Chapter 40 (Hi, My Name Is Gu Xi) When You Look at Me, the Whole World Is Lit up.
The next morning, Zheng Kai got up early and asked Zhao Yuan, Wang Xiang and some other boys from some other dorms to play basketball together.
Zhao Yuan wanted to ask Lin Wenxi to play together, but Lin Wenxi still lay on his bed and even covered his head with his quilt. Upon seeing that, Zhao Yuan thought, “It must’ve been difficult for him to fall asleep last night. He turned his flashlight on and seemed to be reading something throughout the night.” Zhao Yuan did not sleep well either and could not help but rub his eyes.
Upon seeing that, Zheng Kai teased, “What? Were you too excited to fall asleep last night after getting a pretty girlfriend and this jersey?”
Wang Xiang put an arm around Zheng Kai’s shoulders and asked, “Brother Kai. do you really don’t mind it at all?”
Zheng Kaizheng said solemnly, “Well, it’s a fair competition. I can’t put the blame on my friend because I’m not so skillful as he is!”
Wang Xiang smiled meaningfully and asked, “Skillful? What kind of skill? Have you guys tried it together?”
Zheng Kai deliberately squinted his eyes and asked, “Do you want to try?”
Wang Xiang raised his butts and said, “Come on.”
Zheng Kai punched him and said, “If I didn’t know that you have a girlfriend, I would really be disgusted by your jokes!”
Wang Xiang said seriously, “Alas, if I did not have this girlfriend, I would still be a pure-minded child.”
After that, he talked to Zhao Yuan, who had remained silent all this while. “Brother Yuan, I’ll wash this jersey at noon when we come back. When it gets dry, I’ll give it to you. What do you say?”
Zhao Yuan replied, “Just keep it. The bet is a joke. I never mean to take your jersey. By the way, don’t drink that much again. Even if you drink, remember to keep your mouth shut!”
Upon hearing that, Wang Xiang lowered his head embarrassedly and said, “Thank you for your advice. I nearly forgot that it was I who divulged this secret. I’m really sorry, bro. Let me treat you to lunch, okay?”
“Just one meal? Unless you defeat me in the basketball game, you’ll have to treat me to lunch every day! What do you say?” said Zhao Yuan.
“You’ll have to treat me to lunch every day too. Come on, Wang Xiang. You’re loaded. Just consider this as some public welfare undertakings,” Zheng Kai said slowly.
Wang Xiang smirked and agreed.
Suddenly, they saw Zhao Yuan walk toward the canteen alone.
“Hey, let’s eat together after the game,” said Zheng Kai.
Upon hearing that, Wang Xiang said with a smile, “Sigh, you deserve to be alone for your whole life, Zheng Kai. He just leaves to buy some breakfast food for Wanxin or Lin Wenxi!”
“Then why didn’t you buy breakfast food for An’an?”
“The snacks in her dorm are enough for her to eat for half a year. Why do I have to be worried about her breakfast?”
“You’re feeding her up. Once she’s fattened by you and looks like a sow, won’t you feel embarrassed to take her out?”
“Well, I’ll fatten myself up until I look like a boar. In this way, we’ll still look well-matched,” Wang Xiang said smilingly. Zheng Kai was rendered speechless. They stood in the place, waiting for Zhao Yuan. After a while, they saw Zhao Yuan walk back toward their dorm with some breakfast food, which was obviously just enough for one person.
Lin Wenxi was still lying on his bed. He did not want to wake up. He dared not to wake up. No matter how strong the hangover was, he was conscious enough to think of what had happened last night. Upon thinking that Zhao Yuan had a girlfriend now, he somehow felt frustrated and dejected so much so that he was unable to open his eyes or eat anything. He continued covering his head with his quilt, shrouding himself in the darkness.
“Hey, come on. I’ve found a sister-in-law for you. Why are you so unhappy?” Zhao Yuan teased and took the quilt off Lin Wenxi. Lin Wenxi still kept his eyes tightly closed, and his face and ears all blushed red.
“Hey, wake up. You know what. You have to face the reality bravely.” Zhao Yuan said while feeling somewhat anxious.
“Stop it, Wenxi. Anyway, she’s not really my girlfriend.
“By the way, do you really care so much about the fact that I have a girlfriend now?
“Wenxi, come on, get up for breakfast. You can continue to have a tantrum after eating something for breakfast.
“Wenxi, as long as you agree to have breakfast, I’ll listen to everything you say.”
Zhao Yuan softened his voice and continued, “Wenxi, please open your eyes to look at the breakfast food. You can’t waste it like that. It’s innocent.” He gently patted Lin Wenxi’s forehead and said, “Cute Wenxi, it’s time to have breakfast. Don’t starve yourself. I’ll give you a satisfactory answer.”
Lin Wenxi finally opened his eyes and asked in a sleepy voice, “What did you say just now?”
“I... I’ll give you a satisfactory answer...” said Zhao Yuan.
“No, before that.”
“The food is innocent.”
“No, still before that.”
“I can’t remember.”
Lin Wenxi closed his eyes again.
“Alright, alright. I’ll listen to everything you say,” said Zhao Yuan.
Upon hearing that, Lin Wenxi sprang from his bed, devoured the buns and the soy milk and then handed the paper bags to Zhao Yuan, while saying. “This is my first command. Throw the garbage away for me.”
Zhao Yuan took it over, looked at Lin Wenxi for a moment, and said coldly, “I only said that I’ll listen to everything you say. I didn’t say that I’ll do whatever you want. Remember it.” With these words, Zhao Yuan threw the garbage away and cleaned the table for Lin Wenxi. “I’ll go to play basketball now,” Zhao Yuan said and left loiteringly. Upon seeing that, Lin Wenxi felt somewhat upset. He sat on his bed and remained silent for a long time. He wanted to tickle his throat to vomit the food out. On second thought, he gave up this idea, as he was afraid that it would make him look bad. He began to read some piano notes to distract himself.
When he was engrossed in the piano notes, someone knocked at the door and walked in.
“Who are you looking for?” Lin Wenxi asked without looking up, as he was busy thinking about the tune played by Zhu Ziping.
“Does Zheng Kai live here?” A somewhat childish voice asked. It sounded so sweet and clear that Lin Wenxi could not help but look up at the person.
He looked the person up and down and felt surprised.
That boy had bright eyes and distinct eyebrows. His soft black hair fell over his forehead. He had a somewhat slender figure, and his skin was as white as snow. Besides, he also smelt great.
“Hi, my name is Gu Xi.” The boy introduced himself.
Lin Wenxi muttered to himself, “You eyes are as bright as the moon and as clear as the snowflakes. When you look at me, the whole world is lit up.”
Gu Xi clapped his hands and said smilingly, “Thank you. You’re so nice. You must be Zheng Kai’s roommate Wang Xiang! I heard of you a long time ago!”
Lin Wenxi did not deny that. He just pointed to Zheng Kai’s bed and said, “He sleeps over there, the lower berth.”
Gu Xi walked to Zheng Kai’s desk and then sat at the desk to gaze at a photo of Zheng Kai. He whispered to himself. “I haven’t met him for months. He looks even more masculine now. It looks like he has just won a first prize in some competition. Well, no one can defeat him. He’s graduated from the Green Fields Military Academy.”
Lin Wenxi remain seated on his bed and looked Gu Xi up and down, while exclaiming in his heart, “This Gu Xi is such a pretty boy.”
Gu Xi did not pay much attention to Lin Wenxi in the beginning. He frowned and continued to whisper to himself, “Oh, he must have drunk a lot of liquor last night,” With these words, he turned around and looked at Lin Wenxi. He chuckled and said, “You’re not Wang Xiang. You’re Lin Wenxi, and the one who sleeps on the upper berth above you is Zhao Yuan. I’ve been looking forward to meeting you!”
Lin Wenxi wondered curiously, “Why does this boy know all of our names just by finding Zheng Kai’s bed?” He smiled and asked, “Why are you looking forward to meeting me?”
Gu Xi blinked an eye and said smilingly, “You’re different from what I thought you’d be. It’s said that you’re a poker face, who never speaks more than four words. They say that a person will be frozen to death by sitting beside you.”
Lin Wenxi nodded slightly and said, “You’re too pretty. I just can’t stop myself from talking to you.”
“Really?” Gu Xi sat beside Lin Wenxi, smoothed his hair and asked, “Do I look better this way?”
Lin Wenxi hurriedly nodded and said, “Great, that’s great.”
Gu Xi looked delighted. He looked over the books on Lin Wenxi’s desk. He moved so gently without making a sound. He patted Lin Wenxi’s shoulder and said, “You are such a nice guy. I’ll call you big brother Wenxi. Is that okay?”
Lin Wenxi smirked and thought, “Well, I don’t think that there’s any student in this university who is younger than me. I had just turned 17 when I was enrolled by Jifu University. This Gu Xi was exceptionally pretty. How come we never heard about him during the military training? He must’ve been enrolled recently and thus skipped the training.”
“No problem, so I’ll call you Little Gu.”
“No, you call me Little Xixi.”
“Xixi? I’ll feel that I’m calling myself.”
“Then I’ll call you Big Xixi, and you’ll call me Little Xixi. That’s it.”
Lin Wenxi just did not want to say no to such a pretty boy, so he immediately nodded his head in agreement.
Upon seeing that, Gu Xi beamed brightly with satisfaction. His lips were red, and his teeth were white and regular. Lin Wenxi just could not move his eyes away from him.
Lin Wenxi was so impressed by the good-looking boy that he even started to feel ashamed of his own appearance and totally forgot about his complaints about Zhao Yuan.
Suddenly, he thought of the two holes in his tent and what had happened to Zhao Yuan and himself during the military training. He immediately went to close the door of his dorm, while thinking worriedly, “We’re doomed. Once Zhang An’an and Shu Xiaoman know about this Gu Xi and that he seems to have a thing for Zheng Kai, they’ll try their best to sneak to our dorm and even drill holes into our door.”
