet. He’s such a great person,” Xu Wanxing said under pressure.
Lu Yanbai nodded. “Who is the other one?”
At this point, Xu Wanxing looked at Lu Yanbai with some hesitation. While Lu Yanbai was confused, he leaned over and kissed him on the cheek.
His tone was slightly soft: “The other person hasn’t agreed to come yet, and I don’t have his contact information. Could you ask him to come play with us?”
That kiss instantly dispelled Lu Yanbai’s low mood. His spirits lifted significantly, and his expression softened. He said gently: “Tell me, who is it?”
“Shen Yuxuan.”
Xu Wanxing quickly looked up to gauge Lu Yanbai’s reaction, his eyes somewhat evasive.
Lu Yanbai’s hand, resting on his pants, instantly tensed. Veins popped up on the back of his hand, and his knuckles turned pale due to the excessive force.
His face was grim, emotions surging in his dark eyes, which were profoundly murky. It took him a moment before he spoke: “Why him?”
But what he really wanted to ask was: Why is it him?
Xu Wanxing knew he was being unreasonable. He wanted to use Lin Yao’s invitation to take Lu Yanbai and Shen Yuxuan along, letting the two of them foster their relationship.
But he didn’t have Shen Yuxuan’s contact information. Shen Yuxuan had deleted him long ago.
So he thought he would ask Lu Yanbai to invite Shen Yuxuan.
Xu Wanxing’s gaze wandered for a moment. “I see the Elder Master likes him very much, but your relationship isn’t great. Since someone is treating, you two can also improve your relationship, which will make the Elder Master happy.”
Lu Yanbai’s suspicious gaze flashed away. His hand gradually loosened its grip on his pants, but the large area of wrinkles on the fabric wouldn’t smooth out immediately.
He pondered for a moment before speaking: “That makes sense. But you said two friends, when did Shen Yuxuan become your friend?”
Xu Wanxing was momentarily tongue-tied. His peripheral vision caught the redness in Lu Yanbai’s palm, and he instinctively pulled Lu Yanbai’s hand onto his own thigh, pressing it gently.
His own palm was soft yet resilient. Although he voluntarily helped Lu Yanbai massage his hand, he still felt like he was taking advantage of Lu Yanbai.
Lu Yanbai’s expression softened considerably, but he still looked at Xu Wanxing, wanting an answer.
Xu Wanxing offered a flattering smile: “I was just afraid you wouldn’t agree! I’m not familiar with him at all. You’re actually more familiar with Shen Yuxuan than I am.”
“I’m very familiar with him?” Lu Yanbai suddenly smiled faintly, though there was no humor in his eyes.
Xu Wanxing thought about it and nodded. “More familiar than the relationship between him and me.”
In a few months, their relationship wouldn’t be a question of familiarity anymore.
