(TL: This chapter’s raws have been locked for inappropriate content (you know what this is referring to, kuhum) so the big title I’d usually type here isn’t visible. Oh well)

A series of biological reactions that Murong Jihua does not want to admit even if threatened with his life but is certainly ongoing is currently happening in all 1.86m of his elevation that is his height.

——Excitations in his parasympathetic system are causing the dorsal arteries in his certain sponge-like appendage to expand and his muscles to relax. This leads to increased blood flow into his dorsal arteries…

Which press onto the tunica albuginea, stopping the outflow channels of his dorsal vein. The contractions in his pubococcygeus muscle pressure the sponge-like substance even more, causing further enlargement and hardening. This produces—— (TL: I just translated as-is. I haven’t studied biology so I don’t know if this is accurate at all)

After endless technical terms have flashed through, Murong Jihua still has to face the result of all these biological reactions——

He’s hard.

The source of the stimulation being, the sounds of sucking his rival in love is making, that he can hear even if he blocks off his ears.

Oh Heavens! How disgraced he is, that he does not even dare facing any of the deities or his ancestors in this land!

No! This definitely isn’t because he has any illicit thoughts towards He Jünle; any man would react to some kind of noise like that, wouldn’t he?!

He… probably doesn’t feel that way towards him, right?

——The CEO is still working hard today to firmly hold the steering wheel that is his sexual orientation in the right direction.

“Should be alright.”

He Jünle puts his own sleeves down and seems satisfied reviewing the great work he has done on his own pale skin.

“Hey, what about… you…?”

——Murong Jihua is wearing tight suit pants in the first place.

Therefore, without a doubt, he is in full view of the tent CEO Murong has pitched where he sits.

“… You’re the first man I’ve ever seen that managed to rise just sucking himself.”

“…”

Murong Jihua, who is unable to hide his reaction, looks like he’d rather stick his head in a hole. He says, “you’re the first man I’ve ever seen that acts so gay but isn’t even self-aware.”

“?”

“Never mind… It’s nothing. I was imagining things. It’s normal. Keep your facial expressions up. I, I mean this shaoye is going to drive.”

Being both men, naturally ‘never mind’ means ‘never mind.’

He Jünle, a long time grey area operative, seems to easily accept that explanation and winks at him, asking, “you plan to publically leave like this? Not dealing with it in the toilet first?”

Oh please shut up you still don’t think he’s embarrassed himself enough——”… It’s fine. I can hold it in.”

“I’ll help you.”

“Wah?”

“Switch sides. I’ll drive. You sit here.”

If Murong Jihua could spare a bit more blood from his lower body to his brain, he might have recalled the ‘thrill’ he felt the last time He Jünle drifted through the urban streets with him. He might have had second thoughts about handing the key to the sports car to him.

He Jünle——The Gary Stu is still the Gary Stu!

“Fuck! That big car park entrance is right there, why’d you have to drift and jump over the fence?! The exhaust has pumped right onto that toll booth lady’s face and turned it pale, keep it down, alright buddy?!”

“Jesus!——The paparazzi fearlessly approaching doesn’t mean you should try to one-up them and crash right into them! If they didn’t roll out of the way to the side are you seriously going to add manslaughter to my list of troubles?!”

“AAAAAH! Stop stop stop! This isn’t a motherfucking race course——Oh shit shit shit we’re gonna flip over, I’m so young I don’t want to die in each other’s hands just yet——Eh? We’re fine?”

“Oi oi oi this isn’t how you use the motorway! This isn’t a VR drift game! Slow down, I might not be worried about some damned speeding ticket but you’re…”

…

After all the obstacles, the sports car is finally parked right in front of the garden of the Murong residence.

He Jünle, who was silently driving the whole time, rubs his ears and says with a slightly gravelly voice. It sounds extra sexy.

“Shut up,”

Then he points over to Murong Jihua’s nether regions, and adds,

“I said I’d help you, didn’t I? Look. You’ve gone soft without a problem.”

Yeah, of course it did.

It fucking wilted the moment you started to drift on the highway to hell.

Murong・Cold Exterior/Warm Interior・Jihua-style chuckle.jpg, and he says, “well thank you very much, huh?”

Suddenly, there is a happy voice ringing out from upstairs, “Le-gege! Mr Murong!”

“Mm?”

They look up to see Su Xiaomo in her pyjamas, waving at them with a big, big smile, saying, “I’ll come down after I get changed, wait for me~!”

Murong Jihua begins pondering over her strange liveliness and enthusiasm. Did she OoC?

“Sure, we’ll wait, don’t rush yourself, Mo-er,” He Jünle says with a smile warm as the spring wind.

It makes Murong Jihua slightly bitter inside, and so he puts his hand around his shoulder to pull him closer, and says,

“Make sure you keep the act up later. Our grudges aside, don’t forget that right now, I am your…

Beloved, darling, boyfriend.”

He Jünle smacks Murong Jihua’s hand away with a smile, replying, “I know.”

Soon enough, the female lead, in her new vibrant red dress, runs into the garden with a whole conga-line of maids and Murong Jihua’s butler following, ready to serve her. Her face has a beaming smile on. The eyes that occupy half of her entire face are glimmering under the sunshine.

It really doesn’t look at all like some white lotus female lead in a bossy CEO script.

Murong Jihua sighs inside, lamenting if he’d spoiled her too much.

・

Murong Jihua had weighed all things carefully before daring to directly publicise his (fictional) relationship with his same-sex partner.

One of the things he considered is that——As a childhood friend, Su Xiaomo definitely gets along with He Jünle.

Well, put more accurately, she likes him a lot.

Murong Jihua has worked out that the most critical issue at hand is the pacification of the brain-damaged, terrifying Princess. After dealing with her, the BG route would be much smoother.

If so, even if losing two men that loved her at once would make her begrudge them both…

——After ‘breaking up’ with He Jünle later on, the grudge in Su Xiaomo wouldn’t be too difficult to surpass, hopefully.

That said…

Where is the grudge or discomfort he expected to see on this female lead’s face?!

Dear Xiaomo, your happiness is almost about to leak out physically from that jubilant face!

Su Xiaomo quickly runs to them. When she comes to a stop, she begins searching through her pockets and finally produced two red packets. She hands them over with a slightly flushed face, saying,

“Con… congratulations on making up with each other! Congratulations on coming out of the closet! Um, this is, eh, I, I worked hard part-time outside of school hours and saved them. They’re…

Your complimentary red packets!” (TL: In Chinese culture, you would give money to newlyweds on their wedding, though this is not even an engagement party… That’s the word the author used, in any case, so I’m translating it like that)
