Chapter 68.2
Editor: Casey
If the group of gossipers knew what was running through Qin Yunsheng’s mind, they would’ve taken his shoulders and shaken him wildly to wake him up.
Shi Qing’s attitude towards Qin Yunsheng worsened because he held a grudge against Qin Yunsheng for once joking around with Shi Yiyi.
The reason why he didn’t order others around was because they were all here to work and are not assigned to protect Shi Qing.
How did the truth become so twisted when it reached Qin Yunsheng’s head?
Despite not knowing what was going on in Qin Yunsheng’s head right now, they still looked at him incredulously.
What do you mean that Shi Qing’s always liked you???
This officer must be blind, right??
How can you call what Professor Shi did to you affectionate??
Qin Yunsheng, however, was simply relieved that he had figured it out.
In fact, last night, he hadn’t slept at all because he was busy thinking about his relationship with Shi Qing.
Though he didn’t want to admit it, his heart wavered for a second when Shi Qing pretended to be weak.
The little Marquis might’ve returned to his usual self quickly, but the flushed face and thumping heart his performance left Qin Yunsheng with were still fresh in the officer’s mind.
He was more than okay with having a little boyfriend, but he was still afraid that Shi Qing was just playing around.
The two of them, whether it was personality, hobbies, or profession, were just too different.
The probability of Shi Qing really liking him was way too low.
And now, after a few reminders from these, he finally realized that maybe, just maybe, Shi Qing was interested in him from the beginning.
The corners of the officer’s lips curled up slightly, revealing a smile of relief.
He said to the group, “Thank you for telling me that Shi Qing has always liked me.”
“I’ve bought fruit. I’ll leave it on the table, so feel free to help yourselves to some later. I’ll be leaving first then.”
The handsome officer whose slender figure and stride always revealed the fortitude of a soldier curled his lips and left in a good mood, just like that.
The group: “........”
“What did he just say?”
“...I think he just thanked us for reminding him that Professor Shi has always liked him...”
“This is a dream, right?”

[Ding! Qin Yunsheng’s animosity value: 65/100. The Host is so great! The Host is so cool! The Host is the best!!]
Shi Qing sat with crossed legs while looking at his computer.
[I didn’t do anything, so no need to praise me.]
System: [Huh?]
It was a bit confused.
It carefully looked at the history of the animosity value’s decline.
System: [But the animosity value keeps dropping.]
Shi Qing: [Oh, you mean that?]
Shi Qing: [It’s fine, normal even. That’s just how Qin Yunsheng is. There’s no need for me to do anything because he’ll fill in an entire love affair in his head.]
This was the first time the System had encountered such a situation. It couldn’t believe such a person existed.
Then, moments later&#k2026;
[Ding! Qin Yunsheng’s animosity value: 61/100]
This time, it clearly saw that the Host had indeed done nothing.
The System checked the data several times, but it didn’t find anything wrong. It could only mutter to itself as it went back to watching documentaries.
[Humans can be so strange.]
With the system gone, Shi Qing continued to look at his computer.
He was seated against the wall, which meant that people could only see his face and the back of his computer.
For most people in the office, this was what they saw:
Shi Qing was slouched on the couch with his legs up on the table, a bag of chips in his hands and looking at the screen with rapt attention.
He ate the potato chips occasionally too.
Crunch, crunch, crunch.
Grr, he must be watching some kind of dog blood drama.
Curse this slacker of a nobleman.
Yet no one dared to say anything about Shi Qing fooling around when he was supposed to be working.
This guy was notorious for holding grudges. If someone offended him, their life would be filled with hardships in the future.
So everyone else could only watch as Shi Qing comfortably looked at his computer and took a sip of his soda.
Then he ate some chips.
Crunch, crunch, crunch.
While Shi Qing chomped down happily, the door opened from the outside.
Qin Yunsheng strode in and placed the washed fruit on the table.
“I bought some fruit. Have some if you want.”
There was a chorus of answering voices in the office. All of the people here were relatively young and lively, and someone immediately got up to get some fruit.
Then they watched as Qin Yunsheng carefully and quickly picked out the biggest and sweetest ones, placed them on a plate, and brought them to Shi Qing.
And without taking his eyes off the screen for a moment, Professor Shi just opened his mouth and asked to be fed.
Hey! Your boyfriend worked so hard to wash fruit and bring some over to you, and this is how you thank him?!
Even the straight people in the room felt bad for Qin Yunsheng.
Yet the person in question didn’t feel offended at all as he looked at the little Marquis who was concentrating on his computer.
The little Marquis was obviously concentrating deeply. His eyes were already like dark gems set in a fair face, but the light from the screen seemed to further illuminate them like starlight.
The officer looked at the contents of the screen.
As expected, it was filled with technical jargon that he couldn’t understand.
Although he couldn’t understand it, he had an idea of how smart Shi Qing had to be to read this.
But other people couldn’t see him as the genius he was.
At this thought, the officer’s gaze towards his little lover softened even more.
He looked at Shi Qing, at how the tip of his upturned little nose seemed even more fragile and delicate in the light of the computer screen, at how his lips appeared an even deeper shade of red.
Previously, Qin Yunsheng never paid close attention to the appearance of other people, but he couldn’t understand how he had once disliked Shi Qing’s delicateness.
The little Marquis was like the personification of delicate, so much so that a single touch could elicit a shout of pain from him.
This kind of person was born to be spoiled and loved.
Shi Qing also possessed peerless technical expertise, but others still misunderstood him.
Despite Shi Qing acting like he was indifferent and even glad that they did...
Who in the world would be happy to live misunderstood?
Maybe Shi Qing’s resilience came from prior experience.
At the thought of this, the officer wanted to shrink his pitiful and cute boyfriend down and carry him around in his pocket so that Shi Qing would never have to worry about not being taken care of again.
Qin Yunsheng took a slice of orange and carefully peeled off all the white pith on it before passing it to the little Marquis’ red lips.
Shi Qing just opened his mouth while continuing to look at the screen. After chewing a few times, his beautiful face scrunched up.
“Wu...it’s sour.”
“Sour?”
The officer only considered the size, color and shape of the oranges when he bought them, but not whether they were sour or not. He quickly handed a tissue to the little Marquis.
“Spit it out.”
“Here, have a grape to get rid of the taste.”
Shi Qing, however, did not spit it out. He swallowed it with a frown on his face before turning and standing up, sticking to Qin Yunsheng’s shoulder.
The little Marquis had a very wicked smile on his fox demon-like face. His eyes still glittered like stars even without the bright light from the screen.
He grabbed Qin Yunsheng’s hand and pulled him to the lounge.
The officer was somewhat bewildered, his handsome face filled with confusion.
“What’s wrong? Are you tired?”
The lounge had a sofa and a coffee table within. It was clean and tidy because someone came by to clean it everyday.
Shi Qing squeezed their hands together as he softly said, “I want to sleep.”
Qin Yunsheng, who has already entered the mindset of a devoted boyfriend, said, “I think there’s a few blankets in the cupboard. You can sleep with those.”
He was about to turn around to get the blankets, but the little Marquis refused to let go. Those soft fingers pulled him to the edge of the couch.
Every time they got close, the officer would not dare to resist at all for fear of hurting the other person. This time was no exception.
Even though he could get the young Marquis to let go using a mere fraction of his strength, Qin Yunsheng ended up letting himself being pulled all the way to the couch.
With an indulgent smile, he leaned against the arm of the sofa and asked his spoiled little lover, “What’s the matter?”
Shi Qing suddenly shoved him, catching the officer off guard and sending him backwards onto the soft couch.
Qin Yunsheng didn’t even have time to react before the little Marquis fell down as well.
He subconsciously adjusted his position to not crush the other person while stretching out a long and slender hand to catch the incoming delicate body.
In this way, both of them fell smoothly on the couch.
The officer was on the bottom, and the little Marquis was on top.
Shi Qing’s red and glistening lips pursed in dissatisfaction. His thin and tender finger poked Qin Yunsheng’s chest lightly.
“That orange just now was really sour. The taste is still lingering in my mouth! Why did you buy such a sour orange?!”
The officer was somewhat at a loss for words at these intimate actions, but he tried his best to not blush too much as he replied.
“I bought it downstairs. I thought it was a sweet orange judging by its colour... Next time I’ll make sure it’s really sweet before I buy.”
“That’s no good. You’ve made me sour, so you have to make it up to me.”
The little Marquis was as unreasonable and unforgiving as ever, but this time was different from before. Although he was talking about compensation, there was a mischievous smirk on his pretty face. The way he looked at Qin Yunsheng was teasing as well.
The officer sensed Shi Qing’s attitude was off. He was both a little dazed and confused at this sudden turn of events. Before he could ask anything, Shi Qing had already gotten up slightly.
One of his hands was on the officer’s shoulder while the other fell on his collar.
The grip on his collar forcibly closed the distance between them.
In a split second, Qin Yunsheng opened his eyes and looked sharply at his little lover.
Shi Qing released him, “The taste, is it sour?”
After a brief pause, the furiously blushing soldier tried to collect himself. He fidgeted and opened his mouth.
“It’s sweet.”
