"I like Qui Yuan"

[Ehhh?!!]

It struck Jinli's heart in an instant, as a rotten fujoshi it was a painful scenario for her, she knew that she was the homewrecker but she really didn't want to get in the way.

DICCU: Hey! Your thoughts are contradicting the system!

Min Jiwoo slightly grabbed Jiang Rui's collar then he whispered something that only the two of them could hear. He knew that Qui Yuan was hiding at the corner.He slowly took a step forward to surprise the hiding male.

"How are you? What are you doing there?"

Qui Yuan sprang from his stance that he almost fell on the ground. "H-Hello!" he exclaimed, rubbing the back of head. Min Jiwoo reached out his arms to help Qui Yuan stand "Are you waiting for me?" he asked

Qui Yuan blushed and stiffened like some hair crawled up to his nape "Y-Yeah!!" he blurted out unconsciously

"Let's go!" Min Jiwoo pulled his wrist towards him. They were about to walk away when suddenly someone pulled back Qui Yuan. It was Jiang Rui, helding the other male's wrist.

"J-Jiang Rui?!" Qui Yuan exclaimed

Min Jiwoo smirked "Rui? What's wrong?" he asked tightening the grip on the other male's arms

Jiang Rui froze for a minute, he couldn't comprehend the words inside his mind. While Qui Yuan was still looking at him with a puzzled face.

His gaze went down to the two hands intertwined in front of him, his chest suddenly burn up like he was going to have his fever again "N-Nevermind!" he exclaimed, turning away from them.

Qui Yuan quickly reached out his other hand"R-Rui!" he called out, but the male was already far away from them. Somehow, he felt a little bit sad.

"Are you worried about him?"

Qui Yuan quickly nodded his head, responding to his best friend's question. Min Jiwoo told him to stop worrying, instead they went to the School Clinic to ask for the nurse's advice on Jiang Rui's fever. The School nurse told them to stop worrying because Jiang Rui was already recovering from his light fever.

"Man! The weather's such a troublesome" Qui Yuan screamed in his thoughts

He was holding a bag of two loaf breads, the supermarket was just a walking distance from their house but because of the bad weather, he was now soaked in rain. He stooped and waited for the red light to cross the street.

Suddenly, while he was hugging himself to warm his body up, an umbrella hovered above him, it caused Qui Yuan to look up.

He jolted after seeing the male that was now the one who was soaked. "Jiang Rui!!?? What are you doing here?" he exclaimed

The other male hurriedly diverted his eyes "I-I was just p-passing by, and I suddenly saw you" he mumbled

Qui Yuan frowned the moment he noticed the band aid on Jiang Rui's nose "Did you fight again?" he scolded

Jiang Rui clicked his tongue "It's not your business" he snorted, he grabbed the male's hand to let it hold the umbrella but Qui Yuan pushed it back to him "You need this, my house is just a distance from here!" he snorted

"I-I don't need-- whatever! Just take it!" Jiang Rui walked away but Qui Yuan managed to grab the hem of his shirt. The male just glared at him "What?!" he snarled

"M-My house! You can stop by my house until the rain subsides!"

Jiang Rui ended up going to Qui Yuan's house, he had no choice because the rain suddenly went heavier.

"You can take a seat" Qui Yuan welcomed him as they both head to the kitchen

Jiang Rui roamed his eyes around the area, the kitchen was not small, nor big either. It was enough for a medium family.

"Please make yourself feel at home, my mom is not here, she got work" Qui Yuan said after putting in the loaf of bread he bought a while ago. Then he glanced back at Jiang Rui "You need something?"he asked

Jiang Rui just blinked his eyes and then he scanned the male that was now wearing a simple shirt and knee length short. "N-Nothing…" he uttered

Qui Yuan looked at him with surprise then he chuckled "Why are you so nervous? I will not eat you here, I will never do horrible things to you" he said

Jiang Rui's cheeks turned red in an instant, seeing the other male laugh was cute for him "O-Okay.." he replied nervously

'BREAKMETER RAISED TO 27%'

Jinli smirked secretly after hearing the breakmeter "Can he please stop looking at me like that? His shirt was wet and his abs are visible!!!" she yelled inside her mind

DICCU: Such a pervert

[Hey! I'm not! Let's stop pretending here]

DICCU: You have a point

"Jiang Rui? Do you want to..uhh.. C-Change y-your clothes?" Qui Yuan asked, the male didn't replied then he realized that Jiang Rui doesn't have any extra clothes

Qui Yuan quickly took the seat in front of Jiang Rui "Do you want to borrow my clothes? Although I'm not sure if it will fit you" he said with his beaming eyes

"I-I don't mind.." Jiang uttered with his calm and shy voice

The other male sprang up to his seat and then he aggressively grabbed Jiang Rui's wrist leading him upstairs, straight to his room. Qui Yuan will not hide his room to everyone, it was clean and organized; he was a girl before he was transmigrated.

"What do you think of my room?!" He was so proud of asking not until he noticed Jiang Rui's eyes that went straight to his study table. The BL books he read last night were still scattered there, widely opened.

His body swiftly dashed towards the table, closing the books one by one and throwing it inside the drawers "hehe..i-it's not mine" he uttered nervously

Jiang Rui tried to make a straight face, but deep inside he was laughing after finding out Qui Yuan's hobbies. He now knew the reason why the male was late sometimes or the reason for the black lines under his eyes.

"H-here! Try this one" Qui Yuan exclaimed, showing a sky-blue colored t-shirt towards Jiang Rui after dashing back to his closet.

Jiang Rui didn't respond back so Qui Yuan took it as a negative answer "Maybe I should find another one" then he hurriedly turned back

An idea came up to Jiang Rui's mind, he took a step towards the male who was busy scanning his closet.

"This one will suit--" Qui Yuan was stunned when Jiang Rui slammed his hand beside his head, he could feel the tension behind him. The other male leaned closer to his ears "Qui Yuan… Are you fantasizing about those books?" he whispered
