I Got My Bad Side Awakened After Rebirth

107. He Regretted

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

“Eat, Ziming, why are you staring at me?” In the restaurant, seeing Gu Zi looking straight at himself, Ling Fan was stunned and then asked.

Hearing Ling Fan’s words, Gu Ziming did not withdraw his eyes, but smiled lightly.

“Nothing, it’s just… I found that you look quite handsome today.” Gu Ziming looked at Ling Fan while saying some complimenting words.

Although Ling Fan was handsome, when he saw him, Ling Fan was usually in school uniform or some casual clothes, or, it would be a simple white shirt. It was the first time he saw him wearing like this.

It was obvious that he specially got dressed up.

One had to say, compared with before Ling Fan had a more steady yet energetic temperament now, handsome, and also captivating.

If Ling Fan had got dressed up for tonight…ahem, for the date tonight, maybe he would be even happier.

Sadly…

Gu Ziming’s eyes were dark, but then he resumed his previous warmness.

“Something bothering you?” Gu Ziming asked, and his eyes were filled with concern and curiosity.

“Huh?” Ling Fan was stunned.

Was it that obvious?

“Very obvious,” Gu Ziming nodded and said in a rarely firm tone.

From the moment they sat by the table, no, from when they got into the taxi, Ling Fan looked like absent-minded.

When he got out of the car, he paid the driver 100 yuan, even forgot about the changes. And then, using the chopsticks upside down, taking the pepper as salt, and even drinking the coffee without adding some milk and sugar…

At first, he thought that Ling Fan was nervous.

However, soon he found it was not like that at all…

Although he was sitting in front of him, Ling Fan kept looking absent-minded.

“Is there something bothering you?” Seeing that Ling Fan was silent, Gu Ziming asked again.

“Hehe, no, nothing,” Ling Fan smiled and said with a perfunctory tone.

However, in this regard, Gu Zi clearly did not get tangled.

“If you don’t say it, don’t say it”, Gu Ziming sighed, made a pause, and then seriously said, “If you really have any trouble and can’t solve it yourself, you can also tell me, even if I may not have the ability to help, at least I can share the burden.”

“Mm, okay, thank you, Brother Ziming,” Ling Fan went into silence again.

“Oh, let’s talk about something else. Today, you are treating me. I don’t want your things to affect the atmosphere of tonight’s date.” Seeing that Ling Fan obviously didn’t want to talk about the previous topic, Gu Ziming smiled and naturally changed a relaxed tone.

It was not a date, but a simple gesture of gratitude and a treat.

If Lin Fan noticed what Gu Ziming was saying, he would definitely correct it. Unfortunately, there were other things occupying his heart, so he didn’t even listen to what he was saying.

“Ahem, Brother Ziming, I’m sorry,” Ling Fan said. Not only because he was absent-minded, but mainly because he knew that Chu Xiao misunderstood his relationship with Gu Ziming before. Did he just used Gu Ziming in some way?

“Hehe, what’s there to apologize, but…” When saying the word but, Gu Ziming deliberately elongated the tone.

“What?”

“Why do you keep calling me ‘Brother Ziming’?” Gu Zi looked at Ling Fan and asked, “Is it because you think I am old?”

“Ahem, no…” Ling Fan coughed dryly when he heard his words.

Uhh…He had only heard that women didn’t like being called “aunt”, but never heard men didn’t like being called ‘brother’.

“What is it then?” Gu Ziming picked his eyebrow and asked, obviously having a posture with this question.

“Didn’t I always call you that before?” Ling Fan smiled and said, “And…”

“You are like a very respectful and grateful elder brother, so I should call you ‘Brother Ziming’,” Ling Fan said with a serious expression.

However, obviously, he did not notice a trace of disappointment flashing across Gu Ziming’s eyes.

“Hehe, I see…” Gu Ziming smiled stiffly.

“Eat quickly, otherwise it won’t be delicious if it gets cold.” Without waiting for Ling Fan to say anything more, Gu Ziming urged.

“Okay.”

…

“Wouldn’t you go upstairs to take a seat?” After dinner, standing at the door, Gu Zi looked at Ling Fan.

“No, I still got things to do, Brother Ziming, I gotta go,” Ling Fan said so. Then, he went straight to the taxi parked beside.

Looking at the taxi driving far away, Gu Ziming’s eyes flashed a trace of confusion…

Was it his illusion? He felt that the current Ling Fan was becoming more and more incomprehensible…

In the taxi…

“Sir, where are we going?” After driving out of the community, the driver in front asked when he saw that Ling Fan had not said anything.

“Mid-Levels Villa Estate.” Hearing the driver’s words, Ling Fan said a place without hesitation. He paused and then added, “Hurry up.”

He regretted it.

Mm, to be precise, the moment he got into the taxi from the hospital, he already regretted it.

In the past two hours, he had been thinking about what expression Chu Xiao would be wearing and how he would feel.

Could he be so mad that he even wanted to kill him? Would he be jealous like last time? Would he be…sad? Would he feel so disappointed about him…

Or he didn’t care about him at all?

No, no.

If he didn’t care about himat all, Chu Xiao wouldn’t have changed his original plan because of his attitude in the meeting just now, nor would he have followed him all the way to the hospital!

However, no matter what kind of reaction it was, whether he was angry or mad, Ling Fan found that in his mood, he couldn’t find the slightest hint of joy of achieving his goal.

On the contrary, Ling Fan felt even more uncomfortable when he thought that Chu Xiao might feel sad.

Irritated, depressed, worried…

That was Ling Fan’s current state.

So, what had he done before?

Pissing off Chu Xiao while torturing himself?

Ling Fan smiled with a dispirited and sarcastic smile.

Originally, he only wanted to use this method to make himself exist in Chu Xiao’s head more profound and difficult to erase. He also used this kind of stimulation to force the other side to face his feelings for him like a catalyst.

If this continued, it might really work.

But now, Ling Fan didn’t want to.

The most important thing he wanted to do right now was to go to look for Chu Xiao and then… apologize.

Apologize for his bad behaviors during this period of time.

By the way, tell him that he likes him.

Even if Chu Xiao would not accept him, he could tie him directly to bed or use some other method. In short, he would not make Chu Xiao sad anymore.

…

“No need for the changes.” After getting out of the taxi, Ling Fan once again gave the driver a hundred yuan.

Holding the access control card, Ling Fan easily entered the community, and then went to Chu Xiao’s residence.

This time, Ling Fan did not visit the unlucky fatty’s home anymore. Instead, he went straight to Chu Xiao’s place.

As for the access card, it was actually from Chu Xiao’s family. It was found the first time Lei Wu kidnapped him.

But…

Looking outside at the dark windows, Ling Fan’s eyes suddenly sank.

However, he still swiped his card and opened the door.

In the living room.

No…

In the study room.

No…

In the bathroom.

Still no…

“Not here…”

Ling Fan murmured as he sat down on the sofa in disappointment.

In most cases, Chu Xiao would sleep here, but if he didn’t…

Damn it!

Ling Fan cursed in the heart and rubbed his hair regretfully.

Although he didn’t know why Chu Xiao didn’t come back, Ling Fan faintly felt bad.

Looked what stupid things he had done…

Ling Fan cursed himself in his heart. He did not get up and leave, but sat silently and deadly on the sofa…

Ling Fan sat at Chu Xiao’s house for the whole night, while Chu Xiao, on the other side, also sat for the whole night…

“Young master, it’s almost dawn. Go and rest for a while,” the old housekeeper, who was already in his seventies, said with a worried expression as he placed a cup of hot water on the coffee table in front of Chu Xiao.

He had always been taking care of this place. Apart from visiting from time to time, the young master would rarely come over here. After all… this place was filled with too many the young masters’ memories.

But this was what the old housekeeper was worried about.

Usually, the young master rarely came, even more rarely at night…

Last night, the young master suddenly came. It was likely that something bad had happened…

Moreover, he did not expect the young master to be like this all night. Silent, the whole person was haunted with some kind of low, gloomy and negative emotions.

It was rare for the young master to be like this. Even when that incident happened, he had never seen the young master like this…

Finally, the old housekeeper asked, “Did something bad happen?”

Chu Xiao was stunned and shook his head.

“Nothing, but… there is someone who I don’t know how to handle,” Chu Xiao said with his eyes lowered.

For Chu Xiao, there were always two ways to deal with other people. If the other side deserved to die, then kill him. If not that serious, he’d never give the other side a chance to show up before him.

But…Ling Fan was neither of those two kinds.

He liked him, but it looked like the other side didn’t care about him at all. He can even continue fooling around with others after doing that to him recklessly.

Did he deserve to die?

Maybe…

At least, according to his usual principles and style, what Ling Fan had done to him was enough to die hundreds of times.

The irony was that he couldn’t do it…

…

Ling Fan had waited at Chu Xiao’s house for three whole days. In these three days, he asked Lei Wu to look for him but didn’t find any clue.

He was not in any residence he knew, he did not go to Chu Group, not the gang, or even appeared in public sight…

On the third day, Ling Fan’s phone rang.

Unfortunately, it was not about Chu Xiao, but Little Lei Lei said incoherently that a thief sneaked into his place…
