Subordinate Doting - Chap 39
”You guys go out first, I’ll pack my things and go back to the base in the afternoon.”
After he finished speaking, several people sniffed and nodded and walked out. Sangbu brought in the bowl, and before Ji Tingyu stretched out his hand, He Zhuo had already taken it.
So a few seconds later, the team members heard the following conversation behind them:
”Put it on the table and let it cool before drinking.”
”Drink it now. It won’t become sweeter if you let it sit. It will only become more bitter if it cools down.”
”You’re really annoying me every day!”
”It’s just a dose of medicine, why are you acting so spoiled?”
”I farted–ah…wait, feed it slower…it’s all leaking out!”
The faces of the spectators were full of: ???
What leaked out?
Having said that, they refused to leave and retreated stealthily. Soon, a row of heads appeared in the crack of the door.
They saw Ji Tingyu sitting and He Zhuo standing, holding the bowl in one hand and pressing Ji Tingyu’s neck with the other, and forcing him to drink medicine with an expressionless face.
Surprisingly, Ji Tingyu was not angry at all. He drank the medicine from his hand without hesitation, and then glared at him with a stern face that looked like he wanted to eat two people: “I really pissed you off to death!”
He Zhuo raised his hand and plucked his little cat’s ear: “Next time if you drink half and spit out the other half, I will feed you in a different way.”
Hiss…how can I describe this feeling?
Too intimate, yet so natural as if they were supposed to be this way.
”Who is that person?” Rosalyn asked in a low voice.
”The guy who drove up the snowy mountain.”
”How come he and the boss have such a good relationship? It’s only been a few days, and we’ve been looking for him so hard, but it seems like they’ve found a friend in need is a friend indeed?”
”Hey, spring is here, and it’s time for the little animals to reproduce—”
”Shut up!” Mo Moqing tore the waist chain on his chest into a mess and ran out angrily.

After they left, Ji Tingyu asked He Zhuo, “Who do you think the undercover is?”
”First eliminate Meng Fan.”
”Why?”
Because in your previous life you gave up your ears and legs but failed to save him, the big rabbit died in the Neville robbery.
He Zhuo sighed and said, “He admires you very much.”
”Yeah.” This is the same as Ji Tingyu’s judgment.
”Then exclude the desert green.”
”Huh?” Ji Tingyu was a little surprised: “Why don’t you doubt Xiaoqing? I thought you disliked him so much that you would take the opportunity to add insult to injury, and Xiaoqing and I are the closest.”
”I just don’t like him. Why would I frame him? And I’m sure it’s not him.”
”Tell me why.” He wanted to know what outsiders thought.
He Zhuo suddenly fell silent, feeling mixed emotions.
In his previous life, Ji Tingyu’s team members had been completely reshuffled, and only Mo Shaqing was still there, but he failed to save Ji Tingyu.
Two hours before Ji Tingyu’s death, Mo Moqing was killed on the way from Nivelle to Syst. He was shot seven times, lost too much blood, and froze to death. He was holding the candy that Ji Tingyu gave him until his death.
It was He Zhuo who collected his remains and buried them next to Ji Tingyu.
”Because the way he looks at you, it’s like you’re everything to him.”
He Zhuo’s voice sounded slowly, like the sound of a violin that had been played alone for decades in the back alleys of Broadway, full of regret and powerlessness.
He will always be grateful to the young boy who risked his life to save Ji Tingyu. If possible in this life, he will also help Sha Moqing avoid a tragic fate.
But this does not mean that he will be willing to give up his lover.
Ji Tingyu smiled, and his heart softened when he thought of his brother. “Of course I won’t doubt him. Xiaoqing is a good kid.”
”I found him in the desert with my mother when I was eight years old. He was still in his original form, a little over one year old, curled up in the only oasis in the desert, almost dying of thirst. Do you know what he was doing?”
”Pray for rain.”
”Go to hell!” Ji Tingyu bumped into him. “He’s pecking at the cactus. What a tenacious vitality! Even such a small eagle knows how to fight to survive.”
”Your mother adopted him?”
”Yes, when I was a child, my mother was busy with work and my brother was abroad, so we always depended on each other. I raised him as my own brother. I know his character and his feelings for me best, and he would never betray me.”
He Zhuo looked into Ji Tingyu’s eyes and thought: Actually, you don’t understand, he doesn’t even consider you as a brother.
In his previous life, it was because of my appearance that he suddenly married you, which prevented him from expressing his feelings for you until his death.
He Zhuo once thought, if the person who married Ji Tingyu was Mo Moqing, would he be happier.
Even if he couldn’t change his fate in Syst in the end, at least Desert Green could give him the purest love for three years.
Rather than forcing and hurting…
-
To express his gratitude, Ji Tingyu left a lot of guns and anesthetic bullets for Sangbu and Big Beard. He Zhuo took out a sapphire tie clip, which was made by the same designer as the previous watch cufflinks.
”Considering this as my advance congratulations on your marriage.” He pinned the tie clip on Nian’s shirt collar.
The bearded man reluctantly hugged this guy who looked cold but was actually very warm-hearted, “But Damon, I don’t even have a decent tie.”
”Then go buy one. You can’t ask me to pay for this too.” He Zhuo said with a smile, “Remember to ask Sangbu to help you choose. Your taste is really a disaster.”
As night falls, the setting sun sets over the snow-capped mountains.
Ji Tingyu had already had the car loaded up in front. He turned around and looked at them, and found that He Zhuo was also looking at him.
”Why do I always see myself in your eyes whenever I look back?”
His own ice-blue eyes reflected in them—this was the most common scene in the profile he made of He Zhuo.
The bearded man walked away tactfully. He Zhuo came to Ji Tingyu, raised his hand, and gently smoothed the hair around his ears.
