A Real Man Isn't Afraid Of A Little Demon

After noon, the number of guests on the island suddenly increased. The small passenger ship kept going back and forth between the pier and the port of Haiyun City, sending waves of well-dressed guests ashore, and then sent them to the fort by battery cars.

Yu and Chu were sitting on a big rock near the pier. From this angle, they could see the people on the pier clearly, but they were not easily spotted by others.After Zhou Mu's introduction, Yu Chu knew that these guests were basically prominent local businessmen in Haiyun City, as well as many celebrities from other places in the business world.

Although the sun is not violent, there is no shade above the head, and it is still a bit hot after a long time in the sun.Zhou Mu handed the water bottle to Yu Chu and said, "Drink a glass of water, your face will turn red."

"Yu Shiqing has quite a lot of guests." Yu Chu said while drinking water in small sips.

Zhou Mu glanced at him and said, "He is an excellent local entrepreneur, a big taxpayer, and he has a good relationship with many people, which is normal."

After all the guests had disembarked and the ferry set sail to Haiyun City to pick up the next group of guests, Yu Chu's phone rang.

"Xiao Chu, the guests are here. Didn't you let you be in charge of receiving them? Where did they go?" Yu Shiqing's voice came from the phone.

Yu Chu thought he was just putting on a name, but he didn't expect that he would actually go to receive guests, so he said, "I'm sorry Dad, I'll come right away."

After hanging up the phone, the two got up from the rock and went back to Yujiabao.

The garden has been newly decorated, the band is playing in the small space on the left, the guests are chatting in groups of three or four, and the well-trained servants shuttle among the crowd with drinks.

As soon as Yu Chu stepped into the garden, he saw Yu Shiqing on the steps, talking to the two guests with a smile on his face.His eyes fell on him, he beckoned and motioned for him to go over.

After Yu Chu approached, Yu Shiqing introduced to the two guests: "Chen Dong, Zhang Dong, this is my youngest son Yu Chu, please take care of me in the future."

Yu Chu bowed obediently and said hello: "Hi Uncle Chen, Uncle Zhang."

"Well, well, Mr. Ling is really a good-looking talent." Zhang Dong and Chen Dong praised Yu Chu, and they chatted happily.

Guests kept coming to greet them, so Yu Shiqing introduced Yu Chu to them.

This time, Mrs. Yu was not here, and Yu Feng did not come out to entertain guests. The illegitimate child who was leaning beside Yu Shi was the one, but no one was stupid enough to ask.

Who doesn't have a little privacy in a wealthy merchant's family?They knew each other well, so they didn't mention Yu Feng and Mrs. Yu at all, and just praised Yu Chu with a smile.

Yu Shiqing stayed downstairs for a while, told Yu Chu to treat the guests well, and then went to the upstairs room with a few guests who seemed to be high-ranking guests.

However, the guests did not need Yu Chu to entertain them. Uncle Wu arranged everything very well, and took them to the guest room to rest if they wanted to be quiet. Those who liked the excitement stayed in the garden or the lobby, chatting with drinks and listening to music.

Yu Chu took a break, ready to go to the grove behind the building to breathe.Zhou Mu had already disappeared, and he didn't bother to look for him, so he walked to the woods behind the building and found this man sitting on a bench by the woods, facing the small lake, quietly smoking a cigarette.

"You are not by my side for 24 hours of personal protection, but you are hiding here alone, are you not afraid that someone will drug me again?" Yu Chu sat down beside him, unceremoniously pulled the cigarette from his mouth, twisted put out.

There are quite a lot of young people here today, and Yu Chu's seemingly sweet and soft appearance has attracted the attention of many people, not to mention the secretly moving in his heart, there are quite a few of them who came directly to strike up a conversation.One of them looked familiar, but Yu Chu remembered later that it was the second male lead in a TV series he was chasing.

However, the Li Wei he met when he first transmigrated last time was gone this time, probably because Yu Shiqing cleaned him up so badly that he didn't dare to go to the island again.

Zhou Mu put one hand on the back of the chair behind Yu Chu: "I believe that with your current ability, it would be good if you don't drug others."

"Hmph." Yu Chu sneered, but he still agreed with this sentence in his heart, and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"It's too noisy outside, come here to feed the fish."

The backyard of Yujiabao is huge. Apart from the grove and a small artificial lake, there are several small western-style buildings in the distance.

The small lake in front was sparkling, and there were indeed many ornamental fish in it. Zhou Mu also held half a piece of bread in his hand, throwing a piece into the lake from time to time.But Yu Chu absolutely didn't believe that this man had the leisure and elegance to feed the fish, so he turned his head and looked around.

On the left is the main building. The largest French window on the third floor was open, and one could see Yu Shiqing sitting on the sofa through a gap in the woods, chatting and laughing happily with the guests opposite.

Yu Chu immediately understood Zhou Mu's purpose of sitting here, and turned around to look at him sideways.

"By the way, I'll come and see your dad." Zhou Mu didn't change his face, and broke another piece of bread and threw it into the lake.

"Are you trying to catch him?" Yu Chu sat closer and lowered her voice: "Yu Shiqing is not a good person, and I don't think the person who came to the banquet today will be a good person either."

Zhou Mu stared at him and was silent for a moment: "Is Yu Shiqing your real father?"

"Biologically, he's definitely the father of my body, but not psychologically."

Yu Shiqing kept Yuanbeng's mother under house arrest for so many years, and even broke his fingers. Now he continues to put him under house arrest on the island, not sure if his life will be in danger one day.

Yu Chu was originally transmigrated, and after knowing what Yu Shiqing had done to the original body, it was even more impossible for him to be his father.

He thought about it seriously for a few seconds, then patted Zhou Mu's shoulder reassuringly, "Don't worry, I know you can't believe me, but I'm indeed with you and I won't turn against you."

"Your finger, is it related to Yu Shiqing?" Zhou Mu's eyes fell on his hand, "Every time Yu Shiqing is mentioned, you will have a subconscious movement, which is to touch your little finger."

Yu Chu didn't hide it, and moved two deformed little fingers: "Yes, he broke my fingers in order to ask me for the key. I was only ten years old at that time."

Although he had never experienced that kind of pain himself, when he mentioned it, his eyes were still a bit more hostile.

Zhou Mu's hand holding the bread stopped, and after a while, he unscrewed a small piece and threw it into the water, asking, "Do you remember the past?"

"No, that's all I can think of."

Zhou Mu didn't know if he had believed it, but he didn't continue to ask. The two of them looked at the clear lake together, and the atmosphere became quiet and soft.

Until a message sounded, Zhou Mu glanced at his phone, put the remaining half piece of bread into Yu Chu's hand, stood up and patted the crumbs on his trouser legs: "Since you are fine, help me here Stare for a while, there are not enough manpower today, Uncle Wu is asking me to go to the gate to be on duty."

"What are you staring at?" Yu Chu asked.

Zhou Mu said: "There are so many people coming to the island today, it's easy to fish in troubled waters. I suspect that Abang will come to the island and make a deal with your biological father."

"……what."

"So keep an eye on him."

Yu Chu hesitated for a moment: "But for the on-site transaction, can he leave it to Uncle Wu to handle it?

"If he and Abang conduct a drug deal, the amount will be huge, and he won't trust others to do so." Zhou Mu said firmly.

Seeing that Yu Chu was silent, he asked again, "Do you want to be free?"

Yu Chu said: "Think."

Zhou Mu patted him on the head: "Hey, if you want to be free, just keep an eye on it. If there is anything wrong, call me immediately."

After Zhou Mu left, Yu Chu lay on the bench, watching the evening sun through the gap between the trees.He just occasionally turned his head to look at the window on the third floor, and found that Yu Shiqing hadn't left the study room. After the guests had left, he leaned back in the large leather chair and closed his eyes to rest.

The sounds of music and laughter in the garden were endless, and the dazzling lights were turned on one after another. Yu Shiqing held this grand birthday party, but stayed alone in the empty study room. He didn't know what he was thinking at this moment. .

When the sky was completely dark, Yu Shiqing finally got up and left the study room. Knowing that the dinner party was about to start, Yu Chu also got up from the bench and headed towards the main building.

He hurried through the grove, and when he returned to the lobby of the main building, he saw that several large round tables had been set up in the hall, and the guests were all sitting around the tables, looking at the small square platform in front, where Yu Shiqing stood , is holding a microphone and making a short speech.

"Guests, friends, thank you very much for taking the time out of your busy schedules to come to Xingyuan Island and attend my birthday party. It is a great honor and happiness..."

The guests were all attentively listening to Yu Shiqing's speech, so Yu Chu stood at the door and looked around, and saw Uncle Wu gesturing to him in the shadow on the side of the square platform, signaling him to get on the stage quickly.

Yu Chu nodded, walked up the platform from the side passage, and stood behind Yu Shi leaning forward.He could see the whole hall clearly, his eyes flicked across the faces of the guests, but he didn't see Abang.

"...Finally, I sincerely hope that while I accept everyone's wishes, I can also bring you a good night. Thank you again. Thank you."

The banquet started, and the servants lined up pushed the bright dining carts into the aisle, and put on the table one after another of delicacies carefully prepared by the chef. The guests began to exchange glasses and laugh.

"Where did you go? Didn't you tell you to entertain guests?" Yu Shiqing asked Yu Chu who was following him in a low voice.

Yu Chu said timidly, "I don't know anyone, and I'm not used to such occasions, so I rested by the small lake in the backyard for a while."

He didn't really believe that he had been lying by the small lake all afternoon, and Yu Shiqing didn't even notice it.

Due to the current situation, Yu Shiqing didn't continue to reprimand, but said: "Go to toast the elders later, don't drink white wine, just pour some champagne for show."

"Ah."

Yu Shiqing sat on the main seat, and people kept coming to toast. This kind of occasion was very familiar to Yu Chu, and he was familiar with all the responses, but he still pretended not to be used to it, and said a little jerky Scene talk.

However, Yu Shiqing was satisfied with his reaction and didn't say anything more.

Yu Shiqing only touched his lips every time, and the glass of baijiu seemed to be missing a layer of wine.Seeing that the guests had already entered the state of their own accord and began to chat enthusiastically with each other, he got up and went upstairs to rest, and came down when the dance began.

Uncle Wu picked up the suit jacket he had draped over the back of the chair, and followed.

Seeing their backs disappearing at the corner of the stairs, Yu Chu put down the wine glass in his hand, avoided those young people who came to talk to him, quickly left the hall, and walked towards the small forest behind the main building again.

When he passed by the front garden, he looked towards the gate. Although there were several thugs on duty standing there, he still found Zhou Mu at the first sight.

Zhou Mu leaned against a wall to him, listening to what a thug beside him said.He lowered his head slightly, smoking a cigarette lazily, as if sensing Yu Chu's gaze, he also raised his eyes to look this way.

The moment their eyes met, he narrowed his eyes and blew a smoke ring at Yu Chu, then turned his head away as if nothing had happened.

Damn it, you are so handsome.

Yu Chu stopped looking at him and walked along the main building to the courtyard.The lights are also arranged here, and the small lake is reflected so that the water is shimmering and misty, which looks very beautiful.

He didn't dare to just pretend to rest and lie beside the woods like he did in the afternoon, but found a dark corner that was not illuminated by the light, squatted down in the grass, and stared at the three under the cover of the surrounding trees. Lou Yu Shiqing's study room.

The study room is brightly lit, but the curtains are drawn, and only two figures can be seen projected on it, with occasional movements of getting up, it looks like shadows.

Yu Chu stared at it patiently. Unknowingly, about ten minutes passed, and in about half an hour, the dance was about to start, and Yu Shiqing would go to the hall again.

He wondered if Zhou Mu was thinking wrong, Yu Shiqing would never choose to trade with Abang today.

Although it has entered October, there are still mosquitoes on the island, especially in the grass, and the buzzing in my ears has never stopped.Fortunately, he was wearing long-sleeved trousers today, so he would not be bitten by mosquitoes, but if he didn't pay attention, the ear pinna exposed from his hair was still stared at, and it was red and itchy.

He scratched the bag on his ear with his fingers, and after scratching a few times, he felt unsatisfactory, then used his nails to pinch it, and made a cross on it.He waited until the heart-wrenching itch passed before continuing to look at Yu Shiqing's study.

The lights in the room were still on, indicating that the owner of the room hadn't left, but Yu Chu immediately noticed something was wrong.

The figure on the curtain was gone.
