Chapter 19 - Turned the Male Lead Green (19)

Subtitle: Yan Yan, Ruan Yan's a scum man

 

Chu Nan saw Ruan Yan’s dazed face – that first-rate face that was currently filled with shock – and couldn’t help but curve his lips up into a grin.

 

He probably broke from that strike ba?

 

He and Yan Yan were in love with each other, it wasn’t something that Ruan Yan could stick his nose into.

Chu Nan continued to beat Ruan Yan down in a light and breezy tone, “I didn’t want to kiss her in the haunted house at first, but Yan Yan was so proactive in searching for a kiss, putting her arms around my neck… I’ve let you see a joke.”

 

Ruan Yan was expressionless, but he clenched his fists tighter. He hadn’t gone searching for kisses at all! And he didn’t loop his arms around Chu Nan’s neck either.

 

A few moments later, he forced himself to calm down.

 

By doing this, Chu Nan could only be making up rumors to try to oppress him and make him stop pursuing Ran Yan.

 

Ruan Yan coldly replied, “Did you hallucinate from staying in the haunted house too long? You can’t bleed from kissing at all, are you trying to trick me?”

 

Chu Nan was shocked.

 

It was like he’d discovered a new continent as he stared at Ruan Yan with a disbelieving gaze, “You don’t even know this? Ruan Yan, hahaha, you haven’t kissed anyone before, right?!”

 

Chu Nan almost twisted his waist from laughing. What kind of crude, straight man was Ruan Yan, not even knowing this?

 

“Do you know what a passionate kiss with tongue is?” Chu Nan had his fill of laughter and began mocking Ruan Yan.

 

Ruan Yan was angered by his mockery, the expression on his face turning even more cold, “The number of people I’ve kissed before isn’t a lot either, just about 17 or 18 or so, but… showing compassion and caring for women is my natural ability, so my kissing techniques are very skilled. It definitely won’t draw blood.”

He lightly rebutted, mocking, “Chu Nan, the number of people you’ve kissed before must not be a lot, for you to have done it so rashly.”

 

At this time, Ruan Yan’s male instinct to compete and win over Chu Nan had been aroused. Of course, he hadn’t kissed anyone before, but he could definitely still make up so many elegant and interesting lies.

 

Ruan Yan’s acting was quite good, and Chu Nan believed his words momentarily, grabbing his hand, “The only person I’ve ever kissed is Yan Yan, and I’m perfectly willing to have only kissed her. But on the other hand, Ruan Yan, I’ve heard that you were never in relationship before at your previous school, so where did you go to find so many people to kiss?”

Ruan Yan didn’t want to be seen through and calmly replied in a graceful manner, “You can’t kiss someone if you’re not in a relationship with them? In the end, it all depends on whether both parties are willing or not, and they were all very willing to do so.”

 

Chu Nan’s expression immediately darkened. This Ruan Yan was even more frivolous and irresponsible than he had imagined. His Casanova ways had already become second nature.

 

Chu Nan measured Ruan Yan with an unkind gaze, “I don’t care about other places, but you better behave yourself at Qin Lin High. If I hear that you’re engaging in those messy affairs, trying to seduce the girls at Qin Lin, then you won’t even have to think about sitting the university entrance exam. In particular, don’t you dare to touch Yan Yan.”

Ruan Yan replied, “I never seduce people.”

 

A rare smile flashed through his eyes along with a hint of elegant contempt, “Even if it’s just by appearance alone, it’s usually other people who want to get close to me.”

Like you, Chu Nan.

 

Even though Chu Nan was domineering and undisciplined, but he himself believed that his character was far better than the Ruan Yan who had good grades and appeared well educated, but was actually full of evil and deceit.

 

He gave a cold snort, no longer bothering to engage in a pointless verbal dispute with Ruan Yan.

 

Chu Nan took out his phone, wanting to give Yan Yan a call, only to see the message that said that Yan Yan had already gone home first.

 

He was quite disheartened, but he couldn’t show it in front of Ruan Yan. After randomly finding a ghost NPCs shirt to wear, he led him out of the haunted house.

 

Ju Ping and Chen Hui hadn’t dared to venture too deep into the haunted house and were already waiting at the entrance.

 

It was already midnight now, and Chen Hui suggested for them to eat dinner together. Ruan Yan had been frightened several times today and naturally rejected his suggestion.

 

“Let’s go back then.” Chu Nan wore his helmet and climbed onto the motorbike.

 

Ruan Yan replied, “It’s already quite late, you can send me back directly. I’ll get the books I left at your house next week.”

 

“Ok.” Chu Nan unwillingly agreed, after all, he was the one who had brought Ruan Yan out, and if he didn’t sent him back safely, then Ruan Yan would complain to his grandma.

 

Chen Hui’s eyes flashed, “Brother Chu, Ruan… wasn’t Brother Ruan feeling uncomfortable? Isn’t it not too good for him to ride a motorbike back? How about I send Brother Ruan back?”

 

Chu Nan wanted to agree at first, but then Ruan Yan, who was sitting at the back of the motorcycle suddenly stretched out his hands and hugged his waist, quietly whispering, “I don’t sit on stranger’s cars.”

 

His back was facing Chen Hui, so Chen Hui couldn’t hear.

 

Only after he notified Chu Nan did Ruan Yan calmly turn around and politely say, “No worries, Chu Nan and I live in the same direction. Thank you for your kindness.”

 

Chen Hui was slightly regretful, but didn’t chase the matter further.

 

Only when Chu Nan started the motorcycle and rode far away did he ask, “Being so careful, do you think you’re female?”

 

Ruan Yan didn’t bother to reply, and there were no more exchanges between them for the entire way.

 

Very quickly, Chu Nan followed the GPS and stopped before Ruan Yan’s family’s mansion.

 

Ruan Yan’s family’s mansion was very big. Just like those magnificent, luxurious European castles, there were beautiful roses blooming in the gardens, looking stunningly gorgeous when the wind blew over them.

 

Ruan Yan got off the motorcycle first. He had just opened the main gate and had yet to enter the garden when the cat upstairs had heard the noise and came mewing downstairs, bounding joyfully towards him.

 

The Russian-blue cat’s eyes sparkled, energetically leaping into Ruan Yan’s arms when it was still seven or eight steps away.

 

Ruan Yan was forced to take a step back by that huge force rushing towards him, and just happened to fall into Chu Nan’s embrace.

 

Ruan Yan had just come back to his senses when he suddenly reacted to the pain of colliding into Chu Nan’s hard, solid chest, and subconsciously let out a “wu” sound.

 

It sounded softly, as if the person had suffered some incredible grievance, and was forced to undergo immense pain.

 

A crisp, milky voice. It was precisely the voice Ran Yan used when she was acting spoilt.

 

Chu Nan’s ears almost exploded. He thought he’d heard wrongly and muttered in a low voice, “What was that voice of yours just now?”

 

Ruan Yan was almost angered to death by the cat in his arms, but he coldly replied, “It was too windy on the way back, I’ve got a bit of a cold.”

 

Finished speaking, he left Chu Nan’s embrace. The cat drooped its tail and curled itself peacefully in the cold beauty’s arms.

 

Chu Nan felt that there was something off, but Ruan Yan’s voice truly was too calm and rational, completely washing away the feeling of coquettishness just then.

 

Chu Nan frowned, changing the topic, “You can’t even stand properly from a cat jumping on you, yet you still want to pursue Yan Yan. Ruan Yan, I advise you to give up earlier.”

 

Ruan Yan hugged the Russian-blue cat in his arms. “Chu Nan, a beautiful girl has the right to enjoy the pursuit of any man. You’re so scared… could it be that you’re afraid of losing to me?”

 

Chu Nan gave a cold smile, “What kind of sweet dream are you having?”

His gaze unwittingly drifted to the cat in Ruan Yan’s embrace. The Russian-blue was sleeping sweetly, yet seemingly uncomfortable, it suddenly switched to a new position.

 

The patch of skin that had been pressed down on by the cat displayed itself. It had already turned red.

 

A soft, light cat had pressed on that arm for less than 5 minutes and yet it was already red.

 

Chu Nan also didn’t know what was wrong with himself, but he suddenly thought of how Yan Yan had lightly hit him last time, only for her own hand to turn red.

 

Chu Nan lowered his eyes, and subconsciously muttered with emotions even he himself could not discern, “Ran Yan, Ruan Yan… Your name is actually quite similar to Yan Yan’s.”

 

The speaker himself didn’t mean anything, but what the listener heard was full of intent.

 

A sense of danger erupted from every single one of Ruan Yan’s cells, and he coldly replied, “Of course it’s similar, they're couple names. Even more to prove that me and Ran Yan are a pair made in heaven.”

 

F**k!

 

This sentence really was too provoking and Chu Nan’s train of thought was completely interrupted. Sneering coldly, he said viciously, “Ruan Yan, I’ve discovered that you’re not good at anything else, but you’re quite talented at seeking death. You can’t even beat a cat. If you make me angry, aren’t you scared that I’ll press you down and do you to death? (1)”

 

Ruan Yan was too lazy to say anything more with him. Waking up the Russian-blue in his arms, he picked it up and waved it’s claw at Chu Nan. “Humans have been divided between the martial and the literary since the ancient times. You’re bullying a cat and a scholar, you’re also quite shameless.”

 

In terms of verbal battle, Chu Nan truly couldn’t beat Ruan Yan. But Ruan Yan’s body was quite delicate; he still had quite a deep impression towards being pushed against the wall last time.

 

Because of this, Ruan Yan only entered the Ruan manor holding the cat after Chu Nan rode the motorbike away in anger.

 

Butler Lin personally made soup for him, its fragrance spreading far and wide.

 

The cat in Ruan Yan’s arms suddenly became energetic, jumping down from Ruan Yan’s arms, seemingly wanting to eat some too.

 

The only reason why Ruan Yan had been willing to hold it was because it hadn’t been shedding skin recently, and because he was going to immediately change his clothes after.

 

Butler Lin said, “Young Master, you’re back! The master and madam called today asking about you, wondering why you weren’t at home during the day.”

 

Ruan Yan replied, “I went to go home tutoring.”

 

“Pai!” The spoon in Butler Lin’s hand fell to the ground. His lips trembled, “Y-young master… Did you finish spending the $500 000 pocket money from last month? How can you tutor someone? No wonder the master said that you didn’t get enough pocket money today, the master really is knowledgeable.”

 

Ruan Yan: …Perhaps he was scared too much today, even forgetting what Butler Lin’s personality was like.

 

Ruan Yan calmed down, “I went to go pick a home tutor for myself. There were no suitable ones. Uncle Lin, help me find a boxing tutor.”

 

He wouldn’t always let himself be suppressed by Chu Nan.

 

According to the importance (2) that Chu Nan treated Ran Yan with, when it came to the Ruan Yan x Ran Yan phase, it was estimated that he would definitely be beaten into a pancake by Chu Nan.

 

Ruan Yan desperately needed to learn boxing. Only after Butler Lin agreed did he return to wash up.

 

Chu Nan’s phone call also came at this time, “Yan Yan, are you sleeping yet? Were you scared after going to the haunted house today?”

 

Ruan Yan was afraid that Chu Nan hadn’t forgotten the sound he’d subconsciously made and specially made his voice more coquettish, becoming vastly different from the quality of his natural voice.

 

He aggrievedly replied, “Scared… there was no one there to care about me either. I met a person along the way there and when they saw me being chased by a ghost, rather than helping me, they mocked me instead. Chu Nan~”

 

There was a strong sense of coquettishness in his voice, “Tell me, why are human hearts so evil!”

 

Chu Nan’s desire to protect ‘her’ exploded after hearing ‘her’ words, “Yan Yan, not everyone is a good person. In the future, I’ll protect you. Since you were scared today, why did you leave by yourself without waiting for me?”

 

Ruan Yan continued to pretend, “Didn’t I already tell you? What I was wearing didn’t look nice today, so I didn’t dare to let you see me.”

 

Chu Nan’s heart was extremely satisfied. Yan Yan liked him way too much, even to the point of slightly losing herself.

 

Chu Nan felt hurt on her behalf, “No matter what you look like, I’ll always like to look at you. From now on, you’re not allowed to leave like you did today.”

 

He continued, “I’ll eat vinegar (3). Today, the person I brought back on my car was Ruan Yan, whilst everyone else brought back their girlfriends. Yan Yan, I miss you.”

 

Ruan Yan sarcastically thought, carrying me makes you feel so wronged, heh.

 

You’re motorbike’s so fast and dangerous. Apart from looking good on the outside, there’s no other good aspect about it.

 

Ruan Yan wasn’t happy, and replied with dissatisfaction, “Ying, you’re so fake. If you really miss me, then you wouldn’t not come to find me for two days.”

 

Chu Nan replied, “It’s because I’ve been attending tutoring these couple of days. When my grades get better later on, I can directly tutor you myself and you wouldn’t have to go find Ruan Yan anymore.”

 

Chu Nan narrowed his eyes, “Today, Ruan Yan personally admitted that he’s kissed more than forty to fifty girls, perhaps even going further. Moreover, these tens of girls didn’t weren’t even given a position by his side.”

 

Ruan Yan: …

 

When did he say forty or fifty? He obviously said seventeen to eighteen!

 

Chu Nan was making things up again.

 

Ruan Yan was angered till his chest felt musty, yet he couldn’t even expose him, and could only weakly reply, “Re-really so many? Chu Nan, did you remember wrongly? Isn’t this a bit too much?”

 

Chu Nan scoffed and quickly beat the iron whilst it was hot, “I didn’t remember wrongly. Even if I did, then there’s only more, not less. Yan Yan, Ruan Yan’s just a hypocritical lil’ white face, a scum male! He’s so young yet he’s already so licentious, his kidney must be really bad!”

 

Kid-kidney wasn’t good? How dare you insult my kidney for being bad?!

 

Ruan Yan’s chest was hurting when Chu Nan asked him, “Don’t you agree? Isn’t he scum?”

 

Ruan Yan: “…Scum… Chu Nan, I’m a bit tired, I’m going to rest now.”

Chu Nan had gotten addicted to bad mouthing Ruan Yan and was slightly disappointed, “Yan Yan, why are you sleeping so quickly today?”

 

“Why do you care? Chu Nan, you even dare to ask about these female things, ying!” Ruan Yan was so angry that he immediately hung up the phone.

Chu Nan was stunned. Why was Yan Yan angry again?

 

Ruan Yan lay down in bed, considering how to get revenge on the little wild cat, and Chu Nan cursing his kidneys.

 

Since Chu Nan could say bad things about Ruan Yan to Ran Yan…

 

Then couldn’t Ruan Yan also tell Ran Yan bad things about Chu Nan?

 

Translator’s Notes:

(1) However you want to understand it is fine ahahaha

(2) Literal translation would be “nervousness”, but I feel like it doesn’t really make a lot of sense when you read it English. Basically, because of how much Chu Nan treasures Ran Yan, he always treats her matters with a lot of caution and importance, so it can kinda… be described as nervousness (that’s how I understood it- bit weird, but eh…)

(3) I’ll be jealous (I think I explained this somewhere else already, hmm…)

 

Lol, this is how it feels to smash your own foot hahahahah
