Chapter 8 Part2

When BeiTang MinQian returned home, he was extremely depressed.

Even though the arrival of the boy, Qin Su actually uplifted Su YuanHeng's spirits, but for BeiTang MinQian who never liked to interact with other people, it was really hard for him to adapt to seeing his cozy home with Su YuanHeng being suddenly intruded by a stranger.

When Qin Su first saw him (BeiTang MinQian), he was stunned for the longest time.  Stuttering, “You … aren't you that model……that famous model, Werner?”

Many girls in the orphanage are his fans. They would secretly save their little pathetic allowances and pool it together to buy his magazines. Qin Su also really liked……his physique. He had long aspired to have abs just like his.

“You've mistaken. Call me BeiTang," BeiTang MinQian calmly denied.

BeiTang MinQian's persona exudes a kind of power and influential aura that have always been convincing to people, especially for a naive youngster like Qin Su.

“Ohhh, ah … sorry. Then I'll call you BeiTang. Nice to meet you, Mr. BeiTang,” Qin Su was so nervous that he continued to stutter.

But he really looks like him…..

Su YuanHeng rubbed his head and added, “Just call him GeGe (T/N). BeiTang GeGe."

T/N: GeGe is an affectionate term for older brother.

Qin Su was astounded once again.

Call him GeGe?

What the h.e.l.l. This kind of person … with such arrogance, can I call him GeGe?

At a glance, one can see that BeiTang MinQian is no ordinary person. He is naturally born with a type of superior temperament where people would unconsciously admire and be in awe of him. And such, wouldn't dare to offend him.

BeiTang MinQian really didn't care to be called "GeGe" by Qin Su. He is the youngest in his family so no one has ever addressed him as GeGe. What's more, seeing the cautionary expression from YuanHeng, he put on a “professional” smile and uttered, “Since you call YuanHeng Ge, then it's also fine to just call me GeGe.”

Oh my G.o.d! He's so gorgeous!

Qin Su suddenly felt dizzy.

The charms of the world's top model is not something that a country boy like him could bear.

Su YuanHeng, seeing that Qin Su has been mesmerized, shook his head, “I'm gonna go cook dinner.”

BeiTang MinQian quickly uttered, “You don't have to, let me do it!"

Su YuanHeng stiffened, “No, it's better to let me do it.”

“Go rest, I'll do it!” BeiTang MinQian said decisively as he rolled up his sleeve and walked to the kitchen.

Su YuanHeng is very worried because BeiTang MinQian's culinary skills aren't that great, but he's unrelenting.

Qin Su suddenly regained his senses and saw that the person who looks like an angel actually rolling up his sleeves to cook.

Oh my G.o.d, how could this be?! This is too unreal!

He quickly ran ahead into the kitchen and shouted, “Let me, let me. Both of you could go rest. I'll do it."

Su YuanHeng, “How could we let you do it?”

“I should, I should. Su Ge, I'm already sorry for inconveniencing you by living here. I should do some housework. Su Ge, trust my culinary skills okay? It'll be done shortly. Hurry up and go outside to Bei……Bei……go rest."

He still can't say the word “GeGe.”

Qin Su's heart is full of tears.

He's really not a person of this world……I dare not! I don't dare to offend!

Su Ge is really something; he actually lives with such person. Their relations.h.i.+p looks to be very good. He is indeed Su Ge! Role model! My role model!

Qin Su's imagination ran wild while he started to cook. After being in the orphanage for so many years, he is considered an exemplary ‘chef' when it came to cooking.

Su YuanHeng didn't think it was appropriate but BeiTang MinQian had already pulled him out of the kitchen, “Just let him do it or else he'll feel unsettled."

"Unsettled?"

“A child at his age is very sensitive, not to mention that he's from the orphanage. If you don't let him do something, he'll feel unsettled.”

Su YuanHeng was bit surprised. He didn't think that BeiTang MinQian would say such a thing. While looking at BeiTang MinQian sitting on the couch watching TV, he can't help but smile as he went over to intimately caress his head.

“Hey, don't treat me like a child,” BeiTang MinQian displeasingly pushed his hand away and hugged his (Su YuanHeng's) waist, using his head to ma.s.sage his protruding belly.

Su YuanHeng smiled, “I didn't expect you to be so considerate of others. It feels like you're so mature."

“Bulls.h.i.+t, I'm an adult!” BeiTang MinQian lifted his head and glared at him, “So you've always looked down upon me. Aren't I going to be a father?"

“Who dares to look down on you? The magnificent chief executive,” Su YuanHeng gently combed through his hair.

BeiTang MinQian suddenly remembered something and asked, “Did he ask?”

"About what?"

“This,” BeiTang MinQian touched his belly.

Su YuanHeng shook his head and whispered, “I don't think he noticed.”

Qin Su was probably too excited to see him, adding on that he rarely came to the city so he was more concentrated on checking out the surrounding environment than to notice his physical changes.

BeiTang MinQian furrowed his brows, “How many days is he going to stay here? If he starts to notice, then just tell him. It's not that big of a deal. Just that with him here, you'll also have to take care of him. Too tiring."

Su YuanHeng uttered, “He's very understanding. He won't need me to take care of him. As for the other stuff, don't worry about it.”

BeiTang MinQian had nothing more to say.

Qin Su joyously cooked dinner. He wanted to showcase his culinary skills. A few of his dishes are done quite well. The three ate happily. After dinner, he quickly went to wash the dishes and put it away making Su YuanHeng feel a bit apologetic.

Su YuanHeng had been very drowsy lately, adding on he didn't rest in the afternoon so he was very sleepy after dinner. BeiTang MinQian told him to go to the room to sleep.

Qin Su blinked and asked, “That……BeiTang …GeGe, do you also live here?”

BeiTang MinQian looked at him as if he was asking something that made no sense.

Qin Su was somewhat embarra.s.sed, “Did I take your room with me being here?”

“No,” BeiTang MinQian lightly responded, “That room was originally empty.”

This is a two bedroom apartment. That room was his study but since Qin Su came, Su YuanHeng had cleaned that room in the afternoon so he (Qin Su) could stay there.

“Huh?” Qin Su's stared blankly, seeming to not understand his meaning.

BeiTang MinQian glanced at his watch, “I'm also going back to the room. If you want to watch TV, go ahead but lower the volume a bit. Use the bathroom in the living room. Knock if there is anything."

“Okay,” Qin Su watched him walk into Su YuanHeng's room and locked the door.

What is going on? Why are they sleeping in one room? It's not like there is no empty room.

Qin Su's head is full of questions.

When BeiTang MinQian went into the room, it was only 8pm but Su YuanHeng had already fallen asleep.

BeiTang MinQian showered and changed into his pajamas. He sat at the desk, dimmed the lamp and turned on his laptop to browse over some doc.u.ments. After some time, he suddenly heard suppressed groaning coming from the bed behind him.

BeiTang MinQian quickly went to the bed and sees Su YuanHeng creasing his brows and turning his body with difficulty.

“YuanHeng, what's wrong?”

Su YuanHeng opened his eyes, his forehead sweating bullets as he whispered, “Leg cramps.”

“Which leg?”

“Think……both are cramping,” Su YuanHeng is extremely uncomfortable.

BeiTang MinQian quickly lifted the blanket and helped him ma.s.sage his legs. While rubbing, he asked, “Why are both legs cramping?”

Su YuanHeng propped himself halfway up, “It could be from walking too much this afternoon. Ah……lightly!”

BeiTang MinQian's hands are strong and his movements skilled, so very shortly, Su YuanHeng felt better.

With his body breaking out in cold sweat, Su YuanHeng gasped as he leaned against the bed, “Why are you still not sleeping?”

“It's just 12AM, not sleepy."

“Been very busy at work?”

“It's still okay. It's been too long time since I left and there are many things that I needed to take over again. With so many business engagements in America, I might need to have a company reorg sometime in the near future."

Su YuanHeng's heart turned cold, “Do you need to return to America?”

BeiTang MinQian was also pondering over this issue. There are too many cooperative projects between Lin's Group and BeiTang Group, so much that their shares have started to infuse. Even though it doesn't seem like there are any problems at the moment, BeiTang MinQian still feel a bit uneasy.

During his six years of absence, BeiTang Corp was managed by several distant uncles and his second brother-in-law. Although BeiTang YaZhi was there to oversee its operations, she is after all, already married out of the family so there are many things that are beyond her authority.

His second sister, BeiTang QingZhi, is a pianist with a bit of an artist's sensibilities and a weak temperament.

BeiTang HuiZhi also didn't want to be involved with family matters.

His second brother-in-law, surnamed Lin, is Lin ShaoCong and is the grandson of Lin's Corp. When he returned to America, he (Lin) struggled to bring the two families' relations.h.i.+p closer but BeiTang MinQian didn't want to get too close to the Lin family.

If the BeiTang family is considered a big tree that has long been deeply rooted, then the Lin family is a small seeding that has just sprouted under the big tree. Even though it had been developing rapidly in recent years, in the eyes of the BeiTang family, they are just a newly upstarted family.

BeiTang MinQian didn't care that Lin ShaoCong courted his sister with ulterior motives back then. As a direct descendant of the Lin family who doesn't have much clout (likely son of a mistress), Lin ShaoCong barely has any say within the Lin family.

But it's not the same when he's in the BeiTang family. Although it's inevitable that he relied on nepotism, this family is based on competency. As long as he has the ability, treats his second sister well and she is happy, then BeiTang MinQian didn't care too much.

However, recently this brother-in-law had been too clever, going so far as getting involved with his matters. So, it was very unpleasant for BeiTang MinQian.

BeiTang MinQian is most annoyed with people interfering in his matters. BeiTang YaZhi is his eldest sister, older than him by more than ten years, so to be pressured by her, he could still endure it. But no other people have the rights to do so.

Roping in Lin's Corp have its benefits, but the benefits are not big enough to make him accept that.

“Depending on the situation. There are some things in American that I need to take care of."

Su YuanHeng thought of his fiancée. He had never asked BeiTang MinQian about this. Since their big fight last year, this had become a knot between them. And even though the topic of breaking up is no longer mentioned, this unsettling matter still remained in his heart.

Since returning from America, Su YuanHeng had been so busy with his father's matters that left him no time to think about it. But now that all had settled, some things needed to be brought up sooner or later.

But he still didn't want to mention it, merely uttering, “Ok. Go sleep early." After saying that, he turned over and continued to lie down.

BeiTang MinQian suddenly suggested, “Why don't you go back with me?”

Su YuanHeng was shocked, “Why?”

“I may not be able to return for a month or two this time. It's better for you to come with me. I'll be more at ease. Otherwise, who is going to help you ma.s.sage if you get cramps like this in the middle of the night?" BeiTang MinQian said it so naturally but toward the end, he slightly laughed.

Su YuanHeng suppressed it in his heart but he is still a bit angry.

Don't tell me that you are returning to see your fiancée, yet still wanted me to go with you? What's the meaning of bringing a pregnant man with you?

BeiTang MinQian saw him glaring at himself and misunderstood what he meant. Putting his hands on both sides of the pillow, he lowered his body and smiled, “Don't you think that I'm being very considerate? Having a husband like me is not bad right?”

His smug expression suddenly made it impossible for Su YuanHeng to be angry with him.

He really didn't know how this person thinks. His IQ is obviously high but sometimes his EQ is so low that it is scary.

“What's wrong? Why do you have this kind of expression?” BeiTang MinQian looked strangely at him.

“Stupid!” Su YuanHeng finally could not help but quietly scold him. Then he turned his head and covered himself with the blanket, ignoring him.

BeiTang MinQian is startled, his expression inconceivable, “What? You actually call me stupid? Get up. Get up! Say it clearly, how am I stupid? Hey! Hey…"

BeiTang MinQian jumped onto the bed to pull the blanket but Su YuanHeng gripped tightly onto the corners, not letting go. The two are like children playing around on the bed. Such big movements even the bed was squeaking.

As they were rolling about playfully, suddenly a loud banging sound was heard from the door and Qin Su's voice came from outside, “Su Ge , BeiTang … Gege…what are you guys doing?”

The both of them have forgotten that there is a guest in their house. All of a sudden, they got scared. They paused and became silent.

Still, BeiTang MinQian was the first to respond, “It's nothing. We were just chatting. Why haven't you gone to sleep?”

Qin Su is baffled, “I came out to use the toilet and heard your voices……you guys aren't arguing, right?”

Su YuanHeng responded, “We're not arguing.”

Qin Su still stood by the side of the door, not leaving. BeiTang MinQian went to open the door and gloomily blocked it as he asked, “Is there anything else?”

Qin Su was shocked and stuttered, “I … I …  I was thinking that if it's hard for the both of you to sleep together, I can sleep on the couch. You, you……the guest room……”

BeiTang MinQian reacted impatiently, “We've always slept together. Cohabitation! Cohabitation, you understand? Hurry up and go to sleep!” After he finished saying that, he slammed the door closed.

Qin Su stood outside like an idiot.

Huh? Cohabitation? What does that mean?

Returning to the room, BeiTang MinQian and Su YuanHeng looked at each other and couldn't help but laughed loudly.

Thank goodness they weren't doing anything but playing around in bed. If they were really having s.e.x……it would be so embarra.s.sing.

“Having another person in the house is really troublesome,” BeiTang MinQian mumbled as he climbed into bed.

Su YuanHeng glanced at him while ma.s.saging his own belly, “What about this (referring to the baby)?"

“That's completely different,” BeiTang MinQian naturally responded. Then he pulled Su YuanHeng toward him and pulled the blanket, “Sleep.”

Qin Su is already 17 years old. He understood the underlying meaning of two men cohabiting. It's just that he couldn't imagine that the gentle, cultivated, and amiable Su Ge is a h.o.m.os.e.xual. But this did not affect the respect he has for him. Only that human's natural curiosity made him want to ask certain things but he held back from asking.

He also didn't dare to tell Mother Dean. In front of Su YuanHeng, he revealed an expression like that of, "I will keep your secret" making Su YuanHeng felt at loss, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Su YuanHeng had thought that since Qin Su had been living with them for so many days, he would certainly have realized his body's anomalies. So he was well prepared for Qin Su to ask him about it.

Who would have thought that this child is really abnormal even when it came to being naïve. He didn't even suspect anything. Even until his Winter vacation came to an end and he was packing to return to the orphanage, he still didn't notice his obviously protruding eight-month belly.

Even BeiTang MinQian couldn't help but say, “This kid is unusual.”

Very unusual! His observation skills are so bad. Don't know how he is going to be a doctor in the future. He won't overlook if the patient's illness turned worst right?

Su YuanHeng began to worry about Qin Su's future.
