Chapter Ch60 - It Has Been Six Years, I Should Wake Up.

Editor: Amaris

Ye Chen blushed profusely and tried to defend himself, “I…I actually wanted to say…”

Ren Jing said in a tender voice, “What did you want to say?”

Ye Chen mumbled, “Let’s…uh…”

Before he could utter the five words, ‘help me wash my clothes’, Ren Jing kissed him. At first, he tried to break off, but the moment the tip of their tongues met, his mind felt like fireworks were bursting inside. Beside their clumsy coordination, Ye Chen didn’t know what to do anymore.

After kissing for a while, Ren Jing brushed the tip of his nose against Ye Chen as he said, “Take a breath.”

Ye Chen stared at him blankly, then obediently took a deep breath.

Ren Jing stared at Ye Chen’s lips and kissed him again.

The room was still and quiet, two people were kissing within each other’s embrace, everything felt just perfect.

In the end, Ye Chen’s ‘help me wash my clothes’ turned into a full bath instead.

Not sure how, Ye Chen had entered the bathroom and had his clothes taken off. When Ren Jing held him, it was as if he was standing high in the fluffy clouds with the beautiful morning glow. The light was bursting and illuminating the night sky and earth.

When he came out of the bathroom, Ye Chen’s legs felt soft. Ren Jing carried him and put him on the bed very carefully.

Ye Chen held his arm and fell asleep not long after.

Ren Jing wasn’t used to taking a nap, but looking at the peaceful expression of the man in his arms, he suddenly felt at ease. He began to feel sleepy and fell asleep while hugging Ye Chen.

Death System, “Coward, coward, coward, I’ll crush you two cowards to death!”

It was such a good opportunity, but they actually didn’t do it! They have obviously reached third base before, just a bit more and they would actually go full house! There’s no Grandpa for you to save, please just hurry up and do it for my sake, would you!

I’m so very angry that I almost become a blowfis.h.!.+

While things were going very sweetly for this couple here, there was also a breakthrough happening on the other side.

After Gu Xi and Shen Jiaze went out, they were standing in the parking lot when Gu Xi said, “I don’t want to drive.”

Shen Jiaze hurriedly said, “I drove a car here, how about I send you home?”

Gu Xi, “Sure.”

Shen Jiaze was afraid that he had misheard Gu Xi’s reply. “We’re going together in my car?”

Gu Xi glanced at him. “I can’t ride your car?”

“You can… You certainly can!” said Shen Jiaze. “I’ll get the car.”

Just as he was about to leave, he paused his steps again. Shen Jiaze turned around to look at Gu Xi and couldn’t help but ask, “How about we go together?”

Gu Xi shook his head and chuckled. “You’re afraid I’d run away?”

Shen Jiaze asked him earnestly, “Are you going to run away?”

Gu Xi replied, “Don’t let your imagination run wild. As long as you don’t make me angry, I won’t leave.”

Shen Jiaze stood right where he was. It seemed like there were nails at the soles of his feet, pinning him to the ground. “You’ve never really been angry before, right?” Why would he be angry if he didn’t care anymore?

Gu Xi waved his hand. “Go get the car.”

Shen Jiaze didn’t move an inch.

Gu Xi gave him a kick. “Go get the car for me!”

Shen Jiaze looked at him. His mature and steady pretense crumbled to dust at once, revealing the look of a wolf cub&#k2014;&#k2014;he was merely an abandoned, lonely wolf who couldn’t find its own pack.

“What in the world are you doing?” Shen Jiaze asked with a hoa.r.s.e voice.

He couldn’t read into what Gu Xi was planning to do, and he didn’t dare get his hopes up.

Just because he was in despair that time, he had destroyed the bottom lines of his principle and dignity. What would he do if that happened again?

Gu Xi, Gu Xi, Gu Xi. These two words were like charms to him. They had been entwined in his heart since ten years ago, and he was unable to dispel them even a little.

He didn’t mind being a subst.i.tute. He didn’t mind being abandoned. No matter what Gu Xi had done, he would…

Gu Xi closed his eyes. “I’ve never treated you as anyone’s subst.i.tute.”

Shen Jiaze was startled.

Gu Xi lowered his head to look at the tip of his toes. He tried his best to say these with a calm voice, “I don’t like Shen Qingxu. He’s nothing like you. I was together with you simply because I wanted to be with you. I like you. The one I loved from the beginning to the end, is Shen Jiaze alone.”

Shen Jiaze slowly opened his eyes wide. He couldn’t believe what he had just heard.

Gu Xi approached him, pulled his clothes, then said with a voice choking with emotion which he was unable to control anymore, “Shen Jiaze, how could you have the heart to bully me just like this? How could you insult all the feelings I’ve given to you…”

Upon smacking his lips, his tears dripped down to his fair-skinned wrist like broken pieces of beads.

Shen Jiaze’s head was buzzing. His mind was filled with this: Gu Xi is crying. Gu Xi is crying because of me…

He said in a daze, “Don’t cry…don’t cry.”

Each drop of Gu Xi’s tears was like lava which bored deep into the ground and burned his heart.

Gu Xi pushed him to the pillar. He raised his head and looked at Shen Jiaze with tears across his face. His voice was extremely choked with sobs when he said, “What are we? Tell me… What are we for all these years!”

Shen Jiaze stared at him in a trance. What he saw was the Gu Xi he had never seen before.

“Xi Xi…” His voice was trembling when he asked, “Did you really…”

Gu Xi had never been this out of control ever in his whole life. “How could I even lose my heart to a fool like you!”

Shen Jiaze’s whole body froze. When he had returned to his senses, he couldn’t control the muscle on his face anymore. He held Gu Xi and kissed him messily.

Gu Xi didn’t push him away. He even hugged Shen Jiaze’s neck and kissed him back pa.s.sionately and wildly.

They were not under the influence of alcohol, they were very sober. The two hearts which were now stuck together had finally beaten in sync.

For so many years, they had misunderstood each other due to a freak combination of factors. Fortunately, they didn’t commit their feelings to the wrong person.

Comrade Old Yu felt annoyed, very, very annoyed.

His a.s.sistant had run away, Gu Xi had betrayed him, Little Chen Chen had increasingly misbehaved. Everything made him so very irritated.

This was life, but why did it look like everything changed in an instant after he returned to his motherland?

Yu Xingzhe drank alone to drown his sorrows in broad daylight. The more he drank, the more he became annoyed and angry. In the end, he picked up his cellphone and called SUN.

No answer.

Old Yu became angrier. He wrote a lot of random words and curses, such as ‘If you want to roll, then roll farther’, ‘A lot of people would be able to do your job’, ‘Laozi didn’t care about you’, ‘Never come back ever since you’ve left’, ‘If you don’t want to receive my call, then never receive it anymore for your whole life!’

Sadly, he was unable to send any of them out. After he deleted all of them, he became calmer. After composing a few words, he stated: [I was just pretending with Gu Xi, we’re not together.]

After sending the message, Yu Xingzhe felt uneasy all over. Why on earth did he need to explain this to SUN?

Right after that, SUN’s voice that came through from Ye Chen’s phone seemed to be echoing on his ears, “I’ve always liked A Zhe, it’s the kind of like where I wanted to be his lover…”

SUN liked him.

But he never knew.

Eventually, Yu Xingzhe’s phone rang. It was a text message.

Yu Xingzhe immediately picked up his phone, then observed the message seriously word by word and phrase by phrase.

[I know that you’re pretending with Director Gu. I also know that you’re not together. But I’m sorry, I really can’t do this job anymore. What I said to Ye Chen that day was what I wanted to say to you. I like you. I’ve always been hiding it from you, I’m really sorry. But now that you’ve known, it’s time for me to leave.]

Yu Xingzhe can’t help but asked: [Why do you need to leave?]

SUN replied: [Don’t be so cruel, A Zhe. I’ve been enduring it for six years, it’s been such a long time. Even though I’ve been together with you morning and night, you never think of me that way. This is already pretty obvious, doesn’t it? The matter this time has woken me up.]

Yu Xingzhe stared at his phone without blinking.

He looked at the last message SUN sent to him. […It has been six years, I should wake up.]

A feeling of inconceivable helplessness was rus.h.i.+ng through him. Yu Xingzhe leaned back on the sofa and looked at the ceiling without any focus.

When SUN was always by his side, he didn’t know how to cherish him. Now that he had lost him, he had just found out what it meant by ‘indispensable’.

The more Ye Chen slept, the hotter he felt. Soon, it felt too hot for him as if he was being held by a stove.

He turned over and felt something heavy on his waist. He was being weighed down so much that he gasped for breath.

Ye Chen swung his hand angrily and hit a st.u.r.dy chest as a result.

After staying still for a second, Brother Chen was finally awake.

Oh my gos.h.!.+ I had a bath, then… Uhm…

Ye Chen rubbed his eyes open and saw the Sleeping Beauty Movie King.

Oh dear… How beautiful, eh-hem…

Ye Chen secretly took a glance at him. His little heart trembled, feeling like he really wanted to kiss the sleeping beauty.

But he didn’t dare to. Ren Jing was sleeping very soundly and peacefully, looking very lethargic.

Ye Chen felt his heart ache for Ren Jing. He worked so hard that he didn’t get to rest properly again, right?

Really, how could he even make that much money? It wouldn’t run out no matter how hard he spent it!

After staring at Ren Jing quietly for a long time, he somewhat felt like going to the toilet. Hence, he cautiously moved out of Ren Jing’s embrace, then he wiggled out again and again, and finally almost got out of the bed. At last, he accomplished the achievement of snuggling out of Ren Jing’s embrace without waking him up.

Ye Chen flaunted to the system. “How was it? The skill of this brother isn’t bad at all, no?”

Death System, “Haha.”

Ye Chen was puzzled. “What’s the matter with you again?”

Death System, “I don’t want to talk with a muddled child.”

Ye Chen was very honest when he asked, “Who’s a muddled child?”

Death System, “You. Are. The. Muddled. Child. Goodbye!”

Ye Chen, “…” This spicy chicken system!

Ye Chen’s face was hot, he got out of bed and immediately went to the bathroom to solve his physiological problem.

The mission hadn’t been completed, but there was still enough time. Ren Jing was still sleeping, Ye Chen didn’t want to wake him up.

Just as Ye Chen was about to lay on his bed again, the doorbell rang.

He didn’t think too much about it. He simply thought that it might be either Old Gu, Old Yu, or Xiao Liu who had come.

Ye Chen wore the slippers and went to open the door. He peeped through the peephole habitually, but this time he nearly fell on his knees for being terrified.

Grandpa… Grandpa, why are you here?

Indeed, the one who stood outside was old man Ye. The old man wore a fine suit and his hair was combed neatly. His a.s.sistant behind him carried a black umbrella to s.h.i.+eld him from the sunlight. This was what was called having a dominant temperament.

Although Ye Chen was frightened almost to death, he also felt really moved.

How long had it been since he saw such a hale and hearty grandpa?

It seemed like the ten life points had worked.

It’s just… Grandpa, what are you here for!

Ye Chen wished he wouldn’t need to open the door, but he didn’t dare to. But then, if he opened the door…

Ren Jing was still sleeping in my bedroom. Wh-what do I do!?

After hesitating for a second or two, he eventually opened the door.

It wouldn’t do if he didn’t open the door. His car was outside, which meant that the owner must be inside. After all, if he let the old man stand outside any longer, he was afraid he was going to be beaten from a healthy body into a pig’s head by his father.

Upon opening the door while trembling with fear, Ye Chen called out under his breath, “Grandpa…”

Old man Ye felt that his whole body was filled with an endless amount of energy. He laughed out loudly with ample confidence and vigour. “I happened to pa.s.s by, so I came to see you.”

Surrrrrrrpriiiiiiiseeeeee homies, ya definitely didn’t expect to see me here this chapter, yeh? coughs,,, Okay in all seriousness though, Nikki-san suffered food poisoning (cries ) and isn’t feeling really well, so I did this chapter in her stead.
