Chapter 43 (1/2)
On the car ride, Zhou Yun Sheng covered his face, then burst into silent laughter. He had to say, three hundred thousand, whether you thought it was a lot or chump change, taking out a bundle of bills and smashing it in someone’s face was a really cool feeling. Especially, Ji Han Yu’s grief-stricken and regretful expression, it was the best entertainment.
Lin Chengze was made into a bitch, so Zhou Yun Sheng helped him avoid the pitfalls and elevated his status to a chaste height at the same time. Now, not only could Ji Han Yu never stay peacefully together with Fang Youran, he would never be able to forget him in his lifetime. When he inevitably faced the darkest sides of the world, he will recall the past and feel that only Lin Chengze’s love and dedication was the most selfless and precious love he’d ever received.
From now on, Lin Chengze will be his pure white moonlight, the sweetness in his heart, whenever he thought of what he did for him he’d wince in pain. What’s a reversal? This was the most thorough reversal.
Cao Mo Kun saw him clutching his face, shoulders trembling, and thought he was crying. He helplessly pulled him into his arms, and slowly said, “Baby don’t cry, that type of person is not worth your tears.”
Zhou Yun Sheng froze, but he didn’t say anything.
Cao Mo Kun continued, “Baby, you’re not my pet, and really, I’m not an old man, I’m not even thirty yet.”
Zhou Yun Sheng looked up at him, a few drops of tears were hanging on his eyelashes, freshly squeezed out.
Cao Mo Kun was a bit nervous at what he was going to say next, he wanted to take out a cigarette, but he knew that he hated the smell and held back, he continued, “Baby, that transaction…is void, we can start again, and have a healthy, equal and happy relationship, what do you think?”
Zhou Yun Sheng stared at him for a long while, then he buried his face in his arms and muffled, “I don’t think that’d work. Everybody knows you only keep people for three months, even your own nephew couldn’t stay, how could I have the confidence to be with you? I just want to study hard right now, get into a good university, and find a safe and stable job.
Cao Mo Kun knew that his heart was hurt by Ji Han Yu, at this time, he couldn’t trust anyone. He pushed his hair back, helpless, and sighed. “How about we start as friends? So, you can see how long I hold on. We didn’t have a good start, but we can have a good future.”
Zhou Yun Sheng was silent for a moment, finally, he nodded his head, then he quickly added, “Then you have to give my ad paycheck back to me first.” His financial situation was still in the pits, he was basically penniless.
Cao Mo Kun was relieved, he couldn’t help but laugh, he promised, then kissed the top of his soft hair.
—————
Ji Han Yu squatted in front of Cao’s door for more than a month, he didn’t even leave during the New Year, he finally blocked off Zhou Yun Sheng when he came back with Cao Mo Kun after the holidays.
“Baby, go in first, I’ll talk to him.” Cao Mo Kun didn’t like the way Ji Han Yu looked at his lover with hot eyes.
Zhou Yun Sheng nodded, and only slightly glanced at Ji Han Yu as he walked past.
Ji Han Yu wanted to chase after him, but he was frozen by his uncle’s cold eyes.
“Sit down, how are you doing with your little boyfriend lately?”
“I’m not with him.”
“Why? Didn’t you say you loved him?” Cao Mo Kun mocked some shock.
After what happened, how could he feel comfortable together with Fang Youran? As long as he looked at him, he would immediately think of the fresh, scattered, red paper bills. He thought of Lin Chengze’s red eyes, his desperate, sad eyes. That scene repeatedly tortured Ji Han Yu and kept him awake all night.
His face slumped, he took a check out from his pocket, “Uncle, here’s one million, please let Lin Ze go.”
Cao Mo Kun smiled, then sighed, “Han Yu, you are so naïve. You thought you could buy him back? Besides, I don’t need this type of money. To tell you the truth, buying your love with 300,000, is the most successful investment I’ve ever made in my life. Every time I think about it, I want to pop open a bottle of champagne and celebrate.”
The man’s face, filled with happiness and pleasure, deeply stabbed into Ji Han Yu, but he was helpless. He stood still for a long time, then put away his check, and left Cao’s front step.

The new semester began, and it brought with it a huge sensational scandal. A group of rich second generations were captured in immoral positions and the photos were posted on the forums. The scale was huge, the scene was kinky, condoms, liquor bottle, and drugs were littering the floor.
At this time, the election was at a critical point, the Department of Justice paid great attention to the photographs and quickly investigated. Zhou Yun Sheng had already hacked into the club’s monitoring system and erased his and Cao Mo Kun’s figures, so this didn’t affect them.
Wang Jie was called away from the classroom, the charges were drug abuse and drug trafficking, the students had a hot new gossip.
Ji Han Yu also looked at the photos, he thought of how Lin Chengze would’ve also been forced into that pile of bodies if his uncle hadn’t gotten there in time. His whole body broke out in a layer of cold sweat. Now, he really couldn’t remember why he’d chosen to use such a vicious method to destroy Lin Chengze.
