Chapter 408: Chapter 411 Unparalleled Shyness_1
Hangcheng Detention Center, a certain cell.
Little Qi had been fuming for exactly ten straight hours.
And how could he not be? Little Qi had always been known for his pristine morality and indifference to women. His interest in that mixed-race woman was merely to spare her from Yang Gang’s advances, because she reminded him of Gu Xiaorou.
But what do you know! Those two jerks decide to play strip poker in his room with the lady, and then he was caught and charged for ’organizing a sex party’.
Just the thought of Gu Xiaorou misunderstanding him gave Little Qi an urge to strangle both of them.
Yang Gang and Chen Wenhao had the sense to avoid eye contact with Little Qi as they stared at the ceiling and hummed a tune.
At 3pm the next day, a guard arrived at the cell.
Following the guard was a visibly furious Chen Dongnuan.
"Chen Wenhao, someone’s here to get you out," announced the guard.
"Oh, Dongnuan, you’re here." Chen Wenhao shot Yang Gang a smug look as if to say, "See? My little sister is more reliable."
Yang Gang didn’t know what to say in response.
After Chen Wenhao exited the cell, Chen Dongnuan shot Yang Gang another glare before leaving.
For crying out loud, Chen Dongnuan doesn’t think I’m the one who led her brother astray, does she?
That’s just a wrong accusation!
With Chen Wenhao gone, only Yang Gang and Little Qi remained in the cell.
Little Qi had a scowl on his face, not saying a word.
Yang Gang felt awkward, too embarrassed to speak up.
By six in the evening, as darkness began to settle, still no one showed up to bail out Little Qi and Yang Gang.
Footsteps were heard approaching, before long, the guard was at the door of the cell again.
"Little Qi, someone’s here to bail you out."
What?
Little Qi and Yang Gang both twisted their heads in surprise, their expressions very much different.
The person who came to bail out Little Qi was none other than Gu Xiaorou.
Upon seeing Gu Xiaorou, the scowl on Little Qi’s face finally relaxed into a faint smile.
"Hey Xiaorou, what about me?"
"Hmph!" Gu Xiaorou glared at Yang Gang, "Keep dreaming! You’ll spend the rest of your life in jail!"
Having said this, she stormed off in a huff.
Little Qi followed closely behind Gu Xiaorou and left the cell.
Yang Gang’s spirits were crushed.
"Women are truly unreliable. No wonder there are so many gay men." Yang Gang slouched against the wall, stretching his legs out: "No one’s here to pick me up, am I destined to spend the rest of my life in jail?"
When it hit nine that night, still no one came.
By then, Yang Gang had lost all hope.
Just then, the guard returned again.
"Yang Gang, someone’s here to get you out."
Yang Gang perked up. Who could it be?
He reached the cell door and took a peek, then froze.
"Shen Jing?"
Shen Jing returned a light smile, "Well? Disappointed?"
The guard had already unlocked the cell, and Yang Gang walked out, standing beside Shen Jing. He forced a smile: "Quite the contrary, I’m touched. I thought I had been abandoned by everyone."
Shen Jing chuckled, "Who could abandon you? It’s just that everyone was angry and didn’t want to lose face by bailing you out."
Yang Gang smiled faintly. After a silent pause, he turned to Shen Jing and said, "Shen Jing, thank you."
Shen Jing’s cheeks turned a faint shade of red, "I merely did what a confidante is supposed to do. Moreover, compared to the help you gave me, this favor is nothing. Besides, it’s my failure that it took this long to get you out."
Yang Gang didn’t say anything.
He was being bailed out. Normally, a huge bail amount would be needed. Shen Jing obviously couldn’t afford this. The reason it took so long for her to get him out was probably because she spent so much time pleading with the police.
As a person, Yang Gang usually didn’t like owing women favors, unless they were a few specific women.
The first exception was Gu Xiaorou.
There was no way around it, Gu Xiaorou had always been Yang Gang’s emotional cornerstone. Throughout the years, whether he was happy or sad, Gu Xiaorou was always by his side. Yang Gang was acutely aware that he could never repay the favors he owed her in his lifetime.
Besides Gu Xiaorou, Yang Gang didn’t want to owe anything to the women around him, including Su Xiaoxi and Zhang Miao.
Then the other exception was Yang Fei.
In Yang Gang’s subconscious, everything he did for Yang Fei was entirely justifiable, and so was everything Yang Fei did for him.
And, Shen Jing became the third woman Yang Gang was willing to owe favors to.
A female confidante is always a special existence in a man’s life.
Yang Gang and Shen Jing walked out of the temporary detention center. The sky was completely dark with scattered stars sparkling above.
Yang Gang glanced at the night sky and smiled faintly, "I have nowhere to go tonight."
Shen Jing’s expression changed subtly and finally said softly, "Why don’t you come over to my place for the night?"
"Um, are you sure it’s convenient?" Yang Gang asked.
Shen Jing laughed lightly, "It’s convenient."
Yang Gang didn’t hesitate, and nodded his agreement.
Shen Jing’s rented house was in an urban village. When they entered the village, the local residents who were out enjoying the cool evening air were taken aback by Shen Jing bringing home a handsome man late at night.
"Jing Jing, is this your boyfriend?" A middle-aged woman asked with a smile.
Shen Jing blushed and hastily shook her head. "No, he’s my college classmate."
The middle-aged woman laughingly teased, "Jing Jing has become shy. This young lady is so coy, refusing to admit she has a boyfriend."
The others also chuckled teasingly.
These people didn’t mean any harm. Yang Gang just smiled and didn’t say a word. He neither confirmed nor denied the assumption.
Shen Jing was quite flustered. She quickly grabbed Yang Gang’s hand and ran off.
When they arrived at an old courtyard house, Shen Jing finally stopped, catching her breath.
When she caught her breath and looked down, Shen Jing realized that she was still holding Yang Gang’s hand. She quickly let go, embarrassed.
"Let’s go inside." Shen Jing opened the door.
Yang Gang nodded.
Upon entering the house, Yang Gang looked around and asked, "Where is your mother?"
"Oh, she went back to the countryside." Shen Jing replied.
"So, it’s just the two of us here tonight?" Yang Gang asked casually.
Shen Jing’s cheeks turned crimson instantly, "I, I’ll make some tea."
Only then did Yang Gang realize that his words might have been inappropriate.
"Shen Jing, that’s not what I meant. Don’t worry, I won’t..."
"Mmm, I know." Shen Jing cut him off.
"Um..." Yang Gang opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.
Shen Jing made a cup of tea for Yang Gang, then started cooking dinner.
Shen Jing’s culinary skills were not extraordinary, but the dishes she cooked were savory and comforting. They felt like a home-cooked meal.
"Is it good?" Shen Jing looked at Yang Gang nervously.
Yang Gang smiled, "It’s quite good. With cooking like this, you can definitely capture your future husband’s heart through his stomach."
"Um.." Shen Jing laughed softly, but didn’t say anything.
After dinner, Yang Gang felt sleepy. Even though he was a genetically modified individual with exceptional energy, he had used up a lot of his spiritual power resisting Yue Jiayi’s Psychic Illusion Art the previous night. After staying awake until now, he was thoroughly exhausted.
Yang Gang slept on Shen Jing’s bed, while Shen Jing slept on her mother’s bed.
Not long after Yang Gang lay down on the bed, his breathing became steady. He had fallen asleep.
Shen Jing quietly came into the room, stood by the bed, and looked at Yang Gang who was sleeping soundly on his back. Her gaze finally rested on his lips.
Her expression changed, her face blushing a deep red, she looked incredibly coy and shy.
After hesitating for more than ten minutes, Shen Jing took a deep breath. Determination in her eyes, she quietly leaned over, gently kissed Yang Gang’s lips, then immediately ran away, her face turning red.
Sometime after Shen Jing ’fled’, Yang Gang, who had been asleep with his eyes closed, opened his eyes.
