Contractual Marriage: We’re Meant to Be Together

56. Do They Believe It?

Translator: Alanese Fantasy

Yan Chuyang shrank pitifully into a small mass in the noisy box, lying prone on the table with a red face and slept with a painful expression on his face.

Wei Qing sadly gritted his teeth and wanted to grab his troublemaker cousin to beat him up.

When Yan Chuyang got sober later, he had to sit down and talk to Yan Chuyang about this problem.

It was okay to make friends, but friends like Wei Yuan, who didn’t behave themselves, he was supposed to kick them away. Wei Qing would never let Yan Chuyang hang with people like Wei Yuan again.

“Cousin” Seeing that Wei Qing coming in angrily, Wei Yuan quickly stood up and leaned over slightly apprehensively, pointing at the corner of the table and saying, “Chuyang is there.”

Wei Qing glared at him and said in a gloomy voice, “I have eyes.” Wei Yuan cleared his throat, stood aside submissively to make a way forWei Qing.

Wei Qing walked up to Yan Chuyang, took off his suit jacket, draped it over Yan Chuyang casually and helped him up.

Yan Chuyang frowned uncomfortably. Whether it was because of discomfort or because of drinking too much wine, his fair face was incredibly red at the moment.

Wei Qing sighed and whispered into his ear, “It’s fine. Let’s go home. It’s not comfortable to sleep here, we can go home.”

After saying that, he put Yan Chuyang’s arm on his shoulder and held his waist, trying to carry him away.

As soon as he moved, Yan Chuyang woke up. He looked at the person in front of him with a confused expression and said in a very soft voice, “Wei Qing?”

Wei Qing replied, “It’s me.”

Yan Chuyang’s face stiffened and he struggled in a panic. “You… stay away from me.”

Wei Qing was confused, so he slightly loosened his hold of Yan Chuyang’s waist, and asked. “What’s wrong?”

Yan Chuyang shook his head and whispered, “They are my classmates. If someone sees you, they will misunderstand our relationship.”

Wei Qing turned his head to look; then he saw the group of students were playing cards concentratedly and didn’t look towards the small corner where the two of them were.

“It’s okay,” Wei Qing straightened the boy’s head and let Yan Chuyang lean on his shoulder. “How could someone misunderstand? I’m your brother and come to pick you up when you’re drunk. What’s wrong with that?”

“Not right!” Yan Chuyang shook his head in a daze and said softly, “Song Huaiqi misunderstood.”

Wei Qing’s face darkened, “He misunderstood?”

“Yep!” Yan Chuyang frowned anxiously and whispered into Wei Qing’s ear, “He thought we were in a relationship!”

“Oh,” Wei Qing said expressionlessly, “And then? Do you care about his misunderstanding?

Yan Chuyang nodded, “Of course I care!”

“Alright,” Wei Qing shrugged and suddenly bent down; then he directly hugged Yan Chuyang’s waist and carried him up.

The originally noisy room fell silent after seeing this scene.

Wei Yuan’s jaw was about to fall.

His cousin, who once avoided men like avoiding virus and would say that he would die in disgust when he saw two men walking together hand in hand, now was holding a man in his arms.

“Open the door!” Wei Qing walked to Wei Yuan and said impatiently.

Wei Yuan came to his senses and ran to the door in a hurry, opening the door and letting the two of them leave.

From the moment Yan Chuyang was forcefully picked up by Wei Qing, he stuck his head into Wei Qing’s arms and didn’t look up.

Wei Qing crammed Yan Chuyang into the passenger seat, opened the door on the other side and got into the car.

Yan Chuyang buried his head in the car seat and muttered to himself, “It’s bad, it’s bad…”

Wei Qing frowned and picked Yan Chuyang up to his lap. He pinched his chin and asked, “What are you doing? Why didn’t you look up?”

Yan Chuyang let out a long sigh and leaned down again as if he couldn’t bear to see anyone. He buried his face in Wei Qing’s chest and said, “Bad, it’s over. We must have been found out. I can’t go to school tomorrow.”

Hearing the panic in his words, Wei Qing patted him on the shoulder sadly, “What’s going on? What are you afraid of?”

Yan Chuyang lay in his arms and said in a muffled tone, “You held me in your arms just now. There are so many of my classmates in the private room. They must have guessed that I was married to you…”

“They won’t,” Wei Qing whispered into his ear, “They will think I’m your brother.”

“No!” Yan Chuyang clutched Wei Qing’s arm anxiously and said. “They must think that I’m in love with you. They must think that I’m a gay!”

“Don’t be afraid!” Wei Qing patted his back, “It’s no big deal.”

“It is a big deal!” Yan Chuyang raised his head and his wet eyes were full of horror. “No one in school is like me. If they knew that I am a gay, they would hate me, contradict me, and the school might expel me!”

Looking at Yan Chuyang’s helpless eyes, Wei Qing was so regretful that he wanted to slap himself.

How could he be so impulsive to pick Yan Chuyang up when he heard Song Huaiqi’s name?

He wouldn’t lose anything. At most, he would be criticized behind his back by others. During these years, because of his unreliable father, he had long been tired of hearing these criticisms.

But Yan Chuyang was different.

He was still so young and still in school. His life trajectory was much more normal than his. He had to face so many people’s eyes every day. But just now, he was so impulsive to broken the peace he maintained!

Wei Qing let out a long sigh with guilt and held Yan Chuyang’s shoulder. “Sorry, I was wrong. Don’t be afraid. I’ll call Wei Yuan now and ask him to explain to your classmates.”

After saying that, Wei Qing took out his phone and dialed a series of numbers.

“Hello?” Wei Yuan answered quickly, “Cousin? Is there anything else?”

“Wei Yuan, are you and your classmates still in the private room?”

Wei Yuan nodded, “Yes.”

Wei Qing lowered his voice, “Help me explain that I’m Yan Chuyang’s cousin. Yan Chuyang drank so much that he could barely walk, so I picked him up.”

Wei Yuan also lowered his voice and said, “Hey, there’s no need for you to tell me about this kind of thing. I’ve explained it.”

The gossip was so powerful, so it must be explained.

Wei Qing glanced at the person in his arms and whispered, “Do they believe it?”

“Of course they believe it,” Wei Yuan shrugged. “It’s not a big deal. If you two kissed, I definitely wouldn’t be able to cover it up, but a hug is simple to explain.”
