Food Preferences(1)

With that he stood up, grabbed his tray and sorted his trash before leaving. Mingze didn't care about the boiling expression on his face. He could finally breath a sigh of relief as if torn was removed from his heart. 

After leaving the cafe he saw, Zheyan. 

"Let's go somewhere my treat. I haven't been able to enjoy my snack because of some people."

"Oh wow, never expect a day would come where you would treat me."

"What? I'm not that cheap you know."

"It's because Fen Yichen always pay for us when you want to treat anyone, he's like your guardian or something."

Now that he thinks of it, he never treated anyone just like Zheyan said. Weird, he didn't notice. 

"Zheyan, do you know my favorite food?"

"That's obvious, braised pork. Why are you asking?"

Even he knew Zheyan's favorite food was grilled squid, it was only when it comes to Fen Yichen that he doesn't knowing, not his likes nor his dislikes. Strangely, he felt guilty. Yichen would always get the dishes he likes in front of him, but he never once bothered thinking of doing the same for him. 

He kept thinking that he was acting as his servant, but had it always been the other way around? The only time he actually worked for him was when he wrote notes for him and he even get paid doing that. 

"I changed my mind, let's wait for Yichen and eat at the new hot pot near school."

Feeling a strange sense of urgency he texted Yichen.

Mingze: Let's eat hotpot for lunch, my treat.

Yichen: What's the occasion? You're suddenly craving for a hotpot. 

Mingze: I'm just happy to kick out the idle person in our group. We're going to celebrate with Zheyan. 

Yichen: I'll be there.

Great! Since he agreed quickly, his goal was to observe what kind of food he would clip with his chopsticks. Now, he turned to Zheyan and told him they should stay in the library for a while. 

The library have aircondition and it was quiet, the perfect place to take a nap. Mingze hadn't been able to sleep because he was busy fixing the demo, he still needs to add the vocals so he should finish the base music this week and finalize things before the submission. 

He was glad, he could produce things in his room without a studio. Renting studio cost a lot after all. 

"Do you have an upcoming test?"

"I need to sleep for a while. The librarian wouldn't mind as long as we aren't that noisy."

Zheyan agreed, he would play moba while waiting so it was fine. Atleast, he have his earphones with him. At first he wanted to invite his friend to join him to duo queu that was before he realize he doesn't know hot to play these kind of games. He had always been the type to play mmorpgs.

They have similar features of it being a battle royale and the other being a dungeon raid, but essentially its still not the same. After losing a lot of star, he never invited Mingze again. It was already hard enough with all the trolls.

Xie Mingze didn't care too much, he would rather play his games. As soon as they found a hidden spot in the library, Mingze buried his face with his arms and closed his eyes. Meanwhile, Zheyan started to play his games in silence. There were times he cursed under his breath, but all in all they were in complete silence. Additionally, since it was not exam season, the library was a bit dilipidated. The librarian ignored them as long as they were not loud.

While sleeping, Xie Mingze started dreaming. Hai Zheyan was crying his eyes out while looking at him. 

"I can't believe you would be getting married so early."

"What the fuck are you saying?"

Zheyan gestured at him and then he turned to the mirror to see him in a wedding dress. Not a white suit, but a full blown white wedding dress with a long trail. He had a WTF expression on his face, he knew it was a dream so he didn't freak out that much.

Then the image changed he was in the altar, his parents were in the crowd. His father was bawling his eyes out, while his mother offered her handkerchief to him. The groom's face was covered with black scribbles so it was not known who it was. 

It must be because it was a dream, the rest of the people watching the wedding have blurred faces. 

"I'm so happy I can't believe we're getting married."

"Didn't you say it's just fake? Why are we suddenly getting married."

Xie Mingze couldn't move his mouth in this dream, he felt like a puppet being controlled by an outside force. The priest recited his speech before announcing the "You may kiss the bride." The groom opened the veil and gave a smile, he looked genuinely happy. 

He didn't feel repulsed being kissed by a man, because he was gay. This was all just a dream after all. That was his mindset as he let the man lean closer and closer to him, then all of t he sudden his eyes widen when he saw the face of the groom. 

It was Fen Yichen. He muttered a small fuck inside his brain.

The scene changed again, this time they are inside the room. The room was decorated in red, even the curtain and sheets. There were banners saying happy marriage and a bottle of wine beside the table. Mingze didn't have to think twice what this was, its the bridal chamber. 

Must be because he had been thinking of Fen Yichen so he appeared on his dreams. The groom sat beside him. The bed sank as another person's weight pressed down on the matress. 

"What is your favorite food?"

"You…"

His face was lifted, "Don't be so shy, we are now married and would consummate."
