Xie Zhongxing did very well in the exam this time and he was awarded a large amount of money because of that.

Because his alma mater was a new school that had only been established three years ago, they highly valued this achievement of his and gave him six hundred thousand. On top of that, the city had rewarded him two hundred thousand and the county gave him a hundred thousand. Even the town he was born and raised in awarded him a hundred thousand yuan.All these added up to a total of one million.When the principal gave him this reward money, he was smiling so brightly, his eyes were crescent shaped. He even secretly stuffed him an extra five thousand from his own pocket. Although he was just a hired staff, for a provincial top student to appear during the time he is employed would mean that he would also receive a considerable amount of reward.Xie Zhongxing accepted everything without refusal. This was what he deserved after everything he had done.In addition to that, students who got into top universities were also awarded fifty thousand as prize money. With the school being so generous, news of this would surely travel far and wide, boosting the enrolment numbers.Qin Zhongyue also received fifty thousand yuan as well as a thirty thousand yuan bonus from the city. He was a little dazed.When Xie Zhongxing asked him what was wrong, Qin Zhongyue said, “I made money by using my own abilities!”Xie Zhongxing’s eyes stirred. He asked, “To you, this amount is probably nothing, right?”Qin Zhongyue’s expression was pained, “No, it’s not the same. Eighty thousand yuan, that is usually the price of a bottle of red wine we have at home. But I actually managed to make eighty thousand yuan using my own abilities! I did it myself!”Xie Zhongxing nodded, “It’s better than being a duck all night. For three hundred, it is indeed hard work.”“…….” He shouldn’t have told him about the matter of being a duck. If Xie Zhongxing found out about the meaning of it in the future, he would be in big trouble. Qin Zhongyue announced with emphasis, “Knowledge is power! Knowledge is money!”Xie Zhongxing asked, “How do you plan on spending that eighty thousand?”Qin Zhongyue, “I want to save it.”He was actually self-aware? Xie Zhongxing was a little surprised and also a little happy, “You’re not going to spend it? Buy a gift for your friends or something?”Qin Zhongyue shook his head, “This money holds a lot of meaning to me, I won’t spend it. I want to save it up and use it to remind myself that I am great! I can rely on my own two hands to make eighty thousand yuan!”He then said to Xie Zhongxing, “You’re amazing. Just by having good grades, you made one million. You’re so much better than me!”Xie Zhongxing, “I just got lucky. There hasn’t been a provincial top student coming from our city in a very long time.”Qin Zhongyue, “Luck is also a skill!”He suddenly felt unsure about himself becoming better than Xie Zhongxing.Xie Zhongxing keenly noticed Qin Zhongyue’s change in mood. He paused and then asked, “What’s on your mind?”

Qin Zhongyue subconsciously replied, “I’m worried that I’m not worthy of you.”Xie Zhongxing, “?”It’s here again. Xie Zhongxing asked, “Why do you think that?”Qin Zhongyue finally realised what he said and immediately tried to cover it up, “I was just speaking nonsense.”Xie Zhongxing looked at him seriously, “I don’t know if you really meant it but I want you to know that, without you, the current me would not be here. No matter how far or how high I climb, I hope to have you by my side.” He paused and added, “You just don’t know how great of a person you are. At least, in my eyes, you are like a ray of light, warm and blinding.”Qin Zhongyue took in Xie Zhongxing’s gentle eyes. His heart raced. He couldn’t help but ask, “If we get married, would you be willing to give me a thousand a day as spending money?”Xie Zhongxing, “?”His eyes met Qin Zhongyue’s. A certain emotion seemed to be surging inside him. His heart raced but he remained calm externally, “Wouldn’t a thousand yuan be too much?”Qin Zhongyue, “…..Then, five hundred?”Xie Zhongxing, “Five hundred is also too much.”Qin Zhongyue, “……”Seeing that he wasn’t saying anything, Xie Zhongxing asked with some doubt, “I only spend seven yuan a day. I think thirty should be enough?”Qin Zhongyue, “……….”Why was it so different from what he thought?! The current Xie Zhongxing was clearly much gentler!Xie Zhongxing, “But are you just joking around? You want to marry me?”Qin Zhongyue shrank back, “I think thirty is too little. I need entertainment and a social life. Grown men should have that.”Xie Zhongxing found it a bit ridiculous talking about this kind of thing with Qin Zhongyue so seriously. He however found himself dragged along by this conversation and even his heart was beating so heavily, it felt like it would soon burst out of his chest. Looking unaffected, he suggested, “…..Or you could try and hide some money. It would be fine as long as your wife doesn’t find out. But you’re only seventeen. You want to get married already?”Qin Zhongyue said glumly, “I must be honest with my wife. However much they give me is however much I spend. As for hiding money, they’ll definitely be angry if they find out. That thirty yuan is too extreme though. I’m not happy.”For some reason, Xie Zhongxing had a very absurd thought. He felt that as long as he agreed to increase the amount, Qin Zhongyue would say the words he wanted to hear.But he was also afraid of hearing him say it.

Qin Zhongyue was only seventeen after all. They were both still too young. Even if his answer was the answer he wanted to hear, they were both too immature and would gain some more wisdom with time.Despite knowing this, Xie Zhongxing couldn’t help but bite the bait.He laughed nonchalantly and tried to bargain with Qin Zhongyue, “Since you think thirty is too much, then fifty.”Qin Zhongyue looked pained, “That’s too little. It’s not enough for the minimum spend at a bar.”Bar? Xie Zhongxing’s smile was gone, “You still want to go to bars?”Qin Zhongyue, “……”He looked fearfully at Xie Zhongxing. Fuck. That tone?!Xie Zhongxing, “Wouldn’t that not be very good for your partner?”Qin Zhongyue asked timidly, “….How is it not good?”Xie Zhongxing, “You would still go to a bar despite having a partner? Do you think that’s good?”Qin Zhongyue, “…..It’s just for a drink. The bartender at home can’t do it like the bartender’s there. And the atmosphere is also important for something like this.”Xie Zhongxing, “The atmosphere, huh. Looking at handsome men and beautiful women while drinking?”Qin Zhongyue, “…..No. I only have my wife in my eyes. I won’t spare a single glance at anyone else.”Xie Zhongxing, “I think that if you get married in the future, your partner should give you ten yuan a day.”Qin Zhongyue, “………”Fuck. It’s the original Xie Zhongxing.Xie Zhongxing said, “Perhaps you should start saving up now to have spending money in the future.”Qin Zhongyue’s expression was glum. He remained firm, “I won’t hide money from them. My wife will be angry if they find out.”Xie Zhongxing, “………”Putting himself in the other person’s shoes, Xie Zhongxing said, “I won’t be angry.”Qin Zhongyue’s eyes brightened. Xie Zhongxing continued, “I would confiscate it all.”Qin Zhongyue, “………..”

Fuck. It’s still the original Xie Zhongxing.The topic of marriage was over. Xie Zhongxing personally didn’t think two men could get married.But there was something he was a little curious about. How do two men deal with their sexual desires? Can they have a sex life?This was a field he had never touched on in the past. That night, he picked up and placed down his phone several times before finally searching it up.Unexpectedly, something like this could be found very easily.Xie Zhongxing frowned. Seeing it filled with nude men, he immediately left the page.There was some disgust, and also some resistance.Xie Zhongxing let out a breath and cleared his search history.Right now, he was certain that his blushing and heart racing reaction was only towards Qin Zhongyue.Only him.Xie Zhongxing sat on the bed in thought for a long time and then proceeded to search for an adult video.The internet at this time was filled with all sorts of things and pornographic pages were abundant. Xie Zhongxing was able to easily find it.As he watched on, perhaps because he had never seen or heard of something like this, Xie Zhongxing not only had no reaction, he even felt a little disgusted.He took in a breath and paused the video. At this moment, someone knocked on his door.Although Xie Zhongxing’s expression was calm, he hastily shoved his phone under his sheets.He only opened the door after doing that. It was Qin Zhongyue. He had come carrying a plate of fruit, “I got the auntie to cut you some fresh dragonfruit, apples and mango. It’s very sweet, you should try them.”Xie Zhongxing received the plate of fruit and said to Qin Zhongyue, “En, thank you. You can go now.”Qin Zhongyue was hurt, “You’re driving me away? Let’s eat together.”Xie Zhongxing also noticed that his tone probably didn’t sound quite right. He immediately softened it and said, “Then let’s eat together.”Qin Zhongyue sat on Xie Zhongxing’s bed and patted the cool silk mat, “You don’t get hot in this room?”

He looked at Xie Zhongxing with sparkling eyes, “If it’s hot, you can move to my room.”Xie Zhongxing, “It’s okay, I’m not hot.”Qin Zhongyue was disappointed, “Why aren’t you feeling hot? Even the air conditioner is broken.”Xie Zhongxing, “Oh, I fixed the air conditioner.”After saying that, he turned it on, “I just don’t usually use it.”Qin Zhongyue, “……….”He should smash the air conditioner with a hammer next time and see if he could still fix it.He reached out to fiddle with the sheets, “Then are you cold with these sheets? The temperature drops at night.”Xie Zhongxing’s expression didn’t change but he very swiftly grabbed the other end of the sheets, “I’m not cold.”Qin Zhongyue picked up a toothpick and picked up a rabbit shaped slice of apple. He brought it over to Xie Zhongxing’s mouth and urged, “Come, have an apple.”Xie Zhongxing paused for a moment before opening his mouth and biting onto the apple. He also picked up a toothpick, picked up a piece of mango and brought it to Qin Zhongyue’s mouth, “You too.”Qin Zhongyue was flattered, “Oh, how could I trouble you with this.”Even so, he happily opened his mouth and brought the mango into his mouth. He internally thought to himself: Xie Zhongxing personally fed him. It’s so sweet.At this moment, a loud cry belonging to a woman sounded in the room.Xie Zhongxing froze in place. His usually calm face instantly flushed red.Qin Zhongyue was also stunned. He looked at Xie Zhongxing and then lowered his head and lifted up the sheets. Xie Zhongxing’s phone fell out and the screen happened to be facing Qin Zhongyue.When Qin Zhongyue lowered his head and saw the indescribable scene playing on the phone, he slowly raised his head and stared at Xie Zhongxing.Xie Zhongxing’s tone was still calm but his voice trembled a little, “I was just curious.”As soon as he was done saying that, he heard Qin Zhongyue say, “So you’re curious.”Xie Zhongxing felt that his voice sounded a little strange. He couldn’t help but feel guilty inside, “Yeah, it was just out of curiosity.”That was the truth.Qin Zhongyue said very seriously, “Don’t search it on the web next time. You will get viruses and malware. If you want to know more about it, you should ask me.”Xie Zhongxing, “….Ask you?”Qin Zhongyue, “I have ten terabytes of these kinds of videos on my home computer. It would be safer getting them from me.”Xie Zhongxing blinked a few times and slowly let out a big question mark.
