Chapter 30
Chen Shiman deleted him?
This realization made Gu Zhun stand there in a daze.
Did he delete him?
He was serious. He was Chen Shiman's financial backer. How could he treat his financial backer like that? He didn't expect Chen Shiman to be like those other canaries, always by his side, ready to come and go at will, a person who knew how to be kind and understanding. Of course, he knew Chen Shiman couldn't be that way, but at least he should respect his financial backer!
The fire in Gu Zhun's heart suddenly burned to his palate, and he couldn't breathe.
He looked at the big, glaring exclamation mark on the chat page and felt funny and helpless for the first time in his life.
This was the first time someone deleted him - of course, it could also be that he didn't notice that someone deleted him!
Gu Zhun jumped up from the bed, hands on his hips, "What are you doing? I didn't do anything wrong. This is so rude."
Standing barefoot on the soft sofa, Gu Zhun felt like he was sinking into a huge sweet and soft marshmallow base. The air around him was filled with high concentrations of sucrose, which stuck all the flowing air together and was flooded with a sweetness that seemed to make people faint.
Gu Zhun said nothing, walked barefoot on the soft carpet, quietly went to the dining table, sat on the gaming chair, picked up the book on the dining table and began to study attentively, trying to calm his turbulent heart.
He sat in the chair with his back straight, both hands on the table, looking intently at every word in the book.
From childhood to adulthood, Gu Zhun was always considered a good student in the eyes of his teachers. Adhering to the idea that life is very important for Chinese people, he was always trembling with fear, fearing that he would bring shame to his parents who were teachers - even though this could not win their love.
Therefore, books have long played the role of a confidant.
He distinguished right from wrong from books, perceived the marks left by the long river of time, and savored the world perceived by the authors... In countless sleepless nights, Gu Zhun kept books as his companions, using them to soothe his restless soul.
But only this time, the silent words couldn't calm him down.
So after being absent for the third time, Gu Zhun closed his book, sat down on the dining chair, poured himself a glass of ice water, and added a lot of ice cubes to it.
He swallowed it in one gulp and almost froze his throat.
Why is that?
Gu Zhun couldn't understand it.
Chen Shiman deleted him, probably because he left without saying goodbye in the morning. He could explain, but what was the point of saying nothing? Moreover, why did he kiss Chen Shiman? It was his first kiss, and he gave it to such a dissolute person in a daze?
Gu Zhun felt that he was really crazy at that time.
In the huge room, with neatly arranged furniture and spotless floor tiles, only the long marble dining table had a hint of life.
The air was filled with smoke, and the smoke that had just formed from the mouth quickly dissipated. There was ashes in the ashtray, and a thin layer of wine in the glass...
Can't help it? Gu Zhun thought.
He had to admit that in such an ambiguous environment: the messy bed, the dotted kiss marks, the bodies they had just explored, the affectionate eyes looking at him...such behaviors and environments would make people do some unwarranted behaviors.
So maybe it was only in that situation that I was possessed and couldn't control myself and gave that kiss.
"That must be it."
Gu Zhun talked to himself.
If not, why didn't he feel anything now? Why didn't he think about Chen Shiman at all? Besides, he was a person who had firmly lost faith in love. How could someone he had only known for no more than a month and a half touch his heart so easily?
If it were that simple, wouldn't he be too casual?
Gu Zhun nodded thoughtfully and put the tip of his index finger onto the square ice cube in the glass.
The coldness of the ice cubes touched his fingertips and then spread to his heart, extinguishing the heat in his heart. Afterwards, Gu Zhun quickly got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower. As for the rare mess on the table, he planned to clean it up when he got up tomorrow morning.
Unfortunately, Gu Zhun seemed to have overestimated himself, or perhaps underestimated the impact of kissing Chen Shiman on him. After taking a shower, he pretended to read a few pages of a book in bed, thinking about it over and over again, taking several photos and uploading them to Weibo, and then fell asleep contentedly.
Gu Zhun closed his eyes. Perhaps it was because the air conditioner was turned on too high today, or the cicadas outside the window were too noisy, or the street lights outside were too bright. At 1:30 in the morning, Gu Zhun, with a messy head, reluctantly cleaned up the garbage on the dining table.
After all this was done, he collapsed on the bed like a zombie, not looking like an idol at all.
What on earth are you trying to do!
Gu Zhun wailed!

Early in the morning, when Chen Shiman woke up, he first felt dizzy, and then his throat seemed to hurt.
He stood up slowly, thinking back to what happened last night. He didn't know where he got the wine glass from, nor who handed it to him, but he drank it carelessly amidst laughter and joy. Then there was Wang Yanyue's pale face, and he angrily scolded everyone present. In the end, it was the bar owner who stepped in and suppressed the matter.
Chen Shiman didn't remember much about what happened afterwards, and he woke up in this hotel.
I didn’t lose my virginity! Shit!
Chen Shiman looked under the quilt in panic. Fortunately, his clothes were still on and had not been changed by anyone else.
"What are you looking at?"
Chen Shiman looked up when he heard the voice and saw Wang Yanyue standing with his hand on his waist and leaning against the door. He looked lazy and seemed to be still sleepy.
"I--"
Chen Shiman was about to speak when he was interrupted by a sudden ringing of the phone.
He picked up the phone and saw that it was from his brother!
"My brother's phone!"
"Answer it." Wang Yanyue shrugged, looking indifferent.
At this moment, the ringing of the cell phone was like a death bell, approaching Chen Shiman's lifeblood little by little.
It would be fine if he didn't do anything wrong, but the main thing is that he did something wrong. Moreover, from childhood to adulthood, everything he did did not escape his brother's eyes.
Chen Shiman was in a state of internal conflict until Wang Yanyue could no longer bear it and ran over to answer his call. Chen Shiman almost cursed, but Wang Yanyue was so quick that he had already run away.
"Hey, brother." Chen Shiman spoke flatteringly. Although there was no one in front of him, his demeanor and behavior were as if there was a brother standing in front of him, and he was bowing down to him because he had done something bad.
"Where are you?" There was no emotion in Chen Mocheng's voice.
"I'm at home, what's wrong?" Chen Shiman's hands were shaking as he held the phone.
There was silence for a second on the other end of the phone, then a laugh broke out, and then, he said playfully, "Manman, do you know you're not very good at lying?"
Chen Shiman: “…”
"Open the door." Chen Mocheng spat out two words coldly.
"What?"
"I received a photo from a friend last night. Want to show it to you? I remember I told you not to run around, huh? You're not planning on coming back yet?"
Chen Mocheng's tone was so casual and soothing, like a song - no, Chen Shiman felt that it was the calm before the storm.
He held his breath and dared not say a word.
"Manman, I've booked a plane ticket for you, please come back soon."
Without waiting for Chen Shiman to answer, Chen Mocheng hung up the phone.
The busy tone on the phone sounded like Chen Shiman's heartbeat. He got out of bed like a zombie, held onto the door and said dully, "Wang Yanyue, I'm done!"
"ah--"
Chen Shiman covered his eyes instantly and turned around hurriedly - why did he see a naked man in the bedroom next door? That's not right, why was he not wearing a shirt!
"Wang Yanyue, what are you doing? Come out!" Chen Shiman stamped his feet anxiously. Could it be that Wang Yanyue had brought people back last night? How could it be that he was hungover on one side while Wang Yanyue was fighting passionately on the other side? This was too unfriendly. God, weren't they afraid that he would suddenly show up?
Chen Shiman wanted to cry but had no tears, and felt that his eyes were dirty.
Wang Yanyue rushed over upon hearing the noise, and accused the naked man, ordering him to return to the room. The man pinched Wang Yanyue's chin and looked at Chen Shiman, who was lost in thought. Finally, Wang Yanyue had no choice but to push the man into the bedroom, lock the door, and then knock on Chen Shiman's shoulder: "Alright, let him in."
Chen Shiman turned around awkwardly, "Why aren't you picky? Aren't you afraid of getting sick?"
Wang Yanyue was stunned for a moment, "You didn't—never mind, did your brother find out?"
"Yeah, he said he didn't have any spies. He found out last night. Anyway, I'm dead today."
"Everyone knows that Chen Mocheng is a brother-con. Why don't you go back and throw a tantrum? Okay, hurry up and clean up. Don't miss the plane or he'll get even more angry." Wang Yanyue said it lightly. He was not worried about these things at all. After all, Chen Mocheng was Chen Shiman's biological brother.
Chen Shiman curled his lips, "Okay, what about you, will you come back with me?"
"Me? I have another one here."
After saying this, Wang Yanyue quickly went into the bedroom without any intention of seeing Chen Shiman off. Only then did Chen Shiman realize that this was simply the best example of forgetting one's loyalty for the sake of beauty!
Chen Shiman cleaned up simply. Fortunately, after a day, the kiss marks on his body were almost gone.
Chen Shiman slept very soundly on the plane, and was not awakened until the tinnitus in his ears when the plane was descending.
Chen Shiman rubbed his ears and sighed.
The plane landed smoothly. Chen Shiman picked up his luggage and took a big sip of water. He had clearly bought a first-class ticket, but he was unwilling to get off the plane until all the people had left. The same went for his cell phone, which he would not turn on until he got off the plane.
As soon as the camera was turned on, news about Chen Mocheng immediately flooded in:
[AAA brother: I'm waiting for you at the airport. Come right away after you get off the plane. Don't dawdle, or I'll break your legs!]
Why do they say that the elder brother knows the younger brother best? Chen Shiman wailed several times, reluctantly, like a little girl in the feudal era, unable to move her feet, walking in small steps. It took her half an hour to finally reach Chen Mocheng.
Chen Mocheng said: "Come here! Lawless!"
He grabbed Chen Shiman by the neck, threw him into the car, and tied him up with a rope.
"No, brother, this is a society ruled by law. If you try to use force on me, I'll sue you!"
"Sue, go ahead and sue!"
