Although he wanted to be back in Li Yu’s good graces, Jian Suiying didn’t feel good about grovelling. He was more troubled by the bad relationship between them.
He also thought that he should apologize to Li Yu. After all, he really was at fault for the time the younger didn’t get to attend his game.
But he couldn’t bring himself to do it, and he had a feeling that Li Yu would not let him get close to him even if he tried to. Li Yu’s animosity towards him was so obvious that even after sleeping together for half a year, his attitude towards him didn’t change much, which he found really strange.
So he was right in his earlier judgement of Li Yu. It was really hard for him to get the younger’s heart to warm up.
But he really didn’t want to give up. If Li Yu was regarded as a challenge, he had already paid a lot for it. The more he gave, the more unwilling he was to give up. Besides, he was always willing to overcome such difficulties, climb such peaks, and gain a great sense of achievement.
Just take it easy, he thought.
When Li Yu’s anger is almost gone, he will wait for an opportunity to move.
They were also busy with several large projects at this time. The Qinhuangdao project will be completed in two months. The hotel property in Hainan Island has already signed a contract and they are now looking for a construction team. His life seemed to return to the past, to a past where he had not yet known Li Yu, one where he mainly focused on his work. And when he’s free, he would find friends to drink and have fun with, or ask a pretty boy to date and have s*x with. Then he would go home for a meal after two weeks.
Even without Li Yu around, he still lived quite a happy life, but there was a space he could feel in his heart. This emptiness became more and more intense in the days after he broke up with Li Yu, and was filled with dissatisfaction.
The days went by, and soon the weather was warming up.
Since that encounter at the company, Jian Suiying never saw Li Yu again. Then, almost three months later, Li Yu reappeared in his company and even took the initiative to enter his office.
When Jian Suiying saw the person knocking at the door, he felt his heart clench.
Li Yu changed his hairstyle. His hair was shorter and revealed his forehead. He looked very fresh and handsome. It seemed that he got much more mature than when he first met him a year ago. Seeing him walking steadily towards him, Jian Suiying could not help but sigh.
Jian Suiying put on an air of arrogance, leaned back in his chair and without speaking, looked at the younger with an eyebrow raised.
Li Yu put the documents on the table all businesslike, “This is an update on the Beihai area project. My brother hopes you can bring the people from the feed company to the farm.”
Jian Suiying squinted at him, slowly picked up the information on the table, turned over two pages, and uttered a noncommittal hum.
Li Yu waited for him to speak.
The two seemed to be struggling with each other, and they were so uncomfortable to even stand still. Finally, Jian Suiying opened his mouth first, “I’ll go this time, but I may not be able to finalize everything.”
“Perhaps, you should talk to my brother.”
Jian Suiying flipped through his schedule and said, “I’ll contact Chief Li. I can’t spare time this month, so we can arrange tickets for next month instead, I’ll discuss it with the people over there.”
“Okay.”
Jian Suiying looked at him coldly and felt uncomfortable. He couldn’t help saying, “How long has it been since you stopped coming over to the company?”
“…I don’t remember.”
“Why don’t you come then?”
“School kept me busy.”
Jian Suiying was silent for a moment and hesitated to open his mouth with what he had to say, “How has boxing been going?”
Li Yu looked up at him, “I’ve been punished.”
Jian Suiying felt awkward, but did not intend to apologize. “Come to the company more often. You get important information passed to you that the company needs. If you don’t want to do it, you should hand it over early instead. Don’t delay my work.”
If Li Yu didn’t anger him and didn’t refuse to cooperate on the matter of the three properties, at his discovery, at least one of the properties wouldn’t have successfully been transferred to others, and he could still get one back. Although he didn’t intend to blame Li Yu, after all, Jian Suiying had offended the younger first, but Li Yu caused official business to be delayed because of their private affairs. He has violated his taboo, and he never wants to see it again.
Li Yu said, “I will come over at least once a week starting next week.”
Jian Suiying stared at him unexpectedly. He thought that their relationship was frozen at this point, and Li Yu would leave. However, he thought, the younger was still responsible for a lot of things in the Beihai project. Even if he tried, his brother wouldn’t let him go.
Jian Suiying felt a little pleased at this, “I’ll go to Beihai next month. Would you like to go together?”
Li Yu didn’t raise his eyes. “Yes.”
Jian Suiying thought that since Beihai was quite close to Hainan, he could take Li Yu to Hainan on the way to see the hotel and take a vacation. However, he didn’t say his thoughts out loud. Li Yu wouldn’t react well if he did, or even find a way to skip the trip altogether. He had to take small steps first, so he forced himself to ask, “After work, I’ll treat you to dinner.”
Li Yu’s eyes flickered and his face stiffened, but he soon recovered to his normal self and replied, “I still have something to do at night.”
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
Jian Suiying’s heart sank in an instant, and he tried again. “It’s just a light meal, do you not eat at night?”
Ol Te vlv cba rqfjx, yea fzqgfrrfv tlr gfoerji klat rlifcmf.

Ol Te jmafv ilxf atfgf kjr j nlger lc atf gbbw. Coafg tfjglcu tlr vlrwlrrji, tf lwwfvljafis aegcfv jgbecv jcv ifoa.
Jian Suiying raised his middle finger at Li Yu’s retreating back and muttered “sh*t”.
If he wanted to go to Beihai first then Hainan, how can he arrange the plans to fit within a week? Jian Suiying will not be able to squeeze it all in for the time he’s free next month, so the plan will be delayed again and again.
Fortunately, Li Xuan didn’t care about this. He was the one who was asking favors from the government, not the other way around. Of course, the government was not in a hurry.
Jian Suiying was still in Beijing, busy with several matters.
Li Yu, true to his words, started to come to work at least one day a week. By contrast, Jian Suilin, who once used to go to the company frequently, stopped coming over so diligently.
It was largely due to the incident with Bai Xinyu last time, and Jian Suiying was full of distrust and anger towards him. Jian Suiying’s mood worsened whenever he saw Jian Suilin, so the younger only came over whenever Jian Suiying was busy.
As the number of times he saw Li Yu increased, the tension between the two gradually eased up. Jian Suiying began to prepare himself and gradually returned to his former rogue attitude. Every time he saw Li Yu, he asked him for help, asked him out every other time, and randomly gave him a small gift, but he was refused again and again. Jian Suiying didn’t dare to be go too hard this time though. Li Yu was too easy to offend and was too difficult to please. He didn’t want to destroy the relationship that they were slowly repairing.
Perhaps Jian Suiying had learned enough of this lesson and understood the truth that many experiences of injustice will eventually lead to his death, so his arrogant attitude towards Li Yu has been restrained. Compared with his previous overbearing attitude, what he has been doing now was more like a person courting another.
Li Yu smoothed out around Jian Suiying as well, because he didn’t want to have another conflict with him head-on. He kept silent or left when he got annoyed by him, and tried not to stimulate his anger.
In this way, Jian Suiying had fewer opportunities to be pissed off over Li Yu, but had more opportunities to maintain his demeanor. The more he acted gracious to Li Yu, the more Li Yu couldn’t piss him off. It seemed that the relationship between them was currently in a completely virtuous cycle cycle, and it has been a long time since they had a conflict.
Although the relationship between the two was restored to that of an ordinary boss and subordinate, the physical contact that Jian Suiying longed for with Li Yu was still unreachable.
However, he wasn’t idle in terms of sex, and he maintained a sexual relationship with Xiao Zhu.
At the hotel, after having sex, he thought as he smoked that he and Xiao Zhu had been together for nearly half a year already. In the past six months, he basically didn’t find anyone else, but he called for Xiao Zhu to solve his needs. Apart from Li Yu, Xiao Zhu was the person who had been with him for the longest time.
He really liked the boy. He is quiet and has a pleasing appearance. Jian Suiying has never been a stingy person, so he thinks that he should give him something decent after he has been with the boy for so long.
Xiao Zhu came out of the bathroom after taking a bath, and buried himself under the blanket to sleep. Jian Suiying patted him and said, “Turn around.”
Xiao Zhu turned around, propped up and looked at him quietly.
Jian Suiying held his young face and said with a smile, “You’ve been with me for a long time.”
Xiao Zhu nodded.
“I should have bought you a car, but you can’t drive it yet. Let me give you a house instead.”
Xiao Zhu looked at him with bright eyes and smiled, “Thank you, Jian Shao.”
“I’ll show you around when I’m free. It’s in a residential area I developed two years ago. The location is very good.”
Xiao Zhu nodded, “Thank you, Jian Shao.”
Jian Suiying smiled wickedly, “Thanking me with words on your lips, but no actual action?”
Xiao Zhu’s face reddened. He leaned over and grabbed Jian Suiying’s blanket…
Two days later, when Jian Suiying was free, he called Li Yu and asked him if he could have dinner with him tonight, but he was once again rejected.
Jian Suiying was used to this. He wanted some love, so he called Xiao Zhu after hanging up. He planned to take him to dinner in the evening and see the house he got for the boy on the way.
He and his friends opened a new seafood restaurant. He originally planned to take Li Yu as his plus one, but since the other refused, he could just take Xiao Zhu instead. Xiao Zhu is beautiful and obedient, so he likes bringing him around. In the afternoon, after work, he took Xiao Zhu to buy a suit and dressed the child in a smart way. Then he drove to the location.
The business was not as good since it just opened, and he came over as an acquaintance. Jian Suiying met several people along the way.
His friend’s name is Li Wenxun. He doesn’t usually contact the guy much, but he has known him for over ten years and they have a good relationship. He waved at Jian Suiying when he saw him from afar.
Jian Suiying brought Xiao Zhu over teased him, “Long time no see, look at your mood, it’s like a spring breeze.”
“You’re talking nonsense. My new restaurant just opened, I can’t help but cry in happiness.” Li Wenxun wore a pair of gold rimmed glasses. He looked gentle and calm, but only people in the circle knew that this young man was a standard vicious guy. He was secretly quite the shady character.
Jian Suiying said, “Congratulations. I’m not going to keep you though, I see that there are many acquaintances here for you to greet.”
“Almost all of us are here actually, except for Shao Qun, that son of a b*tch, he’s still with his wife in Shenzhen.”
Jian Suiying laughed, “When he returns, I must meet this new wife of his.” Shao Qun is also one of the exotic flowers in the Beijing social circle of princelings. He had a falling out with his family all because of a man, which had now become a joke the circle talks about at dinner.
“Alright, I’ll definitely ask you to hang with us when he comes back.” Li Wenxun smiled and taking a look at Xiao Zhu, he said, “This new sweetheart of yours looks good, Jian Shao.”
Jian Suiying remembered that there was someone with him, and he patted Xiao Zhu’s back. “This is Li Shao.”
“Li Shao.”
Jian Suiying said to Li Wenxun, “You must be busy. I don’t think you can entertain me for this long with so many acquaintances in the room.”
“Alright, you go on.” Li Wenxun called a waiter over, “Take Jian Shao to a booth and treat him well.”
Li Wenxun arranged a booth for them, and they sat in a good area. Jian Suiying picked expensive dishes to give Li Wenxun enough face.
The chef in this restaurant was really good and Jian Suiying was very satisfied with their meal.
Although his invitations to Li Yu were repeatedly refused, which lowered his mood somewhat, it was still a good night, and he was accompanied by a beauty. He gradually loosened up.
After dinner, he said to Xiao Zhu, “Let me show you the house. We should’ve gone there during the daytime. The lighting is better, but I don’t have time in the day, so let’s go now.”
Xiao Zhu hurriedly replied, “Okay.”
Afterwards, Jian Suiying came out of the booth with his arms around Xiao Zhu’s waist.
There truly was such a coincidence in the world, and two people encountered one another on a narrow corridor.
Jian Suiying was smiling with his head lowered as he whispered flirtatious words in Xiao Zhu’s ear. As soon as he looked up, he saw Li Yu walking towards him. The two of them stared at each other, frozen on the spot. Jian Suiying blankly stared at Li Yu, slowly stood up straighter, and unconsciously removed his arms around Xiao Zhu’s tiny waist.
When Li Yu saw him, his body stopped in a strange posture. Then he tried to relax his hands and feet. He then saw Xiao Zhu next to Jian Suiying.
Jian Suiying felt embarrassed. But what embarrassed him most was that he did not know why he felt so uncomfortable.
It is reasonable to say that he and Li Yu are different now. Li Yu has no control over who he sleeps with.
But he still didn’t want Li Yu to see him like this. Because whether Li Yu has any reaction or not, it was still enough for him to feel aggrieved.
Li Yu watched the two men vaguely, and a strange anger suddenly rose in his chest. He put a slightly trembling hand into his pocket, looked at them coldly, and walked past them as if he had never seen Jian Suiying before in his life.
Xiao Zhu trembled when he saw him, and unconsciously shrank next to Jian Suiying.
He had never seen a man with such terrible eyes.
Jian Suiying’s adam’s apple. He patted Xiao Zhu on the back and whispered, “You take a taxi and go back.” Then he turned and chased Li Yu.
“Li Yu.” Jian Suiying called out and went around to him. There were boxes on both sides of the corridor, and there are few people walking back and forth. Jian Suiying wasn’t afraid of being stared at. He reached out to block Li Yu’s way.
Li Yu spat, “Go away.”
Jian Suiying was slightly stunned.
Li Yu has not spoken so rudely to him for a long time. At first, Jian Suiying got a little pissed, but then he thought about it with her head tilted. Is he jealous?
At the thought of this possibility, he secretly felt happy and smiled, “So you really do have an appointment today. I thought you were just rejecting me again.”
Li Yu leaned, intending to bypass him.
Jian Suiying refused to let him do what he wanted and stood in front of him and said with a smile, “Xiao Li-zi, do you think you are jealous?”
Li Yu’s face stiffened, then he sneered, gave him a hard push on his shoulder, and strode forward.
Jian Suiying got angry and grabbed Li Yu’s shoulder. “If you really are jealous, you can just say it so that I can explain.”
Li Yu stopped. He could no longer suppress his anger. He grabbed Jian Suiying’s hand that was on his shoulder and twisted it with force. Jian Suiying was unprepared, and his arm was suddenly twisted.
He gave a short cry, and Li Yu grabbed his arm and pressed it against his back against the wall.
“Sh*t…”
Li Yu said coldly, “Jealous? Jian Suiying, why do you think so highly of yourself? I just feel dirty when I look at you!”
After that, Li Yu squeezed Jian Suiying’s wrist as hard as he could in his anger.
Jian Suiying felt that his hand and neck were almost twisted off his body, and his face turned green with pain. He had not seen him for some time, and Li Yu’s strength had gotten even more frightening.
Li Yu released his hold and turned away.
Jian Suiying cussed and rushed up to him, giving him a cold kick on the back.
Even though Li Yu felt the wind blowing behind him, it was too late to turn back and block the move. He was kicked at the waist area and he fell on the ground.
Jian Suiying lifted his foot to kick again, but Li Yu had grabbed his ankle and pulled hard. Jian Suiying also fell to the ground.
The two men fought again, struggled to stand up, and pounced on each other, wrestling on the ground.
However, this time, they didn’t get the chance to fight again. Several people rushed into the hall, led by Li Wenxun, the boss of the hotel. A waiter must’ve seen that they weren’t acting right and called the boss.
“Hey, hey! What’s going on? Suiying! Li Yu!”
Li Wenxun was followed by several acquaintances of Jian Suiying. They must’ve been having dinner together. All of them came over to watch a joke happen.
Li Wenxun went up and pulled Jian Suiying’s neck out of the way. Then he turned to Li Yu, “Li Yu, what the hell is wrong with you? Suiying is the same age as your brother. How come you don’t understand?”
Zhou Lizheng also pulled Li Yu away. He was so red since he was drinking that he swore, “Motherf*cker, have these two years taught you nothing… No, Li Yu, this is your fault. You are our junior. How can you fight with your Jian-ge?”
Several princelings nearby were also there to talk him down. After all, these people are all friends of Jian Suiying. Li Yu came into this circle slowly after returning to Beijing. He didn’t have deep roots and was introduced to the circle by Jian Suiying, so the others didn’t have close feelings towards him. Most of them only respect him because of his father and his brother’s names and status. At this time, they’d all be on Jian Suiying’s side.
Li Yu’s face looked uglier when several people spoke.
Jian Suiying shook her shoulders and said, “It’s alright, Ah-Wen, let me go.”
Li Wenxun looked at him, “I can let you go, but you have to give me some face. Today, my new restaurant just opened. Don’t give me such a gift, I can’t afford this sort of publicity.”
“Yes alright, let go.”
Li Wenxun then let go of him and comforted him by smoothing his clothes. He smiled and said, “Calm down. Calm down. Did you drink too much? Don’t be impulsive, everyone. Talking is better than fighting.”
Jian Suiying straightened his clothes, and then said to the crowd, “What? You’ve witnessed the joke. We just have different opinions about company matters and got all impulsive. Let’s break it up.”
He waved his hand, and then said to Li Wenxun alone, “Xiong di, it’s been a bad day, if not today, let me take you out for drinks sometime. Don’t mind me.”
Li Wenxun patted him, “It’s alright. Go back.”
Jian Suiying nodded, glared at Li Yu and turned away.
He predicted that after he left, those princelings would drag Li Yu into their private room, carry out some moral lecture about respecting the old and caring for the young, and then pour him some drinks.
Jian Suiying sneered. That’s right. This is as good as revenge on him for now. I can’t kill him yet.
He sat in the car, slammed the door and slumped on the seat, feeling extremely tired.
The efforts he made these past months have been in vain again.
It’s not easy. They could talk normally now, and Li Yu shows up every week. But that’s over again. That bastard was walking over him. Was he still a man if he didn’t fight back?
Saying that he, Jian Suiying, is dirty? Stupid f*cking thing.
Jian Suiying ruthlessly thumped the steering wheel hard.
He couldn’t figure out why he was so unlucky. Of all people, he had to like Li Yu, a wretched ingrate. Did he owe Li Yu something in their past lives that he has to pay off the debt in this life? As a result, he was not happy to pay off this debt, and neither was Li Yu.
Life was too f*cked up.
TL Note:
These two seriously can’t stop fighting one another…
