狼行成双 || wolves of a pair prowl together [English Translation]

-76-

Today, before this moment, Bian Nan had many imaginations about this matter.

‘How will my family find out? What will their attitude be? What will my father, aunt, Bian Xinyu, and Bian Hao say?’

‘And how would I deal with it? Admit it, grit my teeth and bear it…’

Although it was his habit not to think too much about these things, he would stop thinking when he felt upset.

But he never thought that he would feel like this when he was really pushed to this point.

Nervous, confused, uneasy...

No, it's not uneasy. It's fear.

Everyone was there. He was standing at the bottom of the stairs, Bian Xinyu was standing beside him, Bian Hao was standing in front of the sofa, his aunt was at the kitchen door, and his way back to his room upstairs was blocked by his father who was walking down from upstairs.

Several people looked at him, waiting for his answer with confusion because of Bian Xinyu's question which sounded very confusing.

"Who... did you spend Valentine's Day... with?" Bian Xinyu was no longer shouting loudly. When she asked the second time, her voice was trembling and nasal.

She would probably burst into tears in the next second.

‘Do I want to answer? How to answer?’

Bian Nan looked at her silently.

There are many ways to avoid the current deadlock.

‘Met on the road. Yes,he met up with Qiu Yi and went to meet friends. Wan Fei and Shen Tao were waiting for them.’

If he didn't want to admit it, even if Bian Xinyu already knew Qiu Yi's sexual orientation, he could still easily clear himself from it.

But,... . If this is denied,he was essentially pushing Qiu Yi away.

Qiu Yi's attitude towards this matter has always made him unhappy. He avoided people and didn't want him(BN) to get too close to his(QY) father. They even had some unpleasantness over this...

He didn't know why Qiu Yi was like this, but after hearing Qiu Yi say it that day, he did feel excited and happy.

If he denies it now, it seems that he has thrown Qiu Yi aside to some extent.

For the first time, Bian Nan felt that his IQ was not enough, at least it would fail when taking sharp turns at high speed.

His mind was in a mess. He wanted to say it or not. Qiu Yi said he would talk about it after the Chinese New Year, but now...

A few seconds later he made a decision and opened his mouth to speak, but Bian Xinyu suddenly screamed, covered her ears and ran upstairs: "Don't tell me! I don't want to listen--"

Bian Xinyu ran very quickly, shouting and crying, and knocked her father who was standing on the stairs to the side. She rushed to the second floor, ran into her room, and slammed the door.

Then he heard the faint sound of crying coming from her room.

"What's going on!" Dad finally reacted and asked, staring at Bian Nan.

"I..." Bian Nan felt his hands getting cold and his palms were full of sweat. His father's stern look almost made the courage he had accumulated for half a day disappear.

"What on earth happened?" The aunt didn't bother to ask more questions. She hurried upstairs and knocked on the door of Bian Xinyu's room anxiously, "Xinyu, what's wrong? What happened? Open the door for mom..."
