Chapter 21: I prefer men.

Cheng YuTang felt a tug on his heart and he quickly released his seat belt to check Ji XiaoYu's condition, "How are you?"

Ji XiaoYu covered his forehead and bared his teeth, "It hurts a lot."

Cheng YuTang gripped his shoulder and made him turn towards himself. He looked under his hand and saw that his clear, white forehead was red in the middle and slightly swollen. He couldn't help but anxiously say, "Is there any other uncomfortable feeling besides the pain? Any nausea?"

It would be troublesome if he had a concussion from the impact.

The distance between the two people was shrinking again. Cheng YuTang's movements were indescribably tinged with a flavor of intimacy. Ji XiaoYu felt awkward and panicked a little, not even feeling the headache anymore. He shifted his butt back uneasily, a little farther away from him, and casually said, "That doesn't seem to be the case. It's okay, my physical condition is good. Usually when I hit my head, it recovers quickly."

Cheng YuTang's heart had eased a little, but Ji XiaoYu's alienating behavior made him somewhat unhappy again. Was this little thing on-guard against himself? He didn't even want to do anything at this moment, he just worried about whether he was injured or not. So what was he nervous about?

Remembering that he had almost been in a car accident and that the cause was Ji XiaoYu overreacting, he couldn't help but say in annoyance, "What are you hiding from? I don't eat people. I was just fastening your seat belt. When you were surprised, what were you thinking? Luckily, there wasn't a serious accident or both of us would have had to go to the hospital."

Turns out it was just fastening the seat belt...... Ji XiaoYu was instantly ashamed. He knew that he needed to wear a seat belt when riding in the passenger seat, but he forgot in his overwhelmed state when he got in the car. Now, in retrospect, it was just a burst of fear and he was in the wrong, so he confessed, "Cheng Zong, I'm sorry, it wasn't deliberate. I'm just not used to being too close to other people, so......"

Cheng YuTang: "......."

Not used to being too close to other people? Then, kid, when you climbed up to Laozi's bed last year, what about that negative distance contact between you and Laozi?

At this moment, Cheng Zong, who was always gentle and graceful in public, really wanted to curse.

Ji XiaoYu suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but say in a panic, "Uh oh, I didn't break your windshield just now, right?"

As he spoke, he reached out and touched the windshield that he had just hit, fearing that if he found a crack on it, he might as well find a piece of tofu and beat himself to death with it.

After touching it repeatedly to confirm that the glass was intact, he patted his chest and made his heart calm down. Aiya, almost scared this pheasant to death.

Cheng YuTang originally had anger boiling in his belly, but he almost laughed at this sight. This little thing, with a swollen lump on his forehead, wasn't worrying about himself, but instead was worried about something irrelevant.

It was a pity his car's windshield was military-grade, bulletproof and explosion-proof. Let alone hitting it with a head, it wouldn't be easy to break it even if hit with a hammer. Otherwise, Ji XiaoYu's reaction probably would've been even more fun.

"Let's go, fasten your seatbelt yourself," Cheng YuTang said while restarting the sports car.

Ji XiaoYu quickly obeyed, then sat tight, putting both hands on his thighs in a proper manner. Just like an obedient primary school student, he no longer dared to move.
