Chapter 48

       Li Zhenruo snored loudly in his sleep and didn’t wake up until dawn the next day.

       When he woke up, he still felt a throbbing pain in his head, which was simply the reaction after a hangover. It was just strange since he didn’t get so drunk last night, so why was the physiological reaction so strong today.

       It was already bright outside, Li Zhenruo opened his eyes and found that Li Zhenran was no longer lying on the bed. He raised his hand to cover his head but found that it was still a cat’s paw, so he used two cat’s paws to cover his face together.

       Li Zhenran went to the bathroom, and Li Zhenruo could hear the sound of water coming from inside.

       Li Zhenruo turned over, stretched his limbs and stretched his waist. At the same time, he felt the spiritual energy rushing to all the limbs and bones, the fluff faded, and the bones and skin stretched. It’s just that he felt a little bit of a blockage in the process. It was not obvious that he was drunk last night. Now that he was sober, the feeling of the spiritual power being blocked was particularly clear.

       He felt a little baffled. He tilted his head and moved his limbs and fingers, but he didn’t feel anything wrong.

       After a while, Li Zhenran opened the door of the bathroom and came out. As he saw the young man lying naked on the bed, he couldn’t help but stop in his tracks.

       Li Zhenruo felt that his reaction was a little strange. He rubbed his eyes and looked at him, and said, “What?”

       Li Zhenran stood there looking at him and asked, “You don’t think there’s anything wrong with you?”

       “What’s wrong?” Li Zhenruo was puzzled.

       Li Zhenran pointed at the top of his head.

       Li Zhenruo was stunned for a moment, then showed a surprised look, and said, “No way?” As he said that, he reached out to touch the top of his head, and surprisingly he once again felt the pair of fluffy ears.

       Not just the ears, he immediately reached out and touched the back of his butt. Unsurprisingly, he touched the tail.

       “What’s going on?” Li Zhenruo’s whole body was frozen.

       Li Zhenran was quite calm, “How do I know what’s going on?”

       Li Zhenruo jumped up from the bed and ran towards the bathroom with bare feet. He tried looking in the mirror, but when he passed by Li Zhenran, his tail was grabbed by Li Zhenran.

       Usually, cats were usually sensitive to their tails, Now there was such a piece of things in the body, it made him unexpectedly more sensitive.

       He hurriedly reached out to grab his own tail, “What is it?”

       Li Zhenran didn’t let go after he grabbed it, and he pulled it back forcibly.

       Li Zhenruo was so big now, and he was not as light as a kitten. Li Zhenran grabbed his tail and pulled it, but he couldn’t be dragged over, and it hurts. He frowned and said, “Let go!”

       Of course, Li Zhenran was not so talkative and dragged his tail to the side of the bed.

       Li Zhenruo was in pain from being pulled and didn’t dare to struggle, so he could only walk over with his strength and was pushed down on the bed.

       Li Zhenran was half-kneeling by the bed, grabbing Li Zhenruo’s tail and scratching at the base of his thigh.

       Li Zhenruo clamped her legs all of a sudden, and said in horror, “What kind of immoral behaviour are you playing in the early morning?”

       Li Zhenran said confidently, “You’re all cat ears and tails early in the morning but you won’t allow me to play a little erotic game?”

       Li Zhenruo was stunned by his shamelessness and said, “It’s not like I did it on purpose.”

       Li Zhenran grabbed his tail, scratched the inside of his legs with the tip of his tail, and at the same time leaned over and bit his cat ears.

       When Li Zhenruo was bitten by him, half of his body suddenly softened, and he lost the strength to resist.

       After being tossed by Li Zhenran early in the morning, the hair on Li Zhenruo’s tail turned up in a mess. He grabbed his tail and licked it subconsciously, but after he licked the cat hair, he spat it out quickly.

       Li Zhenran went to take a shower again, and while getting dressed, he asked him, “Do you want to go out?”

       Li Zhenruo was a little anxious, “How do I go out like this?”

       Li Zhenran looked at him without saying a word.

       Li Zhenruo tried hard several times, but he still couldn’t get his ears and tail back to how it was. He was very annoyed. The important point was that this way he would have no way to go out and meet people.

       When he saw that Li Zhenruo didn’t respond, Li Zhenran packed up and went downstairs to eat.

       Li Zhenruo stopped him quickly, “Ran ge, will you take me to Doctor Feng’s place?”

       Li Zhenran asked knowingly, “What are you going to do?”

       Li Zhenruo glanced at him, “Of course, I went to ask how to return the ears and tail.”

       “Why return it?” Li Zhenran said and walked to him, reached out and rubbed the top of his head, and rubbed his two soft ears until Li Zhenruo blushed, and then continued, “This looks so good.”

       Li Zhenruo slapped his hand away, “Stop it, if this goes on I really can’t see anyone.”

       As he heard this, Li Zhenran actually bent down and looked directly into his eyes and said, “Then don’t go out to meet people. It’s enough for me to look after you alone.”

       When he heard this sentence, Li Zhenruo suddenly felt that his heart skipped a beat. He opened his eyes and watched Li Zhenran without saying anything for a while.

       Li Zhenran pinched his ears.

       Li Zhenruo suddenly came back to his senses and said, “No! I have to restore the form. Can you take me to see Feng Junyuan? Please?”

       Li Zhenran let go of his hand and said, “Let’s go.”

       After breakfast, Li Zhenran personally drove his cat to go out, because he always took his cat to work, the family was not surprised, at most they thought he had an odd hobby.

       Li Zhenruo sat in the passenger seat and asked Li Zhenran to fasten his seat belt. Because he didn’t dare to appear outside as a human, he still maintained the appearance of a cat. He was silent all the way and looked a little melancholy.

       It was just that the seat belt was not in the right position. When Li Zhenran stepped on the brakes in panic, the seat belt slipped onto Li Zhenruo’s face several times.

       While waiting for the red light at the intersection, the traffic police stood in front of their car, turned around and saw a cat sitting on the passenger seat, and was stunned for a moment. He came over and knocked on the window and asked Li Zhenran to pay attention to driving safety.

       It goes without saying that Li Zhenran went out late today, but he deliberately took a detour to take Li Zhenruo to the hospital. When waiting for Feng Junyuan to pick him up, he calmly said, “I was late today.”

       However, Li Zhenruo felt like complaining when he heard what he said. He couldn’t help gnashing his teeth and thought: isn’t it because you were in heat early in the morning?

       But now with his appearance like there was no way to quarrel with Li Zhenran.

       Soon, Feng Junyuan came down from the surgical building, somewhat baffled, “What happened?”

       Li Zhenran handed the cat to him and said, “He will tell you himself. I have something to go first.”

       “Oh,” Feng Junyuan caught the cat, and Li Zhenran turned around and left.

       Feng Junyuan lowered his head and asked, “What’s the matter?”

       The young and handsome doctor was talking to a cat, and everyone who passed by couldn’t help but look over. Feng Junyuan himself quickly felt it was inappropriate, so he carried Li Zhenruo to a different place.

       This was a remote path behind the inpatient building, and there was no one nearby, but Li Zhenruo suddenly remembered one thing before transforming, that was, Li Zhenran threw him here and left, but did not even leave a piece of clothing for him.

       Although it was only Feng Junyuan watching him, he didn’t want to run naked. But Feng Junyuan didn’t understand the language of cats like Xia Hongshen. After thinking for a while, he used his paws in the mud on the lawn next to him. He drew a person, then pointed to himself.

       Feng Junyuan was very patient and said, “You said it was you?”

       Li Zhenruo nodded quickly, then drew a pair of ears on top of the little man’s head and a tail behind his buttocks.

       Feng Junyuan squatted beside him, looked puzzled for a while, then looked at Li Zhenruo, slightly surprised, “You mean you have a pair of cat ears?”

       Li Zhenruo nodded.

       Feng Junyuan opened his mouth slightly in surprise, and asked again, “Can’t you get rid of them?”

       Li Zhenruo shook his head.

       Feng Junyuan thought for a while, “That won’t work, I’ll take you to find them.”

       Of course, the ‘them’ he was talking about were Song Jun and Xia Hongshen.

       At this time, Xia Hongshen was teaching the students, and Feng Junyuan was merely taking some time out to go out, and he had to rush back for the wards rounds. He handed Li Zhenruo over to Song Jun and immediately returned to the hospital.

       Song Jun was also surprised to hear what Feng Junyuan said. He took Li Zhenruo to hide in Xia Hongshen’s office, locked the door, and said to Li Zhenruo, “Can you show me?”

       Li Zhenruo put himself in the corner of the sofa and turned his head to ignore him.

       Song Jun said, “I’ve seen a little demon with insufficient spiritual power when he first transformed into a state of incomplete transformation. Why don’t you show me what’s going on?”

       Li Zhenruo still doesn’t know what the identity of Song Jun and Feng Junyuan was, but Xia Hongshen was so powerful, and Song Jun has a close relationship with him. Li Zhenruo thought that he was probably not an ordinary person. In addition, after he heard what Song Jun just said, he loosened his mind, glanced at the closed office door and shrank in the corner of the sofa, stretching his limbs.

       Song Jun sat on the coffee table and looked at him without blinking. He saw the fat cat turn into a beautiful young man with a soft body. Although he was still squatting in the corner, he could clearly see the pair of cat ears on top of his head, not just cat ears, Song Jun also saw the cat’s tail behind his ass.

       “What’s going on?” Song Jun looked at him with wide eyes in surprise.

       Li Zhenruo wasn’t too bashful either, he simply sat down beside the sofa and said, “I drank a lot of alcohol last night, and then somehow my tail came out, and my ears couldn’t be retracted.”

       Song Jun reached out and pinched his ear, “Are you sober now?”

       Li Zhenruo fanned his ears and said, “I woke up early.”

       Song Jun showed a smile, “So cute!”

       Li Zhenruo rolled his eyes, “Senior brother, be serious. What the hell is going on here?”

       Song Jun looked at him with a smile, “Get up and turn around and I’ll take a look.”

       Li Zhenruo felt that Song Jun was having fun with himself. He got up and covered his lower body with his hands, turned around and asked Song Jun, “Is there any way to get these two things back?”

       Song Jun said, “I don’t know. You are a demon after all, and the way the aura works in my body is different. You may have to ask Senior Brother Xia to find out.”

       Li Zhenruo couldn’t help but ask him curiously, “Then what are you?”

       Song Jun hooked his fingers at him, and asked him to get closer before sticking to his ear and said, “I’ll tell you, I’m actually—”

       Before he finished speaking, the door of the office was kicked open from the outside, making a loud “bang”, which startled both Li Zhenruo and Song Jun.

       As he saw this scene, Xia Hongshen, who had just kicked the door, had some indescribable ambiguity in his eyes. His expression was ice cold, and asked, “What are you doing?”

       Song Jun hurriedly took a step back, “Senior Brother Xia…”

       Xia Hongshen pointed at Li Zhenruo, “Why aren’t you wearing any clothes? To seduce my man?”

       Song Jun quickly pulled Xia Hongshen and said, “Senior brother, you misunderstood, look at his ears and tail.”

       Xia Hongshen’s gaze fell on Li Zhenruo’s cat ears and tail. After examining it for a while, he asked Song Jun thoughtfully, “Do you like it?”

       Song Jun was taken aback for a moment, and hesitantly said, “It doesn’t seem so bad…”

       As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zhenruo saw a pair of black ears popping out from the top of Xia Hongshen’s head, belonging to the cat family. Then Xia Hongshen flicked his tail, rolled it to Song Jun’s waist and pulled him to his side, he said, “I have it too.”

       Song Jun was speechless for a while.

       Li Zhenruo interrupted their intimate moment and said, “Xia laoshi, can I ask you how I can retract my ears and tail?”

       Xia Hongshen looked over at him and said, “It’s good, keep it.”

       Li Zhenruo covered his face in pain, “Xia laoshi, stop joking.”

       Song Jun also said, “He looks very cute like this, but he can’t go out to meet people. Senior brother, please help him.”

       Xia Hongshen walked in front of him and pinched his ear.

       Li Zhenruo let out an “aiyo” and said, “Don’t pinch.”

       “What?” Xia Hongshen asked unhappily.

       Li Zhenruo said, “It’s uncomfortable.”

       The cat’s ears were really sensitive, and when Xia Hongshen pinched him, his whole body trembled.

       Xia Hongshen asked him, “How did it get like this?”

       Li Zhenruo answered, “Last night I drank too much like a madman, but I don’t know if it has something to do with drinking.”

       Song Jun interjected, “Mostly it is.”

       Xia Hongshen looked at him and pressed his palm on top of his head. After a while, Li Zhenruo felt a warm force pouring into his body, and then he could even clearly feel his ears and tail slowly retracting.

       He reached out and touched it, and found that the ear was really gone.

       Xia Hongshen withdrew his hand and said, “It’s best to not drink alcohol. You are not the master of your body, and you can’t control its spiritual power. Alcohol can easily make the spiritual power out of control. You can’t control it in the first place, so you can only try to avoid it in the future.”

       After speaking, Xia Hongshen retracted his ears and tail.

       Li Zhenruo looked a little envious. Although he was only a half-assed cat demon, he also felt that he was too useless and couldn’t do anything except transform.

       Song Jun next to him looked at him with a bit of pity in his eyes.

       Li Zhenruo felt even more envious. He said to Xia Hongshen, “Xia laoshi, do I have the means to cultivate?”

       Xia Hongshen answered, “Yes, it’s just that you need to endure loneliness and stay away from worldly affairs. Finding a place rich in spiritual energy can get twice the result with half the effort.”

       Li Zhenruo couldn’t help feeling a little sad when he heard the words, he said, “I still have revenge to avenge, and I can’t do it now.”

       Xia Hongshen did not speak.

       Song Jun glanced at Xia Hongshen, and said to Li Zhenruo, “Come back when you have taken revenge, the future is long.”

       When he heard Song Jun’s words, Li Zhenruo suddenly thought of Li Zhenran and was a little confused about the future.

       He borrowed a set of clothes from Song Jun, dressed like a student and left the academic building. He walked along the school path, Li Zhenruo took out his mobile phone and called Feng Junyuan, saying that he was leaving first, and thanked Feng Junyuan.

       At this time, a tall and thin boy walked over from the opposite side. Li Zhenruo just hung up the phone and looked up and saw the boy’s appearance and was stunned.

       He had seen that boy once, the last time he and Li Zhenran went to eat crayfish on the roadside, and he still remembered the very strong physical reaction at that time.

       However, at this moment, Li Zhenruo couldn’t restrain his heartbeat which was beating fast. He stopped and stared blankly at the boy approaching.

       The boy kept looking at him with a puzzled look on his face, until he stopped in front of Li Zhenruo, “You—” he wanted to say something.

       “Let’s go!” At this moment, a girl suddenly ran over and jumped on the boy’s back, pulling his arm to leave.

       So the boy was pulled away before he could finish his words, leaving Li Zhenruo standing there for a while inexplicably, before he continued to walk outside the school.

       Li Zhenruo stood at the school gate, and he was a little dazed. As if there were a lot of things to do but he didn’t have a clear idea of ​​what he should do first.

       He stood alone for two minutes and suddenly felt that there was a familiar person across the street.

       The man was wearing tight jeans and a black shirt, with a pair of large sunglasses on his face, and his dyed yellow hair tied up behind his head. It was clearly Zhu Kai.

       The pedestrian crossing in front of him just turned on the green light, and Li Zhenruo ran in the direction of Zhu Kai without thinking about it.

       Zhu Kai soon noticed that someone was running in his direction. He turned his head and saw that it was the young man who attended the wedding with Li Zhenran last time. He frowned slightly and then turned around and ran.

       Li Zhenruo ran and chased after him, hating himself for having two fewer legs and not being able to turn into a cat on the street.

       Zhu Kai ran for a while, but Li Zhenruo was in hot pursuit behind him. The two ran two streets one after the other. Zhu Kai finally couldn’t bear it and stopped on the side of the road. He was holding on to a telephone pole and gasping for breath.

       Li Zhenruo chased in front of him and stopped to look at him. He was in better condition than him, but he was also gasping for breath.

       Zhu Kai said, “Are you crazy? Why are you chasing me?”

       Li Zhenruo said, “Then what are you running for?”

       Zhu Kai said, “You chase me, why shouldn’t I run?”

       Li Zhenruo panted and looked at him, leaning his back against the wall.

       Zhu Kai raised his hand and scratched his hair, “Aren’t you Li Zhenran’s lovers? What do you want from me?”

       Li Zhenruo said, “Do you know that the Li family is looking for you?”

       Zhu Kai surprisingly smiled, “Of course I know. You have to find a place to spread the fire for such a big thing. Isn’t Li Zhenzi miserable?”

       Li Zhenruo didn’t answer, just asked him, “Why did you make the photo public on that occasion?”

       Zhu Kai looked him up and down, “What’s your business? Who are you to the Li family?”

       Li Zhenruo did not answer him.

       After a while, Zhu Kai said, “Aren’t you just Li Zhenran’s lover? What? Do you still expect Li Zhenran to marry you into the Li family as the young lady of the house? You expect too much!”

       Li Zhenruo was accustomed to the way Zhu Kai spoke, and did not get angry with him, but asked, “What makes you think I have an affair with Li Zhenran?”

       Zhu Kai said, “I haven’t seen Li Zhenran with any woman for more than 20 years. If you are not his lover, then he must be impotent.”

       Li Zhenruo thought about it and felt that what Zhu Kai said was very reasonable, and asked him, “Are you going to tell Li Jianglin?”

       Zhu Kai squinted at him, “Why should I tell Li Jianglin? What do I care about your business?”

       Li Zhenruo thought that whether he told Li Jianglin or not, Li Zhenran didn’t care anyway, and so he didn’t need to care.

       Zhu Kai took a moment to catch his breath, stood up straight and turned around to leave.

       “Zhu Kai,” Li Zhenruo suddenly stopped him, “Why are you doing this? Are you not going to say anything now that the Li family is in confusion? Does it means nothing to you?”

       Zhu Kai stopped when he heard the words. He looked at Li Zhenruo for a long time and beckoned him to go over with his fingers. When Li Zhenruo approached, Zhu Kai leaned closer to his ear and whispered, “Because I know a secret, but I can’t tell you.”

       Li Zhenruo couldn’t help frowning.

       Then Zhu Kai “smooched” him on the face, turned around and ran away while Li Zhenruo was in a daze.

Chapter 34 – Can’t you like me a little too?

Chapter 34 – Can’t you like me a little too?

 

Chen Ying pushed Qi Yun into the room. Closing his eyes, Qi Yun then allowed him to walk out. After waiting for the other to walk away, Qi Yun opened his eyes and rubbed his aching forehead. His headaches have been getting worse recently. It seems that the surgery must be done as soon as possible.

 

Suddenly a pair of warm hands touched Qi Yun’s forehead. Qi Yun suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed the hand of the person who came, “Who are you?” 

 

The cold voice made the person behind Qi Yun pause for a moment while the severe pain in her hand made her cry out, “Third…Third young master …I…I, I…I’ll wait for you…To wash up…”

 

Qi Yun violently shook off the woman’s hand, “Go away!”

 

The woman’s frightened voice was unsteady, “Third young master, I…”

 

“Go away! If you make me say it again, you are going to leave the door sideways1Usually people walk upright. To leave side ways is like being carried out on an EMT stretcher. Not in a very good condition, I bet.!” 

 

The woman lowered her head and cried softly before walking out from the door in a panic, bumping into Xing Zhongwan who just came back. He raised his head and glanced at her red, tear-stained face.

 

Xing Zhongwan was confused and pointed in the direction the woman ran away, “What’s wrong with her?”

 

Qi Yun said with a dark face, “She said she wanted to bathe me!”

 

Xing Zhongwan was stunned, but he couldn’t help but start laughing, “Hahaha, that’s so lively, third young master. Can’t help that you’re too attractive.”

 

Qi Yun’s face became even worse, “You’re still smiling? Come here quickly. I want to take a shower.”

 

Xing Zhongwan smiled, closed the door, and went to the closet to get him a change of clothes, “I have something to tell you. I will fly back in two days as there are some things I have to do. I will come back when I am done.”

 

Qi Yun couldn’t react for a while, “You want to leave?”

 

Xing Zhongwan put his clothes on the bed, “Yes, it will be very soon, and I will be back as soon as I can.”

 

Qi Yun’s voice was a little muffled, “Can you tell me what’s going on?”

 

Xing Zhongwan walked up to him and squatted down, “I want to take my mother’s ashes back.” Qi Yun was startled for a bit, but then the expression on his face relaxed, “Do you need my help? I mean, it’s almost Qingming 2An annual day for grave-sweeping. We prepare a lot of food that the deceased liked. There must traditionally be a roast chicken, and chinese wine. We also burn paper money (hell currency) and pray to give our respects.and I also want to go to your mother’s place to pay my respects.”

 

Xing Zhongwan smiled, “No, I’ve already arranged everything.”

 

Qi Yun turned his head and said ok as he listened. He could see Xing Zhongwan’s refusal to bring him although he did not clearly say it in words. He did not want him to be involved in his family affairs, and therefore still did not accept Qi Yun fundamentally. Qi Yun gradually tightened his hands on both sides of the wheelchair. Xing Zhongwan saw him tense up his body and knew that he was not happy again so he patiently said to him,

 

“I’m very glad that you want to help me, but I want to solve my mother’s affairs on my own. Another thing, on the days when I’m not here, you have to let Chen Ying pay more attention and not let this kind of thing happen again. I don’t want that woman’s belly to get bigger when I come back.”

 

His joke made Qi Yun’s face turn dark instantly, “What do you think of me as, am I so… so…”

 

This inexplicably aggrieved tone made Xing Zhongwan laugh, “Oh, it’s not good to joke with you. Just look at you in a panic. Let’s go take a shower.” 

 

The bathroom was specially remodeled for Qi Yun. With Qi Yun now sitting stably. Xing Zhongwan took the bath lotion and applied it on him. Looking at the red patches on his body, he thought that they would turn dark again tomorrow.

 

“Don’t train too hard. Take it step by step. You can’t be impatient. The doctors say you’ve made great progress. And that’s amazing, Qi Yun.”

 

Qi Yun grabbed Xing Zhongwan’s hand holding the bath towel, “If I don’t hurry up, what should I do when you run away?” 

 

Xing Zhongwan was suddenly caught and the hand that was on his legs suddenly stopped moving. Qi Yun’s hair was wet and his lips were rosy as the crystalline water droplets ran down his face beautifully. It dribbled from his eyebrows down his blushing lips, along the bridge if his beautifully sculpted nose. Xing Zhongwan looked dumbfounded. When he realized it, he wanted to shake Qi Yun’s hand of, but he didn’t. Qi Yun kissed his lips as Xing Zhongwan looked at his turbid eyes. When he suddenly stopped responding, his lips were slightly opened so Qi Yun took advantage of it. His tongue nimbly penetrated Xing Zhongwan’s mouth and lightly licked the inside of his cool mouth. Xing Zhongwan’s felt like his entire body had been electrocuted. Qi Yun’s kiss was actually very amateurish and it faintly felt like a child who just tasted the forbidden fruit for the first time after cautiously approaching his sweetheart. When Qi Yun left Xing Zhongwan’s lips, a thin silver thread hung between those bright red lips. Xing Zhongwan asked in a daze, “What are you doing?”

 

Qi Yun held his face with both hands like he was holding treasure, “I’m kissing you, Wanwan, I like you, do you like me?”

 

As though there was thunder that suddenly hit the ground around them, Xing Zhongwan suddenly snapped out of it. He threw away the bath towel in his hand and wanted to leave but was pulled back by Qi Yun. But because his center of gravity was unstable, Xing Zhongwan fell into the bathtub with a splash. Xing Zhongwan said angrily, “Qi Yun, you are crazy!”

 

While speaking, Qi Yun had already sealed his lips and grabbed his hand to feel his already hardening crotch. As if had just been pricked with poison, Xing Zhongwan quickly retracted his hand but was held down by Qi Yun, who sucked Xing Zhongwan’s lips and tongue with a force that seemed like it was going to swallow him whole. Xing Zhongwan was afraid of hurting him so he didn’t dare to exert any force. The two of them were entangled in the bathtub and soaked all over. 

 

Xing Zhongwan sat astride Qi Yun’s waist. As Qi Yun’s hardened member rubbed at Xing Zhongwan, who was wearing thin sweatpants that were soaked, it was easy for a man to react when he was rubbed on his sensitive parts in the same way when he is not wearing pants. Xing Zhongwan became hard. Qi Yun stuck his tongue deep into Xing Zhongwan’s throat, holding his firm buttocks tightly with both hands. Xing Zhongwan thrusted up hard against his abdomen and Qi Yun was stunned but he became even more excited so his hands gripped his abdomen more tightly. He couldn’t help but shift it down and tighten his grip. Xing Zhongwan paused before pushing Qi Yun away abruptly and slapping him in the face.

 

There was a crisp sound and Qi Yun was shocked. Xing Zhongwan came out of the bathtub panting. The redness on his face gradually faded as he opened the bathroom door and went out without saying a word.

 

Qi Yun sat in the water. His eyes gradually turned red. Was it still impossible? Impossible for us both? Wanwan! He closed his eyes and slammed his fist into the water.

 

Xing Zhongwan leaned against the door and breathed slowly to calm down as he watched himself slowly become soft. He slapped his own cold cheeks. Xing Zhongwan didn’t dare think of what would have happened if he hadn’t slapped him.

 

He took off his clothes and threw them on the ground before changing into a random one from the closet. He sat on the bed with a chaotic state of mind. He didn’t know how long he sat down for until he suddenly remembered that Qi Yun was still in the bathroom. Quickly, he got up to look for Qi Yun.

 

Qi Yun sat dazedly in the cold water. Xing Zhongwan carried him out without saying a word and wrapped him in a dry towel. Qi Yun’s body was as cold as a dead person’s.

 

Xing Zhongwan was a little remorseful. Even if he was angry, he couldn’t just leave a patient in the bathtub. He quickly helped Qi Yun change into clean clothes but saw that he was still shaking. Xing Zhongwan’s bitter heartache came back after seeing his pale lips and thin body shaking, so he simply hugged Qi Yun as the two of them laid down. He wrapped himself in the quilt and wrapped his own feet around Qi Yun’s cold legs to keep him warm.

 

Seeing Qi Yun’s cheeks quickly swell up as the two were under the covers, Xing Zhongwan suddenly regretted it.

 

Qi Yun whispered, “I’m sorry. I was too impatient.”

 

Xing Zhongwan was speechless. He was really angry, but even if he really wanted to scold and beat him, he couldn’t do anything. He was helpless so he only sighed, “It’s hard for me to do this.”

 

Qi Yun raised his hand and put his arms around his neck, “I just like you, Wanwan, can’t you like me a little too?”

 

Xing Zhongwan was silent…

 

That night, Qi Yun had a high fever and it took two days for him to recover. His face became skinny quickly and he looked extremely haggard. Chen Ying was always looking at Xing Zhongwan very strangely these days. The large handprint from the slap on Qi Yun’s face could be seen by everyone. In addition to that, Qi Yun even developed an inexplicable fever.

 

Xing Zhongwan was extremely depressed. Fortunately, Qi Yun soon recovered from the fever and there was news from Uncle Zhong again.

 

The day had been chosen and Xing Zhongwan was also too embarrassed to stay with Qi Yun, so he just flew back to reclaim the f-cking ashes.

 

When Qi Yun woke up, Xing Zhongwan had already boarded a private jet.

 

He stared blankly at the ceiling and didn’t eat for a whole morning. Chen Ying had no choice but to tell him that the young madam left a message when he left, and that he would be back in at most two days so he should eat well and keep his body healthy. Only then did he get up to eat some porridge.

 

Chen Ying looked at Qi Yun worriedly. Xing Zhongwan carried more weight in Qi Yun’s heart than he thought.

 

Although the old lady asked him to follow the owner of the bracelet before she died, to put it bluntly, she meant to follow Qi Yun, but hey… why was the young madam not a woman!

 

On the day that Xing Zhongwan left, Qi Yun didn’t say a word and looked as if his soul had been called back to heaven.

 

Qi Yun recalled the time his grandmother died when he was still young. At the time, he had just returned to his mother’s side. His biological mother was like a stranger to him. At that time, he still had fantasies about maternal love and wanted to try to reconcile and repair the bond that he had been missing for more than ten years. On his mother’s birthday, Qi Yun personally made a gift and planned to give it to her but when he met the fourth young master Qi on the way and the other insisted that he wanted his bird. Qi Yun refused as it was given to him by his grandmother. The two stood in front of their mother, his mother said lightly, “He is your younger brother so you should give it to him. It’s just a bird.”

 

Qi Yun held the gift behind him tightly in his palm, his sweat wetting the paper a little bit, making the handwriting inside a little blurry.

 

“Also, in the future, don’t come here when there’s nothing important, I’m busy.”

 

Qi Yun gave her mother a long look, and saw the fourth young master, Qi looking at him arrogantly.

 

Qi Yun went back without saying a word, tearing up the gift in his hand and burning it to ashes. The bird was drowned in the water by his own hands.

 

Since then, his mother’s eyes have only grown colder and colder.

 

Qi Yun pulled himself away from the past and suddenly opened his eyes. If he couldn’t keep what he liked, he would rather destroy it.

 

If you like something, you can only fight to get it for yourself, and you have to always try your best to get it. This is what Qi Yun has known since he was a child.

 

The door of the room was gently pushed open and a figure walked in, “Third young master, I’ll wash you up and take care of you.”

 

A stern look flashed in Qi Yun’s eyes, “Come in.”

 


T/N: I cackled a bit too much when Qi Yun said he was going to send the poor girl out sideways… Jeez, even so, I know it’s not too excessive, what he said. I think you’ll agree with me after reading the next few chapters hehe ^^

 

Consider liking the writer’s work or buying a kofi for me <3 who knows, might update a lil faster hehe

Chapter 47

       A few days later, Li Zhenruo received a call from Yue Zijia asking him to have dinner together.

       During this time, Li Zhenruo has been keeping in touch with Yue Zijia, and on social networks, has been calling her jiejie1sister sweetly.

       Li Zhenran saw him lying on his office sofa with his cell phone sending messages, and said with a cold face, “You should stop.”

       Li Zhenruo turned her head to look at him, “I helped you spy on the adulterous affair between Li Zhentai and Yue Zijia, what do you have to be unhappy about.”

       Li Zhenran crossed his long leg, “Are you spying on her or is she spying on you?”

       Li Zhenruo grabbed the phone and said, “Everyone is testing each other and getting what they need.”

       “Is it necessary?” Li Zhenran asked him.

       Li Zhenruo was silent for a moment and asked Li Zhenran, “Do you know why I have to know?”

       After asking this question, he carefully paid attention to Li Zhenran’s expression.

       However, Li Zhenran showed no expression. He said, “I don’t know. No matter what you want to do, just remember who your master is.”

       Li Zhenruo pouted.

       Li Zhenran said coldly, “Do you have something to say?”

       Li Zhenruo said quickly, “How dare I?”

       He turned over and stood from the sofa, walked behind Li Zhenran’s office chair, put his hands on Li Zhenran’s shoulders, bent down and pressed his face to his face, “You are the only master in my life.”

       This sentence was true, Li Zhenruo thought that all his lifetime, he could never think of becoming else’s pet one day.

       Li Zhenran smiled, raised his hand and touched his face.

       Li Zhenruo said, “Can I have dinner with Yue Zijia?”

       Li Zhenran replied, “No.”

       When Li Zhenruo heard Li Zhenran refused without even thinking about it, he cursed in his heart: Childish! You just want me to beg you!

       Then, he walked from behind Li Zhenran to face him, sitting on his lap, wrapping his arms around his neck and saying, “Master—”

       Li Zhenran leaned back slightly and did not speak.

       Li Zhenruo reached out towards his legs. Anyway, things that could be solved with the lower body were not a problem. While touching, he said, “Look at me now, it’s useless for women.”

       Li Zhenran said, “You think I didn’t see you that day digging your face into Miss Yu’s chest?”

       Li Zhenran’s provocation aroused up Li Zhenruo, and he was short of breath. He said, “It’s not the same, I just think the soft touch feels good.”

       Li Zhenran leaned into his ear and whispered, “So you like soft ones?”

       The heat of Li Zhenran’s breath scratched his ears, so Li Zhenruo could not help shrinking his neck, bit his lip and said, “Rascal.”

       Li Zhenran suddenly grabbed Li Zhenruo’s waist and made him stand up, made him turn around to lie on the table, then got up himself and spanked Li Zhenruo’s ass, reaching out to unzip his pants.

       At this moment, Hua Yibang suddenly opened the office door and said, “Zhenran, Manager Luo has already—” waiting for you outside…

       Halfway through his words, he consciously went out and closed the door of the office.

       Manager Luo was still waiting for Li Zhenran to summon him. When he saw Hua Yibang’s strange reaction, he asked, “What’s wrong?”

       Without changing his expression, Hua Yibang responded, “It’s nothing, wait a moment.”

       Li Zhenruo was startled, and quickly got up and buttoned his pants, and said angrily, “You dare to not let Hua Yibang knock on the door first when he comes in? Are you not afraid of being impotent if he keep coming in a few more times2Li Zhenruo was referring to being hard but being interrupted again and again without any release!”

       Li Zhenran said calmly, “I won’t, will you?”

       Li Zhenruo was too lazy to pay attention to him, and he had devoted himself to such a degree that even if Li Zhenran didn’t agree with him, he didn’t care. After tidying up, he turned around and took out a thousand yuan in Li Zhenran’s pocket and put it in his bag, then left with his phone in hand.

       Li Zhenran didn’t stop him, but after Li Zhenruo left, he pressed the pager and asked Hua Yibang to invite Manager Luo in.

       Li Zhenruo and Yue Zijia made an appointment. They didn’t eat dinner at any restaurant but went to a club. Yue Zijia has a wide range of contacts. Not only did she invite Li Zhenruo to this meal, but she also invited many young people to sing after eating, saying that the young people came out to get together.

       The price for eating in this club was not cheap, Li Zhenruo thought that Yue Zijia was relying on Li Zhentai to support her behind her back. Otherwise, with her current family background, how could she afford all of this? She also invited so many people.

       The so-called friends she invited were ones she always played outside with, and they all called out Zijia jie affectionately. It was the first time they met Li Zhenruo, but they quickly became familiar with each other. Li Zhenruo was naturally not afraid of strangers, talking and laughing with a group of people, singing and drinking.

       Especially with Yue Zijia, after drinking a few glasses of red wine, the two sat in the corner and chatted. Yue Zijia put one hand on Li Zhenruo’s shoulder and said, “Jason, you and I really hit it off at first sight. It’s rare to meet such a person.”

       Li Zhenruo said, “I also like you a lot, jiejie.”

       Yue Zijia smiled and patted his face, “We should get together more when we have time.”

       Li Zhenruo heard the words and said, “I’m afraid your boyfriend will be jealous.”

       Yue Zijia said, “Where is my boyfriend? What makes you think so?”

       Li Zhenruo said in surprise, “The man you were with when we first met was not your boyfriend?”

       Yue Zijia was stunned for a while, but after recalling it for a while, she couldn’t remember who the man Li Zhenruo was talking about. She smiled bitterly and said, “No, I don’t have a boyfriend.”

       Li Zhenruo took her hand and said, “Zijia jie, you mustn’t be too picky, if you meet the right man, why not consider it.”

       Yue Zijia smiled and asked him, “What about you?”

       “I—” Before Li Zhenruo finished speaking, his phone suddenly rang. He took it out and saw that Li Zhenran was calling. He didn’t avoid Yue Zijia and answered the phone directly.

       Li Zhenran finished his company’s business and called Li Zhenruo, asking him where he was.

       Li Zhenruo said, “I’m drinking with Zijia jie.”

       Li Zhenran glanced at the time, “I’ll pick you up?”

       Li Zhenruo began to pout, “Two more hours later, okay?”

       Li Zhenran was silent for a while and said, “I’ll give you an hour.”

       “Okay!” Li Zhenruo was very content.

       He hung up the phone, and Yue Zijia asked him, “Did your parents call? They urged you to go home so early?”

       Li Zhenruo smiled and did not deny it.

       Yue Zijia put one hand on her face and asked, “I heard that Luo Fei is your cousin?”

       Li Zhenruo pretended to be surprised, “How do you know?”

       Naturally, Li Jianglin told Li Zhentai, and Li Zhentai told Yue Zijia. In fact, Yue Zijia’s determination to get closer to Li Zhenruo, was probably what Li Zhentai’s intended.

       Now the Li family brothers were suspecting that the assistant beside Li Zhenran was his little lover. Li Zhentai hoped to get some evidence so that he could put it in front of Li Jianglin.

       Yue Zijia smiled and took a sip of red wine, “This circle is so big, what’s there to hide from others?”

       Li Zhenruo seemed a little embarrassed and ruffled his hair.

       At this time, someone brought a wine glass to toast Yue Zijia.

       Yue Zijia pulled Li Zhenruo and said, “My little brother is here. If you want to drink with me, drink with my little brother first!”

       Li Zhenruo knew that Yue Zijia wanted to make him drunk, but he wasn’t afraid at all about it. He was not as useless as his brothers. In the Li family, Li Zhenruo had always been the best drinker.

       And he had a good alcohol tolerance, even if he drank to unconsciousness, he just sleeps with his head covered, and it was really difficult to hear any information from his mouth.

       So Li Zhenruo smiled and picked up the glass and said, “I’ll toast for my jiejie.”

       The young man who came to toast said, “Okay, then come and drink.”

       Li Zhenruo clinked him with a glass of wine and drank it.

       As soon as the first one started, naturally, there was no way to easily back away easily. After that, a group of people started to toast each other. Not only Li Zhenruo drink a lot, but even Yue Zijia couldn’t escape, and later drank a lot.

       Li Zhenruo didn’t continue to fish for Yue Zijia’s information, this was not a matter to be finished in one or two days. He should let Yue Zijia think that he was an honest child and then talk slowly.

       Unknowingly, an hour had passed, Li Zhenruo heard the phone ringing. He took a look and found that Li Zhenran was calling. The surrounding environment was too noisy, so Li Zhenruo went into the bathroom with his mobile phone, closed the door and leaned against the door to answer the phone.

       Li Zhenran’s voice rang in his ears, “Time is up, I’ve already come.”

       Li Zhenruo felt a little itchy at his tailbone, so he stretched out a hand and scratched across the pants, he said, “You come here, I also want to go back too.”

       Li Zhenran said “Um” and hung up the phone.

       Li Zhenruo still felt itchy on his tailbone, he heard that they were still dancing outside like a madman, so he hid in the bathroom and didn’t want to go out. He scratched his tailbone with his fingers, and after a while, he felt something break through the skin and protrude. It was not painful, but it was itchy.

       His fingers scratched something fluffy this time.

       He inexplicably grabbed it, Li Zhenruo was stunned. What did he grab? Did he seem to have caught a cat’s tail? This is not true, is it?

       Li Zhenruo hurriedly ran to the front of the mirror, turned around and stood on tiptoe to look behind his buttocks. Sure enough, he saw a fluffy cat’s tail, like a big caterpillar, which pierced his pants and stretched out.

       Li Zhenruo was dumbfounded.

       Because he had been in the bathroom and couldn’t go out, someone walked to the bathroom door and knocked on the door, “Who’s in there? How come you’re not out yet?” This person was also quite drunk judging from the way he sounded.

       Li Zhenruo really drank a lot at night. Although his brain was half awake, his reaction was slow for half a beat. He was a little flustered for a while, and he didn’t know what to do, so he could only take out his mobile phone and call Li Zhenran.

       Li Zhenran had already walked to the door of the private room according to the location of the collar. As soon as he answered the phone, he heard his cat say incoherently, “Ge! Master! What should I do?! My tail is out!”

       “Tail?” Li Zhenran couldn’t help but be slightly startled.

       Li Zhenruo said, “Yeah, a big tail!”

       Li Zhenran thought about it for a while, and thought it might be what he thought, and said, “Wait a minute, I’ll be there soon.”

       He immediately hung up the phone, knocked on the private room door and pushed it open.

       A group of young people were already drinking too much inside, and almost no one noticed that someone pushed the door in. Only Yue Zijia was a little more sober. She didn’t expect Li Zhenran to find it directly, so she stood up in a daze, “Zhenran?”

       Li Zhenran said, “Is my assistant here?”

       A drunk girl suddenly pounced on Li Zhenran with a bottle of wine, “Who are you, handsome? Let’s have a drink!”

       Li Zhenran politely pulled her hand away and asked Yue Zijia, “Where is he?”

       Yue Zijia reacted at this time, smiled and said, “It seems that he had gone to the bathroom. You can come and sit for a while, and wait for him to come out.”

       Li Zhenran didn’t respond to her, went directly to the bathroom door and knocked on the door, and said inside, “I’m here.”

       The door opened a crack, Li Zhenruo let Li Zhenran in, then closed the door tightly, turned around to show him behind him, “Look.”

       Li Zhenran frowned slightly, reached out and grabbed his tail.

       Li Zhenruo was still nervous, “What should I do?”

       Li Zhenran said, “You try to restart once.”

       “Restart?” Li Zhenruo was at a loss.

       Li Zhenran explained to him clearly, “Return to the original form and then become a human being.”

       “Right,” Li Zhenruo looked at him, “You are so smart!”

       Li Zhenran didn’t look good when he heard the compliment, “You drank a lot.” This sentence was a declarative sentence, and he was not happy.

       Li Zhenruo couldn’t hear it at this time. His attention was still on his tail. In front of Li Zhenran, he first turned into a cat, and then stretched his body into a human shape.

       Clothes were scattered all over the place, Li Zhenran looked at the naked boy kneeling on the ground with his body curled up, and he couldn’t help raising a hand and gently rubbing his lips with some interest.

       Li Zhenruo still stretched out his hand to touch his tailbones, but he still touched his fluffy tail. He immediately raised his head to look at Li Zhenran, “It’s still there, what should I do?”

       Li Zhenran said solemnly, “Get up and look in the mirror.”

       Li Zhenruo heard the words, hesitantly got up and walked in front of the mirror, and was horrified to find that it wasn’t just the tail, this time even the cat’s ears appeared!

       He was startled and frightened. He raised his hands and pinched his ears, and he was at a loss. His cheeks burned with alcohol, and his brain continued to crash. He could only turn around and grab Li Zhenran’s hand and ask him, “Why don’t I become a cat and you take me back?”

       Li Zhenran said, “Yes, but how do you explain to them that you are missing and there is an extra cat in the bathroom?”

       Li Zhenruo said frantically, “Then what?”

       Li Zhenran reached out and pressed his lips, “Don’t yell, put on your pants first.”

       Li Zhenruo heard the words, squatted down and picked up his pants. He sat on the toilet lid and put them on with difficulty, and finally tried to pull the tail out of the hole above the buttocks, and the fur was flailing side to side.

       Afterwards, Li Zhenran wrapped his upper body with his coat, carefully wrapped his tail together, then carried him in his arms, and covered Li Zhenruo’s head with his coat, saying, “Don’t move, I’ll take you away.”

       How could Li Zhenruo still dare to move? He obediently put his face in Li Zhenran’s arms, pretending to be drunk.

       When they came out of the bathroom, Yue Zijia saw that Li Zhenran had carried the person out. She hurriedly stepped forward and asked, “What’s the matter? Drunk?”

       Li Zhenran nodded, “He drank too much, I’ll take him back.”

       Of course, Yue Zijia couldn’t stop Li Zhenran, she just said, “Be careful on the road, I’ll walk you out.”

       Li Zhenran let her go to the door and said to her, “No need to walk us out, you guys have fun.”

       Yue Zijia nodded with a smile, and said, “Be careful on the road.”

       Li Zhenruo lay in Li Zhenran’s arms and pretended to be dead all the way until he felt that Li Zhenran carried him into the car, then he tore off the coat covering him, and in a panic reached out to touch the top of his head, and found that the cat’s ears were still there.

       Li Zhenran got into the driver’s seat and started the car.

       Li Zhenruo rushed over from the back seat and said, “What should I do?”

       Li Zhenran seemed impatient, “What to do?”

       Li Zhenruo said, “Ears! And tails!”

       Li Zhenran glanced at him from the rearview mirror and said, “Go back to sleep, you will lose your ears when you wake up.”

       Li Zhenruo thought it made sense and said, “Then I’m going to sleep!”

       Li Zhenran waved his hand and told him to go to sleep.

       Li Zhenruo then lay down in the back seat. Of course, he didn’t forget to transform himself into a cat before falling asleep. After all, he would have to go home with Li Zhenran later.

       Later, when Li Zhenran returned home, he found that his cat had slept to death. Li Zhenran thought it was very interesting, so he grabbed one leg and dragged him out.

       Wang Ma just opened the door to let him in. She saw that Li Zhenran was carrying the cat by his leg, but the cat didn’t respond at all, she was startled and said, “Oh, what’s the matter?”

       Li Zhenran raised the cat a little higher and said to Wang Ma, “It’s drunk.”

       “Drunk?” Wang Ma looked surprised, “Why do you give it a drink? Are you torturing it?”

       Li Zhenran said indifferently, “It’s him who wants to drink, it’s fine.” After that, he carried Li Zhenruo upstairs.

Chapter 33 – Wanwan, have a good dream!

Chapter 33 – Wanwan, have a good dream!

 

Qi Yun’s room was on the second floor of the small building. The room was not big, but it was cozy. There was a problem. In this small room, where should Xing Zhongwan sleep?

 

Xing Zhongwan was about to ask Qi Yun whether he should move downstairs, but before he could say anything, Qi Yun patted his bed and motioned for him to sleep with him.

 

Xing Zhongwan’s entire being rejected the idea, “How about I set up a small bed at the door of your room so you can call me over if there was anything?”

 

Qi Yun, who was patting the bed, stopped. His face was sullen, “Why sleep by the door? Other’s will laugh. Do you still want to sleep in a separate room from me with your current identity?”

 

Three question marks appeared in Xing Zhongwan’s head, Identity? What was my status now? Wasn’t that just a fake marriage?

 

To treat it so seriously?

 

Qi Yun turned his face away silently, “I know you hate me because I can’t see, and because my legs are still crippled.” Xing Zhongwan hurriedly interrupted him, “What are you talking about? How could I possibly think that? I’ll take a shower first, jeez.”

 

As Xing Zhongwan turned around and went downstairs to get his luggage, Qi Yun turned his head and there was a little smugness on his face. Wanwan, so you are amenable to coaxing.

 

Xing Zhongwan came out of the bathroom wiping his half-dried hair and put on a pair of pajama pants loosely on his lower body. Xing Zhongwan always slept in the nude. However, this was only because there was also another person in the room who only wore a pair of trousers. Whether the other wore those pairs of trousers or not, it was no different than if he did not wear them when they were hanging loosely by his crotch, about to fall off.

 

Xing Zhongwan threw the towel away and looked at Qi Yun who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed. After thinking about it, he took out his pajama shirt and put them on before pulling up his pants and walking to the bed.

 

There was only one bed!?

 

Xing Zhongwan felt like going to get another bed. As soon as he turned around, Qi Yun on the bed opened his eyes, “What are you doing? It’s very late.I have physical rehabilitation early tomorrow so I have to rest well.”

 

Xing Zhongwan frowned, “I’m going to get another quilt or else I won’t sleep well at night. I’ll steal your quilt too.”

 

“You slept well last time, so we don’t have to use different quilts.”

 

Qi Yun said it so naturally.

 

Slept well? It was a good thing that you were not suffocated by Laozi.

 

“There are not many quilts left right now. Everyone else has gone to bed, so let’s talk about it tomorrow!”

 

I really don’t believe that your Qi family failed to bring a single quilt for me! Xing Zhongwan went to bed reluctantly. He lifted the quilt and lay on the edge of the bed. Closing his eyes, he was trying to hypnotize himself to sleep when Qi Yun’s hand suddenly reached out and touched his arm, “Come a little closer, it’s a little cold.”

 

Xing Zhongwan saw that it wasn’t just a little cold. The windows were so wide open that if it wasn’t a little cold, it would be weird.

 

He got up and was about to close the window but Qi Yun put his arm around him and said good night.

 

Xing Zhongwan froze up immediately. Qi Yun was hugging him so he couldn’t get up to close the window. He could only close his eyes resignedly, and Xing Zhongwan who had been hard at work the entire day soon became drowsy.

 

Jiangnan in March and April was still a little cold when the cool wind blew at night. Xing Zhongwan subconsciously leaned towards Qi Yun’s side. It was very warm. He turned over and hugged Qi Yun, his legs subconsciously hooking him by the waist. He buried his head between Qi Yun’s neck. As his warm breath touched Qi Yun’s sensitive skin, Qi Yun opened his eyes and placed his hand around Xing Zhongwan’s back. It was a good thing that Chen Ying opened the window ahead of time. You see, didn’t he come up to hug him on his own?

 

Qi Yun turned his face and kissed Xing Zhongwan’s forehead. Wanwan, have a good dream!

 

Qi Yun was training inside and it was rare that Xing Zhongwan was not allowed to watch. Xing Zhongwan wondered for a while, before I was only allowed to stand by the door, but now I was not even allowed to watch? That man’s heart is not easy to understand. It was a good thing too, he now finally has some personal time of his own. Xing Zhongwan hummed a little song and asked Chen Ying for the car keys so he could go out to play.

 

In the physical rehabilitation room, Qi Yun struggled to support his body. He was sweating profusely and his weak legs were struggling to take another step. Chen Ying watched from the side, a little puzzled, “Master Yun, the young madam drove out.”

 

Qi Yun gritted his teeth and replied with an ‘en’, Chen Ying suddenly didn’t know what else to say.

 

“I don’t want him to see my ugly appearance. It’s better for someone of Wanwan’s attitude who can’t stay idle to go out and relax. Watching me all day long will also bore him.”

 

Chen Ying was surprised. When did Qi Yun become so sympathetic?

 

“How’s that going?”

 

Chen Ying stood up straight and said solemnly, “The fourth young master Qi really likes the gift we gave him. We will be able to reel in the nets soon.”

 

Qi Yun nodded in satisfaction, “That’s good. It was not in vain for me to have escaped here. My mother probably didn’t expect for the disputes and conflicts to occur internally.”

 

Qi Yun exerted a little too much force and his entire body suddenly fell down. Chen Ying was startled and hurried up to help him but Qi Yun Yun stretched out his hand to signal for him not to come forward.

 

“How’s it goin on my mother’s side?”

 

Chen Ying retracted his hands, “Madam Qi’s side has been silent for a while but the person I sent out reported that she intends to contact the chairman privately.”

 

Qi Yun snorted coldly, “She really is willing to cause trouble to others when she has no one else to turn to! Considering that woman she brought in, I’m afraid she can’t wait anymore.”

 

Chen Ying responded, looking at Qi Yun’s tired face and couldn’t help but try to persuade him, “Master Yun, please take a rest.”

 

Qi Yun’s face was cold, “No, let the doctor in.”

 

Xing Zhongwan drove to the city and parked the car in a parking lot before taking a taxi to the suburbs that was more than an hour away from the city. Uncle Zhong was already waiting for Xing Zhongwan at the door.

 

“Master, it’s been a long time, this old man thinks of you a lot.”

 

Uncle Zhong was an old man with gray hair and a small stature. His originally amiable face was overshadowed by a ruthless, long scar on his face.

 

Xing Zhongwan put his arms around him, “Think about what you said. Didn’t I come to see you just two months ago? Since then, how is that a long time?” 

 

The smile on Uncle Zhong’s face bloomed, but his scary-looking face became more and more odd, “Come in, this old man made your favorite white water shrimp.”

 

Xing Zhongwan smiled, “I was waiting for you to say that.”

 

After dinner, Xing Zhongwan took a whiff of the tea he was drinking. Appreciating the leisurely fragrance of tea, he said, “The most fragrant tea is still the one that’s grown at home.”

 

Uncle Zhong said with a smile, “When the new tea leaves comes out, I’ll bring it for you and also give Mr. Cheng and Miss Xue to try.”

 

Xing Zhongwan said, “They look forward to this every year, Uncle Zhong. I will leave my mother’s affairs to you.”

 

Uncle Zhong’s face suddenly lost his smile, “Don’t worry, Madam’s affairs can’t be delayed, the master over there cannot be trusted. I’ll arrange for it as soon as possible. Master, hurry up and retrieve the ashes of the madam back.”

 

After speaking, old uncle Zhong’s wrinkled eyes filled with tears, “The madam can finally return to her home. After so many years, how lonely it must be for madam to be here alone.” 

 

The old man stretched out his sleeves and wiped away his tears, Xing Zhongwan put his arms around his shoulders, “Oh, don’t cry. Are you inviting me to cry with you? It’s a good thing that my mother can go back. Why are you still sad?”

 

Uncle Zhong wiped away his tears and raised his head to look at Xing Zhongwan who was smiling in front of him, “Master, the older you become, the more you look like the master. Your personality was also so similar to his when he was young.”

 

Xing Zhongwan was taken aback, “That can’t be. I grew up beaten by that old man’s stick, how can I not be like him?”

 

Uncle Zhong’s eyes flashed with a complex emotion, but it was only for a moment.

 

“Young master, you are close to the Qi family now, but don’t implicate yourself. The Qi family are very good at treating others differently based on their social status. When the master was still alive, Qi Zongcheng cheekily came to ask for his son’s marriage partner. Qi Zhongcheng was even willing to accept that kind of daughter born from Xing Zhengping. They are the kind of people who are willing to marry anyone for the sake of profit by any means. Although his grandson is disabled now, he was a ruthless person back then. The young master has been wronged for the sake of the young lady. After settling the young lady’s matter, the young master must get out as soon as possible.”

 

Xing Zhongwan thought, Get out early. He didn’t know how many times he’s thought about it, but now…

 

Thinking of Qi Yun’s side profile as he slept peacefully while leaning on him when he woke up this morning, he couldn’t tell him that he was going to leave early. He’ll wait for Qi Yun to finish the operation, then he will really leave. By then, the kindness he gave will be repaid. If he didn’t leave… Xing Zhongwan sighed while covering his pained chest.

 

Old Uncle Zhong called out to the young master a few times but Xing Zhongwan didn’t respond. He couldn’t help but wonder as he stretched out his hand and nudged him, “Young Master, is this something difficult to do?”

 

Xing Zhongwan finally recovered and said hurriedly, “You should also leave with me this time. I’ll worry if you’re going to stay in the countryside alone.”

 

Uncle Zhong shook his head, “I’m already old, so I want to guard this old house. This was also my promise to the master. As long as Xing’s old house is here, this old man will be here too. There are many old things belonging to the master in the house. I often take them out to wash and dry them. When one day I can’t do it anymore and die of old age, then young master can bury my ashes under the peach tree in the yard.”

 

Xing Zhongwan’s eyes were getting red. As he looked up at the old Xing family’s house which was still standing after withstanding the day-by-day weather as well as the old servant who has already grown old but was still loyal. Grandpa, was this the Xing family’s character you often talked about?

 

As Xing Zhongwan left the old house, Uncle Zhong stood by the door watching Xing Zhongwan’s back disappear gradually. He then turned to close the door and muttered to himself, “Master, the young master has become calmer. This is good, so you must be happy. This old man knows that you must be very happy. The young madam will also return soon so don’t be angry with her anymore. You must treat her well!”    

 


T/N: When the elderly talk like that in stories, it makes me feel a little nostalgic. I feel sad too, but they’ve probably also had their fair share of time and already lived their life. Only slowly passing the days by peacefully to reminisce about the long by-gone past and cherish the memories that in the past, many others also shared with them while they were still truly alive, and younger.

 

Consider liking the writer’s work or buying a kofi for me <3 who knows, might update a lil faster hehe

Chapter 46

       Li Zhenruo sat by Li Zhenran’s bed, and when Li Zhenran passed by, he patted his cat’s head. He looked up at Li Zhenran blankly and saw him walking towards the bathroom.

       After a while, Li Zhenran came out of the shower and patted his head again as he passed by.

       Li Zhenruo was confused, “?”

       Li Zhenran went to the cabinet to find a pair of clean underwear to put on and then patted him again before going to the bathroom.

       Li Zhenruo couldn’t bear it any longer. He turned into a naked youth, jumped up to stand and asked, “What do you want to—”

       He originally wanted to ask what you were doing, but before he could even ask the question, Li Zhenran was already crushing him on the bed. Li Zhenruo immediately reacted. Li Zhenran didn’t want to do anything, he just wanted to fvck him.

       How treacherous!

       Although he was indignant, at the same time he was inexorably caught up in desire.

       Later, Li Zhenruo lay on the bed panting and couldn’t recover his breath for a long time. He saw Li Zhenran turn over and sit up, walked to the window and opened it. He even sat up with his hand propping his body, his long legs stretched out of the window and swung into the air.

       Li Zhenruo couldn’t help but say, “You are not afraid that the people downstairs would think they saw a pervert?”

       Li Zhenran didn’t speak.

       Li Zhenruo was still lying on his stomach, propping his face with one hand, and said to him, “Today, such a big thing happened in your house, you still have such a good mood?”

       Li Zhenran said, “Then what? Should I go hug my eldest brother and cry together with him?”

       “Really cold and heartless,” these words were really Li Zhenruo’s evaluation of Li Zhenran.

       Li Zhenruo was actually a little sad as he saw Li Jianglin’s attitude today. He found that it wasn’t just the brothers who were indifferent in this family. Even Li Jianglin, the person who held together their blood relationship, was actually indifferent.

       Li Zhenran didn’t speak.

       The lights and air conditioners in the room were turned off, and he sat by the window, feeling the cool breeze outside on his naked body.

       Li Zhenruo rested his chin on the back of his hand, thought for a while and then said, “Why do you say your father insists on letting the eldest marry Wen Chun? Things were already like this.”

       In regards to Li Jianglin’s thoughts, Li Zhenruo always found them difficult to understand. In the past, he could only discuss with Yan Xiujie, but Yan Xiujie’s understanding of Li Jianglin was limited. He didn’t expect to have the opportunity to talk about this topic with Li Zhenran now.

       He couldn’t help but think of a sentence: The God of destiny makes fools of the people.

       Li Zhenran heard the words and said slowly, “Because the eldest was not valued high enough.”

       Li Zhentai was not as good as the other sons in Li Jianglin’s heart, everyone could see it to some extent. But to say he was not as good as Wen Chun, wouldn’t it be too much?

       However, just like the big families in ancient times, there were a few people who could make their own marriages, and they don’t have to be under the orders of their parents. Li Jianglin’s idea of ​​making Li Zhentai marry Wen Chun was understandable, and it was normal not to allow him to divorce. Li Zhenruo believed that Li Zhentai will be the one who finally compromises, but Li Jianglin must also do something to appease Li Zhentai, right?

       Li Zhenruo was in a trance thinking about it. After a while, Li Zhenran went back to bed and put his arms around him to sleep. He felt a coolness on Li Zhenran’s skin, so he put his face on his firm chest, yawned, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

       Just as he expected, Li Zhentai only tensed up for two or three days, and now that he was sober, he has come back to compromise with Li Jianglin.

       The father and son were locked in the study for an afternoon. Li Zhenruo turned to the window to eavesdrop, but as soon as he ran to the window sill, he was chased down by Li Zhentai, who was standing by the window.

       Li Zhenruo hid under the window sill, but there was still some distance to the window, and the glass window of the study was closed tightly, so he couldn’t hear it clearly even with his cat ears.

       However, it was possible to guess what the father and son said. Li Zhentai could not give up the entire Li family for this matter. Li Jianglin gave a stick first and then jujube to eat1it’s similar to the sticks and carrot analogy. Whether Li Zhentai was willing or not, he always had to give in.

       Li Zhenruo circled the house and went back to the living room. When he saw Wen Chun standing on the stairs, he seemed to want to go down to the first floor, but suddenly stopped for some reason and turned back upstairs.

       Wen Chun stayed at home for the past two days and didn’t go anywhere. Originally, after the wedding, she and Li Zhentai planned to go out for their honeymoon, but in this situation, the honeymoon plan has naturally been cancelled.

       Wen Chun still has about a month’s vacation, and she seemed to plan to stay at home so quietly.

       Although it was true that Wen Chun had an affair with Li Zhenzi, but no one knew how many mistresses Li Zhentai had outside. When this matter was exposed, Li Zhentai was completely a victim, which made Li Zhenruo feel it was a little unfair to Wen Chun.

       Obviously, there were problems with both of them, but Wen Chun broke up with Li Zhen after deciding to marry Li Zhentai, but Li Zhentai was still entangled with Yue Zijia.

       Li Zhenruo sighed suddenly, not because of Li Zhentai or Wen Chun, but because it was not easy for a cat to worry about the Li family.

       Li Zhentai did not stay at home for dinner, and Li Zhenruo estimated that he would not come back to sleep tonight. Although he chose to compromise, Li Zhenruo believed that Li Jianglin must have also made concessions for his compromises. During this time, Li Zhentai would spend the night outside, and Li Jianglin would definitely not pursue him.

       Oh my, such a marriage that exists in name only, why should it be maintained?

       Li Zhenruo thought sadly while chewing cat food.

       Li Zhenran finished dinner, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and said to Li Jianglin, “Then I’ll go now, Dad.”

       Li Jianglin said, “Well, go ahead.”

       Li Zhenruo was stunned for a moment, only to realize that he had been distracted just now, and he didn’t notice what Li Zhenran and Li Jianglin said. When he saw Li Zhenran get up and walk outside, he quickly dropped the half-eaten cat food and followed.

       Li Zhenran walked to the gate and stopped to look at him, “What are you doing following me?”

       Li Zhenruo threw a look at him, you know.

       Li Zhenran gave him a cold look but did not stop him from following him out.

       Without calling the driver, Li Zhenran drove a car by himself. Since the time Li Zhenruo could freely change between the two forms, Li Zhenran’s driving time had obviously increased.

       Li Zhenruo got into the car and realized that he didn’t bring his clothes out. Before Li Zhenran started the car, he put his paw on his arm to remind him with a “meow” and wanted him to go upstairs and get his clothes off.

       Li Zhenran actually understood what he meant and said, “Just stay like this, I’m going to find the third child.”

       Li Zhenruo was stunned for a moment. He originally wanted to ask Li Zhenran what he was going to do looking for Li Zhenzi, but he thought it would be troublesome to have to turn into a human to speak, so he stayed quiet and analyzed the matter by himself: It might be that Li Jianglin asked Li Zhenran to find Li Zhenzi to tell Li Zhenzi not to go home for a short time.

       After all, Li Jianglin was still more partial to the third child.

       While driving, Li Zhenran took out his mobile phone and called Li Zhenzi.

       Li Zhenruo looked at him and felt it was dangerous, so he couldn’t help raising his paw hesitantly to put it on his wrist. Li Zhenran turned his head to look at him and pinched his face when he had time waiting for the red light.

       With such a simple action, Li Zhenruo was inexplicably a little shy. He retracted his claws and sat quietly in the passenger seat and thought: Damn, so cool!

       Li Zhenzi has lived with Yu Bingwei ever since he was kicked out by Li Jianglin.

       Li Zhenran carried Li Zhenruo upstairs and rang the doorbell. Li Zhenruo tried his best to stick his head out and look around. He still has some feelings for Yu Bingwei’s mother and daughter and this home. After all, she was the first owner after he left the mama cat, and this owner was both a beautiful woman and very kind to him.

       The person who came to open the door was Yu Bingwei’s mother. He had not seen the old lady for a long time, but she was still in good spirits. But when she opened the door, she looked at Li Zhenran with a look of doubt and vigilance. Later, she noticed the cat that wanted to pounce on her, opened her mouth for a while and said, “Oh, is this Dumpling?”

       Li Zhenran let go of his hand, allowing Li Zhenruo to jump into Mama Yu’s arms.

       At this time, Yu Bingwei heard the movement and walked to the door of the room to look, and asked, “Who is it, Mom?”

       Mama Yu said, “Dumpling is back!”

       When Yu Bingwei saw Li Zhenran, she gave a slightly surprised “ah” and turned back and shouted, “Daniel, your second brother is here.” Then she warmly invited Li Zhenran into the room.

       Li Zhenran called Li Zhenzi before he came, otherwise he wouldn’t have known that he could be found here. So when he saw Li Zhenran, Li Zhenzhi was not surprised at all. He still had bruises on his face. It was estimated that he would not have the face to go out to meet people in a short time, so he could only hide on Yu Bingwei’s side.

       Li Zhenzi told Li Zhenran to sit down on the sofa.

       Yu Bingwei asked Mama Yu to pour tea and reached out to take Li Zhenruo into her arms.

       Li Zhenruo buried her face in Yu Bingwei’s chest, took a deep breath, and then felt Li Zhenran’s piercing gaze shooting toward him. Although he couldn’t see it, he also felt a chill on his back, and he quickly pulled out his face.

       Li Zhenzi put his elbows on his knees and leaned forward slightly when he sat on the sofa. Li Zhenruo peeked at him secretly, only to think that his always handsome face was red and swollen, which was very funny.

       He didn’t speak, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

       Yu Bingwei was very good at looking at reading the atmosphere. When Yu’s mother made the tea, she carried Li Zhenruo into the kitchen, closed the door slightly, and washed the dishes with Yu’s mother.

       They had just finished the evening meal, but there were only three of them to eat and not many bowls to wash.

       Li Zhenruo pricked up his ears and heard Li Zhenran say to Li Zhenzi outside, “Dad asked me to come and see you.”

       Li Zhenzi was silent for a moment, and asked, “Is Chun jie okay?”

       Li Zhenruo was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously glanced at Yu Bingwei who was holding him, but Yu Bingwei obviously didn’t hear the conversation outside, she was helping Yu’s mother to get the clean dishcloth.

       Mama Yu’s face didn’t look very good, she wiped the bowl silently, and said to Yu Bingwei while putting the bowl in the cupboard, “What happened to him? It looks like there is a conflict with the family, right?”

       Yu Bingwei scratched the top of Li Zhenruo’s head lightly with her fingers and said, “Well, there’s a trouble with the family.”

       Mama Yu opened her mouth and seemed to hold back what she wanted to say.

       Yu Bingwei said, “I know how far to go and when to stop in my heart, Mom, don’t worry. In a few days, it will be easy to part without hard feelings.”

       When Li Zhenruo heard Yu Bingwei’s words, he couldn’t help being stunned for a moment, not even noticing what Li Zhenran and Li Zhenzi said outside. He thought, after being together for a long time, Yu Bingwei didn’t have much sincerity towards Li Zhenzi, but she just took what she needed and waited for the right opportunity to move and break up.

       After a while, someone knocked on the kitchen door.

       Yu Bingwei went over to open the door and saw Li Zhenran standing at the door. He said to her, “We’re going to leave.”

       “Oh,” Yu Bingwei reacted, and immediately returned the cat in her arms to Li Zhenran.

       Li Zhenran touched the top of Li Zhenruo’s head heavily.

       Li Zhenruo hurriedly lay in Li Zhenran’s arms, looking up at him pitifully.

       When they came out, Li Zhenzi sent them to the gate and said, “I’m fine, it’s my fault, I’ll go to Dad to apologize in a few days.”

       Li Zhenruo listened to his sincere tone but felt that Li Zhenzi probably didn’t really think so in his heart, otherwise he wouldn’t have done things like hooking up with Wen Chun in the first place. The guilt now was nothing more than for Wen Chun, because once the matter was exposed, Wen Chun was destined to be wronged in the Li family in the future.

       In the evening, Li Zhenruo lay on Li Zhenran’s bed and listened to the sound of water in the bathroom.

       After a while, when he heard the sound of the water stop, he stood up and sharpened his claws on the edge of the bed, preparing himself to get ready.

       When Li Zhenran opened the bathroom door and came out, Li Zhenruo jumped on it at once, and perfectly achieved the transformation in the air. The beautiful naked youth threw himself into Li Zhenran’s arms, who was also naked.

       He was so enthusiastic to deliver, and of course, Li Zhenran would not refuse. He reached out to catch Li Zhenruo and then pressed him on the bed.

       Li Zhenruo thought to himself: maybe it doesn’t matter if one was straight or not. He didn’t know if he was too liberal or too greedy for pleasure. Anyway, now he maintained this relationship with Li Zhenran, not only he didn’t feel uncomfortable, but he also liked it.

       Halfway through, he had an idea, if he suddenly turned into a cat in the middle of the next time he was doing it, he wondered if Li Zhenran would go crazy.

       But when he thought about it seriously, Li Zhenran might not only go mad, but it was possible to tear him apart, so it was better not to do these unnecessary things to provoke Li Zhenran.

       As he was lying on Li Zhenran’s shoulder, Li Zhenruo nibbled on his shoulder with some boredom and said, “Will your father be very angry if you let him know that Li Zhentai has a mistress outside?”

       Li Zhenran lay on his back with his hands under his head, and turned to look at him, “Do you think my dad doesn’t know that the eldest has a mistress?”

       Li Zhenruo was slightly taken aback.

       Li Zhenran said, “You forgot, he has so many mistresses outside.”

       Li Zhenruo was silent for a while and said, “But if Wen Chun knew, Li Jianglin would have no reason to stand by Li Zhentai.”

       “So what,” Li Zhenran said, “It’s just a show for Wen Chun to see, what effect can it play?”

       Li Zhenruo’s chin rested on Li Zhenran’s shoulder, and he suddenly felt a little disappointed, “I think your father doesn’t seem to care about anything.”

       Li Zhenran stretched out his hand to squeeze his face and asked him, “What do you think he cares about? Is this important to you?”

       Li Zhenruo said, “I don’t think you gave it a thought yet. Your Li family has such a big business, but the brothers are fighting over it. It’s not worth it.”

       Li Zhenran actually laughed, “It was originally something from our Li family. They took what they deserved, and I took what I deserved. What’s not worth it?”

       Li Zhenruo looked at Li Zhenran and saw that he was smiling slightly. The words he spoke seemed to be very casual, like a joke but not like a joke.

       It’s just that Li Zhenruo thought to himself: I believe there’s something fishy about you.

       Li Zhenran said to him, “But you, what do you think of our brother’s things? You don’t want to get a hand in it too?”

       Li Zhenruo felt that Li Zhenran probably suspected him of something. Indeed, from the beginning, he had many loopholes, and he did not hide many things from Li Zhenran. He felt that Li Zhenran’s attitude of indifference was strange, and so it was normal to have doubts.

       It was just that when he thought about himself from Li Zhenran’s point of view, and no matter how many abnormal behaviours point him to Li Zhenruo, he feels that Li Zhenran would only suspect that he has anything to do with Li Zhenruo, instead of thinking that he was Li Zhenruo. After all, it was incredible if Li Zhenran really had such an idea. He would want to just knock Li Zhenran’s head out to see what kind of strange brain circuit he had.

       Anyway, Li Zhenran was suspicious. Li Zhenruo was going to expose the truth, so he put his whole body on Li Zhenran and asked him, “What do you think your father really cares about?”

       Li Zhenran looked at him and said, “What he really cares about is that Yunlin can develop better in the hands of whomever he hands over. The rest are not important.”

       Li Zhenruo said, “The human heart is full of flesh2meaning that the human heart must have feelings, I don’t believe that he is not biased at all.”

       Li Zhenran smiled, “Of course he is biased, he doesn’t like the eldest very much, but this was based on his consideration of the abilities of several sons, you should understand.”

       Li Zhenruo thought: What do you mean I should understand?

       Having said this, Li Zhenruo felt a little sad. He put his head on Li Zhenran’s shoulder, closed his eyes, and sighed softly.

Chapter 45

       Li Zhenruo was probably the first person to know about the relationship between Li Zhenzi and Wen Chun, but he never told others, so he felt that maybe he could use this as a bargaining chip and use it to threaten Li Zhenzi and Wen Chun in the future if it was necessary.

       But he didn’t expect Zhu Kai to make things so big.

       There were too many people around the door of the lounge, and there was no movement inside. Li Zhenruo stayed for a while and walked outside, and saw Yue Zijia was looking this way with a small handbag in her hand. As she saw Li Zhenruo looking at her, Yue Zijia showed a gentle smile.

       Li Zhenruo hesitated a little and walked towards Yue Zijia, “Miss Yue.”

       Yue Zijia nodded, “Hello, may I ask what’s going on inside?”

       Li Zhenruo thought for a while, “It seems that the groom and the bride are quarrelling.”

       “Oh?” Yue Zijia was a little surprised. She turned her head to look in the direction of the lounge, and couldn’t help but take two steps forward, “What’s going on?”

       Li Zhenruo said softly, “Zhentai ge might be in a tight spot.”

       Yue Zijia looked at him inexplicably.

       Li Zhenruo shook his head, “Nothing. Are you not going to eat?”

       Yue Zijia smiled and said, “I’m not hungry yet.”

       Li Zhenruo said, “You have to eat something even if you are not hungry. Why don’t you come and sit with me.”

       Yue Zijia didn’t know what was on Li Zhenruo’s mind, and after a little hesitation, she nodded and agreed. The two of them went back to Li Zhenruo’s table and sat down. Li Zhenruo also took the initiative to help giving food to Yue Zijia with chopsticks.

       Zhu Kai had already left. Of course, Li Jianglin would not let him go like that after he caused so much trouble for the Li family. So he left first before anyone could find him.

       Li Zhenruo couldn’t guess what was on Zhu Kai’s mind anyway, so he concentrated on dealing with Yue Zijia.

       Yue Zijia was a well-rounded person. After a few conversations, the two of them regretted that they couldn’t know each other earlier, and their names were changed to that of sisters and brothers.

       Li Zhenruo pondered in his heart that it was good for him to approach Yue Zijia on purpose. Judging from Yue Zijia’s appearance, it seemed that she was also trying to get closer to him, but he didn’t know what for.

       Later, he thought that it was mostly related to Li Zhenran. Yue Zijia saw him with Li Zhenran several times, and Li Zhentai also met him in and out of Li Zhenran’s office. At that time, he looked at him with ambiguous eyes, maybe he was going to catch Li Zhenran’s misdeed.

       If this was the case, although Yue Zijia looked like a flirtatious and wanderlust person, she was still sincere toward Li Zhentai.

       After a while, Li Zhenruo saw Li Zhentai and Wen Chun coming out to toast together.

       The smiles resumed on the faces of the two of them, and they didn’t even show any sort of moodiness in front of Wen Chun’s parents. They toasted their relatives and friends with wine glasses all the way.

       When they got to their table, Li Zhenruo realized that Li Zhentai was drinking very boldly today, holding the white wine without blinking and lifting the glass and drinking it all. Wen Chun still had that gentle and gentle appearance, holding the wine glass in her hand, and then followed Li Zhentai to the next table.

       After a while, Li Zhenran came over. He first glanced at Yue Zijia next to Li Zhenruo, then sat down and asked, “Where’s Zhu Kai?”

       Li Zhenruo said, “I don’t know, it seems that he left first.”

       Li Zhenran picked up Li Zhenruo’s cup and took a sip of water, and said, “Then he’d better go farther, I’m afraid dad is going to kill him.”

       Li Zhenruo asked softly, “What’s going on?”

       Li Zhenran leaned into his ear and said, “Someone saw with his own eyes that Zhu Kai moved the USB flash drive where the photos were placed. And who else but Zhu Kai could take that kind of photo?”

       After he said that, Li Zhenran greeted the people at the same table, saying that he had something to do first.

       Li Zhenruo said quickly, “I’ll go with you.” Then he said to Yue Zijia, “Zijia jie, I’ll go first, enjoy your meal.”

       Yue Zijia smiled and nodded, “Okay.”

       Li Zhenruo followed Li Zhenran and left the restaurant in a hurry. After getting in the car, he hurriedly asked, “Are you looking for Zhu Kai?”

       Li Zhenran started the car, turned his head to look at Li Zhenruo and said, “Dad is angry, someone has to go back and bear his anger.”

       Li Zhenruo thought about it and said, “Shouldn’t it be the third child?”

       However, Li Zhenran changed the subject and asked him, “What are you and Yue Zijia talking about?”

       Li Zhenruo whispered, “Do you know that Yue Zijia is Li Zhentai’s mistress?”

       Li Zhenran had already driven the car out, but at this time he lightly stepped on the brakes and looked at Li Zhenruo, “The eldest’s mistress? Are you sure?”

       Li Zhenruo hesitated, “Either that or your father’s mistress.”

       Li Zhenran said, “Stop talking nonsense.”

       “Hmph,” Li Zhenruo snorted softly, “Just you wait and see.”

       They drove to Zhu Kai’s house in the city, but no one found him. For the first two days, Zhu Kai had been living in Li’s house with Erhuang, and now Erhuang was running wild in the yard.

       Li Zhenran called Wang Ma back and asked Wang Ma if Zhu Kai was back.

       Wang Ma said in a low voice, “Zhu Kai didn’t come back, it’s just that your father and the third child came back and he is teaching him a lesson.”

       Li Zhenruo thought that Li Jianglin had long known about the affair between Li Zhenzi and Wen Chun. He had pretended not to know and probably wanted to cover up the incident. Unexpectedly, he had to come forward to teach Li Zhenzi a lesson now that things have come to light.

       If you think about it this way, Li Zhenruo felt that Li Jianglin was not so concerned about Li Zhentai’s affairs.

       When Li Zhenruo even entered the gate, he lowered his head to prevent the surveillance camera from taking pictures of him. After Li Zhenran parked the car, he saw the cat running down and went around to the back and climbed the window into the house.

       When Li Zhenran entered the room, he saw Li Jianglin sat on the sofa with a serious face and his hands on the crutch’s dragon head, while Li Zhenzi was standing beside him. It seemed that he planned to kneel down, but when he saw Li Zhenran walking in, his slightly bent legs straightened again.

       Li Zhenruo came in directly from the window on the second floor. In a hurry to watch the show, he ran down the stairs to the first floor, but did not have the time to brake, and tumbled all the way from the stairs to Li Zhenran’s feet.

       Li Zhenran looked at him coldly and said, “Are you stupid?”

       Li Zhenruo quickly got up and saw Li Jianglin glancing at them, obviously looking a little unhappy. He immediately hid behind Li Zhenran.

       Li Zhenran walked over to the sofa and sat down, and said, “Zhu Kai is not here. So I guess it’s impossible to find him anytime soon.”

       Li Jianglin took a deep breath to calm down. Compared with Zhu Kai, naturally what Li Zhenzi did was the most unethical thing in this matter. If it wasn’t for him seducing Wen Chun, it was meaningless for Zhu Kai to secretly take more photos of them.

       Li Zhenzi felt embarrassed, he was not as casual and free as Zhu Kai. Because Zhu Kai didn’t care about the Li family’s things even a penny, but Li Zhenzi did. Although his interest in Yunlin was limited, Yunyi’s stock share was mostly in Li Jianglin’s hands, and Yunyi was closely related to Yunlin. To be honest, he thought about the possibility of being discovered, but he didn’t expect to be exposed on such an occasion, and he felt somewhat embarrassed.

       That photo flashed by, but didn’t Yu Bingwei beside him recognize him at a glance? Even Su Yao probably guessed it to some extent, and in addition to Li Jianglin, he has to face Li Zhentai next. There was no deep hatred between him and Li Zhentai, and seducing Wen Chun was pure cheapness, but in this way, their relationship was considered to be finished.

       Li Zhenruo analyzed Li Zhenzi’s thoughts in his heart and wished he could pass on the sentence “Are you stupid” that Li Zhenran said to him just now to his third brother.

       Li Zhenzi said, “Dad, I’m going to apologize to eldest brother.”

       Li Jianglin sneered, “Do you think your eldest brother can accept your apology?”

       Li Zhenzi lowered his head and said nothing.

       Li Zhenruo leaned up and looked up at his face secretly.

       Li Zhenzi took a deep breath and said, “I will try my best.”

       Li Jianglin still smiled coldly.

       At this time Li Zhenran said, “Dad, whether the eldest brother accepts it or not, the third child still has to apologize to the eldest brother.”

       Li Jianglin also understands this in his heart, but this apology was definitely meaningless. Li Zhentai would not forgive Li Zhenzi, and may not even forgive Wen Chun. Although the wedding was completed under his insistence today, what would become of this family in the future, no one would know.

       “Sigh…” Li Jianglin closed his eyes and shook his head slowly. His back that had always been straight finally leaned back weakly.

       “Dad,” Li Zhenran advised him, “Just go and rest.”

       Li Jianglin stood up and left the sofa on crutches, but instead of going back to the room, he walked outside.

       Li Zhenzi took a step forward, and Li Jianglin pointed at him and said, “Don’t follow me.”

       Li Zhenran stood up and grabbed Li Zhenzi’s arm, and said, “Go and rest.”

       At this moment, Li Zhenruo looked up at Li Zhenran and hesitantly followed Li Jianglin to the outside.

       Li Jianglin’s back looked somewhat crooked. He had bad legs and feet, but his back has always been straight, which makes him look very energetic. Only today, a word popped out of Li Zhenruo’s head: the shadow was waning.

       They walked to the swimming pool, and Li Jianglin stopped. He slowly sat down on the deck chair by the swimming pool. Not long after sitting down, Zhu Kai’s Erhuang ran over excitedly and wagged his tail at him.

       Li Zhenruo thought Li Jianglin would be angry, but unexpectedly he saw him gently touch Erhuang’s head.

       Erhuang wagged his tail and lay down beside him.

       Li Jianglin also saw Li Zhenruo at this time and waved to him.

       Li Zhenruo thought that he wasn’t a dog, but it didn’t stop him to walk toward Li Jianglin, and stopped at his feet. He jumped onto his lap, and sat down in half a circle.

       Li Jianglin touched the top of his head with his hand.

       Li Zhenruo felt very comfortable, but suddenly felt a little sad, and thought: Why are you not my father?

       That night, when Li Zhentai came back, he was very drunk.

       Wen Chun originally helped him into the room, but as soon as he entered the living room, he vigorously pushed Wen Chun away and shouted bluntly, “Get out!”

       Wen Chun’s face changed again and again, but she never said anything.

       In the living room, the Li family were all there. The door leading to the side building was locked, and no other workers in the family were there. Only one Wang Ma looked at them with some difficulty.

       As he saw that Li Zhentai pushed Wen Chun, Li Zhenzi couldn’t help but took a step forward and said, “Eldest brother, don’t do this. Just take it out on me if you’re angry.”

       “You?” Li Zhentai looked at him with a sneer, stumbled two steps and rushed over, grabbed the front of his shirt with one hand, and punched him in the face with the other hand.

       Li Zhentai probably did his best with this punch, but Li Zhenzi didn’t resist. As a result, his whole body was almost twisted by him, and then Li Zhentai was pulled over and kicked in his lower abdomen.

       Li Zhenran got up quickly, went up to hold Li Zhentai, stopped him and said, “Eldest brother, stop fighting! Do you want to kill the third child?”

       Li Zhentai struggled violently, “Let go!”

       Bloodshot overflowed from Li Zhenzi’s lips, and half of his face quickly became red and swollen. However, the most painful thing was probably the kick Li Zhentai gave him, causing him to bend over in pain.

       Wen Chun looked at them in horror and anxiety, tears could not be restrained from falling down, but she never said a word.

       Li Zhenruo was lying on the back of the sofa quietly at first but also stood up restlessly at this time.

       Wang Ma wiped away Wen Chun’s tears beside her. She couldn’t hold back. She came to support Li Zhenzi and said to Li Zhentai, “Don’t fight, he is your brother after all.”

       Li Zhentai let go of Li Zhenzi’s clothes. The smell of alcohol was very strong on his breath. He was gasping for breath and barely standing still with Li Zhenran’s help, and said to Li Jianglin, “I want a divorce.”

       Wen Chun’s eyes were red. She looked at Li Zhentai and didn’t object.

       Li Jianglin shook his head slowly, “I don’t agree.”

       Li Zhentai was a little emotional, “Why not? She gave me a cuckold before she got married! Well, I could put up with it in front of so many people today. Do you want me to endure it for the rest of my life?”

       Li Jianglin looked at Wen Chun, “Xiao Chun, let me ask you, do you still have contact with the third child?”

       Wen Chun shook her head, “I’ve broken up with him,” she said, “Dad, I’m sorry.”

       Li Jianglin leaned on his crutch and said to Li Zhentai, “Did you hear what she said?”

       Li Zhentai sneered, “Do you think I can trust such a woman?”

       Li Jianglin said, “She is your wife.”

       Li Zhentai suddenly laughed twice, “My wife? If my wife has a child in the future, I’m afraid I don’t know if it’s mine! Oh, yes, of course! You wouldn’t care. Anyway, if worst comes to worst, it was the third’s child, as long as it’s not the fourth. Yes, they are all your grandsons!”

       When Li Zhenruo heard his words, his heart sank suddenly.

       Li Jianglin was also angry, stood up, and shouted, “Zhentai!”

       Li Zhenran supported Li Zhentai’s arm and tightened it, and said solemnly, “Eldest brother, you’ve had too much to drink, what are you talking about!”

       Li Zhentai also knew that it was a bit too much to mention Li Zhenruo to anger Li Jianglin, so he gasped and fell silent.

       Li Jianglin’s crutches slammed hard on the ground and he loudly said, “I have the final say in this family, I’m not allowing the divorce! Either you accept it, or get out of my way. Just say that you are not the son of Li Jianglin, and never come back to the Li family again. Just do whatever you want in the future!”

       For a moment, everyone in the family fell silent.

       After a while, Li Zhentai pushed Li Zhenran away, stood up straight and said to Li Jianglin, “Okay, I know that I was not as good as them in your heart since I was a child, and I can’t even be compared to that wild bastard of the fourth child. I understand!”

       After speaking, Li Zhentai turned around and walked outside with vain steps.

       “Zhentai!” Wang Ma called his name.

       Li Zhentai did not respond. He opened the door and walked out.

       Li Zhenruo couldn’t help looking at Li Jianglin and saw that his face was cold, but one of his hands trembled slightly, and he raised his crutch and pointed at Li Zhenzi, “You, get out of here too, I don’t want to see you.”

       Li Zhenzi still had a bruised face and looked miserable. As he heard what Li Jianglin said, he raised his hand to cover his lower abdomen with a painful expression and walked outside.

       Wang Ma took a step forward, but in the end, did not have the heart to stop him.

       Wen Chun seemed to suddenly come to her senses. She glanced at Li Jianglin and probably wanted to leave.

       Li Jianglin said to her, “Go upstairs to rest and we’ll talk about it tomorrow.”

       Wen Chun hesitated, nodded, and said, “Dad, I’ll go up first.”

       In the end, only Li Zhenran was left to help Li Jianglin back to the room.

       Until Li Jianglin was lying on the bed, he patted the back of Li Zhenran’s hand, who was covering him with the quilt, and said, “Behave yourself.”

       Li Zhenran nodded, “Dad, have a rest.”

       After turning off the lights and coming out of Li Jianglin’s room, Li Zhenran saw his cat sitting in a daze in front of the stairs, so he stepped on his tail lightly.

       Li Zhenruo looked back at him.

       Li Zhenran bent down, picked him up, and walked upstairs.

Chapter 44

       They came out of Li Jianglin’s ward. Li Zhenran walked in front, and Li Zhenruo followed him closely.

       After they entered the elevator, Li Zhenran said, “You act innocent enough in front of your grandfather.”

       Li Zhenruo thought at first that the “your grandfather” Li Zhenran said was referring to himself but later realized that he was referring to Li Jianglin. He couldn’t help but say, “Enough, I just accidentally said the wrong thing, you really want me to regard you as a father, huh?”

       Li Zhenran laughed and raised his hand to touch Li Zhenruo’s head.

       In order to facilitate Li Zhenruo to change his form and changed his clothes, Li Zhenran still did not let the driver drive but chose to drive himself.

       As they sat in the car, Li Zhenruo thought about it and said, “Then, have you gotten in touch with Luo Fei?”

       Li Zhenran looked calm, “Luo Fei’s side is good.”

       After a moment of silence, Li Zhenruo said, “How long will your father stay in the hospital?”

       Li Zhenran said, “He won’t stay for more than two days, eldest brother’s wedding is less than two weeks away.”

       Li Zhenruo counted the time after hearing the words, only to find that the wedding of Li Zhentai and Wen Chun was really less than two weeks. He couldn’t help but feel a little emotional. He didn’t expect Li Zhentai to be married. Perhaps he would have his children in a blink of an eye.

       His brothers have grown up, but he was the only one who stayed at the age of twenty-three forever.

       When he found that his cat was suddenly silent, Li Zhenran reached out and rubbed his head, “What?”

       Li Zhenruo shook his head.

       As Li Zhenran expected, Li Jianglin insisted on being discharged after staying in the hospital for less than a week. He said that he just had some old man problems. Anyway, as long as he was careful not to have an attack in the future, there would be no major problems.

       After he visited Li Jianglin, Li Zhenruo suddenly felt that he could enter and leave Li Zhenran’s office justifiably. From time to time, he followed Li Zhenran to the company for a walk, and most of the time he stayed at Li’s house.

       Because the wedding was about to be held, Wen Chun and Li Zhentai were often at home, and Li Zhenruo couldn’t help but want to keep an eye on them.

       One day, Li Zhentai accidentally dropped his phone on the sofa in the living room. When Li Zhenruo saw his phone screen flicker, he couldn’t help but look closer and saw that someone sent a text message.

       The content of the text message was: See you tonight.

       It didn’t say the time or place, and Li Zhenruo didn’t know if there was a summary of the previous situation.

       The sender’s name was: Y.

       Y? Who? Yue Zijia?

       When Li Zhenruo heard Li Zhentai’s footsteps going downstairs, he quickly ran to the sofa’s armrest to plop down and put his face back on his paws.

       That night, sure enough, Li Zhentai didn’t go home for dinner.

       Wen Chun was at home, and Li Zhenran asked her, “Eldest brother went out alone?”

       She smiled and said, “Yeah, he said there was something going on, I don’t know where he went.”

       Li Zhenruo rolled the cat foods into his mouth with his tongue. He felt that Li Zhentai must be going to meet his mistress. The husband and wife were unexpectedly both adulterous couples.

       Even so, the wedding of Li Zhentai and Wen Chun was held as scheduled.

       Wen Chun’s parents were very traditional. All wedding procedures must follow traditional rules. The best time to join both families was also calculated by someone.

       As a cat, of course, Li Zhenruo couldn’t attend the wedding, but as Li Zhenran’s assistant Li Tuan, he could show up at the wedding in an open and fair manner.

       Because Li Zhenran wanted to accompany Li Zhentai to pick up the relatives, he got into Li Zhenran’s car early in the morning and hid in the back seat and transformed into a human figure, putting on the clothes prepared in advance. Anyway, even if he come and go like a shadow, the Li family couldn’t care less about him today. They were all busy with the wedding.

       Li Zhenran and Li Zhenzi accompanied their eldest brother to pick up the in-laws, while Zhu Kai directly accompanied Li Jianglin to the restaurant.

       The best man was Li Zhentai’s friend and a son of a big entrepreneur. This convoy drove in a grandiose way to pick up the in-laws, and Li Zhenran also drove a car behind to help support the scene.

       Li Zhenruo sat on the passenger seat, lowering his head and wearing socks. After putting on his shoes, he yawned and turned his head to look out the car window.

       It was a lively morning. He didn’t know if Wen Chun really wanted to marry Li Zhentai. Anyway, when she was being hugged in her wedding dress, Li Zhenruo still saw some tears of excitement flashing in Wen Chun’s eyes.

       Li Zhenzi joined the crowd and laughed happily, without pretending.

       Wanfulai was decorated in antique Chinese style, but the wedding of Li Zhentai and Wen Chun was a Western-style wedding.

       Li Zhenruo thought it was really boring. If it were up to him, he would have a Chinese wedding, with a big red flower tied to his chest, standing at the door of the restaurant and greeting guests with a salute1, “Welcome! Welcome!”

       He kept walking forward absentmindedly, and suddenly bumped into Li Zhenran’s back.

       Li Zhenran turned to look at him, and Li Zhenruo complained, “Why did you stop suddenly?”

       Li Zhenran raised a hand and grabbed his face, pulling him in front of him.

       Li Zhenruo said in a low voice, “Let go! Let go!” He didn’t want his swollen face to be seen by everyone later.

       At this wedding banquet, Li Zhenruo met a lot of acquaintances. Most of them were relatives and friends of the Li family and most of Li Zhentai’s friends that he knew.

       Li Jianglin was also in a suit and leather shoes today. His white hair was meticulously combed, he was leaning on a crutch in his hand, and had a smile on his face. He stood with Wen Chun’s parents, and when all the guests arrived, they greet Li Jianglin first.

       Zhu Kai stood not far behind Li Jianglin and was looking left and right when he suddenly saw Li Zhenruo next to Li Zhenran. He walked in this direction and said with a smile, “Zhenran, are you not going to introduce him to me?”

       Li Zhenran then said to Zhu Kai, “This is my new intern assistant, Jason; this is my little uncle, called Zhu Kai.”

       Li Zhenruo shook hands with Zhu Kai and said, “What a young uncle.”

       Zhu Kai laughed out loud at his words, and Li Zhenruo didn’t know what he was happy about.

       Fortunately, Li Zhenruo was familiar with him, so he ignored him and treated him as a lunatic.

       At this time, the music played by the band gradually became quieter, and the wedding host took the microphone to the stage. Today, a well-known TV host, who hosts entertainment programs that was extraordinarily funny and humorous was invited.

       He came to the stage and said a few words to shift the atmosphere and announced that the wedding was about to start.

       So Li Zhenran and Li Zhenruo sat down at the nearest table, and Zhu Kai just sat next to Li Zhenruo.

       For today’s wedding, although the preparations were a little rushed, the Li family spent a lot of money. Li Zhentai was Li Jianglin’s eldest son, and he was the first among the other children in the generation line to get married, which was naturally a big deal for the Li family, and at the same time, Li Jianglin also wants to give more reputation to his old friend.

       Although Wen Chun’s family conditions were superior, compared to the Li family, there was still a big gap. Her parents pay attention to their reputation, and Li Jianglin has instructed his sons to give the Wen family this honour so that they could feel that their daughter was married in a graceful manner.

       So not only was the whole wedding scene luxuriously decorated, but the wedding steps were also a bit complicated and lengthy.

       Li Zhenruo couldn’t make himself really excited for Li Zhentai. When the host pulled Li Zhentai to chat, he began to get distracted.

       At this moment, Zhu Kai suddenly leaned into his ear and whispered, “Today’s wedding will be very exciting, please pay attention.”

       Li Zhenruo was stunned, he looked at Zhu Kai vigilantly, and a thought suddenly popped up in his heart: Did he recognize me? It was just that after Zhu Kai finished saying this, he turned back to look at the front with great interest, and Li Zhenruo thought that maybe he thought too much.

       So what’s the point of Zhu Kai saying that to him?

       Looking at Zhu Kai’s expression, according to Li Zhenruo’s understanding of him for many years, he felt that Zhu Kai was looking forward to something. But what is he looking forward to? Everyone knew the steps of this wedding in advance. There was nothing that Zhu Kai could look forward to. Could it be that he did something in the middle, and then he was excited to show off to people that he grabbed Li Zhenruo who happened to be sitting next to him and said that?

       What will Zhu Kai do?

       At that time, Li Zhenruo thought it was a little prank, and Zhu Kai was sometimes keen on these meaningless things. But it was really inappropriate for this occasion today, right?

       As a result of what he said just now, Li Zhenruo couldn’t help but get nervous.

       The wedding went on in order. Wen Chun, who was wearing a wedding dress, entered the area holding his father’s hand, and then was handed over to Li Zhentai.

       Li Zhenruo’s eyes followed Wen Chun’s slow pace and accidentally noticed Yue Zijia sitting opposite.

       Yue Zijia also wore a beautiful little dress, with delicate and decent makeup, and her expression was normal.

       Not far from Yue Zijia’s side, he saw Li Zhenzi, and with Li Zhenzi was Yu Bingwei. When the bride entered, Li Zhenzi turned his head and whispered to Yu Bingwei, and Yu Bingwei showed a gentle smile.

       Li Zhenruo picked up his cup of tea and took a shallow sip.

       The wedding has reached the most sensational stage. The huge projection screen began to display a group photo of Li Zhentai and Wen Chun, including a wedding photo and a daily photo of the two of them. Words from acquaintance to acquaintance, promises to love each other. There was even a photo of the two of them when they were children. What an enviable couple.

       Beside him, Zhu Kai rested one elbow on the table, and lightly rubbed his lips with his fingers.

       Li Zhenruo felt that his whole body was a little tense, so he couldn’t help but start to pay attention to the stage nervously.

       Suddenly, the large screen, which had always been warm tones, suddenly dimmed. In order to show the slideshow, the lights in the entire banquet hall were dimmed. When the screen went dark, everyone was a little strange, and the place started to be a little restless.

       Soon everyone noticed that it was only because the photo was changed to a dim tone, and the photo was blurred because of the magnification, but it could be seen that in the dark night, a man in pyjamas hugged a woman in suspender pyjamas from behind.

       The photo flashed by like other photos, because it was just the back, many people didn’t see it clearly, they just thought it was a photo of Li Zhentai and Wen Chun. At most, people just found it strange why such a blurry photo was chosen.

       But the Li family members at the scene, especially the parties involved, could see it clearly. Although the photo just now was very dark, it could still be seen clearly by the ambiguous light. The background of the photo was the dining room on the first floor of the Li family’s house. It was definitely true that the woman was Wen Chun, and the man, even if he was only seen from the back and pyjamas, they could clearly tell that it was Li Zhenzi.

       The photo disappeared in a flash, but the expressions of everyone in the Li family changed.

       Li Zhenruo noticed that even Li Zhenran frowned, not to mention Li Zhentai and Wen Chun on stage.

       Only Zhu Kai beside him covered his mouth and lowered his head with a muffled laugh, then let go of his hand and made a serious expression. Li Zhenran glanced at him, stood up and walked towards Li Jianglin.

       Li Zhenruo was a little confused. He still remembered what happened that night. He saw Li Zhenzi and Wen Chun cheating in the dining room on the first floor. He also remembered that Zhu Kai found out and took pictures at that time.

       But after a long time, Zhu Kai has not exposed this matter. He thought that Zhu Kai just told Li Jianglin privately, but he did not expect such a thing to be done on such an occasion today.

       He knew that Zhu Kai had always desired to see the world be plunged into chaos, but he still felt that Zhu Kai had done too much, and Li Jianglin might not let it go.

       Li Zhenruo turned to look at Li Jianglin and saw that although Li Jianglin still maintained his expression, the hand holding the crutch was obviously very tightened, and even trembled slightly.

       He whispered a few words to Li Zhenran who walked over. Li Zhenran nodded and turned around to walk towards the side of the ceremonial platform where the wedding was held.

       Li Zhentai was also about to lose his composure. Li Zhenruo guessed that he was in a complicated mood, and he must have wanted to slap Wen Chun hard, but at the same time, he was worried about his reputation and didn’t want others to see it.

       Li Zhenran walked to the ceremony table, called Li Zhentai over, and then whispered a few words in his ear. Li Zhentai heard the words and looked in the direction of Li Jianglin.

       The host was somewhat baffled, waiting for the groom to come on stage to kiss the bride. Even though the bride kept silent, she raised her head slightly and straightened her back.

       When Li Zhentai returned to the stage, under the guidance of the host, he pulled Wen Chun’s shoulder and kissed her on the cheek.

       Wen Chun reluctantly curled the corners of her mouth, not even showing a smile.

       At this time, there was another person with an ugly face. Li Zhenruo looked toward Li Zhenzi and saw that his face was slightly pale. Everyone on the stage noticed the strangeness, but not many could relate to that one photo just now. Some people thought that Li Zhentai lost his temper because of the wrong photo.

       But Li Zhenzi had two people who were familiar with him, one was Su Yao, who was looking at Li Zhenzi with a frown; the other was Yu Bingwei. Li Zhenruo saw Yu Bingwei smiling bitterly to herself. She suddenly stood up and wanted to leave.

       Li Zhenzi grabbed her wrist, “Weiwei?”

       Yu Bingwei smiled at him, “I’m going to the bathroom.”

       Only then did Li Zhenzi let go of his hand.

       The wedding continued.

       Li Zhenran returned to the seat and sat down, leaned back slightly and raised one of his long legs.

       Li Zhenruo asked him in a low voice, “Is that Li Zhenzi just now? How is your eldest brother?”

       Li Zhenran said plainly, “Dad said the wedding will continue.”

       Li Jianglin has spoken, and with Li Zhentai’s character, he would definitely not disobey him. But it was a bit hard for him to continue to pretend to hold the wedding as if nothing was wrong when he just found that he was wearing a big green hat2a figurative symbol of a husband who was cheated by his wife.

       Zhu Kai had been in a happy mood from the beginning. He didn’t care even when he saw Li Zhenran was looking at him, he raised his glass and said, “What a wonderful wedding.”

       Even if he didn’t admit it, Li Jianglin would definitely ask someone to check, and in the end, it would always be found on his head.

       As soon as the wedding ceremony ended, Li Zhenran got up and walked toward the lounge next to the banquet hall, and Li Zhenruo quickly followed. He saw Li Zhenzi stand up and walk in the direction of Li Jianglin, it seemed that he was going to surrender himself first and strived for leniency.

       At this time, the banquet had already started. Wen Chun should have gone to change a set of clothes along with Li Zhentai to toast the guests, but after she came into the restroom from outside, she had been sitting in silence.

       Li Zhentai walked in behind and pushed everything on the dressing table to the ground.

       The bridesmaids and the makeup artist were all taken aback. Li Zhenran followed closely and said to the bridesmaids and makeup artists, “Please go out first.” He then asked the best man to leave, including Li Zhenran’s assistant, Gao Qi, to go out.

       Gao Qi was a little unhappy, but seeing that Li Zhentai was silent and did not speak, he had to go out silently.

       Li Zhenruo wanted to follow up, but Li Zhenran said to him, “Wait for me outside.”

       He was a stranger to Li Zhentai and Wen Chun, and it was not suitable for him to appear on such an occasion, so he could only obey Li Zhenran’s instructions and wait at the door.

       The bridesmaids and groomsmen were whispering, not knowing exactly what happened, but there were guesses in their hearts.

       After a while, Li Jianglin also came over with the help of Li Zhenzi.

       Li Jianglin opened the door of the lounge and went in. Before entering, he said to Li Zhenzi, “Don’t go in.” At this time, Li Zhenzi’s entry would only make Li Zhentai furious, so it was better not to show his face.

       Li Zhenzi nodded.

       After Li Jianglin entered, Li Zhenzi seemed to feel a little embarrassed when he saw the group of people surrounding him. He took out a cigarette, hesitated when he wanted to light it, and finally turned around and walked outside.

       Li Zhenruo couldn’t hear what was said inside, but he guessed that Li Jianglin must be persuading the two of them to continue the wedding. With so many people on such a big occasion, the Li family couldn’t afford to lose face.


The author has something to say:

Dog my cats3is an internet term used as a mild curse, or to express surprise, from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn., the plot has all been guessed!


Notes:
You know, just my own thoughts. It’s kinda unfair for Zhentai to be THAT mad when he was also cheating. Just because no one knows he cheats, doesn’t mean he’s frigging innocent.

Chapter 25 – Only pregnant women eat this

Chapter 25 – Only pregnant women eat this

 

After a long silence

 

Jiang Jiang suddenly rushed into the master bedroom, shoving an information bracelet into Jian Luo’s hands very hurriedly: “The marshal asked you to call him back. Hurry up and don’t delay!”

 

Jian Luo was stunned and he said, “But didn’t you say…”

 

“What’s the matter? It’s going to be too late soon!” Jiang Jiang was drenched in cold sweat: “Hurry up, Luoluo. In any case, the marshal will come for you if you don’t return anyway. Do you have the heart to watch your brother get into an unexplained accident? Will you have the heart to bear it?!”

 

“…”

 

You changed your mind too fast.

 

Jian Luo took the bracelet and really didn’t want to call Lu Shifeng. He really had nothing to say to that old dragon who wasn’t human. He felt that this was nothing for Lu Shifeng to be proud of! Obviously it was him who couldn’t be sorry enough!

 

Seeing his hesitation, Jiang Jiang was about to cry: “Luoluo, you have to leave a way out for your brother. If the marshal pursues me, you may never see me again.”

 

Jian Luo sighed: “How long has it been since you hung up?”

 

Jiang Jiang nodded frantically: “Luoluo, it’s all up to you now.”

 

Jian Luo walked into the master bedroom, closed the door and tapped the dial button. The line connected almost immediately.

 

Lu Shifeng’s voice was calm and leisurely, but also magnetic: “Hello?”

 

Jian Luo originally thought that Jiang Jiang was too cowardly, but now that he was in his shoes… 

 

At the beginning, he was very angry, but now he was afraid in a matter of seconds: “Lu Shifeng? It’s me.”

 

Lu Shifeng: “Well, have you finished taking a shower?”

 

“I’ve just washed up.” Jian Luo decided to make a quick decision: “Is there something wrong?”

 

He should hold steady.

 

As long as he is steady, he will not be afraid!

 

Lu Shifeng’s voice was a little cold: “Can you still move your body?”

 

“…”

 

Jian Luo gritted his teeth: “Thanks to you, it’s okay.”

 

“Well.” Lu Shifeng finally said, “I’ll ask Secretary Jin to pick you up.”

 

Jian Luo hurriedly replied, “No need!”

 

He was so stubborn and smooth, but finally the heated Lu Shifeng was a little unhappy. The man narrowed his eyes: “Why?”

 

It is rare for men to understand.

 

He has already hinted it so clearly, and Jian Luo doesn’t look stupid. Doesn’t he understand what he meant?

 

Jian Luo was surprised: “I have my own home to go back to. Moreover, I have already resigned from the military.”

 

Lu Shifeng frowned: “Why? Was our treatment towards you not good?”

 

“…”

 

It was not a question of being treated poorly.

 

This was……

 

Is it a matter of ethics?

 

Jian Luo simply couldn’t communicate with this man, he tried to reason a little: “Marshal, what happened last night, I think, um, since it happened, I’m not unvirtuous so you must be calling to take responsibility or compensate, but we’ll be fine. We’ve already gotten together, so now, let’s just break up. I know that you must’ve called me to discuss compensation or something, but you don’t have to, I can handle myself!”

 

There was an eerie silence on the other end of the phone.

 

After quite a while

 

Lu Shifeng said, “You don’t want to move out of Peace Paradise?”

 

There is no human who does not dream of leaving Peace Paradise, where it is crowded and cramped, the technology is backward, and life is inconvenient.

 

Jian Luo pursed his lips, and his brows furrowed: “Master Marshal, I am working for you by cooking. I sell meals, not myself. I don’t need to get anything through my body. I can understand that the accident happened because you had some physical discomfort or something. Let’s just leave it at that. Don’t contact me, I’m hanging up.”

 

The line was cut off

 

Jian Luo threw the phone aside.

 

Jiang Jiang next to him could be said to be stunned, he hesitated: “Luoluo, I have something to say, but I don’t know if I should say it or not.”

 

Jian Luo was suspicious: “What?”

 

“Well, that, you probably don’t know this but.” Jiang Jiang explained to him: “The price of land on Dark Star is 500,000 per square meter. If you want to buy a three-bedroom house, you may need about seven or eight million. Plus, you are a human being, so you’re not qualified to buy a house yet.”

 

“…”

 

Jian Luo widened his eyes.

 

“But I heard what the marshal just said and he wanted to give you a house to reside in.” Jiang Jiang started his calculations: “The property under the marshal must be a large property right within the first ring of the palace, starting at 100 million credits.”

 

 

 

Jian Luo trembled as he searched it up using the information bracelet, his eyes were red with anger: “Why didn’t you say this earlier?”

 

Jiang Jiang felt very wronged: “You didn’t give me a chance, plus you were so firm, I thought you wouldn’t have cared.”

 

I do care!

 

The f-ck?! He’s already ridden him. If he knew there would be this much money, he’d definitely gotten some as compensation!

 

Jian Luo’s expression looked like he was in deep thought. He was now regretting it. Incomparably regretful and full of regret. It was as though he had just lost a hundred million!

 

Jiang Jiang comforted him: “Forget it, maybe there is no such fate in life.”

 

Jian Luo laid down blankly on the sofa.

 

Jiang Jiang saw that he was so uncomfortable and offered a suggestion: “Okay, just take a break and watch TV. I just have some newly imported fruits in my refrigerator. I’ll give you a taste. Most of them are alien, but some are from the Spirit Valley.”

 

Jian Luo was interested: “Really? Thank you.”

 

Jiang Jiang said you’re welcome: “Although you are my employee, you are also my good brother, so let’s not be so polite.”

 

Jian Luo smiled slightly.

 

After a while, Jiang Jiang brought the fruit. Among them, there was a soft and sweet fruit that looked like cotton candy. Jian Luo took a bite: “Well, it’s a little sour.”

 

Jiang Jiang smiled: “This is abundant in the Dark Star’s Dragon Valley, where every year during this season, the dragon tree will grow a lot of this holy dragon fruit.”

 

Jian Luo thought for a while: “Why this season?”

 

“Because this season is the estrus period of the dragon clan. If a female is pregnant, she will like to eat the holy dragon fruit very much. It is also because the little dragon needs the nutrition provided by the dragon clan’s mother tree.” Jiang Jiang explained to him: “Some people in the Dark Star are orcs who can also transform into human beings, while others are just monoracial like me.”

 

Jian Luo didn’t know much about the world: “It turns out that not everyone can transform into an animal.”

 

Jiang Jiang was shocked by his ignorance: “Of course not. The status of the orcs are very high. For example, the military boss is a dragon, the high priest is a phoenix and the richest man in our country is Pixiu1A legendary winged lion in Chinese folklore., while the royal family has all their blood.”

 

Jian Luo held the holy dragon fruit as he ate it: “Those Dark Stars are really powerful.”

 

“In the past, the holy dragon fruit was in short supply, so only pregnant women could eat it.” Jiang Jiang took one for himself: “But now, we have not had any cubs for thousands of years so the holy dragon fruit is no longer in short supply. “

 

Jian Luo nodded understandingly.

 

There were only two holy dragon fruits on the table and they were gone now. Jian Luo thought it was delicious: “They should be cheap, right?”

 

Jiang Jiang smiled: “I don’t know what’s going on but originally, the sacred dragon fruit tree has not blossomed much since we had no cubs, but last night, a large area of ​​the sacred dragon fruit forest suddenly bloomed. Because many fruits came out, it now also easy to buy.”

 

Jian Luo asked, “How much is it?”

 

“Five thousand for one.” Jiang Jiang pushed his glasses up: “Do you think it’s delicious? I think it’s alright. Maybe our personal tastes are different. If you want to eat it, you can go to the official website to buy it.”

 

“…”

 

Five thousand?

 

Why don’t you just go rob someone for money?

 

Jian Luo waved his hand: “Forget it, forget it. I won’t eat it.”

 

In fact, he was quite tired and couldn’t eat anything. Now, he was even more lazy and couldn’t even move a finger.

 

After eating, he went straight to the master bedroom to rest.

 

 

The next day

 

Jian Luo returned to his house in Peace Paradise. Before, he was annoyed and too tired so he forgot to call home. Who knew that Su Liang said: “Secretary Jin called me and said that you had work to do so you won’t be back in the next two days.”

 

Jian Luo was very grateful to Secretary Jin.

 

In fact, the military is pretty good, except for Lu Shifeng who eats people.

 

“Jian Luo!”

 

A voice called to him came from the yard.

 

Jian Luo came out of the house: “Mom, what’s the matter?”

 

Su Liang turned around, still holding a letter in her hand. She said to Jian Luo, “This seems to be Moonlight’s admission letter. It probably means that you seem to have passed their vocational assessment and can officially start working at Moonlight.”

 

Jian Luo was overjoyed: “Really!?”

 

Su Liang smiled and nodded: “I’m not wrong.”

 

“Great.” Jian Luo came over and took the letter: “Did they say how much the monthly salary is?”

 

“…”

 

Su Liang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: “Mom hasn’t read it yet.”

 

Jian Luo went back with the letter by himself. Since he resigned from the military, he has been idle. Lu Shifeng has never looked for him again, and he was too busy taking care of himself and had too much free time.

 

Sitting on the sofa, he read up on Moonlight’s salary. It was 100,000 a month, which was not bad. Jian Luo was also very satisfied. The key point is that the last of the letter reads:

[The qualification for becoming a cultivator has been submitted for review]

 

A smile spread across Jian Luo’s face. This meant that he may soon have the right to grow vegetables and fruits on his own!

 

Outside

 

His younger brother and Su Liang were sitting on the sofa outside, watching the news on TV.

 

The Dark Star Channel was reporting: The production of holy dragon fruit in Dragon Valley has increased, so the marketing department has decided to open the purchase of holy dragon fruit after research. The high priest has also predicted that this year may break the Dark Star’s thousand-year-old curse of having no cubs. The blossoming of the dragon fruit tree is the best sign for.. 】

 

His younger brother was very puzzled: “Mom, is the holy dragon fruit so delicious?”

 

“It seems that only people who are pregnant with cubs will find it delicious.” Su Liang also heard people say: “Most people don’t like its taste very much. Overlooking the Dark Star’s birth rate, because Dark Star people have not had children, when they are not pregnant, most will feel that it is sour and unbearable, after eating the holy dragon fruit. As such, it is basically not usually eaten unless it’s for those ladies with cubs to enjoy. We, the local people basically can’t eat it, but there is no chance that anyone would want to eat that stuff, as it is expensive and unpalatable.”

 

The younger brother nodded in understanding.

 

Just after nodding, Jian Luo in the room pushed open the door and walked out: “Mom, I just bought two boxes of holy dragon fruit online. Did you receive the bill?”

 

“…”

 

The room suddenly fell silent

Chapter 24 – I’m never coming back again in the future!

Chapter 24 – I’m never coming back again in the future!

 

Inexplicably, his voice fell. Jiang Jiang actually felt a cold, murderous aura on the other end of the phone. It was very strong and terrifying.

 

After quite a while

 

Lu Shifeng said, “When he comes out, let him call me back.”

 

The tone of this command made Jiang Jiang wake up!

 

After hearing this, he couldn’t be Luoluo’s family. How can a family member not ask for their family’s safety and ask where they were, before asking them to call back?

 

Damn, he was 80% sure that he was the one who forced Luoluo!

 

Although Luoluo said it was not forced, even he understood!

 

Jiang Jiang covered his mouth to prevent his shock from leaking out. He was really deeply angry. He didn’t expect it to be like this. This scum still refused to let Luoluo go, and even chased after him. His behavior was outrageous. It’s abominable!

 

Lu Shifeng waited for a while, a little impatient: “Did you hear me?”

 

The fire in Jiang Jiang’s chest came up all of a sudden and he spewed: “Don’t even think about it! You are really crazy. You still want to see him?! I tell you, it is impossible in this life. Are you not worthy of understanding?”

 

“…”

 

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.

 

Lu Shifeng’s voice was indifferent: “Is that what he asked you to convey to me?”

 

“Yes!” Jiang Jiang decided to educate the scumbag: “Don’t ignore the king’s laws. Our Dark Star’s military is not useless. If you dare to come again, I will contact the military immediately and never let you go!”

 

Jiang Jiang hung up the phone in a snap.

 

At the same time, Jian Luo, who was washing up in the bathroom, encountered a hasty problem. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to bathe properly. It was mainly because he was so uncomfortable that he didn’t want to move at all.

He leaned on the wall, but it wasn’t even two steps before his legs went weak. He fell forward and fell down next to the glass coffee table. In an instant, a huge pain came and his world went so dark that he almost fainted.

 

“Ow……”

 

Jian Luo bit his lip, and when he was about to slowly stand up again when Jiang Jiang from the room rushed out: “Luoluo?!”

 

Jiang Jiang stepped forward quickly and helped Jian Luo up: “Are you alright?”

 

Jian Luo felt like he was a piece of soft mud now, he gasped lightly: “It’s nothing major, don’t worry.”

 

Jiang Jiang helped him and let him sit on the sofa: “What do you mean don’t you worry about it? Your leg seems to be bleeding.”

 

“What?” Jian Luo lay on the sofa like a dead dog: “My whole body hurts, whether it’s my legs or not, I don’t feel anything anymore.”

 

Jiang Jiang brought the medicine box over.

 

Most of the strong Dark Stars don’t use this thing, so Jiang Jiang family’s medicine box seemed to have been collecting dust.

 

The medicine box didn’t expect to be able to see the world again due to Jian Luo’s unexpected arrival.

 

Jian Luo said, “I’ll do it myself.”

 

“No, no.” Jiang Jiang dipped some ointment: “You are so pitiful as a human being, so I should help you.”

 

Jian Luo pursed his lips and smiled, pale and weak.

 

The taste of depending on others is really uncomfortable, and it is even more so when you are weak.

 

The process of applying the medicine was actually not slow. He was injured on the back of his calf. After rubbing his waist, he was basically fine. Compared to the most serious body ache, it was nothing.

 

Jiang Jiang said, “Okay.”

Jian Luo was serious and sincere: “Thank you. By the way, did you answer the phone for me just now? How is it? What did my mother say?”

 

It was okay when he didn’t mention it, but after talking about it, Jiang Jiang was indignant: “Don’t mention it. It was not your mother’s call.”

 

Jian Luo was stunned for a moment, but he was also stunned stupid: “Who else could it be?”

 

“A man.” Jiang Jiang proudly raised his chest: “I came up with a very obliging tone, but it made me angry. You don’t have to worry about it Luoluo, I have already fought back for you and told him not to come again. After that call, you don’t have to be afraid, if he dares to come to you, we will report it to the military!”

 

“…”

 

Jian Luo was silent for a moment.

 

Seeing him like this, Jiang Jiang was a little clueless: “What’s wrong?”

 

“Um…” Jian Luo still wanted to have the last glimmer of hope, his eyes were round, it was like staring into a puddle of water: “Um, Jiang Jiang, did the man you speak to sound a little cold, and maybe, did you feel that there was something not quite right?”

 

Jiang Jiang’s eyes widened: “Yes, yes, that was him.”

 

 

The room suddenly fell into silence.

 

Jian Luo covered his face, and now he has no love for life anymore. In his heart, he wanted to use his information bracelet to Baidu1China’s version of google. if Lu Shifeng’s temperament could be magnanimous, yet he also felt good that Jiang Jiang scolded him. The inner-conflict was too grueling.

 

Jiang Jiang looked at his face for a while and then turned pale: “Luoluo, what’s wrong with you?”

 

Jian Luo’s chest heaved up and down. When he finally calmed down and thought about it, maybe things weren’t so irreversible, so he said, “You didn’t say too much, right?”

 

Jiang Jiang snorted softly: “Of course not.”

 

Jian Luo let out a sigh of relief.

 

“I just told him that next time he dares to come to you, I won’t let him walk away!”

 

Jiang Jiang’s face was full of pride, which can be said to be very cool.

 

Jian Luo was silent again. He stood up tremblingly and held Jiang Jiang’s hand in pain: “Jiang Jiang, I want to know. The military should not have the right to kill people casually, right?”

 

Jiang Jiang thought he was afraid that the man would dare to pester him.

 

So he comforted Jian Luo: “Don’t worry, the military has the right to kill first and then pay later. Don’t be afraid of everything. It’s not like they can commit crimes just because they are a Dark Star.”

 

“…”

 

Thanks for the comforting words

 

Now, I am even more afraid.

 

Jian Luo was a little desperate, he choked: “Jiang Jiang, I really respect you as a man, really.”

 

Jiang Jiang said: “Don’t be afraid, Luoluo. No matter what happens, I’m your boss and your friend. I won’t abandon you and will always stand by your side.”

 

Jian Luo was very moved: “I am so moved. I didn’t know you were so loyal before. Don’t worry, I will definitely work hard on the live broadcast network and strive to carry forward our website!”

 

Jiang Jiang was a little flustered, inexplicably: “To promote it… but wasn’t that originally intended to be done?”

 

“Yeah.” Jian Luo let go of his hand and continued to lie down: “When I feel better, do you have any ingredients in your kitchen? I’ll help you cook a meal. I have nothing to repay you with, but there is still my craftsmanship…”

 

Jiang Jiang was still recalling what Jianluo said just now: “Well… Luoluo, I suddenly remembered now, it seems that you haven’t told me who that person is?”

 

Jian Luo took a deep breath: “Do you really want to know?”

 

Jiang Jiang didn’t want to.

 

But inexplicably, just now, he always felt that Jian Luo was helping him deal with things behind the scenes for him. Thinking of this, he panicked on the spot!

 

“Well, I suddenly want to know.” Jiang Jiang glanced at Jian Luo secretly: “Is it alright to say?”

 

Jian Luo nodded: “He is Lu Shifeng.”

 

“…”

 

The room suddenly became silent.

 

The expression on Jiang Jiang’s face, who was still processing his true feelings just now, suddenly solidified, and he became as stiff as a stone sculpture that couldn’t move.

 

Jian Luo: “Jiang Jiang?”

 

Jiang Jiang blinked as his face turned white. Even his words came out a little awkward: “Luoluo, you must be joking with me, right?”

 

Jian Luo nodded solemnly: “No, I’m serious.”

 

“…”

Chapter 32 – What should I do? I want to escape!

Chapter 32 – What should I do? I want to escape!

 

Locally, it was afternoon when they arrived at the airport. Xing Zhongwan walked out of the VIP lounge while chewing some gum in his mouth. He also had a large pair of sunglasses on his face. The person who came to pick them up after their flight was a woman in her thirties. The smile on her face was different from the serious Chen Ying. When she saw him, she called out to the young madam enthusiastically. With a dark face, Xing Zhongwan lowered the sleeve of his coat to cover the bracelet on his wrist.

 

Qi Yun was clearly in a good mood and his voice was not as cold when he spoke. Xing Zhongwan raised his head and looked around. Unexpectedly, he saw a familiar figure. Xing Zhongwan took off his sunglasses and thought he saw wrongly, but he didn’t expect that the man would smile politely to him after being discovered before disappearing into the crowd. Xing Zhongwan took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Cheng Zhengzhe, who replied after a while.

 

“Jiangnan is your territory. If you want to pay homage to your mother, it is impossible not to summon the people from over there. It’s better to say hello to them as early as possible. Don’t worry if I’m not in contact with you, your safety will be guaranteed.”

 

Xing Zhongwan shoved the phone into his pocket speechlessly while Qi Yun grabbed his clothes, “Let’s get in the car.” Xing Zhongwan snorted and pushed his wheelchair to the parking lot.

 

The house they lived in was in a small village. It is said that the small village has actually been developed into a private resort. The place was excellent and the facilities were complete. The most important thing was that there was also a specially-equipped small community hospital for Qi Yun’s rehabilitation. Their residence was in the center of the resort and there was a tea garden right outside their door. Xing Zhongwan liked it very much. After carrying and settling Qi Yun down on the bed, Xing Zhongwan opened the window of the room and took a deep breath. Qi Yun was a little tired and asked with half-closed eyes, “Do you like it here?”

 

Xing Zhongwan nodded repeatedly, “Yes, I like it very much. The environment is nice and the most important part is that the original style of the place was retained. How did you find this place?”

 

Qi Yun covered his aching forehead, “I don’t remember what year it was but when I heard that the place where me and my grandma lived together when I was a child was going to be demolished, I bought and rebuilt it. Only the place where we lived was kept as it was. Grandma liked it very much. Now, I’m very glad that I made this decision back then and I’m glad you like it too.”

 

Seeing him covering his forehead, Xing Zhongwan stepped forward and helped him massage it, “You can sleep now. We sat in a plane and car for the whole day today. I’ll call you when it’s time to eat.”

 

The massage Xing Zhongwan gave Qi Yun was very comfortable and he said sleepily, “I want to eat the Dragon Beard Noodles1A variety of noodles from Shandong province in China. Long and thin. you make.”

 

Xing Zhongwan frowned. Yes, you sure know the way to order me around.

 

When Qi Yun fell asleep, Xing Zhongwan went to the tea garden and brought over a bamboo chair to sit on. A long time ago, when his mother was very ill, she would talk intermittently about her childhood days. Xing Zhongwan’s eyes were a little red as his phone rang. Xing Zhongwan took a look around before taking it out.

 

“Master, are you back?” There was an elderly voice on the other end of the phone.

 

Xing Zhongwan looked up at the blue sky, “Yes, Uncle Zhong. I’ll be moving my mother’s grave back to Xing’s house in two days. Please prepare for it.”

 

There was some joy in Uncle Zhong’s voice, “The lady will finally… Oh how happy will she be to be able to finally go home. I will tell the people to prepare. Please pick a day.”

 

Xing Zhongwan smiled, “One more thing. I will stay here for a little longer this time. Don’t let anyone follow me. It’s not good if I were to be discovered.”

 

Uncle Zhong disagreed, “It’s better for someone to follow behind. No one else will find out.”

 

Xing Zhongwan felt resigned, “I’m no longer a child.”

 

Uncle Zhong on the other end respectfully said, “Even if you are in the country for only one day, we are still obligated to guarantee your safety. You can be rest assured that we will do it very discreetly and will not hinder the young master from doing things.”

 

Xing Zhongwan knew that he could not persuade this stubborn old housekeeper and gave up.

 

A cool breeze blew by and Xing Zhongwan tightened his jacket. He suddenly felt a little sleepy.

 

At dinner, Qi Yun held the bowl contentedly and ate up the bowl of noodles under Chen Ying’s surprised eyes. Xing Zhongwan chewed a radish stick in his mouth, “Is it delicious?”

 

Qi Yun nodded and wiped his mouth with the small towel on the side, “The craftsmanship is really good.”

 

Xing Zhongwan snorted coldly. You’re eating it so comfortably while my hands are almost stiff from kneading the dough.

 

“In the evening, have a rest. I’m going out for a walk.”

 

Xing Zhongwan got up and Qi Yun was taken aback, “Where are you going?”

 

Xing Zhongwan said, “Going out, of course.” Qi Yun’s face visibly fell, “I’m going too.”

 

Xing Zhongwan was puzzled, “Why are you going too? It’s inconvenient for me to take you.”

 

Qi Yun lowered his head, obviously angry and Xing Zhongwan sat back on the chair again, ” You said you’re weak. What are you going to do if you get sick? I promise I will come back sooner.”

 

Qi Yun didn’t say anything…

 

“I’ll bring you something delicious and fun?”

 

Qi Yun didn’t say anything…

 

“I’ll go out for only two hours…”

 

Qi Yun said nothing.

 

Xing Zhongwan lay on the table with a bitter face, “I’ll take you there, third young master.”

 

Qi Yun raised his head. His eyebrows were curved up. Xing Zhongwan buried his head on the table reluctantly.

 

On the other side, Chen Ying’s jaw almost dropped. This… Young Master Yun… This must be an illusion, I must be dreaming, this was not our Young Master Yun…

 

Qi Yun needed to go upstairs to change his clothes and Xing Zhongwan could only carry the man upstairs without complaint. He then picked out clothes for him to put on before carrying him downstairs and placing him in a wheelchair.

 

Qi Yun touched the collar of the shirt he was wearing and called Chen Ying over.

 

Chen Ying quickly walked over and faced Qi Yun, “Master Yun, what are your orders?”

 

Qi Yun pointed at his clothes, “Does it look good?”

 

Ah!? 

Chen Ying didn’t react for a while. After seeing that Qi Yun was frowning, he quickly said, “You’re dashing.”

 

Qi Yun’s brows stretched, “Wanwan picked it.”

 

That smug look was like saying; Look, the daughter-in-law has good taste.

 

Chen Ying was fed a mouthful of dog food 2That feeling when you’re a single dog and a couple is flexing their love in front of you.for no reason and escorted the two of them out in fear. Turning around, he wiped the sweat off his forehead. The entourage on one side was puzzled, “Secretary Chen, it’s only April. Are you feeling hot?” 

 

A trace of embarrassment flashed on Chen Ying’s face. When has he ever seen Qi Yun like this? It was already not bad that he could still maintain his composure. A hint of worry flashed through his eyes.

 

Xing Zhongwan brought Qi Yun to the night market. The night market was crowded and it was inconvenient for Qi Yun to walk, so Xing Zhongwan didn’t dare to go shopping. Instead, he found a tea shop and sat down. Qi Yun’s bodyguard was far away from them as Qi Yun would not let them follow closely.

 

Xing Zhongwan put a doll adorned with a blue floral fabric into Qi Yun’s hand, “Check this out. It’s very cute and it’s purely handmade. It looks a lot like you.” Qi Yun took the item and gently felt it with his hands. The female doll’s hair was braided and Qi Yun frowned. How is it like me?

 

“You said you wanted to go out, just to come to a night market?”

 

Xing Zhongwan took a sip of tea. “If not? Why did you think I wanted to come out? When you were resting in the afternoon, I asked around and they said that the night market here is very famous, so I wanted to come out and see it. Look, you were so adamant about coming out and I’ve brought you out but you don’t even seem happy.”

 

Qi Yun held the doll in his hand, “When I get better, I’ll come with you again.”

 

Xing Zhongwan turned his face away. When you’re better, I’m leaving.

 

“This doll is for you.” Xing Zhongwan grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds as Qi Yun carefully put the doll in his pocket and replied with an ‘ok’.

 

His neck was a little red and Xing Zhongwan wondered, Are you shy? You blush too easily.

 

As he was thinking about it, a girl selling flowers entered the place, looked around and walked towards Xing Zhongwan,

 

“Big brother, don’t you think you should buy some flowers for the pretty sister next to you”

 

Xing Zhongwan held the sunflower seeds in his hand as he looked at the round face of the girl before looking at the unknowing Qi Yun who had a puzzled look, “Is he the pretty sister you’re referring to?” He then pointed a finger at Qi Yun. The girl nodded, “Yes, I have never seen such a beautiful sister before.”

 

Xing Zhongwan was stunned for a moment and couldn’t help but laugh. Qi Yun gradually understood and his face turned a little unsightly.

 

“For the sister that you just referred to, I want all the flowers in your basket. Hahaha” The girl happily accepted the money before hopping away.

 

Xing Zhongwan took the basket of roses and put it on Qi Yun’s lap, “Here, beautiful sister. I’ll give it all to you.”

 

Qi Yun had a sullen face and didn’t speak for a long time.

 

Xing Zhongwan was in a good mood. After being called a girl by Qi Yun for so many days, he finally felt reinvigorated. As he was about to say something funny, the girl who called Qi Yun a sister hopped back, holding a bamboo-woven ring in her hand.

 

She went to Xing Zhongwan and held his hand, “Brother, brother. Mother said your girlfriend is so beautiful, so I will give you a ring. You must both become happy.”

 

Xing Zhongwan almost spit out the sunflower seeds in his mouth and there was a smile in Qi Yun’s eyes as he put a basket of roses on the table. He grabbed one out before speaking in Xing Zhongwan’s direction, “Little brother, we must become happy, hmm?”

 

Xing Zhongwan was stunned and looked at Qi Yun who was holding a rose with a smile. His eyes were unseeing and he looked forward without focus, but his fair skin contrasted with the table of red roses and he looked simply charming. Xing Zhongwan’s head throbbed and he couldn’t think straight because of a bit of bitter-sweetness in his heart.

 

Now, that beautiful fairy-like sister was holding flowers.

 

Back then, when he was young, he had innocently said: Sister, can I marry you when I grow up?

 

Now, the beautiful fairy-like sister: Little brother, we must become happy, hmm?

 

The young man’s face in his memory morphed into the current Qi Yun and Xing Zhongwan stood up suddenly, clutching his aching heart. What should I do? I want to escape!    

 


T/N: Hehe, run you may try. But do you really think he will let you go? Fuhuhu, loved translating this chapter. Perhaps it was the change in scenery. It was something different from the previous chapters, cause they got to go on a light-hearted vacation together.

 

By the way, for this month, Forced into the Deep will be updated twice a week, every Tuesdays and Thursdays. However, I’ll be giving out private early-access chapters for those who are keen on donating to my kofi 🙂 If you’re interested, check out the link below!

 

Consider liking the writer’s work or buying a kofi for me <3 who knows, might update a lil faster hehe
