Chapter 37
Chen Shiman returned to the room and turned the air conditioner to the lowest temperature, but even so, it was difficult to reduce the burning and uncontrollable heat in his heart.
Gu Zhun's apology seemed to have extinguished all of Chen Shiman's anger over the past two days, allowing his churning stomach to eat well.
It was then that Chen Shiman realized that he didn't ask for much. Gu Zhun's unconscious apology in his dream, whether sincere or false, could make him forget all his previous anger and panic.
Now, only the small table lamp on the bedside was still working in this room. Chen Shiman leaned against the wall with his back propped up with a pillow, playing with a doll in his hand. The bright white light tore through the entire night sky, leaving behind this small area for Chen Shiman to think so hard.
It’s better to forgive him. He is quite pitiful, and... after all, we will definitely see each other again in the future.
You see, even in this situation, Chen Shiman has never thought about leaving Gu Zhun. Perhaps in the deepest part of his heart, he has already planted the seeds of Gu Zhun, and silently, the seeds have taken root and sprouted.
His attitude is not bad. After all, we are in a cooperative relationship, so let's not make things so complicated. Let's both take a step back. Chen Shiman thought so.
He held the doll in his hand. He and Chen Mocheng had caught this doll in the arcade some time ago. His brother's skills were average, and it cost him 80 yuan to catch this one.
Thinking of Chen Mocheng...
Chen Shiman suddenly felt his scalp tingling.
If he ran away from home like this, Chen Mocheng would definitely find him if nothing unexpected happened. Now he didn't have a mobile phone, so in that case, his brother would come to his house to look for him.
He thought that he should send Gu Zhun away quickly tomorrow and then return to his own house; or he should send Gu Zhun away before dawn and then go home to apologize, predicting his brother's actions in advance and leaving him with no way out.
Chen Shiman, who thought his idea was perfect, fell asleep soundly and had an extremely sweet dream.
It was already dawn in his dream, and the sun was hanging high in the sky. When he woke up, he found himself in his own house. He went out with sleepy eyes and saw Gu Zhun leisurely making breakfast in the kitchen. When he saw him come out, he was very considerate and brought him a glass of water and kissed the corner of his mouth.
Then, the door of the guest room opposite the bedroom was slowly opened. Chen Shiman drank the warm water, still shocked at how considerate Gu Zhun was. The next second, just as the water was about to be swallowed down his throat, he saw Chen Mocheng, dressed in a suit and meticulous, walking out of the guest room.
Immediately, the water that should have flowed into the stomach suddenly flowed back and sprayed out of the mouth. Streams of water fell to the ground, and some sprayed on Gu Zhun's coat. He was panicked and didn't know what he had done wrong.
Chen Shiman raised his hand tremblingly and waved, shouting, "Brother, why are you here?"
Chen Mocheng in the dream said, "Didn't you call me here? Gu Zhun, I'm leaving first. You can take care of Manman."
After saying that, Chen Mocheng left with his phone without even eating.
Chen Shiman was left stunned. How could his brother and Gu Zhun get along so well?
Chen Shiman mechanically turned his head to look at Gu Zhun. He was still as handsome and elegant as when they first met, but he was no longer in that condescending and arrogant attitude. Instead, he had restrained his hostility and brilliance, and was wearing an apron, looking like a real husband!
Chen Shiman thought, Oh my God, this life is so wonderful.
Being the brother of a domineering boss and the husband of a celebrity, this is simply a dream life!
"Um--"
A hand came out from nowhere and pinched Chen Shiman's nose, making it impossible for him to breathe.
"Chen Shiman, why haven't you gotten up yet? You're so lazy."
A dissatisfied voice came from above.
Chen Shiman was forced to open his eyes and look straight ahead. What he saw was Gu Zhun's huge face.
Chen Shiman: ...
No wonder, it was this guy who pinched his nose and forced him to wake up when he was asleep. I was finally about to forgive him last night, but he did this again.
Chen Shiman slapped Gu Zhun on the arm, turned over and prepared to go back to sleep.
"Chen Shiman, you haven't been to work for many days, otherwise I will deduct your salary." Gu Zhun threatened.
Chen Shiman covered his ears. Gu Zhun in his dream had been so virtuous and considerate, but how come it was all gone when he woke up? Could he just go back to sleep and continue dreaming? He really didn't want to face the petty-minded Gu Zhun in reality!
"Chen Shiman, get up quickly and take me to the company." Gu Zhun continued, but he sat down on the edge of the bed without saying a word, looking at the back of Chen Shiman's head, and struggling to restrain the urge to rub that round back of the head.
"Sister Weiwei and Xiao Jiang have missed you a lot these past few days, and fans really like the photos you took. We can consider giving you a raise." Gu Zhun talked to himself, ignoring Chen Shiman's attitude.
Perhaps he felt that it was the greatest luck and honor for Chen Shiman to meet him, or perhaps he was still in a high position to give these things away.
Chen Shiman's ears were about to get calluses from listening to this, but he didn't care about money. All he wanted now was to sleep.
But Gu Zhun had no intention of letting him continue sleeping.
So Chen Shiman sat up irritably and cursed: "Ahhh Gu Zhun, you are so annoying!"
Gu Zhun didn't think so. He just came to call a worker to work. What was wrong with that?
On the contrary, it was Chen Shiman who was crying and begging to be his personal assistant, and now he is like this after just a few days.
"Okay, get up, we'll go to the company later."
Chen Shiman muttered softly: "I'm not going."
He hadn't finished his work yet, so going to the company now would only bring him trouble. He had to go home and appease his brother first, otherwise he wouldn't have any pocket money for this month, the next month, and the next month.
"You're not going? Why?" Gu Zhun couldn't believe it, but he still maintained superficial politeness.
Chen Shiman thought about it, considering whether he could tell this matter.
His long silence made Gu Zhun even more irritated.
Gu Zhun only waited for Chen Shiman for a minute or two, then said, "Hurry up and wash up," and prepared to go out to make breakfast.
The tone was neither too good nor too bad, but Chen Shiman instinctively knew that Gu Zhun must be unhappy, so he spoke at the moment when the other party was about to step out of the door:
"--Oh! I ran away secretly. I have to go back soon, otherwise my parents will go crazy." Chen Shiman's voice became softer and softer. He knew that this was not something he could say.
Gu Zhun turned around and felt the veins on his forehead throbbing. He was so upset that he didn't know how to scold Chen Shiman.
Even in this state, she still wants to order a man. How can she be so horny? If he hadn't seen her, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to get out of bed and go home today!
etc--
Run away from home secretly?
He caught these words and asked tentatively: "Are you being put under house arrest at home?"
"Yeah." At this time, Chen Shiman didn't care about whether it was embarrassing or not. He got up and went into the bathroom to brush his teeth.
Gu Zhun then asked, "What did you do?"
Chen Shiman: ...
How could he describe this to Gu Zhun? If he said it, it would expose the fact that he was a rich second-generation, so he chose to keep quiet.
"Does your family know what you are doing?" This was the only conclusion Gu Zhun could think of.
After spending some time together, he could sense that Chen Shiman's family must be well-off, which allowed him to be so active in the entertainment industry.
His family had no objection to him being an entertainment reporter before, but now they suddenly put him in solitary confinement. They must have discovered something that was intolerable.
Looking back so far, the most outrageous thing Chen Shiman has done is probably to be his own lover.
Gu Zhun thought, if he were a parent, and found out that his beloved child was having an affair with someone else, breaking his legs would be the least of his worries. Thinking of this, Gu Zhun suddenly felt a little guilty. After all, he was the one who dragged Chen Shiman into this trouble, but his status made it difficult for him to go directly to his parents to explain the situation.
In that case, let's give Chen Shiman more time.
While Gu Zhun was thinking about this, Chen Shiman had already washed up and was preparing to change clothes.
Gu Zhun coughed and said, "In that case, go back and take care of your family affairs before coming back - if your family still supports you to continue."
He didn't sound very confident in what he said later.
Since Chen Shiman's family knew what he was doing, they would definitely not approve of him continuing to do it - maybe this would be the last time they met.
Gu Zhun even felt a little regretful, after all, his body and Chen Shiman's were indeed extremely compatible.
"Do you want me to take you there?" Gu Zhun tried again.
Chen Shiman: "No, I'll go back by myself." If Gu Zhun was seen by his family, he wouldn't be able to leave the house; if Gu Zhun saw the conditions of his family, it would also be a bloody storm.
Let him face it alone.
Gu Zhun didn't say anything else and quietly went to the kitchen to make breakfast.
When Chen Shiman came out, Gu Zhun had already prepared breakfast. The food here was limited, so he only made a simple sandwich.
Chen Shiman was really hungry, so he took a big bite and praised the dish highly.
Seeing Chen Shiman eating with relish, Gu Zhun gave him his share as well.
"You don't want to eat?"
"To lose weight, you can only eat boiled vegetables."
Chen Shiman nodded to show his understanding. As a celebrity, if you want to make a living and earn so much money, you must pay a price.
Gu Zhun went to pour another glass of milk. Chen Shiman didn't think there was anything inappropriate, and Gu Zhun didn't seem to notice it either. It seemed that their relationship had always been like this. It seemed that the support was unequal, but it was always Gu Zhun who took care of Chen Shiman.
"Okay, I'm done eating, thank you!" Chen Shiman said, "Then I'll go first." He wanted to go back quickly, hoping that his brother had not gone to the company yet.
Gu Zhun looked at him and finally persuaded him, "Go back and talk to your family, okay?"
Chen Shiman nodded heavily, "Okay, bye."
After leaving the community, Chen Shiman remembered that he didn't have a mobile phone. Fortunately, there were always taxis parked around the community. He hurriedly got into the taxi, told his home address, and continued to catch up on his sleep in the car, but this time, he didn't have another sweet dream.

In the Chen family villa, Chen Mocheng slowly savored the exquisite breakfast prepared by the chef, showing no emotion.
He waited until he heard the nanny's movement at the door before putting down his chopsticks, picking up the book on the table and carefully studying the ins and outs inside.
