RUMOURS RUN WILD (Completed)

Chapter 8

His thin pants unable to block the cold wind, Gulf could feel his balls shrinking. A bell rang in the distance, Pufai's tears glimmered like pearls.

The wild wind blew, a beauty's tears, the desolating setting, it was as though this scene was lifted from a Korean drama, only missing the background music for more impact, then Gulf would domineeringly yet warmly embrace Pufai, with strongly pulsating heartbeats, the both of them would melt into each other, with tenderness in their hearts — yeah right. Gulf was quick-witted, but his mouth was not too clever, hence resulting in so many misunderstandings. He stood in front of Pufai and uncomfortably scratched himself, thinking about how to reply. At this moment Gulf had a little craving for a cigarette, he had only stopped smoking after dating Pufai, so his craving was not too strong. Gulf was a model example of the type of people who could sacrifice everything for the person they liked, when they were dating Gulf was also well-known for quitting his games at any time to cater to Pufai.

– Sorry sorry my girlfriend has cramps I'm going to deliver brown sugar water

– Sorry sorry my girlfriend didn't bring her textbook I'm going to deliver it to her

– Sorry sorry my girlfriend wants to eat Fried rice right now I have to go out and buy

Fuck, forget about quitting, why did he still have to show off his relationship? Report this asshole for showing off and destroying the gameplay experience!

With their current relationship, Gulf believed that even though he was not perfect, but towards Pufai he had a clear conscience. Their faculty was just like a monastery, more thorns than roses, he was not like Mew who could attract any and everyone, even if Gulf were to have outstanding qualifications, Pufai would still have many admirers, now that Gulf was no longer around, for Pufai to only discover his good qualities now, naturally it was too late.

"Better not," in the end Gulf still could not come up with a flowery speech, he had never dated anyone before, putting so much effort into the relationship only to break up for a ridiculous reason, and to get back together now, this would not even happen in a novel. Gulf swiftly thought of a lame excuse, "I have started to smoke again."

"I can accept that."

"I..." Mew's earlier speech suddenly popped into Gulf's head, which he then repeated word for word. He must have thought about the speech many times, being able to recite the speech flawlessly not unlike the poems he had memorised from young. "I'll sleep talk and scare people, sing awfully in the shower, blame my junior when I lose during video games, always steal my junior's drumstick when eating..."

"Gulf!" The more he spoke the more upset Pufai got, finally with a loud yell he quickly shut up, Pufai's eyes were filled with tears. "If you don't want then don't, why so many excuses! You're only blurring my vision!"

"..." Gulf could only be direct. "Sorry, you deserve better."

"Every time you mention your junior you sound very intimate," Pufai could not help but laugh after calming down. "It's hard to believe you when you say there's nothing going on between the both of you."

"There's really nothing going on between Mew and me..."

For some unknown reason, whenever Gulf had to repeat this sentence he was no longer full of indignation and frankness, in fact, afraid of exposing anything he avoided Pufai's gaze. After all, females did have very strong sense of intuition, to Pufai Gulf's reaction definitely looked like he was trying to hide something.

"Shut up!"

"Fine."

Gulf's usual obedience caused Pufai to feel tearful, she turned to leave.
