Dating a Rich Godfather 10
Of course, Tao Yuan did not change his major in the end. He himself didn't care which department he was in, but since Chinese painting was the original owner's choice, he would help him complete it.
Although he didn't change his major, he still agreed to participate in Go competitions. Formal Go competitions offer high prize money. Of course, this didn't stop him from participating in Chinese painting competitions. He submitted several works to competitions and exhibitions, and all of them were sold at high prices.
Tao Yuan had been making a lot of money recently. After Du Yi was discharged from the hospital, they moved to a better place, a duplex in an upscale neighborhood. Tao Yuan rented the house himself and hired a maid to cook and clean every day. This way, even if he didn't go home at night, he wouldn't have to worry about Du Yi being left alone.
After class, Tao Yuan took Du Yi to the supermarket in the department store to buy snacks. Du Yi said he needed new stationery, so they took the elevator to the fifth floor.
Tao Yuan let Du Yi choose by himself. Looking at the dazzling array of stationery items, he also started to browse around casually.
There was a man bending over to sort out the goods in front of him. Tao Yuan thought the back of the man looked familiar and stopped for a few seconds. When the man turned around, he realized why he looked so familiar. Wasn't this Hu Wenshan, whom he hadn't seen for a while?
Hu Wenshan was also stunned when he saw Tao Yuan. This place was not close to the school, and he didn't expect to meet Tao Yuan here.
Tao Yuan turned around and looked at the light box on the wall. It said Wenshan Stationery. "Is this the store you opened?"
"...That's right." Hu Wenshan lied to save face. Although the stationery store was called Wenshan Stationery, it was actually owned by a relative who had named it Wenshan Stationery to curry his favor. Now, he could only work for that relative and endure constant ridicule because his teaching license had been revoked. Not only were there no public or private schools, but even no training programs wanted him.
"It seems that you have made a lot of money before, and you can open such a large document store here." Tao Yuan said.
"I didn't take money from other students!" Hu Wenshan's face looked very ugly. When he thought that it was the person in front of him who made him what he was now, he couldn't control his anger.
"Did I mention you took money from other students? If you have such a low IQ, you should just be a good person. You don't have the intelligence, but you choose to be a bad person." Tao Yuan looked at him with disdain. "In order to prevent me from getting the scholarship and to prevent me from overshadowing Xu Shaoyan, you must have taken a lot of benefits, right?"
Hu Wenshan's face turned grim and he remained silent. He did get some benefits, but not as much as others thought. He was just doing what he was told by his superiors.
"Brother, I've made my choice." Du Yi, carrying a shopping basket, finally found Tao Yuan.
"Well," Tao Yuan turned and looked at him, "go to the counter to settle the bill first, I'll be right there."
Du Yi walked towards the counter carrying a basket.
"You are just relying on your backers. I am no longer a teacher at Dongjing University. There is no need for you to show off in front of me!" Hu Wenshan said gritting his teeth.
"If I didn't have a backer, or if my backer wasn't as strong as yours, I'd be the one expelled from Dongjing University." Tao Yuan looked at him coldly. "You guys have shown the ugly face of bullying the weak to the fullest. They say that every wicked person will be punished by his own wickedness. I want to be the wicked person who punishes you and let you also taste the feeling of being bullied and oppressed."
After Tao Yuan finished speaking, he turned and walked to the counter.
Suddenly a voice called out, "Hu Wenshan, what are you doing? Why haven't you delivered the goods yet?"
Tao Yuan looked back at Hu Wenshan again, smiled sarcastically, and continued walking forward. He knew that this couldn't be Hu Wenshan's own shop.
Hu Wenshan's face, originally livid, suddenly flushed red again. He was shaking with anger, but he could only turn around and continue sorting the goods. The person who had just called him was the owner's brother-in-law. They both ran the store together, but he did nothing but collect money.
Tao Yuan was pushing his family cart and about to enter the apartment building when his phone rang. He pulled it out and checked it. It was a transfer message from the gallery, indicating the payment for his recently purchased painting had arrived. Seeing the long string of numbers, Tao Yuan decided it was time to expedite his work.
After Tao Yuan sent Du Yi upstairs, he came down again shortly afterwards. He took out his cell phone and called Wei Shicheng. "Hello, godfather, are you at the office?"
"Then I'll come to you now."
Tao Yuan got into the car arranged for him by Wei Shicheng and prepared to go to Wei Shicheng's company to meet him. Thinking about what he was going to perform next, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
When Wei Shicheng saw Tao Yuan coming in, he immediately turned off the computer and reached out to him, "Baby, come to your godfather."
Tao Yuan did not walk up to him and sit on his lap as he did in the past.
"Godfather, I have something to tell you." Tao Yuan stood in front of Wei Shicheng's desk.
"What do you want to say?" Wei Shicheng saw that his expression was different from usual, so he also became serious.
"I recently participated in a competition and sold a lot of paintings, making a lot of money," said Tao Yuan.
"Well, I've watched all your Go games and bought your paintings. You're really great and amazing."
"Thank you, godfather, for giving me the greatest help when I was in the most difficult time. You helped me get through it. I'm really grateful to you." Tao Yuan looked at him with sincere eyes, then took out the black card and placed it on the desk. "This is all the money I've used from you, including the cost of Du Yi's surgery. It's all here."
"What do you mean?" Wei Shicheng didn't look at the card, but kept staring at Tao Yuan's face.
"I want to end our current relationship." Tao Yuan said this with great courage. Not everyone can behave normally under the intimidation of Wei Shicheng's aura.
"Do you remember what I said to you on the first night?" Wei Shicheng looked calm, but beneath his calm surface, there were already turbulent waves.
"……Remember."
"Repeat that."
"It's only over when you say it's over."
"Did I tell you I was done?"
"No."
"You've always been a very smart child. You shouldn't need me to teach you what to do. But considering that you're still young and there are always times when you're confused, I'll give you a hint. Before I get angry, put the card away and I'll pretend nothing happened."
"In fact, I know very well in my heart that resisting forcefully will only lead to more suffering, but the result will be the same."
"You are indeed a smart kid. You haven't been carried away by your recent success." Wei Shicheng waited for him to continue.
"Does Godfather like me?" Tao Yuan asked. "When I say like, I don't mean like in bed, I don't mean like my body, but like it spiritually."
Wei Shicheng was silent for a moment and then said, "You are very outstanding and deserve to be loved in every aspect."
"Not this kind of love. This kind of love is not pure, nor equal." Tao Yuan shook his head. "What I want is an equal relationship, not a transaction of body and money, but also pure appreciation."
"Young people like to fantasize, I can understand that. But Qingyu, I may not be able to give you the relationship you want, but I won't let you go just yet."
"I know I'm delusional, but I'm young, and young people should think about unrealistic things." Tao Yuan's expression was stubborn, but tears rolled down his face. "If I can't realize my delusion, then I will resist you. Let me see how cruel you can be to me."
Tao Yuan turned around and left resolutely, as if he would never look back.
Tao Yuan's tears had a profound impact on Wei Shicheng. The tears that streamed down his face were like knives piercing his heart, causing him great pain. He subconsciously wanted to chase him and comfort him, but he sat motionless, because only by maintaining this posture could he control himself.
Tao Yuan didn't take the car Wei Shicheng had arranged for him, but took a taxi home. He couldn't stop crying while sitting in the taxi. The taxi driver seemed unfazed and didn't say anything. The two of them rode in silence all the way.
Tao Yuan held his chest and took a deep breath, feeling as if he had been too immersed in the role, and was still feeling fear and sadness. He was clearly certain that Wei Shicheng would fall in love with him, so why was he really starting to worry now?
Wei Shicheng turned the sofa chair around and peered out through the glass wall, memories streaming through his mind. Memories of his youthful, alluring body, his face that blushed easily but was always deliberately stern. Memories of his intoxicated expression beneath him, the way he'd flirted with her, the look in his eyes that pleaded for mercy in his arms.
Wei Shicheng had always felt that, though there were many young, beautiful children, it was rare to find one so suited to his taste. To thank Mr. Chen for sending him to him, he not only agreed to work with him but also offered him many benefits. He felt that everything was worth it for this child.
He was so well-behaved, so obedient, so tempting and delicious... and so outstanding. Wei Shicheng closed his eyes and thought, it was precisely because he was outstanding that he was unwilling to be kept by someone else forever?
Wei Shicheng had always believed that his future partner, even if she couldn't satisfy him physically, must be compatible with him spiritually. The child satisfied him physically, to the point where he couldn't leave her, but could he also be his soul mate spiritually?
Wei Shicheng thought for a long time, until the sunlight outside became dim, he opened his eyes and made up his mind.
Since he couldn't leave her body and she didn't want to hurt him, she might as well give him her wish and try a normal relationship with him. He was so smart and clever. If she nurtured him well, he wouldn't disappoint her. A soulmate she nurtured herself was always better than one that appeared out of nowhere.
Tao Yuan returned home feeling somewhat uneasy. He didn't know what Wei Shicheng would do next: would he talk to him again, continuing their relationship based on physical and financial transactions, or would he relent and agree to a romantic relationship? Judging by the level of peach blossom activity in his system, he was certain he wouldn't hurt him.
A few days later, Wei Shicheng still hadn't made any move, neither calling him nor coming to see him in person. Tao Yuan couldn't help but feel a little discouraged that the man, who was so obsessed with his body that he wanted to have sex with him every day, was holding back from coming to see him.
Because he was a little distracted, Tao Yuan almost lost the Go game. Fortunately, when he looked up, he saw the opponent's excited eyes. After coming to his senses, he quickly turned the situation around and won.
"I deliberately pushed you to this point, but you still can't beat me. Where do you get the courage to threaten me?" Tao Yuan looked at his opponent with contempt on his face. "Your level of aggressiveness is far superior to your Go skills. If I were your age and still at your level, I'd be so ashamed I wouldn't even be able to participate in the competition, let alone humiliate my opponent before the match."
Tao Yuan's opponent was a middle-aged man wearing glasses. Before the game started, he deliberately tried to provoke Tao Yuan in the backstage rest area, hoping that he would lose the game because he could not keep calm.
This is not the first time he has done this kind of thing, so this person's reputation is actually not very good. Now that he is being humiliated by Tao Yuan in public, he can only hold his breath and cannot refute.
Tao Yuan was in a bad mood. Since this person dared to provoke him, he would not have an easy time. The Go enthusiasts who were watching the live broadcast felt very relieved when they saw the man being humiliated.
There were a bunch of reporters waiting for interviews outside, but Tao Yuan refused to accept them and left the competition venue directly with Li Zaiqi.
Li Zaiqi came to accompany him to the competition. Seeing that Tao Yuan seemed to be in a bad mood, he said, "Are you too tired from painting recently? You should make sure to rest more and combine work and rest."
"I understand, teacher. I'll go back first." Tao Yuan said, then opened the door and got out of the car.
