I love you the most in the world [Entertainment circle]

Chapter 167.1 [Extra four]

Editor: Jodi

Lin An Lan teased deliberately, “Just because I don’t control the finances at home, it means what I say doesn’t count?”

“Of course not.” Cheng Yu looked at him, “I just want you to take charge of me.”

His eyes were pure, with a clear distinction between black and white, a faint glimmer in them. Since high school, he had hoped that Lin An Lan would be his friend, that he would guide him, share joys with him, and prevent him from falling into decadence.

He was too free yet craving for restraint. He didn’t want to be out playing with others late at night without someone to take him home. He had hoped Lin An Lan could bring him home and grow up with him.

But back then, it didn’t happen.

Now, he hoped it could.

Lin An Lan smiled gently, “Even if I don’t have your salary card, I’ll still take care of you.”

Then he continued, “You’re my boyfriend, aren’t you? If I don’t take care of you, who will?”

“If I’m your boyfriend, then who else but you should have my salary card?” Cheng Yu muttered, “I don’t want to keep it myself. I’ve been carrying it for so many years, and I’m tired of it.”

How could Lin An Lan not understand his thoughts? Tilting his head, he went along with it, “Are you really that tired of it? Then I’ll keep it for you temporarily. If you want it later, I’ll give it to you.”

“You can’t just do this temporarily.” Cheng Yu said back immediately, “Once you take it, you have to keep it for a lifetime. I don’t want it, so don’t give it back to me. If you do, I’ll run away. As long as I run far enough, you won’t be able to give it back to me.”

Lin An Lan: ???

Lin An Lan found himself quite surprised by Cheng Yu’s childish and cute side. It was really astonishing.

And endearing.

He couldn’t help but laugh, his shoulders shaking slightly.

Cheng Yu insisted firmly, “Anyway, that’s settled. You’re not allowed to give it back to me.”

At this moment, he didn’t seem like a delicate flower anymore but more like a proud little peacock. Smiling, Lin An Lan cupped his face and kissed him on the lips, “Alright, I won’t give it back to you. Alive, it’s my card, and dead, it will be buried with me.”

Cheng Yu nodded in satisfaction, “Mm.”

Lin An Lan wrapped his arms around him, feeling that he had become increasingly adorable lately, quite fitting of his nickname ‘Little Flower’.

“I’m going to shower.” Lin An Lan patted his little flower, “Wait for me to come back.”

Cheng Yu grinned, “Wait for you to come back for what~”

“Nothing, we’re at your grandfather and father’s house. What do want to do?” 

“Don’t worry, our house has great soundproofing.” Cheng Yu hooked his hand, “Besides, it’s the first day of the New Year, what’s more after just announcing our relationship, shouldn’t we do something lovers do?”

Lin An Lan clicked his tongue, “Little yellow flower.”

“Yellow tulips are an essential part of the tulip family.” Cheng Yu argued convincingly.

Lin An Lan chuckled, “Alright then, you wait. I’ll first hydrate myself, then come fertilize you.”

“Hurry back.” Cheng Yu released his hand.

Lin An Lan entered the bathroom. It seems he wouldn’t be getting an early night tonight.

Then Cheng Yu tossed and turned for half the night until his stem absorbed enough nutrients, and only then did he cuddle Lin An Lan, ready to sleep.

And nestled against him, Lin An Lan soon drifted off to sleep, however before he did, he made sure to say, “Happy New Year.”

“Happy New Year to you too.” Cheng Yu kissed his cheek.

And closing his eyes, Lin An Lan slipped into dreamland.

The next morning, Lin An Lan woke up close to 11 am, startled. “Did I oversleep?”

At this hour, it was almost time for breakfast after freshening up. It wasn’t appropriate for his first visit in Cheng Yu’s home.

“I’ll go freshen up.”

Lin An Lan said, preparing to throw off the covers, however Cheng Yu hugged him, coaxing with a smile, “It’s okay, there’s no rush.”

He helped Lin An Lan into his pajamas, saying softly as he did so, “We don’t eat until after twelve at our place, so it’s not time yet, don’t worry.”

“Your grandfather and dad didn’t come to call us?” Lin An Lan asked him.

“I’m an adult now, not a kid. What would they call me for?”

Cheng Yu reassured him, “Don’t worry, our home is very relaxed. You can wake up and sleep whenever you want. They won’t bother or interfere, and even if you skip lunch, they won’t say anything.”

Really? Lin An Lan blinked, “So free?”

Cheng Yu nodded, “Otherwise, with how rarely I come back throughout the year, I would have been scolded long ago.”

In essence, Cheng Xiao and Cheng Feng weren’t a particularly affectionate father-son duo. They loved their son, but loved themselves more. So, since they couldn’t manage to have every meal with their family or spend every day together, naturally they didn’t expect the same from their son¹Here- Cheng Xiao (father)> Cheng Feng (son)> Cheng Feng (father)> Cheng Yu (son).

Initially, when Yu Hanshuang was around, there was still some warmth in the house. However after she left, the two egotistical men didn’t know how to interact with their child, so they gave Cheng Yu freedom and wealth but forgot to provide him with the warmth of a family.

Cheng Yu had criticized and accepted it, so in the end, he treated them the same way they treated him.

That was the dynamic of their family relationship—somewhat distant but still the closest blood ties.

Lin An Lan felt reassured hearing this.

“But I still need to freshen up quickly. We agreed to have lunch together today. I don’t want your grandfather to have any issues with me.”

“You don’t need to worry about him. If he has issues with you, then you can have issues with him in return. Since you won’t live together in the future and would at most see each other once a year, you don’t need to force yourself to please him.”

“How can you say that? You should encourage mutual understanding and tolerance. That’s what you, as a grandson and boyfriend, should do.”

Cheng Yu raised an eyebrow, “I do believe you would understand and tolerate him, but would he?”

Cheng Yu doubted, didn’t trust, and even disdained, “He’s not worthy.”

Every time he thought about what Cheng Xiao did back then, he would be filled with anger. It was only because Lin An Lan had held him back, otherwise, Cheng Yu felt that their New Year would have ended in tears with bars involved.

He on one side of the bars and his grandfather on the other.

Looking at each other silently, and there wouldn’t even be the shedding of thousand lines of tears²There’s a saying in Chinese that goes: Looking at each other silently, and shedding thousand lines of tears..

He rubbed Lin An Lan’s head, “In short, just do what makes you comfortable. You don’t have to worry about other people. I didn’t bring you home to make you accommodate them.”

Lin An Lan nodded, “Okay.”

Then getting out of bed, he freshened up, changed clothes, then went downstairs with Cheng Yu.
