Chapter 67
As a weak literature person, ZhongLi FengBaiâs physical attributes had the lovely score of negative. He had never passed in things like running before! However, if a rabbit was scared, even it could bite. So, when Director Zhong was in a hurry, he could actually run quickly for a thousand meters or so as well.
âStand still!â A bunch of thugs were chasing after him with bricks and wooden bats in hand, they were full of murderous intent!
ZhongLi FengBai felt like he was going to collapse!
Why did he not stay at home happily, but came out to buy a dog!
The beginning of everything was simple, yesterday, ZhongLi FengBai got off work early. As such, he decided to go have a romantic candle-lit dinner with Mu Qiu, they were going to look at the beautiful water fountain and listen to the symphonies that will be playing in the restaurant. Afterwards, they were going to go back home to a lovely water massaging bathtub, they were going to share long kisses together. At last, they were going to roll into bed and do stuff. They did the full set!
Of course, all the above werenât important, what was important was after they had sex. Mu Qiu held ZhongLi FengBai in his embrace, saying sweet nothings the entire time to make him happy. At last, for some reason, their topic trailed to the little dog he had when Mu Qiu was young, he lost that dog.
ZhongLi FengBai was still dizzy back then, he didnât hear what he said clearly. When he woke up, he only remembered that Mu Qiu talked about him once owning a dog but lost it. He also remembered that it was very sad! As such, Director Zhong suddenly got the idea to get him a new dog, so that he could mend the lost he felt in his heart. As for the excuse for getting the dog, he had already thought it through: He picked the dog up on the streets/park/shooting areaâŚâŚ Anything, as long as it wasnât âHe felt bad for him after hearing the story, so he went to the store to buy oneâ!
I definitely will not go to buy a present especially for a certain person! Director Zhong was cold and a Tsudere!
That was why!
Living beings such as!
Literature people!
Really!
Makes people feel!
Super-duper worried!
After ZhongLi FengBai sent Mu Qiu away to work, Director Zhong called Qiu ZiYan to ask him which pet store is the best.
âThere is a pretty good one in the West City area, but that place is a little too quiet.â Qiu ZiYan introduced it, âItâs under a western villa, but it might be a bit hard to find.â
âItâs okay. Can you send me the address?â Director Zhong was hell-bent on it now, because when Mu Qiu left the door, he gave him a sweet kiss, it was super-duper gentle and loving.
As such ZhongLi FengBai had fallen even deeper!?
Actually, he hadnât!
Director Zhong continued to scream in protest in his heart!
Such a hotheaded and untruthful person!
âHow about I ask Xiao Yu to drive you there, he doesnât have to go to school today anyways.â Qiu ZiYan was very generous and said, âThat place is really remote, you might not be able to find it.â
âYes please, if you could.â ZhongLi FengBai was a bit bad with places, so he didnât reject.
âThe car can only reach the road outside, but the shop is in the walkway.â Qiu ZiYan continued, âI will send you the address, if you really canât find it, Xiao Yu can find it with you.â
âThank you very much.â ZhongLi FengBai reminded him, âYou must keep this a secret though, please donât tell anyone about it!â
âŚâŚ
Heâs just buying a pet, why does he want to keep it a secret? Qiu ZiYan was a bit dumbfounded, but he didnât ask the reason.
âBring who to where?â Tan XiaoYu who was sitting next to him asked.
âBring Director Zhong to the West City area.â Qiu ZiYan hung up the phone and said, âDo you still remember the restaurant where we ate BBQ?â
âI remember.â Perhaps because he used to work in casinos and stuff, his memory was really good.
âThe place Director Zhong wants to go to is near that restaurant. You just need to walk towards east for about 5 minutes, you can just stop the car at BaiHua alley,â Qiu ZiYan ruffled his soft hair and said, âHeâs going to a pet store, Iâll give you the address. If he canât find it, bring him there.â
âHmn.â Tan XiaoYu placed the ice-cream bucket aside, then stood up to get the car keys. He added, âThen have lunch yourself, go heat up the soup and eat the remaining biscuits. Donât eat the braised pork that I made for Mai Ke.â
âHow come you can have ice-cream in the morning, but I canât have braised pork?â Qiu ZiYan protested.
âBecause you need to take a nude photoshoot next month.â Tan XiaoYu squatted down to change shoes and added, âI will ask Mai Ke to come over and monitor you.â
Qiu ZiYan, ââŚâŚâ
Forming an alliance with the manager, then not letting his husband have food, that was just extra cruel!
Mu Qiuâs home wasnât too far away from Qiu ZiYanâs, so Tan XiaoYu picked ZhongLi FengBai very soon after leaving the house. Tan XiaoYu brought him all the way to the West City area.
âDo you want me to accompany you?â When they got to the BaiHua alley, Tan XiaoYu stopped the car.
âNo thanks. I can go in by myself.â The act of buying a dog for Mu Qiu was something that Director Zhong didnât want anyone to know!
Because!
Something like!
Buying a present!
To make Mu Qiu happy!
Was just!
Too!
Unmatching!
Of a literature personâs!
Aura!
He!
Must!
Hide it at all cost!
However, after just five minutes, Director Zhong regretted his decision.
As, he got lost.
Most of the West City areaâs house were being teared down, he was surrounded by a bunch of gray old walls. The place was so quiet that it was frightening, plus the streets were all interconnecting, so Director Zhong successfully got himself lost!
How embarrassing!
After 15 minutes, ZhongLi FengBai called Tan XiaoYu, âCan I trouble you to come pick me up?â
How so very embarrassing!
âWhere are you?â Tan XiaoYu asked.
Director Zhong, ââŚâŚâ
âYou got lost?â Tan XiaoYu could guess.
Donât say that out loud! Director Zhong screamed inside his heart!
âAre there any especially tall building near you?â Tan XiaoYu walked inside.
ââŚâŚâ ZhongLi FengBai looked around, except for gray walls, there were nothing.
âOkay. Stay there and donât move around.â Tan XiaoYu felt helpless and said, âIâll come in and find you.â
After Director Zhong hang the phone up, smoke came out of his head immediately.
He was going to wait for a kid to get him! How embarrassing!
After another few minutes, Director Zhong feltâŚâŚ like he needed to pee.
Even a cold literature person like himself had needs! As such, ZhongLi FengBai chose a wall corner. He knew that dealing with it this way was very uncivilized, but he had to.
âHey!â Suddenly someone shouted from behind him.
Director Zhong got a jump scare, he immediately pulled his fly up and turned around.
What bastard chose to show up at a time like this!
Does he want a fight or something?
That was when he saw five thugs holding bricks behind him.
Oh my god!
They really do want a fight!
âWhat are you people doing?â ZhongLi FengBai was alerted.
âPeeing in public, penalty fee,â The leading thug who had gold hair and had a cigarette in his mouth said, he was staring at him viciously.
Of course, these thugs didnât watch new movies. When they read magazines, they most likely only look at female idols with huge breasts, as such they didnât know ZhongLi FengBai.
There werenât other people around, so ZhongLi FengBai obediently asked, âHow much?â
â5000 Yuan.â The blondie was not letting him go easily.
âI donât have that many.â ZhongLi FengBai pulled his wallet out, he took out all the cash in his wallet and handed it over, there were around 2000. Actually, to buy Mu Qiu a dog, he visited the bank to get some money, so he had 10000 Yuan in his pocket right now. However, no matter how idiotic he was, he would never just hand that over. Since these people were just using excuses to extort money from him, the more he gave them, the more they would want.
âThat little? Leave your phone behind,â The thug waved the wooden bat in his hand as he said that, he was obviously trying to threaten ZhongLi FengBai.
âNo,â ZhongLi FengBai immediately refused, the phone itself didnât matter, but there were intimate photos of him and Mu Qiu in it, he could never let them leak out.
âNo?â The thug laughed exaggeratingly, he turned his head around and said, âDid you boys hear that? He dares say ânoâ.â
According to Hong Kong gangsters moviesâ logic, the little thugs would start laughing along with their leader, then use the weapons in their hands to scare their victims, thatâs also to emphasize how string the leader was.
However, this was real life, not a TV series. A little thug who had ear piercings said in a hurry, âBoss, boss! He ran away!â
The blond thug turned his head around, just as the other thug said, ZhongLi FengBai was already running away.
âFollow him!â The blonde thug said angrily.
In the quiet alleys, a huge race unfolded. ZhongLi FengBai ran to the point that he felt he was going to stop breathing, but he still couldnât find the exit. Instead of getting a better grasp of the landscape, he felt that he was getting dizzy and confused. He just knew that he was going to die this time!
At such a dire time, the hero would arrive and save the damsel in distress. That would be the most dramatiâŚâŚ scientific thing!
As such, Director Mu came out of nowhere to save him?
Of course, that was impossible! Actually, Tan XiaoYu finally found ZhongLi FengBai.
âBehind, there are people chasing after me,â Director Zhong said incoherently, he grabbed Tan XiaoYuâs arm and ran with him, âQuickly, run.â
âCatch them!â The blond hair thug shouted.
ZhongLi FengBai hurt his ankle as he was running, so he was actually running very slow now. Tan XiaoYu looked at the people behind ZhongLi FengBai, then he picked up a piece of wood lying on the streets, most likely left there from the recent demolition that were going on in the area.
âWhat are you going to do?â Before ZhongLi FengBai had the chance to say anymore, Tan XiaoYu already rushed forward and began fighting with the thugs.
Director Zhong was shocked, his eyes and mouth all opened widely in shock. He was just a skinny kid, how was he so vicious when he was fighting?!
âWhatâs the matter?â Ouyang Long and Su Nuo followed the sound and ran over.
âQuick, Xiao Yu, he isâŚâ ZhongLi FengBai was leaning on the wall, his face was pale from the pain he felt at his ankle.
With Mr. Directorâs help, the battle quickly ended. The thugs were bitten hard and fled. Tan XiaoYu wasnât hurt, he only lost one shirt button.
âYour ankle is swelling,â Su Nuo said as he squatted down to examine ZhongLi FengBaiâs wound, âDo you know whereâs the hospital?â
âLetâs get in the car first.â Ouyang Long pulled ZhongLi FengBai up from the ground, âHe should be fine.â
Having dragged everyone down into a fight, ZhongLi FengBai was feeling very guilty.
âThen, Iâm going to go home,â Tan XiaoYu waved goodbye to them.
âMaybe you should go to the hospital for a checkup too,â Su Nuo said. âYou just fought with so many thugs after all.â
âIâm fine. My clothes are a little dirty, thatâs all.â Tan XiaoYu smiled, âIâll be fine after I take a bath.â
âIâm really sorry for today.â ZhongLi FengBai didnât even know how he should apologize anymore.
âItâs fine, you guys be careful on the way home.â Tan XiaoYu waved his hand, then turned around and got into his own car.
âQiu ZiYan must be regretting lending me his driver1.â ZhongLi FengBai was very depressed.
âI was just about to ask, why were you guys together?â Su Nuo supported him and got him to sit on the backseat.
âI wanted to buy a dog, Qiu ZiYan was afraid that I would get lost.â Director Zhong accidentally told the truth.
âYou are going to get a dog?â Su Nuo was ecstatic, talk about coincidences!
âNo!â ZhongLi FengBai suddenly got nervous, âIâm not getting a dog!â
ââŚâŚBut you just said that you are here to get a dog,â Su Nuo said, he wasnât going to let ZhongLi FengBai off the hook.
âYou heard wrong, Iâm here to buy a cat!â Ha! With this even if Mu Qiu heard of this accident, he wouldnât relate it with buying a present for him!
âDirector Mu is so busy with work every day, where do you get the time to raise a cat?â Su Nuo asked.
ZhongLi FengBaiâs lie was uncovered, so he got a little mad and screamed, âWhat does me getting a cat have to do with him being busy?â There was zero correlation!
âOf course there is,â Su Nuo said seriously. He looked at ZhongLi FengBai and said, âYou canât even take care of yourself, how can you take care of a cat? So, if you get a cat, it will be Director Mu who will be taking care of it.â
ZhongLi FengBai, ââŚâŚâ
âSo, I think you shouldnât get a cat, heâs already very tired every day after work,â Su Nuo said seriously.
ZhongLi FengBai couldnât refute a single point, so he could only change the subject, âSo⌠what were you guys doing here?â
âI wanted to buy a puppy, so I came here to have a look,â Su Nuo replied enthusiastically.
Director Zhong immediately roasted him back, âDirector Ouyang is so busy with his work and you want to get a puppy?â
Su Nuo immediately got angry, âWe just saved you!â How could you be so mean even after that!
âUsing peopleâs weakness against them means youâre not a virtuous person!â Director Zhong was cold.
As such the two of them began a lengthy battle with sharp words?
Of course not.
In reality, the two began fighting with their fists and legs.
The backseat was quickly shrouded in the smoking smell of battle!
Ouyang Long laughed in his heart, people who work in the literature industry areâŚâŚ very special.
At the same time, on the upper floors of a housing estate, Mr. Qiu was conducting a serious questioning session.
âNo one was giving me trouble this time.â Tan XiaoYu explained, âThere were just some thugs chasing after Director Zhong, I was only fighting to help him.â
âreally?â Qiu ZiYan pulled him in closer to have a look, âDid you get hurt anywhere?â
âNo, Iâm fine. Thereâs just a small graze on my arm,â Tan XiaoYu pulled up his sleeve and said, âIt will be fine after applying some medicine.â
âIf I have known this would happen, I wouldnât have lent you out.â Qiu ZiYan helped him took the dirty shirt off, âGo, Iâll help you take a bath.â
âI can do that myself,â Tan XiaoYu rejected him decisively.
âYour arm is injured, how can you do that yourself?â Qiu ZiYan was also standing firm.
âItâs fine.â Tan XiaoYu turned around and ran away from him!
Then, of course he didnât get away!
âWhatâs there to be embarrassed about with me,â Qiu ZiYan pulled him into his embrace.
Smoke began rising from Tan XiaoYuâs head, getting naked in front of him was embarrassing, no matter how you think about it!
Qiu ZiYan kissed his neck lovingly.
Tan XiaoYuâs face was immediately soaked in redness.
HowâŚâŚ sensitive.
Mr. Qiu calmed himself, then thought, should he directly pick him up and bring him into the bathroom? That would be a lot more efficient!
However, before he had the chance to make a decision, his mobile phone that was lying on the table buzzed. What bad timing!
âGo pick up the phone,â Tan XiaoYu got away from him and said.
Qiu ZiYanâs mood was very bad, he answered the phone, âWho is it?â
âItâs me!â ZhongLi FengBaiâs tone sounded like he was anxious and worried.
ââŚâŚAre you okay?â Qiu ZiYan frowned.
âCan⌠can you asked Xiao Yu, ask whether he know where my phone is?â ZhongLi FengBai felt like his soul was scattering away. When he got to the hospital, he realized that his mobile phone was gone, that was such a shocking thing that it was suffocating!
âDo you know where Director Zhongâs phone is?â Qiu ZiYan asked.
Tan XiaoYu shook his head, âNo.â
âHello, Xiao Yu said he doesnât know,â Qiu ZiYan told ZhongLi FengBai.
Then Qiu ZiYan clearly heard ZhongLi FengBai gasp air, then it turned noisy in the other end.
âDirector?â Qiu ZiYan was shocked by the noise.
âWhat did you say to him just now?â Su Nuo picked up the phone that was dropped onto the ground, âWhy did Director Zhong faint the second he heard what you said?â
âŚâŚ
Five hours later, ZhongLi FengBai was lying on a bed in the VIP ward. In front of the bed stood Ouyang Long, Su Nuo, Qiu ZiYan, Tan XiaoYu, andâŚâŚ Mu Qiu!
âI really lost my phone,â Director Zhong said with a grieving face. All of them were trying to find it for him to no avail, that meant the phone must have been picked up by those thugs!
âIt will be fine, your phone is pin locked!â Su Nuo comforted him.
âThe password is just four â1âs, theyâd be able to guess it in just a few tries.â As ZhongLi FengBai said that, he felt like choking himself. If he had known, he would have set the lock as get the âxâ in the following function!
âNah. They might have already forcefully wiped the phone and everything in it may already be gone!â Su Nuo asked seriously after comforting ZhongLi FengBai again, âBut then again, whatâs in your phone that youâre so worried about?â It was important enough to make him faint, that made Su Nuo super-duper curious.
ZhongLi FengBai glared at Mu Qiu angrily, his gaze was sharp like daggers.
âIf thereâs nothing more, then weâre leaving,â Ouyang Long stood up knowingly and brought the mouthy Su Nuo out with him.
âI really want to know though,â Su Nuo said with regret.
Not knowing is just so annoying!
Qiu ZiYan and Tan XiaoYu also bid them farewell and left. Mu Qiu sat on the side of the hospital bed, then helped pull the blanket that was covering ZhongLi FengBai up.
âAll of this is your fault!â Director Zhong screamed.
You have to take those photos!
Those!
Embarrassing!
Photos!
âThose arenât actually that bad.â Mu Qiu lowered his head to kiss him, he said, âThey are just some kissing photos2.â
âWhat if the photos got into the hands of the press!â ZhongLi FengBai grabbed his head harshly.
âThen what?â Mu Qiu looked straight into his eyes, âIs admitting that you are going out with me that difficult?â
âŚâŚ
âHumph!â After a short period of silence, Director Zhong pouted.
âIâm already prepared to stay with you for the entirety of my life.â Mu Qiu leaned down to hug him, âSo, putting it out in the open, sooner or later is the same to me.â
In other words, he was saying that he was totally overreacting for nothing at all?! Director Zhongâs fragile nerves was stabbed by the thought!
As such, his hair rose up in embarrassment!
âWhat do you mean by that?â ZhongLi FengBai asked him as he frowned.
âDo you care that much about revealing our relationship to the public?â Mu Qiu asked.
What kind of a question was that! ZhongLi FengBaiâs level of anger increased as he screamed, âYes!â
The light in Mu Qiuâs eyes turned dim.
ZhongLi FengBai was a bit hurt by his look, so he raised his hand to slap his face.
Mu Qiu was dumbfounded.
The corners of ZhongLi FengBaiâs eyes were all red, âYou donât trust me?â
âNo, thatâs not what I meant,â Mu Qiu felt a little guilty hearing that.
âIf I didnât want to be with you, I wonât sleep with you!?â ZhongLi FengBai said decisively, but then got embarrassed by his own statementâŚâŚ so embarrassed that he cried.
This is just so veryâŚâŚ
âDarling, Iâm wrong, please donât cry,â Mu Qiu said immediately as he was scared by ZhongLi FengBai crying.
âGo away.â ZhongLi FengBai hid himself inside the blanket.
âNo, Iâm not going anywhere.â Mu Qiu hugged him and said, âYou can scold me, hit me, anything. Just donât be angry at me, please?â
âI just donât want to be gossiped about by third-rate magazines,â ZhongLi FengBai sounded depressed. If those thugs were actually able to recognize who he was, at most, theyâd be able to find some third-rate magazines to leak them to.
âHmn.â Mu Qiu carefully pulled the blanket down, he kissed ZhongLi FengBaiâs cheeks and said, âThen we should get ahead of all the third-rate magazines out there.â
âWhat do you mean?â ZhongLi FengBai was confused.
âLetâs reveal our relationship to the public, how about that?â Mu Qiu looked ZhongLi FengBai in the eyes and asked.
ââŚâŚNow?â ZhongLi FengBai was a bit nervous.
âHmn.â Mu Qiu was completely serious.
Director Zhongâs heart was jumping like crazy!
On his heart were the Alpacas again!
Though he knew clearly that this day would come eventually!
However, when it came to this critical moment, he was still very nervous!
He was completely unprepared!
Mu Qiu didnât continue forcing the subject, he just sat there quietly, holding ZhongLi FengBai in his embrace.
After an hour3, ZhongLi FengBai finally came to a decision.
âThe day after tomorrow, there will be a movie exhibition. We should attend together, remember to wear formal attire.â
Mu Qiuâs face immediately glowed.
Director Zhongâs ears were all red, he grabbed a pillow and threw it at Mu Qiuâs face.
For some reason, Mu Qiu had the feeling that they were like a pair of old married couples! As such, after ZhongLi FengBai went back to rest, he called Ouyang Long to flex about this for an entire ten minutes!
âAre you done yet?â Mr. Director ground his teeth and asked.
âYou must be really jealous of me right now, huh?â Mu Qiu sighed.
Ouyang Long decisively hung the phone up. Then he began wondering in his own heart, what it will be like when his little foodie decided to come out. What kind of a shocking and huge scene that would be!
Finally, his conclusion was that, not coming out was the best.
He is so stupid and had been pampered for his entire life. If things got too out of hand, he might not be able to handle the pressure, soâŚâŚ he would most likely have to continue being his secret lover.
That was a bit regrettable though.
âDear!â Su Nuo opened the balcony door, he raised his hand and complained, âI canât find the sugar.â
Ouyang Long put his phone back into his own pocket and walked away from the balcony with his arm around Su Nuoâs shoulder.
To be honest, whether they come out or not, really didnât seem to matter.
As long as they were together, then everything was okay.
âWhat are you doing?â Ouyang Long was shocked by the mess in the kitchen.
âI wanted to make some salty biscuits.â Su Nuo scratched his own face.
Mr. Director was really happy, how sweet, Su Nuo actually remembered that he didnât like eating sweet things.
Then he heard Sn continue, âMy big brother seemed to be really busy recently, so I wanted to bake some biscuits for him. Iâm afraid that he will skip breakfast again.â
Ouyang Longâs sweet dream was cruelly shattered!
Reality is just so cruel!
âWhat is your brother busy with?â Ouyang Long asked nonchalantly.
Su XiaoNuo immediately tensed up, then he said seriously, âHis MahJong business wasnât going well recently, so he is anxious.â
Ouyang Long was angered by him so much that he laughed, he wondered, when was this buffoon going to come clean about his brotherâs occupation?
Su Nuo adjusted the ovenâs temperature, his heartbeat was raising a lot just now!
On the subject, he really didnât know what his brother came back for this time. He just felt like he was very busy, how very hard working!
âDo you want me to drive you over tomorrow?â Ouyang Long asked.
âEhh, no need.â Su Nuo refused, âMy brotherâs underground factory is very hidden, itâs not easy to find.â He lied so fluently!
Mr. Directorâs feelings were so complicated that he couldnât even explain all of them in words. However, he knew that he shouldnât burst the bubble, so he decided to work especially hard at a special specific time, so as to punish this idiot who didnât want to believe in him.
âDid you secretly put on some India God Oil 4, or something?â Su XiaoNuo was panting as he asked.
Ouyang Long pinched Su Nuoâs chin and replied, âDo you think your man need something like that?â
âIâm tired.â Su Nuo sounded helpless.
They had sex for too long.
âYou donât have to work tomorrow, so you can nap til noon.â Ouyang Long leaned down to kiss him.
âBut I need to give the biscuits to my brother!â Su Nuo reminded him.
ThenâŚâŚ
It would have been better if he didnât remind Ouyang Long that.
The bed immediately shook even more!
Su XiaoNuo had tears all over his face.
What kind of a situation is this?
This is so unscientific!
