Xiao Shengyu had been on leave for almost a half month. During this time, he spent every day accompanying Gu Weizhou, taking him to various places to have fun and eat sweets. In just half a month, Gu Weizhou’s cheeks had gained a roundness, showing the results of Xiao Shengyu’s efforts.
Clearly proud of his achievements, Xiao Shengyu would affectionately kiss Gu Weizhou every day, purposely making him blush before letting him go. However, one day after his half-month vacation, Xiao Shengyu’s coach finally called him.
“Did you have fun?” the coach asked.
With the phone held between his neck and shoulder and his hands washing grapes in a basin, Xiao Shengyu casually replied, “Yeah, I had a great time.” After all, I had already won over Xiao Miao. How could I not be happy?
However, the coach, hearing this statement, nearly lost his temper and almost dropped his phone.
Although last time he had granted Xiao Shengyu a vacation in a fit of anger, it had been half a month, and this brat hadn’t even set foot on the training ground once. In two months, the league would begin.
Thinking about the upcoming league, the coach couldn’t help but think about Lu Zhiyu, whom he planned to support and promote as a replacement for Xiao Shengyu.
He had to admit that he had high hopes for Lu Zhiyu. Since joining the team, he had been the most hardworking player in private and showed remarkable performance during training sessions. However, after half a month, he finally realized something crucial: talent was often more important than hard work. Unfortunately, most people lacked that tiny bit of talent.
Lu Zhiyu was undeniably hardworking, but he wasn’t a qualified shooting guard. He hesitated too much, lacked decisiveness, and sometimes even made incorrect predictions, resulting in him completely failing to fulfill the role of an SG on the court.
On the other hand, Xiao Shengyu was different. He knew exactly what his role as SG was on the court, and his goal was simple and straightforward: score, score, and score without burdening the entire team.
Scoring was his objective, which was why Xiao Shengyu always deserved the title of the scoring king in matches. Some teams even resorted to injuring him in an attempt to stop his advances.
Realizing that Hengqian couldn’t be separated from Xiao Shengyu, the coach reluctantly made another call.
Knowing that if he continued to beat around the bush, he would be infuriated by that bastard, he gritted his teeth and said, “Come back to train tomorrow, If you’ve had enough fun.”
After washing the grapes, Xiao Shengyu responded, “Okay, I’ll come back tomorrow.” Afterward, he abruptly ended the call, leaving the coach boiling with rage on the other end.
Xiao Shengyu placed the washed grapes on the fruit plate, brought them directly to the room, and put them on the bedside table in his room. As he turned around, he noticed that Gu Weizhou was taking a nap on the bed.
Looking at the young boy’s soft and rosy cheeks, Xiao Shengyu leaned down and gave him a tender kiss. Then, he decided to find Gu Xingjie to discuss the matter of the book publication the latter had mentioned last time.
After the incident with the newspaper company, Xiao Shengyu sent the person involved straight to the hospital. If it weren’t for Gu Xingjie having some leverage over that person and both of them having powerful backgrounds, the matter wouldn’t have ended so smoothly.
Xiao Shengyu didn’t dare let Gu Weizhou submit any more manuscripts randomly. Instead, he gave the original manuscript to Gu Xingjie, who had a broader network and could help handle it. Gu Xingjie lived up to his expectations and had called him earlier, saying that he had spoken with a publishing house. However, the specific details needed Xiao Shengyu’s personal attention.
As Xiao Shengyu left, the house was left with Gu Weizhou peacefully napping. But this tranquility didn’t last even an hour as the door was forcefully pushed open from the outside.

Bang!
As he kicked open the door to the master bedroom, a roar echoed through the room.
“Xiao Shengyu, get your ass out here!”
Lu Zhiyu had thought that with Xiao Shengyu being abandoned, his chance to rise to the top had come. Just as he had expected, he temporarily secured the SG position. But when he thought he could replace Xiao Shengyu and become Hengqian’s new SG, the coach unexpectedly informed him today that Xiao Shengyu would be returning to the team tomorrow.
Xiao Shengyu’s return meant that the SG position would once again belong to him, and Lu Zhiyu would continue to be the perpetual substitute.
The instant disparity between his expectations and reality drove Lu Zhiyu to lose all reason. He immediately rushed back home to confront Xiao Shengyu and fight him.
Xiao Shengyu, you have everything: money, a privileged background, fame, and a bed companion. You already have so much. Why do you have to snatch away a small SG position from me? Why!
However, Xiao Shengyu wasn’t home at the moment, so Lu Zhiyu’s forceful entry only startled Gu Weizhou, who was napping on the bed.
Facing Lu Zhiyu’s dark and turbulent emotions standing before the door, Gu Weizhou, who had been abruptly awakened from his nap, hadn’t fully grasped what was happening.
As he sat up on the bed, his voice still carrying a hint of sleepiness, he called out, “Cousin Zhiyu, what’s wrong?”
The young boy’s face was delicate and rosy, his misty eyes glistening with moisture. Perhaps due to sleeping, his collar was slightly askew, revealing a small patch of fair skin and his exquisite collarbone and shoulder, which was enough to captivate a man’s gaze.
Unlike the hazy effect of the screen and distance, his skin, in reality, appeared even more delicate, and fairer, tempting one to lower their head and take a bite, anticipating the instant blush that would spread across his owner’s face.
Accompanied by this scene, the anger that had been present in Lu Zhiyu’s heart a moment ago was instantly replaced by explicit desire and jealousy.
Xiao Shengyu, you enjoy competing with me for the SG position, right? Then I will fuck what you desire the most. For who even if you have to endure it, you can’t bear to force him a single bit!
…
[Number 001, you previously mentioned that you could help me to some extent in the world, right?]
[Yes, host. As long as you don’t kill anyone, I can help you unconditionally.] After headquarters learned of your choice, they not only activated the time rewind for you but also transferred 500,000 points to me. Such a generous offer. Are you sure you don’t have any connections?
[Help me create a realistic version of his wet dream, and also…] Glancing at a barely visible spot in the corner of the wall where a tiny surveillance camera was located, [I need a stack of photos of this realistic version of his wet dream.]
Seeing the man who had just tried to overpower him but was now lying unconscious after being struck by his own hand, suddenly starting restricted-level performance like a raging bull in heat. Gu Weizhou distanced himself, visibly repulsed, as if afraid of something disgusting touching him.
Compared to Xiao Shengyu, in this world, Gu Weizhou despised Lu Zhiyu even more, as well as his mother, who was a pair of terrible relatives.
These two people, one being Su Miao’s cousin, who willingly sent his own helpless cousin into the arms of his opponent, and the other being Su Miao’s aunt, who not only failed to support her lonely nephew but also destroyed Su Miao for her own desires, ultimately cruelly breaking his legs.
Such a pair is truly the epitome of the worst among relatives, the scummiest of scum.
As he walked out of the room, Gu Weizhou said, [Make sure to capture all the expressions of enjoyment on his face and the scene of his brutal torment.]
Only then could he explain to his aunt, who was desperate for a grandchild, why his precious son refused to get married and have children.
Why? Because his son likes men, and he’s even a pervert who enjoys inflicting pain on others in bed.
[Hmm… Am I being too cruel to my cousin and aunt?] Gu Weizhou’s expression suddenly showed some hesitation.
[Uh…]
After thinking for a moment, as if making a decision, he nodded and said, [I was too harsh. Let’s forget about the photos.]
[…As you wish.]
However…
[Let’s make a video instead. The scenes will be clearer that way.]
001, […] I think this would be even harsher, Host.
…
It was around eight or nine in the evening when Xiao Shengyu, who had finally settled all the details of the contract, finished his work and prepared to hurry home.
He knew that the young man had gotten used to waiting for him to have dinner. If he came home late, that silly guy would be hungry again. Well, even though he had prepared a fruit plate of sweet grapes, his favorite, before leaving.
However, just as he had been driving for barely two minutes, his phone rang. It was that woman calling.
“Xiao Shengyu, we completed the divorce procedures today. As for you and him… well, I guess it’s to be expected. He wants to find another woman and have a child. I guess he’ll never grow up even if one waits until death. Having a worthless son is still better than having none at all. Do you know why I chose to marry him for his money back then? If I hadn’t married him, there wouldn’t be you…”
On the quiet street, a car parked under the warm yellow streetlight, its hazard lights blinking incessantly. Inside the car, Xiao Shengyu calmly leaned back in his seat, listening to the woman on the other end of the line rambling on, not interrupting a single word from beginning to end.
After what seemed like a long time, maybe an hour or maybe two, a voice came through the phone, announcing the departure of a plane on the airport broadcast.
“…Alright, the plane is about to take off, I… have to go.” At this point, the woman’s voice became choked up, and she, wearing sunglasses, hesitated to speak.
“The last bit of time I can fight for you is… the championship. From now on, you should listen to him, no matter what, he won’t joke with your life. Take care of yourself.”
Xiao Shengyu, with a calm expression, intended to hang up the phone. However, he didn’t expect to hear a sharp plea in the middle of it.
“Son! Xiao Shengyu! Can you… can you call me ‘mom’ one last time? Can you… say it one last time?”
Upon hearing these words, tinged with a hint of crying, Xiao Shengyu’s lips curled into a mocking smile, and he said, “Are you worthy?”
Are you worthy?
From the moment I was born, have you ever fulfilled your responsibilities and duties as a mother?
When I was just born, you almost let me starve to death to maintain your so-called figure. When I started kindergarten, everyone knew about the 32-year age gap between my parents, but you even refused to admit in front of strangers that you were my mother. In elementary school, to threaten that man, you sent me directly to the national team. After a few years, when that man gave you a breakup fee, you temporarily handed over my custody to him. And then, you were deceived of all your money by some random guy outside, and once again, you shifted your attention back to me…
The so-called blood relation, the so-called kinship, for you, it’s still not worth a few zeros on the check that man wrote for you.
Now, you have found true love and have capital, you come back to fight for so-called freedom time with that man.
But have you forgotten? Who was it that pushed me into this narrow and cramped alley in the first place? Who imposed everything on me, turning me from the designated successor of the prestigious Xiao family into the scum you now label me as?
Do you deserve me calling you “mother”?
Hanging up the phone, the woman’s crying, pleading apologies, and regrets on the other end vanish in an instant.
However…
Crack—
Behind the shattered windshield was the man with his entire face concealed, his fist covered in blood, his tendons bulging menacingly.
That night, Xiao Shengyu went to the Scarlet nightclub and never set foot in his house.
Uh ok. Of course his mom gotta be selfish 🙁 wat about xiao miao tho? He abandoned our “poor” mc for a club.
Oh, not so simple background, okay, I like it
Thank you for your translation 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
