Chapter 50: Longing, Funeral Face
The SUV he had messed around with Chen Shuo in was sent directly for maintenance by Li Ge. He had been driving a sports car for the past two days, and the space was even smaller than the Mercedes.
He was eager for pleasure, so he simply left the car in the bar’s parking lot, went around to the passenger side, opened the door, and got in, saying to Chen Shuo, “Let’s go, it’s still early, let’s go for a drive in the mountains, get some fresh air.”
“…”
Li Ge’s words were disjointed, his frivolousness instantly turning serious. Chen Shuo couldn’t keep up with his sudden leap in thinking for a moment. He glanced at his watch, it was already nine o’clock, not early anymore.
Fortunately, it was Saturday tomorrow, and he didn’t have to teach Yuan Feng. Chen Shuo could spend the whole night with Li Ge. Just as he was about to agree, he heard Li Ge say something shocking again.
“Wife, I’ll take you to get close to nature tonight.” Li Ge reclined his seat and lay down, “Let’s have a go at the top of the mountain, I guarantee it will be exciting, unforgettable for a lifetime.”
“…” Chen Shuo’s hand on the steering wheel suddenly tightened, not out of surprise, but because he remembered Li Ge had used this trick last year, taking a little lover camping in the mountains for excitement.
Then, he realized that there was no essential difference between him and the little lovers Li Ge had kept.
How Li Ge treated others was how he treated him, perhaps even the rhetoric hadn’t changed. And what Li Ge had done for him with his mouth last night was probably a new trick he had come up with on a whim. He was just the first one, because he wasn’t as easy to hook as those fools.
Li Ge’s so-called “like” was filled with lust.
If you stripped away the lust, would he still like him?
That’s right, Li Ge had said before that he had no attractive qualities, no merits, his temper was hard and violent, and he was very difficult to please.
He had been a dull and boring person since he was a child.
In this world, only Chen Meifang would tolerate him unconditionally.
The night was as dark as ink, a heavy blackness, as if a spring rain was quietly brewing.
The black Mercedes drove steadily along the main road, heading north.
Li Ge had used his brain too much during the day, busy all day, and he soon felt drowsy after lying down for a short while.
In his daze, he recalled his brief career in the music industry, the interrupted concert plans, and the works he had painstakingly polished in the recording studio, with no chance to sing them to his fans again.
“Fuck…”
Hearing the muffled curse, Chen Shuo quickly glanced at Li Ge, who seemed to be dreaming.
The car was very quiet. He concentrated on driving, and soon he heard a light and rhythmic tapping sound. He turned his head and saw Li Ge’s hand against the car door, his index finger tapping out a rhythm, not knowing if he was awake or asleep.
“Chen Shuo,” Li Ge’s mind cleared a little, and he took his hand back and asked Chen Shuo, “Do I sing well?”
Remembering the song Li Ge sang on his birthday, Chen Shuo only said “hmm” and nothing else.
“You have good taste. I also think I sing quite well. I can even fucking write songs, it’s a pity I’m not a singer.” Li Ge said narcissistically.
It was the first time he had a serious conversation with Li Ge, and Li Ge was also calling him by his name. The small flame in Chen Shuo’s heart was rekindled, but he wasn’t very good at chatting, and he was driving, so he didn’t know how to continue the conversation.
He followed up, “You can try.”
“Try what? Being in the public eye, my parents will nag me again. They just want me to go into business, and I have to go back to Jiangcheng to inherit the family business in the future.” Li Ge sighed, “Sigh, you don’t know how many years I’ve been urging them to have a second child, ever since I was a teenager and started being gay. They refused to have another one, saying that having a son like me was enough, the pressure was too great.”
Being gay as a teenager…
Chen Shuo couldn’t help but think that when he was a teenager, he was still studying hard and hadn’t even tried masturbating, while this playboy Li Ge was already sleeping with people.
Li Ge lay there leisurely, his eyes closed, not noticing Chen Shuo’s strangeness at all.
Talking about family and career made him annoyed. He remembered the reward he was going to give Chen Shuo this morning and said, “Wife, don’t drive this Mercedes anymore, I’ll get you a new car.”
“No need,” Chen Shuo refused and reminded Li Ge, “I’m not in a relationship with you where you’re keeping me.”
“Your thinking is wrong.” Li Ge corrected Chen Shuo, “I want to buy a car for my wife, how is that being kept? It’s a reward for you, you served me so well last night, and you prepared breakfast for me this morning, so considerate.”
Chen Shuo chose to remain silent, looking straight ahead and concentrating as much as possible, but Li Ge’s words seemed to confirm his guess, making his heart tremble, and he felt uncomfortable.
“Isn’t it because I feel sorry for my darling wife?” Li Ge’s sweet words came out without thinking, coaxing Chen Shuo, “Be good.”
“No need to feel sorry for me. You served me so well last night,” Chen Shuo repeated what Li Ge had said, and then said, “Breakfast is your reward.”
“…” Li Ge opened his eyes in surprise, obviously not expecting the serious robot to say such a thing, which amused him.
He teased back, “Are you a parrot? Pretender.”
Hearing Li Ge’s despicable laughter, Chen Shuo wanted to kill him. But before he left, he had already made up his mind to abstain from sex. Even if he couldn’t, he had to control the frequency, at most twice a week, he couldn’t be led by the nose by the playboy anymore.
Seeing the pretender switch to his quiet mode, Li Ge, addicted to teasing, asked Chen Shuo, “What reward are you planning to give me tonight?”
Chen Shuo pretended not to understand and ignored Li Ge.
Afraid that Chen Shuo wouldn’t understand, or would play dumb, Li Ge, with mischievous intentions, added bluntly, “It was quite delicious, I want to have a few more licks now.”
Chen Shuo: “…”
The car was driving steadily. Li Ge sat up a little and looked at the road conditions, not paying attention to the direction, his mind filled with the sexy spring scenery of Chen Shuo losing control in his mouth last night. Chen Shuo’s face was flushed, his eyes hazy, he was no longer pretentious with him, his arms holding him tightly, so clingy. This casual teasing made Li Ge have some thoughts himself, he really wanted to kiss Chen Erdi, so that the quiet one wouldn’t pretend with him anymore.
“Wife, find a secluded place and pull over.”
“…” Fearing Li Ge’s sudden perversion, Chen Shuo couldn’t ignore him, worried that Li Ge would have improper intentions towards him in the car, so he said in time, “Don’t distract me while I’m driving.”
“That’s why I’m telling you to find a secluded place.” Li Ge didn’t miss any opportunity to tease Chen Shuo, “I just smelled your fragrance, you specifically showered to pick me up, aren’t you just waiting for me to eat you?”
“…” Chen Shuo wanted to brush it off, but he felt it was necessary to talk to Li Ge, otherwise, the observation period he had set last night would really become a joke.
He stopped at a red light, finally giving himself some space to think.
Li Ge was still lying there leisurely, stretching his limbs to see if it was feasible, but it was completely impossible, so he coaxed Chen Shuo to change cars, calling him “wife” and “darling.”
The red light turned green. Chen Shuo only heard Li Ge’s chatter and couldn’t find an opportunity to talk. It wasn’t suitable to talk about this in the car, it was more important to take Li Ge home first.
He insisted on refusing, “I have a car.”
Li Ge cursed inwardly, the dog was only obedient for one night, and now he was being stubborn again, why was he so hard to coax?
So he changed his words, “Then I’ll lend it to you, okay?”
Chen Shuo still said the same thing, “I have a car.”
Li Ge: “I said I’ll lend it to you, the car is still in my name.”
Chen Shuo: “I have a car.”
“Fuck, are you a repeater?” Li Ge was tired of coaxing, his tone gradually becoming impatient, “What a stubborn temper, are you really stupid or are you pretending with me? It’s more convenient to have a larger space, I want to do it right now, do you think we can?”
“…” Chen Shuo looked at the wide road, thought for a moment, and still asked Li Ge, “Do we have to do it? I thought you really wanted to go to the mountains for some fresh air.”
“Nonsense, we can do it while enjoying the breeze, how exciting? Don’t you want to fuck me on top of the mountain? I can do it too, but I’m not in the mood today, so you do it.” Li Ge was unsatisfied at this moment and told Chen Shuo bluntly, “I have a high sex drive, I have to do it when I want to. Sometimes I get annoyed at the company and have needs, so I’m telling you to change cars, and keep lube and condoms in the car.”
It was only at this moment that Chen Shuo truly confirmed what Li Ge liked. It was absurd. It was a part of his body, but he couldn’t accept it.
This wasn’t like at all, Li Ge only had a naked lust for him.
Knowing that Yuan Feng’s course was almost over, Li Ge added, “When Yuan Feng’s course is over, you can move in with me, sleeping with you is quite nice.”
Chen Shuo suddenly asked, “Anything else?”
Li Ge didn’t understand, “What else?”
Recalling the hot kisses and passion Li Ge had given him, Chen Shuo tried to give himself a chance. After slowing down the car, he asked Li Ge again, “Besides making you sleep well, do I have any other merits?”
“Of course there are.” Li Ge never stinged with his praise for his little lovers, especially for the more special Chen Shuo, “You’re handsome and have a good physique, and most importantly, Chen Erdi is very lovable. Hurry up and find a place to let me kiss it, have a few licks, I really want to, I’m not kidding.”
Chen Shuo: “…”
If you have an idea, you have to act on it. Li Ge adjusted the seat back and sat up, looking sideways at the man in the driver’s seat. He inadvertently glanced at the hands on the steering wheel, as fair and smooth as Chen Shuo’s face, with long fingers. Thinking about where those fingers had been, the more he looked, the more he found them sexy. Chen Shuo’s whole person was sexy, he was serious when he was dressed, but when he was naked, he was a psychopath, so intense, and he didn’t like to talk, just focusing on fucking hard, it was really hard to find someone like him even with a lantern.
Li Ge thanked his discerning eye, reached out and touched the muscles under Chen Shuo’s shirt, and couldn’t help but sigh, “Look at my treasure, so lovable.”
“…” Chen Shuo’s head ached so much that he wanted to kick Li Ge out of the car, “Don’t distract me while I’m driving.”
Li Ge: “Unfortunately, he’s a repeater.”
Chen Shuo: “…”
Li Ge suddenly became curious about Chen Shuo’s past and asked, “Has anyone pursued you before?”
Chen Shuo: “Don’t distract me while I’m driving.”
Turning his head, Li Ge noticed that the direction was wrong. Where was he going, to the mountains? He was almost at his own doorstep, what was wrong with this dog?
“What’s going on,” he frowned and questioned, “I told you to drive to the winding road of the forest park, are you going against me? Or do you want to go home with me?”
Arriving at the destination, Chen Shuo pulled over and said, “If you want excitement, find someone else. I’m not interested in getting close to nature, and I’m not as casual as you.”
“…” Li Ge was briefly stunned, “Fuck, what did I do to you?”
Chen Shuo knew he was in a bad mood, but he couldn’t control it at the moment. Li Ge had been gay since he was a teenager, he didn’t know how many people he had been with, and he liked to seek excitement, he could get horny anytime, anywhere. Such a promiscuous person, if he had ever had a heart, he wouldn’t be like this now.
He lowered the window for some fresh air and said, “Indulgence hurts the body, pay attention to moderation.”
“…” Li Ge looked as if he had heard a joke, “Wait, when you were fucking me like a pile driver, why didn’t you pay attention to moderation?”
Chen Shuo said seriously, “I’m paying attention now.”
Li Ge cursed, “Fuck you, you’ve got me all hooked, and you don’t want to be responsible? This isn’t an ordinary door, once you’re in, you can’t get out, the decision is mine. If you don’t want to come in, that’s fine too, I’ll chop you up with a knife.”
“…” Chen Shuo avoided the main point, “I don’t have a grandpa.”
Li Ge: “I don’t care if you have a grandpa, I’ll go to your grandpa’s, what’s wrong?”
Chen Shuo: “Then you can go, get out of the car.”
“You’re being difficult with me after just one night, am I spoiling you too much?” Li Ge glared at Chen Shuo, warning him with his eyes, “Come home with me.”
Chen Shuo pretended to cooperate and got out of the car with Li Ge. The moment Li Ge slammed the car door shut, he quickly got back in, locked the doors, and stepped on the gas, roaring away, leaving Li Ge alone and bewildered.
“…”
The next day, Saturday, a spring rain fell.
Li Ge wasn’t in a hurry. When the rain temporarily stopped, he first went to the quiet bar’s parking lot to get his sports car, then checked his location, but couldn’t find it, it had been discovered by the dog.
He directly sent a series of life-threatening urging messages, Chen Shuo didn’t answer the phone, so he switched to WeChat bombing. After bombing, he drove straight to Chen Shuo’s apartment, but unexpectedly found it empty, and coincidentally ran into a real estate agent showing the apartment to a client.
What a fucking rocket speed.
Li Ge inquired and learned that Chen Shuo had contacted the agent yesterday to discuss subletting the apartment, and had moved out early this morning.
He suddenly became worried, worried that Chen Shuo would take a vacation and disappear like last year, so he urgently drove back and went straight to Chen Shuo’s own apartment.
Arriving at the door of 903, Li Ge knocked on the door, “bang, bang, bang,” while at the same time dialing Chen Shuo’s number. Soon, a crisp and melodious zither tune came from inside, followed by the door opening.
He was met with the funeral face he had been longing for.
