One Useless Rebirth

Chapter 203: Tomb-Sweeping Day (3)

Di Qiuhe decided to follow up a victory with hot pursuit, he continued, “I’ll listen to Bai.”

There came a gentle breeze, so pleasant.

“I’ll obey Bai.”

The rumble became less fierce.

“Bai will be in charge of all the financial decisions.”

There only came a faint rumble.

“The house and the car, any assets will be under Bai’s name.”

The rumble disappeared.

“I’ll love him, treasure him, take care of him, for my whole life.”

He Bai, who was standing right next to him, now got goose bumps all over, he stared at the sky and he went silent, then he kowtowed too, he decided to join his boyfriend, even though they looked so silly… whatever, he had Di Qiuhe being silly together with, what more could he ask for.

He whispered again in his heart, “Please, mom and dad, send blessings for Di Qiuhe.”

Di Qiuhe cast him a sideways look, he appreciated his puppy joining him even though he found it silly. Di Qiuhe smiled, he held He Bai’s hand and looked at the gravestone, what he was about to say was really emotional, “Before I met Bai, family, to me family is a very negative word. I grew up in a family where my father valued money more than me, my step-mother and my half sister half brother wished they could get rid off me, where I should stay alert all the time to not fall for the traps they set for me…”

The weather became better and better, He Bai’s heart became soft as he listened to Di Qiuhe, he squeezed Di Qiuhe’s hand.

Di Qiuhe continued to say how Bai had changed his life, how Bai created a colorful world for him, how his concept had changed about the word family, it was all because of Bai. To put everything in a nutshell, He Bai was his lucky star, his partner that he would love to spend the rest of his life with.

The breeze was blowing gently, the clouds on the sky were drifting away, He Bai hugged Di Qiuhe and he patted his back as a comfort, “Let go of the past, we have a bright future to live on, those bad people will have their karma, we have so much to live on, don’t be sad, you have me now.”

“Yeah, I have you now.” Di Qiuhe replied and he hugged He Bai back. He was so satisfied seeing the weather turning better, ah, Bai’s parents are sensitive people too, no wonder Bai was so considerate.

How lucky I was to meet Bai and fall in love with Bai!

“Let’s call it a day, hey?”

Di Qiuhe nodded in agreement, he dusted He Bai’s pants and put away the umbrella. Together they walked to the parking lot, while Di Qiuhe halted like he suddenly thought about something, and he turned back to walk to the gravestone.

“What’s going on? You left stuff at the grave stone?” He Bai asked and tried to keep up with Di Qiuhe who was striding.

Di Qiuhe had already organized the flowers in a pretty way and he was putting the umbrella above the gravestone and the flowers when He Bai was back.

He Bai asked in confusion, “What are you doing? The thunderstorm stopped, it’s not gonna rain.”

“Can I please leave this umbrella here?” Di Qiuhe looked at He Bai and smiled innocently like a child, “I’ve never got the chance to send a present to my parents, now that we are here, can I please leave this umbrella here as a present from me? It’s not an ideal present, i promise I will bring a nice present next time, but it’s now monsoon season, this umbrella is at least practical.” With it he turned to look at the gravestone, “Am I right, mom and dad?”

He Bai’s heart was pounding, this Di Qiuhe, his Childish Di looked so handsome.

The sun came out now, a man in suit was bowing to put an umbrella on the graveyard amid the sunlight, such a great view.

Dark suit, black umbrella, gravestone after rain, these were all symbols of depress, yet sunlight was shining, several petals were dancing in the breeze, and the brooch on Di Qiuhe’s collar was reflecting the sunlight, that made a perfect snap.

Click.

Now the umbrella was pushed open on the gravestone, like it knew its mission was to protect He Bai’s parents.

Seeing Di Qiuhe from his camera, He Bai turned around to wipe his eyes and he raised his voice, “Time to go home, Childish Di!” Such a great guy his Childish Di was, he’s better take him home and protect him well.

Di Qiuhe replied obediently, he bowed again at the gravestone, then he walked to his puppy.

The two went to Zeng Peizhong’s hot spring villa after a good night’s sleep, Qin Li and 333 were too occupied to spare any energy on others while they were dealing with Huangdu, and the people in the villa all working for Zeng Peizhong, therefore, the two made quite a pleasant visit, no need to worry hide themselves.

The first thought He Bai had when he finally met Zeng Peizhong was Zeng must be an attractive man when he was young, and the second thought was yeah Zeng Peizhong for sure didn’t have long to live for he looked so sick.

“Thank you so much for coming.” Zeng Peizhong looked so pale and thin, yet now he was smiling at Di Qiuhe and He Bai, “I don’t understand why I had spent the first a few decades of my life hustling here and there, now I finally understand the ultimate way of happiness is letting yourself go, not focus on money making, I wish I could marry a woman and have a healthy baby, that would be a great life.”

Di Qiuhe frowned slightly, he tried to make Zeng Peizhong feel better, “Well, I think you still can make it happen if you listen to the doctor and be a good patient.”

Zeng Peizhong smiled bitterly and shook his head, “I know it well that I don’t deserve that, I’m calculating on my deathbed, I really don’t deserve…”, then he paused to look at He Bai, he said this to He Bai gently, “Mr. He, I asked my kitchen to prepare you some snacks, do you mind taking a look are they ready or not?”

He Bai got the hint, Zeng Peizhong needed some alone time with Di Qiuhe, he nodded in agreement. Then he patted Di Qiuhe on his shoulder as a comfort, and left the room to Di Qiuhe and Zeng Peizhong.

He just saw a little toy which was freshly patched in that room, it must had some sentimental meanings to Zeng Peizhong.
