After Catching The Rich And Old-Fashioned Daddy Chapter 42
byChapter 42 Conditions
Daddy let you go
In Li Chu’s mind, Shao Tingyue was rarely this fragile.
This man is always sober, calm, and in control of everything, and he can handle even the most difficult tasks with ease.
How could you be so drunk?
He broke away from the man’s arms, rubbed his eyes that were still asleep, and said warmly: “Second uncle, please lie down first, and I’ll get a towel to wipe your face, okay?”
The small lamp beside the bed was on, and the warm yellow light smeared on the side of the man’s face, softening his cold and three-dimensional outline.
The deep gaze melted into Li Chu’s face, and he looked at him for a long time before letting out a low “hmm”.
Li Chu pressed him on the bed, kissed the corners of his lips in a comforting manner, and said in a soft voice, “Daddy, please be good. I’ll be back soon.”
Then he ran to the bathroom wearing small cotton shoes.
All along, in order to avoid suspicion from the swiping servants, Li Chu rarely kept Shao Tingyue’s belongings in his bedroom.
But he was too lazy to run to the next room, so he took his usual washcloth, wet it with warm water and wring it out.
When he returned to the bed again, Shao Tingyue’s shirt had opened its collar, and he didn’t know how many buttons had been torn off.
Men play equestrian, shooting, and golf all year round, and their body fat percentage is always maintained at its best.
When he puts on a suit, he looks straight and majestic. When he takes off his clothes, he looks like a top male model.Not only are the muscles well-trained, but there are also mermaid lines on both sides that make people’s blood flow.
The young man pursed his lips and his cheeks felt a little warm.
A few months ago, he was an innocent baby with zero love experience. He felt awkward sharing a room with Shao Tingyue and didn’t dare to take another look.
But now…
Li Chu shook his head violently, not allowing himself to think about it anymore, in the middle of the night…
Shao Tingyue seemed to sense something, and his half-closed eyes slowly opened, just in time to catch the child’s gaze.
He looked at Li Chu for a while, and then lightly curled his lips.
Li Chu was stunned by the sight of him.
He always knew that his second uncle was born well.
The three-dimensional contours brought by mixed race are combined with the appearance of Oriental people, with high eyebrow bones, a nose bridge like a knife, and a clean jawline.
The man in his early thirties does not have many signs of age on his face, but his aura and sense of coercion have accumulated.
This kind of appearance is also the capital to reach the top in the entertainment industry where all young people are in their twenties.
But he happened to be Shao Tingyue.
It was the man at the end of the long conference table who silenced the whole room without saying a word, and who stepped out from the back seat of a Rolls-Royce in a three-piece suit and stared at the audience.
He was so powerful that when everyone looked up to him, they forgot what kind of skin he had.
Li Chu took a deep breath, sat on the edge of the bed, and first gathered up the man’s torn clothes.
“No need.” Shao Tingyue’s voice was hoarse, “It’s hot.”
He pulled Li Chu’s hand back and placed it on his heart.
A heart was beating violently underneath.
“Is it hot? Okay.”
Logically speaking, there is a constant temperature indoors throughout the four seasons, so you should not feel cold or hot.
Li Chu didn’t hesitate anymore and started to wipe his face with a warm towel.
The child’s eyes are focused and his movements are gentle.
Shao Tingyue kept looking at him with his eyes open, his dark eyes filled with an indistinct fog.When the eyelids are rubbed, they will also close them in cooperation.
Such a second uncle… so well-behaved!The young man didn’t know what he was thinking of, so he narrowed his eyes and smiled.
After wiping, he took the towel and went back to the bathroom to wash it, took off his shoes and went to bed, stroking the man’s brow.
“Second uncle, do you feel better? Does your head still hurt? Why don’t I go downstairs and ask Aunt Mei to make sobering soup for you…”
The children’s concern made Shao Ting feel better after hearing it. He squeezed Li Chu’s hand and brought it to his lips to kiss gently: “Thank you bb, it’s much better.”
Li Chuzhen felt that he was very drunk tonight and was pestering people like BOBO.
He couldn’t help but mutter in a low voice: “Really, why did Uncle Zhong let you drink so much wine?”
Shao Tingyue laughed softly.
He let go of Li Chu’s fingers, held his face instead and pressed a soft kiss to the corner of his lips.
“…Chu Zai is feeling sorry for her husband?”
Li Chu obediently let him kiss him, then thought about it and said seriously: “Second uncle, how about I press it for you. I have seen tutorials on the Internet before. Pressing these a few xue positions can relieve headaches…”
As he spoke, he raised his hand again and pressed his fingertips tentatively on Shao Tingyue’s temples.
Shao Tingyue closed his eyes and let the soft hands gently press his forehead. After a few seconds, he said, “bb, what is the Internet?”
Li Chu’s movements on his hands paused, he blinked and looked at the man close at hand.
He just spilled the beans without even noticing, and wasn’t this man drunk?Why are you still so clear-headed?
“…That’s right.” Li Chu searched hard for an excuse, “It’s like a library. There are a lot of information on it. If you don’t understand anything, you can go in and look it up. The types of knowledge are very rich, and it’s more complete than a library…”
He felt a little guilty as he spoke, and his voice became smaller and smaller.
The more Shao Ting finished listening, there was nothing strange in his dark eyes, and he held Li Chu’s arm tighter.
“Such an interesting place, bb will take me with you next time.”
“…Okay, definitely next time.”
Li Chu didn’t know how to admit that he didn’t belong to this era. After all, it was too fantasy… Sometimes he thought it was a dream.
It was already very late, and the entire Shao Mansion was quiet, with only a little warm light in the courtyard.
Li Chu felt sleepy, so he continued to rub his forehead for a while, and his eyelids began to droop.
“Second uncle, does your head still hurt…” He wanted to go to sleep, but he was worried that Shao Tingyue was still feeling uncomfortable.
The man lowered his eyelashes and said, “It doesn’t hurt much anymore. You can go to sleep.”
“…Is it useful? Then I’ll press it for a while…and it’ll be fine when you get up tomorrow.”
The child said he wanted to continue, but in fact he was so sleepy that he couldn’t open his eyes. The strength of his little hand became weaker and weaker, and finally he slowly slipped down.
He was completely asleep.
Shao Tingyue opened his eyes, his dark eyes were clear, and there was a thrilling wave in his eyes.
He leaned forward and kissed the sleeping boy’s lips, murmuring in a low voice, “BB, don’t leave, I will really lock you up…”
…
When Liang Wei arrived at Shao Mansion holding the documents, Uncle Ming led him upstairs and explained softly: “The second young master got up later today, and young master Xiaochu is taking care of him inside.”
The study door was ajar, and through the crack in the door, he saw Li Chu holding a white porcelain bowl, scooping up a spoonful of soup, bringing it to his lips and blowing it carefully before passing it to Shao Tingyue’s mouth.
“Second uncle, take another sip.” The young man’s tone was obviously anxious, “You will feel much better if you drink the hangover soup.”
As he spoke, he frowned, his voice became lower, and he said with some confusion: “Why does my head hurt even more after sleeping all night? Did Uncle Zhong give you fake wine? I really have to report it to Sister Zhiqing later.”
Shao Tingyue leaned back in the boss’s chair, wearing dark home clothes and looking a little less sharp than usual.
His face is indeed a little pale, and there is a very faint blue mark under his eyelids, which is the trace left by the sleepless night last night.
But Liang Wei has been with him for many years, and he can tell that the boss is in a good mood at the moment, which can be called happy.
He stood by the door and said nothing.
Until Li Chu stood up with the tray and saw Liang Wei when he passed the door, he was stunned for a moment, nodded as a greeting, and then went downstairs.
Liang Wei then walked into the study: “Boss.”
Shao Ting leaned back in his chair, the gentleness that had just faded from his brows and eyes, and returned to his usual calmness: “Go ahead.”
Liang Wei opened the notepad and began to report the work item by item.
Shao Tingyue listened to everything, occasionally nodding, occasionally giving a few brief instructions, his expression as usual.
After the report, Liang Weicai took out a sealed document bag from his bag and placed his hands in front of Shao Tingyue.
“Boss, this is the information related to the HKU exchange student program that you asked me to get yesterday.”
Shao Tingyue looked at the document bag and reached out to take it and look through it.
Liang Wei continued: “I have already contacted the three professors responsible for the project. The Shaw Charitable Foundation is interested in providing special sponsorship for the research topic at hand. The conditions have been negotiated and the funding will be allocated next month.”
“They are now asking what Shaw Brothers’ demands are, and they will try their best to fulfill them.”
Shao Tingyue had no expression on his face. After thinking for a moment, he finally raised his eyes and said, “Before the exchange student application list is finalized, please show it to me. In addition, Shao requires certain decision-making power on the final candidates.”
Liang Wei looked slightly stern. The funding of more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars was just for a small decision-making power… He nodded respectfully and said: “Understood, boss.”
…
The New Year in Hong Kong Island is always lively.Shao Mansion put on its festive costume early.
All the tall orange trees in the mansion were hung with red packets and small lanterns, and they were bright red and very festive.Pots of narcissus and peonies are placed everywhere in the main building. Most of them have bloomed, and the whole house is filled with a refreshing fragrance.
The old lady was wearing a dark red velvet cheongsam with an emerald lapel pin on her chest. She was sitting on the grand master’s chair in the main hall, surrounded by a circle of juniors who were waiting to get the money.
In his previous life, Li Chu almost always celebrated the New Year alone because his relatives didn’t want to see him.So there are no red envelopes or lucky money to speak of.
He was picked up from the quilt by Shao Tingyue early in the morning, carried to the bathroom to wash up, put on clothes, and then came down to pay New Year’s greetings to the old lady in a proper manner.After taking the heavy red envelope, the old lady pulled her to sit next to her before she could warm herself up.
“Our young boy is one year older.” The old lady pinched his cheek, “Why are you still so thin? Are we, the Shao family, not giving you enough to eat?”
“Eat well.” Li Chu felt a little embarrassed.
“Why don’t you grow meat when you are full?” The old lady looked at him angrily, took out another thicker red envelope from her pocket and stuffed it into his hand. “This is a gift from grandma alone. Keep it and buy whatever you like.”
Li Chu held the red envelope, his palms hot.
He knew that the old lady loved him, but the more unreserved this love was, the more guilt surged in his heart.
Shao Tingyue’s red envelope was given last night, not cash but a check.
Li Chu was very sleepy at the time, so he opened the red envelope and looked at it. He counted the zeros on it several times and still couldn’t count them all.
In fact, when he was confused, he also heard about receiving certificates, shares, dividends and the like.
Li Chu felt like a chubby piggy bank, and her husband was popping gold coins into it.
The man couldn’t help but laugh when he heard his metaphor. He hugged him and kept kissing him. His little friend, baby… was simply too cute.
Just kissing is not enough, you also need to hold his soft cheeks and praise bb seriously that he is very good and will grow up quickly and be healthy in the new year.
Li Chu was sleepy and confused. He just wanted to sleep because he was sleepy. Why did he behave so well?
Recently, my children were so busy opening a shop at the end of the semester that they couldn’t even touch the ground. When they got home every day, they were so sleepy that they fell asleep.
No matter how beastly Shao Tingyue was, he could only feel distressed. Even if he endured the pain, he would just kiss and hug the child while he was sleeping.
He felt that he was almost becoming an idiot.
Why can someone grow up so completely in line with their own heart, and become addicted to it as soon as they smell his scent?
Even though I have it, I never feel it’s enough.
After the New Year’s Eve dinner is the routine fireworks session.
Tables and chairs have been set up early in the garden of Shao Mansion, covered with snow-white tablecloths, and silver plates contain essential Chinese New Year snacks such as fried horns, fried dumplings, and candied lotus seeds.Uncle Ming was standing in the distance with a few servants, and the people responsible for lighting the fireworks were already in place.
When the fireworks shot into the sky, everyone raised their heads.
The two little girls, Zhenzhu and Baozhu, covered their ears, laughed and screamed, and wormed their way through the crowd. Shao Mingzhu chased them, grabbed them back and held them down.
Li Chu stood in the garden, with his little face raised and his eyes staring at the night sky without blinking.
It made a rumbling sound when it exploded, lighting up half the sky.Before one flower fell, the other rose again, dyeing the night sky of Victoria Harbor with brilliant colors.
Shao Tingyue stood beside Li Chu, looking at his raised profile, watching those gorgeous lights falling into his eyes, and the corners of his lips curved unconsciously.
Look at the fireworks, and look at the person watching the fireworks.
Not far away, Shao Mingzhu bit her finger and almost twisted it into a maggot. She looked at Li Chu, then at her second brother, then at Li Chu, then at her second brother——
His face turned red.Oh my god!The two people stood together, obviously not doing anything, just standing, one watching the fireworks and the other looking at each other.
How could it be so…
Ever since she found out about them, she has been getting out of hand.She couldn’t control the imagination in her head at all. Every interaction between her second brother and her first son made her feel extremely ambiguous, and she was afraid that others would see something.
Pearl ran over to her at some point and tugged at the hem of her skirt: “Sister, why are your face so red?”
Baozhu also followed suit: “Yes, yes, sister, do you have a fever?”
Shao Mingzhu came back to her senses and pinched Li Zhu’s little fleshy face: “What nonsense are you talking about! I am…I drank red wine, top! Do you understand?”
Pearl and Baozhu covered their blushing faces and said in unison: “I don’t understand, my sister must be in love and thinking about her boyfriend!”
Shao Mingzhu had a boyfriend when she was studying abroad. Shao Qixin was very opposed to it after learning about it and almost cut off her pocket money.After all, the men in the Shao family are all old-fashioned, and so was the second brother in the past.When wearing a suit, you have to button your shirt to the top, but I didn’t expect that it would turn out to be so unconventional.
Maybe it’s because Chu Tsai is too likable… Not to mention he’s good-looking, but he also has such a soft and cute personality!Everyone who sees him will like him, even herself.
The two beads kept talking about her boyfriend.
Shao Mingzhu took a deep breath and couldn’t help but glance over there again, “Don’t say any more! Wait until daddy hears that I’m not done with you two!”
The fireworks continue.
Li Chu was pointing at a particularly large golden firework in the sky, turned around and said something to Shao Tingyue, his eyes shining brightly.Her second brother, who was usually as cold as a mountain, was lowering his head to listen, with a very faint arc at the corner of his lips.
At this angle and this distance, she felt like they could kiss at any time.
Shao Mingzhu covered her face.
Enough is enough.If you continue reading, she won’t have to sleep tonight.
Li Chu thought the fireworks tonight were so beautiful that he couldn’t bear to blink.
“Second uncle, look, that one is so big! When it explodes, it looks like a shooting star!” He pointed at an exploding purple firework in the sky, and turned around to pull Shao Tingyue to watch it together.
There was the roar of fireworks exploding in my ears, and the faint sound of playing pearls and jewels could be heard in the distance. The lanterns in the garden swayed gently in the night wind, casting a warm light.
“BB, happy new year. Our first new year.”
Li Chu blinked.Fireworks exploded above their heads, lighting up the night sky like day.Those gorgeous lights fell on their faces.
“Happy New Year, second uncle.”
…
Li Chu finally submitted the application materials two days before the registration deadline.
Judy also called him several times and advised him earnestly: “Chu Tsai, you sign up first and wait until the results come out. What if you fail? Then don’t worry about it? What if you fail? Then we will discuss it with your family when the time comes. If you can go, go. If you can’t, forget it.”
Li Chu felt that what she said made sense, but as for Shao Tingyue… he was not sure either.
Will the second uncle be angry if he finds out?It’s only been a few months, and it’s not like they broke up…
He has never liked anyone, and of course he has never been willing to accept other people’s liking.
Being with Shao Tingyue was the most unorthodox thing he had ever done.
The huge disparity in their gender…identities reminds themselves that there is no result between them.
Li Chu is a person who thinks carefully when doing things because he is an orphan.Without the support of parents, life does not have as much room for error as ordinary children.
Even so, he did it.
Li Chu was actually not good at lying. The only time he went to dress up as a woman to act in a play without Shao Ting’s knowledge was that he was caught.
The painful lesson of that time still remains fresh in his memory, like being soaked in hot water all the time.
However, before Li Chu could muster the courage to be honest, he was taken onto the plane by Shao Tingyue.
The destination is a prestigious island in Southeast Asia.The wedding of Zhong Yili and Huo Zhiqing is scheduled here, so the Shao family will naturally attend.
When the plane landed, the warm and humid sea breeze blew into my face, carrying the sweet fragrance of tropical flowers.
Li Chu came out of the cabin, his eyes squinted by the bright sun, and he couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
“So warm.”
In March on Hong Kong Island, you still have to wear thin sweaters, but here it is already the season of short-sleeves.The humidity in the air is more obvious, making people feel drowsy easily.
The car that came to pick them up drove along the coastline, with endless blue outside the window.
The sea water shone with sparkling gold in the sun, layers of waves lapped at the fine white beach, and several white yachts could be seen on the sea in the distance.
It’s so beautiful. It’s the first time I’ve seen this color of blue. It’s like spilled milk in the sea.
Li Chu lay on the car window and forgot to blink.
Soon we arrived at the place where the entire island was filled with hotels.It is composed of independent seaside villas, hidden in dense tropical vegetation, with excellent privacy.
When you open the courtyard door, you will see a cobblestone path with plumerias planted on both sides. They are pink and white with a little yellowish color, blooming enthusiastically.
This kind of flower can be seen everywhere on the island, and there are also flowers floating on the pool in the courtyard.
Passing through the courtyard, the eyes suddenly opened up.
The infinity swimming pool glows azure in the sun, and the water is connected to the sea in the distance. It feels like you can swim into the blue as you swim.
There were two lounge chairs by the swimming pool, holding a large white parasol. Various tropical fruits and a basket of welcome drinks were already placed on the round table.
Li Chu stood by the swimming pool, his eyes lit up.
“Second uncle, look -”
He turned around and wanted to call Shao Tingyue, but found that the man was standing not far behind him, his eyes falling on him quietly for an unknown amount of time.
Li Chu felt that he had always looked at him like this recently, as if he was afraid that he would run away in the next second.
A trace of guilt flashed through his heart. Did his second uncle know that he wanted to go to England?
The floor-to-ceiling windows by the swimming pool can directly enter the bedroom, and the hotel butler has specially arranged a romantic arrangement.
The big bed was made of rose petals in the shape of a heart, and gauze curtains hung long from the ceiling.The transparent bathroom was lit with scented candles, flower petals were scattered around the edge of the tub, and there was a bottle of chilled champagne and two crystal wine glasses.
Li Chu looked at all this and suddenly remembered the first time he and Shao Ting went out on a yacht.The room they lived in was also arranged in this way at that time. It seemed that from that day on, the relationship between them began to become different.
“What are you thinking about?”
Shao Tingyue came up from behind, wrapped his arms around his waist, and rested his chin on his shoulder.
Li Chu’s ears were itched by his breath: “I was thinking…Uncle Zhong is actually half of our matchmaker.”
Shao Tingyue laughed softly.
“No,” he said.
Li Chu was stunned for a moment and wanted to turn around to look at him, but he was hugged tighter and kissed his ear.
“No?”
“No.” Shao Tingyue’s voice was very soft, “I liked you even earlier.”
Li Chu was completely shocked. He wanted to ask when it was. After all, before going to sea, Shao Tingyue seemed to have seldom looked at him in the eyes and spoke coldly.
The time he fell into the swimming pool drunk, the man tied his hands with a tie in the car and said he was going to throw him out!
Not to mention punishing him all the time by copying the house rules. During that time, Li Chu’s dreams were filled with densely packed traditional Chinese characters. Thinking about it now, he feels like his hand is about to break.
“Could it be that time at the bar?”
Shao Tingyue pinched his face and said with fond eyes, “BB, it will be sooner.”
A glance on a double-decker bus doesn’t actually qualify as love at first sight.But it is undeniable that Shao Tingyue began to notice the young man with a particularly different style among this group of people.
Li Chu had just arrived in this era and was busy washing dishes every day. When did the second uncle see him?
Did he move his lips?What else do you want to ask? Someone is knocking on the door.
“Mr. Shao?” It was a young woman’s voice, with professional politeness, “Mr. Zhong has started taking wedding photos, and the best man needs to be present…”
Li Chu was stunned for a moment and subconsciously looked at Shao Tingyue. By the way, his second uncle was the best man today.
Shao Tingyue lowered his head and smoothed out his messed up forehead, then leaned forward and kissed him softly: “Let’s go and take a look together.”
The wedding venue was on the hotel’s private beach.Walking from the villa, passing through a path with tropical plants on both sides, the scene suddenly opened up.
The beach is arranged into a sea of purple flowers.Curtains of the same color hang down from the white trusses, floating gently in the sea breeze like flowing fog.
There are tiny strings of crystal beads between the curtains, reflecting tiny pieces of light that flicker.
The floral arrangements include purple hydrangea and phalaenopsis, interspersed with a few sprigs of white lisianthus.The back of each white chair was tied with a purple ribbon, tied into a loose bow, swaying gently in the wind.
From a distance, it looked like a scene that would only appear in a fairy tale. Li Chu couldn’t even blink his eyes when he saw it, and his little face was full of surprise.
“Does it look good?” Shao Tingyue’s voice came from the side.
“It looks good.” Li Chu nodded vigorously, “It’s like a dream.”
“Do you like this kind of wedding?”
Li Chu was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at him. The man’s expression was very focused, as if he was seriously asking for his opinion.
“It’s not that I like the wedding, I just like this… atmosphere. Everyone sincerely wishes them blessings. No one objects, no one thinks it’s strange, no one thinks it shouldn’t…”
The young man suddenly stopped when he said this, his beautiful eyes fixed on the man.
He didn’t say the next words, but Shao Tingyue understood what the child meant.
No one thinks it shouldn’t be——
It’s because they have an aboveboard relationship, and their union meets everyone’s expectations, so they don’t have to hide, feel guilty, or pretend to be just ordinary uncles and nephews in every public situation.
Shao Tingyue took a deep breath and said, “BB, if you want, we can too.”
Li Chu was startled when he heard this, what can he do?Like Zhong Yili and others, do you accept everyone’s blessings?
He didn’t dare to think… No matter what era it was, homosexuality was not mainstream, let alone Shao Tingyue’s status.It is destined that his relationship and marriage will attract the attention of many people.
Li Chu didn’t know how to answer this question, so he laughed and laughed.
At this time, someone was shouting not far away: “Ting Yue! Come here, come here!”
Zhong Yili was wearing a white suit, standing next to the photographer and waving in this direction.
Huo Zhiqing was wearing a pearl-colored wedding dress and was being touched up by makeup artists. When she heard Zhong Yili’s voice, she also raised her head and smiled.
Shao Tingyue glanced at Li Chu and said softly: “BB, I’ll go for a while.”
Li Chu smiled and nodded, watching him walk over.
The photographer began to direct the position. Zhong Yili put his arm on his shoulder and said something. There was no expression on his face, but he cooperated and stood where he should stand.
The sun on the island was very strong. Although Li Chu was not afraid of getting tanned, he still stood in the shadow of the coconut tree.
Huo Zhiqing’s wedding dress was dragged on the beach, and the skirt was decorated with fine sequins, sparkling in the sun.Zhong Yili smiled so much that his lips reached to his ears. He held the bride’s waist with one hand and had the other hand free to pose.
“The best man looks this way, yes, a little sideways, okay, that’s it…”
Shao Ting turned his face sideways, and the sunlight cast a shadow between his straight nose and eye sockets.He was wearing a light gray best man suit, which was a little less sharp than usual, but he was still the most eye-catching one in the crowd.
Huo Zhiqing didn’t know what was going on between him and Li Chu, so she deliberately set them up.
Her bridesmaid was her best friend in middle school. She came from a well-off family, was sweet-looking, and had delicate features like a doll. She was extremely petite and delicate. When she stood next to Shao Tingyue, she had to raise her head to see his face.
“Come on, come on.” Huo Zhiqing struck while the iron was hot and greeted the photographer with a smile, “Help Ting Yue and Amanda take some pictures too! It’s rare that the weather is so good today and the background is beautiful.”
The photographer smiled and gestured OK, held up the camera and began to direct the position: “Mr. Shao, please stand here, yes, a little to the left. Miss Amanda comes closer, yes, if you get closer, you can hold hands.”
Next to him, Zhong Yili’s eyes darkened, and he quietly gave Huo Zhiqing a wink.
He knew his brother too well.Sure enough, Shao Tingyue’s face turned cold, like the ice on the twelfth lunar month in winter, which looked calm but could freeze someone to death underneath.
However, Huo Zhiqing didn’t notice it at all and was still there enthusiastically.
“Amanda, haven’t you always wanted to meet Mr. Shao? Today is the perfect opportunity!”
The bridesmaid named Amanda had two blushes on her face, and her eyes were filled with sparkling things.She looked up at Shao Tingyue, her eyes——
Worship, admiration, and a little shyness of a young girl.
Ship King!Hong Kong Island’s top wealthy family, the helmsman of the Shaw Brothers ship!
Although the news broke in the newspapers that he was getting married, how long had it been?For more than half a year, which media has photographed the so-called “marriage partner”?
It has long been rumored in the circle that it was just a smoke bomb he put out to deal with his family.
If you are really getting married, how could there be no news at all?How is it possible to never bring anyone out in public?
So…she still has a chance, right?
Amanda’s heart was beating fast.She turned slightly sideways and adjusted her stance to expose her more photogenic left side of the face.Then he stretched out his hand, about to hold the tall man with a cold aura in front of him.
She could already imagine how this photo would look in a magazine.She will be a thorn in the eyes of all unmarried women in Hong Kong and the envy of everyone.
Shao Tingyue had no expression on his face. He looked across the crowd and landed not far away——
Li Chu got a plate of small cakes from somewhere and sat on a white bench under the shade of a tree.
The child eats very well, eating the cake in small bites, his cheeks slightly bulging, like a little hamster eating secretly, and occasionally licking the cream on the corner of his mouth.
Sunlight leaked through the gaps in the leaves, casting a mottled light and shadow on him.Her hair was also glowing, she looked like a little angel.
He ate very seriously and attentively, completely unaware that his husband was about to take pictures with other women.
The corners of Shao Tingyue’s lips tightened, and his aura became colder.
The photographer didn’t dare to push too much. He looked at Amanda who was confused and was about to speak when he suddenly saw the man glance at him coldly.
“Sorry, excuse me.”
After saying that, he walked past the photographer and left.
Amanda froze in place, still maintaining the carefully adjusted smile on her face.But the mask was still there, but the underneath was in pieces. She took a deep breath.
Huo Zhiqing opened her mouth and looked at Zhong Yili, who covered her face and didn’t want to speak.
“Is it delicious?” A man’s voice sounded in front of him.
Li Chu raised his head and blinked. Was the photo finished so quickly?He licked his mouth subconsciously, his pale pink lips shining brightly: “It’s delicious, uncle, do you want to try it…”
Before he finished speaking, the plate in his hand was taken away and put aside.
Shao Ting looked more and more at the cream on the corner of his mouth that had not been licked clean, and gently wiped it off for him with his fingertips.
Li Chu inexplicably felt that Shao Ting was not happy anymore, and the cake in his mouth no longer tasted good: “Second uncle, what’s wrong with you?”
“It’s nothing.” The man took a deep breath, as if trying to control his emotions, “After eating, we will go back and change clothes. The ceremony will begin soon.”
Zhong Yili watched this scene from a distance and sighed quietly,
Huo Zhiqing was a little uneasy and asked him in a low voice if Mr. Shao was angry?She means well…Amanda is not only beautiful, but also a good girl.
Zhong Yili didn’t know how to explain it, he just said that Shao Tingyue’s relationship was already decided, so don’t try to make random arrangements next time.
Amanda’s face turned ugly, she forced a smile and said it didn’t matter, stared at the sea in a daze for a while, and then said with red eyes that she should go back and change clothes.
As soon as Li Chu returned to the room, he realized something was wrong.
Shao Tingyue said nothing with a cold face. He gently hugged him and placed him on the entrance cabinet.
This height is just right, the two of them are looking at each other, breathing intertwined.
The man lowered his head and kissed him.
After the kiss, Li Chu’s voice was as soft and rustling as cotton candy: “Second uncle, what’s wrong with you?”
The young man didn’t understand. Wasn’t he taking pictures just now?The atmosphere is quite good, the men are handsome and the women are beautiful.The bridesmaid sister next to her is also very beautiful, although she seems to be staring at the second uncle all the time.
But it’s human nature, after all, good-looking people always attract the attention of others.
Shao Tingyue rubbed the water stains on his lips and asked word by word: “BB, what’s more important, the cake or the husband?”
Li Chu: “…What kind of cake?”
After a moment, he realized what Shao Tingyue meant and was a little speechless. Why did he compare himself with a piece of cake?
“The cake is cake, and the husband is husband. Is there any conflict?”
Shao Tingyue looked into Li Chu’s crystal clear eyes and sighed: “Kid, please keep an eye on your husband next time.”
…
The wedding ceremony officially starts at three o’clock in the afternoon.
The white chairs on the beach are already filled with guests.The elders of the Zhong family and Huo family sat in the front row.
Father Zhong was wearing a dark suit, with a smile that couldn’t be hidden on his face. Mother Huo was pressing the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and Father Huo was patting her back gently and whispering something.
Li Chu was sitting in the middle of the guest seat and saw a familiar figure not far away, it was Alex.
He was wearing a white dress shirt and had a camera slung over his shoulder, lowering his head to play with the lens.
Realizing that someone was looking at him, Alex raised his head and met Li Chu’s gaze. He immediately bent his eyes, smiled, and waved to him.
Li Chu also smiled in response.
He didn’t have any particular opinion of Alex.Although the second uncle didn’t seem to like him very much, he felt that Alex was just an ordinary friend, enthusiastic and talkative, nothing more.
The melodious music sounded, and everyone fell silent in unison.
The bride appears.
Huo Zhiqing held her father’s arm and walked slowly towards the ceremony pavilion.Her veil is very long, and when the wind blows, it floats gently, like a gentle cloud.
Zhong Yili stood in the ceremony pavilion, wearing a white suit with a purple corsage on his chest.He watched Huo Zhiqing walking towards him step by step, his eyes gradually turning red.
Li Chu looked at the way he raised his hand to wipe his eyes, and he was also infected.
How wonderful… He thought in his heart, lovers will eventually get married.
The ceremony went smoothly.Rings were exchanged, oaths were read, and parents of both parties made speeches.
Huo Zhiqing’s voice was choked when she read the oath. Zhong Yili held her hand at the side, his eyes redder than hers.Li Chu felt that he would burst into tears the next second.
It’s hard to imagine that Uncle Zhong, who has always been polite and courteous, could have such an emotional side.
The moment the emcee announced that they were officially married, the audience burst into warm applause.
Li Chu was also applauding, his eyes following the newcomers on the stage, and then another line of sight hit him.
Shao Tingyue stood at the best man’s table, looking at him across the crowd.
The gaze was very deep and heavy, like the deep sea, with an indescribable desire and thought.It was like there were a thousand words to say, but nothing came out.Just looking at him intently across the hall full of guests and applause.
Li Chu’s face suddenly felt hot, and he silently turned his eyes away and stopped looking.
“Bang——”
With a loud noise, beautiful purple smoke erupted from behind the background wall composed of thousands of flowers, rushing into the sky, dyeing the entire beach into a dreamy color.
Cheers, applause, and whistles mixed together, and the sea breeze blew away the colorful smoke and floated into the blue sky.
…
The dinner was held outdoors on the hotel lawn.
The tropical-style decoration is more island-specific than the rigid decoration in traditional Hong Kong hotels.
The long tables were covered with floral woven decorations, and piles of tropical fruits were placed in the center of each table.The seafood is a whole grilled fish, steamed lobster with garlic sauce, charcoal grilled prawn skewers, and seafood soup served in a coconut shell.The aroma of food mixed with the fragrance of flowers floated in the warm and humid evening breeze.
The two newlyweds changed into more casual attire and toasted table after table.
Zhong Yili had already drank so much that his cheeks were red, his enthusiasm was high, and he smiled even more stupidly: “Ting Yue, come here, come here, my dad asked you to come over and have a chat——”
Shao Tingyue glanced at Li Chu, whispered “Wait for me”, and then followed Zhong Yili to the table where the elders of the Zhong family were sitting.
Li Chu nodded, picked up the wine glass in front of him, and took a slow sip.
It’s a fruity sparkling wine, sweet and with a little bubbles.
He took another sip, it was delicious.
By the time he came to his senses, he had already had several drinks.My cheeks are a little hot and my head is a little wandering.
But he liked such a lively atmosphere very much, listening to the conversations and laughter around him, the corners of his mouth kept curling up.
“Chu Zai.” Someone called him next to him.
Li Chu turned his head and saw Alex sitting in the empty seat to his left at some point.
“Your face is so red.” Alex smiled and touched his cheek softly: “Drink too much?”
“No.” Li Chu shook his head sluggishly, feeling very sober, “Just a few drinks.”
Alex laughed out loud: “A few drinks is not enough? You are also awesome.”
Li Chu retorted with a snort: “I drank a whole bottle of Romanee-Conti on my record, and I didn’t get drunk!”
“A whole bottle? Real or fake? Can your second uncle agree?” Alex didn’t believe it, looking at the young man’s rosy cheeks in the evening breeze, his eyes like a sparkling lake.
Li Chu remembered some memories that made people blush and heartbeat, and he covered his mouth and nodded.
Alex was afraid that he was really drunk, so he asked the waiter to bring him a cup of hot tea, “Chu Zai, you will feel better after a few sips.”
Li Chu held the cup and took two sips, then didn’t want to drink anymore.
Then I held my chin and listened to Alex talk about the good photos he took today, and there will be a music performance later…
He heard nothing but nod, occasionally nodded, and occasionally smiled.
The evening breeze blew over and was very comfortable.
Shao Tingyue came back from the toast and accidentally saw Alex surrounded by children.The two were talking and laughing, and had a great time.
I can’t even stare at him for a while.
Walking back with a sullen face, he discovered that Li Chu was still drinking. No wonder Alex’s eyes never left his face. Why is this kid always haunted?
When Alex saw Shao Tingyue walking over with an unkind expression, he immediately explained: “Mr. Shao, Chu Tsai has been drinking. I just chatted with him.”
The man hummed lightly, picked Li Chu up from his seat, and said in a low voice, “I’m back, bb.”
Li Chu stood up obediently and followed Shao Ting as he walked towards the villa.
Alex looked at their backs, shrugged, and continued eating.
As soon as the door closed, Shao Tingyue’s kiss fell, smelling of alcohol and obvious anger.
Li Chu was kissed so much that his brain felt like it was filled with paste, and he couldn’t think of anything.
The banquet was still going on not far away, and the sound of laughter and music could be heard vaguely.Across that door are two completely different worlds.
After a while, Shao Tingyue finally let him go.
Li Chu gasped for breath. He was about to ask what was wrong when he heard a man’s deep voice ringing in his ears:
“BB, do you really want to go to England as an exchange student?”
Li Chu’s eyes suddenly opened wide, and he was more than half sober in an instant.
“Second, second uncle…” He stuttered, his tongue seemed to be knotted, “How do you know…”
He hasn’t figured out what to say yet, hasn’t figured out how to speak yet, hasn’t yet…
Will he be angry… Li Chu was a little uneasy.
Shao Ting pressed his forehead against his, his eyes as dark as midnight showing his determination to win: “BB, register your marriage with me, and my husband will let you go.”
