Traveling through Thailand

Chapter 25: The Scandal

Today was a day off. As usual, I should have gotten some quality sleep, then read the novels I brought from China, spending this week's rest day leisurely. However, because I'd promised Rain a feast, I had to get up early and start preparing lunch. After Sky laid out all the necessary seasonings and sorted the onions, ginger, and garlic onto a plate, he called out to Xiao Yi, who was sitting in the hanging basket, "Everything is ready. Check to see if there's anything missing."

Putting down the book, he walked into the kitchen: "Yeah, almost there." He looked at the time again: "It's almost time, you go and cook the rice, I'll do the cooking."

"Ok."

All the food was neatly cooked, stewed, and stir-fried. Time ticked by, and as he covered the pot and began to simmer the braised fish, the doorbell rang. Sky was sitting in the living room, reading a newly translated novel. When he heard the doorbell, he knew who was coming. He put down the bound pages of the novel and stood up. He opened the door to see Rain and his boyfriend.

"You guys came a little early, and there's still one dish that's not cooked yet."

"It's okay, good food is never too late."

After getting them disposable slippers, he led them in. Sky shouted as he passed the kitchen, "How long will the fish take? Rain and the others are here."

Xiao Yi glanced at the pot through the glass lid and said, "Wait another ten minutes, and it will be almost ready. You can move the cooked dishes out first."

"it is good."

The tacit understanding between the two made Rain think that they had not been telling the truth in their last conversation. Later, under Phayu's speculation, he felt sympathy for their relationship. That day, Rain went back and told Phayu what Sky and the others had said. His answer surprised Rain:

"P'phayu, are you telling the truth? Is this really the reason??"

"Otherwise, there's no reason. And you also described the scenes when they were together. If you assume Xiao Yi is from Dragon Country, it's easy to understand."

Rain, persuaded, was deeply concerned about his friend's relationship and believed Phayu's speculation. "What about Sky? Will their relationship have to remain secret? Oh, if only Yi wasn't from Dragon Country, then things would be smoother between him and Sky." Then, thinking of the former pursuers and couple fans at school, his face darkened. "But the school website has been blown up. Their relationship will definitely be exposed."

"Okay, relax. Your friend is not as simple as he seems. He is not just a pretty face without brains. If this matter really gets to his parents, he and Sky will definitely not still live together."

"What you said seems to make sense. What about your friend?"

"I'll make it clear to him."

After hearing his friend's explanation, Phraphai went back and checked Xiao Yi's background. The information he found surprised him. He had never expected that Xiao Yi had contact with Parkin. With all the information on his desk, he made a decision. The person who had made his heart flutter was already taken. Unless their relationship broke down, he would have no chance. What upset him the most was that the boy he met at the airport a few years ago turned out to be the current boyfriend of the person who had made his heart flutter. He even wondered if such a coincidence was due to his excessive playfulness. Otherwise, how could those two people who made such a deep impression on him become a couple?

Rain's boyfriend looked at the tacit cooperation scene in the kitchen, and silently lit a stick of incense for his friend in his heart. One was the person he wanted to find a few years ago, and the other was the person he wanted to pursue now. But these two people became a couple. He even suspected that his friend had too many bedfellows, so he let these two get together to avoid being harmed? The more he thought about it, the more possible it seemed, and Phayu nodded secretly. He decided to go back and tell his friend to give up completely, be his Poseidon peacefully, and not to bother these two people. More importantly, Xiao Yi's identity. Someone who can have close contact with Parkin must not be what he sees on the surface.

I have to say that we are good friends for several years and we think the same thing at this moment.

Rain was very satisfied with the meal. Holding his round belly, he said with satisfaction, "Yi, are you really not planning to open a Chinese restaurant? If you do, I'll come here every day."

"Come here every day? You won't get tired of the food."

"No worries. I heard Dragon Country has a lot of delicious food. I saw a news report somewhere about a foreigner who said he wanted to eat all over Dragon Country in a year or several years, and he hasn't left the province in the last three years."

He had also searched for this information on the Internet, and as an orthodox Dragon Chinese, there were many delicacies that he had not even tasted.

"That requires me to be able to cook so many flavors. What I know are just home-cooked dishes, which are far from being good enough for a restaurant. If you like Dragon Country cuisine so much, you can take your boyfriend to travel to China this summer."

"Travel? Yeah, that's a good idea. P'phayu, let's go to Dragon Country together this summer vacation."

"it is good."

Xiao Yi and Sky sat side by side and looked at the two people showing off their love opposite them. Xiao Yi couldn't stand it anymore and knocked on the table: "The meal is over. If you want to be affectionate, please be mindful of the occasion." What he meant was: you can go away now.

Rain foolishly hugged his partner's arm and laughed: "Hey, I have a small request."

"Speak." Seeing his worthless smile, Xiao Yi felt even more disgusted. He was also more impressed that someone actually liked this style. However, seeing his good looks, he understood why he was being targeted.

"I want to raise Doubao for a few days."

"Oh, eating and taking at the same time?"

"Hey, you promised me last time."

"Okay, go catch it yourself. Once you catch it, get out of here quickly. You're seriously disturbing Sky and me." Thinking about having to clean the cat litter box every day during this period, she didn't object to Doubao's suggestion of letting someone else keep him for a few days.

Rain ignored Xiao Yi's disgusted face, let go of his arms, and came close to Xiao Yi and flattered him, "Let me see those translated manuscripts."

Xiao Yi raised an eyebrow: "Isn't there a T version? Can't you just search it online?"

Rain shook Xiao Yi's arm: "Some of them can't be found. Just show me the ones that Sky has finished reading. I promise I won't damage or dirty them."

Xiao Yi raised an eyebrow and looked at Phayu who was sitting opposite him, looking very pleased with himself. "He's acting like a spoiled child and you don't care?"

P'phayu looked at Rain lovingly: "Because not only he wants to read it, I want to read it too. I remember there is a book called Sheng Shi, and Rain said that your translation is better than the one on the Internet, so I also want to see how attractive your translated version is." And by the way, see how they play with the flowers.

Hearing him talk about Sheng Shi, Xiao Yi immediately thought back to the time he'd been translating this novel. He hadn't expected the content to be so explosive. Initially, he'd thought it was a story about a brother helping his sister get a boyfriend, but who knew... who knew later on that it was actually for him, and the content... the saddest part was that Sky had already read a few chapters, so he ultimately had to force himself to finish the translation. He'd considered omitting the sexually suggestive scenes, but then he found a translation of the novel somewhere and, through the countless online comments, realized just how explosive the content was. In the end, determined not to read the abridged version, he swallowed his pride and embarrassment and translated those parts.
