　　"What are you doing?!" Sui Yuan reacted subconsciously as he burst out in anger. He reached out to grip the arm Yue Minghe had around his waist and utilized some wrestling skills that he had learnt from the other worlds.

　　Although this body's physical skills were not outstanding, Sui Yuan was still able to easily flip Yue Minghe who was about his height. Fortunately, at this crucial point, he still remembered that the other was his character's friend and thus, did not directly throw him on the floor. Instead, he flung him towards the sofa.

　　Yue Minghe was not surprised at Sui Yuan's reaction. He extended a hand to break his fall as he landed on the sofa, thereby lessening the force of impact his body had against the furniture. Soon after, he propped himself up on his elbows as he casually lay on his back. He raised his eyes to stare at Sui Yuan. The small smile on his lips did not change even in the slightest.

　　In contrast, Sui Yuan was very perturbed. He covered the area on his neck that had been 'disrespected' by the other and stiffly widened the eyes that the original character usually kept narrowed enticingly into big circles. An ineffable purity and childishness leaked out of him.

　　Yue Minghe was evidently pleased with Sui Yuan's expression. He raised his hand to cover his mouth as he coughed gently, as if trying to stop himself from smiling, "What's the matter? It's rare to see you so…shy. Haven't you long since been used to this kind of thing?"

　　Sui Yuan had just barely managed to collect his character's wits. He rudely glared at the other with a ferocious gaze, "Used to it? How can it even be the same?! Females and males are on opposite sides of the spectrum!" Pausing for a moment, he added powerlessly, "In the future, don't make this kind of joke anymore."

　　"What if I said that I wasn't joking, ne?"The smile in Yue Minghe's eyes vanished, his expression turning serious, "Didn't you always ask if I liked you?"

　　"You said you didn't," Sui Yuan knitted his eyebrows.

　　"That was because I didn't dare say the truth," Yue Minghe stood up and walked towards Sui Yuan. Sui Yuan fought the desire to take a step back. He stared at Yue Minghe with vigilance and warning.

　　Who knew if Sui Yuan's warning worked, or if Yue Minghe himself didn't want to step out of line again, but the latter stopped before he invaded Sui Yuan's personal s.p.a.ce. He helplessly spread out his hands, "Look, if I told you, you would have acted like you acted now…perhaps, we couldn't even stay friends."

　　Yue Minghe's expression was extremely depressed and grieved. It fit his delicate and handsome face and simply turned the hearts of everyone who saw him soft like cotton. Even if one had to give up everything they owned, they would still want to coax this person until he was happy again. Unfortunately, Sui Yuan was cold-hearted by nature. Aside from having his hair stand on end, he did not have any other feelings, "Since you're worried about that, you should have never said it."

　　"However, I obviously overestimated my own ability to endure," Yue Minghe's expression became ambiguous as he gazed at the b.u.t.tons Sui Yuan had yet to b.u.t.ton up. His eyes flitted over his exposed collarbone, expression meaningful.

　　Sui Yuan："…………………………"

　　After silently b.u.t.toning it up to the top which was unlike how the original character usually did it, Sui Yuan ignored Yue Minghe's slightly regretful gaze and showed a grave expression, "As you've opened up this topic, then I'll speak frankly. I'm sorry but I can't accept men. If you still want to remain friends, then we can't continue on this path."

　　Yue Minghe's expression changed slightly, but he didn't seem to be deterred by Sui Yuan's direct and efficient rejection, "You can't accept it? Really can't accept it? I don't think so. Your reaction was clearly not of someone who dislikes men getting close to him."

　　Sui Yuan："…………………………"

　　——Hehe, that was just a reflection of his habits that had been created by Zhao Xihe! Every time they were together, Zhao Xihe would get fresh with him, OK?!

　　He really didn't know how Zhao Xihe will feel when he finds out that his previous integrity-less actions have benefited someone else while he himself got nothing out of it….

　　Only, although he understood what the other was implying, Sui Yuan absolutely could not admit it, "I don't understand what you mean."

　　"…OK, ba," Yue Minghe stared at Sui Yuan, whose expression was tense, and compromised, not pressuring him to continue on this subject matter, "Actually, there isn't much of a difference between men and women. Perhaps you could try it out and see if you can accept it…."

　　"There's a big difference, OK?!" Sui Yuan interrupted Yue Minghe's words, "With a woman, I'm the one topping! If I'm with a man…will you be willing to let me top you?!"

　　Yue Minghe stared at him blankly. Soon after, he smiled indulgently, "OK, ah. If that's what you wish, anything is good. I don't mind being on top or on the bottom."

　　Sui Yuan："…………………………"

　　——WTF, I'm unexpectedly speechless right now!

　　After a moment of silence, Sui Yuan cast a complicated look at Yue Minghe, "Sorry, I don't think I can get hard even if I'm on top."

　　Yue Minghe："…………………………"

　　5237: "Stupid host! Is your integrity still intact?! Quickly put it back together! Yingyingying…my pure and kindhearted host has been completely led astray by Zhao Xihe. QAQ"

　　Sui Yuan："……You, shut up!"

　　Seeing the dumbfounded Yue Minghe, although his integrity had already been smashed to pieces, Sui Yuan couldn't help but feel a subtle happiness from finally having the pressure lifted off of him. He walked to the door leading out of the lounge and briefly brushed past Yue Minghe, patting him on the shoulder, "So, give up, ba. If you don't raise this issue again, we can still be good brothers."

　　Yue Minghe turned to look at Sui Yuan and revealed a bitter smile, "I already gave you my heart, how can I take it back, ne?"
