Chapter 54 – Questions

 

Qi Xi sat on the stool at the end of the bed holding his mobile phone, thinking deeply for a long time. It was so long that the orange cat fell asleep beside him, and he finally replied to Qiu Yizhou.

 

[Lawyer Qiu, Happy New Year to you too!]

 

[Excuse me, do you know qiuaoye? ]

 

Qiu Yizhou leaned on the sofa and watched for a long time. He picked up the glass and took a sip of red wine before returning to Qi Xi.

 

[Are you asking about Qiao Ye? ]

 

[How did you know him? ]

 

It was a long time before Qi Xi’s message came back.

 

[So that’s how you spell it ]

 

[Can you tell me what kind of person he is?]

 

[Is he much smarter than me? Is Brother Yan also very nice to him? ]

 

Qiu Yizhou couldn’t help but chuckle and replied with interest.

 

[Why are you asking this? Do you know what the relationship between Qiao Ye and Fu Yanchuan is? ]

 

Qi Xi’s heart skipped a beat when he saw this question. Qiao Ye was the person he looked like, and Fu Yanchuan had chosen him to be Qiao Ye’s substitute.

 

He composed a reply to Qiu Yizhou’s message. He had typed many times only to delete the messages. He hadn’t figured out how to reply for a long time, and Qiu Yizhou eventually suddenly told him directly.

 

[Qiao Ye and Fu Yanchuan were classmates in college. Because Fu Yanchuan skipped a grade, Qiao Ye is one year older than him.]

 

[If you really want to ask, Qiao Ye is indeed very smart. He and Fu Yanchuan are both legendary academic masters from the same academy.]

 

[However, he and Fu Yanchuan have two extreme personalities. Fu Yanchuan is silent and cold, while Qiao Ye is enthusiastic and cheerful. I don’t know how they met and got together with this setting. Anyway, a year later, Fu Yanchuan went abroad with Qiao Ye and they stayed abroad together for two years.]

 

[During those two years, Qiao Ye often lived in the house rented by Fu Yanchuan, taught Fu Yanchuan how to race, gamble, go to bars, fight, and do whatever they wanted. Both of them were like crazy.]

 

[That’s about it, what else do you want to know? ]

 

Qi Xi read Qiu Yizhou’s words over and over again, and finally replied.

 

[Is Qiao Ye a bad guy? ]

 

Qiu Yizhou laughed for a long time when he saw this. He felt that Qi Xi was really weird. It was such a pity that such a clean and pure person followed a man like Fu Yanchuan who had a completely black heart. Sooner or later, Qi Xi would be eaten by Fu Yanchuan until not even a bone would be left.

 

He stared at the message on his phone. Qi Xi would come to him to ask about Qiao Ye, which meant he must have known something. If Fu Yanchuan was sincere to Qi Xi, how could he let Qi Xi come to ask him?

 

He didn’t want to help Fu Yanchuan explain, so he returned to Qi Xi.

 

[He is very bad compared to you.]

 

[However, if he is considered a bad guy, Fu Yanchuan is a hundred times worse than him.]

 

[Brother Yan is not.]

 

[You don’t know how good he is! ]

 

Qiu Yizhou secretly clicked his tongue and wanted to say more bad things about Fu Yanchuan, but Qi Xi immediately replied with a closing remark.

 

[Thank you, Lawyer Qiu]

 

[Goodbye!]

 

He felt that Qi Xi might be angry when they met again>

 

Qi Xi put down his phone, crawled onto the bed, picked up the orange cat, and stroked the cat while thinking.

 

He couldn’t imagine what Fu Yanchuan, as Qiu Yizhou described him, was like. He just felt that he couldn’t do anything: he couldn’t ride a bike, fight, or drink.

 

“Great Sage!”

 

He jumped up coldly, stared at the wall in front of him with great determination and said, “I want to change and make Brother Yan like me!”

 

The orange cat was sleeping peacefully on Qi Xi’s chest. When he was thrown down, it scratched its head and looked over. “Meow?”

 

“Great Sage, what do you think Brother Yan likes? Someone who can ride a bike and fight?”

 

The orange cat didn’t understand, “Meow?”

 

Qi Xi didn’t get an answer and started thinking to himself, Qiao Ye can race and fight, he must be in good shape and have eight pack abdominal muscles.

 

“I see!”

 

He jumped out of bed and rushed out of the room without even putting on his slippers to look for Fu Yanchuan. After searching for a while, he saw him in the study.

 

Fu Yanchuan was still thinking about what he had done wrong. Shouldn’t he have looked at Qi Xi’s phone?

 

Qi Xi suddenly rushed in, bumped into his arms, knelt on his legs and asked him seriously.

 

“Brother Yan, do you like abdominal muscles?”

 

How did they get to this point again? Fu Yanchuan looked at the serious man without saying anything. Qi Xi then told him, “Next time you go running or exercising, can you take me with you? I want to grow eight-pack abs too!”

 

Fu Yanchuan held Qi Xi’s legs, which were squeezed tightly together on a chair, and found that he didn’t seem to be angry with him. He smiled instantly and asked, “Why did you suddenly think of this again?”

 

Qi Xi turned his face away embarrassedly, “Don’t you like guys with abdominal muscles? I want you to like me more.”

 

Fu Yanchuan immediately figured out the reason, “Did Qiu Yizhou tell you?”

 

Qi Xi didn’t want Fu Yanchuan to know that he went to Qiu Yizhou to ask about Qiao Ye, so he coquettishly hugged him and said, “Don’t ask so many questions, just tell me whether you like it or not!”

 

Fu Yanchuan never had any particular preferences. He felt that Qi Xi was just right, and it would be best if he could grow some more meat. Although Qi Xi was not picky about food, his stomach had never been very good. No matter how carefully he had people prepare his diet, Qi Xi did not grow much meat.

 

He reached up and pinched the soft flesh on Qi Xi’s waist and replied: “If you like it, I will take you, but what if you give up quickly?”

 

“I won’t give up! Because, I——”

 

Qi Xi’s voice became lower and lower, and finally he lowered his head to whisper in Fu Yanchuan’s ear: “–I want you to like me, like Qia–“

 

He didn’t say the rest of the sentence, but Fu Yanchuan asked him directly, “Like what?”

 

“Don’t ask, I won’t tell you.”

 

Fu Yanchuan had his mouth covered by Qi Xi, but it didn’t work at all. He could still speak, so he answered in a muffled voice, “I won’t ask, but if you want me to like you more, you have to work harder on other things.”

 

“Okay.”

 

Qi Xi nodded very confidently. Fu Yanchuan didn’t know what he knew, but after answering him, he jumped down and said, “I will try my best now.”

 

Fu Yanchuan watched the man run away again and asked helplessly, “What are you going to do?”

 

“Work out my abdominal muscles.”

 

Fu Yanchuan got up and followed him. He saw Qi Xi doing horse stance on the balcony. He returned to the study and dialed Qiu Yizhou’s number. After the call was connected, he asked directly, “What did you talk to Qi Xi about?”

 

Qiu Yizhou knew that Fu Yanchuan would come to question him, so he answered him seriously, “Nothing. He asked me what type of boy you like, and I said you like a person who is so simple and cute… Why, did he tell you?

 

What?

 

Fu Yanchuan didn’t completely believe Qiu Yizhou’s words and warned him, “Don’t talk nonsense to him.”

 

Before Qiu Yizhou could make a few sarcastic remarks, Fu Yanchuan hung up the call. QiunYizhou was so angry that he wanted to tell Qi Xi more about Fu Yanchuan’s past with Qiao Ye.

 

At night, the room that Fu Yanchuan had intended to use as a gym but had remained vacant finally became a real gym. However, there were no too difficult equipment, and they were all more suitable for Qi Xi to exercise when he had nothing to do.

 

After the installation was completed, Qi Xi walked in and exclaimed, “Brother Yan, can I still exercise at home?”

 

Fu Yanchuan felt that with Qi Xi’s rate of giving up, he might not go to the gym again after the first time. He might still want to exercise at home. A little exercise might help Qi Xi’s body to improve immunity and reduce the risk of illness in the future.

 

However, Qi Xi only thought about training his abdominal muscles to seduce Fu Yanchuan, and he rushed to try them one by one. He felt very good and thought that it was just a matter of time for him to grow abdominal muscles.

 

“Come over.”

 

Fu Yanchuan called Qi Xi, who was messing around, over and asked him to lie on the bench. “Sit-ups are the best way to train your abdominal muscles. Try it.”

 

Qi Xi lay down confidently, but Fu Yanchuan sat on his trapped foot. He sat up and just touched Fu Yanchuan’s forehead. He froze there and asked, “What should I do if you do this? What if I bump into you?”

 

Fu Yanchuan replied seriously: “If I can’t hit you, I’ll count for you.”

 

Qi Xi responded with a nasal sound and went back to continue, but his eyes were unconsciously staring at Fu Yanchuan’s face, which moved from far to near and then from near to far. When it was close, he could even feel Fu Yanchuan’s breathing.

 

Finally, he sat up and stopped moving. He then said, “Brother Yan, can you please move aside? You have been here all the time and I can’t help but look at your face. If this continues on then I’d want to kiss you.”

 

Fu Yanchuan raised the corners of his lips slightly, “Try it.”

 

Qi Xi raised his eyelids and looked into Fu Yanchuan’s eyes. He then closed them for a moment, held Fu Yanchuan’s face and kissed him.

 

Thus, Qi Xi’s first night of training ended like this. On the following days, he refused to let Fu Yanchuan sit in front of him no matter what.

 

In this way, Qi Xi managed to hold out for three nights. The Spring Festival holiday was over, Fu Yanchuan was about to go to work, and Xie Hui was about to leave again.

 

On the day Xie Hui left, Fu Yanchuan took Qi Xi to see Xie Hui off. While waiting for security check, Qi Xi and Xie Hui talked for a long time. Even Xie’s father and mother didn’t talk as much as Qi Xi.

 

Finally, Xie Hui was going through security check. Qi Xi couldn’t bear to let him go and chased after him, hugging Xie Hui tightly and not letting go.

 

“You’re going to strangle me to death!”

 

Qi Xi finally loosened his grip a little, but he still held Xie Hui’s neck tightly. Xie Hui glanced at Fu Yanchuan who was staring at him, and whispered in Qi Xi’s ear: “Remember what I said. Don’t fall in love with Fu Yanchuan, understand?”

 

Qi Xi wasn’t sure if he understood, but he felt guilty about Xie Hui’s words. He let go of his reluctant hand and pushed Xie Hui inside, “Go quickly! Remember to send me a message!”

 

When Xie Hui saw Qi Xi’s expression, he knew that this idiot was completely doomed. He glared at Fu Yanchuan fiercely. The broadcast reminded him that he was about to board the plane and he had to go through security.

 

Father Xie sighed and said happily, “Finally, that bastard is gone! He kept annoying me every day!”

 

Xie’s mother slapped him and said, “How can you be a father like this!”

 

Qi Xi turned around and said, “Uncle, Auntie, where are you going next?”

 

Xie’s father always felt that he should have a son like Qi Xi. Xie Hui was as wild as a monkey since he was young and had no knowledge of elegance. When Qi Xi came to their house for the first time, he wondered if Xie Hui was taken away from Qi Xi when he was born.

 

When talking to Qi Xi, he unconsciously raised his voice, “We have to go shopping for groceries later, so we can’t take you home. Even if Xie Hui isn’t here, you can come to our house more often.”

 

“Thank you uncle, I will definitely go.”

 

Fu Yanchuan came over and grabbed Qi Xi, “Let’s go.”

 

Qi Xi was dragged away and turned back to say goodbye, “Uncle, Auntie, we are leaving first, bye!”

 

Xie’s father and mother looked at Fu Yanchuan strangely. Although Fu Yanchuan did not do anything out of line, people who have lived for decades can always sense something.

 

It was already afternoon, and Fu Yanchuan had no intention of returning to the group, so he went straight back with Qi Xi.

 

Before dinner, Qi Xi remembered to train his abdominal muscles again. Although he trained other exercises like they were fun, he was pretty good at sit-ups.

 

Fu Yanchuan was a little surprised that Qi Xi could hold on for so many days, except for the first night when Qi Xi didn’t let him go in with him. But although the equipment was not dangerous, he was still afraid that Qi Xi might have an accident if he didn’t use it properly, so he leaned against the door and watched him, or he used the excuse of jogging to watch from the side.

 

When he followed him in today, Qi Xi was looking at his smooth belly in front of the mirror. When he saw him in the mirror, he immediately turned around and grabbed his hand and pressed it on his belly, “Brother Yan, am I pregnant?”

 

Fu Yanchuan was amused by him, “What is it?”

 

“Abdominal muscles! Feel them.”

 

He lowered his eyes, and although he couldn’t see it clearly, he did feel some muscle. He put his palm completely on it and said, “I felt it.”

 

Qi Xi raised his expectant face and asked him, “Do you like me a little more?”

 

Qi Xi changed into sportswear, which he personally chose. It fits tightly to his body, and you can see clearly where he is exerting force when exercising. At this time, Qi Xi’s body is wrapped in a close-fitting gray sportswear, with only the belly exposed.

 

Fu Yanchuan suppressed the rise and fall of his chest, moved closer and pushed the man against the mirror. He lifted Qi Xi’s legs and made Qi Xi hang on him.

 

Qi Xi was suddenly suspended in the air, and his limbs subconsciously wrapped around him, pressing himself against him. Qi Xi turned away with red ears.

 

He moved closer and sucked Qi Xi’s lips, gently stroking them with the tip of his tongue, deliberately making him embarrassed.

 

These days, Qi Xi always asked him from time to time if he liked him a little more. Qi Xi would not say such things for no reason. Even if it was not Qiu Yizhou, someone must have said something to Qi Xi.

 

Several times he wanted to look at Qi Xi’s phone but held back. He was very aware of his own shortcomings.

 

Everything that belongs to him should be under his control. This is what he learned from Fu Zhenrong. No matter how much he says that he is different from Fu Zhenrong, it cannot change the fact that he has already learned the same methods as Fu Zhenrong. Sometimes he is afraid that one day he will not be able to control himself and hurt Qi Xi.

 

So he tried his best not to influence Qi Xi’s thoughts and restrained his inner desire to control everything about Qi Xi.

 

He finally slightly left Qi Xi’s lips and asked: “Xi Xi, do you want me to like you more?”
