Quick Transmigration: After Fake Death, All the Protagonists I Flirted With Went Crazy

Chapter 111 The Scorching Sun (10 pages)

Gu Yao returned to his room, took out a small, square box from the bag, and opened it. The white-gold ring with thorn design shimmered under the lamp.

Gu Yao smiled slightly, closed the box, and put it into his drawer.

School days always seem to fly by; every day is just a repetition of yesterday's routine, with nothing new to offer.

Gu Yao's only source of amusement was probably teasing Yu Boning.

Ever since he was annoyed by Yu Boning's constant teasing last time, he blurted out that he liked boys.

Yu Boning's gaze towards him was suspicious.

Always tinged with shock, hesitation, and a shyness that made it difficult to know how to begin?

For several days in a row, Yu Boning avoided Gu Yao.

It's the kind of situation where if you see Gu Yao in a small supermarket, you'd turn around and go to another shelf—it's ridiculously over the top.

Gu Yao really couldn't understand this husky's thought process. At first, he thought Yu Boning just needed some mental preparation.

Now he felt that this idiot was probably imagining some outrageous plot in his head again.

What could he do?

I have no choice but to forgive him like an old father.

It's Friday already, and Gu Yao is already prepared to drag this idiot over for a serious talk about life if he continues like this next week.

Before he could even make a move, Yu Boning dragged him to the toilet during the last self-study period.

Gu Yao commented that two boys crammed into a toilet stall at school was really, really cramped.

Looking at Yu Boning, whose face was flushed red but who couldn't utter a single word, Gu Yao patted his shoulder and said earnestly, "Yu Boning, if you're constipated, I can sponsor you a bottle of laxatives for free."

Yu Boning, who was in a daze, was forced to exhale after being slapped by Gu Yao. Looking at his "fresh and tender" good brother in front of him, he still felt that he should tell him the truth.

Even if it might make him sad.

But he's not a jerk; he can't just know what someone is thinking and then casually string them along.

This is a despicable thing; the Yu family can't do it!

Yu Boning turned Gu Yao's shoulder and looked into those brown eyes that were so clear and innocent, making him feel especially guilty at that moment.

But what needs to be said still needs to be said.

Yu Boning looked very serious, as if he was about to deliver some earth-shattering, awe-inspiring research report.

What he said really shocked Gu Yao.

"Gu Yao, I've thought about it for a long time, but I still can't accept you. You're a good person, but please don't like me anymore."

Looking at the serious yet anxious Yu Boning, Gu Yao silently slapped the hand off his shoulder.

A kind smile appeared on his face. "Yu Boning, do you want to die? Which dog eye of yours saw that I like you?"

Yu Boning got excited when he heard Gu Yao's words and began his Sherlock Holmes-like "reasonable and well-founded" reasoning.

"Look, you said before that you had someone you liked and wanted to confess to him. I finally managed to pick out two girls who were somewhat related to you, but you kept denying it."

Then this Monday you suddenly told me about the guy you like. You know, the moment you said that, so many faces flashed through my mind, but I eliminated them one by one, until only myself remained.

Gentle and considerate, I always remember to bring you a snack when I go to the supermarket, isn't that thoughtful? Good-looking, that's exactly me.

And the way you look at me always carries a certain... how should I put it, it's a kind of indulgence. Isn't that the look you give someone you love?

After listening to Yu Boning's analysis, Gu Yao was completely baffled.

That's really well-reasoned and supported by evidence.

Looking at the proud Yu Boning in front of him, Gu Yao patted him on the shoulder and decided not to bother with this silly dog.

"Drink more Six Walnuts (a popular Chinese beverage)." It's good for your brain.

Relying on her foodie intuition, Yu Boning subconsciously replied, "That drink doesn't taste good either."

Gu Yao looked at Yu Boning with even more affection.

Look at what you've done to this child! Isn't this a low point in their intelligence? They really need to work on it.

Yu Boning looked at the solemn-faced person in front of him and fell silent.

I spoke too quickly.

It seems he really misunderstood.

Oh, Barbie Q is here.

Yu Boning gave an awkward yet polite smile. "Is it too late for me to take back what I just said?"

Gu Yao didn't say anything, but patted his shoulder again, pushed open the toilet stall, and exchanged a glance with the guy who was washing his hands.

They looked at each other in silence, an awkward silence hanging in the air.

The man pulled his hand out of the drying vent and waved it vigorously, saying, "I didn't hear anything."

It feels like there is no three hundred taels of silver here.

The water droplets on her hand, still wet from the light, shimmered under the swaying motion, flew in an arc, only to be stopped halfway by the mirror, before falling freely and leaving a trail of water.

Yu Boning also realized what was happening, turned around and left the toilet stall, grabbing Gu Yao's hand, "Gu Yao, let me explain."

The students washing their hands at the entrance were thinking: ?!

I was utterly shocked!

Gu Yao looked up, swallowing his bitterness.

This time, it's truly impossible to explain.

Show it off.

numb.

Yu Boning looked at the third person present, equally bewildered.

Looking at her own foot still inside the toilet stall, and then at the hand she was holding Gu Yao's, it was indeed quite misleading.

They look like a couple arguing...bullshit.

So he let it go and even explained.

We are not what you think.

An extra third person present said, "I understand, I didn't see anything, I'm just deaf and blind today."

Without giving Yu Boning a chance to argue further, he turned and left quickly.

At that walking speed, he's probably heading back to class to spread gossip.

Looking at the lifeless Gu Yao, Yu Boning forced a smile, "He should be alright, right?"

Gu Yao, feeling utterly exhausted and disillusioned: ...

Destroy it.

His eternal fame.

Today, everything is ruined by Yu Boning.

Yu Boning looked at Gu Yao, who seemed to have been drained of all his energy, and felt a little embarrassed.

Wanting to go up and apologize, Gu Yao turned around and made a "stop" gesture.

"Stay away from me, let me have some peace and quiet."

His tone was exceptionally fierce.

Yu Boning obediently stopped.

As Yu Boning watched Gu Yao's figure turn into the classroom, she realized something was wrong.

He and Gu Yao were in the same class and even sat at the same desk.

We're on the same path.

Why is he stopping?

That's really stupid.

Having figured things out, Yu Boning quickly walked back to the classroom.

She carefully withdrew from her seat, moving the chair further away, afraid of bumping into Gu Yao, who was in a low mood.

His survival instinct told him that he needed to stay away from Gu Yao at this moment.

Stay safe and sound.

From then on, rumors about Gu Yao and Yu Boning began to circulate.

It achieved an absurdly deep binding.
