Chapter 26: CH 26

When the two brothers came out of the bedroom, Yan Qi was telling Asher and Lu Tao stories when he and Cheng Jin were kids.

“When he was a child, he was as squeamish as a girl, crying at every opportunity, louder than others even when he was obviously the bully. He had a biased older brother who would comfort him with hugs and apologize on his behalf, knowing it was his fault.” Yan Qi did not hold back because Cheng Jin was there, nor did he lower his voice even a little.

Cheng Jin’s face turned red from embarrassment, and he said with little vigor, “I-I didn’t…”

“Do you have any idea what you’re talking about, having a biased brother and being so reckless?” Yan Qi added, “I was not so lucky. Although I have six older brothers, not one of them indulged me, so I wished at that time that Xu ge was my real brother,” he said and looked at Cheng Xu, the corners of his mouth showing a meaningful smile. 

Cheng Jin, who was standing by his brother’s side, didn’t even notice this look in his eyes and only felt aggrieved. “Did you purposely come to reveal my shortcomings today?”

“Tsk.” Yan Qi said, “You call this revealing your shortcomings? I haven’t said anything outrageous yet. For example…” Before he could say anything, Cheng Jin hurriedly walked over and subconsciously tried to cover his mouth. “Don’t say it, don’t say it! Xiao Yan Qi, don’t go too far! I know things back when you were a child, too! You poured chili powder into other people’s coffee, and! When you were 16, 17 years old, you cried when you got rejected after confessing your feelings to someone!” Cheng Jin couldn’t care less about anything else than preventing his image from being ruined in front of his husband.

He used to have a bad image in Lu Tao’s mind, but Lu Tao was now in a state of amnesia, so even if it was only for a few months, he hoped to be seen positively by Lu Tao.

Yan Qi’s facial expression changed, but Asher smiled with interest. “There was such a thing, huh?”

Cheng Jin said, “Yes, crying pathetically while facing the corner of our house. It was pouring rain that day, and if my brother didn’t tell me to stay away from him, I might have sympathized with him and brought him an umbrella.” It had just occurred to Cheng Jin after he finished the revelation that the other party was now the richest man on the Imperial Planet. He craned his neck and chickened out, quickly hiding by his husband’s side and meeting the sunken eyes of Yan Qi. “Xiao Yan Qi, you started it. I-I didn’t mean to tell…”

Yan Qi looked at him sinisterly. Suddenly the corners of his mouth revealed a smile, and his tone became tender. “Cheng Jin, do you want to know who I confessed to then?”

Cheng Jin subconsciously wanted to shake his head, but quickly noticed the strangeness in his words, and he suddenly froze for a moment. “Was it someone I knew?”

“Of course. Wanna take a guess?”

While he was still thinking, Cheng Xu suddenly opened his mouth. “Xiao Jin, I’ll leave now.”

Cheng Jin suddenly came back to his senses from recalling the past. He was somewhat surprised, “Ge, you’re leaving now? You won’t spend the night here? Or at least stay for dinner.”

“No, I have work this afternoon.” Cheng Xu then looked at Yan Qi. “Yan Qi, could you give me a ride?” 

The man met his gaze and slowly showed a smile, his eyes full of smugness. “Sure.”

Cheng Jin saw that he couldn’t make his brother stay, so he said, “Ge, I prepared some things for you to take back.” He hurriedly went to bring several boxes out and stuffed them into his brother’s arms. “It’s all for you to eat. Take them with you.”

Cheng Xu opened his mouth but couldn’t refuse it, so he nodded gently. “Ok.”

Asher also wanted to leave, so Cheng Jin and Lu Tao walked them out. Asher drove a car, but Yan Qi flew a small starship of the latest style that was very stylish and eye-catching. Cheng Jin looked at it a few more times enviously, and withdrew his gaze only when the starship had flown away. A somewhat unpleasant voice sounded behind him, “So reluctant for them to leave?” 

Cheng Jin did not hear the jealousy in the tone and said with some frustration, “I don’t know when I will see my brother again; of course I don’t want him to leave.”

Lu Tao gazed at him deeply. He grabbed Cheng Jin and brought him inside the house effortlessly, then pressed him against the wall, sullenly came close and stared into his eyes. “I’m talking about Yan Qi.”

Seeing the look in his husband’s eyes, Cheng Jin was a little surprised and couldn’t help smiling. “You think I don’t want Xiao Yan Qi to leave? How is that possible? I used to dislike him the most.”

Lu Tao also knew that his jealousy came from nowhere, but the feeling in his heart could not be contained, and at this moment, hearing the words of his young wife, he felt a bit better, so he asked, “Why?” 

“He always thought he had a high IQ, looking at me as if I was a fool. He was often against me and hostile to me for no reason. It would be the strangest thing if I liked him.”

Cheng Jin added, “But I was very surprised that he liked someone and was rejected after confessing his feelings, because I thought he was so arrogant that no one mattered to him. When he asked me just now to guess who turned him down, I couldn’t think of who it would be. Among the group of us who hung out together back then, I was probably the only one who would turn him down.”

Lu Tao saw that his young wife was indeed very confused, and recalled that man’s behaviors just now. He thought of something that was strange but seemed to be the most probable answer. Just when he was hesitant whether to tell Cheng Jin, his young wife had put this matter behind him, and tiptoed up to kiss him on the lips, then said excitedly, “Let’s go unwrap the gifts? ”

Lu Tao then put off the idea of giving his young wife pointers. 

After a week, the number of people who came to visit the Lord General finally decreased. Cheng Jin also got a great number of presents, the most of which were ingredients and sweets. Cheng Jin handpicked some that were easy to chew, threw in a folded blanket he’d woven, and then proposed, “Honey, should we send these to grandma?”

The old lady lived alone in the Cheng family mansion. Because the citizens had good benefits, she had robots to take care of her household chores and community workers who provided services at her house every day, so she didn’t want to live with them in the first place. However, Cheng Jin knew that the reason she did not want to live with them was because she hated him.

Anyone would have a hard time forgiving the person who made them lose the ability to walk.

In the first few years, Cheng Jin did not feel that it was his fault. He felt that the delay of a few days might not have affected the outcome of her surgery, and maybe it would have been the same result if the surgery was conducted a few days earlier. But later he realized his mistake and how unreasonable and rude he was at that time. Technology was  indeed advanced, but how would moving with the help of a machine and walking with her own legs be the same? 

He had apologized, but no matter how sincere he was, the old lady responded with harsh words and genuinely hoped that he and Lu Tao would divorce.

Thinking of this, Cheng Jin was a bit sad.

Lu Tao asked, “Would you come along?”

Cheng Jin hurriedly shook his head. “I’d just make her feel worse if I go. Forget it…” He hesitated for a bit, then continued, “I once…made a really huge mistake, so grandma doesn’t like me, and she might tell you what happened… And if you hate me too…”He couldn’t breathe normally after saying this, and he couldn’t continue or even look at Lu Tao’s face. 

But Lu Tao said, “That won’t happen.”

Cheng Jin quickly raised his head.

The handsome man’s face was gentle, without the usual coldness, which made Cheng Jin somewhat relieved. Lu Tao pinched his cheek and gently laughed. “Doesn’t my baby know that he’s wrong now? I heard them say that you used to be very spoiled, but now you’re really good, as you’re mending your mistakes.”

Cheng Jin’s heart was flooded with emotions. He had indeed been changing, but if this man hadn’t lost his memory, he would never have seen his changes, or perhaps he would have seen them but was already appalled by him and wouldn’t change his perception. 

As a result, even if he didn’t detest him right now, it was just for a short time.

Cheng Jin changed the topic, “Do you think these are enough?”

“Should be.” Lu Tao rubbed his hair. “You really won’t come with me?”

Cheng Jin shook his head. “No.” He added, “Oh by the way, don’t tell grandma I made the blanket, otherwise I’m afraid she won’t accept it. It’s getting cold, and this blanket was made of high quality wool. It’ll keep her warm. She will probably feel more comfortable having it on her lap.” 

Lu Tao nodded in response, and did not press him again. However, Cheng Jin became preoccupied at home after Lu Tao left alone.

He was scared that Lu Tao would learn about their past, expose his lies, and return to how he was before. He couldn’t do anything all day because he was so scared. He should have finished his work, but when he picked up the needle, he even felt that the needle became very heavy. He forced himself to work for a while but couldn’t accomplish anything except poking his index finger with the needle.

He put the bleeding index finger inside his mouth and sucked on it. The taste of blood filled his mouth, but he was unaware of the pain. Not sure how much time had passed before Cheng Jin came to his senses and decided to use the old way.

Seduction. 

Even if Lu Tao threw a tantrum after learning the truth, he was only told about what had happened and didn’t experience it himself, so it should be relatively easy to calm him down. Since Lu Tao’s memory loss, the two had been having sex on a regular basis..

They had had more sex recently than what they used to in a year. There had been several nights when Lu Tao would have wanted Cheng Jin a few more times if Cheng Jin wasn’t completely exhausted. And after the memory loss, Lu Tao’s whole personality had changed. He not only wanted to have sex, but also liked to try new tricks, such as watching porns together.

Thinking of this, Cheng Jin hurriedly went to clean himself in the bathroom. After washing every part of his body carefully, he went to check underneath the bed while naked, as he remembered that he had put a box of erotic toys he previously bought there.

He wanted to seduce his husband before as well, so he bought a bunch of erotic toys online. But he didn’t succeed and most of the toys were left there unopened. Cheng Jin pulled out the box, opened it, and his face turned red while looking at the various erotic toys. 

For some of the things he didn’t understand, he learned their use after watching porns. And when he thought of those images, he felt embarrassed, and for a moment didn’t know what to do. When he was going through the toys and trying to pick one, the palm of his hand came across a furry thing, and he picked it up.

The furry tail was so cute, but the tail end was attached to a huge dildo. Cheng Jin was taken by surprise when he saw the shape of that thing. Just when he was about to throw it away, his husband’s voice came from the door, “What are you doing?”

Startled, Cheng Jin stumbled and subconsciously rolled under the bed and hid.
