I’ll Still Love You Even If You’re a Man Vol 3 Chapter 31

***********************************************
Mai Ding was so surprised by the news. He couldn't close his mouth for a few minutes. An Ziyan could always frighten him easily in a soft way or in a sad way. Mai Ding thought that one day, he would not suffer from it. Is it too soon for them to live together?
 
But he realized something. "You are joking. Where would we live? Even if you can drive, it
will take you more than four hours to get here. It means that you have to spend atleast eight hours in the car. You will be too tired."
 
It seemed that Mai Ding is not so stupid.
 
"We can break even."
 
"Break even?"
 
"We can choose a place between the two schools. Although it is a little troublesome, it can be a good idea. As long as I get up earlier every day."
 
The problem is solved, but another comes in. "What do I say to my parents?"
 
"lt's your business." An Ziyan dissociated himself from the issue.
 
"These are our affairs, and to think that you invited me to live with you sincerely? You thoughts would do it, hey man, I am afraid that you will lose face."
 
"I am not really serious. You don't have to go with it."
 
"You should keep your word. Do you want to drink the urine that you have peed?" Mai Ding said vulgarly.
 
An Ziyan turned a sharp eye on Mai Ding. Mai Ding smiled blandly "lt's just an a.n.a.logy. Dont be so serious." Then, he reached out his hands to An Ziyan and ma.s.saged his shoulders "So, you pay the rent?"
 
Mai Ding had to get off the car and watch An Ziyan drive away.
 
"Why did I fall in love with you?" Mai Ding came back gloomily. When he arrived at home, he srill looked gloomy. His mother couldn't take that any more. "What is wrong with you? You look so upset."
 
"Mom, my girlfriend wants to break up with me."
 
"What happened?" His mother sat down with a straight-face.
 
"She said that we cannot see each other often, now that we are in different places, so she can't bear the loneliness. She feels so lonely." Mai Ding frowned.
 
"You have no choice."
 
"I love her so much. I cannot live without her." Recently, without a good meal,
Mai Ding looked so weak. He was going to bang his head against the wall, but his mother
stopped him. She was quite pumped and said "Don't be so silly. It's not worth it. We can have a talk. Don't be irritating. We can find a good solution."
 
"She said she would do that unless I live with her. Mom, I know that we cannot reach an agreement. Don't worry about me. I would be your son in another life. I am not an obedient boy.”
 
His mother felt anxious. "Why are you thinking of me? You are a man now. It would be okay if you live with her. I am open-minded."
 
"Really? Don't push yourself to do it."
 
"Not in the slightest. We want to be grandparents. If you have a baby, you can get married as soon as possible."
 
"Well..."
 
"Will you live far away from here?"
 
"Not so far. We will live a room which her relative fixed for us. I will study hard."
 
Mai Ding was moved by his mother. "Nothing is anything. You should've talked to me in the first place, so you wouldn't have been so sad." His mother touched Mai Ding's thin face. She thought that it was normal that her son would live with his girlfriend. Spending time bonding with lovers and then holding a wedding was quite faddish nowadays. Her son wouldn't lose anything. However, the matter was not that simple.
 
"I'm going back to my room."
 
When he was alone in his room, he behaved quite deviously. He thought about how easy it was
to persuade his mother. He told the good news to An Ziyan as soon as possible.
 
"I did it. How about the house?"
 
"Good."

The next day, An Ziyan told the address to Mai Ding. Mai Ding was so excited in car. He could not believe that he would have a house only for them. It was completely unimaginable. They
arrived at the house at the same time.
 
"What a coincidence to meet you here." Mai Ding patted An Ziyan's shoulders with smile. His words were ignored by An Ziyan. When they opened the door, Mai Ding was shocked.
 
Not for the s.p.a.ce, beauty or daylighting, but because there was nothing in the house. It was empty. Mai Ding pinched An Ziyan. "Are you kidding? It is good enough? You're a b.a.s.t.a.r.d. You wound me up to be here."
 
"You can buy whatever you want." An Ziyan took out a credit card and handed it to Mai Ding.
 
Mai Ding felt embarra.s.sed and took back his hands. "Why didn't you tell me any sooner? It was so embarra.s.sing. Let's go. I want to you to come with me." He pulled An Ziyan down the stairs. An Ziyan wasn't willing to do that, but he didn't reject Mai Ding. It had always been that way.
 
They spent the whole day purchasing must-haves items. What they can do now is to wait for those things. Mai Ding was standing in the room and let out a sigh of relief. "Everything... looks quite good."
 
"Really?" He stood by Mai Ding, turning back to the window.
 
"I really like them. The environment, the supermarket, the buses and especially... you."
 
"You deserve it."
 
The meaning of those words took him a long time to understand. An Ziyan meant to talk about the photo, but he had already forgotten it. He didn't want to waste time on boring things. He just wanted to enjoy the happiness. He held An Ziyan's hands tightly "So you want to compensate me for that. It's not enough!" He played a joke hand in hand with An Ziyan.
 
"You can have as much as you want."
 
"Really." Mai Ding couldn't believe it.
 
"Yeah,"
 
"I want your previous car." He was still thinking about the car.
 
"Okay."
 
"I want to sleep on the left."
 
"Mhm."
 
"I want to have a single wardrobe."
 
"Ok."
 
Mai Ding' ideas were growing, blooming.
 
"You need love me forever."
 
"Foe that matter, I should think it over."
 
"You shouldn't take back your words."
 
"So what?"
 
The door bell was ringing. Mai Ding ran to the door after making faces at An Ziyan. Mai Ding was busy with fitting up the house. He wanted to make the house warmer. This kind of life made him feel happy.
 
Mai Ding owned the car that he wanted. He was so excited that he wanted to try it today. He got up at 6AM, because he didn't want to be late. He always behaved according the rules. He wakes up An Ziyan: "Get up! Or else, we will be late."
 
"Too noisy." It didn't matter to him.
 
"You will not pa.s.s the final test!"
 
"Go away!" An Ziyan threw a pillow at Mai Ding.
 
"I don't want to worry about you anymore. Are you a student, if you don't go to
school?"
 
"I don't want to repeat it again."
 
Mai Ding's lips were sealed at once, and he then glanced at An Ziyan, and went out with the car key. This was the most expensive thing that he has ever owned. As soon as he got on, he could not disguise his curiosity to the car. He was not very familiar with the car. He got his car started and drove to school.

30 minutes later, An Ziyan answered his ringing phone. "What's up?"
 
"I had a car accident. I need your help, and don't forget to bring money"
 
"Oh, come on!"
