One Useless Rebirth

Di Qiuhe loved the way he spoke in a tone as if he was quite old yet he’s got a baby face face. His smiled gently and teased him, “Relax, I won’t be treacherous to you. I will love you as always.”

He Bai got a bit terrified by his words and replied defensively, “Did you learn your Chinese from your P.E. teacher? Do you know how to use that word? It was me who has always been taking care of you.”

Di Qiuhe was struck. He then smiled and said while nodding, “Oh yeah, I can feel your love and I am happy.”

His smile…ugh…was quite witchery. He Bai trembled and took off the scarf to throw it onto his face. He then walked behind him and pretended to strangle him.

Di Qiuhe begged for mercy immediately.

While outside the ward, Wang Boyi stopped from knocking the door and turned around to look at the quiet hallway in the hospital, thinking about whether he should go to check his eyes. It’s so weird that he thought master Di and Mr. He made a great couple. They were both male! He should definitely go to get his eyes checked.

An hour later, lawyer Wang returned with the information of the Qin family.

Di Chunhua was having an epilepsy seizure and just got stabilized. But it seemed that she had got some other problems caused by this epilepsy that she needed careful observation. Anyway, she couldn’t leave the hospital at that moment, let alone go abroad.

They only had Qin Li’s confession and she insisted that what happened to Di Bian was just an accident. Also the news from the Di house said that no useful clue was found there by the police and the confessions of the servants were too confusing to use. So the investigation failed with no progress.

Lawyer Wang was quite upset saying that, and the case could only be classified as an accident before Di Bian woke up.

“Thanks for your efforts, lawyer Wang.” Di Qiuhe had expected that already and he called the police because he didn’t want Di Chunhua to be taken away by the Qin family. And now he had achieved his goal, so he didn’t really care about the rest.

“Let’s wait until my father wakes up.” Di Qiuhe pretended to be tired and sad, saying while pressing his forehead, “I heard that there is an expert in Y country who is really good at handling cerebral hemorrhage, so I am going to invite him here to check on my father. I’ve already booked the tickets and I’m about to leave soon. Please forgive me for bothering you, lawyer Wang and deputy chairman Liu, for taking care of Huangdu. You can call me if you have any problem, or you can go to my assistant and our butler Hu Zhao. They will help you handle everything.”

Lawyer Wang was quite shocked and asked hesitantly, “Are you leaving tonight? All of a sudden? The chairman is still in a coma and maybe tomorrow he…”

“I dare not to take any risks on my father’s life.” Di Qiuhe interrupted him with a soft but firm attitude, “I’ve asked the doctor, and my father won’t get better immediately. So he needs to rest and just in case, I better ask the expert in this field for some help. Huangdu can’t live without my father.”

Lawyer Wang stopped speaking and sighed. He looked at him and said more sincerely, “Our chairman will definitely get better soon with your careful consideration.”

Di Qiuhe shook his head with a bitter smile. He looked at Di Bian in the bed worriedly as if he was a devoted son.

He Bai clapped in his heart as an audience. That was indeed a good acting that he could absolutely win his reputation back.

After the midnight snack, Di Qiuhe left the hospital with He Bai with great reluctance as if they didn’t want to go, and then jumped into the car heading to the airport.

“When did you get the tickets?” He Bai asked him right after they hopped on the car. He looked at Di Qiuhe who sat next to him and asked, “Are you really going to Y country? What if the Qin family plays their tricks again? And what about your play in D district?”

Di Qiuhe dragged his collar and gave Wang Boyi a sign to start the engine. He then fell into the seat and said with his eyes closed, “Assistant Wang booked the tickets when he was buying the snacks. And I have three reasons going to Y country this time, first to invite the expert, and second to get my grandpa, the third one is to bring back Di Xiasong who takes the excuse of studying but actually is hiding there. Just relax, the Qin family can’t play any trick as they are monitored by the police and the Di faction. I’ve also asked for some days off from the crew, and Dong Ni is also out of form so director Jiang will let her rest for a few days. I won’t mess it up.”

Seeing how tired he was, He Bai didn’t ask him when he took Fan Da to Y country but said in a low voice, “It’s still a bit far from the airport and it takes around 1 hour to get there by car. So you can just take a nap now and don’t get too tired.”

Di Qiuhe opened his eyes and took a look at him, and he suddenly fell on him. He held him in his arms and buried his face in his shoulders, saying in a vague voice with his eyes closed, “Puppy, thank you for always being there for me.”

He Bai stumbled because of his hug and hugged back after he regained his stability. He said while tapping on his back, “Just sleep. I’d like to be there for you when you don’t mess around with me.”

Di Qiuhe laughed silently and held him tighter. He sighed satisfactorily, “You are so nice, puppy.” How could he not fall in love with such a good man?

“Stop your flattering.” Although He Bai despised him by words, he held him tighter instead. He then said after tapping his back gently, “Just sleep.”

Di Qiuhe rubbed his shoulder and relaxed his body slowly.

It was already quite late. He Bai looked at the outside of the window and became sleepy as well.

“Puppy…”

He struggled to open his eyes and asked, “What?”

There was no response. Di Qiuhe was sleeping sound and it was maybe just his dream word.

He blinked and was blank for a few seconds, and had no choice but to tap him with a smile. He closed his eyes and complained, “Still messing around with me in your dream. Did I owe you something from the last life?”

His mind sank into darkness when those lights he saw outside the car slowly went twisted and turned into beautiful sparkles up in the midnight lighthouse. Yet that far away lighthouse was right at hand this time, and he suddenly saw a slender shadow appearing in front of him, standing on the balcony of a tall building.

That was a familiar shape but he still couldn’t see that face clearly.

He tried to stay closer, but the scene abruptly changed into the hospital ward. An older version of Di Bian was lying on the bed while Qin Li who was still in good shape was yelling at him.

That older Di Bian seemed to be unable to move, and he stared at Qin Li with his red eyes, saying excitedly, “Go to hell with me, Qin Li!”

Qin Li screamed and shouted, “No! You are part of the death of Fan Lianxiu! How can you blame all on me for that!”

The scream of that woman punctured into his ears and exploded as if it went through time and space. He Bai was struck and opened his eyes all of a sudden.

“You wake up?”

Di Qiuhe’s soft voice covered that woman’s scream. He Bai rolled his eyes and realized that he was lying on Di Qiuhe’s laps. And the car had stopped while the driver Wang Boyi disappeared.
