This Quick Transmigration Experience Is A Bit Sweet Chapter 27
Chapter 27: I Want A Hug
Assistant Lin was still smiling when he entered the hotel, but then he saw Zong Yuan and Jiang Sheng’yan sitting leisurely in the hotel lobby.
His smile paused for a few seconds and then faded, "Boss?"
Jiang Sheng’yan looked at Zong Yuan, and Zong Yuan asked Assistant Lin straightforwardly, "How many days have you been staying here for?"
Assistant Lin was not stupid and he explained with a wry smile, "I have stayed here for thirteen days already." He looked at Jiang Sheng’yan with a sincere expression, "Boss, I have a reason, but I didn't want you to misunderstand so I didn't say it. Now it seems like the misunderstanding is even greater."
Assistant Lin’s mother was from this town, and she had passed away many years ago. Around this time of every year, he would come back here to live for a while. However, the original house he stayed at has already been sold, so he can only live in a hotel. He was also quite surprised to find out that the place Jiang Sheng’yan’s was resting here too. This was too coincidental, so he didn’t tell him about it.
Jiang Sheng’yan felt that it was odd, "How come I didn’t know that you took days off at this time of the year?"
Assistant Lin pushed his glasses up, and it was hard to read the expressions in his eyes. "I have been working under the vice president before, and you only transferred me to this position this year. You must have forgotten."
He really did forget about it. Jiang Sheng’yan glanced at Zong Yuan's expression with a guilty expression, "Okay, there’s nothing else. You can go upstairs."
Assistant Lin asked enthusiastically, "Are you and this gentleman not going to go up to my room for a visit?"
Jiang Sheng’yan declined, "No."
Assistant Lin glanced over to Zong Yuan, "Then I will leave first."
Zong Yuan did not notice his gaze, but Jiang Shengyan did. He gave Assistant Lin a warning glare and directly pulled Zong Yuan out of the place, "F*ck! Has he never seen a man in eight hundred years?"
Zong Yuan asked subconsciously, "Who?"
Jiang Sheng'yan sternly said, "No one, just a stranger."
He still remembered Zong Yuan’s words, “Didn’t we agree to go see a movie?.”
Zong Yuan flicked his forehead with his fingers, "Did you really believed Assistant Lin's words? Dummy."
If he was going to talk, then talk, why did even use his hands? Jiang Sheng'yan was dissatisfied with this, "He is not important."
0046, "..." Then what is important?
President Jiang never took Assistant Lin seriously and he said, "Since you have said it out already, you must be a man of your words. Zong Yuan, are you a man?"
Within a day, Zong Yuan was questioned if he was still capable of doing it and if he was a man. He forced on a fake smile and he directly pulled Jiang Sheng’yan's hand and placed it on his neatly formed abdominal muscles that were nice to touch. Then he asked him, "Am I a man?"
The thin layer of clothing was barely existent and he could feel that the skin under his hand was warm. Jiang Shengyan quickly swept his fingers up and down a few times, and spoke against the words he had in his heart, "You’re a man just because you have abs?"
Men can't be questioned like this. There were still people walking around. Zong Yuan lowered his head down, and he could feel an itch in his mouth, "Boss Jiang, you should be glad that this is not in the village."
Jiang Shengyan's heart thumped loudly, and he asked, "What would be done if we were in the village?"
The corner of his eyes were raised in a provoking and tempting manner. Zong Yuan's breathing was uneven, and he cursed a swear word.
An old grandpa with a cane that was passing by glanced at Zong Yuan and then specifically looked at his crotch area. He shook his head and exclaimed, "It's a hot day, it’s easy for youngsters to get turned on."
Jiang Sheng’yan laughed.
Zong Yuan dragged Jiang Sheng’yan to another road with a dark expression on his face, "Didn’t you want to watch a movie?"
Jiang Shengyan smirked, "Youngster, don't be too anxious."
He needs to be taught a lesson.
During the time when Jiang Sheng’yan went to buy tickets, Zong Yuan found a few gangsters in front of the cinema and gave them a sum of money, "It's the same person as before. Help me see if he meets other people." Zong Yuan specifically reminded them, "Especially fat middle-aged women or short middle-aged men."
He still has a stack in his hand, which was all provided by Boss Jiang. "After you finish this, there will be more rewards based on the info you give me, do a good job ."
This task was not difficult and they looked at the amount of money, "Okay, set a date!"
Jiang Sheng’yan was this old already but he has never been to the movies with just another person. He got popcorn and coke. While the sales clerk was still envying which girl was so lucky to have such a handsome, rich and loving boyfriend, she saw Zong Yuan standing next to this handsome guy.
Another handsome guy of a different type.
Really pleasant to the eyes.
Zong Yuan looked at the pile of things in his arms and was surprised, "You like to eat popcorn?"
Not only did he buy food, but Boss Jiang also bought two last row tickets for seats that were in the corner. He also chose an unpopular movie; the type where there will be not many people in the audience. When he was buying the tickets, the ticket seller kept confirming with him because he feared that he was buying the wrong one.
Jiang Sheng’yan shoved the popcorn into Zong Yuan's hand, "For you."
There was five minutes until the showtime printed on the ticket. Zong Xiao’mo just came out from finishing watching a movie and she happened to see her brother and Jiang Shengyan who were queuing to check the ticket. She ran over while feeling surprised, "Brother! Boss Jiang! What a coincidence!"
Zong Yuan smiled, "Yeah, what a coincidence."
Jiang Sheng’yan's face had stiffened already. He didn’t know if should laugh or not, "Coincidence…."
Zong Xiao’mo leaned in closer, "Which movie are you going to watch?"
Jiang Sheng’yan suddenly had a bad premonition.
Surely enough, Zong Xiao’mo said, "I haven't seen this one yet. I'll go buy a ticket and let's watch it together."
Jiang Sheng’yan felt too tired in his heart to speak.
Zong Yuan shoved the popcorn to Zong Xiaomo, with a gentle voice, especially convincing, "Go watch some other one. The movie Boss Jiang and I are watching is out of tickets already."
Zong Xiao’mo took it and felt that it was a pity, "Okay then, I didn't expect this movie to be this popular."
From the corner of his eyes, Zong Yuan caught a glimpse of Jiang Sheng’yan who had regained his spirits, and the corners of Zong Yuan’s mouth curved up into a smile.
Mentally retarded president.
After A’qiang’s dad exchanged his ox, he went to buy a lot of things. By the time he walked out of the town, Zong Yuan and the others were already waiting there. Aq’iang’s dad looked at Jiang Sheng’yan's expression and wondered, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Shengyan still had a red mark on his face, and the expression on his face was nasty while an irritable aura was flowing out of him.
Zong Yuan held back his smile, "He fell asleep while watching the movie, so he’s feeling pity over the loss."
A’qiang's dad nodded understandingly, "That's really a pity then, the ticket was wasted."
Jiang Sheng’yan was unhappy, and wanted to punch himself a few times.
The money spent on the ticket was trivial, but it was a pity that after thinking about so much and doing so much, in the end, it was him who was the disappointing one. He just slept for two and a half hours straight. With such a good environment and atmosphere, what were you doing.Jiang Sheng’yan?
The cart was moving slowly. A’qiang’s dad was chatting with Zong Xiao’mo while Jiang Sheng’yan stayed silent the entire time. Zong Yuan spoke into his ear, "Boss Jiang looked really cute while sleeping so I didn’t watch the movie and instead, I watched you for two hours and a half."
Jiang Sheng’yan's ears gradually turned red, "It's so dark in there, what can you even see?"
0046 quickly flipped through “The Encyclopedia of Love Lines”, "Zong Yuan, this sentence, this sentence!"
Zong Yuan reluctantly believed 0046 for once, "Because you are a ray of light, you are brighter than the sun, you are brighter than the moon, and you are brighter than the stars."
Jiang Shengyan, ".."
Zong Yuan, "..."
Jiang Sheng’yan abruptly shuddered, and goose bumps formed over his entire body. That little bit of shyness that he had dissipated away cleanly, "I now believe that you’ve never been in a love relationship before."
As soon as Zong Xiao’mo turned her head, she saw her brother and Jiang Shengyan with their heads close together while muttering something to each other, "Brother, what are you talking about? What about love?"
A’qiang's dad joked, "A’Yuan is not young anymore, he has to get married and have kids!"
Jiang Shengyan scoffed, "Get married and have kids."
When they got home, Chen Hongmei had already returned. She was laying on a wooden mat with an ugly expression. Zong Yuan asked "Mom, what's wrong?"
There were still a few scratches on Chen Hong’mei's hands, which seemed to have been scratched by nails. Zong Yuan saw it and spoke with a dark face, "Mom, what's the matter?"
Chen Hong’mei suppressed her emotions, "Mom is okay, don't worry."
She changed the subject, "Come here, let mom see what you bought."
Zong Xiao’mo said, "Mom, tell us, my brother is here with us."
Chen Hong’mei sighed, with a tired expression, "I met your Fourth Uncle Zhang when I came back this afternoon. He asked me to borrow money. I didn't give it. Nothing much happened, it was just a quarrel."
She had planted a lot of land and worked a lot before so she was not afraid of Fourth Uncle Zhang. She was almost pushed into the river by him during the dispute even though she was known to be a ‘land duck1’. Just this alone was enough to make people feel disgusted for a long time, but it was not appropriate to tell her children this. Chen Hong’mei felt uncomfortable in her heart, and she told Zong Xiao’mo, "Don't go near his house. Run away when you see him, and call out to your brother if there’s anything wrong."
Zong Xiao’mo nodded, "Mom, I know."
She wanted to make Chen Hongmei happy, and took out an item out from one of the bags on the ground, "Mom, look, I bought you clothing, it’s really pretty. Boss Jiang paid for it!"
Chen Hong’mei looked at Jiang Sheng’yan in a panic, "Aiya, how could you make Boss Jiang pay? Aiya, seriously, how could you be so senseless?
"It's okay," Jiang Sheng’yan explained, "I insisted on paying."
"Don't keep calling me ‘Boss Jiang Boss Jiang’, just call me Sheng’yan. And also you, didn't I tell you to call me ‘brother’?"
This was his first time in his life where he tried to get close to others and the feeling was not bad.
Zong Xiao’mo smiled embarrassedly, "I will call you that next time we meet."
Chen Hongmei looked at her with a smile, then she looked at Jiang Shengyan, and a thought formed in her heart, could it be that Jiang Sheng’yan likes my daughter?
I need to observe more closely.
Zong Yuan's voice carried a bit of laughter, "Sheng’yan? A’Yan?"
His heart softened when he was called like this, and Jiang Shengyan muttered, "My name sounds quite nice."
Chen Hong’mei was surrounded by a few children, and the anger she had earlier had naturally disappeared. She smiled and said, "Okay, Sheng’yan, hahaha, thank you for the clothes you bought for auntie. How about you stay for dinner tonight? It’s perfect that A’YuanI bought a lot of meat. Auntie will cook some meat dishes for you!"
Jiang Sheng’yan raised his eyebrows, "Then I will look forward to auntie's cooking."
At Jiang Sheng’yan’s house, Aunt Lin placed the food in the refrigerator and locked the door after going out. Uncle Wang was waiting for her on a three-wheeler at the entrance of the village, "Boss Jiang has not returned yet?"
Aunt Lin, "Not yet."
Uncle Wang sighed and didn’t say anything else.
He was full from eating and drinking, and there was a person specifically there to send him home. Jiang Sheng’yan stood in front of his house, and Zong Yuan was looking at him face to face, "Go in."
Jiang Sheng’yan hesitated for a few seconds, but still said the words he kept in his heart, "Can you hug me?"
Shameful.
"Clingy," Zong Yuan opened his arms with a low smile, "Come, hug."
How could there be a man like this?
Jiang Sheng’yan was held in Zong Yuan’s arms while he thought of that as he accepted his fate.
Whether it was a strand of hair or the light that shone on his face, they all poke its way into his heart.
And all he could do was to hold his heart out in his hands and give in completely.
Translator’s Notes
- Land duck 旱鸭子
This refers to a duck that has been grown on the land, and thus does not know how to swim. I kept the literal translation because I thought that it was funny, and I couldn’t find an equally amusing English equivalent.
