Shi Luo choked and pulled his hand back like he'd suffered an electric shock. He was so ashamed and resentful that he blurted out, "You were pretending and you actually admitted it?!"

Yu Sui adjusted the hem of his T-shirt and said softly, "You were rubbing so earnestly that my conscience couldn't bear it."

Shi Luo wanted to say 'you still have a conscience?'. But thinking about it carefully, this person was indeed very conscientious. Saying this would be too hurtful. Shi Luo tried to hold back his blush. Gritting his teeth, he said, "That's so magnanimous of you..."

Shi Luo took a couple steps back and sat down on a cushion on the floor. He took out a cigarette and held it between his lips. He lighted it up and with ears completely red, he said nothing and began to smoke.

Yu Sui looked silently at Shi Luo. "You were acting strange since we came back from the game. I don't know what's the matter with you. So I thought of tricking you into coming out so I can ask you."

Shi Luo blew out some smoke and frowned, "You couldn't have just...called me?"

Yu Sui looked at Shi Luo and asked in return, "If I had called you, would you have come? Could you have let your guard down...and be honest?"

Shi Luo took a puff and did not answer.

"Let's chat." It seemed like the last time this happened between the two of them was two years ago.

Since their reunion, there have always been other people or other matters between the two of them. But even when they're alone, they were unable to be completely calm.

Yu Sui actually didn't feel all that sad about how things have changed between them. If he wanted them to go back to those times when there weren't any unpleasantness between them then that would take time. They've been apart for so long. How was it possible to say, 'let bygones be bygones' and let things just pass?

Misunderstanding can be clarified, gross injustices can be wiped clean, but wounds needed to slowly recover.

Yu Sui carefully observed Shi Luo's expression. "What did I accidentally do to make you unhappy?"

"Nothing." Shi Luo sullenly said, "I was just shocked when I saw that feelings mediation talk show on your computer when we got back. I thought, I thought..."

Yu Sui was at a loss. "Thought what?"

Shi Luo indignantly mumbled, "I thought you really wanted to send me and Violent Shu to that kind of show."

Yu Sui: "..."

Yu Sui tried his hardest to make himself appear like a normal person. "I just haven't seen this kind of thing before. I was curious. I wanted to take a look. It would be impossible to send you to participate in this kind of thing..."

"Yeah. I figured that after some thought." Shi Luo smoked another cigarette. He said reluctantly, "My brain just short-circuited during dinner. Afterwards, I didn't think about it anymore."

Shi Luo looked distrustfully at Yu Sui. "Is your stomach really ok?"

"It's really fine." Yu Sui made his slag-ness clear. "It's not uncomfortable at all. I was pretending all that time just to trick you into looking for me."

Shi Luo was so furious that he snatched back the cup of water he had just gotten for Yu Sui.

Yu Sui reminded him. "But I already drank it."
