Chapter 64 Need to Adapt
Li Ze's eyes suddenly fell on Gu Cheng.
He took the initiative and said, "Young Master Huo, won't you introduce me to a new friend?"
Huo Yufei turned his head to look at Gu Cheng, the corner of his mouth curved, revealing a dimple.
He gestured to Li Ze, who was standing beside him in a gentle manner: "A good friend of mine."
Li Ze stretched out his hand and introduced himself: "Just call me Yuzhi."
Huo Yufei gently embraced Gu Cheng's shoulders, and said to Li Ze: "Gu Cheng...my classmate from P University is also my good friend."
When he said the word "friend", not only Gu Cheng glanced at him lightly, but even Li Ze deliberately glanced more.
He tentatively said: "Since we are all 'good friends', we should get to know each other even more."
Huo Yufei smiled and said nothing.Li Ze stopped this topic at the right time.
Turned to start talking about other.
They first casually chatted about the artificial rock climbing base they had been to together, and then they turned to Li Ze's trip to Africa this time.
Li Ze just came back from Africa not long ago.Half a month ago, Li Ze cooperated with the local Chinese in Africa and organized a study group.
Lin Qianyue's ancestral home is in the Shantou area of G City. In the early years, she started exporting ready-made garments and became bigger and bigger in the textile industry.In the 50s, it began dumping cheap shirts to East Africa, and later gathered capital to enter real estate on Hong Kong Island.Lin has a special liking for the clothing industry. While accelerating investment in the real estate industry, he acquired a well-known listed clothing company at the time, and at the same time continued to strengthen cooperation with Africa.Because of his timely delivery and good quality of garments, he has a good reputation in Africa and is called the "King of Africa".
The local Chinese that Li Ze cooperated with this time is Lin Qianyue's only son, Lin Xi.
Huo Yufei asked him, "How is Lin Xi?"
Li Ze said euphemistically: "The family is big and the business is big, young and promising."
Lin Qianyue had a son like Lin Xi only after half a century. Of course, he was afraid of losing it in the palm of his hand, and fearing it would melt in his mouth.Compared with the title of "King of Textiles" on Hong Kong Island, Lin Qianyue's title of "King of Africa" is what people really can't take lightly.Lin Qianyue has extensive contacts and financial resources in East Africa, and has a very smooth relationship with the local government and other forces. If Li Ze wants to do business in Africa, he must be escorted by the "King of Africa".
Therefore, no matter how "young and promising" Lin Xi is, he has to endure it.
This is not because their Li family has nothing to do with Africa, so Li Ze has to rely on foreign aid.
But Li Ze is now in the "investigation period" and can hardly use any family resources.
Before Song Yulai complained that Ms. Song was strict with him, Huo Yufei asked her if she wanted to go to Africa with Li Ze.Of course Song Yulai refused, one is that she has no interest in Africa, and the other is that their family has a lot of things to do during the Chinese New Year, even if they are juniors, it is impossible to go out to play at this time.
The Li family is in a similar situation.
But I heard that for this project, Li Ze stayed in Africa for half a month, and even flew back to Lion City only on New Year's Eve.When it comes to paying attention to the ancient etiquette of the New Year's Eve, the Li family will only go too far. The reason why Li Ze hurried back and left on New Year's Eve is definitely not that simple.
The Li family's internal strife is quite serious, and the family itself is even happy to see these successes.Li's children will get a lot of money at the beginning of their adulthood. You can choose to squander it for pleasure, and after three years, you will have no chance with the huge family property, or you can use it to give it a go. increase wealth for the family.
Li Ze obviously chose the latter.
This is actually a process of averaging and then concentrating resources. Compared with this, Huo Yufei's family is much more free. While respecting individual wishes, there are special funds and dividends to ensure that the children of the family have no worries about food and clothing.The management of family property relies more on professional investment teams and stockbrokers.Huo Zhangzuo once joked with the Huo Qidong brothers, saying that their family has always implemented "communism", even if they are capitalists, they are also red capitalists.
Huo Yufei obviously thought of something, thought for a while, and asked, "So, this time you want to eat them all?"
Li Ze sat down on a unicorn, and the cup was hanging in his hand. His appearance was a bit different from when he was in City B not long ago.
Matching it, he was not as restrained and prudent as he used to be when speaking, and he was much more casual: "It's a bit difficult to eat them all, and I'm still a little bit worse now." He stretched out his hand and compared a number.
Huo Yufei was a little surprised, pretending to exclaim: "Young Master Li is so courageous."
Li Ze seemed to want to smile too, but for some reason, he loosened his finger, and the wine glass hanging from his finger fell on the soft lawn.He bent down to pick it up again, carefully placed it on the head of the small wooden horse, and said at the same time: "I have no other choice. You know, the game has reached a critical point, either allin or out. Choose one."
Huo Yufei touched the wine glass: "The greater the risk, the more bets, the higher the returns."
"The premise is that I can win."
"Of course you can win." Huo Yufei said, he put down his cup.
Suddenly remembered not long ago: on the lawn in the backyard of the old bungalow, countless strings of bright colored lights crossed the sky, blocking their view of the stars, Li Ze stretched out his hand to him, full of confidence.
Huo Yufei shook his head suddenly, put down the cup in his hand, and said meaningfully: "Mr. Li, why should you belittle yourself?"
He stretched out his hand: "I wonder if you still lack a partner?"
It was late that night when they returned to their home.
But before leaving, Huo Yufei went too far and took a rabbit from someone else's lawn.
Black, white and brown, with long ears, short tail and black eyes.
Li Ze laughed when he saw it: "Why are you catching rabbits?"
Huo Yufei smiled: "This one is very cute, give it to me?"
Then he turned around and stuffed the rabbit into Gu Cheng's arms.
Gu Cheng looked puzzled, and subconsciously hugged and touched twice: "What are you doing?"
"Don't do anything." Huo Yufei rubbed his chin, deliberately stood far away to look up and down, and then dragged Gu Cheng home contentedly.
When they came back, the housekeeper saw that they had a rabbit in their arms, and took it over, thinking that it would be an extra meal for tomorrow. Fortunately, Huo Yufei said something more, and kept it in the small garden.
Huo Yufei's ears, wrists, elbows, and the depths of his neck were still stained with gold powder that hadn't been removed. He didn't pay attention when he was taking a shower. When he came out, Gu Cheng found that some places were still shining with gold.Huo Yufei wiped it with his hands, but found that it couldn't be wiped off, and tried makeup remover, but it still didn't work, so he looked very annoyed, got angry for a while, and then looked at Gu Cheng pitifully.
Gu Cheng couldn't help laughing, but in the end he calmly found essential oils, vegetable oils, alcohol, etc. and poured them on sterile cotton balls, tried them one by one, and finally wiped off many shiny spots on his body.
Huo Yufei was itchy by him, and kept frowning to bear it. At this time, he tried to find a topic to divert his attention.
Tell Gu Cheng how troublesome it is to put on your own makeup and how many procedures there are.
While Gu Cheng was trying to wipe off the large animal in his arms, while listening casually, his mind unconsciously recalled the appearance of Huo Yufei on the stage tonight.
Holding a scepter in his hand, he wore a mask made of gorgeous gemstones and feathers. From the bridge of his nose to his chin to his neck, he was densely covered with gold powder from thick to light, and finally a piece of delicate white disappeared in the heavy Xingyue sacrifice. Deep in the robe.The strong legs bound with silk and metal protruded from the closed robe, and with every movement and every step, there was an urgent and crisp sound.
Scary and stressful.
During those ten minutes on stage, Huo Yufei seemed to be a different person.
It turned into something he had never seen before, and never imagined, mysterious, charming, and thrilling.
Interesting.
When he was thinking this way, his heart beat faster, and he even started to fantasize uncontrollably, what kind of outline should the slender and vigorous body have under the gorgeous sacrificial robe.
He has indeed seen it a long time ago, although the number of times is not too many, but he is deeply impressed.But in such in-depth and detailed fantasies, it was discovered that many specific details were missing.
For example, which muscle should have what kind of ups and downs, which bone should have what kind of outline.
I didn't remember clearly?
Gu Cheng gave himself a failing grade in his heart.
Immediately, I couldn't help but stop and look at the other party, and said tentatively: "If you wipe this off, you should rinse it again. I haven't showered yet. Let's go together?"
Huo Yufei shook his head frankly: "No, I'll go to the bathroom at the corner."
Gu Cheng confirmed to him: "Is it really not necessary?"
Huo Yufei looked directly at the other party, very sure: "It's really not necessary."
The opportunity to apply for a make-up exam was denied.
Gu Cheng's movements sped up a lot, and then hurried into the bathroom.
He had to review the course by himself first.
Huo Yufei watched Gu Cheng's back disappear from sight, the corners of his mouth curled up.
Then I actually turned around and went to the bathroom around the corner to take a shower.
The industry that Huo Yufei wants to develop requires a lot of capital investment in the early stage, and financing alone is far from enough.
He needs money, and so does Li Ze.
In order to obtain the maximum benefit in the shortest possible time, the risks and costs of the projects handled by Li Ze are extremely high.
But as he said, high risk, high investment, high return.
Is it really a good idea to take such unnecessary risks?Huo Yufei asked himself.
He didn't know either.
But some kind of intuition in his blood was urging him to hurry up and hurry up.And then he actually did it.
This is the adventurous gene in the blood of the Huo family.
Not Gu Chengyue's.
After suddenly realizing this, Huo Yufei smiled silently.
For some reason, this made him a little excited.
After lying quietly in the darkness for a long time, I felt that my brain was extremely clear.So he quietly got up and went to the study to network.
The hour and minute hands ticked forward alternately.
It wasn't until two hours later that he stood up, turned off the computer, and returned to the bedroom lightly.
Unexpectedly, when the door was opened, the room was lit.
Even though it's just a bedside lamp.
Gu Cheng sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed, and did not raise his head when he heard the sound of the door opening.
He seemed to be thinking about something, and his expression was a little dignified.
Huo Yufei closed the door gently, sat down, and asked softly, "Did I wake you up?"
Gu Cheng came back to his senses after being called out, and grabbed Huo Yufei's hand: "No."
"Then why did you wake up?"
Gu Cheng lowered his head and played with his hand: "I had a dream."
Huo Yufei asked: "What dream?"
Gu Cheng's expression was a little subtle.
"It's nothing."
Huo Yufei immediately opened his eyes suspiciously, pulled out the held fingers, pushed him down on the bed, and scratched Gu Cheng's waist threateningly: "Quickly, what did you dream about?"
Gu Cheng still refused to speak, and wanted to push Huo Yufei away.
Huo Yufei crushed him to death, but became even more curious: "What the hell is it?"
Gu Cheng blushed, but his expression was still calm: "You really won't get up."
Huo Yufei cheated: "Absolutely not."
Gu Cheng asked him again very seriously: "Then you are not allowed to say that I bullied you."
Huo Yufei felt something was wrong, hesitantly said: "Why do you... bully me? Wait, I didn't do anything wrong, right?"
"No, that's why I'm bullying you."
Gu Cheng blushed, and the sharpness of his eyebrows seemed to have melted a little, but what he said was very unreasonable.
At the same time, one hand suddenly got into Huo Yufei's bathrobe, and the other hand precisely grasped the sleeping place.
Then they played almost till dawn.
At first Huo Yufei tried to insist on refusing, but he couldn't resist the temptation later.After two times, panting and biting his neck, he fixed Gu Cheng on the bed, and tried to stick to the bottom line of "enough is enough", but Gu Cheng's willingness to make up for the exam was too strong, and in the end he kept pulling him until both of them were completely fine. Exhaustion is the only way to declare the battle over.
As a result, early the next morning, Huo Yufei was awakened by his kiss.
Inevitably another toss.
Especially in the end, he didn't resist the temptation, and was pressed on the bed by Gu Cheng, who helped him with his mouth.
It's really... a little too exciting.
Especially facing that very, very familiar face.
When he thought that the person who was doing this kind of thing for him was Gu Chengyue, Huo Yufei became... more excited.
In theory, shouldn't you lose interest immediately?
Huo Yufei said that he didn't quite understand what was going on in his own brain circuit.
And when he was caught by the other party immediately with such a little distraction, and when he returned to the thing that was swallowed in his mouth with fierce revenge, Huo Yufei didn't have the heart to think about it at all.
When he woke up afterwards, Huo Yufei seriously summarized how he was abducted into bed by the other party in a daze.
After thinking about it for a long time, I still couldn't find a reason to explain it.
Huo Yufei felt that he was quite rational at ordinary times.
But it seems... Gu Cheng is particularly attracted to him sexually.
Too big to resist.
Huo Yufei was a little confused.
Could it be... the technology is too good?
As soon as Gu Cheng came out of the bathroom drying his hair, he was dragged to the bed and tortured to extract a confession.
In the next few days, Huo Yufei finally had time to take Gu Cheng around.
In fact, he had wanted to do this a long time ago. He knew that the farthest place Gu Cheng had been to since he was a child was from the Jingan Welfare Institute to the P University dormitory, so he especially wanted to accompany him to see more of the world.
They traveled from Sydney Harbor to the Blue Mountains, watched the misty sunrise, and went to the famous Macquarie Street to wait for the sunset.
On the street, people come and go, and the Sydney Opera House is not far away.
Whether it's the streets, the buildings on both sides, the traffic flow, bicycles, small signs, or the pedestrians passing by, they all look completely different from those in China and City B, and it's also a look that Gu Cheng has never seen before.
Huo Yufei quietly looked at Gu Cheng's profile, and felt that the other party was really kind to him.
very good.
Willing to give him everything unconditionally when he has "nothing".
When he learned the facts and his own cognition turned upside down, he didn't blame Huo Yufei who almost concealed it on purpose.
In order to be by his side, she was willing to fly all the way to Sydney with him, but she was left alone at home and bored for many days.
Huo Yufei couldn't help resting his chin on the back of his hand.
He knew that Gu Cheng must not be as calm as he showed.
You see, when he sees a foreign parking sign that he has only seen on TV, his curious eyes light up, and he knows that Gu Cheng's ability to accept is definitely not as strong as he shows.
So how does he accept that I am not, and will never be, the person he once thought, or liked?
In Gu Cheng's eyes, the person he eagerly confessed to in the flying snow is definitely not the person I am now, right?
Huo Yufei turned his head, pressed one cheek on the back of his hand, looked up at Gu Cheng who was so excited that he couldn't keep his eyes open, and suddenly felt that this was obviously a child!
If it weren't for being so caught off guard, I realized the existence of the other party.
If he could have met Gu Cheng earlier when he was young, and took him by his side to take good care of him, wouldn't it be a completely different look now.
Even if he was given a little more time to prepare, he would be happy to pretend to be an ordinary person and stay by Gu Cheng's side without being restricted by the family.
While thinking this way, Gu Cheng suddenly turned his head and saw Huo Yufei lying on the railing like a child, looking at him in a daze from the side.
Immediately, he leaned over and kissed the other party, and after the kiss, he asked belatedly, "Is it okay?"
What Gu Cheng asked was whether it was okay to look like this on the street?
Huo Yufei has already adapted very well, and enjoyed hugging each other very much, so he said happily: "Of course it's okay."
He never cared whether he was on the street or not.
Gu Cheng was also very happy, touched the soft corner of the other party's mouth, and asked him: "What were you thinking just now?"
Huo Yufei's eyes were shining, and his expression was a little serious: "I was wondering if I would make you unhappy."
Gu Cheng looked at him seriously: "Why do you ask that?"
Huo Yufei smiled, and confirmed after a while: "Yes, right?"
"wrong."
Gu Cheng unexpectedly reached out and touched Huo Yufei's head: "Absolutely not."
Then Huo Yufei held the claws that he used to move his hands and feet, pulled them to his mouth, and touched them lightly: "But I made you feel stressed."
This time Gu Cheng admitted.
But he also explained: "I just need to adapt."
Huo Yufei couldn't help sighing: "You are too kind to me. It seems that you can accept me no matter what I am."
"Shouldn't it be?"
"No." Huo Yufei said seriously, "You can't always think about me."
Gu Cheng laughed immediately, and his expression showed a completely different maturity: "Why do you have an expression that I have suffered a huge loss? Actually, considering our conditions, I am taking advantage of it. ?At most, I have to worry a little more than ordinary people, worrying about what to do if your family insists on not agreeing? What to do if you are asked to get married? What to do if you are required to have a child? What if you realize one day that you like the opposite sex more? Do? I really don't think I can do anything..."
As he was talking, he found that Huo Yufei's expression was a little aggrieved and sad, and quickly remedied: "But these worries exist no matter what the situation is, and there is no way to avoid them. Look at me better, Being alone, there are no extra worries and scruples..."
As he said this, he found that Huo Yufei's eyes seemed to be a little red, and he couldn't care less about whether the other party was pretending to be pitiful or acting like a baby again, so he was so distressed that he couldn't speak.
Quickly asked him: "Did I say something wrong? If I said something wrong, I apologize to you."
Huo Yufei remained silent.
Gu Cheng suddenly became a little anxious.
For no reason, Huo Yufei thought of the three-color rabbit kept in the back garden circling in circles, desperately trying to catch its own tail.
"If you are unhappy at any time, you must tell me, okay?"
He stood up straight and confirmed to Gu Cheng.
Gu Cheng immediately agreed: "Of course, definitely, but I am very happy staying by your side."
He confirmed it again: "Very happy."
Huo Yufei felt a little sad again.
It was obvious that he was so sad.
Gu Cheng took the initiative to hug him, he didn't know why Huo Yufei was sad, but he always wanted to comfort him, right?
While hugging the other party, he silently guessed in his heart where he had poked the other party's sadness.
Maybe, Huo Yufei wasn't as happy as he saw?
Gu Cheng thought back seriously.
It is true that Huo Yufei was born with no worries about food and clothing, and his parents also cared for him, but did he really care for him?
Gu Cheng suddenly thought of the other party going to a foreign country alone at such a young age.
If Huo Qidong and his wife really cared and loved him, why did they agree at that time?And Huo Yufei suffered from autism when he was a child!
Gu Cheng couldn't help but imagine the vigorous grievances and grievances of the rich and powerful families in his mind. Huo Yufei, who was young, managed to survive in the cracks, and finally had to leave a foreign country.There are all kinds of distressed in my heart.
But he is still a little calm, knowing that these are all made up by his own brain.
Just remembered one more thing.
It was Huo Yufei who once told him the story, but never told the whole story.
"So what happened later?" Gu Cheng asked, "You haven't told me what happened after your father handed you over to your elder brother's care?"
