"This is my first time visiting your place. It's quite clean and tidy. No wonder you're single."
Wu You'an led the way. "Thank you so much. Leave the chickens and ducks in the toilet for now. This is the first time I've ever seen someone deliver chickens and ducks like this. You really don't follow the usual path, Qin Feiyue."
Qin Feiyue casually glanced around, trying to find the mechanism his younger brother had mentioned.
But he couldn't make it too obvious.
After putting his things down, Qin Feiyue introduced him, "This is my boyfriend, Zhong Qijiu."
Although Zhong Qijiu had washed his hands, he only offered a gentle smile and did not extend his hand, "Hello."
Wu You'an glanced at him, but couldn't discern anything unusual; there was no trace of acting. The only difference was that he was half a head shorter Qin Feiyue.
"Your boyfriend is quite handsome, but didn't you say before that you're straight?" Wu You'an forgot to shake hands with the person who had just introduced himself, and was now looking the two of them up and down.
" Qin Feiyue, I'm a performing arts major, don't lie to me."
What good would it do me to lie to you?
"That's true. But since you've come all this way, what are you going to do with these chickens and ducks?"
Qin Feiyue shook his head. "I don't know, I'm only responsible for buying them."
Wu You'an: "..."
He then looked at Zhong Qijiu, Zhong Qijiu returned his smile and told him, "I'm sorry, I don't know how to handle this either."
Wu You'an almost forgot his persona. "Alright, I'll see what to do later. What would you like to drink?"
Qin Feiyue: "Walnut milk!"
Zhong Qijiu: "+1"
Wu You'an: "Okay, you can sit down first."
After he turned and left, Qin Feiyue asked helplessly, "You like to drink it too?"
Zhong Qijiu nodded with a smile.
Qin Feiyue frowned. "No, what's wrong with you? It's one thing to stand guard at the door when you go to the toilet, but now you insist on eating the same things every time."
Zhong Qijiu: "Brother Feiyue, I'm your boyfriend. Can't I be with you?"
Qin Feiyue slapped his forehead. "..." I almost forgot.
"Brother Feiyue, can I have a kiss?"
Qin Feiyue's eyes widened. "No, no, no, can you not get so into it? Today is just work."
Zhong Qijiu: "No, then Feiyue, hug me."
Qin Feiyue saw Wu You'an approaching, gritted his teeth, endured the humiliation, and pulled him into his arms.
He said in a hoarse voice, "Stop making a scene."
Zhong Qijiu nuzzled his neck with his fluffy head. "Mmm, Feiyue- gege."
Luo Beishi was on the other end of the monitor, was so surprised that his jaw almost dropped.
Qin Feiyue, don't you see how red your ears are? You still dare to call yourself a straight man!
Wu You'an's figure reappeared on the screen.
"Isn't this inappropriate? Coming to someone's door and feeding them dog food, that's going too far." Wu You'an appeared with a smile, but his hands behind his back were clenched into fists, his knuckles white.
Luo Beishi certainly didn't miss this scene. Goodness, this guy is the epitome of a straightforward, innocent white lotus!
At first, I really thought he was the easygoing type, but it turns out... he's a completely different, innocent type!
"Thank you, Xiao'an." Zhong Qijiu turned his head but didn't get out of Qin Feiyue's arms. He reached out and took the two bottles of walnut milk from Qin Feiyue's hand.
Wu You'an frowned almost imperceptibly. "Well, you're welcome. Walnut milk is what Feiyue and Feilin like to drink, so I always keep some on hand, hoping they'd come over someday. But this guy, he's gone and hidden away in the deep mountains and forests. I've only seen him once in all these years. Back then, we even filmed a music video together..."
Zhong Qijiu smiled, but interrupted him with a slightly pitiful tone, "I really envy Xiao'an, getting to know Brother Feiyue so early..."
The two people outside the screen
Luo Beishi: "..."
Huo Cixiao: "..."
It's alright, it's still within their acceptable range. The main problem is Qin Feiyue, his neck is all red, can't he be a little more dignified?
This is acting, it's all an act!
Back in the shot
Qin Feiyue looked at Wu You'an apologetically and chuckled twice, "Sorry, my boyfriend is a little clingy, don't mind him."
Wu You'an nodded and sat down on the sofa opposite them. "Of course I don't mind. Your boyfriend is also my friend. May I ask where this Xiao Zhong works?"
Zhong Qijiu inserted the straw into the milk carton, smelled the aroma through the straw, and took a sip. "My family owns a small company, and I work there."
Wu You'an nodded. "Could I ask what kind of business you conduct? There are many things I don't understand, so I'd like to ask. Haha, of course, it's okay if you don't tell me."
Zhong Qijiu: "I provide funeral services."
Qin Feiyue: "..."
Wu You'an: "..." I should have known better than to ask!
"What's wrong? Xiao'an, you don't also think I'm not good enough for Brother Feiyue, do you? I think so too..." Zhong Qijiu sighed deeply and opened another bottle for Qin Feiyue.
Qin Feiyue listened to Zhong Qijiu's voice, and it didn't sound like acting at all... Could it be that Xiao Zhong really is...? Thinking about it, Xiao Zhong always wore a black suit, and his eyes couldn't hide his loneliness.
Thinking about it now, he's really not human! He always talks to Xiao Zhong so loudly!
He didn't have many friends, and neither did Xiao Zhong! No wonder Xiao Zhong was so clingy; she considered him a friend.
Seeing Qin Feiyue, which was written all over his face, Wu You'an couldn't help but purse his lips slightly before regaining his composure.
"Ha, Xiao Zhong, it's okay. Funeral companies are doing well these days, there's no shortage of market demand... it's pretty good." Wu You'an practically bit his tongue before he could say that. What a load of rubbish, no shortage of market demand.
Zhong Qijiu ignored Wu You'an's words, "Brother Feiyue, drink it, walnut milk. I won't force you to drink anything I've already drunk, I..."
Qin Feiyue thought to himself that Xiao Zhong had never pressured him before, so this was Xiao Zhong testing their friendship!
He gritted his teeth, grabbed the bottle Zhong Qijiu, and began to sip.
Wu You'an looked at the two people in front of him, raised the corners of his mouth, took two deep breaths, and asked, " Feiyue, aren't you a germaphobe?"
Hearing Wu You'an's words, Qin Feiyue stopped, realizing he had finished the whole bottle in one gulp... feeling a little embarrassed, he said, " Xiao Jiu, you can drink mine."
Then he replied to Wu You'an, " Xiao'an, I'm sorry, my Xiao Jiu is usually... a bit emotionally fragile. It's best if you don't ask about him..."
Listening to Qin Feiyue's nonsensical answer, Wu You'an said cautiously yet through gritted teeth, "Fine, then we can talk about something else. By the way, I saw your older brother a few days ago."
Qin Feiyue then wrapped his arms around Zhong Qijiu, giving him a sense of security, and Zhong Qijiu nestled against him in return. The two were inseparable, clinging to each other as if they were destined to never be apart.
Seeing this, Wu You'an could only suppress his anger with a smile.
Qin Feiyue: "Oh, him? That's none of my business. I don't want to know anything about the Qin Family's affairs in the future."
