Chapter 58
58
His fingers turned cold in an instant. Wang Zhi looked at him, his fingertips twitching slightly uncontrollably.
The man was still talking, his mouth opening and closing, but Wang Zhi couldn't hear what he was saying. He could only hear a buzzing sound, which sounded like the chirping of cicadas, ringing now and in the summer more than ten years ago.
That summer was very hot, with a heat wave rolling in. Not long before the college entrance examination, the Ministry of Education and the Meteorological Bureau would carry out artificial rainfall in three days. However, the weather became increasingly dull in the few days before the rainfall.
Water vapor condensed in the air, and when he breathed, what he inhaled seemed to have turned into solidified liquid. Wang Zhi would always remember that day when he hurried out of the alley with a stack of papers in his arms. He had good grades, and many people were willing to spend money to buy his notes and papers. He simply printed them out, selling them for five yuan each, and they sold very well.
But recently, someone complained about him, saying that he was disrupting school discipline. The teacher felt sorry for him and only criticized him superficially and asked him to keep a low profile. He didn't want to cause trouble for the teacher, so he changed the printing and consignment location to outside the school.
Everything went smoothly. He put the test paper in the store and left. The midday sun was so strong that it cast illusory shadows on the asphalt road. Wang Zhi's forehead was sweating, but he was in a good mood.
The college entrance examination is coming soon.
For others, the Gaokao might be a stressful experience, but for him, it felt like a path that could change his destiny. His teachers had already assured him that if he could get into the top two universities, not only would his tuition and fees be waived, but he would also receive financial support from local entrepreneurs to help him pay for his mother's medical expenses.
It’s great, the future life is shining just by thinking about it.
Wang Zhi raised the corner of his lips, but saw a tall figure standing in front of him.
Wang Zhi frowned slightly, feeling unlucky.
How did I meet him?
But the man walked over and said in a frivolous tone, "Isn't this our Tanhua? How come someone ran out in the middle of the day?"
Wang Zhi glanced at him calmly: "It has nothing to do with you."
The man tutted and said unhappily, "Wang Zhi, why are you pretending? Don't think I don't know that you're just out here selling those crappy test papers of yours."
Wang Zhi said, "Don't think I don't know who complained to the teacher about me."
The man was stunned for a moment, as if he had not expected Wang Zhi to know about this. Wang Zhi took advantage of his moment of distraction to walk past him, but he suddenly reached out and grabbed Wang Zhi's hand fiercely: "What good does it do if he knows? Wang Zhi, you are so poor that you have to sell these things, why are you still showing off in front of me?"
His grip hurt Wang Zhi, but Wang Zhi didn't show it at all. He just looked at him and said calmly, "Let me go. Teacher Xu said that if you harass me again, your parents will take you home."
This irritated the man, and his grip tightened again, cracking his wrist bones. Wang Zhi finally frowned, and the man laughed viciously, "Stop threatening me with my parents. Believe it or not, I'm going to fuck you to death sooner or later."
Wang Zhi said: "I am not gay."
"You!" The man blushed. "Me neither! Do you think I like you? You...you're disgusting!"
He hurriedly pushed Wang Zhi away. Wang Zhi flexed his wrist and smiled slightly: "Not the best. Kang Cheng, please stay away from me."
…So it was him.
Kangcheng.
Time flies and never looks back, but the memories of the past are still clear.
The face of the boy more than ten years ago overlapped with the face of the man more than ten years later, and it seemed to have turned into a miserable and crying face. Wang Zhi could not remember how he fell into the water. He only remembered that when he saw it, he did not hesitate or have any complicated psychological activities, but just jumped in.
The water was deep, and even on such a summer day, it was freezing cold. The boy had heavy and broad bones, and Wang Zhi dragged him like a piece of sunken wood. For a moment, Wang Zhi thought he would sink too, but he finally pulled him up.
He had completely lost the arrogance he had when he was pulling Wang Zhi and making threats. He just held Wang Zhi's hand tremblingly, not daring to let go.
The man in front of him was still chattering, and Wang Zhi heard him say: "...Wang Zhi and I are close friends. We were together for three years in high school."
Best buddies?
He was clearly a scumbag who had been harassing and bullying me for three years.
His fingers were suddenly held tightly by someone, and the warm body temperature warmed Wang Zhi's cold palms and pulled him out of his memories.
He heard Gao Bochong say, "I am Wang Zhi's husband. He doesn't seem to have mentioned you."
"Wang Zhi's husband?!" Kang Cheng asked in shock, "Didn't he say he wasn't gay?!"
Gao Bochong said calmly, "He always says this to people he doesn't like."
Wang Zhi suddenly wanted to laugh.
Gao Bochong is really good at making people angry.
Sure enough, even after so much time had passed, Kang Cheng still couldn't keep his composure. His face suddenly darkened: "What do you mean? He lied to me?"
Gao Bochong smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. Kang doesn't know much about my wife."
Wang Zhi finally laughed out loud.
He smiled and both of them looked over. Kang Cheng had a shocked look on his face, as if to say, "How could you lie to me?"
Wang Zhi looked at him with interest for a while, and confirmed that he seemed to really think that he had deceived him. Suddenly, he felt very strange.
I actually spent three years battling wits and courage with this idiot in high school?
Wang Zhi took Gao Bochong's arm and gently pulled it, signaling him to step back. Gao Bochong looked down at Wang Zhi, raised his eyebrows, but still obediently took a few steps back.
Wang Zhi flexed his wrist and smiled at Kang Cheng.
He is completely different now than he was before.
Her features were still as beautiful and clear as before, but her aura was completely different, like a jade statue covered in dust, which had finally been carefully cleaned of dust, revealing all her beauty. Even wearing the simplest windbreaker and shirt, she was still radiant and stunning enough to astonish everyone.
When he wasn't smiling, his eyes were cold, but when he smiled, soft ripples appeared in his dark eyes.
Kang Cheng's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he stared at Wang Zhi walking towards him in amazement, his expression almost obsessed.
And the next moment, Wang Zhi raised his hand and punched him hard.
"Idiot." Wang Zhi looked at Kang Cheng, who had been knocked to the ground by him, and kicked him hard. "I've wanted to beat you up for a long time."
When Kang Cheng was hit by him, the first thing he felt was not pain, but a clear and sweet scent, followed by a pungent stinging sensation when Wang Zhi's cold and soft hand touched his skin.
In that atmosphere, Kang Cheng looked at Wang Zhi stupidly. After a while, he suddenly reacted and got up angrily: "You dare to hit me..."
Before he could finish his words, several tall men came up, covered his mouth, and pulled him aside. Wang Zhi looked at them curiously and asked Gao Bochong, "Who are these people?"
Gao Bochong replied, "Bodyguard."
Wang Zhi exclaimed, "Wow!" and said flatteringly, "Does this count as an incognito visit?"
Gao Bochong said: "It's a pity that they couldn't drag him away and give him fifty lashes."
Wang Zhi was amused by him, but he breathed a sigh of relief: "It turns out it's so simple."
It only takes one punch to knock him down.
But when I was in high school, I found it so difficult. I was so sad that I couldn't sleep when I thought about getting up tomorrow and having to face such undisguised malice.
Even though he later used his intelligence to deal with Kang Cheng and made Kang Cheng dare not bully him openly anymore, the pressure still followed him like a shadow, casting a shadow on his high school life which should have been easy.
Gao Bochong looked at his expression and didn't ask any further questions. He just said, "If you need to, it's not impossible to fight."
Wang Zhi glanced at Gao Bochong and asked, "Really?"
Gao Bochong said, "Your husband still has some influence."
Wang Zhi chuckled softly and leaned her head on Gao Bochong's shoulder: "Forget it, a person like that is not worth my husband using his power for."
Gao Bochong said, "Are you still in a bad mood?"
“No…”
Gao Bochong said: "You told your husband a lot about the past today. In exchange, your husband will also tell you about his past."
Wang Zhi suddenly became interested: "What's the matter?"
He thought Gao Bochong would talk about his past romances, but Gao Bochong said, "I wasn't very old when my mother died."
Wang Zhi was startled and subconsciously turned to look at Gao Bochong. Gao Bochong raised his lips and hugged him, continuing, "My parents were in a free love relationship - in their environment, such relationships were rare, and most marriages were arranged. My mother came from a wealthy family and was an only child. She was raised in a pampered way. She fell in love with my father and married him with a large dowry. My father swore to heaven that he would love my mother forever and treat her well."
Unfortunately, the vows changed every day, the love disappeared, and only a mess of marriage was left.
"I've never believed in love. I think love is just a passing fancy that will fade away with time. That's why I never told you I love you. In my heart, quantifying feelings into benefits is more unbreakable."
Wang Zhi touched Gao Bochong's arm, wanting to comfort him, but he said, "But now, I understand how my mother felt back then. It turns out love is such a beautiful thing. As long as I'm with you for one day, I'll be happy for one day."
"Zhizhi..." he said softly, "I love you. Thank you for letting me know about your past and for letting me participate in your life."
Wang Zhi's heart melted into a pool of spring water at his words.
"Thank you too..." Although a little embarrassed, Wang Zhi still said, "Thank you for being my husband. I don't think there is anyone more suitable for me than you."
This is the most pleasant confession in the world.
The wind was cold, blowing through the small town and falling between them. Their hands were tightly clasped, and they finally gave their love to each other.
This is the first heartbeat in my life. I don’t know where it comes from, but it is like a prairie fire. When I discover it, it has already burned all over the field.
Gao Bochong suddenly said, "I'll get off work early every day to be with you. Honey, how about we move into your house?"
Wang Zhi was a little surprised: "Why?"
"If I make you angry like this, you can kick me out of the house."
Wang Zhi wanted to laugh but held it back, snorted and said, "Can't you please not make me angry?"
Gao Bochong glanced at him with a subtle look in his eyes.
Wang Zhi didn't understand what he meant, and thought that Gao Bo Chong was really good at talking about love. Had he really never been in love before?
Are big guys more talented than others when it comes to love?
But at night, Wang Zhi understood the look in Gao Bochong's eyes——
There was no way he wasn't making himself angry!
Wang Zhi was crying so hard that her face was covered with tears. Her legs were stretched to the sides, almost touching her shoulders. Wang Zhi felt like she was about to cramp, but she didn't care about that at all. She could only push Gao Bochong's lower abdomen with both hands, trying to push him away: "You...you've had enough?"
"Not enough." Gao Bochong's forehead was covered with sweat, and his cold eyes were now surprisingly hot. When he stared at Wang Zhi, Wang Zhi always felt that he was being bitten into his throat bit by bit. "Baby, for your husband, bear it a little longer."
"I can't stand it anymore!" Wang Zhi couldn't stand the collision anymore and slapped Gao Bochong in the face while crying, "Gao Bochong, you don't love me at all, you just want to kill me!"
He hit her hard, with a "snap" sound, but Gao Bochong didn't care. He tilted his head and bit Wang Zhi's finger, slowly grinding it with his teeth: "Next time you want to hit someone, tell me, my wife, you are not allowed to reward those men anymore."
Wang Zhi couldn't hear what he was saying at all. He only felt that in his mind, crackling fireworks were exploding all over the sky. Wang Zhi's eyes were vacant, and he lay there limply, his chest heaving violently.
Gao Bochong leaned over viciously and whispered in his ear, "Pressing on you now feels like pressing on cotton. Baby, you're so soft."
Wang Zhi subconsciously retorted: "...you...you are the weak one."
Gao Bochong said: "I'm sorry, wife. I will change."
ah?
Wang Zhi wondered at a loss, how to change it?
Then, you will know how much Gao Bochong is able to admit his mistakes and correct them.
