Tit For Tat (Beloved Enemy) - Chap 39
GuQingPei won 200,000 yuan in a game of golf. WangJin won 300,000 yuan. Therefore, WangJin made reservations at a restaurant and treated the group to a seafood feast.
YuanYang had wanted to get GuQingPei home but he saw that GuQingPei was in high-spirits and had started to discuss cooperation projects with WangJin. The two men were immersed in their discussion and didn’t even bother looking at YuanYang.
YuanYang sulked all afternoon. The more he looked at WangJin, the more he felt that this person’s smiling face was too hypocritical and the way he looked at GuQingPei is definitely not quite right.
WangJin was literally holding onto GuQingPei to toast him during the meal. GuQingPei was no loser (to drinking). His expression didn’t change even after drinking much white wine. Later, it was apparent that WangJin was the one who lacked alcohol tolerance, so he stopped it.
GuQingPei proposed several promising projects. He is a naturally gifted speaker, talking non-stop in describing the prospects of these projects that arouses peoples’ interests endlessly. YuanYang had already seen the information on some of them; there were issues with disputes over property rights that have not yet been resolved but coming out of GuQingPei’s mouth, it sounded as if it was nothing.
In terms of bragging, GuQingPei will definitely not lose to anyone.
After the meal, YuanYang went to get the car. WangJin waited with GuQingPei at the restaurant’s entrance.
WangJin was a little drunk; unknowing whether it was intentional or not, he leaned toward GuQingPei’s body.
GuQingPei quickly supported him and smiled, “Chairman Wang, your alcohol tolerance is weak and still wanted to get me drunk.”
WangJin smiled and waved his hand, “My bad… my bad, I didn’t observe well at the enemy’s intelligence.”
“Chairman Wang, your car is here, go in first”
“No, no, I’ll wait for you to get in the car first.” WangJin held onto his waist lightly and lighted smiled, “Director Gu, today we hit it off so well, whether it is playing golf or eating, it’s is very joyous. Email me the information on those projects you mentioned tonight. I’ll seriously consider them. Next time I’ll invite Director Gu out alone for a meal.”
“It is my privilege to get to know Chairman Wang. I’m honored that Chairman Wang thinks so highly of me. No matter how busy I am later on, I’ll definitely attend Chairman Wang’s invite. After Chairman Wang look over the information, give me a call. Anything that is unclear, I’ll help you clarify it.”
“Great. Hey, Director Gu, your car is almost here.”
From the inside of the car, YuanYang could see WangJin’s hand on GuQingPei’s waist, he started to burn with rage. He stepped his foot harshly on the gas pedal, a very loud noise rumbled from the car as it sped forward at frightening speeds, abruptly stopping on the two people’s side, scaring them out of their wits.
YuanYang got out of the car as GuQingPei angrily shouted, “Is that how you drive!?”
WangJin’s expression is also not very good. After drinking, any sort of provocation will be heightened. It was already a bit intimidating earlier.
YuanYang insincerely responded, “I thought the gas pedal was the brake, accidentally stepped on the wrong one.”
WangJin shook his head and stepped forward. Despite drinking and his legs somewhat wobbly, he still courteously opened the door for GuQingPei, exposing a charming smile, “Director Gu, go in.”
GuQingPei said a few polite words and bid his farewell before getting into the car.
YuanYang hastily drove away.
Looking from the rear mirror, YuanYang could see GuQingPei resting and leaning on the seat with his eyes closed. He said in very displeasing tone, “You and that whatever ‘da’ chairman seems to have a lot in common.
GuQingPei lazily voiced, “He’s a very capable person. We can talk about many things.”
YuanYang didn’t want to appear narrow-minded but he also couldn’t pretend as though he didn’t care. He couldn’t help himself from pettily criticizing, “You can’t talk to me, right?”
“With you? What can we talk about? The difficulties of entrepreneurship, the stock market, management, capital, or politics? You’re such an ignorant and incompetent young master, you tell me, what can we talk about?”
YuanYang slammed on the brakes.
GuQingPei’s body suddenly propelled forward and he nearly threw up.
YuanYang is furious; his hand that is holding the steering wheel trembled. Even though GuQingPei’s words were ear-piercingly harsh, he couldn’t refute it. When he seriously pondered over it, he and GuQingPei, besides ridiculing and being cruel to one another, it seems that they really haven’t seriously talked about anything nor have they even calmly and peacefully talked. Infact, their conversations often ends with them attacking and mocking each other.
Thinking that WangJin and GuQingPei could talk and laugh, happily conversing, YuanYang is so enraged that he wanted to hit someone. But not having any common topics to talk with GuQingPei was really not something he had ever considered or think would make him resentful.
GuQingPei braced himself with his back, “Damn, can you drive a little more carefully, I almost threw up.”
YuanYang responded resentfully, “You deserve it. If you die from drinking, well so be it.” He restarted the car but his eyes were still burning with rage.
He bitterly thought that the relationship between him and GuQingPei is nothing more than fuck buddies; just fucking each other is enough. Why do they need to have common topics to talk about? But thinking in such ways did not make his heart feel at peace; instead, it made him feel worse.
After they got to GuQingPei’s house, YuanYang also followed him up the stairs.
GuQingPei glanced at him, “You’re not going back (to your home)?”
“It’s too late, lazy to drive back.” He took off his shoes, treating GuQingPei’s home as if it was his own home and went into the house.
GuQingPei was too lazy to stop him so he just let him do whatever. He went to take a shower. When he came out, he saw that YuanYang was still sitting on the couch with his head turned, looking out the windows, not knowing what he was thinking.
After the shower, GuQingPei had sobered up, “You’re just planning on sitting there all night??”
YuanYang turned his head and looked at GuQingPei’s suave appearance. Thinking that this person now belongs to him, his heart felt a bit better.
He got up and leaned onto GuQingPei, snuffling his hair, “Hmmm (sniffing sound), the wine taste is washed out.”
GuQingPei yawned, “I’m tired. You do whatever.” He turned to walk into the bedroom.
When YuanYang came out from taking a shower, GuQingPei was already deeply asleep under the blanket, breathing evenly and smoothly.
YuanYang climbed into bed, flipped the blanket and got under. Seeing the back of GuQingPei’s head with his back facing him, suddenly he was quite unhappy.
He reached out and turned GuQingPei over.
GuQingPei narrowed his eyes, “What are you doing? I’m very sleepy.”
“It’s not like I’m not letting you sleep, you just can’t have your back to me.”
GuQingPei lazily ignored him and closed his eyes again.
YuanYang reached his hand out to turn off the light; the moon’s light reflected on GuQingPei’s face. Although the rays of light is dim but his facial features are still clearly visible. YuanYang can’t help but kissed his nose. GuQingPei wrinkled his nose but didn’t open his eyes.
YuanYang didn’t care whether GuQingPei heard it or not as he whispered, “I’m annoyed with that Wang guy. In the future, don’t hang out with him that much.” After he said that, he put his hand on GuQingPei’s waist and slowly closed his eyes.
GuQingPei opened his eyes and looked at YuanYang face’s in close proximity, his eyes sparkling.
When GuQingPei woke up the next morning, YuanYang had already returned from his run and had prepared breakfast.
“Come eat.” YuanYang’s tone was a bit cold. It was obvious that he had not gotten over his anger from yesterday’s incident.
“You are very diligent in this regard.”
YuanYang said indifferently, “This is such a simple and easy thing to do, what’s so hard?”
GuQingPei ate while saying, “Lawyer Zhao needed me to go to XX City. He’s contacted a leader and asked us to put in some effort to get this pushed forward so there could be a quick verdict. You go with me and help get the referral to meet up with him. I want to have a chat with him. With beneficial matters, I don’t trust delegating it to other people.”
“Okay.”
“This trip is confidential so don’t tell anyone.”
“Yeah.” YuanYang continued to eat.
GuQingPei raised his brows, “What’s wrong with you today, forgot to recharge (T/N)?”
T/N) – 充電 recharge; rest and recuperate
YuanYang glared at him, “Isn’t it that we have nothing in common to talk about? Are you still not satisfied with me not saying much?”
“You brat is more unforgiving than a woman. Before, YuanYuan…” GuQingPei realized that he shouldn’t have said something so immediately closed his mouth.
Sure enough, YuanYang raised his head and stared at GuQingPei, “YuanYuan? That ex-wife of yours? What about her? Addressing her so affectionately ah.”
GuQingPei furrowed his brows looking at him, “How did you know that YuanYuan is my ex-wife? Did you investigated me?”
“What’s there to investigate? It’s clearly written in the family register.” YuanYang put down his chopsticks, “Since she’s an ex-wife, why speak of her intimately? Aren’t you gay?”
“We’re still friends.” GuQingPei didn’t want to talk about this at all. His face becoming grim, “Don’t butt into my affairs in the future.”
YuanYang humph, “Who cares about your affairs?” Thinking that he had already asked about ZhaoYuan, he explained, “I have a buddy in the public security system. I just blurted out asking him about it.”
GuQingPei mildly added, “Don’t even blurt it out in the future.”
YuanYang’s face was a bit unsightly as he furiously uttered, “Who the fuck cares to ask about your affairs? Don’t be so full of yourself. Hurry up and eat; Saying all this bullshit so early in the morning.”
GuQingPei buried his head and continued eating, not paying any attention to him.
YuanYang is full of rage as he irritably cleaned up the table after GuQingPei had finished eating.
Driving to work, YuanYang did not speak to GuQingPei. GuQingPei was more than happy. He even closed his eyes and rested in the car for a while.
For an entire day, YuanYang did not appear in GuQingPei’s office.
This is quite uncommon. Usually YuanYang will barge into his office for nothing in particular other than “the couch in his office is comfortable” as he so puts it. Especially at noon, he always takes a nap on his bed. But today, there is no shadow of him, nor did he bring GuQingPei his lunch.
This peaceful calmness, instead, made GuQingPei feel a bit unaccustomed.
He laughed at himself a few times. It seemed that he had been so use to YuanYang that when YuanYang didn’t come to bother him for a day, he actually felt that something is wrong. People… can be so cheap.
Even though he was not use to this peacefulness, GuQingPei felt exceptionally relaxed. He did not expect YuanYang to pick him up after work so he planned on walking to a Thai restaurant near the company for dinner to avoid the peak hours of hailing for a taxi home.
Perhaps he should take a few girls from the company out to eat and watch a movie. They’ve worked so hard…..
GuQingPei called Zhang Xia and tells her to come into his office.
Very soon, Zhang Xia knocked on his door.
GuQingPei leaned back in his chair and smiled at her with his eyes squinting, “Xiao Zhang, are there any good movies released lately?”
“Oh. There is a disaster film with storming at sea, I forgot what the name is.”
“Go ask and see if anyone in the company wants to go watch it. Reserve the tickets for those that want to. I’ll treat you guys out to see a movie tonight.”
“Wow, really Director Gu?”
GuQingPei laughed, “Would I say something that’s not true? Everyone shouldn’t rush to leave after work. There is a nice restaurant near the company. I have a friend who brought back some fine wine from France. Let’s go to the restaurant. I’ve been here for so long have not had dinner with you all. Tonight, on behalf of Chairman Yuan, I’ll reward you guys with a feast.”
Zhang Xia said happily, “Thanks much Director Gu. I’ll go tell them.”
After work, those who did not want to go see the movie had left. There were twenty to thirty people left behind in the company.
After handling some work issues, GuQingPei got ready to head out. YuanYang came back.
GuQingPei was shocked when he saw him, “Why are you back?”
YuanYang raised his eyebrows, “I work here. How could I not come back?”
“I’m taking them to dinner and a movie tonight. You wanna come? ”
“I heard about that.” He looked at him with his arms folded on his chest, “I’m your driver. Of course I’ll go if you go.”
“If you don’t want to go, you could leave first. Don’t have to drive me.”
“I need to go.” YuanYang stared at him, “If I let you go alone, who knows if you’ll end up seducing some weirdo home.”
GuQingPei furrowed his brows, “What shit are you talking about?”
YuanYang walked forward and picked up the laptop bag that he had always carried with him and he coldly groaned, “Let’s go, Director Gu.”
During dinner, the young people in the company also drank some liquor, each taking turns to toast GuQingPei. However, he had good alcohol tolerance so it didn’t affect him too much. But a few people went home early after drinking just two glasses.
That night, they watched a US blockbuster movie about sea storms. The 3d visual effects are done extremely well. Only ten minutes into the movie, the sea storm scenes started and everyone watched attentively.
YuanYang was sitting beside GuQingPei. His mind was not on the movie but on GuQingPei.
He had endured and endured, finally he moved close to GuQingPei’s ears and whispered, “Why did you and ZhaoYuan divorce?”
GuQingPei initially ignored him. When YuanYang asked the second time, GuQingPei was still staring at the movie screen but responded with a very soft-voice, “Is it the right time to be asking about this now?”
“Just answer it.”
GuQingPei sighed, “Because I’m gay. Are you satisfied with this answer?”
YuanYang smirked, “Sure.”
Silenced for a while, YuanYang once gain leaned toward GuQingPei, “Do you still plan to get married later? Your parents won’t interfere?”
GuQingPei continued to look intently at the screen but his tone was very impatient, “You’re interfering too much.”
“Answer the question.”
“None of your business.”
YuanYang’s face sank.
When GuQingPei finally thought that YuanYang would stop bothering him and allow him to concentrate on watching the movie, a hand suddenly reached under his arm, startling him.
It was hot in the movie theater so GuQingPei had placed his jacket over his lap. YuanYang’s thieving hand quietly reached over and under this jacket to grab his baby (cock) atop his pants.
GuQingPei glared at him lividly, YuanYang looked at him proudly. In fact, he even provocatively poked the soften flesh with his fingers.
GuQingPei gnashed his teeth, “Are you crazy!?” There are people sitting on both sides of them. Although the movie theater is very dark, but if someone was to turn just a little, they would be able to see something oddly going on in their direction.
Fortunately, at this time the movie was airing its most splendid scenes so no one turned their heads. But nevertheless, GuQingPei was so nervous and aroused that he was perspiring cold sweat.
YuanYang said sarcastically in an extremely low voice, “Director Gu, answer my question, will you still get married?”
GuQingPei lowly replied, “No, let go.”
YuanYang smiled with satisfaction on his face. He then leaned back on his chair but his evil hands didn’t stop its actions. Instead, it started to pull down GuQingPei zippers and brazenly reached in.
GuQingPei’s entire body trembled, having no choice but to hold onto his jacket tightly to cover his lower body. But it still can’t stop the provoking hand that deserved to be chopped off. GuQingPei could only bend his waist a little in trying to conceal his shock. But YuanYang’s hand became even more unrestrained, wanting to probe inside….
GuQingPei fiercely glared at him, whispering, “Enough!”
YuanYang could sense some hostility. Seeing GuQingPei’s furious expression dissipated his gloomy feelings from last night. He felt that he had had enough so he retracted his hand.
GuQingPei sighed with relief, even though he could no longer concentrate on watching the rest of the movie.
After the movie was over, it was already past 11 pm. The crowd rushed out to use the toilets. A few female colleagues lives in the same direction and were hitching a ride from them. GuQingPei and YuanYang sat in the car as they waited for the girls to come down.
When YuanYang got into the car, he opened the car’s window, wanting to smoke.
GuQingPei reached over to snatch the cigarette from his hand and bent down to throw it in the trash.
YuanYang glared at him, “What are you doing?”
GuQingPei smiled and leaned toward him “It was intensely arousing in theater just now. Was that fun?” In the midst of talking, GuQingPei’s hand is already resting on top of the crotch of YuanYang’s pants.
YuanYang was stunned. GuQingPei had never taken the initiative. Even his speech was not well-executed, “Ahhh…… it was quite fun.”
GuQingPei, “I still can’t tell that you’ve never been with men. Aren’t your two hands quite skilled? Or should I say that you practice on yourself all the time?” GuQingPei clasp onto his (YuanYang) zipper and deliberately forced it down.
YuanYang was so immersed in being aroused from GuQingPei’s first ever initiative that he completely lost his sense of awareness, “Those who wanted to sleep with me all have to wait in line, why would I need to masturbate? But as a man, I should know how to do it.” YuanYang raised the car’s windows. One of his hands gripped onto the back of GuQingPei’s head as he started to kiss him fiercely. He urged GuQingPei’s hand to move along with his movement (kisses).
GuQingPei didn’t disappoint him, his slender and agile fingers delved into his pants and skillfully kneaded his baby.
YuanYang panted heavily, completely immersed with the scenario in front of him.
Just when his tongue teasingly interwove with GuQingPei’s tongue, GuQingPei suddenly pushed him away, “They’re back. Hurry up and get out. Help them carry their stuff.”
“Huh?” Before YuanYang could even react to what was happening, GuQingPei had already helped him opened the car’s door and shoved him out.
The place where they parked was above the plaza. All around are people who have just finished watching the movie and about to head home. When YuanYang was pushed out from the car, the people around couldn’t help but turned to look at him. At the same time, they could also see that his zippers were open.
Following the gaze of the surrounding people and the company’s female colleagues, YuanYang lowered his head and immediately sees his black underwear.
The female colleagues unitedly laughed loudly.
YuanYang’s face immediately blushed. He quickly tried to pull his zippers up but no matter how he tried, he couldn’t. When he carefully looked, he noticed that his zipper is broken.
With a big strides forward, he went back into the car. Narrowing his eyes at GuQingPei, he gritted his teeth and said, “Using this gimmick?”
GuQingPei’s smile is mild and courteous, practically making people bathe in the spring breeze, “Just returning your favor from earlier.”
Before YuanYang even got the chance to thoroughly teach GuQingPei a lesson, several female colleagues had already got into the car. As expected, YuanYang was mocked and teased the entire way. In the end, his face was grim.
He first took GuQingPei home and then took the girls home one by one.
GuQingPei had already dried his hair after taking a shower. It was already half past twelve and he was planning on going to bed.
Staring at his watch, he decided to wait a little longer. This YuanYang kid, if he didn’t come tonight to get even with him, he’d have to change his surname.
Rather than being awakened after falling asleep, might as well wait till he comes to talk about it.
