《Runaway Lover》 Chapter 1 Chapter 1: Encounter Xu Mo¡¯s career is not good. He is the underground lover of the financial president of H City, or because he looks like the white moonlight in the president¡¯s heart, he came to be a stand-in. As a lover, Xu Mo is probably unqualified. He doesn¡¯t know how to please Qin Yiming, the gold master. However, he heard from the maid in the villa that Qin Yiming had already changed many lovers, but he was the only one who stayed the longest. Well! Probably because his face looks like the white moonlight in Qin Yiming¡¯s heart. Once, President Qin went out for a party and came back drunk. He kept grabbing a photo and crying, and hugged Xu Mo and called him (XM) by another man¡¯s name. Xu Mo secretly glanced at the person on the photo. It was an elegant young man wearing glasses with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth. Which is not like a person like himself (XM) who has never read any books. Speaking of which, Xu Mo is still a little sad. He used to have a happy family. Unfortunately, when he was a freshman in high school, his father became addicted to drugs, lost all the money in the family, and finally died of a drug overdose. Xu Mo¡¯s mother couldn¡¯t stand it, so she remarried and went to another city with her new husband. Xu Mo was left as a pitiful person. The key point was that his father still owed a lot of money to others. The IOUs were placed in front of Xu Mo, which made him feel dizzy. Asking the neighbors to buy the house to pay off the debt, Xu Mo dropped out of school and went to work in the economically developed city H with his meager luggage. Xu Mo, who had just arrived in H City, was a little overwhelmed. He was only 17 years old at the time, and many places were unwilling to hire him. Ahl-Shui, the old grandfather amd owner of a dumpling shop, just wanted to hire an apprentice, so he reluctantly accepted Xu Mo. Ah-Shui is getting old, he has no children, and he is a little powerless to work on the dumpling shop by himself. He was satisfied that he had recruited Xu Mo, an apprentice, to work there. Although he didn¡¯t say anything, he actually liked Xu Mo very much in his heart. When he met everyone, he praised Xu Mo for being honest and diligent, which made Xu Mo feel a little embarrassed. Later, Xu Mo worked in the dumpling shop for a few years. After Ah-Shui died, he left the shop to Xu Mo. Apart from making dumplings, Xu Mo, who didn¡¯t know what else he could do, kept running the ¡°Ah-Shui Dumpling Shop¡±. When he met Qin Yiming, it happened to be Xu Mo¡¯s 21st birthday. He originally wanted to close the store earlier and planned to go home to the cake shop next to him to buy himself a small cake to celebrate his birthday. In the end, he met Qin Yiming, a guest. The other party¡¯s facial features were very handsome, tall and tall. He was wearing a silver suit and looked like a business elite. Xu Mo didn¡¯t know that the guest at that time was Qin Yiming, the financial president of H City. As he usually entertained guests, he stepped forward and asked, ¡°May I ask what kind of dumplings do you want? Do you want to take them away or eat them in the store?¡± ¡°Wen¡­qing¡­don¡¯t leave me¡­¡± Qin Yiming was a little drunk. He looked at the person in front of him and mistook him for his own white moonlight. After listening to Qin Yiming¡¯s words, he (XM) smelled a strong smell of alcohol again when he (XM) approached the other party. Xu Mo smiled helplessly. It turned out that the guest was drunk and regarded him as someone else. ¡°Where is your home? Should I call your family to come and pick you up?¡± Seeing that the other party was good looking, Xu Mo politely asked Qin Yiming what to do. ¡°Don¡¯t go back¡­don¡¯t try to leave me¡­¡± Qin Yiming was afraid that Wen Qing in front of him would disappear, so he stepped forward and hugged him tightly to death and was unwilling to let go. Xu Mo was a little stunned for a while, but he was actually hugged by a big man. Forget it, maybe this guest fell out of love¡­ Later, Xu Mo had to take Qin Yiming to his house and let Qin Yiming stay overnight. The rental house is not big, Xu Mo¡¯s house only has one bed, and the two of them slept together at night. The next morning, Qin Yiming woke up first. The consequence of a hangover was a headache. He rubbed his temples and looked around before realizing that this was not his home. He vaguely remembered what happened last night. He seemed to have entered a dumpling shop, and then pestered the owner of the shop¡­ Damn, how could this be? Qin Yiming looked at the unfamiliar young man next to him who had not woken up yet. The other party looked very young and his skin was white, like someone who had not been in the sun for many years. The most important thing is that he looks like Wen Qing when he was high school, especially his profile¡­ After a while, Xu Mo woke up. He first picked up the alarm clock next to him to see that it was exactly seven in the morning. After some time, he had to prepare the ingredients and go to the dumpling shop to open for business. He immediately got up and changed his clothes. He turned to the guest on the bed and said, ¡°Hello! My name is Xu Mo, and I¡¯m the owner of Ah-Shui Dumpling Shop.¡± ¡°Thank you for taking care of me last night. This is my business card. ¡°Qin Yiming took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Xu Mo. Looking at the name and position on the business card, Xu Mo was a little surprised, no matter how much he didn¡¯t care about the outside world, he still read the newspapers often, and often saw Qin Yiming¡¯s name in the newspapers¡­ ¡°Mr. Qin, if you are in a hurry, go ahead! Go get busy! I¡¯m going out later.¡± Xu Mo put away the business card, indicating that he had something to do later. ¡°Xu Mo, can you cook me a bowl of dumplings? I¡¯ll pay.¡± Qin Yiming got dressed and came over to ask the other party. There is money to be made, so Xu Mo is naturally happy. He replied ok, then went out and took out the dumplings that had been prepared in the refrigerator and put them into the pot to cook. Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Qin Yiming glanced at Xu Mo in the kitchen intentionally or unintentionally. The appearance and personality of the young man seemed to suit his taste. There are no women¡¯s items in the narrow house, it seems that there should be no girlfriend, which means that Xu Mo is single, so he can pursue the other party unscrupulously. (T/N: THIS FCKING¡ª!!!) After some time, seeing that the dumplings were cooked, Xu Mo picked up the spoon and fished out the dumplings. ¡°The dumplings are ready.¡± He brought the dumplings to Qin Yiming. Qin Yiming nodded, picked up his chopsticks and took a bite of a dumpling. It tasted pretty good. ¡°How does it taste? Is it delicious?¡± Xu Mo looked at the other eagerly. These are the dumplings he made yesterday, with mushrooms and pork stuffing in them. This is a recipe he has never tested before. He plans to make new dumplings in the future and add this flavored dumpling to the store¡¯s menu. Qin Yiming looked at the other party¡¯s appearance and couldn¡¯t help but praise, ¡°It¡¯s delicious!¡± When Qin Yiming left, he put two hundred yuan on the table in the living room. Xu Mo packed up the bowl and came over to see the money on the table. He rushed out and stopped Qin Yiming, ¡°Mr. Qin, you have given too much money, and dumplings only cost seven yuan a bowl.¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay, I like your house very much. I slept at your house last night, so you can treat it as the accommodation fee.¡± Qin Yiming waved his hand and left. For this matter, Qin Yiming left a generous influence on Xu Mo. He thought they would never see each other again. Unexpectedly, after a few days, Qin Yiming would come to his shop regularly to ask for a bowl of dumplings, and he also expressed his willingness to spend money to go to Xu Mo¡¯s house to learn how to make dumplings. Xu Mo didn¡¯t understand the mind of ??a rich man, so President Qin was free to be President Qin. Chapter 2 Chapter 2: Learning to Make Dumplings Because Qin Yiming would come to the dumpling shop these days, Xu Mo had a habit of leaving him a bowl of dumplings. But President Qin didn¡¯t come today. Xu Mo checked the time and it was already eight o¡¯clock in the evening. He should close the shop. Maybe Mr. Qin won¡¯t come because he has something to do today! Xu Mo didn¡¯t know why he suddenly felt a little lost. Maybe it was because he didn¡¯t have any good friends to talk with. He was always alone. If there was someone who could talk to him, he would be very concerned about it¡­ (T/N:. By concerned, I think they mean how XM would act/react to his friend/conversation partner.) Xu Mo cleaned up (the shop) by himself. Xu Mo closed the shop door and walked home. The house he rented was very close to the shop, and it took only ten minutes to get there. It¡¯s just that Xu Mo didn¡¯t know that there was a car behind him that was deliberately following him at a distance. The owner of that car was Qin Yiming. There were a lot of things to deal with today, so he was a little late today. Xu Mo¡¯s shop has closed. Although it was a bit late today, Qin Yiming still came. On the way from get off work, he went to the flower shop to buy roses, and he regretted it after buying them. Xu Mo is a man, it would be too abrupt if he gave the other flowers. But after buying everything, Qin Yiming had no choice but to pick up the bunch of roses and go upstairs to knock on Xu Mo¡¯s door. Xu Mo opened the door and saw that it was Qin Yiming. He was a little happy, but then he felt that something was wrong with him¡­ It was the first time that he had so many unfamiliar feelings towards a person. ¡°Send you flowers. I bought too many today. It¡¯s a pity to throw them away. I¡¯ll just give them to you.¡± Qin Yiming coughed and said serious nonsense. ¡°Oh, thank you.¡± Xu Mo took the brightly colored roses, found a bottle filled with water, and placed the flowers on the cabinet. When he turned around, he bumped into Qin Yiming¡¯s chest behind him. Xu Mo covered his nose with tears in his eyes, the tip of his nose was slightly red when it was hit, ¡°The nose¡­it hurts¡­¡± ¡°Sorry, I didn¡¯t mean to. The¡­¡± Qin Yiming felt a little guilty in his heart, but his face was still cold. Xu Mo raised his head and glanced at the other party, and felt that if he bumped into a man, he would bump into him! It¡¯s no big deal, he rubbed his nose, then smiled and said, ¡°It¡¯s okay, since I¡¯m here, I¡¯ll teach you how to make dumplings today!¡± The man nodded and followed Xu Mo to the kitchen, he looked around for a while. There is a hint of calculation in the lowered eyes, the kitchen or something¡­ It is really a good place. After mincing the meat stuffing, Xu Mo took out the flour and added water to start kneading the dough. After a while, he rolled the awakened (T/N: ??? when the dough rises maybe? I¡¯m not sure) dough into snow-white dumpling skins. Xu Mo picked up a dumpling skin, used chopsticks to sandwich some meat filling and placed it in the middle of the dumpling skin. His long and slender fingers flexibly pinched delicate folds on the dumpling skin, and in just a few seconds, a shape was formed. Delicate and lovely crescent-shaped dumplings come out. Qin Yiming next to him looked a little surprised. He imitated the other side and wrapped a dumpling, but it was ugly, like a good-looking dumpling that fell to the ground. ¡°You put too much meat stuffing, the dumpling skin won¡¯t be able to wrap it, it will break¡­¡± Xu Mo looked at the other party¡¯s clumsy appearance, took another dumpling skin and put it in Qin Yiming¡¯s hand, and then held the man¡¯s hand. He started teaching the other. I don¡¯t know if it was his own delusion, but Xu Mo felt that the other party was touching his hand on purpose¡­ But when he looked over, Qin Yiming was frowning and earnestly learning to make dumplings by following his movements. Also, how could a handsome man like Qin Yiming want to take advantage of him. After a while, the two finished making dumplings together. Xu Mo turned on the fire, put water in the pot, waited for the water to boil, and put the dumplings in the plate into the pot. He stirred it a few times with a spoon to prevent the dumplings from sticking to the pot. When the dumplings are floating and cooked, take a bowl and take out the dumplings. Then Xu Mo prepared a plate of dumpling dipping sauce with appropriate amounts of minced green onion, mashed garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, and chili oil. ¡°Mr. Qin, you can try it!¡± Xu Mo picked up a dumpling, dipped it in the dipping sauce, and handed it to the man. Qin Yiming chuckled and whispered, the gentleness that could be seen overflowing from his narrow eyes, ¡°You eat first¡­¡± But when Xu Mo just took a bite, the other party grabbed the rest and ate it, ¡°There is still in the bowl, why are you grabbing it from me?¡± Xu Mo looked at the person in front of him with some sadness. Qin Yiming didn¡¯t speak, just approached the other side, with his hands on both sides of the youth¡¯s side. Their bodies were close together, their faces were so close, Qin Yiming could even see his own figure reflected in each other¡¯s eyes, his breathing became hot, and the air was filled with an ambiguous aura. ¡°Qin¡­Mr. Qin¡­¡± Xu Mo almost bit his tongue. He stared at each other in shock, as if his mind had crashed. The young man didn¡¯t know that the crimson had slowly climbed up his neck, and the shyness spread all the way to his cheeks¡­ At this moment, language was superfluous, the lips of the two slowly pressed together, Qin Yiming saw the mist in Xu Mo¡¯s eyes was like a layer of water vapor. The face of the other party turned crimson, and the red lips were slightly open, revealing the white teeth inside, so that he (QYM) couldn¡¯t help lowering his head to hold the lips of the young man, and then gently wrapped around the tip of the other party¡¯s tongue. The whole body trembled slightly to bear Qin Yiming¡¯s love, and the eyelashes were already wet unconsciously. When the two separated, Xu Mo didn¡¯t dare to look into Qin Yiming¡¯s eyes. He actually kissed a man! ¡°Did I scare you?¡± Qin Yiming raised the young man¡¯s chin and saw that there were still wet marks on the corner of the other¡¯s eyes. He knew in his heart that Xu Mo did not reject him. ¡°No¡­ No, no¡­¡± Xu Mo was a little shy, did he like men? It seems that he has never been interested in women¡­ ¡°That¡¯s good, see you tomorrow, I¡¯ll go back first.¡± Qin Yiming stopped after the order, and didn¡¯t do anything too much, he said goodbye politely and left. Chapter 3 Chapter 3: Are You Very Happy Now? Later, under Qin Yiming¡¯s tender offensive, Xu Mo fell. He followed the other party back to the villa and became Qin Yiming¡¯s underground lover. ¡°When will you break up with me?¡± Xu Mo listened to the gossip of the maids in the villa every day, and knew that Qin Yiming¡¯s lovers would not stay long. ¡°What nonsense¡­No¡­¡± Qin Yiming grabbed the hair on the back of Xu Mo¡¯s head, then pushed him against the wall and kissed him. Xu Mo couldn¡¯t push him away, so he had to bear it obediently, thinking in his heart: *Damn liar, last time you were drunk and you called me by the name of Wen Qing¡­¡¯ After half a month, the last thing Xu Mo wanted happened. Wen Qing has returned home. The other party was forced by his parents to study abroad in the early years. Qin Yiming¡¯s little thought about Wen Qing ended before it even started. Now that the person has returned, it is not impossible for the old love to revive. Regarding Wenqing¡¯s return to China, Qin Yiming did not hide it from Xu Mo. He directly told the youth, ¡°Today, Xiao (little) Wen Qing is going back to China, I will pick him up, and maybe stay at our house for a few days.¡± When Wen Qing followed Qin Yiming back to the villa, he thought that the other party was still single at least, but Qin Yiming directly introduced Xu Mo as his boyfriend. Wen Qing looked at Xu Mo without a trace. The other party looked very young, like someone in his early twenties, and his facial features were somewhat similar to his own. It seemed that Qin Yiming still had himself in his heart, otherwise how would he find him? A stand-in that looks like him? It¡¯s okay to be young now, but he is almost 27 years old this year, and he will get old after playing for a few years. He still has to find a good partner while he is young. After thinking about it, he remembered Qin Yiming, a young man before going abroad. So Wen Qing quit his job abroad and came back to Qin Yiming directly. A few days later, Wen Qing showed Qin Yiming a dozen reports, saying that he had depression and needed treatment. Qin Yiming immediately contacted a well-known psychiatrist he knew in the industry to take Wen Qing for treatment in person. Xu Mo watched from the side that Wen Qing was about to stick to Qin Yiming. He didn¡¯t say anything, and his heart was full of mixed feelings, thinking that should he leave as a substitute? Everyone ¡¯s White Moonlight is back, how embarrassing that he is still here¡­ Qin Yiming went home alone at night, and Wen Qing was left at the psychiatrist for psychological treatment. After Xu Mo took a bath, he went to bed first. He lay in bed and couldn¡¯t fall asleep. After a while, Qin Yiming came out of the bathroom and saw that the other party was naked, ¡°Why don¡¯t you wear clothes?¡± ¡°It¡¯s raining today, it¡¯s cold¡­¡± Xu Mo burrowed into the quilt, revealing only a furry head. His voice floated outside, ¡°If you sleep with me, it won¡¯t be cold.¡± Qin Yiming heard that there was something in the other party¡¯s words, he thought about it and asked, ¡°Did you miss me?¡± Xu Mo: ¡°¡­¡± We can¡¯t cover it together. Is the quilt pure chat? (T/N,: ??? I¡¯m lost QnQ) ¡°It seems that I have neglected you recently, so I will take care of all your requests¡­¡± Qin Yiming raised the corners of his lips, revealing a captivating smile. Xu Mo: ¡°¡­QAQ¡­I didn¡¯t mean that! I just wanted to have a good conversation with you.¡± ¡°You don¡¯t even have any clothes on, it¡¯s obvious that youjust miss me.¡± Qin Yiming climbed onto the bed and grabbed the other person¡¯s hand. ¡°Should I go?¡± Xu Mo asked cautiously. ¡°Where do you want to go?¡± Qin Yiming hugged the young man, kissed him and asked him, ¡°Am I bad to you? Don¡¯t leave me.¡± ¡°Okay, but Wen Qing¡­¡± Qin Yiming kissed the young man before he could finish speaking. The two people fit together, their lips and tongues tentatively entangled with each other. Xu Mo knew in his heart that the other party didn¡¯t want to answer about Wen Qing. Forget it, he didn¡¯t want to compare himself and Wen Qing which was more important in Qin Yiming¡¯s heart. Maybe he thought too much. In Qin Yiming¡¯s heart, he is not as good as a finger of the gentleman at all! This is the last time, and then he will run away! This will still leave a good impression on Qin Yiming, at least maybe he can remember his name in the future¡­ (T/N: I¡¯m not sure if he means running away or the *last supper* before he runs away) After doing it once, Qin Yiming hugged the other person who was experiencing the aftermath of the affair, but the young man in his arms twisted and twisted restlessly, forcibly enticing him into doing it again. ¡°Xu Mo, be honest, don¡¯t move¡­¡± Qin Yiming¡¯s voice was a little hoarse, with the idea that he should not overindulge, he has always been concerned about the other person¡¯s body. ¡°No, no, I¡¯m going to move.¡± Xu Mo teased the other party with a sly look in his eyes. Qin Yiming: ¡°¡­¡± Are you very happy with thick skin? Don¡¯t blame me if you can¡¯t get out of bed tomorrow, Qin Yiming held down the dishonest ¡°little loach¡±, slapped the opponent on the buttocks, and then covered the quilt and threw the opponent down¡­ and turned on the light. The next day, Xu Mo really couldn¡¯t get out of bed, and he also caught a cold and fever. The two had a good time last night. Qin Yiming forgot to help him clean it up, and he also forgot. (T/N: I suddenly kinda wanna know how many times they did it, and I also wanna smack QYM for forgetting aftercare) Qin Yiming was already rushing to work in the company early in the morning. The old housekeeper came over and saw that Xu Mo was feverish again. He couldn¡¯t bear to see it, so he went to find some cold medicine for Xu Mo to drink, and he said politely, ¡°Mr. Xu, I know the young master loves you, but you still have to be restrained, it will be bad for your health in the future¡­¡± Xu Mo: ¡°¡­¡± ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª I¡¯m so sorry, this is late lol. I was busy with school and homework (and for the next weeks as well) I¡¯ll try to get chapters out whenever I can but I¡¯m gonna be honest and make no promises. But anyways, thanks for waiting!
