Ch57 - Love You

Edited by kat

The song that Shen Qi was referring to was the one Fu Mingyuan had hummed for him when the two of them hadn’t met yet. 

The tune was too familiar.

Fu Mingyuan hugged him closer, but the movements of his hands didn’t stop. 

“En,” he answered.

Shen Qi closed his eyes and felt sleepy. His voice was a little softer than usual, and his intonation had slowed down, “What’s the song? I couldn’t find the original song even after searching for a long time.”

Fu Mingyuan was silent for a moment. “It’s a song my mom wrote for my dad when they were young, but it was never published.”

Shen Qi was in a daze and almost asleep. He pulled at Fu Mingyuan’s fingers twice, and then raised his head to kiss him on the chin twice. 

“A love token?

“Gege, you liked me from so long ago ah?” His voice grew lighter as he grew more sleepy. His eyes were still closed, but his voice sounded more like it was laughing than just sleepy. 

Fu Mingyuan’s action of patting him on the back slowed down. At last, he just let out an “en.”

Shen Qi didn’t continue to ask. He just stroked his eyelids with one hand, and the corners of his mouth kept rising. 

“Quickly go to sleep ah Gege~” The hand caressing Fu Mingyuan’s eyelids moved to his cheek again, tracing his outline.

Fu Mingyuan let out an “en” and closed his eyes. 

His breathing also gradually calmed down.

Shen Qi’s fluttering eyelids only then rose again. He stuck his whole body against Fu Mingyuan and looked deeply at his brow, before finally kissing the small wound on his face. 

Only then did he go back to sleep.

It was so good that this person was still here. 

And in the future, he would still always be there.

…. 

The next morning, everyone in the M1G base was awakened by loud noises downstairs.

The sound insulation of the base was actually pretty good. 

So that was enough to tell how loud that sound actually was.

A few minutes ago, Rong Jing was the first to get up at the opposite M1G base. 

Not long after he turned on the computer, a knock sounded at the main door of the base.

Rong Jing was a little impatient and originally didn’t intend to open the door. 

Yet as a result, the person switched from knocking on the door to smashing onto it, again and again, which woke up the rest of the M1G members.

Rong Jing’s expression immediately grew ugly, and he went to open the door with a dark expression.

Rong Jing retreated back two steps.

“Where’s that damn kid Ye Lai?” Ye Ming thought a bit too much of himself. Although he was much shorter than Rong Jing, he still had his nose pointed towards the sky. 

Rong Jing began to close the door without a word, his expression dark.

Ye Ming stuck one foot in and jammed the door. 

“I’m asking you, where is Ye Lai?”

The other M1G members came downstairs one after another. Qiu Ji yawned and asked what was going on. 

He was also stunned when he saw Ye Ming jamming the door.

“Why did he come over here? Ye Lai hasn’t been with us for a long time.” 

Although he said this to Rong Jing, he was also saying it for Ye Ming to hear.

Ye Ming had come to the base to find Ye Lai twice before. At that time, Shen Qi had still been at the base, and he had been driven away by Shen Qi. 

Although professional players couldn’t get into fights, “driving people away” and self-defense were okay.

Ye Ming gave a sneer, and he obviously didn’t believe what Qiu Ji had said. He raised his neck and spewed out the smell of alcohol as he spoke, appearing as though he had drunk a lot. 

“Lying to me? When did people start living on the opposite side of the road? Quickly hand him over. He’s thinking big now, how dare he call the police and tell them to pick me up? He doesn’t even pay my living expenses, but dares to call the police? Where exactly is that damn boy?”

Rong Jing frowned, and his expression was unbearably dark. “Scram out of here now. We already said he isn’t here anymore, so what do we have to do with it?” 

But what kind of person was Ye Ming?

After years of gambling in various casinos, even if he owed a huge amount of debt, he would still just push it all onto his still-young son, Ye Lai. Naturally, as someone who was still beyond the arms of the law, he wasn’t scared of Rong Jing acting like this. 

Qiu Ji and Bao Dao looked at each other, and finally proposed to “send the person to the opposite side.”

No matter how fierce Ye Ming was, he was just a paper tiger full of empty talk, and he couldn’t withstand the force of three adult men. 

Although he was pushed all the way there, curses were still spewing out of his mouth, and all kinds of dirty words came out, all very unpleasant.

Even Rong Jing, who usually didn’t pay much attention to his speech, frowned and threw him at the main door of the QAQ base. 

“Knock on this door!”

Rong Jing directly pushed him onto the ground. 

Ye Ming glared at them fiercely, then began to curse them again.

Rong Jing and the other two didn’t want to pay any more attention to him and directly turned around and went back to their own base. 

Ye Ming saw that they had really left, and looked at the brand-new door and brand-new signboard of this base.

He couldn’t have really changed places? 

He was now even more determined to beat up Ye Lai once he saw him.

He didn’t give him money, reported him to the police, and asked the police to arrest him at home. The only person who knew the exact time when he gambled with others at home was Ye Lai. 

Fortunately, they always had kept the police in mind. There was no cash on the card table, and they just used poker chips. Even if the police came, they would just take them in to lecture, and they wouldn’t receive any substantive punishment.

Ye Ming’s several card friends all blamed Ye Ming. Leaving aside him not paying the money he owed, when they went to his home to gamble, they even got caught and lectured. They suspected that he had directed and acted out this entire scene in order to avoid paying back the money he owed. They were all shameless and brazen people, so they teamed up to beat up Ye Ming. 

Ye Ming had to recover for several days, but he had no money on him. The several casinos wouldn’t let him in, and the few card friends he could manage to invite to his house all feared that he would play this trick again, so he could only stay at home and drink during this time.

He looked through his bank cards. He had called his son for money last time, but he hadn’t given him any. 

At that moment, he managed to find the address of the old base.

He knew that playing games professionally could make a lot of money. Otherwise, how could he have been able to pay off that huge debt so easily. 

The neighborhood wasn’t that easy to enter. The security guard at the gate saw that he was a complete mess and stopped him for a long time.

Finally, Ye Ming tunneled in through a dog hole in the wall. 

He wanted to try the same trick again, but now he had no bricks, so he had to pick some mud from the flower bed to smash onto the door. Before he could smash it, the door opened.

Ye Ming’s action stopped in mid-air, and he gave a ferocious look. 

Shen Qi had opened the door impatiently.

The weather was a little cold, and there were completely two different temperatures inside the base versus outside the base. 

He was woken up in the early morning while still in Gege’s arms, so Shen Qi wasn’t in a good mood right now.

When he got up, Fu Mingyuan still hadn’t woken up. It was probably because he had experienced the house collapsing and his nerves had actually been on edge the entire time. He hadn’t slept yesterday, but now he was sleeping heavily. 

Shen Qi found some earplugs to help him block out the noise, and only then did he slowly head down the stairs while yawning.

“What can I do for you?” Shen Qi half-leaned at the entrance, squinting slightly. He slightly raised his eyelids, and his expression was full of impatience. 

Ye Ming seemed to be stunned for a while, but seeing him, he was now a little scared.

Only now did Shen Qi discover that it was Ye Ming who had made so much noise that he couldn’t sleep. 

A laugh emerged from his nose.

Shen Qi drew his arms around himself, stood up straight, and said neither quickly nor slowly, “It’s you ah?” 

He chuckled. “What, you’re here to send a housewarming gift this early in the morning?”

Ye Ming straightened his neck. “You…you’re minding my business? I’m here for Ye Lai, where’s Ye Lai?” 

“Tch, Ye Lai is one of my people now. Do you think I can’t mind his business?” Shen Qi bent down and looked at Ye Ming’s haggard face for a while.

Ye Ming was actually only 40 years old, but he appeared 50 or 60 years old. 

Slovenly and unkempt.

“What? Need money ah?” He had a smile on his face. 

“How much do you want ah? Do you have no money now?”

Ye Ming’s eyes lit up at once. Listening to him, it sounded like he was going to give him money in place of Ye Lai. 

But Ye Ming didn’t dare to believe him.

After all, Shen Qi had once driven him out like a street dog before. 

The temptation of money was irresistible though.

He nodded. 

Shen Qi let out an “ah” and said, “Alright, let’s find a quiet place to talk.”

When Ye Lai came down, Shen Qi had already followed Ye Ming down the small path beside the villa. 

There were usually few people over there.

Ye Lai was so worried his eyes turned red. He urged Lu Tun to go upstairs and find Fu Mingyuan, and he also went up himself. 

When Ye Ming was going crazy, he could really go fully crazy.

“How much?” Shen Qi half leaned against the wall and asked casually. 

Ye Ming looked at him suspiciously, and then looked around, but there was no one around.

He stuck out all the fingers on one hand and shook it a bit. 

“Five million.”

Shen Qi laughed. 

There was some arrogance in his eyes.

Ye Ming suddenly reacted. 

The other party didn’t actually want to give him any money.

He stretched out his hand, but his fist didn’t hit Shen Qi’s face. 

It was stopped halfway.

With a lot of strength. 

Ye Ming felt that his wrist was about to break.
