Chapter 1457 - 1454: What Unforgivable Sin Did I Commit

Chapter 1457: Chapter 1454: What Unforgivable Sin Did I Commit

After Fei Ge left, Zi Ruoxi showed a somewhat unnatural expression. To be honest, she was still a little upset. Of course, Han Wenxi could see that.

He approached her, his face full of guilt, as if he had committed some unforgivable crime.

Looking at her beautiful face that could make any man lose his mind, her bright eyes were full of spirit.

"Yi Bing, it’s my fault for not explaining clearly beforehand. Please don’t blame me, okay?" Han Wenxi said apologetically. Seeing that Zi Ruoxi was still a bit gloomy, he sighed, "If you’re really uncomfortable, I won’t force anything. Yi Bing, I truly hope you won’t blame me, okay? I genuinely consider you a friend, which is why I’m saying this." Han Wenxi’s sincerity was obvious.

Zi Ruoxi was somewhat at a loss, to be honest. Working in such a place would definitely exceed her boundaries of acceptance, but why did she still reject the idea of homosexuality? Her friends around her, her benefactor Li Yaxuan, and Brother Qiao Muyun who grew up with her, they are all gay. They aren’t particularly bad or evil; they just need more people to understand and sympathize with marginalized groups.

Every emotion has its sorrow; there are times when circumstances force one’s hand. But as long as it’s genuine, it’s worthy of respect and care. Isn’t that what she’s been saying? Why, when she’s here, is she still clinging to the traditional idea of male-female pairing? Isn’t this self-contradictory?

Zi Ruoxi, oh Zi Ruoxi, what are you really thinking? What are you still holding back? Aren’t you looking to live a new life? How can you bear to refuse these sincere friends?

"Xi Qiu... I..." Zi Ruoxi finally spoke, but amidst caution, she felt it hard to continue. After a pause, seeing the hopeful look in his eyes, she couldn’t help but be moved. Gentle words flowed smoothly through her neat teeth, "Alright. I accept your invitation. Let’s go in and give it a shot!"

Han Wenxi was overjoyed upon hearing this; he originally thought there was no hope, and unexpectedly, things took a turn, giving him hope again.

"Yi Bing..." Han Wenxi couldn’t help but call her name, even grabbing her hands in excitement. His delicate face lit up with joy as he said emotionally, "Thank you! Thank you so much! Yi Bing, I really don’t know what to say. Haha... This is so wonderful." For a moment, he continued to hold her hand, shaking it non-stop.

Zi Ruoxi also laughed. Her big eyes filled with gentle light. This boy was very pure. She liked boys who weren’t reserved, who were frank, who wore sincerity and heartfelt truth on their faces.

"How old are you, Xi Qiu?" Zi Ruoxi blurted out.

Han Wenxi was taken aback but soon laughed heartily.

"Twenty-two. How about you!" Han Wenxi said happily. He realized he hadn’t released Zi Ruoxi’s hands yet, quickly blushing, letting go, and scratching his head, "Sorry, I got a bit too excited just now. Yi Bing, don’t mind!"

"Haha, it’s okay. I’m not that petty!" Zi Ruoxi laughed, then, gazing at his neat and clean face, she suddenly felt good, saying excitedly, "I’m one year older than you—twenty-three. Why don’t you call me Sister Yi Bing?"

Han Wenxi frowned. To be honest, the thought of calling her sister made him a little uncomfortable.

"Why call you sister? You look so young. Yi Bing, I like your name very much; it’s very Korean style. I’ll just call you Yi Bing. Besides, you’re so bright, trendy, and cool. To be honest, I feel a bit insecure standing beside you; you overshadow me." Han Wenxi said without a trace of inferiority.

"Pfft~" Zi Ruoxi couldn’t help but laugh, "Xi Qiu, is this how you compliment people? I’m a girl, how can I compare with you? Oh well, I like this kind of state, it feels very fresh." After saying that, Zi Ruoxi suddenly thought of a small question, unable to resist asking, "Why do you call yourself Xi Qiu? Do you like that kind of insect?"

Insect?!

Sweat, where did she get that idea? Has she been calling him thinking he was an insect all along? Heavens, I’m going to pass out! Is there a mistake?

"I... I... I’m not, not the insect kind of Xi Qiu..." Han Wenxi found it difficult to speak. He never stutters, so why now? He soon pursed his lips, shyly smiled, "It’s the ’Xi’ from Junxi and ’handsome’ from ’handsome guy’."

Uh...

This time, Zi Ruoxi was stunned; after such a misunderstanding, it turned out he wasn’t Xi Qiu but Handsome Xi! Gosh, how embarrassing. Zi Ruoxi suddenly felt awkward, a blush spreading across her cheeks.

"Oh, oh, sorry! I misunderstood... Haha. Handsome Xi, you really are handsome!" Zi Ruoxi teased playfully, her eyes shimmering with amusement.

This made his cheeks turn red.

"Yi Bing, let’s go in." Han Wenxi said straightforwardly.

"Mm." Zi Ruoxi responded. Then the two walked shoulder to shoulder into the gay bar named girl.friends.

......

Upon entering, Zi Ruoxi was immediately captivated by the green glass walls full of glazed tiles. They were dazzlingly bright. There was a nearby window with a few slits. Zi Ruoxi couldn’t resist approaching, and upon seeing it, she gasped. Sweat, two men embracing each other, lying on the sofa kissing...

Don’t stare rudely, don’t stare rudely! Quickly turn away, feeling her heart racing, and cheeks heating up... Heaven, this truly is a gay bar. People here are so bold...

"Yi Bing, come this way." Han Wenxi walked ahead, noticing Zi Ruoxi had slowed her pace. He turned to call her. Then seeing her face flushed, he found it odd and walked over, looking through the slit to understand what was going on.

Han Wenxi reached out and patted her shoulder.

"Yi Bing, are you alright? It’s just like this here... You’ll get used to it." Han Wenxi explained briefly, but couldn’t help holding his breath inside. Damn, couldn’t they get cozy somewhere else instead of by the entrance? Do they have any public decency at all? These rotten guys...

Zi Ruoxi felt a sinking feeling. Her big eyes showed fluctuating light.

"Handsome Xi..." Zi Ruoxi called softly.

"Hmm?" He replied, confused.

"Are you gay too?" Zi Ruoxi hesitated, but still asked.

This sudden question made Han Wenxi’s heart leap.
