CH 31

This makes the people who hear it both happy and miffed.

Huo Ming Chen let go of his shirt collar and said as he pouted, 

“It’s not that I never gave you money, you just didn’t want it yourself. Don’t always try to put the blame on me. And…… you’ve slept with me so many times, did I ask you for a single penny?”

The ending words suddenly lowered in volume, and adding in his smiling eyes, the atmosphere slowly started to get heated up.

Lu Qi reached out, wanting to cover his mouth but he was too slow. Instead, Huo Ming Chen was faster and grabbed him by the wrist to pull him up, 

“Let’s go. There’s too many people here. I’ll take you for a drive.”

Lu Qi felt like he was somehow the weaker one today. This entire time he was being led around by the nose by Huo Ming Chen. He tried to fight the hold off but found that the other’s strength was too strong and could only give up.

As soon as he sat in the car, he was undoubtedly met with Huo Ming Chen’s mocking laughter, 

“As if your itsy bitsy tiny body could fight me.”

Hearing this, Lu Qi smiled fakely at Huo Ming Chen’s clear eyes that could only see a line between good and evil in the world, as if to laugh at his childish ignorance. He took a look at his phone, asking offhandedly, 

“Do you want to try what it feels like to not get out of bed for three days?”

Huo Ming Chen:”……” 

He fucking wants to but is also fucking scared.

Lu Qi’s fighting skills were terrible, but that does not mean that his skills in bed were. Huo Ming Chen could only win over with words, but when Lu Qi is ruthless enough, he could roll them around the bed sheets until Huo Ming Chen is crying for his father and his mother, or even his ancestors.

Seeing the arrogant one suddenly not uttering a sound, the corners of his mouth tugged up imperceptibly. He rolled down the car window a little bit, letting the slight breeze mess up his hair as he leaned back with a carefree expression.

Huo Ming Chen glanced at him from the side, while paying attention to the road up front as well as the setting sun. He spoke up randomly and said, 

“You like wearing light colored clothes, like places that are quiet, like watching movies especially comedies, like to eat your favorite foods which are food made with glutinous rice, like to listen to songs, your favorite being classical, for weather you love light rain, and your favourite thing is money……”

Hearing this spiel, Lu Qi suddenly opened his eyes with surprise flashing in them. He could only hear the person beside him continue to ask, 

“Did I get them all right?”

Huo Ming Chen came forward to kiss him again, and then with his lips close to Lu Qi’s ears, elongated his syllables once again, 

“You big men~sao~”

“Then you are a mingsao.”1

Lu Qi opened the car door, and sat in the passenger seat, feeling that that word was born to describe Huo Ming Chen.

The night was dark, and staying up on the mountains at night was not very safe. Huo Ming Chen started the car to drive back down. The headlights were shining down on the surrounding backdrop of trees, pulling their shadows into long figures. As if Lu Qi’s intimacy just now gave him courage, Huo Ming Chen suddenly said,

“Lu Qi,”

“Mhmm?”

“Did you ever think about……”

Before Huo Ming Chen could even finish, the entire car suddenly jolted forwards, as if they were slammed from behind by something. Huo Ming Chen and Lu Qi’s expression immediately changed, and they both looked backwards. A medium sized truck had stopped behind them, and at this exact moment was backing up, as if to prepare to hit them once more.

Huo Ming Chen immediately sensed in his heart that something was not right and prepared to speed up to escape. Who could have thought that at this time, another car was heading towards them, lights shining so brightly that it made their eyes see a field of white. With the truck behind them, these two cars have now created two sides of attack, leaving the two young men trapped in the middle of the road.

Huo Ming Chen’s eyes flashed with a glint of ruthlessness, and he wanted to slam straight into the incoming car to get over them. But thinking that this was by the mountain and that Lu Qi was sitting beside him, he could only grit his teeth and stomp down that urge.

Notes:

*1 Mingsao: opposite of “mensao” where the “ming” means clear so in this case, it means that the person is not hiding away the wildness inside them, even wanting to show it off.
