Tit For Tat (Beloved Enemy) - Chap 7
When six o’clock arrived, Yuan Yang was like a wife who can’t sit on a stool. He moved like his butt was on fire, and he rushed Gu Qing Pei fiercely saying, “Hurry up already.”
Gu Qing Pei nodded his head, but his eyes hadn’t left the document yet, and he took another look. He then cleaned up his own stuff and went downstairs.
Yuan Yang’s car was quite in line with his personality. It was a rough and arrogant Hummer, so the shape of the car was quite suitable for him. Gu Qing Pei did not know what to think of it. He remembered seeing a man drive the same Hummer some time ago. No car was supposed to be this high, it was funny, and Gu couldn’t help laughing.
Yuan Yang has always felt Gu Qing was too fake. As soon as he saw him laughing, he couldn’t help but contemplate what he was thinking. It was definitely not a good thing. He roughly opened the door and sat in the car.
Gu Qing Pei opened the door to the back seat, after he thought for a moment, he closed it again, and then climbed into the co-pilot seat.
Yuan Yang scoffed said, “Do you really want to sit here? Don’t you love the view? Great leader indeed.”
Gu Qing laughed, “I haven’t sat in a Hummer before, I think the front view must be good. I feel that.”
Yuan Yang gave him a look, “Address?”
Gu Qing Pei said his address. Yuan Yang, the driver started the car and looking at his boss, Yuan drove out.
When Gu Qing Pei got into Yuan Yang’s car, he thought that Yuan Yang must be the kind of driver who drove as if he was in a war, trying to rampage through things and grabbing the upper hand. He thought the guy would at least try to scare him. So, when Gu saw him wear his seatbelt and drive sedately and stably also abiding the law while doing so, he couldn’t bear to stay quiet, “I thought you liked to drive fast.”
Yuan Yang eyelids did not lift their eyes . “If I did so, you would end up as what? Sick?”
Gu Qing Pei smiled. “Yes, I don’t want to go home. I will take you to dinner.”
Yuan Yang not only ignored him, but also did not intend to eat with him. He only wanted to drop him at his place quickly, why should dinner be involved?
“You don’t want to eat with me, right? But you still have to stop at the XX Mall. You have to buy a few business suits. Buy them today. You can’t wear a jean or t-shirt to work tomorrow.”
“I will do it myself.”
“I want to see what you buy with my own eyes.”
“You’re a damn annoying thing, my dad asked you to be a babysitter?”
Gu Qing Pei laughed. “I’ll get a sense of how to not bring up my children in advance. It starts like this, but I think no child will ever be more difficult than you.”
Yuan Yang sneered, “You must do good in the first one. Take your time and observe the child.”
“As I said, any time. I’m waiting.”
Yuan Yang bit his teeth and parked the car into XX mall. It was dinnertime and not many people were shopping. The two men went to the men’s wear area.
It seemed that Yuan Yang was particularly annoyed to buy clothes. When he entered the shop, he said to the clerk: “All sizes are suitable. No need to try any.”
The clerk said in surprise, “Sir, I still want you to try them. You are too tall. We may not have your particular size.”
Yuan Yang eyelids rolled in his eyes. “You pick the right one and I’ll try it out. Get me something big enough.”
The clerk gave a weird look and went to select a few pairs. A set of suits that would probably fit were handed to him.
Yuan Yang style of doing things was very similar to the style of army life. He was particularly fast in selecting and trying on clothes. Yuan Yang grabbed the clothes and went in. Then he came out. His figure was too good that he could do modelling and sell clothes. With his body, he could wear anything and still look good. A few female employees’ eyes scanned him from top to bottom and checked out his well-defined muscles.
Gu Qing Pei smiled and admired him. “He is so handsome.”
Yuan Yang turned a deaf ear and ignored how good he looked in the clothes. He asked the clerk, “This fit, right?”
“Fits…. fits.”
“All of the same size. Pick a set, hurry up.” Yuan Yang was tired of wasting time on such matters, not to mention he was now extremely eager to just be away from Gu Qing, he just want to quickly get rid of him.
Gu Qing Pei nodded. “It is not a matter of buying more sets. With your salary, you can’t even afford to buy a shirt.”
Yuan Yang ignored him.
When the clerk chose clothes, Gu Qing Pei was not sitting idle and he also tried two sets of clothes. He was the kind of customer that the clerk liked best. He was mature and handsome. He was physically fit. He would listen carefully to their opinions. He will also discuss with them with a gentleman’s smile, and finally buy all the sets he tried.
The two men spent half an hour in the shop. When they came out, they had bought a pile of things. For Yuan Yang it was life and death, he refused to go to any other shop to check for more clothes. He was urging him to hurry.
Gu Qing Pei’s stomach growled at him, so he suggested, “Yuan Yang, come eat a meal with me. Are you not hungry?”
Yuan Yang glanced at him. “I don’t rely on old men.”
Gu Qing Pei shook his head helplessly. “That’s OK, you drive me back.”
Originally Gu had intended to eat a meal with Yuan Yang, to ease the atmosphere, because if Yuan knew that he had broken the source of income, he would certainly be thunderous. Gu was still a little worried.
Yuan Yang returned Gu Qing Pei to his home at the fastest speed.
Before getting off the car, Gu Qing Pei said, “We need to be at the office by half past eight, you have to reach here by seven o’clock.”
Yuan Yang frowned “What are you going to be doing so early?”
He never got up that late, he usually got up for a run at five o’clock every day. Sometimes he gets back to sleep for a while, but generally he was awake after seven. Since the habit was fostered in the army for many years so, it didn’t allow him to be lazy, but he does not want to see Gu Qing Pei so early.
“From my home to the company, it takes about 40 minutes, to factor in the time reserved for a possibility of traffic jam. I would also like to go to the company to have breakfast. It’s not too early. I’m worried that you can’t get up early so I’m giving you plenty of time. Oh, I forgot to ask you, where does your family live?”
Yuan Yang said, “It’s not far, I’ll be here at seven.”
“Ok, see you tomorrow.”
Yuan was waiting for him to get off.
Gu Qing Pei had just opened the door. “Oh, you’ll bring up what I’ve bought. I’ll also want the computer.”
Yuan Yang stared, “You addicted to your controlling people…aren’t you?”
Gu Qing Pei said quite innocently, “Either as an assistant or as a driver, you have to do all this. Kids these days really do not understand anything, ah. You are living good, thanks to a good family.”
Yuan Yang fiercely pounded the steering wheel, Gu Qing’s mouth would kill him with madness. If he did not rectify this man, he swore he will change his surname.
Motherfucker!
Heangrily jumped out of the car and took out Gu Qing Pei’s stuff from the backseat. Even his computer bag was carried over. He angrily said,”Go.”
GuQing Pei smiled slightly as he turned his back.
What a funny and tender brain this boy had. Hecarried all the things Gu bought, and followed him to the elevator.
Afterthe door was opened, the room was dark and quiet. Gu Qing Pei pressed theswitch and the living room light went on. It was a medium-sized apartment withtwo bedrooms, two living rooms and two bathrooms. The location was excellent.It was very suitable for a person to live in. The decoration was quite tasteful,and the house was kept clean and spotless, but it seems particularly deserted,as if it were unoccupied.
YuanYang frowned. “You’re not married?”
GuQing Pei laughed and said, “Divorced.”
Yuan Yang shot him a sly laugh, “I guessed so. You’re such a high maintenanceperson. A woman will be stupid to shack up with you. Sooner or later, she wouldsee what you really are. ”
GuQing leaned his head and thought about it. “Don’t say it, you’reright.”
YuanYang tossed his things on the floor. “It’s okay, big leader.”
“Areyou not hungry?” Gu Qing Pei took off his coat. “I’m very good atcooking, do you want to try it?”
“Youwhip and then apply sugar on the wound, do you think I’m a fool?”
GuQing’s reluctantly said, “How do I say it? The elders will not be familiarwith you.”
YuanYang gave him a look, “Keep your food to yourself.” Then he turnedand walked away.
GuQing Pei shrugged, and thought the kid had brains so it wasn’t going to be easydealing with him ah.
