  Although Gu Bai knew the plot, he doesn't know the details, it would be very dangerous to plan. He needs to be carefully prepared.
  Once there's a mishap, his end won't be anywhere better than Lu Rongqing's. Lu Rongqing's time to be killed is not far, he must focus* completely.

*全神贯注 give one's whole attention; concentrate the whole energy upon ...;

  Otherwise, once the waiting time for the original host to be killed in the plot is reached, even if he hides and doesn't drag the enemy down, it won't complete the task. He's not sure if the mysterious voice will obliterate him...
  Within a few days, the news that Nan Lichen likes Lu Rongqing and even resigned for him was spread among classmates like sparks*.

*星火燎原 a single spark can start a prairie fire; a spark of fire may burn the whole forest

  Lu Rongqing suddenly became the focus of the entire girls and some boys at school.
  Not only is Nan Lichen's appearance excellent, he is also in fact a very talented person. He's very talented in painting. Over time, if someone backs him up, he will definitely become a new star in the painting industry.
  Such a talented and extremely gentle male god like him is the Prince Charming of all the girls in school. Everyone is jealous and envious of Gu Bai. Such a male god would actually love Lu Rongqing, really endlessly jealous.
  After Nan Lichen’s resignation, the pursuit became even fiercer. Every day after school, he will come to the school gate and wait for Gu Bai to leave school. Then he will find various excuses to take him out to play, just like a couple dating, giving him countless romance.
  Gu Bai will always hesitate for a bit then shyly promise.
  Nie Qingcang is absent anyway. He heard that there was a problem with one of the company's projects and still haven't return from the business trip, no one will control him. At most, he will call him at night and video chat with his golden thigh to talk about brotherly feelings.
  Every time he went out with Nan Lichen, Gu Bai kept his ambiguous* attitude. Other than letting Nan Lichen hold his hand, he shyly refused all other intimate actions.

*若即若离 keep someone at arm's length; maintain a lukewarm relationship; neither accept nor reject

  This kind of ambiguous attitude not only did Nan Lichen not dislike it, it even made his heart itch. The saying 'what you're unable to obtain is the best' is not unreasonable.
  However, after almost half a month of fierce pursuit, Nan Lichen decided it's time to start. He must first let Wu Zhenzhen see some result, otherwise the deal will be cancelled.
  After receiving an invitation call from Nan Lichen, Gu Bai estimated that he was also about to start and naturally agreed to it.
  At the same time, Nie Qingcang who's on a business trip in M country also received news that his little brother is 'dating'...
  Nie Qingcang sat in the office of M’s branch office and stared at the mail on the computer. His eyes were red and his face was black like ink.
  Originally, he didn't intentionally look for someone to supervise Gu Bai. However, Lu Rongqing used to be too precarious and his credibility isn't high.
  It wasn't easy to finally see signs of Lu Rongqing changing for the better and becoming obedient, he was naturally pleased. Obediently calling him brother and crying dependently in his arms felt very good.
  Especially when hugging the boy with close skin contact, it's a wonderful kind of relish that he never had before. The boy's warm and delicate skin seem to have a layer of strong attractiveness, making people endlessly nostalgic*. Turns out the boy is actually so lovely and likable, no wonder people want younger brothers and sisters.

*reluctant to leave; hate to let go; recall fondly

  Therefore, in order to prevent the little brother who uneasily became obedient from reverting back to his old self, he wasn't at ease before going on the business trip and found someone to watch over him.
  Whenever he video chat with the boy or sees a photo of him from a subordinate in China, his mood will be inexplicably good.
  Looking at the beautiful and lovely boy smiling talk to him, the lips in the video moving slightly, eyes clear and bright, a delicate and slender neck, he has a kind of inexplicable heat and longing. He always felt that the boy is so attractive and enticing. Really want to try the feel of kissing that mouth....
  As for the question of why he wanted to go kiss the lips of the boy who had always been his little brother, before he could respond, he received a bad news.
  Lu Rongqing has a new boyfriend! ! !
  During this moment, he saw Gu Bai and Nan Lichen’s closeness in the photo. The boy looked at the other man and smiled happily. Nie Qingcang’s inexplicable anger burst out from his heart.
  When thinking of that lovely boy who smiles at him actually smiled toward someone else so brightly and shyly, that delicate fair skin touched by others, he feels that his brain is about to explode.
  After all, it looks like the two are deeply attracted and attached to each other from the photos, it's not the same as Fu Zixuan.
  Fu Zixuan? That's right, that guy even dared to strip off to seduce that man, went to the entertainment club and drank aphrodisiac. Then now....
  The image of Gu Bai lying under someone else's body and moaning melodiously involuntary emerged in his mind and he suddenly stood up from his chair.
  "Secretary Chen, immediately book a return ticket for me!"
  His fist punched the desk, even Nie Qingcang himself didn't know that his own expression look like he's about to go catch adultery*, his eyes blazing with fire.

*to catch a couple in the act (adultery, illicit sexual relations)

  *************
  Gu Bai doesn't know what's happening over at Nie Qincang's place. He's currently wholeheartedly focused on dealing with Nan Lichen.
  Nan Lichen brought him to a villa.
  In order to create the ambiance, Nan Lichen didn't turn on the lights when entering the door. The dark and quiet environment made people feel inexplicably nervous. Gu Bai also had this feeling.
  He felt a burst of grievances in his chest. It was clear that this villa is deeply memorable to original host.
  Sensing his awkwardness and tension, Nan Lichen smiled and told him to not be afraid. He quickly held his hand and stopped in front of the door.
  "It's here."
  Nan Lichen's voice that carried along a smile echoed in Gu Bai's ear. He pushed Gu Bai to the door and then opened it.
  "PA!"
  The sudden brightness stung Gu Bai's eyes a bit. He squinted his eyes and adjusted for a while, then he saw it clearly - it's a studio.
   A very spacious and messy room placed with prominent nose and deep-set eyes plaster models. Floors, furniture, and drawing boards are covered with beige linens. It looks very artistic.
  And at the very center of the room, a dais covered with white cloth is very eye-catching. It's a place for the model when sketching.
  Seeing the dais, Gu Bai only felt a severe pain spread from the bottom of his heart and the resentment in his chest grew stronger, the pain making it difficult to breath.
  This is the beginning of Lu Rongqing's suffering.
  In this studio, Nan Lichen obtained him and also ruined him.
  The touching gentleness, frivolous deceit, humiliating nudity, painful drug addiction and the final abandonment, the darkness is all here...
  Gu Bai took a deep breath and spent a great deal of effort to press down the emotions of the original host. Why Nan Lichen brought him here today is already obvious.
  Nan Lichen suddenly reached out and put his hands on Gu Bai's shoulders from behind. He bowed his head to whisper in his ear.
  "Rongqing, this studio is my favorite place. I once thought that I must draw an oil painting for my favorite person here... Will you be my model?"
  The breath from behind blew to the side of his ear, the overly close distance seems to make his voice magnetic, lingering and seductive.
  Gu Bai stared at the painting easel in front of him and smiled, his eyes a bit cold. He turned and put on his usual smile as he look at Nan Lichen with his eyes wide open.
  "Teacher, is Rongqing really your favorite person?"
  The boy stood quietly in front of him. Due to the height difference, he needed to raise his head. The soft lighting in the room made his beautiful face even more refine.
  The usual clear eyes that looked at him suddenly emitted a magnificent lustre, faintly as if there's a different kind of attraction and temptation......
  Unconsciously, Nan Lichen secretly swallowed his saliva, his heart a little fiery.
  He didn't answer Gu Bai's question, but looked at Gu Bai intently and gently said, "Why is it still teacher? Rongqing, I want to hear you call my name..."
  "Chen..."
  Gu Bai smiled and whispered, his face blushed.
  As always, the shy smile and soft voice made Nan Lichen's heart even hotter. It's not like he has never met a naive person, but there was no one as pure as the boy in front of him.
  Those who fall in love with him are plenty, but he was never moved by any of them. Only the boy's smile gave him a special kind of feeling, captivating him.
  He likes the boy looking at him while smiling shyly. Looking at him with those clear eyes and only his appearance is reflected.
  He wants to kiss him, kiss the boy's ruddy lips. The taste must be wonderful...
  Staring at his smiling face, Nan Lichen couldn't help but seize Gu Bai's shoulders and bow his head, trying to touch his lips.
  However, just before the lips were touched, Gu Bai turned his head to one side, escaped his kiss and pushed him away. He pointed to his pocket and said
  "Chen, your phone rang..."
  Nan Lichen was taken aback. He felt the vibration on his thigh. Sure enough, the phone really rang.
  He let go of Gu Bai with some disappointment and then took out his phone. When saw the phone call display "Dad", his face slightly changed.
  "Rongqing, you play here for a while. I'm going to go take this call."
  After that, Nan Lichen turned and walked out of the studio. Gu Bai thought for a moment and quietly followed.
  Nan Lichen walked out of the studio with the phone and went all the way to the corner to answer it.
  "Dad, why did you suddenly call? Are you unwell?"
  But there was no weak voice from his father in the call, it was the voice of a middle-aged man.
  “Is this Mr. Nan Lichen? Hello, I’m your father’s attending doctor. This is the case, your father’s condition is very serious and he needs surgery as soon as possible. However, it seems like that there's a problem with the previously approved kidney. Also, the hospital's medical expenses has not been paid for a long time..."
