Chapter 52 - Eternal Happiness

UNEDITED

Gu Bokai looked at Chen Xiuyuan across from him. He heard a little bit about this person’s situation. But Chen Xiuyuan was like a mother in law as he stared at him, it actually made Gu Bokai unable to adapt.

Gu Bokai coughed ,”Uncle, Cheng Jinyu and I truly love each other. I will definitely treat him very well.”

“Why?” Chen Xiuyuan asked.

Gu Bokai smiled, “Love is like this sometimes, who can say they understand?”

“But you are not an ordinary person. You only need to wave your hand and who knows how many people would throw themselves at you. Why Cheng Jinyu?” I don’t think he is so good.”

Gu Bokai turned his head to look at Cheng Jinyu standing at the side. He knew that even if right now both of their feelings were very good, Cheng Jinyu still had some apprehensions.

Gu Bokai stared at Cheng Jinyu as he answered, “Don’t tell me you don’t remember me at all?”

Cheng Jinyu thought to himself. He met this person before? Did they meet before? How come he had no impression of it at all?

Gu Bokai bitterly laughed. “You really forgot all about me, but at that time your one word made me sentence myself to death. We knew each other before, when you went to middle school I knew you.”

When his foster mother’s body continued to not be good, Cheng Jinyu especially treasured the chance to go to school. He only needed to go to school and would be extremely happy.

During those times when Cheng Jinyu could go to school, almost all of his energy was thrown into taking care of his foster mother, doing housework, raising his younger siblings, as well as using his heart and soul to study. Regarding outside things, he really didn't have many recollections. So much that as he was currently remembering those days, he didn't even know who his desk mate was or which teacher he had.

Gu Bokai looked at his puzzled face then knew that he really forgot who he was.

Gu Bokai also didn’t mind. After all, it had already been many years.

Gu Bokai sunk back into the memories of that time. When he went to high school there was a middle school next door.

The two schools only had one wall that separated it and Gu Bokai’s classroom was on the third floor. Through the window, he could distantly see the campus of the middle school.

At that time he paid attention to Cheng Jinyu, the studious and very earnest child.

Gu Bokai at the time went to school everyday and watched Cheng Jinyu go through his daily life.

Slowly this admiration slowly changed until Gu Bokai wanted to possess this person. He wanted to be together with him and it was the first time he had that kind of indescribable urge.

When Cheng Jinyu entered high school, Gu Bokai blocked him at his school.

Gu Bokai at the time was also not too big. This youngster was full of drive and confessed in the middle of the street.

Only he didn’t think, all of his emotions did not affect Cheng Jinyu. He immediately rejected him and also responded with a phrase, ‘men liking men is very disgusting.’

This phrase was like a knife plunging into young Gu Bokai’s heart. Even if no one bumped into the knife, he would still feel it and rivers of blood would flow.

Gu Bokai spoke up to here with a bitter smile. “Know now? During that moment I felt that my entire life was dull, gloomy, so much that I thought I was sick. It was the first time I had taken such a blow.”

Gu Bokai recalled that day, both hands were still tightly clutching onto the table. At that time he was 17-18 years old.

His emotions suffered a defeat and he was already in pain. Then the person that he liked also told him he was disgusting, made him unable to recover. From then on he didn’t dare to touch the feelings between men.

Gu Bokai continued, “At the time I told myself that in this lifetime I wouldn’t meet you again. Except who would have thought, just strolling around I actually saw you at Chen House being a servant! In fact, I hated you quite a bit and also wanted to see laughed at. But the most repulsive thing was, I drummed up the courage to appear in front of you and you actually didn’t even recognize me!”

Cheng Jinyu at this time opened his mouth to speak, “So you tried to oppose me in every way, purposely made things difficult for me?”

“Yes, I wanted you to remember. Since you don’t remember my love, I wanted you to remember me with hate. But I didn’t think that in the end we would get married, very good, very good.” He said up to here and his mouth curled into a smile, revealed spotless white teeth, like he was a child.

Chen Xiuyuan saw this kind of Gu Bokai, knew that he was genuine and sincere. Cheng Jinyu’s expression also told him that he had no misgivings about this person.

Chen Xiuyuan only felt that he just gained a treasure only for someone to take it away. In the end he was a bit frustrated.

“Gu Bokai, you cannot be together like this. You must openly marry Cheng Jinyu into your household.”

“I know, I also prepared to do something like that. Don’t worry it’s already been planned. I will immediately prepare for our wedding.”

Regarding the wedding ceremony, Gu Bokai had already started planning for it. Only Cheng Jinyu did not agree and kept dragging it out. This thing was dragged more and more until now.

Chen Xiuyuan, “Good, good, when you guys get married I'll send over a big gift.”

Gu Bokai smiled, “Is it the project from today?”

Chen Xiuyuan, “Having you accompany Cheng Jinyu, even without this project he will still do very well. Of course, Cheng Jinyu by himself is also very outstanding, he will definitely become better and better.”

Cheng Jinyu and Gu Bokai’s marriage immediately spread in the business circle. Almost everyone was asking about it. What kind of person was this man named Cheng Jinyu, actually able to receive this big person named Gu Bokai. The main point was that the two people were already married and Cheng Jinyu could stand by this person’s side and not be subdued to death.

The two people’s wedding date was already booked. It was on the 15th of next month. Many people from the business world were pulling at their scalp, wishing they could attend.

Because of this popularity, each and every purchase order for Cheng Jinyu’s company came looking at their door. In an instant the company was in full swing.

Tan Liyun became incredibly skinny. She looked at the lawyer in front of her and coldly said, “How come he didn’t come?”

Lawyer Zhang, “Chief Chen has already entrusted us with everything. Madam, let’s begin.”

Tan Liyun, “I’m not getting divorced, not even if I die.”

Lawyer Zhang apparently already knew it would be like this. He said, “Ok, Then we’ll see a judge. Only doing it like this would be even more unfavorable to madam. The condition that Chief Chen gave madam would also not be there anymore. Madam your losses will be even greater.”

“Not getting divorced, I will not get a divorce, not even if i die!” Tan Liyun repeated, her voice was almost deranged.

Lawyer Zhang, “Madam, I am urging you for your own good. Even if you keep insisting on no divorce it won’t do anything. A marriage involves two people. Chief Chen has already decided to divorce, this marriage will definitely be divorced.”

“I’ll advise you, for your own benefit to agree to Chief Chen’s current condition. Don’t lose your life and property. In addition, if you bring it to court, both party's reputation will decrease. Chief Chen promised you that for the sake of saving your face, he will not make your divorce public. But as soon as you go to court, it would be known by everyone.”

Tan Liyun loved being proud in front of others the most! These past few years, Chen Xiuyuan did not treat her that well, but in front of everyone she showed off the loving affection between husband and wife. Her happiness from her livelihood was incomparable.

If she filed a lawsuit against the divorce with Chen Xiuyuan, then the peaceful happy appearance built over many years would shatter. Her image in front of the many ladies and madams would topple.

Tan Liyun felt she was at a tight spot, her entire body felt trapped.

Not to mention the news of Cheng Jinyu’s earth shattering marriage was everywhere, even the television news would broadcast it everywhere about their marriage.

Even paparazzi were sneakily taking his pictures. The Cheng Jinyu in the pictures was high spirited, handsome and confident.

Tan Liyun’s rage could only be suppressed in her heart. This person that she cultivated into a dog, in only a bit over a year had rebirthed, and made herself covered in dirt and grime.

It was all because of him, he shouldn’t exist in this world. She should have killed him.

Thinking up to here Tan Liyun suddenly extremely regretted it. Why did she torment him for ten years?  Why was she trying to make progress? She should have just played with him until he died. Now this person found a way out of his predicament and she was the one left with a plight. Tan Liyun did not think that Cheng Jinyu could one day stand in front of her face showing off his might and saying, serves you right!

Tan Liyun simply did not think of this scene at all. Her entire body began to tremble, hating that she could not stab Cheng Jinyu full of holes.

When Tan Liyun felt that it was excruciating, her son Chen Yuze came back. Chen Yuze was also extremely thin and haggard, eye sockets were very deep, skin was waxy, like he had no soul.

Tan Liyun quickly came back to herself and walked over. “Son, son, what happened? Darling, darling.”

Chen Yuze ruthlessly pushed her away. “It's all because of you, why did you force Cheng Jinyu and Gu Bokai to get married? Why? Why did their fake drama turn real? What am I supposed to do? I loved Gu Bokai all these years, what are you having me do?”

Chen Yuze really could not understand why Cheng Jinyu and Gu Bokai were together, so he searched into all of their past relations and actually found it. It was because his mother forced Cheng Jinyu to marry Gu Bokai.

This result made Chen Yuze incomparably angry. He grasped tightly onto his mother’s hand. “Why did you do it like this? Why are you trying to harm me? You don’t know how much I love Gu Bokai? Do you know how many years I’ve waited for him?”

Chen Yuze ruthlessly pushed his mother. “Forget it, forget it. This is my fate, everything was stolen by him, I don’t have anything. He's retaliating against me, he's retaliating against me!” He continued to mumble this, his entire body seemed spiritless.

Tan Liyun once again tightly clenched her fists, itching to draw blood.

These two days Cheng Jinyu was very busy with work. All of the orders were assembled into a pile. Although all of these people rushing over were mostly from Gu Bokai, but they had reached out a hand with a smiling expression. The people were respectful, carrying a smiling expression and sincerity brought money over, Cheng Jinyu couldn’t just not make the connections.

Lots of projects, lots of work. Naturally it was very busy but this kind of activity made him feel very at ease. Especially after he and Gu Bokai were honest with each other, Cheng Jinyu’s heart was completely stable.

Cheng Jinyu’s car had already been switched out. It really was unfortunate he could not enjoy that extremely flashy Lamborghini. Currently it was switched out for a black car.

Cheng Jinyu walked to his car. At this moment he suddenly heard the sound of a car. Immediately afterward there was a car rushing straight at him! Cheng Jinyu stared blankly.From head to toe he was unable to move. The car was very fast and the distance was too close to him, simply did not give him time to react.

At this time, another car immediately dashed over. It crashed into the car that was heading for Cheng Jinyu.

The first car ferociously crashed into a stone pillar because of the second car. There was only the sound of a woman screeching, followed closely but smashing of glass as it clattered onto the ground.

Cheng Jinyu at this moment finally reacted. He had clearly seen that the second car was Gu Bokai’s Land Rover.

Cheng Jinyu felt that all the blood in his body freeze. He was trembling all over as he practically crawled over. Anxiously he opened the car door and from his mouth yelled for the people around. “Quick call an ambulance, Call an ambulance, Help! Help!”

Gu Bokai only hit his head a bit. He didn’t really have any problems as he laid on the hospital bed lethargically.

Tan Liyun was hit very seriously. Almost nothing remained the same. She was in a coma and did not wake up.

Chen Xiuyuan patted Cheng Jinyu’s hand and said, “Don’t worry, he won’t have any problems. The doctor already said that he will definitely wake up.”

Cheng Jinyu nodded his head. “I know.” He extended his hand to grab onto Gu Bokai’s hand then said, “Wait for you to wake up and we’ll get married, you must wake up.”

Chen Xiuyuan patted Cheng Jinyu’s shoulder. “I’ll go buy some food to eat, don’t be too worried.”

Chen Xiuyuan walked out from the ward. When he turned the corner, he happened to see Chen Yuze coming.

Chen Yuze’s complexion was ashen, “My mom is almost dead, you won’t even see her once last time?”

Chen Xiuyuan coldly said, “Not seeing.”

“You... That is your wife?”

“We are getting divorced.”

“But you haven’t divorced yet?”

“This kind of woman was never suited to be my wife.”

Chen Yuze clenched both of his hands into fists. “Chen Xiuyuan, You are not my father. From now on, us father and son will break all ties.”

Chen Yuze said this then turned his head and walked over. Chen Xiuyuan looked at the distant Chen Yuze and his heart faintly shook.

Chen Xiuyuan sighed then continued to walk forward. He needed to buy some food for Cheng Jinyu to eat.

Gu Bokai really did not have any big issues. He was out for two days before finally waking up. But Tan Liyun’s condition was extremely serious. She had sunk into an everlasting coma, the doctor said that there was a possibility she would not wake up.

Cheng Jinyu gripped Gu Bokai’s hand. “Wait for you to get better, we’ll get married. This time I definitely won’t change my mind. I want to be  your wife, be your wife for a lifetime.”

Gu Bokai smiled and embraced Cheng Jinyu said, “Very good. I earned this. If I knew this earlier I would have gotten hit earlier. Perhaps I would have brought a wife home sooner.”

Cheng Jie pushed Cheng Yan standing by the front door. “Don’t you want to apologize to big brother? Still not hurrying?”

Cheng Yan with a small voice said, “I don’t dare. Big brother will definitely scold me.”

“You deserve it! Still wanted to become some celebrity, you think you can? Fortunately big brother could come save you, otherwise who knows what would have happened. Tan Liyun that bad woman, wanted to murder big brother.”

Cheng Yan lowered her head and softly said, “Who says I can’t be a celebrity.”

Cheng Jie panting with rage said, “Enough, enough, stop dreaming. Hurry and go apologize to big brother.”

Mama Gu laughed out loud. “We have two happy events in the family. Should strive for us to hold a little darling after the new years.”

Cheng Jinyu's face was gloomy. Gu Bokai patted him then said, “Mom, don’t talk nonsense. Cheng Jinyu and I are both men, how can we give birth to a child? But we can adopt one. You can pick. If they enter your eyes then we’ll carry a baby home.”

Mama Gu mischievously laughed, “You can give birth, Cheng Jinyu can definitely give birth.”

Chen Xiuyuan walked in from the door entrance at this time. He stood at the entrance looking at the Gu family with Cheng Jinyu joyously talking.

Gu Bokai following the subject just now said, “Mom, stop joking around. Jinyu is a man, Jinyu can’t give birth to a child. Stop teasing him. Look, his face is all red.”

Mama Gu smiled and said, “What I said is true, Cheng Jinyu really can give birth.”

“Mom, what exactly do you mean?”

Mama Gu smiled and said, “I never told you before. Jinyu has the blood of the Huayin people, he could give birth to a child. You don’t know? Oh that's right, I never told you. We happen to be at a hospital. Why don’t you take Jinyu for an inspection?”

“I was originally going to wait until you guys conceived a child, then tell you. Didn’t think that you guys never knew.”

Chen Xiuyuan felt that all the blood in his body flowed to his head. He walked inside and pulled on Mama Gu’s hand. “You... what did you say? Jinyu can get pregnant. He is a man, he can get pregnant?”

Mama Gu didn't really like this college classmate. She liked Tan Yiqing, but didn’t like this person because he stole all of Tan Yiqing’s attention.

Mama Gu shook him off, “Of course what I said is true.”

“Men.. men can get pregnant?”

“Yes, I checked it's true.” Mama Gu said.

Chen Xiuyuan grabbed onto Cheng Jinyu’s arm and said, “Cheng Jinyu, let’s go do a DNA test.”

Cheng Jinyu suddenly turned stupid. Don't tell me… he suddenly understood why Tan Liyun tormented him like that. Chen Xiuyuan and his father were not normal friends, they were lovers.

When the results of the DNA test came out, Cheng Jinyu’s heart was shaking. He had wanted to meet his biological mother. He had always wanted to know if there was someone else related to him in this world. But this mother turned into a father, it was a little hard to accept. But if this person really was Chen Xiuyuan, it seemed difficult to accept.

If it is? Cheng Jinyu’s mind was a mess. He was looking forward to the result but was also at a complete loss.

Gu Bokai’s injury was not serious. He needed to rest for a few days and then he’d be fine. Right now he was accompanying Cheng Jinyu for the result. Chen Xiuyuan had already received it, his gaze was rigidly nailing into it.

Chen Xiuyuan’s tears following his face began to slowly drop, one drop after another. Chen Xiuyuan turned his head, across his entire face was grief and indignation but also a longing. He opened his mouth but a long moment didn’t say a single word.

Gu Bokai quickly walked over and took the results from his hands. At this time he slowly walked to the front of Cheng Jinyu and quietly said, “He...he really is your dad.”

Chen Xiuyuan already quickly walked over and embraced Cheng Jinyu. “Child, you are really my child. Your father, why did your father conceal this from me? Why didn’t he tell me? If I knew about you guys, if I know about you guys…”

Chen Xiuyuan continued to repeat this.  It was like he regretted so much his intestines were turning green! If he knew during that time that man was pregnant with his child, no matter what he would not have promised to marry Tan Liyun. Regardless of anything, he would not let go of that mans’ hand.

If he knew that he let go of that man's hand, that person would die early and their son would have this kind of miserable life, he definitely would not be walking the current path. Regret, he really regretted it.

Chen Xiuyuan tightly held onto Cheng Jinyu, hating that he couldn’t bring him into himself. “My son, father has let you down. I’ve let you down, let down your father even more.”

Chen Xiuyuan burst into tears like a child. Cheng Jinyu also held him tightly. This was the only person in the world who was related to him, his most closely related and close person. That kind of warm, that kind of sweet happiness practically filled his entire heart.

Chen Yuze these days had lost a lot of weight. His mother was like a vegetable laying on the hospital bed, his father did not appear again.

Chen Yuze originally had a happy family. He unconsciously walked to this stage, he was not sure what even happened.

Someone gently knocked on the door outside. Chen Yuze turned his head to look and Cheng Jinyu’s face was at the glass.

Cheng Jinyu lightly pushed the door open, in a small voice, “Can I talk with you for a moment?”

“Did you come to mock me? Very good, laugh as you please.” Chen Yuze coldly said. “In any case I don’t have anything anymore, you’ve stolen everything from me.”

“Lets go outside to talk ok?” Cheng Jinyu beseeched him again.

“Your mother needs to rest and also needs quiet. If you have anything to say we can say it outside.”

Chen Yuze coldly smiled, “What can be said? From now on we are enemies. My mother might not be able to wake up anymore. You don’t have to be afraid of disturbing her, Im hoping that when she hears your voice she’ll get so angry she’ll wake up.”

Without a better option Cheng Jinyu walked inside. “Chen Yuze, I know you hate me but I’ve never hated you. I’ve never even blamed you, in fact I still feel grateful to you.”

“These years you really did take care of me, I indeed should thank you. I never wanted to take any of your things, but, sometimes you can’t do anything about it.”

“Gu Bokai’s affairs, I don’t know if you know about it or not, but it was your mother who forced me to marry him at the time. If I didn’t marry Gu Bokai, she wouldn't give my mother the money for her surgery. I was desperate.”

Chen Yuze naturally knew, He also knew what happened afterward. Even if he hated Cheng Jinyu he knew that he was powerless. This person was forced without a choice, he had never seduced Gu Bokai, however their marriage gave them an opportunity to walk together.

Cheng Jinyu continued, “Also your dad, you might be astonished why he would treat me this well. In fact I felt he was very strange, but I also felt that he was very close to me. But yesterday I found out it’s because he is my real father.”

“You... what did you say?” Chen Yuze incredulously said.

Cheng Jinyu’s face revealed a bit of a forced smile, “Perhaps you don’t know, actually I also just found out.”

The story of what happened back then, Cheng Jinyu already heard it clearly from Chen Xiuyuan’s mouth. During those years Cheng Jinyu’s dad and Uncle Chen were originally lovers, but Tan Liyun saw Chen Xiuyuan, and no matter what, wanted to marry him, even pressured him with death.

Tan Yiqing for the purpose of helping his little sister, deliberately became hostile to Chen Xiuyuan so the two broke up and he left  far away from home.

Only Tan Yiqing did not think that he would get pregnant. Although he knew that he had a gene that could make him pregnant, it was only a distant legend. He always thought of it as a myth. Did not think that he would really achieve it with his own body, and that child was Cheng Jinyu.

Cheng Jinyu told him about the things that had happened from those years, then added, “Did you know? Your mom knew that I was Chen Xiuyuan’s son, and also knew that I was her brother’s child, but these years…”

Cheng Jinyu did not continue to talk. Chen Yuze clearly knew of those days.

Cheng Jinyu continued, “You’ve also seen it. A few days ago your mother wanted to kill me. Chen Yuze, I’m not sorry to your mother. My father did not treat your mother badly. I really don’t know why your mother hates us, and why you want to hate me?”

“I was not required to tell you these things, but I just don’t want you to walk the same path as your mother. I hope you will be happy. Chen Yuze, it doesn't matter if we are cousins or brothers, I still saw you as my good friend. I really do genuinely hope you will be fine.”

“You can blame me, you can also hate me. Of course you can ignore me for the rest of your life, but I hope you won’t make things difficult for yourself. Even more, I don't want you to do foolish things, your mother is the best example. I don’t want you to go down her same path.”

Cheng Jinyu finished speaking, turned around and left. This was his last warning to Chen Yuze. Just like he said, he wished Chen Yuze happiness and didn’t wish for Chen Yuze to continue suffering like this. He also didn't want him to turn out like Tan Liyun.

Chen Yuze was digesting this astonishing news. It turned out that Cheng Jinyu was actually his blood related brother! A brother of a different mother. Thinking of it he felt it was extremely funny. Since young he was like a prince, aloof and remote. But Cheng Jinyu was the dog at his side! The same father but their positions were as different as heaven and earth.

But every debt must be returned. Perhaps this was the time he should settle debts.

As before, Tan Liyun gave no indications of waking up. The doctor notified him that she might be like this for the rest of her life.

Chen Yuze shook his head. Perhaps this was his mother’s retribution, merely he no longer wanted to continue to be foolish in this city.

Chen Yuze pulling his suitcase headed towards the airport. He already arranged a caretaker for his mother. He wanted to walk around outside, wanted to see this world.

Jiang Zihan smiled and chased after him. “You’re not even going to tell me when you leave. You don’t have enough friends.”

Chen Yuze saw him dragging a suitcase. “What are you doing?”

“Of course its because anywhere you go I go.”

“You... you’re very busy at the moment. You don't care about your company?”

Jiang Zihan smiled, “Don’t care. Right now all my business has been snatched by Cheng Jinyu. It’s been very peaceful for me. It’s perfect timing to go wander the world with you!”

“Come, come, after we go to America where's the next stop? I know a lot of interesting places, I will definitely let you play happy, enjoy yourself to your heart’s content.”

Chen Yuze looked at Jiang Zihan's face carrying a gentle and soft smiling expression. The sunlight illuminating his face was very warm. Chen Yuze’s mouth also revealed a bit of a smile, “Ok, I’ll go with you.”

Airplane had taken off and Chen Yuze overlooked this city. He saw many helicopters in the air sprinkling countless golden flowers from the sky.

Chen Yuze faintly smiled. That was Cheng Jinyu and Gu Bokai’s wedding, it was very flirtatious.

Jiang Zihan used his body to cover his line of sight. “Don’t look anymore, the two people are known to show off. We are not people who are going to follow their same path. We are low profiled people, our wedding will definitely be traveling the world.”

Chen Yuze pushed him a bit, “Who wants to marry you. Stop showering affection on an uninterested person.”

Jiang Zihan chuckled, “Yes, yes, I really am chasing a beauty!”

Cheng Jinyu raised his head to look up. The clouds were a thousand miles away in the sky, washed away by the blue sky. An airplane was streaking across the sky, leaving behind a white trace.

Gu Bokai pulling on his hand said, “What? What are you looking at?”

Cheng Jinyu turned his head to look at him, smiling he said, “Nothing, only thought that the weather today was very nice.”

Gu Bokai smiled and embraced his shoulder and said, “Of course! I looked at the date. Of course it's a good date, not only that but after today we will have a happy life.”

Cheng Jinyu smiled, nodded his head and said, “En, a good life. From now on it will be a happy life.”
