Tit For Tat (Beloved Enemy) - Chap 117
YuanYang did not say those words casually. When he returned home, he really started to prepare to go with GuQingPei to his hometown.
GuQingPei knew that even if he wanted to prevent him from doing so, he won’t be able to. But when he really thought of taking YuanYang home to formally introduce him to his parents, he felt a bit nervous.
The last time YuanYang came uninvited. At the time, he had always thought that he and YuanYang had reached an end. But this time it is different; he and YuanYang is determined to be together, to completely start over. This time going back, isn’t it just like formally bringing his boyfriend home? His parents should be very happy right? His mother’s impression of YuanYang seems to be very good…
When GuQingPei was twisting and turning, unable to sleep, a powerful arm pulled his waist from behind.
YuanYang used the tip of the nose to rub GuQingPei’s back, “Can’t sleep?”
“Yea, maybe I drank too much tea. I disturbed you?”
“How can I sleep when you keep turning?”
“Then I’m going to get up and sit for a while, you sleep first…” After saying that, he wanted to get out of bed.
YuanYang pulled him back, “Don’t. It’s cold, just lay down. Since you can’t sleep, how do you want me to keep you company? Tell me. Should we do another round?” YuanYang touched GuQingPei’s warm belly. Even though his mouth said such lewd words, his movements were not sexual, just merely softly touching.
GuQingPei laughed twice. He turned his body to face YuanYang, “Let’s just talk.”
“Okay.”
The two people’s gaze converged in the darkness. They can only see each other’s eyes; the warming emotions expressed are enough to explain everything.
GuQingPei says softly, “When you see my parents tomorrow, take out some of your elite business entrepreneur persona. Don’t be like two years ago, just a glance and one can tell that you’re just a brat.”
“But your parents liked me anyway.”
“That’s because my dad respects me. My mom, isn’t it because you’re handsome? But no matter how one looks at you, you don’t look like a person that can be with anyone for the rest of their lives.”
YuanYang raised his eyebrows and pouted his lips in a smile, “Don’t worry, this time I will perform well. I will definitely let your parents know that their son is betrothed to a reliable man.”
GuQingPei smiled, “Still trying to brag.”
“How am I bragging? Are you still afraid that I will not serve you well? Huh?” YuanYang kneaded his ass and said purposely, “Didn’t I serve you well?”
GuQingPei patted his cheeks and lightly smiled, “Good enough, the small wolf dog has grown up.”
YuanYang furrowed his brows, “What small wolf dog? When was I ever small?”
“Don’t talk nonsense. I wanted to talk to you about something serious.”
“What? Say it?”
“YuanYang, have you…ever thought of having children?”
YuanYang paused, “Are you thinking about it?”
“My parents forced me to consider it.”
“Then what do you plan on doing?”
“I promised them that I would give them one within two years.”
YuanYang’s expression was a bit frustrated, “I am the most annoyed with things like this.”
“I also don’t want to raise a child, but my parents are old, there is no other way.”
“I know, actually … my mom also mentioned it, saying that even if I am with you, I must still have children. I’ll also need to give them a child sooner or later.”
“I thought the same. On the positive side, with a child the home would feel more like a family.”
YuanYang didn’t say anything. When he thought of the word “home” and forming a “family” with GuQingPei, this proposal is really tempting.
GuQingPei suddenly sighed, “YuanYang, do you really want to be with me for the rest of your life?”
Hearing this, YuanYang got angry, “Fuck, I’ve fought so hard for you, you are still doubting this? Do you feel a bit of conscience when saying these words?”
GuQingPei touched the hair on top of his head appeasingly and said in a soothing manner, “YuanYang, I am much older than you after all. There are going to be times when I’m really not sure.”
YuanYang responded hoarsely, “What is there to be unsure about? I was the one that pursued you from the beginning. It hasn’t been easy for me get you. Do you think I’ll let you run away?”
GuQingPei smiled, “But didn’t you minded that I’m old….”
“Are you going to continue talking about this to no end? I was just trying to piss you off and you still remember it to now?”
“I say that you have nothing better to do, why try to piss me off? Want to fight?”
“Can’t I just fucking want to see you furious? I tell you. When we first bumped into each other in the bathroom after you had returned to the country, I wanted to strip you and throw you down on the marble floor to give you a fierce fuck. Seeing you reminded me of the time you left without a word. I was so angry that I just wanted to beat the crap out of you.”
GuQingPei raised his voice, “Okay, Okay. I was full of resentment toward you back then. Do you really want to see who is more of an asshole?”
When YuanYang heard this, he felt a bit pathetic. Holding onto GuQingPei’s waist, he mumbled, “We agreed that you won’t blame me.”
GuQingPei turned and lay on top of him, kissing his lips, “I don’t blame you. You also don’t blame me, alright?”
YuanYang kissed him passionately. Then he held onto his waist and turned over, pressing GuQingPei beneath him and gently says, “I am terribly cheap. I couldn’t bear to blame you. Going forward, I’ll give in to you on everything. I have no other request; only that you genuinely stay by my side and be devoted only to me. I, YuanYang, will treat you well for life. What I say, I will do.”
GuQingPei encircled his neck, tipping their foreheads together and says genuinely, “I’ll be devoted only to you. What I say, I will do.”
YuanYang embraced him tightly in his arms.
YuanYang took a bunch of things and followed GuQingPei back to his hometown. If this was back in ancient times, it would likely be considered as dowry, as all these things are so huge in size that even GuQingPei knitted his brows when he saw it.
Because the Gu elders didn’t drive, his friend came to pick them up at the airport. When they arrived at the downstairs of GuQingPei’s family home, the three men grabbed all the huge items and brought it upstairs, exhausted and sweating profusely in the process.
When Mother Gu caught sight of YuanYang, she immediately pulled GuQingPei to the side and asked him what was going on.
GuQingPei felt a bit embarrassed. He still remembered that he had vowed half a year ago that it was impossible for him and YuanYang. In the blink of an eye, he had brought this person home. However, Mother Gu doesn’t care about his contradictory actions, she only cared to know whether she was really going to have a male daughter-in law.
After settling down all the huge items, the friend left. The two men sat down on the couch. Tea had already been prepared and set on the tea table. The two Gu elders have been patiently waiting for them.
YuanYang says warmly, “Uncle, aunt, we haven’t seen for more than two years.”
Mother Gu smiled, “It really is so. In fact, that time really isn’t long but how come it feels like you have changed so much? Just at a glance and I can see that you’ve mature a lot.”
Father Gu also said, “Really, in the past you look like a graduate student; now you look like an adult.”
YuanYang lightly smiled, “I’ve experienced a lot these two years.”
Father Gu lighted up a cigarette, “That’s a good thing, a good thing.” After saying that, he glanced at GuQingPei.
GuQingPei immediately added, “Dad, mom, you have always wanted me to bring someone back. I’ve done that today. Let’s not talk about the things in the past; it’s too complicated to explain. In any case, from now on YuanYang and I are seriously committed.”
Mother Gu almost sobbed, “It’s good that you’re both seriously committed. Mom has been looking forward to you being able to settle down, having that person on your side to care for you. This is just great.”
YuanYang seriously said, “It has not been easy for me and him to get to where we are today. Please don’t worry about us.”
GuQingPei smile as he looked at his parents, his eyes were warm and steady, “Dad, mom, we also want to discuss the issue regarding children with you.”
“That’s good.” When the two elders heard the word “children,” both of their eyes shimmered.
“I’m still keeping the promise that I made about giving you a grandson or granddaughter to play with within two years. YuanYang’s side of the family also wanted us to have a child. But YuanYang is still young. We’ll do it in a few years. I must say first, I only wanted one, no matter boy or girl.”
“That’s no problem. We don’t have preferential for boys over girls; just one is good enough. You’re busy with work so we’ll take care of the child.” Mother Gu’s smile is so wide that she can’t even close her mouth.
That night, she made a large table of homemade dishes. GuQingPei hadn’t tasted his mother’s cooking for a long time so he ate a lot. YuanYang’s mind was not on the gourmet food but fully fixated on trying to please his mother-in law.
At 10 o’clock in the evening, GuQingPei had intended to take YuanYang to a hotel.
Mother Gu surprisingly asked, “Why are you going to the hotel, you can just stay here?”
“Isn’t the guest room full of things?” GuQingPei couldn’t react for a moment.
Mother Gu said with a smile, “Just sleep in your room, it has a big bed.”
Father Gu stared at the TV, not even giving them a glance, pretending as if he didn’t hear them.
GuQingPei was somewhat embarrassed. He looked at YuanYang and smiled, “What do you say?”
YuanYang put his suitcase on the floor and smiled, “Of course, I’ll stay here.”
