The Queen’s Gigolo

“You’re both grown-ups! Stop messing around!” Guo Zhi’s mom yelled with a spatula raised.

“We’re not messing around! Mom!” Guo Zhi locked her little brother’s hands on his back and said laughingly, “Little Guo Heng was watching cartoons. It’s him who hasn’t grown up! As his big sis, I was educating him!”

“You talk as if you’re grown up already! Go! You, wash your hands! You! Come here and help!”

Following Her Majesty Mom’s commands, the siblings from the Guo family stood up… the little brother obediently went to help in the kitchen; the big sister washed her hands and then laid in the sofa to continue watching… Fifty Shades of Gray in her little brother’s iPad…

She tsked as she watched and even laughed loudly when the CEO showed off his fortune.

When the exciting activity segment came, she unconsciously compared Alex and the CEO and felt… that Alex’s body was better! No doubt!

Alex’s body is really beautiful!

The feeling when touching it with my hands is extremely good!

When she thought about how she would be able to enjoy that beautiful body for the following week, Guo Ye’s mood became very good.

When Guo Heng came out with a plate, what he saw was the scene of his sister swaying her legs while watching his movie. His heart felt cold!

Once Guo Ye returned to her home, she would not be Guo Ye anymore. She was boss Guo Ye.

When she was in her home, she practically did not have to do any chores. Since she had her little brother anyways, anytime there was something to do, it was enough to call on the laborer.

This was the home where she grew up in from birth. It was the place that she longed to return to when she was working hard outside. In this place, she did not have to be serious and cold. She could lie down on the sofa like putty and stay like that for the whole weekend. Even though her mother nagged at her without end, she would try to prepare all her favorite food to eat. Even though her dad held the newspaper almost all the time and did not talk a lot, he would always call her on Fridays when she left work to ask if she would return that weekend and would wait for her at the train station. Even though her little brother was like a girl and always tried to go against her, whenever she gave orders and commands, he would fulfill them, albeit with an unwilling face.

This was home!

It was the most comfortable place under the skies.

Beside one thing…

“How was the guy? When will you bring him back to let me see?” Guo Zhi’s mom asked. Her father and little brother also turned their caring gazes towards them.

Guo Zhi almost choked, hurriedly drank water, and perfunctorily said: “It’s still early, we should at least date for four to eight months before doing that…”

“But you should still let me have a look! Fast, bring him back fast to let me see.”

“Ok, ok, ok, I know, let’s eat first.” Guo Zhi lacked spirit.

Her mom did not want to let go of her so easily though: “What does he look like? Is he good-looking?”

Guo Zhi bit her chopsticks: “He’s okay, a normal person.” Like a dog.

“The way you talk like sounds bad! Tsk!” Her mom reprimanded her and continued asking, “Do you feel like he is good?”

Guo Zhi thought for a moment and then complimented him: “He is a person that knows how to live.” Someone who does not spend on something if it isn’t necessary in an extreme way.

Guo Zhi’s mom liked to hear that. “That is good. If everybody were like you, spending money everywhere, how would they be able to live! I feel like he is good. You complement each other, and he would help you save money.”

Towards her mom’s belief of ‘saving money is the way to live’, Guo Zhi snorted: “Money is not earned by saving, it is earned by working hard.”

“No matter how good you are at earning money, you still shouldn’t spend it as if there is no limit…” Her mom started to mumble about her old-fashioned financial concepts. In the end, she concluded with: “Thank goodness that man is good and knows how to save money to live. Bring him back so I can see him, fast!”

Father Guo also nodded: “We will help you see if he’s a good man.”

“Okay, okay, stop nagging you two, I’m going to get some stomach sickness again…” Guo Zhi drank everything in her bowl and extended it to the opposite side: “Hey!”

Seeing the empty bowl that was right in front of his face, the little brother that was at the bottom of the food chain: “…” He felt cold but also filled the bowl with soup out of reflex.

He was used to his sister ordering him to do things since he was small.

Guo Zhi though, was thinking in her mind that the useless man could only be used for at most two more weekends, no longer. The first reason was because her mom was already starting to ask her to bring him back. If she saw the living person, there was a chance that the useless man could trick her mom into believing that he was a capable young man and cause her mom to force her to get married. That was not something that she would allow!

The second reason was that the man was too self-confident and thought that he was attractive. Guo Zhi could feel that he believed that it was her pleasure to be able to date him… since he was able to mention sending her home yesterday, then maybe he could even come up with something like going to her house next time.

Tsk!

If he had a body and face like Alex’s, I would open the door for him. Unfortunately, he does not!

Rest in peace.

Before sleeping at night, she opened WeChat and pressed on her chat with Alex: [Is everything fine?]

Alex: [Sister Guo! I miss you! *^_^*]

Guo Zhi: “…” This kid! His mouth is becoming sweeter! She smiled unconsciously and her mood that was relaxed became even better.

[Do you feel comfortable in my house?] Guo Zhi asked.

[I do. I cleaned and did the grocery shopping. (◡‿◡)] Alex reported.

Guo Zhi praised: [Not bad, not bad.]

Alex then asked: [Sister Guo, will you eat tomorrow when you return? I’ll cook for you. The food that I cook is very delicious! (づ￣ 3￣)づ]

Oh? Really? Then I should try.

Guo Zhi: [Okay, then I’ll eat tomorrow.]

Alex: [o((>ω< ))o]

Guo Zhi: [I’ll sleep, sleep early too.]

Alex: [I’ll sleep as I think about you. （//▽//）]

Guo Zhi: […]

Guo Zhi: [Sleep! What are you flirting for!] Does he not want me to be able to sleep!

Alex: [ (|3[▓▓] ]

Guo Zhi: “…” tsk!

She laid down to sleep…

…

…

I can’t sleep!

Bad kid! Flirting before sleep!

Guo Ye laid on her bed with her eyes wide open while gritting her teeth.

Alex looked at his phone and knew that he was able to successfully tease sister Guo.

He laid down satisfactorily.

The underground basement was humid and cold. Even for a young man like Alex, it would be uncomfortable after living in it for a long time.

Guo Zhi’s house was dry and fresh. He fell asleep rapidly…

Guo enjoyed a comfortable and relaxing weekend and boarded a high-speed rail on Sunday at five in the afternoon to return to the capital.

Guo Zhi replied: [The exact time of return is six thirty. I’ll probably arrive at around seven, depending on the traffic.]

Alex instantly replied: [Call me when you arrive so that I may start stir frying the food.]

Guo Zhi replied with a [Ok.]

One and a half hour passed very fast while playing on the cellphone. Guo Zhi took a cab in the train station and called Alex: “I’m already on the cab.”

There was not much traffic on Sunday, so by seven, she was already back.

Opening the door to her apartment, she smelled a delicious aroma. The door to the kitchen was closed, but the sound of stir frying could be heard.

She went into her room. Having one person at home, and that person was cooking for her… that was the first time Guo Zhi experienced something like this, and it was a bit novel.

“Alex!” She threw the key into the key storing bowl and yelled, “I’m back!”

“Sister Guo!” Alex was wearing an apron. He opened the kitchen door and leaned his body out, “The food will be ready soon, wash your hands first.”

After saying that, he turned and revealed his bare back. His shoulders were wide, and his waist was slim with tight muscles. The jeans were loosely hanging on his hips, and his butt was firm and round.

Guo Zhi watched that back and suddenly remembered the shoujo manga that she read when she was in middle school. A beautiful man half-naked and wearing an apron… she vaguely remembered that she had once dreamed of that…

Who would’ve thought… that I would be able to see something like that in my own house? Life is unpredictable!

Guo Zhi washed her hands, opened her closet, and took out a threaded vest dress. The long vest covered her butt exactly. It was both a top and a dress. It could also be used as pajamas.

When she returned to the living room, she noticed that the apartment was very clean. It was not that she was usually dirty, but since she lived alone, there were many things that she was lazy to tidy up, and it became messy like that.

And now, everything was in order. The things that she was accustomed to using were in their original places, but they were arranged properly and gave others a feeling of being orderly and clean.

“Do you need my help for anything?” Guo Zhi stood on the entrance to the kitchen and asked. She was only asking politely, since cooking… Her family did not let her into the kitchen easily, since they feared that she would do something that could be detrimental and ruin the food.

“No need.” Alex twisted his body and pecked her on her lips, “Go and sit for a moment, it’ll be ready soon.”

Guo Zhi licked her lips, seems… like there is the flavor of oil!

Sniffing with her nose, she could not resist and asked: “What fragrance is this? The whole place is filled with it, it’s really good!”

Alex replied simply: “Soup.”

“You even know how to make soup?” Guo Zhi was surprised.

Alex said that he knew how to cook, but Guo Zhi thought that ‘know how to cook’ meant that he was able to cook rice and stir fry some food. When the food was placed on the dinner table, she finally knew that she was completely wrong.

Alex truly knows how to cook! He made ribs! He knows how to braise them! To Guo Zhi, who did not have the talent of cooking, braising ribs was a very complex dish!

The other dish was a plate of fried cowpea. There were some bits of chili, and it was stir-fried dry. Just looking at it made people feel appetite.

There was also a cold dish. It was meat jelly cut into strips. Alex personally made the dip sauce.

The soup was bitter gourd ribs soup. The ribs were taken out to be braised, and the only remaining thing in the soup was the bitter gourd. They floated around inside and released an enticing smell.

For two people, it was three dishes and one soup!

Guo Zhi was so moved that she wanted to cry. This was what was called ‘being able to live’!

Just as she wanted to praise Alex and raised her head, the handsome boy took off the apron with his head lowered, revealing a tempting body, and sat down on the chair.

Guo Zhi: “…”

“Shoot! Put on some clothes!” Guo Zhi extended a finger to poke at him, “Do you want me to eat the food or you first?”

“You can eat any of them first.” Alex smiled happily and stood up to hug Guo Zhi and kiss her for a long time.

Since it was the first time that he cooked for Guo Zhi, and he did not want to waste the results of his hard work, he kissed her for a while until she was dazed and then said: “Let’s eat first, otherwise it will become cold later.”

“Eat me later…” He pecked her lips and returned to his room to put on clothes.

Guo Zhi: “…” Bad rascal that only teases me! Teasing me and then leaving!

She sat down with disappointment and took a bite out of the piece of rib that she grabbed with her chopsticks.

Guo Zhi: “…” it’s very delicious!

Guo Zhi was full after eating a bowl of rice. She rubbed her tummy and examined Alex who had gotten a third bowl…

Good-looking, great body, tall height… and even knows how to cook! The heavens really aren’t fair!

Why do I suddenly feel like I found a treasure…

Alex finished the third bowl very fast and stood up to start cleaning.

Guo Zhi hesitated a bit. She felt that letting someone cook and making them also clean was not right. She stood up and half-heartedly tried to steal: “Don’t, I’ll do it…?”

“No need, sister Guo.” They just finished eating and there was a flavor in their mouths, so Alex did not kiss her. He lowered his head and used his forehead to touch hers: “You have me; you don’t need to care about household chores.”

He carried the plates and turned to go to the kitchen.

I think that, ever since I graduated from university and broke up with my boyfriend, I haven’t experienced something as sweet as this again…

Guo Zhi stood there and touched her forehead.
