"He's Shen Yu. Haven't you met him several times?" Yi Pin looked at Qi Mingyang in front of him with a helpless expression.
Every time that kind of smile appeared on his face, Qi Mingyang felt a bit creeped out. It was as if Yi Pin was about to scold someone.
"Yeah, but I seem to have seen him somewhere else too." Qi Mingyang smiled again and stared directly at Shen Yu, sizing him up.
Noticing that the atmosphere between the two seemed a bit off, Yi Pin looked blank. Did these two have some sort of feud?
But he didn't have the mind to think about it, or rather, he didn't have the energy to guess other people's thoughts.
So he lowered his head and shoveled the food into his mouth.
"Yi Pin, you must have been reincarnated from a starving ghost in your previous life. Otherwise, why can you eat so much?" Qi Mingyang grinned, but his eyes were filled with affection as he looked at Yi Pin.
"Are you just jealous that you can't afford to eat?!" Yi Pin replied with a smile on his lips. He swallowed his food before speaking, with a hint of helplessness on his face.
It was just having a meal, but Qi Mingyang always had to scold him. As a young boy who was still growing and doing such intense work, it was only natural for him to reward himself with a good meal. But every time, he was made to feel as if he had committed a crime just by eating, and his lack of weight despite eating so much made him seem like a criminal on the run.
"Yes, yes, yes. Eat more. You're amazing!" Qi Mingyang smiled as he watched Yi Pin enjoy his meal.
"Let me tell you, no one but Grandpa Yuan Longping can criticize how much I eat."
Yi Pin curled his lips.
The two of them bickered back and forth, while Shen Yu beside them remained silent, just sitting there quietly.
"Smack!"
Shen Yu suddenly slammed his chopsticks on the table.
The other two were startled and looked at Shen Yu with confused expressions.
"Sir, what's wrong? Are you not satisfied with something?" The waiter was obviously also frightened and quickly rushed over, speaking enthusiastically, thinking there might be a hair or a bug in the food.
"No. You can go!" Shen Yu replied coldly.
After Shen Yu's outburst, the table seemed to fall silent. The other two also stopped talking.
When they walked out of the restaurant, Qi Mingyang grabbed Yi Pin's hand and whispered in his ear, "Do you think I offended him? Or did I do something wrong? I feel like he's been targeting me."
"Don't take it to heart. He's just like this. Sometimes he goes crazy, and he's the same way with me." Yi Pin patted Qi Mingyang on the shoulder and smiled.
Then the three of them said goodbye in the parking lot.
"Let Shen Yu take you home first?"
Yi Pin asked with a smile, looking at Qi Mingyang.
"No, no. I'll leave first. My home isn't far!" Qi Mingyang quickly waved goodbye. If he couldn't escape quickly, if he really had to be taken home by Shen Yu, he might really lose his life.
Yi Pin got into the car and looked at Shen Yu, who still had a gloomy face. He felt annoyed. This guy's anger came out of nowhere.
"What's your problem? Are you crazy? Look at how scared you made Qi Mingyang." Yi Pin didn't really want to say anything at first, but he couldn't help it when he saw Shen Yu's expression. He was the kind of person who couldn't keep things in his heart. If there was a conflict, he had to say it right away; otherwise, he would keep thinking about it and feel uncomfortable.
"Is this the psychological quality of an officer?" Shen Yu replied coldly and suddenly stepped on the accelerator, speeding away.
Yi Pin looked at him blankly and helplessly took out his phone to find a funny video. He couldn't let his mood be affected by others. The only way to relieve stress was to find some funny videos to have a good laugh!
"Turn it off!"
Shen Yu spoke coldly and domineeringly, with an uncompromising look on his face.
"Are you really asking for a beating? Just because you're sad, does the whole world have to be sad with you?"
Yi Pin turned around and glared at Shen Yu, full of anger. His bad temper flared up immediately.
The happy laughter from the funny video echoed in the car, making the situation a bit strange.
"Do you know that Qi Mingyang is gay?" Shen Yu asked coldly.
"Yes, I do. So what? Does he eat your food or use your land? Why do you keep meddling in other people's business? Even if he is gay, so what? Does it affect you? Why do you have to look at others with prejudice? He hasn't done anything wrong. He just loves someone. Does he really have to be morally condemned?"
Yi Pin's anger was also ignited. Just thinking about it made him feel annoyed.
"You..." Shen Yu was stunned by these words. He had always been worried that a straight guy like Yi Pin would never accept it, but it seemed he had worried too much.
"You... What are you stuttering about? Let me tell you, don't just show me your bad temper. No one is born to endure others. Life is already hard enough, and you negative and pessimistic people keep spreading negative and pessimistic ideas. How can the world get better?"
Yi Pin continued, scolding angrily.
Shen Yu felt a bit guilty. He realized that he had been so jealous and muddled that he had forgotten to consider Yi Pin's feelings.
After scolding, Yi Pin felt better, but the atmosphere in the car became extremely awkward.
Neither of them said a word. The air was filled with an awkward silence.
Just as Yi Pin was about to get out of the car, Shen Yu grabbed his wrist and smiled, "I know. I'll change!"
Suddenly hearing this, Yi Pin was even more at a loss. He had just been angry and had scolded without thinking.
Now that he thought about it, he felt a bit regretful. It wasn't a good thing to say things too sharply.
"You... You're awesome!" Yi Pin suddenly gave a thumbs - up and smiled.
Even he was a bit confused by this strange gesture.
"Are you kidding me?" Shen Yu couldn't help but burst out laughing. He suddenly thought that Yi Pin was quite cute sometimes, and his actions were really funny.
"No! I'm just expressing my true feelings."
Yi Pin also couldn't help laughing. The two of them burst out laughing at the car.
"At this moment, the sub - text of the car: 'Are these two idiots laughing at me for being too crazy?'"
Yi Pin imitated the voice of SpongeBob and said with a laugh.
Shen Yu laughed again, with the corners of his mouth rising wildly. He felt that he hadn't laughed like this for a long time.
Sometimes he thought that Yi Pin was really a treasure, but there were misunderstandings and barriers between them.
"Actually, I didn't mean that being gay was bad, nor did I mean to condemn it."
Shen Yu said with a smile. He locked the car door and thought of Yi Pin's furious look, which made him want to laugh for no reason. It turned out that this little guy could also lecture people, and he did it quite reasonably.
"That's good. They are a special group in life and should be protected by society. I... because one of my roommates in the dorm is gay, so I think it's quite normal..."
Yi Pin smiled, with a bright look on his lips.
