Chapter 5

"Cough, cough, cough... I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, boss, cough, cough... I'm truly sorry."

Yu He hastily placed the water bottle in the corner. While suppressing his coughing, he squatted down to pat the water off Fu Yunzhen, and amidst his own choking and coughing, he seemed to hear Fu Yunzhen let out a sigh.

It’s over; my job is doomed.

How could it not be ruined? He choked on water and spat it all over the boss, soaking him.

Fortunately, Fu Yunzhen had a camel velvet blanket on his legs. Yu He lifted the blanket and gave it a shake, using the dry part to wipe the water off Fu Yunzhen’s body.

"Cough, cough... Did I get water anywhere else?" Yu He lifted his head, and his gaze unexpectedly collided with Fu Yunzhen’s.

Fu Yunzhen's expression was very faint, as if it wasn't a big deal, yet it also seemed like the calm before a storm.

It was said that Fu Yunzhen was very sensitive about his injured leg after his disability, which is why he always covered it with a blanket. Normally, anyone who took an extra glance would end up in big trouble, and now he had gone and lifted that blanket... Yu He’s heart skipped a beat, and he froze on the spot, waiting for Fu Yunzhen to get angry.

When Fu Yunzhen reached out his hand, Yu He was like a mouse under a snake’s gaze, his whole body tense and motionless.

A warm hand landed next to Yu He’s nose, and Fu Yunzhen used his thumb to wipe away the water beneath Yu He’s nose, treating him like a naughty child who had gotten into trouble.

Not only was he not angry, but he seemed somewhat indulgent.

Fu Yunzhen: "You’ve got a runny nose."

Yu He: "..."

Fu Yunzhen took the blanket back from Yu He's hands, pretending to be nonchalant as he lightly twirled the fringe, covertly wiping his hand with the blanket.

Yu He: "..."

If you say Fu Yunzhen despises him, Fu Yunzhen wiped his nose with his hand;

If you say Fu Yunzhen doesn't despise him, Fu Yunzhen sneakily wiped his hand afterwards.

Go ahead and wipe it off generously; you think I would dare to complain?

Yu He opened his mouth, hesitating several times, unsure of where to start. He stood up, “Let me accompany you to change your clothes.”

Fu Yunzhen’s mood suddenly lifted, and he nodded, “Let's go to my room.”

After washing his hands, Fu Yunzhen turned away from the sink and walked past Yu He, who was standing there, lost in thought.

Yu He followed him into the bedroom, and upon seeing the bed, he felt his mouth go dry.

It was on this very bed that he had entwined himself with Fu Yunzhen last night, demanding insatiably.

Yu He had never been with anyone else, neither top nor bottom, so he didn’t know if this act was inherently pleasurable, or if it was due to their overwhelming compatibility.

Fu Yunzhen’s wheelchair came to a halt: “Why are you following me?”

Yu He half-kneeled down, supporting himself on the armrest of Fu Yunzhen's wheelchair, and looked Fu Yunzhen in the eyes, saying, “To serve you.”

Fu Yunzhen was truly in a good mood today, a stark contrast to his gloominess last night.

His eyes held an almost imperceptible hint of amusement as he looked past Yu He at the dirty laundry basket, counter-questioning, “You know how to serve people?”

Yu He responded, “I can learn. Sign me up, Boss Fu. I’m a good boy.”

Fu Yunzhen lifted Yu He's chin, sizing up his face, “Name your terms?”

Yu He said, “No conditions. Just need a quiet place to stay. I don’t want to sleep under a bridge.”

Fu Yunzhen let go and pondered, “No conditions? That’s not a good deal.”

“Too many people want to play with me,” Yu He admitted honestly. “I just want some peace and quiet.”

Fu Yunzhen rubbed his knuckles, leaning back in his wheelchair, and nodded slightly, “That's more like it. Continue.”

Despite it being an electric wheelchair, Fu Yunzhen managed to emanate the aura of a leather chair.

The more imposing Fu Yunzhen appeared, the easier it was for Yu He to recall how Fu Yunzhen had looked beneath him. This was a primal conquest instinct ingrained in his male bloodline.

Yu He remembered the furrowed brows of Fu Yunzhen from the night before, as well as his restrained moans. He swallowed, reflecting on whether he had been too rough and too hasty.

I'm not sure if I hurt him or not.

I must be more restrained next time.

If there is a next time.

“Wang Wuchuan told me someone has targeted me specifically. Before last night, I thought I might just let things be and let others do as they please... But I’ve changed my mind today.”

Yu He lowered his eyes, feigning sincerity, “Your temperament is better than I expected. Being with you is very... comfortable. So, I want to stay by your side and be exclusively yours.”

Yu He said Fu Yunzhen had a better temperament than he had imagined. Fu Yunzhen also found Yu He more interesting than he had thought.

Fu Yunzhen is a businessman who prefers clear and straightforward communication.

Some old playboys had their eyes on Yu He. Fu Yunzhen had known about this for a long time, and it was the key reason he had someone bring Yu He out from Jinse Terrace.

Fu Yunzhen is not afraid of high demand; high demand signifies a good product, and acquiring it brings more satisfaction.

He looked at Yu He's stunningly attractive features.

Yu He was truly good-looking.

Such finely crafted features on a boy can easily exude a androgynous beauty, but on Yu He, they create a unique and stunning masculinity.

Yu He has a pair of soulful, peach blossom eyes, filled with emotion, yet his brows are clean and sharp. There’s not a hint of femininity in him; on the contrary, he exudes a handsome and distinctive air, coupled with his youthful arrogance, which captivates anyone who lays eyes on him.

Some people like to capture free birds from the sky, clip their wings, and cage them, tormenting them until they’ve exhausted all their pride and spirit, turning them into trembling dogs at the mere lift of a hand.

Fu Yunzhen thinks these people are sick. If they like dogs, they should just keep dogs; why torment a perfectly good crane?

His index finger tapped unconsciously on his leg as he promised, “Stay by my side, and you’ll remain Young Master Yu. No one will dare to bully you.”

If Fu Yunzhen were to keep a bird, he would keep a crane, holding the little celestial crane high, ensuring that those dirty individuals couldn’t even touch its feathers.

As the Book of Songs says: "The crane cries in the Jiugao, its voice heard in the heavens."

This shows that a celestial crane is meant to fly in the sky.

Fu Yunzhen patted Yu He's shoulder, looking like a senior full of hope for a younger one, “I quite like your defiant and arrogant attitude.”

Defiant and arrogant?

Yu He lifted his eyes, looking at Fu Yunzhen with a hint of surprise.

He thought he had been doing quite well. He didn’t expect that, despite his best efforts to please the big boss, the latter would still see through his veneer of obedience, noticing the rebelliousness hidden beneath.

It truly is Fu Yunzhen, adept at discerning the essence through the surface.

Fu Yunzhen seemed to read the thoughts in Yu He’s eyes. He fully affirmed the little crane’s performance and encouraged him, “You did a good job pretending. It was just the ‘worthless’ part I happened to overhear.”

Yu He: “......”

That’s right, if he hadn’t been afraid of Fu Yunzhen hearing that comment, he wouldn’t have ended up choking on water.

Fu Yunzhen lifted his hand, airily smoothing out the corner of Yu He’s eye, “Your eyes, they speak volumes.”

For a moment, Yu He didn’t know what to say. In front of Fu Yunzhen, he was like a blank sheet of paper, unable to hide anything. So, he decided to be straightforward, “Did you notice anything else?”

Fu Yunzhen leaned in slightly, whispering in Yu He’s ear, “When you said you would be mine to play with, your eyes were practically screaming that you wanted to play with me instead.”

Yu He was at a loss for words, thinking, is it really that obvious?

Seeing this, Fu Yunzhen actually let out a laugh, “Yes, it’s that obvious.”
