Chapter 52 – Confession

 

Fu Yanchuan and Qi Xi played cards the whole afternoon. Except for Fu Jinghong, the other three got drunk and didn’t even have dinner.

 

Fu Yanchuan did not go to the banquet at noon, but he took Qi Xi there for dinner. When they arrived at the banquet, they found out that Fu Zhenrong had already left. Although the Fu family relied on Fu Zhenrong to stay in power, the atmosphere of the New Year was even more festive without Fu Zhenrong.

 

The dinner ended in a lively atmosphere. Although some people were curious about Qi Xi, Fu Yanchuan was not much better than Fu Zhenrong, and no one dared to really look at him.

 

When leaving the table, Fu Yanchuan was stopped by Fu Shengchang. He knew what Fu Shengchang wanted to say to him and didn’t want Qi Xi to listen to those old-fashioned words with him, so he asked Fu Jinghong to take Qi Xi out first.

 

When Qi Xi saw these elders of the Fu family, he felt that each of them was scary and was afraid that Fu Yanchuan would be beaten again.

 

He and Fu Jinghong walked to the corridor outside, stopped in front of a floor-to-ceiling window, and looked at the night outside through the window.

 

In the Fu family, Fu Jinghong is one of those who is content with the status quo. He owns a small amount of shares in the group, which is wealth that ordinary people cannot reach. With the help of the Fu family, he can start his business. Although he cannot make it to the rich list, he will never lack money in his life. If he does not do well, the Fu family will cover him.

 

In this kind of life, you can have whatever you want. He doesn’t understand why some people are not satisfied and have to fight with each other. Even if they win that big group, they will lose so much hair. Wouldn’t it be better to just lie down and let Fu Yanchuan make money for all of them?

 

He leaned against the wall, bit a cigarette and took it off, looked at Qi Xi and asked, “Are you worried about Yanchuan?”

 

Qi Xi immediately asked him back, “Who was that person just now? Will he hit Brother Yan?”

 

Fu Jinghong couldn’t help laughing, “Do you think anyone can bully him? In the entire Fu family, he is the second biggest devil. Except for his father, no one is not afraid of him.”

 

“Is his father very fierce? Does he beat him often?”

 

“That’s not the case. This is the first time Uncle Fu has attacked Yanchuan. This is also the first time I’ve seen him so angry. It seems like he’s really pissed off by you guys.”

 

When Qi Xi heard the word “you”, he became sad again. He felt that it was because of him that Fu Yanchuan was beaten. Fu Yanchuan’s father must not like him very much. But at the same time, he also did not like Fu Yanchuan’s father.

 

Fu Jinghong saw Qi Xi suddenly become depressed, not knowing what he had said wrong. He quickly crumpled the cigarette into a ball and asked him what was wrong. Then he heard footsteps at the other end of the corridor.

 

He looked up and saw another troublesome person. He called out reluctantly, “Sister Hui.”

 

Sister Hui is their cousin, one of those who is keen on “fighting for each other”. Her full name is Shen Jiahui. Before Fu Yanchuan and Miss He were about to get engaged, she revealed to the cousin of the He family that Fu Yanchuan was hiding a beautiful boy.

 

“Fu Jinghong, are you bullying me again?”

 

Shen Jiahui looked at Qi Xi and accused Fu Jinghong. Qi Xi quickly explained, “No, I didn’t do anything.”

 

“Then what’s the point of that expression?”

 

Shen Jiahui looked at Qi Xi carefully. She had never believed that Fu Yanchuan would really fall in love with someone. He had been away from Qiao Ye for two years but still came back. Now this guy seemed to be more beautiful and delicate, but not as capable as Qiao Ye. She thought Fu Yanchuan stayed with him just to show off to Fu Zhenrong and to refuse to get married.

 

But she didn’t expect Fu Yanchuan to be serious and even bring him here.

 

She was in favor of Fu Yanchuan being with a man, and smiled and said to Qi Xi: “In our family, it’s a little complicated, and most people would be scared.”

 

She then comforted Qi Xi, “But you don’t have to think too much. Fu Yanchuan is the second in the Fu family. No one would dare to do anything to you except his father. Uncle won’t be so disgraced as to deal with you.”

 

Qi Xi didn’t know who the other person was, and he didn’t know how to respond. He rarely interacted with the opposite sex, so he didn’t know what to say.

 

Shen Jiahui noticed his nervousness and softened her tone, “Don’t be so nervous. Do I look scary?”

 

“No.” Qi Xi answered truthfully. He thought Shen Jiahui was very beautiful, but not as beautiful as Fu Yanchuan, which was a bit aggressive. And she was very tall, almost as tall as him. He was a little envious of why everyone in the Fu family was so tall.

 

Shen Jiahui added: “I am Fu Yanchuan’s cousin, I just want to chat with you.”

 

“What are you talking about?”

 

He asked, and Shen Jiahui suddenly leaned in and lowered her voice, “How far have you and Fu Yanchuan come? Have you considered getting married?”

 

“Ah?”

 

When Qi Xi heard about getting married, his brain froze. How could he and Fu Yanchuan get married?

 

Shen Jiahui looked at Qi Xi for a moment, thinking that he was afraid to think about getting married, and told him, “You can be bolder. Fu Yanchuan has never brought anyone here. Although you can’t get married in China, he has a lot of assets abroad. You can get married abroad, and you can inherit a lot of his inheritance when he dies.”

 

Fu Jinghong, who was standing next to him, felt his scalp tingling after hearing this. Shen Jiahui had been trying to sow discord between Fu Yanchuan and Fu Zhenrong. What she hoped most was that Fu Yanchuan and Fu Zhenrong would fight so that she could benefit from it.

 

But he was worried that Fu Yanchuan would hear him because she said such exaggerated things. In the end, she would not gain any benefit since Fu Yanchuan would deal with her eventually.

 

Qi Xi’s mind was completely confused. He looked at Shen Jiahui, “What are you talking about? How could Brother Yan die?”

 

“I was talking about you marrying him. Why did you focus on this?”

 

“But, but, why should I marry Brother Yan?”

 

Shen Jiahui was speechless and looked at Qi Xi for a long while, “Don’t you want to marry him? Or did Fu Yanchuan tell you that he doesn’t want to get married? People like him definitely don’t know how to fall in love. Tell me and I’ll talk to him for you.”

 

“No, you misunderstood.”

 

Qi Xi explained, “Brother Yan and I are friends.”

 

“Friend?”

 

Shen Jiahui was also confused. She didn’t believe that Fu Yanchuan brought a friend to the family gathering to sleep in the same room, and give out red envelopes. But Qi Xi’s reaction made her a little confused.

 

Qi Xi thought for a moment, lowered his eyes and said, “Not just that, I am also, he——”

 

In the end, he didn’t want to tell others that he was Fu Yanchuan’s substitute.

 

Shen Jiahui stared at Qi Xi’s face, and suddenly realized something and asked him: “Do you know Qiao Ye?”

 

Qi Xi didn’t know whether it was out of intelligence or intuition that he immediately realized who Qiao Ye was and asked Shen Jiahui, “Is he the person Brother Yan likes?”

 

Fu Jinghong also became nervous when he heard this name. No one knew what happened in those two years. In the past few years, no one in the Fu family dared to mention Qiao Ye in front of Fu Yanchuan.

 

Qi Xi then asked: “Can you tell me about Qiao Ye? Does Brother Yan like him very much?”

 

Shen Jiahui was not sure what Fu Yanchuan was thinking. Could it be that he brought Qi Xi here just to piss off Fu Zhenrong? Was he just playing around with Qi Xi? Did he even deliberately find someone who looked a bit like Qiao Ye?

 

She asked Qi Xi, “Do you really want to know?”

 

After being asked this, Qi Xi didn’t want to know anymore. He looked at Shen Jiahui without answering.

 

Shen Jiahui felt that this child was very easy to understand. No matter what Fu Yanchuan thought, Qi Xi definitely liked Fu Yanchuan.

 

She deliberately said: “Tell me first, do you like Fu Yanchuan? Do you want to marry him?”

 

Qi Xi was stunned by the question again. How did it jump from liking to getting married in such a short time? He had never thought about this question.

 

Shen Jiahui laughed at Qi Xi’s reaction and said to him seriously, “Fu Yanchuan didn’t like Qiao Ye, and it happened many years ago. He was only a teenager at the time, so how could he like him? Don’t think too much. Fu Yanchuan must like you. If you like him, you must hold on to him. If you like someone, you must do everything you can to get him, understand?”

 

Qi Xi was confused again, but nodded at Shen Jiahui unconsciously.

 

Fu Jinghong felt that his cousin was truly a talented person, and he didn’t believe that Fu Yanchuan would really fight with Fu Zhenrong for the so-called love.

 

But when he thought about it, Fu Yanchuan’s performance in the chess and card room popped up in his mind. He also thought of Fu Yuejiang, who was such a bastard and self-righteous at the beginning, but has been like that since Qin Hui’s death. Suddenly, he felt that it was not impossible.

 

Fu Yanchuan came over and saw Shen Jiahui talking to Qi Xi. His first reaction was to break up the conversation as soon as possible. He hurried over to stand between Qi Xi and Shen Jiahui and glared at them. “Sister Hui, what are you doing here?”

 

Shen Jiahui admired Fu Yanchuan’s expression without caring and replied: “It’s just a chat with Qi Xi, why are you so nervous? What do you think I said to him?”

 

She asked Qi Xi, “Qi Xi, we had a great chat, didn’t we?”

 

Qi Xi looked at Fu Yanchuan with a look of confusion and nodded. Shen Jiahui said goodbye, “I’m leaving first. Qi Xi, don’t forget what I said, see you next time.”

 

After Shen Jiahui left, Fu Yanchuan was reluctant to ask Qi Xi, fearing that Qi Xi would hear something bad, so he turned to Fu Jinghong with his eyes to ask.

 

Fu Jinghong saw Fu Yanchuan’s nervous expression and thought that love was a magical thing. He didn’t want to be implicated, so he shrugged and said, “It’s just a casual chat. I wish you guys a good sleep!”

 

Qi Xi and Fu Yanchuan were the only ones left in the corridor. Qi Xi was still thinking about what Shen Jiahui said. He reached out and hugged Fu Yanchuan, “Brother Yan, it’s a bit cold here.”

 

Fu Yanchuan immediately hugged the person and held him tightly in his arms, “Let’s back to the room.”

 

Back in the room, Qi Xi was still in a bad mood. Fu Yanchuan waited for him to come out of the shower, then hugged him and pressed him on the toffee chair by the window.

 

Qi Xi turned his back to the night outside the window. He leaned over and asked, “What did you hear?”

 

Qi Xi was too embarrassed to say that he was thinking about marrying Fu Yanchuan, so he quickly shook his head to hide his guilty conscience. He moved his limbs toward Fu Yanchuan and said, “Brother Yan, I like you.”

 

Fu Yanchuan’s heart skipped a beat at the sudden confession. Although Qi Xi had said many times that he liked him, this was the first time he had said it so bluntly with the words “I and you”.

 

Qi Xi hugged him tighter again and continued, “I really like you, even more than Xie Hui! I really like you.”

 

“Okay.”

 

Fu Yanchuan’s calm expression was accompanied by a pounding heart. He pushed Qi Xi’s face up.

 

He was sure that Shen Jiahui had not said anything good about him to Qi Xi, and that Qi Xi had suddenly confessed to him because he was feeling uneasy. He assured Qi Xi with great certainty.

 

“Xixi, no matter what others tell you, don’t believe it.”

 

Qi Xi was shocked. Can’t he believe it?

 

Fu Yanchuan didn’t give him a chance to ask again, and kissed him on the lips. He instantly forgot what he wanted to say to Fu Yanchuan and lay down on the toffee chair. Fu Yanchuan lifted his pajamas and suddenly leaned close to his ear and asked, “Do you remember what you said last time?”

 

“What?”

 

Qi Xi narrowed his eyes, which had just been closed. Fu Yanchuan sat up and looked at him, pulling off the belt of his pajamas. “You’ll use my hands this time, okay?”

 

He suddenly thought of the last time and his face turned red. He thought Fu Yanchuan was going to let him use his hand. In fact, Fu Yanchuan had helped him like this many times. He nodded gently, and Fu Yanchuan leaned down and kissed him again.

 

They were very close to each other, and the space was not spacious enough, so they were squeezed together tightly. He could feel Fu Yanchuan when he was kissed, and all his senses were concentrated there in an instant.

 

Fu Yanchuan noticed his nervousness and coaxed him from his lips, “Don’t be afraid, didn’t you say it was roasted sweet potatoes?”

 

Qi Xi happened to remember this, and immediately turned his face away and hid on the backrest, “Don’t say anything anymore, I didn’t say that!”

 

Fu Yanchuan laughed quietly, leaned over and kissed his ear, “You didn’t say that, I said it. Turn around and look at me, okay?”

 

After several seconds, Qi Xi finally turned his face back, and Fu Yanchuan immediately kissed him. He then picked him up and switched positions with him, so that Fu Yanchuan was leaning on the back of the chair and he was lying on top of Fu Yanchuan’s legs.

 

“Brother Yan!”

 

Qi Xi lowered his eyes. Fu Yanchuan’s bathrobe was half opened at some point. He grabbed the clothes on Fu Yanchuan’s shoulders. Fu Yanchuan pushed his face up with his other hand and kissed him again, saying, “Xixi, look at me.”

 

He looked at Fu Yanchuan, but his sensory reaction told him what Fu Yanchuan was doing. He unconsciously straightened his back, and Fu Yanchuan’s hand gently stroked him and pressed him down.

 

He leaned on Fu Yanchuan’s shoulder and finally understood what Fu Yanchuan meant by using his hand. He was trembling with the heat from Fu Yanchuan’s hand and couldn’t help breathing heavier. Fu Yanchuan’s hand was much bigger than his, and when he held his hand together, he bit Fu Yanchuan’s neck.

 

Fu Yanchuan paused for a moment, put his lips close to his ear and asked, “Are you nervous?”

 

“Yeah.” He replied with a nasal sound, and Fu Yanchuan coaxed him, “Then Xixi should come and kiss me, okay?”

 

After a long while, he responded with a soft nasal sound, just like Fu Yanchuan was kissing him. He gently sucked the place where he bit Fu Yanchuan, rolled his tongue over and moved forward along the base of his ear. He finally reaching Fu Yanchuan’s lips.

 

Fu Yanchuan smiled at him, and he said, dissatisfied: “Don’t laugh at me.”

 

“I am not laughing.”

 

Fu Yanchuan opened his eyes and looked at Qi Xi before speaking, “Stick out your tongue.”

 

Qi Xi closed his eyes and looked at Fu Yanchuan. He then stretched out his tongue. Fu Yanchuan sucked on it but was not satisfied with just that. He held his tongue and said, “Xixi, kiss me.”

 

“Okay.”

 

Qi Xi responded with a meaningless moan. He hugged Fu Yanchuan tightly and finally squeezed into Fu Yanchuan’s mouth. Fu Yanchuan’s hand started roaming at this time. Qi Xi was so scared that he wanted to escape, but Fu Yanchuan held him down tightly with his other hand and easily caught his tongue in his mouth, making it impossible for him to escape anywhere.

 

The winter night was pitch black. And the glass of the French window showed two people sitting on the chairs, hugging each other under the dim warm light.
