Chapter 73

Nada said calmly, "I won't, don't worry."

 He said, signaling with his eyes for him to keep drinking.

 David hesitated, but held his glass and continued to drink.

 Nada went and brought over two more bottles.

 David burps and says, "You really can't drink too much, you can't get it up."

 Nada says, "Drink some more, I'm nervous about you being sober right now."

 David gives you one of those "I can't really do anything about you" looks from Nada, sighs, and says, "Fine."

 The more he drank, the redder his face became, and when he drank the third bottle, he finally couldn't hold the glass steady, and it fell to the ground with a bang.

 David said in a slightly slimy voice, "I have to pee, where's the toilet."

 He said, as he stood up and headed for the restroom.

 Nada followed, held him up, "Are you drunk?"

 David denied, "I'm not drunk, but I don't want to drink anymore, I want to pee."

 Nada smiled at his denial instead, and he said in a soft tone, "Okay, no more."

 Nada helped David to go to the toilet, David's hands were not good at unzipping his pants, Nada helped him to unzip his pants, and then she helped him to finish the toilet because she was afraid that he might not be able to get it right.

 David looked down at Nada's soft brow, his heart stirred, and he smiled, saying, "Honey, you look great."

 Nada lifted his pants for him and lifted her thin eyelids to look at him, "You're handsome too."

 David pressed him between the walls, the hot breath coming out rolling, scalding, "O wife."

 Nada looked at his face, it seems that because of the wine, David's eyes have become deep and affectionate, Nada was looked at like this, his body was hot, especially David also pressed him very tightly, in his hand was Qin Zhong's broad and hot chest.

 Just then, David suddenly said, "Honey, can you bite it for me?"

 Nada: "..."

 David commiserated, "You haven't even bitten it for me, I don't even know what it feels like."

 Nada smiled weakly and said, "So get out first, okay?"

 David dutifully followed Nada out of the bathroom and was pushed onto the bed again.

 David half propped himself up to look at him, his eyes a little confused, "What are you doing?"

 Nada said, "Guess what I'm doing?"

 David watched as he sat down on his lap, hiccupped, leaned back, flattened himself on the bed, and muttered, "Oh, you're going to navel-gaze me again."

 "Ride on, ride on, treat me like a horse, just ride on."

 Nada: "..."

 Nada said, "I'm riding you 'again'? When have I ever ridden you?"

 David gave a start, froze, suddenly braced himself and said, "Are you my wife?"

 As he said that, he came closer to Nada, both eyes almost in pairs, before he said with certainty, "You're my wife, heh heh heh."

 Nada was sure David was really drunk now.

 Nada asked in a soft tone, "You haven't answered my question? Have I ridden you before?"

 He was afraid that David hadn't heard him, so he asked slowly, speaking word for word.

 David got aggravated, "What's the matter, you don't recognize it?"

 Nada said, "I haven't ridden you."

 David said, "No, you did! And you almost broke my Jill the first time you sat on it!"

 Nada asked tentatively, "When was this? Why don't I remember?"

 David thought hard and deep, "It was a snowy day when Sister Xianglin lost her baby ..."

 Nada: "..."

 Do you even have to be this stupid when you're drunk?

 Nada says, "When was that? I still don't remember."

 David gave Nada an exasperated look, "You're always like this! You can't even remember our anniversary! Can't remember your own birthday either! And you have the nerve to ask me when, when I've been ridden to the point of calling the doctor, and you still say you can't remember!"

 With that, he burst into tears, "You don't even care about me!!!"

 Nada: "..."

 The knot in Nada's throat slid slightly as she stared into David's face and asked with extra seriousness, "When did we get married, and how come I didn't know?"

 David slapped the bed, "Well wow, you don't even remember when we got married! We got married on October 1, 2015! I even stopped by to help you celebrate your birthday on our honeymoon in October! If I hadn't sneaked a look at your ID, I wouldn't have even known your birthday was in October! You don't say it yourself, you don't care, you're so cold-blooded and heartless to yourself!"

 Nada: "..."

 David stared at him and choked, "What, no more talking? I think you need to reflect deeply on yourself! Always so cold and heartless, I don't even know if you like me or not!"

 David said, "I'm really so pathetic oooh, you don't even care about me!"

 Nada was breathing a little hard, he struggled to steady himself and moved over to hug him, saying softly, "No, I don't not care about you and of course I like you a lot, if I didn't like you, could I have slept with you?"

 David paused, "Really?"

 Nada said, "Really, if I didn't like you, could I have slept with you? If I didn't like you, I wouldn't have been able to marry you at all."

 David said, "But my dad forced you to marry me."

 Nada: "?"

 David said, "It's not like you married me because you like me, it must have been my father who forced you to marry me."

 Nada blinked, lowered her voice, and asked softly, "Why do you think your father made me do it? Couldn't it have been me who volunteered?"

 Confused, David said, "How could it be consensual, I went away to college and didn't see you before I married you."

 Nada: "..."

 Nada's head was now full of questions.

 David paused again and muttered, "No, I'm not studying abroad right now, I'm studying at ... what was it again?"

 Nada answered for him, "You're studying at Tsinghua now."

 David nodded once, "Yes, it's Tsinghua!"

 He got up joyfully, "I went to Tsinghua, this school is great, hehehehehehe."

 David remembered something again, red-faced, with a serious face, said, "I'm at least a Tsinghua University student now, not the ordinary price anymore, sleep with you again at night, you have to increase the money!"

 Nada was eager in her heart, but it didn't show on her face at this moment, slowly conversing with David, "Why should I add money?"

 David said, "Three hundred a night is too little, I'm out of Tsinghua University now, can you justify not raising the money?"

 Nada: "... And how much do you want to add?"

 David said gleefully, "At least double it, right? Six hundred."

 Nada suddenly responded, "When you said three hundred a night as a duck, you were sleeping with me?"

 David lamented, "Hey, it's all manual labor for three hundred dollars, Nada, you have no heart!"

 Nada: "..."

 Grassed, Nada was having a hard time keeping from speaking foul, to the point where, as shocking as the speculation might be, there was no chance it was the truth, and he asked in a hushed voice, "David, how old are you now, anyway?"

 David stared at him blankly, his eyes once again watering and soon, shedding crystalline teardrops, "I can't believe you forgot how old I am! Grass! Divorce!!!"

 Nada: "..."

 David saw that he wasn't talking and held back another tear, choking out, "... I'm kidding."

 He hiccuped in aggravation and said, "I'm 27 years old."

 Nada took a deep breath, he kind of got it now.

 David has the prophecy of the next ten years, or rather, he is the one who came back from ten years.

 David saw that he didn't say anything and hurriedly hugged up and kissed Nada on the mouth, "Honey, I'm just kidding you, don't get mad, okay?"

 Nada sighed and said, "I'm not mad."

 Nada looks at him, "Do you want to sleep?"

 David's vision was already a little blurry, and he was getting double vision looking at Nada, and he asked in a slurred voice, "Can you raise the money?"

 Nada: "... plus."

 David said shyly, "Double it, will you? I'm a Tsinghua scholar now, my value has to go up."

 Nada: "..."

 Looking at David's drunken demeanor, it's clear that he only remembers the things that affected him the most, and I'm afraid the resentment runs deep as he mentions three hundred a night more than once.

 Nada took a breath and smiled slightly, "How about nine hundred a night?"

 David did the math and was content, "Yeah, nine hundred bucks, sure enough learning makes you rich."

 "..." Nada coaxed him, "Go to sleep."

 David said, "Come and do it."

 He hemmed and hawed and whispered, "I'll give you a discount today, three hundred would be great!"

 Nada thought that was a really weird image.

 Still, he nodded and said, "Then I thank you very much."

 David took the money, shyly undressed, revealing his beautiful pecs, and said boldly and exuberantly and enthusiastically, "Come on, come and play with me."

 The next day, David woke up with a headache, and when he had slowed down for a few seconds and had a few moments of clarity, he subconsciously lifted the covers to look, and Nada said next to him, "Don't worry, it's not broken."

 David breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head to see Nada, it doesn't matter if you don't look, a look shocked, "Grass, stars, how ... do you look like this ghost.

 He swallowed back the last five words and said instead, "Why are you so beautiful."

 To his eyes, Nada looked miserable with her eyes black and blue and full of fatigue.

 David can't even begin to imagine how intense the battle was last night to get Nada into this mess.

 Nada asks, "Do I look terrible?"

 David opens his eyes and says, "No, it's still pretty! So good my eyes hurt!"

 Nada sat up, the covers slipping off, and David saw the large hickey on his beautifully bare spine, the knot in his throat sliding a few times, a little chagrined that he was so drunk that he didn't remember any of it.

 Nada gave him a look, "Get up."

 There was a pause, and a pretty hand reached out to David, three bills cupped in it.

 David gave a start and looked up at Nada, who gave him a slight smile, "Three hundred a night, discounted price for a clear duck."

 David: "..."

David's mind was now blank, what three hundred?What was Nada talking about?

 Why did you give him money? He's dreaming back to his former self?

 No. ... Tsinghua Duck? Tsinghua Duck! Tsinghua Duck!!!

 David's scalp went numb, and he said, "What are you talking about, I don't understand."

 Nada threw the money in front of him and smiled, "Why can't you understand? Aren't you treating yourself like a duck? Qinghua ducks have to go up in value, nine hundred discounted to three hundred for me, I really thank you."

 David's voice faded, "Hahahahaha looks like I talked shit yesterday, Star don't take it to heart."

 Nada: "Really, I don't believe that's what's in your heart, that's why you're drunk."

 David: "..."

 Nada said, "So you sleep with me as a job, is that it?"

 David's voice is getting weaker and weaker, "Star you listen to my explanation, I'm self-deprecating, if I'm a duck, I'm such a big and good-looking guy, at least 10,000 a night!"

 Nada said, "Oh, so you're saying you're undercharged, do you want me to give you another 9,700?"

 "..." David whispered, "I mean, I served you with the dedication of a duck, you see, you got ten thousand dollars worth of service for three hundred, you're making a killing."

 Nada watched as he went further and further off the rails, which would have pissed off any normal person, but he was feeling calm now, and wanted to laugh a little, and he held back, "So it's still a sale, is it?"

 David: "..."

 David couldn't wait to call Shi Yan Yu on the spot for a little help.

 What should he say at a time like this!

 David went silent and Nada said, "Why don't you say something?"

 David asked with a caring face, "Star how is your body now? Did I hurt you last night? Let me see if there is any swelling."

 What a diversionary tactic.

 Nada smiled slightly, "We didn't do it yesterday."

 David: "?"

 Then why are you acting like this?

 The word didn't come out of David's mouth, just a subtle expression of doubt with his eyes.

 Nada sighed quietly and said, "I've had insomnia, I've been up all night, I can't figure out why you think you're a duck, and sleeping with me would be the deal, haven't you ever had a good time?"

 David's scalp tingled again, had he known he wouldn't drink!

 Nada asks, "Should I pay you for all the previous sleepovers in one fell swoop?"

 David closed his eyes once and dryly admitted his mistake, "I was wrong! I'm really wrong, Star, just forgive me!"

 Nada said, "Really know it's wrong, or fake know it's wrong?"

 David wept in his heart and spoke in a hushed tone, "Really, I'm really wrong, I'm the one who should be paying you, I'm the one who got it right, I'm terribly wrong!"

 Nada: "Pay me? You treat me like a duck? And you're going to pay me for my johns? So capable."

 David: "..."

 David choked and immediately changed his tune, "I was wrong, wrong to taint our pure love with money! Wrong in getting a bargain! Good stars, wife, you forgive me!"

 Nada exhaled and said, "Well, I forgive you."

 David looked at his face, afraid to speak, and after a moment said, "Star, did you really lose sleep all night over this?"

 Nada: "Uh-huh."

 David heart guilty, but he is not really take himself as a duck ah, well, the previous generation is indeed Nada want, he will sleep with him, and also does have so a little to earn pocket money, but also based on pleasing Nada's basis ah, if he really take himself as a duck, he more or less have to bargain with Nada, not Nada happy to give as much as you can give as much as you can.

 Oops, I blame him for running his mouth.

 David hadn't realized that he had drunkenly shaken one of his biggest secrets clean out of him, and in fact he hadn't thought about telling Nada about his rebirth up to that point, because he was a little ashamed of his former self to say the least.

 Shame on me for not getting to know Nada, shame on me for complaining so much about him, shame on my own ego.

 He had missed Nada so much in his previous generation, it was only right that he should cherish Nada in this life.

 Nada got up and told him, "Get up."

 David looked at his beautiful body covered in hickeys, even his hips were heavily fingerprinted, and couldn't help but ask, "You really didn't do it yesterday?"

 Nada glanced back at him and cocked her head slightly, her red lips pulling up into a smile as she said, "If coming out softly counts."

 David: "... didn't do it?"

 Nada said, "You're right, navel oranges are too difficult, next time do it when you're sober."

 Grass, David said shyly, "... Thank you."

 Nada heard him say thank you and knew what he meant - thank him for not sitting off a few of his handles.

 How psychological is that?

 Nada lost sleep all night thinking about what David had said.

 Once you connect the dots between what he said and what he did, it seems like all those doubts that were there in the beginning were answered.

 Why hadn't he met David before, David had been able to call him by his name the first time he saw him. He remembered that the first time David had met him, he had said old (), and now he understood that the word after that was mother-in-law, wife.

 Why David transferred to Nanyang; why David was so heartfelt and sincere with him; why David cried bitterly about him, and why David liked to laugh by himself ...

 He was able to push out another story from David's mere words.

 What would have happened to him if he hadn't had David, and in the midst of that, meeting David again and getting married without a relationship foundation.

 Nada actually doubted the authenticity, after all, such things were too sci-fi, but it was the only possibility that answered his doubts.

 He listened to those words of David's, and there was an emotion in his heart that stood out - even with a do-over, David still chose him.

 David came to him anyway.

 David says he doesn't even know if he likes him or not, and Nada thinks she can answer that she should.

 If they were the same person, they would still like the same person even if their experiences were different.

 People also have the instinct to gravitate towards light, and David is that light, and if he had been through all that, he would have been more addicted to the warmth that the light brings.

 Just like he is now, he too is still drawn to David, his eyes are fixed on him, his joys and sorrows are all about him.

 It's true that he's attracted to David, it's true that he likes him, and it's true that he wants to spend the rest of his life with him.

 Knowing his secret would only make Nada appreciate him more.

 Thank him for coming to him even though his former son didn't communicate well and wasn't sure if he liked him or not.

 Thank him for still being able to offer a piece of his heart to himself.

 Nada got dressed and asked in a sincere tone, "Want me to bite it for you?"

 David: "????"

 David was shocked, "What?"

 Nada averted her gaze and said in a mock calm voice, "I won't say it again."

 David: "!!! To! I want!!!"

 So excited? Looks like the previous generation didn't try it.

 Nada said, "Evening, now I'm tired."

 David said shyly, "You rest well, but what flavor do you want, pineapple for you? Or strawberry? You pick a flavor I'll just eat this all day today."

 Nada: "... pineapple?"

 Nada said seriously, "If it wasn't for the smell of pineapple, I'd rip your head off."

 David looked horrified, "Which, which head?"

 Nada: "..."

 Nada looked at him carefully, David s clear eyes how it is hard to believe that he is a 27 year old man ... No, another year has passed, at least 28.

 Almost thirty and still so stupid ... Maybe that's how men are teenagers until they die.
