Chapter 56 Husband-Husband Relationship
Ji Yunzhou was in the kitchen, holding a salt spoon in his hand, gritting his teeth as he added the third spoonful of salt to the pot of pork rib soup.
"You're so salty you little bastard."
It's not his fault, really.
Any thousand-year-old ghost who is furious with a young man in his early twenties will add a few more spoonfuls of salt to the soup.
What's more, this ghost is Ji Yunzhou, who only wants Gu Yuan to wake up.
Thinking of the text message he received during the day, Ji Yunzhou felt a tightness in his chest again.
He calls you "dear" sweetly in text messages, but becomes a completely different person when he gets home, changing his attitude faster than turning the pages of a book.
Who wouldn't be angry with this kind of disparity?
"I must have died with my brain broken."
For the one hundred and eighth time, Ji Yunzhou felt that his marriage to Gu Yuan might be a mistake, and stirred the soup in the pot angrily.
But if you ask him to 'divorce' Gu Yuan, he will make sure you never see the sun again.
The only thing left in the kitchen was the bubbling pot of soup.
Gu Yuan sat cross-legged on the sofa in the living room, frowning.
The picture on his phone was still the news about Ji family’s youngest son.
Why?
Why does Ji Yunzhou act like nothing happened?
If I were a rich young man, how arrogant would I be?
Well, Ji Yunzhou is arrogant and wild!
Ji Yunzhou had clearly returned to the Ji family, the wealthy Ji family that was known to everyone in the city.
Why did you come and live here with him?
Although this apartment is very big, what about the Ji family?
It is said that the Ji family’s mansion has eight toilets alone!
So why?
Gu Yuan's imagination began to expand rapidly.
Could it be...
Did Ji Yunzhou want to keep him as a canary?
That's not right. Shouldn't canaries be kept in golden cages and fed with good food and drink?
Who wouldn't pay the canary?
He has to make money by fortune telling!
Or...
Ji Yunzhou doesn't intend to let others know about their relationship?
The more Gu Yuan thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.
Yes, yes, that must be it!
A rich young man keeps a mistress, but is afraid that his family will find out, so he has to hide her in a golden house.
"Pooh!"
Gu Yuan spat angrily: "Old man! Scumbag!"
He completely ignored the fact that Ji Yunzhou's current body was only twenty-five years old, not much older than him.
After all, the age difference between their souls is over a thousand years, so calling him an "old man" is not too much, right?
As for the "scumbag"...
Gu Yuan believes that any attempt to conceal a relationship is the behavior of a scumbag!
Ji Yunzhou in the kitchen sneezed violently.
"Strange, ghosts can catch colds too?"
He rubbed his nose and sprinkled some coriander into the soup.
Although Gu Yuan doesn't dislike coriander, putting coriander in pork rib soup?
Hard to comment...
These two people, one adding salt to the food in the kitchen, and the other imagining a tragic love drama in the living room, perfectly illustrate what it means to "sleep in the same bed but dream different dreams."
In fact, after Gu Yuan's death, he only lost 500 years of cultivation, but he exchanged the blood contract for a marriage contract on the grounds that he would serve the underworld as a ghost.
Help Gu Yuan keep his life hanging on.
"Beauty can lead to mistakes."
Ji Yunzhou later reflected that he must have been attracted to Gu Yuan's face.
Gu Yuan does have a pretty face...
But Ji Yunzhou has lived for thousands of years, what kind of beauties has he not seen?
He firmly believed that he was not such a superficial ghost.
So why is that?
Ji Yunzhou was puzzled, he only knew that he didn't want Gu Yuan to die.
“It’s time to eat!”
Ji Yunzhou carried the pot of the incredibly salty pork rib soup he had carefully prepared out of the kitchen and placed it heavily on the dining table. "I made pork rib soup today."
Gu Yuan glanced warily at the pot of soup with coriander floating in it, then looked at Ji Yunzhou's fake smile.
"Did you poison me?" he asked bluntly.
Ji Yunzhou's smile froze: "How is that possible? Am I that kind of person?"
"You're that kind of ghost."
Gu Yuan pointed out the facts, but still walked to the dining table reluctantly.
I have to say that although Ji Yunzhou's ghost quality is questionable, his cooking skills are top-notch.
During the time they've been together, Gu Yuan's stomach has been completely won over.
Gu Yuan sat down, scooped a spoonful of soup, blew on it, and was about to put it into his mouth when he suddenly remembered something and looked up: "Why did you move back home?"
Ji Yunzhou was looking at him expectantly while drinking the soup, but when asked this question, his face darkened again.
"We are husband and wife, isn't it normal for us to live together?" he said as a matter of course.
"Besides, this is my apartment. Where else can I live if not here?"
“And it’s close to the company.”
Gu Yuan narrowed his eyes and automatically ignored the husband-husband relationship he mentioned: "Ji Group's headquarters is in the east of the city, and here is in the west of the city, a full two hours' drive away."
Ji Yunzhou: "...I like long-distance driving."
Gu Yuan: "Don't you hate trouble the most?"
Ji Yunzhou took a deep breath and suppressed his displeasure: "The soup is getting cold."
Gu Yuan's attention was indeed diverted. He looked down at the spoonful of soup, hesitated for a moment, and then put it into his mouth.
For the next second, time seemed to stand still.
Ji Yunzhou looked at Gu Yuan's face expectantly, waiting for the expected reaction.
Gu Yuan's eyes suddenly widened, and a variety of emotions flashed across his face, including shock, pain, and disbelief.
Finally, he spat out all the soup with a "puff" sound, which just happened to spray Ji Yunzhou in the face.
"Ji Yunzhou!"
Gu Yuan jumped up and rushed to the kitchen faucet, rinsing his mouth while roaring: "Are you going to murder me?"
Ji Yunzhou wiped the soup off his face and looked at Gu Yuan's embarrassed back. He suddenly found the scene a little funny.
In fact, he actually laughed.
"You're still laughing!"
Gu Yuan turned around, his face flushed with anger: "You definitely did it on purpose!"
Ji Yunzhou tried hard to suppress his laughter and put on a serious expression: "Maybe there's something wrong with the salt spoon."
"A question about the spoon?"
Gu Yuan gritted his teeth: "Is your salt spoon as big as the pot?"
Ji Yunzhou shrugged: "Drink if you want."
Gu Yuan was so angry that he wanted to put the blame on Ji Yunzhou, but after looking at his expensive high-end suit and thinking about his wallet, he finally gave up the impulse.
"I don't want to drink anymore!"
He sat down angrily: "Order takeout!"
Ji Yunzhou raised his eyebrows: "Takeout is unhealthy."
"Healthier than your poisonous soup!"
Gu Yuan took out his phone and started browsing the food delivery app: "I want Malatang, extra spicy, with double the chili oil!"
Ji Yunzhou frowned in disapproval: "Eating too spicy food is bad for your stomach."
Gu Yuan looked up and glared at him: "What do you care!"
After saying that, he continued to look for takeaway shops, muttering to himself:
"It's so salty, I need something super spicy to make it go away..."
Then Gu Yuan caught a glimpse of the fried chicken burger that Ji Yunzhou brought back for him. He was thinking about how to get it past Ji Yunzhou.
Ji Yunzhou noticed his gaze and the corners of his mouth curled up.
He reached out and threw the thing into the trash can.
Gu Yuan: "!!!"
