TLCBITAR Chapter 208

Chapter 208: Rest and Recuperation

Two days later, Zhou Zhou was finally able to get out of bed. He was supposed to report to the Federal Army Office three days ago, but Pei Yanlie’s perverted behavior had caused him to miss his reporting time.

Since the army hadn’t urged him, he wasn’t in a hurry. Anyway, he didn’t want to be some damn data analysis assistant.

He walked around Pei Yanlie’s ridiculously large room and then went to the balcony.

The tall buildings outside were looming in the early morning mist, resembling a mirage.

Zhou Zhou calmed down and admired the beautiful scenery for a while, then turned on his optical brain to check the messages sent by his micro-network friends.

[Little Hu: Where have you been these past few days?]

[Zhou Xiaozhou: Rest and recuperation.]

[Little Hu: I’m not joking with you, answer me, where are you! (Angry)]

Two days ago, Hu Wenxu stood at the door of Zhou Zhou’s former small villa. The butler robot informed him that Zhou Zhou hadn’t been home for three days.

He tried to contact Zhou Zhou, but the other party never answered the phone. On the tenth call, Zhou Zhou sent a message.

[Zhou Xiaozhou: At my boyfriend’s house, do not disturb.]

Hu Wenxu’s expression at the time was as ugly as if he had seen a ghost, and he almost broke the wristband buckle.

“Boyfriend?! Are you fucking kidding me!” Hu Wenxu squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth, and then was overwhelmed by nameless anger.

Zhou Zhou is straight, how could he have a boyfriend!

Various unbelievable thoughts churned in his mind. Finally, he comforted himself: “It must be a joke, not funny at all.”

He called again, but there was no response. Hu Wenxu returned to his uncle’s house in a daze, suppressed the urge to ask his uncle for help, and locked himself in his room.

For several days, he had no appetite and couldn’t sleep, staring at Zhou Zhou’s avatar in the micro-network.

Finally, today, Zhou Zhou replied.

Hu Wenxu, with dark circles under his eyes and messy hair, glared fiercely at the message sent by Zhou Zhou in the micro-network.

“Rest and recuperation, you’re so good at talking,” he muttered through gritted teeth.

He directly made a video call, but Zhou Zhou rejected it. Hu Wenxu’s breathing instantly became rapid, wishing he could climb into the optical brain and drag the other party out.

Before the anger could spread, the other party made an audio call.

Hu Wenxu answered in a second, impatiently asking, “Where are you now? What do you mean by boyfriend?”

“I had a fever for a few days and got confused. Don’t mind those nonsense,” Zhou Zhou said softly, rubbing his sore buttocks, his voice still a little hoarse.

Without guessing, the sentence “boyfriend” was 100% sent by that bastard Pei Yanlie.

He even gets jealous of Little Hu, is he even a man? So fucking stingy.

The aftereffects of excessive indulgence kept him in bed for five days. During this time, Pei Yanlie stayed with him until he went to the Federal Army this morning.

“Then where are you now? I’ll come find you,” Hu Wenxu asked hastily.

“No, although the fever just went down, my body hasn’t recovered yet. I don’t want to pass it on to you,” Zhou Zhou refused without thinking.

No way, he had no interest in being seen in this miserable state by a third party.

Hu Wenxu pressed for an answer, “Whose house are you at?”

“A friend, you don’t know him. Don’t ask so many questions.”

Zhou Zhou helplessly rubbed his forehead. When did Hu Wenxu become so nosy?

After chatting with Hu Wenxu for ten minutes, Zhou Zhou closed the audio call.

He slowly walked into the bathroom, looked at himself in the mirror, and cursed.

His neck was covered with dense hickeys, and the bite mark on the right side was very obvious. He pulled down the loose collar of his shirt, and the marks on both sides of his chest became even more horrifying, as if he had been abused.

He took a deep breath, supported the sink with both hands, and thought about whether to stay here or sneak home.

With Pei Yanlie’s domineering nature, he wouldn’t let himself leave casually. Zhou Zhou turned on the faucet to wash his face and wiped it with a dry towel.

He looked at the mirror again. The loose white shirt barely covered his buttocks. This was Pei Yanlie’s clothes. His own clothes had been torn by Pei Yanlie in the hovercar.

Pei Yanlie clearly had time to prepare a new set of clothes for him, but he seemed to have forgotten about it. Zhou Zhou curled his lips. “What a cunning man, afraid I’ll put on clothes and run away?”

Zhou Zhou walked out of the bathroom, left the bedroom, and entered the adjacent walk-in closet.

The left side was full of shirts and suit pants of similar styles, and the other side was wrinkle-free, crisp military uniforms.

Zhou Zhou took a pair of suit pants and compared them, then sighed. If he gained another twenty pounds, he might be able to wear Pei Yanlie’s pants.

He touched his waist, which was much thinner than before, and put on Pei Yanlie’s pants in a self-deprecating manner.

Sure enough, the waistband was loose and he couldn’t walk at all.

He pulled the waistband with one hand and took a belt with the other, putting it on with a dark face.

The waistband was wrinkled by the belt. He put down the hem of his shirt, just enough to cover the unsightly area.

Anyway, no one can see it, so no worries.

Remembering that Pei beast almost lost control last night, he decided to leave here later, lest his butt suffer again if he left one step later.

Pei Yanlie’s home was a four-story luxury villa, with an area similar to that of Pei’s CEO’s house. Zhou Zhou took the elevator down to the first floor. Before he took a few steps, he heard a male voice full of smiles coming from the villa entrance.

“Butler Qiu, the General hasn’t been to the army for several days. I’m worried about his health, so I came to visit him on the way.”

“That’s a pity. The General just left,” Butler Qiu looked about sixty or seventy years old, with slightly graying temples. He was actually over a hundred years old and had served the Pei family for two generations.

Just as Zhou Zhou stepped out of the elevator, the two people standing at the door looked over upon hearing the sound.

He had been staying in the room these past few days and hadn’t seen Pei Yanlie’s servants. However, Butler Qiu had seen him twice while he was unconscious. Remembering Pei Yanlie’s instructions, he quickly walked over and asked softly, “Young Master Zhou, why did you come down?”

“Why are you here?” Su Wanxing’s smile instantly froze, he pressed down the corners of his mouth, his expression extremely ugly.

Zhou Zhou had an impression of this handsome man in military uniform. The other party harbored inexplicable hostility towards him, and seemed to regard him as something…

Um… a love rival.

Does he like Pei Yanlie?

Zhou Zhou slowly approached them, looking him up and down.

His height was estimated to be 180 cm. His slender waist could be encircled with one hand under the restraint of the military uniform. His hand clenched into a fist the moment he saw himself, as if he was about to beat someone.

Zhou Zhou fixed his gaze on his face, thinking to himself: This face is fair and tender, pretty good. It’s a pity that being close to the water doesn’t guarantee the moon. The person Pei Yanlie likes is me.

He suppressed the surge of excitement in his heart and walked slowly in front of him, hooking his lips and smiling: “Why do you think I’m here?”

Su Wanxing felt that he was being offended. He raised his head slightly, the hostility in his eyes undisguised. “What is your relationship with the General?”

“Guess,” Zhou Zhou raised his eyebrows and smiled playfully.

Su Wanxing’s gaze moved down. When he saw the hickeys on his neck, his face turned black.

Anyone with eyes could tell what Zhou Zhou had experienced. He deceived himself, thinking that the other party might have been bullied by hooligans and the General kindly brought him home.

He clenched his teeth, his dark face turning white in an instant. He wanted to leave here, but he also wanted to know the answer, and he also wanted to question the General in person, didn’t you say you were going to be single for life!

He had hidden this love for three years, always performing diligently in front of the General, never crossing the line.

Unexpectedly, his restraint was exchanged for other men taking advantage of the situation.

The General had just woken up from the hospital, and this fox spirit had taken advantage of him. The General was such a strong-willed person, how could he be bewitched?

It must be that this boy gave him some kind of medicine.

His breathing became rapid and he couldn’t help but grab Zhou Zhou’s collar, his scarlet eyes frightening, “Say! What did you do to the General!”

Although Su Wanxing was slimmer than Zhou Zhou, he was still a soldier who had undergone high-intensity training. Zhou Zhou couldn’t pull his hand away for a while, so he could only move his lips and taunt, “I can’t even beat you, what can I do to him? You flatter me too much.”

Seeing that they were about to fight, Butler Qiu quickly called the bodyguards to separate them.

Su Wanxing pointed at Zhou Zhou with one hand, trembling: “Shameless! What tricks did you use to get into his bed!”

“Need me to teach you a few tricks?” Zhou Zhou patted away the bodyguard’s hand, looking at Su Wanxing with a smile that wasn’t a smile.

“I would never use such dirty tricks!” Su Wanxing was so angry that his handsome face twisted, and he trembled all over.

Zhou Zhou blinked, teasing, “But, the General just likes my dirty tricks.”

Although Pei Yanlie, who had lost his memory, was very bad, he was still his man, how could he be coveted by this kind of cat or dog.
