Disclaimer: I decided to do a rough trans to share with you guys. I am working on this alone so it may not be 100% and there may be a better version out there. Nevertheless, enjoy!
Right after work, Shou rushed out of the office and went to look for Gong to settle the score.
Gong had earlier texted Shou his home address and the pa.s.scode to his door lock. It was very easy for Shou to invade Gong's house.
When he entered the house, Gong was in the kitchen. Shou angrily went forward and was ready to ask questions.
Gong did not even lift his head as he asked, “I cooked lobster, with 13 spices. Want to eat?”
Shou paused before saying he wanted to eat.
It was still not to late to settle the score after eating, Shou thought.
The lobster prepared by Gong was very tasty, and it was handled more hygienically than those at the roadside stalls. Shou never expect that although the Gong was rather devious, he was quite a homemaker.
As it was said that ‘the mouth that eats the food of others get softened', after eating the second piece, the anger in Shou's heart was slowly being diminished.
Gong laughed at Shou for peeling the lobster too slowly. Shou was stubborn and said that he was savouring the taste. In the end, the moment he finished talking, Gong had stuffed some lobster meat into his mouth.
Shou chewed and chewed, and the remaining anger in him was completely extinguished and he was at peace with himself.
Shou calmly asked, “Why did you not tell me we had received the contract long ago?”
Gong did not have the intention to lie so he candidly said, “If I told you, how was I going to get you into my hands?”
Shou's hand that was peeling the lobster trembled and he did not say anything else.
In the kitchen, Shou picked out the lobster heads and threw them in the trash. Then, he washed the pot and plates.
After was.h.i.+ng, he saw that it was still early so he took out his laptop and put up a show of working overtime. He glanced over at Gong who was running on the threadmill. In his heart he felt a little nervous.
After exercising, Gong was sweating a lot and wanted to go take a shower. He stood before Shou and removed his T-s.h.i.+rt, revealing firm and nice-looking muscles. Shou, who was staring at the laptop screen, subconsciously swallowed his saliva.
