It's Actually Not Easy Wanting to be a Supporting Male Lead-Chapter 15 part7

"What are you doing?!" Sui Yuan reacted subconsciously as he burst out in anger. He reached out to grip the arm Yue Minghe had around his waist and utilized some wrestling skills that he had learnt from the other worlds.

Although this body's physical skills were not outstanding, Sui Yuan was still able to easily flip Yue Minghe who was about his height. Fortunately, at this crucial point, he still remembered that the other was his character's friend and thus, did not directly throw him on the floor. Instead, he flung him towards the sofa.

Yue Minghe was not surprised at Sui Yuan's reaction. He extended a hand to break his fall as he landed on the sofa, thereby lessening the force of impact his body had against the furniture. Soon after, he propped himself up on his elbows as he casually lay on his back. He raised his eyes to stare at Sui Yuan. The small smile on his lips did not change even in the slightest.

In contrast, Sui Yuan was very perturbed. He covered the area on his neck that had been 'disrespected' by the other and stiffly widened the eyes that the original character usually kept narrowed enticingly into big circles. An ineffable purity and childishness leaked out of him.

Yue Minghe was evidently pleased with Sui Yuan's expression. He raised his hand to cover his mouth as he coughed gently, as if trying to stop himself from smiling, "What's the matter? It's rare to see you so…shy. Haven't you long since been used to this kind of thing?"

Sui Yuan had just barely managed to collect his character's wits. He rudely glared at the other with a ferocious gaze, "Used to it? How can it even be the same?! Females and males are on opposite sides of the spectrum!" Pausing for a moment, he added powerlessly, "In the future, don't make this kind of joke anymore."

"What if I said that I wasn't joking, ne?"The smile in Yue Minghe's eyes vanished, his expression turning serious, "Didn't you always ask if I liked you?"

"You said you didn't," Sui Yuan knitted his eyebrows.

"That was because I didn't dare say the truth," Yue Minghe stood up and walked towards Sui Yuan. Sui Yuan fought the desire to take a step back. He stared at Yue Minghe with vigilance and warning.

Who knew if Sui Yuan's warning worked, or if Yue Minghe himself didn't want to step out of line again, but the latter stopped before he invaded Sui Yuan's personal space. He helplessly spread out his hands, "Look, if I told you, you would have acted like you acted now…perhaps, we couldn't even stay friends."

Yue Minghe's expression was extremely depressed and grieved. It fit his delicate and handsome face and simply turned the hearts of everyone who saw him soft like cotton. Even if one had to give up everything they owned, they would still want to coax this person until he was happy again. Unfortunately, Sui Yuan was cold-hearted by nature. Aside from having his hair stand on end, he did not have any other feelings, "Since you're worried about that, you should have never said it."

"However, I obviously overestimated my own ability to endure," Yue Minghe's expression became ambiguous as he gazed at the buttons Sui Yuan had yet to button up. His eyes flitted over his exposed collarbone, expression meaningful.

Sui Yuan："…………………………"

After silently buttoning it up to the top which was unlike how the original character usually did it, Sui Yuan ignored Yue Minghe's slightly regretful gaze and showed a grave expression, "As you've opened up this topic, then I'll speak frankly. I'm sorry but I can't accept men. If you still want to remain friends, then we can't continue on this path."

Yue Minghe's expression changed slightly, but he didn't seem to be deterred by Sui Yuan's direct and efficient rejection, "You can't accept it? Really can't accept it? I don't think so. Your reaction was clearly not of someone who dislikes men getting close to him."

Sui Yuan："…………………………"

——Hehe, that was just a reflection of his habits that had been created by Zhao Xihe! Every time they were together, Zhao Xihe would get fresh with him, OK?!

He really didn't know how Zhao Xihe will feel when he finds out that his previous integrity-less actions have benefited someone else while he himself got nothing out of it….

Only, although he understood what the other was implying, Sui Yuan absolutely could not admit it, "I don't understand what you mean."

"…OK, ba," Yue Minghe stared at Sui Yuan, whose expression was tense, and compromised, not pressuring him to continue on this subject matter, "Actually, there isn't much of a difference between men and women. Perhaps you could try it out and see if you can accept it…."

"There's a big difference, OK?!" Sui Yuan interrupted Yue Minghe's words, "With a woman, I'm the one topping! If I'm with a man…will you be willing to let me top you?!"

Yue Minghe stared at him blankly. Soon after, he smiled indulgently, "OK, ah. If that's what you wish, anything is good. I don't mind being on top or on the bottom."

Sui Yuan："…………………………"

——WTF, I'm unexpectedly speechless right now!

After a moment of silence, Sui Yuan cast a complicated look at Yue Minghe, "Sorry, I don't think I can get hard even if I'm on top."

Yue Minghe："…………………………"

5237: "Stupid host! Is your integrity still intact?! Quickly put it back together! Yingyingying…my pure and kindhearted host has been completely led astray by Zhao Xihe. QAQ"

Sui Yuan："……You, shut up!"

Seeing the dumbfounded Yue Minghe, although his integrity had already been smashed to pieces, Sui Yuan couldn't help but feel a subtle happiness from finally having the pressure lifted off of him. He walked to the door leading out of the lounge and briefly brushed past Yue Minghe, patting him on the shoulder, "So, give up, ba. If you don't raise this issue again, we can still be good brothers."

Yue Minghe turned to look at Sui Yuan and revealed a bitter smile, "I already gave you my heart, how can I take it back, ne?"

"I believe in your rationality and self-control," Sui Yuan irresponsibly threw this matter to Yue Minghe to deal with.

"What if it's nonsexual, ne?" Yue Minghe was rather unwilling to give up, "If you can't accept men, then I'm willing to endure. So long as you have me in your heart…."

Sui Yuan halted at the door. He pulled it open and then turned his head to send Yue Minghe a satirizing smile, "Nonsexual? Do you think that I, a playboy who's been with countless women and spend every night in excessive debauchery, would have the patience to play this kind of pure, love story with you?"

After saying this, Sui Yuan directly left the lounge and flung the door shut without even looking at Yue Minghe's expression.

After the door completely separated him from Yue Minghe's eyes and ears, Sui Yuan sighed in relief. He asked 5237, quite apprehensively, "My acting just now, it was fine, right?"

"A normal person ought to give up after being so ruthlessly rejected. I'm just afraid that the supporting male lead is not an ordinary person. After doing that, he might actually blacken…" 5237 was somewhat worried, "Silly host, your actions just now were really too scummy, a scum even amongst the scum of society, ah! It wasn't enough to throw another's sincerity onto the ground, you even had to trample all over it!"

Sui Yuan, who was shot in the knee with the words 'scum', felt especially bitter, "I also didn't want to do that…however, if I had been tactful and left even a tiny crack, the other might have bit onto me and refuse to let go. It's better to just directly put a stop to things."

5237 rubbed against Sui Yuan in sympathy. This was the first time it and its silly host had encountered a suitor as clingy and motivated as this—aside from Zhao Xihe–so Sui Yuan had been flustered and didn't know how to cope with it. Furthermore, not even 5237's database had any better solutions.

Moreover, Zhao Xihe had also pestered him like this in the very beginning. Even if you cursed him, he wouldn't leave. Even if you tried to avoid him, you still wouldn't be able to avoid him. After entangling with its silly host in so many worlds, didn't he manage to successfully catch him and pocket him in the end? Right now, there was a new successor to his strategy. It really didn't know if Zhao Xihe dada should feel gratified or aggrieved.

Sui Yuan quickly headed out of the school building while discussing things with 5237. Right now, he didn't want to stay within close proximity with the supporting male lead. In any case, there was no mandatory attendance at this school so…he could just run home to escape him.

While Sui Yuan thought this, he suddenly heard a girl cautiously cough. Although he did not want to deal with any more issues at this time, his playboy instincts made him stop and gaze in the direction of the cough.

Afterwards, he saw the female lead standing by a cluster of flowers not far from him, appearing beautiful and lively.

He Nuannuan was probably fiercely scolded priorly. Her eyes were red and teary. Due toSui Yuan's gaze, her face quickly flushed red from shyness. She could only brighten up her delicate and pretty face and turn to face the flowers. It was quite like a scene of 'peach blossoms and a beauty's face reflecting each other's beauty'.

"He xuemei? What's up?" Although he was silently cursing at the supporting male lead and female lead coming to make trouble for him in quick succession, Sui Yuan still showed her an extremely charming smile and asked his question with much patience.

He Nuannuan pulled at the hem of her skirt, feeling rather uneasy. She lowered her head and walked towards Sui Yuan and stammered, "Xuezhang, sorry…what Yun…xuezhang…said earlier at the cafeteria…must be making things difficult for you, ba…."

"How could that be? I'm extremely happy to have a girl as cute as He xuemei like me, ne!" Sui Yuan's phoenix eyes brightened and his tone was coquettish. Inside however, he felt greatly pressured for having stolen the supporting male lead's scene.

He Nuannuan was happy inside and subconsciously raised her head to look at her male god xuezhang that she had had a secret crush on for so long. She didn't quite dare believe her ears. For Xuezhang to say such a thing, it couldn't be that he was accepting her confession?!

Unfortunately, she, who had just ascended to Heaven's gate, was smacked to the ground in the next second.

"However, I am very sorry, oh. I can't accept Xuemei's intentions," Sui Yuan shrugged, brushing his bangs out of the way.

He Nuannuan opened her mouth to speak. She reflexively wanted to ask 'why', but she swallowed that word down bitterly. Isn't it only logical for her to be rejected? Him calling her cute and saying that he was happy just now…those were probably just nice words to ensure that she wouldn't feel too sad….

He Nuannuan's nose felt painful. She pursed her lips and lowered her head, painstakingly trying not to cry. Although the good person card had been played against her, she still couldn't help but think that Hao Ning xuezhang was a good person from the bottom of her heart….

Sui Yuan didn't know that the female lead had returned that good person card to him. He looked at her, who had her head down and had slightly trembling shoulders, and thought that she was about to cry after being unable to endure this attack. He couldn't help but feel troubled and ended up speaking words of comfort, "The reason why I'm rejecting you is not because it's you that's no good, but because we are unsuitable for each other. You are an earnest girl. Once you've invested your feelings, not even nine bulls could pull it back. Meanwhile, I'm unstable. I'm always looking for something new so it's very difficult for me to maintain a steady relationship. You should have heard about my playboy reputation, ba? Who knows how many women I've been with? If you're with me, you'll only end up hurt."

"Please don't say that about yourself!" The female lead was about to be abused to tears from Sui Yuan's gentle analysis. She firmly sucked in a breath and raised her bloodshot eyes to gaze at Sui Yuan, tone resolute, "Xuezhang is the best! It's not your fault! All those women don't deserve you and they disappointed you! That's the only reason why you left them!"

Sui Yuan："…………………………"

——Young lady, what incredible logic! Sui Yuan was nothing but stupefied!

"I-I of course am undeserving of Xuezhang. That's why Xuezhang doesn't like me. That's only to be expected! It's because I'm not good enough!" He Nuannuan suddenly bowed to Sui Yuan. Afterwards, she stood up straight and valiantly met with the dumbstruck Sui Yuan's eyes, "Thus, I ask Xuezhang to not comfort me and belittle himself like this!"

Sui Yuan was agape for a long time. He then forced out, "…Eh, thank you?"

He Nuannuan saw her family's male god's endearingly silly expression and could not help her tears from turning into laughter. She clasped her hands in front of her chest and her whole being seemed lighter, "I will always like Xuezhang. I will cherish these feelings. However, Xuezhang does not need to reciprocate them. As long as I can see Xuezhang happy, I will be happy!"

Sui Yuan seemed to have been infected by the female lead's enthusiastic words. The corner of his lips slowly rose and formed an incomparably magnificent smile, "Thank you."

He had to say, after receiving two consecutive confessions, Sui Yuan's goodwill towards the supporting male lead had dropped to an all-time low, whereas his goodwill towards the female lead had reached an all-time high. Was this the difference between a leading role and a supporting role? A leading role was this positive—although her logic was a bit worrisome—while the supporting role was completely sick in the head!

Raising a hand to intimately rub He Nuannuan's head, although he felt deeply happy because of the female lead's reaction, Sui Yuan did not forget his dedication in pulling matters together, "Only, rather than fix your gaze on me, why don't you look around a bit more, ne? Perhaps you'll find that a more suitable boy has been by your side, watching and waiting for you, ne."

He Nuannuan thought it over for a moment, somewhat perplexed, but she still nodded, very obediently, "I understand, Xuezhang. I will look for my own happiness. I also hope that Xuezhang will find his, ah!"

"OK, I will," Sui Yuan waved. He watched the female lead's energetic, departing silhouette and exhaled lightly before turning around.

"How long have you been eavesdropping for?" Raising an eyebrow, Sui Yuan mocked Yun Yi who awkwardly came out from behind a tree, without any trace of politeness.

"…Not long," Yun Yi coughed, trying to cover up his embarrassment.

Sui Yuan chuckled, understanding it a bit, "So how is it? How do you feel seeing He xuemei confess to me? Do you feel pained…jealous?"

"How could that be!" Yun Yi jumped up, looking just like a kitten that had gotten its tail stepped on, appearing tough, "I'm absolutely not jealous! If I'm jealous, that's because I'm jealous of her! Why did you smile at her so seductively?!"

Sui Yuan："…………………………"

——Was this the rhythm of all three of them deciding to confess to him in one day by chance?

Not daring to let the male lead say it out loud, Sui Yuan covered his ears that were about to go deaf from Yun Yi's loud shouts, "OK, OK, OK. No need to be so loud. Didn't you hear that the louder one's voice is, the guiltier they are?"

Yun Yi went mute and angrily shut his lips before changing the subject, "Right, are you heading towards the school gates? Are you not going to attend class?"

"En, not attending," Sui Yuan nodded, yawning, "I'm a bit vexed so I was planning on going out for a stroll, find a bit of fun."

"That's perfect. I have something to discuss with you, ne! I'll go call Minghe over!" Yun Yi's actions were too impetuous. Before he had even finished speaking, he had started moving. Sui Yuan was frightened and he grabbed his arm, "Wait!"

Yun Yi turned around, gaze questioning.

Sui Yuan felt his head hurt, "I had a bit of a fight with Minghe just now. For the time being, it's better that I don't see him. Tell me first and then you can go ask for his opinion, ba."

"The two of you…" Yun Yi knitted his brows in worry.

"It's nothing major between Minghe and I. You don't have to worry about it. We have a good sense of propriety. What friends wouldn't have a fight or two, ne? It's very common," Sui Yuan shook his head, not wanting to explain any further.

Yun Yi had always been very trusting of his two friends. He knew that, compared to how straight forward his mind was, theirs were full of twists and turns. They had more thoughts than he did, so he straightforwardly did not ask too much. He then spoke about the matter he had in mind.

This matter had also been explained in the plot. In order to temper Yun Yi's capabilities, his family had handed over some money to him so that he could start up his own project. Sui Yuan replied in accordance to the plot and promised to give him a sum of money, and run the business together. After that, he leisurely left under Yun Yi's worshipping gaze.

Yun Yi contemplated over Sui Yuan's proposal. The more he thought about it, the more excited he became yet he was impatient to go all out. Just as he was planning to go find Yue Minghe to discuss it over, he looked up and saw his good friend standing not far from him, donning an emotionless face as he stared at him.

Yun Yi, who felt his hair stand on end from being pierced by his good friend's dark gaze: "…………………………"

Eve: I feel kind of sad for YMH. But also hope that he does blacken…I love blackened yandere MLs….

Wuxian: I'm a simple-minded person, and all I want is more nape kisses in this story.
