Number One Ugly Husband

5. Dad?

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

After returning to the hut and numbering off, Bao Ye was delivered to the factory by a big truck.

Deacon Lin sneered at the leaving truck, “What a group of trash, how could they fail to catch one little slave?”

Deacon Zeng beside him squinted, “The ugly slave today acted a bit unusual. He moves quickly and becomes bold now. He even didn’t fear to be thrown from such a high place, and on contrary, he coped with it so smoothly.”

The ugly slave in their eyes was too clumsy to keep himself from falling down from the ladder, let alone climbing the building.

Deacon Lin mocked again, “You know, when facing death, people are easily to be triggered potential.”

“Makes sense.”

Bao Ye had no idea about them gossiping about him. Now he was sitting on the large truck, appreciating this big city called Gong. The buildings around were old and out of maintenance, with uneven ground and garbage all over. Besides, the pollution was severe, with black water in the river, and disgusting smell floating in the air.

On the highland in the distance, there was a prosperous place totally distinguished from here. It was filled with glowing skyscrapers, reflecting golden lights under the sun, and standing there like a heaven in the slaves’ eyes.

This was the joy place for those slave owners. No slave in the truck wasn’t looking at that direction. Their eyes were filled with complicated feelings, fear, envy and yearning.

Before being sent to the factory, Bao Ye tried to extract his soul from this body again, but unfortunately failed again. so he could only drop that thought. He decided to collect the materials for time travel first, then get down to leave this body.

The truck stopped, and Bao Ye jumped off the truck first.

Deacon Zhu, the slave supervisor, shouted at him, “Ugly slave, your position has changed. Get on the car, I’m gonna take you to your new job.”

On hearing this, all slaves looked at Bao Ye with despise.

All people knew that this new position was a cushy job. But it was exchanged for his betraying his big brother’s best friends.

Du Peng snorted and jumped off the truck.

If it hadn’t been that the slave owners forbade the slaves fighting during work time, they had already beaten the ugly slave to death.

Bao Ye hopped onto the truck, and headed for his new working post with Deacon Zhu.

His workplace was a construction site, which was 2 kilometers far away from the slave owners’ paradise. The job description was cleaning, which was free from supervision and even free from punishment from the deacon if his cleaning was not so qualified.

Bao Ye was taken to the health department.

There were only three people in this department: A comely boy, a woman who was hurriedly feeding her kid, and a preoccupied man.

The man took Bao Ye here left after making a short introduction to them, and asked them to take Bao Ye to work.

“How could the deacon arrange such an ugly person to our department?” The boy, Nian Gao, said with scorn and vigilance, “Are the warts on your face contagious? If so, I will definitely ask the deacon to take you out of here and get us another one.”

His word showed arrogance and disdain. After all, people who could enter the health department were all relied on their nepotism with powerful person. Thus, the slaves on the construction site didn’t dare to offend the people in their department.

The woman cradling a baby was called Wang Qiao. In fear that Bao Ye’s ugly face might scare her child, she quickly turned around to cover her baby’s eyes from seeing him. The other man called Lao Liu was still dazing. It seemed that he was preoccupied by something in his mind.

“Have a try and you will know if it is contagious.” Bao Ye wiped his face and said. Nian Gao was frightened and hurried back into his room and warned, “Go away, do not get close to me, otherwise I will tell the deacon to kick you out.”

Bao Ye curved his lips, regardless of whether he could stay here or not. He turned back to Wang Qiao and greeted, “Hello, Sis Wang, what is my job here?”

But it seemed that Wang Qiao hadn’t heard him at all. She anxiously kept on feeding her baby, but no matter how hard she tried, her baby refused to open the mouth to eat. Besides, the baby looked inert and dull, just like losing its soul.

Bao Ye immediately saw what the problem was as he cast a glance at the baby, “Sis Wang, have your baby been frightened before?”

Wang Qiao turned to him immediately, “How do you know?”

“Your baby should be suffering from the soul separation syndrome. If you call your baby’s name loudly in the midnight for 49 times, he will be fine.”

“Soul separation?” Wang Qiao had never heard about this illness before.

“Sis Wang, he is a scum, you can’t believe any of his words.” Nian Gao ran out and said, “You have no idea about what bad things he had done before. He grabbed other people’s credit, murdered other’s wife, broke other’s leg, and did all the evil things because his brother is a top-level slave. Did you know that? The reason why he can enter our department is that he sold out his big brother’s buddies in exchange for this opportunity of working here! He can betray everyone as long as it is good for himself! Sis Wang, what he told you just now may get your baby killed!”

He had already inquired about Bao Ye when he knew that someone would join them.

On hearing the evil history of the ugly slave, Wang Qiao stepped back for a distance, and stared at Bao Ye vigilantly.

Lao Liu’s mind was called back by their noise. He looked at Bao Ye and stunned for a while. “New here? What’s your name? Haven’t walked around yet, right? Let’s go, I will show you around.”

Nian Gao uttered exasperatedly, “Lao Liu, have you heard what I said?”

“What did you say?” Lao Liu was at a loss, and he didn’t want to listen his words, “Talk to me when I am back, please.”

Nian Gao was almost furious to death, “I won’t talk to you anymore.”

Picking up the garbage shove and broom, Lao Liu left the department with Bao Ye. He told him, “There is not many places to be cleaned on the construction site, we are mainly responsible for this building, sometimes we may drive to the construction site to clean the garbage there.”

They came to the parking lot downstairs and found their garbage truck. Lao Liu asked Bao Ye, “Can you drive?”

Taking out his keys, Lao Liu got onto the truck, but found out that Bao Ye didn’t follow up. He turned around doubtfully, only to see Bao Ye was staring dully at the front without moving at all.

He looked at the direction where Bao Ye was looking at, and saw two young men walking out of the gate towards them, they were chatting and laughing.

And the next second, Lao Liu heard Bao Ye exclaim, “Dad!”
