Chapter 57: Transfer Station

(notes: Chinese doesn’t have a system like English where ‘s’ is added at the end to suggest plurals so the ‘boyfriend’ here could refer to one or multiple.)

Hearing Ji Yushi say this, everyone was taken aback.
Ji Yushi had never talked to them about his personal matters. This was his first time talking about it.

Tang Le asked, “Advisor Ji, you have a boyfriend?!”

Ji Yushi nodded and smoothly admitted to it, as if he wasn’t embarrassed about his sexual orientation in front of this squad known for their homophobia.
Ji Yushi usually behaved cold and dignified. His bookish atmosphere was something only top intellectuals would have. When faced with danger, he could always get through it without bullshitting and his fighting abilities weren’t inferior to that of Guardians. On top of all that, his appearance was too outstanding. It made everyone regard him as a dazzling and magical existence. The Lin Xinlan who everyone in the squad was disgusted with couldn’t even be compared with him.
If Lin Xinlan was the mud that people didn’t want to come into contact with, Ji Yushi was the untouchable cloud in the sky. They were on two completely different levels.

Tang Le was curious, “What does Advisor Ji’s boyfriend do?”

Everyone walked across the lawn together.
Song Qinglan and Tang Qi walked ahead. It was unknown if they were paying attention to their conversation.
As for what kind of person Ji Yushi’s boyfriend was, it wasn’t just Tang Le who was curious. In fact, everyone else was curious what kind of person someone like Ji Yushi would like and what kind of person would match with him.

What did his boyfriend do?
Faced with this question, Ji Yushi thought for a while and said, “Tabletop cleaning master.”

Tang Le scratched the back of his head, “Tabletop cleaning master?”
Song Qinglan paused and asked, “What else?”

Of the three boyfriends, one was a table cleaning master. What did the other two do?
Tang Qi and Tang Le didn’t understand but Ji Yushi immediately understood the meaning behind Song Qinglan’s question. He lightly answered, “Same field.”

No one had heard of this profession and just felt that the conversation between the two didn’t seem right.
Song Qinglan didn’t speak anymore and just turned back and continued walking.

Tang Qi wasn’t a talkative person but Tang Le happened to be the opposite. Very often, Tang Le would help him ask the questions he wanted to know the answer to. As they continued walking, Tang Le chatted with Ji Yushi.

Tang Le, “How did you meet?”
With all the workload from Tianqiong, it wasn’t easy for one to cultivate feelings. The entire Seventh squad were single dogs because of this. Even if it was a different sexual orientation, Tang Le was eager to learn from those with experience to escape from his single status.

Ji Yushi, “Looked pleasing to the eye and we both had favourable impressions, so I brought him home.” (KKnotes: The ‘him’ here could refer to one or more)
Tang Le was shocked. This was something he couldn’t do, “S-so fast?!”
Ji Yushi just answered faintly, “Yeah.”
Tang Le, “Was it love at first sight?!”
Ji Yushi, “I guess so.”

After going up the stairs, they walked along a wooden porch with intricate carvings. Song Qinglan’s back was right in front of Ji Yushi.
Song Qinglan’s shoulder blades could be faintly seen under the white T-shirt and the outlines highlighted his powerful muscles. Walking through this courtyard filled with cultural vibes, Song Qinglan’s aggressiveness didn’t fit in at all.
Somehow, Ji Yushi could tell that the other party was in a bad mood.
It was as if the more they spoke, the hastier Song Qinglan’s steps became.

He probably couldn’t stand listening to it.

“Love at first sight.” Tang Le sighed, “Then your boyfriend must be very good-looking! I feel that Advisor Ji’s standards must be very high! What type is he?!”
