Chapter 53 Accidentally Entered a Livestream
byChapter 53: An Unexpected Livestream Interruption
After an intimate encounter with Fu Huan, Gu Shiying felt a bit out of sorts. The two stayed home, not venturing out, though Gu Shiying made sure Fu Huan didn't get his way again.
Truth be told, Fu Huan had been very gentle, and Gu Shiying was fine by the next day. But a cheeky remark from Fu Huan had left Gu Shiying in no mood to engage with him.
What was done was done; both had enjoyed the pleasure of physical closeness. Gu Shiying truly acknowledged his identity as gay. Of course, his gay orientation was exclusively for Fu Huan; he felt nothing for anyone else.
However, Gu Shiying's focus wasn't on that. Instead, after their intimate contact, he found he could no longer hear Fu Huan's most immediate desires. Was it because the deepest part of Fu Huan's longing had been satisfied?
If he couldn't fulfill Fu Huan's desires, and Fu Huan's cravings remained unmet, would the inner voice persist?
Over the past two days, Fu Huan's inner voice had been quiet, making Gu Shiying feel even more drawn to him.
On Sunday evening, Gu Shiying and Fu Huan returned to school. Fu Huan's place was a bit of a distance from campus, and with both having 8 AM classes the next day, every minute saved counted.
Yang Shuhang had been out for an offline event over the weekend and only returned to school on Sunday afternoon.
The show he recorded during the summer had already aired online, and his performance was quite impressive. He came across as genuinely authentic, unlike many who were forced by their agencies to cultivate specific personas. Amidst a sea of copy-pasted personalities, Yang Shuhang's naturally endearing, enthusiastic, and witty character made him stand out, earning him a significant fan base.
Yang Shuhang asked him, "Ying'er, you weren't at school this weekend?"
Gu Shiying replied, "No, I wasn't."
Yang Shuhang pressed, "Where did you go? You don't have relatives here. When you're out, remember to let me know."
Gu Shiying felt Yang Shuhang might not even be able to take care of himself, yet he was touched by the concern. He smiled and said, "I went to Fu Huan's place." He hadn't intended to hide it from them anyway.
Yang Shuhang exclaimed, "Wow, what's Brother Huan's place like?"
Gu Shiying replied, "It's a rented apartment. It's alright."
Yang Shuhang then poured out his woes, "I'm thinking about renting a place off-campus too. Lately, some fans have been waiting for me at the school gate. I'm worried it might cause problems for the school."
Gu Shiying said, "It might not be necessary. Even if you're not at school, they'll still come."
Yang Shuhang was receptive to advice and immediately dropped the idea. "You're right. It's not easy to come back. Next week I have a variety show to record. Let's have dinner together!"
Gu Shiying glanced at Fu Huan, but Yang Shuhang, being particularly clingy, immediately draped himself over Gu Shiying's neck. He must be the type who's adored by elders at home, given his penchant for affection.
"I'm treating everyone to dinner tonight. We'll be seeing less of each other from now on, Ying'er. I'm really going to miss you."
Fu Huan: "..."
As Yang Shuhang's arm brushed his neck, Gu Shiying heard Yang Shuhang's simple and pure inner thoughts.
Huh? His ability to hear inner voices was still active.
[I want to be a positive and inspiring idol.]
When Gu Shiying first gained this ability, he'd occasionally heard the thoughts of a music student. That person's desires were starkly different from Yang Shuhang's—all they thought about was "I want to be famous, I want to be famous, even if it's through controversy" and "I need to find a sugar daddy." In contrast, Yang Shuhang was truly innocent, with an exceptionally pure heart.
People like Yang Shuhang were rare. This was partly due to his nurturing family environment and partly because he might have been born with an innate kindness.
Gu Shiying was happy to offer some encouraging words: "Sure, let's celebrate our future superstar's success."
Fu Huan didn't mind having dinner with Yang Shuhang, but his gaze kept returning to Yang Shuhang's arm wrapped around Gu Shiying's neck.
Yang Shuhang said, "Hey, that works." Suddenly, he exclaimed in Gu Shiying's ear, "Holy shit!"
Gu Shiying was startled and jumped up. "What are you yelling for? You're going to make me deaf!"
Yang Shuhang pushed him back down. "Who bit your neck like that? Damn, your partner is really fierce! That rough?"
Gu Shiying: "..." He hadn't seen anyone outside these past two days, so he hadn't noticed his neck was covered with marks left by Fu Huan.
Yang Shuhang covered his face. "I mean, Ying'er, you've been dating for so long. When are you going to introduce me to your partner?"
Gu Shiying looked at Fu Huan. "My partner, him."
Yang Shuhang thought he was joking. "Stop messing around."
Gu Shiying opened his mouth to speak but then closed it again.
Fu Huan had been a bit annoyed by Yang Shuhang clinging to Gu Shiying, but seeing how Yang Shuhang completely regarded Gu Shiying as straight, he felt utterly speechless. Some people really were single-minded and couldn't be swayed.
Just then, Guan Yu returned. Yang Shuhang immediately dropped the topic of Gu Shiying's girlfriend and excitedly shared his upcoming schedule, mentioning he might get to meet his favorite idol.
Gu Shiying and Fu Huan walked behind, and Gu Shiying quietly asked Fu Huan, "Why don't any of them believe that you're my partner?"
Fu Huan ruffled his hair. "Because we haven't formally introduced ourselves to them."
Gu Shiying said, "But we're in the same dorm. Shouldn't it be obvious? I think Brother Yu has already figured it out."
Fu Huan replied, "Guan Yu is smarter."
Gu Shiying chuckled.
The implication was that Yang Shuhang was a bit slow.
For dinner, they had stone pot fish and drank some beer. Despite being from a wealthy family, Yang Shuhang had a particular fondness for beer, and the three dorm mates would occasionally join him for a drink.
During the meal, Yang Shuhang received a phone call. After hanging up, he told Gu Shiying and the others, "Guys, my agent told me to do a livestream from the dorm on Friday to show my authentic college life. If any of you aren't comfortable with it, I'll tell her no."
Gu Shiying naturally supported Yang Shuhang's career. "I'm fine with it."
Fu Huan didn't often stay in the dorm and didn't have many personal items there, so he nodded. "Sure." He then turned to Gu Shiying. "We'll leave right after class on Friday."
Gu Shiying hesitated for a moment but nodded. He had actually thought it would be fine to return to the dorm after Yang Shuhang's livestream, but Fu Huan had already decided they would leave.
Guan Yu glanced at the two of them but didn't tease, maintaining a neutral attitude. "I'm fine with it too."
Yang Shuhang raised his glass. "Thanks for the support, guys. When I make it big, I'll start my own variety show and invite all our university friends to join. We'll all make it together! It's all in the glass!"
Gu Shiying and the other two replied, "Sure, it's all in the glass."
Two days later, Yang Shuhang packed his bags and set off for work, while the others in the dorm continued with their campus lives.
Lately, whenever Gu Shiying scrolled through videos, he would come across edited clips of Yang Shuhang from the show. Yang Shuhang now had his own team and had even released his own song. It probably wouldn't be long before he could perform at music festivals.
He was gaining some recognition, but there were also haters who exposed his past as a member of a bar band, accusing the wealthy young master of exploiting them. The topic even made trending topics, and Gu Shiying felt angry just reading about it.
Fu Huan took his phone away. "Stop looking. The entertainment industry is a deep pool. He has his own team to handle it."
Gu Shiying had just come out of the library, and Fu Huan had gone to buy him a warm drink. Seeing him scrolling through videos about Yang Shuhang, Fu Huan snatched the phone away.
"You've been focusing too much on him lately," Fu Huan said plaintively.
"Have I?" Gu Shiying felt he hadn't been focusing that much on Yang Shuhang. They occasionally chatted in the group chat, but Yang Shuhang liked to DM him privately, sharing stories about meeting his idol, taking photos together, and talking about autographed photos. In short, Yang Shuhang had been sharing his happy experiences with him over the past few days.
Gu Shiying was pretty happy himself, but he didn't expect Fu Huan to get jealous about it.
He took a sip of his hot milk tea and laughed, "You're even jealous over this?"
Fu Huan squeezed the back of his neck. "Mm, no chatting with him tonight. Can we go home to stay?"
Gu Shiying didn't answer directly, instead blinking playfully at him. "Yang Shuhang isn't even in the dorm, and don't you have an 8 a.m. class tomorrow?"
Fu Huan: "I don't want to stay at the dorm. The bed's too small."
Gu Shiying pretended not to understand the subtext. "But the weather forecast says it might snow tonight. It'll be inconvenient to come to campus tomorrow. Maybe we should just stay at the dorm?"
Fu Huan knew he understood. "You're faking."
Gu Shiying gave his hand a quick squeeze, and Fu Huan's inner voice, silent for two days, came roaring back!
[Want to do it with Gu Shiying.]
Gu Shiying let go just as Fu Huan was soothed. He dashed ahead, then turned back teasingly. "No way. Not unless you catch me."
Fu Huan strode after him. "Gu Shiying, don't let me catch you."
Gu Shiying's playfulness made him forget what he'd originally meant to do. He'd gotten a taste and was hungry for more, but he didn't want to force Gu Shiying either.
Fu Huan didn't succeed in talking Gu Shiying into coming home, but he found another way to get what he wanted. While Gu Shiying was showering, Fu Huan slipped in, pushed him up against the door, and kissed him until his legs went weak—so weak that Fu Huan almost had to dress and bathe him.
When Fu Huan finished washing up, Gu Shiying kicked him out of the bathroom.
Leaning against the door outside, Fu Huan smirked, "You're just going to use me and toss me aside?"
Gu Shiying snorted through the door. "Shut up. I don't want to talk to you tonight."
Ugh, who could handle listening to inner thoughts while kissing and doing... *that*? Triple torture, okay?
Fu Huan was so annoying!
By Friday morning, Fu Huan started reminding them they were supposed to go home for the weekend. Gu Shiying had promised to stay with him, but he'd been staying at school ever since agreeing, so they hadn't been able to be intimate. Fu Huan could hold back the first couple days, but whenever he thought of Gu Shiying, he'd start wanting it again—he really didn't want to hold back anymore.
What could Gu Shiying do except agree?
However, just before class let out, Gu Shiying remembered he needed to film some footage over the weekend. He hadn't brought his GoPro, so he needed to swing by the dorm to grab it.
He texted Fu Huan on WeChat: I want to shoot some material this weekend. I'm going back to get my GoPro. Wait for me in the car, alright?
Fu Huan: Mm.
As soon as class ended, Gu Shiying went back to the dorm, but then he got a message from the class monitor in the group chat saying he needed to log into the student backend to fill out some family information, so he opened his laptop to do that first.
Fu Huan waited and waited, but Gu Shiying didn't come down. He saw Guan Yu's message in the dorm group chat about going to a relative's place for the weekend, so he made a beeline upstairs.
He'd been holding back for a week—time for a little appetizer. He didn't want to wait another second.
Just as Gu Shiying finished submitting the form and stood up to leave, the dorm door was pushed open.
"Why didn't you wait for me downstairs? I just finished filling out the forms and was about to come down."
Fu Huan kicked the door shut behind him, pulled Gu Shiying close by the waist, and kissed him without another word. "Wanted a kiss."
They'd been staying in the dorm all week, and with Guan Yu around, they'd hardly gotten to kiss.
Gu Shiying let him kiss him, kissing back.
As soon as he responded, Fu Huan sucked hard on his tongue, practically trying to melt him into his own body—they were just short of going all the way right there in the dorm.
But that was just Fu Huan thinking. He might dare, but Gu Shiying wasn't bold enough to go that far.
They were absorbed in a deep kiss when the door that wasn't fully closed was suddenly pushed open.
"Hehehe, my roommates aren't here today. Let me show you all the dorm I've lived in for three years of university. Ta-da!"
The live chat was flying by, with several lines of comments flashing by every second.
"So excited!"
"Baby's dorm must be different from everyone else's."
"Hahaha, right on time to see baby's dorm. Want to join baby's university life."
"Being A Hang's roommate must be something special. Can't wait to see."
Yang Shuhang dramatically pushed the dorm door wide open.
Then, two incredibly handsome faces in profile appeared on the live stream. Both turned to look as Yang Shuhang barged in.
The chat went silent for a few seconds.
They... seemed to have just seen two super handsome guys kissing.
Some fan sent a comment: "A Hang's roommates really are something else too."
