Chapter 34 Business Trip "...Mr. Yu, you've been drugged." Tian...
"...Dad." Yu Shang let go of Lu Qiuyan's hand awkwardly.
Tian Ruan quickly tried to make amends for them: "You two were just talking, did you have a quarrel?"
Lu Qiuyan: “Yeah.”
"Yu Shang, why don't you give in to your classmates? You are the president of the student union, you can't bully the weak, do you understand?" Tian Ruan taught him like a little father.
Yu Shang: “…”
Yu Jingmo is not so easy to fool. Every time he runs into Yu Shang and a classmate, this classmate is Lu Qiuyan. It is really too much of a coincidence. But he didn't ask more questions. Merchants are best at observation, and only when they make the right judgment can they deliver a fatal blow.
Yu Shang was his son, and he knew him best. The current situation was not something he needed to worry about, so he said, "Get along well with your classmates and don't quarrel."
Yu Shang nodded awkwardly: "Okay."
Lu Qiuyan was also uncomfortable: "We didn't quarrel, we just had a few words."
Tian Ruan smiled kindly: "That's great, classmates should love each other and help each other."
Yu Jingmo glanced at Tian Ruan and said, "You are becoming more and more great and glorious."
Tian Ruan: “…”
"Let's go."
Yu Shang followed them out of the hotel. Lu Qiuyan walked towards the gate out of habit and asked casually, "Tian Ruan, where are you going?"
Tian Ruan: "On a business trip?"
"You still need to travel? You have a job?"
Tian Ruan thought for a moment, "Does this job of being a rich family's little dad count?"
Lu Qiuyan looked at Yu Jingmo's stern profile in front of him. He felt much more oppressive than Yu Shang. He nodded in understanding, "I understand."
Not everyone can enter the Yu family, and if you do, you have to be prepared to make appropriate "sacrifices". For example, Tian Ruan, could he not listen to Yu Jingmo? Yes, but only if you don’t want to live anymore.
Tian Ruan has figured it out. He will not try to change Yu Jingmo's life trajectory. He will let things take their course. In this way, he can survive for two years, and Yu Jingmo will still be the powerful business tycoon.
The stretched black sedan was shiny in the morning light. Tian Ruan had sat in it the same day after the wedding. The driver was putting the luggage in the trunk, and Assistant Xu was standing by the car waiting.
A golden-gray Bentley was parked about five or six meters away, and a clear, deep voice said, "Tian Ruan."
Tian Ruan turned his head and saw Du Henbie, dressed in formal attire, striding towards him.
Du Henbie took a step forward and asked with a smile, "Are you going out for something?"
"Um."
"Is this your husband?"
"Yes."
Du Henbie extended his hand to Yu Jingmo, "Hello, Mr. Yu, I am Du Henbie."
Yu Jingmo did not shake hands with him and said calmly: "Sorry, I'm in a hurry."
As he spoke, he held the door of the stretched sedan with one hand and put the other hand on Tian Ruan's lower back, half pushing and half pushing Tian Ruan into the car. Then he got in from the other side and the door slammed.
Assistant Xu smiled apologetically at Du Henbie and immediately got into the car.
The car started and headed for the airport.
Yu Shang watched the car disappear at the end of the downhill slope. Du Henbie smiled and said, "Your father is quite ostentatious."
"He is very busy." said Yu Shang.
"You're so busy that you still have to bring your little dad along. It seems like he dotes on you a lot?"
"This is my family's business." Yu Shang seemed to be aware of something. "Mr. Du seems to be very concerned about my stepfather?"
Du Henbie walked over to Bentley and said, "Maybe it's because he and my mother look so much alike. I think we are destined to be together."
"What's the meaning?"
Du Henbie smiled without saying anything, got into the car, stepped on the accelerator and left.
Yu Shang frowned and didn't relax for a long time.
Seeing this, Lu Qiuyan said, “Du Henbie wouldn’t want to steal your little dad and become his mother, right?”
Yu Shang: "...He shouldn't be that boring."
"Who knows, some people are just that boring."
Yu Shang thought for a moment, and then reported to Yu Jingmo about Du Hen's behavior towards Tian Ruan.
Yu Jingmo replied with a “hmm”.
After exiting WeChat, Yu Jingmo personally asked Tian Ruan for confirmation: "Du Hen said that you look like his mother, is it true?"
Tian Ruan didn't care: "It's true, after all, we are all NPCs."
"?"
"coincide."
Yu Jingmo seemed to be thinking about something. "Have you ever thought that the similarity between you and Du Henbie's mother is not a coincidence? Maybe you are her son?"
Tian Ruan was shocked: "How is it possible? My mother is Sha Meijuan."
"You don't look like Sha Meijuan."
"Maybe I'm like my father who died early."
Tian Ruan didn't dare to imagine that he would be the long-lost heir of a wealthy family. This kind of bloody plot would only happen to the protagonist, and he was not the protagonist.
If I were really so delusional, it would be so embarrassing to be found out as a fake.
"Have you really never thought about this possibility?" Yu Jingmo glanced at Tian Ruan's snow-white face.
Tian Ruan was puzzled: "Why is this possible? It doesn't make sense."
It's weird for him, a minor supporting character, to become the heir of a wealthy family. As we all know, those three "playboys" who had long since left the stage barely had a connection with the wealthy family, and ended up being cannon fodder who appeared in less than two chapters.
Tian Ruan believed that if he really became the heir to a wealthy family and stole the limelight from the protagonist, he would only die faster.
In this melodramatic BL novel, how can there be someone more awesome than the protagonist? Even if there is, he is just a stepping stone or plug-in for the protagonist.
"Unreasonable?" Yu Jingmo asked back.
Tian Ruan didn't know how to explain it. He was from the world outside the book and knew the basic rules that governed this world.
It may be just an ordinary thing for people in this world, but for Tian Ruan it is a sword of Damocles hanging over his head, making him uneasy all day long.
Now, he has finally settled down a little, and doesn't want another "accident" to disrupt his life.
"Anyway, there's no way I could have any relationship with Du Henbie." Tian Ruan said firmly.
Yu Jingmo remained noncommittal. He thought that other things could be denied, but blood ties were hard to break. He hoped that he was just overthinking it.
Arrive at the airport, check in, go through security and get priority boarding. With Yu Jingmo here, everything goes well.
The two sat in the first class cabin, and the exclusive flight attendant provided service in fluent bilingual language, helping them adjust seats, introducing first aid facilities, serving tea, snacks, etc.
The flight attendant finally said, "This flight will take eleven hours and forty minutes. I wish you two a pleasant journey."
Yu Jingmo took out his laptop to work and ordered a latte. "If you're bored, you can watch a movie."
There is a screen hanging in the upper front, and there is a remote control on the side of the seat. You can put on the headset and watch the movie you want to watch. However, there are only a dozen or so built-in movies, which are unremarkable.
Tian Ruan chose a British art film, Pride and Prejudice.
This is indeed a movie you will never get tired of watching. The heroine is as beautiful and aloof as the bright moon and flowers, while the hero clearly falls in love with her at first sight, but he is hypocritical because of his status. And in the end, when he walked towards the heroine from the morning mist, they completely forgave each other's prejudices and entered each other's hearts.
Tian Ruan was always very moved when he saw this. This is what love should be like. But sitting still for two hours was really hard. When he moved a little, his lumbar spine cracked.
For the first time, Yu Jingmo looked at Tian Ruan with a slight surprise, "Did you break a bone?"
Tian Ruan: "…It's not broken, it's just frozen."
Yu Jingmo condescended to massage Tian Ruan's lower back for a while, "Are you feeling better?"
Tian Ruan nodded, "Much better, thank you Mr. Yu."
"Get up and move around, and get ready for lunch."
Tian Ruan's activity was to go to the toilet and then go to the restaurant with Yu Jingmo.
The restaurant on the plane was not really that big. He and Yu Jingmo could touch each other's legs when they sat face to face at the table - no one else had this problem, maybe because Yu Jingmo's legs were too long.
Yu Jingmo didn't say anything about this. He picked up the fruit and vegetable salad and put it into his mouth to taste it. The side dish was a small piece of whole wheat bread, a cup of black coffee, and a box of blueberries.
Tian Ruan had a vegetarian meal, which was not very delicious, but not bad either. It was just his first flight and he had a poor appetite. He could not finish the last purple potato cubes and corn, so he played slowly...
Seeing this, Yu Jingmo forked over the purple sweet potato and corn and ate them silently and naturally.
"...Thank you, Mr. Yu." Tian Ruan finally didn't feel guilty about wasting food.
Yu Jingmo finished eating, wiped his lips with a napkin and said, "When I was a kid, my parents ate my leftovers like this too."
Tian Ruan said longingly: "Your parents must love you very much."
"Your parents don't love you?" Yu Jingmo asked sharply.
Tian Ruan was about to say he didn't know, but suddenly realized that his current mother was Sha Meijuan, so he said, "Of course I love her."
"Um."
Because he had enough sleep, Tian Ruan stayed awake most of the time during the rest of the trip. He memorized some words, read magazines, and took a half-hour nap when he had nothing to do.
Yu Jingmo covered him with a small blanket.
After a long flight, the plane was about to land and the flight attendant distributed entry customs declaration forms. Each family only needed to fill out one form, which had to be in English. Yu Jingmo took the application form familiarly and filled in the information fluently with a black pen.
Tian Ruan tilted his head and watched carefully, taking notes silently, thinking that he might need it in the future.
After the plane lands, the declaration form together with the passport will be handed over to the immigration officer for inspection, and the passenger will be released after being confirmed to be in good condition.
Coming out of the terminal, you can see people of all races and hear the constant honking of taxi drivers.
Assistant Xu was pushing a luggage cart with four large suitcases neatly laid out on it, and behind him were four bodyguards. Tian Ruan felt a little stressed, and anyone who saw him would feel that he and Yu Jingmo were not of the same style.
Tian Ruan was wearing jeans, a sports jacket, a baseball cap, and a backpack on his shoulders, looking like a real student.
Yu Jingmo was dressed in a suit and had a strong aura. Behind him were bodyguards in uniform black clothes and sunglasses. They looked so handsome that everyone who passed by looked at him and kept a distance from him.
The partner personally sent people to pick them up at the airport, and five luxury cars picked them up. A foreigner who looked like a manager shook hands with Yu Jingmo, had a brief conversation with them, and then invited them to get in the car.
The foreigner opened the door for Yu Jingmo. Yu Jingmo put his arm around Tian Ruan's waist, helped her into the car, and then got in from the other side.
"Is this your wife?" The foreigner sat in the passenger seat and teased, "He looks like a student."
Yu Jingmo: "He is a student, in high school."
The foreigner was very surprised, "Uh, how old is he?"
"twenty."
"Wow, you can't tell at all, I thought she was fifteen or sixteen, it scared me."
It was still dark in the United States at this time, and there were only urchins and a few homeless people on the streets. The car first took Yu Jingmo and the others to the hotel to rest.
"See you in a few hours, Mr. Ink," the foreigner said with a smile.
When the door of the hotel room was closed, Tian Ruan asked, "Your English name is Ink?"
Yu Jingmo: “Yeah.”
Tian Ruan thought hard: "What should I call myself then?"
Yu Jingmo loosened his tie and said casually, "soft."
"..." Tian Ruan stared at him, "I am a man."
Yu Jingmo took off his coat, opened the wine cabinet, opened a bottle of 1982 red wine, opened it with a bottle opener skillfully, and poured himself a glass. "The pinyin of your name sounds nice and is easy to remember."
Tian Ruan couldn't figure it out for a moment, "Okay."
"I'll take a nap to adjust to the jet lag. You don't have to adjust so you can go back to school."
"good."
Yu Jingmo slowly sipped the red wine, then went to take a shower, wrapped himself in a bathrobe and went to sleep, and ordered dinner for Tian Ruan. After a while, dinner was served. Tian Ruan wanted to ask Yu Jingmo to eat something, but Yu Jingmo was already sleeping soundly and seemed really tired.
Tian Ruan ate the exquisite Italian dishes alone. After memorizing some words for a while, he felt sleepy and went to take a shower.
There was still a trace of Yu Jingmo's scent in the bathroom, which made Tian Ruan blush and her heart beat fast.
After wrapping himself in a bathrobe, Tian Ruan walked around the huge suite twice but couldn't find the second bedroom. He was dumbfounded. This suite actually only had one bedroom?
Yu Jingmo is already lying on the two-meter-wide bed in this bedroom. Where will Tian Ruan sleep?
He looked at the sofa, study, and kitchen chairs one by one and finally chose the sofa with a feeling of grievance - he didn't dare to sleep in the same bed with Yu Jingmo, as he was afraid that he would be struck by lightning when he woke up.
After an unknown amount of time, Tian Ruan felt a little cold and subconsciously wrapped himself tightly in a thin blanket. Then, he was picked up. He couldn't open his eyes, but when he smelled a familiar cold fragrance, he felt extremely at ease.
It felt like I was sinking into soft cotton, wrapped up and warm.
Tian Ruan held a piece of cloth in her hand and heard the man's deep voice: "Let go, I have to get busy."
Tian Ruan didn't let go, and even pulled it towards his arms.
"..." Yu Jingmo waited until he fell asleep completely before pulling the corner of his clothes out of his hand, tucked in the quilt for the handsome young man on the bed, and then changed his clothes and went to work.
When Tian Ruan woke up, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, US time.
He sat up in a daze and found that he was sleeping on a bed. His mind was empty and he thought for a long time before he finally remembered that he was carried to the bed by Yu Jingmo.
Tian Ruan's red face turned even redder.
He picked up the phone on the bedside table, which contained four messages from Yu Jingmo: I'm going to work. I ordered lunch for you, got up and called the internal number, the number is next to the phone. Remember to bring a bodyguard when you go shopping. If you like to swipe your card, leave it in the bedside table. There is a cocktail party in the evening and I will be back around two o'clock.
Tian Ruan was startled, and then realized that it was two o'clock in the afternoon Beijing time, which was eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening US time.
Tian Ruan replied: Okay, thank you Mr. Yu.
Yu Jingmo: Why are you so polite when you are abroad? Are you afraid of being abandoned?
Tian Ruan: ...No.
Yu Jingmo: Don’t go to dangerous places.
Tian Ruan: Okay.
As a good student, when Tian Ruan arrived at a new place, what he was most interested in was naturally the library. After a quick lunch, Tian Ruan opened the door and saw the bodyguards who were as tall as telephone poles. He said, "Let's go to the library."
The bodyguard led the way dutifully, and it took two turns before we found the library.
As soon as you enter the library, the hustle and bustle immediately fades away. Even in a country where people live for the moment, libraries are quiet and have a great learning atmosphere.
As soon as Tian Ruan entered, he received several strange looks. After thinking it over, he ordered the bodyguard to take off his sunglasses, and this way he did not receive any more attention.
While selecting hardcover foreign books from the bookshelf, Tian Ruan picked one with difficulty and sat down next to it to read.
The two bodyguards patrolled a circle and found no suspicious people, so they each held a book, frowned and looked miserable. They really couldn't understand it, so they went to ask Tian Ruan in a low voice: "Madam, what does this sentence mean?"
Tian Ruan was happy to act as a temporary translator: "Woman, don't think I will be soft-hearted if you pretend to be pitiful. It's useless..."
The bodyguard nodded rapidly: "What about this sentence?"
"That night, he didn't let her go until dawn..."
"This one?"
"..." Tian Ruan took the whole book and looked at the cover. His eyes went dark immediately. The picture on it was the realistic pretty girl and handsome boy that was popular in China twenty years ago.
And the English title of the book translates to: The Fugitive Wife of the Gangster Prince: Sexy Temptation.
Why are there such books abroad? It is also openly collected in libraries near foreign universities.
Tian Ruan found it funny, so he took photos and sent them to Yu Shang and Lu Qiuyan respectively.
Yu Shang:?
Lu Qiuyan: Very exciting.
Tian Ruan chatted with them while reading a book, and before he knew it, it was evening. The bodyguard was miserable in the library which looked like a heavenly book, and reminded: "Madam, the library will be closed soon, let's go back to the hotel."
Tian Ruan reluctantly returned the book to its place and went back to the hotel.
After swiping the room card to enter the suite, Tian Ruan discovered that the light in the living room was on. Perhaps it was turned on by the housekeeping manager. Just as she was about to say "how thoughtful" she felt, a figure suddenly appeared in the bedroom.
"Who?!" Tian Ruan scolded.
The figure came out hesitantly. It was a thin blond young man. "Oh..."
Tian Ruan immediately opened the door and let the bodyguard in, "There's a thief."
The bodyguard strode forward and restrained the blond young man, "Who are you!"
At last their poor English came in handy.
The other bodyguard said subconsciously: "I am fine, thank you."
“…”
The blond youth looked at the two oriental-looking burly men in horror, "I'm not a thief, no, listen to my explanation, I walked into the wrong room, I'm sorry, I apologize to you!"
The bodyguard asked Tian Ruan: "Madam, what is he mumbling about?"
Tian Ruan: “…”
Tian Ruan looked at the blond young man and asked, "How do you prove that you are not a thief?"
Finally, there was one person who understood. The blond youth's eyes filled with tears. "If you don't believe me, search me. You can search my entire body. I promise I didn't take anything from the room."
Tian Ruan did not do it himself but directed the bodyguards.
The bodyguard quickly stripped the blond young man down to his underwear.
“…”
The blond young man sobbed.
The bodyguard glanced into his underwear to make sure he had no valuables, and then pulled out a card and a box of condoms from his pocket.
Tian Ruan took the card, "Prince Charming Club, Christine."
The blond youth said pitifully while putting on his clothes: "Little brother, if you need me, I can provide you with services. I am very cheap."
"..." Tian Ruan realized what this thing was, "Get lost."
The blond young man put on his clothes and left in a hurry without even taking the card and condom.
"Madam, would you like to call the room manager?" asked the bodyguard.
"Call him over."
After a while, the room manager arrived and Tian Ruan confronted him with the card, "I need an explanation, why unrelated people can enter my and my husband's room at will."
The room manager apologized: "I'm sorry, the gentleman said he forgot to bring his room card. I will never make this mistake again."
Tian Ruan felt that it would not be that simple, but no matter how he questioned, the housekeeping manager insisted that it was a mistake and not intentional. He had no choice but to send the man away and wait for Yu Jingmo to come back to discuss changing hotels.
They waited until late at night. Tian Ruan was not sleepy because he had gotten enough sleep, so he read a book on the sofa in the living room.
Hearing the guest room door open, he put down the book and ran over, just in time to meet Yu Jingmo who came in.
"Mr. Yu, you're back so late." After Tian Ruan finished speaking, she felt like she was acting like a spoiled child, and quickly got back to business, "Someone broke into the guest room during the day. Although nothing was missing, this hotel is not safe. Should we change to another hotel tomorrow?"
Yu Jingmo loosened his tie with his slender fingers as he walked towards the bathroom, and agreed nonchalantly, "Yeah."
Tian Ruan suddenly sniffed. A strong smell of alcohol emanated from Yu Jingmo. "How much did you drink?"
"It's a cocktail party, so of course we have to drink." Yu Jingmo washed his hands and face amid the sound of splashing water, but his head was still dizzy. He looked expressionless, but in fact he could no longer see the road clearly, and his body felt burning with anxiety.
Tian Ruan moved closer and it was rare to see Yu Jingmo's icy face show any expression other than expressionless or smiling. His thick and long eyebrows were slightly furrowed, his ears were red, and he seemed to be in discomfort.
"Mr. Yu, let me pour you a glass of water." Tian Ruan was about to turn around when his wrist was suddenly grabbed and he was pushed against the sink, with his head almost hitting the mirror.
"???" Tian Ruan realized that something was wrong. It was not as simple as being drunk. Yu Jingmo's breathing was hot and the look in his eyes when he looked at him was filled with some kind of animal desire.
Tian Ruan subconsciously didn't want to believe this possibility. Yu Jingmo was well-known for his abstinence, so how could it be... But the strong touch against his lower abdomen told him a devastating fact.
——Yu Jingmo was moved.
Why?
Tian Ruan's mind raced, and he suddenly thought of the sneaky and seductive blond young man, the condom that fell out of his pocket, his special profession, and the relationship with the room manager that allowed him to wait here.
If Tian Ruan was not there, then the person who was pushed down on the sink by Yu Jingmo at this moment would not be Tian Ruan.
Thinking of this, Tian Ruan broke out in a cold sweat. Who wanted to harm Yu Jingmo?
No, what he should worry about most now is himself.
"...Mr. Yu, you have been drugged." Tian Ruan said this tremblingly.
Yu Jingmo looked at him with her eyes burning, very close to him, so close that she was almost about to passionately kiss the handsome young man in front of her.
