Chapter 10 – You will receive karma, sooner or later

Chapter 10 –  You will receive karma, sooner or later

 

Xing Zhongwan drove the car back to Qi’s villa on the outskirts. He couldn’t see clearly in the rain. Xing Zhongwan opened the door and got out of the car. He was soaked in rain just walking the short distance from the car to the door. Xing Zhongwan quickly went up to the third floor. As soon as he opened the door, a gust of rain blew into his face. Xing Zhongwan couldn’t help but yawn. The hanging white curtains were soaked and drenched. Xing Zhongwan held back the swear word that had reached the back of his mouth, walked over, and closed the window. He wiped the rain off his face before he had time to observe Qi Yun on the bed.

 

The person on the bed had his eyes closed and the quilt was soaked. Xing Zhongwan was inexplicably angry. “You are not mute, so why won’t you call for someone to come and close the window for you?”

 

There was only his own voice in the room, and the one on the bed didn’t respond as if they had already fallen asleep. Xing Zhongwan sighed and paced back and forth in the room. What the fvck is this?

 

Xing Zhongwan, who did you just offend!

 

Qi Yun’s eyes moved slightly, and his eyelashes were quivering. Xing Zhongwan took a deep breath. He was getting angry at a disabled person. He turned on the air conditioner and pulled off the quilt from Qi Yun’s body. It was fortunate that the clothes inside weren’t soaked, but…

 

Xing Zhongwan took one look at Qi Yun’s trousers, and that fire was lit up once again, “Third young master Qi, you could at least ask someone to get you the urinal pot, you… I’m going to… I”

 

Qi Yun’s eyes trembled more severely, but he didn’t even open his eyes, nor did he speak. Xing Zhongwan’s surrendered. Yes, I’m afraid of you, third young master, Master Qi!

 

Xing Zhongwan resigned to his fate and went to the bathroom to get a washbasin and towel to wipe Qi Yun’s body and change his clothes. He went to the cabinet and took out a clean quilt. He also had to give him medicine. After he was done, more than an hour had passed.

 

Xing Zhongwan gasped, “You have not eaten either? I go out for a while, and you end up like this. You… I will get you something to eat.”

 

Xing Zhongwan ran downstairs and Qi Yun who was on the bed steadily opened his eyes. His body felt refreshed and the air conditioner was turned to a moderate temperature. There was still the scent of Xing Zhongwan’s body in the air, a very refreshing pine wood fragrance. Qi Yun blinked his eyes and his restless heart finally settled down after all afternoon.

 

After Xing Zhongwan left, Qi Yun briefly fell asleep and when he woke up, it was unusually quiet by his side. Qi Yun’s stomach was a little bloated, and he wanted to go to the toilet. With difficulty, he lowered his hand to get the urinal pot by the bed, but his weak body wouldn’t listen to him. For a long time, Qi Yun sweated profusely as his lower abdomen swelled. There were constant footsteps at the door of the room, as there was always someone outside. Qi Yun bit his molars and wanted to call someone. She seemed to have said that it took a lot of effort to change the sheets and quilts. He thought of how that person was so tired that she even fell asleep sitting next to him.

 

Qi Yun opened his mouth when the new caretakers’ voices suddenly came from the door.

 

“Hey, how long do you think the one in the house can live like a dead person?”

 

“It’s been so long, should we go in and see.” 

 

“Forget it, didn’t the housekeeper tell us to stop going in to look for trouble. The one inside can’t take care of himself. He’s going to be filthy, you’re willing to go in and take a look?” There was a roar of laughter.

 

“You said Miss Xing was really beautiful. Why did she come to serve such a useless person?”

 

“Hey, I heard that the two still have a marriage contract?”

 

“Oh it really a pity, I heard that the one inside’s ** is paralyzed. I bet that he won’t ever stand up again, even after they get married, it’ll just be like living as a widow, it really is a pity.”

 

“Hey, you need to talk less. Be careful, the one inside can hear you.”

 

“What’s the matter? What about the Qi family? Nowadays, there’s no one that doesn’t know that the most favored person in the Qi family is the fourth young master Qi and that the one inside there is a fart.”

 

“It’s a pity that Miss Xing… would be living with such a useless person for a lifetime.”

 

Qi Yun clenched the bed sheet tightly with both hands and closed his eyes. His shoulders trembled pitifully. A damp heat slowly spread from his lower half, and a familiar smell filled the whole room.

 

In the evening, the old housekeeper came to feed him but Qi Yun did not eat. The old housekeeper carried the bowl and went out without saying a word. Qi Yun’s face was facing out, towards the window. She has yet to return… 

 

It was raining and the wind was very strong. The cold rain hit Qi Yun’s face, Qi Yun opened his eyes indifferently. There was the sound of hurried footsteps outside his door, of doors and windows outside being closed. The sounds slowly became more sparse, but in the end no one opened his door.

 

Qi Yun faced the doorway and tried his best to support his neck, but the familiar voice still didn’t appear.

 

Did she already leave…

 

It’s a pity that the servant’s words echoed in Qi Yun’s mind.

 

Miss Xing was so beautiful but she had to take care of a cripple.

 

A useless cripple… Qi Yun’s mouth curled into a twisted arc. The strong wind dispelled the smell of the room, but it couldn’t hide the fact that Qi Yun was a cripple.

 

Qi Yun stretched out his hand and dropped them down heavily on his leg as he closed his eyes in despair.

 

If you leave, don’t come back again…

 

Xing Zhongwan spent a long time in the kitchen looking around. He cooked a small green vegetable dish and minced meat porridge. After seeing some pickled vegetables in the kitchen, he grabbed some to stir-fry.

 

In fact, judging from his looks, one wouldn’t be able to tell that he can cook at all. It was all thanks to his mother. Xing Zhongwan’s mother was bedridden for many years and Xing Zhong learned to cook for his mother in the kitchen at a young age. After his mother departed, Xing Zhongwan seldom entered the kitchen. He didn’t expect that it would be because of Qi Yun that he stepped into the kitchen again.

 

Xing Zhongwan looked at the hot porridge on the stove and waved the wooden spoon around gently. It was supposed to be a good night to roll in the sheets with the woman he fancied, but now he was standing in the kitchen cooking porridge. Annoyed, Xing Zhongwan almost flung the spoon in his hand into the pot.

 

Before leaving the country, his mother brought Xing Zhongwan to the Qi’s estate while carrying some pastries she made by herself. His mother was a wise man who wanted to see Mrs. Qi before leaving. But how would the Qi family be so easy to enter, not to mention seeing Qi Zongcheng’s wife. He and his mother were stopped at the Qi family’s gate. The guards of the Qi family looked at them like two dirty mice who dared to meet the Madam and didn’t even look at their identity.

 

His mother coughed every time the cold wind blew, Xing Zhongwan pulled his mother’s sleeves to persuade her to go home, but his mother refused, wanting to wait a little longer.

 

Xing Zhongwan trembled as he had to hold her hand as the wind howled, until a familiar-looking teenager came out from the side door of the Qi’s estate.

 

At the age of fifteen or sixteen, he appeared just like a fairy, not like a mortal at all, and walked towards them coolly.

 

“Grandma was not feeling well, so it’s not convenient for her to come out. Instead, I can relay your message for you.”

 

His mother smiled apologetically and handed the pastries in her hands to the teen, ” A small gift, I made it myself.”

 

After hesitating for a while, he took it, “Thank you, Madam.”

 

Little Xing Zhongwan’s nose was red from the cold. He looked at the beautiful sister right in front of him, the big sister seemed to grow taller and more beautiful.

 

Xing Zhongwan tugged at his small mouth foolishly as he looked at the teenager, the teenager turned his head displeasedly, “What are you looking at me for?”

 

Xing Zhongwan sniffed, “Sister, you’re so good-looking. After I’ve grown up. Will you marry me?”

 

His mother was shocked and hurriedly apologized, pulling Xing Zhongwan and leaving. Xing Zhongwan reluctantly turned his head and saw that the teenager threw the pastry made by his mother into the trash can near the entrance.

 

A burning smell rushed up Xing Zhongwan’s forehead, “Oh shit!”

 

Xing Zhongwan quickly turned off the fire, looked at the burning porridge, and couldn’t help but look up at the sky. Back then, he was so damn fascinated by the beauty. Turns out the pretty fairy-looking big sister was actually a cold, stinky ruthless man!

 

Xing Zhongwan carried the porridge upstairs and sat next to Qi Yun, “I just accidentally burnt it a little. I took out the top so it won’t taste too bad.”

 

He sat up with Qi Yun and started to feed him. During the meal, Qi Yun was very cooperative this time, and a bowl of porridge was finished in a short time. Xing Zhongwan looked at his watch, it was getting late. He was going to go back to his room to get a quilt and sleep on the floor, but as his butt left the chair, Qi Yun suddenly opened his mouth, “Where are you going?”

 

Xing Zhongwan paused on his feet, he stayed standing up without moving. He really saw a ghost1 an expression used to show extreme shock. Usually used after seeing something unusual or not very likely to happen today. Unexpectedly, Qi Yun took the initiative to talk to him today.

 

“I called them, but they won’t come in.”

 

After a pause, Qi Yun turned his face slightly, “I don’t want anyone to see my body.”

 

Xing Zhongwan thought for a long time before he came back to his senses, he was answering his previous questions.

 

Xing Zhongwan said, “Then why can I look at your body?”

 

Qi Yun’s neck turned red, followed by his ears. His thin and conspicuous Adam’s apple moved uneasily as he gulped down his saliva.

 

There was a moment of silence, and Xing Zhongwan felt that he had asked this question out of the blue.

 

He turned around to go out to get the quilt, when the corner of his clothes was suddenly caught. Xing Zhongwan turned around in confusion, Qi Yun, it never ends with you.

 

The person on the bed had his head lowered, and his clothes are so big that you can clearly see the prominent spine just below the back of husneck.

 

“Girls shouldn’t go out at night, it’s not safe.”

 

Xing Zhongwan was stunned. Girl!? Who? Which one? Where are there girls?

 

Looking back at Qi Yun’s neck, which was about to become ripened2 So red, that it looks like fruit when ripe… aka bright in colour , he finally understood the saying,  “You will receive karma, sooner or later”. Back then, that was rude of him to think of Qi Yun as a girl, but who made him look too beautiful? At fifteen or sixteen years of age, one’s sex maybe still be indistinguishable so he could still be forgiven for misunderstanding.

 

But with Laozi’s voice, and this physique, how can you mistake me for a woman!?

 

Xing Zhongwan felt depressed…

 


T/N: Er… it’s just a small misunderstanding waifie! Don’t worry, even when Qi Yun finds out you’re a man, he’ll stil love you, ‘cos gender doesn’t matter in true love… right? owo

 

Anyways, hope you guys enjoyed this chapter! On to the next one then~

Chapter 9 – Qi Yun, I am going to turn into a monk because of you!

Chapter 9 – Qi Yun, I am going to turn into a monk because of you!

 

Qi Yun knew that the Xing family wanted to send Xing Zhongjie to take care of him. He also knew Xing Zhongjie well, she was his former fiancee. When the old Xing family was still prosperous in the early years, there was no need to say more about the illustrious Xing family. Qi Yun’s grandfather wanted to win over the Xing family, he personally asked for Xing Zhongjie, hand in marriage.

 

Since he was a child, Qi Yun knew that he would have no control over whomst he married. His only thought about his future wife was for the exchange of interests. So when his grandfather asked him to marry Xing Zhongjie, Qi Yun didn’t think too much. Xing Zhongjie was just for him to keep up with appearances only.

 

He still had some vague recollections of Xing Zhongjie. It’s not that she wasn’t pretty. She was considered to be the best in the circle. Qi Yun just inexplicably didn’t like her. When they first met, there was a familiar look in her eyes. It was the kind of gaze filled with scrutiny. Calculating and working out how much one could gain and the best way to achieve and optimize such gain.

 

Qi Yun looked at her coldly. She was a very utilitarian woman. She loved her own appearance and loved the Qi family standing behind her even more.

 

It’s just that this marriage contract didn’t last long. After Master Xing’s death, the Xing family quickly declined, and the Xing family gradually lost its original power. When he came to divorce, Xing Zhongjie cried prettily and pitifully, even pulling at his sleeves so that he would not abandon her. Qi Yun looked down at his torn cuffs while thinking that these tears seemed a little fake. This woman’s somewhat clumsy acting skills were like a joke in Qi Yun’s eyes.

 

Sure enough, within a week of the two’s dissolution of their marriage, Xing Zhongjie was photographed being paired up in a speed-dating event. At that time, his grandfather had already found another “right” person for him.

 

So when Qi Yun knew that Xing Zhongjie was coming, he was full of disgust. It was inconceivable that a person like Xing Zhengping would send his only daughter to take care of him, unless he made some underhanded deal with the Qi family. 

 

Remembering Xing Zhongjie’s eyes full of desire for the inheritance, he really didn’t believe that she would take care of a cripple like himself.

 

It’s just that things are a little different from what he thought. Xing Zhongjie that came here was extremely quiet. It was so quiet that it was as if there was no such person in this house at all.

 

Until that day she poured him a glass of water. Even without listening to her voice, Qi Yun knew that this person was definitely not Xing Zhongjie.

 

The slightly deep voice was not like an ordinary woman’s, but the old housekeeper called her Miss Xing. He didn’t know that the Xing family actually had another daughter, but this person is definitely not Xing Zhongjie, then who was she?

 

Qi Yun recovered from his thoughts. There was no one in his room. Xing Zhongwan went back to change his clothes and he has not returned yet. Qi Yun, who was already used to being alone, suddenly felt a little lonely.

 

Scared by his own ridiculous thoughts, Qi Yun forced himself to draw out his thoughts. Why did the Xing family send this woman here? The Xing family must have made some kind of deal with the Qi family, and the person that had carried out the deal didn’t seem to be his grandfather. Qi Yun knew his grandfather’s personality too well. Once he’s determined that this person was useless, he won’t even have an ounce of care in his heart, then …was it his own mother?

 

Qi Yun was a little confused. His car accident was not an accident. Someone in the Qi family had wanted to harm him. Although his mother has lost all hope for him, she was still his son after all. She will not watch Qi Yun die, but it is absolutely inconceivable to think that she still wanted to take care of him herself. The old housekeeper was sent under her, but she left him hanging, only half-heartedly caring for him.

 

But his mother also wanted to keep her good reputation, and even if the eldest son was crippled, she had to act and maintain the image of a kind mother.

 

Qi Yun sneered. This was his relative, who had very close blood ties with him but was doing the cruelest thing in the world.

 

He thought of the woman who has been taking care of him these days. Her name was Wanwan, it is a nice name. She was quite tall and Qi Yun felt that she should not be much shorter than his previous self. She was very slender. Qi Yun inevitably touched her chest when she was supporting him. They were…flat…

 

A tall and slender woman called Wanwan…

 

Once again, Qi Yun was frightened by his own thoughts. What was he doing thinking about this? What did that woman have anything to do with him?

 

Qi Yun shut his eyes heavily, there was still the leftover sweetness of beef soup in his mouth, and her cooking was not bad…

 

Xing Zhongwan took a bath and changed his clothes. He felt really exhausted physically and mentally. He tossed the dirty clothes into the laundry basket and went downstairs to the kitchen to eat some leftover beef soup. Seeing that it was too late to take a nap, Xing Zhongwan decided to go out for a drive.

 

He went upstairs to change his clothes again before taking his car key and going out. The old housekeeper stood by the door and stared at him with a dull but sharp gaze. Xing Zhongwan whistled at her, “Staying in a happy mood is good for your health. Don’t keep a sullen face unless you want to get older quicker. Qi Yun should have already fallen asleep. Let me go out. It won’t violate our agreement.” 

 

The old housekeeper snorted coldly and went upstairs.

 

Xing Zhongwan didn’t want to say anything to her. He went out and got into his car and started the engine. Xing Zhongwan opened the window and lifted his head to look up at the windows on the third floor. The weather was very good today. The windows were open as the white curtains swayed with the wind. The wind blew and Xing Zhongwan thought it was funny, Xing Zhongwan ah, Xing Zhongwan, just when did you become such a fussy mother-in-law.

 

Once I step on the accelerator, I must go around town and let loose.

 

Xing Zhongwan went to the mall with the thick envelope in his hand. He won’t have to leave any unused, everything must be spent by today. An hour later, Xing Zhongwan’s hands were full carrying shopping bags and when he came out of the counter, he cast a wink at the young lady behind the counter, and she almost went weak in the knees.

 

Xing Zhongwan shook his cell phone. He didn’t know how many women’s contact information he had added during this time. He has been a vegetarian1 Doesn’t refer to plant-based diet. The ‘meat’ he hasn’t had for a long time refers to sex. for a long time since returning to China… He wondered if he could find someone to meet up with tonight.

 

Suddenly, the man who was paralyzed on the bed flashed across his mind. Xing Zhongwan thought that Qi Yun had survived so long without him, and it should be no problem not to go back all night.

 

Tossing shopping bags and humming all the way, he didn’t know how many men and women were watching him in secret. Xing Zhongwan had long gotten used to it. He knew how likable his own face was.

 

Xing Zhongwan booked a hotel, and found a woman who seemed decent from his phone contacts to meet up with.

 

Xing Zhongwan took a bath, wrapped his lower body in a bath towel, and opened a bottle of red wine. The water droplets slowly flowed down along the slender and white neck to his prominent chest, flowing through the beautifully shaped abdominal muscles before finally sliding down into the shadow of a bulge looming inside the bath towel.

 

The doorbell rang, and Xing Zhongwan stretched out his red tongue, tasted the red wine dripping from his lips, and made his move…

 

It’s just… despite everything being ready, and the mood was heavy. Xing Zhongwan was about to put his gun inside when thunder flashed by the floor-to-ceiling-high windows and the rain hit the glass heavily. Xing Zhongwan violently pushed aside the woman under him. Was the window in Qi Yun’s room open?

 

Xing Zhongwan got up and put on his clothes, and the woman under him pestered him with some dissatisfaction. Xing Zhongwan smiled at her but was a little bored in his heart. He took out a box from a shopping bag and threw it over. The woman opened it and her eyes were filled with surprise and disbelief. The watch inside was worth a few years of her salary.

 

Xing Zhongwan carried the shopping bags out of the room and did not forget to turn around before saying, “I have already paid for the room. Next time we have the opportunity, let’s meet up again, goodbye!” The woman fawned at Xing Zhongwan. Where else could I find such a good one-night stand?

 

Xing Zhongwan closed the door, the smile on his face disappeared, and stepped up the elevator. The window was very close to Qi Yun’s bed. He wondered if the old woman had closed the window.

 

Xing Zhongwan looked at himself in the elevator mirror and his eyes were filled with suppressed desire that screamed dissatisfaction. The scratch on his face had not faded either.

 

He cursed in a low voice, Qi Yun, I am going to turn into a monk because of you!

 


T/N: Hey, welcome back! I’ve decided to do a mass update as an apology for not updating in a while.

Poll #2?
Oh no, Xing Zhongwan waifie is angy, not to mention, pent-up again… Qi Yun is such a bad hubby…

What is he gonna do to relieve his anger and pent-up ’stress’?

A) Google up breathing exercises and sign up for online anger management courses or group counselling.

B) Punch his pillow and scream into it several times, pretending it is the third young master. (Qi Yun: Oh no, waifie don’t be so angry… it’s not good for the baby. // Xing Zhongwan: What baby?!)

C) Quickly leave this madhouse. Everyone’s calling him Miss Xing as though their young master’s blindness is an infectious disease. Quickly pack up before he himself also catch the disease.

D) Unzip. “Turn around.” (to Qi Yun //Qi Yun: !!! I thought I was the seme of this story??)

Chapter 8 – Turns out your name is Wanwan

Chapter 8 – Turns out your name is Wanwan

 

Xing Zhongwan is also a strange person. Although he was born in a wealthy circle, he had no good opinion of the people in that circle. When he and his mother were driven out by Xing Zhengping’s ploy, his grandfather had already passed away. Even among those socialite women that often saw her mother on the weekdays and were closer to her, no one came out to speak up for her. His mother didn’t want to leave the Xing family. Although Xing Zhongwan still didn’t understand why his mother was so persistent, what kind of nostalgia was there to have had about the Xing family that ate people up and did not leave even the bones.

 

Before being kicked out of the country, his mother fell ill. He doesn’t know what Xing Zhengping did but there was no established hospital that was willing to admit his mother. There was nowhere to go. The young Xing Zhongwan knelt at the entrance of the hospital with his mother in his arms, feeling at a loss.

 

He thought that maybe he and his mother would die in front of the hospital. But God made them a path and the kind-looking madam who appeared at his grandfather’s funeral helped him and his mother.

 

Qi Yun felt that he must have heard it wrong and turned his head blankly. His eyes could not see and he could only judge where the speaker was by the direction of his voice.

 

Xing Zhongwan sat upright, enduring the aches and pains all over, “Answer me first, are you able to control your urination or defecation?”

 

Qi Yun had a sullen look on his face and did not speak. Xing Zhongwan had expected this situation already. He was in no rush, slowly, he spoke.

 

“If you can control it, it will be easy. I will move into your room today. Call me if you need anything. If you can’t, then I have to put on the adult diapers for you. Every time you poop, I’ll have to change it right after, and that’ll really kill me.”

 

Xing Zhongwan said while observing Qi Yun’s expression. He found that his ears were a little red.

 

“You better tell me the truth, your skin is so blistered that it is really not suitable for wearing that stuff. “

 

Xing Zhongwan looked at Qi Yun quietly, he wasn’t going to press on, this kind of thing couldn’t be forced. After a long time, Qi Yun said, “There’s no need to wear it.”

 

His voice was hoarse and harsh, and Xing Zhongwan couldn’t help rubbing his ears.

 

“Then alright, you can rest easy and eat. If you need anything, I’ll be here.” 

 

I took a look around on Thursday and there really was a urinal pot.

 

After yawning, Xing Zhongwan picked up the bowl and started to feed him again. Qi Yun still had his mouth closed.

 

Xing Zhongwan said impatiently, “Are you still a kid? Please, I have been tossed 1 bothered by by you all night and haven’t slept a wink. I’m very tired right now. Can you eat it quickly and let me rest?”

 

Qi Yun’s eyes dropped down. Those long eyelashes fell on the pale skin, and it seemed even a gentle breeze could make his entire person float away.

 

Why did it feel like I’m bullying you? Xing Zhongwan was crying without tears, the one who should be crying and depressed should be me, no? 

 

Qi Yun opened his mouth and ate the beef soup. The sweet taste of beef spread in his mouth and his stomach became more comfortable. Even his heart was not as empty anymore.

 

After eating the porridge, Xing Zhongwan didn’t have much energy to clean up, so he casually put the bowl on the chair and blinked his eyes open for a bit.

 

Seeing that the person near him didn’t make a sound for a long time, Qi Yun turned his head in confusion. After a while, he heard the sound of deep breathing. Was he asleep?

 

Qi Yun turned his head, the sight beyond him was pitch black and his weak waist was sandwiched between the pillows he half-sat up on. It had been a long time since he had sat up for such a long time.

 

Did the person beside him not eat yet? Qi Yun was taken aback by his thoughts and couldn’t help coughing.

 

In a daze, Xing Zhongwan said, “If you want to go to the bathroom, remember to call me.”

 

After that, he went back to sleep.

 

Qi Yun’s ears were a little hot, he moved his upper body helplessly and finally looked in the direction of his breathing.

 

Xing Zhongwan had another dream. In the dream, the kind madam arranged for his mother to go to the hospital. The little Xing Zhongwan was still worried that they would implicate her and cause her trouble.

 

The madam touched his little head, “Such a sensible child. You can live with peace of mind, no one will come to trouble you.”

 

“Come Yun’er, take this little brother to go out and have fun.”

 

The youth beside the older lady walked towards Xing Zhongwan and held his hand. Xing Zhongwan raised his head and looked at him, “Big sister, you’re very beautiful.”

 

The young man frowned and threw away his hand. The madam beside him was a little unhappy, “Yun’er, you can’t be rude.” The madam smiled and said to Xing Zhongwan, “He has a bad temper, did he scare you?”

 

Xing Zhongwan shook his head. He just thinks that this elder sister is good-looking and has a nice name. Yun’er…did it not sound like a fairy’s name?

 

“Madam, when I grow up, I will marry a beautiful wife who is as beautiful as elder sister.”

 

The young man’s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and the madam burst out laughing.

 

After that day, Xing Zhongwan never saw the madam and the beautiful sister who stayed by his side. After his mother got better and was discharged from the hospital, she decided to go abroad. Before they left, his mother told him that in the future, if he had the opportunity, he must repay Madam Qi. But later, he told himself that people like them probably didn’t need any help from them.

 

“Wanwan, we received others’ kindness. Mom won’t have any chance to repay them, but I want you to remember who it was that saved us, mother and son’s lives.”

 

This was the only thing his mother thought about before she died, other than wanting to go back to the Xing family.

 

Xing Zhongwan was awakened by the sound of a heavy object falling. He opened his eyes to see that Qi Yun’s entire self had fallen onto the ground. Xing Zhongwan thought, mother, you really foresaw all this huh? Now your son is here to pick up the poop and clean the piss to return their kindness.

 

Xing Zhongwan got up and helped Qi Yun up, “What now? Didn’t I ask you to call me? Want to go to the bathroom?”

 

Qi Yun went stiff and his face turned pale. After he fell down, his elbow hurt really bad. He wanted to get the urinal pot beside the bed, but accidentally fell down after a moment of carelessness.

 

Xing Zhongwan helped him to the bed and grabbed the urine bottle. As he started to undo Qi Yun’s pants, Qi Yun turned his face away in embarrassment. Xing Zhongwan was speechless. We’re all grown men here, what are you shy about? Taking out Qi Yun’s ‘thing’, he took a look and the color looked pretty good.

 

Previously, Xing Zhongwan didn’t take a closer look. It was the afternoon when there was plenty of light, and even if Xing Zhongwan didn’t want to see it, he had no choice but to do so. He still couldn’t help thinking, Qi Yun definitely didn’t have any women before, but no matter how he thought about that cool and elusive exterior, he couldn’t imagine what he would be like in bed.

 

After waiting for a long time, he still didn’t see any pee come out of Qi Yun, and his face was flushed. Holding back an ounce of tolerance, Xing Zhongwan couldn’t help but ask, “Can’t pee?”

 

Qi Yun lowered his eyes and his forehead was slightly sweaty. Xing Zhongwan noticed it, Qi Yun would lower his eyes whenever he felt uncomfortable.

 

“Will it be better to stand up? I’ll help you walk to the bathroom.”

 

Qi Yun clenched his teeth, his face was getting redder.

 

Xing Zhongwan didn’t wait for him to answer and stooped down to help him stand up. Qi Yun’s two legs hung limply on the ground, it was of no use at all. Xing Zhongwan used a great amount of effort and dragged him to the bathroom. He then let the other lean on himself as he undid Qi Yun’s pants, and took out his **. “Relax.”

 

Qi Yun closed his eyes, his eyes were flushed and Xing Zhongwan was struggling, “Please hurry up, you’re very heavy.” After he let go of the thing in his hands, he rubbed Qi Yun’s lower abdomen. Qi Yun’s body shook a bit. Pitter patter went the discontinuous stream of pee as it  splashed all over Xing Zhongwan.

 

Xing Zhongwan watched his own trousers turn black. He pulled Qi Yun’s trousers up and dragged him back to the bed. Turning around, he wanted to go back and change his pants.

 

“Who are you?”

 

The man on the bed suddenly spoke, and Xing Zhongwan turned his head in surprise.

 

Qi Yun opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling blankly, “Are you not Xing Zhongjie? Who are you?”

 

Xing Zhongwan scratched his hair, circling around thousands of bends in his mind for some time, thinking about making up a name.

 

“Wan…” Xing Zhongwan thought for a long time, “Wan…” Wan who..?

 

“Wanwan?” Qi Yun repeated the name.

 

Xing Zhongwan: Ah!?

 

“So your name is Wanwan.”

 

Qi Yun’s hoarse voice hit Xing Zhongwan’s head like a brick, hey, no, the gentleman on the bed, just wait a minute.

 

This was the nickname that his mother would call him by. How could it sound so strange when it came out of Qi Yun’s mouth?

 

Xing Zhongwan wanted to explain himself but Qi Yun had already closed his eyes and stopped talking.

 

Xing Zhongwan felt something was wrong, Qi Yun, did you misunderstand something…

 


T/N: Owo Qi Yun, did you misunderstand something…?

What should Xing Zhongwan do next?

A) Keep quiet. He’ll only be here for awhile, then he’s leaving as soon as Qi Yun is up and running.

B) Laugh it off. (Menancingly and yes, in his real, bonafide male, super-deep, baritone, definitely not feminine voice)

C) Shout: “I’m a real, bonafide man!” and then proceed to grab Qi Yun’s hand and pull it towards a place that grows what a man can only have.

D) Stare at the poor blind, paralyzed man in disbelief and pity. Then proceed to have a long, hard  ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)  discussion with him about the differences between birds and bees, male and female and so on.

Chapter 7 – Qi Yun, I must have owe you a lot of money in my previous life!

Chapter 7 – Qi Yun, I must have owed you a lot of money in my previous life!

 

Xing Zhongwan took off his coat, went into the bathroom, took a clean towel and a wash basin filled with warm water, and walked to Qi Yun’s bed under the surprised eyes of the old housekeeper.

 

Xing Zhongwan was in a bad mood and didn’t feel like being polite with her, “If you don’t want to help, get out and close the door on your way too!”

 

Xing Zhongwan’s tone was terrible, and the old housekeeper’s face turned pale. After looking at him for a bit, she finally left and closed the door.

 

Xing Zhongwan took a deep breath and turned to take off Qi Yun’s pants. Unexpectedly, before Xing Zhongwan could start, Qi Yun’s thin pair of hands had already gripped his own waistband tightly.

 

Xing Zhongwan felt funny, “What are you doing? I don’t know why you thought of yourself as some virgin young maiden. Besides, I’ve already seen it before, what’s there to be embarrassed about?. Even I don’t feel the need to be disgusted by this, yet you feel disgusted by me?”

 

He grabbed Qi Yun’s hand, it was so cold that it was frightening. Qi Yun’s body was trembling slightly. His face turned sideways as his whole face went pale. Xing Zhongwan couldn’t see how humiliated he looked nor did he know what the other thought he was going to do with him.

 

“Qi Yun, you have to face the reality, you have driven away all the caregivers. Do you really want to lay in… this?. It’s normal for you to be unable to take care of yourself in your current situation, but you won’t let others touch you. That’s alright, you have some self-respect and I can understand it. But let me tell you the truth, what’s the use of your self-respect now? Will you just let your wound become infected again? People have to learn to lower their heads at the right time. Your excessive pride will not bring you any benefit. In the eyes of others, it’s just a needless struggle. Nothing more than a joke. “

 

Xing Zhongwan threw the towel in his hand into the basin, “What do you want to do, You can figure it out yourself!” “

 

Xing Zhongwan was so pissed off, and the unspeakable smell in the claustrophobic space was getting stronger and stronger.

 

Some time passed before Xing Zhongwan snorted coldly and got up. He wanted to leave. In the first place, he was not a good person. This was the breaking point, and he didn’t have the time to spend it with the bad-tempered cripple lying on the bed. It’s not a big deal if nothing’s going to change after he’s come all this way. Looks like he’ll just have to think of another way to solve that issue regarding his mother. He can’t afford to stay idle.

 

Xing Zhongwan thought he understood the other. Just as he was about to turn around, he suddenly saw Qi Yun remove his trembling hand. Xing Zhongwan was stunned, yes, he could not leave now.

 

Xing Zhongwan untied Qi Yun’s pants, replaced the soiled apparel, and wrung out the towel. Bit by bit, his lower body was wiped clean. During this time, Xing Zhongwan glanced up at Qi Yun who closed his eyes tightly. He could see blood stains from where he bit into his own lips. At this time, Xing Zhongwan did not feel the same anger as he did in the beginning. He also understood Qi Yun’s prideful self, how honorable his status actually was. He had been held in high esteem by many others ever since he was a child. Now, his crippled self only brought him humiliation.

 

Xing Zhongwan shouldn’t overdo it either, everyone has their own life and he really wasn’t going to bother too much with the other things.

 

After thoroughly cleaning Qi Yun, Xing Zhongwan applied medicine to him and opened the windows to allow for better ventilation. Some air freshener was also sprayed. After a while, the whole room felt more fresh.

 

Xing Zhongwan looked at Qi Yun. The man returned to his indifferent expression again, and his gaze was pointed straight to the ceiling.

 

“I’ll go downstairs to get something to eat. I will bring it to you later. Rest up.” Xing Zhongwan finished speaking and walked out of the bedroom.

 

The moment the door closed, Qi Yun’s eyes blinked, his eyeballs were slightly red.

 

When Qi Yun had just gotten injured, his body had not atrophied that much. Although there were wounds on his body after surgery, the young man’s body was still amazingly beautiful. 

 

In the beginning, the young nurses were very diligent in taking care of him and Qi Yun did not resist being touched by others as much as he did now.

 

Later, the nurses were slowly replaced by new ones. When these people touched his body, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Qi Yun became disgusted. Batch after batch, the nurses were changed and later the Qi family became more and more neglectful, and the quality of the nurses they hired became worse and worse. The discussions about Qi Yun’s body and the teasing that were supposedly kept in private didn’t go unheard. The ill will and disgust in their tone of voice made Qi Yun nauseous. He began to resist being touched by others, and the attitude of the caregivers towards him became worse and worse and situations like today often happen. It was common for him to lie on dirty sheets for days and no one would pay any mind. Most of the time, it would be the old housekeeper who came in to feed him. Then when the stench became unbearable, she would force the nurses to come in and clean up.

 

Qi Yun was like a piece of pork that had long spoilt after being turned over again and again by others. It wasn’t as though he had completely lost the ability to feel in his lower body. Qi Yun could feel the rough movements, and them wiping him down felt like they were scraping away at a dead fish.

 

Qi Yun is prideful, but Xing Zhongwan said he had to face reality. He accepted his reality long ago, from the moment the doctor deemed his legs and eyes useless. But the pride he grew up with made him want to retain a little bit of dignity.

 

Xing Zhongwan’s words just now broke that last bit of his dignity.

 

Xing Zhongwan changed his clothes and scrubbed him off with gentle movements. He heard the slight gasp of the people around him. It took a lot of effort to hoist and maneuver a person whose lower body is paralysed. He often hears complaints from the nurses. But Xing Zhongwan didn’t do that, and he cleaned him up without saying a word. Lying on the bed, Qi Yun felt the dirty air in the room dissipate little by little, and the air freshener smelling of sea salt filled the whole room. For the first time, Qi Yun felt respected.

 

Qi Yun stared at the ceiling, and he suddenly became a little curious about the person next to him.

 

Xing Zhongwan was cooking soup in the kitchen, and he only slept for a few hours in the morning so his head felt dizzy. After another physical exertion, Xing Zhongwan knew without a second thought that he must look very haggard. There must be dark circles around the eyes of his baby face now.

 

Xing Zhongwan felt that he was overstepping his boundaries and just looking for trouble.

 

The beefy scent wafted into the open and Xing Zhongwan took a sip. It didn’t taste too bad. He turned off the fire. The old housekeeper stood behind him and Xing Zhongwan was taken aback. “Is it a habit of yours to stand behind others and scare people?” The old housekeeper was calm, “I didn’t expect Miss Xing to really care about the third young master.”

 

Xing Zhongwan was also blunt, everyone is sensible, and there is no need to talk in circles.

 

“I don’t care. In any case, should I just watch him die? I have to protect myself. The Xing family sent me here just to make me a cannon fodder1 a pawn to be sacrificed or used by someone else to gain the upper hand . I’m not stupid. Old lady, you are here, I don’t know what sort of benefit you’ll get from being here but we’re here for the same reason, that we can’t watch the third young master Qi die. Since our purpose is the same, let’s go on playing our roles without interfering with each other. You are still the old housekeeper, and I am still Miss Xing.” 

 

The old housekeeper’s haggard face was expressionless, and there was some guard in her eyes. Xing Zhongwan filled a bowl of soup and waved it in front of her, “Relax, it’s not poisoned.” He snorted coldly, before turning to leave the room.

 

The old housekeeper’s face was livid, as she looked at Xing Zhongwan’s back, lost in thought.

 

Xing Zhongwan went upstairs carrying a bowl. He walked to Qi Yun’s bed and pulled out a chair.

 

“It’s beef soup today, I already tried it and it tastes okay.”

 

Xing Zhongwan bent over to help Qi Yun up, supporting his body upright with a pillow. This time Qi Yun didn’t resist. Xing Zhongwan breathed out a sigh of relief.

 

He scooped a spoonful of soup and placed it in front of Qi Yun’s mouth, Qi Yun opened his mouth and ate it. Xing Zhongwan felt that he would be able to take a quick nap today.

 

But… Qi Yun refused to eat after taking two mouthfuls.

 

Xing Zhongwan: …

 

Did it taste bad? That’s not right, it still tasted alright.

 

“Does it taste bad?” Xing Zhongwan couldn’t help asking.

 

After some time, Qi Yun turned his head away slightly.

 

Xing Zhongwan was surprised, “Why aren’t you eating?” 

 

The pin-shaped2 he’s so skinny, that his ribs and hip bones jut out while his stomach is concaved inwards… like a pin in a bowling alley… my poor baby 🙁 man held the sheets under him tightly with his hands. Xing Zhongwan was stunned, and suddenly a strange thought flashed into his mind.

 

“Are you afraid of eating too much because going to the bathroom would be inconvenient?”

 

Qi Yun’s face turned away a little, and his upper body was visibly shaking. This Qi Yun looked inexplicably fragile in Xing Zhongwan’s eyes.

 

Xing Zhongwan held his forehead, it seemed like he really owed something to the Qi family, no, to Qi Yun.

 

He scooped a spoonful of soup again, “It’s not a problem, I’ll help you!”


T/N: OWOWOW kind and nice waifie Xing Zhongwan is backkk!! Now, now Qi Yun… you better play nice and don’t scare away your prospective wife ‘cos no one else if as good as your Wanwan!

Chapter 6 – He's really f/cked now

Chapter 6- He’s really f/cked now!

 

Qi Yun was surprised. His heart, which he thought had withered up from despair, rippled a little in surprise. He originally thought that Xing Zhongwan would not come back again. He had already rejected this person twice. He thought that…he was now a useless cripple. In the past, others approached him because of his appearance and power. Now he was in a state of embarrassment and physically-incapable. Even I feel nauseous when I look at myself. Why was this person being nice to me over and over again? There was nothing in him that anyone could seek to gain.

 

He even said he looked down on me. Before, if anyone had dared to speak to him like this, there won’t even be any bones left of them to find.

 

The former third young master, Qi was not a good person, but the current third young master Qi has become a useless person. Strangely, Qi Yun’s heart was not as unsettled as before. Perhaps he felt that all this was too absurd. He didn’t understand why this person would treat him this way.

 

In fact, Qi Yun made too many presumptions. Xing Zhongwan’s thought process was very simple. Since he needed to stay with Qi Yun for a while, why not make him as seductive and as good-looking as he used to be. Who didn’t like beautiful things, it was better than facing a skeleton all day long. Plus, seeing a haughty person getting better with his own hands will give him a sense of accomplishment. His life here will also not be as boring.

 

Neither person could guess each other’s thoughts. The hand Xing Zhongwan had been holding out was sore. When he decided to give up and retract it, Qi Yun opened his mouth and swallowed the spoonful of porridge.

 

Xing Zhongwan smiled, “Isn’t this better? Don’t make it difficult for your own body, alright.”

 

Taking another bite, Qi Yun swallowed silently. It was undeniable that the porridge in this person’s hand was much better than what he had eaten before.

 

After feeding a few mouthfuls, Xing Zhongwan stopped, “Can you hold the bowl by yourself? Can you eat it on your own?”

 

Qi Yun was stunned. After a while, there was a lukewarm thing placed into his hand, it was a bowl. Qi Yun felt a little unsteady. He hadn’t held a bowl in a long time. He tried to put some force into it to pick it up, but his fingers didn’t listen to him. The bowl was turned over and the porridge all landed on the quilt.

 

There was a sense of self-hatred in Qi Yun, and the feeling of powerlessness in his heart was like his weak waist. Qi Yun was very angry, mad at why he was made to hold the bowl, and that he had lost face1 suffer a shameful loss on the exterior image in front of a stranger.

 

Realizing this, Qi Yun’s heart was startled. Face? 2 exterior image that he once took pride in  Did he still own such a thing?

 

There was no complaint or ridicule like he thought he might receive. Only the sound of footsteps entered his ears as the quilt on his body was lifted and replaced with a clean one.

 

After a period of hustling around, Xing Zhongwan filled another bowl of porridge that was kept warm by the rice cooker in the kitchen downstairs and returned to Qi Yun’s side. “It’s normal to have no strength after a long time. Your upper body isn’t useless. I’ll feed you first this time, then when you have the strength, you can hold the bowl and eat it yourself.”

 

Qi Yun whiffed the faintly fragrant porridge that was brought to his mouth as the doubts in his heart deepened. Just what could you stand to gain from me?

 

It was almost dawn when Xing Zhongwan returned to his room. He checked the time and dialed up a video call. The call was quickly connected, and there was a beautiful woman’s face on screen. Her face was really, really beautiful, but the words that came out of her mouth did not match her face at all.

 

“Laoxing3 like laozi, but with more specificity to Xing Zhongwan as it is literally Lao (adds seniority) + Xing (his name) , you finally took the initiative to contact me. When will you come back? Laoniang is close to dying from exhaustion. I am working with three people at once. I am not some cow4 hardworking animal, like sweatshop worker . I can’t bear this suffering. Come back quickly. Without Xing in my life, I’ll soon cry to death. “

 

Xing Zhongwan dug his ear, “Speak normally.”

 

The person in the video immediately sat up, and despite it being obviously a woman’s face, a deep voice much like a man’s spoke out instead.

 

“I said that if you’re now addicted to pretending to be Xing Zhongjie in the country, and don’t  come back soon, I tell you, just continuing to squeeze me up, overloading me with work like this, I am going to quit!”

 

 Xing Zhongwan lazily laid on the bed, “My mother’s grave hasn’t been returned yet. I have to wait until my mother’s affairs are finalized before I can leave. Plus, it seems like you can’t revert back to wearing men’s clothes now, you transvestite!”

 

Cheng Zhengzhe laughed coldly, “Is it your business? I’ll wear what I like to wear. Hey, it’s not as if you won’t be able to leave in the end right? What kind of joy can you even derive from waiting on that paralyzed third young master Qi?”

 

Xing Zhongwan touched his own face, “What?”

 

“You seem very happy.”

 

Xing Zhongwan rolled his eyes at him, “Just treat it as me doing good deeds and accumulating merit.”

 

Cheng Zhengzhe squinted at him, “As if I’ll believe that!”

 

Xing Zhongwan snorted, “Reality is too hard to bear and I choose to live the life that makes me happy. During this period of time, you work hard first. When I go back, I’ll reward you well, if you want any beauties, as long as you let me know, there’s none that this Xing Zhongwan can’t invite back.”

 

Cheng Zhengzhe bent his pinky with bright red nail polish and said happily, “It’s a promise!”

 

Xing Zhongwan hung up. It was now early morning, five o’clock, so he decided to lie down and sleep.

 

Xing Zhongwan had a dream in which he and his mother were standing at the door of Xing’s old house. His mother begged Xing Zhengping to let them in to allow them to see his grandfather for the last time. Xing Zhengping stood on the steps and looked at them coldly and told them to dream on. His mother was crying and trembling all over as she was holding him. Xing Zhongwan was still young at that time and didn’t understand what was going on. He was just in shock from seeing his mother’s own tears.

 

In a trance, someone stretched out his hand to support his mother, Xing Zhongwan looked up, his eyes could not open as if they were blinded by the sun. There was his very kind old grandmother in that blur.

 

A young man stayed by his side. The young Xing Zhongwan looked over and the boy’s appearance was vague. Just as he tried to squint, the boy’s face suddenly changed to Qi Yun’s. Then, the boy’s face suddenly withered quickly, turning into a bony face with only thin skin dr4p3d around it.

 

Xing Zhongwan suddenly opened his eyes. His back was wet and he was holding his forehead. How could he have such a dream? Just as he was thinking of getting up, there was a loud noise from outside the door, followed by the housekeeper’s endless cursing.

 

Xing Zhongwan frowned and got up. He put on his clothes and opened the door to see two servants still complaining loudly.

 

“He still takes himself for some sacred, precious thing, and won’t allow us to touch him. If it was not because he had money, who would want to touch him.”

 

“The bed is full of excrement and urine, yet he won’t let other’s clean it up. Does he think I want to do this?”

 

“That cripple’s temper is just too much! I’m not doing it anymore, whoever is willing to take care of him, go ahead and walk right in!”

 

The washbasin in his hand fell onto the ground heavily, and the two servants only took a quick glance at Xing Zhongwan before leaving. Although they didn’t understand why the old housekeeper insisted on calling him Miss Xing, despite him being a man, they understood right away by the way he dressed up that he wasn’t some ordinary person. They still didn’t know why he would choose to live with some cripple.

 

“Miss Xing, hurry up and leave too. This place really isn’t for anyone to hang around.”

 

Xing Zhongwan glared at them coldly and the two servants looked at each other before lowering their heads and headed out without speaking.

 

Xing Zhongwan raised his head and looked in the direction of the third floor. What is the one upstairs fussing about now! His mood was sour because he had just woken up. When he went to the third floor, Xing Zhongwan smelled an indescribable smell before even entering. Qi Yun’s quilt was thrown on the ground and his pants were half taken off. The person who was lying on the bed looked like a piece of paper. His chest violently heaving up and down, with his two pitifully pale and bony legs, his lower body was covered with excrement, making him look even more miserable.

 

Xing Zhongwan clutched his forehead. This person was really cripppled and still didn’t want to change his temper, so he can feel comfortable. Since the others were driven away, who will clean up now? The lifeless voice of the old housekeeper came from behind him, “Don’t worry Miss Xing, a new servant has already been sent for.”

 

Xing Zhongwan asked, “How long will it take before they arrive?” 

 

The old housekeeper was silent. Xing Zhongwan laughed angrily, “If there was no other servant, were you just going to let him lie down like this? In a pile of shit and urine?” 

 

The old housekeeper only smiled, “I have fulfilled my duty. If Miss Xing can’t overlook this, you can do it yourself.”

 

After speaking, the old housekeeper gleefully looked at Xing Zhongwan. Xing Zhongwan rubbed his aching head. The bad smell wafting between his nose made him want to act violently but when he looked back and saw the slightly trembling body on the bed, he realized that Qi Yun must have heard what the servant and the old housekeeper said just now.

 

Suddenly the shockingly handsome face flashed across his mind. Xing Zhongwan gnawed his teeth, he’s really fvcked now!

Chapter 20

       Li Zhenruo didn’t have great luck, but his luck wasn’t too bad either.

       For the next two days, the door of the archives room was closed and no one came to open it. By Monday, he was dying and could barely stand up.

       He was extremely hungry, and Li Zhenruo’s initial anger was washed away. But he also didn’t have the energy to think carefully, so he pictured pies for himself in his head. Later, he felt that it was meaningless, so he closed his eyes and went to sleep. If he was asleep, he won’t feel hungry.

       When he heard the footsteps of someone walking outside, Li Zhenruo came to his senses. He stood up and walked to the door, thinking if he should grab the door to attract people’s attention. At this time, he heard the sound of someone standing in front of the door with a key to open the door.

       Li Zhenruo immediately took two steps back, leaned back slightly, and made a gesture of preparation to sprint.

       When the door opened, he sprang out, and this time really put all his strength out.

       The person who opened the door was a woman in a white coat. Without warning, she saw a cat rushing past her feet. She screamed in fright and retreated back, and even fell to the ground.

       Li Zhenruo was not in the mood to pity her at this time, so he ran to the stairwell with all his might, and then ran down.

       He ran out of the door of the appraisal office, and Li Zhenruo felt that the energy accumulated in his body was instantly drained. He was chased away by the security uncle at the gate he had not seen for a long time, and his energy was all spent when he reached the side of the road.

       It was still too early at this time, so he probably won’t be able to get a meal in the cafeteria.

       He stood on the side of the street, he glanced left and right blankly. If there was a mirror at this time, he would probably be frightened by himself. The fur on his whole body was dirty and messy and has lost its lustre. His face was also dirty with two long tear marks under the eyes.

       A few steps ahead, a mother was squatting in front of a small child on the street to wipe his hands. Besides them, there was a torn ham sausage that fell on the ground.

       The child wanted to squat down to pick it up, but was pulled by his mother and said, “Don’t pick it up, you can’t eat it if it falls on the ground.”

       When Li Zhenruo heard the words, he took two steps forward to smell the ham close to his nose.

       The mother said quickly, “Quick, give it to this cat to eat. Don’t eat it.”

       Li Zhenruo looked up at them.

       The child looked at Li Zhenruo and said, “Here, for you.”

       If it was the usual situation, Li Zhenruo certainly would not even consider eating these things. What’s the difference between this and rummaging over a trash can? But now he is really hungry, so hungry that his brain stops functioning.

       The cheap ham gave off an attractive fragrance, and he couldn’t help sticking out his tongue to lick it.

       The mother then pulled her son and said, “Look, the cat ate it. Let’s get going, and mommy will buy you other food.”

       After she said that, the mother left with her son.

       Li Zhenruo ate the ham sausage bit by bit and swallowed it quickly, ignoring the people around that were looking at him.

       Suddenly, Li Zhenruo stopped when he noticed several people passing by him. He looked up and saw that it was three young boys, possibly students from the university across the street.

       One of the boys pointed at him and said, “Look, is this the cat?”

       Another said, “It seems so. A few days ago, I saw it strolling around the entrance of the cafeteria every day, but I haven’t seen it in the past two days.”

       The third said, “Grab it?”

       The first one said, “Just catch it like this? We might as well buy something to lure it over.”

       The second one said, “Look, it’s about to finish the ham, be careful it runs away.”

       The third said, “It’s so troublesome, just go and catch it.”

       The first boy said, “Will this cat scratch people?” and he approached Li Zhenruo cautiously.

       Li Zhenruo listened to all their words. Seeing that there was only half of the ham sausage left, but the three boys were already approaching him, he had no choice but to give it up, turned around and rushed into the grass next to him.

       The three boys shouted, “Grab it!”

       Li Zhenruo felt that he was still a little weak in his limbs. Although he tried his best, he couldn’t run fast because he was so hungry. He could always hear the footsteps of the three people chasing him behind him.

       Although he didn’t know why they were catching him, Li Zhenruo didn’t intend to be arrested by a stranger like this.

       He ran for a while, and when he saw an alley next to him, he turned a corner and ran in.

       The messy footsteps behind him also chased in.

       Li Zhenruo saw two oil tanks placed against the wall in front. One to accelerate the jump, and then the other to jump to the surrounding wall.

       He was surprised that he had been hungry for two days but still had such explosive energy. It reminded him of watching the animal world that talked about cheetahs. After running with all their strength, if they didn’t catch prey, they probably won’t have the chance to run next time1Cheetahs usually become exhausted after chasing, and have to rest for quite a while. For more info about cheetah.. He felt that this was probably his last run.

       Li Zhenruo stopped and panted hard. He turned his head and saw only two boys chasing in. They stopped helplessly when they saw him running up the wall.

       “What to do?” The two of them discussed.

       Li Zhenruo saw that they seemed to be out of options, so he plopped down to take a breath.

       The two boys were discussing whether to climb up and arrest him.

       One of them said, “You climb up and it runs away. What’s the point?”

       Li Zhenruo panted and said, You guys still have some brains. He turned his head to look at the fence and planned to jump down and leave. At this moment, he felt a gust of wind and realized that he had been paying too much attention to this side. He didn’t realize that a boy was closing after him from the fence. At this time, the boy picked up a long pole from nowhere and swept it towards him.

       Li Zhenruo was hit on the butt with a pole and stood up unsteadily, and then was swept on his leg by a pole again. This time, he couldn’t hold it any longer and fell to the side.

       If he hadn’t been so hungry to the point he couldn’t run and concentrate, would he have been pushed to this point by the three hairy boys?

       Li Zhenruo felt resentful in his heart, but his body had already fallen uncontrollably and fell to the ground. This time, he fell with a thud, and his internal organs were almost displaced, but he no longer had the strength to stand up.

       Two boys gathered around, and one of them said nervously, “Not dead, right?”

       “It’s not dead,” said another. “Its stomach is still moving. Hold it down so that it doesn’t run away.”

       At this moment, the boy who swept him with a long pole on the other side of the fence came around and said, “Call quickly.”

       The second boy said, “Knock it off! Take him to the veterinary hospital to see if he has any injuries. I’m afraid that if something happens, the other party will want us to pay for it.”

       The other two boys were stunned.

       One of them said, “What if he was seriously injured?”

       The boy said, “What can we do? Bring it to a doctor if it’s not expensive, and throw it away if it’s too expensive.” He thought about it and felt pity towards the cat, and said, “Find the public phone to call its owner and tell him where it is and let him pick it up by himself. We did our best.”

       They found a woven bag to put Li Zhenruo in and took him to a nearby pet hospital.

       The pain at the beginning slowly dissipated, but Li Zhenruo still had no strength to get up. He was already hungry, and he just ran with all his strength for a while just now. At this time, he really had no strength at all.

       In the veterinary hospital, Li Zhenruo was tossed and turned by the doctor for a full-body examination. The fall just now did not wreck his internal organs, which means that he was just malnourished and needed an infusion.

       Li Zhenruo really didn’t expect that he would be malnourished after being hungry for two or three days.

       Covered with dirty and messy fur, he was placed on the examination table by the doctor, who tied all his hands and feet to immobilize him and then gave him an infusion.

       The three boys saw that he was not injured, and he just had some physical problems caused by wandering. After some discussion, they went out to make a phone call.

       Li Zhenruo kept his eyes closed, but he knew who they were calling. His master, who was still thinking about finding him back now, must be Li Zhenran, and not Yu Bingwei.

       He didn’t refuse to see Li Zhenran. He also needed to go back to the Li family now, but he really didn’t want to be sterilized. In the end, what should he do?

       About half an hour later, Li Zhenruo fell asleep after the infusion. He heard the door of the pet hospital being pushed open with some force, and someone walked in with calm footsteps.

       Li Zhenran’s presence was too strong, even Li Zhenruo who had no strength was forced to open his eyes by his powerful presence.

       When he opened his eyes, he saw that Li Zhenran had walked to his side, and Hua Yibang was following behind Li Zhenran.

       Both of them looked like a gentleman in suits, ties and shirts. They probably just rushed over from the company.

       Li Zhenran saw that Li Zhenruo’s face was not looking good.

       Li Zhenruo knew that Li Zhenran must be very angry with the fact that he had slipped away. However at this time, he was lying on his deathbed, and it wouldn’t be easy for Li Zhenran to get angry with him.

       So he tried his best to make himself look more even like he was done for.

       Li Zhenran called the doctor, asked about Li Zhenruo’s condition, and asked for a more detailed full body examination.

       As for those three boys, Li Zhenran asked Hua Yibang to go and give them money.

       Li Zhenruo thought in his heart that the three boys didn’t show any mercy to him, and it was really not worth it to give them so much money. But at this time he just raised his head, gave Li Zhenran a silent glance and plopped down.

       The room where the examination table was located was surrounded by glass walls. He had already seen his current appearance from the reflection on the glass. He looked very really pitiful. No wonder Li Zhenran had a complicated expression and didn’t open his mouth to blame him.

       Li Zhenruo had an hour of infusion. Li Zhenran sat on the stool next to him and kept looking at him.

       At first, Li Zhenruo closed his eyes and fell asleep, then opened his eyes and saw that Li Zhenran kept staring at him without changing his movements. He suddenly felt a little sorry in his heart.

       Regardless of the relationship between Li Zhenran and Li Zhenran in the past, now that they have been together for so long, he really has some feelings of a pet towards their owners.

       Well, this kind of feeling was quite strange to say, but he was a cat. He was fed, bathed and groomed every day. Wasn’t it normal for him to have feelings for each other?

       However, when he saw Li Zhenran, he thought of Li Zhenzi, and Li Zhenruo felt slightly chilled, thinking that after he returned to Li’s house, he must consider the matter about Li Zhenzi.

Chapter 19

       As it turned out, Li Zhenruo’s decision was very wise. He stayed at the entrance of the university cafeteria for more than an hour, and countless girls who passed by took the initiative to feed him food, and most of them were meat.

       He thought of the cat food that he ate every day at Li’s house, but today, he had the opportunity to have such a meal with meat. Suddenly, he felt that the food in the school canteen had become delicious.

       He was so full that he couldn’t keep his pace, so Li Zhenruo found a shady lawn and took a nap for a while.

       In the end, before he woke up, he was driven away by a nearby stray cat.

       The cat was a male cat. The territory and the female cat here should belong to it. Li Zhenruo trespassed into its territory without permission, which was unforgivable in its view.

       Li Zhenruo has not degenerated to the point of fighting with a cat. He got up and left when the male cat threatened him. He shook off the grass on his body and went to see if he could get in the appraisal office.

       In the afternoon, Li Zhenruo was lucky enough to sneak in. He had been to this appraisal office once, but he did not know where the archive room where the appraisal information was recorded.

       He searched floor by floor and finally found the archive room on the sixth floor. It’s a pity that the anti-theft iron door of the archive room was locked, and there was no window above. With his ability as a half-assed cat, he definitely couldn’t break in.

       After he circled around the floor where the archive room was located twice, Li Zhenruo left reluctantly.

       When he went out from the gate of the appraisal office, Li Zhenruo was seen by the security guard again. The security guard picked up the long broom and pretended to chase after him. Li Zhenruo tucked his tail and ran away.

       For dinner, he still went to the school cafeteria door.

       Li Zhenruo even ate half a pan-fried small fish. The one who fed him the fish was a short, chubby girl with glasses. Li Zhenruo looked up at her only to think that she was as beautiful as a fairy.

       Although Li Zhenruo originally didn’t like to eat fish, now as a cat, his tongue probably loved the taste.

       This dinner was more filling than lunch. Since he turned into a cat, Li Zhenruo hadn’t tried to eat so much meat for a long time. He began to like this place a little bit and thought that even if he couldn’t go back to Li’s house, he could stay at the school. It was nice to be a stray cat.

       In the evening, Li Zhenruo spent the night in the school. He found a clean corner, and after sniffing carefully for the presence of other cats. When there were none, he curled himself up.

       Well, although there was a lot to eat, at night he started to miss his warm and clean bed again. And after wandering outside for a day, his fur was already dirty and knotted, so he missed the clear bathwater, and the comfortable touch of Li Zhenran’s slender fingers stroking his fur to dried him after taking a shower.

       Therefore one cannot say that it’s only human, even a cat could always find it difficult to be satisfied with its own life.

       Li Zhenruo slept until the early next morning and went to the appraisal office. The security guards were sluggish in the morning, and he smoothly got in without being caught. He stayed until the people in the laboratory got off work in the afternoon, but he still found nothing.

       Li Zhenruo lingered in the neighbourhood for three or four days without giving up, drifted in during the day, looked for a place to sleep at the school at night, and pretended to be cute to eat all the food at the entrance of the cafeteria.

       He really lived a good life as a stray cat.

       However, today, he slowly walked to the sixth floor of the laboratory and found someone standing in front of the iron door of the archives using a key to open the door.

       He hid in the corner, and after the man opened the door and went in, he sneaked in behind him.

       In the beginning, he stood behind the man, and when he sat down in front of the computer, Li Zhenruo rushed to the file cabinet beside him.

       This place was the most convenient place for him as a cat. He could always be silent, and he could burst out strongly. If he didn’t want his prey to find out, he could hide his whereabouts well.

       There were rows of filing cabinets in the archives room, all of which were placed on the archives of the appraisal office.

       Li Zhenruo hid himself behind a row of file boxes and peeked at the man’s movements through the gap in the middle. With his excellent dynamic vision, he clearly captured the sequence of numbers when the person entered the password. He took a deep breath silently and continued to stare at him without blinking. He watched him log in to the file management system and remember his password.

       Right now was not the right time.

       Li Zhenruo memorized the two passwords firmly and lay down quietly. He had to wait until that person left.

       The man stayed in the archive room for about an hour and seemed to be entering some data. After the entry was over, he shut the computer down and left, locking the door firmly.

       Li Zhenruo still did not act rashly.

       He had been observing here for some days and knew that the archive room was likely to be unoccupied for a long time, and he couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. As he counted the days, today happened to be Friday, and the day after tomorrow would be a holiday. The next time this room would be opened might be next Monday, and if he was unlucky, it may be next Friday.

       As he thought of this, Li Zhenruo looked around and found that all the windows were locked. He jumped to the side of the windowsill and tried to unlock it from the inside, but found that it was nailed to death and could not be opened at all.

       By this time, Li Zhenruo was getting even more flustered.

       If he had to wait a week, would he starve to death right there? What if he had bad luck and no one came in for two or three weeks?

       Li Zhenruo began to blame himself for acting rashly and doing things without considering the consequences.

       But since he has come in, it’s too late to think about regretting it now. It’s better to finish what he had to do quickly, and if he’s lucky again, maybe someone would come to open the door this afternoon, and then he could slip away.

       Li Zhenruo jumped to the front of the computer desk, stretched out his paws and pressed the computer on.

       He still clearly remembers the power-on password and the password of the file system. His cat’s paws were inconvenient for typing and holding the mouse. At the same time, he has to be on guard that someone will come in. If someone came in and saw a cat using the computer at this time, they would probably think they were dreaming.

       However, this old machine was very slow to respond, and Li Zhenruo was a little impatient. While he waited for it to be turned on, he kept tapping on the computer desktop with his cat’s paw.

       As the computer finally turned on, he entered the file system and began to recall the time on the appraisal.

       The appearance of that appraisal was probably the biggest setback in his 23 years of living. He had read the document over and over again, and many details had been deeply imprinted in his mind.

       He entered the commission time to query, and after a while, he saw a file named Li Jianglin’s paternity test.

       At this moment, Li Zhenruo’s breathing began to become rapid, and his movements were a little flustered. He had to stop and take a few deep breaths, telling himself not to be nervous.

       The air was filled with the smell of old paper, and because the space was sealed off, it was particularly stuffy.

       Li Zhenruo tried to relax himself, clicked into the file, and saw a row of related materials on the left, including the authorization document, appraisal certificate, and other related documents.

       Among them, Li Zhenruo found a scanned copy of his ID card.

       He clicked the mouse with his paw, opened the scanned ID card, and saw an unexpected person on it.

       Li Zhenruo once inquired about the identity of this client. He knew that she was a young and beautiful woman. He always thought that this woman was probably a woman who had something to do with Li Jianglin because the sample submitted for inspection was from Li Jianglin’s semen. There are so many vague names in my head, but he hasn’t been able to rule them out one by one.

       And now, Li Zhenruo saw that the owner of the scanned ID card was Yue Zijia.

       The beautiful young woman matched the information he obtained before. As he was staring at Yue Zijia’s picture, a name popped into Li Zhenruo’s head. And now he seems to grit his teeth when he pronounces this name. It was Li Zhenzi.

       After he saw this, the other documents he clicked were just meaningless information.

       Both the appraisal office and the authorization document used pseudonyms, only this scanned ID card shows the client’s information, which must be the regulations of the appraisal office, and it was absolutely confidential information.

       Li Zhenruo quickly shut down the system, then turned off the computer, and jumped off the computer desk.

       He didn’t know how close Yue Zijia and Li Zhenzi were, but Li Zhenzi had to tease a woman when he saw them, so the relationship between the two would not be easy.

       If Yue Zijia was Li Zhenzi’s lover, it would not be very difficult for Li Zhenzi to hand over his blood sample to Yue Zijia for identification, because Li Zhenzi might not want people around him, such as Su Yao to do it. He didn’t want to involve himself in it, so he found someone who couldn’t be easily linked to him and trusted them to do it.

       As for whether there was anything between Li Jianglin and Yue Zijia, Li Zhenruo naturally couldn’t know now, but it was really not surprising. Yue Zijia’s current situation was hard to describe. She was the social flower of the upper class. If she and Li Jianglin were both willing to do it, it would not be considered a disadvantage.

       As he thought of this, Li Zhenruo felt that his suspicion of Li Zhenzi was instantly magnified.

       He plopped down quietly behind the door to calm himself down a bit because he might have to spend a long period of time in the confined area.

       But he couldn’t calm down his mind no matter what. Maybe he could think carefully about it when he calmed down in the future, but at this moment, what Li Zhenruo was thinking was all about how to bring Li Zhenzi to the ground.

       Li Zhenruo slowly closed his eyes.

       To be honest, he was angry at first, but now Li Zhenruo felt a little sad.

       Although he and Li Zhenzi had a bad relationship since they were young, and they fought in front of Li Jianglin for some trivial matters, deep down, he still felt that Li Zhenzi was his brother, not only Li Zhenzi, but Li Zhenran, and Li Zhentai, they are all his older brothers. Even if they were not from the same mother, shouldn’t an older brother protect his younger brother and stand up when his younger brother is in danger?

       But Li Zhenzi was so impatient. After knowing his identity, he did not hesitate to reveal it to Li Jianglin, and in such a decisive way.

       Li Zhenruo lowered his head and placed his round chin on a pair of fleshy claws.
