After finishing their run, they stopped by the cafeteria to buy breakfast.

They had sweated a lot from running and their clothes were wet, so they didn’t eat in the cafeteria. Instead, they planned to shower and eat breakfast in the dorm.

During the run just now, Jiang Shu didn’t push Bai Qiuyi too much, so Bai Qiuyi didn’t feel too tired after the run, and the two walked fast to the dormitory.

Before Zhang Daben and Cheng Feifei got up, Bai Qiuyi and Jiang Shu went to their room to get their clothes and entered the bathroom together.

This time Bai Qiuyi didn’t hesitate to take off his clothes and undressed quickly. Still, Jiang Shu had taken his clothes off faster, and now that he was naked, his eyes couldn’t help but linger on Bai Qiuyi’s figure.

Bai Qiuyi touched his own belly, “Huh, feels a lot stronger. Big brother, do you want to touch my abs?”

Jiang Shu looked at Bai Qiuyi’s flat and fair belly and found difficult to refuse this temptation. He didn’t say anything, but took a step towards Bai Qiuyi, and raised his hand to touch the boy’s abdomen.

Bai Qiuyi’s skin was very smooth, and Jiang Shu could clearly feel that the skin was delicate, totally different from his own tough one. He pressed his fingertips into it and the flesh gave in, it was very soft, with no trace of muscles. Yet, since he had seen Bai Qiuyi’s efforts, he didn’t want to pour cold water on him. 

He coaxed him, “Okay, this is good. If you keep working hard, you can be like big brother.”

“I want to touch big brother’s abs too.” Bai Qiuyi directly stretched out his hand to touch Jiang Shu’s belly.

Jiang Shu’s gut suddenly clenched, as if he was frightened, and a mouthful of air stuck in his throat.

He lowered his darkening eyes and looked at the little hand touching his lower abdomen, “Let’s take a shower.” 

If Bai Qiuyi touched him again, he knew for sure that he would get an erection.

So, was he also very sensitive? Every time the boy touched him he would react so quickly… Jiang Shu estimated that if he hadn’t vented last night and this morning, he would have become hard now.

Bai Qiu stopped teasing him. After all, the two were still covered in sweat.

“Big brother,” Bai Qiuyi tilted his head as the water washed over him and looked at Jiang Shu, “Do you know any trustworthy tutoring institutions?” 

“No, but I can help you find out,” Jiang Shu said almost immediately. Then he thought about the boy’s family background that he had guessed from various hints, “… Do you want to tutor others?”

“Exactly. I thought, I am idle anyway, so I might as well use my knowledge to create some wealth,” Bai Qiuyi smiled, “And my mother’s birthday is coming soon, so I plan to use the money I earn to buy her a gift.”

In the last mission world, Bai Qiuyi had been a teacher for decades, and he still remembers most of this knowledge. He was confident that he could teach students well.

The university that the original Bai Qiuyi was admitted to was one of the best in the country, and he had been admitted with excellent grades. With this background, Bai Qiuyi had no problem tutoring middle and high schoolers.

“I’ll ask my mother to ask around later. She knows a lot of people. There may be children from some families we know that need tutoring,” Jiang Shu replied. 

He would have wanted to directly give the boy money but he knew that the boy would not accept it. As for finding a tutoring institution? No way.

Jiang Shu felt that when looking for a tutoring institution, there would be a middleman to make a profit, and Bai Qiuyi would not be able to make a good profit. It was better to go to his mother directly since all the people his mother knew were all basically rich people. If Bai Qiuyi could taught the student well, he would certainly receive extra money apart from the agreed amount.

“Would this be too much trouble for Auntie?” Bai Qiuyi wondered.

If he asked a domineering CEO to step up and do such a thing, wasn’t that an overkill?

“Not troublesome at all. My mother probably wants me to ask her for help,” Jiang Shu commented casually. “I have been very independent since I was a child. If I can solve something myself, I would not ask other to do it. I think my parents probably have no sense of accomplishment. After all, as parents, their son rarely troubles them.”

The fact was exactly as Jiang Shu said. He phoned his mother, talked it out, and almost immediately as he finished speaking, her mother agreed.

“Mom, please give me some snacks. This is the younger brother I just recognized, and it’s your godson’s business.” Jiang Shu said worriedly.

“Okay, okay, my son finally asked me for help. How can I not take it seriously?” Mother Jiang replied good-humoredly.

“Thank you, Mom.” Jiang Shu then added, “I’ll take your godson home for dinner when I’m free someday…”

Jiang Shu didn’t avoid Bai Qiuyi when he made this call so after he hang up, Bai Qiuyi leaned towards him and bumped his shoulder, “Big brother, is it really okay for you to say this?”

Jiang Shu put down the phone and looked at him, confused, “Is there a problem?”

“You are so boastful…” Bai Qiuyi really couldn’t bear all the compliments. He rubbed his red face and muttered, “I’m ashamed just hearing it.”

Just now Jiang Shu praised him to mother Jiang without repeating any words. Bai Qiuyi poked him at the side and reminded him to stop but as a result, Jiang Shu boasted more and more enthusiastically.

“What’s there to be ashamed of?” Jiang Shu continued boasting, “I’m just telling the truth.”

Of course his younger brother was good in every aspect!

Bai Qiuyi leaned weakly back on the sofa. He had already said everything, what else could he do now? He only hoped that when he saw Jiang mother one day, she wouldn’t be too disappointed in him.

“Morning.” Cheng Feifei yawned and came out of his room.

“It’s late already,” Bai Qiuyi turned to look at him, “It’s almost eleven o’clock. Did you and Daben sleep very late last night?? Otherwise, why would they get up so late?

“Not too late, maybe three or four o’clock.” Cheng Feifei slumped down on the sofa, looking like he could fall asleep at any moment.

Bai Qiuyi reminded him, “My brother and I bought you breakfast and put it in the refrigerator. You can just heat it up when you eat later.” 

There was a kitchen outside the corridor, with pots and everything, and a microwave. None of it was new though, since other students had lived in their dormitory before them.

At noon, Bai Qiuyi and Jiang Shu had lunch outside the school. After eating, they went to a nearby large shopping mall.

When Bai Qiuyi was picking up the bed sheets, he heard Jiang Shu say casually, “Little brother, let’s buy a stuffed bear to take back, then you can hold it and sleep with it at night.” 

He said this out of pure desire for Bai Qiuyi’s sleep to be good but what Bai Qiuyi heard was something different.

He turned his head to glance at Jiang Shu, “I won’t buy it, tonight too I will sleep with you.”

Originally, Bai Qiuyi had not thought of this matter, but since Jiang Shu mentioned it, Bai Qiuyi planned to continue let him act as his stuffed bear.

Looking at what Jiang Shu said just now, it seemed like he didn’t want to sleep with him. This was too heart-wrenching, after all they have done together!

Jiang Shu didn’t hear anything wrong with Bai Qiuyi’s tone, but he paused when he heard these ambiguous words, and suddenly a way to save Bai Qiuyi’s money came to his mind.

“If you want to sleep with me from now on, then there is no need to buy bed sheet,” then he suggested, “Just take turns changing mine and yours.”

Bai Qiuyi stared at Jiang Shu who was giving sincere advice with an honest and open face, and felt that he just kept misunderstanding Jiang Shu, this boy truly had no intention of sleeping with him.

In the end, Bai Qiuyi bought a bed set, after all, he liked being prepared.

After that, the two went to the clothing area.

Bai Qiuyi chose two sets of sportswear, and Jiang Shu also picked up two sets of the same style, but with different sizes. In his words, they were ‘brotherly’ clothes.

When it was time to check out, Jiang Shu said he would pay the bill, but he was worried that Bai Qiuyi wouldn’t want to, so he coaxed him, “You didn’t accept my red envelope but you should accept the clothes I give you, right?”

Bai Qiuyi didn’t argue with him. After he made money, he would just buy some gifts for Jiang Shu.
