Chapter 32 Returning to the Past



Chapter 32 Returning to the Past

[Prostitution? Honey, can you please stop making a legitimate live stream sound like a brothel?!]

[I'm a cybersecurity guardian, and I'm going to arrest this lecherous little devil who's spouting nonsense and teach him a lesson!]

[Hey lady in front, you'd better educate yourself first. Give me a chance to play a punishment game with Xiao Fu.]

Am I the only one who noticed that Xiao Fu's smile just now was a little different from usual...?

...

Fu Yanle said, "Guest, would you like to say it in the live chat or via voice message?"

The microphone flashed.

Fu Yanle glanced at the screen with the mouse, then clicked on it and said, "Welcome, guest. You can ask a question or propose a business condition."

He smiled and said lazily, "I'll agree to anything."

An Shigou, who was standing to the side, quietly moved to the side. Damn it, Fu Yanle was too flamboyant today!

The microphone flashed three times, and a voice rang out in the live stream—

Good evening, Fu Yanle.

Yu Jingchen's voice rang out, creating a ripple in Fu Yanle's ears.

Please say 'goodnight' to me.

【Holy crap, what an amazing voice! So seductive!】

[The feeling of being soaked in alcohol has a kind of ascetic, languid quality, like someone who's been drinking! Are Fu Yanle's viewers this high-quality?!]

[Even though it's said "please," why does it feel like an irresistible command? So sad!]

[Spending 200,000 RMB just for a "goodnight"? Mysterious sugar daddy (top) vs. wanton, beautiful bottom (bottom), let's ship them, darlings!]

...

"Listen to that sound, he's had quite a bit to drink today." Fu Yanle squinted, leaning closer to the screen where comments were flooding in. "The moon is lonely in the cold night tonight, you were once the proudest fairy in my heart, I open the window, and I can see you in the moonlight at a glance—"

He exuded a proud, mysterious, and somewhat childish aura.

"good evening."

"This 'goodnight' belongs only to you—Brother Chen."

[Hahaha, what the heck?!]

[Help! This sentence is inexplicably funny yet inexplicably sincere! Is it someone I know?]

【Brother Chen?! That name sounds so familiar!】

[Holy crap, isn't this one of my seven great heroes? Is it Chen Ge from my WeChat chat history?! Is it him?! Is it him?!]

[I'm totally smitten with this CP! I was already shipping them based on their WeChat chat history, and now that "Brother Chen" has appeared, the charisma in his voice and the allure of money are making me want to ship them to death!]

...

"Submit to the CP?" Fu Yanle stroked his chin. "Official correction, the CP name is wrong. We are called the 'Wealthy' CP."

[Wealthy? What an auspicious and prosperous name! But baby, are you going to be the dominant one?]

Just by listening to Chen Ge's voice, you're already a 0!

The more something is lacking, the more it is emphasized.

...

Seeing this, Fu Yanle slammed his fist on the table in anger, "Brother Chen, do you think our name should be 'Wealthy'?!"

Yu Jingchen's smiling voice rang out immediately, "Yes."

[Wow, he's a bottom outside for love, Chen-ge is so doting!]

[Aww, her voice held three parts doting, three parts tenderness, three parts laughter, and the remaining ninety-one parts were pure love!]

[With Chen Ge's response, the sense of responsibility of the "1" came through, making Xiao Fu seem even more like a "0".]

...

"Damn it!" Fu Yanle crossed his arms in anger: "Get out of here!"

"Goodness," An Shigou said, "You and your brother even give yourselves couple names for no reason?"

Fu Yanle exuded an aura of dominance, saying, "What I have with others, I must have with my brother Chen as well."

“Yes,” Yu Jingchen said. “Alright, let’s continue the live stream.”

"Okay, don't drink too much, and go home early." Fu Yanle obediently instructed, then ruthlessly kicked Yu Jingchen off the microphone.

He suppressed a smile. "Now, we're going to serve our customers."

"Ahem!" An Shigou tugged at the bow on his chest. "Countdown three, two, one! Alright, it's you. This friend named 'Cute Xiugou,' if you want to send a comment, please send your request within one minute. If you want voice, please click to enable voice permission."

Cute Xiu Gou: [Hey Gou Gou, who was your favorite guest on Star Trek Part 3?]

"This is obviously a die-hard fan, making you offend people." Fu Yanle looked on with amusement.

An Shigou sneered, punched Fu Yanle, and his chin hit the ceiling. "I'll reluctantly choose you since you shared the pain of cross-dressing with me."

Fu Yanle humbly banged his head on the computer desk, "Thank you, dear, thank you, dear, I love you, you're so good, muah."

"Get out!" An Shigou retracted his chin. "Next one, yours."

Fu Yanle's subordinate: [Little Fu! Little Fu! Can you sing a short section of "La Vie en Rose" again?!]

"La Vie en Rose"? If it were before, I could easily sing a short section, or even the whole song, but now…

Fu Yanle said, "This song can't be sung, can we sing another one?"

Looking at the screen full of "why", Fu Yanle was very frank, "I sang this song for Brother Chen before, and he liked it so much that he knelt down and kowtowed to me three times on the spot, begging me not to sing it for anyone else. I was so touched that I agreed."

“You’re just talking nonsense,” An Shigou sneered. “Friends, if you never see Mou Le again, it’s because his brother Chen beat him to death.”

Fu Yanle innocently said, "This is an exaggeration."

Fu Yanle didn't want to sing "La Vie en Rose" for anyone else; this was his subconscious reaction. The song seemed to have become a meaningful thing between him and Yu Jingchen. He didn't know why, nor did he want to know; he only knew that if he didn't want to, he simply wouldn't sing it.

[Holy crap?! A love song! My favorite couple has gained another point!]

I've made up my mind. From now on, within the Greater Seven Corners area, I'll focus on getting rich!

[Good CP fans don't steal other people's favorites, so let's sing something else! As long as Xiao Fu sings it, I'll do anything!]

...

Fu Yanle's subordinate: [Sobbing, regret is also beautiful! It's okay, can you sing Johnny Hallyday's "I Promise You"? If you don't know it, Little Fu will just choose another one!]

"This one, I know—" Fu Yanle reached out and slammed his hand on the table, tapping out a melody, "I'll sing you the first few lines—"

“Je te promets le sel au baiser de ma bouche (I promise you that kissing will be witty)”

Je te promets le miel à ma main qui te touche (I promise you to caress me with the tenderness of honey)

Je te promets le ciel au dessus de ta couche (I promise you the heavens will be my blanket).

Des fleurs et des dentelles pour que tes nuits soient douces (The embroidered bed is warm and fragrant at night)

Gu Jiming gripped his phone tightly, the sound of his Adam's apple bobbing in the darkness delivering a sharp slap to his face. He had to admit that Fu Yanle had changed—no, actually, he hadn't changed, but rather reverted to his original self.

Fu Yanle, who could easily attract everyone's attention wherever he went.

Looking back now, Fu Yanle inexplicably changed after meeting Su Fengyao. Before, because of Lin Qingtong, he not only didn't think carefully about the reasons for Fu Yanle's change, but was even quite happy, because that kind of Fu Yanle was easier for him to deceive and use.

But now… Gu Jiming stared at the screen, while Fu Yanle was engrossed in counting An Shigou’s leg hairs. He murmured, “You’re better this way.”

But why did he suddenly revert to his old ways? Did his romantic obsession disappear because he broke up with Su Fengyao? Was Su Fengyao really that influential on Fu Yanle?

Gu Jiming felt a pang of sadness and immediately sent a message: 【Beat Su Fengyao up, right now!】

The unknown thug quickly replied: "Young Master Gu, it's only been half a month since the last attack; Su Fengyao's face is still bruised."

Gu Jiming slammed his fist on the screen: [I want him to stay bruised! Has he been seeing Fu Yanle lately?]

Unknown thug: [After being beaten up last time, he's been hiding in his room recovering. After all, with that appearance, he'd be laughed at if he went out. As for whether he contacted Young Master Fu by phone, that's unknown.]

Gu Jiming was barely satisfied and typed: [Keep an eye on him. If he dares to go to Fu Yanle, deal with him! Beat him every time he tries!]

Unknown thug: [Okay! But there's one more thing. The people we sent to stake out the place said Young Master Fu has moved. They followed his car a few times, but managed to shake him off each time. The man who's always with Young Master Fu is probably not an ordinary assistant.]

*

"You moved?"

Meng Xinqiu stared at her phone screen. "Yanle spends most of her time living at the Lu family's house and rarely returns to the Fu family's house. Why would she suddenly move? Do you know the address?"

"I don't know. Fu Shao's assistant is an amazing driver; we can't keep up," the bodyguard in black said. "I checked the assistant's background, but apart from his name being 'Xiao Qiao,' I couldn't find anything else about him."

“I’ve known Yan Le for so long, and I’ve never met this Xiao Qiao before. He just appeared out of nowhere. Yan Le takes him everywhere now, so he must trust him a lot.” Meng Xinqiu frowned. That assistant looked respectable and seemed quite capable. Could he really be Yan Le’s lover?

"There's one more thing... it's about Lin Qingtong." The bodyguard in black secretly observed Meng Xinqiu's face, seeing through the surface of fair and gentle skin, and noticed a faint green light.

Meng Xinqiu said, "Speak frankly."

"Here's the thing, the people we sent to follow Gu Jiming and Lin Qingtong a while ago said that the two haven't seen each other recently, but Lin Qingtong went to the hospital during that time, brought a thermos, and stayed in the ward for an hour."

The bodyguard in black took out a stack of photos and handed them over.

"Later, Lin Qingtong went to this person's house again, and changed her clothes when she came down. During that time, the same group of people put a sack on this person. After investigation, it was confirmed that they were from the Gu family and were probably acting on Gu Jiming's orders."

Meng Xinqiu took the photo, quickly flipped through it, and exclaimed in surprise, "This is... Su Fengyao?"

He examined it carefully, then breathed a sigh of relief, "It is indeed Su Fengyao."

Lin Qingtong and Su Fengyao... So that's why Yanle suddenly broke off her relationship with Su Fengyao, and why the Gu family has been making things difficult for the Su family all this time.

Su Fengyao, Gu Jiming, and Meng Xinqiu... Meng Xinqiu threw the photo into the trash can, his tone gloomy, "Go check if there are any people with '臣' in their names around Fu Yanle. From today onwards, you don't need to follow Lin Qingtong and Gu Jiming anymore."

"Okay." The bodyguard in black secretly felt sorry for him: Goodness, in this era, even a high-quality man like Meng Xinqiu is easily cheated on, and he even got cheated on twice... Lin Qingtong, amazing.

On the screen, Fu Yanle was arm wrestling with An Shigou at the request of his fans. His fair arms had beautiful lines and well-proportioned muscles, and the veins in the center of his arms were more prominent as he exerted himself.

Meng Xinqiu's breathing became heavy as he watched Fu Yanle and An Shigou press their foreheads together. Their long, thick eyelashes, like curved feather fans, trembled slightly, captivating and alluring. This sight reminded him of the first time he met Fu Yanle.

It was night again. Fu Yanle sat cross-legged on a bench in the Nanda Garden, holding a bowl of fried rice noodles in his hands. His eyelashes, wet with tears, were stuck together haphazardly. His cheeks, the tip of his nose, and his lips were all flushed red. From the side, he looked like a beautiful painting of a mountain sunset.

That concludes tonight's live stream. Please continue to support "Star 3"! Bye!

Fu Yanle and An Shigou's loud roar interrupted Meng Xinqiu's memories. He thought about the Fu Yanle of the past and the Fu Yanle who treated him coldly now, and he felt a pang of sadness in his heart.

With a flick of the finger, the live stream ended.

Fu Yanle stretched, then took off all his jewelry and said to An Shigou, "It's so late, don't go back."

An Shigou's ears burned, and he said shyly, "I'll sleep with you?"

“Of course—” Fu Yanle suddenly remembered that he was a married man, and quickly changed his words, “No! Come with me.”

"Oh." Not having to share a bed with a fairy, An Shigou felt both relieved and regretful. Upon hearing this, he quickly followed obediently.

Fu Yanle opened the door, walked to the stairwell, and glanced at the empty first floor. "It seems like everyone has gone back to rest."

"It's too late, don't bother others." An Shigou yawned. "I'd better go back to sleep."

"It'll be two or three o'clock by the time you get back." Fu Yanle grabbed An Shigou and shoved him back into the bedroom. "Alright, you can sleep in my room."

An Shigou looked completely bewildered. "And what about you?"

"I...I'll sleep in my brother's room." Fu Yanle slammed the door shut. "Go to sleep early, or you'll have nightmares!"

"Bang!"

An Shigou was slapped across the face by the door fan and said, "Aren't you going to change your sundress?!"

Author's Note:

Da Yu: Thank you, Xiao An.

Gou: ...Huh?

Xiao Fu: Huh?

Me: Ah!

On the third day of the seven-day retreat, I gradually felt a sense of exhaustion. (Wiping away tears)
