I Woke Up Pregnant With An Undead's Child-Chapter 72
Chapter 72: The Silkworm Road [6]
The party started at 8 pm. Zhang Qiu were unrestrained all afternoon and when he looked at his watch, it’s almost 7 pm. He hadn’t bought a formal suit yet, it gave him a headache. Qi Xi snorted and said, “Served you right, running so fast. I’m going to record the program.”
“With your (bruised) face?” Lookinglike this, Zhang Qiu really didn’t know how would Qi Xi appear on TV, when hecouldn’t be armed to the teeth?
Li Shu looked at Zhang Qiu and said lightly,“I didn’t use much strength. With his physique (divine beast), it willdissipate in an hour.”
He didn’t use much strength yet?! Qi Xi wasso angry; he rolled his eyes under the sunglasses and suddenly was all smiles beforehe said, “Xiao Qiuqiu, I knew you were worried about me. After all, whomade me so beautiful? When I come back in the evening, youl help me applyointment. Hahaha, I’ll go first.”
Upon seeing Li Shu’s calm face, Qi Xi washappy not staying in place and hastily ran away. Let see you hit LaoZi!
Zhang Qiu:…
After leaving, he was even asked to dig ahole (for himself)? If he had any kind of relationship with drama queen later,he was a pig!
“Haha, it suddenly occurred to me thatthe formal suits of the party have not been bought yet. I’ll take Xiao Jiang tobuy clothes.” Zhang Qiu carried Xiao Jiang broke into a run to leave.However, the collar behind him was pulled by Li Shu and his whole person wasleaning back against Li Shu’s chest.
Li Shu lowered his head and his eyes weredark as he said, “The clothes are already prepared. I’ll take you tochange them.”
“Already prepared? Eih, what my size do—wait,you don’t pull me, it hurts.” Zhang Qiu was dragged to the hotel by Li Shuas he yelled. As soon as Li Shu heard that, he felt uncomfortable, so hereleased his hand. Zhang Qiu was relieved, but then felt a strong arm aroundhis waist to take him into an embrace, and then he was carried to the hotel.
Xiao Shushu seemed to have become a bitoverbearing.
Anyway, hihihi he liked it.
Sure enough, there were three suits hangingin the living room. One was black, two were white with one size was big and theother was small. The small one was Xiao Jiang’s with a cute little bow tie.Xiao Jiang, who liked to show off his good looks shamelessly, climbed downZhang Qiu’s arm and ran over. With his dimples out, he pointed to the suits andsaid, “Daddy, mine.”
“The suit is yours, and your Daddy——”Li Shu looked at Zhang Qiu and smiled.
Zhang Qiu almost failed to live up to expectations and said 'I am yours', but Li Shuhanded him the other set of white ones. “This one is yours.”
“Why am I white? I want to wearblack.” White had the kind of pretty boy feeling to it. Zhang Qiupreferred to wear a bit manly clothes. He had meant to take advantage andchange the Top-Bottom position while Li Shu still losing his memory.
Li Shu looked up and down at Zhang Qiu.Zhang Qiu felt a little feverish all over his body. Recently, he seemed to betempted to want it. He didn’t knowwhat was going on.
“You can’t wear my size.” Li Shutouched Zhang Qiu’s side face and used Zhang Qiu’s usual voice when he coaxedXiao Jiang to say, “Be good, and go change clothes.”
With a giddy brain, Zhang Qiu grabbed thesuits and went to the bedroom to change. Xiao Jiang was bouncing with hislittle suits in his arms following behind. “Daddy, I’m going to changetoo.” Li Shu pinched Xiao Jiang’s face. He was in a good mood as he said whilesmiling, “Big Daddy will help you change.”
After changing his clothes, Zhang Qiu stoodin the doorway and suddenly felt a kind of nervousness as if Li Shu was waitinghim outside to be married. He didn’t know where this feeling came from, and itwas not that he hadn’t gone to a party in formal suits before.
“Lately, it seems that my heart has softenedand I even like to fantasize like a girl…” Zhang Qiu muttered as he handpulled open the door and at once saw Li Shu and Xiao Jiang standing in the livingroom. Li Shu dressed in black had outlined his good figure of long legs, wideshoulders, narrow waist, flat chest and abdomen. Still, he knew how good of afigure this man had when he took off his clothes. Xiao Jiang, like a littleflower boy, asked him happily, “Daddy, am I handsome?
He’s super cute.
But Zhang Qiu did not dare to say that hewas cute because Xiao Jiang recently learnt that the boys should be called handsome.Thus, he nodded his head and said seriously, “Great handsome bro.”
Xiao Jiang was so happy that he would waghis tail if he had one.
Zhang Qiu deliberately ignored the heatedgaze that seemed to melt him thrown on his body. In the end, he couldn’t bearit. His scalp felt numb and feverish. He raised his head and bumped into LiShu’s eyes, which the made his heart tightened. Li Shu’s crimson pupils seemedto attract him in.
“It-it doesn’t look good (on me)?”He thought it’s not bad; he looked quite young and dashing.
Li Shu came over, reached around Zhang Qiu’swaist, and his voice was low with a trace of sexy hoarseness. “I regretchoosing this set for you.” The white clothes against Zhang Qiu’s skinmade him looked beautiful. His narrow waist and rounded hips made Li Shu wantto tear his clothes off.
Zhang Qiu legs softened and he hung on LiShu. He couldn’t hear what Li Shu said at all.
*Knock*
Xiao Jiang said happily, “It’s Erbobo.I’ll open the door.” The he ran to open the door.
The voices of Zhang Yushui and Pixian HuiWang praising Xiao Jiang could be heard at the door. Zhang Yushui took theopportunity to hug Pixian Hui Wang and said, “Look how cute Xiao Jiang is.Our Phoenix’s Egg must be very cute.”
“Erbobo, Xiao Jiang is handsome!”Xiao Jiang emphasized.
Zhang YuShui increased the weight of histone, “Our Phoenix’s Egg must be as handsome as Xiao Jiang.”
“With you giving birth to eat, can.”When Pixian Hui Wang glanced sideways and smiled, Zhang YuShui almost wanted todo something unfit for children’s view. He cleared his throat and said to thetwo people inside, who were embracing, “The car is here. You can embraceall you want after we get back.”
Zhang Qiu blushed. His body was rolling withpassion being looked at by Li Shu, but he had to suppress the itching feeling.He hurried out and said, “Here we are.” He was shocked at his ownhoarse tone.
Pixian Hui Wang looked over with a smile andsaid, “Young people still need to practice restraint.”
“ErSao, you said that as if you are70-80 year old.” Zhang Qiu looked at ErSao’s gorgeous appearance, wherethere was none that looked aged.
Pixian Hui Wang laughed and said nothingmore.
There were two cars parked at the entranceof the hotel. Little Ling Dang and Pei Qing were already on the car. Today,little Ling Dang was also wearing white. Compared with Zhang Qiu’s youthful anddashing look, little Ling Dang’s look was as softly cute and lovely as XiaoJiang, tender and (look) delicious. Without looking at them, Pei Qing’s handsbegrudged to hit them. He wished he could let little Ling Dang return to thespirit bead, but he hated it if Ling Dang lost a lot of joy because of hispossessive desire. Therefore, he endured it.
They arrived at Gao House’s gate on time at8pm. The gate was opened as the cars drove in. The yard lights were shining. Anelegant music and low voices of conversation from inside could be heard.
Zhang Qiu and company got off the cars. Assoon as they entered the door, all eyes were on them. In fact, they were on thetoo outstanding appearance of Pixian Hui Wang and Li Shu. Zhang Qiu had been usedto this kind of look. Gao Zhihao, who had been talking to people in the crowd,immediately came out.
“Indeed, I’ve been looking forward toseeing you all. Have a good time today. If you need anything, just call forme.” Gao ZhiHao said with a smile, and finally looked at Li Shu with deep meaningin his eyes. “Brother Li Shu, have a good time. I have something to do;I’ll talk to you guys later.”
After that, Gao ZhiHao went to greet theother guests.
Zhang Qiu came here just to have drink andmeal. The chefs that Gao invited were good. Zhang Qiu and company didn’t knowthe people at the party. Even if someone was curious about their identity,nobody dared to come. It was actually Li Shu’s imposing manner that could scareoff the group of people.
After a while, Zhang YuShui got up withPixian Hui Wang. Zhang Qiu got a suspicious look on his face. Oh funny, he waspoked in the head by Erge. “What’s in your head?!”
“We’re going to meet the foreign TameHead Master.”
Zhang Qiu smiled. “Together?”
“There are too many eyes. The two of uswill do.” After Zhang YuShui said that, he pulled Pixian Hui Wang outleisurely.
Zhang Qiu was bored and sleepy after he’sfull. Little Ling Dang and Xiao Jiang were walking around the yard. Pei Qingcouldn’t rest assured and followed them up. Zhang Qiu saw at a glance and washappy that Pei Qing could look after Xiao Jiang without trouble, so he didn’tmind. Gao ZhiHao was a very good person. He had children’s playground facilitiesin the yard. The children came to play there and their laughter was verylovely.
Li Shu saw Zhang Qiu napping on the sofa,smiled and said, “Let’s go back if you are sleepy.”
“The Silkworm Road thing has not beencleared up; not going back.” Zhang Qiu said vaguely and then he suddenlyheard the screaming voice of children outside. It frightened Zhang Qiu with astartle. He immediately woke up. “Xiao Jiang!” He went outside in ahurry.
The other children in the living room alsoreacted and went outside.
When they arrived in the yard, many childrenwere lying on the ground crying in messy clothes. There were some who were screaming'there are ghosts', 'scary, mama'with their eyes covered and so on.
When Zhang Qiu saw Xiao Jiang sitting calmlyon the swing and belching a little, he knew that his son had eaten extra meals.
[hehehe]
“It should be that Erge had disposedthe Tame Head Master and several of these grieving ghosts were released.”Li Shu said, “The children’s eyes are clean, they are subjected to befrightened.”
Gao ZhiHao came out with a worried face.“What’s the matter? Quick, go and prepare some warm drinks to give the childrento alleviate the shock.”
The guests that came were all Chengdu’swealthy and prestigious families. At this time, they were all holding their ownchildren to coax. The children were saying that they did not want to stay here,crying heart-brokenly that they wanted to go home and kept saying that therewere ghosts. They looked frightened, and some were crying utill they fainted.
“I’m really sorry that this kind ofthing happened today. Everyone had better send the children home to see thedoctor first.” Gao ZhiHao also knew that these people could not beretained here at this time, he was anxious to arrange for everyone to leave.
After a while, the originally lively partycooled down. Gao ZhiHao wiped the sweat on his forehead and walked over.
“I’m sorry, gentlemen.”
Li Shu hugged Xiao Jiang and with deadpannedeyes, told a lie. “My son is shocked too. We’re going back.”
Zhang Qiu watched the fully energized XiaoJiang and he couldn’t imagine Xiao Jiang being shocked.
“Go back!” Gao ZhiHao hesitated.“Actually, I invited you gentlemen to come here this time for something.If you are not in a hurry, take your child to the guest room to have a restfirst. The family doctor is also here. Let’s have him check first.”
For fear of Li Shu’s refusal, Gao ZhiHaoused the excuse of giving Xiao Jiang an examination. On the surface, Li Shushowed that he was really worried about Xiao Jiang as he nodded his head.
When they reached the lounge, Erge and ErSaowere sitting on the sofa, as if they had never left. Upon seeing them comingback, they asked, “What happened just now?”
“Nothing serious. Just as well that Mr.Zhang is here, let’s go together.” Gao ZhiHao smiled and tasked his son totake the remaining guests back. He led them to the second floor’s study.
Gao ZhiHao’s study was very large. There weremany books in it, but they were all brand-new and had a lot of antiques ondisplay.
They sat on the sofa. Gao ZhiHaocontemplated a bit before he said, “You are straightforward gentlemen, soI won’t beat around the bush. I knew Li Shu’s name is famous on the street(underworld); and Pei Qing is a veteran of special force; Mr. Zhang is FengShuiMaster…”
Gao ZhiHao first praised several people.When it came to Zhang Qiu’s turn, he paused before he said, “Zhang Family’syoungest childe’s knowledge is very profound.”
Zhang Qiu felt that the word 'profound' hadnothing to do with him. He had a blush on his face. God knew that he was luckyto even get into graduate school.
“I’m naturally an over-anxious and curiousperson; (that’s) businessman. Or else, how can I rise in this business withouta little impulse to stake it all?!” Gao ZhiHao smiled and said, “Ihappened to buy a map, a few days ago. My heart felt itchy and so I askedpeople to study it; only to satisfy my curiosity. If I really found anytreasure, I would first donate it to the country…”
Zhang Qiu had never met anyone who wants to roba tomb with such high-class objective. Gao Zhihao looked righteous. He wantedto say that it was admirable but unexpectedly Erge was faster than him, whosaid in all smiles, “It’s very admirable that Boss Gao has such amind.” However, he felt that Erge’s tone carried the meaning of squeezing people.
Whether Gao ZhiHao understood it or not, henodded and laughed. “I’m flattered. Let’s get back to business. This time,I’d like to ask you gentlemen, the famous people on the street to helpme.”
“Help?” Zhang YuShui raisedeyebrows.
Zhang Qiu thought to himself that ErSao hadasked him to raise the price. Gao ZhiHao was really cunning; with suchhigh-class objective and raising help, did he think of not spending money (topay)? Anyway, there was Erge, who was good at bargaining and raising prices.
“What am I saying? I’ve good intentionsfor this; naturally will not treat everyone unfairly.” Gao ZhiHao laughedvery boldly and said, “Seeing as we are acquaintances, I’ll give 20% morethan you usually got.”
Zhang YuShui reported a number and Zhang Qiugrinned in his heart. This was the price Qi ZhiRong gave Li Shu.
Gao ZhiHao nodded and accepted, “Notmuch, not much, everybody’s——”
“This is Li Shu’s last timepayment.” Zhang YuShui laughed very kindly.
Then Zhang Qiu saw Gao ZhiHao’s incredibleexpression. Perhaps Gao ZhiHao felt that he was too embarrassed, he quicklyresponded with a smile on his face, but obviously he was not at ease just now.After thinking about it, he said, “Okay, Brother Li Shu’s skill must be worththe money.”
After discussing the payment, Zhang YuShuialso helped Zhang Qiu to ask for head count payment. Although not much, it wasbetter than Ling Dang’s. Gao ZhiHao looked at Ling Dang’s delicate appearanceand thought he was Pei Qing’s younger brother. He simply had not regarded he(LD) was inside.
They made a profit at Gao ZhiHao’s andsecretly disposed the Tame Head Master. Gao ZhiHao lost both money and people. Goingback, everyone was in a good mood. Xiao Jiang also had enough to eat and sleptlazily in Zhang Qiu’s bosom.
Passing by the Lin House, Zhang Qiu felt agust of wind and heard Ling Dang whispered, “Xiao Ling has gone to the LinHouse.”
“Don’t mind about him. He needs tothoroughly give up.” Zhang YuShui said.
Zhang Qiu also thought that reincarnation wasbetter for Xiao Ling. Lin Jiahe was not a person who could take it upon himself.Both men had retreated to this way, not to mention Xiao Ling was dead now.
The next morning, while Zhang Qiu was stillasleep, he heard someone knock on the door and went to open it. It was XiaoLing.
“Zhang Qiu, let me say goodbye to you.I’m leaving.” Xiao Ling said.
Barely woke up Zhang Qiu couldn’t respond. Onlyafter pausing a while did he know what Xiao Ling meant: he was going to enterreincarnation. He looked at Xiao Ling and Xiao Ling smiled at him, in that kindof reassuring way. Zhang Qiu was speechless for a moment. Finally, he pattedXiao Ling on the shoulder and said, “If there is fate, let’s meet again.”
He did not know what Xiao Ling saw in Lin’shouse last night to have made him taking this decision today.
“Young Master had a good time. Miss Suis very gentle and beautiful. They seem to match each other very well.” Unlike him; a man and a ghost, who has nouse to stay in the world anymore. Xiao Ling whispered.
It turned out that Young Lady Su was atLin’s house last night. What she did with Lin Jiahe was seen by Xiao Ling.
Zhang Qiu sighed silently. Erge knew XiaoLing was going to be reincarnated and purposely purchased gold mock ingot in allkinds of paper currency, joss sticks and candles.
“Money will make the Devil turnmillstones. Once descend, it can help as a bribe for Xiao Ling to get into agood fetus.”
Zhang Qiu had gained knowledges andexperiences. Xiao Jiang stood beside him with a look as if he benefits fromadvive. [Xiao Jiang: I got it]
Everyone stood in the dark living room; allthe curtains were pulled down. Zhang YuShui had drawn the array and Xiao Lingstood in it. There was a basin in the middle of the array, where gold mockingots and ghost money were burned, engulfed in blue flames. But there was nosmoke. Zhang Qiu heard Erge say that this was exactly the bribe for the personin the Underworld (Hell).
Xiao Ling slowly disappeared and said thankyou before leaving.
After seeing Xiao Ling off, everyone wassomewhat sighing (sad). Only when they were having meal did that they saw thelocal news: the Lin Household and Su Household joined in win-win cooperationand the marriage would take place in three days. No wonder Xiao Ling was in ahurry to leave.
“I knew you guys wouldn’t enjoy yourmeals without me.”
There was a loud voice behind him. Zhang Qiudidn’t need to look back to see that it was Qixi the drama queen. The otherparty sat on the vacant seat and swept a glance around them. “It’s a fullhouse today. Even the hard to come by Pei Qing and Ling Dang are also here. Right,where is Xiao Ling?”
“He’s gone to be reincarnated.”Zhang Qiu said.
Qi Xi was stunned. Then he saw the headlineof the newspaper at hand and laughed. “Feeling is not a thing. It hurtspeople badly. It’s best to go.”
Zhang Qiu looked at Qi Xi, who didn’t knowif he was talking about Xiao Ling or talking about himself. After having saidthat, he ordered three serving of steamed dumplings and a bowl of porridgehappily as if it did not concern him. He ate with gusto, just like a pig.
Really should let Qixi’s fans to see this.
After the meal, Qi Xi heard about the JadeBi’s matter and said seriously, “Count me in.”
Zhang Qiu did not oppose to it, havingrecalled that the death of the elder Xiezhi was related to the Jade Bi. Li Shulooked at Qi Xi. The recently seriously Qi Xi turned all smiles and guaranteed,“You can rest assured that I’ll be absolutely far from your family’s XiaoQiuqiu.”
The matter was settled; only had to wait forthe news from Gao ZhiHao. The Jade Bi in the old fox’s hand had never been shownto them at all. He only said that when it was time, he led the way. Right now,they hadn’t received any news in two days.
Until noon on the third day, Zhang Qiuarranged a date Li Shu with him taking the initiative. For this reason, hestuffed Xiao Jiang at ErSao’s place, pretending not to notice Erge’s black facethat expressed he wants to pummel him.
Zhang Qiu searched a lot of guides on theInternet the night before yesterday. Today, he was nicely tidied up and hadgotten a lot turning heads along the way. He sat confidently opposite Li Shu.He swore to win Li Shu today.
“Xiao Shushu, this meat is very tender;it’s delicious.” Zhang Qiu pointed to the steak on the plate and justshort of saying: my fresh little meat is also tender and delicious, hurry eatit.
Li Shu’s expression was indifferent as he oh-ed.His action of cutting steak was light but sharp. When he put the piece into hismouth, his eyes were fixed on Zhang Qiu.
Who the fcuk is this seducing who?!
Zhang Qiu did not yield and swallowed hisdrool. His family’s Xiao Shushu really good at teasing now.
“It tastes good.” Li Shu liftedthe corner of his lips.
Zhang Qiu grinned, “Actually, I—”
“Is Lin Qing here with you guys?”
The voice from behind interrupted ZhangQiu’s 'I taste good too' remarks. Zhang Qiu was shocked when he looked back. LinJiahe, who was supposed to be at the wedding, stood a little distance in hisformal suits and his hair was in a mess, apparently in a hurry.
He approached them with two steps. His eyeswere filled with sadness and expectations. His voice was hoarse as he asked“Is Lin Qing dead?”
“How do you know?”
Lin Jiahe swayed down as if he was going tofaint. Zhang Qiu quickly supported him to sit on the chair. Lin Jiahe held hisforehead for a while without speaking. Zhang Qiu saw the silent tears on LinJiahe’s face.
Why didn’t you realize it (feeling) sooner?
But Zhang Qiu couldn’t say it.
“I shouldn’t have sent him to serve asa soldier, I shouldn’t have.” Lin Jiahe whispered, “He, why did hehide from me when he choose to leave and become a bodyguard? Why am I hisbeneficiary? Why would I want the money that was paid with his life? Why wouldI want those…”
Xiao Ling’s pension.
Zhang Qiu’s first thought was Qi ZhiRong. But,did the big boss Qi ZhiRong personally go to Chengdu because of Xiao Ling’spension?
Lin Jiahe was in a low mood and keptmuttering to himself. He had always shouldered the heavy responsibility of hisfamily. Marrying a wife, having children and inheriting the family businesswere the path the family had planned for him. But upon seeing his name on thelist of death compensation beneficiaries of Lin Qing, Lin Jiahe, who had been alwaysbeen indoctrinated, had all collapsed the concept of paralyzed ego.
He didn’t want to marry a wife, havechildren or inherit his family. He just wanted Lin Qing. He just wanted LinQing to be alive and stand in front of him.
Lin Jiahe thought of that night when he was betweenhalf asleep and half awake, he seemed to see Lin Qing. Lin Qing was smiling athim, calling him Young Master as before, telling him not to be afraid, and thathe would protect him.
“Lin Qing——” Lin Jiahe’s voicemuted as he was choked up. His whole person collapsed after saying Lin Qing’sname. He calmed down after a while and said, “Has he ever been here? I’veseen him…”
Perhaps the saddest thing in the world wasto regret.
Certainly regrets were often useless. ZhangQiu saw Lin Jiahe being like this and felt uncomfortable, but he still told thetruth: “He had perseverance in his heart, can’t let you go. You were notin good health and some people had done bad things in the Lin family recently, sohe asked my Erge to help you. Now that you are in good health and marrying awife with Lin family’s business gone smoothly, he persevered no more and wentto be reincarnated.”
“He’s such a fool. He’s thinking everythingfor me even after he dies. He’s such a fool.” Lin Jiahe covered his eyesand his hands were wet with tears.
Zhang Qiu couldn’t find words for a while.He actually thought that Lin Jiahe deserved it. But saying that at present wasnot piercieng the person’s heart? Xiao Ling said to let it go, but in thebottom of his heart, he still didn’t want to admit of hurting Lin Jiahe.
Consequently, the originaly nice provoked romanticdate with Xiao Shushu was dashed, and all the guides he made last night werewasted. Zhang Qiu was crying at the bottom of his heart.
After a while, Lin Jiahe stood up. His backbent, looking as if a person’s spirit would be taken away in a moment. His eyeswere red as he said in a low voice, “Thank you for helping him. Thankyou.”
Zhang Qiu looked at Lin Jiahe’s lonely andbleak back. He could only sigh and turn his head to Li Shu at the opposite ofhim. He thickened his face, acted cute with a hand propping his face, andimpatiently said, “Xiao Shushu, I feel sad, lonely and cold. Please pet,hug and kiss!”
The calm face of Li Shu, who was originallyin a bad mood after being disturbed, slowly raised the corner of his lips and crimsonflitted by in his eyes.
“Okay.” Li Shu grinned as he saw the silly smile on the other side’s face. This scene seemed to have happened before, and he could not help but be in a happy mood. “We can kiss.”
He heard the sound of fireworks exploding inhis chest.
How could his family’s Xiao Shushu be so provocative!!!
