Everyday Life of a Dom Boyfriend

Translated by Neirith

Episode Eight – Everyone Passes By (2)

Xia Zhi was entirely confused by Ye Qia’s proposal. These organisms called ex-boyfriends jumped out from time to time as a proof of how stupid you were. If you didn’t need to mention them, then don’t mention them. There was absolutely no need to discuss them with your current boyfriend. To do so was to bring about your own doom!

He stared at Ye Qia, but found no signs that he was joking, so he asked suspiciously, “Are you serious?”

“Of course I’m serious.” Ye Qia replied calmly. “I think I should discuss my former boyfriends with you. After all, you’re a jealous man.”

“You’re jealous!” Xia Zhi retorted with a look of disdain, not knowing that he had actually spoken the truth. “Well then, tell me!”

“It’s not fair for me to be the only one.” Ye Qia said coolly, “So you have to tell me too.”

Xia Zhi became instantly disgruntled. “What the hell is up with your logic?”

“There should be no secrets between a man and his wife.”

“We are not man and wife.”

“Since you can’t give your husband any offspring, don’t you think you should be more forthcoming? As you can’t give birth, I can’t continue my bloodline, isn’t that right?”

Xia Zhi rolled his eyes. “What nonsense. If I have a kid, it’s definitely not yours! And if I gave birth to your bloodline, I’d be some sort of monster.”

Ye Qia fell into silence before he suddenly rose up, asking, “Then, do you want to have a kid?”

Xia Zhi was taken aback and immediately reacted. This was a code in the gay community, which generally referred to unprotected sex. As to how dangerous unprotected sex was, people who were not in the gay community probably had no idea.

The majority of the gay community basically had sexually transmitted diseases. The disease starting with the letter “A” was the one everyone was scared to mention. Men were easily swayed by their “little head,” and it was not uncommon for them to have a period of fervor that ended their lives. As a result, the phrase “have a kid” became synonymous with “unprotected sex.”

After living with Ye Qia for so long, Xia Zhi was still very well-behaved and brought a condom every time. Fortunately, Ye Qia was his equal in this respect. Of those gays who lived an ordinary life, most of them had acquired this habit. Despite feeling somewhat uncomfortable, they would withstood it for the sake of safety.

“Have you been examined?” Xia Zhi asked hesitantly.

“Find a time for us to get checked together.” Ye Qia instructed, “That way, we can save money as a packaged deal.”

Xia Zhi was moved and, after thinking about it, couldn’t resist the allure. “Okay, you go first.”

“I have four ex-boyfriends…”

Xia Zhi was shocked and blurted out, “Damn, so few!”

Ye Qia narrowed his eyes and continued, “Did you wish for me to have a lot of ex-boyfriends?”

“I thought you would have a lot.” Xia Zhi said dourly, “After all, your qualities are really good.”

Money was not necessarily the deciding factor among gays. Many times, a handsome face and strong body was irresistible. Ye Qia might seem fierce, but he still appeared proper, shrewd, and in control. Coupled with the fact that he was well-dressed, he was definitely a front runner in the gay community. That’s why Xia Zhi had said what he’d said.

“I’m pretty picky.” Ye Qia was too lazy to explain in detail, so he casually threw out his rationale while he conveniently brushed against Xia Zhi. “There’s one you’ve already met before. Sheng Le, the one who’s currently your best friend’s Master and boyfriend. I’ve heard they’re living together in harmony.”

Xia Zhi shuddered. He had heard that Jia Jia had been forced to go to the toilet several times a day. If he didn’t go to the toilet on time, he would be punished. When he thought about this, he found it difficult to understand. However, Jia Jia seemed to take pleasure in this, and constantly broke the rules in order to be punished for a cycle of endless delight. 

“Don’t talk about those perverts.”

“Right, well, in terms of order, Sheng Le was the fourth. The third was a pervert who was killed by his M. The second got too high during orgasm and suffocated during erotic asphyxiation.” Ye Qia calmly reported. “Only the first one, Ge Yue, is still alive.”

“…”

Xia Zhi felt awkward as Ye Qia laughed grimly. “Who is Ge Yue?”

Ye Qia seemed to be indifferent as he said nonchalantly, “He’s my first ex. You should have heard of him, the one who swindled me out of 400,000*.”
*I think the number was different in previous chapters, but I can’t be bothered to find the raws to corroborate

Although Xia Zhi was astonished for a short while, his face gradually shifted as he gave a hollow laugh. “Oh? He’s back?”

“I don’t know. Sheng Le said he saw him.”

Xia Zhi’s laughter immediately ceased as he said angrily, “What’s up with Sheng Le? Why does he know everything?”

“He’s one that is relatively fresh. At that time, I was changed, I was looking for a more down-to-earth type to spend my days with. We spent a lot of time together, so we know more about each other.” 

“Well fuck, he turned out that way and you still think he’s down-to-earth?”

“Yeah, after I broke up with him I realized that he wasn’t simple enough. That’s why I found you.”

“…”

“Don’t say any more!” Xia Zhi jumped up and shouted, “You’ll fucking hurt me!”

He ran into the bedroom and slammed the door before whisking out his cellphone and dialing Gourmand’s number. As soon as the line connected, he asked, “Do you have Sheng Le’s number?”

Gourmand’s voice was somewhat hazy, and it seemed he was not yet awake. “What?”

“Sheng Le. Ye Qia’s ex-boyfriend.”

“What are you going to do?” Gourmand appeared to have awakened. “I’m telling you, Ye Qia doesn’t bother with his ex-boyfriends…”

“That’s not it, Sheng Le said he saw Ge Yue.”

There was a brief moment of silence on the other end of the phone. “Then what? What are you planning to do?”

“I want to meet Ge Yue.”

“You’re going to find someone to beat him up?”

“Says who?” Xia Zhi was furious, “Don’t think I’m so brainless, okay? What am I going to do?! Just find someone to investigate his accounts, it’s more convenient! I don’t believe that he’s survived so long without encountering money issues! If he doesn’t have any problems, I can make some!”

There came a soft laughter from Gourmand’s side. “Okay, I got it. But this isn’t something you should care about. Ye Qia doesn’t like it.”

“Who said I have to tell Ye Qia…”

He had yet to finish speaking when the door suddenly opened. Ye Qia had one hand on the door and one hand on the phone as he entered, saying, “Alright, thank you. I’ll deal with him.” He hung up the phone and beckoned Xia Zhi. “Wang Ke called me. Someone told me you’re looking to trouble Ge Yue?”

Xia Zhi wordlessly hung up the phone and bowed his head as he sat on the bedside, as if confessing his guilt.

Ye Qia laughed in both anger and amusement. Although many years had passed, his friends still insisted on playing the “Test the New Boyfriend” game. Nevertheless, he had long forgotten Ge Yue. Ge Yue had indeed swindled him out of cash, but in terms of emotions, it was he who had been a little worse.

“I have no contact with Ge Yue, and I have no plans to see him again.” Ye Qia confessed, “It’s all in the past. I don’t want to involve you in this, understand?”

Even though his heart was unresigned, Xia Zhi knew Ye Qia was speaking the truth, so he nodded his head reluctantly. “I understand.”

“Right, it’s time for you to tell me about your ex-boyfriends.”

“Me?” Xia Zhi tried to recall what they were initially talking about and said, “Those I never slept with probably don’t count, so probably… seventeen?”

Ye Qia’s smile immediately froze on his face.
