Chapter 69 – Awkward

 

Qi Xi looked at Fu Yanchuan and smiled unconsciously. He still remembered the first time Fu Yanchuan took him on a date. Hae gave him a very nice hairstyle.

 

But he felt that things were different now. However, he did not think about the difference. He was just happy and leaned closer to Fu Yanchuan. “Brother Yan, this is our second date.”

 

Fu Yanchuan was suddenly stunned because he couldn’t remember when Qi Xi considered them as dating. But he didn’t dare to ask, for fear that he would not remember and make Qi Xi sad, so he asked stiffly: “Where do you want to go?”

 

Qi Xi had little understanding of dating and didn’t know what else to do besides going out for dinner.

 

But it was not time for dinner yet, so he could not think of an answer and asked Fu Yanchuan, “Why are you asking me if you want to take me on a date?”

 

Fu Yanchuan had never dated anyone before, and he had no idea what to do on a date, even more than Qi Xi. He fastened Qi Xi’s seat belt and said, “Wait a minute.”

 

Then he stepped out and closed the car door. He did not get in the car immediately. He took out his cell phone and looked through his contacts outside in the hot sun. He found that there was no one in a relationship with him. Finally, he sent a message to Zhou Zhiwei.

 

[Do you have a boyfriend? ]

 

Zhou Zhiwei was shocked when she suddenly received a message from her former boss. She was shocked again when she saw the content of the message. She didn’t understand what the question meant. Fu Yanchuan was not going to introduce her to a boyfriend, was he?

 

Fortunately, Fu Yanchuan sent a second message.

 

[What do you do on a date?]

 

What date? Zhou Zhiwei thought about it for a long time and finally understood. She couldn’t help but slap the table and laugh. The colleague next to her looked over and asked, “What?”

 

The colleague next to her was no longer the one who supported President Fuand his first love as a couple. After Fu Yanchuan left, there was a lot of staff turnover in the president’s office. She was the person who was most familiar with the president’s schedule, so she was kept.

 

The executive president is Fu Jinshen who also serves as the chairman. Compared with Fu Yanchuan who is as impartial as a robot, Fu Jinshen is simply a puzzle game. He appears to be friendly and kind on the surface, but in fact, no one knows how many scheming people he has in his heart.

 

She didn’t dare to let her colleague, the former president, contact her, otherwise if Fu Jinshen heard about it, he would never believe that Fu Yanchuan came to ask her how to date. She quickly smiled and said it was okay, then replied to Fu Yanchuan.

 

But just as she was about to type, she realized that she had never been in a relationship since she left school, and Fu Yanchuan’s relationship level should be completely different from hers. She couldn’t let Fu Yanchuan take her beloved boyfriend to the night market to eat skewers, right?

 

No, isn’t Fu Yanchuan’s beloved boyfriend a college boy?

 

Zhou Zhiwei’s complicated psychological activities finally ended, and she replied to Fu Yanchuan.

 

[Dates usually involve shopping, dinner, and a movie.]

 

[If the other person doesn’t mind, you can go get a room and have a nap after the movie.]

 

[It’s mainly about the feeling of being with each other, what you do is not important.]

 

[Don’t forget to take photos, it will be your beautiful memories in the future.]

 

Fu Yanchuan frowned deeply after reading it. He suddenly thought of what Qi Xi considered as their first date. He brought Qi Xi there as an excuse to reject the marriage proposal with Miss He. Until now, Qi Xi knew nothing and still regarded that as their first date.

 

“Brother Yan? What are you doing? Isn’t it hot?”

 

Qi Xi waited for a long time but Fu Yanchuan was still outside.

 

He opened the car window and stuck his head out. Fu Yanchuan immediately put away his phone and got in the car. He rolled up the car window and asked, “Xixi, can we go somewhere for a walk?”

 

“Well, where to?”

 

Fu Yanchuan replied, “I just received an invitation to an art exhibition. Do you want to go and see it?”

 

Qi Xi had been to several art exhibitions and thought it was similar to that one, so he agreed, “I want to go.”

 

But when he got there, he found that it was not what he expected. This was not a public place like an art gallery, but a private club. Tickets were not sold to the public and one could only enter with an invitation letter from the organizer.

 

It was the first time for him to attend such an exhibition. He was curious about everything. He looked around and then went in with Fu Yanchuan. There was a special person to lead them.

 

When he arrived at the actual exhibition hall, he felt the biggest difference was the exquisiteness and magnificence, and that all the visitors were holding wine glasses and talking about something while looking around.

 

He asked Fu Yanchuan, “Brother Yan, why are they all holding wine?”

 

To put it bluntly, a private art exhibition is actually a forum for exchanging interests among a certain circle. The rarity of the exhibits is only to highlight their value, and few of the people who come here truly understand art.

 

Fu Yanchuan brought Qi Xi here because of the rare exhibits. He didn’t want Qi Xi to get to know these people, so he said directly: “Don’t worry about it, just watch your own thing.”

 

Even though Qi Xi was good at painting, he didn’t think he had any artistic attainments. He only cared about whether the paintings looked good or not, without any connotation or fame. It was only in the past few months, because Cheng Shu had been very particular and taught him a lot of relevant knowledge, that he finally had some understanding of the history of art.

 

Following Fu Yanchuan’s gaze, he suddenly saw an ancient painting that Cheng Shu and he had seen long ago disappeared.

 

Fu Yanchuan: “This is a private collection. If you don’t know who collected it, it’s usually hard to know where it is.”

 

Qi Xi was shocked. For the first time, he truly felt the disparity between people in this world.

 

Then he asked Fu Yanchuan a million questions, “Brother Yan, what is this?”

 

Fu Yanchuan used all his artistic knowledge that he had not used before and now he serves as a tour guide for Qi Xi.

 

After the tour, Qi Xi admired Fu Yanchuan again. The exit of the exhibition hall was a tea room with cakes and drinks. He looked around to see that no one was paying attention to them, so he stood in front of Fu Yanchuan and leaned forward, looking up at him: “Brother Yan, how can you be so amazing and know everything!”

 

Fu Yanchuan was like a peacock spreading its feathers to court a mate. His eyes were even more ardent than Qi Xi’s admiration, he lowered his head and asked, “Xi Xi, are you satisfied with my service?”

 

“Full–“

 

Qi Xi had just finished speaking when he noticed someone was approaching. He quickly stepped back, but Fu Yanchuan grabbed his hand. He struggled to pull his hand back, glanced at the person approaching, and whispered, “There’s someone.”

 

Fu Yanchuan still didn’t let go and just looked at him without saying a word until someone else walked by and then he finally let go.

 

He subconsciously grabbed Fu Yanchuan’s hand back. Fu Yanchuan suddenly stared at his hand, as if asking him why.

 

But he didn’t give a reason, he just felt that Fu Yanchuan seemed very disappointed the moment he let go.

 

“Xixi, once you hold me, you can’t let go, understand?”

 

Fu Yanchuan refused to let go. He squeezed his fingers into Qi Xi’s fingers and interlocked theirs tightly.

 

Qi Xi stared at him and kept glancing at the people around him, “But what if someone sees us?”

 

Fu Yanchuan’s fingertips caressed Qi Xi’s hand

 

He knew that he was being unreasonable. Qi Xi was only 20 years old. Although society was more tolerant than before, homosexuals were still a minority. There was no need to deliberately draw attention to themselves. Qi Xi had never concealed their relationship in front of people he knew.

 

He looked at Qi Xi, his eyes like countless tentacles entangled on Qi Xi’s face.

 

Qi Xi didn’t know what Fu Yanchuan was thinking, but Fu Yanchuan suddenly pulled his hand and he fell forward involuntarily. Fu Yanchuan put his arms around him with his other hand and suddenly kissed him.

 

He was terrified and afraid of being seen, but Fu Yanchuan brushed past his lips and hugged him, as if he was about to fall and Fu Yanchuan just supported him.

 

Then, Fu Yanchuan slowly let him go and asked gently as usual: “Do you want to go shopping again?”

 

He clenched the hand that Fu Yanchuan had just held, feeling that he was a little fickle. He didn’t want Fu Yanchuan to really kiss him in public and holding his hand since he has a fear of being stared at.

 

But when Fu Yanchuan really let him go, he felt disappointed again. Was he some kind of pervert who had a strange habit of liking to be watched while kissing?

 

“Xixi?”

 

Fu Yanchuan called out to the stunned Qi Xi and subconsciously wanting to pull his hand, but he restrained himself.

 

“Let’s not go shopping then.”

 

Qi Xi came to his senses and subconsciously grabbed Fu Yanchuan’s arm. But when he saw that Fu Yanchuan had put his hands in his trouser pockets. He withdrew his hands in a daze.

 

Fu Yanchuan looked at him, turned around and walked ahead without saying anything. He didn’t move and stopped to wait for him until he caught up.

 

It was already dark outside when Fu Yanchuan drove the car out of the garage and Qi Xi noticed it.

 

Fu Yanchuan suddenly asked: “Xixi, what do you want to eat tonight?”

 

Qi Xi has been kept by the chef at home, so he has no interest in restaurants and doesn’t want to eat anything. He is still thinking about Fu Yanchuan, who didn’t let him hold hands, so he stuffed his hands in his trouser pockets and said with grievance, “Whatever.”

 

Fu Yanchuan gripped the steering wheel tightly without answering anything, and took Qi Xi to the famous Lu Restaurant in the city center. He didn’t like the exaggerated atmosphere and taste of this restaurant, but he came anyway because it was Lu Restaurant.

 

But Qi Xi didn’t notice anything from beginning to end and was absent-minded during the meal.

 

After eating, they went downstairs and walked on the noisy pedestrian street, moving forward at half a step distance without moving forward.

 

Passing by a luxury store, Qi Xi suddenly stopped and stared at it. Fu Yanchuan also quickly stopped and asked, “Do you want to buy anything?”

 

Qi Xi didn’t want to buy anything. He suddenly thought of the gift he bought for Fu Yanchuan a long time ago. Because he was embarrassed to give it to Fu Yanchuan, he hid it deep in the closet.

 

He glanced at Fu Yanchuan and said, “I bought you a gift before, but I didn’t have the nerve to give it to you.”

 

“What gift?”

 

Fu Yanchuan’s eyes were filled with surprise. He replied, “Give it to me when we get back.”

 

“Shall we go home now?”

 

“Okay.”

 

They walked back the same way, found the car and drove home, and were still half a step away from each other until they entered the house.

 

“Brother Yan, wait for me.”

 

Qi Xi was in a hurry to get the gift for Fu Yanchuan. Fu Yanchuan just stood there, watching Qi Xi return to his room where he hadn’t slept for a long time. After a while, he ran out with a small paper bag.

 

When he got to him, he looked up and then suddenly threw himself into his arms, saying in a voice full of grievance: “Are you angry with me? Is that why you don’t let me touch you?”

 

Fu Yanchuan didn’t know where Qi Xi’s grievance came from. He was almost going crazy with endurance, so how could he not let him touch him?

 

He hugged him back tightly and asked carefully: Is this why you are unhappy?”

 

Qi Xi suddenly hid his face in his chest, hus voice choking with sobs: “Aren’t you unhappy? You kept your hands in your pants. I didn’t mean to stop you from holding hands. It’s because if we hold hands, others will keep looking at us, and I feel embarrassed. Besides, others will scold us if they see us. You’ve never been angry about this before, why are you suddenly angry today? No, I don’t know. I’m not that smart that I can always guess what you’re thinking!”

 

“Xixi, I’m not angry! It’s my fault. I kept my hand tucked in because I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to resist and hold your hand again. I might not be able to control myself and ignore my will. I’m not as good as I thought. You can be angry with me, but don’t blame yourself.”

 

Fu Yanchuan felt more and more like a bastard. He lifted Qi Xi’s face and looked at him with those beautiful peach blossom eyes. Tears continued to fall. He reached out to wipe them away. The tears fell on his fingers, but they seemed to be branded on his heart.

 

He panicked unconsciously and kissed Qi Xi’s tears: “Xi Xi, stop crying. Why do I always make you cry?”

 

Qi Xi sniffed and said to him: “Because I like you too much.”

 

——Because I like you so much!

 

Fu Yanchuan directly picked up Qi Xi, and Qi Xi wrapped his legs around his waist. He held the person in his arms and kissed him.

 

After a sticky kiss, Qi Xi whispered, “You haven’t seen the gift yet.”

 

“What is it?”

 

Qi Xi leaned over and whispered in his ear: “Go back to the room and look.”

 

He silently carried Qi Xi back to the room, put him on the bed and pressed him against him. He wiped the remaining tears from the corners of Qi Xi’s eyes and asked, “Xi Xi, have you forgiven me?”

 

Qi Xi nodded, “Brother Yan, I feel like I’ve become so strange. It’s just such a small thing, but I can’t help but think a lot. Sometimes I think this way, sometimes I think that way. I’m so petty and fickle.”

 

“Xixi, that’s alright. It’s my fault, don’t blame yourself, okay?”

 

“Then let’s just say what we think next time, okay?”

 

“Okay.” Fu Yanchuan put it into practice on the spot, “I thought about holding hands, so that someone can see us together and stop others from coveting us. What did you think?”

 

The discomfort in Qi Xi’s eyes suddenly disappeared and then he blushed and said in a very low voice: “I thought about kissing you forcefully in front of many people, and then loudly telling them that I like it so much.”

 

Fu Yanchuan’s gaze froze. Qi Xi couldn’t understand what Fu Yanchuan meant, so he bumped his head over and said, “This again! I can’t get whatever I want just now!”

 

Fu Yanchuan tried to answer seriously: “I’m sorry, don’t be angry.”

 

Qi Xi nodded generously, he suddenly smiled, and then Qi Xi grabbed his collar and bit him.

 

“Not angry?”

 

“I’m not mad, I just want to bite.”

 

Fu Yanchuan grabbed Qi Xi’s hand, pressed it to the top of his head, and then pressed down: “Do you still want me to kiss you forcefully and say you like it loudly?”

 

“No, there’s no one else here.”

 

“There’s the sky.”

 

Qi Xi refused, “I don’t want it today or the day after tomorrow, forget it.”

 

Fu Yanchuan wanted to bargain with him, but Qi Xi forcibly changed the subject, “You haven’t seen the gift yet, come and see!”

 

In the end, Fu Yanchuan accepted his belated gift. Qi Xi was embarrassed to give it to him, so he guessed what the gift was. But he didn’t guess it would be pink.

 

Qi Xi asked him seriously, “Don’t you like it?”

 

Fu Yanchuan didn’t know whether he should like the pink panties, so he bit Qi Xi’s lips after a soft peck in his lips: “Do you want me to wear them for you to see?”
