The Silent Strength of Arden Li Chapter 6

In the next few days, Arden Li and Shao Qun met almost every day. Shao Qun took him everywhere to eat, drink and have fun, and was even more caring, gentle and considerate to him.

It is no exaggeration to say that he has not lived such a relaxed life for at least twenty years.

There is no need to go to work, but the salary is still paid.

For the first time in my life, it felt so good to be pursued, taken seriously, and accompanied by someone. Moreover, Shao Qun was rich in knowledge and took him to see many new things, which opened his eyes in just a few days. He never knew that this city where he had stayed for several years had so many new and interesting things that he had never heard of.

Although I remind myself every day not to get carried away, I am subconsciously looking forward to seeing Shao Qun.

This feeling is so similar to when they first met when they were children.

He originally went to school every day with the hope of escaping from his gloomy family, but it gradually evolved into looking forward to spending a quiet lunch break with Shao Qun on the rooftop at noon.

Just like that time, Shao Qun seemed to have opened a door for him, led him into a new world, and then slammed the door shut, blocking out the world that made him sad, frustrated, inferior, and tired.

There are no worries or reality in this world. He is no longer discriminated against or ignored, and lives a humble and bitter life. On the contrary, he was cared for carefully and taken seriously by others. When he was with Shao Qun, even people who usually ignored him would respect him. It seems that he is such an important person, that someone appreciates him, likes him, and is willing to accompany him so that he will no longer be lonely.

These fantasies that would only appear secretly in his dreams, Shao Qun could realize for him one by one. He had never dared to pursue pleasure, but he found that he could not resist the things he had always longed for.

What's more, Shao Qun hasn't acted too much in the past few days. Maybe it's because he's too lazy to react because he has done so many times. He has become accustomed to Shao Qun's occasional small gestures of intimacy.

Seeing that the time for the banquet was getting closer and closer, more than half of the two weeks had passed, and he felt a sense of disappointment.

No matter how good the dream is, you will eventually wake up.

Today he stayed at home alone, staring at the wall in a daze.

Shao Qun has been very busy these days. Although the work for the banquet is basically ready, there are still some details that need to be added.

If it is bustling every day, then suddenly it becomes deserted. I am really not used to it.

Arden Li took a sip of water and looked through the prepared recipes to see if there was anything that could be improved.

Just as I was watching intently, the phone rang suddenly.

He quickly took the phone and looked at the caller ID on it, feeling a little disappointed.

"Hello, Manager Colby."

"Hey, Xiao Li, what are you doing?"

"at home."

"Oh, that's great. Get ready. You'll be busy today."

"Huh? Why?"

"Mr. Fletcher has arranged a dormitory for you."

"dormitory?"

"Yes, the staff dormitories were not implemented before, but they have been basically completed recently, and I have allocated a dormitory for you. Mr. Fletcher takes special care of you and has given you a pretty good one. You are very lucky. Anyway, these days If you have nothing to do, just move today."

"Huh?" Arden Li was shocked. It was a good thing to have a dormitory, which saved rent, but there was no reason to move immediately.

"Ah, what? Where is your home? Give me your address. I'll have the day off and help you move."

Manager Colby had never been so enthusiastic to him before, and even had to sacrifice his own time to help him move, which really made him feel a little surprised.

He struggled to explain: "It's too soon. I have to check out of the house now."

"Just give the landlord a call. It's almost the end of the month. Let's move there first, and then the house over there will be returned at the end of the month."

"You have to say two months in advance that you don't want to rent, otherwise the deposit will be withheld."

"Oh, the hotel will be responsible for the deposit, otherwise the rented house over there would be more expensive if it were vacant. Don't let Mr. Fletcher down, hurry up and tell me the address."

"Manager Colby, it's too sudden..."

The voice over there finally revealed a hint of impatience: "I wonder why you, a man, are so verbose? If you don't move to such a good house quickly, it will be sold out in a few days. This house is for you to live alone. , How many people in our hotel have such good treatment? Why don't you hesitate? "

Arden Li was a little afraid of offending him. Thinking about it, what he said made sense. Since the hotel paid him liquidated damages, he had nothing to worry about. As soon as I got excited, I told him the address.

Manager Colby was happy now: "There's a traffic jam right now. It will take me more than an hour to get there, so hurry up and pack your things."

Putting down the phone, Arden Li was stunned for a while.

He has never seen moving like a reminder, and Manager Colby usually ignores him, so why would he make a special trip to help him move? He was filled with doubts, and no matter how much he thought about it, he felt that something was fishy.

He quickly called the landlord because he suddenly said he wanted to move, and he couldn't explain clearly for a long time, which made the landlord angry. He gave him a lesson on the phone until he made it clear that he would pay the default payment. Jin, just give up now.

After calling the landlord, he called Shao Qun again.

I didn't expect that one day he would move and there would be people who needed to be notified, which felt really good.

Unfortunately, Shao Qun never answered, so he had to give up.

Although he doesn't speak fluently, he works very quickly. Especially in the past few years, he has moved a lot, and his things are few and easy to store. He took out the large woven bags and cardboard boxes used for moving before and started to pack them up quickly.

By the time Manager Colby arrived with the moving company, Arden Li had basically finished packing and was unpacking the wardrobe with tools.

Manager Colby stepped forward to stop him: "You don't need to bring any furniture. We have it all over there. There is nothing you can't think of."

Arden Li frowned: "But..." The furniture was all bought with money. Maybe he wouldn't live there that day, so would he have to buy it again?

"It's nothing to worry about. Don't take it with you. There's no place to put it there."

"No, if you move in the future..."

"Let's talk about it later. There's really no place to put all the junk you brought here. Do you want to fill Mr. Fletcher's rented house with stuff? If the landlord finds out, won't this cause trouble for Mr. Fletcher?"

Arden Li thought that what he said was right, but she wanted him to throw it away, but she was really reluctant to do so, so she wanted to move there first. Anyway, there were still a few days until the end of the month. When he was free tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, he could come over and take the furniture to the flea market to sell it. , or discuss with the landlord to sell to the next tenant.

In such a hurry, Arden Li put himself on the moving car all afternoon, and followed the car to the direction of the hotel.

When the moving car drove into a familiar neighborhood, Arden Li was dumbfounded.

This community was surprisingly the same one that Shao Qun brought him to a few days ago.

A bad premonition arose in his heart, and sure enough, Manager Colby led him into the previous building and pressed the same floor.

Arden Li was completely panicked and grabbed Manager Colby's sleeve to prevent him from opening the door.

"Colby, Manager Colby."

"What's wrong?"

"here..."

"Oh, isn't it nice here? How about the sea view room." Manager Colby's tone was obviously sour when he said it. Taking advantage of the dimness of the corridor, he couldn't help but glance at Arden Li. I thought to myself what ability he had. Could it be that just because he was a classmate with Mr. Ellis, he could receive such good treatment? The monthly rent for this house must be 81,000 yuan. Why should he? He also asked Mr. Fletcher to move Arden Li and his family over on his days off.

"Manager Colby, is this arranged by Mr. Fletcher?"

"Yes, Mr. Fletcher took special care of you." Manager Colby opened the door and took a breath of surprise.

Arden Li looked inside and was also very surprised.

When I came here a few days ago, it was empty, but now it is a fully decorated house, designed to be elegant and warm, as if it is waiting for the owner to move in at any time.

Manager Colby couldn't help but glance at Arden Li again, his expression full of doubts, and he opened his mouth without asking any questions.

He greeted the people from the moving company: "Come on, bring everything in."

"No, no." Arden Li hurriedly blocked the door and said to Manager Colby anxiously: "Is this really Mr. Fletcher's arrangement?"

"Tsk, Master Xiao Li, why are you working so hard? I've told you clearly enough. You've already moved everything here. Do you think you can't stop talking?"

Arden Li just couldn't stop saying that this was obviously a good thing Shao Qun did. But he wasn't sure whether Manager Colby knew. If it was Mr. Fletcher who asked him to come, what would be the use of explaining to Manager Colby?

"Manager Colby, can I make a call?"

Manager Colby waved his hand impatiently: "Then hurry up."

Arden Li hurriedly hid in the stairwell, took his mobile phone and started dialing Shao Qun's number, but after calling several times, no one answered.

When he went back, he saw that the people from the moving company had put all his luggage in the living room.

Manager Colby put the key on the shoe cabinet: "What, everything has been moved, and the key is here for you."

"Manager Colby, how can you...I can't, live here."

"You can't live here? What's wrong with you? You can't live in such a good house for free?"

Arden Li was so anxious that he was sweating, but he didn't know how to explain: "I, I can't. Manager Colby, tell Mr. Fletcher that I can't live here."

"If you want to talk about it, you can tell Mr. Fletcher yourself." Manager Colby looked at him sideways, feeling strange, "Mr. Fletcher takes care of you so much, and you still don't appreciate it. Aren't you trying to lose Mr. Fletcher's face? I told you What? Our boss has the best reputation. To tell you the truth, if you didn’t have a relationship with Mr. Ellis, would Mr. Fletcher be like this? Our boss is trying so hard to fawn over Mr. Ellis. If he can win I've made a lot of money from a piece of land, but I still have so little rent left?"

"I'm not familiar with Shao, Mr. Ellis."

Manager Colby frowned and glared at him: "I don't care about that, I only care about what Mr. Fletcher told me. Xiao Li, I think you are really confused. Mr. Fletcher is so good to you. He gives you a big house to live in, lets you earn extra money, and pays for your five insurances and one housing fund. It's all for free! No money! Why are you refusing? Let me tell you this, if you serve Mr. Ellis well, everyone will be happy. If Mr. Ellis is unhappy, all your hard work over the years will be in vain."

Arden Li was speechless.

When Manager Colby left, he was overwhelmed by the luggage on the floor and was stunned for several minutes.

What to do now? Should we move our luggage back to its original place, or should we really live there?

Come on, what has he become to Shao Qun? He couldn't help but offend his boss. He was in a dilemma whether he could live there or not. He couldn't make up his mind for a moment, so he could only sit on the floor and look at his luggage in a daze.

As the sun set in the west, the room gradually became dark, and suddenly there was a "pop" sound, and the huge living room was instantly illuminated by the overhead light.

Arden Li was startled, and when he turned around, he saw Shao Qun standing behind him at some point, looking at him with a smile.

"Cheng Xiu, why don't you even close the door? Aren't you afraid of bad guys?"

Arden Li got up from the ground and glared at him: "Shao Qun, you..."

"I know what you're going to say, don't be angry. Come on, you're tired of moving. It's already dark, and you're still sitting here in a daze. Haven't you eaten? I brought you the rice noodles you like." Shao Qun raised his hand. Put the lunch box on the table and invite him to eat.

"Shao Qun, why are you like this?"

Shao Qun shrugged calmly: "How?"

"I said you can't live here."

"It's a long story. When I had morning tea with your boss that day, I accidentally mentioned that your living environment was not very good. Your boss felt very sorry. If he hadn't been a little tight on funds, he would have arranged a dormitory for you long ago. Now that he is more relaxed, he decided to first solve the dormitory problem for some employees who have contributed to the hotel. He thinks that you have worked in the hotel for a long time and have done well, so he wants to arrange a better private room for you. , but I couldn’t choose the place right now, so I recommended the house I just bought. It was empty and I had to pay the property fee every month. It was not cost-effective, so I might as well rent it out to someone. It's better to rent it to an acquaintance." Shao Qun spread his hands innocently, "Come on, Cheng Xiu, let's eat."

The conversation made Arden Li speechless for a long time, and he stared so hard that his eyes almost fell out.

Shao Qun came up and held his hand, leading him to the dining table: "What are you doing? Let's eat."

Arden Li waved his hand away, his face flushed with anger: "You, deliberately..."

"Yes, I did it on purpose, but it's reasonable. I didn't give this house to you, your boss rented it for you to use as a staff dormitory."

"you!"

"Cheng Xiu." Shao Qun held his hand again and looked into his eyes with a smile, "Cheng Xiu, don't be angry. I know it's not good that I didn't tell you beforehand. But you reacted too fiercely before, I'm afraid You refused to move after you found out. After all, I feel sorry for you."

Arden Li was most afraid of being softened by others, and his expression wavered for a moment.

"I want to be nice to you, but you always refuse my kindness. It makes me sad to think of you living in that kind of place. It's so hot in the summer, the transportation is not convenient, and the public security is not good. Cheng Xiu, I care about you. , Worry about you, don’t you understand? "

"I, I understand, but I can't live in your house."

"Cheng Xiu." Shao Qun touched his face gently and emphasized: "I rented this house to your boss, and then your boss used it as a dormitory for you. You don't owe me anything, because you deserve it. of."

Arden Li opened his mouth to say something, but didn't know how to refute.

"Cheng Xiu, do you remember when we were children?" Shao Qun pulled him to sit down at the dining table and pushed the lunch box in front of him. "When I was a child, I always brought you delicious food. Later, I even rented a house just for you. Lunch break, do you remember?"

Arden Li thought about the old things and felt a little touched in his heart. His shoulders finally relaxed and he nodded.

"At that time, you didn't want to eat my food or live in my house, but when I was a child, I always used my fists to scare people. You were afraid of me, so you had to accept it." Shao Qun laughed twice, "I just wanted to show you Okay, if you refuse, I will be angry. It’s the same now. I just want to be nice to you, but I won’t scare you anymore. If you refuse, I will be very sad.”

Arden Li's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her heart softened mostly after what he said.

Shao Qun continued: "Is this house designed to feel like home? When I saw it, I thought of the small house we rented outside the school at that time and our beautiful memories. Don't you miss it at all?"

Arden Li hesitated: "I..."

Shao Qun took advantage of the situation and slowly approached him, K!ssing his cheek gently.

Arden Li's eyes were as bright as cold stars, as clear and innocent as she looked at him nervously and hesitantly.

How could Shao Qun let him hesitate? He pressed his lower lip into his mouth, slowly sucked and bit it, and held his hand tightly with both hands.

Arden Li's upper body was trembling, and she stiffly accepted Shao Qun's K!ss, as if she was also having a huge struggle in her heart.

Shao Qun stopped briefly, and before Arden Li tried to push him away with his hands, he had already ended the K!ss and looked at him with a smile.

Arden Li felt guilty and hurriedly lowered his head.

How could Shao Qun let go of this great opportunity so easily? He held his face and said, "Xiao Arden Li, you didn't refuse, so have I succeeded?"

"Wha, what?"

"Do you like me?"

"I, don't... don't know..."

Shao Qun raised the corners of his mouth, showed a proud smile, K!ssed his forehead hard, and laughed loudly: "Okay, I won't force you, sooner or later you have to admit it. Come on, don't starve my baby." , Hurry, eat."

"Why did you bring these things here? We have everything here, including all the kitchen utensils. Throw them away." After the two of them finished eating, Shao Qun insisted on staying to help him pack his luggage, but he didn't touch it himself. Standing on the ground commanding.

Arden Li ignored him and moved all the pots and pans he brought to the kitchen.

Even if he decided to stay temporarily, he would not dare to mess with the things here. They all look good, but what if they break and he has to pay for them?

"This pot has all the screws loosened. If it breaks during use, it won't burn anyone."

Arden Li took the pan from his hand: "It can still be used."

Shao Qun frowned as he watched him rush in and out, and in a short while he cleared away the luggage piled up in the living room. The whole house was spotless and orderly again.

When he was done, Shao Qun made a pot of tea and invited him to rest on the balcony.

There are prepared milk-white rattan chairs and a small rattan coffee table on the balcony. Looking around, there is an endless seascape in the distance. The silver moonlight shines on the sea, the moist sea breeze blows slowly, and the night is stunning, quiet and cool. In this noisy and impetuous city, it is undoubtedly a rare enjoyment to take a break from the busy schedule.

Arden Li held a small tea bowl and faced the sea, enjoying the sea breeze and squinting his eyes comfortably.

Shao Qun also squinted his eyes, but he was just looking at Arden Li's slightly raised pointed chin, the delicate upturned tip of his nose, and his long, slightly trembling eyelashes.

It was very quiet at this moment. Arden Li's beautiful profile was like a still painting, making him feel calm as he looked at it.

Arden Li seemed to notice his look and turned away uncomfortably: "This, natural wind, good, better than air conditioning."

Shao Qun smiled: "The ventilation here is good, and it won't be too hot even during the day. If you live here in the future, I won't worry about you getting heatstroke."

Arden Li nodded slightly and continued to squint at the dark sea.

Shao Qun moved his heart and moved his wicker chair towards him.

Arden Li looked at him nervously.

Shao Qun's hand went around the back of his head and gently touched his soft hair: "You have to work the day after tomorrow. You will be busy all day. Are you ready?"

Arden Li smiled and said, "This is what I do."

"That's good. But after we are done, we won't be able to see each other every day. I really can't bear to do it."

Arden Li lowered his eyes in embarrassment.

"Cheng Xiu." Shao Qun gently touched his eyes with his fingertips: "Be my person."

Arden Li stared straight at the buttons on Shao Qun's chest.

Shao Qun raised his chin: "I will be good to you and be my person, okay?"

"I..."

"Do you still want to say that you don't know? Cheng Xiu, you are an adult, don't you even know what you want? Since you don't know, why don't you want to find out? Look at me, I ask you, do you hate me?"

Arden Li shook his head blankly.

"Then are you happy staying with me?"

Arden Li paused for a while, then nodded.

"In that case, why can't you stay with me? I can give you an unexpected life."

"I, we, are not suitable."

"Why do you think so? What's inappropriate?"

Arden Li was silent. Where to start? He felt that they were not suitable anywhere.

Shao Qun is so outstanding and dazzling, he has always been like this since he was a child. And he never made any progress. He lived to be almost thirty years old and still felt at a loss about the future. He couldn't figure out why Shao Qun liked him. Because he couldn't figure it out, he was afraid that everything was just a dream. If he took a step forward, he might accidentally step out of the dream.

Shao Qun was very close to him at some point, almost holding him in his arms: "Cheng Xiu, I like you, whatever is appropriate or inappropriate. As long as you feel at ease with me, you don't have to think about these things." use."

Arden Li hesitated and said, "Let me think about it and think about it again."

Shao Qun looked at his weak expression and let out a long breath: "Okay, I'll give you some more time, but..."

A phone call suddenly intervened between the two of them. Shao Qun lowered his head and took out his cell phone, looked at the caller ID: "I'll answer the call." After saying that, he stood up and entered the bedroom, closing the door behind him.

Arden Li was still stunned on the spot, as if he hadn't recovered from the warm atmosphere just now.

"Hey, Awen."

"Yes, I haven't been back recently. How is my godmother?"

"What, you all come? Okay, Shenzhen's service industry is so developed, let's have a nice get-together as brothers, hehe."

"Fcuk, aren't you trying to get at me? Arden Li asked you all to come over and take a look. You all must be so idle that it hurts!"

"Well, I'm chasing him. I'm with him now."

"Fcuk, I don't want to, I'm not that into it."

"Tonight? Pull him down. We are civilized people, and we can really R@p3 him. He wants to bite me if I touch him now."

"Nonsense, of course it's no problem. If I can't deal with a little //mother//, should I still be called Shao Qun?"

"Don't mention it. I don't want to mention how gentlemanly I am in front of him. I'm warning you, you can come, but don't tear me down."

"Okay, okay, be polite to him. Don't fart randomly. If you mess with me, I'll slap you one by one."

"Okay, hang up, see you the day after tomorrow."

When Shao Qun went out, he saw Arden Li still leaning in his chair, with his head leaning against the iron railing of the balcony.

He walked over and took a look and found that he had his eyes closed and was breathing evenly, as if he was asleep.

Arden Li's brows were a bit tired, and his sleeping face showed innocence and unpreparedness. Shao Qun smiled unconsciously and stepped forward to hug him up.

Arden Li woke up as soon as he moved. When he opened his eyes and saw that he was hanging in the air, he was startled.

"Shao Qun, I've been squinting for a while. Let me go and come down."

Shao Qun let go as if to scare him, and chuckled: "Don't move around. If you move around again, I'll throw it out from the balcony."

Arden Li chuckled twice: "How dare you kill someone."

Shao Qun lowered his head and K!ssed his hairline: "It's time to take your wife into the bridal chamber."

Arden Li's face turned red with embarrassment: "I'll go by myself."

"What's the matter? You can't wait. Do you think it's too slow for me to hold you?"

"no..."

Shao Qun hugged him and suddenly ran a few steps, which scared Arden Li and quickly grabbed his arm.

After rushing into the bedroom, Shao Qun threw Arden Li onto the double bed, and then followed him with his whole body.

Arden Li let out a low cry. When he was thrown to pieces, there was another person's weight on his body, and he suddenly panicked.

The relationship between him and Shao Qun is that Shao Qun keeps approaching and he keeps retreating. Shao Qun's initiative tempted him, but also frightened him. When he couldn't make up his mind, he could only keep retreating, but Shao Qun slowly forced him into a dead end, and he almost had no place to retreat. There are only two ways in front of you, either push Shao Qun away and leave alone, or you can only...

Shao Qun hissed and said with a smile: "Why are you nervous? I can still dominate//strengthen//draw the bow."

"Then what do you want to do?"

"I want to hug you." Shao Qun took Arden Li into his arms, buried his head in his neck, and muttered, "I want to hug you like I did when I was a child."

Arden Li's rapid breathing gradually calmed down, and his heart felt soft.

Shao Qun's gentle K!sses lingered on his neck and cheeks, and finally rested on his lips, pecking him tentatively.

The moonlight outside the window is sultry, the room is dark, and the surroundings are so quiet that you can hear a pin drop.

Arden Li heard Shao Qun's heartbeat, one after another, very fast, very powerful, and reassuring.

The heartbeat couldn't be fake, he thought.

People always say that when you like someone, your heart beats faster. He felt that his heart was about to jump out of his throat. He could feel that Shao Qun's heart was beating so fast. Does this mean...

His body slowly relaxed and he accepted Shao Qun's K!ss with trembling.

Shao Qun didn't stay long that day. He hugged him and talked for a while before leaving, which made him feel relieved.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the banquet.

Arden Li got up at four o'clock in the morning. Shao Qun couldn't get up that early, so he sent a driver to take him to Shenzhen Bay, where he planned to sail to Hong Kong.

It was already after six o'clock when he arrived at Shenzhen Bay, and it was already dawn.

The car stopped at a yacht pier, and someone came down to pick him up and board the boat. In addition to him, some staff members also arrived one after another.

Dozens of snow-white yachts were parked neatly at the pier in front of them, which looked very impressive at first glance.

The person in charge took them for a walk along the pier. Parked in front of them was a three-story luxury yacht with a length of more than thirty meters. Arden Li was stunned by the white and elegant big guy in front of him.

The person in charge introduced with a bit of pride: "This yacht can accommodate fifty or sixty people, and there are few boats in China that can accommodate so many people."

People around him sighed.

Arden Li followed them and boarded the ship.

Shao Qun told him that the guests were all distinguished guests, there were not many people, but everything should be exquisite.

To prepare dishes for more than 40 people, to make them perfect, you have to start working from early in the morning. They didn't have time to visit the yacht, so they quickly entered the kitchen and started preparing.

Time flies when I get busy, and it’s afternoon in a blink of an eye. The yacht also didn't know when it sailed out of the dock.

Except for taking a break at noon for a meal, he never rested at all. He finally finished preparing everything that needed to be prepared, and started cooking when the time came. Only then did Arden Li go to the deck to take a breather.

After standing for a while, someone came over and called him: "Master Li, are you done? When you are done, go to the second floor. The boss is waiting for you."

"okay."

Arden Li went upstairs and saw Shao Qun standing in the shade of the cabin, leaning on the railing to blow the wind.

"Shao Qun."

Shao Qun turned to see him and smiled: "Cheng Xiu, come here."

Arden Li walked over, and as soon as he got close to him, Shao Qun naturally took him into his arms, bowed his body, and leaned on the railing with his elbows, trapping him between his body and the railing.

Arden Li felt a little uncomfortable, looked around, and wanted to push him away.

"It's okay, there's no one there, so what if there are people, this boat is my private property." Shao Qun grinned ambiguously, "You are my private property too."

Arden Li turned away embarrassedly. He had some doubts in his heart. Shao Qun seemed to naturally feel that the two of them should get along like this, but were they really in love now? Why did he feel that it hadn't reached this level yet? Shao Qun acted so naturally that he even doubted whether he had already established a relationship with Shao Qun that night.

But then again, he had already K!ssed and hugged Shao Qun. If he didn't admit it, it wouldn't be a big deal. He would be being pretentious.

Arden Li hesitated, but even though he felt uncomfortable, he quietly huddled in Shao Qun's arms and didn't move.

Shao Qun was very happy to see his reaction. He put his lips to his ear and talked intimately.

"Cheng Xiu, are you tired? I just got on the boat and you got up early in the morning."

"You're not tired, you should prepare early."

"I'm done today. Let's take a good rest for a few days."

"The day after tomorrow, go to work."

"I make the decision. If you rest for a few more days, your boss will not deny you this face."

Arden Li nodded, thinking that it would be a good thing to have a few more days off. The key was to be paid, and he also wanted to be lazy.

"Cheng Xiu, is this yacht beautiful?"

"very beautiful."

"I bought it from a poor Indian during the financial crisis. Hey, I bargained the price down so hard that the Indian almost cried."

Arden Li smiled accordingly.

"But a yacht is nothing. I will buy a cruise ship when I make some more money." Shao Qun is only 26 this year. He is a successful young man. He has been prosperous since the day he was born until now. He has always been mature and sophisticated in dealing with outsiders. But facing his fresh, warm, and never-experienced little lover, he inevitably wanted to show off, and the arrogance in his words was not concealed at all.

Arden Li smiled and nodded after hearing this, feeling that Shao Qun was really powerful, and he couldn't help but wonder how such a powerful person like Shao Qun could like him.

Shao Qun looked at Arden Li with admiration in his eyes, not to mention the feeling of comfort in his body, which made him happier than flattering him.

Shao Qun felt itchy in his heart and pulled Arden Li toward the inner cabin: "Come on, come in and sit for a while. It's windy outside, so we can't blow for too long."

The two of them entered a cabin, which was a rather luxuriously furnished room. Although it was not large in size, it still had a lot of things.

As soon as he entered the cabin, Shao Qun slammed the door shut, then pressed Arden Li against the wall and eagerly lowered his head to cover his lips.

Arden Li was frightened, her eyes widened as he K!ssed her.

Shao Qun clamped his waist close to his abdomen, held the back of his head with his other hand, and sucked his lips as if he wanted to swallow him. He kept pressing down, K!ssing her harder and harder, and his dexterous tongue took advantage of the opportunity, tumbling inside Arden Li's mouth, licking his gums, and finally chasing and entangled with his slippery tongue.

Arden Li's brain was deprived of oxygen by this fierce K!ss, and his limbs were limp. His whole body was almost hanging on Shao Qun, and transparent fluid slowly flowed down the corners of his mouth.

He felt that he was about to suffocate, so he used all his strength to push against Shao Qun's chest.

Shao Qun was so selfless in the K!ss that he was completely addicted to it. It wasn't until Arden Li pushed him that he came to his senses and let go.

The two were breathing heavily, nose to nose, staring at each other.

After Shao Qun waited for him to breathe a little easier, he leaned over and K!ssed him again. This time, he was no longer so impatient, and his passion was yet gentle. He slowly aroused Arden Li's passion and desire, and quietly put a hand into him. The clothes were caressing his smooth and slender waist erotically.

Arden Li was immersed in the warm atmosphere and was unaware of it. Although he passively accepted Shao Qun's K!ss and didn't know how to respond, the sweet feeling made him lose his way.

It wasn't until Shao Qun's palm was rubbing his chest that he suddenly woke up, curled up like a frightened rabbit, and looked at Shao Qun with wide eyes.

Shao Qun patiently comforted him: "Don't be afraid, Cheng Xiu. We are all men. Don't you need it? Leave it to me, okay?" As he said that, he wanted to take off his clothes.

Arden Li was still curled up, too stiff to stretch out: "Shao... Qun, I'm scared."

If it wasn't in front of him, Shao Qun would really roll his eyes out. He never dreamed that there would be a man in bed, hunched over like a girl, telling him that he was "scared".

He didn't understand that Arden Li was really afraid.

He didn't know that at this moment, his eyes were full of naked desire, as fierce and impatient as a wild beast, eager to swallow the prey in one bite.

His lower body has become erect, no wonder he can no longer pretend to be a gentleman. He followed Arden Li for more than a month, and now he finally got it. Can he not wait to taste the fruits of victory? Isn't this what he put there to pretend to be a gentleman? Seeing the fresh meat in front of you, no one can control it.

But looking at Arden Li's tearful eyes, he knew there was no chance this time.

He was so upset that he wanted to lift the table, but he tried his best to endure it.

Patting Arden Li's face, he pulled him up, held him in his arms and coaxed softly: "Okay, don't be afraid, I won't force you if you don't want to, and I will respect you." He said while feeling sick to his stomach . In his experience, or in any man's experience, this should most likely be said to a woman. Although he didn't regard Arden Li as a man in his heart, he couldn't change the fact that he was indeed carrying a child in his arms. He felt a little uncomfortable saying these words to a man.

The more awkward it was, the more uncomfortable he looked at Arden Li.

Young Master Shao has never experienced this feeling of having to withdraw his troops when the arrow is on the string. This is the first time today and it feels terrible. He couldn't feel comfortable and had to comfort the people who made him feel uncomfortable, which put a fire in his heart.

The two finally broke up on bad terms.

Arden Li made an excuse to work and ran back to the kitchen.

Shao Qun was angry alone in his bedroom, running around with all kinds of evil ideas in his head.

Soon the sun goes down and the kitchen is at its busiest.

The kitchen was not big, but there were more than ten people working at the same time. It was so busy that Arden Li was so hot that he was sweating profusely. His white chef clothes were soaked with sweat and stuck to his back.

Fortunately, the preparations were well done and everything went smoothly. Every time someone opened the door to come in or out, he could hear the music leaking in. He knew that it was very lively outside without looking.

After all the work was finished, Arden Li took off his hat and ran to the deck to blow in the wind for a while.

After not standing for long, the person in charge came and called him: "Master Xiao Li, the boss is waiting for you on the second floor. You go ahead."

Arden Li nodded, couldn't help but think of the embarrassment in the afternoon, and went up.

Shao Qun was wearing a round-necked milky-white thin cashmere sweater and dark linen casual pants. The width of the collar was just enough to reveal his slender neck and beautiful collarbones. He was tall, had long legs, and had a strong physique. His face was even more handsome. He looks like a calm and elegant young man. At this time, he had one hand in his pocket and the other hand holding a goblet. When he saw Arden Li coming up, he smiled and raised the glass to him.

Arden Li felt his face getting hot. He thinks Shao Qun is more beautiful than the stars on TV, and looks like a model no matter what clothes he wears.

He remembered that when he was a child, he often looked at Shao Qun's face in a daze. He was not interested in which girl the male classmates discussed was pretty and cute, but every time the female classmates discussed how handsome Shao Qun was, he would prick up his ears and listen. He was indeed born gay. At that time, no one wronged him.

Shao Qun smiled and said, "Are you done? Thank you for your hard work. You look very tired."

Arden Li plucked his hair, which was deformed by the chef's hat: "It's okay."

Shao Qun came closer to him and wrinkled his nose, "You smell like oil smoke. Go take a shower quickly. I've prepared clothes for you."

"Ah? What for?"

"I'll take you to the PARTY."

Arden Li looked at him in surprise: "Me? I can't..."

"Don't be nervous. It's not a formal gathering, it's just an ordinary social event. What are you afraid of?"

Arden Li waved his hands repeatedly: "No, I can't speak."

No matter how Arden Li tried to resist, Shao Qun insisted on letting him participate, pushing and coaxing him into the bathroom: "I'll come find you in twenty minutes, hurry up and wash up."

Arden Li had no choice but to take a quick shower and then change into the clothes on the bed.

When Shao Qun came in, Arden Li was holding a wall-mounted hair dryer with wet hair and looking around, but couldn't find the switch.

Shao Qun laughed twice: "The switch is on the wall." He pressed the switch for him, took the hair dryer from his hand, and stood behind him to help him blow his hair.

It is true that people depend on their clothes.

Arden Li was wearing a blue-collar polo shirt with beige pink. The soft color made him look particularly fair and delicate, and he immediately felt a lot more energetic.

Arden Li dodged Shao Qun's burning gaze in the mirror with some embarrassment, not knowing where to put his eyes.

Putting down the hair dryer, Shao Qun applied hair wax and held his hair, smiling ambiguously: "My dear, you look so good dressed like this. I'm not even willing to take you out."

Arden Li blushed slightly and smiled shyly.

This shy and timid smile was more provocative than anything else. Shao Qun felt like his body was getting hot. He lowered his head and licked Arden Li's earlobe. He still stared at the mirror and met Arden Li's eyes.

Arden Li was so shy that she turned her head away and wanted to hide.

Shao Qun hugged him from behind and licked his tongue carefully along the outline of his ears.

"itch..."

Shao Qun chuckled twice in his ear, K!ssed his cheek, and then let him go.

"Come on, let's go out. There will be a surprise later."

"What surprise?"

Shao Qun blinked: "You'll know in a moment."

Arden Li followed him with some anxiety. He listened to people chatting in the kitchen today, and most of them were young upstarts from the Pearl River Delta and Hong Kong's political and business circles. All of them were very impressive.

Shao Qun took him down to the first floor, where a wave of heat mixed with loud music hit his face.

Arden Li looked at the crowds of people in the hall and was stunned.

He originally thought that since they were all great people, they should all be decent, but he didn't want it to be such a chaotic scene.

Shao Qun glanced at him and said in his ear: "This party is completely closed. All the people here are acquaintances. Everyone is relaxed, so you should also be relaxed and don't be nervous."

Arden Li pointed to the two large tables in the middle where many people were gathered around: "What are they doing?"

"Have fun." Shao Qun led him closer. Only then did Arden Li see clearly that it was an American turret table. There were several pretty girls standing around the table, holding trays and charmingly serving food to the guests. Wine, "This..." Arden Li whispered, "Gamble?"

Shao Qun chuckled twice: "You still know this thing, it's not bad. Don't worry, the ship has sailed out to the high seas, how can we have fun without this."

He looked at the increasingly crazy person in front of him with satisfaction. These people are usually sanctimonious, and all of them can show off, but today, under the stimulation of alcohol, few of them could still pretend, and all of them showed their true colors. What he wants is this effect. Tomorrow they will wake up and regret today's indulgence, but it will invisibly bring them closer, allowing him to prosper in this land in the future.

Arden Li didn't understand Shao Qun's world, so he couldn't say much. But this all shows how big the gap is between them.

Several people saw Shao Qun and came over to greet him. Shao Qun responded to them one by one. When they asked about Arden Li next to him, Shao Qun changed his usual friendly attitude with him and just said lightly: "Oh, this is my friend." But he didn't mean to introduce him at all.

Seeing this posture, they naturally understood that Arden Li was not an important player, but Arden Li didn't think anything was wrong and just said hello politely.

A few people were chatting when a loud shout suddenly came from behind them: "Shao Qun."

Shao Qun turned his head along with Arden Li and saw three men coming down the stairs. They were all quite outstanding in terms of clothing and appearance.

Shao Qun greeted them with a smile: "I was looking for you, where did you go?"

Arden Li's face turned pale instantly.

"Oh, this is really the Arden Li."

The leader came over and hooked Shao Qun's shoulders, bent down and turned his face towards Arden Li, looking at him playfully: "Hey, do you still remember me?"

He can remember Shao Qun, and he will naturally not forget these three people. The person in front of me is Zhou Li, a young gangster who dyed his hair red when he was a child and always wore clothes with two buttons open. Behind him is Vincent Li, who has metal-framed eyes and looks like a young elite. Next to him is Ke Yisheng, who looks bored.

He didn't expect to see them here. He remembered that Shao Qun clearly said that if he didn't want to see them, he wouldn't see them.

Arden Li looked at Shao Qun with a pale face.

Shao Qun spread his hands and said apologetically: "Cheng Xiu, if they insist on coming, I can't control their legs." He patted Zhou Li on the head, "Don't scare him."

"Ah, Shao Qun, you've started to protect your shortcomings so quickly. I just wanted to get closer and talk to you to see how distressed you are."

Li Wenxun crossed his arms and smiled politely: "Arden Li, we haven't seen each other for a long time, more than ten years. Hey, in a blink of an eye, we have all gone away for three years. You and Shao Qun are really destined to meet again by chance. When he told us, we were all surprised."

Arden Li was surrounded by several people and felt more and more invisible pressure.

Even after more than ten years, he is still so weak and useless, and they are still condescending. He felt an indescribable disgust and fear towards these people, just like before.

He didn't even want to say a word to them now, he just wanted to turn around and run away.

Shao Qun seemed to be completely unaware of his frightened state, and instead gave him a glass of wine: "Cheng Xiu, today we are alumni getting together in a different place. It's rare. No matter what, we have to have a drink."

Li Wenxun raised the wine glass to his eyes sincerely: "Arden Li, we were ignorant when we were children. Now that I think about it, it's really childish and ridiculous. I see that you look uncomfortable. If you are still angry about what happened when we were children, then I Just punish yourself with a cup of apology on behalf of my brothers, okay?"

He deliberately emphasized "when I was young" repeatedly, and after finishing speaking, he drank all the wine in the glass without waiting for Arden Li's reaction.

Zhou Li laughed loudly: "Ah Wen, that's interesting. Okay, I'll drink too. Speaking of which, I even beat you at that time. Oh, it's been so long, who still remembers it. Anyway, it was all in my childhood." , Now that we meet, it’s fate, I’ll drink this cup, and Xiao Sheng comes, and you can drink it too.”

Arden Li watched them drink up all the wine in their glasses and was at a loss for a moment.

From their point of view, it was just a childish and ridiculous "childhood" thing, but it could be regarded as ruining his future.

If it weren't for them, he wouldn't have encountered such a nasty thing on his last night at school. If he had come home early, his mother might have been sent to the hospital in time and wouldn't have been paralyzed. And because of their presence, even if the school leaders went there many times, His family advised him to continue studying, but he did not have the courage to go back to school.

A person's destiny is determined by God. Sometimes he thinks about it and feels that these are all destined and he can't escape. Shao Qun and this group of people only played a role in fueling the flames, but even if they fueled the flames, he still can't completely let go.

At least if he couldn't see these people, he wouldn't be able to remember them, but when he saw them, he really couldn't stop himself from hating them, even if they were just "childhood" things.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Shao Qun touched his glass lightly with his wine glass and called his attention back: "Cheng Xiu, give them some face, they will have to apologize to you."

Arden Li glanced at Shao Qun and felt a little cold. He lowered his eyes and took a sip of wine.

Shao Qun smiled and said: "Okay, Cheng Xiu, you have a good drinker, haha."

Vincent Li pursed his lips and smiled, then took another glass of wine: "Here, let me toast you again. I heard that you are responsible for preparing today's main meal. Your skills are incredible. The world is huge, and eating is the biggest. It's amazing!" Come and drink."

Arden Li didn't know how to deal with it and was unwilling to talk to them, so he had no choice but to drink.

Li Wenxun saw Arden Li's avoidance by drinking, and winked proudly at Shao Qun.

Seeing that the wine in his glass was getting empty, Shao Qun quickly gave him a new glass, and several people gathered around him and took turns toasting.

Arden Li was in a bad mood today, and he was surrounded by a few people who were deeply afraid of him when he was young. He never drank alcohol, but today he drank one drink after another, as if he could escape the scene temporarily.

He also felt that the wine tasted like a drink and he shouldn't get drunk easily.

He didn't know that what Shao Qun gave him was Sprite mixed with Tequila, and the lemon masked the strong smell of the wine. It tasted sweet and slightly pungent. Even Arden Li, who didn't know how to drink, didn't find it difficult to drink. But he didn't know that this wine was a bit like a drink, with a temperature of 43 degrees, and it was okay to drink at first, but it had great staying power.

Before Shao Qun took advantage of the stamina of the wine, he persuaded and coaxed him to drink more than two drinks. A person who has never drank alcohol all year round and has no alcohol tolerance at all is drunk with a high concentration of Tequila. He drinks it quickly and without any precautions. By the time Arden Li feels dizzy and unable to stand still, she is already almost drunk.

Shao Qun helped him into the cabin in a daze.

Shao Qun looked at Arden Li who was so drunk that he couldn't even open his eyes on the bed, and chuckled.

To him, Arden Li should be regarded as a novel snack that he wanted to eat together when he was a child but did not dare to eat it.

This snack had an alluring fragrance at that time, but he was young, timid, ignorant, and didn't dare to move his mouth except to raise his nose to smell it. As a result, it made him think about it in vain for several years. Later, when I grew up, I wanted to eat but couldn't find it. It was a pity.

I don't want him to be lucky and bump into him by chance again. Although this piece of dim sum has long passed its shelf life and is much discounted compared to when it was green and tender, the appearance is still good and it still makes him excited and appetizing.

This time, there was no reason for him to lose something he had coveted for a long time but dared not touch when he was a child. He had to eat it when he was full to make up for the regrets of his youth.

Shao Qun knelt on the bed and took off Arden Li's clothes.

The effect of alcohol on Arden Li's body was considerable. At this time, he was red from the top of his head to the tips of his toes. His fair skin was lightly pink, looking delicate, soft and shiny. He has very little hair on his body, and his whole body is like a piece of jade. He is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes away.

A wave of heat immediately arose in Shao's group, and the desire was so urgent that it almost burst out of his throat.

He leaned over and pressed Arden Li under him, then lowered his head and K!ssed him hard on the lips.

Arden Li's eyes were barely open just a slit, and his pupils were filled with confused waves. He was looking at the ceiling without focus, and had no reaction at all to the surging K!ss.

Shao Qun's hands stroked his smooth skin inch by inch, lighting his body on fire.

Arden Li was like a fish thrown on the shore, twisting and turning uncomfortably under him, with low moans coming out of his throat from time to time...
