DABGBTF 12
by starlightxelXie Zheng scowled. “Who are you talking to?”
The pomelo-flavored pheromones crushed over overwhelmingly, wrapping Xie Zheng up completely. This was a bloodless confrontation1A historical idiom meaning to win a battle without a single sword being stained with blood. Here, it refers to the intense, invisible clash of Alpha pheromones meant to force submission without throwing a physical punch. between alphas, and Xie Zheng’s forehead immediately broke out in sweat.
He immediately used his pheromones to protect himself. The strong scent of smoked pepper mixed with the clear fragrance of pomelo, making the smell inside the car inexplicably weird.
It was like some old farmer’s orchard had been set on fire.
Lu Lu didn’t speak, pursing his lips and reaching his hand toward Xie Zheng.
Xie Zheng sensed his movement and originally wanted to dodge, but unfortunately, it was still crowded inside the car, so he was still grabbed squarely by Lu Lu in one grasp.
Xie Zheng frowned. “Let go of me!”
Xie Zheng hadn’t thrown hands2Literally “moved hands,” which is a common euphemism for getting into a physical fight. in many years, but that didn’t mean he had forgotten how. With daggers drawn3An idiom meaning “with swords drawn and bows bent.” It perfectly describes an atmosphere of extreme tension right before a fight breaks out., the corners of his lips hooked and he looked at Lu Lu; even at a time like this, Xie Zheng still felt that Lu Lu’s well-behaved yet sharp facial features truly suited his tastes.
If they really ended up fighting in a moment, he wouldn’t hold back. However, Lu Lu propped himself up, raised his head, and kissed Xie Zheng—warm lips sealed Xie Zheng’s lips. It wasn’t a kiss filled with anger, but rather very sticky and intimate.
Lu Lu’s other hand lifted Xie Zheng upwards, and then made him go down heavily.
His body, one step ahead of Xie Zheng, recalled the feeling of being touched by Lu Lu, and reacted. He also clearly felt the young man’s changes.
“You f*cking, you f*cking, you…”
Xie Zheng grabbed the hair in front of Lu Lu’s forehead, stimulated to the point that the veins on the back of his hand bulged. He let out two low pants, his voice going hoarse. “Behave!”
Lu Lu pushed his sports shirt up to the collar, his lips trailing downwards along Xie Zheng’s neck.
Xie Zheng reached back into the drawer to grab the lube. However, his hand only reached halfway before he was forced to stop. “…Ugh, f*ck…”
Xie Zheng’s expression mixed pain and pleasure. He felt the fabric of Lu Lu’s pants, which was a bit rough.
Lu Lu adjusted the seat forward a bit, giving Xie Zheng no time to react. Xie Zheng felt the back of his head hitting the car roof again and again, making “thump thump” sounds.
Fortunately, it wasn’t a time of high foot traffic right now—no one was walking around the parking lot. Otherwise, they would definitely notice this violently shaking car.
Deep in his lower abdomen, that uncomfortable sensation that made him want to dry heave started to appear again, like something was being pried open—both sharp and stimulating.
Xie Zheng opened his mouth, only able to let out short syllables from deep within his throat.
It felt so f*cking good it could kill.
“Ring—“
Notification sounds ringing continuously like a death warrant. Xie Zheng’s whole body tensed up, the muscles in his chest and lower abdomen beginning to spasm uncontrollably. He bit down hard on Lu Lu’s shoulder. “Xiao Lu… you little bastard…”
Xie Zheng climaxed for a full half-minute before he remembered to grab his phone. Lu Lu found the loudly ringing phone under the seat and handed it to Xie Zheng.
Xie Zheng opened the drawer, threw the wet wipes inside onto Lu Lu. Lu Lu pulled out a few sheets, quickly helping clean both of them up.
Xie Zheng was still sitting on Lu Lu, too lazy and unwilling to move, his expression full of satiety.
He unlocked his phone and saw that Hu Qizhi had sent him a message. He had met the person Xie Zheng had always wanted to get to know at the golf course in the south of the city.
He didn’t hide his messaging from Lu Lu. Xie Zheng originally planned to dutifully take Lu Lu back to school before heading over, but Lu Lu said, “Uncle Xie, I can just take the bus back to school with my classmates later.”
Xie Zheng said, “That works too.”
Xie Zheng felt for a cigarette. Lu Lu took the lighter from his hand and helped light it for him.
Xie Zheng fed him a puff of smoke, his brows and eyes relaxing.
He had a bad temper, but just now, right when he was starting to get angry, he was serviced so comfortably that that bit of anger vanished along with it.
Lu Lu helped tie a bow on the drawstring of Xie Zheng’s pants. He leaned close to Xie Zheng and gently asked, “Uncle Xie, can I discuss something with you?”
Xie Zheng raised his eyebrows looking at him, signaling Lu Lu to continue.
Lu Lu held up two fingers. “Two years.”
“Uncle Xie, don’t look for anyone else during these two years, okay?”
Xie Zheng’s sword-like eyebrows raised a bit higher, feeling somewhat surprised. Lu Lu not wanting anyone else by his side, it wasn’t that he couldn’t understand. When there are too many people, conflicts easily arise. Moreover, health and safety issues are hard to guarantee. Currently, Xie Zheng had no plans to look for anyone else besides Lu Lu anyway.
Just why would it be two years?
A period of time that was neither long nor short.
Yet immediately after, Xie Zheng thought of another thing.
Lu Lu was a sophomore this year. If he didn’t plan to pursue further studies, he would graduate in two years. By then, the sea would be broad enough for fish to leap, and Lu Lu could rely on himself to make his way in society.
Xie Zheng suddenly felt displeased.
It wasn’t out of possessiveness. As a boss, finding out that his employee was riding a donkey while looking for a horse, of course he would be displeased.
He lost some interest and deliberately said, “What if by then you fall in love with me and refuse to abide by the agreement?”
Lu Lu was stunned for a moment, then started to laugh.
He said, “Then I’ll just have to be thick-skinned and beg Uncle to only like me.”
Somehow, these words ended up pleasing Xie Zheng. He finally smiled, but didn’t agree right away either, only saying, “We will talk about it later.”
He moved from the passenger seat back to the driver’s seat, smiling wickedly as he reached out to tap the corner of Lu Lu’s mouth. “It’s not wiped clean here.”
Lu Lu froze, his ears immediately showing a tendency to turn red. He hurriedly pulled out another wet wipe, wiping his face all over as if washing it.
Seeing him finish wiping, Xie Zheng hooked his finger at him. “Come here.”
The two kissed intimately in the car for a while, the sun having shifted its position at some unknown time, shining over from a diagonal angle. Xie Zheng’s fingers were threaded into Lu Lu’s soft hair, pinching the back of Lu Lu’s neck like handling an animal—with a somewhat forceful strength, but it didn’t hurt; it was very comfortable.
Xie Zheng had kissed enough and let go of Lu Lu. “Go.”
Lu Lu got out of the car. Xie Zheng lowered his head to reply to Hu Qizhi’s message when he suddenly heard the car window being knocked on. He looked up and saw Lu Lu.
Xie Zheng rolled down the car window. “What’s wrong?”
“Actually, Mashi Mountain is quite fun.” Lu Lu said, “Let’s come play together again next time.”
Xie Zheng: “…Do you like mountain climbing that much?”
“Not climbing mountains is fine too.” Lu Lu said, “Uncle Xie, let’s go out and play together next time.”
Xie Zheng understood. “Want to go on a date with Uncle?”
“Mm.”
“Wait until there’s a chance.”
This time was exactly when the classmates came down the mountain to gather. Cui Songbai saw Lu Lu. “Xiao Lu, where did you run off to just now? You didn’t even take your bag.”
“Just wandered around a bit.” Lu Lu took his backpack and put it on. Someone then shoved a very huge plum into his hand. “Given by the grandma at the tea shop, it’s very fresh. You have a taste of it.”
Lu Lu dug out another piece of bread from his bag, taking a bite of plum and a bite of bread, burying his head in earnest eating.
“Look how hungry our child is.” Cui Songbai looked at Lu Lu with the gaze of an old mother. “Eat a couple of bites less, later Dawang4Literally translates to “Great King.” said he’s taking us to eat stew.”
Lu Lu acknowledged, but felt the remaining half was hard to hold, so he ultimately finished both the bread and the big plum anyway. He then felt around in his bag for water and a small medicine bottle, poured out two pills, and swallowed them with water.
A car turned out from the corner, and someone among the classmates immediately got excited. “We actually have this kind of car here??”
“It’s modified!! Look, the streamlining is a bit different! Holy sh*t, this sound, they definitely added cylinders, right?”
Lu Lu recognized it was Xie Zheng’s car.
His understanding of cars was limited to getting a driver’s license. He didn’t understand car brands. He had searched for Xie Zheng’s car online and was almost blinded by the string of numbers at the end.
When the car passed by this group of people, the horn honked briefly, as if greeting someone. Lu Lu watched Xie Zheng’s car leave.
The classmate was left wanting more. “I wonder who the car owner is.”
Lu Lu thought that he happened to know who the car owner was—just now, he had sent the car owner to the clouds on the passenger seat, and even left finger marks on the car owner’s waist.
For the next few days, Xie Zheng was socializing.
Breaking into a new social circle is never easy. Xie Zheng suffered quite a bit in his early years. Fortunately, he finally didn’t have to feel so stifled anymore. Most of the people who made him feel stifled back then were now sitting on equal footing with him, and some had already left the industry.
When you become powerful, no one dares to bully you anymore. Actually, what’s the difference between being a boss and being a hooligan? In reality, both speak with their fists.
At the end of April, Xie Zheng’s mother contacted him.
Father Xie and Mother Xie had clearly been asking around for Xie Zheng’s whereabouts and recent situation since the very first day he left home, but this was surprisingly the first time they contacted Xie Zheng directly.
Xie Zheng answered the phone. “Mom.”
Mother Xie asked straight to the point, “Where are you? Are you still planning to come back?”
The tone was unceremonious, but for Mother Xie, it could already be considered yielding.
However, just yielding was far from enough.
Xie Zheng laughed.
“What are you laughing at? Speak.”
“Nothing, Mom. I have things to do later, so I won’t talk for now.”
Mother Xie was stunned, about to say something more, but Xie Zheng had already hung up the call one step ahead.
Xie Zheng indeed wasn’t lying—he was getting ready to head out right now. Those bosses were in high spirits today, saying they wanted to go fishing at the reservoir.
However, because of this call, Xie Zheng’s mood began to turn terrible. He told Hu Qizhi that he had something to do and pushed off today’s itinerary.
When annoyed, people just want to find something happy to do. Xie Zheng turned on the TV and watched for a while, then suddenly grabbed his phone and sent Lu Lu a message: What are you doing?
[Stupid Deer]: In class
[Stupid Deer]: So hungry, so hungry, so hungry
In Xie Zheng’s mind, he suddenly recalled the way Lu Lu gnawed on bread while guarding the trash can last time.
[Xie]: Come out for dinner tonight?
Lu Lu replied very quickly: Okay!
Xie Zheng wasn’t particular about food; driving around, he casually chose a restaurant that looked pretty good.
Xie Zheng ordered red wine and asked Lu Lu, “Want to drink?”
Lu Lu shook his head.
Xie Zheng was amused by his serious and proper appearance. “Such a good kid.”
This was an internet-famous Western restaurant. The scenery was admittedly not bad, but the prices were also considerable. If one wanted to eat their fill, it would require spending nearly a third of the monthly salary Xie Zheng gave Lu Lu.
Lu Lu looked back and forth at the menu, unable to choose a single dish for a long time. He finally asked Xie Zheng, “Uncle Xie, let’s go eat hotpot?”
Xie Zheng leaned back in his chair. “Cut the crap. Laozi just wants to eat some elegant foreigner food5A funny and deliberately uncultured way for Xie Zheng to describe high-end Western dining. today.”
Lu Lu: “…”
These words were truly not elegant in the slightest.
Lu Lu ultimately ordered a glass of grapefruit juice and a pan-fried steak. Xie Zheng took a sip of wine and suddenly asked him, “Does your family dote on you quite a bit?”

@Deer: 1/7306This connects back to the previous chapter where Lu Lu asked Xie Zheng for “two years.” This implies Lu Lu is counting down the days of their agreement.
