There were no lights in the bathroom; it was very dark when the door was closed.
Meng Youcheng began to take off his clothes, and his mind unconsciously began to imagine how ugly Jiang Yuming would look if he came here to take a bath.
"Uncle...help! There are so many spiders inside!"
No, no, it can't be that bad...
Given his eccentric personality, he definitely wouldn't scream for help. At most, he'd skip taking a shower, rush out, and start dancing somewhere.
hey-hey……
interesting……
The man sighed, cupped his hands in water, splashed the spiders off the wall, and then stomped on them one by one.
We still can't go too far...
What if I get so scared that I have a mental illness?
Ten minutes later, he finally finished washing, got dressed, and carried the bucket back to his room.
The boy had finished sweeping the floor, and he looked around aimlessly...
"Uncle, you're back?"
Meng Youcheng nodded...
"Go take a shower..."
Jiang Yuming thought for a moment, "Where?"
"Next to the toilet downstairs."
The boy was a little annoyed; he definitely didn't want to go, it just smelled awful there...
"Aren't you going to take a shower? How are you going to sleep tonight? And you stink! Go take a shower, I'll take you."
Jiang Yuming then said "Oh".
Meng Youcheng added, "I had to fetch water myself and carry it down; there was no tap down there..."
The boy said "Oh" again.
The water was heavy, and he had to carry it downstairs. Meng Youcheng didn't want to help him; it was too tiring. Although he did want to highlight their respective personas, he still had to do the hard work himself!
In no time, the water was full...
Jiang Yuming rolled up his sleeves and then easily lifted the water...
His biceps were large, his entire arm was thick, and he could lift water without flinching. The veins on his arms bulged, exuding a strong sexual tension.
The man stared at his arm, somewhat shocked.
I hadn’t paid much attention to his arm before. This thing is so big, wouldn’t it be able to kill someone with one punch?
Meng Youcheng walked ahead, and he followed behind...
This brat walks very steadily, as if this weight is nothing to him.
Meng Youcheng led Jiang Yuming to the bathroom, closed the door, and turned to leave...
"Uncle..."
Meng Youcheng stopped in his tracks. "What?"
"You, you..."
The boy's tone was somewhat hurried, "Are you about to leave?"
Meng Youcheng chuckled. "Why aren't you leaving? You're not going to let me see you taking a bath..."
"I……"
The man sighed. "Nothing else, I'm leaving now."
"Uncle...!"
Jiang Yuming called out again...
"what?"
"you……"
What exactly does he want to do?
What's wrong with you?
Meng Youcheng thought for a while, then said, "There are no spiders inside, so you can wash it without worry..."
"Oh, you..."
With a creak, the door opened.
Meng Youcheng stared at him incredulously. "You're done washing?"
The boy's clothes were somewhat disheveled, clearly because he hadn't dried himself off properly; his shirt clung tightly to his body...
"Um……"
He tugged hard...
"It hasn't been five minutes, are you really clean yet?"
"Um……"
……
After taking a shower and doing laundry, I got ready to go to bed.
The bed sheets were already laid out, and Meng Youcheng began laying out the sheets on the floor...
Jiang Yuming sat on the bed, looking at him, "Uncle, why don't you sleep on the bed, and I'll sleep on the floor..."
Wow...
What's wrong with this young master?
Why doesn't he resemble a young master from a novel at all?
Meng Youcheng shook his head, "No need, the ground is so cold, and besides..."
"You're so old..."
Jiang Yuming interrupted him, "Sleeping on the floor must be very uncomfortable, let me switch with you..."
Meng Youcheng: ? ? ?
It's not you, brother...
Who the hell is old?
Are you really insane?
Excuse me, was this done on purpose?!
The man made the bed, turned to look at him, and said, "There are spiders on the floor. Are you sleeping here too?"
"I……"
The boy was speechless and didn't say anything more.
Meng Youcheng took out his phone and looked at it. "It's still early, let's chat for a while. By the way, I still don't know your specific identity, let's introduce ourselves..."
Jiang Yuming finally snapped out of his embarrassment. "What do we do?"
"I'll go first. My surname is Meng, my name is Meng Youcheng, I'm 30 years old, 175 cm tall, and weigh 70 kg. It's your turn."
The boy was stunned. "My surname is Jiang, Jiang Yuming. I am 19 years old, 183 cm tall, and weigh 72 kg."
What?!
Is he really only 19 years old?
isn't it?
No wonder he always seemed like a boys' high school student...
Meng Youcheng hesitated before asking, "You didn't go to university? Was it because you didn't get in... or for some other reason?"
The boy shook his head. "I took the exam, it was just average. My dad forced me to choose a major I didn't like, so I dropped out of school. Then a talent scout found me, and that's how I ended up here..."
Meng Youcheng thought for a moment, "Why do you want to be a star? Is this your dream?"
"Um... I come from a bad background, so... I want to experience a different kind of background."
Are you okay, buddy?
You call your background a bad thing?
Born with a silver spoon in their mouth, destined to inherit trillions of dollars, is that really a bad thing?
Meng Youcheng: "What... isn't this good?"
"I have no spiritual roots, no 'Kagune,' and I've never eaten a Devil Fruit. My background is practically useless."
The man couldn't believe his ears...
What is he saying?
Spiritual roots? Kagune? And Devil Fruits... isn't that...?
Jiang Yuming added, "I want to be a great hero, I want to be an unparalleled existence, I want to be able to turn the world upside down with a wave of my hand, but I can't, because I was born into a very poor family, so I can only become a star and experience that kind of life."
Awesome!
After all that, Meng Youcheng was at a loss for words.
He thought for a moment and then asked, "Does my family know?"
Do your family members know how mentally unstable you are?
The boy shook his head. "They wouldn't let me, so I ran away from home..."
The world has finally turned upside down.
Meng Youcheng sighed and asked again, "Why did you dislike me so much when we first met? Was there something about me... that made you uncomfortable?"
The boy looked at him and shook his head.
After a long pause, he finally spoke, "You look a bit like the person who kidnapped me when I was a child."
what? !
I……?!
Meng Youcheng: "You're saying I look like a human trafficker?!"
"No...it's a feeling."
The boy thought for a moment, "When that person kidnapped me, he gave me a kind and friendly feeling, like he was a really good person, and then I was tricked by him..."
"My brother told me that the kindest-looking person is often the worst, and you shouldn't easily trust them..."
"But... I'm not afraid of you!"
Jiang Yuming said somewhat excitedly, "I'm not afraid of you at all, I am...!"
So...you're afraid of me?!
No wonder they targeted me from the beginning; they were afraid of me and wanted to use this method to distance themselves from me.
It's such a pity, though. If I weren't so shameless and had a mission to complete, I'm afraid I really would have left!
Meng Youcheng thought for a moment, then asked, "Are you still afraid of me?"
"I already told you, I'm not afraid of you! I'm just..."
"Okay, okay... It's not fear. Do you still have those feelings for me?" The man thought for a moment. "Those feelings you have for a human trafficker?"
The boy hesitated for a long time, then said, "Um..."
There's more...
The man sighed, lay down, and looked at him. "You have a brother? Didn't you say you were the heir to the Jiang Group?"
The boy lay down as well, looking down at him. "Well, my brother started his own business a long time ago. He's my own brother, and he doesn't really want to inherit Dad's fortune. So, I'm the heir."
Meng Youcheng nodded, seemingly understanding...
Compared to all of these, he wanted to ask the boy a question.
"Why do you keep calling me 'uncle'? Do I look... really that old? I'm only 30."
"My uncle is 30 years old..."
Jiang Yuming thought for a long time before speaking, "My brother told me to call you whatever I want. I've seen you think about it for a while, and I think you're probably 30 years old, so I'll call you 'Uncle.' That should be fine, right?"
Now that you mention it...
He's 19 years old this year, 11 years younger than me, so I guess I could call him "uncle"?
But……?
Ugh……
Meng Youcheng looked at him and sighed...
The boy thought for a moment and then said, "I rarely see people, so I'm not very good at calling out to them. I guess it's okay to call out like that?"
The man looked at him. "You rarely see people? What does that mean?"
"I was abducted when I was little, right? Then my brother told my dad to stay home and not go out. I even had a private tutor for school, but..."
"I think they're overthinking it. I'm not scared at all!"
No wonder……
Meng Youcheng looked at him...
For some reason, the man noticed his nose immediately; Jiang Yuming's nose was very high and straight.
Meng Youcheng immediately smiled and asked, "How old are you?"
The boy looked at him with a puzzled expression. "Didn't I just say that? I'm 19 years old..."
That's not what you're asking...
The man smiled maliciously and said, "He's your brother."
