From a nobody online dating to a top love brain - Chapter 44

Bei Yuye turned his eyes away and urged Yu Nan to try on the red dress.

Yu Nan didn’t mind trying on the dress, but he felt a bit uneasy with Bei Yuye in the room. He quickly grabbed the dress and ran into the bathroom. “I’ll change in the bathroom.”

It was easy to put on the dress, but as hs looked at himself in the mirror, he felt a bit out of place. He had worn dresses before, so why did he feel such a strong sense of discomfort today?

It wasn’t until he saw his short, jet-black hair in the mirror that he realized why.

This was the first time he wore a dress without makeup or a wig. In the past, he had felt no discomfort because wearing a dress made him feel like a different person. This time, wearing a dress while showing his true appearance felt strange.

It was a bit odd. He had never felt this way while wearing a wig before. As he stared at his chest in the mirror, he noticed it was bare. He covered his face, feeling increasingly embarrassed.

“Nan Nan, can I come in?” 

“It doesn’t seem appropriate,” Yu Nan replied.

Bei Yuye pushed the door open and entered. The overhead light in the bathroom illuminated Yu Nan’s already fair skin, and the blood-red dress created a striking contrast against his snow-white complexion. Bei Yuye reached out to tie the straps of the dress behind Yu Nan.

“Very pretty, just as I imagined,” he said, taking Yu Nan’s hand and gently stroking his knuckles.

Only his left ring finger still bore a ring; Yu Nan wasn’t wearing one.

After being in a cold war for a while, Nan Nan must have felt too shy to wear it. Bei Yuye smiled lightly and asked, “When will Nan Nan wear his ring?”

Yu Nan stiffened for a moment, unsure how to explain that the one he bought wasn’t even a couple’s ring.

“Bei Bei, little mouth.” Maybe he would get himself another ring later; he hadn’t worn any small accessories yet.

Yu Nan tilted his neck to give him a gentle peck on the lips, looking into Bei Yuye’s eyes with anticipation. He only knew how to peck, but Bei Yuye kissed very well.

His body was wrapped in a strong embrace, and the atmosphere became heated. Yu Nan closed his eyes, savoring the long kiss.

As the kiss deepened, his breathing grew heavier. Just when he felt he could hardly breathe, Bei Yuye pulled away first.

Yu Nan looked at Bei Yuye in confusion, his eyes misty and unable to see clearly. Why did he suddenly pull away?

“Catch your breath, Nan Nan.” he gently patted his back until his breathing calmed down completely, then he lifted him up onto the sink.

Yu Nan instinctively wrapped his legs around Bei Yuye and looked up at him, unabashedly revealing his desire: “I want more.”

Bei Yuye’s large hand cupped Yu Nan’s face as he leaned closer, close enough to see himself reflected in Yu Nan’s eyes. He couldn’t help but stick out his tongue and lick his lips, shocked by his own actions.

His hand slipped under Bei Yuye’s shirt, greedily squeezing his favorite abs. It turned out that one really needed to be in a relationship; otherwise, one wouldn’t realize how lustful they could be.

In Bei Yuye’s eyes, Nan Nan was teasing him with his watery eyes and soft pink lips. He felt his face flush. “No, Nan Nan, this position is a bit embarrassing.”

He looked at the mirror, seeing how Nan Nan wrapped his legs around him and how he was touching him. All of this stimulated his senses.

He made the same mistake he did at the hotel. He looked at Yu Nan with a pitiful expression. Yu Nan jumped off the sink and opened the door, saying, “You can take care of yourself before coming out.”

Outside, they could only share soft kisses, not deep ones, because Bei Yuye was a young adult who could easily get aroused.

“Nan Nan, I think this is my way of showing love for you!”

Bei Yuye’s explanation came from the bathroom, and Yu Nan muttered in response, “I know, I know. Hurry up.”

“Really, Nan Nan, I searched for it. I love you wholeheartedly!”

While changing out of the dress, Yu Nan replied, “Yeah, yeah, I love you too.”

After Bei Yuye came out, he kept asking Yu Nan if he was hungry, claiming he had been watching cooking videos while in the bathroom.

Yu Nan was annoyed by the questions. “I’m hungry, come over and eat!”

Bei Yuye looked momentarily stunned. “Huh?”

“Uh?” Yu Nan was puzzled by Bei Yuye’s dazed expression. Was he watching the wrong kind of videos?

Bei Yuye’s face turned bright red as he realized Yu Nan misunderstood him and awkwardly explained, “Beef and shrimp hot and sour noodles. A friend said it’s delicious, and I wanted to make it for you.”

Yu Nan was so mad he nearly couldn’t catch his breath. Bei Yuye was venting in the bathroom? Was he thinking about hot and sour noodles while doing that?

He placed his hands on Bei Yuye’s shoulders and forced a smile, falsely praising, “As expected of our Bei Bei, always so unique.”

Bei Yuye secretly rejoiced, knowing that looking up the hot and sour noodle tutorial was the right choice. Nan Nan was indeed happy just hearing about the dish; he had firmly grasped his preferences.

“Well, I’m going out to cook for you.” Bei Yuye took a few steps but then turned back. “Maybe you want to watch me cook?”

“Actually, I want you to watch me, but I won’t say it. Oh no, I accidentally revealed my inner thoughts. Bei Bei, you’re so silly.”

Yu Nan ruffled his hair. “I’ll go watch, I’ll go watch, don’t dally.”

“Will you tell your dad and mom that you’re dating Bei Bei?”

Yu Nan just smiled without answering. Bei Yuye pouted and snuggled into his arms. It felt like he had raised a large dog, its furry head and warm body.

“Will you tell your dad and mom?” Bei Yuye asked again.

Yu Nan rubbed Bei Yuye’s face, which felt soft and nice. “Don’t pester me; it’s annoying.”

Tell his parents he’s dating a boy?

That was a bit scary; he couldn’t imagine their expressions. But Bei Yuye looked good, so he should be likable.

Thinking too far ahead, his parents didn’t even know he liked guys. He patted Bei Yuye. “Let’s go watch Bei Bei show off his cooking skills in the kitchen!”

Pei Yunchuan was still sitting in the living room, and Chu Luoyang’s voice was coming from his phone again.

“Catch a bird, catch a bird.”

“Okay, forget that you don’t even know how to use skills.”

“Stay away from me; I have a great inheritance.”

“Oh no, I forgot you can’t even ghost, so you won’t be able to run here.”

Chu Luoyang had given up his initial angry scolding and now spoke in a calm voice, making the most provocative remarks. It seemed to be effective.

Pei Yunchuan’s face contorted with rage as he stabbed at the screen, playing furiously. After getting eliminated again, he quit the game and hung up the call, resigning himself to the realities of life.

“Nan Nan, I’m starting to pour water into the pot now!”

Bei Bei reported every step to him, and Yu Nan pulled over a chair to watch from the kitchen doorway, observing him busy inside.

It was a bit novel, and he casually snapped a photo to send to their small family group chat.

Dad: How did you get this muscular?

Yu Nan remained silent: I lift weights every day.

Dad: You just returned to school; you’re not just drinking that protein powder, are you?

Yu Nan’s face turned black. He didn’t know if his dad was serious or joking.

Dad: Hahaha, just trying to be funny. Is this a laugh?

Yu Nan: I’ve got a boyfriend, but I feel shy about telling you guys.

Dad: Wait a moment, I need to read your message again.

Dad: Wait a bit longer; I need to digest this.

Yu Nan brought his phone closer to Bei Yuye’s mouth: “If I introduce you to my parents, what would be the first thing you say?”

Bei Yuye thought it was a drill, so he raised his voice, pretending to be soft and obedient: “Hello, uncle and aunt, I’m Beibei. I will take good care of Nannan because Beibei is a good man.”

Yu Nan released the voice recording key, and Bei Yuye’s exaggerated voice got sent out. He clicked on the message—“Hello, uncle and aunt, I’m Beibei. I will take good care of Nannan because Beibei is a good man.”

The recording was clear; he just didn’t know what his parents would think. Meanwhile, Bei Yuye was happily cooking.

Dad: Hmm…

Dad: Did he save your life or something?

Yu Nan: Dad, what are you talking about? He’s just an ordinary boy.

Dad: Is he ordinary?

Dad: Is this how young people talk these days?

Dad: I’m going to tell your mom.

Yu Nan felt that there was nothing more he could say, so he just waited for his parents to digest it naturally. 

There had almost never been any conflicts at home; his parents never scolded him for doing something wrong when he was a child. Their approach to life was calm and understated, and he was the same way—able to brush things off lightly. 

Just like now, although he had never openly talked about his sexual orientation, he was able to send this message in the group chat all of a sudden. 

His mom was probably at work and hadn’t seen it yet. Once his dad knew, that was it. He felt a bit bored and ran over to hug Beibei affectionately.

“I’m going to squeeze your butt!” he turned his back to Bei Yuye, his hands confidently covering him.

Bei Yuye playfully complained: “Nannan, you’re so naughty!”

“Where would it feel good?” Yu Nan recalled that in the comics, the submissive character felt things when touched anywhere, while the dominant one only felt it when touched below. 

He fully utilized his comic-reading experience, exploring Beibei’s body haphazardly, until he touched his earlobe: “Comics say touching ears is really stimulating. Are you tough-skinned? You’re not reacting anywhere except your mouth.”

The living room was close to the kitchen, and those two didn’t lower their voices at all; it felt like he was completely overlooked, as if he weren’t even there.

Pei Yunchuan, who had been enduring for a long time, finally couldn’t hold it in: “This isn’t just your world! There’s still me! Please consider my feelings!”

Yu Nan truly forgot about the milk tea. In the end, he still placed both hands on Bei Yuye’s soft chest muscles, pressing against his back, and whispered, “It’s so soft here; I like it. But why don’t you feel anything?”

Various colors exploded in his mind. Historically, kitchens in comics were disaster zones, but unfortunately, they had encountered Bei Yuye and his innocent self. He fantasized heavily about their kitchen a year later.

The more Yu Nan thought about it, the better it got. He couldn’t help but chuckle softly. Bei Yuye asked him what he was laughing about, and he honestly replied: “I’m thinking about future things.”

He bit his neck lightly and asked coyly, “Is it too early to think about that?”

Bei Yuye’s body tensed up visibly, his muscles tightening; Yu Nan could hardly move. His bright eyes gazed straight at Beiyu, asking seductively, “Are you also looking forward to it?”

“Well, I need to check out tutorials in advance,” Bei Yuye replied. He would definitely study hard to give Nannan the best experience.

Yu Nan placed a heavy kiss on his collarbone and then left the kitchen: “I believe in you.”

In te living room, the TV was playing game tutorials, and Pei Yunchuan was watching attentively.

It was good that Pei Yunchuan had such ambition, Yu Nan thought, casting a caring glance his way. His poor gaming skills certainly needed some improvement.

In this 4v1 game, Pei Yunchuan was undoubtedly giving points to the opposing team. The game they mainly played relied on stats to beat dungeons, and he could max out his character’s stats, so his poor skills wouldn’t show as much.

Whenever there was a slightly tricky boss, he would die repeatedly, but since he maxed out his damage, he could still manage to play along.

Pei Yunchuan, who was familiar with them, joked fearlessly, but he couldn’t help but respond to provocations from strangers.

“Bei Yuye is cooking for the first time; you’re in for a treat!” Pei Yunchuan teased.

Yu Nan said, “He learns quickly; I bet it will taste good.”

He fully trusted Bei Yuye’s ability to learn, and when Pei Yunchuan saw Yu Nan’s confident expression, he couldn’t help but sigh that love makes people blind.

As it turned out, Yu Nan guessed right. Bei Yuye’s cooking was indeed great, and Pei Yunchuan ended up asking for more twice.

Yu Nan sent pictures of the noodles to the family group chat.

Yu Nan: He can cook; he’s a good kid.

Dad: What do you mean by good kid? How old is he?

Yu Nan: He’s a year and a half younger than me; he’s an adult.

Dad: Isn’t he just newly an adult?

Yu Nan: Didn’t you tell me before that you want me to find someone younger than me?

Dad: I told you to find someone older than you when you were younger, and when you get older, then find someone younger.

Yu Nan: Nonsensical! I’m eating noodles; I don’t care about you. Hurry up and make supper for Mom when she gets home.

After finishing the noodles, he kept being affectionate with Beiyu. He lay in Bei Yuye’s arms while playing games, and Bei Yuye’s little actions were constant—rubbing him, pinching him—but Yu Nan, focused on the game, didn’t notice these small gestures.

After finishing the game, he felt sleepy. He found a comfortable position, resting his legs on Bei Yuye, and prepared to sleep.

Seeing Yu Nan close his eyes, Bei Yuye couldn’t help but say, “Didn’t you say you can’t sleep in the same room with someone else?”

Yu Nan poked his forehead with his finger; Bei Yuye’s biggest flaw was that he was too straightforward and would ask everything.

The pace was indeed a bit fast, but he really liked the feeling of physical contact with Bei Yuye. Just sleeping in one bed and cuddling wouldn’t be crossing the line, right?

Yu Nan gently guided: “Aren’t we dating now?”

Bei Yuye nodded.

“Once we’re dating, we can sleep together.” Yu Nan felt it was time to liberate his thoughts; at his age, he was just right to try new things.

However, he felt a bit conflicted; he still thought of himself as a child. He jumped off the bed to carefully consider this issue. After thinking it through, he decided to give Bei Yuye the choice.

“Beibei, kiss.”

He tried to pull him in, this time without pushing him away, to see how he would react.
