Chapter 28: To entrust oneself
After school on Friday, they had already discussed beforehand whose house they would go to. Although it may have sounded strange to the others, as if they were doing something that couldn’t be mentioned, it was something that they had to do. How could Jiang Yang have the courage to go to the other persons place alone and pretend to be him? He wouldn’t even know which room is his and where everything is placed. Not knowing such things, he would definitely be exposed within minutes.
In the end they decided to go to Qin Xu’s place. Jiang Yang prepared an excuse in advance and asked Qin Xu to give his parents a call to explain that he would stay at his classmates place this weekend and would not go home.
Father Jiang and mother Jiang both trusted their son and very quickly agreed. They asked if they should speak to the other parents or bring a gift to show appreciation but with Jiang Yang’s urge Qin Xu said: “Mum don’t worry. I’m just going to Qin Xu’s place to play. If we’re too formal, it’ll only make them uncomfortable.”
Hearing Qin Xu’s name, father Jiang and mother Jiang thought it sounded familiar but momentarily couldn’t recall where. In fact, they had heard their daughter Jiang Yuan mention his name when she shared various gossip about her school over dinner. She casually mentioned that her brother is a famous character at school and, together with another male student, they are referred to as the school idols. Unfortunately, their relationship wasn’t too good.
To avoid Huang Shao gossiping about it after finding out them living together for the weekend, they even purposely swapped with the students on duty today and allowed Huang Shao, Xie Zhe and the others to head home first.
After a simple clean, they packed up and prepared to head home together.
Jiang Yang subconsciously grabbed his own bike, but Qin Xu threw him his keys while saying: “There are still classmates at school. You should use mine.”
Thinking that it was reasonable, Jiang Yang went over to the other bike. Qin Xu’s bike wasn’t hard to find. The most eye-catching one is naturally his; a red and gold bike with flame patterns on the side.
Jiang Yang stepped onto the pedal and accelerated for a moment while enjoying the breeze. It is in a man’s nature to love cars. Unfortunately, they are still underaged and could not drive and could only ride bicycles. With a good and expensive bicycle like this, Jiang Yang felt the wind whistling past his ears and felt very exhilarated.
Qin Xu led the way and they entered the gates to a complex. Jiang Yang cleared his face from expressions and brought Qin Xu, the original resident, in as a visitor.
They locked up their bikes and walked in.
A notification sound rang from Qin Xu’s pocket and Qin Xu proceeded to pull his phone out. He glanced at the screen and, as if he had just recalled something, he looked back at Jiang Yang with bright eyes.
Suddenly, he had a bad premonition.
Jiang Yang leaned back, dodging his look of expectation and raised his alertness. It definitely wasn’t something good.
Sure enough, Qin Xu smiled and said: “Let’s have a quick discussion.”
Jiang Yang resolutely shook his head: “No.”
Qin Xu ignored this. He stepped up and looped his hand across his shoulder enthusiastically: “I haven’t finished. It’s actually very simple, a very small thing. Someone as domineering as you should be able to get through it in a blink of an eye.”
He stretched out two fingers and tried to convince him, “This is something I had made an appointment for since a while ago and it must be done tomorrow. It’s just getting a couple of piercings; very quick. I already have the earrings prepared.”
Jiang Yang heard this and immediately frowned. He mercilessly rejected him, “No. Impossible. Not negotiable.”
On his face was a disdainful expression. It was clear that he was wondering why a man would want to get something as sissy as earrings.
Qin Xu didn’t agree with this. There are plenty of men in the world who wear earrings like Beckham and McGrady. How are they sissy? With earrings, they became even more handsome and sexy!
He casually listed a long list of names and sounded very persuasive. Jiang Yang looked at the pictures and had to admit that it really did look manly and not girly. But….Jiang Yang continued to shake his head resolutely.
“Why?” Qin Xu as dissatisfied.
Jiang Yang: “If you want to get a piercing you can go ahead and do it when we get our bodies back.”
Qin Xu however said: “That shop is run by my brother’s friend. The earrings are all designed and made by him and a piercing doesn’t hurt. I only managed to get my brother to buy me a pair after convincing him for a long time. If I miss this chance, I might not be able to do it in the future.”
Jiang Yang scoffed, “What does that have to do with me.”
Qin Xu made a bitter expression and looked up at him pitifully but Jiang Yang remained expressionless and continued walking ahead.
“My love for you is limitless!”
Suddenly, deafening loud music started playing and Jiang Yang who was not prepared for it was surprised to the point that he missed a step and fell forwards. Thinking that he would definitely fall flat onto his face, he squeezed his eyes shut but he felt himself falling onto a solid chest.
Jiang Yang looked up and saw Qin Xu’s smiling face, “You okay?”
Qin Xu saw that he was about to fall and before his brain could think, his body had already moved over to catch him. Unfortunately, he reacted a second to slow and ended up falling onto his butt, acting like a cushion.
Jiang Yang was dazed for a moment, but he quickly recovered his expression back into a frown. He silently climbed up, patted the dirt off his palms and reached out while saying faintly: “Thank you.”
Qin Xu reached out without any hesitation and grabbed onto his hand. He stood up but, because of inertia, his body leaned forward and he his face almost fell onto Jiang Yang’s face.
From not far away, a dancing aunt apologised for scaring everyone and said that it was because she didn’t adjust the volume properly. She saw two young men on the ground and quickly asked: “Child, did you break anything?”
Qin Xu looked over and shook his head coldly. He then turned back to Jiang Yang and said with a smile: “Since I saved you, rather than entrusting yourself to me, why don’t you help me get that piercing? What do you think?”
Jiang Yang looked at him and said with a helpless look, “On a biological level, it could be said that I saved you. My body is on the bottom acting as the cushion.”
Qin Xu hooked his arm over his shoulders. His dark eyes sparkled as if there were crystals inside and he continued to insist, “You shouldn’t say that. Since you you’re not willing, then you can entrust yourself to me and I will reluctantly accept.”
Jiang Yang rolled his eyes: “Get lost.”
“Get a piercing or entrust yourself to me. You choose one.”
“I won’t choose any of it.” Jiang Yang didn’t fall for it and resolutely refused. He even looked at him with a slight look of disgust, “Don’t use my face to make such a wretched expression.”
Qin Xu heard but didn’t listen. He immediately placed his hands under his chin and blinked shamelessly while acting cute. Since it wasn’t his own face, he didn’t feel any pressure doing this. He even wanted to take photos of it. “Please~”
Jiang Yang couldn’t look straight at him and wanted to slap his face aside.
Qin Xu guessed his thoughts and reminded him: “This is your body.”
He reduced the strength in the hand that he had already stretched out and lightly patted his face.
Qin Xu felt proud. He even sidled up to him and used his palm to rub his face while blinking.
Jiang Yang: “…….” He really didn’t want to see this. He refused to admit that this idiot here was someone he had hated with all his guts before.
