[Side CP Extra] Their Second Life (4)
Xiang Wanxing took Chen Zirui back to the Chen family.
He kept his promise; as long as Chen Zirui didn’t agree, he wouldn’t take off the other’s pants.
However, this agreement wasn’t very useful. In reality, as long as Xiang Wanxing displayed his “money power,” Chen Zirui would obediently lie beneath him, letting him take what he wanted.
He thought it would go on like this forever. Once he completely eradicated the hidden danger of his older brother, he would find a time to propose to Chen Zirui.
But he didn’t expect Chen Zirui to actually harbor thoughts of separating from him.
Ever since Chen Zirui returned to the military, it was hard for Xiang Wanxing to even see him once. Every time he went to the military, Chen Zirui would try every means to hide from him.
Even going so far as to make mistakes in front of his superiors just to avoid meeting him as much as possible.
Xiang Wanxing didn’t want to push Chen Zirui too hard, giving him ample time to cool off. But as the day for Chen Zirui to go to the battlefield approached, Chen Zirui was still hiding from him.
Xiang Wanxing’s patience reached its limit; he could only go catch him personally.
Before he could even question him, Chen Zirui frowned and said, “What are you doing here?”
Xiang Wanxing laughed out of anger. “Why are you hiding from me? What exactly is our situation now?”
Chen Zirui shrugged. “Let’s end the transaction. I don’t want to be f*cked by you anymore.”
Xiang Wanxing hadn’t expected Chen Zirui to say such a thing. Astonishment appeared on his beautiful face.
“Let’s just be strangers from now on. This experience wasn’t honorable anyway. If we happen to meet in the future, let’s pretend we don’t know each other.”
Hearing his words clearly, the air pressure around Xiang Wanxing dropped, and he stared at him with icy eyes.
Chen Zirui seemed frightened by his expression. After swallowing his saliva, his tone became softer.
“How about this: consider it me being dumped by you. I’ll roll far away in the future and absolutely won’t cause you trouble.” Chen Zirui got more spirited as he spoke. “Besides, I’m going to the battlefield. You know my ability is just so-so; maybe I’ll die there before long.”
Xiang Wanxing couldn’t listen anymore. Ignoring Chen Zirui’s resistance, he lowered his head and kissed the other’s lips.
A moment later, his susceptibility period suddenly arrived.
Xiang Wanxing suddenly adopted a ‘let it rot’ mentality. If Chen Zirui marked him right now, he would accept it.
Given Chen Zirui’s personality, there was a high probability he would take responsibility for him.
But he forgot, Chen Zirui simply wouldn’t take advantage of someone in danger at such a time.
Chen Zirui gave him an inhibitor injection, picked up his luggage again, and prepared to leave.
Watching his retreating back, Xiang Wanxing felt fear for the first time.
He was afraid of losing Chen Zirui. So, abandoning reason, he knelt on one knee and proposed to Chen Zirui.
He hadn’t prepared a ring, so he took off the jade pendant he had worn since birth and devoutly handed it to Chen Zirui.
Chen Zirui looked at him in surprise, neither refusing nor accepting.
Xiang Wanxing didn’t force him to give an answer on the spot. He was afraid that if he pushed too hard, he would only get a rejection.
Of course, it was impossible for him to do nothing.
He used his connections to have the military eliminate Chen Zirui.
This plan was intended to be implemented long ago. He had never intended to let Chen Zirui go to the battlefield, just waiting for a suitable time to cut Chen Zirui.
Now was an exceptionally good time.
After being eliminated from the military, Chen Zirui didn’t seek his help immediately but went to find Gu Huaiye again.
Xiang Wanxing could only storm Gu Huaiye’s home once more to drag Chen Zirui back.
Chen Zirui didn’t want to leave, but couldn’t drive Xiang Wanxing away, so he took him downstairs to the apartment building.
“Xiang Wanxing, what exactly do you want?” Chen Zirui frowned, looking unhappy. “This is Brother Gu’s home. Isn’t it a bit inappropriate for you to come disturb them like this?”
“I gave them this apartment. The ownership is mine.”
Chen Zirui: “……”
Xiang Wanxing didn’t want to quarrel with Chen Zirui, bowing his head first.
“I’ve been waiting for your answer for a long time. You make me very uneasy like this. Can you stop hiding from me?”
It was his first time actively showing weakness to someone.
If it were the old him, he wouldn’t have dared to imagine such a day.
