“Your roommate walks around the dorm shirtless?”
Gu Yunjue accompanied Shen Qingyan back to his dorm, only to be greeted by a shirtless man as soon as they walked in.
Instinctively, Gu Yunjue covered Shen Qingyan’s eyes.
Shen Qingyan: “…”
Great God Gu, we’re all guys here, is this really necessary? How embarrassing!
“What are you doing!” Shen Qingyan’s roommate laughed. “Qingyan, you two are really something.”
Thankfully, his roommate didn’t take it seriously.
At that moment, Mu Weiyun rushed out of the bathroom in a hurry. When he saw that Shen Qingyan had brought Gu Yunjue back, his feelings were quite complicated. He gave a cheerful laugh and patted his roommate’s shoulder. “Laoda1Lit. Old Big, could mean Boss, used to refer to the oldest. broke up with his girlfriend, so he’s moving into the dorm starting today.”
“Fuck,” Laoda’s smile faded. “Laosi2Old Fourth, why do you have to bring that up? Anyway, are you done showering? I’m going in now.”
As he spoke, Laoda tossed his pants aside.
Gu Yunjue’s pupils shook with displeasure. “Why isn’t he wearing pants either!”
To Gu Yunjue’s reaction, Shen Qingyan could only respond dryly, “This is a men’s dorm, it’s totally normal.”
“No way, come out with me first!”
Gu Yunjue’s face was dark with anger. Shen Qingyan had no choice but to glance at Mu Weiyun before following Gu Yunjue out.
Halfway down the hall, Shen Qingyan received a message from Mu Weiyun: “Wow, God Gu is so jealous, he must be crazy about you.”
Shen Qingyan’s vision went black for a moment. He replied with one word: “Screw off!”
What’s with that sarcastic tone?
“J-junior, slow down,” Shen Qingyan noticed Gu Yunjue walking faster and faster, and he could barely keep up. “What are you angry about?”
It couldn’t really be jealousy, right? This kind of thing happening in a men’s dorm was totally normal.
When they reached the small grove, Gu Yunjue finally stopped. In front of Shen Qingyan, he opened an app and said coldly, “I’ve booked you a room at the hotel by the campus gate for two days and nights. You’ll stay there for these two days. By the way, did you bring your ID?”
Is this… it? Is it happening?
Shen Qingyan’s heart was about to leap out of his chest. Were things moving this fast?
Or… Shen Qingyan suddenly thought of something. Did Gu Yunjue get turned on after seeing Laoda’s body?
“Did you bring it?” Gu Yunjue asked impatiently. “If you didn’t, tell me and I’ll go back to get it for you.”
Shen Qingyan steadied himself and replied with a complicated expression, “I brought it.”
However, thinking of the hotel’s price, Shen Qingyan hesitated. “Why don’t we book the hotel at the back gate instead? It’s clean too, and only costs a hundred yuan per night. Junior, the one you booked costs five hundred yuan a day.”
Gu Yunjue stared at Shen Qingyan with a dark expression. “Do you think I can’t afford that?”
“No no, of course you can,” Shen Qingyan gave a dry laugh. “Then, I’ll listen to you.”
Come to think of it, why did it matter what reason Gu Yunjue had for booking the hotel?
The important part was what would happen after!
Shen Qingyan swallowed and carefully looked Gu Yunjue up and down.
Not bad. He’s definitely top-tier. He really hit the jackpot.
“Since that’s settled, let’s go.”
Gu Yunjue wanted to hold Shen Qingyan’s hand, but remembering his previous resistance, he held back.
After arriving at the hotel room, Shen Qingyan’s heart beat even more violently, almost jumping out of his chest.
Tonight, he was going to… going to…
“Alright, you’re not allowed to return to the dorm these two nights,” Gu Yunjue handed the key card to Shen Qingyan. “I’ll have someone bring your change of clothes later.”
Shen Qingyan suddenly felt something was off. “Junior, are you leaving now?”
“Yes,” Gu Yunjue looked at Shen Qingyan in confusion. “I have class tonight and things to do tomorrow, but you’re not allowed to go back.”
So, Gu Yunjue had booked a room just for him alone.
Shen Qingyan was dumbfounded. He wanted to ask something, but Gu Yunjue left quickly with a cold face, leaving behind a confused Shen Qingyan.
Great God Gu, what kind of play are you going for? Could you at least explain?!
Confused, Shen Qingyan immediately contacted his advisor Mu Weiyun.
At that moment, Mu Weiyun was applying a face mask, and his large face appeared on the screen.
Shen Qingyan moved the phone away in disgust, and Mu Weiyun suddenly exclaimed.
“Holy shit, Shen Xiao Yan, you’re actually at a hotel with God Gu? That’s fast!”
Shen Qingyan had a headache. “You can tell where I am?”
“Of course,” Mu Weiyun held back an eye roll. “It’s so obvious. Hey, why are you video calling me instead of getting ready? Am I part of your play or something?”
Shen Qingyan’s face darkened. “Get lost! Can’t you see I’m alone here?”
“Huh?” Mu Weiyun blinked. “Where’s your boyfriend? Taking a shower?”
The word “boyfriend” made Shen Qingyan blush. He coughed lightly before saying, “He… went back to school.”
Mu Weiyun was stunned. “Wait, why did he go back to school? Oh right, they have class, so tonight you guys…”
“He has class tonight and he’s busy tomorrow too,” Shen Qingyan coldly cut off Mu Weiyun’s words. “I just want to know what Gu Yunjue means by this. Why suddenly make me stay at a hotel for two days? What’s wrong with him!”
Mu Weiyun was too shocked to speak. “Well, I don’t know either. Hey, maybe he doesn’t want you to see Laoda’s body?”
Shen Qingyan was speechless. “Do you think that’s possible?”
“Why not!” Mu Weiyun declared confidently. “Maybe his possessiveness is just that strong!”
Shen Qingyan replied with six words: “Dot dot dot dot dot dot.”

Meanwhile, Gu Yunjue called Li Xun with a dark face. “Are you free tomorrow? I think I want to buy a house.”
“What?” Li Xun was in class and covered his phone in surprise. “Wait, let’s talk more tonight.”
Buy a house? Why did Yunjue want to buy a house?
Vaguely, Li Xun had a feeling things were about to spiral out of control.
That night, in the same private room.
Li Xun noticed Gu Yunjue was indeed looking at apartments near the school. He couldn’t help saying, “Doesn’t your dad forbid you from living off campus? If he finds out, your good days are over.”
“I’m not living off campus, and the school doesn’t allow first-year students to anyway,” Gu Yunjue didn’t look up. “I want Senior to live there.”
“Senior?” Li Xun was stunned before realizing this “Senior” was Shen Qingyan. He couldn’t help but feel annoyed. “How long have you even known each other? Why are you buying him a house? Just transfer him some money if you want to fool around. What’s the point of buying a house?”
Gu Yunjue finally looked up. “I’ve made arrangements. It’s a ready-built property, full payment. Since we need it habitable by the day after tomorrow, I bought a second-hand one. Fortunately, no one has lived there before.”
Li Xun was impressed by Gu Yunjue’s speed. “Yunjue, what are you really thinking?”
“Since I’ve made Shen Qingyan mine, naturally I can’t let him live in the dorm,” Gu Yunjue said unhappily. “I won’t allow him to live with other men.”
Li Xun was stunned before saying, “But it’s a men’s dorm, how could he not live with other men?”
“That’s why I’ll have him move out,” Gu Yunjue’s expression was cold. “He’s mine now, how can he look at other men’s bodies?”
Li Xun: “…Alright then.”

Shen Qingyan spent two days in a daze until Gu Yunjue finally came to see him on the third day.
“Junior, I thought you weren’t going to show up.”
Shen Qingyan’s pouting face made him want to kiss it, but seeing his expression made him unhappy. “What, are you happy not seeing me?”
“How could you think that?” Shen Qingyan’s eyes widened. “I-I’m happy to see you.”
If he wasn’t afraid Gu Yunjue would find him undignified, he would even bite those lips!
“If that’s how you feel, then that’s perfect,” Gu Yunjue nodded. “Let’s go, I’ll take you somewhere.”
When Gu Yunjue took him to an apartment complex this time, Shen Qingyan didn’t dare to get his hopes up.
What if Gu Yunjue acted weird again? The higher the hopes, the bigger the disappointment. He understood that.
But this time, when Gu Yunjue handed him a key, Shen Qingyan was dumbfounded. He asked blankly, “Junior, what does this mean?”
“From now on, you’ll live here,” Gu Yunjue said expressionlessly. “I remember third-year students don’t need approval to live off campus.”
Indeed, some majors started internships in their third year.
“But why do I need to live here?” Shen Qingyan carefully probed. “Junior, what about you?”
Could they be starting their happy cohabitation life?
“I’ll come by occasionally,” Gu Yunjue said deeply. “Shen Qingyan, you’re mine now. I won’t allow you to live with other men.”
Just thinking about Shen Qingyan facing those shirtless men every day made Gu Yunjue unhappy.
Even if Shen Qingyan was straight, he was still unhappy about it.
“Oh, so that’s why,” Shen Qingyan’s face was burning red. He said in a tiny voice, “How about I pay the rent?”
After all, Gu Yunjue’s fifty thousand yuan was still burning a hole in his pocket.
“No need,” Gu Yunjue said casually. “I’ve already bought this apartment.”
Shen Qingyan was stunned. So this was what being rich was like? He felt dizzy.
While Shen Qingyan was in a daze, Gu Yunjue lifted his chin.
“Shen Qingyan, check your phone.”
“Hm?” Shen Qingyan opened his phone to find Gu Yunjue had transferred him another fifty-two thousand.
Just started dating and he’d already taken over a hundred thousand from someone?
Shen Qingyan pinched his thigh. “Junior, this is too much money. I-I can’t take it!”
What kind of play was Gu Yunjue going for? Was it necessary to transfer so much money?
Was this… preparation money for sending him to the hospital?
“Take it since I’m giving it to you,” Gu Yunjue pointed to the kitchen. “I need to go back to school now, but I’ll return at nine tonight. You need to have dinner ready for me.”
Shen Qingyan nodded dazedly, then immediately complained to Mu Weiyun.
“Military Advisor, I feel like Gu Yunjue hired me as a housekeeper. It’s been days and we haven’t even kissed!”
Mu Weiyun was also confused and could only tell him, “This might be the calm before the storm. You should prepare yourself for some S&M.”
