The day passed quickly. Qi Le felt that his brain was swollen from all the studying and he wished he could gobble up all these books. Gu Bai looked at him and said, âTake a rest if youâre tired.â
âItâs okay, thereâs still a lot to study...â Qi Le rubbed his face and was ready to go again. But at this moment, he heard his cellphone ring. He looked at it and found that it was Ye Shuichuan so he pressed the answer button. âHello, ge.â
âItâs brother-in-law.â Zhong Ruiyuan asked happily, âAre you free? Come out for a drink. Your friend is here too.â
Qi Le was suspicious, âWhich friend?â
âThe one who said he needs love last time,â Zhong Ruiyuan said with a smile, "My friend met him last night and was quite satisfied. Heâs coming to have a drink tonight to get to know each other. Weâll be at the bar that your older brother works at. Are you coming?â
Qi Le was surprised. âAre they on a blind date?â
âNot really, they confirmed their relationship yesterday.â
After only one meeting, theyâve confirmed their relationship... Qi Leâs face was full of black lines. He asked hopelessly, âDid my friend decide on it first?â
âYes. Are you coming?â
After struggling for a moment, Qi Le couldnât resist his curiosity and nodded. âIâll drop by to take a look and then leave.â
"Sure, up to you.â
Qi Le hung up the call and got up to leave. Gu Bai looked at him, âWhere are you going?â
âTo the bar. Iâll come back immediately. You donât have to send me there.â
âI donât have anything on anyways. Iâll go with you.â Gu Bai said, pulling him out the door in a good mood. âIâll also declare ownership at the same time.â
Qi Le, â......â
The both of them soon arrived at the bar. Shen Shu and the others sat at the bar as usual and were surprised to see them. Although they were always together, they didnât look as close before. Now, everyone could tell they were a pair as long as they had eyes. Ning Xiao sat on the sofa silently watching them. Before this, he felt that there wasnât anything between the two. After all, Gu Baiâs look had always been very indifferent, but today it was different. There was a hint of a smile in his eyes. It was obvious that he had finally caught Qi Le. Ning Xiaoâs gaze suddenly turned cold. He knew that if he went up to him now it would only be self-defeating. So, he finished the drink on the table, got up and left.
Ye Shuichuan was greeting his boyfriend and his friend. When he saw them coming, his eyes lit up instantly. He stepped forward and drew Qi Le aside. âXiaoyuan, you guys are together?â
Qi Le nodded, âWe are.â
Ye Shuichuan gave him a joy-filled kiss. âAttaboy!â
At the sight of that, Gu Baiâs eyes grew cold and he pulled his wife into his arms, wiping his face. âI know youâre his older brother, but please control yourself. Heâs mine now. Donât simply kiss him.â
Ye Shuichuan smiled even wider and wasnât angry at all. âOkay.â
Qi Le pursed his lips, ignored them, his eyes sweeping across. Besides his brother-in-law and the hot-blooded doctor, there was another man, who didnât look older than 30, sitting on the sofa. He appeared very gentle. On the bridge of his tall, fine nose was a pair of glasses. The eyes behind those lenses were long and narrow, beautiful and bewitching. His gaze was calm and collected with a sense of tranquility. Just by looking at him... he seemed quite normal.
He shed tears inside. Damn it, judging by these peopleâs appearance alone, they all looked normal too ah.
The hot-blooded doctor was very happy to see him. He quickly got up and went over. âGreat, youâre here.â
Qi Le drew him aside and whispered, âWhatâs wrong with him?â
âI also want to ask you that. You donât you know?â
âI donât.â Qi Le asked, âWhat did you talk about when you met yesterday? Why did he agree so easily? â
âHe didnât speak much,â the doctor said. âHe made me wear something on my head, took a look, said a few words, and then left.â
â...â Qi Leâs mouth couldnât help twitching. âWhat was it?â
âA pair of cat ears.â
Qi Le, â......â
âDonât look at him like that,â said the doctor in a hushed voice. âI asked him and he said that he wasnât into SM. So far, I havenât seen anything unusual about him. He isnât lying, is he?â
âAre you stupid? Whatâs the point in him lying?â Qi Le said in a low voice after taking a look behind him. âItâs still not too late to regret. Letâs go now. Donât put yourself in this situation for that disturbing cause. Itâs too much of a tragedy.â
âNo, this isnât the most tragic part. The tragedy is that Iâm actually straight.â
Qi Le, â......â
âBut it doesnât matter,â the doctor solemnly. âIf he really isnât normal, Iâll make him normal. Then, itâll be alright. â
Qi Le, â......â
As soon as the doctor finished speaking, he went back to sit down. Qi Le struggled for a moment before going over and taking a seat as well. Gu Bai was already sitting down and chatting with them. Seeing him come over, he got him to sit beside him and pulled him into his arms. Qi Le looked at the situation in surprise. âYou know him?â
âMmm, weâve met a few times before.â
Qi Le was silent and suddenly remembered that Gu Bai had met Lu Yanbin several times before as well. But he had been with Erquan for so many years, he should be normal ah!
Gu Bai glanced at him, âWhatâs wrong?â
Qi Le forced himself to calm down. âAre you friends with my brother-in-law?â
âNo, I only got to know him recently.â
Qi Le was relieved. As to why he met those two, he could ask later. He observed quietly and saw the man ask the doctor, âShall we go get a room?â
Qi Le, â......â
The doctor froze then took out a small notebook to write on and looked at him. âWe just met.â
âMmm, Iâm quite satisfied with your looks. Do you want to see if we have sexual chemistry? Shall we go?â
âToo impatient,â the doctor scribbled. âWe should take it slow and first see if our personalities are compatible or not. Then, we can consider other things.â
He nodded and chatted with him. After a while, he asked again, âShall we get a room?â
âThis isnât right,â the doctor advised patiently. âI said that we should take it slow. Plus, indulging too much in that will only hurt the body. You have to do it in moderation, get it?â
âItâs been more than a year since Iâve had sex,â the man said lightly. âIâm more selective.â
The doctor scribbled some more, chatted with him and asked several questions. He still thought that the man was rather normal.
Then, the man took a sip of his drink and asked again, âShall we get a room?â
The doctor looked at his small notebook, then at the man, and finally gritted his teeth. âLetâs go.â
Qi Le almost spit out his drink. He quickly pulled a certain someone to the corner. âAre you crazy?!"
âI just want to know if his sexual preferences are normal or not.â
âYou donât have to do this!â Qi Le stared at him suspiciously, thinking to himself, was this person also a nutjob?
âDonât worry, itâll be alright,â the doctor leaned over and pulled out a small self-defense electric baton from his pocket, grinning triumphantly. âSee what this is?â
Qi Le, â......â
Fuck! Was he really a doctor?!
The doctor patted him on the shoulder and went back to the man. Seeing that he held out his hand, the doctor calmly stretched out and offered his hand to him, the two affectionately walking out of the bar hand in hand. Qi Le silently looked at the door and glanced at Zhong Ruiyuan. âBrother-in-law, that friend of yours... is there anything weird about him?â
âNo, heâs normal.â
Laozi doesnât believe you... Qi Le looked at him again. âDoes he have any special hobbies? How is his character?â
âAre you afraid that your friend will be bullied? Donât worry,âZhong Ruiyuan comforted gleefully. âIâve always had a good impression towards this friend, and he has a strong family background and good skills. If anyone bullies your friend, he will certainly not stand by idly.â
Qi Le responded after a momentâs pause, â......Good skills?â
âWell, heâs Sanda master, very strong... Whatâs the matter?â
â...â Qi Le recalled that idiot doctorâs phone number had long been thrown away by him so he couldnât contact him either. He clutched his fragile heart, âItâs... itâs okay...â He paused slightly, âIs he a rich second generation or official second generation? If heâs so amazing, why does he need your help to introduce someone to him?"
âHe said that he wanted to settle down and asked me to look out. In fact, there are a lot of people who like him. He dated a few people before, but in the end, they ran away without any rhyme or reason. He doesnât know why as well.â
Qi Le, â......â
