Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Bai Wu is my lover!”
A colorful array of confetti exploded in the room. Some of them looked at Xu Lan and Bai Wu gleefully as they finally came to fruition. There were also some who stared at them with big round eyes in astonishment. Bai Wu looked at Xu Lan with his reddened eyes, his hand that was held by Xu Lan was also trembling. The tear mole near the corner of his eye turned red, similar to his crimson red cheeks.
“… Xu Lan…” Bai Wu whimpered.
He had never expected Xu Lan to reintroduce him in this manner to everyone. Although he never shunned from it, this was completely a different notion from Xu Lan admitting it verbally. Bai Wu gradually lowered his head, his long lashes shadowed his reddened eyes. Inside them were filled with roaring waves, overwhelming him with forces strong enough to topple mountains and overturn seas.
Xu Lan raised his glass and drained it in one gulp. Although he felt a little awkward, he continued to finish his speech.
“I am not here to get your approval, I just wanted to inform you guys. Another thing, Bai Wu is going to work as a model, the manager has no intention to let the public know about our relationship as it is still a taboo. So, I hope you guys will keep it to yourselves.”
“Xu… Sergeant Xu! This…” Wang Hao was the most surprised one among the others. Xu Lan was his partner who went through thick and thin with him and was definitely a straight guy. He wanted to ask something, but before he could gather and phrase his words, Xiao Zhang gave him a pinch. He turned toward Xiao Zhang with a puzzled expression on his face.
“So, that’s all. Let’s continue eating. I gathered all of you here today specifically for this matter.” Xu Lan patted Bai Wu’s shoulders and sat down. Bai Wu kept his head low, his expression could not be seen clearly. Xu Lan then noticed that his face was drenched by tears gushing from his eyes after he sat down.
“Okay, don’t cry. Sit down and eat, I have something to give you after we head home.” A pair of jet-black eyes gazed at Bai Wu smilingly. Bai Wu felt that as if there was some kind of magical power that kept luring him towards it, like it longed to possess more of his gaze.
“Xu Lan, what shall I do? I’m so thrilled that my heart is going to explode with happiness,” Bai Wu muttered with tears flowing down.
“Pfft, just eat.” Xu Lan quirked up the corners of his mouth and laughed, before greeting each of them to eat. All of them were chatting away cheerfully around the table, it was such a harmonious sight.
Wang Meng was shocked when Xu Lan told him about this. Although Xu Lan was not a trivial person, he was considered as a man of principle, not too rigid but rather traditional. If he could go so far to do this for Bai Wu, Bai Wu must be the one for him.
“So, Bai Wu is your wife then…” A voice with hidden anger traveled from the entrance. It was Liang Yu. The door of the private room was pushed open, behind Liang Yu was Qin Lao, followed by a black cat that strode arrogantly as it entered.
“Uhm.” Xu Lan stared at Liang Yu cautiously and made a throaty sound.
Qin Lao tottered his way in with the support of his walking stick. Wang Hao that was sitting beside the door passed his stool over to the older man.
“What, you can’t treat this old man a meal?” Qin Lao pounded his walking stick and asked angrily with a raspy voice that old people possess when he saw Xu Lan was on guard.
“Humph, that’s not it. It’s obvious that you intend to take him away, but I can’t let him go. It’s only natural that you’re not welcome.” Xu Lan removed his stool and brought Bai Wu over to Qin Lao and poured him a drink. His words made Bai Wu blush immediately, just after he regained composure. Xu Lan always had the ability to make him blush with his unintentional words.
“Humph, I had a chat with my old colleagues recently. They observed that there’s some abnormal activity in the dimension. I’m sure that you guys have something to do with it?” Qin Lao asked while he sized Bai Wu up.
