Chapter Three.

I used my palm to fan the air and said, "It's... It's... your house is too hot. Did you set the room temperature too high?"

Shi Nan responded to him, saying: "Pan Wei De, you claimed that you broke up with and reported Ji Xunxun because she relied on hidden rules to gain an advantage in the competition, and you couldn't bear to see it, right?"

The one who came later.

Originally, he also loved me. Everything was just a series of coincidences. He didn't see my love letter, and I didn't see the note he loved. In the time when we both thought we were rejected, we silently took a step back and remained in the position of good friends who would never lose each other.

Please don't let my nightmare come true, I beg you. I can't lose you. Even if we can't be lovers, I hope you can show some kindness and not cut ties with me. As long as I can be by your side, we can meet anytime. If you want to find a boyfriend, I can support you. If you get married, I will send you off. If you have children, I can be their godfather. All I ask is to be able to see you and for you to never change in my lifetime.

Yu Xi has been accompanying me all the time, with a smile on his face. He tells everyone he meets that Shi Nan has left, and those who don't know would think that Shi Nan is dead. Actually, death is not the end, but I worry that he will get drunk and die on the West Third Ring Road, or be raped by a homeless person. I worry that his body cannot bear it, especially since he has hemorrhoids, which are more painful than usual. I worry that on hazy days, he doesn't know how to protect himself and wanders outside all day, breathing in the haze, which will harm his health in the long run.

I suddenly feel a bit uncomfortable in my heart. It is necessary for me to clarify that as a friend, you are eager to distance yourself from me, as if I am so terrible that it would tarnish your lifelong reputation.

After thinking for several days, I suddenly understood the unique and almost abnormal art of love exhibited by Shi Nan. I found a suitable moment, poked his shoulder with my finger, and quietly asked, "Um... are you not very capable in that aspect? It's okay, just tell me directly. I promise not to tell anyone. We're just friends, I'll help you figure out a solution. With the advanced medical technology nowadays, there must be a way to fix it."

There is a positioning.

I feel really sorry for Qiaojiamu. This can be considered as provoking him, right? Let me explain again: "He acts like he's sick every day... Don't worry about it."

I was stunned for a long time when you... I couldn't understand what kind of emotion was surging in my heart. I could only clearly distinguish that Shinan's kiss left me with a complete psychological shadow!

My heart thumped, and I suddenly opened my eyes.

Shi Nan's mother also talked to me.

Remember, I am Shi Nan, and I have never been an ordinary man.

Pan's face turned darker in color.

His breath came through the phone, those were the longest few seconds of my life, without a doubt.

Hello! You are the comedian! I am the invincible and talented beautiful girl, thank you.

Qiaojiamu is pretty good. He actually helps you. I feel that he is quite good to everyone. He is like a central air conditioning unit.

I wanted to clarify right away, but Shi Nan was quicker than me and said with a hint of disdain, "She is not my girlfriend."

If it weren't for someone else being present, Shina would have been killed by me by now. The relationship between him and me is simply advancing by trampling on each other's bottom line. Then he said to Qiao Jiamu, "Mr. Qiao, I came uninvited, I hope you don't mind."

Shi Nanbai glanced at me and said, "Impotence and premature ejaculation do not hinder the ability to have children. Thank you. Were you too busy skipping class and sleeping during biology class?"

"Ah? Is my reputation already this big?" I was so excited that I didn't know what to say, I wiped my hands and quickly shook hands.

You can see a mirror when you look up, and in the mirror, I have a bitter face, almost dripping with yellow gentian juice. He still intends to puncture this piece of paper.

I saw that Shih Nan still looked very weak, so I didn't mention it again. I believe I can handle it myself. After all, the innocent need not worry. Although those scrutinizing looks made me extremely uncomfortable, I haven't done anything wrong. Can Pan Wei come up with any other evidence?

Wow... I was so amazed that I didn't even have time to wonder how Shina appeared. I immediately applauded and exclaimed, "Amazing, Shina! How did you know?!"

Without even lifting his head, Shi Nantou gave an answer: "I don't know, maybe it's because my handsomeness has burned the souls of the people, so it's better for them to stay away from me to save their lives."

"Don't stare at me like that, it's strange and captivating."

I resisted the urge to take off my shoe and smash it in his face, thinking to myself, "But according to normal logic, if a man frequently changes girlfriends, doesn't that mean he is a promiscuous creature driven by his lower desires?"

Yu Xi: "......".

After several hours, Shi Nan replied to me: "Is there something wrong?"

It turns out that this was a dream.

But it has to be said that Qiao Jiamu chose this place particularly well, because the students of our art academy, whether rich or poor, basically don't go there, so it saves the embarrassment of bumping into acquaintances and being gossiped about.

Qiao Jiamu left, leaving me alone in the room with no scent of food. I sat on the balcony and watched outside until night fell before sending a text message to Shi Nan.

The news can be updated now. I officially passed level 902 last night," Yu Xi was immersed in his own achievement, suddenly looked towards somewhere and asked, "Strange, why do I feel that those classmates who are having meals are deliberately avoiding your table?"

I didn't even think about it and instinctively shook off his hand! The shock in my heart is still hard to describe. Does Shi Nan like me? What does he like about me? Since when? Why didn't he say anything? We have been friends for many years, teasing and mocking each other. He never stopped me from having a boyfriend, and I never asked about his girlfriend. Is this the kind of relationship that implies liking? Impossible!

I also laughed and said, "Hmm, come up here and I will tell you my answer."

What's going on... I always have a feeling that these two have formed a united front of love during the time I don't know about, with mutual affection, wanting to break away from me. This kind of plot is too common in BL culture. Forget it, forget it. Although the ending between Shina and me completely deviates from the script, as long as he can have a happy ending with the person he likes, it's fine.

Yu Xi came to talk to me.

I don't know if there is a black hole in the toilet of Guanzhong Pindao. Shinan and Qiaojiamu went there and never came back. I waited until the food got cold and I lost count of how many glasses of wine I had. Those two still haven't returned. I really want to call 110 and report a missing person, but they haven't been missing for 24 hours yet, so I can't file a case... This day has been really strange.

"Mr. Qiao, as you can see, my friend is still mentally challenged. You are already a successful person, please do not bully people with disabilities." Just as I was about to strangle him in the passenger seat, Shinan said, "I will not allow anyone to harm her. She is not a woman who can be played with and discarded in your circle. If possible, Mr. Qiao, could you let her go?"

I was quite puzzled and wanted to ask or argue. I was willing to do anything, but my throat was dry and I couldn't utter a single word. I felt resentful in my heart. Since he wanted something, I didn't care what it was. I searched the whole house, indicating that he could take whatever he wanted. Without any verbal interaction, it was like a strange silent play. In the end, I ended up sweating all over, but still couldn't satisfy him.

Goodbye Qiaojiamu, it was also on the day I bought my new phone. He called me and said he would pick me up at the school gate. Just as I sat in the passenger seat, Qiaojiamu greeted me with his signature warm smile, like peach blossoms blooming across the land. He said, "What happened to your phone? I couldn't reach you all this time."

When I open WeChat and search for nearby people, the personal signatures of the men all contain things like 0 and 1, probably some kind of binary code. I don't really understand it.

He interrupted me confidently, making me appear like a morally corrupt teacher. Is he really that pure? It's hard to imagine.

Let me correct you. First, it's working hours, not leisure time. Second, no one is interested in your privacy, it's just to ensure that you won't leak studio secrets." Zou Huaiyang paused for a moment and added, "Besides, there's nothing much to explore in your leisure time—except for using aliases to curse me on various forums, don't pretend to be busy."

From the beginning of my friendship with Yu Xi until now, she has only seen Shi Nan a handful of times. Her emotions of jealousy and hatred, and her ability to laugh at Shi Nan's misfortune, truly puzzled me for a long time, but I still can't figure out why.

I had to pull Shi Nan away as he charged towards Pan Wei De, wanting to hit him.

I feel very embarrassed because I really don't know what to say to him. I expected him to give me some excuses, but he didn't give me any. He just said to me, "I have already taken care of your ex-boyfriend's matter, and no one will speculate about you anymore."

You still have secrets from me now, which is not friendly enough. I have wasted so many years following you!

Qiao Jiamu looked a bit helpless: "If I had known that you didn't even have time to buy a phone, I should have bought it early and sent it to you, wasting these good times for no reason. It's really not right."

My smile at this moment is blooming even more than the sunflowers under the sun, and Shina's rationality is gradually fading away. He has started to curse, but his curses have almost no effect on me.

I used to think that Pan was just a man with a stronger sense of self-esteem and more severe paranoia. But now that he has done such a thing, it is obvious that he has changed his nature because he couldn't get what he wanted. I realize that I have misjudged him, and it is truly lamentable. However, I am not overly saddened by this, as if I have become accustomed to being stabbed.

Yu Xi said, "I helped him open it."

Feeling dizzy, I stumbled down the steps of the restaurant. A driver was waiting for me, saying that Mr. Qiao Jiamu had arranged for him to take me home. Before I could finish my meal or say goodbye, he left me with the driver. What was the point of that? It's like he's trying to reach the heavens.

I licked my dry lips and said, "Is he really here?"

Yu Xi said carelessly, "Do you worship him? Want his autograph? Forget it, I'm afraid to tell you and shatter your illusions. I'm not working under Zou Huaiyang's command, I'm clearly surviving under Yan Wang's command. You don't know how picky he is, a typical Virgo, annoying to death!"

The thirteenth girlfriend of Shi Nan scolded me, saying I was a "buddy slut". It's pitiful. We used to skewer together, drink together, and talk from "Nirvana in Fire" all the way to the trend of the next Powerball draw. We talked from feminism all the way to how to discipline unruly children. I thought I was sincere enough, but she still scolded me.

When he gets upset, he starts talking nonsense. I slapped him across the face and separated him from me. I also apologized to Qiao Jiamu, "Don't take it to heart, he might have had too much to drink."

Shi Nanyao shook his head and said, "No need. Mr. Qiao, I apologize for wanting to ask, what are you and Ji Xunxun doing?"

Shi Nan was momentarily stunned, and his ears turned red in an instant. Just as I was about to mock him by pointing at his ears, he grabbed the back of my neck and pressed his lips against mine. But within three seconds, he pulled away, his movements swift as if nothing had happened.

There is really no misunderstanding...

I had to start feeling my wallet and said, "Let me pay for the bill."

"Are you and him friends?" Yu Xi was a bit surprised. "Oh my, now I've found the reason why I dislike you. Birds of a feather flock together, I dislike both of you. Don't ever take my Xunxun away from my home! She belongs to me."

I was startled by him and got goosebumps all over my body: "Dear, let me remind you that the person you referred to behind you is not a friend, but a sex partner."

I was stunned for a moment, and Shi Nan came over and took my hand, saying, "Come, I'll take you out for a meal."

Yu Xi took on a lot of risks for this trip to the art academy. She had just started working as an assistant in the studio of the famous designer Zou Huaiyang. Zou Huaiyang had three senior assistants and sixteen junior assistants, and Yu Xi was just one of the inconspicuous junior assistants. Although her position was small, she was tormented to the point where she had to skip a few eggs every month.

No problem, perhaps now is not the best time for a heart-to-heart. You have your own emotions to sort out, and I can wait until you're available.

I analyzed and said, "Erxi may be avoiding appearing now because Shina Shi was attacked by Li Jiawei and her group. After all, artists are proud and do not like to face such troubles directly, don't you think?"

I was very close to him, and we would often playfully tease each other without any gender considerations. He would occasionally say ambiguous things to me, which could be easily misunderstood. But I always took it as a joke. Now, suddenly, I don't think so anymore.

I nodded and said, "Of course."

I am completely confused: "Where did you come up with that conclusion?"

How can I eat peacefully with all of you around causing such a fuss?

These words seemed to have been chewed and refined countless times by him.

Now it's Shi Nan's turn to laugh at me: "Darling, do you need me to help you submit a post to 'My Ex is a Jerk' on Weibo?"

Take a look, is this man impressive or not? He is simply a master of the dating scene, a top expert among experts. He has thrown the problem back at me in a clever way.

He nodded and said, "It's fine. I don't care how others talk about me. Those who shouldn't misunderstand me won't misunderstand me."

Go away, let's not talk about this anymore." I waved my hand, not wanting to delve into the details, as it would be of no benefit to our relationship.

Shi Nan said, "Since you have been so straightforward, I will not beat around the bush either. If he asks you to sleep with him, will you go?"

Quickly, speak up.

If Shih Nan brought a young girl here for an abortion, how many punches should I use to beat him back into his mother's womb? Would the number "eight" be appropriate? After all, "eight" is considered lucky.

"Haha," Qiaojiamu laughed again, "then you may have some misunderstandings about your destiny."

A voice came from behind Joe's wooden shack, with a hint of disdain: "Did I come at an inopportune time?"

Joe Jiamu took me upstairs and finally pushed open the door of a ward. A pillow flew towards us, but Joe Jiamu caught it steadily and said to me, "Come in, it's safe inside."

"Please don't make such jokes in the future, otherwise I might mistakenly think that you have feelings for me," I said.

I scolded him, saying, "Go die."

Qiao Jiamu went forward and dug Shi Nan out from the quilt, then stuffed a cushion behind him, arranged the needles and tubes, and then said, "She will always have to know."

I have investigated for you. Jojiamu has not had many female companions in recent years, but he still has several impressive ex-girlfriends. You don't need to compare yourself to them, just be yourself and if you like each other, be together.

I do not approve of his sophistry: "Don't feel embarrassed, I won't look down on you. Think about who has always been as tolerant as a mother, a party, and the sea towards you. I hope you won't let your intelligence down. Trust me, I will always support you and be with you."

"Xiao Qinglong, I am not afraid of embarrassment, rejection, setbacks, or losing face. I am only afraid that you will avoid me. Our relationship will never be the same again. I once thought about taking a chance, wanting a result, but I found that I still didn't have the courage. Now, do you understand?"

Shi Nan expressed appreciation for my actions. He said that it is not easy to make friends and one must be cautious. Who knows whether the kind appearance of the other person is that of a sheep or a wolf. I retorted, "I also don't know if you are a wolf or a sheep beneath your appearance, after all, you hide it so well."

I feel that Zou Huaiyang will still kill her, but now is not the right time to discuss it in detail, because Yu Xi's eyes have already lit up. Following her gaze, Shi Nan is not far from us, leaning against the window of the canteen, lonely nibbling on a stir-fried cabbage. The degree of loneliness in that figure, if there is no background music of "Little Cabbage", it would be a bit disrespectful to this aesthetic image.

No wonder! We are truly narrow-minded! We even suspect others of having ulterior motives towards me, when they are clearly just doing charity work. What a kind person.

When it comes to socializing with others, it is important to pay attention to their WeChat Moments, as there are many tricks here. For example, stay away from those who frequently repost inspirational quotes or health tips, stay away from those who always criticize everything in China and praise everything abroad, stay away from those who excessively praise or criticize every news event, stay away from those who are constantly promoting their entrepreneurial ventures or asking for votes, and block those who constantly show off their children or display excessive affection with their partners.

At that time, he was sharpening a pencil, and the well-shaped pencil tip seemed to have the effect of a poisonous needle being sharpened by him. I was always on guard, fearing that if he got upset, he would stab my artery with the pencil tip. Unexpectedly, he looked up and saw me holding my neck, and he said spiritedly, as if he had touched a switch, "Little Green Dragon, just treat me as cilantro. Some people feel disgust from the bottom of their hearts when they see cilantro, while others can't wait to eat cilantro every day. Can you say that cilantro is wrong? Why does cilantro still need to express its feelings? Isn't it tiring?"

I heard the thunderous sound of my own heartbeat again.

After waking up, I rummaged through my belongings and found the long-awaited gift. While I was putting batteries into it, I discovered a note in the original battery compartment. It said:

Speaking of it, I am worried.

Okay, I got it. Shinan shrugged his shoulders, looking carefree and worldly-wise, then turned around and left.
