CHAPTER 7: REBIRTH OF A CANNON FODDER

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Nie Qingcang is angry, but he didn’t impulsively rush in. As the saying goes ‘catch a thief with the loot’, ‘catch adultery in the act’, they’re both now only eating at the same table, even when caught it won’t be serious.

So after thinking about it, he returned to his car, waiting to follow them to the hotel, then catch him and bring him back for a spanking!

As for Gu Bai who’s inside the restaurant, he didn’t notice his presence at all. Although he came to do missions, once he entered the body of the original host, he becomes a ordinary person just like the original host. At the moment, he doesn’t know much about supernatural powers.

There weren’t any mutual topic for conversation during the course of the meal with Fu Zixuan, they ate very quickly, so in less than half an hour, the two ended their meal.

Coming out of the restaurant and watching Fu Zixuan leave, Gu Bai was about to go hook up Nan Lichen who already sat in the corner for a long time, taking the initiative to attack. As a result, he immediately caught a glimpse of Nie Qingcang’s car on the roadside.

It’s not because his eyes are sharp, but the other person’s car is too prominent and he already sat in his exclusive car for half a month, so he’s very familiar with it.

With a happy face, Gu Bai quickly ran over and opened the door to get in, then exclaimed with surprise, “Brother, are you here to pick me up?”

The man who thought he was going to catch them in bed had a dark face on, but after seeing the pleasant smile on Gu Bian’s face, all his anger deflated like a ball.

However, Nie Qingcang doesn’t easily change his face into a good one. Seeing Fu Zixuan’s car exit, he signaled for the driver to also drive, then he chastised* Gu Bai.

*兴师问罪: punitive expedition; denounce someone publicly for his crimes

“Is that Fu Zixuan just now? Are you pestering people again?”

Gu Bai’s face paled, then he recovered and immediately shook his head “No, no brother…”

“If not, then who ate with you just now?” Nie Qingcang coldly humph, the tone was very bad.

“I’ve said how you’ve been so obedient these past few days, turns out it was a cover up. Lu Rongqing, you’re good, even dared to fool me. I actually believed you. You are really…”

The words came to an abrupt end, because the boy showed him those pure little eyes and it was even suddenly red.

During this period of time Gu Bai already discovered that Nie Qingcang look vicious and have a bad temper, but he’s actually eccentric*. The tiger with no temper will be obedient once you smooth down his fur twice.

*别扭 difficult to deal with; hard to get along with; awkward

This is his own golden thigh, whether it’s a shield before completing the task, or a long term meal ticket after completing the task, he must carefully serve him and draw him to his side.

Therefore, Gu Bai showed a pitiful expression, suddenly hugged Nie Qingcang, buried his head in his chest and burst into tears.

“wu wu, brother, don’t say it anymore, I promise you I won’t ever look for big brother Fu in the future and won’t like him anymore. He came today to cut me off. He said that he would never be able to like me and told me not to bother him anymore…brother, what’s so bad about me, why does he hate me so much, why does everyone not like me…”

This is the first time Nie Qingcang saw him cry, especially crying in his arms like this. As a brother who doesn’t know how to comfort people at all, he stiffened on the spot for a while.

Gu Bai secretly glanced at his expression and continued to cry even more severely, although men don’t easily cry, but now he’s doing a task, so what?

Act spoiled, sell meng, roll with whichever works.

Strong* and tender, like this kind of seemingly indifferent Nie Qingcang is actually most easily softhearted.

*铁汉 man of iron; a strong determined person

He felt the boy hugging him dependently. Warm tears made a large wet patch on his clothes. He couldn’t chastise him anymore. He awkwardly patted the teen’s back, stiffly comforting him.

“OK, don’t cry. Who said no one likes you…”

“Then does brother like me? Will brother hate me?” Climbing along the pole, he raised his head slightly and revealed his red eyes, looking like a pitiful kitten.

Nie Qingcang was moved a bit by his pitiful appearance. The beautiful young boy’s tearful face look exceptionally soft and there’s a feeling that makes people want to protect him.

His heart became soft and nodded. He actually quite like the obedient Lu Rongqing. In fact, he didn’t hate him in the past, it was just that his increasingly outrageous behaviour made people really annoyed and gave immense headache.

However, thinking of Lu Rongqing’s repeated entanglement with Fu Zixuan, his brows furrowed again. “Rongqing, do you truly like Fu Zixuan?”

There was a bit of displeasure in his tone that even he himself didn’t notice.

He isn’t against the boy liking men, but that person is Fu Zixuan. Not only is he old family friends* with Nie family, but their private relationship is also good. The tough* father will definitely hate the boy.

*世交 friendship spanning two or more generations

*闹僵 keeping a stiff upper lip: resolute and unemotional in the face of adversity, or even tragedy.

If Fu Zixuan also likes Lu Rongqing, then so be it. But the bad thing is that Fu Zixuan has someone he likes and will soon be engaged.

If Lu Rongqing continues to entangle with him, he’s afraid that it will lead to a tragedy of unrequited love. After all, Lu Rongqing’s former personality was extremely outrageous. There is no guarantee that he wouldn’t do something extreme.

After thinking up to this point, Nie Qingcang was a little worried, there was still a bit of inexplicable discomfort feeling in his heart and he asked again.

“Do you really like Fu Zixuan?”

“I…” Gu Bai looked at Nie Qingcang’s pursed lips, thought a bit, then lowered his head. “Because in the past, I was always surrounded at school. At that time, Zixuan ge* often sent me home along the way when he came to pick up Wu Zhenzhen…”

Because of his small and delicate appearance that leans toward femininity and even more beautiful compared to girls, Lu Rongqing was often bullied as a child. Actually, the boys were very simple minded. They thought that because the brat look like a sissy, bullying him to the point of crying should be fun.

However, this left a great shadow on Lu Rongqing, and also the loneliness of being cast out. As a result, his character became even more gloomy and extreme. The occasional goodwill distributed by others will leave people with a favorable and deep impression, he’s also the same. It’s no wonder that his first love is Fu Zixuan.

Seeing Gu Bai’s expression of happily reminiscing, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable and still have some doubts.

“Rongqing, don’t you have a driver when you go to school? How can you be surrounded and bullied?”

Although Lu Rongqing isn’t Nie family’s flesh and blood, his life is definitely the treatment of a young master. When attending school, there’s a professional driver and nanny taking care of him. How can he be surrounded and bullied on the way out of school?

Such a good opportunity to brush in good impression, Gu Bai of course won’t let it go. His eyes took a glimpse, then he looked at Nie Qingcang with a pitiful expression.

“It was big brother’s birthday that day, I wanted to go buy a present by myself and come home early to surprise you. As a result, I was caught by those who often gave me trouble. Not only I did end up buying nothing, I even came back home very late in a sorry figure……”

Gu Bai’s remarks evoked Nie Qingcang’s memory. He seem to vaguely remember that there was such a thing. It was his birthday.

Because Nie father was too busy to give him a birthday celebration, he himself was also lazy to do so. Every birthday was no different from the usual. He didn’t expect Rongqing to actually remember.

He remembered that Lu Rongqing returned home very late, but because there was a nearly 10 year difference between them, he rarely communicated with the boy due to the generation gap. When the teen returned home late, he basically didn’t ask for any reasons.

Thinking of this, Nie Qingcang’s heart was filled with guilt.

Reaching for the person in his arms to cuddle, Nie Qingcang’s handsome face was slightly distressed, caressed Gu Bai’s face and and softly said,

“Rongqing, in the past, it was brother who neglected you too much. In the future, brother will be good to you…”

“Will brother always be good to me and dote on me?”

Gu Bai blinked and continued to seek support*.

*to be provided for; to be kept (mistress); sugar daddy

Nie Qingcang’s heart is a perplexing soft mess, caressing his face, his cold face showed a hint of a gentle and pampering smile as he nodded, the boy’s fair and smooth skin makes people unwilling to part.

He couldn’t help but lower his head to Gu Bai’s forehead and kiss him. Mm, it indeed does feel as good as the smooth touch on his hand!

“Brother…”

Gu Bai was stunned by the sudden kiss.

“En, what’s the matter?”

Nie Qingcang was in a good mood, rubbed Gu Bai’s hair again, bowed his head and kissed him, completely unaware of eating tofu*.

*taking advantage of someone sexually; groping; molesting; touchy-feely

Last time secretary Chen brought his own younger brother to the company, he saw him do the same. He rubbed and kissed his hair and face. The two have a very good relationship.

He automatically ignored the fact that his secretary’s younger brother is 5 years old, aren’t younger brothers all the same anyway?

Thinking about it, Nie Qingcang kissed him again.

After Gu Bai recovered* he still couldn’t believe it, his heart extremely terrified. Shit, did he bend him?

*recovered from surprise/shock; coming back to reality

He touched the original host’s beautiful face, then thought of his lethal little eyes that can seduce righteous people, absolutely shaking both heaven and earth.

After a long while, Gu Bai silently climbed up from Nie Qingcang and didn’t speak. His luck has always been not that good. What to do?
