Xu Ye never asked about the cause and result of the accident. He vaguely felt that those people were coming for him, but he didn't know what he had done to provoke those people to kill them.
His master has been very busy during this time, but he is often at home with him, and sometimes even meetings are moved to the home. Xu Ye had an intuition that the things Chu Yu was dealing with were related to the accident, and things were far more complicated and trickier than he imagined. So he was not in a hurry to find out the truth, because he knew that Chu Yu would definitely give him an answer.
In addition to reading those boring economic and legal books, Xu Ye also learned cooking with Uncle Ye. Yesterday, I accidentally broke the celadon bowl that Chu Yu had returned from bidding. Uncle Ye and the cook girl were so frightened that their faces turned green. The three of them studied for a long time and could not stick it together. In the end, Xu Ye took the initiative to confess and was sentenced to kneel for an hour.
On Thursday morning, he was learning to bake cookies by following the steps on his computer when the doorbell rang. It was Chu Xuan, and there were more than a dozen well-trained attendants in black standing neatly outside the door.
Before Xiao Xun said "Why are you here, San Shao?", the other party had already said coldly to Xu Ye, "Follow me."
"Third Young Master!" Xiao Xun stopped him in a deep voice, "I can't let you take him away without the second Young Master's personal order."
Chu Xuan raised her eyebrows, her peach blossom eyes narrowed: "Can you stop it?"
The atmosphere became tense in vain. The eight bodyguards who stayed outside the house jumped straight in from the window and protected Xu Ye in the center. And more than ten men in black outside the door also approached the house.
Chu Xuan raised his hand to stop their movements, and looked at Xiao Xun lightly: "If I didn't get the order, I wouldn't go to the second brother's site to grab people. You should have known who can give me the order. I have to take people away today, and you can decide for yourself whether you will do it or not."
Silence spreads. Butler Xiao, who has always been calm, turned pale at this moment. Chu Yu has been unable to be contacted since just now. Once Xu Ye is taken away from here, it is hard to predict what will happen. But the one who ordered, he couldn't defy...
"I'll go with you." Xu Ye, who had been silent for a while, suddenly said.
"Xu Shao!" Xiao Xun was shocked.
"It's alright." He rubbed his hand with the sticky dough on the apron and smiled at Chu Xuan, "Just wait a moment, I have to wash my hands and change my clothes, it's too ugly to go out like this."
The car galloped on the straight road, further and further away from the center of K city. Xu Ye is very familiar with this road, which is the direction to the east.
"Why don't you ask questions?" Chu Xuan, who was sitting beside him, said calmly.
Xu Ye gently pulled the corner of his lips: "Where to go, what to do, why go, even if I ask you, you may not answer these questions. Rather than embarrassing both parties, it is better not to ask anything. In the end, you will always know. "
The man looked at him for a while and said, "You are not the same as before."
"Is it better or worse?" Xu Ye turned his face to the side.
Chu Xuan was stared at by his bright black eyes, and there was a burst of heat in his heart for no reason, and he turned his face away and did not speak.
The car stopped in front of a manor.
Xu Ye followed Chu Xuan through the exquisite Chinese-style garden, and walked along the corridor with carved beams and painted buildings to the main house. The eyes are full of beautifully designed rockeries and clear ponds, green trees and flowers, and the black-clothed bodyguards in the mansion silently and respectfully retreated when they saw them.
There is a bitter smell of traditional Chinese medicine in the huge reception room. The sunlight penetrates through the open wooden lattice windows, and a layer of soft light is attached to the intricately carved mahogany furniture. The man sitting on the main seat held a white porcelain bowl in his hand, frowned slightly, and drank the black concoction.
"Father." Chu Xuan changed his usual arrogant attitude, stood up straight, and said in a low voice, "Someone brought it."
Xu Ye was shocked. Although he guessed something on the road, he was still nervous when he saw the real person. After all, this man is a famous underworld boss, a wealthy business legend, and Chu Yu's father. This man with a reputation for being a foreign tyrant is not as ruthless and ruthless as he imagined, but he is thin and elegant. But when he raised his eyes, the sharpness contained in those bright, oppressive eyes made people unconsciously concentrating and awe. This kind of indifference to self-prestige is the momentum that has been tempered by the years after experiencing the storm. It radiates from the bones and cannot be imitated.
"Yeah." Chu Guangyue glanced at Xu Ye lightly, and the empty bowl in his hand was immediately picked up by the accompanying servant.
"Hello, Master Chu, I'm Xu Ye." He took the initiative to greet him.
"Sit." The man's hair was dyed gray by the years, and he was wearing a linen Chinese-style clothes. His thin face showed no joy and anger, and asked, "How long have you been with the second child?"
"More than three months." He sat down on the mahogany chair beside Chu Xuan and answered honestly.
"What do you think of him?"
Xu Ye's face turned slightly red, and he replied, "...very good."
"So after you get the land to the east, you still don't plan to leave him?" There were dark waves in Chu Guangyue's eyes.
Xu Ye was startled, and there was a faint smile on his lips: "Second Young Master Chu's temperament is very clear. If I approached him with that kind of motive, I'm afraid I won't have the opportunity to sit here and meet you today." Chui said, "I have made a lot of efforts to win the project in the east, and the second young master's decision to invest is not because of my personal relationship with him. From now on, the implementation of the project seems to be very smooth. I can't guarantee that it will open next spring. What kind of wealth will flow in the future, but I am confident that the investment of Golden Eagle will not go to waste. As for our relationship..." He pursed his lips and said softly, "Although it sounds absurd... But I, love His. You are his father, and I very much hope to have your permission."
This is very sincere. Chu Xuan, who was sitting beside him, looked at him silently, with a bit of surprise in his eyes. He didn't expect Xu Ye to be so calm in front of the old man.
In fact, the parties involved were already so nervous that even their fingers were cold. Sitting stiffly in the chair, his heartbeat seemed to be racing too fast.
Chu Guangyue looked at him for a while and said, "What if I'm not allowed?"
Xu Ye was stunned, clenched his fingers, and raised his face with determination: "I won't leave him until Chu Yu lets me go."
As if hearing an interesting story, Chu Guangyue curled his lips and smiled: "Boy, you have to understand one thing, if I don't allow it, the second child will never be able to keep you."
The sense of oppression in his eyes made Xu Ye fight a cold war. He knew that the other party's words were not bluffing. After Chu Guangyue founded the Black Eagle Club and successfully cleaned it up, he handed over all business matters to his three sons, and he kept himself in a low position and rarely moved. However, what Xu Ye saw and heard when he entered this mansion made Xu Ye feel that Mr. Chu was the one who really controlled everything. No one can challenge his authority.
"I'm not the old stubborn stubborn stubborn you imagine. It doesn't matter what Chu Yu likes to play with, whether the bed partner is a man or a woman. The relationship between you is your business, and I will not interfere. Life is too short. Don't waste time doing boring things." Chu Guangyue looked at Xu Ye, who was completely stunned, and continued, "I didn't need to meet you originally, but the second child has done something that crossed the line, and I need to teach him a lesson." He He made a gesture, and after a while, two bodyguards in black walked in with a man.
Seeing that the man Xu Ye couldn't sit still any longer, he stood up abruptly, was pulled by Chu Xuan, and warned in a low voice, "Sit down honestly, this is not a place where you can mess around as you wish."
Xu Ye sat down stiffly, his eyes tremblingly fell on Chu Yu, who was full of whip marks, only to feel as uncomfortable as his heart was being tightened. The white shirt was pulled out by the whip in strips of cracks, revealing faint red marks, which must be bloody.
Chu Yu, who was kneeling in the middle of the room, also saw him, his pupils shrank suddenly, and there was steaming anger in his father's eyes, and said coldly, "Why did you involve him?"
"In those games you play, aren't the rules determined by the stronger side?" Chu Guangyue took a sip of tea leisurely, "You've been beaten 30 times, now you know what's wrong?"
"Invoking Anzi without your consent. Taking risks to move those old guys without adequate preparation. The mistake caused the fire to burn." Chu Yu replied blankly.
"That's all?" Chu Guangyue smiled, "Go ahead, Ten Whip."
Seeing the bodyguard with the black soft whip whipping towards Chu Yu's back without hesitation, Xu Ye couldn't help but want to ask for mercy, but Chu Xuan said solemnly, "The rules of the Chu family are to double the plea. Brother hurt more badly?"
Chu Yu endured the pain and said nothing, his eyes kept on Xu Ye, as if to reassure him. The man who had been walking firmly in front of him to protect himself from the wind and rain and let him look up was kneeling and beating so quietly at this moment. Xu Ye bit his lip tightly, his eyes reddened.
After the ten whippings, Chu Guangyue asked, "Do you understand now?"
The whip used for punishment was wrapped around Wu Jinsi, thin and heavy, and it hurt to death. Chu Yu gasped lightly and said, "I understand. I'm not ruthless enough. I have so many scruples about those old guys that Song Wanhua has the opportunity to form a gang."
Chu Guangyue raised the corners of his lips, looked at his second son kneeling on the ground, and said with a smile, "You still have to be beaten to learn fast. What to do next is up to you. If you don't move well, the whole Golden Eagle will be uneasy. , I will abandon you without hesitation."
"Understood, father." Chu Yu got up, and immediately a black bodyguard put a clean coat on him.
"As for your weakness, leave it with me temporarily." After Chu Guangyue finished speaking, he got up and left.
Xu Ye, who was finally able to stand in front of Chu Yu, looked at the wound on his body, but he didn't dare to touch it. A bitterness appeared in his throat that couldn't go away, and asked softly, "Does it hurt?"
Seeing that the other party's dark eyes were full of worry, Chu Yu smiled. "It hurts. But..." He raised Xu Ye's lower jaw and put his finger on his lips and said, "If someone could comfort me, maybe it wouldn't hurt so much."
Xu Ye raised his neck and kissed the slightly curved thin lips. Actively opened his mouth and wrapped the man's tongue, letting the other person sweep every inch of the warm mouth. It was a familiar breath, which made him feel at ease.
Sunlight shone in from the window, forming streaks of light within reach, illuminating the tiny tumbling dust particles in the air.
The lingering warmth, a charming room.
A soft cough interrupted their kiss. Xu Ye looked at Chu Xuan who was standing beside him, stepped back half a step as if his tail had been stepped on, and blushed in embarrassment.
How could you ignore such a big person next to you...
"Second brother." Chu Xuan said bravely, "The old man ordered me to capture Xu Ye..."
Chu Yu glanced at him: "This account will be calculated with you when I have time."
"... I, I'll get you the ointment." The smoke disappeared.
Xu Ye couldn't help laughing: "Why is San Shao so afraid of you?"
"It's because I used to beat him when I was young." Chu Yu sat down on the stone bench in the yard, and Xu Ye sat beside him, watching the koi swimming slowly in the pond. The man raised his hand and touched his head, "Are you afraid of coming here alone?"
"It was a little bit at first, and then I saw you... um, I didn't feel so nervous."
"The old man likes you very much." Chu Yu looked at his incredible expression and smiled, "Otherwise he would not allow you to stay."
"Allow me to stay?" Xu Ye looked at the man with blinking eyes in confusion. The phrase "Your weakness, temporarily leave it with me" flashed in my head, and I was stunned.
The wind passed between the two of them, blowing up the dark coat on the man's body, and there was a unique gentleness in his low voice.
"Xu Ye, my weakness is only you."
