Their Treasure (2)
He looked like a mixed race.
Bai Qi greeted him, “Hello.”
“Hello.” Adolph took a step in. “I didn’t expect him to return and bring someone back. I heard he became a big star in China, very busy, right?” He asked the latter half of the sentence to Xi Chengyun.
Xi Chengyun didn’t answer.
Adolph didn’t wait for them to speak before continuing, “Leach and the others all miss you…… We fought with Lance last time and almost resorted to guns.”
Xi Chengyun frowned unnoticeably.
He didn’t like it when people mentioned his past in front of Bai Qi and talked to him like this. It was a very obvious act of excluding the other party.
Bai Qi might not care.
But he felt irritated.
Xi Chengyun held Bai Qi with one hand, and when he walked in front of Adolph, he said, “You need Dr. Soulei’s phone number.”
Then he led Bai Qi to the door.
Bai Qi whispered, “Dr. Soulei?”
“Psychiatry,” Xi Chengyun said.
Bai Qi: “Pfft.”
Adolph muttered to himself inside the door, “Is he calling me an idiot?”
“I can’t believe he can’t even say things like ‘you’re dumb’ anymore. Has he become so hypocritical? Did you hear that, Leach?” It turned out he wasn’t talking to himself; he was on the phone with someone.
The person on the other end of the phone was speechless. “You’re dumb. If he doesn’t say it, I’ll say it, OK? It’s not that he’s become hypocritical. That’s because he’s in love.”
Adolph muttered, “Damn, so being in love makes people abnormal?”
When Bai Qi and Xi Chengyun boarded the ship, Adolph still chased after them enthusiastically.
“We grew up with him, and I know how to write his Chinese name. I’ll write it for you.” Adolph pulled out his cell phone and drew out the pen that came with it.
Bai Qi: “But there’s a cross missing here. There’s an extra cross here.”
Adolph: “…… Oh. O_o”
Xi Chengyun almost laughed out loud.
Adolph put away his phone and quickly dispelled the embarrassment as he attempted to head for the bow. “Let me drive the boat, okay? We used to set sail with YUN all the time. Have you ever been to a casino above the high seas? Of course, there’s more to it than that. Besides, you must not have seen the true restoration of the Roman Colosseum’s bloodbath, have you? I……”
Adolph never finished his sentence.
Xi Chengyun kicked him off the boat.
Bai Qi: “…… Is this Xi-laoshi’s rebellious period?”
Xi Chengyun didn’t even blink. “No, he’s talking nonsense.”
Adolph was a good swimmer, and he quickly latched onto the side of the boat again with one hand. “There was also the time when we took a helicopter together and parachuted off Everest Peak. Then we were all hung upside down from a tree, hahaha!”
“When he went to Dubai, the alpacas only spit at him alone, haha.”
“And when he went camping, he was chased by a female orangutan for 3 kilometers……”
Bai Qi: “Actually, Xi-laoshi’s rebellious period is also quite… interesting.”
Xi Chengyun didn’t respond as he kicked Adolph back into the water again and turned on the boat’s engine.
Bai Qi, who thought he had to paddle the boat manually to experience the quiet time, watched the boat “swoosh” and flew out. The rumbling sound of the motor overshadowed Adolph’s voice.
Six of the seven swans on the lake were scared away.
Bai Qi: “……”
Xi Chengyun whispered at this time, “It’s not very interesting, and that’s just the barely listenable part. Many outrageous-sounding things are legal in this land.”
“Like Adolph, his mother was an Asian woman. His father’s family didn’t approve of such a marriage and would constantly abuse them for being ‘mixed race.’ His mother couldn’t take it and killed herself on drugs. He followed the same path when he was eighteen. But it’s legal in this part of the world.”
This was why Xi Chengyun was upset that Adolph always brought up the past.
Qi Qi couldn’t listen to this. Bai Qi was shocked. “Then Xi-laoshi……”
Xi Chengyun: “Do you remember the bodyguard who came to pick us up?”
Bai Qi: “Huh?”
Xi Chengyun said indifferently, “He also had a hobby like this. One time, when he had an attack, he happened to be bumped into me. He looked like a madman, an out-of-control animal, unlike a human. He reached for me, so I removed the wall hanging and pinned him on the nail on the back of the painting. He made me feel extremely sick about such a thing. Since then, I’ve felt it’s no fun to live in a strange country with people like that and muddle through. It’s not as interesting as returning to my country and fighting Jiang Fangcheng’s family myself.”
Bai Qi paused as he listened, then turned sideways and gently hugged Xi Chengyun.
Aunty and Uncle were still so busy to this day.
And at that time, Xi-laoshi had just lost his mother, with Father Jiang’s presence equating to absence.
He softly exclaimed, “Xi-laoshi is awesome ah, resolute and sensible……” He thought and added, “Clean and beautiful.”
‘No.’
‘Qi Qi, the clean and beautiful one is you.’
Xi Chengyun used one hand to support Bai Qi’s waist, then turned his head and kissed the top of his head quickly before moving away.
At the other end, Adolph climbed out of the water.
He sat on the edge of the lakeshore in a disoriented state and poured out water from his cell phone, borrowing the bodyguard’s cell phone to continue making calls.
“I heard him compliment YUN on his interesting experience. Are people who fall in love blind?……”
Xi Chengyun returned to his country and met his treasure.
He walked out of the darkness.
While they stayed there forever.
