Chapter Thirty-Five Reality

  "But some things that have grown in the heart, no matter how bright and beautiful they may appear on the outside, can never return to their original state." Shao Hua leaned in close to him, biting his neck.

  Like a beast, with sharp teeth and a fierce aura, he was grinding and gnashing, the piece of flesh already dripping with blood. Shao Qi frowned, hearing him say: "Degeneration is also emotional."

  "What a perverted reason."

  After the fight, there was no longer the kind of physical entanglement as before.

  Shao Hua simply hugged him, stroking his hair repeatedly as if petting an animal.

  He suddenly stopped and said faintly: "Your hair is too short, let it grow a bit longer."

  A sudden numbness in his heart, "I'm a man!" The voice was as ordinary and flat as eating, but carried a certain stubborn determination.

  When he was in the detention center, he had to shave his head. He himself didn't want to keep this kind of crew cut at all, but Shao Hua's words really touched a sore spot in his heart, so there was this impulsive declaration.

  But he was still clever and used a gentle tone of negotiation rather than loud refutation.

  His fingers gently pressed against the bleeding wound on his neck, Shao Hua's ambiguous forehead leaned against his, with a deep gaze: "You're just my pet!"

  Shao Qi paused, as if resigned to his fate, and slightly lowered his eyes. After all, he couldn't outtalk him or outfight him; he was a clever person who knew when to retreat.

  It's unclear whether it was because of the air conditioner's low temperature or something else, but there was a faint coolness in the air.

  "After a long silence, a cold and faint voice rose again, 'Your eyesight is still pretty good!'"

  Shao Qi looked at him with a suspicious gaze, her big eyes filled with unspoken questions.

  "Towards Yan!"

  It was as if a chill had struck her, and Shao Qi's whole body felt cold.

  He has indeed caught his little tail again, believing him, hearing a familiar name in Shao Qi's mouth will not be anything good.

  "Looks obedient and introverted, although intelligent and strong, knows how to behave himself, but after all is too weak."

  He gave a faint evaluation and looked at him again: "Have you done it? Although you are students, at this age, you should have tasted the forbidden fruit, right?"

  Shao Qi's face was almost stiff, and it was really hard for him to accept such a calm tone when discussing this kind of filthy issue.

  Just as he was about to explain, Shao Hua suddenly said: "But I know you absolutely haven't done it before, although it's ***, but your skills on the bed are really inexperienced and immature..."

  Shao Qi looked embarrassed and remained silent.

  "But towards Yan, absolutely stronger than you!" With a nearly mocking smile, a sparkling water color appeared in Shao Hua's eyes.

  "Bang......" A crashing sound came from outside the door, followed by stumbling footsteps that grew fainter and fainter.

  Shao Qi was startled and looked at the smiling face beside him, frowning: "You did it on purpose, you must have known she was outside just now!"

  "What's it to you? You asked for it!" Shao Hua's tone was indifferent and slightly chilly, as if he had seen something disgusting.

  "What do you mean?" Regardless of whether it was out of curiosity or concern, Shao Qi no longer cared about the morality of prying into other people's privacy.

  "Are you asking me again?"

  "Not necessarily, if you don't want to tell me, it's fine!" Shao Qi smiled.

  Shao Hua smiled harmlessly, like a newborn baby. "She's all alone in the world, do you think she can find a job here?"

  Shao Qi was taken aback. Although he had never looked for this type of job before, he also knew that it wasn't a job that someone like her, without professional qualifications or experience and still underage, could handle.

  He looked at him, and suddenly didn't want to let him clarify these things. It wasn't that he was afraid of looking down on her, but also understood those who made certain choices for survival. However, revealing these inside stories would be somewhat cruel to the parties involved.

  Some things are known by everyone to be dark and will not be exposed in the light.

  But he didn't let Shao Hua stop talking. Apart from being unable to stop him, he found that, actually, he was secretly wanting to know...

  "You wouldn't know what people would pay for in real life to get ahead!" He stroked his slightly upturned eye corners, his tone extremely calm. "Xiang Yan is no exception, she also has to make sacrifices for survival, for work and making money!"

  "She... " hesitated in her heart, murmuring without excuse, Shao Qi fell silent.

  "Yes, she was also once like you, lying in bed at the mercy of others..."

  Seeing the look of discontent on their faces, Shao Hua continued slowly: "However, you are different from me. You have only one benefactor, which is me, whereas she has a new husband every night and changes husbands with each passing day!"

  "What's the big deal? After going through thousands of sails, there will eventually be one that is useful, and you can get rid of it, right?" Shao Qi's tone suddenly became natural and calm, but her gentle face was full of disdain.

  "Huh, what's wrong?" Shao Hua smiled, "But she already has something you don't have - freedom!"

  "What happened to her?" It was as if something had struck his brain, and he felt a sharp pain, like an eggplant that had been hit by frost. Shao Qi quietly closed his eyes.

  "She has just escaped from the tiger's den, only to enter the wolf's lair!"

  Shao Hua looked at him, with a deep and profound gaze that rose with a hint of seductive aura, unusually not saying anything else, allowing him to quietly retreat back into his shell...

  There is a Chinese saying: "In winter there are three periods of nine days each which are particularly cold; in summer there are three periods of ten days each which are extremely hot."

  Not long after, in this iron forest constructed with steel and concrete, summer has truly arrived for this city.

  Even in a quiet and remote villa area, even with the most expensive air conditioning, it is still impossible to block out the sultry heat that pierces through the air.

  Shao Qi sat on a bamboo chair by the balcony, with a small electric fan specially prepared beside him, blowing wind directly at him.

  It's not cool at all, and even this wind is mixed with a hot wave.

  "This is something for you, the master has sent it over." Almost without hearing footsteps, a heavy voice faintly emerged.

  Shao Qi hadn't even turned around, but he almost knew who the person was. There was only one person who could give him that title, but when he did turn around, he still looked at him with a stunned expression, "Is it you?"

  There were more than 40 people, his figure was still straight and upright, wearing a suit that was as stiff as iron, with deep contours that were ruthless and numb.

  Who is Yan Fei?

  "It's me, long time no see, Second Master!" The words were extremely respectful on the surface, but in reality, Yan Zai was indeed being very polite, yet there was not a hint of friendliness on that face.

  "Yes, it's been years since we last met, but I just can't seem to forget you. I think we should both have a deep impression of each other!" Shaoyi said with a sarcastic tone.

  He certainly wouldn't forget, after all, he was the one who took away his own leader, and how he and his mother fell into that woman's hands. If it weren't for him being kidnapped, his mother wouldn't have been ruined by those people, and he might never have met Shao Hua in this lifetime.

  After all, he was just an ordinary illegitimate child, and with his reckless and arrogant attitude, he didn't pose any threat, nor was he worthy of being taken seriously.

  But everything that happened coincidentally made him meet his returning self, causing him to actively appear in his world...

  Yan Fei, you're one of the benefactors of all this!
