Chapter 1: My Mom is Getting Married Translator: Sienna ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Dad, mom is getting married” “Well, congratulations on your mom’s wedding.” Bai Luo Yin woke up with a start, the back of his ears and neck were drenched with sweat. The summer days had yet to pass and thus, the hot weather always woke him up every morning. He then casually used his hand to wipe away the sweat, the center of his palm dripping with beads of sweat. His mood was particularly sour that morning. Slipping on a pair of slippers, Bai Luo Yin drowsily dragged his feet to the sink and let his head hang below the water faucet. The ice-cold tap water immediately flowed down along his neck and it managed to brighten up his mood a little bit. Bai Luo Yin’s father, Bai Han Qi, was currently sweeping the courtyard. He was 1.85 meter tall and all he did every day was handling the household chores. If he could do the chores in perfect order then it’s no problem, but unfortunately, he always managed to screw them up. It was the reason why Bai Luo Yin regarded him as an eyesore every time. After brushing his teeth, Bai Luo Yin swallowed the water in the mug then spat it out again. He opened the water tap to let the white foams drain away. Then, he realized that the water did not drain as usual and the sink seemed to be clogged. After a minute, Bai Luo Yin used a wooden stick to stir up a rag inside the pond, afterwards the water began to flow much quicker. “Dad, you threw my underwear into the sink again.” Bai Han Qi was sweeping halfway and when he heard this, he stopped abruptly. He left his broom behind to walk over to the laundry hangers. Counting one, two, three... repeatedly. Apparently, one underwear seemed to be missing. No words are needed, the underwear must had slipped out during washing and fell into the sewer along with the dirty water. “Hey, don’t throw it away. You can still wear it after washing it.” Bai Luo Yin was so furious that the tip of his nose was sweating. He replied, “That’s enough, you wear it by yourself then.” 1
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin left the house. After passing an alley, he ran into Yang Meng by chance. Yang Meng’s name was very different from his personality. His father was the village’s most famous pretty boy during his youth, even prettier than most girls were. It was a pity that the local folks at that time were not open-minded, so he suffered while growing up in such an environment. Hence, in order to improve the gene of his offspring, Yang Meng’s father inconveniently married a strong woman. Therefore, when Yang Meng was born, his father put great expectations and hopes in his only son and named him “Meng”, which means fierce. Unfortunately, since his childhood Yang Meng had taken after his father. When the other boys would play around the mud and climb trees outside, Yang Meng would stay at home and sew instead. That’s the reason why his father often beat him. Every time his father finished hitting him, he would wipe his tears for a while then continued to lecture Yang Meng. “What happened to your hair?” Yang Meng touched his own head, a trace of sadness was apparent on his pretty face, “Enough, say no more. When I woke up early in the morning, all my hair is already gone.” “Your father secretly shaved your head last night?” “Of course, who would do that except for him!” Bai Luo Yin laughed, “Apparently, we have similar fate.” Suddenly, Yang Meng recalled something and smacked Bai Luo Yin’s back, “When you gave me a call yesterday, you hanged up half way. So what do you actually want to tell me?” Bai Luo Yin stayed silent for a while before he answered faintly, “My mom is getting married.” Yang Meng was shocked as he asked, “You have a mother?” Bai Luo Yin took a deep breath, “Do you think my dad is an earthworm who saves energy at the fifth phase and mate at the sixth, then fertilize himself?” Yang Meng laughed, his shoulders quivering, “Don’t tease me, tell me the truth. Ever since I know you, I’ve never seen your mom.” “Bullshit! Last year when my mom came home, she stayed for a week, or did you forget? My mom often parked nearby your house.” “Oh, I remember now, that’s your mom? Why does she look younger than my niece?” 2
你丫上瘾了? “Are you kidding me?” “I’m not, my niece was born just a few days ago and her head is full of wrinkles.” “Every newborn baby is like that.” This time, Yang Meng kept silent after seeing Bai Luo Yin’s expressionless face beside him. It was as if a layer of understanding suddenly swept over his mind. From small, his best friend and his dad had went through futureless days of poverty. And now that his mom wanted to remarry, one can only imagine Bai Luo Yin’s state of mind. “How about this, I will find a group of people to go to your mom’s wedding and thrash the place. What do you think?” “You?”Bai Luo Yin expressed a look of disdain, “What kind of people can you find? A group of pretty boys? To fight an army of officers and troops?” “Armed officers?” Yang Meng was surprised and his face turned pale, “What kind of person is your mom marrying?” “A major general.” Yang Meng became speechless, “What... What a high military rank.” “Go on.” “What?” “Tell me what kind of people you wanted to find.” Yang Meng’s face, hit by the sunlight, rapidly becomes paler. “Supposed that I find some, it would be no different from courting death.” Bai Luo Yin suddenly halted and stared at Yang Meng. Fiery determination was burning behind his eyes, those flames were slowly being suppressed and would burst forth at any time. “It’s okay, tell me what’s going on inside your mind right now.” Yang Meng stopped breathing and his confidence wavering briefly, “My uncle is the director of a group of people that wails at funerals. At first, I wanted to request my uncle to find a crowd to weep at your mom’s wedding, but now...” “That’s great!” all of a sudden, Bai Luo Yin interrupted Yang Meng, “So, how do I contact your uncle?” “Don’t you dare bring us to trouble, we are only normal civilians.” “Don’t worry,” Bai Luo Yin smirked cunningly, “Your uncle will not get into trouble.” 3

Chapter 5: Don't Ever Mention Their Family Translator: Sienna ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Wake up, don’t go back to sleep. Go buy some medicine for your grandmother.” Bai Luo Yin rubbed his eyes drowsily and saw that the sky is still dark. “You don’t need to take a waiting number when you buy the medicine. If we have the medical prescription, then we can directly queue up.” Bai Luo Yin hummed, then turned his body over. Bai Luo Yin struggled for a bit, nevertheless he grudgingly got out of bed. Every morning, breakfast had been the same for the past 10 years, which were deep-fried fritters and soft bean curd. Every day, Bai Han Qi would be the first one to go to the breakfast stall to buy breakfast. Although, sometimes the woman who set up the stall had not arrived yet, he would still wait right there until she had arrived. Gradually, both of them become more familiar with each other and every time Bai Han Qi went to the stall, the stall lady would immediately pack a tasty breakfast and hand it over to Bai Han Qi. “I’m already full.” Bai Luo Yin put his spoon down. Bai Han Qi stared at his son, “You always left a bite behind every day.” Bai Luo Yin had a bad habit. Regardless of what kind of food he ate, he always left a mouthful behind. Even when he had not eaten until full, a bit of food always remain each time, and this habit has occurred since Bai Luo Yin was still a child. When he was young, his father did not eat his fill and Bai Han Qi would give what food he could set aside for Bai Luo Yin. As a result, Bai Luo Yin loved his dad dearly while feeling sorry for him at the same time. And thus, he left his dad a mouthful each time. Even when they could eat plentifully now, this bad habit could not be changed anymore. Today was Friday and the doctor was not available on the weekend. Therefore, the queue at the hospital was tremendously long. Especially at the top three hospitals, it was packed with people who wanted to visit the doctor. Moreover, the crowd was almost the same as the crowd during rush hour at Beijing subway. “Hey bro, you stepped on my foot.” “Impossible, our feet aren’t close at all.” 7
Are you Addicted? “….” In the queue, Bai Luo Yin was standing behind a beautiful girl. Unexpectedly, the person behind shoved him which caused Bai Luo Yin to bump into the girl in front of him repeatedly. He did not know whether he should be annoyed or happy. If he bumped into her once more, he was afraid that she might get pregnant. “Hey, handsome guy.” “I’m calling you.” Bai Luo Yin was still thinking about the beautiful girl in front of him, until the person behind him tapped his shoulder. Only then that he gazed sideways and realized that, apparently two girls, with similar looks and fashionable dress, had cut in line. “Hey gorgeous. I’ll give you two options, either you let me stand in front of you or give me your phone number.” “136XXXXXXXX” The two girls walked away while giggling happily. As if the girl in front of him had waited long enough for Bai Luo Yin to start talking, she finally gathered enough courage and turned back, “Is that really your phone number?” “I don’t even have a cell phone.” “…” After waiting until midday, Bai Luo Yin finally went home while carrying a bag of medicine. Originally, his family was not that poor, the main reason was there were two elderlies in their family. They needed to spend 1057 yuan and 3.2 mao for monthly medicinal expense. His grandmother relied on medications to maintain her condition. On the other hand, his grandfather had cerebral thrombosis and to prevent it from recurring, he needed to have an IV drip therapy every once in a while. Bai Han Qi had two elder brothers; the eldest was a doctor, who taught at a wellknown university in Beijing as a professor. His monthly salary exceeded a million/ten thousand yuan combined with countless projects. However, his biggest hobby was dressing up as poor person. The second eldest brother was an extravagant businessman who always completely spend his money whenever he consulted the elderly doctor. “Auntie.” Bai Luo Yin gently greeted the neighbor in front of him. “You’ve come back? Do you have any food for lunch?” 8
你丫上瘾了? “I don’t know.” Right after Bai Luo Yin finished speaking, he suddenly heard the sound of a car honking behind him. He turned his head and looked back, then he saw a luxurious and imposing military vehicle. Glancing back again, he saw that the owner of a vehicle was a young, beautiful lady. Bai Luo Yin fastened his pace. “Xiao Yin.” In order to chase after Bai Luo Yin, Jiang Yuan had to run wildly while lifting her long skirt. Supposed if Gu Hai caught a sight of her appearance, he would immediately criticize her in his mind. “Why are you avoiding me?” Bai Luo Yin kept silent. “I called you because I need to talk to you, get on the car.” Bai Luo Yin did not budge an inch, his expression cold and detached. “If you don’t answer me, I will enter your house courtyard.” Bai Luo Yin vaguely heard his grandmother’s voice talking in the courtyard. The contents inside the plastic bag he was holding were the medicines to treat his grandmother’s heart disease. Bai Luo Yin struggled for a while before relenting, it is better to compromise with her. “The graduation rate of the high school you are attending right now is low. Moreover, the teaching environment is also no good. I can help you to contact a private high school and you can study there for two years. After the college entrance examination, I will arrange for you to study abroad.” Bai Luo Yin only said, “I’m not going.” Jiang Yuan had foreseen this kind of outcome, but her heart would not give up. “You can resent me, while questioning what kind of mother I am. However, you must not begrudge yourself like this. What can you achieve by studying in that worn-out high school? You are at the same age with the son of my new husband. He is also attending the private high school that I have arranged for you. You will have boundless prospects in the future, where’s the difference between the both of you?”
New husband – when Bai Luo Yin heard these two words, he froze. “Don’t tell me that you are still willing to follow your father’s path, becoming a goodfor-nothing throughout his entire life, and still riding a bicycle to work at 40 years old?” 9
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin calmly swallowed his saliva, and at last, he uttered a complete sentence. “A person’s accomplishments are not judged merely by the individual wealth they possessed, but it depends on the wealth they managed to give to other people instead. So, I want to ask you, Mrs. Jiang Yuan. You drive luxurious cars and wear classy bags, but how many people have you supported and provided for?” This short sentence practically stabbed Jiang Yuan’s stomach like a knife. She stared blankly at Bai Luo Yin for a long time, then she started to talk with trembling lips. “I realize that I did not fulfill my duty as a mother properly and I am trying to make up for it at this very moment. You are still 17 years old and I am still young, so why can’t you give me another chance?” “I’ll give you a chance. Don’t you come and find me anymore.” Bai Luo Yin stood up and walked straight towards the door. “Xiao Yin!” Jiang Yuan stood up and cried out. Bai Luo Yin clenched his fist tightly and looked back at Jiang Yuan. “And next time, don’t ever mention that family in front of me again. I’m sick of it.”

Chapter 7: The Brother with Baggy Pants and Slippers Translator: Sienna ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Near noon, Bai Luo Yin was rudely awakened by a phone call. When Bai Luo Yin picked up the phone, Yang Meng’s cheery and exuberant voice instantly resounded through the receiver. “Hey bro, are you still sleeping? School starts today. You are assigned to class 27. Quick, come and register. I guarantee that you will get a big, pleasant surprise.” Bai Luo Yin proceeded to sit up. The agitation that reverberated all over his body due to Yang Meng’s sudden phone call had yet to recede. As he remembered how fast the school is starting again, his heart felt even more fed up. The other students were already sitting inside the class, but he’s still at home, putting on his clothes leisurely instead of hastening his movements. During his trip to the school, Bai Luo Yin felt something weird on his feet. When he lowered his head to check below, he just realized that he was actually wearing slippers to school.
Never mind, I’ve already walked this far. I don’t want to go back home again. Bai Luo Yin pushed the door and walked inside class 27, one of the second year high school classes. There is a rule. The last student who is late to class will definitely attract the highest level of attention from every other student and Bai Luo Yin is no exception. Nevertheless, Bai Luo Yin still looked unconcerned. He was already late to class, but instead of giving an explanation, he confidently walked to the last available table, pulled the chair out, then sat on it. All along, his expression was very calm and composed. As a result of his behavior, the surrounding students booed and hissed at him. Bai Luo Yin didn’t understand the reason why did the students around catcalled at him. Then, the male student beside him kindly enlightened the suspicions in his heart. “You’ve let an exceptionally good opportunity slip away just now.”
12
你丫上瘾了? However, Bai Luo Yin seemed like he wasn’t particularly interested, “What opportunity?” “See it by yourself.” Bai Luo Yin lifted his eyes, then he shifted his gaze towards the homeroom teacher’s face for a moment. This teacher held one of the highest positions in the school. She was extremely beautiful and every time the school attained a successful achievement, it was merely because she was the representative. Every male student looked forward to become her student. “If I were you, I’ll definitely take advantage of my lateness and apologize to her. Get close and chum up to her.” “If you smash the table, she will take the initiative to come and befriend you.” The male student merely simpered for a moment before replying, “I won’t dare to do that.” At that moment, Bai Luo Yin finally understood what Yang Meng meant by a pleasant surprise. It turns out that it’s this female teacher. Truth to tell, Bai Luo Yin is not interested in mature, beautiful woman. Not to mention, bears remarkable resemblance to his mother. When Bai Luo Yin was tidying up his things, one of his ballpoints fell to the ground. And during the moment Bai Luo Yin bended his waist to pick up the pen, he accidentally found out that the male student in front of him was also wearing slippers to school. Not only that, but he also combined it with a pair of baggy pants. Wow, he
can be really flashy if he wants to be flashy. “Students.” Once the sexy red lips opened, the whole class immediately went incredibly silent that you could even hear the sound of a pin dropping. This applies especially to the male animals. At this very moment, they wouldn’t even dare to exhale a single breath. “I’m your homeroom teacher. My name is Luo Xiao Yu and this is my phone number.” The homeroom teacher faced away from the class to write her phone number at the blackboard, “I’ve never announced my phone number to the other classes before. So, you guys should be honored.” Thunderous applause resounded through the classroom. There were only two students who didn’t jot down this phone number. One of them was Bai Luo Yin. In fact, he is also the most brilliant one, because this phone number will never went through no matter what. But of course, that is another story to be told later. 13
Are you Addicted? The students took turns to come up and introduce themselves. When it was finally the turn of that guy wearing baggy pants and slippers, Bai Luo Yin especially paid close attention to him. “I’m from Tianjin, my name is You Qi [1].” Bai Luo Yin was still waiting for him to speak his name, yet this person had already walked away in fashionable manner. Bai Luo Yin stared, dumbfounded for a moment before he secretly grumbled, “‘My name is special?’ What’s wrong with your name? You haven’t told us, but you’ve already walked away!” However, when Bai Luo Yin lifted his head, he just realized that the two words written on the blackboard were “You Qi”.
Apparently, his name is “You Qi”. Bai Luo Yin immediately face palmed. Luckily for him, no one heard him mumbling to himself just now. ------[1] ‘my name is You Qi’: You Qi also means ‘special’ and Bai Luo Yin thought that his name is special.

Chapter 8 : How do you read this word? Translated by: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"This is your classmates' name cards. Follow the location and the order, then write the seating list. Give it to me after school" Bai Luo Yin silently took it, and then he wrote the names one by one. The boys beside Bai Luo Yin looked at him with admiring glances. This is just the second day of school, and the teacher had already asked him to help her to do things, why? Actually for Bai Luo Yin, this is already his habit. Every time he enter a new class, the teacher will always ask him to write the seating list because his writing is beautiful. Of course, his face is also as beautiful as his writing. "Gao Chao, Wang Jian, Wei Ze Long, Gu Xin, Fang Xiao Shi..." Bai Luo Yin wrote the names one by one on the paper. But when he picked up the fourth paper before it finished, and he was stunned. "Gu.... Ke? It can’t be." "Gu... Mu? Who would be called by that name!" "Gu... Lang? It’s not right.." After being in a confused state for nearly a minute, Bai Luo Yin finally tapped You Qi's shoulder. "Hey, do you know how to read this word?" You Qi held the card with one hand, while his index finger on the other hand touched his nose, thinking in silence with a cool attitude. A few seconds later, he sneezed, before taking out a tissue to blow his nose. After that, he merely said, "Why is it similar with a celebrity's sign?" "I really hate this kind of person!" Actually, after doing this for many years, Bai Luo Yin could read every kind of writing styles. He could even recognize all random words. But, what he hates most is someone who pretends to be cool and completely changes the font structure, which makes him unable to read the characters at all.
15
Are you Addicted? "You can just go there and ask him. His seat number is written on the card. Just go find him and finish it already!" This type of person is the last person Bai Luo Yin want to involve with in his whole life. Bai Luo Yin walked over to Gu Hai’s seat and he picked up all the books on Gu Hai's desk that has his name one by one. However, every single name on the textbooks was written with the same autograph font. Meanwhile, Gu Hai was looking down at his book. But then, someone suddenly stole his book from him. Bai Luo Yin calmly turned his book to page one. There is Gu Hai's name, but it’s also written in the same style. The style that he couldn't read nor understand. "What do you want?" A low voice could be heard faintly. Bai Luo Yin looked at Gu Hai and said, "I’m writing the seating list, give me your name." "Gu Hai." Bai Luo Yin was distracted for a moment, before he replied lightly. "If you're a human then write like a human!" Gu Hai was slightly annoyed. Those kind of harsh words, no one would dare to say it to him, except his father. One of the main reason is because, over the past ten years, he has always been getting along with others because of his status. But now, he had become an ordinary citizen.
Actually, getting insulted once in a while doesn’t feel that bad. This word is Hai? Bai Luo Yin anxiously stared at his paper. How can this word be Hai? It’s not even close! A little bit annoyed, Bai Luo Yin returned to his seat as he wrote the name on the paper.

Chapter 9: Actually, you really can eat! Translated by: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bai Luo Yin copied the seating list for 57 people, and then he gave them to his classmates one by one. When Gu Hai received the paper, he didn't put it on his desk directly, but instead, he stared at it for quite a while. Gu Wei Ting taught Gu Hai since he was small, that a person's handwriting would accurately show that person's character and accomplishments. Bai Luo Yin's handwriting is strong and vigorous, yet yesterday he said some harsh words to him. It really is different.
Could it be that it was because of my bad attitude? Gu Hai wanted to test him. When the bell rang, Gu Hai took his seating list, walked straight to the seat in front Bai Luo Yin's desk, which was You Qi's seat. He just sat there as he watched Bai Luo Yin quietly. Bai Luo Yin was in hurry doing his homework, and he had no time to look up, so he simply ignored Gu Hai's stare at him. One minute later, Gu Hai opened his mouth. "This handwriting is yours, right?" Just with this one sentence from Gu Hai, Bai Luo Yin’s brain, that was thinking hard, was immediately interrupted. He held his ruler, as his anger had reached its limit, then hit Gu Hai's head with the ruler. "Do you have anything else to say? If no, then don't give me any more trouble!" Gu Hai looked at Bai Luo Yin's face again. It’s true, his face really matches his
handwriting. It doesn't simply belong just to anyone. There is a certain characteristic to it. If you only look at his individual facial features, it doesn't really come out. But if you see it all together as a whole, his face is truly unique. Bai Luo Yin didn't even realize that Gu Hai was looking at him, not even the slightest as he was still struggling with his homework. And then, Gu Hai suddenly pointed to his book and said, "I know how to do this question." Bai Luo Yin grabbed Gu Hai's hand, and pushed it off his desk. 17
Are you Addicted? "Thank you, I can do it myself!" When his hand was strongly pushed, Gu Hai's face slightly darkened. When he looked at his hand, it was all red. "Pick up my ruler." That is an ordering tone that Bai Luo Yin said to Gu Hai. Gu Hai didn't move an inch. "Why are you so difficult? Didn't I ask you to pick up the ruler? Can’t you be a bit faster?" Gu Hai picked up the ruler, and respectfully gave it back to Bai Luo Yin's hand. The bell signalling the end of the class rang. Gu Hai went back to his own seat, holding a piece of paper that he tore out from Bai Luo Yin's homework. He was feeling full to the brim, it enough for him to appreciate it. After school, You Qi put away his things. He turned his head to Bai Luo Yin and said "Let’s go eat!" "I’m not a boarder. I'll go home and eat there." Bai Luo Yin went outside, and You Qi walked to keep up with him. "Today's my treat. Let's go to the cafeteria to eat." Bai Luo Yin felt uneasy and said, "Can you choose better place to treat me! School cafeteria? Do you have something against me?" But when he remembered Bai Han Qi's cooked food, he finally agreed to eat. Along the way, You Qi always maintained his cool image, he doesn't like wearing uniform, so he only wore plaid shirt. Furthermore, he always unbutton the two top buttons, exposing half of his chest. Bai Luo Yin also found out, that You Qi always bring headphones even when he's on the street. And when someone greets him, he will pretend as if he doesn’t hear it. But whenever Bai Luo Yin said a word that annoyed him, he always lost his temper. So Bai Luo Yin always suspected that the headphone You Qi is wearing is not even plugged into anything. "I think you're really cold-hearted." Bai Luo Yin thought he heard him wrong, "Am I as cold-hearted as you are?" "I'm just pretending to be like this," You Qi suddenly grinned. "But you are really coldhearted. From inside your bones, you give this kind of don't get close to me feeling" 18
你丫上瘾了? "Don't say those bitter words to me." You Qi didn't say anything. When no one is around, he pulled out a tissue to blow his nose. Bai Luo Yin looked at him and said, "Do you have rhinitis?" You Qi was astonished. "So you can see it too." "If I can’t even see it, then I must be blind." You Qi blew his nose no less than five times in each class, and then after class ended, he always left his seat. When Bai Luo Yin lifted up his eyes, he will always see so many used tissue inside his desk drawer. Don’t want to think about it because it makes him more nauseated, Bai Luo Yin forced himself to turn his attention somewhere else, or alse he would have no appetite to eat later. "How can you eat this much?!" You Qi could only gape at the plates on the table. He felt like he was seeing Wu Song[1]. Two meals, eight buns, a bowl of fried shredded pancake, three burgers, plus one plate of cold noodle and one plate of dumplings. All these food are only Bai Luo Yin's share. "This is enough? I’m still hungry!" You Qi broke into cold sweat. He had always wanted to lose weight. Because his legs were a little bit thick, it didn’t look good at him when he wore pants. He was always jealous with Bai Luo Yin, because he was not too fat and not too thin. Just right. And now that he saw Bai Luo Yin ate so many things but he still stayed fit, he's truly jealous of him. "Do you usually exercise?" You Qi started to learn about him. Bai Luo Yin ate the remaining food on his plate, wiped his mouth, and said, "Except walking to school, I don't really exercise much." "You’re really scary. Then, where did all those things you just ate went to?" Bai Luo Yin pointed to his stomach, "You have to ask him. I don't know." You Qi walked sluggishly, his heart is really upset. He regretted treating Bai Luo Yin for a lunch. His meal card had maxed out. Today he can't go to canteen to eat anymore.
19
Are you Addicted? "Friend, can I borrow your meal card? When I went out, I forgot to bring it with me." Someone said with innocent and miserable eyes. You Qi picked his meal card with his two fingers, and he simply gave it to him. "Here, just use it. And you don't need to return it to me." _________________________ [1] Wu Song is a fictional character from "Water Margin" that's well known for beating a tiger with bare hand

Chapter 10: I'll skin him alive! Translated by: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Bai Luo Yin, come out for a moment." It was during self-study period when Bai Luo Yin was called out by the Chinese literature teacher. "I don't know what kind of opinion you had towards me, or towards the homework that I gave to you. Even if you really have a suggestion, you can voice it directly, there's no need to play jokes with me. At first, my impression towards you was very good, but the way you do things this time truly disappoints me." Bai Luo Yin was at a total loss as to why he was being scolded. "Could you please explain to me what is going on?" The Chinese literature teacher threw an essay book at Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin opened the book and saw that the pages were empty, the only essay he did had been ripped by another person. He carefully recalled for a moment, he wrote the essay precisely according to the teacher's requirement, although his composition was just so-so, but it didn't mean that his work had to be ripped off and to the point of being scolded by her. "Explain, what do you mean by submitting an empty exercise book?" "An empty book?" This one sentence caused Bai Luo Yin's expression to turn blank and speechless in a flash. The Chinese literature teacher was livid, "Don't play pretend with me, I have taught for so many years, what kind of trickery that I have not seen? Go back, write the essay and make another self-introspection letter." "It's not..." Bai Luo Yin briefly showed his anxiety, "Miss, I really wrote the essay, I don't know who had ripped it off." The Chinese literature teacher slowly turned her head, sizing up Bai Luo Yin for a long time with an eerie expression on her eyes, "So, you are saying that I am the one who tore your essay?" "No, that's not what I mean!"
21
Are you Addicted? "You may not join the next Chinese literature class, stay outside and reflect upon yourself until you understand!" Bai Luo Yin stood motionless. The teacher spun her head and seethed once again, "Don't think that I am easy to be bullied!!" Who is being bullied by whom? Bai Luo Yin secretly grinded his own teeth, that son of a bitch, if I ever caught the asshole who tore my homework, I'll definitely skin him alive! Gu Hai, along with his two brothers, was eating together at a hotpot restaurant located on the main street outside Chongwenmen. Both of them were his childhood friends, the three of them grew up together in a military compound, they had stuck together like birds of a feather for more than ten years. "Your father really hasn't searched for you in the past few days?" "Nope." "Ouch, your father is able to stay calm enough this time." Gu Hai snickered loudly, fiddling with the wine cup in his hands, and neutrally said, "How could he stay calm, he absolutely couldn't handle me from the start. As far as I know, he had wanted me to leave since the beginning. It's just that he is too selfconscious to drive me off." "In any case, you are his only son, so it is unlikely that he is that ruthless towards you?" Li Shuo poured another cup of wine for Gu Hai. The three of them toasted their cups and then downed the entire cup in one gulp. "You just realized he was that ruthless? Do you remember, if I talked back to him when I was young, he would hang me on the roof beams and whip me? If not because of my mom, I would not exist today." Zhou Shihu nodded his head constantly, "Since I was small, I always feel nervous whenever I saw you father." "That's right, last time you said that there's someone who sabotaged your plans and stole all the equipment away, have you caught that person?" Regarding this matter, Gu Hai was so furious that his teeth itched so badly. "I found those stolen equipment at a second-hand goods market, but since the seller used fake ID cards it was more difficult to be investigated. However, there was a more troublesome thing to be investigated, I'd like to know the person who have the guts to rob my things." Li Shuo laughed and shook his head, "This person is in a big trouble." 22
你丫上瘾了? Zhou Shihu, while placing the meat inside the hotpot, faced Gu Hai and asked, "I heard that woman also has a son, have you ever seen him?" "It would be the best if I never caught a sight of him." Li Shuo mockingly laughed, "You are not afraid that one day he would do better than you?" Gu Hai whirled towards Li Shuo, his gaze cold and sharp, nearly freezing the steaming hot beef slices inside Li Shuo's bowl. Zhou Shihu slapped Li Shuo's shoulder while grinning broadly to smooth things over, "All right, that's enough, quit talking about these useless things. Quickly eat."

Chapter 11: Sending you a bag of toilet paper Translated by: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Bai Luo Yin!" Bai Luo Yin rotated his head and saw Dong Na, an upperclassman. She smiled gently like a flower, her footsteps forming a figure 8, walking back and forth in front of Class 27 while eyeing someone inside. "I have a question to ask you." Bai Luo Yin swept a glance at Dong Na, "Say it." "Who is the handsome guy in your class, sitting two rows from the back?" "There are more than one guy sitting two rows from the back, how would I know which one you are talking about?" Dong Na looked around more carefully, then secretly move closer to Bai Luo Yin's ear, whispering "It's that handsome boy who always wear a plaid shirt, and likes to listen to music with his earphones. All the girls in our class think that he is very cool." Bai Luo Yin already knew which student Dong Na was talking about, but he couldn't seem to remember You Qi's charming traits that she mentioned before. He could only think of a drawer full of used tissues. "Say, if I chase after him, will he accept me? Look at my pretty looks, is there any hope?" Bai Luo Yin wanted to go home and eat as soon as possible, so he hastily replied, "Yeah, there is." "Really?" Dong Na tugged at Bai Luo Yin stubbornly, "Then you tell me what does he like? I noticed that both of you stick together every day." Bai Luo Yin pushed Dong Na's hands away from his arm, telling her honestly, "You just need to send him a big pack of toilet paper. Remember, not a roll, but a big pack." After finished speaking, Bai Luo Yin promptly strode over to the staircase. Dong Na shouted from behind, "Is it the pack with 12 rolls or 10 rolls?" Bai Luo Yin almost rolled down the stairs.
24
你丫上瘾了? Yang Meng eagerly chased Bai Luo Yin from behind, hooked his hands on Bai Luo Yin's shoulder while laughing cheerfully. "Today, our class organized a voting for the prettiest girl in the class. From the voting result, there are five female students with similar number of votes and they are all good-looking. I'd say the prettiest girl is the one who has a mole at the outer corner of her left eye..." Bai Luo Yin's deadly gaze had been constantly following the cracks on the red-bricked wall. Yang Meng pushed him with one hand, "Are you listening to what I'm saying?" "Yes I do, you said your grandmother have bought a pound of green persimmons." Yang Meng slapped his own forehead in exasperation (facepalmed), those words just now were complete bullshit. Seeing that Bai Luo Yin still had that blank look on his face, he tentatively asked, "Are you thinking about Shi Hui jie?" Upon hearing these two words, Bai Luo Yin's eyes flashed instantly. "It's not that." "Then, what is it?" After a long time, Bai Luo Yin opened his mouth and revealed, "I'm trying to figure out who tore out my essay paper." Gu Hai's temporary rented house was 120 meter square big, which consist of one bedroom and one bathroom only. Meanwhile, the remaining space was filled with sports equipment. Gu Hai was purely forced by Gu Weiting to exercise. He had trained with the army ever since he was 5 years old. After departing from the army, he developed an obsessive-compulsive disorder. If he did not work out daily, it would give the same feeling as eating less than two meals in a day. Two hundred push-ups were finished easily, followed by an hour of high-speed treadmill routine, and lastly, hitting a sandbag brutally. He was thoroughly thrilled when hitting the sandbag, picturing it as Gu Weiting, Jiang Yuan, and also the stepbrother that he had never seen before. By the time he finished working out, it was already past 8 PM. Gu Hai stretched his hand towards his schoolbag and fished out a piece of essay paper. After admiring it for some time, Gu Hai used a strip of scotch tape to stick it on top of the writing table. Next, he took out a piece of thin paper, placed it on top of the essay paper and started to trace the words.
25
Are you Addicted? He was extremely fond of this handwriting, it was different from the standardized regular script but it was not the semi-cursive script either. Bai Luo Yin personally created this style, it's just like a person who could extend his four limbs freely and unrestrained, while still possessing a dynamic and unyielding strength. The next morning, You Qi entered the classroom from the backdoor, casually tossing his schoolbag on top of the desk as usual. That particular, nonchalant action caused a big bag of toilet paper to fall down to the floor. Beneath the bag of tissue was a small piece of paper, but then it slipped out along with the bag of tissue, drifting in the air before finally landing on Bai Luo Yin's desk. The classmates around saw this incident and secretly laughed behind their backs, not expecting that You Qi could make a mistake by bringing so much toilet paper. You Qi ignored the stares around him and picked up the toilet paper instead. When he could not fit it all inside his drawer, he put it down next to his chair. Once he turned his back around, he noticed the small piece of paper on top of the table behind him. "This is for you." You Qi was stunned for a moment, Bai Luo Yin give this to me? Why is he giving me toilet paper? He stared at his own drawer, speechless for a while. He finally understood, Bai Luo Yin saw his drawer which was filled with used tissues on a daily basis, realized that he did not have enough tissues and especially bought it for him. Alright, this guy is normally very cold-hearted, but in reality his heart is very warm. Twenty minutes into the self-study period, Bai Luo Yin entered the classroom. In the middle of the whole class' attention, he slowly walked towards the last empty seat, taking his English textbook and preparing to recite the lesson outside the classroom. This was the school's regulation, where every student who came late must stand outside the classroom. A week since school started, Bai Luo Yin had never attended the self-study period in the class. "Hey!" You Qi called Bai Luo Yin, a bag of toilet paper in his hand, "Thanks!" Bai Luo Yin was surprised, this girl is really stupid that she actually bought it. "I'm not the one who bought it, don't thank me." You Qi grinned madly, "What's there to be embarrassed of? It's not like you gave me a bag of tampons!" "Fuck you!"

Chapter 12: Why is he always sleeping? Translated by: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Since You Qi received a bag of toilet paper, it was as if he was possessed. Before, he blew his nose many times in a day, but now it's getting more and more ridiculous. He could even use one roll of toilet paper in one day. And every time after he blew his nose, he turned his head around and smiled, just like a little girl and her puppy love. Bai Luo Yin couldn't stand it anymore. Even with his 1.80m height, and face like Takeshi Kaneshiro, You Qi was just plain stupid. "I said it already, I wasn't the one who bought that toilet papers for you. Could you please stop doing this to me?" You Qi ignored him, he just blew his nose even more. Finally, Bai Luo Yin felt like he had no choice but to accept it, and without raising his head, he finished his work early. His upper and lower eyelids began to shut. He laid his head on his desk and fell asleep. No one would dare to wake him up. Half of the class girl students were interested in You Qi. And the remaining half were just nerds. They just played games all day, talked with each other, no one even noticed that Bai Luo Yin was sleeping. But of course, everything had an exception. There was one person who was doing nothing. This person did everything swiftly. If other students needed two classes to finish the homework, he only needs half an hour to get it done. You Qi was always moving to the left and then to the right. Naturally, when Gu Hai looked at that direction, Gu Hai would look straight past him. So, the first thing Gu Hai see is not You Qi. But Bai Luo Yin. He is sleeping again? Gu Hai was really wondering, what did Bai Luo Yin do every night? How can he always stay sleepy? Is he really sleeping, or just pretending to sleep? If he was really sleeping, then how can he get the answer right every time he was called by the teacher? "Who are you looking at?" A voice can be heard from before him.
27
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai's eyes went from Bai Luo Yin to the girl in front of him. This girl's appearance was exquisite, her voice sweet. Her accent is a mix of Hongkong and Taiwan, certainly giving goosebumps. "Do you know him?" Gu Hai pointed at Bai Luo Yin. Xiao Xuan looked at Gu Hai. "Who doesn't know him? He was the most handsome guy in our class. I asked him out, but it's a pity he didn't fall for me. I'll tell you this, he is an extraordinary person, moreover he is really clever, later you will learn about him slowly." A single sentence from Xiao Xuan, certainly made Gu Hai interested. "Then, does he always sleep too since before?" "Of course! Every day he is always sleeping, before and after class. And I'll tell you a secret, do not tell anyone. Bai Luo Yin doesn't have mother." When Guhai heard that, he felt as if his heart was pierced and he felt hurt. No mother, for a child not to know what it feels like to be in a mother's arms, it's a tragedy. "Are you feeling hot? I noticed that you're sweating." Xiao Xuan picked up a small fan, with a beautiful posture she started to fan Gu Hai, causing the boys around them to cough. Gu Hai just stared at that group of boys, and suddenly they all went silent. After class was finished, Gu Hai walked to Bai Luo Yin's desk, he looked at where Bai Luo Yin put his stationery. There was a pen, and water-based pen, there was also a calligraphy pen, which was usually used for practice. Fifty cents bottle of writing ink, he used it pretty fast. He did not use ruler with scales, he just wore a simple stationery bag. Inside his drawer, there was his backpack, full of stitches everywhere with every colours, it looked really obvious. After school, a military car parked quietly in front of the school, not far away from a large tree. This place was not supposed to be a parking place, but the car's license number had a symbol of the region's highest authority. Forget parking under a tree, even if he parked on top of the tree, no one would even dare to complain. "I told you many times, do not pick me up from school. I'll take a cab by myself." Gu Hai's patience was running thin. The driver just smiled and nodded, "Are you not afraid of accident? The traffic around here is really dangerous, the taxi drivers always drive poorly, what if they trick you? Come, let's get inside." 28
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai glanced toward the school gate, and he caught a glimpse of someone. He quickly walked across the road before his driver could react, and stopped a taxi.

"Master, excuse me, could you go a little slower?" The taxi driver hastily replied, "Do you still want me to go slower? Just look at this speed meter, how much slower do you want?" "Just follow behind that guy in front of us, the one wearing blue uniform, just following him is enough." The taxi driver snapped, "Are you going to trouble me for half a day just to drive you along this street? Are you deliberately trying to torment me? My taxi's fare is based on kilometer, not the time. If I wasted half a day just to drive for a mile, what good would it be for me?" Gu Hai took out 200 dollars, and then he threw it directly to the driver. The taxi's driver attitude then calmed down a bit. "Young man, like I said, if you wanted to track him on the street, why don't you just go down and walk? Or find some motorcycle, it's way cheaper. You spent 200 dollars just to walk a few steps, don't you think it's a waste of money?" "Walking would be easily discovered. Quick! He turned at the corner." When he arrived at the street where Bai Luo Yin lived, Gu Hai went down from the car. There were rows of old and shabby houses, which really did not belongs with the high rise buildings around it. Gu Hai quickly judged that these kind of houses would be soon demolished. Those uncles and aunts who lived down this street, would soon lose their warm nest, because it would be unlikely for the government to meet them and buy anyone's house here. He went down the street, then he see that Bai Luo Yin went into a yard. He looked at his watch, fifty minutes passed already. Now he understood why Bai Luo Yin was always late. Gu Hai observed Bai Luo Yin's family condition, he probably didn't even have bicycle. Bai Luo Yin went into his house, put down his bag on his messy bed, took off his uniform, and then just went to the kitchen topless. He opened the rice cooker, stared at it for a while, then shouted towards Bai Han Qi who was in the yard. 30
你丫上瘾了? "Didn't you say you're going to cook porridge? How can it become rice?" Bai Han Qi smacked his head, showing regret. "I just went outside for a while to do the laundry, I forgot that I am cooking porridge, it was cooked for too long so it became rice." When Gu Hai arrived at the door, Bai Luo Yin poured water on his bowl of rice, then he mixed it to become a porridge. He drank a sip then another sip, beside him was only a plate of pickles. After he finished eating, Bai Luo Yin took his bowl and went inside. Not too long after, he went out again and saw Bai Han Qi was doing the laundry, then angrily threw a pair of underwear to him. "This is a clean underwear right? How can you wash it? I have three underwears, you threw one into the sink, I'm wearing one right now, and this last one you just washed it for me even though it's clean. Now what am I going to wear tomorrow?" Bai Han Qi was stunned for a moment, then he rubbed his hands on his clothes to dry them and said, "Dad will go buy it for you" "No need." Bai Luo Yin grabbed his dad. "I will just wear this. Tomorrow it should have dried already." Gu Hai just looked at the father and son in amusement. When he went back to his home, Gu Hai didn't call a cab, he just ran to his home, also to exercise his body. His mind went through what he just saw earlier today, the mess in those two's daily life. Actually, he came here for three reasons. One, to find out why Bai Luo Yin was always late. Second, to see how was Bai Luo Yin's daily life. And third, because he has nothing to do. Now he accomplished all of his objectives, but there is an unexpected thing happened. This man, he wanted to be his friend.

Chapter 14: Two People in a Pinch Translated by: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next morning, Bai Luo Yin was still late, he put away his bag, and then he saw a box inside his drawer. He took it out to see it clearly and quickly put it back into the drawer again. What happened? Who put a pair of underwear into my drawer? Just yesterday, a girl gave You Qi toilet papers, and now he received a pair of underwear. Could it be that someone mistakenly placed this inside my drawer? A piece of paper dismissed Bai Luo Yin's thoughts. "It's for you." It's the same three words, just like yesterday. He threw the underwear to You Qi's table. "Aren't you disgusting?" You Qi was taking a nap, laying on his table and suddenly felt that his head was hit by something. He looked up to see and he found out it was a pair of underwear. "Xiao Bai, you look cold outside but you're so passionate inside, huh? Yesterday you gave me toilet paper and now you gave me this." "Shut up." Bai Luo Yin cursed at him, then he picked up a book and went outside. Gu Hai saw all that happened, he couldn't help but smile. That kid would rather wear wet underwear, rather than receiving a little help. He really has strong character. The wet underwear that Bai Luo Yin wore, of course caused him to have diarrhea. In three classes, he had gone to the toilet for seven times. The eighth time, Bai Luo Yin was so embarrassed. He did not return to the classroom, and he just squat outside the class for half an hour, waiting until the break.
32
你丫上瘾了? He packed away his things, then Bai Luo Yin heard his stomach growling. He hated Bai Han Qi, since he was small until he's adult, he has to suffer many times because of Bai Han Qi's negligence. Bai Luo Yin took a deep breath, he was ready to leave, when suddenly something fell onto the floor. Bai Luo Yin saw a box of medicine, it's a medicine for diarrhea. These kind of things, why is it here? Bai Luo Yin was confused again, but he knew that it wasn't You Qi who gave him the medicine, because You Qi didn't even come out from class, he didn't go to the infirmary too, so it's also impossible for him to know about his diarrhea, let alone preparing the medicine beforehand?
Now that he thought about the underwear earlier, Bai Luo Yin felt weird. You couldn't buy underwear at school, so that ruled out the possibility that a boarder bought it, that meant You Qi also wasn't the one. Then thinking about it again, if a girl openly sent this to me, in order to express their love, and deliberately giving this to tease him... It can't be.. How can there be coincidences like this? Yesterday, I don't have any more underwear to wear, and this morning I just found out I have to wear wet underpants. Because I wore wet underpants, I got diarrhea and then this box of diarrhea medicine appeared here, as if it was prepared in advance. Then it must be... Bai Luo Yin slammed his bag on his desk, asked in a cold voice, "Yesterday, who followed me home?" There were only few people left in the class, but he knew that person must be somewhere inside, watching his every move. Gu Hai was stunned. He didn't think that Bai Luo Yin would be this smart. Just with a box of underwear and a box of diarrhea medicine, Bai Luo Yin knew that someone followed him home yesterday. "Don't joke with me!" Bai Luo Yin was angry, he threw the medicine box until it hit the wall and bounced off. Gu Hai then grabbed him. "Me." 33
Are you Addicted? Just a single word, came out from Gu Hai's mouth. He walked toward Bai Luo Yin, each step strong, not even a slightest hesitation like young people of his age. "I don't have any other intention. I only want to care about you. And I want to apologize for what I did to you." Gu Hai smiled and then gave the medicine to Bai Luo Yin. "Just because of your two shitty words?" Up until now, Gu Hai's weird handwriting style has always been on Bai Luo Yin's mind. Since that day, Gu Hai had this extreme impression for him. Even after he heard Gu Hai's answer, he still felt uneasy. Bai Luo Yin looked at Gu Hai with eyes full of displeasure. "Of course no," Gu Hai answered calmly. "It's because I ripped your homework, because I wanted to learn your handwriting." Five seconds later, Bai Luo Yin's voice echoed inside the classroom. "Fuck you!" No words could express Bai Luo Yin's anger for Gu Hai. Just because of that essay, he had to stand outside for a week in every language class. And now, the culprit was standing before him, confessed what he did so easily, not feeling guilty at all, and his face was not even red, not even embarrassed. Bai Luo Yin grabbed Gu Hai's collar and pushed him into the corner. "Why did you tear my essay out of the nowhere? Why didn't you tell me before? Are you looking for a fight?" "Because I admired your handwriting, you should be happy about it." Bai Luo Yin quickly lost his temper. But, now he couldn't even feel mad, couldn't even shout. He just wanted to do one thing. Punch him. Gu Hai grabbed Bai Luo Yin's shoulder,and he gave him an expression as if Bai Luo Yin was lower than him. "Okay, okay. I apologized to you already. Don't drag this any longer." Bai Luo Yin took a few deep breaths, pointed at Gu Hai's nose and said, "I have never seen a person as shameless as you." Gu Hai pointed his finger at Bai Luo Yin's forehead. "I have never met anyone who could make me apologize like this." 34
你丫上瘾了? "Pei!" A single word came out from Bai Luo Yin's mouth. Gu Hai, with his strong build and tall body leaning on the door, his eyes looked at Bai Luo Yin full of determination. Smiling in his heart.
Do not worry. We aren't finished yet.

Chapter 15: To me, this is what a cow looks like! Translated by: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Miss, I want to switch seats." Luo Xiao Yu 's crystalline eyes flashed, shifting her body towards Gu Hai and stared at him face to face, her smile was gentle and soft just like water. "You want to move to the front?" "No." "Then, you want to move to the back?" "Also no." Luo Xiao Yu's expression was filled with curiosity, similar to an angel that had fallen into the human world. Gu Hai's heart pounded for a split second, but it quickly reverted back to its tranquil state. "I want to move my seat up to the south." "It's like this." Luo Xiao Yu explained patiently, "The seating positions are rearranged once every two weeks. In other words, in two days, your row will move from the northernmost to the southernmost." "That's not what I meant," Gu Hai expressed firmly, "I want to switch to the seat behind Bai Luo Yin." "Switch to the seat behind Bai Luo Yin?" Luo Xiao Yu was not convinced. Gu Hai laughed, "I have a good relationship with him, so I will be more motivated in studying if I sit near him." Luo Xiao Yu seemed to be a bit puzzled. Normally, students would request to switch seats because of problems such as height issues, grades issues or to separate the female and male students... "You go back first, I'll consider the seating conditions." "Do it right now." Gu Hai insisted, "I want to switch seats right away." Luo Xiao Yu's face gradually turned red, her lips trembling. She was clearly displeased with Gu Hai's attitude. This was because no one in the whole school had dared to speak to her like this. However, she couldn't unleash her bad temper. 36
你丫上瘾了? "Fine, you can switch seats immediately in the afternoon." Not long after Gu Hai left, a male student with bowlegs and acne all over his face entered the office. He stopped in front of Luo Xiao Yu with a bitter face. "Miss, can I request a seat exchange? Zhang Dawei keeps on kicking my chair until I fell down. I've fallen three times already." "Then, why don't you warn him not to kick your chair?" Luo Xiao Yu's tone started to get higher, her expression changing faster than Bolt's sprint. "Switching seats! You think switching seats is a simple thing? Could you not hurt my feelings in the process?" He didn't know why, but when the beautiful teacher becomes angry, she was still charming. Thus, the male student couldn't resist to say a few words. "Miss, I'm begging you, please let me move a row backwards, and that's enough for me." Luo Xiao Yu was well-known for her bad temper. Usually, beautiful and smart women were able to marry a rich husband, and naturally, their bad temper was by no means a trivial thing. "Say one more word, and I will expel you out of my class at once." Two seconds later, the male student walked out from the teacher's office dejectedly. In the afternoon, Bai Luo Yin was about to enter the classroom when he saw a repulsive person sitting on the seat behind him. He cursed fiercely inside while maintaining a cool façade as he returned to his seat. When the class was about to start, Bai Luo Yin noticed that Gu Hai had yet to budge. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore, "Why are you not returning to your seat?" "I've switched seats, this is my seat now." Gu Hai smiled pleasantly. Bai Luo Yin's face turned dark, akin to the bottom of pot, not even concealing his own displeasure in the slightest degree. He was the type of person who knows whom to love and whom to hate, if he disliked a person then he would rather shot his own head than listing their good points. When the school bell rang, Bai Luo Yin turned his body forward and told himself not to pay any attention to Gu Hai. Just imagine that the person behind is a dunghill. "Students, take out your exam papers from yesterday, today we will discuss the topic." "Hey..." Gu Hai used his fingers to flick at Bai Luo Yin, "Say, your white vest was ripped right here, why did you use a black thread to stitch it?" 37
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin replied nonchalantly, "This is called cow!" "Cow?" "Isn't the body of a cow covered in black and white patterns?" "..." Gu Hai laughed, this guy's retorts was very hilarious. But, how could it be called cow just because of a single black pattern? Many black patterns were needed for it to be called so. Hence, Gu Hai took out a small pair of scissors, taking advantage of Bai Luo Yin when he was sleeping to cut a lot of hole on his vest. When he was on the way home, Bai Luo Yin withdrew his own neck, his heart puzzled as to why his vest was not as warm as usual on this particular day. "Da Hai, are you working out?" Gu Hai plugged the earphones into his ear, allowing both of his hands to hold a needle and string of black thread. He was trying to insert the thread to the hole of the needle. "I am threading a needle." "Threading a needle?" Jin Lulu laughed loudly, "After you left home, even no one is available to sew your clothing. You poor young master." Finally, he had successfully inserted the thread to the needle. Gu Hai was extremely proud, his face a portrait of unrestrained evil. "I'm not sewing for myself." A thunderous sound could be heard from the other end of the line. "Then, who are you sewing for?" Gu Hai lowered the volume of his earphone, his voice neutral, "What are you shouting at? It's not like I'm sewing for a girl. Quit asking, you wouldn't understand anyway." Jin Lulu thought reasonably, how could a bad-tempered person like Gu Hai sew for a girl? If he saw a boy tying a girl's shoelaces on the street, he can scold them right away. It's better not to mention this kind of useless things. "Da Hai, I missed you, come visit me at Tianjin[1] during this weekend." Gu Hai placed his needlework down, took off his shoes neatly and climbed into the bed. "Okay." _________________________ [1] Tianjin is a major port city and one of the five national central cities of China. It located in coastal

Chapter 16: You dare to challenge me? Translated by: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day, Bai Luo Yin came late again. Gu Hai stole a glance at his uniform, it was the same one as yesterday, and thus it was not stitched yet. Gu Hai was bold enough to cut holes into Bai Luo Yin's uniform because he understood the extent of sloppiness in Bai household. He knew that Bai Luo Yin probably didn't take off his clothes and directly went to sleep in his uniform instead. Great, now everything is already prepared, all that's left is the east wind [1]. Nevertheless, it's a pity that the east wind does not blow smoothly today. Gu Hai kept on staring at Bai Luo Yin, waiting for him to fall asleep. But Bai Luo Yin was wide-awake that day. He was very energetic throughout two classes and his back was straight just like a piece of wood. Come on, fall asleep... Gu Hai chanted repeatedly in his mind. Finally, nearing the end of the second period, Bai Luo Yin's back slumped a bit and gradually leaned on the table. Gu Hai waited silently. Right when Bai Luo Yin's whole body had stopped moving, he extended his hands. "Ring ring ring..." The class had ended, Gu Hai grinded his teeth and withdrew his hand with a heavy heart. The third period was physical education, Gu Hai temporarily placed the thread and needle into his drawer, saving it for the fourth period. Their school employed a new physical education teacher, this teacher was a retiree from the army. He carried a taint of fearless and presumptuous aura. Just as the class began, he swore and scolded the entire class because of their standing posture, calling them a bunch of spineless cowards. "You, quick line up the students." The PE teacher appointed Ti Wei. When Ti Wei shouted the order, the PE teacher immediately howled, "You haven't eaten yet?" Ti Wei felt wronged, "I have eaten, but I am still hungry."
40
你丫上瘾了? The whole class laughed. The PE teacher took a step back, I am instructing you and you actually have the audacity to grin cheekily at me! "Go back to your position, I will appoint a new person." With a look of disdain, he walked past every single student until the end of the line. His eyes finally rested on a person whose stance was completely different from other students. This student concealed expression implied aggressiveness and looking at his figure and posture, he would definitely become the PE teacher's successor. "You, come out here." Gu Hai walked forward and carried himself valiantly with an impressive demeanor. The face of the PE teacher finally showed satisfaction. "Shout twice, I will listen." Gu Hai shot a glance at the PE teacher and noticed that he was an insufferably arrogant type of person. As if shouting twice would give you a reputation, even if you don't tell me to shout, the flowers would still wither away, just like my opinion towards you. "Orders are not meant to be shouted. If you do not have the trust of the people, they would not listen to you even though you shout until your throat bleeds. If you have the trust of the people, they would know what they must do even if your mouth is closed." After finishing the statement, a collective silence spread out. No one expected that someone was brave enough to speak this kind of fine speech in front of the fierce and unreasonable PE teacher. They secretly conversed, this person is damned, yet they couldn't help but to cheer for him. Everyone despised this kind of teacher, the person who dared to oppose the teacher will surely become a tragic but admirable hero in their mind. The PE teacher acted as if he was possessed. Why is his manner of speaking very familiar? Looking at him in the eyes, why do I feel that our positions have been swapped? That's not right. He is just a student! I am the teacher! I order him to do so, yet he do it the other way around. How does he manage to reverse our roles? This is unfair! "What qualifications do you have, talking to me like this?" Gu Hai retorted rudely, "Then, what are your so-called qualifications?" The PE teacher's face turned livid, pointing at the ground, he said, "If you can do fifty pushups in a minute, I will pretend that I didn't hear what you have said just now." Gu Hai snickered, both hands ready, waiting for the PE teacher to say 'start'. 41
Are you Addicted? The PE teacher brought a stopwatch and cast a scornful glance at Gu Hai. "Start." "1, 2, 3, 4,..." The whole class counted and cheered Gu Hai at the same time. His movement speed was so fast that you could only see this kind of thing in the television. When the count reached fifty, there's still half a minute left. Some of the boys even sweated, whether it was due to the sunlight or they were truly frightened, nobody knew. "106." A burst of enthusiastic applause erupted from the ranks of students. "What are you guys applauding for?" The PE teacher roared loudly until the whole class quieted down. He faced Gu Hai, "You think you are very honorable? Bah! The students don't know what a joke you are! People treat you as a monkey and they treat me as the monkey trainer! You think people truly admire you? Do not flatter yourself!" "Then, let me see you do one honorable thing." Gu Hai's constant provocation caused some male students to jeer continuously from the back. "Teacher, show us some of your abilities, too! We also want to see them. You just retired from the army, right? We also want to see what does the integrity of a soldier looks like!" "That's right! You have great skills, so share it with us!" "......" The class' jeering and Gu Hai's indifferent expression pushed the PE teacher's nerve slowly to the point of explosion. He realized that he should allow the students to witness his capabilities, so that they would not question him anymore. "Quit your fussing. See that horizontal bar? Each of you will do pull-ups and do as much as you can. After all of you have finished, I will do it. Listen carefully, the number of pull-ups I can do will definitely exceed everyone's sum of pull-ups." The whole class burst with excitement. A group of male students walked towards the horizontal bar. On the other hand, the female students stood around them while cheering for them. Some students from another class also came closer to watch the excitement. The previously silent sports ground was rapidly bustling with excitement.
42
你丫上瘾了? The PE teacher set an example beforehand and explained that the chin must pass the bar while the feet must not touch the ground, this way it could be counted as one complete pull-up. "1, 2... hey you, that is not counted, next student come forward... 3, 4, 5, 6,... 41, 42,..." Although every male student did the pull-ups, no one was particularly outstanding, a lot of people couldn't sustain their own weight. From the whole class, half of them were male, forty in total. Even if each student could do three pull-ups, the total would be more than one hundred. The people who had never undergone special training realized that it was a miracle if you manage to do several tens of pull-ups. Looking around the ranks, the three remaining people were Bai Luoyi, You Qi and Gu Hai. The male students did 89 pull-ups altogether. Because of the PE teacher's requirement, some students didn't manage to do even one pull-up. Therefore, the PE teacher was fully prepared for what's coming. He could do the pull-ups intermittently for 200 times. No matter how powerful Gu Hai was, it was unlikely that the sum of pull-ups from the three boys could surpass 100. _________________________ [1] Great, now everything is already prepared, all that's left is the east wind: this is an idiom, meaning that everything is ready except the most important thing (which is 'the east wind').

Chapter 17: Gu Hai's One Man Show Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You Qi, You Qi, You Qi..." You Qi's fangirls screamed loudly, it even made Bai Luo Yin's ears went numb because he was standing beside them. He scoffed. You Qi went to a spot below the horizontal bar and stood there, the bar was shining because of his appearance. All eyes were watching him with admiration, but he failed to give a cool, manly grin. In fact, he couldn't even smile, because he was just so nervous inside. Before he went up to the horizontal bar, You Qi made a 'halt' gesture, signaling everyone around him to be quiet. In Bai Luo Yin's mind, he was certain that You Qi won't be able to do more than three pull-ups. You Qi started to grab the bar, his two hands desperately giving out all of his strength and he tried hard to lift up his head. In the middle of the cheering sounds around him, his head went over the bar, his eyes went over the bar, his nose also went over the bar... Then, he had no more strength. You Qi fell down from the bar, his face was red. Okay.... Overestimated him. The boys around him were boo-ing You Qi, but the girls didn't. They would still say, "Our idol is really cute! So, he actually has something that he couldn't do." Bai Luo Yin tapped You Qi's soft chest. "Seems like the muscles you trained for the last two weeks is useless. Next time, just button your shirt properly!" You Qi replied in a cold voice, "You are not any better than me in this." Bai Luo Yin grabbed on the bar. The PE teacher looked up, he could see that Bai Luo Yin was quite nervous. He thought Bai Luo Yin would be able to do 10 at most. Even if it surpasses total pull-ups of everyone in the class until now, it still won't pose any problem. 44
你丫上瘾了? "1, 2, 3..." As the counting went on, the PE teacher's facial expression is getting worse, he really did not expect that there was someone in this class whose physical fitness was this good. He saw that the numbers went up to almost 30 and his palms began to sweat. You Qi, who was standing on the side, was shocked. Those bowls of rice that Bai Luo Yin ate didn't simply disappear like that. After Bai Luo Yin did 30 pull-ups, he felt like he only had little strength left. But, to do 10 more pull-ups should be no problem to him. He hesitated for a while before finally letting go of the bar and went down. He should save some stamina to walk home too! Everyone was applauding him, this kind of result was considered good. Moreover, when Bai Luo Yin finished, his face wasn't even red and he didn't even lose his breath. It looked like his strength didn't lessen a bit and it made other boys envy him. Then, only Gu Hai was left. "It's your turn now, do it." The PE teacher said it triumphantly. Someone shouted from the middle of crowd, "Teacher, Gu Hai just did 100 push up. If you ask him to do this too, it's not fair." The PE teacher looked at Gu Hai, "Why don't we do it next class?" "You do it first." The PE teacher was shocked for a moment. Gu Hai said politely, "You do it first, I'll wait until you're finished, and then I'll do everyone's total number of push-ups." The teacher's face darkened, "You really have great ability, huh?" The crowd began to shout, "Together! Together!" The teacher couldn't believe him. He is just an ordinary student, he is not a soldier. He is not especially trained for this and yet he think he can beat him? Absolutely impossible! He must be bluffing, trying to scare me! The teacher went under one of the horizontal bar, while Gu Hai went to the other. He wasn't afraid to do it together, after all, the one who's going down first would be the teacher. "Help me to keep my uniform." Gu Hai took off his uniform and threw it to his classmates. 45
Are you Addicted? Someone caught his uniform, then Bai Luo Yin walked towards him and said, "Give it to me, I'll help him to look after it" As all students' attention was fixed on the horizontal bars, without thinking much he gave Gu Hai's uniform to Bai Luo Yin right away. "1, 2, 3, 4..." Gu Hai moved steadily on the bar, while Bai Luo Yin was busying himself on the lawn. His thoughts were: Dude! Come on! I need you to do it for a long time! In the beginning, those two were well-matched, both of them did it in fast speed. All of the students were cheering for them in loud voices, because this kind of competition was rarely seen. Gradually, the PE teacher began to slow down his pace, the gap between the two was slowly growing. Gu Hai, who was beside him, didn't even show tired expression. "Teacher, Gu Hai already reached 100, but you're still on 70!" Hearing this sentence, the PE teacher collapsed. He went down the bar. Completely defeated. The rest of the time was Gu Hai's one man show. Black thread in Bai Luo Yin's hands ran out already, but when he looked at the bars, Gu Hai was still doing the pull-ups. He was sweating, his arms were red, his breathing was heavy, but he still insisted to continue. The PE teacher who had already lost, only stood beside the cheering crowd. But he merely stayed still, without saying anything, feeling defeated. Bai Luo Yin was watching Gu Hai silently, he was stunned. He knew that Gu Hai would win, but he didn't know that he would won by an overwhelming difference. His physical fitness has reached the point where it was impossible for ordinary people accomplish. Regardless of his personality, Bai Luo Yin gave Gu Hai his recognition and appreciation. When the bell rang, Gu Hai jumped down from the bar, no one counted how many Gu Hai did the pull-ups, but the number was no longer important. All of them knew that Gu Hai already surpassed everyone's expectations. "Dude! You're so awesome!" A guy patted Gu Hai's shoulder. Gu Hai took his uniform from one of the students, placed it on his shoulder. Then, he walked towards the classroom. Bai Luo Yin walked leisurely at the back of the crowd, next to You Qi, behind a group of girls who were talking about Gu Hai. "My God. I think he's really good, I like him so much!" 46
你丫上瘾了? "You would not be able to control that kind of guy. He's too strong!" "How come I never find someone this good before?" "......." You Qi still had this cold expression, feeling embarrassed because he felt that he lost today. And when he heard those girls talking about Gu Hai like that, he couldn't help but to feel devastated. Bai Luo Yin looked like he didn't hear it since he just kept on walking. You Qi waved his hand in front of Bai Luo Yin's eyes. "What are you thinking about?" Bai Luo Yin smiled. "Nothing."

Chapter 18: Just laugh until you die! Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the school, the boys were often seen naked inside the building, especially when it's right after the physical education class. But everyone didn't even need to look for a second time, probably only Gu Hai, with those muscles on his body, would be looks good enough to walk on the runway. Which man would not envy him? Back to the classroom, everyone was still talking about Gu Hai. All eyes were paying attention to him. When Gu Hai realized that, he quickly dressed, otherwise people would suspect that he just wanted to show off his body. He grabbed his uniform, put both of his hands inside, and his head went into his uniform but... Enter! Enter! What the? Why can't my head get out? Gu Hai then took out his head, looked at his uniform, and found a serious problem. Why does my jacket only has two holes? The neck? Where did the neck go? Gu Hai hastily checking his uniform, and then he saw a black line along the neckline, just like the little ants that gathered together before the rainfall, he looked at it with a heavy heart. The neck was stitched, how could this happen? Gu Hai blanked for a moment, then quickly checked his drawer. His black threads and needle had disappeared. He looked at Bai Luo Yin's seat, he wasn't there. Then Gu Hai turned his head around, he saw a face with a faint smile. Bai Luo Yin's face. He didn't know how long he has been standing there, but judging from the look at his face, he seemed to really enjoy what he had just witnessed. Bai Luo Yin simply gazed at Gu Hai's expression. He slowly walked to his own seat, silently, and then suddenly... 48
你丫上瘾了? "Hahahahaha..." He couldn't hold it back anymore, he laughed hard on his desk. You Qi who sat in front of him was shocked, he never saw Bai Luo Yin laugh that much. When he turned his head, he saw that Bai Luo Yin laughed until tears came out from his eyes. He laughed while hitting his desk, unable to control his emotions. "What caused you to become like this?" You Qi's question didn't get any response, Bai Luo Yin got too carried away with his laugh. Today, Gu Hai didn't know why, but when he saw Bai Luo Yin's laugh happily like that, he unexpectedly has this mixed feelings. He didn't know whether to cry or to laugh. Well, who can he blame now? He was the one who bought the needle and the thread. He also cut other people's uniform. Now someone did the same to him, what can he say? He hurriedly tried to open the stitches. If he had known this would happen earlier, he wouldn't buy a thread this strong. Gu Hai looked everywhere for something to cut the threads with. The bell rang, from standing to sitting down, Gu Hai's hands were still battling with his uniform. The stitching was really tight, even after struggling for a long time he only could open a little. The next period was chemistry class. The teacher was a fifty-year-old woman. She was a strict teacher. She spread out the lesson's files for today, her eyes were scrutinizing the whole class, then she saw Gu Hai. "The boy in the last row, this class doesn't require you to be naked!" All eyes went to Gu Hai. Gu Hai could even see the meaning behind those eyes. Yes, he was excellent in PE class, but still trying to act cool in class, does he have no shame? "Teacher, I have a slight problem with my uniform. I will deal with it immediately." After he said that, Gu Hai started to open the stitches again, but it was too troublesome for him. Ten minutes had passed, but he only managed to undo half of them. "I'll say this, that student over there, if you like to be naked that much, simply go outside the class. I don't care how other people will look at you. But, do not do it in my class, this will affect the mood of my lecture." Gu Hai looked at Bai Luo Yin, his shoulder was shaking from his laugh. "You, just how many threads did you sew?" "I sew it as much as how many times you did the pull ups." 49
Are you Addicted? "Fuck!" Why did he do this to him? He was tired, full of sweat, yet he still being toyed around by him! Bai Luo Yin rubbed his stomach, he had no more strength left to laugh, he probably don't even have any strength left to walk home. Gu Hai finally went outside the class. He stood outside, continuing to remove the stitches. By the time he managed to open them all, the class had finished. The bell rang, Gu Hai went back into the classroom. Bai Luo Yin was packing up his belongings, and when he saw Gu Hai, he couldn't help but to smile in front of him. Gu Hai suddenly grabbed Bai Luo Yin and stared viciously at him. "So now you can laugh, huh?" "I have always been able to (laugh)!" Bai Luo Yin then saw the mess in the neckline of Gu Hai's uniform, he laughed loudly again. Gu Hai mercilessly pushed Bai Luo Yin, then he went back. "Just laugh until you die!"

Chapter 19: You are my Bastard. Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Us civilians are merely a tax-payers, every time we bought things, we just-" Bai Han Qi raised his volume, then he suddenly saw Bai Luo Yin turn around the corner. He quickly finished his conversation. "Ey, these kind of talks is futile anyway. The government's policy won't side with us civilians. I'm going back home to eat dinner. You guys can just continue talking without me." Bai Han Qi then walked to Bai Luo Yin's side. "Son, going home already? Are you tired today? Here, let me help you to bring your bag." Bai Luo Yin showed a smile that's rarely seen. "No, I'm not tired. Did you cook something?" "I did. I am just waiting for you to come home and eat together." Bai Luo Yin put his bag inside his room, then went straight to the kitchen. Just as he opened the curtain, he could smell the dish instantly. "Today's food, you weren't the one who cooked it right?" Bai Han Qi smiled shyly. "I didn't do it. Your Aunt Zou cooked for us." "Aunt Zou?" Bai Luo Yin wondered. "Which Aunt Zou?" "That.... Xiao Zhou who owns that breakfast stall, your Aunt Zou. Everyday you eat the tofu that she made, you still don't know that her last name is Zhou?" "Oohh...~" Bai Luo Yin suddenly changed his tone. "Every day you always eat her food for breakfast, and now you want to eat it for dinner too. Why don't you just marry her? Then we could save money for breakfast too." "What a nonsense!" Bai Han Qi hit Bai Luo Yin's head with chopsticks. "She still has her husband." "It's been so many year, yet he didn't even come home once. Whether he is here or not here, what's the difference?" "He does big business overseas, they can't be working together in that small breakfast stall, right?" 51
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin laughed, "He does big business but still let his wife working hard like that." "Okay, okay." Bai Han Qi gave Bai Luo Yin a meaningful glance. "Your grandmother is coming, quick eat your food." Today, Bai Luo Yin's grandmother wore a blue gown, and the collar was hollow. When Bai Luo Yin glanced at her collar, he suddenly remembered something and he laughed out loud. When Grandmother Bai saw Bai Luo Yin laughing, she narrowed her eyes. "Ah~ Today my big turtle [1] is really happy~" Bai Han Qi pointed with chopsticks and said, "Mom, he is your grandson. Grandson. Not a turtle." "Ah... right. My bastard [2]." Bai Luo Yin was speechless. At his side, Grandfather Bai laughed until he choked on his own food. Bai Luo Yin quickly took some tissue to clean up the mess in front of his grandfather, and also helped him to wear a bib, before starting to eat again. They were eating happily when suddenly Bai Han Qi's phone rang. Not long after he answered the call, Bai Han Qi handed the phone to Bai Luo Yin. "Someone is looking for you, it's a girl." Bai Luo Yin took the phone, then he went out of the kitchen with a puzzled look. Who called him through his father's phone? Even he himself had no idea. Bai Luo Yin went outside of his house. Grandma Bai stretched her neck, stealthily took a peek at what Bai Luo Yin did. She quietly asked Bai Han Qi, "Girlfriend?" "What girlfriend? How old is he to have a girlfriend now?" Bai Han Qi put a piece of fish mean onto Grandma Bai's plate, "Eat this." "Well... Before I die, I have to see my grandson getting married." Bai Han Qi casually replied, "You're still alive for the time being anyway." "Why do you say something like that?" Grandmother Bai hit the back of Bai Han Qi's palm. Bai Han Qi just laughed. "......." "Hello?"
52
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin could hear the sound of cries from the other side of the line. He didn't even need to ask, because he already knew who is it. His hunch told him to hang up immediately. "Do not hang up." The other person seemed to read Bai Luo Yin's mind. She stopped crying and started to speak in a firm tone, "If you hang up, I would go back there to find you. I'm not joking." Bai Luo Yin calmed down a little and softly asked, "What's the matter?" "Why do you never read the letter I've sent to you? I've sent you messages, yet you never replied to me. I'm here overseas by myself, I don't know anyone else, this is the time when you are supposed to accompany me. How can you be so heartless to me?" "How do you know that I never read your messages?" "I know, I just know it..." She started to cry again. Bai Luo Yin gripped the phone. "Then you should've known that I'm a very decisive person. Break up is break up." The other person went silent for a while before saying, "Read the emails I've sent to you, read every single one, if you're not doing it, then I would call your father's phone everyday, until he's tired." "No... Shi Hui..." Bai Luo Yin was angry. "Why did I never realize that you're this unreasonable?" "You forced me to become like this!" Bai Luo Yin wanted to say something, but she already hung up the phone. "Son? Son? Bring that bottle of beer inside." Bai Luo Yin placed the phone inside his pocket, carried two bottles of beer into the house. His mood was gloomy. The taste of the food that was previously delicious seemed to change for Bai Luo Yin. In order to prevent his grandparents from seeing it, Bai Luo Yin forced himself to eat the food. Before he slept, Bai Luo Yin turned on his computer and opened his mailbox. When he saw that he got 28 unread messages, he just moved his mouse and scrolled over his inbox. In order to simplify this matter, and in order to calm down his mood swings, Bai Luo Yin opened the last mail. "I knew you'd start to see the mails from this one, in order to prevent you being lazy, I decided to write the message's content in the sixth mail." 53
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin opened the sixth mail. "I'm hurt. You actually only opened the last mail. But what I wanted to say isn't here too. If you want, then you can open the 10th mail." Bai Luo Yin patiently opened the 10th mail, but the content was similar to the previous one, the purpose was to make Bai Luo Yin open the mail before this mail. It went on and on, until he had only two unread mails left, and Bai Luo Yin hadn't seen anything important. He wasn't in the mood to play games anymore, so he directly opened one of the two mails left. "Ahh.. No more patience? I wanted you to open the other mail, but you opened this one instead. There is nothing here." Bai Luo Yin then opened the last mail. "If you've read all those mails I've sent you, this means you actually dont mind about me, right? We.... Is it really over between us?" Bai Luo Yin's depression and irritation in his heart just disappeared at that moment, instead, he felt helpless and empty. The pressure in his deepest heart opened again, the thoughts about their social status differences, slowly growing in his mind. Shi Hui was the daughter of a politician. She bought expensive dresses, and ate meals that would cost enough to feed his family for two months. He used to disregard something like that, until Jiang Yuan reappeared again in his life, exposing his father's poor living conditions thoroughly. He loved his father so much, he never despised him or whatsoever, he also never allowed other people to despise his father. However, he absolutely doesn't want to be the second Bai Han Qi, there will be one day where he would stand up there, looking down at everyone else. Those people who regarded them like little ants, he will draw out their bones, expose their rotten flesh to the world and let them receive the cruelest baptism. _________________________ [1] Here, Bai Luo Yin's grandmother said the wrong word. She wanted to say 孙孿 (shun zi: grandson) but she said 龟孿 (gui zi: turtle) instead.

Chapter 20: A Fierce Wind Blows! Translator: MusketeerLee Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the morning, Gu Hai went to class early, a group of gang student was standing at the door, looking at Gu Hai from head to toe. Waiting for Gu Hai to walk by, then a guy grabbed Gu Hai's arm. "I want to ask you something." Gu Hai glanced at him quickly, his face was expressionless. "What's wrong?" "Let's find a private place to talk," he said. Gu Hai followed him patiently... "I want to ask you, " the guy whispered very close to Gu Hai's ear, "Are you recently dismissed from the military, falsify your identity, and then come to our school to obtain a high school diploma?" "Ahh-----!!!" A long growl quaked in the hall for a while. ..... Gu Hai entered the class, feeling like he won a jack-pot, as today Bai Luo Yin wasn't late to class. He was sitting at his desk, placing his hand on a book, but his eyes were gazing elsewhere. "What's up? Did you ask someone for a ride to school today?" Gu Hai smiled and sat at his seat. "I woke up at 3 AM."Bai Luo Yin replied. Gu Hai's nerves jumped suddenly, he wasn't used to Bai Luo Yin blunt speech. "What time did you go to bed last night?"Gu Hai prodded. "2:50 AM," Bai Luo Yin replied. "Oh, you stayed up the whole night, didn't you?"
55
Are you Addicted? Luoyin's body was resting on the table and half of his face was plastered to it. His eyes were staring at a nail on the wall, he didn't seem to really focus on anything. Gu Hai looked as if he was putting his stuff away into his backpack, but he was actually observing Bai Luo Yin's gesture. Last night was an awfully sleepless night for Bai Luo Yin. Heavy, dark circles surrounded his eyes, making him look very tired. Bai Luo Yin leaned further on the table, sleep came to him quickly. He adjusted his position and fell asleep. Kittt--A creaking sound suddenly woke Bai Luo Yin up, the table from behind hit his back hard, made him inhale a mouthful of cool air. "I am picking my stuff up." Gu Hai said. Gu Hai threw his ruler away, picked it up, then he moved his table back. Bai Luo Yin's back was throbbing, but he endured it. He knew Gu Hai did it on purpose, but Bai Luo Yin didn't want to fuss over it. Bai Luo Yin's head barely hit the desk and quickly fall sleep. "Hey, Xiao Bai." Gu Hai pulled at Bai Luo Yin's hair, his action actually tossed Bai Luo Yin's head around. "Say, you didn't sleep at all last night because you were having lots of fun, right?" Bai Luo Yin glanced at Gu Hai and said with a very low voice, "Let me tell you, I am not in a good mood today, you better not provoke me." Gu Hai didn't seem to understand," Not in a good mood? Having too much fun that you became sad?" Bai Luo Yin gnashed his teeth, grabbed Gu Hai's collar, and glared at Gu Hai angrily, "You don't understand human speech, do you?" Gu Hai hands were swinging back and forth, then he smirked evilly. "I really don't understand." "After this self-study period has ended, we will start with the third chapter, everyone should read the new chapter in advance." Everyone became quiet, the beautiful face of the teacher woke the sleeping students up, Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai refused to budge even an inch. Bai Luo Yin loosened his collar, turned his back stiffly to lean on the table and continued to sleep. 56
你丫上瘾了? Five minutes ago, Bai Luo Yin couldn't sleep peacefully, worried that Gu Hai would continue to prank him. Afterwards, the sounds died down, he released his worries and continued to sleep. Just as he entered his dream, he felt a pair of hands touching his back and starting to pull at his uniform. "Tsk... There are so many holes at your uniform, yet you're still wearing it? Even if you don't want to throw it away, you should patch it. Did you use up all of the threads to sew my shirt?" Bai Luo Yin shifted his head a little bit. He started to show extreme irritation when Gu Hai managed to woke him up again. "Can you just shut your mouth up?" Gu Hai expressed his feelings, "My bad, you can continue sleeping, I swear I won't bother you anymore." Bai Luo Yin moved his desk and chair up a little bit, making sure that Gu Hai's hand couldn't touch him. Then, he leaned on the table, this time sleeping while keeping his guard up. One minute, two minutes, three minutes... Bai Luo Yin inwardly counted the time. Meanwhile, his energy changing gradually from nervous into more relaxed, his the sensitivity of his limbs and ear also started decline slowly. Suddenly, a hand crawled on Bai Luo Yin's back. Damn it! Bai Luo Yin stood up and started to curse. "Fuck you! Are you sick?" A person stood next to him, Bai Luo Yin glared at the person and froze suddenly. Luo Xiao Yu's eyes and hands were fixed on Bai Luo Yin's shoulder. The noise died down and the whole class immediately stared at the person who had been sleeping in the class, then being awaken by the teacher yet he still cursed at her too. "I am terribly sorry, I thought..." Bai Luo Yin didn't need to glance at Gu Hai to know how his smug his face is. Luo Xiaoyu's face turned dark at last, "Come out with me right now." Going outside, Bai Luo Yin quickly explained to Luo Xiaoyu. "Miss, I was not cursing at you, but at Gu Hai."
57
Are you Addicted? Luo Xiao Yu's eyes suddenly became red, "There is no need for you to make up excuses. Not long ago Gu Hai wanted to switch his seat, saying that because both of you have a good relationship, so he switched his seat to sit near you." "......" Bai Luo Yin admitted defeat, "That's fine, you can consider that I cursed on you just now, how do you want to punish me?" Unexpected, this sentence that came out of Bai Luo Yin's mouth actually made her cry. One thing that Bai Luo Yin couldn't bear to see was a woman's tears. Moreover, since last night until that moment, he had been faced with two women crying in front of him consecutively. Suddenly, a thick haze layered his heart once more. He searched his pockets for a handkerchief, but unfortunately, he forgot to bring it along with him. "Miss, I was wrong, please don't cry anymore." People said that a bad-tempered person usually had strong character as well. Then, why is she crying suddenly like this? Don't tell me she also heart-broken? "Enough, you can go back to the classroom, I'll stay here and cry for a while." "Miss..." "Go inside!" Luo Xiaoyu shouted with a hoarse voice. A line of tear rolling down from her eyes, which made her looked very pitiful, especially when a guy see her, it would tear at his conscience. Bai Luo Yin couldn't bear to imagine, if Shi Hui is standing and crying like this in front of him, his heart would melt and he would directly agree to get back with her. Returning back to the classroom, Bai Luo Yin couldn't escape Gu Hai's devious eyes. That kind of unreadable stare was profound and resolute, while concealing a kind of crafty plan similar to the gu toxin [1]. Bai Luo Yin just sat down when a voice from behind him raised up, "Didn't I tell you, that I won't bother you anymore? Yet you still curse on other people. Look at what you've done, aren't you stupid?" Bai Luo Yin was unresponsive, putting away his books neatly. "I didn't ask for your opinion." Gu Hai kicked his chair and Bai Luo Yin's body fall forward, but he quickly reverted back. 58
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin knew that this kind of person was similar to a dog. If you don't pay attention to him, then he won't pay attention to you. If you feed him food, then he will follow you all day long. If you provoke him, he will bite you at the first glance. There is only one way to deal with this kind of person, which is to stay as far as possible from him. "Let's exchange places." You Qi turned his head to Bai Luo Yin, "What for?" "Don't ask, just help me." You Qi nodded his head, grabbed his books and exchanged his seat with Bai Luo Yin, also not forgetting to grab several rolls of toilet paper. Bai Luo Yin sat at You Qi's seat, he wanted to put his books into the drawer, but then he saw a bunch of used tissues filling the drawer... He wanted to throw them to You Qi, but remembered that table behind was his. Finally, he left them in You Qi's drawer. Bai Luo Yin felt very comfortable since no one disturbed him. You Qi was very talkative, but it's not a big deal. Bai Luo Yin heard You Qi's mumbling from behind and not long after that he went to sleep. Suddenly, a thud could be heard. The old wound at Bai Luo Yin's back had not healed yet, but another shove knocked him again from behind. Damn it, what is it this time? Bai Luo Yin turned his head, and saw that You Qi was grinning nervously. "Don't blame me, the person behind kicked me and forced me towards your direction." Bai Luo Yin was unable to think calmly as he was aware of Gu Hai's capabilities. Bai Luo Yin knew that if he moved to the first seat, Gu Hai would push the whole line to the teacher's table. Now, Bai Luo Yin needed to find a way to deal with Gu Hai. He couldn't rely on his own strength, otherwise he would lose. Bai Luo Yin temporarily get rid of his depression and started to use all of his brain cells to think of a way to deal with this kind of stubborn and cunning foe. The fourth period was self-study period. Gu Hai got bored and asked You Qi to give him his toilet paper, "Give me one roll of toilet paper, I have none left." You Qi's indifferent look swept over six tables, his gaze freezing half of the classroom. "A piece is not enough? And you want one roll?!" 59
Are you Addicted? "......" Finally, he gave Gu Hai his beloved roll of toilet paper miserably. Gu Hai tore the packaging of the toilet paper apart, his hands intentionally trembled to move the roll between his hands, flinging the roll of tissue around, before it finally fell down at Bai Luo Yin's desk. "Oops, my bad, I used too much strength." Gu Hai stepped quickly to Bai Luo Yin's table, took back the toilet roll, but he threw them from the left and taking back toward the right. Doing it repeatedly to trap Bai Luo Yin and You Qi inside. "Hey, what happened?" Gu Hai pretended not to know what was happening, still holding the roll of tissue while walking back and forth, and creating more rounds. You Qi realized something strange, then hastily shouted, "Don't circle us, you will trap us inside." Bai Luo Yin pushed You Qi's hand down "Let him do it." Gu Hai stopped when there were no more tissues left, he wrote down something on a piece of paper and gave it to the girl beside him, "Pass this over to the boy sitting on the northernmost desk of the fifth row." "Quick, tear this off, why you aren't you moving?" You Qi was starting to move and tear the tissue. Bai Luo Yin only skimmed over the message and stopped You Qi immediately. "Don't tear it and definitely don't touch it." Shortly after that, Bai Luo Yin took out a bunch of used toilet paper from You Qi's drawer, placed them on the bridge of tissue, which Gu Hai created. They rolled with a rapid speed. You Qi still didn't understand what was happening, the desk behind him becoming an ocean of used toilet paper. At that instant, Gu Hai knew that something was wrong. He wanted to prevent the message from reaching the last guy sitting on the fifth row, but unfortunately, he had opened the message and finished reading it. Not long after that, he extended his hands to switch on the electric fan. A gust of whirlwind blew the bunch of You Qi's used toilet paper to Gu Hai's entire head and body.

Chapter 21: Ginger is hotter the older it gets. Translator: Estreline English Proofreader: @Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After school, Bai Luo Yin was walking down the road, his mood was extremely complicated. On one hand, he was wondering on how to make Shi Hui completely gave up on him, in a good way. While on the other hand, he wanted to sincerely convince Gu Hai to stop bothering himself. When he think about it, Gu Hai is his priority. Shi Hui's matter is destined to be a prolonged war, first of all he has to resolve that annoying fly who bothered him a lot. Then after that, he would be able to handle his heart's problem. The weather was suffocating and it made people breathless. It was supposed to be the beginning of autumn, yet his body still felt sticky, he only walked a few steps and he would be sweating. When will the rain fall? Bai Luo Yin walked on the streets, looking around at the stores and plants and flowers on the roadside. Suddenly, he was infatuated by two words, he couldn't help but to stop. Lubricant oil... ........ After the first bell for the afternoon class rang, Gu Hai suddenly found a black spot on his arm. He ran his fingers on his desk, and he saw that two of his fingers also became black. How can there be black powder on his desk without any reason? This must be Bai Luo Yin's doing... So childish. Gu Hai groaned, he wiped his desk clean, and raised his hand to ask permission from the teacher to go out. After he got the permission, Gu Hai got up and went outside, easily sliding the door, because the wind was strong outside. When he heard the sound of door closing, Bai Luo Yin's lips let out a smile.
62
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai washed his hands. He went back to the classroom and he found out that the door was locked from inside, no matter how hard he tried to open it, he couldn't do it. He gently knocked the door and one student stood up to help him. Nevertheless, no matter how hard they twist the doorknob, it wouldn't budge. The frontdoor was also locked, Gu Hai tried to open it, but he failed. Gu Hai then thought about those black powders on his desk, and he suddenly understood, all of this must be Bai Luo Yin's dirty trick. His real aim wasn't to make his arm dirty, but to lock him outside. You think if you locked all the doors like this, I won't be able to get in? Gu Hai walked out of the school building, then he stood on the ground and looked up, the windows of class 27 are wide open. It was only three floors, for Gu Hai this was a piece of cake. He looked around and no one was nearby. Gu Hai's feet stepped on the window's frame, his hand grabbed the water pipe next to the window and climbed quickly. His action was very vigorous, each step was light, stable, and fast. In less than half a minute, Gu Hai already climbed until the third floor, besides the window. He took a peek inside the class, taking this opportunity since the teacher was turning around to write on board, he quickly moved his hand from the water pipe to the windowsill. Eh? Why is this part so slippery? Bai Luo Yin heard a loud sound outside, he knew that Gu Hai had fallen down. His heart felt like he had swallowed hundreds of peppermint candies, he felt refreshed and satisfied. It had been so long since he had this much fun, it was as if he was lying on a prairie and strolling on the beachside... Bang bang bang! A loud knock on the door suddenly disturbed Bai Luo Yin's thoughts. Didn't he just fell down? Then, how can he reach here this quick? Director Zhang from the security department angrily knocked the door. He shouted, "Didn't someone called to tell me that a teacher had fainted? And why couldn't this door be opened? Open it!" The teacher was shocked, he hurriedly put his book down and rushed to open the door, but he found out that the door couldn't be opened. "Sir, the backdoor is also locked." Director Zhang stared at a sticker on the doorknob. Bai Luo Yin's patent? 63
Are you Addicted? "Let me do it." Bai Luo Yin approached the door and he secretly pulled out the rubber band from the inside of the lock. Soon, the door opened and Bai Luo Yin saw Director Zhang's angry face. "Are you Bai Luo Yin?" Bai Luo Yin hesitated for a while, but then he nodded. "Come to my office!" His loud voice shocked some students who had just woken up from their sleep. "To put it nicely, you are vandalizing. To put it strictly, this shows that you have serious issues with your way of thinking and your morals! Why did you do that prank call? And do you think you can do whatever you want to the door locks? You have grown up, how can you do such a childish thing like this?" Bai Luo Yin's ears were buzzing, his head was messed up, but he knew clearly who gave a call to Director Zhang, now he could only curse that guy and wished that his leg broke or something. "You have to pay for damaging the public property, bring 100 yuan by tomorrow." "Why do I have to pay? Those two locks is not even damaged that bad, I can fix it right away!" "You tampered with them so you have to pay. It's the rule." "Our family is poor, I can't afford it." "You can't pay for it, but you can tamper with the locks? And you're still joking about the patent. Okay, you don't want to pay? Give me your parent's phone number. I'll get it from them." "It's better to get it from me rather than getting it from him." "Enough! Give me the number!" Bai Luo Yin then mentioned a series of numbers to him. The call went through, then Bai Han Qi's simple and honest voice could be heard from the other side of the phone. "Who is this?" "I am director of security department at Bai Luo Yin's school. Bai Luo Yin broke two class doors locks. I asked him to pay the fine, but he replied to me, saying that his 64
你丫上瘾了? family is poor. I only wanted to hear, just how poor is your family? You can damage the property yet you cannot pay the fine." "The lock in our house has been broken for almost five years, we didn't even change it to a new one. However, in these 5 years, not even a thief broke in. So tell me, how poor is our family?" Director Zhang breathed heavily, he was shocked. Bai Luo Yin almost laughed out loud. As expected, a chunk of old ginger gives adequate spicy flavor. _________________________ The original title of this chapter is "姜还是耿的辣" literally means ginger is hotter the older it gets. It's an idiom which means the older you get, the wiser you become. Or you could just say, the one with more experience wins.

It finally rained on one melancholic day. It soon turned into a heavy downpour. Standing at the first floor of the school building while looking at the rain, Bai Luo Yin's heart was nevertheless happy. After craving this for so long, finally this time they could save several hundred yuans of water expense. Most students who were living in the school dorms immediately opened their umbrella and returned to their dorms. Meanwhile, the remaining ten or so people were mostly picked up by their parents. Bai Luo Yin looked at the wall clock, seemingly in a battle with himself. He estimated that it will still be raining even when the sky had turned dark, so he had better walk home. Gu Hai was getting ready to walk from the school building when he caught a sight of his own chauffeur standing outside, waiting for him. "It is raining heavily today. It's better if you do not take a taxi by your own." A slight pleading look could be seen from the eyes of the chauffeur. Nevertheless, Gu Hai was able to tell that he was obviously forced to do so, as it was completely different from the pleading gaze of a parent. There was no sign of concern in his eyes, merely the anxiety of knowing the consequences to something. Nevertheless, he entered the car. "Xiao Hai, the general said that today is the mistress' birthday. He invited you to come home and have a family reunion dinner." Gu Hai's head rested on the car cushion. My mother does not celebrate her birthdays anymore, only the anniversary of her death. "Send me back to my place." "Xiao Hai..." "I say, send me back to my..." Gu Hai noticed someone outside, stopped his speech abruptly, then extended his hand and gestured to the chauffeur, "Drive slower." Outside, in the middle of the heavy rain, Bai Luo Yin walked bare-footedly on the road, his body was drenched from head to toe. His clothes stuck to his body, forming the 66
你丫上瘾了? outline of his tall and well-balanced posture/stature. His pace was steady and there wasn't a trace of rush or discomfort in his walk throughout this rainstorm. Soaked to the bone, he crossed the street while wearing that torn uniform, thus exposing bits and pieces of his wheat-colored skin. The car slowly followed Bai Luo Yin, there was no sign that he was aware of being trailed. His hand kept on wiping the raindrops from his face. From Gu Hai's angle, he could see that Bai Luo Yin's lips had turned somewhat pale. Gone was his vigorous and lively manner from earlier that day. Come to think about it, what good could one sleepless night, combined with joking around with him for the whole day, bring? "Xiao Hai, are we still following him?" "Just keep on following him." "Why don't you just call him and tell him to get into the car?" When Gu Hai shoot an icy glare at the driver, he immediately shut his mouth. The rain continued until Bai Luo Yin reached home, from afar Bai Han Qi could be seen standing in the rain while helping Aunt Zou to tidy up the tables and chairs. The altitude of this place was lower. It was perfectly fine when it was not raining, but when it rains, the whole breakfast stall would be flooded. Thus, no one set up a stall here except for Aunt Zou. She specifically sought a quiet and tranquil place. Bai Luo Yin hurried his pace to help Bai Han Qi pull the plastic cover together. Bai Han Qi shouted, "Just go inside, I can do it by myself." "Stop talking nonsense! Do it quickly!" Gu Hai's family car followed him silently, stopping at the entrance of an alley. He sat inside the car, observing Bai Luo Yin's bustling silhouette in the middle of the rain, looking at the pair of father and son quarrelling endlessly about who should carry the heaviest item as both grabbed the item at the same time. That sight filled his heart with a faint warmth. To begin with, perhaps this is how life should be, small yet trivial, instead of using a meal to merely bribe people to come back home. "Take me home." The driver sighed, nevertheless he still drove the car and turn around. Bai Han Qi handed 20 yuan to Bai Luo Yin, "Tomorrow, buy some breakfast on the street. With this heavy rain outside, the breakfast stall probably wouldn't open tomorrow." 67
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin wiped his damp hair while returning the money back to Bai Han Qi. "It's fine, I can hold my hunger for a while." "Just take it!" Bai Han Qi urged even more, "Our family is not that poor that we can't even eat breakfast." "Then, why don't you give me more? With this 20 yuan, I can't even eat fully at Aunt Zou's place." Bai Han Qi whacked Bai Luo Yin's head, "You little-!" After chatting and laughing, Bai Han Qi tossed 50 yuan to Bai Luo Yin. The next morning, Bai Luo Yin woke up and tidied up his things, then went to school right away. He didn't bring the money, it's not like he didn't want to take it, but he had really forgotten. Only when he arrived at Aunt Zou's stall that he remembered it was closed today. However, Bai Luo Yin hated to turn back. Hence, with a hungry stomach, he continued walking to school. Bai Luo Yin finally arrived at the classroom, placing his schoolbag down, he saw a big bag filled with breakfast food on top of his desk. So many foods, who put it here? This isn't to tempt me on purpose, right? "This is for you." Bai Luo Yin stared at You Qi's seat constantly. He was still sleeping but Bai Luo Yin guessed that he was the sender. Besides him, no one knew that he could eat this much. Every kind of food was inside the bag. There was the Western-style pastry he disliked, bread, sandwich, custard tart, and the like. There was also the food he liked, sesame seed cake with intestines, steamed stuffed buns, griddlecake and porridge with eight toppings... Well, I'm going to help myself then.

Chapter 23: Gu Hai quite likes you Translator: Estreline English proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bai Luo Yin ate all the foods that he liked and left the foods that he didn't like, then immediately placed it on top of You Qi's desk. "I left some for you to eat." You Qi had just woke up, he was still in a daze, then he saw a bunch of breakfast. He immediately grinned, "How do you know that I haven't had breakfast yet?" Bai Luo Yin's heart touched. You Qi bought so many breakfasts for him, even though he himself hasn't eaten anything yet. You Qi sat up, he looked at the foods inside the bag, turned his head around and smiled. "Are you repaying me for that day when I treated you? When Bai Luo Yin heard that, he thought that something is wrong. Looks like You Qi is not the one who bought those foods for him. "Don't eat it yet." Bai Luo Yin held You Qi's hand. You Qi frowned his eyebrows. "Do you regret giving it to me?" "Wasn't it you who bought these breakfast for me?" These words didn't provoke You Qi, but they provoked the guy behind him instead. He thought Bai Luo Yin ate so delightfully because he accepted his good intentions, but it turns out that he ate so much without knowing who gave it to him. When he felt someone patting his shoulder, Bai Luo Yin turned his head around. "If you don't want to eat them, just throw them away. Do not make a gift out of something that is provided by someone else." Bai Luo Yin's expression turned cold. "So you're the one who bought these things?" Gu Hai didn't say anything, but his expression answered Bai Luo Yin's question. Bai Luo Yin was annoyed, "Why didn't you say it earlier? If I had known that it is you who bought these, I'd rather die from starving than to eat them." 69
Are you Addicted? "But, you ate it already." Bai Luo Yin wanted to spit them out, "Who told you to put this here?" Gu Hai became angry. I bought those things for you and you are still badmouthing me. I, Gu Hai, do I ever do something like this before? When my girlfriend wanted to eat a pancake, I didn't even bother to queue up at the pancake stall to buy it for her. "If you regret it, then just pay me. Those foods cost 32 yuan in total. Well, I won't count those foods you didn't eat, so just give me 30 yuan, it's already enough." Bai Luo Yin clenched his teeth. His mouth was still unwilling to give up. "Is your family selling breakfast for living? There's no more business, so now you guys came up with these kinds of dirty tricks." "Yes, we do sell breakfast, and we're specialized in tricking fools like you." "You bastard." "......" Bai Luo Yin turned around, then he saw You Qi opened his breakfast. His heart was pissed off, he vented out his anger towards You Qi. "Have I allowed you to eat?" You Qi's handsome face was puzzled, "These foods I ate, isn't it a payback from you?" Bai Luo Yin stood up and smacked You Qi. After the break, the students split into some small groups and headed towards lab. You Qi walked beside Bai Luo Yin. He couldn't help but to tease Bai Luo Yin, "Actually, Gu Hai is really good towards you." Bai Luo Yin was thinking about Shi Hui's matter. When he heard what You Qi said, he quickly turned his head to You Qi. "He's good to me?" Bai Luo Yin couldn't wait to rip You Qi's mouth. "Why do you talk nonsense like that? Which part of him do you see that you think he's being good to me?" You Qi tidied his collar, taking his sweet time to answer, "Just look at those breakfast he bought this morning, just how much effort he took to buy them all. Those cakes and breads, he could easily buy them in one trip. But just look at the buns, hamburgers, pancakes, egg tarts, didn't he queue at those different stalls one by one?" Bai Luo Yin's expression softened a bit, but his tone was neither hot nor cold. "Maybe he bought them in one stall?" 70
你丫上瘾了? "Have you ever seen a stall that sells that many kind of breakfast? You're satisfied with them anyway. If I had to queue to buy so many things, I wouldn't have patience to do it." Bai Luo Yin remembered today's breakfast, then suddenly he felt hot. "I'm just wondering, why are you always making it difficult for Gu Hai? "I'm making it difficult for him?" Bai Luo Yin felt wronged. "It's him who always thinks that I'm just an eyesore! He's always searching for my flaws. If someone can make him ignore me, I will bow down to that person 3 times!" You Qi looked at Bai Luo Yin with amusement. "For what? I think, Gu Hai quite likes you anyway, every time I turned my head around, I always catch him staring at you. I am really confused, you say, he's a guy, but how can he always stare at you all day and night." "Why do you think he does that? Must be thinking about how to prank me!" "But all I can see in his eyes is admiration for you!" "......" "Bai Luo Yin, why are you heading that way?" Hearing a familiar voice, Bai Luo Yin's face beamed with delight. He went to Yang Meng's side and grabbed his shoulder. "Our next class is an experiment class, so we're heading to the lab." "Oh." Yang Meng smiled then looked at You Qi. "Who is this?" "My classmate who's sitting in front of me, You Qi." Bai Luo Yin introduced them. Yang Meng nodded. "Continue." "Continue what?" "Go on. It hasn't finished yet right?" Bai Luo Yin patted Yang Meng's head. "What do you still want me to say?" Yang Meng was surprised. "You still haven't told me his name!" Bai Luo Yin was speechless for a while. He is really deserved to be called his childhood friend. Meanwhile, You Qi looked frustrated. "My name is You Qi." 71
Are you Addicted? Yang Meng awkwardly laughed, "Why do you have such a weird name?" You Qi put on a cold expression, "I don't like to hear what you have just said." "If you don't like it, then go change your name." "......" They had few casual conversations on the way to the lab, then You Qi asked Bai Luo Yin, "That guy just now, what was his name again?" "Yang Meng." "What the... My name is still more reasonable than his!" Bai Luo Yin gave a meaningful smile, "When both of you are standing together, it looks really good." "There's sulfuric acid inside the lab, be careful, I can throw it to you." "......." During English class, Bai Luo Yin always felt uneasy. One time his back felt really hot, it feels like something was burning his back. However, the other time he felt really cold, like someone stuffed ice cubes inside his uniform. "I think Gu Hai quite likes you. Every time I turned my head around, I always catch him staring at you." Just now, he was feeling hot, but now it seemed like somebody sent chills down his spine. Bai Luo Yin slowly turned his head around. Damn, it was exactly like what You Qi said! "Why are you looking at me?" "Your head turned around like a steering wheel, if I didn't watch you and it fell into a ditch, what should I do?" "......" "The class atmosphere is really depressing, I think everyone is sleepy. Let's do this then, who sings the best in this class? I will ask him to sing an English song, so we could keep a lively atmosphere." Everyone agreed. "Now who wants to sing?" 72
你丫上瘾了? Everyone went silent. The English teacher smiled helplessly, "Or who wants to recommend someone?" After a long silence, a voice can be heard from the back of the class. "Bai Luo Yin." Bai Luo Yin could strangle Gu Hai to death right now. "Who is called Bai Luo Yin? Just now I heard someone recommended you." Bai Luo Yin stood up, then used his leg to push his chair, until it hit Gu Hai's chest strongly. Since he stood up already, now he has to sing. He chose his most favorite song, then sang it softly. The song was very short, but it stunned Gu Hai. This English song, was the one that his mother often sang when he was a kid. Back then, she would do a waltz while singing this song. Her one-person waltz was so beautiful like a lonely and pretty swan. Even if those are his memories from years ago, whenever Gu Hai listened to this song, he could still remember those memories clearly. The whole class applauded Bai Luo Yin, waking Gu Hai from his thoughts. His classmate beside him said, "Bai Luo Yin, you're really talented. How can God give all those talents to one person? If you can simply give one to me, that would be nice...." Bai Luo Yin hadn't even digested the praise when a cold voice came from behind him. "I thought you could only use that mouth to eat." Days passed, every student in the class could tell that Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin are enemies. If Bai Luo Yin said east, then Gu Hai would say west. When Bai Luo Yin did something, Gu Hai would definitely undo his actions. Even the nerds in the class asked Bai Luo Yin, "Why is Gu Hai always against you?" "He is sick." Other than regarding Gu Hai as a crazy guy, Bai Luo Yin couldn't find any other reason. He couldn't imagine why a psychologically normal person would always want to pick a fight with him. He really wanted to ask Gu Hai, what did actually I do to provoke you? Why are you acting normal towards others, but when it comes to me, you... However, every time before he could speak his mind, Gu Hai had already started his attacks. In order not to lose, Bai Luo Yin could only counterattack. As time passed, his plans to end any argument swiftly were completely destroyed. 73

"Son, this girl is calling you again." Bai Luo Yin had just eaten a few mouthful of rice. But after he heard those words, he no longer had any appetite. "Dad, just hang it up immediately." Bai Han Qi wanted to turn it off, but Bai Luo Yin suddenly took the phone. "Forget it, just give it to me." Autumn has come. The wind was blowing strongly on the yard. Bai Luo Yin stood under the tree, he felt like his own body temperature had decreased. For quite a while, every night after he went home, Bai Luo Yin had been doing long video calls with Shi Hui. It was very tiring for him, he felt like he has been lowering his defense. He didn't want it to be this way, so last night he deliberately didn't give Shi Hui a call. As a result, Shi Hui called him today. "Do you think I'm a bother?" "Let's not contact each other anymore in the future." "No. You absolutely can't do this. If you do this to me, I will bother your father every day." "Just do what you want to do." Bai Luo Yin hung up the phone, took out the phone card, then went back inside the house. "Finished your call already?" "Yes." Bai Luo Yin nodded. Bai Han Qi asked out of his curiosity, "Who is that girl?" "Even if I tell you, you wouldn't know her. How much credit do you have in your phone card?" Bai Han Qi thought about it. "Less than 20 yuan." 74
你丫上瘾了? "Then just change it to the new one." Bai Luo Yin's hand was really fast, he quickly broke the phone card with both of his hands. Bai Han Qi wanted to stop him, but it was too late. He just stared at the phone card that he had been using for several years, his heart felt bad. "There are so many contact numbers inside that card, now everything is gone..." Bai Luo Yin patted Bai Han Qi's shoulder to comfort him. "Don't worry. Your phone is at home all day, yet there is not even a phone call coming. It's useless to keep those phone numbers, might as well delete them all." Bai Han Qi sighed, and then he looked at Bai Luo Yin's mouth. "Your inflammation these past two days, do you feel any better?" "It's better now." Bai Luo Yin walked towards his room. "Probably by applying some more ointment, it will do, where did you put it? "It's inside the second drawer in the room, the one with yellow tube." Before, Bai Han Qi used to help applying the ointment on Bai Luo Yin's mouth with a cotton bud. Now he wanted to do it himself. He searched the drawer and finally saw the yellow ointment. "Ma Ying Long Hemorrhoid Ointment." This can't be it.... Bai Luo Yin searched again, but he couldn't find it. He searched the first and third drawer as well, until his hand was full of dust. "Dad, where did you put it?" Bai Luo Yin shouted. Bai Han Qi was trying to put his phone card back together, but he found out that it was a futile attempt. In the end, he threw the phone card inside his room. "Isn't it inside the second drawer?" "I searched it already, it's not there!" Bai Han Qi walked towards Bai Luo Yin, picked up a yellow ointment. "Isn't it this one?" Ma Ying Long Hemorrhoids Ointment....... Bai Luo Yin's face darkened. "This is near my mouth, and you used hemorrhoid ointment on me?!"
75
Are you Addicted? "What about it?" Bai Han Qi smiled widely. "Last time your grandma got beriberi, I used this to cure it too!" "Beriberi and inflammation, is it the same thing??" "Is it different? That 502 glue, it can be used on plastic and can be used on shoes too, right? Don't look at what kind of ointment it is, the most important thing is your mouth has healed, and it's really working, right? You see, isn't it getting better?" Bai Han Qi said while reaching for Bai Luo Yin's mouth. Bai Luo Yin angrily pushed Bai Han Qi, went inside the room, then shut the door. Bai Han Qi knocked the door while shouting, "It's not that I don't want to spend any money, but this medicine is really working. This is a multipurpose medicine. If you do not believe me, then just ask the doctor! The doctor would definitely say that this medicine can cure everything." There was no movement from the other side. Bai Han Qi knocked the door repeatedly. "Son, you applied this cream for so many days already, just apply this for a few more days, it will be fine." Bai Luo Yin couldn't sleep that night. ....... The next morning, another sad day finally started again. Bai Luo Yin's life already became a routine: he struggled with Gu Hai at day, and when he went home at night he has to keep himself busy with Shi Hui. Bai Luo Yin was mentally exhausted. That day was also one disaster after another. When Bai Luo Yin woke up today, his nose was stuffed. He sat up and looked around, he found out that his blanket was on the floor. The cold was unavoidable. Bai Luo Yin wore one more layer of clothing, and on the way to school, he stopped by at a small clinic. The doctor examined him and gave him a pack of Bai Jia Hei medicine [1]. When he arrived at school, Bai Luo Yin didn't take a look at the medicine, just took out one pill and ate it. As a result, he found out that he just ate one pill of black medicine. Bai Luo Yin suddenly remembered one sentence. "Eat the white pill in the day, and you won't be sleepy; eat the black pill at night, and you will sleep well." 76
你丫上瘾了? ------_________________________ [1] Bai Jia Hei medicine: literally, this medicine is called 'White plus Black'. It is a popular, over-thecounter cold medicine in China. The brand slogan is translated as, "White pill for the day, will not make you sleepy. Black pill for the night, you will sleep soundly." The success of this medicine is probably due to the usage of powerful and intuitive codes to communicate with the consumers, white symbolizing day and black symbolizing night. They give a sense of balance and harmony with the nature, e.g.: yin and yang.

Chapter 25: Bai Luo Yin's Accident. Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From morning class until the noon break, Bai Luo Yin's head hadn't lift up, not even once. This called for Gu Hai's prank again. Gu Hai didn't feel comfortable if he was only idling alone at the back. He tried many ways to wake Bai Luo Yin up, but he wouldn't wake up. He even hit Bai Luo Yin's chair hard, causing everyone to stare at him, but Bai Luo Yin didn't move at all. The third class was Luo Xiao Yu's class. Luo Xiao Yu really likes to call Bai Luo Yin's name to answer her questions. This lesson was no exception. Three words, "Bai Luo Yin" can be heard loud and clear, it made the whole class stare at Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin's right cheek had a red mark from his sleep, but he still stood up, and gave the right answer. This kind of thing had always happened since a long time ago, and everyone got used to it already. But Gu Hai was the kind of person who always wanted to get to the bottom of something. He was a person full of curiosity. Since the day he knew Bai Luo Yin, he always doubted that Bai Luo Yin was really sleeping, how can people sleep but still able to listen to the lessons? Many students told him that it is Bai Luo Yin's special ability, but he just couldn't believe it. He thought, Bai Luo Yin definitely isn't sleeping. To find out whether he was right or wrong, after the third class had finished, he went to the school infirmary to buy two sleeping pills. After that he came back, grinded the pills until it became powder, then he put them into Bai Luo Yin's water bottle. Until the afternoon class started, Bai Luo Yin's head was still dizzy. Bai Luo Yin felt that his mouth was dry, so he picked his water bottle up and drank a few gulps.
78
你丫上瘾了? This is weird... why does his water felt a little bit astringent today. The more he drinks, the thirstier he gets! Bai Luo Yin drank all of his water. After he drank everything, Bai Luo Yin rapidly felt sleepier. This time, he slept like a log. The first two lessons, the teacher didn't ask Bai Luo Yin to answer the questions, so Gu Hai's speculation couldn't be verified. The third and fourth period was self-study. The class was quiet so it was a really good atmosphere for sleeping. Bai Luo Yin didn't move at all, even when one of his books fell to the ground, he was still unconscious. The class representative began to collect the homework. When he arrived at Bai Luo Yin's desk, he called him softly. "Bai Luo Yin, your math homework." There was no response from Bai Luo Yin. The class representative was worried, he patted Bai Luo Yin's head. "Hey, wake up. You have to give me your homework." You Qi also turned his head around and bluffed to scare him, "The teacher is coming!" Bai Luo Yin still didn't budge. This time, the students around him were anxious. Usually, every time Bai Luo Yin slept, he was still aware of his surroundings. When someone called him, or whenever he has something important to do, he would still wake up. But, what happened to him today? You Qi tried to lift Bai Luo Yin's head, his expression changed. "Why is his face so pale?" This sentence brought back Gu Hai's attention, that was lost somewhere else. He's not allergic to the sleeping pills... right? Thinking about it, Gu Hai hurriedly went to Bai Luo Yin's seat, one hand helped to hold Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, one hand patted Bai Luo Yin's face, trying to call his name. "Bai Luo Yin? Bai Luo Yin?" No response. You Qi was really anxious. "He passed out. Quick, bring him to the infirmary!" While he was speaking, he tried to carry Bai Luo Yin on his back. But he couldn't stand up, as a result, both of them fell down. 79
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai, who was on their side, couldn't bear to watch it, he pushed You Qi. "Step aside, I will carry him." He carried Bai Luo Yin with one arm, shifted him onto his back, waited until he's stable on his back, and he hurriedly carry him downstairs, You Qi was following him. "Say, how do you manage to carry him just like you're carrying a bird?" You Qi was already short of breath. Even though he had nothing with him, but he still couldn't keep up with Gu Hai's speed. Bai Luo Yin, although he wasn't light, but for Gu Hai who's always exercising, it was nothing. In less than a minute, both of them had arrived at the school infirmary, and he laid Bai Luo Yin down onto the bed. The school doctor was a young woman. When she saw that two handsome guys carrying one sick and handsome guy too, she was really excited. "Hey, Gu Hai. Why did you come again?" Before when Gu Hai bought the sleeping pills, she was asking all sorts of questions, this kind of person made Gu Hai felt really uncomfortable. When he finally got out, he let out a sigh of relief, thinking that he won't be coming back again, not knowing that he would return again this soon. You Qi asked Gu Hai, "Do you know her?" Gu Hai didn't answer, his gaze was fixed on Bai Luo Yin. When the school doctor looked at You Qi, her face suddenly brightened. "You... Are you You Qi?" You Qi nodded halfheartedly. "So you're that school prince! I saw your image is really similar to what they have been talking about, but I didn't know that I would've guessed it right! I'll tell you this, the last two girls who went here for a checkup, they were always talking about you..." You Qi looked at Gu Hai's face expression, he suddenly felt really cautious and nervous. "Hurry up and take a look at him," You Qi, discarding his cold persona, anxiously urged the school doctor, "The patient is over there, you'd better go and examine him." The school doctor walked towards Bai Luo Yin, her eyes brightened. "Isn't he Bai Luo Yin?"
80
你丫上瘾了? A cold voice heavily zoomed to the school doctor's ear, "If you speak nonsense one more time, I'll have this school infirmary closed by tomorrow."

Chapter 26: You are the Medicine. Translator: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"He only ate two tablets of sleeping pills?" Gu Hai gazed at You Qi, You Qi thought carefully, suddenly his expression changed, "I saw a strip of medicine on his desk. But I didn't really pay close attention to the type of medicine. When he came here this morning, he caught a cold, so I suppose it's a cold medicine." The school doctor concentrated for a moment, her eyes was focused on You Qi's face. "How about this, you bring that strip of medicine here. I'll take a look at it." When You Qi walked out, Gu Hai walked closer to the sickbed, sat quietly at the edge of the bed, then silently watched Bai Luo Yin. He had never seen Bai Luo Yin with such a gentle expression before, the contour of his whole face was smoothed out. Even if Gu Hai were to verbally abuse him right now, it probably wouldn't disturb his peaceful dream. "Don't worry, he's fine, his vitals doesn't indicate any problems. I suspect that when he ate the two types of medicine at the same time, it creates a slight diazepam overdose [1]. He will be okay by the time he wakes up. Just remember later, when taking sleeping pills for the first time, don't take it in such a large dose. One tablet is enough." Gu Hai had been silent, his face was solemn. Then, You Qi came in, bringing the strip of medicine and hand it over to the school doctor. "Look, it's exactly a cold medicine." The school doctor nodded, walked over to stroke Bai Luo Yin's forehead and softly spoke, "Looks like he needs an IV drip, he is a bit feverish and coupled with the drug overdose, these caused physical weakness and sleepiness." The school doctor went to another room, You Qi walked over to Bai Luo Yin and said to Gu Hai,"I will take care of him, you can go back, one person is enough." "You go back." These three words carried light tone, but the listener could feel the heavy pressure pressing down on them. 82
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai covered Bai Luo Yin's body with blanket. When You Qi saw Gu Hai's behavior, his state of mind became rather complicated. In other people's sight, Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin are completely incompatible just like fire and water, but in You Qi's eyes, Gu Hai likes Bai Luo Yin, it can be said that he really likes him. Gu Hai won't take the initiative to greet anybody, yet he doesn't mind taking the trouble to tease Bai Luo Yin every single time; he is neither coldhearted nor warmhearted towards other people, but when it comes to Bai Luo Yin, he shows unusual enthusiasm; Gu Hai has always think of a way to torment Bai Luo Yin, yet when something really bad happened to him, Gu Hai is actually the most anxious person... Other people wouldn't be able to guess, Bai Luo Yin wouldn't be able to understand, but You Qi can comprehend. This is just like a boy experiencing love for the first time, when facing the girl he likes, he never know how to convey his feelings. Thus, he is not tired of teasing that girl, pulling her pigtails, stealing her exercise book, and bully her until both of her eyes are red... Although Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai are both guys, their relationship has not reached that level yet. Nevertheless, the purpose is all the same, which is to attract the other person's attention. In this class, Bai Luo Yin is the only friend that Gu Hai wished to interact with. The rule of male friendship is exactly this way, you are more powerful than I am, I admire you, and only then, I will take the initiative to mess around you. That's why You Qi had always said that Gu Hai admired Bai Luo Yin. In fact, it's not only Gu Hai, but You Qi himself also admires Bai Luo Yin very much. Bai Luo Yin had a unique kind of charm. This kind of appeal would become stronger as a person grows older. He was just like a brilliant Tanhua [2], the most silent flower of them all, but inevitably a man would appear and for the sake of seeing the flower blooming once, he was willing to wait persistently for three thousand years. "I will prescribe you a medicine then." The school doctor's short sentence interrupted You Qi's reverie. "Prescribe what medicine?" The school doctor smiled tenderly and sincerely, "You've finally make a trip here, so it must not be in vain. There's a lot of supplements for brain nourishment right here. You can bring some of them home, studying in high school is very tiring, so you need to supply your brain with nutrition every day." You Qi threw a glance at the school doctor, "You drink it by yourself then." 83
Are you Addicted? "..." Gu Hai kept staring at Bai Luo Yin for a long time. The longer he stared, the more he felt that Bai Luo Yin resembled someone. Even though the appearance of that person was somewhat blurred, nevertheless the sight of Bai Luo Yin's nose and mouth put together caused Gu Hai to experience a kind of Déjà vu. "Ng... *cough*, *cough*..." Bai Luo Yin's cough disrupted Gu Hai's deep thoughts. "I'm so thirsty..." A few moments ago, Bai Luo Yin had a dream, he dreamt of himself becoming Kua Fu [3], continuously running after the sun. Quick, chase it. The more he chased it, the thirstier he became. He hadn't passed the Huanghe River yet, but the thirst had already waked him up. A sweet and refreshing liquid flowed into his mouth, Bai Luo Yin's parched lips and tongue were fully hydrated. His hand stretched out to hold the glass, but he touched another person's hand instead. Those palms were strong and the joints were welldefined. Bai Luo Yin tried to take the glass from that person's hand, but he only managed to grab at the glass edges instead. Gu Hai pushed Bai Luo Yin's wandering hands and placed the glass on his lips, gently and carefully tipping the glass so that the water flowed into Bai Luo Yin's mouth. When Bai Luo Yin felt that he had drink enough, he pushed Gu Hai's hand away. "Dad, I'm not thirsty anymore." Gu Hai's strained face during the whole afternoon finally showed a smiling expression, "Why are you being so polite?" Bai Luo Yin felt something fishy. He opened his eyes little by little and was met with Gu Hai's face, his eyes suddenly turned icy afterwards. "Why is it you?" "You don't recognize your father already?" Bai Luo Yin reached out his hand to thrash Gu Hai, but Gu Hai forced his hand down. "Stop moving around, there's a needle sticking out of your hand." Bai Luo Yin just realized that there was a needle in his hand and an IV bag above his head. "What happened?" 84
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai explained the series of events to Bai Luo Yin, from the beginning to the end. He didn't conceal anything at all and he also didn't show any remorse. He acted as if giving Bai Luo Yin sleeping pills was a pursuit of truth, a process of exploring a great mystery. In that process, it was as if the difficult one was Bai Luo Yin, and the person to screw up at the critical moment was also Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin really wanted to let the doctor prescribe two pounds of Suxiao Jiuxin pills [4] for him. "How about this, you tell me what have I done to provoke you. I will apologize to you." This sentence was spoken by Bai Luo Yin, he is truly fed up already. Gu Hai is able to pay for his own squandering, but Bai Luo Yin can't. Gu Hai can ruin his own uniform and replace it with a new one the next day, but Bai Luo Yin only have that one pair of uniform; Gu Hai can get injured and spend the night at the hospital, but the price of one IV drip is worth ten days of Bai Luo Yin's allowance... Gu Hai finally figured out Bai Luo Yin's train of thought and started to speak right away. "I can afford all of your economic loss, but for me to stop teasing you, I cannot do that." Bai Luo Yin heavily pounded his own head on the pillow. Staring at Gu Hai, he was unable to restrain his anger. "Are you fucking sick?" [5] Gu Hai laughed coolly, "Yes, I am sick." "If you're sick, then go take your medicine." "You are my medicine." Bai Luo Yin looked at Gu Hai coldly, "What do you mean?" "If you want me to recover, you have to endure the suffering." "........" _________________________ [1] Diazepam (Valium) is medicine that produces a calming effect. It is mainly used to treat anxiety disorders, trouble sleeping and seizures. The overdose of this drug can cause extreme drowsiness, loss of balance, weak muscles, fainting, or may even induce coma. In the chapter above, the cold medicine that Bai Luo Yin took (the black pill) probably contains an ample amount of diazepam, as the black pill helps to sleep at night. And combined with the sleeping pills, the calming effect is doubled and causes Bai Luo Yin's body to enter a really deep sleep. [2] Tanhua is the Chinese name for Queen of the Night or Nightblooming Cereus (Epiphyllum oxypetalum), a pure white flower with the size of a dinner plate. This flower only blooms at night and wilt/close when the sun rises the next day. In Chinese idiom, 曇花一翾 (a flower that vanished as soon
85
Are you Addicted? as it blooms), this flower is used to describe someone with an impressive but brief moment of glory, since this flower may take a year to bloom and only blooms over a single night. [3] Kua Fu is a giant in Chinese mythology who wished to capture the Sun. He followed the Sun from the East to the West and drained all water sources to quench his thirst. In the end, he wasn't able to finish his quest as he died of the extreme heat and exhaustion. In modern Chinese usage, this story can be used to describe a person who failed to obtain his goal because he greatly overestimates himself. [4] Suxiao Jiuxin pill is a Chinese herbal medicine to treat angina pectoris, a feeling of discomfort and pain within the chest due to anxiety. Angina pectoris is also a symptom of cardiac arrest. In short, this pill is a medicine to treat heart attack.

But I used sick, since it is more fitting to Gu Hai's retort.

Chapter 27: The fate of the government official's son.
Translator: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The first monthly exam results had been distributed. Gu Hai saw his own results of each subjects and it was much higher than his expectations. His face turned bright because he thought that although he didn't spend much time studying at that time, he can still get this kind of results. "How much is your score?" Gu Hai actually wanted to know the exam results of this guy, whose activity was sleeping all day long. "Are you talking about the total score?" Gu Hai nodded, "I got 521, how about you?" "I didn't count it." "Give it to me, I'll count it for you." Bai Luo Yin hadn't answered yet, but Gu Hai had already snatched each of Bai Luo Yin's exam papers. He intended to use this occasion to taunt Bai Luo Yin. After all, except for his strong points at sports, Gu Hai really can't beat Bai Luo Yin in any aspects. "Maths, 150..." Gu Hai was extremely surprised. He matched the paper with the name and it was really Bai Luo Yin, furthermore it was full marks. Although the average score for maths was relatively high in their class, nevertheless seeing a student getting full marks made him feel like next to nothing. "Chinese Literature, 126..." Gu Hai was once again dumbfounded, he looked at his own results, which was 96 points, the difference was a whole 30 marks. Gu Hai browsed all the way through Bai Luo Yin's exam paper, he discovered that the difference in the composition part alone was 15 marks, Bai Luo Yin's composition was almost full marks. "This is not fair..." Gu Hai tried to stay calm, "Even if you were to exchange your composition with my handwriting, certainly it's not worth 40 marks." Bai Luo Yin didn't want to acknowledge this kind of person. 87
Are you Addicted? "Comprehensive Science 237, English 131... Total score is 694? " With this kind of grades, he can take the college entrance exam in Beijing University and come out as the top scorer. How's this possible? Gu Hai doesn't believe it, Bai Luo Yin is always sleeping throughout the whole class, and yet he can come out with this kind of exam results? Where's the justice? "Did you cheat?" "The person in front of me is You Qi, behind my back is you, who can I cheat?" You Qi's whose total score is around 400, is even worse. A female beside them noticed Gu Hai's disbelief, she couldn't resist to add a few words, "Bai Luo Yin's rank is the highest in this class. He has always ranked as one of the top five in this school." Gu Hai finally understood now, the reason why Luo Xiao Yu is very obedient towards Bai Luo Yin is because the students around him have always praised him as a particularly intelligent student. Originally, he mistook this person as someone who's always sleeping and absent-minded. After quarreling for half day, a calculating plan actually exists in this person's brain. No matter how frustrating it is, in the end, you are the one who always hold back. "You are too terrible!" Gu Hai chucked Bai Luo Yin's nape once. I'm terrible? Bai Luo Yin reasoned, if it were up to Heaven's justice, the person behind him would have been chopped to death already. "How am I terrible?" "You've destroyed my ability to gain knowledge." Bai Luo Yin sneered and fought back ruthlessly, "You've also destroyed my ability to tolerate foolish people." Gu Hai had yet to burst out when a thunderous sound suddenly diverted everyone's attention towards the door. A stranger used his foot to kick the backdoor open, causing the paper scraps on the ground to scatter apart. The expression of this person was mean and vicious; his body language implied an aura akin to a character in Street Fighter. "Bai Luo Yin, you fucking bastard!" The unexpected vulgar language caused the rowdy class to fall silent in an instant.
88
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin coldly shifted his gaze and his eyes landed on the face that he abhorred the most. This person was called Wu Fang. Since the beginning of high school, he and Bai Luo Yin were never in a good relationship. The reason was very simple, the girl that he pursued was secretly in love with Bai Luo Yin. Furthermore, he was picked up and dropped off by a company car all day long. He was also the son of a wealthy and influential government official, the school principals even respected him to a certain degree. That's why he couldn't bear the thought of a poor guy standing above him all the time. "Bai Luo Yin, I'll tell you this, you better be good to me, or else I'll expose your shameful past. Supposed if I really expose it, let's see whether you're still brave enough to attend this school! Don't think that because of your good grades, you can do whatever you like. Although you have the highest rank in the whole school, the day you piss me off will be day you get out of here." Bai Luo Yin stood up and headed towards Wu Fang, his words icy sharp yet calm. "What kind of shameful past I have? Why don't you say it out loud, I'll listen to you." Wu Fang laughed flippantly and presumptuously, "You really want me to speak? I'm afraid that when I'm finished, you will be crying, kneeling on the ground and begging me to spare you." A brief yet chilly voice sounded out, "If you have the guts, then say it." "Fine, remember that you are the one who allowed me to speak. Everybody, listen up, I'll only say this once. Your classmate, Bai Luo Yin is a motherless bastard whose mother gave birth to him, but abandoned him. Do you all realize what does his mother do? If I say it, you will be very shocked. Wait a minute. It's not called that way anymore, the term has changed, now it's called the young woman who has taken a wrong step in life... Hahaha..." The class was filled with boos and hisses, some expressed their shock, while others showed their disgust, but most of them didn't believe that Bai Luo Yin had that kind of mother. They think that Wu Fang was envious, so he intentionally fabricated that fact to humiliate Bai Luo Yin. From the beginning to the end, Bai Luo Yin didn't utter even one word, his expression was blank, only the blood vessels of his upper arms stood out, pulsating continuously. "Look at Bai Luo Yin. You can see that he is his mother's illegitimate child right away. In any case, a motherless person would have the same alarmed look like him." Bai Luo Yin had already walked over to Wu Fang's side and lifted his arms. Right at that second, Bai Luo Yin's face was suddenly sprayed with a gush of blood. 89
Are you Addicted? Wu Fang had yet to understand what had happened just now, Bai Luo Yin was also astonished, Gu Hai raised his fist the second time and punched him again. One side of Wu Fang's face was out of shape. A huge spurt of blood flowed down from his nostrils to the gap between his teeth, Wu Fang painfully cried 'ow ow' repeatedly. "Fuck you! You dare to punch me?" Wu Fang pounced at Gu Hai but Gu Hai used his foot to kick Wu Fang's kneecap ruthlessly. A loud sound of cracking bones could be heard, causing extreme terror. Wu Fang gave a bloodcurdling scream then fell to the ground. Then, Gu Hai grabbed his uniform collar and dragged him from the classroom's backdoor entrance towards the front door entrance. Bang! Everyone in the corridors could hear the sound of a slap. At first, there're still people running towards them, trying to mediate the both of them. However, after witnessing the scene on the ground, everybody was frightened and turned ignorant. Wu Fang's entire face was battered, he was beaten by Gu Hai until his face resembled a pile of tattered cotton. His chin was crooked already and both of Gu Hai's fists had caused four of Wu Fang's teeth to fell off, that when he spat it out, he could hardly breathe. "Apologize!" Gu Hai pointed at Bai Luo Yin. Wu Fang wept, "Damn it, why should I apologize to him? You hit me one more time, tomorrow I will put you behind the bars. If you don't believe me, just try me." Wu Fang's words made sense. Supposed if Gu Hai was really an ordinary senior high school student, regardless of his status background, him entering the prison would be unavoidable, especially after he reduced the son of a government official to such a degree. Gu Hai's fist was covered with blood, he placed his left hand on Wu Fang's head while his right hand kept on punching Wu Fang. A sound of shattering could be heard. Half of Wu Fang's face had collapsed inwards. A few girls who passed by was so scared that they immediately shrieked. This also frightened the teachers that happened to pass by as well. Rather than stopping the scene straightaway, they hastily called the security guard to come instead. "Apologize!" 90
你丫上瘾了? Wu Fang's tears flooded from his eyes. He was groaning in pain while crying, as if he was quickly approaching death. One male student from the class who had watched the scene carefully couldn't stand it any longer. He walked to Gu Hai's side and warned him with good intentions, "Gu Hai, don't beat him anymore! You will get into trouble!" Gu Hai didn't listen to him at all, he kicked Wu Fang's thigh instead. "Apologize!" Wu Fang's body recoiled in pain, twitching on the ground like a small shrimp. Bai Luo Yin quietly stood at the corner, he was extremely shocked that he became speechless. He didn't understand, why would Gu Hai go berserk to such an extent just to defend him from the injustice. You Qi pushed Bai Luo Yin, "You try to persuade him. If this thing keeps on going, there'll be an accident." Bai Luo Yin walked forward, he hadn't opened his mouth yet, but Gu Hai had already lifted three fingers. "I'm going to count to three, if you still refuse to apologize, I will directly throw you down the window. If you don't believe me, just try." "One, two,..." Wu Fang suddenly held tightly onto Gu Hai's leg. His whole face was badly mangled that people wouldn't be able to tell what does his real face looks like. "I'm... I'm sorry..." As soon as Wu Fang opened his mouth, a huge surge of thick blood flowed from his mouth. When the surrounding people saw it, they were so scared that everyone took a step back. Gu Hai abruptly manhandled Wu Fang, forcing him to kneel on the ground and pushed his head down in front of Bai Luo Yin's feet. "Say that you are his grandson, and you are a bastard. " Wu Fang paused. Bai Luo Yin realized that this turn of events was far from good. At first he wanted to intervene and stop Gu Hai from going overboard. But unfortunately, he was one step too late. Gu Hai landed a punch and Wu Fang's gums swollen. "Enough!" Bai Luo Yin yanked Gu Hai firmly, "Hurry up, take him to the hospital." "Stand up!" 91
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai roared at Bai Luo Yin. Ever since the first time Bai Luo Yin knew Gu Hai, he had never seen Gu Hai acting like this. There aren't enough words to describe how cruel and terrifying he is. "Apologize!" Gu Hai's furious voice echoed throughout the whole corridor, even the sunlight outside didn't dare to shine on this particular dark and ice-cold corner. Wu Fang's face was still plastered to Bai Luo Yin's feet "I am... your... grandson... *sob*... I am a bas-... bastard... *sob*" Gu Hai tossed Wu Fang away and stood up, the entire front of his uniform was stained with blood. Bai Luo Yin stood silently between the two males, his heart hollow. The siren of 120 Ambulance Service [1] resonated. The crowd of students watching the scene dispersed as they became weak at their knees. Nearly everyone went back to their classrooms. The medical personnel hastily ran to the classroom door. On the verge of shock, they supported and lifted Wu Fang up to the stretcher. Ten minutes later, everything returned back to their normal, peaceful state. The blood outside had been thoroughly cleaned up by the workers, who scrubbed the stain carefully. Nevertheless, the metallic smell of blood still seeped through the windows and drifted into the classroom, causing everyone's heart to shudder. "Gu Hai, come out for a moment." Bai Luo Yin turned his head to look at Gu Hai for a long period of time. His seat was already empty. Many students were discussing, afraid that perhaps Gu Hai might not return this time. _________________________ [1] 120 is a speed dial for ambulance service in Beijing

Chapter 28: When Attitude Begin to Change. Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After two classes passed, Gu Hai's shadow didn't even show up, and no one heard about his situation as well. During break time, everyone was talking about Gu Hai's fate, meanwhile Bai Luo Yin was only slouching on his desk, his eyes were wide open. When he saw that it was time to go home, Bai Luo Yin immediately packed his schoolbag and walked out from the backdoor. He went straight to the security department office. Bai Luo Yin had already planned if the worst case possible happened. If something bad were to happen to Gu Hai, he would lower his pride and find help from Jiang Yuan. Although he wasn't really fond of Gu Hai, but this time Gu Hai had become a scapegoat because of him. If Gu Hai didn't lend a hand to Bai Luo Yin, he would've been the one who's being interrogated right now. Bai Luo Yin was in a deep thought when he was going down the stairs, he replayed the scene where Gu Hai gave a lesson to Wu Fang in his mind, over and over again. He didn't even see that there was a person standing in front of him. "Why did you come here?" Bai Luo Yin stopped for a moment and saw Gu Hai standing at the end of the stairs. Both of them didn't move. They were looking at each other, there was one-meter distance between them. This is the first time Bai Luo Yin looked at Gu Hai with a normal stare. "Are you... going back to collect your things?" Bai Luo Yin asked. Gu Hai went up two steps, looking relaxed. "How did you know so much about me?" "Are you still going to come back?" "Still come back for what?" Bai Luo Yin's expression changed. He grabbed Gu Hai's arm, and showed his anxious face. "I've wronged you. I will look for someone to get you out." Gu Hai went silent for a moment, then he suddenly laughed. 93
Are you Addicted? "What are you talking about? I'm going to go back to eat, sleep, and tomorrow I will still return here. Where are you going to get me out from?" Bai Luo Yin's thoughts were running like a train, but when he heard Gu Hai's words, his nervousness and anxiety suddenly stopped. "How come nothing's happened to you?" Gu Hai chuckled. "Why do you want something to happen to me?" Bai Luo Yin didn't speak a word. Gu Hai patted his shoulder, "I'm going okay, I come back here just to pick up my things." "Wait." Gu Hai felt Bai Luo Yin clutching at his arm tightly, "What happened? You still don't believe me? If I said it's okay, then it's really okay." "It's not like that." Bai Luo Yin took off Gu Hai's uniform, which was stained with blood, and then he took off his own uniform and gave it to Gu Hai. "Just wear this to class." After he finished speaking, Bai Luo Yin went straight to home. Gu Hai wore the uniform that was covered with holes, he stood still on the stairs for a long time. Regardless of his ever-present scowling face, his uniform is actually very fragrant. Bai Luo Yin walked home shirtless, the wind was blowing really strong that evening, it was quite cold and he couldn't help but to rub his arms. After passing one block, an aunt, who's always sweeping the streets and knew well of every students who passed by to go to and from school, saw that Bai Luo Yin was freezing. Her heart felt tight and then she said, "You can wear one of my clothes and go back." "I'm fine, auntie, I can just run and I won't feel cold anymore." "Oh, okay.... Just be careful of the cars on the street!" Passing through an intersection, Bai Luo Yin should've turned west, but his foot took him from south to the north sidewalk instead. It was peak time for people to get off from work and it was a sea of people everywhere. Bai Luo Yin was in the middle of the bustling crowd, when he suddenly felt his surroundings become cold and lonely.
94
你丫上瘾了? "You classmate Bai Luo Yin, is a bastard with a mother to give birth to him, but not to raise him." ............... Although Wu Fang had already been given a lesson pretty badly, but Bai Luo Yin would still remember that particular sentence forever. Gu Hai went home by taxi, he stopped at the traffic light, and saw Bai Luo Yin's figure from behind. Actually, his back is easy to be recognized, especially because Bai Luo Yin didn't wear any uniform, with his handsome figure and neat steps, he was really outstanding even when he's in the middle of a huge crowd. "Master, could you please stop the car in front of that corner?" "Okay." Gu Hai went down from the taxi, directly walked behind Bai Luo Yin. He wanted to know, what is Bai Luo Yin doing until this late, instead of going home. They passed by a lot of streets, the sky was getting dark, and Bai Luo Yin stopped in front of a food stall. "Boss, give me 5 draft beers, 20 pork skewers, 5 beef ligaments, 5 chicken gristle, 3 fish skewers...." Bai Luo Yin listed all of the foods he wanted to eat, and then he found a place to sit. Soon, the beer came to his table and Bai Luo Yin immediately drank them with big gulps, and slowly began to peel the peanuts. "You ordered so many foods by yourself, can you finish them all?" When he heard the familiar voice, Bai Luo Yin lifted up his head, only to see Gu Hai standing in front of him. His calm expression remained the same. Although Bai Luo Yin was still doubtful when Gu Hai said that he didn't receive any punishments, but so far he didn't see any signs of worry on Gu Hai's face. "Boss, give me another set of bowl and chopsticks!" Bai Luo Yin shouted. Gu Hai smiled really happily, "My slave-life has finally turned over!" Bai Luo Yin drank two mouthfuls of beer, his tone seems to be lacking its usual sting and indifference, "If you want something cheaper, then just go somewhere else." Gu Hai just kept silent, picked up a pork skewer and put it into his mouth, it tasted pretty good.
95
Are you Addicted? Previously, he always thought that foods from the roadside stalls were very dirty, but now that he's sitting here, looking at the lively and messy scenery around him, it unexpectedly made him feel really hungry.
96
你丫上瘾了?
Chapter 29: Drinking on the Street to your Heart's Content Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Don't drink too much, it's bad for your stomach." Gu Hai grabbed the glass in Bai Luo Yin's hand, but Bai Luo Yin took it back again and drank it bottoms up. After he finished his drink, he hiccupped and continued to eat the meat skewer on his other hand. Gu Hai suddenly took the skewer that Bai Luo Yin was eating, and stuffed it into his own mouth. Bai Luo Yin's face fell, "There are a lot of foods here, why on earth did you steal mine?" "Because it makes me happy." Bai Luo Yin's face darkened, he turned his head and shouted towards the inside of the stall, "Boss, give me one more beer!" Gu Hai was surprised for a moment, he stopped Bai Luo Yin, and shouted to the owner, "It's enough, boss! No need to bring it here!" "If you only want to cause trouble for me, just get lost!" In the end, Gu Hai couldn't restrain Bai Luo Yin, Bai Luo Yin drank a lot and ate a lot as well. Bai Luo Yin started to speak more and more. Gu Hai knew that he had too much already. "Actually, my mother is not like that. Although my mother never cared for me at all since I was small until now, but she never did those kinds of things. She simply looked down on my father, that's all. She's just being realistic, and wants to live in luxury..." "I believe you." Gu Hai couldn't help but smile, "Luckily, you still can see your mother. My mother is already gone." Bai Luo Yin looked at Guhai in disbelief. All this time, he always thought that Gu Hai's life situation is really good, to the point that it's getting boring for him so he just keep looking for other people's fault. "I know what you're thinking about." Gu Hai lit a cigarette and looked at Bai Luo Yin with a faint smile, "Besides you, have you ever seen me tease other people?" 97
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin extended his hand, then Gu Hai passed him one cigarette. The smoke was lingering before their eyes, as if the other people around them doesn't seem to exist. "You've already known about my family matters since the beginning?" Bai Luo Yin asked. Gu Hai nodded, "I knew a little bit." "So the reason why you've always been searching for my faults, and provoke me afterwards, is all just for you to console your heart, is it true?" Gu hai stubbed out his cigarette, drank one gulp of beer, and held back his laugh. "This isn't called 'searching for your faults' . This is called caring. I'm using a special way to love you." "Don't use my tolerance to feed your shamelessness." After Bai Luo Yin said those words, he laughed, Gu Hai also laughed. As they laughed together, the hatred between both of them just vanished away. Gu Hai kept on grilling the pork skewers, while Bai Luo Yin continued to drink. As he watched Gu Hai busying himself in front of the hot grill, Bai Luo Yin suddenly felt that this man has become quite approachable. Maybe it was because of their common experience, which triggered a sympathy in Bai Luo Yin's heart. Perhaps it was Gu Hai's sense of justice that moved Bai Luo Yin. Maybe it was merely the effect of alcohol.... Bai Luo Yin suddenly wanted to pour his entire heart out to this person. "I have a lot of friends. They are always together when they're happy, but when they have difficulties, they just keep their own problems inside." Gu Hai then remembered his own friends. He couldn't refrain from lifting the corner of his mouth, "This is a common problem among men. Can't help it. Bai Luo Yin drank a lot of beer again, "I used to have a girlfriend. She is very pretty, and her family is really rich. But, we broke up. I have been sleeping a lot every day, because this matter is always bothering me......" During that night, Bai Luo Yin talked about many things and Gu Hai just kept silent beside him. Bai Luo Yin talked about his pain and his difficulties without any reservations, including how his family situation brought obstacles into his relationship, their unrealistic love because of his long-distance relationship with Shi Hui, as well as his worries about his future, the conflict with his own mother, and not to mention the painful hatred he had against the gap caused by social classes...
98
你丫上瘾了? After he finished listening to Bai Luo Yin, Gu Hai felt that Bai Luo Yin built up a barrier between them again. Obviously, they were getting a little bit closer earlier, but then this barrier separated them once more. Bai Luo Yin was completely drunk, he stood up to go and take a pee. Gu Hai actually managed to drag him to an empty space and told him to do it there. Bai Luo Yin used his hand to reach his pants and pull down his zipper, but actually, his pants didn't have any zipper at all, he had to pull it down to take it off. When he saw Bai Luo Yin was about to pee, Gu Hai's expression changed and quickly stopped Bai Luo Yin. "Don't pee yet! Take off your pants first, then you can do it!" "I took it off already!" Bai Luo Yin opened both of his hands, his red face letting out a silly smile. Gu Hai released a snort of amusement, "What did you take off? Isn't it still on your body?" Bai Luo Yin looked down, as expected the pants was still on his body. "Take it off for what, I can just pee right away, it saves the trouble." "Who do you save the trouble for?" Gu Hai darted towards to Bai Luo Yin's front, he used one hand to remove Bai Luo Yin's pants, while his other hand held Bai Luo Yin's hand and helped him to hold his member, "Hold this, now you can pee." Bai Luo Yin listened to Gu Hai obediently and started to pee. Gu Hai took advantage of the moonlight and stole a glance at Bai Luo Yin's member. Every guy definitely has one common problem. When he sees other people exposing their manhood, he would always make size comparisons between his own and others. After Bai Luo Yin finished, he looked at Gu Hai, "Aren't you going to pee?" "Not now." Bai Luo Yin pointed at Gu Hai's pants. "Then, you take your pants off too, let's compare who's bigger between the two of us." Gu Hai let out a wide smile, while pulling up Bai Luo Yin's pants he replied, "Next time... Next time..." Bai Luo Yin walked around tipsily, he would certainly bump into something every two steps. Gu Hai really couldn't stand it anymore, he crouched down to carry Bai Luo Yin up. Bai Luo Yin's arm rested on Gu Hai's shoulder and the hot air of his breath spread all over Gu Hai's entire neck. Gu Hai could feel his own neck burning hot and that's 99
Are you Addicted? because every time he bumped up, Bai Luo Yin's cheek would always nestle closely to his neck. "Are you sleepy?" Gu Hai asked. "Ng...?" Bai Luo Yin replied in a daze. Gu Hai's tone had never been this gentle, "Then just sleep. Sleep for a while and you'll soon arrive home." "Who is going to sleep? Who is going to sleep?" Bai Luo Yin suddenly raised his voice and punched Gu Hai's left cheek, "Do you want to cut my uniform with scissors again?" Half of Gu Hai's face was aching. The patience that he gives to other people would never come close to what he gives to Bai Luo Yin alone. Even he himself didn't understand why he couldn't get angry in front of this stupid guy. "You jerk!" Bai Luo Yin shouted towards the dark and empty street. "If you say things like that again, believe it or not, I will throw you into a ditch." Bai Luo Yin didn't speak a word, his breathing fell on Gu Hai's ear regularly. He fell asleep, perhaps with all those talks just now he could finally let go of the burden on his chest. Gu Hai continued to carry Bai Luo Yin, he felt that the wind that night wasn't really cold. "Mom....." A trail of hot liquid went down along Gu Hai's neck, flowed into his chest, and embedded inside his heart, awakening the emotions that he had been suppressing for such a long time. ............. "Uncle." Once Bai Han Qi saw Bai Luo Yin, he could finally release the anxiety in his heart, he hurriedly put Bai Luo Yin down from Gu Hai's back, his mouth constantly muttering to himself, "Finally found him! I'm not brave enough to talk about this matter with his grandmother, quick get inside the house!" "I'm not going inside." Gu Hai replied, then he took off the uniform he was wearing, and gave it to Bai Han Qi. "This is Bai Luo Yin's uniform, the weather is really cold, please give him more clothes later!" 100
你丫上瘾了? "Ey..." Bai Han Qi looked at Gu Hai gratefully, "Thank you so much for your help today." "It's nothing, today his mind wasn't at ease, so he drank a little bit of alcohol, he should be okay by tomorrow morning." Bai Han Qi nodded continuously. Seeing Gu Hai's retreating back, he couldn't help but to sigh. "What kind of family is capable of raising a child as good as him?"

Chapter 30: The Big Fight of Gu family's Father and Son. Translator : Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Gu Hai arrived home, it was already past 10 pm, the lights on his house was on, and he didn't know who opened the door. Gu Hai went inside his house and saw an unexpected figure sitting on the couch. Gu Wei Ting's face was frozen, his entire body giving out a formidable aura full of anger. His eyes followed Gu Hai's movement quietly and he pursed his lips firmly, as if he was waiting for Gu Hai to open his mouth first. Gu Hai didn't even spare a look at Gu Wei Ting, he calmly put down his school bag, took off his shoes, then he walked into his bedroom to change his clothes, only to discover that his wardrobe was already empty. "Where's my clothes?" Gu Wei Ting's heart suddenly sank, he hadn't seen Gu Hai for almost a month, if not because of the phone call from the school principal today, he would still be in the army camp right now. He came here not only in anger but with yearning as well, he took care of all the problems that Gu Hai made, and he only wanted to hear one word from Gu Hai's mouth, "Dad", yet the first words that Gu Hai said to him was asking about his own things. Gu Hai didn't receive any answer, his eyes shifted away from Gu Wei Ting's face, and soon he saw a suitcase on the floor. Gu Wei Ting didn't beat around the bush. "I packed your things already, come home with me right now. I will not say anything about your fight this afternoon. Tomorrow, I will send someone to take care of your school transfer procedures, go back to your old school. Jiang Yuan will bring his son too. Both of you will study at the same school, so you have to try to accept him as your brother." Gu Hai slowly turned his head and gazed at the night sky outside his window. "Don't ever expect that I will go back with you, not a chance!"
102
你丫上瘾了? After he said that, Gu Hai wanted to drag his suitcase back to his own room, but Gu Wei Ting's foot halted him and he couldn't be stirred at all. "You have to go back today. Even if you don't want to, you still have to go back. This is an order." Gu Hai looked at his father fiercely, "You are not my commander, you have no right to order me! Even if you want to kill me right now, I still won't live together with that family! Brother? What *** brother? I will only say this today, wherever that family stays, don't ever expect me to step into that place!" Gu Wei Ting abruptly stood up, strangled Gu Hai's neck, and easily dragged him to the window. Gu Hai's room was on 8th floor. Although Gu Wei Ting merely used a little bit force, Gu Hai would definitely fall down. "Fine, you prefer to be dead rather than to go home, right? Today I'll kill you, don't you ever shout if you have the guts, I will act as if I don't have a son like you!" Gu Hai clenched his jaw, his body was completely straight, and his dark eyes fused together with the night sky outside. Both of them refused to budge, Gu Wei Ting exerted more force to his hand, and Gu Hai's body got out even more easily. Gu Wei Ting saw that Gu Hai didn't struggle at all and suddenly withdrew the strength from his hand, then he pulled Gu Hai back inside. After all of this, Gu Hai didn't even feel anything, instead it was Gu Wei Ting who was actually sweating all over. "Are you satisfied now?" Gu Hai looked at Gu Wei Ting. "Please go back! I'm going to take a shower and sleep. I still have school tomorrow." "If I didn't provide you with everything, you think you'd be able to live this well? That you can easily rent a house more than one hundred square meters like this? I'll tell you this, I will cut off all of your allowances right now! In less than a month, you'll be begging for me to take you back! "Now that you've achieved your purpose, why are you still wasting your time to come here? You can cut off my allowance immediately, do it right now. Just go back and wait nicely! Just watch me, whether or not in one month, I will go to your door, lick your face and beg you!" "You think I wouldn't dare to do it?" "I've never think that way. You never have something that you wouldn't dare to do." Gu Wei Ting clenched his fists and frowned, giving off a ruthless and tyrannical aura. When he was still young and being faced with this kind of unfilial son, he would've shot and killed him already. But now that he's old, had lost a wife, and over 40 years old 103
Are you Addicted? already, he had just started to understand the meaning of a family, however that family has already fallen apart. "I don't have a son like you." After he said that, Gu Wei Ting left with a somber face. Gu Hai sat on the couch, dumbfounded for a while, then he breathed softly, he realized that he wasn't feeling that uncomfortable. Whenever he had a big fight with Gu Wei Ting in the past, on the outside Gu Hai would still seem happy, but that fight would still stuck inside his mind for a long time. But this time, on the outside he seemed happy, and on the inside, he still felt happy. Gu Hai's heart eventually felt a faint sense of joy. No allowance? So that means, in the future he is also a poor person? Then with this, he would be able to open the barrier between him and Bai Luo Yin. Is there anything else that would make him happier than this? Gu Hai looked as if he was possessed, he packed all of his things inside his room, then he phoned his landlord that late night, immediately tell him that he was going to move out from this place, and he intended to rent a single-storey house near Bai Luo Yin's house. The more damaged, the better. He also decided to sell all of the valuable things he had, especially his limited edition mobile phone, he wanted to change it to a secondhand, old phone; also the branded shoes on his feet, he has to replace it with the pirated-edition ones sold on the street stalls. He also removed his branded watch from his wrist, if it's really no good then he could just use a ballpoint pen to draw one. [1] _________________________ [1] 'He could just use a ballpoint pen to draw one': means that he can use a pen to draw a 'watch' on his wrist.

Chapter 31: Today, the weather is sunny. Translator : Estreline & Sienna7455 Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"It is currently 6 AM in Beijing." One early morning, Gu Hai was awakened by the announcement from his old-modeled phone. In the past, he used to wake up at exactly 5 AM every day. But yesterday he tossed around sleeplessly until late at night, he went around the night market to look for a shelter until midnight, and then after midnight he couldn't sleep because of the sound of crickets, by the time he could shut his eyes, it was already dawn. But Gu Hai was really excited, he went down from his single wooden crooked bed, put on his 30 yuan sneakers, simply washed himself a bit, and then he went out riding his secondhand bike. He felt really refreshed and happy all along the way. Whereas Bai Luo Yin was the opposite. This morning he woke up with a splitting headache, and he had no appetite at all. His memories from last night was blurred, he didn't know how did he manage to go home, he only remembered that he went to eat barbeque, then bumped into Gu Hai, they chatted for a while, and then he couldn't remember the rest. Bai Luo Yin glanced at the clock, it was already more than 6 AM, he was doomed to come late again today. After eating a bowl of bean curd at Aunt Zou's breakfast stall, he finally got his appetite back. When Bai Luo Yin was going to give the money to Aunt Zou, he asked, "Auntie, do you know how to wash off blood stain from clothes?" Bai Luo Yin concluded that every woman would definitely know. "Just soak it in cold water for a while, then rub it few times with sulfur soap. If you really can't wash it off then just give it to me, I will wash it for you." "No need. I can wash it by myself." After Bai Luo Yin paid for his meal, he didn't go to school immediately. However, he went home first and took Gu Hai's uniform, soaked it in cold water inside the laundry basin, then he went out. He hadn't walked that far, when he ran into Gu Hai who was riding a bike. 105
Are you Addicted? Even though Gu Hai's bike didn't have any bells, the entire frame creaked a lot when he rode it and it's quite noticeable. His brake wasn't working that well, but fortunately Gu Hai's legs was long enough to step on the ground quickly, so he was able to stop the bike smoothly. "Come, brother[1] will take you to school." Bai Luo Yin simply ignored Gu Hai's words and just kept on walking straight. "Your bike is really lousy, if I ride it too it will definitely collapse!" "You're walking, but you're still looking down on someone who's riding a bike?" Gu Hai was riding the bike, but he maintained the same speed with Bai Luo Yin's speed. When there's someone walking beside you, yet he's fooling around and making noisy movements, whether you are walking or riding a bike, of course you have to say few words to him. Bai Luo Yin was silent for a while, unconsciously he took a glance at Gu Hai, just to find that Gu Hai was staring at himself. "Are you riding a bike while looking at your side?" Bai Luo Yin warned him. Gu Hai's mouth let out a smile, "The front view is not as beautiful as my side view!" Bai Luo Yin pretended not to hear him. "So your family also lives around here?" "Right!" Gu Hai said as if he really meant it, "I've always lived in this area." "Then, why I've never met you before?" "Today is the first time I'm late! Before, every time I was riding my bike, you haven't even got up yet!" "I pretty much know everyone around this neighbourhood, what's your father's name?" Gu Hai deliberately changed the subject. "Why don't you ask about why am I late today?" Bai Luo Yin's mind was like a clear mirror, yet he pretended not to know anything. "How would I know." "You drank too much last night and I sent you back home, all the way to your front door. You held me so tight and didn't want to let me go at all. You didn't want to go inside."
106
你丫上瘾了? "Can you be even more thick-skinned than this?" Bai Luo Yin gave a disgusted look at Gu Hai, "Even if I were to hug someone, I won't hug you!" "You can't say that, who was the one crying and whining last night, causing me to listen to all of his sentimental past? I was eating the meat skewers, when you suddenly threw yourself at me and called me 'Hui er, Hui er' [2], giving me goosebumps......" Regarding the words he said last night, Bai Luo Yin still had some memories about it, but now when he think about it he felt really strange, those words from his deepest heart, how can he just blurt it out easily to this unreliable person? "Last night, there was a guy who drank too much, he didn't even take off his pants yet he wanted to pee. If I didn't help him to pull it down on time, his crotch would be still wet until now!" When Gu Hai was still busy with his own thoughts, Bai Luo Yin had already started to curse in his mind. "I said that I'm not going to pee, but this guy still asked me to take off my pants, and he wanted to compare whose is bigger. Bai Luo Yin, tell me, don't you think this guy is really shameless?" Gu Hai was mocking Bai Luo Yin, but at the same time, his mind just kept on replaying Bai Luo Yin's charming and innocent expression when he was drunk. The more he thinks about it, the funnier it gets, so he just laughed out lout without thinking. But his laughter annoyed Bai Luo Yin, so he took a couple of big steps. Gu Hai noticed that and cycled a bit faster. Unfortunately for Gu Hai, his bike was really lame, his speed hadn't increased yet, but Bai Luo Yin had already grabbed Gu Hai's back seat. Gu Hai felt his back sank a bit, Bai Luo Yin sat down on his bike already. "Just now when I told you to get on the bike, you didn't want to. So, I have to insult you first to make you ride this, huh?..... AH!! ... You dare to hit me sneakily?!" Gu Hai turned his head around and he saw Bai Luo Yin's back. "Eh... Why are you facing backwards?" "I'm not in the mood to look at you." The bike moved steadily on the road, the back seat was really narrow, two people could barely sit back to back, with a kappa posture they pass across one street by another. This is the first time Bai Luo Yin can see the roads in front of him with ease, in the past he would always walk to school in such a hurry, so he never realized that the morning air is this good. "Hey, so you carried me back home last night?" 107
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai smiled faintly, "So, finally you remembered?" "I'm just guessing." "I carried you twice already, when will you carry me too?" "Don't you have legs?" "You have legs too, then why did I carry you?" "You did it yourself, why are you asking me?" Gu Hai glanced for a moment, his hands were on the handlebars and started to make a U-turn, but when he turned, he ran over a pebble in the place where he slowed down. As a result, the bicycle jolted very hard as if it would fall apart. You could only imagine how Bai Luo Yin is feeling, sitting at the backseat. Bai Luo Yin avoided his fall by using all of his strength to hold on to the pipe at the back seat. At first, he mistook that probably this street was uneven, however he discovered that the bumps were getting worse. There's obviously a better road beside, yet this person refused to use that road. "Can you ride a bike properly?" "This is the highest level of cycling, I'm working out at the front, and you got massage treatments at the back, this is a natural way to improve your health!" Bai Luo Yin jabbed Gu Hai with his elbow, right on Gu Hai's waist. It felt numb, it's like Bai Luo Yin finally touched his switch. Gu Hai took a deep breath, his waist was still burning hot and he was pondering over the feeling of Bai Luo Yin's jab, actually it didn't feel that bad. Today's weather is truly a different kind of sunny. _________________________ [1] The term "Bro" that Gu Hai used refers to himself like a friend, not as a brother in the sense of siblings. [2] When Bai Luo Yin was calling "Hui er, Hui er" (慧儿〿慧儿), this refers to his ex-girlfriend's name, Shi Hui (石慧).

Chapter 32: Here, a pleasant scent permeates. Translator: Sienna7455 Proofreader: Estreline ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Returning home at noon, the water inside the bathtub had already turned yellow, Bai Luo Yin scooped up Gu Hai's uniform while observing it. Apparently, there was a large area of yellowish stain and it was pretty obvious, looks like it would be a bit difficult to wash off the stain. Bai Luo Yin rarely do the laundry, all of his clothes were washed by Bai Han Qi. Once in a while, when Bai Han Qi was not at home, he would wash some of his own clothes or his grandfather's and grandmother's, but it's very likely that he couldn't wash it clean enough. Bai Luo Yin fetched a small wooden stool, which was rather short. Considering his height, which was taller than 1.8 meter, it was actually a bit hard to stretch his feet. Nevertheless, he should bear with this kind of seating position, beside he thought that this thing will only take a while. In the end, Bai Luo Yin guessed wrong. Basically, this was not a matter that could be settled in a short time. Regardless of the type of soap he used, whether it was the detergent powder or Aunt Zou's sulfur soap, the stain would only fade a bit, but it couldn't be completely removed. Bai Luo Yin was already tired although he only washed for a while. This kind of exhaustion is completely different from the one after a physical exercise. Although physical exercise is tiring, but the mental state of mind will be relaxed. Meanwhile, this kind of exhaustion includes everything, not only the body that is tired, but the mind is also restless, even Bai Luo Yin had already intended to throw the uniform away. He originally thought about purchasing a new uniform, which was 40 yuan each, but Bai Luo Yin refused to give up. "Lao Bai, Lao Bai." [1] Aunt Zou's gentle voice drifted into Bai Luo Yin's ear. Bai Luo Yin stood up, the sweat pooling on his forehead was glistening. He used his arms to wipe his sweat and smiled at Aunt Zou's direction. "Auntie, you're here."
109
Are you Addicted? Aunt Zou wore a big apron and her long hair was bundled up casually on the back of her head. Her smooth and round face was filled with a warm smile. "Yes, here's some stuffed dumpling for you guys. It's freshly packed and filled with pork and aniseed." Bai Luo Yin took a dishcloth from the hanger to wipe his hands. He took the plate from Aunt Zou's hand and gasped with praise, "Smells so good." "You're already used to eating your father's cooking, so eating anyone's cooking must've tasted very delicious." Bai Han Qi just came out from the kitchen. When he saw the plate in Bai Luo Yin's hand, his face immediately became embarrassed. He couldn't even pretend that kind of fake courtesy. "I'm just thinking to invite you to eat with us, you are too kind, as far as to send this dish over to us." Bai Luo Yin slanted his eyes at Bai Han Qi, he wouldn't give him any chance to leave. "Are you going to serve the dish that's not presentable to Aunt Zou?" "Why not? The stir-fried eggplants that I gave you last time, is it not good?" It's better not to mention the eggplant incident, once it was mentioned Bai Luo Yin almost exploded. It goes without saying that Bai Luo Yin really loved eating eggplant. The stir-fried eggplant dish that Grandmother Bai made was very delicious. That day, Bai Han Qi insisted on helping by cutting the eggplants by himself, but after that the he didn't soak the sliced eggplants inside the water. So when it was fried, all of the eggplants became black, which looked like a plate of pickles. Yet this was still nothing, what made Bai Luo Yin extremely furious was when he ate the dish, Bai Han Qi not only used twice the amount of salt, but also used the dark soy sauce as well. After he finished eating, he couldn't even speak a single word. Aunt Zou caught a glimpse of the clothes inside the washtub and started to ask, "Who's washing the clothes?" "Oh, I'm the one washing the clothes." Aunt Zou anxiously said, "How can your dad allow you to do manual labour?" "Why can't I do manual labour?" Bai Luo Yin laughed. Aunt Zou walked towards the washtub. Without saying anything further, she sat down and started to scrub with her hands. "Your job is to study, meanwhile this kind of thing is our job." 110
你丫上瘾了? At first, Bai Luo Yin wanted to prevent Aunt Zou, but when he approached her, he saw that she washed with all of her strength. He suddenly lost his courage to extend his hand and stop her. He didn't know why, although Aunt Zou is a housewife and her strength is not stronger than him, but when he saw Aunt Zou scrubbing the clothes, he felt that she is really strong. Not long ago, the stain was still obvious, but after going through her heavy scrubbing, he couldn't see it anymore. This is weird, apparently in every area, there was an expert as well as an amateur. Aunt Zou dumped the dirty water, poured a tub of clean water into the clothes, repeating it two to three times. The uniform's formerly tragic sight now looked brandnew already. Although it couldn't be compared to a newly bought one, at least the bloodstains couldn't be spotted anymore. Looking at the white uniform on the hanging rack, Bai Luo Yin's heart suddenly became bright and clear. The next morning, Gu Hai rode his bike and strolled nearby Bai Luo Yin's house for quite a while until Bai Luo Yin's silhouette appeared from the middle of the morning sunrays. The corners of Gu Hai's mouth showed a smiling expression, he lifted his tall and slender legs and the wheels of his bike turned around, leaving dewdrops behind. Bai Luo Yin was walking when suddenly a bicycle brushed against his body. The bicycle was quite fast, moreover, it was also heavy. The force spurred Bai Luo Yin's body to lean forward slightly. Without thinking, he'd already known who's the stupid person behind this. In front, Gu Hai's foot stepped on the ground and he rapidly turned his bike, then he slammed on the brakes, the wheels of his bike creating a beautiful arc on the ground. He turned his head and smiled towards Bai Luo Yin. His face, which was honest yet evil, was painted by the soft rays of the morning sun, allowing the scent of his pure masculinity to evoke tenderness. However, Bai Luo Yin was incapable of admiring Gu Hai. He nonchalantly walked away while icily throwing a few words. "You can still drift with that lousy, secondhand bike?" Gu Hai was half-walking and half-riding the bike, following Bai Luo Yin from behind, "How do you know my bike is a secondhand one?" "Every day, there's always a missing bike around this area. If yours is new, you would've lost it by now."
111
Are you Addicted? "Why didn't you say that earlier?!" Gu Hai's expression was full of regret, "If I had known earlier that bikes are easily stolen here, I wouldn't have spent so much money to buy it." "Didn't you say that you've always lived in this area? How come you're not aware of this problem?" Gu Hai choked after hearing this sentence. "Aunt Zou, please give us two bowls of bean curd, five sausage-stuffed sesame seed bread, and two deep-fried sugar pancakes." Gu Hai also called towards Aunt Zou, "Give me one portion as well, the same as Bai Luo Yin's." Bai Luo Yin stared at Gu Hai with a surprised look. Gu Hai asked, "What's wrong?" "It's nothing." Actually, Bai Luo Yin wanted to say, my portion has already included yours, but in the end, he hesitated so he didn't say anything. Two boys sitting on a table, the table was almost filled up with breakfast. Honestly speaking, Bai Luo Yin had no difficulties in finishing all the foods alone, at most, he would eat lesser during lunchtime. However, he was worried that Gu Hai might waste the food, the quantity of food that Aunt Zou served is definitely too much. Furthermore, every food is indeed the real thing, there's no fake ingredient at all. Precisely because of this, Bai Luo Yin absolutely loathed the customers that spared leftovers when eating here. Gu Hai took a bite of the deep-fried sugar pancake, the outer surface was crisp while the inner part was soft. It tasted twice as delicious inside the mouth. "It's been a long time since I've eaten such an authentic sweet deep-fried pancake." Originally, Gu Hai wanted to talk about his first time eating the pancakes when he was about five to six years old. The words were on the verge of his tongue, but in the end he swallowed them back. He guarded his own mouth strictly, if by any chance he exposed his secrets one day, he'd be dead. "Where do you usually go for breakfast?" Bai Luo Yin asked casually. "...Usually hmmm, I stop at wherever I can, randomly buy some food and make do with it."
112
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin didn't probe any further, he focused on eating his own food. He had a habit of separating the bread from the stuffing when eating sesame seed breads. He ate the stuffing first and the bread afterwards. As a result, he ate the ham sausage inside the five sausage-stuffed sesame seed bread first, and the remaining was the thick sesame seed breads, which were piled up at the table. Gu Hai noticed this and assumed that Bai Luo Yin doesn't like to eat the bread, so he took every single ham sausages from the inside of his own sesame seed breads and placed them in Bai Luo Yin's plate. Then, he took the pile of sesame seed breads and put it in his own plate. Bai Luo Yin was slightly dazed, he lifted his head to glance at Gu Hai. He saw Gu Hai gobbling up the tasteless sesame seed bread without any trace of reluctance. Gu Hai stopped and saw Bai Luo Yin staring at him, "Does it make you full when you're watching me eating?" "I can't exactly say whether I've eaten full or not, but I certainly don't feel like eating anymore." Although he spoke this way, Bai Luo Yin's impression towards Gu Hai had started to change slowly. Initially, he felt hatred and disgust, but then it changed into forgiveness, and afterwards it developed further into the current tinges of good impression and fondness... For Bai Luo Yin who judge others for life on their first impression, Gu Hai's improvement was unheard of. "Alright, I've finished eating. Let's go!" The sight of empty plates and bowls dispelled Bai Luo Yin's worries. This is the first time he encountered a well-matched rival at eating. As expected, his good physique isn't only the result of physical training but from eating as well. Gu Hai rode his bike again and cycled with Bai Luo Yin to school. You Qi had spotted Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin entering the classroom together twice already. His mind was extremely puzzled, he couldn't resist himself from asking, "Why do you come to school together with him?" "I ran into him by coincidence." You Qi still wanted to ask, but Bai Luo Yin had already turned his head backwards. He tossed a uniform towards Gu Hai's chest. Gu Hai shook off the uniform, he paused for a while, and finally asked Bai Luo Yin, "Whose uniform is this?" "You ask me whose uniform is it? You think I'll give you my uniform?" 113
Are you Addicted? "My uniform?" Gu Hai had already forgotten about this matter. Before he came to this school, Fang Fei had already prepared unlimited school uniforms for him. So when that bloodstained uniform went missing, he didn't really mind. He thought that Bai Luo Yin already threw that uniform away. "This is the uniform you wore when you fought the other day." Bai Luo Yin only pointed out that part before he conveniently laid on the desk, preparing to sleep. However, Gu Hai couldn't stay calm, he was extremely excited. He used both of his pincer-like hands to poke at Bai Luo Yin, asking over and over again: "Are you the one who washed this uniform?" "Nope." "Stop lying." Gu Hai held his smile, "You dare to let your family see this uniform?" "You know yet you still ask!" Bai Luo Yin wore a cold and indifferent look. Afterwards, Gu Hai continued to put on his smiling face for God knows how long. The expression in his eyes was just like a pair of hook, they kept on skimming over Bai Luo Yin's whole body. Bai Luo Yin washed my clothes? Gu Hai imagined that particular scenario, right after that he felt happy and carefree. A handsome and smart young man washed this clothes with his very own hands, yet it wasnt getting any cleaner, his heart would be annoyed. He must have thought: Why do I have to wash his clothes? I might as well throw it out! But when he thought about it, he definitely won't be willing to throw it away. He would furrowed his eyebrows, and would relax only when the clothes was completely shiny and clean. He had no idea that the smell of soap could actually be this intoxicating. _________________________ [1] Lao Bai is a nickname for Bai Luo Yin's dad. Just like Da Hai. Lit. means Old Bai.

Chapter 33: Feelings Begin to Change. Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After Gu Hai went back to his home, he folded his uniform, then he put it inside his closet.His old mobile phone suddenly rang, producing a deafening ringtone because it was so loud. "Da Hai ah! Da Hai!" When Gu Hai heard it, he knew right away that it was Li Shuo, who always had nothing to do. "Da Hai, what are you busy with these days? Why did you never contact this brother of yours?" Li Shuo's words caused Gu Hai's body to tense for a few seconds, indeed, he hadn't get in touch with his buddies for quite a while. Since he changed his phone and sold his computer, he couldn't even connect to internet. Because he had no internet connection, and his phone was not a decent one too, Gu Hai was too lazy to contact anyone else. "I'm not really busy with anything, just went to classes, and then sleep. It's pretty boring." When Li Shuo heard that, he was very happy. "Then, let's go out on Saturday, let's call Hu Zi too, he bought a new car and wanted to show it off to you. Are you coming to our place, or do you want us to pick you up?" Gu Hai's eyes suddenly revealed a completely cautious look. "I'll go to your place. From now on if there's nothing important, don't come and look for me. If it's something really urgent, then give me a call first, after I said okay then you can come." "What shameful thing have you done this time? Why are you so afraid that we would see..." Gu Hai just casually brushed it off, "It's nothing, just remember my words and that's enough. See you on Saturday." After he finished speaking, Gu Hai hurriedly hang up the call. Not long after that, his phone rang again. 115
Are you Addicted? "Gu Hai!!" A loud voice from the other side of the phone shocked Gu Hai. "During these past few days, why did you never call me first?" Gu Hai took a deep breath, what did he do wrong these days, why is everyone talking to him as if they were demanding payment from him like he was indebted to them? "Didn't we talk on the phone every day?" Jin Lulu's voice could be heard from his old mobile phone, it was extremely rough. "Yes, we talked on the phone every day, but it's always me who called you first, you never take the initiative to call me! You weren't like this before, you're always the one who called me first. You... Are you cheating on me?" "Who am I cheating you with?" Gu Hai replied angrily. "Can you not be paranoid all day long? You weren't this narrow-minded before! If I'm really cheating on you, I wouldn't answer your call!" Jin Lulu was sobbing, "Then, why didn't you call me first?" Truthfully speaking, giving someone a call needs money, while receiving a call is free. Gu Hai used to not care about these things before, even if he fell asleep in the middle of phone call, the phone would be always connected until dawn. But now he can't do that anymore, he only wanted to receive a call, if he take the initiative to call someone first, he felt that he would suffer losses. Moreover, if he used this phone for too long, it would heat up and he's worried that his phone would die suddenly, so he simply didn't call her. "I'm busy these few days because I'm moving to a new place, so I couldn't contact you." Jin Lulu breathed slowly and said with a tactful tone, "Where did you move to?" Gu Hai lifted his head to look up at the ceiling whose paint had fallen off, he went silent for a long time before saying, "I moved to an apartment which is not far away from school, even if I tell you the address you wouldn't remember it." "Tell me. If you tell me, I will definitely remember it. I will go to your place when holiday comes." Gu Hai's expression changed, nevertheless his manner of speaking was still steady and firm. "Don't come here, you're a girl and if you come a long way here, I'll be really worried."
116
你丫上瘾了? Jin Lulu sighed heavily, "But I want to see your current life situation, since you started school up until now, I've never been to your place at all, I didn't even know how you are doing." "I'm doing very good. As long as you're doing good, then I'm fine too." Jin Lulu went silent for a quite while, her tone suddenly became somewhat dreary. "Gu Hai, you've changed." "How have I changed?" "You've never said anything good like what you've just said before, do you really have a new girlfriend?" Gu Hai immediately hang up the call, if he didn't hear it, then it wouldn't bother his heart. He didn't understand why suddenly he just lost all the patience he had towards the girl, whom he'd always thought as a perfect girl. After a while, the phone rang again, the sound was still as ear-piercing as before. The walls here were very thin and there were other people living beside him, Gu Hai was afraid he would bother everyone else, so he just turned off his phone. When Gu Hai was lying on his bed, his heart felt a little tight. He suddenly remembered one thing, with Jin Lulu's temper, supposed if he was in a cold war with her, then the one who'd lose their patience first would be her. And what does it mean? It means that she would go all the way here to find him, and then she would reveal his real identity as well as his family status. This can't be happening! Gu Hai went down from his bed again, took a couple big steps towards the table, and picked up his phone. Right after he turned on the phone, it rang again, Gu Hai hastily picked up the call. However, since the phone's reaction was too slow, while Gu Hai's action was too fast, as a result, just when he was about to answer the call, the phone crashed right away.
117

Chapter 34: Actually, you've heard it wrong. Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After quite a while, when he reckoned that Jin Lulu's mood was already stable, Gu Hai turned on his phone again. This time, it didn't ring immediately, even when Gu Hai had waited for some time, there were no calls, so he reluctantly called her back. "Hello..." Heavy nasal sound reached Gu Hai's ears, his heart trembled, Jin Lulu was a really tough girl, she rarely cried. At least in Gu Hai's impressions, Jin Lulu never shed a tear, not even once. "Okay okay, don't cry anymore." Jin Lulu sobbed hastily, she couldn't even finish her sentences. "I know I shouldn't be imagining things... but you've changed so much... previously, although we studied at different schools, but I' always feel like you're beside me... But now, I feel... I feel that you're really far away from me..." Gu Hai went silent for a bit, "It's not that far, just half an hour with the high-speed train." Jin Lulu's tears turned into laughter, "Why did you hang up my call earlier?" "I didn't hang up your call, the signal was bad." Gu Hai suddenly realized, that he could tell lies so easily now. Jin Lulu only hummed twice, "These past two days I have a migraine and it hurts so bad, I can't bear the pain." Gu Hai looked at the time, five minutes has passed. "This is because you always look at the computer, and you played too much with your phone. You also put your phone on your ear to answer the call, just imagine how big is the radiation! Listen, sleep earlier okay? Tomorrow when you wake up you should be fine already." Jin Lulu took a deep breath, "Can you come and see me this Saturday?"
118
你丫上瘾了? "I have an appointment with Li Shuo and Hu Zi already this Saturday. How about Sunday? I don't have anything to do on Sunday." "You've always think they're more important than me." "This is not about who is more important, I made a promise with someone else already. I have to do what I've promised to do!" Jin Lulu went quiet for a long time, then she faintly replied, "I'm going to my classmate's birthday party on Sunday, so I don't any time at all. Just come here next week, or I would be too tired." When she hang up the call, Gu Hai could still hear her disappointed sigh. His lights was already turned off, Gu Hai suddenly remembered two years ago during this time, Jin Lulu was leading a group of girls. She broke the glass at the director's home, then she went back to school and openly challenged the school principal. She was wild and straightforward that time, she was so clear whether she loves or hates something, she didn't pay attention to anything. Even if she's just one skinny little girl, but she was extremely aggressive. He remembered when Jin Lulu was sitting on the table, she was smiling so heartily, up to this day Gu Hai had always thought that she was very beautiful. Gu Hai had been fascinated with Jin Lulu from that time. Perhaps you shouldn't touch the thing you love, if you don't touch it, it will remain the same, no matter how much you look at it, you would still think that it's good. However, if you put it in front of you, you will see it more and touch it even more, on the contrary it would erode its original beauty instead. Gu Hai thought for a long time, he was still holding his phone, then he finally took the trouble to send a message. "I'll tell Li Shuo and Hu Zi that I won't go with them on Saturday, I'll go to see you." Gu Hai put down his phone, his heart felt more at ease. The next morning, Gu Hai was riding a bike with Bai Luo Yin to school, this time Bai Luo Yin changed his position. Before, he was always sitting and facing the back, but today he was standing at the backseat while facing the front, both of his hands were on Gu Hai's shoulders. This way, he could see the road ahead and prevent Gu Hai from going through that bumpy road again. But today, the wind is a little bit strong, the wind in Beijing was never alone, if the wind didn't come with sands, then it would be coming with dusts. Bai Luo Yin was
119
Are you Addicted? standing so tall, when they were riding down the road, he took a deep breath, he didn't know how much sand he had already inhaled. "Why aren't you sitting? I can block the wind for you." Bai Luo Yin simply pinched Gu Hai's shoulder firmly, both of them didn't speak a word. Gu Hai knew what Bai Luo Yin was thinking, he immediately assured him, "I won't pass through the bumpy road, so don't worry!" "Tomorrow is Saturday, do you want to hang out together?" "What?" Because of the strong wind, combined with the motor vehicles honks, Gu Hai couldn't hear clearly what Bai Luo Yin was saying. Bai Luo Yin lowered his head slightly, he placed his mouth as close as he could to Gu Hai's ears. "Let's go fishing together on Saturday?" Gu Hai's hands were shaking, he only stared at the road ahead, as if he was in the middle of making a difficult decision. "I'm busy, I can't go." Bai Luo Yin's gaze became dim, "Then, forget it." Those three words weren't even spoken loudly, but Gu Hai could hear it clearly. "Okay! I'll find you on Saturday." Bai Luo Yin bowed his head slightly, just enough to see the tip of Gu Hai's nose. "Didn't you say just now that you can't go?" Gu Hai slightly lifted his lower eyelid, just in time to see Bai Luo Yin's firm and persistent chin. "The wind is strong just now, you've heard it wrong." *********************************** Estreline: Sooo, its been a long time since i posted the new chapter, and im really sorry!! These past few days was like a dream to me, too much happened in that one day that we wont be able to forget, ever. So both of us were taking a break for a few days, we were trying to recover from those heartbreaks ;w; and well honestly too many people asked me about the continuation of the novel, even though i've been saying this many times. We WILL still translate this novel, as our tribute to those boys who worked hard, and that
120
你丫上瘾了? hardworks wasn't even acknowledged at all. They got cut, replaced, banned, with something that wasn't even their faults. I'm so angry, upset, but i know what im feeling is not even close to what they're feeling right now! So what im able to do is only this. I really want all of us to go through haiyin's journey together ^^ so we'll do our best! i hope everyone of you will always support them too. They perfectly brought gu hai and yin zi to real life, i hope they will have their happy ending too, it would be better if they end up with each other XD (yep im still shipping them). so yeah enough with my rants. see ya in the next and many more chapters! Sienna7455 : Hi everyone, nice to meet you, I'm Sienna. First of all, thank you so much for everyone who has supported us all these time. To tell you the truth, this is my first time translating a novel and my Chinese is not that good as well. That's why I'm very happy that our translation received positive responses from you guys. I'm also grateful that all of you have been patient with us for not updating these past few days. I'm sorry for keeping everyone waiting. But, 17th April was the biggest blow for us, Addicted fans. Up until now, I'm still trying to cope with the sadness. These past few days are not easy for us to compose ourselves. I hope everyone can understand. Nevertheless, despite the bleak situtation right now, I still have that tiny little hope for a miracle. And all we can do is keep on supporting Huang JingYu, Xu Weizhou, Lin FengSong and ChenWen. For those who asked, rest assured, we won't stop translating "Are you Addicted?". Previously, translating this novel is only my pleasure, my hobby. But now that things had happened, I really plan on translating the whole novel, until the end. I don't know how long it will take, but I will do my best. This is the least I can do. This is my tribute. Thank you - Sienna

Chapter 35: Fat Grandma, Skinny Grandma. Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Early in the morning, the weather was a little bit cloudy, when Gu Hai was riding on his bike he felt his arms were really cold. When he arrived at Bai Luo Yin's doorstep, he already stood there with his own things well-prepared, waiting for Gu Hai. This is the first time Gu Hai saw Bai Luo Yin in his casual clothes, in the past Bai Luo Yin always wore his uniform, moreover it was a summer uniform. Some students were wearing sweater already, yet Bai Luo Yin still wore his vest, so his classmates thought that Bai Luo Yin's firepower is really big. Today is a rare chance for Gu Hai to see Bai Luo Yin wearing a long-sleeved clothing, so Gu Hai is ready to tease him. "So you can still differentiate between hot and cold, you're still human like us." Bai Luo Yin showed an especially tactful smile, picked up a fishing rod, and all of a sudden, he hit Gu Hai's leg fiercely. Gu Hai felt as if a surge of flames lit up his lower leg, he was breathing relentlessly. Bai Luo Yin already dragged Gu Hai's bike to his courtyard as they planned to walk. Along the way, Gu Hai intentionally walked with a slower pace, he looked at Bai Luo Yin from behind for a long time. He frequently saw other people also wearing the same clothes as Bai Luo Yin's on the street, it's extremely ordinary, but when Bai Luo Yin wears it, he looks incredibly stylish. Bai Luo Yin's face is young, but when he wears those clothes, a hint of special masculinity came out. "Your outfit is pretty good, where did you buy it?" "It's my dad's." No wonder the longer he looked at him, the more mature he becomes... "You still wear your dad's clothes?" Bai Luo Yin replied nonchalantly, "We, father and son, always wear the same clothes, I don't like shopping, whatever clothes my father bought, I will wear it." Gu Hai laughed, "Don't tell me, you and your father only have one long-sleeved shirt, so when you wear it now, your father has to go to work bare-chested...."
122
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin confronted Gu Hai and displayed a very optimistic look, "You look down on us too much, so supposed that our family of four only have a piece of cotton-padded clothing, and if one person wears it and go out, the remaining three people are only able to bury ourselves in a pit to warm ourselves." "So, do you also have fat grandma and skinny grandma?" [1] This short sentence finally won Bai Luo Yin's knowing smile. "So, you've actually heard about the story of Guo DeGang." [2] Both of them chatted as they walked on the street. Gu Hai realized that Bai Luo Yin is a very brilliant talker, and he also spoke in a way to trap people's words. So, if he wasn't careful, he would be trapped by Bai Luo Yin's words. In order to converse with Bai Louyin, you have to use your brain all the time. His words are usually very short and casual, but they make a lot of sense after pondering over them. "We're here." Bai Luo Yin sat on a patch of grassland, he neatly unraveled his fishing lines, opened a can, he took the bait out, and stick it on the hook. Then he searched for a spot which is quite even and peaceful, threw the fishing bait, and then sat down. Gu Hai then walked towards Bai Luo Yin. This is a wild fishing spot, it's not too big, but the water quality here is pretty good. The fishes weren't fed by the people, so there weren't many big fishes, almost every fish is only 10 cm long, and has little meat, but it's really chewy. "After we finished fishing, do we have to pay according to the weight?" Bai Luo Yin glanced at Gu Hai, "Do you think this is a fishing park? There isn't a single person here within 3 miles, where are you going to pay?" Gu Hai pinched Bai Luo Yin's cheek, pretending to be angry, and said, "Can you give me a better attitude when talking to me? Every time before you open your mouth, you always give me a long face." Bai Luo Yin shifted, and then turned slowly his aching face towards Gu Hai, "I'll tell you this, I hate it the most when other people pinch my face." Gu Hai pinched Bai Luo Yin's cheek again. Bai Luo Yin was annoyed, he scolded Gu Hai right in front of his face, "Are you a pervert?" Gu Hai tore his shirt buttons off, exposing his six pack body, proudly raising the corner of his left lips and said, "Do you think I look like one?" 123
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin gave a scornful expression, "Besides showing off your muscles, what else can you do?" "Pinch your cheeks." ........... Five minutes later, Bai Luo Yin moved to a spot which is around 10 meters far from Gu Hai, then he sat quietly while continuing to check on his float. His surroundings became a lot more quiet and peaceful, Bai Luo Yin's condition also gradually recovered and his eyes became more focused on his float. Suddenly, his float moved a bit. "Da Hai ah Da Hai, is the place where I live, the sea breeze was blowing, the sea was surging..." Gu Hai's old phone suddenly rang, shocking the surrounding grasses until they swayed a few times, Bai Luo Yin's grip loosened for a moment, so when he pulled up his float, he found out that he got nothing. "Hello? Is this Li Shuo? Oh, I forgot to call you, I can't go, Lulu is sick, so I have to see her...... What? Lulu is together with you guys? ......" Bai Luo Yin held his temper and patiently waited until Gu Hai finished his phone call, then he would throw the bait again. "Da Hai ah Da Hai, is the place where I live, the sea breeze was blowing, the sea was surging..." "Hello? Hu Zi? Aren't you together with Li Shuo? ....... Together? If you're together then why did you call me again? Are you trying to annoy me on purpose? I'll tell you this... I'm really busy." The float in front of Bai Luo Yin didn't even stir a tiny bit. _________________________ [1] one of the comedy skits by Guo DeGang, a famous comedian.

When Gu Hai put down his phone, Bai Luo Yin had already disappeared from his sight. He stood up to search around and when he found there was a silhouette from across the river, Gu Hai immediately shouted at him. "Why did you go that far?" Bai Luo Yin pretended not to hear him. "I turned off my phone already." Bai Luo Yin was too lazy to even look at Gu Hai. "Say, is it interesting to fish by yourself?" "......" Bai Luo Yin only fixed his stare at his own float, suddenly, his float moved, Bai Luo Yin rapidly reeled in the fishing line and got a carp with the length around 10 cm. There was a bucket beside Bai Luo Yin, he tossed the fish inside the bucket, and then continued to throw the float again. During the half an hour where Gu Hai didn't disturb him, Bai Luo Yin caught four to five fishes already, in the beginning he always put on a composed face, but now he finally smiled a bit. He looked towards Gu Hai's side, there was no response at all, it was only water inside his bucket, not even a tiny little shrimp could be seen. After Gu Hai put away his fishing rod, he walked slowly towards Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin was completely focused on his float, his float went up and down a few times, he realized that a big fish must have swallowed the bait. Gu Hai have arrived at Bai Luo Yin's side already, but Bai Luo Yin didn't notice him. Gu Hai glanced at Bai Luo Yin's bucket, he extended his hand towards Bai Luo Yin. Suddenly, Bai Luo Yin fiercely raised his fishing rod and reeled in his fishing line, he got a really big fish, it weighed around 3 to 4 pounds. Gu Hai hit Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, "You're really skilled, you've gotten a lot of fishes."
125
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai's sudden movement shocked Bai Luo Yin, who was highly focused, and caused his hand to tremble a bit, his fishing rod abruptly fell on the grass. Bai Luo Yin anxiously picked up his fishing rod and saw that the fish and the fish bait was no longer there. One can imagine clearly the expression on Bai Luo Yin's face. "I'm not fishing anymore." Bai Luo Yin collected his fishing rod, picked up his bucket, and stood up to leave. Gu Hai stopped in front of him. "Have I annoyed you?" "I just don't want to fish anymore, it's boring." He pushed Gu Hai with one arm. He had just walked two steps when he heard the sound of water splashing behind him. Bai Luo Yin's expression went still, I didn't use too much strength, right? How can he fell into the river already? Gu Hai wasn't an expert at fishing, but he's capable of catching a fish with his bare hands. Ever since he was 10 years old, he had started to participate in the army's field survival training. Since then he had learned how to catch fish, no matter whether it was a big fish or small fish, as long as he can see it, the fish won't be able to escape. Gu Hai's cold, sharp gaze was fixed on the fish that was swimming around his legs, he waited quietly for a while, then moved to another spot, he continued to wait again. Gu Hai fumbled in such a way that he quickly reached the middle of river, the water level was just below his neck. "Come up here!" Bai Luo Yin shouted, "Don't be ridiculous! The water is really cold!" Gu Hai saw the potential target, both of his hands grabbed the fish abruptly, a surge of ice-cold and slippery feeling went along his fingers and spread to his entire body. Finally caught you. Gu Hai swam forward, he arrived at the spot where the water was more shallow, then extended his hands to show Bai Luo Yin the fish, "Is it this one?" Bai Luo Yin just realized that Gu Hai went down the river just to catch back the fish that he lost earlier. "Yes, it's this one."
126
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin smiled and he didn't even try to conceal his smile. The autumn sun was shining upon his face, he looked somewhat pleased and carefree. Gu Hai only looked at him quietly, in that fleeting moment, his heart suddenly lost its balance...... Bai Luo Yin's smile disappeared in no time. "You... Are you having leg cramp?" Gu Hai realized that his leg was still deep in the water. On the shore, both of them carried the buckets while walking home. When Gu Hai saw that Bai Luo Yin was in high spirits, he couldn't help but to poke at his forehead. "Is it worth it? Just because of one fish, you were such in a bad mood. If I didn't catch that fish for you, you probably won't even look at me the next time we meet." Gu Hai said those words with a smile, half-serious and half-joking, he himself didn't understand why he directly went into the water without a second thought. Just like last night when he was laying on his bed, he thought about it over and over again yet he still didn't understand, why did he agree to go fishing with Bai Luo Yin? Bai Luo Yin replied with a smile, "It wasn't like that. Since we came here to fish, we have to do it whole-heartedly. If you're always on the phone, what's the meaning of it?" Gu Hai stepped up to defend himself, "Didn't I turn off my phone after that?" Bai Luo Yin didn't answer, his facial expression gave nothing away. Gu Hai wanted to show his sincerity, he reached into his pocket, took out his phone and waved it in front of Bai Luo Yin. "See, isn't it turned off already?" Bai Luo Yin saw countless water droplets dripping from Gu Hai's phone. Gu Hai saw it too. Then he remembered something. Before he went down to the river, he didn't take out his phone.

"You caught so many fish, yet you aren't going to let me to eat dinner at your place tonight?" Gu Hai asked himself without being invited. Bai Luo Yin thought about Grandma Bai's speech habit and immediately rejected, "Just wait until the fish is fully cooked, I'll go and bring them to your house, you can just wait there." Gu Hai then remembered about those men and women, old and young tenants at his place and his heart suddenly quivered. How can that be okay? That place isn't even their homes! If Bai Luo Yin really went there, it'd be a miracle if his secret isn't exposed! "What's wrong with me eating at your place?" Gu Hai furrowed his eyebrow in displeasure, "Fairly speaking, you should be the one to take initiative first and invite me to dinner, it's not me who should remind you, why do you lack such common sense?" "Yes, I have no common sense." Bai Luo Yin then grabbed the bucket that was in Gu Hai's hand, "If you want to eat, then just wait quietly at your home, if you don't want to eat, then forget it." When Gu Hai heard the word "home", his body shivered. Bai Han Qi went back to his home already, he was moving back and forth between his two new trees in front of the door, and when he saw that Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai had returned, his face was overflowed with smile. "Uncle!" Gu Hai called him warmly. Bai Han Qi replied at him joyfully too, his hand reached towards Gu Hai's shoulder, he was about to say a few kind words, but then his facial expression changed, "Why is your clothes so wet? Come come, get inside the house and change to the clean one!" Bai Luo Yin stood between Gu Hai and Bai Han Qi, his expression was cold, "Dad, do we have extra dry clothes in our house for him?" "How come we don't have them? ...... I bought two sets just now, give it to him first."
128
你丫上瘾了? He didn't buy it earlier, he also didn't buy it later, why does he have to buy it unexpectedly at this time...... Bai Luo Yin furrowed his eyebrows, he really didn't want Gu Hai to come inside his house. "Uncle, can I take a bath in your home, too? My body is covered in mud, I'll dirty your new clothes!" "Enough!" Bai Luo Yin stared at him viciously. But Bai Han Qi actually looked very happy, "Of course you can, do you know how to turn on the water? If you can't, then just let Luoyin shower together with you." "That's a really good idea!" Gu Hai smiled really wide, it almost made his chin drop to the ground. "What's good?" Bai Luo Yin shouted, "Our house doesn't even have a decent toilet, the shower is in the open air, the showerhead is also blocked all the time, how can he take a bath here?" "Of course I can!" Gu Hai looked leniently, "Your family bathroom is still covered with plastic sheet, the bathroom in my house is really an open-air bathroom, I took a shower using the tap water during summer and there isn't even any hot water!" Bai Han Qi laughed, "We have hot water in our home! Just use it as much as you like!" Both of you really..... enough! Bai Luo Yin secretly gritted his teeth, he packed his things and went inside the house with a darkened face. Before, when no one visited his house, he never knew that his house was very messy. Bai Luo Yin was in the middle of tidying his things, when he suddenly heard Gu Hai shouting, "Bai Luo Yin, how do you open the hot water?" Bai Luo Yin pretended not to hear him. After a while, Bai Han Qi angrily went inside Bai Luo Yin's room and complained to him, "Just go there and help him! Why don't you have any manner?" Bai Luo Yin sighed, then walked straight to the bathroom, he suddenly opened the curtain. Gu Hai had already stripped naked, his impressive figure was displayed in front of Bai Luo Yin's eyes, it made him really want to kick his solid butt. "You said you can't even open the water, then why did you take off your clothes so fast?" Gu Hai's hand reached towards Bai Luo Yin's collar gently and opened three buttons of Bai Luo Yin's clothes. "Let's shower together! See, your trousers are covered with mud, don't you feel uncomfortable?" 129
Are you Addicted? "Thanks to you!" Bai Louyin gripped Gu Hai's slippery shoulder, then he suddenly hit Gu Hai's lower abdomen with his knee and let out these few words from his mouth, "Just shower by yourself!" Gu Hai smiled, "Bai Luo Yin, you're too perverted." Bai Luo Yin was about to leave already, but when he heard Gu Hai's words he turned back again. When Gu Hai saw his movement, he subconsciously covered his private part. "Your reaction is quite fast!" Bai Luo Yin said with straight face. Gu Hai replied with a smile, then he earnestly asked Bai Luo Yin, "Your bathroom is only covered with single plastic sheet, someone can come from the outside, aren't you afraid that someone will see you?" "No one will come to our house, especially a woman, even if you were to take a bath outside, go out to the yard and naked, no one will pay attention to you!" "Is Bai Han Qi at home?" Aunt Zou soft voice can be heard from outside. Bai Luo Yin: "......" "Fuck!" Gu Hai's body went stiff, "Didn't you say that nobody would come? Are you kidding me?" Bai Luo Yin laughed out loud, "You'd better behave yourself, if you get on my nerve, I'd immediately use the lighter to make holes on the plastic sheets." "......." Aunt Zou saw the bucket full of fish, it caught her eyes, "You bought fish today?" "I went fishing." Bai Luo Yin smiled. "Aunt, I'll give you two fishes, please help us to stew it, I'm afraid if my father put his hand on it, it will spoil the dish!" Aunt Zou laughed boldly, "Look at this kid, you really can talk, then I'll take this home, when it's ready I'll give it back to you." Bai Han Qi stepped out from the house and quickly stopped Aunt Zou, "Don't mind him! It's not right! Just take two for yourself and then I'll cook the rest of the fishes myself." Aunt Zou just smiled and didn't speak, she carried the bucket and then passed Bai Han Qi to go outside. Bai Luo Yin looked at Bai Han Qi and wanted him to act, he directly grabbed him and seriously said, "I'll tell you this..... Later, Gu Hai will say that he wanted to eat dinner here, just say that the food in our house is awful, no matter what, you won't agree with him." 130
你丫上瘾了? "This kid, how can you be like this?" Bai Han Qi frowned. "Those fish are caught by both of you, how can you not let him to eat some?" "It's not that I'm not allowing him to eat, I'm saying that I want to bring the fish to his house." Bai Luo Yin gazed towards their house and gave a signal to Bai Han Qi, "I just couldn't let him laugh at our family!" Bai Han Qi suddenly realized, he nodded his head and said, "Don't worry, I definitely won't let him stay." After Gu Hai finished his shower, Bai Luo Yin took his clothes and went inside the bathroom. "Uncle, who planted these flowers?" "Oh, my son planted this, beautiful right?" "It's really beautiful. Is it okay if I pluck one out?" "Pluck it, just pluck as you please." Bai Luo Yin almost tore the plastic sheet. It took him more than six months to make the flowers bloom altogether!!! "Uncle, tonight I want to stay and eat dinner at your house, can I?" It was silent on the outside, Bai Luo Yin turned off the water, with his wet and full of foam hair, he pricked up his ears to listen to them. "Of course!" Bai Han Qi laughed joyfully, "Even if you wanted to leave, I won't let you! Just eat dinner here, then you can go after you eat! Hahaha......" "!!......"

Chapter 38: You cannot rule over him? Translator: Sienna7455 Proofreader: Estreline ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before eating, Bai Han Qi stared continuously at Bai Luo Yin's face, he also felt an extreme regret in his heart. Pray tell, why did I agree right away? Why can't I say the offending words to reject Gu Hai? What's done is done, just because of a temporary happiness, he had enraged his precious son. "How about this, I will tell your grandpa and grandma to eat at home. Then, the three of us will go out and eat." Bai Luo Yin's expression became uglier, "How can I let my own grandpa and grandma eat by themselves? Can my grandpa remove the bones from the fish properly by himself? Even if I want to drive someone away, I couldn't drive my own family away. Just let him bring his bowls and chopsticks to eat at the courtyard. Who asked him to insist on staying here?" "He is a guest, how could you be like this?" Bai Luo Yin turned around to grab a bowl, he didn't pay any more attention to Bai Han Qi. Bai Han Qi sighed heavily, then he headed towards Grandma Bai and Grandpa Bai's room. He especially cautioned Grandma Bai not to talk, Grandpa Bai to eat more slowly and carefully to avoid choking. Their family of four, plus Gu Hai himself, are five people altogether. All of them crammed into the square-shaped table. The dishes on the table were abundant, besides steamed fish, Bai Han Qi also cooked two more dishes, although it doesn't look really good, the smell is actually not that bad. This is their family's most silent meal. Originally, Grandma Bai really loved to talk, but because her son had forbid her from speaking, she didn't dare to utter one word. Her small eyes squinted around, looking here and there with a face full of caution. However, it can be clearly seen that she really likes this particular friend of her grandson, she can't talk, but she can get more food for him. Grandma Bai casually took some vegetables, placed it into his plate and then grinned at him. 132
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai also liked Grandma Bai, his own grandmother passed away when he was six years old. The only impression he could remember about her was the way she combed her hair until it was shiny. Gu Hai supposed that even if his grandmother was still alive, she won't be as this kind and affectionate like Grandma Bai. In order to show some respect, Gu Hai also took a piece of fish and gave it to Grandma Bai. "Grandma, please eat, I can get the food by myself." Grandma Bai nodded her head steadily, she wanted to express her gratefulness but since she couldn't speak, she could only voice "oh" twice woefully. Gu Hai's expression changed, taking advantage of the gap between Bai Han Qi and Grandma Bai's talk, he asked Bai Luo Yin in a low voice, "Is you grandma... mute?" Bai Luo Yin was on the verge of throwing the food inside his bowl towards Gu Hai's head. "Your grandmother is the one who's mute." "My grandmother has long passed away." Bai Luo Yin was in the middle of picking the bones from a piece of fish inside his bowl when he noticed Grandpa Bai looking at him enviously. He couldn't help but to ignore Gu Hai first, pick the fish, then gave it to Grandpa Bai. Actually, Grandpa Bai could pick his own fish, but he always did it badly, so most likely, he would end up choking. Grandpa Bai's tongue was not nimble and he needed great effort to swallow down the food. If he choked, he would surely cough out all the food inside his mouth. He was worried that he might make the guest feel uncomfortable, so Grandpa Bai ate very carefully. When Gu Hai saw that Bai Luo Yin himself didn't eat much and kept on serving his grandparents, his heart was somewhat moved. He took a piece of fish, placed it into his own bowl, and removed the fishbone just like what Bai Luo Yin had done. Then, he put the fish inside Bai Luo Yin's bowl. This is the first time Gu Hai ever do this kind of thing. Once, he said to other people that if there's a woman who could make him to voluntarily pick the bones from a fish, then this woman is definitely the best candidate as his wife. It's a pity that the first time he do this is actually for a guy. Bai Luo Yin had just finished placing the fish into his grandpa's bowl when he realized that there was an additional piece of fish inside his own bowl. Gu Hai didn't speak a word, yet Bai Luo Yin knew who gave it to him. From the beginning of the meal up until now, Bai Luo Yin's heart felt uncomfortable, only right at this moment that his mood finally improved a little. Gu Hai occasionally took a glimpse at Bai Luo Yin. 133
Are you Addicted? After Bai Luo Yin ate two spoons, he knitted his eyebrows and looked towards Gu Hai. "There's still a lot of bones, you didn't remove everything." Fuck... Gu Hai cursed in his mind, you are in a poor peasant's body yet you wanted a young master's life! What did I, Gu Hai, owe you in my previous life? Why did I encounter a person like you, that whenever I do something strenuous, it always turns out to be fruitless? Bai Luo Yin couldn't help but to feel happy and amused, of course he knew what Gu Hai was thinking about. The dinner quickly came to an end, everything was peaceful until Grandpa Bai coughed. Bai Han Qi's face changed, he was about to put his hand of Grandpa Bai's back to support him, but too bad it's already too late. Once Grandpa Bai coughed, he would definitely choke. He coughed out the rice and the fish, all of the food was scattered around the bowl. All the delicious food on the table was completely ruined. Bai Han Qi's expression was taut, he wore a concerned yet reprimanding look. "Didn't I tell you to eat slowly?" Now Gu Hai understood the reason why Bai Luo Yin adamantly prohibited him from eating here. Before this incident happened, Bai Luo Yin was anxious, but after it happened, his mood became placid instead. He calmly stood up, grabbed some tissues and slowly wiped Grandpa Bai's mouth. During this time, he didn't spare a glance at Gu Hai, he didn't want to see that kind of weird stares that strangers gave towards his own relatives. Although Gu Hai had already finished eating, Bai Luo Yin still couldn't explain it to him. Bai Luo Yin wiped Grandpa Bai's collar and front robe until they were clean. Just when he was going to get a new bowl of rice, he saw a hand extending towards them. "Let your grandpa drink a sip of water first." Gu Hai carried a glass of water in his hand. Bai Luo Yin didn't say anything, he only took the glass and hand it over to Grandpa Bai. Later, Gu Hai started to chat with Bai Han Qi and the two grandparents on his own accord. After listening to the conversation, Grandma Bai was very happy that both of her cheeks were flushed, she became more and more excited. She really wanted to say something! She felt restricted to an extent that she can't even say one "good" word! "Your grandson is amazing, no one in the class is brave enough to provoke him." 134
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai looked like he was playing with a child as he gave Grandma Bai thumbs up. Grandma Bai's eyes suddenly widened. She looked at Gu Hai with astonishment. "Even you cannot rule over him?" "E......" Grandma Bai realized that she had just talked, she was immediately flustered, both of her hands covered her own mouth and she didn't dare to look at Bai Han Qi in the eyes. Gu Hai was amused by Grandma Bai's adorable behavior. "Yes, I cannot rule over him."

"Son, send your classmate back." Bai Luo Yin walked with Gu Hai to the door, then Gu Hai pushed his bike and bid farewell to Bai Luo Yin, "It's okay, you can go inside." Bai Luo Yin didn't move, "How far is your place from here?" Gu Hai's heart tightened, "Why? Do you still want to hang out at my house?" "No, I just want to send you home." Although his words were pleasant to listen to, unfortunately Gu Hai couldn't enjoy it. "I'm a man, so why do you need to send me home? Quick, just go inside, it's getting cold. I'm riding a bike, so it won't even take ten minutes to reach home." Bai Luo Yin already walked out from his house, he waved his hand towards Gu Hai under the street lights. "Let's go!" Contrary to expectations, Gu Hai simply followed him. Both of them walked on the spacious street, the weeping willows on side road were like little curtains. The trees were shedding, causing countless of delicate, little leaves to fall down in a disorderly manner. Unknowingly, autumn had arrived. Beijing's autumn was really comfortable, indeed after they survived an extremely hot summer, in the end people would long for a cool and refreshing weather. The autumn wind was quiet and gentle, unlike the spring wind that always brought chills all over the body. "Was today's food not good?" It was very rare to hear Bai Luo Yin's voice so soft and gentle, maybe he wanted to soften this tranquil night, or maybe he felt guilty deep inside his heart. After all, it was Gu Hai's first time to eat dinner at his place, and yet he let him to eat such an unpleasant meal. "It was very delicious."
136
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai's deep voice in the quiet night made his words seems real, made it really difficult to doubt him. "My grandfather and grandmother were like that too when they were still alive, my grandfather was even worse than your grandfather, basically he only ate then vomited, after he vomited then he would eat again, he was paralyzed in bed for a long time, he was also incontinent, so I'm already used to it...." While Gu Hai was speaking, he was also repenting in his heart, actually his grandfather was a hero, a hero who looked after his family. Before Gu Hai was born, Gu Hai's grandfather carried out a mission and he sacrificed his life bravely and gloriously. Only because of his grandfather's death, that the people in his father's generation could obtain special political privileges, otherwise his father wouldn't have his position today. Bai Luo Yin only laughed without a word. Gu Hai tilted his head to glance at Bai Luo Yin beside him, not long after that he turned his gaze away. He didn't know what was Bai Luo Yin thinking, he was only gazing at the road in front of him, quiet Bai Luo Yin was really enchanting, it was an indescribable trait. The light from the streetlamps hit half of Bai Luo Yin's face, resembling both light and dark. Absent mindedly, Gu Hai looked at Bai Luo Yin's face again for a long time, he felt as if there was a flinch in his heart, comfortably spreading through his entire bones. He was infatuated. It has nothing to do with gender, because he is too beautiful, so beautiful that he forgets the difference and the lack of understanding between them. "Why do you use artistic word to write your name?" That one sentence interrupted Gu Hai's thoughts. "Oh... My girlfriend found someone to design it for me, she forced me to learn it. Then it became a habit to write like that, even if I want to change it, I can't." Bai Luo Yin lightly said, "That's a bad habit..." Gu Hai respectfully gave a standard military salute, "Teacher Bai's lesson is true, as soon as I arrive home, I will change it." Between laughing and talking, they were already halfway home, Gu Hai realized that he really couldn't go back to his home with Bai Luo Yin, he had to take detour as far as possible, otherwise he would be exposed. "Ah......"
137
Are you Addicted? Hearing Bai Luo Yin's gasp, Gu Hai turned his head around and saw there was a big dog at his side, with snow-white fur, strong physique, and mild temper. Bai Luo Yin crouched down, he was very fond of the dog, he caressed the dog all over its body, his face clearly showing the color of excitement. "This Samoyed is really beautiful." Before his voice even went away, the dog owner's had already come. Bai Luo Yin stood up, even after the dog's owner went away, he still stared at them wistfully for a long time. "Do you like dogs?" Gu Hai asked. Bai Luo Yin laughed, "I can get along with dogs very well, even the fiercest dog, they will warm up to me when they see me." Gu Hai eyelids jumped, why is the more he listen to those words, the more it seems like he was talking about him? "If you really like it, bro can buy one for you." Bai Luo Yin casually retorted, "You are so poor, can you afford it?" "......" Gu Hai fussed in his mind, "Forget Samoyed, even if it's Tibetan Mastiff, I can buy it for you..." This kind of life is actually very annoying...... "Isn't your home near? Why haven't we reached your place even after walking for so long?" Bai Luo Yin began to suspect. Gu Hai patted Bai Luo Yin's shoulder and said, "I'm walking while pushing the bike, of course it would be slow. If I'm riding the bike, I will arrive home in no time, you can go back too." Bai Luo Yin happily walked away. Only after he was certain that Bai Luo Yin had already left that Gu Hai actually rode his bike. Bai Luo Yin went to a dark spot, turned his head around, then saw Gu Hai turning back to travel through the road that they walked before. As expected....... Bai Luo Yin was following him from behind to find out what actually happened. Actually, when Bai Luo Yin said he wanted to send Gu Hai home, it was just a camouflage, his real purpose was to find out where is Gu Hai's house exactly, why is it 138
你丫上瘾了? that every time Bai Luo Yin mentions about it, he's always so secretive. But after half an hour, he had not arrived at his home yet, so Bai Luo Yin simply let Gu Hai go, then he used the tracking method. Gu Hai rode his bike, but he felt something fishy, even though the footsteps behind him were soft, he was aware that there was something odd. He didn't even need to look back, just by listening to the sound of the footsteps, he could determine the height, weight and general appearance of this person. It's possible that Bai Luo Yin had followed him here. This guy is too sneaky. Gu Hai narrowed his eyes, his cycling movement was still relaxed and his rhythm was still clear, there were no hint of tension and diffidence in his actions. Soon, Gu Hai arrived at one house. The single-storey houses were all identical, with a small courtyard. Gu Hai was in difficult position, he couldn't just go back to his actual rented house that he had passed. Bai Luo Yin would definitely find out that his house was actually rented, and all those words he said before would become a lies. In order to preserve what little space he occupied in Bai Luo Yin's heart, he decided to take a risk. The people living beside him were living alone, they were an old married couple. He reckoned that they must have slept at this time, so Gu Hai decided to go to their house first to stay away from the trouble. Then, he could climb the wall to go to the house beside this house, which was his actual house. Let's do this, Gu Hai swiftly pried the lock open, calmly pushed his bike. Then he went inside and shut the door, he could finally heave a sigh of relief. The distance was far and Gu Hai didn't know whether Bai Luo Yin had already went back or not. Nevertheless, he didn't intend to go out, the wall wasn't tall, so he immediately threw his bike over the wall to the yard beside, then he neatly jumped over the wall too. He finally escaped from disaster. Monday early morning, Gu Hai pushed his bike outside. However, before the front wheel of his bike could barely pass the doorway, his back wheel had abruptly turned back two large loops. What happened? Gu Hai was surprised to see Bai Luo Yin's figure in front of his neighbour's house, standing upright, specially waiting for him to come out. 139
Are you Addicted? What to do? Do I need to climb the wall to go out again? Gu Hai climbed the wall to peek at the courtyard beside him, the old man was in the yard, watering his garden. How can I go past him? Gu Hai's forehead was sweating. In the end, he came up with a strange trick. He threw his bicycle to the next yard. It produced a loud sound. The old man who was watering his garden was startled, he turned his head only to see a young man standing on top of his wall, there was a bicycle below him. "Grandpa, my bicycle fell down at your house, can I go there and pick it up?" "How can your bike fell down here? Were you riding on the walls?" Gu Hai didn't care much about it anymore, that guy was still standing outside, he has to act like he's crazy. "Well, I'm going to pick it up and I'll just throw it over the wall!" The grandfather walked unsteadily, he showed an anxious expression. "Why are you throwing it back there? You can just directly walk out from my door." Gu Hai looked at the old man with eyes full of admiration combined with mutual understanding. Then, Gu Hai naturally pushed his bike and walked out from the front door. The grandfather merely stood behind Gu Hai, he was worried. "What a good-looking lad! It's a pity that he's a fool!" ......... Zhou Si Hu was looking at his watch, it was 10 minutes before school started. Li Shuo was sitting beside him while playing his computer. Zhou Si Hu wasn't quite awake yet, he had been yawning nonstop. His good weekend was ruined, he had to put up with Jin Lu Lu, he couldn't contact Gu Hai, and Jin Lulu just kept on tormenting both of them. It was until late night that they managed to escort this young lady back to Tian Jin.
140
你丫上瘾了? Both of them only slept in the hotel for a while, before they woke up to get ready for school. Li Shuo heard the guy beside him yawning, he glanced at Zhou Si Hu and couldn't help but ask, "Can you drive? If you can't, just exchange with me." "We're almost there, what's the point of switching now?" Li Shuo snickered, then his eyes were suddenly fixed at the side road next to him. "Wait, slow down a little!" Zhou Si Hu ignored him, "If we go any slower, we'll be late." "It's not that...." Li Shuo continuously stretched his neck towards the back, he was staring until his eyeballs almost popped out, "Why do I feel the one who's riding that bike behind us looks like Da Hai?!" Zhou Si Hu also glanced at the back through the rearview mirror. "You're right, he really looks like him." Li Shuo blinked his eyes, "I think it's really him!" "What are you saying?" Zhou Si Hu increased his speed and said with a casual expression, "Just look at that poor appearance, can it really be Da Hai? Besides, Da Hai has a few cars on his own, why does he has to ride a bicycle? Use your own foot to think properly, can Da Hai really look that shameful?" Li Shuo thought about it and realized that it made sense. He couldn't help but to sigh. "Just where did Da Hai disappear to......"

During the afternoon break, Dan Xiao Xuan approached Gu Hai's tableside while swinging her hips. "Can you explain this question to me?" When Bai Luo Yin heard this sentence, he immediately stood up and offered his seat to Dan Xiao Xuan. Gu Hai spared Bai Luo Yin a quick glance, his piercing gaze was filled with small thorns. Dan Xiao Xuan held a piece of exam paper. Her pair of flirtatious eyes watched Gu Hai and her mouth pouted slightly, undoubtedly giving an impression similar to a spoilt child. The most disturbing thing was that she wore a skimpy cheongsam underneath her school uniform and on top of that, she deliberately leaned towards Gu Hai. The space in front of Gu Hai's eyes were filled with Dan Xiao Xuan's breasts. "I can't solve this problem." Bai Luo Yin leaned against the desk and looked at the two people in front of him with an air full of interest. Gu Hai patiently explained to Dan Xiao Xuan all the way through. "Do you understand?" Dan Xiao Xuan's mouth turned upwards, "You speak too fast, I still don't understand." She spoke while cupping both of her cheeks with her hands, the cleavage between her squeezed bosoms became all the more obvious. Behind them, two boys were intentionally handing out exercise books. Meanwhile, the owners of said books were actually sitting a few rows in front of them. "Please explain it to me one more time." Dan Xiao Xuan tugged at Gu Hai's arm back and forth, causing Gu Hai's hand to "accidentally" brush against her chest. After that, she smiled coyly, pretending to straighten her uniform. In fact, during the short moment when she was pulling her clothes, her neckline was open so wide that it would certainly draw people's attention. This time, Gu Hai explained very seriously. 142
你丫上瘾了? However, Dan Xiao Xuan didn't only express that she had yet to understand the question, but she also find an excuse that she couldn't see the picture clearly. So in order to look at it more clearly, Dan Xiao Xuan dragged Bai Luo Yin's chair and directly place it next to Gu Hai's seat. Moreover, she also squeezed herself to fit into the small desk. "Explain it again." Dan Xiao Xuan's feet lightly brushed against Gu Hai's leg. Gu Hai smirked lightly, "Alright, I'll explain it once more." Gu Hai wanted to know what is she actually trying to do. "First, draw an auxiliary line connecting these two points, after that..." Dan Xiao Xuan's eyes squinted slightly, observing the tiny stubbles along Gu Hai's jawline carefully, and not to mention those thin and enticing lips. She kept on ogling him, her eyes couldn't help but to move across his strong arms down to his slender and straight legs. Gu Hai felt someone pulling at his hand, then it came into contact with a soft area. Bowing his head, Gu Hai felt his blood surging up. This girl led his hand towards the middle of her legs, placed it between them and then closed her legs. Gu Hai tried to withdraw his hand, but then he heard Dan Xiao Xuan's croon. Although he studied in a private school for so many years, he had never met such a bold female before. You Qi merely stood next to Bai Luo Yin, his face showing astonishment. "That woman is way too flirty." Bai Luo Yin laughed while nodding his head, "I've always been in the same class with her." "Oh?" You Qi smiled, yet it wasn't really a smile, "Then, you are really a 'lucky' one." Bai Luo Yin only smiled without saying anything. Dan Xiao Xuan walked past Bai Luo Yin and returned to her own seat. She looked at Gu Hai with eyes full of desire. "How is it?" Gu Hai noticed Bai Luo Yin's amused expression and he couldn't refrain himself from letting out an indifferent grunt. "It's her who was leaning on me, what can I do?" 143
Are you Addicted? Hearing Gu Hai's words, Bai Luo Yin gave a snort of contempt. Gu Hai immediately grabbed Bai Luo Yin's hand and placed it on top of his own crotch, forcefully pushing it down, his face showing an unbridled, evil smile. "How is it? I'm not deceiving you, right? It's soft!" His last two words were powerful and resonating. "What's so good to brag about? If you can, then become hard for me right now." Gu Hai quickly nestled his mouth close to Bai Luo Yin's ear, creating a steam that seeped into his ear. "If you move a bit, then I will instantly become hard." Bai Luo Yin's hand was still pressing down on Gu Hai's piece of flesh. After hearing those words, he suddenly lashed out. "You really have no sense of shame!" Gu Hai smiled until the corners of his lips twitched. "May I ask, is Gu Hai in this class?" When a familiar voice intruded and reached Gu Hai's earlobes, Gu Hai's smile froze right away. "Gu Hai, there's someone looking for you outside." Gu Hai turned his head around, Jin Lulu appeared from the back entrance, her expression bordering on madness and insanity...

"Why did you come?" "You asked why did I come? It's been two days, I couldn't get through your phone at all! If I still couldn't contact you, I would've thought you've been kidnapped!" "Aren't I still fine? My phone fell into the river and I don't have extra money to buy the new one, that's why I couldn't contact you...." Gu Hai was explaining patiently when Jin Lu Lu's gaze swept all over Gu Hai's body, the color of his long-sleeved T-shirt wasn't even right, and with that 30 yuan sneakers on his feet, she really couldn't stay calm. "How can your dad do this to you? Even if he kicked you out, he didn't have to make you this miserable..... oomph..." Jin Lu Lu's mouth was covered by Gu Hai's hand, then he pulled her to a relatively quiet corner. "Don't speak too loud, my classmates can hear it." Jin Lu Lu gave a confused look, but Gu Hai's face right now was firmly imprinted in her heart, she can't believe that this man is her boyfriend. Isn't Gu Hai someone who wasn't afraid of anything? Even if God gave him a direction, he would dare to go on his own way, then why at this moment, he doesn't even have the courage to talk in front of his classroom's door? "Actually, why did your father make you suffer so much? You even end up this shameful now!" It was hard for Jin Lu Lu to hide her feelings, she persistently pulled down Gu Hai's clothes, she really couldn't bear to see Gu Hai dressed up like this. "Stop pulling it down! If you keep on pulling it, it will tear." Jin Lu Lu pulled at it even more, she wanted to take the shirt off from Gu Hai's body right away, what she wanted to see is Gu Hai wearing fashionable clothes, just like before.
145
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai held Jin Lu Lu's hand, he looked around and saw that no one was there, he said to Jin Lu Lu with low voice, "Don't fool around, just go and take a walk around the school first, after school I will send you back." "I'm not going back." Jin Lu Lu insisted, "I took three days off." Gu Hai's heart suddenly skipped, three days, what what kind of idea is this? "You took three days off, but I didn't. Are you going to wander around by yourself for three days?" Gu Hai's eyes went icy. Jin Lu Lu felt like she no longer knows Gu Hai. "You still care about asking for a leave? Can't you skip your classes? Didn't you skip some classes in the past? Why? I didn't even sleep all night because I rushed over here to find you, is that not enough for you to skip even one class?" "Don't joke around, I have no time to accompany you." Jin Lu Lu was surprisingly calm. "I knew it, you've found a new girlfriend here, right?" Gu Hai's face temperature suddenly dropped. "If you're still saying things like that, then you can just scram back to where you came from." Jin Lu Lu didn't speak a word, she only stared viciously toward class 27 which wasn't far from them, then she silently passed Gu Hai, she walked fast and vigorously towards the door of class 27. "Even if I have to scram, I must get to the bottom of this matter!" Gu Hai stepped back, then grabbed Jin Lu Lu's arm, her face was all purple. However, this girl is very strong, she doesn't even shed a single tear. "If you don't want to break up, just stand here obediently and hear me out." After all, Jin Lu Lu is not as stubborn as Gu Hai, emotionally, she has always been vulnerable. "If you think I'm not giving you enough of my time, I can apply for leave to the teacher right now, specially to accompany you for three days. The most important thing is this place isn't a suitable place for us to be together right now, I can accompany you to go back and you can torment me however you want there, but right here, you can't!" "Why?" Jin Lu Lu looked at Gu Hai. "Must there be a reason for everything?" 146
你丫上瘾了? "I only want you to be honest with me! I, Jin Lu Lu, am not that cheap, if you really have a girlfriend here, I'll leave even without you telling me to!" Gu Hai was tired of explaining. "Then just leave." During the whole lesson, Gu Hai's face expression didn't brighten up at all. There wasn't any movement outside the class, Gu Hai didn't know whether Jin Lu Lu had already left or not, but he knew that Jin Lu Lu won't give up easily. In the past, they've also fought over similar things so many times, and it was always Jin Lu Lu who conceded every single time. Gu Hai didn't need to worry that he will lose this relationship, he only need to think about how he will spend the next two days. The bell rang again, Dan Xiao Xuan appeared one more time in front of Gu Hai's anxious eyes. Bai Luo Yin stood up from his desk and walked outside, You Qi simply followed him from behind. "I don't understand anything about the lesson that the teacher had just taught us." Dan Xiao Xuan held her chin with her hand and blinked her eyes towards Gu Hai. Initially, Gu Hai was already irritated enough with just one girl, but then another one came, so he merely answered her with the remaining little patience he had. "I don't understand it either." Dan Xiao Xuan pulled Gu Hai's arm that was on his textbook, then she slowly parted Gu Hai's fingers, her voice was lovely yet so flirtatious. "I can do palm reading! It's really accurate!" Gu Hai pulled back his own hand then he went out, his grave and stern back simply disappeared from the entrance.

When Gu Hai came out from the toilet, he saw Bai Luo Yin smoking in the corridor. Gu Hai didn't know what he was talking about with You Qi, but both of them were smiling at each other, creating a very attractive sight. Gu Hai's gaze became more and more gloomy. You Qi saw Gu Hai standing not far from them and stylishly waved his hand towards Gu Hai. "Is that person just now your little brother?" "Your little brother!" Gu Hai's face darkened, even if he fought with Jin Lu Lu earlier, but still, he couldn't listen to other people talking about his girlfriend like this! You Qi passed a cigarette to Gu Hai. "Then, who is it?" Gu Hai replied with a cold tone, "My girlfriend." Bai Luo Yin's wandering gaze finally settled on Gu Hai. "Ah!! --" A loud voice broke the silence in that corner. The whole corridor suddenly seethed with excitement. "Looks like there are people fighting outside." You Qi popped out his head to find out what exactly happened. Bai Luo Yin replied faintly, "Why do I feel that the loud voice just now belongs to Dan Xiao Xuan?" The sound of a girl screaming and crying could be heard again, Gu Hai's facial expression changed, and he strode out suddenly. He hadn't even reached the classroom door when the scene before his eyes stopped his steps.
148
你丫上瘾了? Jin Lu Lu pulled Dan Xiao Xuan's hair, she held and pressed her onto the window, she slapped Dan Xiao Xuan's face repeatedly, the whole corridor was filled with Dan Xiao Xuan's cries. Jin Lu Lu seemed as if she hadn't vented her anger enough yet, she kicked Dan Xiao Xuan's stomach twice. Dan Xiao Xuan fell to the floor, she was crying while holding her stomach, but then Jin Lu Lu stepped on her. "Fuck you! You bitch!" You Qi and Bai Luo Yin also hastily came out from the bathroom. You Qi immediately recognized Jin Lu Lu at the first glance and directly elbowed Bai Luo Yin. "Say, how can Gu Hai be attracted to her?" Bai Luo Yin glanced at Jin Lu Lu lightly, his face showed no expression. "You ask me, how would I know?" "Don't you always stick together with Gu Hai all day long? He never told you anything about his girlfriend?" Apparently, Bai Luo Yin only responded You Qi's first question. "When did I always stick together with him?" "You always stick together with him all day!" You Qi was extremely angry, so he finally abandoned his permanently cool appearance to express some feelings, "Previously, both of you were archenemies, but now you two are always together all the time, the whole class is bewildered!" Bai Luo Yin didn't speak a word, he simply turned around and entered the classroom. You Qi only murmured at the back, "If you're together then you're together, it's not like you guys are dating, why so sensitive?" ........ Gu Hai brought the nearly mad Jin Lu Lu to the sports field. "What do you actually want to do?" Jin Lu Lu's mouth was also bleeding because Dan Xiao Xuan had scratched her with her fingers, she showed a broken smile over Gu Hai's question. "I just want her to know, what she would get for stealing my boyfriend." Gu Hai narrowed his eyes, he gave her a cold and sharp gaze. 149
Are you Addicted? "This is the last time I warn you, don't make groundless accusations onto me again." "If you don't have a new girlfriend, then why didn't you contact me?" Jin Lu Lu's voice was hoarse, "If you don't have a new girlfriend, why are you avoiding me and didn't let me show up at your classroom's door? Do you think I'm going to embarrass you? Do you think I'm not good enough for you?" "I really hate neurotic woman." Jin Lu Lu laughed loudly, "Since you already start to hate me anyway, then I will make you to hate me even more. You hate it when I show up at your classroom door, right? Well, then I'll come here every week, until you leave." Pitch-black clouds wafted over Gu Hai's darkened face. "Why do you always insist to stay here? What's so good in here?" "There's nothing good here. But you are right here." Jin Lu Lu's persistent eyes finally touched Gu Hai's nerves sharply, he went silent for a long time, then he extended his hand to wipe the bloodstains on Jin Lu Lu's mouth. "I'll bring you to the infirmary to get some medicine." "I'm not going!" Jin Lu Lu grabbed Gu Hai, her eyes was red, "Actually, what I want is really simple, I just want to see what kind of life you're living here, is it wrong? If you love a person, won't you care about his living condition? I just want to be a part of your life, that's what a couple is. What do you think about us? I don't even know where you live!" Gu Hai looked at Jin Lu Lu for a moment, he opened his mouth and said, "I promise you, I'll let you stay here for a few days." Jin Lu Lu's expression suddenly rejuvenated. "But I have one request!" This time, Jin Lu Lu's expression was very understanding. "Say it." "Do not mention about my family in front of my classmates, as well as my previous life condition. Now, you have to treat me like I'm a poor man. I'm poor, you have to remember these two words, no matter what you say or what you do, you can't be far away from those two words. And you, don't show off your wealth in front of my classmates, keep a low profile." "Poor?" Jin Lu Lu was puzzled, "How poor?" 150
你丫上瘾了? "As poor as possible." Jin Lu Lu was shocked for a while, but then she nodded. After all, Gu Hai's special status was just like when he was at his previous school, no one knew about his family's exact details either. As Gu Hai's girlfriend, she had enough experience to keep her boyfriend out of trouble.

After school ended, Bai Luo Yin was packing up his schoolbag when he felt his shoulders were pulled by someone until his body leaned backwards. He asked, "What's up?" "Let's eat lunch together, my girlfriend's treat." Bai Luo Yin paused, "She came here to find you, why are you dragging me along? I'm not going to be a third wheel." "Both of us are like a married couple, are there those kinds of refined feelings left? If I tell you to go then just go, why are you dawdling about?" Gu Hai stood up and without an explanation, he simply dragged Bai Luo Yin and walked outside. Jin Lu Lu was standing outside, when she saw Bai Luo Yin came out, she smiled brightly, "I've already found a good restaurant, we can go there by taxi." The three of them went to a restaurant, which was specialized in bone dish, the signature dish of that restaurant was lamb spine hotpot. Jin Lu Lu really loved to eat lamb, and she could eat every single part of it. She was extremely infatuated with the taste and smell of mutton, so much that she would crave for it just by smelling the aroma alone. "Sitting right here is okay." Jin Lu Lu took the menu, then ordered all kinds of dish. The lamb spine hotpot was very delicious, but it was quite hard to bite, when Bai Luo Yin noticed the people around them who ate with poor table manners, he couldn't help but to smile. He admired Jin Lu Lu, most girls would be afraid to eat lamb spine hotpot with her boyfriend. Three of them were talking and laughing, and one lamb spine hotpot arrived at their table, Jin Lu Lu rubbed her hands, her chopstick was moving nonstop in her bowl and her focused look was really like a child, it was as if the person who fought at the school was an entirely different person.
152
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai's chopsticks were moving around inside the pot, when he suddenly found a lamb's tail, everyone who had eaten lamb spine hotpot definitely knew that lamb tail's meat was the most delicious part. Jin Lu Lu blinked excitedly. Gu Hai took out the lamb's tail from the pot and then put it into Bai Luo Yin's bowl. "Try this, it tastes pretty good." This whole action felt like it had happened many times before, that it had become a habit. Gu Hai even forgot about the person next to him, whose favorite food is lamb's tail, and he casually gave what she likes to someone else's bowl. All girls were sensitive, even though she might not care about her outer appearance. "You're so biased!" Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin lifted their heads. "I love to eat lamb's tail, too." Jin Lu Lu said while pointing at Bai Luo Yin's bowl. "Well, isn't it easy?" Gu Hai called the waiter, "Give us one more pot of lamb's tail." "If you only want to order lamb's tail, because it's a premium item, you have to pay extra money." Jin Lu Lu waved her hand toward the waiter, then looked at Gu Hai, "I don't want one pot of lamb's tail, I only want to eat the one you just took out." What she actually meant was I only want to eat the lamb's tail that you just gave to Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin laughed as he suddenly remembered Shi Hui, it was as if all the girls in this world are like this. "Here, for you, I haven't bit it yet." Bai Luo Yin gave it to Jin Lu Lu. Jin Lu Lu winked at Gu Hai as if she was giving him a signal, you can well imagine her expression was very smug. When he saw that the most delicious part was in Jin Lu Lu's bowl, Gu Hai suddenly felt awfully upset. But the particular reason as to why he was so upset was unclear for him. After that he gave a lot of food to Bai Luo Yin, but no matter how much food he gave to him, he still felt that he had wronged Bai Luo Yin, he still felt like Bai Luo Yin hadn't ate well enough. This kind of feelings kept on bothering him until the bottom of the hotpot could be seen. 153
Are you Addicted? "Are you full already?" Gu Hai asked. Bai Luo Yin was almost full to burst already, he secretly pondered what kind of wind blow through Gu Hai today that he kept on placing food into his bowl, moreover he also asked whether he's already full or not, as if afraid that other people didn't know that Bai Luo Yin's appetite is really big. "Why are you so talkative?" Bai Luo Yin wiped his mouth. Gu Hai went silent for a while, then he shifted his attention to Jin Lu Lu. "Are you full?" Jin Lu Lu snorted, "So you still care about me, huh?" Bai Luo Yin suddenly inserted a joke. "There's no need for you to become jealous with the relationship between us guys." Jin Lu Lu taut face directly laughed out loud, in fact she wasn't really angry, she understood Gu Hai's temper. They've been together for three years already, whenever she was together with Gu Hai and his friends, Gu Hai would always put his buddies before her too, it's just that he showed it off too much this time. "Hey, I want to ask you something!" Jin Lu Lu seemed to talk with Bai Luo Yin, but her gaze was actually fixed on Gu Hai. Jin Lu Lu hadn't even asked yet but Bai Luo Yin had already opened his mouth to answer, "He doesn't have any girlfriend in the school, you don't have to worry." Jin Lu Lu was surprised, her eyes widened, "How do you know what I wanted to ask?" Gu Hai, who was beside him, replied, "He also had a girlfriend before." Jin Lu Lu unexpectedly heard a hint of jealousy in Gu Hai's sentence. After they exited the restaurant, Jin Lu Lu quietly warned Bai Luo Yin, "Help me to look after him a bit, I'll give you my phone number, so when something happens just give me a call." Bai Luo Yin merely smiled without a word. Gu Hai pushed his bike and glanced at Bai Luo Yin. "Are you going or not?" Bai Luo Yin walked straight pass Gu Hai and told him a few words. "Do you come here without your brain today?" 154
你丫上瘾了? Fortunately, when Gu Hai used his eyes to give signal to Bai Luo Yin a moment ago, Jin Lu Lu was in the middle of bending her body to fix her trousers, and when she lifted up her head, she smiled brightly at Gu Hai. "Let's go!" Gu Hai stepped on his pedals while fixing his gaze on Bai Luo Yin, who was gradually getting further away from them. Jin Lu Lu excitedly sat on the backseat, even though she didn't have much room to sit, this new kind of feeling caused all of her bad mood to disappear. She put her hands on Gu Hai's waist, her face was glowing with excitement, every girl has a romantic dream and this dream often starts from riding a bicycle. Countless luxurious car won't be able to compare to the beautiful scenery and broad back. This is truly the taste of youthfulness, spreading along the narrow and winding road, his special and sweet scent was blooming quietly, impossible to get rid of for a long time. The speed of the bike was very slow, they were gradually getting closer with figure in front of them. Bai Luo Yin was walking on the road, broad shoulders as before, straight back, strong and vigorous steps.... But in Gu Hai's eyes, he felt that Bai Luo Yin was kind of lonely. When Gu Hai rode until Bai Luo Yin's side, Jin Lu Lu coughed deliberately and it made him turn his head, he looked at Jin Lu Lu and smiled. During that brief moment when they brush past each other, Gu Hai suddenly accelerated his speed. One of Jin Lu Lu's arm hugged Gu Hai's waist tightly, and she raised her other arm while shouting loudly. "This is my first time riding a bike, it feels really great!" "Really pitiful." "Eh?..." The two words that Gu Hai said all of a sudden, puzzled Jin Lu Lu. "Who's pitiful?" Gu Hai faintly replied, "Don't you think Bai Luo Yin is really pitiful?" "He's pitiful?" Jin Lu Lu was even more confused, "Why is he pitiful?" "You're riding a bike, he's walking, don't you think he's really pitiful?" Jin Lu Lu felt that Gu Hai's words was unreasonable. 155
Are you Addicted? "He's an adult, what's pitiful about walking just a few steps?" Gu Hai didn't say a word. Jin Lu Lu pinched Gu Hai's waist, "Why I've never known before that you could care about someone like this?" Gu Hai lowered his tone. "How many times have I warned you already? Don't pinch my waist." Jin Lu Lu rolled her eyes towards the sky, she felt extremely angry. She waved her fingers, she wanted to hug Gu Hai's waist again, but she didn't dare to do it. She knew Gu Hai's temper, he lacks patience and tolerance the most. If she wanted to stay with him for a long time, the most important thing is she has to be obedient and sensible.
156
你丫上瘾了?
Chapter 44: Are you being possessed? Translator: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You... you live in this place?" After getting down from the bike and returning to reality, the Missus was immediately disconcerted. Jin Lu Lu walked inside while furrowing her eyebrows, scrutinizing her surroundings. More than ten people lived in this small courtyard house. In front of them, there's a woman who's in the middle of coaxing her crying son. The child had just fallen down and hurt his forehead, he was bawling as if there was a razor blade in his throat, making other people feel uncomfortable when they listened to him. "A... ptoey..." Jin Lu Lu turned her head towards the sound and saw an old man spitting a mouthful of phlegm nearby her feet. When Gu Hai opened his door, Jin Lu Lu's step froze in front of the entrance. The dark room was not more than ten meters square, inside the room, there was a single bed, a less-than-20-inch-length television, a square table with flaking paint. Moreover, when she entered the room, a damp and moldy stench could be smelled right away. "People can live in this place?" Jin Lu Lu used her hands to rub her arm. Gu Hai poured himself a glass of water and drank from it, he also poured a glass for Jin Lu Lu. "Why can't people live here? I've stayed with the army for so many years, the condition there wasn't much better but I can still live in it." Jin Lu Lu expressed her disagreement, "But this place... isn't it too awful?" "There's no good house in this neighborhood." Jin Lu Lu pulled Gu Hai to sit down, she still couldn't accept it. "Do you really have to find a house in this area? There're many apartments nearby your school that you can choose from! Why do you have to insist on coming here and live in suffering?" "I like this neighborhood." 157
Are you Addicted? "Is... is this place really that good?" "It's quiet." Jin Lu Lu was unable to accept this kind of excuse. "Didn't your dad give you allowance?" Gu Hai lit a cigarette and smoked reticently. When Jin Lu Lu saw Gu Hai's current appearance, she felt a wave of throbbing pain in her heart. "If you really have no money, you can ask me! Li Shuo and Hu Zi are also rich, aren't they? Maybe they won't be able to draw out a few hundred thousands, but they surely have a few ten thousand yuan, right? Use it to rent a nicer house, won't you? Do you really need to run yourself down to this extent? Besides, a dead starved camel is still bigger than a horse, even if your dad didn't give you any allowance, don't you always have some savings of your own?" "I truly wanted to live here, it's not related with money issues." Jin Lu Lu choked and coughed because of the smoke, she hastily opened the wrinkled window. Suddenly, she caught the sight of an old-model phone close to her. "Don't tell me you used this phone to call me every day?" "Yeah, that's right." Jin Lu Lu really wanted to cry, "No matter how loud I speak, the signal is still not good all day!" Gu Hai took off his shoes and get up on the bed, both of his hand rested behind his head and his eyes stared at the ceilings. Jin Lulu walked back and forth inside the room, honestly there's nothing good here, so she started to look through Gu Hai's schoolbag. There's nothing inside, only books. Looking at it this way, it seems like he really doesn't walk on a path of luck. "Hey, why do you write your name differently from the design I gave you?" Jin Lu Lu looked at Gu Hai furiously. Gu Hai rose from the bed and walked until he arrived in front of Jin Lu Lu, his eyes sparked an unusual, radiant light. "Let me show you something." 158
你丫上瘾了? Jin Lu Lu stood beside him expectantly, she wanted to know what kind of treasure that Gu Hai had that make him so excited. "Look at the handwriting in these two papers, is it similar?" Jin Lu Lu picked up the papers and studied them for a while, one paper was Bai Luo Yin's writing while the other one was Gu Hai's, imitating Bai Luo Yin's handwriting. "It's not the same," Jin Lu Lu told Gu Hai objectively, "It's totally different." Gu Hai couldn't accept this kind of answer, both of his dashing eyebrows were furrowed together. "It doesn't resemble each other, not even a bit? Don't look at the shape of character, look at the style of handwriting, the style, do you understand?" "No matter how much I look at it, it's still different." Gu Hai took the paper and tossed it to the table, he showed a composed look without uttering a sound. Jin Lu Lu was amused by Gu Hai's particular expression. Although they had been together for three years, but she'd never seen him fret because of such a petty little thing before. The current Gu Hai truly looked like a 17-year-old boy who couldn't bear to see his own flaws, not even a tiny bit. Only Gu Hai himself knew that almost all of his spare time were dedicated to exercise his handwriting. That night, both of them crammed together to sleep in one bed. Jin Lu Lu smelled Gu Hai's enchanting body scent, her eyes squinted slightly and kissed Gu Hai's chin lightly. Gu Hai placed his hand on Jin Lu Lu's back and caressed her gently. Jin Lu Lu softly bit into Gu Hai's ear, the heat of her breath spread all over half of his face. Gu Hai's flat and enticing lower abdomen slightly drew tight, his powerful legs hooked Jin Lu Lu and he easily held her below him. Jin Lu Lu laughed, fascinated, and then she placed her hands on Gu Hai's neck. "Say..." "Hn?" Jin Lu Lu gazed at Gu Hai lovingly. The corner of Gu Hai's lips evoked a bewitched smile.
159
Are you Addicted? "Supposed if Bai Luo Yin, that bad tempered and sulky guy, were to sleep in one bed with other people, what will he look like? Will he moan pleasurably? Or will he swear from time to time?" When Gu Hai was talking, his eyesight drifted away from their romantic world. Jin Lu Lu used her hands to stroke Gu Hai's forehead and faintly asked him a question: "Are you being possessed?" "Hn?" "Go to sleep!" Jin Lu Lu retorted bitterly, rolled over and ignored Gu Hai.

Chapter 45: A String of Candied-fruit Skewer. Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Three stressful days had finally passed. Early in the morning, when the sky was still dark, Gu Hai already woke up. First, he went to the park not far from his home to exercise for half an hour. When he guessed that the time was just about enough, he rode on his bike and went straight to Bai Luo Yin's house. For the last two days, Bai Luo Yin got used to walking to school, so he went to school a bit earlier. When Gu Hai was on his way to Bai Luo Yin's house, he had already arrived at Aunt Zou's breakfast stall. "Why didn't you wait for me?" Bai Luo Yin lifted his head, and he saw a faint trace of joy pass through Gu Hai's face. "How do I know that you'll come here to eat?" Gu Hai took the bean curd that Aunt Zou brought to him, stirred it gently with the spoon, and replied, "Don't I always eat here everyday?" "But you didn't come here for the last two days, right?" There was a hint of amusement behind Gu Hai's smile. "Why? Did you miss me?" Bai Luo Yin replied him with cold voice, "Why would I miss you? Your girlfriend went back already?" Gu Hai nodded, he looked extremely relieved, "She's finally gone." Bai Luo Yin glanced at Gu Hai, his tone was neither cold nor hot, "You can't be like this, she already told me to pay attention to you. Now, look at you being this shameful, I'm afraid that I can't do this." "Did you take her words seriously?" Gu Hai conveniently placed the ham sausages from his sesame seed buns into Bai Luo Yin's bowl. "We've been together for three years, but she has always been so paranoid, honestly, I've never gotten physical with any other girls."
161
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin couldn't bear but to speak the truth, "With her looks, no wonder she would feel insecure." "I'm going to hit you, believe it or not." Gu Hai said as he laughed. Bai Luo Yin lamented, "Dan Xiao Xuan suffered a beating for nothing." "I have no interest in her, she's the one who came and stuck herself to me." "You're not the least touched? A pretty girl like her, isn't she better than that 'tigress' of yours?" Bai Luo Yin teased Gu Hai on purpose. Gu Hai didn't get angry, not even a bit, it seemed like he got used to hearing these kind of things. "I don't like a girl like her. I like the fierce and straightforward type. A girl like Dan Xiao Xuan, just by standing with her, I would feel tired already." Gu Hai glanced at Bai Luo Yin, "What kind of girl do you like?" "The opposite of yours, I like the flirty type." Gu Hai firmly grabbed on Bai Luo Yin's nape. "Then, why is it that whenever Dan Xiao Xuan came to me, you always ran away?" Bai Luo Yin joked faintly, yet there were thorns in his words. "Her?..... I've had enough." ...... "Candied--- Fruit---- Skewer--!!" The familiar shout surged into Gu Hai's ears, his heart brightened, he really didn't expect that there're still street vendors who shouted loudly like this these days. It seemed like it's been a really long time since the last time he ate candied fruit skewers, he used to live in a quiet and scary neighborhood before, forget street vendors, even snack bars were rare. He would occasionally come across a candied fruit skewer store on the road, but he had no desire to go inside. "Uncle, please give me one." "Do you want the Shan Li Hong one or Ma Shan Yao one [1]?" "Shan Li Hong." The bright red Shan Li Hong was coated with sparkling, crystal-clear malt sugar and wrapped with a layer of rice paper. It was held in a quivering hand. Gu Hai hand it over to Bai Luo Yin, "Eat this!" 162
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin was puzzled, "Why did you only buy one? Aren't you going to eat?" "I'm riding, I can't eat it." Bai Luo Yin sat on the back seat, then he took a crisp bite. "It's very sweet!" Gu Hai in front pretended he didn't hear that. Bai Luo Yin took another bite, intentionally teasing Gu Hai. "Don't you want to try?" Gu Hai clenched his teeth tightly, his patience almost ran out. After a while, Bai Luo Yin didn't speak at all, his mouth was filled with the candied fruit skewer, it sounded really crispy and delicious. Gu Hai was counting in the front, one, two, three.... it was almost all gone. If he continued holding back this way, then he wouldn't be able to eat even a bite. Gu Hai was riding on a straight road, just when he was about to take a chance and turn his head around, he felt someone pat his shoulder. He barely turned his head to the side, the half-eaten skewer of glistening hawthorn fruit was placed into his mouth. He finally succeeded. After he ate one bite, it's really sweet! Gu Hai felt as if his entire heart was soaked inside a honey jar. How can the candied fruit that was given by Xiao Bai be this sweet? "Give me another one!" Bai Luo Yin guarded his food, "It's gone." "Give me a bite!" "It's gone." "......" During break time, You Qi turned his body around and looked at Bai Luo Yin. "Let's go downstairs to buy some things." Bai Luo Yin nodded, then both of them stood up from their desks. Gu Hai coldly tossed a sentence from the back.
163
Are you Addicted? "You even need someone to accompany you just to buy some things? Can't you buy your things alone?" You Qi really wanted to give Gu Hai a couple of kicks, it's been a few times, he simply wanted to do something with Bai Luo Yin, then Gu Hai would certainly say some sarcastic words to him. And you said that he's really impatient with him? He is definitely the one at a disadvantage. Just look at the muscles on Gu Hai's arm, that alone could shatter your teeth into pieces until you swallowed them into your stomach. Well! I'll just pretend I didn't hear him. You Qi just adopted a shameless attitude, then he pulled Bai Luo Yin to go outside. Gu Hai suddenly stood up, then he ran to the spot between those two guys, just like a leopard, his arm hung on Bai Luo Yin's nape, then smiled faintly at him, "Just ignore him, go downstairs with me to play ball." "Why can't you go by yourself?" You Qi was annoyed. Gu Hai's cold and sharp gaze fell on him, "Can you play a ball game with only one person?" You Qi ignored him, and he merely said a sentence to Bai Luo Yin, "Anyway, you already nodded your head just now." After You Qi finished speaking, he planned to pull Bai Luo Yin over. However, he barely managed to stretch his arm when viselike hands had pinched him. You Qi began to grind his teeth yet he didn't utter a word, his face was almost purple, he had no choice but to seek help from Bai Luo Yin. "Quick! If you don't help me soon, my arm will break!" Bai Luo Yin grabbed Gu Hai and You Qi's arms, separated them and coldly replied. "You two go by yourselves then, go where you want to go." "......." After the third class, You Qi turned his head to the back while holding his exam paper. "I didn't understand this question, can you explain it to me?" Bai Luo Yin just woke up, he rubbed his eyes, then looked at the question on the exam paper, replied, "First, you calculate all the given conditions, then you would understand how to solve it." You Qi took a piece of tissue to blow his nose, and he replied to Bai Luo Yin while blowing his nose, "I calculated it already, but I still couldn't do it." 164
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai indistinctly glared on You Qi's eyes, deep in his eyes, the challenge was evident in the depth of his eyes. Bai Luo Yin hastily answered You Qi's question and asked him again, "Do you understand?" You Qi shook his head. Bai Luo Yin explained thoroughly to You Qi once more, then asked, "Do you understand?" You Qi still shook his head. Gu Hai sneered in his mind, an act just like Dan Xiao Xuan? Okay, I'll give you a similar fate as her. "You still don't understand?" Bai Luo Yin asked one more time. You Qi still shook his head. Gu Hai's voice could be heard faintly from the back. "Come here, I'll explain it to you." You Qi immediately withdrew his paper, "I suddenly understand." "You don't understand." Gu Hai stressed each word. You Qi turned his body around, he felt a chilly wind pass through his back. After five seconds, he felt like a burst of hurricane blew all over him, You Qi tilted his head, and he saw a pair of eyes resembling a bottomless black hole. "I came to explain this to you, so you would understand it completely, and to make sure that the next time you see this question, you won't make any mistakes again." Gu Hai's voice was very light, just like a blade, streaking You Qi's sensitive and fragile heart. "Ah---!!" One constrained shriek was drowned by the classroom's noises and glee. ....... It's getting colder these past few days, when he's riding his bike the wind would felt particularly cold and Gu Hai could only shrank his neck. He left his thick clothes at his home, when he left his home he forgot to bring any, now he was so embarrassed to go back and get them, Gu Hai was thinking to buy a few pieces. "Hey, where can you buy the cheapest clothes in Beijing?" Gu Hai turned his head to Bai Luo Yin and asked. 165
Are you Addicted? "At Dong Wu Yuan." Gu Hai nodded, "Then, accompany me tomorrow to go there to buy a couple of thick clothes." "Okay." Unconsciously, Gu Hai found out that Bai Luo Yin rarely rejects him now. "Do you know how to bargain? Teach me." "You don't need to learn it. When you're there, you'll naturally know how to do it." The next morning, Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai was on the subway, actually on Saturday it wasn't supposed to be crowded, but they happened to be on the same carriage with a tour group, a huge crowd was packed inside the two railway carriages and it was overcrowded inside. Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin stood at the corner. When Gu Hai noticed a group of people started to squeeze them, he hastily used both of his hands to support his body on the wall inside the carriage, so he could give a big space for Bai Luo Yin and to let him stand a bit more comfortably. Bai Luo Yin pulled Gu Hai's collar, "Come and stand a little bit closer to me." Gu Hai didn't move. There was a girl beside them who continuously fixed her eyes on Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai, her eyeballs were unlikely to shift from them. Gu Hai realized and asked her with an icy tone, "What are you looking at?" The girl quickly turned her head away. Bai Luo Yin turned Gu Hai's head to him again, he didn't know whether to get angry or to laugh at him. "Say, what do you think she's looking at?" Gu Hai had yet to react. "If you kiss me, then the whole people in this carriage will definitely look at both of us!" "........" "How much is this shirt?" "I'm not selling this for less than 39 Yuan!"
166
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin immediately retorted, "I'm here to pick up stock, can you sell it for 15 Yuan?" Gu Hai honestly felt that Bai Luo Yin is very ruthless, in his eyes, 15 Yuan shirt is not a clothes, but a rag instead. "Even if you're picking up stock I can't sell it for 15 Yuan!" "Then, forget it." Bai Luo Yin turned around to leave, but the owner suddenly got up and stopped him. "Young man, do you really want it? If you really want it then we can discuss it again." "I don't want to discuss, it's 15 Yuan." "Okay okay, just come over here and pick them. This young man, you're too good at bargaining." Finally, the two people carried a large bag of clothes, but they only spent less than 200 Yuan, Gu Hai felt that it was very worth it. They arrived at one stall, Gu Hai took a fancy on a piece of cotton-padded coat. "How much is this?" Gu Hai asked. The aunt inside the stall lifted her eyes to look at Gu Hai, "I won't sell it for less than 200 Yuan." "I'm here to pick up stock, can you sell it for 15 Yuan?" The aunt put down the knitting wool in her hand, she wore a mocking expression and looked at Gu Hai, "Picking up stock? Even if you came here to rob me, I'm not selling it to you! 15 Yuan, are you kidding me?" Gu Hai said decisively, "15 Yuan, if not then I'm really going." After he finished, he pulled Bai Luo Yin and pretended to leave. "You should hurry up and leave!" From behind them, the aunt added one more sentence, "Are you so poor that it drives you crazy? 15 Yuan! Do you think the inside of these coats is made of grass?" _________________________ [1] Tanghulu (candied-fruit skewer) is a traditional Chinese snack, which is a string of sugarcoated fruits on a bamboo skewer. The literal meaning of tanghulu is "sugar bottle gourd", as it is coated with sugar and the shape resembles bottle gourd. The fruit commonly used is Chinese hawthorn. In this chapter, the two types of tanghulu sold were, Shan Li Hong, which is Chinese hawthorn (Crataegus pinnatifida var. major), and Ma Shan Yao which is Chinese yam (Dioscorea opposita).

Beautiful trees were lined on both roadsides of the neat rows of European-style villas, each circular arc-shaped small windows were patterned with plaster stone, giving an elegant and noble feeling. Sitting in the car, his gaze was directed towards the window, his eyes were quiet and peaceful, but there was a faint trace of solemnity and dignity on his face. "Commander, you've arrived." Two young men dressed in military uniform opened the car doors for him, they focused their attention on escorting Gu Wei Ting down from his car, then two security guards in front of them opened the villa's door for him and respectfully escorted Gu Wei Ting inside. "You've come back!" Jiang Yuan warmly pulled Gu Wei Ting inside, she unbuttoned Gu Wei Ting's shirt while smiling, "The food will be done in a while, I thought you won't be coming home, I'll reheat the food again." Gu Wei Ting's rigid and stern face finally eased up a bit. After he changed his clothes, Gu Wei Ting went to the bathroom to wash his hands, but suddenly he saw Gu Hai's toothbrush cup sat quietly on the rack, the water was already flowing, yet Gu Wei Ting was completely oblivious. During the dinner, Jiang Yuan asked carefully, "Xiao Hai still doesn't want to come back?" Gu Wei Ting's face fell, "There's no need to think about him, this kid is not disciplined enough. If I didn't let him to experience hardship, he would never know how lucky he is to be at his own home." Jiang Yuan sighed, there was a hint of anxiety on her gentle and lovely cheek, "But to make him suffer like this is also unacceptable! He's only 17 years old, this is the most important time for him in his entire life, if he really tasted the hardship, and if it left a scar on his heart because he actually experienced it, won't he hate you for a lifetime?" "A big guy like him is not that fragile, bearing hardship is for his experience and training, just like when I was young...."
168
你丫上瘾了? "Are there any illegal cooking oil when you were young?" Jiang Yuan interrupted Gu Wei Ting's speech, "Are there any melamine in the powdered milk you drank when you were young? When you were sick, will the doctor give you toxic capsules? The present time is different from that time, if you drive him off, it won't give him any training and experience, it will make him suffer instead, it will cause him to become socially vulnerable." Gu Wei Ting never expected that a housewife like Jiang Yuan would be able to say such sharp words like this, for a moment, he couldn't find any word to refute her, so he merely ate in silence. Jiang Yuan used her chopsticks to stir her rice, she casted a glance at Gu Wei Ting and incisively asked, "Otherwise, let me talk to him." "You don't need to find him, he won't put up a smiling face for you." "I'll go and try! You see, he's gone because I'm here, basically, he doesn't want to see me at all! If I can make him to think rationally, if I can change his impression of me, won't this solve the problem between the both of you?" "Don't worry about it!" Gu Wei Ting gave some vegetables to Jiang Yuan, "You have to worry about your own son! He has lived a tough life, think of a way for him to come here as early as possible, it is more important. If he doesn't want to live here, then I can arrange a separate house for him. Our house in Guo Mao Qiao is vacant, right? If it's really impossible for him to live here then just let him move there." "That's not okay." Jiang Yuan put down her chopstick. "That house was arranged for Xiao Hai, if you let Luoyin to live there, won't Xiao Hai want to kill you?" "Hmm..." Gu Wei Ting's face blackened. "Look at his attitude, he doesn't even want to come back, why would I still give a house to him?" "I'll go and talk to Xiao Hai, persuade him to come back." Jiang Yuan tugged at Gu Wei Ting's arm, her face showed a pleading expression. Gu Wei Ting paused, and then nodded. "Then, how about Luoyin?" When Jiang Yuan heard Bai Luo Yin's name, she began to frown worriedly, "I completely have no idea what to do with that kid, he doesn't even want to see me." "Then let's do this, I'll go and see him." "Huh?" Jiang Yuan surprised. Gu Wei Ting put down his chopsticks. "I'll go and talk to him." 169
Are you Addicted? "This.... This kid is extremely stubborn, you..... don't be too hard on him." Jiang Yuan was worried that her son would suffer. "Don't worry!" Gu Wei Ting placed his hand on top of Jiang Yuan's hand, comforted her. "I know my limits."

Chapter 47: The War of Words between Xiao Bai and Lao Gu. Translator: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The class course was still explaining about the exam papers. The chemistry teacher wore a serious look and coldly swept the class a glance, "Are there any questions that you cannot do?" "The first question..." The class cried out sporadically in a lifeless manner. The chemistry teacher raised her eyebrows, her face ferocious, while the tone of her voice sounded like she wanted to blast cliffs. "You still can't solve the first question? Huh? Who can't solve it? Raise your hand, let me see!" No one dared to raise their hands. The chemistry teacher heaved a breath, "Alright, we'll skip this question, are there any other question you can't solve?" "The fourth question?" "You also can't solve the fourth question?" It's still the same snarl, "How many times have I explained it? Yet there're still some of you who can't solve this question? Those who still don't understand, find an empty space after the class and smoke a few mouthfuls. Next time, you'll be able solve it." No one uttered a single sound. "Are there any more questions you cannot solve?" A weak, feeble voice rang out, "The tenth question." "The tenth question?" The chemistry teacher placed both of her hands in her waist and angrily stared at 50 to 60 people, with a posture that screamed 'hate iron for not becoming steel' [1], "Isn't the solution to this problem clear? Huh? A towards 1? Obviously wrong! B towards 1? How could it be? Now look at D, only a fool will choose this. Therefore, you should choose C! Does this question still needs to be explained?" "......" 171
Are you Addicted? "Are there any more questions you cannot solve?" The students in the class yelled together, "There's no more, we can do everything." The chemistry teacher abruptly smacked the table, her roar was just like a tsunami, sweeping over the ears of each students. "There's no question you cannot do? If every one of you can do everything then why are we still having this class? If every one of you can do everything, then why no one got full marks?" "......" A squeaking noise could be heard as the classroom's front door was pushed open. "Teacher Chen, I'm sorry to disturb you for a while, I'm looking for a student." When Luo Xiao Yu's melodious and bright voice rang out, it immediately let the dead classroom to feel a kind of warm spring breeze. Everyone eagerly looked at her, hoping that the person she's looking for is themself. The chemistry teacher grunted calmly, as if she was disgusted that other people interrupted her class. "Bai Luo Yin, come out for a moment." After Bai Luo Yin went out, Luo Xiao Yu led him out of the school building. Bai Luo Yin didn't ask who is the person that requested for him, meanwhile Luo Xiao Yu also didn't tell him. Nevertheless, from Luo Xiao Yu's stern complexion, it could be seen that the person looking for him this time was surely not an average person. Bai Luo Yin himself had already guessed the general idea in his mind. A military car was quietly parked below the shade of a tree, Bai Luo Yin walked over impassively. "Please, come in." A person opened the door for Bai Luo Yin, his appearance respectful and submissive. Bai Luo Yin, without any hint of nervousness, directly entered the car, allowing the two officers to bring him to a teahouse. Gu Wei Ting wore a neat military uniform, he was sitting in a private room, waiting for Bai Luo Yin. "Reporting to senior officer, he is already brought here safely." "You can go out."
172
你丫上瘾了? The smell of tea wafted faintly all over the room, Bai Luo Yin silently watched Gu Wei Ting, no change of feelings could be seen from the inside of his eyes. "Come and sit, son." It was very rare that Gu Wei Ting's manner of speaking could be this gentle and soft. Bai Luo Yin confidently sat in front of Gu Wei Ting, he still kept his mouth shut. Gu Wei Ting casually scrutinized Bai Luo Yin, for once he was quite amazed. Generally speaking, a 16-17 year old child would have been struck with terror if they saw a person like him. However, Bai Luo Yin doesn't show the slightest amount of fear. His clothing is plain and simple, yet there is no hint of submissiveness in his posture. A flash of resilience could be seen in the center of his eyes, Gu Wei Ting couldn't help but to appreciate and admire him. If you were to ask Bai Luo Yin, what was his first impression of Gu Wei Ting, there's only one. Why is it the longer he looked at this old man, the more he looked familiar? "You have probably guessed what I am doing, looking for you. I am your mother's current husband and your stepfather as well. Previously, your mother had tried to find you, requested you to move in and live together with us. However, you refused. I've also predicted that it would come to this, therefore the reason I looked for you today is not to interfere with your present life, but simply to act as an elder and give you some suggestions in life and education." Bai Luo Yin didn't sense any hint of suggestion at all, every word is an undisguised order. The way Gu Wei Ting feigned gentleness and kindness, is a completely condescending attitude In Bai Luo Yin's eyes. "Thank you." Two brief words. Gu Wei Ting didn't take any offence that Bai Luo Yin was cold and indifferent to him, he simply continued to impart the principles that everyone acknowledged. "A young man ought to have a share of stubbornness and the spirit not to admit defeat, at this point, you and my son are very similar. To tell you the truth, both of you are about the same age, he is also stubborn and rarely take my words seriously. However, if it is related to the gain and loss of his own major issues, he's able to judge calmly. We are all men, it's impossible to live solely for the love between man and woman. Even if it's for your father's sake, you shouldn't restrict yourself in this kind of environment. While you consider this as a devotion and responsibility towards your dearest people, it is actually a type of self-abandonment in disguise." 173
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin slowly held the teacup and drank a mouthful, from its rich fragrance, it was a high-quality tea indeed. "I believe I can give you a better living environment, this is our obligation. You may refuse to live together with us, but you should not refuse a good opportunity. If you are a clever person, you should not regard your mother as an enemy, you ought to deprive her whole possession, she tried as much as possible to make up for her shortcomings these past few years. This is not a type of gift or a pity, this is your right. If you don't value it, then it indicates that you are not mature enough, it cannot prove your integrity." "I think, you have misunderstood." "Oh?" Gu Wei Ting's eyes revealed his disbelief, "What have I misunderstood?" "I have never felt that I have to demand anything from Jiang Yuan, as I have never considered her as my mother at all." Gu Wei Ting was speechless. Bai Luo Yin stood up, and used his eyes to hint at Gu Wei Ting politely, "If there is nothing left to be discussed, I'll return to my class." "Only you yourself know, whether or not you consider her as your mother." Gu Wei Ting's voice loomed faintly from Bai Luo Yin's back, his tone was not heavy yet each of his words was sharp and piercing. "If one day you succeed, the one who obtain the benefit is definitely not me or your mother. You must think this over carefully." "Thank you very much." Bai Luo Yin smiled evenly, "I believe I am a talented person, even if I don't take any shortcuts, I can also succeed." _________________________ [1] 'Hate iron for not becoming steel' is a Chinese idiom, meaning to be resentful towards somebody for failing to meet expectations and feel impatient to see their improvement.

Chapter 48: I'll let you vent your anger. Translator: Sienna7455 Proofreader: Estreline ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The afternoon break was the paradise of wrestlers. They were called wrestlers because a group of men who loved to wrestle would gather at the corridor for 15 minutes during the afternoon break. You fight me, I fight you, you fight him... continuously until the last person, which was granted the title of Wrestling King, the leading juniors of the current floor went to another floor to provoke the others. Finally, the person who had beaten all of his opponents all over the school grounds would be bestowed the title, God of Wrestling. It's both a childish and hearty game. Before Gu Hai arrived, there were numerous Wrestling Kings in the third floor. After Gu Hai arrived, not one of those Wrestling Kings dared to stick their head out. The remaining few people who came to challenge him were surely that kind of impulsive and inexperienced ones. They obviously realized that they wouldn't be able to beat him, yet they still wanted to challenge him. It seemed like if they were able to exchange a few punches with Gu Hai, it could increase their level by one. The people who looked for Gu Hai to challenge him was plentiful today, most likely those aches they received from the previous fights had become somewhat better. Originally, Gu Hai was irritated as well, he didn't see any sign Bai Luo Yin at all for the past two classes! What should he do? Beside venting his anger on these squanderers, is there any other kind of good diversion that he could find? "Alright!..." Along with a round of loud cheering, countless cannon fodder appeared before Gu Hai's feet. The last two people moved forward at the same time, Gu Hai first did one big movement, he swing his arms and knocked a 1.8-meter big jock, it was yet another beautiful shoulder throw. The guy who lied on the ground was crying out painfully. The whole group of people was playing excitingly, then an unknown person shouted a sentence. "Bai Luo Yin has returned, let him fight Gu Hai."
175
Are you Addicted? This particular sentence immediately roused a rowdy jeering from the crowd, the uproar reverberating through the entire corridor. Prior to Gu Hai's arrival, Bai Luo Yin was not an easily beatable person as well, even though he was not the strongest, nevertheless he was highly skilled and agile, making it difficult for his opponent to gain an upper hand on him. During the split second that Gu Hai noticed Bai Luo Yin, his mood rose and fell quite a several times. At first, he was relaxed and a hint of happiness seeped through his heart, yet upon seeing his complexion, Gu Hai's heart suddenly tightened once more... He didn't understand the influence that Bai Luo Yin had towards his own emotions was this big, it was as if he lost control of his own feelings as they naturally followed Bai Luo Yin's moods. "Come, let's fight one time." Bai Luo Yin took the initiative to declare war. Gu Hai felt that Bai Luo Yin was unusual, he was extremely out of the ordinary. When he was still mulling over this problem, Bai Luo Yin had already lifted his leg. Fortunately, Gu Hai's step was quick and steady enough, if Bai Luo Yin's sudden kick were to hit an average person, they would surely be on the ground already. Only after this disadvantage, that Gu Hai looked at the person in front of him squarely, he is not in a good mood, he is waiting impatiently to vent his anger, therefore, I will accompany him. For several seconds both parties refused to budge, Bai Luo Yin took the initiative to attack once more, he liked to search for the flaws in other people's defense. Looks like Gu Hai's weakness is difficult to be found, it's hard to be struck as well. The crucial point is in his arm and legs, they are too powerful. Even if he managed to find a flaw, it will be very hard for Bai Luo Yin to topple him. It's just like a 500-kg boulder, although you are highly skilled, you won't be able to move it. Gu Hai saw a chance, during Bai Luo Yin's repeated assault where his arms exerted strength and his steps alternate constantly, he suddenly dodged behind him and used his arms to embrace Bai Luo Yin's waist as an attempt to disrupt his center of gravity. However, Bai Luo Yin saw through his particular trick, he swiftly used his elbow to jab at Gu Hai's back with all of his strength. This is actually Gu Hai's weakest place. When Bai Luo Yin shoved him from below, Gu Hai was pushed back a few steps. This guy is too sneaky, he can find my weak spot in such a short time... One side of Gu Hai's waist was still limp and numb when Bai Luo Yin pounced on him the second time, this time his momentum was even more violent. Gu Hai sensed that something has definitely provoked Bai Luo Yin, or else he won't be putting up such a 176
你丫上瘾了? deadly stance. Gu Hai didn't dare to approach Bai Luo Yin too hard, as he was afraid that he will hurt him for real during the fight, and when that time comes, Bai Luo Yin will surely be the one to get the worst of it. He must end this as soon as possible. However, the reality is much harder than Gu Hai's imagination, he had truly underestimated Bai Luo Yin as he didn't cease his assaults, every move was exactly ruthless, every attack was particularly aimed at Gu Hai's weak spot. If Bai Luo Yin's position were to be replaced by other people, Gu Hai would have punched them all the way up to the South Wall already. Bai Luo Yin noted that Gu Hai is an experienced fighter, he is completely on a different level compared to the other students here. Each of his movements and steps are all planned and calculated, he has definitely undergo special training, it's not that he could counter several of the techniques around the world. He has no other choice but to go all out. It doesn't matter whether it is Gu Hai or himself who tumbles down, as long as he can throw a few punches, it can slightly cheer his heart up already. Gu Hai felt that right now Bai Luo Yin has a posture resembling 'shouting mountain and roaring sea' [1], meanwhile the expression in his eyes clearly screamed 'I want to beat you to death'. The corner of his lips kept on smiling, yet it was a grim smile, the depths of his eyes yearn for freedom from a hopeless situation. Beads of sweat dripped from Bai Luo Yin's forehead, wantonly giving him a wild and unruly look. Gu Hai was very steady all the way, showing a firm and unwavering charm. The two energetic and vigorous young men wrestle against each other, secretly comparing their own strength with their opponent's as well as recognizing each other's worth. Gu Hai was reluctant to knock Bai Luo Yin down, yet he was also unwilling to let himself lose. Bai Luo Yin could see a kind of consolation deep inside Gu Hai's eyes, and to his surprise, his mood started to heal slowly. When he spotted an opening, Bai Luo Yin started to attack, Gu Hai continuously retreated, his center of gravity was thoroughly pushed back and in a way, giving Bai Luo Yin a false impression. Bai Luo Yin rapidly launched a barrage of attacks, then Gu Hai noticed the gap between his legs and abruptly extended his legs to trip Bai Luo Yin. This was a suicidal move, because Gu Hai's center of gravity was very low, when Bai Luo Yin stumbled, at the same time Gu Hai also fell down while facing sky, just in time to become Bai Luo Yin's soft cushion. Bai Luo Yin realized that Gu Hai let him win. 177
Are you Addicted? The bell had rung, signaling the start of class, everyone started to head to their own classes, running while turning their heads and applauding at the same time. During the short moment that they fell down, Gu Hai's hand happened to press on Bai Luo Yin's butt. When everyone had left, all of a sudden his hand started to move indecently, instead of putting it down, he intentionally pinched it several times. "It's quite flexible." Gu Hai amusingly gazed at the charming face inches away from him. Bai Luo Yin used two fingers to poke at Gu Hai's waist, his face wearing an evil smile, he knew that Gu Hai was injured in his waist. Gu hai immediately tightened his waist, he don't know why is it when other people touch this part, it will hurt excruciatingly, yet when Bai Luo Yin touch it, he only felt a tingling sensation. This tingling sensation ran through all over his whole body, to such an extent that when Gu Hai squinted his eyes to look at Bai Luo Yin, he suddenly felt that his smile was very captivating. "You're still not going? Class is starting!" Bai Luo Yin stood up from Gu Hai's body, using his foot to kick at him once. Gu Hai frowned his eyebrows into a knot, pretending to be in a tremendous pain. "I can't get up, I've hit the back of my head." Bai Luo Yin speculated darkly in his mind. Since when hitting the back of your head can hinder you from standing up? Acting shamelessly on purpose, aren't you? Although he had this thought in his mind, but he really looked at the person lying on the ice-cold ground, and still, he truly felt a little bit sorry for Gu Hai. He extended his hand to grasp at Gu Hai's hand. Gu Hai had already stood up before he managed to use any force. After getting up, Gu Hai was still unwilling to let go of his hand, instead he incessantly guided their hands across his shoulders. "Dust off the dirt from me, I can't reach it." "Hey, don't take advantage of somebody else's weakness!" Bai Luo Yin exerted a great deal of effort, insisting on releasing his hand. Gu Hai felt aggrieved, then shamelessly rubbed against him. "Clearly I acted as your cushion on the ground, you don't even feel guilty a little bit? Yeah, I deserve it right, I deserve to suffer the fall."
178
你丫上瘾了? When Bai Luo Yin caught a sight of Gu Hai's current appearance, he really wanted to give him a couple of kicks. However, he doesn't understand why his hands and feet are very hard to control today. "Quick, get inside!" Bai Luo Yin pushed Gu Hai forward with one hand, casually dusting the dirt off him for a few times. At this very moment, if someone were to pour a bucket of water into the center of his heart, it would definitely bloom into a bouquet of flowers. _________________________ [1] 'shouting mountain and roaring sea' (山呼海啸) describes something with a grand and imposing manner.

Gu Hai brought Bai Luo Yin back to his home, while Bai Han Qi was chatting with other people at the entrance of an alley. When he saw Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin had already came back, he immediately picked up his folding stool, there was a wrinkle on the corner of his eyes because of his smile. "Da Hai ah, just eat dinner here. Don't go." Bai Luo Yin glanced at Bai Han Qi, obviously intending to drop a hint at him, why would you let him eat here? He's not a person who can comprehend words of courtesy, if you ask him to eat here then he will definitely eat here. "That's great! Uncle is so kind to let me eat here, it would be impolite of me to go." Sure enough, it turns out this way! Bai Luo Yin furrowed his eyebrows, he looked at Bai Han Qi with eyes full of hostility. "Today, Aunt Zou is cooking for us, we won't treat him shabbily." "No need to let Aunt Zou cook today, it's your turn!" Bai Han Qi just stood there stunned for 15 minutes, is he actually praising me or cursing me? When Gu Hai entered the kitchen, Aunt Zou was in the middle of making the noodle dough, thick and big rolling pin rolled back and forth on the dough's surface, after the dough was folded evenly into several layers, dang dang dang..... neat and concentrated chopping skills, between the dough is sliced well, the thickness is the same, the length is similar, basically it was unable to tell if the noodles was made by hands, because it was completely like it was made by a machine. "Aunt Zou, your chopping skill is really amazing, how long have you been practicing?" Aunt Zou just smiled gently, "Does this even need to be practiced? If you've been cooking for more than 20 years, anyone would be able to do this." "Do you need my help?" "No need, just go to your room and do your homework, I will be done with this soon." 180
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai saw there were two cucumbers on the chopping board, he took a bite and it was really crisp, he couldn't help but to say a few words of praises. "Aunt Zou, where did you buy this cucumber? The taste is really great." "These are the cucumbers we planted at our home, later when we go back you could pick one bag, bring them home and give them to your parents. Our cucumbers are not sprayed with pesticide, you can eat them without worries." "Okay, when we go back, I'll go to your home to pick some!" Between talking and laughing, Aunt Zou had already cut the cucumbers nicely, they were cut perfectly straight, laying on the plate like small door curtains; beside that, there were fried diced meat in soy sauce, the scent of the sauce was really rich, the diced meat was fresh and tender. On one side, the amount of vegetables were also, there were soya beans, Chinese toona, radishes..... all together they made a captivating view, just by looking at it would make people to feel greedy and craving for it. "Aunt, do you want me to taste it first in your place?" "Have you finished or not?" Gu Hai hadn't even stretched out his chopstick towards the noodles yet, when he heard someone's angry rebuke from the doorway, "Go out and work! You dare to eat without doing anything?" When Aunt Zou saw Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai's figures from behind, she couldn't help but to wonder, these two boys, why are they so achingly sweet and lovely? During dinner, Gu Hai drank a bottle of beer, then he ate while chatting happily with Grandma Bai. This time Grandma Bai found a best friend, even after the dinner had finished she still doesn't want to let Gu Hai go, she pointed towards the yard and said to Gu Hai happily: "This piece of land is filled with the crops that comrade Liu Shao Qi [1] guides us to plant..." Gu Hai: "....." Bai Luo Yin pulled over Grandma Bai's hand, persuaded her kindly, "Grandma, you should wash your feet. Come on, let's go back to room." Taking advantage of the gap when Bai Luo Yin went out to take the cloth for wiping his Grandmother's feet, Gu Hai grabbed him. "I know what your grandmother means, she doesn't want me to go back." Bai Luo Yin patted Gu Hai's shoulder firmly. "You think too much!"
181
Are you Addicted? After strolling two laps around the yard, Gu Hai went to the doorway of Grandma Bai's room, then he quietly watching the dim light inside. Don't know how long this bulb has been used, the brightness is even less than a phone screen's light. However, when Gu Hai looked at the light bulb, and looked at the people under the light, he suddenly felt that his heart was filled to the brim with warmth. This is home. Night time at home shouldn't be as bright as the daytime, it should be dim and silent, where the silhouettes of your dearest people are constantly lengthening and shortening on the wall. Grandpa Bai drank a glass of white wine, and he fell asleep long ago, his snores drifted faintly into Gu Hai's ears. Grandma Bai was still mumbling endlessly, sitting in front of her grandson who was patiently wiping her feet. Sometimes, Gu Hai felt that Bai Luo Yin is really cold, but there are times when he felt that Bai Luo Yin is especially full of warmth. He can be warm and cold towards people, it's so clear. When he's being cold, you'll think that he is completely incompatible with the sunlight on top of your head. Nevertheless, when he's being warm, even just for once in a while, no matter how much snow accumulates inside your heart, it will melt in a flash. This kind of person, will grab your heart at all times. When you move forward, he'll retreat, and when you move backward he'll turn his head and expect you to come, it causes you to you lose your mind. Even if he and you were of the same gender, and both of you are only friends, but when he isn't here, your life simply becomes incomplete. Except drug, Gu Hai couldn't think any other word to describe Bai Luo Yin. When Bai Luo Yin came out from his grandmother's room, his surroundings had already quieted down, he only heard dog's barks occasionally, he didn't know when Aunt Zou went back. The courtyard was very neatly divided, inside the bathroom built with plastic covering was the tired posture of Bai Han Qi, who was in the middle of washing the clothes, Bai Luo Yin went back to his own room. He didn't know who turned on the lights in his room, Bai Luo Yin barely stepped his foot inside when he was struck speechless. Gu Hai had already taken his shoes off, laying on his bed, resting his head on his pillow, covered with his quilt, and he didn't feel awkward even for a bit. "You better scram back quickly!" Bai Luo Yin kicked Gu Hai. Gu Hai's voice sounded like he was mumbling, but when he opened one of his eyes, it shined brightly. "I am drunk!" 182
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin's face darkened, "Cut your crap! You only drink one bottle, who are you fooling? Quick get up!" "I can't get up!" "Don't be foolish!" Bai Luo Yin leaned over to pull Gu Hai up, but Gu Hai forcefully pulled him to the bed, the bed plank gave a creaking sound, Gu Hai used both of his hands to hug Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, both of his legs desperately pressed Bai Luo Yin down. Gu Hai's eyes were similar to an intoxicated snake, wriggling and crawling on Bai Luo Yin's body, both were entangled together and Gu Hai was reluctant to leave Bai Luo Yin's body, causing the other person to shiver and not letting them to escape easily. Bai Luo Yin's body was somewhat stiff. Gu Hai captured Bai Luo Yin's hesitant eyes, firmly grabbed on Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, and clashed his teeth together. "I might be....... really drunk." _________________________ [1] Liu Shao Qi (1898-1969) is a Chinese communist leader and a martyr of the Cultural Revolution.

Chapter 50: Why does it hit him unexpectedly? Translator: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tonight is a full moon, the lamps were already turned off, yet everything inside the room was still clear. Two people were squeezed together in the bed, Gu Hai was sleeping nearby the window, when he inclined his head, he could directly see the moon hanging from the treetops. "The moon festival is only two days away." Bai Luo Yin reminisced. Gu Hai casted a glance towards Bai Luo Yin, his face was half-bright and half-dark, the moonlight softened the curves of his face. On normal days, his eyes are always cold and sharp, at this moment, they finally rested and the speed of his blinks had started to slow down, he often fixed his eyes on a corner, watching quietly. "Why does the homeroom teacher look for you today?" "How does your family celebrate the moon festival?" "..." The two questions, which were asked at the same time, caused the atmosphere of the room to become slightly awkward. Gu Hai was waiting for Bai Luo Yin's reply while plotting an answer in his mind, he realized that it is quite difficult to hide the truth of his status like this. There cannot be a more suitable phrase for his current predicament than 'tell a lie once and you will tell countless more lies to cover the first one'. He feared that he can't stop the day where Bai Luo Yin spotted a clue regarding this matter, and when that moment comes, the aftermath will definitely become more serious. Moreover, it was impossible for him to hide in this place all his life. Even if he doesn't return and find Gu Wei Ting, Gu Wei Ting do everything possible to get him back. If he doesn't resist, then his identity will be exposed right away; if he fight back, it will become the talk of the town and his identity will be completely revealed. Therefore, no matter which path he walked, they are all dead ends. He must win Bai Luo Yin's trust as soon as possible, build an indestructible and revolutionary friendship with him, after that, he will slowly reveal the truth to him. 184
你丫上瘾了? "Our family had never celebrated moon festival, the most we did was buying one kilogram of moon cake." Bai Luo Yin peeked at Gu Hai from the corner of his eyes, he noticed a special kind of aura from him, it is not the kind of aura that can be emitted by a person from a poor and ordinary family. Gu Hai shifted to one side and propped his hand behind the back of his head, looking at Bai Luo Yin in interest. "How about your family?" Bai Luo Yin smiled faintly, "We eat moon cakes of course." Gu Hai caught the sight of Bai Luo Yin's smile and guessed that he definitely like to eat moon cakes. "What kind of moon cake do you like to eat?" "The one stuffed with egg yolk and lotus seed paste." "Why do you like to eat that kind of filling?" Gu Hai expressed his confusion, "It's not sweet and also not salty, I'm bored eating those." Bai Luo Yin inclined his gaze towards Gu Hai, "So, what kind of moon cake do you like? Tell me." "The one stuffed with ribbonfish." "Your family bought a ribbonfish-stuffed one?" Bai Luo Yin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Why don't you say that you'd even eat the one stuffed with sheep tail?" "The one stuffed with sheep tail smelled very rank." Bai Luo Yin couldn't help but to burst in laughter, the moonlight illuminated his smile, intoxicating the heart of a certain person. "Bai Luo Yin." "Hm?" Bai Luo Yin turned his head to look at Gu Hai Gu Hai had his back to the moon, the contours of his eyes reflected the increasingly dark and deep background. "Actually, I'm not like this." Bai Luo Yin replied neutrally, "Then, what kind of person are you?" "I'm a very honest and serious person." However, that was before I met you, Gu Hai forgot to add these words. 185
Are you Addicted? "Gu Hai, from now on, there is no need to say this kind of words anymore, even if you tell me that you are a woman, I'll probably believe you." "..." After taking a few deep breaths, Gu Hai finally digested these words. He saw that Bai Luo Yin had already turned his back, he pondered, I won't let him go to sleep so easily, besides he hasn't answered the most important question. "Actually, why does the teacher look for you today?" Bai Luo Yin slightly turned his body around, "Do you stay here today just for the sake of asking me about this thing?" "It's not like that, I'm only afraid that if you suppress those feelings inside your heart, it would hurt you." An inexplicable feeling rose from Bai Luo Yin's heart, for a time, he was suspicious of Gu Hai's intention towards him. When you have a conflict with him, he will give you a very hard time, as if he has accumulated his hatred for you for several lifetimes; however, when he is kind to you, he is unreasonably kind, as if he was indebted to you in the previous life... Regarding the matter today, Bai Luo Yin thought that he had concealed his feelings very well, so that other people can't discover it, Bai Han Qi doesn't suspect either, yet Gu Hai can see through him. There are times when Bai Luo Yin felt that Gu Hai resembled an insane person, but when facing this insane person, it's inevitable that there will be a kind of indescribable trust. Supposed if that 'wine in, truth out' night [1] was counted as a coincidence, then his impulse to pour out his heart right now won't be able to deceive people anymore. Regardless of his previous doubts, those are currently unimportant, he only needs a close and understanding friend. "I've told you that my mom remarried, right?" Gu Hai nodded his head, "Yeah, you've mentioned before." "Today that man came to find me, inviting me to move in and live with them." "Did you agree?" Bai Luo Yin asked a rhetorical question, "Do you really think that I'll agree?" You really deserve to be called my bro!... Gu Hai secretly expressed his approval, both of them have the same kind of bitter experience, they ought to share a common hatred for the enemy.
186
你丫上瘾了? "The thing that irks me the most is his manner when he was talking to me, he compared me with his son, boasted about his son excessively, and then use it to contrast with how shortsighted thinking my thinking is. Do you know? I loathe that kind of person the most, talking pretentiously, as if all the people in this world is inferior to him and they must listen to his orders." Fuck... Gu Hai pulled his bed sheet down, these words truly strike the center of his heart. "I'm also annoyed by that type of person, you don't need to heed him." Bai Luo Yin's voice was dry, "I just can't accept the way he speaks." "If you really can't accept it, then you can simply curse him, curse his son to get hit by a car and become crippled tomorrow!" Then a loud sound of crashing could be heard, something had fallen down from the wall and directly plunged onto Gu Hai's foot. "Ouch, hey, what's going on?" Bai Luo Yin hastily turned on the lamp. The old wall clock that had been hung on the wall for more than thirty years fell down for no reason today. It fell off suddenly and directly hit Gu Hai's left foot without any mercy. If it were not because of Gu Hai's healthy body, this fifteen kilogram clock would have really crippled his foot. Gu Hai furrowed his eyebrows, "Did you do it on purpose? Why does it fall off when I've just arrived to sleep here?" Bai Luo Yin laughed until he couldn't keep his mouth closed, what general, what stepfather, throw the entire Nyima country[2] behind your head, nothing can beat the bad luck that Gu Hai had. Say, this old clock has been hung for more than thirty years, why does it hit him unexpectedly? _________________________ [1] 'wine in, truth out' night refers to chapter 29, the night where Bai Luo Yin got really drunk on the street stall and spilled his heart out to Gu Hai, the one where Gu Hai piggybacked him home. [2] Nyima is the name of a county in central Tibet.

The next few days were a blessing in disguise for Gu Hai. The old clock that hit his leg didn't only cause it to bruise heavily but also wounded his kneecap, he was unable to bend his knee so he couldn't even walk. To alleviate his suffering, on behalf of his whole family, Bai Luo Yin was forced to wait for Gu Hai, he had to cycle the bike for him before and after school, brought him to eat breakfast, he has to support Gu Hai whenever they're walking. The only thing missing was Bai Luo Yin helping Gu Hai to hold his thing when he went to the bathroom. After Gu Hai leg was hurt, he became even more shameless. Every night, he would eat dinner for free at Bai Luo Yin's house, after he finished eating he would shamelessly hang around until the sky darkened, and then with the reason that he was unable to move freely, he would stay overnight there, his manner was just the same as blackmailing Bai family. Moreover, Bai Luo Yin discovered one of Gu Hai's bad habit. He really loves to hug people. Every night when they were sleeping and when Bai Luo Yin was in a daze, he would always feel an arm stretching towards him, embracing his entire body. Because his bed was narrow, and there were not much space to move around, Bai Luo Yin didn't take it to his heart. However, when they were riding a bike together, Gu Hai would still do this bad habit of him, he would start to hug Bai Luo Yin with his arms without any reason. Bai Luo Yin was really irritated because of this thing, you say you are an adult, yet why are you going around and hugging other people? So today, before he went on the bike, Bai Luo Yin specially emphasized one sentence. "I'm telling you, don't hug me!" Gu Hai met Bai Luo Yin's gaze full of meaning, why won't you let me hug you? Why do you even need to ask this kind of thing?! Bai Luo Yin found out that Gu Hai always make other people to lose their patience and burn with anger, nine out of ten words that he said would make no sense! 188
你丫上瘾了? Lastly, Bai Luo Yin only replied him with two words. "It's disgusting!" In the past, if Gu Hai saw two guys hugging each other, Gu Hai would feel uncomfortable and annoyed too. But everything has an exception, and Bai Luo Yin is that exception. It's not Bai Luo Yin's waist that Gu Hai is infatuated with, but rather it's the silent endurance, the awkwardness, and his shyness to talk about it.... The first half of the journey was quite peaceful, after turned on the corner, Gu Hai extended his hand once again, it's just that this time he didn't hug Bai Luo Yin, but he placed his hands inside Bai Luo Yin's jacket instead. His hand directly came into contact with Bai Luo Yin's smooth back. Bai Luo Yin's hair from his head to toe suddenly stood up. It was as if his seat had an electric switch below it. "What are you doing?" Finally, Bai Luo Yin snarled angrily towards Gu Hai. Gu Hai used his palm to rub Bai Luo Yin's back, followed by the back of his hands. Bit by bit, he rubbed slowly as if he intentionally want to wear down Bai Luo Yin's determination. "I'm borrowing your body heat to warm my hands just a bit!" Bai Luo Yin's face filled with anger completely, your hands are even warmer than my body, who are you warming for? I will bear with you for a few more days, just wait until your legs have recovered completely and see how I will get a revenge on you! You bastard! ....... "Gu Hai, there's someone looking for you outside." Gu Hai turned his head to give a quick look at Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin immediately waved his hand, "I'm not going to help you, whoever wants to help then he can help you." Gu Hai jumped on one foot towards the door, and once he was out from Bai Luo Yin's sight, he immediately walked normally, it might be said that the soles of his feet was swift as the wind, he walked boldly and bravely. When he saw it, he considered himself lucky because Bai Luo Yin didn't came with him. Bodyguard Sun saw Gu Hai, and his heart instantly eased up, he smiled then walked towards Gu Hai, patted him on his shoulder and teased him: "My young master, I finally found you." 189
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai's face immediately fell. "What are you doing here?" "Something came up so I need to find you, let's talk on the car." A deep annoyance was visible between Gu Hai's eyebrows. "If you have something to say, then say it right here. I have no time to follow you." Bodyguard Sun submissively stood in front of Gu Hai, "The problem is the one who wants to talk you isn't me!" The blue veins on Gu Hai's forehead jumped out, "Then, you can just go back." After he finished his words, he immediately turned back. "The commander said, if I couldn't bring you, I can't go back." Gu Hai's steps stopped instantly, the corner of his eyes caught a glimpse of the heroic military vehicle, furthermore Bodyguard Sun was talking in a bureaucratic tone and with the facial expression of a soldier. When he directed his gaze upstairs, the window on the third floor was open, if Bai Luo Yin were to come out from the classroom, he would be able to see him in this corner. "Let's go." Gu Hai went inside the car with a blank expression.

Chapter 52: Xiao Hai's Argument with Jiang Yuan. YAY another chapter! This is one short chapter. And well, some people said to me in the previous chapters, why is some chapters really short? And they want it to be longer. It's not that we made it short, we're just a translator and we didn't change anything from the original story. ;w; We translated it as close as we could to the original version. Well enough with my rambles and enjoy. ^^

"What do you want to drink?" Jiang Yuan looked towards Gu Hai while smiling. Gu Hai smugly moved his chin towards the waiter, implying that she could just go. "I don't want to drink anything, if you have something to say then just say it right now." "It's like this, I've discussed this with your dad already...." "If you want me to go back then you don't need to say it." Gu Hai interrupted Jiang Yuan's words, his attitude was unyielding, "I can't live together with both of you." "It's not like that...." Jiang Yuan forced a smile, "You are mistaken, we didn't even think to force you to live together with us. Our idea is like this: you can go back to your previous home, then your dad and I will move out, this way you don't have to wander alone by yourself. Living outside is good, but it won't be as good as your own home, right? Your mother had lived in that house for so many years as well, I believe that you definitely have a deep affection towards that house--" "When will I go back, how will I go back, does it have anything to do with you?" Jiang Yuan only looked at Gu Hai quietly for a long time. "I realized, you're very similar with my son." And then, she suddenly laughed so heartily, attracting glances from the people around them. "Both of you can really render other people speechless.... Haha..." Gu Hai didn't have any expression on his face, he simply glared coldly at Jiang Yuan, until she withdrew her laugh, she began to realize that her joke wasn't funny. The thing that Gu Hai hates most is when Gu Wei Ting or Jiang Yuan mentioned about 191
Are you Addicted? another family member in front of him, forcibly lashing upon his mind that his family has been broken since long time ago. "Don't misunderstand, I.... hey... I found out that when I look at you, I don't know what to say. My relationship with my son is also like that, no matter what I say, he always has that hostile attitude. It seems that I lack interaction with the people of your generation, I will learn well, i will try to understand...." "Are you done yet?" "Eh?" Jiang Yuan's words were interrupted again. Gu Hai stood up, "If you're already finished, then I'm going back." "No, please wait." Jiang Yuan stood up, "Even if you don't think of me as your mother, I have already treated you as my son. I hope you can come home soon, if you think I'm an eyesore to you, I can move out temporarily, I'll wait until you finish your college entrance exam, have your own new life, then I will move back." "You're ridiculous." Gu Hai turned his head, "If you're really sincere about this, then why must you marry my dad?" Jiang Yuan was speechless. Gu Hai sneered, then walked out with big strides. ........ It's 8 o'clock at night when Gu Hai was on his way to Tian Jin. He barely came out from the south station entrance, when suddenly he was embraced tightly, Jin Lu Lu hugged both of Gu Hai's sides, there was a hint of complain in her voice, "You've finally realized to come over and see me?" Gu Hai handed an exquisite box of moon cake to Jin Lu Lu, "Tomorrow is the MidAutumn festival, let's celebrate it together." When Jin Lu Lu heard these words, God knows how touched she was in her heart. When Gu Hai was able to say these kind of words, it proved that she had already become Gu Hai's most important person. "Oh right, I bought a couple of new clothes for you, you can change to it later when we go back tonight, you see what are you wearing right now?" Jin Lu Lu said while pulling a loose thread from Gu Hai's collar. It's really rare to see, but this time Gu Hai didn't refuse Jin Lu Lu, maybe it's because they were at the place a hundred kilometers away, he didn't have to worry that his identity would be exposed. When Gu Hai changed his clothes into international 192
你丫上瘾了? branded ones, his tall and slender figure attracted a lot of attentions. When he walked on the streets he would always attract pairs of eyes, following him in interest, causing Jin Lu Lu to curl her lips from time to time. "We talked about this already, when you go back to Beijing, you can wear those raglike clothes, only when you came to see me you will wear these clothes." Gu Hai sighed heavily, after going back to Beijing, even if you force me to wear it, I won't wear it. Jin Lu Lu was walking while staring at Gu Hai incessantly, until Gu Hai's eyes met hers. "What are you looking at?" Jin Lu Lu puckered up her lips in a smile, "I noticed that you changed back already." Gu Hai's solemn eyes shot a glance at Jin Lu Lu, "What do you mean by change back?" "Recently, when I went to your place and lived with you for three days, I felt like you were being possessed, you would smile to me from time to time, you would also say some pleasant words to me occasionally, you never did something like that before. However, this time when you come here, you seem like you're back to normal, not so gentle anymore, you didn't talk much too, as if you're so indifferent to everything...." "So, you mean I wasn't good to you before?" "No no no... On the contrary, I really like it when you're like this, it gives me more sense of security." Gu Hai suddenly stood still, he turned his head towards Jin Lu Lu, and asked her inexplicably, "Do you think I'm a decent and serious person?" A snort could be heard, Jin Lu Lu laughed. "What a nonsense... Of course you are. Otherwise, why would I be together with you?" "......"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Ferris wheel escalated gradually to the peak as the beautiful night view of Tianjin became visible to their eyes. Inside the couple cabin, there were only Gu Hai and Jin Lu Lu. Jin Lu Lu linked her arms with Gu Hai while pointing at the night sky on the east, "Look, the full moon tonight is really round." But for Gu Hai, the full moon will never be round anymore. In his heart, there will always be a gap, every time when it is the family reunion festival time of the year, it will be the most difficult time for him. Originally, he had wanted to have a dinner at Bai Luo Yin's place, but Jiang Yuan's appearance yesterday made him gave up the idea. He found out that whenever he is in a bad mood, the person he don't want to see the most is Bai Luo Yin. Maybe it's because he's a little bit too carried away by happiness these days, so he couldn't imagine himself visiting Bai Luo Yin's place with sullen face. Forget it, just get over with these two days! It was past 11 PM, the pedestrians were scattered on the streets, they were mostly couples, it was very difficult to wait until holiday came, it'll be very tiring. Jin Lu Lu pulled Gu Hai to enter the stores one by one, tirelessly asking the shop assistant about the price, holding two different things to compare. Occasionally she would ask for Gu Hai's opinion, and Gu Hai would always say that everything is good. "There is lingerie shop in front, accompany me to see it." Gu Hai was holding his cigarette on the corner of his mouth, when he heard Jin Lu Lu, he firmly inhaled his cigarette, then he exhaled the smoke in front of Jin Lu Lu's face. "Do you still need to wear lingerie? It's all flat....." Jin Lu Lu relentlessly pounded Gu Hai's chest for a few times with anger, "You're too awful!" 194
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai simply laughed without a word. Jin Lu Lu saw Gu Hai's face behind the smoke screen, it was somewhat between real and unreal, then she was suddenly crazy about him, for a moment she didn't know what to say, her heart felt sweet yet sour, she was moved beyond words, because this person belongs to herself alone. Jin Lu Lu went inside by herself, while Gu Hai just stood on the roadside while smoking. Next to the lingerie store, there was a dessert store, during this time, this business was very prosperous. Every customer that came out from the store would carry an elegant package of moon cake box. There were all kinds of moon cake with different fillings placed inside the window showcase, there were sweet bean paste, jujube paste, sausages, fruits...... and also, lotus seed paste with egg yolk. Gu Hai extinguished his cigarette, he gazed quietly at the number of moon cakes on the window showcase as it slowly decreased. ....... After turning the lights off before sleeping, Bai Han Qi went inside Bai Luo Yin's room. "Why Da Hai didn't come over today?" Bai Luo Yin pulled up his blanket, and gave an indifferent expression. "How do I know? It's good that he didn't come, when he's here I couldn't sleep well." Bai Han Qi sat on his bed while staring at Bai Luo Yin, "You didn't ask him? I saw that you came back here with his bike, did anything happen to him?" "He's already an adult, what bad thing could possibly happen to him?" "I'm telling you, this kid, Da Hai is not bad, don't pick on him too much. He is really happy to eat here, to live here, he sincerely wanted to be brothers with you [1], don't drive him off all the time!" "When did I drive him off?" Bai Luo Yin twisted his eyebrows, giving an impatient look, "He simply left without saying anything, I even waited for him in the classroom for a long time, but I didn't see him at all, I was being kind enough to bring back his schoolbag with me, and I brought back his bike too, yet it is still my fault?" Bai Han Qi glanced anxiously at his precious son, his tone immediately changed from lecturing to coaxing."Okay okay okay, what I said was wrong, hurry up and sleep, it's very difficult to have a holiday, no need to get up early tomorrow." Bai Han Qi turned the lights off for Bai Luo Yin, then closed the door gently.
195
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin's surrounding became dim, there was a large spot where the moonlight shone, but Bai Luo Yin's mood was dark. He's agitated without any reason! There was nothing like excitement and expectation before holiday in his heart, he was completely confused, his brain was like a messy rope, extending down to his throat, stifling and suppressing his entire chest. That entire night, Bai Luo Yin couldn't sleep well. There was no one beside him. Although it wasn't any more spacious than before, he still had to restrict his movement when he turned. Occasionally, he would stretch his arms out but immediately pulled them back. By the time he realized that no one was beside him, it was almost daybreak. Early in the morning, Aunt Zou came over while carrying a food basket. "Today, we're going to have a nice dinner, where is Da Hai? Hurry and call him to come over here! Didn't he always want to help me? I can really use his help this time." Bai Luo Yin came out with disheveled hair and a dirty face, he drowsily replied to her. "He's not here." After he said that, he walked towards the faucet while carrying his toothbrush and mug. It's already autumn, the water had turned very cold, when he rinsed his mouth, the water would freeze his teeth until it ached. Aunt Zou was thinking on one side, "Say, why this kid hasn't come over lately? I bought a lot of dish, last time he told me that his favorite food is diced chicken in soybean sauce, I especially slaughtered a chicken for him to eat!" Gu Hai had a long dream that night. First, he had a dream about his mother, she was knitting a sweater for him beside a lotus pond. She was almost finished with the sweater, when it suddenly fell to the pond. Gu Hai jumped into the water, he was hoping he could get them out, only to find that his legs was stuck on the mud, it's cold! Really cold! Gu Hai couldn't climb up, he also couldn't shout for help. Then, Bai Luo Yin appeared out of nowhere, he kept shouting towards Gu Hai: Grab my hand, grab my hand...... slowly, until he finally drifted ashore. When he woke up, Jin Lu Lu was on the phone. Gu Hai found out, his hand and Jin Lu Lu's hand was intertwined. 196
你丫上瘾了? "Dad, I won't go back today, I have something to do, yes, I really have something to do, during the Mid-autumn Festival last year, weren't you on your business trip too? You're allowed to go on business trip, but you wouldn't allow me to wander around? How can..... I'm not running around crazily...." While waiting for Jin Lu Lu to hang up her phone, Gu Hai had already went down from the bed. "You've woke up?" Jin Lu Lu smiled to Gu Hai, "My dad asked me to go back just now, I didn't agree with him." "Just go back, then I'll go see my aunt." "No!" Jin Lu Lu immediately stood up and complained, "We agreed that we would celebrate this festival together today, but you still want to rush off and run away?! I'll tell you this, no one can even think about separating us today, I just want to be together with you." The two of them went for a lunch, and then they went to watch a movie. When the movie had finished, Gu Hai said that he wanted to go to the toilet. After she waited for 10 minutes, Gu Hai hasn't come out yet. Jin Lu Lu was anxious, she almost went inside the toilet to find him. Then her phone rang, it was from an unknown number. "Lu Lu, just catch a taxi and go home! I'm going back to Beijing." "You.... You tricked me!" Jin Lu Lu yelled inside the empty theatre "You are not human!" "I need to go back and see my mother. I don't want her to be alone." Jin Lu Lu held out for a few seconds, before her hands dropped limply. ........ Bai Luo Yin put one rolled pork meat on his grandmother's bowl, "Grandma, have one more." Grandma Bai had a small bite, her few remaining teeth was chewing carefully, the sauce flowed from the gap between her teeth to the outside her mouth, Bai Luo Yin picked up a handkerchief to wipe his grandmother's mouth. "￥@%#@%....huh?" Grandma Bai said a lot of words, but Bai Luo Yin couldn't understand anything. "Mom... you have to swallow your food first then speak, you couldn't even speak well in the first place...." Bai Han Qi complained. 197
Are you Addicted? Grandma Bai glared at Bai Han Qi, she quickly chewed everything on her mouth, swallowed it, then urgently looked at Bai Luo Yin to ask him, "What about Xiao Yang? Xiao Yang?[2]" "Xiao Yang?" Bai Luo Yin paused, "Grandma, our family hadn't raised a sheep for so many years already?!" "No.... " Grandma Bai's clumsy lips made her words became even more jumbled, "Just.... Just.... Water.... Big water....." Bai Han Qi took a glass of water and handed it to Grandma Bai, "Mom, do you want to drink?"Grandma Bai shook her head, she was so anxious that the corner of her eyes had creased. "Who was his name..... Da Ge.... Da He...." Bai Luo Yin understood it already, "Grandma, do you mean to say Gu Hai?" "Hn... Hn..." Grandma Bai couldn't help but to nod. Bai Luo Yin poked his chopstick on his bowl, he snorted in his mind, he only freeloads in this house to eat, right? He only didn't come for one day, right? Why is everyone so concerned about him? Past 8 PM, the moon was perfectly round, Bai Luo Yin carried a box of moon cake, and knocked on the house next door where an old married couple lived. An old man puffed hardly while coming out to open the door, when he saw Bai Luo Yin, he immediately smiled. "Granduncle, I came here to bring some moon cakes for you." The grandpa was so happy that he didn't know how to convey his feelings, "Our Yin Zi can really take care other people ah! You still remember to visit granduncle, quick quick, come inside and sit for a while." "It's already this late, I'm not going inside, I still have to deliver my friend's bike." "What bike?" "Deliver this bike, did you forget? Last time, my classmate went out from your house with this bike." The old man was staring hardly at the bike for quite a moment, then he suddenly remembered, he pointed to the bike and said loudly, "Is it that fool?" "......." Bai Luo Yin was momentarily shocked, he didn't even know whether it was said in a joking manner or detesting manner. 198
你丫上瘾了? "Yes, it's exactly that fool!" _________________________ [1] 'He sincerely wanted to be your brother': the term 'brother' implies a good friendship between guys, not brother as in blood siblings. [2] Xiao Yang (尿羊) means little lamb or sheep. In this chapter, Grandma Bai was actually referring to Xiao Yang (尿洋), which has similar pronunciation and tone to 尿羊. She wanted to say 尿海 (Xiao Hai, 'Hai' means 'sea') but can only remember 尿洋 (Xiao Yang, 'Yang' means 'ocean') instead.

Chapter 54: I just want to be with you. Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eleven o'clock at night, after Bai Han Qi finished taking a shower, with a towel hanging on his shoulder and the water still dripping, he went inside Bai Luo Yin's room. "When you go to sleep, don't forget to lock the courtyard door." Bai Luo Yin nodded, his eyes were fixed on his computer screen. Bai Han Qi went inside his room. Suddenly, Bai Luo Yin slammed his hand at the keyboard, and glared at his computer screen in anger. Dead again! What happened today, when I played the game I either die or the game lags, I'm not playing anymore! Bai Luo Yin stood up, kicked his stool away and went out. The moon was so beautiful, it's so round and bright, when Bai Luo Yin glanced at it, he felt like spitting on it. Fuck, who told you to be so round tonight! [1] The door was still wide open, Bai Luo Yin picked up the rusty lock, it felt so cold, causing his hand to freeze when he held it. The door was barely shut close when suddenly, a large force pushed it open again. "Don't lock the door." Suddenly, a face appeared at his door and caused Bai Luo Yin to freeze in place. Gu Hai just appeared out of nowhere, his face was travel-worn and weary [2]. The moment he saw Bai Luo Yin, he simply pulled him into a tight embrace without saying anything. Bai Luo Yin smelled the scent of exhaustion from Gu Hai's body. His heart was beating fast and violently, it made Bai Luo Yin's heartbeat become unsteady too. When Gu Hai hugged Bai Luo Yin, he felt that his heart is now complete. After he visited his late mother's grave, Gu Hai's mood became extremely depressed, that he almost jumped into the city moat [3]. On his way to Bai Luo Yin's house, he was running all the way, afraid that Bai Luo Yin had already locked the door, afraid that he won't be able to see Bai Luo Yin. At this very moment, only this place, only this person, who can make him feel like he isn't alone. 200
你丫上瘾了? After a long silence, Bai Luo Yin muttered, "I thought you've died outside!" Gu Hai heaved a long sigh of relief, "When I hear you mocking at me, it feels really good." Bai Luo Yin suppressed his urges to bear old grudges in his heart, how can he just forgive Gu Hai easily? When he saw Gu Hai holding him tightly, it was hard for him to push him away, so he mercilessly punched Gu Hai's weak spot in his waist, sending him flying one meter away. "Fuck off! You've had enough fun outside, and now you still want to disturb other people's sleep!" Gu Hai couldn't even catch his breath from the pain he felt, when he saw that Bai Luo Yin wanted to close the door again, he placed himself between the door, then stared at Bai Luo Yin with his dark eyes, "I'm not going anywhere tonight. I'm staying here." "You're staying here?" Bai Luo Yin snorted coldly, "If you're paying then I might consider letting you sleep in the pigsty." Gu Hai laughed straight away. Using a little bit of strength, he finally squeezed inside the door. He stroked the back of Bai Luo Yin's head and said with a persuasive tone, "Enough, enough. Don't be angry anymore. It's my fault, okay? I shouldn't have left withou saying anything and made you keep on worrying about me. It's already this late and you're still awake, waiting for me." Bai Luo Yin threw Gu Hai's hand away, pulling out two strands of his hair along with it, "Don't be such a disgusting person, can you? Who the fuck you said waited for you?!" "Then why didn't you lock the door? I remember those past two days when I stayed at your place, you would've locked it already by 9 PM." Bai Luo Yin's anger finally erupted and he even lifted his legs. Gu Hai couldn't care less, he firmly marched forward and pulled Bai Luo Yin into a tight embrace, they fit together perfectly, not even leaving any space between them. "Yinzi, don't be angry anymore, can you? I just came back from my mother's grave. My heart is in a mess. Can't you give in to me just this one time?" At last, Bai Luo Yin's stiff body gradually went lax and warm under Gu Hai's soft and deep voice. After they entered the room, Gu Hai placed a box on the table. "I bought a moon cake for you." Although Bai Luo Yin let Gu Hai inside, but his icy expression remained the same. "Just eat it by yourself." 201
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai opened the moon cake box, he said to Bai Luo Yin with seductive tone, "I specially ordered them to make it for you, you really don't want to try it?" "I don't care who you made it for, I said I don't want to eat it so....." When Bai Luo Yin turned his head, suddenly a huge piece of moon cake appeared before his eyes. It is as big as a whole pizza! There were four large words carved on top of the moon cake, egg yolk lotus paste, the moon cake was so full and round, rich and plump, the color was captivating, and there was a faint sweet fragrance coming out from the cover box. "I ran through few stores, and only this one store accepted my request, don't look down on this moon cake, it definitely has a high degree of difficulty! Normally speaking, it's really hard to make, even just with 4 egg yolks, the problem is that the mold is very hard to find), the crucial point is that the yolk filling is not easy to stick together, if you're not careful then it will fall apart. I can assure you that this moon cake has no less 12 egg yolks inside, I guarantee even if you just eat one you would feel full already." Gu Hai said it with a radiant delight [4], when Bai Luo Yin heard it, his heart shivered slightly. "Are you a fool? Isn't it enough that you only buy a few pieces? Why did you have to buy the big one?" "It's not the same." Gu Hai looked at Bai Luo Yin with a faint smile,"Our appetites are really big, and I wanted to eat one with you, so this is the most suitable size for us." Bai Luo Yin wore a scoffing expression, his eyes were like a fork, staring fiercely right at Gu Hai. Fortunately, Gu Hai understood Bai Luo Yin enough, he didn't wait for Bai Luo Yin to open his mouth on his own, and simply shoved one slice into Bai Luo Yin's mouth. Bai Luo Yin hesitated for a bit, but he still opened his mouth. He took one bite, it is so soft and spongy, he can taste all the light and different flavors, the taste is just like his feelings for the past two days. [5] _________________________ [1] Round full moon usually represent a completeness. When Bai Luo Yin cursed at the full moon, it can be said that he felt emptiness and loneliness in his heart. [2] 'his face was travel-worn and weary': the literal translation is supposed to be 'his face was covered in dust', however this phrase is actually a Chinese idiom which means 'weary after a long journey'.

你丫上瘾了? [3] 'he almost jumped into the city moat': moat is a deep, wide trench which is usually filled with water and surrounds the wall of a fortified place (e.g. castles, towns). In this chapter, the 'city moat' refers to the famous moat (6-m deep, 52-m wide) surrounding the Forbidden City in Beijing. [4] 'with a radiant delight': the literal translation is 'with dancing eyebrows and radiant face'. [5] 'just like his feelings for the past two days': refers to the two days when Gu Hai left without a word, resulting in Bai Luo Yin having these mixed feelings.

Chapter 55: Da Hai is Exposed. Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Below the cramped single bed, laid two identical shoes. Gu Hai was lying sideways. He saw Bai Luo Yin lying on his stomach, his arms and legs stretched out so comfortably, while his shirt was folded up, exposing his wide back. As the moonlight shone onto him, Bai Luo Yin's exposed skin was just like those bean curd that Aunt Zou made. It looked so soft and delicate, Gu Hai couldn't help but to reach his hand out to touch it, it was smooth and firm. Bai Luo Yin turned his head over. His eyes were half-closed and half-opened. His facial expression was indifferent. Gu Hai breathed, while stretching his hand out unconsciously. Bai Luo Yin seemed to realize what he was going to do, then he suddenly grabbed Gu Hai's hand. "Do you know why did I scold you today?" Okay. The judgment has finally begun. Gu Hai knew that Bai Luo Yin won't let go of this matter easily. "Because I didn't tell you where did I go these past two days?" Bai Luo Yin opened his eyes. They were like a dark flower, blooming silently at night. "It's because when you're feeling down, you didn't choose to come to me." It's a simple sentence, nevertheless, when Gu Hai heard it, his heart was overcome with an overwhelming [1] feeling. He didn't expect that Bai Luo Yin would be silently concerned about him, it's just the same as his feelings for Bai Luo Yin. Perhaps it is merely an emotion showing in the eyes, yet he can already see through the most hidden corner in the other person's heart. Perhaps it is only a smile, yet it can influence his mood for the whole day.... This kind of tacit understanding is almost as if it is innate. It doesn't have anything to do with the period of time, since the very beginning, it has already ignited like a flame. After he calmed his heart with much difficulty, Gu Hai said, "I'm afraid that it will affect your mood."
204
你丫上瘾了? "That is the main reason why I scolded you today," Bai Luo Yin furrowed his eyebrows, his hand lightly hit against the bed sheet, "You don't even see me as your friend at all. Let's just be strangers then!" Upon seeing Bai Luo Yin's aggrieved and indignant expression, both of Gu Hai's eyes lit up. He realized that, when Bai Luo Yin shows his true emotions, everything that he does is always lively and fascinating. "You are thinking too much. I don't see you as a stranger." "So, what is this?" Gu Hai really wanted to say, how can I willingly trouble you with my worries?! However, those words are far too contentious, how can he say it out loud! He's afraid that if he were to say it for real, that old clock will fall and hit him again. "Don't ask any more questions. From now on, if I have something I need to do, I will definitely tell you everything. Okay?" In spite of everything, Bai Luo Yin is not the kind of person who bears a grudge, so when he heard Gu Hai and didn't say a word, it means that he had agreed. Both of them stayed silent for a long time, suddenly Gu Hai felt that he can just be honest with Bai Luo Yin about his family background. Previously, he wouldn't dare to say it, because he couldn't see clearly what are Bai Luo Yin's feelings towards him. But after Bai Luo Yin uttered those words today, it really touched him, so he took the initiative to confess it himself. "Actually, I have something I hid from you." Bai Luo Yin snickered, "Do you want to say that you're actually not from this neighborhood and the house you're living in right now is actually rented?" "Eh....." Gu Hai was dumbfounded, his upper body went stiff, "How did you know?" "The old couple who lives besides your rented house, one is my granduncle, and one is my grandaunt." Gu Hai, "........" "Do you also want to tell me that, your family is actually very rich?" When he heard these words, Gu Hai felt cold sweat gliding along his back to his nape, he was truly dumbfounded. He didn't expect that when he disappeared for two days, all of a sudden everything about him has already been exposed. Even though he has planned everything carefully for a long time, but Bai Luo Yin is still able to see his flaws. What to do? Tonight won't be the last night for me to stay together with Bai Luo Yin, right? 205
Are you Addicted? Starting tomorrow, will he treat me as a stranger when we meet? "Don't you want to ask, how do I know?" Gu Hai said with bitter heart, his tone was somewhat weird, "How do you know?" "When school had just started, I saw your driver coming to pick you up on the school gate every day." Gu Hai, "......" "Besides that, when you just moved to the seat behind me, I saw you wearing a Breguet limited edition watch on your wrist." "......" Gu Hai suddenly dropped his head on his pillow, his heart was beating fast. If you already knew since that time, then you should've said something! I sold those phone, laptop, wristwatch at a low price, now who's going to compensate my loss? I endured all those hard days, now who's going to make it up for me? So all this time you were actually watching me act, if I didn't confess to you today, you would still treat me like a fool, right? Gu Hai gazed sharply at Bai Luo Yin, Bai Luo Yin only glanced at the dews outside, but he was clearly laughing at him in secret. "You want to laugh? Fine, I'll let you laugh!" Gu Hai pounced on Bai Luo Yin fiercely like a tiger, they were tossing around from one side to the other side without pausing, until both of them were finally out of breath, but Gu Hai still wouldn't come down from Bai Luo Yin's body. Bai Luo Yin laughed until his ears were red, but his attitude was still unyielding. "You still dare to treat me harshly? Say, who's tricking whom first?" "Okay, I admit it's my fault, I deliberately hid the truth from you before! But you also have a mistake, you covered up a criminal, it is absolutely intolerable. How about this, I won't argue with you anymore, but don't you drift apart from me because of this matter, and I'll call it even!" Bai Luo Yin didn't say a word. There was a little bit of uncertainty in Gu Hai's heart, he kicked Bai Luo Yin's leg, "You aren't really angry, right?" "Am I a person who likes to get angry?" Bai Luo Yin glanced at Gu Hai. "Why did you treat me like a girl? Those words that I said when I was drunk, are meant for their 206
你丫上瘾了? family only! I don't hate rich people, there are so many BMWs and Mercedes-Benz on the streets, do I have to smash them all one by one?" Gu Hai pinched Bai Luo Yin's face with force, "Why didn't you say it earlier?" Bai Luo Yin kicked Gu Hai to release himself from his hold, "You don't even give me any chance to say it!" ........ It felt really good when he no longer has burden in his heart, he doesn't have to live secretively anymore. The more Gu Hai think about it, the more excited he becomes, he turned to Bai Luo Yin to chat with him, willing to share his own joy. However, he discovered that Bai Luo Yin's eyes were already closed, his eyelashes were fluttering as if his eyeballs were moving up and down irregularly in front of him, seems like Bai Luo Yin will soon enter into a dream. But he was still laying on his stomach. Gu Hai patted Bai Luo Yin's back lightly and whispered softly, "Yin Zi, Yin Zi, don't fall asleep first, turn over here then sleep. With the way you're sleeping, it will constrict your heart." Bai Luo Yin was in a deep sleep, hearing Gu Hai's words he thought, of course I'm doing what's comfortable for me. Gu Hai couldn't bear to see it anymore, Gu Hai stretched his hand to grab Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, and at the same time he turned him over. But in less than two seconds, Bai Luo Yin turned his body back again, he really likes to sleep on his stomach. Gu Hai turned Bai Luo Yin over again, but Bai Luo Yin would turn back again.... Those two had been turning repeatedly like a pancake for ten minutes full. Then, Gu Hai became impatient, he thought, how can this kid be so disobedient like this? Fine, if the soft way is no good, I'll do it the hard way then. Hence, he cruelly spanked Bai Luo Yin's butt. Just how strong is Gu Hai's palm? What kind of average person can endure it?! Bai Luo Yin groaned, then suddenly opened his eyes, his eyeballs looked like a fierce tiger had jumped out from them, as if wanting to scratch Gu Hai's face. Gu Hai soon realized that he used too much his own strength, he hastily rubbed those two round meat very cautiously, coaxing him, "Okay, okay, I'm not going to hit you anymore. Go to sleep." Bai Luo Yin's eyes became more and more dim, and he fell asleep not long after that. 207
Are you Addicted? In the middle of the night, Gu Hai woke up because he was freezing, he glanced at the person beside him, he was sleeping so soundly! He saw all of the blankets were piled up on top of Bai Luo Yin's body, just like a half-meter tall snail shell. This kind of situation had happened several times in the past, Gu Hai discovered that Bai Luo Yin was usually listless and didn't speak very much, but on the contrary he is skilled in snatching blankets. Say, supposed if he was really cold, yet both of his legs were stuck out, while his blanket is on top of his back like a big ball, whether you're covered or not with blanket is just the same, so why do you have to you snatch everything? Just like the few nights before, Gu Hai spread the blanket, covered Bai Luo Yin well, and then pulled some of the blanket for himself. Then, Gu Hai also discovered that Bai Luo Yin slept on his stomach again! Gu Hai wondered, does he always sleep like this since 10 years ago? Did no one take care of him? Sleeping on his stomach for the whole night every day, yet he can still grow up until this big? It's truly a medical science miracle [2]. However when he thought about it again, Bai Luo Yin once said, since his parents divorced, he had always lived with his father, how can that man take care of a child? Gu Hai still slept with his mother for around three to four years, meanwhile Bai Luo Yin had definitely slept alone ever since he was still a small child, otherwise how can he toss around on the bed like this [3]? Thinking about it, Gu Hai didn't need extra effort to turn Bai Luo Yin over, he immediately stretched his arm, and held Bai Luo Yin. Tonight Bai Luo Yin slept very soundly, when Gu Hai pulled him into an embrace, he didn't give any response, the heat of his deep and heavy breath were all over Gu Hai's face. Gu Hai looked at the face within his reach. The more he sees it, the more good looking it becomes; the more he looks at it, his feelings for Bai Luo Yin becomes fonder, unconsciously he rubbed Bai Luo Yin's cheeks with his finger. Then, he himself was dumbfounded. What am I doing, frolicking with a man's body indecently in the middle of the night? My fondness for him, isn't it slightly beyond normal already? Gu Hai realized, every time he's with Bai Luo Yin, his heart never functioned properly. It's like there are two operation programs running in his belly, one program is for when he's with other people, and when he is with Bai Luo Yin, it will automatically
208
你丫上瘾了? switch to the other program, how do they even switch, it is strange as hell, even for himself. Early in the morning, Bai Luo Yin woke up comfortably, only to find that he was sleeping in Gu Hai's arms.. Damn it! He hugged me again! Bai Luo Yin was about to give him a punch, but his hand was frozen midair. This guy is sleeping very peacefully, it's fascinatingly safe and sound, the only thing missing is squeezing him into a cradle. Anyone who sees this handsome, strong and masculine man sleeping so innocently and naively, surely won't have the heart to hit him! Bai Luo Yin stared blankly at him for a while, suddenly a strange thought popped on his mind, when this guy is sleeping, he is really attractive, supposed if he doesn't wake up forever, it will be much better....... The little devil inside Gu Hai's heart jumped out and screamed: "Hey hey hey! If I don't wake up forever that means I'm dead!" ◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇ _________________________ [1] 'an overwhelming feeling': the literal translation is 'overturning seas and rivers' (an idiom).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------A/N: Hi there everyone! I'm Sienna, I hope that all of you are doing great. Firstly, in regards with the recent plagiarism of our translations and other translators' hard work, I want to thank every one of you sincerely. Thank you for supporting and defending us, we truly appreciate it. The poster has already apologized to both us and I have forgiven them. From what I've read, they don't know much about rules of plagiarism, have limited time to open wattpad and credit us (or so they claimed). However, after I read their replies to the other readers that reprimanded them, I find some of the replies... awfully rude and offensive. I'm actually having a mixed feeling regarding this. On one side, I'm relieved that they realized their mistake and decided to credit us (we'll see how this turns out). On the other side, when I saw the other replies, my perception for this person changed for the worse. In my opinion, telling the other readers that supported us to, pardon, 'fuck off', indirectly tell us, the translators, to 'fuck off' as well. I simply couldn't believe it, they apologized to us with well-mannered words, but at the same time, they uttered such foul words towards other people. Well, people can disagree, but this is how I really felt. I also wanted to point out, Estreline and I realized that they have previously put the words 'my works' (which disappointed me in the first place) in the description of the story, before they erased it. And then, from what I've observed, they replied to other readers that they never claimed the work as theirs, some with extremely offensive words mind you. I believe that the readers that have seen their replies are also aware of this. If not,
209
Are you Addicted? then you are welcome to read it with your very own eyes, although I can't provide the proof that they wrote 'my works' in the description, nor the rude replies if they eventually delete it later. From this, I'm sure that you can pull your own conclusions. To tell you the truth, I'm not the kind of person to find trouble with other people, except they decided to provoke first. So for the meantime, I'll just wait whether they'll eventually credit us (and other translators) or not. If they do, then I appreciate their effort to spread the love for Addicted. If not, then... well I don't really want to think about it right now. Sorry for the extremely long rant, but I've been holding this since Wednesday. Despite the recent mishaps, I hope that you truly enjoyed Chapter 55! Please look forward to Chapter 56!

Chapter 56: Playing a Basketball Match. Translator: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Class 27 was in the middle of an exciting basketball game. The male students of the class were divided into two teams, each team were led by Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai, one of them wont give a way to another, they were fighting vigorously. Originally, the teammates passed the ball to Gu Hai, Gu Hai would take the ball and fake a move, after that he would move to turn the ball behind his back in a disguised dribble, he was very quick to approach the inner line, the confident and beautiful shot gained a round of applause. When Bai Luo Yin received the ball, he moved one step forward, while keeping his waist the same height as the ball, Bai Luo Yin drilled his way to pass two guards. Gu Hai was less than half a meter away from him, assuming a defending position. Bai Luo Yin took a glimpse at him, estimating his defensive skills. Gu Hai suddenly smiled towards Bai Luo Yin, then he leaned forward, his speed extremely fast, Bai Luo Yin tossed the ball up in the air, turned his body from Gu Hai's side, then leaped high into the air to catch the ball in front of his head. Gu Hai retreated, rapidly reaching for the ball, but Bai Luo Yin had already passed the ball to another student, he aimed and threw the ball, but it bounced twice from the basketball ring. Then, Gu Hai swiftly jumped and snatched the rebound ball, he carried the ball and turned around, easily breaking through two guards, he dribbled until he was finally in front of Bai Luo Yin. Gu Hai used his right and left hand to dribble the ball alternately, darting and dodging about, Bai Luo Yin closed in step by step, not yielding at all. During the time where both of them were struggling to get the ball, their bodies continuously brushed and collided against each other. Bai Luo Yin attempted to look for a gap, yet there were absolutely no flaws in Gu Hai's offense. The longer they clashed, the more pleased they looked, and occasionally the surrounding crowd would applaud. All of a sudden, Bai Luo Yin smiled, this kind of happiness implied as if it had been a long time since he encountered such a worthy and evenly matched opponent, his smile was exceptionally bright. The sunlight above their head lingered upon his face, sketching the contours of a dazzling and touching youthful face. At that particular moment, Gu Hai's tightly stretched string finally snapped and his hand also loosened. 211
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin seized the opportunity to snatch the ball and lightly threw a beautiful three-pointer, drawing a burst of cheers from the crowd. Gu Hai gave Bai Luo Yin a strange look, concealing a rather vicious ambiguity, you are really something huh! So far as to use this trick to bewitch me?! The corner of Bai Luo Yin's mouth perked up, creating a conceited curve, who told you to daydream, serves you right! You Qi sat on the resting area, he was eating snacks while watching the two teams compete against each other. He was surrounded by a group of pretty girls, one was massaging his back, while the other was pouring water for him... nevertheless, his heart was still unhappy. These two can even exchange flirting glances while playing basketball, both of you are really shameless! "Stop kneading." You Qi talked to the girl beside him in a bad mood, "It's my turn to enter the court." Therefore, there was an additional heavyweight and handsome guy on the basketball court. After You Qi entered the court, he played vigorously all the way, it doesn't matter if his movements broke the rules, the only important thing was that he has to be handsome! Just a turn of his body could make several pretty girls go crazy, and they were constantly screaming, apparently a basketball game had become like a concert of a famous singer. You Qi seized a chance between the gaps and passed the ball to Gu Hai. Gu Hai caught the ball and quickly launched his offensive move towards the inner lines. Just when he was about to shoot the ball, You Qi charged over and without saying anything, he stole the ball then ran away. Gu Hai was stupefied, he never thought to guard You Qi in the first place, as he was the one who passed this ball to him, thus proving that both of them were in the same team, but then why would You Qi pass the ball over, only to snatch it again later? During the time that Gu Hai couldn't comprehend anything, You Qi passed the ball over to Bai Luo Yin again. Bai Luo Yin thought that You Qi intentionally fooled Gu Hai just now, so he gave a happy and cooperative look towards him. However, at the same place, You Qi roughly snatched the ball from Bai Luo Yin's hands again, then passed it to another student, but then he stole it again from that student...
212
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai shared a look and immediately realized, this guy came here on purpose to stir up trouble. "Ah ah ah... Don't hit me, hitting people is a foul!" When You Qi cried out in pain, he still didn't forget to fling his hair messily. "Is there anyone who played basketball like you do? Go go go, don't make trouble anymore, go back to where you came from and just act cute there!" After You Qi left, the basketball game continued and the time was running out, but the score difference had yet to increase. Both teams were starting to gather up their remaining energy, intending to beat the opposite team before the class was over. In Gu Hai's team, there was a person nicknamed Fei Zei Zi [1], this person was fat and had a violent play style, he liked to roar when playing basketball, he often charged and collided into other people unconsciously. Gu Hai was afraid that he might injure Bai Luo Yin, so he specially instructed that guy to guard the second key player in Bai Luo Yin's team. Regardless of his play style, once this fellow became too excited and he saw that the opposite team would win, he would even stamp his foot until a big hole appeared on the ground if he could! Seeing that it was ten minutes before the class finished, Bai Luo Yin scored two more three pointers, increasing the difference of the scores. Fei Zei Zi was already impatient, he didn't care whom he was guarding anymore, his huge body continuously followed Bai Luo Yin's movement closely. Right now, his only aim was to stop Bai Luo Yin from getting the ball as his three pointers were undoubtedly too accurate. Hence, the reason why many people wanted to join Bai Luo Yin's team was, because everyone relied on his three pointers. _________________________ [1] Fei Zei Zi: if translated into English, his name would be 'Fat Traitor'
213
Are you Addicted?
Chapter 57: Someone Flies into a Rage! Translator: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bai Luo Yin received the ball again, he's also standing outside the three point line. Fei Zei Zi couldn't stay calm anymore, if this three pointer succeeded again, it would be very hard for their team to catch up their score. Therefore, without any delay, this guy charged forward and tried to snatch the ball in Bai Luo Yin's hand crazily. Bai Luo Yin's skills were extremely nimble, whereas Fei Zei Zi's body was heavy, thus for him to endure Bai Luo Yin's many skills and tricks, he quickly became dizzy and confused. Bai Luo Yin passed the ball to his teammate first, then dodged Fei Zei Zi from the left and caught the ball that his teammate tossed back to him. Fei Zei Zi went mad, he turned towards Bai Luo Yin and then shoved him with his shoulder. Bai Luo Yin barely jumped up, it goes without saying that his center of gravity was unsteady, so when Fei Zei Zi bumped against him like that, his entire body collided with the pole below the basketball hoop. When Gu Hai realized the negative turn of events moments ago, he wanted to shout and stop Fei Zei Zi. However, it was too late. He took several large strides, intending to catch Bai Luo Yin with his hand. But in the end, their distance were too far apart, when Gu Hai rushed to him, Bai Luo Yin had already tumbled down at the bottom of the portable basketball hoop. Gu Hai's face suddenly changed color, everyone could see it clearly, when he went to support Bai Luo Yin, his hands were trembling all over. Bai Luo Yin's fall was not to be taken lightly, half of his face had turned purple, a trail of red blood flowed from his nose, and his lips were also split. "Fuck you! How dare you push him?" Gu Hai grabbed Fei Zei Zi's collar firmly with one hand, his whole face abruptly turned dark, his eyes looked as if they wanted to swallow him up. No one was brave enough to move and pull Gu Hai, Gu Hai used his foot to kick the soft muscle of Fei Zei Zi's legs until he screamed in tremendous pain, both of his legs continued to kick at him. Gu Hai punched him twice, insisting on beating this one hundred kg fatso to the ground, and in spite of his struggles, Gu Hai still kicked at his body ruthlessly for so many times, each kick was swift as the wind, until Fei Zei Zi finally couldn't shout a single word anymore. 214
你丫上瘾了? You Qi took out a towel to wipe Bai Luo Yin's face, while carefully helping him to dust off the soil from his body. After Gu Hai had finished venting off his rage, he approached Bai Luo Yin and pushed You Qi away, Gu Hai spoke to Bai Luo Yin with a gentle voice, "Let me look at it, does it hurt badly?" "It's nothing." Bai Luo Yin knitted his eyebrows. Gu Hai took Bai Luo Yin hand to keep it away from his face and looked at him carefully, he couldn't conceal the deep anguish and regret in his eyes. "How can you call this nothing? Will your family call this nothing?" Gu Hai was both angry and troubled when he supported Bai Luo Yin to leave the court, walking while muttering curses along the way, "That pole is very hard! I should've dragged that stupid cunt and bash him against the pole a few times, let him taste his own medicine, fuck..." You Qi helped them to bring their bags, as he walked behind them, a complicated expression could be seen from his face. "Hey!... I'm talking to you, the one with the very stupid name..." You Qi was in a trance, when he felt someone pat his shoulder once, he turned around and was met with a delicate and pretty face. "What are you doing here?" You Qi asked. Yang Meng was all smiles, "Our next period is PE class. Your class is already over, right? Why I haven't seen Bai Luo Yin?" "Don't you see him in front?" Yang Meng laughed awkwardly, "I forgot to wear my glasses." "Then, how can you even see me?" Yang Meng snorted, "With your stinky and cocky appearance, who wouldn't see you? Say, my desk mate has developed an interest in you, she's always talking about you in front of me all day long. You Qi this, You Qi that, hearing it makes me wanna puke right away." Using one hand, You Qi pulled Yang Meng's small stature into his arms, talking while grinding his teeth: "You want to try me?" "No no no..." Yang Meng recoiled his neck in provocation, "I can't play, you have skill so just play with Bai Luo Yin." You Qi raised his chin, hinting Yang Meng to look at Bai Luo Yin. 215
Are you Addicted? "He couldn't play anymore." Yang Meng's complexion changed, "What happened?" "Why don't you go and see it by yourself?!" Yang Meng jogged a few paces and stopped in front of Bai Luo Yin, staring at him for quite a long time, his mouth kept on moving but no words came out. Not until Bai Luo Yin raised his head that Yang Meng clenched his teeth and bit back a cry of surprise, his expression akin to being crushed by a wolf. "Holy shit, Yin Zi! How did you get yourself beaten so badly?" It's been a long time since Bai Luo Yin last saw Yang Meng, and now that he had the chance to meet him, Yang Meng was looking at him with a worried face, Bai Louyin's heart suddenly felt especially warm. Extending an arm, he easily pulled Yang Meng into a hug, moreover Yang Meng looked so delicate and pretty, from afar it looked like he was embracing a small girl. Bai Luo Yin habitually pinched Yang Meng's tender cheeks, while Yang Meng used his elbow to poke Bai Luo Yin in the stomach. Both of them acted just the same as meeting each other when they were still children, very intimate and affectionate.

Chapter 58: Jealousy Strikes! Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Right, you haven't told me yet, why is your face like that?" Bai Luo Yin curled his lips reluctantly, "I ran into the pole below the basketball hoop." Yang Meng was worried, but he was also amused. "What the... When you're playing basketball, then just play it, why do you have to run into the pole?" After he said that, he reached out his hand to touch the corner of Bai Luo Yin's mouth, then he gritted his own teeth at the sight of the flowing blood, it was as if he was the one in pain. "A big guy in my class bumped into me, I didn't stand firmly." "How many kilos is he?" "Over 100 kg!" Yang Meng became annoyed, "That team's captain is not in the right mind! He let a guy who's over 100 kg to play, isn't it clear that he just wanted to injure other people? Fuck! You should ask him to pay for your medical bill!" After Yang Meng finished speaking, the entire world went silent, he felt that the willow branches beside him had formed a thin layer of ice frost. He glanced at the man who hadn't said anything at all since the beginning, his face looked like it was painted with black oil. You Qi wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare to, the corner of his mouth only twitched a bit. Yang Meng looked at Gu Hai, the latter was also looking at him, he couldn't help but to shiver, why does this guy look like he was being possessed by the King of Hell? "Yin Zi, who's the guy beside you?" Yang Meng whispered. Bai Luo Yin replied him briefly with one word, "Captain." Eh....... Yang Meng was dumbfounded, his Adam's apple bobbed up and down, he tried to greet Gu Hai naturally. "That.... I'm sorry, don't listen to what I've said just now." 217
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai slightly restrained his expression, his swift and fierce eyes swept over Yang Meng, his smile concealed a murderous intent. "I'm Gu Hai, nice to meet you, pretty girl." Yang Meng got angry, "Look at here properly, I'm a boy." Gu Hai smiled apologetically, "Really? I couldn't see it at all." Bai Luo Yin glanced at Gu Hai, "What's wrong with your eyes?" Gu Hai simply replied with one sentence, "Even if my eyesight is bad, I'd still be able to see people, unlike someone, who fell once and then went blind in the eyes." Bai Luo Yin's face immediately fell, his tone also became rather harsh. "Gu Hai, enough! Didn't Yang Meng say that he was at fault? Why are you being so mean to him? He didn't play basketball with us anyway, how can he know that you're the captain?" There was a scale in Gu Hai's heart, one side is like being stepped by someone, and tilted the other side up, which contains an old jar filled with sour vinegar[1]. Bang! Everything flowed out without exception, soaking Gu Hai's heart with acrid heartache. Just now when he was mocking me, you didn't say anything. Now when I'm just joking with him, look at you being all serious! Fine, you only think of me as an eyesore, right? I won't waste my time with you anymore! Gu Hai took Bai Luo Yin's clothes, suddenly he threw it onto his body, and turned around without saying anything. "No, why is that guy so bad-tempered?" Yang Meng gave a confused expression. Bai Luo Yin was composed, he didn't say anything. Yang Meng asked Bai Luo Yin again, "Is it okay?" "It's okay, just ignore him!" ....... Bai Luo Yin rested until almost half of the class time then he came back, the left part of his face was completely swollen, especially near the cheekbones, there was a large bruise. Gu Hai took a quick glance at Bai Luo Yin and immediately regretted it, just now he had talked to himself properly, this person is unworthy to be cared for, he always did 218
你丫上瘾了? whatever he wants, and after that he won't let other people to meddle in his business anymore. Nevertheless, when he saw Bai Luo Yin's condition, Gu Hai's heart changed right away, why are you angry with him? Who would be in a good mood after being knocked and got hurt like that? Can't you just let it go this time? Look at him right now, you don't even say a few words to comfort him, yet you still pull a long face? Aren't you too lacking in humanity? When Gu Hai was still at loss, Bai Luo Yin pulled out a wallet from his drawer and then threw it to Gu Hai's desk. "It's yours." Two words, stiff and cold. Gu Hai heard it already, Bai Luo Yin is still angry! Are you still angry?... The temperature of Gu Hai's heart dropped again, why are you angry? Because of that one sentence that I said to your best friend? Just now, I've planned to forgive you first, yet you're still being harsh and unreasonable towards me? Fine! If you can, then don't even speak a single word to me! Let's see, between the two of us, who is tougher! Even after Bai Luo Yin threw the wallet to Gu Hai, his mood didn't get any better. On the contrary, he was very agitated. He didn't even listen to the teacher's words, yet he was really sensitive to the sound behind him, when Gu Hai coughed, or when Gu Hai's desk moved a bit, his nerve would become taut right away, it took him a quite a long time before he can calm down. In order to endure these two classes quickly, Bai Luo Yin decided to sleep. However, just when he was about to lean on the desk, he suddenly took a deep breath. The desk was too hard, Bai Luo Yin forgot that his left cheek was injured, so when he carelessly placed his face on the desk, it hurts so much that his intestines felt like it was being tied into a knot. He adjusted his position in a hurry, but as a result, his wrist bone directly jabbed the right corner of his mouth, it hurts as he breathe deeply. But he persisted, his eyebrows didn't even wrinkle, he simply forced himself to endure it. As expected, every single movement that Bai Luo Yin did was in Gu Hai's sight. Every time Bai Luo Yin moves, his heart feels like it will stop beating anytime. But then, this person is really strong! The last time his father pressed him on the window, he didn't even submit to him, why does this kind of small thing matters so much? If Bai Luo Yin can endure the pain from lying on the desk, then why is he unable to bear such a trivial thing like sitting at the back? 219

Chapter 59: Once again, he is forgiven. Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After school finished, Bai Luo Yin went out from the classroom right away, he didn't wait for Gu Hai like usual, as if he wasn't there at all. He calmly and neatly walked down the stairs, he didn't even look back. Gu Hai rode his own bike, slowly tailing behind him. When the aunt who swept the street saw Bai Luo Yin, she stopped sweeping and smiled towards him. "I remember these past few days you're always riding a bike to school! Why are you walking today?" Bai Luo Yin forced out a smile, "The bike is broken, so now's my chance to exercise." This lady not only had a good memory, but she had sharp eyes as well. Bai Luo Yin had barely finished his sentence, when she pointed behind Bai Luo Yin and said, "That's broken? Isn't that young man riding it just fine?" Bai Luo Yin didn't turn his head back, his injured left cheek became increasingly stiffer. "You're mistaken, it's not that bike." "It can't be." She laughed heartily, "Even if the bike is different, but the young man will always be the same, no? I'm absolutely sure, I always see him taking you to school every day." Only then, Bai Luo Yin finally glanced at Gu Hai. Gu Hai deliberately didn't meet Bai Luo Yin's eyes, he put on a defiant attitude. "Oh my, what happened to your face?" When Bai Luo Yin turned his head, it just happened that the aunt saw the bruises on Bai Luo Yin's left cheek, she then discovered that there were bruises all over Bai Luo Yin's face. "It's nothing, auntie. You're busy, so I'm going now." ........
221
Are you Addicted? After they walked half way home, Gu Hai discovered that there was something wrong with Bai Luo Yin's left leg, the faster he walked, the more obvious it became. Especially when he was in a hurry to cross the road, in the middle of the crowd, he would limp heavily. Gu Hai did his best to restrain himself from helping Bai Luo Yin, but he finally snapped. He rode his bike quickly, soon he arrived in front of Bai Luo Yin, he stopped suddenly, and immediately threw the bike away on the roadside. "What are you doing?" Bai Luo Yin furrowed his eyebrow. Gu Hai crouched down, without any explanation, he rolled up Bai Luo Yin's left trousers. A huge reddish purple bruise, with all the clotting blood, were exposed under his delicate flesh. Gu Hai stood up, then he picked up his bike and ordered in a deep voice: "Get on." Bai Luo Yin acted like he didn't hear him as he coldly walked past Gu Hai. Gu Hai grabbed Bai Luo Yin and pulled him back. Because Gu Hai used too much strength, Bai Luo Yin nearly fell onto the ground. "What are you doing?!" Bai Luo Yin was furious. "I'm telling you to get on!" Gu Hai shouted at Bai Luo Yin. Both of them refused to budge for a few seconds, no one would open their mouth. Bai Luo Yin's expression changed, in the end he finally got on the bike. They remained silent all along the way until they reached the house's entrance, Bai Luo Yin immediately went inside, Gu Hai turned around and was about to leave. Since Bai Luo Yin went down from the bike, he believed that Gu Hai would follow him into the house even if it's against his will, who would've thought that Gu Hai would actually leave just like that. ....... "Dad, I'm home." When Bai Han Qi saw Bai Luo Yin, he was stunned for a moment, the bowl in his hand almost broke into pieces. "Son, what happened to your face?" Bai Luo Yin replied lightly that it's nothing, then calmly went inside his room, Bai Han Qi just followed behind him. 222
你丫上瘾了? After he inquired about what exactly happened in full detail, Bai Han Qi finally let it go. When he remembered that he was still stewing some vegetable in the pot, he got flustered and ran out from Bai Luo Yin's room in a hurry. Bai Luo Yin was alone in his room, but he was feeling bitter, did Gu Hai finally went crazy? Didn't they talk already? Why is he so bad-tempered? Okay then, if you don't want to come in, just do what you want to do, in any case he has plenty of money, he won't starve to death! "Yin Zi, come here and eat!" Bai Han Qi yelled from the outside. Bai Luo Yin yelled back, "I'm not hungry, just eat by yourself!" Bai Han Qi went inside Bai Luo Yin's room again, "Why are you not hungry? What about Da Hai? He didn't come back together with you?" "He's dead!" "Dead?" Bai Han Qi's expression changed, "Why is he dead?" "Enough, dad, just forget about him, just eat...." Bai Luo Yin pushed Bai Han Qi outside. Bai Luo Yin turned on his computer. He hadn't played for long when he suddenly heard a familiar voice from the outside. "Uncle, what is the food for today? Why didn't you wait for me?" Bai Han Qi replied honestly, "Our Yin Zi said that you're dead." Gu Hai: "........" Bai Luo Yin walked out with heavy steps, there were sparks coming out from the soles of his feet. "Who told you to come inside? Didn't you say that you're unwilling to deal with me?" Gu Hai regained his crafty, evil smile, "But I didn't pay any attention to you! It's only your imagination, I come here in hurry to see my uncle and my grandma, right grandma?" "Yes, yes." Grandma Bai couldn't differentiate which one is her grandson anymore. Bai Luo Yin turned around to return to his room, on the corner of his torn lips, there was an obvious, thin smile that he was unable to conceal. Gu Hai followed him inside, without any difficulties, he simply threw a bag full of medicine onto Bai Luo Yin's bed. Bai Luo Yin just realized where did Gu Hai went before. 223
Are you Addicted? "I've gotten some medicine from the clinic already, why did you buy it again?" "The medicine you got from the clinic is bought from other people, this is the one I bought for you, could it possibly be the same?" While talking, he swiftly grabbed every single medicine from Bai Luo Yin's schoolbag and threw it into the trash bin in, including all the band-aids.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: grantye Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After dinner, Gu Hai took the initiative to give Bai Luo Yin a suggestion. "Let's take a bath together, I can help you rub your body, since there's a wound on your body, it is best to avoid any contact with water." Bai Luo Yin flatly refused, "Did I get hit that hard? It won't hinder me from taking a bath." "Your leg is also injured, right?" Gu Hai's cunning gaze was heavily fixed on Bai Luo Yin's knee, hoping that Bai Luo Yin would give him a good answer. "It's just a little swollen, how can this be counted as a wound?" Bai Luo Yin didn't care at all, he took out his clothes and went straight past the shower curtain. "What's wrong with two men taking a bath together? Why are you being so shy?" "I don't want to see you." Those harsh and obstinate words didn't shock Gu Hai at all. On the contrary, those words provoked a faint smile upon Gu Hai's face. ...... Bai Luo Yin was in the middle of showering when he felt the plastic shower curtain was lifted open, exposing Gu Hai's evil yet charming face. "I'm worried about you, is it okay there?" Bai Luo Yin immediately threw a soap box out, angrily shouted, "No problem!" Gu Hai put down the plastic shower curtain, as if he got the upper hand, then walked away with a smile. His heart wondered deeply, why are you being so thin skinned? The last time when you were drunk, you spontaneously compared your thing with mine! It 225
Are you Addicted? can be seen that, although this person restrained himself on the outside, and he didn't show it on the outside, but deep inside he's actually much more flirtatious than any other people! Bai Luo Yin hurried and ended his bath, then he put on his clothes while feeling confused. He often went to public baths and took a bath there, showering butt to butt with a bunch of men, yet it's not awkward. How come when faced with Gu Hai, it shifted into a different feeling? Gu Hai let Bai Luo Yin took off his trousers, his hand held the antiseptic liquid to clean Bai Luo Yin's wound. When Bai Luo Yin saw the white-colored cotton bud and transparent liquid, his body trembled a little. In his childhood, whenever he was injured, Bai Han Qi would apply the medicament for him. He would use the alcohol every single time, and the wound cleaning process would hurt more than the bleeding. "No need to clean the wound, just apply the medicine." "Stay still!" Gu Hai pulled and stopped Bai Luo Yin's shaking legs, he tried to comfort him as much as possible and said: "Don't worry, it won't hurt." Bai Luo Yin barely relaxed a little, then he instantly felt an intense pain, permeating up to his bone narrow, the pain made him groan continuously. "Fuck, didn't you said it won't hurt?" Gu Hai grinned wickedly, "Do you really believe me when I say it won't hurt?" Bai Luo Yin gritted his teeth. Gu Hai felt comfortable in his heart, who told you to be angry today? If I don't allow you to get hurt for a while, I won't feel peaceful because we're not even. When the medicine was applied, Bai Luo Yin didn't utter a single word. After applying the medicine, Gu Hai gave Bai Luo Yin a glance, seeing his facial expression, he couldn't resist asking: "Does it still hurt?" Bai Luo Yin shook his head. After that, Gu Hai deliberately applied the medicine slowly, then opened his mouth while facing Bai Luo Yin and asked: "Who is that sissy-looking[1] boy this afternoon?" Hearing those words, Bai Luo Yin exploded and replied, "Can't you say something nicer?" "He grew up like that, why blame me?" 226
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin gave Gu Hai a sinister gaze, then replied in a bad mood, "He is my childhood friend, he lives in this neighbourhood, he's a good person!" "What's his name?" "Yang Meng." "Yang Meng [2]? Nggg.... right, he's quite adorable." Bai Luo Yin ferociously slapped Gu Hai's head, "Are you done or not?" After saying those words, Bai Luo Yin immediately kicked Gu Hai, then put his blanket over. After the lights was turned off, Gu Hai started to use his unrivaled might to harass Bai Luo Yin. These past several days, he always took advantage of Bai Luo Yin when he was sleeping, 'groping here and pinching there', then he realized, lying while facing Bai Luo Yin, he couldn't help but to sneakily slip his hand into Bai Luo Yin's pajamas. It's so damn smooth..... Gu Hai was filled with self-satisfaction. Bai Luyoin used his strengh and pushed Gu Hai from his chest, slightly furrowed his eyebrows then asked, "Are you nuts? It's late at night, why are you touching my body instead of sleeping? Gu Hai moved his head closer, residing on Bai Luo Yin's shoulder with a shameless look upon his face. "I just want to touch you." When Gu Hai touched him, Bai Luo Yin felt goosebumps all over his body, he then scolded Gu Hai while feeling confused, "You have a girlfriend, yet you don't touch her at all, what are you touching me for?" "Touching her is not as satisfying as touching you...." Gu Hai whispered softly in Bai Luo Yin's ears. Bai Luo Yin glared at Gu Hai, "What did you say?" Seeing Bai Luo Yin with this kind of expression, Gu Hai took a deep breath then bit his lip. "She's not here, how can I touch her, my heart is ticklish, but you are the only one beside me......." Bai Luo Yin furiously pulled Gu Hai's hand out, then turned his body towards facing Gu Hai. 227
Are you Addicted? "Isn't it more pleasurable to touch yourself?" Gu Hai's words became even more shameless, "I want you to get excited too, and then two of us fooling around together, that's a lot more exciting!" "Who said I want to join you?" Bai Luo Yin was so angry that his chest heaved up and down, then continuously gaze at Gu Hai, all he could do was being extremely cautious, afraid that Gu Hai's evil hand would slip in again. Seeing Bai Luo Yin's swollen face, Gu Hai felt that there was a bit of shyness in Bai Luo Yin's attitude when he was looking at Gu Hai, and suddenly he realized that this Bai Luo Yin was unbelievably adorable. As Gu Hai thought to bully Bai Luo Yin, he saw that unbending lips and that stubborn glance. His expression after being teased was a look of silent endurance, yet it also showed enjoyment. _________________________ [1] 'sissy looking': CJD wrote 丿男丿女 in her novel, which literally means "not male not female".

"Hey, I've been staying at your place for more than 10 days, but why haven't I seen you jerk off at all?" Bai Luo Yin turned his body to the side, unwilling to respond to Gu Hai's question, "Even if I really do it, I won't let you see it." Gu Hai then pressed his chest on Bai Luo Yin's back, with his infinite enchanting voice, he said, "When did you do it? I've always been together with you 24 hours everyday, yet I've never seen you do anything." Bai Luo Yin used his elbow to hit Gu Hai's waist, "Do you still have the energy to talk about this thing in the middle of the night?" Gu Hai's waist went numb, it made him spoke glibly, "Aren't you supposed to talk about this kind of stuff at night?" Bai Luo Yin closed his eyes, intending to ignore this late night lecherous man beside him. Gu Hai stretched his hand out towards Bai Luo Yin again, straightly went into Bai Luo Yin's trousers waist, at first he pretended to pinch the muscle in Bai Luo Yin's lower abdomen. When Bai Luo Yin didn't pay any attention to it, he took a chance and immediately inserted his hand inside. During the time he was waiting for Bai Luo Yin to yank his hand out, his hand accidentally touched the ends of Bai Luo Yin's pubic hair. Bai Luo Yin's eyes burned like a ball of fire, suddenly he pounced himself on top of Gu Hai's body, and he fiercely attacking his weakest point. "If you still disturb me, then I'll kick you out!" Gu Hai smiled until his chin almost fell down, "We're both men, what's wrong with touching each other a little bit? Haven't you heard about it? If another guy helped you to jerk off, it will improve your sexual performance." 229
Are you Addicted? "Bullshit. Why I've never heard about this before? Besides, even without your help, my performance is already first class." "Oh!" Gu Hai looked astonished, "Hearing you talk like this, looks like you've got plenty of experience. How was it? Have you fired the cannon to your girlfriend already?" "Does it have anything to do with you?" Gu Hai didn't know whether he was just curious, or he felt anxious; he kept asking Bai Luo Yin nonstop, "Tell me the truth, actually you're still a virgin, right?" Bai Luo Yin replied him indifferently, "Ask yourself first, I am what you are." Gu Hai had a plan in his mind. "Then let's exchange stories, tell me the story about your first time with your Hui Er, then I will share my story about my first time with Lu Lu." "I don't want to hear about your first time." Bai Luo Yin said. Gu Hai was surprised, "Why? It's such an exciting story and you don't want to hear about it?" "What's so exciting about it?" Bai Luo Yin said with a cold voice, "Isn't it just about two guys jerking off together?" Gu Hai hit Bai Luo Yin, "Who did you say is a guy?" The spot that Gu Hai hit was exactly on the bruise on Bai Luo Yin's forehead, it caused him to take a deep breath immediately. Gu Hai became nervous right away, he hurriedly examined Bai Luo Yin's bruise, and carefully blew air onto it, "Does it hurt?" Bai Luo Yin pushed Gu Hai's hand away, tucked his quilt up to his neck, and simply threw a sentence, "Go to sleep!" "No!" Gu Hai pressed his entire body down on top of Bai Luo Yin's body, "You have to tell me!" "Why do I have to talk about it?" Bai Luo Yin became impatient. "To satisfy my curiosity. I'm really interested in your performance on bed." "Aren't you just poking on my wounds? I broke up with her already." Gu Hai didn't know why, but when he saw Bai Luo Yin concealing and hiding his past to such an extent, and he being concerned about the girl named Shi Hui this much, he suddenly felt really unhappy. 230
你丫上瘾了? "If you don't want to talk about it, it proves that you're not good at it. I, as a representative from Chinese People's Liberation Army, look down upon you." It's not that Bai Luo Yin didn't want to talk about it, but it's simply because he has nothing to say, he and Shi Hui only had one sexual encounter, just that one night before Shi Hui went abroad. Previously, Bai Luo Yin strongly believed that he owned this girl, thus he came to hold on her, and let her call him 'husband, husband' from the back for the whole day. Even after she went abroad, she still labeled herself as Bai Luo Yin's girlfriend. So, when this girl stripped herself naked and laid herself in front of him, he had nowhere else to go. Supposed if they were really broke up, leaving her virginity intact was the best gift. Therefore, during the many nights after Shi Hui went abroad, Bai Luo Yin was still dreaming about the last step that he didn't manage to accomplish that night. [1] "If you want, you can just tell me about your first time." Bai Luo Yin honestly couldn't imagine, a man like Gu Hai, who is so vigorous and energetic like a tiger, compared to the small Jin Lu Lu, how can she possibly endure him. "My first time huh, it was mind-blowing." Gu Hai began to talk nonsense. Bai Luo Yin started to become interested, "Tell me, how mind-blowing it was?" Gu Hai talked about it dramatically, when two guys talk about this kind of thing, won't they get excited? In less than 10 sentences, both little Hai Zi and little Yin Zi below became energetically aroused, separated by a thin layer of flimsy cloth, it kept on extending without stopping. Gu Hai poked at Bai Luo Yin a few times, "Have you ever tried to let other people jerk you off? It feels exceptionally good." Bai Luo Yin bear his smile, "I like to do it myself." "What's wrong with two guys masturbating together? Besides, your little Yin Zi below has been calling me since before!" "Fuck off!" Bai Luo Yin went down from the bed, he put on a coat and then he walked out. Gu Hai intentionally joked on him from behind, "Your bathroom is in the open air! Do you really want to let your little Yin Zi become frozen? I'm worried about you!" _________________________ [1] 'the accomplishment that he didn't do that night//the last step that he didn't manage to

Are you Addicted? accomplish at that night': this means Bai Luo Yin didn't have sex with Shi Hui during the last night before Shi Hui went abroad.

Chapter 62: Aunt Zou's Stall is Wrecked. Translator: grantye Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After eating breakfast, the two men stared at each other, deciding whose turn it was to pay for today's meal. "It's on me." Bai Luo Yin dug the pocket of his trousers, "Eh? I definitely put some money in yesterday, how come it's not here?" "If you don't want to pay, then just say it directly." Gu Hai replied sarcastically, then he got up and left to pay. Actually, it was Gu Hai who secretly took the money out from Bai Luo Yin's trousers' pocket last night. Aunt Zou was in the middle of frying the deep-fried breadstick, seeing Gu Hai heading to the paper box to pay, she hastily held him back, "Aiyo, you two don't need to pay." "Aunt, you don't need to be so courteous with us." Those two were just about to get up and leave, when suddenly a law enforcement government car stopped beside the curb, after that four to five men went down, all of them were carrying weapon in their hands, with menacing faces, heading straight towards the breakfast stall. "Don't go yet!" Bai Luo Yin pulled Gu Hai's bike. After the five government officers came, without saying anything, they smashed the stove, the kneading board, and the big pot with ladle. When the several customers who were still eating their breakfast saw the situation, all of them packed their belongings then hurriedly left. The matter happened almost in a flash, all of the people there had yet to react, but the ground was already in a complete mess. An officer with crewcut hair and slanted eyebrows[1], took on a bandit-like attitude, when he saw the deep fryer was still standing upright, he didn't care whether there were any people or not, he ferociously kicked the deep fryer, all the boiling oil directly spilled towards Aunt Zou. "Auntie!" Bai Luo Yin shouted, he suddenly rushed over, wanting to pull the handle of deep fryer, but was held back by Gu Hai, he saw the scalding oil splashed onto Aunt Zou's leg. 233
Are you Addicted? Aunt Zou's eyes suddenly opened wide, the corner of her mouth twitched, her body immediately fell to the ground and she wailed while holding her leg tightly. "What do you guys want?" Bai Luo Yin yelled. The shorthaired officer answered disdainfully, "What do we want? This is called law enforcement!" "If you want to enforce law then just do it, why do you need to fucking break the things here?" Bai Luo Yin's face turned dark. The helping officer then showed a ruthless face, which looked rather violent, and pointed his finger at the youngster. "You're asking why we broke the things here?" The shorthaired officer stomped on the ground, causing the thermos flask beside him to break into pieces, "I'm not breaking things, it's this stinky woman who doesn't want to move." Aunt Zou was still sitting on the ground crying heavily, Bai Luo Yin's hand continued to tremble uncontrollably, his stern and fierce gaze focused upon every single inch of the officer's body. He took a large step and rushed out, but Gu Hai pulled him back once more, Bai Luo Yin's eye reddened while glaring at Gu Hai, "Let me go!" Gu Hai was exceptionally calm, he grasped Bai Luo Yin's hand firmly, uttered each word separately[2], "You go and support Aunt Zou first, believe me, you only need to remember their faces clearly." Aunt Zou cried hoarsely, her right foot hurt as it kept on convulsing. There were a lot of noisy bystanders, however none of them dared to step forward and help her. Those officers continued to destroy things, those old-fashioned tables were snapped into pieces, the chairs' legs and its seat were all severed apart, and even the money in the paper box fell to the ground. In her fear and anxiety, Aunt Zou hurriedly collected the coins, yet she left the remaining bigger bills and let the officer took them. So much torment, several months of hard-earned money were all taken away, these things might had little value, yet this kind of small business couldn't earn that much money in the first place. Moreover, Aunt Zou was an honest person. Forget about saving some of the money, even purchasing the necessary things would cost all of her fortune. Aunt Zou witnessed the tattered mess on the ground, the empty paper box, meanwhile piercing pain on her leg had yet to lessen, the only thing that remained was her tears, flowing down quietly. Gu Hai carried Aunt Zou on his back, Bai Luo Yin went home to tell Bai Han Qi, who intended to bring Aunt Zou to the hospital immediately. 234
你丫上瘾了? "You guys go to school, I can handle this alone." Bai Han Qi urged Bai Luo Yin and Guhai, "No problem, no need to worry. Quick, just go, don't waste your study time." "Dad, I want to go too." Bai Luo Yin's eyes showed deep worry. "Listen to me!" Bai Han Qi's face was dead serious. Aunt Zou, with a pale face and hoarse voice, persuaded Bai Luo Yin, "Auntie is okay now, you should hurry and go to school." Bai Luo Yin hadn't moved yet, staring as Bai Han Qi rode his electric tricycle, carrying pallid and grief-stricken Aunt Zou away. After staying silent for a long time, Bai Luo Yin suddenly landed a severe punch on Gu Hai's stomach, "I can't tolerate this kind of injustice!" Gu Hai stood firmly, his waist didn't bend at all. Seeing Gu Hai resisting the pain without any grumbling nor resentment, while staring at himself with a face full of compassion, his heart slowly began to calm down, the residual anger in his eyes also dimmed gradually. When Gu Hai caught sight of Bai Luo Yin's expression right now, a heartache[3] that Gu Hai had never felt before invaded his heart, he preferred to be kicked by Bai Luo Yin, would rather be abused by his insults, he really didn't want to see Bai Luo Yin like this. "I know you have a strong sense of justice, but you need to use different strategy to deal with different people." Bai Luo Yin clenched his fist then said, "I just can't tolerate this kind of injustice." "Okay, okay." Gu Hai spoke softly, "You still remember their face, right? Relax, they won't get away." Bai Luo Yin snorted coldy, "It's clear that what they did was bullying people, the stall was there, near the entrance of an alley, whose eyes could possibly be offended by it? Usually, no shadows of the officers would appear, yet today, they wrought havoc without any warning ......" Gu Hai's arm encircled Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, coaxing him while patting his back, "Don't lower yourself to the same level as them." Bai Luo Yin pushed Gu Hai away, there was a subtle change in his eyes, "I know who did this." "Don't find her." Gu Hai held Bai Luo Yin's hand tightly, "Listen to me, don't find her!"

Are you Addicted? _________________________ [1] A crew cut hair and slanted eyebrows': CJD wrote that the officer had 八字眉 (bĿzìméi), it means八-shaped eyebrows or slanted eyebrow. Crewcut hair is a hairstyle with short hair. [2] Uttered each word separately :CJD wrote 一字一顿地说 in her original novel, which literally means speaking with pauses. I believe this was to convey all of his emotion to BLY completely, emphasizing his sincerity. More explanation here : http://sixminutes.dlugan.com/pause-speech/ [3] Heartache - CJD wrote心疼, which means heartache, but its meaning can also be interpreted as 'to feel sorry for the people whom we love dearly', that way 心疼 can also means 'to love dearly'.

Chapter 63: Gu Hai's Insane Counter Attack. Translator: grantye Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At 10 PM sharp, Gu Hai invited the Director of City Urban Administrative and Law Enforcement Bureau to drink tea. "Is Commander Gu healthy lately?" Gu Hai answered with a blank face, "Very good, how about you?" "Me? Ah, I'm pretty good too." "I can see that you're not only physically healthy, but your psychological condition is also very good." Bureau director laughed awkwardly, "Psychological condition? Ah, regarding that matter, there's a lot of trouble recently, so...." "If your psychological condition is not good, then how are you able to dispatch a troop of remarkable law enforcers?" Gu Hai interrupted the director's words. The bureau director's complexion changed, his smile showed some akwardness. "Young master Gu, if there is something you want to say, please say it directly, if we have done something wrong somewhere, please do not hesitate to point them out." Gu Hai slightly restrained both of his eyes, his gaze was concentrated on the director, not saying anything. When the director received an icy and sharp gaze from Gu Hai, he felt rather nervous, his heart was pounding like a drum, what have I done to provoke this man? "My aunt's breakfast stall was destroyed by your Law Enforcement Officers, my Aunt is still in the hospital right now, please explain this to me." "That......." The director's face turned pale in a split second, his talking became not too nimble, "Ah..... That bunch of scoundrels...... Who dared to destroy your aunt's stall? Young master Gu, please don't be angry, I will find the captain later to discuss about this problem, I'll drag those troublemaking brats out one by one to apologize to your aunt." "So if she's not my aunt, she deserves the wreckage, huh?"
237
Are you Addicted? "What?" The director's palm started to sweat, "No matter whose stall they wrecked, it's still wrong! I've educated them time and again, to supervise and influence compassionately, to win people by virtue, try our best to persuade, yet they didn't listen...." Gu Hai looked at director with a cold expression, "How about this, you bring me to the Law Enforcement Office right now." "Right now?" The bureau director glanced at his watch, his face was filled with discomfort, "They already went home by now, even if you go there, you won't meet anyone!" Gu Hai smiled faintly, "They went home already? Law Enforcement Officers still have specific working hours?" "Of course." The director forced a smile, "Law Enforcement Officer is also a profession, they also need to follow the established rules and schedules, right?" "Then, what time do they start working in the morning?" "They start at 9 AM." "But, they smashed my aunt's stall at 6 AM." The bureau director couldn't say anything, his throat frozen. "All of them came simultaneously, you see, is this the way they enforce the law?" The director had just ended his formal talk with Gu Hai, then he immediately turned his head towards four men and scolded angrily, every unpleasant words and curses were spoken out. Gu Hai indifferently swept a glance at these men, he only said four words. "One person is missing." The director's cold sweat flowed down, the last remaining person was the most ferocious officer with the crew-cut hair, he was the director's blood-related nephew. "Do you perhaps remember incorrectly? Only these four men were on duty." Upon hearing these words, the four officers secretly gritted their teeth. "If I manage to uncover one more person and let him bear all the blame, will you allow it?" The director's mouth opened, then closed repeatedly. In the end, with a long and deep sigh, he walked outside to make a phone call.
238
你丫上瘾了? After a while, that aggresive and arrogant officer with crewcut hair was also summoned, once he saw Gu Hai, he became dumbfounded, he didn't expect that a person with such background, actually went to that place and had breakfast! That morning, there was still sheer hostility coming out from these men, now everyone is completely listless, they continuously gazed at the director, hoping that he could protect them. Gu Hai took out a cigarette, and held it on the edge of his mouth, the director immediately bowed his body to light Gu Hai's cigaratte. Once they saw the director's behavior, the short-haired officer knew that he had disclosed a huge basket. [1]. "How about this, I will give them penalty. This money can be used to cover your aunt's medical fees and to rebuild the stall, is it okay? " "Don't trouble yourself like that!" Gu Hai flicked his cigarette several time, "Since my aunt set up a stall, which is subjected within your scope of supervision, to prevent trouble in the near future, I decide to find a proper shop for my Aunt to run her business." The director's face changed, he forced himself to agree, "Yes yes yes, there is still a good shop, this...... Thinking about this shop will give you a lot of trouble, right? How about this, I will find one for you." "No need, I'm interested in one particular shop." Gu Hai stubbed his cigarette, then he smiled carefreely, "That shop on the corner of Xin Jie Kou [2] is not bad, can you discuss with the people there, to move my Aunt's stall there? The director's face finally turned ugly to a certain degree, Gu Hai obviously came prepared, that shop is managed by his brother-in-law, because of the golden [3] location, they've earned a full big pot [4] these few years. Supposed if the shop was truly given to other people, isn't it equal to 'tearing his own flesh'? But if he didn't hand it over, what else could he do? This is the man who can offend him this much? "Alright, I will settle this matter as soon as possible." Gu Hai stood up, walked to the door, but he suddenly stopped again. These men were just about to heave a sigh of relief, yet seeing Gu Hai walking back, their faces went taut once again. "I think... The five of you are not wrong." Gu Hai measured these five officers with his eyes, he sarcastically praised them, "Destroying a stall early in the morning at 6 AM, very hardworking indeed!"
239
Are you Addicted? These five men looked at each other, they were nearly thirty years old already, yet they couldn't say anything as they were intimidated by this seventeen years old young lad. "How about this, I will give you a part time job! Before long, my aunt's shop will start to operate, since it's selling breakfast and it's doesn't disturb your working hours, you guys should come to work as temporary waiters? I see that your hands and feet are really agile, how can such a good job opportunity given to other people?" The five men's faces turned purple. Gu Hai's tone dropped to an extent, "So, you're not willing?" "It's not like that." One short man among them opened his mouth first, "We are willing to do volunteer work without wages." Gu Hai put on a fake smile, "I'm terribly sorry for troubling you!" "There's no need to feel like that." The director interrupted from aside, "Let them help. If the manpower is not enough, I'll help you to find more. You must bring my nephew with you, he was a waiter in the past, he's very experienced." The short-haired officer with a bitter face glanced at the director, "Uncle~" The director gave him a very fierce look, you ventured into a huge disaster, yet you still have the nerve to call me Uncle? Hurry and take this opportunity to atone yourself! When Gu Hai walked swiftly towards the door, he was attracted by a random bark of a dog. "Hey! This Tibetan Mastiff [5] isn't bad, did you raise this one?" Gu Hai turned his head towards the director. The director's mouth couldn't stop twitching, "Yes.... Someone gave it to me." "Good, let me take it home for few days?" "You mustn't trifle with this one!" The director agonized , "This dog is too ferocious, what would you do, if by any chance you are bitten by it?" "No problem, there is a dog expert in our house, the dog will not be ill-treated." Gu Hai smiled, pointing to a man beside him, "Mister, for inconveniencing you, please take this dog to my home!" The director grabbed Gu Hai's arm, he hadn't said anything yet, but Gu Hai had already patted him on the shoulder. "Thanks!"
240
你丫上瘾了? The director cried in tearless grief [7], his precious dog, his conscience! Let a single breakfast stall tossed it all. _________________________ In Chinese, we can address the second person (you) as "你 (ni3) or 您 (nin2). 您 is the polite form of 你, it is used to address elder people or the people we respect, it is also used in formal meeting. In this chapter, Gu Hai and the director used a lot of 您 to address each other "politely".

Chapter 64: Why do I like you so much? Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------After two days, the bureau director personally went to the hospital to visit Aunt Zou. "Madam, I've come to see you, I'm terribly sorry regarding the matter two days ago, I've already scolded those people thoroughly, I've also given them a penalty, please show mercy and forgive us." Aunt Zou blinked in confusion, a small stall being wrecked is a common thing, yet she had never seen a bureau director apologize personally like this. "Madam, there is fifty-thousand Yuan inside here, the money for the medical fees is also inside, by all means, please accept this." "This...." Aunt Zou wanted to say, the hospital bills and the medicines altogether won't even amount to fifty
thousand Yuan! "Of course we will accept it!" Gu Hai immediately took the brown paper bag, and put it besides Aunt Zou's pillow, "You should take this, you don't have to be all polite with them." "Yes, yes..." The director bowed unctuously, "I'm terribly sorry about your stall, we've already prepared a new place for you near Xin Jie Kou, every room is newly renovated, the name board was already installed as well, it's called 'Aunt Zou's Snacks'. Please confirm the date of your discharge from the hospital, and when that day comes, we will immediately pick a date for the grand opening of your restaurant." Aunt Zou felt like she was dreaming, her burnt leg, is it worth that much? Bai Han Qi asked from the sides, "But later once we own the store, don't we have to pay for the tax and security fees, too?" "You don't have to worry about it, we've already arranged everything." Aunt Zou's expression became even more incredulous, she looked at Bai Han Qi, then she shifted her gaze towards Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai, who were standing beside him. She felt uneasy and uncomfortable due to the series of fortunate events that keep on coming, as if it was neatly arranged. "I'm afraid I won't be able to manage it well!" "Don't worry, someone will be helping you to manage the shop for the first two months, if you have something that you don't understand then feel free to ask her. As for the waiter...." The bureau director took a quick glance at Gu Hai, "For the time being, we have prepared five persons, wait until the business gets better, then we will find more." "It's enough, it's enough." Aunt Zou was too excited that she didn't know what to say anymore, she clenched and unclenched both of her hands repeatedly underneath. Previously, when she managed that little stall all by herself, it was very busy. It was hard and tiring for her as well, her son has to go to school, the whole family
242
你丫上瘾了? relies on her alone, she really couldn't afford to hire other people, she really wished that she had superhuman power. After she finished her busy works each day, she couldn't even straighten her waist up. The bureau director and Gu Hai exchanged a few words of greetings, then he took heavy steps and left. After the bureau director left, Aunt Zou was unable to hold herself back, she directly opened the paper bag, and after she took a quick glimpse, she was very shocked. "It's really money, there's not even one blank paper." Bai Luo Yin didn't know whether he should laugh or cry, "Aunt Zou, didn't he say that there is fiftythousand Yuan inside?" "Actually, I couldn't believe it at first." Aunt Zou sighed, full of emotion, "This fifty-thousand Yuan, didn't it come too easy? Even if I worked for a whole year, I won't be able to make this much! Say, I got a really good luck this time, could it be that I'm going to meet a huge disaster after this?!" Gu Hai at the side was so happy, "Auntie, you deserve this, after all, they are part of the law enforcement, yet they accidentally injure people, it's good enough that we didn't investigate their criminal responsibility. It's really appropriate for you to take this money, there's no need to be modest with them." Aunt Zou's tears fell down immediately, it's just yesterday that she had to experience such a horrendous torment, the stall was smashed, she couldn't afford to see the doctor, and her son has to go to school, her anxious mind felt like it's going to explode....... She didn't expect that everything would be resolved today. Hence, this is a blessing in disguise, she's so happy that she didn't know how to express her feelings. ...... After they went back home, the two people sat on the roof, quietly listening to the sound of barking dog on the yard. The fallen leaves of late autumn had already covered the ground, wherever the eyes go, there will only be the melancholic thoughts of autumn, quiet and calm, graceful and subdued, and the faint sorrow..... "About Aunt Zou's accident, thank you." Bai Luo Yin was somewhat awkward when he started to talk. Gu Hai hit Bai Luo Yin's forehead lightly, "Are you stupid? She is also my aunt." Bai Luo Yin went silent for quite a while, then he asked Gu Hai, "Why aren't you going back to your own home?" "I fought with my dad, I don't want to go back." "Then, you can just continue to live here." Gu Hai was surprised inside, he looked at Bai Luo Yin in the eyes, there is a deep affection and emotion within. "Although our home is a little bit shabby, but everyone treats you genuinely and sincerely. Ever since you came here, my father cooks more carefully compared to before. I can see it, he is very fond of you, and my grandma likes you even more..." "How about you?" Gu Hai suddenly blurted a question. Bai Luo Yin was dumbfounded after he heard this question.
243
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai observed Bai Luo Yin's expression carefully. He realized that he had accidentally asked that question, as a result, he actually become so nervous because he really wanted to know Bai Luo Yin's answer. However, the way his heart is pounding hardly right now, why is it more intense than a love confession? "What do you think?" Bai Luo Yin replied him with another question. Gu Hai embraced Bai Luo Yin with one arm, shamelessly sticking his face to Bai Luo Yin, beard stubbles against beard stubbles, a surge of youthful turmoil slowly spreading out from their innermost being. "I think you really cherish me." Bai Luo Yin couldn't help but smile. When Gu Hai noticed the corners of Bai Luo Yin's lips twitching, he felt really satisfied, his warm cheeks cancelled out the chilly autumn wind. Gu Hai only wore a thin piece of shirt, yet his body and his heart felt burning hot. There is one kind of weird feeling, mysteriously flowing out from the bottom of his heart, overflowing just like spring grasses breaking through the ground, the branches sprouting tenderly. There's a little bit of nervous throbbing, a little bit of restlessness, it itches and tickles, but it's very comfortable that it soften the bones, so comfortable that he forget that the time is still flowing..... "Bai Luo Yin." "Hm?" Bai Luo Yin turned his head towards Gu Hai, the distance between them was less than an inch, the tip of their nose nearly touching each other. "Say... Why do I like you so much?" No one knew what happened to the Tibetan Mastiff on the yard, as he suddenly barked loudly several times, drowning Gu Hai's nonsensical talk. "What did you just say?" Bai Luo Yin asked him loudly. "Never mind." Gu Hai turned his head to another direction, pretending to look at the eaves of the neighboring house. Bai Luo Yin didn't ask anymore. Nevertheless, Gu Hai replied inside his heart, I fucking like you, I like you so much that I can't stand it
anymore.

Chapter 65: Do you think it's possible? Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Inside the private room of a high-class nightclub in Sanlitun, Gu Hai brought Bai Luo Yin to see his buddies, whom he hadn't seen for so many days. "This is my new friend from school, his name is Bai Luo Yin." Zhou Si Hu laughed happily while patting Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, "Bro, you're so handsome!" Gu Hai pointed his finger at Li Shuo, "His name is Li Shuo." Li Shuo raised his glass and gave Bai Luo Yin a toast. "My name is Zhou Si Hu." Bai Luo Yin smiled at him. The four young people were sitting together while chatting joyously, all of them were youngsters with similar age, even if they have different family backgrounds, but their hobbies and preferences are pretty much the same. They talked about their chaotic school life to their favorite car brands, after the automotive talks finished they ought to start talking about girls, after that they simply have a mutual and tacit understanding about those kind of vulgar matters. Li Shuo reached Bai Luo Yin's shoulder and asked, "Da Hai really didn't get it on with another girl at your school?" Bai Luo Yin told the truth, "Nope." "What did I tell you?" Zhou Si Hu gave a sincere and trusting look, "Da Hai's unwavering loyalty to Jin Lu Lu is really second to none, it's simply formidable!" At first, Li Shuo believed that the reason why Gu Hai didn't show his face much lately, was because of a new girlfriend, so when he heard Bai Luo Yin's statement, it means that Gu Hai is still committed to his long-distance relationship. Li Shuo really admired Gu Hai somehow, other people would've changed their pretty girlfriend seven to eight times already, but he is still together with such a fierce woman. "Hey, do you know Jin Lu Lu?" Zhou Si Hu nudged Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin nodded, "Yes, I met her once." "I'm telling you this, the way Da Hai acts around Jin Lu Lu, is truly flawless. You haven't seen them together, if you see them, you'll definitely think that it wasn't Da Hai."
Indeed, I feel that it isn't like Gu Hai, but I don't think the way he treated Jin Lu Lu is really that special? Zhou Si Hu's mouth kept on babbling nonstop, just like a machine gun, he poured out what's inside his mind, he really wanted to tell Bai Luo Yin everything that made him became annoyed with Gu Hai. "Let me tell you, don't look at his usual cold expression that he wore most of the time, once he sees Jin Lu Lu, the laugh lines on his face won't disappear for 3 days. Every time we talked, it's always about Jin Lu Lu, and we would listen to him until our ears were about to go deaf. Usually, if we want to ask
245
Are you Addicted? something from him, we have to find Jin Lu Lu first, once Jin Lu Lu opens her mouth, there's nothing that Da Hai wouldn't do....." Zhou Si Hu talked about many things repetitively, Bai Luo Yin only replied with one sentence. "Isn't Gu Hai just like that?" "Eh?" Zhou Si Hu had yet to react, but Gu Hai had already came over, he put his hand on Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, there's a hint of slyness in his smile. "What are you guys talking about?" Bai Luo Yin drank a mouthful of beer and answered him indifferently, "We're not talking about anything." Gu Hai handed a glass full of wine to Bai Luo Yin's hand, "Try this. How does it taste?" Bai Luo Yin sucked a mouthful with the straw, he furrowed his eyebrows lightly, after he swallowed it he felt a slightly smoky taste. "It makes me choke a bit when I drink it." Gu Hai moved the glass to his side, without changing the straw, he directly drank from the very same straw that Bai Luo Yin had just used. He even looked very pleased with himself when he drank, as if the taste of the wine had become completely different. "I think the taste is pretty good!" Li Shuo was stunned, he nudged Zhou Si Hu. "Didn't Da Hai never drink from the stuff that someone else has drunk before?" Zhou Si Hu forced a smile and said, "You knew it too that meeting with Da Hai this time, how hard his life is right now, most likely his living condition forced him to do so." "......" The exciting music outside stimulated the young people's sensitive eardrums, the four men went out from the private room and sat on the bar, enjoying the lively atmosphere. The men and women on the dance floor swayed their bodies around crazily, under the flickering lights is one lonesome face. Li Shuo poked Bai Luo Yin, and then he asked, "Do you have a girlfriend?" "Yes, but we broke up." Li Shuo laughed, "That girl across you has been staring at you for quite a long time." Bai Luo Yin didn't even lift his head, he asked Li Shuo a rather personal question. "Gu Hai...... Does he often jerk off with you guys in the past?" This question rendered Li Shuo speechless for quite a long time. "Wait for a while...." Li Shuo passed Bai Luo Yin and leaned in front of Gu Hai, he stroke Gu Hai's inner thigh ambiguously. As a result, Gu Hai's face darkened immediately, "Get lost!" Li Shuo went back, his eyes hinted on Bai Luo Yin, "Do you think it's possible?" When Bai Luo Yin saw Gu Hai's reaction, he knew the answer already.
246
你丫上瘾了? Li Shuo continued, "Da Hai hates it the most when other people touch him, if what you've just said happened for real, what you'll see right now would be both of our corpses...." "......"

Chapter 66: Not as Good as a Dog.
Back again with another chapter! (๑✪ω✪๑) My daily life has turned into: work, translate, sleep, then work, translate, sleep again lol Its kind of fun though XD and i really hope you guys would enjoy this chapter (〃 >ω<〃)♡
----------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------Before sleeping, Bai Luo Yin intentionally used a blanket to wrap his whole body tightly, just like a cocoon, both sides of the quilt were held down by Bai Luo Yin's body, it left no space for loopholes. Just as Bai Luo Yin had expected, Gu Hai extended his legs and began to explore the blanket that covered Bai Luo Yin's body, searching for any gaps for him to insert his leg inside. However, it's a pity that Bai Luo Yin wrapped himself very tightly, hence Gu Hai's hard effort turned out to be futile. "How can you sleep so uncomfortably like this? Come, let brother help you to loosen it up a bit." Gu Hai shamelessly moved closer to Bai Luo Yin. "Leave me alone." Gu Hai's feet were still searching for the loopholes in Bai Luo Yin's blanket without giving up. Bai Luo Yin became annoyed, both of Gu Hai's feet are just like a worm, they keep on wriggling on top of Bai Luo Yin's blanket without stopping, sometime fast, sometime slow, sometime light, sometime heavy, it made him terribly upset. "What do you want? If you're not going to sleep, just scram!" Gu Hai's pupil flashed with unrestrained evil, "I think your blanket is not warm enough." "Whether my blanket is warm or not, does it have anything to do with you?" "I can warm you up!" Gu Hai spoke while throwing himself on top of Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin took a deep breath, angry and annoyed, "Why are you doing this every single night? Are you nuts? Can't you sleep properly, even just for one night? I'm really tired today, tomorrow is weekend, you... Eh....." Gu Hai bit Bai Luo Yin's sensual chin. "You!!!!!....." Both of Bai Luo Yin's hands grabbed Gu Hai's hair. Gu Hai didn't care about his image at all, he took that chance to lift Bai Luo Yin's quilt up, stretched his hands out, then suddenly pull Bai Luo Yin into his embrace, he felt satisfied once Bai Luo Yin in his arms, his saliva/drool flowing rapidly into the floor. "Yin Zi~~~" He dragged the last syllable until ten meters long.
248
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin was completely at the end of his ropes when dealing with Gu Hai, how can there be someone so shameless like him? Say, if you are really aggravated with him, that you used your whole strength to resist him, yet he doesn't give a damn about it, and what's more his teasing becomes even worse instead. If he only continue to endure in silence like this, when will it end? Does this kind of person has any self-awareness? Gu Hai's hands went inside Bai Luo Yin's pajamas trouser, slowly exploring it. This time, Bai Luo Yin replied harshly, "Do you think what you're doing is normal?" "What's strange about this?" Gu Hai temporarily pulled his hand back, giving a whole-heartedly loyal and sincere expression, "This is my bad habit, I like to get close to my friends that I like, you saw Li Shuo today, right? Usually we stick together, and every time I touch him, he would be docile, but why is it when it comes to you, it's so hard?" Bai Luo Yin felt so ashamed because of Gu Hai's shameless boasting. "Have you had enough? Li Shuo told me today that he absolutely never engaged in those kinds of thing with you before." "......" Gu Hai was startled for a moment, but he was still as stubborn as before, "He was just too embarrassed to admit it. He's just like me, we're both thin-skinned." Bai Luo Yin cupped one fist in his other hand, giving Gu Hai a gesture of admiration and respect, then he kicked Gu Hai out from his blanket. Gu Hai didn't immediately make his way into the blanket again, he stared at the ceiling instead, pondering deeply. "Say... why did you suddenly ask Li Shuo that kind of thing?" Bai Luo Yin didn't speak. Gu Hai made a speculation by himself, "Are you saying that you really want to try it with me, but you are worried, so you went to Li Shuo to seek for a peace of mind?" Bai Luo Yin raised his eyebrows, "Say, why is A Lang barking so loudly today? It's not like usual, I'll go out to check on him." Gu Hai, "........" "A Lang, A Lang." Bai Luo Yin called gently. A Lang's barks became louder, it really scared other people, Bai Luo Yin turned on a flashlight to check on him, then he found out that A Lang's paws was stuck between the iron pillars of the cage. Bai Luo Yin carefully pulled it out, then stroked A Lang's head, soon he stopped barking, he lay on the cage entrance while groaning. Bai Luo Yin found out a blood stain on A Lang's mouth. Most likely, it was because when he couldn't take out his paws from between the iron pillars, he used his mouth to bite the pillars. Bai Luo Yin felt sorry for A Lang, so he placed a kiss on A Lang's mouth. Gu Hai stood in the middle of bleak autumn wind, in tears, they got along for so many days, but he's still not as good as a dog! After Bai Luo Yin went back to his room, Gu Hai was sitting on the bed, constantly drawing deep breaths. "It seems like the corner of my mouth has become swollen. It really hurts."
249
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin snapped his fingers, "Wait here, I have an ointment in my home." "Do you still need to use ointment?" Gu Hai intentionally hinted on Bai Luo Yin.
Of course you need to use ointment, Bai Luo Yin sincerely held the ointment tube, he personally applied a little bit of the ointment cream on the swab, then he applied it on Gu Hai's mouth, his movements were very careful. Although he didn't get a kiss, but Bai Luo Yin still took care of Gu Hai like this, it made Gu Hai's heart became somewhat excited.
Obviously, you could just hand the cotton swab to me and let me do it myself, yet you still insist to do it by yourself, you really cherish me that much, huh? When he felt the ointment cream on his hand, it felt so cool and refreshing, the comfortable feeling penetrates deeply into his heart. "What ointment is this? The effects can be felt right away." "Hemorrhoid cream." Bai Luo Yin answered calmly. Gu Hai: ".....!!!!!" Bai Luo Yin restrained Gu Hai's trembling shoulders, comforting him patiently, "It's okay, this ointment can be applied anywhere, the last time when my mouth was swollen, I applied this too, and it worked very well." "What if there's nothing wrong with me? Are there any side effects?" Bai Luo Yin's hand paused, "Side effects? Maybe one or two hemorrhoids will appear." Gu Hai's face seems to fuse together with the pitch-black night sky, except for his bared white teeth, he couldn't be seen. .......

Chapter 67: Kill me if you can. Translator: grantye Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The first time Bai Luo Yin came to Gu Hai rented room, he discovered that Gu Hai's room was very neat, at least it's much tidier compared to his bedroom. "Why is your broken cellphone still here?" Bai Luo Yin picked up an old cellphone on the windowsill. Gu Hai was tidying things up, he opened his mouth to reply without thinking, "Forgot to throw it away." Bai Luo Yin walked outside the boarding house. He went to his granduncle's house to take a screwdriver and tweezers, then sat on a seat made of rock and started to get busy. In less than half an hour, Bai Luo Yin disassembled the phone and fixed it, wiped the screen, then returned to the rented room to hand the phone over to Gu Hai. "Try it." Gu Hai had some doubts, he took the cell phone then tried it. He turned it on normally, the text messages worked normally, telephone call had a slight noise, but it didn't affect the normal function of the phone. "Awesome!" Gu Hai's eyes showed astonishment, "It was broken already and yet it can be repaired again? "It's not a big deal, this kind of old device is generally very durable." Gu Hai noticed Bai Luo Yin's intelligence at these kind of things, and once again, his feeling of adoration towards Bai Luo Yin grew somewhat stronger. "Do we need to pack all these things?" Bai Luo Yin pointed at the junks on the writing desk. Gu Hai straightened his waist and glanced at him, "It's up to you, just take the items you consider useful." Bai Luo Yin collected the functional items and loaded them in the bag, while he was loading the items, he saw some sheets of paper that are sticked together on top of the writing desk. If he never saw it, he wouldn't get angry. But now that he had seen it, he wished he could peel Gu Hai alive, on the top of the paper was his essay, every single sheet, all of them were taken away by Gu Hai, this guy is way too awful! 251
Are you Addicted? Once Gu Hai noticed Bai Luo Yin's reaction, without feeling any shame, he even took out more sheets of paper from the drawer, showing them off in front of Bai Luo Yin's face. "Look, is my handwriting similar to yours?" Bai Luo Yin glared at Gu Hai angrily, "Why don't tell me about your handwriting practice, huh! Just because of these essays, now the Chinese Literature teacher ignore me!" "Then, you can also ignore her!" "The one I should be ignoring is you." Bai Luo Yin gnashed his teeth [1]. "You dare to ignore me? Just try." Gu Hai's strict gaze swept towards Bai Luo Yin's face. Bai Luo Yin didn't show any weakness, he fearlessly stared at Gu Hai face to face, after five seconds, Gu Hai whooshed his face away [2]. "This one... Look at my handwriting, does it actually improve?" In fact, even without asking Bai Luo Yin, Gu Hai wanted to say that his current handwriting had become better compared to the moment when school started, after seeing Gu Hai's urgent need to hear his approval, Bai Luo Yin suddenly didn't want to speak anymore. "Why don't you say anything? Is it actually good or bad?" Gu Hai sharpened his fang in his mind, if you dare to say it's not good, I'll kick your ass! Bai Luo Yin arrogantly and delicately shot Gu Hai a glance, faintly replied a sentence, "Not bad!" This "Not bad" sentence, simply pleased Gu Hai to the utmost satisfaction, Bai Luo Yin's one sentence compliment really meant a lot for him! Gu Hai felt like he had drunk ten bottles of Red Bull, all his entire body from head to toe brimmed with energy, as if he could lift this house then run two laps in the yard. Bai Luo Yin was amused by Gu Hai's smug look. Once Bai Luo Yin smiled, Gu Hai's eye straightened. Jin Lulu calmed her face while standing at the door, that harmonious and gleeful scene she clearly saw just now, made her aware that being with Gu Hai all these three years, she'd never seen Gu Hai with that kind of glance. Before, those brothers of Gu Hai said that Gu Hai could only wear his second facial expression when he was with Jin Lu Lu. Now, Jin Lu Lu discovered that Gu Hai had a third facial expression, this kind of
252
你丫上瘾了? expression is the one she has never seen before, it's very charming yet it hurts her very much. All girls are very sensitive, don't even mention brothers, if her boyfriend pampered a dog, she can't even bear to watch it. Bai Luo Yin saw Jin Lulu first, then poked Gu Hai, hinting at him to look at the door. Gu Hai was somewhat surprised, "Why are you here?" Jin Lulu found that Gu Hai's third facial expression only lasted for a fleeting moment, when he turned his sight to her, the familiar look returned. "You're asking why I'm here? Today is weekend." Gu Hai seemed as if he couldn't give any response, he felt that every week passed so fast, in a blink of an eye, weekend came already. Previously, he felt that the weekdays were extremely hard to bear, but now he doesn't even see the date anymore, as if every day is identical to him. "I'm moving right now! And I don't have a cellphone, so I couldn't get in touch with you." Jin Lulu dangled the cellphone that she took from the writing desk, "What is this?" "Isn't this cellphone already broken long ago?" Gu Hai barely finished his talk when the cellphone suddenly rang, Jin Lulu pressed the phone with a cold face, then both cell phones connected. Bang! Jin Lulu suddenly threw the phone to the ground, the intact phone split into pieces, the broken pieces of the screen were scattered all over the place! Gu Hai's face changed, from shocked to angry then unable to control himself, all this happened in a split second, he strode towards Jin Lulu, grasped her shoulder, pressed her towards the corner of the room, then questioned her very fiercely. "Who allowed you to break it?" Jin Lulu held his tears, but her tone showed absolutely no hint of conceding. "How many cellphones have we broke during our fights? Just because of that lousy cellphone, you become hostile towards me?" Gu Hai's eyes reddened because of the wrath, let alone himself. "Yin Zi just repaired this phone, who the fuck allow you to throw it?" "I let myself threw it!! So what if he's the one who repaired it?" 253
Are you Addicted? Jin Lulu suddenly trampled on the phone's case on the ground several times, the sound of shattering cruelly irritated both of Gu Hai's eardrums. "I threw it already, I trampled it already. Just kill me if you can!" _________________________ [1] 'Gnashed his teeth': 咬牙切齿 is a Chinese idiom, which means to bite your teeth together and grind them. "Gnashing teeth" is used to describe angry look. [2] 'whooshed': CJD wrote嗖 (sou1) which can be translated literally into whooshing, which means to move quickly with a rushing sound. Actually, this word translation can be substituted to another word, but I found this whooshing depiction really funny.

Chapter 68: An Unpleasant Feeling. Sienna7455: Hi everyone! I'm sorry for the long wait, chapter 68 is quite long. It took me some time to translate and review my translation. To tell you the truth, I'm pretty distracted (and hooked) by another new BL series (I hope that it doesn't break my heart this time). So yeah, I'm kinda in a daze this week (Please forgive me TT__TT). Lastly, thanks for waiting patiently. Here's chapter 68! Happy reading~
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Sienna7455 Proofreader: grantye ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the middle of the dangerous clash, a hand stretched out and grasped Gu Hai's arm, whose nerves were pulsating madly. "Stop it, it's just a cellphone, right?" Bai Luo Yin's voice was extremely flat, it didn't take much strength to block Gu Hai's hand, but being confronted in this kind of slow-moving situation, Gu Hai's cruel and fierce thoughts slowly calmed down, his hand that was clasping Jin Lu Lu's shoulder gradually relaxed. "Gu Hai, you're not human!" Jin Lu Lu screamed and pushed Gu Hai away. She kicked the door open and charged out from the compound house [1]. Gu Hai stood still at his current place, not stirring at all. Bai Luo Yin abruptly hit his shoulder, "You idiot, you still aren't chasing her?!" "Why do I have to chase after her?" Gu Hai's reddened orbs were fixed upon Bai Luo Yin. "No matter what, she's still a girl who's come from far away to find you. No matter what, you've been together with her for three years. No matter what, you've slept with her." Gu Hai kept silent. Bai Luo Yin grabbed Gu Hai's collar, yelling: "Damn it, are you a man or not?" Gu Hai caught Bai Luo Yin's hand, his voice was peaceful and calm, yet it concealed a turbulent wave of surging feelings. "Yin Zi, you know right, at this moment I'm only willing to listen to your words. Do you really want me to go?" 255
Are you Addicted? During this brief moment, Bai Luo Yin's heart suddenly lost its balance, as if a mechanical consciousness completely manipulated his own lips. "Yes, you absolutely have to go, when a girl's emotions go out of control, it can easily result in a bad things." Gu Hai turned his body and exited the door. Bai Luo Yin's tall and straight stature went numb in an instant, he bent his waist then tidied up the mess on the floor. When Gu Hai walked out, Jin Lu Lu had already run to another alley. After Gu Hai saw a glimpse of her shadow, he directly took a large stride to chase her. Not even a moment had passed and Gu Hai had already caught up with Jin Lu Lu's pace. He saw her heading to a tree root, crouched at the ground and started to bawl. This is the first time Gu Hai sees Jin Lu Lu behaving like this. He didn't understand, the reason of the rift between both of them, is it because of Jin Lu Lu or is it because of himself? He had previously experienced the period of falling passionately in love, the phase of giving each other the cold shoulder, and the quarrelling period... These kinds of patterns won't stop alternating with each other, but regardless of the period they find themselves in, he wouldn't feel like there's something wrong with the relationship itself. Right now, Gu Hai suddenly felt rather tired and weary, he doesn't know whether he's already tired with this relationship or with the things he would do for Jin Lu Lu. Only when Jin Lu Lu saw Gu Hai, that the sounds of weeping stopped. Even though she is the one at a disadvantage in this relationship, but she's also unwilling to let Gu Hai see her moment of weakness, not even once. "Gu Hai, this is the first time you chase after me when we fought." Gu Hai quietly watched Jin Lu Lu's reddened, crying eyes, behind her lean and stubborn face is actually is actually a fragile lip, to his own surprise, his heart actually felt anguish. Just as Zhou Shi Hu said previously, she's his cherished girlfriend for three years, three years is not a short time, any three-year relationship can create a genuine affection. "Next time, don't do this again." Gu Hai said. Jin Lu Lu suddenly hugged Gu Hai tightly while sobbing loudly. She thought that both of them were already over, she always has this notion after every time they had a row. Hence, she was always in a state of anxiety, although she felt that she lost her face, but 256
你丫上瘾了? she virtuously faced him to reconcile. When Gu Hai took the initiative, it shows his softer side and Jin Lu Lu felt really grateful, as if she had received the greatest grace. She won't grudge about their relationship problems anymore, she also realized that she had gone overboard just now. Both of them stood beneath of the tree roots [2] for a very long time, talking about their previous matters, reminiscing about their memories together. A thing they definitely do after every time they quarreled, after that they make up. "I won't annoy you, I'll never annoy you again." Jin Lu Lu wiped her tears, pulling Gu Hai's hand and said, "Let's go, I'll help you move." When they returned to the compound house, the landlord told them that Bai Luo Yin had already carried his things away in advance. Gu Hai stared at the empty room as well as the tidy and clean floor, his heart churned over. He didn't know how many times did Bai Luo Yin go back and forth to move his things, how long he got busied by this... Only at this moment that Jin Lu Lu remembered to ask, "Where are you actually moving to?" "Yin Zi's house, I've been staying at his home these days." Jin Lu Lu's complexion turned somewhat fishy, but since both of them had just reconciled with each other, so she didn't continue to pester him about this matter anymore. When they were eating, Jin Lu Lu started to talk endlessly about her matters at school, about the bitchy girl that she put in order, about an insect that appeared in the canteen, about how she got bargained a discount from the food vendor, about the unusual oldfashioned clothes that her teacher wore for the entire day, about their awfully horrible custom-made batch of uniforms that were very unsightly...... Gu Hai stayed silent all the way, until a plate of smoked duck head was served, that he smiled and spoke up. "Yin Zi really loves to eat this." Gu Hai ruined Jin Lu Lu's extremely good mood. "Gu Hai, let me ask you something." Gu Hai lifted his eyes to reply lightly, "What?" "Don't you think the way you treat Bai Luo Yin is a little bit too good?" "What's your point asking this kind of question?" Gu Hai's face darkened. 257
Are you Addicted? Jin Lu Lu was fuming with anger, she grabbed a piece of duck head and placed it on her plate. Gu Hai felt somewhat weird while eating, he put his chopsticks down and spoke towards Jin Lu Lu: "What kind of man doesn't have a brother that he's extremely close with? Why do you always have to make it difficult for him? Let me tell you, you really don't understand Yin Zi. If you can understand him, you'll definitely be very fond of him. Don't look at his poor family conditions, he's really full of talent, his taste is also quite unique. Even though he doesn't like to smile, deep inside his bones, he's actually a passionate person. Sometimes, he wants to care for you, but he's too embarrassed to show it, so he does it secretly. Even if you see through his lies, he will still oppose you. He has a sharp tongue but a soft heart, his manner of speech doesn't spare anyone, but his heart is actually very kind. I eat and live for free at their house for such a long period of time, he always pretend to drive me off, but when I really leave and didn't return for half a day, he'll definitely feel uneasy and restless. Oh right I forgot to tell you, he's also exceptionally intelligent, he likes to tinker with a lot of things. Once, he changed the door in our class so that it couldn't be opened from the outside but it could be opened from the inside. That cellphone just now, it actually fell into the river, but he can still repair it..." Actually, Gu Hai only wanted to talk a few words, to lower Jin Lu Lu's worries down, who would expect that once he opens his mouth, he couldn't restrain himself. Once Jin Lu Lu heard this, she became even more jealous and furious, this was the first time Gu Hai ever spoke so many words in front of her, as far as to praise another person unexpectedly. Isn't it obvious that he only wanted to add more fuel to her ire? Gu Hai was completely oblivious, he believed that when he spoke delightfully and interestingly, other people would also become interested. Jin Lu Lu restrained her wrath with great difficulty, chewing the noodles in her mouth fiercely. The feeling of her superiority being stripped off by another person, is extremely unpleasant. So what if he's a man? Just because that he's a man, Jin Lu Lu felt that she shouldn't feel that way. Gu Hai, are you unable to differentiate who is more important? After the meal, a lot of Gu Hai's constrained feelings were finally relieved. When they settled for the bill, during the time that the cashier was counting the change, Gu Hai could still manage to turn around and say something to Jin Lu Lu, "Today, Yin Zi praised me, he said my handwriting has improved." Jin Lu Lu almost took the fortune tree on top of the reception desk and thrashed it to the floor. 258
你丫上瘾了? "Okay, everything's settled!! Take care!" For the entire afternoon, Gu Hai accompanied Jin Lu Lu in a shopping spree to all kinds of high-class places. Before he slept at night, Gu Hai felt his heart was empty, when he shut his eyes, the only thing running through his mind is Bai Luo Yin's countenance. He felt that the air he inhaled isn't incense, but rather drugs, slowly infiltrating into his innermost being. His train of thought started to become muddled again, his whole mind was in a mess. During the day, his mind was clear as the bustling downtown streets concealed his emotions. But now, his true emotions are revealed once more. A romantic movie was playing in the high-definition TV, Jin Lu Lu was watching while muttering to herself at the same time. "Is this girl too stupid or what? That guy is an idiot as well, why don't you speak up. He's really a spineless coward, I'm not watching anymore, let's sleep." After that, she hugged Gu Hai and squeezed herself into the blanket. The curtain of darkness fell gradually, Gu Hai slept with his head still in a daze. ※※※ "Da Hai, I've made a newly developed slingshot. Let's shoot a bird together!" Bai Luo Yin wiped his runny nose. Gu Hai was dumbfounded, in front of his eyes was a white and plump child, his big eyes were sparkling, his small mouth opened and closed, he looked very familiar... "Who are you?" "I'm Yin Zi!" Gu Hai was terrified, "Why have you shrunk into a little midget?" "Who are you calling a midget?" Bai Luo Yin placed his hands on his small waist, "Look at yourself, you're not even taller than me!" Gu Hai bowed down his head and looked at his corduroy trousers and his small cottonpadded shoes, whose size is less than thirty. His stretched his hands out and his plump arms looked like a piece of lotus root [3]. "What's going on?" Bai Luo Yin laughed, his cheeks were flushed, "We've already known each other since small." "Known each other since small?" Gu Hai pulled Bai Luo Yin's hand. 259
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin spoke with excitement, "That's right! We're childhood friends!" Childhood friends? That's great... Gu Hai squeezed Bai Luo Yin's cheeks. So, we've actually known each other since small, we've been together for so many years. This is truly an exciting thing. Starting from now on, I can always play with Bai Luo Yin until we grow up. Gu Hai was grinning as he held Bai Luo Yin tightly. Bai Luo Yin placed a kiss upon Gu Hai's cheek, then Gu Hai would kiss him back. After that, Bai Luo Yin kissed Gu Hai again, then Bai Luo Yin kissed again on the lips, and Gu Hai would return his kiss... While they were kissing each other, Gu Hai suddenly woke up. Inside the luxurious room of the hotel, the warm lamp still emitted its light faintly. Gu Hai sensed that his lips were a little moist, so he used his hand to touch it, his heart shuddered immediately afterwards. Yin Zi, did you kick the blanket to the floor again? _________________________ [1] 'compound house' is a house that refers to a cluster of buildings in an enclosure, where it is occupied by many families or households living together. It's similar to a boarding house. [2] 'stood beneath of the tree roots': most likely, the tree has hanging roots (example: willow tree), but it wasn't really specified in the novel. [3] 'lotus root': the outer appearance is similar to a potato, but lotus root has longer length.

Early morning, when Jin Lu Lu woke up, she found out that the person beside her was already gone. She got up then went down from the bed and searched for Gu Hai in every room. She finally found him on the balcony, don't know how long it has been for him, standing there alone while smoking. Jin Lu Lu yawned lazily, then walked toward Gu Hai and hugged his waist from behind. "Why did you wake up so early?" Gu Hai hummed lightly, then he extinguished the cigarette in his hand. Jin Lu Lu found the ashtray full of cigarette stubs, just like chunks of severed white chalks, it was a mess, portraying Gu Hai's mood perfectly. "You didn't sleep well last night?" "I slept really well." Gu Hai took Jin Lu Lu's hands off his waist, turned his body around, the areas surrounding his eyes were grey and pallid. "Pack up your things, I'll send you home." Jin Lu Lu's gaze was as hard as iron, it was fixed on Gu Hai for a quite while, then she opened her mouth and asked, "Why are you so impatient to send me away?" Gu hai didn't say anything, he just went back inside the house and put on a coat. 261
Are you Addicted? "Let's eat together, call Bai Luo Yin too. I broke the phone in front of him yesterday, I definitely left a very bad impression on him, so let's eat together, I want to restore his impression towards me." Gu Hai remained silent, Jin Lu Lu simply thought that it means Gu Hai has tacitly agreed. When both of them arrived at Bai Luo Yin's house, Bai Luo Yin had just woke up, he was squatting on the courtyard, brushing his teeth and washing his face. When Jin Lu Lu saw it, she couldn't help but to sigh, "Don't tell me... you're going to move here?" Gu Hai completely ignored Jin Lu Lu's words, his eyes were constantly fixed upon Bai Luo Yin, there was an indescribable feeling in his heart. "In this kind of cold weather, he's still using cold water to wash face?" Jin Lu Lu put on a conflicted expression, "They won't let you use cold water to wash your face too, right?" Gu Hai didn't say any word, he went straight into the courtyard, Jin Lu Lu only followed him from behind. When A Lang saw there was a stranger, he suddenly barked very loudly from the cage, it scared Jin Lu Lu so much that she immediately held Gu Hai's arm. "Damn, this kind of house but they're still able to raise a Tibetan Mastiff?" When Bai Luo Yin heard A Lang's barks, he lifted up his head, then he saw right exactly when Jin Lu Lu held Gu Hai's arm and entering his house. "Let's eat lunch together!" "Okay." Bai Luo Yin answered quickly, "I'll go inside and change my clothes." Soon after Bai Luo Yin entered his house, Gu Hai went inside too, leaving Jin Lu Lu strolling alone in the yard. "Hey, wait." Bai Luo Yin was about to put on his clothes, when he heard Gu Hai's voice he stopped. "What's wrong?" Gu Hai walked until he arrived in front of Bai Luo Yin, he held Bai Luo Yin's face with both of his hands, furrowed his eyebrows and said, "Why is there a small pimple on your head?" Bai Luo Yin didn't realize it, "Maybe it's because of the inflammation." 262
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai let out an evil smile, "Are you thinking about me?" "Go away! Go to hell!" Gu Hai's gloomy mood for more than ten hours suddenly cleared up this instant. ...... When they were eating lunch, Jin Lu Lu deliberately said to Bai Luo Yin, "Gu Hai treats you better than me." "Why do you think so?" Bai Luo Yin asked. Jin Lu Lu answered, half-serious and half-joking, "He always put on a straight face when he's with me, but whenever he's with you, he's smiling all the time." Gu Hai replied calmly, "You said it yourself, you feel more secure when I'm being cold." Jin Lu Lu obviously disagreed with Gu Hai's answer. Bai Luo Yin leisurely analyzed, "It's like this, every man would always have two sides of him, one with his girlfriend and another is with his buddies. In front of his girlfriend, because he wants to maintain his own charming image, he acts cool, if not, then how can he win your heart? It's different when he's with his buddies, he doesn't need to maintain his own image, his mood will be totally relaxed, he'll act foolishly and stupidly, so it made you think that we're closer." Jin Lu Lu finally smiled, "Look at him, he talks better than you." Gu Hai's girlfriend was boasting about another man, but Gu Hai wasn't even disturbed for a bit, on the contrary he felt really proud. When lunch almost finished, Jin Lu Lu suddenly said to Gu Hai, "Try to hit Bai Luo Yin." Gu Hai's face fell, "Why do I have to hit him?" "Nothing, I just want to see, aren't you two always fooling around with each other everyday?" "Are you crazy?" Gu Hai's voice became icy. Jin Lu Lu was actually joking, she just wanted to create a playful atmosphere, to test Gu Hai's feeling towards Bai Luo Yin, but Gu Hai's reaction stopped her from pretending any longer. "Gu Hai, I'm just joking, why are you so annoyed with me? Do you really hate it that much? He's already an adult, what's wrong with you hitting him just for a little bit? Just touch him lightly, can't you do it?"
263
Are you Addicted? "I can't!" Gu Hai stressed each word, "Don't even mention me, no one else could even think to touch him!" Jin Lu Lu suddenly threw her chopsticks, "Gu Hai, you disgust me!" "If you're disgusted, then just get lost!" Jin Lu Lu kicked her chair abruptly, then rushed out from the restaurant.

After Jin Lu Lu kicked the chair and left the restaurant, their surrounding suddenly fell into a deep silence. After a long time passed, Bai Luo Yin then asked Gu Hai, "Why did you make her angry?" Gu Hai's dark face brightened up, "Why do you say that i made her angry? Didn't you see how shameless she was? No need to indulge that bad habit of her, just let her go if she fucking wants to go!" "Both of you are really...." Bai Luo Yin felt helpless, "How did you two even got together in the first place?" Gu Hai was on the side, trying to contain his anger under control! He wasn't in the mood to answer that kind of question. Bai Luo Yin sighed, then he stirred the remaining noodles in his bowl, lightly said, "Okay, just calm down a bit for now, that's not a good thing if you're always fighting with each other." Gu Hai put the remaining cuttlefish ball on Bai Luo Yin's bowl, and then he finished his noodles cleanly. Both of them went out from the restaurant in silence. ...... After they arrived at home, Bai Luo Yin tossed a box to Gu Hai. "What is this?" Gu Hai was somewhat surprised. "Is this for me?" "What a nonsense! I gave it to you, if it isn't for you then who is it for?" 265
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai opened the box to look at it, then he saw a phone with the newest model on market, the model and appeareance of the phone were really Gu Hai's taste, he didn't even have to guess to know that this phone was chosen by Bai Luo Yin. There was an unspeakable feelings in Gu Hai's heart, when he saw Bai Luo Yin's figure moving around beside him, he didn't know how to express his feelings, he simply embraced him right away. "Yin Zi, you're too good to me." "Go hug my dad!" Bai Luo Yin halfheartedly pushed Gu Hai away, "It was his money, he was the one who really wanted to buy it for you, no matter how many times I stopped him." Gu Hai shouted straight away to Bai Han Qi outside the window. "Uncle, thank you!" "This kid, why do you thank me?" Bai Han Qi wiped the sweats on his forehead with his clothes. "If Yin Zi didn't go with me, I wouldn't know which phone I should buy. For me, if a phone can be used to call, and if it doesn't break down even after it fell down, that should be good enough already. But Yin Zi said, it won't do! He insisted to give you a full featured phone." Gu Hai felt like honey was flowing out from his heart. "You don't have to listen to Yin Zi, he didn't know what he was talking about!" Bai Luo Yin kicked Gu Hai's butt, "You dare to say that even after getting this phone?" Gu Hai happily looked at Bai Luo Yin, "Then how about you? You don't have a cell phone too....." "What would I use it for?" Bai Luo Yin gave a nonchalant expression, "I simply don't have anyone i want to contact, having a phone would be a waste." "You can contact me!" Gu Hai moved closer to Bai Luo Yin's front side. Bai Luo Yin grinded his teeth, "You always stick beside me for 24 hours everyday, do i still need phone to contact you?" Gu Hai laughed hollowly, "That's also true, but now I don't have anyone I want to contact too, thereby this phone is also a waste for me." "Don't!" Bai Luo Yin glanced at Gu Hai, "I want to use this phone to divert your attention from me!" Gu Hai's mouth moved closer to Bai Luo Yin's ears, his voice was deep, yet so charming. "Then won't you really hate this phone later?" 266
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin immediately shouted 'scram' five times in a row! Then he kicked Gu Hai out from the room. Gu Hai swayed around for a while outside, he saw Bai Hanqi was setting a ladder on the wall, he was puffing hard while trying to climb the ladder. "Uncle, why are you climbing so high?" "Two days ago it was raining, the roof leaked a bit, so the good dried grains got wet again, I'm going up to patch it." "Uncle, just go down, I'll go up." "How do you know how to do this kind of thing?" Bai Han Qi wiped his sweats, today is really a sunny day, the afternoon sun was shining upon them. "I really can do it, uncle, just come down." Between the talks, Gu Hai stepped on the windowsill, his hand grabbed the eaves, then he tumbled his body and jumped until he got on the roof, what was that ladder for then? When Bai Han Qi saw it, his eyes went stiff, he thought to himself, what did this kid just
do to go up? Just now he was still talking on the ground, how can he just flew to the roof in a short time? "Uncle, I'm here." In fact, when Bai Han Qi was young, his physical condition was excellent too, he didn't even need to do an extra efforts to climb up and down the roof, but now he's old, his limbs aren't agile anymore, he also has a little bit fear of height. "Can you really do it?" Bai Han Qi gave a doubtful expression. "Seeing you said those word, I....." Gu Hai wanted to say that he has done everything when he was in army before, but he was afraid that Bai Han Qi would ask a lot of things, so he didn't say anything else, he rather took the bucket from Bai Han Qi's hand, flattened the mud and the cement paste skillfully, although it wasn't as good as a bricklayer's works, but apparently it was done pretty well. Bai Luo Yin walked outside, then shouted towards the roof. "Dad, just go down, just let him do it, otherwise he would just be a freeloader at our house everyday!" "Right, uncle, just go down!" 267
Are you Addicted? Bai Han Qi smiled then he agreed, he carefully went to the eaves, then he stretched his leg out to reach the ladder. Gu Hai saw a phone poking out from Bai Han Qi's trousers pocket, it was a phone that had been used for many years, some of the coating paint on top has been scraped off. Once Gu Hai saw it, he just knew that phone is an imitation phone that has been bought from street vendors, with a price no more than 200 yuan. When he thought about his own phone, Gu Hai's heart felt really upset. Bai Luo Yin never talked about his family condition, just occassionally after they went drinking, then he would mention it once or twice. Bai Han Qi's wages is less than 5 thousands per month, and he has to feed the whole family, every month Bai Luo Yin's grandfather and grandmother has a fixed medical treatment expense too. These things cut down more than half of his income already, besides their own food and drink expenses, now they have to feed him too.... Even if Bai Han Qi didn't say it, Gu Hai knew it, he must be clenching his teeth to buy this phone.

Chapter 71: A Silent Night. Hi everyone! This is one lovely chapter, I'm squealing all the time while translating this one (//Д//).:*♥ Sadly they cut or changed some parts from this scene, but we can always leave it to imagination, right? (b≧∀≦)b Enjoy Gu Hai♡Bai Luo Yin's sweet night together (๑✪ω✪๑)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator : Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At night before going to bed, Gu Hai asked Bai Luo Yin: "Why didn't Uncle just open a shop together with Aunt Zou?" "Why should he open a shop together with Aunt Zou?" Bai Luo Yin replied with another question. "Just think about it, that's a golden opportunity, no rental fee, no need to pay tax, the waiters are all ready, this is a pure money-making business! If Aunt Zou is alone, she would have her hands full, supposed if Uncle went there to help her, it would mean that the shop belongs to both of them, and the pay would be better than the hardearned fixed salary from his current work." Bai Luo Yin heaved a sigh, "You thought really well, but my dad will definitely be unwilling to do so." "Why?" Gu Hai didn't understand. Bai Luo Yin glanced at Gu Hai, then he moved closer to his ear. Gu Hai felt really happy that he almost glued his entire body to Bai Luo Yin's. Bai Luo Yin lifted the blanket then covered both of their heads together. Their heads snuggled against one another, their foot got close to each other, they hid in the small space inside the blanket, whispering quietly. "What?" Gu Hai was dumbfounded, "Aunt Zou isn't a widow?" "She has a husband, he's working abroad." Gu Hai could feel every warm breath that Bai Luo Yin emitted upon his own face, causing his entire body turn feverish. "So you mean, they are afraid that people would gossip about them?" Bai Luo Yin hesitated for a moment, his shoulders slumped. 269
Are you Addicted? "I always think that Aunt Zou is deceiving my dad, I think she'd already divorced with her husband since long time ago. Just think about it, she already lived here for so many years, yet her husband never came back on New Year's Day or on any other festival, is it normal?" When Gu Hai saw Bai Luo Yin's expression during his ramblings, he felt like pulling at his small ears. "Are you listening to what I'm saying?" Bai Luo Yin suddenly hit Gu Hai's stomach. Gu Hai held Bai Luo Yin's hand, smiled, and then he was smiling when he spoke, "I heard it already, don't you want to say that Aunt Zou is a widow?" "Right, but my dad always denies it." "I think Uncle knows it clearly inside his heart." Gu Hai was talking while using his coarse fingers to caress Bai Luo Yin's palm, and the joints of his fingers... every single vein, every single loop and whorl on his fingers, Gu Hai touched them lightly with his fingertips, it seemed casual, but there was a hint of amusement. All of Bai Luo Yin's sensitive nerves on his palms were came into life, it made his arms felt numb. He wanted to open his mouth and scold Gu Hai, but Gu Hai suddenly stopped moving, he simply grasped Bai Luo Yin's hand tightly. "Your father is getting intimate with another woman, don't you feel upset?" "No, I even encouraged him to marry Aunt Zou." Bai Luo Yin answered with indifferent tone, "Since as long as I could remember, my dad has always been single, I can't let him live his life forever like this forever, right?" "You never thought about letting your dad and your mom get back together?" "Never." Bai Luo Yin was very determined, "I'd rather it to be Aunt Zou, I don't want my dad to suffer again." When Gu Hai heard this, his feelings was somewhat complicated. Besides him, Bai Luo Yin continued, "Actually, the reason why my dad doesn't want to help Aunt Zou is not entirely because he's afraid that people will gossip about them. Just think about this, that shop already belongs to Aunt Zou right now, dad would never put his pride aside to go and ask her for cooperation. We are all men, we understand this kind of feeling, if it's for other women, it's still possible, but for Aunt Zou, it's definitely impossible." "That's also true." Gu Hai seemed lost in his own thoughts. There was a silence under the blanket, then Bai Luo Yin lifted the blanket up and he breathed mouthfuls of air outside. 270
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai saw Bai Luo Yin's chest going up and down regularly, and the way he breathed deeply with closed eyes, Gu Hai's heart inadvertently began to beat faster. Bai Luo Yin opened his lips slightly, radiating a masculine charm. Gu Hai obviously knew that this is a man's lips, it definitely isn't as soft as a woman's. Nevertheless, Gu Hai felt like he really wanted to give it a kiss. He realized that his own thoughts are becoming more and more twisted, but he had no intention to correct it. He knew very clearly that he doesn't feel this way towards other guys, it's solely reserved for Bai Luo Yin alone. Maybe it's because he admires him too much, likes him too much, and cares about him too much, causing this small snowball of friendship began to roll, the more it rolls the bigger it gets, and eventually it crossed over the boundary line that Gu Hai could control. Yet he doesn't want to retrieve it back. He would rather enjoy this self-indulgent yet nervous kind of happiness. That night, the wind was strong, so Gu Hai went to close the window. Just as he reclined back on the bed, Bai Luo Yin suddenly turned his body over, his head was looking for the softest spot to lean on, before finally resting upon Gu Hai's shoulder. His warm cheeks were nestled closely on top of Gu Hai's left chest, his clean and tidy hair scattered around Gu Hai's neck, his arms hugged Gu Hai's stomach as he pleased, and he had a very satisfied expression upon his face. Gu Hai was caught off guard, he didn't dare to move his arm that was pressed by Bai Luo Yin's weight, fearing that once he moved, Bai Luo Yin would unconsciously turn his body away from him. Only when Bai Luo Yin's breaths had evened out that Gu Hai's stiff muscles could finally relax. He lowered his eyelids to look at the man in his embrace, his hand caressing Bai Luo Yin's cheeks gently, he was extremely careful, as if touching a rare and precious baby. Then he closed his eyes, quietly waiting for a good dream to come......

Chapter 72: Bai Han Qi is in a Good Luck. Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Mr. Bai, the factory director is looking for you." Bai Han Qi took his dustproof faceguard off, then entered the factory director's office with tired and sleepy posture. "Lao Bai, come, sit down." Bai Han Qi had no idea what had happened with the normally straight-faced director, but he spoke very politely today, not only that he pulled the chair for Bai Han Qi to sit, but he also poured a cup of tea for him. Bai Han Qi was bewildered, what does he want to do? "Lao Bai! Our factory has decided to dismiss you." Bai Han Qi's heart skipped for a moment, his face turned white, he suddenly understood why the director is acting differently from his normal behavior, it's simply because he wanted to fire him. Bai Han Qi's hand that was holding the cup trembled, he stood up and placed the cup back onto the desk, he was standing straight in front of the factory director, his face showing an offended expression. "Director, you know that my son is still in high school, this is exactly the time when I need money. I still have to support the whole family, not to mention there's also a monthly medical treatment fee...." "I know." The director interrupted Bai Han Qi, "If it isn't because of this, I'd really hate to let go of someone who has already worked here for more than ten years!" "Then, why did you fire me?" Bai Han Qi anxiously clenched his fist, "Aren't you just forcing my whole family towards a dead end?" "What do you mean by forcing you to a dead end?" Bai Han Qi's statement confused the director, "So, they haven't given you a call yet?" "Who?" Bai Han Qi was bewildered. The director scratched his head impatiently, "Seeing you like this, it means that you really haven't received a letter from them yet! How about this, I'll give them a call......." Just as he finished speaking, someone knocked on the door. 272
你丫上瘾了? The factory director went to open the door, he saw a man wearing an impeccable suit and directly greeted him with a smile. "Oh, hello. You are already here. I was just about to give you a call!" The man in suit only nodded while smiling, his gaze shifted to Bai Han Qi beside him, "This person is?" The director called Bai Han Qi right away, "This is Lao Bai, the person that you're looking for." The man immediately held out his hand. Bai Han Qi smiled apologetically, "There's dust all over my hand, it's all right." The man didn't force Bai Han Qi anymore, the director beside him took the initiative to introduce him. "Lao Bai, this is the Human Resources Manager from Tong Jie Refrigeration Equipment Manufacturing Company, his surname is Miao, you can address him as Manager Miao." Bai Han Qi nodded towards Manager Miao. The factory director poured a glass of water for Manager Miao as well, and then he excused himself, only Bai Han Qi and Manager Miao remained inside the office. "It's like this, our company would like to hire you to work as an engineer in our IT Department, the monthly salary after taxes is twenty thousand Yuan. There will be a paid vacation every month, the residential subsidy is five thousand Yuan, the transport allowance is two thousand Yuan, and the meal allowance is two thousand Yuan, and lastly, the year-end bonus is six months' worth of your salary. The working hour is eight hours a day, with double off days during festivals and holidays....." Bai Han Qi's ear went numb. "Manager Miao, your company is not printing counterfeit money, right?" When Bai Han Qi easily interrupted Manager Miao, who was talking to his heart content, the manager's heart felt somewhat sour. "Mr. Bai, you really are funny!" Bai Han Qi laughed hollowly, "I'm not being funny, but it just that the conditions that your company offered are too unreasonable." Manager Miao took out his business card, "You've already worked in this factory for more than 10 years, so you're definitely familiar with the factory's daily operation. More than half of our company's spare parts are manufactured by your factory, your factory director and I are acquainted as well, do you still not believe us?" 273
Are you Addicted? Bai Han Qi still couldn't believe it, "The most important thing is, I don't understand much about technology, how can I just simply waltz into your company and become an engineer there?" "Don't worry about it. When the time comes, there will be someone to guide you." "If it's like that, why don't you just directly find an engineer? It will save a lot of trouble!" Vertical lines could be constantly seen upon Manager Miao's forehead, this person is really too selfless. This is truly a great opportunity. If it were me, even if it's a matter of life or death, I wouldn't let this opportunity slip away! Look at him, still thinking about other people?! "Mr. Bai, if you're still hesitating, let me invite you to visit our company, the workshop has already been prepared for you." Bai Han Qi followed Manager Miao to the company in a half-dreaming and half-awake state. He went inside and looked around. It was a spacious and clean factory, everything was mechanized production. Those spare parts that he manufactured with his very own hand, if compared to these finished products before his eyes, were just like small sesame seeds. "Mr. Bai, we've arrived." Bai Han Qi drew his attention back, he followed Manager Miao and went inside a room. The room was more than 30 square meter area, spacious and well-lit. A desk is placed neatly in the middle of the room, there is a large bookshelf at the back, there are specialized books and reference books inside, along with sofa, coffee table, air conditioning, TV.... everything needed is there, standing in front of the French window, there is a beautiful small park outside. Indeed, this is deserved to be called a manager's office..... Bai Han Qi sighed in his heart. "This is going to be your office." Ban Han Qi was taken aback, "What did you say?" Manager Miao explained to Bai Han Qi patiently, "If you agreed to work here in our factory, just stay here first for the time being. In the future, if there's anything that you're not satisfied with, we can always replace it for you." Bai Han Qi stood in the middle of the office, his body stiffened just like a statue. Manager Miao opened a drawer, and pulled out a brown paper bag.

你丫上瘾了? "There is five thousand Yuan inside, if you are willing to accept our sincerity, please take this, and you can work here starting from tomorrow." "......"

Chapter 73: Da Hai Persuades Yin Zi. Translator: Estreline Proofreader: grantye ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Evening after Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai went back home after school, Bai Han Qi prepared a large table full of dish. Bai Luo Yin walked around the table, then went in front of Bai Han Qi and asked: "Did something good happened today? Has Aunt Zou left the hospital already? She hasn't, right? I remember the what the doctor said for two weeks!" Bai Han Qi's face was glowing with happiness, he especially changed his clothes, standing there with an impressive bearing, the question that Bai Luo Yin asked, he deliberately didn't give an answer, every step he took, his leather shoes on the ground produced a tapping sound, vividly portraying the idiom 'deliberately putting on a special accent' in great detail. "Dad, why are you drunk even before drinking?" "Hahaha......." Bai Han Qi laughed loudly, with his beard shaved off, his face vividly showed his graceful bearing from the time when he was young, "Your dad just got a job promotion! "Job promotion?" Bai Luo Yin gave a suspicious looks, "That lousy factory still has a different kinds of position?" "It's not that factory, another company was looking for me, they let me work there as an engineer." Bai Luo Yin's facial expression changed, his tone was somewhat hesitating, "Dad, it can't be that you've been conned by them, right?" "What are you talking about?" Bai Han Qi gave a straight face, "I've signed the contract, the salary is good! The other party was afraid that I wouldn't believe it, they gave me 5000 yuan as a sign of sincerity! One of these days if you have time, I'll bring you to take a look at my new workshop to make sure, you will be startled for sure!" After he finished talking, Bai Han Qi turned around, then he hummed while cutting pig's ear stewed in a soy sauce. Bai Luo Yin was dumbfounded for a while, then he walked outside with large strides. "Gu Hai, you come here!" 276
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai was washing his hands in the yard, he saw Bai Luo Yin came out from the kitchen while fuming with anger, went straight to his bedroom. "What's going on?" Gu Hai used towel to wipe his hands. Bai Luo Yin calmly asked with interrogation tone, "About my dad's matter, was it your doing too?" Gu Hai deliberately pretended not to know anything, "Which one?" "Don't play dumb with me, who let you to do something on your own and transferred my dad to another department? What's your intention? Do you want to provide relief to our family? Or is it because of the phone we bought for you, and you felt like you must do something so you will feel comfortable?" "Bai Luo Yin, I don't like hearing you say these kind of things. What do you mean with providing relief?What's wrong with your family? Providing relief from what? Everyday I saw uncle worked himself until exhaustion to support this family, and my heart couldn't bear it. He is your father, are you going to let him suffer a living hell every single day in that lousy factory just because of your ego?" Bai Luo Yin's face expression was still cold as before, "My family's affairs are none of your business." "Say it one more time!" Gu Hai's tone became heavier. "No matter how many times, My answer will still be the same, we will worry about our family's matter on our own!" "You...." Gu Hai clenched his teeth, he was looking for something everywhere, finally he found a small knotted broom to sweep bed, pointed it at Bai Luo Yin and said, "Dont you believe that I will hit you?" Bai Luo Yin casted an angry look at Gu Hai, without saying anything, his eyes were full of provocation, try to lay a finger on me! As for Gu Hai, this isn't a matter of daring or not daring, rather a matter of willing or not willing. Both of them refused to budge for a while, then Gu Hai suddenly dropped the broom near his own legs, he sighed. He walked towards Bai Luo Yin, then persuaded him softly, "I know that I should've discussed this matter with you before, but I was afraid that with your stubborn temperament, you would immediately strangle me the moment I open my mouth. Yin Zi, I really didn't have any other intention, I transferred uncle to a normal department, he won't be reading newspaper and drinking tea all day, that also depends on his real skill and abilities to survive, I just thought that uncle is a capable person, otherwise how can he grew such a bright and intelligent son like you? 277
Are you Addicted? I just want to give uncle a good opportunity, so he could regain all the wasted efforts of the first half of his life, and later he would still be able to stand upright and healthy in front of Aunt Zou, right?" Even if Bai Luo Yin didn't speak anything, but it could be seen from his eyes, that his heart was definitely confused. On one side, he loves Bai Han Qi so much. He really love Bai Han Qi dearly, he really cherished the happiness on Bai Han Qi's face earlier; on the other side, he felt really uneasy like this. Why is Gu Hai the one who build his dad's spring time? He hasn't devote himself enough to his dad yet! Gu Hai stroked Bai Luo Yin's hair with his hand, patiently soothed him, "You see the last time I helped Aunt Zou, you didn't say anything? When it comes to your father why can't you just let it go?" Bai Luo Yin's speaking tone was stiff, "The condition is different." "How can it be different?" Bai Luo Yin was unable to answer why, he just felt uncomfortable in his heart. "Now in this kind of society, dont you have to rely on connections to survive? You have good connections by your side that you can utilize well, it's a wonderful thing, why are you so stubborn?" "It's not that i'm being stubborn..." Bai Luo Yin looked really awkward, "I also have a lot of friends, if my family had problems, I often ask them to help me too, but when it comes to you, why is it so different?"
Right! Why is it so different? There was an ambiguous answer in Gu Hai's heart, this answer, made him felt somewhat excited. "Yin Zi...!!!" Grandma Bai's loud and clear shout can be heard from the outside. Bai Luo Yin glanced at Gu Hai, uncomfortably said one sentence, "Let's leave it at this for now." After he said that, he lifted the door curtain up, and went out.

Chapter 74: Humorous Old Bai. Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Grandma, what happened?" Grandmai Bai sat on a folding stool, stitching a small cotton-padded mattress while muttering to herself, "I want to eat Pi Li Bao [1]." "Pi Li Bao?" What is this thing? Bai Luo Yin thought, then asked, "Is it tomato?" "No!" Grandma Bai corrected her pronunciation, "Pi一Li一Bao!" Bai Luo Yin still couldn't understand it. Grandma Bai felt somewhat anxious, she randomly made a gesture with her hands, "It's Pi..... Pi..... Aiya, I can't speak well!" "Grandma, don't worry!" Bai Luo Yin sought help from Gu Hai with his gaze, nowadays Gu Hai has become Grandma Bai's interpreter. Previously, when they couldn't understand what Grandma Bai was saying, they would ask Bai Luo Yin, but now that Bai Luo Yin couldn't understand it too, they asked Gu Hai. Gu Hai was lost in his own thoughts for a moment, before his eyes suddenly brightened up. "Grandma, you wanted to say apple right?" Grandma Bai grinned happily until all of her molar teeth could be seen. "Yes....Yes....It's Pi Li Bao.." Bai Luo Yin almost fell down to the floor, why is it so far? Fortunately, Gu Hai's brain doesn't function normally like other people. Supposed if it were someone else, they won't be thinking that far! "Let's eat!" The whole family sat surrounding the round dining table, they were chatting while eating. It could be clearly seen that Bai Han Qi's mood is particularly excellent today, as he unconsciously drank half a bottle of white wine, then he began to talk about his brilliant achievement when he was young while his saliva splattered around. Bai Luo Yin simply listened to him silently, it had been a long time since the last time he saw 279
Are you Addicted? Bai Han Qi's expression like today. Although Bai Han Qi is usually joyful, but he would always frown, it had never stopped for the past 10 years, until today he is finally able to take a breath. Actually, Bai Luo Yin is very touched with all the things that Gu Hai did for him, he just had a little bit feeling of unwillingness to resign. "Da Hai! Da Hai! The luckiest thing that ever happened to our Yin Zi is..... to meet a friend like you...." Bai Han Qi reached out his big hand to hit Gu Hai's shoulder, "Uncle really need to say thank you. Thank you for being so good to Yin Zi." Bai Han Qi poured a cup of wine for Gu Hai while talking. Gu Hai stood up then drank the wine. His butt had just barely sat down, when Bai Han Qi hit him again. "Da Hai! Uncle is thinking about you too! Actually, I just received some money today, and I immediately went to furniture store to buy one bed for you. I've wronged you all this time, you have to squeeze with our Yin Zi in one bed, but it's all good now. I bought one bed for you too, later on, both of you can sleep on one bed each, so there's no need to squeeze together anymore." Bai Han Qi said so many words, but only one sentence amused Bai Luo Yin. Gu Hai's face turned green, he wasn't grateful, he wasn't complaining, it seems like there is something like a barb growing in his throat, it took a lot of effort just to swallow! "Uncle, you don't need to spend any money, just return the bed back, I sleep very well when I'm sleeping with Yin Zi." Bai Han Qi furrowed his eyebrows, sighed heavily, "How can that be okay? Since you are living here in our home, Uncle can't treat you unfairly. Don't be all polite with Uncle, I should've bought it for you earlier, my finances was a little bit tight before, I just received some money today, without saying anything further I just rushed to the furniture store. Uncle has always been thinking about this nephew of mine! Hahaha!" Those words are really touching, but it doesn't reach Gu Hai's heart! "Uncle, please listen to me, I'm not going to live here for a long time, perhaps one day I can suddenly go back home. If you buy another bed, isn't it going to be a waste?" This time, Bai Han Qi didn't say anything. This time, Gu Hai looked really hopeful, he was unable to swallow the rice, he's only waiting for Bai Han Qi to make a phone call to return the bed. 280
你丫上瘾了? Bai Han Qi's fingers tapped on the dining table for a few times, he turned his head towards Gu Hai and said, "Let's do this, just sleep on that bed first for a few days, wait until you go back, then let Yin Zi sleep there. Yin Zi's bed has been used for many years already, it has to be changed too." Gu Hai, "......." Bai Luo Yin almost choked on the food inside his mouth, he placed his chopstick down, rarely interfering a conversation. "Gu Hai, since my father had already bought it for you, there's no need to be so polite!" Gu Hai almost clenched his teeth, I'm not sleeping on one bed with you, why are you so
happy? Why are you so uncomfortable with me?..... You brat, just you wait and see, I definitely won't let you sleep peacefully tonight! ........ _________________________ [1] Grandma Bai wanted to say 苹果(Ping Guo: Apple) but because she couldnt speak well she just spoke some nonsensical word.

Chapter 75: Two Young Men's Battle of Wits. Translator: Estreline Proofreader: grantye ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gu Hai walked into the bedroom and he saw two single beds placed side by side inside the small and narrow room, there were identical sheets and quilts on the beds, on a glance, it was like they entered a two-person dormitory room. "You see, this room is small already in the first place, and then added with one more bed, we don't have any space left for our foots!" Gu Hai sat on his own bed with sullen face, continuously stared at Bai Luo Yin across him. "If there's no space for footsteps, then how did you get inside here, did you fly?" Bai Luo Yin ignored the anxious look across Gu Hai's face, he went inside his own blanket happily, intentionally let out a comfortable yawn. "Sleeping alone is really comfortable!" Gu Hai went to his own bed furiously, throwing a sentence to the person beside him, "Just look, tomorow morning you will get a cold!"
Without my embrace, do you still think you can have a comfortable sleep? "I'm more than happy even if I get a cold." Bai Luo Yin naturally turned his body away from Gu Hai, the coldness from the back of his head was like a weapon, provoked Gu Hai's little fragile heart. Gu Hai groaned, he stepped barefoot on the bed plank slowly to turn off the lights. When he returned back, he was still feeling unsatisfied, so he extended his ice-cold leg until it went inside Bai Luo Yin's blanket, straight to Bai Luo Yin's smooth and warm back. Bai Luo Yin's entire body suddenly shivered, he turned his body towards and kicked Gu Hai's lower belly, sent him back to his own bed. "Scram!" Just one direct and efficient word. "Why are you so heartless to this extent? Every night I always hug you to sleep, and you always sleep really well, sometimes when i opened my arms and let you go, you would come here and hug me on your own.... Well....." 282
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai hadn't finished his words yet, when one smelly socks was thrown to him. "If you dare to come over here tonight, I'll switch room with my dad." Gu Hai let out an evil smile, he laid sideways on his own bed, then used his arm to support his head, a pair of deep eyes sparkling and gleaming in the dark night. By the time there was completely no movement from the other side, he made a beat with his hand, lightly hummed a song. "如果没有鿇 觿你 "Rúguǒ méiyǒu yùjiàn nǐ
"If I didn't meet you, 我将会是在哪里? Wǒ jiāng huì shì zài nǎlǐ?
Where would I be now? 日孿过得怎么样 Rìziguò dé zěnme yang
How would my days pass, 人生是忦覿翿惜? Rénshēng shìfǒu yào zhēnxī?
Should I treasure this life? 也许认识柿一人 Yěxǔ rènshí mǒu yīrén
Maybe if I meet a certain someone, 过翀平凡的日孿... Guòzhe píngfán de rìzi...
Living our ordinary life.... 所以我求求你，别让我离开你 Suǒyǐ wǒ qiú qiú nǐ, bié ràng wǒ líkāi nǐ
So I beg you, don't let me leave you. 除了你，我丿能感到一丿丿情愿......" Chúle nǐ, wǒ bùnéng gǎndào yīsī sī qíngyì......"
Except for you, I can't feel the slightest affection....." [1] There's no other song like this song, that fits Gu Hai's current feelings perfectly. 283
Are you Addicted? But Bai Luo Yin couldn't listen anymore, the song is a good song, but when it came out from Gu Hai's mouth, the taste suddenly changed. His voice is the same as his body, tough and sturdy, so when he insisted on singing a gentle song like this, his voice really has flaws, and he's also tone deaf, every sentence in the song doesn't fit with the tune..... But this guy didn't seem to realize it himself, he's throwing himself into the song like that, as if he wanted to pull apart his heart, lung, belly to crumble into pieces, it made you feel more sick the more you listen to his voice. Finally, Bai Luo Yin couldn't bear it anymore, he turned his body toward Gu Hai and said, "Can you stop singing?" "If you don't want to hear my singing, then you can sing." "Why the hell should I sing?" "If you don't want to sing, then I will continue singing." Gu Hai began to play dumb. Bai Luo Yin hesitated for a moment, but he still opened his mouth and began to sing. Not even three minutes had passed, a low sound of snoring can be heard from the other side, Bai Luo Yin suddenly stopped, he looked at the guy beside him full of uncertainty... Fuck! He really fell asleep! I'm singing like this and you're just sleeping? Bai Luo Yin's brain thought about so many words that other people used to describe Gu Hai, the most charismatic guy in class 27, the most manly, mature and pretty guy, strong and handsome prince...... Bah! No matter how I look at him, he's just an
immature and inexperienced little brat! Bai Luo Yin took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, then turned his body, wrapped himself inside the blanket tightly, then closed his eyes to sleep. Gu Hai waited for a very long time, it was a very long time, as if one century long, until finally Bai Luo Yin's breaths frequency became steady. The corner of Gu Hai's mouth let out an evil smile, he lifted up his blanket softly, then he tiptoe-ing on the floor, he moved step by step towards Bai Luo Yin's bed. Bai Luo Yin didn't move at all. Gu Hai lifted Bai Luo Yin's blanket up, first he inserted one leg inside, then another leg, finally he placed his entired body into the bedsheet. "Eh!!!!..." Gu Hai's body suddenly bounced up. A certain someone's laugh can be heard beside him, at first it was held back, and then released slowly, until finally, the bed also swayed following his laughter. 284
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai clenched his teeth, "What did you put on your bed?" Bai Luo Yin raised a round dark thing from his bed, laughing and said, "A dead cactus in the yard." Gu Hai closed his eye as he angrily accepted his fate... "Aren't you afraid that you're going to lie on it when you turned over?" Bai Luo Yin swayed the cactus in his hand, "I'm sure that before I lay on it, you would definitely become my test subject first." A cold voice can be heard faintly inside the room. "You're so cruel!" Bai Luo Yin raised his lips, "You reap what you sow." Gu Hai's shoulder collapsed, he looked really miserable, "Help me, pluck out these thorns from me, if there are some pricking thorns, how can I sleep like this?" Bai Luo Yin hesitated for a while, but he still went down from the bed and turned on the lights. As soon as the lights on, he discovered something that caused all of his blood vessels spurted. Bai Luo Yin only clad himself in an underpants!!! "Why are you wearing so little today?" Bai Luo Yin's reply was like a clear blue sky[2], "Before, I'm always sleeping like this." "Then when you're sleeping with me, why did you cover everything so tightly?" Gu Hai looked like he suffered a huge grievance. "Find the reason on your own, now turn around!" Gu Hai turned his body with full of unsatisfied feelings, Bai Luo Yin then crossed his legs and sat behind Gu Hai, carefully looked for small thorns on Gu Hai's back. Everytime a thorn is pulled out, he couldn't help but to feel happy inside secretly, this
fellow, why did he use a lot of strength just to lay down on a bed? Gu Hai reached out his hand to the back, stealthily touched Bai Luo Yin's smooth thighs. "Do you want me to kick you out?" .........
285
Are you Addicted? Early morning, Bai Luo Yin woke up very comfortably, but then he saw Gu Hai's familiar face was lying exactly beside him, not only that, Gu Hai's hand was placed on the hard thing between Bai Luo Yin's legs, the scene was really unpleasant to see. "You bastard!" Bai Luo Yin suddenly kicked Gu Hai until he woke up, "Why did you still go to my bed?" Gu Hai opened one of his eye, his voice was somewhat carried a bit of indolence. "Who's sleeping on your bed? Look properly, I'm sleeping on my own bed!" Bai Luo Yin was dumbfounded, he lowered his head to see, and sure enough, there was a huge hap between their bodies, it definitely wasn't a single bed. No need to say, Gu Hai moved his bed, then he put it together with his own bed. "You saw it, I didn't crawl to your bed."
This fellow is really cunning! Bai Luo Yin cursed in his mind, then he pushed Gu Hai's bed with his hand, trying to move his bed away, but he didn't succeed, those two beds was like nailed together, couldn't be separated. "How did this happen? Why can't these two beds be separated?" Gu Hai's pondering gaze swept all over Bai Luo Yin's flustered and exasperated face, he faintly said, "I glued it with your family's hemorrhoid ointment, didn't you say it before? Your hemorrhoid ointment has million purposes." "......." _________________________ [1] Most of you probably knew this already, but this song is called 我忪在乎你 (Wǒ zhǿ zàihū nǿ: I only care about you).

During class, You Qi turned around and gave a piece of paper to Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin opened it to take a look, it's written: "Last weekend when I went home, I saw Gu Hai's girlfriend together with another man, they seemed quite intimate. I didn't dare to tell Gu Hai, tell him yourself." Bai Luo Yin gripped the paper in his hand, between his fingers, Gu Hai hasn't contacted Jin Lu Lu for two weeks already. Gu Hai used his finger to tap Bai Luo Yin's back twice, Bai Luo Yin leaned his body and saw Gu Hai stretched his hand over. "Give that piece of paper to me!" Bai Luo Yin lowered his voice, "Why should I show it to you? You Qi gave it to me!" It's because he gave it to you, that's why I have to see it!! Gu Hai groaned in his mind, what do you two have to say that you can't even say it directly? Even sneakily passing notes!! Bai Luo Yin hesitated, then he wrote a note and passed it to Gu Hai. "Your girlfriend ran away with another man." Gu Hai's expression changed. After class was dismissed, Bai Luo Yin turned his head around and saw Gu Hai was on his phone, don't know who is he sending message to. "You haven't contact Jin Lu Lu for two weeks already." Bai Luo Yin said. Gu Hai only hummed once, his eyes was unusually calm, "Now I can't contact her too, I'm texting Hu Zi and Li Shuo, asking them whether they have any information about Lu Lu or not." 287
Are you Addicted? After a while, Gu Hai's phone rang, then he went outside to pick it up. Bai Luo Yin's understood it clearly in his heart, this Jin Lu Lu, she's definitely playing hard to get. [1] When Gu Hai walked back to the classroom, his face was rather disappointed. "I'll go to Tianjin in the afternoon, I won't be able to go back to class, help me to ask for a leave." Bai Luo Yin nodded his head, "Okay, I know." Bai Luo Yin barely turned his body back, when Gu hai tapped his shoulder again. "Wait for me to come back tonight!" Bai Luo Yin was silent. Gu Hai didn't force Bai Luo Yin to nod, then Gu Hai packed all of his things and went out from the back door. ....... Gu Hai came to find Jin Lu Lu, usually when it's time after school is dismissed, Jin Lu Lu is always surrounded by some girls, and every time they saw Gu Hai, their eyes would be enticed by him. Because he couldn't stand their sultry glances and silly questions, Gu Hai usually chose to park at the east gate under the old locust tree. When he has no phone, Jin Lu Lu would come there immediately to find Gu Hai, as time passed, it has became a habit for Jin Lu Lu, when she went out from the school gate she would always immediately look toward the tree. Gu Hai went inside the school building, it was exactly the school ends time, students were chatting in groups at a certain corner, it seemed like there wasn't any nervous atmosphere like in an ordinary school, like a large part of their future is settled already. Gu Hai arrived at Jin Lu Lu's class entrance, a familiar girl went outside the class. When she saw Gu Hai, she was surprised. "You.... Why did you come here?" Gu Hai just asked without any expression, "Where is Jin Lu Lu?" "She isn't in the class, she went out already." Gu Hai turned his body around and left. That girl nudged the other girl beside her, "What's with this condition? Didn't they... break up already?" "I don't know either!" 288
你丫上瘾了? ..... Gu Hai finally saw Jin Lu Lu at the entrance of a cold beverage shop as she went out from the store with a guy, talking and laughing. The guy was holding the bag for her, she was playing around with his wallet. Everyone who saw them would be able to see, there was something between them. When Jin Lu Lu leaned her head to talk to the guy beside her for a split second, she finally glimpsed at Gu Hai. Gu Hai gazed coldly at the two people before his eyes. Jin Lu Lu quickly shifted her gaze from Gu Hai, she acted as if she didn't saw him, then she openly pulled the guy's arm closer and walked away in front of Gu Hai's eyes. Gu Hai didn't get angry when he saw both of them, he didn't grab the guy by the collar nor hit him, because he knew it clearly, this is the exact scene that Jin Lu Lu wants to see. He simply went back to his car under the old locust tree, sat inside the car and silently took a cigarette out. He wanted to think calmly about it, whether in the end, he wants to continue this relationship or not. After school, Jin Lu Lu and that man walked out, they were hesitating for a while at the school entrance, then both of them went inside the same car. Gu Hai followed their car from behind, and soon, the car stopped in front of a hotel. Gu Hai saw them went inside with cold eyes. After two hours, the sky darkened and Gu Hai went down from the car. "Miss, can you check for me, is there anyone called Jin Lu Lu staying here?" The front desk skillfully searched the customer list on the computer, then she smiled and nodded towards Gu Hai. "Hello, there is Miss Jin Lu Lu's booking record here." Although Gu Hai prepared his heart already, but when he really heard it for sure, his brain went into a buzz, his mind suddenly exploded in a flash. The front desk called Jin Lu Lu's room, but there was no answer. Gu Hai got the room number from the front desk, then he took the elevator. He kept on consoling himself, do not act on impulse, do not get angry, you only need to confirm a reason to break up, then just turn around and go! Nevertheless, when he stood in front of the door, none of the suggestions just now were effective! Bang! The entire floor quivered. 289
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai didn't knock, rather he kicked it several times, and then he immediately kicked the door lock until it opened. The guy was only wearing underpants, shaking, Jin Lu Lu was laying on the bed, her body was covered with a quilt. She seemed like she had expected Gu Hai to come since the beginning, and compared to the guy's flustered face, she looks very composed. Gu Hai's voice was calm, yet it's terrifying. "Jin Lu Lu, we haven't broke up yet." Jin Lu Lu laughed coldly, there was a cigarette between her fingers, she smoked slowly. "We're still together? Why didn't I feel like that?" Gu Hai didn't speak, the room was terribly calm, the guy bent over to find his clothes, Gu Hai walked to him and then kicked his nape, his face suddenly turned white, twitching nonstop on the floor. Jin Lu Lu was actually satisfied that their matter has developed this way. She felt happy, even if Gu Hai came over and slapped her twice, she is willing to accept it. You, Gu Hai, still care about me? You're still jealous? So, you also know the feeling that when your superiority is deprived by another person is really hard to bear, right? "I just don't like you anymore, why do you have to find another reason to make me feel disgusted with you?" Jin Lu Lu's expression changed. "I'm disgusting? Yes!... I'm disgusting... I'm telling you Gu Hai, I fucking did a lot more disgusting things! I've slept with him since long time ago! You think you picked a cheap woman for yourself? I'm telling you, even before I got together with you, I wasn't a virgin already!" After a burst of hysterical scream, there was a long silence. There was no emotion in Gu Hai's eyes. "We are over." After he said that, Gu Hai turned his body and leave. We are over?... Those three words, were like three heavy hammers, suddenly hitting Jin Lu Lu's heart. She found out, when the real thing happened, those previous brave words from her were merely flying ashes and smoldering smoke. She didn't want this kind of outcome, she was really scared with this kind of outcome. Break up.... What a cruel thing. 290
你丫上瘾了? Jin Lu Lu practically threw herself on the floor, the sheet and the quilt went down with her as well, she suddenly hugged Gu Hai's legs, crying loudly with hoarse throat, as if that arrogant face just now wasn't hers. "Da Hai... I lied to you, they say men are cheap, only the one that couldn't be obtained is the best one. I just want you to feel jealous, I just want you to feel a sense of crisis, I want you to pay more attention to me... I'm only putting on an act with him, nothing more. He doesn't like me at all, I don't like him as well, we did it all just for you to see..." Gu Hai glanced at Jin Lu Lu for the last time, "Go back to bed, you're wearing too little, you'll get cold." Jin Lu Lu terrifyingly looked down at herself, she was only dressed in underwear. "Da.... Hai...." She still hadn't said the second word, when she heard a sound of the door closing. ...... Gu Hai drove his car, speeding along the highway, a cold and stern expression drew the outline of Gu Hai's dim and gloomy face. Dark trees and dim street lamps, one by one car passed his car from behind. Gu Hai didn't know how many times he turned on the road, until his entire heart was enveloped in a huge curtain of darkness, and the chill in the air can be felt upon his fingertips, only then he discovered that he forgot to roll the window up. Gu Hai drove until he arrived at an unfamiliar street, he parked his car in front of a shop, resting his head upon the steering wheel, gradually falling asleep. He didn't realize how long he has slept, when he opened his eyes, all the shops on that street were closed already, only KFC remained open, with several homeless people sat inside. The cell phone on the front passenger seat was ringing, Gu Hai picked it up to take a look, then he saw an unfamiliar number. "Are you still coming back or not?" Gu Hai hadn't answered yet, when the other side hung up the call. The phone screen displayed 2:51. Gu Hai put down the phone, he leaned his head on the car seat, then closed his eyes, pondering over every words just now. His lost soul returned in a flash. He turned the car around, a huge amount of happiness struck his heart.

Are you Addicted? _________________________ [1] 欲擒故纵: is an idiom that means to loosen the reins only to grasp them better. So in order to capture Gu Hai, Jin Lu Lu let him loose first.

Although i'm not the one translating this chapter, I really enjoyed the process of proofreading it (I smiled very often xD), as the novel explains things more thoroughly. I hope you all enjoy this chapter too ^^
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline Proofreader: grantye ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gu Hai crawled on the bed, then he hugged the blanket together with the person inside. "I'm broken hearted." "Ng." [*] Gu Hai thought, Bai Luo Yin would say something like "You still have me" or that kind of moving words that would stir his emotion, who would've thought that he would just casually replied with "ng" like this. "Can't you comfort me a little? I caught both of them inside a hotel room." "Ng." Gu Hai let go of his hands that was embracing Bai Luo Yin, then rolled himself to Bai Luo Yin's side, his facial expression was very gloomy, his breath was loud and heavy. Bai Luo Yin then turned his body, he flicked his finger on Gu Hai's forehead. "Are you angry, Wu Da Lang?" [1] This made Gu Hai choke, Wu Da Lang.... Have you ever seen any Wu Da Lang that's tall, rich, handsome, like me? [2] Gu Hai turned his body and then he lay on top of Bai Luo Yin's body, his hand choked Bai Luo Yin's neck, angrily said, "You're not even comforting me, and still making fun of me?" "Why do you have to be comforted? I didn't see you're sad that much."
293
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai's body gradually fell down, he leaned his head on Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, he had a hurt expression on his face. "How can I be not broken-hearted? It's three years...." "Stop wasting time lying to yourself!" Bai Luo Yin hammered Gu Hai's back with his hand, "Ask your conscience, are you feeling sad or angry?" Actually about this matter, Gu Hai had been thinking about it on the way here, when he saw Jin Lu Lu and that guy were together in a same room, he was extremely depressed. But in the end, where did this depression eventually come from? Is it because he hates to let it go? Is it because his heart was ripped apart? Those descriptions didn't feel quite right. But the most direct pain he felt definitely came from his trampled dignity, any guy wouldn't be able to bear this kind of humiliation. So his mood was controlled by anger back then. Of course, Gu Hai definitely couldn't tell this to Bai Luo Yin. "I am really sad." Bai Luo Yin suddenly pushed Gu Hai some distance away from him, raised his upper body slightly, and placed his head on Gu Hai's chest. Gu Hai's heart began to beat faster immediately. This... What is he doing? Is he doing this to comfort me? Bai Luo Yin soon left Gu Hai's body, and rested his head on his pillow. "I heard it. Your conscience is scolding you." "..." Gu Hai laid back on top of Bai Luo Yin, said with weak voice mixed with a bit begging tone, "Comfort me." Bai Luo Yin sighed, his hand patted Gu Hai's back, "Wu Da Lang! Listen to your brother. Don't take it to your heart..." Gu Hai suddenly bit Bai Luo Yin's shoulder. Bai Luo Yin's fist swept on Gu Hai's neck, "Are you a dog?" Gu Hai smiled, the problems that has been occupying his mind seemed to have been untied in the middle of their fight. Maybe it should be like this between guys. No pretentious comfort needed. No need to embrace each other while weeping bitter tears. As long as you understand me enough, as long as I can feel your concerns, no matter how big the disappointment is, everything will pass after patting each other's shoulders.
294
你丫上瘾了? "Tomorrow is Aunt Zou restaurant's grand opening" Bai Luo Yin placed his hand under his head, said lightly. Gu Hai ruefully said a sentence, "So fast? Is everything ready over there?" "More or less, tomorrow let's go there together to take a look." Gu Hai rubbed Bai Luo Yin's face happily, "It's not tomorrow, it's today. It's almost daybreak." Upon hearing Gu Hai's words, Bai Luo Yin then came to realize that, I unexpectedly waited for him for so long... _________________________ Translator Note: [1] Wu Da Lang (武大郎) is an ugly character from a famous chinese novel titled Water Margin (水滸傳) who was murdered by his wife and a man she had affair with.

Chapter 78: The Identity is about to be Exposed. Translator: grantye Proofreader: Sienna7455 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Madam, are you calling me because of the matter regarding that breakfast stall?" Jiang Yuan signaled Chen Zhang Hao [1] to sit down, her temperament was still mild, "Right, I want to ask you, if you have found out, who actually foiled my plans behind my back?" Chen Zhang Hao hesitated for a moment, "Madam, I haven't found out." "Haven't found out?" Jiang Yuan's eyes showed a color of doubt, "She is an ordinary small street peddler, how come she could make the director to apologize to her personally? The one who's willing to help her must be Bai Han Qi, but Bai Han Qi doesn't have any social connections! If he really has one, he won't be so disgusting now! It's really strange, who actually oppose me?" Chen Zhang Hao's gaze wavered around, he didn't dare to look at Jiang Yuan's face. Jiang Yuan sighed, "I really don't understand how Bai Han Qi thinks, letting my son to eat those filthy things all day, so I searched for someone to smash her stall! He really ruined my plan, he could also force the director to hand over his brother in-law's shop front, to keep on selling those junk food! I pity my own son, eating those stuffs every day, he has a good condition yet cannot enjoy it. As his mother, how can I not get worried?" "As a matter of fact, I think those food are pretty good, if compared to eating at Kentucky Fried Chicken or McDonald's?" "Good?" Jiang Yuan laughed mockingly, "Do you know, nowadays many street peddlers are evil-minded? As long as their food doesn't kill anyone, they will dare to put anything inside it. If my son only ate them once in a while, I won't fuss about it, the main thing is he eats there every day, a lot of days has already passed, what will become of his body if he keep on wasting his health?" Chen Zhang Hao smiled, "Madam, even if you smash that stall, he can still eat at another stall. Perhaps the other stalls aren't as neat as this stall, what you do is treating the symptoms but not the root cause." "I'm doing this to let Bai Han Qi see!" Jiang Yuan was somewhat angry, "I'm sure he will treat his son unfairly, in order to win that widow's favor." 296
你丫上瘾了? Chen Zhang Hao had nothing to say. Jiang Yuan went silent for a long time, once again asking while facing towards Chen Zhang Hao, "You really hadn't found out anything?" Chen Zhang Hao made an 'ng' voice. "Okay then, you don't need to pretend anymore, I can see it already long time ago." Jiang Yuan's eye showed shrewd light, "You go ahead and speak out, if you speak out your problem, it won't hang above your head." "That's not it...... Madam, the crucial problem is this man....... He is somewhat special." "Special?" Jiang Yuan's face showed despicable color, "I would like to hear, how special he is!" "He is...... the son of General Gu." Gu Hai? The complexion of Jiang Yuan's face immediately changed, how come Gu Hai intervene in this matter? "Are you sure it was him?" Chen Zhang Hao nodded his head. Jiang Yuan sank into contemplation, how come Gu Hai helped that woman without any reason? How come he knew about this matter? Don't tell me there is his spy on this side? No matter what I do, is he going to interfere? "Today seems to be that small restaurant's grand opening." Chen Zhang Hao muttered a sentence without thinking. Jiang Yuan's facial expression became different, then she got up and left the meeting place. ....... Bai Luo Yin was stranded in another kind of realm[2], he leaned against while his head hung forward as if he could kowtow at any moment. Gu Hai pushed Bai Luo Yin lightly, then Bai Luo Yin stumbled unguardedly towards the other side, Gu Hai immediately took a large stride towards him, just in time for Bai Luo Yin to fell into Gu Hai's embrace. Bai Luo Yin exerted all his strength to stand, then opened his eyelid and gave Gu Hai a glance, "Are the table number sign placed already?" "All done since this morning, you should go upstairs and take a nap." 297
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin pushed Gu Hai away, stretching his body, "I will finish the work first, then take a nap!" "There are five officers here already, right? What are you worrying about?" "Don't you see that the five officers are having a promotion to attract customers?" Seeing these five officers outside, turning back and forth in chaos regardless of their officer image, Gu Hai felt really delighted. "Son, come here, help dad lift this table downstairs." Bai Han Qi's voice came from upstairs. Gu Hai restrained Bai Han Qi to stay, then he himself bolted upstairs, as if he was walking on air beautifully. Bai Luo Yin pushed the door open and went outside to breathe some fresh air. He then saw a familiar car parked at a place not far away. A woman came down from the car. Different from the past, this time Bai Luo Yin didn't avoid Jiang Yuan, rather he took the initiative to walk towards her. He had a premonition that Jiang Yuan will come to this shop, he really wanted to ask Jiang Yuan, how long would she keep doing this? Gu Hai moved the table downstairs and found that Bai Luo Yin had disappeared. Gu Hai conveniently dragged one attendant and asked, "Where did Bai Luo Yin go?" "Eh....?! He was here a moment ago." "I saw him", another attendant interrupted, "He went out through the door, seems like someone is looking for him. Nah, isn't he right there?" Gu Hai then, along with the waiter, looked outside. _________________________ Note : [1] Chen Zhang Hao (陈长浩) : this name isn't mentioned in any other chapter in addicted ^^ the name is only mentioned in chapter 78. I think he's one of Jiang Yuan's connection? [2] stranded in another kind of realm (困到一秿境界) : this means he fell asleep, entrapped in another realm*.

"What do you want to do coming here?" Bai Luo Yin said indifferently like usual. Jiang Yuan's heart writhed, "Son, I...." "If you come here only to make trouble, just go back, today no one would give you a chance to act atrociously." Bai Luo Yin interrupted Jiang Yuan's words. She was extremely shocked and grieved, she didn't expect, Bai Luo Yin could use this "act atrociously" words to her. Even if she made mistakes in those years, but after all she's still Bai Luo Yin's mother, when a mother is scolded disrespectfully in such way, she will need a strong enduring mental capacity to endure! "Why did you seek people to smash Aunt Zou's breakfast stall?" Jiang Yuan's hand gripped her leather handbag tightly, "Luoyin, please listen to what Mom's saying, that woman is not sincerely good to you. You're still young, you don't know that people's heart is very complex, she's good to you because she has her own purpose. I am a woman, I know best about woman's mentality. If she doesn't have any purpose, she won't pour her everything all out like this." "Then tell me, what does she wants? Our family's money, do we have it? Our family's power and influence, do we have it? If she only wants dad, that alone is enough for me to accept her." Jiang Yuan took a deep breath and asked, "Now that you can accept your father's second marriage, why can't you accept mine? Do you think I don't have any rights to pursue my own happiness? Do you think all women's happiness has to be so narrow like hers?" "I didn't say I'm not accepting it." Bai Luo Yin coldly laughed, "When did I say that I dont accept it?" "Then why do you always have this attitude to mom?"
299
Are you Addicted? "Because we're not in the same path." Jiang Yuan suffered extreme pain in her heart, her facial expression was grey like a layer of soil, to an extent that she didn't even realized that Gu Hai came over. "Why did you come?" Another voice passed through from behind. Bai Luo Yin's thoughts immediately shifted, he didn't understand how Gu Hai could ask that kind of question. Gu Hai walked directly toward Jiang Yuan, then he stared at her closely with cold and arrogant gaze. "What do you want coming here?" With Gu Hai's understanding and guess, he could only think that Jiang Yuan intentionally come to make a trouble, so she's starting from Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin's shocked eyes glanced towards Gu Hai, "You.... you know her?" "Yes." Gu Hai held Bai Luo Yin's shoulder in his arms, his lip was kept close to the side of Bai Luo Yin's ear, it looked as if he was whispering, but actually whole people on the street would still able to hear it, "She's my father's new wife, a filthy woman with gorgeous outer clothing. She couldn't persuade me, so she wants to get help from other people. Don't talk to her, let's go." Gu Hai used his strength to pull Bai Luo Yin, but he didn't move at all. Jiang Yuan didn't know whether she should cry or smile. "You... two.... actually know each other?" Bai Luo Yin had already understood thoroughly, but Gu Hai was still in the dark. Jiang Yuan one handedly grasped a hand, then agitated endlessly, "It's really good that you know each other, I was so worried that you two wouldn't be able to get along, whenever I think about having a family dinner reunion, I was afraid that you two would do something bad once you see each other. But this is good.... This is good..." When Gu Hai heard Jiang Yuan's words, he felt as if she was speaking nonsense, but when he heard it again, he somewhat got a clue. Jiang Yuan still saw a puzzled expression on Gu Hai's face, then she gripped his hands tightly, there was a thread of happiness passed through her voice, "Silly boy, you still dont understand yet? This is my son whom I always mentioned to you, I said that you two both have similar temperament, you two definitely will be able get along well, you see, what I said is true, right?" 300
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai, "....." Like a thunder from a clear sky! And its roar on top of head! Bitter and hateful! Liver and guts cut into pieces! Its like sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, all the joys and sorrows of life became a mixed feelings...... Why is it him? No matter what, it shouldn't be him right? Bai Luo Yin took Jiang Yuan's hands off from him, then took a large strides and walked back to Aunt Zou's snack bar, he went upstairs without saying anything, took his own bag and then went outside. "Son, what happened?" Bai Han Qi saw gloomy expression on Bai Luo Yin's face, he hurriedly went down and ran after him in confusion. Bai Luo Yin stopped his walk, he looked at the dark cavity of Bai Han Qi's eyes. "Dad, I'm okay, I'll just go out for a bit." The face of Bai Han Qi showed worries, "Where are you going? Say, your Aunt's shop is going to open formally." "Dad, I just want to go back home and take some stuffs, I'll return back here in a moment." After the talk, without giving any chance for Bai Han Qi to question any further, Bai Luo Yin ran outside the shop quickly with vigorous strides. Gu Hai was dazed for a moment, when he looked at the view of Bai Luo Yin's back, his heart sank, then he chased after Bai Luo Yin at a fast pace. "Yin Zi!" Gu Hai shouted from behind. Bai Luo Yin didn't give any response, uncontainable anger and unwillingness can be seen from his back, he couldn't accept this reality, it doesn't matter how good Gu Hai's family financial condition is, even if his father was a general secretary, he wouldn't have any objection, but why he had to be Gu Wei Ting's son? It's the family that Bai Luo Yin despised the most, why Gu Hai had to be a part of that family? "Bai Luo Yin!" Gu Hai howled from behind. Bai Luo Yin still continued to walk away without turning his head back. Gu Hai took a few big steps to chase Bai Luo Yin and then he grabbed Bai Luo Yin's arm. 301
Are you Addicted? "Didn't you hear me shouting for you?" Both of them stopped on an empty street, it was the first time their eyes showed those kind of meaningful glance to each other. "I heard you." "Then why did you ignore me?" Bai Luo Yin felt he had nothing to say, he turned his body around and wanted to leave, but Gu Hai stopped him forcefully. "Get lost!" Bai Luo Yin shouted. This "get lost" and the countless "get lost" he received from Bai Luo Yin prior to this one did not have the same feeling. Gu Hai felt like his heart was twisted inside. "You want me to get lost? Why the hell should I get lost?" Gu Hai shook Bai Luo Yin's shoulder. Bai Luo Yin firmly grabbed Gu Hai's collar, "You're a liar!" "What did I lie to you?" Gu Hai was unable to restrain his anger, "I just knew it today too. Didn't you hear Jiang Yuan's tone? I absolutely have no idea that she is your mother. What did I lie to you?" You cheated my feelings... Gu Hai breathed heavily and stared at Bai Luo Yin with his pair of crimson eyes. There was only one spot inside his heart that's still intact, and that spot belongs exclusively for Bai Luo Yin alone. But now, it's going to be ruptured soon. Bai Luo Yin walked again. Gu Hai pursued him relentlessly and both of them continued to ran until they eventually arrived at the doorstep of the house. Bai Luo Yin opened the door and he immediately wanted to close them again, but Gu Hai kicked open the doors with his foot, the loud noise and the shock swayed the jujube trees nearby. "Bai Luo Yin, what do you want?" Gu Hai pinned Bai Luo Yin on a wall in the yard with one push, Gu Hai clenched his teeth and stressed each word that came out from his mouth, "Am I not good to you? Do you think you're the only one who felt wronged? I'm telling you, your mother and my father had a clandestine affair for so many years and my mother died mysteriously! The one who should be mad is me, the one who should be saying 'get lost' is me!" 302
你丫上瘾了? Blue veins on Bai Luo Yin's forehead keep pulsating, the part of his neck that was gripped by Gu Hai slowly began to turn into a dark red, full of hatred. "Right.... Everything you said is right. Then, why are you not leaving? Just go, and both of us will be happy!" "You are asking why I am not leaving?" Gu Hai shouted himself hoarse, "Supposed if I can bear to leave you, would I not have done it? No matter how big my hatred for your mother is, it will never reach a thousandth of my feelings for you! Bai Luo Yin, I won't stop you even if you hate my dad, but why do you have to link that to me? Don't you think you are very cruel like this?" Bai Luo Yin grabbed Gu Hai's hand and gradually took it away from his body. "Gu Hai, I don't have hatred towards you. I dont have hatred towards your family too. It's just that I can't accept you, I can't accept your entire family. Because I also have my own family, and your family is the pain for my family, our family just can't let it go. Your dad can ignore my mother's past, because he didn't suffer anything, but my dad can't..." Bit by bit, Gu Hai's heart fell into the abyss. "So you mean, I have to leave no matter what?" Bai Luo Yin turned his body around, "I'll go and help you pack your things." "Bai Luo Yin, so you're really going to be cruel like this?" From the past until now, Bai Luo Yin never felt that the road from the door to his room was that long. Gu Hai's voice calmed down, but his calm demeanor could somewhat raise people's hackle. "No need to pack away my things. I don't want them. Help me pass a message to Aunt Zou, congratulation for the grand opening!" The sound of Gu Hai's footsteps gradually got further away. Bai Luo Yin felt as if more than half of his life has been torn apart by reality. Gu Hai walked along this familiar road, he recalled each and every one the memories that carved within the tracks left by the rolling wheels. He felt pain as if his heart was being twisted by a knife. Yesterday, he broke up with Jin Lulu and he didn't have this kind of feeling. A bare pain began to spread from his heart to his entire body, even the pores are crying in agony.... ......
303
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin went out from his rooms, Grandma Bai was in the middle of stooping towards the water. "Let's eat mouse for dinner!"[1] Grandma Bai shouted excitedly. Grandpa Bai beside her just laughed continuously until he coughed. Bai Luo Yin didn't even have any slightest expression on his face. Grandma Bai grabbed the bucket, then clumsily moved to Bai Luo Yin's front side, excitedly said, " Me and your grandpa wrapped two buckets of mouse (dumplings) [1], tonight we're cooking mouse, the ones Da Hai loves to eat most!" Since Gu Hai became Grandma Bai's interpreter, he became the first one that Grandma Bai called correctly. **** Translator Note: [1] Grandma Bai wanted to say 饺孿 (Jiao Zi= dumplings) but she said 耗孿 (Hao Zi= mouse) instead.

Chapter 80: You Qi Searches for Yin Zi. Translator: Sienna7455 Proofreader: grantye -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For two whole days, Bai Luo Yin didn't come to school at all. He asked Bai Han Qi to tell Luo Xiao Yu through a phone call. Apart from this, he didn't tell anyone else. Lately, You Qi hates to converse with Gu Hai as Gu Hai has always bullied him, intentionally or otherwise. However, he really cannot hold it back this time. During the past two days of Bai Luo Yin's absence, everything that You Qi did was inconvenient, he didn't know whose school assignment should he copy from, he didn't know to whom should he gave give his leftover food, he wanted to complain, yet he couldn't find anyone to grumble his thoughts... "Gu Hai, where's Bai Luo Yin?" Gu Hai plugged his earphones, listening to the Great Compassion Mantra [1], his face was expressionless. You Qi had no choice but to approach Yang Meng after class. "Wow! Wow!..." Just as You Qi arrived at this floor, he stirred up a burst of squealing. The students who enjoyed watching a bustling scene, rushed out from the classrooms. However, nothing could be seen except a group of people. In a split second, the entire corridor was seething with excitement. The sound of the female students gasping in admiration and male students flinging curses despicably were rising one after another. You Qi inserted both hands into his pockets, as if he's already used to everyone watching him. With his model-like attitude, he walked into Yang Meng's classroom door. "Is Yang Meng here?" You Qi asked one of the female student. The female student's mouth parted open, showing an eager smile. Complying with You Qi's inquiry, she broke into the classroom, grabbed Yang Meng and hauled him outside. "Here he is." The girl smiled sweetly. You Qi thanked her briefly, then dragged Yang Meng to the entry of a staircase. 305
Are you Addicted? "I'm wondering why it is so noisy outside, so it turns out that you're here." Yang Meng yawned. You Qi took off his cold and detached façade, looking at Yang Meng with an impatient expression. "Where did Bai Luo Yin go?" "Yin Zi?" Yang Meng stayed dumbfounded for a long time, "He didn't go to class?" "He's been absent for two days, you don't know?" Yang Meng nodded, "It's been a long time since I went to their house." "Then, let's go there together after school." Yang Meng hesitated for a moment. "If I'm not mistaken, you live in the school dorm, right? Doesn't your dormitory have a curfew? Why don't we wait until tomorrow? He may come tomorrow, if he really doesn't come, then both of us will visit him on Sunday." "Don't wait until Sunday, let's go there today." You Qi tugged at Yang Meng's clothes and bunched it in his hands like a flower. Yang Meng scrutinized You Qi from top to bottom, wearing a perplexed look, "Why are you so anxious? He only requested for two days leave, right? If he's really in trouble, then someone would've tidied his things already." "It's you who's way too calm!" You Qi pointed at Yang Meng's head, "I'd always believed that you definitely have human sympathy. I really, really didn't expect that you are actually like this!" After You Qi finished speaking, he walked away with a long face. Yang Meng watched the view of You Qi's retreating back, then muttered to himself, "Is he crazy?" Turning around to walk back, Yang Meng bumped into a "wall" made of female students........ Ten minutes before classes were over, You Qi hid at the parking lot of Yang Meng's class, he waited until Yang Meng rode his bike outside the school gates then he called for a cab. "Mister, would you please follow that bike in the front?" After this one sentence, You Qi waited for the driver to let loose a torrent of abuse towards him, yet this driver had a fairly good temper. Not only that he didn't yell at 306
你丫上瘾了? You Qi to go down, but he also didn't utter any complaints, following that particular bike until they reached a small alley. Turning left and right, not even a hint of impatience could be seen from the driver, to the extent that he hummed along with the Chinese folk music playing inside the taxi. You Qi couldn't help to ask: "Mister, when I ask you to follow that bicycle, don't you feel the slightest unpleasant at all?" The driver laughed loudly, "Why should I feel unpleasant? Last time, there's even a young lad who asked me to follow a walking person." [2] A touching feeling welled up inside You Qi's heart, supposed if everyone is like this driver, very sympathetic and warmhearted, this society would be very warm. Yang Meng stopped in front of Bai Luo Yin's house. You Qi also told the driver to stop, then looked at the taxi fare, took out twenty-five Yuan and hand it over to the driver. "Twenty-five Yuan?" The face of the driver turned green, "You think I'll accept this?" You Qi was stupefied, pointing at the fare, "The display shows twenty-five Yuan!" The driver sneered, "Young man, you are too stingy! The person I've been talking about just now, the one that told me to trail a walking person, his taxi fare was also twenty-five Yuan in total, but then he directly paid one hundred Yuan without saying anything." "Of course that person is rich, but I don't have much money." You Qi disagreed with the driver. The driver promptly locked the car and started to argue with You Qi. "Young man, I'm not driving an unlicensed taxi. I depend on my conscience when charging passengers. How long have I drove through this path? If I drove in my regular speed, how many miles have I drove? "If it's according to what you've said, you have to refund my money! It's rush hour right now, if not because I want you to drive me to this small alley, you'd still be stuck in front of the school gates right now." "Don't speak bullshit with me. If you don't give me the money now, don't even think that you can come down." "Are you a taxi driver or a robber?" "Who did you say is a robber? Who did you say is a robber? Say it one more time, I'll slap you in your face and throw you to the city moat." 307
Are you Addicted? In the end, You Qi compromised, he tossed the only one hundred Yuan inside his wallet to the driver. When he got off the cab, he continuously swore at the taxi driver in his heart: that grandson [3] actually gave him one hundred Yuan? Fuck! If I run into him, I'll definitely beat him to death! After hesitating for a long time, Yang Meng finally entered Bai Luo Yin's house. You Qi followed him closely from behind. When Bai Han Qi saw Yang Meng, he shouted enthusiastically, "Big Maiden, why haven't you come and hang out here recently?" When You Qi heard these two words "Big Maiden", he couldn't help but to let out a snort. Now he figured out why Yang Meng didn't allow him to tag along, it turns out that he still has such an endearing nickname! Yang Meng heard the laughter behind his back and couldn't help but to shiver. Turning his head back, Yang Meng's face paled. "You... how did you follow me?" "I'm not following you, how do I know your dad openly called you Big Maiden?" "That's not my dad." Yang Meng replied awkwardly, "This is Bai Luo Yin's dad." "Huh?" You Qi was pleasantly surprised, "Hello Uncle." Bai Han Qi smiled towards You Qi, "Are you also Yin Zi's classmate? This youngster grows up so lively." You Qi smiled embarrassedly, while Yang Meng stood by and rolled his eyes. "Uncle, where is Bai Luo Yin?" "He's sleeping!" Bai Han Qi said. You Qi looked at his watch, it's only 7 PM, "He went to bed this early?" "He just slept this morning, I guess he'll be up anytime soon." Why is it the other way around... You Qi asked tentatively: "Is he sick?" "He isn't sick, just tired, he didn't want to get out of bed." This father... he's way too open-minded! Just because his son is tired, he doesn't need to go to school. You Qi sincerely admired and envied him at the same time. When Yang Meng heard that Bai Luo Yin is fine, he directly refrained himself from entering and disturbing his sleep. He chatted with Grandpa Bai for a while, picking up
308
你丫上瘾了? several crisp dates. When he reckoned that enough time had passed, he decided to go home and eat. You Qi stealthily entered Bai Luo Yin's room and couldn't help but to be frightened by the chaotic scene before his eyes. Things were scattered around all places, there were almost no space for walking. The seat by the window was replaced with a bed, a very monstrous double bed. On one side was a board mattress, while the other side was a spring mattress, Bai Luo Yin was sleeping on the board mattress, only a few threads of his disheveled hair was exposed. You Qi walked over beside the writing desk, casually rummaging through the stuffs as he pleased. However, he discovered a lot of Gu Hai's things. Wrist watch, wrist protector, lighter... You Qi often pay close attention to Gu Hai, so his things left a deep impression on him. He opened the wardrobe, all of the clothes inside belonged to both Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin, every single one of them were piled up together. All these showed that both of them certainly have a very intimate relationship. Bai Luo Yin woke up, staring at You Qi with a tired and gloomy gaze. "Why are you here?" You Qi hastily let go of the things in his hand, a smile appeared upon his handsome face. "You've been absent for the past two days, I'm here to visit you." Bai Luo Yin hummed at him hazily, slipping on his clothes and preparing to get out of bed. You Qi noticed that Bai Luo Yin complexion was terribly sour, excluding sickness, most likely it's an issue related with his state of mind. However, seeing his father's behavior, there seemed to be no problem in the house. Thus, it's probably Bai Luo Yin's personal problem. That evening, Bai Luo Yin let You Qi to stay overnight at his home. Everyone was asleep during the quiet night, You Qi himself was curled up inside the quilt, unable to take his eyes away from Bai Luo Yin. "Are you at odds with Gu Hai?" Bai Luo Yin's heart thumped for a moment, feigning a very calm and reserved expression. "Why him?" "Don't you think that your relationship with him is not an ordinary one?" It's not only You Qi that had uttered this particular sentence to him. Previously, Bai Han Qi had also said the same thing, yet the impression from the two people is 309
Are you Addicted? different. Bai Han Qi considered both of them as good brothers for life. Meanwhile, what You Qi implied is a much deeper and intimate relationship. Bai Luo Yin was not accustomed to discuss the matters of one man with other men, so he conveniently didn't say anything. It was already late at night, You Qi couldn't hold back his drowsiness, so he slept first. Bai Luo Yin watched him quietly. He's also a classmate, he's also a friend, but why does the feeling he get when's he's with You Qi is completely different from when he's with Gu Hai? "Yin Zi..." Bai Luo Yin shut his eyes, yet his mind kept on spinning around this form of address that Gu Hai called him. He has no idea how many times Gu Hai called out his name every night, slowly dragging out the last syllable of his name, teasing him in amusement, yet it carried deep affection and shamelessness. Supposed if this sound emerged from You Qi's lips, Bai Luo Yin will definitely feel nauseous, but with Gu Hai, that feeling never come. **** Translator Note: [1] 'the Great Compassion Mantra': a type of ritual speech originating from Mayahana Buddhism. This mantra is often used for protection or purification. [2] 'Last time, there's even a young lad who asked me to follow a walking person.' : Remember the time when Gu Hai took a cab and asked the driver to follow Bai Luo Yin? This is exactly the same driver that drove You Qi in this chapter. [3] 'Grandson' in this case is not in terms of familial ties, but it's for cursing people. In English, it's similar to 'bastard'. Bonus: the person that You Qi would like to beat to death is actually Gu Hai (most likely not going to happen, though).

Chapter 81: Hu Zi, Quick Come and Save me! Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Son, you can ride my bike to school, I'll go to work with the shuttle bus." An old-fashioned bicycle was parked in front of Bai Luo Yin and You Qi, Bai Luo Yin gripped the handlebars then called You Qi, "Get on." "I'll give you a ride, it's been a long time for me since the last time I rode a bike, I want to try." "Can you do it?" Bai Luo Yin had some doubts. You Qi pounded his own chest, "No problem." Bai Luo Yin sat, half-believing and half-doubting, when You Qi started to pedal with his foot, the bike began to sway violently. Bai Luo Yin's body swayed left and right too, following the bike's movement. He saw a drainage ditch in front of them, so Bai Luo Yin swiftly jumped down from the bike, he wanted to grab the rear kickstand but he couldn't, so You Qi drove himself into the ditch. Fortunately, the ditch wasn't wide, so the bike didn't fall into the ditch, but the firm handlebars stabbed that sturdy, solid lower part of You Qi. When Bai Luo Yin came over towards You Qi, he crossed his legs while crouching on the ground, with a painful expression upon his face. "I said that I'll drive you, but you still insist to try it, does it hurt badly?" You Qi waved his hand, "Don't talk to me yet." Bai Luo Yin found it both funny and embarrassing. Finally, Bai Luo Yin helped the injured You Qi to get up and continued to ride the bike. Gu Hai had been staying at his aunt's luxurious house for these past two days. Because it's quite far from the school, he planned to move there for a few days and then move out, to take a look at the interior design of the house nearby China World Trade Center. If he's satisfied with it, then he intend to move back by himself from now on. The taxi was driving smoothly on the road, the scenery outside the window changed at every step. Soon enough, it passed through the road towards the school. 311
Are you Addicted? He hadn't seen Bai Luo Yin for the whole two days, Gu Hai continuously restrained the secret longing that welled up inside his heart. He went to school as if nothing had happened, he went back to his aunt's house as if nothing had happened, as if there's nothing different in his life, even though the reality is definitely far from it. The car stopped at the intersection, Gu Hai saw Aunt Zou's store from the window, it was full of customers. Aunt Zou's silhouette could be faintly seen from the gap between the door curtains. It's only been two days, but Gu Hai already misses Aunt Zou's homecooked food, just by sitting in the car, he could smell the sweet fragrance gradually entering the car, floating in the air. "We're almost arrived." The driver reminded Gu Hai to prepare the money. Gu Hai quickly searching for small change, and when he was about to give it to the driver, he saw two people from outside the window. Bai Luo Yin was with You Qi, they were talking and laughing, while pushing the bike together, passing through the school gate. Flames of anger started to burn in Gu Hai's heart, pain and wrath intertwined inside his mind. He stared at Bai Luo Yin's back firmly, he stared at Bai Luo Yin's face that looked as if nothing had happened, his unconstrained feelings once again attacked his entire body. So, it turns out that the one who feels unhappy is only me, the one who cares is only me, I'm just a companion to him, nothing more, even if I'm replaced with someone else, it's still the same for him. The car had already stopped, the driver stretched his hand out to receive the money from Gu Hai, but he didn't move. "What happened?" The driver was bewildered, why does this person's face suddenly change? It's not because he rode an unlicensed taxi, right? "Nothing, I just don't want to go to school anymore, please bring me back home." "Going back home?" The driver asked Gu Hai closely, "Did you forget your bag at home?" Gu Hai didn't say a word, his grave and stern expression that could be seen from the rearview mirror was extremely scary. The driver was being sensible, he didn't ask anymore and he just made a U-turn to go back home. After staying home for two days, Bai Luo Yin felt like he's ready to face Gu Hai normally, but after he went inside the classroom, he found out that it's still very difficult. 312
你丫上瘾了? The seat behind him was empty, from the first until the last period. Obviously no one sat behind him, but Bai Luo Yin was very sensitive towards the sound that came from behind, who shifted the desk after class, who opened the back door before class, all of them made Bai Luo Yin's heart to tighten, this course of events, seems to go really, really slow. However, it's only when Gu Hai wasn't here, supposed if Gu Hai really came back, Bai Luo Yin couldn't imagine what situation he would get into. He never experienced these feelings before, thus he was unable to deal with it easily, cruel words had been voiced out, yet his heart couldn't withdraw it anymore. "This is Gu Hai's homework, he doesn't come so I'll give it to you." Bai Luo Yin casually flipped through the book, there were Chinese classic phrases that Gu Hai wrote from his memory. At first glance, he thought it's his own handwriting, but when he looked at it again, he discovered slight differences. Each word is written stroke by stroke, it showed the writer's patience, earnest and unwavering efforts. If Bai Luo Yin didn't know clearly what he wrote, these words would've fooled him completely. The feelings that involved, the reason why they hate to part with each other, it's because both of their lives are tangled too deeply, too closely. Not only Gu Hai's handwriting, but many of Bai Luo Yin's customs and habits had started to intertwine with Gu Hai's. When they walked together on the street and see a familiar scene, they will laugh together; when they're eating together, you just put what you don't like into my bowl, I will put what I don't like into your bowl; they always wear each other slippers by mistake and take the wrong towel; after waking up in the morning, they will wear each other's jacket and the smell of each other's bodies will linger for the whole day... Bai Luo Yin flipped until the last pages and he saw three pages filled with small, closely written words. One page was filled completely with "白 (Bai)", one page was filled completely "洛 (Luo)", and one page was filled completely with "因 (Yin)". When people are practicing calligraphy, they would often write what appears in their heads unconsciously, just like when we hear a song, we will hum that song for the whole day. Bai Luo Yin didn't dare to think what was inside Gu Hai's mind while writing those words that made him could write three pages of words with such an intense feelings. After class, Dan Xiao Xuan asked Bai Luo Yin. 313
Are you Addicted? "Where did Gu Hai go?" "I don't know." "You actually don't know where he is?" Dan Xiao Xuan exaggerated with a bit of lovely charms, "Aren't both of you taking turns in coming to class? You come today and he will come tomorrow. Every day both of you send one person as a representative, and when you go home you would combine the lessons together...." "Gu Hai came to school yesterday?" Dan Xiao Xuan nodded her head, "Yes, last two days when you weren't here, he came." Bai Luo Yin's expression changed, he didn't say a word. After the second lesson ended, the class representative walked towards Bai Luo Yin. "This is Gu Hai's school safety book, because he's not here, please help him to sign it." Bai Luo Yin hesitated a bit, but he still helped Gu Hai to sign it. After school, a school council came to find Bai Luo Yin. "This is an express package for Gu Hai, I don't know why they sent it to the school, help him to keep it." ...... When Li Shuo and Zhou Shi Hu came to the private club to find Gu Hai, he was drinking alone by himself to drown his sorrows. One person on each side, speaking nonsense, just like caring brothers. "Da Hai, break up is break up, previously when you were still together, I didn't dare to say this, what are that Jin Lu Lu's good points? Is she beautiful? Does she have a hot body? You can find so many girls like her on the street, does she deserve someone like you?" "Right, she acts pretentious for the whole day, she also takes advantages of other people every time, pretending.... pretending to be what she isn't, I really hate listening to her talking, if not because of you, I would've feel annoyed with her for many times already!" "Da Hai, you should've broke up with her earlier, just look at the waitresses around us, they're much more beautiful, unlike her, right?" "That's right, just look at our qualification, which girl doesn't want to be chased by you!"
314
你丫上瘾了? Both of them was like, you say one sentence and I say one sentence, no one knows how many bottles of wine that Gu Hai had drunk, his crimson eyeballs gazed at both of their nonstop wiggling lips. The golden leaf on the wall became more and more dazzling, the wine cup in his hand became more and more blurry, his eyes were wandering around, didn't know where his mind is going, misery and longing followed along the wine pouring down his throat. Li Shuo was about to go out and call for a waiter, suddenly he was pushed down by Gu Hai, until the fell on the sofa. "Da Hai, what happened with you?" Li Shou was dumbfounded. Gu Hai, as if he didn't hear him, pinched Li Shuo's cheeks with both of his hands, shouted and asked him in agony, "Am I not good to you? Who else have I, Gu Hai, treated this good before?" "Okay, okay." Li Shuo went along with him, "You've never treated anyone else as good as you did to me." "Then, why did you have to say such cruel words to me?" Li Shuo transformed himself as Jin Lulu, and forced himself to say, "Because I'm cheap, I'm fucking cheap!" "Who did you say is cheap?" Gu Hai pulled Li Shuo's hair that was on his forehead to the back of his head and bit his forehead, "Who let you say that you are cheap?" "Ouch, Da Hai! When did you learn to bite?" Li Shuo complained in tears. Zhou Shi Hu simply burst into loud laughter on one side. Gu Hai was still suffering and grieving like before, sometimes he would mutter to himself, sometimes he would curse in anger, not saying anything else except these couple of words, why are you so cruel? Don't you miss me? Zhou Shi Hu sighed ruefully, "This Jin Lulu is really a disaster!" "Yin Zi," Gu Hai suddenly hugged Li Shuo tightly, "I miss you." Yin Zi? Both Li Shuo and Zhou Shi Hu were momentarily stunned, why does this name sound so familiar in their ears? Gu Hai didn't give any time for Li Shuo and Zhou Shi Hu to react, he suddenly ripped Li Shuo's shirt and bit his chest, causing Li Shuo to scream in pain.

Are you Addicted? "You don't care about me, right? You don't take me seriously, right? Today I'll fuck you, if you have the guts, don't even utter a word! If today I can't fuck you until you become docile to me, I won't be called Gu Hai!" "I don't have any guts!!!" Li Shuo looked up to the sky while uttering a long and loud cry, "Hu Zi!! Hu Zi!! Quick, come and save me!!"

Gu Hai had been absent from school for five days. Bai Luo Yin collected a pile of Gu Hai's things, his homework, test papers, sports stuffs, and also a letter aaddressed to his guardian..... After the second period in the afternoon, Dan Xiao Xuan passed a slip of paper to Bai Luo Yin. I heard that Gu Hai is going to transfer schools, is it true? Bai Luo Yin stared blankly at that slip of paper, it's the first time for him to reply a paper, previously he would've just crush it right after he read them. How do you know? Dan Xiao Xuan passed the paper back. Today, I went to the homeroom teacher's office, it seemed like she was talking with other teacher about this matter. Bai Luo Yin didn't reply anymore, his mind was wandering throughout the entire class. ..... "Dad, I'm going out for a bit." "It's late already, where are you going?" Bai Han Qi went out and ran after him, "Are you not having dinner?" Bai Luo Yin already rode the bike and turned at the alley. The place where Gu Hai was staying was located at the busiest area of Beijing. Compared to the alley where Bai Luo Yin lived, this place had a completely different 317
Are you Addicted? atmosphere. One had a pure, old local flavor of Beijing, while the other one was full of strong and modern business atmosphere. Passing through one after another spacious streets, everything he saw were expensive cars, high-level senior executives, beautiful women, successful public figures.... After pressing the doorbell, a middle-aged woman with a composed look opened the door. "Excuse me, is Gu Hai living here?" The middle-aged woman scrutinized Bai Luo Yin from head to toe, she had a bit suspicion and examined him. "Who are you?" "I'm his classmate." That middle-aged woman saw that Bai Luo Yin was not that old, there's a hint of innocence on his face that he couldn't hide, the possibility of him being a swindler was not big, so she brought him downstairs to a private room. Gu Hai was lying on the bed, enjoying the massage therapist's good service. His current life right now is completely relaxing but also became dull. Every morning, he exercises at the gym, in the afternoon he stays at home, at night he always gets a massage in the clubhouse, and occasionally he would ask a therapist to come and enlighten his mind. "Mr. Gu, there is someone looking for you, he said he's your classmate, I just want to ask, is it okay to let him in?" Gu Hai was laying on the massage bed, he didn't open his eyes, his tone carried a hint of laziness and indifference. "Let him in." Two minutes later, the middle-aged woman brought Bai Luo Yin inside. They hadn't seen each other for a whole seven days, and the moment when Bai Luo Yin saw Gu Hai, he suddenly felt that the distance between them has become really far. After a long time, he didn't hear any sound, Gu Hai opened his eyes slightly, and he saw a face that was familiar, yet unfamiliar to him at the same time. The hole in his heart that had barely healed was suddenly ripped open again in a flash, the therapist's words were completely tossed to the back of his mind, the massage that was formerly comfortable suddenly turned painful. "Why did you come?" Gu Hai asked coldly. 318
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin took a deep breath, he tried really hard to make his tone as normal as possible. "I want to give your things to you." Gu Hai gave an overbearing gaze towards Bai Luo Yin, "Do you think I still need those things?" This kind of attitude undoubtedly stabbed Bai Luo Yin's heart. Gu Hai didn't need to open his eyes, to realize what kind of expression Bai Luo Yin has right now, it was a painful, guilty pleasure. "Whether you need it or not, it's your business, the teacher only asked me to go and give your things to you, that's all. If you really don't need it, then just throw it away." Gu Hai didn't say anything for a while. "I'll put your things here, I'm going back." When Gu Hai heard Bai Luo Yin's steps gradually fading away from his ears, he felt as if his heart was being cut out, bit by bit. When he heard the sound of the door being pushed open, Gu Hai suddenly stood up, and yelled: "Bai Luo Yin!" Bai Luo Yin's steps halted at once. "You'd better come back here!" Bai Luo Yin paid no heed to him, he stretched his hand out to twist the doorknob. Gu Hai abruptly jumped down from the massage bed, he took a few large strides towards the door, pulled at Bai Luo Yin's clothes until he fell back. The masseur only bowed once, and left the room. Gu Hai took a deep breath, staring intently at Bai Luo Yin with a cold and sharp gaze. "So, now you can only adopt this attitude towards me?" Gu Hai asked. Bai Luo Yin fixed his clothes, looking at Gu Hai icily. "What kind of attitude do you want from me?" I threw my pride to come here and see you. I, Bai Luo Yin, went against my own principles for the first time, I was worried, I wanted to see how you are doing these days. You? From the beginning until the end, you didn't even look at me straight in the eyes! Are you qualified to question my attitude? "Am I different?" Gu Hai softly asked. 319
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin didn't say anything and simply clenched his teeth. Gu Hai yelled, "Bai Luo Yin! Look at me properly, am I different from before?" Bai Luo Yin obstinately wore a rather strained expression. "Just because of a status, you have the heart to sentence me to a death penalty? Just because of a status, I'm suddenly not that person who treats you well?" Gu Hai's face was grave and stern, wearing a painful expression as if it was being carved by a knife. He was unable to conceal his own feelings, he drew Bai Luo Yin into his embrace with one pull. He hugged him tightly, pouring out his entire week of longing, and his tears failed him, as he couldn't hold it back anymore. "Bai Luo Yin, apart from that day when my mother passed away, I, Gu Hai, have never cried for another person." When he heard Gu Hai saying those words while choking in tears, he felt as if knives were piercing his heart. It's not that Bai Luo Yin didn't think Gu Hai treats him well. Since he was small until now, he and Bai Han Qi have been living their lives casually. The first person in his life who tied his shoestrings for him, is Gu Hai; the person who tucks him into the blanket every night countless times, is Gu Hai; the person who put two pieces of beef into his bowl when they are having ramen, is Gu Hai... Gu Hai doesn't even hold back when spoiling and doting on him, gives in to him, and make sure that he won't feel wronged. To the extent that this one week of separation made Bai Luo Yin felt like he had lost an entire world of love. The air seemed to stop flowing at that moment, Gu Hai's breaths gradually became smooth and steady. "Just go." Bai Luo Yin merely stood still, he didn't move. Gu Hai pushed Bai Luo Yin until he was out of the door, "Go!" The beauty salon on the corner of the street played Teresa Teng's old song, "I only care about you". 如果没有鿇 觿你我将会是在那里。 If I hadn't met you, where would I be right now? 日孿过得怎么样人生是忦覿翿惜。 How would I pass my days, whether or not I will cherish my life? 320
你丫上瘾了? 也许认识柿一人过翀平凡的日孿。 Maybe I would've met a certain someone, passing ordinary days. 所以我求求你别让我离开你。 So, I beg you, please don't let me leave you. 除了你我丿能感到一丿丿情愿。 Except for you, I cannot even feel the slightest affection. All of a sudden, Bai Luo Yin was on the verge of tears, he recalled the night when Gu Hai was singing this song, his own self that looked down and sneered at him. However, at this very moment, he suddenly really wants to hear Gu Hai sing for him again one more time.... When Bai Luo Yin went back to his home, the lights on his grandma and grandpa's room were already turned on. Bai Han Qi was sitting inside Bai Luo Yin's room, he was lost in his thought while fixing his gaze upon Gu Hai's things. When he heard the sound of door closing, he stood up and walked outside. "Why did you come back this late? Where did you go?" Bai Luo Yin replied lightly, "I went to deliver my classmate's things." Bai Han Qi was about to leave Bai Luo Yin's room, but he felt that he has something he wants to say. He stopped at the door, hesitant and uncertain. "Yin Zi." "Hm?" Bai Luo Yin placed the schoolbooks he needed for tomorrow's classes inside his school bag, one by one. "Da Hai hasn't come over for quite a while, right?" Bai Luo Yin stopped his movement, lowered his head and hummed. Bai Han Qi sat beside Bai Luo Yin, staring at his face and asked, "Be honest with dad, you're fighting with Da Hai, right?" "No." "If not, then why didn't he come to our house?" Bai Han Qi felt a bit anxious. Bai Luo Yin acted mechanically, "He also has his own house! The condition of their family is very good, why would he always stay at our lousy house?" 321
Are you Addicted? When Bai Han Qi heard those words, he was sure that there must be a problem between them. "Yin Zi, I'll tell you this, Da Hai is a really good kid, you won't be able to find someone else like him. It's not like I want to flatter him, but let's say about Aunt Zou's matter, just how much effort he used from the beginning until the end? You really can't find such a loyal, helpful, and warmhearted boy like him! A fight between friends is a common thing, you've grown up already, you need to have a broad-minded view. Don't abandon such a good kid just because of trivial things like this, it's definitely not worth it!" Bai Luo Yin put his bag down, he looked at Bai Han Qi dejectedly. "About this matter, I really can't tolerate it." "He's a little kid, what can he do that makes you angry like this?" Bai Han Qi simply laughed without any worries, "Did he steal your girlfriend?" "No, it's his father who stole your wife." Bai Luo Yin pressed his luck, in order to prevent Bai Han Qi from talking about Gu Hai any further, so he just told the truth bluntly. "What do you mean?" Bai Han Qi's thought was a bit slow. Bai Luo Yin heaved a sigh, and with a great difficulty, he started to talk. "The man who got married with my mother, is his dad." Bai Han Qi didn't move for a while, then he relaxed. "You.... Did you know this from the start? So, you mean, he has been hiding the truth from you.... He approached you with a purpose?.... That's what you wanted to say? Why am I so confused?" "At first, both of us have no idea. A couple of days ago, my mother came to find me, and she happened to run into him, then I just knew it." Bai Han Qi wore an extremely shocked and incredulous expression upon his face. "So, from the very beginning, both of you didn't know about this matter at all?" Bai Luo Yin nodded his head. "What a coincidence!" Bai Han Qi beat against himself, "What do you youngsters call it? It's fate, fate [1] right? Isn't it a very good thing? Your relationship has gotten closer! Later, when you visit your mom, you'd still be able to see him too." Bai Luo Yin was petrified in a flash. 322

Chapter 83: Hurricane sweeps across the sea in his heart! Translator: Estreline Proofreader: grantye -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You don't mind?" "What should I mind about? Your mom left for so many years already... Eh.... No, about this... Your mom and I divorced for so many years already, she should find another partner too. She's a woman, it's a good thing if she could find someone to depend on. I know that your mom was looking for you a lot of times, but you shouldn't bear grudges against her, you shouldn't blame her, after all she's one of few people in this world who sincerely treats you well." Bai Luo Yin lowered his eyelid and glanced on the floor, "I feel that she's really selfish." "Aiya, son!" Bai Han Qi raised Bai Luo Yin's face up with both hands, "Who is not a selfish person? Supposed if it's you, and you dont get married for a lifetime, can you live all alone on your own?" Bai Luo Yin didn't deny it, he didn't admit it too, finally he just simply threw a sentence. "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Bai Han Qi didn't know whether to laugh or to cry, "You didn't let me talk too!" Bai Luo Yin's shoulder collapsed, what should I do? This matter already went this far.... Bai Han Qi's facial expression changed, "Why are we talking about your mom? Weren't we talking about Gu Hai? Listen to my words, later you have to apologize to him, then just see what will happen next." "I'm not going to apologize!" Bai Luo Yin rejected it immediately. "Look at this boy, how can you be so thoughtless like this?" Bai Han Qi became somewhat impatient, "Was it him who made his father and your mother got married? Isn't he also a victim from a broken family? Just because you dont like his father, so you're making it difficult for his son? It doesn't matter if you two really aren't get along well, but he was so good to you..." "I still won't apologize." "You... Even after I said all those words?" 324
你丫上瘾了? "Dad, don't be concerned about this. I know what I should do." Bai Luo Yin pushed Bai Han Qi, "Just go back to sleep." "I'll tell you this! You have to bring Gu Hai back here within three days." "Okay, I know." Bai Han Qi went back to his own room, Bai Luo Yin was still standing at the door for a long time, he felt really upset inside. On one hand, because of the words Bai Han Qi said just now, because of his excessive understanding, it made Bai Luo Yin felt somewhat fond of this old man; on the other hand it's because Gu Hai, if he had known earlier that Bai Han Qi's attitude would be like this, he wouldn't say those kind of words, now even if he wants to take it back he can't. Do I really need to apologize for once? That night, Bai Luo Yin, kept tossing around on his bed and didn't get any sleep, the dark night finally faded, one layer marble white color of the dawn sky emerged on the horizon, Bai Luo Yin finally made a firm resolution to find Gu Hai, no matter what would the outcome be, no matter how much ridicule he would get, he decided to grit his teeth and stand on his ground, to do the utmost effort possible to restore their relationship. Wheels were rolling on the fallen leaves at early morning, Bai Luo Yin rode Gu Hai's spoilt bike full of determination. "Lower your body, lower your face, lower your pride all along, a man bowing his head down doesn't mean anything....." Bai Luo Yin kept muttering to himself like a broken record while cycling. There was a slope in front of him, after the slope there will be a big turning, so Bai Luo Yin tightened the brake as he rode down the slope. But, when he turned at the corner he suddenly dashed towards two persons, because the brake of his bike didn't work really well, even though Bai Luo Yin extended his foot on the ground to stop the bike in time, he still crashed into them. Early in the morning, because of the thick fog, Bai Luo Yin couldn't see clearly who those persons were, he just knew that they were both men, 20 years old above, their heights was similiar. "I'm sorry brother, the brake is not working really well, are you hurt badly?" Bai Luo Yin asked politely. Those two guys just glanced at each other, without saying anything further, they just marched forward and bind his hand.
325
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin was shocked, nowadays they still do this kind of bicycle fraud[1]? Even if it really is a fraud, there is no need to do this kind of thing! Bai Luo Yin realized that their strength wasn't ordinary, he was aware that this situation was far from good, so he swiftly used his hand that wasn't bound yet to swing the bike and crash it toward them, he took advantage at the gap when both of them retreated, he threw the bike away and ran. The alley was quite narrow, the two men spent quite a while to step aside from the bike, by the time they started to chase again, Bai Luo Yin already took a turn. Bai Luo Yin's force was ordinary, but his stamina was strong enough, also he's familiar with the topography around here, how many road curve, how many corner, how many alley..... As long as I keep moving around like this, not even in three minutes, those two won't be able to carry on. But, Bai Luo Yin underestimated these two extraordinary men. Just when he got out from the third alley, he got obstructed by those two sturdy bodies. Bai Luyoin finally could see clearly, those two men in front of his eyes, they weren't a professional hired thug yet they are trained well, their physiques were similar to Gu Hai. Now that he moved around like that and still couldn't drive them out, it's a proof that they had prepared everything in advance, even if he didn't crash into them, he would still be seized. Bai Luo Yin contemplated in his mind, whom did he provoke recently? "Brother, we're sorry, but you have to come with us." One of them fiddled with a handcuff on his hand, and walked step by step toward Bai Luo Yin, Bai Luo Yin was unwilling to be kidnapped by these kind of jerks, he kicked around, until he kicked one of the man's jaw. He didn't expect that Bai Luo Yin would dare to provoke them rashly, he wanted to open his mouth and cursed a lot, but in the end his mouth wouldn't open. The other man saw that his partner was bullied, and he was about to get into a fight with Bai Luo Yin, but the man whose chin was kicked by Bai Luo Yin grabbed him instead. That man let out a few words of curses, then both of them marched towards Bai Luo Yin together, one of them skillfully restrained Bai Luo Yin's nape, and one of them twisted his arm to the back. Bai Luo Yin bent his waist, then aimed two kicks with his pair of feet to their crotches, they soon ran like crazy, cried and screamed yet didn't dare to hit Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin observed that they didn't dare to hit him, his fists was concentrated like a raindrops, his foot continue to kick around like a wind, both of them didn't 326
你丫上瘾了? counterattack at all, they only set their mind on putting handcuffs on his wrist. I'm okay even if you beat me to death, as long as I beat you too. Until Bai Luo Yin's eyes was blindfolded, and his body was tied with a rope like a sticky rice dumpling, these two was really had been beaten inhumanely. "I saw a local policeman, let's get away from here quickly." Bai Luo Yin was thrown into a car, he indistinctly heard two of them were talking in front. "Fuck, I've never been feeling this vexed in my whole life, look at my elbow, he fucking stripped a piece flesh off." "Is it only you? When I was in the army, who would dare to go against me? They would be facing great losses that day." "Didn't you say that just one boy wouldn't be any problem? I told you to call Wang Yu to come here together, but you said there's no need." "How would I know that he still has tricks up his sleeves!" "Okay okay, no need to talk about this anymore, hurry up and start the car, there's someone important waiting over there!" The car then stopped, Bai Luo Yin was carried on their shoulder to get off from the car. "Is he hurt?" A familiar voice can be heard on Bai Luo Yin's ear, his heart suddenly trembled. "No, we wouldn't dare!" "Just look at our faces, you would know that we didn't hit him at all." There was a burst of light laughter, "Thank you!" "No need to say thanks, if you need anything else later then feel free to find us again." "Yes." Bai Luo Yin felt that someone carried his body up, although his entire body was tied, but he could feel that person's body has familiar taste, with his broad shoulders...... The door was pushed open, then Bai Luo Yin was dropped onto the bed. That man started to untie the ropes on Bai Luo Yin's body carefully, but he didn't remove Bai Luo Yin's blindfold, he also didn't remove his handcuff completely, rather, he locked the other iron hoop to one of the bed pillar. Bai Luo Yin wanted to use his hand that was free to remove his blindfold, but it was gripped by someone's hand. 327
Are you Addicted? This touch feels really familiar. Bai Luo Yin's heart was tightened, he really couldn't accept his own suspicion. His other hand was locked to the other of bed pillars too. At that moment, Bai Luo Yin's blindfold was taken off. Gu Hai's face appeared clearly before his eyes, carrying an unrestrained feeling of evil, an extreme that comes after despair, an abnormal excitement and his readiness to risk everything... His last thread of hope was shattered, Bai Luo Yin clenched his teeth and glared at Gu Hai. "What do you want?" "You say what do I want?" Gu Hai's hand caressed Bai Luo Yin's cheeks gently with full of lust. It was as if he was caressing a baby, except that it had less usual intimacy and more silent domination. "Didn't you want to leave me? Didn't you want to cut ties with me? No matter what I won't be able to recover our relationship, right? So, I'll simply imprison you here. Even if you want to go, you won't be able to! You are so heartless. You don't care about me. So, I'll just force you to care, I'll force your affection out of you!" Bai Luo Yin almost died from his excessive anger towards Gu Hai, he didn't want to say a word, he felt that last night he made an extremely stupid decision. "Why aren't you talking?" Gu Hai asked. Bai Luo Yin closed his eyes, he didn't want to look at Gu Hai. You don't want to look at me? If you don't want to look, I have a method to make you open your eyes! Gu Hai leaned his head over, without any preparation, he immediately kissed Bai Luo Yin's thin lips. Bai Luo Yin's body went numb and he opened his eyes in shock. Gu Hai's eyes were still closed, he was completely absorbed, really passionate, with his skilled kissing method and an awkwardness, Bai Luo Yin felt Gu Hai's hands on his waist was slightly trembling. In a flash, a hurricane swept across the sea in his heart! *****

Chapter 84: The Offensive Crazy Confession! Hello! Honestly when I was reading this chapter for the first time I felt like I can feel the intense feelings, the angst in this chapter but then after I translated it I dont think I conveyed those feelings good enough, it still feels lacking somehow compared to the original one. I'm really sorry! But I did my best though XD Big thx to Sienna to make it way better than before... :D I hope everyone would enjoy this! (/-＼*) Sienna7455 : Dun Dun Dun! We've finally arrived at the climax of the much anticipated, kidnapping scene!! >.< It's super exciting and thrilling when proofreading this chapter! I can't help but drown in the feels. Crazy, lunatic Gu Hai is just sooo sexy. Hope you enjoyed it as much as we do! Without any further ado, happy reading and have a nice weekend~
------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You..." An indistinct voice emerged from Bai Luo Yin's throat, but it was soon swallowed by Gu Hai's sound of sucking. Gu Hai went completely insane, the tip of his tongue touched Bai Luo Yin's gums. A moist sensation instantly sent an electric shock throughout his body. He'd never experienced such a huge fluctuation in his emotions before, the roaring fire in Gu Hai's chest rapidly burned himself. It's not enough, it's not enough, he still wants more. In order to prevent Bai Luo Yin's teeth from attacking him, Gu Hai used his hands to suppress both of Bai Luo Yin's cheeks and forced his tongue inside to explore it. The moment when both tongues met, a strong electric current flowed through every single part of his body. Gu Hai wrecked Bai Luo Yin's mouth with violence and greed, he chased Bai Luo Yin's dodging tongue. He bit, licked, sucked, he would've swallowed Bai Luo Yin if he could. This kiss and the kiss between a man and a woman is different, it doesn't have an excessive amount of foreplay or sickening feelings, everything is purely an intense emotion from the bottom of their hearts, exceeding what the body can bear, unleashing a strong devouring power. It was fierce and wild, carrying a destructive power akin to a raging mountains and roaring seas, causing their feelings to fall into pieces. Gu Hai's lips left Bai Luo Yin's lips, his hands were still on both of Bai Luo Yin's cheeks. He pushed all of Bai Luo Yin's hair to the back of his head, completely exposing his handsome face. It's this face that fascinated his eyes, that hooked his soul away, that drained his entire willpower. 330
你丫上瘾了? "Baby..." Gu Hai gazed at Bai Luo Yin absentmindedly, "Actually, you already knew about my heart since the beginning, right? You've known since before, that my feelings towards you are not ordinary, right? When I kissed you, you didn't think that it's unexpected, right?" Bai Luo Yin's face was very handsome, but his facial expression changed every second. "Gu Hai! You..." "Don't scold me yet!" Gu Hai covered Bai Luo Yin's mouth, "Listen to me first, after you're done listening, then you can scold me all to your heart's content. I no longer have a good impression in your heart anyway, so I'll let it collapse completely today. It would be the best for you to hate me. Hating me is better rather than you being aloof and indifferent to me like this. Bai Luo Yin, listen carefully. I, Gu Hai, have never seen you as a brother, I treat you well because I like you, I serve you like a lover, I want to sleep with you on one bed because I want to screw you, I even want to hear you moan in my dreams..." Bai Luo Yin, "....." "Do you think I'm really indecent? Do you think I'm really perverted? I'll tell you this, you can't blame other people, you can only blame yourself! Who told you to be so enchanting? Who told you be so flirty? Who told you to infatuate me just by your smile alone? Bai Luo Yin, don't pretend to be innocent, you've definitely seen these dirty thoughts of mine, and you intentionally seduced me!" "Bai Luo Yin, I'll tell you this, I'll never regret the words I've said today! You want to scold me, right? Then, scold me all you want! The more you scold me, the more excited I am. Every time you scold me, it made me want to fuck you hard! You know that this angry look of yours right now, your tolerance, your awkward expression, everything is really seductive, right? If it were not for I, Gu Hai's decency, I would've taken your pants off now! .... Okay, scold me, I will listen, how will you scold me!" Bai Luo Yin felt like the Heavens is playing a big joke upon himself. He stood firm, under Gu Hai's obscene and insulting words along with splattering saliva, he unexpectedly withstood all of them! "I won't scold you." Bai Luo Yin was unusually calm. Gu Hai's judging eyes lingered upon Bai Luo Yin's face for a moment, he finally revealed a bit of broken smile. "Are you giving up? You regret knowing someone like me right? You want me to get out from your world completely, right? I'll tell you this, I won't! You got me, Gu Hai, completely fall for you and you still want to run away? Not a chance!" If Bai Luo Yin had a wall brick in his hand, he would definitely hit Gu Hai's mouth with it. 331
Are you Addicted? "Gu Hai, you will pay the price for all those words you've said." "I don't care!" Excessive feelings seeped through Gu Hai's eyes, "As long as I can see you everyday, I'm willing to pay any price." "Alright, then listen carefully. This morning, I was planning to come and look for you, I want to apologize to you! Last night, I talked to my dad all night, he doesn't care about your status at all, he even urged me to retrieve you to come back home, and I agreed to do so! But as a result, I got kidnapped early in the morning, got trussed up until here, and I even got humiliated by a lunatic guy. Now you tell me, what should I do?" Gu Hai, "......" "Let me go!" Bai Luo Yin snarled. This time, it was Gu Hai's face that changed every minute. "You.... Are you saying the truth?" Gu Hai was secretly delighted, yet he was also anxious. "Nonsense!!" Gu Hai's gaze was cautious, "If by any chance you are intentionally dooming me, won't I be fooled again?" With an attitude akin to a victim of natural disaster, Gu Hai picked up his cellphone and called Bai Han Qi. "Uncle....." "Da Hai, why haven't you come and play to our house these days? Uncle missed you, your grandma always talks about you again and again everyday." "Uncle, has Yin Zi told you everything?" He spoke while secretly stealing a few glances at Bai Luo Yin. "Yes, Da Hai, Yin Zi is really immature, I asked him to go and find you, he should be there by now, right?" "Oh..." Gu Hai replied disheartenedly, "He might be arriving soon. I'll go and take a look at the door. Then, uncle, see you later..." The situation had turned around. Bai Luo Yin looked composed. His gaze was like a knife, engraved upon Gu Hai's face. "Untie me!" Gu Hai moved closer to Bai Luo Yin, he was still as shameless as before. His expression went from an overbearing, brutish attitude to one with overflowing tenderness. "If I were to untie you, what would I do if you ran away?" 332
你丫上瘾了? "Don't worry, I definitely won't run!" Gu Hai untied the handcuff. Bai Luo Yin was like a ferocious beast, he pulled Gu Hai's arm and kicked him until he fell from the head to the end of the bed, on and off the bed. But those kicks weren't enough for him to vent his spleen, so he grabbed the cold and hard handcuff then continued to beat Gu Hai until he'd completely extinguished his anger and only good, consoling horseplay remained. "Baby, don't get angry." "Who did you say you want to fuck?" Gu Hai covered his head, the corner of his mouth revealed an evil smirk. "A husband who doesn't want to fuck his wife is not a good husband." "You..." Bai Luo Yin chased Gu Hai all over the house. After all those tossing around, they felt tired, Bai Luo Yin calmly sat on the bed while gasping for breath, then he stood up and walked towards the door. "Where are you going?" Gu Hai blocked the door. Bai Luo Yin glared at him fiercely, "It's none of your business!" "That won't do." Gu Hai looked at him earnestly, "We haven't talk clearly yet, and you just want to leave?" "What else is there to be said between us?" A few hundred millions of brain cells that Bai Luo Yin had accumulated for more than ten years, just died because of his excessive anger towards Gu Hai in one day. "I've confessed to you quite passionately, no matter what, you have to give me some reply!" "What kind of reply?" Bai Luo Yin became desperate, "It's a good thing that I didn't beat you to death." "You ask what kind of reply?" Gu Hai leaned on the edge of the doorframe with a wicked and indecent smile, "I've said that I like you, can't you reply me with something?" Bai Luo Yin's ears reddened so much that they became purple. "Gu Hai, can you stop acting crazy?" "Who's acting crazy?" Gu Hai stood up, with a resolute posture and a look of righteousness, he said, "Everything that I said came from the bottom of my heart!" After staying silent for a while, Bai Luo Yin finally uttered a few words. 333
Are you Addicted? "Both of us are guys." "So what if both of us are guys?" Gu Hai said boldly, "Did you forget, that day when we were walking our dog, we even saw a dog and a cat dating." "How is that the same thing?" Bai Luo Yin just wanted to hit his head against the wall and die. Gu Hai still insisted on it and said, "It doesn't matter whether it's male or female, male cat or female dog, just say it to me, do you like me or not?" Bai Luo Yin's Adam's apple moved a bit, after a long time, he finally said, "I don't like you." Gu Hai froze. Bai Luo Yin pushed Gu Hai, "Move, I want to go home!" Gu Hai didn't move at all. Bai Luo Yin became irritated, "What else do you want?" "You don't like me, right? That makes it easy! Then, I'll just continue to lock you up here, and when you like me, I'll let you go!" "Gu Hai!!!" Gu Hai turned his body around, his strong body was tightly wrapped around Bai Luo Yin, who had the same height as him. He pressed his lips against Bai Luo Yin's again. Ignoring Bai Luo Yin's frenzied kicks under him, both of his strong arms surrounded Bai Luo Yin tightly. His tongue kept on sucking Bai Luo Yin's tongue passionately, over and over again. When the metallic smell of blood spread inside his mouth, Gu Hai's energy rose again, as if a thousand horses were running wildly inside him, his heart was thumping so hard that he felt like it's about to jump out. "Yin Zi!" Gu Hai's attitude carried a rather compromising approach. He looked at Bai Luo Yin and said, "I sincerely like you, I know that you've already felt it since the beginning. You can disregard my impudent remarks, but you must believe these words, I won't force you to clarify our relationship, I only wish to know what's inside your heart. You don't have to give me an answer immediately, I can wait, I can pursue you, I can use a lot of love to crush you, I don't believe I can't touch your heart!" "......."

Pls bear with me and my poor grammars ;w; Without further ado, enjoy! ଘ(੭*ˊᵕˋ)੭* ✩‧
------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I've wanted to do a family dinner since before, but me and your father thought about it over and over again, and we felt that we have to be familiar with each other first, so we would be able to eat together well." Jiang Yuan looked at Gu Wei Ting and smiled, "We don't need to introduce them to each other again, right?" "There's no need, both of them already knew each other, let's just eat while talking together." Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin sat on one side, while Jiang Yuan and Gu Wei Ting sat on the other side. Gu Wei Ting then placed one sea cucumber on Bai Luo Yin's bowl. Not even one second later, Gu Hai took the sea cucumber from Bai Luo Yin's bowl and then placed it on his own bowl. Gu Wei Ting's tone was somewhat stiff, "There are still so many sea cucumber on the plate, why did you take it from Luoyin's bowl?" "He doesn't like it!" Gu Hai gave a straightforward reply, "If he eats this he would have diarrhea." Jiang Yuan laughed heartily on one side, "Look at these two kids, their relationship is really good. Oh right, I haven't had the chance to ask this, what month is Xiao Hai's birthday? Both of you were born in the same year, but the month must be different right? We have to know who is the big brother, and who is the younger brother!" Hearing these things, both of them felt like they couldn't swallow their foods, they felt lacking in self-confidence, scared that the other would be older to himself. Jian Yuan opened her mouth first, "Luoyin was born on May of Lunar Calendar, what about Xiao Hai?" Gu Wei Ting interrupted, "He was also on May." 335
Are you Addicted? Because of this statement, both of them became even more nervous. This time, Gu Hai asked Bai Luo Yin first, "What date?" "May 1th." A bolt from the blue! Gu Hai almost fell down from his chair. "What about you?" Bai Luo Yin asked. I can't believe it, you're still older than me? Gu Hai just sat straight, he was afraid of being found out so he put a layer of challenging expression on his face. "I was born on May 1th too, what time did you born?" Gu Wei Ting ruthlessly interrupted Gu Hai, "Weren't you born on May 6th? " Gu Hai, "....." "Hahaha...." Jiang Yuan laughed until her face reddened, "Xiao Hai still wants to be the big brother, who would've thought that it would be snatched by our Luoyin." Gu Hai cursed in his heart, it's completely your fault, you should've just give birth to him a little bit later. An obscure smile appeared on the corner of Bai Luo Yin's lips. Their dinner almost come to an end, Jiang Yuan suddenly opened her mouth and said, "Since your relationship with each other is really good, just move back to our home later! This way it will be more convenient for me to look after both of you. There will be a driver specially to pick up and dropping off both of you to school. It will make me and your father rest assured." Bai Luo Yin put down his chopstick, and he told Jiang Yuan straightforwardly. "I can't move there, eating with you occasionally, is already my limit." Regarding Bai Luo Yin's attitude, it wasn't unexpected by Jiang Yuan, after all he definitely needs some time to accept their family thoroughly. The important matter now is to bring Gu Hai back home, since Bai Luo Yin's relationship with Gu Hai is really good, if Gu Hai went back, it will be possible to convince Bai Luo Yin to go back too. "Xiao Hai, you see, if you're living outside....." "I'm not going back." Gu Hai interrupted Jiang Yuan's words. "I moved back to the house near the World Trade Center, it's really good there."
336
你丫上瘾了? "Oh... So it's like that." Jiang Yuan was somewhat awkward. "If you're pleased living there, then just live there, I just feel that you're living by yourself, won't you feel alone? If by any chance some accident happens, no one would be able to help you." Yes, I'm not only alone, but I feel really lonely too, if you can persuade your son to live together with me right now, I would immediately call you 'mother'. "There's a housekeeper over there." On the contrary, Gu Wei Ting was being tolerant with Gu Hai, as long as Gu Hai is still living inside the scope of his area, he already feels thankful. When eating, Gu Hai put a few slices of deer antler on Bai Luo Yin's bowl, and said in a low voice, "Eat some of this, this can treat impotence." Bai Luo Yin almost grabbed a cup of hot water and pour it on top of Gu Hai's head, his eyes was searching on top of the dining table, then he put all the remaining bull's pizzle [1] on the plate to Gu Hai's bowl. Who ordered all of these foods?! After the dinner finished, the sky was already dark, Gu Wei Ting and Jiang Yuan went back already, Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin strolled on the street together. Like what Jiang Yuan's said, there's no need to disturb these two kids, let them exchange their feelings by their own, perhaps one day when they settled their feelings already, they will return to their home with a pleasant feelings. "I'm still a bit hungry." Gu Hai rubbed his belly. Bai Luo Yin lightly replied, "It's hard to eat until you're full at this kind of place." "Do you want to buy some snacks before going back and eat it?" Gu Hai suggested. Bai Luo Yin was heavily be on guard, "Where to?" "Bring back to my place!" Gu Hai smirked like a gangster. "I'm full already." Bai Luo Yin kept his distance from him. Gu Hai feigned a pitiful expression to make things difficult for Bai Luo Yin, "If you want to then we can go back to your place instead." The real meaning is, if I retreat one step, then you must retreat one step too. "You don't need to go to my house." "Why can't I go?" Gu Hai walked two steps in a hurry and blocked Bai Luo Yin, "Uncle called me several times and asked me to go to your home!"
337
Are you Addicted? "My father was just being polite, and you still think that he really meant it." Bai Luo Yin rejected Gu Hai then continued to walk. Gu Hai pursued Bai Luo Yin closely, "Uncle is an honest person, he would never lies on what he said." Bai Luo Yin stopped his steps, "Do you really want to go?" "Nonsense." "Then lets do this, call me a big brother, and then I'll let you go this time." Gu Hai, "......" The corner of Bai Luo Yin's mouth evoked an arrogant looks, then he raised his hands to call a taxi. "Don't be like this!" Gu Hai pulled Bai Luo Yin's arm that was raised down, "Do you have to be like this?" Bai Luo Yin put on an uncompromising expression. Gu Hai went silent for a while, he fixed his gaze upon Bai Luo Yin, "How about this? If I call you 'big brother' twice..." "?" Bai Luo Yin felt suspicious. Gu Hai moved closer to Bai Luo Yin and said indecently, "Can you let me sleep together with you in your room?" "Even if you called me thousands times it would be useless!" Gu Hai's evil smile broke, even after he suffered rejection, Gu Hai still followed Bai Luo Yin from behind, and shamelessly fixed his gaze at the spot under Bai Luo Yin's waist. Before, he never had this problem; even if a male supermodel was in front of him, that guy wouldn't be different from a pile of woods. But now, when he looks at Bai Luo Yin's tall figure, firm and long legs, tight butt... he can't bear his imagination from running wild. If one day, I could play with them as I please, won't it be as addictive as drugs? It's a long walk, they walked for a long time. In the past on the streets, both of them would talk about a lot of things without being restrained, but today, no one would start to talk first. On one side, someone is having an evil intentions, on the other side, someone's state of mind has changed. Before the boundary is crossed, one still can deceive oneself as well as others and have his own way. Once the boundary has been crossed, every word and action you do became an attitude, this kind of attitude is what determines where your relationship is heading to. 338
你丫上瘾了? The wind blows, a piece of leaf finally fell down even after struggling on the trees for a long time, it swept across Bai Luo Yin's face, floating towards an unknown place. Bai Luo Yin turned his head around and looked at Gu Hai, a leaf was hanging on his collar. Bai Luo Yin reached his hand out to take it off. Gu Hai turned around and smiled at Bai Luo Yin. Gu Hai's beard stubble was emitting a sense of youthfulness and charms under the street lights. This flavour is very peculiar to a person around the age of 17 or 18, there's no impurity, there's no seduction, what they see are purely each other in their eyes. The time when Gu Hai came back to his home, he wore his old clothes, and he looked very charming. Bai Luo Yin couldn't bear it in his heart, how can he let such an outstanding lad be wasted like this. "Gu Hai, can we both still go back to the right path?" Bai Luo Yin finally opened his mouth. Gu Hai called his soul to return back, and asked, "What are you saying?" "I think that our paths have gone bent, can I still pull you back to the right path?" "You will never be able to pull me back!" Gu Hai said without even thinking about it, "The paths that we are on is not only bent, but it's also dangerous. It slants at an angle of 45 degrees, on the side is a pit of poop. There's no other choice but to lean against the wall, pick up speed and then run forward, if we stopped even just for a bit, we definitely will fall into the pit of poop!" "......You really are disgusting." Gu Hai smirked and then went back to Bai Luo Yin's home. "Da Hai! Uncle missed you so much." When Bai Han Qi saw Gu Hai he immediately hugged him and walked inside the house together. "Uncle, I missed you too." Gu Hai almost called him bluntly with 'father'. Bai Luo Yin ignored those two crazy man, and went inside Grandma Bai's room. Gu Hai strolled once on the yard, and finally went inside the kitchen. "Uncle, I'm still hungry tonight, do you have something to eat here?"
339
Are you Addicted? When Bai Han Qi heard Gu Hai's question, he went inside and opened his rice cooker, he saw that there still has nearly two bowls cooked rice left, then he opened the refrigerator looking for something, his face was delighted. "Fortunately we still have a plate of kidneys left, Uncle will heat it for you." Just before sleep, Gu Hai squeezed his way through the door. "Why didn't you let me to sleep together with you? Didn't we sleep together just fine before?" Bai Luo Yin stood firmly, "Before is before, now is now, before I used to like you, now I don't like you anymore." Gu Hai's face was like a steel, he didn't even take it seriously, he shamelessly pointed his finger at Bai Luo Yin's crotch, "Are you afraid that you wont be able to control yourself at night?" Bai Luo Yin kicked Gu Hai to make him get out. After the door shut, Bai Luo Yin felt annoyed in his mind, I can't control myself? You ate half plate of bull's pizzle, a plate of kidneys, and you still have face to ask me that? ****** Translator Note: [1] Bull's pizzle is a dish in China and is considered to be a strong aphrodisiac and is said to have properties similiar to Viagra, so it will increase your sex drive.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator : grantye -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After class, Gu Hai went to the toilet, then a man sneakily ran to Bai Luo Yin's desk. Every students in the class had agreed for one identical opinion, if Gu Hai is there in his desk, there is no way to easily approach Bai Luo Yin. Gu Hai's psychological value wasn't to be compared to ordinary means, he doesn't even consider the class as one brotherhood, since things must go the way he wants. If a female student comes over, the expression showing in Gu Hai's eyes will frighten her to go back. If a male students comes over once, he will never dare to look towards that direction again. "Bai Ge[*], please help me look after this matter." Bai Luo Yin casted a quick glance at this man, "What's the matter?" "I chase after one female student from neighbor class, I want to give her a love letter, but my writing.. you know it too, right? Everytime I write an essay, it always strays from the topic, I'm afraid if I really write the letter myself, she will run away." "What era is it now? You still write love letter ah...." Bai Luo Yin wasn't interested in this matter at all. "Because it is this era right now, only then writing love letter showed true sincerity." The male student bent his knee, he stealthily glanced at the doorway while sticking his face on Bai Luo Yin's school desk, then implored in a low voice, "Bai Ge, the two of us have been in the same class since junior high, this is the first time I beg you for help! You see your penmanship won the national gold medal, your articles are always on the
341
Are you Addicted? newspaper, I really want to borrow your typeface and writing style, what kind of girl you can't chase after, huh?" You Qi mocked from beside, "You should ask him to lend his face too, then it will be even more perfect." "You go away, what are you doing!" The boy casted a sinister glance, then right after that changed his direction to face Bai Luo Yin with his begging look, his palms were put together[1], then he bowed up and down with his hands held in front, "Bai Ge, Bai Ge, please help me." The motion of Bai Luo Yin's eyesight could be seen for a while, "You want me to help you write love letter, right?" "Yes..." The male student nodded his head. "Then you will copy the letter?" "No, I won't be copying the letter, I will send your writing. Didn't I say it before? My writings is shabby and it's too embarrassing to show, in the end you are the suitable one to write it." Bai Luo Yin hesitated for a bit, then nodded his head. The male student was very happy, then at full speed he took a fragrant letter paper from his desk, and one more slip of paper. Gu Hai had already entered the class room from the backdoor. The male student hurriedly sat properly on his own seat, like before he came to Bai Luo Yin's desk. Bai Luo Yin opened the paper, there was written some letters. That girl's name is Dong Na. The preparation was already sufficient, and the lack of time was also taken into consideration.... Bai Luo Yin laughed involuntarily, and soon the smile was replaced by surprise.
Dong Na? 12 rolls of toilet paper? [2] How can you fall for Dong Na? Dong Na and Bai Luo Yin were in the same class for their first year of high school, as she and Bai Luo Yin had been classmates, she would practically recognize his hand writings.
This matter won't be easy to handle..... It seems that for a guaranteed success, I need to add a little bit of touch in the writing style, right, this is how it's done! 342
你丫上瘾了? Within one whole lesson, Bai Luo Yin wrote at a tremendous speed. Gu Hai propped his chin in the palm of his hand, his gaze was bounded at Bai Luo Yin's writing ability.
What is he up to? He doesn't listen to the teacher? Yet he doesn't sleep? Gu Hai knows deeply in his heart, Bai Luo Yin doesn't have a habit of doing homework in class. After class, Bai Luo Yin seldom takes the initiative to turn round. "I'm going down to buy some stuff, are you coming or not?" After Gu Hai's confession, this was the first time Bai Luo Yin invited him to accompany, stated by the one whom he earnestly need, is a really big enticement. Gu Hai needed to secretly gather his enthusiasm, only then he could squeeze out a "NO" from his teeth! But since they are simply men, clenching teeth and tapping feet, to look distracted also means to turn down the invitation. After that, You Qi went in his place.
If I can't find anything on this desk, I'll have to say sorry for my heroic dedication. Gu Hai took out the result of Bai Luo Yin's one-whole-lesson-of-struggle, then held it before his eyes. Consequently, not only it didn't disappoint Gu Hai, but the real hidden thing here, wasn't any kind of something usual. Gu Hai's heart froze for a moment, the fingertips that he used to take out the letter trembled. If we never meet by chance, perhaps my mind will forever be frivolous, if I were to let go of our entwined arms, fear that I will regret it the rest of my life. Your eyes, can easily make my vast mind flits across hurricane, on infertile lands, in the dark of the night, trying to understand the scenery. One long journey, will be enough to make my frail heart wan and sallow, a glimpse of the autumn ripples under every round moon[3], 343
Are you Addicted? as clear as the desired teardrops. If I were to die, how can I be unruffled, how can love be uninvolved, only need to love each other, then life will have no regret.
Are these words written for me? Gu Hai didn't know that these words are from the poetry of Wang Guo Zhen [4], he misunderstood them as the ones Bai Luo Yin painstakingly wrote in admiration for female student. Every sentence he read, was like nails jabbing his heart, he believed that Bai Luo Yin didn't give him an explicit answer before, was to deliberately seize him, wanted to probe his sincerity, who thought, in spite of everything, he likes another person surreptitiously! The shock were more fierce compared to seeing Jin Lulu went to hotel with other man. At first only the mood was influenced, but the latter also affected the most fragile part of the heart. Gu Hai took a deep breath for several times, then with difficulties he put his gloomy face aside.
Being apart from Bai Luo Yin for a short time, this time, I will raise my power as a husband! In the realm of Gu Hai's emotion, he was determined to stop this matter from emerging out, but only seeing Bai Luo Yin be perfectly happy just won't do! Gu Hai also took another piece of paper from under Bai Luo Yin's well-written letter paper, held it himself, and he saw the girl's name, then started to write the attack, with shameful and sharp words. Afterwards, he put a letter written by himself squeezed in the beautiful envelope and tore the one Bai Luo Yin wrote. Bai Luo Yin came back, the envelope was still lying intact in the school desk. Then he tossed a bag of pistachio towards Gu Hai's desk. Gu Hai's heart almost cracked! After such things you've done to me, you still want to
make me happy? Bai Luo Yin took out the letter paper then looked at it for a bit, only to check the name, but didn't check the content, because the hand writings were so similar, Bai Luo Yin sighed silently in his heart, just now I obviously paid attention to my handwriting style,
how come after writing for sometime it changed back to the way before? Let it be then, reckoning the very carefree nature of Dong Na, she will be unable to spot the details. 344
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin wrote the boy's name neatly on the envelope, there was still some minutes before class ended, he quickly ran outside, then he delivered the letter to Dong Na. This eager and axious movement yet again stung Gu Hai's heart. For the whole lesson, he pulled his hair up at the back of the class, even if he was able to counterfeit the love letter, but the one Bai Luo Yin likes in his heart cannot be counterfeited..! The bell rang as the class was finished, just as the class was about to stir restlessly, a wail could be heard from the backdoor. "Who is Guan Da Zhi? Bring him out to me!" The boy, seeing Dong Na called his name herself, walked excitedly yet awkwardly like a marching soldier[5]. Who would've thought that Dong Na would slap Guan Da Zhi in his face, one really loud slap, only breathing sound was heard as the class went silent in a flash. Guan Da Zhi couldn't think the reason, why his love letter was exchanged with a slap in his face!
Even if you don't like me, you shouldn't have insulted me like this! "And you also, Bai Luo Yin!" Dong Na cried like she was out of breath, "Both of us were classmate..... back in year one, you unexpectedly helped him to trick me, helped me to be a fool!" "A fool?" Bai Luo Yin was dumbfounded. Gu Hai also heard without knowing what was happening. "Don't pretend anymore! Don't think that I couldn't recognize it was your writing! I, Dong Na, experienced what you call 'shameless'! If I didn't scold you for now, my surname isn't Dong anymore![6]" As Gu Hai heard what she said, he stood up beside Bai Luo Yin like a hero. "Are you done yet? If you're done then get lost!" Dong Na wiped her tears, then tossed the "Love letter" to Bai Luo Yin's body, and cried while running outside. After the farce event passed, Bai Luo Yin felt that there had to be someone among them who caused the problem, he opened the crappy-mushed-kneaded letter paper again, carefully read the content written there. Only a few words, Bai Luo Yin's face blackened.
345
Are you Addicted? No need to say anything, such kind of handwriting which really looked similar, such kind of shameful and sharp language, it must be the bestowment from the person behind him. After class ended, Bai Luo Yin turned his body around, and shot Gu Hai with his swift and fierce expression. "You secretly changed the content, don't you?" Gu Hai admitted naturally, "Yes!" Bai Luo Yin was really angry that he smashed the desk immediately, "How can you ruins things like this? Does it hinder you from anything?" "You asked what it hinders me from?" Gu Hai's gaze didn't move even the slightest , "You wrote a love letter for a girl, for me not to care about it, you have to oppose the heaven first!" Bai Luo Yin nearly couldn't open his mouth, he understood, he thoroughly understood the situation. "That love letter was the one Guan Da Zhi asked me to write for Dong Na!" After a bellow, what follows was Gu Hai's long silence. He came back from the death door slowly as happiness filled his heart, the nerve that was suffering from the pent-up frustations for two whole class jumped and celebrated, so actually he didn't write the love letter for Dong Na, the letter he wrote was for helping another male student. After drinking the two-class-worth of "medicine" [7], at last there was someone who could give him candied jujube, how can Gu Hai be not cocky? Just now he was still loaded full in hatred, then suddenly it felt like it was applied a sweet honey, he rubbed the brilliant cheeks of Bai Luo Yin in tenderly feeling that was permeating in the air. "Why you didn't say it earlier?" Bai Luo Yin hatefully gnashed his teeth, he immediately took away Gu Hai's hand, then scolded, "You still dare to smile! You already did an immoral action yet you can still smile?" "What immoral action did I do? I tell you, if it was really a letter for another girl, I wrote those words only to show mercy!" The color of Gu Hai's face went back as before, "Even if it was Guan Da Zhi's request for you to write the letter, what can I do since I had made things worse? Who lets him to make you tired? He himself chased the girl but didn't start the work? Such a deceptive person, you shouldn't help him!"

你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin himself felt unable to communicate with Gu Hai, then he carried his bag and walked outside. ***** Translator Note: [*] Bai Ge means Brother Bai (referring to Bai Luo Yin). [1] His palms were put together refers to putting his palm joined together, like someone who's praying. [2] Dong Na? 12 rolls of toilet paper? : remember the girl who gave You Qi a bag of tissue? [3] A glimpse of the autumn ripples under every round moon : I don't know how to translate this one! But the dictionary says that it refers to a beautiful eyes of a girl.......actually I don't know how to translate the the whooooooooole poetry since I'm not good with words..please bear with me Q_Q [4] Wang Guozhen (22 June 1956 - 26 April 2015) was a Chinese poet. (from Wikipedia) [5] walking like marching soldier 顺æ‹? : the term used here is shun4 guai3. This term depicts a situation in which he walked and drawed his left leg and right and forward together then his right leg with left hand forward together and so on. [6] surname : Chinese name is usually constituted for 2-3 individual Chinese character... the first one being their family name. For Dong Na, Dong is her family name. [7] "medicine" : CJD wrote 黄连 (Huang2 lian2) that means Chinese goldthread (Coptis chinensis), rhizome used in medicine...... I don't know the true implicit meaning of this one..but in this case it must be the superstition of Gu Hai! LOL

"Come here!" Gu Hai dragged Bai Luo Yin with one pull, both overbearing and doting expressions were mingling inside his eyes, "Let me tell you, don't throw a temper tantrum at me just because of this kind of petty thing!" Bai Luo Yin was fuming, "Gu Hai, it's not just once or twice, don't you think that you've meddled too much? I haven't done anything with you, right? Look at the situation right now, when the students in the class see me, they immediately took a detour, afraid that they would provoke the almighty you." Gu Hai slightly recoiled his gaze, "So you mean, are you intending to start something with me?"
Great... I've said so much yet every single word are all rubbish to him, the only thing he heard is the useless thing. Bai Luo Yin agitatedly drew out a cigarette. After looking for a long time, he couldn't find his lighter. The male student beside him motioned to light his cigarette, however Gu Hai stopped him. Gu Hai took a lighter to light his own cigarette, then he used the stub of his cigarette to kiss Bai Luo Yin's end of cigarette, taking his time to light Bai Luo Yin's cigarette. The male student beside blatantly stared at them. "What are you looking at?" Gu Hai blew a puff of smoke towards the male student, causing him to choke and cough. The male student left, leaving Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai alone inside the room. "Yin Zi, the words you said just now, is it to confirm whether there's still hope between the two of us?" 348
你丫上瘾了? "Gu Hai, haven't you had enough?" Bai Luo Yin frowned, "I said those things because I want to remind you. I don't care if you want to stir up trouble at home, but don't you dare take your problems to school. There's a lot of eyes watching us! Do you still want us to hang out together in the future? Just take today as an example, do you realize what kind of gossip it would create? Tell me, how am I supposed to behave in front of Guan Da Zhi now?" Gu Hai took his cigarette with trembling hands, "So you won't mind if I stir up trouble at home, are you telling me the truth?"
Aargh!! Bai Luo Yin roared madly in his heart, someone please help me put away this demon! --"Grandma, this is the new massage chair that I bought for you. You'll feel very comfortable leaning on this chair. It can treat your lower and upper backbone, and it can also relieve your fatigue and help you to relax... It's most suitable for an elderly like you." "This is really good, isn't it #Y%?" "It's not that expensive." "Grandpa, I bought you a device for cerebral thrombosis treatment, it's is very convenient and easy to use. Take a look at this button, you can start the device simply by pressing this button. If you're already done, then just turn it off." "Will there be any electrical leakage?" "Not at all, this is absolutely safe." "Uncle! Last time, you mentioned that you wanted to renovate the toilet and bathroom. I've already contacted an interior design company, it's nearby this neighborhood and I've asked around, their price is the cheapest one." "Auntie, your son has just started primary school, right? I've bought a learning machine, please give this to him, it's for him to play as he like." These past few days, Gu Hai had nothing to do, so he purchased things for his house. Huge things such as wardrobe, washing machine, sports equipment... Small things such as bolster, storage boxes, hand warmer... There's nothing that Gu Hai couldn't buy, only things that other people wouldn't expect. A row of ointment was arranged on top of the windowsill, salves for fresh skin treatment, acne, asthma, rhinitis, inflammation, and medicine to raise your vital energy.... Everything was clearly classified, that particular all-purpose hemorrhoid cream had been completely sacked.
349
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin was sticking his shoes inside the room, the glues he used were all bought by Gu Hai. "Here, let me help you, this glue is very sticky. It's not easy to be washed off if it spills to your hands." Gu Hai stretched out his hand. "No need!" Bai Luo Yin used his leg to shove Gu Hai away, "Just mind your own business, I can glue it by myself." Gu Hai squatted beside Bai Luo Yin, observing his masculine hands bustling about, cautiously pinching the tube of glue, daubing it a bit, then smearing it a little... The work were divided evenly between his five fingers, very coordinated and harmonious, there's no trace of spilled glue. The mouth of the glue tube was clean and neat, not a drop of glue was wasted. Bai Luo Yin was very engrossed with his work that when he lifted his eyelids, he just realized that Gu Hai was also looking at him with the same devotion. "From now on, you don't need to queue anymore when buying medicines for grandma. I've already notified the hospital to arrange a fixed date for grandma's medical checkup. When the time comes, a specialist will deliver the medications. This is their phone number, you'll only need to contact them and set the date, then it's already settled." Bai Luo Yin scowled, "I refuse, I'd rather queue by myself. I don't want to trouble other people." "What do you mean by troubling him?" Gu Hai actually managed to squeeze the business card into Bai Luo Yin's hand, "It's his job. Even if you don't contact him, he'll contact you on his own." Bai Luo Yin pointed at Gu Hai's forehead with his hand, "I'll tell you this, don't you use the family card on me!" Gu Hai laughed, "How did you know?"
Only an idiot can't see through it! Bai Luo Yin's heart is like a clear mirror, so recently, Gu Hai has learnt to think smart. He no longer handle things on his own, instead he especially tried to capture the hearts of his family, so that Bai Luo Yin will feel sorry in his heart. Everyone knows well that Bai Luo Yin's weak point is his family, it could be said that this guy truly seizes every available opportunity! "There's a big pimple growing on my forehead, help me to squeeze it!" Gu Hai suddenly butted his forehead against Bai Luo Yin's chest. Bai Luo Yin pushed Gu Hai's fringes aside and looked at it for a moment. Indeed, there is a big pimple. 350
你丫上瘾了? "It's not ripe yet! Wait until it's ripe enough before squeezing it." Bai Luo Yin evoked an amusing smile from Gu Hai, "You even differentiate whether this thing is ripe or not?" "Of course." Bai Luo Yin assumed a mock-serious manner, "If you squeeze it when it's unripe, it will bleed, so it won't heal easily." "No problem, just squeeze it for me, I can't bear it anymore." Gu Hai sat on the chair aside, forcing Bai Luo Yin to walk towards him. Both of his thumbs were settled on the pimple in the middle of Gu Hai's forehead, squeezing lightly. Seeing no reaction at all from Gu Hai, he started to use more strength. Squeeze, squeeze, squeeze... then, blood flowed out, yet Gu Hai didn't give out any response, his eyes were fixed upon the outline of Bai Luo Yin's waist and abdomen, admiring him up and down. Afterwards, his hand stretched out.
As expected, his face is thick enough that even though he has bled so much, he doesn't react at all... Bai Luo Yin was thinking, when all of a sudden, he felt someone forcefully kneading his butt. His body abruptly went taut, aiming his fierce eyes at Gu Hai. The main culprit took on a euphoric expression, his wicked palms were gently stroking at those full, elastic and perfectly round bums. A moment later, they trailed along the sexy curve of his waist and started to push them forward. "Do you have some kind of a death wish?" Bai Luo Yin snarled and hauled Gu Hai's collars, while Gu Hai grasped at his arms. Both of them tussled for a while, falling down together on the bed. Gu Hai's breath immediately turned heavy and loud. Bai Luo Yin's heartbeat began to quicken, his vision suddenly became blurry. Gu Hai let out an evil and lustful smile, gnawing at Bai Luo Yin like a ravenous wolf. Since the last forceful kiss, Gu Hai had been yearning for this kind of taste, yet Bai Luo Yin never gave him any chance to come close. Hence, Gu Hai could only swallow his saliva secretly. But today, he couldn't hold it back any longer. Even if after this, he must suffer a brick wall between the two of them, he will accept it. His mind had been bewitched ever since the first kiss. All along, Gu Hai had always believed that kissing is only a foreplay to love making, nothing more. However, the feeling when he kissed with Bai Luo Yin was obviously different. Every time his tongue breached Bai Luo Yin's mouth, he felt as if he owned the entire world. Bai Luo Yin was on the verge of pulling Gu Hai's hair off, a weird sensation ilnside his heart. When he introspected himself and his feelings, truthfully, he really couldn't reject it, to the extent that it actually felt a little bit... comfortable. 351
Are you Addicted?
How can this be? Why is this world so messed up? Gu Hai's rhythmic chest was glued to Bai Luo Yin's arm. Bai Luo Yin could sense his impatience, frantic and predatory. Every time Bai Luo Yin resisted, and no matter how tight he pulled at his hair, it only increased Gu Hais's urge to screw him. The jacket was abruptly pulled off, exposing the T-shirt inside. Gu Hai's hand groped within. Bai Luo Yin's heart nearly burst open, he felt his own lower abdomen went cold. His arms started to fight desperately, to the point of using his whole strength to yank down Gu Hai's head above him. "Stop it!" A pair of sharp swords darted from Bai Luo Yin's pupil. He didn't know whether his own voice was to warn Gu Hai or to warn himself. Gu Hai's breathing was violent, his hands remained at Bai Luo Yin's chest, right on top of his nipples, and he really wanted to touch it. "Da Hai, Yin Zi, let's eat!" All of a sudden, Bai Han Qi shouted, causing both of them to become motionless at once. Bai Luo Yin pushed Gu Hai away persistently, tidying his own clothes and calming down his breathing for a moment, then walked out. At night, before sleep, Gu Hai reclined in his own quilt, his bulge below was protruding. It had yet to erect fully, but that strong, enormous bulge could easily scare people off. "Hey, Yin Zi, that thing of yours is very soft, right?" Bai Luo Yin closed his eyes, not paying any attention to this beast in heat. Gu Hai couldn't bear to rub his palms along, barbarously using his foot to rub Bai Luo Yin's butt that was covered the blanket. "Are you sensitive here? When I touched you today, do you feel ticklish?" Bai Luo Yin turned around to punch at Gu Hai's stomach twice, "Are you done or not? Can you stop disturbing me?" "Luckily, you didn't aim lower, or else my thing would've been broken." In other words, I'm... hard...
352
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin's face whizzed as if he was burned, turning his back uncomfortably, he ignored Gu Hai. Who can be comfortable talking about this kind of things? A pervert
jerking off behind your back, teasing you indecently, involving you in his sexual fantasy. It won't be as bad if he didn't speak frankly, they are both men, what do they have to hide? Yet, this pervert doesn't only act indecent, but his mouth is even more filthy. He literally told you everything. Isn't he just humiliating you on purpose?

Fang Fei walked out from the office building and she saw Gu Hai's car parked down there. She waved her hand towards Gu Hai. Gu Hai smiled and then he rolled the car window down. "It's been a really long time since the last time I saw you, where did you go these days?" Fang Fei said while opening the door on the right side of the car and sat inside. "I didn't go anywhere, just two places, school and home." "Go home?" Fang Fei was surprised all of a sudden. "So, the cold war between you and your father has already ended?" "I didn't go back to that house." "You're still living at your new place?" Gu Hai only smiled, not saying anything else. Fang Fei fixed her gaze on Gu Hai, "Are there any good things happening recently? You always seem very happy inside....." "What good things could happen to me?" Gu Hai tapped his fingers against the steering wheel rhythmically, "Even if there is, there are still some things that make me extremely anxious!" Fang Fei's expression became restless, "Don't tell me that you came here because you want to seek for my help? I knew it, if you came here it's never going to be a good thing." "No." Gu Hai replied firmly, "I just want to discuss something with you." 354
你丫上瘾了? "Discuss something?" There was a hint of suspicion on Fang Fei's expression, "Jin Lu Lu came back to find you again?" "It barely has anything to do with her." "Look, I guess it's really because of her, can you be a little bit more resolute? She's that kind of person....." "Stop." Gu Hai raised one of his hands up, "It really isn't because of her." "Then, what happened?" There was a hint of arrogance upon Gu Hai's handsome face that appeared before her eyes, as if the sentences he's going to say will bring him a lot of pride. "The one I like right now is a guy." Fang Fei's eyeballs almost fly out from the car window. "No... Xiao Hai, stop fooling around. Tell me the truth..." Fang Fei spoke incoherently, her hand kept on prodding at Gu Hai's strong body nonstop, "How can you be like 'that'? You see, you're very manly, even if I were to pick someone randomly on the street, he won't be as manly as you." Gu Hai sneered, "Maybe I have way too much male hormones, woman just can't satisfy me anymore." Fang Fei laughed, "Boy, you're only scaring me right? Jin Lu Lu hit you hard and now you're taking a revenge on the society, right?" ".... I'm telling you the truth." Fang Fei's laughter gradually stiffened, her eyes were fixed on Gu Hai for a while. She saw that Gu Hai's face became more and more imposing, with no intention to joke at all, she suddenly felt helpless. "You... Actually, what happened to you?" "I'll tell you after we go back." ...... Fang Fei poured a cup of coffee for Gu Hai, she placed it on top of the sofa, she looked at Gu Hai with a face full of worries. "I also don't know why do I like him so much, I'm sure my sexual orientation is normal, I'll never be interested at another guy while walking on the street. But it's not like that when it comes to him, if I were to be separated from him even just for one day, I will miss him, I miss him so much that I won't be able to sleep at night. I just want to treat 355
Are you Addicted? him well, treat him well unconditionally, I wish I could put the entire world into his hands." "This guy really has a lot of charms!" Once Bai Luo Yin's charms was mentioned, Gu Hai talked so much like a chatterbox, as soon as he opened his mouth, he couldn't stop. He told Fang Fei again all the things that he said to others for countless times, he spoke extravagantly [1] and with a high spirit. It was as if Bai Luo Yin is the most almighty person in the entire world, and between all living creatures in the three realms of heavens, earth, and hell, Bai Luo Yin is second to none. Fang Fei had completely turned into a stone. After all these years, being Gu Hai's cousin, she had never seen Gu Hai being possessed completely like this, not to mention that Gu Hai even praised someone so much like this, it's really strange. It's exactly this kind of expression, this kind of attitude, that caused Fang Fei to become dumbfounded.
Who is this guy? He successfully made my little brother became to go crazy like this! "What's wrong with all these guys now? Letting go of such a beautiful woman, but insisting on being together with another guy." "All?" Gu Hai slanted his gaze towards Fang Fei, "There's another guy close to you who's like this too?" "Not only that, but there are so many guys like that. Did you forget? I'm working at the communication media field, I engaged with the media for the whole day, I saw a lot of them. Someone whom I knew well, who is also my best friend's ex-boyfriend, I don't know what's wrong with him, but suddenly he's with another guy already. He's feeling anxious all the time too, his parents urged him to go steady quickly, but he still hold on to another guy all day long, that's why he feels very anxious! You too, it serves you right!" Gu Hai moved his lips, "I'm not anxious because of this." Fang Fei's expression was slightly sluggish, "Then, why?" "He didn't accept me." "So, you disturbed me for half day just because he doesn't like you back! What were you actually doing with that blind fool?" The term that Fang Fei used made Gu Hai felt like half of his life spirit had gone. Gu Hai's face changed, "It's not like he doesn't like me too, he just doesn't accept me, I feel that he has some feelings towards me too." 356
你丫上瘾了? "About this matter, I can't help you, I don't want to mislead you, supposed if my aunt knew, she'd definitely come to find me....." Fang Fei whispered in a small voice. "Let's do this then, call your best friend that you told me earlier and ask him to come here, I'll talk with him." ..... "Both of you can just talk here, I'll go." Fang Fei grabbed a cup of coffee and then went back to her own bedroom. A tall and handsome guy sat in front of Gu Hai, they were sitting across each other, they didn't even seem like they wanted to chat, it's more like they wanted to fight. "So what you mean is, he allowed you to live at his house, and he didn't even refuse to sleep on the same bed with you?" Gu Hai nodded his head, "Yes, our relationship is just like what I just told you earlier, it's good enough, and also quite intimate. But he just didn't let me touch him, he didn't admit that he likes me too." "What's there to admit? That guy raised his lips and smiled, "Hasn't he admitted it already?" Gu Hai's eyes focused on that guy's thin lips, he liked what he just heard. "Since he heard your confession already, and he showed no sign of rejection or any kind of expression, it just proved that he'd accepted it at the bottom of his heart. Think about it, supposed if you're a straight guy, then another guy confessed his feelings to you, won't you turn hostile towards him? Will you still allow him to live at your house? Of course you will be scared and avoid him! I'm not saying that he's abnormal, what I mean is that he accepted you already. Perhaps, he already knew about it since long time ago, he simply pretended not to know about it and played with you deliberately." "Actually, I understand what you just said, but the problem is....." "He doesn't let you to touch him?" That guy finished Gu Hai's words. Gu Hai stood up and then shook his hands. "Actually this problem, it's hard to resolve this problem, the key depends on you." Gu Hai waited patiently for his instruction. "Just four words, only if you dare!" Gu Hai narrowed his eyes slightly. ..... 357
Are you Addicted? Monday afternoon, a physical examination would be held at the school. You Qi fiddled with his clothes zipper while blurting out whatever came into his mind: "I heard that one of the physical examination this time required us to take off the clothes completely, 20 students per one checkup room, that part of every student needs to be checked." Bai Luo Yin seemed to be ignorant, but he was actually trying to conceal his distraught mind. After class, Bai Luo Yin went to look for the vice class leader, he was in charge of all the matters regarding the physical examination. "Please don't put Gu Hai and I in one group during the physical examination." "Why?" He was surprised, "You have a very good relationship with Gu Hai, right? I intentionally arranged both of you together in a one group!" "...." Bai Luo Yin facepalmed, "You don't need know, just don't put me in one group together with him." "Come, let's go to do the examination." Gu Hai patted Bai Luo Yin's shoulder. Bai Luo Yin replied lightly, "We're not in the same group, our group will go there after class." Gu Hai's complexion changed. "There's no class anyway, let's just go together. If you wait inside the classroom, you will feel so bored!" "I'm a little bit sleepy, I'll sleep first." After Bai Luo Yin finished his words, he immediately laid his face on top of his desk. Gu Hai had no choice but to walk away. Arriving at the gym, he saw the students from another class walking out in groups, while discussing about that 'thing'. Gu Hai then realized that the examination inside required to check 'that part' as well. No wonder that boy doesn't want to be together
with me in one group, he definitely knew about this in advance! Gu Hai was upset, but he was also pleased, do you think that if I just miss this one opportunity to see it, then I won't be able to see it at all? I can just strip you off tonight! Little boy, you're really making it difficult for me. Bai Luo Yin was just barely slouching inside the class, when the vice class leader went inside and called everyone. "The previous group is almost finished, the next group must go quickly. Because there are so many classes doing the physical examination together, so the queue has become 358
你丫上瘾了? so long. I was looking for the group with the least people, after I checked it, the genitals checkup is the fastest....." Countless coughs and whistles could be heard inside the classroom, every girl inside the class blushed, why do the guys still need to do check up on that thing? When Bai Luo Yin went down, the previous group still hadn't finished their examination yet, they were queuing outside the genitals checkup room. Gu Hai turned his head, and winked at Bai Luo Yin from a distance. Bai Luo Yin was aware of it, but he simply ignored Gu Hai's troublesome stare. "Class 27, please enter right away." Bai Luo Yin fixed his gaze on Gu Hai who entered the room, then the door closed firmly, Bai Luo Yin let out a sigh of relief. Gu Hai was the first one to take his trousers off. Ten seconds later, the examination room's door suddenly opened, then seven or eight students ran out from the room. You Qi was bewildered, "Why did your examination ended so fast?" One student among them gestured at his crotch, there was fear upon his face, "I'll just wait until the next group, this is really embarrassing to show!" Several students recoiled their heads and scurried off to the very back of the line. As a result, the physician walked outside, and said with wrinkled eyebrows, "Why does this group only has a few students? Some of you, come inside." Bai Luo Yin was dumbfounded. The physician pointed at Bai Luo Yin's side and said, "I mean you guys, why are you still not moving, hurry up!" *** T/N: [1] 'he spoke extravagantly': the literal translation of 'extravagantly' is 'like flowers cascading from the sky' or 'like a deluge of heavenly flowers', meaning Gu Hai praised Bai Luo Yin so much with extravagant elaboration.

Chapter 89: Physical Examination Crisis Continued. Hi guys! Sooo.. Sienna told me that she is going to take a break too for a while, so for now I'll do this alone XD I ll do my best (* ᴗ *)و Well, enjoy~~ We're getting closer to their first intimate scene!! (//Д//).:*♥
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The male students were divided into three lines, Bai Luo Yin was glad because he stood behind Gu Hai, with Gu Hai's back facing himself. The physician walked around the male students, carefully examining their growing state, attempting to uncover the high estrogen secretion level inside their body. "You, come here." One short and small student with blushing face walked into a small room beside. You Qi asked Bai Luo Yin in a small voice, "What happened to him?" Bai Luo Yin told You Qi calmly, "Two eggs, one big one small." You Qi chuckled. Gu Hai turned around and looked at those two guys behind him, "Why are you two so happy?" When You Qi saw the thing that hangs from Gu Hai's lower body, the smile on his face stiffened in a flash, he shifted his gaze elsewhere. Fuck! Now, I understand why those
guys ran out just now, supposed if this guy's thing erects, just imagine how magnificent it will be! Really, if I keep on comparing our things, it'll only make me angry! You Qi's brain had already played so many vulgar pictures; if Gu Hai's thing penetrating a little girl with a matchstick-like body, said girl would definitely vomit on the spot! The physician examined the students from behind, until the moment he reached Bai Luo Yin, he smiled and patted his back. "Little boy, your body is not bad, you can become a pilot!" The magnesium lights focused on the thing between Bai Luo Yin's legs, Bai Luo Yin calmly let everyone see it, what kind of man who isn't happy to show off his own thing! 360
你丫上瘾了? However, he only has one exception, when Bai Luo Yin encountered those wretched eyes, he really wished he could gouge his eyeballs out. When the physician arrived at Gu Hai, he immediately held his breath.
This kid, not only his lower part is frightening, but his expression is very frightening too. The physician didn't dare to examine it carefully, he just walked away from Gu Hai's side. After school, some students were gathering together and gossiping happily at the backdoor. "Did you hear? Today, after the physical examination had just finished, that male physician was beaten up!" "Hahaha.. Really? Why?" "Why, you say? It's definitely because he hurt someone's self-esteem! Think about it, everyone who's growing badly got called alone to the small room, while the other students saw it all, couldn't he just do it in private?" "It makes sense." Bai Luo Yin was tidying his school bag, he was just about to go back, when suddenly he heard the vice class leader calling him from behind. "Bai Luo Yin, there's something I need to tell you, is it convenient to talk now?" Bai Luo Yin walked out from the class, and the vice class leader lead him to a boiler room, there were only two of them inside. "About this, you should prepare yourself mentally first, it's not certain yet, it's just a suspicion of this possibility...." Bai Luo Yin just simply uttered two words, "Say it!" The vice class leader looked around for a short while, then he whispered to Bai Luo Yin: "They drew your blood on today's examination, right? It's to examine your liver, your test results came out as positive, it's.... they suspect it's hepatitis B. Of course, it's not certain, maybe it's just hepatitis B virus carrier, it's not only you in our class, there are two more students! All of you are still suspected cases, go to the hospital to do a further checkup." Bai Luo Yin's face changed, "How can it be? I did the examination during the first year of high school, there wasn't any problem back then!"
361
Are you Addicted? "This... You know it too, liver disease is contagious, maybe you came into contact with a hepatitis B patient, so you're infected." "But, I've had immunization injection!" "It's not effective! Just now, I went to those two, they're the same with you, they had immunization too, but they still have this problem. About this thing, you'd better go to the hospital to make a definite diagnosis, if you found out early, then you can treat it early, and maybe it can be cured. Don't worry, I won't tell this to the other students." After he said that he walked away, and only Bai Luo Yin was left alone in the room, dumbfounded. Gu Hai waited for Bai Luo Yin inside the class for a long time, but he didn't see Bai Luo Yin coming back at all, then he went to the boiler room to search for Bai Luo Yin, but he couldn't find him too. He tidied Bai Luo Yin's bag then closed the door and walked out. Finally, Gu Hai found Bai Luo Yin on the field. "School has finished, you're not going back home, what are you doing, sitting here on the field?" Gu Hai asked. Bai Luo Yin didn't say a word, his face looked a little miserable. Gu Hai sensed something weird, then he squatted down and looked at Bai Luo Yin, "What happened?" "Nothing. I just want to stay here for a while." Gu Hai teased Bai Luo Yin, "Just because I looked 'there' a couple of times, now you became unhappy?" "Get lost!" Bai Luo Yin's face darkened. Gu Hai smirked, and he pulled Bai Luo Yin with his hand, "Get up, it's not good to sit on the field during this season, it's too cold, let's go! Go home with me!" Bai Luo Yin let out a long sigh, "I don't want to go home." As far as Gu Hai can remember, there were only two times when Bai Luo Yin didn't want to go home. The last time was when his family background was exposed by the rich kid, this time he didn't know what the reason is, but the problem must be serious.
This guy looks tough outside, but he actually has a sensitive heart. "Why don't you want to go back? Can you talk about it to me?" Gu Hai made his expression look a little more affectionate as much as possible. Bai Luo Yin instantly refused, "I can't." 362
你丫上瘾了? "But, you can't just keep sitting here! Come! Let's go to my place!" Bai Luo Yin hesitated for a while, but he still got up and left the school with Gu Hai. On the way home, Bai Luo Yin thought about a lot of things, people are always like this, whenever they have something looming above their heads, they would always think that it's not a problem. Now that there is such a possibility, every anxiety and worry came. Women usually keep tossing around because they think too much, they think about everything very thoroughly, while men usually feels uneasy because they think too far, they think very deep. Especially for men at their age, they're still immature, or half-mature, their thoughts keep on swaying, it's so easy for them to get emotional over little things, they somewhat lacked rationality, unable to process everything thoroughly and calmly. Bai Luo Yin thought about it, supposed if I really have that disease, then what's going
to happen to my father? There are two sick people already in the house, both with incurable disease, they need to keep taking medicines for life. If I need it too, how will my father keep on living? What kind of job will I get with this kind of disease, and how big the restriction it will bring! All of my great plans for the future, does it have to be ruined like this?..... "Yin Zi, I'll really bring you to my place." Bai Luo Yin was constantly immersed in his own thoughts that he didn't hear any of Gu Hai's words at all. It was a long journey, by the time they parked their vehicle, the sky had turned completely dark. Bai Luo Yin then realized that he had been brought to Gu Hai's place, but it doesn't matter, when a person suffered a huge hit, he no longer cares about these trivial things in life. Gu Hai opened his refrigerator and took some frozen dumplings out. "I only have these, you can eat it." Gu Hai had already asked the housekeeper to go back, so he could only cook it by himself. He didn't know how long he should cook it, so he just tasted it without stopping. Not even three minutes since he put it on the pot, he had started to taste it, after he tasted it a few more times, and he finally felt that it was fully cooked, he turned off the fire in hurry. Gu Hai passed a bowl to Bai Luo Yin. "Eat the dumplings while they are still hot." 363
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin didn't even move, his eyes continued to stare at the scenery outside the window. This is the 18th floor, the view is very vast, even the nightscape from faraway is plainly visible. "You even want me to feed you?" Gu Hai looked at Bai Luo Yin while pondering. Bai Luo Yin didn't give an answer. Gu Hai patiently took one dumpling, he bit half of it, and then passed the other half near Bai Luo Yin's mouth. "Baby, come on, open your mouth, eat this." Bai Luo Yin stared at Gu Hai without any expression, then he suddenly said: "I have hepatitis B." Gu Hai's hand that was holding the ladle paused for a while, and then he asked: "Who told you that?" "The vice class leader, he said that the test results had come out, it seems that there's something abnormal with my liver, they suspect it's hepatitis B." Gu Hai only replied carelessly, "Don't listen to his nonsense, he has no idea about what he said! Come on, eat this dumpling first, if you don't eat it then it's going to be cold!" Bai Luo Yin suddenly got angry, he just started to flare up at Gu Hai without any sign. "Isn't it you who is clueless? I told you already that I have hepatitis B, but you still want to eat with the same chopsticks and bowl with me, do you want to die?" Gu Hai's expression also changed, he firmly stuffed the half-eaten dumpling into Bai Luo Yin's mouth, and then he used the chopsticks that Bai Luo Yin had just used to take another dumpling and eat it himself. Bai Luo Yin's heart stopped for a short while, "Gu Hai, do you really have to go this far for me? "It's not about how far I will go for you, but it's just impossible for you to have this disease." "I have it!" Bai Luo Yin raised his eyebrows, "I said I have it, so I have it!"
This kid, why is he so stubborn? "Okay, okay... You have it..." Gu Hai grinded his teeth, "But, just let it go for today and entertain me, just do it however you want to do it, I'll be together with you, okay?" "You're an idiot!" Bai Luo Yin shouted.
364
你丫上瘾了? "Yes, I'm an idiot!" Gu Hai shouted back at Bai Luo Yin, "Today, I'll let you see what an idiot can see but you can't! You think that you're sick, right? You don't want to hear anything else anyway, right? Okay, I will cure you completely today, I will take all of your disease away!" After he said that, he held one dumpling in his mouth and then he passed it to Bai Luo Yin, mouth-to-mouth. Bai Luo Yin clenched his teeth tightly, but Gu Hai used his hands to pull them apart with force, until he actually stuffed half of them inside. **** So, as we all probably know, next chapter is the exciting and naughty one ;p I just want to ask you guys a question, actually, what word do you think I should use for... 'that'? I wonder if you are okay with a little bit vulgar word, or should I just use softer word? This is the first time for me so I have no idea at all XD Let me know! I need some advices, thx!

Chapter 90: One Crazy Night. Hello! Im back again with another chapter~~ I'm sorry if my translation is somehow awkward, since honestly this is my first time translating such naughty sceness (//Д//).:*♥ Also there are some medical terms that I'm not really familiar with, pardon any mistakes XD Warning: this chapter and next chapter contains mature content (๑✪ω✪๑) Enjoy, loves~
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anger and affection intertwined deep inside Bai Luo Yin's eyes, he felt like he went to the wrong place, if he knew earlier that Gu Hai would adopt this kind of attitude towards him, he would rather go back to his own home. Gu Hai saw that Bai Luo Yin stood up and walked towards the door, he pulled him firmly yet carefully, how can I forget this? He's open to persuasion, but not to coercion,
if someone had this kind of problem, who would be calm still? Now is exactly the time when he needs my consolation the most, why do I keep pressuring him? "Yin Zi." Gu Hai chased him with a large strides, then embraced him at the doorway. "Dont be scared, it's okay, listen to me, Saturday lets go to the hospital to do the check up, I'm sure there won't be anything wrong." Bai Luo Yin's voice was somewhat low and sad, "Can you guarantee it?" "I can!" Gu Hai turned Bai Luo Yin's body around, forcing him to look at himself, "What I said is really accurate, if I say that you dont have any disease, that means you definitely dont have any disease!" Although he knew that Gu Hai was only comforting him, but Bai Luo Yin felt much better in his mind. Gu Hai patted Bai Luo Yin's head, "Be a good boy, and eat the dumplings." "Then just in case, today you can't get close to me." Gu Hai hasn't ate the dumplings yet but he choked already, I can't get close with you?
Then why do you think I brought you here? After they ate the dinner, Bai Luo Yin took a bath, and Gu Hai was watching TV outside. 366
你丫上瘾了? He was supposed to watch TV, but the volume is not louder than the sound of water coming from inside the bathroom, Gu Hai's eyes couldn't stay on the TV for more than 5 seconds without taking a glance at the bathroom door. Indistinct sound of the water can be heard one moment, and then paused the next. The visual of Bai Luo Yin showering keeps appearing inside Gu Hai's brain, now he definitely took his
underpants off already, now he should be rubbing his back, now he should be washing the foams from his body, right? There's no sounds for a while now, is he washing 'that' place?..... Gu Hai's hand scratched the sofa cushion. After Bai Luo Yin finished his bath, he wrapped himself in a bath towel and went out. "Do you have any spare pyjamas here?" Bai Luo Yin asked. Gu Hai returned from his deep thoughts, "Yes, I have one in my room, just wait here, I'll take it for you." Bai Luo Yin went inside Gu Hai's room with him. Gu Hai searched in his wardrobe, he found a sleep robe that hasn't been worn yet, then he gave it to Bai Luo Yin, "Wear this first." Perhaps Bai Luo Yin had a lot of things weighing his mind, perhaps he doesn't feel like fussing about these kind of trivial things, he just took off his towel immediately, his perfect posture exposed in front of Gu Hai. Gu Hai's heart skipped a beat, his breath was like a beating drum, every breath was particularly clear, although he saw it already in the afternoon, but that was with ten other pairs of eyes, now it's only for his eyes. Back then it was a glance from faraway, now it is a wild admiration from a close range. Bai Luo Yin opened the robe, he put it on and then walked out. Although it was just a glance of a graceful sight, but it was enough to make Gu Hai's heart bursted.
Is this some kind of silent hint? Bai Luo Yin sat in front of the computer, he fixed his gaze on the screen, his attention was focused on them thoroughly, all he could think about was the health examination test result. Playing a game, listening to the music, his mind gets more and more irritated, finally he typed two words "Hepatitis B" on the Baidu, then all kinds of information regarding Hepatitis B appeared in front of Bai Luo Yin. "Virus Hepatitis B is one kind of microorganism, it is infectious, also hard to control; there are so many people who carries this virus, the more inapparent the infection is, the harder to control it; hepatitis B is likely slow in showing effect, it needs a long time 367
Are you Addicted? to cure it, needs a lot of rest, it will impact the studies as well as career, it might cause a mental pressure and financial burden for the patient, and it might develop to other disease such as liver's chirrosis, or liver's cancer, as well as death...." Those dumpling Bai Luo Yin just ate suffocated his chest, made him unable to breathe. After finished his shower, Gu Hai went out and saw Bai Luo Yin sat in front of the computer with his half wet and half dry hair, his sexy Adam's apple moved frequently, his tightly closed lips above the firm jaw, his constantly changed expression, his silent toughness in the middle of the melancholies, it felt like all the brightness in the room was absorbed by his face. Gu Hai walked at a brisk pace towards Bai Luo Yin, he bent down slightly, both of his arms embraced Bai Luo Yin's chest, he brought his thin lips near Bai Luo Yin's ears, a heat seeped through his voice. "What are you looking at?" Bai Luo Yin's heart was irritated, this guy just keeps sticking closely to me, can I not
scolding him? "Go away for a bit! You're really annoying!" Gu Hai still had his smiling expression with full of evil intentions, "Why, now you learned how to welcome with reluctance already?" Bai Luo Yin grinded his teeth, "I'll warn you for the last time, stay away from me!" "Why are you like this?" Gu Hai felt wronged, "You were the one who obviously seduced me first, now you're dressing up like nothing happened, you're the worst!" Bai Luo Yin annoyed, "When did I seduce you?" Gu Hai's ambiguous stare scrutinized Bai Luo Yin's body, "Just now who was the one changed his clothes in front of me, intentionally changed them slowly? Don't think I can't see it, you really don't have any good intentions! You let me look at you covetously, right? You intentionally let me get excited, right?....."
Aaaaaahh!!!!!! Bai Luo Yin immediately took a tablecloth and stuffed it into Gu Hai's mouth. ..... "Why did you come here?" Bai Luo Yin was ready to sleep already when Gu Hai pushed the door and went inside, he couldn't help but to ask him. 368
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai replied while shutting the door close, "I came here to sleep!" "You have so many rooms at your place, why do you have to sleep in this room? I told you before, right? Don't get too close to me, do you know that it can be transmitted through sweat as well?" "What else can it be transmitted through?" Gu Hai asked while removing his clothes. Bai Luo Yin felt that Gu Hai had compeletely ignored his worries, even if he said a lot of things it would be just a nonsense for Gu Hai, so he immediately got off the bed, and planning to find another room to sleep. But, even before his feet stepped on the ground, Gu Hai threw him back onto the bed. "I remember that it can be transmitted through saliva as well, no?" After he said that, Gu Hai bent down on top of Bai Luo Yin's body and suddenly placed a kiss on him. Bai Luo Yin's robe began to unravel, Gu Hai's leg touched Bai Luo Yin's skin, their body heat started to mix together at this moment, Gu Hai's eyes were poisoned with an evil red shade. His teeth nibbled lightly at Bai Luo Yin's thin lips, he could feel his resistance and restlessness, he could feel the fear from the bottom of his heart. Gu Hai brought his lips to Bai Luo Yin's ear. Bai Luo Yin's ears were soft, those who born with a soft ear usually couldn't resist persuasions. "Yin zi. Don't be afraid. Nothing will happen. Even if something were to happen, I will accompany you." Gu Hai's voice was not deep, but it had one kind of intense soothing effect on Bai Luo Yin's heart. Bai Luo Yin shifted his gaze from Gu Hai's face that was within his reach. Gu Hai stroke Bai Luo Yin's cheek gently and spoke softly, "Don't be afraid! You have me!" Bai Luo Yin gripped Gu Hai's hand, "I'm okay, don't be like this, you don't have to take a risk for me."
What risk? I just want to take advantage from this opportunity, where else can I find good opportunity such like this? I can take full advantage of this, and I can even hide under a selfless pretense...... "It seems that sexual contact is also one way of Hepatitis B transmission." "You can't!" Bai Luo Yin pushed Gu Hai, "You absolutely can't! Don't be stupid!" 369
Are you Addicted? "I am very conscious on what I'm doing." Gu Hai pinned down both of Bai Luo Yin's hands, he pressed his whole body weight on top of him, there was only one sentence keeps replaying in his brain, " only if you dare...... only if you dare...... only if you dare...... ", he couldn't wait anymore, this is what he wants the most, all he had inside his brain was nothing but the fair and bright skin. He clearly remembered that Bai Luo Yin was wearing nothing underneath the robe, not even an underpants. A desire to join their body together and becoming one made Gu Hai's brain nearly explode. Bai Luo Yin's hand dug into Gu Hai's flesh, a sense of despair and yearning to escape was intertwining inside him, awoken all of his sensory nerves. Gu Hai moved slowly, Bai Luo Yin looked like he was waiting to be punished, he was terrified, he fell apart inside, yet he inevitably yearning for this moment to come faster. Perhaps, waiting is more torturing than receiving. The tip of Gu Hai's tongue touched Bai Louyin's earlobe. He provoked, teased and naughtily drew circles on it, before finally he used his lips to suck it softly, his tongue is pressing and ravaging it. Bai Luo Yin kicked firmly on Gu Hai's legs, he couldn't say anything else except "No", this is the first time for him to be played by a man in this way. Humiliation, torture and unwillingness...... all of these bad thoughts rushed to his mind. But he was unable to resist, Gu Hai's tongue was too hot, so much that he hated himself for being so weak like this. At this very moment, he shamelessly longed for this man's consolation. "Yinzi, I can't control myself anymore...." Gu Hai's hot breath can be felt on Bai Luo Yin's neck. Bai Luo Yin's voice slightly trembled, "Don't force me to do it." Gu Hai suddenly untied Bai Luo Yin's bath robe, he pressed his rough thumbs onto the two red beans under the gaze of Bai Luo Yin's furious eyes and without listening to Bai Luo Yin's protest, as he started to rub against himself between his legs. "Ah...." A broken moan escaped from the corner of Bai Luo Yin's mouth, his chest felt like it was being electrified by a pleasant sensation and blocked his throat. He felt humiliated, he thought this particular spot was a sensitive spot only for women so he didn't really care about them. So, when Gu Hai's hand touched and played with them, he had no resistance or whatsoever against this unfamiliar pleasure at all. ***

Chapter 91: Laughter Fills the Street. Hello everyone~ I might have to say this... Honestly, I always use the same word with what CJD used from the original novel, or at least I try to translate them as close as possible. You know how some words in Chinese are just hard to be translated to english (/-＼*) I know my translation is not perfect, and I have so many mistakes (',,•ω•,,｀) thank you for still staying with me and reading my work~ Warning: this chapter contains mature content, and may caused nosebleed (๑✪ω✪๑)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The robe was scattered on top of the bed, the blanket had been missing from their kicks, Gu Hai was like a lion ran out from the jungle, roaring and sprang towards its favourite prey. His member below was burning like a soldering iron, erecting slowly but vigorously. Gu Hai's hand slowly sliding down from Bai Luo Yin's abdomen. Bai Luo Yin gripped Gu Hai's hands, his voice was strict and firm, leaving no room for negotiation. "You can't!" He wont be able to tolerate himself if someone else were to touch that part, especially if that person is a man. If they stopped here, both of them still could hide themselves under the blanket and finishing it separately, and Bai Luo Yin would be able to tolerate it even though with much reluctance. But if he really allowed Gu Hai to help him release, Bai Luo Yin was unable to imagine it, he didn't dare to imagine it too. Gu Hai breathed heavily, "Why not? I want to touch you. I really want to do this with you." "Let's end it here." The blue veins can be seen on Bai Luo Yin's arm as he gripped onto Gu Hai. Gu Hai's naked body attached closely to Bai Luo Yin's, his burning cheek nestled closely onto Bai Luo Yin's, he embraced him tightly, let Bai Luo Yin to fully experience the enthusiasm and explosive force from his aroused member below. When he felt that Bai Luo Yin's resistance wasn't subsiding, Gu Hai softly bit Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, he bit them over and over again with his teeth, as if he was transmitting a certain feelings. "Gu Hai, I can't do this..." 371
Are you Addicted? "Stop talking." Gu Hai's breath synced with Bai Luo Yin's heartbeat. He started to kiss Bai Luo Yin on his forehead, and moved down to his eyelids, nose, chin, and neck...... When he felt that Bai Luo Yin's arm started to relax, Gu Hai's hand slide up Bai Luo Yin's leg. The hard contact shocked Gu Hai. Bai Luo Yin held his breath in a flash, that unfamiliar touch aroused the hairs all over his body, countless of his sensual nerves started to expand unrestrictedly. He turned his face and push Gu Hai's hand, but he lost more than half of its strength because of Gu Hai's kiss. Gu Hai's hand began to rub skillfully, while changing methods to please this baby, the pleasure that it brings related directly to its owner's attitude from now on. Few months ago, he was someone who wouldn't even glance at a handsome guy. Who would've thought that few months later, today, he's loving the feeling of a man's cock in his hand, and the sight of it went bigger excited him endlessly. It was as hot as a piece of soldering iron, the wrinkles on it were flattened from the rubbing. Bai Luo Yin's neck began to resist and his breath became more and more messy. Gu Hai was rubbing again for some time, Bai Luo Yin's body suddenly trembled and his broken breath sounded exceptionally lewd on the bed. Gu Hai bent his body down and pressed his bare chest against Bai Luo Yin's. That big thing on his lower body was rubbed together against Bai Luo Yin's, the friction between them ignited a raging flame. Gu Hai grabbed both of their cock together and the instant heat melted both of them. Gu Hai's heavy breath sounded like a muffled thunder exploding on Bai Luo Yin's ear. All of the worries and anxieties, at this moment disappeared completely. All that remained were only desire, lust, pleasure, addiction...... "Take your hands off." Bai Luo Yin squeezed these words between his clenched teeth.
I won't! Gu Hai straightened his neck. I've waited for so many days, I've fantasized about this so many times, just to see what kind of lewd expression you would make, but you just want to settle this by yourself stealthily under the blanket? Not only did Gu Hai refused to remove his hands, he even fastened his pace, and bent down to bite Bai Luo Yin's chest. Bai Luo Yin has been abstinent from lust for a while, how can he endure such pleasure like this, he clenched his teeth, unable to say anything. His hands pulled Gu Hai's hair, his body suddenly trembled. A milky substance suddenly spurted onto Gu Hai's hands. Gu Hai hasn't stopped his hand's movement yet, he continued to stimulate him at a 372
你丫上瘾了? high frequency, Bai Luo Yin moaned as he continued to shoot a few more loads until it became limp. When Gu Hai saw Bai Luo Yin's expression as he reached climax, it made him really excited, he quickly stroked himself few more times, and reached orgasm as he spurted while swearing. After he finished, Gu Hai smiled as he laid on the bed beside Bai Luo Yin. He looked at Bai Luo Yin's sweaty face, praising him: "Little Yin zi, you were so sexy just now, so charming, so lustful......" Bai Luo Yin punched Gu Hai's cheekbone, pushing him few inches back and made him almost fell to the floor. But Gu Hai still coming back and embraced Bai Luo Yin tightly, doesn't want to let him go. Bai Luo Yin's breath gradually softened, he found it unbearable to recall the 'past'. But Gu Hai keeps asking questions to him persistently from the side. "Yin zi, did you feel good just now?" "Yin zi, which part that I touched that pleased you the most?" "Yin zi, the sound that you made when you reached your climax was really pleasant to hear." Bai Luo Yin hated it most when someone still talk dirty after masturbating, Gu Hai was the only one who liked that kind of talks. He felt that forcing someone like Bai Luo Yin to share his thoughts about what they just did earlier is a wonderful and exciting thing. "Yin zi...." "If you're still talking about those things, do you believe that I'm going to throw you out from the windows?" Bai Luo Yin interrupted Gu Hai's words. Gu Hai raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "That's not what I'm going to say to you." "Then what do you want to say?" Gu Hai moved closer. Bai Luo Yin pushed Gu Hai with his arm, "Just say it from there." "There's no mood if I talk from here." Gu Hai pulled Bai Luo Yin into his arms and embraced him. His voice was gentle and sincere, "I can love you dearly."
373
Are you Addicted? Under the silent night, Bai Luo Yin's heart shivering slightly upon listening to those words beside his ear. "I can love you dearly, to make up for all the love you've lost in the past ten years." That night, because of those words, Bai Luo Yin slept really well. ...... The next morning, Bai Luo Yin just put down his schoolbag when the vice class leader walked over while scratching his head. "Bai Luo Yin, I have something I need to say, come out for a bit." Bai Luo Yin walked out from the class, with Gu Hai followed him from behind. When the vice class leader saw Gu Hai, his heart quivered, he used his eyes to hint on Bai Luo Yin, can you please ask him to go inside first? Otherwise I won't dare to say
these words I'm going to say! Bai Luo Yin didn't want to let Gu Hai hear about it too, especially after he saw the vice class leader's serious expression, his heart became more unsure. He didn't want to let Gu Hai see his expression when he's in a tight corner like this. "Go inside first." Gu Hai's face fell, "I want to stay here and listen to it."
I just want to hear, what rubbish words will this fool say again now. Bai Luo Yin sighed, "Is it okay if you just say it directly? I've prepared my mental already anyway." The vice class leader took a deep breath, then cheerfully said: "Actually, yesterday I didn't understand the situation completely. From five parts, only one of them showed positive result, it proved that you already had antibody inside your body. The students who has antibody from our class are only you, Mao Liang and Hao Juan, the rest of us still hasn't had antibody yet, so we still need to continue with the immunization." Bai Luo Yin, "......." Gu Hai opened his mouth to ask, "So you mean that those three results are the best?" "Yes, you can say that." The vice class leader stood on his tiptoe and patted Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, "You should thank me, I gave you such a pleasant surprise." Bai Luo Yin clenched his teeth, his eyes stared at the vice class leader's face fiercely. 374
你丫上瘾了? "I really have to thank you!" After he said that, he signaled Gu Hai with his eyes, and then went inside the class. Not even few seconds passed, a loud scream can be heard from the outside. With his small and fragile body, how can he withstand Gu Hai's strong fist. After Gu Hai got the signal he naturally landed a few punches on vice class leader until he finally leaned on the wall and collapsed, his hand is on his chest, giving a 'please spare me' expression. Gu Hai was furious, "Say, why didn't you tell him a little bit later?" "Eh?...." The vice class leader looked at Gu Hai in a confusion. Gu Hai shouted in his mind: you just ruined many chances for me to do good things!
Originally I planned to make use of this opportunity, I will comfort and reassure him for a few days, and then when the time comes he will fell completely into my embrace, and he will let me do whatever I want to him. But now you just messed everything up, my springtime is ruined! Although Gu Hai thought that, but upon seeing Bai Luo Yin's expression became much better, he felt really happy. After all, he hates to see his dear feeling troubled everyday. Such feelings can be developed slowly, if he can accept you when he is unhappy, then naturally soon he will be able to accept you when he is happy. "What I said was true, right?" GH pushed his bicycle and put on a cocky expression, "I told you since before that it's nothing, but you were still thinking about it for the entire night. Say, if you were a little bit happier yesterday, we could have a much better time when we were doing it, right?" Bai Luo Yin was still smiling cheerfully when he heard the first half of his words, but then his face suddenly turned grave after hearing the later half. "A past is a past, don't talk about it again, can you?" "You're going to forget all about it?" Gu Hai felt extremely angry, I've taken care of you so well yesterday and today you
acted as if nothing had happened. You straightened your back, straightened your chest up, and didn't look at me at all! Bai Luo Yin frowned his eyebrows and his tone was somewhat uncomfortable. "Who said that I'm going to forget it all? I am just bothered that you keep talking about this over and over again, is it something to be proud of?" "But I just said the truth!" Fooling around is one of Gu Hai's personality, "Yesterday, someone was feeling really aroused, leaving a few big scratch marks on my back, pulling my hairs, while shouting loudly.... Tsk tsk... Do you want me to imitate you?" 375
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin advanced with large strides, grabbed Gu Hai who wanted to flee, and gave him some violent kicks. Laughter filled the street. *****

Chapter 92: A Young Couple Buying Furniture. Hi guys~~ Seriously I need short chapter once in a while but I think I wont get it anymore XD And big thanks to saehan01 for helping me on some parts! (〃 >ω<〃)♡ thank you babe! Enjoy~
------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Self-study time, the entire class was in a mess. They were talking with each other, fooling around, some students were playing with ball at the back of the class. It was really lively and noisy, just like a food market. You Qi turned his body around and whispered to Bai Luo Yin, "Go home with me on Friday!" "Go home with you? To Tianjin?" You Qi nodded his head, "Yes, I always talk about you to my mother, she really wants to see you." Seeing You Qi's mother, Bai Luo Yin felt really uneasy about it, he felt that he isn't the type of person who would be liked by parents. All middle-aged people around 30-40 years old liked someone who's really optimistic and lively, cheerful, and capable to do anything. He's not really good at those aspects, usually when he went to his classmate's house, he would just sit there with a cold face. People who didn't know him would believe that he's in the middle of demanding a debt payment! "No need! One of these days if your mother is not around then I will go there for a couple of days." "Don't be like that!" A sense of urgency appeared on You Qi's handsome face, "It's because my mother wants to see you that's why I invited you." When Bai Luo Yin heard this one word "mother" he felt his head hurts. "My mother's cooked food tastes really good." When he heard this one word "food", he became somewhat interested. Gu Hai tapped on Bai Luo Yin's back. "What's wrong?" Bai Luo Yin turned his head around. Jealous Gu said, "Saturday let's go to the furniture store together!" 377
Are you Addicted? "Furniture store? For what?" Bai Luo Yin had a puzzled expression on his face. Gu Hai raised his eyebrow, "My new place still needs a lot of furniture, there are a lot of empty space, you've seen it before right?" "Then just go by yourself, why did you ask me to go with you?"
Aren't we going to live in that house together?... Gu Hai didn't dare to say those words, he was afraid that if he said that, Bai Luo Yin wouldn't want to go with him even more. "You have good eyes, I would be happy if you come with me." Gu Hai's overbearing gaze intimidated Bai Luo Yin's heart, his inner clamour and hint were totally clear, if you dare to go to his house, I will definitely give him a very hard
time! As a matter of fact, Bai Luo Yin was already thinking to reject You Qi, but through this way, You Qi would definitely feel upset. "Last week when I went home I told my mother already, and she prepared a lot of foods for you." Bai Luo Yin felt sorry towards You Qi, "Let's do this then, I'll buy a present for Aunt, please help me to give it to her and tell her if I have time on winter holiday, I definitely will go to your house." You Qi didn't say anything. After class, Yang Meng took out one pack of small raccoon instant noodles snack from his drawer, he chewed them pretty loudly. Suddenly he heard a loud shout that came from the back door, it scared him and made his hand trembled, his instant noodles dropped into broken bits. "Yang Meng, I called you, come out quick!" The whole class suddenly went into chaos. Every time You Qi came to find Yang Meng, a group of beautiful girls would come and interrogate him after that. Are you really
close with You Qi? What food does he usually likes to eat? When you were together with him, was he cold and cruel too?....... Yang Meng really wanted to shout, I'm not fucking close with him! This time You Qi wasn't like how he used to be, usually he would've stood at the doorway, waited for a certain girl telling Yang Meng to go out, and brought Yang Meng to him. After that he pulled Yang Meng to a corner and spoke with him. Rather, today he shouted at him full of anger, waited for him to come out quickly by himself, and scolded him agitatedly. 378
你丫上瘾了? "Why are you just staying inside the classroom all day? As an adult cant you go out for walk? Look at you, very shameful! You're even wearing your jacket and tie like this! Aren't you overeating? Look at your mouth, it's fucking stained with the instant noodles's dregs! Don't you know that instant noodles is deep fried food? Don't you know that deep fried food is not healthy? I'm telling you, I can see from your eyes that your heart is really dirty, you're narrow-minded, you're really good for nothing! Why are you looking at me? Can it purify you? You're just like a stinky clogs beside the trash can, you're just a big fool who's just being noisy for whole day! Don't think that I don't know you did those rotten things! My heart is as clear as a mirror! You're so shameless....." Yang Meng was dumbfounded, he was just sitting quietly inside the classroom, what did he do that provoked him? You Qi's face looked as if it was painted by a grey paint. Yang Meng swayed his hand in front of You Qi's face, "Hey brother, let me take you to the clinic and get some medicine for you, you can't keep dragging it on like this!" You Qi suddenly gripped Yang Meng's shoulder, then dragged him to a dark and quiet corridor at the experiments building, there were archives room around them, with photographs of the previous headmasters hung on the walls. Thick and heavy murderous atmosphere shrouded Yang Meng's surrounding. "What do you want..?" Yang Meng's voice quivered. You Qi grabbed Yang Meng's neck, spoke with a threatening tone, "Go to my house to eat on Saturday!" "You don't have any reason to refuse!" You Qi said in a stern voice, then he used his finger to poke at Yang Meng's forehead. Yang Meng stunned, just how bad this kid had suffered a rejection?! "Do you agree or not?" You Qi asked again. "So you dare to reject me?!" You Qi poked Yang Meng's forehead again. Yang Meng hasn't even speak one sentence for the whole time, yet You Qi had bombarded him with so many questions. Behind them was the picture of the first headmaster, a scholar from the final years of Qing dynasty, who fixed his gaze at two persons before his eyes. Did I established this school just in order to let both of you
come here and discuss these kind of things? You Qi vented all of the anger inside his heart, he constrained himself for more than two months already, until today he finally found a target to express all of his 379
Are you Addicted? disappointments. Weren't you always treating me coldly? You never spare me your
time, right? Fine, then I'll just come and harass your friend everyday, I'll always pick a quarrel with him everyday, until he couldn't stand it anymore, then he will find you, and I will take advantage of him to retaliate Gu Hai too! You Qi felt satisfied with his own stupid ideas. When Yang Meng saw that You Qi didn't speak, he couldn't help but to open his mouth and ask, "That.... Yin zi didn't come to school again?" "He came!" You Qi straightened his collar, his expression became normal again, "He's just sitting in the classroom." "Then why did you come and harass me?" "Harassing you?" You Qi walked out while speaking, "I think there's something wrong with your way of thinking." When they walked out from the experiments building, finally sunshine was upon them. "There's something wrong with your way of thinking?! If there's nothing wrong with your way of thinking, then why did you wear your long johns on the wrong side huh! And you still have the face to fucking mock me! What's wrong with the way I wear my jacket and tie? At least I don't have my tie pulled all the way to my back!!"
Eh... You Qi suddenly lowered his head. That was when he noticed the thread residue hanging loose on his chest. The atmosphere surrounding them became awkward for a few seconds, then he pretended to not care about it and said, "This is called character." Yang Meng mocked, "Look at you living like this, you won't even reach thirty years old." You Qi, "......" Yang Meng walked back to the class while cursing in his mind: Fuck, I let him scolded
me severely for no reason! ..... Weekend, at the furniture store. Gu Hai stood in front of a sofa, he placed his hand on his chin while looking at it carefully, then he asked Bai Luo Yin: "What do you think about this one?" Bai Luo Yin thought for a while, "This one is not bad, but I think it's a little bit too big." "Is it? I think it's just the right size."
380
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin sat on the sofa to try it for a while, "You see, even after I sat here it still has so much space left, you can even make this as a bed. Although your living room is big enough, but the interior style inside is quite reserved, if you put such a big sofa like this it would make the living room seems bold and carefree." "If you have a sofa this big, you can even roll on top of it as much as you want!" Bai Luo Yin's face darkened, "Isn't people buying sofa to sit on it? If you just want to roll, then why don't you just buy a huge bed?" Gu Hai ignored the stare from the salesgirl, he smiled at Bai Luo Yin dubiously. "Bed has bed taste, sofa has its own taste." Bai Luo Yin went silent for a while, he pretended not to hear about it and then walked away. "I think you should buy more beds." Bai Luo Yin suggested. Gu Hai seemed confused, "Why should I get more beds?" "You have a lot of friends. When they're gathering at your house some day, you would be able to let them stay overnight!" Gu Hai replied nonchalantly, "I never let anyone stay overnight at my place, especially guys." Bai Luo Yin slanted his gaze towards Gu Hai. Gu Hai immediately realised his mistake, "You are an exception, you are my wife...." "What did you say?" Bai Luo Yin flared up right away, he almost did a domestic violence session inside the store, "Gu Hai, the greatest flaw that your mother did is when she gave you that mouth!" Gu Hai found out that Bai Luo Yin's ear turned red. Gu Hai felt really pleased inside, even though Bai Luo Yin scolded him, he felt happy. He thought, isn't it bound to happen sooner or later? My wife, what are you shy about?! "What do you think about this desk?" Gu Hai asked Bai Luo Yin again. Bai Luo Yin shook his head, "I dont like it. It's too fancy, how about that one over there?" "It's too dull." Gu Hai frowned his eyebrows. "Then just buy this one." Bai Luo Yin said, "It's your home anyway, just buy what you like most."
381
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai thought: That won't do. I'm decorating this house just to attract you to come
there, every furniture, every decoration, all of them should be according to your liking, if you dont like them, why would I buy it? "I want to buy that desk over there." "Okay." ***

Chapter 93: A Warm Scene Under the Rain. Hello everyone~ I was sick so I'm a bit late updating this :( Once again I have to thank saehan01 for helping me with the history stuffs (〃 >ω<〃)♡ Also thank you Sienna for the proofread~ I feel that this chapter is sooo sweet, who wouldn't want to have a boyfriend like Gu Hai?! I need Gu Hai to spoil me too ♡.♡
------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the evening, after school, rain was suddenly pouring down. Although it wasn't a heavy rain, but during this season the raindrops felt really cold. Bai Luo Yin walked out from the bicycle shed and told Gu Hai, "Use this bicycle to go back to your place." Gu Hai didn't say anything, he simply took Bai Luo Yin's schoolbag from his back, and then placed it upon his own back, his intention was very obvious. When they went out from the school gate, Gu Hai wiped the raindrops on his face, and spoke to Bai Luo Yin, "Take me home." It's a very rare sight, this is the first time for Gu Hai to request such a thing. Previously, no matter how sunny or how windy the weather was, he would always take Bai Luo Yin home without second thoughts, so as not to make Bai Luo Yin feel tired. It made Bai Luo Yin very content, this is the first time his younger brother showed his weakness, so Bai Luo Yin also adopted an older brother attitude. Along the way, the light wind tangled up with the raindrops hit them, causing the cold to seep into their bodies. Gu Hai took off his jacket and wrapped it around Bai Luo Yin tightly. Only then, Bai Luo Yin finally realized why Gu Hai had asked him to take him home. "You don't need to cover me, I'm not cold, wear it for yourself," Bai Luo Yin's entire face was dripping wet. Gu Hai didn't listen to him, he took the schoolbag from his back and placed it over Bai Luo Yin's head. Then, little by little, Gu Hai wiped the raindrops on Bai Luo Yin's face with his warm hand, this soft, gentle and pampering action warmed both of their hearts. Bai Luo Yin's 383
Are you Addicted? cheeks gradually warmed up. Gu Hai's big hands rubbed it over and over again. This is Bai Luo Yin's first time that he didn't prevent Gu Hai from making such an intimate action in public. Both of them remained silent; nevertheless, their hearts connected with each other. The wind was blowing from behind, wetting Gu Hai's thin T-shirt. Gu Hai quietly recalled, during this season, if it's windy when they go to school, they will definitely travel against the wind, and when they go home, they wil travel in the same direction as the wind. Gu Hai was showering inside the newly built bathroom, all of his clothes beside him were completely drenched. Bai Luo Yin walked out of his bedroom after searching for thick outer clothes, then he knocked on the bathroom door. "Come in." Gu Hai said from inside. After Bai Luo Yin went inside and didn't see Gu Hai, he immediately hung the clothes on the hook at the side, speaking lightly: "It's really cold outside, after you've finished your shower, wear more clothes." Gu Hai felt warmth inside his heart, it quickly morphing into a puddle of water, flowing down the drainpipes. "Help me to see what's wrong with this switch, the cold water isn't coming out." Bai Luo Yin's back faced Gu Hai, "Cut it out!" Then, he pushed the door and walked out. The comfortable stream of warm water fell onto Gu Hai's broad back. Gu Hai couldn't help but to sigh heavily, it's really hard to deal with a clever wife, I can't even trick him! After Gu Hai finished showering, it was Bai Luo Yin's turn to shower. The warm bathroom was filled with seething steam. A month ago, he couldn't even imagine to take a shower in his house at this season. Back then, when the weather got warmer, he used a basin of hot water to rub himself inside his room. Most of the time, he had to go to the public bath near his home. Inside, there were all different kinds of people. Since it's cheap, there were many people, so many that even the shower needed to be timed. It can be said that since Gu Hai became his friend, Bai Luo Yin and his family's quality of life had improved greatly.
"I will crush you with a huge amount of love. I don't believe that it won't move you!" "I will love you dearly, I will make up all the love that you've lost for the past ten years." 384
你丫上瘾了? When Bai Luo Yin picked up Gu Hai's drenched clothes, these two sentences suddenly popped up in his brain. When he listened to them, he only replied with a nonchalant expression. But actually, he was deeply moved inside. He knew that Gu Hai had never gave him empty words, and it's exactly because of this reason, that made him hard to reject it. He couldn't bear to reject it. Who will mind having one more person in this world who love himself? Bai Luo Yin was only worried, that he would depend on Gu Hai even more. The rain outside had stopped, Gu Hai was strolling in every room, until he saw Grandma Bai cracking walnuts inside her room. She used a small hammer clumsily, but she couldn't really crack them well. Every time she tried to crack it, the walnut would jump away, and she had to go and get the walnuts back. "Grandma, let me help you." Gu Hai spoke while picking up two walnuts with his hand. He used his strength to confront the tough walnut with toughness, and the walnut immediately broke open. When Grandma Bai saw it, her eyes widened, this boy really has a lot of strength, his hand works even better than the small hammer. Gu Hai used his bare hands to crack more than ten walnuts. Grandma Bai was sitting beside him, carefully removing the shells and placing them onto a tray. Bai Luo Yin had just finished his shower and he walked inside Grandma Bai's room, just in time to see Gu Hai cracking walnuts there. "There's a small hammer, right? Why are you showing off your strength?" Bai Luo Yin frowned his eyebrows, "What if your hands get hurt?" Gu Hai smirked, and asked Bai Luo Yin furtively, "If my hands got hurt, will you feel hurt too?" Bai Luo Yin gave Gu Hai a sideway glance, "Just keep using your hands then!" "You're really cruel to me," Gu Hai wore a look akin to a resentful husband. Bai Luo Yin ignored him, he walked back to his bedroom, took a book and gave it to Gu Hai. "Hurry up and review your history subject, it's been 3 months since you last touched arts subject, an exam is coming up in the next few days, don't disgrace me if you can't pass!" Gu Hai blissfully moved closer to Bai Luo Yin's side, and asked him shamelessly, "If I can't pass the exam, how will that disgrace you?" "Go study!" Bai Luo Yin angrily rebuked him. 385
Are you Addicted? "The Great Cultural Revolution that occurred in China from May 1966 to October 1976 was launched and led by Mao Ze Dong, aided by two revolutionaries leader, Lin Biao and Jiang Qing, who in turn, countered Mao in order to try and take control of the country. It is a political movement that brought huge calamity to Chinese Nation...." Grandma Bai was eating the walnuts, but she suddenly stopped when she heard this sentence. "It's impossible!" "Hm?" Gu Hai looked at Grandma Bai in confusion. Grandma Bai stared at Gu Hai, spinning her eyes around and around, with a serious face, "Mao Du Du [1] can't be wrong!" "Why can't he?" Gu Hai teased her deliberately. Grandma Bai answered him seriously, "Mao Du Du is the red, the reddest sun." [2] Gu Hai burst into loud laughter after teasing Grandma Bai, Bai Luo Yin also laughed beside him. It's past ten o'clock at night, Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin sat on the bed, with a computer desk between them. Gu Hai placed his elbow on top of the desk, lights gathered inside his pupils, he fixed his gaze on Bai Luo Yin who was sitting in front of him. "What are the consequences of Opium War?" Gu Hai thought about it, "Consequences? I think there are four consequences..... No, three consequences." Bai Luo Yin's expression suddenly became fierce. "Three consequences, it really is three, first is the changes upon the nature of society, second is the changes upon the society's conflicts, the third consequence.... the third consequence.... what is it again?" BAM! Bai Luo Yin hit Gu Hai's hand with a steel ruler. Gu Hai suddenly withdrew his hand, exaggeratingly grimacing in pain, "You're really hitting me?" Bai Luo Yin replied coldly, "I've asked you this question many times already, how come you still can't answer it?"
You've just finished your shower, sitting right in front of me with clear and bright skin, handsome face, how can you expect me to study properly? 386
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin became anxious, this guy has a rough skin and thick muscles, even if I hit
him for half a day, it would be useless! Exam is coming soon, with Gu Hai's current level, supposed if he were to pass the exam, that means all of those old men who collected garbage outside would be able to enter Qing Hua university! Then, he thought about it. "Let's do this, memorize all of this for one hour." "Memorize this for one hour?...." Gu Hai became worried, he dropped his head on the pillow, "You see what time is it now? Usually I've wrapped myself inside my blanket already at this time. Today, I was drenched in rain, my head also hurts a bit...." "But you can't remember! Now I will give you some questions. If you can't answer one question, when we sleep, you have to move one centimeter away from me. If you can't answer two questions, that means you have to move two centimeters away from me. If you get it all wrong, then just go to sleep at my father's room."
This idea, I approve! Gu Hai stood up, his eyes showed excitement, "If I can answer them all, can you let me sleep on top of you?" Bai Luo Yin hit Gu Hai's face with the book on his hand. After half an hour, Gu Hai gave the book back to Bai Luo Yin. "Test me!" Bai Luo Yin then asked the questions one by one, he especially chose the hard ones on purpose, but Gu Hai answered them all without hesitation. The more Bai Luo Yin asked, the angrier he got. This kid was really pretending not to know anything! He obviously
understood everything, but he must be forced first before he's willing to do it. When their study had completely finished, Gu Hai eventually realized that it was already pitch dark outside. Both of them curled up inside the blanket, the weather was getting colder, and the blanket was not warm enough for them. Their family could turn on the heater or light the stove, but in order to save the coal, if they aren't freezing they won't use it. Gu Hai bended his body and placed his cheek on Bai Luo Yin's back, his fingers were crawling on the bed sheet. "Yin Zi, I've memorized everything today, shouldn't you give me some reward?" "How old are you?" Bai Luo Yin replied coldly, "I also memorized everything, who would give me a reward? This is what you're supposed to do in the first place, and you're still thinking that you're incredible?" 387
Are you Addicted? "Then, I'll give you a reward!" Gu Hai said as he stretched his hand to stroke Bai Luo Yin's chest, "Do you want it?" Bai Luo Yin suddenly pinched Gu Hai's arms, "I don't want it, take it away!" Gu Hai looked at Bai Luo Yin in anger, but it wasn't really anger. Love and regret, both feelings were intertwining inside his eyes. Bai Luo Yin meticulously avoided Gu Hai's stare, then he asked, "Honestly, what do you want to do in the future?" "I want to do business." Bai Luo Yin thought that it was unexpected, "Business? Will your father approve? I think that your father would like you to walk the same path as him, no?" "He can think whatever he likes, I won't follow what he wants anyway." "The arm is no match for the thigh." [3] Bai Luo Yin let out a deep sigh. When Gu Hai thought about it, he felt annoyed, so he simply didn't want to think about it anymore. Then, he asked Bai Luo Yin, "How about you? What do you want to do?" "Actually, I want to do business too." "Don't!" Gu Hai grabbed Bai Luo Yin's hand firmly, "You're so smart, if I were to become your competitor, I'll definitely suffer losses!" Bai Luo Yin merely laughed, and didn't say anything else. ***** T/N: [1] 'Mao Du Du': Mao Ze Dong. [2] "Mao Du Du is the red, the reddest sun.": This refers to "The East is red and the sun rises; in China there emerges Mao Tse-tung". When the sun rises in the Eastern sky, because it is magnificent and powerful, just as how people saw Mao Ze Dong as, they used this to symbolize the power that he exude. The image of the red sun demonstrate how the propaganda of from the Cultural Revolution projected Maoxism across the border and promoted the idea that Mao was the global leader of the revolution. [3] "The arm is no match for the thigh.": This is an idiom that means the weak cannot win against the strong.

Chapter 94: Two Evil Boys Make Money. Hello! Thank you for all the kind words, I'm all better now ♡ Regarding this chapter, so many mahjong terms that I dont really understand here... I hope I explained them correctly ( '艸｀) Feel free to correct me anyway~
------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I've spent all of my money." Upon hearing Gu Hai said that, Bai Luo Yin didn't think that it was unexpected at all. "Look at how you spent your money. No matter how much money you have, it will never enough." "Did I waste my money?" Gu Hai complained, "I've furnished my house, right? Furnishing house needs money. And doesn't my daily life needs money too? Right now I don't have any income, I just have expenses. I've spent all of my savings too." Bai Luo Yin looked at Gu Hai. "Doesn't your father give you money?" "He does, but I don't want it." "Why not?" Bai Luo Yin was bewildered. "He's your father. Aren't you supposed to use his money?" "It's my fault. When I left his house, I said to him that I don't want his money, not even one cent. Although our relationship is better now, but I said it already. I haven't received any money from him for the past two months, I'm used to this kind of life already, I'll feel embarrassed if I ask him for money now." "You're still being polite with your father?" Gu Hai didn't say anything. Bai Luo Yin gave a sideway glance at Gu Hai, "Are you still holding grudges on him?" "I will bear grudges on him for my whole life." "Have you ever think that it was all just a misunderstanding, perhaps she passed away because of an accident? I'm not siding with anyone, I just want you to investigate this
389
Are you Addicted? matter clearly. Such a dubious hatred like this, it would only make you suffer more. Your mother is gone, you just have one family member left now." Gu Hai went silent for a while, then he pulled Bai Luo Yin's hand, lightly said, "Let's not talk about this anymore, let's talk about how to solve my financial problem." "You.... How much do you have now?" Bai Luo Yin asked. "Most likely I won't even be able to buy tomorrow's breakfast." Bai Luo Yin snorted. "Why did you spent all of your money?" Gu Hai's hand fiddled with Bai Luo Yin's hair, leisurely said, "I used to spend my money freely. Have you ever heard about this sentence? It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it's difficult to go from extravagance to frugality." "Let's do this then, just stay at my home for now, if someday you have the face to go and ask your dad for money, then you can go back." "Then I won't ask any money from him." Gu Hai let out an evil smile while moving closer to Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin used his hand to hit Gu Hai's head a couple times, helplessly looked at Gu Hai who secretly felt pleased under his blanket. "Okay, let's do that." Bai Luo Yin then prepared to sleep. Gu Hai then lifted his head out from the blanket, he placed his hand on Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, and pressed his upper body closer to Bai Luo Yin. "No! I can't be a freeloader at your house. Beside, it's really inconvenient if I don't have any money. Help me to think a way, how can I get money?" Bai Luo Yin turned his body around to face Gu Hai. Upon looking at Bai Luo Yin's handsome face, Gu Hai felt a whirlwind stirring up inside his brain. "Why are you being so polite? You've been a freeloader at my house for almost two months, right? So what if you do it for few more months? Besides, my father's job with high salary now, its all because of you, he's really anxious on how to repay you. If he knew about this, don't even talk about a few months, even if it's few more years, he would be really happy to help you!" "Just help me to think something." Gu Hai gave a bitter expression, he pressed his head closer to Bai Luo Yin's chest, "It's okay to freeload at your house, but I can't ask for money from Uncle. What if one day I need something, and I dont have any money?" "Its okay to ask him for money!" 390
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai's head rested on Bai Luo Yin's chest for a while. Actually, implored him was just his second intention, his real intention was to stroke Bai Luo Yin's chest. Bai Luo Yin felt numb because of Gu Hai's rough skin on his scalp, he hastily stopped Gu Hai's movement. "Okay, I will think about it. You just need to get money, right?" Gu Hai lifted his head up, looked at Bai Luo Yin with his charming eyes, a hint of shamelessness seeped through from inside. "You helped Aunt Zou and my father so easily, but why can't you help yourself? Normally speaking, compared to other people, it's much easier for you to get money, right?" "It's not like that." Gu Hai fiddled with Bai Luo Yin's finger, "If it's about money, I want to rely on my own ability to get it." Bai Luo Yin said honestly, "If you want to depend on your own ability, you won't be able to get any money." These words hurt our Gu Hai's self esteem, after he heard that he immediately flung Bai Luo Yin's hand, and made it as a pillow for his head. I can't make any money? If I, Gu Hai, were to do it for real, I can quit school right now and start from scratch. I guarantee you, within five years I will absolutely succeed! "You really want to make money right?" Bai Luo Yin kicked Gu Hai lightly. Gu Hai stayed still, not saying anything. "Actually I have an idea, you will get money quickly." Gu Hai was still silent as before. "If you dont want to hear it then forget it." When he saw that Bai Luo Yin turned his body around, he immediately pulled Bai Luo Yin into his embrace, the tip of his tongue pressed near Bai Luo Yin's earlobe, "Say it quickly, if you're not saying it then I will grab your little Yin zi." Weekend, at Gu Hai's new place. "Yao Ji! (Little Chicken)" Li Shuo put out a money. "Peng!" [1] Bai Luo Yin took all of the money and placed them on his side. Zhou Si Hu was surprised, "Peng again?" Bai Luo Yin just laughed, he didn't say anything.
391
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai looked at his own tile, his finger moved back and forth on top of his mahjong tiles, finally he discarded one tile. "San Tong (Three Bamboos)." "Gang!" [2] Bai Luo Yin immediately took out the tile before his eyes. Li Shuo angrily scratched his head, secretly cursed, "How can you keep doing peng, chi [3], gang, endlessly? Damn it, I'll discard one more tile, let's see if you can still do chi or not...." "Qi Tiao (Seven Bamboos)." Bai Luo Yin immediately turned all of his tiles over, "Hu le!" [4] Li Shuo and Zhou Si Hu were astonished, hu again? Since we started playing until now, Bai Luo Yin has been winning for seven consecutive times, he won every game, undefeated. "I can't believe this evil." With a cigarette in his mouth, Li Shuo furrowed his eyebrows while shuffling the tiles. This time, Zhou Si Hu's tile were obviously good, when he was just started to arrange his tiles, his expression was overflowing with joy. He glanced at Li Shuo, brother is going to win this time, you'd better cooperate with me for a bit. Gu Hai was really quiet, it's not that he's not skilled, it's not that his tiles are bad, it's just that he's most willing to be Bai Luo Yin's benefactor. What Bai Luo Yin needs over there, he will offer it from here. "Wu Tiao (Five Bamboos)." Bai Luo Yin discarded a tile. "Chi!" "Peng!" Zhou Si Hu smiled towards Li Shuo while swaying his mahjong tile, "Forget it, brother got it first, I'm sorry." Li Shuo's face darkened. After few turns in this round, no one uttered a word, Zhou Si Hu saw that his tiles is just one step away from winning, he only needs Liu Wan or Jiu Wan to win. Zhou Si Hu gave a gesture to Li Shuo under the table. Li Shuo looked at his own tiles, he didn't say anything, he really has one Qiu Wan. Then just wait, wait until it's my turn, I will let you win once. 392
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin guessed that his tile is going to come soon, he picked one tile, pressed it in his hand, then he raised the corner of his mouth and giving a cold smile, confusing the person beside him. "Hu le." Bai Luo Yin turned over his tiles, "Zi mo. Yi Tiao Long." [5] Li Shuo and Zhou Shi Hu simultaneously laid their head on the table, their face were full of distress, I can't play anymore. He came here to play mahjong, or to rob me? Why is he so good at this? Those four people were playing from afternoon until evening, Bai Luo Yin placed more and more moneys into his own bag. Dinner time, Li Shuo can't help but to ask Bai Luo Yin, "Why are you so good at playing mahjong?" Zhou Si Hu also asked, "Are you sure you're not cheating?" "Actually he doesn't need to cheat." Gu Hai laughed, "I guess he definitely can remember the tiles." Li Shuo was surprised, "Remember the tiles? How can you remember the tiles? Can you memorize so many tiles in front of you? Beside, those tiles weren't grabbed by you alone, four people took them in turn, can you know what tile you will get?" Gu Hai bragged about his wife proudly, "I'm telling you this, he's not only remembering those tiles in front of him, even when you're drawing your tiles, he can remember it all. So when we're drawing a tile, it depends on luck. But when he's drawing a tile, he knew it already in his mind. If I say that he has a photographic memory, do you believe me?" Both Li Shuo and Zhou Shi Hu has an admiring gaze on Bai Luo Yin, is he a guru from some kind of legend? Bai Luo Yin laughed, "Don't listen to his nonsense. This kind of thing still has to depend on luck, today is my lucky day." "Aren't you too lucky?" Li Shuo drank a mouthful of beer, "Later I dont want to play mahjong with you anymore." Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin looked at each other. Fraudulence and evilness were all inside their eyes. After Li Shuo and Zhou Shi Hu went back, those two bad boys hid themselves in the bedroom while counting their money. Everything was from Bai Luo Yin's winning against Zhou Shi Hu and Li Shuo.
393
Are you Addicted? "12 thousands yuan in total." Gu Hai raised his lips, "As expected, you're really my good wife." Bai Luo Yin who was smiling at first suddenly got angry when he heard this, "If you say that one more time, do you believe that I will castrate you?" "Castrate me?" Gu Hai let out an evil smile, "Then you have to find a big basin, otherwise it won't fit." Bai Luo Yin's ashamed and irritated face left Gu Hai's gaze. **** T/N: [1] Peng: completed a set; 3 tiles with same image, for example: 3 tiles of 8 bamboos. [2] Gang: same with Peng, but this is 4 tiles with same image. [3] Chi: you have three tiles with sequential numbers and same image, for example: 7 bamboos, 8 bamboos, 9 bamboos. [4] Hu le: complete a winning hand. [5] Zi Mo: winning by his own draw without using other player's discarded tiles. Yi Tiao Long: three consecutive sequences of one suit, for example: one until nine bamboos.

Chapter 95: The Jealous One is Upset Again. Hello everyone! Work is hectic as always, I feel like I need to go on a vacation someday T^T I said that I want a boyfriend like Gu Hai but now I dont know anymore, Gu Hai is just too possessive! I pity our Yin Zi... XD Honestly I noticed that the longer the chapter is, the more I dont care about the grammar, I'm really sorry (/-＼*) Pls stay with me (/-＼*)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"All the high school students all over the country let's exercise to radio music 《Youthful Vigour》..... Get ready! One two three four, five six seven eight, two two three four, five six warming up, one two three four, five six seven eight, two two three four, five six seven eight..." A crowd of high school students was jumping around on the sports ground, as far as eyes can see, only black hairs and blue uniforms can be spotted, with movements that showed no differences. If there's a movement that requires them to turn their bodies around, two people would turn their bodies to opposite sides, causing them to look at each other's blushing face, and one of them would secretly changed his direction. "All classes dismissed!" Bai Luo Yin stood still at his spot, he smiled at Gu Hai who was standing not far from him, and both of them walked towards the classroom at the same time. "Suddenly I want to eat ice cream." Bai Luo Yin started to talk. Gu Hai shrinked, "What season is this? It's almost snowing, and you still want to eat ice cream....." "I dont know why, but I really want to eat something cold." "You can't eat it." Gu Hai replied firmly. Bai Luo Yin thought to himself, why the hell are you controlling me? Did I ask you for a permission? I was just mumbling to you. Seeing you like this, I'll jut eat it. After that Bai Luo Yin turned around and walked towards the school supermarket. Gu Hai chased him, "Actually what do you want?" "I want to buy ice cream!" Bai Luo Yin acted wilfully.
395
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai looked displeased, he glared angrily at Bai Luo Yin for a while, then he spoke in a deep voice: "Wait here!" After that, he forced his way into the supermarket along with a crowd of people. The supermarket was filled with students. Supposed if you're buying an instant noodle snacks, by the time you arrived at the cashier, the noodle definitely became crumbs already. Gu Hai swiftly moved in the middle of crowds until he finally arrived in front of the freezer. In the past, don't even say coming here to squeeze himself between a lot of people, for him, buying something for other people means lowering his status. Bai Luo Yin was standing still when suddenly someone bumped into him energetically and made him almost fell down. He turned his head to see, Yang Meng suddenly hung on to himself, seized with panic. "Yin Zi, help me!" Yang Meng cried. Bai Luo Yin patted Yang Meng's back, "Come down first." "I won't. If you don't save me I won't come down." Bai Luo Yin saw that Gu Hai is paying already from the silhouette. "If you have something to say then come down first, okay?" Yang Meng lowered his head and placed it on top Bai Luo Yin's back, "I'm afraid that once I come down you'll just run away." "Where would I run to?" Yang Meng calmed down, then he jumped down from Bai Luo Yin's back. "Say it." Bai Luo Yin straightened his uniform. Yang Meng looked around him, then said: "It's about You Qi from your class, is he crazy? Recently, he always pester me at every opportunity, when he's pestering me, he's also saying rude things to me, every time he would always find faults to pick on me. If I were to talk back, I couldn't say anything to him, after all your relationship with him is really good! But if I don't talk back, he would take advantages of me! Once the school bell rang, he definitely will show up at my class door and blocked me!" "You Qi is pestering you?" Bai Luo Yin was puzzled. Yang Meng hugged one of Bai Luo Yin's arm, his face was full of fear, "I'm telling you, even during breaks he doesn't let me off, once he caught me, he will never let me go. Did you see that? Did you see that? He's right there staring at me, acting sneaky with me, that guy....." 396
你丫上瘾了? Suddenly, Yang Meng's shoulder was hit by a huge hand, Yang Meng's leg crooked in a flash, half of his shoulder collapsed. Defending himself from You Qi too much, made him forget that there is one more man behind him who can't be trifled with. Yang Meng grabbed Bai Luo Yin's arm while in pain. Gu Hai pulled Bai Luo Yin's hand that Yang Meng grabbed to separate them, it made Yang Meng almost fall down. Then he passed the ice cream to Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin wanted to used that hand to take the ice cream, but Gu Hai persistently want to give it to the other hand, the meaning was clear, use this hand to take it, how can you let him hug your other hand even when I see it?! Then, Yang Meng saw Bai Luo Yin tore open the wrapping paper, strong milky smell mixed with chocolate crispy skin, he can't help but to rub his hands, "It's been a long time since the last time I ate ice cream, now I really want to eat it." Bai Luo Yin smiled then took a bite on his ice cream, the cold made his gum hurt. Yang Meng was like a small greedy kitten, he fixed his gaze at the cream on Bai Luo Yin's hand, asked impatiently,"How is the flavour?" Gu Hai pushed Yang Meng away and snatched the ice cream from Bai Luo Yin's hand. He looked at Yang Meng while putting on a fake smile, "I'll help you to taste it." Finished speaking, Gu Hai ate two mouthful of ice cream. After Gu Hai ate them, half of the ice cream is gone. "It's not bad, it's really good." Now half ice cream is gone already, I want to see if you still have the face to ask for it again. Who would've thought, this time someone caught up with Gu Hai's shamelessness. Yang Meng waited until Bai Luo Yin ate one more time, then he stretched out his small and delicate hand, spoke while grinning broadly: "Then, just give me a mouthful is enough." Gu Hai, "......" Bai Luo Yin took one more bite, and then gave it to Yang Meng, "Okay, you can have it all." Yang Meng happily ate the remaining ice cream, he also deliberately ate the ice cream slowly. One time he ate, one time he glanced at Gu Hai. 397
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai was upset! It was very difficult for me to squeeze myself and queue betwen the crowds just to get the ice cream for you. But it was nothing, the main problem is that there's Bai Luo Yin's saliva on top of the ice cream, you should've given it to me!! You should've given it to me!!! After Yang Meng finished the ice cream, he jogged lightly towards the trash can, and then he threw the wrapping paper away. Gu Hai looked at Bai Luo Yin calmly, "Who told you to let him eat?" "What's wrong with him eating it? Didn't you eat it too?" "Can we be the same?" Gu Hai's face darkened. Bai Luo Yin furrowed his eyebrows, "Gu Hai, dont be like this!" I always welcome those friends of yours with smiling face, but why is it when it comes to mine, you're so harsh? Bai Luo Yin didn't say these words out loud, because after Yang Meng threw the trash away, he immediately ran back to return. Three people walked together to the stairs, Yang Meng's class is on second floor, while Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai's class is on third floor. But, when they arrived on second floor Yang Meng didn't stop, he continued to walk towards third floor. Gu Hai reminded him coldly, "Brother, you passed your floor." "No, I know that this is the third floor, I just want to speak with Yin zi for a while." Gu Hai frowned his eyebrows, then walked inside the classroom. Bai Luo Yin and Yang Meng stood near the classroom door opposite the window, they continued to talk. "You Qi is always harrassing you? Why would he? Are you having dispute with him?" "What dispute?!" Yang Meng's gentle voice suddenly became full of resentment once he's talking about You Qi, "I've never talking with him, he just called me two times, who would've thought that he went insane like this? Every time school is over I would run away quickly, otherwise he would stop me at the school entrance, and he wont let me go. Say, supposed if he just beats me up a couple of times, I can let it go, but he didn't, he bombarded me with curses, how he cursed me... ah.. I can't descibe them...." Right when he was speaking, You Qi came. Yang Meng immediately gripped Bai Luo Yin's arm, his expression was like a kitten saw a tiger. He lowered his voice, speaking nonstop, "You see, you see. He's coming again, he will curse at me again..." 398
你丫上瘾了? But, You Qi only smiled at Bai Luo Yin, he didn't pay attention to Yang Meng at all. Bai Luo Yin glanced at Yang Meng, "Cursing you? Why didn't I hear it?" Yang Meng's shoulder collapsed, he didn't understand, "Why isn't he cursing at me today?" Bai Luo Yin patted Yang Meng's head, just like coaxing a little boy, "Okay okay, go back to your class. You have to attend your class now." "I can't. I have to hear the bell first then I will go back. I'm afraid he would rush out and barking at me." Bai Luo Yin, "......" Finally when he heard the bell sound, Yang Meng ran quickly, Bai Luo Yin went inside his class. "We're having a test now, take out your test paper, I'll give you some questions, hand it back to me before the class ends." Bai Luo Yin saw that everyone beside him has their own test paper, and his own desk was empty. Bai Luo Yin tapped You Qi's shoulder, "Where's my paper?" "Eh?" You Qi was puzzled, "Just now I clearly passed them to the back." Bai Luo Yin turned his body around and looked at the person behind him, sure enough he had two papers. "Give it to me." Bai Luo Yin stretched his hand out. Not only he refused to give the paper back, Gu Hai even replied with no shame, "I don't have it." "You obviously have two papers." Bai Luo Yin glared at Gu Hai. Gu Hai replied with sarcasm, "Who told you to be absent when they distributed the papers? Do you still need it? Just go chat! Just chat as much as you want to, just chat for a whole lesson, no need to do the test." Bai Luo Yin suddenly took one of the paper from Gu Hai's desk, then placed on his own desk. For the whole lesson, Gu Hai barely suppressed his feelings. When the bell rang, the back door opened, and one beautiful and small face appeared behind it. This guy didn't realize that he provoked someone, he still moved his hand to call Bai Luo Yin, "Yin zi, come out, come out." 399
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin stood up, then suddenly someone from behind kicked his chair. The chair leg knocked against Bai Luo Yin's leg fiercely. Bai Luo Yin took a deep breath, suppressed his anger. He kicked his chair, and walked out of the classroom without looking at Gu Hai at all. "Why did you come again?" Yang Meng pouted his lips, "I'm afraid that he will come and block me, so I ran out here even before the class ends." "So if you're looking for me, he wouldn't scold you?" Bai Luo Yin asked. Yang Meng nodded his head firmly, "He's scared of you, if we're together, he's so well behaved. You see, when I came here for you, he didn't even come out from the classroom." Bai Luo Yin felt helpless, "So you're going to keep coming to me for help?" Yang Meng understood You Qi's mind completely, "Yes, as long as he keeps pestering me, then I will always pestering you." Bai Luo Yin scratched his forehead anxiously, "Can you find somewhere else to hide yourself?" "I can't!" Yang Meng shook his head, "No matter where I hide it wouldn't be as good as hiding with you. He would always find me in this school. Besides, if I have classes, can I hide? I can only go to class, and then after the class ends, he definitely had waited at the classroom door already, I cant go out even if I want to!" This problem is really complicated, Bai Luo Yin grinded his teeth, the problem is definitely on You Qi! ..... Self study time, Bai Luo Yin tapped You Qi's back, asked him in a low voice, "What's going on between you and Yang Meng?" "Yang Meng?" You Qi pretended not to know anything, "Who's Yang Meng?" "My childhood friend. Didn't you go to my place together with him last time?" "Oohhh...." You Qi looked like he just realized it, "What happened to him?" "He told me that you're always pestering him." "I'm pestering him? You Qi shrugged his shoulder, he couldn't help but to laugh, "I'm not close with him, why would I pester him?" After he finished talking, he took out two pieces of tissue, then he blew his nose. 400
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin continued, "He said that every time the class ends you'd always go to his class and block him so he couldn't go out." You Qi became even more surprised, "I went to his class to block him? Isn't it him who came to our class all the time? You saw it right, these past two classes, did I ever go out? Wasn't he the one who always running to our class?!" Bai Luo Yin, "....." 'Two students in front of me, can you be quiet?" A simple yet strong warning came from behind, his voice was loud and clear. The moment everyone heard it, the classroom suddenly went silent. No one dared to utter a word, everyone secretly glanced at Bai Luo Yin and You Qi. Unable to continue, Bai Luo Yin patted You Qi's back, signaled him to turn his body around. **** Next chapter title is: "You know what I want". Aaahhh I'm soooo excited to translate it ヾ( 〃∇〃)ﾂ I havent started it yet though, but I will soon (๑✪ω✪๑)

Are you Addicted?
Chapter 96: You know what I want. Happy sunday! ヾ( 〃∇〃)ﾂ Wish everyone have a lovely weekend! Whew, I'm too excited that I finished this in only one day ( ≧∀≦) This chapter ends with a cliffhanger, dont hate me ( ՞ټ՞ )
------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In every break between lessons, Yang Meng would always visit Bai Luo Yin's class. Every time the back door opened, anyone knows that it definitely is Yang Meng. Once it's opened, Bai Luo Yin will immediately say, "Why are you here again?" During break, Bai Luo Yin heard one thing from Yang Meng. During class, Bai Luo Yin would hear another thing from You Qi. Both of them doesn't seem to lie, one seemed really pitiful, one seemed really innocent. Bai Luo Yin felt really bad because he was caught between both of them. There was also one more person behind him who caused trouble. He didn't lend a hand to solve this problem, but he always starts a quarrel instead. After school finished, the first thing that Gu Hai saw when he opened the back door was Yang Meng again. Yang Meng retreated a few steps, he was scared when he saw Gu Hai. He felt that Gu Hai is a person who's really hard to approach. Bai Luo Yin is quite cold too. He really doesn't know how can these two people became close. "I want to go together with you!" Yang Meng's short body doesn't even reach Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, yet he still insist to jump and hug Bai Luo Yin. Arrived at the school gate, Bai Luo Yin stopped and then looked at Yang Meng, "It's okay now, right? He's living in the school dorm, he's not allowed to go out, you can rest assured and go home now!" "Who said that?" Yang Meng straightened his neck, "Last time when we went to your house, he was following me from behind! No, I have to go with you!" Gu Hai was behind Bai Luo Yin, he was pushing his bike, while waiting for Bai Luo Yin with calm yet dark expression.
402
你丫上瘾了? "Last time was a special case right? He ran out from the school while risking his marks deducted, he also needs to spend money to stay overnight, all of that just for cursing at you, is it worth it?" "Then I still want to walk together with you." Yang Meng being completely stubborn, "Since kindergarten we have always been walking together, how many years has it been? If it weren't for your previous teacher in charge of your class dragging your lessons all the time, would we ever go separate ways? Remembering about these things makes me feel sad, you see I'm alone by myself, to walk such a long way to home, is it easy for me?" "Okay okay...." Bai Luo Yin patted Yang Meng's shoulder kindly, "Lets go together, lets go together." The face of that person behind them became more gloomy. Bai Luo Yin glanced at Gu Hai, "Let's walk together three of us." Gu Hai suddenly kicked the pedal on his bike, he rode his bike and walked away, not answering Bai Luo Yin at all. "No..." Yang Meng unable to understand, "What's wrong with him? Why is it that every time I look at him, he wouldn't give me a smiling face at all?" Bai Luo Yin lowered his face, "Nothing, just ignore him!" "Last time he mocked me, you said those exact same words! Yin Zi, why did you attract a person like that?" Bai Luo Yin didn't say a word. Yang Meng's walk, how can it be called walking! He was completely dancing, he turned his head around every three steps. Bai Luo Yin couldn't bear to see it anymore, "Yang Meng, actually what's wrong with you? I asked You Qi already, he said he wasn't looking for you at all, he's not close with you, he said you framed him, and you intentionally sow discord between us!" "Fuck fuck fuck!" Yang Meng raised his arms and shouted, "That bastard! That fucking bastard!" When Bai Luo Yin saw that, he got the gist now. There must be something wrong between You Qi and Yang Meng. You Qi definitely harrassed Yang Meng. There's no doubt, and Yang Meng didn't exaggerated about it. You Qi probably think that Yang Meng is really amusing, he just wanted to play with him and nothing more, so he can't help but to tease him. "Hehe... You've arrived, go inside." 403
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin patted the back of Yang Meng's head once. Yang Meng stealthily looked around in all directions. He stood still and glanced for a few more times, until he was sure that no one was there, then he went inside his house calmly. After Bai Luo Yin sent Yang Meng home, he went back one alley, and he arrived at his home already. Gu Hai was standing at the entrance, his bike parked beside him. There was a pile of cigarette butts near his foot. Upon seeing Gu Hai, Bai Luo Yin spoke in a bad mood, "Go inside!" Even after Bai Luo Yin went inside the house, he still couldn't see Gu Hai shadow following him. Bai Luo Yin kicked the threshold, his heart was full of anger. So you're giving me attitude now? If you're really capable then just stand outside for the whole night! "Son, you came back? What about Da Hai?" Bai Han Qi asked. Bai Luo Yin didn't say anything, he put down his school bag and walked into his bedroom, slammed the door. Ten minutes passed, still no movements from the outside. Bai Luo Yin didn't know whether Gu Hai is still standing outside or he went inside already. Not long after that, Aunt Zou's voice can be heard from outside. "Da Hai, why are you not going inside? What's wrong with this kid? Who are you sulking with? Oh dear... And why are you still smoking! Go inside quickly! It's really cold here!..." When Bai Han Qi heard that he immediately went outside. Not long after that, he ran to Bai Luo Yin's room, knocking on the door. "Son, come out!" A really stern voice. Bai Luo Yin opened the door. Bai Han Qi was exasperated, "Why are you so ignorant? Why are you locking Da Hai outside? What did he do to provoke you again? I say, you're so stubborn, since you were young until now, only your way is the right way. Da Hai is a really good kid, your dad doesn't have such a good brother like him. I really want to have a good brother like him, I..." "Who lock him out?" Bai Luo Yin replied full of anger, "It was him who refused to come in!" 404
你丫上瘾了? "If you weren't pressuring him, wouldn't he come in? "Who's pressuring him?" Bai Luo Yin yelled. Bai Han Qi took a deep breath, he was annoyed, "Dont say that, call him to go inside quickly!" "I'm not going!" Bai Luo Yin sat on the chair. Bai Han Qi also shouted, "If you're not going then I'll go!" "You don't need to go!" Bai Luo Yin wanted to stand up and stop Bai Han Qi but it was too late. Bai Han Qi already walked outside with a big steps. Bai Luo Yin followed behind him, he clenched his teeth. Gu Hai you're really cruel, so you're using this trick now, huh? You're the one who's in the wrong and you're still annoying me like this. Just go freeze to death! "Da Hai, listen to uncle's words, go inside! Dont bother yourself arguing with him, he just likes to mess around since he was small!" Bai Luo Yin suddenly kicked the door and went outside. "Dad, you don't need to persuade him, just let him stand outside!" "I think you should be the one standing outside!" Bai Han Qi raised his eyebrows. Gu Hai persuaded Bai Han Qi, "Uncle, don't bother with me, just go inside first. I'll stay here for a while, it's refreshing!" "It's refreshing" - Gu Hai stressed those two words. Bai Luo Yin fixed his gaze on Gu Hai firmly, "So you're not going in, right?" Gu Hai replied, "Wasn't it you who made me stand outside?" Bai Luo Yin exerted his strength to pull Bai Han Qi, and dragging him inside step by step. Gu Hai just stared at Bai Luo Yin without saying anything, but he was screaming inside countless times, so you're cruel enough to leave me outside like this? Can't you say something to coax me? Sometimes, man can be weak and fragile too, we also need some affection, right?..... "It's raining ice crystals!" Bai Han Qi sighed, his eyes kept glancing towards the door. Bai Luo Yin looked at the outside, ice crystals covered the shoes with a layer of frost. He didn't enter the house at all, he kept himself busy with this and that on the yard. 405
Are you Addicted? Actually, he kept feeling the temperature outside, just in case if the temperature suddenly dropped, if he were inside the house then he wouldn't notice it. After Bai Han Qi said that, Bai Luo Yin finally went back into the house. After ten minutes passed, Bai Luo Yin ran through the door with a frown on his face. Gu Hai was still standing there full of energy, just like a soldier doing his guard duty. Bai Luo Yin breathed a few mouthful of cold air, said angrily, "Come inside!" At first, Gu Hai didn't give any reply. And then, he raised his lip and smiled. He felt really happy that it melted the frost on his lips. Bai Luo Yin went into the house, and passed Gu Hai a hot water bag. Gu Hai put his hands in it, intentionally moved closer to Bai Luo Yin, raised his eyebrows and asked, "It's so warm! When did you charge it up? How come I didn't see you doing that?" "Are you using it or not? If not, then hand it over!" Bai Luo Yin reached his hand out to grab it. Gu Hai blocked him and he felt that Bai Luo Yin's hands were colder than his. "Why are your hands also cold?" The smile on Gu Hai's face suddenly disappeared. Bai Luo Yin pulled his hands away, and spoke with an unfriendly tone, "While you were standing outside, my dad was so upset. How can I still have the face to stay inside the house?" Gu Hai felt touched yet very apologetic. He used the hot water bag to warm his own hands, then he pulled Bai Luo Yin's hands in to warm him up too. Bai Luo Yin resisted a bit, but Gu Hai won't let it go. A pair of big hands wrapped another pair of big hands. Once in a while, Gu Hai even breathed into the bag. Although it was a little awkward, but it also had an indescribable warmth. At night before sleep, Bai Luo Yin was soaking his legs in his room. Gu Hai didn't enter at all. After Bai Luo Yin finished, he went outside to take a look. He saw that Gu Hai was in the kitchen, didn't know what was he busy with. "Uncle, it's been boiling for a while, is it done now?" "Yes, that's enough. You can serve it now." Gu Hai filled a bowl with ginger soup and carefully carried it outside. Upon seeing Bai Luo Yin standing on the yard, he couldn't help but to complain, "Why did you come outside? Come back inside quickly! It's really cold!" 406
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin looked at the ginger soup inside the bowl. He moved his lips, but didn't say a word. "Try it, how's the taste?" Gu Hai asked. Bai Luo Yin drank two big gulps, "A little hot." "The hotter it is, the better it is to dispel the cold. Drink some more." "Aren't you going to drink?" Bai Luo Yin glanced at Gu Hai. Gu Hai was drowning in fondness, he smiled, "I'll drink after you finish yours." Both of them drank a big bowl of ginger soup, then prepared to sleep. Gu Hai suddenly saw a bruise on Bai Luo Yin's ankle. His breathing stopped. He pulled Bai Luo Yin's leg without any explanation and asked, "How did you get this?" "You're asking how did i get this? During the day someone was being an idiot and kicked me." Gu Hai suddenly felt vexed, he remembered that he didn't use that much force! How did his kick turned out to be like that? His fingers stroked that area gently, he was feeling very angry inside. Bai Luo Yin hurting himself is one thing, he made Bai Luo Yin hurt is another thing. That fiery arrogance he felt in the afternoon was completely collapsed, only remorse and guilt remained. "Does it hurt?" Gu Hai asked. Bai Luo Yin used this chance to retaliate, "Nonsense, do you want to try to get a beating?" Gu Hai suddenly leaned down, and placed his lips gently on the bruise. Bai Luo Yin's body stiffened, he immediately pushed Gu Hai away. "Stop fooling around, my dad is outside!" "I don't care, I'm so worried. I just want to kiss. Otherwise, I won't be able to get over it." "How big a thing is this?" Bai Luo Yin felt embarrassed and angry, "I was kidding! It doesn't hurt at all. I often knock against things all the time, it's no big deal. Hurry and get up!" Not only he didn't move, Gu Hai even kissed that area more intensely. At first he only used his lips to rub, but then he even used his tongue. Bai Luo Yin's expression changed, then he kicked Gu Hai. "Do you feel no shame?" 407
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai laughed and grabbed Bai Luo Yin's leg, spoke shamelessly yet full of concern, "I know I was in the wrong in this matter, I shouldn't treat your buddies like that. But Yin Zi, I really can't control my emotions. I feel really insecure inside. If you can give me a confirmation, I won't feel tortured like this!" I give you a confirmation and I wont have my sense of security again. Bai Luo Yin replied Gu Hai in his mind. Outside, Bai Luo Yin still pretended to be indifferent. "What sense of security do you want? Is it not enough that you're free-loading here everyday? How much more do you want?" Gu Hai grabbed the blanket forcefully, then he completely wrapped himself and Bai Luo Yin inside. He hugged the guy beside him tightly, without leaving any gap in between. He placed his lips against Bai Luo Yin's ears. "You know what I want." ****** Next chapter title: "Finally received the answer."

Their breaths became heavier under the blanket, their chests were pressed against each other, they could entirely feel each other's heartbeat. Bai Luo Yin was flustered, the pitch dark night has become his best protection. He could feel that Gu Hai's face was getting closer. Bai Luo Yin moved back a little, but he couldn't avoid Gu Hai. Gu Hai sucked Bai Luo Yin's lower lip. Then the tip of his tongue licked Bai Luo Yin's lips slowly, as if he was testing Bai Luo Yin's patience. When Gu Hai felt that Bai Luo Yin's body started to relax, he slowly pulled himself away. With a 'pop', both of their lips separated, leaving a mixed feelings behind. Bai Luo Yin gradually became more and more accustomed to kissing this person. Initially it was just an acceptance, that it wasn't disgusting. But now, he really enjoyed himself. Gu Hai's affectionate stare followed Bai Luo Yin's eyes, he wanted to convey his thirst for Bai Luo Yin. He needs his answer, not only physically, but also emotionally. And yet he also scared to know the answer. He's scared that with just one passionate gaze from Bai Luo Yin, it would drown him in a bottomless pit of love. Gu Hai's tongue swept across Bai Luo Yin's chin, as if he was waiting for Bai Luo Yin to give him permission to continue. He wasn't as fierce as before. This time Gu Hai is really soft and gentle. Just like what he promised: I can love you dearly, whenever and wherever, I will always give a consideration to your feelings. I will respect you as a man, I will wait for you until you can accept me. Eventhough I always try to control you, and sometimes I stepped over the line, but I placed you really high in my heart, and no one can't even
409
Are you Addicted? hope to reach you. If one day you finally become mine, it will be the greatest honour of my life. Bai Luo Yin slightly opened his mouth, he fell apart inside, but he also felt relieved. Gu Hai immediately inserted his tongue inside, his tongue swept every corner of Bai Luo Yin's mouth. Bai Luo Yin wasn't good at kissing, and Gu Hai had never kissed someone as gentle as this time. So when they were kissing, they soon became breathless. But this breathlessness aroused them even more. Gu Hai's thin lips fiercely sucked Bai Luo Yin's tongue over and over again, savoring the taste of Bai Luo Yin's tongue, until a trickle of saliva slid down from Bai Luo Yin's mouth. The moment Gu Hai pulled his lips away from Bai Luo Yin, he noticed the saliva on Bai Luo Yin's lip. It was such a lewd view, it made Gu Hai's throat tightened. Unable to hold himself back, he kissed Bai Luo Yin again. This time, Bai Luo Yin was the one who inserted his tongue first. Gu Hai stunned, he suddenly tightened his arm that was embracing Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin's tongue explored inside Gu Hai's mouth, even he himself did not expect that he would take an initiative like this. Gu Hai playfully used the tip of his tongue to tease Bai Luo Yin's, the meaning is: come! I want to see what you can do. Bai Luo Yin used his hand to hold Gu Hai's head, his tongue reached deep inside Gu Hai's mouth. Gu Hai didn't expect that Bai Luo Yin could be bold like this. Gu Hai opened his eyes in shock, one handsome and aroused face appeared before his eyes, a face that made his heart beats faster and his cheeks overflowed with tenderness. Bai Luo Yin stretched and twirled his tongue just like a surging waves, drawing Gu Hai's heart closer to himself. Their heartbeats were like two horses running wildly on the boundless prairie. Gu Hai's magnificient lower part started to erect, he held Bai Luo Yin's head, his lips began to play on Bai Luo Yin's face. He kissed his forehead, bit the tip of his nose, licked his beard stubble.... Until he reached Bai Luo Yin's neck, he lightly nibbled that fair skin on his neck, then sucked it. "Yin Zi, are you sleeping already?" Bai Han Qi's voice can be heard from the outside. Bai Luo Yin's body stiffened. Just when he was about to answer, Gu Hai's hand covered his mouth. Then, Gu Hai began to bite and lick Bai Luo Yin's chest. He used that opportunity to stretch his leg out, and used his knee to rub against Bai Luo Yin's crotch. Anxiety, fear, and excitement intertwined inside Bai Luo Yin's mind. 410
你丫上瘾了? The knocking sound was still there. Bai Luo Yin's forehead was full of sweats. Every part of his body has been bitten and sucked by Gu Hai. Even under this kind of situation, he was still being bold. His breath under Gu Hai's palm felt hot. Finally, the sound of footsteps leaving from the door can be heard. Gu Hai released his hand that was covering Bai Luo Yin's mouth. Bai Luo Yin cursed him in a low voice, "Do you want to die?" Gu Hai rubbed his own cock against Bai Luo Yin's, he slightly groaned, then said, "You were enjoying it too, right?" Feeling angry, Bai Luo Yin suddenly grabbed Gu Hai's cock with his hand. That sudden touch made it grow larger in his hand. It was like a little monster, the size was alarming, and it's standing vigorously. "Move your hand." Gu Hai looked at Bai Luo Yin, almost begging him. Bai Luo Yin clearly had never touched another man's cock before, he wanted to pull his hands back but Gu Hai's hand held him in his place. Then, he slowly moved his hand from the bottom to the head, feeling the wrinkle on it and the friction between his palm. Gu Hai let out a small moan, he placed his jaw on Bai Luo Yin's chest, his stare was lustful. "Baby... faster please.. both of us are men, what are you shy about?" Bai Luo Yin shouted in his mind, it is exactly because we are both men that's why it is so embarrassed! Gu Hai stretched his hands out to reach another little monster between Bai Luo Yin's thighs, his little finger stroked Bai Luo Yin's pubic hair gently, it made Bai Luo Yin's face blushed. Then, he began to move his hand fiercely, he touched the sensitive tip, and made Bai Luo Yin trembled. Maybe the pleasure made Bai Luo Yin got carried away, Bai Luo Yin's hand started pumping again. This, beyond doubt, aroused Gu Hai even more. Gu Hai shamelessly commanded Bai Luo Yin, his breath became heavier. "A little bit lower... Do it faster... Yes.... That feels good....." Needless to say, Gu Hai's technique was really good, he changed various tricks to stimulate Bai Luo Yin, it was as if he know how to please Bai Luo Yin better than Bai Luo Yin himself. Bai Luo Yin couldn't control himself anymore. The pleasure made him 411
Are you Addicted? forget about his own defense and principles. That excitement made him begs for release. Gu Hai bit Bai Luo Yin's body, yelled 'Yin Zi' over and over again. When Bai Luo Yin heard Gu Hai called his name, he felt that his guard collapsed in a flash, he pulled Gu Hai into his embrace. Muffled groans can be heard, as their bodies trembled in orgasm. It continued for almost one minute, until their breaths gradually relaxed. Their blanket was drenched with sweats. One of their briefs was pressed underneath their bottom, and another briefs was on top of their leg. Gu Hai used his hand to wipe Bai Luo Yin's sweats, gently asked, "Did you feel good?" Bai Luo Yin didn't reply. His mind was still in a daze. The second time, this happened for the second time already, Bai Luo Yin sent a warning to himself, actually what's wrong with you? Why don't you have any self control at all? "My butt is wet from all the sweats", Gu Hai teased Bai Luo Yin, "Let me see if your butt is wet as well." "Go away!" Bai Luo Yin shouted. Gu Hai fixed his gaze at Bai Luo Yin for a while, then softly replied, "Yin zi, listen to me first, don't get angry." Bai Luo Yin knew that Gu Hai won't say anything decent, so he quickly interrupted, "You don't need to say anything, I dont want to hear it." Gu Hai pulled him into his embrace, "What if I still insist to say it?" Bai Luo Yin covered Gu Hai's mouth with his hands. Gu Hai's hand suddenly reached towards Bai Luo Yin's back, trailing down his back slowly, until he arrived to that spot between his butt. Bai Luo Yin suddenly grabbed Gu Hai's hand. His gaze was ferocious! Gu Hai narrowed his eyes slightly, a sense of excitement mixed in his voice. "Really, I really want it..."
412
你丫上瘾了? "Never!" Bai Luo Yin grabbed Gu Hai's hand and throw it back, "If you want to use this to give yourself a sense of security, let me tell you, don't even think you can get it in your entire life!" The shock soften Gu Hai's hard cock. "Yin zi, you're mistaken." Gu Hai paused his words as he moved closer to face Bai Luo Yin, "I want to be with you not because of this. I am a normal man. If I only want this, why don't I just go and looking for a girl? I want to be with you because I like you so much, that's why I'm longing for your touch. Actually you are really pure in my mind, so much that I don't want to dirty you." "Gu Hai, we are both men. All the things that we can do together has been done." Gu Hai pulled Bai Luo Yin's hands, "It doesn't matter to me what can we do. I just want to know, what am I to you in your heart?" "Two men talking about these things, don't you think that it's too ridiculous?" Bai Luo Yin glanced at Gu Hai. Gu Hai refused to give up, "Even if it's ridiculous I still have to ask, do you like me?" Bai Luo Yin ignored Gu Hai and turned his body around. Gu Hai moved closer to Bai Luo Yin, "Are you a little moved?" "Sleep." Bai Luo Yin replied indifferently. Gu Hai pinched Bai Luo Yin's bare bottom, "Do you think you're going to lose 2 kilos if you just admit to it?" Bai Luo Yin unable to restrain his anger, he turned around and gave a punch on GuHai's cheekbone. "Why are you asking if you already know the answer?" Gu Hai's body collapsed back onto the bed, he was overwhelmed with happiness. ******

Chapter 98: Finally Found the Main Culprit.
Hello everyone! I'm so glad so many of you enjoyed their *cough* naughty night *cough* from last chapter ( ՞ټ՞ ) So yesterday I just went to watch One Piece Film: Gold at the cinema, which caused me to upload this chapter one day late XD, but i looved it so much!! It was really cool! (๑✪ω✪๑) Enough with my rambles and enjoy~
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Early morning, Bai Luo Yin woke up from his sleep. He took one briefs out from inside the blanket and he wore it. After he wore his pants, he noticed that something was wrong. He lifted up his head, only to see a certain someone was standing in front of mirror with his briefs while shaving. "We're wearing the wrong briefs." Bai Luo Yin reminded Gu Hai faintly. Gu Hai lowered his head to take a look, then he turned his head around to face Bai Luo Yin. The area around his mouth was covered with foam, he let out a seductive smile. "That's why I wonder why is it so tight!" "You're so full of yourself!" Bai Luo Yin glanced at Gu Hai, "Our briefs obviously have the same type." "Oh...." Gu Hai let out an evil smile, "So you sneakily looked at my briefs type?" Bai Luo Yin was upset, he stretched his leg out to kick Gu Hai's solid butt. Gu Hai couldn't defend himself properly, his face bumped against the mirror, made it stained with the foams from his face. "Come here to change!" Bai Luo Yin scolded Gu Hai. Gu Hai turned his body around, he had a mischievous expression, "Okay, let's change the underwear. Take it off." Bai Luo Yin was dumbfounded. "Take off your briefs. If you don't take it off then how will you change it?" Gu Hai walked toward Bai Luo Yin to take his pants off.
414
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin retreated a few steps, but Gu Hai chased him relentlessly. Both of them was fooling around again and again until they fell on top of the bed. One was showing his ominous gaze, one was punching and kicking the other, laughter mixed with curses, made this sleepy morning became much livelier. "Yin zi! Yin zi!" Yang Meng's alluring voice can be heard from the yard. Bai Luo Yin looked outside through the window, he exerted himself to push Gu Hai with one push, "Wear your clothes quickly, Yang Meng came already." "Why is he coming again?" Gu Hai frowned his eyebrows. Bai Luo Yin warned him, "I'm telling you, don't be mean to him again!" "Yes, I know." Gu Hai replied unwillingly. Yang Meng lifted the door curtain open. He saw Gu Hai was in the middle of putting his clothes on, and Bai Luo Yin was wearing his shoes. The blanket on the bed was in a great mess, pair of socks scattered under the bed. The air inside the room was heavy with male hormones aroma. Two tall and good looking guys were busy with their own things, the scene was harmonious, yet wasn't at the same time. They went to Aunt Zou's breakfast stall together to eat, Yang Meng stared blankly at how much those two boys ate. They ate more than five times of his portion alone. On the street, Gu Hai leisurely rode his bike in front, Bai Luo Yin walked with Yang Meng behind. "So both of you have always been living together?" Yang Meng lowered his voice to ask. Bai Luo Yin immediately acknowledged it, "It's been around two months." Yang Meng was surprised, "Didn't you hate it when you have to sleep with other person?" When Gu Hai heard it he felt a sense of accomplishment, his speed became even slower. Bai Luo Yin took a quick glance at Gu Hai, lightly replied: "He didn't have anywhere to go, what can I do? So we just decided to live together." Gu Hai put his legs down on the ground, he raised his eyebrows in anger. He glared at Bai Luo Yin, clearly threatening him. Little boy, do you believe that I would call you 'my wife' in front of him?! After walking for some time, Bai Luo Yin almost done with his explanation about him and Gu Hai's condition. When Yang Meng heard about it, he became terrified. "What? So you're saying that he is your step father's son? That.... That general's son?" 415
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin nodded his head. Gu Hai just listened to them quietly, he didn't interrupt them, nor did he stop them. This is not a disgraceful thing anyway, if Bai Luo Yin is willing to talk about it then let him do it. Sooner or later he has to explain this matter clearly to Li Shuo and Hu zi too. Yang Meng couldn't really understand the situation, he couldn't help but to interrupt Bai Luo Yin. "So is it your mom marrying his dad? Or his mom marrying your dad?" Bai Luo Yin hit Yang Meng's head once, "You say? Of course it's my mom marrying his dad." "Then why is he living at your house? This doesn't follow any logic!" Yang Meng blinked his eyes. Bai Luo Yin suddenly got a headache, this matter is indeed hard to say. "He doesn't get along with his dad, I don't get along with my mother. So it just happened like that." Yang Meng nodded his head although he didn't quite understand. He rubbed his hand. "It's really dramatic! Fortunately those guy that I found that time ran away. Otherwise if they really went to cause a trouble at the wedding ceremony and ruined the marriage, you won't get such a good brother like this!" Bai Luo Yin was still unable to forget about this matter. "Oh right, I haven't been able to ask about it clearly, actually what's wrong with those guys? How can they just took the money and quit the job?" Yang Meng found it difficult to explain, "So this happened. That day there were two reporters carrying video cameras, didn't know where they came from. When those four people saw that reporters, they were flustered, they were afraid they will be on newspaper! They went to rob their cameras, who would've thought that those two reporters would be panicking! Just when they started chasing, those two abandoned their cameras and ran away. I also can't blame my uncle because he couldn't find people properly. He found four misers, after they got those video cameras they just ran away, i heard that they even sold it with a high price..." Gu Hai stopped his bike. Yang Meng who walked behind Gu Hai, felt scared because Gu Hai stopped so suddenly. "What did you say? You sent someone to cause a trouble at the wedding ceremony?" Yang Meng glared at Bai Luo Yin, "It was him who asked me to do it." 416
你丫上瘾了? "Then who did they met with?" "Two reporters." Yang Meng made a V gesture with his fingers. Gu Hai's face turned green, "And then?" Yang Meng confessed everything, "And then.... they robbed those reporter's video cameras. It can't be helped." ....... A mystery for more than 3 months finally solved just like this. After he felt troubled for a long time, it turns out that the criminal is here! He persistently investigated who was the main culprit, and unexpectedly it was his enchanting and charming good wife! Gu Hai stared at them with a tearless grief. When Bai Luo Yin saw Gu Hai's response, his heart skipped for a bit, he couldn't help but to ask, "Those two reporters, was it you who sent them there?" Gu Hai didn't say anything, but looking at his response, Bai Luo Yin knew it. "Did you send them there to sabotage the wedding ceremony too?" Gu Hai's expression became more unsightly. Yang Meng at the side understood everything now, he couldn't help but to beat his chest in sorrow, "Oh my god! It can't be that two sides were actually partners, but on the contrary they killed each other instead?" Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai looked at each other awkwardly. Yang Meng became the peacemaker instead, patted Gu Hai's shoulder, then patted Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, advised them: "Both of you should be happy, this is called fate. Think about it, supposed if the marriage wasn't happening, you wont leave your home and move to this school, also you won't be able to meet Yin zi. You too, you won't be able to meet someone who has the same misfortune as you, willingly let him stay at your house, being devoted to him, talk about everthing to him. If it isn't like this, your feelings towards each other wont be this strong. You say, what I said makes sense, right?" Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin tacitly swept their eyes over Yang Meng. "Even if you didnt say that we knew it already." Yang Meng, "....." Every day after school, Bai Luo Yin would definitely visit the dog cage to see A Lang's condition. Is he eating enough? Should the water on the tray get changed or not..... Bai Luo Yin treated A Lang carefully and patiently. Everyday before he went to school and 417
Are you Addicted? after he went back home he would always interact with A Lang affectionately. Otherwise A Lang would seems like he had no energy for a whole day. "Let's go to take A Lang for a walk." Bai Luo Yin said to Gu Hai. Gu Hai opened the cage and let A Lang out. Once A Lang ia out he would run to Bai Luo Yin's embrace, and act spoiled as much as he likes. Bai Luo Yin played with him for a while, he saw Gu Hai beside him was burning with jealousy. Two of them walked outside from the yard, they headed towards east, to the river bank. Elder people often went to the river bank to go for a stroll there. On the street, A Lang would bark everytime he saw a stranger, it made everyone who walked there kept a distance from them. They walked along the riverbank, a group of sparrows flew over their heads. The weather was very cold, a thin layer of ice has formed on the riverbank, the wind that blew across their face felt extremely painful. Bai Luo Yin's hand that held the dog chain felt really cold, so cold that it turned purple. Gu Hai turned his body to the side, he lifted up Bai Luo Yin's zipper. Bai Luo Yin's gaze fixed on the other side of the river. Aunt Zou was dressed in a red cashmere coat, her hands were inside her pocket, she laughed occasionally. Her simple and genuine face matched with the mild ruddy color of sunset glows. It was as if she went back to her twenties, her tiring and wan face from her work couldn't be seen anymore. That man was standing beside her, he completely changed his entire image. He was dressed in a nice clothes and carried a warm smile. His every movement wasn't rough and clumsy like usual. They didn't notice that there were two people watching them from the other side of the river. They were looking at each other, didn't even try to hide the affection in their gaze. Bai Luo Yin felt a complicated feelings in his heart. He felt really happy, yet somehow he felt sad. "Pick the date and get the matter done." Gu Hai spoiled surrounding atmosphere with this one sentence. Bai Luo Yin gave Gu Hai a sideways glance, "Do you think marriage is a simple thing?" "I'm just getting anxious for them." Bai Luo Yin was puzzled, "What are you getting anxious for?" 418
你丫上瘾了? "Once they're living together later, won't you become a third wheel? When that time comes, a third wheel like us will have to go to our new house together living our own happy life, how nice!" Bai Luo Yin went silent for a while, then he patted A Lang's head, "Son, go bite him!" **** so I wonder, do you guys prefer if I write the note just below the sentence or should i just write the note at the end of the chapter just like usual? Which one do you prefer? Thank you for answering!

Chapter 99: A Poor Man Comes to Make Trouble. Hello everyone~ After went through all of the comments, I found out that your answers were like 50:50... XD Soo.... after I thought about it again, I decided to keep the notes at the end of the chapter. I myself prefer that too because then you can keep reading the story without any distraction, and i'm sure many of you got used to this already ヾ( 〃∇〃)ﾂ I hope everyone who chose "below the sentence" won't hate me (/-＼*)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Saturday morning, Gu Hai was dressed in a nice clothes, squatted beside the bed and then pinched Bai Luo Yin's face. "I'm going out for a while." Bai Luo Yin just woke up from his sleep, his sleepy voice was somewhat sluggish. "Where are you going?" "My brother returned today, I'm going to meet him at the airport." Bai Luo Yin rubbed his eyes, "Your brother? Biological brother? Why have I never heard you talking about him before?" "Not biological, it's my cousin. He's living abroad, there's not many opportunity for us to meet. This time he came back because of his business too, he will be here just for a few days and then he will go back." Bai Luo Yin sat on the bed, "Ng... Then you should go before you late." Gu Hai stared at Bai Luo Yin for a while, "What are you going to do today?" "I don't have any plan. Maybe I will do my homework, or maybe I will go to Aunt Zou's stall to see if there's anything I can help." "Don't run around anywhere else!" Gu Hai spoke as if he was persuading a little kid. Bai Luo Yin frowned, "Don't mind me, quickly do your own things." Gu Hai softly patted Bai Luo Yin's cheeks, then walked outside. After Gu Hai left, Bai Luo Yin couldn't sleep anymore, so he changed his clothes and went out. "Aunt."
420
你丫上瘾了? Aunt Zou was in the middle of preparing inside her stall, upon seeing Bai Luo Yin, her face was overflowed with gentle smile. "Yin zi, you came already." Bai Luo Yin nodded his head, and walked until he arrived at the kitchen, several chefs were very busy with their own things inside. Now Aunt Zou's stall is not only selling breakfast, but also lunch and dinner, just like a small restaurant. Because the price is cheap, the hygiene is clean, and the food tastes good, every day the shop always full of people. If some people didn't get any seat, they will order to bring the food home. Everytime Bai Luo Yin come over, Aunt Zou would always go to the kitchen and cook for him personally. "Aunt Zou, no need to do it. I can just eat anything." Aunt Zou shook her head, "It's not a trouble." As she said that, there was one customer yelled in a loud voice from outside, "Give me one more beef noodle soup." Aunt Zou's gaze changed, as if a hint of misery appeared on her eyes, but she didn't want to show it to Bai Luo Yin. She gave an instruction to the chef beside her, signaled him to give what the customer ordered. The chef was unwilling, "How many days has this person been eating without paying?" When Bai Luo Yin heard it he was dumbfounded, "Aunt Zou, this person has been eating without paying?" "Don't bother about him." Aunt Zou grabbed Bai Luo Yin's arm, "It's okay, he alone didn't eat that much. Come, sit over here. I made this for you." How can Bai Luo Yin still have the heart to eat? Bai Luo Yin grabbed Aunt Zou's busy hand, sternly asked, "Aunt, actually what's wrong?" Aunt Zou moved her lips, yet didn't say anything. Bai Luo Yin walked towards the dining area in large steps, and that man earlier was still shouting from the corner, "Can you be a bit faster? How much more time do want me to wait?" Everyone beside him had paid at the cashier already and got their number while waiting for their food, his desk was the only one that was empty, yet he was still shamelessly yelling at the waiters, and insulting them. Bai Luo Yin intentionally glanced at him, this man didn't seem like a robber, he seemed like he had suffered because of his poverty, the ribs on his chest could be seen. Bai Luo Yin couldn't see his real age because his face had changed too much from his hardships. He could only felt his fake cunning side of him.
421
Are you Addicted? When one waiter walked toward him while holding a bowl of noodles, this man suddenly glared at the waiter. "Why are you dawdling around? I've shouted for so many times already!" The waiter placed the bowl on his table unwillingly, then walked away with a worried expression. Who wouldn't feel annoyed with him? He deliberately made things difficult for every waiter here, the chef was busy for the whole day because of him, and he still complained that the foods are not tasty. Other customers queued up for the order numbers, he was the only one who walked directly toward a desk, and occupied one big desk by himself. He always drive everyone who wanted to sit with him away. Bai Luo Yin pulled out a chair, then sat in front of him. "Who let you to sit there?" That man glared at Bai Luo Yin as he eating his noodles. Bai Luo Yin coldly replied, "I let myself sit here." That man slammed the desk, Aunt Zou suddenly rushed out. "Meng Jian Zhi, don't be ungrateful." That man called Meng Jian Zhi spat his noodles to the bowl, he pointed his finger at Aunt Zou's nose, cursed at her, "You cheap woman still dare to argue with me? Disgusting whore! So what if I'm eating for free here? That's a given for me to eat yours, if it wasn't because of you, would I become like this now? It's your duty to support me, it's your duty to feed me, and you still offended me, you disgusting woman...." Bai Luo Yin grabbed Meng Jian Zhi's collar, he kicked him until he fell under the desk. "Who were you cursing at?" Meng Jian Zhi didn't hit Bai Luo Yin back, he was curling up underneath the table instead, cried out in pain, "Ouch! Ouch! You hit a person!" All the customers ran out already, the door was closed, they were peeking from the windows. "Meng Jian Zhi! Go away!!" Aunt Zou suddenly cried. Bai Luo Yin sensed that there must be something between them. Meng Jian Zhi grabbed one of the table leg, his face showed a suffering expression, "I'm dying now, you've hit me badly, so you have to pay for the compensation. If you're not paying then I won't go." Bai Luo Yin guessed that this guy wasn't able to attain success and thus drove himself to despair. He's a coward that likes to bully a honest person. This kind of person's biggest characteristic is that they like to pester someone endlessly and plague them 422
你丫上瘾了? with unreasonable demands, they take revenge because of his poverty on other people. In short, if he's suffering then other people has to suffer too. Maybe it was because of Bai Luo Yin's posture, maybe it was because everyone in the store couldn't see it anymore, some of the waiters immediately marched toward Meng Jian Zhi and kicked him, his exaggerated cry irritated other people's eardrums. Aunt Zou couldn't see it anymore, she stepped forward to stop everyone, "Don't hit him again. Don't hit him again." They stopped. Tears streamed down Aunt Zou's cheeks. "Bring him outside." When that man heard that, he immediately stopped his cry, angrily cursed again: "Zhou Xiu Yun, you're a bitch. You dare to drive me away! You're a good for nothing, your heart is too evil, if our son look at you...." "You still realized that you have a son?" Aunt Zou shouted, "Get lost!" Some people dragged Meng Jian Zhi outside. Bai Luo Yin brought Aunt Zou to the second f loor, her tears kept flowing all along. "Yin zi, I made you see a joke. And you haven't eat your breakfast yet. Wait here, I'll make something for you." "No need." Bai Luo Yin stopped Aunt Zou, "I'm not hungry." Bai Luo Yin already got the gist now, that Meng Jian Zhi must be the guy who went out to do business. Now he suddenly appeared here, it must be because he got the news from somewhere, that Aunt Zou had a small restaurant like this now, so he came to claim his credits. This kind of person is the most hateful person. "Aunt Zou, does my dad know about this?" Upon hearing Bai Han Qi's name, Aunt Zou's expression changed. He immediately grabbed Bai Luo Yin's hand, warned him in a low voice, "Don't talk about this matter to your dad. With his temperament, he definitely would beat Meng Jian Zhi up." "Hearing your words, do you still love him?" "Its not that I love him." Aunt Zou's face was full of worries, "I'm just scared that he would blackmail your father! You saw how disgusting he was, right? Is he a person? Everyday he would go to the store with anger, and for what? Isn't it so that one day we would get irritated with him, and we beat him up, after that he would hope that we will feed him for the rest of his life!"
423
Are you Addicted? "But you can't just let him make trouble like this, right? When you were suffering he didn't care at all. Now you just passed some good days, he shamelessly came over here. Aunt, you must not be soft on that kind of person, it wouldn't work!" "Yin zi." Aunt Zou pulled Bai Luo Yin's hand, "Aunt knows that you have good intention, but he's my kid's father after all. This is my own misfortune, I will take care of this on my own. Yin zi, listen to me. Don't talk about this matter with your dad, I will deal with him myself." When he heard that, Bai Luo Yin was at a loss. "Aunt, I'll ask you one thing. Have you divorced with him?" Aunt Zou lowered her gaze, she looked at the shiny tabletop, faintly sighed, "Actually we weren't married. We were so poor, besides not many people got their marriage certificate. Two people sat together and ate together, that much is enough. Initially we wanted to get marriage certificate, that's why he had to work outside. But then he ran away with other woman, he didn't go back for more than three years, this matter left unfinished. Those days were really hard to endure, my mother in law kept scolding at me, she said her son is not coming back because of me. I was so angry so I brought my son to Beijing. It's been five years since then. He never contacted me for five years. I thought that I'm completely done with this man. Who would've thought that..... Oh I won't say it anymore. The more I say it, the more devastated I feel." Bai Luo Yin hasn't answered yet when he heard Bai Han Qi shouted from below. "Son, son are you upstairs?" Aunt Zou quickly wiped her tears and straightened her clothes, warned Bai Luo Yin in a low voice, "Don't say anything to your dad, remember that." Bai Luo Yin nodded his head reluctantly. Bai Han Qi went upstairs, took a few deep breaths, then said to Bai Luo Yin, "Da Hai called me just now, he said that he will come here to pick you up later, he wants you to eat together with him." Bai Luo Yin seemed uninterested, "I dont want to go." "I've agreed for you already." Bai Han Qi rubbed Bai Luo Yin's head, "Just go. He just has a good intention for you." Bai Luo Yin didn't say anything, he just went downstairs immediately. Bai Han Qi stared at Aunt Zou for a long time, then asked, "Why is there a man laying outside the store?" Aunt Zou tried to cover it up, "Probably he's a beggar."
424
你丫上瘾了? "Why is a beggar staying in front of our store? Just wait here, I'll go there to drive him away." "Don't!" Aunt Zou suddenly pulled Bai Han Qi's clothes. Sensing his surprised look, she immediately controlled her flustered expression, "It's just one beggar, just ignore him. He will go in a few days." "You... you're too considerate." Bai Han Qi pretended to be angry at Aunt Zou. Aunt Zou forced a smile at him and then followed Bai Han Qi toward downstairs. *****

Chapter 100!!! ヾ( 〃∇〃)ﾂ Whew~ I can't believe that we've come this far~ 11 chapters left until we reach what @saehan01 started~ (๑ ᴗ ) I just read next two chapters and found out that we're going to have another juicy session again.... soon..... Gu Hai, now that yin zi accepted you already you've became even more shameless, huh? ( ՞ټ՞ ) And finally..... That man! Appeared!!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bai Luo Yin barely sat inside the car, when Gu Hai asked him, "What did you do earlier today?" "Oh, I just went to Aunt Zou's place." Bai Luo Yin replied indifferently. Gu Hai was able to feel the change in Bai Luo Yin's mood, he was fine this morning, but why is he in a bad mood after he came back? Who have made my wife upset? Gu Hai stretched his hand out to fiddle with a few strands of hair in front of Bai Luo Yin's eyes, he gently asked, "What happened?" "Nothing, let's go now." Gu Hai started his car, then he passed a box to Bai Luo Yin. "What is this?" Bai Luo Yin asked. Gu Hai strenuously backed his car along the alley, so he didn't reply Bai Luo Yin. Then Bai Luo Yin looked at the package, it was a phone. "Why did you buy a phone for me?" Bai Luo Yin asked Gu Hai again, "There's no need. Just give it to someone else." "How can you don't need it? This morning I couldn't find you." Bai Luo Yin leaned on the passenger seat, he closed his eyes, his voice was tired and sleepy. "You have money again?" "I don't have money." Bai Luo Yin opened his eyes, "You don't have money and yet you still bought this?" "My god of wealth has returned, right?" Gu Hai meant his cousin. Bai Luo Yin looked down upon Gu Hai, "You always sponge off other people!"
426
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai grinned, his smile was ambiguous, "He gave me money, so I should spend it." One man was sitting quietly in front of window inside a luxurious private room in a five star hotel. He wore black suits matched with simple but elegant necktie, the lightning inside the room made the outline of his face became sharper, his face was as if it was covered with a layer of ice frost. Although he heard the sound of a door opened, his expression didn't change at all. "Brother, this is Bai Luo Yin." That man didn't raise his eyes, he just replied faintly with an 'ng'. "This is my brother, Gu Yang." Bai Luo Yin replied Gu Hai in his mind, was everyone in your family born in water? [1] After they sat properly, the waiters began to serve the foods to their table, everything was a western food. Bai Luo Yin didn't have any appetite since the beginning, he didn't touch the foods on his plate, quietly thinking about Aunt Zou's matters. Gu Hai asked Bai Luo Yin, "No appetite?" Bai Luo Yin then picked his knife and his fork up, "Yes." Gu Yang beside him suddenly began to talk, a coldness seeped through his voice. "Hailuoyin." [2] Bai Luo Yin then lifted his head up to look straight at Gu Yang, he was stunned for a moment. His face was really similiar with Gu Hai, only their personalities were completely the opposite. After Gu Hai heard that, he paused for a moment, it seemed that he just noticed this particular detail. "Indeed, when you combine our names together it will become a drug."
It's a destiny, we infected each other already, don't even think to guard against it for the entire life. This dinner was really quiet, Gu Hai seemed like he just wanted to introduce Bai Luo Yin to Gu Yang, without any intention to get them closer. After all, Gu Yang and Bai Luo Yin's temperament are too similar, it would be very hard for both of them to get along. If Gu Hai wasn't there and both are them were having dinner alone, they would definitely freeze each other until death. From time to time, Gu Yang always glanced at Gu Hai. And whenever he does that, Gu Hai's eyes would always directed toward Bai Luo Yin. During the dinner, Gu Yang didn't look at Bai Luo Yin in the eye and he also didn't have a conversation with Bai Luo Yin. But, Bai Luo Yin could feel that his eyes were always 427
Are you Addicted? on him. It felt cold, sharp, and harsh. An indistinct sense of intimidation seeped through his gaze. On the way back, Bai Luo Yin remained silent all along. Gu Hai could feel that Bai Luo Yin's mood is really bad, it became even worse than before. He didn't know if it was because of Gu Yang or not. "My brother is that kind of shameful person, but his impression toward you is really good." Bai Luo Yin didn't say anything. Gu Hai saw that Bai Luo Yin's handsome face still looked displeased, he couldn't help but to rub it, while coaxing him: "You dont like it when he invited you to dinner? Later when I go back I will scold him for you." Bai Luo Yin leaned on the car seat, he closed his eyes, his brain was in a mess. The car went smoothly on the road, when suddenly Gu Hai slammed the brakes. Bai Luo Yin's body suddenly swayed. He opened his eyes. "What happened?" Gu Hai pointed his finger at the two silhouettes not far from them, he said, "Why do i feel like that woman over there resembles Aunt Zou so much!" Hearing Aunt Zou's name, Bai Luo Yin's face immediately changed. He looked outside through the car window, there were three shadows moving around, one man, one woman, and one little kid. At first the kid was with the man, then the woman snatched the kid away from him. After that the man kicked the woman until she fell down, then the man carried the kid in his arms and ran away. The woman stood up and chased the man relentlessly. Bai Luo Yin suddenly opened the car door and ran out. Gu Hai followed him from behind. "Meng Jian Zhi, you are not a human. Give the kid back to me!" While Bai Luo Yin was running quickly, Aunt Zou was quarreling with Meng Jian Zhi, their son was wailing. Tears with dusts mixed on Aunt Zou's face, there was a trace of blood on the corner of her mouth. "This is my son. Why do I have to give him to you?" Meng Jian Zhi pulled the struggling kid firmly. Gu Hai's face turned livid, he snatched the kid with one pull, then gave a kick on Meng Jian Zhi's face. Meng Jian Zhi flew for more than 2m because of Gu Hai's kick, then he fell on the ground and didn't get up. 428
你丫上瘾了? Aunt Zou hurriedly pulled her son into her embrace, she looked at Meng Jian Zhi, speechless. Gu Hai walked towards Meng Jian Zhi, he grabbed his collar, then suddenly he punched Meng Jian Zhi's stomach. Meng Jian Zhi immediately spat two mouthful of bloods. "Yin zi!" Aunt Zou shouted, "Stop Da Hai, don't let Da Hai hit him again." Bai Luo Yin pulled Gu Hai, persuading him, "It's enough, he's Aunt Zou's ex-husband." "I can see it." Gu Hai replied coldly, "It's because that he's that son's father, so I want to hit him." Meng Jian Zhi stood up from the ground, he threw himself at Gu Hai, then he grabbed Gu Hai's leg firmly, didn't let him go. No matter how hard Gu Hai kicked him, he didn't let go. His body was wriggling on the ground just like a mudskipper. "So you still want to blackmail me? Okay then, within three minutes, I will definitely give you your compensation." After he said that, Gu Hai took his phone out. Aunt Zou carried her son then ran towards Meng Jian Zhi, shouted at him, "You have to go! You can't afford to offend him! If you still want to live, then go away!" Meng Jian Zhi still doesn't let him go. Bai Luo Yin used his eyes to signal at Gu Hai, asked him to wait for a while. "Go quickly!" Aunt Zou shouted again, while her son crying loudly. Meng Jian Zhi unwillingly stood up from the ground, he glared at Gu Hai fiercely, swearing full of hatred: "You just wait for me, all of you just wait for me!" After he said that, he walked with a limp toward the east. In the car, Aunt Zou was still holding her son, unable to recover from the fright. She nestled closely to her son, feeling his existence, afraid that at the next second someone would snatch her son away from her again. Gu Hai looked at them through the rearview mirror, suddenly he remembered about his mother who had passed away. She loved him, she pampered him, she treasured him. He also had those days when he and his mother depended on each other. He could feel the importance of Aunt Zou for her son, it was like how his mother was important for him too. Eventually, this matter couldn't be hidden from Bai Han Qi anymore. 429
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai finally started the car and drove Aunt Zou and her son to Bai Luo Yin's home. Since this man appeared, Aunt Zou and her son wouldn't be able to stay by themselves at their house. If there's a little bit of mistake, the child could be missing. The only person they can rely on is Bai Han Qi. Aunt Zou had no choice but to tell Bai Han Qi the truth. Bai Han Qi didn't say anything further, he immediately closed the door and not letting Aunt Zou go. "Da Hai, for now let Yin zi stay at your place for a couple of days. You know it too, we don't have many rooms in this house..." Bai Han Qi felt embarrassed. Aunt Zou interrupted with her red and swollen eyes, "We can just stay in the spare room." "How can I let you stay in the spare room?" Bai Han Qi frowned his eyebrows, "I'll stay with the kid, you stay in Yin zi's room. If there's anything just shout for me anytime." The kid was in Aunt Zou's embrace, "I want to stay with mom." Gu Hai pinched that kid's cheeks, "How old are you? And you're still sleeping with your mom? Are you not shy?" Gu Hai pinched him once, he immediately took revenge on him, he stepped on Bai Luo Yin's foot. Then he looked at Gu Hai with a provoking expression. Gu Hai was surprised, this kid is really smart, huh? "Okay then, let's do this. Da Hai...." Bai Han Qi patted Gu Hai's shoulder, "Sorry to trouble you."
What kind of trouble is this? Gu Hai felt extremely pleased. Bai Luo Yin looked at Bai Han Qi full of worries, "Do you want me to stay here too? I'll sleep with you in one room, they can sleep together in one room. Just in case if something really did happen, I can help too." Gu Hai's expression changed, he immediately objected, "I think it's not necessary, so you don't believe in Uncle's strength? Besides, I gave him some kicks already today, it's enough to make him gone for at least a couple of days. You don't need to stay here, just go back with me!" Bai Luo Yin gave a sideways glance at Gu Hai, his intention was too obvious. Gu Hai remained unyielding, his overwhelming demeanor was like a soldier. He straightened his waist and his back, focusing his gaze on Bai Han Qi, and waiting for his instruction. "It's okay, Yin zi, just go back with Da Hai." 430
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai immediately placed his hand on Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, grinned broadly as they went out from the house. His smile chilled Bai Luo Yin down his spine. ***** Translator note: [1] Bai Luo Yin refer to their name Gu Hai (顾海) and Gu Yang (顾洋) if combined it would become Haiyang (海洋) means ocean. [2] Yes, it's heroin as we all know XD

Are you Addicted?
Chapter 101: Late Night House Visit. Hello everyone~ I really need some air after I finished this chapter orz I dont know if I will survive after translating the next chapter (//Д//).:* I love naughty Gu Hai and shy Bai Luo Yin~ ヾ( 〃∇〃)ﾂ
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"It's okay, don't think about it anymore." On the street, Gu Hai drove his car while holding Bai Luo Yin's hand, "There won't be any problem." One of Bai Luo Yin cheek was covered by the moonlight, his other cheek was under Gu Hai's burning gaze. One time his heart felt cold, another time it felt hot. Bai Luo Yin used his slender finger to rub his lip, pondering for a while, then lightly said: "I always feel that, a person like him is not someone who can be trifled with. He doesn't have any family, no one cares for him, he has no scruples, and he made troubles with us as if it was okay for him to die. He looked like he doesn't want to live, his heart was dark, he dared to do anything." Gu Hai sighed, "Actually, it's very easy if we want to beat him thoroughly, but it wouldn't be easy for Aunt Zou." "He was her husband after all, there is a little kid too." "You see, what are we talking about?" Gu Hai fiddled with Bai Luo Yin's palm, "Is this something that we should talk about? Their age is completely different with our thoughts. They have more worries compared to us, even if you think it over and over again it will be useless." Bai Luo Yin was silent, he stared at the night scene outside the window. Gu Hai slowly moved his hand from Bai Luo Yin's hand to Bai Luo Yin's leg, stroking them. "Yin zi, you're really good to Aunt Zou." Bai Luo Yin turned his gaze towards Gu Hai's face, "What are you saying?" "If I get into trouble one day, will you be so worried too?" Bai Luo Yin gave Gu Hai a "you are so stupid" look, the meaning is are you getting
jealous with Aunt Zou? 432
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai understood what Bai Luo Yin meant completely, he sugar-coated his words with a thick skin. "I'll get jealous over anything, big or small. As long as it is something to get jealous about, I'll get jealous. No matter if it is a human, a monster, a bird, I will take them all on." Bai Luo Yin smiled at Gu Hai's words. Upon seeing Bai Luo Yin's thin smile, Gu Hai got butterflies in his stomach. While Bai Luo Yin was staring blankly at the window, he took this opportunity to reach his hand out, and placed it on the soft flesh between Bai Luo Yin's legs. He began to reach the inside. "What are you doing?" Bai Luo Yin grabbed hold Gu Hai's hand firmly. Gu Hai's hand almost came into contact with Xiao Yin Zi. Bai Luo Yin looked at Gu Hai angrily, "Can you drive properly? It's very easy to have an accident on the highway." Gu Hai let out an evil smile, "As long as you're not resisting, there won't be any accident." Gu Hai didn't listen to Bai Luo Yin's words. One of Gu Hai's hand was on the steering wheel while the other hand was moving on Bai Luo Yin's body. Bai Luo Yin had goosebumps from Gu Hai's touches. Suddenly, a huge shadow passed in front of them. Bai Luo Yin urgently warned him, "Look!" Gu Hai made a sudden turn, he barely avoided the oil truck in front of them. Bai Luo Yin was so angry at Gu Hai that he went to sit at the back. Actually, both of them were a little aroused. Bai Luo Yin didn't want to let Gu Hai know about this so he intentionally moved to the back. But that Gu Hai became even more shameless. Both of Gu Hai's hands were on the steering wheel, yet that place below him stood up. Bai Luo Yin deliberately avoided Gu Hai's gaze, but he felt as if many little worms were crawling inside his heart. The lift reached 18th floor. The door of the house just closed, when Gu Hai impatiently pressed Bai Luo Yin against the wall beside them. His lips eagerly sealed Bai Luo Yin's lips. His hands unzipped Bai Luo Yin's jacket and pulled it down to the crook of his arm. Bai Luo Yin's chest was fully exposed to the touch of Gu Hai's big hands. Both of their breathing were somewhat rushing. Gu Hai constantly rub his member against Bai Luo Yin's swelling area. Their eyes were crimson red. In the darkness, they gazed at each other intensely. After two times doing it, Bai Luo Yin no longer felt uncomfortable. His hands hooked Gu Hai's head and he kissed him intensely. 433
Are you Addicted? The night burns with their passion and excitement. With their fingers locked together, two young and vigorous guys breathlessly bit each other's adam's apple and collar bone. Their little monsters below were restrained for a long time. Both were screaming to jump out from inside the pants. Gu Hai began to undo Bai Luo Yin's belt. Bai Luo Yin gripped his hand, "Go shower first." Gu Hai shamelessly asked, "Are we showering together?" "No." Bai Luo Yin flatly refused. After turning on the lights, he walked into Gu Hai's bedroom, took out the pyjamas that he wore the last time, went into the bathroom, and locked the door from inside. The whole process were all so smooth, leaving no gap for Gu Hai to be lost in wild and fanciful thoughts. Gu Hai stood alone outside the bathroom and grinded his teeth. Rascal, you're so great!
You got me fired up, but then you do nothing, and went into the bathroom as you please. Wait until you come out, I will inspect Xiao Yin Zi. If something happened to it, I'll get you! After a while, a melodious doorbell can be heard inside the house. Bai Luo Yin was puzzled, who would be coming here at this time? Gu Hai's dad? Bai Luo Yin saw through the peephole, his heart suddenly shivered, he thought such a ridiculous thing. Gu Hai obviously was in the bathroom, how can he suddenly went outside the door? After he finally came to his senses, he realized that it was Gu Hai's brother, Gu Yang. Bai Luo Yin opened the door. Gu Yang seemed to feel surprised inside his heart, but he didn't show it on the outside. Gu Hai only explained a few things regarding Bai Luo Yin, but he didn't say that he and Bai Luo Yin are living together. The fact that Gu Hai accepted Jiang Yuan's son willingly like this, Gu Yang couldn't understand it. "What do you like to drink?" Bai Luo Yin asked. Gu Yang didn't answer him, he just walked towards the refrigerator, and opened it. He didn't take anything out, just coldly said, "The refrigerator is too small, it won't fit many things, change to the bigger one tomorrow." Bai Luo Yin didn't answer, he felt that it wasn't directed towards him, it was just Gu Yang talking to himself and that's all. "The color of the carpet doesn't match with the tea table, the pendant light's pattern is too old fashioned and simple, so it matched with such a relaxed dining table. The tassels on the window curtain is too eye catching, the wall colour behind the TV gives 434
你丫上瘾了? out such a depressed feeling..... From where did you hire the designer? He designed this house badly." Bai Luo Yin kept being silent, he guessed that Gu Yang figured it out already that he was the one who chose everything in this house, so he intentionally said those words to him.
Just say what you want, I'll do my own things. Bai Luo Yin opened the phone box, then took it out. He simply looked at the manual once, and he began to test the phone's functions. Gu Yang fixed his gaze firmly on the phone in Bai Luo Yin's hand, after Xiao Hai met me
at the airport he hurriedly went to the mobile phone store, was it to buy a phone for him? After more than one year not seeing him, this kid has become more mature? He knows how to care for someone now? Or, is it directed towards this person alone? "Yin zi...." Gu Hai shouted affectionately from inside the bathroom, "I forgot to bring my pyjamas, find one for me and bring it here." Gu Hai completely had no idea that his brother listened to him too. Bai Luo Yin didn't lift his head up, he just yelled towards the bathroom, "Just wrap yourself in a towel and come out." Gu Hai slightly smile, why do I need to put on a towel? I can just walk out naked! Then, tragedy happened. Gu Hai walked out full of dignity. The Xiao Hai Zi between his legs were raised high. Just like that... he appeared in front of Gu Yang with a strong presence. The atmosphere inside the house became still. Gu Yang's eyes and the sturdy Xiao Hai Zi made contact. Gu Yang swiftly shifted his eyes away. The frown on his forehead showed an unusual feeling, clearly showing his unhappiness at Gu Hai's casual action. "Eh..... Brother, why are you here?" Gu Hai quickly went back into the bathroom and wrapped himself in a towel, then came out. "I came to see you," Gu Yang leaned against the bathroom door, and asked nonchalantly, "You don't even hide from him, why are you hiding from me?" Gu Hai laughed and replied, "Someone like you who's so strict, how could you be able to stand my vulgar actions?" Gu Yang raised his leg and kicked Gu Hai on his butt, as if he was teaching a lesson to a naughty kid, "Be more cautious next time."
435
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai smiled casually, then walked towards Bai Luo Yin. He glared at him while pretending to get angry, lowered his voice and asked, "Why didn't you tell me if my brother came here?" Bai Luo Yin just laughed, didn't say anything. "You're too cruel!" Gu Hai used his finger to poke Bai Luo Yin's forehead, "Just wait until my brother left, I'm going to teach you a lesson." "Your brother won't go anytime soon." "How would you know?" "Just see for yourself." Bai Luo Yin secretly gave a sideway glance at Gu Yang. Half hour passed, Gu Yang put down the magazine on his hand, and he began to walk around inside the house. He didn't say anything, he was just moving around silently in Gu Hai's sight. Finally Gu Hai couldn't bear it anymore, he asked, "Brother, why aren't you leaving yet?" "Why are you chasing me out?" Gu Yang narrowed his eyes, "Am I in the way of you two? Just do what you want to do!" Gu Hai's throat tightened, he straightened his neck then said, "We should sleep." "Why are you sleeping so early?" Gu Yang's gaze was full of suspicions, "Doesn't young guys at your age only sleep when it's really late? It barely passed eight now, even elder people are still up." "Don't 'people at your age' at us.... aren't you just two years older?" Bai Luo Yin suddenly choked up, only two years older? This guy seems really old
compared to Gu Hai!! Gu Yang placed down the magazine in his hand, he raised his lip, "Since you want to rest, then I wont disturb you anymore. Remember to cover up with more blankets at night, don't get cold." Gu Hai nodded his head. Gu Yang hasn't wear his shoes properly yet, but Gu Hai already opened the door for him. Bai Luo Yin also stood up, then he watched as Gu Yang left. Before Gu Yang left, he gave a meaningful gaze at Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin smiled. As soon as the door closed, Bai Luo Yin quickly ran away just like an arrow leaving the bowstring, he ran towards the bedroom. Gu Hai's reaction was slower than Bai Luo Yin's, when he just started to chase him, Bai Luo Yin already locked the room from inside. 436
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai clenched his teeth, while knocking on the door, "You wretch, come out, we're not done yet!" One voice can be heard faintly from inside the room, "The window is open, just climb eighteen floors if you can!" ***** Next chapter, what will happen to our Bai Luo Yin...? (๑✪ω✪๑) Will he survive Gu Hai's aggressiveness? (๑✪ω✪๑) Look forward to it~~

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gu Hai intentionally opened the door, and then closed it again with a really loud voice. When Bai Luo Yin heard that sound, he thought, is he going downstairs for real? It can't be, he's not stupid! Bai Luo Yin was still worried. He walked quietly towards the door, then glued his face onto the door, listening to any kind of sound from the outside. For the next five minutes, he couldn't hear any movement from outside. Bai Luo Yin frowned his eyebrows full of suspicions. He walked towards the window and lowered his head to take a look. He couldn't see anything. Heavy traffic on the street, and a mass of bobbing heads. Even if Gu Hai really climbed up, he would be seen. And yet he couldn't be seen. Five more minutes passed, Gu Hai's ringtone could be heard from outside the room. It made Bai Luo Yin's heart felt more anxious, no one is outside for real!
Is he really going down? Isn't he planning to ambush me from behind the door? To make sure, Bai Luo Yin sat again inside the room and waited for a while. Suddenly, an emergency alarm could be heard, when Bai Luo Yin heard it he felt anxious, seemed like it was from downstairs.
Oh no, it couldn't be that he fell down, right? Bai Luo Yin unable to endure anymore, he turned the door knob, then he stretched his head out to see the surrounding, no one was there. He was about to change his shoes, when suddenly his mobile phone rang, his heart tightened. It couldn't be that..... Gu Hai
called him to ask for help? Or is it.... a call from the hospital? Bai Luo Yin picked his phone up, then he saw Gu Hai's number on the screen.
No.... just now Gu Hai's phone was in the living room, how can he called me? 438
你丫上瘾了? ........
Damn, I fell into the trap! Just when he realized what's going on, both of his legs were already lifted from the ground, his waist was held tightly by a pair of big hands, his head was hanging upside down. He could see two long legs underneath the bath towel, an upper body wrapped in muscles and veins, and the big slippers that belongs to Gu Hai. Gu Hai even swayed him around playfully. Bai Luo Yin's height reached 180cm, so no one has ever been able to carry him on the shoulder like this. "Screw you!" Bai Luo Yin exerted his strength to punch Gu Hai's waist. Gu Hai laughed, "Screw me? That's not going to work today, hehehe...." After he said that, Gu Hai kicked the door open with his foot, then he used his knee to push the door close. He didn't put Bai Luo Yin down immediately, but he paced around the room in circles instead. One time he opened a bookcase to take a look at it, one time he put a doll that fell down on the ground back to its original place, one time he hummed a popular song while tidying the things beside the cupboard...... The whole process, regardless of whether he walked or squatted down, he did them all without putting Bai Luo Yin down. Gu Hai's intention was obvious, it was to let Bai Luo Yin know, in your husband's eyes, you're just like a small bird, it's better for you to obey
your husband, because your husband has enough skill to control you. "Gu Hai!" Bai Luo Yin's face reddened, he raised his voice and yelled at Gu Hai, "Put me down!" Gu Hai squeezed Bai Luo Yin's butt, and said: "Call me husband, then I will put you down." "If I had known earlier I won't come here with you." Bai Luo Yin gritted his teeth in anger, the feeling of being swaying around by someone else is really unpleasant! The feeling of the blood rushing to his head is really unpleasant! But the most difficult thing to endure is that, an 180cm guy like him is being lifted on the shoulder by another guy, what do you call this? Humiliation! It's a deep shame and humiliation! Bai Luo Yin didn't utter any word, he knew that once he called him 'husband', this guy underneath him would become livelier, so he just endured it. "Call me husband or not? If you do I will put you down." Bai Luo Yin closed his eyes, he pretended not to hear it.
439
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai turned his head around to look at Bai Luo Yin. He saw that Bai Luo Yin's face and neck had turned red beause he was hung upside down. His wife is his wife after all, why must he torture him like this? Gu Hai loosened his grip, he hasn't put Bai Luo Yin down onto the bed yet, when he felt a sharp pain on his lower body. Bai Luo Yin had no idea when did he stretch his hand out and punch Gu Hai's most fragile spot under his towel.
It's fucking hurt! Gu Hai closed both of his legs tightly, grimaced in pain, then tightened his grip again. Bai Luo Yin laughed out loud. Gu Hai threw him onto the bed, then he took this opportunity to press him down Bai Luo Yin's face was blushing, his eyes were brimming with tears, a faint smile appeared on his lips. Gu Hai was really angry, but he loved the expression on Bai Luo Yin's face very much. In the end, Gu Hai held Bai Luo Yin's face with anger mixed with impatience, then he suddenly lowered his head for a kiss. The pain from before was slowly spreading upwards, but Gu Hai no longer cared about that. His longing for this man's flavour made him crazy. Being tormented for a long time, he was already fired up since before. After both of their lips separated, Bai Luo Yin couldn't help but to tease Gu Hai, "Your underwear can be chosen as the strongest underwear in history. I punched it so hard, and yet you didn't roll on the floor. It's so remarkable!" Gu Hai put up a strong face, but he couldn't endure it anymore. His neck relaxed, and his head fell onto Bai Luo Yin's shoulder. "Really.. It hurts a lot....." Gu Hai said as he rub his lips against Bai Luo Yin's shoulders, "My legs also feels numb. Rub them for me...." Bai Luo Yin just replied him with three words: "Serves you right!" Gu Hai frowned his eyebrows, glared at Bai Luo Yin, "So you're this cruel?" "Who told you to trick me earlier!" Gu Hai massaged Bai Luo Yin's ears softly, and asked him as he massaged them, "Who tricked whom first? My brother was outside and you didn't tell me that. You deliberately made a fool of myself, right?" Bai Luo Yin was upset, "You are blaming me for that thing? I told you to put on a towel and come out, but you insisted on walking out naked." Gu Hai couldn't outspoke Bai Luo Yin, so he decided to use his actions. He tore Bai Luo Yin's pyjamas open, and lifted both of his legs up. His head went straight towards the floopy little fellow in between. 440
你丫上瘾了? "What are you doing?" Bai Luo Yin felt really anxious, he exerted his strength and tried to kick Gu Hai, his hand grabbed Gu Hai's hair, and tugging it. When he felt that his weakest spot was being wrapped by something warm and soft, he repeated in his mind, I'm finished... He never expected that Gu Hai would be willing to do this kind of thing for him. Two long legs spread onto two side. Both of his knees were wrapped by the other's palms. His lower legs went numb, he couldn't move them. Gu Hai put Xiao Yin Zi into his mouth. He put it in slowly until he reached the bottom, and he pulled away slowly as if he was savoring a delicious popsicles. The only difference is that the latter gets smaller while the former gets bigger in the mouth. Bai Luo Yin leaned his neck backwards. His chest moved up and down fiercely. He could see every Gu Hai's moves. A sense of shame spread to every nerve on his body. What followed was a pleasant sensation that made him quivered. His toes were curled up on the bed sheet. Blue veins suddenly appeared on his arm. His waist was slightly trembled following Gu Hai's movement. His forehead was already filled with beads of sweat. After a quick up and down, Gu Hai used his tongue to lick the pink soft tip. Bai Luo Yin's legs suddenly trembled. He couldn't refrain himself from letting out a soft groan. This soft groan aroused Gu Hai even more, it was as if he could hear Bai Luo Yin shouting, "Hubby, faster.... Hubby, it feels really good... Hubby, I can't take it any more...", underneath his body as he thrust into Bai Luo Yin in the near future. Just when he was about to reach orgasm, Bai Luo Yin's upper body already left the bed. He clung onto Gu Hai's neck tightly. His voice that was warning Gu Hai to move away suddenly changed. Bai Luo Yin's face was overwhelmed with pleasure. There was no time to move away, so he shot them all onto the side of Gu Hai's mouth. Gu Hai licked some of it with his tongue, and gave an extremely lewd smile. The nerves on Bai Luo Yin's legs were still pulsing irregularly. Upon seeing Gu Hai staring at himself, Bai Luo Yin threw a pillow at him. He went down from the bed and grabbed some tissues, then wiped the filth off Gu Hai's face with blushing face. That was the first time for Gu Hai to see Bai Luo Yin's bashful face like this. Gu Hai suddenly felt like he's going to explode because of Bai Luo Yin's cuteness. ..... Once the lights off, Bai Luo Yin started to talk first, "How did you get that injury on your waist?" 441
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin knew about this scar on Gu Hai's waist since before, but after he saw it clearly then he realized that this wound is more than 10cm long. Gu Hai smiled, he seemed like he cared about it yet didn't at the same time. "When I was a kid, I was cut by my brother." Bai Luo Yin was surprised, "Gu Yang?" "Yes." "Why did he do it?" Bai Luo Yin asked. Gu Hai's voice was deep and cold, "When we were kid we were fighting over a watermelon, and he didn't get it. So he cut my waist with the fruit knife." Bai Luo Yin broke out in a cold sweat, everyone in your family is really cruel. "So you think that giving you money is his duty? He's kind to you also because it's his duty?" Bai Luo Yin asked. Gu Hai let out a bitter smile, "I didn't force him. He did it of his own will." "Well, to put it in a fair word.." Bai Luo Yin stopped after he said half of what he's going to say. Gu Hai turned his head to look at Bai Luo Yin, waiting for him to finish his sentence. "Your brother is more handsome than you." Gu Hai's eyes suddenly became stern, his heart felt completely jealous. He was so jealous that he didn't realize he frowned his eyebrows, he was so jealous that his surrounding atmosphere felt terrible. Bai Luo Yin still insisted on teasing the person beside him, "I'm saying the truth, I don't know about other people but I really think that he's more handsome than you." Now Gu Hai felt like he wanted to wield a large knife, turned Gu Yang's face into the bottom of sieve. Bai Luo Yin patted Gu Hai's back, intentionally warned him, "People shouldn't act like a loser." Gu Hai suppressed the anger on his heart, then he told Bai Luo Yin something that once happened between him and his brother when they were a kid. "When we were small, me and my brother went to fly a kite together. Then the string snapped. We were chasing after the kite. My brother was laughing as he chased after it, I was crying as I chased after it." After ten seconds passed, Bai Luo Yin snorted. Bai Luo Yin asked as he laughing, "Actually what do you want to say to me?" 442
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai's face darkened, he replied Bai Luo Yin's question with another question, "From this trivial incident, can't you tell that our nature are completely different? I'm kind hearted, my brother is evil." Bai Luo Yin's laugh became even louder, "No, I just want to ask you, that fallen kite, you could just go and pick it up! What were you crying for? Aren't you a little bit silly?.... Hahaha." Gu Hai, "....."

Chapter 103: The Ambassador of Shamelessness. Hello everyone~ I've been procrastinating these past few days lol I feel like its been a long time since I last updated, so pls forgive me XD I've read some of the next chapters and it's all about Meng Jian Zhi orz I feel sooo lazy honestly I just want to translate Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin's lovey dovey part all the time T^T Oh well anyway.. nothing much to say about this chapter. It's just.... sweetness ( ՞ټ՞ ) Enjoy~ ヾ( 〃∇〃)ﾂ
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the middle of the night, Gu Hai woke up. Bai Luo Yin slept with his back facing Gu Hai. He slept very soundly. Such a quiet night like this, such a rare night like this, how can he just sleep? It would be a waste...... Gu Hai trailed his hand along Bai Luo Yin's smooth back until he arrived at his shoulder, then he pulled Bai Luo Yin's body closer to him, made him laid on his back. He pinched this, he pressed that, then he used his big hands to move Bai Luo Yin that was laying on his back became laid sideways, facing him. A handsome face that made him obsessed. Gu Hai gave Bai Luo Yin a peck on his thin lips. Bai Luo Yin seemed to be somewhat conscious, he let out a small groan once, then turned his body around, with his back facing Gu Hai again. Gu Hai pulled Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, he persistently turned him around again. Bai Luo Yin is used to sleeping facing the right side, while Gu Hai slept at his left side. So when Gu Hai stubbornly force Bai Luo Yin to sleep facing him, Bai Luo Yin definitely feels uncomfortable. Between his half-sleeping and half-awake state, Bai Luo Yin always try to find the comfortable position for him, but no matter what he couldn't find it. It was like when he just felt comfortable, a pair of big hands suddenly ruined it. After he turned around again and again, Bai Luo Yin finally woke up. "What are you doing?" Gu Hai sealed his lips. Bai Luo Yin was really sleepy, he has no mood for those kind of thing! He pushed Gu Hai away, turned his body and continued his sleep. 444
你丫上瘾了? For the entire night, Gu Hai treated Bai Luo Yin just like a pancake, incessantly turning him back and forth. Finally after being turned for so long, Bai Luo Yin collapsed. In the middle of the night, he tussled about with Gu Hai. After a while, even though his spirit was strong, his strength on the other hand was not a match for Gu Hai, so he was captured by Gu Hai again. The dawn sky was still dark, Bai Luo Yin woke up. No matter how much he wants to sleep, he couldn't. He just sat blankly on the bed for a while, then he turned his head to look at Gu Hai, he slept really soundly. Of course, did he ever sleep badly? He tossed him around many times, and yet he was the one who slept well. Bai Luo Yin really regretted saying "your brother is more handsome than you" to Gu Hai. As a result, for the entire night, Gu Hai kept tossing him around, changing tricks to deal with him. Every time he would always ask him, in the end who's more handsome. If Bai Luo Yin still answer Gu Yang, Gu Hai immediately grabbed Bai Luo Yin's member. He didn't let go, yet didn't wait, he just stroked it. He stroked it until Bai Luo Yin couldn't hold it anymore, then finally he said one sentence, "Gu Hai is more handsome". But it aroused Gu Hai even more. After he finished, Gu Hai still wants to continue for the second time, and the third time. Indeed, men who gets jealous easily cannot be provoked. Bai Luo Yin dragged his tired and sleepy body towards the bathroom. He peed, washed his face, and brushed his teeth... Then he saw two identical rinsing mugs arranged on top of the rack, with the photograph of him and Gu Hai on the mug. He had no idea when did Gu Hai take a candid picture of them. He also had no idea when did Gu Hai find someone to make something like this. Bai Luo Yin took one of the mug, then he stared at the mug, silently nagged "so childish" inside his heart. He held it in his hand, and yet he felt somewhat reluctant to use it. Clean and neat bath towels, complete sets of skin care products, all of them are new. He was thinking, am I ready to start a new life here? Bai Luo Yin hasn't prepared his mental yet. Gu Hai groped the pillow beside him out of habit, it was empty. He sat on the bed, then saw Bai Luo Yin's silhouette was moving around inside the bathroom. Gu Hai also got off from the bed, then squeezed himself into the bathroom. He shared the sink with Bai Luo Yin to wash his face and rinse his mouth, then he applied a cleansing lotion on Bai Luo Yin's face that was already washed. After that he peed, while asking Bai Luo Yin if he wanted to pee together..... Bai Luo Yin really admired Gu 445
Are you Addicted? Hai's energy, last night they tossed around so much, and now when he just woke up he was already brimming with vim and vigor. "I'm going home." Bai Luo Yin sat on the sofa and wearing his shoes. Gu Hai fiddled with his own phone beside him, casually replied, "I still have some things to do, just go back first, I will go find you at noon." "No need to find me, just stay with your brother. Isn't he going to return in two days?" Gu Hai groaned, "I really wish he could just return today." Bai Luo Yin finished wearing his shoes, and sat on the sofa for a while. He felt really tired. His body was aching. It was as if once he closed his eyes he would fall asleep immediately. But, in fact he totally couldn't. He moved sideways, and leaned his entire body on Gu Hai. His head rested on his shoulders. He treated Gu Hai as a soft cushion to lean on. "So sleepy..." In this instant, Gu Hai suddenly felt really blissful. Some things are precious because they are so hard to come by. Just like every night, Gu Hai always sleeps very lightly. He doesn't want to miss any moment of Bai Luo Yin hugging himself of his own accord. Even though he wasn't conscious, Gu Hai still feels very touched. He's waiting for the day when Bai Luo Yin could open his heart completely towards him, telling him that they are both good brothers for life and also the most intimate couple. Just before he went out of the house, Gu Hai reminded Bai Luo Yin, "Bring your mobile phone, if there's anything happen remember to call me." Bai Luo Yin nodded his head. "Even if there's nothing you can call me too," Gu Hai added again. Bai Luo Yin turned around, his face overflowed with happiness. After he exited the lift, not even two minutes passed, Bai Luo Yin received a text message. "Baby, I miss you so much." Bai Luo Yin coldly replied, "Enough, don't make me sick." After Bai Luo Yin rode the bus, he received another text message. "5000 yuan has been topped up to your account." Bai Luo Yin almost threw his cellphone outside, he broke in a cold sweat, what does
this guy want to do? Why did he suddenly top up my account with that much money? 446
你丫上瘾了?
All of it just for my number only, even if I were to use it until high school graduation it won't finished! Arriving at the alley of his home, he saw two of his neighbors was pointing their fingers at his house's entrance. "Who is that guy?" "I don't know, last night when I went out to do some shopping, I saw him stayed there and didn't move at all." "Is he a beggar?" "If he's a beggar he should've gone to subway station, or the platform bridge, why is he here?" As Bai Luo Yin passed those two neighbors, they smiled at him, then carried their shopping basket and walked away. Meng Jian Zhi still wore the same clothes just like yesterday, he hasn't wipe the mud and dirt off his clothes yet. He just laid on the ground, he put his hands inside his sleeves, his upper body was covered by a worn-out cotton padded jacket, his legs were curled up, his appearance looked very pitiful. "Why are you laying outside our house?" Meng Jian Zhi strenuously opened his eyes, weakly replied him, "To protect my son and my wife." Protect? Bai Luo Yin sneered in his mind, he stepped forward and gave a kick to Meng Jian Zhi, firmly said, "Just go wherever you want to protect, but dont stay here at our house." Meng Jian Zhi stood up, he glared at Bai Luo Yin. "Do you think I don't know that you hid my son and my wife? That man inside is your dad? Isn't he having an affair with my wife? Was it your father who gave that breakfast stall to my wife?" Just when Bai Luo Yin was about to kick Meng Jian Zhi, he immediately retreated. "Don't hit me, I sincerely want to repent my mistakes, I've wronged my wife and my son the most. Please ask them to come out, I have something I need to say to them. I beg you." "Cut it out! Get lost!" "I beg you, you don't need to call them to go out then. But please go inside and bring something for me to eat. I haven't ate since yesterday, if something happened to me because I'm too hungry, won't you have to bring me to the hospital?" Meng Jian Zhi gave a bitter expression. 447
Are you Addicted? "Who would bring you to the hospital? Why the hell should I bring you to the hospital?" Bai Luo Yin felt really upset in his heart, but upon seeing Meng Jian Zhi's pitiful appearance, he couldn't bear it. He walked towards the door quickly. Afraid that Meng Jian Zhi would take this chance to go into his house, he immediately locked the door from inside. He went into the kitchen, then found some steamed buns. At one glance he could see that Aunt Zou was the one who made it. Bai Luo Yin was unwilling to give such a delicious food to that good-for-nothing man. Meng Jian Zhi wolfed those steamed buns down, his weak expression gradually became better. Bai Luo Yin just silently watched him at one side for a while, he couldn't help but to say, "You still have strength right? You haven't even reach 40 yet, if you're not working you wont be able to eat." "At a place like Beijing, a person like me, who doesn't have any educational background and connection, where can I go to find work? Who want to hire me?" "Can't you do some heavy works? Is sweeping the street going to starve you to death?" "Heavy works?" Meng Jian Zhi snorted, he patted his weak arms, "Do you think I can do that?" "You're just lazy!" Meng Jian Zhi brushed the steamed bun's crumbs off his body, straightened his body and said, "I'm lazy? You just didn't see me when I was working hard! My body is weak now because of that! But how was the result? It was really hard for me to make a lot of money, and one woman followed me willingly, but once she heard that I have a wife, she was disappointed and left me! You say, whose fault was it? It was that whore Zhou Xiu Yun's fucking fault! If it wasn't because of her, would I become like this today?" The more he talked, the more agitated he felt. After he ate some steamed buns his energy came back, so he intentionally shouted towards the yard, "If it wasn't because of her, would I fell sick like this? Her life is good, she opened a small restaurant, she led a comfortable life, and abandoned me. When I went to her restaurant, she gave me a disappointed face! Zhou Xiu Yun, you're an evil bitch! You have husband and yet you still seduce other people's husband! Come outside!" This shout, made all of the neighbors came out. Everyone who walked on the street suddenly stopped to watch him. When Meng Jian Zhi saw a lot of people gathering around him, he sat on the ground, then began to cry, causing a scene.
448
你丫上瘾了? "Oh my! I can't live anymore. Let everyone judge who is right and who is wrong. My own wife every night would come to their house and sleep there! They didn't let me go inside and yet still beating me! I pity my six years old son! He didn't even know who is his real father! I'm the husband, every day I worked hard outside, but when I come home my wife went to another man, what can I do...... Huhu...." Everyone around him commented one after another. "Is it Bai Han Qi?" "If it wasn't him then who else! Who else is inside except him?" "Oh my, how can he do something like that?" "Yes, I see that Lao Bai isn't that kind of person!"

Chapter 104: What is Shameless? Hello everyone~ This chapter is finished so fast because I'm too angry with Meng Jian Zhi orz Also.... omg sooo many people asked me about what I'm going to do once I reach chapter 111. Well I'll just answer about it here.. I think I wont translate other novel for now, since I haven't find another story that I love as much as this one XD And I won't jump to book 2 immediately, because I think it will be confusing. So, I decided that I might help @saehan01 with her translation works~ Well honestly though, her translation is sooo amazing while mine is like, meh -_But yes, for now I think it will be like that~ Looking forward to it~
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bai Luo Yin was irritated, he grabbed Meng Jian Zhi's neck, then he pulled him until they walked outside of the crowd. Meng Jian Zhi cried out with pain, he tried to kick Bai Luo Yin's body. Those neighbors around them followed Bai Luo Yin while asking him, actually what happened? Bai Luo Yin didn't say anything, he just kept dragging Meng Jian Zhi away from the crowd. He gave some kicks to Meng Jian Zhi. Meng Jian Zhi vomited all of those steamed buns he just ate, while pointing his finger at Bai Luo Yin, "Can't you see? Everyone in that family is bullying me..... *cough* *cough*" The door suddenly opened, and Bai Han Qi's angry face appeared. Under everyone's gaze, Bai Han Qi walked towards Meng Jian Zhi, and calmly said, "If you have something to say just go into our house and say it." "I'm not going! You're just going to beat me once you close that door. I'm not going!" Bai Han Qi suddenly pulled Meng Jian Zhi up, "Today you have to go, even if you dont want to!" "You're bullying other people!" Meng Jian Zhi bawled again, then he grabbed one of the woman's clothes as he bawling, caused that woman almost fell down. He hid himself behind her. She immediately shouted, but Meng Jian Zhi didn't let her go. When Bai Han Qi saw that, he stopped his hand, he was afraid that Meng Jian Zhi would harm the innocent. Suddenly the door opened, Bai Luo Yin saw Aunt Zou appeared from the house, she hurriedly ran outside. "Aunt, just go inside quickly. If you're here he will get noisier." 450
你丫上瘾了? "Meng Jian Zhi, actually what do you want?" Aunt Zou yelled, "Do you want me and your son die?" The crowd around them suddenly exploded.... "Isn't that Mrs. Zhou? Why is she coming out from Lao Bai's house?" "Oh my... you see. She's really staying at that house, what can I say?" "Lao Bai, what a disgrace!" When Bai Luo Yin heard those words from the people around him, he felt that he just wanted to give Meng Jian Zhi a couple of kicks. It's okay if it would make him go to jail. He couldn't bear to see this bastard anymore! Meng Jian Zhi staggered out of the crowd, he walked towards Aunt Zou while sobbing, "Xiu Yun ah! How can you be this cruel to me? I came here to take both of you home! But how can you just ignore me like this? Even if I'm poor, I'm still your son's father!" Aunt Wang, their neighbor, couldn't see it anymore, she mumbled to herself, "That man is really pitiful, can't they be a bit kinder to him?" After she said that, she went to help Meng Jian Zhi stood up. Upon seeing Meng Jian Zhi stood up, Aunt Zou's lip trembled, "Meng Jian Zhi, if you're still a man then just go inside and talk to us clearly. If we're here all the neighbors could see us. We definitely won't hit you! But if you're a coward, then just stay outside, even if you're crying until you're dead, no one would pity you!" Meng Jian Zhi took a few deep breaths, he looked at such a big crowd behind his back, he suddenly felt that he caused enough trouble. He rubbed the spittle from the corner of his mouth, then he walked into Bai family's house with a limp, following Aunt Zou. "It's done it's done, please go back." That huge crowd walked away while talking between themselves, leaving only Bai Luo Yin and Bai Han Qi behind. "Dad, don't take those words they said to your heart." Bai Luo Yin patted Bai Han Qi's shoulder. Bai Han Qi went silent for a while, then said to Bai Luo Yin: "Yin zi, don't get involved with this matter, I know how to handle it. Go to your grandma's room quickly, she heard the noise from outside so she definitely will get worried. Just talk to her and persuade her not to go out, do you hear me?" Bai Luo Yin nodded his head, then he walked into the house calmly. When he saw that Grandma Bai was already outside, he moved quickly towards her, while fixing his gaze on Meng Jian Zhi. Bai Luo Yin hastily stepped forward to stop Grandma Bai. 451
Are you Addicted? "Sha... Sha..." Grandma Bai pointed at Meng Jian Zhi, her face was red, but she couldn't say any word. Bai Luo Yin held Grandma Bai and brought her back to her room while coaxing her softly, "That's someone who has been staying outside our house and begging for food. Everyone was trying to drive him away, so we had no choice but to call him to go inside and give him some food." "Pitiful people must have something for other people to hate." Upon hearing Grandma Bai's wise words, Bai Luo Yin's heart that was in a mess suddenly eased up. After persuading Grandma Bai to come back to her room, Bai Luo Yin came out again. They were in the middle of quarrels right now. "It's okay if you're together now, I don't have any objection. But you sacrificed me, so you must give me compensation." "Sacrificed you?" Aunt Zou glared at Meng Jian Zhi. Meng Jian Zhi rolled his eyes, then he said, "You ask me that? Aren't you my wife? And isn't that son my son too? Now he snatched both of you from me, do you expect that this matter would be settled just like this? You two became a couple, and then left me alone. You're eating and drinking well, and let me sleep on the street? Do you still have any conscience left in your heart?" "Meng Jian Zhi!" Aunt Zou slammed the desk, "Don't act so shameless!" "Who's being shameless? I'm asking you, whose house are you living right now? Who is being called 'dad' by our son?...." Meng Jian Zhi raised his voice. Aunt Zou couldn't bear it anymore, she pounded her chest nonstop, her face looked really agitated. "Now you realized that I'm your wife, now you realized that he's your son, but when you ran away with another woman, why didn't you think about us? You never came back for five years, you never send money to us, why didn't you mention anything about that?" "Woman?" Meng Jian Zhi sneered, "You still have face to mention that? If it wasn't because of you, I would still be together with Xiao Wu now. If it wasn't because of you, will she ran away with my money? I, Meng Jian Zhi, will say this clearly. Because of you, my woman ran away from me. Because of you, my son didn't recognize me. Now, I don't even have place to sleep....." When Bai Han Qi heard that, he thought that, this man is a trash from the start. No
matter how much we talk to him he wouldn't understand it. 452
你丫上瘾了? "Just say it clearly." Bai Han Qi opened his mouth to talk, "Actually what do you want?" Upon hearing that, Meng Jian Zhi's gaze suddenly became different. "I won't beat around the bush, I just want this much." Meng Jian Zhi spoke while making a V gesture with his hand. Aunt Zou's face turned livid in a flash, "You want 20 thousand yuan?" (around $3000) "20 thousand yuan?" Meng Jian Zhi sneered, "At this place like Beijing, you won't even be able to buy toothpick with 20 thousand yuan. Even the rental fee for your small restaurant must be more than 20 thousand yuan right? Listen to this clearly, what I meant was 200 thousand yuan." (around $30000) "200 thousand yuan?!" Aunt Zou was agitated, "Meng Jian Zhi, just keep dreaming!" Meng Jian Zhi's gaze changed, there was a hint of threat deep in his eyes. "Zhou Xiu Yun, with that small restaurant of yours, you can make several thousands profit easily right? Just 200 thousand and I won't disturb you again, it's not too much right? If I got the money, I won't come and harass you again. If you won't give me the money, I will spread the rumour to those people on the streets. I will let everyone know what kind of trash you, Zhou Xiu Yun, are. I won't let you open your shop anymore. I will make you feel too embarrassed to face other people in your entire life..... If you don't believe me then just try it." Once he finished his words, Aunt Zou suddenly ran onto Meng Jian Zhi. "Mr. Meng, let's just die together!" Bai Han Qi immediately stopped Aunt Zou, she looked deathly pale, her body trembled fiercely. "Dad, bring Aunt Zou back to her room first." Bai Luo Yin pushed Meng Jian Zhi until he fell underneath the jujube tree. His expression looked unusually calm. "This is my house. If you have something to say then just say it to me." Meng Jian Zhi's weak body leaned against the jujube tree's trunk, "If you're willing to replace her and give me the money, I have no objection." Bai Luo Yin kept quiet. "Speaking about your family, it's not that hard to give 200 thousand yuan right? I heard that your father is an engineer, just design few blueprints and he would be able to make that much money, no? But for me, it's going to save my life. Do you know that if I want to make that much money, how many bricks do I have to move? I'm afraid that I will die before that. If you give me that money, that would mean that you saved my
453
Are you Addicted? life. You save my life, do you know that? Is there anything more important than someone's life? Don't you have any morals?" ...... "When will you go back?" Gu Hai looked at Gu Yang. Gu Yang casually fiddled with the lighter in his hand, then he lightly replied, "I'm not sure. Before I came here I planned to finish it all in six or seven days. But the speed of the worker here is really slow.... I'm afraid that I will stay here for another week." "Finish them all quickly and then go back early after it's done." "Why are you chasing me away?" Gu Yang seemed to say that deliberately, "I remember that before, it was you who were always calling me to come back. This time, why do I feel like you're being hateful towards me?"
I'm really being hateful towards you. Who told you to act so handsome in front of my wife! "I just think that you're really tired because of the time differences." Gu Yang coldly smiled, "Xiao Hai, coming back this time, I found out that you've changed a lot. So you know how to care towards other people now?" "Can you not talk with that strange tone all the time?" Gu Yang let out a faint smile. He stared at GH, and asked, "Where did your little brother go?" Gu Hai didn't react at first. After he met with Gu Yang's eyes then he just realised that Gu Yang meant Bai Luo Yin. "Why are you asking about him?" "I'm curious." These two words pierced Gu Hai's ears.

Chapter 105: Thinking of a Method to Punish Evil People. SURPRISE~ another chapter for you guys~ ( ՞ټ՞ ) Whew, I'm so productive lately XD But omg I'm sooo sick with translating all these stuffs about Meng Jian Zhi. I wish I could just hurry up and continue to Papa Bai's wedding (๑✪ω✪๑) But... we have to give lesson to Meng Jian Zhi first (* ᴗ *)و Also, why is some of you asking me to translate "make it right the series" or "sotus the series"? I dont even know they have novels? And it's not like I understand Thai language, I cant read nor speak it, so please dont ask me anymore about that, thank you~
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Just go away." Meng Jian Zhi didn't expect that he wasted a lot of time and efforts just to get those three words from Bai Luo Yin. "What? You're asking me to go? I'll tell you this, if you irritated me, I will drag all of you together down with me." Bai Luo Yin was unusually calm, "I will wait for you, that is if you're really capable to do it." Bai Luo Yin's calmness aroused Meng Jian Zhi's suspicion and restlessness. Why the
hell isn't he getting anxious? I've caused so much trouble outside his house, isn't he feeling agitated? Why does he look like he has a well-thought-out plan? He isn't even 20 years old yet, he's just a little boy and thats all, what kind of harm can he do to me? "Call your dad to come out! I wont speak with you anymore, you're not mature enough." Bai Luo Yin stopped Meng Jian Zhi, his tone was cold and stiff, "Even if you ask him to go out, he will still say those three words." "You.... you...." Meng Jian Zhi gritted his teeth, his expression was fierce, "Don't think that I won't dare to do it!" "I didn't think that you won't dare. Now excuse me, could you please go away quickly? I can put up small posters everywhere, about you defaming my father and my aunt!" "I'm telling you, dont think that I won't dare to offend you just because of some people from public security bureau. I'm not breaking the laws!"
455
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin sneered, "I didn't say I will call public security bureau, I also didn't say that you're breaking any laws." Meng Jian Zhi was flustered, he immediately shouted and asked Bai Han Qi to come out again. A layer of ice covered Bai Luo Yin's eyes, he just gave two words to Meng Jian Zhi. "Get lost!" Meng Jian Zhi stayed still as if he didn't hear it. Bai Luo Yin immediately walked towards the dog cage, he released A Lang that had barked nonstop since before, he rubbed its head and said, "Son, I've been troubling you these two days. Do you see that person? Everytime you see that person appeared at our house, just go and bite him." Meng Jian Zhi still insisted on walking into the house. But when he saw a Tibetan Mastiff dashed towards him, he suddenly turned pale with fright, and ran outside in a hurry. After that Bai Luo Yin tamed A Lang again at the entrance, and then he closed the door. After he returned to the room, Bai Luo Yin[1] quickly turned on the computer, and searched for some popular forum website, planning to post there. He started with a title "Leaving his wife behind, abandoning his son, while putting the blame on his victims. Look at this top-notch man putting on a shameless act". but he thought that it's not provocative enough. This kind of family quarrels, this kind of society trash is too many, it wont be easy to attract other people. So, he changed the title to "Challenging your patience to your limit, if someone can watch this for one full minute, I will cut my own dick." [2] Well, to punish this scum thoroughly, Bai Luo Yin can only sacrifice his Xiao Yin Zi. Bai Luo Yin read some lead stories from newspaper front page to study the writing skill and how to narrate a story. He learned them all by himself in a short time. What kind of writing style is it? His writing is close to full marks, even if he just wrote an essay casually, it would be able to get into newspaper easily. Dont look at how quiet he usually is, if he wants to write something provocative, he definitely is the expert! If he doesn't have any ability, how can he had such a crown prince like Gu Hai under his control!
Since you already threw your own morals away, then I will let you taste your own medicine. Soon enough, this post attacted many people's reaction, the click through rate exceeded 10 thousand clicks, the replies passed one hundred. Some people expressed their anger, but some people wasn't quite convinced. Some people thought that Meng 456
你丫上瘾了? Jian Zhi is a bastard, some people thought that a scum like Meng Jian Zhi is an epitome of society's abnormal development, but there are some people who harbor suspicions that the writer just wanted to hype the news. Bai Luo Yin called Yang Meng, "Help me to comment at my thread." Yang Meng was puzzled, "Bai Luo Yin, didn't you hate visiting a forum website the most?" "It doesn't matter, just help me." Yang Meng was really curious at Bai Luo Yin's thread. Once he saw it, his chest was filled with rage. He couldn't bear to watch on his own, so he pulled his father to come and watch together with him. What kind of man his father is? He was a famous writer when he was young, how can he stand such a provoking language like that? His small body trembled in front of the computer, his fingers quivered, "Son, step aside. Dad will help you to post a comment!" Yang Meng suddenly remembered one person, You Qi. "Why are you suddenly calling me of your own accord?" It seemed like You Qi was in a good mood. Yang Meng laughed full of confidence, "It's because I know you're the best at cursing other people!" "Huh?" "Finally the moment to show off your talent has arrived! Brother, put your literary talent and your potential to good use! " When he heard that Bai Luo Yin wrote a thread, he immediately take a look on it. Once he saw it he was really agitated! My foul mouth really is made for this kind of person! He registered several fake accounts right away, every account would write few pages of curses, without repeating the same words. Not only that, You Qi also started to curse at his own blog. You Qi's blog was already popular since the beginning, just like a celebrity. Once he posted a photo, that photo could be stolen by an advertising company. It proves that his influence couldn't be underestimated. Soon enough, You Qi's fans caused an uproar. They keep reposting and giving comments, it keeps repeating. The more he cursed the more excited he gets. You Qi typed on his keyboards very fast. His cellphone beside him rang, You Qi picked it up with one hand while his other hand was still typing on his keyboard. "You Qi, do you still remember me? It's Dong Na." "Ng." 457
Are you Addicted? "That time I sent 12 rolls tissue to you." "I don't have any time to call you." You Qi was going to hung up the call when suddenly a shout can be heard from the other side of the phone, "Don't hung up yet! I'm telling you this, I'm a forum moderator at XX forum website." You Qi finally placed his phone on his ear, "Don't you want this thread to appear on the front page?" You Qi's hand that was typing suddenly stopped, he casually replied with an 'ng'. "Oh my God! I will pin that thread to the front page of the forum right now for you!" Nearly three hours later, the click through rate exceeded a million, the replies reached more than two thousands. Bai Luo Yin was stunned, he didn't expect that the reaction would be this huge. This is the first time he felt so excited because people paid close attention to his thread. When he saw that the click through rate and the replies increased at full speed, Bai Luo Yin was fired up, it was as if he saw Meng Jian Zhi was being condemned in the middle of everyone, until he fell down to the ground and die. Gu Hai was eating with Gu Yang and some uncles. He kept sending a text message to Bai Luo Yin, but he didn't receive any reply. He was really worried, so he excused himself and went outside to make a call to Bai Luo Yin. "Yin zi." There was a cheerful reply from the other side, "Hey!" Gu Hai was dumbfounded, "You.... Are you Yin zi?" "If I'm not then who am I? Hahahaha...."
This voice indeed is Bai Luo Yin's voice, but there must be something wrong with his mood! Could it be that after not seeing me for a whole day, he felt restless, so just with this one phone call from me he felt too happy, and he wasn't being himself? "What are you doing? I sent you text messages but why didn't you reply me?" "Huh?.. Oh... Hahaha..." Gu Hai let out an evil smile, "I called you once and you're this happy?" "Yes, I'm really happy! Tonight don't come back here!" Gu Hai, "...." 458
你丫上瘾了? "If you dont have anything else to say, okay then. I'll hung up now. Tut tut tut...."
After feeling troubled for a long time, it turns out that he wasn't happy because of your call, rather it's because you weren't there with him! At night, Gu Yang went to Gu Hai's place. He was bored, so he turned on Gu Hai's computer and browsed the internet. He's living abroad for a long time, so he didn't really visit Chinese website much. He saw Gu Hai's browser showed so many Chinese websites, so he casually opened some of them. Gu Hai sat at the other side, he was hesitating, should he call Bai Luo Yin again or not. Just now he thought about it again, he felt that Bai Luo Yin's mood isn't normal yet. "Tsk tsk... There are still so many conflicts in this society. This person called Meng Jian Zhi... I have no comment!" The more Gu Hai listened to that name, the more familiar he felt. He walked towards Gu Yang and said, "Show it to me." When Gu Hai saw that, his expression suddenly changed. There is accident indeed!
Otherwise with Bai Luo Yin's temperament, if he wasn't forced to such extent, would Bai Luo Yin be able to write such things that could arouse public's anger like this? "I should've known earlier that there must be something happened since he didn't reply my messages at all. He even still pretended to be happy, and didn't let me know on purpose...." Gu Hai muttered to himself while changing his shoes. Gu Yang stared at him blankly, "Where are you going?" "There is something, I'll go out for a bit." Gu Yang lightly replied, "Come back soon, and be careful on the street." The sound of the door slammed can be heard. Gu Yang frowned his eyebrows, and sighed, "This kid...." ....... Yang Meng and his father were fighting for the computer, two small bodies jostled one another in front of the computer. "Dad, let me curse one or two sentences." "I haven't finished with mine yet, wait for a while, good son." Suddenly a shout can be heard, "What are you two doing? Aren't you going to work tomorrow? Aren't you going to school tomorrow? Just let me do the cleaning and go sleep quickly!" Papa Yang replied casually, "We're sleeping now, we're sleeping now." Yang Meng also gave a docile gaze towards Mama Yang. 459
Are you Addicted? Mama Yang suddenly kicked the door open and went out. The two cowards went closer, then whispering to each other, "Dad, I'm a little bit too excited, I can't sleep. I'm going to go to Yin zi's house." Mr. Yang swung Yang Meng's hand excitedly, then said, "Dad will support you. A man must be loyal to his friends. Just go. You don't need to come back tonight." "I'm afraid that Mom won't let me go." Papa Yang pounded Yang Meng's chest a few times, "Aren't you a man? What did I teach you when you were small? The most important thing is you have to be brave, if you're not taking advantage of your youth to do some reckless things, how will you gain your place in society later?" Yang Meng answered his question with another question, "Then can you be a master in your own house, let me go outside in front of Mom?" "That..... Can you just jump over the wall?" Yang Meng showed a worried expression, "The wall is too high, I can't climb it. If I were to take a stool and used it, mom will definitely found out." "It's okay. I will carry you on my shoulder." Late night, this father and son sneakily went outside. "Where are you going?" Mama Yang crossed her arms and stood at the doorway. Papa Yang and Yang Meng both answered in unison, "We're going to toilet." "Do you have to go to the toilet together?" Mama Yang glared at them fiercely. Yang Meng grabbed his father's arm and smiled, tried to coax his mother, "Isn't it to save time?" Mama Yang rolled her eyes, then walked back inside. "Just go quickly...." Papa Yang pushed Yang Meng, then both of them sneakily went inside the toilet. Under 1.7m wall, this father and son struggled persistently. "Dad, raise me higher, I still can't jump over the wall!" Mr. Yang was breathing heavily under Yang Meng, "I can't. Dad can't raise you higher anymore. Use your own strength." "One two three, one two three, one two three..."
460
你丫上瘾了? This father and son shouted the numbers in unison, but every time they shouted, they went down a bit, the more they shouted the lower their position was. Until finally Papa Yang's face touched the ground, both of Yang Meng's leg were still on his shoulder. "Dad, should we stop shouting? The more we shout, the more strength we wasted." Papa Yang rested for a while, then he continued to squat down again, adjusting his position, "Son, let's do it again!" Having no other option, Yang Meng stepped on his father again. "What are you two doing inside the toilet?" Mama Yang's steps sounds closer and closer. Once Papa Yang heard Mama Yang's voice, didn't know where did he get his strength from, he suddenly stood up, it made Yang Meng unstable, and he fell towards outside the wall. ****** Translator Note: [1] I think its supposed to be Bai Luo Yin here but in the original novel it's written Bai Han Qi. I decided to just change it to Bai Luo Yin. [2] It was written "哥自切JJ". I have to google what JJ is because honestly I'm not familiar with chinese slang and I found out that JJ here is a chinese slang from 鸡鸡 which means dick. Pls correct me if I'm wrong thanks! XD

Chapter 106: This time, he's completely done for. Hello everyone~ Wishing you guys a nice weekend with this new chapter~~ ♡♡♡ My mood is really good because finally we're almost saying goodbye to Meng Jian Zhi :3 But after this.... Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin's fight??? >.<
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meng Jian Zhi was still staying near Bai Luo Yin's home. He was walking around while pondering, actually what should I do right now? Do I have to keep doing this?
Supposed if I went to extremes and really made them angry, would it be impossible for me to get that 200 thousand yuan? But if I didn't do anything, not only that I don't have 200 thousand yuan, it would be easy for them too. I'm going to die anyway, why don't we die together? I don't believe that your energy is more than mine! Meng Jian Zhi thought about it again and again, he couldn't help but to walk back towards Bai Luo Yin's home. He hasn't even arrived yet, when suddenly the Tibetan Mastiff barked furiously at him.
I wont be able to go inside the house today, so I have to try every means to get some money, otherwise how would I carry my plan tomorrow? Rob someone? But at this time who would I rob? Woman wouldn't dare to go out this late night, and I wouldn't be able to rob a man. Just when he was thinking, one silhouette suddenly entered Meng Jian Zhi's view. Since it was dark, he didn't know whether it was a man or a woman, but looking at its small body, he might as well try to rob them. Yang Meng walked while rubbing his face, because of his fell earlier it made his left cheek swollen. That time even when he wanted to shout he didn't dare to. He just ran wildly all the way here. He kept cursing in his heart, why am I so unlucky? Suddenly, someone walked towards him. "Give me your money." Meng Jian Zhi shouted loudly. At first Yang Meng was frightened, but after he saw that the person in front of him has similiar body as him, with his crooked back, one leg shorter than the other, and his entire body emitted such an unpleasant smell..... he suddenly didn't feel scared anymore. 462
你丫上瘾了? When Meng Jian Zhi saw that Yang Meng didn't give any response, he took one step closer, angrily said: "Give me your money quickly!" Yang Meng mocked him, "You have such a small body and you still dare to rob me?" "Are you looking down at me? I'm telling you, this small body is more than sufficient to rob you." He took another step as he speaks. An unpleasant smell assaulted Yang Meng's nostrils. Yang Meng couldn't help but to cough twice, "You're a beggar and you're still thinking to change your profession? You have to have enough motivation to do better than this!" Meng Jian Zhi didn't feel like listening to Yang Meng, he ran towards Yang Meng with a large steps, Yang Meng didn't have enough time to avoid him, he felt as if he was attacked by a pile of poops, it was really stank. "Brother, uncle, grandpa, please stand up quickly, okay? I will give you money, is it okay?" Meng Jian Zhi still gripped Yang Meng firmly and didn't let him go, "Give it to me first." Yang Meng took 15 yuan out of his pocket, "I only have this much." (around $2) But, without suspicion Meng Jian Zhi just grabbed that money immediately and walked away. Yang Meng stood up from the ground, he went around and around in a circle to make the smell on his entire body go away. The smell hasn't completely gone, so when he entered Bai Luo Yin's house, A Lang suddenly pounced onto him. He couldn't help but to sigh, just look at how unlucky I am... "You were robbed by someone?" Yang Meng nodded his head, "Well it wasn't exactly like that, I gave my money of my own accord. He was really stank, but he grabbed me and won't let me go." Bai Luo Yin let out a bitter laugh, "That was Meng Jian Zhi." "Huh?" Yang Meng's mouth wide open, "That was Meng Jian Zhi?! If I had known earlier that he was that stupid fool, I would've just beat him! Fuck, I've wasted my 15 yuan for nothing." Bai Luo Yin didn't say anything. Yang Meng shouted again, "It can't be that he's going to use that money to print some posters right?" "No, he won't be able to print much with just 15 yuan. Besides, he has to eat."
463
Are you Addicted? Yang Meng sat on the bed and crossed his legs, he frowned his eyebrows and he was lost in his thoughts for a while. Suddenly he had this brilliant idea, he pulled Bai Luo Yin over and said, "I have an idea, but I don't know if it will be effective or not." "Say it." Yang Meng then whispered something to Bai Luo Yin. ....... Early morning on the next day, Meng Jian Zhi bought two steamed buns, forced himself to full his stomach. After that he went to the grocery store and bought a cheap loudspeaker, then he went back to the alley where Bai Luo Yin's house is. He built his emotion while waiting for the peak hour for people to go to work. Soon enough, gradually more and more people walked by, everyone were staring at Meng Jian Zhi with a confused gaze. There were three people sat not far from him, as if they knew that he's going to start a performance. Meng Jian Zhi lightly coughed twice, then he began to cry on his loudspeaker. "Someone snatched my wife from me, my son didn't recognize me, who in this world is more pitiful than me?! Zhou Xiu Yun you evil woman, you left me and go with some other man, you....." "Oh my god!" Suddenly a loud shout can be heard from his side, it frightened Meng Jian Zhi. He turned his head around, and he saw a man was sitting not far from him, he cried louder than him, he cried while punching the ground. "My wife ran away with another man, they even poisoned me until I got pustules all over my body, and when it festered you can even see my bones...... My own son together with his step father burned my own house! Who's more pitiful than me? Who's more pitiful than me?" Meng Jian Zhi was still being ignorant, why is he butting in on my business? Ignoring him, he continued using a louder voice, "Zhou Xiu Yun, you....." "Aaahhh....." One cry can be heard from the east side, interrupted Meng Jian Zhi's weeping sound. One person was crying while rolling on the ground. His crying got even louder, as if he doesn't want to live anymore. "Tell me, why do I have such a cruel fate like this? I finally had a girlfriend after 38 years, it wasn't easy to make her as my wife, but she was raped by someone, they even threw her into a sewage ditch....." 464
你丫上瘾了? "What are you talking about?" The man at the south began to talk, "My daughter was raped by her step father. Not only did he rape her, he killed her too, cut her body into pieces, put them inside a plastic bags, then piled them up outside our house! My heart.... It really hurts, so much that I just want to die!!" This man is more clever, he suddenly fell down to the ground, his whole body convulsed, then he passed out. The huge crowd surrounding them who has been watching them, suddenly clapped their hands, while cheering for those people. Some people even threw coins onto the ground. Meng Jian Zhi stopped, because his experience is not pitiful enough, who would listen to him! Meng Jian Zhi saw that those three seemed like they used to cry at the funerals, he gritted his teeth and then walked away. Bai Luo Yin walked into the class, Gu Hai had been there since earlier. "Have you had breakfast yet?" Bai Luo Yin asked. Gu Hai just replied him coldly with an "ng". Bai Luo Yin found out that something was wrong with Gu Hai, but You Qi called him before he could ask Gu Hai. "What happened to that thing?" Bai Luo Yin patted You Qi's shoulder, "It's not a success yet, we still need to try harder, my comrade." You Qi let out a handsome smile, "You're the best at making a story, I just did a bit cursing!" "Thank you!" Bai Luo Yin replied casually. You Qi waved his hand, "Why are we still talking about these things?" Gu Hai just stared at those two who were sharing their achievement yesterday without any expression. He didn't ask anything, he seemed completely unconcerned. ....... After Meng Jian Zhi lost earlier, he went to collect some soft drink bottles and sold them for around 10 yuan. After that he went to a printing shop. "Help me to print something. I can't type, so I will say something, and you type it for me, can you?" The typist inside the shop replied him politely, "Of course I can." "My wife's name is Zhou Xiu Yun. She ran away with another man, that man's name is Bai Han Qi. They're living at...." 465
Are you Addicted? Meng Jian Zhi was in the middle of speaking, when the typist suddenly stopped. She turned her head around. She looked at Meng Jian Zhi, couldn't believe her eyes. "Are you Meng Jian Zhi?" Meng Jian Zhi was dumbfounded, "Why do you know my name?" The typist who was polite just now suddenly became angry, she lifted the stool and suddenly beat Meng Jian Zhi with it while yelling at him, "You still have face to come to my shop? This bastard! This scum! I, on behalf of many other internet users, shall eliminate you!!" Meng Jian Zhi tried to escape by rolling and crawling out of the printing shop. At the afternoon, it was unusually crowded, the alley was filled with so many news media's cars. "Auntie, hello. I'm a reporter from Beijing Evening News, I just want to ask something. Do you know this person called Zhou Xiu Yun?" "Xiao Zhou ah! How can we don't know her? All of us elderly people here always go to her restaurant to have breakfast, she's a good person!" "Then I'm asking you, you knew her for a long time, have you ever seen her husband coming here to see her? Or have you ever heard her husband sent some money to her for their living expenses?" "No! I knew Xiao Zhou for more than two years, I didn't even know that she had a husband! I found it difficult to ask her, she's raising her kid on her own, it must be hard for her." Fang Fei has been going around while dragging her TV station crews for the whole afternoon, finally when she caught the culprit, she was really excited. She pulled the arm of the crew who was in charge of filming, and said, "Quick, shoot him! He's over there!" Meng Jian Zhi saw that four or five person suddenly ran towards him, with all of their camera lenses aimed at him. He felt pleased. Well this way is also fine, I dont need to
use that cheap loudspeaker, I will put all of you on the television right now! Let's see if you still dare to go against me! He picked a brick fragments on the ground, then he began to write on a white wall. His writing was really eye catching, so explicit and vulgar. ..... After school, Bai Luo Yin tidied his schoolbag, then he naturally turned his head around. "Today you...." "My brother wants me to go home." Gu Hai interrupted Bai Luo Yin's words. 466
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin wanted to say something, but Gu Hai had carried his bag and walked out from the back door already. His back was stiff and cold. ****** Chapter 107: Dad, get married!

Chapter 107: Dad, Get Married! Hello everyone~ Finally Meng Jian Zhi saga is over! ヾ( 〃∇〃)ﾂ I'm so happy because I don't need to translate that person again (๑′ᴗ‵๑) But somehow, I kind of pitied him now (/-＼*) please live properly after this... (/-＼*) And so many people didn't understand why did Gu Hai get mad at Bai Luo Yin at previous chapter. Well this chapter will explain it all~ Enjoy, loves~ ♡
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Bai Luo Yin went home, he saw a huge crowd near his house. Everyone of them held something in their hands, they threw it towards the middle space while cursing. Some people in the inner circle even began to hit with their hands. Bai Luo Yin is tall, so it wasn't hard for him to see clearly what was actually happened in the middle of the crowd. One person laid on the ground, suffered the attack from everyone around him. Some people threw vegetables to him, some people threw raw eggs to him, some people threw gravels to him..... "If I didn't read today's evening paper, I wouldn't know there are this kind of person in this world!" "Right! How can this person is so rotten like this?" "I watched him on the TV, he made my food tastes bad!" "This kind of scum needs to be jailed immediately, so he won't be able to harm other people!" When Bai Luo Yin saw Uncle Liu from the next alley brought a newspaper in his hand, he softly asked, "Uncle Liu, can I take a look at your newspaper? Uncle Liu lowered his spectacles and raised his eyelids to look at Bai Luo Yin, then he gave the newspaper to him. Uncle Liu patted Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, "Boy, it was hard for you. When you come home later go and comfort your father, tell him not to take it to his heart. No need to argue with that person anymore. All of us knew what kind of person your father is...." "Yes!" Auntie Zhang went along with him, "That day I said some bad things about him, I think he must've heard that, when you go home later please help me to apologize to him." After Bai Luo Yin went inside his house, he could still hear shouts from the outside. 468
你丫上瘾了? "Dont come here in the future, I'll hit you once I see you here!" "If you dare to go to Xiao Zhou's restaurant again, I won't let you off!" "Scram! Get lost quickly!" The newspaper inside his hand was gripped so much, that it was crumpled so badly. The whole page on the front page was about this matter. It seemed that the editor snatched the manuscript that was supposed to be edited first, the picture attached was also a candid picture. Even TV station news, needs to be filtered one by one, so it's very rare for an issue to come out on the news at the very same day. Bai Luo Yin knew that the hype of a news depends on luck, but to make a news media to report this definitely needs a strong connection. There were a lot of elderly people, they hardly used internet, so their information must be either from newspaper or from television. Besides, these people are really close to Bai Han Qi, their opinion and attitude will influence Bai Han Qi's feelings. So Bai Luo Yin really needs supports from these media... Gu Yang was in the corner of the living room, ironing his trousers. From time to time he glanced sideways at Gu Hai. Gu Hai was watching a ball game on TV, while gripping his mobile phone firmly in his hand. He had maintained his stiff posture for a long time already. "*cough* *cough*..." Gu Yang lightly coughed a few times, then he coldly asked, "Why are you so focused when you're just watching an advertisement?" Gu Hai's gaze was focused on the TV screen. He picked up the remote, casually changed the channel. Gu Yang silently took his own phone, then he sent one text message to Gu Hai. Gu Hai was surprised, it was as if the moment that he had been waiting for has arrived. He immediately adjusted his position, raised his phone up, then opened the screen. His face had this unexplainable excitation, the contour on his face from his forehead to his jaw emitted such a delightful expression. Soon enough, he found out that it was just a blank message, the sender was Gu Yang. His face suddenly darkened, slowly he shifted his gaze towards the back. "Are you looking for trouble?" Gu Yang placed the trousers that he just ironed at the side, then carefully piled them. He swept his sharp gaze over Gu Hai's face. "I sent it by mistake."
469
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai wanted to shout, do you think it's easy for me to wait for a call? You sent a
wrong text to me, do you know just how much feelings I've wasted on you?! "Are you waiting for a call?" Gu Yang sat beside Gu Hai. Gu Hai threw his phone to the side, he deliberately put on an arrogant and frivolous expression, "Whose call am I waiting for? Do I wait for your call?!" "I dont know about that." Gu Hai stood up and went to the toilet. Because he waited the phone call for a long time, his bladder almost bursted. Gu Yang stared at Gu Hai's back, he raised the corner of his lips slightly. Only at the time when he look at his dear little brother, that a bit of warmth could appear on his face. Not long after Gu Hai entered the toilet, his phone rang. It was a text message. "The text message that you have been waiting for is here." Gu Hai wiped the waters on his hand, he looked at his phone beside Gu Yang. "I told you already, I'm not waiting for a text." Gu Yang saw that Gu Hai's eyes were overflowed with anxieties, he couldnt help but to sneer in his mind. Since you were small until now everything in your mind is always
written on your face, and you still want to hide the truth from me? "Then you dont need to see it." After he said that, he placed Gu Hai's phone to his other side. Gu Hai took a glance at Gu Yang, the latter was staring at him, as if he was waiting for Gu Hai to make fools of himself. Since they were small until now, Gu Yang had the most interest at figuring out where is the limit of Gu Hai's psychological barrier, then he would break through that barrier in one go. Gu Hai's heart skipped a beat, he picked up the TV remote and continued to change the channel. His facial expression stiffened, he refused to admit his defeat. Five minutes passed, Gu Hai's phone rang again from another text message. Gu Yang sat on the sofa leisurely while eating melon seeds, with his legs crossed. He was full of determination to win. Gu Hai's heart was like a sandbag, and those two text messages were like two punches aimed at him fiercely. Every minute felt like a training that exceeded his own ability, Gu Hai didn't notice that his own fingers tapped on the sofa armrest over and over again. He straightened his back as if it was an iron plate, his lips opened slightly..... All of those signs exposed his current feelings, restless with anxieties, out of his wits. 470
你丫上瘾了? This silence was soon interrupted by a ringtone from Gu Hai's phone. Gu Yang picked up the phone and looked at the screen. "Yin zi..... It seems like it's a phone call from your little brother. Do you want me help you to hung up this call?" Gu Hai was like a wild leopard dashing out from within a thick forest atop a mountain, he threw himself on top of Gu Yang's legs and snatched the phone from his hand. Seconds later, he anxiously paced back to his own bedroom and slam the door shut. This vivid and thorough bromance between these two people have unfolded brilliantly and reached an extreme emotional peak. Bai Luo Yin sent two text messages and Gu Hai didn't reply at all, so Bai Luo Yin immediately called him. He waited for so long for the call to connect. Once it was connected, no one said anything. Not even a "hello". The words Bai Luo Yin wanted to say seemed to stuck in his mouth. Both of them stayed silent for a long time. Gu Hai spoke first, his tone was cold and harsh. "What's wrong?" Bai Luo Yin stood underneath the jujube tree, looking at Ah Lang who is wagging his tail, and asked, "Did you find the reporters?" GH replied coldly, "It wasn't me." "Really?" "You didn't tell me about your problem. Why the hell should I call the reporters for you?" Gu Hai's words were harsh, "Aren't you very capable? You wrote that thread on your own, you got many people to comment on it, you had your own small group to create more buzz. Your masterpiece was everywhere. Of course the media would go and find you. What does that have to do with me?" Bai Luo Yin understood it now, this guy is upset. He is such a typical person with strong body like steel but soft heart like a beancurd.
Okay. Who made him your brother? Just let him win this time. "I didn't let you know because your identity is too special. I didn't want you to be dragged into this mess. I wanted you to stay low. I didn't want such a small issue like this brings negative effects on you." "I stay low? And you get all the exposure? What's the difference in our identities? Isn't your mother mine too? Isn't my father yours too?" Bai Luo Yin remained silent for a while, then he replied nonchalantly, "My mother is your aunt and my father is your uncle." 471
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai's heart felt like it was struck by something hard. "We haven't acknowledge our current identities, right?" Gu Hai was unable to respond. "I think I can solve this problem on my own." Gu Hai's voice from the other side of the phone sounded much less harsh, but a slight annoyance could still be heard. "I have never doubted your capability. I admit that sometimes, you are wiser and more far-sighted than me, you are more calm-minded than me, and you are more adaptable than me. But, you shouldn't hide your problem from me right? Even You Qi and Yang Meng were involved in your little plan. Why did you exclude me? Can't I help you review your thread? Can't I help you contact the forum moderator? Am I just a rich kid who can only depend on my father's power?" "Do you know why I didn't contact my cousin? It's because I respect you. I didn't want your efforts wasted just like that! If I really were to get involved with such method, this Meng Jian Zhi would have gone since long time ago. Why do I have to wait until now? Bai Luo Yin, your identity and mine has no differences. You can look for your mother or my father, anyone can solve this problem. Why didn't you go to them? Why do you feel that you can solve this problem by yourself, and yet you think that I will definitely solve it using this method?" "From the beginning until now, you've built the wall between us. Can we ever overcome this wall?" This time, it was Bai Luo Yin's turn to stay silent, until Gu Hai hung up the call. Bai Luo Yin came out from his bedroom, then he walked towards Bai Han Qi who was playing with Aunt Zou's son on the yard. "Dad." Bai Han Qi stood up, he looked at Bai Luo Yin quietly, feeling touched and gratified. "Son, you're already an adult, you can take care your own problem now. Dad is old already, I'm not as good as you." Bai Luo Yin let out a faint smile, "Dad, get married." Bai Han Qi suddenly fixed his gaze on Bai Luo Yin, his brain was as if it stopped functioning. "Get married." Bai Luo Yin said it again. "Son, I'm sorry. You've been living a hard life with me for more than ten years."
472
你丫上瘾了? "We are father and son, there's no need to apologize. I've become your burden for more than 10 years too. You should lead a brand new life." Bai Han Qi suddenly hugged Bai Luo Yin tightly. "Son, no matter what, Dad's most beloved person in this lifetime is you, no one else would be able to compare to you." Bai Luo Yin concealed the pain deep within his eyes, then patted Bai Han Qi's shoulder, slightly teased him, "Don't be sentimental. Actually, I'm the one who's sick of you. Once you get married, I will be free. I can do whatever I want to do. I will lead a brand new life too." One teardrop, quietly slid down from Bai Han Qi's eyes. ***** Can I complain that they cut too much scene on the series?

Chapter 108: Papa Bai's Wedding Day. Hello everyone~ Congratulations to Papa Bai~ ヾ( 〃∇〃)ﾂ This chapter is so sweet! I think that this wedding is quite similiar with GH-BLY's wedding. And the rooftop scene... I'm gonna cry now it was so sweet ;w; I hope I conveyed their sadness good enough (/-＼*) I'm sorry for so many notes in this chapter, but I'm afraid that it will be confusing to some people if I didn't explain them >.<
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After last night's call, Gu Hai said everything that he wanted to say from the bottom of his heart. He immediately had a really good sleep that night. In the morning, Gu Hai went downstairs with Gu Yang. Gu Yang went to get the car while Gu Hai waited for him at the entrance. Then, a bicycle came over and stopped right in front of Gu Hai. Gu Hai was surprised. He didn't think that Bai Luo Yin would take the initiative to look for him first after he scolded him so much last night. It seemed that his wifey cannot always be spoiled. Sometimes, a couple of scolding is beneficial for their emotional interaction. Gu Hai felt a bit proud of himself inside, but he didn't show it on his face. His imposing manner from yesterday still remained in his gaze at Bai Luo Yin. "Why did you come here? Don't you feel ashamed riding such a broken bicycle?" In other words, don't you always place us in two different strata? Today, I'll do what
you always do to me, make you feel hurt, and let you experience how it feels like to have your goodwill treated as ill intentions. Bai Luo Yin intentionally didn't argue with Gu Hai. He took out a bag of food, there were warm stuffed buns inside. He stretched them out towards Gu Hai without any expression. A sweet smell struck their noses! Gu Hai's eyes followed the bag and his mouth was wide open, but he pretended that he didn't look at it. "What is that?" Bai Luo Yin took out a bun and stuffed it in Gu Hai's mouth. "Steamed buns. I bought them from Aunt Zou just now. You haven't eaten these for a few days right?" 474
你丫上瘾了? "Why did you buy these for me?" Gu Hai said as he chewed his bun. The words he said did not match with his mouth's movement. "If you don't want to eat, then just give it to me." Bai Luo Yin was just about to keep the bag when Gu Hai reached his hand out to snatch them. Actually, Bai Luo Yin only wanted to tease Gu Hai. Upon seeing Gu Hai grabbing them on his own accord, Bai Luo Yin casually let him have the buns. One luxurious car slowly stopped in front of them Gu Yang lowered the car window and looked at Gu Hai. "Do you still need me to drive you to school?" Gu Hai was chewing, so it was inconvenient for him to speak. He immediately shook his head. Gu Yang shifted his gaze towards Bai Luo Yin. Bai Luo Yin gave him a smile. The car window slowly went up. Bai Luo Yin's smile pierced through the bulletproof car window. Many years later, Gu Yang will still remember that smile. It's just like a natural diamond. It looks dazzling on the surface, but it is solid and impenetrable inside. One week later, Gu Yang went back already. Bai Han Qi and Aunt Zou's wedding day is finally here. On Saturday, early in the morning, the alley of Bai Luo Yin's house was bustling with activities. There were two big red "喜"[1] word pasted at the doorway, while several colored lights hung on the locust tree at the entrance. There were so many red firecracker papers scattered on the ground... Bai Han Qi brought his son, his godson [2], and the people from his office department to go pick up his bride grandly. [3] When they arrived at Aunt Zou's house entrance, they were blocked by a group of aunties, also some of the waitress from Aunt Zou's restaurant. Aunt Zou was from a rural area, and those aunties are her families. Don't look at how gentle they usually are, now each one of them is fighting fiercely to make things difficult for the groom. "The red envelope[4] is too thin." Bai Han Qi squeezed himself through the crowd and headed towards inside, he finally saw that small opening at the door with great difficulty. Just when he was about to get inside, several aunties blocked him again. "Sing, sing!" 475
Are you Addicted? Bai Han Qi scratched his head. It’s been so long since the last time he listened to a song. He turned his head to Bai Luo Yin, only to find him putting on an I-want-to-help-but-Iam-unable-to-do-anything expression. "I will leave you, quietly.. Please wipe away the tears in your eyes......" [5] Everyone was dumbfounded, big brother, today is your wedding day, why are you
singing this kind of song? Bai Han Qi was embarrassed, "I only know this song!" Someone inside the house yelled again, "Let your son to sing then." For the sake of his father's lifelong happiness, Bai Luo Yin was forced to sing with a loud yet gentle voice in front of everyone. Supposed if the bridesmaid inside were to be replaced with Gu Hai, don't even say this one door, even 10 thick walls would be pushed away by Gu Hai. "You still won't let us go inside?" Bai Han Qi yelled anxiously, "The song is finished already, let me see my wife and bring her back with me." "No, you have to do 100 push up now." The groomsman shouted at the top of their voices, "Do you want to kill Lao Bai?" "If you can't do it, then find someone else to do it." This time, Bai Han Qi's adopted son joined. Gu Hai was dressed in a slim-fit Western style suit. He helped his father and did the push-ups within one minute, but it was as if the push-ups didn't affect him at all. "He really is strong!" Several woman's hearty laughters can be heard from inside the house. Bai Han Qi rubbed his forehead, then smirked, "Now, are you going to let us inside or not?" The bridesmaids were still unwilling to give up. They forced Bai Han Qi to read out a few pages of written pledge, they forced Bai Han Qi to guess some riddles, until finally they asked him this sharp question. "Who do you love most in your lifetime?" Bai Han Qi was dumbfounded, his groomsman beside him were urging him, "Answer it quickly! Say that you love your wife the most." The aunties inside the house were talking all at once, "Just answer the truth, no need to deceive us..." Bai Han Qi smiled fatuously, "My son."
476
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin's smile froze for a few seconds, then he punched Bai Han Qi's back, angrily said, "Dad, aren't you silly?" The groomsmen beside him were also complaining, "Lao Bai, what are you saying now at this time?" Bai Han Qi looked so honest and naive, "Didn't they ask me to tell the truth?" The aunties inside the house also didn't feel satisfied with his answer, the house was in an uproar, "How can this be okay? You only have your son in your eyes, if our Xiao Zhou get married with you, won't she suffer?" The door that was opened, suddenly closed again tightly, Bai Han Qi was so anxious that he sweated all over his body. Bai Luo Yin clenched his fist, he stepped forward and knocked on the door. "Mom, open the door. The person that my dad loves most in this world is you." Aunt Zou inside was startled, then suddenly she became restless. She was truly touched that tears glistened in her eyes. She ran barefoot towards the door, urging his sisters, "Quick.... Open the door quickly." The afternoon banquet was held in Dong Lai Shun [6] Restaurant. After that, they went back to the courtyard at the evening, only their close families and friends remained. Tens of people sat on the round tables, they were divided into 5 tables. They drank, they ate a big bowl of noodles and toasted with each other. Aunt Zou's son was coaxed by everyone else, they asked him to call Bai Han Qi "dad". This kid's small mouth was quite firm, but when he was given money, he immediately turned his head towards Bai Han Qi, then called him 'dad' with his piping voice. Bai Han Qi bursted into loud laughter, he pulled the child into his embrace and kissed him. Bai Luo Yin drank so much that he became drunk. He was walking unsteadily, then he kicked the stool that Yang Meng and You Qi sat, angrily said, "Have you givne the gift money already?" You Qi and Yang Meng glanced at each other, they just laughed. "You haven't give any money and you still dare to eat here!" After Bai Luo Yin finished scolding them, he turned his body around, and walked towards Grandma Bai and Grandpa Bai to crack a joke with them. Both of them wore a Tang suit and their faces were flushed red. Grandpa Bai even took out his Erhu [7] and played it. Joyous sounds lingered on the alley for a long time. Gu Hai went out to park his car, and when he came back, he saw that Bai Luo Yin was standing near Bai Han Qi's bedroom windowsill. He held on to the windowsill, while glancing inside. It was unusually lively, a group of men were teasing the newlyweds on their wedding night. They shouted and laughed over and over again. 477
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai stood beside him. He was looking at Bai Luo Yin quietly, at his moist face, and his raised lips. He didn't know whether Bai Luo Yin was crying or laughing. This expression of Bai Luo Yin, in Gu Hai's eyes, was extremely lovely. ..... "Uncle, I'll bring Yin Zi back to my place." Gu Hai smiled winsomely at Bai Han Qi. "It's so late already, just stay here, I've prepared a room for you." "We're going to ruin your good thing later!" Gu Hai laughed, then helped Bai Luo Yin to get on the car. After they exited the lift, Bai Luo Yin leaned on Gu Hai's back, and said that he wanted to go to the rooftop. Gu Hai didn't enter the elevator again, he went upstairs by the stairs instead, and carried Bai Luo Yin on his back. Teardrops suddenly fell from Bai Luo Yin's eyes. At first he was quiet, but his voice became louder and louder. By the time the night sky shrouded the top of their heads, he began to cry bitterly...... Bai Luo Yin's tears flowed from his cheek, to his jaw, until finally it fell onto Gu Hai's neck. Because he had never seen Bai Luo Yin's feeling went beyond control like this before, Gu Hai felt his heart was torn to shreds as he watched Bai Luo Yin. Gu Hai pulled Bai Luo Yin into his embrace, he caressed his head gently and softly, coaxing him, "Yin Zi, don't cry. You dad is still your dad. No matter how many times he get married, he will still love you the most." As someone who had been through the same experience, Gu Hai really understand why Bai Luo Yin is feeling sad. "There's no one who will cook such an awful food for me again." Gu Hai looked at Bai Luo Yin, he didn't know whether he should laugh or cry instead, "Do you still want to eat his food?" "There's no one who will drop my underpants and clothes into the sewer again. No one will apply hemorrhoid ointment on my mouth again..." Gu Hai couldn’t utter a single word, "......" Bai Luo Yin laughed in his tears, then he laid himself on the ice-cold cement ground. Gu Hai helped Bai Luo Yin to get up, then pulled him into his warm embrace again. He wiped the tears on Bai Luo Yin's face with full of love, and gently said, "I can cook for you, I guarantee that it will taste even worse than your dad's; I can wash your clothes, we can buy a lot of underpants, we can wash it then throw them away one by one..... I can promise you that, in this world, except your dad, no one would treat you better than I do." [8] 478
你丫上瘾了? The night sky gradually infiltrated Gu Hai's eyes. It was filled with determination and tenderness. Perhaps tomorrow morning, Bai Luo Yin would tell him that he didn't remember anything. But Gu Hai won't be able to forget this moment forever. At this night, on the rooftop, one guy was crying his heart out to him, saying that he wants to be loved. *** Translator Note: [1] two '喜' : means double happiness, usually for weddings ceremony.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline Proofreader: Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After Bai Han Qi got married, negotiations happened between Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin. During the chemistry class, Bai Luo Yin was laying on his desk earnestly, when suddenly he heard his phone vibrating inside his schoolbag. He opened his phone to take a look, it was a message sent by Gu Hai. He suddenly felt gloomy.
We're not even more than 20 cm away, and you're still sending a message to me, aren't you just wasting your money? "Baby, let's discuss about this. Are you going to keep living at your house or do you want to move in to my place?" Bai Luo Yin lifted his eyelid to glance at the chemistry teacher, then he secretly replied Gu Hai with one sentence. "I'll continue to live at my place." Gu Hai raised his phone to look at it, then he frowned. "Your dad is married, you've grown up and no longer a child already, isn't it no good if you keep staying at your home?" "I don't want to part with my grandpa, grandma, and A Lang." Gu Hai clenched his fist, his bones made a cracking sound. "You can go home at weekend, just think that you're living at the school dorm, my place is even closer to school." Bai Luo Yin typed on his phone lazily, "I'm not used to it." "Nevertheless, if you're going to college you have to stay at school dorm too, right? What if you have a chance to go overseas? In any case, you won't be able to see your
480
你丫上瘾了? family members much in about a year. You should move out as soon as possible, to avoid hard times in the future." "I won't move out." Gu Hai replied again, "You're already my wifey anyway, how can you keep staying at your parent's place?" After Bai Luo Yin looked at this message, his back suddenly straightened, and he immediately turned his head around to shot a sharp glance at Gu Hai, just like what Gu Hai had expected. Bai Luo Yin's thumb pressed the keyboard with a murderous look. "If you still dare to......" He hasn't finished his message yet, when suddenly he heard a demonic voice coming from the front. "Bai Luo Yin, Gu Hai, both of you come here." The chemistry teacher was angry, she narrowed her devilish eyes and stared at the two students who were whispering to each other. Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai stood up, and was about to walk, when the teacher shouted again. "Bring your phone here, too!" Both of them looked at each other, they had one kind of ominous presentiment. Gu Hai took his phone, and walked towards the front boldly. The two handsome guys calmly stood in front of the other students. "Read those messages that you just sent in front of everyone here." Gu Hai, Bai Luo Yin, "......." "Read!!" Gu Hai took out his phone, the first word that appeared before his eyes was "Baby". Bai Luo Yin's brain was filled with the word "wifey". "You're not going to read? If not then I will help you to read!" The chemistry teacher walked towards them with an overbearing manner. She snatched their phones forcefully, then furiously fiddled with their phones for a very long time. All of the students waited for her, and yet she didn't say anything. Both of their faces tautened, does this teacher feel that it was too much, so she couldn't
read them out loud? Then, the teacher asked with dark face, "How do you unlock this phone?" Bai Luo Yin, Gu Hai, "......" 481
Are you Addicted? They were embarrassed, not only did she confiscate their phone, they even have to read so many messages out loud in front of everyone. Although they changed the content, but two guys texting each other in class, that's not something to be proud of. After the class ended, both of them stood still for a long time at the stairs, one of them put their hands were in his pocket, strong and masculine, full of vitality; the other one stood tall and straight, his eyes looked sharp, just like an outstanding student in school. "I think, we have to steal our phones to get it back." Bai Luo Yin narrowed his eyes slightly, he rarely agreed with Gu Hai's idea. "Yes, with her temperament, if we go and ask for the phone of our own accord, it won't end well. We might as well steal it, we will get our phone back, and we can take this chance to blackmail her too. Since she confiscated our phones, she has to give it back right?" Everytime Gu Hai looked at Bai Luo Yin's evil smile, Gu Hai felt ticklish in his heart, he just want to nibble on Bai Luo Yin's mouth. Bai Luo Yin's gaze was unusually sharp at Gu Hai. Sensing danger, he immediately took one step back. "You say, how do we steal it?" Gu Hai asked. Bai Luo Yin put on a determined posture, "This is a bit complicated, we have to pick a lock." Gu Hai almost forgot that, Bai Luo Yin is the master at picking a lock. "However, I have to study that lock for a while." Monday afternoon, for the last two periods, the teachers were having a meeting. Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai secretly went out from the classroom, and went to the chemistry teacher's office. After making sure that no one was around, Bai Luo Yin crouched down beside the door lock, and studied the lock carefully. Gu Hai was in charge of watching the surroundings, in case someone came. If it was a student, he would immediately drove them away, but if it was a teacher, Gu Hai would give a signal to warn Bai Luo Yin to stop. Soon enough, Bai Luo Yin stood up, and took a deep breath. He walked towards Gu Hai. "Just an iron wire and a meal card will do." Once he got all the tools, Bai Luo Yin quickly began to work. Gu Hai kept a close watch on the surrounding sound. Bai Luo Yin's movement was really quick, not even one minute passed, he had opened the lock already. Moreover, the lock didn't seem to be damaged on the outside. Gu Hai was pondering, "As long as we have your hands, we will never starve to death." 482
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin kicked Gu Hai, "Quick go inside." This time it was Gu Hai's turn to go inside and find their phone, while Bai Luo Yin stayed outside. It was really quiet there, occasionally one or two silhouettes would appear on the staircase, but all of them walked upstairs. Bai Luo Yin walked back and forth in front of the office. He waited for a long time, he heard the sound of things turned upside down inside the office, and yet he didn't see Gu Hai coming out. Finally, a sound of whistle can be heard from inside. Bai Luo Yin stretched his head into the room, "Did you find it?" Gu Hai proudly showed the things in his hand, his gaze was evil. "I found two sanitary pads and one pantyliners." Bai Luo Yin, "......" Wait, wait, the good news hadn't even arrived, and yet they saw a familiar silhouette coming. Bai Luo Yin's expression changed, he shouted from far away, "Good afternoon, Teacher." Gu Hai's body trembled, he ran towards the window in a large strides, just then he found out that their phones were still on the windowsill. He quickly placed them inside his pocket, then he immediately jumped from the fifth floor to the third floor, he landed on top of the air conditioner's ventilating fan. Such a loud sound made the students, who were in the middle of a lesson, to become surprised, "Someone jumped from a building!" Gu Hai didn't stop, he immediately grabbed the guard railing on the second floor, then jumped down onto the ground. Those students who sat near the window stretched their necks out and looked below, they were stunned, where is he going? The chemistry teacher nodded her head towards Bai Luo Yin, then walked into her office. Just when she was about to pull her key out, she discovered that her door was opened. "Weird, I remember that I locked the door already!" The chemistry teacher muttered to herself while entering her office. Fortunately, before Gu Hai went out, he placed all her things back to its original place, so the teacher didn't see anything weird. 483
Are you Addicted? When Bai Luo Yin heard that there wasn't any sound from inside the office, he knew that Gu Hai had already jumped down from the window. Oh my god! Five floors, didn't know whether he's still alive or not! Bai Luo Yin ran towards the stairs, he hasn't reached there yet when he suddenly bumped into Gu Hai. "I got them already." Gu Hai's smile was charming and fascinating. Bai Luo Yin really admired Gu Hai's skill from the bottom of his heart, and Gu Hai showed his sincere appreciation towards Bai Luo Yin's intelligence. Both of them looked at each other, full of admiration, as if they wouldn't find anyone else better than each other under this sky. Suddenly, Bai Luo Yin's face expression changed "Oh no, I forgot to fix the lock..." Bai Luo Yin hurriedly turned back, but he hadn't even walked a few steps, when the chemistry teacher went out from her office. "Eh? Why is this lock not working?" Bai Luo Yin turned back again and wanted to escape. The chemical teacher suddenly understood everything, she shouted towards the two students who were running away. "Both of you, come back here!!" ...... The office door tightly closed, the two students stood facing the wall. The chemistry teacher took a stick that was as thick as a rolling pin and swayed it behind them. In no less than five minutes, she raised the stick up, preparing to hit their butts, and coldly said, "Stick up your butts more!" Gu Hai furrowed his eyebrows, replying disobediently, "Teacher, are you still doing physical punishment to high school students? "High school student?" She gritted her teeth, "You do realize that you're a high school student, but is a high school student actually capable of doing this kind of thing?" Gu Hai straightened his neck, he didn't say anything further. Getting hit by that stick? For him, it has no difference with a tickle. The teacher's face darkened, she glared at Gu Hai. Unwilling to give up? I'll hit you once
to make you give up then. After that, she swiftly hit Gu Hai's butt with the stick.
484
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai thought that a female teacher wouldn't have much strength, so he casually raised his butts. But once she hit him, he felt that the area under his waist went numb. Because the stick was too thick, it wasn't a stabbing kind of pain, it was more like a blunt pain instead. Besides, the pain slowly penetrated from the surface towards inside, she really used quite a lot of strength. "Now, it's your turn." The teacher used her stick to point at Bai Luo Yin. Gu Hai's expression suddenly changed, such a thick stick, can he endure it?
Even if he can endure it, I can't! Bai Luo Yin hadn't adjusted his position yet, when suddenly he saw Gu Hai going in front of him. "Teacher, just hit me. Everything was my idea, I was the one who forced Bai Luo Yin. Just look at his face, you can see with one look that he has a face of someone with top marks in studies and behavior. If you really hit him, just imagine how much loss our class will suffer!" The teacher snorted, "I taught him for two years already, even when you weren't here yet, and he wasn't that good! No need to show your brotherhood loyalty to me, I won't accept this behavior. You can't run away anymore." After she said that, she pulled Gu Hai away from Bai Luo Yin, but Gu Hai didn't move. He had a nasty look on his face. Bai Luo Yin suddenly pushed Gu Hai, "Step aside, this isn't the first time for me to take a beating."
This isn't your first time getting hit, but this is the first time for me to see you getting hit! Gu Hai continued to protect Bai Luo Yin with his hand, just like protecting his treasure, he stared at the chemistry teacher firmly, "Teacher, to tell you the truth, Bai Luo Yin is my little brother....." Bai Luo Yin was upset, suddenly he replied from behind, "Who is your little brother? I'm obviously your big brother!" Gu Hai gave a swift and fierce gaze at Bai Luo Yin, didn't I say that just to protect you?
Why are you being so honest! He turned his head towards the teacher and continued to beg for mercy. "My dad said that, if my little brother got hit, I will also be hit when I go home later. You see, if you hit him, he will hit me one more time. Or else, don't hit him. Just hit me alone...." The chemistry teacher frowned and thought about it for a while, she swayed the stick in her hand. 485
Are you Addicted? "What you say is reasonable." Gu Hai heaved a sigh. "Let's do this then, I won't hit you, I will hit him directly. Your father will hit you anyway. So I can also save my energy, and you will also get one less hit." **** Two chapters left!~

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Translator: Estreline & Sienna7455 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After the chemistry teacher spoke, she pulled Gu Hai with her hand, but Gu Hai pushed her instead. "You... you... you..." Her small eyes were perfectly round and glared at Gu Hai, flames of anger could be seen within her eyes, "You want to rebel against me? I'm your teacher!" "You could be anything you want, but you can't hit him!" The chemistry teacher was suddenly like a mad lion, charging onto Gu Hai violently, she raised up her stick and tried to hit Gu Hai. Gu Hai lifted his arm, easily grabbed the stick with his hand. The chemistry teacher wanted to take her stick back, but it didn't move at all, she was just like a spinning top toy, spinning around on the ground. Gu Hai merely used a little bit of his strength to get the stick and placed it in his underarm, a hint of dominance could be seen deep in his gaze. "I will give you two options, either you hit me, or you hit no one." The teacher fiercely stamped her high heels, her voice was shrill and ear-piercing. "Who do you ask to choose? Look properly, I'm your teacher! What kind of qualification do you have to speak about requirements with me? I want to hit him today, I'm going to hit him the way I want to, it's my right as a teacher!" "So, you're not going to choose? That's fine." Gu Hai's dark pupils abruptly felt heavy, he swung the stick swiftly just like a hurricane right before the teacher's eyes, towards the desk besides. BAM! The stick snapped into two pieces, the fragments were scattered on the ground, a long strip of mark also appeared on desk, ferociously zigzagging and creeping on top of the table. The chemistry teacher was dumbfounded. Gu Hai placed his hand on Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, then swaggered outside.
487
Are you Addicted? "Come back here!" The chemistry teacher stepped on her high heels and chased them outside, completely disregarding her appearance, she yelled loudly in the corridor, "Both of you are just like evils! So what if your marks are good? Even though your marks are good, your future would be no other than the scum of society." After walking out of the school building, Gu Hai's face was still dark. "Disgusting woman, I knew it since long ago that she's just an eyesore! And she even talk about society rules to me, I'm the fucking rule, so what?" "You..." Bai Luo Yin didn't know what to say. Gu Hai used his finger to poke Bai Luo Yin's nose, warning him: "Don't say that I didn't need to go that far! Don't say that there's nothing wrong with being hit! I don't want to hear you say those stupid nonsense! I'm telling you, this is serious, especially serious, there's nothing more serious than this!" Upon seeing this tiger-like, fierce and tough expression of Gu Hai, Bai Luo Yin suddenly laughed. "Actually I wanted to say, it was really satisfying." Gu Hai stared blankly, he turned his head towards Bai Luo Yin. He almost forgot that, the idea to steal their phones back was this guy's idea in the first place! Gu Hai grinned, then pinched Bai Luo Yin's cheeks, "Rascal." So, these two rascals no longer have any mood to attend class, they immediately jumped over the wall and walked out of school. They strolled on a food street and tried every food there. On the streets, they were each holding a stick of candied fruits, eating while mocking the Chemistry teacher, recalling the 'constipated' look she had after she got mad at them, imagining about her intrepid movements in bed...... When they were talking about an interesting part, both of them would ignore everyone's gaze and unbridledly stomping their foots on the street like crazy. The night sky gradually enveloped the entire Beijing. The bright flower shop at the street corner was playing an instrumental piano music, Salut d'Amour. Both of their legs were walking in tandem with the melody. Their tall and slender shadows gradually extended under the street lights. In a certain dark corner, Gu Hai abruptly pulled Bai Luo Yin, and kissed him while no one was around. Then, he turned his head around, licked the corner of Bai Luo Yin's lips, and said faintly, "So sweet."
Of course. The sugar bits were left all over the side of your mouth. How can it be not sweet? In the past over ten years of Gu Hai's life, there wasn't a moment like now where he felt such great indulgence. An ordinary conversation and a simple eye contact can give 488
你丫上瘾了? him an indescribable sense of comfort. Even if it's just a quiet walk on the street, just because the other person is him, this dark and gloomy road can instantly become brilliant and captivating. Perhaps, the first round of love in his life has just started. The gray bricks and red roof tiles gradually turned distant, they were replaced with reinforced concrete walls of high buildings and large mansions. The street became spacious and the pedestrians' pace turned hasty. Both of them were still walking around leisurely, their free time were spent looking at the traffic flow and pedestrians. Two beautiful women passed by. Bai Luo Yin whistled at them, while Gu Hai shouted "Beauty!" indecently. Both of them looked at each other, then pulled each other arms to quicken their steps and walk away from Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai, with a blushing face. Not long after that, another woman passed by in front of them. Gu Hai excitedly patted Bai Luo Yin's shoulder. "What do you think about her?" Bai Luo Yin looked at her, he almost hit an electric pole in front of him. This lady has a tough and stocky build, with a fierce look. She walked like a bulldozer, her movements are very big. "Why do you always like this type?" Bai Luo Yin couldn't comprehend at all. Gu Hai said, "Those girls who are too gentle and demure are not good enough to fuck with!" Bai Luo Yin gave a sideway glance at Gu Hai and didn't say a word. Gu Hai then placed his mouth close to Bai Luo Yin's ears, whispering, "Whoever I fuck won't be as good as fucking you." Bai Luo Yin suddenly got mad. He grabbed Gu Hai by his shirt collar, pushed him against a billboard and kicked him fiercely. Gu Hai's hands grabbed the edges of the board, he couldn't stop laughing. Both of them were fooling around with each other, until finally they arrived at Gu Hai's apartment. "After walking such a long way, I've digested all of those food I just ate." Gu Hai stopped. Deep down, Bai Luo Yin felt the same way. So, both of them walked together towards the convenience store beside the apartment. Gu Hai asked: "Is there anything you want to eat?" 489
Are you Addicted? Bai Luo Yin thought about it, "Buy me two packs of guoba [1]." "What flavor do you want?" "Chicken." Gu Hai walked inside, he didn't feel like going to the shelves to find them, so he immediately asked the female attendant beside him, "Give me two packs of pan fried meat flavoured dick" [2] She couldn't understand it, after three seconds, her entire face blushed. Gu Hai thought that she didn't hear it clearly, so he repeated in a loud voice. "I want two packs of pan fried meat flavoured dick." Bai Luo Yin covered his stomach with his hand, then ran outside the store. The shop owner laughed until her mouth twitched, "Young man, we really don't have it." Gu Hai then realized his mistake, he put a bold face and forced himself to go to the shelves and took two packs of guoba, he also randomly took some snacks, paid for them, and hurriedly went out. Bai Luo Yin laughed so much until he crouched on the ground. Gu Hai watch Bai Luo Yin resentfully, he didn't know where to put his face. "What's so funny?" "Gu Hai, I'm telling you, this is definitely karma, you never behave seriously from morning 'til night, so this time you have a slip of the tongue, huh? Hahaha......" Gu Hai might as well turn completely shameless, "I just want to eat dick, is it wrong? Then, I'll eat yours tonight." Both of them were still joking around inside the lift. This is one of Bai Luo Yin's bad habit. When he didn't smile, he didn't smile at all. But once he laughed, he wouldn't be able to stop. Once the lift opened, both of Bai Luo Yin's feet felt weak. Gu Hai barely wanted to take out his key, but he discovered that the door was already open. "Did you forget to lock the door?" Bai Luo Yin asked. Gu Hai's complexion changed, he immediately opened the door, and found out the the lights inside had been turned on. Bai Luo Yin also discovered something wrong, his smile gradually stopped, he followed Gu Hai inside. A hint of sweet fragrance wafted inside the room. The previously messy slippers that were casually lying around were all placed tidily in the shoe rack, the living room was 490
你丫上瘾了? neatly arranged by a person, everything was very clean and orderly, the tea table suddenly held a bouquet of fresh flowers. A silhouette came out from the bedroom. "You're home." Jiang Yuan smiled while looking at Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai. The temperature of their faces instantly dropped, their mouths were gaping almost at the same time. "Why are you here?" JIang Yuan paused, then uttered softly: "Your father is worried about both of you living here, so I especially come to visit." "How come you have this key?" Gu Hai asked again. "Oh, your father gave it to me, he had duplicated two sets of key for this apartment, one is for you, one is for him. He did it to make things convenient, supposed if one day you need something, he can visit you anytime." Gu Hai maintained a composed look, "Even if you wanted to come here, shouldn't you tell us first?" Jiang Yuan smiled apologetically, "I don't have your phone number, so I didn't know how to contact you. But you don't need to worry, I only tidy up your room a bit, I didn't touch any of your things." Gu Hai stopped talking, he directly went inside the bedroom to change his clothes. Without wasting any time, Jiang Yuan firmly pulled Bai Luo Yin's hand and tugged him to sit at the sofa. "Yin Zi, mom heard that your dad has married that woman." Bai Luo Yin went frigid, "So what?" Jiang Yuan looked at Bai Luo Yin anguishly, "How can you say that? That woman has a son, can her heart accept you? Your dad too, he just married and drive you off right away...." "I came here of my own will." Bai Luo Yin interrupted Jiang Yuan's words, "Can you stop defaming my father every time you see me? Do you think that by belittling my father, it would make you higher?" "Yin zi, you misunderstood mom. Mom cares about you so much, you're just 17 years old, you're still a kid, how can you're raised like this? Mom used to have a lot of difficulties, it was hard for me to raise and take care of you well. But Mom can do it now, can you go back with me? I will take this chance to care about you dearly, I will make it up for you." 491
Are you Addicted? Jiang Yuan said such a touching words, and yet Bai Luo Yin just replied her with two words. "Too late " **** Translator Note: [1] Guoba is one kind of chinese snacks. I dont really know how to explain it so I'll just insert a picture here XD This is a chickenflavoured guoba one.
[2] Gu Hai said "给我濥两袋锅肉味儿的鸡巴" which means give me two packs of pan fried meat flavoured dicks XD

When Gu Hai walked out from the bedroom, Jiang Yuan was still there talking. "Yin Zi, are you going to take a shower or not?" Usually, whether Bai Luo Yin wanted or not, he will refuse, but today, he hesitated for a while. On one hand is Gu Hai's pervert and indecent scorching stare, on the other hand is Jiang Yuan's troublesome chitchat. By comparison, he felt that the bathroom is a much safer place. When Jiang Yuan saw Bai Luo Yin standing up, a gentle smile immediately overflowed from her lips. "Both of you have such a good relationship. I feel very relieved." Inside the bedroom, Bai Luo Yin had finished searching for pajamas and had walked into the bathroom, yet Jiang Yuan was still speaking, "I really love seeing both of you being this friendly and close, the more I see, the happier I am." Gu Hai shut the door and snorted coldly, this will make you cry one day. There were two showers and one bathtub inside the bathroom, Gu Hai had already turned the hot water on, he'd also filled the bathtub. Just as it was about to overflow, Bai Luo Yin shut it off, and getting ready. Gu Hai's blazing gaze amusingly measured Bai Luo Yin's every single movement. Bai Luo Yin sensed a burst of tingling behind his back, particularly in the area below his waist, he felt as if there were two balls of fire burning him. He turned around and caught sight of a certain tall, big, and powerful man in the middle of washing his body, as if nothing had happened. More than three hundred muscles from top to bottom of his body were exceptionally eye-catching, during this moment of appreciation and admiration, Bai Luo Yin couldn't help but to sneak a glance or two. Contrary to expectation, Gu Hai appeared to be very normal, he didn't pay any attention to Bai Luo Yin's gaze at all.

Are you Addicted?
Am I just imagining things? Bai Luo Yin casted aside his uneasiness and worry, then quickly stripped himself naked. The water was very hot, creating a shroud of mist, winding around Bai Luo Yin's body, revealing circles of halo. Gu Hai threw a quick glance from the corner of his eyes, from the tiptoe and gradually climbing up, that perfectly straight long legs, every sway caused Gu Hai's small conscience to tremble; that small and narrow butt, even though it was small, yet it was perfectly round and compact, truly impressive; Gu Hai heard that every person with squishy butts have exceptional vigorous sexual urge. Moreover, that tall and straight back looks like a pipe of steel has penetrated through it, the outline from the neck to tailbone is stretched taut and smooth; it goes without saying, the facial features of that handsome face are strong and hearty, drop-dead gorgeous... Gu Hai couldn't help but to fantasize Bai Luo Yin wearing a military uniform, he'll definitely be exceptionally handsome and charming. If only he can wear the uniform,
that feeling, too damn overwhelming!! When he was thinking, Bai Luo Yin suddenly walked over, he unexpectedly swayed those long legs of his, approaching him. Gu Hai held his breath. Bai Luo Yin extended his hand towards Gu Hai's head, then a strange smile slowly erupted from the corner of his mouth. Gu Hai was instantly electrified by this smile, causing him to feel giddy. "You opened the cold water." Gu Hai, "..." Bai Luo Yin returned to his own place, silently cursing in his heart, no wonder there's
no mist every time he showered, it turns out that this moron bathed with cold water even during the winter, this idiot is really not afraid of death. Gu Hai revoked his deranged, crazy thinking, and only then that he finally felt the water temperature. Outside, the north wind was whistling, Gu Hai was rinsing his body inside the bathroom with cold water, but he can still be totally oblivious that the temperature of his body is still high. Bai Luo Yin's contributions cannot go unnoticed. "Do you want to take a soak in the bathtub?" Gu Hai asked. Bai Luo Yin shook his head, "No need, I've finished bathing." "Why do you go out so early, is it because you want to chat with your mother?" Bai Luo Yin turned off the power switch, and started to wipe his body with towel. "Who says I'm going out?" 494
你丫上瘾了? Gu Hai paused, "Not going out? Also not bathing? Then, what are you doing staying here?" "Watching you shower!" Bai Luo Yin let out a faint smirk. A smile seeped through Gu Hai's face, "Then, why don't you help me to test the water temperature of the bathtub?" Bai Luo Yin's leg that just recently lifted, was lowered down again. "Let me wear my clothes first."
Don't think that I don't know what's going on inside your dumb head, you want me to bend my waist and test the water with bare ass? Do you think that I am an ignorant girl who spent the whole day reading comic books? Such a good cheater! "I want you to do it now." Bai Luo Yin walked to the hanger beside, speaking leisurely, "If you are really that impatient, then just do it by yourself." Just as he finished speaking, a pair of clammy hands grabbed his waist. After that, his entire back also became wet. Gu Hai's chin rubbed against his shoulder, and Gu Hai's warm lips attacked one of his cheeks. "Get lost! I've wiped myself dry." "Hush..." Gu Hai placed his finger on Bai Luo Yin's lips, speaking softly: "Your mom is outside." "So what if she's outside?" Bai Luo Yin jabbed Gu Hai's abdomen with his elbow, "Fuck off!" Gu Hai didn't go away, instead he even glued himself closer to Bai Luo Yin. His hands that were on Bai Luo Yin's waist shifted to his neck, assuming a compelling posture, his voice was enticingly deep and low, "Bai Luo Yin, you are too clever, you always see through my little scheme, how will I survive? How will my little Hai survive? The smarter you are, the harder I get you, the more I want to fuck you. I really, really want it..." While speaking, Gu Hai used his little Hai below to rub lightly against Bai Luo Yin's butts, intentionally letting out obscene and heavy pants. Bai Luo Yin was already used to hearing this kind of words, his response wasn't as fierce as the beginning. He reached out to the back, and suddenly grasped Gu Hai's little monster, taming it a little, then inclined his head to look at Gu Hai. "Do you really want it?" Gu Hai poked Bai Luo Yin's shoulder with his chin. "Do you want it that you can't bear it anymore?" 495
Are you Addicted? Gu Hai nibbled on Bai Luo Yin's shoulder with his teeth, to show his impatience and 'itching to get on with it' mood. "Then, just eat those two packs of pan fried meat flavoured dicks!" Gu Hai, "...." ....... "What took you so long?" Jiang Yuan watched Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai while smiling. Gu Hai replied offhandedly, "Aren't we supposed to take lots of hot baths during the winter?" "That's true." Jiang Yuan beckoned the two boys, "Come, mom has peeled some fruit for you, come here and eat." Not knowing why, when both of them heard the word "mom", they suddenly felt a burst of goosebumps. "Forget it."Bai Luo Yin replied drily, "I'm going back to my room to do homework." "No need to worry, it's okay if you don't do those kind of work, this sort of examoriented education is irrational. Your brains are supposed to be fully rested and have some leisure time, yet they are forcing you to study. That's why even if they got into a top university, and learning for four years, the lowest rung of the society are still the lowest, the upper class society will never be able to withstand the impact of those student."
We're just looking for an excuse to drive you away, but look at your futile effort and enthusiasm... Gu Hai groaned coldly, then went inside his bedroom. Jiang Yuan stood up and tugged at Bai Luo Yin's hand, speaking gently: "Son, let mom help you to blow-dry your hair." "No need, wiping it is already fine." Bai Luo Yin hung the towel on the hanger beside, shaking his head to get rid of the falling hair. "How is that okay?" Jiang Yuan spoke while bringing the hair dryer over, beckoning Bai Luo Yin to sit down, "Dry it, if it's not dry, you may get a headache tomorrow morning." "I've been like this for more than ten years, but I've never gotten a headache!" Jiang Yuan seemed extremely wounded, her hand that was holding the hair dryer slumped, speaking pensively: "True, you've grown so much in a wink, a lot of bad habits had formed, it's very hard to change them." Gu Hai knew than Jiang Yuan wanted to express her affection again, so he walked in large strides and snatched the hair-dryer from Jiang Yuan's hand, "I'll dry his hair for him." 496
你丫上瘾了? Bai Luo Yin was still being stubborn, "I don't want to. I'm not used to it." "Let's dry your hair quickly, so we can sleep immediately." What he actually meant is, after we sleep, won't she go away? Thus, Gu Hai stood behind Bai Luo Yin while drying Bai Luo Yin's hair, while Jiang Huan took this chance to say the purpose of her visit. "Luoyin, Xiao Hai, both of you know each other now, your relationship is really good too. I think, if I really want to give both of you a better environment, you can consider about it right? I talked about this with your dad, we want to send you to go abroad for two years. The education quality overseas and here basically isn't the same. Other people's kids wanted to go abroad but they couldn't, since you have this opportunity, don't hold back anymore. As a son, there's no need to feel reluctant to be away from home, you should have an ambition, do you understand?" Bai Luo Yin went silent for a while, then he said: "I really enjoy my life now."
Me too... Gu Hai agreed with Bai Luo Yin in his heart. "That ordinary high school, for me, is an indispensable life experience." "It would be the same if you go to high school overseas, you will make a lot of new friends, you will have enriching and interesting experiences. Moreover, it would be more meaningful and worthy compared to here." "Your hair is already dry." Gu Hai rubbed Bai Luo Yin's hair. Bai Luo Yin stood up, and said to Jiang Yuan, "Don't waste your time on me anymore, I don't have a good habit of letting the parents to make decisions." Jiang Yuan wanted to say something, but Gu Hai turned off the lights in the living room already. "Our brains need relaxation and a good rest, so just do whatever you want." Jiang Yuan's body suddenly stiffened, then she slowly got up from the sofa, said to Gu Hai and Bai Luo Yin, "Then you can take a rest, I'm leaving first." Once the door closed, a fiendish look appeared on their faces. "Fucking annoying, fucking troublesome." "How did she get the key to this place? If she comes over everyday, do we even get to live?" Gu Hai thought about it calmly, he pointed at Bai Luo Yin and said, "Quick, change the lock." Thus, at 10 PM, both of them were still busy at the door.
497
Are you Addicted? Beads of sweat formed on Bai Luo Yin's forehead, this door lock was much more complicated compared to the lock at school. He took a deep breath, and said towards his assistant, Gu Hai, "I need a screwdriver." "Then, what should we do? Gu Hai asked for Bai Luo Yin's opinion, "Should we borrow one from the neighbor?" "It's so late already, it's not good to disturb other people, right?" Bai Luo Yin thought about it, "Otherwise, you can go downstairs to buy one." "Buy it downstairs?" Bai Luo Yin didn't even raise his head, "Yes, just buy it from the convenience store." Gu Hai's expression changed. When he saw that Gu Hai didn't move, he let out an evil smile, "Go to that convenience store where you wanted to buy dicks." Gu Hai pushed Bai Luo Yin against the door plank, he gritted his teeth, and said, "So, you're just going to talk about this endlessly?" Bai Luo Yin laughed again. Just because of this laugh, all of those unhappy things that had just happened suddenly flew far, far away.. **** Whew, finally we're finished!
