Are You Addicted?

Fang Fei walked out from the office building and she saw Gu Hai’s car parked down there.

She waved her hand towards Gu Hai.

Gu Hai smiled and then he rolled the car window down.

“It’s been a really long time since the last time I saw you, where did you go these days?” Fang Fei said while opening the door on the right side of the car and sat inside.

“I didn’t go anywhere, just two places, school and home.”

“Go home?” Fang Fei was surprised all of a sudden.

“So, the cold war between you and your father has already ended?”

“I didn’t go back to that house.”

“You’re still living at your new place?”

Gu Hai only smiled, not saying anything else.

Fang Fei fixed her gaze on Gu Hai, “Are there any good things happening recently? You always seem very happy inside…..”

“What good things could happen to me?” Gu Hai tapped his fingers against the steering wheel rhythmically, “Even if there is, there are still some things that make me extremely anxious!”

Fang Fei’s expression became restless, “Don’t tell me that you came here because you want to seek for my help? I knew it, if you came here it’s never going to be a good thing.”

“No.” Gu Hai replied firmly, “I just want to discuss something with you.”

“Discuss something?” There was a hint of suspicion on Fang Fei’s expression, “Jin Lu Lu came back to find you again?”

“It barely has anything to do with her.”

“Look, I guess it’s really because of her, can you be a little bit more resolute? She’s that kind of person…..”

“Stop.” Gu Hai raised one of his hands up, “It really isn’t because of her.”

“Then, what happened?”

There was a hint of arrogance upon Gu Hai’s handsome face that appeared before her eyes, as if the sentences he’s going to say will bring him a lot of pride.

“The one I like right now is a guy.”

Fang Fei’s eyeb.a.l.l.s almost fly out from the car window.

“No… Xiao Hai, stop fooling around. Tell me the truth…” Fang Fei spoke incoherently, her hand kept on prodding at Gu Hai’s strong body nonstop, “How can you be like ‘that’? You see, you’re very manly, even if I were to pick someone randomly on the street, he won’t be as manly as you.”

Gu Hai sneered, “Maybe I have way too much male hormones, woman just can’t satisfy me anymore.”

Fang Fei laughed, “Boy, you’re only scaring me right? Jin Lu Lu hit you hard and now you’re taking a revenge on the society, right?”

“…. I’m telling you the truth.”

Fang Fei’s laughter gradually stiffened, her eyes were fixed on Gu Hai for a while. She saw that Gu Hai’s face became more and more imposing, with no intention to joke at all, she suddenly felt helpless.

“You… Actually, what happened to you?”

“I’ll tell you after we go back.”

……

Fang Fei poured a cup of coffee for Gu Hai, she placed it on top of the sofa, she looked at Gu Hai with a face full of worries.

“I also don’t know why I like him so much. I’m sure my s.e.xual orientation is normal. I"ve never been interested in another guy while walking on the street. But it’s not like that when it comes to him. If I were to be separated from him even just for one day, I will miss him. I miss him so much that I won’t be able to sleep at night. I just want to treat him well, treat him well unconditionally, I wish I could put the entire world into his hands.”

“This guy really has a lot of charms!”

Once Bai Luo Yin’s charms was mentioned, Gu Hai talked so much like a chatterbox, as soon as he opened his mouth, he couldn’t stop. He told Fang Fei again all the things that he said to others for countless times, he spoke extravagantly [1] and with a high spirit. It was as if Bai Luo Yin is the most almighty person in the entire world, and between all living creatures in the three realms of heavens, earth, and h.e.l.l, Bai Luo Yin is second to none.

Fang Fei had completely turned into a stone.

After all these years, being Gu Hai’s cousin, she had never seen Gu Hai being possessed completely like this, not to mention that Gu Hai even praised someone so much like this, it’s really strange. It’s exactly this kind of expression, this kind of att.i.tude, that caused Fang Fei to become dumbfounded.

Who is this guy? He successfully made my little brother became to go crazy like this!

“What’s wrong with all these guys now? Letting go of such a beautiful woman, but insisting on being together with another guy.”

“All?” Gu Hai slanted his gaze towards Fang Fei, “There’s another guy close to you who’s like this too?”

“Not only that, but there are so many guys like that. Did you forget? I’m working at the communication media field, I engaged with the media for the whole day, I saw a lot of them. Someone whom I knew well, who is also my best friend’s ex-boyfriend, I don’t know what’s wrong with him, but suddenly he’s with another guy already. He’s feeling anxious all the time too, his parents urged him to go steady quickly, but he still hold on to another guy all day long, that’s why he feels very anxious! You too, it serves you right!”

Gu Hai moved his lips, “I’m not anxious because of this.”

Fang Fei’s expression was slightly sluggish, “Then, why?”

“He didn’t accept me.”

“So, you disturbed me for half day just because he doesn’t like you back! What were you actually doing with that blind fool?” The term that Fang Fei used made Gu Hai felt like half of his life spirit had gone.

Gu Hai’s face changed, “It’s not like he doesn’t like me too, he just doesn’t accept me, I feel that he has some feelings towards me too.”

“I can"t help you with this. I don’t want to mislead you since I am not familiar with it. If my aunt knew, she’d definitely come to find me…..” Fang Fei whispered in a small voice.

“Let’s do this then, call your best friend that you told me about earlier and ask him to come here. I’ll talk with him.”

…..

“Both of you can just talk here, I’ll go.”

Fang Fei grabbed a cup of coffee and then went back to her own bedroom.

A tall and handsome guy sat in front of Gu Hai, they were sitting across each other, they didn’t even seem like they wanted to chat, it’s more like they wanted to fight.

“So what you mean is, he allowed you to live at his house, and he doesn"t refuse to sleep on the same bed with you?”

Gu Hai nodded his head, “Yes, our relationship is just like what I just told you earlier. It’s good enough, and also quite intimate. But he just didn’t let me touch him nor didn’t admit that he likes me too.”

“What’s there to admit? That guy raised his lips and smiled, “Hasn’t he admitted it already?”

Gu Hai’s eyes focused on that guy’s thin lips, he liked what he just heard.

“Since he heard your confession already, and he showed no sign of rejection or any kind of expression, it just proved that he’d accepted it at the bottom of his heart. Think about it, if you were a straight guy and another guy confessed his feelings to you, wouldn"t you turn hostile towards him? Will you still allow him to live at your house? Of course you will be scared and avoid him! I’m not saying that he’s abnormal, what I mean is that he accepted you already. Perhaps, he already knew about it since long time ago, he simply pretended not to know about it and played with you deliberately.”

“Actually, I understand what you just said, but the problem is…..”

“He doesn’t let you to touch him?” That guy finished Gu Hai’s words.

Gu Hai stood up and then shook his hands.

“Actually this problem, it’s hard to resolve this problem, the key depends on you.”

Gu Hai waited patiently for his instruction.

“Just four words, "only if you dare!"”

Gu Hai narrowed his eyes slightly.

…..

Monday afternoon, a physical examination would be held at the school.

You Qi fiddled with his clothes zipper while blurting out whatever came into his mind: “I heard that one of the physical examination this time required us to take off the clothes completely, 20 students per one checkup room, that part of every student needs to be checked.”

Bai Luo Yin seemed to be ignorant, but he was actually trying to conceal his distraught mind.

After cla.s.s, Bai Luo Yin went to look for the vice cla.s.s leader, he was in charge of all the matters regarding the physical examination.

“Please don’t put Gu Hai and I in one group during the physical examination.”

“Why?” He was surprised, “You have a very good relationship with Gu Hai, right? I intentionally arranged both of you together in a one group!”

“….” Bai Luo Yin facepalmed, “You don’t need know, just don’t put me in one group together with him.”

“Come, let’s go to do the examination.” Gu Hai patted Bai Luo Yin’s shoulder.

Bai Luo Yin replied lightly, “We’re not in the same group, our group will go there after cla.s.s.”

Gu Hai’s complexion changed. “There’s no cla.s.s anyway, let’s just go together. If you wait inside the cla.s.sroom, you will feel so bored!”

“I’m a little bit sleepy, I’ll sleep first.”

After Bai Luo Yin finished his words, he immediately laid his face on top of his desk.

Gu Hai had no choice but to walk away.

Arriving at the gym, he saw the students from another cla.s.s walking out in groups, while discussing about that ‘thing’. Gu Hai then realized that the examination inside required to check ‘that part’ as well. No wonder that boy doesn’t want to be together with me in one group, he definitely knew about this in advance! Gu Hai was upset, but he was also pleased, do you think that if I just miss this one opportunity to see it, then I won’t be able to see it at all? I can just strip you off tonight! Little boy, you’re really making it difficult for me.

Bai Luo Yin was just barely slouching inside the cla.s.s, when the vice cla.s.s leader went inside and called everyone.

“The previous group is almost finished, the next group must go quickly. Because there are so many cla.s.ses doing the physical examination together, so the queue has become so long. I was looking for the group with the least people, after I checked it, the genitals checkup is the fastest…..”

Countless coughs and whistles could be heard inside the cla.s.sroom, every girl inside the cla.s.s blushed, why do the guys still need to do check up on that thing?

When Bai Luo Yin went down, the previous group still hadn’t finished their examination yet, they were queuing outside the genitals checkup room.

Gu Hai turned his head, and winked at Bai Luo Yin from a distance.

Bai Luo Yin was aware of it, but he simply ignored Gu Hai’s troublesome stare.

“Cla.s.s 27, please enter right away.”

Bai Luo Yin fixed his gaze on Gu Hai who entered the room, then the door closed firmly, Bai Luo Yin let out a sigh of relief.

Gu Hai was the first one to take his trousers off.

Ten seconds later, the examination room’s door suddenly opened, then seven or eight students ran out from the room.

You Qi was bewildered, “Why did your examination ended so fast?”

One student among them gestured at his crotch, there was fear upon his face, “I’ll just wait until the next group, this is really embarra.s.sing to show!”

Several students recoiled their heads and scurried off to the very back of the line.

As a result, the physician walked outside, and said with wrinkled eyebrows, “Why does this group only has a few students? Some of you, come inside.”

Bai Luo Yin was dumbfounded.

The physician pointed at Bai Luo Yin’s side and said, “I mean you guys, why are you still not moving, hurry up!”

Translator’s Note:

[1] ‘he spoke extravagantly’: the literal translation of ‘extravagantly’ is ‘like flowers cascading from the sky’ or ‘like a deluge of heavenly flowers’, meaning Gu Hai praised Bai Luo Yin so much with extravagant elaboration.
