Gu Yu gritted his teeth, he dragged Li Baishi into the kitchen and asked him to clean it up together. He couldn’t imagine how Li Baishi turned the kitchen into such a shape that was like being swept by a tornado. Pots and bowls were piled up on the table. Instant noodles and fast food boxes were not only in the living room but also in the kitchen, and there is a faint rancid smell.

Gu Yu brushed the pot then ran to his house to took two preserved eggs in the kitchen cabinet. Fortunately, there was still a piece of pork meat in the freezer of Li Baishi’s refrigerator. He cooked a small pot of century egg pork congee(1). After the two men finally cleaned up the messy kitchen, the congee was almost cooked.

Li Baishi was lying on the dining table and stared at Gu Yu, who was carrying out two bowls of congee. After taking the bowl, he could not wait to take a sip. Unfortunately, he shouted as it burned his tongue before finally swallowed. His face full of worship when he looked at Gu Yu. “Gu Xiaoyu, don’t write novels anymore and open a shop! I assure you I’ll order takeout from you every day!”

Getting praised will always make anyone happy. The frustration from cleaning the kitchen was mostly dissipated by Li Baishi’s praise and worship. He took a mouthful of congee and blew it, then he ate it. He had to say that this porridge was really delicious. The rice in the congee was sticky like silk, the preserved egg was so soft it melts in the mouth, and the lean meat was also stewed until it becomes soft.

Gu Yu blinked, he was also a little surprised that it turned to be so delicious this time. In his heart, he was pleased with himself.

After they finished eating, Li Baishi nestled on the sofa and stroked his stomach, unwilling to move. As a result, Gu Yu dragged him to clean the water inside his house. After the two men finally cleaned the flooded room, they were both tired and couldn’t get up from the sofa. The two of them thought in a tacit understanding that cleaning was more tiring than running five kilometers.

“Back to our topic earlier, Gu Xiaoyu, why did you called your childhood friend ‘deceptive goods’? Is it because you’re jealous that he is ‘Mr. Perfect’?” After a while, Li Baishi took out the strawberry-flavored lollipop that Gu Yu just gave him from his pocket and tore the wrapper then eat it.

Gu Yu swept a glance at Li Baishi. He had not been idle from morning till now. He received a phone call in the morning and ran back to his apartment. Then he fell accidentally in the bathroom, cleaned the kitchen, then cooked a meal. After that, he has to clean his house. Honestly, he doesn’t want to say a single word ‘tired’ after all of this. But with how Li Baishi asked him again and again, the noise of his chatter made Gu Yu’s head hurt.

“You are so noisy, it’s because that scoundrel told me to come out of the closet with him. That’s why he’s a ‘deceptive goods’!”

“So it turns out like that… wait, wait, what?! Come out?!”

After realizing that his brain was in a mess and he accidentally said something that should not be said, Gu Yu immediately straighten his body and tried to explain. As a result, he saw both Li Baishi’s hand hugged himself around his chest and looked at him with vigilance.

Gu Yu: “…what are you doing?”

Li Baishi: “I know your lovely neighbor is handsome and cute, but you must not fall in love with me! I’m a straight man! If you like me…”

Gu Yu: “Please take your medicine if you are sick, thank you. By the way, I like pigs and I won’t like you! Stop dreaming!”

After listening to Gu Yu’s words, Li Baishi finally put down his hands from his chest. After that, his original vigilant look was replaced with an unbelievable look, “You, you, you… you like pigs! But aren’t you a pair with your childhood friend… Could it be that your childhood friend is actually a reincarnation of a pig spirit…”

Li Baishi’s expression was like discovering a big shocking secret. He immediately stared at Gu Yu with ‘I won’t discriminate against you’ eyes and even patted him on the shoulder. Gu Yu’s whole face was full of black lines when the hand was put on his shoulder.

To prevent Li Baishi from continuing his strange imagination filling his brain, Gu Yu had no choice but to explain the entire process to him. Li Baishi had a really good relationship with him, and Gu Yu felt it was okay to talk to him, as long as he didn’t talk about it carelessly… And in the end, Gu Yu always felt that there was suffocation stuck in his chest.

“The two of you are really slag gong and cheap shou…” As a member of the toxic netizen, Li Baishi was very straightforward to speak the terms that he understood.

Gu Yu who heard a sigh from Baishi suddenly darkened, “‘Slag gong and cheap shou’ your sister!”

Li Baishi looked at Gu Yu for granted and broke the candy in his mouth. “Otherwise? But it also can’t be said as slag gong and cheap shou. Your childhood friend is slag for you, but he is good enough for the one he likes. You think carefully, you desperately going as far as paving the way for his future with someone else that still unsure will be his, even you’re not hesitating to be used. Although you are volunteering, I have to say that it’s so good to be your childhood friend and his crush.”

Spitting out the lollipop stick, Li Baishi added, “Love sure is cruel, tsk tsk.”

After listening to Li Baishi’s words, Gu Yu’s heart was filled with sour bubbles and his face was sullen. Li Baishi didn’t even notice Gu Yu’s expression at all and continued talking. “I didn’t expect that Gu Xiaoyu was gay. Hey, you are also a hard worker. To liked him for ten years. You’re awesome! At last, you even promised your childhood friend to be a stepping stone. It’s either cheap shou or Saint. Gu Xiaoyu, you are too great!”

‘Cheap shou’ your sister! ‘Saint’ your sister! Gu Yu tried to suppress his anger. He grabbed a pillow and smashed it on himself, just like venting his anger. He hit himself as much as he could. The scared Li Baishi cried and jumped off the sofa. He was going to run back to his room when the phone on the table suddenly vibrated.

Li Baishi grabbed his mobile phone, unlocked the lock screen, and looked at the new post on Weibo. He quickly rushed and threw a pillow on Gu Yu to stop his venting. The anger in Gu Yu’s heart also nearly disappeared, so he put down the pillow and threw his eyes on the cell phone that Li Baishi showed him.

A picture displayed on the screen. The people in the picture were very good-looking. The slender red phoenix eyes(2) and the straight bridge of the nose, then the person sat on the chair with the slightly lifted chin. The corner of the mouth has a trace of imperceptible arc. The expression looked disdain with the unyielding arrogance. Gu Yu looked at the person on the picture, blinked, and noticed his hairstyle and clothing for a while. Then he remembered how this person was so similar to the villain boss in his previous novel?

“Isn’t this COS(3) the design of Wu Fu that you drew for me?”

Wu Fu is the name of the villain boss in Gu Yu’s previous novel. He is the god from the ancestors of the demon clan.

Immediately, Li Baishi said, “Yes yes, this is the design of Wu Fu I drew for you that you published. The Wu Fu I drew was so handsome and domineering. You look at this person again. This COS, it’s not domineering at all!”

Gu Yu looked at the picture again. “No, I think it’s quite similar to the original. You see this COSER has already expressed Wu Fu’s kind of pride and disdain.”

Hearing Gu Yu’s words, Li Bai reluctantly looked at it again carefully, but he still didn’t feel satisfied. However, if Gu Yu who was the original author said that it was similar, he couldn’t say anything more. Then, he gloomily brushed his finger to saw another picture. As a result, his eyes flashed and he immediately showed it to Gu Yu.

“Look, look, they put Wu Fu and your protagonist together! Jesus! These are close to kissing!”

Gu Yu also leaned in and looked at it, and found that it was true. In the picture, Wu Fu was sitting on a solemn high chair, but on his lap is a COS of the protagonist of his previous novel. One of Wu Fu’s hand was hugging the protagonist’s waist while his other hand pinched the protagonist’s chin. He half-narrowing his eyes and at the corner of his mouth was a spoiled smile.

Although he knew that there were many YY female readers in his previous novel that likes the cp of the protagonist and Wu Fu, he didn’t expect to saw CP on COS, it was really…

“Ah, I’m sorry I forgot, but for you gay guys, I certainly don’t feel it.” When Gu Yu who was looking at the picture, suddenly heard Li Baishi’s words and the phone in front of him was taken back, the corner of his mouth twitched and the urge to beat this person returned.

“Huh? This COSER is going to the expo with this character next time. Hmph, Gu Xiaoyu, we were wronged. I’m going to talk with him. The character I drew is obviously so domineering!” Li Baishi said to himself while sitting on the sofa. He didn’t notice the appearance of Gu Yu that was inhaling and exhaling.

Gu Yu was thinking about whether to beat Li Baishi again when suddenly there was the voice of people quarreling from outside the window.

It was a bit unexpected that some people were arguing in the neighborhood at this time. Li Baishi was originally browsing Weibo, but when he suddenly heard a “Xiaowei–” which frightened him, he immediately raised his head to look at Gu Yu on the other side. After blinking, he ran to the balcony.

“Gu Xiaoyu Gu Xiaoyu, come over here quick and watch!”

Hearing Li Baishi’s continuous calls, Gu Yu had to get up and come to the balcony.

“Why, isn’t someone arguing? What’s so good… WTF!”

“Tsk tsk, I thought who was quarreling, it turned out to be a couple that was going to broke up. Hum, Explode now, and charge! Get ready to bear the anger of my FFF group!”

Downstairs was where a couple quarreled as if breaking up. Looking at it from the perspective of two people, those two were simply ‘You listen to me explain in Qiong Yao’s play(4)!’ ‘‘I won’t listen, I won’t listen’. Then the two saw that the girl suddenly extended her leg and kicked the man’s crotch, then she ran mercilessly with the bag.

The two people watching the play upstairs were frightened by the girl’s sturdy behavior.

“…Gu Xiaoyu, you see that brother was kicked, can it still functioned well?”

“…I know him.” Gu Yu’s reply was irrelevant. He ignored Li Baishi’s puzzled gaze and looked down at the man downstairs who was squatting because he had just been kicked, don’t know if he would be impotent or not. Gu Yu thought that if he had just seen it correctly, that person should be Xu Nan.

“Ah? You know that person, I think he looked hurts after the kick. If you two know each other shouldn’t we go down soon?” Before he could answer, Gu Yu suddenly heard Li Baishi’s shout.

“Hey, brother downstairs! Are you okay?” The person downstairs looked up. Gu Yu hurriedly tried to stop Li Bai’s self-proclaimed behavior, but before that, he heard Li Baishi shouted again, “Would you like me to call an ambulance for you? Later, if you become impotent… wuwuwu…!!!”

Gu Yu covered Li Baishi’s mouth and shooted a glance at the neighborhood. Fortunately, there was no one downstairs at this moment. After a sigh of relief, he met his gaze.

“…” Gu Yu looked at the man’s face and wondered whether Xu Nan had twins. If he didn’t have twins, then this person is really Xu Nan. Then, he covered Li Baishi’s mouth with both hands and shouted forcefully—

“Shall I call an ambulance for you?”

Xu Nan who was suspected of being impotent and was asked if he wanted to call an ambulance: “…”

The author has something to say:
