Chapter 264: A Lingering Ghost

Chapter 264: A Lingering Ghost

In a high-end villa district on a side star, Zhou’s mother and Zhou’s father sat on dining chairs, speechless.

The nutrient porridge on the table had already congealed, and silence spread. After what felt like a century, Zhou’s father raised his hand and slammed it heavily on the table, making a loud “bang” that caused him to tremble with anger.

Zhou’s mother was startled by his sudden action and shrieked, patting her chest with wide eyes, “Old Zhou, you can’t vent your anger on the table, no matter how angry you are.”

Zhou’s father rubbed his forehead vigorously with both hands, and sighed deeply, “It’s my fault. I haven’t cared about him all these years. It was fine when he was just playing around, but now he dares to bring a man back?!”

“Heh, regretting it now? In your eyes, besides robots, you’ve never cared about Zhou Zhou. Don’t worry about what happens next. Let’s see who that man is, who has the ability to turn Zhou Zhou gay.” Zhou’s mother curled her lips into a cold smile.

“Mother of my child, do you really agree to him bringing a man back? If he dares to step into this house, I dare to kick him out!” Zhou’s father stood up with a stern face, looking like there was no room for discussion.

Zhou’s mother chuckled, “Oh, it’s the first time I’ve seen you so angry. If you really dare to kick him out, then kick me out too.”

Zhou’s father’s arrogance instantly dissipated. He sat down again, reached out and took his wife’s hand, and said in a low voice, “Just spoil him as much as you want. I’ll find you a male daughter-in-law in the future. I’ll see if you face it with a smile or endure it with tears.”

“What kind of society is it now? Don’t bring up those old ideas in front of me. What’s wrong with homosexuality? Although men can’t have children, they can adopt.”

She cleared her throat and continued, “Besides, Zhou Zhou isn’t an obedient person to begin with. Maybe they’ll break up before long. You know his personality. He’s still young and hasn’t had enough fun.”

“Don’t wear a long face when they arrive later, it will make you look petty.” Zhou’s mother patted his hand, “We don’t know the man’s background, or how sincere he is to Zhou Zhou. We’ll decide everything after they arrive. If he’s not good to Zhou Zhou, then I’m sorry, I’ll definitely be the first to object.”

Zhou’s father asked, “What if he was tricked and deceived by your son?!”

Zhou’s mother: …

“That won’t happen, Zhou Zhou isn’t that kind of person.” Her voice became softer and softer, obviously feeling guilty.

From elementary school to university, Zhou Zhou had received countless love letters, and all the people he had dated had been outstanding girls. Now, suddenly, he says he has a boyfriend!

Zhou’s mother didn’t dare to think too much, for fear that her son would be ignorant and corrupt another young boy. That would be a sin.

The two of them fell silent again, their faces full of worry.

On the other side, Pei Yanlie looked at the boy who was excitedly looking at the scenery outside the window, and his cold face gradually softened.

He had originally planned to formally visit Zhou Zhou’s parents in two days, but now seeing him so eager to let loose on the spot, he only felt a ball of cotton stuffed in his heart, so soft that it was a mess.

He hugged Zhou Zhou into his arms, and his thin lips lightly brushed against his fair neck, “So happy?”

Zhou Zhou hummed, his slender fingers pressed against the transparent car window. He tilted his neck to avoid the other person’s lips, and said slowly, “That’s where I lived for twenty-one years. It’s been more than three months since I fell into a coma. How could I not miss it?”

“By the way, I haven’t heard you mention your own parents.” Zhou Zhou turned his head, his clear phoenix eyes staring straight at Pei Yanlie.

Pei Yanlie lowered his head and kissed the corner of his eye, his thin lips slightly curved, his deep pupils seeming to suck people in, “Want to see them?”

Zhou Zhou’s eyelids twitched wildly, and he said without thinking, “No hurry, let’s talk about it later.”

In that world, Pei Yanlie had open-minded and easy-going parents, but in the real world, no one had ever seen what his parents looked like.

[Could it be the opposite of the virtual world? What if they don’t like it?]

[Pei Yanlie, are you a mama’s boy?]

His neck was lightly bitten, and Zhou Zhou groaned, the warm and scorching lips pressed close to his ear, and the low voice was vaguely smiling, “Afraid?”

“No, don’t underestimate me. Am I, Zhou Zhou, someone who gives up so easily?” Zhou Zhou moved his butt to the side, raised his hand and grabbed his wet ear, his reddish eyes raised, and he looked charmingly at people sideways.

Pei Yanlie forcibly suppressed his desire, and slowly closed his eyes, afraid that if he looked at him any longer, he would be dragged into a corner and devoured completely.

Zhou Zhou silently swallowed, turned his gaze back to the window, his heart going up and down, uneasy, afraid that when he got home, he would be beaten by his parents.

This was the first class cabin of a passenger spaceship. There were only Zhou Zhou, Pei Yanlie, and a few bodyguards in black. When the commotion came, Zhou Zhou was playing with Pei Yanlie’s fingers with his head lowered.

“What’s going on outside?” Zhou Zhou raised his head and looked behind him.

Pei Yanlie opened his eyelids, grabbed Zhou Zhou’s restless hand, and nodded to the bodyguard.

The bodyguard left in a hurry, and it had been five minutes when he returned. He hesitated to look at Zhou Zhou, not knowing whether he should speak.

“Hmm? I can’t hear?” Zhou Zhou glared at him unhappily.

Pei Yanlie smoothed the hair on the side of his ear, and said in a low voice, “Speak.”

“The Su family’s young master knows you’re here and is making a fuss to come in.” The bodyguard lowered his eyes and replied in a measured tone.

Zhou Zhou was stunned, “Wasn’t he still in the hospital a while ago?”

“This…”

The bodyguard didn’t know the truth either.

Pei Yanlie said directly, “Don’t see him.”

He was afraid that if he saw Su Wanxing, he couldn’t help but pull out a gun and kill him.

“If you don’t go, I’ll go.” Zhou Zhou stood up with a sullen face. He had to make a break with Su Wanxing’s affairs, otherwise, he would still be haunted in the future.

How could Pei Yanlie let him face the half-crazy Su Wanxing alone? “Let’s go, I’ll go with you.”

At the door of the first class cabin, Su Wanxing was blocked by strong bodyguards, his face, so thin that it was only skin and bones, carried a haggard sickness. His mind was sometimes clear and sometimes muddled. Where was the arrogant look he had at the beginning?

“Get out of the way, I want to see the general.” His hoarse voice was no longer as crisp as before. Seeing that the bodyguards refused to let him pass, he began to scream, “Get out of the way! I want to see him! I was wrong, I was really wrong this time, please let me see him… Pei Yanlie, are you so heartless that you won’t even give me a glance!”

Zhou Zhou vaguely heard this sentence, and his face darkened, “Don’t go out, haven’t you seen that people are still obsessed with your face?”

Pei Yanlie shook his head, “His emotions are unstable now, I won’t let you face him alone.”

Zhou Zhou stopped, thought for a moment, and said, “Put on a mask.”

Pei Yanlie’s face, which attracted bees and butterflies, should be sealed up, so as not to be coveted by those cats and dogs.

Two intertwined footsteps came from far to near. Su Wanxing clenched his teeth, looking at Pei Yanlie whose entire face was almost covered by a mask, his expression becoming more and more agitated, “Are you satisfied with me becoming like this! My grandfather couldn’t stand the blow and became seriously ill. No one will care about me anymore. Pei Yanlie, you’re so ruthless! I’m also a victim, why put all the blame on me!”

Zhou Zhou frowned, looking at Su Wanxing, who was in a frenzy, and said coldly, “You are a victim, and those who were accidentally injured by you are even more victims. Su Wanxing, don’t you think it’s pathetic to run to him and sell yourself? Knowing that he doesn’t feel anything for you, what are you imagining? Love is not something you can get by crying and making a fuss.”

He held Pei Yanlie’s hand tightly, his possessiveness in his eyes undisguised, “From today onwards, give up this idea, he can only be mine.”

Su Wanxing grabbed his messy hair with both hands, stared, squatted down, and said in horror and helplessness, “I don’t want to be alone, you save me… You saved me once before, and now you want to abandon me? Pei Yanlie… I really can’t live alone.”

Pei Yanlie looked at him coldly, and ordered the bodyguards, “Give him a shot of tranquilizer, send him back to Main Star at the transfer station, and send him to the psychiatric department for treatment.”

“No! I’m not going to the psychiatric department, I’m not sick! You’re the ones who are sick!” Su Wanxing stood up in a panic, staggering backwards.

He was firmly suppressed by the bodyguards before he could take two steps. After a shot of tranquilizer, his whole body went limp, and he exuded a decadent aura.

The noise completely disappeared. Zhou Zhou looked at the gradually receding figure and murmured, “Pei Yanlie, if you hadn’t met me, would you have fallen in love with him?”

This sentence was meaningless, but he couldn’t help but ask.

Pei Yanlie tightened his grip, led him back to his seat, put him on his lap, and his deep, bottomless pupils reflected Zhou Zhou’s handsome face, and answered in a low and serious voice, “Zhou Zhou, the non-marriage that I said before was not a joke. Before I met you, my heart was a pool of stagnant water, without any ups and downs. Your assumption will never happen, if there were no you, I would only die alone.”

Zhou Zhou raised his hand and tore off his mask, opened his mouth and bit his lower lip, his sharp canines pressed against his soft lips, grinding lightly, “I asked you such a serious topic, why does it always not stop?”

[Pei Yanlie, you are a hypocrite!]
