Conquering That Black Lotus 34

Chapter 34

Upstairs, a fierce battle raged; downstairs, the driver waited.

Waiting for the employer was a common occurrence for a chauffeur, but working for this family meant absolutely no smoking in the car, not even outside.

The car had to be kept impeccably clean, with a faint fragrance of perfume.

To pass the time, the driver opened the car’s tablet, adjusted the volume, and started watching a popular TV series.

His phone suddenly vibrated. The driver quickly muted the tablet and answered the call. It was from the bodyguard waiting downstairs.

The young bodyguard was getting impatient from playing on his phone, and he couldn’t fully focus on it either, worried that someone might rush down and he would miss them.

“Uncle Wang, we’ve been waiting for over an hour, how much longer?”

The driver who came with Gu Tang this time was still Uncle Wang, but the bodyguards were new recruits from the past five years. Bodyguards were different from drivers.

Drivers only needed good driving skills and experience; physical strength wasn’t as crucial. Bodyguards needed to be around thirty years old, young, strong, and capable.

The young bodyguard asked on the phone: “It’s so late, the boss hasn’t come down yet, should I go up?”

Uncle Wang opened the tablet again: “Go up for what? It’s only been this long, just wait patiently.”

After almost another hour, Jiang Huaisheng sent a text message directly to Uncle Wang’s phone: “You can go back now, come back tomorrow morning…”

Uncle Wang had a feeling this would happen. He informed the bodyguard downstairs: “Alright, let’s go back, we’re off duty today, come back tomorrow morning.”

As the bodyguard returned to the underground garage and waited for the driver, he couldn’t help but ask curiously: “Uncle Wang, the boss looked so angry, who was he looking for? Could it be he was catching someone cheating?”

The driver said irritably: “Would he go up alone to catch someone cheating? Don’t pry into the employer’s private affairs.”

Jiang Huaisheng, after sending the message, only got a short break. He chose to text instead of call because his voice was hoarse from shouting.

He didn’t have any unusual hobbies, and even though the driver had been with him for many years, he didn’t want others imagining what he had just been doing based on his voice.

“Drink some water, you’re sweating a lot.”

Gu Tang took a bottle of electrolyte water at room temperature from the shelf, thoughtfully opened it, and handed it over: “Drink this, I don’t have the brand you usually drink, make do with this.”

For him, there was no difference between a 50-yuan bottle of mineral water and a 2-yuan bottle. Similarly, he wouldn’t buy the most expensive electrolyte water either.

Jiang Huaisheng looked at him deeply, didn’t say anything, and tilted his head back, gulping down almost the entire bottle.

His hair was completely soaked with sweat, beads of perspiration covering every muscle, his whole body sticky, his throat dry, sore, and painful.

The prolonged strenuous activity was too much. In five years, Jiang Huaisheng had never done such intense exercise. Since Gu Tang was willing to serve, he wouldn’t make things difficult for himself at this time.

“Alright, go take a shower after you finish drinking.”

Their reunion after a long separation was naturally very passionate. The sofa, the bathroom, the desk, the mirror… the house was a mess.

Gu Tang sighed, first picking up the clutter on the floor and sending out the robot vacuum cleaner to diligently do its work.

He carried the young master, who had turned into a soft noodle, into the bathroom and carefully cleaned him with warm water.

Seeing traces of blood in the clear water, Gu Tang put on a finger cot to examine him.

He held down the fidgeting young master with one hand: “Don’t be shy, it’s not like I haven’t seen it before.”

He had touched him everywhere, they had already done it, what was there to be ashamed of?

Jiang Huaisheng looked at him with slightly reddened eyes, or rather, glared at him: “It’s all your fault!”

After drinking a bottle of water, his voice wasn’t as hoarse anymore, at least he could speak normally.

“Okay, okay, okay, it’s all my fault.”

He had indeed gone a bit too far, there was a slight tear and some bleeding. He needed to apply medicine and observe for a fever.

Gu Tang’s movements became gentler as he cleaned him. Perhaps it was because he was enjoying this gentleness that Jiang Huaisheng didn’t resist.

He told himself that resistance was futile anyway, it was better to lie down and enjoy it, there was no need to make things difficult for himself.

Gu Tang washed Jiang Huaisheng thoroughly, like bathing a large dog, even washing his sweat-drenched hair in the bathtub.

His strength was just right. While massaging his scalp, Jiang Huaisheng was so tired that he fell asleep in the bathtub.

Gu Tang sighed, first lifting him out, drying his body, wrapping him in a bathrobe, and then putting a hair-drying cap on Jiang Huaisheng.

These were all newly bought after returning to China. He hadn’t looked closely before, thinking they were plain colors, but now he realized there were two short rabbit ears on the cap.

On Young Master Jiang’s sullen face, it looked both cute and funny, and inexplicably a bit seductive.

Jiang Huaisheng didn’t open his eyes during this time, his breathing even, it was unclear if he was pretending to be asleep or truly asleep.

Gu Tang’s slender fingers moved through his hair, quickly drying and fluffing it.

Gu Tang’s arms were strong. He easily flipped Jiang Huaisheng over like a pancake, opened the first-aid kit he had brought, and took out what he needed.

As a psychiatrist, this first-aid kit was much more comprehensive than the one he had during his school years. He found the ointment, applied the transparent gel to a finger cot, and gently inserted it.

Jiang Huaisheng’s eyes snapped open, like a wary kitten: “What are you doing?”

Gu Tang patted his instantly tense muscles: “Relax, I’m applying medicine.”

“Oh.”

Jiang Huaisheng turned his face down, hiding his embarrassed expression.

He hadn’t been asleep, just enjoying the gentleness, so he pretended to be asleep.

But his body was tired, and the familiar scent filled his nose, making him drowsy.

After the medicine was applied, he was placed on Gu Tang’s bed.

Then the heartless guy left, the sounds indicating he was cleaning the living room.

This was unfair. Although he was much healthier than before, and the doctor said the surgery was very successful, without any aftereffects, no matter what, he couldn’t compare to Gu Tang’s natural physique.

They had been intimate together, but that guy’s stamina was like a monster’s. Didn’t he get tired after doing so much?

Damn… so inconsiderate, not even staying to sleep with him.

Jiang Huaisheng hummed, deliberately sprawling out, occupying the entire bed. If he wouldn’t sleep with him, then he wouldn’t let him have the bed!

By the time Gu Tang finished cleaning, it was already 10:00 p.m. He washed his hands and entered the room. Jiang Huaisheng was already asleep.

The young master was hugging his quilt, his legs clasping his pillow, curled up in a ball.

From a psychological perspective, this fetal position indicated a lack of security.

Gu Tang sighed and moved Jiang Huaisheng over a bit.

He didn’t take away Jiang Huaisheng’s pillow but opened the electric sofa bed.

Jiang Huaisheng woke up in the middle of the night. Seeing no one beside him, his heart sank, thinking he was dreaming.

But as soon as he moved his legs, his body felt like it was falling apart, with lingering pain.

He turned on the light, saw the unfamiliar surroundings, and realized he wasn’t dreaming, Gu Tang had really returned.

At 3:00 a.m., he stood in Gu Tang’s living room with a cold face, poking the long-legged young man sleeping on the sofa: “Gu Tang, why are you sleeping on the sofa? Do you dislike me?”

Gu Tang, woken up, could only sigh: “Then let’s go sleep in the room.”

He was a heavy sleeper. After all, he was tired after exercising. He fell asleep within five minutes.

Around 5:00 a.m., Jiang Huaisheng woke up and went out.

Gu Tang didn’t think much of it, assuming he was going to the bathroom. He opened his eyes for a moment, then continued to sleep.

He woke up again at 7:00 a.m. and found something on his wrists, a pair of rose gold handcuffs, and also ankle cuffs.

Jiang Huaisheng had gone out last night to retrieve the special tools he had someone deliver.

Someone was sitting on his waist, smugly patting Gu Tang’s face.

During these five years, he had countless times fantasized about tying this bastard up, and now his wish had finally come true.

Gu Tang was both amused and exasperated: “Young Master, this is unlawful imprisonment.”

Jiang Huaisheng said: “This is your home, who said it’s unlawful imprisonment? You clearly wanted to play a game with me, you tied yourself up voluntarily.”

The handcuffs were rose gold, and the anklet had bells.

Gu Tang didn’t seem panicked at all, still calmly asking: “What if I need to use the bathroom?”

“Then use a mineral water bottle.”

Gu Tang said: “The opening is too small.”

Then he received a light punch from Jiang Huaisheng: “Pervert.”

He was just stating a fact, but the young master was clearly not rational, so Gu Tang wisely chose to shut up.

Jiang Huaisheng unlocked Gu Tang’s ankle cuffs with the key: “Go ahead, there’s a bathroom in the bedroom.”

He had anticipated this situation. After all, Jiang Huaisheng was also very clean and didn’t want to be with a dirty and smelly Gu Tang.

Gu Tang then realized that besides the ankle cuffs that bound his two feet together, there was also a chain around his ankle, attached to the bedpost. The chain was about three meters long, just enough for him to move from the bed to the bathroom.

And when he moved, there was a jingling sound, many small bells attached to the anklet.

He was somewhat amused and exasperated, but he at least washed up and relieved himself.

After this brief respite, Gu Tang was ordered back to bed. The young master, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, had changed into a new set of clothes, the uniform provided to teachers during their high school years.

The teachers had worn this for their graduation photos.

“Teacher” Jiang picked up a seemingly fluffy whip with hidden barbs: “I’ll ask, and you’ll answer. Only students who answer correctly get breakfast.”
