Chapter 14: 8.1

Xiao Gege (1)

This sudden action surprised Xue Lan. He instinctively struggled against the other party’s hold, while the other person that just shouted gradually approached nearer.

Because of his struggles, that person pressed him against the wall and whispered in a low voice:

“Shh.”

Just as the ending note fell, those approaching footsteps stepped into the restroom.

He didn’t do anything else, Xue Lan also felt the person before him had no ill intent. Plus, he didn’t want Wen Yan to find him…so he stopped struggling.

Outside the stall came the rustling of clothes, and soon after the sound of water trickling followed.

Only then did Xue Lan finally fix his gaze on the person hiding with him in this cramped space…He paused.

The person before him wore an all-black sports outfit, making it difficult to conceal the unrestrained air around him. A pair of long, narrow phoenix eyes settled on the wooden door that was shut tightly, but there seemed to be a slight arc at the corner of his mouth.

As though sensing Xue Lan’s quiet gaze, he shifted his eyes onto him, looking over the dress on him. There was a glimpse of intrigue in his eyes.

The space between the two was extremely small because of the hold. Xue Lan’s heart pounded as if wanting to leap out of his chest—

It couldn’t be…this coincidental, right?

He had never seen this person, but somehow, the moment he saw him, his looks coincided a bit with what he had imagined countless times of the appearance of Duan Wenzheng.

So—

Maybe Wen Yan rushed into the internet cafe not because of him, but because this was where Wen Yan looked for Duan Wenzheng the second time, the place where he tried to ask him again to join the club!

After Xue Lan stopped struggling, he quietly took a small step back, motioning to him that he wouldn’t move. The person before him also looked like he just wanted to help. Seeing him taking a step back, he also didn’t do anything else.

But the space in the toilet stall was very narrow and small. The space between the two also didn’t increase.

The person outside was still leisurely humming a song. Xue Lan didn’t dare to let out a single sound, but his eyes instantly settled on the person before him without blinking.

Was he really Duan Wenzheng? But he brought him to hide inside here to help him? Then did he already recognize him??

Thinking to this point, Xue Lan’s expression which had calmed down tensed again.

So the first time he met his idol Duan Wenzheng was while…wearing this damned dress?!

Xue Lan’s whole person froze in place. He lowered his face, not daring to look at the person anymore. How could there be such a coincidence, this person was definitely not Duan Wenzheng…

But just as Xue Lan comforted himself, a familiar voice was suddenly heard outside the restroom—

“Zheng-ge, you haven’t come out for a long time, did you fall into the toilet? The game is on, if you still don’t come out, be careful of hemorrhoids!”

“…”

In the twinkling of an eye, Xue Lan’s and Duan Wenzheng’s faces became remarkable.

Outside the restroom, Wen Yan, who had given up looking for Xue Lan glanced at that empty seat, eyes settling on that character’s ID…

“Ey? A-Yan1, what are you doing coming inside…” The person who was relieving himself asked when he saw him suddenly rushing inside.

But Wen Yan only went straight in and looked at the only remaining empty stall besides his friend’s. He stopped in his tracks and raised his voice.

“Duan Wenzheng?”

Xue Lan held his breath, but the other person’s surprised cry came from outside the door. “What did you say? Duan Wenzheng?!”

Duan Wenzheng scrutinized his uneasy expression. He nonchalantly raised his voice to ask, “What is it?”

“I am…LGW’s Wind, we met in a game a few days ago.” Wen Yan’s voice smoothly asked, “About the proposal of you coming to LGW, how have you thought about it?”

Indeed…

Xue Lan lowered his head chagrined. Why did he bump into the storyline so carelessly?

Duan Wenzheng, however, observed the change in his expression. Facing Wen Yan’s reminder again, he casually answered:

“The people from LGW…like to discuss recruitment in the restroom?”

“…”

Xue Lan’s tense mood was nearly broken because of Duan Wenzheng’s words. Even if he did not open the door, he could clearly imagen Wen Yan’s expression at the moment was very remarkable.

They were sure enough his CP! They were already full of bromance in their first meeting!!

“I’ll wait for you outside.”

After saying that, Wen Yan quickly went out. Xue Lan quietly let loose a relieved sigh while also uneasily remembering—since Wen Yan wanted to discuss the club recruitment with Duan Wenzheng, if they talked in the internet cafe…

Then he must continue hiding in the restroom?!

With this thought, he lifted his head wanting to suggest Duan Wenzheng leave with Wen Yan…

“Hide well.”

But Duan Wenzheng smiled, lowering his peaked cap before opening the door and saying, “Wait for me.”

“…”

Xue Lan quietly watched him leave. He wanted to stop him, but considering Wen Yan was outside, he didn’t dare to let out a single sound.

So…he had to continue hiding in the restroom?!

Xue Lan leaned against the wall feeling out of luck. Who knows how long Duan Wenzheng and Wen Yan would talk for.

But unexpectedly, he only waited for a short while when Duan Wenzheng returned.

“Let’s go.”

Like in the game, Duan Wenzheng walked in front. The same tone of voice made the nervous Xue Lan forget where he was and also forget…what kind of clothes he was wearing.

He hurried to catch up.
