On the rewards for successfully defeating a boss

Early in the morning, Chen Qian packed his bag and prepared to go to class after having breakfast.

When I came to the living room, I found Sun Cheng already dressed neatly and sitting at the dining table, eating noodles.

He always gets up very early, I wonder if it has something to do with jet lag.

"There's still noodles in the pot. Eat them before going to class." Sun Cheng said.

It was a rare opportunity for Chen Qian to eat at home in the morning, so he agreed without hesitation.

Yu Wangxi was carried back last night. He only remained awake enough to allow Sun Cheng to help him take a shower. Then he became completely unconscious and fell into a deep sleep.

"Why don't you give the squad leader a direct answer instead of just watching him linger in the middle of nowhere?" Chen Qian picked at the tomato and egg noodles in his bowl and spoke calmly, "Leaving him hanging?"

"How is that possible?" Sun Cheng was startled when he heard the last word of Chen Qian's words. He raised his voice, then revealed a guilty expression. After a moment's hesitation, he continued in an embarrassed tone, "The main reason is... it's not the right time yet."

"When? When Yu Wangxi falls in love with someone else?"

"No, back when we were in school, if you said you liked me, we could just be together. It was straightforward and straightforward. But now it's different, isn't it? We've all entered society." Sun Cheng's voice grew heavier and heavier as he spoke, his words becoming softer and softer, with a hint of ambiguity in his words: "My family conditions aren't great, and I've only just started working. He's well-off, and he's truly destined to be your young master. There's no reason for me to ask your young master to condescend to be with me."

"He doesn't care about these." Chen Qian frowned. He sat down and didn't eat many bites. The noodles soaked in the soup and swelled up.

Sun Cheng stared at him across from him without saying a word.

The quietness spread in the air.

"I care. He'll find ways to accommodate me, help me, and support me. Can I guarantee that I won't forget my roots?" Sun Cheng suddenly said, "Besides, my family probably won't accept me like this, and it'll take time for me to convince them."

Chen Qian lowered his eyes and listened to his long speech, which was all about the future.

"The present is what's most important. The future is for your future self to consider. What's the point of worrying about what's to come instead of just starting over?" Chen Qian retorted disapprovingly, "Does he like you for your heroism?"

Probably so.

For that, he created a heroic image for himself, standing in the most crowded place in the boys' dormitory, cursing at his roommates who discriminated against and bullied him.

Chen Qian had heard Chen Tian talk about Yu Wangxi and how he came out in high school.

The short boy, who originally had a delicate appearance, suffered some things that he should not have suffered after accidentally exposing his sexual orientation. Even if the Yu family settled the matter forcefully, the shadow would remain in the boy's heart.

Chen Qian did not understand his timidity and concession at first, but later found out that this behavior that was not part of his family environment was actually a stereotype of inferiority.

The joke I made a while ago was actually true.

Yu Wangxi is the princess waiting for the knight in the dragon's lair, but the knight Sun Cheng always kneels behind the non-existent prince.

You know what, these two really go well together.

Chen Qian looked at the half portion of noodles that was almost solidified at the bottom of the bowl and still lost his appetite. He picked up his backpack and stood up.

"Besides, you've already gotten to know Yu Wangze because of him. So, stop using those high-sounding words and focus more on what he wants."

Sun Cheng didn't say anything else, just sat there in a daze.

Chen Qian came to the door and finally checked the things he was going to bring to class. He turned around and looked at the photo frame next to the sofa. At the edge of the photo frame was a bedroom door that was slightly open. There seemed to be a figure flashing in the crack.

Without hesitation, he walked out the door and closed it behind him.

As the saying goes, everyone has their own destiny.

For some people, their fate is determined by heaven.

As for Yu Wangxi, Yu Wangze would probably make sure that no matter what, he would have a smooth and prosperous life.

Others have no right to worry too much about him.
