The Beautiful Time With You

Chapter 429 - I Can’t Do This Anymore (1)



The two of them looked at one another for another good three seconds before speaking up with amazing unison that it almost looked as if they were sharing the same script, “Am I dreaming? This must be a dream, right?”

Lu Benlai shot Xia Shangzhou a disdainful look as he said, “Can you stop talking at the same time with me?”

Xia Shangzhou sneered coldly as he responded, “You’re the one who is copying me! Do you think that I’ll be so bored as to intentionally say the same words as you?”

Lu Benlai shrugged with a seemingly magnanimous attitude and said, “Forget it, I’m in no mood to fight with you now. Right now, I’m more concerned about our boss’ happiness.”

“Hah! What you’re truly concerned about is the number of your goddess, isn’t it so?” Xia Shangzhou unhesitatingly exposed Lu Benlai’s hypocrisy before sighing deeply to himself. “Boss must you feeling horrible at the moment.

“Stop saying words that you don’t mean. I reckon that you’re more concerned about your future and your freedom!” Lu Benlai ripped off the mantle of duplicity that Xia Shangzhou had put on.

Several seconds later, Lu Benlai sighed deeply and added, “But speaking of which, our Little Junior sure is amazing. She actually snubbed our boss! From this day on, Little Junior shall be my idol!”

“There are so many women who have offered their hearts to our boss, but our Little Junior unhesitatingly rejected him. This really reminds me of the song…” As Xia Shangzhou spoke, he began singing once more, “… Those who love me devote their hearts to me, yet I grieve in sorrow over the one that I love…”

Lu Benlai covered his ears as he exclaimed, “Speak properly!”

Xia Shangzhou: “As expected of the goddess that I look up to! She’s like a lone tree that stands proudly aside from the rest of the forest, completely unlike the other shallow women who only looks at faces!”

Lu Benlai: “Hey, what do you mean by ‘other shallow women’? Let me tell you that my future wife isn’t inside that lousy category of yours!”

Xia Shangzhou: “Hehe…”

Lu Benlai: “It’s the truth anyway! If my future wife is really someone who only looks at faces, she would have already given me her phone number the first time we met!”

“Uweh!” Xia Shangzhou clutched his stomach as he feigned a puking action.

It was at that moment that the door of the balcony opened once more and Lin Jiage walked back into the room.

Xia Shangzhou and Lu Benlai immediately put on a prim and proper look as they called out “Boss!” one after another.

However, Lin Jiage looked as if he hadn’t heard them. He nonchalantly walked past them and entered the washroom.

After the door to the washroom closed, Xia Shangzhou struck his chest as he gasped for air desperately and said, “This won’t do. The atmosphere is simply too heavy, I can’t take it!”

Lu Benlai: “We have to think of a way to console our boss, or else I’ll really die of asphyxiation tonight!”

Ten minutes later, Lin Jiage came out from the washroom.

Lu Benlai and Xia Shangzhou traded glances at one another before calling out “Boss!” with an exceptionally bright smile on their faces as they gathered around Lin Jiage’s side.

Lu Benlai: “Boss, you also know that girls tend to be reserved and shy. It’s only normal for your first confession to fall through. She just wants to test your true heart!”

Xia Shangzhou: “That’s right, boss! Do you remember a movie called 101 Proposals? The male lead in that show proposed to the female lead 101 times before he finally succeeded!”

Lu Benlai: “Ohhh! I watched that movie too, and it was really heartwarming. Boss, a single failure means nothing at all. Just look at how many times I have been slapped by my future wife in the face—my face is nearly swollen enough to float into the air—but I’m still pursuing her relentlessly!”

Xia Shangzhou: “Boss, don’t worry. You’ll be able to succeed next time. I believe in you!”

Chapter 430: I Can’t Do This Anymore (2)

After drying his hair, Lin Jiage nonchalantly shot a look at Xia Shangzhou and Lu Benlai and said, “Did I say that I’m going to continue chasing her?”

Ah… This plot doesn’t seem too right?

Lu Benlai and Xia Shangzhou were stunned.

Three seconds later, Lu Benlai spoke up, “N-no, you’re right! Why flatter her by chasing after her? Since she doesn’t agree to date you, so be it!”

Xia Shangzhou: “That’s right! Little Junior sure doesn’t know what’s good for her!”

“Three…” Lin Jiage began counting down, his voice far more intimidating than before. “… Two…”

“Boss, stop counting! I’ll scram, I’ll scram!” Lu Benlai immediately turned tail and fled.

“Boss, I was wrong. I said what that shouldn’t have been said. I’ll punish myself by scrubbing the toilet bowl!” Xia Shangzhou also quickly followed suit.

Lin Jiage watched the duo fleeing frantically away as he stood on the spot for a while. Then, he put down his hairdryer and lay down on his bed.

Lu Benlai and Xia Shangzhou could accept the reticent Lin Jiage, the poisonous-tongued Lin Jiage, and even the enraged Lin Jiage. However, they really couldn’t stand the heartbroken Lin Jiage.

He wouldn’t speak, play games, do his projects, or even eat. He simply lay on his bed with a long face all day long.

If that was just all, Xia Shangzhou and Lu Benlai might still have been able to tolerate it.

However, there was once Xia Shangzhou saw an adorable panda video on his laptop and remarked, “Pandas are such mystical creatures. They could have relied on their own abilities to make a living, but they chose to depend on their face instead. Do you know how gluttonous pandas actually are? It turns out that they can eat for nineteen hours a day, 365 days a year! Is there anyone who can possibly beat them when it comes to eating?”

Xia Shangzhou felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said, but somehow, it seemed like there was a word or two in his remark that had jabbed at Lin Jiage’s nerves. The latter picked up a pillow and threw it into his face, causing him to be scared silent for the rest of the night.

There was also this once where Lu Benlai was browsing through comedic videos, and he happened to stumble upon a cooking show. The background music was truly adorable ‘You said that I’m a little fleshy, and I need to slim it down. But I just can’t have enough each day, so I don’t care anymore. I want to eat meat meat, I must eat meat meat…’

It was a very melodious and uplifting song, and the food in the video was also particularly appetizing. Lu Benlai couldn’t help but play the video once more from the start. But for some inexplicable reason, Lin Jiage, who had been lying on his bed all this while, suddenly sat up and started counting down, “Three, two…”

Needless to say, before Lin Jiage could count down to one, Lu Benlai had already dashed out of the room with his phone.

That was not the weirdest of all. There was one day when Xia Shangzhou came back from work with a bowl of dumplings. He was just about to dig in when Lin Jiage suddenly walked over.

He thought that Lin Jiage wanted to have some too, so he warm-heartedly passed his dumplings over to Lin Jiage, saying, “Boss, have a bite.”

But shockingly, Lin Jiage actually threw the dumping he bought back into the dustbin by the stairway and enforced a new rule for Room 501: Dumplings are not allowed.

As such bizarre incidents began to stack up, the mood inside Room 501 grew lower and lower. Lu Benlai and Xia Shangzhou simply couldn’t take it anymore. They felt like Lin Jiage was really going to make them die of stress very soon.

But just as the room had finally gotten so cold to the point that it felt like a winter night in Siberia, Lin Jiage suddenly packed up his things and headed home.

He left school at three in the afternoon. Just as he was about to reach his home, he received a call.
