Addicted: Book Two - The Raging Flames of Passion

Chapter 103 - Difficulties for Groom Gu

Looking at the watch, it was already past seven o'clock. I hope they already left, otherwise they will be caught in the morning rush hour.

While in the midst of thoughts, he suddenly heard the sound of bells ringing simultaneously.

Hearing that, Bai Luo Yin opened the curtains to look outside only to be stunned by the sight before him-Gu Hai was riding an old and worn out bicycle, perspiring profusely on the seat. That bicycle had truly tormented him to exhaustion. Not to mention the missing pedals, even the chains had fallen off for the nth times on the voyage here; only one bright-red tanghulu remained from all the bright red tanghulus that were stuck in the backseat.

Regardless of all that, Gu Hai was still charming and irresistible as he whistled and smiled at Bai Luo Yin with squinted eyes.

"Get on, Ge will take you to the wedding chapel."

Ten years ago, Gu Hai had ridden that very bicycle to the front door of Bai Luo Yin's house and said the words: "Get on, Ge will take you to school." With that one abrupt decision, he got on the back seat of Gu Hai's bicycle which started the ill-fated relationship of ten long years. Now after those ten years, Gu Hai has once again come before Bai Luo Yin. However, this time, he said he will take him to the wedding chapel.

Bai Luo Yin felt all sort of emotions welled up within his heart, yet he couldn't help but to use the same tone to ridicule him.

"...with that broken bicycle? It will fall apart if I get on it."

Gu Hai laughed, "You're on your feet, but still have the time to look down on a person riding a bicycle?"

The conversation from that year repeated once again with not a word absent; neither had practiced for this exchange or thought hard to remember it. Ever since the two had appeared in each other's lives, it was already destined to be significant and extraordinary.

While Bai Luo Yin was still lingering in the feeling of being emotionally touched and have yet to return to his sense, he was dragged back inside by a couple of large hands. Immediately after, seven to eight heads crowded at the front door, all trying to speak simultaneously.

"It's apparent that you are not taking our Regiment Commander seriously!!"

"That's right! You expect to fool our Regiment Commander away with this broken bicycle?"

"Did you think our base is a salvaging station? What made you think you can come here with such a broken and cheap bicycle!"

Bai Luo Yin wanted to explain to everyone on behalf of Gu Hai, but in the end, he was never given a chance to insert any words. Being used to suffering all types of abuses, these soldiers will do everything they can to make things difficult no matter what; especially since they finally ceased a prince with such a high authority to go against.

"Yell out ten nicknames that you use for our Regiment Commander; one less will not suffice."

The moment Bai Luo Yin heard that, he became anxious. How can this type of demand be asked? Wasn't that obviously going to put him to shame?Unfortunately, he had been helplessly pushed to the innermost area of the spot and was heavily surrounded by over a dozen men. No matter what he yelled out, apart from the people beside him, no one else could be heard.

"Shhh, stop shouting! He's starting to talk now, so everybody has to listen carefully. If it doesn't sound good, he's not allowed to come in!"

By now, Bai Luo Yin wished to find a hole in the wall and crawl inside.

"Yin Zi! Baobei'er..."

Just as the word "baobei" sounded, the place became ebullient as the group of soldiers laughed wildly! Baobei? How can our most admired, most revered and most insufferably arrogant Bai Tuanzhang actually allow someone to call him baobei?
