Love Rival Is Getting Prettier Everyday - Chap 207
Chapter 207: Stop Flirting
Bai Qingquan said, “My friends say that we are progressing too fast. It doesn’t seem to be love.”
Shi Lei said, “But you’re eager as well.”
Bai Qingquan said, “Which is why you need to have restraint.”
“Don’t put the responsibility on me. I’m not a person with strong self-control,” Shi Lei said.
“Then how have you spent all these years?”
Shi Lei laughed. “It’s different. You’re different from others.”
Bai Qingquan got up with a smile and ran to the bathroom to wash the towels.
Shi Lei sighed, looked at his lower body, and then continued to scrape the wall. He scraped fiercely as his teeth clenched tightly while his fingers began to work hard, as if it wasn’t the wall he was scraping but Bai Qingquan.
After a busy morning and considering that the air in the room was too hot, they decided to go out to eat instead of ordering takeout. Despite wearing a mask, Bai Qingquan would often be recognized before, but when he was walking with Shi Lei, no one seemed to associate him as a big star.
With the way Shi Lei was dressed and his appearance, he looked more like a builder. Bai Qingquan noticed that Shi Lei was relatively handsome among passersby, and his figure was good as he saw several people secretly looking at him. It was also possible that they were staring at him… Since it was such a hot day, he still had a mask on.
Bai Qingquan wanted to go to a small restaurant to eat. He was excited today, and he wanted to experience the lives of ordinary people to the very end.
“Are you sure?” Shi Lei said, “I’m afraid someone will recognize you.”
“Let’s try,” Bai Qingquan said. The two entered a ramen restaurant.
It was lunchtime, and there were a lot of people in the shop. The two of them found a table for two closest to the inside by the counter. Bai Qingquan sat on the inner side facing inward, while Shi Lei sat facing outward as they ordered three bowls of Lanzhou ramen.
Two of those bowls were for Shi Lei, as he had a big appetite. He was really able to eat.
When the ramen came, Bai Qingquan took off his mask and found that no one was looking at him. Most likely, no one would expect a big star like him to appear in such an inconspicuous restaurant like this.
Bai Qingquan became excited, as he hadn’t eaten like this for a long time. He took out his phone and took a selfie that also captured the ramen restaurant and Shi Lei in the mirror, and then sent the photo to Shen Jintai.
At this time, Shen Jintai was also having lunch. He clicked on the picture and glanced at it. He found that Shi Lei was very photogenic. When he was wearing a very simple outfit, he was more handsome than when he dressed formally. Bai Qingquan was smiling brightly in the photo. Even though he was very close to the camera, his face looked a bit off, but his beauty could still be seen, while Shi Lei sat upright on the other side, looking at the camera very happily.
Shen Jintai sent a: [?]
Bai Qingquan replied: [Just showing you where we’re eating!]
Shen Jintai had already seen that it was a small restaurant, and there were many other guests sitting around. The owner was sitting outside near the door between the back kitchen and the front hall, peeling green onions. Everything looked down to earth.
Shen Jintai felt that Bai Qingquan was really captivated by Shi Lei and had completely fallen. The fairy was now mortal, as he had found an ordinary man. When he looked at Bai Qingquan’s eyes, he saw how bright they were and thought how happy Bai Qingquan was being with Shi Lei. He had never seen him smile so sweetly and casually.
Shen Jintai could only hope that Shi Lei was a good man and wouldn’t disappoint him.
Li Meilan, who was nearby and saw Shi Lei’s photo, couldn’t help but exclaim, “Wow.”
“Wow what?” Shen Jintai said.
“Who is this man? So handsome.”
“Handsome?” Shen Jintai asked.
“Is he amateur? Among them, this kind of look could be very handsome, as there aren’t really many men who are suitable to wear a crew cut. If you give him a nice look and apply makeup, it’ll definitely not be a problem for him to enter the entertainment industry, since they lack this kind of hormonal masculinity.”
There were some things that she found inconvenient to say. As a married person, she was better able to understand this type of man. He’s very suitable for being a husband, as he can make you feel particularly safe. He’s handsome and moderate, with a very homely feeling to him.
Bai Qingquan was sweating profusely. His hair looked even darker from the dampness, and his mouth was red, and his skin was flushed. Shi Lei secretly looked at him and suddenly saw the boss leaning over and staring at Bai Qingquan.
He was taken aback when he heard the boss ask, “Are you… the actor that plays Emperor Zhou Jing?”
Bai Qingquan once again felt the landmark significance of . He smiled and looked at the owner generously. “Many people say that I look like him.”
The owner seemed to actually believe him as she said, “So it seems. I was just thinking what kind of big star would come to a small shop like this to eat.”
When the two came out of the restaurant, Bai Qingquan laughed while Shi Lei said, “Put on the masks.”
Since it was hot, with the sun blazing outside, there weren’t many pedestrians on the street. Bai Qingquan looked around and stroked back his hair as he said, “I don’t know who Bai Qingquan is. My name is Bai Shu.”
Bai Qingquan was cautious at first when he went to a small restaurant to eat, but after eating, he completely let go. He had never felt so relaxed in so many years. He felt that Shi Lei’s existence had become his umbrella. He only needed to cover himself up a bit, and no one would recognize him.
“You should find me some builder’s clothes to wear,” he said to Shi Lei.
The next time Shi Lei came, he really brought one. Bai Qingquan had to change into it in the car as Shi Lei drove in front. Shi Lei looked into the rearview mirror and saw Bai Qingquan taking off his shirt, revealing his fair chest. Suddenly, he felt a burst of fire.
Shi Lei wanted to fully possess Bai Qingquan, but he was holding himself back out of love. He was a smart man. He came here and started from scratch and had seen the world. When Bai Qingquan contacted him, he knew what kind of person Bai Qingquan was.
Bai Qingquan was quite special. Sometimes he was sulky, and he was often coquettish but on the conservative side. He had been immersed in the entertainment industry for so many years and was still very simple.
For such a simple person, he wasn’t willing to take him too quickly, hoping to give Bai Qingquan the full experience of falling in love… There was also a more important reason as well. Deep inside, he was quite lustful. Just the thought of Bai Qingquan would turn his thoughts into perversion. He didn’t want to scare Bai Qingquan and hoped that he’d slowly get used to him, which would take time.
Bai Qingquan’s friends were not easy to provoke. They were all very wary of him. If he wanted to win the affirmation of these friends, he also must restrain himself. Bai Qingquan trusted his friends very much, so when he got together with Bai Qingquan in the future, he would inevitably have to deal with them.
His own conditions couldn’t be compared to them. If he was rejected and ostracized by them, it would cause a dilemma for Bai Qingquan, who would be caught in the middle. Thus, he must endure the waves made by his white moonlight.
Bai Qingquan took off his t-shirt in the back seat. He wasn’t wearing anything underneath. He put on his overalls, took off his pants, stretched out his two long, fair legs, and put them on. When he lifted his pants, he said, “It seems to fit me just right.”
“I bought it according to your size,” Shi Lei said.
Bai Qingquan stroked his hair, took another selfie, and sent it to Shen Jintai.
“You and Shen Jintai are pretty close. You seem to tell him everything.”
Bai Qingquan said, “He’s my good sister… good brother.”
After speaking, he raised his head and smiled.
Shi Lei laughed. Some people resented men saying words like “sister”, while others didn’t care. Take him for example, who found it quite cute. He asked, “Is your sister not very fond of me?”
“No, he just cares about me.” Bai Qingquan laid down on his seat and said, “He’s afraid that you’ll try to bed me.”
Shi Lei usually didn’t talk to Bai Qingquan about these topics, so he didn’t reply. Bai Qingquan felt that Shi Lei had been very restrained these past few days, though he didn’t feel like he was purposefully doing it because he told him to.
Well… there was no need to be so restrained. Going to bed with each other could be delayed for a while, but it was still okay to kiss and touch. This wasn’t Shi Lei’s desire, but his own.
The last time Shi Lei kissed him was the day when the two of them confirmed their relationship. It had been a few days since that incident. Apart from working on the new house and talking together, Shi Lei didn’t do anything else. He would always send him back at night before he even got tired.
But he wanted to be tired, and he especially liked to see Shi Lei blushing, confused by his love for him. He felt Shi Lei’s strong desire for him, and this desire also stimulated him. He was also a person with heavy desire, and he felt that sex was just as important as love. Moreover, given Shi Lei’s appearance and physique, it would be such a waste if they didn’t have any intimacy.
Which led him to today. He was pulling tricks at every turn for the past few days, like how he deliberately changed his clothes in the car just now to pique Shi Lei’s interest, but it seemed Shi Lei was unmoved.
Ah, he wanted to kiss. The feeling of kissing was so beautiful that he wanted to relive it. A normal love should be gradual, taken step by step, to finally reach the harmony of life.
