The nature of human beings was to forget the pain once the scar healed. Holding the project’s balance in hands, Pei Xian immediately raised his little tail. He was so happy that he couldn’t even find the north . He completely forgot that the project still had subsequent maintenance risks.
Because there were many kinds of small animals in the courtyard of Gu’s old house, it opened the door to the new world for him. His memory of going to the zoo in his last life still stayed at the time when he was embraced in the arms of his parents.
Yes, he decided to go to the biggest zoo in suburbs to make up for his previous bullshit life.
Gu Han went home to give his mother a live video of his kneeling punishment and Madame Gu said nothing superfluous as if the embarrassment had never happened.
Boss Gu had a befuddled face but he didn’t dare to ask. He always felt that his mother was holding on to his little tricks. After two days of him ran with his tail tucked in fright, there was still no news?
He paid a lot of money to bribe the bodyguards of the old house for fear that his mother would build an atomic bomb behind closed doors. As a result, the old madame was preparing to go up the mountain to worship the Buddha recently. Finally, his unsettled mind fell to the ground and he happily plunged into the grand land project.
One was busy making money and the other was busy spending money. At the same time, they went out early and returned home which led to the rhythm of co-tenancy.
When Gu Han went home to face the empty and desolate living room, he collapsed unwillingly. Since the little quail got the money, there were not even perfunctory kisses, touches or hugs. Later, he (PX) didn’t even bother to say hello. And where were the others now? Everyone was even gone?! More than 30 million yuan was exchanged into steel mule that was spent in vain and when played even heard an echo!
At that time when Gu Han was putting his hands on his hips as he asked towards the empty space, he saw a commotion at the gate. A group of tourists, wearing sportswear, sun hat and backpack, walked in formidable array into the gate of his house?
Seeing these people getting closer and closer, Gu Han rubbed his temples and suspected that he had hallucinations?
Bolin Road Villa’s area was a closed management; the paradise of the riches that many gossip reporters and meddlesome people wanted to take a glimpse of its real appearance. This place shouldn’t become a tourist attraction in broad daylight, right?
When this group of demons and ghosts continued to enter the living room, Gu Han’s mouth that turned to O-shape still had not closed, until the leading person Uncle Lin called out respectfully, “Young Master!”
“You, you, you guys???” Boss Gu’s chimney was smoking. His (maid) aunties, cooks, bodyguards and butler stood all over the room.
Pei Xian, whose face was red due to sun exposure after having fun the whole day, flashed out from behind, “Mr. Gu, we went to the zoo to fish tiger.”
“What? Fishing tiger??!” Gu Han’s chimney exploded on the spot!
Uncle Lin asked everyone to return back to their positions before he explained towards the young master with a question mark on his face, “Young Master Pei reserved the zoo and invited us all together to have fun. The zoo specially prepared a wild training of tiger hunting, which is called fishing tiger.”
“Oh…” Gu Han suddenly realized something and turned towards Pei Xian, but there was only a mass of air. The little quail, like a fleeing ginseng doll [1] , had long been gone.
He frowned and murmured, “Uncle Lin, this is not what I meant. You are all already old, but still following the little brat to make trouble.”
“No, Young Master, what you said was that we should play more with Young Master Pei and not let him sleep alone at home?” The old butler was confused.
“It’s not a matter of going out to play crazily all the time…. What about me? Who will accompany me?” The more Gu Han spoke, the lower his volume was and finally those two sentences were out of his mouth in grievance.
The old butler pretended to be naïve as he put his hands to his ears and asked loudly, “What do you say, Young Master? I didn’t hear you!”
“…..” Embarrassed, Gu Han turned to go upstairs. “I said I want to take a bath!”
In the evening, Gu Han was sitting upright and still on the sofa with a fluorescent lamp on top of his head. Three days, the whole three days! Little quail didn’t come to pay respect to him!
Zhen’s [2] country is going to die ah!
He pondered for a while before getting into the cloakroom and changing into bright blue lake colored home clothes. Facing the mirror, he styled his hair and looked left and right before he sprayed on cologne.
“ Zhen absolutely not going there for personal consideration, but Zhen are going for the country and the people!” Gu Han chattered a few words. He rubbed his hands and stood on tiptoes before sneakily groped around towards Pei Xian’s room.
“Xianxian…” He opened the door slowly.
The sleeping light was on in the room and the fuzzy light gray carpet was dyed with an ambiguous golden border. In the faint darkness, the cozy big bed was completely bereft with the sound of water coming from the bathroom.
Gu Han made his way noiselessly to the bed and sat down. He pressed the elastic mattress with both hands. Looking straight from here, he could see the washed and sweet-smelling little quail coming out after a while. Ah! King level vision!
He felt that he could even compose a poem!
Taking a hot bath after a day of fun, Pei Xian felt that he was now a single celled creature, whose nucleus was clamoring for the comfort of a warm big bed.
Thereupon, he didn’t blow dry his hair. He closed his eyes, dozing off as he fumbled to turn off the bathroom light before he staggered out of the bathroom.
Gu Han merely aware that it was dark in front of him before the bathroom door opened wide. Pei Xian had his head drooped without uttering a sound, his minute length hair stuck on his face was still dripping water and his hands were propped up straight, swaying as he walked towards Gu Han like a zombie.
“…” Boss Gu’s fawning smile dropped to the ground with a pang , as he stared at the scene in horror.
All of a sudden, the zombie’s footing staggered and with a big splits move, he fell right in front of Gu Han!
Pei Xian sobered up when his body was out of control and his two claws struggled forward to grasp something to prevent him from falling.
“Ow—” A miserable wail broke through the night sky and reverberated for a long time.
Gu Han’s tears filled his eyes and the last of his manly dignity tried to prevent the tears from falling.
Pei Xian’s two claws pinched the meat of his thighs, leaving four obvious scratches on the cloth.
“Mr. Gu? Why are you here?” Pei Xian thoroughly woke up by the fall and sat on the carpet looking at Gu Han with his big innocent eyes.
Boss Gu’s lips trembled. “Beg you… First… Let go…”
Only then Pei Xian realized that his hands were full of human flesh. He was so scared that he opened his five claws and hid them behind him.
“Hiss… Ah…” Gu Han curled up on the bed with his hands rubbing his thighs and rolled for 18 turns in pain.
Looking at the boss who was quivering and singing bel canto on the bed, Pei Xian was at a loss and felt that he was not far from being fired. “M-Mr. Gu, where do you ache? Should I blow it for you?”
“Beg you, don’t touch me…” Gu Han lay on the bed and buried his head deep in his arms. “You are the one God sent to take my dog life!”
How did it seem that the boss has given up? Pei Xian climbed the bed and knelt beside him. His usual poker face even carried distress, he wanted to touch the man but didn’t dare to.
After the unbearable pain passed, it was quiet. Boss Gu secretly opened his eyes; how fitting! This posture of him was only a handful of dirt away from the memorial tablet and there was even a beautiful widow kneeling beside him.
Hey, the little quail was even going to cry.
Gu Han took a deep breath and ground his molar as he sat up with numbness pain. Sniffing, he said, “I’m okay, I don’t blame you, alright?”
With those words, Pei Xian threw off the things weighing in his mind and suddenly hugged Gu Han as if he were holding a huge sum of money that he had lost and recovered. “Mr. Gu, even though I am no good, you must not leave me.”
Ah! You all see Zhen’s country will last forever! Hehehe!
Comfort hoisted from his Dantian. Gu Han hugged him back and patted him on the back as he said practically and realistically, “I’ll die without you. No one even dares to leave you.”
Ah! My houses, cars and dog are all saved! Hihihi!
Pei Xian rubbed against until Gu Han’s body splattered with his wet hair before finally got out of bed and brought the medicine box over. “Mr. Gu, I’d better check you up.”
Home clothes were light and loose in texture. Therefore, Gu Han easily rolled up his trouser legs to his thighs.
There were four green, red and purple claw marks on both sides with five black and green fingerprints on them. It would be more terrible of a sight if it was not for his wheat skin color.
Pei Xian felt unusually guilty. After all, he lived like a fairy maiden that never touch anyone in his last life. How could he hurt people like this?
“Mr. Gu, please bear it. I will be gentle.” He slowly rubbed the medicated oil on his hot palms before he carefully applied his hand onto Gu Han’s thigh.
Boss Gu’s face was serious as if he was scraping the poison off the bone. He hissed internally but breathed out a happy cool air. The mood and the gentle warm palms were just right. He really wanted to catch the little quail’s slender hands and kiss him!
Suddenly a drop of cold water fell on his warm skin and the tumultuous heart was calm for a moment. Pei Xian’s hair was wet and the heat after the bathed was gone.
Boss Gu quickly pulled the bath towel beside the bed and covered his head before he began to wipe the little quail’s hair.
Pei Xian, who was intending to treat the other man’s wounds, was very dissatisfied with the interruption of his work. He swatted away the bath towel and said, “You are blocking my eyes!”
“Okay, okay, you treat me and I’ll wipe you carefully.” Gu Han didn’t stop his hands as he perfunctorily said that.
The beautiful atmosphere just now disappeared. Now, one person rubbed legs and the other person wiped head like two disabled people who help each other; a positive energy picture full of socialist core values.
Only after Pei Xian made sure that he did not miss any other bruises did he wipe his hands clean. He lay on Gu Han’s legs and enjoyed the automatic head wiping service. Soon, drowsiness struck him. He forced to maintain his soberness as he asked, “Mr. Gu still in pain?”
Gu Han saw that he was sleepy that his expression slackened and could not help but said softly, “No pain. Go to sleep.”
The reassuring voice, like a switch, was a signal that the body and mind could be completely relaxed. Pei Xian soon fell asleep on his legs.
Gu Han reluctantly got him back on his bed. As he looked at the harmless sleeping face, he giggled for a while, then turned off the light and walked out of the room.
Just as he arrived at the door, his mobile phone vibrated and he picked it up to have a look….. But extraordinarily, Xiao Yuhang sent another message.
The message was a screenshot of a guest list, which just framed the names of Gu Han and Xiao Yuhang.
Under the screenshot, there were only two words: “Really coincidental.” He didn’t seem to be flattering and didn’t seem to be cold. It seemed as if everything had become a fated arrangement; he was richly versed in speaking skills.
Every September, famous foundations in China held a large-scale charity dinner to entertain the business, political, entertainment and art tycoons who had made contributions to charity during the year.
Both of them were well-known in the industry. It was very normal for them to be invited, let alone by chance. He just wanted to ask Gu Han whether he would attend tomorrow, which was also a cover up for the embarrassment of taking the initiative to be friendly.
After all, he was an Immortal Man. How could he approach a mortal on his own initiative?
After a lifetime of hard work, Gu Han was quite familiar with Xiao Yuhang’s tricks and careful thinking. Those former excitement and love had vanished completely, leaving only the ugly purposes.
Xiao Yuhang seemed to have returned home a little earlier than the original plot. According to the plot line, he came back for the second male lead of the year’s super production <Imperial City>.
This show was an opportunity for him to return to China for development. In order to make him return to China smoothly, Gu Han of the last life, despite the opposition and doubt, forcibly acquired one of the film and television companies under the condition that his investment was already full of strong hands, and firmly put Xiao Yuhang on the throne of the second male lead.
This kind of unreasonable and barbaric acquisition behavior made small companies dared to be angry but not speak up. After he was secretly framed by Zhou Kai, those companies also contributed a lot with those who wanted to take revenge while he was down.
Unpleasant memories surged up like waves. Gu Han stared at his mobile phone coldly with a scornful smile and his fingers moving as he replied.
[ Not leaving without seeing each other. smile.jg ]
The next day, Gu Han’s itinerary was very packed. In the morning, there was the company’s news conference for the new commodity and in the evening, there was a charity dinner party. Therefore, the accompanying vice president and assistant came to pick him up at home.
It was hard for Pei Xian to get up very early, but he prepared all kinds of things for long journey after he had breakfast and took the whole family to follow him being busy.
The tidied, dignified and ceremonious President Gu stood at the door and watched him run by with his camera. “Pei…”
No one acknowledged him.
After a while, Pei Xian ran down the stairs again. Boss Gu waved at him, “Pei Xian, I’m leaving ah.”
The little quail turned and ran into the kitchen, leaving no trace of exhaust gas.
Putting his hand away awkwardly, Gu Han turned to the assistant with a happy face and asked, “Excuse me, am I still on earth?”
“You are still here, Mr. Gu.” The professional assistant with a high professionalism gave a meticulous and positive answer.
Gu Han did not give up and asked the vice president beside him, “Uncle Wu, can you still see me?”
“I can see you, boss.” The vice president replied with integrity.
Gu Han nodded unwillingly as he sighed deeply, “It’s cold. I’m going to be out of favor…”
Boss Gu, who had never been favored but had been out of favor, walked out of the door.
The assistant and the vice president looked at each other, dumbstruck in place. Their boss seemed to be ill!
