OVTTGTBE Chapter 18

Previously, when the two of them talked via voice chat, Bai Yao always thought he was using something like a voice changer on his computer, which made his voice sound exactly like the CV Yuan Shuang.
What does he mean by calling him directly on his phone now? Does he not want to hide it anymore?
On one hand, because it’s late at night and everyone is quiet, Bai Yao is a little scared and doesn’t want to tough it out alone.
But on the other hand, now that he knows Honey Peach Milk is Liu Yucheng, he really can’t forgive Liu Yucheng’s behavior that day.
What to do?
Anyway, he has nothing else to do tonight, so why not argue with him?
It’s better to vent all the things that have been piling up in his heart recently than to keep them bottled up. This is what Honey Peach Milk said from the very beginning.
Bai Yao convinced himself in this way and pressed the answer button.
“Hello?”
He could hear the voice of CV Yuan Shuang, but he could also feel Liu Yucheng’s presence. This means that when the two of them were voice chatting before, the voice Bai Yao heard was adjusted; now without the adjustment, the forced voice is a bit obvious.
“I’m sorry.”
“I was in a bad mood some time ago.”
Honey Peach Milk said each word slowly, “I was afraid of affecting you, so I didn’t reply to your messages immediately. Later, as time went on… I didn’t know how to find you anymore.”
After listening to this long explanation and thinking for a moment, Bai Yao said, “Yeah, that’s great, you keep all your worries to yourself, that’s how I broke up with my ex. But I don’t think we’re in that situation, since you don’t do online dating, and neither do I.”
“My worries,” Honey Peach Milk said softly, “even if I told you, they would only bother you.”
“How do you know I can’t help you solve them?”
Bai Yao chuckled and asked, “Guess what happened the night I said I wasn’t in the mood to play games with you?”
Honey Peach Milk swallowed, “What happened?”
“My ex has a younger brother who seems particularly good at leeching.”
Bai Yao said disdainfully, “Do you want to know how he begged me for mercy?”
Honey Peach Milk breathed a sigh of relief.
As expected, it was Bai Yao.
It was the first time in Liu Angran’s life that he had actively returned money. After that day, Liu Yucheng received countless abusive messages, some from Liu Angran, and some even worse, with threatening implications, from Liu Angran’s mother, who is Liu Yucheng’s aunt.
Those people are filthy, and not something a simple young master like Bai Yao can deal with.
Liu Yucheng held his forehead, sitting in his small twenty-square-meter rental apartment, unable to stop sighing.
He thinks they are filthy, but what about himself? Many times, he feels that using the identity of Honey Peach Milk to get close to Bai Yao and deceive Bai Yao is not much better.
“I believe in your ability.”
“I just don’t want you to come into contact with those dirty people and things. Maybe your ex had the same idea as me.”
Honey Peach Milk said, “Just talking to you makes me feel much better. Thank you.”
“Is there anything else?” Bai Yao said quietly, “If not, I’ll hang up.”
“Wait, not yet.”
In order to keep him on the line, Honey Peach Milk quickly said, “My heart suddenly hurts so much, can you diagnose it for me, please?”
This isn’t foreplay or a suggestive voice chat, Bai Yao immediately got goosebumps.
“I have an appointment tomorrow, I need to sleep. Goodbye.”
After saying that, Bai Yao hung up the phone and curled up in his chair to sort out his feelings.
Honey Peach Milk’s friend request popped up again: I’m very scared to sleep alone at night.
Honey Peach Milk: I want to sleep with you on voice chat.
Bai Yao cursed and accepted his friend request.
“Are you home alone too?”
After the voice connection was established, Bai Yao couldn’t help but ask.
“Yeah, I rented a house. I’m not going home for the New Year, I’m spending it in this rental house.”
“I only agreed to voice chat because you said you were scared. I’m a big man, over 1.8 meters tall, I’m not afraid of being alone.”
Bai Yao said stiffly, “But I gave you another chance, you should be grateful.”
“Yeah.” Honey Peach Milk no longer concealed the smile in his tone, “Thank you for being willing to stay with me. I’m very afraid of the dark, it’s too quiet around me, it feels very uncomfortable.”
Bai Yao: “…”
Heh, men. Speaking of which, how did he find out that he was afraid of the dark? As far as Bai Yao remembers, he has never mentioned this to anyone.
It feels strange to sleep while connected on voice chat, but after Bai Yao lay down, he still carefully placed his phone next to his pillow and closed his eyes peacefully.
Let’s get through tonight like this, and figure out how to deal with this relationship tomorrow.
…
He slept quite soundly and didn’t have any nightmares. When Bai Yao opened his eyes again, it was already bright outside, and the electronic clock by the bed showed that it was 10:49 AM.
Bai Yao picked up his phone, and the call was still connected.
Not hearing any sound from Honey Peach Milk’s side, he said softly in his just-woke-up husky voice, “Thank you.”
“Then I’ll hang up?”
There was no response, he was probably still asleep.
Bai Yao hung up the phone and quickly plugged the charger into the phone, which only had 7% battery left. As for Honey Peach Milk’s Wechat, he’ll keep it for now, just in case “Honey Peach Milk is afraid of the dark again” tomorrow night.
After washing up, Bai Yao went downstairs and saw Aunt Yang feeding the expensive fish in the fish tank.
After not seeing her for a long time, Aunt Yang looked particularly energetic. When Bai Yao was in middle school, she was the one who was always in charge of Bai Yao’s meals. Bai Yao greeted her and told her that she only needed to make lunch, just something simple, and didn’t need to make dinner.
He’s meeting up with a friend who just returned to the country tonight and will eat out.
Having nothing to do during the day, he tidied up his wardrobe and took out his guitar, which he hadn’t touched in a long time, and tuned it. He hid in his room, playing and singing, and even recorded a video of himself.
In the evening, Bai Yao rummaged through the drawer for his car keys and drove out the Cayenne parked in the garage.
He got his driver’s license this summer. He was a little nervous when he first started driving, but he gradually got used to it after driving for a while. The friend he’s meeting is named Duan Yunran. This kid just got a girlfriend and was showing off to Bai Yao in Wechat yesterday. Since they were good friends before, Bai Yao told him frankly: I just broke up, I’m feeling depressed.
Duan Yunran said, then let’s hang out tomorrow night? If you have worries, you can tell your brother.
Bai Yao drove his car near a KTV and parked it next to a Bentley with a very familiar license plate number.
Duan Yunran brought his girlfriend with him. There was a case of beer on the table, and Bai Yao ended up drinking some, scaring Duan Yunran half to death. Because he knew that Bai Yao was allergic to alcohol, and his whole body would turn pink after drinking alcohol.
Bai Yao felt a blockage in his heart and only said that drinking a few sips won’t kill him, it’s okay.
He came out to Duan Yunran and his girlfriend, saying that he had fallen in love with a man, but they had broken up due to personality differences.
He also took a picture of the fruit plate and beer on the KTV table and posted it on his Moments without any caption.
At around nine o’clock in the evening, a designated driver drove Bai Yao’s Cayenne and safely took him home.
After Bai Yao posted that photo on his Moments, Honey Peach Milk immediately sent him a message asking, are you drinking outside?
Bai Yao replied: It’s none of your business.
Then, Honey Peach Milk went crazy, calling Bai Yao more than 30 times in a row.
Bai Yao directly put his phone on silent, not answering or looking at it.
After taking a shower, when Bai Yao looked at his phone again, Honey Peach Milk had stopped calling.
Taking advantage of the lingering alcohol, Bai Yao typed and asked him: Why aren’t you calling anymore? Maybe I would have answered in a while.
Honey Peach Milk: If your new boyfriend minds, then you should just delete me.
Honey Peach Milk: I hope those voice calls I made just now didn’t bother you.
Honey Peach Milk: You slept with me on voice chat last night, will he be angry?
Bai Yao stood in front of the mirror, laughing uncontrollably, almost dropping the hair dryer.
Bai Yao: Where did I get a new boyfriend?
Honey Peach Milk: In the picture you posted on your Moments, the knee in the lower left corner is obviously a man’s.
Bai Yao: He’s my middle school classmate.
Honey Peach Milk: Middle school classmate? He’s known you for six years, is his voice as good as mine?
Honey Peach Milk: There’s also a car key on the table, is it a Cayenne? Maybe he wants to use money to seduce you, I know, you definitely won’t fall for that…
Honey Peach Milk: He probably doesn’t listen to you complain about your ex-boyfriend as attentively as I do, right?
Honey Peach Milk: Unlike me, I listen to you scold him every day.
He sent a lot of messages at once, and Bai Yao laughed even harder after reading them.
Posting that photo on his Moments today was the right thing to do, so Liu Yucheng also gets jealous.
The more extreme the reaction of this extremely introverted man in reality is at this time, the faster Bai Yao’s anger dissipates.
Under the influence of alcohol, Bai Yao even had a slightly morbid thought – what would Liu Yucheng’s reaction be if he ran into him at KTV today, seeing himself chatting and laughing with Duan Yunran?
Putting the hair dryer back in its place, Bai Yao picked up his phone and directly sent a voice message: “The car key on the table is mine, my classmate drives a Bentley. He came with his girlfriend today.”
Now that he has gotten the desired feedback, Bai Yao doesn’t plan to let him continue to misunderstand.
If Liu Yucheng behaves well using the Honey Peach Milk persona, based on his ability to say suggestive things in the middle of the night, plus his voice, he might be willing to cooperate with him and have an online relationship with him.
Liu Yucheng’s appearance, Yuan Shuang’s voice… having such an electronic pet, at least he won’t feel lonely when he’s lying in bed alone.
Thinking about it, Bai Yao looked down at his pajama pants.
He threw his phone onto the pillow, arranged the cushions, and moved the tissue box on the bedside table within reach.
It’s been a long time since he relaxed himself.
The alcohol hasn’t worn off yet, and he’s not as scared as he was last night. Closing his eyes, his mind is filled with those familiar and slender hands, and the fine beads of sweat always hanging on his fair collarbone.
Bai Yao still hasn’t forgotten the heat of their bodies touching each other.
Just as Bai Yao was about to reach the point of blissful ecstasy, his phone, which he had casually tossed onto the pillow, suddenly started talking:
“Did you not realize that you just called me via voice call?”
Honey Peach Milk asked him in a low voice, “Why are you panting so heavily? What are you doing?”
