Chapter 20
20
Serving the king is like living with a tiger, and the assistant is walking on thin ice.
Arriving at the monitoring room, two police officers were already standing there, reviewing the surveillance footage. The assistant approached to ask, and one of the officers said, "We've already seen who started it. Look, right here."
The surveillance video was called back and it was seen that Gao Fengming was sitting alone in the corner of the box, drinking wine with his head tilted back. There were many wine bottles piled on the table next to him and he was obviously a little drunk.
Then someone in the box walked up to him and said something. Gao Fengming suddenly threw the cup, stood up and punched him. The person being punched was not a pushover either, and they started to wrestle.
It was Gao Fengming who took action first.
The police officer said, "Your brother was the first to attack and even knocked out a tooth. If the other party persists, your brother will be detained."
The assistant frowned and was about to ask if they could settle the matter privately when Gao Bochong said, "Can you hear what that person said?"
The police officer nodded, called up the audio, and after amplifying the sound, he could faintly hear the man's words: "...you are so self-indulgent...Brother Jiang has never liked you...it's so funny."
Gao Bochong said calmly, "Is this considered a deliberate provocation?"
The police officers looked at each other.
Originally, if Gao Fengming had taken action first, he would have been at a disadvantage, but now that the other party was provoking trouble, the outcome would be different.
The police officer made a judgment and left the monitoring room. The assistant followed him out without Gao Bochong's instructions.
Gao Bochong was the only one left in the monitoring room.
The walls were covered with screens, their cold blue lights flickering softly. Gao Bochong leaned forward slightly, manipulated the mouse, and switched the camera to the restroom door half an hour ago.
This club charges a high fee, and the restrooms are also renovated in a very unique way. There are two doors on the left and right to separate men and women. The washbasin in the middle has gurgling water and is hidden among tall potted green plants.
The camera's angle was slightly off, just enough to capture Wang Zhi's Prussian blue against the emerald green of the screen. It was as rich and vibrant as a plump Antarctic ice crystal, clear and sweet. Wang Zhi's arms were long and white, and as he bent to wash his fingertips, a smooth curve curved through his waist, the bones of his back shaped like jade.
Gao Bochong stared at the screen quietly for half a minute, then slowly pressed the fast-forward button. After Jiang Xubai came out, he returned the speed to normal.
Then there was a conversation between the two of them, talking about old times.
Gao Bochong was not very interested. He just frowned and wondered why Wang Zhi handed the soap to Jiang Xubai.
Jiang Xubai can’t take it himself?
He had already had surgery and his vision was close to normal, so why did he keep pretending in front of Wang Zhi? And Wang Zhi was stupid enough to fall for it and take care of him without hesitation.
The more Gao Bochong thought about it, the more unhappy he felt.
Wang Zhi never handed her anything. When he gave her flowers, he placed them on the table, as if he was afraid that they would touch her hands.
The cold blue light reflected Gao Bochong's unfathomable expression. On the screen, Wang Zhi smiled gently at Jiang Xubai, saying that he was lucky to have such a face and to get Gao Fengming.
There was a halo on his brows and eyes, not the declaration of a winner, but the deep love of a martyr who refused to repent until death.
Is it true?
Or... a deliberate and contrived performance.
Gao Bochong looked at Wang Zhi with the most critical and harsh eyes, but he could not find any trace of pretense. It was as if those words were genuine and came from the heart.
sincere?
Gao Bochong had seen Wang Zhi's performances. Even though Gao Bochong was just an outsider, he could see that Wang Zhi's acting was stiff.
If Wang Zhi's acting skills had not suddenly improved by leaps and bounds, it would mean that Wang Zhi was not acting.
He really loves Gao Fengming.
In every screen, Wang Zhi was smiling, his eyes were like stars, his lips were soft and as red as spring flowers.
He fell in love.
Fall in love with Gao Fengming.

The air conditioning in the box was turned up too high, and Wang Zhi felt a little cold, but looking at Gao Fengming's expression, he continued to put on a worried face: "Brother, does it still hurt?"
Gao Fengming had a bruise on the side of his face and a piece of paper stuck in his nostril. He looked very embarrassed. Hearing this, he spoke in a bad tone and said in a muffled voice: "What do you think?"
You got beaten up in a fight, why are you angry at him?
Wang Zhi rolled his eyes in his heart, somewhat blaming the man who had fought with Gao Fengming——
Why did Gao Fengming's left nostril bleed? What about the right one?
Wang Zhi applied medicine a little too hard on Gao Fengming, and Gao Fengming hissed.
Someone happened to come in and shouted, "Feng Ming."
Wang Zhi naturally put down his hand and said obediently, "Brother, is it Big Brother's assistant calling you?"
Gao Fengming looked over when he heard the voice and saw that it was indeed Gao Bochong's assistant. He quickly stood up and went over. The assistant said something to him, and his face turned pale and blue. After a while, he came back and said to Wang Zhi, "Let's go."
Wang Zhi was a little concerned: "How is it?"
If Gao Fengming was really arrested, would I still have to visit him in prison?
Gao Fengming said: "We settled it privately."
"Ah." Wang Zhihuo breathed a sigh of relief—he didn't want to go to the police station to visit the prisoner. "That's great, brother. The police comrades really know that you were set up!"
The relief in his tone was so strong that it seemed as if he had been worried about Gao Fengming.
A setup? The bias is so unreasonable.
Gao Fengming suddenly stopped, and Wang Zhi followed his gaze and saw Gao Bochong standing in front of the door, half of his face submerged in the shadows, with the light behind him, so it was impossible to tell the emotion on his face.
Gao Fengming was a little nervous: "Brother."
Gao Bochong said calmly, "Let's talk about it when we get back."
You always have to save some face for Wang Zhi.
The Rolls-Royce Phantom slowly drove over, and Wang Zhi's attention was immediately drawn to it. He looked at the gleaming black painted car surface, which reflected star-like light under the light in front of the door.
Wang Zhi's eyes also sparkled.
This was the most beautiful meal ticket... no, a car he had ever seen.
The car door was already open and Gao Bochong got in. Wang Zhi was very sensible and planned to sit in the passenger seat, but was stopped by Gao Fengming.
Wang Zhi didn't understand what was going on. He looked up and met Gao Fengming's gaze, and somehow understood Gao Fengming's emotions.
He didn't dare sit in the back seat with Gao Bochong.
Wang Zhi: ...
He doesn't dare!
Wang Zhi pretended not to understand Gao Fengming's thoughts and played dumb as he stood with him. The two of them stared blankly at the Rolls-Royce. Suddenly, Gao Bochong got out and sat in the passenger seat with a cold expression, "Get in."
Wang Zhi and Gao Fengming both felt relieved. They got into the car quickly and sat in the back seat. Because they were both very afraid of Gao Bochong, their movements were very coordinated.
Gao Bochong glanced indifferently in the rearview mirror and looked away: "Drive."
