At one of the most expensive restaurants in the city, Xia Qing Shu is guided by the waiter to the designated private room. Chen Zhiyu had already arrived early and was sitting on the sofa, working with his computer, when he saw him enter, he beckoned him to wash his hands.

"Mr. Chen, why are you inviting me to dinner?" Xia Qingshu's voice was sullen. It had been a tiring day, he had met with too many people, he had been spinning like a spinning wheel all day, and he was planning to rest early in the evening when he received an invitation to dinner from Chen Zhiyu.

He hadn't planned to come, but Secretary Li had said something very serious on the phone, so he had to make the trip.

Xia Qing Shu washed his hands and squeezed the towel to wipe the water. The long, white fingers were wet, like white jade dipped in cold water.

Chen Zhiyu closed the computer, and did not answer the question, his eyes flicked around Qinshu's fingers and asked, "Did you met my mother?"

Xia Qingshu yawned, not in the best of spirits, "Yes."

He had probably just taken a shower and changed his clothes, and the freshness of his body could be smelled from a distance, still smelling familiarly of lemon milk.

Chen Zhiyu lowered his eyes, "My mother gave you a card, why don't you want it?"

Xia Qingshu gave him a look and sighed, "I'd like to." But your mother's request was outrageous, not only did she ask him to leave Chen Zhiyu, she also asked him to use He Chen as a stand-in to make up a pair with He Chen.

Did she ask He Chen? Was he willing to do so? He had not read many novels and had never seen such a dogged and magical plot, so he was stuck and missed the best time to bargain. The chance to achieve financial freedom flew away just like that. What a shame.

He Chen, who was such a stinky fart and had always treated him like a licking dog, threw a glass on the spot when he heard that he had suddenly become a stand-in for a licking dog. He had just also sent him a message asking to talk to him alone. He was sure it would not be a nice talk.

This day and night, so many people are looking for him to talk to, he has cancer, and they still won't leave him alone. Originally, he thought that crossing over into book was easy, just dealing with a few paper people, but he didn't expect that life in a book wasn't that so simple.

Thinking about how uncomplicated life is and how hard the world is, Xia Qing Shu frowned and sighed once again with a full fledged sigh, the small white face crumbling tightly.

Damn, it's too hard on me!

"Take it if you want it, why did you give up?" Chen Zhiyu raised his eyes to look over and saw that Xia Qing Shu's face looked torn and helpless in the choice between love and money. His white face was wrinkled into a ball, sighing and heavy-hearted.

Only a nineteen-year-old boy could be so determined about love. A man like him, who has passed through the floundering of society, has long since given up the pursuit of love. This deep love was destined to go unanswered.

"I can't do what Auntie is asking." Xia Qing Shu propped his head up with one head, his eyes empty, missing the departed black card. As he worried, he couldn't help but yawn.

Chen Zhiyu looked at his sleepless face and was somewhat amused. When he first took over the company, the elders in his family had warned him that "the business world is like a battlefield", and he had seen too many people with a heart of gold, and some had more hearts than a honeycomb coal. Never had he seen Xia Qing Shu like this, expressing his desires in an outspoken manner.

He said directly that he liked him, and frankly admitted he wanted the money. He's very real.

Chen Zhiyu sat opposite him and stared at his fingers, "Pass me a cigarette."

Xia Qing Shu picked up the cigarette and looked at it, hesitantly saying, "Smoking is not good for your health."


Recently, he didn't know what was going on, but he felt sick when he smelled smoke. He didn't have this problem before, but after he got sick, had he become more delicate?

Chen Zhiyu: "Trying to control me?" Xia Qingshu lifted his eyes and looked at him, not saying anything.

Why did this sound so strange? There seemed to be something wrong with the whole family surnamed Chen. Xia Qingshu lowered his eyelids, but still handed over the cigarette case and explained in a small voice, "I'm a bit unwell, and I feel bad when I smell smoke."

Chen Zhiyu took a cigarette out of the box and played with it in his hand, deliberating back and forth, but finally did not light it. He put the cigarette on the table and pressed his voice to say, "Squeamish."

His voice was already low, deliberately pressed and slurred as he spat it out, his tone seemed to have a hook hidden in it, and between one breath and the other, it made the surrounding air a little strange and ambiguous.

Xia Qingshu took a sharp breath: mama, it's too weird, goose bumps are rising. He took a peek at Chen Zhiyu and found that the other man looked serious and normal.

At that moment, the waiter came in with the menu and Xia Qing Shu hurriedly withdrew his gaze. Chen Zhiyu pretended to be unaware of the other party's prying eyes and skillfully quoted a few favourite dishes, and asked the waiter to give the menu to Xia Qing Shu, so that he could order what he liked.

Xia Qingshu finished his order and held a bowl of iced sugar white fungus in both hands, his eyes staring out of the window as he took small sips. Outside the private room there was a small river with a few flower lanterns by the river.The air conditioning is on adequately, but his cheeks are flushed, as if with rouge. His lips were stained with soup, shiny, and when it was about to run down his lips, he stuck out his tongue and licked it quickly, like a pretty, cunning little cat.

Chen Zhiyu handed over a tissue, "What are you looking at?"

"This restaurant is not doing well." Xia Qingshu remembered the prices of the dishes he had just seen and pointed to the empty table outside the window, "It's sold at such a high price, it must not taste good for there to be no customers."

From the moment he entered, he noticed that there was only their table in the large restaurant.

"It tastes good, I come often.

"Then how come there are no customers?"

Chen Zhiyu returned carelessly, "I've booked the entire place."

Xia Qingshu: "......"

Thinking about the courtyard, the gold mine, the pictures of antiques, and the pair of gold armour suspected to have been stripped from the Terracotta warriors that he saw today. Chen Zhiyu's way of showing off his wealth was much more subtle than his mother.

"Oh, thanks then."

Chen Zhiyu looked out the window, "After eating, you can go to the river for a stroll, there are small boats along the river, and you can also release flower lanterns."

Xia Qingshu had been transmigrated for so long and had to deal with different relationships every day, having just taken care of his extreme relatives and bullying classmates, and seeing that he could lie like a salty fish for a while, he found himself in spirits again. His eyes lit up and his head hooked to look out. The sad face he had just now disappeared in an instant.

The pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes were very lively.

Chen Zhiyu secretly said, "Children are too easily satisfied."

Because there was only one table of customers, the food was served very quickly, and in less than five minutes after placing the order, a cold earth chicken was served up. The dish sold very well at he restaurant, an azure stone medium plate with two small decorative white flowers on the side, the chicken was placed in the centre of the plate in a regular manner, drizzled with hot oil and sprinkled with spring onions and sesame seeds, one could smell the fragrance of pepper and chicken from a long distance.

Xia Qing Shu, who had recently developed a good appetite, pinched his chopsticks and swallowed several times, his eyes almost falling into the chicken.

"Mr. Chen, do you want rice?" Xia Qingshu saw Chen Zhiyu nodded and asked the waiter to order two bowls of rice.

"Eat up." Chen Zhiyu felt that if he didn't open his mouth, Xia Qingshu's mouth would be drooling onto the table. Xia Qing Shu used to come from a good family, he was not someone who hadn't seen anything, and his family was good now, Xia Lao Er was the cook, so he could just say what he wanted to eat. He didn't know what was going on, but lately he just gets hungry fast and sleep a lot, and when he see food that suits his fancy, he greedily eats it up.

Xia Qing Shu took a chopstick of chicken covered with red oil and sesame seeds and put it into his mouth ...... The meat was strong, spicy and not too harsh, with icing sugar and a light sweetness. It was served with pearl white rice, delicious.

A short while later, various dishes were served one after another, and Xia Qing Shu focused on the food and dried rice. Although the meal was considered a reward for Xia Qingshu, the other party's practice of just eating without seizing the opportunity to get close to him gave Chen Zhiyu the illusion of being left out.

The little friend is silly and honest.

Chen Zhiyu simply ate two chopsticks of food and took the initiative to speak, "I've heard about your birth story."

Xia Qingshu chucked a piece of pan-fried veal steak and stuffed it into his mouth, glanced at him, shut up and chewed without answering.

"Uncle Xia came to see me today and said you didn't want to go home?" Chen Zhiyu pushed the pan-fried veal steak in front of Xia Qing Shu.

Xia Qingshu swallowed a mouthful of rice and continued to chuck the dish.

Chen Zhiyu asked again, "What are your plans?"

Chen Zhiyu had asked three times already, so Xia Qingshu had to reply. He seemed to remember that Chen Zhiyu's character was of an iceberg that didn't like to talk, so why was he talking so much today.

Can we finish eating before we say anything.

He chewed quickly for about ten times and swallowed his food, "I see that they are quite good to their adopted son, I am afraid that they will be biased and will recognize me back but then treat me badly. The adopted son's name is Xia Yubin, you know him too, right?"

After Xia Qing Shu finished speaking, he put down her chopsticks and stared at Chen Zhiyu seriously.

Xia Yubin? Xia Shan's younger brother, whom he had met him a few times. Chen Zhiyu did not answer immediately.

Xia Qing Shu hurriedly described, "The day you came to give a speech, I was supposed to be a volunteer, but then something came up and I didn't go, so that boy took my place as a volunteer, you guys have met before, right?"

Xia Qing Shu lowered his eyes and pretended not to care much, but in reality, he wanted to rushed to the front line of eating melons and enjoying the show. He hadn't forgotten that "Exclusive Favourite" was a novel with a complicated unsplitting male to male relationship, and he wondered how many men Xia Yubin had captured now? Thinking of the unnameable descriptions in the text, Xia Qing Shu's small face flushed and he hurriedly poured a large mouthful of water.

Chen Zhiyu skimmed over the other party's red cheeks and returned indifferently, "I know."

Xia Qingshu clenched hid fist for a moment, sure enough.

"You guys ...... How's the relationship?"

How far is it going now? Exclusive Favorites is a serialized text, it was not yet finished when he read it, Xia Qing Shu was very curious about the ending, wondering how it would be a HE with so many attackers. As of the part he had seen, there were eight attackers, one a day, not enough for a week's worth of turns.

Chen Zhiyu saw the tension in his fake strong expression, and after a pause, said, "Not familiar."

Tsk, the way the little kid was jealous, it was quite cute.

Xia Qing Shu was puzzled up, how could he not be familiar, according to the timeline, Xia Yubin had already piqued Chen Zhiyu's interest, and by the day he died, Chen Zhiyu would confess his love himself. Could it be that he wouldn't die now, so the plot had deviated as well?

Xia Qing Shu was a bit more serious: "Really not familiar?"

Chen Zhiyu held back a smile, "Really." He briefly described the fact that he had met Xia Yubin a total of two times, once at the hospital, where he was splashed with coffee and had his clothes soiled by the other party. The second time was a speech at school, and Xia Yubin paid for the soiled clothes. There were no more encounters after that.

"Oh." Xia Qing Shu was a little disappointed after hearing this.

That was it, it was too unexciting.

Only after he finished speaking did Chen Zhiyu suddenly wake up to why he had to explain so clearly to Xia Qing Shu. And whydid Xia Qingshu react in such a calm manner after hearing it? Chen Zhiyu raised his head and stared firmly at Xia Qingshu, not letting go of every subtle expression on his face.

At this moment, the child is 100% secretly happy. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to eat so well.

The two of them continued to eat their meal, each with his own thoughts. Suddenly, Chen Zhiyu opened his mouth and asked, "What do you want to do in the future?"

Chen Zhiyu did not explicitly explain the purpose of the dinner invitation tonight, but the topic always, if anything, revolved around his biological family, and Xia Qing Shu guessed that, based on Chen Zhiyu's relationship with the Xia family, nine times out of ten he had been asked by Xia Jing to be a lobbyist.

Xia Qingshu rubbed his nose, did he and Chen Zhiyu look that close to outsiders?

"I want to be a salted fish with money."

Lying around with no worry about clothes or food, no need to go to various study courses or acting training classes, no need to practice the piano, no more lack of sleep. Just lie around and do nothing.

Oh, and to eat melons, lying down and eating melons.

Hearing the reply, Chen Zhiyu smiled, the child is really natural in front of him, saying everything without any scruples. He picked up a towel to wipe his hands, "Have you eaten yet, salted fish, go out for a walk."

Xia Qingshu: "Wait, I'll eat another bowl."

LanTong and the wetland park were separated by a small river, and standing by the river, one could see the dappled shadows of the park's trees. The moon was bright tonight and there are only a few low ground lights on the riverside path, perfect for a couple's walk. The river boat can be taken around Lantong Garden and the restaurant provides river lanterns which will be collected after release.

After Xia Qing Shu stepped onto the river boat, he found the atmosphere a little unusual. The expensive restaurant, the quiet river, the bright moon hanging overhead, the soft breeze from the forest blowing Xia Qing Shu's bangs, brought a slight coolness. If there were two more violinists, Xia Qing Shu would have thought it was a marriage proposal.

But the other person was Chen Zhiyu, the scholarship winner of the male virtue class, and Xia Qing Shu did not think of him in terms of love at all, only that the other person was a tool that Xia Jing had invited to make him recognize his relatives.

As the river boat wandered quietly through the water, Chen Zhiyu saw him reach up to fix his bangs and stood in the shadows and hooked his mouth.

Finding time to time to fix your hair. This kid, paying special attention to your image in front of your sweetheart.

The river boat had sailed fifty metres and Xia Qingshu was standing at the bow, holding a pink lantern, the warm light reflecting on his face, pink and puffy.

Suddenly, an abrupt "click" interrupted the quietness of the night as the old and dilapidated power pole slowly tilted from the other side of the river bank. The sound was heard and Xia Qing Shu looked up, holding a lamp, his whole body already shrouded in the shadow of the pole.

"......"

Is it too late to run? Just in this thousandth of a second, countless thoughts rushed through his mind.

As cannon fodder, could he not avoid certain death no matter what?

Would he be able to return after death?

I hope being smashed doesn't hurt too much. Finally, he closed his eyes and frowned tightly as the pounding wind blew the broken hair from his forehead.

Just then, he felt a gust of wind hit him. He was pounced upon. All that could be heard was a "crunch" and a muffled grunt from the person who had pounced on him.

Xia Qing Shu opened his eyes and found himself lying on the boat, with Chen Zhi Yu holding him and the back of his hand behind his back. Closer to him, Xia Qingshu noticed that Chen Zhiyu's forehead and the tip of his nose were covered in fine sweat, his shirt with its folds was also scuffed with a large gash, and his legs were not only pressed against an electric pole, but also wrapped with several wires, and his calf bones appeared visibly deformed.

"Frightened?" Chen Zhiyu crouched over Xia Qing Shu, at first able to support his body with his arms, then it all pressed against Xia Qing Shu, pressing them tightly against each other.

Only then did Xia Qingshu react and shouted to the staff, "Call an ambulance, Mr. Chen, how are you? Did it smash into you?"

He struggled to get up, but as soon as he moved, he heard Chen Zhiyu let out a "hiss".

"Mr. Chen, how are you? Are you hurt badly?" When Xia Qingshu saw the condition of Chen Zhiyu's leg, his heart clenched and his teeth shook hard. If Chen Zhiyu didn't save him and the electric pole fell down and hit him directly on the head, he would have died, right?

How painful it would be to be crushed by such a heavy pole! He had just lost his mind, why hadn't he dodged in time!

The restaurant attendants all came out, called an ambulance and the staff came up to remove the pole. Not daring to move the injured man at will because they didn't know where he was hurt, the two remained in an embracing position.

"I'm sorry, it's all my ...... fault."

If he had reacted faster to dodge, Chen Zhiyu would not have been injured to save him. Suddenly, he smelt a smell of blood and felt wetness next to the other man's legs and feet. It was bleeding, and there was quite a lot of blood. Xia Qing Shu couldn't help it, his voice trembled a little, "Mr. Chen, I'm sorry ......"

"How do I blame you?" Chen Zhiyu was lying on top of him, it was so painful that his soul was almost out of his body, but he was calm, "The culprit is this concrete stake, wait until I get up and knock it down."

Xia Qing Shu nodded sparingly, "Mmmm, knock it to pieces."

The strong smell of milk was close at hand, and Chen Zhiyu felt as if he was pressing on top of a melting milk candy, fragrant and sweet. Taking a deep breath, the tearing pain seemed much lighter.

He frowned and asked in a hoarse voice, "Can you light a cigarette for me?"



Chapter 27


He is thinking of sleeping with me

The water level of the river rose in the summer, and the electric piles near the shore were somewhat old, because they were located in a remote area, it did not affect the city's appearance, and did not enter the municipal rectification plan. The pole was in a state of disrepair and had cracks at the bottom, and now it was soaked in water and showed signs of loosening.

The ambulance arrived soon afterwards and Chen Zhiyu was carried on a stretcher to the ambulance, where he was given an IV. Xia Qing Shu sat on the benches on either side of the carriage, his eyes drooping as he watched Chen Zhiyu lying on the stretcher. His leg had been bandaged to stop the bleeding, and the white blanket covering them did not look too bad.

His face was pale and he lay there weakly, but he has a morbidly handsome air about him. In the process of pulling Xia Qinshu, two buttons had fallen off his shirt, and he fumbled with one hand to button it to the top one and retie the hem of the shirt into his trousers.

Xia Qing Shu did not have the heart to admire his sickly face, the pretty white face wrinkled into a ball, his voice trembling beyond words, "Brother Zhi Yu .....are you still in pain ...... Let the nurse lady give you a shot if it hurts."

He felt a little itch on his face and reached out to touch it, his cheeks were all wet.

The glistening white and translucent little face looked like it had been soaked in a stream of water, glistening with a surplus of moisture. Why was he crying?

By the time Xia Qing Shu realised as an afterthought that the tears could no longer be held up, he stubbornly held back his tears, his pretty eyes hazed. His lips were bitten by his teeth, half red and half white, so bright and shaky.

"It doesn't hurt."

Chen Zhiyu's body froze, this scene, it seemed like he had seen it somewhere ......

The pain was definitely painful, Chen Zhiyu guessed that the seriousness could be a fracture, and the lightest condition was a bone fracture. But not knowing what was going on, he could not cry out in pain in front of Xia Qingshu. Even less could he get a shot in front of him. Even if he smashed his leg, he was still the same Chen Zhiyu who remained unchanged even in front of Mount Tai collapsed infront of him.

Chen Zhiyu secretly took a deep breath and said with a bland expression, "I'm fine, let Secretary Li take you back first later."

"I'm not leaving, I'm waiting for you to do the surgery." Xia Qing Shu's eyes were watery and his hands were squeezed tightly.

"No, I really Fine."

"You see, after your surgery, in case something happens in the middle of the night, I can also have a take care of you by your side."

Although Xia Qingshu was pretty, he was usually stammering and silly, like a child who hadn't grown up, and could speak in a way that could piss people off. Now, when things went wrong, he seems to have grown up overnight and understands things.

Unbelievably cute.

His voice was as soft as a clear stream, and his face was unusually determined despite his obedient appearance, "Brother Zhiyu, I still have to light your cigarette."

The expression on his face was like that of a stubborn, pretty little goat. Just one look at him made people want to take him home and secretly hide him away. Chen Zhiyu also had such thoughts.

"Brother Zhiyu, are you smoking now? I'll light it for you."

Xia Qingshu clumsily took out a packet of cigarettes from Chen Zhiyu's trouser pocket. Perhaps because he was too nervous and afraid of touching the other man's injury, the cigarette case was pulled out and was squeezed by him to be absurdly flat, he managed to pull a cigarette out of it, and it broke.

"Brother Zhiyu, sorry, you'll have to make do with it, I'll buy you a new pack when we get to the hospital later." Xia Qing Shu pinched half a cigarette round and stuffed it into Chen Zhiyu's mouth.

Chen Zhiyu opened his mouth, and when he was holding the cigarette, he suddenly bit into Xia Qing Shu's finger. The jade onion-like fingers were soft as if they were boneless and fragrant with milk. The touch was three points softer than milk candy. After watching his finger all night, he bit into it "accidentally".

The cigarette fell out through the gap between his fingers and teeth. Xia Qing Shu was a bit confused, he cautiously reminded.


"Brother Zhiyu, you've bitten my finger."

Chen Zhiyu was in a bit of a trance, he didn't seem to hear what the other party said, instead he bit down even tighter. Xia Qing Shu froze, not moving.

Brother Zhiyu, did he go dumb with pain? He used to watch TV, when a pregnant woman gave birth, when the pain was unbearable, the husband would hold his hand for the pregnant woman to bite on to ease the pain.

Is Brother Zhiyu now confused by the pain? If Zhiyu brother wants to bite, just bite it.

Xia Qing Shu is somewhat afraid of pain, when the other party's teeth touched it, his body couldn't help but tremble, and his eyes that were filled with water filled even more. Only, the expected pain did not appear, his fingers were bitten and ground. Occasionally, he could feel the wet moist tip of the tongue approaching. It was itchy, just not painful.

Xia Qingshu looked over with a dumb face, naive, was Brother Zhiyu in so much pain that he had even lost his ability to bite?

The nurse lady next to him couldn't stand to watch anymore and coughed several times before Chen Zhiyu came back to his senses and spat out the finger in his mouth. The round fingertips were bitten red, and the nail caps were pink and shiny covered with a layer of saliva, like they had just been painted with nail polish.

Xia Qingshu glanced at the wet finger and quietly wiped the saliva onto Chen Zhiyu's clothes as he knelt down to pick up the cigarette. He picked up the dropped cigarette and the cigarette filter was stained with black ash. He wiped it with his hand, the ash did not get wiped off, and he blew the ash with his mouth again. His small, red mouth puckered up and he blew air into the mouthpiece of the cigarette. The ash was blown off and the yellow filter was tainted with a different aroma.

Almost clean, Xia Qingshu stuffed the cigarette back into Chen Zhiyu's mouth. Chen Zhiyu opened his mouth and took the cigarette. This time, he did not bite his finger.

After holding the cigarette, the pain in Chen Zhiyu's leg seemed to diminish by two points.

Qinshu carefully pried open the blanket covering Chen Zhiyu's leg and reached into his trouser pocket again to find a lighter. As soon as he reached in, Chen Zhiyu let out a hiss and his face turned cold again.

"I'm sorry ...... I didn't mean to." When Xia Qing Shu heard his "hiss", he hurriedly retracted his hand and went to call the nurse with a red face, "Miss Nurse, please come and check."

The nurse sat in front and gave them both a look.

Just now, you were sipping on fingers, showing nothing serious wrong.

"Hang in there, we'll be at the hospital soon, no smoking in the car."

Xia Qingshu whispered, "Miss nurse, my brother is like this, you can be accommodating."

"It will stop hurting after a while, the leg is broken, why are you still smoking," the nurse stared at the cigarette in Xia Qing Shu's hand, "Also, you can't smoke in the hospital."

Xia Qing Shu was about to say more when Chen Zhi Yu took off half of the cigarette and put it in his hand, "Forget it, I can smoke it when you am well."

"But you are so uncomfortable, smoke one to distract yourself ......" Xia Qingshu flung the cigarette with one hand and squeezed the lighter with the other, unknowingly using a honorifics.

After he crossed over, he had always lived his life with the game mentality of getting by and eating the melons, watching the show. He didn't feel that deep about the identity he suddenly acquired. He felt that he was a bystander and would leave one day. Maybe one day he would read a few books and cross over again.

It was only at the moment when danger came that he became acutely aware of the reality of the world he was in. This is the world of living colour, where people are flesh and blood, good and bad, hurt and bleeding and hurting, crying and laughing. He has always thought of Chen Zhiyu as a violent villain, prejudiced against him and always on guard, but he was saved by the 'bad guy' in the book.

In their relationship, apart from the first time they met, when Chen Zhiyu showed hostility towards him, Chen Zhiyu was a normal person with clear likes and dislikes at all times. Just now he had the delusion of returning to the original world through death, so if he was hit, he would really be dead, right?

After thinking about it, Xia Qingshu felt ashamed of his foolish thoughts and at the same time was so moved by the other party's actions that he unknowingly had his eyes reddened and two lines of tears flowed down the corners of his eyes. He rarely cried for real before, but he didn't know what had happened recently, his tastes had changed, his sense of smell had become more acute, his emotions had become more plentiful, and he was particularly sleepy.

He wanted to turn his head and wipe the tears away secretly, Chen Zhiyu pulled his hand, "Why are you crying again, did the pole accidentally hit you? Let's go to the hospital later for a detailed examination."

"No, I didn't cry ......" Xia Qing Shu stabilized his mind and forced the remaining tears to stay in his eyes. The white little face was stained with some ash, and his eyes were red and filled with tears that would not fall off. He was biting his lip in a feigned strength. However, such an expression had nothing to do with strength, and it set him off in a way that was particularly endearing.

Chen Zhiyu glanced at the beautiful, stubborn little cat in front of him and surprisingly did not realize that his voice was too gentle to be true, "Don't cry, I'm fine."

"Don't cry, be good ......"

"I'm not crying." Xia Qing Shu was so anxious that tears began to slide down uncontrollably. A glistening white and translucent tear slid down his cheek and neck, all the way to the collarbone, leaving it in a deep depression. There were some red marks on his face, presumably from wiping the tears, right on both cheeks, and her whole wet face looked like it had been powdered, delicate as a red and white hibiscus out of the water.

"I really am not crying ......"

Xia Qing Shu also does not know what the reason is, he tried hard to control, but the tears still could not stop falling down.

What is wrong with him?

Maybe it was the grievance of suddenly transmigrating into a book, the grievance of being....on the first day crossing into the book... The grievancd of encountering extreme relatives ...... The grievance of encountering school bullying ..... Finally he can't help it ......

"I won't cry ......" Xia Qing Shu had a tear-stained face and he let the tears flow down.

He looked bright, red-eyed and pursing his lips in tears, like a stubborn elf. Chen Zhiyu was stunned when he suddenly remembered where he had seen this scene before.

The night the two had met for the first time, Xia Qing Shu also cried. Not in silent tears like now, but in small whimpers. Every now and then, he even begged hoarsely for mercy. But now, Xia Qing Shu quietly weeping, obviously he did not make a sound, that annoying "whimpering" sound, seemed as if in his ears again.

"...... Please ......"

"...... Oooohhh ......"

"It hurts ......"

Missing memories intertwined with unfounded imaginations, Chen Zhiyu seemed to be hallucinating.

No one in the car spoke, only the whistling wind and the chirping of the ambulance siren. The self-control that once dominated the crowd was absent in this moment. To avoid embarrassment, Chen Zhiyu reached up and touched the injured leg.

A hard squeeze.

The bone-chilling pain spread throughout his body and his head was drenched in cold sweat, finally, he didn't lose his composure.

Seeing Chen Zhiyu's face turn blue and red for a while, Xia Qing Shu tensed up again, "Brother Zhiyu, what's wrong, is it still hurting?"

He squatted down and put his hands on the hospital bed. Afraid of not hearing clearly, he turned his face sideways and sidled closer to Chen Zhiyu.

Chen Zhiyu raised his eyes and saw his small, delicate, white, clean ears.

"Brother Zhiyu, speak louder, I can't hear too clearly ......"

Not hearing a reply from the other party, Xia Qing Shu twisted his face and looked at Chen Zhiyu in confusion.

Chen Zhiyu straightened up and met the pair of reddened teary eyes. Between the twinkling of his eyes, he hid his deep love.

The way the little one's true feelings flowed out, it made people's hearts soften to the core. A mountain of shock came over him. Aboy who is so beautiful and well-behaved was deeply in love with him......

Chen Zhiyu was suddenly lost in thought, he turned his head and closed his eyes before he felt his breathing smoothed out. But between one breath and the next, Xia Qing Shu's crying appearance played like a revolving light on a loop under his eyes.

He gritted his teeth and squeezed on his injured leg again.

The little nurse next to him looked at him and secretly smacked her lips. She couldn't imagine that the richest man in China was secretly an "M" He couldn't be satisfied with his leg being smashed and cracked, and even he quietly had to pinch himself a few times as well.

Finally, Xia Qing Shu's tears stopped and asked tremblingly, "Brother Zhiyu, are you better?"

Chen Zhiyu sank back down after several pinches of hatred, and had no time to worry. The old wound had not yet healed, and a new one had been added.

He said calmly, "I know in my heart, I think it's a bone fracture."

"Bone fracture" come out of his mouth as easily as clipping a fingernail. He was Chen Zhiyu, and from the moment he was born, he was destined to ride the waves and overcome difficulties. A broken bone is nothing, even if it's an amputation, it's just a matter of smoking it off with a cigarette.

As he spoke, he inclined his head and tried to avoid Xia Qing Shu's eyes.

"The bones are cracked, and you are still fine?" Xia Qing Shu strained his little pink face, eyes wide open.

"Why are you like a child, you can't stop crying when you cry." Chen Zhiyu said and was about to reach for the tissue on the stool to prove that he was not only fine, but also able to handle it with ease.

"Ugh, you don't move, I'll do it myself." Xia Qingshu could not let the wounded man do it, and hastily picked up the tissue and wiped the tears from his face.

After wiping it clean, he stressed again, "I'm not crying."

Chen Zhiyu lay back down again, "Why are you still using honorifics?"

"I just feel like I have to be respectful to you."

Thinking about playing dumb in front of Zhiyu, Xia Qing Shu couldn't help but blush, "If you want anything in the future, just give me an order."

Xia Qing Shu originally wanted to say, "I will repay you for saving my life, you will be my new parent from now on but there was only a six-year difference between them, so treating him like a parent didn't quite make sense. Putting aside what happened on the night of their first meeting, Xia Qingshu felt that Chen Zhiyu was a pretty nice person. Just think of him as a very respectful big brother.

"So you changed to calling me .... Brother Zhiyu now?"

"Mm-hmm." Xia Qing Shu nodded his head.

"Call it out, I want to hear it." Chen Zhiyu whispered.

His voice was a trifle muffled, and he deliberately controlled the volume so that only Xia Qingshu could hear it, and the nurse who was very close to them didn't notice. In the small ambulance compartment, there was a sense of secrecy in whispering behind people's backs, as if the two had an intimate relationship.

Xia Qing Shu: "....."

Pretty eyes rolled and glanced round at Chen Zhiyu's head. Make sure the other person didn't hit his head. Why was there something strange in Brother Zhiyu's eyes? Could the liquid infusion have a hallucinogenic effect? But the other party was a patient and had also saved his life, so Xia Qingshu did not hesitate and meekly shouted, "Brother Zhiyu."

Unlike what he had acted in the past, Xia Qing Shu was truly well behaved, like a tame little sheep. He was beautiful looking, and when he looked down at people, his eyes were full of stars. His attitude serious and pious. Up close, his snow-white skin looks more like a milk toffee. A milky white, and pampered little sheep.

Chen Zhiyu's hand hidden in the sheet squeezed, "Brother Zhiyu asks you to go home first and come back tomorrow to care after me."

The child is stubborn and obstinate in dealing with his feelings, and even eight horses can't pull him back from what he has decided.

He used to treat his suitors in a calm manner, and even avoided them deliberately. Xia Qing Shu was the only one. Somehow, he could tolerate Xia Qing Shu's liking, and sometimes even had some peace of mind when he thought of it.

Chen Zhiyu tilted his face sideways and gave Xia Qing Shu a faint look. Xia Qing Shu's eyes couldn't hide anything, and eagerly showed his determination to stay with him and refusal to leave even if it killed him. Knowing that Xia Qing Shu liked him like crazy, but didn't show it so obviously.

Tsk, this kid.

"I'm not leaving." Xia Qingshu said, "In case you want to drink water at night or something, I'm here to take care of you."

"There are nurses at the hospital."

"The nurses aren't careful, I'm afraid they'll drop you."

He had grown up in the hospital, and when his mother was filming, she was away for months at a time, and his father brought him to the hospital. Sometimes there was no time to take care of him when there were many operations, so he would run to the ward when he was bored. And some of the carers slept so much at night that they couldn't wake up after half a day of shouting, and some patients were so thin-skinned that they endured pain all night.

In the book, the original body's death had everything to do with Chen Zhiyu, but the reality is that Chen Zhiyu pulled him back from the brink of death. Perhaps because of the suspension bridge effect, Xia Qingshu's emotions were a little stirred at the moment, but his heart was firm to repay the favour.

Chen Zhiyu was unaware of Xia Qingshu's thoughts, but felt that this child was stubborn and would not even listen to him. He was almost at the hospital, the fluids were mostly infused, the pain in his legs was almost gone, his tense nerves were relaxed and his innate and proud self-control was restored.

He said, "There is no bed in the ward, where will you sleep then?"

Xia Qing Shu immediately replied, "There is a folding bed in the ward, I will sleep next to you, you can see me when you look down and wake me up when you shout."

Now he is thinking of sleeping next to him.

Chen Zhiyu seriously asked, "You seem to be quite experienced, you haven't done this...before, have you?"

Xia Qing Shu hurriedly shook his head, "Never slept with anyone else."

Chen Zhiyu swept past the nurse, who was in contact with a colleague. They were almost at the hospital. He curled his lips and asked, "So tonight is your "first time" ?"

"Uh-huh, yes," Xia Qingshu nodded. He intuited that there was something odd about Brother Zhiyu, and couldn't quite put his finger on what it was. In the end, he came to the conclusion that any male virtue class scholarship winner must have a bedside companion who had to be a first-time bedside escort.

Well, it would fit the persona.

Xia Qingshu quickly explained, "When I was hospitalized last time, I didn't know until I saw that there was an accompanying bed next door. That kind of folding bed is put away during the day and placed next to the hospital bed at night. It is very convenient to take care of patients. I have never been with others, you are the first."

"In case you need water or something in the middle of the night, just call me."

It was the first time Chen Zhiyu had seen him so obedient, "Then if I want to go to the toilet at night, I'll call you too?"

Xia Qingshu nodded firmly, "Call me!"



Chapter 28


He is crazy about me

In less than half an hour, the ambulance drove into the most luxurious private hospital in the city with a beep.

Before the car had even stopped, Secretary Li was waiting at the hospital's main entrance with seven or eight people. Chen Zhiyu was carried out on a hospital bed and pushed to the radiology department. Xia Qing Shu followed him, running along the way.

Secretary Li, with his men, ran on the other side, like a flock of ducklings chasing after the mother duck.

Chen Zhiyu narrowed his eyes and stared at the group of people following behind Secretary Li, asking, "What are they for?"

Secretary Li returned, "Boss, bedside escorts and temporary nurses."

"Am I going to be paralysed?" Chen Zhiyu's tone was mocking.

Secretary Li froze and fell back a step. He had worked beside the boss for many years and knew his temperament well. What mattered was the desire of these people to serve the boss, and the grandeur of the process of selecting them. The more the carer shows his desire for the job, the more he is doing a good job. Is it that you don't like the people? Or was it that the people weren't enthusiastic enough?

The secretary glanced back at the group behind him and wondered...no, he had told them to be more enthusiastic when they met the boss before they arrived. When these people were chasing the bed, they were working very hard and their faces were very expressive, more sad than if it were the death of their own father.

Secretary Li did a quick analysis but couldn't make sense of it. When he stood still, he saw Xia Qing Shu, who was waiting for him at the door.

Xia Qing Shu's eyes were red, and the anxious eyes were very different from the impatience of his previous refusal to work overtime. He was so skinny and small, standing on tiptoe, looking into the emergency room with his neck hooked, quite like a young wife looking forward to her husband's return.

Secretary Li slapped his thigh and realisation dawned on him. He held up a hand to steady the seven temporary nurses who were following behind him.

"You are dismissed, and I will settle the related expenses."

Secretary Li dismissed the temporary escorts, handed the boss's change of clothes to Xia Qing Shu, sent a message to the boss, and left work early.

Boss, this is all I can do for you.

While waiting, Xia Qingshu called home to explain the situation. Xia Lao Er knew that Xia Qingshu would be accompanying Chen Zhiyu and brought him toiletries. He was so worried that he knew Chen Zhiyu had been injured to save Xia Qingshu and almost stayed with him personally.

He didn't know who leaked the news, but Chen Zhiyu's injury became known to the media and several reporters came to the hospital entrance. Xia Qingshu found the hospital security guards and sent the reporters away, and put Chen Zhiyu's personal belongings into the VIP single ward in advance. After everything was taken care of, Chen Zhiyu was pushed out by the nurses.

There were two rooms in the VIP ward, apart from the patient's room, there was also a smaller guest room. The nurse gave a couple of instructions and left. Xia Qingshu pushed the wheelchair and took his benefactor into the ward, and only then did he have time to ask about his condition.

After being hit by a hard object, Chen Zhiyu had a slight bone fracture in his leg bone, which did not require surgery, but his leg was also in a cast and he could not move very easily.

"Brother Zhiyu, does it hurt?" Xia Qingshu looked at the other man's plastered leg and gently poked it with his finger.


Chen Zhiyu shook his head.

The leg injury was not as serious as he thought, and he could take conservative treatment and go home tonight. Without Xia Qing Shu here, his original plan had been to go home. He was in a VIP ward with new sheets, and he still felt that the hospital bed was not very clean, having certain high requirements for cleanliness and hygiene. But he had promised to let the boy stay in bed with him, so if he went home, wouldn't the child be very disappointed.

Chen Zhiyu looked up and found that Xia Qing Shu's eyes were still a little red at the corners and his lips were tightly pursed, looking petulant and fragile. Just now he had cried a lot, if he knew he did not need to stay in the hospital tonight , he didn't know how sad the little guy would be, probably he'd hide and secretly cry all night.

A boy who is such a crybaby? Forget it, let's make an exception for him.

Chen Zhiyu decided to stay in the hospital tonight, he fulfilled his wish to accompany the child to the bed. He looked at the child's red face, his heart softened, and he blurted out, "Why don't you blow it for me? Maybe if you blow it, I won't be in pain."

Xia Qing Shu: "?"

This, what kind of strange request is this....

Did his head get hurt too? No, it was clearly the calf that was injured, the electric pole didn't hit the head, he had read all the reports. Besides, he was in a wheelchair, his feet were off the ground, his IQ was high, how could he make such a childish joke?

Xia Qing Shu took two steps back and carefully observed Chen Zhiyu, trying to find the slightest trace of head damage on his face.

His expression was serious and his eyes were wide open. After crying, the redness at the end of his eyes had not yet disappeared, and the small mole at the corner of his eyes was flanked by a cloud of red haze, becoming more and more eye-catching. The pink lips were slightly puffed up, and the lips were luscious. Even a person as tough as Chen Zhiyu, who was firm at heart, was tempted to tease Xia Qing Shu when he saw how well behaved and pretty he looked.

It was only after Chen Zhiyu had finished that he felt it was inappropriate.

What was wrong with him? How could he have said something so naughty?

But what was said was like water that had been thrown out, and there was no way to take it back. He glanced at Xia Qing Shu and immediately sat upright, trying to cover up his mistake.

Chen Zhiyu's features were sharp, his jawline was cold and hard, and his thin lips looked thin and unfeeling. When he is serious, his look is comparable to that of a news network announcer, with clear eyes and righteousness. He is particularly good at intimidating people. Chen Zhiyu is all hugely arrogant and upright look, on the contrary made Xia Qing Shu a bit sneaky.

Fine, a small request from the benefactor. It is just blowing the wound, it is not like asking him to go up to the mountain or into a sea of fire. The answer is yes.

Xia Qing Shu finished his psychological construction and squatted down. He slowly approached his leg, which was in a cast. Afraid of hurting the other side, he gently cupped his hands to the plastered leg, lips half open, like exhaling, and gently breathed out. Then, half tilting his head up, like a deer, his voice moistened and asked, "Brother Zhiyu, is it less painful now?"

Seeing that Chen Zhiyu did not say anything, Xia Qing Shu propped up his body a little and half squatted in front of Chen Zhiyu, "Shall I blow once more?"

Chen Zhiyu's body involuntarily shook a little and nodded blankly. Perhaps, he can consider, when the leg is healed, whether to fulfill the child's dream.

Xia Qing Shu blew on the plastered leg several times.

At first he wondered if Chen Zhiyu's head had been hit by an electric pole, then he saw Chen Zhiyu's face slowly turning red and sweat on the tip of his nose, as if he was having a hard time.

Xia Qingshu was instantly alerted, "Brother Zhiyu, what's wrong with you?"

Chen Zhiyu came back to his senses and said in a hoaarse voice, "Nothing ......"

He looked breathless, his face flushed and his brow furrowed as if he was holding back something.

Xia Qing Shu concluded that he must have something, but was just too embarrassed to say it, and hurriedly ran to the nurse station to call the nurse lady over. The nurse rushed over and rechecked Chen Zhiyu.

His blood pressure and other things were normal, but his heart rate was a bit fast, otherwise it was nothing serious, probably due to excessive blood loss. So he was advised to take rest and avoid strenuous exercise. Xia Qing Shu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother Zhiyu, wash up first." Xia Qingshu pushed Chen Zhiyu to the bathroom, washed his hands first, then disinfected them, and finally unwrapped his toothbrush. The toothpaste cap was a bit tight, and when he squeezed it hard, he didn't control the force, so the toothpaste shot out like a white thread, splashing far away and spraying some on his nose and cheeks.

Xia Qing Shu had been like this since he was a child, he was a bit careless and confused. He reached up and wiped a hand on the tip of his nose and instead of wiping the toothpaste off, he smeared it everywhere.

He cupped some water and wiped it on his face, trying to wash the toothpaste off. The toothpaste turned into a white foam when it met the water, and it hung in a quivering mass on the tip of his nose and on his cheeks.

"Brother Zhiyu, sorry, wait for me, I'll be ready in a minute."

Chen Zhiyu glanced at him lightly.

The white floculents hanging from his pink cheeks, coupled with that unbelievably pretty face, was particularly evocative. Before he had time to take a closer look, Chen Zhiyu immediately shifted his eyes. If it wasn't for the quick change of sight, he might have had to secretly pinch himself again.

Chen Zhiyu propped his hands on his wheelchair and stood up on one leg, propping himself up on the edge of the washbasin.

"You go out."

"Don't you need any help?" Xia Qing Shu put down the toothpaste and toothbrush.

"I'm taking a shower, how can you help?" Chen Zhiyu's eyes shifted down and landed on his hand holding the toothpaste.

Xia Qingshu's bony fingers were thin and looked a little smaller than the average adult male's hands, wet and also stained with some white flocculent material. His fingers were so white that the knuckles of his finger bones were permeated with pink, even the nail caps were pink. The fingers curled up and stood still without moving, a kind of overwhelmed by rejection.

Chen Zhiyu froze, perhaps, can let the little friend bee presumptuous for a while.

Xia Qingshu did not expect that Chen Zhiyu still wanted to take a bath when his foot had becomd like this, what an exquisite man. He had one foot in a cast and it could not touch the water, so when he took a bath, he should lift his injured leg. Should it be lifted in a "one" or a horizontal fold? It would be quite difficult to take a bath, but if the ligaments of the body were a little bit worse, the bath would not be successful.

Xia Qing Shu wanted to ask if the other party could do the splits, but felt it was impolite, so he just tentatively expressed his enthusiasm, "Brother Zhi Yu, I ......can I help lift your feet?"

"??"

Chen Zhiyu's face showed doubt, meaningfully sizing up the other party.

Xia Qing Shu thought of the other party's male virtue attribute, ran outside to get some thing and ran back in a breeze. The ward had prepared disposable eye masks, so Xia Qingshu returned to the bathroom and put them on, "Brother Zhiyu, don't worry, I can't see anything with this on."

Guaranteed to help keep your feet up high and not get a bit of water on them.

"Can't see a bit?" Chen Zhiyu reached out and waved his hand in front of him.

"Yes." Xia Qingshu took off the blindfold and handed it over, "Check if you don't believe me."

His eyelids were a little red and swollen, and the tears on his eyelashes hadn't dried, glistening with bright water. The nose was also a little red, setting off the surrounding skin, which was even whiter and more hydrated.

He was sincere in his repayment, no messy acting added, his eyes appeared pure and clear. The way he held the eye mask and looked up at him with his eyes was attractive.

Chen Zhiyu sucked in a sharp breath, this well-behaved little friend even wanted to wear an eye mask just to help him take a bath.

This is also....It was too presumptuous.

He looked down at his leg, which was wrapped in a cast. Not very convenient. In the end, he used what was left of his male virtue to force down the charming thoughts.

Wait a minute, wait until the leg injury heals, the nurse just said that no strenuous exercise is allowed recently.

Chen Zhiyu took a deep breath and stabilized his mind.

When he was just blown on his leg, he actually lost his cool. Had he not been sitting in a wheelchair with a blanket on his leg, the consequences would have been unthinkable. There was no way something like that could happen to him again.

Instead, this little friend, sharing a room with him, would be too happy to sleep.

Chen Zhiyu took another deep breath, then picked up the eye mask and said in an unmistakably decent tone, "Get out, if you fall, who will be my bed escort in the middle of the night? Just use a plastic wrap around it and I'll manage."

Yes, can't believe he forgot one can wrap clingfilm around it. No need for splits.

Xia Qingshu nodded, surprisingly feeling a hint of pity growing within his heart, "Brother Zhiyu, you wash inside, I'll stand outside, if anything happens, you call out to me."

Chen Zhiyu looked at him casually for a moment.

Guarding his bath ...... The kid is actually so crazy for him.

Chen Zhiyu glanced at his trousers and gave a smile of understanding.

Xia Qing Shu looked at the other party's expression and just felt odd. But he had met too many odd things today, even doing things like blowing wounds, such an expression was really nothing and he didn't take it to heart.

He added a word of reassurance, "Don't worry, I'll come in with an eye mask on."

Chen Zhiyu took the blindfold in his hand, it was a disposable blindfold given by the hospital, the fabric was a bit thin and not really flattering to wear, more or less he could see some of the features of his legs through the openings underneath.

Xia Qing Shu's eyes were shining brightly, so rich with emotion that they were almost overflowing.

Just looking at an ankle, how can you be so happy?

The kid must have had a hard time sleeping all night.

Chen Zhiyu didn't poke holes in the other's little heart. He only had a cracked bone, he wasn't lame, and he still had the ability to take care of himself in a bath. He sat back in his wheelchair and graciously lifted his leg, which was in a cast, "Let's wrap it with plastic wrap."

Xia Qing Shu helped him wrap his leg and yawned several times.

"Go lie down on the guest bed for a while, don't stand guard, I'll call you if something happens."

"Mm-hmm." Xia Qingshu nodded in agreement.

Chen Zhiyu was in this luxurious ward which was a suite with two bedrooms, aside from the main bedroom where the patient slept, there was a guest bedroom next to it which was a bit smaller. The guest bedroom was fully equipped with things and had a bathroom.

He went to the guest bedroom to put his things away and wanted to lie down on the bed to rest, but as soon as his head hit the pillow, he felt drowsy. He wanted to sleep.

No, Chen Zhiyu was still in the shower, so he couldn't sleep yet.

So sleepy, how closing the eyes only for about ten minutes, no no, for five minutes is enough ............

Chen Zhiyu finished his shower and opened the door, which was empty. The person who promised ten minutes ago that he would always be at the door, disappeared. In the guest room, there was a subtle purring sound.

Xia Qing Shu was lying on the bed in the guest room, sleeping soundly.

Chen Zhiyu: "........."



Chapter 29


This child is too jealous!

Xia Qingshu slept until almost noon, the guest room door was closed and there was a lot of noise outside, as if there were many people.

He woke up in a daze, forgetting something. Shaking his head, he suddenly remembered that last night Chen Zhiyu was going to take a bath. He was afraid that his benefactor would fall, so he said he would guard the door, but he fell asleep when he lay down on the bed.

He got up from the bed in a panic, wondering if Chen Zhiyh had fallen last night. It was dawn now, so even if he had fallen, he would have gotten up on his own. There were so many people outside, so it shouldn't be too hard for Chem.

After analyzing the situation calmly, Xia Qing Shu did not panic. He calmly took a shower and changed his clothes, and then opened the door to go out. The ward was full of flowers and fruits, and relatives were coming and going to visit him.

Chen Zhiyu had already eaten breakfast and when he saw Xia Qing Shu, he looked very calm and told him to go and have breakfast by himself.

When Xia Qing Shu had finished his breakfast, Xia Lao Er called to say that he had made bone broth and had it delivered.

As the ward was already crowded, Xia Qing Shu asked Xia Lao Er to wait in front of the hospital and he went to pick it up himself. When he got the soup, the lift broke down. Chen Zhiyu's ward was on the 11th floor and the floor was not very high, so Xia Qingshu simply climbed the stairs.

He pushed open the door of the fire escape, and just as he stepped in, he was pushed by someone behind him.

Xia Qing Shu turned his head to look and found that it was He Chen.

He Chen did not look well, a handsome face green with white, white with black, his expression resentful like a deep boudoir husband, staring at him with a deadly stare.

Xia Qing Shu was taken aback.

The "substitute" had come to his door!

He crossed his arms in front of his chest and fired a "death ray" with his mind.

This was useless against He Chen, who cornered him, his face was three parts gangster, three parts unrestrained and four parts resentment, staring at Xia Qing Shu with a deadly stare.

Xia Qingshu clutched the soup to his chest and asked in a small, whispered voice, "What are you doing?"

He Chen took a step back, giving the other party a little breathing space, and said leisurely, "Is he that good?"

Although his tone was arrogant, there was a tinge of resignation plus a hint of resentment in it, which Xia Qing Shu caught keenly.

Xia Qinshu:"....."

After tilting his head and thinking about it, it should be the stand-in thing.

Didn't he like Xia Yubin, even if he used him as a substitute, he should not have cared. What was he trying to do now with a resentful face?

Xia Qing Shu shook his head, indicating that he really couldn't understand the other party's words.

He Chen snorted, "How is Brother Zhiyu better than me?"

This question was much better answered, and after thinking it over, Xia Qingshu realised that he didn't know the two men very well, but if he had to look deeper, he did know Chen Zhiyu a little better. After all, in the book, Chen Zhiyu had a bigger role.

Xia Qingshu clutched his thermos bucket and replied seriously, "Since you want to know, then I'll begrudgingly say a few words. He is more generous than you, will not be ridicule me for no reason, he is virtuous, and cherishes his body very much."

He Chen interrupted loudly, "I'm still a bachelor too, a virgin!"

Xia Qing Shu: "...."

Big brother, what about being a man, no need to be so competitive. You are a virgin. You can be a virgin. Man, do you need to be so loud?

Xia Qing Shu turned his ears with his index finger and continued, "He took the initiative to invite me to dinner and saved my life."

He Chen interrupted again, "I've also invited you to dinner."

When school first started, He Chen invited the entire dormitory to dinner, and on the night after dinner, Xia Qing Shu climbed into He Chen's bed.


Seeming to remember something, He Chen was a little excited, "You just want me to invite you to dinner? What do you want to eat, I'll take you there."

Xia Qingshu: "......"

Did he look that much like the king of dry rice?

"Classmate He Chen, are you unable to live independently without my love?!"

He Chen stood aside, his eyes darkening, not saying anything.

"Classmate He Chen, I suggest you become a star, then more people will like you and there will be no shortage of me."

Xia Qing Shu complained in a thin voice, "Never seen such a vain person!"

After saying that, he stole a glance at He Chen, a hint of disgust mixed in his soft eyes.

He Chen: "...."

He Chen exasperatedly explained, "Our family and the Xia family have a marriage contract, I just learned that you are the Xia family's child, that marriage contract could possibly be me and you, Chen Zhiyu is my brother, in the future is your eldest uncle......"

"You are unclear about your eldest brother like this, so what are you talking about!!!"

He didn't know if he was irritated by those words Xia Qing Shu just said, or because he confirmed the relationship between Xia Qing Shu and Chen Zhi Yu, He Chen was very angry. When He Chen looked at Xia Qing Shu's smug little face, his expression changed and he reached out and pushed him towards the stairwell.

Xia Qingshu stumbled a few steps and fell on the stairs. He Chen bent down high and looked down at him, one leg stomping beside him and surrounding him.

"You and Brother Zhiyu, what exactly is your relationship?!"

His eyes glowed with a cold light, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up not as if he was smiling, but more ruffian. He Chen looked at Xia Qing Shu mockingly and calmly, "You just like to seduce people so much, don't you?"

There was no one in the fire escape, and the slightest sound in the empty walkway was infinitely amplified. Especially the word "seduce" was pronounced with a mocking tone and was particularly mean.

Xia Qing Shu was a bit aggrieved, he had not seduced anyone, he was also forced to transmigrate. But he knew that the original body's persona was like this. He wanted to retort, but because of his lack of strength, he could only squeeze out a few faint words from his bright red thin lips, "...... I didn't ......"

"I was seduced by you, shouldn't you be happy?!"

He Chen leaned his body harshly, aggressively forcing Xia Qing Shu to lift his head and look directly at him.

"Speak up, weren't you just being eloquent? What's wrong now? Are you dumb?"

Xia Qingshu pursed his lips, his brow furrowed, and didn't say a word. His little face was a little white, his mouth puckered and his cheeks puffed up, angry and anxious.

One pair of pretty eyes was wide open, like a furious kitten.

Pleased by this expression, He Chen grunted twice and straightened up his body. He grabbed Xia Qing Shu's wrist and tried to pull him up.

"You can't get too close to Brother Zhiyu, you know? That's your eldest brother."

Xia Qingshu was a little wound up as he mumbled, "You let go of me, it hurts..."

The cat hummed as if it hadn't eaten.

One moment he said he seduced someone, and the next moment it was some kind of elder brother and younger uncle issue, it was too much of a waste of ethics.

Xia Qing Shu was angry. When he was angry, his face would turn red and pink. His teeth clenched his lower lip, and his chest rose and fell as he gasped for air.

What a person, who has the right to talk about him like that!

Xia Qing Shu opened his mouth to scold him, but as soon as he opened his mouth, his wrist was caught tightly by He Chen. He Chen unconsciously brought him into his arms, wanting to hear clearly, what he was trying to say.

Xia Qing Shu put his hand against his chest and shoved the thermos bucket into his arms. Because of the "substitute" incident, Xia Qing Shu was a bit guilty, and because He Chen had been talking nonsense as soon as they met, he didn't know what he was trying to say. But seeing how angry he was, he must have been very disgusted with himself. He had just heard about the Xia family and the He family having a marriage contract, and knew nothing about it at all. He took two steps back, lifted his head to look at He Chen, and seriously explained.

"I don't know about that marriage contract, and I have no intention of acknowledging my relatives, so put a million hearts into it, I will definitely not interfere with you and Xia Yubin from it."

After hearing Xia Qing Shu's words, He Chen stood motionless. It took him a long time to realize, "So this is what you mind .....you don't worry, I'll get right on it."

After saying that, he ran away in a hurry.

Xia Qingshu looked at his back and thought to himself: I'm afraid this person has some serious illness that cannot be cured!

He came in a hurry and left in a hurry.

After He Chen left, Xia Qing Shu continued to climb the stairs, and after climbing two floors, he was so tired that he was gasping for breath.

What happened? After being sick, even his strength was not good enough.

Xia Qing Shu sat down on the stairs to rest and turned on his mobile phone. As soon as it was switched on, he received a message. The message was from the doctor, the test results were out, he didn't have cancer, the area was healthy, the doctor asked him to go and take a blood test and an ultrasound when he was free.

If he didn't have cancer, then he didn't need to have it removed! If you don't die from a disaster, you will have good luck later. The ancestors didn't deceive.

Xia Qing Shu was happy, he even gained energy and continued to climb the stairs with the thermos bucket in his arms. When he was exercising, his mind was most active, and as he climbed the stairs, he pondered that in the original book, He Chen, because he and Xia Yubin were alumni, he had first access to the 'attack'.

What time is it now, He Chen is actually still a virgin. Man, and he didn't look like he was lying with that look. After his fate as a canon fodder character changed, the main plot seemed to have deviated as well.

Before climbing even two floors, Xia Qing Shu was once again so tired that he was gasping for breath. His stamina was really poor lately, he had to make time to exercise.

By the time he climbed up to the twelfth floor, the bone soup would be cold.

He was climbing to the mezzanine level of the two floors when he suddenly heard someone talking.

"Mum, I'm not going, my son is three years old and people can look at him." A petulant girl snapped.

"Che, don't you know, some people just like those who have had babies, otherwise he wouldn't refuse so many pretty young girls? Have some confidence in yourself!"

Xia Qing Shu stopped, ready to return along the road, not wanting to interrupt a mother who was pushing her daughter to get ahead.

"Come here and I'll give you a whisper." The older woman lowered her voice, "I've heard that Chen Zhiyu has a problem, he is impotent."

Xia Qing Shu: ?

It's dog's blood!

"Is this something he, a poor passer-by, can listen to?"Xia Qing Shu thought with deep doubt.

To be honest, Zhiyu brother is tall and big, broad shoulders and back, quite sturdy, he is actually impotent?! Is this true?

"He can't give me babies and you still want me to marry?!" The woman sneered, "He looks so tall, but is actually a silver wax bullet."

"Fool, it is good if he is impotent, you bring your son, just in time to inherit the family business. When you have money, what kind of man can't you get?!" The woman's mother laughed, "You will hold your good grandson in a while. Now, come to your cousin and uncle to perform a few talents. Maybe they won't like you, but will lije our good grandson, and directly adopt it. "

The woman was a little hesitant, "Mom, is this possible?"

"Why not, can't you see, today your second grandfather brought five grandchildren alone, good grandson, behave better later and grandma will buy you toys."

"......"

"If you can't, I'll bring your sister with me."

"My sister is only sixteen."

"What's wrong with sixteen, sixteen is fresh and young!"

Xia Qing Shu: "......"

These two mothers and daughters were crazy for money.

Xia Qingshu knew about Chen Zhiyu's family history, a single heir from nine generations and a huge inheritance in his family. Earlier, Chen's mother talked to him because she wanted him to stay away from Chen Zhiyu and not delay Chen Zhiyu from having a son.

In the original book, Chen Zhiyu likes the same sex and was willing to make an enemy of the whole world for Xia Yubin, the Chen family is destined to be extinct. Now that the plot has long deviated, and last night Chen Zhiyu flat out said he didn't know Xia Yubin well, and even He Chen is still a virgin, he wondered if he can try to break Chen Zhiyu straight?

Chen Zhiyu is his saviour, and he doesn't want to see his benefactor's family go extinct. After all, one has to try to find out if one he can actually impregnate.

Xia Qing Shu carried the thermos bucket and quickly returned to the ward. When he raised his eyes, he saw a mother and daughter standing next to Chen's mother, who had a little boy in front of her, singing. After singing, the woman pushed her son forward, "Good boy, go and give your mother-in-law a kiss."

Chen's mother picked up the little boy and walked him around in front of Chen Zhiyu's hospital bed, as if unintentionally, "Zhiyu, do you see if mum is holding the baby correctly?"

The words implied that your mother wanted to hold her grandson. Chen Zhiyu didn't even lift an eyelid and calmly replied, "Mom, I'm at work."

Such scenes of child-raising were a daily occurrence.

Chen's mother also did not feel left out, and left holding the little boy. She put down the "toolman" little boy, and next to him were five other little boys waiting to perform their talents. If one guessed correctly, these are the grandchildren of the second grandfather the woman spoke of earlier.

In the eyes of these people, it was as if the Chen family had become extinct. They did not hide their desire for money, dissing each other and competing to perform, while Chen's mother looked on in amusement. Xia Qing Shu walked over and whispered, "Brother Zhiyu, did they make any noise to you? Do you need me to get rid of them?"

Chen Zhiyu typed a line into his notebook and lifted his head up to look at him. It didn't bother him that these people were pleasing the fuck out of him so that his mother wouldn't come and bother him.

Seeing that the other man didn't say anything, Xia Qingshu, fearing that his benefactor had suffered, came closer and said, "Brother Zhiyu, just now I heard that woman say that she wanted to bring her son and marry you."

Chen Zhiyu finally responded, trailing off in a lazy tone, "Oh?"

Xia Qing Shu explained in a whisper, "Really, I just climbed the stairs and overheard it."

Chen Zhiyu turned off his computer and leaned against the back of the bed, quietly surveying Xia Qingshu, "What do you want to do?"

He knew exactly what these people had in mind. These so-called relatives, in his eyes, were like leprosy, they wouldn't cause him any substantial harm, two words would send them off, they couldn't even make the slightest storm. It was a bit disgusting, but he didn't care too much when when they pestered his mother.

"I'm afraid you'd be tricked by them, if it's inconvenient for you, I can help you get rid of them." Xia Qing Shu frowned, genuinely worried about his benefactor.

Xia Qing Shu thought that Chen Zhiyu might have been so used to seeing these profit-oriented people that he was resistant to marriage and having children, and suddenly meeting the 'pure' white lotus Xia Yubin, he directly fell into the mud. He had to guard his benefactor and chase away those who had no good intentions, so that he would not be misled into the mire.

Chen Zhiyu nodded, "Go ahead."

While Xia Qingshu and Chen Zhiyu were talking, Chen's mother had been watching with a little distraction, even though she was teasing the young child, she kept watching Xia Qingshu run up and down the stairs. And although her own son was working, the corner of his eyes kept falling on Xia Qingshu.

If it wasn't for his physical condition, her son was a bull who could work for 24 hours straight without a break, and such things as distractions at work, she once thought, would never happen to her son. Now her good son had taken the initiative to shut down his computer and chat with Xia Qingshu.

Chen's mother covered her chest, feeling that the little boy singing and dancing and doing cartwheels next to her didn't even smell good anymore.

Her Zhiyu, why can't he find someone who can have a baby?

Chen's mother had just met Xia Qingshu and thought that this boy was not easy, hooking up with her good eldest son while using her great nephew as a stand-in, one cannot start a confrontation head-on with such a person. Now watching Xia Qingshu and Zhiyu chatting passionately and not daring to take offense, Mama Chen only felt her chest throbbing and very uncomfortable.

Not saying anything, Mama Chen left without a word of greeting.

As soon as Chen's mother left, the flatterers knew that they would not be able to get a good deal from Chen Zhiyu, so they also left.

The ward suddenly fell silent.

Xia Qing Shu brought out the soup that Xia Lao Er had made, served a bowl of it and put it in front of Chen Zhi Yu, "Brother Zhi Yu, you should drink some bone soup, it's good for calcium."

Chen Zhiyu said thank you, "You put it away, I'll drink it when it's cold."

Xia Qing Shu opened his phone, dug out his moments, found a selfie of Xia Yubin, put it in front of Chen Zhi Yu, and tentatively said, "Brother Zhi Yu, our classmates all think he is good looking, he is also the school grass, I think he is very average looking, what do you think?"

Xia Yubin was so tactful that he had to give his benefactor a heads up.

Chen Zhiyu glanced at the phone. Wasn't this Xia Yubin?

He glanced at Xia Qingshu again, who had a sullen little face, but looked like he was righteous. In fact, what was going through his mind was simply self-evident. The child had mentioned Xia Yubin in front of him three times, what else could it be if not jealousy?

Chen Zhiyu pretended not to see through the other party's little thoughts and casually said, "It's not bad."

Not bad?

Xia Qing Shu was a little nervous, "Brother Zhi Yu, look more carefully. Look, his nose is collapsed and his eyes are too wide apart, like a big-headed fly. Brother Zhiyu, it's not me who's gossiping, I heard he has several boyfriends."

He was anxious, the little jealous man was anxious.

Chen Zhiyu returned slowly, "Oh, you bring the phone over a bit. On second look, he does seem a bit ordinary."

Chen Zhiyu pretended to look at his phone, but in reality, he was always watching Xia Qing Shu's expression. Having cried last night, Xia Qingshu's eyes were still a little red at the corners, and the teary mole at the end of his eyes seemed to be lying in a piece of beautiful pink jade, brightly coloured. His eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and the eyes were full of longing, as if he could not help but shed tears if he complimented Xia Yubin one more time. For a moment, Chen Zhiyu wanted to see him in tears again. The child's anxious and angry look was also strangely appealing. His cheeks were red with anxiety.

Tsk, he was nineteen years old and still acted like he hadn't grown up.

"What are you mentioning him for?" Chen Zhiyu gave him a knock on the head.

Xia Qingshu had a lot of hair, and his head felt fluffy. Chen Zhiyu dropped his hand and twiddled his fingers.

"Ah ......" Xia Qingshu didn't expect the other party to ask this and replied haphazardly, "I heard ...... You seem to like him ......"

Because of the baseless fabrication, Xia Qing Shu was a little lacking in confidence, and the last few words were said with a breathless voice, the volume as thin as a gnat.

In Chen Zhiyu's ears, it sounded like a kitten humming, more like..acting like a spoiled child.

Chen Zhiyu thought, "This boy is so jealousy...... quite cute."

Seeing that the other party didn't answer for half a day, Xia Qing Shu delicately offered a plan, "Brother Zhiyu, you mustn't like him."

Chen Zhiyu got addicted to teasing people and laughed, "Why can't I like him?"

Xia Qing Shu earnestly explained to her benefactor, "He is the King of the Sea, the King of the Sea you know, the kind that likes several people at the same time, he likes you, but he likes others too, you will never get his full heart."

According to the plot, you will fight with the other seven men for the sole domination of Xia Yubin, and your head will break. You stay away from Xia Yubin to keep safe.

Chen Zhiyu looked at the other party's stubborrn and serious expression, hooked up his lips, his eyes played back and forth on his face, and turned off his phone, "I don't like this type."

Xia Qingshu let out a sigh of relief.

"Brother Zhiyu, what kind do you like then?" Xia Qing Shu felt that if he didn't like him now, there was no guarantee that he wouldn't like Yubin later.

If he had someone he liked, he wouldn't be looking at Xia Yubin, right?

Chen Zhiyu carelessly glanced at Xia Qing Shu, his eyes flashed with a fine shimmer, and he laughed, "I like a white skinned, dumb-headed goose, who doesn't hide his emotions, his happiness and anger on his face – a little fool."

The words "little fool" were deliberately alliterated, with some unspoken reference.

"Little fool?" Xia Qingshu nodded repeatedly and wrote down his benefactor's preference, "I'll keep an eye for you."

Xia Qingshu was inwardly shocked, it turned out that the Eunuch liked the less intelligent ones. No wonder he didn't like any of the ones introduced by Chen's mother, they were all too smart. Xia Qing Shu remembered that his father had a niece who was white and looked introverted and simple, and she fitted the bill.

Let her come over this afternoon and he sees if the benefactor will like her.



Chapter 30

Chen Zhiyu's bone fracture was not serious, but he was a career-minded man, so he asked Secretary Li to push him to a meeting at the company in afternoon. Xia Qing Shu didn't go home yesterday, and as there was nothing to do at the office now, he simply went home.

He had just walked downstairs to the community when he saw Xia Lao Er smoking a cigarette in the garden.

"Dad, what are you doing?"

There were many mosquitoes in the garden, and Xia Lao Er had been bitten on the head and had many scratches on his face.

"Miao, you're back." When Xia Lao Er saw Xia Qing Shu, he looked like a saviour and grabbed him.

"Dad, what happened, did you win the big prize?"

"No, it's that who... Xia Yubin is here ...your eldest uncle and the others are here too..." Xia Lao Er stammered a little as he put out his cigarette. Xia Lao Er was originally a bit introverted, facing the eloquent Xia Yubin, he do not know how to deal with him, he could not stay, but simply hid out.

"He's your own son, what are you afraid of?" Xia Qing Shu pulled Xia Er into the lift, "Come on, show your father's strength."

The two of them walked into the lift and Xia Lao Er was a bit embarrassed, "Miao, didn't your grandparents leave you a piece of land before?"

Xia Qing Shu frowned, "Xia Yubin wants it?"

"No, he didn't say he wanted it either ......" Xia Laodi didn't know what to say, and that was why he was hiding out. The land was originally owned by his father-in-law and mother-in-law, when there was no Qingqiu, his wife was the only daughter, and his father-in-law passed the land to Xia Qingshu's name before he died.

The land was supposedly given to his grandson by his father-in-law, but now it has been discovered that the wrong person was hugged and Xia Yubin is the biological one, so if Xia Yubin insists on asking for the land, it seems to make sense.

Xia Yubin seemed generous, and he didn't say he wanted the land. Instead, it was old man Xia and his elder brother who kept bringing up the land and asking Xia Qing Shu to give it up.

The land was in the suburbs, rented out to someone who opened a farmhouse, and with the recent Guojia policy, the suburbs were zoned to a new economic zone, and it was heard that it would be worth twice as much, old value.

"It's best if he didn't ask for it." Xia Qingshu pressed the lift button and laughed, "I wouldn't have given it if he had wanted it."

When he opened the door, he was greeted by the smell of smoke. Old man Xia was sitting on the sofa with his legs apart, holding a cigarette in one hand and tea in the other, putting on a kingly air. The elder uncle and aunt sat around the old man eating melon seeds, Xia Sang and second cousin were eating Xia Qingqiu's lollipop, and Li Xiaodong was asked to pour water.

Xia Yubin was saying to everyone with smiling eyes, "The law says that nurturing grace is greater than birth grace, grandpa, you raised dad, it's right for dad to do his filial duty to you."

Seeing Xia Lao Er return, Xia Yubin added, "Dad, do you think I'm right?"

Xia Lao Er and his wife were steamed buns, they had been morally kidnapped by old man Xia in the early years, and the two of them had saved their money to "honor" old man Xia, Xia Qing Shu could not easily set things right, and Xia Yubin had brought back these insatiable vampires.

"Huh? I guess so. I don't know about the law or anything." Xia Lao Er finished and quietly pulled down the hem of Xia Qing Shu's shirt.

"Older brother, of course what Yu Bin said is right, he's a senior law student at the University of R." Eldest Uncle Xia spat out a mouthful of melon seed skin and sighed, "After listening to Yu Bin's explanation, I realized that we, in the past, were superficial."

The eldest aunt continued, "If it weren't for Yubin, we wouldn't have understood that the kindness we received from our parents was greater than the kindness we received from them.

As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugal to extravagant and hard to go from extravagant to frugal. After a few days of living a life of slack, Xia Lao Er was no longer willing to go back to the old days when he was oppressed by old man Xia's family. His mouth was dumb and he didn't know what to say, pushing Xia Qing Shu out, "Our miao cub is also big."

Old man Xia waved his hand impatiently, "Qing Shu is different."

When Xia Qing Shu was studying at the University of R, old man Xia was not happy with it. The tuition fee was hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, so Xia Lao Er was afraid that his heart was not broken with pig's blood. To cultivate Xia Qingshu, it is better to cultivate the dog of their village. The dog can eat meat when it grows up. Xia Qingshu is a bottomless pit.

Xia Lao Er asked, "What's the difference? Aren't they all the same classes."


"Qing Shu is paying a high price to get in, Yu Bin took the exam to get in, not paying tuition, with a scholarship." Old man Xia nodded at Xia Yubin, "Yu Bin has real talent, he is going to make a lot of money in the future."

Xia Yubin said modestly, "Grandpa, you're flattering me."

Xia's eldest uncle and aunt agreed, "Look, the words of a top student are different, very elegant."

Xia Lao Er muttered, "Miao cub is not bad either."

"He ah ......" Old man Xia wanted to say that Xia Qing Shu was afraid that he wouldn't be able to earn back his tuition fees after toiling for the rest of his life, but when he thought of the fifty million dollars that Xia Qing Shu had just got, plus his status as the child of a wealthy family, he swallowed the words in his mouth again.

When he first heard about it from his relatives, he couldn't believe it, but then he saw Xia's family replacing their house and car, and found the man who had gone to help him move the money, and learnt that it was all true. It took them a morning to finish depositing several large carts of cash. Xia Lao Er, the loser, just went quietly and didn't get a single yuan for him. Lao Er had changed for the worse, too.

If it were in the past, with so much money, he would have asked Xia Lao Er to take out at least half of it to pay respect to his old man. Later, knowing that Xia Lao Er was not related to him by blood, the oldest son encouraged him several times, but he was too embarrassed to come.

A few days ago, he ran into Xia Yubin, who enthusiastically called him grandfather, and told him that his adoptive kindness was greater than his biological kindness, and that according to the law, Xia Lao Er had to support him, which gave him the courage to come to the door again.

Old man Xia's mouth turned, "Qing Shu is also good, I heard that he also earned money, and earned a lot."

After saying this, the eldest uncle and aunt's first cousin and second cousin all looked at Xia Qing Shu in unison. The greed in their eyes was so obvious that Xia Lao Er was a bit anxious and said, "That is the money to pay for Miao's medical treatment!"

"For what?" The elder aunt laughed, "Qing Shu is so healthy and fit, he doesn't look like he's sick, right, Qing Shu, tell your aunt how you made so much money at once?"

Second cousin followed suit and asked, "Qing Shu, we're all family, don't hide anything."

Xia Qingshu blinked and walked straight to the sofa and sat down, his chin nudging the tea, "I'm a bit thirsty."

Eldest Aunt kicked Second Cousin, who very reluctantly poured a cup of tea for Xia Qing Shu. Xia Qing Shu took a look at the tea leaves, which were still the same as Xia Lao Er's packet of "Bi Luo Da Hong Chun", and hurriedly instructed, "No tea, just plain water."

Second cousin finished pouring the water and brought the cup to Xia Qing Shu, muttering, "It's as if you've become a guest and we're the hosts."

Xia Qing Shu took the cup and laughed, "Second cousin, so you know, when I first entered, I almost thought I had gone to the wrong door."

The eldest aunt's face snapped up, and the eldest Xia uncle was as thick-skinned as if nothing had happened. The old man didn't understand the mockery in Xia Qing Shu's language because of his low education level and his deafness, and he was still asking after him, "You've drunk all the water, tell me."

Xia Qing Shu could earn 50 million, his two eldest grandsons were much smarter than Xia Qing Shu, wouldn't they be a whole 100 million each!

Xia Qing Shu took a sip of water and laughed, "It's very simple, the test is one of boldness."

The eldest cousin had recently worked as a stock boy and was scolded by his supervisor for being lazy and had his bonus deducted. After suffering a severe beating from society, he spent his days fantasising about getting rich overnight and dreaming about picking up money like Xia Qing Shu. He took out the book and pen he carried with him, "Speak slowly, I'll write it down."

Xia Qing Shu put down his glass of water and said in a staged tone, "When you see a rich person, you have to approach with patience, you can't be too hasty, you can't show lust right away. It is best to lower their guard without realising it."

The elder cousin wrote down the word "patience" and asked, "And then what?"

Xia Yubin sat aside and quietly turned on the recording on his phone. He had underestimated Xia Qingshu before, thinking he was stupid and dumb, but he had never thought that he had such a mind, perhaps he had also relied on such a tactic to get close to Chen Zhiyu. Chen Zhiyu hated people who approached him with petty intentions.

His previous approach was too deliberate and Chen Zhiyu was a bit prejudiced against him, he didn't dare to make a rash move recently and was still looking for an opportunity. If Chen Zhiyu had heard this recording today, he would have change his mind about Xia Qingshu.

Xia Yubin smiled and leaned a little closer to Xia Qingshu.

"Next, it's the most crucial." Xia Qing Shu's face suddenly became serious.

Eldest cousin and second cousin, Eldest uncle and Eldest aunt Xia Lao Er: "Speak up!"

Under everyone's expectation, Xia Qing Shu narrated, "The most and most important thing is, to see if your health is good?"

First cousin Xia Sang: "I am in good health."

Second cousin Xia Ju: "My health is also good."

Old man Xia smiled: His second grandson's most distinguished feature was his good health, that body, at a glance, was the material to earn a hundred million dollars.

Xia Qing Shu laughed, "Patience and good health, wait until they fight in a group, you see the opportunity and stick your head through."

Xia Sang, Xia Ju: "......"

"Pop!" Xia Qing Shu slapped his hands together, "Take a slap, "Then you can go to the car show and shop for properties."

Xia Sang, Xia Ju: "Is this reliable?"

Xia Qing Shu: "The rich and the wealthy are powerful."

Xia Sang asks again, "What if you get shot to death?"

Xia Qing Shu nodded to the question, "That's why it's important to be in good health!"

Xia Sang, Xia Ju: "......"

Xia Yubin: "......"

Although the eldest aunt was greedy for money, her IQ was still above average, watching her two sons being fooled, she pulled her son aside, "Even if we are in good health, then we must have a life to spend, son, don't believe Qing Shu's words."

Xia Qingshu laughed, "Eldest Aunt is always the smartest."

"We want to get him a new car. For one thing, he's a manager, so it's not convenient for him to take the underground train. You are a descendant of the Xia family, you should also contribute to the support of grandpa, right?"

Xia Sang and old man Xia nodded beside them. This was also the main purpose of their visit – to ask for money.

If they lent money to Uncle Xia's family, it would be like beating a dog with a meat bag, there would be no return. The first uncle Xia used to borrow money every now and then, so when it comes to borrowing money, it's a matter of familiarity, "We thought that we could get a million or eight hundred thousand.... from you."

The eldest aunt of the family did not say to pay back, the "borrowed money" was supposed to be a hand out.

"Brother Xia Sang is now a manager! You've got the power!" After praising him, Xia Qingshu asked, "Auntie, isn't the car of Brother Sang changed every day? It's changed with a swipe of the phone."

Xia Sang's previous ride was a shared bike, he could change his bike anytime, today he rode a small blue bike and a small yellow bike, tomorrow he could change to a green orange bike, it was just a matter of one or two dollars, did he need to borrow money?

The eldest aunt laughed, "We want to change to a four-wheeled one."

"You can't come to me to borrow money," Xia Qingshu said, "If you want to borrow money, you can go to online loans."

He opened his mobile phone and searched for a random online loan advertisement, "Look, borrow money with credibility Sesame credit . The handling fees can be waived, how convenient, and you do not have to look at the face of the debtor." Xia Qing Shu genuinely wanted to help them out and sent the advertisement to Xia Sang in passing.

The eldest aunt's family lived on loans and was used to being rejected. She was ready to be rejected. She took off her face in advance and put it in her bag, and she was not ashamed to be ridiculed.

"The company's money has been used to invest. Recently, the company's turnover has been poor, so I'm afraid I'll have to deduct my credit if I'm two days late." The eldest aunt babbled, "I heard that reputation is still quite important, without the future to buy a house, one can not be loaned, can not take a plane, has a limit consumption and so on."

"Reputation...it is very important." Xia Qingshu whispered, "But does your family have it? If I want to get back the money I loan you, there is no place to deduct it, so giving you money is equivalent to giving it for nothing."

Eldest Aunt: "......"

Eldest Auntie: I want to KILL

Xia Lao Er saw that his own Miao cub spoke slowly and in a low voice, but did not fall behind, and pulled Li Xiao to hide in the kitchen to cook. These people came in time for dinner and refused to leave until they had eaten and drunk enough.

Old man Xia was sulking, "Lao Er, what's wrong with Qing Shu? It seems like a different person?"

"Grandpa, it's useless to ask my dad, he doesn't know." Xia Qingshu laughed mischievously, "But the old lady from the neighbourhood committee downstairs does know, one word can wake up a dreamer, ah. Master, guess what the old lady said?"

Old man Xia: "What did she say?"

"She said that our family had just sent away the God of Plague, and that if the God of Plague was sent away, our whole family would be cured." Xia Qing Shu had a face of awe-inspiring righteousness and deep thoughtful rigor: "At that time, it had just been found out that our whole family was not related to you by blood, so I thought, "Isn't this a coincidence?"

Old man Xia: "......"

The old man could not please Xia Qinshu here, so he shut his mouth and did not speak.

Xia Yubin was smiling at the side, "Grandpa, I think Eldest Aunt is wrong, supporting Grandpa is Dad's responsibility, it has nothing to do with Qing Shu, if you really want to look deeper, Xia Qing Shu is not a member of our family either, how can we let Qing Shu pay for the car?"

Xia Qingshu gave him a look, it was raining red from the sky, Xia Yubin was speaking for him?

As expected, as soon as Xia Yubin finished speaking, the eldest aunt pointed at Xia Qing Shu as if she had suddenly realized, "Aiya, you are not related to the second brother, Yubin is the biological child of the second brother and second sister, the land given to you by Uncle Li before, you are not qualified to inherit."

After such a big detour, it finally came back around.

"That's the Li family's land, it's none of your Xia family's business." Xia Qing Shu whispered, " Xia Yubin didn't even ask for it, so what's your hurry?"

Eldest Aunt shouted, "I'm just trying to make things right for Yu Bin!"

Before he arrived, Xia Yubin had told them that if the land was in his hands, he would sell it and the money would buy a house for the family, as well as pay filial respect to the old man, to his eldest uncle and eldest aunt, and renovate the Xia family ancestral hall so that the Xia family lineage could be better passed on.

This child, Yu Bin, speaks well and is of high quality, worthy of being brought up by a large family. Unlike the little fool Xia Qing Shu, who speaks without eyes, sometimes when she hears him speak, she wants to find someone to beat him to death and have him whipped.

Seeing Xia Qingshu's heart finally show, the eldest aunt's anger rose and she rushed to the kitchen to call Xia Lao Er and Li Xiao out.

Xia Lao Er, tethered to his apron, looked at Xia Qing Shu and then at Xia Yubin.

Xia Yubin was at a loss, he spread his hands to show his innocence and pointed at his elder aunt, telling Xia Lao er that it was not his intention, he was forced to do it. Xia Qing Shu sat on the sofa laughing and giggling, naive and silly, his little legs crossed and shaking, looking unaware of the value of that land.

Before Xia Yubin was reborn, that piece of land was zoned as a special economic zone and was in the city centre, and the auction price could reach hundreds of millions of dollars. In the previous life, the land was still auctioned off, but it was after the death of Xia Qing Shu, and most of the money from the auction was taken away by old man Xia.

Xia Yubin didn't want to take the idea of ​​this land at first. He was mainly afraid that after Xia Qingshu's death, Xia Lao Er would still be taken over by the old man Xia, and the land would be in his hands. He was helping Xia Lao Er and his family, who let them be his real parents. Besides, he was Li Xiaodong's biological son, and he was the one who should have inherited his grandparents' belongings. The twenty-five million was still owed to the Zhou family, Zhou Qian's hurdle is passed, but Zhou Chuan is not easy to fool around with, and with this piece of land, it can be delayed for a while longer.

Xia Yubin recently felt that things were not going well.

In his last life, He Chan had not contacted him for a long time, and today he suddenly called him and asked him to pay back the money. The last time he spilled coffee on Chen Zhiyu's clothes, the money he paid was borrowed from He Chen, who wasn't short of money, so he didn't know why he had to pay it back, and he had to do it urgently.

Chen Zhiyu, he couldn't even get close to.

There was some poor ghost who ate soft rice. After he was reborn, he avoided seeing him, so there was only one left... that was his trump card, and he didn't plan to approach him for the time being

But he is really a bit short of money.

When old man Xia saw Xia Lao Er come out, he also spoke up, "Lao Er ah, if you still have a bit of conscience, you can't wrong Yu Bin."

Xia Lao Er was so choked up by these words that he couldn't speak. He was slow to react and didn't know how to respond, standing in the middle of the living room with his hands and feet at a loss. In his heart, his miao cub was brought up by him personally and his affection ran deep, but Yu Bin was his own blood and had taken the initiative to come to him, and he had thought about treating him well. He also did not know that he had no conscience when he had done nothing.

Xia Yubin had an innocent face, if you look closely, you will find watery light in his eyes, he did not blame Xia Lao Er, instead he was very understanding, "Dad, I will not fight with Qing Shu ......"

The fact that he was such an understanding child, how can he not let people feel distressed.

Xia Lao Er put down his spatula, "That is the land given to the Miao cub by father-in-law and mother-in-law, I have no right to allocate it. Yu Bin, what do you want, dad will earn money to buy for you."

First Uncle Xia said, "Alas, this heart is so biased that I can't even see it."

Eldest Aunt: "Second Brother, as a parent, the most important thing is that a bowl of water should be even."

Xia Qingshu: "......"

All these years, old man Xia was most biased towards the first eldest son, Eldest Uncle Xia's family, so he wondered how the two of them had the face to say such things.

Xia Qing Shu was about to speak up when Xia Lao Er spoke up, "How am I being biased? It's not mine, it was given to Miao cub by his father-in-law and mother-in-law, I'm not qualified to take back what others have given to me to pass on."

Li Xiao daughter-in-law also spoke up, "I am not qualified to take back what my parents gave away either."

The eldest aunt added, "Older daughter-in-law, think about it, Uncle Li's land was given to his grandson, and his original intention was to give it to a grandson who was related by blood, and if there had been a Qingqiu at the time, Qingqiu would have had a share of it all. If they knew that their family's land had fallen into the hands of someone who was not related by blood, would they be able to rest easy under their nine springs?"

She used blood ties in every sentence, and before that she said that her birth grace was greater than her nurturing grace, and today it was clear that she would not let go until she achieved her goal.

Xia Qing Shu also found this issue tricky. If they were alive and not biased, every grandchild would have a share. Bloodline does play a big part in this kind of inter generational gift. Even if the land was to be given away, Xia Yubin would not be allowed to have it all to himself. Xia Qing Shu was prepared to divide the land into three parts, one for each person.

Xia Yubin also thought the same way, that he would at least get a third.

Li Xiaodui, who hadn't spoken for half a day, stood up, pinched her apron and whispered, "Actually, I was also adopted, these three children are not related to my parents, and I didn't get a share of their things in the end."

Although Li Xiaozhu's family was in the countryside, they were considered a large family. Her parents had left in a hurry, without a will, and the family's old house and fields were all divided among the clan relatives, and the clan elders said that she was a daughter, moreover adopted, and not qualified to inherit. She was so aggrieved at the time that she was not even left with her mother's most beloved bracelet.

If you have nothing to do, you can come to our Lijiazhuang and take out the feces at the entrance of the village, !!@¥¥#@¥@***@**¥¥*#¥##"

The rest pf the words were full off profanity. The eldest aunt was scolded, and simply could not find the opportunity to interject.
