AMTBYIGA Chapter 51

Chapter 51: The Little Prince

Lin Sui fell asleep halfway through his thoughts, only to be awakened the next day by the ringing of the phone. Groggily, he answered, then jolted awake.

“Teacher Sui, Teacher Sui, I’m sorry! I’ll go revise it right away!” Lin Sui knelt on the bed, his mind blank.

What was wrong with his artwork this time? Was the tone off, or was it lacking feeling? Or did they want the ever-elusive “colorful black” again?

“Little Lin, you don’t have to act like you’ve seen a ghost,” Sui Congzhi said languidly. “I’m calling you this time to bring you good news.”

Lin Sui patted his muddled head and said sheepishly, “Sorry, Teacher Sui, I was still asleep.”

“It’s fine, even if you say that, I’ll still be chasing you for drafts next time,” Sui Congzhi said magnanimously as Lin Sui’s smile gradually froze. “I’m calling because a brand wants you to be their spokesperson. I remember you do live streams, right? This person opened a handmade suit shop and wants to turn it into a brand. They saw your videos and thought you were a good fit.”

Hearing the word “suit,” Lin Sui’s heart leaped with joy, but he immediately became puzzled. “But with my popularity, I shouldn’t be able to get this kind of advertisement.”

Sui Congzhi said, “Well, who told you to be my employee? Our studio’s name still carries some weight. Don’t worry, I’ve already negotiated everything for you. All you need to do is wear the clothes, play a few songs, and draw a few pictures. I’ve seen the clothes, and the designs are very thoughtful, good enough for some luxurious occasions.”

Hearing this, Lin Sui had nothing to worry about. He thanked Sui Congzhi joyfully and went straight to Gu Nian in his pajamas to share the good news.

“Gu Nian, Gu Nian!” Lin Sui burst into Gu Nian’s room, jumped onto the bed with a thump, and showed him the suit thumbnails Sui Congzhi had sent.

“Teacher Sui helped me find a suitable suit, and it’s free! I just need to film a few promotional videos,” Lin Sui said happily. “These two suits are so beautiful. You’ll definitely look good in them when you wear them.”

Gu Nian, supporting Lin Sui’s waist, nodded with a smile. In reality, he had picked out these two outfits himself – they looked different in style, but many details indicated that they were actually from the same series. In short, they were couple outfits.

Last night, in order to pick out this outfit, he had promised to get Sui Congzhi a ticket to a private art exhibition.

But seeing how much Lin Sui liked it, Gu Nian suddenly thought that sending another painting was also fine.

In the following days, Lin Sui’s mind was occupied with those two suits. Without Gu Nian telling him, he took care of his health. In his words, “If I look too haggard, it’ll be a waste of such beautiful clothes.”

Gu Nian had a slight opinion about this. After all, he had begged and pleaded with Lin Sui before, but Lin Sui had dared to pretend to obey while doing otherwise.

The formal wear finally arrived at the villa the day before the auction. After Lin Sui signed for it, he pushed Gu Nian back to their room to change.

Lin Sui hugged his share and couldn’t wait to get into the changing room. He took out the top first, and as he unfolded it, he couldn’t help but gasp softly.

The actual item was much more stunning than what he had seen in the design sketches. The formal wear had an elegant cut, the shoulders were not too narrow or thick, and the waist was tapered. The chest pocket was decorated with a small tassel, and the edges were inlaid with gold trim, like the clothes of a little prince.

Lin Sui touched the soft fabric and was a little reluctant to wear it.

He stayed inside for a little too long, and Gu Nian, who had already changed, was urging him from outside. Lin Sui quickly threw it on and opened the door to see Gu Nian waiting at the door, his heart tightening.

“Is it, is it good looking?” Lin Sui scratched his nose awkwardly and said with an embarrassed smile, “Isn’t it a little weird? This outfit is too luxurious, not really suitable for me.”

Gu Nian didn’t say anything, his dark pupils looked at Lin Sui like black holes, deep and silent.

“You, say something.”

Gu Nian suddenly approached, helped Lin Sui tidy up the rolled-up hem, his voice slightly hoarse: “Very good looking.”

“Really?” Lin Sui showed a row of white teeth.

Gu Nian nodded seriously. Actually, it was more like, too good looking.

Although he had chosen it himself, and had imagined the effect of Lin Sui wearing it when he chose it, he only realized how charming Lin Sui was when he saw it with his own eyes.

It was like a medieval little prince who had mistakenly entered the city, full of curiosity, his eyes pure and bright, with a most pure love for everything in the world.

But when the little prince’s eyes fell on Gu Nian, that pure, unadulterated love took on a different look, becoming sweet and seductive. The innocent little prince became a fox who unintentionally seduced, enticing the passing scholar who could no longer let go.

Gu Nian stroked Lin Sui’s hand, his burning gaze scanning Lin Sui up and down.

The temperature on Lin Sui’s body gradually rose, and he shyly lowered his eyes, but did not struggle out of Gu Nian’s hand.

He was actually a little scared, but more expectant.

Ever since they had confessed their feelings in the ward that day, Gu Nian had become more and more excessive. Every time he looked at him like this, he would kiss him, kissing him fiercely, his tongue and throat would hurt, and after the kiss, the culprit would coax him with gentle words, making Lin Sui look forward to the next time every time.

Sure enough, before long, Gu Nian hooked Lin Sui’s neck and made him lie on his lap, looking up and kissing him. Perhaps because Lin Sui looked so innocent this time, Gu Nian rarely kissed him so fiercely, carefully guiding Lin Sui to obtain pleasure bit by bit.

Lin Sui felt very comfortable being kissed, his hands and feet went weak, his head was dizzy, and in the end he only knew to hum and hug Gu Nian’s neck and mutter to continue. The final result was that he was kissed into a daze again, his tongue hurt, his throat hurt, and he felt like he was going to be eaten.

Because of this, Lin Sui refused to approach Gu Nian for a whole day, until the next night when they set off for the auction, he hummed and moved to Gu Nian’s side, putting a blanket on him.

“The temperature is too low at night, this dress is too thin.” Lin Sui wrapped Gu Nian tightly.

When the familiar Benz arrived with the driver, he saw his majestic and inviolable boss smiling gently and letting the young man wrap a blanket around him, a top-notch terrifying scene of the year.

He trembled and closed the car door for the two of them, not daring to glance back, fearing that he would be fired and silenced.

Under the pressure, the driver broke through himself and managed to send the two to their destination in forty minutes during rush hour.

When Lin Sui pushed Gu Nian in, there were not many people, but almost everyone looked at the two at the door, their faces showing sarcasm, regret, and more gloating, a place full of conspiracies and intrigues at a glance.

Lin Sui didn’t like it here very much. Gu Nian saw it and said to Lin Sui in a low voice, “There’s still some time before it starts. There’s a lounge over there with tea and refreshments. Let’s go over there and rest.”

“Okay.”

The two entered the lounge, unexpectedly already having a guest. Unlike the people outside, this person only nodded slightly to Gu Nian as a greeting and then didn’t react at all, holding his mobile phone and not knowing what he was looking at, looking very focused.

Lin Sui glanced at this person a few more times.

This person had long hair that was uncommon for men. The hair, like black silk, casually draped over his shoulders, rising and falling with the slightly bowed movements, revealing a thin, fair chin. Even if he couldn’t see his face, Lin Sui could tell that this person was good-looking.

But no matter how good-looking, he wasn’t as good-looking as Gu Nian. Lin Sui glanced at him and concentrated on eating, while feeding Gu Nian.

Gu Nian also glanced at that person, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.

Why did he feel that he was a little familiar with this person, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

Gu Nian thought for a while but couldn’t remember, so he threw it to the back of his mind and enjoyed Lin Sui’s care.

After a while, almost everyone had arrived, and the lounge gradually became filled with the sounds of conversation. Lin Sui and Gu Nian moved to a corner, and unexpectedly found that the long-haired man was also there. This time, the other party didn’t even raise his head, and he didn’t know what important things he was looking at that he didn’t even notice someone approaching.

Where there are many people, there are naturally many discussions. Even if Lin Sui didn’t want to listen, he was forced to hear a lot of sarcasm, saying nothing more than that Gu Nian had worked so hard for so long, but in the end he had made a wedding dress for his illegitimate son, and so on. Lin Sui was quite angry at first, but later became numb.

Anyway, Gu Nian will turn over sooner or later and slap these people’s faces, Lin Sui Buddha-like added another piece of cake for himself.

Lin Sui ate two more pieces of cake and drank a cup of black tea before the auction finally started. Under the guidance of the waiter, Lin Sui and Gu Nian entered the box on the second floor. This place was very private, and ordinary people couldn’t enter. He didn’t know what Gu Zhicai’s intention was in giving them the invitation here.

Since they were here, they might as well be at ease. Lin Sui entered the box and continued to eat the snacks in the box. He regarded the outside auction as a meal-time drama. Anyway, he wouldn’t buy anything here.

Gu Nian saw that Lin Sui’s mouth hadn’t been idle since he came in, his cheeks puffed up like a little hamster’s. Feeling amused, he couldn’t help but keep feeding the little kid.

“Gu Nian, you eat too.” Lin Sui swallowed a piece of pastry and diligently held a rose petal-shaped pastry to Gu Nian’s mouth, “This is delicious, the floral fragrance is particularly strong, and it’s not very sweet.”

Gu Nian tasted it from Lin Sui’s hand, praised it without hesitation, and smiled happily when he saw Lin Sui smiling. He thought to himself that he would have Jiang Sheng dig this pastry chef over after it was over.

Yes, Jiang Sheng and the others also came to this auction, in the name of the company.

After all, it was related to his grandfather’s belongings, and Gu Nian didn’t have much expectations for Gu Zhicai’s bottom line. Who knew what tricks he would play, so he specially asked Jiang Sheng to come and make second-hand preparations.

One by one, the auction items were presented and, after fierce bidding, fell into the pockets of some wealthy businessman present. Gu Nian was not very interested in this kind of hypocritical occasion. If he wanted to do charity, it would be more useful to donate a sum of money directly or set up a foundation than this. Among so many people present, the number of people who came for charity could be counted on one hand.

Gu Nian lacked interest, Lin Sui concentrated on eating snacks, not even knowing what the auction items were. Seeing that it was almost time to end, but nothing had happened, Gu Nian frowned and looked at the auction stage, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

Sure enough, in the next second, a jade bracelet was taken out and placed on the black velvet cloth stage, immediately causing an uproar.

At the same time, Gu Nian’s eyes darkened and his fingers clenched.
