Chapter 205 Confrontation (Two in One)
The ultimate villain in the original book is named Qi Feng. Others' three generations are engaged in business, while his three generations are engaged in illegal and criminal activities. His great-grandfathers were traitors, and his generation has challenged human laws to the limit.
In order to monopolize the domestic drug trafficking market, Qi Feng often came back in person to deal with affairs or people at risk. His funding of Zhou Gu was only to lower the official vigilance, gain a good reputation, and thus obtain legal citizenship.
Except for a few important members in the organization, those who knew his identity and appearance were either won over or already buried.
Qi Feng even has a respectable identity in the country, the CEO of a listed company.
As the person who has been with Qi Feng the longest, Zhou Gu is often exposed to sensual pleasures and knows some gambling methods very well, so cheating is a piece of cake for him.
With his hand speed, he never expected that he would be exposed in public.
Zhou Gu laughed.
"I knew you couldn't beat us so many times!" Tian Ruan said angrily.
Zhou Gu spread his hands, "Winning is winning, does it matter what means you use to win?"
Zhou Gu, who had been immersed in Qi Feng's mind and body, was no longer the simple, passionate, and literary and artistic Zhou Gu. He had become cunning, sophisticated, and good at disguise.
Just like the second Qi Feng.
Tian Ruan: "Of course it's important. If you beat us fair and square, I will admire you. If you cheat, I will despise you."
Zhou Gu threw the playing cards on the table and smiled nonchalantly: "Who are you? Why do I need your admiration or contempt?"
“…”
Lu Qiuyan flexed his wrists, his fingers clicking. "Indeed, winning is winning, losing is losing."
Zhou Gu looked at his movements and asked, "You want to hit me?"
Wang Weiqi quickly stepped forward to stop him, "Road Bully, how about this, I give you the money I lost, and you let him go." After saying that, he winked at Zhou Gu.
Zhou Gu stood up slowly. He was thin, about the same height as Tian Ruan. He didn't feel anything when he sat down. When he stood up, he suddenly looked at the two cards in Yu Shang's hand. He looked up and found that the boy was really tall. He smiled and said, "You look a bit like my lover."
Yu Shang did not answer, but tore up the two royal cards and threw them into the trash can.
Zhou Gu shrugged, "You guys continue playing, I'll excuse me."
Tian Ruan stared at Zhou Gu's back as if he wanted to stare a hole in him, but then he looked a little pitiful.
"Although he is a con man, he is also trying to help me." Wang Weiqi said loyally, "Don't blame him."
Tian Ruan: "I don't blame him, I blame him for being an adulterer."
Wang Weiqi: "??? How do you know she has an adulterer?"
Tian Ruan started talking nonsense again: "Look at how slowly he walks, and when he sits down, he pushes his butt to one side, and his mouth is pouty. If he doesn't have pouty lips, he must have been kissed. The only person who can kiss a man into having pouty lips is another man."
After the words were spoken, silence fell all around.
Lu Qiuyan said: "You really do understand."
Tian Ruan: “…”
Wang Weiqi gave a thumbs up, "So why do you blame the adulterer?"
Tian Ruan: "As the saying goes, like father, like son. If they are not from the same family, they will not marry. If he is like this, his adulterer must be even more abominable."
Yu Shang said calmly: "If you do this, others will think my father is hateful."
Tian Ruan: "...Are you still my good son?"
The waiter came over and politely asked Yu Shang, "Sir, would you like something to drink?"
Yu Shang: "Four cups of the lowest alcohol sweet wine will do."
"yes."
Wang Weiqi smacked his lips for a while, "That's not right, isn't it my treat?"
Yu Shang sat on the sofa with an air of being the master of the house, and said, "This kind of place is full of good and bad people, and at night it's even more chaotic. Let's finish this cup and go back."
“Stop it.” Wang Weiqi wailed, “President, you can choose not to play, but don’t hinder us from playing.”
Yu Shang looked at him coldly.
Wang Weiqi was so cold that he began to flatter: "Mr. President is extremely smart, handsome, and graceful. Of course, he is incompatible with such a vulgar entertainment venue. How about this, you finish this glass of wine and leave first, and we will come back after dancing."
Yu Shang said coldly: "I am not here for you, but for these two people."
Wang Weiqi's dark face remained a single color under the colorful lights. He opened his eyes wide and asked, "Am I not worthy of your worry? My fighting power is the lowest!"
Yu Shang: “…”
Tian Ruan and Lu Qiuyan whispered loudly: "I didn't expect that Wang Weiqi, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, would have improper thoughts about Yu Shang."
Lu Qiuyan: "Is there anyone in the student union who hasn't been favored by him?"
Tian Ruan: "Not much, it turns out that Wang Weiqi is the heartthrob?"
Wang Weiqi: "...Can you guys stop making fun of me? I can't even flatter you."
When the drinks came, Yu Shang took a sip with a blank expression and said, "At the latest, we have to go back after 9:30."
Tian Ruan glanced at his cell phone and saw that there were less than four hours left until half past nine. He opened WeChat and skillfully typed in the top input box: Mr. Yu, are you home?
After a while, Yu Jingmo replied: Overtime.
Tian Ruan: What time will you be back?
Yu Jingmo: About nine o’clock.
Tian Ruan: I'm drunk/Picture
Yu Jingmo: I’ll pick you up after get off work.
Tian Ruan: Good/Rose
He needed to tell Yu Jingmo about the big villain as soon as possible and discuss with him how to deal with it. It certainly wouldn't work if he did it alone. If he acts rashly, he will most likely be doomed.
Tian Ruan had a hunch that the big villain's early appearance might be for the purpose of killing him.
In the original book, "Tian Yuan" died after the protagonists took the college entrance examination. It was a fatal disaster. Originally, Tian Ruan thought that the crisis around him had been resolved, and all those who could compete with Yu Jingmo and put him to death were cannon fodder. But it turns out he was waiting here.
When I have something on my mind, going clubbing is meaningless.
When the rhythm of the music sounded, the NPCs in the disco seemed to collectively trigger the command to dance. Men and women twisted together, waving their arms towards the ceiling like branches, yearning for freedom, but being bound in place.
Wang Weiqi howled and pounced into the crowd of hot girls. In order to highlight his uniqueness, he used the same old trick, stretching his limbs on the ground, like a fashionable black-haired dog, barking excitedly.
The hot girls screamed in fear, but soon they burst into laughter.
Yu Shang stood still like a magic needle, and Lu Qiuyan and Tian Ruan opposite him also remained motionless. Seeing Wang Weiqi like this, Yu Shang was silent for a while, "It's unsightly."
Tian Ruan quickly said, "Lu Qiuyan and I will never do the same as him."
Lu Qiuyan: "It's an eyesore."
Yu Shang finally said, "Just jump on the sidelines, don't get in the crowd."
Tian Ruan pulled Lu Qiuyan to go dancing as if he was liberated. The dance music was like thunder, bombarding everyone's eardrums. Once they reached the edge of the dance floor, no one could hear what was happening.
Tian Ruan's heart was pounding and just jumped twice, but he felt dizzy.
When he woke up, he was already in Maybach.
Tian Ruan: “…………Ah?”
Yu Jingmo's deep and gentle voice was like a cello in the night: "Awake?"
Tian Ruan sat up straight from Yu Jingmo's arms with a confused look on his face, his eyes wide open, "Wasn't I dancing? Was that a dream?"
Yu Jingmo looked at his confused look and said with a smile: "I heard from Yu Shang that you fainted after jumping for less than five seconds."
Tian Ruan: "...Am I really dancing?"
"Um."
Any good person can get fainted while dancing in a disco. Tian Ruan is probably the first one. He had never been to such exciting places since he was a child. As soon as he came into contact with them, he was like a rookie meeting a martial arts master. Before they even started fighting, he was fainted by the opponent's murderous aura.
Tian Ruan was speechless, tears welling up in her eyes: "I only jumped twice."
Yu Jingmo raised his hand and smoothed his messy hair. "It's okay. You can jump a few more times next time. Over time, you will be able to finish it."
Tian Ruan couldn't afford to lose face. He never wanted to go clubbing again. It would destroy his dignity and hurt his face. You can just jump around at home, it’s not that exciting.
He took Yu Jingmo's big hand and looked at his watch. The time pointed to a quarter past seven. It was indeed not long ago.
Yu Jingmo held his hand with his backhand and scratched his palm, "Don't be sad, I will play with you in the future."
"Why are you playing with me?" Tian Ruan complained, "You don't even have time."
"I still have time to accompany you." Yu Jingmo said, "If not, you can go to my office and dance with VR glasses. I'll have someone download a dance game."
Tian Ruan thought about it and felt it was a good idea, "Okay."
Tian Ruan, who was so weak that he fainted after jumping for five seconds, calmed down and sent a message to Lu Qiuyan only after arriving at the manor.
Tian Ruan: I'm home, you and Yu Shang can have fun slowly.
Lu Qiuyan: Are you okay?
Tian Ruan: Maybe I have a concussion. I'll be fine after resting for a while.
Lu Qiuyan: I don’t want to play anymore. The police are here to crack down on pornography.
Tian Ruan:? ? ?
Lu Qiuyan: Wang Weiqi was arrested.
Tian Ruan: Ah?
Lu Qiuyan: He was imitating the dog crawl and his clothes were stripped off in the middle of the process. The police came in at that moment and thought he was doing something exciting.
Tian Ruan: ...light a candle for him.
Tian Ruan: What about you and Yu Shang?
Lu Qiuyan: I’m going to the police station to give evidence to Wang Weiqi.
Tian Ruan: Okay.
Magical, so magical.
Tian Ruan thought that his fainting was outrageous enough, but he didn't expect that there would be such a big drama afterwards.
He suddenly felt a little relieved, holding the bird's nest in his hand, he said to Yu Jingmo: "Mr. Yu, it's a good thing I fainted, otherwise I would also be investigated for pornography."
Yu Jingmo had already learned what happened from Yu Shang, and said, "The crackdown on pornography is fake, but illegal business is real."
"?"
"The boss behind the red-light district is not simple."
"Why is it not simple?"
Yu Jingmo was well-informed and said, "There may be drug trafficking and smuggling behind the brothels."
“…”
"From your expression, you seem to know something?"
Tian Ruan was just thinking about how to start talking to Yu Jingmo about Qi Feng, and then he came.
It was obviously inappropriate to talk about this in front of the servants and housekeepers, so Tian Ruan said, "Let's go back to the room and talk after dinner."
He returned not to the bedroom, but to the study. Yu Jingmo had not finished his work, so he took it back to the study. While he was working overtime, Tian Ruan told him the plot of the original book.
"No wonder Zhou Gu appeared in the brothel, it turns out that this disco was opened by Qi Feng." Tian Ruan suddenly realized.
The original book did not introduce much about Qi Feng's industry, only one word: rich.
Yu Jingmo was typing on the keyboard. He was silent for a long time after hearing this. He rested his elbows on the table, crossed his hands vaguely, and then separated them. He thought calmly and analyzed: "Lu Qiuyan hasn't joined the army yet. Qi Feng doesn't know Lu Qiuyan now and has no feelings for him. He showed up now for other purposes."
Tian Ruan: "Drug dealers never have too much money. They have two hobbies in their lives: money and robbery."
Yu Jingmo: "If it's for money, then it's easy."
"what to do?"
"His industry is his treasure chest for making money. Although there is more than one cornucopia, we will destroy as many as we can." Yu Jingmo said, "When he is desperate, his true colors will naturally show."
Tian Ruan had doubts, "It's called a business war, but in fact it's to expose his identity as a drug dealer? Isn't this too risky?"
People who live on the edge of a knife are capable of doing anything.
"Can't you collect evidence one by one and then present it together at the end?"
Yu Jingmo chuckled: "By that time, he would have already collected the money and run away. Only when fighting can a man's blood be aroused, so that he can take greater risks to fight."
Tian Ruan: "For his few properties, it's not worth it, right?"
"If you don't try, how do you know if it's worth it?" Yu Jingmo said, "If one of my companies went bankrupt, I would be heartbroken. Not to mention a drug dealer who illegally made money."
Tian Ruan nodded, "That's right. If I lose a dime out of a hundred yuan and break the integer, I won't be able to sleep for three days."
Of course, bringing down a company doesn’t happen overnight. Tian Ruan had no other solution and could only rely on the protagonist's biggest golden finger, which was his husband Yu Jingmo. He believed that Yu Jingmo would be able to solve it.
Tian Ruan returned to his daily routine during the winter vacation, reviewing his lessons for the college entrance examination while translating a collection of poems.
By the time the IELTS results came out, his translation was also completed.
Ai Ge called him and said, "If you have time, you can meet with a few translators and discuss with each other."
Tian Ruan agreed immediately: "Okay. I'm free tomorrow."
"See you at Starbucks then."
A place like Starbucks is the most suitable for daily meetings. No matter whether you are an ordinary person, an office worker, or someone with a little money, everyone is equal in Starbucks.
The next day, Tian Ruan was almost late because Yu Jingmo had been working like crazy for several days and hadn't touched him, and he was crazy about him last night.
His butt was slapped red...
It was such a cold day, but Tian Ruan actually needed to apply some cooling ointment to cool down his butt. He felt so miserable that he could not even cry.
Yu Jingmo felt great after having sex, and he felt even more refreshed the next day. He served his wife attentively throughout the whole process, and he dressed her up from hair to toes.
"...Why are you angry? You won't be late." Yu Jingmo applied ointment on Tian Ruan, skillfully lifted up his snow-white underwear, and then put on his socks.
Tian Ruan's face turned slightly red, but it was not because she was angry, but because she was ashamed, because he had been shameless and kept asking for it last night.
And they haven't even used a condom in such a long time.
To the extent that after every incident, Yu Jingmo had to hold Tian Ruan in his arms to clean her, and while doing so, he couldn't help but become emotional.
Yu Jingmo does whatever he wants.
Tian Ruan turned into a dough, and was kneaded into a mess by Yu Jingmo.
As soon as Tian Ruan, whose face was rosy and shiny, came downstairs, Sister Zhang praised her: "Madam, you look really good today."
Tian Ruan: "...Thank you, Sister Zhang."
The moisturized state is different from the usual state. Tian Ruan himself couldn't see it, but others could understand it at a glance.
Tian Ruan deliberately walked straight and sat upright, trying his best not to be so obvious.
"Madam, I'm going to work." Yu Jingmo was wearing a neat suit, shiny pointed leather shoes, and his hair was combed back in an aggressive style. He walked out with a calm expression.
Tian Ruan went to see her off, only to see her husband in a black coat, with a stern temperament, still as handsome as ever. He suddenly stopped being angry, "Goodbye, Mr. Yu."
The butler stood five steps away with a tactful look and bowed with a smile.
Yu Jingmo kissed Tian Ruan's smooth and plump forehead as if no one was around. His long eyelashes trembled, and his snow-white cheeks were slightly red with a layer of morning light. He looked so beautiful that he couldn't help but kiss his eyes again, "I'll take you out for dinner tonight."
Tian Ruan nodded obediently.
Then Tian Ruan changed his clothes, dressed himself up, and went to meet those writers in the translation field.
I drove to the vicinity of Starbucks and finally found a parking space, but I didn't know how to park it. The bodyguard behind was still in the car, stuck in the road and unable to get out.
Tian Ruan reversed, moved forward, turned, and reversed again, moving little by little, but no matter how many mathematical principles he used, he could not drive in.
Just when he was in a dilemma, Ai Ge ran over from the zebra crossing, knocked on the window, and said with a smile: "Master, from a distance I saw you looked like a beetle climbing a tree."
Tian Ruan: "...I'm sorry, I don't know how to park."
"Come down, I'll do it."
Ai Ge was quick and decisive, and helped him park the Rolls-Royce in no time.
Tian Ruan said admiringly: "Captain, you are really amazing."
Ai Ge: "I usually drive to school by myself. If I were to dawdle like you, I would be late so many times."
The two of them were waiting for the green light on the other side of the zebra crossing at the intersection. Tian Ruan looked at the Starbucks across the street and saw a familiar figure in the window. He doubted his eyes and asked, "Are those the writers?"
Ai Ge: "That's right. They are abroad all year round and it's hard for them to get together. Today is a coincidence, so I'll bring you to meet the seniors in the industry."
The green light came on and Tian Ruan walked over hesitantly.
The closer he got, the wider Tian Ruan’s eyes opened. Oh my God, isn’t that Zhou Gu? ?
Zhou Gu looked at him with a smile until he walked in.
"Hello, seniors. This is the Tian Ruan whom I mentioned to you, the one with excellent translation skills." Ai Ge introduced with a smile and winked at Tian Ruan.
Seeing Zhou Gu, Tian Ruan was stuck, "Ah, hello."
Ai Ge added: "He is quite shy and not very good at speaking. Please don't blame me, seniors."
A lady dressed in an intellectual style smiled and said, "I can see it."
Ai Ge and Tian Ruan sat in a booth. There were two people opposite them and one person next to them, a total of three "seniors", including Zhou Gu.
"What a coincidence, we meet again." Zhou Gu said.
Tian Ruan was speechless. How could he accept that a person who helped drug dealers do illegal activities was actually quite famous for his literary attainments? It's totally off the mark.
Ai Ge smiled at them and looked at Tian Ruan in confusion, "They are all very kind people, don't be afraid."
Tian Ruan blurted out: "I'm not afraid of him."
“…”
"I mean, this senior seems to be raising birds, and giant birds at that."
Zhou Gu was surprised: "How do you know I keep birds? I do keep a white peacock."
Tian Ruan: "You smell like bird shit."
Zhou Gu: “…”
The lady next to him covered her nose.
Zhou Gu maintained a polite smile and said, "Most of the time, the peacocks are taken care of by others. I only feed them occasionally."
Ai Ge smiled and changed the subject: "Senior Zhou is also from Deyin. His experience is inspiring. He is somewhat similar to Tian Ruan."
Tian Ruan: “?”
Zhou Gu lowered his eyes and took a sip of coffee, with a faint smile on his lips: "It's not worth mentioning. It's just that I had a noble person to help me in high school, so I was able to continue studying in Deyin, and then I was admitted to university and went to study abroad."
Ai Ge: "Senior Zhou was always in the top three in the grade, and so was Tian Ruan."
Tian Ruan thought about it carefully and was shocked to find that he and Zhou Gu did have some similarities.
The biggest similarity is that they are all "kept" by big bosses. The difference is that Zhou Gu and Qi Feng are not in a marriage relationship, while Tian Ruan and Yu Jingmo are in a marriage relationship.
If Zhou Gu and Qi Feng appeared as a control group for Tian Ruan and Yu Jingmo, then it would make sense.
Tian Ruan looked at Zhou Gu, as if he saw their ending in the original book, one died, and the other died too...
Destroy it.
While Tian Ruan was in a daze, they had already started chatting.
Tian Ruan continued to stare blankly, staring at——
Zhou Gu: "If you keep looking at me like this, I'll think you've fallen in love with me."
Tian Ruan suddenly came back to his senses, "What did you say? You fell in love with a pile of poop?"
Zhou Gu: “…”
Ai Ge pulled at the corner of Tian Ruan's clothes, leaned closer and whispered, "What's wrong with you today? Why are you not able to express yourself clearly?"
Tian Ruan: "Sorry, I may have a concussion again."
"You have a concussion?"
"Well, it's a problem I developed in my second year of high school. I'll just be in a daze for a while."
The lady was chatting happily with another male writer, and they seemed to be attracted to each other. She stood up impatiently and said, "We have something else to do, so we'll leave first. You guys chat."
Ai Ge didn't want to keep them, "See you next time, teachers."
Tian Ruan: "Goodbye, teacher."
The lady smiled and said, "What a good student."
The three of them left in Starbucks stared at each other. Even though Ai Ge was eloquent, he couldn't understand the situation at the moment. He coughed and asked, "Does Senior Zhou know Tian Ruan?"
"It was just a chance encounter." They both said at the same time.
Tian Ruan: “…Shit.”
Ai Ge realized that this was not a pleasant encounter, so he stood up and said, "I'm going to go outside to get some fresh air, you guys chat."
Tian Ruan: "I have nothing to talk to him about. I'm going back."
Zhou Gu picked up the coffee slowly, when suddenly his cell phone rang.
Tian Ruan raised his butt and sat back down. He wanted to listen to what Zhou Gu and Qi Feng would say - if the person opposite was really Qi Feng.
Zhou Gu answered the phone and said, "Brother, what's up?"
The only person Zhou Gu can call "brother" is Qi Feng.
The voice on the phone was inaudible.
Zhou Gu's expression slowly darkened, and he said, "I understand. I will pick a bouquet of flowers for you on my way back."
Hang up the phone.
Zhou Gu looked at Tian Ruan inexplicably, "Why don't you leave?"
Tian Ruan drank the coffee in one gulp. "It's fifty yuan a cup. It would be such a waste if I don't drink it all."
"…It's my treat today. It's up to you whether you want to drink or not."
"Then I'm going to vomit." Tian Ruan ran out and dry-heaved twice under the tree, but nothing came out.
Ai Ge patted him on the back, looking worried: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked you to come. The coffee here is too cheap and you got an upset stomach."
"It's okay." Tian Ruan patted his chest. "Although I usually drink coffee that costs three thousand yuan a cup, today I can also experience the suffering of the people."
Ai Ge felt even more guilty: "In fact, I have never had such bad coffee."
Zhou Gu listened to the whole process, "..."
Ai Ge looked back suddenly, "..."
Tian Ruan ran away as if nothing had happened, faster than a rabbit.
A week later, Tian Ruan found out that the bouquet of flowers bought by Zhou Gu was in the hands of He Lans.
