Applaud for Happiness

Shen Qi had imagined various types of scenes where Jiang Changshen and his mother don’t get along, but he never thought they would be like this.
They looked more like enemies than family.

 

No wonder Jiang Changshen’s happiness value was originally at 20 points.

 

From what she spoke about, it wasn’t difficult to guess that Jiang Changshen suffered a lot as a child. Not only through verbal abuse, but she might have also assaulted him.

 

It was fortunate that he wasn’t taking his revenge against society after being abused for so long.

 

Just as he was lamenting, he heard Jiang Changshen’s low voice: “You heard everything?”

 

Shen Qi jolted back to reality.
He looked up and saw Jiang Changshen standing at the bottom of the stairs, he panicked and stood up: “Yes.
Sorry… I was worried about you.”

 

Jiang Changshen looked at him with no emotion.
He sat down on the sofa, took out a pack of cigarettes from under the table, lit it up, and then casually threw it, making a bang sound: “What do you want to ask?”

 

He exhaled a ring of smoke, blurring his face, which made it more difficult to see the expression on his face.

 

Shen Qi didn’t know why, but his heart suddenly ached.
He didn’t bother to put his shoes back on and directly ran down the stairs barefooted.
Because the floor was too slippery, he accidentally sprained his foot while running, but fortunately grabbed the railing in time.

 

Not caring about the pain in his foot, he ran to Jiang Changshen’s side with big strides and flung himself onto the sofa with a wronged expression.

“Your Majesty, I was wrong, I shouldn’t have eavesdropped, is it too late for me to say that I didn’t hear anything?” He leaned down and bowed, quietly raising his eyes to look at him.

 

The amusing expression and the funny tone made Jiang Changshen’s heart tremble.
An indescribable emotion spread within his heart.
He dragged Shen Qi over, pulled him into his arms, and pushed his legs apart with his knees, allowing Shen Qi to sit on him.

 

“You don’t want to ask? Are you not curious?” He cupped Shen Qi’s chin and made him look at him.
“This is your only chance.
There may not be another opportunity in the future.”

 

How can he not be interested? He was about to die from curiosity.

 

Shen Qi blinked.
If this was someone else, he would have grabbed their collar and asked.
But the man in front of him was Jiang Changshen.
He had been chasing him for a long time before they finally got together.
What was that one line from the advertisement? You had to hold them in your heart.

 

He was like the lead actor in the commercial.
He wanted Jiang Changshen with him forever, so that he would be happy every day.
Even if he was only interested in him for a while, even if they separate in the future, he still wanted him to be happy.

 

It was not that he was humble, but that he was used to Jiang Changshen being in the spotlight.
In his mind, Jiang Changshen was the one high up in the clouds.
For Jiang Changshen to be willing to be with him made him so happy that he almost ascended to heaven. Maybe in a few years, when he had achievements in the entertainment industry, with many fans supporting and chasing him, would his mind become calmer.
But right now, he still looked at Jiang Changshen and treated him as his male god.

 

Yet, what happened today allowed him to see the other side of Jiang Changshen.
As if this perfect male god he thought had torn open a corner and revealed a reality that he couldn’t touch before.
He thought he would be disappointed, but no, his heart only ached.

 

With his rarely serious expression, he gazed into Jiang Changshen’s eyes: “If you are willing to talk about it, I will listen.
If you don’t want to talk about it, I won’t ask.
I won’t misunderstand you because of someone else’s words.
I only trust you.
Of course, I do want to listen to your story.
But don’t worry, I have a tight mouth and won’t tell anyone about this.
I can swear on this.
“

 

How could he not want to ask? Of course, he wanted to listen.
But he was more worried about him.
If he didn’t want him to ask, then he wouldn’t pry into it.
Yet if he told him, he would be the best listener.

 

There were some feelings that words cannot express.
He had to use the expressions within his eyes to let him understand.

 

Jiang Changshen did not say anything, however, the repressed emotions surged out.
He directly grabbed Shen Qi’s chin and kissed him.

 

It was an intense and exciting kiss, bringing a strong scent of tobacco and powerful emotions.

 

This time Shen Qi was no longer passive.
He took the initiative to encircle Jiang Changshen’s neck and kissed back passionately, hooking onto Jiang Changshen’s tongue.
The two slippery tongues entwined.

 

He followed the flow and laid on the couch, pulling Jiang Changshen to get on top of him, hugging the other tightly.  They had long been familiar with each other’s bodies after dating for almost a month, knowing very well how to ignite each other’s fire.

 

Shen Qi softened his body, hugging Jiang Changshen securely and rubbing against him uncontrollably.
His suppressed moans spilling out from his throat, sweet and tantalizing.

 

His clothes were lifted, and a hand explored in and slowly went down.
Shen Qi opened his eyes, not willing to show weakness, and grasped onto him.

 

Jiang Changshen got up and released his lips.
He took another puff from the cigarette that never left his hand.
Instead of exhaling out the smoke, he kissed Shen Qi again.
The strong smoke spread between their lips.
Shen Qi was stimulated to the point that he vented out.

 

“Hah.
” Jiang Changshen suddenly smiled.
His chest shook, and his eyes were full of joy.

 

It’s so humiliating!

 

“Wu…” Shen Qi hated that he couldn’t hide his face.
It was just a kiss! Shen Xiaoqi, you are too cowardly!

 

He put away the object in his hand and angrily glared at Jiang Changshen.
What’s so funny?! Go jerk off yourself! I won’t serve you anymore!

 

Jiang Changshen loved his appearance, not minding the desire within him. He puffed the last of his cigarette, and he kissed him again with the smoke in his mouth while extinguishing the cigarette, then went back to holding Shen Qi tightly with both hands, kissing him until he could barely breathe before letting go.

 

“Do you like it? Are you comfortable?”

 

He laid down with Shen Qi and bit his ear.
He liked the way Shen Qi allowed him to do anything he wanted.
He liked his appearance when he pleaded.
However this time, he wanted to make him comfortable more than satisfying his own desire and possessiveness.

 

Shen Qi’s face was flushed red, panting slightly, the lust in his eyes could not be concealed.
He heard the words and carefully observed Jiang Changshen’s expression.
He was relieved.
Corny words came out in his mouth: “I’m comfortable when you’re happy.” 

 

Jiang Changshen’s eyes darkened, his long legs stretched out to press him down.
“Are you trying to provoke me right now? You don’t believe that I won’t sleep with you?”

 

Shen Qi nodded his head with a serious face: “Yes, of course I believe.” He spread his hands, “Come on, don’t go gentle on me because I look delicate.”

 

Jiang Changshen rubbed his head, raised his hand and knocked it.
Fiercely hugged him into his arms before releasing him, then laid down with his arms around him and regained his composure.

 

It was silent in the room.

 

Shen Qi was gently panting, while Jiang Changshen seemed to be thinking about something.
The two were close together.
There was a rare harmony and warmth.

 

After a minute or two, Jiang Changshen finally opened his mouth to break the silence.

 

“I…” his mouth opened but paused as if hesitating to organize his words.
“My parents divorced when I was ten years old, but in fact, their relationship had already gone bad.
“

 

“My father is a sensitive and paranoid man, he…” He slurred, “In short, he did not want my mother to go out and work, hoping that she could stay at home, but she did not want to.
She liked her work, and couldn’t let go of her career.”

 

In fact, he described his father lightly.
He is not only sensitive and paranoid, but he was also overbearing and stubborn, paranoid to the extreme, and his desire to control was almost pervertedly abnormal.

 

He did not allow his wife to work, to go out, or even to get too close to his own son. 

 

He wanted to confine his wife in the villa, only allowed to look at him, not even allowed to pay any attention to her own children.

 

His mother and father met and fell in love when they became adults.
A young girl ignorantly fell in love and married him before graduating.
In order for her to stay with him, they had Changshen.
Later, his father let her become a teacher so that she wouldn’t be too close to him.

 

His mother gave him up in exchange for a moment of freedom.
Yet after he was four years old, all he got was a cold look from his mother.
Later on, when the trouble became worse and worse, she began to resent him, resenting the fact that she had to marry his father because of him.

 

And the more she manipulated him and treated him coldly, the happier his father was that she was only intimate with him.

 

Later, his mother discovered this fact.
Whenever she wanted to upset his father, she would hug him and kiss him, cook him good food like the mother in the advertisement he longed for, take him to play in the garden, and teach him how to play the piano.
This often resulted in him being thrown out of the house or locked in his room.

 

However, his father never laid his hands on him.

 

He did not dare to say any of this.
Afraid that it would scare Shen Qi.

 

Mother Jiang was right about one thing.
He had his father’s blood in him, inheriting almost everything from him such as appearance, height, posture…and even personality.

 

Thinking of this, his hand on Shen Qi tightened and continued, “Later, my mother finally could not stand it and drugged my father, pushing him and his secretary into a room …”

 

The cup that Father Jiang and Secretary Chen used was from him.

 

The memory that was buried was now mentioned.
He reached out and put his hand on his forehead, then closed his eyes: “Because of this incident, my mother managed to get rid of my father, my father left her a sum of money, and took Aunt Chen out of the country.
And my mother took me to her new lover.”

 

Shen Qi’s eyes widened.
It wasn’t Jiang Changshen’s father who cheated on her.
Instead, his mother was the one who cheated first.

 

Jiang Changshen nodded, “Yes, my mother met another man at that time.
He was a music teacher like her, and they were like-minded.
The reason she set my father up for divorce was because she was already pregnant with Jiang Nianjin.”

 

Shen Qi was shocked, so Jiang and his brother were technically half-siblings with the same mother but different fathers!

 

“My mother was deeply in love with that man at that time.
Using her words, she and my father were only young and ignorant.
She was truly in love with Jiang Shujin.
Oh, Jiang Shujin is her lover.
His surname is also Jiang, isn’t that coincident? Jiang Nianjin, Jiang Nianjin.
You know what it means just by hearing it.”

 

He did not know why his mother left him behind.
He once had hope, thinking that if his father left, she would be nicer to him.
Yet, in her eyes, only Jiang Nianjin is her son.
He is the product of their true love.
Jiang Changshen was an embarrassment to her.

 

Shen Qi didn’t know what to say.
There were some things Jiang Changshen did not explain, but combined with what Mother Jiang said, he could guess what had happened.
Mother Jiang may be more ruthless than he expected.
He could not help but turn around and hug Jiang Changshen, hoping that it could give him support.

 

“What happened afterwards? What about Jiang Shujin?” Why had he never heard of Mother Jiang remarrying after all these years?

 

“Him? He’s dead.” Jiang Changshen laughed.
