Mr. Yuan is Always Unhappy - Chap 6
Edited by Yummers
Yuan Rui was extremely happy to see Tomas again when he was going to his class, he even greeted the other first. But Tomas didn’t seem to be in a good mood that day, his attitude was even more aloof than the last time they met.
Zhao Zhengyi glimpsed at Yuan Rui, then asked Tomas, “What’s up with you? Why are you so down in the dumps?”
Tomas replied, “Nothing. If you aren’t busy after this, let’s go for a drink or two later.”
Zhao Zhengyi agreed, then Yuan Rui added from the side, “Can I go too?”
Tomas, “……”
Zhao Zhengyi, “……”
Yuan Rui took the hint. “Actually, I’m quite busy, so I won’t tag along.”
After separating with Tomas, Zhao Zhengyi couldn’t help but say, “Yuan-Ge, Tomas isn’t the type of person you think he is. Don’t judge him by his skinny physique and the fact that he’s shorter than you. He used to be in a dance academy and has learned martial arts, he can take out eight people by himself.”
Yuan Rui was surprised. “Woah, I used to think that only the Shaolin Temple taught martial arts. Dance academies sure have a lot of dark horses.”
Zhao Zhengyi said, “The main point of my statement is in the last part, think about it carefully again.”
Yuan Rui thought about it for a moment. Then, his eyes widened.
Zhao Zhengyi thought that he understood him and wrapped up the conversation. “So, you shouldn’t bear any weird thoughts towards him.”
Yuan Rui spoke excitedly from misunderstanding the main point, “He can fight and dance, so cool!”
“……”
After class that day, the teacher wanted Yuan Rui to stay behind by himself to give him some extra tips. Every day during class, he was extremely attentive and respected the teacher a lot. This made the teacher like him a bit more within the class of newbies who all had a bit of an attitude due to their popularity.
Zhao Zhengyi waited for a while outside. Once Yuan Rui walked out, he handed him his jacket while speaking, “Mr. Zheng just called earlier. He said he’ll be at his mom’s tonight, you don’t have to wait to eat dinner with him.”
Yuan Rui replied with a simple “oh”, but then continued, “How about I treat you tonight?”
Zhao Zhengyi was happy. “Okay okay! Thank you, Yuan-Ge.”
He left Yuan Rui on the side of the building as he went to the parking lot to get his car. He looked down to send Zheng Qiuyang a Wechat message. “I just got off class. Xiao Zhao told me that you called. I invited him to have a meal together. You should speak properly with your mom, don’t talk back too much.”
Zheng Qiuyang quickly sent back a message.
Zheng Qiuyang: “She called you a vixen again.”
Yuan Rui: laughing crying But I’m not pretty at all.”
Zheng Qiuyang: “She thinks you’re a little wh*re.”
Even though Zheng Qiuyang didn’t actually type the word out, Yuan Rui still blushed in an instant.
Zheng Qiuyang: “I said you were super pure.”
Yuan Rui: “Are you sure you didn’t mean dumb? [disappointed]”
Zheng Qiuyang: “She says she could tell with one look that you’re a pretentious bitch.”
Yuan Rui: “She even knows those types of vocabulary? How trendy.”
Zheng Qiuyang: “She surfs on Tianya.”
Yuan Rui: “Hahaha, no wonder she’s so fashionable.”
Zheng Qiuyang: “I’m going to eat with her now, talk to you later.”
Yuan Rui: “[kissy][kissy][kissy]”
Zheng Qiuyang didn’t reply.
Yuan Rui sighed, he felt a bit down.
He knew that Zheng Qiuyang’s mom didn’t like him, and he was able to accept it as well; but if she continues to dislike him like this, what are they going to do in the future? Zheng Qiuyang was already 31, his mom had been consistently trying to get him to go on blind dates. Waiting for the day she can hold a grandchild in her arms. Zheng Qiuyang would always play along and laugh it off since he wasn’t willing to get into a serious argument with her.
Yuan Rui didn’t want Zheng Qiuyang to have a bad relationship with his mother because of him. His own mom had passed away when he was young, he knew the pain of losing a mom. That was a void no other emotion or individual could fill.
He didn’t want Zheng Qiuyang to experience that kind of pain this early in his life.
Just as he was spacing out, a car stopped unsteadily in front of the greenbelt near him. Someone got out of the passenger seat, slamming the door a bit harshly as they walked away with no hesitation.
Hm? That’s Tomas.
Tomas didn’t see Yuan Rui because he was leaning against a wall that was hidden by a shadow.
Just as he was about to greet Tomas, he saw someone else jumping out of the driver’s seat. The person chased after Tomas quickly in large strides as he screamed, “What else do you want? I even came in person to pick you up from class, yet you’re giving me such an attitude. Don’t get so cocky when I’m giving you face!”
Yuan Rui instantly retreated his hand that was ready to wave. He stuck against the wall even more.
Tomas side-eyed the other, then said, “Do I need you to give me face? Do you even have any face? You faceless bastard, get out of my sight.”
Yuan Rui shouted loudly in his heart, Oh my gawd! He’s so handsome even when he’s scolding someone!
The person was enraged as he yelled unrestrained with a finger pointing at Tomas’ nose, “You Xie bastard! Are you just going to drag this on?! All I did was touch a girl’s chest! I’ve already touched so many in the past! I’ve even touched F cups, but the girl today was only a C cup, what’s there to be mad about? Don’t get on your high horse! What do you mean I’m faceless? You’re the one—”
Before he could even finish speaking, Tomas raised his hand and slapped him across the face.
Yuan Rui’s eyes widened. Zhao Zhengyi’s words, “he can take out eight people by himself”, rung by his ears.
The young male who received the slap didn’t make another sound. Tomas cut in, “Let’s break up.” He turned to leave as he finished speaking, his steps were hurried.
The young male stood there dumbly. Who knows if he was stunned by the slap or those words.
Yuan Rui thought impatiently, Hurry up and chase after him!
Ah, that was a bit dog blood like.
Though to his surprise, the person acted even more dog blood than he had imagined. As if he had just woke up, he pounced onto Tomas, who was over two meters away. He probably wanted to hug the other from behind, but due to the long distance, his whole body planted down onto the ground harshly.
Yuan Rui closed his eyes, not able to bear the sight. He could tell it hurt a lot just from the sound.
That person didn’t mind the pain though, his two hands wrapped around Tomas’s leg as he yelled, “You can’t leave! What do you mean break up?! Did I agree?!”
Tomas struggled a bit but couldn’t break out of it. He said coldly, “Let go.”
“No! I won’t let go!” That person seemed like he’d been wronged by the whole world. “How can you be such a scum? Just last night, you said you would love me for the rest of your life!”
Yuan Rui was speechless.
Tomas retorted, “And you said you could control yourself!”
That person cried out in grievance, “I only said I could control my lower half, I didn’t say I wouldn’t even touch! I’m straight! How can I refuse a pair of boobs that were delivered straight to my door?!”
Tomas spoke angrily, “Well, I’m straight too! Does that mean I can touch them too?”
“Don’t you dare!”
He sat on the ground as he hugged onto Tomas’ leg, the threat didn’t seem very imposing.
As Yuan Rui was being entertained by the show, the light from a car shone on Tomas and the other. Zhao Zhengyi couldn’t have chosen a better time to come and pick up Yuan Rui.
T/N: Tomas and the new guy are the main couple from another book of the same universe again. Tomas is also known as Xie Zhuxing/谢竹星. The other guy is Leo, better known as Wang Chao/王超.
The novel is currently being translated on CG too! Under the title “Peter Pan and Cinderella”
Unlike Mr. Yuan’s story though, this couple is a lot more dramatic and has a constant on and off relationship, so that is one thing to be aware of before starting their story.
