Mr. Rong's Lovelorn Diary

Chapter 19: What is wrong with your taste?

Translator: DragonRider

Rong Yi, head spinning and feet floating, looked at him from behind for a moment, then went forward and squatted down beside him.

He patted Chen Keyao on the back, “Are you drunk?”

Chen Keyao finally stopped vomiting. He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and looked up at Rong Yi. His expression was very complicated, but he said nothing.

Rong Yi squinted at him. “Hey, you want me to help you up?”

He did not wait for an answer, then suddenly stood up. But just as he reached out his hand, his whole world was spinning.

Rong Yi stumbled, barely able to keep his balance. The moment he was about to sat down on the ground, someone grabbed him.

“I thought you were going to help me up,” Chen Keyao said, looking at him in disbelief. “Where are you going?”

.

It was nearly afternoon when Rong Yi woke up the next day.

He was suffering a nasty hangover. His head was heavy, dizzy and aching.

He opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling for quite a while before he finally remembered that he had brought someone back yesterday. But now he looked around the room, and there was nobody else.

As he was lost in confusion, the handle of the door was carefully unscrewed. Someone crept in and took a half step with great caution, then relaxed his movements after making eye contact with him.

It was Zhou Li. He smiled at Rong Yi, then turned his head to the door and shouted: “He woke up!”

“......Who are you talking to?”Rong Yi asked.

“Your roommate,” answered Zhou as he sat on the chair beside the bed.

.

There were two bathrooms in the house. One in Chen Keyao’s room, while the public one was connected to the corridor in living room. There was no separate one in Rong Yi’s room.

Zhou Li said that he woke up at noon and wanted to use the toilet badly. He waited for a long time but Rong Yi was still sleeping. So he crept out of the room to find it himself.

The public bathroom was not difficult to find, but he had no toiletries. He could only cup his hands to hold some water to rinse his mouth, then dried his face with tissue.

“When I opened the door, I saw a man in the living room, and he scard me!” Zhou Li gesticulated toward his face. “He is so tall with so fierce a look! He even has a long scar on his face!”

Rong Yi choked with laughter, and then burst out laughing.

When Chen Keyao was silent and frowning slightly, he did look a little sharp. But not so long ago he had nothing to do with ferocity.

Chen Keyao got a fresh cut on his face, which left a newly formed scab. Since the gauze was removed, a dark red scar spread across half of his face. With such appearance and physique, the only distance between him and a gangdom member was a gold necklace.

This was a terrible thing for Zhou Li, who was already biased against Alpha.

Rong Yi stopped laughing and wanted to put in a good word for Chen Keyao, but Zhou Li continued, “However, your roommate is a really nice guy!”

After they looked at each other in silence for a while, the man with a scar asked if he needed a toothbrush.

Then Chen gave him a disposable toothbrush and face towel, as well as a takeaway breakfast.

“We ate and chatted for a while,” Zhou Li said. “He is a quiet interesting guy. Never judge by appearances. Old saying has its reason.”

Rong Yi asked with worry, “You don’t take a fancy to him, do you?”

“What?” Zhou was stunned, shaking his head fiercely. “That’s nonsense!”

“......It’s so rare to hear you praise an Alpha like this.” Rong Yi looked at him suspiciously. “You’ve been courted by so many Alphas, and they were all gallant to you I guess.”

“It’s different. He’s not a bit interested in me,” Zhou said. “So it’s very comfortable for me to get along with him. Some people treat you with kindness in a deliberate way. That’s too obvious. So awkward.”

Rong Yi hesitated for a moment before saying, “I would like to remind you, just in case, don’t grow fond of him...”

“Hah,” Zhou smiled, “I know. He said he is only interested in Alpha, not Omega.”

Rong Yi could tell that they really hit it off.

Zhou Li was a little strange. He may simply hate the feeling of being pursued. Rong Yi now began to doubt that it was because he had rejected Zhou Li so thoroughly in that chat-up that had led to the latter’s obsession to himself.

If the guy he accosted was willing and initiative for a relationship, he would definitely cast the poor guy aside.

Rong Yi began to worry about Zhou Li, though he himself had great difficulty to get a boyfriend. If it went on like this, Zhou Li may never find himself an Alpha.

Just when Rong Yi was immersed in sadness, Zhou Li lowered his voice and asked in a wicked tone: “I wanna ask you a question, promise me that you will answer it honestly.”

“Go ahead,” said Rong Yi warily.

“Did you have any special feeling to your roommate?” asked Zhou.

These words almost induced Rong Yi’s stress response. When he opened his mouth again, his voice was much louder than before: “No way!”

This startled Zhou Li, “Then why you are so excited?”

Rong Yi looked away, “I won’t like him unless all the Alphas are dead.”

Zhou Li stared at him without saying a word.

“What? Why staring at me like that……”

“This can’t be true”, said Zhou. “Are you out of your mind? You even have feeling to that fatso! How can you feel nothing to your Alpha roommate? What is wrong with your taste?”

‘What the hell is going on?’ Rong Yi thought. He only had a few extra hours of sleep. ‘What makes Zhou Li change his mind?’

“I didn’t mean it any other way, I just thought that you are worried about finding the one. And he likes Alpha. You just look like one, don’t you?”

Rong Yi was embarrassed.

“It’s just my opinion. You won’t take Omega into your consideration anyway. Dating an Alpha like your roommate is much better than that fatso. I do think you two are well-matched. But if you are not interested, then just forget it.”

It was not about him liking the guy or not. The stupid thing happened between him and Chen Keyao was so hard to explain, so Rong Yi decided to kept silent.

“And ......” Zhou Li licked his lips, “I’m sorry, I was a meddler. Just now he asked me about our relationship. I want to see his attitude, so I lied. I told him you are my boyfriend.”

Rong Yi hesitated for a moment, tried to hold his tongue but failed: “What’s his reaction?”

“He told me you are a good person and put in quite a good word for you. He hopes we could get on well,” Zhou Li laughed. “If you don’t want to be misunderstood, we will explain it later.”

.

Zhou Li didn’t realize that his proposal embarrassed Rong Yi.

Although he and Chen Keyao seemed to get on well now, the past was still a thorn in his heart. He didn’t want anyone to think he still liked Chen Keyao, even if it was a bluff.

Of course, he wouldn’t explain it.

Telling Chen Keyao that there was nothing between him and Zhou Li? That would be strange!

Just as he was concentrating on his struggle, someone knocked the door.

“Are you hungry?” Chen Keyao put half of his head through the door. “I have an extra omelette. If you are hungry, I can heat it up.”

.

But Rong Yi didn’t want to have such greasy thing.

He had no appetite after a bad hangover, and began to feel depressed. After he finished washing, he stepped into the kitchen. Then his stomach turned at the smell.

Chen Keyao had already heated up the omelette in microwave oven. He passed it to Rong Yi with evident complacency ” Come on, eat it now.”

Rong Yi took it over and put it away. He opened the refrigerator to see if there was something else.

“You don’t want the omelette?” said Chen Keyao with regret.

“I can’t find my yogurt, the one I bought the day before yesterday, remember?” Rong Yi looked at him. “I put it on the fridge door, but now it’s gone. Did you drink it?”

Chen Keyao paused. “...Ah.”

Rong Yi frowned, “My stomach is a little upset. I can’t eat this omelette.”

Yoghurt thief –Chen Keyao was ashamed: “I’ll buy you a new one now.”

He said while walking to the door. Before Rong Yi stopped him, the cell phone in his pockect suddenly rang.

“Now? Hmm...Sure. How soon will you get here? OK. Ah, wait. Could you stop by the convenience store and pick up a can of yogurt? Well, yes...just a minute...” Chen Keyao turned back to look at Rong Yi. “Do you want anything else ?”

Rong Yi mouthed, “Your friend?”

“Liu Yuan,” said Chen Keyao, “So don’t be so polite. Just just tell me what you want.”

.

Liu Yuan came here to do some errands. One of Chen Keyao’s university roommate took back lots of specialty from his hometown, so he gave Chen Keyao’s part to Liu Yuan. And that was why he came here.

After listening to this, somehow Rong Yi felt awkward.

He heard that there were four people in Chen Keyao’s dormitory, and he had pursued two of them. It was weird that they could still maintain close relationship with each other up to now. Maybe all the obtuse Alphas in his school happened to be in the same dormitory.

.

Zhou Li planned to leave when he heard the mutal friend of Chen Keyao and Rong Yi was on his way.

Rong Yi wanted him to stay for dinner, but Zhou rejected. Though they were both Omega, Rong Yi’s clothes were too big for him. So he didn’t have a shower last night. And now all he wanted was to go home and change clothes.

Rong Yi walked him to the elevator. Chen Keyao wasn’t here. While they were waiting, Zhou Li whispered: “What on earth do two Alpha get together? Doesn’t it hurt when they making out?”

It was common sense that Alpha instinctively resisted same-sex pheromones. So in theory, if two Alphas were going to stay together, it was only platonic.

Rong Yi didn’t know much about it. “How could I know...”

“So an Omega like you is perfect for him.” Zhou Li said.

“Why did you suddenly say so...”

“No, I am just saying,” said Zhou. “I think he’s nice. Instead of messing around, why don’t you......”

As they spoke, the elevator door opened.

There was a man standing there.

“Are you picking me up, Rong Yi?” Liu Yuan grinned. He came out of the elevator with two plastic bags. When he turned his eyes to the other waiting at the door, he was suddenly dazed.

“See you later.” Zhou Li waved Rong Yi goodbye and walked into the elevator.

Just as he reached out to press the ground floor button, Liu Yuan jumped back into the elevator at once.

“Which floor are you going? The ground floor? Let me do it for you!
