Holding On to My Man

Nie Qingcang is angry, but he didnât impulsively rush in. As the saying goes âcatch a thief with the lootâ, âcatch adultery in the actâ, theyâre both now only eating at the same table, even when caught it wonât be serious.
So after thinking about it, he returned to his car, waiting to follow them to the hotel, then catch him and bring him back for a spanking!
As for Gu Bai whoâs inside the restaurant, he didnât notice his presence at all. Although he came to do missions, once he entered the body of the original host, he becomes a ordinary person just like the original host. At the moment, he doesnât know much about supernatural powers.
There werenât any mutual topic for conversation during the course of the meal with Fu Zixuan, they ate very quickly, so in less than half an hour, the two ended their meal.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Coming out of the restaurant and watching Fu Zixuan leave, Gu Bai was about to go hook up Nan Lichen who already sat in the corner for a long time, taking the initiative to attack. As a result, he immediately caught a glimpse of Nie Qingcangâs car on the roadside.
Itâs not because his eyes are sharp, but the other personâs car is too prominent and he already sat in his exclusive car for half a month, so heâs very familiar with it.
The man who thought he was going to catch them in bed had a dark face on, but after seeing the pleasant smile on Gu Bianâs face, all his anger deflated like a ball.
However, Nie Qingcang doesnât easily change his face into a good one. Seeing Fu Zixuanâs car exit, he signaled for the driver to also drive, then he chastised* Gu Bai.
*å ´å¸é®ç½ª: punitive expedition; denounce someone publicly for his crimes
"Is that Fu Zixuan just now? Are you pestering people again?"
Gu Baiâs face paled, then he recovered and immediately shook his head "No, no brother..."
"If not, then who ate with you just now?" Nie Qingcang coldly humph, the tone was very bad.
âIâve said how youâve been so obedient these past few days, turns out it was a cover up. Lu Rongqing, youâre good, even dared to fool me. I actually believed you. You are really...â
The words came to an abrupt end, because the boy showed him those pure little eyes and it was even suddenly red.
During this period of time Gu Bai already discovered that Nie Qingcang look vicious and have a bad temper, but heâs actually eccentric*. The tiger with no temper will be obedient once you smooth down his fur twice.
*å«æ difficult to deal with; hard to get along with; awkward
This is his own golden thigh, whether itâs a shield before completing the task, or a long term meal ticket after completing the task, he must carefully serve him and draw him to his side.
Therefore, Gu Bai showed a pitiful expression, suddenly hugged Nie Qingcang, buried his head in his chest and burst into tears.
"wu wu, brother, donât say it anymore, I promise you I wonât ever look for big brother Fu in the future and wonât like him anymore. He came today to cut me off. He said that he would never be able to like me and told me not to bother him anymore...brother, whatâs so bad about me, why does he hate me so much, why does everyone not like me...â
This is the first time Nie Qingcang saw him cry, especially crying in his arms like this. As a brother who doesnât know how to comfort people at all, he stiffened on the spot for a while.
Gu Bai secretly glanced at his expression and continued to cry even more severely, although men donât easily cry, but now heâs doing a task, so what?
Act spoiled, sell meng, roll with whichever works.
Strong* and tender, like this kind of seemingly indifferent Nie Qingcang is actually most easily softhearted.
*éæ± man of iron; a strong determined person
He felt the boy hugging him dependently. Warm tears made a large wet patch on his clothes. He couldnât chastise him anymore. He awkwardly patted the teenâs back, stiffly comforting him.
"OK, donât cry. Who said no one likes you..."
"Then does brother like me? Will brother hate me?" Climbing along the pole, he raised his head slightly and revealed his red eyes, looking like a pitiful kitten.
Nie Qingcang was moved a bit by his pitiful appearance. The beautiful young boyâs tearful face look exceptionally soft and thereâs a feeling that makes people want to protect him.
His heart became soft and nodded. He actually quite like the obedient Lu Rongqing. In fact, he didnât hate him in the past, it was just that his increasingly outrageous behaviour made people really annoyed and gave immense headache.
However, thinking of Lu Rongqingâs repeated entanglement with Fu Zixuan, his brows furrowed again. "Rongqing, do you truly like Fu Zixuan?"
There was a bit of displeasure in his tone that even he himself didnât notice.
He isnât against the boy liking men, but that person is Fu Zixuan. Not only is he old family friends* with Nie family, but their private relationship is also good. The tough* father will definitely hate the boy.
*ä¸äº¤ friendship spanning two or more generations
*é¹åµ keeping a stiff upper lip: resolute and unemotional in the face of adversity, or even tragedy.
If Fu Zixuan also likes Lu Rongqing, then so be it. But the bad thing is that Fu Zixuan has someone he likes and will soon be engaged.
If Lu Rongqing continues to entangle with him, heâs afraid that it will lead to a tragedy of unrequited love. After all, Lu Rongqingâs former personality was extremely outrageous. There is no guarantee that he wouldnât do something extreme.
After thinking up to this point, Nie Qingcang was a little worried, there was still a bit of inexplicable discomfort feeling in his heart and he asked again.
"Do you really like Fu Zixuan?"
"I..." Gu Bai looked at Nie Qingcangâs pursed lips, thought a bit, then lowered his head. "Because in the past, I was always surrounded at school. At that time, Zixuan ge* often sent me home along the way when he came to pick up Wu Zhenzhen..."
Because of his small and delicate appearance that leans toward femininity and even more beautiful compared to girls, Lu Rongqing was often bullied as a child. Actually, the boys were very simple minded. They thought that because the brat look like a sissy, bullying him to the point of crying should be fun.
However, this left a great shadow on Lu Rongqing, and also the loneliness of being cast out. As a result, his character became even more gloomy and extreme. The occasional goodwill distributed by others will leave people with a favorable and deep impression, heâs also the same. Itâs no wonder that his first love is Fu Zixuan.
Seeing Gu Baiâs expression of happily reminiscing, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable and still have some doubts.
"Rongqing, donât you have a driver when you go to school? How can you be surrounded and bullied?"
Although Lu Rongqing isnât Nie familyâs flesh and blood, his life is definitely the treatment of a young master. When attending school, thereâs a professional driver and nanny taking care of him. How can he be surrounded and bullied on the way out of school?
Such a good opportunity to brush in good impression, Gu Bai of course wonât let it go. His eyes took a glimpse, then he looked at Nie Qingcang with a pitiful expression.
âIt was big brotherâs birthday that day, I wanted to go buy a present by myself and come home early to surprise you. As a result, I was caught by those who often gave me trouble. Not only I did end up buying nothing, I even came back home very late in a sorry figure......"
Gu Baiâs remarks evoked Nie Qingcangâs memory. He seem to vaguely remember that there was such a thing. It was his birthday.
Because Nie father was too busy to give him a birthday celebration, he himself was also lazy to do so. Every birthday was no different from the usual. He didnât expect Rongqing to actually remember.
He remembered that Lu Rongqing returned home very late, but because there was a nearly 10 year difference between them, he rarely communicated with the boy due to the generation gap. When the teen returned home late, he basically didnât ask for any reasons.
Thinking of this, Nie Qingcangâs heart was filled with guilt.
Reaching for the person in his arms to cuddle, Nie Qingcangâs handsome face was slightly distressed, caressed Gu Baiâs face and and softly said,
"Rongqing, in the past, it was brother who neglected you too much. In the future, brother will be good to you..."
"Will brother always be good to me and dote on me?"
Gu Bai blinked and continued to seek support*.
*to be provided for; to be kept (mistress); sugar daddy
Nie Qingcangâs heart is a perplexing soft mess, caressing his face, his cold face showed a hint of a gentle and pampering smile as he nodded, the boyâs fair and smooth skin makes people unwilling to part.
He couldnât help but lower his head to Gu Baiâs forehead and kiss him. Mm, it indeed does feel as good as the smooth touch on his hand!
"Brother..."
Gu Bai was stunned by the sudden kiss.
"En, whatâs the matter?"
Nie Qingcang was in a good mood, rubbed Gu Baiâs hair again, bowed his head and kissed him, completely unaware of eating tofu*.
*taking advantage of someone sexually; groping; molesting; touchy-feely
Last time secretary Chen brought his own younger brother to the company, he saw him do the same. He rubbed and kissed his hair and face. The two have a very good relationship.
He automatically ignored the fact that his secretaryâs younger brother is 5 years old, arenât younger brothers all the same anyway?
Thinking about it, Nie Qingcang kissed him again.
After Gu Bai recovered* he still couldnât believe it, his heart extremely terrified. Shit, did he bend him?
*recovered from surprise/shock; coming back to reality
He touched the original hostâs beautiful face, then thought of his lethal little eyes that can seduce righteous people, absolutely shaking both heaven and earth.
After a long while, Gu Bai silently climbed up from Nie Qingcang and didnât speak. His luck has always been not that good. What to do?
