Chapter 64

Edited by Bubbles

Le Han was surprised and hurriedly asked, “What the hell is going on? How did you get involved, ah!”

“I’m not involved,” Qi Xun didn’t take it seriously and responded slowly.

After the incident at the concert, Qi Xun had sent Le Han home the next day and returned to his apartment. In addition to calling his parents, he’d also called his friends.

The way he protected Le Han was simple.

As he lived close to T University, he had ample time to spend with Le Han. Furthermore, he already had plans to abduct Le Han to live with him as soon as possible. Like this, he could stay with him most of the time, and he could protect his boyfriend himself.

Simultaneously, he also asked someone to check the background of those students.

One was Xu Jingsen and the other was Yu Manman. Qi Xun couldn’t remember the names of the other three, but it was easy enough to investigate.

With their names, it was even easier to check their family backgrounds.

After getting the information, Qi Xun laughed.

Yao Lingyu was from an ordinary family, and the other four were all in business. They were good if placed in C City, but they weren’t even a fart in the whole country. The interests of the four families were more or less intertwined with local businessmen. This relationship went around and around until it finally arrived at Qi Xun’s head— Qi Xun himself had started a company with friends. However, he mostly gave money and didn’t intervene in the company affairs at ordinary times. In the past few years, the company had grown very strong.

Since they were related to Qi Xun’s company, Qi Xun would naturally not let it go. His friends were also quite cooperative. After all, they were only involved in some dispensable projects.

This matter mainly involved Yu Manman’s family.

Of course, Qi Xun didn’t care about what would happen to that crazy woman with this move alone. He just mentioned it to a friend when he’d noticed it.

However, he had too many friends, and several people were about his age. At first, he’d started a company only for exercise or fun, and unexpectedly ended up doing a good job. The group developed in different business areas and had a wide range of contacts. Qi Xun’s friends saw him — a person who wasn’t usually interested in business but only in art — suddenly move and one by one began to take action; it was like being injected with chicken blood.

Because they were really close friends, they all knew that Qi Xun was in a relationship with a man before the matter had been exposed online.

When they asked Qi Xun how he suddenly wanted to deal with Yu Manman’s family, Qi Xun didn’t hide his thoughts. He mentioned a few words to them, and what happened next was funny—

None of his friends could be underestimated, and the incident ended up becoming a little big.

Qi Xun didn’t pay much attention, but he later heard that it wasn’t just Yu Manman’s family that was affected, but all the families of the four kids had gotten involved.

In the short period of half a month, this matter had become an anecdote of the business circle in C City— perhaps it wasn’t just C City talking about it. After all, gossip had always been the easiest to spread.

The four families weren’t reduced to bankruptcy, this wasn’t a domineering president’s novel. It wasn’t anything like ‘Let the Wangs go bankrupt when the weather is cold! 1 Makes reference to the novel 我的烈火保镖 (My fire bodyguard). It’s a BL novel in jjwxc ‘ either, but Qi Xun imagined that the psychological changes of the four families might be as followed:

What? This project can’t be done anymore?

Wait, what happened to the original deal?

Huh? This one too?!!!

What about that one? What did you say?!

…

…Qi Xun had still been wondering whether to involve business matters for Le Han’s sake. After all, judging from the outcome of Yu Manman’s family, they had problems in business, and even the four ghosts didn’t have the mind to make trouble outside all day. While teaching them a lesson, they were consequently kept away from Le Han’s life. He didn’t expect his group of rogues to be so powerful; Qi Xun hadn’t formally planned to do all this, but his friends had already done everything he wanted to do.

One by one, they sent him a WeChat message to ask for praise, saying “How is it going”, “Did I do a good job” and “When will you bring your wife to see us”.

Even his dad had sent him a WeChat message, asking, “Nothing happened with your boyfriend recently, right?”

Qi Xun: “…”

Although the other didn’t say it clearly, Qi Xun felt that his dad might have helped as well upon receiving such a message.

But was he going to let the matter just slide?

Impossible.

How could setbacks in business be compared to the violence that Le Han had suffered in the past?

Qi Xun firmly believed that the wicked would always get their own retribution. Even in today’s society, God didn’t necessarily accept villains, and Qi Xun didn’t want God to accept them either.

At the same time, he also believed that human nature would never change.

The four guys were usually guarded by their parents. Of course, they also had a sense of cunning in their hearts. They knew who could and couldn’t be touched, and because of their arrogance, they probably hadn’t been punished yet.

But could there always be such a good thing in the world?

—At least if you got into trouble with Qi Xun, there would never be such a good thing again.

He had been waiting since that day. Without doubt, he knew that these people would continue to do their own thing until they once again committed a crime.

The actions of the man named Xu Jingsen and the crazy woman were completely expected by Qi Xun.

They probably didn’t cause trouble for a while because their family business wasn’t going well, but it seemed that they finally couldn’t help it tonight. They went out to party with their friends, rented a villa, drank, sang, and danced. More than a dozen boys and girls got together and soon went crazy.

Qi Xun could imagine what it’d be like when the friends of those people gathered together, and he could also guess what would happen.

On such an occasion, Xu Jingsen had joined several people to beat up a boy. Because they’d drunk alcohol, they lost control, and this time they’d beaten up the boy until critical condition.

Le Han’s face paled upon hearing this.

He’d been hurt quite seriously at the bar back then. So how grave was the state of this boy…

Qi Xun whispered, “The boy’s life was saved, but he may have to stay in the hospital for a long time.”

However, Qi Xun didn’t sympathize with the boy. According to the information he obtained, the incident was entirely like a dog biting a dog. The boy’s usual style wasn’t much different from Xu Jingsen’s, but his family background was a bit worse. The two probably didn’t know each other before. At the party, the boy had fought with Xu Jingsen for a girl with his usual style. Unexpectedly, his plastic brother knew Xu Jingsen’s background but didn’t tell him and hid away instead, but the people from Xu Jingsen’s side rushed forward.

Anyway, Qi Xun really had no idea what went on these people’s mind all day.

They happened to fall in the hands of his cousin who’d already been told about these beasts by Qi Xun. His cousin had frowned and looked disgusted.

Qi Xun’s initial idea was for those beasts to not commit crimes again – in fact, Qi Xun had hoped they wouldn’t act like this anymore – because once they did, they should no longer think about finding a way out. They coincidentally fell into the hands of his cousin, which saved him a lot of trouble.

Just now, his cousin had sent him a few WeChat messages while working in the police station to make things clear.

Le Han shrank into Qi Xun’s arms without saying a word.

Qi Xun patted Le Han and said, “In addition, Yu Manman and Yao Lingyu were on drugs. There were many drugs, and the people involved have suffered all this time.”

Le Han looked at Qi Xun in disbelief.

The two of them used drugs?

Qi Xun looked at Le Han’s expression and smiled. “You don’t believe it? Do you know how far rich second generations can play?”

The boy beaten by Xu Jingsen knew what was going on at the party, and because he was beaten up, he had resentment in his heart. After waking up, he immediately reported to the police who then went to the site; the people in the villa were having an orgy.

But Qi Xun didn’t say it. He sighed and stroked Le Han’s neck 一 there was no need for Le Han to know about these dirty things.

“In a word, the incident was somewhat big. From all the people in the villa, not everyone will face serious consequences. They can be fished out after talking to their parents. I don’t care about those people, but Xu Jingsen and Yu Manman,” Qi Xun said slowly, “I’ll never let their parents take them out.”

Qi Xun didn’t say anything about Yu Manman. Her situation was so bad that he didn’t need to take action at all. As for the seriously injured boy’s parents — they didn’t want to let this matter go as well. However, if no one intervened, it was uncertain if this matter could be settled in the end because of Xu Jingsen’s parents. But Qi Xun wouldn’t let this happen.

Nevertheless, even if things came down like this, Qi Xun wasn’t happy at all. He knew that Le Han wouldn’t be happy either. Just as he didn’t want those beasts to commit crimes again, both of them knew that as long as they continued, someone else would be hurt. It didn’t matter whether that person deserved it or not; it wasn’t something to be happy about. But anyway, everything had happened as he expected.

“As for the one named Yao Lingyu, his parents are ordinary people. He knelt with tears in his eyes in the police station just now.” Qi Xun frowned.

Not to mention Yao Lingyu, in the past, Yu Manman and Xu Jingsen had been acting recklessly under their parents’ protection, but that protection would no longer work.

Qi Xun didn’t know if Xu Jingsen didn’t realize there was something wrong until this moment, or if he had already thought of it due to the sudden problems with the family business . All this was related to Qi Xun. Anyway, until now — until his own interests were involved, he didn’t call Le Han. It was for his own benefit that he called. According to Qi Xun’s understanding, the parents of these people should only know that someone wanted to deal with them, but not who. These kids didn’t have the guts to say it.

And now, who gave Xu Jingsen, this beast, the courage to question Le Han?

What kind of confidence did such a person have to question the person he had committed violence against and ask whether the other party was retaliating against him?

It wasn’t revenge; it was something he deserved since long ago.

Le Han didn’t want Qi Xun to spend too much energy on those scum, and he didn’t do so, but the fact was that scum would always be scum. It was simply digging a hole and letting them jump in without having to push too hard. What Qi Xun did was remove all the branches and leaves that could have prevented them from falling into the pit and safely let them fall to the bottom of it.

Those people deserved it.

After listening, Le Han looked at Qi Xun and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Qi Xun teased him, “I’m making a contribution to society.”

Le Han’s eyes were still sore, but he let out a pfft when he heard Qi Xun’s words.

Recalling the things he had suffered in high school, Le Han took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

…Those people should have gone to jail long ago!

But he admitted that his abilities were limited. He could maintain his state of mind in such a high school environment. He could accomplish his academic goals smoothly by working hard. However, there were still many things beyond his ability.

Le Han wasn’t a greedy person, and he cherished his life. So when he got their apologies, he chose to put everything down. But he had to admit that he secretly fantasized.

Fantasized about the bad guys getting retribution.

He hoped that no one in this world would do bad things and still be arrogant.

But the world was obviously not so fair.

However—

Le Han opened his eyes and looked at the man beside him.

He knew that while Qi Xun said it was nothing, he must have spent a lot of effort behind his back and used many of his contacts. No matter what kind of mentality Qi Xun had when doing these things, in the end, the original instigator must’ve been him.

Le Han didn’t know what to say. His heart seemed about to overflow.

Right then and there, he clearly felt that this man loved him.

And how happy it was to be loved by Qi Xun.

What he couldn’t do was done for him by his boyfriend.

He admitted his weakness, and this man protected him with his strength.

Le Han’s eyes were still hot.

He stretched out his hands and held Qi Xun’s face.

Qi Xun hugged him and asked softly, “Han Han?”

Le Han caressed Qi Xun’s forehead and then the tip of his nose.

In the end, he said with a nasally voice, “I’ll become better.”

Qi Xun looked at him puzzledly.

Le Han solemnly promised, “I’ll become powerful too.”

People in a relationship should complement each other. Maybe Le Han couldn’t protect Qi Xun as Qi Xun protected him. But Le Han also hoped to do something for Qi Xun, so he had to grow up faster. Whether Qi Xun wanted it or not, he was willing to give him everything.

Le Han didn’t make it clear, but Qi Xun understood.

He smiled and whispered softly, “Okay, I’m waiting for you.”

Le Han sniffed, thought about it, and said solemnly, “I should study harder.”

Qi Xun: “…”

No, no, this wasn’t the ‘harder’ he wanted.

The corners of Qi Xun’s mouth twitched. He had a flash of inspiration and narrowed his eyes. “In fact, there’s another thing you can do for me now.”

Le Han was taken aback and quickly asked, “What, what?”

He looked at Qi Xun excitedly, his eyes full of eagerness to ‘give’.

Qi Xun pinched his chin and said with a smile, “Guess how many condoms I bought?”

Le Han: “…”

No, he didn’t want to guess.

The author has something to say:

Qi Xun: Baby, come, give it!!!!

Le Han: chirp.
