Me And My Four Dancers - Chapter 17

Chapter 17: Erotic Dream

While Yan Shuo was chatting on WeChat, Shen Ze was right next to him, not too far away.

Ever since they’d shared a bed, they’d grown accustomed to this kind of interaction, each ignoring the other and going about their own business.

But since the topic of their conversation was related to Shen Ze, Yan Shuo quietly shifted a little further away from Shen Ze before starting to type.

“Xiao Qi, are you busy?”

“No, what’s up, brother QVQ?”

“…”

The signature “QVQ” popped up brightly on the screen, and Yan Shuo was suddenly reminded that Qi Haoyu was a simple-minded elementary school student. What could he possibly learn from him? This Level 10 QQ Love researcher could at best help him find a new online partner.

Well, now he was here.

Yan Shuo: “Nothing, just chatting with you.”

After sending this message, he thought he should lay the groundwork before getting down to business.

Yan Shuo: “How have you been lately? How’s everything going with your new girlfriend?”

Qi Haoyu: “Fine! She’s super cute! So sweet!”

Qi Haoyu: “But it’s a little upsetting…”

Yan Shuo: “What’s up?”

Qi Haoyu: “She seems to want to meet me in person.”

Yan Shuo: “…”

Isn’t that girl so bold, even at her age? She’s already meeting a stranger after just a few days of online dating?

Qi Haoyu: “Hey, she’s hinted at me a few times, and I’ve deliberately avoided the topic. How could I possibly meet her? But she can see I don’t want to see her and is feeling really down. I’m afraid she’ll be upset. What should I do, brother?”

Yan Shuo: “…”

Since he hasn’t found a relationship mentor, he’ll have to be a mentor to others first.

Never mind. If someone keeps calling him brother, he needs to act like one.

Yan Shuo said, “Do you want to have a relationship? I mean, in real life, behind Li Linjia’s back, would you dare?”

Qi Haoyu: “I wouldn’t dare, QAQ.”

Yan Shuo: “Then let’s just get married. Let’s continue our online relationship. Meeting in person is too risky. Besides, you don’t know her well enough to know her true nature. What if she sees you in person and tells you about it…”

Qi Haoyu: “55555”

Qi Haoyu: “Being a celebrity is so hard, taht.”

Yan Shuo: “Who says it isn’t?”

The two of them were silent for a few seconds. Yan Shuo felt it was time to get down to business. Before he could say anything, Qi Haoyu, understanding enough, took the initiative and asked—

Qi Haoyu: “What about you, brother? You’re already old, why aren’t you ready for a relationship?”

Yan Shuo: “…”

What does “old” mean? He’s a handsome young man in his early twenties, everyone loves him, and he’s not going to be buried.

Yan Shuo: “No rush, I don’t want to talk about it, but…”

Qi Haoyu: “But?”

Yan Shuo feigned, “But lately, things have been a little off with someone. It’s… hard to explain.”

Qi Haoyu: “Who is it?”

Yan Shuo: “Who is it isn’t the point. The point is, he and I have fallen into a strange relationship. I find his attitude towards me incomprehensible and inexplicable.”

Qi Haoyu: “⊙o⊙ Him?”

Yan Shuo: “Her.”

Yan Shuo: “It’s the input method’s fault. Don’t worry about it.”

Qi Haoyu: “Oh, why is it strange? Tell me.”

Yan Shuo: “Well, I’ve known her for quite a while, but it’s always been a normal relationship. We haven’t had a deep relationship.” We’ve gotten closer recently due to some things, so we’ve become closer, I guess. But friends are friends, and neither of us has any thoughts on that sort of thing.

Yan Shuo: “At first, I misunderstood and thought she liked me. Later, when the misunderstanding was resolved, I felt a little embarrassed. Even more embarrassing, she suddenly did something I wasn’t expecting.”

Qi Haoyu: “⊙o⊙ What move!”

Yan Shuo: “Kiss me! Kiss me.”

Qi Haoyu: “!!!”

Qi Haoyu: “Ahhhhhh! I’ve never been kissed by a girl before! My first kiss is still mine! Is this your first kiss too, brother?”

Yan Shuo: “…=_= That’s not the point.”

It’s so hard to confide in an elementary school student. It’s really hard.

Yan Shuo felt a little hopeless and didn’t want to continue. It would be pointless anyway.

Qi Haoyu’s curiosity was piqued, and he pressed the issue.

Qi Haoyu: “Why did she kiss you so suddenly? Does she like you?”

Yan Shuo: “No, after she did, she insisted she didn’t like me at all and had no interest in me at all.”

Qi Haoyu: “Oh my, what a tsundere.”

Yan Shuo: “…”

Yan Shuo: “No, she must really not like me. She ignored me the next day and has been ignoring me for over a week, treating me like air.”

Qi Haoyu: “How could that be? Did you do something to anger her?”

Yan Shuo: “I suspect so, but I’m not sure.”

Yan Shuo: “When we were together that day, she told me she could promise me something. The atmosphere was very tense, and I was in a bad mood, so I didn’t immediately understand what she meant. He responded casually and jokingly asked her to pay back the money. ”

Yan Shuo: “But she doesn’t look like she’s angry about paying back the money.”

Yan Shuo: “Actually, I came to my senses a little bit afterwards. She might have been hinting at me… hinting at that, and asking me to take the initiative to speak.”

Qi Haoyu: “⊙o⊙?”

Yan Shuo: “It seems to mean that, but it doesn’t seem to be the case. The main reason is that I don’t feel that she likes me. Normally, if you like someone, shouldn’t you take the initiative to show your favor to them? She has never shown any special expression to me.”

Qi Haoyu: “Not necessarily.”

Qi Haoyu: “Girls are generally more reserved.”

Qi Haoyu: “But she took the initiative to kiss you. It’s so strange…”

Yan Shuo: “Yeah, I can’t understand.”

Besides, Shen Ze is not a girl. Why is he so reserved? If you don’t like her, you just don’t like her.

But then again, if there is no such meaning, would a real straight man joke about kissing? It’s too far out of bounds.

Yan Shuo’s head hurt. It was okay that he didn’t chat with Qi Haoyu. The more he chatted, the more confused he became. This matter should not be thought about deeply at all.

Qi Haoyu said, “Brother, why don’t we ask Brother Jin? He’s the best at this kind of thing, qvq.”

Yan Shuo: “No need.”

Qi Haoyu: “Don’t be shy, this is about your life!”

Yan Shuo: “…”

Qi Haoyu’s hands were incredibly fast, and he quickly created a small group of three people named “Save the Lost Youth Stuck in the Mire of Love.”

Yan Shuo: “…”

On the bright side, at least Qi Haoyu didn’t say it directly in their five-person group chat. Otherwise, if Shen Ze saw it, he would be publicly punished again.

Just as Yan Shuo sighed, the group chat began.

Li Jin: “What’s going on? What kind of group is this?”

Yan Shuo’s face was blank, and he cruelly quipped, “A group for junior high girls to share their true love.”

Li Jin: “…”

Li Jin: “Hey, what’s going on? Who’s fallen for love?”

Qi Haoyu: “Brother Yan.”

Qi Haoyu: “Wait, I’ll send a screenshot.”

A few seconds later, Qi Haoyu quickly sent out the chat logs between him and Yan Shuo.

Li Jin quickly read through them. As a seasoned love expert at the highest level, it felt like a waste of talent to have him attend such a forum for elementary school kids.

Li Jin didn’t reply for about two minutes.

Just when Yan Shuo thought he would stop talking, a message popped up in the group chat.

Li Jin: “What’s her usual demeanor like? What’s her personality like?”

Demeanor? Personality? She’s just aloof, solitary, and unsociable. As for her attitude towards relationships, Yan Shuo didn’t understand. He didn’t even know if Chen Ze had ever been in a relationship; it seemed like she hadn’t.

But he couldn’t be too honest, fearing it would be exposed and Li Jin would see through him. So he vaguely replied, “Not very enthusiastic.”

Li Jin said, “In your case, she might be deliberately flirting with you, flirting with you in a way that feels real and fake, using you as a backup. If you don’t take it seriously, she’ll play into her hands. If you start to get serious and hold her accountable, she’ll just innocently ask, ‘What’s wrong? What are you talking about? Did anything happen between us?'”

Li Jin: “Or, maybe she’s interested in you, but confessing directly won’t win you over, so she’s playing hard to get, baiting you, waiting for you to take the bait.”

Qi Haoyu: “⊙o⊙ Wow, that sounds so sophisticated…”

Yan Shuo: “No way, she doesn’t seem like that kind of person.”

Li Jin: “Does that mean she’s more serious?”

Yan Shuo: “Yeah, almost…”

Li Jin: “Then it might be a case of passion.”

Qi Haoyu: “What do you mean by passion?”

“Brother.” Li Jin sent a smoking emoji and began his s3x education. “You have to understand that both men and women are sensual creatures. When the right time, place, and atmosphere are right, it’s easy for them to lose themselves, let their hormones take over, and become attracted to you.” , generated passion, and did abnormal things, but when she thought about it afterwards, she regretted it. She didn’t want to be responsible for what she had done, and just regarded it as an impulsive mistake. She didn’t even want to admit that she had made a mistake, so she closed her eyes and pretended that nothing had happened. ”

Li Jin: “I have seen this kind of people a lot. I used to be impulsive, but now that I have experience, at least I will never come across this type of person.”

Yan Shuo: “…What type am I?”

Li Jin: “She left without mercy, and you are still thinking over and over again, why, why, does she like me?”

Li Jin: “It’s easy to be relied on.”

Yan Shuo: “…”

Yan Shuo: “No, I didn’t think about it over and over again. I’m just curious.”

Li Jin: “Curiosity is the first step to fall in.”

Li Jin: “A man must not be curious about a woman. You should let her be curious about you so that she can never see through you. Do you understand?”

Qi Haoyu: “I understand, I understand! I understand!”

Yan Shuo: “…”

You know a ball.

Yan Shuo was overwhelmed. He carefully read over Li Jin’s words and put himself in Shen Ze’s shoes.

But he still couldn’t decide—

Was Shen Ze playing hard to get, deliberately setting him up, or was he acting out of passion, then distancing himself from him afterward, pretending nothing had happened and continuing to be a straight man?

The latter seemed closer to reality.

Yan Shuo put down his phone and went to the bathroom to shower.

While this conversation didn’t completely resolve his doubts, he at least understood one thing: he shouldn’t be curious about these things. Shen Ze could do whatever he wanted; it was none of his business.

Standing firm as a mountain is the right path.

Satisfied, Yan Shuo showered and went to sleep.

Perhaps because of the entire night of s3x education, his mind was filled with the passionate hormones of men and women, Yan Shuo had a dream that night.

A dream filled with pornographic waste.

In the dream, he was pinned down on the bed, someone kissing him passionately, moving against him relentlessly. He couldn’t tell if the other person was a man or a woman. All he could feel was the scalding sweat and breath that threatened to kill him. His entire body was drenched in sweat, his throat felt like smoke, and even his moans were on fire.

Yan Shuo felt a pang of pain and couldn’t help but reach out and push the person away.

However, as his hand reached out and touched the person, the person suddenly raised their head, and he saw the face clearly: it was Chen Ze.

Yan Shuo was startled, but in his dream, he didn’t seem surprised. He actively hugged Chen Ze, panting and calling out his name.

Chen Ze kissed him even more passionately.

This kiss was real. He subconsciously recalled the feeling of their last kiss, but it was even more forceful and breathless.

Yan Shuo was suffocating, and in a wave of suffocating fear, he was awakened by the sound of someone calling him.

“Hey.” Chen Ze pushed him.

“…”

Yan Shuo opened his eyes, but for several seconds, he couldn’t focus, staring blankly at Chen Ze.

Chen Ze turned on the light. “What’s wrong with you?”

“…” Yan Shuo calmed his breathing, regaining consciousness. “No… aren’t you asleep yet?”

“Yes,” Chen Ze said. “You woke me up talking in your sleep.”

Yan Shuo: “Oh, sorry.”

His chest felt tight, and he coughed softly twice. Looking down, he suddenly realized that his blanket had been kicked off at some point, leaving him with only a thin layer of pajamas, covering nothing.

Yan Shuo felt guilty and tugged at the blanket.

Did he talk in his sleep? What did he say?

It was even worse than talking in a dream, especially with Chen Ze looking at him now. The face before him was so clearly defined, it overlapped with the one in his dream. For a moment, he was dazed, almost delusional, wondering if he and Shen Ze had actually done something.

“Do you need help?” Chen Ze suddenly said.

Yan Shuo was stunned. “Huh?”

Chen Ze raised his chin, indicating the arch of his lower body. “I say, do you need help?”
