"I will send you off one last time" [Global Examination]

[100] Bloody Carnival: Selected Exam

If You Huo and Qin Jiu were lesser men, they would have already turned red at how Chu Yue had so casually outed them. But these were two great masters, so they just kept a straight face, and looked at Chu Yue as if she was talking out of her ass.

Everyone else were far too stunned to speak.

Four times?

... What!?

"Three times?"

"There's another time?"

Qin Jiu and You Huo spoke almost at the same time but the question they asked was different.

"Forget three, four times!?"

Four fucking times!?

They couldn't even figure out how they got from two to three, how was it four now!?

Weren't they jumping too many sharks here!?

Chu Yue cackled with laughter, tears forming in the corners of her eyes at the completely lost and bewildered expressions on everyone's faces, "Please, don't tell me you weren't already suspecting things when they came in late for breakfast this morning."

Gao Qi, as well as several other moderates, started spluttering like fools, while You Huo narrowed his eyes at his sister-figure.

So what if Qin Jiu had shared a bed with him, and that they didn't want to get out of bed because they were way too nice and warm, cuddled together under the sheets!?

Being as unhelpful as always, Qin Jiu slung an arm over You Huo's shoulder, "Hmm... well, our bed definitely was way too comfy-"

You Huo glanced at the moderates who were gazing at You Huo like lost puppies, before glaring at Qin Jiu, snapping, "Enough. Stop wasting time."

Invigilator A's order was all the moderates needed to snap out of their stupor, and they turned back to the viewing experience, having composed themselves somewhat, though they still snuck occasional glances at You Huo and Qin Jiu, as if still wondering if something had really gone down last night...

After asking, they looked at each other.

Qin Jiu stared at You Huo with an inquiring look.

You Huo added vaguely: "Just remembered some things but it's not much."

"Did you have to be so vague about it?" Qin Jiu asked, before winking and reaching out, tracing his fingers over You Huo's arm, and it would have been barely noticeable through his long sleeves if not for You Huo looking directly at Qin Jiu as he did so, "Are you trying to tease me? You naughty thing."

You Huo glanced at him, utterly unamused, before shrugging, "You want to reveal more secrets so that the System would smite you? Be my guest. Remember who's the one who is still officially an invigilator, despite his current demotion, in the future."

"Aww, so cold to me." Qin Jiu lowered his head and sighed, sounding dejected, but the wide smile plastered on his face said otherwise.

"When did you remember?" Qin Jiu asked.

You Huo didn't answer.

The two stared at each other for a moment. You Huo turned his head away while touching his earring and licking his lips...

The moderates glanced at the You Huo in the viewing experience, then at their boss.

"..."

What future You Huo was thinking... they didn't want to know.
