Chapter 158 The Scorching Sun (57 pages)
Today is the last day; a preliminary agreement was reached yesterday.
Qi Xuan looked at the sleeping boy beside her, her eyes filled with tenderness.
Seeing the slight blush on the boy's fair and flawless neck, Qi Xuan felt a little hot.
It really wasn't him... *cough cough*
Gu Yao was just unusually hospitable yesterday.
He simply couldn't handle it.
Remembering that he had returned to the hotel early yesterday, he saw Gu Yao putting it on his head.
Oh, / it's still all fluffy. / raccoon ears
Large swathes of exposed skin were dazzlingly white.
Upon seeing himself, the boy seemed somewhat at a loss, reaching out to pull at the clothes on his side.
God knows how he managed to look away. After a year of abstinence, seeing this scene for the first time was simply unbearable.
But the boy only held back for a moment before standing up and walking up to him.
Qi Xuan still remembers the boy's breath brushing against her ear, carrying a strong allure.
Holding his own hand.
"Brother Xuan, shall we open the present?"
The boy smiled, like a fox spirit from a storybook, who specializes in sucking people's life force.
Qi Xuan no longer remembered how she "unwrapped the gift" or how the little fox in front of her drained her life force.
All he remembered was the boy's seductive voice, which initially made him want to control himself, but the boy pressed him step by step until he gradually lost control.
Then they both fell into the abyss.
Qi Xuan raised her hand to brush away the stray hairs from the boy's forehead and placed a kiss on his brow.
Today we finished the project negotiations, and tomorrow I can take A-Yao out for some fun.
Incidentally, I proposed.
The ring, which had been lying in the suitcase for three days, was finally ready to be worn on its owner's hand.
Gu Yao seemed a little hot, so he stretched his arm out from under the covers. The boy's hand rested on the pure white blanket, and for a moment, it was hard to tell which was whiter.
Qi Xuan took the boy's long, slender, fair hand and placed a precious kiss on his knuckles.
It's like marking out their own territory.
His fingers caressed the boy's fingers, filled with deep affection and possessiveness.
Tomorrow, he will wear his ring on this hand.
The boy seemed exhausted and slept soundly.
Qi Xuan reached out and tucked the blanket around the person, then got up to wash up.
Gu Yao woke up at 10 a.m.
He reached for his phone and glanced at it, but immediately noticed the red marks on the screen, layer upon layer covering the original ugly scar.
I remember the way Qi Xuan kissed me yesterday with a sickly infatuation.
She really is...sexy.
Gu Yao smiled; his body was indeed a little sore.
He lay on the bed like a corpse.
It is a belated moment of wisdom.
Gu Yao turned to look out the window; the weather was gloomy.
He dislikes cloudy days.
It always reminds him of some unpleasant memories.
Why did it have to be a cloudy day today of all?
Even his departure wasn't blessed with good weather.
There really are some wicked people in the Heavenly Way.
Gu Yao did not lie down anymore.
I got up, washed up, and dressed neatly.
Looking at the delicate and handsome face in the mirror in front of him.
Hmm, my eyes are a little red, but it's nothing serious.
Lin Xi knocked on the door with a calm expression. He had practically become Gu Yao's full-time nanny these past few days, and now he even had to bring him breakfast.
But today, he has to come again; today is the last day.
If things go smoothly, Qi Xuan can finalize this project in half a day.
If I stay by Gu Yao's side then, I'll never have another chance.
Gu Yao opened the door with a smile, and was in a great mood when he saw Lin Xi's displeased expression.
This is the greatest joy I've experienced these past few days.
Gu Yao, with a sandwich in his mouth, looked at the young man in front of him. Seeing his hesitant expression, he felt a little amused.
He's probably thinking about how to trick himself into going out.
However, being such a kind person, he naturally had to give them a way out.
He looked up at Lin Xi with a smile on his face. "Assistant Lin, do you know where there's a flower shop nearby?"
Lin Xi was racking her brains trying to figure out how to trick the person out, but the boy gave her an excellent reason.
It's true what they say, just when you're about to fall asleep, someone will offer you a pillow.
He suppressed his joy, kept a straight face, and pretended to think seriously for a moment, "There is a private flower shop two streets away from the hotel that allows you to choose your own materials to make your own bouquets. Mr. Gu may want to consider it."
Gu Yao looked at the person in front of him and revealed a meaningful smile, staring straight at the young man in front of him whose disguise was indeed not very good.
Perhaps the three days of working as a nanny have smoothed out her rough edges.
Some have revealed their true colors.
Despite trying to hide it, she was still somewhat anxious to suggest the best place to leave.
They've dug a hole, so they're just waiting to jump in.
Gu Yao didn't care too much; in his eyes, Lin Xi's assistant was just a clown.
Once today is over, he'll be the one to take the fall.
Tsk, that's really pathetic.
Gu Yao scoffed inwardly, got up, grabbed his phone, and went out the door.
Lin Xi really couldn't understand the boy in front of her. He had just been scrutinizing her, but now he acted as if nothing had happened.
Lin Xi was apprehensive, but she was now in a difficult situation.
Even if it's wrong, we can only make the best of a bad situation.
He bowed his head, respectfully acting as the boy's guide and driver.
****
Gu Yao arranged the last flower, handed the bouquet to the shop assistant for wrapping, and began writing a greeting card (crossed out) for Lin Xi's death knell.
Looking at the gentle pink and purple bouquet in front of him, Gu Yao smiled and reached out to stroke the purple lisianthus.
Layer upon layer of petals, beautiful and dreamlike.
Love that remains constant.
This was his promise to Qi Xuan.
If they meet again in the next world, it will definitely be him finding Qi Xuan first.
"Would you like to take this bouquet of flowers now, or would you like us to deliver it to your door?"
Gu Yao smiled and wrote the address on the delivery slip.
"Deliver to my door, recipient: Qi Xuan."
As Lin Xi walked out of the flower shop, she didn't wait at the door.
Gu Yao could clearly feel several burning gazes falling on him, filled with a disgusting greed.
Qi Xuan probably didn't arrange for many people.
Lin Xi didn't notify them; they're probably still at the hotel.
Gu Yao looked at the car parked in front of him, smiled slightly, and subtly put the folding knife he had just used to arrange the flowers in the florist into his sleeve.
He opened the back door and, as expected, was met with a fierce-looking face. The person in the car showed a look of "fear" at the right moment. Before he could react, he was pulled into the car by the person inside.
Oh, and it also knocked her unconscious.
The drug's effects are amazing.
Essential for murder and robbery.
Now it's being used on Gu Yao.
Before Gu Yao fainted, he felt a thick layer of tape on his mouth and a slight pain in his wrist.
It must have been tied up with hemp rope.
The entire set of movements was incredibly smooth and fluid, executed in one go.
He's obviously a veteran.
