Chapter 3 – Tang Zhou likes males

In his dream, he labored as Fu Shen’s assistant for a time frame. Via this, Tang Zhou is now aware of cleansing the home.

After tidying the espresso desk and opening the window for air flow, he took a snug bathtub.

Since he made up his thoughts to interrupt free from the shackles of the Tang household, Tang Zhou’s complete thoughts was a lot broader.

Whether or not in desires or in actuality, he by no means had any ambition to take over the property of the Tang household. He was merely upset by the indifference and even malice from his family members.

Nonetheless, his good temper disappeared when he heard his cellphone ring.

He gazed on the caller ID with chilly eyes. He did not reply the decision and waited for greater than ten seconds earlier than it stopped. Nonetheless, after the ringing ended, it began to hum once more not lengthy after.

Tang Zhou pressed the button to reply and turned on the hands-free. His distinguished eyebrows have been barely chilly.

“Tang Zhou, there’s a banquet within the night. You go together with me.”

The one who spoke was Tang Zhen, his organic father.

A father who solely communicates along with his son by title and surname is in itself a sort of indifference and alienation.

Tang Zhou opened his pocket book and mentioned in an absent-minded tone, “No, I do not like that form of event.”

Tang Zhen mentioned: “It was your grandfather’s order. The granddaughter of your Grandfather Du will have fun her 18th birthday immediately. You come over.”

It is a blind date in disguise.

Tang Zhou rigorously analyzed the inventory market immediately and coughed evenly: “I’ve a chilly, and I am not feeling effectively.”

If he remembered appropriately, this Miss Du in his dream was standing in the identical boat as his illegitimate brother. Whether or not the dream was true or not, he didn’t wish to wade on this muddy water.[1]

His voice was barely hoarse. He did not know whether or not Tang Zhen believed his phrases however his father did not pressure him anymore.

It did not take lengthy for an additional name to return in. It was his grandfather.

When dealing with Tang Zhen, he did not really feel the slightest fluctuation in his coronary heart. Nonetheless, within the face of his grandfather who taught him since childhood, Tang Zhou could not relax.

For greater than twenty years, in Tang Zhou’s reminiscence, Outdated Father Tang was counted as his solely heat. But in his dream, his grandfather, whom he had at all times revered and revered, gave him a deadly blow, revealing a hideous aspect he had by no means seen earlier than.

“A Zhou, I heard your father say that you’re sick, have you ever seen a physician? I am going to ask Dr. Li to go over there.”

The previous man’s variety voice did not make Tang Zhou really feel heat, quite the opposite, his again went chilly.

He was very confused. If the previous man’s love was honest, or merely the worth he might convey for the Tang household.

“No, it is solely a minor sickness. I will be fantastic after I sleep.” Tang Zhou evenly chuckled, “Quite the opposite, it is you who at all times coughed a number of days in the past. You need to take note of your well being.”

Outdated Father Tang laughed, “It is just a bit cough. I am in good well being. I went to the countryside to do farm work for a number of years and did no worse than others. Now life is getting higher and higher. I am afraid that the well being of your younger individuals might not be nearly as good as our previous individuals.”

He turned to the subject, “Nonetheless, in case your well being shouldn’t be an enormous deal, you must go to the occasion within the night. Grandfather Du has been speaking to me about you. Even when you do not like his granddaughter, go and see him.”

It is all in regards to the earlier persuasion. If Tang Zhou refuses once more, it is easy to arouse suspicion.

“Okay, I will be there tonight.”

Tang Zhou is now a fourth 12 months pupil at Jiangcheng College, and he has been residing in a home close to the college since he enrolled in his freshman 12 months.

Jiangcheng could be very huge. It is about an hour and a half drive from the venue. The banquet started at six o’clock within the night. Tang Zhou did not have sufficient time. He considerably sorted out his issues directly, he wore formal apparel and drove to the banquet place.

The Du household has a bit bit of recognition in Jiangcheng. Many celebrities got here to Miss Du’s celebration. There are lots of people exterior the banquet corridor. A lot of them are distinguished figures of their circle and a few have been acquainted to Tang Zhou, however he can not bear in mind their names.

Among the many youthful era, Tang Zhou’s popularity is taken into account excellent. Because the successor of the Tang household, he turned the main focus of the gang as quickly as he received out of his automotive.

Along with his noble and good-looking look, tall and straight determine, together with his enviable household background. He’s a winner in life within the eyes of males, and within the eyes of girls, he’s a younger man from a rich household with gold and glowing gentle.

The waiter instantly greeted him with a respectful smile, “Mr. Tang, please.”

Tang Zhou handed the automotive key to him. His voice was chilly however in some way mild, “Thanks in your onerous work.”

The waiter smiled and bowed. He watched as Tang Zhou’s again disappeared on the entrance of the banquet corridor, then he thought: Mr. Tang shouldn’t be as boastful and detached because the rumors mentioned.

After getting into the banquet corridor, a number of individuals took the initiative to greet him. Tang Zhou responded one after the other. He seemed across the corridor and noticed Tang Zhen speaking with a number of uncles, each youthful and older than him.

Tang Zhou by no means preferred this type of event and sat down in an not noticeable nook. He wished to have a peaceable time, nevertheless, an sudden visitor arrived.

Tang Zhen held his glass of wine and seemed down on him.

“Did not you reject coming right here?”

Tang Zhou’s look inherited one of the best genes of his mother and father. As his father, Tang Zhen’s look is of course not unhealthy. A person of almost fifty seems solely in his early forties due to correct upkeep.

It is simply that the aura of the particular person with a big sum of money can intimidate others. Nonetheless, it does not work in any respect in entrance of Tang Zhou.

Tang Zhou leaned on the couch and checked out him lazily, “Grandpa requested me to return.”

These eyes have been calm and detached. He did not even take note of him in any respect. This is among the explanation why Tang Zhen does not like Tang Zhou.

He couldn’t discover a bit sense of accomplishment and satisfaction as a father in Tang Zhou. The kid appeared to be born to restrain him.

A toddler who oppresses his father is doomed to lack his father’s love.

Tang Zhen’s eyes flickered in disgust, “The granddaughter of your Grandfather Du is gorgeous and well-educated. You do it your self.”

Tang Zhou’s eyes crammed with a smile, making individuals chill for no cause, “She is Tang Tianyang’s particular person. I haven’t got the interest of sporting a inexperienced hat.”[2]

Tang Tianyang is Tang Zhou’s illegitimate brother. He’s presently a freshman at Jiangcheng College.

“What are you babbling about!” Tang Zhen glared at him, “You’re a member of the Tang household. Take note of your phrases exterior and do not let individuals mock us.”

Tang Zhou suppressed his smile, and hid the blade in his phrases, “It is not me who will make the Tang household topic to ridicule.”

“You-“

Tang Zhen was too indignant to talk. He shrugged it off and walked away.

As quickly as he left, Tang Zhou’s cellphone rang. It was Lu Ye.

“Tang Zhou, did you go to the Du household banquet?”

“Hmm.” Tang Zhou casually rested one among his fingers on the armrest of the couch, “Why did not you and Qiao Yuan attend?”

“I am tied up with one thing. I can not go. Xiaoyuan is accompanying me.” Lu Ye modified the subject, “I heard you and Miss Du…”

“No.” Tang Zhou gazed randomly on the individuals who got here and went within the banquet corridor. His eyes abruptly paused, and mentioned to Lu Ye, “One thing’s up, let’s speak once more later.”

He hung up the cellphone and received up. He walked after the acquainted determine he noticed some time in the past.

The person in entrance of him was tall, with lengthy legs and walked in huge strides. Tang Zhou nearly did not sustain and needed to velocity up his steps.

His again disappeared across the nook. Tang Zhou swept a look on the signal. This aspect was the rest room. He did not suppose a lot and leaned over instantly.

Simply after he become a nook, a hand out of the blue struck him and shortly grabbed his throat. He pressed him towards the wall.

The person was so robust that Tang Zhou frowned in ache, “Let go!”

“It is you.” The assailant’s tone was low, displaying a touch of shock.

He loosened his hand, his tall determine lined your complete stature of Tang Zhou and half hid the lights of the hall. Beneath the interweaving of sunshine and shadow, his distinct angular face added a little bit of allure.

Tang Zhou’s pores and skin could be very white, and he has the delicateness raised within the nest of wealth. The blow simply now left a shallow mark on his white neck, as if he suffered an abuse.

Fu Shen averted his gaze, as if he felt sorry.

Tang Zhou stretched out his hand and rubbed his neck. He stared at him with a chilly glint in his eyes, “Why are you right here?”

Fu Shen stepped again a bit. Tang Zhou was uncovered to the sunshine, and the traces on his neck have been extra apparent.

He knew he was within the incorrect, “Sorry, I believed somebody was following me.”

He additionally pointed to the waiter’s uniform on his physique, “I work right here to generate income.”

Tang Zhou: “…”

The waiters listed below are professionally skilled. Fu Shen can combine in, he did not know what technique he used.

Nonetheless, it has nothing to do with him.

“It appears ineffective to apologize.” Tang Zhou went into the toilet and pointed to the pink mark on his neck within the mirror, “I can not return like this.”

Fu Shen stood behind him, and his younger good-looking face confirmed apparent annoyance: “I am going to go discover one thing to cowl up the blemish.”

Tang Zhou checked out him within the mirror, “No want.”

A collection of footsteps sounded exterior the toilet, and Tang Zhou’s coronary heart moved at will.

He reached out and pushed Fu Shen towards the wall. His lengthy, barely cool hand cupped his decrease jaw and his different hand propped up on the aspect of his ear. His gentle brown eyes slowly took benefit of the space and got here nearer.

“Cooperate with me.”

A tender breath was sprayed on his face, and Fu Shen appeared to scent a perfume like bamboo leaves.

They have been too shut.

The door of the toilet was pushed open. Tang Zhou firmly leaned near Fu Shen’s lips. As if he was actually kissing him.

Fu Shen subconsciously held his breath. He does not know what Tang Zhou’s intention is, however he does not care in regards to the different particular person’s opinion. As well as, he simply offended Tang Zhou, so he did not have the thoughts to withstand.

Being so near him, he might even see the tiny hairs on Tang Zhou’s cheek.

As quickly because the visitor entered, he noticed two males who gave the impression to be kissing, and earlier than he had time to react, he noticed one among them elevate his head and look over coldly.

He was shocked. Is not this Tang Zhou!

Tang Zhou truly likes males! He is in a relationship with a waiter! Fuck, fuck, fuck!

Ten thousand grass and dirt horses[3] galloped previous within the customer’s coronary heart. He even forgot to go to the bathroom and hurriedly mentioned: “You proceed! You proceed!”

The door was additionally thoughtfully closed after exiting.

He lined his pounding coronary heart, as if his toes had wings, and returned to the banquet corridor at a chaotic tempo. He instantly shared the gossip “quietly” when he noticed his associates.

As for whether or not he will likely be retaliated towards by Tang Zhou afterwards, he does not care.

Gossip is the way in which to go.

After the person left, Tang Zhou instantly moved away from Fu Shen.

Fu Shen calmly straightened his collar and requested: “Did you do that on function simply to not get matched?”

“It is none of your corporation.”

Fu Shen’s smiling expression is inferior to proper in entrance of his eyes, “You borrowed my physique, in fact, it has one thing to do with me.”

Tang Zhou barely raised his eyebrows, “I am going to pay your rental price.”

“Senior, if you wish to lease for a very long time, I do not thoughts in any respect.” Fu Shen paused, “However possibly we are able to speak in regards to the mission funding. They wish to invite you to a meal. Would you want to hitch us?”

Tang Zhou was shocked and seemed askance at him by way of the mirror.

The person wore close-fitting work garments, white shirt and a black bow tie. His slim waistcoat outlines the right form of his large shoulders and slender waist. His legs are lengthy and straight.

Even when Tang Zhou shouldn’t be good at recognizing magnificence, he needed to admit that Fu Shen’s look was sufficient to let one’s creativeness run wild.

What he did simply now is not only to keep away from being dated. Nonetheless, what he desires to verify is that if the information got here out that “he likes males”. Will his grandfather instantly deny all his earlier efforts and the worth of his existence similar to in his desires.

If he desires to be sincere about the truth that “he likes males”, he has to confess that Fu Shen is certainly probably the most appropriate companion.

Though the tactic is melodramatic, it’s helpful.

What’s extra, he was ready for Fu Shen to ask him to barter once more, and now he has no cause to refuse.

“Sure.”
