Shameless Gangster

Chapter 14A

Zhou Guoshu immediately spoke: "I know that you've been wronged, I feel bad for the both of you...that kid, Zhang Xueming, is indeed not conscientious, and I've lectured him for you. What's more, you now know that he's taken on his own business; his livelihood will be cut off. If this does not dissolve your anger, beat him up, just don't kill him...normally I wouldn't interfere in your internal affairs but just take it as I owe you this time..."

When Han Jia heard up to that point, he already knew that this old bastard was definitely infatuated with the new flame evident with how he insisted on protecting Zhang Xueming. With that, his manner of speaking quickly shifted as he spoke softly, "Then, you have to remember that, I'm doing this for you."

Zhou Guoshu was highly pleased and repeatedly pledged his appreciation not only with sweet words but also promised some benefits; Han Jia forced himself to act coquettishly for a few sentences and then hung up.

Once the call ended, Han Jia sneered and sat down on the sofa. When he looked up, he saw Jiang Xiaoning standing at the bedroom door looking at him with tightened brows.

Han Jia sighed mentality and waved his phone at Jiang Xiaoning, "You helped me bring it up?"

Jiang Xiaoning walked over and stood beside the sofa, looking at him. "When you were sleeping, I went down to see what happened and saw that your car door was still open...who was that just now?"

Han Jia did not answer and only stared at Jiang Xiaoning to the point that he felt a bit upset before he whispered: "You...saw my back yesterday?"

Jiang Xiaoning was stunned and nodded.

Seeing that, Han Jia leaned back into the sofa and continued to ask, "Are you especially sympathetic towards me?"

Jiang Xiaoning didn't speak.

Han Jia laughed, "Is that why you're so nice to me today? Afraid that I thought you were bullying me?" His tone couldn't help but become gentler, "Jiang Xiaoning, I wouldn't think that. I've done you wrong first and yet you still helped me and took care of me, I only think that you have a very good character - very kindhearted." Jiang Xiaoning's eyes widened as he looked at him and even his face was a bit red. Han Jia looked at him and slowly added, "Just like your father."

That sentence somehow annoyed Jiang Xiaoning and his expression sank immediately - having the kind of temper where everything was written on his face made Han Jia's smile widened; without waiting for him to speak, he continued: "Such a good kid like you shouldn't be hanging around with me. You should be with people who are just as good as you—"

"I'm not a kid! And, I also don't need you to tell me who I should be with!" Jiang Xiaoning's fury was written across his face, "Don't even think about hiding from me! I...don't forget that I have information that can be used against you!"

Han Jia even felt delighted as he watched him flew into a fit of rage, shouting endlessly, and when he was finally done, he said unhurriedly: "I didn't say that I was going to hide from you."

Jiang Xiaoning was stunned, "You...didn't you say..."

Han Jia looked at him: "You have a bad temper which I have already experienced, but I can endure it. You're quick to be anxious and impulsive with your words, unfortunately, I think it's cute; sometimes you don't like to return home, and my place here is considerably comfortable; you're a student, I will encourage you to study and provide you with everything that you need." He smiled, "Jiang Xiaoning, I'm not a good person and I owe you twice. You don't have to sympathize with me, you don't have to cook for me or be good to me, and you definitely don't need to 'get along' with me. You only need to treat me like..." He tilted his head to think, "A servant, a nanny, a landlord or even a sponsor - they're all okay."

He stood up and reached out to Jiang Xiaoning, "I'll get straight to the point, aside from anything that involves sex, I will do everything else that you want me to do. This is how we are going to get along from now on, okay?"

As he spoke, Jiang Xiaoning was staring at him the entire time; his expression changed from anger to embarrassment and as if he was being confessed to, he turned red in the face before looking unconvinced and reluctant - in the end, he just seemed slightly awkward.

Han Jia's hand was still stretched out awaiting his answer, however, Jiang Xiaoning took a step back instead. He lowered his head and thought for what seemed like half a day before he looked up. "This... you want to repay a debt of kindness?"

Han Jia laughed again: "And atonement, isn't this what you've always thought?"

Jiang Xiaoning ignored that and looked at him stubbornly, seeking confirmation: "Repaying my kindness, and not my father's, correct?"

Han Jia held back his smile and spoke seriously, "Correct."

Jiang Xiaoning remained silent for a moment and then said, "You have to put me first and no one is more important than me."

Han Jia observed his earnest appearance and also said firmly, "Okay." When Jiang Xiaoning did not speak, he asked, "There are no other requests? For example, I have to answer whatever questions you ask?"

In truth, he had only meant to tease Jiang Xiaoning, but Jiang Xiaoning looked at him with a pair of undeniably stern eyes. "No, just that one request."

After he said that, as if afraid that Han Jia would regret it, he stepped forward and held the hand that had stopped in midair and looked at him straight in the eyes.

"Then you have to remember that I am the most important, more important than my father, more important than all your lovers."
