Gu Bai isn"t a fool nor a person with low EQ.
Seeing Nie Qingcang"s behavior, he realized that he will soon bend that person and became terrified at that moment. This isn"t a good thing.
It"s true that he wants to hug Nie Qingcang"s thighs, but he doesn"t want to go to Nie Qingcang"s bed. He came to do the task, not to be pressed down.
While Nie Qingcang haven"t react, he must quickly correct this mistake!
After thinking about it, Gu Bai began to gradually pull away from Nie Qingcang. He will still hug the thighs, but will need to pay attention to the distance.
However, Nie Qingcang’s favorable impression of him seems to be getting deeper and deeper.
For example, Nie Qingcang who"s always solemn and serious have smiled more and more recently. He spoke to him even more gently. No matter how busy the company is, even when battered by wind and rain, he will still send him to school.
When eating, Nie Qingcang seems to always like to look at his face. At every turn, he will kiss his forehead twice. It even got to the point where one day he proposed to sleep together with him*, all night long to enhance brotherly feelings!
*同衾共枕 share the same quilt and the same pillow
Gu Bai felt chills run down his spine, his chast.i.ty in danger.
He doesn"t believe it at all that he can use Lu Rongqing"s delicate body to overwhelm the tough guy with eight packs hidden under his suit.
In order to protect his own chrysanthemum, Gu Bai can only withstand Nie Qingcang’s dark face and declined with fearful eyes. At the same time, he quicken the pace to complete the task.....
Lu Rongqing is 17 years old this year. The high school he enrolled in is a famous private n.o.ble high school in B city.
The children in this school are all young master and miss from rich and wealthy families. Even if the grades are very important, they don"t need to work hard on their exams for the sake of their future, unlike ordinary high school students.
When studying here, besides learning, they"re mostly making friends and connections, to prepare for when they take over the family business. Therefore, the courses here aren"t urgent, it"s very relaxed and fun.
In today"s art cla.s.s, Nan Lichen took everyone to a special art studio. He used half of the lesson time to teach and the other half to paint freely.
Drawing this kind of thing, Gu Bai isn"t good at it.
Before he transmigrated, he grew up in a orphanage and didn"t went school. All the knowledge were things he sneaked in to teach himself in the orphanage"s library that only served as a decoration. After he left the orphanage, he learned through hard work*.
*摸爬滚打 to go through arduous training or hard work
Such a cultivated* thing like drawing, he didn"t learn it and also won"t take the initiative to learn it because eating and living itself was already a problem, where would he have the free time to learn these things?
*陶冶情操 cultivate one"s taste (temperament)
The original host is also not a very sentimental person, but Nan Lichen just had to teach ink painting today, such a difficult and profound thing.
So although Gu Bai tried very hard to hold the brush and paint the two crickets shown on the blackboard in order to look like a good boy. In the end, with simple lines, he only painted two...ducks.
It"s probably a duck? Gu Bai stared at his own work, feeling uncertain in his heart.
"Looks like you are more suited to learn oil painting..."
A gentle male voice sounded from the side of his ear, unknown when did Nan Linchen came to his side, he lowered his head close to his ears and gently laughed, "You must be an abstract genius."
"......"
Gu Bai paused for a bit, then he walked forward a little to pull apart the close distance and lowered his head, his hands reached out to block his artwork. The tip of his ears became pink, looking embarra.s.sed.
Seeing his youthful* reaction, Nan Lichen felt very satisfied in his heart and smiled lightly before reaching out to rub Gu Bai"s soft hair.
*青涩 young and inexperienced

While saying that, Nan Lichen grasped Gu Bai"s hand that"s holding the brush from behind and helped him add strokes to the drawing paper. The intimate but not too close atmosphere surrounded Gu Bai, very ambiguous.
Gu Bai didn"t speak or raise his head, only the pink color on the tip of his ears deepen. With his head lowered, his eyes flashed a amusing look.
During this time, Nan Lichen began to slowly approach him. This sort of vague ambiguity is a means of tease, very useful to those who"re naive and haven"t experienced many relations.h.i.+ps.
The Lu Rongqing in the story was fooled like this, but unfortunately, he isn"t the naive Lu Rongqing.
So after painting, Gu Bai smiled and looked at Nan Lichen with nervous antic.i.p.ation, asking "Teacher, can I take this painting home?"
“What do you want to take it home for? This is your school a.s.signment...” Nan Lichen looked at Gu Bai and smiled softly.
Gu Bai bowed his head, the face slightly red. When Nan Lichen thought he was shy and couldn"t speak, he lifted his head again and looked at him with a naive smile.
"After school I can stay back and finish painting another school a.s.signment. I, I like this painting very much, I want to bring it home, can I....."
"Alright then, no need to repaint it, I"ll let you go through the backdoor..." Nan Lichen nodded.
Gu Bai was first surprised, then he smiled happily and his clear eyes became a line.
"Thank, thank you teacher..."
Nan Lichen looked at him smiling happy, suddenly moved his body closer. The body"s scent shrouded Gu Bai in an instant, it"s faint and very special.
"Really a child, you"ve ink on your face..."
He stretched out his hand and touched Gu Bai"s face, the pair of slender eyes came closer, focusing on Gu Bai"s eyes, while his soft fingers wiped Gu Bai"s cheeks.
The temperature of the skin touch made Gu Bai paused for a moment, his face that was brushed by once became even more flushed. Shyly* looking like he wants to wipe his own face by himself, his fingers clutched Nan Lichen"s hand in a panic.
*羞赧 blushed because of shyness
"So-sorry..."
Gu Bai stared at Nan Lichen with wide eyes, reflecting his appearance, this kind of incredibly pure gaze startled Nan Lichen.
For only maybe one or two seconds, the two of them didn"t move.
By the time Nan Lichen reacted, Gu Bai already put his hand down and lowered his head, revealing a long slender neck, the snow white skin slightly red.
"Rongqing, has anyone said that you are very beautiful?" Nan Lichen suddenly said gently.
Gu Bai blushed: "Can beautiful be used to describe a boy?"
"Of course, Rongqing is very beautiful, making others really like it..."
Gu Bai didnt answer, only shy smiled.
Nan Lichen looked at his smile and suddenly reached out to his face. “The ink just now haven"t been wiped clean yet, like a spotted cat...”
"Ah, really? I"ll go wash it..."
Gu Bai looked very embarra.s.sed, while hurriedly rubbing his face with his hands, he turned around to go to the washroom to wash his face.
Seeing him anxious and bustling*, Nan Lichen grinned.
*手忙脚乱 one"s hands and feet were all in confusion
"You"re really easy to fool. It"s already clean, I was teasing you."
Gu Baixi looked at Nan Lichen and laughed very happily, the gentle voice carried a kind of magic that makes people become intoxicated.
The corners of his mouth revealed a thoughtful smile. He suddenly reached out and touched Nan Lichen"s face, gently and softly. Innocent eyes looked at Nan Lichen.
"Teacher, you also have ink on your face..."
“Huh?” Nan Lichen was tickled by the smooth and silky little hand on his face, caringly rubbing.
"No ink. Teacher, you"re also very easy to fool, hehehehe..."
The shy boy just now laughed brilliantly, like a naughty kitten that succeeded. The clear eyes rippled like water and the color of the pupil seem to change, with a special kind brighteness.
Nan Lichen smiled lightly, this hunting object seem to be more interesting and appealing than he imagined.
Gu Bai smiled at him but his heart is indifferent....
After that day, Nan Lichen’s att.i.tude toward him became even more ambiguous. Whenever he was alone, he always fixated at him with a extremely gently gaze, as if there were unspoken feelings in those eyes.
He also often look for excuses to make him stay back after school so that he can create a opportunity for them to get along together. Fortunately, Nie Qingcang just went on a business trip at this time and isn"t at home.
Gu Bai didn"t need to have a headache on how to explain to Nie Qingcang about the rebellious matter of him being "in love" with a man, to accompany Nan Lichen in acting and accompany him in being ambiguous.
Every time Nan Lichen seems to want an opportunity to confess to him, he uses a variety of "don"t care" methods to interrupt. The aloof att.i.tude makes Nan Lichen somewhat unable to fathom.
Obviously he"s just a young, inexperienced and naive boy but he felt more and more fascinated, like a treasure hunt. Gu Bai always inadvertently surprises him. Like an inexhaustible mountain of treasure, making people even more interested.
Especially when seeing Gu Bai"s smile, the pure feeling seems to be able to cleanse people"s soul, making people feel very comfortable and nostalgic.
Don"t know if it"s for the sake of the task or for something else, Nan Lichen found himself pondering over the boy more and more, the more he pondered, the more he surprises he discovered.
This seemingly innocent and ignorant teenager has a special attractiveness.
Nan Lichen knew that there was never a hunting target that managed to attract his attention like this boy...
Gu Bai also began to secretly check Nan Lichen"s information in private.
Although he knows the plot, that doesn"t mean he knows everything, but that"s not his real intention. In fact, whether he knows Nan Lichen’s affairs or not, it doesn"t matter because it won"t affect his task.
But this is one of Lu Rongqing’s wishes.
Lu Rongqing"s feelings about Nan Lichen are very complicated. It"s totally different from his first love with Fu Zixuan. Not only does he hate Nan Lichen, but he also love Nan Lichen.
He doesn"t understand why Nan Lichen had to listen to Wu Zhenzhen"s words and harm him. If he wanted money, he could give it to Nan Lichen. Not to mention, with Nan Lichen"s outstanding appearance and
shrewdness, a person like him won"t be that mediocre.
