Ex-Girlfriend Blackens Every Day: Chapter 6
ARC 1: WHITE LOTUS EX-GIRLFRIEND (6)
"Hello, my name is Chen Qingli, your sister's boyfriend. Please advise me well."
The young guest's attire was appropriate for the occasion. He had a white shirt with sleeves slightly rolled up at the cuffs. The leather on the men's quartz watch was a dark black. Cool-headed and steady; a completely different type from himself.
Jiang Qiyun was stunned.Please read this at onemachineshow.blogspot.com
He should be considered an 'acquaintance'.
The expert that taught Linlang how to play games at the milk tea shop.
The tall boy who wiped tears for his sister.
And... the thief who was about to take away his loved one.
Unacceptable. He couldn't accept this.
He doesn't want to admit defeat.
He doesn't want to give her away to outsiders.
The teenager's throat and eyes were filled with an acrid anger. He was nearly glaring at the composed thief like a hated enemy, which caused the latter's hand to freeze in midair.
The old housekeeper was embarrassed to see this scene. One was the young master he took care of for seven years, while the other was the favorable 'future son-in-law'.
Linlang ultimately broke the deadlocked silence.
"My brother isn't sensible. Don't mind him."
Although there is an element of blame in this remark, the favoritism was obvious.
Jiang Qiyun was secretly ecstatic over the discovery.
She still cares about him.
But the next development made him dumbfounded.
The girl gently grabbed the hand stretched out in the air and interlocked their fingers as she cast an appeasing look to her sweetheart. She was oblivious to the abnormal mind her younger brother had for her, or that she was inflating his ambitious desire to possess her.
She didn't know, that was why she was so innocent and happy.
That kind of cruelty and callousness pushed his bones into the wretched abyss repeatedly.
She said, "A Li and I have discussed it. We'll get engaged when our parents come back."
She said, "When I graduate, we'll go to Verona for the wedding."
She said, "We also want to go to this one small town in Greece. The sunset there is gorgeous."
She said so much, and the future plan was so beautiful and perfect.
Only, it didn't have him in it.
His deliberate provocations hurt the person who once regarded him as a treasure, and as a result, she expelled him from her future world.
Forever banished.
Jiang Qiyun's expression was absent-minded. Linlang sounded hesitant when she said, "If possible—if it isn't troublesome or brazen to say... I hope you could come, and... Miss Cheng can also come. I will persuade Dad."
Such formal and polite wording!
The refined courtesy was frightening!
The young man's lips were pale, but he did his best to hold back the sorrow from welling up.
Oh, I wish you happiness.
He stuck his hands in his trouser pockets, looking like he couldn't care less and was completely at ease.
"Ai? Young Master? It looks it's going to rain outside..." The old butler chased after him, but the figure had long since disappeared. Soon, there was a heavy downpour.
He staggered in the rain.
"Hey—you stinky brat! Don't you want your life?"
The sound of the emergency brake was mixed with the man's scolding, but the teenager just glanced at the person coldly. His gloomy state terrified the driver into unwitting silence.

Cheng Xin was wearing an apron as she happily planned a romantic candlelight dinner to celebrate their established relationship. As soon as the key twisted in the doorknob, she quickly washed her hands and was like a standard virtuous wife, expressing concern for the 'little husband's' return.
"Qiyun, you came back so early today! I bought your favorite lobster-"
The woman's words stopped abruptly.
Jiang Qiyun walked inside without a word. He was soaking wet and water was dripping from every corner of his clothes.
His sorry sight was unprecedented.
Under the influence of his sister's cleanliness, the 18-year-old boy was always neat and tidy. Even after a fierce and alluring fight, the young man would wordlessly rush to take a shower.
Cheng Xin occasionally felt a sense of loss because he didn't embrace or kiss her forehead in a compassionate way.
He never hugged her to sleep.
The most he would do when lying next to her was to play on his cell phone.
She could only find comfort in the faint obsession in his eyes.
Cheng Xin consoled herself. Most boys this age haven't learned how to cherish their lovers. Jiang Qiyun was terribly handsome, like a prince lying in a field of roses calling girls to spoil him, not to mention the fact that there was a beautiful sister at home! Having thought of that sister, Cheng Xin blushed.
The girl was a few years younger than her, yet she was her younger brother's girlfriend!
It's no wonder people came to the door!Please read this at onemachineshow.blogspot.com
She was very panicked at that time, afraid that Jiang Qiyun could not bear the pressure and admit defeat before his family. To her surprise, this boy was more courageous than she thought and even confessed to her in public! Aiyah, thinking back to that time when he kissed her in front of everyone, Cheng Xin felt her face redden from embarrassment.
That little scoundrel was extremely two faced and always messed around. He even dared to molest her the first time they met!
"How did you get this wet? Didn't you bring an umbrella? Why didn't you call me?" Cheng Xin's heart was tied to said scoundrel. She was caught off guard by his drenched and depressed appearance that was just like a newborn puppy abandoned by the entire world.
How could someone hurt him so callously?
She stepped forward and couldn't help but want to comfort him with a hug.
"Did something happen? Don't be scared, I'm here." After seeing those foggy eyes, Cheng Xin's motherly instinct flooded out. She wanted to touch the child's head, or better yet, kiss him a few times.
Cheng Xin forgot how because a presumptuous female student believed she could intimately rub his head, Jiang Qiyun secretly made the girl so miserable that she had to transfer schools.
Since then, the girls were still moths to a flame, but they didn't dare get too close for fear of disgusting their school prince. The little girls naively comforted themselves, saying the other party merely didn't like physical contact and that it was normal for the school prince to be so lofty and cold.
That was widely believed until that one time during the finals of a provincial basketball competition. Jiang Qiyun, the ace placer, had been blocked by a few opponents and encountered a mishap when making a shot— his shank suffered a fracture.
In order to reject the girls' care, the injured protagonist downplayed the injury. He was staunch and forbearing with no need for anyone's sympathy. However, when a certain girl ran over from the bleachers, his attitude immediately changed, saying it hurt here and there, there was no place that didn't feel pain, and that Yunyun was dying. The rival team felt so guilty they almost wanted to cut their abdomen in apology for their offense.
The dark-haired girl also thrown into a panic and madly rubbed at his head, chest, and legs. The 17-year old's face was crimson red, yet he shamelessly received her sympathy.
In the end, the bystanders couldn't help but roll their eyes over and over again. Never had they seen such a person who can touch porcelain1!
Some people understood and were heartbroken. So it turns out that their lofty and cold school prince didn't hate physical contact, but hated any touch that wasn't from that particular someone!
Pa--
The loud sound shocked Cheng Xin.
He slapped her hand away and spoke with disgust. "Don't touch me!"
The woman's eyes widened in disbelief.Please read this at onemachineshow.blogspot.com
A relationship that required physical intimacy was like a fire meeting dry wood. It was uncontrollable at first, but once the flames burn out, only cold ashes remain.
For the most part, young boys either obsess over perfectly mature bodies and indulge themselves in the joy of conquest because of a physiological longing or perhaps a...desire to realize their fantasies by finding someone who resembles a person they can't have.
It was despicable, but realistic.
- To touch porcelain (碰瓷—pèng cí)a kind of scam where someone stages an accident and pretends to have received serious damages in order to get compensation from the victim↩︎
Thank you for updating!!!
ReplyDeleteI wonder the same. There are so many MLs with mysophobia, I wonder how many men in real life the authors have met that have it. The funny thing is, MLs have mysophobia to stay "clean" until they meet the right woman. FLs just have to protect their chastity, no help from mysophobia. So would MLs stay clean without mysophobia? 🤔 Or would their "manly" urges take over?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update!
Aw man. Cheng Xin did nothing wrong though... :<
ReplyDeleteOh, man. This is so excited ><
ReplyDeleteWell most male leads are super rapey. The mysophobia is because otherwise they'd have been arrested long before meeting the FL, can't have an overbearing president story in a jail cell!
ReplyDeleteI can agree with that... That whole thing got me into yuri, though the MC is always either the r*pey one or the masochistic one. It did not change much. My standards for MCs are gradually getting f*cked over. Started with "just has to be strong" then it went to "has to be strong and anti-hero" and then it went to "no isekai" then to "Chinese only" then it went to "cultivation only" then I hit a "female MC only" which severely limited my choices, then I went "MC must be dominant, or at the very least not submissive" THEN I went down the "yuri only" route. Now I'm at the phase of "no romance but a lot of revenge and bloodshed" which should be this.
