Chapter 60: Shame and Angry
Yu Chucheng was startled by this sudden confinement, and suddenly felt a chill on his back.
He clenched his teeth, breathing a little faster than before, and his heartbeat began to gradually warm up and speed up.
He had previously thought that the bathroom in this apartment was quite large, spacious and bright, and had a window for ventilation.
But now it was difficult for him to even turn around in the bathroom.
"Yeah, what's wrong?" Yu Chucheng started to get nervous for no reason. Duan Huaijin's tone was no different from usual, as if he was asking casually and naturally, but his intuition told him that Duan Huaijin seemed a little unhappy.
"She is Ji Zhou's cousin. The last time Ji Zhou and I went to the hotel, I wanted to help her get back at the scumbag. Besides, she is a Beta. We are just good friends."
Yu Chucheng spoke whatever came to his mind like pouring beans.
"How do you know her game ID is Xiao Shu? Have you ever played games with each other?"
Duan Huaijin's eyelashes drooped slightly.
It turns out that Xiao Shu is just a game ID, not a name with any special meaning.
"No." Duan Huaijin loosened the strength in his hands and lowered his head to stare at the thin waist in front of him.
Yu Chucheng's exposed skin is already white enough, but I didn't expect his waist to be even whiter.
Not only is it white, but it is also well-proportioned, with smooth lines and no trace of excess fat.
The undried medicine flowed down along the waistline and was about to wet the clothes next to it.
Duan Huaijin reached out and wiped it with his palm.
"Ugh!"
Yu Chucheng was caught off guard, his eyes widened, and his whole body jolted forward and shook violently.
It was over. He seemed to make some shameful sound.
Duan Huaijin was also stunned, as if his chest was stepped on by the pads of a cat's retracted claws.
Yu Chucheng's face turned red instantly, and the temperature on his face rose suddenly.
He covered his mouth, pulled down his clothes in shame and anger, and babbled, "It's a nice day today. I'm going out first."
After saying that, he found a gap with his hands and feet and slipped out of the bathroom as if he had greased his feet.
Duan Huaijin looked at the remaining potion in his palm, and suddenly a fire ignited in his chest, burning his mouth and making his tongue dry.
He tilted his head back, and his Adam's apple rolled violently. It took him a long time to suppress the restlessness.

"First journey, first journey?"
The person on the other side called out to Yu Chucheng twice before he came back to his senses from his daze, "Ah? What's wrong?"
Xin Yihan handed over the coffee menu, "I've chosen it, take a look at what you want to drink and I'll treat you."
Yu Chucheng touched his ear and took it. "No need. I said I'll treat you before you came."
After hanging up the phone with Xin Yihuan last time, Yu Chucheng had been wanting to find an opportunity to express his gratitude to Xin Yihuan in person. After all, he was in such a rush before that he hung up before Xin Yihuan even finished speaking.
Xin Yihan was very happy when she received Yu Chucheng's message and agreed immediately. The two met in a cafe not far from the apartment.
After ordering coffee, Yu Chucheng also ordered some desserts for Xin Yihan.
Xin Yihan hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking, "Did you go to see Duan Huaijin that night?"
Yu Chucheng held his chin up and turned his gaze away from the pedestrians passing by the window. "Ah, yes. Today I mainly want to thank you for telling me the news. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, just tell me directly. I will do my best to help you."
Hearing that she didn't come specially to meet him, Xin Yihan pursed her lips a little disappointedly.
The waiter quickly brought the fragrant coffee, which was a little hot. Yu Chucheng drank it in small sips. The sunlight shining on him was quiet and beautiful.
Xin Yihan was fascinated by the cup in her hand, and she felt an urge to express her feelings directly.
"I……"
"Finally I found you, please help me!"
A voice interrupted Xin Yihan's words.
Duan Haixiang was wearing the clothes they wore at the construction site. He was covered in dust and had a pair of old army green cloth shoes with frayed edges. When he pushed the door open, everyone looked at him.
When Yu Chucheng looked up, he saw Duan Haixiang walking towards him with a clear goal, muttering something like "please" as he walked.
"I didn't want to look for you, but there's really no other way. The debt collector has been sleeping on our construction site and keeps coming to my house. Please give me some money. I swear I will pay you back in the future."
Yu Chucheng originally just thought that the man looked familiar, but after hearing about the gambling debt, he remembered that this guy was Duan Huaijin's adoptive father.
Duan Haixiang looked like he had just come out of a construction site. There was a layer of dust on his shoulders. His skin was dark and his lips were chapped. He knelt down as soon as he walked up to Yu Chucheng, looking pitiful and desperate.
Xin Yihan frowned and grabbed Duan Haixiang unhappily, "Who are you?"
Duan Haixiang didn't want to pay any attention to him at all. He pushed Xin Yihan away and hugged Yu Chucheng's thighs tightly.
Yu Chucheng was blocked by Duan Haixiang, unable to get up, unable to move his legs, "You did this all by yourself, why should I help you pay off your debts?"
Duan Haixiang rubbed his nose and tears on Yu Chucheng's pants, "Didn't you talk to my son? Please help me for the sake of me being his father. Otherwise, debt collectors will always come to our house. What if they go crazy and attack Duan Huaijin one day?"
Xin Yihuan heard the sound of his own heart breaking. He looked at Yu Chucheng and said, "You and Duan..."
Yu Chucheng was confused. "Who told you that we talked?"
Duan Haixiang paused for a moment, "I, I saw it with my own eyes, at the entrance of the alley, you two were hugging each other."
The entrance of the alley?
Yu Chucheng suddenly remembered the sound coming from the alley that night. A black cat ran out at that time and he thought he was overthinking it. It seems that someone really was secretly watching them in the dark that night.
Yu Chucheng stared into Duan Haixiang's eyes.
Duan Haixiang avoided looking at me, and it was obvious that he was lying.
And if it was really him that night, then wouldn't he have just come out and ask him for money? It would have been more pathetic and realistic for him to beg him in front of Duan Huaijin and him. Why had he waited until now in secret?
It seemed that someone was deliberately trying to draw fire to him.
Yu Chucheng sneered, "Why are you asking me for money? Doesn't your son have any?"
Duan Haixiang shook his head randomly. "His family is very strict. He can't come up with so much money in a short time. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have gambled..."
Halfway through his speech, Duan Haixiang realized something was wrong and quickly stopped talking.
He looked at Yu Chucheng with fear and trepidation.
Is this guy trying to trick him or is he just asking casually?
Xin Yihan, who was standing aside, didn't understand what he meant by his family was strict. Isn't Duan Huaijin his son?
Yu Chucheng realized that Duan Haixiang accidentally let it slip that he was talking about Zhang Hanzhou, and he frowned slightly.
It was only a few hundred thousand yuan. His brother usually gave him this much pocket money. How could Zhang Hanzhou, as the eldest son of the Zhang family, not be able to come up with it? This was too strange.
Duan Haixiang's eyes moved quickly, and he quickly grabbed Yu Chucheng's legs again, sobbing with tears in his eyes.
"I really don't want to affect your relationship and I don't want to beg you, but if this continues I really can't live. If you don't help me... then those debt collectors will go to Duan Huaijin, and you definitely don't want him to be threatened."
