Because I Like You [BL]

Part 1

1

To be honest, I've been dumped again.

My ex-girlfriend gave the same reason as the one before.

"Jiang Nian, being with you is too boring."

"Can't you learn from Xiao Si Yue how to make a woman happy?"

I closed my eyes, feeling the grassland on my head growing even more luxuriant. [1]

Despite this being the eighth girlfriend Xiao Si Yue had stolen from me.

I still pretended to be calm and agreed to the breakup.

After she left, I immediately grabbed a knife and rushed to Xiao Si Yue's house.

You know, in Hong Kong dramas, stealing a brother's girlfriend is a crime punishable by a thousand cuts.

At the door of Xiao Si Yue's house.

I directly entered the password and went in.

I brought out 100% of my momentum.

I was determined to stab him as soon as I saw him.

The living room was empty, the lights were on, he should be in the bedroom.

I walked briskly to the bedroom.

Unexpectedly, just as I walked in, I ran straight into a naked Xiao Si Yue.

Normally, I don't even watch porn.

And now I saw my childhood friend's naked body.

What a big blow to my innocent self!

But wait, this bastard was working out!

Not satisfied with his looks, family background, and grades, he's now even working on his physique.

How many girlfriends does he want to steal from me?

I exploded, shouting: "Xiao Si Yue, you bastard!"

Xiao Si Yue calmly put on a bathrobe, not even glancing at me.

"Why are you here?"

"Weren't you making a fuss about not contacting me anymore?"

I was annoyed by his arrogant tone, rushed up to question him. But my height was at a disadvantage, a whole head shorter than him, and my momentum instantly weakened.

This guy must be 189 cm tall, right?

"Xiao Si Yue, what grudge do you have against me? You stole eight of my girlfriends. Isn't that too much?"

He glanced at me indifferently, making my heart skip a beat.

"You didn't come to find me for the first seven. Why come now?"

"You really like her?" Xiao Si Yue stared at me.

"Nonsense, I liked every one of them."

"Really? Your taste is really bad."

"Eat something good!"

Listen to him, how can he say something like this?

If he didn't like them, why steal them?

After winning, he still insults me?

What does he really want?

Is it that the girls I date are more appealing? Does he target only my girlfriends?

Xiao Si Yue bypassed me and walked to the living room. I quickly grabbed him and pinned him to the wall.

"I warn you, don't steal my girlfriends anymore, or else I...".

Xiao Si Yue laughed wildly: "What can you do to me?"

I really couldn't do anything to him; otherwise, he wouldn't have stolen my eight girlfriends.

Seeing the situation clearly, I let go of him and softened my tone: "Alright! I beg you?"

"I don't want to be single forever."

"We're all brothers, can you steal someone else's girlfriend?"

Xiao Si Yue's face turned even uglier: "Beg me? Where was that courage when you blocked me without a word?"

"Jiang Nian, after your family went bankrupt, instead of thinking about making a comeback, you focused on dating. Don't you feel ashamed?"

I talked to him about love, he talked to me about ambition.

This was a battle I couldn't win!

I could only slink back to my dormitory.

Since our family went bankrupt in high school, I've been giving up on everything along with my dad. I never thought about making a comeback.

But that's not a reason for him to steal my girlfriends!

Damn it, I got caught up in his words again.

The news of me being cheated on spread throughout A University.

Everyone called me the Hulk behind my back.

My roommate, upon hearing about my situation, was very sympathetic.

"Bro, actually, being stolen by Xiao Si Yue isn't shameful."

"It only proves that you have the same taste. In a sense, you're half a heartthrob too."

"Damn you, can you console someone properly?" I made a move to kick my roommate.

My roommate quickly begged for mercy: "Hold on, I have a way to help you. If he steals your girlfriends, then you get a boyfriend, do the opposite. He can't steal a guy, right?"

"I get it, madness literature [2], right? I'm good at this!"

Even if I couldn't beat him, at least I could disgust him.

Seeing me satisfied with the suggestion, my roommate felt very accomplished.

Finally, he posed a soul-searching question: "But where will you find this boyfriend?"

I patted my roommate's shoulder: "This difficult task is yours."

Before my roommate could retort, I lay down and fell asleep.

Unexpectedly, the next day, my roommate found me a boyfriend and arranged for us to meet at a karaoke that evening.

Without thinking, I happily went to the appointment.

I didn't notice the strange look in my roommate's eyes.

The guy was called Zhou Tian Qi.

Sunshine and sporty type.

If Xiao Si Yue is anime-level handsome, then he is real-world, more down-to-earth handsome.

"You're different from what I imagined." The guy smiled shyly.

"How so?"

"Very quiet, not noisy."

My smile stiffened, guessing that my roommate described me like a monkey.

But why does this feel like a blind date?

Never mind, as long as it makes Xiao Si Yue frustrated.

I mimicked a girl, leaning into Zhou Tian Qi's arms.

I had to practice so I wouldn't be exposed in front of Xiao Si Yue.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Zhou Tian Qi seemed to tense up, and his face turned a bit red.

Isn't he straight?

While I was puzzled, someone broke in.

Oh my god, a socially dead scene.

It was my ex-girlfriend Xiao Zi.

She looked at me with wide eyes, in disbelief.

"Jiang Nian, you're gay?"

"Did you get dumped by me and get traumatized?"

I quickly left Zhou Tian Qi's arms. Not two seconds later, seeing Xiao Si Yue walk in, I could only lean back into Zhou Tian Qi's arms.

"So what if I'm gay? Love knows no gender."

"I love him for who he is."

"Are you discriminating?"

Xiao Zi quickly distanced herself, her brows furrowing in clear disdain: "No discrimination! As long as you like it, it's fine! As long as you like it!"

I glanced at Xiao Si Yue beside me, his face looked worse than when he first saw me with a girlfriend.

He stared at me, as if I had said something outrageous.

I secretly rejoiced, finally turning the tables a bit.

"Disgusting!" Xiao Si Yue threw down this word and left in a huff.

My ex-girlfriend hurried after him: "Si Yue, wait for me, isn't it your birthday?"

After they left, I cheerfully patted Zhou Tian Qi on the arm: "Thanks, buddy, I'll treat you to a meal another day."

Then I hummed a little tune and returned to my dormitory.

I told my roommate with satisfaction: "You know, your idea really worked! It is a shame you did not see how angry Xiao Si Yue was!"

My roommate forced a smile: "As long as it worked! As long as it worked!"

"Why do you seem off?"

My roommate wiped the sweat off his forehead: "Little Nian, there's something I need to tell you, about Zhou Tian Qi."
