Chapter 17
“En En.”
Wen Ai’s eyes arched into creasants as he smiled in reply
Xu ChangZhou pulled Wen Ai to face him, and kissed him on his forehead:
“Baby, you need to behave more like a good boy.”
Wen Ai knew that this was a reminder for him not to stir up trouble, and not to run away. His frowned slightly, thinking of the matter of returning to his home country.
Once at the dormitory, Wen Ai went inside his room and closed the door and left the 2 body guards outside. He did not wish for anyone to bother him. One of the body guards instead stood under his window as a countermeasure.
Wen Ai was not actually packing up, Xu ChangZhou had already returned his wallet and phone that he had dropped during the kidnapping. Wen Ai took out his phone and dialed the air travel company, having decided on immediately purchasing a ticket home.
During the purchase, the clerk informed him of the requirement of his ID, Wen Ai took his ID from his wallet and read out his number. After a series of keyboard typing sounds on the other side. The clerk apologised to Wen Ai, stating that a ticket cannot be purchased by him due to a restriction on him leaving the America.
Wen Ai did not believe in such non-sense. As such he dialed every single air travel company both large and small. However he only received the same reply as the first one. Namely, his ID being restricted resulting in him being unable to purchase a ticket.
Wen Ai depressingly laid on his bed, at this moment he looked like a deflated balloon. Not bad Xu ChangZhou, he directly locked him up in America. No wonder he had agreed to his request earlier in the morning. Afterall, no matter what he is unable to escape from the palm of his hands.
Wen Ai placed his pillow atop his face, his mood right now was very terrible. It was then that the system tried to cheer him up:
“Now that this has happened, you might as well endure a while longer, the female protagonist should arrive in America soon, stay and provide your assistance.”
Wen Ai pressed the pillow tighter against himself, and replied dejected:
‘Yeah, its not like there is anythingelse I can do…”
Wen Ai had considered asking help from his family, but no matter how powerful father Zhao is, his company and influence is restricted to China. America is Xu ChangZhou’s territory, even more so when his influence is widespread in both regular business and underworld business( Mafia). Even if he sought help from his family, he would only make them worried without any means to help.
There was a sudden knock on the door, Wen Ai who was very annoyed at the moment, held his pillow in his embrace tightly as he opened his door:
“Didn’t I tell you guys to wait… Xu… Xu ChangZhou? Why are you here…”
Xu ChangZhou’s eyes scanned Wen Ai’s room, and then returned their focus on Wen Ai, and spoke flatly:

“Don’t you have to go to work?” Wen Ai had a gut feeling that Xu ChangZhou had already been informed of his attempted purchase of plane tickets. And asked hesitantly:
“Are you here because…”
Xu ChangZhou rubbed his chin on Wen Ai’s head:
“My baby was not behaving and wanted to escape, thus I could only leave work to accompany you.”
Wen Ai’s eyes widened with shock:
“You bugged my phone.”
“Yeah, I did it 3 years ago, there’s even a GPS tracker.”
Xu ChangZhou replied, generously giving Wen Ai more information than he asked.
“You’re too… too…” Wen Ai Punched Xu ChangZhou
“I want to change my phone, also you cannot do weird things to it this time.”
Xu ChangZhou:”What if today’s incident happens again?”
Wen Ai’s shoulders shrugged in dejection:
“It won’t happen again, my PassPort and ID have already been restricted by you, its not Like I can do anything about that ah…”
Xu ChangZhou stroked Wen Ai’s head: “Alright, but if this incident happens again, I will have to punish you.”
Wen Ai grunted in reply and added:
“Yeah, Yeah, I have to pack up for real now.”
Wen Ai placed clothes he usually wore as well as a couple important items into the suitcase, Xu ChangZhou then helped him carry them down the stairs. Where a luxurious car was waiting for them. The driver opened the door for them to enter. When entering the car, Wen Ai felt as if he had seen the sunglass wearing driver somewhere before.
Once the driver returned to the driver’s seat, Wen Ai was able to spot the gunshot wound on the driver’s nape. He realised that this was the first food delivery guy.
Wen Ai poked Xu ChangZhou who was sat beside him:
“That restaurant that I get deliveries from is yours?”
“I saw that you were not used to the food here so I got the chef from your favorite restaurant to come here.”
Xu ChangZhou replied while nodding.
Wen Ai: “Was it you who took care of Danny as well? That time during first year of university?”
Xu ChangZhou nodded: “ He’s never stirred up trouble since them right?”
“No, he hasn’t” Wen Ai followed by asking a couple more questions, and came to the realisation that the things he had happened as a result of his good luck, all stemmed from Xu ChangZhou’s silent involvement behind the scenes.
Wen Ai felt slightly moved, his water eyes flashing with light:
“You…That…Umm… thanks.”
“It’s still too early to give me your gratitude, I previously said that I would take care of you for life didn’t I?”
Xu ChangZhou replied while poking Wen Ai’s nose.
Wen Ai had been living a blissful life during the summer holiday, how come you ask? Why it was precisely because Xu ChangZhou spoiled him like crazy!
The weather was hoppt, Wen Ai did not like going outside, as such lazed around a home with the aircondition on, with all kinds of electronics piled up. He picked a few snacks from the snack box whenever he was hungry. Once it was afternoon, Xu ChangZhou would return and cook for him, after eating the two of them would lay on the bed and rest. Wen Ai would wake up at 3pm and proceed to play video games for another 2 hours before Xu ChangZhou returned from work.
During the Weekend, Xu ChangZhou would bring Wen Ai to go swimming in order to burn the fat that he had accumulated during the week. Wen Ai did not know how to swim, as such he struggled initially, coughing up water on Xu ChangZhou whenever he choked on water. His beautiful face wet from droplets of water, it was a sight that inspired pity.
“Learn my ass ah! My stomach is already bloated!”
‘It’s bloated because you eat too much.”
Xu ChangZhou replied while he poked Wen Ai’s soft stomach:
Wen Ai, did not like what he heard and thus sent a wave of water splashing onto Xu ChangZhou’s face.
‘Are you discriminating against me because I gained weight? Don’t think that I havn’t noticed, the real reason you brought me here was to take advantage of me! You’ve already touched my butt a few times!”
“They were accidents, if I were to stop supporting you, you would sink to the bottom.”
Xu ChangZhou replied with a straight face.
Under Xu ChangZhou’s persistance, Wen Ai was finally able to swim a few meters, he even began to like sports. Begging Xu ChangZhou to bring him swimming on weekends after that day.
After a summer of swimming, Wen Ai’s figure became even better than previously. When school began again, Wen Ai was able to meet the Columbian exchange student Sun MengZhen, they quickly became good friends due to previously knowing each other from highschool.
Wen Ai found a chance to take Sun MengZhen out with Xu ChangZhou, just like how they did during a school trip.He did not tell either of the plans and directly coerced them to be in the same vicinity.
But unlike last time, Xu ChangZhou was not as talkative, instead he pulled Wen Ai away and directly back home with a cold expression.
Wen Ai had never seen him angry, as such he was hesitant to enter the house, staying by the door. Xu ChangZhou pulled him inside and pushed him against a wall with fierce eyes, Wen Ai cried out in anguish, but could not escape from Xu ChangZhou’s clutches.
When Xu ChangZhou finally let Wen Ai go, his lips were already swollen like sausages, and felt numb.
After some time, Xu ChangZhou placed an ice pack on the table top, and lightly kissed Wen Ai’s slightly recovered lips:
“Baby you can punch and yell at me, but if you burrow into some other person, I will be angry.”
Weakness momentarily flashed across Xu ChangZhou’s face, Wen Ai also felt slightly uncomfortable seeing this.
“I didn’t mean to…Ugh… ‘ll apologise, I’ll apologise ok?”
Although he had apologised, the moment Wen Ai saw Xu ChangZhou’s expression he understood that it was not something that could be easily glossed over. He made some internal preparations, but when Xu ChangZhou pressed him on the sofa and turned on the TV he still felt a little lost and anguish.
