Mr. Dior - Chap 15
Jiao Qi had already seen the photo album during the time when he went to the basement, but the feeling is still completely different when two people are looking at those pictures together. He could also beat up the photographer at that time, his now husband, while they’re at it.
The two men lay down side by side on the big bed of the master bedroom, looking at the pictures one by one.
Some of the shots were taken beautifully. The young Jiao Yan in a white shirt, standing under a verdant and lush Camphor tree, is looking up at the orange kitten that was squatting on the tree branch. The sunshine gave him and the kitten a layer of golden color, which looked like an encounter between the prince and the elf in a fairy tale.
Some were obviously hurriedly snapped just like the one that was shot in the basketball court. Jiao Qi was running so fast that his whole body had actually become a virtual shadow. There were many girls standing on the sidelines, cheering with flushed cheeks.
The next one is the scene where a female student was giving a bottle of mineral water to Jiao Qi during the half-time break, but Jiao Qi rejected it by waving his hand. The girl’s face was marked with strokes of “pig head” [T/N: means stupid/fool] Chinese characters, so Jiao Qi could not see her original appearance.
“Why did you write “pig head” on the person’s face?”
“She is too ugly. Every time I look at her, I feel like my eyes is getting burned so I covered it up.” Zhang Chenfei said bluntly with righteousness.
Jiao Qi tilted his head to glance at him, not at all convinced. “It was not allowed to bring a mobile phone inside the school. How were you able to take pictures?”
As a delinquent who was always taken to be ignorant and incompetent, don’t talk about mobile phones, inside the drawers of Zhang Chenfei in those years were cameras, cell phones, and game consoles of all kinds.
“I was a poor student.” Zhang Chenfei dropped and buried his face inside the quilt. “You will not understand this but in the first year in high school, I skipped class and climbed over the wall just so I could go out and play games.”
Jiao Qi raised his hand and stroked at the furry head. It is really difficult to link this person, a greatly accomplished Q graduate, to the high school student, who skipped class to play. “How come I have not seen you during senior high school?”
A male student who is so handsome and tall like Zhang Chenfei should be very famous in high school.
“I was not the same in senior high school as I am now.” At that time, his mother passed away. His father was not at home all year round, like he has not existed at all. There’s no one to take care of Zhang Chenfei. His slovenly appearance and manner was a big contrast to the young prince under the fragrant Camphor tree, who seemed like a person who didn’t belong to this world.
Thinking back on the situation of Zhangda Diao’s family, Jiao Qi instantly understood his unspoken words, and moved his body to lie on top of Zhang Chenfei’s back. “The blind date at that time, did you set it up?”
At that time, Jiao Qi had only returned to China for a short while when same-sex marriage became legal domestically. As soon as he learned of this, he stopped by his family to tell them the truth, that he likes men. Daddy Jiao had initially wanted to break his leg, but was stopped by the piteous weeping of Mommy Jiao.
Mr. Jiao Zuoren, an old antique from the last century, firmly believed that the private lives of men, who like the same gender, are very chaotic. However in the end, he compromised. As long as Jiao Qi goes to a blind date to find a decent man to marry, he will no longer oppose. As a result, Young Master Jiao, who just recently graduated from university, was forced to enter the matchmaking market.
When Zhang Chenfei found out that his male god had returned to China, he designed three flawless plans on how to pursue Jiao Qi. Unfortunately, his plans can’t keep up with the changes. Seeing Li Yingjun, who was having a date with Jiao Qi inside the coffee shop, he almost rushed up to blow up Li Yingjun’s head.
“Don’t laugh!” Zhang Chenfei felt that the body of the guy who was lying on his back was shaking. He felt unhappy and so, he turned the man around pushing him down. “Laugh at me again and I will kiss you!” said Zhang Chenfei in a fierce tone. ‘I am going to wait till we are in our seventies or until we are very old before I tell you, Jiao Qi, that being laughed at for a lifetime is also good.’
Jiao Qi couldn’t stop laughing. The husband who was ashamed into anger abruptly blocked his mouth.
After fooling around for half a day, Jiao Qi remembered an important matter. “This situation seems to be more serious. You don’t remember what your name is. If this keeps on happening, it will affect your normal life. You can’t delay it anymore. Let’s go to America.”
The smart brain is made up of nano materials, which can’t be removed. If one wants to forcibly remove it, it would require surgery. This is their last resort, but still, they’re hoping to treat this disorder by other means.
“Actually, I remember.” Zhang Chenfei said in a whisper.
“Huh?”
The plot was too shameful to describe. The president pulled up the quilt over his head and spoke in a muffled low voice. “He knows that he, Zhang Chenfei, is a poor boy.”
Zhangda Diao insisted that the person who got caught up into the plot was not him.
Because he didn’t want his little substitute to know that he was the poor boy Zhang Chenfei, he intentionally signed Dior at that time Jiao Qi came into his office. As a result, only a dozen or more copies were signed wrong. Before his lovely little wife came and after he left, there were no issues with the signatures on the documents.
Jiao Qi was unable to respond. The fact showed that he didn’t blindly write that nickname. This information made him worry less.
Inside the four-cornered room, the couple talked talked about their lives as students and about their romantic love that was both difficult and full of deep emotions.
The next day.
As Jiao Qi opened his eyes early in the morning, he saw his lao gong watching the news with his smart brain while hugging him in his arms. Then, he asked with uncertainty, “What is your name?”
Zhang Chenfei broke into laughter as he answered, “Baby, it’s me. There’s no script today.”
Looking at his lovely little wife heaving a big sigh of relief, he couldn’t help but move closer and kiss him. To cause so much trouble in somebody’s family, this smart brain manufacturer must go bankrupt!
Zhang Chenfei drove his lovely little wife to work and while on the road, Jiao Qi informed him that “Feeding the Dog with Good Intention” and Bajiao had terminated their contract. “The anchor went to other live broadcast platforms and he also sent you a letter regarding his endorsement at Shi Fei Technology.”
“This is all about the business of our family, and it will be up to you whoever you want to give the endorsements to.”
…
The unprincipled president-daren just arrived at Shi Fei Technology when he received a strange phone call.
“President Zhang, I am the anchor of ‘Feeding the Dog with Good Intention’. I want to discuss with you about the endorsement of the new game.” Speaking on the other side of the phone is Gou Xin.
“You don’t have to discuss about such matters directly with me. Get your company to contact our Marketing Department.” Zhang Chenfei said it straightforwardly as he does not want to waste his time.
“I terminated my contract with Bajiao and because of your relationship with President Jiao, this endorsement will unlikely be given to me anymore. However, I have a small thing in my hand for you to listen to. Perhaps, you will be willing to reconsider me,” said Gou Xin and sent an audio file over.
【 There is nothing to say. He is just a substitute! 】
【 You, how can you do this?! You made the young master of the Jiao household as a substitute?! 】
The familiar voice was exactly the conversation Zhang Chenfei had with Gao Shiqing in a corner at the buffet reception that day.
“I only hope that this endorsement will be given to me. My endorsement, in exchange of this recording. There won’t be any loss, right?” Gou Xin spoke with much confidence. The value of this endorsement is very high, and it is also very helpful in promoting his personal popularity. His current live broadcast platform does not have the ability to help him fight, so he can only rely on himself.
“…” The president does not know what to say. Is this threatening him?
“If this matter become known to President Jiao, or if I release it in the live broadcast, your loss will not be just a simple endorsement.” Although the Jiao Yang Real Estate is on the decline, the skinny camel is still bigger than a horse. The Jiao household is still rich and powerful according to standards. It may be assumed that Zhang Chenfei is not willing to lose this kind of wife’s parents’ family.
“Oh,” Zhang Chenfei held his forehead and sneered, “Kid, don’t take it too seriously. In this world of strong people, it is easier for me to crush you than to crush an ant!”
The cold and cruel tone, resembling the dark Demon King in the game, is incompatible with the real world. However, it is unexpectedly full of intimidating power. Gou Xin stared blankly for quite a while. Looking at the phone number, Gou Xin was thinking whether it was right to call President Zhang.
Does this mean that President Zhang, a man with good temperament, is henpecked? What kind of horrible momentum does this warlord have?
…
As the sun sets, Jiao Qi walks out of the Bajiao building and just as he stepped out, he sees a black Maybach imposingly stopped on the side of the road. That eye-catching manner of parking the car has caused the surrounding people to repeatedly turn their heads around to look.
“Has the car been repaired?” Jiao Qi walked over the driver’s side, and the glass window slowly fell, revealing Zhang Chenfei, who was wearing sunglasses. “It’s already dark. Why do you still have your sunglasses on?”
The president looked at him, opened the door and got off the car. He took off his sunglasses in a chic way, and in an elegant and gentlemanly way, he carefully held Jiao Qi’s hand. “It is too dangerous for a man to walk alone on the road. Next time, wait for me to go up your office and pick you up.”
“Huh?” Jiao Qi looked left and right. In front of Bajiao building is a small plaza where people come and go, and vehicles are stuck in traffic. “What could the danger be?”
“You poor little thing. You have no idea at all how fatal you appeal to others!” President-daren sighed helplessly. Seeing that some people are frequently looking towards their direction, he suddenly thought of them as the big enemy, and quickly stuffed his lovely little wife into the front passenger seat, fastening his seat belt.
The faint sweet smell from Jiao Qi seemed to assault Zhang Chenfei’s senses, which is, of course, the perfume that Jiao Qi normally uses – L’Artisan Parfumeur Fleur De Liane. It smells like the sweet fragrance of the grass in a tropical rain forest with a strong scholarly flavor.
{T/N: L’Artisan Parfumeur Fleur De Liane – “Flower of the Vine” is the fourth perfume in L’Artisan Parfumeur’s Travel Series. Fleur de Liane was created by a renowned perfumer to commemorate his trip to the island of Bahia Honda in Panama. Inspired by the sultry, tropical atmosphere of the island, Fleur de Liane celebrates lush rains and the ocean, the exuberant green of leaves, the mossy and woody aroma of the sap, and the mysterious, narcotic white flower of the tropical forest.

Zhang Chenfei couldn’t help but sniff the side of his neck, as if he was very intoxicated. “What a sweet pheromone! Your father is right. You are a pure-blooded Omega. You will be able to birth me the most powerful child!”
What?!?
Jiao Qi is baffled. He is aware that this guy is expected to enter another new script, but the question is: Was he spouting human words?
Every word he speaks can be understood, but he cannot comprehend its meaning. What Omega? What pure-blooded? What child?
Is the new script not about a president?
