Chapter 42: The Brothers’ Pact

This guy, it seems like if he had more time, he could almost get Zhu Yun out on a date. His skills as a "mature woman killer" are truly impressive. Although I am very unhappy with his behavior, I admire his understanding and control over women’s hearts.

However, when I thought about how he had gone to so much trouble but still hadn’t been able to go on a date with Zhu Yun, while I had already invited that beauty out once and even had her help me masturbate, I felt quite proud. I thought to myself that I had finally won against him this time.

Just as I was about to browse through his other chat history, the door opened, and the tall and handsome Yao Liang walked in carrying a large bag of food and drinks.

"Hey, Mr. Zhou, I’ve got some wine and snacks. Let’s grab a late-night treat. Hey! What are you doing!"

He walked in, saw that I was looking at his computer, and immediately rushed over and pressed the screen.

"I saw it all, okay? You were flirting with a woman, Mr. Yao?" I pretended not to know who the woman was and asked him with a smile.

He put the food on the coffee table and said somewhat awkwardly, "Haha, it’s just normal operation. This woman is not easy to get close to."

"Hehe, I didn’t see it on purpose. You were sitting here, and I wanted to play a game. I just happened to see it. That woman is the university professor you were talking about," I said to him, picking up some snacks.

He looked at me with a slight surprise, then slowly smiled and said, "I was just chatting with her for fun, but she’s very arrogant and always cold. I don’t like to waste time on one person. Recently, things have softened a bit, so I’m seeing if I can step up my efforts."

He took a sip of beer, revealed a hearty laugh, and said, "I heard that woman is single with a child, so she should be very craving men. Either she has a lover to satisfy her, or she’s faking it. I just wanted to see what was going on, haha."

I smiled, ignored his words, picked up my drink and started drinking. I thought to myself that I was probably going to get this beauty. You probably haven’t seen how she got horny when she helped me masturbate. I felt a surge of revenge and a sense of accomplishment.

Yao Liang continued, "Sometimes, it’s not about how long you pursue a woman. Especially with mature women her age, they’re very mature and know what they want. If they’re really interested in me, they’ll probably agree to go on a date with me after a few meetings. After a few dates, we can basically sleep together. If she keeps ignoring me, there’s definitely something wrong with her. I’m pretty sure I know what I’m doing, haha."

When I heard him say this, I thought of my mother and fell into deep thought. Wasn’t my admiration and pursuit of my mother just like what he said?

I didn’t understand what women my mother’s age wanted; I was still too immature.

Yao Liang took another sip of his drink, opened the snack bag, took out some snacks and shared them with me. While eating, he said leisurely, "Alright, alright, let’s not talk about this unexpected topic anymore. What’s wrong with you lately? If you need anything, just let me know."

It was only then that I remembered the purpose of my visit. Looking at his handsome face, I thought of my complicated feelings. I was really burdened with worries. The words were on the tip of my tongue, but I didn’t know whether I should say them or not.

Yao Liang didn’t urge me. He just looked at me and waited for me to speak. After a long while, I finally said, "Yao Liang, you must think what I’m telling you is absurd and ridiculous."

Yao Liang didn’t laugh at me. He calmly said, "It’s okay, Xiao Bin. I’ve done a lot of ridiculous things. I’m used to it."

Looking into his deep, bright eyes, I finally spoke, "I need your help."

"What favor? We’ve been brothers for so many years. Just tell me if it’s within my power," he said.

"I need you to help me win back my mother, Gu Wanxin," I said, enunciating each word clearly and coherently, to the point that even I couldn’t believe it.

"Wh... what!?"

He immediately dropped all the food he was holding, nearly spitting out his beer. He quickly put everything on the table, then leaned forward in utter astonishment and said to me, "Did I hear that right? What did you say?!"

"You heard me right, I need you to help me win over my mother, Gu Wanxin," I repeated, looking at him seriously.

He stared at me in disbelief, and when he realized I wasn’t joking, his expression changed slightly, and his lips twitched a little.

I then told him about my mother’s current relationship with Jiang Weixin, as well as my failed attempt to confess my feelings to my mother and my absurd thoughts. I told all of this to my best friend, and I wondered what his reaction would be.

After I finished speaking, I felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from my heart. I took the beer he hadn’t finished from the table and drank it all in one gulp. The slightly bitter, cold, and fizzy beer rushed into my throat, making me cough incessantly, but it also felt incredibly refreshing.

"Xiaobin, you said your mother didn’t fly into a rage when she heard you say you wanted to pursue her. If you and your mother aren’t crazy, then you are the most open-minded mother and son."

After listening, Yao Liang pondered for a long time before speaking.

He then looked at me and said, "Then why are you telling me all this? You know, Aunt Gu is my favorite person. But I don’t have much of a chance right now. She has a boyfriend, and her son is pursuing her recklessly. And this son wants me to help him? Are you here to make fun of me?"

He said with a slight hint of anger on his face.

I sighed and said, "Of course not, I’m not that bored. There’s actually a reason for this."

"What’s the reason?" he asked, somewhat surprised.

"That person is called Jiang Weixin, you know him, right? He’s the boss of the Jiang Group. I need you to use your family’s background to help me investigate the loopholes in his company, whether he’s operating illegally, basically anything that can bring him down."

I said it word by word.

"A vulnerability? What happened to his company?" Yao Liang asked, looking surprised.

"Nothing much, but I have a gut feeling that he’s not a good person. I suspect he’s involved in some illegal business, and he might even be using my mother’s company. In short, their relationship isn’t entirely based on romantic feelings."

I said.

Yao Liang fell into deep thought after hearing this, and I continued, "Given your dad’s company’s influence, it should be possible for him to get his hands on it."

Yao Liang looked at me and said, "This..."

"To be honest with you, I suspect he’s cheating on Mom. That bastard is dating Mom all the time now, and Mom often stays out all night. I would believe you if you told me they were getting married soon."

I tried to speak calmly.

"Wh... what!?" He almost spat out the beer in his mouth again: "Did I hear that right? What did you say!?"

I sighed, took a sip of beer, and said, "I’ve made myself clear to you, not a word of it is false. This is the situation we’re in now. I don’t trust that old dog at all. I think he’s definitely up to something. Although I don’t understand some of the things going on at his company, I feel that besides his mother being pretty, he’s definitely trying to do something underhanded in business with her. But I have no proof. You like my mother too, right? You can’t just stand by and watch her get into trouble. So, tell me, will you help me or not?"

He stared at me in disbelief as I finished speaking, pondered for a long time, and then said, "So you’re saying that you sense there’s something wrong with him, but you want me to get the evidence and expose that bastard so that your mother can see his true colors and stop her from continuing to be with him, right?"

"Yes," I replied.

Yao Liang slumped onto the soft sofa, stood there for a moment, and then said to me, "With my family’s influence, finding out about that nouveau riche’s flaws wouldn’t be difficult, but..."

"But what?" I asked.

Yao Liang sat up, leaned forward and solemnly said to me, "When I investigate their company, there will inevitably be a lot of risks. My old man has always disapproved of me, and I have to secretly ask his subordinates for help. There are many difficulties to deal with, and you know I’m incorrigible... I have a condition, Xiao Bin, consider it a deal with you."

Looking at his expression, I realized I was already prepared, and said, "What deal? Tell me."

Yao Liang opened another can of beer, a strange smile on his face, and looked at me, saying, "You probably know what I’ve always wanted to do. Since you want me to help you deal with that bastard uncle, then I’ll pursue Aunt Gu myself. Your mother agreed last time, although I didn’t actually do it, but you can’t stop me this time."

I already knew what this lecher was thinking, but I still felt a bit annoyed. Yao Liang could tell what I was thinking just by looking at my expression, and said, "I know you’re probably not happy, but I’ve liked your mom for a long time, as you know. Now that this opportunity is in front of me, how could I possibly let it go? We’re starting on equal footing, and I even let you go first and helped you with your work. You should give me a chance, right?"

Looking at his handsome face, I reluctantly said, "As long as you help me get rid of Jiang Weixin, that’s fine."

Yao Liang jumped up, came to my side, put his arms around my neck, and pressed his face right next to mine, saying, "You promised me this, so you can’t go back on your word!"

I remained calm. Although this was a last resort, it was still better than my mother continuing to entangle with that bastard Jiang Weixin. So I said indifferently, "Of course I won’t regret it, but you also have to keep your promise. And it depends on your performance. My mother is not a woman who is easy to win over. Don’t forget, I’m also pursuing her, and I’m ahead of you."

"Haha, that’s not necessarily true. It depends on who’s pursuing you, right? I’m quite experienced in dealing with mature women, you know that." Yao Liang looked at me with a grin, his eyes slightly lewd.

"Snort."

I sneered, but my eyes inadvertently fell on the bulge in his crotch. I remembered the last time my mother and I accidentally saw him having a passionate encounter with a woman. It was just a fleeting glance, but it shocked me. This guy’s penis looked frighteningly large, probably nearly 20 centimeters long. He was much more well-endowed than me, and I was extremely jealous of that aspect of him that I could never reach.

Seeing my somewhat somber expression, he sniffed sharply and said, "Don’t worry, Xiaobin. We’re good brothers, after all. Your mom is so beautiful. Damn it, no matter what you think, what right does that idiot Jiang Weixin have to be Aunt Gu’s boyfriend? Does he even deserve her?!"

I slammed my hand on the table and yelled, "That’s right, damn it! That stupid middle-aged dog, I’ve disliked him for a long time. I really don’t know what Mom saw in him. Damn it, he’s definitely no good!"

We were like comrades who appreciated each other’s strengths. Yao Liang nodded, let go of me, and took out two new cans of beer. "Come on, finish this glass, and tell me in detail. Let’s plan it out properly!"

Yao Liang laughed and said, "We each opened a bottle, toasted, and drank heartily."

We discussed it in detail. Actually, he did most of the talking. He raised many issues about the company’s operation and also provided some analysis of Jiang Weixin’s company. I knew nothing about these things and could only listen to him blankly while praising him.

"Okay, I understand now. I’ll go to the old man’s company tomorrow. There’s a lot of data there. I’ll also ask a few experts to take a closer look and see what the old dog’s business loopholes are."

Yao Liang said.

"Okay, it’s up to you now," I said.

"Hey bro! Come on, let’s have a few more drinks. You can stay at my place tonight, and we’ll play duos online later, haha!"

Yao Liang hugged me happily and said that he looked like an innocent child, and I really couldn’t do anything about it.
