Chapter 75: Too Sweet
It was not only Qin Xu who had returned to the past in his sleep, Jiang Yang did as well, and he ran into Qin Xu as a child. Little Qin Xu could be described to be a little devil. The moment they met, he ran into his arms like a bullet and cried out: “Daddy!”
Jiang Yang was confused. With me so young, how can I have such a big son like you?
Later he learnt that this little devil was particularly bold and deliberately escaped from the nanny who took care of him. He wandered around happily and, when the police uncles notice him, he would find a nearby friendly-looking person to pretend to be their family and wait until the police uncles walk away to finally admit that he had recognised the wrong person.
He actually had this little trick up his sleeves.
Jiang Yang was slightly shocked, but he had to admit that Qin Xu that guy had beast like instincts that allowed him to accurately distinguish between good and bad people. With this skill of his, this trick was actually quite feasible.
After discovered that this little devil is pretty assertive and does not need any concern, Jiang Yang turned around and left. But after just a few steps, his expression turned complicated and he turned to look at the little tail following behind him. With a bit of helplessness, “Why are you following me?”
The child just grinned and didn’t speak.
“If you’re not speaking then I’m leaving.”
Then, as soon as he turned around, the little tail behind him immediately returned to a cold and indifferent expression and casually followed behind him.
Jiang Yang stopped. He bent down in front of him, “Little guy, are you lost?”
The child immediately shook his head, “No.”
“Then go home.”
The child said reluctantly: “My home is in this direction.”
Jiang Yang shrugged and then stood up. He strode forward quickly and turned around two corners. The child’s legs are short, so he could only run after him. When he lost Jiang Yang he pouted his mouth and for a moment he was sad.
At this moment, Jiang Yang appeared out of nowhere and said, “Yet you said that you’re not following me.”
The child ran over and instantly grabbed onto Jiang Yang’s trouser legs.
Jiang Yang looked at his little face and his heart eventually softened. He asked: “What is your name? Where do you live? I’ll take you home.”
“My name is Qin Xu…..”
Jiang Yang was shocked. Is he the Qin Xu that he knows? This little bean before him, Qin Xu?
On the way, he held the little boy’s hand and talked to him until they reached his home. Jiang Yang also didn’t know the reason, but the moment little Qin Xu saw him, he immediately trusted him completely. Because of this, when it was time to part little Qin Xu wasn’t happy about it.
“Why do you have to go? Can’t you stay with me?”
“No, I also have to go home.”
“Then, then…..Then I’ll marry you. You can be my wife and we can live together and play together!” Little Qin Xu was seemingly happy about this idea of his. His face was bright, and he looked over at Jiang Yang expectantly.
Jiang Yang couldn’t help but laugh. He teased, “Only girls can be wives. I’m a boy so how can you marry me?”
Little Qin Xu stubbornly shook his head, “I don’t care. Mummy said that if I like someone, they should be my wife and I should only like one person. I like you, so you are my wife. I don’t care if you are a boy or girl.”
Jiang Yang laughed for a moment before pursing his lips, “How can you speak so well at such a young age? You probably have lots of girl friends in class?”
How could little Qin Xu let his wife misunderstand? He immediately explained: “No, they are all too immature.”
“Immature?” Jiang Yang smiled and flicked his forehead, “You’re also a still a little boy yet you say that about other children?”
“Don’t say that I’m immature. I’m not a three-year-old little child, I’m a seven-year-old big child!” Little Qin Xu seriously refuted.
Jiang Yang smiled, “Yes, yes.”
“So you are my wife!”
Jiang Yang continued to answer perfunctorily, “Yes, yes…..wait, no!”
“You already agreed so you can’t take it back. If you take it back, you’re a puppy!”
Jiang Yang: “………” You act like this and yet you say that you’re not immature.
***
When they woke up in the morning, the dormitory began their usual routine of opening their eyes and washing up. During this time, both Jiang Yang and Qin Xu felt a little complicated. After they finished getting ready, they naturally went to the cafeteria for breakfast together.
On the way, Qin Xu grinned and said: “My system is gone. I also had a very special dream last night. What about you?”
Jiang Yang looked at him with a relatively cold reaction. But if you looked carefully, you would see that the corner of his lips was slightly raised, “My system is gone too but I didn’t have a dream.”
“Really?” Qin Xu was a little in disbelief. He walked forward a few steps and then turned around to face Jiang Yang. While walking backwards he said, “I saw what you were like when you were young. Super soft and cute. I even told him that I like the future you.”
Jiang Yang snorted and acted like it didn’t concern him but his ears slightly reddened. He still wasn’t used to Qin Xu’s straightforward love talk that would appear from time to time.
Qin Xu also said, “I also used a magic trick to trick the younger you. I said that I would only teach my wife and you agreed to be my wife.”
“I don’t believe it.”
Qin Xu grinned, “Why don’t you believe it? But, I can also be your wife. You should take me in, I’m easy to take care of~”
Jiang Yang: “Get lost.”
Qin Xu smiled very greasily: “Where can I get lost to? Get lost in your heart?”
Jiang Yang: “…………”
Qin Xu continued to grin. It was like his mouth was smeared with honey and all the words that came out were sickening sweet. Jiang Yang felt uncomfortable being stared at by him for so long and felt his face heating up.
Qin Xu naturally also saw this. He hooked his lips up and smiled even more happily.
After getting together, they no longer had the gap between them and they started getting stuck together almost constantly.
On the weekend, Jiang Yang would go and stay over at Qin Xu’s place with the excuse to study together but in fact…….it was naturally a chance for them to act lovey-dovey.
To avoid feeling guilty, in addition to playing games Jiang Yang would still work on his homework like a good student.
The two of them sat together at a table completing their homework. Jiang Yang had his head lowered while his pen scratched onto the surface of the page as he solved the questions. He could be described to be working seriously but there was a very immature person, like a child with ADHD, who would restlessly glance over at Jiang Yang and reach out to touch him.
“Xiao Yang Yang, do you want to eat fruit? Biscuits? Are you thirsty?”
“Xiao Yang Yang, look at me.”
“Hey, you finished a subject. Let’s take a break.”
……….
After a while, Jiang Yang finally exploded. He turned around and glared at him, “Be quiet.”
With that look of warning, Qin Xu fell silent. Unfortunately, the ferocity behind those words weren’t enough and it didn’t take long for him to once again start playing up.
Jiang Yang was a little angry, “I already told you to keep quiet. If you continue to be noisy I’ll……I’ll kiss you!”
Qin Xu’s eyes suddenly brightened.
Jiang Yang: “……..” What is wrong with me?
Jiang Yang wrinkled his brows in annoyance and wanted to act like he didn’t say anything. He looked down and continued to complete his homework but the person next to him couldn’t calm down. Compared to earlier, the ruckus that he created far surpassed the previous incidents and there was an indescribable excitement hidden in his actions.
Jiang Yang maintained a straight face and acted like he didn’t see anything. He continued to tackle the problem seriously and treat the person next to him like air.
Qin Xu sprawled over the table with his chin resting in his arms. He tilted his head to look at him and complain with dissatisfaction, “You’re a liar.”
Jiang Yang couldn’t laugh or cry. While holding onto the pen he turned and looked over at his wronged expression. Jiang Yang shook his head and sighed before the corners of his lips formed a soft smile. No matter how hard he tried to keep a straight face, he couldn’t completely conceal the smile. He moved over and leaned down to drop a kiss onto Qin Xu’s lips. It was a very light touch that was gone the moment he felt it.
Qin Xu blinked in daze. He wasn’t satisfied at all. It’s no better than not kissing! After tasting the sweetness, he wants more okay?!
“Do your homework. Also, exams are coming soon.” Jiang Yang continued saying this with a steel face and he didn’t pay any attention to his coquettish advances. He said that after finishing their homework, they should review for the exams.
Qin Xu wasn’t reconciled by the kiss. He continued to harass him in a low voice and Jiang Yang eventually exploded. He smacked his hand on the table with ferocity.
Qin Xu reflexively dodged backwards and vigilantly guarded himself, “You can’t hit me. Kisses are a boyfriend’s rights. I’m not in the wrong!”
Jiang Yang stalled for a moment before snorting out a laugh. The anger inside him had completely dissipated. He did his best to make a stern expression and say: “If you keep quiet and don’t disturb me now, when we’re reviewing later, we can kiss based on the situation.”
Qin Xu was happy. He immediately asked: “What type of situation can we kiss?”
Jiang Yang glanced over at him, “We will talk about it after you stay quiet for a while. If not, the agreement is void.
Qin Xu again asked: “In addition to a kiss, are there any other benefits? For example…….”
Seeing that meaningful smile of his made Jiang Yang’s scalp numb. He decisively refused, “Don’t even think about it!”
Qin Xu raised his eyebrow, “I haven’t said it yet. How do you know what I was going to say? I just wanted a hug. Where did your thoughts run off to?”
Jiang Yang glared at him.
Qin Xu grinned, “Honestly, Xiao Yang Yang did you want to……….?”
Jiang Yang: “………Get lost. Starting now. If you make noise, the promise earlier doesn’t count.
Qin Xu immediately shut up. He blinked a few times and made an innocent and harmless expression, but it only made Jiang Yang grit his teeth in annoyance. After getting along with this guy for so long, he understood that the cold and indifferent demeanour that he had initially was all fake. He’s too thick-skinned. He couldn’t believe any of his expressions at all! And Jiang Yang just happened to be bad at dealing with him like this. When he suddenly softens down and pretend to be pitiful and spoiled, he clearly knows that it is a trap, but he would still happily jump in! Jiang Yang really felt speechless at himself.
With motivation, Qin Xu’s speed sped up to the point that it looked like his hands were flying over his homework. His eyes stared at the papers so passionately that it looked like it would soon ignite into a fire. With so much passion and fighting spirit, if their teacher were to see it he would definitely feel proud. But if the teacher found out that he was only like that so that he could kiss his boyfriend the teacher would definitely vomit blood ——— It’s the young people’s world now. I’m old now.
When it was finally time for them to review, Qin Xu was filled with expectations. He looked over at Jiang Yang with doe-like eyes. The light that flashed inside it was almost blinding.
What he was most curious about was obviously the rules. What should he do to get more kisses? He thought this inside and started thinking of various plans. Jiang Yang however didn’t tell him. He just smiled and said: “I’m not saying. It’ll depend on your performance.”
That was very mean of him. Doesn’t that just mean that he would make the decision himself? But Qin Xu wasn’t too disappointed. The advantage of this was that Jiang Yang would take the initiative himself to kiss him. If he didn’t think that it was enough, he could whinge and complain for more so it’s not a big deal. Also, the fact that he doesn’t know about the rules made it rather exciting.
Of course, the most important thing was that Qin Xu knows that Jiang Yang is like him. Both are lively and energetic young men so how could he mistreat him?
At the beginning of the session, Jiang Yang asked questions and Qin Xu answered.
It started with questions that were easy to answer and Qin Xu was filled with confidence. He thought that he probably would get as many rewards as the number of questions he got correct. But only after five questions, the questions started becoming very specific. They just happened to be the type of questionsthat Qin Xu wasn’t particularly strong at answering. He mulled over it for a while and, under the pressure of Jiang Yang’s count down, Qin Xu managed to throw out the correct answer. He smiled particularly brightly and looked over to Jiang Yang while blinking a few times like a big dog begging to be rewarded.
But Jiang Yang just pursed his lips and seemingly appeared unhappy. He threw out another question that was even more difficult. Qin Xu stalled for a moment. He had just successfully completed a question, but he didn’t get a reward and instead he deliberately gave him one that was more difficult? He lowered his head in disappointment. This question was one that he really didn’t know the answer to. He racked his brains as Jiang Yang started counting down and could only dejectedly throw out a random answer that he knew was incorrect.
Sure enough, Jiang Yang shook his head and said coldly: “Wrong.”
Qin Xu pouted and was little annoyed. He felt that Jiang Yang didn’t want him to be rewarded so he deliberately made things difficult for him. The rules were also set by Jiang Yang and he didn’t want to tell him. He was being very bad.
Then, the ‘bad guy’ that was being cursed out internally by Qin Xu bent his head down while his hand rested on his shoulder and gave him a kiss on his lips.
“This is your punishment.”
After the kiss, Jiang Yang slowly retreated and calmly sat back down. He even unconsciously licked his lips.
Qin Xu was stunned. He looked at him dumbfoundedly. He didn’t expect him to suddenly kiss him. When the other person had already moved back, he was filled with regrets. He should have grabbed that person and deep kissed him. But he still managed to get the reward. Qin Xu instantly let go of his anger and just grinned happily: “Isn’t this a reward?”
Jiang Yang almost couldn’t keep his face straight. The fingers in front of him twitched slightly revealing his inner state that is completely different to his external indifferent expression. He stressed with a calm expression: “One wrong answer and you get punished with a kiss.”
Qin Xu smirked, “Then that must be the sweetest punishment I have ever seen. I’m so troubled.”
For the next question, Qin Xu could answer it, but he deliberately said, “Ah, so hard. I don’t know.”
Jiang Yang again bowed his head down and kissed him. He then added: “I almost forgot to say, if you get more than three wrong, I’ll be sleeping in the guest room tonight.”
Qin Xu: “………!!!” What is this? Why didn’t you say so earlier! He only has one chance left?!
In an instant, Qin Xu became nervous. He felt that the remaining questions were demons that wanted to render him dead! For a moment, Qin Xu was aggrieved. That miserable appearance of his made others seeing it also feel bad.
Jiang Yang looked away and secretly laughed.
