DTTCM Chapter 105

Qingbei 101 dormitory.

“Sheng Yuan, have you seen where I put my suit and tie?”

Zheng Zilu was rummaging around the dormitory, searching high and low. He clearly left his entire outfit on the chair before going to bed last night.

Sheng Yuan came out of the bathroom in the dormitory. He had a tall and slender figure, distinguished features, and neatly groomed hair. He looked like a charming and handsome senior.

Truly Ambitious even voiced it out.

[System: Like a popular senior.]

Sheng Yuan: “Indeed, that’s me.”

Truly Ambitious: “…”

What a bastard.

Today was the 50th anniversary celebration of No.1 Middle School, and the campus was open to visitors. Sheng Yuan and Zheng Zilu have achieved outstanding results in their studies, so they were invited back as exemplary alumni to give speeches to the juniors.

After searching for a while, Zheng Zilu still couldn’t find his fancy red tie. He slumped onto the chair in frustration.

“My world will never brighten again.”

Sheng Yuan: “…”

Truly Ambitious: “…”

This kid’s world has never been bright.

Sheng Yuan patted his shoulder with a kind smile. “It’s okay. You still look handsome even without a tie.”

Zheng Zilu looked up. “Really?”

Sheng Yuan: “Not really.”

“…”

An earth-shattering roar erupted in Room 101.

“You bastard!!!!”

There are always some untimely regrets in life, and Zheng Zilu couldn’t find his red tie even after getting on the car.

Zheng Zilu sat in the driver’s seat of the rented car and fastened his seat belt. Although Sheng Yuan could also drive, Zheng Zilu felt more confident driving himself, having experienced Sheng Yuan’s lightning-fast cycling skills in high school.

He took out his phone to navigate the route.

“Should we go to the Beijing Olympic Sports Center first, and then to the Central Academy of Fine Arts?” he asked.

Sheng Yuan replied, “The main job is to pick up Cun Tou and Jin Anzhu. Xia Zhiqi and Xiao Pang have already gone ahead.”

“Okay.” Zheng Zilu shifted gears, and the car started smoothly.

Jin Anzhu stood by the roadside holding a sun umbrella. Soon, he spotted a Beetle approaching leisurely. Its appearance seemed ordinary, and Jin Anzhu even felt a bit disdainful.

But when the car window rolled down, a handsome face appeared, as if carved from jade.

“Brother Sheng!” Jin Anzhu exclaimed.

Sheng Yuan replied, “Let’s go. You can sit in the front.”

Jin Anzhu shyly hesitated, “Brother Sheng, did you remember that I get carsick and need to sit in the front?”

Zheng Zilu interjected, “This dogf***er just wants to sleep in the back.”

Jin Anzhu: “…”

I’m not listening! I’m not listening!

They also picked up Cun Tou, and then headed to their alma mater. The journey took over two hours, during which Zheng Zilu frequently called out to Sheng Yuan.

“Sheng Yuan, where did I put my driver’s license? I forgot.”

“Sheng Yuan, did I put the water bottle in my bag?”

“Sheng Yuan…”

Jin Anzhu who was sitting in the passenger seat asked, “Why do you make Sheng Ge remember everything? Aren’t you afraid…”

Zheng Zilu interrupted, “Afraid of what?”

Jin Anzhu whispered, “Aren’t you afraid that Yu Zuojin will beat you up?”

Zheng Zilu shuddered immediately, recalling their high school days when the world was always dark. He realized that he should indeed correct his bad habits.

“Thank you for saving me, young hero.”

“How about you repay the favor?”

~

When they arrived at No.1 Middle School, they spotted Xia Zhiqi waiting at the school gate. In the college entrance exam, Xia Zhiqi was an unexpected dark horse. Although he didn’t enter top-tier universities like Qingbei, the university he attended was envied by many other candidates.

Seeing Xia Zhiqi greeting younger students at the school gate, Cun Tou showed a look of disdain and asked, “What is he doing?”

Jin Anzhu replied, “He’s pretending.”

Xia Zhiqi sensed the disdainful gazes and his bright eyes inadvertently turned into an innocent and foolish look, like the village idiot at the crossroads.

“Brother Sheng!!!”

He waved his arms around like a noodle.

Everyone: “…”

Even though Sheng Yuan had already graduated, he remained a legendary figure discussed by every new batch of students at No.1 Middle School . He might not be in the news anymore, but his legend still lingered.

Iron Head remained at the school all this while, and his hair was even becoming scarce.

As Iron Head’s favorite student, Sheng Yuan naturally brought a gift when he came to visit.

Iron Head: “You came back, why did you bring a gift?”

Sheng Yuan unpacked the gift, revealing a high-quality wig.

“Do you like it?” Sheng Yuan asked.

Five seconds later, the door of the Headmaster’s office slammed shut in front of Sheng Yuan.

Sheng Yuan chuckled softly, “He’s so touched. He must have gone to cry in his office.”

True ambitions: “…”

How the hell did this bastard come to this conclusion?

Sheng Yuan’s phone vibrated with a message.

Sheng Yuan swiped to open the message, which was a mirror selfie sent by Yu Zuojin.

Yu Zuojin should have landed by now, so this message was likely something he had sent before.

Jin Anzhu was standing next to him and he glanced at the cover photo in the dim light. It showed a half-naked muscular man with gray sweatpants barely hanging on his waist.

His eyes went wide. Fuck! What a physique!

He wanted to see the person’s ID and search for him online later. This physique was simply too alluring.

Jin Anzhu said, “Brother Sheng, are you looking at other men on the side?”

Sheng Yuan dimmed the screen of his phone.

[System: He’s really good at talking.]

Although they had obtained a certificate and their relationship was stable, Yu Zuojin had become even more clingy than before. He would return every few days, fearing that Sheng Yuan might lose interest in him. Later, he created some tricks to make things remain novel for Sheng Yuan.

At first, Yu Zuojin scoffed at these tactics, but his male model colleague told him it would help strengthen their relationship.

That’s how the idea of flirtatious videos was born. After the two of them tried it once before Sheng Yuan entered university, they couldn’t stop themselves after tasting the forbidden fruit.

Yu Zuojin sent flirtatious videos frequently, so Sheng Yuan thought of returning the favor. Since his legs looked good, he filmed a video and sent it back.

Yu Zuojin, who was still working abroad, immediately booked a flight back to China.

Yu Zuojin: Pause the shooting, I’m going home!

His manager had long grown accustomed to his frequent trips back and forth. As long as Yu Zuojin came back, there was nothing else he desired.

His career was skyrocketing, having landed two major magazine covers within a year. He was handsome, haf a naturally proportioned body and also visited the gym daily. With such conditions, Yu Zoujin’s popularity soared, especially with his Zeus series of hairstyles.

Sheng Yuan calculated how long it had been since they last met, and it had been almost half a month. Although they video chatted every day, it wasn’t the same.

Yu Zuojin had sent a hotel’s location to Sheng Yuan’s phone.

Sheng Yuan narrowed his eyes.

Well, it’s time for the life-or-death struggle.

When long-distance couples meet, they always experience a near-death encounter. At first, they were apart for about two months, so on the day Yu Zuojin flew back, they didn’t even have a meal at the hotel. They were busy from 10 a.m. until midnight.

Sheng Yuan went to the school auditorium to give a speech, and the applause below was thunderous.

“So this is Senior Sheng!”

“After reading so many posts, I finally see him live.”

“He’s so handsome. Does he have a girlfriend?”

“Don’t you keep up with the gossip? He has a boyfriend.”

“A boyfriend!!!”

“It’s Brother Yu. Check the forums.”

“No need to search. Just go to the official school website, their promotional picture is right there.”

“Wow, oh wow.”

This revelation seemed to open the doors to a new world.

After coming down from the stage, enthusiastic huniors approached Sheng Yuan, hugging him and striking up conversations.

A voice cut through the crowd.

“Senior Sheng, what is Brother Yu doing right now?”

Truly Ambitious, who was eager to improve, spoke up.

[System: Engaging in flirtatious activities online.]

Sheng Yuan: “…”

Meanwhile, in the physics department, Teacher Li was talking to the students who came to ask about today’s questions.

A new teacher teased him, ”Teacher Li, the relationship with your students isn’t good enough.”

Teacher Li forced a smile, “My students are all busy, and it’s better that way.”

At that moment, there was a light knock on the office door.

Teacher Li sighed, “Who is it?”

The door opened, and a pair of long legs stepped inside.

Yu Zuojin: It’s me, Old man.

With his unique temperament and powerful presence, Yu Zuojin exuded a subtle aura that set him apart from ordinary people. And his handsome appearance and remarkable physique made him the center of attention wherever he went.

Teacher Li was stunned for a few seconds before he stood up and hugged him tightly.

“You rebel, I knew you would come back to visit me!”

Looking at the somewhat embarrassing Teacher Li, Yu Zuojin showed no expression, and even seemed a bit numb. But instead of rejecting him, he handed over a paper bag, which contained a valuable gift. It was something that Teacher Li couldn’t afford even if he worked as a high school teacher for a lifetime.

He also met an unexpected person outside a luxury store abroad.

Huang Anchong.

He and his assistant were walking past a street corner when a hand reached out in front of them.

“Sir, would you like some? This is some good stuff.”

“I can give you a discount, and if you need more in the future, you can find me.”

The assistant, being a local, immediately recognized the item in his hand as drugs. Private drug circulation was common overseas, but this wasn’t something good.

Yu Zuojin didn’t touch drugs, and it was even less likely that the company would allow it.

The assistant pushed the yellow-skinned and thin man in front of them away.

“Get lost!”

However, the man persisted. His sunken eyes and yellowing eyeballs indicated that he was clearly addicted to drugs.

There was obvious discrimination against Asians abroad, let alone someone like Huang Anchong who was short and easy to bully. However, he was shrewd and knew how to go with the flow. He did what his classmates liked in private, and he often smuggled drugs to sell to those students. It helped him avoid some bullying, but when he couldn’t obtain the drugs, he faced even more brutal beatings. At first, Huang Anchong swore never to touch drugs, but over time, curiosity arose, and the addiction became stronger.

The two people In front of him were well-dressed, with expensive brands all over their bodies. It was clear they were wealthy.

In this region where drugs were prohibited, but he had the means to circulate them. If the other party wanted it, he could provide it and even establish a connection.

He kept pestering until he heard Yu Zuojin’s voice, a voice he hadn’t heard in years.

“Get lost.”

Huang Anchong stared at the person wearing sunglasses.

His eyes widened, and his eyeballs seemed to be on the verge of falling out, filled with morbid shock.

Yu Zuojin didn’t even look at him, treating him as if he were a roadside trash can filled with foul-smelling sewage.

They were on the same street, but the two couldn’t be more different.

—-

Yu Zuojin had bought several gifts which he took to the noodle shop and gave to his in laws.

He didn’t linger after that and left immediately, Sheng Yuan was waiting for him.

The two of them were as close as glue, like they were born together.

After spending a day at No.1 Middle School, Yu Zuojin returned to Qingbei with Sheng Yuan after the school celebration came to an end. Sheng Yuan wanted to get some clothes as the next two days were the weekend, a perfect time for the two of them to be alone.

As Sheng Yuan was getting his clothes, Yu Zuojin sat on his bed, waiting.

Coincidentally, Zheng Zilu was also looking for summer clothes and couldn’t find a few items.

Without thinking, he asked, “Sheng Yuan, have you seen my pants?”

An intense gaze fell upon him.

Zheng Zilu froze, slowly turning around to meet Yu Zuojin’s pitch-black eyes.

He didn’t say anything, but Zheng Zilu seemed to hear something.

Yu Zuojin: You are alive today because of the law.

Zheng Zilu: “…”

Can’t he just ask about his pants!

He trembled.

His world would never bright again!

After packing up, Sheng Yuan took the bag and walked out of Room 101 with Yu Zuojin.

They didn’t bother pretending when they arrived at the hotel and undressed directly. Yu Zoujin no longer even bothered maintaining an innocent persona.

Now, he was burning with desire.

Although he remained as taciturn as before, his actions went from being discreetly thick skinned to blatantly thick skinned.

Sheng Yuan asked, “What’s the rush?”

Yu Zuojin replied in a hoarse voice, “I’m wearing the white one you like.”

By the time Sheng Yuan’s came back to his sense, it was already noon the next day. He touched the water bottle on the bedside table and took a few sips.

His voice had gone hoarse from yesterday, and Yu Zuojin was now snuggled against him and hugging his waist, sleeping soundly like a big dog.

Sheng Yuan slowly leaned over and whispered something in his ear.

Yu Zuojin opened his eyes, and although he wasn’t wearing his hearing aid, he could hear Sheng Yuan’s words.

“I love you.”

Every morning they spent together, the first thing Sheng Yuan would say to him was, “I love you.”

Gradually, even without the assistance of a hearing aid, he could hear Sheng Yuan’s words.

Though there was no sound, it deafened him.

He thought he was standing alone on the edge of a cliff with no one to rely on, but he realized someone loved him when he turned around.

Sheng Yuan was the grand spring in his life.

He got up and kissed him passionately.

The sunlight scattered on the two of them, warm and radiant.

Your love completes me, and I am no longer broken.

His spring will never wither.

THE END!
