Chapter 60: Bonus Chapter (60)
The friendly match wasn’t long.
The team members only had to play one game.
As soon as Zhou Geng came off the court, he headed straight for the spectator seats.
Sweat on his forehead dripped down his jawline. He wiped it casually and panted, saying,
“You guys go to the lounge and wait for me a bit. Once I finish showering, we’ll go eat together.”
Yesterday, Zhou Geng had already greeted Shen Tangqing in advance.
Dinner together after playing ball.
Although Shen Tangqing didn’t like Lin Mu, he wouldn’t go back on what he promised.
After all, he would still give face to Zhou Geng.
—
After Zhou Geng went to shower,
Lin Mu looked at Shen Tangqing sitting on the chair, gritted his back teeth, suddenly stood up, and walked in front of him.
“Shen Tangqing, I want to talk to you alone.”
Thinking of what he was about to do, Lin Mu’s fingertips quietly tightened on the straps of his backpack.
Shen Tangqing looked up, his tone very cold.
“I shouldn’t have anything to talk about with you.”
Lin Mu’s breath hitched, his expression ugly for a moment.
Growing up so big, no one had dared to give him attitude like this.
But meeting Shen Tangqing’s emotionless face, the anger just sprouting in his heart vanished without a trace instantly.
Only felt somewhat wronged.
He took a deep breath, looking at Shen Tangqing and speaking again.
“Just five minutes is fine. I have no malicious intent towards you.”
Shen Tangqing frowned somewhat impatiently.
Lin Mu stood in front of him, looking quite like a rogue who wouldn’t leave unless he agreed.
After a moment of silence,
Shen Tangqing stood up.
“Lead the way.”
Originally full of grievance, hearing Shen Tangqing’s words, Lin Mu was instantly happy.
The corner of his mouth couldn’t help lifting upward but was quickly suppressed by him.
—
The fire escape stairs next to the changing room basically had no visitors.
Shen Tangqing leaned against the cold handrail, arms crossed over his chest.
His gaze swept over Lin Mu’s tense profile, his tone careless.
“Speak. What exactly do you want to say to me?”
Lin Mu’s hand holding the backpack tightened.
His gaze fell on Shen Tangqing’s indifferent brows and eyes.
His heartbeat soared instantly at this moment.
His Adam’s apple rolled. After swallowing a gulp of saliva with a “gulu” sound, he opened the backpack.
He took out a document from inside.
Shen Tangqing looked confused.
Didn’t know what medicine was sold in Lin Mu’s gourd!
Lin Mu’s hand holding the document was a bit tight, so much so that his knuckles turned slightly white.
After taking a deep breath, he spoke stammeringly.
“Shen Tangqing, I’m 20 years old this year, only son in the family, assets roughly forty to fifty billion, haven’t liquidated specifically, height 1.85 meters, never been in a relationship…”
After finishing, a strange thin blush appeared on Lin Mu’s face.
“21—”
“By the way, I also have eight-pack abs, body is also very good…”
As his voice fell, he handed the document in his hand to Shen Tangqing.
“Inside are all my detailed information, including which kindergarten I attended at age three, all written in detail…”
Shen Tangqing’s head was full of question marks.
What is this bro saying these things for?
Showing off he’s rich?
Showing off he’s taller than me?
Wait…
What the hell is 21?
And mocking me for not having eight-pack abs?
Shen Tangqing’s face instantly sank.
This presumptuous guy was really presumptuous!
“Did you call me out specially just to show off to me?”
Lin Mu: “…”
Not right.
Why is it different from expected?
Didn’t netizens say chasing men with direct balls (being straightforward) is more likely to succeed?
Lin Mu had never been in a relationship, let alone courted anyone.
From childhood to adulthood, it was always others chasing him. When had he ever chased anyone? And chasing a man at that…
This truly exceeded the scope of his cognition.
Where was the problem?
His brain spun crazily.
Suddenly thought he hadn’t given the card to Shen Tangqing yet.
Hurriedly took out a bank card from the bag and handed it to Shen Tangqing, explaining,
“Not showing off… Shen Tangqing, there’s ten million in this card. Although not much, I’ll give all my pocket money to you in the future. I’ll just keep living expenses for myself…”
The corner of Shen Tangqing’s mouth twitched violently.
His mind was full of what exactly is this idiot saying?
“Why are you giving me money?”
Lin Mu pursed his lips.
Too nervous and excited, his hands holding the document and card trembled slightly.
Even his voice carried a tremor.
“Shen Tangqing, I like you. Can you be my boyfriend?”
Shen Tangqing: ?
!
Chapter 61: The Cannon Fodder in a Dogblood Novel (61)
Shi Jingnian just confessed to him not even three days ago, and now another one?
Did he look very much like a gay man?
At this moment, Shen Tangqing doubted himself for an instant.
But only for an instant.
The next second, he spat in his heart.
A bunch of blind things. I’m so manly, how could I be gay!
Shen Tangqing lowered his arms originally crossed over his chest.
He didn’t take the things Lin Mu handed over. Instead, he lifted his eyelids to look at him coldly.
An extremely light laugh overflowed from his throat, but that smile didn’t reach the bottom of his eyes at all. Instead, it was wrapped in a bit of mockery.
“Lin Mu, you like me?”
Lin Mu’s hand holding the document trembled. His heart hung high because of Shen Tangqing’s words, and his Adam’s apple rolled for a moment.
“Yes, I like you, I…”
Before he could finish, he was coldly interrupted by Shen Tangqing.
“Pity, I only like women. You might as well go to Thailand and come back, then we can talk.”
After speaking, he paused for two seconds and added another stab.
“Can you gays figure out the other person’s sexual orientation before confessing? It’s really presumptuous, you know?”
Lin Mu’s hand gripping the document suddenly tightened, crinkling the pages.
His originally flushed face turned pale because of Shen Tangqing’s words. His nose suddenly soured, and his eyes reddened instantly.
Growing up so big, he had always been held up by others. When had he ever suffered such grievance?
He himself didn’t know how he inexplicably bent.
Before…
Before meeting Shen Tangqing, he was clearly straight!
He mustered up so much courage to dare take this step, bringing out everything he could.
He was even prepared to be beaten by his dad for coming out.
Resulting only in Shen Tangqing’s cold eyes and disgust.
…
A belly full of words was blocked in his throat, leaving only a heart full of grievance, discomfort, and helplessness.
After a few seconds, as if throwing caution to the wind, Lin Mu suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Shen Tangqing’s wrist, pressing him against the handrail of the stairwell, his voice trembling.
“I know… I just… I just like you…”
As soon as the words fell, his brain heated up, and he actually leaned in wanting to kiss Shen Tangqing.
Everything happened in a flash.
Shen Tangqing hadn’t expected this idiot Lin Mu to be so audacious as to dare force a kiss on him…
Fortunately, his eyes and hands were quick.
He pushed Lin Mu away violently and slapped him in passing.
With a “Pa—” sound,
Directly slapping Lin Mu into confusion.
“Stinking idiot, are you f*cking crazy?”
Shen Tangqing was so angry his temples throbbed, cursing loudly, “I’ll f*cking beat you to death, you damn pervert!”
Lin Mu stood still.
Letting Shen Tangqing’s fists fall on his body.
To him, the pain in his heart far exceeded the physical pain…
Until Shen Tangqing got tired of hitting and stopped.
Lin Mu’s bent body slowly straightened up.
The documents and card in his hand had long fallen to the ground.
Clutching his stomach, he looked at Shen Tangqing as if his heart had turned to dead ash.
Muttering to himself, “I just like you, that’s all…”
What wrong did he do? He just liked Shen Tangqing.
Shen Tangqing: “…”
Did I hit too lightly and didn’t wake him up?
“I’m a f*cking man. What do I need you to like me for? Aren’t you disgusting? You…”
Before finishing, Shen Tangqing froze in place.
He saw Lin Mu crying…
This Eldest Young Master who had been arrogant since their first meeting, always lifting his chin slightly when looking at people, exuding arrogance all over, actually cried…
He cried just like everyone else. Red-rimmed eyes, tears falling one by one down his cheeks like broken beads, smashing onto his clothes and spreading into wet marks.
Only because his face was good-looking, crying didn’t look messy but instead revealed a few degrees of hard-to-hide brokenness and pitifulness.
Where had Shen Tangqing seen this kind of battle array!
Instantly panicked, his tone softened a fraction.
“Wk (Wocao/F*ck), you… what are you crying for…”
Lin Mu sensed his loss of composure and simply smashed the pot (gave up/let go completely).
He had never been this wronged in his life.
Sniffling, ignoring the tears on his face, he plunged headfirst into Shen Tangqing’s arms, hugging him tightly.
“Not disgusting. What’s disgusting about me liking you? I was originally straight. It’s all you… It’s all you who bent me!”
He rubbed against Shen Tangqing’s shoulder and spoke righteously, “I don’t care, you have to take responsibility for me!”
Shen Tangqing hadn’t expected this dog thing Lin Mu to dare come up and hug him.
But he cried too miserably.
Shen Tangqing froze in place for a moment.
Until—
Blue veins throbbed on Shen Tangqing’s forehead… his face turned black.
“Did you f*cking wipe snot on my clothes?” His tone was somewhat gnashing teeth.
Lin Mu’s arms hugging Shen Tangqing stiffened for a moment, immediately denying, “No, I didn’t.”
Only the guilt in his tone betrayed him.
Shen Tangqing didn’t care if he did or not. Daring to hug him without getting beaten was already him having a good temper.
If it were someone else, he would have beaten them into the hospital long ago.
I’m still too kind!
…
“What are… you guys doing?” Zhou Geng’s voice, carrying a chill, suddenly came from behind.
Both were startled simultaneously.
Shen Tangqing subconsciously pushed Lin Mu away.
Lin Mu stumbled and fell to the ground.
The air solidified for an instant.
The next second,
Lin Mu lifted his tear-stained face, looked at Shen Tangqing, and accused tearfully, “You actually pushed me!”
Shen Tangqing: “…”
No, brother.
Why does he feel like he became the heartless lover? Clearly, he was the “victim.”
Looking at Lin Mu sitting on the ground, the corner of Shen Tangqing’s mouth couldn’t help twitching.
“Do you want to get up first?”
“I won’t get up unless you pull me!” Tears still hung on Lin Mu’s eyelashes, looking as if he had suffered a massive grievance.
Shen Tangqing: “…”
Really want to beat this idiot to death!
Zhou Geng stood in place somewhat bewildered, completely not knowing what play this was. But the scene of the two hugging just now made him feel incredibly piercing to the eyes.
After a moment of silence, he stepped forward and pulled Lin Mu up.
“What exactly is going on?”
Shen Tangqing couldn’t say it.
After all, being liked by a man wasn’t a glorious thing.
Lin Mu was fearless.
Since deciding to confess to Shen Tangqing, he never thought of hiding it. Liking Shen Tangqing wasn’t a shameful thing!
After wiping his face, he spoke, “I confessed to Shen Tangqing and got beaten by him.”
After speaking, he glanced resentfully at Zhou Geng. “If you hadn’t come, I could have hugged him for a few more minutes…”
“You confessed to Tang Tang?” Zhou Geng’s pupils contracted sharply, even his voice rose a few notches, face full of disbelief.
“Yeah, I like him. Want him to be my boyfriend.”
Shen Tangqing: “…”
“Lin Mu, can you have some dignity?” Shen Tangqing was just short of pointing at Lin Mu’s nose and cursing.
“I f*cking said eight hundred times I like women. Can’t understand human language or deliberately playing dumb?”
“What do I need dignity for? I only want you.” He curled his lip. “You can also treat me as a woman…”
Shen Tangqing: “… Speechless!”
