Chapter 67 – Little Squirrel Teething

In Bai Huai’s moments, there was a picture of a circular toothy mark against his neck. It’s still fresh and reddish. And as if that’s not enough, the caption reads ‘Family squirrel is teething. He likes to bite his way around.’

…..

…..

…..

Jian Songyi is the squirrel!

He is the one teething!

What does he mean that he is biting around? 

What’s wrong with that?

Yang Yue was frightened by the sudden blush creeping against Jian Songyi’s face.

He had not seen Brother Song blush in anger before. Yang Yue quickly withdrew his phone and said nervously, “Brother Song, are you alright?”

Jian Songyi did his best to calm himself and replied, “What can I do for you?”

Yang Yue observed his expression again. When he confirmed that Jian Songyi was not that upset, he lets out a sigh of relief. “Well, it’s no big deal. It’s just that when you were out in Beicheng for a week, Bai Huai found a date. When I returned this morning to hear the news, I was scared to death. You didn’t appear in the group discussion, and I thought you were sulking.”

Jian Songyi was not sulking! He just broke his phone screen, and someone decided to become a piece of garbage in silence.

That is for the fear that the world will be in chaos and ruin.

Yang Yue didn’t seem surprised by Jian Songyi’s reaction, so he asked tentatively, “Brother Song, did you already know?”

“Of course, I know. Why won’t I know? We are very good brothers, after all.”  Jian Songyi said lightly. 

Bai Huai felt he could catch up with Jian Songyi and nodded and agreed: “Indeed.”

Nearby, Xu Jiaxing was listening to their conversation while excitedly rubbing his hands together. “Brother Song, do you know who Master Bai is with? Is it an Omega or a Beta? Is it a boy or a girl? Is it good-looking?”

Jian Songyi gritted his teeth and smiled: “Omega, man, looks good.”

“Hi-ya! Master Bai, you can do it!” Xu Jiaxing clapped excitedly.

When Yu Ziguo heard this, it was as if he had been hit by a hammer. He burst into tears, crying while comforting Jian Songyi simultaneously. “Brother Song, it’s alright. You will find your own partner, and there will always be someone more suitable for you than Master Bai.”

Jian Songyi decided to be angry with Bai Huai and nodded: “You’re right.”

Bai Huai gave him a glance. He seemed to express his dissatisfaction with his answer, so he stared back at him fiercely.

Bai Huai said faintly, “In fact, my boyfriend is…”

“But!” Jian Songyi immediately interrupted. “I only want to study. I do not have the energy to find a partner!”

Bai Huai is a rubbish villain, actually threatening the little squirrel.

On the other hand, Bai Huai felt that it was still not enough. He reached out his hand from under the table. He placed it on Jian Songyi’s thigh and caressed it.

Jian Songyi tried to play it casually, but he could not help but shudder for a moment. His desire for survival made him panic, and he blurted out, “And no one is more suitable for me than Bai Huai!”

Resounding and sincere.

He did not say it too loud, but the classroom became quiet.

The classroom became quieter as soon as the words fell from his mouth.

Three seconds later, Yu Ziguo wailed, “Oh, unrequited love is so miserable, my Brother Song!”

Yang Yue also gave a shocked expression: “Brother Song, you- Do you really-”

Xu Jiaxing burst into tears and sighed up at the sky: “this is the so-called suffering from the sea, except that Wushan is not a cloud.”

Bai Huai smiled softly: “I didn’t expect you to think highly of me.”

Jian Songyi suddenly regained his mind and reflected on what he had just said. He was so angry that he pressed Bai Huai’s hand on his leg and tried to break it. But then, Bai Huai’s hand had managed to wrap it around his tightly.

However, the clouds and the wind are light on their faces, as they both still have that smile plastered upon their lips. 

Jian Songyi badly wanted to pull out his hand but failed to do so. He was so angry that he tried to roll up his sleeves for a fight. As soon as he stood up, Lao Bai exclaimed, “Jian Songyi, you are back at last!”

Everyone turned their heads and looked at Jian Songyi.

Jian Songyi’s body tensed.

In everyone’s view, Jian Songyi is unable to inflict violence. Even so, underneath that face, he has to worry about the fact that he and Bai Huai are secretly holding hands underneath the desk. This idiot is being shameless again. Nonetheless, he can only sit on his chair with a nod. “Well, I am back.”

He tries his best to look highly calm as if his deskmate hasn’t been playing with his fingertips.

However, the deskmate who has been pulling these sneaky little pranks on him is calmer than he’s supposed to be. While playing with Jian Songyi’s hand, Bai Huai only looks at everyone with his serious natural face. He’s supposed to be the high achiever when underneath, he is an absolute beast.

Jian Songyi could not wait to get out of the classroom and commit the crime of murdering his own husband.

However, Lao Bai looked at the two handsome children and thought of their superior achievements. He only felt that they were as cute as cherubs.

The more he thought about it, the happier he became, showing a Maitreya-like smile: “Before class, I would like to announce two pieces of good news. The first one is that Bai Huai, a classmate in our class, lived up to expectations and achieved excellent results in this monthly exam, ranking first in the grade.”

In the warm applause, Jian Songyi laughed: “That is, while I am away, just let your monkey become the top student, cherish it. In the next honor list, it will not be you.”

Bai Huai was not angry. He just simply played with Jian Songyi’s knuckles while whispering, “We’ll have a deal. I’ll let you be the first in the final exam if you’ll do what I say.”

“Cut it out. Who cares if you’ll just let me have it.”

His right hand was comfortable with Bai Huai’s way of caressing it, so he gave up and let him play with it for the time being. Jian Songyi then holds his pen with his left hand as he writes the problem with his head down. “I don’t want it. You can’t be naughty.”

Otherwise, he will be coaxed about everything Bai Huai has done so far as of today. Even though he was the financier, he would still be the one to get bitten. Should he always be the one who gives him money and sex? That’s so frustrating.

Bai Huai chuckled: “Okay, I won’t be naughty anymore. I’ll give it to you.”

The two whispered in a shallow voice.

However, Lao Bai raised his voice from the podium: The second good news is that both Jian Songyi and Yang Yue of our class have won the first prize in the national competition training. With that being stated, as long as they pass the admission qualification examination of the university, they are automatically admitted to the institution without having to take the college entrance examination. Let’s congratulate them both!”

This time the applause and noise were even more lively.

After all, not having to take the college entrance examination is such a dream, which makes most of the students envious. 

Nonetheless, all jealousy must come to an end.

 So, with the drumming of the desk, someone started to shout, “Brother Song, Yang Yue, you have to invite guests over for dinner!”

Jian Songyi was flirting with his boyfriend when he suddenly heard his name. He suddenly felt a little guilty. Everyone looked at him like a slaughtered sheep, making him feel more guilty. He wanted to untangle his fingers from Bai Huai, but they were tightly laced together. So for fear of being seen, he could only raise his left hand twice. “Sure, sure!”

Yang Yue was also in a good mood, so he waved his hand with magnanimity: “No problem! It’s so easy to talk it over and set.”

Another burst of cheers broke out in the classroom: “Long live great Brother Song and Yang Yue, the monitor!”

Lao Bai also joined in with a smile: “Okay. Let me know when you’ve already set the time and date. I’ll also take part and have a good time. My son will take the high school entrance examination right away, and I’ll be happy.”

As long as someone treats guests, a class can be so happy.

The adult world is as simple as that.

After class, Yang Yue turned around and summed up with Jian Songyi: “This Friday is the 30th, just in time for New Year’s Day. If we were to invite everyone for a meal, I’d take care of it. I think that four tables will be enough.”

“Okay, you arrange it.” Jian Songyi really didn’t care. It’s Yang Yue anyway. He can very much handle things like this.

As the two were about to decide, Bai Huai suddenly said, “Count me in as a guest.”

Before Yang Yue asked why, Bai Huai explained lightly, “It’s a wedding banquet to celebrate our divorce.”

“…..”

“…..”

“…..”

Everyone didn’t know how to answer for a while. With mixed feelings, thousands of thoughts passed through, and they couldn’t say a word.

Only Bai Huai was highly calm as if he had done nothing to die.

Jian Songyi didn’t know what Yang Yue and the others were thinking, so he felt that Bai Huai was doing something to challenge the dignity of the head of his family. But since he was not at home, he couldn’t directly deal with him by beating him up, so he could only stand up and say coldly: “Bai Huai, come out for me.”

Yu Ziguo, who had been sad for a whole class because of CP’s love beside him, rushed over and hugged Jian Songyi: “Brother Song, don’t. Let’s calm down. You shouldn’t do this. I know that falling in love with someone who doesn’t love you is excruciating, but we must also learn to bless them! Don’t hate because of love!”

Yang Yue also hurriedly advised: “Yes. Master Bai, you should also accept it too. We understand that you want to showcase your affection, but you should also consider Brother Song’s feelings too. Don’t rub it on his face too much.”

Even Xu Jiaxing, who is a fool, began to stir up the water: “But Brother Song, you can’t blame Master Bai. Having an Alpha-to-Alpha relationship won’t do any good for the two of you. If you can’t be lovers, then you can always be friends. You dare not bring his boyfriend for us to meet.”

Jian Songyi: ?

Jian Songyi felt that there was no normal person in this world. 

“Don’t worry. We won’t fight. We are fine.” Jian Songyi took a deep breath and said calmly.

Then he followed him outside with his head bowed while his fingers fiddled against his cell phone. 

One by one, the two were more expressionless than the other, and the aura along the way made onlookers curious and frightened, but they didn’t have the courage to keep up.

They walked all the way to the rooftop.

Bai Huai was the one who opened the door. And as he was just about to turn around, Jian Songyi pressed him quickly against the corner.

Jian Songyi tugged at his collar as he clenched his teeth. “What did you say?” 

Bai Huai looked down at him with a clear conscience: “I really didn’t tell anyone that we were together.”

Jian Songyi: “…..”

Not yet.

“Then why did you take a picture of the teeth marks?”

“Did I say that it was yours? I only said that I was already stamped. I just want to let people know that I was already taken care of. I don’t want them to miss out and not know that might lead you to unhappiness and jealousy when someone tries to hit on me.”

“…..”

“I just want to let people know that I have a boyfriend, and I like him very much.”

“…..”

“In fact, I don’t want to go to public places now. You’re too thin-skinned that I am afraid you’ll get too overly embarrassed. It’s just that I was so happy that I finally got you. I could not help it for a while. I won’t be like this anymore, so don’t be angry, okay?” Bai Huai said as he helped Jian Songyi to manage his scarf and tuck it in tighter.

His eyes and tone are so gentle that they affect the distressed Jian Songyi.

A thousand-year-old paramecium encounters a ten-thousand-year-old fox with no combat effectiveness to speak of.

Jian Songyi originally intended to teach animals to be human beings again. Still, for some reason, he suddenly stopped being angry. Not only did he stop being angry, but he also felt a little guilty. Bai Huai was so gentle, but he was so fierce against him.

Jian Songyi: “I am not mad.”

“Are you really not angry?”

“Really.”

Bai Huai squinted at him. He looked at the guilty liar and smiled: “Then why did you call me to the rooftop? If not to hit me?”

“…..”

To beat you up, you fool.

But Jian Songyi changed his mind.

Jian Songyi tugged Bai Huai’s collar down: “Your boyfriend wants to bring you to the rooftop to get in the first love of the day earlier, can he not?”

Bai Huai narrowed his eyes at him, but he couldn’t help but smile. “What is my boyfriend trying to tell me? I have never been in love. I have no experience. I do not understand.” He said playfully to tease Jian Songyi.

 Jian Songyi dragged Bai Huai’s collar down, his ears were red, and he had to pretend to be sophisticated: “That is to find a place where there is no one and force you to buy a little rose.”

With that, he tilted his face and started leaning in.

The distance in between is starting to get shorter when-

Bang!

The rooftop door was pushed open.

“Jian Songyi, Bai Huai! I finally found you!”
