Chapter 73: You are so good, so please say yes? (The End)

Translator: DragonRider

Rong Yi felt that all bones in his body fell apart, and the whole body was only held together by the skin.

He was sore all over and couldn’t use strength at all. He could only lay on the bed, as flat as a piece of cake.

Somehow, Chen Keyao, who had just had transfusion yesterday was full of energy. This was really unfair. When they made love, it was Chen Keyao who needed to exert more physical strength.

However, Rong Yi secretly recalled that wonderful body which he finally saw and touched and then he felt relieved.

It really made big difference whether people had the habit of working out. In comparison, Rong Yi, though pretty tall, was simply too weak.

However, originally Rong Yi had secretly planned to buy some white wine in preparation, which seemed no longer necessary.

When he was thinking at random, Chen Keyao picked up that stack of messy paper from the bedside, started to roll it up and intended to throw it into the trash bin.

Rong Yi was greatly shocked, and rushed to fight with Chen Keyao regardless of his physical discomfort.

“What are you doing! I haven’t read it yet!”

“Don’t read it. There is really nothing worth reading.” Chen Keyao’s face was thoroughly red. “Spare me.”

“This is for me! There is my name on the envelope, so it is mine!” Rong Yi shouted, “Give it to back to me!”

“It has been creased like this.” Chen Keyao still kept dodging. “Not readable.”

Finally, Rong Yi couldn’t support himself. After chasing Chen Keyao for two steps, his legs became unbearably limp and that place of his even felt an unspeakable sense of pulling. Then, suddenly his steps began to shake.

Seeing this, Chen Keyao quickly reached out and helped him. Rong Yi took the opportunity to grab that ball of paper.

“As you like.” Chen Keyao wiped his face. “If you want to read, just read…I…I will make you something to eat. You can sleep for a little longer.”

He was obviously trying to avoid this embarrassing moment.

Rong Yi was not reluctant, and after being carried back to the bed, he carefully tried to restore the smoothness of that paper.

Halfway through his effort, his phone vibrated. The message was sent by Zhou Li who hadn’t contacted Rong Yi in the past few days.

“Have you told Liu Yuan that we are not a couple?”

Rong Yi was stunned and then suddenly became excited.

He replied in haste.

“I haven’t. But he must know my relationship with Chen Keyao. Maybe Chen Keyao told him.”

Zhou Li sent an emoji that was touching its forehead and crying.

“He is so annoying! I can’t stand it!”

Rong Yi suddenly stiffened. It was all over. He had told Liu Yuan not to rush. Why didn’t he listen?

Now that his own love was smooth and successful and his sense of happiness overflew, he really desired to be a matchmaker between Liu Yuan and Zhou Li and helped build up their relationship.

“What happened?” he asked.

Zhou Li replied at once.

“Are you free now? Is it convenient to call you?”

Right at this point, the door was opened. Chen Keyao sneaked in half a body. “There is still the porridge you made yesterday in the kitchen! I can reheat it and then we can have that. Do you want anything else?”

Rong Yi thought for a moment. “I want to have a quiche.”

Chen Keyao gestured OK to him and then went away humming.

Just when Rong Yi lowered his head, his phone rang again.

“Ah, ah, ah, ah. There he is again, I am going crazy!”

After that, Zhou Li also sent a screenshot of their chat.

The last part was as follows in order:

“I am going to take a shower.”

“Okay~ Be careful not to catch cold~”

“Are you done with your bath? It is late. Go to bed early~”

“Good night~”

“Good morning~”

“What a lovely day. Do you want to go out and have a walk?”

Rong Yi glanced over it and was silent.

Liu Yuan was trying too hard, enough to move people to cry.

Zhou Li sent another message.

“My head hurts…”

Rong Yi felt he could understand Zhou Li a little bit. Liu Yuan was beyond salvation.

When Liu Yuan was relatively normal, Rong Yi could actually feel that Zhou Li was very fond of him. After all, although this person was a little stupid, he was still cheerful and bright and treated his friends with sincerity and enthusiasm. In addition, he looked pretty. In a word, he was quite lovable.

He called Zhou Li who sounded especially distressed.

“In fact, if it were another person, I would have already blocked him long before.” Zhou Li mourned. “But as for him, I am really guilty to do that. After all, I owe him such a big favor. What is wrong with this person? It all went on so well before.”

“Because he likes you!” Rong Yi thought.

Rong Yi didn’t know how to comfort Zhou Li, either. He thought about it and said, “You have never been in a relationship, have you?”

“…Anything wrong with that?” Zhou Li sounded subtle.

“So it’s not easy for you to understand his current feelings,” Rong Yi said with a sigh. “I think he is quite nice… You also thought he was pretty interesting before?”

“But now, he is like this, not interesting at all.” Zhou Li muttered.

Rong Yi was in a plight.

Liu Yuan was too miserable. The person he liked didn’t quite understand what it was to like someone.

This kind of thing couldn’t be forced after all. And Rong Yi didn’t dare to persuade Zhou Li strongly. “If you really don’t like him and hate him, you had better tell him directly.”

Zhou Li was quiet for a while: “…not hate.”

Rong Yi frowned. “Then what do you want?”

“We used to get along very well,” Zhou Li said. “Like ordinary friends, we talk, eat and watch movies together, hang out and have fun on weekends…”

“…” Rong Yi doubted, “Ordinary friends?”

“Yeah. But he is like this now. I have nothing to say to him at all.”

“…”

Rong Yi was speechless.

“What could I do?” asked Zhou Li.

“Don’t know,” said Rong Yi. “My hubby went out to buy me food and is now back. You think about it yourself.”

Just after Rong Yi said goodbye to Zhou Li and hung up, Chen Keyao pushed the door open and walked in. The shop selling quiches was just at the entrance of the community, and it didn’t take much time to buy the food.

After Chen Keyao came in, he first glanced at the paper ball on the edge of the bed and then heaved a sigh of relief after confirming that it hadn’t been read.

“Hey, have you mentioned something about us to Liu Yuan?” asked Rong Yi.

Different from Zhou Li, Liu Yuan obviously was not the type of people who would pay attention to gossips of popular stars. So it was very likely that he knew nothing about that sensational affair concerning them a while ago.

Hearing Rong Yi’s question, Chen Keyao immediately laughed: “I didn’t say a lot… though I did tell him.”

After he said that, he went to the bedside and handed the quiche to Rong Yi. “Oh, right. Do you know that he seems to be in a relationship with Zhou Li now?”

“…”

Rong Yi vaguely felt there must be some misunderstanding in this.

He took over the quiche and was about to get out of bed, but was stopped by Chen Keyao.

“It’s okay. You can eat here,” he said. “These sheets must be washed anyway.”

“…”

“Hurry and eat.” Chen Keyao stood up. “I will get you a glass of water.”

Looking at Chen Keyao’s back, Rong Yi sighed silently. “What can I do? He won’t feel it even if I am angry.”

Just when Rong Yi was thinking, Chen Keyao came back with a glass of water.

“Well…” He pointed at the ring on Rong Yi’s finger. “Could you take it off for the moment?”

Rong Yi was stunned.

Just after he had convinced himself to tolerate this fool, what did he want again?

“No,” Rong Yi said, putting his hand behind him. “This is already mine!”

Chen Keyao raised his hand and grabbed his hair, looking extremely embarrassed. “No… Don’t you think it’s a bit…”

“You are not regretting it, are you?!” Rong Yi glared at him.

“No,” Chen Keyao got into a flap. “I bought it, but I didn’t have the chance to put it on your finger by myself. This is not right. Can’t you let me enjoy this process?!”

“…” Rong Yi silently took off the ring and placed it in Chen Keyao’s hand, “Here.”

In fact, this scene at this moment was not very romantic. Rong Yi’s other hand was even holding the quiche of which he had just one bite.

Chen Keyao blushed a little. He said he attached great importance to this process. However, after he actually took Rong Yi’s hand, he began to digress obviously.

“I have a friend who gave me a lot of encouragement when I wanted to court you but didn’t have the courage to.” He lowered his head and carefully put the ring on Rong Yi’s ring finger. “I am very grateful to him. When we hold our wedding ceremony, I want to invite him to witness it.”

Rong Yi looked down at his finger. “…Oh, okay. He must come.”

After Chen Keyao put the ring on Rong Yi’s finger, he looked up at him and smirked.

Rong Yi also laughed.

Rong Yi intended to tell him on the day he received the invitation: “Don’t worry, I will definitely attend your wedding ceremony, and I will also give you a surprise.”

He felt that the atmosphere at this moment was especially sweet, and if it were not because he had just eaten the quiche and his mouth were full of grease, it would be the best occasion to kiss. Rong Yi secretly looked around, trying to find a piece of tissue to wipe his mouth so that he could at least kiss Chen Keyao’s cheek.

Half a second after he fantasized, he saw Chen Keyao suddenly jump up, grab that paper ball on the edge of the bed, and run away while laughing loudly.

Rong Yi was left there, stunned and completely bewildered.

“What? Is he a fool? Why is he so naïve? Is he drunk again?”

He was marked by a fool!

Rong Yi was extremely speechless, sighed and glanced at the place where the paper ball had been, discovering that this guy had forgotten something in a hurry. Just now, Rong Yi did his best and unfolded one piece of that paper ball which Chen Keyao didn’t notice when he took that ball away.

Rong Yi took up that only remaining piece of crumpled paper.

.

“Actually, I don’t just want to eat small wontons you make. I like everything you make. Or, when you don’t want to cook, we can order takeaways. If it is necessary later, I can also learn to cook. You can teach me, and then I will cook for you. It may not be good, but I could wash dishes especially clean.

I just want to eat at the same table with you every day.

By every day, I mean today, tomorrow, next month, ten years later, until we both become grandfathers.

Every day, you sit across from me and we can see each other as soon as we look up. I will listen to you talk and watch you laugh and the meal will taste especially good.

Or, you can talk about what depresses you and you can also lose your temper in front of me. I am not very good at comforting people, but I will always listen to you. If you encounter someone or something nasty, I can curse with you.

Or, you can even curse me while I will try not to retort.

So, would you like to sit down to eat with me every day from now on?

I promise to be always obedient and tractable. Besides washing dishes clean, I can also clean up the table.

You are so good, so please say yes?”
