You are my wife, don't doubt it!

"It's your turn now. It's obvious that Yu Luying is also dating Xiao Yao."

"Your word 'also' is very clever - doesn't she hate Xiao Yao and think he always pesters her? It seems that Xiao Yao even stole her underwear? Ha Ni Xin."

"You're talking about the past. They've been getting pretty close lately. Didn't you see them sitting together and whispering to each other today? Yu Luying is smart, but she's also a bit of a weirdo, so I didn't think much of it. But didn't you just say that Xiao Yao has another woman? You know all that, so how could Yu Luying not know? What's wrong with her?"

"That's possible. What if it's Xiao Yao's mistress who wants to be together?"

"I take it you want to come together?"

"I really do want to, after all, Xiao Yao's current gimmick is really good - but I think people will find my appearance cheap, haha."

"Chena, you are so shameless! (Note: shameless)"

Then there was another round of crazy laughter.

Xiao Yao tilted his ears and waited until the group of girls had gone far away before he quietly came out and was the last one to return to the car.

Mixed feelings.

When boys are together, the topic is always girls and games. I didn’t expect that girls would also talk about boys when they are together.

What does it feel like to be the center of discussion?

The feeling is, it's not very good.

We are all members of the literature club, and we are literary young women after all. Your words are simply disrespectful!

What kind of mistress? Your whole family is a mistress! Xiao Yao thought angrily.

You are talking so dirty, you are really annoying!

However, Xiao Yao could also sense that some people were jealous, and it felt good to hear those girls praising him for his "good gimmicks".

Thank you, my wife, for dressing me up beautifully. I would never be able to repay you even if I died.

Oops, my balls are hurting again.

Teacher Yuan counted the number of people on the bus again, and the bus drove out of the rest area and continued towards Zhouzhuang.

"By the way, there is something I need to explain to you." Xiao Yao spoke to Yu Luying hesitantly.

Yu Luying didn't say anything, but took off the earphone on her left ear and looked at him with a smile on her face.

"That...that night, I didn't mean to touch you...touch you..." Xiao Yao endured the pain in his balls and leaned towards Yu Luying, lowering his voice, but still unconsciously chose to speak in a roundabout way.

Yu Luying blushed.

"I know. I thought about it later. You feel short of breath and want to take Shen Jie's arm away, right?"

"Oh, yes, yes, you are really smart."

"I thought of it later, otherwise why would I bother with you?" Yu Luying turned her head and looked at the car window.

"I'm glad you didn't misunderstand." Xiao Yao felt as if a huge stone had been lifted from his heart. He felt much more relaxed. He leaned back in his chair and let out a long sigh.

But didn’t you end up meeting my…? Yu Luying thought, at that moment…

"I didn't mean to touch you, I really didn't mean to! It was an emergency at the time and I didn't think much about it. I hugged you from behind and pulled you back. I didn't mean to touch you there, I just wanted to protect you..." Xiao Yao was a little incoherent and tried hard to explain.

"Keep your voice down!!!" Yu Luying said anxiously: "I didn't say anything, are you feeling guilty?"

"You clearly said it..." Xiao Yao stammered.

"I didn't say anything." Yu Luying gritted her teeth and began to step on Xiao Yao's shoes.

Xiao Yao stepped back decisively.

Then the two of them stepped on each other under the seats.

"What are you doing? Making a noise!" Teacher Yuan cast a glance over here, and the students in front, behind, and around also looked over here.

Xiao Yao and Yu Luying quickly retracted their feet, rubbed the soles of their feet, and laughed secretly to each other.

The boy then realized that he had also heard Yu Luying's thoughts. He had been mentally unbalanced before, wondering how this intermittent mind-reading ability could be one-way, but today he finally grasped some of the key points inexplicably.

"Um, Yu Luying," Xiao Yao leaned his head against the back of the front seat and whispered, "In the future, we should try to eat less food like pork loin that can cause internal heat."

"I don't want to touch that thing again in my life." Yu Luying's face turned red again, and she felt ashamed and annoyed. Why did she keep talking about the embarrassing thing that happened that night?

"It's not that I'm not going to stop, because this matter has really bothered me for a long time." Xiao Yao said, but in his heart he was thinking: Is it because you don't have period, so you can't feel the pain I'm holding back? Why do I have to bear it when you have period pain?

Yu Luying suddenly stretched out her hand and twisted Xiao Yao's arm hard, and then both of them let out a "hiss" sound.

Yu Luying stopped talking, just leaned her head against the glass window, put on headphones and closed her eyes.

Alas, it seems that the right time will never come.

What should I do? Should I be more frank?

But how can we be frank? In the spirit of science and seeking truth from facts, can we re-examine the content of the last semester's physiology and hygiene course for the top students?

It's impossible for me to be like the villains on TV, who force the heroine into a corner with a ferocious face and tell her loudly: I am a man, I want it when I want it, and I want as much as I want! What I am saying to you now is not a discussion or a request, but a notice and an order! I don't care what you think, but you only have two choices: accept it or obey!

Ah, just thinking about it makes me feel a little relieved from the pain...

It’s a pity that I will never be able to say such words in my entire life. I am a chivalrous person.

Xiao Yao was looking at the roof of the car, his eyes wide open with wild thoughts, when the bus braked suddenly and the inertia almost made him hit his head on the back of the front seat.

He woke up with a start and quickly looked at Yu Luying beside him, only to see the girl looking at him with a complicated expression and slowly taking the earphones out of her ears.

Did I just say that out loud? How is that possible?

Xiao Yao looked around.

The students around seemed to be paying attention to the sudden brake just now. There was a lot of noise and chattering in the car, and no one paid attention to Xiao Yao and Yu Luying at all.

Damn it, isn't the frequency of mind-eavesdropping a bit too high today? I'm going to die.

Soon, the road conditions returned to normal, the bus continued to drive, and the interior of the car returned to its original quietness.

But during this period, Yu Luying kept examining Xiao Yao from head to toe, as if she wanted to drag his soul out of his body for a thorough examination.

Xiao Yao felt uncomfortable being stared at by her. He could only pretend to look at his nose with his eyes, his mouth with his nose, and his heart with his mouth. He placed his hands on his knees, straightened his back, and tried to stay away from her.

It was not until he saw Yu Luying turn her head away out of the corner of his eye that he cautiously relaxed a little.

Suddenly, Yu Luying spoke. Her voice was very soft, but every word she spoke was clearly transmitted to Xiao Yao's heart.

"You can control the frequency yourself. And, call me beforehand to let me know so that I don't make a fool of myself outside. Is this not too much to ask?"

"What are you talking about?" Xiao Yao confirmed in disbelief.

"If you don't understand, forget it." Yu Luying said.

"Really?" Xiao Yao was surprised. Was that all? Did she just agree so calmly? He thought she would get emotional and scold him.

"I said I promised you, and I promised you," Yu Luying closed her eyes, and two lines of tears flowed from her eyes. Xiao Yao felt a little itchy in the corners of his eyes: "Maybe this is my fate."

"You don't have to be like this. If you want to scold me, just do it. You can get off the car and scold me in a place where there is no one." Seeing her crying, Xiao Yao panicked again: "I can hold on. I can endure any pain. I will hold on as long as I can."

"No, no need to endure it. I've thought it through, really." Yu Luying held her forehead tiredly: "I don't want to scold you either. You haven't done anything wrong. You've tried very hard."

"Do you really think so?" Xiao Yao was a little unsure of her tone.

"real."

Is it useful to scold you? Yu Luying thought, is it useful to get emotional? Things have already come to this...

"Besides, what you said makes sense," Yu Luying added, "If this goes on for a long time, if something goes wrong with your body, then you'll have swelling here and pain there, and I'll suffer as well."

Moreover, Xiao Yao was not the only one who had the same physical dilemma. But this was the only thing that could not be admitted to anyone, so Yu Luying chose this excuse to numb herself.

No, none of the above are the deepest reasons.

Worrying about his health problems is not just about worrying about him getting in trouble. Ultimately, it’s because... I’m worried about him.

Oops!

Yu Luying looked at Xiao Yao with eyes wide open, and met his incredulous gaze.

"How much did you hear?" Yu Luying wanted to kill the person to silence him.

"I didn't hear anything, not a single word." Xiao Yao vowed, and then changed the subject: "Anyway, I'm very touched that you agreed to this. I know that as a girl, this is a huge sacrifice for you-"

It would be fine if she just heard "worrying about him", but if she heard the "physical distress", it would expose the most secret things in the girl's heart and completely violate her boundaries.

The girl began to get angry and embarrassed.

"Xiao Yao, I'm telling you the truth, I hate you, do you understand?"

"I understand."

"No, you don't understand." Yu Luying shook her head vigorously and continued, "Symbiosis is not your responsibility, nor does it only cause trouble to me. Although I did think about it for a while... I soon figured it out."

When Xiao Yao heard this, he was startled. What was he thinking about?

"But later, you got together with Shen Jie." Yu Luying paused and her breathing became heavier.

"You clearly know that we are in this kind of relationship," Yu Luying's eyes began to turn red again. "We share all the joys and pains from each other. Sometimes I even fall into a state of nothingness, doubting that I... doubt whether Yu Luying no longer exists. Am I already... something else?"

Xiao Yao could hardly keep up with her jumping thoughts.

"Don't you realize that in our current state, if you do that, it's the same as if I were doing that with you - there's no essential difference."

"I understand. That's why for your innocence, I have been trying my best to restrain myself—"

"Innocence, thank you for your family! What is innocence for someone who has lost his independent identity?" Yu Luying laughed: "You know very well that such things can only be done between husband and wife, and even between lovers. But if you must do it, having the name of a couple is always a hundred times better than having no name or status, right?

"But who am I to you? I have no power, let alone the ability to restrain you. I am not even qualified to love you now. I can do nothing but hate you."

Xiao Yao felt that Yu Luying's voice was a bit loud, and he looked around uneasily. Fortunately, the people around him were either listening to music or sleeping, and no one seemed to hear anything.

"What I hate about you is not that you asked me for this today, but that I think since you are in this situation, you should not date other girls for the time being.

"Every time you hugged Shen Jie, did you ever think about my feelings? I'm not heartbroken because I like you, but I don't want to be forced to be with a girl--"

"Keep your voice down! I beg you!"

"I always thought I was an independent person, but I know I'm not anymore. Sometimes I really want to find a man and let him have a taste of what it's like!!"

There are so many boys in school who like Yu Luying that if they want to find her, they may have to line up from the classroom door to the cafeteria. Xiao Yao suddenly became anxious: "Auntie, please don't ruin yourself. Promise me, okay? I can do anything you want."

"Why are you so anxious? You know I can't do it. I don't have the guts. I don't even have the courage to give up on myself." Yu Luying smiled sadly, "In fact, I know in my heart that it's not important to worry about my status with you or our relationship."

Xiao Yao took out a tissue (carrying tissues with him was also a new habit Shen Jie had cultivated in him) and wiped Yu Luying's face. Yu Luying did not dodge.

"We are classmates, we are lovers, we are enemies, we are foes, we are strangers. I like you, you like me, I don't like you, you hate me. Does all this matter?" said Yu Luying.

"..." Xiao Yao didn't say anything, just waited for her to continue.

"Can't you imagine that the relationship between the two of us has long surpassed all the relatives, couples, and friends in this world. For two grasshoppers on the same rope, how they view each other, does it really matter?"

"I think I understand what you mean." Xiao Yao swallowed hard: "We are bugs."

"We share everything with each other. We even have the same blood in our veins. I am affected by your emotions. I consider your feelings when I do everything. Now, if you want, you can even read my mind. The two of us cannot be separated by more than 20 kilometers. If this problem is not solved, we will be tied together for the rest of our lives. What kind of couple would be like this?

"Will I be able to go abroad in the future? I will be tied to you for the rest of my life. Have you ever thought about what this means? This will even affect our life plans and careers after high school—"

Teacher Yuan leaned over and asked, "What's wrong, Xiao Yao? Did you bully your classmates?"

"It's okay, it's okay. We're fine." The two of them waved to Teacher Yuan together.

Yu Luying lowered her voice again: "At that time, I felt that if you really thought about it, you would not date anyone else. The two of us may not choose each other, but no one of us is qualified to date, marry, or live with a third person!"

"I feel sorry for you and for her," Xiao Yao said.

"That's right, so during this period of time, I always felt that you were a shameless bastard." Yu Luying said bitterly: "Do you take a shower every day, do you go to bed on time, what do you eat and drink, is the water temperature high or low when you take a shower? In fact, these are all trivial matters. Only, only when you and Shen Jie are intimate, I feel that you don't respect me."

"Sorry……"

"But last night, after you told me about that incident, my thoughts changed." Yu Luying wiped her eyes and smiled, revealing a faint dimple: "I began to understand you. I even felt that you were not wrong. You are also a victim and you have no choice."

"No, I was wrong." Xiao Yao retorted.

"I just laughed at you for being puppets of fate. I said I had no influence on your affairs. That was all false. I lied to you. I was just lying to myself."

"..." Xiao Yao was silent, not knowing what to say.

"In fact, the three of us are puppets of fate. It's a vicious joke played by the goddess of fate, isn't it?" Yu Luying said, "We are all bugs!"

Xiao Yao didn't know who extended his hand first, but by the time he reacted, the two people's hands were already tightly clasped together.

He felt that he was being unfair to Shen Jie by holding Yu Luying's hand and wanted to let go, but at this moment, he just couldn't.

"Maybe this is indeed a curse," Xiao Yao said in a deep voice, "I can't let her go, let go of my daughter. I feel that I am responsible for both of them, but I am also responsible for you. In the past, I did too badly, and I didn't do enough—"

“Hmm~” Yu Luying shook her head and made a negative sound through her nose: “You have actually tried very hard. I can see that, really. A lot of the things I said just now were just willful and angry words…”
