Zhou Yun Sheng changed his clothes and went back to the dining room, before he could sit down he saw the young man who'd handled the traitor for Xue Yan last night walk in with a warm smile, followed by the frightened looking steward. From the words the two exchanged, this person was Xue Yan's most trusted aide, Xue Lao Si. Xue Jing Yi had already been called back to her room by the steward, so the man wouldn't be suspicious.
"Jing Yi, have you had breakfast?" Xue Lao Si greeted happily.
"I have not, have you?" Zhou Yun Sheng picked up a piece of toast.
"I've eaten, but Yan Ye hasn't eaten, he sent me to pick you up to accompany him for breakfast. Are you available?" Xue Lao Si smiled and plucked away the boy's toast, pushing it into his own mouth.
Zhou Yun Sheng pretended to look at the butler with a nervous expression.
The steward had already received Xue Rui's order, he smiled and said, "Go up and change your clothes."
Zhou Yun Sheng nodded and followed behind the steward. Xue Lao Si casually walked into the kitchen, took out a bottle of strawberry jam, and layered it onto his toast, seemingly uninterested.
"The one Yan Ye wants to see is the Miss, but the Miss is too sick to leave the house, so you must replace the Miss and pay Yan Ye a visit. Don't let him find out your true identity. Yan Ye is very hot tempered, you will face serious consequences if you annoy him. I'm sure you witnessed it last night." The steward threatened between words.
Zhou Yun Sheng knew what this family was all about, if you allowed them to use you once, they would treat your obedience and concession as a matter of course, mercilessly squeezing you for your last drop of surplus value. Only such people could raise a monster like Xue Zi Xuan; and they're the reason pure and kind Xue Jing Yi could easily go astray after just a little misleading.
His sneered inwardly while pretending to be frightened.
The steward was very satisfied with his cowardice, he pulled out a white crop shirt and skinny jeans from the closet, and helped him pick a pair of white sandals.
"Good, go on, remember not to let Yan Ye find out your identity." The butler pushed him out of the room and repeatedly warned him.
Zhou Yun Sheng obediently promised.
Xue Lao Si had already finished a plate full of strawberry jam toast and was elegantly wiping his mouth with a napkin, seeing the two men walking downstairs, he gathered himself up, gripped the boy's hand, and unceremoniously left.
"Look at the time, why haven't you had breakfast yet? You should pay more attention to your health." Zhou Yun Sheng walked into the dining room and unceremoniously pulled out and sat down in the seat beside Xue Yan's chair. He looked over the dining table, then dropped some steamed dumplings into the other man's plate.
"Is there congee?' I'd like some fish congee." He asked while passing the sauce, his attitude like he'd cohabitated with Xue Yan for ten years, not showing the slightest bit of Xue family's cautiousness and timidity.
Turns out he's a wolf in sheep's clothing, no wonder Xue Yan fell for him. Xue Lao Si pondered as he sat opposite the two, then he dragged two steamed dumplings into his own hand.
Zhou Yun Sheng shot him a quick glance. Xue Yan immediately knew what he was thinking, he smiled and said, "He can eat for 8 people a day. His family threw him to me because they couldn't afford to feed him."
Zhou Yun Sheng smiled openly and dipped a dumpling in a bit of sauce, placed it in his lover's bowl, then went into the kitchen for the congee.
As he walked away, Xue Lao Si was astonished, "You've really only known each other for three days? Why do you seem like you've known each other for three decades? Even an old couple doesn't get along so well."
Xue Yan concentrated on eating his buns, not paying him any attention. In fact, he didn't have a habit of eating breakfast, it was just an excuse to bring the boy over, but if he was very worried about his health, he could try to change, after all, they were going to be together. Counting today, they had only met three times, so it should be too early to make such a commitment, but he'd already subconsciously decided that the boy would be his life partner.
When he turned eighteen, he would marry him, and hand him half of Xue Clan. Thinking of this, Xue Yan exposed a gentle smile, making Xue Lao Si choke on his food in fright.
Zhou Yun Sheng walked out carrying a tray of three bowls of fish congee.
"Thank you, big sis." Xue Lao Si smiled mischievously and reached for a bowl of congee.
"Big sis huh, when are we getting married?" Zhou Yun Sheng stirred his congee, his attitude light and frank, like acknowledging the inevitable. Xue Lao Si choked on his mouthful of congee, almost coughing out his spleen.
Just what I was thinking, is this two hearts beating as one? Xue Yan chuckled and pulled the boy in for a kiss, then said softly, "As soon as you turn eighteen."
"That's still two years, so long." Zhou Yun Sheng put down his spoon and sighed, provoking more laughter from Xue Yan, who pulled him into his arms for an embrace. He liked the boy's eagerness and directness, and liked having him look at him as if he was the only one in the world worthy of his focus.
Being loved by him was the greatest blessing.
Xue Lao Si covered his eyes, inwardly sighing for Yan Ye this love struck fool.
After breakfast, Xue Yan brought the boy back to his bedroom. The villa had an elevator and many wheelchair ramps, allowing him to move around at ease.
"When are you leaving Xue house?" He steered the wheelchair to the closet.
"Soon." Zhou Yun Sheng sat cross-legged on the bed.
"How long will it take for 'soon'?" Xue Yan opened his closet and removed a set of brand new casual clothes, tossing them to the boy, "Put that on, you shouldn't wear female clothes all day. Your jeans are so tight, don't you feel uncomfortable?" As soon as the boy had walked in he'd noticed how his jeans tightly wrapped his long legs and made his butt stick out more.
