Chapter 5 (1/2)

”This restaurant's Northern shrimp sas.h.i.+mi also tastes very good,” Su Zui didn't wait for Yang Yuanhang's opinion before familiarly turning to the waiter and instructed: ”One order of this.”

The waiter quickly replied: ”Very well Sir.”

Yang Yuanhang's half open mouth once again quietly closed. His expression didn't look very good.

Su Zui merely pretended to be blind and lowered his head to enjoy the food.

He had been so busy for the past few days to the point his head became dizzy, and was also unable to eat properly.

The Northern shrimps' taste was sweet. The seeds from the shrimp's abdomen felt very fine in the mouth and tasted fabulous.

Su Zui ate with a single-mindedness and quickly finished the small plate of shrimp sas.h.i.+mi, before ordering a plate of tuna and a gla.s.s of freshly squeezed fruit juice.

Yang Yuanhang watched him order one plate after the other. Remembering that none of the orders on the menu cost less than four digits, he can feel his liver hurting.

Most of the time, he enjoys coming to eat in this type of restaurants with Su Zui. But when he is the one paying, he doesn't feel that happy.

While Su Zui frequently gave him expensive presents, but he rarely gives him cash. Because he himself cannot earn money, Yang Yuanhang's savings were very limited.

It wasn't as if Su Zui didn't know his circ.u.mstances, yet he absolutely insists on eating here! Aren't the restaurants down the street the same? It has good quality food while being cheap! It's so much better compared to these restaurants who charge extra expenses!

Yang Yuanhang was originally waiting for Su Zui to admit his wrong, so he constantly kept his silence and not say a word.

But Su Zui was more absolute than him. After sitting down, he soly concentrated on eating and didn't even gave him a glance.

Seeing how Su Zui was ordering without restraint, Yang Yuanhang finally can't hold it in: ”Xiao Zui, about that day, are you still angry?”

Su Zui calmly chewed the fish meat in his mouth and swallowed, before raising his head: ”Didn't I already talked it over with you? I'm not angry. It's only that I have been busy with company matters these past few days.”

He paused for a moment, his expression a bit somber: ”Yang ge, am I the type of person who hold grudges in your heart?”

Yang Yuanhang: ”How can that be? I didn't think of that. I'm only worried that you keep your worries to yourself.”

Su Zui sipped his fruit juice and laughed: ”This matter has already pa.s.sed. I already forgot about it. You should also forget about it.”

Yang Yuanhang: ”......”

Yang Yuanhang: ”That set of paint brushes……”

Su Zui smiled with his eyes: ”Oh that? Don't worry, I already gave it to a friend who wanted to try out painting. It wasn't a waste of money.”

He held the gla.s.s cup in his hand and in a lively tone: ”Yang ge, I thought it through. The things I had done before were wrong. I shouldn't have gave you presents and ”humilate” you in order to satisfy my own vanity. You don't have to worry anymore. I won't do it ever again in the future.”

The youth originally already looks obedient and lovely. This type of properly declaring his promise look really earnest and cute. It makes people unable to resist rubbing the top of his soft hair.

Yang Yuanhang's face became greener by eight degrees.

He really cannot understand.

How could Su Zui…...how could he possibly come around?

But he can't ask this question.

Yang Yuanhang forcefully said: ”I knew you were sensible.”

Su Zui saw that his face wasn't able to keep up his forced smile and his own smile became a bit more genuine.

He stared directly at Yang Yuanhang: ”You said before that men's main focus should be on their career. Before, I was angry at you and felt that you didn't care much about our relations.h.i.+p. Now that I tried it out myself, I discovered that career really is more important than a budding relations.h.i.+p.”

For a moment, Yang Yuanhang was speechless. He had indeed said that to Su Zui before.

That day, Su Zui also looked at him with that gentle expression and said words that made his heart felt chilled: ”In the future, we can go get married aboard. Where could you like to go? America or maybe Canada? If you like children, we can also do a surrogate pregnancy.”

His eyes suddenly became a bit evasive: ”......I haven't thought about that yet. I only just graduated. I haven't even enter the workforce. It's still too early to think about marriage and kids.”

”Aren't we fine the way we are right now? Fellow student Su, you are only 22 years old. Don't be act so old and decrepit and enter the marriage grave. Romance is only a part of life. Men should put their main focus on career.”

He is the only son of his family. He can play with boys for a while, but ultimately, he will still have to marry a woman and have kids and pa.s.s on the torch. Only then can it be considered a normal life.

Or else, what kind of expression will his family, friends, and neighbors look at him with?

He originally thought that Su Zui also thought the same as him. Afterwards, he found out that he was wrong to the extreme.

At that time, Su Zui wasn't happy because of his words and was angry for two hours. Up until it was time to eat did Su Zui awkwardly converse with him.

And now.

They were sitting in a skysc.r.a.per, with the lit up city outside the gla.s.s windows. The pedestrians and cars were noisier than that during daytime.

The youth had a gentle look, his eyes reflected the city lights from outside as if his whole figure emitted light, and he asked him while laughing: ”Yang ge, don't you agree?

Seeing Su Zui being like this, Yang Yuanhang can only feel that his throat was dry to the point he couldn't speak.

Vaguely, he suddenly had a sense of wrongness.

Like that former youth who very enthusiastically chase after him, who was docile and obedient, who could lean on his shoulder and laugh, would not return ever again.

He lightly coughed and only then was he able to hear himself say in a slightly hoa.r.s.e voice: ”......Right.”

A sudden vibration roused Yang Yuanhang.

He blanked for a moment, took out his cellphone, and saw there was a new text message.

It was sent by an unknown number. The content was very simple, with only two words: ”Remember(1).”

His pupils shrink. He quickly deleted that text message and raised his head to look toward Su Zui. His movement carries were a bit frenetic.

From the start, Su Zui had not noticed his movement. He was drinking the last of the fruit juice from his cup with a single-minded devotion.

Yang Yuanhang let out a sigh of relief; at the same time, he feels a bit peculiar.

Before, no matter what they were doing, Su Zui's gaze single-mindedly followed him.

Today, two times out of three, he only lowered his head and mind his own business, acting as if he was air.

Yang Yuanhang didn't know how long had it been since he experienced the feeling of being ignored. His whole body language spelled out his discomfort.

He lowered his head to take a sip of coffee. The bitter taste coating his tongue allowed his head to clear a bit.

Half a day later, he appeared to become resolute and said: ”Xiao Zui, let's go back to my place tonight.”

As he spoke, he reached out for Su Zui's hand.

As a result, Su Zui coincidentally reached out his hand to reach for the napkin, leaving Yang Yuanhang to awkwardly grabbing air.

Su Sui appeared to completely not notice this mishap. After thinking, he made things difficult for him and said: ”I still have to go back and look over some doc.u.ments tonight.”

Yang Yuanhang tried to retract his hands naturally and said in a warm voice: ”It's only one night.”

”Besides,” His voice suddenly lowered by a degree and his eyes carried soft affection: ”Don't you want to be together with me?”

Su Zui didn't reply. He only threw the napkin he used to wipe his mouth onto the table.

While the original was very crazy in chasing people, but because of family influences, he was actually very timid in regard to feelings.

He was together with Yang Yuanhang for three months, but they only stayed at the stage of pulling each other's hands.

When Yang Yuanhang suggested that they go to bed together, the original was unwilling to progress that fast in the beginning.

But he minded too much about Yang Yuanhang. In original's emotional world, where there are rarely people, Yang Yuanhang was his one and only light.

When Yang Yuanhang acted just a bit threatening, he would cast away his helmet and armor and choose to compromise.

Yet this type of compromise sent his whole life to the grave.

The process of him and Yang Yuanhang making love in the bedroom was recorded through a pinhole webcam. The video got edited out the most brilliant ending and turned it into a photo. After cutting out Yang Yuanhang's face and body, the photo got sent to Grandfather Qin's office table.

All in the span of one night.

The next day when the original woke up with a sore body, he received news of his grandfather entering the intensive care.

The person from Qin family, who came to receive him, saw how his body was full of unconcealable marks and was unable to cover up the disgust in his eyes and pushed him to the ground.

”Just what did our Qin family in our past lifetime owe you and your mother? Your mom wanted to marry that thing no matter what! The you now wants to make grandfather die from anger simply from living!”

The original arrived at the hospital frightened out of one's mind and saw the elder's whole body stabbed with tubes, laying haggardly on the bed, like an old tree at the last of its life.

During the brief period of time he woke up, he even holded the original's hands and used a weak voice to tell him: The blame is not on you.

Actually, if the he breaked up with Yang Yuanhang, the original would have unlikely suffered such a wrecked end.

His relative pa.s.sing away was the cause of the original's collapse in reasoning.

Because of his personality, the original and the grandfather wasn't that close, but in actuality, the grandfather was the only relative nice to him in this whole world.

Su Zui remembered this and gave Yang Yuanhang a smile: ”Want to. Even in dreams, I want us of being together.”

The words were said warmly, but when Yang Yuanhang saw him, he suddenly shuddered.

When Su Zui leaned his head to the side, Yang Yuanhang seemed to see a very cold thing from his clear black eyes.

But that thing pa.s.sed in a flash. So fast he thought he saw wrong, like that thing was only a trick from the light.

Su Zui asked him: ”Why aren't you saying anything? Don't tell me you don't want to be together with me?”

Yang Yuanhang snapped out of it, and looked at Su Zui while laughing: ”How can that be? I was only thinking on how to coax this busy person back home.”

It's not that he's heartless. It's just that Su Zui didn't give him any escape.

He need to marry and have kids, but Su Zui won't give him this choice.

Human are all selfish. He can only choose to protect himself.

Remembering his and Su Zhimo's agreement, Yang Yuanhang's previous hesitation disappeared.

Su Zui was already too lazy to act with him, and felt a bit tired after eating: ”Next weekend then? Recently the company has been very busy. I want to use my most optimal state to be with you.”

When that time arrives, he will also be free to prepare Yang Yuanhang a ”big present”.

Just when he was ready to call the waiter for the bill, his expression minutely s.h.i.+vered.

His body suddenly felt peculiar.

A feeling of warm arise from his lower abdomen and spread to his four limbs, making his limbs soft and eyes dizzy.

Su Zui: ???

Su Zui: …...

System 555 weakly speaked up: ”Host has been drugged with aphrodisiac.”

Su Zui's face was a bit black: ”I remember the original plot didn't have this part.”

But thinking it through, this is also normal. Because of his provoke, the female lead taking earlier measures were also to be expected.
