Ji Qingzhou wanted to survive in that instant, but before Chu Cheng could speak, he cut the Fang Yaoxuan’s call and dragged his number into the blacklist.
“What a nuisance!” Ji Qingzhou said, “Who is this? I said it so clearly. How can he call me back? too unaware.”
His voice just fell. Fang Yaoxuan’s video call rang from WeChat. Chu Cheng looked at it calmly. Ji Qingzhou cut the call again without saying anything. He deleted him from his friends list directly and smiled at the same time. “It’s clean.”
“Is it?”
“Really, I promise.”
Chu Cheng put back his cell phone. “But I think people like you are still too unreliable. In case you and Fang Yaoxuan run away, I’d really be losing money and you’ll be gone. It’s better to sleep first.”
He pushed him down on the bed. Ji Qingzhou struggled as he rolled on the bed. “No, you just said yes.”
“I’m going back on my word.”
“You are simply unworthy of your name,” Ji Qingzhou said as he pushed him. “Just promised me, you just promised, you see, I deleted everything from Fang Yaoxuan, you can’t leave …”
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a “goo” sound. Ji Qingzhou stopped moving and looked up at Chu Cheng. Chu Cheng was rarely embarrassed. Ji Qingzhou said in a small voice, “Or I’ll make you some noodles first ? “
Chu Cheng: ……
In the quiet kitchen, the white fluorescent lamp emitted a soft warm light. Ji Qingzhou was standing in front of the gas stove, meekly cooking noodles for Chu Cheng.
The noodles were like spaghetti. The noodles were smooth, accompanied by freshly fried black pepper sauce. The aroma was tangy and instantly gave people an appetite. Ji Qingzhou scooped up the noodles, filled them on the plate, poured a thick layer of black pepper sauce, decorated them with a cherry fruit cut from the middle, and took a fork from the tableware, which was brought out to Chu Cheng.
Chu Cheng watched him put the plate in front of him, and politely took a glass of water and put it in front of him. He said, “It’s ready to eat.” He felt that Ji Qingzhou changed very quickly.
Chu Cheng bowed his head and took a bite, but the taste was not bad. He looked up at him and saw Ji Qingzhou looking at him anxiously. “Is it good?”
“Ji Qingzhou, why do I think you are different from before?”
“Is it?” Ji Qingzhou did not expect him to be so sensitive, “Probably because I was too stiff in front of you.”
“Are you not formal now?”
“Not as stiff as before.” He thought for a moment and sent Chu Cheng a nice card as if to please him. “You are quite nice.”

“Are you still going to make me wash it?” Chu Cheng asked him.
“No, no, of course not.”
Chu Cheng gave him a look and Ji Qingzhou smiled at him. Chu Cheng felt that he was really different from before and laughed at him, “Eat,” he said, “Can I actually starve you?”
“Thank you.” Ji Qingzhou said happily. He quickly walked into the kitchen, filled a plate for himself, brought out a fork and sat not far from Chu Cheng.
“There are drinks in the refrigerator.” Chu Cheng said.
Ji Qingzhou was flattered, “I can drink water.”
Chu Cheng looked up at him. “I mean, I want a drink.”
Ji Qingzhou got up, walked to the refrigerator and asked him, “What do you want?”
“Coke.”
He took out the can drink and helped Chu Cheng pull the tab open before handing it to him. Chu Cheng was somewhat surprised, “So discerning?”
Ji Qingzhou handed him the coke, smiled and sat down to eat.
Chu Cheng saw that he was almost like a different person this evening. On one hand, he was so lovely that he was surprised and on the other he felt it was ridiculous. He thought so and pushed the water in his hand to him.
Ji Qingzhou looked at him doubtfully.
“Drink water.” Chu Cheng spoke concisely.
Ji Qingzhou thought that he had just said that he could drink water. He felt that Chu Cheng’s sincerity was quite fine. He nodded, “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
Chu Cheng said, then he continued to eat the noodles.
The two men soon finished all the cooked noodles. Ji Qingzhou washed the bowl and pan and saw Chu Cheng leaning against the kitchen door waiting for him.
In fact, he still has some doubts about what Chu Cheng wanted now. He still couldn’t sleep and could only walk slowly.
Chu Cheng reached out and turned off the kitchen light. “Let’s go and sleep.”
Ji Qingzhou followed him, not knowing whether the sleep was a verb or a noun.
“Let’s just sleep tonight, shall we?” He asked quietly.
“What do you think?”
“I think you must be so kind, so handsome and so reasonable.”
Chu Cheng turned to look at him, “I didn’t say~”
Ji Qingzhou’s face collapsed in an instant.
Chu Cheng thought he was quite interesting and asked, “Really so afraid? Then why did you call me and say yes? “
It was not like he agreed. The one who agreed with you, he didn’t know where he had gone, Ji Qingzhou thought quietly.
Chu Cheng saw that he didn’t speak and chuckled, “You want money yet don’t want to pay. There’s no such good thing in the world. My money didn’t come from a strong wind, did it?”
Ji Qingzhou lowered his head.
Chu Cheng shook his head, walked into the bedroom and brushed his teeth again.
He looked at the disposable dental appliance brought out for Ji Qingzhou. “Use it first. I’ll bring your things here tomorrow and see what you need before I buy it for you.”
“Ah?” Ji Qingzhou blinked unconsciously. What rhythm was this and why was it necessary to move things here?
“No?”
Ji Qingzhou shook his head. He felt that what he said most today were denials. He never lied. He denied it. “I’m just a little surprised. Am I going to move here tomorrow?”
“Otherwise, continue to let you stay out of my sight and wait for you to relive your old dream with Fang Yaoxuan and renew your friendship?”
“I told you I was no longer a fan of his.” Ji Qingzhou stressed.
Chu Cheng glanced at him, “A few hours ago, you still wanted to be with him, and didn’t want to give me my money, also didn’t want to let him know the relationship between us and you also wanted to jump off a building, now you’re telling me you’re done? Am I a fool? Gullible? “
“It’s easy to think during a life and death situation. When I stood on the windowsill, I thought that nothing was as good as living. Since you can help me keep my mother alive, I’d better follow you.” Ji Qingzhou was serious.
“Then you’d better remember what you are saying now.”
Ji Qingzhou promised him firmly, “I’ll keep it in mind.”
“So, tomorrow we will go to your house to move your things.” Chu Cheng smiled.
Ji Qingzhou saw him that he was so insistent, he wanted to think, but he thought it was ok, Fang Yaoxuan as the main slag gong, his power was not something he could provoke, he wanted to use him as a substitute, he would inevitably harass him in the future, staying here with Chu Cheng, Chu Cheng could be safer. Besides, the original owner sold his house long ago in order to pay his mother’s bills. Now he lived in a rented house. If he did not rely on anyone, the rent may become a problem in the future. In his current situation, if he could save a sum, he would save.
“All right, then, I’ll disturb you.”
“Don’t bother,” Chucheng laughed. “After all, it’s not for nothing.” He looked at Ji Qingzhou and said, “Go to bed.”
Ji Qingzhou heard bed and immediately had a headache again, he carefully followed Chu Cheng to the bed and laid down on it.
Chu Cheng was lying opposite him. When he saw him lying down, he said to him, “Turn and face me.”
Ji Qingzhou had to obediently turn around.
Chu Cheng, very satisfied, put his arm around him and closed the distance between them.
Ji Qingzhou was being held by him, worrying about whether he still wanted to do something, and he unconsciously began to feel nervous again. His whole body was shaking uncontrollably.
Chu Cheng felt the tremor of his body and said helplessly: “Be rest assured, you will not let me drive and you will not let me touch your body, will you?”
Ji Qingzhou heard his words, and it settled his heart, although he was not used to someone being so close to him, but Chu Cheng had made concessions, it would not be good for him to push his luck, he softly replied, closed his eyes and forced himself to sleep.
Ji Qingzhou thought it would take him a long time to fall asleep, but it didn’t, probably because too many things happened on this day, and now it was very easy to settle down temporarily, the stones under his heart fell to the ground, his taut heartstrings relaxed, and soon he fell asleep.
In all honesty, if I were Chu Cheng I’d be more suspicious of Ji Qingzhou
Thanks for the chapter! 🙂
Well, even if they didn’t immediately go for it, moving in is still a leap
I think I should get ready to eat dog food? Maybe?
Actually I do not really think that Ml had done smth bad to original owner . Every thing was done by both side’s concent . However original owner was Iq was a little bit non existent .
*original owner IQ was
The original owner basically wanted to eat without paying lol
Dine-and-dash
But now the MC is eating without pay too… But because it’s they love story, looks nice.
Thank you!
Chu Cheng, you poor guy :’D
Thx for the ch (ㅅ˘ㅂ˘)
Thanks for your translation ~♡
Thank you for translating this!!! I’m really enjoying it so far, so thank you for introducing another wonderful novel into my world 💕
You’re welcome 😆
Aaaaand now I’m hungry in the middle of the night—-
Really Chu Cheng’s not a bad guy. The original tho is just so lol
Thank you for the chapter✨
What a gentleman. Chu Cheng 🥺🥺🥺. Thank you for the update ❤️
Every time Chu Cheng asks “Am I a fool/gullible etc.” all I’m thinking is [I mean…. yeah, kinda…] He has been pretty easy to string along so far….
I wonder if the truth of his identity will come out at some point.
Thanks for the great translation ♥️
Isnt Chu Chang a little too innocent? Hes like a gullible rich kid that tried to do a bad and got scammed (he didnt even get any booty out of it ). No wonder hes mad. Hes trying really hard to be a suave rich sugar daddy and failing so hard
I’m dead lmao, that’s exactly it
Lmao 😂
Sooo truuu 😂😂
Original Goods don’t have IQ. Such a rarely seen good golden finger and yet he’d stomped all over it and thrown it outta the window.
Thank you so much for the chapter!!😍😍😍😍
Thank you for the chapter!!
fun fact if not known already the so called nice card in this chapter is also often considered a friend zone in chinese so that explains why ml doesn’t want to accept it and why mc is so eager to give haha.
although i feel like ml is actually i pretty good guy, super rich and not afraid to use his money for benefits but not a slag at all.
definitely a situation where our original owner was the bad guy and our poor mc has to pick up the slack
Ml is being too lenient??? Idk he seems more nonchalant than what you’d expect from a ‘cheated’ person… dude… why/how are you so chill???
Thanks for the chapter~ ( ^ ♡ ^ )/
Chu Cheng is a good person, certainly. He’s Just taking care of his investments.
Thanks for the chapter!
I’m really liking the MC so far! Thanks for the chapter!
Chu Cheng is a saint, except saints don’t buy bedside buddy. 😝
JQZ you’re officially the best protagonist ever! So rational, so understanding, so direct! You’re the best ever! (づ￣ ³￣)づ
Thank you for the chapter!
Thank you very much for the chapter ❤❤❤❤
how is chu cheng a villain. he’s basically an angeL he still can give the shou a chance despite of being so shameless not paying aiya
Falling asleep too easily, will be caught
Thank you for the chapter
jqz is so lovely 🥺 honestly i see ppl feeling sorry for og cc but he was still a scum for basically saying “sleeping with me is the only way to keep your terminally ill mother alive”. he was toying with og jqz too. all three of the og novel cast were terrible to each other, with og jqz being more in a pitiable situation due to the severe power imbalance, but now we have our little angel mc ^^ and ml doesnt seem to be the ah… rapey type. god bless and godspeed to our main cp ^^
og jqz was annoying but ultimately, he Was a victim in all this… of course he couldnt pay back. if he could conjure up that type of money so easily he wouldnt be so desperate to sell himself for him mother in the first place. and for novel cc to be Embarrassed cuz he was cucked… well that’s you fault for trapping a desperate son in a faux relationship buddy ^^ fortunately cc now hasnt beem pushed to that point yet, and he’s quite likeable. thanks for the chapter!
Tbh I see where you are coming from but og Jqz AGREED to the terms knowing full and well what he was getting into. Not only did he steal cc’s money by not upholding his part of the deal, but he later on also pretty much gave up on his mom(?) To focus on a guy that was using him as a substitute and then later on abused him. CC wasnt a perfect person but you can’t say he’s truly scum seeing as he didn’t do anything against jqz’s will. Og Jqz knew what he was getting into and had even planned to string cc along for as much as he could so he could keep getting money while also being with the og ML
Chu Cheng, you’re too nice wth lmao
I hope it’s fine if I can constructively criticise because there are just a lot of places where it’s not smooth. Like not mentioning the multiple run-on sentences you have but there a lot of little moments in each chapter where maybe it feels like you need an editor. Unless the actual writing is this confusing lol? I’d give one example but then it ended up being too long – my comment.
Just if you could fix your run ons and maybe add some transition words, I think it would be helpful for readability. I guess a lot of people don’t seem to care but I think it wouldn’t hurt to try…
Thank you for the chapter!
I’m liking this novel alot..
Thanks for the chapter 🥰🥰
Hiya, new reader here. JQ is such a little bunny 🐰. Thank you
The ML is not even a villain to begin with!
💚💚💚
Ok. I do not like Sugar Relationships, But I find Chu Cheng so funny. He’s trying all hard to be this dashing sugar daddy and keeps getting scammed. The OGMC sounds trashy. He agreed to be someone’s sugar baby without paying for it? Is it fair? I feel bad for him, yes he had to make such choices due to poverty but there is sometging so dupliciptous about him.
