Sissy (Niang Niang Qiang) - Chap 11
Chapter 11
When Li Chengxiu came to school early that morning, before he even entered the school gate, Shao Qun suddenly jumped in front of him out of nowhere, blocking his path and staring at him with burning anger in his eyes.
Li Chengxiu was startled: “Wha… what’s wrong?”
Shao Qun grabbed his arm and furiously said, “Why didn’t you come to the apartment that day?”
Li Chengxiu didn’t understand: “Which day?”
“Saturday! On Friday after school, I clearly told you to come “tomorrow”! Why didn’t you come?”
“Ah… It was the weekend, and I didn’t go to school…”
“Even if there’s no school, if I tell you to come to the apartment, you have to show up. I waited for you the entire Saturday! Damn, I have no idea how to find you, you don’t even have a mobile phone… What do you need your ears for if you can’t understand the human language properly?”
Subconsciously Li Chengxiu took a step back, fearful of Shao Qun’s temper. At the same time he felt very guilty about the missed appointment. He had assumed that the “tomorrow” that Shao Qun was referring to was obviously Monday. But now that he thought that Shao Qun had waited for him for an entire day, he couldn’t help but feel warm inside his heart. The feeling of being valued was nice.
Li Chengxiu shrank his shoulders, timidly looked at Shao Qun with his bright eyes and sincerely apologized to him: “I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
Shao Qun was still boiling with anger, but seeing this expression of a frightened little animal in front of him, he couldn’t let it out.
It was only after he came back home that day that he realized that the next day was Saturday, and they didn’t have school. But after struggling with it for the whole night, he decided to go to the apartment the next day and wait for Li Chengxiu to show up. He thought he had made it clear that Li Chengxiu had to come to the apartment “tomorrow”. He could come, even if it was the weekend. And since Shao Qun had thought of it like that, why couldn’t Li Chengxiu have made the same conclusion?
But unexpectedly, Li Chengxiu didn’t show up. Shao Qun waited for him like an idiot in that small dilapidated apartment until the sun went down. He was so angry he wanted to smash every single thing inside.
If he knew where Li Chengxiu lived, he would have definitely gone to his house and killed him without another word.
He took something out of his pocket and stuffed it into Li Chengxiu’s hand: “Take it. Carry it with you in the future at any time. So I can find you at any time I want.”’ His tone was unassailable, and he repeatedly emphasized the words “any time.”
Li Chengxiu looked down and saw that he was holding a heavy little black box with rows of number keys on it.
In the 1990s, mobile phones were still a novelty. Although they were thick and heavy like bricks, they still cost a lot of money, and regular people couldn’t afford them at all. Li Chengxiu was too scared to even touch it, so he quickly pushed the phone back to Shao Qun: “This is too expensive. I don’t want it.”
Shao Qun shoved the phone into Li Chengxiu’s pocket: “If I ask you to take it, you take it. It doesn’t cost me any money. My dad has received a dozen of those. My family can’t use all of them.”
“But…I… I don’t know how to use it.”
“It’s very simple. Anyway, go to class first and during lunch break we’ll go to the apartment, and I’ll teach you.”
“I don’t need it.”
Shao Qun glared at him: “Who told you that you don’t need it? Do you want me to wait for you again in the future? Let me tell you something, young master! I haven’t waited for anyone for such a long time in my life. In order to avoid that kind of thing from happening again, you must take the phone.”
“But……”
“Stop talking nonsense! Go to class quickly. I’ll find you after school.”
Li Chengxiu first put the mobile phone in his school bag, thinking how to ensure its safety. Finally, he wrapped it in a handkerchief and stuffed it into one of the pockets. But then he thought about it for a while and realized that this wasn’t such a good idea. Last time he took out his handkerchief, Shao Qun laughed at him, saying that only girls would use that kind of thing. In the end, he had no other choice but to cover the phone in some scraps of paper and hide it between his pile of books.
He thought that if he lost that kind of expensive thing, he wouldn’t be able to pay for it, even if he sold himself. Besides, the school rules didn’t permit bringing mobile phones and pagers. It didn’t matter to Shao Qun and his shameless gang, of course. But if Li Chengxiu was caught, he didn’t know what he would do.
He kept his school bag on his lap for the whole morning, never letting it out of his sight. He was nervous, and he looked forward to the end of classes.
Shao Qun really came to pick him up after class, but to his disappointment, he was not alone. His three friends were right behind him.
Shao Qun pointed at them: “They want to look at the apartment.”
Li Chengxiu nodded with an “oh” but felt uncomfortable. He regarded the apartment to be a secret place for him and Shao Qun, just like the rooftop. He only wanted to share it with Shao Qun and nobody else. But he didn’t have the right to say “no”.
Li Wenxun and Shao Qun walked together, with their arms on each other’s shoulders.
Li Chengxiu walked behind them with his school bag on his back.
After entering the house, Big Li immediately complained: “Couldn’t you have rented a bigger place?” He then slumped onto the sofa and groaned comfortably.
Li Wenxun winked and smiled: “You have no idea what you’re talking about! This place is a so called “golden cage”[1], so it can’t be too big.”
Shao Qun cursed: “Fuck you guys, you can now entertain yourselves.” Then he went over to Li Chengxiu, whose face was flushed, and dragged him towards the bedroom: “Come here, I’ll teach you to use your mobile phone.”
Big Li and Li Wenxun booed: “Hey, hey, why are you entering the bridal chamber so soon? Don’t be so shameless!”
Li Chengxiu looked back at them awkwardly, and then looked at Shao Qun with embarrassment.
“Never mind them, they suck! Just ignore them,” Shao Qun kicked the door as he spoke, and the voices outside the bedroom became even louder.
Shao Qun dragged him onto the bed. The two of them were lying very close to each other, almost head to head, as their eyes were focused on the small black box in question.
“Look, it’s very simple. In fact, you only need to use two functions – making calls and sending text messages.”
Shao Qun fiddled with the buttons: “If you press this green button, you will be able to call the last number that was dialed on this phone, which in this case is mine. You actually only need to have my number. In order to call me, you just press this green button twice. Remember this key.”
Li Chengxiu nodded seriously.
“The next step is sending text messages. For that you need to click here, and then type… as long as you know pinyin[2], it won’t be an issue.” Shao Qun demonstrated how to type the message by entering “Shao Qun is the most handsome in the whole world” on the small green screen. These words made Li Chengxiu laugh.
After a while, Shao Qun’s cell phone rang, and he demonstrated the message he received to Li Chengxiu: “Here is a text message that you sent me.”
Li Chengxiu looked at the screen, and saw that the sender was saved in Shao Qun’s phone under “Xiu”[3]. For some reason, his face became very hot. He lowered his head slightly to hide his face behind his long bangs and muttered, “It was clearly written by you.”
“Well then, now you write something and send it to me.” Shao Qun handed him the phone, “Go on.”
Li Chengxiu held the phone in his trembling hands but even after thinking for a long time, he didn’t know what to write.
“You won’t or you can’t? Are you stupid?”
Li Chengxiu glanced at him shyly: “I can do it, it’s pretty simple.” After that he slowly pressed the keys with his thin white fingertips until the words “Shao Qun” appeared on the screen.
Shao Qun suddenly felt that he was short of breath, and at the same time he didn’t even dare to breathe. He was unconsciously really excited to see what Li Chengxiu would write to him.
But Li Chengxiu suddenly turned the phone away from him and smiled at Shao Qun, showing his little white teeth: “I’ll send it over, and then you can look.”
That slightly shy smile was youthful and beautiful, which made Li Chengxiu’s already pleasant facial features even more soft and amiable. Shao Qun felt his heart beating like a drum.
While he was still in a daze, his phone rang. He hurriedly picked it up and took a look. The message was just one short line: “Shao Qun is a bad guy”. He saw Li Chengxiu looking at him with a smile.
“Bastard, you dare call me names?” Shao Qun squinted his eyes, faking anger. He got up, threw himself onto Li Chengxiu and began to tickle him.
“Ahaha, ha, don’t! Stop making trouble, haha, it’s uncomfortable! Stop, Shao Qun…”
Shao Qun pressed his thin body under him, not so much tickling him anymore, but rather patting him down. Li Chengxiu was already out of breath.
Shao Qun was also tired of playing, but he couldn’t get down yet. He pretended to be furious and said, “Who are you calling a bad guy, huh? Say that I’m a good person! Am I not good to you?”
Li Chengxiu who had to beg for mercy again and again, finally gave up and quickly said, “Good, good person.”
“Am I nice to you?”
“Yes……”
Shao Qun looked at Li Chengxiu’s blushing little face, which was so soft and tender, that it seemed one could squeeze water out of it. He couldn’t help but pinch it. Then he turned over, satisfied, and threw the phone at Li Chengxiu: ” Send another message.”
Under Shao Qun’s supervision, Li Chengxiu sent him a lot of nice words. The two of them played with their mobile phones for more than half an hour and had a lot of fun.
When they were tired from playing, and the noon fatigue gradually hit them, they realized that they hadn’t even eaten yet.
Only then did Shao Qun remember that his friends were still outside. He decided to go out and discuss what to eat for lunch with them.
Before, both of them had completely ignored anything that happened outside the bedroom but now that they were paying attention, certain sounds suddenly became audible. Shao Qun and Li Chengxiu were stunned for a moment. They heard a strange moaning sound, and it seemed to be coming from the TV.
Shao Qun reacted at once – his face changed slightly, he pouted, and a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face.
Li Chengxiu stared at him suspiciously: “They’re just watching TV?”
Shao Qun glanced back at him, and suddenly got into a teasing mood. He dragged Li Chengxiu out of bed: “Come here, I’ll show you something fun.”
“What do you mean?”
Shao Qun pulled Li Chengxiu out of the room against his will. As soon as the two of them entered the living room, Li Chengxiu saw two white naked bodies entangled on the TV screen. He screamed in fright.
The three boys in the living room were startled by Li Chengxiu’s voice.
Big Li glared at him: “Fuck, you scared me to death! It felt as if my mother just walked in.” He then continued to stare at the screen, “Damn, it’s amazing! This woman’s butt is really big.”
Li Chengxiu blushed like a cooked shrimp and quickly turned away. His lips were trembling, and he looked at Shao Qun in panic.
Shao Qun grinned and forcibly pulled him onto the sofa: “What are you afraid of? How could a man not want to watch this?”
Li Wenxun stared at the screen while stuffing peanuts into his mouth: “That’s right. It wasn’t easy to get my hands on it. I stole it from my brother. So it’s a rare opportunity. If you don’t watch it today, you won’t be able to watch it ever again.”
Shao Qun watched the wonderful scenes on TV with interest, exclaiming “wow” once in a while. “A-wen, you’re really capable. The last one we borrowed was censored. But this one doesn’t have any of those black bars. This is too good, why didn’t you call me when you decided to watch it?”
“Call you? You and your little daughter-in-law were having some kind of heated fight over there. How dare I disturb you?”
“Fuck you.” Shao Qun grabbed Li Chengxiu’s hand and pulled it away from his face. “Why are you covering your face? What are you afraid of? This TV won’t eat you.”
Li Chengxiu was so frightened that he cried: “This… this is porn. We can’t watch it…” He couldn’t understand why they were watching such disgusting things, while still in junior high school. If somebody found out, he really didn’t know what would happen to them. Shao Qun’s image of a “good person” that Li Chengxiu had promoted him to recently was now suddenly a little shaken.
Big Li gave him a disdainful look: “Idiot, you can watch whatever you want, if you’re not scared. If you don’t tell and I don’t tell, who would ever find out? Maybe rather take a good look and learn something. Or if you ever have a girlfriend in the future, you won’t be able to do it.”
Li Wenxun sneered: “Big Li, you’re thinking about girls too much. Considering that they don’t even produce condoms in your size yet, once you learn how to “do it”, you’ll just change your fucking left hand to your right.”
Big Li was so angry that he shouted “ahhhh”, jumped at Li Wenxun and started fighting with him.
Shao Qun didn’t pay any attention to those two. His eyes never left the screen.
He had seen this kind of pornographic movies two or three times before, and although the scenes would make him a little dizzy every time, but now it was somehow different. When he saw the snow-white skin and the thin waist of the Japanese woman on TV, he unconsciously thought of Li Chengxiu, who was shrinking into a ball right next to him.
When compared to the woman on TV, Li Chengxiu’s skin was whiter, his waist was thinner, his legs were much longer, and his face was more delicate. If it was him right now who was spreading his legs, blushing all over his body and moaning with his eyes closed…
Shao Qun suddenly stood up, startling the guys around him.
When Li Chengxiu looked up at him in surprise, he happened to see Shao Qun looking down at him disdainfully. From this angle, his straight nose bridge looked as sharp as a knife, and his eyes were unbelievably fierce. Li Chengxiu had no idea how he had provoked him.
Shao Qun turned his head and walked towards the door: “I’ll go downstairs to buy something to eat.” He then slammed the door behind him and leaned against the wall in the corridor, gasping for breath.
He was not normal, he was really not normal. What the hell was going on?
He looked at the small tent that appeared in his crotch area, and a feeling of shame and fear filled his chest.
Why was he thinking of Li Chengxiu while watching porn? How could he think of him? He is a man. A man!
Shao Qun still didn’t want to admit that he got hard because of Li Chengxiu. He justified himself by thinking that this was just a normal male reaction when watching such a movie
He originally dragged Li Chengxiu to watch porn in order to tease him. Now, he wasn’t sure which one of them actually ended up teased.
Resisting the desire to reach inside his pants and touch himself, he leaned against the wall with his eyes closed. He waited until his hard-on disappeared and then dejectedly went downstairs to buy food.
While eating, nobody bothered with the movie anymore. The novelty had faded, everyone was tired of the repeating aesthetics, not to mention the general fatigue had settled in.
The uninvited guests had a playful conversation, while both Shao Qun and Li Chengxiu had a lot on their minds and seemed very silent.
After the meal, the boys leaned against the sofa to rest, smacking their lips joyfully.
Shao Qun looked at his watch. There was still more than an hour left before school was back in session. As he eyed the messy smokey room, he suddenly felt really annoyed.
He shouldn’t have allowed the guys to come over here. This place should have just been his and Li Chengxiu’s. He had originally planned to nap next to Li Chengxiu during the break, but now it was all ruined for them.
Irritated and angry, he got up and kicked Li Wenxun, who was sitting closest to him.
Li Wenxun cursed at him but didn’t pay him any mind and continued chatting with Big Li about the movie they had just watched, using a lot of foul language, which made Li Chengxiu pray for a hole to burrow into.
Shao Qun pulled at Li Chengxiu’s arm: “Let’s go back to the rooftop for a while. The guys are so noisy, and I can’t sleep.”
