That night, Lu Yan and Ye Tong were snuggled under the covers watching a horror movie.

Ye Tong: You sure have a sense of romance—watching a ghost movie with a ghost.

Lu Yan chuckled softly: You should learn from them.

Ye Tong lazily rested his chin on Lu Yan’s arm: No need. I still get to eat even if I don’t scare people.

Lu Yan glanced down at him: Does it taste good?

Ye Tong subtly dodged his gaze: It’s… it’s alright.

Lu Yan: You’re hungry again.

Ye Tong felt utterly wronged: I’m not hungry!

Lu Yan, completely composed, smirked wickedly: I say you are.

Ye Tong: Like hell you do!

Lu Yan flipped over and pinned him down: That’s how I’ve set it—you get hungry every ten minutes.

Ye Tong: Like hell I do!

Lu Yan chuckled: You know how strong my spiritual power is.

Ye Tong: Yeah, I know.

Lu Yan: Want me to send you off? The Pure Land is wonderful.

Ye Tong: No way! If it’s so good, why don’t you go?

Lu Yan: Well…

Ye Tong: Fine, fine! I get hungry every ten minutes. Every ten minutes.

With nothing better to do, Lu Yan stayed home and taught Ye Tong how to play video games.

Ye Tong was excited, controlling his in-game character with his mind—endlessly feeding the enemy team, expertly sabotaging his teammates.

Ye Tong: Oops, I died again.

Lu Yan lit a cigarette and commented coolly: Your hands are useless.

Ye Tong protested: I’m not even using my hands. I’m using my mind!

Lu Yan: Then your mind is useless too.

Ye Tong pounced on him and started hitting him: You’re the useless one! You’re useless everywhere!

Lu Yan held the cigarette in his mouth, unfazed: Win a match if you’ve got the skills.

Ye Tong glared at him, fuming, then suddenly seemed to recall something. He dove straight into the computer. Moments later, the enemy players disconnected.

Lu Yan: …Damn it, you cheated.

Ye Tong climbed out of the computer, grinning smugly: So? Am I awesome or what?

Lu Yan: You are.

Ye Tong froze for a second, then lunged at him again: You damn pervert!
