Meanwhile, three young men who had been sitting to the right rear were whispering among themselves.
”Brother Hang, Wang Jingxiao has stepped down, shouldn’t we go and confront him?”
The young man, known as Brother Hang, sported a mohawk and twirled a silver-gray lighter in his hand, his eyes fixed on the VIP seats in front.
Hearing this, he glanced at his old enemy who had hurriedly stepped down from the stage: “I’ve spotted a good one. Let him go tonight.”
The other two playboys followed his gaze and asked, “Which one?”
”Damn!” One of the blond-haired men exclaimed in surprise when he saw who was sitting there. The other black-haired man also immediately noticed the problem and his mouth dropped open.
Mohawk scoffed, thinking to himself, “They’re scared just because he is Gu Shaocheng’s mistress? They really are two good-for-nothings who can’t handle anything.” That’s why he never revealed the tasks assigned by President Wen to outsiders.
The blond and black-haired men exclaimed in unison, “Brother Hang, are you going to mess with Gu Shaocheng?!”
Mohawk’s hand trembled, and the lighter cap pinched his finger, causing him to gasp in pain and preventing him from immediately denying it.
Blondie started analyzing: “Gu Shaocheng is quite good-looking, but I’m afraid that when he goes crazy, even the medicine won’t be able to control him.”
The man with the mohawk[1]The man with the mohawk hairstyle jQuery('#footnote_plugin_tooltip_1305004_1_1').tooltip({ tip: '#footnote_plugin_tooltip_text_1305004_1_1', tipClass: 'footnote_tooltip', effect: 'fade', predelay: 0, fadeInSpeed: 200, delay: 400, fadeOutSpeed: 200, position: 'top center', relative: true, offset: [-7, 0], }); smacked the blond guy on the head with a lighter: “Go to hell, shut up! I’m talking about his mistress!”
”…”
Gu Shaocheng was definitely not going to make a move, so the three of them waited anxiously for Yu Yuan to leave the table alone. Watching him happily eat the fruit with the wine stains on it, the mohawk-haired man showed a satisfied expression.
This stuff is treated with a mixed liquor; it doesn’t taste strong, but it’s very potent. Even a seasoned drinker like him couldn’t handle such a large tray of it… He was already prepared to abduct the drunken beauty.
The three waited a while longer, and seeing that the little beauty was about to eat the whole tray, they decided to mix the powder into the wine beforehand, just to be on the safe side. All that was left was to wait for the little beauty to run out of bladder.
After waiting and waiting, Gu Shaocheng, who hadn’t touched a thing, stood up first.
Knowing he was in the wrong, Yu Yuan immediately grabbed the man’s forearm and mouthed pitifully, “You promised you wouldn’t leave me out of our lovey-dovey moments…”
The sticky feeling from the juice made Gu Shaocheng very uncomfortable. His face, his side, and the affected side of his neck and shirt were filled with the sweet smell of alcohol. If he felt it carefully, the splashed juice seemed to have spread to his lower abdomen… When he turned his head, his gaze towards the culprit was inevitably tinged with anger.
This anger contained the resentment of being interrupted, the embarrassment of being splattered, and the treasure trove of fallacies that flashed through his mind.
Fortunately, Gu Shaocheng still had his senses. Despite his dark and cold expression, he didn’t forget Yu Yuan’s injured hip. He bent down slightly to help him up, and the two left the VIP seats one after the other.
Yu Yuan’s face was flushed with the effects of the alcohol. After standing up, he felt unsteady on his feet, thinking that his hip injury had affected his legs. So he gripped Gu Shaocheng’s arm tightly, afraid that his legs would falter and he would be left behind.
When they were almost at the restroom, they didn’t even stop, let alone separate. The mohawk-haired man and his two henchmen watched as they swept past them like two gusts of wind.
A faint, amused exclamation lingered in the wind: “Shao Cheng, look over there, there really is someone with a rooster comb hairstyle! So anime-like!”
Before he could finish speaking, a cold gaze swept over the three of them. Feeling guilty, the blond-haired man tilted his head back and chugged the spiked liquor.
Black Hair’s mouth dropped open in shock, and Mohawk’s first words, “You’re fucking crazy!” drew countless stares.

Gu Shaocheng took Yu Yuan in the elevator straight to the top-floor suite.
Once inside the suite and the door was closed, Yu Yuan finally felt relieved enough to let go of Gu Shaocheng’s hand.
Gu Shaocheng first took off his suit jacket, unbuttoning it as he walked towards the bathroom. When he took off his shirt, he discovered that Yu Yuan’s fingerprints, left by Yu Yuan as he clung to him all the way, were branded on his right forearm.
Recalling Yu Yuan’s appalling behavior, he felt the pain in his temples become even more pronounced. He quickly pulled off his trousers and went into the shower.
*
Yu Yuan entered the room and first spread out in a starfish shape. He had never drunk alcohol before and never expected that the sweet and refreshing wine-soaked fruit would have such a strong aftereffect.
My head was spinning, my cheeks were burning, and every breath I exhaled seemed to carry sparks.
Yu Yuan threw off his suit jacket, pulled the blanket over himself and fell asleep, but before he could fall asleep, his painfully full bladder made him get out of bed.
Meanwhile, Gu Shaocheng was taking a cold shower.
He will need to make an appearance when his mother’s work is auctioned later, since no matter which auction house provides the item, there must be a story about how he cherishes it and how many years of hard work he has put into it.
However, his painting is the highlight of this auction and will be the last one, so he has plenty of time. After washing, he should have time to take his medication.
Just as he was thinking this, the bathroom door was suddenly kicked open with a “bang”.
Yu Yuan, his face as red as a tomato, staggered towards the bathroom, leaning against the wall, completely ignoring the tall, naked man standing in the shower room whom he dared not offend when awake.
He was so drunk that his exquisite and expensive oatmeal-colored shirt had been rolled into a crumpled rag on the bed. When he was sober, he knew to use his skill to avoid the injury to his right hip, but now, in his daze, he walked on instinct like a zombie.
Gu Shaocheng’s brow twitched as he watched the man, who was 1.7 meters tall, walk towards the toilet. He fiddled with his waist haphazardly for a while, but the belt, buttons, and zipper remained untouched.
But in his mind, it seemed he had already succeeded, because his next move was to reach out and grasp a handful of air in front of him, raise his chin slightly and pout his lips, habitually blowing the horn to release the flood.
Gu Shaocheng: “…”
Gu Shaocheng felt his head buzzing. Although he hadn’t spent much time with Yu Yuan, he had already accumulated enough experience. His intuition told him that if he let Yu Yuan urinate in his pants, he might be the one who ended up in trouble.
Gu Shaocheng took another deep breath and yanked open the glass door to the shower room.
With a loud “bang,” Yu Yuan trembled in fright.
Only then did he groggily turn his head towards the shower room, his squinted eyes suddenly widening.
Gu Shaocheng narrowed his long eyes slightly. So he knows fear after all? Looks like he’s not completely drunk and stupid yet.
The next moment, Yu Yuan shouted with a slurred speech, “How could you peep at people using the toilet! You’re a pervert!”
Gu Shaocheng: “…”
Gu Shaocheng’s temples throbbed with anger, and he suppressed his rage as he said, “Are you planning to pee in your pants?”
Yu Yuan tilted his head, took a moment to process what he was seeing, and then looked down at his hand that was gripping the air: “Hmm… no wonder it felt so light today…”
He tried again and found that he had more and more fingers, but none of them could poke the right spot. Yu Yuan tried to shake off the afterimage in front of him, but his body swayed and he almost fell into the toilet.
He realized he really couldn’t do it, so Yu Yuan simply reached down to the ground with his hands that were supporting him on the toilet, then got down on all fours like a gorilla and went to Gu Shaocheng for help.
Having lived for over twenty years, Gu Shaocheng had never seen such a remarkable person who could demonstrate biodiversity on his own.
He simply didn’t have the energy to argue with the drunkard. After the man, leaning against the glass door, regained his upright posture, Gu Shaocheng bent down and helped him undo his belt, trousers, and zipper: “Can you take off your underwear by yourself?”
Yu Yuan looked at his twenty or so fingers and honestly shook his head. He even gagged because of the excessive shaking. Gu Shaocheng had been tricked by him before, so he quickly pulled down his boxer shorts and was about to close the glass door.
As a result, Yu Yuan’s body went limp like cotton. Gu Shaocheng pulled his shorts, and Yu Yuan fell down as well, kneeling directly in the shower.
The oversized square showerhead above ensures that every corner of the shower room can feel the refreshing water flow.
Yu Yuan tilted his head back, unable to open his eyes, feeling the cold water splashing on his face, completely bewildered: “Why is there still rain here?”
Before Gu Shaocheng could react, Yu Yuan slid in and crawled between Gu Shaocheng’s legs, hugging his legs and huddling under his “big leaves” to avoid the rain.
Gu Shaocheng: “…”
So shocked was I that I forgot all about my headache for a moment, and only one thought remained in my mind:
—Is this fucking not an illusion?
Half an hour later, Gu Shaocheng finally managed to drag Yu Yuan, who was wrapped in a bath towel, out of the bathroom before his patience ran out.
The spare clothes he left in the car had been delivered, but because Yu Yuan refused to let go, and kept muttering things like “Left me behind,” “We agreed to show affection,” and “Don’t be angry,” Gu Shaocheng’s legs went numb from the lack of blood flow after being held tightly by Yu Yuan for a while.
Perhaps it was the deeply ingrained instruction to change nannies for showing affection, or perhaps it was the insecurity he felt upon entering the banquet hall that made Yu Yuan see Gu Shaocheng, the only familiar person he knew, as a lifeline. Under the influence of alcohol, Yu Yuan clung to him so tightly that if Gu Shaocheng dared to abandon him and leave the room, he would follow after him, even if it meant crawling.
Ignoring the previous events, this was the first time Gu Shaocheng had been “valued” like this, so much so that he focused most of his attention on getting rid of this little rice cake, and even forgot about his headache.
After a while, Gu Shaocheng lay on the bed, with Yu Yuan still clinging tightly to his arm. He had managed to take his medicine not long ago, and the fatigue that followed quickly overwhelmed him…

Before the charity gala even ended, it had already gone viral on social media.
One reason is that the much-anticipated Gu Shaocheng disappeared midway through the auction with his new boyfriend, and he didn’t even reappear when Gu Lanzhi’s works were auctioned.
Secondly, there was a major error in the display of Gu Lanzhi’s works. The auction list listed Gu Lanzhi’s early work “Angel”, but the auctioned work was her later surreal and dark work “Evil Seed”.
Of course, the auction of “Angel” was still conducted according to the original plan. However, this oversight startled many people present, as the bloody and desperate scene was too gruesome.
Gu Shaocheng was not surprised when he received the message. Wen Ping would definitely not have prepared just one or two moves if he wanted to drive him crazy. Several images flashed through his mind, and his eyes turned cold.
The person on the other end of the phone asked in a low voice, “Wen Ping is definitely planning to pass the buck to your father this time. Do you need my help…?”
Gu Shaocheng interrupted coldly, “No need, this is just right.” He enjoyed watching dogs fight.

Yu Yuan pressed his face against his arm, mumbling incoherently. Because his mouth and nose were stuffy, his voice inevitably had a nasal quality, making him sound pitiful.
Not long after, Gu Shaocheng felt his arm get wet, and a hint of unreadable emotion appeared in his half-closed eyes.
The damp, moist sensation became even more pronounced, and Gu Shaocheng slightly turned his head to look at Yu Yuan’s fluffy hair.
His flushed cheeks and slightly damp sideburns clung to his arm with complete trust, and warm breath seeped into his body through his clothes.
”You really don’t want me to leave?” he asked softly, almost inaudibly, as if murmuring in a dream.
For someone accustomed to the cold, a brief touch of warmth only amplifies how the chill penetrates to the bone. Moreover, he knows the person before him has ulterior motives, and even his true nature after drinking is greatly diminished… Yu Yuan had just taken a bunch of potent drugs, limiting his mental state, and for a moment his mind was hazy and confused, generating many inexplicable thoughts.
Yu Yuan noticed that Gu Shaocheng was no longer running away, and the pressure on his hands loosened considerably. Feeling uncomfortable with his face feeling stuffy, he slightly raised his face, revealing the remaining water marks on his skin.
His eyes were tightly closed and dry, but his rosy lips reflected a glistening moisture. A silly smile would occasionally appear on his lips, just like someone savoring a delicious meal in a dream with drool on their lips.
Oh……
Although he was used to the unexpected things Yu Yuan brought him, seeing the person in front of him sleeping soundly with his head tilted back like a little pig after all that fussing, Gu Shaocheng remained silent for a moment, then suddenly pinched Yu Yuan’s cheeks with one hand, making him look like a little chicken beak.
He played with it, feeling good about it, and it seemed to have a certain effect on promoting drug absorption. The analgesic effect was particularly obvious today, and he left two red finger marks on Yu Yuan’s cheeks.
Disturbed in his half-awake state, Yu Yuan frowned, opened his eyes slightly, then quickly closed them again. His furrowed brows relaxed, and he murmured softly, “Hmm… as long as you’re happy…” After saying that, he subconsciously patted his chest with his fist.
Gu Shaocheng paused, his complex and unfathomable dark eyes falling on Yu Yuan’s exceptionally obedient and soft face. After a long while, he pushed him away again.
Yu Yuan immediately transformed into a pressure bandage and tightened it around his arm. Gu Shaocheng simply placed a pillow between the two of them to prevent the “tears” from the corners of Yu Yuan’s mouth from falling onto his arm again.
