Chapter 40: Male Love (Additional Update) Two figures entangled in the water...
Lu Qiuyan was still asleep. The original author once described the protagonist’s sleeping face so tenderly: as pure and flawless as an angel, having gone through many hardships but still retaining its original appearance.
Tian Ruan looked at Lu Qiuyan for a while and saw that he showed no signs of waking up. It seemed that he was really tired.
At the age of seventeen, he had to bear the double pressure of working and going to school. He was used to a life of luxury before, but after his family went bankrupt, he not only had to endure his father's alcoholism and scolding, but also had to accept pressure from his mother.
It's like going to Deyin and making friends with a bunch of young masters and young ladies, and you can turn things around and solve the difficulties at home.
Little did they know that businessmen are profit-oriented and very realistic. Without an exchange of interests, the children of businessmen would be influenced by their environment and would have to weigh the pros and cons. Very few of them would be able to truly make friends with Lu Qiuyan.
The more Tian Ruan thought about it, the more distressed he felt. Lu Qiuyan was having a much harder time than he was at this moment.
"How pitiful." Tian Ruan poked Lu Qiuyan's hot cheek.
Yu Shang whispered: "What are you doing?"
Tian Ruan directly put his hand on Lu Qiuyan's smooth and full forehead, "My hands are quite cold, let's cool him down."
Yu Shang grabbed his sleeve and pulled it away, "Don't make trouble."
Tian Ruan: "Hehehe, are you jealous? Then you touch his face, no, you are angry, it will make things worse."
Yu Shang dragged his unreliable young father out of the bedroom and closed the door. Apart from Lu Qiuyan's light breathing, the only sound inside was the buzzing of the central air conditioner.
"Have you found out who drugged you?" Yu Shang took the opportunity to ask.
Tian Ruan: "I found it. My second uncle sent someone to give me the medicine."
Yu Shang: "Second uncle? No, second grandfather?"
"That's him."
"Does he have a personal grudge against Du Hen?"
"You'll know when he comes."
Yu Shang nodded, "Okay, go and wait, and report to me if anything happens."
The tone was exactly the same as Yu Jingmo's. Tian Ruan subconsciously wanted to obey the order, but then he realized that it was not Yu Jingmo's order, so he changed his tone and said, "Why should I listen to you? You don't even play with me."
After saying that, he turned his head and walked away with a proud and confident look.
Yu Shang: “…”
Back in the hall, Tian Ruan sat next to Yu Jingmo with a proud look on his face.
Yu Jingmo: "Are you so happy just pooping?"
Tian Ruan: “…Yeah.”
You can't say that you secretly went to your son's guest room to visit your future daughter-in-law.
After waiting for a while, the security office called the front desk and said that Mr. Yu's car had arrived. The managers went out to meet him tremblingly. Yu Jingmo stood still as a mountain, and Tian Ruan put his raised butt down again.
Tian Ruan imitated Yu Jingmo, picking up the teacup and sipping the tea in small sips.
The pleasantries took turns outside and finally flowed back into the hall. No one informed Yu Er, waiting for Yu Jingmo's thundering wrath to come.
"Second Uncle." Yu Jingmo waited for someone to come in before he stood up gracefully. "How have you been lately?"
Yu Er spoke in a loud voice, and his gray hair seemed to have regained its youth: "Okay."
"Please go sit in the tea room."
In just over 30 meters of the road, Yu Fadada and his wife praised Tian Ruan to the skies: "You got second place in your first test. You have a bright future ahead of you."
Tian Ruan smiled politely: "Thank you for the compliments, my second cousin and his wife. I still have a lot of room for improvement."
"Look at this kid, how modest he is." Fatuo's wife sighed, "If our Xiaojun had half of his board of directors, he wouldn't be in this situation..."
"What's wrong with Xiaojun?" Yu Er interrupted unhappily, "Xiaojun is my good grandson. In my eyes, he is better than anyone else."
Yu Fadada felt ashamed. No one knew his son's character better than him, but as a grandfather, Yu Er only spoiled him.
The wealthy wife was speechless and smiled awkwardly.
In the original book, this couple were not bad people, they just had an unlucky father/father-in-law. Tian Ruan said, "No one knows a son better than his father. Second cousin, why don't you talk to Mr. Yu about parenting in your spare time?"
Yu Fadada: "Okay."
Yu Jingmo glanced at Tian Ruan and said, "I don't have any parenting skills. It all depends on my son to strive for success."
“…”
How could he not live up to expectations? Yu Jingmo had originally trained Yu Shang as his successor. If he was not satisfied with him at all, he would not have raised him until now. Yu Shang knew this very well, but even though he was smart, he was more tired than a dog every day.
It’s also thanks to Yu Shang himself that he is very comfortable with this kind of succession model. Why not try Yu Jun instead? He would give up and run away in a moment.
Even if all the talents and resources of the protagonist were given to Tian Ruan, he was not confident that he could do better than Yu Shang.
Amidst slight awkwardness, the group entered the tea room.
The waiter brought the tea, and before Yu Er could even take a sip, he heard Yu Jingmo, who was sitting at the main seat, ask, "Second Uncle, was it you who ordered someone to drug Du Henbie?"
Yu Ers hand trembled and almost burned his wrinkled hand.
Yu Fadada asked in confusion, "Drug? What drug?"
Yu Jingmo: "My second uncle had someone drug Du Henbie. My wife happened to be inside, and that person broke down the door, preventing my wife from getting out. If Du Henbie hadn't jumped out of the window and escaped, could you have imagined the consequences?"
Yu Er's hands trembled again, and he looked at Tian Ruan in horror, "You..."
Tian Ruan smiled: "I'm fine, uncle, don't worry about it."
Even if he doesn't take it to heart, someone else will.
Yu Er was visibly panicked, and the tea spilled out, scalding him so much that he grimaced. “Just make sure your wife isn’t hurt by mistake. Now go find out where this Du Henbie is, take a picture of him, and send it to Yongheng Enterprise.”
"Dad, what are you talking about?!" Yu Fadada exclaimed, "What are you doing? Do you really need to drug someone?"
Yu Er said sternly, "What do you know? Yongheng Enterprise is about to cooperate with us, but Du Henbie comes in. Who does he think he is? How dare he steal the Yu family's job? As long as he gets an ugly photo of him, Yongheng's boss will ignore him."
Tian Ruan was also stunned. As expected, the butterfly effect fanned hurricanes on both sides of the Atlantic. Even the reasons for drugging and framing were exactly the same.
Yu Ershen has really learned the skills of a bad guy.
Tian Ruan even suspected that it was because of Yu Er's action that the butterflies flew to Los Angeles. As a result of the cycle of cause and effect, Yu Jingmo was drugged.
If it were in the real world, cause and effect would not necessarily cycle so quickly. But this is the world in the book. Under the author's deliberate manipulation, the will of the world is towards the protagonist. Whenever the supporting cannon fodder does evil, he will definitely get retribution.
“…”
So why did this retribution fall on Yu Jingmo? How outrageous!
Tian Ruan was indignant: "Second Uncle, this is a despicable and shameless method. Do you think Du Henbie doesn't know that you did it? I tell you, if he retaliates later, you will have no life to enjoy it even if you have a fortune."
Yu Er was furious, settling old scores and new grudges at once: "How dare you talk like that? I am your elder, and I just taught you a lesson before. Not only did you not like it, but you also cursed me and blocked me. You are simply a barbarian!"
Tian Ruan: "What's a barbarian? I'm an alien."
"..." Yu Er pointed at Tian Ruan, "Yu Jingmo, look at him, what kind of person is he? Get rid of him as soon as possible!"
Yu Jingmo didn't even raise his eyelids. "I have my own wife, I can take care of her myself, no need for you to worry about her."
"Dad, was it really you who drugged someone?" Yu Fatada asked with a suddenly serious expression.
Yu Er was like an ugly fish with a bloated belly, his face full of trembling flesh: "Yongheng Enterprise is a state-owned enterprise, we can't lose the cooperation. I worked for you, and the money was all paid out of my own pocket, and in the end you still blame me, right?"
Yu Jingmo: "This is the headquarters' business, so don't worry about it, uncle."
"What a bunch of ungrateful wolves!"
Yu Jingmo suddenly said, "The nursing home in the east of the city has a beautiful environment and complete facilities. Most importantly, you don't have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation."
Yu Er was stunned, "What do you mean?"
Yu Jingmo looked at him and said in a deep and powerful voice: "This is my filial piety. Please accept it, Second Uncle."
"You want to send me to a nursing home?" Yu Er raised his voice, "Don't even think about it!"
"Second cousin, what do you think?" Yu Jingmo was giving an order rather than asking.
His orders were rarely disobeyed.
Yu Fadada struggled for a while, but finally nodded, "I think what you said makes sense. It's time for my dad to enjoy his old age."
Yu Er was so angry that he smashed the tea set, and the tea and ceramic fragments flew everywhere. "I don't agree! Don't even think about sending me to a nursing home!"
Yu Jingmo frowned and stretched out his hand to block Tian Ruan's face. The flying fragments scratched the back of his hand and bright red blood flowed down instantly.
The wealthy wife cried out in panic: "It's bleeding!"
Yu Er finally stopped his mischief. He was so angry that his eyeballs almost popped out. He pursed his dry lips and said without a word of apology, "None of you can send me away. No one can! I'm going to tell my dad!"
Tian Ruan held Yu Jingmo's hand and wiped it with a tissue in panic, and was very angry: "Second Master Yu, are you a three-year-old child? When you encounter problems, you go to your ninety-year-old father? Aren't you afraid of making him angry to death?"
Yu Er's beard trembled, "I have nothing to say to a barbarian like you."
Tian Ruan picked up a piece of ceramic shards and threatened: "Second cousin, send your father to a nursing home quickly, or I will not be able to control myself and cut his ugly face."
Yu Fadada took a deep breath and said, "Lend me the security guard."
Yu Jingmo said: "Okay."
Yu Fadada instructed the hotel security: "Tie up my dad and put him in the car."
Yu Er was shocked and angry: "You rebellious son!!"
Even so, he didn't faint from anger, which shows that Yu Er was pretending to be sick all the time. Halfway through the journey, he seemed to suddenly remember that he was ill, his eyes rolled back and he fell to the ground.
Yu Fadada: "The nursing home has all the medical facilities, so it's a good opportunity to go there for treatment."
Yu Er stood up, opened his cloudy eyes and continued to curse.
Tian Ruan felt relieved, "It's a good thing for him to be sent to a nursing home, otherwise he would have to wait for Du Hen's revenge."
Tian Ruan held Yu Jingmo's hand the whole time, as if it were some fragile treasure. He lowered his eyes and looked at the young man beside him, "Didn't you say that Du Henbie is a gentleman?"
Tian Ruan: "It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge."
Yu Jingmo's lips curled up slightly, "That's right."
Speaking of Du Henbie, Tian Ruan suddenly wanted to know how he was doing. The drizzle turned into a drizzle, falling like silver needles, and people felt slightly cool when they fell on them.
Tian Ruan took Yu Jingmo back to the presidential suite, found the medicine box, disinfected and applied medicine, pursed her rosy lips, blew on the wound, "Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt." Yu Jingmo not only didn't feel any pain, he even felt a little itchy.
Tian Ruan put a pink beautiful girl band-aid on the back of his hand.
Yu Jingmo: “…”
Tian Ruan's eyebrows curved and she laughed, "I really match you."
Yu Jingmo smiled, "Really?"
"Yeah." Tian Ruan nodded seriously, "It makes people feel less distant."
Yu Jingmo stroked the band-aid and said, "Yeah."
Just like this sudden autumn rain, Yu Jingmo left in a car when the rain stopped. Before leaving, he said to Tian Ruan: "I will come back to have dinner with you in the evening."
"Okay." Tian Ruan stepped on the wet maple leaves and watched the Maybach go down the slope and drive into the bustling city center.
Perhaps because he had solved a problem or dealt with a person, Tian Ruan was in high spirits. He walked lightly, turned a corner and quietly went to the open-air swimming pool.
Tian Ruan didn't want to see what he shouldn't see, but he was really curious and couldn't help it - he swore that as long as he saw Du Henbie floating on the water and not dead from hypothermia, he would go back.
There's heavy moisture around the swimming pool because it's been raining and the place is remote, so usually no one comes.
On the way, Tian Ruan picked up a leafy branch and held it in front of him to cover his progress.
The wind was not strong, and the water in the huge swimming pool was rippling gently, with ripples spreading from one corner of the pool.
Tian Ruan rushed to the tables and chairs under the parasol, lifted up the table and exposed his head, and his bright eyes calmly scanned the entire swimming pool.
When his eyes swept to the other side of the swimming pool, his pupils trembled suddenly, as if he had been struck by lightning, a magnitude 9.5 earthquake—
The two figures entangled in the water were Du Henbie and Helan Si!
The sky is falling.
