"Damn, no wonder you've been relentlessly pursuing that senior."
A wave of surprise swept through the crowd.
Qin Chu looked at Levi with some surprise.
He hadn't heard the term "brother" for a long time.
Qin Rui died too suddenly in the last world. Now, seeing Levi using Qin Rui's expression and affection to call him "brother," Qin Chu finally felt that Qin Rui had truly returned.
But... what followed was a strange feeling that made people uneasy.
Because Qin Rui wouldn't kiss him, nor would he dare to.
However, Levi's pheromones still lingered in his mouth, and before they could calm down, Levi kept calling him "brother"...
That is utterly rebellious.
It needs cleaning up.
The two words immediately popped into Qin Chu's mind, accompanied by an indescribable sense of shame.
“From now on…” Qin Chu turned his head away somewhat awkwardly, “Don’t call me that anymore.”
"Why?" Levy frowned instantly, his tone displeased.
Qin Chu wanted to go back and explain, but seeing Levi's expression, a thought struck him.
He suppressed his discomfort and said in a cold voice, "There's no reason why, I'm no longer your brother."
Levi was taken aback, clearly not expecting Qin Chu to say that.
Author's Note:
Ugh, I was so busy today!
Just as I was lying down, thinking of asking for a day off, I suddenly remembered that I seemed to have said yesterday that I was going to write about kissing.
I was afraid someone would want to beat me up if I skipped it, so I got up and wrote three thousand words.
I'm a bit stuck here, but I'll make do with this for now. I should be able to get to the point where they get through their heat cycle by tomorrow.
Chapter 109, Fifth Story (28)
"What do you mean?" Levi's relaxed smile faded, and he looked at Qin Chu seriously.
"That's exactly what I mean," Qin Chu said.
The ambiguous atmosphere between the two hadn't dissipated, and their pheromones still lingered on each other, but the atmosphere became slightly tense.
Those who had been joking earlier also noticed the change, and exchanged glances, wondering what was going on.
The military academy student who brought up Levi's dark history thought he had said something wrong and quickly tried to smooth things over: "Hey, that was a long time ago. You can call him whatever you want now. Getting married is the most important thing."
As he spoke, he frantically winked at Levi, "What are you arguing about with an Omega? If I don't tell you to call me 'brother,' then don't. Boyfriend or younger brother, don't you have any self-awareness?"
That's how it sounds at first glance, but Levy couldn't accept it.
Qin Rui was his past, a part of him. He had long since thoroughly absorbed Qin Rui's experiences and emotions. The period of his life raised by Qin Chu was the most beautiful gift he had received, something he wouldn't even dare to dream of in reality.
In his eyes, Qin Chu was his brother, his rival, his partner, and someone he never wanted to let go of for the rest of his life.
These identities are inseparable, and none can be abandoned.
Levi, who was still holding Qin Chu's hand, pulled Qin Chu to his feet and said, "Let's go outside to talk."
The moment Qin Chu left the sofa, Levi felt an itch in his palm. Qin Chu had written two words: Plan.
What plan...
Of course, it's a plan to lure the mastermind.
Levy suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
That scared him to death!
I thought Qin Chu was serious!
He glanced at Qin Chu, but continued to pull Qin Chu away.
Those sitting around them exchanged bewildered glances, unsure whether to offer some words of advice or leave the two of them alone.
After the two left the sofa, the smart garbage collector next to the coffee table started up and disposed of the plates and wine glasses they had left behind.
Levi didn't pull Qin Chu away, but stopped in a slightly quieter place.
He wrote in Qin Chu's palm: "Want to continue?"
“Continue arguing,” Qin Chu replied.
Levy couldn't help but curse under his breath.
This was indeed something he and Qin Chu had planned together, using the changes in their relationship to test the mastermind, which included the part of pretending to break up.
But... when it really came to this, Levi just wanted to curse his past self from a few days ago; who knows how he came up with this idea?
How can you be so cruel to start arguing right after a kiss?
Levi felt a pang of grievance and instinctively wanted to bury his head in Qin Chu's shoulder and rub against him, but the next second Qin Chu poked his palm, clearly urging him on.
Okay, let's argue...
“Why can’t I call you brother? You never said that before,” Levi said, his resentment growing stronger.
Qin Chu glanced at him, trying to find a way to start an argument: "Qin Rui is just my younger brother. We're not brothers anymore. Don't bring this up again..."
"Wait a minute." Levi interrupted him, a smile playing on his lips, but it was clearly a mocking smile. "You mean, now that we're together, we have to sever ties with our previous relationship?"
"Impossible." Levy was a little serious, but also a little flustered.
Qin Chu suddenly brought up this topic, and although he called it a "plan," Levy was still afraid that he was serious.
He looked at Qin Chu, his restlessness from the height of his fertile period subsiding slightly: "Qin Rui is also me. I have very few of these things in my life. I just want you to be my brother and also my lover."
“I’ll call you ‘darling,’ and I’ll call you ‘brother,’ in the studio, in public, and even in bed. I’m that greedy, you know?” Levy said.
What kind of nonsense is this?
Qin Chu's ears burned from his words, and she just wanted to slap him.
But if they actually fought, the argument would take a turn for the worse, so Qin Chu could only keep a straight face.
Qin Chu wanted to continue arguing, but when he opened his mouth, he found himself stuck.
Levy's interruption disrupted his train of thought, leaving him completely at a loss for how to continue the argument.
"Alright, let's stop arguing." Levi wrote words in Qin Chu's palm with his fingers. He just wanted to kiss and hug her, and he didn't want to argue at all.
Only when he moved did Qin Chu realize that they were still holding hands, and that this argument was completely insincere.
Qin Chu paused for two seconds and then withdrew his hand.
“You…” Levi grasped at empty air, completely dumbfounded.
Surely not? If they can't even hold hands, how can they have "private chats"?
“You are different from Qin Rui,” Qin Chu suddenly said.
“What’s different?” Levy retorted firmly.
Qin Chu glanced at him: "Qin Rui is just a child, he doesn't have those kinds of thoughts." He certainly wouldn't call someone "brother" in bed.
Levy was taken aback by these words, then laughed in anger.
He could tell that Qin Chu was telling the truth. It had nothing to do with the "plan"; Qin Chu genuinely felt that Qin Rui was just a simple child, and from the bottom of his heart, he regarded him as an older brother, without any other intentions whatsoever.
"You think Qin Rui has no feelings for you?" Levi moved closer, his smile frivolous. "Do you understand him better, or do I? Do you know what he was thinking when he tied your hair? Do you know what he was thinking when he climbed into your bed in the middle of the night? And do you know how many people he's secretly taught a lesson to when they had feelings for you?"
Qin Chu raised his eyebrows.
Putting aside everything else, Qin Chu was completely unaware that Qin Rui had secretly taught a lesson to someone who was interested in him.
As for anything else, he hadn't even thought about it.
In Qin Chu's mind, Qin Rui always carried the label of "child".
Although Qin Rui was already fifteen years old, and although fifteen-year-olds in that era were already married and had two children, in Qin Chu's heart, Qin Rui was still an absolute child.
Therefore, in this world, when Levi, who looked remarkably like Qin Rui, asked him for his contact information, Qin Chu immediately felt uncomfortable.
And now, Levy's words have torn open Qin Chu's long-held view.
"Don't talk nonsense." Qin Chu frowned, not quite accepting it, and was actually a little angry.
"Nonsense?" Levi chuckled briefly, then leaned close to Qin Chu's ear. "Then I'll tell you a secret: every time he finishes tying your hair, he takes a cold shower. Every time he gets off your bed, he hides in the side room to take care of things, and he has to be careful not to call out your name..."
grass.
Qin Chu's eyes widened in surprise.
He wanted to refute, but as Levy recounted his story, some details from the last world that he had overlooked gradually surfaced.
For example, Qin Rui would indeed suddenly go out at night and then come back in covered in a cold, damp mist. Another example is that one night he heard a muffled groan coming from the side room, thinking Qin Rui was injured, so he went to knock on the door but heard a flurry of activity inside…
“But you’re right about one thing: my opinion of you is a little different from his,” Levi said with a smile. “I want you to be my brother, and I also want you to be my boyfriend. But Qin Rui probably knows you’re already his brother, so… all he can think about is how to marry you.”
Qin Chu couldn't help but close his eyes.
Levy's words stirred up some memories for him.
When he finally took Qin Rui back to the capital, Qin Rui rode with him and slept on his shoulder.
He heard Qin Rui mumble something incoherently, seemingly asking if he could marry him. However, a soldier was reporting the situation at that moment, and the content of the question was so bizarre that Qin Chu immediately thought he must have misheard.
Unexpectedly...
Qin Chu looked at Levi, his feelings were very complicated.
On the one hand, he wasn't surprised; he even had the thought that "this guy never forgets to cause trouble in every world" and "even if he becomes a child, he can't change his ways."
on the other hand……
The shame that Qin Chu felt as Levi called him "brother" surged within him, making him wish he could drag Levi back in time and beat him up.
Levi's appearance is extremely similar to Qin Rui's; otherwise, Qin Chu wouldn't have recognized him at the first moment.
