       Shu Rong was a person who cared about her reputation very much. She had always been unwilling to let her relatives and friends see her disputes with her husband and son. No matter what, she hoped that in the eyes of others, she was a woman with a rich life and a happy family.

       The Ning family also treated her very well. Ning Zhanghong was the eldest in the family, and his mother had died young, so all the younger siblings, children and nephews in the family respected her, and even old man Ning had always been very gentle with her.

       It was the first time that Shu Rong had acted so emotionally in front of the Ning family because she felt that Ning Junyan was gradually getting out of her control. She was a little helpless, and she needed more people to stand by her side and help her bring her son back.

       Ning Junyan didn’t understand what else Shu Rong wanted to hear from him, and he felt that what he said was clear enough. So he frowned lightly and asked Shu Rong, “What else do you want me to say?”

       Shu Rong looked at her grown-up son and asked, “Is whatever Mom says today no use? Must you be with him?”

       Ning Junyan patiently answered her, “It seems so.”

       Shu Rong said, “Let me ask you, have you ever thought about the consequences if you are with a man?”

       Ning Junyan, who had been holding Chen Yuncheng’s hand without letting go, asked, “What consequences are you referring to?”

       Shu Rong said, “Of course I’m talking about your job, your career!”

       Ning Junyan thought about it seriously, “I don’t think it will make a difference. The surgery I can do is still the only one I can do. Will it change anything?”

       Seeing Shu Rong’s distraught look, Ning Zhangyu couldn’t help but stand up and gently held Shu Rong’s arm, and said to Ning Junyan, “Junyan, many unpleasant words might spread through the hospital, and it’s inevitable that it will affect you then.”

       Ning Junyan looked at her, “Anything said by people who don’t matter will not affect me.” After that, he said to Shu Rong with a bit of annoyance, “What you’re talking about isn’t actually about how it’ll affect me; it’s just how it’ll affect you. Those aren’t things I would care about.”

       Shu Rong asked him sternly, “So you don’t care about Mom at all?”

       Ning Junyan stared at her and said, “If you feel that it has a great impact on your life, I can introduce you to a psychologist.”

       “Junyan!” Ning Zhanghong said, his voice still a little sickly hoarse, “You’re going overboard talking to Mom like that.”

       Chen Yuncheng saw that Shu Rong’s eyes were red and gently pulled Ning Junyan’s hand.

       Ning Junyan turned to look at Chen Yuncheng, reached into his own pocket, took out the car key and stuffed it into Chen Yuncheng’s hand as he said, “If you don’t want to stay here, go wait for me in the car, I’ll be there soon.”

       Chen Yuncheng looked down at the car keys and said, “I’ll wait for you.”

       The expression on Ning Junyan’s face did not change, but he squeezed Chen Yuncheng firmly, and Chen Yuncheng felt that he was a little happy.

       Shu Rong tried her best to control her emotions, but her voice still trembled slightly as she asked Ning Junyan, “What if I want you to choose between him and your family today?”

       Ning Junyan asked her, “Does the family mean you or everyone in the family today?”

       Shu Rong said in a cold voice, “Everyone in the family.”

       Ning Junyan didn’t answer her question immediately but turned to look at Grandpa.

       Grandpa Ning kept stroking his purple clay pot, and then he said, “Daughter-in-law, there’s no need.”

       Shu Rong turned to look at him, “Dad! You must stand by my side at this time, and you can’t just let him do whatever he wants!”

       Grandpa Ning said slowly, “This is not the way to solve the problem.”

       Ning Zhangyu also persuaded Shu Rong, “Sister-in-law, you are only pushing Junyan out like this. What’s the point?”

       Shu Rong’s attitude was unyielding. As she saw that neither the old man nor Ning Zhangyu supported her, she turned around and asked Ning Zhanghong, “What do you say?”

       Ning Zhanghong sighed and said to Ning Junyan, “Don’t be stubborn.”

       Ning Junyan still looked calm as he said, “I think Mom’s question is rather capricious, and I won’t make a choice. It was supposed to be different feelings that didn’t contradict each other, just like no child will ask the mother to choose between the father and themselves.” He looked at Shu Rong, “Just like you and Dad become a family in the long run, I too, will have my own family in the future. I will return to visit you, and we will still be family, but I can only live with the person I love for the rest of my life.”

       “What lifetime!” Shu Rong said angrily, “You won’t even last a lifetime!”

       Chen Yuncheng originally didn’t want to talk, but at this moment, he couldn’t help but say, “We can.”

       Shu Rong looked at him.

       Chen Yuncheng persisted under her extremely unfriendly gaze, “Auntie, it doesn’t matter whether you think highly of me or not. As long as Ning Junyan doesn’t let go, I will live with him.”

       Just as Shu Rong was about to speak, the mobile phone in her bag on the sofa rang suddenly. She looked at Chen Yuncheng with red eyes, turned around to find the mobile phone, hung it up and put it on the table.

       But just after she hung up the phone, her cell phone rang again, ringing more sharply than before.

       Ning Zhangyu intentionally asked her to adjust her mood and said, “Sister-in-law, answer the phone first.”

       Shu Rong glanced at the caller ID, took a deep breath and connected the phone, and her voice sounded much calmer when she spoke, “Hello?”

       It was not clear what the person on the other side was saying. He sounded very impatient and spoke quickly. He spoke for nearly half a minute before stopping.

       Shu Rong’s face turned paler than it had just been, and she said, “Are you sure?”

       Ning Zhanghong sat on the sofa and looked up at her, “What’s wrong?”

       Shu Rong didn’t answer, and she still concentrated on listening to the person on the phone. After another few tens of seconds, she said, “I’m coming over now.” Then she hung up the phone.

       “Sister-in-law?” Ning Zhangyu called her softly.

       Shu Rong held the phone tightly in her hand, her expression was briefly at a loss, and then she turned around and picked up her bag. She no longer looked at Ning Junyan and Chen Yuncheng but said to Grandpa Ning, “Dad, I have something to do first.”

       Ning Zhanghong asked, “What’s the rush?”

       Shu Rong said to him, “The matter of opening a new hospital, I’ll tell you about it when I return later.”

       Ning Zhangyu asked her, “How are you going to get there? Do you want Huang Jin to give you a lift?”

       “No need.” Shu Rong was already stepping on her high heels and walking outside, “I’ll take a taxi by myself.” She walked in a hurry, and soon her figure disappeared outside the door.

       Chen Yuncheng looked at Ning Junyan.

       Ning Junyan said, “Let’s go.”

       No one stopped them this time, but when Ning Junyan was about to leave the house with Chen Yuncheng’s hand in his, Ning Zhangyu asked him, “Junyan, will you be back tomorrow?”

       Ning Junyan stopped, turned around and said, “Of course I will come back.”

       Ning Zhangyu nodded, and she said, “You can take your time talking to your mother, don’t make the relationship so strained.”

       Ning Junyan just said, “I know.”

       When they came out of the house and walked towards the parking space, Ning Junyan kept holding onto Chen Yuncheng’s hand. Chen Yuncheng felt that his walking posture was very brisk and seemed to be a little excited instead of unhappy.

       Chen Yuncheng didn’t quite understand what he was excited about.

       There were no street lights near the parking space, and they walked to the Land Rover. Ning Junyan suddenly pressed Chen Yuncheng against the car door, pinched his chin and kissed him forcefully.

       Chen Yuncheng was baffled being kissed by Ning Junyan in the dim light of the neighbourhood, feeling his intense emotions until after a while. Chen Yuncheng felt that Ning Junyan had no intention of stopping, so he raised his hand and pushed him away.

       “What’s wrong?” Chen Yuncheng’s lips were moist and red, panting slightly.

       Ning Junyan raised his hand to touch his face, and the two of them got closer. Chen Yuncheng saw the smile in Ning Junyan’s eyes.

       Chen Yuncheng felt strange, “What are you happy about?”

       Ning Junyan said, “You just said you wanted to stay with me for the rest of your life.”

       These words were originally said by Chen Yuncheng to Shu Rong, but now that Ning Junyan mentioned them in a serious manner, he suddenly felt embarrassed. He turned away and tried to change the subject, “I think you can be a little more tactful when talking to your mother and communicate more one time.”

       “She doesn’t really care that much,” Ning Junyan said.

       Chen Yuncheng was stunned and asked, “Why do you think so?”

       Ning Junyan said, “She has many things that she cares about more, like her business.”

       Chen Yuncheng thought of the figure of Shu Rong, who left in a hurry after receiving the call just now, and he suddenly felt sorry for Ning Junyan. He then asked him, “Was she like this when you were young?”

       Ning Junyan looked at him, “What?”

       Chen Yuncheng thought for a while and tried to describe how he felt, “Having high demands of you, but not really caring enough.”

       Ning Junyan said, “She is very busy every day, busy with business and making money outside, but she checks my homework and assignments regularly and arranges tutorial classes for me every day. Actually, there is very little communication between us.” When he said this, Ning Junyan looked at Chen Yuncheng and did not continue.

       Chen Yuncheng couldn’t bear his too-focused gaze, and asked, “What’s wrong?”

       Ning Junyan raised his arms and hugged him tightly, “Wife, you can’t do this to me.”

       Chen Yuncheng panicked, “What? What did I do to you?”

       Ning Junyan looked like he was very aggrieved, “You can’t be too busy with your business and leave me alone.”

       Chen Yuncheng had no choice but to hug him too, “No, I won’t leave you alone.”

       Ning Junyan kissed him under his ear and said, “So it’s actually useless to communicate with my mother, the best way is to tell her with facts that I’m doing well and I’m happy.”

       Chen Yuncheng smiled faintly and gently patted Ning Junyan’s back.

Notes:
Don’t some of us have that kind of mother that you know whatever you say to her, she just won’t understand, and the best way to “talk” to them is to show that your way is better?

       When the old man Ning celebrated his birthday, it was customary for all the younger members of the family to go back to celebrate his birthday. This year, Ning Zhanghong had just been discharged from the hospital after a serious illness, so tomorrow’s meal would be even more formal and meaningful.

       However, Ning Junyan didn’t plan to take him back on his grandpa’s birthday but instead went back a day earlier for dinner. He didn’t care what his family would think of his relationship with them, but he was worried that Chen Yuncheng would care.

       Chen Yuncheng was indeed conflicted and uneasy. On one hand, he wanted to meet Ning Junyan’s grandfather; on the other hand, he felt that no matter how good a person Ning Junyan’s grandfather was and how much he loved Ning Junyan when he saw that Ning Junyan’s lover was a man, he would definitely still be disappointed. Obviously, he was waiting with hope for his grandson to bring home a girlfriend, but it turned out to be a boyfriend, so the old man must be uncomfortable in his heart.

       But he didn’t refuse Ning Junyan, he felt that this matter must be important to Ning Junyan, and at least he didn’t want to disappoint Ning Junyan.

       Although Chen Yuncheng didn’t wear a suit and tie that day, he was dressed more formally than usual.

       Ning Junyan drove to the trade market to pick him up and said to him after he got into the car, “Don’t be nervous.”

       Chen Yuncheng nodded but did not speak.

       When they drove out of the market, they met a white BMW at the gate that was about to enter.

       This car was a second-hand BMW bought by Chen Yuncheng with a mortgage. It was usually placed in the parking space outside the store. He didn’t usually drive it very much and usually only drove it when he went out to discuss business. The car was driven out by Guan Anlin this afternoon and had only returned from outside now.

       When the car passed by each other, Chen Yuncheng pressed the window and asked Guan Anlin, “Where did you go?”

       Guan Anlin waved his hand and did not answer but asked Chen Yuncheng, “Aren’t you coming back tonight?”

       Ning Junyan replied for Chen Yuncheng, “Not coming back.”

       Guan Anlin showed a dissatisfied expression, pressed the window and drove the car into the market.

       Chen Yuncheng cursed in a low voice, “Brat.” And he didn’t say anything more.

       When they arrived at the villa complex where his grandfather lived in the city, Ning Junyan parked the car in the roadside parking lot in the community, opened the door and got off, waiting for Chen Yuncheng to come down and walk there with him.

       Chen Yuncheng spoke very little and seemed to be concentrating on walking.

       Ning Junyan walked all the way to the door of the villa; before pushing the door to go in, he suddenly held Chen Yuncheng’s hand, and without giving him time to react, he just dragged him inside together.

       Grandpa Ning was waiting for guests while watching TV news in the living room, when he heard the voice, he raised his head and looked towards them.

       “Grandpa,” Ning Junyan said after entering the door, “I brought someone back.”

       Grandpa Ning first showed a smile on his face and said, “You’re back.” Then he looked at Chen Yuncheng for a while and became puzzled again. He asked Ning Junyan, “Is this a girl?” He didn’t quite understand, he knew that some girls would be dressed up like a boy, but the young man in front of him didn’t look like a girl.

       Ning Junyan said, “No.”

       Chen Yuncheng was very nervous and said, “Grandpa, I am Chen Yuncheng.”

       “Oh—” Grandpa Ning nodded and trailed off, but he still didn’t understand, so he could only greet him, “Come in and sit down.”

       Chen Yuncheng wanted Ning Junyan to let go of his hand a little bit, but Ning Junyan made it worse, he slipped fingers between Chen Yuncheng’s fingers to hold him tighter, led him to the sofa, and sat down side by side.

       Grandpa Ning kept looking at the two of them, and when they sat down, he asked Ning Junyan, “Didn’t you say you were bringing your girlfriend back?”

       Ning Junyan said, “I never said that, I said I would bring my lover back.”

       Grandpa Ning seemed to be taken aback for a moment. He looked Chen Yuncheng up and down, and after a while, he looked at Ning Junyan with a question.

       Ning Junyan nodded, “This is Yuncheng, the person I told you about.”

       The old man was actually very surprised, but he had excellent self-control. He nodded at first and thought for a while on his own with a puzzled expression. Then he seemed to understand and nodded again, “I see.”

       At this time, Chen Yuncheng hurriedly gave the present to Grandpa Ning; it was a pot of beautifully packaged rice wine, which was not cheap either.

       Grandpa Ning accepted it with a smile, expressed his thanks repeatedly, and then asked the housekeeper if it was time to start dinner and told them to go to the dining room for dinner.

       During the course of the meal, Grandpa Ning kept chatting with Chen Yuncheng, with a very gentle attitude,  like a casual conversation between an amiable elder and a junior, without a word of difficulty.

       Chen Yuncheng gradually relaxed and chatted a lot with the old man as they ate.

       Later, while Chen Yuncheng got up to go to the bathroom, Ning Junyan asked his grandfather, “Do you like him?”

       Grandpa shook his head and sighed, “It’s not a matter of liking him or not, you have to think about it anyway.”

       Ning Junyan picked up the napkin and wiped his mouth lightly, and said, “I’ve thought about it for a long time.”

       After dinner, they accompanied Grandpa Ning back to the living room to sit down and drink tea.

       After chatting for more than ten minutes, footsteps came from outside the house, and then someone opened the door and came in, calling out, “Dad.”

       The people in the living room turned their heads to look at the same time and saw that the person who opened the door was Shu Rong, and the person who followed Shu Rong was Ning Zhanghong who was supported by Ning Zhangyu.

       The scene instantly became awkward.

       Chen Yuncheng slowly stood up, and as he did so, Ning Junyan took his hand and stood up with him.

       When Shu Rong saw Chen Yuncheng sitting in the living room, Shu Rong’s face changed undisguisedly, and the little smile that had been on her face vanished into thin air.

       The two siblings, Ning Zhanghong and Ning Zhangyu who were following Shu Rong, both showed surprised expressions and stood at the door, forgetting that they should come in.

       It was still Grandpa Ning who said, “Why are you standing in a daze? Come in and sit down when you come back.”

       Shu Rong looked at Chen Yuncheng but did not respond.

       Ning Zhangyu said at this time, “Big brother and sister-in-law, go in and sit down first.”

       Shu Rong moved her body and walked towards the sofa in the living room.

       The family sat down by the sofa in the living room in an awkward atmosphere. Grandpa Ning ordered the housekeeper to bring a cup to pour tea, and all were quiet for a time without speaking.

       Originally, it was the old man’s birthday tomorrow, and the children didn’t plan to come here today, but because Ning Zhanghong was sick and had just been discharged from the hospital, a distant relative in another place called and said that he would come to celebrate the old man Ning’s birthday and visit Ning Zhanghong at the same time, so Ning Zhanghong and his siblings came over tonight came over, intending to discuss with the old man to book two tables at the restaurant tomorrow instead of preparing at home.

       Ning Zhangyu thought Ning Zhanghong was in poor health just after being discharged from the hospital, so she asked her husband to drive to pick up her elder brother and his wife.

       Her husband, whose name is Huang Jin, parked the car outside the villa when they arrived and told them to get out first. He went to find a parking space himself and came over two minutes late.

       Ning Zhangyu had met Chen Yuncheng in the hospital before. Although Shu Rong didn’t tell her who this young man was, Ning Zhangyu felt that there was some unusual ambiguity between Ning Junyan and him. When she saw the two of them holding hands again just now, she immediately guessed in her heart.

       But Huang Jin came in from the outside, but he didn’t know what was going on. He only saw Ning Junyan sitting on the sofa and a young man next to him, and greeted him, “Junyan is here too? Is this your friend?”

       Huang Jin just asked casually, Ning Junyan looked up at him and said, “This is my lover, I brought him here to see grandpa.”

       Chen Yuncheng froze for a moment and turned his head towards him.

       Ning Junyan’s attitude was very calm, and he held Chen Yuncheng’s hand again.

       Huang Jin didn’t react for a while and said, “What?”

       Ning Zhangyu noticed that Shu Rong’s face suddenly turned pale, and she quickly said to her husband: “You sit down first. So much nonsense.”

       Huang Jin said: “No, what did Junyan say just now?” He suspected that he had heard it wrong.

       Ning Junyan suddenly gave a very soft laugh and said, “Then let me introduce you formally. This is my lover, Chen Yuncheng.”

       Shu Rong stood up from the sofa all of a sudden and said sharply to Ning Junyan, “I think you are crazy!”

       Ning Zhangyu quickly stretched out his hand to pull her, “Sister-in-law, there are better words to be said.” After she said that, she quickly winked at Huang Jin again.

       Huang Jin came to his senses and hurriedly persuaded, “Sister-in-law, take it easy. There may be some misunderstanding.”

       Ning Zhanghong lowered his head and said nothing, so no one could see exactly what expression he was wearing.

       Ning Junyan looked up at Shu Rong and said, “Then just think I’m crazy. I didn’t ask anyone’s permission, I just told the elders.”

       Ning Zhangyu couldn’t help but say, “Junyan, don’t do this. Do you want to piss your mother off?”

       Ning Junyan shook his head, “I’m not angry with her. She’s the one who’s angry with herself. I’m thirty years old, I’m perfectly capable of arranging my own life, and I’m living a good life. I don’t understand why she’s angry.”

       Ning Zhanghong finally spoke, and he said in a deep voice, “Your mother is also doing it for your own good.”

       Ning Junyan frowned, “So I don’t know if I’m alright, yet she knows?”

       Chen Yuncheng sat next to him and reached out to gently tug at Ning Junyan’s sleeve.

       Ning Junyan turned to look at him, leaned close to his ear and whispered, “Do you want to go back? Then let’s go.”

       After he said this, Ning Junyan stood up, holding Chen Yuncheng’s hand, and said to grandpa, “Grandpa, Yuncheng and I are going back first, and we will come to see you some other day.”

       Grandpa Ning was about to nod when Shu Rong roared, “Don’t leave! No one is leaving until we get this straight today!”

       When Ning Junyan came to pick up Chen Yuncheng, he saw Chen Yuncheng squatting in front of the store feeding stray cats with ham.

       There were several stray cats in the trade market, and Chen Yuncheng would feed them whenever he was free. The stray cats recognised him, and they would come close to him when they saw him, and act coquettishly.

       When Ning Junyan’s car approached, the two cats in front of Chen Yuncheng ran away at once and hid in the distance. When they saw that there was no threat, the cats rushed back to continue eating the ham sausage on the ground. Ning Junyan opened the door and got out of the car, and walked to Chen Yuncheng’s side.

       Chen Yuncheng crouched down and didn’t get up, only tilting his head to look at Ning Junyan.

       “Shall we go?” He asked Chen Yuncheng.

       Chen Yuncheng smiled and said, “Wait for me for two minutes.” He patiently continued to feed the cat.

       Ning Junyan squatted down beside him and looked at the two stray cats in front of him.

       Chen Yuncheng turned to look at the smooth lines of his side face and asked, “Do you want to feed them?”

       “No,” Ning Junyan refused him mercilessly.

       Chen Yuncheng surprisingly found him cute even with his indifferent tone. He looked at Ning Junyan with a smile, and said, “Forget it then.”

       After feeding the cat, Chen Yuncheng went into the shop to greet Guan Anlin and then got into the car with Ning Junyan. He sat on the passenger seat, fastened his seat belt and asked, “Is your dad okay?”

       Ning Junyan started the car and answered him at the same time, “He’s recovering well.”

       At first, Chen Yuncheng didn’t know how serious acute aortic dissection was. Later, when he came back to the trade market and chatted with the people in the store next door, he heard that this disease was very dangerous. Even if the operation was successful, it might not necessarily save his life, so he began to feel scared.

       Of course, fearing that something might happen to Ning Zhanghong was one thing, but he was also afraid that if Ning Zhanghong really died on Ning Junyan’s operating table, it would have a significant impact on Ning Junyan’s psyche. So he couldn’t help but ask Ning Zhanghong how he was recovering, hoping that Ning Zhanghong could recover and be discharged from the hospital as soon as possible.

       After knowing that Ning Zhanghong was doing well, Chen Yuncheng asked again, “What about your mother? Is she still angry?”

       Ning Junyan replied, “Yes, she won’t even talk to me when she saw me today.”

       “I’m sorry,” Chen Yuncheng apologised earnestly.

       Ning Junyan glanced at him, “None of it was your fault.”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “It was Guan Anlin who was rude to her that made her angry.”

       Ning Junyan said, “Well, that’s why none of it was your fault.”

       “Is she still doing business with Yu Jie?”

       “She said she wasn’t.”

       Chen Yuncheng nodded, “That’s good.”

       In the evening, Ning Junyan received a call from the hospital and temporarily participated in a long-distance video consultation. He went to the study room and left Chen Yuncheng alone in the bedroom.

       Chen Yuncheng lay on the bed and played some games without paying much attention. After a while, he felt bored and put the phone aside, sat cross-legged on the bedside and pulled the iron chain with his hands.

       A leather collar hangs from the end of the chain and hung against the wall over the pillow.

       Chen Yuncheng started to untie the collar from the iron chain, looked at it in his hand, got up and walked to the door to look outside. He heard Ning Junyan’s voice from the study, and it was estimated that the video over there would not be over for a while. So he slipped the collar around his neck, fumbled for the clasp, and went into the bathroom to look in the mirror.

       The short-haired young man in the mirror had a straight nose, soft eyebrows, and a black leather collar around his neck. For some reason, he looked particularly sexy. Chen Yuncheng was not very interested in Ning Junyan’s messy sexual fetishes, but sometimes he thought it was a good spice in bed.

       After all, when Ning Junyan was in high spirits, Chen Yuncheng would be aroused by him, and the feeling would be particularly strong.

       He looked around in the mirror and after a while returned to the bed to take off the collar and hung it back on the chain.

       The matter on Ning Junyan’s side was not over yet, and Chen Yuncheng didn’t want to disturb him, so he lay down on the bed and played games for a while. Chen Yuncheng then felt tired and fell asleep, leaving a lamp on beside the bed for Ning Junyan.

       However, this sleep did not last long. Chen Yuncheng was awakened by Ning Junyan’s kiss.

       He opened his eyes, Ning Junyan was kneeling on one leg by the bed, and his fingers unbuttoned his shirt, revealing a large part of his firm chest. When he saw that Chen Yuncheng woke up, Ning Junyan bent down and continued to kiss him while unbuttoning, and after a while, he threw the shirt he had taken off to the side.

       Chen Yuncheng raised his hand and hugged Ning Junyan’s neck. After being kissed by him for a while, his cheeks and neck felt itchy, so he avoided it with a smile and reached out to touch the phone, “What time is it?”

       Ning Junyan grabbed his hand and fixed it above his head. Instead of answering the question of what time is it, he said, “Did you play with my collar?”

       Chen Yuncheng was stunned momentarily, then looked up at the collar hanging on the bed, “How do you know?”

       Ning Junyan stroked his hair and said in a low and slow voice, “There is surveillance in the room.”

       Chen Yuncheng felt that he was suddenly awake, subconsciously raised his head to look for the surveillance in the room, and said, “Are you crazy? What kind of surveillance is installed in your own room?”

       Ning Junyan watched him panic momentarily, clasped the buckle of the iron chain with one hand and took off the collar. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but it disappeared quickly, “The buckle you put on is different from where it was before.”

       Chen Yuncheng looked at his expression and knew that Ning Junyan was teasing him, so he let out a slight sigh of relief.

       But immediately afterwards, Ning Junyan put the collar on Chen Yuncheng’s neck, “Just keep wearing it if you like it.”

       “Of course not!” Chen Yuncheng twisted his neck and said, “People will definitely think I’m crazy.”

       Ning Junyan pressed Chen Yuncheng’s hand with his left hand, hooked up the collar with the fingers of his right hand, inserted his fingertips into the narrow gap between Chen Yuncheng’s neck and the collar, rubbed it with his fingertips, and said, “You can engrave your name here, do you want it inside or outside? If you engrave it on the outside, everyone will know that you are mine.”

       Chen Yuncheng looked at him without saying a word, with a slight smile in his eyes.

       Ning Junyan pulled the collar, “Speak.”

       Chen Yuncheng’s head was pulled up, then fell on the pillow again. He couldn’t help but say, “It hurts!”

       Ning Junyan said coldly, “Weak.”

       Chen Yuncheng struggled to free his hands from Ning Junyan’s and then stretched out two hands towards him.

       This was a gesture of asking for a kiss. Ning Junyan quickly bent down and kissed him. After a long kiss, Ning Junyan held him on his lap, kissed his Adam’s apple through the collar, and said, ” Come on your knees.”

       Chen Yuncheng didn’t reply, and he felt a little awkward and hesitant.

       Ning Junyan said, “You promised me, but you deceived me again.” Those words were obviously coquettish words, but his tone was low and serious.

       Chen Yuncheng remembered what he said in his office that day about trying it out with him, tried to convince himself to make up his mind, and warned him, “Don’t mess around.”

       Ning Junyan looked up at him, “I love you so much, I can’t bear it.”

       Chen Yuncheng blushed, first hugged him and kissed him forcefully, then turned around and knelt down on the bed reluctantly.

       For a moment, Chen Yuncheng thought he really loved Ning Junyan so much that he couldn’t refuse any messy request, and even if he refused, he still couldn’t help but agree after a long time passed. He later thought that his bottom line was something that was constantly being broken, and in the end, he would find that there was actually no bottom limit and no upper limit.

       It was early in the morning when it ended. Chen Yuncheng couldn’t bear it physically and refused to keep up with Ning Junyan. Ning Junyan’s energy was bottomless. As long as Chen Yuncheng didn’t refuse, he wouldn’t stop easily.

       Chen Yuncheng didn’t even have the strength to get up to take a bath and was panting slightly while being held in Ning Junyan’s arms, feeling the leather collar sticking to his skin with sweat.

       He tried to untie it with his fingers but gave up after trying several times without success.

       Ning Junyan’s breathing calmed down quickly, and his palms were pressed against Chen Yuncheng’s lower abdomen, hugging him and leaning against his body.

       “It’s my grandfather’s birthday next month. Want to come with me to meet him?” Ning Junyan asked in Chen Yuncheng’s ear.

       Chen Yuncheng subconsciously refused, “No, I can’t.” He had the psychological trauma of meeting Ning Junyan’s family.

       Ning Junyan said, “My grandfather is different. He wants to meet you.”

       Ever since Ning Junyan mentioned that there was someone with his family last time, his grandfather called Ning Junyan several times and asked him to bring his girlfriend back for dinner.

       Chen Yuncheng actually had no hope that any of Ning Junyan’s family members would accept him. Still, he didn’t want to disappoint Ning Junyan, so he hesitated and said, “Your family will all be back on your grandpa’s birthday, and I’m afraid of making a scene then.”

       “No, we’ll go back alone. We don’t need to see anyone else.” No one else mattered in his eyes.

       Chen Yuncheng looked at him, “Is that okay?”

       Ning Junyan said, “Of course.”

       Chen Yuncheng still hesitated, but Ning Junyan did not urge him to make a decision.

       The skin around his neck, where the collar was attached, began to itch, and once again, Chen Yuncheng reached out to untie it. This time Ning Junyan helped him and quickly took off the collar.

       Chen Yuncheng’s neck was a little red from the restraint, but it was not serious.

       Ning Junyan lowered his head to gently kiss the skin around Chen Yuncheng’s Adam’s apple.

       Chen Yuncheng suddenly remembered something and asked Ning Junyan half-jokingly, “You don’t really install surveillance cameras in the room, do you?”

       Ning Junyan’s kissing stopped suddenly. He propped up his upper body on his elbows and looked down at him.

       Chen Yuncheng observed his expression and saw nothing unusual.

       Afterwards, Ning Junyan turned his head to look at the top of the closet. Chen Yuncheng followed his gaze and saw nothing, not even an ornament that could accommodate a pinhole camera.

       Ning Jun slowly turned his gaze back, inserted the fingers of his right hand into the middle of Chen Yuncheng’s hair, supported it against Chen Yuncheng’s ear, and said two words in a hoarse voice, “I don’t.”

       Yu Jie let go of his hand, and half of his cheeks gradually became red and swollen visible to the naked eye. He pressed his tongue against it, but he didn’t get angry, shook his head at Ning Junyan and then said to Guan Anlin, “Xiao Guan, we might have a misunderstanding.”

       But Shu Rong said, “What misunderstanding? Why can’t we talk about it properly? How can you hit someone? Are you a barbarian?”

       Guan Anlin glanced at her impatiently, “None of your business, you damn old woman!”

       Chen Yuncheng pulled Guan Anlin, looked at Shu Rong, and when she saw her, her face turned livid.

       Shu Rong probably hadn’t had much contact with people like Guan Anlin, her chest rose and fell violently, and she asked Ning Junyan, “Is this the friend you made?”

       Ning Junyan said indifferently, “He’s not my friend.”

       Shu Rong looked at Guan Anlin with an angry face and then turned to Chen Yuncheng.

       Chen Yuncheng was about to say something, but Guan Anlin came to his senses first. He remembered that this woman was Ning Junyan’s mother, which was Chen Yuncheng’s evil mother-in-law, so he had to be a little more polite, so he changed his tone and said, “Auntie, it’s none of your business in the first place, who is he to you? Are you his accomplice in drug manufacturing and trafficking?”

       Shu Rong didn’t speak, but her complexion became uglier. For a while, she didn’t know whether she should respond to the title “Auntie” or to the “drug manufacturing and trafficking” thing.

       Yu Jie frowned, his eyes swept across the faces of Shu Rong and Ning Junyan—mother and son as if he had made a choice, and said to Guan Anlin, “Xiao Guan, we will explain the misunderstanding between us slowly.” Then he said to Shu Rong “I originally came to visit President Ning today, but it’s inconvenient now, please help me wish him a speedy recovery, and I’ll come back another day when I’m free.” He picked up the flowers on the ground and handed them to Shu Rong.

       Shu Rong hesitated, reached out to take it, and only nodded.

       Yu Jie was still able to smile at Ning Junyan at this time, turned around and walked away steadily.

       Shu Rong gave Guan Anlin and Chen Yuncheng a sharp look, turned around and opened the door of the ward, walked in, and then closed the door heavily from the inside.

       Chen Yuncheng looked at Ning Junyan, and it happened that Ning Junyan was also looking at him.

       Ning Junyan said, “I’ll see you off.”

       Chen Yuncheng pulled Guan Anlin a step slower, not wanting to run into Yu Jie again, Guan Anlin felt annoyed and cursed in a low voice.

       “There’s nothing you can do about him now,” Chen Yuncheng said, “If you really hit him hard, won’t you be arrested and put back in jail?”

       Guan Anlin said indignantly, “So just drop it?”

       Chen Yuncheng did not speak.

       When Guan Anlin was first arrested by the police, Chen Yuncheng did not give up. He wanted to find out about Yu Jie who was the person behind Guan Anlin. He tried to find clues by himself, asked Zhang Wenyong for help, and even asked the police, but all to no avail. Now that Guan Anlin had been released from prison for two years, it was naturally more difficult to arrest Yu Jie.

       Guan Anlin also knew in his heart that after he came out, that’s why he didn’t try to settle accounts with Yu Jie. If he hadn’t met Yu Jie by chance today, this matter might not be resolved.

       As he said, he was stupid at the beginning, and he paid the price for his stupidity.

       Walking all the way to the elevator, Chen Yuncheng said to Ning Junyan, “Your mother is angry.”

       Ning Junyan let out an “En” and didn’t seem to care much. He stopped and said, “I won’t accompany you downstairs.”

       Chen Yuncheng nodded, “U’m going to work.”

       Ning Junyan suddenly reached out, hooked the back of his neck and lowered his head to kiss him on the lips, then quickly left and said, “I’ll pick you up tomorrow afternoon.”

       Chen Yuncheng smiled and nodded.

       Guan Anlin got angry for a moment and felt that Ning Junyan had insulted Chen Yuncheng by kissing Chen Yuncheng in front of him, but soon he saw Chen Yuncheng smiling and felt that his anger was unreasonable. So he suppressed it and only urged Chen Yuncheng to say goodbye, “Let’s go.”

       Ning Junyan stood where he was, watched them enter the elevator, and waited for the elevator door to close before turning around and leaving.

       He went back to the single ward where Ning Zhanghong stayed, and when he opened the door to enter, he saw Shu Rong sitting on the chair beside the bed with anger still on his face.

       When she heard the sound of the door opening, Shu Rong turned her head to look at Ning Junyan and quickly turned back without saying anything.

       Ning Zhanghong lay on the hospital bed with a tired face and simply closed his eyes.

       Ning Junyan asked Shu Rong, “Are you having dinner at the hospital?”

       Shu Rong stood up immediately, and she asked Ning Junyan, “Look who are those people?”

       Ning Junyan said, “Are you talking about Boss Yu?”

       Shu Rong choked for a moment and quickly said, “That person just now wasn’t your friend, it was Chen Yuncheng’s friend, right?”

       Ning Junyan did not answer her question,

       Shu Rong took two steps forward. Since Ning Zhanghong’s emergency operation that day until now, she has had no time to talk to Ning Junyan alone. At this moment, she finally couldn’t bear it anymore and asked, “What exactly is your relationship with that Chen Yuncheng?”

       Ning Junyan walked to the window, arranged a few bouquets on the window sill, and asked casually, “What do you think?”

       “What do I think?” Shu Rong sounded anxious, “I think you guys aren’t normal!”

       Ning Junyan turned his head and saw that under Ning Zhang Hong’s closed eyelids, his eyes rolled gently but did not open. He looked at Shu Rong again, “I think it’s quite normal, falling in love, sleeping together, getting married. What else do you want to know?”

       Shu Rong’s face turned red in an instant,  she froze in place for two seconds before turning around to grab Ning Zhanghong’s arm, “Listen to what your son is saying?”

       Ning Junyan frowned, “Don’t touch him. He shouldn’t be grabbed like that.”

       But Ning Zhanghong finally opened his eyes and said weakly, “Don’t quarrel. Speak up if you have something to say.”

       Shu Rong quickly gave up on Ning Zhanghong. She walked up to Ning Junyan, grabbed Ning Junyan’s arm, and said to him angrily, “Have you gone mad? Even if you don’t care that he’s a punk with no parents, he’s a man; why are you in love with a man? I worked so hard to raise you and provide you with the best conditions for your education, not so you can fall in love with a man and get married!”

       Ning Junyan looked down at Shu Rong that was grabbing his hand. She grabbed him so hard that her fingernails turned white. Ning Junyan asked her in a calm tone, “And what are you in it for? What did you want to get from raising me after all your hard work?”

       Shu Rong said, “I want you to be good, I want you to be talented, I want you to marry a woman of comparable condition, have two children, and I want you to have a better life than others!”

       Ning Junyan said, “I have a better life with Chen Yuncheng than anyone else.”

       “You’re crazy,” Shu Rong turned around and returned to the bed, and said to Ning Zhanghong, “Your son is crazy. His head probably hasn’t been healed, you should get out of the hospital quickly and find a specialist to look at him.”

       Ning Zhanghong sighed and said, “Junyan, this is not right.”

       Ning Junyan said to him, “You’d better get some rest, and whether it’s right or not will be discussed when you’re discharged from the hospital.”

       Ning Zhanghong looked at Shu Rong, “Don’t worry, the child will be taught slowly.”

       Shu Rong said angrily, “How else am I supposed to teach? Are you going to teach me?”

       Ning Zhanghong simply closed his eyes, and his brow furrowed as he stopped talking.

       Ning Junyan said to Shu Rong, “Stop arguing with him, don’t you want him to be discharged from the hospital?”

       Shu Rong finally calmed down.

       Ning Junyan walked towards the door and said to Shu Rong before opening the door, “That Yu Jie, last time Yuncheng asked me to tell you that his background is not clean, and told you not to associate with him.”

       Shu Rong folded her arms and didn’t look at Ning Junyan, “I know what’s going on in my mind, I have no business dealings with him.” After she finished speaking, she couldn’t hold back and said again, “And what’s with Chen Yuncheng? How could his friend speak to me like that?”

       Ning Junyan said, “He didn’t say anything wrong. What’s it to you if he beats up Yu Jie? In the future, when you come across such things, don’t get involved in nosy things. Just stay away from them.”

       Shu Rong was almost trembling with anger at his words and took deep breaths to calm down.

       Ning Junyan had already left the ward and closed the door gently.

       On the way back, Guan Anlin was still driving, and Chen Yuncheng sat in the passenger seat.

       Guan Anlin thought about it and felt a little worried. He asked Chen Yuncheng, “Is what I said to Ning Junyan’s mother unpleasant? Why is she so angry?”

       Chen Yuncheng laughed a little suddenly, propped his head lazily with one hand against the window, and said, “It’s alright.”

       Guan Anlin was puzzled, “How can you still laugh? I’m afraid of offending someone, and it will cause you more trouble in the future.”

       Chen Yuncheng sighed and said, “I didn’t expect her to accept me either.”

       From the way Shu Rong had sneered at him during New Year’s Eve to the way Shu Rong had ignored him on the day of Ning Zhanghong’s surgery, Chen Yuncheng already knew very well in his heart that no matter what he did, Shu Rong would not accept him and still harboured an inexplicable hostility towards him.

       His courtesy and care for Shu Rong stem from his nature, but it did not mean that he had unrealistic delusions about Shu Rong. Therefore, he was not too concerned about whether or not Guan Anlin would offend Shu Rong and even felt a little secretly funny when he saw Shu Rong’s face change.

       Guan Anlin asked him, “Then what are your plans?”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “No plan, I’m going to leave it to Ning Junyan.” After he said this, he suddenly realized that Ning Junyan was too reliable in his heart. No matter how Shu Rong obstructed him, he would always trusts Ning Junyan. There was absolutely no way Ning Junyan would give up on him because of that.

Notes:
Good thing Chen Yuncheng is not the typical I need your mom and dad to accept me kind of partner. But it must also be because Ning Junyan give him good assurance too

       Ning Junyan pressed himself against Chen Yuncheng and lowered his head as he patiently unbuttoned Chen Yuncheng’s pyjamas one by one.

       Chen Yuncheng asked him, “Have you had enough sleep this afternoon? Are not you tired now?”

       Ning Junyan didn’t stop moving and just said, “I’m tired, but I need to feed myself first.”

       Chen Yuncheng couldn’t help but laugh, “I don’t know what’s going on in your head all day long.”

       Ning Junyan looked up at him, “Thinking about you quite a lot.”

       When he really took off Chen Yuncheng’s pyjamas, Ning Junyan hugged him again and did nothing else, closed his eyes, and said slowly, “You said you’d try anything with me.”

       Chen Yuncheng stroked his hair, “There must be a bottom line.”

       Ning Junyan said, “What’s your bottom line?”

       Chen Yuncheng thought for a while and said, “I can’t say it now. I can’t promise you all the weird things.”

       Ning Junyan said softly, “My bottom line is you. Nothing else matters.”

       Chen Yuncheng glanced at him and saw that his eyes were still closed, and the expression on his face probably didn’t change when he said this.

       After a while, Ning Junyan fell asleep. Chen Yuncheng gently moved his hand away and rolled out of bed to clean up his changed clothes and wet towels in the bathroom. He waited until everything was tidied up, then turned off the light and went back to bed, lying beside Ning Junyan to sleep.

       Ning Zhanghong stayed in the ICU for a few days and was transferred to the general ward when his condition stabilised.

       After Chen Yuncheng found out about it, he thought he should go and visit him.

       It just so happened that afternoon Guan Anlin accompanied him to a second-hand car dealership to look at the cars. Chen Yuncheng actually didn’t really think much about famous brand cars, and he never felt that he needed a mortgage to buy a second-hand famous brand car, but he also felt that what Sun Shiliang said was very reasonable. In business, the richer people think you are, the more willing they are to deal with you.

       Guan Anlin was quite interested in these cars, and he was very happy during the test drive.

       On the way back from the used car dealership, Guan Anlin hummed to the radio while driving the van.

       Chen Yuncheng said that he wanted to go to the hospital to visit Ning Junyan’s father.

       Guan Anlin had already heard him mention this matter and said, “Going to see your father-in-law?”

       Chen Yuncheng gave him a blank look and didn’t bother to talk to him.

       Guan Anlin continued, “You said his father is the director of some hospital, right? Do you think he’d jump up from his hospital bed in fierce opposition if he knew about you two?”

       Chen Yuncheng imagined Ning Zhanghong’s character and temper and was really not sure how he would react. He was definitely against it, but he didn’t know whether Ning Zhanghong would oppose it for himself or for his wife’s sake.

       When he thought of these things, Chen Yuncheng couldn’t help being a little upset and said, “His mother is more difficult to deal with than his father.”

       Guan Anlin nodded in understanding, “An evil mother-in-law. What are your plans?”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “I have no plans, I believe in Ning Junyan.”

       Guan Anlin said, “It’s not like it’s your mother anyway.”

       Ning Junyan was on the night shift tonight, and Chen Yuncheng planned to return to the store with Guan Anlin after seeing the patient.

       Guan Anlin parked the car in the hospital parking lot, accompanied him to buy fruits and flowers in front of the hospital, and then went up to the hospital room.

       When he reached the door of the ward, Chen Yuncheng saw that the door was only ajar, and Ning Junyan was sitting next to the bed in a white coat, while Ning Zhanghong was lying on the bed, looking like he had already woken up and was talking to Ning Junyan.

       Guan Anlin didn’t go in but sat on the chair at the ward’s door and waited for Chen Yuncheng.

       Chen Yuncheng raised his hand and knocked on the door.

       Ning Junyan and Ning Zhanghong looked at the door at the same time. Ning Junyan stood up and walked towards Chen Yuncheng, “Why didn’t you tell me you were coming?”

       The time was now past four o’clock in the afternoon, Chen Yuncheng said, “I’m afraid you are still busy, so I didn’t call you.” After he said that, he turned to Ning Zhanghong and greeted, “Uncle Ning.”

       Ning Zhanghong nodded.

       Ning Junyan took the flowers and fruit basket from him and put them on the window sill of the ward. Chen Yuncheng walked to the bed and asked, “Is Uncle feeling better now?”

       Ning Zhanghong said, “It’s much better. Thank you, please have a seat.”

       Chen Yuncheng seemed a little cautious and did not sit down.

       Ning Junyan walked behind him and pressed his shoulders so that he could sit in the chair while he himself sat by the hospital bed, which was very close to Chen Yuncheng.

       A few questions and answers were exchanged between Chen Yuncheng and Ning Zhanghong, all about Ning Zhanghong’s health. Ning Zhanghong’s attitude towards Chen Yuncheng was somewhat similar to Shu Rong’s in that he was polite in a distant way, but he was different from Shu Rong, in that his politeness was superficial and seemed to be the same in the face of anyone.

       After he said a few words, Chen Yuncheng felt that he had nothing to say. He was just here to visit, and now that he had achieved his goal, he could leave, so he glanced at Ning Junyan.

       Ning Junyan was also looking at him, noticing his gaze, and said, “Is there something you want to tell me?”

       Chen Yuncheng said “En”.

       Ning Junyan stood up and said to Ning Zhanghong, “You should rest first.”

       Chen Yuncheng immediately got up and said goodbye to Ning Zhanghong, “Uncle, I’m going to leave in a bit, I wish you a speedy recovery.”

       Ning Zhanghong nodded, “Take care.”

       Ning Junyan and Chen Yuncheng came out of the ward together and reached out to close the door. Chen Yuncheng heaved a sigh of relief and said in a low voice, “I don’t know what to say to your father.”

       “I know,” Ning Junyan said, “so didn’t I tell you to go?”

       Chen Yuncheng smiled.

       Guan Anlin was sitting outside right now, concentrating on playing games on his mobile phone without even raising his head.

       Chen Yuncheng walked over and kicked his leg, “Let’s go.”

       Guan Anlin only said, “Right away.” He turned around and continued his game.

       “Leaving?” Ning Junyan asked Chen Yuncheng.

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Why wouldn’t I leave, aren’t you on duty today?”

       Ning Junyan asked, “You just came to see my dad?”

       Chen Yuncheng answered him with a smile, “Yes.”

       Ning Junyan looked at him and didn’t speak.

       Chen Yuncheng said, “I’ll come over tomorrow night.”

       Just when Guan Anlin finished a game, he raised his head and glanced at the two of them with an annoyed look on his face. He stuffed the phone back into his pants pocket, stood up and said to Chen Yuncheng, “Let’s go.”

       Chen Yuncheng nodded, “Let’s go.”

       As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of high heels coming from the other end of the corridor. He subconsciously looked up, and saw Shu Rong walking towards the ward in a light blue suit today.

       There was a middle-aged man beside Shu Rong, holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand and turning his head to talk to Shu Rong. It was Yu Jie whom Chen Yuncheng had met at Shu Rong’s place when she accompanied Ning Junyan home for dinner during the New Year.

       Chen Yuncheng frowned slightly.

       Yu Jie was talking to Shu Rong with a smile at first, but he seemed to have noticed the sight from this side. He raised his head and saw Chen Yuncheng and the others. His eyes turned to Guan Anlin as if he didn’t know him. He maintained a smile on his face and went on and said something to Shu Rong.

       Shu Rong also showed a polite smile.

       When she got closer, Shu Rong looked at Ning Junyan and asked, “Is your father awake? Boss Yu came to visit him specially.”

       Ning Junyan said, “He took a nap at noon and woke up just now.”

       Shu Rong turned to face Yu Jie and said, “Then let’s go in.”

       Yu Jie nodded and followed Shu Rong to enter the ward. He passed by Chen Yuncheng and Guan Anlin with flowers in his arms without looking up at them again.

       But at this time, Guan Anlin made an unexpected move. He punched Yu Jie in the face and cursed, “Old fvcking dog!”

       His punch was so heavy that Yu Jie’s face suddenly turned to the side, and the flower in his hand fell to the ground.

       Chen Yuncheng held Guan Anlin when he was about to punch him a second time and shouted, “Stop!”

       Shu Rong had one hand on the doorknob of the ward, but turned around with a look of surprise, looked at Chen Yuncheng and Guan Anlin, and said, “What are you doing?”

       Yu Jie covered his face and stood up straight.

       Shu Rong asked him, “Boss Yu, are you okay? I’ll call the police right away.”

       Ning Junyan reached out and pressed Shu Rong’s hand, which was about to hold the phone, and said, “No need.” He looked at Yu Jie, “Boss Yu, are you okay?”

       After Ning Junyan ate briefly, he lay down on the sofa and fell asleep.

       But he insisted on sleeping with Chen Yuncheng in his arms. The two of them squeezed together on the narrow leather sofa, facing each other, with Ning Junyan using his arms to hold Chen Yuncheng in his arms.

       Chen Yuncheng felt that it was too crowded and thought it would be difficult to fall asleep, but because he was too tired, he fell asleep unconsciously, leaning against Ning Junyan’s arms.

       After they both slept until almost six o’clock in the afternoon, Chen Yuncheng woke up by himself and found that he was lying in Ning Junyan’s arms, and Ning Junyan was pinned underneath him.

       Chen Yuncheng’s first reaction was to get up with his hands on the sofa. He was afraid that he would crush Ning Junyan, but Ning Junyan’s arm was still around his waist. As soon as he moved, Ning Junyan hugged him back with force.

       Ning Junyan put his hand on Chen Yuncheng’s head, “Sleep a little longer.”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Let’s sleep in a different position.”

       Ning Junyan opened his eyes, his expression was still unclear. He just looked straight at Chen Yuncheng and said, “What position do you like?”

       Chen Yuncheng smiled, pretending not to understand the meaning of his words, raised his hand and touched his face, “I’m afraid I’ll crush you. Your brain is already bad; what if something else happens to your body?”

       Ning Junyan said, “Then you’ll be responsible.”

       Despite what he said, Ning Junyan didn’t hold on for too long. He hugged Chen Yuncheng for a while, then let go and got up from the sofa together with him.

       Ning Junyan went out for a while, and when he returned, he said to Chen Yuncheng, “Let’s go back first.”

       Chen Yuncheng asked him, “Don’t you need to keep watch here tonight?”

       Ning Junyan shook his head, “He’s still in the ICU, and his family members can’t go in to take care of him, and Director Yu is on duty tonight, he will handle the situation properly.”

       Chen Yuncheng and Ning Junyan left the office together. When he saw Ning Junyan lock the door, he couldn’t help but ask, “Do I need to go and have a look?”

       “No,” Ning Junyan said calmly, “You can’t get in either.” He locked the door, turned around and kissed Chen Yuncheng’s forehead, “It’ll be fine.”

       Ning Junyan took Chen Yuncheng’s hand and left. Chen Yuncheng felt a little bad as he watched people coming and going in the corridor of the ward, but considering Ning Junyan’s mood at this time, he couldn’t bear to let go of his hand.

       They had just walked two steps and saw Shu Rong in the corridor leading to the ward.

       Shu Rong was still wearing the dress from last night, with a coat over it, and no makeup on her face, but her hair had been combed again.

       Her gaze fell on Ning Junyan’s hand that was holding Chen Yuncheng’s.

       Chen Yuncheng just moved his fingers, and Ning Junyan held them even tighter.

       “What’s the matter?” Ning Junyan asked.

       Shu Rong raised her eyes to look at Ning Junyan, “Aren’t you going back to accompany mom tonight?”

       Ning Junyan said, “I need to have a good rest. Aunt is at home. If you really can’t sleep well, you can ask aunt to come and accompany you. I can’t stay with you all night now.”

       Shu Rong asked, “Does Yuncheng still live at your place?”

       Ning Junyan frowned lightly and said to Shu Rong, “Don’t interfere in my private affairs.”

       Shu Rong’s tone was a little tired, “Your father is still lying in the ICU, and you want to talk to your mother like this?”

       Ning Junyan said, “Dad is still lying in the ICU. It’s even more pointless for us to talk about this now. Why don’t we all go back early and rest so that we can have energy tomorrow.” After he said that, he took Chen Yuncheng’s hand and walked forward.

       When he passed by Shu Rong’s side, Chen Yuncheng was a little embarrassed but still didn’t say anything.

       They went to take the elevator directly down to the underground parking lot of the hospital.

       Chen Yuncheng didn’t feel too good and said to Ning Junyan in the elevator, “Why don’t you send Auntie back first?”

       Ning Junyan said, “Don’t worry. Someone will pick her up.”

       Chen Yuncheng wanted to say something but stopped.

       Ning Junyan asked him, “What do you want to say?”

       Chen Yuncheng hesitated but said, “She’s your mother after all; there’s no need to make things so stiff.”

       Ning Junyan replied, “It’s not stiff. Our relationship has always been like this.”

       When the elevator arrived, they walked out one after the other. Chen Yuncheng followed Ning Junyan and said to him, “Your mother will definitely object when she finds out about us.”

       Ning Junyan’s car was parked in the parking space not far from the elevator. He took out the car key from his pocket to unlock the door and said, “It’s none of her business.”

       Chen Yuncheng paused momentarily before following him again, “Then whose business is it?”

       Ning Junyan said, “It’s no one’s business but yours and mine.”

       After they got into the car, Chen Yuncheng gave up his original idea of going back to the store and followed Ning Junyan directly home.

       After Chen Yuncheng took a shower in the evening, he folded his suit in his pyjamas and put it in a bag, ready to send it to be washed tomorrow.

       He had wrinkled this set of clothes, and he couldn’t help but feel heartbroken at the thought of buying it for two thousand dollars.

       Ning Junyan was still in the bathroom. Chen Yuncheng felt sorry for him because he worked too hard, so he put hot water in the bathtub for him to soak in. The bathroom was now quiet and silent, without a sound.

       Chen Yuncheng waited for a while and felt a little uneasy. He opened the door and went in to see Ning Junyan lying in the bathtub with his head leaning against the outside of the bathtub, and his eyes closed as if he was asleep.

       He walked over gently, squatted down outside the bathtub, and reached out to touch Ning Junyan’s face.

       Ning Junyan opened his eyes, glanced at him through the hazy mist, and reached out to hug him in.

       Chen Yuncheng hurriedly struggled, he didn’t have many clothes left here with Ning Junyan, only this set of pyjamas now, and said, “I won’t have any clothes to wear tonight if they get wet.”

       Ning Junyan said lazily, “You don’t need to wear clothes.”

       Chen Yuncheng smiled, “Nonsense.”

       Ning Junyan maintained the posture of lying in the bathtub, bare his body in front of Chen Yuncheng indifferently, and stroked Chen Yuncheng’s hair with his wet palm.

       Chen Yuncheng rolled up his sleeves and lay on the bathtub’s edge with his arms folded.

       Ning Junyan said, “You promised me yesterday that you would move back.”

       Chen Yuncheng asked him, “I promised you?”

       Ning Junyan let out an “En”.

       Chen Yuncheng thought for a while and said seriously, “It’s not that I don’t want to live with you, but this is too far from the market, and I’m too busy at work to take care of it. I’ll move some things over and come over every day whenever I’m free, and when you’re on duty, or I’m too busy until it’s too late, I’ll sleep in the shop. What do you think?”

       Ning Junyan didn’t answer, his hand still resting on Chen Yuncheng’s head as his eyes slowly swept over the entire bathroom.

       “What’s the matter?” Chen Yuncheng asked him.

       Ning Junyan said, “Let’s change the house, somewhere more convenient for you.”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “No need. It costs money and energy.”

       Ning Junyan said, “We can install a big bathtub in the bathroom.”

       Chen Yuncheng asked him with a smile, “What else do you have in mind?”

       Ning Junyan was really giving it a thought, “Putting mirrors on all four walls and the ceiling of the bedroom?”

       “Are you crazy?” Chen Yuncheng smiled, “Won’t you be afraid at night?”

       Ning Junyan said, “Afraid of what?”

       “I’m afraid you are not in your right mind,” he reached out to touch the water in the bathtub, it was much cooler than before, so he said, “Stop soaking, get up.”

       Ning Junyan stretched out his hands towards him.

       Chen Yuncheng stood up, grabbed his hand and pulled him up from the bathtub, reached out and handed him the towel. He then bent down to drain the water in the bathtub.

       Ning Junyan wiped the water on his chest and back with a towel, and asked Chen Yuncheng, “Why don’t you carry me up?”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “You should dry your body quickly, and I will carry you to the bed.”

       Ning Junyan wiped off the water on his body, and Chen Yuncheng really stretched out his hand to carry him, but he had just wrapped his arms around Ning Junyan’s waist before he could make any effort, Ning Junyan picked him up.

       Chen Yuncheng quickly put his arms around Ning Junyan’s neck and was carried out by Ning Junyan and thrown on the bed.

       Shu Rong herself was a medical student, she certainly knew how dangerous aortic dissection was. She showed a very brief expression of panic before saying, “Don’t go, call Director Yu over here.”

       Ning Junyan looked too calm, he said, “I can go.”

       Shu Rong thought a lot in a short time, and her attitude was as tough as Ning Junyan’s, “Don’t you do it, and your dad won’t approve of you going on this surgery.”

       Ning Junyan turned around and left, “I’ve already asked to arrange for emergency surgery.”

       Shu Rong was a little flustered, she suddenly said to Chen Yuncheng, “Yuncheng, help me persuade him, if there is anything wrong with this operation, it will be very bad for him and his father, he’d better not do it.”

       Chen Yuncheng heard Shu Rong’s words. He subconsciously followed Ning Junyan and called out, “Junyan.”

       Ning Junyan stopped, turned around and looked at Chen Yuncheng, with a steady tone, “I said it’s fine.”

       Chen Yuncheng didn’t know so much, nor did he know what exactly Shu Rong was talking about when she said it was bad. He was just worried about Ning Junyan, and said, “Care to reconsider?”

       Ning Junyan said, “Others can’t do it, but I can. Do you believe me?”

       Chen Yuncheng replied, “Of course I believe you.”

       Ning Junyan said to him, “You agreed to come to me tomorrow night.” After speaking, he glanced at the time on his watch, “It should be tonight, I’ll be waiting for you.”

       Chen Yuncheng still did not choose to leave, and he was really uneasy. Even if he went back now, he was not in the mood to rest and work, he might as well stay and wait for news from Ning Junyan.

       Even though he knew that Shu Rong didn’t want to see him, he accompanied Shu Rong to wait outside the operating room.

       Soon after the operation started, the chief of cardiac surgery, Director Yu rushed to the hospital, greeted Shu Rong and entered the operating room.

       Shu Rong’s pale face finally recovered a little, and she sat on the bench outside the operating room with her arms folded.

       It was a bit difficult time for Chen Yuncheng. He sat quietly, not looking at his phone or doing anything else, and his eyes kept falling on the closed door of the operating room.

       After a while, he realised that Shu Rong was looking at him, but he didn’t turn his head away.

       Just now, Ning Junyan had acted a bit ambiguously towards him in front of Shu Rong. Shu Rong was a sensitive woman, and Chen Yun Cheng felt that she probably noticed something, but until now Shu Rong had not mentioned a word about it.

       Maybe it was because the time was not right, Shu Rong’s all thoughts were still on the father and son in the operating room, and she couldn’t care about other things for the time being.

       At eight o’clock in the morning, Chen Yuncheng was tired and hungry, so he hesitantly asked Shu Rong, “Auntie, do you want to eat something?” He thought he could go and buy breakfast for Shu Rong.

       But Shu Rong shook her head with a cold expression.

       Chen Yuncheng got up, walked to the end of the corridor, and took a cup of hot water with a paper cup. When he came back and wanted to give the hot water to Shu Rong, he saw three or four more people at the door of the operating room, all of whom were not far from Shu Rong’s age. A woman helping Shu Rong to put on her coat, and someone handing her a thermos cup filled with hot water.

       One of the middle-aged men looked seventy to eighty percent similar to Ning Zhanghong. Chen Yuncheng guessed that they might be Ning Zhanghong’s relatives, so he did not approach them but sat on a seat a little further away from the operating theatre and silently drank the hot water in the paper cup.

       They stayed at the door of the operating room for a while; some left, and some stayed behind to keep Shu Rong company.

       Shu Rong did not glance towards Chen Yuncheng’s side, nor did she introduce Chen Yuncheng’s identity, so Chen Yuncheng sat alone and after a while, feeling too tired, leaned his head back against the wall and fell asleep.

       He did not sleep deeply and woke up intermittently in the middle of the night. He noticed that there were more and more people outside the operating room, who should be the family members of other surgical patients in the hospital. He didn’t move and fell asleep again after a while. When he woke up, the people around him changed, only he and Shu Rong were still there, and even the woman who accompanied Shu Rong changed.

       It was late afternoon, and the operation had been going on for seven or eight hours since the early hours of the morning.

       The moment Chen Yuncheng heard the door of the operating room pushed open, he suddenly woke up from his half-asleep state for some reason and saw Ning Junyan appear at the door of the operating room.

       Ning Junyan didn’t even change his clothes yet. He was wearing a blue short-sleeved shirt in the operating room but had already taken off his hat and mask. He first looked at Shu Rong and said, “The operation went well.” Then he walked in the direction of Chen Yuncheng.

       Shu Rong raised her hand to cover her chest, and sitting next to Shu Rong was Ning Zhanghong’s younger sister, Ning Zhangyu. She still had questions to ask Ning Junyan, but she didn’t know where he was going, so she got up and called out, “Junyan?”

       Ning Junyan kept walking forward.

       Chen Yuncheng stood up, and there were other family members of the patients around him, all of whom looked curiously at the doctor who came out of the operating room.

       Ning Junyan walked up to Chen Yuncheng, raised his arms and hugged him hard.

       Chen Yuncheng didn’t have time to think about it at all and quickly hugged Ning Junyan back. He felt that Ning Junyan’s whole body strength was pressing on him, and suddenly felt distressed. He patted Ning Junyan on the back and said, “It’s okay.”

       Ning Junyan’s voice had the huskiness of over-exhaustion as he said to him, “Since you’re not leaving, go to the office and wait for me.”

       Chen Yuncheng nodded, “Okay.”

       Ning Junyan let go, turned and went back in the direction of the operating room. When passing by Shu Rong and the others, Ning Zhangyu looked at him in surprise, but he didn’t say anything and closed the door of the operating room after entering.

       Chen Yuncheng noticed that many people were looking at him, so he turned and left, taking the elevator back to the department upstairs.

       He walked outside Ning Junyan’s office, tried to open it only to find out that the door was locked, and when he retreated to find a place to sit and wait, the head nurse came over and opened the door for him.

       The head nurse met him and asked him, “Are you Chief Ning’s friend? He just called and asked me to open the door for him.”

       Chen Yuncheng responded, “Thank you.” After the head nurse left, he opened the door and walked in.

       After waiting for another half an hour, Ning Junyan came back in a white coat. He opened the door of the office but did not come in. He said to Chen Yuncheng, “Wait for me a little longer.” Then he went to the doctor’s office to give the postoperative prescriptions.

       When he came back again, Ning Junyan raised his hand and locked the office door. He lay directly on the sofa, with his head resting on Chen Yuncheng’s thigh who was sitting in a corner of the sofa, and his two long legs curled up on the other side in a pitiful way.

       Ning Junyan hugged Chen Yuncheng’s waist with his hands and buried his face in his arms.

       Chen Yuncheng stroked his hair and found it was slightly damp, and said, “Your hair is still wet.”

       Ning Junyan said, “I blew it, it will dry soon.” He had taken a shower after the operation.

       Chen Yuncheng asked again, “Don’t you need to keep watch over your father?”

       Ning Junyan said, “My mother and the rest of the family were there, and I said I needed to rest.”

       Chen Yuncheng asked, “Do you want to go back and rest?” He felt that it was not good for Ning Junyan to sleep here.

       Ning Junyan shook his head, “I’ll wait a little longer to see.”

       After a while, Ning Junyan suddenly raised his head, and asked Chen Yuncheng, “Have you eaten yet?”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “I’m not hungry.”

       Not hungry meant that he hadn’t eaten yet, so Ning Junyan raised his hand to get his mobile phone and called for someone to bring up food.

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Just rest, don’t worry about me.”

       Ning Junyan ended the call, put down the phone and said, “I can’t make my wife hungry.”

       Chen Yuncheng smiled, his tone was a little more relaxed and asked him, “The operation went well, didn’t it?”

       Ning Junyan lay on his lap, looked up at him, and said, “I said I can do it.”

       Director Yu rushed over shortly after the operation started, but the operation was still performed by Ning Junyan. He was calmer than everyone imagined. Every time he was on the operating table, Ning Junyan would not be afraid, and his hand holding the scalpel never trembled.

       He was not trying to be brave in today’s operation, but he knew that no matter who was lying on the operating table, he was capable of doing his best. So he was unwilling to entrust others to do it. He wanted to take everything that belonged to him in his hands, even if it was his father, whom he was not close to.

       Chen Yuncheng looked into Ning Junyan’s eyes, “I know you are the best.” He also felt emotional at this moment, he thought he really loved him.

       Ning Junyan said calmly, “Then will you reward me?”

       Chen Yuncheng smiled and asked him, “What reward do you want at this time? Are you not tired?”

       Ning Junyan said, “I’m tired, but I can’t sleep. I remember I told you that every time I have an operation, I want to vent.”

       Chen Yuncheng pretended not to understand, “How do you vent?”

       Ning Junyan grabbed his hand and pressed it to his body.

       Chen Yuncheng felt unbelievable, “How long has it been since you slept? How can you still get hard now?”

       Ning Junyan’s tone was flat, as if he was discussing what to eat tonight with him, and said, “It was just an impulse before, and since I saw you, there have been pictures.”

       Chen Yuncheng was suddenly embarrassed to speak.

       But Ning Junyan continued, “There are various, do you want to try?”

       Chen Yuncheng raised his hand to cover Ning Junyan’s eyes, not letting him look at him, and said in a low voice, “You go to bed first, and I will try with you after you’ve rested enough.”

       Chen Yuncheng couldn’t help but want to get up after sitting on Ning Junyan’s lap for a long time, but Ning Junyan hugged him and refused to let go.

       “Am I not heavy?” Chen Yuncheng asked, after all, he was tall and not too slender.

       Ning Junyan said, “I can hold you, I want to hold you forever.”

       Chen Yuncheng asked him with a smile, “Why are you so clingy?”

       Ning Junyan said, “Because you have ignored me for a long time.”

       Chen Yuncheng gently combed Ning Junyan’s hair with his fingers, “I was too busy a while ago, and the fair just ended today.” As he spoke about this, Chen Yuncheng felt a little excited again and told Ning Junyan about the people he had met at the fair and how many orders he had signed in the past few days.

       Ning Junyan’s expression was very flat, but his eyes kept looking at Chen Yuncheng without moving away as if he was listening to him very seriously.

       After a while, Ning Junyan asked him, “So have you made enough money?”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Give me a few more months, and I will pay you back 100,000 yuan first.”

       Ning Junyan shook his head slowly, “I don’t want you to pay back the money. You said you would move back, and the contract is still with me.”

       Chen Yuncheng’s tone was a bit hesitant, “Move back?”

       Ning Junyan asked him, “Do you not like my house? Let’s sell it and buy it again, and write our two names on it.”

       Chen Yuncheng was stunned for a moment, looked at him and said, “There’s no need for that, you’ll have to spend money on renovations.”

       Ning Junyan said, “It’s fine, you can decorate it however you want.”

       Chen Yuncheng thought of the iron chains in Ning Junyan’s room, and suddenly a lot of bad memories associated with it rose. He then said, “No need, the house is pretty good now.”

       “It’s too far away from your work,” Ning Junyan said.

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Actually, I’m thinking about getting a loan to buy a car.”

       “Um?”

       Chen Yuncheng hugged Ning Junyan’s shoulders. He felt a little tired since it was late, he leaned on Ning Junyan and said, “Sun ge gave me advice. He said that even if you have no money, you do something to keep your appearance even when you don’t have the means to when you are in business. You need to be vain, otherwise, people will think you can’t make money and will be less willing to talk business with you. So I’m considering buying a second-hand BMW that I can pay for with a mortgage.”

       Ning Junyan said, “If you need money, just tell me.”

       Chen Yuncheng smiled and said, “Where else can I use your money?”

       Ning Junyan said: “You are all mine now. Who else’s money do you want to spend if not mine? Boss Sun?”

       “How can you even be jealous of Boss Sun?”

       Ning Junyan’s words were not reasonable in the slightest, “No one can do it. It can only be me.”

       Chen Yuncheng held his face and kissed him, “Okay, it can only be you.”

       It was too late, and Chen Yuncheng planned to leave.

       Ning Junyan was unwilling to let him go.

       Chen Yuncheng said, “You are on duty in the hospital, and I’m messing with you here. Do you count as dereliction of duty? What if there are emergency patients halfway through?”

       Ning Junyan frowned slightly as if thinking about this question seriously.

       Chen Yuncheng coaxed him, “Can I come over tomorrow night?”

       Ning Junyan glanced at him and said, “Move back.”

       Chen Yuncheng thought for a while, “Okay, let’s discuss it slowly tomorrow night, okay?”

       Only then did Ning Junyan let Chen Yuncheng get up from his arms.

       Chen Yuncheng stood up, and when he saw that Ning Junyan had also gotten up, he was about to turn around and walk towards the door, but at that moment, the mobile phone that Ning Junyan had been keeping on his desk rang.

       At this hour, there was no telling who would be calling Ning Junyan.

       Ning Junyan glanced at the incoming call, connected it, and in a slightly cold tone answered, “What’s the matter so late?”

       There was a faint voice coming from the phone, Chen Yuncheng couldn’t hear it clearly. It sounded like a woman’s voice, somewhat agitated.

       Ning Junyan’s expression remained unchanged, but he stood up straight, and his eyes became serious. He said, “Don’t be nervous, I’ll go to the emergency room now. You guys just follow the car.”

       The person on the other side of the phone said a few more words and ended the call.

       Chen Yuncheng looked at him and asked, “What’s wrong?”

       Ning Junyan stuffed his mobile phone into the pocket of his white coat, put his arms around Chen Yuncheng’s waist and led him outside, and said as he walked, “Nothing, my father is not feeling well, my mother has called an ambulance to bring him here now.”

       Chen Yuncheng asked in surprise, “Is it serious?”

       Ning Junyan said, “It’s okay, you can go back first, I’ll take you downstairs and call you a taxi.” After he said that, he lowered his head and kissed Chen Yuncheng on the lips, then stretched out his hand and opened the door of the office.

       Chen Yuncheng didn’t stop, but said, “I’ll stay with you.”

       Ning Junyan shook his head, “I’ll take care of it. There’s no need for you to stay and face my mother.”

       Chen Yuncheng knew that an ambulance had been called to bring him to the hospital and that Ning Junyan’s father’s illness was certainly not as light as Ning Junyan’s tone of voice. He had no feelings for Ning Junyan’s parents, but he cared about Ning Junyan. No matter what the relationship between their family was, they were his blood relatives after all, and Chen Yuncheng wanted to stay with him.

       They took the elevator downstairs.

       Ning Junyan’s expression was very calm.

       Chen Yuncheng could not help but hold his hand.

       Ning Junyan turned his head, rubbed his forehead against the top of Chen Yuncheng’s head, and said, “It’s okay, wife.”

       Chen Yuncheng felt that these words were more like Ning Junyan comforting himself, so he nodded and repeated, “It’s okay.”

       He insisted that he refused to go, so Ning Junyan took him with him to the emergency hall, and soon after he arrived, he heard the sound of an ambulance.

       Chen Yuncheng knew that he couldn’t help, so he followed Ning Junyan far away, watching him trot towards the ambulance, and when Ning Zhanghong was carried off from the ambulance and put on a movable bed, Ning Junyan instructed the doctor on duty at the emergency department to arrange for tests to be done immediately.

       “Electrocardiogram and Echocardiography,” Ning Junyan said in a quick and steady tone as he followed the propelling hospital bed forward while pressing his stethoscope to Ning Zhanghong’s left chest to examine him.

       Chen Yuncheng saw the pale and painful face of the middle-aged man on the hospital bed. Immediately afterwards, he saw Shu Rong running behind the hospital bed in a hurry. Shu Rong had no makeup on and was wearing a sleeveless dress with a tense expression.

       Shu Rong also saw Chen Yuncheng, she slowed down briefly, and then quickly followed without talking to Chen Yuncheng.

       Chen Yuncheng didn’t care. He followed them and saw Ning Zhanghong being sent for examination. Ning Junyan followed into the examination room. He could only wait outside, and Shu Rong was also waiting outside.

       “Auntie,” Chen Yuncheng took the initiative to greet Shu Rong.

       He didn’t know if it was because of the lack of makeup, Shu Rong’s whole face looked very pale. She sat on a chair in the waiting area, looked up at Chen Yuncheng, still maintaining that well-bred attitude, and asked, “Why are you here?”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “I’m here to find Junyan.”

       “Oh,” Shu Rong didn’t continue to pursue, just nodded, stood up again, and walked back and forth restlessly. The air-conditioning in the hospital was sufficient. She was wearing thin clothes and unconsciously hugged her arms.

       When Chen Yuncheng saw this, he took off his coat and helped her put it on.

       Shu Rong turned her head to look at him, then looked down at the coat dr4p3d over her shoulders, took it off and handed it back to Chen Yuncheng, “Thank you, it’s not necessary.”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “It’s too cold here, Auntie. You should put on.”

       Shu Rong showed a forced smile, “I’m not used to the smell of alcohol and tobacco.”

       Chen Yuncheng was stunned for a moment, he realized that he had eaten out tonight, and his coat had a lot of alcohol and tobacco smell on it, but he didn’t mention it when he got close to Ning Junyan just now. Chen Yuncheng put back his coat and said, “I’m sorry.”

       Ning Junyan was busy all night, accompanying Ning Zhanghong to do various examinations. It was only until dawn that Ning Junyan walked out of the examination room.

       Shu Rong stood up suddenly and asked, “How is it?”

       Ning Junyan didn’t answer, he walked up to Chen Yuncheng and said to him, “You should go back and rest soon, I have to get ready for the operation.”

       Chen Yuncheng couldn’t help but grabbed his arm, “You’re going to do surgery now? You haven’t slept all night.”

       Ning Junyan raised his hand to stroke his hair, and said, “It’s okay.”

       Shu Rong kept looking at them.

       After Ning Junyan and Chen Yuncheng finished talking, they turned to Shu Rong and said, “Acute aortic dissection. It must be operated on as soon as possible. I will do it myself.”

       It was the first time Chen Yuncheng wore a suit and tie, and he was suddenly a little embarrassed when he looked in the mirror. The shop assistant at the counter helped him tidy up his collar and cuffs and kept complimenting him on how good he looked.

       So he took a closer look at himself in the mirror and saw that he was indeed quite good-looking. He just had his hair trimmed yesterday, revealing a smooth and full forehead. Perhaps it was because of his personality, his facial features were soft, especially when he smiled. His eyes were curved in a way that made people feel close to him.

       Guan Anlin was different, as long as he didn’t smile, his whole body from his eyebrows to the corners of his jaw gave people an illusion of ruthlessness, especially when he wore a suit, he looked even colder. He stood in front of the mirror and looked at himself for a long time. He was obviously very satisfied with this look. He deliberately raised his face and slightly raised his head, revealing his sharp jaw angle, and raised his eyebrows at Chen Yuncheng.

       Chen Yuncheng didn’t bother to talk to him, asked him if he had chosen, and went to check out after Guan Anlin had chosen.

       Chen Yuncheng spent a total of nearly 4,000 yuan on two complete suits, and that was even at a discounted price. When he signed the receipt after swiping his card, his heart was bleeding.

       He warned Guan Anlin, pointing out that he bought this set for him, and told him to take good care of his clothes and only wear them on important occasions in the future.

       Guan Anlin said, “When we have money in the future, we shouldn’t just buy it randomly.” After coming down from the menswear floor, Guan Anlin also bought a pair of sunglasses at the mall, which he felt matched the suit perfectly and made him look like a ruthless character from a movie.

       The fair lasted for three days. Chen Yuncheng took the liquor brand he represented to participate in the fair. He did not have the money to apply for a well-located booth, so he found a corner on the outside, but there were still many customers passing by.

       During these three days, Chen Yuncheng put out many business cards. He got to know a lot of wine manufacturers and even signed a great number of orders on the last day, which was a great harvest for him.

       Chen Yuncheng was in a good mood. On the last day of the fair, he asked Guan Anlin to drive the packed things back to the store and then called all the employees in the store to have a meal with the two female college students he invited to work at the fair.

       The two female college students were very beautiful and were particularly fond of Chen Yuncheng. Chen Yuncheng also took good care of them and didn’t ask them to drink while eating. Because he was in a better mood, he took off his coat, leaned on the back of the chair with only his shirt on, smoked a cigarette and smiled as he watched Guan Anlin and the others clumsily chatting with two female college students.

       When they finished eating, Chen Yuncheng asked Guan Anlin to send the two female students back to school. He put his arm around Guan Anlin’s shoulders and walked to the side to give him a few words of advice.

       Guan Anlin was a little unhappy, “Who do you think I am? I’m a decent person.”

       Chen Yuncheng smiled.

       Guan Anlin asked him, “Where are you going?”

       Chen Yuncheng seemed to smile even more happily, and said, “I’ll go find Ning Junyan.”

       Guan Anlin made a ‘tsk’, not wanting to comment.

       Chen Yuncheng let go of the hand that was holding Guan Anlin’s shoulder, raised his hand and waved to tell everyone to drive safely when they go back. He put his suit jacket on his arm and went to the side of the road to hail a taxi.

       Tonight, Ning Junyan was working the night shift at the hospital. Chen Yuncheng felt it was a pity, but he really wanted to see him, so he called him just now to ask if he was busy.

       Ning Junyan said, “Not busy.”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Let me come to see you and bring you some supper.”

       Ning Junyan said to him, “Just bring yourself.”

       Chen Yuncheng got into the taxi and leaned his head back against the back seat, raising his hand to cover his face after a while. He was a little dizzy after drinking, but there was a wave of inexplicable excitement. He didn’t know whether he was excited that the fair was going well or that he was going to see Ning Junyan next.

       During the three months that he had put his life on the line to make money, it wasn’t that he and Ning Junyan hadn’t seen each other, but they really couldn’t see each other much, sometimes once a week, and sometimes even when he had made an appointment to go over at night, he would break it.

       He knew that Ning Junyan was unhappy, but actually, he also missed Ning Junyan very much. When he was really tired, he wanted to go to Ning Junyan and sleep in his arms, so that he could do nothing and think about nothing, but he thought of what Shu Rong said to him, and the fact that he still owed Ning Junyan 200,000, forced himself to give up his thoughts, put on a cold face and continued to work hard.

       Soon. Chen Yuncheng always said to himself, everything was getting better and better. It really did get better and better, so good that he couldn’t help but want to see Ning Junyan and share his happiness with him.

       The inpatient building was very deserted at night. Chen Yuncheng walked in and put on his coat. He stood in front of a mirror in the lobby on the ground floor, straightened his collar, pushed his hair upwards, patted his cheeks with his hand, and with a flushed cheek turned to the elevator.

       The little excitement and joy never dissipated, causing the corners of his mouth to rise slightly.

       The ward was also very quiet at this time. It was almost bedtime and many of the ward doors were closed, with only the faint sound of people talking coming out.

       Chen Yuncheng walked all the way to the door of Ning Junyan’s office, raised his hand and knocked lightly on the door.

       Ning Junyan’s deep voice came out, “Please come in.”

       Chen Yuncheng opened the door halfway and leaned in to look at him.

       Ning Junyan was wearing a white coat and was sitting behind his desk. On the desk was a thick book that looked like he was reading. He raised his eyes to look at Chen Yuncheng at the door, but didn’t get up, and leaned back slightly on the back of the chair.

       Chen Yuncheng smiled and said, “I’m coming in.”

       Ning Junyan didn’t say anything and just looked at him quietly.

       Chen Yuncheng had been wearing this suit for a few days and had already gotten used to it by now, but he felt embarrassed when he stood in front of Ning Junyan. He walked into the office and closed the door behind him.

       Ning Junyan looked at him carefully from head to toe with calm eyes, and said to him, “Come here.”

       Chen Yuncheng walked up to Ning Junyan, and looked down at him, “What’s the matter?”

       Ning Junyan slowly raised his hand, his long thin fingers holding the bottom edge of Chen Yuncheng’s tie and wrapping it around his index finger before suddenly pulling him hard on his tie, pulling him down to bend over and kiss him on the lips.

       It was an emotionally intense kiss they hadn’t seen each other in over a week.

       Chen Yuncheng quickly became full of emotion under the influence of alcohol, and the way he bend over made him a little uncomfortable. When Ning Junyan hugged his waist, he obediently straddled Ning Junyan’s lap and put his arms around Ning Junyan’s shoulders.

       It wasn’t an easy kiss to end.

       Chen Yuncheng soon felt Ning Junyan pull the hem of his shirt out of the waist of his suit trousers, his warm palm burrowing in to press against the skin of his waist.

       As the hand continued to be restless, Chen Yuncheng forced himself to end the kiss, pressed Ning Junyan’s hand, and said, “What are you doing?”

       Ning Junyan said coldly, “What are you talking about?”

       Chen Yuncheng looked at him and smiled slightly.

       Ning Junyan’s hand reached into Chen Yuncheng’s hair, grabbed his hair and pulled his head back, saying, “Didn’t you dress like this to seduce me?”

       Chen Yuncheng hurriedly said, “Don’t pull it, it hurts!” He regretted that he didn’t ask the barber to cut his hair shorter and let Ning Junyan find a chance to pull his hair.

       Ning Junyan didn’t let go but just relaxed his grip. His eyes slid all the way from Chen Yuncheng’s face, past his Adam’s apple, his collar, to the open chest of his suit jacket, and asked him, “What do you want to do dressed like this?”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “What kind of clothes do you wear? Isn’t this formal attire? Who wears a suit to seduce people?”

       Ning Junyan nipped at the upper edge of his tie knot with his teeth, slowly pulled it away, pressed his lips against his protruding Adam’s apple, and said, “You just want to seduce me, take off your clothes quickly, and cut the crap.”

       Chen Yuncheng suspected that no matter what he was wearing, in Ning Junyan’s eyes, it would look like he was trying to seduce him, so he said helplessly, “Stop making trouble, this is your office, and you are still on duty today.”

       Ning Junyan stopped and looked up at him, “Then what are you doing here?”

       Chen Yuncheng cupped Ning Junyan’s face with his hands and said, “I miss you, Yanyan. Not only does my body miss you, but my heart misses you too.”

       Ning Junyan looked like a wild beast that had been tamed suddenly, put away all the sharpness, raised his arms to hug Chen Yuncheng and leaned against the back of the seat, his palms pressed against Chen Yuncheng’s back, and said, “There is a bed in the duty room.”

       Chen Yuncheng closed his eyes, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and said, “Don’t even think about it.”

       On the second day after he returned, Ning Junyan transferred 100,000 yuan to Chen Yuncheng’s card, but he didn’t even call Chen Yuncheng beforehand, not even giving him room to refuse.

       Chen Yuncheng received a text message alert from the bank, and sat in front of the store in a daze for a long time, then called Ning Junyan, “Ning Junyan.”

       “Hm?” Ning Junyan was still at work, standing at the nurse’s station looking through the patient’s medical records while answering Chen Yuncheng’s call.

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Let me put myself as the collateral to you.”

       Ning Junyan’s clean fingertips tapped on the report sheet in front of him. He stopped turning the pages, and said, “Then, move back in.”

       The nurse who was sitting in the nurse’s station and was immersed in writing suddenly raised her head, opened her eyes wide to look at Ning Junyan, and then quickly lowered her head.

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Give me a little more time, I promise you, it will be soon.”

       Ning Junyan asked him, “How fast is soon?”

       Chen Yuncheng replied, “I am going to be swamped soon. Since I want to do this, I want to do my best. When I can afford to pay you back, we’ll live together, okay?”

       Ning Junyan said, “What kind of collateral is that for me? You just like to coax me.”

       At this moment, another nurse happened to walk in, pulled out a chair and sat down. She heard Ning Junyan’s words, showed a terrified expression, carefully looked at Ning Junyan’s face, and confirmed that she did not identify the wrong person.

       Ning Junyan asked him again, “What if you don’t make enough money?”

       Chen Yuncheng suppressed his shame, and said in a low voice, “Then I’m yours too, so I promise I won’t push you away in the future, okay?”

       After a moment of silence, Ning Junyan said, “I’ll go prepare a contract, so you can sign it.”

       Chen Yuncheng couldn’t help but smile when he heard the words, “Do you think it’s useful?”

       Ning Junyan said, “It may not be useful to others, but it ought to be useful to you. You should remember what you said to me today.” After he said that, Ning Junyan closed the medical record, handed it to the nurse and turned to leave.

       The nurse took the medical record book, her mouth reacting faster than her brain, and called out to him, “Chief Ning!”

       Ning Junyan turned to look at her.

       The nurse next to her hurriedly bumped her with an elbow. She came back to her senses and asked, “Are you still reading the medical records? Shall I put it away if not?”

       Ning Junyan said, “Put it away first, I’ll come over later.”

       After Ning Junyan left, the two nurses came together and were surprised to see each other.

       “What did you call him for?”

       “I don’t know, I just called out suddenly.”

       “Who was he talking to on the phone? A girlfriend? I haven’t heard that he has a girlfriend.”

       “How do I know? I just heard it when I came over. It scared me! Did you hear that? Ning Junyan is acting like a baby, it’s terrible.”

       “I don’t know how many people are about to get their hearts broken.”

       “What kind of heartbroken? What you said is hilarious, I haven’t seen anyone who dares to chase him.”

       “Unrequited love is also a cause for a broken heart.”

       …

       Chen Yuncheng received a copy of the mortgage contract from the same city courier that night, and Ning Junyan printed out all the shameful words he said on the phone and asked him to sign.

       When he was sitting by the bed looking at the contract, Guan Anlin moved closer to read it, but Chen Yuncheng quickly blocked it with his hand.

       “What?” Guan Anlin was not very happy, only saw the words of the mortgage loan contract on it, and asked, “What did you mortgage?”

       Chen Yuncheng folded the contract, stuffed it back into the envelope worriedly and put it under his pillow, “Don’t worry about it.” Then he said, “I’m going out for a while now, help me keep an eye on the business.”

       “Where are you going?” Guan Anlin asked.

       Chen Yuncheng said, “To the distillery.”

       He told Ning Junyan that he would be very busy these days and that was not a perfunctory reply, since he decided to get an agent, there would be a lot of things to do next.

       The first thing he did was to take three days to visit a distillery located in another province personally. The distillery was quite small, but the production environment was good, and because it was small, it was easy to connect. Chen Yuncheng suggested that he would like to change some of the goods into small packages when he picked up the goods, and the other party also expressed that they could discuss it.

       After he returned, Chen Yuncheng started visiting hot pot restaurants in the city. He first visited several chain stores with good business and offered to put the wine on consignment in the shops without paying for it. The hot pot restaurant would be paid according to the number of pieces sold. He also had small custom-made billboards and posters that he hoped to place in the shops for free publicity.

       In the beginning, he encountered a lot of rejections, and even couldn’t even meet the boss in many cases, but he didn’t have time to be depressed, so he immediately rushed to the next one, and continued to have the audacity to approach the owner to talk about business.

       At first, Sun Shiliang introduced him to a close friend who runs a hot pot restaurant and asked him to deliver wine there. Later, Chen Yuncheng expanded his scope and found some small shops and Chinese restaurants with good business, and gradually began to improve.

       It was just that it was too tiring. Even if Chen Yuncheng was driven out by his foster father to steal money when he was a child, he was not as tired as he was now. He had to work late into the night almost every day, sometimes not even having time to eat, and could only buy a loaf of bread on the side of the road to eat.

       In addition to this, there were all sorts of social engagements. Chen Yuncheng was not a smoker, but over time he found that there was no way to avoid it and he became addicted to smoking.

       Once Chen Yuncheng came back from a social event and drank too much. The taxi took him to the entrance of the trade market. He stumbled into the market alone, and when he reached the entrance of the shop, he couldn’t find the key, so he sat down on the ground against the roller shutter door.

       Chen Yuncheng raised his head and stared at the sky in a daze. The night sky of the city had neither stars nor moon, it was just pitch black, the night was thick and sticky, not bright at all.

       After a while, Guan Anlin heard the sound and opened the small door. He saw Chen Yuncheng sitting at the door, and froze for a moment as he asked, “Are you okay?” As he said that, he reached out to help Chen Yuncheng up from the ground, and took him inside.

       When Chen Yuncheng entered the room, the first thing he did was to run to the bathroom and vomit.

       Guan Anlin looked disgusted and opened the window to disperse the smell of alcohol, then lit a cigarette to make the air in the room even more polluted. He then leaned against the door and asked him, “Why are you so desperate?”

       Chen Yuncheng vomited enough, got up, rinsed his mouth and face with cold water, and slurred, “fvcking…”

       “Who is fvcking with you?” Guan Anlin thought he was swearing.

       “His mother wants to steal him from me. If I don’t make more money, I have no confidence. It was his mother who took him away before.”

       Guan Anlin originally wanted to ask who is this his mother was, Having heard about this before, he suddenly realized and asked, “You mean Ning Junyan?”

       Chen Yuncheng felt uncomfortable, so he took off his clothes and lay down on the bed.

       Guan Anlin finished his cigarette, stood by the bed and looked at him, saying, “You’re just that desperate for him, huh?”

       Chen Yuncheng opened his eyes and felt that the light was too bright, so he raised his arm to cover his eyes and said, “Turn off the light.”

       Guan Anlin walked to the door and turned off the lights in the room, leaving only the street lights shining in from the windows in the room.

       When Guan Anlin was climbing up to the upper bunk, Chen Yuncheng said, “I thought that if I had been willing to work hard earlier, Zhou Yan would not have killed someone.”

       Guan Anlin moved for a moment, then sharply turned around and sat on the edge of the top bunk bed, the iron bed shifting with his movements as he said, “All you see is Zhou Yan, and that wild man of yours.”

       Chen Yuncheng said in a vague voice, “Isn’t there still you? I have no relatives, only brothers left. You are all doing very well, I’m serious.”

       Guan Anlin lay face up on the bed and whispered, “Isn’t it nauseating?”

       The next morning, Guan Anlin woke up first. He got out of bed and saw that Chen Yuncheng was still sleeping soundly. He suddenly couldn’t bear to wake him up and closed the door gently as he went out alone.

       Chen Yuncheng didn’t get up until after ten o’clock, his hangover hadn’t passed, and he had a terrible headache, so he got up and took a shower and changed into clean clothes before coming out to the shop.

       He ate instant noodles for breakfast in the store. Chen Yuncheng watched the newly recruited driver last month and Shi Peng stocking up together, and Wu Xiaozhu helped them count with the stocking list.

       Because he spent too much time running outside, he wanted to leave Guan Anlin in the store. Seeing that Shi Peng had almost been able to do things properly, he went to hire another delivery driver, and after discussing with Sun Shiliang, he replaced the van with a pickup truck.

       He had been so busy for two or three months, the season has entered midsummer, and every day before noon, the disturbing cicadas began to chirp in the trees in front of the shop.

       The liquor that Chen Yuncheng promoted had opened up in the market, and the business at the tobacco shop was getting better and better.

       At this time, Guan Anlin was crouching at the door waiting for customers to come to him.

       When Chen Yuncheng walked up to him, he saw his gaze falling on the legs of a woman in a short skirt at the entrance of the shop across the street and couldn’t help but slap him on the head.

       Guan Anlin raised his hand to cover his head, “What?”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Come with me to the fair next week, I’ve applied for a booth.”

       Guan Anlin said, “Okay.”

       Chen Yuncheng was thinking about something, and after a while, he said, “Buy two suits.”

       Guan Anlin looked at him, “Are we going to wear them?”

       Chen Yuncheng nodded.

       Guan Anlin said, “I’ve never worn a suit, should I buy it from Taobao?”

       Chen Yuncheng thought for a while and said, “Let’s buy it at the mall.”

Notes:
Taobao ftw actually.. Taobao cheap and sometimes you can get a good quality from there…
