One Useless Rebirth
Chapter 55: Summer Cold (3)

“Who was that?!” Di Chunhua went explosive again and raised her voice, “Was it Di Qiuhe the bastard? I knew it must be him! I’m gonna ruin him.

“What did I just tell you?” Qin Li grabbed her and thought about the phone call from her assistant An. Her eyes flashed and then she said in a low voice, “No. It can’t be Qi Qiuhe. He is not that powerful. This drama of blowing a breaking news then deleting it might look easy, but it needs a lot of connections and money to practice. Di Qiuhe doesn’t have them.”

Di Chunhua was struck hearing it and she asked immediately, “Then who could it be to pick on me?”

Suddenly someone knocked on the door, and heard the nanny saying, “Madam, Sir has just returned and is looking for you.”

Qin Li couldn’t help but sneer for a second, and then changed into her calm face soon. She dragged Di Chunhua up and spoke to the nanny, “Okay, I’m coming.”

“Mom?” Di Chunhua was terrified by her sneering, “What’s wrong with you and dad?”

“Nothing.” Qin Li looked down at her and touched her hair with a gentle smile, “Chunhua, always remember that all of mom’s tolerance and sacrifice now are for you and Xiasong to have a future that you don’t need to obey anyone. So please just stand for the moment, okay?”

Di Chunhua barely understood her yet she nodded.

In the border province, Di Qiuhe leaned on the window and was playing coins in his hand.

“So you mean assistant An wants to be with you?”

Wang Boyi’s eyes were full of complexity and nodded, “Yes, she said she has already shown her sincerity.”

Di Qiuhe raised his eyebrow and looked at him with a faint smile. He asked, “Then what about your decision?”

Wang Boyi bent down his head and went silent. He then looked up at him after a bit of struggling and said firmly, “I will listen to you.”

That was out of expectation but reasonable.

Di Qiuhe nodded and put those coins into his pocket and replied, “Then you can go back and console her. I will give you a short vacation.”

Wang Boyi unconsciously relaxed his slightly tightened body, and then a trace of self-mockery flashed in his eyes as he realized his change. He answered respectfully and then turned and left.

After he had left, Qi Qiuhe took out his phone and opened his secret WeChat account after a second of hesitation.

The message was from White and Whiter, “How have you been lately? Do you feel better now?”

It was from two days ago but he still hadn’t replied. It had been millions of times that he deleted those words in the reply column after typing them. He couldn’t help but felt a bit suffocated when he unconsciously thought of the way puppy squatting on the ground and cooking noodles for him.

This kind of clueless feeling made him confused and agitated, and he didn’t know how to get rid of it.

After a few minutes, he finally came back to himself and sighed slightly. He fell on the couch and then dialed Jiang Xiuwen’s number.

“Shoot, I would love to help if you want to kill your brother or yourself this time.”

Hearing a good friend’s voice, his suffocated mind got a little bit better. He asked, “What would you do if you just met a new friend and was being totally nice to him but he tricked you with a secret account?”

Jiang Xiuwen was struck for a bit and swallowed his sarcasm. He sat straight and asked, “So you were busted by puppy?”

“No. I am just asking. What would you do if you were tricked?”

“Well, I’d punch him and never speak to him again.” Jiang Xiuwen answered without hesitation.

Di Qiuhe went into silence.

“Now you want to be a good man and no more cheating?”

Di Qiuhe remained silent.

Jiang Xiuwen rolled his eyes. According to his understanding of his best friend, if he refused to speak then it was definitely because he was in a bad mood and mad at himself.

“That outcome I just mentioned is based on the situation that he finds out the truth first.” He stopped for a second and continued to say in a lower tone, “But if the cheater could tell the truth and apologize sincerely, I might just punch him but wouldn’t just cut off the relationship.”

Yet Di Qiuhe still remained silent.

Jiang Xiuwen had to suspect, “Hey you dumbass! Are you off the line or fooling me?”

“No.” Di Qiuhe finally talked, with a normal tone but sounded crestfallen, “Then what was the case when you are with someone and always feel hot and sweaty? Were you sick?”

“Hot and sweaty?”

“Yeah. Also tend to be emotional and stutter.”

Jiang Xiuwen’s face went funny and asked, “Tell me first, with whom you would have those feelings?”

“My brother.” Now he sounded like he was in a good mood.

“That puppy?” Jiang Xiuwen suddenly felt a bit choked and asked again, “A boy?”

Di Qiuhe was a little bit mad, “How can a brother be a girl?”

Jiang Xiuwen turned away his head and took a deep breath. He grabbed his phone tightly and then continued to ask, “What else symptoms do you have aside from feeling hot and sweaty? Such as heart bouncing, face blushing, legs relaxing or wanting to touch him and hug him and so on?”

“No heart bouncing.”

Jiang Xiuwen relieved.

“Sometimes my heart will bounce, but it’s just normal that my face blushed because it’s hot summer. And my brother is so cute, don’t you want to touch your brother in a friendly way?” Di Qiuhe answered naturally and also with some dissatisfaction, “Why are you asking so much? I thought you know a lot since your mom is a doctor. Now it seems that I have expected too much from you.”

Jiang Xiuwen covered his phone and screamed silently for a bit then went back to the line with a serious voice, “You just got a hot fever and it’s no big deal. You don’t need to take medicine, just drink some cold water and relax.”

Di Qiuhe doubted, “Drinking cold water for a hot fever? And how come I only get hot fever when I am with puppy?”

Jiang Xiuwen was racking his brain and fooled him, “Well, now it’s hot summer, I bet you are quite excited going to meet your brother. Also it takes a while for you to go there by car and walking, so you will definitely feel hot when you meet him. That’s totally normal, just drink more water.”

“Now it makes some sense.” Di Qiuhe answered with a thoughtful expression on his face.

This retarded…how dared he to say “Now it makes some sense.” Look how gay he had become for his “brother”! He deserved it all!

Jiang Xiuwen cursed secretly and tried so hard to comfort Di Qiuhe in a more certain tone. Finally he fooled all of his questions about his pure puppy love.

After the call, Jiang Xiuwen was covered with sweat. He fell on his couch and thought about the look and personality of He Bai, and also the personality and bad behaviors of his best friend. He was so in despair.

It was so screwed up. His best friend was gay. And he had fallen for a mysterious junior.

His best friend was already calling him “brother” all the time now, and this was because he was still innocent. What if he finally became not innocent…How could he get He Bai who was getting more and more talented and outstanding? He was such a bad dude and with all of those dishonest past. He would write his name backwards if they didn’t end up as enemies. And once he failed to get him…

That would be the end of the world!

No way! He would never let his best friend get it before he came up with a sound idea.

He stood up and cursed Di Qiuhe thousands of times at heart and then started to search for gay relationship tips.
