The Lin family.
The cramped living room was still a mess, with a small dining table set up inside.
Annan sat at the dining table on a worn-out plastic stool. There were only two dishes on the table: fried beans, tofu, and stir-fried cabbage. There was no meat, and the presentation was very poor.
He felt extremely uncomfortable sitting there, his face showing undisguised disgust, while Lin Qingyang and Lin Jianxiang opposite him were engrossed in their food, seemingly oblivious to how they could eat such unpalatable food.
Seeing that the newcomer wasn't eating, Lin Qingyang asked with concern, "Aren't you going to eat?" As he spoke, he picked up a piece of bean curd and put it into An Nanyi's bowl.
Annan frowned, her disdain growing even stronger.
He didn't even touch the chopsticks, which looked old and dirty, probably used for a long time. Didn't he find it disgusting? How could he eat like that?
When he was living in Anjia, he had always eaten and used the best food since he was a child. Even after being kicked out, staying in a hotel was much better than what he was doing now. Looking at his surroundings and the food, he only felt disgusted and nauseous.
Annan, used to living the life of a young master who spent money lavishly, spent all his money in just over a month in the hotel, and his bank cards were frozen.
Having no money, he had no choice but to return to the Lin family, which he had once despised and still despises now.
Lin Jianxiang scoffed, "He can eat it or not, it's up to him. He's used to being a pampered young master in a rich family; why would he look down on us poor folks?"
Seeing An Nanyi's disgusted and contemptuous expression, Lin Jianxiang became even angrier. He put down his chopsticks and slammed his hand on the table, causing the small table to shake as it couldn't bear the weight.
"Since you fucking look down on me, then get out of here and go back to your An family to be a young master! Don't get in my way here!"
An Nanyi was startled by his sudden outburst of anger. No one in the An family had ever treated him like this before. He was filled with boundless rage. He had been feeling stifled these past few days, and now his temper was flaring up.
He stood up, gritted his teeth, and roared, "Yes! I despise you! A good-for-nothing like you who just wants to eat and wait to die shouldn't be alive and pollute the air! You don't deserve to be a father at all, and I never will..."
Just then, a crisp, loud slap rang out, interrupting An Nanyi's words. He cried out in pain and raised his hand to cover his burning cheek.
He stared incredulously at the unshaven man opposite him, his reddened eyes filled with grievance and resentment, his voice trembling slightly with emotion, "You actually dared to hit me!!"
No one has ever dared to treat him like this before!
Never!!
Lin Qingyang hid in the corner, not daring to make a sound.
He and his brother had been beaten and scolded by Lin Jianxiang quite a lot in the past, especially his brother.
He was referring to Lin Qingyan, not the older brother standing before him.
If only his brother could come back. He didn't want Annan to be his brother. Now his mother was in jail and he didn't know when she would be able to come back. His brother had gone back to his biological family and would never come back.
"Why wouldn't you dare to hit me?" Lin Jianxiang didn't take An Nanyi's overly excited reaction seriously. He sneered, "What? Do I need to pick a day to hit you?"
"you!"
"If you keep spouting nonsense at me, it won't just be a slap in the face!"
"Eat!" Lin Jianxiang sat down nonchalantly, glanced at Lin Qingyang who was hiding in the corner secretly wiping away tears, and said impatiently, "What are you crying for? Neither of you can give me any peace of mind!"
An Nan was heartbroken, aggrieved, and resentful. He didn't dare to confront Lin Jianxiang directly, so he vented his anger on the plastic stool. He kicked the stool to the ground, turned around, went back to his room, and slammed the door shut.
"Damn it! Is this how the An family raises their son?" Lin Qingxiang cursed again.
Annan had only been back for a short time and hadn't had a chance to properly examine the bedroom. Now, seeing the so-called full view of the bedroom, he felt his temples throbbing, and his handsome face contorted in shock.
What kind of bedroom is this?
It's not even as big as the bathroom in his old room!
Is Lin Qingyan living here?
No wonder...no wonder Lin Qingyan went to such lengths to return to the An family. How could anyone live in a place like this! How could Lin Qingyan possibly stay here? Even a dog wouldn't stay here!!
His face was still burning with pain, and Annan was so angry that his head was buzzing; if he were a gas cylinder, he would have exploded.
So he kicked the wall hard, but he only hurt himself. He felt even more sad and aggrieved, and tears streamed down his face like a flood.
When he lived in Anjia, his parents and two older brothers doted on him. They never even raised their voices at him, let alone hit or scold him. How dare that good-for-nothing Lin Jianxiang slap him!
No way! I absolutely can't stay in this awful place!
An Nan wiped away his tears, dragged his suitcase, pushed open the door, and walked quickly outside, as if this was some kind of hellish den that devoured people without spitting out bones, and he couldn't stay here for a second longer!
Lin Qingyang hurriedly stood up, "Where...where are you going?"
"It's none of your business!" An Nanyi didn't treat these two as his father and brother at all. After saying that, he left, and the old iron gate was slammed shut, making quite a noise.
Lin Qingxiang slammed down his chopsticks in anger again. "Damn it! If he wants to leave, he can leave. We don't need to care about him! He thinks he's some pampered young master. Even if he flies up a branch, he can't become a phoenix!"
"What's not yours isn't yours!"
Sitting next to him, Lin Qingyang glanced timidly at Lin Jianxiang, thinking that his father had finally said something sensible.
——
An Qingyan, on the other hand, was unaware of what had happened at the Lin family's home; he was still trying his best to make his partner happy.
The atmosphere in the study was somewhat tense.
Following online tutorials, An Qingyan wrapped her arms around Gu Fei's neck and sat on his lap, then wrapped her legs around his waist. What's next?! What's next?!
An Qingyan's body stiffened, her empty mind filled only with the classic three questions of the soul: Who am I? Where did I come from? Where am I going?
Gu Fei's body stiffened for a moment as the boy's aura, warm as it wafted over him.
To be honest, this position is very ambiguous and dangerous. The slightest movement could cause things to escalate and make his blood rush.
Gu Fei pursed his lips. Where did Yan Yan learn that from?
But her hands still obediently encircled the boy's waist. He had come to her, so why not take him?
Gu Fei was able to remain calm, but An Qingyan was extremely unsettled; her heart was pounding at about 180 miles per hour.
Now he was in a dilemma, and he bit his lip nervously and conflictedly. Then he moved closer, pressing his chest against the man's chest and resting his head on the man's shoulder.
"Brother Fei, please don't be angry with me anymore..."
An Qingyan spoke very close, his soft lips almost touching Gu Fei's ear. Gu Fei's ear hadn't turned red yet, but An Qingyan's ear turned bright red, but that didn't stop him from coaxing Gu Fei.
"I really didn't mean to, I just didn't want you to meet other people." The boy deliberately dragged out the last syllable, making his already pleasant voice even softer and more endearing, with a touch of coquetry that made the ears of those around him almost melt.
Moreover, these words were spoken directly into Gu Fei's ear. The effect was amplified exponentially; Gu Fei's lips tightened even more, and he made a swallowing motion.
He remained calm and managed to withstand the onslaught.
How come there's not the slightest bit of wavering?!
An Qingyan felt somewhat defeated, but the more she was defeated, the more determined she became.
"Brother Fei, can you really bear to be angry with me?" He easily kissed Gu Fei's earlobe and rubbed his head against the man's neck, just like a clingy little orange.
"Don't be angry anymore, okay..." He paused, then lowered his voice and uttered two words: "Brother."
The man's arms tightened around him instantly, his deep eyes growing even more somber. His heart pounded, and he managed to steady himself as he swayed precariously. He calmed his voice and said, "Yan Yan, stop fooling around."
Do you know the consequences of doing this?
"..." An Qingyan could clearly feel Gu Fei perk up again. The feeling of sitting on his lap was incredibly clear. Okay, he already knew the consequences.
He mustered his courage and muttered under his breath, "At worst, we'll just make it a fait accompli."
But the timing isn't right now. Gu Fei's mother has just returned home and is still thinking about finding Gu Fei a partner.
Gu Fei couldn't stand these words and abandoned all pretense of being a gentleman. He immediately grabbed the person in his arms by the buttocks, placed him on the desk in front of him, held the back of the boy's head, and forcefully kissed his slightly parted lips.
“How come Brother Fei didn’t know…” He moved his lips slightly away and chuckled very softly, his magnetic voice deep and indulgent, “So Yan Yan is a spoiled brat.”
"I don't... um..." Before An Qingyan could deny it, her lips were sealed again.
He could feel the man's palm slipping under his clothes, completely unconcerned...
The temperature in the study reached its peak.
Just then, a sudden knock sounded at the door, and Yu Qingtong's voice came through the door:
"Gu Fei, I've arranged a time and place to meet Miss Su tomorrow at 5:30 PM at XX Coffee Shop near your company, understand?"
"Gu Fei?"
An Qingyan's eyes widened in horror. He had forgotten to lock the door. If his aunt came in now... He hurriedly tried to push Gu Fei away, but Gu Fei held him tightly around the waist and kissed his lips.
"Gu Fei? Are you inside? Shall I come in?"
An Qingyan: "!!!"
His heart jumped into his throat.
Just then, Gu Fei finally moved his lips away, his calm tone completely flat: "I understand."
"Okay, it's settled then!" Yu Qingtong left happily after receiving the reply.
The sudden ups and downs left An Qingyan trembling with fear. She angrily pushed the man's head away, saying, "You scared me to death!"
Gu Fei teased him, "It's very exciting."
"You really want to meet Miss Su?"
"Um."
"..." An Qingyan used all her strength to push Gu Fei away, got up and walked out, "Go meet your Miss Su!"
Gu Fei swiftly grabbed his arm, wrapped it around his waist, and spoke in a gentle tone that carried a deeper meaning:
"You haven't finished comforting Yan Yan yet."
