Chapter Fifty-Seven: A Sumr Mont
(Thanks to reader [xupingjj] for becoming the Squad Leader, and for additional updates)
After a while, the two parted their lips. Yurong opened her eyes and looked at Li Yan.
"What’s up with you today?" Li Yan felt a bit embarrassed too, shifting his waist slightly. Fortunately, it wasn’t too obvious. He was just about two feet away from her face and asked softly, "Did sothing sudden happen at the company? Can I help you with anything?"
Yurong shook her head, "It’s nothing... I just heard... heard that kissing can verify a person’s feelings, that everything can be faked, but a kiss is the hardest to fake."
"You want to test if I like you?" Li Yan’s eyes widened a bit, "How do you feel now?"
Oh my god, who told her about this thod of testing? I wasn’t prepared at all, I just thought maybe she’d taken the wrong dication, how could anyone imdiately invest themselves emotionally in such a situation?
Yurong blushed and shook her head. "No."
"Hmm?"
"You’re not... Gay." Yurong finally said.
Li Yan was montarily stunned, then realized she wasn’t speaking Yun Country language but international language, and imdiately understood what she ant. He stepped back a few steps, speaking irritably, "Who said I’m Gay? How do I look like I’m Gay?"
In the past, from Cloud Island, Lan Island films to the current dostic films, there’s an unspoken caricature of gay n. It’s not necessarily ant to be discriminatory or derogatory, but the codic mocking style remains unchanged. This relay across generations has given many people the impression of gay n being the ones who speak with exaggerated hand gestures and effeminate voices.
But actually, this is baseless. In movies that genuinely reflect gay n, whether it’s Wong Jiawai’s "Springti Leaked", Kwan Kam-pang’s "Lan Yu", or Ang Lee’s "Wedding Banquet", "Brokeback Mountain", the male protagonists are very manly and normal. Their emotions are just between them, and no one speaks with exaggerated hand gestures.
So, when Li Yan heard Yurong say he wasn’t Gay, his first reaction was, when did I ever look like I was Gay?
Seeing his reaction, Yurong realized she had spoken out of turn due to the passionate kiss, which left her mind blank. She could feel his passion, his emotions, and didn’t believe he could be Gay, so she said it out instinctively. Now realizing it might upset him, and make him dislike Xueyin too.
Li Yan returned to the chair opposite, watching Yurong without speaking, trying to figure out who taught her this probing tactic today, and why.
Seeing him like this, Yurong took a deep breath to calm herself, then said directly, "It was Xueyin who told , but don’t bla her, she was just worried about you..."
Jiang Xueyin! It must have been her, Li Yan thought, having no good impression of her. But why say she was worried about ?
"She saw Ye Jiahong acting that way towards you this morning, so..."
Yurong briefly recounted to Li Yan what Jiang Xueyin had said.
After listening, Li Yan broke out in a sweat, what a big misunderstanding! Old Ye, in reality, was just temporarily unable due to his injury, but because Jiang Xueyin only heard the latter part, she concluded Old Ye was Gay, and even trying to seduce him!
This seemingly exaggerated gossiper, could you be any more dramatic?
"Don’t bla Xueyin, she really just wants the best for us, I was also... worried about your low inco yet living so extravagantly, afraid it might be improper dealings with Zheng Yixuan and the others... so I thought temporarily to test you."
Improper dealings with Zheng Yixuan and the others!
Li Yan almost spat blood, being misunderstood as a pervert and now adding the label of Gay!
Seeing him remain silent, his expression growing increasingly tragic, Yurong regained her usual composure and said lightly, "Alright! If you want to be angry, bla , it’s my lack of faith in you, but I have no intention of discriminating against you, nor does Xueyin an to offend you, she doesn’t even suspect you’re one, just worries Ye Jiahong might influence and corrupt you. She wanted to show more concern for you... I’m done talking."
...
I’m done talking, do whatever you want!
Seeing her determined expression, Li Yan laughed and shook his head, "It’s okay, don’t think too much, I’m not blaming you, or Xueyin. She doesn’t know our situation, and we haven’t Made Love, so you not being sure if I’m just a well-disguised Gay isn’t a big deal."
"You’re not mad?" Yurong was a bit surprised, guessing he wasn’t really angry, just didn’t want to be angry at her.
"Actually, what I wanted to tell you was..."
"What?"
Li Yan leaned over the table, moving closer, and whispered, "Just a kiss isn’t enough to test, it only shows that I like you. Gay n can also like female friends, if you want to fully test, it’s best to... have Lovemaking once!"
"Get out of here!" Yurong was listening seriously, not expecting to be teased like that.
"Hmm, that might be a bit difficult for you. How about this!" Li Yan continued to suggest seriously, "Let touch you, if I react, then naturally I’m not, if there’s no reaction, maybe then I am..."
Yurong furrowed her eyebrows, this guy was getting more and more inappropriate. But what else could she do? Given their relationship, even if he did that, it would be reasonable, let alone just talking about it.
