Cheng YuTang felt a tug on his heart and he quickly released his seat belt to check Ji XiaoYu’s condition, “How are you?”
Ji XiaoYu covered his forehead and bared his teeth, “It hurts a lot.”
Cheng YuTang gripped his shoulder and made him turn towards himself. He looked under his hand and saw that his clear, white forehead was red in the middle and slightly swollen. He couldn’t help but anxiously say, “Is there any other uncomfortable feeling besides the pain? Any nausea?”
It would be troublesome if he had a concussion from the impact.
The distance between the two people was shrinking again. Cheng YuTang’s movements were indescribably tinged with a flavor of intimacy. Ji XiaoYu felt awkward and panicked a little, not even feeling the headache anymore. He shifted his butt back uneasily, a little farther away from him, and casually said, “That doesn’t seem to be the case. It’s okay, my physical condition is good. Usually when I hit my head, it recovers quickly.”
Cheng YuTang’s heart had eased a little, but Ji XiaoYu’s alienating behavior made him somewhat unhappy again. Was this little thing on-guard against himself? He didn’t even want to do anything at this moment, he just worried about whether he was injured or not. So what was he nervous about?
Remembering that he had almost been in a car accident and that the cause was Ji XiaoYu overreacting, he couldn’t help but say in annoyance, “What are you hiding from? I don’t eat people. I was just fastening your seat belt. When you were surprised, what were you thinking? Luckily, there wasn’t a serious accident or both of us would have had to go to the hospital.”
Turns out it was just fastening the seat belt…… Ji XiaoYu was instantly ashamed. He knew that he needed to wear a seat belt when riding in the passenger seat, but he forgot in his overwhelmed state when he got in the car. Now, in retrospect, it was just a burst of fear and he was in the wrong, so he confessed, “Cheng Zong, I’m sorry, it wasn’t deliberate. I’m just not used to being too close to other people, so……”
Cheng YuTang: “…….”
Not used to being too close to other people? Then, kid, when you climbed up to Laozi’s bed last year, what about that negative distance contact between you and Laozi?
At this moment, Cheng Zong, who was always gentle and graceful in public, really wanted to curse.
Ji XiaoYu suddenly remembered something and couldn’t help but say in a panic, “Uh oh, I didn’t break your windshield just now, right?”
As he spoke, he reached out and touched the windshield that he had just hit, fearing that if he found a crack on it, he might as well find a piece of tofu and beat himself to death with it.
After touching it repeatedly to confirm that the glass was intact, he patted his chest and made his heart calm down. Aiya, almost scared this pheasant to death.
Cheng YuTang originally had anger boiling in his belly, but he almost laughed at this sight. This little thing, with a swollen lump on his forehead, wasn’t worrying about himself, but instead was worried about something irrelevant.
It was a pity his car’s windshield was military-grade, bulletproof and explosion-proof. Let alone hitting it with a head, it wouldn’t be easy to break it even if hit with a hammer. Otherwise, Ji XiaoYu’s reaction probably would’ve been even more fun.
“Let’s go, fasten your seatbelt yourself,” Cheng YuTang said while restarting the sports car.
Ji XiaoYu quickly obeyed, then sat tight, putting both hands on his thighs in a proper manner. Just like an obedient primary school student, he no longer dared to move.
His body was well-behaved, but his eyes weren’t idle, still blinking and looking around.
The silver sports car dashed quickly and steadily on the main road of the city. The trees and buildings on the side of the road quickly passed by. The evening wind poured in through the half-open windows, blowing through Ji XiaoYu’s hair, and his eyes squinted almost shut. However, he was reluctant to close the window, greedy to experience this fresh and exciting feeling.
He inadvertently glanced at the driver’s side and caught sight of Cheng YuTang. Ji XiaoYu’s gaze got stuck slightly.
The president was wearing a light-colored casual outfit today. The sleeves of his shirt were arbitrarily hitched up to his elbows, revealing the solid, smooth muscles of his arms. His hands were freely and coolly controlling the steering wheel. This was a very different feel from the calm, steady appearance of his suit at work on weekdays and he looked a few years younger.
The wind also blew his hair back from his forehead and, far from appearing messy, this gave him a bit of a relaxed and unconstrained charm. This side profile of him looked deeper and more three-dimensional than his everyday look, with sharp eyebrows, a high nose, and thin lips. Every contour was turned just right, so perfect that Ji XiaoYu was jealous.
Although Ji XiaoYu was also very good-looking and he received a few compliments every day from people he didn’t know, most people described him as nothing but ‘beautiful’ or ‘pretty’, or even ‘cute.’ Every time he heard this, violent impulses filled his body and he wanted to find someone to fight to prove his strength as a male……
“Looks good?”
Ji XiaoYu had been caught up in his envy and jealousy and the man who had seemed to be concentrating on driving suddenly opened his mouth coolly.
He froze until he realized Cheng YuTang was talking to him. His face suddenly flushed and he hurriedly turned his eyes away with a guilty conscience.
Cheng YuTang enjoyed the sight of Ji XiaoYu’s red-faced embarrassment in the mirror, and he couldn’t help but laugh. If he hadn’t still been driving, he wouldn’t have minded doing a thing or two to make the face of that little thing even more red.
When Ji XiaoYu heard the laughter, he got a little annoyed, what are you laughing at, what’re you so smug about, and he said with a sincere tone, “It looks good, the Ning City buildings are so tall and big and the flowers and plants on the roadside are so neat and beautiful. It looks better than my Qing Shan town.”
Cheng YuTang: “…….”
Ji XiaoYu scored a comeback in that round and secretly snickered. However, it wasn’t good to stare at a person after all, so he turned his head to look out the window, enjoying the Ning City scenery in earnest.
Night fell without notice and the roadside residential buildings lit up with lights, like the shining stars in the sky, but as they were more brilliant and bright, the starry sky was eclipsed. The unique fireworks of human society came to the foreground.
Ji XiaoYu was dazed for a moment. The human city was very good, bustling and lively. It was a lot more fun than the mountains, full of delicious things, but none of these windows here belonged to him.
He was just a passerby. He couldn’t and shouldn’t have too many interactions and encounters with human beings. After a short stay, it would be time to go back to where he was supposed to be.
Cheng YuTang noticed Ji XiaoYu’s expression, which seemed like it was a bit envious and a bit yearning, mixed with some desolation and the melancholy of being alienated from his surroundings. It wasn’t in harmony with his still-young and tender face.
He couldn’t help but frown.
This little thing was supposed to be hopping along all day long, laughing without a care or concern. So what was bothering him right now? Was he worried about the problem of his livelihood and money?
Silence filled the car for more than half an hour until the sports car sailed into a beautiful villa community. Another ten minutes down the avenue and suddenly the area opened up wide. There was a lake surrounded by hundreds of yards of land. They stopped outside a three-story European-style building on the lakeside.
Ji XiaoYu’s miserable thoughts on the road just now were thrown completely out the window. Since the sight of the villa community entered his window, he had been constantly crying out in his heart, Wow, this place is so beautiful and so advanced! Does Cheng Zong live here? Money is so good, ah ah ah ah!
If one day he could live in such a big, comfortable house, then he wouldn’t return to that destitute mountain valley of Xiao Qing Shan!
Cheng YuTang glanced at him and sighed with relief. Sure enough, it really was a question of money. Cheng YuTang had been too concerned over it just now.
After getting out of the car, Ji XiaoYu followed Cheng YuTang through a flowering garden to the front door.
The sky was completely dark. The little building was pitch black and there were only a few dim lights in the corner of the garden. Ji XiaoYu’s eyes immediately entered their half-blind state and he almost slammed into the stone pillar on the side of the gate without noticing it.
Cheng YuTang couldn’t help but laugh, teasing, “Such a grown man, how can you still lose your balance when you walk? Do you think that bump on your head isn’t big enough already?”
Ji XiaoYu couldn’t reveal the truth, so he had to laugh to cover up the incident.
Cheng YuTang opened the door and turned on the light. The lights lit up the room and Ji XiaoYu curiously looked around. The decor was elegant and magnificent, the floor was marble and shining, and everything was clean and spotless. The sight almost blinded his eyes.
The only flaw was that it was too neat and impersonal, as if no people were living there, like it was a model show-house for people to see.
Ji XiaoYu asked in curiosity, “Hey, Cheng Zong, are you alone in your household?”
Cheng YuTang said, “Yes, my parents are in the capital.”
Ji XiaoYu had occasionally listened to his colleagues chatting over the past few days, saying that Cheng Zong wasn’t married yet, that he was Ning City’s number one bachelor, so he couldn’t resist gossiping at this moment, “Then you don’t have a girlfriend?”
Cheng YuTang left his keys by the entrance and changed into his slippers. About to walk into the house, he heard these words and turned around to say shortly, “No.”
Hearing him say that, Ji XiaoYu thought it was kind of dull. Although Cheng Zong was sitting on countless possessions, living in a luxury home and driving a luxury car, but like himself, the pauper, he was a bachelor. From that perspective, there was no difference between him and Cheng Zong, they were both comrades in the trench together!
Cheng YuTang added with a smile, “I prefer men, so I can’t have a girlfriend.”
Ji XiaoYu: “……..”
This, this, this, Cheng Zong, do you have to be so frank?
Although he wasn’t deeply involved in the world, he still knew that human society was dominated by the union of men and women. Other sexual orientations were niche and were often ostracized and rejected by the world. This was also the case in China today, so most of that minority group hid their sexual orientation, deeply afraid of others finding out.
Cheng YuTang actually revealed this about himself so magnanimously, he was really a rich person who could speak with confidence and fearlessness…….
“Friend Ji XiaoYu, what about you?”
Ji XiaoYu’s named was suddenly called and he replied after a moment of stunned silence, “Me? Whichever, it doesn’t matter…….”
As a natural-born spiritual beast, Ji XiaoYu had always lived according to his own will, without prejudice towards sexual orientation or anything. As long as other people weren’t interfered with, what he liked were people who liked spiritual beasts.
As for himself, growing up to this age, whether it was a man or a woman, he hadn’t seemed to have felt anything special for anyone. He had never thought about who he would be with in the future.
Now he didn’t even think about those things, since his biggest concern was to make money for the chick’s milk and to incubate the egg!
Cheng YuTang’s brow furrowed. He was very dissatisfied with this answer, what do you mean, it doesn’t matter? Men and women alike, no matter which they are, would be fine? He has no sense of decency. So last year’s Christmas Eve, this kid sold himself to climb into my bed?
Noticing that Cheng YuTang’s expression was bad, Ji XiaoYu was a bit puzzled. I don’t know how I offended this honorable president.
Seeing on the wall clock on the living room wall that it had passed 7pm, he said sensibly, “Cheng Zong, now that you are home, I’ll head back.”
Head back? Not so easily. It took me a long time to bring you back here, how can I let this piece of meat in my jaws escape? Cheng YuTang Qiang suppressed the unpleasantness in his heart and light glinted off the lenses of his glasses. With a slight smile, he said, “Going in such a hurry, so directly to the point. There’s time to eat first.”
As soon as he said ‘eat,’ Ji XiaoYu felt hungry. But he wasn’t sure what was going on, the way Cheng Zong had smiled made his heart tremble a bit, so he tried to come up with a reason to refuse, “No, it’s not, I can’t cook and I don’t want to be a bother to Cheng Zong.”
Cheng YuTang’s teeth itched a little, “It’s okay, I’ll do it, you can just give me a hand.”
Ji XiaoYu cried out in surprise, “Cheng Zong, you can also cook?”
Cheng YuTang raised an eyebrow. “Oh yes. Is that a surprise? Although it’s an auntie who does it most of the time, once in a while I cook for myself.”
Ji XiaoYu very cleverly offered some flattery, “Cheng Zong, you’re so amazing, able to do anything. You’re simply an all-rounder! ”
This dignified president was not only going to feed him, but was going to cook personally. It was incredible.
Although Cheng YuTang may just be putting gold on his face, he could only go along. But whether it would be edible was another matter. If he dared to cook with a flame, he was better than Ji XiaoYu, who was born afraid of fire.
Cheng YuTang’s mood improved after that, with most of his previous unhappiness was also eliminated. He couldn’t keep the corners of his lips from rising slightly, “Of course. Haven’t you already experienced one of my most powerful skills?”
Ji XiaoYu was confused, “Which one? Driving?”
Cheng YuTang laughed with hidden meaning. It is driving, yes, but this “driving” is different from “driving”.

(just a reminder, our president still thinks our little pheasant willingly seduced him in order to get paid by someone & willingly took drugs to be more seductive/enjoy himself more)
