Chapter 30 - I Chase Myself (11)

Subtitle: Call me hubby if you lose

 

Chu Nan's aura had been evil since birth. As he led Ju Ping and the others over, even if it was just a slow, careless glance, it was still enough to strike terror into the other student’s hearts.

 

But Ruan Yan wasn’t scared. His cold gaze crashed into Chu Nan’s, appearing calm and pure.

 

Chu Nan’s feelings towards him were too complicated and he didn’t want to look at him, “What bet are you guys making?”

 

Everyone fell silent.

 

Everybody believed that although Ruan Yan was a bit distant from them, but he still was refined and had a good temper. If they were to start a riot and bet, Ruan Yan also wouldn’t refuse.

 

But Chu Nan this honourable buddha wouldn’t give face to anyone. If he wanted to reject, then he would reject. Their bet was probably going to go yellow (1).

 

Ruan Yan saw that Chu Nan seemingly wasn’t willing to bet and also didn’t feel pleased in his heart.

 

Chu Nan broke up with him, making him fail the task. Now, he was only left with the single task of acting as the school’s villain and going at loggerheads with Chu Nan.

 

Chu Nan better not dare to spoil it.

 

Ruan Yan suddenly opened his mouth unhurriedly, "Because your ex-girlfriend Ran Yan likes me, a couple of your friends thought that I wasn’t worthy of her. So, we are betting right now… betting that you also can’t beat me in terms of e-sports.”

 

F**k, wasn’t this way too arrogant?!

 

All the people who’d attended the festival from the third year of senior high were here. There were more than a hundred people. Now that Ruan Yan made this statement, it was basically telling everyone that he wanted Chu Nan to be cheated on again (2).

 

The bad-tempered Ju Ping couldn’t hold himself back anymore, “I’ll f**k you…”

 

“Who are you going to f**k?” Chu Nan gave him a side glance.

 

Ju Ping felt aggrieved and quietly complained, “Brother Chu, why does your elbow bend outwards (3)?”

 

“It doesn’t bend outwards. If you say that you’re going to f**k him again, then it’s the same as saying that you’re taking my wife.” Chu Nan’s eyes were gloomy. Ju Ping’s words just then had made his hands itch. If it hadn’t been for the fact that he had a good relationship with Ju Ping, then he would’ve already sent a fist over.

 

Ju Ping carefully reflected on Chu Nan’s words and thought that it made sense.

 

Ruan Yan had kissed Ran Yan before, and Brother Chu had kissed Ran Yan before.

 

Then if he were to say that he was going to f**k Ruan Yan… going down this train of events, it really did seem like doing this was no different from doing that (4) to Chu Nan.

 

Ju Ping was utterly convinced by this logic and exclaimed, “Brother Chu, you’re so conscientious!”

 

Ruan Yan couldn’t hear what they were whispering about, and coldly reminded, “You don’t dare to face me?”

 

Chu Nan stared at him complicatedly, “What’s there to be scared about? But Ruan Yan, you’re really that certain that Yan… Yan likes you?”

 

He carefully examined Ruan Yan’s handsome face. His eyelashes were very long, and apart from being handsome, it wouldn’t be too far-fetched to say that he was even more beautiful than a girl.

 

Ruan Yan confidently replied, “I’m certain. Ran Yan kissed me that day.”

 

Wasn’t it just you kissing yourself there?

 

Chu Nan noticed that as Ruan Yan’s words sounded, the others began to discuss how badly Chu Nan had been cuckolded, and how viciously the study god had acted.

 

Chu Nan’s heart felt stuffy. No man would like wearing a green hat, especially not when this green hat was woven by his “girlfriend” with herself.

 

What exactly was Ruan Yan after?

 

But either way, Chu Nan definitely couldn’t acknowledge this green hat right now. “That was all because you forced her.”

 

His eyes were filled with heavy, dull flames as he stared at Ruan Yan’s neck. “Yan Yan’s smart, pretty and pure, you must have forced her.”

 

Chu Nan deliberately praised Ran Yan exaggeratedly, just to see how Ruan Yan would react.

 

Perhaps Ruan Yan would cover his face out of embarrassment?

 

In the end, Ruan Yan simply accepted everything coldly, “What you said is correct.”

 

Chu Nan: ???

 

Yan Yan, no, Yan Yan (5)… you’re this confident?

 

Then he heard Ruan Yan placidly continuing, “But I’m even more smart and excellent than her, so, her liking me is only natural.” A cold light flashed through his peach blossom eyes, and without a single shred of politeness he said, “At least she has better eyesight now than when she liked you. She won’t regret it.”

 

Chu Nan: …He regrets dressing as a girl and being with me.

 

The audience: …

 

The audience thought that they were all hallucinating. Wasn’t Chu Nan meant to be the school tyrant? Why was Ruan Yan even more arrogant than him?

 

Ju Ping took the lead to curse, “F**k, who are you trying to slander?! How dare you say that Ran Yan’s vision isn’t good because she got together with our Brother Chu? You know s**t about how good Brother Chu is towards Ran Yan!”

 

Chu Nan: ...He actually did know.

 

As expected, Ruan Yan coldly mocked, “Firstly, they’ve already broken up. Secondly, he really wasn’t all that good to Ran Yan. You’re welcome to rebut.”

 

Ju Ping wanted to keep on arguing, but Chu Nan pulled him back.

 

What was there to argue about? Ruan Yan’s attitude was precisely “Ran Yan’s” attitude, if they were to keep on going then wasn’t it just giving him heads for free? (6)

 

Moreover, because of Ruan Yan’s words, Chu Nan couldn’t help but wonder if he really was that bad to Ruan Yan.

 

He let out a long breath, “Let’s bet, what are we competing on?”

 

Because the main theme of this time’s celebratory fest was e-sports, therefore Ruan Yan and Chu Nan’s ‘battle’ this time was also e-sports.

 

A shooting game similar to “eating chicken” (7), but even more flexible.

 

It was a two man ‘battle’ and the game would launch NPC's onto the playing field. Whoever reached 100 kills first would win the game. If no one reached 100, then whoever ate the chicken first would win.

 

Ruan Yan wore his earphones and sat in front of the computer, exercising his wrists.

 

Chu Nan was right beside him. Eyes flashing, he consciously tried to ease their relationship, “You won’t cry if you lose right?”

 

Ju Ping applauded passionately, “Look at the level of our Brother Chu’s provocation! It’s so high ah!”

 

“Right, right, he and Ruan Yan really are well-matched opponents.”

 

Chu Nan: …Can you guys not randomly mess things up?

 

He frowned. His vicious aura turned even more fierce.

 

As expected, Ruan Yan was truly angered and he mocked, “I might cry because of excitement when I beat you.”

 

The competition started.

 

Ruan Yan’s gaming level wasn’t bad, his aim was very precise. But Chu Nan’s skills were even better. Simply speaking, even his familiarity with the map exceeded Ruan Yan’s.

 

The competition was extremely nerve-wracking.

 

All of Ruan Yan’s concentration was put into the competition, and the little African character he was controlling was currently diligently searching for a boat, his back soaked with sweat.

 

It was obviously an effect in the game, but Chu Nan felt uncomfortable in his heart.

 

When did Ruan Yan ever have to work so hard when he was with him?

 

Chu Nan couldn’t force himself to see past this, cough, after all, regardless of whether this was his ex-girlfriend or ex-boyfriend, he was still uncomfortable seeing him be bullied like this.

 

Chu Nan killed an NPC with a single shot and grunted to Ruan Yan, “Come and replenish your pack.”

 

Then he hopped off the car, saying, “Come and get on the car.”

Ju Ping’s sighed with admiration, “Brother Chu’s move is so high-end this time. Magnanimously giving his things to others, showing off his generosity whilst looking down on Ruan Yan’s skills. Smart, so damn smart.”

 

Ruan Yan was expressionless as he threw a hand grenade at Chu Nan.

 

The loot box exploded, and the car was also exploded.

 

Chu Nan drank a large bottle of medicine and barely managed to survive.

 

Ruan Yan’s calm, clear voice was transmitted into everyone’s ears, “Don’t mention a mere car, if you call me daddy, I’ll even give you the boat.”

 

He left Chu Nan with an indifferent view of his back as he jumped on the boat and left.

 

Chu Nan coughed softly, and said with a hint of embarrassment, “What car or boat, don’t talk about these things in public.”

Ju Ping: “Brother Chu’s so awesome ah! Just a single sentence yet he’s managed to reveal Ruan Yan’s true, dirty intentions. Can cars and boats even be considered good things? Brother Chu’s way too OP, his understanding of the world is so deep.”

 

Chu Nan: …Can you get lost?

 

Chu Nan originally wanted to throw the game this time, just playing along with it for the sake of the competition. It would be pointless if he were to really win over his ex-boyfriend.

 

But as it turned out, the audience beneath them began to quietly discuss, “Why does it seem like Chu Nan’s going to lose ah? He’s going to have to shout out “I’m an idiot, I’m an idiot” if he loses, and even post a message on the forum recognising that he’s an idiot ah.”

 

“Wow, who’s idea was this? Does Chu Nan not want his reputation anymore?”

 

“The people in Class 1 said so. Class 9’s people were even more vicious. They said that if Ruan Yan lost, then he would have to call Chu Nan husband. If this were to get out, then he would lose even more face.”

 

Chu Nan froze.

 

He pursed his lips and suddenly began to exert himself. He hit several NPCs in a row and within 3 minutes, Ruan Yan had taken off his earphones.

 

“I’ve lost.” He said.

 

He’d thought that his gaming level wasn’t bad, but he didn’t think that Chu Nan would be at a professional level.

 

Chu Nan was conscientious enough to comfort either his ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend, “It wasn’t your fault.”

 

Ju Ping and the others were already boiling with excitement. They stood up and loudly clapped, “Call husband! Call husband!”

 

Zhang Yang said, “Brother Chu probably wouldn’t reply even if he really were to call him that right? It’s too disgusting.”

 

There were also people who had sharp eyes and nimble fingers. They posted on the school forum: Loving wrongly in troubled times! Love rivals in the past, yet today the wind brings changes to the sky – study god gently calls school tyrant “hubby”, bet one cent that the school tyrant won’t respond?

 

Ruan Yan didn’t want to call Chu Nan. They’d already broken up.

 

Ruan Yan impolitely said, “Chu Nan, you won’t dare to respond even if I call. Everyone’s cowardly here, let’s change the bet.”

 

“Who says I don’t dare to respond?” Chu Nan reined back his vicious aura, “How would you know if you don’t try?”

 

Ruan Yan replied, “You dare to listen to a man call you husband?”

 

What was there to not dare about? I even let a man be my girlfriend ah!

 

Chu Nan thought back to before. No matter how he coaxed, Yan Yan had always refused to call him husband.

 

Now that he thought about it, it must’ve been because he didn’t like him enough.

 

Chu Nan was stuck on that “husband”. He wildly said, “You have to accept your loss if you dare to bet, are you going to say it or not?”

 

“There’s nothing to not dare about.” Ruan Yan was expressionless on the surface, “I’ll say it after I go to the bathroom.”

 

“Going to the bathroom to escape ah! Don’t let him go!” Class 9s people began to exclaim.

 

Chu Nan’s eyes also grew hot, “Can’t you go after you say it?”

 

Ruan Yan thoroughly vexed him, “I’ll say it twice after I come back, alright? So narrow-minded.”

 

Two times…

 

Chu Nan’s gaze turned deep and he told Class 9s people, “Stop talking you lot, Class 1s people are all here so he can’t get away anyways.”

 

Zhang Yang: …

 

Although what he said made a lot of sense, but the difference in reaction after promising to say it twice was too big right?

 

Ruan Yan successfully escaped and walked to the bathroom. He took out Ran Yan’s phone and sent a message: 【Who would’ve thought that after breaking up for not even three days, you’d already have found some other man to call you hubby. Chu Nan, I hate you, ying.】

 

Chu nan’s body shook after he received this message.

 

It would’ve been better if he hadn’t known that Ruan Yan was Ran Yan, but now that he knew…

 

So when Ruan Yan calmly walked out just then, it was actually to secretly act spoilt?!

 

Chu Nan took a deep breath in, treasuring this hard earned opportunity to talk: 【He lost a bet. If I don’t make him say it then Yan Yan, can you call me hubby?】

 

Ruan Yan frowned, Chu Nan was dreaming: 【We’ve already broken up.】

 

Chu Nan’s heart throbbed, but he persevered in saying: 【If you won’t say it, then it’ll be Ruan Yan who says it. There’s so many people, if Ruan Yan were to say it, he would definitely be humiliated.】

 

The phone call came immediately. Chu Nan picked up.

 

Ruan Yan expressionlessly used his milk crisp voice to say, “Hubby~ You’re so mean.”

 

Chu Nan’s heart jumped up and down in his chest.

 

In the next second, Ruan Yan coldly said, “Breakup gift (8), I’ve said it already, goodbye.”

 

Cold x Ruthless.

 

Chu Nan couldn’t help saying, “Can’t we get back together for a bit? Try it out?”

 

He could try to see if he could get hard with Ruan Yan.

 

Ruan Yan said in the phone, “No way, I’m in love with Ruan Yan now. He’s better than you in every aspect, even his… that is bigger than yours.”

 

Chu Nan: …Now that’s a lie.

 

No matter how big yours is, you still can’t use it ah?

 

Chu Nan didn’t have time to rebut before the call was already ended.

 

The room suddenly felt stuffy and he planned to go out, but as soon as he stood up, he found out that his ‘flag’ had already stood up.

 

Chu Nan scolded himself for being worse than a beast. What use was it for him to get hard from listening to Ruan Yan’s voice? He couldn’t possibly cover up Ruan Yan at night and do it just by listening to his voice right?

 

He was quite willing to, but Ruan Yan definitely wouldn’t be willing.

 

On the other side, Ju Ping heard Chen Hui talk and said, “So you actually like Ruan Yan. No problem, I can help you chase him.”

 

“You don’t need to thank me. He wanted to hook up with Brother Chu’s ex-girlfriend… No, the ex-girlfriend he’ll make up with sooner or later. I’m so tired of him, it’ll be good if you can make him bend.”

 

The author has something to say:

Translator’s Notes:

(1) Also appeared in previous TNs… Means that their bet is probably gonna go to waste, won’t pull through, etc.

(2) Uh… tbh, this sentence is a bit weird… (阮晏这个发言, 相当于当事人还想楚南被绿了) I don’t really get it, so if anybody’s got any suggestions (on how to translate it or how to understand it) then please leave a comment :) hehe

(3) Meaning that he’s siding with the other side; helping the enemy or opposing team

(4) “that” as in cuckolding Chu Nan

(5) The first “Yan Yan” is the character Yan (meaning colour) from Ran Yan’s name, and the second “Yan Yan” is the character Yan (meaning late or quiet) from Ruan Yan’s name. They’re pronounced differently, with Yan (Ran Yan) being second intonation (so it kindaaa goes up), and Yan (Ruan Yan) being fourth intonation (kindaaa goes down oof)

(6) Giving heads, sending heads; gaming term (commonly used in glory) for when you go up to an enemy and basically give them kills (heads) for free

(7) A game similar to PUBG, where you win either by surviving the longest or getting the most heads (I’ve only played PUBG once or twice, so not too sure on this lol)

(8) Ok… More like breakup sex, but that doesn’t really fit the context here. Original was 分手火包(分手炮)which is basically just when you have a sex partner(炮友)and then you decide to break up… and have break up sex…. Yeah…. This might need to be censored but uhhhh….
