Chapter 129
The two of them tied the same colorful rope, feeling the soft June breeze as they walked along the tree-lined path. Before they knew it, they had reached the parking lot. Jiang Nuo then remembered, "I forgot. Gu Xin hasn't arrived yet. We should wait for him."
"What are we waiting for him for?" Gu Jiangkuo said, "He has hands and feet. Let's go home first."
Jiang Nuo still felt it was a shame to abandon his guests. "How will he get home? Where will he stay?"
"Just take a taxi," Gu Jiangkuo said nonchalantly. "Don't worry about him. He's staying at the hotel and just had to come along anyway. And it's not for me. Gu Xin has his own things to do."
Even without explaining it, Jiang Nuo knew why Gu Xin did that.
Gu Xin was originally one of the top protagonists of this world, while Rong Yi was the bottom protagonist of this world. To be honest, in the original novel, Rong Yi relied on several men to win all the way, and finally relied on a life-and-death love affair with Gu Xin to achieve financial freedom. Even Jiang Nuo could not imagine that he was so outstanding in his student days. With such ability, he could go to a good university and have no worries about finding a good job. Why did he have to rely on men?
But after getting along with Rong Yi, Jiang Nuo felt that this child was very motivated and did not seem like a loser who only relied on others.
.
Since he didn't go home last weekend, Gu Jiangkuo decided to make up for the time he spent with Jiang Nuo. "I'll leave after the Dragon Boat Festival."
As he said this, Gu Jiangkuo had already climbed onto Mr. Jiang's bed with familiarity, and Jiang Nuo pushed his face with his palm, "Shut up! ...Gu Dajiang, it's broad daylight."
"Jiang Xiaomi isn't back again. He did so well on the test, so he must be out playing with his classmates. He might not even be back for dinner," Gu Jiangkuo argued. "Aunt Mei won't come up to disturb us. Nuonuo, are you annoyed that I haven't showered yet?"
"..." Jiang Nuo still pressed his face tightly, "Get off, you're too heavy..."
Gu Jiangkuo laughed: "You look like you are just using your paws to push your owner's kitten."
Young Master Jiang realized belatedly that the posture was indeed very similar. He felt a little embarrassed and withdrew his hand, but Gu Jiangkuo took the opportunity to press him down.
The hot breath hits my ear, and I can feel the firm and thick chest muscles rising and falling through the thin summer clothes. This heavy skin contact actually gives me a sense of solid happiness and is not annoying at all.
Gu Jiangkuo whispered seductively in his ear, "Just hug you, nothing else. I haven't seen you for over a week, I miss you so much."
Jiang Nuo discovered that even though he was holding him like this, he was still quietly supporting himself with his elbows and didn't put his entire body weight on him. His strength was controlled between "making it impossible for him to escape" and "not crushing him to death." Young Master Jiang simply gave up struggling and chatted with him casually: "Gu Dajiang, did you come back specially for the Dragon Boat Festival?"
Gu Jiangkuo was embarrassed to admit that he was jealous of a high school kid. He had come back specifically for the parents' meeting, so he just went along with the conversation and said, "Yeah."
Jiang Nuo laughed and said, "Casinos in Lion City also celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival?"
"The casino is open all year round, but if you have time to pay attention to me during your vacation, I'll come back." Gu Jiangkuo kept sniffing Young Master Jiang's neck and shoulders like a cat, making Jiang Nuo so itchy that he shrank his neck, laughing and bristling: "Don't move! You said you would just hold me!"
.
Two hours later, Gu Jiangkuo was practically picking his teeth with a toothpick, his whole body radiating the satisfaction of having eaten and drunk his fill. He hugged Jiang Nuo and gave her a stern lecture, "Never believe a man's nonsense when he says, 'I'll just do nothing.'"
President Jiang really didn't have the energy to argue with him: "...Shut up."
Gu Jiangkuo opened up his mouth and started talking non-stop, "Nuonuo, the Gu Group's shares will be distributed dividends next month. I filled in your account. This is the first payment I made to the family. As for those assets that are not convenient for others to check now, wait..."
"What?" Jiang Nuo jumped up from his arms. Because the movement was too large, it hurt, and he couldn't help but frown and hiss. But it didn't stop him from asking, "Why put it in my account?"
Gu Jiangkuo stroked his boyfriend's smooth back like smooth hair: "Isn't this a matter of course? What's mine is yours, isn't it? Dividends aren't shares, so there aren't many."
That's Gu Group's shares! How could it not be that much?
Jiang Nuo blurted out: "I don't want it!"
Gu Jiangkuo: "Why?"
"So much money—" Jiang Nuo was stuck. Looking at Gu Jiangkuo's eyes widened with excitement, he suddenly felt guilty. In the end, he didn't say his true thoughts. He made an excuse and said, "Transfer it to my account. Chairman Gu will have some ideas."
Sure enough, Gu Jiangkuo relaxed. "It's my money if you give it to me. How I deal with it is my business."
"But you've only got 2% of the shares now. Don't you want more? Don't you want to take back the portion that originally belonged to your grandmother and your father? Spending a huge amount of money to give me an island is already eye-catching enough," Mr. Jiang coaxed. "Don't let Mr. Gu, or even the Gu family, get hold of you. You don't need to rush to pay the 'household allowance'."
After Jiang Nuo repeatedly presented facts and reasoned with him, Gu Jiangkuo finally gave in and reluctantly compromised: "Okay then."
Then he deliberately rubbed his stubble on Jiang Nuo's face and stood up: "I'm going to take a shower, do you want to come with me?"
Having suffered too many losses, Jiang Nuo didn't fall for his tricks. "No, I'm tired. I want to lie down for a while."
"Okay then. If you're too lazy to move, I'll wash and wipe it for you."
"Hmm... Let's talk about it later."
Gu Jiangkuo got up, put on his slippers casually, and walked towards the bathroom. Jiang Nuo only glanced at his strong and powerful long legs and his narrow waist that showed a sense of strength, then covered herself with the quilt again.
Gu Dajiang really is... so unruly in appearance.
Young Master Jiang felt that he was a little deeply involved in this matter. He really wanted to stay with Gu Jiangkuo until they grew old together. However, he didn't dare to accept the other party's "paying salary" or other "promise-like" actions. Due to his previous failed relationships, Jiang Nuo didn't dare to believe in the word "forever".
Is there anything in this world that is eternal and unchanging?
Of course, he was unwilling to tell the truth and hurt Gu Jiangkuo's heart. At least he could feel that at this moment, both of them were sincere and passionate.
Perhaps only a long period of time can prove the so-called steadfastness, so why add to the troubles?
Let’s drink while we have wine.
Thinking of this, Young Master Jiang actually abandoned his ostrich mentality, crawled out of the bed, and walked towards the bathroom with some unsteady steps. But through the mist, he could see Mr. Gu Dajiang's shining eyes. Mr. Gu's eyes were not big, but his eyes were sharp and clear, like a brilliant and flowing galaxy, or like a beast seeing its well-behaved prey.
"Nuannuo..."
"Wash it for me." Young Master Jiang ordered.
.
I thought I could only see Gu Xin on the return flight, but I didn't expect to be called by Gu Xin the next day. Jiang Nuo was also woken up in a daze, only to hear Gu Jiangkuo's three consecutive rejections: "What do you think? No, I won't go. I don't have time to play with you kids."
"What's wrong?" Jiang Nuo asked.
"Nothing." Mr. Gu said without revealing a word, "Let's go back to sleep."
Jiang Nuo also understood the subtle relationship between the brothers, but since he was awake, he touched his watch, checked the time, and yawned, saying, "No need to sleep. I have things to do today."
"I'm back. Do you have anything else to do?" Gu Jiangkuo hugged him clingingly.
President Jiang laughed. "I can't possibly say 'The Emperor won't hold court again' just because you're back, can I? The project is at a critical stage, and I can't rest even on holiday. I'm scheduled to go to the construction site today. Let go, my beloved."
Concubine Gu pestered him for a long time before 'Your Majesty' finally got away to wash up. When he was done, he was going downstairs while clicking his watch when he heard Jiang Xiaomi's voice on the phone from a distance: "Brother Gu is back! My brother can't get up so early... Hey, my brother's body is so weak, he must be able to handle it. Wait, someone is coming!"
"Brother! Are you awake? So early!"
Because Jiang Xiaomi did well in the exam, Jiang Nuo's tolerance for him increased dramatically. To the point where he didn't have the urge to kill his brother, he just gritted his teeth and asked, "What's the matter?"
Jiang Xiaomi sensed a subtle murderous aura and said timidly, "School is on holiday today, and Rong Yi invited us to go out and play. Oh, and there's also Brother Gu's younger brother. Do you want to come along?"
