Chapter 23 part1

Tranny placed his hands on his hips as he reprimanded Baby Face. The latter bowed his head and said nothing. His shoulders were trembling, obviously from all the crying. Qi Le looked at them, then at Ye Shuichuan and asked in a low voice, “Gē, was I like him before this?”

Ye Shuichuan put Qi Le’s luggage away. “He only started behaving like this recently, but you’ve been that way for four years.”

“...” Qi Le said, “How awful. Why didn’t you just kill me?”

“I was this close to giving up on you, but who knew that you would suddenly see the light,” Ye Shuichuan happily leaned in with a smile, held Qi Le’s face and gave him huge smooch. “That’s right, just stay this way. If you go back to your old ways, I’ll beat you to death!"

Qi Le wiped his face. “What do you think is in his head and mine before? I really don’t understand how people like this think.”

“Ai, actually this sort of thing...” Ye Shuichuan leaned against the car with his arms folded and thought about it, apparently proud of his own wisdom and maturity. “It’s hard to say.”

You can just say that you don’t know, thank you very much. Qi Le pursed his lips and curiously looked at the other two, “Is it so hard being an older brother? Is there so much to worry about?"

“Are you talking about Xiao Shu?” Ye Shuichuan looked at him and said, “He really isn’t a kind person in fact. That’s his biological brother – same mother, different father. That’s why he’s meddling so much. Otherwise, he wouldn’t even care about that little bitch’s life or death."

“It turns out that they’re related by blood.” Qi Le turned around and asked, “What about you? Why are you so kind to me?”

“Because I think that you and I are quite alike. Both of us came out of the closet and we’re just as silly and simple-minded.” Ye Shuichuan added lightly, “Don’t look at me like that. I’m not as cheap as you.”

“... Fine.” Qi Le said, “I came out of the closet because everything got out of hand but what about you?”

“I didn’t want to get married or lie to my spouse. Of course, I came out of the closet mainly because I had a boyfriend. When I was a freshman, my family severed all ties with me and kicked me out of the house after I came out.” Ye Shuichuan said softly, “I remember you said that you would only like Ning Xiao in this life and you would only give your body to him. Although they all think you are stupid, I used to think the same way as well. I originally planned to give myself to my boyfriend when I came out of the closet, but when I was kicked out of my house and moved back to school, he had decided to go abroad. Before he left, he said that he wanted to do it with me. I thought, since I liked him anyways, I would just give him my first time but I didn’t get the chance to tell him that."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Qi Le was surprised. “Why?”

Ye Shuichuan snickered, “Because I found out that he drugged me. He didn’t intend to let me go back that night.”

Qi Le was shocked. “...And then?”

Ye Shuichuan grinned, “Laozi kicked him in the crotch and slapped him. I ran out and bumped into someone outside. I ended up sleeping with him while I was hazy from the drugs. When I woke up the next day, he had already left. I don’t even know what he looked like.”

Qi Le was speechless.

“In fact, I’m quite happy that Ning Xiao is so annoyed with you. It’s better than him fooling around with you.” Ye Shuichuan rubbed Qi Le’s head. “But I’m happier now that you’ve seen the light. Next time, be more careful. If someone bullies you, let me know. Gē will help you.”

Qi Le felt that this man was really kind to him. After he was hospitalized, the original owner’s bunch of so called little brothers didn’t even visit him. Only this man had accompanied him. He felt so moved he went to hug him. “Gē, from now on, I’ll treat you like my real older brother.“

Ye Shuichuan patted him on the back with a smile.

Gu Bai came downstairs only to see this scene. His gaze went cold with displeasure but he didn’t have any right to say anything. He could only comfort himself that one was a zero and the other would be a zero sooner or later. At most, he was just a best friend. But even so, he was still unhappy and stared at them coldly, coughing dryly.

Ye Shuichuan looked over and seemed to understand what he meant. He let go of a certain someone and threw him into Gu Bai’s arms.

Qi Le was caught off guard and cried out in fright, “Ah-“

Gu Bai happily caught him, handed the bag to Ye Shuichuan, then bowed his head and asked impassively, “Are you okay?”

“I’m fine,” Qi Le patted his fragile heart, almost forgetting that this older brother of his was quite good but was a little off his rocker. He pouted, “Don’t care about him, he’s just like that.”

Gu Bai nodded and changed the subject. “That’s the last bag. All your stuff’s moved out."

“Mmm, I’ll go now then. Thank you for today.” Qi Le waved his hand and was about to get in the car, but turned around to find Ye Shuichuan had already called Tranny and the Baby Face to get in. He revved the engine and was about to leave. Qi Le crazily ran after his car. “Gē, I’m still here. What about me?!"

Ye Shuichuan poked his head out the window, asking in surprise, “Shouldn’t you take Gu Bai’s car?”

“He and I are just friends. The fact that he’s here to help me move is already good enough, alright?!"

“We’re not done moving yet. Get him to follow us so he can help you carry your luggage up and we’ll have lunch together later.” Ye Shuichuan rubbed Qi Le’s head. “Why are you still so stupid when you’ve seen the light, huh? You have to make good use of this opportunity. So, it’s settled then.” When he finished speaking, he hit the accelerator and left him behind.

Qi Le, “......”

Damn you, that’s Laozi’s car, isn’t it? Is there any justice left in this world?!

Qi Le turned his head stiffly and asked, “Um... are you busy? If you still have something to do, you can go first. I’ll take a taxi on my own...”

Gu Bai looked at his innocent little eyes and couldn’t wait to carry him home but he on the surface, he glanced at him indifferently and generously offered, “Get in.”

Qi Le jumped for joy, quickly getting inside the car.

Gu Bai started the engine and reversed his car. He glanced at the apartment before turning the car around and leaving. He soon caught up to Ye Shuichuan and followed behind his car. They passed several streets and arrived at that man’s apartment. He paid special attention and made sure to memorize the address before entering the residential area.

They all helped Qi Le move his things upstairs, then Tranny and Baby Face left. Gu Bai stood in the living room and looked around. He felt that the place was still alright. It was much better than living with Ning Xiao anyways. However, he had to find a way to get Xiao Le to live with him as soon as possible. Only then would he be at ease.
