Chapter 9: Story 70-79
Translator: Sissy That Walk
[70]
The habit of practicing driving skills after dinner was kept. Straight Guy’s driving skills became more and more proficient and his driving speed became faster and faster. But he still did not master how to brake and start the car smoothly.
When driving the car, Straight Guy would start the engine so abruptly that the car and the passengers would be on the verge of flying off. When stopping the car because of a roadblock ahead, he would press the brake so hard and so suddenly. The Glasses-guy had no doubt that without the tightly tied seat belt, his head would have crashed the windscreen several times due to the inertia.
This evening, once again Straight Guy was driving The Glasses-guy’s fancy car on the suburban road freely. Knowing The Glasses-guy buried himself in work in the daytime, and seeing him weakly leaning against the co-pilot seat, Straight Guy asked, “Upperclassman, are you ok?”
“I’m Ok.” The Glasses-guy opened the window to the maximum. “It just occurred to me that I’ve got other obligations tonight, I’m afraid I can’t accompany you practicing driving for long.”
“That’s ok. I’m driving very well now. Upperclassman, you see, the highest speed is enough to get myself a ticket.”
The Glasses-guy smiled, “You really progress fast.”
He used work as an excuse to drive the Straight Guy back home quickly. The Glasses-guy no sooner saw Straight Guy walk into the corridor than pushed the car door. He dashed out, and started to vomit by a tree.
He hadn’t suffered carsickness for a long time. What an interesting experience.
[71]
The day when the score of the college entrance examination was published was less thrilled than the day they estimated it. The three boys were admitted to the same university withoutsuspense. In September, they would meet the upperclassman at university.
As their upperclassman, The Glasses-guy felt he should treat the three underclassmen for dinner for either personal reason or hierarchy reason. But he did not know Straight Guy’s phone number so he asked Domineering Guy to convey it.
Domineering Guy’s message was very simple, “Zhou, come here to have a meal. Xx room xx restaurant xx road. Five o’clock.
Straight Guy rushed there and entered the room, finding that only The Glasses-guy sitting in the room. The waitress was so considerate that she closed the door to proof the outside noise.
Considering his roommates’ relationship, Straight Guy was sensitive about two boys in one room. He paused for two seconds and went blushed, “Upperclassman, why are you here? I…We….”
The Glasses-guy was confused and asked mildly, “What happened to you?”
Straight Guy, “I….”
Before Straight Guy finished his words, Domineering Guy came in holding his wify’s hand, “Sorry, we’re late.”
Straight Guy breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He did not dare to look at the Upperclassman and thought secretly, “I’m so impure. Why do I always think Upperclassman doing things with unspeakable motives?”
[72]
One day, The Domineering’s father inspected the library as work obligation. Domineering Guy happened to go to the bathroom, only Coquettish Guy and The Glasses-guy sitting in the corner. The Domineering’s father thought of the phone call with Ji Chen’s father and couldn’t help but look over there spontaneously.
The Domineering’s father thought, “Although the son of Family Ji separating with my son is good, I somehow felt unhappy for my son. The Glasses-guy is just a little taller and handsomer than my son, what else does he stand better than my son?”
After a while, Straight Guy came out from behind the bookshelf, holding a book and compliantly sitting beside The Glasses-guy.
The Domineering’s father frowned and felt sadder for his son.
[73]
At home, The Domineering’s father looked at his son who was facing the other way tapping the keyboard without distractions, feeling that he was like a DTA (doomed-to-be-alone) Otaku called by the young people. The Domineering’s father felt a bit complicated.
Expect for being gay, flawless was his son, moreover, his son’s college entrance examination scores brought credit for him.
Although he felt happy that his son absorbed himself in study, there was a big difference between being dumped and initiating the breakup. The Domineering’s father was a man of honor who could not afford a blow like this and thought his son must had been feeling depressed.
“Son, the exam is over. Do you want to go somewhere to have fun? Dad will take the time to take you on a trip with your mother.”
Domineering Guy paused, “No.”
The Domineering’s father, “Come on. Think more about it. When you feel exhausted in your senior year, which place do you want to relax at?”
“Oh, yes.”
“Ok, tell me.”
“… Chen’s bedroom”
And then Domineering Guy was punched by his father again.
[74]
The Domineering’s father decided to enrich his son’s experience, thinking that his son was fascinated by Ji Chen merely because he hadn’t seen many beautiful girls.
It happened that The Jis were throwing a wine party and invited him.
The Domineering’s father minded his son’s ex-boyfriend’s presence. But thinking of all the pretty girls in the party, The Domineering’s father joyfully took Domineering Guy to the party.
A professor’s daughter, beautiful and lovely, and about the same age with Domineering Guy came to the party. The Domineering’s father was gratified, “Son, it is high time that you should get to know some girls. From now on, you’ll find only girls attractive in the world.”
Domineering Guy, “Oh.”
Then, Ji Chen appeared. Domineering Guy showed interest in his wify undisguisedly, talking to Ji Chen all the time. Ji Chen stood a decent distance from him, and would only crack a hint of reserved smile when Domineering Guy was enraptured.
The Domineering’s father was about to lose temper and intended to look for a girl to distract his son, only to see the professor’s daughter took the mobile phone out, murmuring about something like domineering-loyal top and cold-coquettish bottom while snapped several candid shots with excitement.
The Domineering’s father shuddered and felt the time has changed indeed.
What a horrible girl.
[75]
What delighted The Domineering’s father was the professor’s daughter finally exchanged contact information with his son at the end of the party.
Watching his son lowering head to reply messages, The Domineering’s father was so glad that he rubbed his hands, “Son, what you are talking about with the girl?”
Domineering Guy wiggled his mobile phone and showed an innocent expression, “She wants to know how Chen and I fell in love.
[76]
The Glasses-guy was caught up with work and went back to school before the end of summer vocation.
Before leaving, he added Straight Guy as Wechat friend and said that he would offer a hand whenever Straight Guy is in need in the university. Meanwhile, Straight Guy finally got his driving license after a bumpy road. That delighted him a great deal. Straight Guy felt he should express gratitude to the Upperclassman no matter what. However, after experiencing that he was not aware of his two roommates had been in love for three years, Straight Guy felt worried about his EQ.
He thought he had better check with Upperclassman about his needs rather than just taking the liberty to buy a gift.
“Upperclassman, what gift do you want me to get for you?” after editing this sentence, Straight Guy pondered for a bit. “Texting the word ‘gift’ isn’t proper, I should delete the word, but isn’t it too direct by asking what do you want”. And he deleted….”
Straight Guy lost himself in contemplation, without noticing what he had deleted and where he had touched, and the message was sent unheedingly.
Then, on a enticing moonlit night, The Glasses-guy received a message from Straight Guy, “Upperclassman, do you want me….”
[77]
The Glasses-guy assigned Domineering Guy with some elementary jobs to practice with. Although Domineering Guy was a pampered child at home, he never complained about doing trivial things.
Domineering Guy was aware that in order to be with Chen, he could confront his father head on. But it did not mean that his father should understand him. In order to be with Chen, he must pay more efforts and prayed for more luck to overcome all conceivable blocks that he might encounter in the future.
However, no matter how determined he was, there would always be something beyond his ability. For instance, he wanted to live with Chen in one university dorm, but no way would his father allow him to tamper with dormitory allocation in secret. Domineering Guy was nervous when he opened the dormitory allocation table. He thought, “If Chen and I can’t live in the same dorm, I have to move out with Chen although I haven’t checked with Chen yet.”
Result…??? 601:Zhou Yang, Zhou Ming, Ji Chen and a vacancy.
Domineering Guy was petrified. Just then, the professor’s daughter sent a message, “You are welcome. I just sent fake information in the name of my father. I’m praying not to be caught.”
Domineering Guy, “Thanks a lot.”
The girl, “Can you tell me which skincare brand is Ji Chen using? His skin looks so smooth and tender.”
Domineering Guy, “…DNA.”
The girl, “Ok, fine.”
[78]
Living in one dorm with wify as he wished, Domineering Guy felt lucky and a bit complicated. He said to the professor’s daughter, “I really appreciate what you have done for us, but I really feel guilty about it. I’ll take full responsibility for any consequences.”
The girl sensed his guilty and she reassured him generously, “I’m helping you because I’m optimistic about you guys. Besides, allocating dorm is a random thing. I’m not violating other’s interest. And have I ever mentioned that you guys reminded me of a famous mountain?”
“No, what mountain?”
“Brokeback Mountain!” The girl was excited suddenly, “How well put it tht! Please let me see you guys live happily ever after.”
Domineering Guy, “Ok, fine.”
[79]
Straight Guy felt awkward when he realized he sent the message accidentally but he was in a daze for too long to withdraw it. Anyway, sending the legendary upperclassmen a message like that was improper.
Straight Guy was annoyed with himself and also felt worried. He searched on the Internet about “what should I do if I’ve accidentally sent a strange message”. Most answers were just for kicks and giggles. Only a few were helpful, for instance, “You can pretend your account was hacked by sending a message selling porn videos or scamming money immediately .”
Straight Guy clinched his teeth and thought he had to do this in order to restore dignity and clean the air. He sent The Glasses-guy another message, “Adding friends on Wechat, 888RMB one month, huge amounts of porn video, plus HD quality.”
The Glasses-guy replied immediately. And Straight Guy’s dialog box appeared transfer information, “Transfer 888RMB.”
Straight Guy’s knees softened abruptly, and he almost burst out in tears, “I’m sorry, upperclassman. I’m stupid and careless. I’m wrong. Kudos to you.”
The Glasses-guy smiled, “What a naïve young boy.”
