21. President: Special Gift

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

Su Bei instantly rekindled his hope, “You can do that?”

Feng Xinglang nodded, “A little.”

However, far from a little!

Right after Feng Xinglang took the gun from Su Bei’s hands, he immediately made a few shots, all hit the bull’s eye.

At that moment, Feng Xinglang was changing into another person, just like the living Shura.

Su Bei was stunned.

Feng Xinglang then stuffed the gun back to Su Bei’s hand, holding his hand, “Watch!”

Su Bei now came to his sense, carefully listened to the skills Feng Xinglang taught him.

Feng Xinglang and he were so close that they could even feel the temperature of each other’s body.

At first, Su Bei didn’t notice, but later he became a bit uncomfortable.

Feng Xinglang’s deep, magnetic voice rang in his ear. “Focus!”

Su Bei was forced to shoot for a whole day, and his whole arm was a little hard to lift.

It was sore, but at least he wouldn’t miss the target now. Congratulations!

When the sun was about to set, Feng Xinglang drove Su Bei back to the villa.

Before going to bed, Feng Xinglang gave a box to Su Bei. He told Su Bei, “Protect yourself.”

As he opened it, he was startled.

Inside it was a small handgun, palm size.

Su Bei was a bit nervous. How could Feng Xinglang have contraband? So horrifying!

Feng Xinglang raised his eyebrows, “What? Don’t you like it?”

Su Bei shook his head. “No, no,” he asked tentatively. “But, isn’t it a bit appropriate to own a private gun?”

Feng Xinglang’s lips curved, “If you are not afraid of death, you can choose not to take it.”

As his words fell, Su Bei immediately held it in his arms, “I am afraid of death, very. Mr. Feng, thank you for your generosity.”

Why think so much? His life was the most important!

After that, Su Bei resumed the life of eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating, and still asked Feng Xinglang if he loved him or not every day.

He still sent him a message to ask, but the answer was always the same.

Cheng Qianxiao also quieted down. There was nothing abnormal.

Such a perfect life made Su Bei feel it was so not real.

His relationship with Feng Xinglang was just like that, neither to close nor too remote.

The captivating progress was like icebound, there was no reaction for a long time.

Because Feng Xinglang gave his additional card to Su Bei, Su Bei could spend money without any limit now.

He felt that after all this time, his mother should be mollified now.

After all, she was the mother of this body. It was not good to stay stalemated like this.

So he bought some presents and planned to go home.

When Su Bei went back, he saw the loli girl was accompanying his mother to leaf through the photo album.

He called, “Mom.”

His mother’s gentle smile immediately sank. “Who are you and how did you get in here?” She said grimly.

All right! Still not forgiving him!

Su Bei put things on the table, saying, “I’m really sorry, I took the wrong house. Just take those things as reparation.”

And then he left.

His mother was so angry. How could she give birth to such a son? Didn’t he even know to say some soft words to coax her?

The loli girl covered her mouth and smiled, brother Su Bei and his mother were so much alike.

After walking out of home, Su Bei received a call from a stranger, wanting to see him.

Because Su Bei did now know this phone number, he just took it as a voice phishing.

But the owner of this phone number really persevered and made several calls in succession.

Su Bei could only put it through again, apparently the other side became a bit impatient.

She told Su Bei that she was Feng Xinglang’s mother and wanted to see him.

Su Bei’s first reaction was to call Feng Xinglang and asked him if he had a mother.

22. President: Worth Five Hundred Thousand

As clever as Feng Xinglang was, he directly asking Su Bei, “She came to you?”

Su Bei played with the pen in his hand, absent-minded, “Hmm…She said she wants to see me. I can imagine the scenario throwing a few million in my face and asking me to leave you or something like that.”

Feng Xinglang’s deep laughing reached Su Bei’s ear through the phone, “No.”

Su Bei thought that ‘no’ Feng Xinglang said was that his mother would not give him money to let him leave her son, so he said, “But things like meeting parents, I am really nervous about that.”

Feng Xinglang was silent for a moment. “Don’t think too much. If there is anything, just call me.”

With this bigwig’s support, Su Bei found his backbone, he said in high spirits, “Then I will go!”

After hanging up the phone, Su Bei threw the paintbrush, put on a hoodie and went out.

One may ask, is he really going to meet his boyfriend’s mother? Why wear so casually?

Su Bei would tell you, that was to give his mother an approachable feeling.

He arrived at the café early, Feng Xinglang’s mother hadn’t arrived yet.

Su Bei could only order a cup of coffee and wait.

Soon it was half an hour.

And a middle-aged noblewoman walked into the café.

She fastidiously sized up and down at Su Bei, a gleam of disdain flashing in her eyes, then came straight to the point. She took out a check, “Leave my son.”

Su Bei had a burst of excitement! Here we go! The novel’s one-size-fits-all routine! Throw money!

He picked up the check with a trembling hand, and then there was silence, a long silence.

Su Bei’s emoji library was a bit confused, did not know what emoji would be more appropriate.

He took a deep breath. “Half a million?”

Feng Xinglang is only worth 500,000? It was a huge shock!

The noblewoman looked at Su Bei with disdain, “What? Too little? Half a million is already a lot for you ordinary people!”

Su Bei had question marks all over his face. What made Feng Xinglang’s mother think he was an ordinary person?

This body had more than half a million pocket money in last month, okay?

So, was this woman hired to humiliate him?

No, it was supposed to slap Feng Xinglang in the face, who was only worth half a million.

And he also just realized Feng Xinglang’s so-called ‘no’ was his mother would not give millions, but only half a million, right? That was really his bio mother!

Su Bei coughed a bit, “Can I take it this way? In your eyes, Feng Xinglang is only worth 500,000?”

Fortunately, the lady had some sense. She sneered, “No, it means you’re only worth half a million.”

Su Bei nodded to show that he got it.

He called Feng Xinglang directly in front of the woman.

As Feng Xinglang answered the phone, Su Bei said, “It is said that I am only worth 500,000.”

Feng Xinglang chuckled, the voice as affectionate as always, “Be good, I will give you five million. Go home early.”

748, “Captivating bar increased by 1%, current progress 81%.”

Su Bei directly hung up the phone. So stingy! Just one percent up!?

He looked at the noblewoman, “I think five million suits me better. Goodbye.”

The noblewoman’s eyes went cold. “Gloves are off!”

Just as Su Bei felt something was wrong, he passed out.

The lady waved her hand. “It’s only a minor character. Throw him into the sea.”

Yes, of course Cheng Qianxiao did not tell her who Su Bei was.

So the noblewoman thought that Su Bei was just a nobody

In order to get rid of Su Bei, Cheng Qianxiao really resorted to extreme measures.

Feng Xinglang who got hung up by Su Bei withdrew his smile, and then made another call, he asked in a deep voice, “Any new progress?”

23. President: Electric Shock

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

No one knew what the person on the other end of the phone said, Feng Xinglang’s face instantly darkened, and he spat out only one word coldly, “Action!”

Before long, Feng Xinglang’s face suddenly became twisted, and his eyes became sharp and and frightening.

When Su Bei woke up, he completely had no idea where he was being imprisoned.

All he knew was that the light was weak. He breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he was still alive!

He leaned against the wall with an attitude of take things as they come, without the slightest fear of being kidnapped.

He had no idea how long it had been passed, the whole space brightened up, dazzling.

Su Bei also saw clearly the layout of the room, a lot of instruments he had not seen before, let alone what they were used for.

A group of people in white gowns came in one by one. One of them held a handkerchief against his nose and squinted at Su Bei with disdain, “Don’t be afraid, little kid. I just want to talk to you.”

Su Bei leaned against the wall like he had no bones, grinning, “Although I am a little kid, you can’t lie to me? Why would you tie me up if you just want to talk to me?”

The man smiled. “If we talk can talk it through, you will be untied.”

He raised his hand, someone took a stool over. Then he sat down on the chair, coughed twice, “I want to ask you to do me a favor.”

Su Bei nodded. “Just shoot.”

The man seemed satisfied with Su Bei’s performance, and his voice eased down a little bit. “Actually it’s not a big deal, but I just want you to send a gift to Feng Xinglang.”

Su Bei smiled brightly with that pair of peach blossom eyes, “What if I say no?”

The man did not get angry, but slowly took out a very small chip, “It’s ok even if you don’t want to, I’ll make you willing to do it.”

Then those people in the white gowns pulled him up from the ground and took him to the place where the instruments were.

The man said unhurriedly, “I’m going to plant this chip in your head, and if you don’t want to help, I’m afraid I have to give you a little hard time.”

Although Su Bei did not know what he would go through, it would never be a good thing.

Soon, Su Bei was tied to a chair and had something fixed on his head.

The man stood in front of Su Bei, smiling ‘innocently’. “Before I put the chip in your head, let’s show you how it would actually feel like.”

“After all, I don’t feel like forcing others to do things.”

As the words fell, the fierce electric current swept through Su Bei’s whole body, the pricking pain made Su Bei scream.

How insane!

He called this a bit suffering? It is the brutal electric shock!

Su Bei clenched his fists and stopped himself from shouting. His mouth was bleeding bit by his own teeth and the smell of blood filled his mouth.

His body could not help trembling, as if telling the pain it was suffering.

Soon, the electric shock was over, but Su Bei felt as if his whole soul nearly got of his body, feeling hell awful.

His head was still throbbing, too much pain.

The man’s voice was heard again, “Little kid, have you thought it through?”

Su Bei cursed Feng Xinglang in his heart for countless times, thinking if he did not come to save him, he would agree!

Seeing Su Bei still not agree, that man showed a regretful expression, “It seems that our little kid still wants to try our new chip.”

The unconscious Su Bei was taken onto a bed, apparently they planned to transplant it in his head, without using anaesthetic.

He had seen crazy men doing crazy thing, but not to this level!

The man’s voice continued, “This chip, once transplanted in your head, you can never take it out, unless you are dead.”

“If you take it out by force, it will explode.”

24. President: He Is Only a Bait

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

“Boom! And your head will explode!”

What could Su Bei do? He was also desperate.

His bound hands finally reached the pocket pistol hidden in his clothes.

But because the hands were still tied, there was no way he could operate.

Seeing the scalpel glistening with cold light was about to poke his head, Su Bei turned over and rolled off the operating table.

The surgical tools were all knocked to the ground. Su Bei quickly picked up a knife and cut off the rope tying his hands.

And then shot his gun!

The man apparently was not expecting that Su Bei was hiding a gun. He covered his injured arm and said, “Get him!”

Su Bei stumbled all the way out, only finding that all the doors were shut. He could only see the surging waves beating the shore through the window.

He gritted his teeth and fired several shots at the pursuers, keeping them unable to get close.

Suddenly, someone hurried in, said to the man who threatened Su Bei, “Boss, Feng Xinglang is here with his people.”

Su Bei also heard it, he breathed a sigh of relief, panting against the wall.

The man’s face was no longer that gentle like before. He mercilessly looked at Su Bei, “You say it, is his life more important or yours?”

Su Bei slightly narrowed his peach blossom eyes, chuckling, “But I am more curious if your lives are more important or mine.”

The man snorted. “Get him, at all costs!”

Those people tried to approach Su Bei again, that man said cockily, “This kind of pistol only has six bullets, and you have used five.”

Su Bei’s palm was sweating, but he couldn’t show weakness. He leaned against the wall and smiled. “Like you didn’t know I have a pistol, you have no idea whether I only I have one, right?”

The man did not stop because of Su Bei’s words. He said with a careless tone, “Even if you have more than one gun, you will run out of bullets and show your slip.”

Obviously, in this psychological game, Su Bei lost.

Su Bei was directly pressed down on the ground, at the same time, the door was violently kicked open.

Feng Xinglang came in, looking at that man like looking at an already dead person.

The man went to the side of Su Bei, grabbed his hair and forced him to raise his head, “Feng Xinglang, I have been hiding for three years, and you still found me.”

“But I am wondering if you want this kid’s life or your own.”

“If you want to save this little kid’s life, shoot yourself.”

Feng Xinglang looked at Su Bei without any mood swing, as if he was looking at an irrelevant person. “His role is to draw you out. Now that you have shown yourselves, he is useless to me.”

The man shook his head slightly. “Tut, tut, tut~ What a cold and heartless man! Little kid, are you regretting not cooperating with me now?”

“Did you hear that? He’s just using you.”

Speaking of which, his punch hit in the abdomen of Su Bei, Su Bei muffled, with his expression twisted because of the huge pain.

The man’s eyes never moved away from Feng Xinglang, like he wanted to verify whether Feng Xinglang really had no feelings for Su Bei.

However, the expression on Feng Xinglang’s face did not change a bit, as if Su Bei was really just regarded by him as a bait.

The man took the gun from Su Bei’s hand and touched it. “Since he is only a bait, why give him such a good thing?”

Feng Xinglang raised his hand, with his gun pointing at the man. “I don’t need to explain to you.”

25. President: Rescued

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

Feng Xinglang’s palm, in fact, was also sweating. He did not dare to look at Su Bei, only afraid to see the desperation in his eyes.

The man looked at the face of Feng Xinglang unmoved, let go of the hand holding Su Bei’s hair.

He smiled feebly, “Sure enough, I still underestimated Mr. Feng. You even could sacrifice the one you love.”

Then his eyes suddenly grew merciless, “So what! Even if I die, I still have this little kid as my company!”

Speaking of which, he grabbed Su Bei and jumped out of the window.

Feng Xinglang directly shot at the man, hitting him in the back.

But the man and Su Bei had both fallen into the sea already.

For the first time, Feng Xinglang felt panicked and shouted, “Search them!”

His hands were trembling, and though he had really let Su Bei act as the bait, he already regretted it now.

Su Bei occupied more space in his heart than he had imagined.

As Su Bei was submerged by the cold sea water, 748’s mechanical sound was heard again, “Captivating bar increased by 15%, the current progress 96%.”

Su Bei was dragged to the bottom of the sea by that man who still had some consciousness. He struggled to get rid of the man but failed.

He looked at the blue water, feeling kind of sad. He was dying, but still hadn’t heard from Feng Xinglang saying ‘I love you’.

He really didn’t want to go to Africa and be pushed over by the chiefs.

Su Bei’s consciousness gradually blurred, vaguely heared someone calling his name.

It seems to be Feng Xinglang’s voice. He really wanted to ask Feng Xinglang whether he loves him or not.

But he already had lost the strength to open his mouth, and at last his consciousness sank into darkness completely.

Maybe Su Bei was lucky enough, he didn’t die!

Or maybe that man let go of him as he got stung by his conscience, or what.

Anyway, when Su Bei woke up, he found himself in a small fishing village. It was said that he had been washed to the shore by the waves.

Then he was found by girl with a braid, she took him home.

Although Su Bei was unhurt, he still lay in bed for several days before regained some strength.

He walked out the door in his local beach pants and flip-flops.

The sun was kind of warm, and he squinted out to sea not far away.

In fact, he did not know the location of the place, or how far it was from Feng Xinglang.

He asked the little girl, but little girl could not describe it precisely.

As for other grown-ups, he did not know why, they always looked at him with a strange smile and said no hurry.

He thought about the captivating progress and thought he still had time, so he just put it behind.

Suddenly someone shouted, “Erniu, is that the cute boy you brought back?”

Erniu was that little girl with a braid.

She stared at that person bashfully, ran before Su Bei, saying shyly, “Aren’t you supposed to lie at home to rest?”

Su Bei rubbed her head with a smile, “If I keep lying in bed, I would go mouldy, so I’m out for a sunbathing.”

Erniu felt even shyer. She stepped on the footprints of Su Bei, following him behind, “I will accompany you.”

Su Bei did not refuse, he asked Erniu, “Have you never been out of your village?”

Erniu shook her head, “Of course not, I ever went to the town for school. I just got bad grades, and my family has no money, so…”

Su Bei said, “That’s a pity. If there is another chance, will you choose to go to school?”

Erniu nodded hard, “If I got another opportunity, I certainly want to study hard and go to a big city!”
