158 Zi Han is eating vinegar.... hehe

Yi Chen glanced over at him while saying, “Since when did you start to mind?”

Li Ran didn’t mind the one-sided beat down. It’s just recently she had been acting very weird especially when she was with that twin girl, Shannon. One time he peeked at what they were watching and he almost got a heart attack.

It was the video of two band members kissing during a live concert. He had no problem with it. It’s just that he couldn’t understand why they had that video on repeat while giggling.

That wasn’t the only thing that creeped him out though. What scared him half to death was when she turned to look at him and asked outrightly if he had kissed a boy before. Good god, no. His lips were reserved for her, okay?

“I will tell you all about it later so..... is that a yes or no?”

“Sure,” replied Yi Chen.

Zi Han who was hoping they would pair up was a little disappointed if he was being honest. He ended up paired with Shorty.

Shorty was skeptical at first but ten minutes in and things seemed to be going well. Zi Han was a great sparring partner. Well, that is until his attitude took a hundred and eighty-degree turn.

Even until the end, Shorty couldn’t understand what happened. Zi Han was fine one minute and vicious the next.

.....

What Shorty didn’t see was that after Yi Chen and Li Ran exited the training simulator Li Ran was holding his possibly aching shoulder after having overexerted himself while operating his mech.

After making a few complaints Yi Chen who was removing his training gloves suddenly stopped and reached over to rub his shoulder. Li Ran showed a contented expression like he was really enjoying himself.

Zi Han’s lips twitched his vicious gaze lingering on those hands rubbing someone else’s shoulders. His heart was in turmoil like he had been robbed of something. He kept on thinking about what Yi Chen said, that is he hadn’t done it for anyone else.

But as it turns out he wasn’t the only one. The thought of those powerful hands rubbing someone else’s back made his stomach twist painfully. He knew he was being unreasonable. Li Ran and Yi Chen were friends since childhood so of course, their relationship would be much closer. He probably took Li Ran to his love nest and gave him a full body massage while he was only qualified enough to get one back rub. Feeling suffocated Zi Han put his training gloves back on and said to Shorty, “Let’s go again.”

Shorty, “.....”

“Um... I think we met our hourly quarter,” replied Shorty who just wanted to go to the cafeteria and eat a hearty meal as a reward.

“Are you coming or not?” said Zi Han his voice a few degrees colder than usual.

Shorty found it hard to refuse. I mean how bad could it get, right?

Wrong.... absolutely wrong. Zi Han’s claws came out in that simulator and he almost crawled out of the training room to escape. What B ranked mental power? That meant shit when it came to Zi Han. And that mech of his was beyond words.

Zi Han who had lost control of his emotions and pushed hard during training regained his composure afterward. As an apology, he made a video call to his mother and let Shorty say hi to his goddess.

Shorty was appeased but Zi Han was most definitely not. He didn’t show it on his face and even smiled at people but those close to him could tell he wasn’t happy.

For the remaining classes, Li Ran felt a cold chill creeping up his spine like he was being watched by something lurking in the dark but whenever he turned around the line of sight disappeared.

Yi Chen also felt it but like Li Ran, he couldn’t find where such a malicious aura was coming from. However, he did notice that Zi Han was always serious with his work, and unlike before he didn’t glance over to smile at him whenever he felt his (Yi Chen’s) line of sight.

Something was definitely going on with Zi Han but despite running through the entire day he couldn’t understand what could have upset him from the last interaction they had in the morning.

By the end of the last class, Zi Han quickly got up from his seat and said goodbye to his group of friends before walking out of the class door. He decided to put himself in the right state of mind before their scheduled training.

He thought it was ridiculous that he cared about this very much. Thus he had to correct himself before Yi Chen showed up. After washing his face and telling himself to get his shit together he obediently waited for Yi Chen in the training hall.

Yi Chen who was still in class turned his head around and found that a certain someone had disappeared. Thinking Zi Han had run away again he hastily walked over to block Shorty’s path.

“Have you seen Cadet Han?” he asked but Shorty planned on keeping his mouth shut. Zi Han had given him the greatest gift and he would do whatever it takes to defend him no matter the crime.

“I don’t know. Why don’t you call him?” replied Shorty before running away like a rabbit after provoking the big bad wolf.

Yi Chen, “.....”

Li Ran walked over and asked, “What? Did your little disciple run away again?”

“I don’t know.... but if he did, I won’t let him off,” replied Yi Chen before walking away in huge strides heading for the training building.

Zi Han who had been impatiently waiting at the door heard footsteps coming from outside. He quickly ran back inside and pretended as though he was doing stretches all this time.

The door slid open and Yi Chen who was ready to angrily call Zi Han was startled to see the person sitting on the ground stretching his body. Zi Han turned his head and smiled but that sweet smile suddenly froze when he saw the person following behind Yi Chen.

What was Li Ran doing here? This was their two-person scheduled training but now there was a fuckin light bulb trotting over.

“You are here early,” said Yi Chen feeling a little surprised.

Zi Han’s gaze left Li Ran as he got up replying, “Let’s start,” in an icy cold tone like he was unhappy about something. This wasn’t the Zi Han he knew. Even when they were butting heads he never used this tone with him.

He was about to ask him what was wrong when Li Ran asked, “Can I join you guys today? I am in need of a good training session.”

Yi Chen, “Sure.”

Zi Han, “No.”

Li Ran, “???”

Author, “Um... I am just going to tiptoe out of here and let you guys solve this among yourselves..... (sound of a closing door).
