Chapter - 23 Gu ...are You Gay..bi...shameless... Or All Three

*****

The next morning, Gu Qing Pei was carrying a computer bag downstairs, when he saw Yuan Yang waiting for him downstairs. It was a cold day and Yuan Yang didn't sit inside the car, but was standing by the door, playing with the phone.????

Gu Qing Pei seeing Yuan Yang, he put on an ambiguous smile. Yuan Yang looked up and said, "Gu Zong ah, well you don't seem to be in good health. Is there any problem?"

Gu Qing Pei chuckled, "I'm very good, and you seem to have an unhealthy habit of excessive phone use."????

Yuan Yang lamented with a fake pout, "Oh, just playing some games. As you know, I have no money to pay for calls, the phone is only useful in playing games. Gu must be feeling very happy hearing this sort of news early in the morning."????

Gu Qing Pei smiled and pulled open the car door, "Rest assured, you have been at the company for a month, and wages will be paid tomorrow. After the wages, buy two thick coats for winter. Cold winds can damage Yuan Yang already demented mind."????

Yuan Yang put the phone into his pocket and rubbed his hands, "Maybe it's a bit cold, but I don't mind it. After receiving the salary, I would like to give it to Gu General, for him buy that anti-inflammatory to rub in his ass. What was its name again? Do you still remember the name of the ointment?"????

Gu Qing Pei adjusted his glasses, his mood hidden behind the lens, "It's rare for you to have such a kind heart. I will go home later and check its name."

The atmosphere in the car can be described as the rattling of cages by angry, wild African dogs, the two of them using snide comments to ridicule each other and each refusing back down.

About nine o'clock after the company had finished breakfast, Zhang Xia led a woman in her thirties into the President's office. She quite a woman with a gentle temperament but looked smart and capable.

Before entering the President's office, one had to cross through the secretary's office. Yuan Yang sat at his desk and stared at them both as they crossed him. He was curious about the new woman.

Zhang Xia explained, "Gu General.....a guest."

Yuan Yang began to wonder if this was the woman on the phone.

Zhang Xia knocked once on the door and entered the office. Gu Qing Pei took one look at them and went from normal to smiling hugely. He joked in a very enthusiastic mood, "Oh my big beautiful girl."

The woman smiled at him sheepishly, "I'm sorry, I should have been here at half past eight. The road was jammed for a while."

"Aah, its nothing, come in, please come in." He glanced at Yuan Yang and smirked, "Get ..... tea."????

Yuan Yang glared at him ????....and rose from his seat to get tea.

After nearly slamming the tea tray on the desk, he stuck around to eavesdrop on their conversation. Gu was smiling a lot as he said, "How can you say that? What else should be considered? Both of us worked together for so many years, my feelings for you and trust in your ability is beyond doubt....can you not see it?"

Yuan Yang secretly felt nauseated, the speech was vomit inducing.....and blushing.

The woman covered her pleased smile, "Gu, then I can really count on you."

"You're always welcome to." Gu Qing Pei laughed, "General Jiang always reprimanded me. That's what made me what I am today."

As Yuan Yang came in, she could not help but take a look and thought that the young man looked very handsome.....very nice.

Gu Qing Pei called over to Yuan Yang, "Brings the tea over." He laughed and said to General Liu, "Oh, this is my assistant and driver."

Liu laughed, "Since we have already worked together for so many years, I won't stand on ceremony with you."

Yuan Yang was watching the two of them laughing, and he cursed Gu in his heart. The man was flirting shamelessly, and flattering her beyond belief. Anyone would be embarrassed to listen to this conversation, he thought. It made him very irritated standing there pouring tea for them both.

Gu Qing Pei waved Yuan Yang off, "You leave now and come back with Zhang Xia...... in ten minutes."

Yuan Yang barely controlled the urge to empty the hot tea on the fucker's head.....that four-eyed fucker.

After a while, Zhang Xia went in, and then led Liu General out. She was a new recruitment and Zhang Xia took her around the company to introduce her to the employees.

How could that four-eyed fucker flirt around with her shamelessly knowing she was interested in him? Wasn't he gay? Yuan Yang could literally see sparks between them as they sat there laughing. She was just a silly girl.... A silly little girl who was fascinated by Qing Pei.

The woman turned and looked at Gu Qing Pei twice before she walked away with Zhang Xia. This was a smart, sensible woman that he had recruited but Yuan Yang understood the meaning of that look. It was like she wanted to sleep with Gu Qing Pei as soon as possible.

Yuan Yang heart burned at the scene before him. He clenched his fist, his heart was quite ready to demean Qing Pei's character. He even began to suspect Gu was bisexual, given how the woman on the phone sounded so ambiguous, and he was a divorcée.

He was afraid it was really easy for him to fuck both men and women.

Oh shit! Gu.....you're really shameless!

Yuan Yang sat fuming in his office. He was still for a few moment but suddenly rose and entered Gu's office without knocking.

Gu Qing Pei didn't look up as he was concentrating on watching the stocks. In the company, there was only one asshole who dared not to knock but usually entered into his office. It could be none other than Yuan Yang.

Yuan Yang sat on the comfortable leather sofa with grandpa like attitude. "Who was that woman who was just in here?"

Gu Qing Pei didn't look him in the eye as he replied, "She is the newly hired personal director."

Yuan Yang glared at him without responding.

Gu Qing Pei glanced at him, "She has a lot of human resources management experience but she is very expensive."

"Expensive? Then why hire her?"

Gu Qing Pei's mouth pulled at his sides, "Yuan Yang, this work we do is painstaking and in order to make you a successful heir who can manage the company without making it collapse, I need to desperately hire new talent. You should continue to maintain this state, it's good. Since you don't understand anything, you will live happier."

Yuan Yang felt the condescending tone in Gu Qing Pei's words and his eyebrows rose. He said roughly, "Don't you fucking think low of me, I had no interest in this career, and now he is forcing me. The fact that I didn't walk away should be good enough."

Gu Qing Pei looked at him and went "Oh". He also didn't intend to reply.

Yuan Yang couldn't endure it anymore and blurted, "That day the one who called you...what it this woman?"

Gu Qing Pei neither looked at him nor acknowledged him, but took out the calculator and began doing silly maths, and then pointed the pen at a notebook, thinking about nothing.

Yuan Yang got up, moved across the floor and thumped his fists on the desk roughly, "Yes or no?"

Gu Qing Pei laughed, "Who are you? The police?"

Yuan Yang looked like he wanted to strangle him to death.

Gu Qing Pei looked at the table, "Oh, it's lunch time."

He picked up the phone dialled someone, "Oh, Ms. Liu, Shall we go out for lunch? It's my treat. I'm bored of the canteen food here......Right nearby. Well, let's meet downstairs, hey, we'll take your car, OK, see you downstairs in ten."

He hung up and pocketed the phone, rose and stepped out of the room like Yuan Yang didn't exist. He walked on past him and went away.????

Yuan Yang's hammered the table twice, the expression on his face would have scared anyone.????

Two hours later, Gu Qing Pei and General Liu returned with smiles on their faces. Yuan Yang heard Gu speaking nonsense all the way from when they entered the floor. "Speaking with Liu is really a pleasure. Next time we should go out for coffee. There is a great coffee shop near my house, I've heard it's very good."

Gu Qing Pei left her near the door and walked past Yuan Yang who was sitting on the couch outside his office. Both his legs were on the coffee table and he looked up at Gu with a wanton look on his face.

Gu Qing Pei ignored him. On a normal day, it was difficult for Gu to guess what the brat was thinking in that crazy mind of his. Now, he was sitting guard at the entrance like a mastiff dog. Gu Qing Pei didn't dare provoke him lest he bite him in return.

Inside his office, he took off his jacket and went to the lunch break room, intending to take a sleeping break.

He had just put on his pyjamas and was getting ready to lie down when Yuan Yang interrupted him.

As the Gu Qing Pei didn't lock the door, he could only helplessly watch Yuan Yang swagger in. Yuan Yang walked near Gu Qing Pei, and out of instinct Gu became alert. There was no guessing how this mastiff dog would act so he put his guard up and watched him intently.

"What are you doing?" he asked roughly.

Yuan Yang ripped off his tie and undressed, "I am here to sleep."

"I didn't give you permission to sleep here."

"Well....I didn't ask you." Yuan Yang threw his clothes aside and climbed in beside Gu.

Gu Qing Pei subconsciously backed away. The memory of that hard body over his was not something he could erase from his brain. There was a lingering fear about Yuan Yang losing his cool and switching to beast mode. It was impossible for him to relax as long as the brat was anywhere near him.

The most important part was, that night was the first time that he had been a bottom or rather, an extremely reluctant bottom who was unable to act against it even though he knew Yuan Yang's mentality and intention was far from murder.

His body was brutalised and it was an unforgettable experience. Even the anger and humiliation was fresh in his heart. But he wasn't a coward who would blabber all these fears to the brat. So he quashed his subconscious fear and forced himself to stay put. He was not about to run out crying just because the brat shared his bed now.

Yuan Yang seemed to notice his slight withdrawal and ridiculed him, "Gu, are you scared?"

Gu Qing Pei calmly stated, "If you came in to take a nap, then shut up and nap or else get out." He then covered himself with the, closed his eyes and stopped looking at Yuan Yang.

He always felt that night, Yuan Yang acted that way because he was extremely angry. Surely the brat wasn't gay and neither would be willingly touch Gu, especially right in the company. It must have been the retaliatory mood that made him act that way towards Gu.

Yuan Yang was homophobic before and his homophobic attitude hasn't changed. No straight man can change so fast. The only justifiable explanation was his intention to humiliate Gu.

Moreover, he was now clear-headed and not drugged. Hence to some degree he was capable of defending himself but was it really enough to stop Yuan Yang?

Sure enough, Gu even with his eyes closed, listened vigilantly with his ears. After the brat got into the bed, he lay down beside Gu without making any other noise.
