Chapter 38: Break up with His Lover (2/2)
He was in a trance. Was it a success? It became true that the thing he once imagined countless times as a joke-- he threw dishes at the man and drove him out of the house ferociously.
Zhishu He chuckled, stood up, and had to clean up the mess by himself.
In fact, the debris in the room was almost like himself. The bluff was only the crisp sound when the porcelain fell on the ground. Then it did not make any sense. Clean it up and there would be a new vase in the same place on the table tomorrow.
Zhishu He picked up the pieces with his hands, careless of the gashes. In fact, when people were numb, nothing could hurt him. He fell into a trance again and wondered, depending on Wenxu Jiang’s temperament, how long he would stay away from home this time. It was possible for Jiang to leave Zhishu He alone and let him run his own course.
Wenxu Jiang was so aggressive that if one of his lovers dared do what Zhishu He did to him, he would think of some nasty ways to punish that one. But it was Zhishu He, Jiang really had to think over it. In fact, in earlier time, it was easy to deal with-- just cajoled him onto the bed to have a punitive sex, and then coaxed that he just had to join in the fun on occasion with people outside, and he would spend more time with Zhishu He, the most lovely one in his own heart. But this time Wenxu Jiang was really ashamed to do that.
Or maybe these days Jiang was really scared by Zhishu He.
Zhishu He was at home alone tonight. He found that it was actually better and more convenient to stay alone.
Wenxu Jiang, however, was not so comfortable as He. He got himself drunk in the bar. The barman had not known him for long, so unexpectedly, he called Zui Shen.
So early in the morning, when Wenxu Jiang woke up from the headache and dizziness for being drunk, he found Zui Shen lying prone naked in his arms. It seemed that it was reasonable to Zui Shen.
Wenxu Jiang pushed away the one in his arms in boredom. He had never slept with anyone else for a whole night except Zhishu He. Almost instantly, Zui Shen woke up.
Wenxu Jiang was efficiency-oriented, so he broke up with Zui Shen by the way.
“It’s better for you to go to the branch office to be a manager. Don’t be around me. Take the house and the car. Go to Assistant Song to write a check when you’re free. He knows it well and you won’t suffer losses.” The tone was so calm as if nothing important had happened, without any needless emotion.
Zui Shen raised himself up on one elbow, the red marks on his body after one night’s passion seemed to be the proof of last night’s tenderness and love. He was almost on the verge of tears, “What's wrong with me? Tell me and I can change for you!”
Wenxu Jiang got dressed with a cold face. He slept with his lover just after he got kicked out of his house, so he was agitated, even with a subtle self-loathing sense.
“Tell me! What did I do dissatisfies you? Wasn't I obedient enough? I never complain even though I haven’t seen you for ten days or half a month. You don’t like animals, so I abandoned the dog that I had raised for ten years. I am not for money to be together with you. I...”
“Enough,” Wenxu Jiang frowned, and he had no patience with his lover, “I will leave if there’s nothing else.”
“There should be a reason that you don’t want me anymore, right?” Zui Shen gritted his teeth, with his face pale.
Wenxu Jiang buckled his watch, ready to go, and stopped when he heard Zui Shen’s words, sneering, “A reason for breaking up with a lover? Do you really think we're in love?”
The pretty boy in the bed suddenly burst into tears, and shouted in a choked voice, “You deceive me! There must be a reason! You held me in your arms last night and called Zhishu He all night!”
