Chapter 12 - The Prince and the Frog 12
When Qin Lang’s pain gradually disappeared, his eyes turned red. When it hurts the most, he can endure it without making a sound but he suddenly wants to cry when it doesn’t hurt anymore.
“Qin Lang…” Ye Qian looked even sadder than him.
Qin Lang’s face was still pale and he looked at Ye Qian with red eyes. The young man’s eyes are both worried and distressed but more than anything, annoyance. Annoyed that he did not break such a deadlock earlier; annoyed that he didn’t protect Qin Lang earlier; annoyed that he didn’t discover Qin Lang’s stomach problem earlier.
Jinchen’s infirmary was also very spacious, there was also a simple rest area.
Qin Lang sits up on the little bed, pulls his knee in and buries his face on it as his tears silently flow out, wetting his blue school uniform.
Ye Qian finally couldn’t help it anymore. He sat beside Qin Lang and pulled him into his arms as he stroked Qin Lang’s back with his hands. His movements are somewhat jerky and awkward.
“Why can’t I hate you like I used to…If it was the same as before, I won’t be sad anymore…” Qin Lang’s voice had a strong nasal tone to it, very aggrieved and sad.
“Qin Lang, I don’t want you to hate me at all…” Ye Qian’s voice was a little hoarse with a hint of sadness.
Qin Lang raised his moist eyes to look at Ye Qian. They have never talked to each other for so long, at this moment, he seems to understand something. In fact, he really wants to be with Ye Qian. Just like last semester where they have meals together, work together, play ball together without having to say anything…Why does he miss Ye Qian so much? That feeling seems to be more than just friends.
“Qin Lang, can we get along again? These days when you ignore me, I feel very sad. Didn’t we make an agreement to go to the same university together? We’ll go to the University of Science and Technology in City A, do you remember?” Ye Qian held Qin Lang’s hand. He doesn’t want to let go at all. “Although we have our own homes, we are no longer children. We can be independent. We have the right to choose our friends.”
Qin Lang looked at him blankly.
Ye Qian was uneasy.
Actually, Qin Lang is talking to the system: “Tongtong, Qianqian’s words are no different than a confession, do you want me to accept it? Hum hum hum…”
The system refused to answer with a blank face and ruthlessly cut off the call. Heh, don’t even think of throwing dog food in front of him!
“Qin Lang?” Seeing that he wasn’t answering for a long time, Ye Qian looked at him uneasily.
Qin Lang’s eyes became red again and he pounced over to hug Ye Qian, his voice still nasal: “You’re so annoying. When did I say I don’t remember? I have a good memory, okay?”
Ye Qian choked but nothing came out, all he could do was hug the young man on his back.
The two remained in this position for two minutes.
“Fuck! How long are you going to hug?” Qin Lang said bluntly.
Ye Qian let go of him reluctantly. He also learned to make excuses: “I’m just waiting for you to finish crying. If I can’t see your face, you will not feel embarrassed.”
“Who cried! Don’t talk nonsense!” Qin Lang looked at him warningly, but there was an unnatural flush on his face.
“Okay, okay, you didn’t cry. It was me who cried.” Ye Qian completely followed him. His gaze fell on the young man’s appalling hand, “you, is it a dog? Does it need to be disinfected?”
Qin Lang stared at him angrily, seemingly about to explode again.
Ye Qian took his hand and blew on it carefully. It seems he has found a method to smooth his fur1It a weird idiom(?) or internet phrasing. The angry friend is like an angry kitten so to calm the kitten down, people touch it fur.. His voice was incredibly soft: “Does it still hurt? When did your stomach start hurting? I’ve never seen your stomach hurt before…”
Qin Lang tugged his hand uncomfortably but didn’t pull it out, with somewhat red ears, “It didn’t hurt too much…My stomach problems come from when I start losing weight. It occasionally hurts for a while if I skip breakfast. I just need to be patient…”
“Then why don’t you have breakfast?” Ye Qian still held his hand, there’s no sign of letting go at all.
Qin Lang lowered his head and whispered: “No one did it today. The food from outside is not clean so I don’t want to eat it.”
“I see…” Ye Qian no longer asked anymore. He got up and looked at Qin Lang, “Wait for me for a bit, I’ll go to the school doctor to get you some medicine. You really need to disinfected your hands too…”
“…” Qin Lang had an aggrieved look on his face.
After Ye Qian left, Qin Lang smiled gently. Ai. Little warm man, big brother likes it.
He held his head lazily and looked towards the door. He doesn’t know what the mechanism of this transmigrating project is. Is the target person virtual data or someone just like him? And there’s still many worlds after. Each world will have a specific target person, are they really going to make him fall in love with everyone so crazily? What if he likes them all? Then what is the meaning of this blind date? They’re not going for promiscuity, right?
Qin Lang hadn’t figured it out yet when Ye Qian came back with the medicine.
He let Ye Qian hold his hand and carefully apply medicine to him and bandage him. He looked at the gentle face of the young man, he couldn’t help but lean close to the other’s forehead. When there was only 1 centimeter left, he stopped abruptly.
Qin Lang, what are you doing? That tsundere bristle man wouldn’t kiss him directly! Stealing a kiss and won’t get caught is the correct way to do it. Scratch ambiguity, ah!
Ye Qian slowed down. He knew that Qin Lang was very close to him, he had been looking forward to it too but the other party stopped when there was only 1 centimeter left between them. Ye Qian couldn’t help but raise his head up to look at him.
Qin Lang panicked and pretended to look elsewhere but the secretly flushed ears revealed his different thoughts just now.
Ye Qian’s eyes darkened, cute. Another day missed.
[Ding, Ye Qian – favorability 5, the current favorability is 85.]
Qin Lang was a little surprised. He didn’t even kiss and already added 5 points, if that kiss landed, it will surely add another 5 points. Is it possible to fill it up directly after papapa?
Wa…Qin Lang rubbed his hands secretly. High school graduation party, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up! I want to sleep with little big brother2Xiao Gege,ah!
After that day, Ye Qian brings breakfast and lunch to Qin Lang every day. If Qin Lang didn’t have to go back at night, he seemed to want to pack even dinner for Qin Lang.
The relationship between the two was reconciled. The mood turned from cloudy to sunny and their grades also improved rapidly, reaching their previous state or even better than before.
With Ye Qian protecting Qin Lang, other classmates restrained themselves a lot. They don’t dare to laugh at Qin Lang in front of Ye Qian again but as long as Ye Qian is not by Qin Lang’s side, their harsh words just keep popping up.
He wants to be the eldest young master’s plaything? For what is Qin’s son wagging his tail in front of the opponent’s son? And the most outrageous thing is that, father Qin can’t afford to lose so he uses his own son, telling his son to climb into the eldest young master’s bed, this will make some way for the Fang family to let them go.
Although Qin Lang knew that many wealthy people were living for the chaos, yet to hear it from the mouths of this group of high school students, it sounds really dirty to the ears.
He suddenly remembered his 18 years old self. When he was 18, he already went to college, skipping several grades in the middle. There are many people of the same age around who have lived their life dazzling with paper and gold3indulging in a life of luxury and lakes of wine and forests of meat4sumptuous entertainment; excess indulge in pleasure. Now that he thinks about himself, he’s so wise. He learned to pretend to be cold since he was a child. Otherwise, even his school days will be miserable. One has to learn how to enjoy themselves before they can even start working hard, there’s no direction in life after all.
“Do it for the college entrance examination and leave those unimportant people alone.” Ye Qian has also heard more or less the slander about Qin Lang from those in the class. Rumors are endless so just ignore it.
“I know!” Qin Lang raised a smile. “I said earlier, I will surpass you. This time, I’m serious.” Qin Lang is really telling the truth.
But Ye Qian obviously didn’t care and just answered him like before: “Okay, I am waiting.”
After the high school entrance examination, it rained heavily in K City for two days.
Then, in this rainstorm, the Qin’s commercial building collapsed suddenly. Bankruptcy, stock market down, selling off, owner change…In just two days, all the industries under the Qin family have changed their name to Fang.
This battle, the Qin family suffered a crushing defeat. No one knows why the Fang family is so cruel to the Qin family that they don’t even give the other party a chance to survive. That was until President Qin of the Qin family was brought to court, convicted and jailed.
“I really regret it!” Yu Fang who originally looked like she was only in her twenties, in just half a year of torture, her look is now like her real age.
Qin Lang stood with his mother expressionlessly, looking at the man in the orange prison uniform inside the glass window. He has no feelings for this father. Although if one only looks at family alone, he is also a decent father and a qualified husband.
Yu Fang who couldn’t cry, “Is money that important? Destroying your conscience for the sake of money? Now what have you got? What did you give me and my son? Ah?”
The man inside pursed his lips. After a long while, he said hoarsely: “Xiao Fang, I’m sorry. Prepare a divorce agreement and I will sign it.”
The man’s words finally made Yu Fang’s eyes red. She hangs up and pulls Qin Lang away.
The mother and son stood at the gate of the prison looking at the desolate scenery around, no one spoke a word.
After a long time, Qin Lang still didn’t hear the woman cry.
“Mom, don’t worry. I will take care of you later.” Qin Lang said.
Yu Fang sniffed and gracefully took out a tissue to wipe the corners of her eyes, “Oaky, our baby has grown up.”
Qin Lang’s major in university is Finance. He successfully entered the University of Science and Technology in City A with first place in the examination in K City. On the day he went back to school, everyone looked at him with complicated eyes.
Sympathetic, surprised, envious, jealous, there are even disdainful and those who have broken to pieces.
But congratulating him, there was only one, Ye Qian.
After the man congratulated him, he told him he got what he wanted. He also majored in finance, so they can go to class together again. If they’re lucky, they can get the same dorm room.
The weather in K City is still hot. The high school classmate’s meeting was booked in a water manor. The environment of this water manor is very good. It was quiet and elegant, one can relax as soon as they walk in.
When Qin Lang arrived, most of the students in the first class had basically arrived. He swept around but didn’t see Ye Qian. He was a little anxious and helpless.
He came to this class meeting entirely to see Ye Qian. He didn’t want to stand in front of this group of people and let them laugh and humiliate him.
He just wanted to go out and send a text message to ask if Ye Qian would come, and as a result, Chen Ziyu came to greet him. He pulled him over as kindly as ever to sit next to him.
The party has started, Ye Qian didn’t come, the classmates also didn’t wait for him either. The eldest young master of the Fang family, if he doesn’t want to come, they can’t do anything about it.
Chen Ziyu was protecting Qin Lang so those classmates didn’t come to look for him for a while, he breathed a sigh of relief. But what happened to Chen Ziyu? Qin Lang didn’t believe that the good brother who had been insincere toward him before would be really kind to him when he was down.
However, Chen Ziyu really didn’t show any flaws. Even inside his eyes and from his mouth, it was all about missing when the two were still close. Qin Lang couldn’t hold back so Chen Ziyu handed him a glass of wine.
The system reminds him: “Don’t drink, this guy drugged it.”
Qin Lang hesitated, in the end, he chose to give Chen Ziyu face and drank it.
When Qin Lang couldn’t see Chen Ziyu face, the corner of his lips hooked up, his eyes were vague.
The system blows up: “Are you an idiot? Did you really drink the medicine?
Qin Lang calmly replied to him: “I didn’t drink it yet! Where is my family Qianqian?”
System: Twenty minutes away.”
Qin Lang added: “Fake Chen will take me away in a while, you give Qianqian some information about me. Don’t give it too early. By the time he found me, my clothes had already been ripped.”
System: “…” his host, very routine, ah.
Not long after, Qin Lang felt a burst of heat in his body. He didn’t feel well so he got up to go to the bathroom. On the sink, he washed his face with cold water to sober his mind up but the cold water couldn’t lower his temperature.
He felt something was wrong. Ye Qian won’t come today. But if he left now, he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Sure enough, as soon as he got out of the bathroom, a man stood in the hallway. The same as before, with a gentle smile on his lips, but his eyes did not hide his desire.
Qin Lang finally understood. He bit his tongue to keep himself awake, and said in a cold tone: “Brother Yu, I do not feel well, I’ll leave first.”
Chen Ziyu chuckled lightly and walked past Qin Lang to hug him from behind with his lips touching Qin Lang’s beautiful neck, “ALang has been having a hard time lately, right? How could brother Yu be willing to let you live such a hard life? Follow me. How about I let you go back to the days when you used to have brocade clothes and jade meals5a life of luxury; extravagance?
“Let me go!” Qin Lang struggled but the heat in his body was jumping up and down, making him powerless.
“Don’t be afraid. Brother Yu has always been kind to you.” After he say that, Chen Ziyu put a kiss on the nape of his neck.
“You!” Qin Lang’s hands were restrained by him, powerless to resist. He reached for the phone in his trouser pocket. In a panic, he dialed the phone but he couldn’t see who he had called.
Ye Qian was still in the car, he was delayed a little bit at home today. He hoped Qin Lang was still waiting for him at their classmates’ meeting. When they get near the water manor, his phone rings.
It was Qin Lang.
The author has something to say: A small section of a medical room:
Qin Lang: Ye Qian, I miss you so much. I want to make peace with you but our dads are rivals. Your dad wants to kill my dad. I’m so confused and so sad but I still miss you. I shouldn’t have…like you right? Oh heaven. I actually fell in love with my good friend! No, it’s not sure yet. Then, give a kiss and see the reaction? So nervous. Ye Qian will definitely discover it, right? Why, my heart beating so fast even before he kisses me? Bad. Ye Qian looked up at me, he shouldn’t find out about it right? Oh heaven…am I an idiot?
System: …Yes, you are.
[You’re too deep into the play that there’s no cure for it, please give up treatment.]
T/N: System, I agree with you. This guy is no cold male god but a professional actor.
