Chapter 22 Chapter 22 The world is endless, but it is just a different path from ours...
How could he forget?
To forget Gu Jianqing is to forget the dark humiliation from the past, which is called deep hatred.
Once Gu Jianqing returns to China, he will definitely teach him a lesson without hesitation.
Su Ting came to his senses and was about to brush it off by saying "Children shouldn't worry about adults' feelings", but Ye Xiuming's persistent look made him give up the idea.
He answered seriously: "It is the harm caused by inhuman beings."
Ye Xiuming stopped asking this question here, because if he asked any further, it would only bring up the topic of photos.
He didn't want to remove the scar without permission, as it would hurt Su Ting.
"I will never hurt you." There was a hint of sweetness in Ye Xiuming's smile.
Su Ting pondered for a long time before saying, "'Forever' is a very vague word. Please don't define it too soon, okay?"
Once, Gu Jianqing also told him that he would love him forever.
But then he turned around and hugged his new love and spread his naked photos.

When it was time for the final exams, Ye Xiuming was finally too busy to hang around Su Ting, which gave Su Ting the opportunity to finally ask him something.
He met Xie Fengsheng, the manager of Tonghui Bank, in a bar and ordered two Negronis. The subtle aroma of orange peel immediately spread between the two of them.
Xie Fengsheng was wearing a black coat similar in style to Su Ting's, and even the sweater he wore underneath was similar. He had a characteristic oriental mysterious face, with brows as steep as stone steps and a sharp jaw angle. His whole face had a feeling of ice sculpture, cold and aloof.
In terms of personality, Xie Fengsheng is most like Su Ting.
Su Ting said straight to the point: "I remember when you approved that loan for me, there were people with better qualifications and credit than me at the same time."
Xie Fengsheng nodded: "Indeed."
"So, if he could get this loan, he might have everything I have now... Then I would be the one who stole someone else's life."
Xie Fengsheng clinked his glasses with him and said veiledly, "So I still hold a lot of power."
"You think so too." Su Ting drank half a glass of wine with an ambiguous expression. "Can you tell me his name?"
Xie Fengsheng glanced at Su Ting with a cold but sharp gaze and said, "This goes against my professional ethics."
Su Ting did not insist any further, "Since you think morality is above everything else, then forget it."
Xie Fengsheng tentatively reached out his hand and touched Su Ting's wrist, which was holding the Negroni.
Su Ting silently approved of his indulgence, with a gloomy spark in his eyes.
Xie Fengsheng: "However, I have never cared about things like 'morality'. It was the same in the past and it is still the same now."
"So what's the price for telling me his name?"
"Go on a date with me."
Su Ting was already familiar with this kind of pursuit. He endured everything with an empty and tired heart, but his face was very hot and there was a strange contradiction.
"Okay," Su Ting said, "I've learned a lot of new dishes recently, so I can show you some."
Xie Fengsheng said slowly, "Then let's go to your house tomorrow?"
Su Ting said "hmm".
The next day, after Su Ting sent Ye Xiuming off, he went to the supermarket to buy ingredients. This time he wanted to make Lasagna Italian lasagna. Although the final product only had one baking tray, it required a lot of ingredients.
It takes at least two hours to make a Lasagna, but Suting thinks it is a very cost-effective business.
If he could use a simple meal to get the name of the person who threw the paint and identify this potential threat, Ye Xiuming would no longer have to worry about himself.
Soutine poured olive oil into a frying pan, heated it up, added onions, celery and carrots, then added minced pork and beef and fried them until they were browned, then turned them over to the other side, poured in red wine and brought to a boil, poured in chopped tomatoes, and then turned to low heat and simmered.
After the meat sauce is ready, he brushes olive oil on the baking tray, puts the dough, meat sauce and cheese in order, and assembles them several times in a cycle until the baking tray is topped with a thicker layer of dough.
Then just cover with tin foil and bake.
This is a traditional Bolognese method, which was taught to Soutine by a chef when he was traveling in Italy. The Lasagna meat sauce made in this way is full of gelatin. When you cut it with a knife, the cross-section is as clear as a geological fault, and it has the healing power of a grandmother.
When Xie Fengsheng came with a bottle of Chianti red wine, Su Ting had already arranged the salad and lasagna on the plate and calmly led him in.
This was Xie Fengsheng's second visit to Su Ting's house. This time seemed significantly different from the last time. He looked at the complicated thousand-layer cake on the dining table and said, "Something seems to be different about you."
Su Ting slowly pulled a chair out for him and said, "Hurry up and sit down."
Xie Fengsheng looked around and suddenly saw a few pairs of small-sized white shoes in the shoe cabinet. He couldn't help but think of something wrong and said coldly, "Why do you have little boy's shoes at home? Do you... have a hobby in that area?"
Su Ting was stunned, and his eyes followed Xie Fengsheng to the shoe cabinet. He smiled charmingly: "Those are my son's shoes."
"You have a son?"
Su Ting said leisurely: "Well, I picked it up on the street."
Xie Fengsheng: "Is there such a thing? Where are the adults in their family?"
"He was abandoned." Su Ting handed him a knife and fork. "Let's eat."
Xie Fengsheng forked a piece of lasagna filled with gelatin and cheese into his mouth and said frankly, "I suddenly feel that anyone who can be with you must be very happy."
Su Tingxin said, if I didn’t want to know who threw the paint, who would endure the discomfort and eat a meal.
There is no doubt that he will never be with anyone in his life.
Oh, no, except for Ye Xiuming, the adopted son.
They were cruelly brought together by fate.
"So can you tell me the name of that person?" Su Ting asked.
Xie Fengsheng asked for a high price: "Unless you stay with me."
Su Ting put down his knife and fork and said angrily, "Do you want to be together once, or several times?"
Xie Fengsheng's eyes fell into gloom: "Not this kind, the kind that makes you willingly give your whole body and soul to me."
"What's the time limit?"
"lifetime."
Su Ting felt that "a lifetime" was more ridiculous than "forever".
Life is long and winding, it's nothing more than getting drunk with people who have different ideals and beliefs. Who cares about whether you are cold or warm, hungry or full?
Su Ting laughed dryly: "Don't make fun of me."
Xie Fengsheng said: "Back then, you were broke and had pornographic photos all over the place. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be where you are today."
Indeed not.
But if he had to sacrifice his entire life, Su Ting would rather die at the hands of that mysterious man.
"Fengsheng, if you have a little bit of common sense, you will know that I hate being coerced the most." Su Ting looked at the table with good intentions, "But you disappoint me."
Xie Fengsheng was like a gust of wind, suddenly blowing in front of Su Ting. He grabbed Su Ting's hand and let him fall into his arms. Coincidentally, Ye Xiuming came back at this time.
"Let go of my little dad."
