PUBG Online Romance of the Century

Edited by xiin and Noks

The second kiss lingered much longer.

The alcohol that Yu Yan had consumed had already gone to his head a bit, and although he was mostly sober, his entire mind felt as if it was on fire.

The lounge was very big, but the space he was in was very narrow.

He was in a trance, completely absorbed in going along with the other person's actions. When he finally couldn't stand it anymore, he raised his hand and patted Yi Chen on the shoulder, panting, "I don't have any experience… Let me catch my breath before continuing."

"I don't have any either," said Yi Chen.

Yu Yan looked at him, and owing to both the alcohol and loss of breath, a few physiological tears appeared at the bottom of his eyes, as they both grew wide. "How can you not have any experience?"

Yi Chen found it funny. "Why can't I not have any? Why can't you get any air? What about your nose?"

Yu Yan said honestly, "I'm nervous, so my nose has no way to get air…"

Yi Chen looked at him and suddenly changed his words. "I spoke wrongly just now, you're probably a little drunk."

Yu Yan was at a loss. "….Ah?"

Yi Chen stifled a laugh and rubbed his head.

If he wasn't drunk, how could he be ten thousand times more candid than usual?

"Let's go first." Yi Chen said, "Someone will be coming in soon to tidy up."

When they got into the car, Yu Yan felt that it was way too hot. As soon as the car started, he rolled the window down.

As a result, within a few minutes of a cold wind blowing at him, the better half of his drunkenness had vanished.

Everything immediately became crystal clear in his mind——

He had just been kissed by Yi Chen in the lounge.

…Twice.

Yu Yan suddenly felt thirsty and asked, "Is there any water in the car?"

He'd just asked, and immediately, the person in the driver's seat closed his window. Then, a bottle of mineral water was handed over to him.

It had been drunk from before, and only half of it was filled with water.

Yu Yan hurriedly accepted it, and because he was in such a hurry, their fingers brushed each other.

At the red light, Yi Chen stopped, looked sideways, and asked, "Why aren't you drinking?"

Yu Yan, who was holding the water bottle in his hands, felt stunned when he heard this question.

He wasn't quite willing to drink.

He still remembered that when he had just been kissed, Yi Chen had even… stretched his tongue inside his mouth a bit.

"……not thirsty anymore."

Yi Chen looked at him and suddenly laughed. "You have had the wind blowing in your face for so long, but your face has gotten even redder. What are you thinking about?"

"…… Thinking about," Yu Yan turned his head and looked at him before asking, "Why ah?"

"En?"

"Why all of a sudden… did you start to like me?"

Yi Chen liked him. To him, this was like a big pie that fell from the sky, smashed into him, and made his head dizzy and his eyes swirl.

What was good about him? He was pretty strong in playing games&#k2026; was there anything else?

He didn’t have any educational background, didn’t have any life experience, and he seemed to have no advantages other than gaming. In front of Yi Chen, he must look like a child who had seen little of the world.

Since his brief bout of drunkenness had now dissipated, and he was sober, he felt both very happy and also very worried.

The red light turned green, but Yi Chen had sensed his mood, so he looked away before stopping the car at the side of the road.

"Just now, I asked you in the lounge if you were jealous."

Yu Yan nodded. In fact, he had already almost completely forgotten everything they had said in the lounge. All he remembered were the two kisses and the word 'like'.

"I don't know if you were jealous." Yi Chen's tone was light. "I was, though."

Yu Yan froze. "What?"

"That anchor from just now." Yi Chen leisurely grabbed his hand and pinched his thumb a bit. "You gave him the gun, and toasted him after getting off the stage… and you were going to go get a happy ending with him?"

Somehow, Yu Yan felt that the last few words were bitten off harshly.

Yu Yan let him pinch him, even though it tickled a bit, and explained, "They said it was good for the waist, so I agreed to go."

"It's not only him." Yi Chen said, "There was also that previous trending topic, 'Suspected Love Affair Exposed'?"

"…."

"And climbing a mountain with her, going to ask for blessings."

"I went to ask for blessings for you."

"You still can't go out with unfamiliar online friends for something like that."

Yu Yan thought that he and Tuantuan had become quite familiar to each other by that time.

Of course, he just thought it, and didn't dare to say it.

Not being aware of it had been fine, but after tallying it up like this, and turning all accounts over, Yi Chen felt himself becoming solidly angry again for a bit.

He took a deep breath and said, "So it's not all of a sudden. I'm just comparatively…"

Yu Yan nodded. "Comparatively?"

"Comparatively…" It was hard to admit. Over the years, Yi Chen had never had to put any negative labels on himself. After a while, he finally said calmly, "Slow to understand."

After saying that, he looked at the person next to him and found that Yu Yan was just staring at him, without saying a word in reply.

He laughed. "Do you understand?"

Yu Yan replied, "…Yes."

The car restarted. The venue for the gala was very close to the hotel, and Yu Yan felt that they were already almost there before he had even gotten the chance to figure things out.

He got out of the car, heard Yi Chen say goodbye to him, then blurted out, "Do you want to come up and sit for a bit?"

Yi Chen raised his eyebrows and didn't answer.

Just when Yu Yan thought he hadn't heard his invitation clearly, Yi Chen said slowly, "That's too fast."

?

Yu Yan was stunned, and he only managed to react a long time later. "No, no, no, not that, I didn't mean that…"

He felt like he was going crazy. His train of thought would go flying up to the skies whenever this guy said whatever he wanted to. "I meant, to have a cup of tea… or something. If you don't have time, then that's fine."

Yi Chen had just wanted to say something when Yu Yan suddenly stepped forward, put his head in the window, and lowered his voice.

"And also, I haven't told you yet."

His ears were red, and because it was cold, his breath puffed out a visible white cloud in the air.

"……I like you too."

"……"

The car behind him had been waiting for a long time and impatiently honked its horn twice.

Yu Yan quickly stepped back and waved at him. "Drive carefully."

As Yi Chen's eyes darkened, he said, "Come here."

Yu Yan was stunned and went over to the driver's side. "What's the matter?

Yi Chen leaned forward and kissed him.

Yu Yan returned to his room, and his whole person was dizzy; his heart was still thumping, and he was even more nervous than when he played in the final rounds of matches before.

This lasted till he saw the suitcase lying on the ground… He was shocked and felt that he had forgotten something.

He was startled out of his thoughts and quickly took out his cell phone to dial a number. The call rang for 50 seconds before it was picked up.

"Xiao Yan." Lu Xiuhe's voice sounded very nervous. "What's up ah?"

"I'm already at the hotel." Yu Yan said, "I'm sorry… I drank too much and forgot about you. Where are you?"

There was a rush of scrabbling sounds coming from the other end. After a while, he heard Lu Xiuhe say, "…I also drank too much and have already left."

The two of them were silent for a moment.

Yu Yan had just wanted to say something when he heard an unfamiliar male voice sound out from the other side. The male voice first sneered, "Who? The phone number you just got?"

"Don't talk nonsense…" Lu Xiuhe's voice seemed to sound as if he was about to cry. "Even if it was, it has nothing to do with you ah! Hey, wait, wait a minute, I'm on the phone… Xiao Yan, I still have something to do here."

Yu Yan felt that something was wrong and asked, "Where are you? Is there someone next to you? Are you okay?"

"Not okay… okay, I'm okay. I have a friend next to me."

Lu Xiuhe was more outgoing and had many friends. Yu Yan believed most of what he had said and asked, "Then, when will you come back?"

That male voice rang out again, "He's not going back."

"Stop talking randomly! Now, I'm coming back now." Lu Xiuhe continued, "I have something else to do here, I'll tell you about it when I get back."

The other party hung up the phone in a hurry. Yu Yan stared at the cellphone and kept feeling that something was strange.

But Lu Xiuhe was a fully grown man after all, so he wasn't particularly worried. He calculated the time and concluded that Yi Chen shouldn't have reached his own house yet. Yu Yan sat on the sofa and opened up Weibo.

Since he normally received a lot of comments and @'s, he had turned his Weibo notifications off. When he opened it this time, he discovered that he actually had 999 notifications.

He thought it was because the platform's official Weibo kept @ing him during the livestream, and all these additional notifications must have come up because people online kept forwarding those posts, but he didn't expect that when he clicked to take a look at the notifications——

[2019 All the CPs I'm a fan of are married: Today, I saw some friends talking about the annual gala in the group chat, and I clicked to watch it because I was bored.

Declaring first… I'm not following any anchors myself. I just want to ask, who is the man holding @yanxyan's chin?!]

There was also a gif attached to this post, and it was of Yi Chen holding his chin.

The man's head was lowered slightly, and from this angle, the tall bridge of his nose was very conspicuous.

He clearly remembered… When Yi Chen came over to his table, the camera had already been moved away ah?

Yu Yan saved this gif and kept scrolling through.

7000 comments, 4000 reblogs, 13,000 likes.

[Holy craaaaaaaaapppp! The host actually introduced the person with their head lowered, but during the livestream they! Muted! It! What kind of fiendish operation is this?! Both of these people are really good looking ah. When I was in high school and I looked at the straight men around me acting gay every day, I just felt that it was disgusting. Now I understand, in the end, it was because their faces weren't good-looking (sigh)]

[Xiao Yan's animated gif is amazing, are you sure it's an anchor competition and not an idol selection?? In addition, I would like to recommend my son, yanxyan, livestream XXXX. He looks like he does on the screen, has the best strategy, treats people politely, and you can immediately participate with him. You'll really be missing out if you don't!! Bowing down and begging other strategy fans to not keep lumping him in with other people, okay??]

[Carrying away Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan already has a CP he belongs to. Although this man is very handsome, I will never betray Boss 1! New girls who have fallen into the livestream pit can take their make-up classes here → [Little Anchor x Big Boss]]

Yu Yan was looking at the comments with a complicated mood when his cell phone screen flashed, and a call from an unfamiliar phone number came in.

Yu Yan picked it up. "Hello?"

"Xiao Yan, are you home?" It was actually Good Show.

"Just arrived at the hotel, what's the matter?"

"Nothing, then that's good." Good Show laughed and said, "I thought President Yi didn't look too happy, and was afraid that he would cause trouble for you."

"He didn't cause any trouble for me." Yu Yan frowned and said, "He's a very good person."

Good Show nodded. "Is that so, that's good…"

When the doorbell rang, Yu Yan stood up and looked through the peephole. Lu Xiuhe had come back.

Lu Xiuhe's clothes were a complete mess. His coat… It didn't seem to be the one that he had been wearing before.

He felt that his heart was really bitter as soon as he saw Yu Yan, so he opened his mouth and said, "Xiao Yan—Laozi will never fucking date online for the rest of his life! Fake online dating can go to fucking hell!"

"…."

Good Show asked, "What's that noise?"

"My friend came back, I'm going to hang up now." As soon as he said that, Yu Yan hung up, and then asked the person in front of him, "What happened? Whose coat is that on you?"

These words poked directly at Lu Xiuhe's broken heart. "A fucking liar's!"

"You've been lied to?" Yu Yan asked, "Lied to about what?"

"Lied about…" Lu Xiuhe paused, gnashed his teeth in anger, and said, "Deceived Laozi's 20-year old pure young male heart."

"…."
