The next morning, sunlight streamed into the room through the gaps in the curtains. Xie Qi slowly woke from his sleep. He subconsciously reached out and groped toward his side. However, when his hand touched the bed, he only felt a cold, empty space.
Xie Qi was startled, and all his sleepiness was gone in an instant. He sat up abruptly and looked around anxiously. However, apart from himself, there was no one else in the room. Even Gu Ze'an's clothes were gone, and the whole room seemed particularly deserted.
At this moment, Xie Qi's eyes fell on the bedside table. There was a set of neatly folded new clothes, and on top of the clothes, a bank card and a piece of paper lay quietly.
Seeing this, Xie Qi quickly moved his body and reached out to pick up the note. His eyes were fixed on the handwriting on the note, and clear lines of text came into view.
"There's 500,000 yuan in the card. After paying your tuition, you can keep the rest. I've already paid the penalty for breach of contract. Don't work in that kind of place again..."
Xie Qi's brow furrowed. He wondered to himself: Could it be that Gu Ze'an wanted to draw a line between him and himself? At this thought, an inexplicable sense of loss welled up in his heart, but he quickly suppressed it.
The more Xie Qi thought about it, the more he felt that it was not possible. He knew the difference between short-term and long-term gigolos, not to mention that he was being gigoloed by his wife.
Xie Qi slowly got out of bed, stretched, and then slowly walked into the bathroom. Hot water poured from the shower head, hitting his skin, bringing waves of comfort and relaxation. After a thorough wash, Xie Qi finally left the bathroom.
At this time, he put on the clothes that Gu Ze'an had prepared for him, and he looked refreshed. Then, he took a big step and left the hotel.
Relying on the original owner's memory, Xie Qi successfully found the rental house. When he pushed open the door, the scene before him made him frown.
This rental house was shockingly small, not even as big as the bathroom in the hotel I had just left! There was only one bed in the house, which took up almost the entire space.
Xie Qi shook his head helplessly, but still began to tidy up the room. He made the bed and put away some documents. After doing this, he paid the rent he owed without hesitation and checked out.
Before moving into Gu Ze'an's home, Xie Qi decided to stay at the school temporarily. So, he hurried back to the school with his simple luggage.
Upon arriving at the school, Xie Qi first paid his long-overdue tuition. After completing this task, he immediately went to find his instructor to return the money he had borrowed from him.
During the conversation with his mentor, Xie Qi learned that his mentor's lover had fallen seriously ill half a month ago. Without saying a word, Xie Qi immediately took out his bank card and lent all the remaining money in it to his mentor.
Just like that, in just one day, Xie Qi had only two hundred yuan left.
However, facing such a dire financial situation, Xie Qi had already anticipated it. It's better to be poor, because being poor means you can live off others.
Since that day, Xie Qi has been keeping a close eye on Gu Ze'an's whereabouts. Hard work pays off, and after a long wait, he finally found a perfect opportunity.
That day, the sky was covered with thick dark clouds, and heavy rain poured down. The whole world seemed to be immersed in a wet chaos.
Xie Qi held a large bouquet of gorgeous flowers in his hands, his eyes fixed on a luxury car that was slowly approaching and about to stop not far ahead.
Although the car driver noticed a figure running in front and began to slow down gradually, he was ultimately unable to completely avoid the accident.
The corner of the car lightly scraped Xie Qi's calf. With a burst of pain, Xie Qi lost his balance and fell heavily in front of the car.
Gu Ze'an, on the other hand, had been unable to calm down deep down since parting with Xie Qi that day. He found it increasingly difficult to concentrate on daily affairs, his thoughts always drifting involuntarily to that figure.
Even so, he still stubbornly believed that this was just the result of the omega's instinctive dependence on the alpha, and tried to use this reason to explain his abnormal behavior.
But at this moment, he didn't expect to see Xie Qi again, and this time he was knocked to the ground by his car accidentally.
Gu Ze'an's heart suddenly tightened. Without thinking too much, he quickly opened the car door and got out in a hurry.
Seeing this, the driver sitting in the driving seat quickly picked up the umbrella beside him, opened it quickly, and walked quickly to Gu Ze'an, carefully holding it up to shield him from the rain.
Gu Ze'an slowly approached the front of the car with slightly heavy steps. When he finally got close, his eyes first fell on Xie Qi, who was squatting on the ground, picking flowers one by one.
Then, his gaze shifted to the tattered wooden sign lying on the ground not far away, on which were neatly written a few large characters: "Three bundles for ten yuan."
Seeing this scene, Gu Ze'an frowned involuntarily, thinking about something in his heart.
At this moment, Xie Qi also noticed someone approaching. So, he raised his head and looked at the person in front of him. However, when he saw that it was Gu Ze'an, he seemed to be frozen in time, and stood there in a daze.
After a long while, he finally woke up from his dream. His voice seemed to tremble slightly due to the chill of the rain, and he asked timidly, "Sir... Sir, why are you here?"
