Although they lived under the same roof, Song Haoran didn't have much contact with Gong Lizhen. He didn't know his taste nor did he know his size. He took a long time choosing and couldn't make up his mind. He only had to buy one set. A plain black T-s.h.i.+rt in a small size should do.

He rushed back to the room and saw Gong Lizhen still sitting on the bed on his knees with his big pair of eyes fixed at the door, apparently waiting for him. The moment he reappeared, the clear voice expressed in joyful surprise.

"Song Big Brother, you are back!" Gong Lizhen unconsciously loosened the grip on the towel as the panic in his heart disappeared when he saw Song Haoran.

Sitting quietly in the room, the loneliness that rushed into Gong Lizhen's heart made him stunned. The memory in his mind was very clear, he knows that this world was completely different from his original world. Even if human beings didn't practice martial arts, they have martial power and all kinds of talents come forth from all walks of life. Therefore, living in this world was many times more difficult than mixing with the people in Jianghu. There was no guidebook, no one was there to guide him and he didn't know how to take the first step to this new life.

Fortunately, Big Brother Song didn't leave him! Gong Lizhen sighed in relief and subconsciously made a special place for Song Haoran in his heart. Of course, his intuition and memory also told him that this man was trustworthy.

Seeing the relief and dependence in the eyes of the young man, Song Haoran's heart became very hot and his mouth unconsciously curved into a gentle smile. He took out the T-s.h.i.+rt from the paper bag and personally helped him put it on. Seeing his clumsily wearing underwear, Song Haoran turned his head away and tried to not stare. Don't stare at the long, slender white legs!

When the teenager finally put his underwear on, he wore it the wrong way. Song Haoran took a deep breath and hardened his face as he came up to help him put it on the right way. The youth had just come out of the effects of the drug, some confusion and distraction were inevitable. He spontaneously found a reason for the youth's unfamiliarity with dressing himself.

Although he had the memory of the original body's owner, he was still unaccustomed to certain routine aspects. Gong Lizhen secretly swore to learn how to properly wear clothes and felt relieved when Song Big Brother took the initiative to help. He was very smooth and gentle which made Gong Lizhen smile. Song Big Brother is really a good big brother!

With such good family and friends, the Xiao Shaozu felt happy like he never had before and therefore decided to live well as Gong Lizhen. With Gong Lizhen's memory, he had a lot of protection. Although the people here don't believe in dead souls like his original world but his memory tells him that if his ident.i.ty ever leaked, the people of this world would treat him horribly. The way they would deal with him would be to cut him up, open him and inspect him.

Thinking of this, the youth bites his lips and shudders.

"Cold? Put on my coat, let's go." Song Haoran finished putting on the teenager's pants when he noticed his movement. He picked up his suit jacket from the arm of the sofa and put it on him.

Song Haoran was tall and training in the military all year round not only made his muscles more p.r.o.nounced but also made it so that his height was 189 cm. He put his thin coat over Gong Lizhen who was 107 cm. The coat ended up falling to his calf, making Gong Lizhen look like a child who had just stolen an adult's clothes, especially with that innocent face. The kitten licks his lips and feels very happy, Song Haoran's kindness makes him look very pleasing in his eyes.

"Let's go! Let's go home!" Holding Gong Lizhen's small hand through the coat, Song Haoran's tone is filled with happiness, completely forgetting the past events.

"Yeah." The large coat was very warm and the unique scent of Song Haoran clung to it. It smelled very good. The last bit of confusion in Gong Lizhen's heart disappeared from the warmth felt through his whole body, his bent his eyebrows, made up his mind and stepped up to follow.

The corridors of the club were decorated in a luxurious style. The floor was decorated with transparent tempered gla.s.s inlaid with various colorful crystals. The floor lamps were installed on the sides and lit up as they walked past, making the crystals in the floor s.h.i.+ne brightly.

Gong Lizhen was careful when stepping on these s.h.i.+ny floor tiles while also trying to control his expression. He can't be too shocked by the palace that was more magnificent than the Underground Palace. After all, although he has never seen it before, the original Gong Lizhen was the only son of the highest leader of A province. This scene was nothing he should be surprised by.

While pa.s.sing through the corridor that s.h.i.+nes brightly, Gong Lizhen was too late to notice his surrounding when he was pulled into the elevator by Song Haoran. The small metal box automatically closed its doors and a lot of people were in the box. The s.p.a.ce was very cramped. Gong Lizhen felt a little uncomfortable. When the elevator started, he felt a pressure pus.h.i.+ng him down. There was also a feeling of falling into the abyss.

This was an elevator. It can automatically go up and down the stairs, there's no danger! Although he found the memory of this metal box, it was still his first time riding this metal box and Gong Lizhen still had some anxiety. Stepping toward big brother Song, his two hands clung Song brother's arms.

Song Haoran looked down at the young man, seeing his clear eyes filled with panic, he couldn't help but think: He's still a child, doing things on impulse. He finally understands how impulsive he truly was and knows uneasiness and fear.

Misunderstanding the reason why Gong Lizhen was uneasy, Song Haoran became more tolerant and relieved of his decision and actions today. This child was good, there's still a possibility of saving him from the wrong path.

After thinking this through, he reached out and patted Gong Lizhen's black and smooth hair and softly whispered: "Don't be afraid, today's events are over. I won't tell Gong Shu but you have to promise me never to do it again."

"Hn, I won't." Although he was not clear on what Song Big Brother meant, but Xiao Shaozu still behaved. Listen to Song brother's words, that's what he should do!

"Yes!" Gong Lizhen was only 16 years old. He just entered high school. He was just a big child. Song Haoran couldn't bear to blame him too much. Moreover, his eyes were sincere, with no impurity or hypocrisy. One glance was enough to rea.s.sure Song Haoran and he was happy.

There was such a cute and lovely brother, he feels much better. He glanced at the young boy beside him and smiled.

The two went out of the elevator and walked to the parking lot.

Gong Lizhen saw towering skysc.r.a.pers outside, colorful neon lights, vertical roads towards the East, roads and overpa.s.ses towards the North and South, shuttle bus, bustling traffic, everything entered his eyes for the first time and his inner heart was shocked.

He reigned in his expression and took a deep breath. Although the air entering his nose was horrible, he was still happy with this unpleasant smell. For the first time since he regained consciousness, he realized that he really was born again. Even if the air in this world was a thousand times worse than in his original world, even ten thousand times, he still feels happy because he was free.

Song Haoran found his car, opened the door, sat him in the co-pilot seat and buckled his seat belt. Gong Lizhen listlessly followed along, looking at brother Song the whole time.

Song Haoran didn't immediately start his car, but turned to face Gong Lizhen with a serious expression, obviously he had something to say. He considered his words before tentatively opening his mouth. "Lizhen, do you really like Big Brother Lin?"

Song Haoran doesn't discriminate against h.o.m.os.e.xuals. If Gong Lizhen was really in love with another man, he will definitely not care. But if he fell in love with Lin Wenbo, Gong Xiangyi's fiancé and his own friend…

How deep was his friend's feeling towards Gong Xiangyi? He was very clear about that and he would not allow others to interfere let alone another man. The boy's love was destined to be unrequired but, his love would not only be unrequired, it would eventually lead him to tragedy. For Gong Shu, for his best friend and for this younger brother, he has to take control of this situation if he doesn't want them to end up hating each other.

Before, he had the thought of opening his mouth to warn the boy and make him give up the thought of a relations.h.i.+p with Lin Wenbo, but that was when he didn't know the true face of this boy. But now, looking at the cute face of the youngster, his heart softened and he felt powerless. After thinking it over for awhile, he decided to guide him step by step. That was the reason behind the sudden question.

Big brother Lin? Gong Lizhen blinked and immediately began to search his memory for Lin Big Brother. After a while, he smiled and nodded, replying positively: "Yes. Like him!"

The youth's eyes flashed with joy and the affection for Lin Wenbo was clear and un.o.bstructed on his face. Face to face with such a simple and unpretentious boy and his innocent feelings, everything Song Haoran had to say was stuck in his throat.

He couldn't bear to see the sadness in the eyes of this young man and break the joy on his face. In his heart, a thousand times, Song Haoran sighed before he heaved out. "Why? Why do you like Lin Big Brother?"

Gong Lizhen turned his head and seriously pondered for a minute before explaining, "Because I was once bullied. It was Lin Big Brother who saved me and gave me medicine. Lin Big Brother is a good person so I like him."

After searching through the original Gong Lizhen's memory, the youth picked the most obvious thing that came to mind. Of course, the memory of Gong Lizhen could only be seen, he could not inherit the feelings of the original owner. Therefore, he thought that Gong Lizhen's feeling for Lin brother was like what he felt for his last life's Sister Xiao Momo. Both people were close to him and good to him, how could he take that for granted?

Song Haoran thought that he would hear a confession that was touching and tearful but what he didn't expect was the child saying such a simple sentence and looking at him with an innocent expression, one not trapped by deep, unforgettable love.

When he thinks about the words he used, Song Haoran faintly realizes that this child may not know what "love" was. Where was he in love with Lin Wenbo? It was clear that this child wors.h.i.+p and admires him as a hero!

Thinking of it in this way, the grip on Song Haoran's heart loosened and he gave out a low laugh. He leaned over and approached Gong Lizhen. He said: "You don't love Lin Big Brother, you only admire him! You are still young, you still can't distinguish between love and like. You will understand the difference when you get older. For now, your brother will marry your sister and if you interfere with Big Brother Lin's love, your father will be sad, your sister will be sad and the Gong family will fall apart. You don't want the Gong family to fall apart because of you?"

Gong Lizhen finally had a home, there was no way he would want that home to fall apart. Although he couldn't understand the difference between like and love, he understood what the sentence "together with Lin Big Brother" meant, so he nodded seriously. Lin Big Brother was going to marry his sister. He can't interfere with the intimacy of those two. This, he knows.

"Yes!" Song Haoran gratefully patted Gong Lizhen's head and praised him. Looking at the well-behaved child and today's events, Song Haoran was even more convinced that there was no deception in his words just now.

How could Lizhen have such a ridiculous idea? He whispered to Gong Lizhen. "Lizhen, how come you went to the club today and took those K pills?"

K pill was probably the name of the medicine that made him h.o.r.n.y. Gong Lizhen guessed and tried to think back to the beginning of the events and how he ended up in that situation. Gong Lizhen said slowly: "Hn, Fang Fang took me there. He said that he would give me some K pills to try…that it would make me feel good."

Even if he were desperately trying to remember, this young master still could not use the word "high" so he had to find another word. That Fang Hao's expression when tricking him to eat the K pill was the exact same as Xiao Lin's expression when he tricked him to eat TanHuan medication. Xiao Lin always told him: "Eat it, you will good after eating this medicine."

Therefore, the "high" definitely meant comfortable. The youth was smart.

Sure enough, someone tricked him into it! Song Haoran's face blackened and he patted the child's hair. He yelled a warning: "That was not a good person. You should not play with him in the future. If he comes to you again, you will bring him to me. I'll personally talk to him!" The last sentence was said through gritted teeth.

Slowly returning his expression to normal, he continued with his speech from before and explained: "Originally Lin Wenbo was supposed to come and take care of you but he received a call from a while ago saying that your sister suddenly fainted at home and Lin Wenbo rushed back to check the situation and asked me to come over instead."

"Yes, I know that Fang Fang is not a good person! I won't hang out with him in the future." A person who forced him to take medicine just like Xiao Lin can never be a good person! Gong Lizhen nodded and agreed with Song Haoran's remark. Then he pulled on his sleeve and urged: "Since my sister is ill, let's go back and see how she's doing."

Song Haoran didn't expect the teenager to communicate with him so well and that he was a clever and sensible person. Song Haoran smiled and patted his head appreciatively before starting the car and driving towards Gong residence.
