For Each Other Chapter 8

Dou Yucong asked Zack Reynolds: "Why don't you fall in love?"

Zack Reynolds glanced at him and said, "I don't have anyone I like."

"Haven't seen each other for over thirty years?"

Zack Reynolds stopped talking.

A man in his thirties who has never been attracted to anyone is probably S3xually apathetic. He doesn't have that problem, so it's impossible that he hasn't had that experience.

In his past two relationships, he was wholeheartedly devoted. Even though he fell in love with the second relationship with a "living towards death" mentality, the feelings were real when he was with the other person.

But what does it matter if you love someone? In the end, it will just be broken glass.

"Why did you suddenly ask this?" Zack Reynolds cooked the noodles and placed them in front of Dou Yucong.

Dou Yucong got drunk the night before and acted like a spoiled child, saying that he felt dizzy and had a headache, and insisted that Zack Reynolds cook noodles for him. Zack Reynolds took out a pack of braised beef noodles from the refrigerator, but Dou Yucong refused and wanted the hand-rolled noodles with beef cut by himself.

Sometimes Zack Reynolds had no choice but to do as his younger brother asked.

"It's not sudden. I'm just heartbroken right now." Dou Yucong drank some wine. Although he was still unhappy, he felt better after the drunken rage. "I was just thinking, you've always been so cold and indifferent, and you don't interact with people. It's a waste of that face that's prettier than a girl."

Zack Reynolds was cleaning the pot of noodles. When he heard what he said, he turned his head and looked at him.

"Hey, don't get me wrong, I have no intention of getting close to you," Dou Yucong said, "Although you are pretty and I am heartbroken, I am not so hungry that I will do anything to get what I want."

"You use that word a little strangely."

"What I mean is, no matter how good-looking you are, you are still my brother. I am not that beastly," Dou Yucong said. "And even if you are also gay, I think we have the same body type, so there is no hope."

Zack Reynolds understood what he meant, but he always thought that Dou Yucong was a size one. After all, his height was there, 1.87 meters. How could such a tall guy allow people to press him like this on the bed?

He shook his head, shaking out the image in his mind.

"what are you thinking?"

"Nothing." Zack Reynolds cleaned up the pot and went to wash his hands. "I'll go to work. You can clean up after dinner."

Dou Yucong bit off the noodles and looked at Zack Reynolds's back as he walked out. He always felt that something was wrong.

"Hey," Dou Yucong said, "if you like men, what kind do you like?"

Zack Reynolds, who was washing his hands, was stunned for a moment, and his first reaction was Yao Zhan.

He pretended not to hear, washed his hands, went back to his room, and closed the door.

He said he was going back to the house to work, but actually he didn't have anything he wanted to paint. It was as if his brain was blocked recently and he had no inspiration at all. He blamed the weather for this, as it was too hot in the summer and he felt restless and had no desire to create.

Even though there was none, he still set up his drawing board and picked up his paintbrush.

Zack Reynolds looked at the blank drawing paper in front of him, not knowing where to start.

He remembered what his teacher said, that he was talented and spiritual.

He smiled self-deprecatingly, then put away his smile and threw the paintbrush on the bed.

The light grey sheets were stained with paint, and he stared at the spot, becoming more and more annoyed.

My cell phone suddenly rang, it wasn’t WeChat, but a phone call.

He didn't want to answer the call because he knew it must be another editor asking him for help.

"Hey, is your cell phone ringing?" Dou Yucong heard the buzzing sound through the bedroom door. He knocked on the door and said, "Why don't you answer it?"

Zack Reynolds ignored him and walked over to pick up the phone. An unfamiliar number was displayed on it, but the number was from that city.

Now to him, that city was equivalent to Yao Zhan, so after hesitating for a moment, he picked up the phone.

Zack Reynolds: "Hello."

It was a simple sentence, but he sounded a little nervous when he said it.

He originally thought that he would hear Yao Zhan's voice, but unexpectedly, it was another familiar voice that sounded over there. The other party said: "Ah Heng, it's me."

Zack Reynolds was about to hang up the phone, but the other party seemed to have expected it and said, "Wait a minute, please don't hang up yet."

Zack Reynolds didn't want to hear this voice, but he still endured the discomfort and asked in a cold voice: "Just tell me if you have something to say."

"Well, I'm out of town and I need some money for something urgent. It's not much, 5,000 yuan. Can you..."

Zack Reynolds hung up the phone.

While he was taking a deep breath in anger over the phone call, the person whose phone was hung up laughed, and then someone shouted, "You lost! Drink!"

The ex-boyfriend who had no restraint when drinking was drinking and playing games with a bunch of his friends. He lost the last game and was asked to call his ex to borrow money.

Shao Wei was also present and wanted to stop him, but before he could move, the man had already picked up a phone nearby and dialed a number.

How Fcuked up does a person have to be to do such a thing? Shao Wei was truly disgusted with the person in charge of his cooperative project. He wanted to call Yao Zhan right now and ask him to quickly take Zack Reynolds away and stop letting others harm him.

Zack Reynolds has heard a saying since he was a child: Who hasn't fallen in love with a few Sc*mbags when they were young?

He has always kept silent about the good and bad of his exes. Of course, he has nowhere to talk about it. The only person close to him, Dou Yucong, doesn't know that he is gay, let alone that he has ever been in a relationship.

Compared to talking, he is more used to swallowing everything. It doesn’t matter whether he can digest it or not. The important thing is to hide it first.

The phone in his hand seemed to have become that man's accomplice, which made him feel annoyed, but before throwing it away, Zack Reynolds suddenly remembered something and opened WeChat.

A few hours ago, Yao Zhan sent a message saying that he was coming here on a business trip.

Zack Reynolds was stunned. Just looking at these words reminded him of that day when they were in bed and made the sheets wet.

To put it bluntly, if for Zack Reynolds, the city is equivalent to Yao Zhan, then Yao Zhan is equivalent to S3x.

People may not believe in love, but you cannot escape desire.

Many times it is easy for adults to develop a tacit understanding, just like the day when Zack Reynolds said his hotel was nearby, Yao Zhan knew that he had tacitly agreed to what was going to happen next, just like now when Yao Zhan said he was coming here on a business trip, Zack Reynolds understood what he was about to face.

We are all in our thirties and single, and there is nothing shameful about this kind of consensual relationship. After all, having a regular boyfriend is better than going out to date.

This is what Zack Reynolds thought, but he didn’t know what Yao Zhan thought.

But no matter what Yao Zhan thought, he felt that the relationship between the two of them had reached this point. They would meet and have S3x when they had the chance, and then spend most of their time busy with their own affairs.

This kind of physical relationship will never be more hurtful than love.

He asked when Yao Zhan would arrive and whether he needed to be picked up.

Yao Zhan replied: No need, I’m here to study, there is a special bus to pick me up, it will probably arrive in the afternoon, I’ll contact you after I arrive.

Zack Reynolds replied with a "hmm" and said nothing more.

He sat on the edge of the bed, thinking about this, and after a while he walked to the closet.

He opened the wardrobe and saw the clothes neatly folded. These were all packed by Dou Yucong. Even the washed clothes had been rolled up into a ball and stuffed in there.

In Dou Yucong's words, he lives too casually.

There were underwear in the drawer under the wardrobe. He squatted down, opened it, and picked some.

All of them were dark-colored boxer briefs, not interesting at all.

He thought of the black thong that Dou Yucong mentioned, but it was just a thought. He felt that he probably couldn't stand that.

After all, although many people think that people who engage in art live a free and unrestrained life, in fact, Zack Reynolds is frighteningly conservative. The most daring thing he has ever done is to quarrel with Yao Zhan in school a long time ago.

Those extremely ambiguous scenes appeared in his mind again. Zack Reynolds himself didn't know what happened during this period of time. Maybe he had been eating vegetarian food for too long, and suddenly he felt greedy for Yao Zhan's meaty food. He was originally a man with no desires, but now he seemed to be in heat.

He gently rubbed the cloth in his hands, squatted there, leaned his back against the bed, and closed his eyes.

"Brother! What are you doing?"

Dou Yucong was watching TV in the living room. He was so bored that he wanted to find someone to chat with. He came over and knocked on the door, startling Zack Reynolds who was picking out underwear inside.

"Is there something?" Zack Reynolds quickly closed the drawer, opened the door, and looked at Dou Yucong with blushing cheeks.

Dou Yucong frowned and looked at him for a moment, then apologized politely: "Sorry to bother you."

"Ah?" Zack Reynolds didn't understand what he meant.

Dou Yucong smiled and said, "We are all men, I understand."

Zack Reynolds understood that this guy thought he was hiding to kill himself.

"You're overthinking. I'm painting."

"Painting?" Dou Yucong leaned over to look. "Your paintbrush is on the bed. Body painting?"

Zack Reynolds was a little embarrassed, so he pushed the person out and said, "Go and have your fun!"

Dou Yucong was driven away, and had no choice but to go back and continue watching his TV series.

On the other side, Yao Zhan, who had just sent a message to Zack Reynolds, was packing his luggage. While packing, he was thinking about when would be the most appropriate time to contact the other party tomorrow.

If he contacted her right after he settled in the hotel, he would seem too impatient and horny, but if he contacted her too late, he was afraid that Zack Reynolds would be unable to come because of something else.

You know, he went there not to study, but to find Zack Reynolds.

How does that sentence go?

Travel across half of China to sleep with you?

It seems to be said that.

More than a thousand kilometers, not close at all. Yao Zhan zipped up his suitcase, thought for a moment, then went downstairs with his cell phone and keys.

When he came back, he had two boxes of C*nd0ms and a tube of lubricant in his hands. He rolled the things in a piece of clothing and put them in the suitcase.

A mature man will always be prepared for anything he does. He has already prepared for a week of indulgence, so it depends on whether Zack Reynolds can withstand it.

Yao Zhan smiled, lay on the bed and looked through the chat history between him and Zack Reynolds, his mind filled with the other's thin yet comfortable body.

There were also those words and patterns tattooed on that fair skin, and he planned to take a good look at them one by one this time.
