President, Our Egg Is Lost

Thinking of this, Cheng YuTang suddenly thought of a horrible idea. Ji XiaoYu saying this, it couldn’t be what happened that night of last year’s Christmas Eve, right? For a moment, he felt like his heart was being crushed by a large, heavy rock and it felt terrible to bear.

He had a gentle appearance, but he was not a gentleman. In order to achieve his means, he would use all kinds of methods. The business world was like a battlefield and someone silly and sweet would never be able to break out in it. A few years ago, when his father was seriously ill, he hastily had to take over HongSheng. At that time, he had just returned from abroad and he was too young and didn’t have the proper qualifications. He couldn’t win over the masses and so he was almost kicked out of his position by several ambitious uncles and was isolated all alone. If he hadn’t been strong enough, if his tricks hadn’t been clever enough, if he could have even survived, he would’ve been sent to an island on the other side of the ocean where birds didn’t even go to lay eggs.

Even so, he had never gone to the point of forcing someone in bed. Perhaps it was his naturally cold temperament, but he has always divided his work life from his love life and he wasn’t very interested in that kind of thing. Even if there was a need, adhering to the principle that he wasn’t willing to get tangled up in someone else, he would always decisively cut off and never drag a relationship out. The only time he made an exception, the only time he had lost control, was the sudden, purely unexpected encounter with Ji XiaoYu last year.

Was it possible that I took advantage of a good man that night, forcing him into a shameful situation?

No, no, no, no way! That night was clearly arranged in advance of Han QingShi. Ji XiaoYu also took the drugs himself and took the initiative to enter his room and lie on his bed to seduce him himself. He just went along with the flow. There was no coercion; by nature, it was completely different!

Cheng YuTang tried to exonerate himself, but his heart was still full of doubt. During this time that they had interacted, he had found that Ji XiaoYu was indeed a major money-grubber, but it didn’t seem like he was an unscrupulous person who would do whatever it took to make money and who had no lower limit. Otherwise, he could have continued to sell his body or could have found a wealthy sugar daddy to support himself. With his looks and body, there were bound to be plenty of people willing to pay for him.

However, Ji XiaoYu hadn’t chosen that path to make quick money. Instead, he worked hard to make money, as a delivery guy, as a security guard, just like every wage earner who came to work in Ning City. Compared to now, what he did at XinHao Hotel last year seemed incredibly ridiculous and unreasonable.

What else is hidden regarding Christmas Eve last year that I still don’t know?

Ji XiaoYu waited for a response from Cheng YuTang for a long time. He saw that his brow was furrowed and that he was wearing a complex look. His face was alternated between turning green and white for a while, so Ji XiaoYu couldn’t help but worry that his kick had knocked his brain out. He quickly said, “Cheng Zong, are you hurt? I’ll take you to the hospital right away!”

“No, I’m fine, I just need a breather.” Cheng YuTang took a deep breath, barely managing stand up from the floor, and then sat down on the couch. He put aside his thoughts for a moment and tried to pretend that everything was all okay. fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮

What a joke, if I went to the hospital in the middle of the night, how would I explain it?

‘Yes, TangTang, the president of the HongSheng Group, wasn’t able to please a little security guard from the company and so was injured internally by the man’s kick’?

Come on, Cheng YuTang couldn’t afford to lose face like that.

The only lucky thing was that Ji XiaoYu didn’t kick his own little brother but it had been quite frightening at the time. That place would have just withered and he didn’t know if that would have affected the future function……..

If there was an effect, then would he still be a man?!

“Good, good.” Ji XiaoYu let his heart calm down a little and, just a moment later, feeling a little guilty and regretful, he mumbled, “Cheng Zong, I was wrong just now. The blow was too strong. The overtime, I don’t want it, you keep it to buy yourself some nutritional supplements and mend your body.”

At this time, still thinking about overtime! What kind of nutritional supplements can I even afford with that little bit of money? Wahaha Nutritional Express?! The blue vein in Cheng YuTang’s forehead throbbed and he endured the desire to spit up blood. Putting on the appearance of a calm, dignified president, he said with no room for doubt in his tone, “You listen to me clearly. What just happened was just a misunderstanding. It was all due to the alcohol. Don’t tell anyone after you leave, otherwise –”

Ji XiaoYu hurriedly raised his hand and swore, “I understand, I understand. I promise I won’t go out and talk nonsense, otherwise let sores fill my mouth and let my tongue fester, so that I won’t be able to eat any in the future!”

He knew that there was the phrase “drinking disorder”1. Although Cheng Zong liked men, he shouldn’t have any thoughts towards him as a little security guard. He was just drunk and acted without thinking, just putting his hands on the nearest available body.

Just like himself, if he hadn’t remembered the little white egg when he was pulled out of it by the sound of the bell’s ringing, he definitely would have been pulled along with Cheng YuTang’s mood and brewed soy sauce with him. There was the faint scent of alcohol on his body and it smelled really good. It had felt really good when that big hand gently caressed his skin. There had been a feeling that was both strange and familiar, as if this was what he had been craving for in his heart……

Stop! Don’t think about it anymore!

Ji XiaoYu blushed, his head almost giving off smoke.

With Ji XiaoYu’s promise, Cheng YuTang was reluctantly reassured. Along with loving to make money, this kid loved to eat. If he dared to make such a disgusting, poisonous oath, then there should be no problem.

This good night had become a mess. He has no other thoughts about it at all. He just wanted to quickly send away the source, to save himself from impulsively doing something irreparable. So he calmed his mind and said coolly, “It’s too late, I’ll have the driver send you back. You don’t have to go to work tomorrow, take the day off.”

Originally, he had planned to indulge himself tonight and had been afraid that little thing wouldn’t be able to stand tomorrow, so he took the day off for him. Now it seemed that he himself was the one who needed to rest. What would you call this?

Ji XiaoYu quickly responded, “Okay, got it.”

Cheng YuTang then called the driver, telling him to come over immediately.

He hung up the phone and the room went quiet for a moment. Ji XiaoYu glanced at the table and saw most of the food was left, so he secretly shot a glance at Cheng YuTang.

It had happened all so suddenly, so he had only eaten half of his meal and his belly wasn’t full yet. Now things were awkward with Cheng Zong and he couldn’t go back to eating, it was a shame……

“What are you looking at like a thief?” Cheng YuTang was still a little angry and he didn’t want to talk with Ji XiaoYu, but seeing the restlessness of his eyes darting around, he couldn’t stop from speaking up.

Ji XiaoYu plucked up the courage to feel him out, “Cheng Zong, you worked so hard just now to cook so many dishes. There’s so much left and it’ll be wasted if it’s not eaten. Can I pack it up and take it back to eat?”

Cheng Zong: “……..”

I’ve been internally injured and this kid’s actually still in the mood to eat! Where’s his conscience?!

Cheng YuTang really didn’t have the strength to lecture him so he waved his hand vaguely, “Just go for it, take it all away.”

This was also a good thing, saving him from dealing with the scene that would bring back bad memories.

“Thank you, Cheng Zong!” Ji XiaoYu was suddenly happy again, jumping up to run into the kitchen. He looked all around and found no disposable tableware, so he simply took two large bowls with lids. Anyway, there was so much kitchenware, these two wouldn’t cause a shortage.

Then he went back to the spread of food and with one bowl for dishes and one bowl for rice, he swept away the whole table.

Heh heh, there’s a microwave in the dorm, I can heat it up and eat it.

Just as he finished packing the meal, the doorbell rang. It should be the driver. Cheng YuTang didn’t move from his seat on the sofa, so Ji XiaoYu shot him a wink and ran to open the door.

“Cheng Zong, good even-” the driver opened his mouth and the rest of “evening” got stuck in his throat. He couldn’t spit it out. He stared in surprise at the little security guard in front of him.

Ji XiaoYu flashed his little white teeth at him, “Driver DaGe, good evening.”

From the living room came the sound of Cheng YuTang’s unhappy voice, “Wang Qiang, you take Ji XiaoYu back to HongLe Garden.”

Wang Qiang was shocked and suspicious, but he didn’t dare to ask anything, so he agreed, “Yes, Cheng Zong.”

Ji XiaoYu took a few steps out while holding the meal. Thinking it over, he felt a little uneasy, so he turned back and said, “Cheng Zong, if you feel a lot of pain, don’t just bear it. Make sure you go to the hospital for an inspection.”

Cheng YuTang: “…….”

Wang Qiang: “???”

Cheng YuTang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Grinding his teeth, he said, “I sincerely thank you. Now you go quickly!”

“Okay, byebye!”

Ji XiaoYu finally came out of the door and followed Wang Qiang to the car he had arrived in.

Reaching the entry gate of the villa community, Wang Qiang, who had been stunned for a long time, asked, “Xiao xiongdi, how did you get to Cheng Zong’s house today?”

(t/n: xiao xiongdi – little brother, endearing)

He had been looking for a place to find some fun when he suddenly got a call from Cheng YuTang. So he had to drive his car and rush over. However, he never thought that Cheng YuTang wasn’t the one going out, but that he would tell him to take Ji XiaoYu back to his dorm. It was really overkill for the president’s driver to go to the company’s dorm.

But what was even weirder was that wasn’t Ji XiaoYu a little parking garage security guard? How could he suddenly pop up in Cheng Zong’s house?

Ji XiaoYu answered with the truth, “Cheng Zong wanted me to drive him back, but I can’t drive so he drove me here himself and told me to learn the route first.”

Wang Qiang was in a state of disbelief and then suddenly felt a huge sense of crisis, is it Cheng Zong’s intention to make this kid his driver in the future? What about me?!

He forced down the panic in his mind and asked, “Just now, you said that if Cheng Zong was in pain, he should go to the hospital. What happened, is Cheng Zong sick?”

Ji XiaoYu couldn’t explain this factually so he said ambiguously, “Maybe. He just didn’t look very good just now.”

Wang Qiang found this to be suspicious, but couldn’t say how, so he could only go back to the previous topic. While intimidated inside, he put on a calm expression and said in a threatening way, “It’s not so easy to drive for Cheng Zong. On call 24 hours a day. When the wind and the rain come, you must have be strong in body and have good driving skills. And you must have a good eye to pay attention to all directions. In case of traffic accidents or sudden dangers, you must be good at adapting and also be able to fight. Looking at xiao xiongdi, I see you have a fine body, so don’t be brave. At a young age, save yourself from falling into a disaster; a life can be lost from bad driving.”

Ji XiaoYu looked at him with admiration clear on his face and said, “So dangerous, ah, it hasn’t been easy for you to live to this moment, Wang DaGe!”

Wang Qiang: “……..”

How did this kid’s brain grow to this point? Can’t communicate at all! If you don’t listen, I’m going to step on you to climb up, so don’t blame me for being unkind.

There was no discussion after that. At almost 11pm, Ji XiaoYu made it back to the HongLe Garden dorm. Liang ShaoGang’s door was closed. Liu WeiRen’s was open, but there was no one inside, so he was probably on duty.

He went into his room first and saw the little white egg laying in the nest he made with a small blanket next to the pillow. He calmed his heart and, lying on the bed, touched the little white egg. He said to himself, “My child, you don’t know what Daddy went through today. It was so thrilling that Daddy almost couldn’t come back today. People say good-looking women are a source of calamity, but I think it’s the same for men.

“You want to ask how good-looking that man is? Well, alright. He’s a little bit worse than your dad. But he’s really bad-tempered and moody, really clever but thinks too much. And very impatient. Daddy almost offended him tonight, so maybe he’s still a little mad at Daddy right now. Ay, money is hard to earn. My child, you must stay away from this kind of person in the future, you know?

“Mmm, Baby is so sweet, *mua*!”

Ji XiaoYu finished complaining and kissed the little white egg and put it back into the nest. Then he went to the kitchen, putting the take-home food in the microwave to heat it.

Microwave ovens were such good things; there was no open flame and they were easy to operate so they were perfect for him, a spiritual beast who was afraid of fire and had zero cooking ability.

A few minutes later, a *ding* sounded. The food was heated, so Ji XiaoYu took it out and sat down at the table and ate. Although the food had been cold and re-heated stuff tasted a little worse, the flavor was still pretty good.

When Liang ShaoGang heard the movement, he came out of his room and asked in confusion, “Xiao Yu, the captain said that Cheng Zong requested you for two days. How come you’re back now?”

Ji XiaoYu choked for a moment and replied, “Cheng Zong had something going on after, so he sent me back.”

Liang ShaoGang just nodded, not asking any more, and changed the topic, “What are you eating that’s so fragrant? Which restaurant did you buy it from?”

Speaking of this, Ji XiaoYu was a little smug, using with a boastful tone without realizing, “I didn’t buy it from a restaurant, it was made by Cheng Zong. And I assisted him – Liang Ge, do you want to try it?”

In fact, he didn’t want to ask that question, because he couldn’t bear to part with his food, but he was eating by himself and making Liang ShaoGang watch; that seemed a little wrong.

“No, I had a lot of food tonight.”

Luckily, Liang ShaoGang refused, but it was hard to change the topic. “Cheng Zong did? Why would he cook for you?”

Ji XiaoYu scratched his head. “Uh, maybe he was in a good mood today.”

Although the ending was messed up because of the drinking, the atmosphere of the two people cooking together beforehand had still been very good. It had been a very fresh and comfortable experience, so that he couldn’t help but think back and savor it.

If I could have a home one day and live with my other half, that would probably be the daily scene.

Forget it, with so much to do, it would be nice if I could just feed myself.

Liang ShaoGang had tears in the corners of his eyes, alright, that’s the only way this sort of fantasy could be explained. “Then you eat slowly, I’m going to sleep.”

“Mhm, good night, Liang Ge!”

After dinner and a shower, it was almost 12am. Ji XiaoYu put the little white egg under his belly and turned off the bedside lamp.

Less than two minutes later, there was suddenly a soft bang on the window. Ji XiaoYu slammed his eyes open and saw a vague dark form crouching on the window sill, which then jumped into his room very lightly.

Oh no, an enemy!

Ji XiaoYu hurriedly got up and turned on the bedside table lamp. He found out that it was actually a cat, a long-haired Persian cat that was more than twice the size of a normal domestic cat!

The light flashed on brightly and the Persian cat blinked in confusion. Then its mouth spat out human words, saying in a surprised tone, “Hey, aren’t you on duty in the parking garage tonight? Why are you back?”

The voice was very soft and charming. Ji XiaoYu was startled, “Su MiaoEr?” ƒ𝘳𝗲𝑒𝒘𝐞𝚋𝚗𝐨v𝘦l.𝒄o𝐦

“Meow~ little rooster, you still remember me.” The Persian cat laughed, shook her fur and turned into a hot, well-dressed provocative beauty. She twisted her hips and walked to the bed, “Since you’re home, it’s time to dual cultivate. Good for you, good for me, good for everyone.”

A flush rose up on Ji XiaoYu’s face and he said, “The hell with dual cultivation, this little master is not interested in you!”

“If you’re not interested in such a beauty like me, then what are you interested in?” Su MiaoEr seemed to be a little hurt, with her lips pouting and her tone mournful, then her amber cat-like pupils flashed, revealing a subtle touch of perversion, “Hmm, could it be possible you like males? Let me guess, is it our Cheng Zong?”

A thunderbolt flashed through Ji XiaoYu’s mind and he almost fell out of bed. He hurriedly denied it, “It’s not! Don’t you talk nonsense, this has nothing to do with him!”

“If it’s not, what are you getting so excited about?” Su MiaoEr shrugged her shoulders, her eyes dancing, her amber, round pupils blooming with a touch of strange light. “Since you don’t want to dual cultivate, then give me your little egg!”

Ji XiaoYu trembled and then jumped to the side of the bed on his bare feet. He angrily said, “Dream on! How do you know that I have an egg?”

Su MiaoEr raised a hand, the light glittering on the diamond ring on her forefinger, and then she smiled at him, “I caught an injured rat two days ago. I was going to eat it for the night’s supper but he gave me a message in exchange for its life. Little rooster, I heard that you’re very short of money and that you had to come out to work. This jiejie has saved a lot over the years. Why don’t you name a price and sell the little egg to me? You can lay another egg anyway, just find another man to have one. ”

Damn rat, I really should have kicked it to death that day! Ji XiaoYu clenched his fists, his knuckles creaking, and gave off a spiritual aura that was invisible but fierce. He said angrily, “Don’t you even think about it! Even if you move a whole mountain of gold, you won’t be able to buy my egg! Also, although this little master has never hit a woman, if you dare to touch my egg, don’t blame this little master for being rude!”

Su MiaoEr could feel the deterrent power unleashed by the more powerful spiritual beast and from the bottom of her heart, she couldn’t help but feel fear. She took a step back and said in indignation, “Hmph, don’t give it then, why so fierce? Fiercer than a female tiger, I don’t think any man would dare to want you!” After that, she flashed into the form of a Persian cat, jumped onto the window sill and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Ji XiaoYu was almost half-dead from anger, this cat is really annoying!

What do you mean “no man would dare to want you”? Wasn’t it clear who this evening…..

Thinking of that, Ji XiaoYu took a sudden blow to his heart and he almost choked on his own saliva. *Pei pei pei*2, he didn’t need a man!

He had a good life as a spiritual beast. As long as he earned money and raised his baby well, that was fine. A man, that kind of lifeform, had nothing to! do! with! him!
