“T…That is to say, Su Qing is the… jinx being worshipped by Luo Yi and that miser?” After being pulled away by Gu Chen, Long Junhao once again proposed to be discharged from the hospital but was quickly made aware of very grievous news. His soul, which he had managed to keep in his body so far, was once again flying out of his body from fright.
Gu Chen nodded silently, with a look that said he had accepted his fate, “we have verified with countless facts that his words are often very accurate, whether good or bad, but he usually doesn’t like to say good things.”
Long Junhao’s expression suddenly distorted and after a long while, he opened his mouth, “…did you hear what the jinx said just now?”
Gu Chen nodded slowly and silently again, and patted his shoulder comfortingly, “Hao Hao, be more positive. We’ve been cursed by him countless times before so we’ve gotten used to it. You’ll get used to it in the future too.”
Long Junhao went crazy again, circling around in anger, “he said that Lei Yan would take me away, cut off my tendons and hamstrings, cut off my tongue, and then gouge out my eyes! How am I supposed to be positive?! Get used to it? I’ll get used to it when I become a ghost!” He cried out while circling, “no, your prince must get out of here, he doesn’t want to see you people anymore, all of you aren’t normal human beings. Your prince will really go crazy if he stays here any longer!”
Gu Chen sat on the big bed and silently watched him turn, and prompted, “Hao Hao, if you continue to circle…”
“Don’t, don’t call me, give me some quiet,” Long Junhao quickly interrupted him and continued to turn, “your prince needs to find a good way to get out of here and far, far away from you people. Even better if your prince never sees you people a…gain…” He suddenly reached out and held his forehead, his body beginning to sway.
“You’ll get dizzy…” Gu Chen was finally able to finish what was interrupted just now, but it was too late. He helplessly reached out to hold his wrist and pulled him over.
Long Junhao couldn’t balance at all and when pulled, his whole person fell over and onto Gu Chen. The two fell onto the bed one after another. A prince laid himself on the human flesh cushion and held his head while murmuring, “stars…”
With Long Junhao on him, Gu Chen was filled with warmth and tenderness. Without thinking, he immediately turned over and hugged him tightly. Long Junhao slowly returned to his senses and stretched out his hand to push him, “hey…”
“Be good, don’t move,” Gu Chen buried his head in his neck and said in a low voice, “let me hold you for a while.”
Long Junhao subconsciously remembered that moment when the countdown ended and couldn’t help asking, “what if it really blew up just now?”
Gu Chen chuckled and kissed him on his neck, “what can I do? I’ll go down with you.”
Long Jun Hao’s heart trembled and he reached out to hug him. After a long silence, he said, “peasant, you are really good to this prince.”
“…If you stop calling me that, I’ll be even better.”
“Then forget it.”
“Oh, why?”
“In this situation…your prince intuitively thinks that your ‘better’ means something else.”
Gu Chen laughed again, looked at him and praised, “Your Highness has always been smart.” After saying that, he pressed his chin and lowered his head to kiss him.
The moist and warm lips and tongue intertwined with each other, providing constant solace. The little numbness from the entanglement spread out little by little, slowly swallowing up all the limbs and Gu Chen ran his hand gently through Long Junhao’s hair, making him raise his head. The fiery kiss went down from his chin inch by inch, and Gu Chen’s hands quickly slid down to take off the prince’s clothes, then he got up and began to take off his white coat, unbuttoning his shirt one by one.
Long Junhao’s eyes were moist and he squinted as he watched Gu Chen strip, subconsciously wanting to say something. But at this moment there was a slight grunting sound in the room and the two of them turned their heads to look, only to see a bone from the cabinet slowly rolling out. Then a small dog quickly appeared, bit onto the bone and rolled all over the ground, looking like it was having a lot of fun.
Immediately, a sentence flashed in both of their minds — Gu Chen and Li Xuan were not allowed to enter. They were silent for a while, then they slowly looked at each other. One was half-naked and lying on his back with his waist slightly curved, the other was half-kneeling, nearly half-naked, and the thoughts in his eyes were not concealed in the slightest.
“…” The prince said, “peasant, didn’t you see the big characters on the door of your prince’s room?”
“…” Gu Chen said, “Your Highness, can we discuss this later?”
“No,” a certain prince reached out and stroked his face, “peasant, your prince has said before that if you want to live with him, you must first take him out of this damn place. Save your breath if you’re not going to do that, okay?” He grabbed Gu Chen’s wrist, “since you’re Lei Yan’s younger brother, will he still try to catch me after we’re together? He already knows about us, right?”
Gu Chen sighed, “you should know that he only set the bomb to five minutes. He knew early on that we wouldn’t be to find anyone to defuse the bomb in such a short period of time.”
Long Junhao was dumbfounded, “doesn’t he know that Shu Wen can defuse bombs?”
“I don’t know,” Gu Chen explained, “Shu Wen knows a lot more but the reason why he became like this has nothing to do with bombs. Lei Yan won’t find anything even if he investigates in advance because Shu Wen has nothing to be investigated.”
“Then…” Long Junhao’s face turned pale, “then he was going to kill me from the very beginning?”
Gu Chen nodded, leaned over and hugged him, “what he said about sparing your life was all a lie, but since he made a promise, he really won’t kill you again, but…”
Long Junhao sniffed, “but that jinx said something…so I will still be miserable…”
Gu Chen sighed again and patted his head, telling him that he should accept his fate.
Long Junhao was instantly angry, “where did he learn those jinxing skills? Wouldn’t he accidentally curse himself too?”
“Yes,” Gu Chen slowly took off his shirt and pulled the quilt to cover their bodies. He continued to explain, “he also cursed himself. I remember when we were young, while the both of us were chatting, Su Cong came to play with him with candy, and his face was a little red because he ran fast. Su Qing said at the time that his brother was so beautiful that he might be charmed when he grew up, and then that’ll become incest.”
Long Junhao’s mouth dropped and he was completely shocked, “what did you say?! Then…then they…”
“Yeah,” Gu Chen touched his chin, “so Su Qing is now giving up his life for their sake.”
“What do you mean?”
“I told you that their family is big and messy, right? They were not born from the same mother, and since ancient times, there has always been a dispute to establish a long-term successor.” Gu Chen took off Long Junhao’s remaining clothes while he was distracted and explained patiently, “Su Cong is the heir, but Su Qing is the eldest son.”
Long Junhao thought for a while, biting his fingers, “right now, Su Qing is in charge, so you mean they… have a grudge?”
“He forcefully took that seat. The original plan was for Su Cong to take it.” Gu Chen continued to explain, and slowly took off the rest of his clothes. He leaned over and hugged him, the feeling of skin touching made him very comfortable.
Long Junhao continued to think about the topic and stretched his hand weakly, “so they’re enemies?”
“No, their relationship has always been very good, and Su Cong was not very interested in being the head of the family.”
“So that jinx took it?”
“He didn’t do it for this reason,” Gu Chen looked at the face that was close to his and kissed him on the cheek, and then continued, “the older the family is, the more complicated the interests of the elders. The power of these people together should not be underestimated and they are mutually restrained by the head. Su Qing wants to cut off all the rights of these people and monopolise the power. When that happens, he can be with whoever he wants to be with and no one will dare to say anything. But that’s not easy to do, if he’s not careful, he will die, and then those people will help Su Cong up.”
“Uh… Does Su Cong know? No, I mean does Su Cong know what the jinx thinks of him?”
“He knows. It was revealed after Su Qing became the head,” Gu Chen took him in his arms again, “but Su Cong was unable to accept it, so he moved here.”
A certain prince suddenly realised, “oh…then you and Lei Yan are also in this kind of relationship?”
“…” Gu Chen said, “what kind of relationship is this?”
Long Junhao touched his nose, “you guys appear very complicated… Uh, could it be about loving and killing each other, sadistic love?”
“…” Gu Chen said, “be good, you’re thinking too much. Lei Yan is the eldest and the heir and I’m an illegitimate child. But my father has always loved my mother so after Lei Yan’s mother died, he took us back. Now, he has thrown away his authority and is travelling around the world with my mother so it’s right for Lei Yan to hate me. That guy has never had any emotions so if things continue to develop, he might even kill me.”
“So messy…” Long Junhao slowly shrank back, “your family is terrifying, your prince must not enter your family.”
“It’s fine,” Gu Chen pulled him over and said with a smile, “Your Highness, don’t forget that I’m your concubine now, I was accepted just today.”
Only then did Long Junhao realise the current situation. He froze immediately, “peasant, when did you take off your prince’s clothes?”
Gu Chen turned over in a good mood and leaned into him, “just now.”
“Peasant! Get off… mmph!”
Gu Chen kissed him without waiting for him to finish his words and gently caressed him, making his tense body quickly relax. He held him tightly in his arms and kissed him carefully, with unusual intimacy.
“Seriously…” Gu Chen looked up at Long Junhao’s steamy eyes while still teasing, “what did you think of at the moment of the explosion?
Long Junhao was locked tightly in his arms and completely at the mercy of him. The temperature of his body continued to rise and he gasped, “…do you really want to know?”
Gu Chen continued to set his body on fire, “really.”
Long Junhao moaned. His body was being held, and he was slowly being stimulated. He took a few more breaths, “I was thinking about two graves… mm… I became a butterfly after I died…”
Gu Chen smiled and bit his lips, “ah, the Butterfly Lovers1a 1994 romance film, it’s rare for you to be romantic.”
“No…” A certain prince shook his head vaguely, “you became a moth… a big moth…”
“…” Gu Chen said, “Your Highness, you can forget about getting off the bed.”
“No—” A certain prince immediately struggled to crawl out, but was easily restrained by his concubine, pulled back into the bed, and was devoured.
When Li Xuan walked into the pavilion again, Su Qing was the only one left inside. His subordinates were all standing outside, and he was still drinking tea.
Li Xuan was instantly happy, sat down opposite him and looked at him with a smile.
Su Qing said calmly, “I think I spoiled him…”
“Come on,” Li Xuan said without thinking, “if you really loved him, you shouldn’t have held him in bed and forced him to bear all this.”
“I didn’t want to either. It’s just that I couldn’t find a good way back then, and I was drunk too,” Su Qing’s tone was still very calm. “As a result, he doesn’t pay much attention to me now unless I piss him off, you said if I have any troubles in the future… mmf!”
Li Xuan quickly covered his mouth, ” think it over before you talk!”
The both of them looked at each other, the light in his eyes unchanging. Li Xuan slowly let go and Su Qing said, “okay, I’m going back.”
Li Xuan secretly breathed out a sigh of relief, got up to send him off, and then said with a smile, “I don’t think Lei Yan is going to let go of this place. What if he brings a lot of troublesome people over here? I don’t have enough mercenaries here. What will you do if we can’t resist and those people rush in and hurt your sweetheart?”
Su Qing thought for a while, “I’ll send someone over.”
Li Xuan was immediately satisfied that he could get a group of free people, and walked to the landing pad with him.
“Oh, when I came here, I saw Xiao Yu’s helicopter on the pad. Is he here too?”
Li Xuan nodded, “yeah, why?”
“It’s not a big deal. I’m here this time with a new helicopter model,” Su Qing slowly opened his mouth, his stern face still expressionless and his tone calm, “do you think if Xiao Yu sees it, he will buy it from me… uh?”
Li Xuan covered his mouth again, his face pale, “can’t you say something good?!”
Su Qing broke away from him, “I’m being worried for your sake, I’m afraid you’ll have to spend a lot of money… mmf?!”
Li Xuan was almost crying. “Can we change the topic? Ah? Change the topic? Can you stop focusing on us?”
Su Qing broke away from him again and looked at the nearing landing pad before saying calmly, “then I’m leaving, goodbye.”
Li Xuan hurriedly nodded, “goodbye, goodbye, it’s best never to see you again.”
Su Qing glanced at him, said nothing, and turned to get on his helicopter. Li Xuan looked at the roaring aircraft, exhaled secretly and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead before turning his head and walking back. Just as he entered his small courtyard, his wife came over, “Li Xuan.”
The large animal immediately wagged his tail and started smiling, “yes, my wife, I’m here.”
Xiao Yu nodded indifferently, “I just saw Su Qing’s helicopter, I want to buy it.” And then he turned around and left.
“…”
The little assistant hurried over, “boss, boss! Boss!”
Li Xuan finally managed to take a breath and grabbed his wrist, his voice trembling, “quick… the jinx just left… You go… blow them up now… blow them to pieces!”
“…” The assistant said, “boss, calm down…”
“I can’t fucking calm down!”
“…”
Lei Yan had been waiting for news since he finished his job, but there was no news until the evening, so he ordered someone to call Su Qing to inquire about the situation, and the result was that he was not dead.
He frowned, took the phone over without thinking, and asked in a deep voice, “not dead?”
Su Qing was silent for a moment, then slowly said, “it’s rare to hear you speak in person, it seems that you’re in a bad mood. You might destroy something uncontrollably in a moment of anger.”
Lei Yan turned a deaf ear and repeated, “not dead?”
“Yes, not dead.”
Lei Yan narrowed his eyes. Time after time, that insignificant person escaped his pursuit and he was still alive even after he went out in person? And what he did at the asylum today! The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. His face darkened and he heard a click when he exerted force on his hand. He lowered his head, seeing the high-tech screen on his palm crushed.
The voice on the other end of the phone was still very calm, “is there anything else?”
“…” Lei Yan hung up the phone silently and looked up at his men, “f… f… find… a… w-w-way… to… to…” He sucked in a breath and said patiently, “u… un… undo… X-Xiao Ao’s… h-hypnosis!”
His men listened with their heads lowered, not daring to take a breath. After a moment of silence, they respectfully replied, “Yes.”
“After that,” he said in a deep voice, “g-g-go… go… go and… c…catch… catch… that p-person…” He stomped, “here!”
“Yes.”
“N…now… now… l-leave… leave!”
“Yes.”
