Title: The male partner just wants to be a tool man* / 男配只想做工具人 Author: 林盎司 (Transmigrated into the Film Emperor’s Death-Seeking Fiance, The Film Emperor Asks for Divorce Every Day) Year: 2020 Status: Ongoing Tags: wearing book, entertainment, comedy *the title and names are MTL'd, so not an official translation :'D I must tell you, it's one of the funniest novels I've read for the last couple of months. It just started and has released only 20 chapters, but I died laughing from MC, he's such a dear. Summary: Shen Qingshu died unexpectedly, he had a great acting career and great prospects, but one thing he regretted the most - to die a virgin and never tasting the meat. Surprisingly when he woke up he saw a stud exiting bathroom and being asked if he was ready to do it his only answer was YES! He thought if this was his last day he will indulge, but waking up next day he realized that he seems to be wearing a book and the one next to him is a protagonist attack - Han Cheng, a wealthy heir to Han group. But he never panicked, since he is a cannon fodder, he will act as a tool man in his own way. But some time passes, they are still together and he wondered - why is protagonist not living? Storyline: Shen Qingshu's story in the novel is pretty melodramatic, he was switched at birth and grew up in a rural area, he also had a scum boyfriend who cheated constantly and because being heart-broken he chose one-night stand with a stranger. His family is not really complex, when Qingshu was taken back he was treated more like adopted son, because the one who occupied the nest, Qingyu, cried bitterly and softened up the parents for him to stay, unexplainably the poor parents left the world soon and the Shen pair left both sons at home. Qingyu is a classic green tea bitch constantly sowing discords with his seemingly good words. The story starts from that fateful night, when in morning SQS finds he wore a book, but decided to not closely follow, but not oppose being a tool man to promote relationship between gong and shou of this novel. The thing is the fate brought them soon together. At home he openly reveals QY's green tea-ness, it's actually quite fun how he words almost all phrases on green tea, but it is always fresh roast all the time :'D When MC comes back home in next few days he soon is sent on a blind date with one of his Qingyu's followers. By this time everyone thinks SQS isn't a good thing, always comes back like a dog to his scum boyfriend, braindeadly telling him to be obedient to this QY's friend, and maybe he can have a good life. QY's friend is also disdainful, but here is where fun starts, first of all SQS who received such a harsh and rude treatment started to act and because Han Cheng happened to be near he also brought him into the play and Han Cheng actually played along seemingly being very posessive boyfriend (I died when later this friend trie to find SQS so he would build a bridge to HC, but SQS said - how can that be, I've been entrapped in little black room all this time and barely appeased the man, how can I ask for you? while at the same time SQS was having fun typing a danmei novel). When the blid date failed he came back to already angry family (after all blind date was over but MC was somewhere, actually riding Han Cheng ). So they had a fight. But MC doesn't give a damn about these unfeeling parents who never cared about their own biological son. Since SQS has his own acting skills, he chose to wait for a draft that will come few months later and for this time he basically left home, leaving the green tea and his parents at home. He asked HC for help and they actually started cohabitating, while SQS also picked up a new fun - writing novels, first it's fun, next to earn money to live. It was funny when HC found the novel, he made fun of MC and asked to name kids Mary and Jack, since the protag's last name was SU, so they can become Mary Su and Jack Su xDDDDDD HC also has his fun, he's actually quite humorous and different from cold and indifferent MLs In chapters 19-20 they have dinner with friends, among which was Yan Jiayu, who tried to pry the corner for SQS always mentioning their close relationship with HC, but SQS attacked with purest White Moonlight act, while HC was almost uncapable of holding laughter. What I found great about this novel right away is MC and dialogues. They're always witty, I almost want to learn. When Yan Jiayu, HC's suitor comes back and MC acted like such a White Lotus, one of the dialogues was close to comething like this: - I love crabs they're my favorite, Han Cheng used to peel crabs for me, while I was abroad I haven't eaten crabs for several years. - That's really not being a favorite. If you love something you have to find a way to eat it, even if you break your arm. Basically no one can beat MC with words. :'D MC has a greatly strong personality, he doesn't give a shit about anything others might think of him and holds no sentiments with the Shen family, exposes Qingyu, QY's friend he called green tea dog. He and Han Cheng after that night actually kept this relationship close to freinds with benefits, but tbh acted like an old married couple almost right away, thus this novel with such a character creates a pretty light-hearted feeling. because this novel just started and it's far from ending, I won't take it upon myself to claim that it's a great novel. I can only admit that if it will continue with the same vigour and wittiness from now on till the end, it's goind to be a good novel indeed.

I am following this novel and indeed it is very funny. Especially both characters are sunny type with no trauma. Especially ml just a hardworking funny rich guy. And that novel lol No it won't be mpreg by author
I actually suspected it, I was not certain because I have no idea what tag is used when it comes to Chinese BL, secondly there was one part in novel info on jjwxc that if you google it, it gets you mpreg results. The only mpreg part of the entire novel is SQS's two cubs in the novels he's writing XD
CH. 21-22 Honestly, I died :'D The finish the dinner. YJY gives HC a present but HC non-chalantly gives it to SQS, they turn to the parking lot and suddenly approached by Qingyu and the tea licking dog Xu Qi (the blind date man). Qingyu of course tried to use his kind-hearted fake face but SQS played him around and said that while his parents froze his credit card you must give the brother money, you're so kind-hearted~ you won't let your brother starve to death. SO while grinding teeth SQY had to transfer a sum of money. HC also perked his interest, but SQS said it was not his business who HC was. SQS and HC didn't forget the possessive bf and suffocating with love shou act before leaving. Leaving two behind, at this time XQ and SQY finally find out that they were talking about different people all this time, while XQ meant HC while SQY was talking about SQS's campus bf Li Hui, so SQY decided to use it against SQS and called Li Hui, while he was sure that SQS was riding two boats he simply wanted to use Li Hui as a spear. On the other hand SQS and HC had a small talk about Yan Jiayu and why he's like that. SQS ia really curious only guessing that YJY did something he sould be sorry for, but HC stayed silent. WHile HC was thinking that YJY actually a two-timing bitch. They met a long time ago and YJY pretty naturally became part of their circle, but he was ambiguoug towards HC hanging him up, yet HC was resisting, once his brother Han Yu found them watching a movie and after YJY left they had a talk and HY shared a fact that YJY actually confessed his feelings not once to him. HC was shocked and embarrassed to be a spare tire in this situation, and as a face-loving person he stayed silent about this. His brother was happy about the outcome actually, he is fond of his brother and doesn't want to fight with him over another person and HC himself was shocked why YJY was two-timing like that, sowing discord between brothers was disgusting to him. He also later when talking the same evening with Han Yu about the dinner, Han Yu sent his brother a chat record. SO basically both brothers know what YJY is aiming for, but stay silent on this behavior. When SQS and HC drove back in the car HC was thinking about those things, while SQS was truly curious but couldn't do anything about it. He also thought he must explain YJY's character to protag later. The present from YJY was tossed aside. Anyway Li Hui the stupid dog was furiosly provoked to be a third wheel to SQS by Qingyu and pestered SQS for a meeting, to which SQS agreed to meet at 6 in the morning, but warmly fell asleep, the hell if he's going to meet, he wanted to punish the dog Li Hui. LH on the other hand waited for hour and a half to finally realize he was stood up. On the other hand SQS was sleeping sweetly before HC woke him up to have a breakfast. While Li Hui enraged by SQS's behavior demanded SQY to give him SQS's address. SO SQY went to Han Group, but HC who asked SQS what to do with his brother and got "Don't bother about him", asked front desk to tell him away, but SQY decided to stay in the waiting lounge. Surprisingly the same day and hour YJY came to Han Group and got the same answer from HC and was refused to go up to wait. Both stayed in the waiting area and SQY took this opportunity for conversation of a green tea set. On the other hand HC called SQS to come to his company, SQS refused since he had inspiration and had to finish the chapter, HC didn't wait and started to recite SQS's novel, while always made SQS super emberrassed and he agreed. At first SQS wanted to use HC's car, but HC asked him to get a taxi, memories when he let SQS drive were too traumatizing :'D Anyway SQS agree to come to Han Group guessing that it was related to YJY. Honestly, this novel is hella funny :'D And the two of them are just a new type of match, one is an ope trash-talking or acting where needed and also Han Cheng who is like - come to my company, I need your skills to drive these people away. It's funny how quicly HC became dependent :'D
Hahhaha . I find mc "transmigrated" family really annoying ..especially green tea ,he has to play his green tea set everywhere. So the shou p is Yan guy ??? The moonlight one of story? Edit : I got my answer . I don't remember but what role did ori Mc played in story btw ml and p shou ?
Same. Sure thing the original owner is described as this cheap person who fell in love with a scum and thus suffered, but has he ever received the love he needed in his family? Imagine finding out that your family is not yours (and the mother even switched children, so her child will live well), but the new family just when you arrive is all crying and hugging the adopted son instead of true son, just because that one is distressed and shoved them with a bunch of sweet words~ And later show their bias receiving the words of SQY as a holy truth and never actually asking SQS himself, then if you're so not happy, give him money and let him go, he's already an adult, will be happy without this thorny green tea soaked family of three. I love when SQS at first talked with SQY he told him to go to his cup and a teapot if he's gonna cry and brew his green tea :'DDDD Original owner was a dedicated promoter of dog-blood drama and relationship of gong and shou of the novel, that's according to MC and I haven't seen any details in what way he promoted it.
Ori Mc was even used by his family as a step to climb "upper" class . I really like mc instead of "reasoning"with green tea ,he will just go for some "life truth" on sqy I don't feel like ml could be part of dog blood story , he is such a cool one
CHAPTER 23 Right when SQS arrives he sees the tea set of YJY and SQY spreading the tea art. Ater confirming with the front desk that he's SQS they swiped the card for him, but those two shamelessly squeezed after him. SQS turned around and started dispelling the smell of old green tea - Brother, I will take you home, parents are worried. Same parents who degraded him and froze his card just because SQS blatantly claimed that Shen father is a nouveau riche. But ok. SQY plays this good brother and gets YJY in support that he should go home, he's also advising for his own good. But really where are they and where those two, SQS asked the front desk what they do if someone tresspasses their company and SQY in the end was dragged out by the security after SQS explained that although he's a brother, but SQY is here to pester Mr. Han and they should pay attention to this subject. The ride the elevator and actually SQS killed me forgetting there's a secong green tea package along, but whatever if SQY is resolved YJY can be too. The second round starts with small jabs: SQS: Are you doing something today? YJY: Came here to see Xiao Cheng, you? SQS: Of course to see him, if you can why can't I? YJY: I am his friend, I accompanied him through highschool and college for seven years. SQS: Oh~ that's an itch for seven years. YJY again insists that they've known each other for so long, then what SQS should be accounted for. SQS says that since you're just a friend you won't be able to hold on to the familiarity and become strangers. YJY: Jealous? SQS: I'm not a stranger to him, why should I be jealous? (well, yeah, he rides Han Cheng, so~) YJY: But I was with him for seven years. SQS There were other people around him for seven years, all classmate friends and college friends (God, SQS's jabs are onpoint). Anyway they arrive and secretary asks who he was, knwoing it's SQS she's escorted him to HC office. But what HC saw was not only SQS, but YJY who tagged along. Before he could say anything and YJY too, SQS started: I don't like him, see him out. Cooperating with SQS, HC asks YJY to go out. YJY is shocked asking if he wants to drive him out. SQS: Didn't you persuade me to go home, now I do the same. YJY: I did it for your own good. Your brother wants you to go home, your parents are worried about you. Is it wrong to persuade? SQS: Then I'm also for your own good. Don't your parents worry about you too? I do this for your own good. YJY: For my good? You obviously don't want me to meet Han Cheng. SQS: then are you also doing it just for me, I also say that you obviously don't want me to meet Xao Cheng~ YJY was enraged to death by SQS. While HC watched his own secretary giving SQS a thumbs up SQS: So you can go back. HC singing along: You (YJY) go back first. YJY: You're doing this to me because of him? HC: He (SQS) is in a bad mood, so let him. YJY: Am I not in a bad mood, why don't you let him let me. HC: That's why you should go home, so you don't see each other and your mood will get better. Anyway this wonderful battle ends here, YJY storms out after HC confirms that SQS is the one who stays and a short sweet moment between HC and SQS. (Tbh I love how they grill the green tea bit*es) One the other hand: SQS: How was I? HC: Awesome. SQS: You work, I'll write my novel and later you invite me to go eat together. HC: Good. (No really, they are an old married couple, their fighting ability is top-notch). YJY instead of going out completely went back, but to Han Yu's office, secretary there knows YJY so she refused him right away with excuse that Mr Han is busy. From Han Yu he only got - Have no time (well, both brothers know what YJY is after). But actually when YJY gets a short message, he thinks that it would have been better if he went after HC back then and they're be together now (I mean, he's so cheap, like you can't get one brother and chase the other, but never confirmed why they treat you like an empty space). So he actually decides to chase HC for real. (I'd like to see him try, with an impenetrable wall like SQS) HC finished his morning work and SQS was done with writing his little novel, so both went to underground parkinglot deciding on which place to choose to eat, but were stopped by SQY who actually brought Li Hui. Li Hui with all his pomp said to Han Cheng that he's an ex-boyfriend he should know him after all SQS is hardcore in love with him and he confessed that he's SQS's first love. HC was surprised by these words. End of this chapter. *All dialogues are an edited form from MTL version Honestly, I can't wait to see what artillery SQS will use, these two are so dead
CHAPTER 24 The perfect theater continues And actually perfect resolvement of SQS and the ex-dog Li Hui. It starts with Li Hui word attack and questioning HC asking him if SQS also told him he was his first love, that he'd die for him etc. HC's mood was a bit subtle and surprised looking at SQS, while SQS was shaking his had, he couldn't say it wasn't him but the original owner who was so brain-dead. HC actually asked himself - Is this the type he likes? Is SQS blind? And also he said he's a new car (well, yes actually, all readers know that ). Anyway their subtle change between HC and SQS was interrupted by Li Hui asking how SQS can deny their relationship, who was that took taxi at night if he felt bad and did other stupid stuff. HC was surprised - Such a love saint! And subtly asked - Did these things happen? But SQS' promise to explain later was interrupted by SQY of course (who couldn't hold to bring disaster if not him) asking to explain now and why SQS never mentioned Brother Han (he surely switched to call Han Cheng 'Brother Han' pretty quickly without authorization. But good thing Han Cheng is not a doof and can read people well, so he actually helped SQS to play their obsessive bf attack x I want to leave you, your love suffocates me receive When SQY started pouring green tea of - Brother Han is so righteous, but look at my brother so not worthy of your decent feelings, if I have a boyfriend with such feelings, I'd definitely not leave him etc. But HC shot him down with - You're not worthy. You don't know what happened between me and Qingqing, so you think you have right to share your opinion? (anyway first sign HC is into play is that he calls SQS Qingqing ) From here SQS and HC tacitly started to play together. SQS: Why are you still here, jumping up and down. Provoking separation? SQY: I'm only worried about Brother Han don't want him to be deceived (I cringe every time he says Brother Han) HC, turning and looking at SQS: Is this your purpose? SQS: What purpose I don't have one. HC: So that your brother and ex-boyfriend will come in front of me, so I will be disappointed and will let you go? *gently touching SQS's cheek* You really take great pains to leave me. SQS *finally getting it* *pushing the hand away*: Don't touch me. HC: Just for this man! *looks at Li Hui* he is ugly and poor and cheated on you, if you want to leave me, you can't be so not picky, picking up rubbish is better than him! LH: How do you talk? SQS: Yes, how do you talk? He may be poorer than you, uglier than you, picking up rubbish is better than him, but at least he doesn't want to monitor and control me! (Li Hui getting critical hit :'D) SQS: I just want to leave you, why should I care if others are handsome and rich? You are already standing on the ceiling. Is someone more handsome than you, richer than you, and loves me more than you? No! So I don’t care at all! I just want to leave you and take a short breath of fresh and free air! (Bravo! You go SQS, Oscar is yours!) LH: Shen Qingshu how do you talk! SQS: Am I wrong? Do you think you are handsomer than him, richer than him, and love me more than him? Open your dog eyes and take a good look. LH feeling his fists itching SQS: I'm sorry Li Hui, no matter how much you fail in life, how I despise you, but I did use you, and I apologize to you. LH: Just apologize? HC: Otherwise? LH: For such a big thing just an apology? Forgotten SQY as a side-kick frantically hoping that apology is too little, break-up! SQS: Since things have been revealed now, I will not hide from you. I did stay with him behind your back for a while. I know you are posessive. With strong desire, serious cleanliness, are you sad now, disappointed, full of anger at me, then let me go, let's break up. HC: You think too beautiful! How can you be so cruel! You know that I like you, and I will forgive you no matter what you do. Why do you still say this? Why do you want to behave like this and be with this kind of person! Even if you want to piss me off, you should find a decent person, right?! Such a man, are you deliberately making me feel bad? Bewildered SQY at the side - such a thing exists? should you break up? SQS: Don't you blame me? HC: Of course I blame you. So I will not let you leave, I want you to stay with me, except with me here, not allowed to go anywhere this is my punishment for you! SQY: ............. SQS: Don't you worry that I will be with you and then find someone else? HC: Dare you! SQS: if you forvce me I will do it sooner or later HC: Then I will peel that person's skin *turns to look at Li Hui* I can't hurt you, but I don't care so much about others. Anyway LH already has a reverse in thinking, previously he thought SQS would die for him, but now doubts their feelings and truly believes he was a second boat LH: You are (SQS) really a scum! SQS: But better than you. At least I didn't hide it from you. I didn't let you find out that I was like you, and I just rolled with others. After a long time facing your face really affects my appetite. Didn't you find that I lost weight during the days when I was with you? LH seized SQS and found that he was more plump than previously and his temperament changed. Previously he was like a dead, but it also was connected to death, since his mother was at the death's door, but she was the one who prevented them to have sex, that's why he hated her and was happy she'll be gone soon (like what the hell, first time seeing such a scum). But because SQS paled from previous pretty image LH's interest also became smaller and he fooled around with others. SQY: Brother, so if you don't love Li Hui, why haven't you spoken about Brother Han? SQS: Who would talk about people they want to leave, you think I'm stupid? SQY: Why haven't you left? SQS: As you can see *points at HC who was holding his shoulder all this time* he is determined to persue me, even with grassland on his head he'd chase me until I'm old. HC *squeezing shoulder more*: Qingqing why you want to keep my head green? Was the freedom given to you lately too much? I'll make a cage for you. LH - This is crazy love! LH: Qingqing even if you don't believe me, I still loved you (hypocrite) SQS: Have you ever loved me? But I haven't loved you at all. Alas, I've already curtailed my charm, so why are you still like this. Are you not a scumbag? Made such a low-level mistake, fell in love with me so easily? Even if I am handsome, talented, suave, taught and gentle, but you can't do this, it really disappoints me! LH: But you paid for me! SQS: It's just an illusion, don't take it seriously, I will stop to feed stray cats and dogs, this is my kindness and honesty! I am full of love! Of course, I didn’t mean you are a stray cat or dog. You are not as cute as a cat or dog, but for freedom, I can bear it. HC was at limit and almost laughed, grabbed SQS's wrist and dramatically walked away with a promise to go even to hell together. SQY on the side - What kind of demonic love is that?! *All dialogues are an edited form from MTL version And I switch to dialogues since it's easier form than he said, she said. Honestly, dialogues are the best part of it, otherwise the whole chapter would be few lines. I think the way how the previous story with LH can be forgotten now I must thank HC, this was a bit unpredictable that he will switch to their mini-theater to fool people, but he's truly a great ML, seeing SQS denying and with previous share of his story at home (after all he told HC of why he left home and how he was treated at home, HC also knew SQS had no money on him, just a thin suitcase), so I presume he didn't believe those songs mixed with green tea.
Why didn't HC bro blacklisted Yan guy ?? I didn't get the reason on mtl . Why don't they confront his two face behavior?
The reason is cute. Several times he mentioned that he was actually ashamed of being a spare tire to his own brother, it hurt his self-esteem and he doesn't want others to know that YJY treats him as a spare tire. His brother Han Yu simply doesn't care to take any actions against YJY, I assume 1) because he knows that YJY would interpret it as attention and 2) back when they talked about it for the first time Han Cheng mentioned the whole spare tire in front of Han Yu, so I guess with his love for Han Cheng he won't reveal the whole thing.
CHAPTER 25, 26 and 27 Ok, we're back. I'll be a little bit shorter this time, since chaps 25-26 to me don't have that much going on. On the contrary chap 27 has quite a sweet moments :3 Anyway back in the car. HC again asked if he really has nothing to do with LH. SQS decided to play the previous events as excuse saying that when he saw his own mother with SQY he was shocked and then his own biological parents also cared for SQY more than him, that caused him a great deal of shock and back then LH chased him, so he decided to associate, but he nevel crossed the line and never allowed LH to touch him, since where is he and where is LH that dog. This basically resolved all questions between them. But funny thing HC allowed SQS to drive the car which he regretted (and I mean actually driving, not the euphemism for sex), since SQS might be called a wild driver and it's the third time, but this time although it was stressful HC didn't have time to want to puke in the car. Anyway SQS went back home and HC back to company where his secretary told him that his brother is waiting for him. Here is the part I didn't find that interesting, it tells a misinterpretation of Han Group employees who think that HC is a naive kid and HY is abusing older brother (due to HC casually not wanting to be called Director Han the first day he arrived and dropped call me President Han, which surely points on a seniority aiming in the company) and how HC even has a trumpet on their employee net to see the progress, but with no matter how he tried to fix those it never happened. While HY actually just likes to tease his younger bro. And this time it was the same, HY teased him for falling in love, but when HC denied HY played a video from te parking lot with his and SQS mini-theater was recorded. HC was embarrassed to beyond and more, now he knew how SQS felt. Anyway they have brotherly little scuffle, HY agreed to delete on his phone, but later dropped a bomb that he has a back-up To feel better HC phoned SQS to start reciting the novel and make SQS embarrassed and also angry since he helped with dealing with green tea set today and this is his reward. But HC when thinking that SQS although stays at home is dedicated to his novel writing and then they drive at night (now this is talking about sex). He sent SQS rewards on the novel site (which SQS still hasn't realized that his daddy on the novel site that showers him with rewards is Han Cheng). But since he got money from novels and SQY he sent a red envelope and asked not to waste money anymore. Then HC got a message from a third friend who was absent at that evening dinner, he at first wanted to meet the infamous SQS, but at first HC refused, yet when he had to agree for another meeting, YJY included, since he wants to say - I don't want YJY to come, but after all if he says he has to give a passible reason and the reason he has is too shameful for him, so he had to agree. But he decided to make SQS come for which when he went home he went to buy groceries, so he can cook a delicious dinner (basically buttering up ) At first HC started from a bit far topic, since SQS might not be busy they should go to a bar, which SQS was happy to hear about, only later that going to bar grew with details that they won't be alone. SQS guessed that YJY would be included in the package, but he still couldn't guess why HC didn't like YJY and threw few reasons, but it still wasn't it. HC cooked, SQS helped to serve the food and they had a pleasant dinner, but HC suddenly asked if SQS has any questions, but SQS was only puzzled, but when HC hinted about his identity, SQS stayed like a calm lake, because 1) he already knew about it and 2) he doesn't really care, since he's a cannon fodder tool man and all those money won't fall anywhere near him, so he realistically doesn't care, he decided long time ago that whe the protagonist appears he'll help them cultivate feelings and fuck off into sunset. HC was surprised by SQS's reaction it subtle but it wasn't a bad feeling. HC: I thought you would be surprised SQS: Why? Because you are rich? Then I vaguely felt it before, so there is no need HC: Aren't you angry? We have known each other for so long, and I have never told you who I am SQS - And I haven't told you that I crossed over in a book SQS: The relationship between the two of us has nothing to do with your identity. You know my identity is because I need your help. You don't need my help. Naturally, you don't need to tell me HC: You are quite transparent SQS, entering narcissus state: Do you think I am very caring? HC *nod* SQS: This is me, gentle and considerate me, kind and upright me! I'll tell you, I'm always moved by my thoughtfulness HC - Sure, if one praises, you will fly to the sky. (SQS is such a peacock at times ) Anyway, after dinner SQS went to wash the dishes and HC tagged along to help and asked - Have you considered, can I get into the car tonight? SQS: The pot hasn't been cleaned yet, you start to think about the car HC: I fed you, shouldn't you feed me? SQS, turned around and delivered a fruit plate: If you don't have enough, eat some fruit HC: What kind of fruit to eat, you are so beautiful and delicious, of course it is appropriate to eat you (agggh so much dog food) But SQS did agree for this evening, though was surprised by three rides request (HC explained SQS stood him up this many times and accumulated from previous times ). It's really cute how when going out SQS got an idea and stuck his cold hands into HC's clothes to prank him, but later appeased with a kiss and went to wash. Shen Qingshu went up and down the mountain three times, feeling that he was really tired, and closed his eyes in Han Cheng's arms to prevent him from going to take a bath. "Tomorrow morning." He held Han Cheng and didn't let go, "I'm sleepy, I want to sleep." Hearing this, Han Cheng had to hug him tightly, turn off the light, and kiss his face, "Good night." Shen Qing said in a low voice, then raised his face and said softly, "Kiss again." Han Cheng laughed, unconsciously hugged him tighter, lowered his head and kissed him on the cheek several times. Shen Qingshu leaned on him satisfied and fell asleep. *All dialogues are an edited form from MTL version So, here we have it It wasn't that eventful, but chap 27 fixed that with the truck of dog food. SQS doesn't even realize that he's acting coquettish and where in the world it will be easy to separate.
Basically they have entered old couple phase without realizing. I feel Han Cheng will be first one to fall in love. But I did found han bro interactions funny . I really like Han Yu personality. He could stand out as a Ml of a standalone novel. Both of bros are fresh breath of 'ml' without any cold, indifferent or trauma going on...
Indeed, their banters before cohabitation already were cute, but after they started living together they just entered this old married couple antics I also think HC will be first to fall, after all SQS lives with conviction that what waits them is separation. Yah~ my thoughts exactly, Han Yu is also humorous, there's absolutely no cliches like cold face, phoenix eyes and brows and 1 word per week. The way he teases HC is just the best
CHAPTER 28 (YJY is so not SQS's opponent, why does he even bother, while he's clowning around with his antics of friendship I feel embarrassed for him.) So, our boys wake up, have breakfast and each go their own way, HC to work, SQS to write his yellow novel. HC also saw the private message from SQS (his local tyrant account) and they have a little chat, HC even tries to bribe SQS so that he will add some more kids to the novel, but SQS thinks that's too much Su Bai and Su Ao is already enough. The day progresses fast and the two went to a meeting in the bar. (Time to name other friends, so it'll be easier to navigate): - Wu Yang (WY) pretty innocent guy, actually believes in SQS act of white lotus and YJY friendship antics. - Yin Mingyao (YMY) was also present during previous dinner with WY and saw all the play, but he actually understands the true faces and doesn't mind, he actually finds it fun and doesn't understand how WY doesn't see it. - Zhou Jinming (ZJM) previousy was on business trip and was the one who called HC for this meeting and asked to bring SQS (Most of the time these three stay silent, but I still think it's necessary, since they keep appearing in the novel, I hope they have a chance, it's not their fault that YJY simply can't shut up provoking SQS. End of note ) SQS greets ZJM and YMY who also arrived and he sat to drink a bit while HC also ordered him few snacks, so he won't have upset stomach. WHile this is all going on the last batch with WY and YJY arrives, it's funny how YJY tried to sit next to HC but HC switched places so SQS would be between them ahahaha. At first YJY didn't want to pay SQS any attention, but...))) HC also pointed WY to sit next to ZJM, since he remembered what WY wrote about SQS in their group chat. Although WY tried to protest but HC promised if he does not do it, he will sit him himself. SQS looked strange at this picture and thought - is it because of him? He looked at WY and admitted that he's not his type at all, after all HC is the best among the rest, he's a protagonist attack after all. HC saw his attention and while SQS was drinking he approached his ear - Are you satisfied with what you saw? SQS had wine stuck in his throat and coughed for a while. HC: Why are you so excited? It seems to be very satisfied. SQS: Don't say such a thing HC: You see, I'm not even allowed to say anything. SQS: I'm just looking HC: Another driver SQS: How it could be possible with a casual person? HC: Are you still watching? SQS: I will only look at you in the future. HC: Don't, the outside world is wonderful, and the drivers outside are very heroic. SQS, reaching out and holding HC's hand: I don't like a heroic driver. I like you. You are so handsome. You have to have confidence in yourself. You are the son of the richest man! HC, squeezing hands: I am very confident in myself, I just don't have that confidence in you. SQS: That's your fault. As your exclusive private car, you have to have confidence in your car, not everyone can board my luxury car. HC: Hope~ YJY on the side lines can't believe their interactions, thinking they're the best friends here etc. (Like he is so self-hypnotized that I start to feel pity, remember how when you read about a character and wonder how could he do stupid things as a third wheel and next you read about a character like YJY and you realize how). YJY: Xiao Cheng pass me the wine in front of you SQS passes the wine without HC touching the bottle YJY: Thank you. What did you say to Xiao Cheng, so quietly. SQS: Of course it means that only the two of us can listen. A secret~ HC: Mhm YJY looking at HC squeezing SQS face and embracing and almost spilling the whole lot of wine. At this time the waiter brought the snacks which HC placed in front of SQS and ordered him to eat first and then drink not to upset his stomach. YJY: Then you should buy him a bottle of yogurt, drinking is bad for the stomach. HC, looking at the waiter asking if there's a yoghurt and knowing there is none asked to buy one SQS: Thank you Brother, Jiayu, you can really take care of others. YJY: We have known each other for so many years. Most of the time, I took care of him. SQS: Really? Then I toast you, thank you for taking good care of him. I like it very much. YJY: It's not necessary, it's all mutual. Xiao Cheng also takes care of me very much. I don't eat spicy food so much, so every time I go out to eat, he will accommodate me and order dishes that are not spicy. SQS: Brother Jiayu, are you very domineering? YJY: Of course not, he took the initiative. SQS: Then since Brother Jiayu is not overbearing, and you are not short of money, why can’t you order more dishes? If you don’t eat spicy food, he eats spicy food, how can you still need to wrong yourself for this kind of thing, are you all so stupid? Here is the part I don't really get a bit, so it's my assumption that YJY talks as if HC ordered only for himself and always accomodated him, but HC actually ordered for YJY and for himself and spicy dishes that YJY doesn't it were present. Sorry for my mambo-jumbo, it's all my interpretation, since judging by the next content it seems to be this sense to be implied. SQS: Really? Brother Jiayu, why do you lie again? Every time you lie, your face won't blush and your heart won't increase beating. I can't tell. If this continues, I don’t know which words you can believe or which words you can’t believe. How will I chat with you in the future. YJY: When did I lie? Shen Qingshu, don't just slander others. Think you are a friend of Xiao Cheng and get away with it, but don't deceive others too much! SQS: Did I understand it wrong? You said that Brother Han gave in to you to order non-spicy dishes, but Brother Han said that he ordered spicy dishes, so didn’t you lie? If it's not you then it's Brother Han who lied. *Looking at HC* You just lied into Brothar Jiayu's face, even if you don't like him, you can't do that, everyone is a friend, your act is not good. YJY: Can you not provoke the feelings between us so much! Shen Qingshu, even if you are jealous that I have a good relationship with Xiao Cheng, you don't have to sow discord like this, right? Han Cheng likes me, can't I know? (I honestly want to pour a cold water bucket on his head, so he'd wake up, delusions are bad). SQS looked at YJY wondering how can you not see that HC doesn't really like you at all... SQS: Are you angry? Did you become angry because you were found lying? But it's okay, as long as you stop lying in the future, I am willing to forgive you. YJY: I don't need your forgiveness! SQS: Oh. Then I won't fogive. ( I'm on the edge with his act, honestly) YJY: ... *looking at HC* Han Cheng, did you deliberately bring him to anger me? HC: Jiayu, what you said.. Qingqing is my friend, he has never been to a bar, so I brought him to have a fun, how could I deliberately anger you. YJY: Then you let him provoke our feelings? (what feelingS? wake up) HC: You think too much. Qingqing is so cute, how can he be wicked? HC basically pointed out that what YJY said wasn't accurate, that's why SQS misunderstood. YJY: So you just watched him sow discord? HC: Jiayu, what's the matter with you, it's obviously that you made a mistake that caused Qingqing's misunderstanding, so why did you give him a backlash? I remember you have never been like this. After studying abroad for three years, you have forgotten the good qualities of our socialism and only remember the self-interested spirit of capitalism? YJY: !!! I didn't, I just state the facts. HC: The fact is that you think too much. Qingqing is not as complicated as you think. SQS *nod* HC *smiling and touching SQS's head*: I knew that Qingqing you are the most innocent and kind-hearted person I have ever seen, and I like your simplicity. SQS *soft smile* YJY - ... angry to the moon and back! HC you blind! HC: Ok, you eat or those will be cold. YJY: I'm also hungry. SQS: Then you can't eat these. These are all spicy. I'm afraid you will feel uncomfortable after eating, and you will blame me when you eat. You just raved about it, I heard it all. YJY: ... *All dialogues are an edited form from MTL version Tbh, again can't help but say that SQS and HC are a perfect duo, their tacit understanding and acting is just top. Again I took a lot of dialogues from the chapter since they're funny and exciting And indeed all three friends stayed silent for entire time, can't be blamed, try to squeeze in-between YJY who tries to pry and SQS defending his territory, to be precise his driver
CHAPTER 29-30 There was a double release. Neat. ZJM offered to play games, while drinking, so they decided on that. (I really have no idea how this game should be called, when a certain number should not be called but passed, e.g. 7, so when a person get's 7, 17, 27 etc. they should say pass or any other phrase) After few rounds WY offers a change of rules, since it's boring like this alone, the person who loses should receive a task from the person before him. So, while SQS was in his own world and asked HC to give him his glass of wine (since he came to a bar, he shouldn't be drinking just fruit wine), he made a msitake and a person before him was YJY, who asked him to go to the dance floor and find any man and get his contact info. Not seeing any problem, just as SQS wanted to go, he was stopped by HC who went instead, hinting what did SQS want to do with those contact info (ahaha jelly) When HC was away YJY couldn't stop pestering of course saying that HC won't be missing for long, he is a pro at this and people can't wait to hang on him, so SQS should cherish the time they're together, since when HC will lose interest he will be nothing (it is told to HC's future wife, I want to see YJY crying later, like really). HC indeed was absent for a short time, but a man tagged after him when he came back and he seems to be an agent, but of course HC refused entering entertainment, while SQS heard entertainment circle he perked up and said that he can film. Seeing this HC said that he can't, but after arguing with SQS, he interrupted SQS with most primitive way, brought SQS on his lap and kissed for a long time. Strangely the supposed agent didn't leave. Getting annoyed he called for the waiter and when SQS calmed down from the kiss a bit, felt a little funny and angry and wanted to explain, but HC interrupted him again. Pouting SQS after receiving another refusal from HC, YJY stuck in and offered SQS the business card that HC brought back, but HC was faster at snatching, seeing that SQS sat near HC pouting. But who should be surprised that YJY again will stick his long nose even here, saying that HC doesn't put SQS on equal footing etc. SQS: Why should he put me on equal position? He was obviously chasing me. Of course, he should hold me. SQS while getting a little clear-headed looked at this tea bag that can't help but use any situation to spout shit, to him this was just a chance, it didn't mean that he will sign and that this agent is reliable, he still felt a little unhappy and to make himself better, there's nothing more than to make YJY unhappy instead. Thus he covered himself and HC with a windbreaker and coquettishly asked for kisses, to appease his not so happy mood, the soft-hearted HC of course agreed. On the sideline YJY who expected them to fight saw this unscientific picture, SQS who was oppressed didn't argue but instead went for another round of kisses. The forgotten trio was talking about this WY was envious, others recommended him not to be, otherwise old Han won't forgive him, but WY insisted that he blesses them, SQS is such a good boyfriend. (The moment of truth) When HC and SQS were done, SQS was met with 4 pairs of eyes that had different expression, he felt a bit embarrassed and sat quietly while sipping on the wine. HC also looked at his profile, slightly red eartips and plump moist lips that amde people recall what just happened and felt his heartbeat speeding. Next moment he said that it's getting late and both of them should go, to which SQS agreed, leaving the quartet behind. Trio behind was wondering - So...this is HC's boyfriend. While YJY could help his poison to say How can HC like him, he met SQS before and knows about Shen family of upstarts, where can he be close to HC in status, he definitely appeared with motives. But was refused by most innocent and believing guy WY who said that HC isn't stupid, he knows people who approach him for his status. Also the trio joked that if it's about status then only Han Yu fits Han Cheng in status, but this type of relationship is forbidden ( what are they, drunk?))) It's funny how YJY got angry being rebutted and left without a word, but WY blamed it all on capitalism that changed YJY to this ( wheeze ) SQS and HC because they both drank took the taxi home and here HC finally heard that SQS actually really wants to film, he wants to earn money. HC asked if writing novels wasn't enough? And SQS said it was indeed not enough, which made HC surprised - I smashed so much money on that site and it's nto enough? HC: So you want to go filming? SQS: I always wanted to. HC: Really? I didn't see it. SQS: That's why I didn't tell you. What I originally thought was that after more than two months I will go to the signed draft. HC!!: Draft? SQS: Men's team draft, first start from a team, then switch to filming. HC: So besides writing your novels, you also plan to enter the entertainment industry? SQS *nod* HC: You are not afraid that you will lose the election? SQS: How can I lose the election when I am so handsome? (peacock awakened XD) HC: So you are serious. SQS: Yes HC: Then what if I don't agree? SQS: Why do I need you to agree to my job choice? HC: So you haven't even considered whether I agree or disagree? SQS: I... need to consider whether you agree? HC was upset (poor baby, he doesn't know that in SQS's head he exists as a tool man and waits for protag shou to appear, so he doesn't take himself seriously), they were living together for this long and he never even told him of his plans. Too scumbag. SQS gave a critical hit when said - You should be happy for me to find the job I like. HC felt really upset, even when SQS leaned on his shoulder he tried to avoid and asked him to get up, but SQS in his sleepy and a bit drunk confusion could only say like a baby that he's sleepy. HC couldn't help but feel soft-hearted and offer his lap instead. But HC didn't give up. HC: I can help you find other jobs. SQS: I don't want it, I just want to make a film. HC asked if it wasn't enough to just write, but SQS said it doesn't make much money, which shocked HC, wasn't all the money he smashed considered not enough. SQS: I saved enough for the registration fee. It would be a shame not to go. HC - Where did you get money?! Then looked at his own right hand - You were the one who sent those rockets! He will grab those rewards and run away! You even paid travel expenses! *All dialogues are an edited form from MTL version Sometimes I wish someone would pick this up and officially translate into English, it's just 30 chapters already, nothing big really happened, but it's such a fun ride. And I felt really sorry for HC in the last chapter, surely he felt already attached, only to find that the person next to him doesn't really treat their union the same, of course he doesn't know about any books and the upcoming protagonist and what is on SQS's mind. Originally it was mentioned that there were several months before the draft and it also coincided with arrival of protag shou... now I wonder how long it will take before these events arrive
I didn't feel bad for HC . At start he was the one to clear their relationship but he himself did that low level mistake of getting attached....
Ahahaha damn I thought of alternative version with falling in love after one-night stand and it is so cliche I have goosebumps. But. Otherwise? They both went to have a one-night stand, actually no, I should skip SQS because he viewed it as a fantasy and his last wish to lose virginity, he didn't bother about anything, he wanted it all, but from HC's prespective he's a person who has one-night stand with a stranger, it was pretty logical for him to do that. But who made SQS so charming He couln't escape in the end ahaha.
