[Oh my god! It's self-destructing!]
[Holy crap! This was designed by Duan Xu? Or did Duan Xu plagiarize it?]
[Holy crap, after all this time, I thought it was a company bullying college students, but it turns out it was a classmate betraying me?]
[Hmm... I don't think Duan Xu is the type to plagiarize.]
[This isn't a matter of resemblance; we need to look at the evidence, not just rely on subjective guesses.]
Zhao Gan: [Many people have probably checked the basic information about Summit Technology. The company was registered three days after I submitted my entry for the competition. It's obvious who copied whom.]
[Hiss--So, it really wasn't Zhao who plagiarized?]
[This is a well-reasoned and supported argument; I side with Zhao.]
[No way? Duan Xu really plagiarized? Tsk tsk, isn't this ruining his own reputation? And dragging the school heartthrob down with him!]
If Duan Xu really did plagiarize, then the school heartthrob should break up with him immediately; don't be with a plagiarist!
Duan Xu got home that night, he sent the necessary evidence to Xue Jingshu, then browsed the forum and happened to see the whole drama that Zhao Gan had orchestrated.
"Yan-ge, everyone on the forum is advising you to break up with me." Duan Xu leaned on Shen Yanlang's shoulder, complaining to him with a wronged expression.
Shen Yanlang looked up from the notebook, his brows furrowing slightly. "Let me see."
They've recently finalized the game's direction and completed the planning; they're currently working hard on the code, so Shen Yanlang didn't browse the forums with Duan Xu.
Duan Xu handed him the phone, Shen Yanlang quickly flipped through it. The more he flipped, the more his brows furrowed, and the angrier he became. He directly mocked, "Hmph, even Oscar actor can't compare to his superb acting skills."
"Haha..." Duan Xu was amused.
However, he wasn't really aggrieved just now; he just wanted to act cute with Shen Yanlang. After all, those people on the forum were just looking for trouble and didn't think before they spoke, so there was no need to take them to heart.
Shen Yanlang put down his phone and saw Duan Xu smiling so happily. His brows immediately relaxed, and he reached out to pinch Duan Xu's cheek. "Aren't you upset anymore?"
"I feel wronged." Duan Xu nodded very seriously, and complained, "Zhao Gan was the one who plagiarized, but now many people are saying that I'm the one who plagiarized. I feel extremely wronged."
As he spoke, Duan Xu pursed his lips, looking as if he had suffered a great injustice.
However, in Shen Yanlang's eyes, this was simply too cute to be true.
[Xuxu, get ready, I'm going to kiss you.]
Duan Xu was stunned. "Huh?"
Then Shen Yanlang took the laptop off his lap and placed it on the bedside table, then sat back down, reached out and pushed him down onto the bed.
"Mmm..." Duan Xu was pinned down and kissed squarely, leaving him completely dazed.
When Shen Yanlang released him, Duan Xu finally realized what was happening and said irritably, "We're talking about serious matters, no kissing."
Shen Yanlang chuckled, "You're so cute, I couldn't help it."
[I still kind of want to have sex.]
Duan Xu: "..."
"Shen Rascal, do you believe I'll make you sleep on the sofa tonight?" Duan Xu said, thinking he sounded very fierce.
Shen Yanlang coughed lightly, released Duan Xu, and pulled him up to sit up. He readily agreed, "I won't kiss him anymore, and I don't want to think about it anymore, okay?"
"Hmph, that's more like it!" Duan Xu said smugly, his eyebrows radiating an air of triumph.
Shen Yanlang was itching to see it, but he resisted thinking too much about it and then took out his phone. "I'll go check out the forum."
"What do you want to do?" Duan Xu immediately moved next to him, craning his neck forward. "You don't want to start a shouting match with those people, do you?"
"No, I was just expressing my thoughts," Shen Yanlang said.
Duan Xu looked at him suspiciously, not quite believing him, but didn't say anything for the time being, and looked down at Shen Yanlang.
Shen Yanlang opened the post and replied, typing. "[We won't break up. We're already engaged. We'll get married after graduation, and we'll never break up or get divorced.]"
Just as Shen Yanlang was about to click send, Duan Xu swiftly snatched the phone, deleted it in Duan Xu seconds, and then exited the forum.
"Xuxu?" Shen Yanlang looked at him, puzzled.
Duan Xu handed the phone back to him and explained seriously, "They don't know now, but they'll find out when the results come out. Don't worry about them."
"Besides, you're so busy right now, don't think about these upsetting things, it's too much of a hassle!"
Shen Yanlang paused for a moment upon hearing this, then said, "They said you plagiarized and even advised us to break up. I'm not happy about that."
"Well..." Duan Xu, then gave Shen Yanlang, tilting his head to ask, "Are you happy now?"
Shen Yanlang's eyes darkened, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Still unhappy."
Duan Xu understood and gave him another kiss, but as he tried to pull away, Shen Yanlang pressed the back of his head and gave him a deep kiss.
[Xuxu, remember to do this next time you take the initiative, that will make me happy.]
While kissing him, Shen Yanlang was mentally instructing Duan Xu.
Duan Xu couldn't speak, he could only grunt twice to indicate that he understood.
But what I was really thinking was: Shen Rascal is definitely doing this on purpose; he just wants to French kiss me!
After the kiss ended, Shen Yanlang looked at Duan Xu with desire in his eyes. He said in a hoarse voice, "I'm still not happy. I might need more comforting."
As he said this, he even released a little of his pheromones.
Duan Xu: "..."
"You think you can get laid? No way!" Duan Xu pushed Shen Yanlang away and covered the back of his neck.
Shen Yanlang was taken aback, then said in a deep voice, "Trying to seduce? Who taught you that?"
"You taught me," Duan Xu matter-of-factly.
Shen Yanlang: "..."
The two were flirting and teasing each other, causing quite a stir in the company group chat.
Gao Huhao: [This is absolutely amazing! With such a talent for writing, why doesn't he become a screenwriter?]
Ye Xinyu: [Being an actor is also a good career path.]
Du Shen: [Heh, if he were an actor, I'd have my dad blacklist him in a heartbeat!]
Han Xi: [...]
Zhou Zhou: [What's most infuriating is that they even dragged Xuxu into it! They're shameless, being classmates!]
Xiao Xu: [I see so many people advising Yan-ge to break up, it's like they've lost their minds.]
Feng Jie: [Now that the school heartthrob has broken up, they have a chance.]
Xue Jingshu: [A chance to go to jail? Ha!]
Duan Xu: [Jing-ge, you seem like a domineering CEO. Oh, you are a domineering CEO now.]
Han Xi: [Laughing. jpg]
Duan Xu: [Little Xi, this emoji doesn't suit you, it ruins your persona.]
Han Xi: [...]
Du Shen: [Where have you two been? We've been asking you for ages before you finally showed up!]
Zhou Zhou: [Of course, I'll do what I love! squinting
Shen Yanlang: [@Xue Jingshu, have you submitted the materials? When will the announcement be released?]
Xue Jingshu: [Tomorrow afternoon at the latest.]
Zhou Zhou: [Should we go to the forum to help Xuxu fight back? Those people are so infuriating!]
