A CERTAIN SOMEONE ( THE ON1Y ONE )

Chapter 027 - Extorted Confession

Canned: Thanks.

Gao Tianyang's Wechat profile picture was a ray of light in the universe, his nickname was ‘Boom’, declaring himself as roughly the origin of all things.
According to Song Sirui’s explanation, this person’s first nickname was the English version of the Big Bang, but he ended up clashing names with someone. After compromising by taking half of it out, he named himself ‘Bang’, which had a double meaning to it, of being both explosive(ly cool) and awesome. In the end, he got pissed off and changed his name when Song Sirui and co sweetly called him ‘bang bang’.

Sheng Wang was also a peacock, he couldn’t really stand other people tooting their own trumpets right in front of him, so he changed the additional label to this person as ‘Unassuming Gao Tianyang’.

At that moment, Unassuming Gao Tianyang sent him a voice message.
Sheng Wang opened it by accident, and howling laughter came bursting from his phone. Both Sheng Mingyang and Jiang Ou turned to look at him.
The heck.
He hurriedly muffled it, switched away from the voice message and changed to text.

Unassuming Gao Tianyang: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I saw the pictures, Xi-ge sent them to me, hold on I’ll send them to you.
The next second, Sheng Wang’s screen was taken over by a disgraceful picture.

The two hooligans were hugging their heads as they squatted in a corner of ‘In Those Years’ BBQ shop, in a wimpy state of being all pissed off and yet too cowardly to fight back. This picture was likely taken by Zhao Xi, he took the pictures from north south east west, 360 degrees, fully presenting their miserable state.

Unassuming Gao Tianyang: Sheng-ge look at the faces, it’s the two idiots who ambushed you right
Canned: I don’t know the faces
Unassuming Gao Tianyang: …….
Canned: Looks like it from the hair though
Unassuming Gao Tianyang: Fk
Unassuming Gao Tianyang: Why did you still take a huge breath to say it, idc, I’m laughing at them today!!!

Sheng Wang actually felt especially good, but he didn’t care to laugh with Gao Tianyang. He was thinking how there wasn’t such a coincidence in this world, those two idiots sabotaged him in the morning, and got hit by karma by night.
He suspected that this had to do with Jiang Tian, but he had no proof.

“What were you talking about?” Sheng Mingyang opened a can of drinks for him, “One moment you’re laughing and the next you’re serious.”
Ever since Sheng Wang entered Fuzhong he had never eaten his dinner at home, the only time was the day he first met Jiang Tian. It ended badly and he even starved for the whole night.
The meal today was the first dinner truly shared together. Sheng Wang, Sheng Mingyang, Jiang Ou were all seated, waiting for Jiang Tian.

After the chemistry paper, Jiang Tian was called away by an unfamiliar looking teacher. People say that that teacher was part of the school’s admin team, the school internet was handled by him and Jiang Tian. Every time there was any problem, he would call Jiang Tian over.
Before Jiang Tian left he did let Sheng Wang know, saying that he would be going home slightly late, no need to wait for him for dinner. But Sheng Mingyang was insistent — those two kids had agreed to have dinner as a table of four for the first time, why would they ever start eating before everyone arrived.

For this period of time Sheng Mingyang was always on a business trip. He didn’t actually understand why the relationship between Sheng Wang and Jiang Tian warmed up, still, this didn’t get in the way of his happiness either, the excitement was clear on his face. It also manifested in how while he usually didn’t look at Sheng Wang’s phone on his own accord, he didn’t notice today, and he huddled closer to take a look.

It’s been ages since Sheng Wang was this close with his dad, was it a couple of years or three to five? He could no longer tell.

He wasn’t the healthiest as a kid, he was bones all over and barely weighed a thing. Sheng Mingyang often lifted him over his head, letting him ride on his neck, telling Sheng Wang’s mom, “Did we get the wrong kid? Even your dad’s cat is heavier than him, if they start fighting, Wang-zai might not even win.”
And then Sheng Wang would pull at his ears, he always feigned pain and went ow ow ow.
