Transmigrated as My Best Friend's Ex

146. We Are Passionately in Love

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

“Are you free now? I want to talk to you.” Nancheng Yunsen came to the door of Li Qinghao’s bedroom with his eyebrows knitted together. Although he seemed to be asking for Li Qinghao’s agreement, his serious expression showed that he was determined to have a talk with Li Qinghao.

Li Qinghao put down the laptop and looked thoughtfully at Nancheng Yunsen. After a short while, he chuckled and asked, “What drives you to talk to me? I’m just a minor.”

Li Qinghao was frank and had an acute mind. Nancheng Yunsen rolled his eyes at Li Qinghao and said, “I have an expensive bottle of red wine. Would you like to come to my room and have a taste?”

With a smile, Li Qinghao refused, “Bro, you should know minors are not allowed to drink.”

Nancheng Yunsen’s lips twitched. Was this guy playing hard to get?

“But anyway, you are Lie’s brother. For his sake I will have a drink with you. Do you think so, bro?”  Li Qinghao slowly climbed out of bed and put on his shoes. He was so slow that Nnancheng Yunsen had an impulse to beat him up. Nancheng Yunsen was known to be a man who even sought revenge for the smallest grievance. “You are right, Xu. We will…”

“Don’t forget it’s you who wants to talk to me.” Li Qinghao reminded him.

Nancheng Yunsen bit back the words he would like to have said. He resisted the impulse to answer back and came up to Li Qinghao. Then he put his hand on Li Qinghao’s shoulder and said, “Can you tell me if I have offended you?” Li Qinghao had never taken the initiative to provoke people. Why did he behave so aggressively today?

Li Qinghao thought for a while. He remembered that Nancheng Yunsen often teased Nancheng Lie in this way. It seemed interesting. So he took the opportunity to do the same thing to Nancheng Yunsen tonight. It felt great indeed to bully people.

“You didn’t offend me. It’s just because I’m in a good mood today,” Li Qinghao replied with a smile. “By the way, bro, are you here just to give me a lesson in children’s ideological education?”

‘He’s in a good mood, so he made fun of me. It’s ridiculous!’ Nancheng Yunsen thought to himself. He stopped talking, directly carried Li Qinghao on his shoulders and walked into his own bedroom. Then he threw Li Qinghao on the sofa and opened a bottle of red wine. “Come on, have a drink with me.”

Li Qinghao took the wine glass from Nancheng Yunsen and slowly shook the red wine around in it. He seldom drank alcohol. To be honest, whatever wine he drank, it was all the same to him. He was not a good judge of wine. But considering that Nancheng Yunsen seemed in a bad mood today, Li Qinghao gave in.

After a few sips of red wine, Li Qinghao glanced at Nancheng Yunsen, who still remained silent, and asked in a concerned tone, “What do you want from me, bro? An answer that can help you make up your mind?”

This guy was really an observant person.

Nancheng Yunsen lounged on the sofa and squinted at Li Qinghao earnestly.

Li Qinghao maneuvered his body into a more comfortable position, completely ignoring Yunsen’s gaze.

There was a dead silence in the room. Yunsen furrowed his brows.

“You and Lie… Don’t you feel that something is amiss?” After a long hesitation, Nancheng Yunsen finally raised the subject. “You two used to be best friends, but have now become a couple. Don’t you feel embarrassed?”

Hearing this, Li Qinghao raised his head and studied Nancheng Yunsen’s face carefully.

A shadow of a smile formed on Li Qinghao’s lips, which made Nancheng Yunsen a little nervous. He was afraid that Li Qinghao had seen through his mind. “Why are you looking at me like that? Can’t I show concern for my brother?”

With a smile, Li Qinghao shook his head and answered, “I know you are a good brother. You can of course show concern for your younger brother.”

“Then why are you looking at me like that?”

“You already asked me about the detail of my relationship with Lie the other day.” Li Qinghao’s slow, flat voice made Nancheng Yunsen’s heart beat fast. It was certainly not because he was enchanted by Li Qinghao. ‘This guy is so smart that he seems to have guessed my secret,’ Nancheng Yunsen thought to himself.

“It’s Lei Wen, isn’t it?” asked Li Qinghao.

Nancheng Yunsen quickly denied, “I don’t understand you.”

‘God! If he knows that Lei Wen adores me, I will lose face,’ he thought.

Although in the hospital Lei Wen didn’t confess his love directly, Nancheng Yunsen understood what he meant. Realizing Lei Wen’s love, he promptly found an excuse and left. After walking out of Lei Wen’s ward, his breathing became heavy. It was so horrible. They had been friends for so many years, but he had never found that Lei Wen adored him.

Nancheng Yunsen felt a cold shiver at the thought that they had shared the same bed when they were students. He wondered if Lei Wen had harboured sinful thoughts at that time.

“Bro, you want to ask me if two persons can adapt to the change when they suddenly convert from friends to lovers, right? Judging from your words and actions, I guess that this question is closely related to your situation now. Recalling what happened in the hospital today, I conclude that it’s all because of Lei Wen.”

“You are smart.”

“In fact…” Li Qinghao paused for a moment. He shook the wine around in his glass and took a sip. “Before I adopted to the change, I found that Lie was more than a friend to me. After realizing that, we deservedly became lovers. So, if you ask me if I feel embarrassed or is unable to adopt to the change, my answer is no. I grew up with him. I… I have been accustomed to his company.” That was why he readily accepted Nancheng Lie as his future spouse.

“I can’t understand.”

“Alright, let me give you one quick example.”

“Don’t treat me as a child.” Nancheng Yunsen was at a loss whether to cry or to laugh.

“Bro, you like women, and have a sexual desire for women, don’t you?”

“What do you mean by that? Don’t look down on me! I had sex with women several times yesterday.” He was excellent in bed.

“Do you have a sexual desire for men?” asked Li Qinghao.

Nancheng Yunsen denied without hesitation, “No! How could it be possible?” He was not gay.

“Okay, bro, now imagine Lei Wen is standing naked in front of you or having sex with you in bed. Do you have the feeling of nausea?”

“Er…” Nancheng Yunsen hesitated.

Li Qinghao got an answer from Nancheng Yunsen’s hesitation. He stood up and picked up the bottle of red wine that they hadn’t finished yet. “Bro, I want this bottle of wine.”

“No way!” Nancheng Yunsen came back to his senses. He stopped Li Qinghao and explained, “There are no more than 10 bottles of this kind of wine in the world. I have only two bottles. If you take away this one, I’ll have only one left. What’s more, I know you don’t like to drink.”

Li Qinghao pushed Nancheng Yunsen aside and said, “Your dear younger brother likes to drink. By the way, do you know that drunkards often do something crazy? Your mind is now in a turmoil. If you get drunk, I’m afraid that you will run to the hospital and do something crazy.”

“You…” Nancheng Yunsen choked up. He paused for a while and said,”Since you know that, how dare you let him drink?”

“Bro, we are passionately in love now. We need the wine to add to the fun.”

“Nonsense!” Nancheng Yunsen picked up his glass and wanted to throw it at Li Qinghao. But considering that the wine glass was a little expensive, he thought for a while and gave up helplessly. After all, it seemed a pity to break such an expensive glass.

He put down the glass, lost in thought. ‘Xu’s words have enlightened me. Will I feel sick if I have sex with Lei Wen? The answer is no. Lei Wen is well-built. I guess he has excellent sex skills. Besides, he has fair, smooth skin. Damn it! I’m a little sexually excited at the thought that we might convert from friends to lovers. I even feel that the very blood in my veins is boiled,’ Nancheng  Yunsen thought to himself.

When Li Qinghao returned to the bedroom, Nancheng Lie just came out of the bathroom after a bath.

Nancheng Lie only wore a towel around his waist. Water dripped from his wet hair. Apparently, he didn’t blow-dry his hair yet. Li Qinghao’s eyes lit up. He fixed his eyes on Nancheng Lie’s bare chest with interest. Nancheng Lie’s bronze-coloured skin looked very sexy. Lights reflected off his moist, bare chest creating a gently luminescence.

“Uh-huh.” Feeling embarrassed, Nancheng Lie gave a little cough.

‘Xu has never looked at me like this before. His gaze doesn’t arouse me; instead, I feel uneasy. Is he mad at me? Have I done something wrong?’ Nancheng Lie thought to himself.

“Er, is there anything wrong with my chest?”

“Yes.” Li Qinghao walked towards Nancheng Lie. As Li Qinghao came close step by step, Nancheng Lie backed up continuously until he felt the wall against his back. “Are you going to duck into the bathroom? Uh-huh?” Li Qinghao asked.

“No,” Nancheng Lie answered hastily. In fact, he wanted to say yes.

“Don’t move.”

“Don’t… Don’t move?” Nancheng Lie quickly stood to attention.

Nancheng Lie’s erect posture amused Li Qinghao. “Close your eyes.”

“Yes, sir.” Nancheng Lie did as he was told, just like a docile pet dog.

Nancheng Lie’s obedience pleased Li Qinghao . He poured some drops of red wine on Nancheng Lie’s naked chest. Nancheng Lie had a keen touch. His heart raced uncontrollably. “Xu, don’t cross the line,” he whispered in a hoarse voice. A strong smell of red wine assailed his nostrils. He had already guessed what Li Qinghao had spilled on his chest.

“Do you believe that drunkards often do something crazy?” With that, Li Qinghao stuck out his tongue and licked Nancheng Lie’s chest.

“What… What crazy things?” Nancheng Lie’s breathing became irregular.

“Something that can make you happy.”
