Holding On to My Man

Gu Bai hired a private investigator to investigate Nan Lichen's affair and it was also carried out cautiously. He can't let Nie Qingcang know about these things.

Gu Bai spent a lot of money, so the efficiency of the private investigator was naturally high. In less than a week, Nan Lichen was checked inside out.

Nan Lichen, 27, from Guhe Village, S Province. His mother died prematurely and his family was poor. When he was very young, he came to live in the big city with his father.

Fortunately, although his father is uneducated, he still had strength, enough to guarantee the life of both father and son.

Unfortunately, his father suffered from severe kidney disease when he was 15 years old. He needed a lot of medicine and medical support to survive. All these required a lot of money.

In order to ensure his father's treatment and his own life, Nan Lichen did a lot of jobs. However, because he lacked academic qualifications, the wages for ordinary jobs that he found weren't high. The two lived an arduous life.

So soon afterwards, by relying on his outstanding appearance and scheming, he sold himself to a rich madam....to be a lover.

In those 5 or 6 years, he socialized with the upper class society.

He is very good looking and his methods are also very astute. Under his taming, all the lovers around him became head over heels in love*. Even if he breaks up, things won't be made difficult for him. He became a sought after lover in the celebrity circle.

*一往情深 be passionately devoted; a life-long and unfaltering devotion; fall deeply in love

A year ago, his father’s illness suddenly worsened and the doctor said that he needed to replace a kidney.

The cost of a kidney and follow up treatment is like a bottomless pit. Even if Nan Lichen can get money from the 'patrons' around him, those rich people also aren't fools.

He is a male god, but there are plenty of male gods in this world to go around. As age and time goes by, others will also become bored, it's impossible to continuously spend money on him and the amount of money is not small.

Furthermore, sourcing for his father's kidney is a big problem. The kidney found didn't match his father. Together with their family's rare panda blood*, it's very difficult to find the right kidney.

*Rh negative blood type (also called “panda blood” because it's a rare blood type in the Han population)

Until Wu Zhenzhen found him...

After reading the information, Gu Bai breathed out a sigh.

Have to admit, sometimes hateful people must have a pitiful side*, whether it's Wu Zhenzhen or Nan Lichen, they all have a secret that makes people sympathize.

*reversing the original phrase "those who're pitiful must have a hateful side" Meaning they aren't actually all that innocent/faultless or they must've done something to become what they're now.

However, what about Lu Rongqing? Is Lu Rongqing not pitiful?

Wu Zhenzhen is indeed pitiful. In the past life, she was harmed by the illegitimate daughter so miserably. Her revenge after rebirth was understandable.

However, the original host is innocent. He was just a cannon fodder scapegoat. His entire life was completely ruined by Wu Zhenzhen's ruthlessness. He received a fate worse than the illegitimate daughter, with no opportunity to start over.

Nan Lichen’s life is also pitiful. Being close to Lu Rongqing was forced by helplessness, forced by no other alternatives and forced by life. But can his misery serve as an excuse to hurt others?

If yes, then how do you regard the numerous pitiful people all over the world? For his pity, he's allowed to push Lu Rongqing into the abyss without guilt?

Then, a murderer talking about his pitiful life after killing someone, can he go unpunished?

Regardless of the reasons, the harm these people did to Lunch Rongqing is undeniable.

What's more, his opportunity to come here is because Lu Rongqing used his own soul to exchange. Lu Rongqing really has no chance to get back up.

It's just that Lu Rongqing's feelings for Nan Lichen are very complicated. He said he wants to retaliate against Nan Lichen, but he also love him and said that he will continue to love him while also resenting. This task really gives people headache...

Nan Lichen’s attack has become increasingly fierce. Gu Bai can clearly feel that he is surrounded by a feeling of 'falling in love'.

Gu Bai very cooperatively revealed shyness on his face, two hands grabbing his clothes and twisting, showing the appearance of a pure and ignorant teenager.

Seeing the appearance of his growing passion , Nan Lichen finally decided to stop being ambiguous and confess to him. No one can refuse a confession by a perfect male god.

Nan Lichen knows how to create the ambiance, holding his hand and walking around the remote river outside the school.

It's already winter, the weather is chilly and the cold wind blows, making people can't help but shiver. Nan Lichen took off his clothes and put it on his shoulders.

“Thank you...” Gu Bai smiled shyly in cooperation, then looked at him “Teacher, are you so gentle to everyone?”

"Call me by my name, teacher is too formal and I won't be your teacher soon. I decided to resign..." Nan Lichen said warmly as he grabbed his hands to warm them up.

"Resignation?" Gu Bai said in surprise, tone anxious , "Why resign? Do you want to leave?"

Don't know why, upon seeing the teenager's anxious expression, Nan Lichen felt a kind of joy in his heart.

During this period of time, he found that the boy in front of him is really beyond his expectation.

In the previous information given by Wu Zhenzhen, Lu Rongqing is a extremely rebellious, gloomy and unpleasant boy. A bad child who's capricious and daring to do anything because his family is rich.

At that time, he felt nothing. Regardless of whether that person is good or bad, he didn't care. Using someone else to avoid a calamity, he's unable to save himself, let alone others. He's not qualified to sympathize with others.

Not to mention, that boy's family background is very good. Even if he falls down, there will always be a chance to get back up, but his father didn't. If he doesn't do it, his father will die and he will also continue living a life of betraying himself.

However, after getting along he discovered that the boy is completely the opposite. His naivety makes people take pity and his shy smile is so beautiful and clean that people can't bear to destroy it.

Especially every time he looks at his eyes, so clear, so pure and so special. Some kind of warm current flowed in his heart.

He likes how the boy smiles while looking at him and how he talks to him shyly. After being familiar, he will occasionally be naughty and daring. He likes how the boy stares fixated at him, only him.

He suddenly look forward to the boy falling in love with him.

He lowered his head and stared at Gu Bai with a soft smile.

"How can I pursue you if I don't resign? The school doesn't allow teacher and student dating..."

"..." Gu Bai didn't speak and raised his head, a unbelievable expression on his face.

"Rongqing, I like you..."

Nan Lichen looked at Gu Bai, the gentleness that flowed in his eyes could drown someone to death.

His voice is very low and very gentle, like the wind blowing gently, making the heart fluctuate.

"Rongqing, I like you..."

Nan Lichen repeated and reached out to hold Gu Bai's hands.

"I, I……"

Gu Bai jerked his hands back and held both hands to his violently beating chest. His breathing was extremely unstable. A beautiful little face was burning red, his eyes wavered slightly, as if overwhelmed*.

*受宠若惊 be overwhelmed by an unexpected favor; feel as if put upon a pedestal; feel overwhelmingly flattered

Nan Lichen saw the waver in his eyes and couldn't help but lean over and kiss him on the cheek gently. The soft and delicate skin felt very good.

Feeling that the boy's body in front of him seem to have stiffened, he smiled softly and moved his lips, wanting to kiss the other's pink and attractive lips.

"Teacher, so-sorry, I'm going home..."

As soon as the lips were about to come in contact, Gu Bai suddenly pushed him away and left in a panic...

Nan Lichen stunned for a moment before reacting. Although he was disappointed, he couldn't help but chuckle when he thought of the feel of that boy's cheek.

Reacting so much to just his cheek, how would this young and inexperienced boy react if he was truly kissed?

Will he tremble in nervousness or will his eyes waver? Or will that beautiful little face blush shyly, the fair body also redden.

As soon as he thought of the boy's close relationship with him, Nan Lichen's heart couldn't help but feel hot for a while. He never looked forward to having someone...

In the midst of his trance, someone suddenly patted his shoulder from behind and Nan Lichen looked back. There was a young girl wearing a camel-colored trench coat and sunglasses.

"It seems that the relationship is progressing well..."

Wu Zhenzhen happily looked at the direction in which Gu Bai left.

Night is a club for rich people, a place filled with dark money and physical transactions.

Nan Lichen paused and his eyes darkened "I will complete the mission."

"I know, but you spent too much time. I need you to step it up. I can't wait to see Lu Rongqing cry..." Wu Zhenzhen's face grinned.

Nan Lichen didn't speak and his face sank.

Wu Zhenzhen looked at him and said coldly.

"You'd better hurry up. I don't have time to wait for you. I'll give you another month..."

"Lu Rongqing is naive, but not that stupid ..." Nan Lichen's face became more and more ugly.

"I can't be bothered with this. I only want the result. If you think it's difficult, I'll help you again. This is what I got with great effort..."

Wu Zhenzhen handed a vial from the bag to Nan Lichen.

"What is this?"

"You don't recognize this thing that often appears at Night? Heh..."

After that, Wu Zhenzhen laughed and turned away.

Nan Lichen looked down, opened the drug vial and sniffed it. His face instantly went stiff. He stood there holding the vial in his hand and stayed in the cold for a long time, then left.

As soon as they left, Gu Bai came out from the corner. He touched the listening device on his ear and smiled. Indeed, you will not survive in life unless you are on guard against those who would harm you.
