Chapter 17: The carp leaps over the Dragon Gate

Recap

Rong Yu smiled and said, “Mr. Gu, are you complimenting me on my beauty?”

…This naive little fish simply missed the point!

Gu Minghuai turned around and was about to continue explaining when he met a pair of eyes that seemed to understand everything.

Rong Yu lay on the bathtub and looked at him, his tone changing from innocent to seductive.

Like a siren luring people to head deeper into the depths of the sea.

“I don’t mind your interest in me, Mr. Gu.”

___

Gu Minghuai was at a loss for a moment, his brain seemed unable to analyze the sentence.

I don’t mind your interest in me.

What does it mean?

Gu Minghuai’s analysis failed, so he decided to pretend he didn’t hear anything and turned around to continue walking.

“Stop.”

Gu Minghuai paused but did not turn around.

“Mr. Gu, why are you leaving in such a hurry?” Rong Yu said, “Why don’t you give me a reply?”

Gu Minghuai said: “What reply do you want?”

Rong Yu walked out of the water, stepped barefoot on the clean tile floor of the bathroom, and wrapped his arms around his waist from behind in a very natural way.

This is a very common behavior – well, it is not very common, but the two of them have hugged each other closely countless times in the past few days. Although Rong Yu hugged the other one-sidedly, Gu Minghuai has long been used to it.

But his emotions were all over the place.

And he was surprised by this gesture.

Gu Minghuai’s expression was calm: “You made my clothes wet.”

“There’s extra clothes outside. Don’t change the subject.” Rong Yu put his chin on his shoulder and said in a very light voice, “Mr. Gu, why don’t you dare to look back at me? Or are you afraid of being found out?”

Gu Minghuai couldn’t help but ask: “What?”

Rong Yu chuckled lightly, moved the hand resting on Gu Minghuai’s abdomen down three inches, and successfully heard the man’s breathing halted, and then suddenly became a little heavier.

The culprit smiled innocently.

“Mr. Gu is obviously very interested in me.”

Gu Minghuai was speechless.

His brain was still processing, but his body had already given the most honest response.

Gu Minghuai lowered his eyelashes and said with a gloomy look, “Put your pants on first.”

Otherwise, he really wouldn’t dare to look back.

Rong Yu turned a deaf ear: “Don’t you feel uncomfortable like this?”

The young man spoke brightly: “Let me help you.”

As he said that, he really wanted to help him.

Gu Minghuai held his wrist and said in a deep voice, “That’s enough.”

Rong Yu raised his lips and raised his tone: “Are you sure?”

Gu Minghuai wasn’t sure. He felt uncomfortable being teased. If he stopped now, he might have to take ten cold showers.

Once you fall into the devil’s trap, it will be difficult to escape.

He closed his eyes in compromise and squeezed out two words from his throat: “…Continue.”

Gu Minghuai opened his eyes and looked at Rong Yu with a complicated expression.

Rong Yu washed his hands in front of the sink, turned around and saw a strange look directed at him, and playfully splashed the water from his hand onto Gu Minghuai’s face.

The water sprayed is cold, but it cannot cool down.

Gu Minghuai wiped the water droplets from his face: “Can you put on your pants now?”

Rong Yu sat down on the washstand and said, “My hands are sore and I don’t have the strength to wear it.”

The corner of Gu Minghuai’s mouth twitched, wondering why he was so delicate, but he still couldn’t say it after circling in his throat. He silently picked up his pants and put them on for Rong Yu.

When his pants reached his knees, he couldn’t lift them up. Gu Minghuai raised his eyelids and said, “Come and stand up.”

Rong Yu sat still and rolled his eyes: “Mr. Gu, courtesy is reciprocal, shouldn’t you also help me?”

Gu Minghuai pursed his lips.

As if suddenly remembering it, Rong Yu said regretfully: “I almost forgot, Mr. Gu loves to be clean, so he must be disgusted with it. Forget it, I will do this kind of dirty work myself——”

Gu Minghuai put his hands on his and said, “I don’t mind it.”

Rong Yu lowered his eyes, and his playful smile faded a little.

The man had obviously never taken care of anyone else – with his need for cleanliness, he probably hadn’t even taken care of himself. His movements were jerky, but his expression was serious. There was a thin circle of red on his face, reaching the roots of his ears.

Rong Yu thought, Mr. Gu might have to wash his hands for a long time.

They came out of the bathroom looking refreshed.

Rong Yu: It is indeed more comfortable to be served than to serve others.

He still had more to say: And it’s really big. Did you see that? Little Bracelet?

Blood Jade Bracelet: Thank you, I didn’t see it.

Rong Yu: How could you not see it? It’s so big.

Blood Jade Bracelet: Coded and mosaiced below the neck.

Rong Yu: I feel full of energy now.

The Blood Jade Bracelet was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked: Are you just doing it for the spiritual energy?

Rong Yu didn’t answer, and the sofa beside him sank.

Gu Minghuai sat next to him, his expression restored to calm: “Xiao Yu’er, I need to straighten out our current relationship.”

After what happened in the bathroom just now, the relationship between the two has undergone some subtle changes, and it is obviously impossible to treat it as nothing happened.

Even though it was just a matter of helping each other… the hot-blooded boys in the movies would vent their energy in the dormitory, but he had always stayed away from them, and he had never even watched a yellow film* his entire life. Gu Minghuai, who was born with severe mysophobia, felt that this matter was extremely dirty, and he was filled with cold asceticism from the inside out.

*(pornography)

Even in adolescence, he could live so calmly and coolly, but now, due to the accumulation of time, he has long been too cold. All the heat and recklessness comes out directed at Rong Yu.

The person who can make him overcome his mysophobia is not an ordinary person at all.

There is no point in deceiving oneself and others. He will face it and straighten out the relationship between them.

Gu Minghuai was talking with a very serious attitude.

Rong Yu also answered seriously: “Mr. Gu said before that kissing is something that only people who are in love can do. I checked online and found that there is a kind of relationship in human society called lovers, who can do many intimate things. The premise of their establishment is mutual love.

I am very happy to establish this relationship with Mr. Gu, and I feel that I fully meet the conditions.”

Gu Minghuai never expected to get such a straightforward answer.

He asked, “Do you really understand what that word means?”

“Isn’t it just that you like me.” Rong Yu raised his eyebrows, “And I like you.”

“…”

“Mr. Gu?” Rong Yu called him, “Do you agree to be my boyfriend?”

Gu Minghuai became awkward again.

“Mr. Gu really doesn’t like me, a worthless little yokai.” Rong Yu stood up from the sofa, “Okay, I’ll leave.”

Gu Minghuai pulled the person back into his arms and asked him to sit on his lap, his tone was helpless.

“……I promise.”

Rong Yu was instantly happy and kissed Gu Minghuai on the face.

Gu Minghuai’s first reaction was to wash his face.

The second reaction was not to move, otherwise his newly acquired boyfriend will fly again.

Gu Minghuai asked uncomfortably: “Did you look through the Internet for that kind of thing just now?” It’s impossible to be self-taught.

“That’s right.”

“…You are not allowed to look up those messy things online in the future.” What a way to pollute the innocent little fish!

“Okay.” Rong Yu said good-naturedly, “Only for my boyfriend.”

Gu Minghuai’s face turned slightly red.

Why is this little fish talking without any filters?

But……

The corners of his lips raised slightly.

It’s also weirdly cute.

Blood Jade Bracelet: Do you really like him?

Reason told the Blood Jade Bracelet that the Demon King would never be easily tempted, but whether his feelings for Gu Minghuai were real or fake, the Blood Jade Bracelet couldn’t tell clearly.

It is just an artifact and does not understand complex emotions. Moreover, the Big Demon King is extremely vigilant despite his superb acting skills. Even though he jokes with it in his mind every day, it never knows Rong Yu’s true feelings.

Rong Yu hides his feelings too deep.

Of course, the Blood Jade Bracelet didn’t want the Lord God to be toyed with by the Demon King. It had to test this big devil.

Rong Yu: Don’t you know?

Blood Jade Bracelet: I don’t know.

Rong Yu: Then you don’t need to know. Children don’t get involved in matters between adults. Be good.

Blood Jade Bracelet: I am not a child!

Rong Yu: Well, you are a Little Bracelet.

Blood Jade Bracelet: Yes. I’m a Little Bracelet

Blood Jade Bracelet: … No! I am the Red Gold Sun Bracelet!

Rong Yu tutted, the children who are slow tends to be much happier.

The change of relationship status into a couple didn’t change their cohabitation much, and life was still so ordinary. Gu Minghuai lives between home and work, and adheres to a strict schedule, which is rigid and boring.

Since he could be short of water and spiritual energy at any time, Rong Yu had to briefly revert to his mermaid form in the office quite a few times. Gu Minghuai has gained a lot of experience, so he simply keeps a few sets of clothes in the office for emergencies.

The employees didn’t think much about it. They just thought that young people just like to dress up and change their clothes frequently.

Only the assistant’s eyes were getting weirder and more intense. He always looked at Gu Minghuai but hesitated to speak, and he felt a little sorry for the little boy who was always being tormented.

He really wanted Mr. Gu to stop being too addicted to this kind of office play. It might be okay once or twice occasionally. But if you want to be intimate, why not go home and lock the door?

Gu Minghuai had no idea that his assistant’s mind was spinning. After he and Xiao Yu’er confirmed their relationship, they were still completely innocent. They only hugged and kissed each other at most, they didn’t even reach the same level of intimacy as that day.

Falling in love should always be done step by step and should not be rushed. Moreover… Rong Yu is too immature, and it takes a lot of energy to keep an eye on him. Gu Minghuai is more concerned about him like an old father.

Rong Yu really wanted to go out and have fun. He had been in this world for so long, and he almost always moved between home and work. The big devil’s life used to always be rich and colorful, so naturally he can’t bear to be so dull and boring, but there are too many uncertainties that could happen to him and it may appear at any time. Gu Minghuai refuses to take him out no matter what.

There’s no point in making a fuss.

Rong Yu doesn’t have a submissive temperament. It’s impossible to keep him at home especially since he has legs. In the past, no one dared to control the Great Demon King when he went to heaven or earth, so how could he listen to Gu Minghuai’s words?

He wanted to sneak out in the middle of the night, but was defeated by modern high technology. Rong Yu didn’t expect that he would sound the alarm as soon as he put his foot out the door, waking Gu Minghuai upstairs.

Gu Minghuai’s face was very dark when he came down, and he carried him back without saying a word.

Rong Yu resisted desperately: “You installed an alarm in your home! Are you serious?”

Gu Minghuai’s face didn’t change: “I’m guarding against you sneaking out.”

“Do you know this is called illegal imprisonment? You’re abusing me! Let go!”

Gu Minghuai carried the man upstairs and said, “It seems that I have spoiled you too much.”

“No matter how much you spoil me, you don’t give me personal freedom!” Rong Yu felt extremely aggrieved. He went crazy staying at home. When he was on the run in the past, at least the world was still big enough for him to roam around. Now he is simply serving his sentence at home and occasionally going to the company for fun.

“Other people’s boyfriends will take their partners out on dates to eat, go shopping and watch movies.” Rong Yu couldn’t help but say, “Look at you.”

Gu Minghuai threw him back on the bed: “Other people’s boyfriends will not suddenly turn into a fish.”

He had a headache. Xiao Yu’er really had no sense of crisis at all. He is always worried that Rong Yu’s true identity will be discovered, while Rong Yu only wants to go out and play.

It’s so worrying.

“I don’t want to see you.” Rong Yu didn’t care about all these, he picked up a pillow and threw it at him, “We will sleep in different rooms tonight!”

It was impossible for him to give up the most comfortable master bedroom.

Gu Minghuai didn’t lose his temper, he actually left.

Blood Jade Bracelet: If you don’t hold him tonight, your spiritual energy will only last until midnight.

Rong Yu immediately sat up: “Come back!”

Gu Minghuai turned back again with a calm expression: “What’s wrong?”

Rong Yu raised his chin: “Come here and kiss me.”

Tsk, ostentatious. Gu Minghuai felt funny, and the anger in his heart faded.

He’s even willing to act coquettish and beg for a kiss, just because he doesn’t want to let him go.

He knew Xiao Yuer couldn’t bear to part with him.

Gu Minghuai walked to the bedside, made mental preparations for a moment, leaned over and kissed Rong Yu, and looked down at him: “Now that you’ve calmed down, can you let me go to bed?”

Rong Yu got the spiritual energy value and put the quilt over his head: “You can get out of here, please help me put out the light.”

Gu Minghuai: “…”

This is definitely coming for revenge, right?
