As the Minor Gay Love Rival in Het Novels-Chapter 7.9
Chapter 7.9
Within the car, the atmosphere was becoming more and more strange. The three didn’t expect Fan Yuan to say such words, so they were clearly at a loss on how to react.
Of course, Fan Yuan didn’t say those words because he had any kind of bias towards Lei Siye. It was just that if any one of the three had an upper hand against the rest, it would not be beneficial for his own well-being. The best result was that they were evenly matched so no one could kill the other. That way, he would be the safest.
Fan Yuan got down from Han Lang’s lap and intended to move to the passenger seat at the front. However, he was intercepted in the middle of his way. Feng Ze reprimanded him solemnly, “Don’t mess around.”
Holding back his anger, Fan Yuan explained nicely, “The back seat is too crowded. I want to sit in front!”
Feng Ze leaned close to his ear and whispered, “If you sit beside him, he will flip the car over in the next moment. Do you believe me?”
As soon as Fan Yuan lifted his gaze, he saw Lei Siye staring at him as if he were a wolf eyeing his prey. He looked like a carnivore that had been starving for ages, and now that he saw a plump little lamb, he would be doing himself a disservice if he didn’t eat it.
Fan Yuan silently swallowed down his retort and obediently sat down in the back seat. Lei Siye was unable to conceal his disappointment as he cursed out loud and started the engine to continue the journey.
Having slept for such a long time, Fan Yuan didn’t feel sleepy at all, so he made small talk with the rest. Those three were hell-bent on finding out who was the “person he liked”. At the beginning, Fan Yuan found it in him to patiently play tai chi with them, but finally, he lost his patience and burst out angrily, “That man is the Zhusha Zhi in my heart, my white moonlight, no one can compare to him! No one can replace him!”
As soon as he finished his rant, the three men fell into complete silence. Fan Yuan was so scared that he started shrinking, afraid for dear life that any of them would do something drastic. However, having experienced the boy suddenly faint, how could the three men get the guts to force him once again? So no matter how angry or upset they were, they could only sulk inwardly.
Lei Siye asked, “You like him so much, but how does he treat you? The apocalypse is so dangerous, how was he okay with throwing you to Jiang Meng? He’s not afraid that you’ll be killed by her?”
He was paralysed all of a sudden!! Hit the nail on its head! When Fan Yuan perceived the probing gazes shooting towards him from both left and right, the words were practically stuck in his throat. If things were as per usual, he would casually come up with a few sentences to create a story, but Feng Ze and Jiang Meng understood the original host too well. His social circle was only that big. As long as they attempted to clarify the truth with the female lead, his lie would be seen through just like that, so Fan Yuan could only be as vague as possible.
Fan Yuan decided to be thick-skinned and come up with some nonsense, “He probably doesn’t know that I like him since I was able to confess in time before the apocalypse came. But I won’t give up. Even if I can’t ever meet him again in this lifetime, it doesn’t matter, I’ll keep on waiting. Anyway, I won’t fall for anyone else.”
He placed great emphasis on the last sentence. As he finished speaking, his entire person felt very much at ease. He had already put things so bluntly, and according to his observations, these three people had extremely strong personalities, so they would absolutely never go as far as to pester or stalk him. Thus, it was even plausible that they would give up on him completely.
However, he heard the three men go “pfft” all at the same time.
Fan Yuan: “(⊙v⊙)???”
Lei Siye put on a cheeky smile, “Silly boy, do you know how long a lifetime is?”
Han Lang spoke earnestly, “You’re still too young to understand a thing like ‘feelings’.”
Feng Ze summed it all up, “Quickly forget about that childish crush, it’s good for you and for us as well.”
Fan Yuan: “&#k2026;&#k2026;” You’re the childish one!! Your entire family is childish!!! (&#k256U;&#k2035;&#k25J1;&#k2032;)&#k256U;&#kUR35;&#k253K;&#k2501;&#k253K;
Since his warning fell on deaf ears, Fan Yuan shrunk back into his seat dejectedly. If anyone touched him, he would glare at them. Han Lang smiled helplessly, “I thought I’d picked up a little rabbit, but it turned out to be a kitten that scratches others. How can you be so adorable, hm?”
Hearing the rising intonation that carried a teasing manner, Fan Yuan unknowingly glanced back at Han Lang. As the man wore a little smile evident from the corners of his mouth, it struck Fan Yuan as extremely similar to a certain someone. He felt, I must’ve missed that bastard too much, if not, why does he look like everyone? It’s simply ridiculous!
After scorning himself for three seconds, Fan Yuan shut his eyes and silently recited Yan Rui’s name. Thinking that the man had been so heartless to allow him to suffer all alone here, he felt incredibly dejected again……
Unbeknownst to Fan Yuan, he cried in his sleep, looking wronged and heartbroken as he murmured “Yan Rui, you bastard”, and his cheeks ended up completely wet.
Feng Ze took the boy and embraced him in his arms while Fan Yuan’s tears soaked his shirt. He couldn’t help but reveal a wry smile. The person he likes was lying in his embrace while shedding tears for another man. In this world, there was nothing more suffocating than this.
He ignored someone’s murderous gaze and planted a kiss on Fan Yuan’s pink lips. Perhaps he had once thought of letting go, but now he knew very well that he couldn’t bring himself to do it. Since their reunion, the boy had been engraved in his blood and bones. No matter what, he would never give up this boy. He wasn’t sure of what had gone wrong, but one thing was very clear — no one could take him away, absolutely no one.
*******************
At daybreak, they arrived in H City. Who knew what agreement the three guys had come to privately, but they stopped appearing in front of him all together, and separately instead. Meanwhile, Fan Yuan was happy that he didn’t have to deal with that. Whenever he had the opportunity, he would go to increase the hatred points that the female lead had for him and force her to bully him.
Even he himself felt that he was acting too cheap, but what else could he do to complete the mission? Moreover, the female lead was one with a high tolerance. No matter how sarcastic he was, she would just sneer coldly and curse out a “Bitch” before leaving. At this point, Fan Yuan could only bring out the big guns by showing off the male lead in front of her face to force her hand.
The story went like this. It was deep into the night, the winds hurling strong. The female lead had snuck into Fan Yuan’s room and picked him up from the bed to give him a big fat beating. Fan Yuan tried really hard to protect his face, but left the other areas of his body for her to beat up. From start to finish, he didn’t make a single noise or let out a single word as he was afraid for dear life that his three bodyguards would be alerted. Unfortunately, those three big brothers had brought along their own radar detection system, so the female lead was caught red-handed before she could escape.
The female lead was so scared that she had gone pale, but Fan Yuan was even more afraid than her! What the f*ck, the male lead wanted to kill the female lead! He quickly intervened, “Let her go! If anyone touches her, I’ll be angry with you! ”
Jiang Meng: “……”
Han Lang & Feng Ze & Lei Siye: “……”
Before she walked away, Jiang Meng directed a vehement glare at him. That kind of gaze was filled with so much poison and hatred, causing Fan Yuan to be so frightened that even his liver had started trembling. Then again, he thought, the female lead was finally going to start acting seriously. He should be overjoyed!
He was overjoyed, but the three door gods with darkened expressions were extremely unhappy. They were thinking that out of the two siblings, one of them was a sadist, while the other seemed to lean towards a trembling M. What if one day that silly boy was tortured to death by that crazy woman?
Han Lang firmly asserted, “Xiao Yuan, learn some self-defense skills from us.”
And thus, Fan Yuan embarked on the path of learning. Lei Siye trained him in close combat, Han Lang trained him in shooting, and Feng Ze trained him in the skilful use of knives. With these three people taking turns to come to the fore, it was quite hard to bear for Fan Yuan’s little physique. Time after time, he protested only to no avail, so his resentment had already pierced through the skies.
It wasn’t that he wanted to rest on his laurels, the key point was that a person couldn’t change so easily! Putting aside his good looks, the original host had no redeemable qualities, only a huge pile of bad ones. First, he was ungrateful. Second, he was vicious. Third, he was good at pretending to be weak. Fourth, he was indeed weak, and extremely weak at that! He would always be pulling others down at every minute.
As a result, Fan Yuan felt extremely helpless towards dealing with his current situation of being pursued by the three men. These face-con dogs that only only looked at the appearance and not the connotation — they were simply vulgar! Simply superficial! Simply lacking any principles!
Today, it was Lei Siye’s turn to train him in close combat. In a mere two to three blows, Fan Yuan was knocked down. He sprawled on the mat as he panted heavily in an attempt to catch his breath, and he didn’t get up even after a long time. Witnessing this, Lei Siye’s heart was in pain, but he still gritted his teeth and told Fan Yuan to get up. Fan Yuan directed a glance at him with a crying face, “Da ge, please spare me. I’m not cut out for this!”
Lei Siye squatted down to meet his gaze, giving his head a rub, “I don’t want you to suffer either, but we’re in the apocalypse now. What if a time comes when I’m not by your side — who will protect you then?”
Hearing that, Fan Yuan’s heart immediately sank. He had almost forgotten that Lei Siye wasn’t the same as Han Lang and Feng Ze. He was a cannon fodder. Before he was able to reach the imperial capital, he would be killed as a result of the female lead’s evil designs. Lei Siye would die much earlier than him. Fan Yuan stared at the man’s distressed eyes and opened his mouth to say something, but he decided to keep the words to himself.
He couldn’t even save himself. He had no qualifications to save others.
Seeing that the child suddenly appeared lost, Lei Siye embraced him as a manner of comfort. He noticed that the boy wasn’t struggling in resistance as per usual, and was even very obedient. Lei Siye assumed that Fan Yuan had received a huge scare and consoled, “I was just teasing you. How could I bear to leave you and let you be bullied by others?”
Fan Yuan’s heart was filled with complicated emotions. He couldn’t help but give a reminder, “Then it’s an agreement. You have to protect yourself well, you can’t just casually die.”
Lei Siye was unaware of Fan Yuan’s inner complications and could only perceive that the boy was showing care for him. For that moment, he felt so elated that he picked the boy up and spun around several times, making Fan Yuan go dizzy. Before Fan Yuan was able to recover to his senses, the man pressed his lips against his and kissed him deeply.
Immediately, Fan Yuan tried to push him back, but Lei Siye was as solid as a stone, so Fan Yuan was forced to accept this not-so-tender kiss. His pink tongue was played with and sucked by that man, causing Fan Yuan to feel like he was going to be eaten up. But he didn’t feel any disgust. It turned out that what he felt the last time they kissed wasn’t just an illusion. When he was kissing this man, he really did get that familiar feeling.
“Yan Rui, it really isn’t you? Why do I get that feeling when I’m kissing someone else?”
Lei Siye stopped plundering into his mouth and saw that Fan Yuan’s eyes were reddened, layered with a thin glaze of tears. He unknowingly laid a kiss by the corners of Fan Yuan’s eyes. At this, Fan Yuan’s entire body went still, then he proceeded to grab Lei Siye by the collar and question, “You better make it clear to me…”
Confused, Lei Siye asked, “Make what clear?”
“Why do you like me?”
Lei Siye felt a rare sense of discomfort as his brows furrowed, “I don’t know either. When I first saw you, I wanted to get close to you, to possess you. I wanted you to belong to just me alone, and no one else could look at you.”
“I don’t believe it. Since you liked me from the first time we met, why did you leave me and allow me to be bullied by Jiang Meng?”
Seeing his wronged look, Lei Siye only wished to give his life to him. He patiently explained, “I’ve lived for nearly 30 years and I’ve never liked anyone. You’re also a man, and you’re so young, so I didn’t think that I actually liked you. Only when I thought things through, did I finally regret it all……”
Fan Yuan was aware that the man’s big hand was held against his hip, kneading it in a not-so-honest manner. With this kind of familiar, indecent action, what was there to doubt? It was perhaps due to the influence of the man’s original body that Lei Siye’s strength had suddenly become much greater than before. Fan Yuan felt angry, but he also felt like laughing as he hooked his arms around Lei Siye’s neck and said, “Big fool!”
He actually sealed the memory and followed him over. Did he think that that wasn’t considered a breach of their agreement? How stupid! So stupid that he almost didn’t recognise him!
This was the second time Lei Siye had seen Fan Yuan reveal a smile like this. The last time, he was mistaken for someone else, so he asked in a hoarse voice, “Xiao Yuan, who am I?”
How could Fan Yuan be unaware of what the guy really meant? He was getting jealous over himself! Fan Yuan reached out with his index finger and poked the tip of Lei Siye’s nose, carrying a sly smile as he said, “You’re a big pervert, and you’re also a crude man. You’re now called Lei Siye, and you’re also……”
Lei Siye grabbed his naughty fingers and nibbled his fingertips, curbing the uneasiness in his heart as he continued asking, “Also?”
Fan Yuan buried his face in the man’s neck and laughed happily, “You’re also the man I like!”
Lei Siye felt that his head was about to burst open, he couldn’t recover for a very long time. He placed Fan Yuan on the chair beside him and squatted by the boy’s legs to confirm word by word, “Baby, are you sober? Look at me clearly, I’m Lei Siye.”
Fan Yuan couldn’t help but roll his eyes as he landed a kiss on Lei Siye’s cheek, “I’ll only be intimate with the person I like. I’ve said this before, you’ve forgotten?”
Suddenly, Lei Siye stood up and went over to the sandbag beside him to give it a hard punch, instantly splitting the simple bag open and causing the sand within to scatter all over the ground. He was frozen in place, standing there unmovingly for a great deal of time. Just as Fan Yuan had doubts as to whether he had been scared stupid, the man turned over and pulled him into his embrace.
Lei Siye murmured, “Am I dreaming? I must be dreaming. If this is a dream, I don’t want to wake up……”
As Fan Yuan lightly patted him on the back, he wanted to tell him that it wasn’t a dream. He really did like him. However, before he was able to even open his mouth, the man took the lead in sealing his lips, refusing to give him any chance to reject.
