Ch38 - Singing the Greatest Show (15) — Exposed

Heavy panting rang in his ears. He Changhuai didn’t move, and Su An couldn’t see, but his ears were sensitive, and he knew what he was waiting for in an instant.

Su An actually liked a boy before. 

But he was a fake flower of Gaoling, he was optimistic, but there was still a little inferiority complex. He did a great job on the surface, and no matter how vulgar he was in his heart, he didn’t want people to look down on him. He had a crush on someone for a few years, and as this heavy feeling was in his heart, he pretended well. He was lukewarm to the boy and no one could see that he liked him.

Su An also sadly thought about the time when this bitter crush would come to an end. That boy, as long as he gets a partner, that would kill his thoughts. But the good guy did not even have a partner, nor did he engage in any ambiguous relationship, in the end he ended up in a car accident.

 

 

Su An almost cried when he arrived at the hospital, but that person could not be saved. He still has a lot of things he hasn’t said, and a lot of things he hasn’t done.

His childhood experience made him dare not approach the boy, and made him refuse to accept the boy’s kindness. But thinking about it now, he couldn’t even remember what that person looked like, only that pair of dark eyes, and the scene where he was lying on the hospital bed and reaching out to him. 

“Don’t forget me, Su An. My name is Jiang…”

 

Jiang what?

Can not remember.

When he thought about that person who he had a crush on, his mood was sour and astringent, and he felt so bad that he wanted to burst into tears. But what did the boy look like and what did he say to him?

 

He can’t remember anything.

Su An thought he was probably a heartless white-eyed wolf like what that old man, who taught him to steal, said when he was a child.

Su An grabbed the sheet, and He Changhuai held his hand. He suddenly taught a lot, making his mind drift into a trance.

 

He Changhuai asked in a hoarse voice: “Who is this man?” 

“He Changhuai…” Su An was lost in thought, and with a teardrop falling down, he sobbing in pain, “Get out of here! If the Second Master He catches you, you will be punished to death!”

He originally wanted to stimulate He Changhuai again, but suddenly he didn’t want to scold him like that.

Forget it, just compliment him twice.

He Changhuai laughed silently, his heart was hot, and he rudely held Su An’s face and kissed him a few times, then deliberately said in a harsh tone of voice: “Never heard of this guy. What is he capable of? I can’t be afraid of him.” 

Su An struggled to beat him, “Second Master He is very capable, he won’t let you go!”

He Changhuai never knew that Su An trusted him so much, and he was speechless for a moment, unable to say anything else. In the end, the silence pulled the people back in and put them back into the next round.

That night, Boss Ye’s voice was completely hoarse.

The next morning, the scorching sun came in. When Ye Su’an opened his eyes, the bandit, who came in through the window last night, had already disappeared. His eyes were red with anger, that bandit dared to follow him back to Jingcheng, so arrogant and lawless, did he really think that he can’t do anything? 

Several people were called to the vigil that night. Ye Su’an was vigilant for a few days, and when the night came, he finally came down, and there was no more news about the bandit running in. He breathed a sigh of relief, but when he went to the cloth shop to take his Dan’s costume in time, he was dragged between layers of clothing, then was pressed by the neck and was kissed in an empty cloth shop.

Su An felt as if he was trapped in a dangerous jungle, and even now and then, there were dangers jumping from all sides. Su An was constantly on guard from morning to night. He was paranoid all day long, and felt that his nerves had weakened. If this goes on, he might die suddenly.

 

He Changhuai’s purpose was very simple, he just wanted to tell Su An: He can only get an airtight protection by being by He Changhuai’s side.

Jiang Zhengrong was busy during the day, and only had some time in the afternoon and morning to talk to Su An. Su An secretly observed whether he was Chu He himself.

He still remembered what the Taoist priest had said, the omen of death. After thinking about it, combined with Jiang Zherong’s changes, maybe the real Jiang Zherong was already dead. Now, the guy who was always trying to make him a canary was most likely Chu He. 

But this was just his suspicion. Su An not only has to know who Chu He is, he also has to find a way to know what Chu He’s mission is in traversing the world.

After breakfast, Jiang Zhengrong went to take care of things, while Su An deliberately slipped into the backyard and hid to listen to the conversation of the servant girls and boys.

“Are there really no crying sounds these days?” 

“I said you all were overly suspicious. In this broad daylight, how could there be any sound of crying, ah.”

“You are new here, of course, you don’t know. The backyard has been quiet for many days. Several times before when the sound was still there, if you heard it, ah, maybe you’ll be scared shitless, hahaha.”

This was not the first time Su An has heard something about the backyard.

He secretly inquired about a lot of things. In general, no one except Jiang Zhengrong could enter the backyard. The more it was like this, the more it shows that there was a secret. After a few days, Su An went to digest food in the yard after dinner. Pretending to leave without going through the backyard, he found a good place to hide. After a few more consecutive days, he finally witnessed Jiang Zhengrong walk into the backyard with a sullen face and a whip in his hand. 

Su An hid in the corner behind the tree and listened to the noise.

Shortly after, the screaming cries rang out. Su An was startled by the scream, there was a really crying sound inside this backyard!

The wind was cold, and there was nothing but crying. Su An couldn’t hear Jiang Zhengrong or anyone else’s voice. It sounded like a man or a woman, it was horse and shrill like an old crow, not like a voice that a human could make, and it was so cold that it almost gave him goosebumps.

Su An shrank back, and suddenly heard a sound behind him. His whole body froze, and when he looked back, he saw He Changhuai jumped over the wall with his face covered. 

Su An: “…”

Brother, why do you always come either early or late and insist on playing with him?

 

Su An was shocked by his appearance that looked like a masked superman, and abruptly stood still.

The man with his face covered grinned and hugged him, “Daughter-in-law, you really made me look for you.” 

Su An: “…”

He began to miss He Changhuai in the daytime.

He Changhuai dragged him into the corner, and touched him with his two hands if he lost any flesh. Su An felt numb all over, he forcefully bit his lip, so as not to make any sound, while still half-heartedly listening to the voices in the backyard.

“Go away,” he said in a low voice, “This is Jiang’s residence! What do you want to do?” 

Don’t make trouble, don’t make trouble. Please, let me hear what secrets this backyard has.

“What do you think I want to do?” He Changhuai suppressed his throat. After forcing his daughter-in-law to redden his eyes, he said with a smirk, “I have already inquired about it, What ability does Jiang Zhengrong, the president of a small chamber of commerce, have? If I overturn the wall of his house, even if he ask you now, he won’t be able to find a person. With this level of his ability, do you still expect him to protect you?”

Su An couldn’t believe it, “Impossible!”

“In the entire Jincheng, the only person who can make us, bandits fear, is He Changhuai,” He Changhuai then added, “Fortunately, he is out now. Little beauty, without He Changhuai to protect you, of course, I will do whatever I want to you.” 

There was a crack on Su An’s face, he never expected He Changhuai to say such shameless words. He Changhuai just thought he was scared, and laughed twice, he then pinhead Su An’s chin, “Close your eyes, open your mouth.”

Ye Su’an closed his eyes in shame.

How many times had he had been told not to try to resist this man, this man will only get more excited because of his struggles. Like a demon, he brought Ye Su’an a nightmare that he couldn’t wake up from.

This place was hidden, and Su An was kissed so much that he couldn’t close his mouth. Then his ears twitched, and he heard movement not far away. 

He exerted all of his strength to see with the corner of his eyes. There he saw Jiang Zhengrong walking out of the backyard, with a flick of the whip in his hand, scarlet blood dropped and fell on the withered and yellow ground.

Su An’s breathing changed, he unconsciously bit down, and bit into something soft.

The man groaned in pain, then hugged Su An even harder, and punished him with a deep kiss.

Su An’s eyes shifted to him. 

His face was still covered with a ridiculous black cloth, but his chin and lips were exposed. His lips were full, they were sexy when he smiled, and he looked angry when he did not smile. His chin line was firm and it should have reflected the appearance of a tough man.

Boss Ye was weakly kissed by him, but a terrible thought suddenly appeared in his heart. He seemed to be submissively accepting this man’s aggression, crying softly, and tactfully turning eighteen bends, which really made people’s bones brittle. 

Then while the man was addicted to it, he touched the black cloth with his fingers and lifted it up without hesitation.

——But his hand was held by the man in time.

The man put his hand to his lips and gave it a kiss, laughing deeply, “Naughty.”

After speaking, Su An resisted. He then opened his mouth and whistled, and a thick rope was thrown in from  the outside. 

The man tied Su An several times with a thick rope, and lifted Su An upward. Someone outside pulled Su An away. Su An’s eyes widened and looked down at He Changhuai, unable to believe what he was doing.

The man narrowed his eyes at him and smiled a little, “Take him back to be Madam Yazhai.”

… 

After He Changhuai sent Su An out, he turned around and walked to the backyard.

When Jiang Zhengrong came out, he locked the door, so He Changhuai opened the door from the inside by taking advantage of a large tree at the side to flip in. He looked around in the backyard and followed the blood drops to the corner side room.

The side room was dark and damp, with moss crawling on the walls. The smell of blood was strong, and there was a tortured old man lying on the bed.

It was an old eunuch in a dirty and smelly eunuch’s uniform. 

The old eunuch has already fallen into a coma, and he didn’t notice his arrival at all. He Changhuai pushed open the door and block it with a stone. After making sure that the old eunuch can escape from here after waking up, he slowly turned and left.

In the alley outside the Jiang residence.

Su An had already been bound and stuffed into the carriage. A group of men, who were also masked, stood around and nodded slightly to He Changhuai.

He Changhuai got into the carriage, he smiled when he saw Su An, and then he ordered in a low voice: “Get out of the city.” 

After Su An was taken to the bandit’s den, he was locked in the room with delicious food and was not allowed to go out. After two days of decadent life, Su An felt so comfortable that he had gained weight.

 

He Changhuai didn’t look for him either. Su An knew what this guy wanted to do. While he was locked up and bored, one day, there were sudden shouts and killings outside, then someone shouted: “Someone has gone up the mountain! Run!”

Su An was stunned for a moment, then the door was kicked open with force. He Changhuai was in a mess, and there was a lump of dust on his coat. He has sharp eyebrows, but when he saw Su An, his eyes lip up instantly, and he dragged Su An and ran, “Come with me.” 

Su An stumbled, and was even more shocked when he went out. The outside was chaotic and messy. The two sides were mixed together, and no one had time to take care of them.

“This is…” Su An frowned, “What’s going on?”

He Changhuai’s face was also covered with dirty ashes, and the hair on his temples was scattered,  and he said quickly: “I only found out that you were missing when I came back from the north. I led people to search for a long time, and finally found the bandit mountain. The bandit you said who insulted you has taken one of my bullets and had already made sure that he died in the back of the mountain.”

He then turned his head apologetically, “Boss Ye, the situation is urgent, and didn’t let you take revenge with your own hands.” 

Ye Su’an was in a dazed state, he was taken down the mountain by He Changhuai, and watched the bandit den get further and further away. His eyes were blank, and he couldn’t feel any sense of authenticity from He Changhuai’s words.

The bandit was dead? The bandit who bullied him repeatedly died like just that?

Without his knowledge?

Ye Su’an was not a fool, nor was he unaware of the darkness of the world. The things that felt wrong in the past came to his mind little by little. His gaze gradually moved to He Changhuai’s body, with a focused look and dark eyes. 

He Changhuai turned around and gave him a reassuring smile. He took a clean towel from the side and wet it with water, he then wiped it over his neck and hands, “Boss Ye, I’m late, I’m sorry.”

Ye Su’an lowered his eyes and said slowly: “It’s not too late. The Second Master can still remember me when he comes back and runs around just to find me. It is I who should thank the Second Master. What a blessing in my life.” He pronounces his last words extremely slowly.

He Changhuai felt that something was wrong, so he put down the towel and looked at Ye Su’an. Ye Su’an smiled lightly, his white teeth appeared behind his red lips, “Second Master, isn’t that right?”

He Changhuai hesitated for a moment and said with a smile, “What Boss Ye said is true.” 

Sunnyshies: Seriously, I dunno whether to pity He Changhuai or laugh at his desperation esp, not that “Ye Su’an” has come to a realization, at least, I still shed a single tear when Su An left uncle He waiting in the park for the whole day in arc 1. But He Changhuai is here advertising himself…Hahaha…Anyway, we’re going to running away scene again.
