Changed Ending

After a wild night, Shen Ze did not want to move a single finger. Lu Shao had been far too relentless.

It was as if Lu Shao had wanted to make up for everything he had not gotten before. He only reluctantly let Shen Ze go after Shen Ze had cried out.

The Shen Household was getting anxious as well. Almost everyone had gotten up early that morning. With so much on their minds, how could they possibly rest easy?

Shen Father and Shen Mother were the most nervous. None of their sons had ever dated before, and this was their first time going through something like this. How could they not panic?

They worried that their son would be hurt and miserable if his confession failed, but if it succeeded, they felt as though their son had been completely wrapped around someone else's finger.

The brothers were also worried Shen Ze would be upset if he failed. After all, Shen Ze had harbored a crush for years. Still, they all shared one thought: if he failed, they would immediately introduce Shen Ze to several handsome men.

Shen Can only learned after waking up that Shen Ze had planned to confess last night. Yesterday's press conference was also a complete success. Things did not develop like they did in the Original Plot. Maybe Second Brother had the mood to confess after all. I just wonder what the result was.

Shen Can had no idea his inner thoughts had contributed to this. The Shen Household could not help thinking that if nothing had gone wrong in the Original Plot, perhaps Shen Ze would have confessed one day even without Shen Can's inner thoughts. But since it had not happened, they did not dwell on it.

By noon, they had even finished lunch, yet Shen Ze still had not sent them a message. They could not help growing anxious.

Could he really have failed? Had Shen Ze drowned his sorrows in alcohol? Otherwise, why had he not told them the result yet? Shen Ze knew they were waiting for news.

It was not as though they had never considered the possibility that he succeeded, but none of them was Lu Shao. They had no idea what Lu Shao was truly thinking.

Moreover, Lu Shao and Shen Ze mostly spent time together at school or elsewhere. Lu Shao did visit their home often, but perhaps because there were always other people around, their interactions had looked like those of close brothers to the Shen Household.

They really could not see anything unusual. Though there was some arm-around-the-shoulder behavior, plenty of brothers acted that way too. They did not know whether they should have minded it.

Fortunately, before Shen Yu left for work, Shen Ze finally sent them a message saying that he and Lu Shao were together.

The Shen Household was happy for Shen Ze, yet they also felt like a fine cabbage had been rooted up by a pig.

Then Lu Shao really isn't that straight. Shen Can smiled as he thought, Then Lu Shao really kept digging into what happened to Second Brother because he liked him.

In the Original Plot, he clearly liked him, yet was blinded by what was right in front of him. Not only did they miss each other for a lifetime, they ended up separated by life and death. What had Lu Shao been thinking back then? No one could know.

But fortunately, this time they finally avoided anything terrible. They even found happiness. Their ending has changed.

The Shen Household was relieved as well. As long as Shen Ze liked him, they would support him. Besides, Lu Shao truly was a good kid.

He treated them well too. Aside from the grievances Shen Ze had suffered because of his unrequited love, Lu Shao had always treated him very well.

Reassured, Shen Yu went to the company. He had already delayed for an entire morning, and he really could not put it off any longer. He had also been busy lately because of the new project.

Shen Chi headed out as well. This time, he was going to appear on a variety show. Though he was only a guest participant, he would still be away for several days.

Shen Yao quietly left too. He still had a mission to carry out and needed to gather more intelligence.

In the end, only Shen Father, Shen Mother, and Shen Can remained at home. Once Shen Father and Shen Mother relaxed and went out to water the flowers, Shen Can returned to his room. He already had a good idea for a game and needed to refine it further.

After sending the message, Shen Ze saw Lu Shao entering with a bowl of porridge. His face immediately turned red.

Last night, swept up in emotion, he had not thought about anything. He had only wanted to get closer and closer to Lu Shao, as though he wanted Lu Shao to swallow him whole.

Thinking back on every scene from last night, Shen Ze felt that he had been far too lacking in restraint.

"Feeling shy?" Lu Shao sat beside Shen Ze and smiled. Then he said, "What are you shy about? We will have plenty more moments like that. I loved every reaction you had last night, Xiao Ze."

Shen Ze shot Lu Shao an embarrassed glare. "Give me the porridge. It'll get cold soon." After saying that, Shen Ze waited for Lu Shao to hand it to him.

But Lu Shao did not. How could he possibly let his wife, who had been exhausted all night, hold up a bowl of porridge and feed himself? Of course Lu Shao should feed him.

Shen Ze did not insist on eating by himself. If Lu Shao wanted to feed him, then he would let him.

After eating, Shen Ze thought for a moment before saying to Lu Shao, "Rest a little longer. I'll go home around dinner."

There were still matters the Shen Household had not resolved. He could not move in with Lu Shao right away.

If he moved out, he would have to wait for his family to notify him about everything, and he would always be one step behind.

And what if his family did not want to disturb his life with Lu Shao and kept certain things from him?

Naturally, Lu Shao agreed. He and Shen Ze had only just gotten together. No one moved in together immediately after they started dating, right? Even if he and Shen Ze had known each other for years, it still would not do.

Otherwise, he was genuinely afraid the Shen Household would beat him up. Even he would not be able to accept it. If he had a younger brother who wanted to move out and live with his boyfriend after dating for only one day, he would probably beat the boyfriend who had encouraged his brother to death.

"You can definitely go home, but you have to agree to let me visit you often. And occasionally, you need to make time to come out and do some private things with me." Lu Shao wrapped an arm around Shen Ze's waist, demanding that Shen Ze guarantee his happy nightlife for the foreseeable future.

Could Shen Ze refuse? Besides, he did not want to refuse. He was an adult man with needs too. Before they had gotten together, he could endure it. But after getting together, how could he possibly endure it?

That evening, when Shen Can saw Shen Ze return home and noticed the way he walked, he thought, Wow, it looks like last night was intense. Even Second Brother walks...

"Can Can! Second Brother brought you cake from that dessert shop you like, and I also got you your favorite fruit tea." Shen Ze immediately spoke up to cut off Shen Can's inner thoughts. Fortunately, he had come prepared.

That way, if Can Can thought of something shocking, he would not have to interrupt him so abruptly. Although it was awkward now too, it was still much better than cutting him off so bluntly.

At that moment, Lu Shao could not help admiring how clever his wife was. Though Lu Shao himself was thick-skinned and did not mind saying such things, Shen Ze would definitely be embarrassed.

What else could the Shen Household say? They could only pretend they had heard nothing and noticed nothing. Were they supposed to comment on the private affairs of a young couple?

Since Shen Chi had gone away to film a variety show and Shen Yao had gone out and not returned yet, only Shen Father, Shen Mother, Shen Yu, Shen Can, Shen Ze, and Lu Shao were present for dinner.

But Lu Shao was already familiar with everyone, so he did not say anything about the family not being complete for his first meal at their home after officially getting together with Shen Ze. Naturally, the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

At the dinner table, Shen Yu asked Lu Shao whether there was anything he wanted to do. Lu Shao said he was already making plans.

Before, he had been alone and did not care how he lived. What did it matter whether he achieved anything? As long as he had money to spend, that was enough. But now, things were different.

After dinner, Lu Shao gave Shen Can the gift he had not given him yesterday. It was the key to a sports car, and he said someone would deliver the car to Shen Can tomorrow.

Shen Can wanted to refuse, but Shen Ze told him to accept it, so he took it and said, "Thank you, Second Brother-in-law."

Shen Can had deliberately called him that, and it truly struck Lu Shao right in the heart. But Lu Shao was afraid Shen Ze would be embarrassed afterward, so he told Shen Can to just call him Brother Lu from then on.

That night, while Shen Can was playing on his phone before bed, several bank deposit notifications suddenly popped up. At the same time, he received messages from his three brothers saying they did not know what gift to give him, so he should just buy whatever he liked.

He knew that even if he returned the money, they would transfer it back to him anyway, so he accepted it. Later, he could prepare return gifts for them.
