Chapter 125: Do You Really Like Women?
“I don’t know. I only like you.”
It wasn’t that he liked men and therefore liked him; it was that he liked him, this specific person.
Ye Jingxian gazed at him. “I just like Qingyue. I like you, Xiao Shidi, as a person. It has nothing to do with anything else.”
Lin Qingyue felt that either the world had gone mad, or he had stumbled into some kind of illusion. Otherwise, how could he possibly hear Ye Jingxian say he liked him?
“Da Shixiong, you’re not… joking, are you?”
By the end of his sentence, he was somewhat uncertain. His voice grew smaller, still finding the situation absurd.
“Da Shixiong, do you know what ‘like’ means? Could you be mistaken?”
Lin Qingyue asked in disbelief, feeling that the other party surely didn’t understand romance and had mistaken brotherhood for romantic affection.
He looked at Ye Jingxian with hopeful eyes, expecting him to say he might have been mistaken.
Ye Jingxian watched him shift from disbelief to evasion, making excuses for him. The gaze locked onto Lin Qingyue didn’t waver. “Xiao Shidi, I know my own feelings. Like is like. I see it very clearly.”
With his brain crashing, Lin Qingyue took a long time to recover, yet still found it too magical.
The sect’s Da Shixiong, Ye Jingxian, liked men—and liked him.
“It must be a mistake. Once Da Shixiong sees different kinds of women, you’ll know what ‘like’ really is.”
Lin Qingyue spoke without thinking, holding onto a sliver of hope in his heart.
“Xiao Shidi hates men liking men? Do you feel disgusted by it?” Ye Jingxian asked.
He shook his head, not entangled over this question. “Whether one likes men or women is their own freedom. It has nothing to do with me.”
“Xiao Shidi isn’t disgusted, so is my liking for men something Xiao Shidi just cannot accept?” Ye Jingxian looked somewhat hurt.
“Of course I can accept it.”
After saying this, Lin Qingyue realized he had been talked into a corner. “I mean… Da Shixiong.” Could you have gotten it wrong?
He couldn’t finish the sentence; he simply couldn’t continue.
“Da Shixiong, thank you for your affection, but I like women. I don’t like men.”
Lin Qingyue’s brain finally cleared, and he snapped back to reality. Ye Jingxian liking men was shocking enough, but liking him was earth-shattering news.
But he was a straight man!
Lin Qingyue looked at him. “Da Shixiong, Shidi likes women.”
“If there’s nothing else, it’s getting late. I should sleep.”
He turned to leave immediately after speaking but suddenly paused in his steps, looking back. “Has Da Shixiong finished what he wanted to say?”
Ye Jingxian didn’t speak. Lin Qingyue said to him, “Since Da Shixiong has finished, the first request can be considered fulfilled.”
Seeing him about to leave, Ye Jingxian called out to him. “Xiao Shidi.”
“Every word I said is true. I just wanted to tell you my feelings. And also to give myself a chance to like you. Could you… please not hate me?”
Lin Qingyue didn’t answer. His footsteps were somewhat chaotic. He was bewildered himself—how did things turn out like this?
Back in his room, Lin Qingyue still hadn’t recovered from the shock.
“Ye Jingxian likes men.”
Not only did he like men, he liked him.
Unable to articulate the feelings in his heart, Lin Qingyue paced back and forth in his room, still finding it too shocking. Recalling his previous interactions with Ye Jingxian, the more he thought, the more chaotic his mind became.
When Yu Qianqian received his message and saw Lin Qingyue, she was also startled. He had a face full of sorrow and confusion.
“Lin Qingyue, what’s wrong with you?” she asked in surprise.
Lin Qingyue’s eyes drooped as he asked, “You said today that you have someone you like. Who is it that you like, and why do you feel you like him?”
His emphasis was on the last sentence.
Yu Qianqian was confused by the question, then thought of something and looked a bit shy. “You know the person I like. I think Yuan An has a lot of charm, and he’s a Saber Cultivator like me.”
Speaking of this, she thought of something unknown, appearing shy and timid, the corners of her mouth rising. “Anyway, like is like; there’s no specific reason. I plan to leave the sect to find that whatever fiancé to break the engagement, and then go find Yuan An to tell him I like him.”
“And then?”
Yu Qianqian: “And then what?”
“If he doesn’t like you, or if he has someone he likes, what will you do?” Lin Qingyue asked.
Yu Qianqian really hadn’t thought about that. She frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and said, “I like him. If he has a family, I’ll give up. If he just has someone he likes, or doesn’t like me, then I’ll make him like me.”
“Lin Qingyue, do you want to leave the sect with me?”
She was very happy that someone might accompany her out of the sect and wanted to ask if Lin Qingyue was really going. But she saw him looking distracted, completely out of it.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Lin Qingyue, who hadn’t really listened to her, looked at her and asked, “Let’s say—I’m speaking hypothetically—suppose someone you never expected said they liked you. What would you do? And that person is the same gender as you.”
Not knowing how the topic jumped to this, Yu Qianqian thought about it seriously, resting her small hand on her chin. Suddenly, she said to Lin Qingyue, “Wait, someone doesn’t happen to like you, do they?”
“Who is this person? Is it a Shixiong or a Shidi?”
“No one!” Lin Qingyue said loudly. “I said hypothetically. Suppose a woman likes you, what would you do?”
“Why should I do anything? If she likes me, she likes me,” Yu Qianqian said. “I’m such a cute, good-looking, and powerful Saber Cultivator. Isn’t it normal for someone to like me?”
She didn’t believe Lin Qingyue’s words at all. “No one” my foot; there definitely was someone. She leaned close to him, unable to suppress her curiosity. “Who likes you?”
Lin Qingyue: “…”
“I don’t believe you,” she said.
“What’s there not to say? What’s so strange about someone liking you? You’re really good-looking and have such good talent; isn’t it normal? Among the Shixiong and Shijie of the sect, who isn’t liked by a few people because they are good-looking and powerful?”
Lin Qingyue was agitated. “I like women. He’s a man and says he likes me. I only treat him as…”
He stopped mid-sentence. “Anyway, I…”
Lin Qingyue didn’t know what to say. He simply shut his mouth, his brow furrowed tight, unable to stop his distress.
Seeing him like this, Yu Qianqian was curious. “Do you not like him?”
This question stunned Lin Qingyue for a moment. He didn’t answer, only saying, “I like women.”
“So you don’t like him, and even detest him.”
“He just likes me; why should I detest him?” Lin Qingyue said.
“Oh.” Yu Qianqian came to a realization. “Then you do like him.”
“I don’t,” Lin Qingyue retorted quickly. “I like women.”
Yu Qianqian suddenly leaned right in front of him. Lin Qingyue subconsciously stepped back. “Why are you getting so close?”
“Do you really like women?”
