CHAPTER 10
Chapter 10: Your Hobbies Are Quite Unique
“Alright, go find him quickly.”
Seeing his genuine shyness, Song Jin stopped teasing him.
“Hehe…”
Chen Jiamu chuckled, turning and heading for the third floor without looking back. Before leaving, he didn’t forget to glance at Li Ru, who was sitting silently beside them.
With handsome features, the passage of time had added a refined and elegant air to him. His slender eyes gazed deeply at Song Jin, as if they were truly deeply in love.
However, if he didn’t know about his infidelity in his youth, Chen Jiamu would have truly believed him to be a good man…
To cover up his affair, he told everyone that Li Qi had been living abroad due to poor health.
Now that he’s returned to China, his identity has been made public…
Fifteen years ago, Song Jin had indeed gone abroad for a while, and everyone tacitly assumed that Li Qi was Song Jin’s child born overseas.
Li Ru also had his affair in the year Song Jin went abroad…
Now, three years after Li Qi returned to the Li family, everyone has stopped paying excessive attention to his identity.
Chen Cheng told him all this. He and Chen Cheng are both quite gossipy, so they inevitably dig deep into things.
“This child…”
His mother’s voice came from behind, but Chen Jiamu didn’t pay much attention.
He walked straight to the third floor without stopping. At this time, Li Qi had just changed his clothes. Hearing footsteps outside the door, he thought it might be Song Jin sending someone to call him downstairs.
But as soon as he opened the door, he saw an unexpected face…
He rubbed his eyes, thinking he was hallucinating from being caught in the rain. He closed the door and opened it again.
After confirming it wasn’t a hallucination, Li Qi narrowed his eyes and stared intently at him.
“How did you get here?”
Li Qi was wearing a simple white T-shirt, his hair wet and clinging to his forehead. This was the second time Chen Jiamu had seen him without his glasses.
Due to his nearsightedness, Li Qi unconsciously narrowed his eyes, giving off a slightly hazy and aloof aura.
Both of these qualities appearing simultaneously on Li Qi, Chen Jiamu found himself strangely attracted…
“I…”
Seeing him stammer, Li Qi frowned, turned around, put on his glasses, and resumed his usual cold demeanor.
As if waking from a dream, Chen Jiamu cleared his throat, leaning lazily against the doorframe, “My parents are chatting with your family downstairs, and I came to see you on my way.”
“I don’t have anything here to entertain you.”
Li Qi coldly rejected his advances, but Chen Jiamu didn’t mind, smirking and taking out a game controller he had brought from home. “I do!”
“Come on, let’s play in your room.”
“Let me tell you, this is a rare item my buddy brought back from abroad. He said this game is way better than the ones we have domestically.”
“No!”
Li Qi instinctively refused at the mention of entering his room, but Chen Jiamu slipped past him under his arm.
Seeing the layout of his room, Chen Jiamu immediately frowned, “A young man like you shouldn’t like such dull colors.”
Li Qi’s room was uniformly dark gray, except for the brown wooden desk; everything else that could be gray was gray.
Looking at the gray sofa beneath him, Chen Jiamu frowned again and again.
“If you ask me, this sofa should be white, it would look so much brighter. And this lamp, change it to white too.”
“Not to mention, those black cups are so inauspicious…”
As he listened to his rambling, Li Qi’s temples throbbed relentlessly. Unable to bear it any longer, he growled, “If you say one more word, I’ll throw you off the balcony!”
Chen Jiamu turned to look at the half-open balcony glass door. Outside, the wind howled, and rain lashed against the windows…
“Hmm, gray is pretty good too, it’s dirt-resistant!”
A wise man knows when to back down. Chen Jiamu wisely shut his mouth and placed his game console on the coffee table.
This game console was a gift from a friend, who claimed it was a treasure brought back from abroad.
He also said it would make him love it endlessly…
It’s just a game console, what’s so special about it? Thinking that it didn’t matter anyway, he brought it to play with Li Qi.
Maybe it could help him get closer to him…
“Don’t just stand there, come and play.”
“By the way, do you have a computer? This needs to be plugged into a computer to play.”
He didn’t want to bring too much, so he only brought a controller and a connector.
Li Qi stood aside, speechless. To avoid being bothered, he had to get his computer.
Li Qi’s computer was very clean, with only necessary software and nothing else.
Chen Jiamu fiddled with the computer for a while. When he saw the connection successful, he happily pulled Li Qi to sit down.
“Let me tell you, my friend brought me this game console; I haven’t even played it myself!”
“Come on, let’s sit down and play together.”
Chen Jiamu placed a controller in his hand. The moment their hands touched, Chen Jiamu felt his palm was ice cold.
Icy cold, without a trace of warmth…
Looking back at the half-open glass door, he thought for a moment, then got up, walked over, and closed the door tightly.
“It’s drafty; it’s cold.”
Li Qi looked at his own short sleeves, then at Chen Jiamu’s gray and white jacket.
How weak was he?
Seeing that the computer was still showing data loading, Chen Jiamu suddenly noticed something wrong.
He had never experienced this before when playing game consoles. Why did this one need to load data?
90%… 100%…
When the progress bar reached one hundred percent, a black screen popped up.
Immediately afterward, a series of explicit dynamic images appeared on the screen. In an instant, Chen Jiamu’s eyes widened!
Quickly, he slapped the computer shut, his face flushed crimson, his ears red enough to bleed…
“I…”
“You…”
“It’s not what you think, I… I didn’t know this was…”
When people panic, they tend to fumble. The computer was closed, but it clamped down on half of the controller. He frantically tried to pull it apart, but accidentally pressed a button.
And so…
A heart-pounding female voice, accompanied by a man’s rough breathing, came from the not-quite-closed computer…
“Ah!”
Chen Jiamu pushed the computer away in fright, the controller flying off as well. The sound from the computer finally stopped.
“I…”
Chen Jiamu was too embarrassed to speak for a long time, his hands raised above his head, his face full of innocence.
On the other hand, Li Qi showed no expression on his face, still his usual calm self. But if you looked closely, you could see his ears, hidden beneath his hair, were bright red…
“Your… hobbies are quite unique, aren’t they?”
