Chapter 35 - If You Want It, I’ll Give It To You
Thanks to my editor Gold Fairy~
“I don't have anything, I’ve never had anything since I was young. A person like me should be spending their days in solitude. How is it that you appeared before me?”
“You are a big boss, a billionaire. If you stamp your feet, it would cause an entire city to tremble for a few days. A person like you could pursue anyone they wanted. Why me?”
Gu Bokai turned his head around and replied, “Who said I like you? I simply like your skin. Cheng Jinyu, you are too f*cking good looking.”
Cheng Jinyu chuckled. “So actually you were just looking at my appearance. You should have said that earlier.”
Gu Bokai suddenly turned around. “What do you mean?”
Cheng Jinyu replied, “Since we married, you’ve taken good care of me. Without you, perhaps I would have collapsed early on. Aren’t you just looking at my skin? I’ll give it to you.”
“Cheng Jinyu, is what you’re saying true?”
Cheng Jinyu did not pay attention to him. “I am not a female, it’s not unreasonable.”
“You’re the one who said it.”
Cheng Jinyu had not even said ‘yes’ when Gu Bokai dragged Cheng Jinyu out of the car.
Cheng Jinyu was flustered. “What are you trying to do?”
“Renting a room.” Cheng Jinyu instantly became more flustered. “You… you... can’t we just go home?”
“Out of the question. I’m afraid that you’ll black out by the time we get home.”
Gu Bokai pulled Cheng Jinyu out of the car, then found a random hotel and entered. Pulled by Gu Bokai into a room, Cheng Jinyu’s calm and collectedness instantly vanished.
The alcohol in him had already diminished to very little and the urge from just now also vanished. Across from him, Gu Bokai had eyes like a hungry wolf. Cheng Jinyu felt that his whole body was a bit scared.
“Do you want to shower first?” Cheng Jinyu gulped.
“Finish then shower.” Gu Bokai directly said.
“But…” Cheng Jinyu had no chance to finish his sentence. Gu Bokai directly blocked up his mouth and all of his words inside of him.
Cheng Jinyu’s entire body began to tremble. This strange dread made him a bit frightened. Gu Bokai was like a wild animal. It seemed like he couldn't wait to swallow him whole.
With a great force, Cheng Jinyu pushed against him, but it was like Gu Bokai’s body was made of steel, unwaveringly pressing Cheng Jinyu’s down.
Gu Bokai’s movements were big. In a flash, he tore Cheng Jinyu’s clothes off. Cheng Jinyu was originally thin and weak. He simply could not shove away the bold and powerful Gu Bokai.
His mind was a complete mess. The words he spoke, he could not back out of it. Cheng Jinyu was not a person whose words meant nothing. Perhaps he really was drunk. He really wanted to sink into it, sink into the embrace of this man named Gu Bokai.
Although Gu Bokai’s actions were very fierce, but after entering Cheng Jinyu’s body, he was extremely gentle and soft.
Cheng Jinyu held onto this man above him. It was similar to holding onto a huge ball of fire. This feeling of two becoming one, this feeling of merging together, this feeling of close intimacy, this feeling of not being alone anymore.
Little by little, Cheng Jinyu’s tears began to fall. Gu Boaki kissed his eyes, took his tears and swallowed it into his own belly.
Drunk on indulgence, Cheng Jinyu next day at noon finally woke up. When he woke up, he realized he was already in Gu Bokai’s room.
His body was very comfortable and was already cleaned. Previously, he definitely did not think they would have sexual intercourse. Cheng Jinyu had foolishly thought this when they first met.
Cheng Jinyu thought for a while, but could not think of a single clue. The days at Chen House, he was like a walking corpse. He simply did not remember if someone was close to him or if someone left.
Gu Bokai was sitting on the sofa looking at his notebook very earnestly. When he turned his head around to look, Cheng Jinyu just happened to have woken up.
Gu Bokai's mouth immediately smiled. “Awake? Eat something first. Sister Hong sent some food over.”
Cheng Jinyu’s face was burning a bit. The events that happened yesterday were all in his mind. Cheng Jinyu looked again at the person in front of him and felt even more embarrassed.
Gu Bokai’s entire face was full of cheer, like he had eaten and drunk to his heart’s content. From head to toe, he seemed like he was about to spit bubbles.
Cheng Jinyu looked at the clock on the headboard. It was already past 11.
“This late? You didn’t wake me up? I’m late for work.”
“Still going to work, didn’t you want to resign?”
Cheng Jinyu was prepared to resign. He didn’t know why, perhaps because of yesterday’s attack, or perhaps because this person's words were too shocking, but last night Cheng Jinyu decided to make that kind of decision.
Cheng Jinyu forced a smile. He was a man who also had selfish wishes. Thinking more about it was not beneficial. It was better to think about how to make the new company work.
Cheng Jinyu ate a few bites of the food Sister Hong sent over. Gu Bokai continued to sit across from Cheng Jinyu, his gaze continuing to nail into him.
“Is there something on my face?”
“No.”
“Then why do you keep looking at me?”
Gu Bokai’s expression sank. “What do you think I'm looking at?”
Cheng Jinyu shrugged. “I don’t know.”
Gu bokai was annoyed. “You're just a pig head.”
Cheng Jinyu did not respond to him. Gu Bokai was originally a hopeless romantic. He thought that two people who went through the night together would definitely stick together like glue. However facts showed that it was not true. The wolf cub in front of his eyes did not really change from before. He merely sat on the stool seemingly uncomfortable, and didn't stop turning his hips.
Gu Bokai couldn't help but find it funny. Recalling this person’s embarrassed appearance from last night, he couldn't help but lick his tongue. He really wished to continue something!
Gu Bokai turned around and brought out some data from a briefcase. “This is the location I picked for the company. It's the large building across from your current workplace. I already rented out three floors. It should be enough for you to use.”
“Why did you pick there?” Cheng Jinyu asked.
Gu Bokai smiled and said, “You fell from there, so then you’ll crawl back up from there. Doesn't Jiang Zihan look down on you? You need him to see your capability. Cheng Jinyu, I’ll say these ugly words in front of you. I can give you money, but I won’t supervise you with everything in the company.”
“You want to begin an entrepreneurship and you want them to attach importance to you. You need to personally do this yourself.”
Cheng Jiny received the materials. “This is precisely what I wanted.”
Cheng Jinyu drank his congee while also looking at the data. A serious Cheng Jinyu emitted out a mature man’s charm with a hint of temperance. Looking at him made Gu Bokai’s heart itch unbearably.
Cheng Jinyu finished eating and said, “I need to make a trip to the company. I just need to resign and hand over work.”
“I’ll help you do it.”
“No need.”
“It's best if you hurry and resign. The company is already rented for you. Delaying a day is a waste of a couple thousands.”
“Who told you to move that fast? By the way, didn’t you say you weren’t going to care about my business?”
“I’m cheap, ok?”
Cheng Jinyu couldn't help but smile. “Then be cheap again. Send me to the public transportation station, ok?” Cheng Jinyu’s body was genuinely really tired. He blamed it on the man in front of him. Naturally, he wanted to cause a bit of trouble for him.
Gu Bokai narrowed his eyes. “Beg me.”
“Then there's no need.”
“Fine, I’ll beg you! You’re so unreasonable.”
Cheng Jinyu snorted and didn’t respond to him.
He only needed Gu Bokai to send him to the transportation station, but this person directly sent him to the company.
“Want to see your new office?”
It was already past 12. The company generally would start work at 1 PM.
New company, new beginning. Unable to bear it, Cheng Jinyu said, “Ok.”
The building across from them was extremely tall. No less than a couple of tens of floors. Gu Bokai rented out floors 18-19. Each floor was very big, no less than 7-8 offices.
Cheng Jinyu was a bit worried. “It's too big! How many people am I going to recruit? How many departments do I need to divide? I don’t even know what I'm doing at the moment!”
Gu Bokai smiled, “People are forced to come out. If no one presses on you, you’ll never know what your potential is.”
“When I was young my mother's body was unwell. When I didn’t even graduate college yet, my dad took mom everywhere to see doctors. He handed me the company business. At that time, I also didn’t know anything. But look at me now, haven't I done well?”
Cheng Jinyu couldn't help but think that pressure was huge, but the fighting spirit of the man next to him surged over. That kind of fearless spirit, that hotblooded drive itching to stab a hole in the sky, appeared to have been reborn in his blood.
“I want to make clothes. This is the only thing I understand.”
“Ok!” Gu Bokai said, “You definitely need to start from what you know best. Don’t be afraid of anything, don't need to fear anything.”
Cheng Jinyu smiled towards the Gu Bokai in front of him. “En.”
Gu Bokai ‘s entire heart felt elated. No wonder during those years King You of Zhou fired those beacons(1). When beautiful people smile, it was capable of causing the downfall of a city.
Cheng Jinyu walked inside the office. His brain was churning quickly. He thought of the structure of Zhuoyue Company, as well as staff configuration.
Cheng Jinyu’s brain was like a painting. He had already begun to design the company’s layout and distribution.
Gu Bokai had probably guessed what he was thinking. He stood distantly by the window, looking at the serious person it was reflecting. This was the Cheng Jinyu from those days. This is supposed to be the appearance of Cheng Jinyu.
When Cheng Jinyu arrived at the company, it was already 2PM.
Yang Zijian directly threw himself at Cheng Jinyu. “Where did you go yesterday? How come you didn’t come back to the company? You also didn’t come this morning.”
Cheng Jinyu draged Yang Zijian to the side. “There's something I need to tell you.”
“What?”
“Aiya, isn’t this our Biao Ge.” Zhang Hongyu was smiling, walking over. Behind him was Chen Yuze and Jiang Zihan.
“You still came to work! Didn’t you marry a rich old man? Look at the name brand clothing on you. Do you still need to come to work?”
At this time everyone in the sales department was still here. They had just finished eating lunch and most of them did not go out. Zhang Hongyu was very loud. Practically everyone heard him clearly.

- King You of Zhou: There’s a story of this king trying to make his queen, who was ice-cold, smile. So he fired the beacons multiple times to summon all his vassals. When they arrived, he basically said “Oh nevermind” and the confused faces of all his vassals made the queen smile.
Jade: And it happened! Wish there were more details of what happened but thats all that was written ): Also I realize it says he bought 3 floors but they only own floor 18-19 but thats what was written.
In other news, I've finished all the initial translations for the rest of the novel! Which means that I'm going to work a bit more on PPC andddd picking up a dropped novel. I'll make an announcement at some point when I have a few chapters built up.
