Addicted: Book Two - The Raging Flames of Passion

Chapter 28 - The Food was Eaten by a Dog!

Gu Yang sat dawn on the bed, his back facing Bai Luo Yin. Calmly and collectedly, he sparked up a cigarette before he slowly took a drag of it while an indescribable anxiety and fret crawled inside of his heart.

Bai Luo Yin stretched one of his feet out of the blanket and let it crawl on top of Gu Yang's hand that was placed on the bed. Taking advantage of Gu Yang while he was still in a daze, Bai Luo Yin used his toes to fiercely wedge the skin of the back of his hand before twisting the skin and turning it half a circle. Gu Yang's mouth, from which the cigarette hung loosely, tightly pressed together. He attempted to seize Bai Luo Yin's ankle, but unexpectedly, his foot quickly withdrew back into the blanket.

Gu Yang's temper usually was such that no one would dare to mount a sneak attack on him. Anyone who would dare to touch his hand with their foot should expect to lose said foot. However, today's scene was unprecedented. Not only did Gu Yang not get angry, he even looked at the bruise on the back of his hand with the sides of his lips perked up in a smile.

That intimidating glare from Bai Luo Yin when he borrowed a light on the aircraft that day, emerged in his mind.

Just as Gu Yang had predicted eight years ago, if this person didn't end up dead, he would definitely rise to be someone radiant.

Gu Yang walked into the kitchen and without hesitation, he ate all of the lunch that Gu Hai had wholeheartedly prepared for his baby. After wiping his mouth clean, acting as if nothing had happened, he left Gu Hai's house.

It wasn't until Bai Luo Yin heard the sound of the door closing, that he opened his eyes.

He left? He didn't even say 'bye' to me?

He sat up and looked at the watch, it was already past 2pm, about time to get up. He had to return to the base in two days time, so he needed to pack up his belongings and go home for a visit.

I must spend more time with the old man. Otherwise, he will definitely nag me the next time I come home.

After Bai Luo Yin washed himself up, he went into the kitchen, no longer able to wait. He had already smelled the food at the time when Gu Yang was eating, but he had thought that was Gu Hai eating alone. To his surprise, after opening the food cabinet, he found it empty. Even the two bowls that sat on the dining table on the side of the kitchen were empty. Not even one drop of soup was left.

Bai Luo Yin couldn't help but to swallow his own spit.

Gu Hai, you are fucking heartless! Didn't I only wedge the back of your hand? Is it necessary for you to not leave me one bit of food?!

On his way home in the afternoon, Bai Luo Yin was forced to take a detour since it was peak hour. As a result, he ended up bumping into Yang Meng on patrol in his police car. Without much thought, he honked his horn at him. Hearing that, Yang Meng was just about to show off his authority, thinking to himself, what fucking bastard dares to honk their horn at my police car?

Then he saw the number the car plate, brightly flashing the word 'Army' and immediately took in a gasp of cold air. After taking another look at the person's heroic face pressed up behind the windshield, Yang Meng's facial muscles relaxed in mere seconds.

Bai Luo Yin got out of his car, bent over and leaned against Yang Meng's car window, "You're out on patrol this early?"

Yang Meng faced sideways to look toward Bai Luo Yin, "I'm searching for a cell phone right now!"

"Aren't you a rather competent police, you even manage lost cell phones?" Bai Luo Yin laughed as he spoke.

"How could that be?! It's my own cell phone that was lost!!" Yang Meng said with a bitter expression.
