Mama Gu stepped forward, grasped onto Cheng Jinyu's hand and looked at his face, "You know Tan Yiqing? You also look similar to him, what is your relationship with him?"
"And you?" Cheng Jinyu replied with a question.
Mama Gu spoke, "He was my college classmate. He is the person I really really liked."
Mama Gu spoke up to here, looked at the tense atmosphere all around, smiled and spoke. "Everyone, there's no need to be nervous. This is something that happened many years ago. I've already gotten over it."
"I knew him when I went to high school. During high school he was the most influential figure. Grew up well, had good achievements, personality was good, had self restraint and elegance; there was no girl at our school who didn't like him."
"It was because I liked him that I passed the entrance exam for the same university as him. Continued to like him during college, just kept on liking him."
Mama Gu having spoken to this point looked as though she was recalling the memories of that time. Her face unexpectedly had bit of shyness.
"Only that type of person, was not someone I could chase after. In our 4th year when we were going to graduate, I confessed, unfortunately he declined. At that time I desperately created a tantrum for a year in my house, so, so my family until now doesn't dare to mention this person in front of me."
Mama Gu spoke to here, smiled towards the surrounding relatives and spoke, "I early already let go. Besides he, he, he already early on was at…." Mama Gu spoke to here, eyes unexpectedly became red.
"But, fortunately at that time my parents were worried for me, scared I would kill myself, even more scared that I was insane, urged me to marry my husband. God treated me well. My husband was very forgiving of me, is very good to me. So, so in the end we fell in love with each other."
Mama Gu smiled and winked at Papa Gu, was just like a little girl. Papa Gu responded by nodding his head, like he was confirming what she said.
Gu Bokai spoke with a bit of embarrassment, "This kind of unrequited love dont speak of it anymore. It was also not a successful kind of unrequited love, saying it in the presence of this many people…"
Mama Gu responded without a care, "Who doesn't know about this? At that time for the sake of chasing Tan Yiqing, even dragged my father out. Afterward I did not chase Tan Yiqing, creating a good friendship between my father and him."
Gu Bokai placed his hand on his forehead, honestly did not know what exactly his father liked about his mom.
Mama Gu finished speaking about her situation then spoke, "Jinyu, we are a family. I already told you about my situation clearly, what about you? Are you Yiqing's…"
"No!" Cheng Jinyu immediately responded. He became aware that his sudden manner was too drastic and explained, "I just heard of him before. I was at the Chen Family for a very long period of time, heard his name many times. He is very excellent,….. Very excellent."
Tan Liyun had said, your father was very fortunate, the most influential figure at school, was the dream lover of many men and women. He would always be someone removed from the ordinary crowd, he would always be the target of admiration from everyone.
Tan Liyun said, the people who were secretly in love with your father at that time, seeing your appearance today, what will they think? His son was like trash!
Cheng Jinyu already returned to normal, "How could a person like me have any relation to him, there isn't, isn't."
The old man the whole time did not know what they were talking about, only continued to tug on Cheng Jinyu's hand and cry out, "Yiqing, Yiqing ah."
Mama Gu responded, "Dad, this really isn't Yiqing. He is Kaikai's bride, called Cheng Jinyu."
Gu Bokai, "Grandfather, he is my wife."
"Your wife?"
"Yes." Gu Boaki loudly yelled, elderly man was not able to hear well.
"He's not Yiqing, the one your mom likes? How did he turn into your wife?" The old grandfather was thoroughly confused.
"He's not Tan Yiqing, he's not!" Gu Bokai spoke.
The old man couldn't understand properly. He tugged on Cheng Jinyu's hand and drew closer. "You haven't changed, haven't changed a bit. Im old now, thoroughly old."
He, Cheng Jinyu, receiving this old man's hand, felt as if he could experience those friendly feelings from his father and him during those years.
The old man looked at Cheng Jinyu then looked at Gu Bokai, "Ok, support this marriage!"
Gu Bokai scratched his head, the old man fully could not understand his own words, "Grandfather, this is not Tan Yiqing, not the person mother liked. He is mine, mine."
"I know, I know, right now is yours." The old man unexpectedly showed a bit of a smiling expression, "Very good, it's your mother's turn to cry."
Mama Gu right now already wanted to cry, the old man's heart was genuinely big. Mother's secret love was married to her son? He could really think this up, who said that his mind was muddled.
The old man towards Cheng Jinyu, "You're older than Kaikai, will need to yield to him. Little child's bad temper, don't lower yourself to his level."
Cheng Jinyu sneered and replied with a black smile, "Of course, I am his uncle then."
"Ok you're his uncle then."
Gu Bokai felt his forehead ache, a good wife in an instant before his eyes turned into an uncle.
The old man's health was not good, saying these words hurriedly left.
Mama Gu once again called everyone to sit down and continue with dinner. It was no longer early, everyone carelessly ate and hurriedly left
Cheng Jinyu returned to the room, the top of his bed was completely covered with all the gifts he received today. Cheng Jinyu looked at the key, at the gold card, surprised to discover that there was actually no money.
Cheng Jinyu was annoyed as he discovered, sure enough it was a trap! There was no money, what was the point of these items? He would most likely not go for a beauty treatment, would also not go play golf, no money to go vacation,furthermore ，had no clothes to match this gold watch.
A moment ago he was thinking that these things were invaluable, now Cheng Jinyu completely felt that it had no use.
Gu Bokai opened the door and entered, "Why are you still not sleeping? Weren't you tired?"
"You came just in time, hurry and take all these things away. So to save me from seeing them and becoming troubled."
"I take them?They weren't given to me."
"Don't tell me that they were actually given to me." Cheng Jinyu replied with a frown.
Gu Bokai's expression sank, "You actually thought that? Don't tell me that you thought the entire family was putting on a show in front of you? Then when it was over, wanted all of it to be given back?"
"Isn't it this kind of play?" Cheng Jinyu feebly replied.
Gu Bokai was angry and picked up the long narrow pillow on the bed, ruthlessly smashed it on his head, "heartless thing", finished speaking turned around and left in a panting rage.
Cheng Jinyu was on top of the bed, the soft bed made him feel very comfortable. His entire body was fatigued and weakly got up.
He recalled his father Tan Yiqing, if he was still alive what would his life be like?
Wouldn't he be already graduated from college, found a not bad job. Although he wouldn't necessarily have a car but have a place to live. But would also be like the vast majority of office workers, every day scheduled to work from start to finish. Sometimes weekends would go watch a movie or travel.
Cheng Jinyu's hand undoubtedly grabbed the SLR camera on the bed, then reached out again to grab; grabbed onto all kinds of gold cards, VIP card. If father was still here, wouldn't these things have never come into contact with him.
Or perhaps he wouldn't even need these people to donate, he would have his own. His father was that outstanding, that kind of gentle and soft.
Cheng Jinyu's entire body shrunk into a ball, dizzily went to sleep.
He couldn't see his father's appearance clearly, but his smile was warm and intimate.
He wore a snowy white undergarment, sitting in a chair in the middle of work, little Cheng Jinyu was standing on the side of the chair tugging at his clothes. That person lowered his head and finally saw him. Although Cheng Jinyu could not see clearly his face, but he knew his smile, that kind of gentle and soft, that kind of pleasant warm and cheerful.
From his seat he stood up, squatted down in front of Cheng Jinyu's face, Cheng Jinyu was too short, he could only kneel on the ground, smiled and rubbed Cheng Jinyu's soft and fluffy head.
"Darling what's wrong?" his words were very soft,very gentle, like cotton candy.
"Darling is well behaved, wait a bit for dad, will be done soon." That person's body leaned forward, lips stuck onto Cheng Jinyu's forehead, lightly gave him a kiss.
"Dad is working, darling play by yourself."
Cheng Jinyu's hand tightly pulled on his clothes, tightly pull on,refused to let go. Cannot let go, absolutely can't let go, cannot let this person disappear,
That person unchangedly still gentle and softly smiled, hand stroked nonstop on Cheng Jinyu's back. His mouth softly spoke, "I know that darling is lonely, no problem, dad is here, dad is here."
Gu Bokai came out and regretted it, that was his own room, why did he leave? Gu Bokai walked in a few circles outside, finally decided to return.
The inside of the room was very quiet, that heartless person was actually laying down and sleeping on the bed. Didn't even take off his clothes, definitely didn't shower. Gu Bokai overbearingly walked over.
Just a moment ago he was prepared to go shout at him again, but Cheng Jinyu's hand suddenly stretched forward, firmly grasped onto Gu Bokai's clothes, "Dad, don't leave, dont!"
Cheng Jinyu shouted out loudly, unexpectedly had a bit of a rare pleading tone.
When Gu Bokai was at Cheng House he had seen all different kinds of Cheng Jinyu: servile, sucking up to those in power, currying favor by obeisance, but he had never seen this kind of sorrowful pleading expression.
The dreaming Cheng Jinyu did not know what was happening, his entire body was curled up and shivering, his hand tightly pulled on Gu Bokai's clothes. The blue veins on the back of his hand were all exposed,
Gu Bokai was as if it was his only straw. Losing him was like a little boat who lost their direction in the big ocean, cant find his way home anymore.
Gu Bokai followed along Cheng Jinyus tugging hand and sat by the bedside. Cheng Jinyu immediately curled up his body and snuggled closer, entire body was attached to Gu Bokai's side, just like a homeless stray dog.
Gu Bokai snorted, "This time you're finally well behaved." Gu Bokai spoke these words, then his hands scooped up the little ball of Cheng Jinyu into his embrace.
Gu Bokai's warm body temperature warmed up Cheng Jinyu's ice cold body and the shivering Cheng Jinyu gradually recovered. But Cheng Jinyu's hand continued to firmly grasp Gu Bokai's clothes, mouth crying out, "Dad, dad dont leave, don't abandon me by myself."
Gu Bokai placated him, "Good son, Little one is obedient. I won't leave."
"Not son, darling" the closed eyed Cheng Jinyu melancholically replied.
In an instant a big smiling expression appeared on Gu Bokai's face. He bent his body, pasted his lips to Cheng Jinyu's forehead, "Big darling I'm not leaving. I will be here forever."
Not sure if it was Gu Bokai's ‘big darling' phrase that worked, or if the kiss to his forehead had an effect, but the tense Cheng Jinyu slowly relaxed, little by little slowly slept.
Gu Bokai layed besides Cheng Jinyu, had his entire body buried in his embrace, wide hand gently stroking his back, "Big darling, little sweetheart, I won't leave, never leave."
T/N: Ahhhh sorry for the delay again. I hope everyone had a good Christmas and a happy new year! So in other news:
LOOKING FOR AN EDITOR FOR LMSE AND BAW!
So I realized that I really hate editing. I actually had this chapter completed weeks ago but just never edited it. My problem is, the way I translate is very strange. Chinese words have multiple meanings so sometimes I'll write all the different meanings so I can pick which one fits after I translate the rest. If a sentence doesn't make sense I'll translate it word for word to relook at it again later, or I'll leave the full Chinese there to look at it again later. That being said, if someone is willing to try and read my scribbles to edit, please send me a message and I'll send you the next chapter I translate to see if you can figure out what it says. If its tolerable/have a suggestion for me to make it a bit more tolerable for you to edit, we can work something out. Thank you!
