Gu Bai held the stuff in his hands and looked at Qi Le who was nesting on the bed, staring at him in a daze. He felt an unbearable itch in his heart. His first impulse was to pounce on the man, but luckily, he could still see reason, so he merely stood there silently.

Qi Le wanted to dig a hole to bury Ye Shuichuan. What Ye Shuichuan did would obviously make Gu Bai misunderstand his intentions. He stammered, “Don’t... don’t take him seriously. My older brother is just like that.”

“I know, I didn’t take it seriously.” Gu Bai put those things on the bedside table, looked at them, then looked at a certain someone again, still longing to pounce on him. He couldn’t help but sigh inside, continuing with his act.

Realizing that he really didn’t care about it, Qi Le was relieved and quickly threw everything into the drawer. He waited for Gu Bai to get into bed before he went to turn off the lights and walked back in the dark. He thought to himself that Yi Hang, that idiot, shouldn’t come back after all. He would finally get a good sleep. He closed his eyes contentedly and was ready to fall into deep sleep but while he was still half awake, he suddenly felt himself being hugged into a tight embrace which completely scared him up, “......Gu Bai?”

Gu Bai was in a great mood at being able to hold him again. He tightened his arms around Qi Le and went to sleep with satisfaction.

Qi Le called out his name again but didn’t get any response. Thinking back to the times when he used to be hugged, he remembered that when he was little, this man always slept with his arms around him. He suddenly understood something – this person had always liked to sleep with someone in his arms, but when they slept together, he didn’t even show the slightest inclination towards this. What did this mean? This showed that although he really liked him, he didn’t dare hope, so he tried his best to control himself. He probably ended up not sleeping well all night, perhaps not sleeping at all.

After thinking it over, he stopped resisting and touched Gu Bai’s face, thinking to himself that he could always hold a pillow. Why pretend to sleep all night? He sighed sadly, “Why do you pretend to sleep... I won’t laugh at you even if you told me...”

Gu Bai froze, surprised from the bottom of his heart. Had he been seen through? But what did “I won’t laugh at you” mean? He softly said, “......Xiao Le?”

Qi Le’s hand immediately froze. He quickly retracted his hand, biting his finger as he anxiously stared at the fuzzy outline in front of him. Did he make a mistake? Was this man just dreaming after all?

Gu Bai was even more surprised when he didn’t hear any response, but he knew that Xiao Le was trying to see if he was pretending. He thought to himself that it was alright anyways. Everything that he wanted was here. He could take this opportunity to do as he pleased. He held on tight and leaned over to kiss Qi Le’s ear. He murmured in a low voice, “Xiao Le, I love you. I really love you. Please don’t push me away...”

Qi Le could clearly feel a hard object pressing against him. He fell apart at once. Fucking hell! It wasn’t that this rascal liked to sleep while hugging something. Instead, he was actually having a fucking spring dream. Damn it! He must be dreaming about bursting his chrysanthemum ah!

Gu Bai, as if completely unaware of his thoughts, put his hand into his pajamas, slowly stroking upwards. He was even pinching the small bumps on his chest.

Qi Le went mad at once. He grabbed him by the shoulder and shook him hard. “Gu Bai, wake up! Wake up!”

Gu Bai, “...”

Qi Le broke away from his embrace, turned on the bedside lamp, looked back at the man who had just opened his eyes, and lunged towards him. “Are you awake? Look clearly, I’m Zheng Xiaoyuan! “

Gu Bai had nowhere to vent his desire and was caught off guard. He could only stare at him blankly.

Qi Le reached out his hand and shook him again, “Are you awake?”

Gu Bo froze for a long time, then held back his temper and asked, “What’s the matter?”

“You suddenly rushed over and hugged me,” Qi Le explained. “I thought you like to sleep with something in your arms, so I didn’t wake you. Afterwards, I realized that wasn’t the case. Were you dreaming?”

Gu Bai kept quiet. So this was the truth?

Qi Le blinked at him, “Hey.”

Gu Bai looked at him nesting in bed with his pajamas all messed up, his delicate collarbones revealed. He secretly thought about the consequences of eating him up right now. Finally, he rubbed his forehead and rolled over. “Sorry.”

Qi Le patted his frightened heart and turned off the lights again.

Gu Bai resigned himself this time. He didn’t hug the man until the latter fell asleep. He kissed his lips, feeling as if he couldn’t get enough, then closed his eyes and went to sleep.

Under the impact of this incident, Qi Le began to dream in a daze. The dream seemed to be the live version of the two people he had seen fooling around in the apartment. But this time, the persons involved had changed. It was him kneeling down on the sofa while Gu Bai grabbed his waist, slamming into his chrysanthemum. He kept slamming and slamming and...

He suddenly opened his eyes. It was already bright outside. He sat up and buried his face in his hands. “Oh my god, it’s too stimulating...”

The door opened with a click and Gu Bai stood at the door. “Are you awake?”

Qi Le’s expression was stiff as he stared at him in a daze. He hadn’t quite adjusted his emotions yet. The man had been very wicked in his dream. He said no, but the man still persisted in bursting his chrysanthemum, completely lacking his usual gentleness.

Gu Bai looked at Qi Le, who was still in a daze, and wanted to go over and touch him all over. He said faintly, “Since you’re awake, go wash up and have breakfast.”

Qi Le nodded dumbly, touched his own face, then got up and floated to the bathroom. After washing up, he sat down at the table, slightly dazed. “Who made this?”

“I got up to cook.” Ye Shuichuan said, “But he woke up as well and helped as well. He made the porridge. Try it.”

Qi Le muttered an "Mmm." As he swallowed down his porridge, he looked Gu Bai up and down but suddenly saw Gu Bai glancing at him. He immediately looked down at his food, thinking to himself that the usual, gentle Gu Bai was indeed the best. The fierce person in his dream was too scary.

Being glanced at from time to time by Qi Le had put Gu Bai in a good mood. He decided to continue working hard. Little by little, he would surely bend. He finished breakfast, borrowed some money to take a taxi, and got up and left.

Qi Le was pushed out of the door by Ye Shuichuan and could only follow Gu Bai downstairs. “Be careful on the road.”

Gu Bai nodded but suddenly walked back after taking two steps. “You have amnesia now and don’t remember a lot of things. I’ll give you a piece of advice. If Ye Shuichuan and Shen Shu get into a fight, don’t go up to them and pull them apart. They’ll automatically make up after awhile.”

Qi Le guessed that Shen Shu was the person his older brother had called “Xiao Shu," that is, Tranny. He nodded, “I know.”

Only then was Gu Bai relieved, leaving at once.

When Qi Le went back, he was held down by Ye Shuichuan for questioning. He asked him if he kissed Gu Bai last night, if they had rubbed each other off, if they did it... He remained expressionless as he answered, “Gē, we really didn’t do anything ah!”

Ye Shuichuan painstakingly educated Qi Le while the latter listened quietly for a while before going back to his room and shutting the door. Seeing that Qi Le wouldn’t open the door no matter how many times he knocked, only then did Ye Shuichuan leave him alone.

Qi Le stayed in the apartment the entire day and wanted to go over to feed the cat, but on second thought, he and Gu Bai had been in a rather embarrassing situation last night. Plus, he had that kind of dream again, so it was better that they didn’t meet for the time being. As for the painting... Since Gu Bai had locked it up, he probably wouldn’t look at it in the meantime, so he could always change the date later when he got a chance.

He glanced at the time, feeling rather bored. After thinking a little, he suddenly remembered his car. He had found a job and didn’t plan to sell the car unless he had no other choice. But he didn’t have a driver’s license in his previous life. He was only at the stage where he could barely drive and didn’t dare to drive on the road. But now that he had a car, he couldn’t just leave it. He thought for a bit, took his keys and left. He ended up driving around the neighborhood at a speed of less than 10 mph.

When Ye Shuichuan went downstairs and saw him, he managed to stop him. He opened the door and got into the car. “Drive. Let’s have dinner. Then, we’ll head to the bar.”

Qi Le blinked at him, “Which way do I go?”

“Turn left once you’re out of the neighborhood.”

Qi Le nodded and slowly drove out.

“...” Ye Shuichuan said, “Drive faster ah. At this rate, it’s better if we walk.”

“...I don’t dare to.” Qi Le felt guilty. “Don’t look at me like that. I’ve lost my memory and forgotten how to drive.”

Ye Shuichuan nodded understandingly and directed him to the restaurant. After dinner, he wanted to show him the way to the bar but this time, a certain someone said that he wouldn’t drive no matter what, so Ye Shuichuan had no choice but to drive.

The two of them got out of the car and went into the bar. Qi Le glanced at the time. It was nearly 6:30 at the moment and the bar would be open soon. He and another pianist would take turns playing every week. Yesterday happened to be the weekend, so it was his turn this week. In addition to the dance floor, the bar had a stage, which was probably reserved for bands, models or dancers. The piano was inconspicuously placed in one corner of the stage. Sitting at the piano, it seemed like no one had noticed him at all. Besides, there weren’t many people during this hour, so his first day of work went very smoothly.

At 8 pm, the music became very lively. He went to the bar and sat down. Shen Shu and Baby Face had just arrived. The latter’s eyes were no longer red. He held a mirror and practiced expressionlessly. Occasionally, he would look at the door, then continued practicing.

The corners of Qi Le’s lips twitched at the sight. He was too lazy to bother about them, so he sat there and looked around. Then, he saw Ye Shuichuan smiling with a mic hanging around his neck. The ambiguous lighting fell on his face, making him appear even more like a seductive demon. He scratched his chin in confusion, “With those looks, why isn’t anyone chasing after my older brother? Or is it because of his personality? “

“How can there be no one?” Shen Shu laughed, “Many people are pursuing your older brother. What’s wrong with his personality? Isn’t his personality quite good?”

Isn’t he a little off his rocker... Qi Le lamented and thought about it. “Oh, that’s right. I remember that you stole his man, so he doesn’t have a boyfriend. So what happened to the man you stole from him? Where is he?”

“Your older brother has a boyfriend,” Shen Shu side-eyed him. “The person he was talking about wasn’t his boyfriend. Last time we got together to look at hotties, the man came up to us. Xiao Chuan said that the man liked him, but I said that he liked me. So, we bet 200 yuan. Then, I saw that he wanted to talk to your older brother, so I cut off the conversation in advance and dragged the man to bed. Your older brother got angry.”

Qi Le digested this information for a second. “So this is what he meant by stealing someone?” He paused, looking shocked, “You said he has a boyfriend?! Why haven’t I seen him? What kind of person is he?”

“He went on a business trip a few days ago. I think he should be back in the next few days. He’s good looking. As for his character...” Shen Shu searched for the right words to describe him, “I don’t exactly know what to say. You can see for yourself when he comes back.”

Qi Le looked at him in silence. Damn it! What do you mean by you "don’t exactly know what to say?" Don’t tell me he’s another nutjob!

As time passed, the number of guests in the bar increased significantly. Qi Le didn’t want to take up the seat at the bar so he went to the lounge instead. Shen Shu glanced at him and pulled Baby Face along. “Let’s go. I haven’t seen anyone good looking this whole time. Let’s play some cards. You haven’t forgotten how to play, have you?”

“...No.”

Baby Face, who was dragged by him, muttered in a low voice, “Gē, I still want to wait for Ning Xiao.”

“Go inside and practice. You can come out later.”

Baby Face thought that it would do as well, so he obediently followed. They entered the lounge and Shen Shu invited the people inside, “You don’t have to dance yet, right? Come, let’s play some cards.”

The others immediately gathered around happily. “Are we betting anything?”

Qi Le heard them clearly, his eyes shining brightly at once. He threw his wallet onto the table and said, “Let’s bet money. Laozi has to earn some living expenses!”

Shen Shu looked at him from the side, “...Are you sure?”

Gu Bai, held cat food as he sat on the carpet, having a face off with a certain kitty. After a long time, the Scottish fold cat finally couldn’t stand it anymore. It condescendingly lowered its dignity and reluctantly stretched out its claws, scratching him twice. It meowed softly. Gu Bai touched its head and asked lightly, “He didn’t come to feed you yesterday and today. Do you think he’s forgotten you?”

The Scottish fold cat scratched him twice again. This human had continuously fed it for fear that it would go hungry before, as if it were the only one left to accompany him in the world. However, in these past few days, he had gone back to his old ways and was even more ruthless than before. He wouldn’t feed it or let it fill its tummy!

Gu Bai stared at it, “Do you think I should call him to come and feed you?” The Scottish fold cat pawed him, Gu Bai stroked it twice. The kitty pawed, Gu Bai stroked, the kitty pawed, Gu Bai stroked... After repeating this several times, the Scottish fold cat resentfully pushed the hand touching its head to one side, turned and jumped into its nest, making a big fuss, “Meow, Meow, Meow!”
