The Foolish Gong was Reborn

After leaving the greenhouse, Xie Zhongxing asked, “It’s probably not a good idea to leave him alone in the greenhouse like that?”Qin Zhongyue was stunned for a moment. He then furrowed his brows and realised, “You’re right. Some of the plants there are very expensive after all. If he ruins them, wouldn’t I need to get him to pay for it?”Xie Zhongxing, “…..”Qin Zhongyue, “I’ll get the aunty to bring him some food later and keep an eye on him along the way.”Xie Zhongxing, “…...How clever of you.”Hearing the praise, Qin Zhongyue coughed lightly and tried to be modest, “It’s nothing.”He internally thought to himself: Sure enough, Xie Zhongxing likes the hardworking him.When carefully protecting his property like that, it was natural for him to praise him!Qin Zhongyue was very pleased and there was an obvious look of happiness on his face.Seeing this, Xie Zhongxing knew that he was completely oblivious of the other party’s true intentions. He lowered his eyes and smelt the roses in his arms. The fragrance from them made his heart feel at peace.Shi Yanyu followed behind them. Hearing their exchange, he stopped in place, “Since I’m here as a guest, won’t you invite me in to sit?”Qin Zhongyue turned back upon hearing his voice, “Why are you still here?”The smile on Shi Yanyu’s face faded a little. He sighed, “I haven’t done anything to you, have I? Why are you treating me like this? I don’t remember you being like this before?”Those consecutive questions left Qin Zhongyue stunned.Shi Yanyu continued, “I know you’ve heard about my rumours but I haven’t done anything to you, have I? Why treat me like this?”Qin Zhongyue returned to his senses and insisted, “You may seem like a gentleman on the surface but you’re actually a rat!”Shi Yanyu, “Rat? Me? You think I’m a rat?”Qin Zhongyue nodded seriously, “Yes, you are!”Shi Yanyu sneered, “If I’m a rat then what about those friends of yours?”Without waiting for Qin Zhongyue to answer, Shi Yanyu continued, “You have always been bad at judging people. I really want to see how you end up in life.”Qin Zhongyue was angered, “You dare curse me!”Shi Yanyu’s expression turned cold. His eyes and brows were originally close to each other, making them appear very deep set, and he also had a tall nose bridge and sharp jawline, giving him a very cold and distant air, but he was also able to dispel such an image with just a smile that made him appear more friendly. This stark contrast of his was one of his charms.He said calmly, “I’m not cursing you, I’m just speaking the truth.”He added, “Since I’m not welcome here, I guess I’ll leave.”After he said that, he didn’t wait for Qin Zhongyue to say anything and proceeded to turn and leave.Qin Zhongyue grumbled, “Hurry and go. The longer you stay here, the worse the air becomes!”Shi Yanyi didn’t stop. He was soon outside of their line of sights.Qin Zhongyue complained angrily to Xie Zhongxing, “Did you see that? He’s very black hearted inside. He just doesn’t want to see me do well! Did you hear him curse me?!”Xie Zhongxing. “…..It’s not really a curse. Look at how you are now. And you no longer drink and go clubbing with those friends of yours too. He was talking about your past self. He just doesn’t know what you’re like now.”Hearing this, Qin Zhongyue calmed back down. He exclaimed loudly, “Yeah! He’s just blind!”Xie Zhongxing asked curiously, “Did you two get along well when you were younger?”Qin Zhongyue thought for a moment and said, “We got along pretty well. We belonged to the same circle after all. The Shi family is involved in the electronics industry and can be considered leaders in that field and his father and my father got along well. Before the news of him being an illegitimate child broke out, we still hung out a lot but as soon as that news broke out - that was about two years ago I guess - he was with a woman and Shi Sixin, that’s the name of his father, shopping together and he called that woman ‘mother’. There are no impenetrable walls in this world. Everyone then found out that Shi Yanyu is an illegitimate child and felt that the adoption method used to hide the truth was disgusting. Even now, his legal mother has no idea that he’s an illegitimate child and still treats him as her own son, even forgetting about her own children.”Xie Zhongxing, “No one told the legal wife?”Qin Zhongyue said glumly, “I don’t know. I wanted to tell her at the time but Li Jun told me to drop it. He said that if his legal mother found out the truth, she would still consider Shi Yanyu as her son and I would be looked at with disdain for attempting to break up a perfectly good family.”“I felt that his words made sense. You have no idea how much his legal mother loves him. For an adopted child, she would personally deliver nourishing soup to school for him during the college entrance examination. Her other two children didn’t get this treatment. If she knew the truth, surely she would break down.”Xie Zhongxing thought about it and said, “If she didn’t know the truth, she would be lied to her entire life.”Qin Zhongyue scratched his head, “But she would be happier that way? I heard Shi Yanyu treats her pretty well.”When he was this age in his previous life, that poor aunty also didn’t seem to have known about Shi Yanyu being an illegitimate child and Shi Yanyu was also very good to her….It was just that he outshone his two older brothers and one younger sister a little too much.They were all children born out of wedlock and they naturally rejected the illegitimate child. What’s more, Shi Yanyu himself was also aware of the truth and this made the situation even more uncomfortable.It was also because of this that Qin Zhongyue decided to follow the flow and kick Shi Yanyu out of their circle.The reason why he hated Shi Yanyu in the end was because he often went against him and wouldn’t say anything nice whenever they met.Xie Zhongxing didn’t dwell too much on this topic. He proceeded to put the large bouquet of roses into a vase that was already filled with water.The warmly decorated dining room also seemed to have brightened up with its presence.Qin Zhongyue suddenly became excited. He exclaimed, “I’ll get the aunty to keep an eye on him. He better not kill my dad’s orchids. A single orchid costs several million!”He then left to search for the aunty. Xie Zhongxing wasn’t even able to react before he was gone.*When Qi Yaoming returned home exhausted, it was almost night.As soon as he entered the door, he saw a woman sitting on the sofa in the living room in daze. Her face was so pale, it looked almost bloodless and there was a thick gauze wrapped around her wrist. Even despite that, blood still seeped out from underneath.Qi Yaoming didn’t give that woman a second glance. He very quickly noticed the small gift box on the table and proceeded to walk over in pleasant surprise, “Was this sent by father?”The maid hurriedly explained, “This is a tonic your mother’s friend Aunt Li sent over.”Qi Yaoming’s face immediately fell. It promptly turned into a look of annoyance.He went over to the woman and said rudely, “Hey, can you stop looking like a dead person all the time? Although you are now old, your face is still pretty good and your figure is not bad. If you dressed yourself up a little, wouldn’t dad come back more often?”The woman didn’t respond. Qi Yaoming raised his voice, “Can you hear me? Did you know that dad transferred Qi Jinyu and them to my school? How can you be so useless! Why can’t you try and do something for my sake?!”The more he spoke, the angrier he became. He even smashed a glass in front of the woman but she showed no reaction.Qi Yaoming was extremely angry. He cursed in a low voice, “Stupid.”He then turned and went into his room.Although he had done half a day of physical labour for Qin Zhongyue today, he had at least managed to interact with him. If his mother can’t help him, he can only do it himself!He took out a photo of Qin Zhongyue and took a deep breath. He will definitely make this Qin Zhongyue fall in love with him!What’s so good about that Xie Zhongxing guy? Cold as ice and extremely aloof, he himself is nothing like that. And he also has plenty of experience. No gays wouldn’t like someone like him. Qin Zhongyue's cold reaction towards him today must’ve been because of Xie Zhongxing’s presence.Qi Yaoming gripped tightly onto the photo. He will definitely capture Qin Zhongyue’s heart.In their circle, even if there are gays, they wouldn’t openly date in public. Qin Zhongyue however was very frank about it.He wasn’t like those idiots who liked to play around casually; Qin Zhongyue was serious. If he could get Qin Zhongyue to fall for him, even if they end up breaking up later, the things he would be able to get during that time would surely not disappoint him.Qi Yaoming looked at the photo and revealed a determined smile.Suddenly, pain coming from his back shot through him, distorting his face. Qin Zhongyue had actually made him carry something so heavy!Not only that, he had even sent over the aunty to supervise him!Qi Yaoming gritted his teeth. As soon as he becomes Qin Zhongyue’s boyfriend, he’s going to settle today’s score!*When class ended, someone by the door called out to Xie Zhongxing, “Xie Zhongxing, someone’s looking for you.”Xie Zhongxing thought it was Qin Zhongyue when he heard the lively chatters outside and proceeded to walk out without much thought.But it wasn’t Qin Zhongyue, but Shi Yanyu. He wore a silver-grey suit and was standing there indifferently until Xie Zhongxing appeared, at which he revealed a gentle smile.Xie Zhongxing knitted his brows slightly, “?”He went over to Shi Yanyu and asked calmly, “Are you looking for Qin Zhongyue?”Shi Yanyu, “No, I’m looking for you.”Shi Yanyu lowered his voice and asked, “How about going on a date with me?”Xie Zhongxing's reaction was delayed, “?”He frowned slightly, “What are you trying to do?”Shi Yanyu said bluntly, “I want to steal his boyfriend.”Xie Zhongxing, “…….”Shi Yanyu looked at him and hooked up the corners of his lips to reveal a friendly and charming smile, “As long as the hoe is swung well, there is nothing that can’t be stolen. What do you think?”Xie Zhongxing, “……..”Why does this situation remind him of Qin Zhongyue?
