Rebirth: A Doted Toy Boy In ‘Another' World

“My apologies. Mr. Pei. I saw the picture and thought Mrs. Pei had returned. That’s why I said it unconsciously. I’m really sorry.”

The secretary was shivering as she grabbed on her own wrist and kept her head down in terror.

‘Picture? What Picture? Was it the picture of the guy who looks like me? That’s why the secretary  took me for someone else? But, Mrs.? That must be Pei Siyan’s wife, right? A woman or a man?’

“Get the f**k out of my face.” Another deafening roar echoed in the room.

“Understood.”

The secretary dared not stay any longer, so she bowed and left in a rush.

“God damn it! I’m so done with your psycho a** now! I’ll just leave.”

Jiang Sheng stood up and was ready to go. He couldn’t endure Pei any more, not even for one second.

“You’d better come back and sit down before I get angry to you.”

Pei Siyan frowned and said coldly.

“What? Haven’t you got angry yet?”

Jiang Sheng looked back and sneered at Pei. He was going to give Pei Siyan a middle finger right in his face but with a deafening sound of glass shattering, the French window broke into pieces and a bullet came straight toward him.

“Get down!”

Jiang Sheng heard Pei Siyan roaring. When he regained consciousness, he found Pei Siyan was holding him in his arms tightly and covered Jiang Sheng under his body.

“Are you trying to get yourself killed? Don’t you know you should dodge when you see a bullet coming right at you?”

Pei Siyan shouted at Jiang Sheng. But this time, there was panic and nervousness in his eyes when he looked down at Jiang Sheng in his arms.

Jiang Sheng swallowed as he looked at Pei Siyan. Jiang Sheng was breathing so heavily as if his lungs were going to explode. His heartbeat went fast because of terror all of a sudden.

“Well… How the f**k would I know if there was a bullet coming at me?”

Jiang Sheng objected in a hasty tone but without being arrogant like he used to be. Terror was written all over his fac. Obviously, he was terrified.

Pei Siyan was going to shout at him again. But the moment he saw Jiang Sheng’s terrified face, he couldn’t bear to do that. He cursed in silence, carried Jiang Sheng, hid at the back of the wall and loaded his pistol as fast as he could.

“Okay, I’ll count to three, and you’ll be running towards the door immediately. Go find Bai Hao. He will protect you.”

“But… but what about you?”

Though he was in panic, Jiang Sheng could never leave Pei Siyan behind.

“F**k it, we are in this together. I’ll not leave you alone here.”

‘There is a sniper in the building across from us. The bullet shattered the French window and went straight toward me. Needless to say, the sniper was aiming to take my life. Pei is not safe, either; otherwise, he won’t draw his gun out.’

“This is not negotiable. Leave as I asked you to.”

“No, I will be here with you.” Jiang Sheng was determined about this.

Suddenly, Pei Siyan was in a trance. A figure overlapped with Jiang Sheng. That was someone who had the same firm eyes as him.

A touch of pain appeared in Pei Siyan’s eyes; he stroked Jiang Sheng’s cheek gently and said in a choked voice with sobs, “Honey.”

Even his voice was filled with agony and sorrow. For the first time ever, Jiang Sheng saw tears in Pei Siyan’s eyes.

Even though he knew Pei Siyan was seeing another man through him, his heart still missed a beat. He felt ripples in his heart.

He didn’t want it that way for he knew he was only a replacement for someone else. But Pei Siyan’s call was so deeply filled with love that he couldn’t help falling for it.

“Ha… Hahaha, am I already insane like this?”

Pei Siyan chuckled and asked himself in that trembling voice. A drop of tear rolled down from the corner of his eye. He then returned to silence and eventually apologized, “I’m sorry about that.”

Jiang Sheng felt complicated for that apology, but he still managed to calm down his feelings and replied calmly, “It’s okay.”
