Shi Yi was the first to notice Yin Moshu.

The man standing at the door, wearing a pink turtleneck shirt and gray slacks, stood casually and upright.

Judging from her years of tailoring clothes and working with models, he was at least 187cm tall, with broad shoulders, long legs, and clear body lines.

The eyebrows and eyes were well-shaped, and the facial bones were well-developed. Whether it’d be on the big screen or in fashion magazines, he had that overwhelming advantage over everyone else.

When he came in, the first thing he looked at was Gu Jinmian.

Shi Yi’s eyes brightened slightly, she was satisfied, and said with a smile, “This is Moshu?”

“Mrs. Gu.”

“Why are you still calling me Mrs. Gu? Like this, regarding me as a stranger.” She smiled and said, “Look, my name is Shi Yi, you’re born to call me Aunt Shi.”

Gu Jinmian: “…….”

Yin Moshu followed the good advice as naturally as a river following its course, and said with a smile, “Aunt Shi.”

Ji Nan pursed his lower lip, standing there awkwardly.

He had been calling her Aunt Gu since he was a child, he had no idea when she was called like that. After so many years, he had kept on calling her like this.

He didn’t think it was wrong before, but now hearing what Shi Yi said, and thinking about the title “Aunt Gu”, it’s like putting Shi Yi’s value on the Gu family.

“Moshu, come here.” Shi Yi said with a smile.

Yin Moshu sat down opposite her like Gu Jinmian.

Shi Yi asked, “Are you two in love?”

She stared at Yin Moshu intently, with anticipation and tension in her eyes.

Yin Moshu glanced at Gu Jinmian, he still had a paralyzed face with no expression, but the person and the face seemed to have been separated.

–That night the butler said: “Madam has always been very guilty. She thinks that she should not have made the Young Master wear skirts and braids just because she wanted a daughter, which made the Young Master’s gender cognition vague when he was young. She thinks the Young Master who hung himself on that tree Ji Nan and became this gloomy and autistic appearance, was more than half of her responsibility.” 

Yin Moshu nodded.

Shi Yi smiled at once.

She took Gu Jinmian’s hand, and Yin Moshu’s hand, and put them together.

“Great, I’m really, really happy.”

There was an undetectable sob in the voice, if the two of them hadn’t been sitting so close, they might not have heard it.

Gu Jinmian opened his mouth, but was unable to say a negative word.

He knew it was wrong, but looking at Shi Yi’s eyes moist with joy, he couldn’t speak the truth.

Bays of being a parent.

How can he not guess?

Shi Yi was spoiled by her family since she was a child, and after she got married, she became a beautiful and young loving wife, admired by thousands of people in the business circle, and her three sons also loved and doted on her. Her life was lovely and extravagant.

She rushed back from abroad on purpose, and came to this uninhabited wilderness overnight.

Simply wanting to confirm whether her son was really in a relationship, and that he would no longer live in a miserable state because of Ji Nan.

When receiving an affirmative answer from the other party, she almost cried with joy.

A mother’s love for her child, yes, it’s like this.

The hands of the two were pulled together by Shi Yi, and Gu Jinmian felt that Yin Moshu grasped his hand.

As if to appease.

Gu Jinmian turned his head aside, “Don’t you know everything? Why still ask.”

Shi Yi smiled with bent eyebrows. Gu Jinmian, who was embarrassed, was so cute.

She let go, stood in front of Gu Jinmian, hugged his head and caressed it, “Why is my son so cute!”

Gu Jinmian: “….”

The ear under Shi Yi’s wrist turned red quietly.

She poked her head in front of Yin Moshu again, “My son’s boyfriend is so handsome too!”

The atmosphere of the three people here was pleasant and warm, while the two people standing on the other side were silent and awkward.

Ji Nan felt that Yin Moshu, this little star, should not be the one who should enjoy this kind of harmony.

Their Ji family and the Gu family were friends, his mother would take him to the Gu family to play since he was a child, and Shi Yi would also bring his two sons to play at the Ji household.

What is this sudden appearance of Yin Moshu?

It’s out of place in this picture.

However, Ji Ming was terror-stricken.

Gu Jinmian said that he had told his brothers.

As long as Ji Ming thought of Gu Xijun’s face, he couldn’t help being nervous.

He pushed Ji Nan, wanting Ji Nan, who was close to the Gu family, to talk, at least to ease the atmosphere of the two families. As long as Shi Yi nodded, how could the young masters of the Gu family do anything to him?

Ji Nan knew what Ji Ming meant, he was very annoyed.

Shi Yi was already very dissatisfied with him, and two people were still urging him. Ji Ming asked him to help speak, and Hang Yuanting, who was dragged away by Director Lin, kept sending him messages, wanting to see Shi Yi.

After reaching a certain status in the entertainment industry, stars would have to start fighting for fashion resources. Hang Yuanting had already won the best actor in a TV series, and could be honored as TV King, but his fashion resources had not been very good, especially in the area of international high-end luxury industry.

(t/n TV King-a title for the actor who wins the title of Best Actor in many awards)

His black fans and rival fans often ridicule him as “dirt”, “not advanced”, and “village star”.

He was eager to cooperate with those noble and glamorous brands.

And Shi Yi’s status in the fashion industry was matchless all over the country.

Let alone anything else, just her private dinner that was held every year at Fashion Week, all those who could enter were celebrities in the fashion circle, and it was the place Hang Yuanting had always wanted to go.

Therefore, even though he knew that Gu Jinmian hated him and that Shi Yi had a problem with him, he still wanted to see Shi Yi.

Ji Nan bit the bullet and said, “Gu, Aunt Shi, Hang Yuanting have always wanted to see you, and he has already arrived. You see…”

Ji Ming glared at Ji Nan angrily.

He’s acting as such. It’s likely that he’ll be skinned by the Gu family brothers, but the other only wants to help his boyfriend and put the icing on the cake.

When Hang Yuanting comes, can the atmosphere still be good? Not to mention the mother and son pair being angry, the three brothers of the Gu family will kill him today.

The harmonious atmosphere was interrupted by Ji Nan.

Shi Yi looked at Ji Nan in surprise and bewilderment, as if she didn’t understand why Ji Nan was still here.

Ji Nan was even more embarrassed.

“Okay.” Shi Yi said, “In this case, let him come in.”

Hang Yuanting was quite considerate, he wore clothes designed by Shi Yi, even the watch and cuffs were of the same brand, and it was a suit that suited his temperament very well. The person and clothes matched together, which appeared incomparable handsome.

He smiled at Shi Yi, “President Shi, I finally saw you today.”

Gu Jinmian thought–Hang Yuanting is really capable of reaching such a height. If he hates her son so much and knows that his mother doesn’t like him, he should be embarrassed and unwilling to see my mother and ask my mother to do something about it.

But not only did he meet her, but he was also smiling, and he could see admiration and yearning in his eyes.

In other words, he is really shameless.

“Hello, you are Ji Nan’s boyfriend, right?” Shi Yi looked him up, and said before he could speak, “It just so happens that I have something to tell you.”

Shi Yi grabbed the wrists of Gu Jinmian and Yin Moshu again, and put their hands together.

“You see this, this is my son and his boyfriend, they’re more than suited for each other.” Shi Yi said.

Gu Jinmian: “……..”

The others didn’t expect Shi Yi to say that, and they were all taken aback.

Shi Yi showed off a little, and said seriously to Ji Nan and Hang Yuanting, “You don’t have to worry about Mianmian pestering you and causing damage in the future.”

Then, she looked at Hang Yuanting, “Before, on the surface, Mianmian had really wronged you, you are innocent, and he has done bad things to you many times.”

“If those were true on the surface, as an apology and compensation, I’m willing to lead you into the circle and help you set up a connection.” She said so, but her eyes were giving off a warning.

The two mentions of “on the surface” had already revealed the meaning of the words.

Then, she looked at Ji Nan again, “Mianmian doesn’t need to apologize to you.”

“Ji Nan, you can be regarded as the one I watched growing up. Feel your conscience and tell me, has Mianmian ever done anything to hurt you?”

Ji Nan pursed his lips.

“What about you, have you ever done it?”

Ji Nan was speechless.

“That joke of that year, none of us had thought about it, but Mianmian secretly took it seriously in his heart. We can’t blame you for that, but you can’t blame him for being so young either.”

“Since then, he has regarded you as no worse than his own brother, and often follows you. Before you know you have someone you like, isn’t he a lovely brother?”

“And how did you treat him?” Shi Yi sneered, “After you knew what he was thinking, you didn’t guide him well. Instead, you threw his lunch box, called him to a small dark room, called him abnormal in public, and embarrassed him countless times.”

“I won’t forgive you. I have broken up with your mother, and you also don’t deserve to call me ‘Aunt’.”

“I didn’t mean it, those times…”

“I don’t care if you did it on purpose or not, this is simply my standpoint.” Shi Yi didn’t want to listen to his explanation, “Younger generation’s matters should be dealt with by the younger generation themselves, don’t come to see me again, go find Xijun if you want.”

“Let’s go.”

Ji Nan was so full of grievances that he couldn’t explain it, but his morals prevented him from arguing with Shi Yi. He couldn’t stay any longer.

He gritted his teeth and was about to turn around to leave when he inadvertently glanced at Yin Moshu, which made him startled by the look in his eyes.

He always had a strange feeling towards Yin Moshu, and his eyes would always fall on him involuntarily, taking notice of his behavior and opinions, and at the same time, he didn’t like him very much. He felt resistance and fear in his heart, like facing an unknown danger.

Just like now.

Yin Moshu’s eyes seemed to be fixed on him, and the darkness inside them gradually grew, which was a gloominess that he couldn’t understand.

Suddenly he smiled again, as if mocking himself.

Yin Moshu’s gaze moved away from Ji Nan and landed on Gu Jinmian’s face.

Gu Jinmian’s almond eyes were a little bigger than usual, and his lips were slightly parted, as if he had heard some big news, but on his paralyzed face, there was still a dumbfounded look.

****

On that dilapidated small park outside the campus, as spring turned to summer.

The dull little boy followed closely behind the young man for a long time.

The little boy was wearing tattered clothes, his face was dusty, but his eyes were unusually bright.

When he was about to step into the crowd, the young man turned his head and saw the bright smiling eyes on his blank face, and paused for a moment.

“Follow me closely and don’t get lost, got that?” he said gloomily.

The little boy nodded like pounding garlic, and patted the Teletubbies water bottle on his stomach.

“Big brother is different, even if the school uniform is the same, Mianmian will not be wrong.”

The young man grabbed the strap of his small water bottle and pulled it forward, with a very nasty smile on his face.

“Kid, remember, if you follow the wrong person, you will be bullied then cry.”

It turned out that human’s inferiority roots would always be there.

And in a morbid state, would take root and sprout.

Yin Moshu mocked himself, blinked his eyes, then saw Gu Jinmian staring at him intently.

When the little boy heard the young man’s words, he stared blankly at him.

The young man let go of his strap and continued walking.

The little boy stared intently at the young man’s back, and trotted to keep up with him.

The water was sloshing inside the small water bottle, as the little boy swayed in the sunset.

“Who are we following closely?”

“He Shumo.”

****

Gu Jinmian met Yin Moshu’s eyes and gave him a slightly apologetic smile.

After Ji Nan and the others left, Shi Yi continued to rub her son, and then praised Yin Moshu. She was so happy that she couldn’t express it. After talking to them for a long time, she was willing to go back to the hotel with the butler to rest.

Gu Jinmian breathed a sigh of relief.

“Yin Moshu, I’m sorry, we may not be able to ‘break up’ so soon.”

He couldn’t bear to tell his mother that he and Yin Moshu were fake.

I want to make her happy for a while.

He thought, it’s normal for couples to break up after a few months.

Even if they broke up at that time, Shi Yi should be able to accept it, at least she now knew that Gu Jinmian had really come out from Ji Nan and could fall in love normally.

It’s just that Yin Moshu had worked hard.

He didn’t say anything about signing a contract, instead, he simply said, “Yin Moshu, if you help me act, I’ll help you too.”

Yin Moshu didn’t respond to this, he looked at him, it was unknown what he was thinking, then said, “Aunt Shi is not so easy to cheat.”

“Then you? Work harder?” Gu Jinmian looked at him with beautiful eyes.

Very trusting, a little bit of anticipation, and glistening.

“Is it alright?” Seeing that Yin Moshu didn’t speak, Gu Jinmian moved closer and grabbed his arm.

Yin Moshu glanced at the hands on his arm calmly, and asked, “How powerful?”

“As much power as you can sell, I will also sell as much power as you can. The combination of our two powers is the true CP!”

The corner of Yin Moshu’s mouth subconsciously melted into a smile, and there was some teasing in his eyes, “Is there also so much power on that Adam’s apple?”

Gu Jinmian: “…….”

Looking at Gu Jinmian whose face was frozen in an instant, Yin Moshu lowered his head slightly before leaving, and said in a low voice, “It’s scarred.”

Gu Jinmian became stiffer at once.

When he realized that in his brain, he was thinking about what kind of scar on Yin Moshu’s Adam’s apple was formed, then he remembered Liu Mengmeng saying “you are so hot”.

Ah ah ah………..! 

He didn’t know whether it was embarrassment or some other emotion, but he was very restless.

I don’t know what to say to express it, so I simply——

He Bujin, you dog!
