The Crematorium’s Scum Gong Gets to Clock Off After Being Replaced 55

Chapter 55: Roommate 15

“Gu Xiu?” Ji Ning’s voice came from outside the door. He saw a figure moving behind the frosted door, but the door wouldn’t open. His tone became more and more anxious. “Gu Xiu, are you in there?”

Gu Xiu seized the opportunity, quickly withdrew his hand, and belatedly felt the supple, smooth, and warm touch in his palm.

The corner of Chen Beichuan’s mouth quickly drooped. He reluctantly turned and moved aside. He hung the sweaty tank top on his neck and planned to wear the relatively dry jacket.

Gu Xiu immediately opened the locked door.

Ji Ning rushed in, let out a big sigh of relief when he saw him, and smiled. He held up a sports water bottle with both hands. “You forgot your water bottle…”

He didn’t finish his sentence.

His peripheral vision caught a glimpse of Chen Beichuan not far away, his hair sweaty, looking as if he had just had a good workout.

Although Chen Beichuan had indeed just come from the gym, his attire was truly unsightly. He was slightly turned to the side, zipping up his jacket, deliberately forcing Ji Ning to look. But one could still vaguely see a line of white between his zipper, and the tank top that had been thrown on a shelf because it was in the way.

It was soaked with hot sweat, wrinkled, and looked like a pickled vegetable.

Even though Gu Xiu in front of him was neatly dressed, his face was also flushed, as if he had been roasted.

Everything was said without words.

Ji Ning’s eyes trembled. He pretended to be nonchalant and said to Gu Xiu, “Then shall we go back together?”

Gu Xiu lowered his head to take the water bottle, revealing the tips of his ears, which were burning hot. He politely refused, “No, our dorms are not on the way. I still have to go to the supermarket to buy something.”

Ji Ning wanted to say something but held back. His gaze went back and forth between the two, and he couldn’t bear to leave first, for fear that something terrible would happen in this hidden locker room as soon as he left.

Gu Xiu didn’t want to have too much contact with the protagonist shou, and the protagonist gong behind him was even more of a flood and a fierce beast. Choosing the lesser of two evils, he said to Ji Ning, “We can go downstairs together.”

Ji Ning’s expression immediately relaxed, and he quickly urged, “Mm-hmm, let’s go!”

Gu Xiu led the way, and he followed. Before leaving, he didn’t forget to quietly turn his head and warily watch Chen Beichuan with his peripheral vision.

Chen Beichuan silently zipped up his jacket to the top and slightly lowered his head, his chin hidden in his collar. His face was blank, and his eyes under his wet black bangs were a little gloomy.

He touched and then ran. The little pervert stalker is quite a scum.

As soon as Gu Xiu went downstairs, he found an opportunity to shake off the protagonist shou.

Walking alone on the campus at night, Gu Xiu took a few deep breaths, feeling refreshed. The temperature of his face had cooled down, and the hand that had touched Chen Beichuan had also been blown clean by the night wind.

【’Key Mission Point 6′ is 100% complete!】 As Gu Xiu’s loyal sycophant, 007 popped out with passion. 【Jiujiu, I knew you were the best!】

But Gu Xiu’s face was sullen. 【Fine, now let’s talk about the matter of me spending one hundred and fifty thousand points to buy you a skin.】

007 immediately shrank its head and played dumb. 【No, I made it all up…】

No matter how much Gu Xiu tried to escape, he still had to return to this dormitory tonight. The original owner was just an ordinary college student from a small town and did not have enough funds for him to squander. He had no other choice but to obediently stay in the dormitory.

When he returned to the dormitory, Chen Beichuan had already taken a shower and was wearing a clean and refreshing white T-shirt. His half-dry hair was slicked back, revealing his clean and handsome eyes.

But these were just appearances! Gu Xiu knew very well that what male god campus prince, what Jinjiang protagonist gong? This person was not only foul-mouthed and had no manners, but he also didn’t know what male virtue was.

The first expression Gu Xiu gave him when he came back was a frown.

He was clearly disgusted. Chen Beichuan knew that this guy was duplicitous and didn’t care at all. He called out “Hey” with no response, then he called out again, “Gu Xiu.”

Gu Xiu scratched his ear, took his toiletries, and was about to go out to take a shower.

“Gu Xiu.”

This time, Chen Beichuan directly reached out, his long and slender fingers clasping his wrist.

Gu Xiu immediately struggled, his brows furrowed in anger. “Chen Beichuan! What are you doing? I’m going to take a shower… do you want to fight again?”

Chen Beichuan was concise. “Fine, let’s fight.”

Gu Xiu immediately fell silent. “…”

After easily dealing with the bluffing paper tiger, the corner of Chen Beichuan’s thin lips curled up slightly. He immediately became serious and called out again, “Gu Xiu.”

Gu Xiu was so provoked by his serious look, as if he were about to confess, that goosebumps broke out all over his body.

He shivered, put on a stern face, and said sharply, “If you have something to say, say it.”

“Gu Xiu,” Chen Beichuan, like he was sick, called out again, and then he got to the point. “Based on my observation, Ji Ning is 100% gay.”

Gu Xiu was silent. I was 200% sure when I first came here, he thought.

【Oh, oh, oh!】 007 said excitedly. 【The protagonist gong has come to his senses. Congratulations. Bending for love is just around the corner.】

Who knew that Chen Beichuan’s next words were completely out of the script. He directly pierced the most tangled and twisted part of the plot and told Gu Xiu bluntly, “Not only does Ji Ning like you, but he’s also very scheming. Stay away from him.”

Gu Xiu was stunned, and his brain was working at high speed.

【Holy shit?】 Gu Xiu showed a rare look of panic and frantically knocked on 007. 【This is a big deal, 007. He’s too direct. I, I still have to be scared when Ji Ning suddenly confesses, and then reject him…】

007 had never been able to solve emergencies and was useless.

“…Impossible,” Gu Xiu could only improvise and play dumb. “Impossible. I told you we’ve been good buddies for more than ten years. Do you have a problem with him, to make up such things about him?”

“Yes,” Chen Beichuan said bluntly. “I have a problem with him.”

Gu Xiu was speechless. “…”

Chen Beichuan pushed his luck and said in a commanding tone, “You are not to have any more contact with him.”

Gu Xiu still had a mission to do. Not to mention the mission, he was not happy to be ordered around. His whole face wrinkled, filled with displeasure. “Why should I?”

But Chen Beichuan was a little absent-minded. He couldn’t help but look at his changing single and double eyelids, trying to divert his attention. He then looked at his moving Adam’s apple, and the light brown mole next to it, and became even more absent-minded.

His brain was not working very well, so he mechanically repeated, “Anyway, you are not to have any more contact with him. I don’t like it.”

“Chen Beichuan, you seem to have a serious problem,” Gu Xiu no longer held back his words.

“Yes, I have a problem,” Chen Beichuan admitted, his eyes staring straight at him.

“…” A shameless person is invincible. The current Gu Xiu was deeply convinced of this.

“Gu Xiu, you must listen to me,” Chen Beichuan regained some of his rationality and calmly opened his phone, showing Gu Xiu the surveillance video from his closet. “Otherwise, you can explain what you’ve done and see if you can convince me?”

When Gu Xiu saw the clear close-up of himself on Chen Beichuan’s phone, he was stunned for a moment. But he had already been caught red-handed, so was he still afraid of this? Hehe, a shameless person is invincible. He had learned this from Chen Beichuan, and he was going to surpass him.

So he said calmly, “Oh, I thought your clothes were pretty. You don’t wear them, and since I’m your roommate, you won’t lose a piece of flesh if I try them on. Besides, you’re so rich. You can’t be that stingy, can you?”

As if he had never seen such a shameless person, Chen Beichuan fell into silence.

There was not a hint of embarrassment on Gu Xiu’s face. He even tilted his head curiously and swiped his finger on his phone screen.

He scrolled through the video recording files for a long time but couldn’t find the end.

“Damn, how many did you record…” Gu Xiu had a new understanding of the black sesame tangyuan nature of this protagonist gong.

Suddenly, Gu Xiu saw a somewhat unfamiliar version of himself on the screen. His eyes were unfocused and dazed, and his cheeks were a little red. From his clothes, it was the day Ji Ning had come to give him the liquor-filled chocolates.

He was so drunk he didn’t know which way was up. He had crawled into the dark and warm closet and had covered himself with Chen Beichuan’s clothes.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Not long after, he was pulled out by Chen Beichuan himself.

The closet was open, and the camera inside captured the figures of the two pulling at each other. Gu Xiu really didn’t expect himself to be so capable when he was drunk, to be able to hold down the protagonist gong so tightly, and to squeeze the other’s cheeks like a ball of dough with his two hands.

Gu Xiu was engrossed in watching this blurry memory when Chen Beichuan’s expression suddenly changed. He snatched his phone away and directly locked the screen.

Gu Xiu immediately shouted in dissatisfaction, “What else did you record? Did you do something to me?”

He was quite righteous for someone who had stolen a first kiss.

Chen Beichuan was silent for a moment with a complicated expression and answered a different question. “Even if you’re not afraid of me spreading these videos, at least… you probably don’t want Ji Ning to know, right?”

Gu Xiu’s face instantly changed.

Although stealing his roommate’s clothes to save face was to maintain his vain persona, and it had also indirectly saved the protagonist shou some money, if Ji Ning knew what he had done, and his filter was shattered, what if he didn’t confess to him?

That was the most crucial plot point, the key turning point from the protagonist shou’s humble crush to the scum gong’s crematorium!

Chen Beichuan got the answer he wanted from Gu Xiu’s face, but he was even more annoyed. Gu Xiu, who was so mischievous in front of him, was actually so concerned about his image in Ji Ning’s heart…

With a straight face, Chen Beichuan said coldly, “Let’s have a competition.”

“If you win, I’ll delete all these videos and guarantee that I won’t leak this matter,” Chen Beichuan said. “If I win, you have to agree to one of my requests.”

Gu Xiu was slightly stunned and looked up. “Huh? What kind of competition?”

For the sake of fairness, Chen Beichuan proposed a new competition method. “Basketball, how about it?”

【Very good, very good!】 007 popped out, excited on its own. 【Tonight is so smooth. We’ve directly fast-forwarded to the next key plot point where you and the protagonist gong have a basketball duel! Immediately after, the protagonist shou’s confession is rejected, and you can finally enter the crematorium!!】

Gu Xiu: “…”

He really wanted to say, you stupid system, do you want to hear what nonsense you’re saying? But then he suddenly felt that this rant was familiar, as if it had happened more than once or twice before.

Gu Xiu heard his own voice and readily agreed, “Okay.”

Chen Beichuan’s sharp gaze was locked on him. He seemed to have not considered the possibility of his own defeat at all, with a strong confidence of winning. He emphasized again, “Okay, a gentleman’s word is his bond. If you lose, you have to agree to one of my requests.”
