Chapter 88 – The shy little flower blooming quietly~

Tang Qing gently opened the door.

“He said he would love me forever! But the next day, after sleeping with me, he claimed he had amnesia and forgot about me! What kind of ridiculous excuse is that? Is there anything more absurd than amnesia?” A passionate female voice came from the television.

“Perhaps he had some reasons for it? Maybe he made up excuses for your own good?” the host reassured.

“He’s just a scumbag! He just lusted after my body!” The female voice grew more agitated and intense.

On the television was a variety show about relationship disputes, with a girl vehemently condemning a scumbag who ran off after sleeping with her.

Tang Bo sat in the rocking chair, legs propped up on the coffee table, hands behind his head, eyes closed and head tilted, a hint of blue in the depths of his eyes.

Seeing his brother waiting for him all night in the living room while he was out fooling around with his childhood friend made Tang Qing feel ashamed.

He covered Tang Bo with a blanket and quietly returned to his room to take a shower.

“Hiss…”

As the hot water cascaded over him, Tang Qing felt a slight stinging sensation in his chest.

He lowered his head in confusion, only to discover two red points, swollen like small cherries.

What happened?

Could it be that last night, he got carried away and ended up…

No way…

Tang Qing examined them closely, both sides covered in bite marks, with one side bearing a faint handprint.

Oh, he remembered now; it was Chen Niannian pinching him. Although it didn’t hurt, his delicate skin was easily marked, staying red for several days even with a minor bump.

Every time he had marks on his body, Lu Bei would feel distressed and say he needed to treat Tangtang like a delicate princess.

But, were these bite marks from Lu Bei?

He wasn’t a girl, with a flat chest, so why would Lu Bei like to bite here?

Could it be because he’s a straight guy, so subconsciously he likes this area?

But this area of his doesn’t resemble a girl’s at all.

It’s really strange, not being able to figure it out, Tang Qing decided to stop thinking about it.

After showering, he lay down on the bed.

Although he wasn’t in the habit of taking naps, last night was truly exhausting, and he hadn’t slept a wink all night.

Plus, his back was really sore. He didn’t understand what he had done last night. He vaguely remembered being on the bed, then being carried to the hotel’s floor-to-ceiling window, and finally to the balcony… feeling like he was falling apart. Even sitting down now made his butt feel uncomfortable, as if that thing was still inside him.

He couldn’t help but think back to what he did for Lu Bei in the morning, the heavy feeling in his hands, and the sexy hoarse voice when the man released himself.

Ah, Tang Qing, stop thinking about it.

Embarrassed beyond words, his face was flushed, like a steamed red apple.

He burrowed under the covers, rolling from one side to the other like a caterpillar.

Rolling back and forth,

Rolling back and forth.

Doesn’t this prove that Lu Bei isn’t entirely homophobic, maybe he could be swayed or bent?

Tang Qing buried his head in the covers,

And chuckled softly.

(/ω＼)

…

In the evening, when the sunset couldn’t reach the cat’s behind, Tang Qing woke up groggily.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a handsome face almost right in front of him.

“A-Bei?”

Tang Qing was startled. Lu Bei had somehow entered his room and was sitting by his bed, looking at him.

Lu Bei casually sat up, not feeling embarrassed at all, as if peeking at someone sleeping wasn’t him,

“I was worried you weren’t feeling well, so I came to check on you.”

With that, he took out a bag of medicine from the table.

“I went to the pharmacy and got some things you might need.”

Tang Qing was indeed feeling a bit uncomfortable, so he peeked into the bag.

Lu Bei picked up a bottle of medicine and explained, “This is for bruises, you can apply it on your waist and… butt.”

He then picked up several tubes of ointment, “These are for the area below, this one is for muscle fatigue relief, this one is for muscle abrasions, this one is…”

Seeing Lu Bei fall silent, Tang Qing picked up one to look at it himself.

“Horse Brand Hemorrhoid Ointment.”

???

Tang Qing widened his eyes slightly, looking at the strange effects written on the ointment.

This, this, this?

Even with Lu Bei’s thick skin, he felt a bit embarrassed and explained, “I asked the lady at the pharmacy, she said, after the first time, that area can, um, split open.”

“Especially if the top person is too big and the bottom person is too tight…”

Tang Qing felt the ointment burning in his hand, silently putting it back and softly saying, “This, probably, isn’t necessary.”

Lu Bei persisted, “The other two ointments must be used. I asked the lady, she said after the first time, it’s easy to get inflamed and swollen, you must handle it carefully.”

Tang Qing really couldn’t understand how Lu Bei could shamelessly ask the pharmacy lady about such a private issue and in such detail.

Although the lower region was a bit uncomfortable, Tang Qing didn’t want to use these strange ointments.

Seeing Tang Qing unmoved, Lu Bei frowned, “I’ll apply it for you.”

Tang Qing slightly widened his eyes, shaking his head repeatedly, “There’s no need…”

“Stop dilly-dallying. Do you think I enjoy looking at a man’s private area? It’s a part we all have, no need to be shy.”

“When I’m not around, it’ll be troublesome for you to apply it yourself. If it really gets infected, you’ll have to go to the hospital.”

Just the thought of having to bend over to apply the ointment or go to the hospital made Tang Qing even more embarrassed.

And with Lu Bei’s words, continuing to refuse would be ungrateful.

He glanced at the door, confirmed it was closed, then got up to draw the curtains tightly.

Tang Qing turned his back to Lu Bei, lowered his head, and closed his eyes, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

His slender hands reached down to his pants.

Revealing the area that had been excessively loved last night.

Fair and plump, resembling a peach.

There were fingerprints on it, clearly showing it had been kneaded lovingly all night long.

In the midst of the perky and voluptuous snowy mound, there was a trembling little flower, even more vibrant and tender due to excessive use.

“A-Bei… How is it there?” Tang Qing’s voice was crisp.

The person behind him remained silent.

Not sure if it was a hallucination, Tang Qing even felt a breath on that area.

Feeling nervous and embarrassed, he couldn’t help but tense up a bit.

So the man witnessed the bright red little flower slightly closing and then shyly opening again.

“It’s fine, just a bit red.”

After saying this, the man took out a tube of ointment from the bag, carefully checked the effects, and applied it.

Finally done applying the ointment, Tang Qing realized that Lu Bei seemed to have forgotten to wear gloves.

He turned around to thank Lu Bei.

“A-Bei, are you… okay?”

Only to see a fresh stream of blood slowly flowing from Lu Bei’s nose.

Lu Bei casually wiped it away, calmly saying, “Oh, just a nosebleed.”

He put away the ointment, went into the bathroom, and the sound of running water gushed out, stopping only after half an hour.

Lu Bei finally emerged from the bathroom, casually saying, “Let’s go out for dinner tonight. I’ll wait for you outside.”

Tang Qing nodded and then asked softly, “How did you come in? Didn’t my brother notice you?”

Lu Bei skillfully climbed onto the window sill, “Just came in like this.”

With that, he leaped down from the second floor, landing in the courtyard below the guesthouse.

“Woof woof woof!”

The corgi owned by the guesthouse owner was walking around the yard and started barking at this strange behaving human, but Lu Bei ignored the short-legged dog that dared to bark but not approach, proudly striding away from the yard.

Tang Qing changed his clothes, opened the door, and greeted Tang Bo.

“Gege, I’m going out with… Chen Niannian tonight.”

Tang Bo wasn’t too old-fashioned either, nodding, “Go out more, your temperament is like a cat, too much of a homebody. You don’t have to get close to that silly dog Lu Bei for a mission now. You can relax a bit.”

Tang Qing didn’t dare to say he was going to see that silly dog Lu Bei behind his brother’s back, let alone what happened with Lu Bei last night…

Feeling guilty, he nodded and bid farewell to his brother.

Watching Tang Qing walk away, Tang Bo felt that his younger brother had become even more handsome today.

As if he had been nourished by the rain.

Indeed, leaving the villain and spending time with peers could make his brother happy.

Satisfied, Tang Bo leaned back in his rocking chair and continued watching the variety show.

—

As Tang Qing approached the courtyard, he could see Lu Bei from afar, standing tall and striking, with distinct facial features that caught everyone’s eye. Both boys and girls passing by couldn’t help but sneak glances at him.

Tang Qing waved to Lu Bei, lowered his head, and jogged over.

It felt like they were having a secret rendezvous.

They arrived at a nearby popular hotpot restaurant, having already secured a spot online, yet they still had to wait in line upon arrival.

They each grabbed a small stool and sat at the entrance.

Judging by the situation, they wouldn’t have to wait long.

“Hey, what a coincidence.” A person affectionately patted Tang Qing’s shoulder, warmly saying, “You’re here too, classmate Tang Qing. Want to share a table with us? We already have a spot.”

Tang Qing lifted his head and saw that it was the male lead, Shen Yichen, and the female lead, Tan Qianqian.

Shen Yichen finally opened up to Tan Qianqian, and through the introduction of the goddess, they also saw the real photo of the campus flower at A University and met Tang Qing.

He had said it before, how could he randomly encounter two people who were so good-looking in A University. It turned out one was the campus heartthrob, and the other was the campus flower.

A cold glare shot his way.

Shen Yichen glanced at the person next to Tang Qing, hesitated for a second, and awkwardly added, “Of course… if you want some alone time… I won’t disturb you.”

Tang Qing looked at the long line and decided to share a table.

The four of them sat together at one table.

As soon as the dishes arrived, Lu Bei immediately gave the best pieces to Tang Qing. Then he put the shrimp and crab in his bowl, peeled each one for Tang Qing.

Tan Qianqian couldn’t help but feel a bit envious as she watched the interaction between the two opposite them.

She nudged her new boyfriend playfully, “Look at them.”

Shen Yichen looked across at the two and suddenly realized, “Classmate Tang Qing eats so elegantly, like a little cat, so cute.”

An icy glare immediately shot towards him.

Tan Qianqian rolled her eyes silently.
