Chapter 28

June 19, 2023 / / 0 Comments

       There was a lot of space in the extended car, so after Chu Yu finished speaking, he leaned on the backrest and closed his eyes to rest. After a while, Xu Ye heard rustling sounds, and the seat beside him moved.

 

       The man’s starry eyes opened slightly to see the man kneeling at his feet without an inch of clothing. A small shiver of nervousness and embarrassment washed over his pale skin as he looked at him with pursed lips and dark eyes. As Xu Ye saw the man looking at him, he straightened his back a little awkwardly.

 

       “Say what you want to say.” Chu Yu opened his mouth.

 

       Xu Ye opened his mouth in panic, “Master, I was wrong…”

 

       “I’ve heard this sentence before.” The man sat with his arms crossed. His black pupils were calm and unwavering, “I’ll only give you a minute, so you better hurry up and say something I haven’t heard before.”

 

       Xu Ye’s face was flushed red, and his eyes flickered as he eagerly said, “Master…you can punish me however you want. I promise I won’t make this kind of mistake again…can you please don’t be angry…” What made him feel alarmed was Chu Yu’s attitude. Those warmthless gazes were no different from how he was looking at the landscape outside the window.

 

       The second young master Chu raised his hand and looked at his watch, and only after a minute had passed did he speak again, “First of all, as a slave, everything about you belongs to me completely, and I can punish you in any way as a matter of course. Secondly, your assurance is meaningless to me. In the end, you know very well what has upset me. Since you did it, you should have the self-awareness to bear everything. A word of advice for you, whatever I do to you in the future, you had better not struggle unnecessarily, for that will make me even more unhappy.” After he said that, he closed his eyes again, “Stay quiet, or I will leave you naked on the road.”

 

       “…Yes, Master.” Xu Ye lowered his eyelids, hiding all his emotions.

 

       The car mat was soft, and the knees won’t hurt when kneeling. What was scary, however, was the time.

 

       The drive from Qianchuan back to City H took at least two and a half hours.

 

       Xu Ye just knelt quietly without moving. When the car stopped, Xu Ye’s legs were numb, and he couldn’t feel anything.

 

       There was a noise outside the car door, and he trembled in panic. The glass of the car window was dark, so the inside of the car could not be seen from the outside. If the driver opened the door, his naked body would be shown in front of others. There was a buzzing in Xu Ye’s head. He looked at the man in front of him with a blue face and a pleading look in his eyes, “Master, can I be allowed to put on my clothes…”

 

       Chu Yu sat leisurely and glanced at him indifferently.

 

       The sound of footsteps outside the car door was getting closer and closer, Xu Ye was so panicked that his eyes even turned red, and he kept saying, “Please… Master, please…”

 

       The drivers of the Chu family were all people with vast experience, and those who follow Chu Yu were even more clever. When he saw the second young master put down the partition screen while driving, he had already guessed what was going on in the back seat and had already notified the bodyguard to wait outside the car. Who would have the guts to pull the door without the second young master’s orders?

 

       Chu Yu was silent for a moment, then opened the window by a gap, and immediately a bodyguard waiting outside the car door came over, “Bring me the box I left in the living room, plus a blanket.”

 

       In no time at all, the items were delivered. When Chu Yu pressed the car window to take the things, the tall bodyguards looked away and did not dare to look inside. Even so, Xu Ye still shrank into a ball with his face reddened and his head bowed.

 

       “I give you the right to choose, slave.” The man put the light blanket on the back seat and then opened the cardboard box in his hand. What stood out was a brown leather collar, two fingers wide, with a ring of diamonds neatly inlaid in the centre and a small silver bell hanging from the front. Unlike the one he had worn before, this collar did not have a metal clasp, and the tightness couldn’t be adjusted. Instead, it has a snap-on silver metal interface with the English abbreviation C.Y. engraved on it. It seemed that this collar was customized according to the neck circumference.

 

       “I won’t allow you to wear clothes.” The man put the cardboard box on the seat and said clearly, “If you want to wear this blanket when you get off, put it on.”

 

       He seemed to be given a choice, but in fact, there was no room for negotiation. Chu Yu’s methods were straightforward and neat, just like when he took off his mask to declare his sovereignty in the club. He wanted to expand the scope of this game, and Xu Ye was powerless to resist.

 

       At this moment, Xu Ye’s gaze shrank suddenly as if being scalded by the collar, and he looked at the man in front of him with a pale face and some despair. This small leather collar was a mark of complete ownership, a mark that showed everyone that he belonged to someone else.

 

       After a long time, he reached out with his eyelids down to take the collar and slowly wrapped it around his fair and slender neck. With a click, it clasped. He hung his head and wrapped his naked body with a thin blanket, his bangs covered his eyes, and the line of his pursed lips was stretched even tighter.

 

       Chu Yu got out of the car and opened the door for himself on his own.

 

       There were some well-trained bodyguards and drivers standing outside the courtyard of Hanguan No. 8. Everyone’s eyes were focused on the car, and when they saw a piece of blanket slowly poking out, they all understood what was happening and moved away.

 

       Xu Ye had been kneeling for too long, and his blood flow was not smooth, so his legs had already gone numb. He couldn’t exert any strength when his feet touched the ground. During the movement, the blanket was torn off a little, exposing the entire right shoulder and collarbone, and of course, the collar around his neck. He panicked and tugged at the only cloth that could cover his body, and the silver bell trembled and jingled as he moved. With a slight flick of his feet, he was already being picked up by the man.

 

       “Ge, you are too merciless.” Chu Xuan leaned against the side of the car, squinting his eyes and teasingly, “It’s pitiful that you can’t even stand up properly.”

 

       Chu Yu glanced at him, “If you have so much free time, why don’t I ask elder brother to transfer you to Tangze to supervise the project?”

 

       Chu Xuan’s expression changed, and he said aggrievedly, “I was arrested early in the morning to be a henchman, and now I’m going to be driven away…” He complained, but he darted into the car and left, apparently fearing that he would be sent to work in a place where birds do not live.

 

       Chu Yu carried Xu Ye upstairs, kicked open the door of the guest room without saying a word, and walked straight into the bathroom before releasing his grip. Before the slave fell into the bathtub, the blanket wrapped around his body had been ripped off. The man raised his hand and threw the blanket on the floor, then lifted his jaw.

 

       Xu Ye didn’t dare to move and let the man’s hand move around his neck. He heard a soft beep, and the collar was taken off.

 

       It turned out that the collar was equipped with a fingerprint lock.

 

       Xu Ye bit his lower lip and knelt silently.

 

       Chu Yu turned the faucet to the maximum. The water poured down from the shower like pouring rain, and Xu Ye couldn’t even open his eyes, and he was slumped in the slippery bathtub. Fortunately, the water temperature was just right and not too cold.

 

       The man tossed the collar on a shelf beside him and looked at Xu Ye, “Wash yourself and come downstairs with it.”

 

       “Yes, Master.” Xu Ye’s voice seemed weak amidst the sound of water.

 

       After Chu Yu left, he leaned his head against the edge of the bathtub and sat with his face up for a while, then raised his arms to cover his eyes and sighed heavily.

 

       The ‘washing’ that man referred to was not just external cleaning. Xu Ye had been on his knees for too long before, and he was so exhausted after doing bowel cleaning and basic lubrication four times. He washed his body several times and dried it. Someone had already placed a pair of white underwear and a set of long clothes by the bed. The loose white cotton and linen texture was very comfortable to wear next to the skin without any decoration on the clothes. The V-shaped neckline was cut low, revealing his collared neck and collarbone. The trousers were lace-up and loose-fitting.

 

       He was not asked to be naked in front of others, which should be regarded as the tolerance of that man. Xu Ye breathed a sigh of relief and walked down the stairs barefoot. He stopped at the stairs on the first floor, looked at the living room occupied by some strangers with some embarrassment. He hesitated for a moment, turned around and wanted to retreat, but heard a sentence from behind, “Young Master Xu.”

 

       He turned around in surprise, looking at the middle-aged man who was holding a fruit plate and smiling at him. The man nodded slightly to him, with a respectful and gentle attitude, “This is the first time I officially meet you. I am the head butler of this house, Xiao Xun.”

 

       Chu Yu’s… butler?

 

       Xu Ye looked around the entire first floor, Uncle Ye was busy in the kitchen, and there was a young girl helping the cook by his side. The two servants who came down from the second floor saw him standing at the stairs and hurried back with their heads lowered. It was only later that he realised that there were many more people in this house than when he visited the previous few times. He used to be curious about how Chu Yu lived alone before, but now he realised that the man had deliberately let everyone leave during the weekends in consideration of his mental capacity during the training.

 

       Xu Ye pursed his lips, feeling sad and regretful. The man treated him with great care and tenderness. But he had been careless enough to make such a mess and upset the other party. If he hadn’t gone to that ‘family gathering’, the current situation would be completely different…

 

       “Hello.” Xu Ye didn’t know what to say, so he fell silent after holding back the word.

 

       Xiao Xun saw his uneasiness and said with a smile, “The young master is having afternoon tea with the guests over there. Why don’t you come over?”

 

       Xu Ye turned his head and glanced at the living room. The slight friction between the collar on his neck and the skin reminded him of his situation instantly. He lowered his eyes and said softly, “I’ll wait a while…”

 

       “Come here.” His words were interrupted by a sudden low voice. Chu Yu used a commanding tone, which also meant that there was no room for tricks. Although he didn’t mention his name, he knew who Chu Yu was calling. Xu Ye trembled when he heard the voice and raised his head to meet the man’s gaze. There was a heavy sense of oppression coming from the air in those deep black eyes.

Chapter 82

June 18, 2023 / / 1 Comment

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

       Chen Yuncheng did not speak.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

       Chen Yuncheng smiled and nodded.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

       Ning Junyan did not answer her question,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

       Shu Rong finally calmed down.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Chapter 81

June 12, 2023 / / 0 Comments

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

       Chen Yuncheng raised his hand and knocked on the door.

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

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

       Ning Zhanghong nodded.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

       Chen Yuncheng said “En”.

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

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

       Ning Zhanghong nodded, “Take care.”

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

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

       Chen Yuncheng smiled.

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

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

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

       “Leaving?” Ning Junyan asked Chen Yuncheng.

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

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

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

       Ning Junyan looked at him and didn’t speak.

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

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

       Chen Yuncheng nodded, “Let’s go.”

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

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

       Chen Yuncheng frowned slightly.

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

       Shu Rong also showed a polite smile.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

       Yu Jie covered his face and stood up straight.

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

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

Chapter 45

June 11, 2023 / / 0 Comments

       When Suo Yang opened his eyes, it was already dark, and he was in a daze for a while before realising that he had fallen asleep.

       There was only one lamp turned on in Shen Huiming’s office, and the person at the desk was frowning at the computer and revising a proposal.

       Suo Yang lay on the sofa and didn’t get up immediately, but just watched Shen Huiming quietly in the dark for a long time.

       He was obviously the person who Suo Yang had the most intimate moment with, but looking at him like this, seemed a little strange.

       This kind of strange feeling did not make Suo Yang feel uneasy, on the contrary, he felt the wonderful pleasure of discovering a new world. He had never been a person who liked to encounter new things and meet new friends, but when it comes to Shen Huiming, he was happy to feel the freshness that this person brought to him from time to time.

       He just stared at him for a while, then got up and rubbed his sore neck.

       As soon as Suo Yang moved, Shen Huiming immediately looked up at him.

       “Just woke up?”

       Suo Yang smiled, “Well, this sofa is quite comfortable.”

       Shen Huiming got up, walked over, crouched down beside Suo Yang’s legs and looked up at him.

       “What’s wrong?” Suo Yang asked.

       Just after he asked, Shen Huiming suddenly came up to him and kissed him.

       “Nothing, I just want to take advantage of the opportunity.” Shen Huiming lingered before standing up and turning on the light.

       “You’ve been working?” Suo Yang also stood up and stretched his shoulders.

       “Well, I thought I’d get it done quickly so we could go home.”

       Suo Yang glanced at the time and found that it was already past eight o’clock, “How’s the progress? Will it be a while yet?”

       Shen Huiming said apologetically, “It will take a while, I really shouldn’t have asked you to come with me.”

       Suo Yang didn’t care how long he waited, anyway, wherever he was, it was the same—he would’ve fallen asleep just the same.

       “Are you hungry?” Suo Yang asked him, “I’ll go downstairs and get some food, so you can eat and rest a little.”

       “I planned to take you out to eat after I finished my work…”

       Suo Yang gently squeezed his shoulder, “I’ll go downstairs and take a look around, you should finish your work.”

       It was common for Shen Huiming to work overtime, and it was strange not to work overtime. However, when he used to work overtime and stay up late, at most he dragged his assistant to accompany him. Sometimes the two of them would quarrel over a detail of a plan, like killing enemies on the battlefield, and it had never been this cozy.

       He took Suo Yang’s hand, “Thank you for your hard work.”

       Suo Yang smiled, “It’s still harder for you.”

       Suo Yang went downstairs, Shen Huiming stretched his waist and continued to work.

       Shen Huiming’s company was in a good location, and when he went downstairs, there were quite a few restaurants nearby.

       When Suo Yang went downstairs, he searched and found a restaurant with a good reputation on the internet. He packed a few dishes and took them home.

       As he walked back with the packed bag, Suo Yang looked up at the office building.

       It was almost nine o’clock in the evening, and the office building was still brightly lit, with lights on every floor.

       This was the world they lived in, and no one had it easy.

       But even so, everyone was still working hard to move forward.

       Thinking about it this way, it was a bit tragic.

       He looked towards the ninth floor, where Shen Huiming was sitting was the only office with the light on.

       Suo Yang looked at the floors below for a while, then stepped up and walked into the office building.

       He couldn’t make Shen Huiming wait too long, and he didn’t want the other party to wait too long either.

       On the elevator, Suo Yang raised his arms and looked at the dishes he had packed through the bag. He didn’t know if Shen Huiming would like these dishes. He hoped that the other party would like them and that his hard-working boyfriend could enjoy his meal.

       When Suo Yang came back, Shen Huiming was about to make a cup of coffee, and the two happened to meet in the corridor.

       “Let’s eat first.” Suo Yang grabbed Shen Huiming’s hand and pulled him back, “Eat before you drink.”

       Shen Huiming was smiling as he was pulled by Suo Yang and returned to the office obediently.

       Three dishes, two bowls of rice.

       Suo Yang took the food out of the bag, and Shen Huiming went to the water dispenser to fetch two glasses of water.

       “Not bad,” Shen Huiming sat next to him, “This restaurant has the best taste around here.”

       When Suo Yang heard what Shen Huiming said, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said proudly, “I checked it online before I went.”

       Shen Huiming smiled, “Clever.”

       The two sat on the sofa to eat. Although this restaurant had good reviews on the internet, and Shen Huiming also said that it tasted good, Suo Yang felt that this restaurant’s chef skills might be a bit inferior compared to Shen Huiming’s cooking skills.

       He didn’t know if this was the so-called ‘love filter’, but he did prefer the dishes made by Shen Huiming.

       As they ate, the two chatted softly.

       Shen Huiming talked to Suo Yang about work matters—various project proposals, meetings and negotiations.

       Suo Yang asked, “You are the boss, why do you need to write the plans?”

       He had never worked in this kind of business, so he really didn’t know much about it.

       “How should I put it?” Shen Huiming took a sip of water, “It was more reassuring to do everything by myself. But it was not a good thing for me to do so, since the people under me will never be able to take care of themselves.”

       Suo Yang nodded, he felt that it was really tiring for Shen Huiming to be like this.

       “In fact, they did a good job, but I just don’t feel at ease. I have to follow every project. Even when they come up with a plan, I have to read it word by word, and circle the problematic ones for them to change.”

       “So much work.” Suo Yang didn’t expect Shen Huiming’s job to be like this.

       “Once you get used to it, it’s just as usual.” Shen Huiming smiled, “It used to be even more difficult. In the beginning, when the company was registered, there were only two people working with me. The three of us supported the company’s work. There is no distinction between bosses and employees, and we had to do everything ourselves.”

       Starting from scratch was easier said than done, and the hardships and pressures involved were unimaginable to those who had never experienced it before.

       “When the company grows bigger and more outstanding people join, I will slowly be able to let go.” Shen Huiming deliberately teased him, “Do you want to consider coming to our company? A high salary is offered, and the job description is to work with me every day so that I can watch you de-stress.”

       Suo Yang knew he was joking, so he teased him with a smile, “A high salary? How high?”

       “I’m giving you the owner of this company. Don’t you think this salary is high enough?”

       Suo Yang tried his best not to laugh, then bit his chopsticks and looked at him thoughtfully.

       Shen Huiming asked, “What are you thinking?”

       “Thinking about how much you are worth.”

       Shen Huiming laughed out loud, “How much do you think I’m worth?”

       Suo Yang thought about it seriously, and then said, “Priceless.”

       A priceless treasure that couldn’t be exchanged for a thousand pieces of gold.

       In such a big world, it is so rare to meet such a person.

       Obviously, the two were joking, but there was something heartwarming in the way they said it.

       Shen Huiming put down his chopsticks, took a sip of water, and suddenly pulled Suo Yang over for a kiss.

       Suo Yang was a little surprised at first but quickly responded. The two kissed on the sofa in the office for a while, and Shen Huiming said, “Why do I like hearing you praise me so much?”

       “Then let me praise you more,” Suo Yang looked at him with a smile, “If you’re in a good mood, ate a lot, and work hard when you’re full, we’ll go home early.”

       Shen Huiming hugged the man in his arms and let out a long sigh of relief.

       This feeling was really good, this love talk was making him happier than he imagined.

       “Let me tell you something.” Shen Huiming looked in the direction of the window, and the big glass window reflected the two hugging each other.

       “Okay, tell me.”

       “At that time we went to New York, and we almost missed each other.” Shen Huiming said, “My assistant originally booked me the previous flight, but something happened and it was delayed, so I had to change it. If I hadn’t changed it then, maybe we would have still met later, but how we would have developed, it’s all uncertain.”

       Indeed.

       Everyone knew about the butterfly effect.

       A butterfly flapping its wings in the rainforest could cause a tornado in Texas two weeks later.

       Not to mention a missed encounter.

       “The time I saw you, it was really…” Shen Huiming smiled, “Sort of just because of your appearance?”

       Suo Yang also laughed, “So straightforward?”

       “Because it sounds a bit hypocritical to say it’s love at first sight. I’m simply attracted by your appearance.”

       “You are honest.”

       “I must be honest with you,” Shen Huiming said, “but I can guarantee that you are the only one who has made me fall in love over the years, so I’m not that superficial, am I?”

       Suo Yang didn’t make a sound, but his eyes were always full of smiles.

       He liked being hugged by Shen Huiming and listening to Shen Huiming talk.

       Two people from completely different worlds were hugging and chatting together as if the two worlds were slowly mingling.

       “Let me ask you a question.” Shen Huiming smiled self-deprecatingly, “Why do I have so many questions today?”

       “Ask away.” Suo Yang was willing to answer as many questions as possible.

       “How did I stand out from the crowd of suitors?” Shen Huiming let go of him, and looked into those smiling eyes, “Tell me about it and make me proud.”

       The two were very close, and this scene of exchanging heartfelt affection was a bit overly cozy.

       “That night in Moscow, you made me feel horrible.”

       “Horrible?”

       “En.” Suo Yang paused for a moment, lowered his eyes, and looked at his hands.

       His hand slowly reached out to hold Shen Huiming, and the two of them clasped their fingers tightly.

       “I didn’t know that someone could see through my strange thoughts at a glance.” Suo Yang said, “It’s like the most difficult lantern riddle I devised was solved by you, and suddenly I met my soulmate.”

       He raised his head and looked at Shen Huiming, “I watched a drama before, and there was a line that I still think is the truth of life.”

       “What lines?”

       “In our lives, encountering love and sex was not rare, but what was rare was encountering understanding.” Suo Yang said, “I didn’t realise before that I was so desperate to be understood, and that stormy night you touched my soft spot straight away.”

       Suo Yang smiled, and continued, “Also, when the sun came out, you secretly held my hand, and I was…a bit reluctant to let you go.”

       Shen Huiming said in surprise, “You were awake then?”

       “Well, I know you held my hand.” Suo Yang said, “At that time, felt that my heart was captured by you.”

Chapter 27

June 9, 2023 / / 1 Comment

       How did they get here?

 

       At this time too…

 

       Xu Ye didn’t know what expression he had on his face at this moment. He only felt that the blood in his body had frozen and rapidly lost its temperature. He stood stiffly at the door, watching Xu Ting and Song Wanhua’s respectful and polite flattery to the visitor, watching the polite but indifferent smile on Chu Yu’s face, watching him walking towards him step by step. It was as if a sticky paste had been poured into his head, and he couldn’t move anymore.

 

       “What are you doing here?” Xu Ting accompanied Chu Yu to the front of the building. He saw Xu Ye standing at the door with a dazed expression on his face, scolded him in a low voice, and turned to introduce Chu Yu, “Second Young Master, this is my son, Xu Ye.”

 

       Xu Ye trembled as if waking up from a dream, his eyes trembled, and he looked at the man in panic.

 

       Chu Yu stood under a few steps and looked towards him. His eyes were light and distant, “I remember we met at the hospital once before, didn’t we?”

 

       Xu Ye’s heart stopped suddenly. He moved his lips but said nothing. The atmosphere was momentarily awkward. Xu Ting immediately came to the rescue, “This is the boy who offended the third young man with his recklessness and ignorance. The Second Young Master didn’t blame him and would give away the painting as a gift. Your magnanimity is truly admirable.”

 

       Chu Xuan smiled moderately behind him and asked Song Wanhua on the side, “Uncle Song, does this house belong to you?”

 

       “I built it ten years ago and have since renovated it. The main reason is that the environment here is nice and quiet, which is suitable for the elderly like us to recuperate.” Song Wanhua replied.

 

       “I think this is not only suitable for the elderly to maintain their health but also very suitable for young people to have a tryst.” Chu Xuan’s eyes were fixed on Xu Ye, and he arched his eyebrows in a meaningful smile, “I have long heard that the two families are interested in tying the knot. So it seems that the two heirs are indeed a good match.”

 

       These words made Xu Ting and Song Wanhua laugh. Song Wanhua quickly took the opportunity to solicit, “If the two of them do become a couple, we must invite you to a wedding banquet.”

 

       Song Yueran blushed, moved to the side behind Xu Ye, and said coquettishly, “Dad, what are you talking about…”

 

       Xu Ye’s face turned white, his arms hanging by his sides were tense, and his eyes were shaking. He didn’t know where to look, but he still couldn’t completely leave the man who was close at hand. He wanted to explain, but he couldn’t explain. So he could only stand speechlessly as if a boulder pressed his chest, and he was so stuffy that he couldn’t breathe.

 

       The corners of Chu Yu’s mouth slowly rose, but there was no trace of a smile in his eyes. He looked into Xu Ye’s eyes, and he said word by word, “I am looking forward to that day.”

 

       Xu Ye’s pupils shrank suddenly, and he even stopped breathing. He felt himself being yanked back by Song Yuran and took a step backwards stiffly, allowing the man to walk past him. The white coat that he was wearing brought up waves of the air, and the familiar smell of perfume passed before his eyes.

 

       It was the first time Xu Ye felt so panicked. It was as if he had been kicked down from a height of ten thousand feet, losing all sense of security that he could cling to.

 

       “What’s wrong with you?” Song Yueran asked worriedly, “You look so pale.”

 

       Xu Ye shook his head and smiled bitterly.

 

       Chu Yu and Chu Xuan came to discuss business.

 

       Xu Ye heard the general picture from their conversation. Early this morning, Song Wannian received a call from Chu Xuan, asking him to discuss the development of the land in Donglin. The third young master said lightly, “The meeting room is too boring. I heard that the scenery of Qianchuan is beautiful”, and Song Wannian immediately invited them here.

 

       Xu Ye was not stupid, he didn’t think that someone like Chu Xuan would be keen to discuss projects with the two old foxes on his day off, and he also didn’t think that Chu Xuan would happen to know that Song Wannian has such a secret villa in Qingchuan. The only answer was that he had been instructed to do so.

 

       Someone with an insight into the flow of information.

 

       Someone who could easily control his own movements.

 

       Someone who could command Chu Xuan.

 

       Who else could it be?

 

       Not a moment too soon, not a moment too late. It was at the exact moment when he was staying out for a night alone, with a cold and strong sense of oppression, that made him feel at a loss for what to do and his heart beating like a drum. At this moment, this man named Chu Yu was telling him clearly that no matter where he was or what he had done, everything about him was under this man’s control. When he thought about it carefully, the sentence ‘Don’t always let me hear the word ‘sorry’’ was not idle talk but a warning.

 

       He had been warned a long time ago, but he had foolishly and ignorantly broken the taboo.

 

       Xu Ye’s eyes shakily circled around the man, and his palms were covered with cold sweat. But the other party didn’t look at him at all and was listening to Xu Ting’s presentation of the project while flipping through the architectural design booklet.

 

       In terms of psychological stalemate, Xu Ye was no match for Chu Yu. He couldn’t figure out the other person’s mind at all and didn’t know what he would do to him. It was like having a shiny guillotine hanging over his head, not knowing when it would fall down and end him. All of his emotions were tugged and pulled out in a long wave of anxiety and panic.

 

       His previous few painful experiences gave Xu Ye a clear picture of what would happen to him if he angered Chu Yu. At this moment, his only thought was to explain everything before the situation worsened. After he thought about it, he took out his phone, typed and deleted a message, briefly explained what happened yesterday, especially last night, and then sent it.

 

       The phone on the table lit up. Chu Yu only glanced at the sender and put it aside, not even bothering to look closely. But Chu Xuan, who was sitting beside him, looked over at Xu Ye, his eyebrows and eyes all filled with teasing.

 

       Xu Ye’s face was as white as frost.

 

       Under Song Wannian’s careful arrangement, the Chinese foods served were exquisite and interesting. There were no four seafood delicacies1abalone, sea cucumber, shark fin, and fish maw, no greasy fishy smell, only seasonal fresh vegetables were selected for a few small stir-fries, and the non-vegetarian dishes were served with tender bamboo shoots paired up with bacon, steamed mullet fish, and a stewed old duck soup pot. Obviously suits the light taste of the two young masters. It was indeed a skill to cater to one’s preferences in a short period of time.

 

       Xu Ye had no appetite at all, so he didn’t move his chopsticks after taking two bites. But he didn’t dare to leave the table, so he could only sit and keep company.

 

       After the meal, Chu Xuan proposed to go for a walk on the mountain, so the group walked along the mountain road while talking. Xu Ye was full of desire to speak, but he kept hesitating. He finally waited for the distance between the few people on the narrow mountain road to widen. He quickened his pace and chased after Chu Yu, not daring to walk with him, so he could only call out in a low voice behind him, “Master…”

 

       Chu Yu’s footsteps paused slightly, and he turned to his side. His starry eyes shimmered with dim and unclear light amidst the swaying shadows of the trees.

 

       Xu Ye felt that the sight could almost penetrate his skin and bones. He froze from head to toe and muttered, “Can you give me a chance to explain…”

 

       When he heard this sentence, Chu Yu’s eyes showed a hint of amusement, and he asked with a half-smile, “What do you want to explain?”

 

       Xu Ye didn’t expect that he was willing to listen, so he was taken aback for a while and immediately explained what happened yesterday honestly.

 

       The man stood under the tree and listened quietly. When he saw that Xu Ye had stopped speaking, he asked, “Are you finished?”

 

       Xu Ye responded in a low voice, “Yes, I am.”

 

       “Okay.” Chu Yu narrowed his gaze slightly, “Now it’s my turn to ask you an answer. Did anyone force you to go to Song Yuran’s appointment?”

 

       “At the time, I thought it was a family gathering…” Xu Ye was anxious to defend himself, but he was interrupted.

 

       The man’s voice was as cold as water, “I don’t want to hear unnecessary explanations.”

 

       “…No.” Xu Ye lowered his eyes and answered. He did indeed enter the gate of this villa himself.

 

       “Did you get a chance to leave before the two of you spent the night together?”

 

       Xu Ye lowered his head and said dryly, “Yes.” With the convenience of communication facilities, if he insisted on leaving, he could have done so, but he did not.

 

       “Raise your head.” Chu Yu’s voice was deep and cold, with undeniable strength.

 

       Xu Ye trembled and raised his face. His eyes were full of fear.

 

       “I allow you to make friends and arrange your own time.” The man’s eyes seemed to be full of wind and snow, “Did I allow you to stay out at night and share a bed with others?”

 

       “…You didn’t.” Xu Ye didn’t dare to lower his head. His eyes were full of panic and regret as he bit his lips after forcing out the words.

 

       “One last question. Before I got here, did you ever think about asking me for help or telling me everything?” This was what Chu Yu really cared about. Xu Ye’s attitude towards him seemed intimate, but there was a thick barrier behind him. He didn’t rely on him, he didn’t bother him, and he even tried to hide things from him when something happened.

 

       Xu Ye opened his mouth but did not make a sound. His gaze trembled so much that he could only murmur, “Master…. I was wrong….”

 

       The corner of Chu Yu’s lips lifted into a faint smile, his voice was gentle, yet it carried a pervasive coldness, “Xu Ye, there are many ways to play the game between you and me, but you have to choose the most unpleasant one.”

 

       While talking, the people who were walking in front had turned back, and the group returned to the villa again and ate some fruits. Chu Xuan looked at his watch and said that there were still arrangements in the afternoon, so he wanted to leave.

 

       Xu Ting and Song Wanhua rushed out, followed by Xu Ye and Song Yueran.

 

       Chu Yu stood upright on the steps, turned around and asked casually, “Which party is leading the investment this time?”

 

       Both Xu Ting and Song Wanhua were taken aback. The second young master Chu smiled faintly, “This piece of land has been in my father’s hands for some years. I mentioned to him the matter of building a resort a few days ago, and he is quite interested. Although there are many resorts under the Golden Eagle, there are only a few good ones. The idea that Xu Ye mentioned just now is very good, and it has been carefully considered, which is a little more innovative than the booklet Uncle Song showed me before.”

 

       After these words were said, the whole room fell silent. Song Wanhua suddenly looked sideways at Xu Ting, who looked at Xu Ye blankly, and Song Yueran also looked at Xu Ye with wide eyes.

 

       Xu Ye froze, feeling cold sweat on his palms and forehead. Everyone had seen how he had spoken to Chu Yu just now, but he could not refute Chu Yu’s words, so he could only remain silent. His silence is equivalent to acquiescing that the Xu family had set up a new scheme on the back of the Song family.

 

       The Xu family had secretly made a different design to bypass the Song family and work directly with Golden Eagle. How could the Song family tolerate such an act of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge2betrayal?

 

       Song Wanhua sneered, “This is a very good move by brother Xu.”

 

       Xu Ting didn’t know what was going on and wondered if his son really had some good idea that won the second young master’s approval. He felt very happy to have the Golden Eagle’s attention, so he laughed and said, “I also don’t know. It must be this kid’s own idea.”

 

       How could Song Wanhua believe it? Since the two Chu family members were present, they couldn’t have a fit, so he kept his face darkened and didn’t speak.

 

       Chu Xuan hid any expression on his face, and when he saw Xu Ye’s changing expression, he couldn’t help laughing inside. He had been temporarily recruited as the second-in-command, and the business talk was just a cover. The real purpose of this trip was for his second brother to teach his unruly pet a lesson. Just a few words made the two families that were close enough to form an alliance, became full of suspicion. This was a very sharp move to cut off the root of the problem. The alliance between the Xu and Song families was probably about to break down, and the fate between Xu Ye and his rumoured girlfriend had also come to an end.

 

       “Xu Ye, I’m very interested in your design concept and business philosophy.” Chu Yu got into the car with a faint smile on his face, “How about taking my car back and discussing it in detail on the way?”

 

       Xu Ye only felt a chill run through his body. The tenderness this man gave him made him sometimes completely forget the other identity of the other party—the second young master of the wealthy family who called the wind and rain and covered the sky with one hand. When Chu Yu withdraws his gentleness, everything would be turned into a disaster.

 

       Xu Ting was overjoyed to see the invitation from the second young master and gave his son a push. Song Wanhua was so angry that his hands were shaking, and he stood silently with his preoccupied daughter. Chu Xuan gave up the back seat with a wink and went to the back of the car.

 

       Xu Ye got into the car with a pale face without saying a word and sat next to Chu Yu.

 

       The extended Mercedes-Benz S550 gallops on the mountain road.

 

       Silence filled the entire carriage, and the whole mood was depressing. Xu Ye plucked up his courage and tentatively called out, “Sir…” There was a driver, so he changed how he addressed Chu Yu.

 

       The man glanced at him from the corner of his eyes and said, “Do you want to talk about design with me as a collaborator, or do you want to talk about other things with me?”

 

       Xu Ye was stunned momentarily and replied, “I don’t understand design.”

 

       “Okay.” Chu Yu pressed a button, and the partition screen unfolded, separating the front seats and enclosing the rear seats into a relatively airtight space. He looked at Xu Ye indifferently and said, “Then show the appearance that a slave should have. Take off your clothes, kneel down, and then talk to me.”

PS: 回HEL亲: It’s true that not every dom and sub pair will fall in love with one another. There are also situations in BDSM where one is together due to physical compatibility, similar to a one-night stand. It is also common for a dom to have multiple subs because of group size differences.

Notes:
I was actually confused on how to say 淺川, if I googled it, it’s called Asakawa, but I felt to translate it as Asakawa would make it awkward since it’s a word that sounds more like a place in Japan instead, so I decided to use the literal pinyin that is Qianchuan

Chapter 80

June 9, 2023 / / 0 Comments

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

       Chen Yuncheng wanted to say something but stopped.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

       Chen Yuncheng smiled, “Nonsense.”

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

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

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

       Chen Yuncheng asked him, “I promised you?”

       Ning Junyan let out an “En”.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

       Ning Junyan said, “Afraid of what?”

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

       Ning Junyan stretched out his hands towards him.

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

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

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

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

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

The author has something to say:
I have some important things to do tomorrow, and I feel anxious today, and I can’t concentrate on my writing.

Notes:
Yeah, not everyone have a friendly relationship with their parents, especially with a mom like Shu Rong *cries in being child of tiger mom*

Chapter 79

June 9, 2023 / / 0 Comments

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

       But Shu Rong shook her head with a cold expression.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

       Ning Junyan kept walking forward.

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

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

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

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

       Chen Yuncheng nodded, “Okay.”

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

       Chen Yuncheng was suddenly embarrassed to speak.

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

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