[53]
Coquettish Guy’s eighteenth birthday was around the corner. They all sensed it was high time something should happen. Domineering Guy ordered a birthday cake long before the birthday, but he somehow disappeared and asked Straight Guy to get the cake.
Coquettish Guy and Straight Guy waited for him in the dormitory from morning to dusk. Coquettish Guy felt blue, “Zhou, let’s cut the cake. You eat first. I’ll make a phone call.”
Straight Guy comforted him, “Don’t worry. Boss will definitely come back for your birthday. He must be delayed.”
Coquettish Guy said with a wry smile, “I know he will return but I’m afraid bad things happened to him.”
When the night was getting dark, Domineering Guy finally came back with an injury on the corner of his mouth. Straight Guy was dozing on the chair with the cutting cake knife in hand. Seeing Domineering Guy, Coquettish Guy stood up abruptly, stared at him and promptly ran up to hug him.
Domineering Guy immediately stretched out his arms and cuddled Coquettish Guy. Being touched on the back, Domineering Guy moaned in a low voice, “Ah, Honey, gentle.”
Coquettish Guy said nervously, “What happened to you?”
Domineering Guy smiled, “If you kiss me, I’ll tell you.”
[54]
Coquettish Guy and Domineering Guy were aware that The Domineering’s father didn’t act rashly thanks to the college entrance examination. But that didn’t mean they got his approval, nobody could predict what would happen after the examination.
Although Domineering Guy acted tough in front of his father, being a student, he clearly understood that he didn’t have much leverage to fight against his father head-on. Moreover, he even did not know whether Ji Chen would be admitted to the same collage. So, Domineering Guy must get a death-free gold medal, which was his father’s Achilles’ heels.
Domineering Guy knew his father had an opportunity for promotion and could not afford to expose any problem to the public at this key point.
“Pa. If you promise me one thing, I’ll promise you one thing.”
“Ridiculous. I don’t need anything from you.”
“I promise not to tell your rival that your son is gay.”
“Are you crazy?” The Domineering’s father’s face changed immediately.
Domineering Guy expressed an innocent smile, “You see, an obedient gay is better than a crazy gay. Frankly speaking, if you intend to separate us, I can’t do anything about it. But, you know, a person who feels insecure may go to extremes. So, I need your promise.”
The Domineering’s father looked at the young man who was as tall as him and showed a complicated expression, “I can give you an oral promise. But it’s useless. I still can keep him out of school afterwards.”
“No.” Domineering Guy waggled his phone, “I’ve recorded our conversation. Dad, you do not want this record to be exposed in any form.”
The Domineering’s father was so angry that he punched his son. That delighted Domineering Guy. He told his father, “In light of your generosity, I’ll tell you some good news. I left Zhou Yang. From now on, I’m loyal to Chen. If anything should be exposed, it would not be a triangle love scandal. Does that make you happier, dad?”
[55]
The family, no, the three boys happily celebrated Coquettish Guy’s birthday in the dormitory.
It took Domineering Guy less than three seconds to turn on his restless mode, he kept staring at Coquettish Guy while eating the cake. Seeing that, Straight Guy felt that the Boss was treating Chen as an appetizer rather than eating the cake. And then, Straight Guy voluntarily gulped down the Chines liquor prepared before the birthday, he blacked out immediately.
Domineering Guy confirmed the light was off and dashed to the sweetheart (Coquettish Guy) and kissed him, “Sorry, Chen, this is all I can do for now.” Domineering Guy said, “I’ll try hard. I believe my parents will accept us.”
Ji Chen was emotional as well, gently stroking Domineering Guy’s injured place, “It’s okay if they oppose us. I don’t care. Really.”
Domineering Guy grabbed Coquettish Guy’s hands instantly, “So…So…Em…We….”
Then they slept together.
However, their charming night life came to an end when, Domineering Guy couldn’t help but scream miserably upon the touch by Ji Chen on the back. Ji Chen freed himself from Domineering Guy, “Forget it. Let me get some medicinal oil for you first.”
Domineering Guy almost burst into tears, “No. No. No. Go on. Chen. Give me one more chance….”
Ji Chen warmed the medicinal oil and rubbed it on Domineering Guy’s back. Domineering Guy couldn’t resist the sexual desire again… “Come on. No need to hurry…Days and years are ahead us.” Ji Chen whispered the last sentence with such a low voice that almost no one could hear him.
[56]
Straight Guy was in a complicate mood. He purposely avoided watching the awkward intimate scene of his roommates. However, what agonized him was he waked up after a brief blackout due to the adulterated liquor. And he decided to fake the blackout in view of there was already noise arising from his bedside.
What scared him most was the moan sounded like the boss instead of Ji Chen.
Hearing this, Straight Guy was not feeling excited or bashful like he was supposed to, he panicked gradually instead. Why did the moan come from Boss? Why?
The next day, he observed Coquettish Guy carefully, feeling that Coquettish Guy didn’t look like he was trampled on, that confirmed his hallucinating assumption to seventy percent. He couldn’t help but pry into Domineering Guy, “Boss…Last night, did you feel painful?”
Domineering Guy was shocked, “Ah, how did you know?”
Straight Guy shuddered. He never thought gay’s world was so mysterious. “It makes sense that Chen is the bottom one, who will imagine Domineering Guy to be the bottom one. How awesome is Chen!” He thought to himself.
[57]
Time to move out from the dorm with college entrance examination coming to an end.
When packing up, they all sighed with emotion. Domineering Guy and Coquettish Guy stared at each other and hugged together after leaping across packed luggage on the floor. Soon after, they looked at Straight Guy at the same time, “Zhou, come here.”
Straight Guy hesitated for half a second, “Is this a friendship hug?”
They burst out laughing. Each stretched out one arm and pulled Straight Guy towards them.
They finally graduated from high school.
[58]
After estimating a high score for college entrance examination, Domineering Guy became undisciplined at home. The Domineering’s father was annoyed by his arrogant attitude, but there was nothing he could do. Hearing his father uncontrollably snort for the eighth time, Domineering Guy made a request skillfully, “I plan to travel with Chen for a few days and will come back when the score gets published.”
The Domineering’s father wanted to beat his son again, “Allowing you two applying for the same collage is a compromise already. Don’t get insatiable.”
“So, you are forbidding me from meeting Chen for two months. Aren’t you afraid that two months’ separation makes the heart grow fonder when the college term begins?”
The Domineering’s father was dumbfounded, “Why do I have a son like you?”
“A good son?”
“Get out! Get out!”
“Ah. Ah. I’ll take that as a yes, dad.”
[59]
The Domineering’s father altered to The Jis’ now that he failed to stop his own son. He made a phone call. After the greetings to Ji Chen’s father, “Old Ji, I heard my son has been disturbing Ji Chen in the past few days.”
Old Ji was confused, “Are you sure? Did you misunderstand something? After the exam, my son has been learning something with an upperclassman. I didn’t saw him playing with your son.”
The Domineering’s father changed his face, “Really?”
“I won’t lie to you. He’s been out almost every day andthey won’t be finished any time soon.”
At dinner, seeing his son crestfallen, The Domineering’s father intentionally provoked him in an indirect way due to his wife’s presence, “What happened? Why didn’t go out with your friends now that the exam is over?”
Domineering Guy weakly threw his dad a disdainful look. That amused The Domineering’s father “Son, the exam is over. You have to relax yourself. If you lack money, just ask. Don’t be shy.”
Domineering Guy, “….”
The Domineering’s father helped him with some green vegetable, “Don’t be in a daze. Have some veggie, cuckoo likes this veggie as well..
Domineering Guy, “….”
[60]
Knowing that his son absorbed himself in City Library every day after being dumped, The Domineering’s father felt totally relived and buried himself in work.
In the library, the three roommates sat together, a refined yet quite tall boy sat across them. He wore a pair of glasses, just a frame without lens if a closer look was taken, probably just to add the refining appeal. “You don’t even rest in the holiday after the senior year. Too ambitious.” The Glasses-guy said. (In China, in order to preparing for the college entrance examination, students study very hard in the senior year. After the exam, most students choose to take a good rest in the holiday)
“Mastering some skills earlier is good. In the future, I can do what I want.”
“You just want be with your boyfriend.” The Glasses-guy pointed out Domineering Guy’s intention accurately.
“Is it hard to find?” Domineering Guy gave an angry stare.
The Glasses-guy sneered suddenly and turned to Straight Guy, “Boy, are you their friend in disguise? Or, you are this scumbag’s concubine?”
Straight Guy trembled, “No, I’m not. I just want to learn coding from you, our legendary upperclassman”
[61]
“Class is over.” With a cough, Domineering Guy held Coquettish Guy’s hands for their daily intimacy.
Coquettish Guy was about to speak but silenced, it seemed like he felt embarrassed to neglect the other two people so obviously, “Zhou Yang, don’t go back too late. It may rain today.”
Straight Guy grinned, showing that he was fine, “If it rains, I can go home by taxi. Now, go! Not so much time left.”
Domineering Guy was moved very much and praised, “Wow, Zhou, such a good boy.” And then he received a punch from Coquettish Guy.
Seeing them leaving, The Glasses-guy turned back, as if saying to himself or Straight Guy, “There are many roads in the world. Why do they choose the hardest one to walk on?”
“Zhou Ming and Chen are true love.”
“Um…You know what I am talking about….” The Glasses-guy seemed just come to realize Straight Guy’s presence, he cracked a smile, “You are more sophisticated than you look.”
Straight Guy was about to ask whether he looked stupid when The Glasses-guy already stood up and groomed his cuffs, “Let’s go. It’s going to rain. I’ll drive you home.”
