The Self-cultivation of Omega Running with the Ball

The two dressed neatly and became the elegant President Pei and President Wen again. However, President Wen suddenly fell ill and had to leave early, so he only showed up to say hello. As for President Pei, he still hosted the celebration banquet as usual, although no one present could guess what kind of money he had in his pocket.

The celebration banquet ended successfully. Pei Du returned to his car, but saw a lonely figure leaning against the car door, smoking a cigarette in a daze.

"Qiuqiu?" Pei Du smiled, "Why didn't you leave?"

"Did you enjoy it? I didn't." Wen Qiu's eyes were full of invitations, "Let's go to the hotel?"

Pei Du pushed him into the car without saying anything, "Go back to my house."

Pei Du lived in a villa in Yan City. In fact, he preferred the scenery and view from a high place, but for some reason, he probably would never live in a high-rise building again in his life.

But his taste was as good as ever, and the house was full of the owner's taste and homely atmosphere. From the moment he stepped into the door, Wen Qiu couldn't help but fall into memories.

He recalled that when he first stepped into Pei Du's house many years ago, he was deeply shocked, as if he had seen a life that was unattainable and undesirable. Now, his mentality is completely different. He only dislikes the lighting of the living room windows and the open design of the kitchen.

"Come with me," Pei Du pulled him to the top floor, "I'll show you something."

The entire top floor was connected to form a room. After checking the fingerprint and locking the door, Wen Qiu entered. There was no light inside. At first glance, Wen Qiu thought he saw a warehouse, and saw large and small items placed on the display cabinets in different categories.

The left partition is full of used items, such as half-read books with bookmarks, drafts full of inspiration, used towels and cups, pajamas, pillows... and even the bed in the bedroom. Pei Du moved almost everything in that house here intact.

All these old things were frozen in time, as if waiting for a person who might return at an unknown time. Countless memories fluttered in the air like catkins. Wen Qiu felt a little breathless and immediately looked to the other side.

There were many unopened gifts in the cabinet on the other side. Some of them were priceless, while others were just fun or interesting gadgets. Each gift had a small card attached to it. Wen Qiu picked up one at random and opened it, and saw Pei Du's vigorous handwriting:
"On September 9, XX, I picked up a beautiful yellow leaf and realized that autumn has come. I wonder when the sweet-scented osmanthus in the yard will bloom? The weather is getting colder, and I miss it so much."

Next to the carefully preserved leaf was an exquisite jewelry box. Wen Qiu continued to read: "March 3, XX. This emerald is very beautiful, just like his eyes."

Wait, if he remembered correctly, this necklace was sold at a sky-high price at an auction last year. It was said that it was bought by a mysterious Chinese tycoon, and it turned out to be him...

"I said before, when I miss you I can't help but buy a lot of gifts." Pei Du glanced at the gifts that filled half of the floor, "Actually, this is the result of restraint."

"What did you restrain..." Wen Qiu muttered softly, his eyes fell on the cabinet at the end. That cabinet was the only one on the entire floor that was covered tightly, making it look particularly mysterious.

"Oh, that one." Pei Du took him over and opened the cabinet door. There was a different world inside. First, there were many developed photos, and the protagonists on them were all Wen Qiu. However, Wen Qiu didn't like taking photos back then, so there were not many photos left. Most of them were taken when Pei Du celebrated his birthday for the first time. In the photos, he was very happy sitting on the ground and opening gifts one by one.

Inside were many small toys they had used before, as well as Wen Qiu's underwear. In the middle was an empty perfume bottle. The kiss marks on the card had become blurred due to repeated friction, and the fragrance inside had long since disappeared due to countless times of absorption.

It was obvious what the things in this cabinet were used for. Anyone who saw it would think he was a pervert! Wen Qiu couldn't help but blush for him just by looking at him.

"So for the past four years, you've been doing that kind of thing with these things..."

"Yeah." Pei Du nodded calmly. In fact, when he was reduced to being able to comfort himself with these things at the beginning, he also felt very absurd and pathetic. However, the unrelieved thoughts and desires accumulated little by little, and eventually turned into a torrent that overwhelmed his reason.

Pei Du solemnly placed the tattered stockings and the wet rabbit tail on the shelf, then looked up at him, "What about you?"

"what?"

"What will you do when you miss me and have desires for me?" His tone seemed to be certain that Wen Qiu had the same longing as himself for the past four years.

"I tried to start a new relationship, but your mark was too overbearing, and those people were scared away. I myself have a bit of...physiological aversion to those people." Wen Qiu touched the back of his neck, "Then I took medicine to control it. For a few years, I had no desire at all, and I didn't get hard, but at that time I felt that I didn't need these things."

Pei Du took a deep breath and held him tightly in his arms, "I should have come to you at that time. No matter whether you would hate it or not, I should have held you tightly and not let go..."

That was four whole years, too much forbearance, too much longing, and too many unfulfilled wishes.

"There's nothing to regret," Wen Qiu was held obediently by him, "Maybe if you had kept coming to see me, I wouldn't have returned home. We both made the best decision we could make under the circumstances, so this must be the best result we can achieve."

"Hmm..." Pei Du buried his head in his neck, greedily absorbing his breath. ALPHA's tall body pressed on him, making him feel the familiar heaviness... and peace of mind.

"But I still have to say," Wen Qiu patted his back slowly, "your habit of collecting these things is really perverted."

"Actually, there is something I don't know where to put it..."

"Ok?"

Pei Du looked at him with burning eyes, "Where should I put the 'I love you' you said to me today?"

Wen Qiu knew that he was lying about his confession again, so he smiled and patted his chest, "Keep it in your heart, idiot."

After this period of investigation, they have obtained a large amount of evidence of Xie Guangming's illegal and criminal activities. However, when these heinous crimes are laid out before them one by one, things become more difficult.

As Pei Du said, the problem is that it is too sufficient, too arrogant, and too blatant. However, Xie Guangming has been making waves in Yan City for decades, and no one has ever been able to touch him. Behind him is a complex interest group, and they all prosper and suffer together. In order to avoid being dragged out of the mud, the people behind him will do their best to protect him.

Wen Qiu only wanted to deal with Xie Guangming, and didn't want to make too many enemies and bring himself endless troubles. So after discussing with Pei Du, they agreed that starting with personal morality was a good breakthrough - Xie Guangming must be labeled a pedophile and rapist, turning his existence into a stain, so that the people behind him would think that they had stained their hands by saving him.

The problem is that Xie Guangming himself is also very aware of this, so he acts extremely cautiously and leaves almost no loopholes.

That day, Wen Qiu was eating while reading the materials, trying to find the missing information. He stretched out his hand to grab his water cup, but he couldn't touch it after two attempts. Suddenly, the water cup came over and filled his palm.

He looked up and saw that it was Lan Ze's small body leaning over half of the table and handing him water.

"Thank you." Wen Qiu smiled at him.

Lan Ze also gave him a shy smile, and then with this soft and sticky smile, he slowly said something astonishing: "Uncle Wen, I can testify to this."

"Ahem." Wen Qiu choked while drinking water, put down the information and looked at him, "Do you know what testimony is?"

Lan Ze nodded and stammered, "In court, I will tell my father what Xie Guangming did to me and have him arrested and put in jail."

Wen Zhiyao, who was sitting next to him, held his hand encouragingly, as if to give him strength. It was obvious that the two children had done their own investigation. Lan Ze mustered up the courage to continue: "I didn't know before that he would be arrested by the police for what he did to me, but now I know, and I can tell you everything. It's not just me, I also know there are others..."

Before Lan Ze could finish his words, Wen Qiu's hand fell on his head and rubbed it vigorously.

"You are very brave, little Lan Ze," Wen Qiu praised, "but it doesn't matter, you don't have to stand up, just leave this matter to us adults. There is only one thing you need to do, and that is to forget."

Lan Ze looked up at him with his confused eyes. He didn't know what it meant to be a witness - to recount the injuries to different people, to be regarded as a thorn in the eye by Xie Guangming and to face danger, and to have sympathetic eyes, malicious looks, and endless rumors that he couldn't get rid of... Wen Qiu never thought of letting him endure these.

"But what about the other people you mentioned? Do you have other children besides you?"

"Well, I had a brother who was a little older than me, and a sister with very long hair," Lan Ze recalled. "Every time they were brought here by a very tall man, and then sent away at night. When they left, they were carried out in the arms of someone else..."

This tall man was probably the one who was responsible for managing Xie Guangming's harem. Wen Qiu continued to ask, "Do you remember this tall man's name?"

"Well...others call him Brother Lei."

Wen Qiu's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect to get such an unexpected reward. "Is there a mole on your left cheek?"

"Correct."

Wen Qiuxin understood, asked Lan Ze some more questions, and then told the children to go out and play. He rested his chin on his hand and thought for a moment, then he called Pei Du.

The next day, a tall man wearing a baseball cap and a mask hurried into Guan Qingcai's coffee shop. Without saying hello to anyone, he went straight to the second floor and knocked on the owner's door.

The door opened quickly, and Guan Qingcai, dressed in dazzling attire, smiled sweetly and said, "Hey, busy man, you finally come out."

The man suddenly hugged Guan Qingcai's waist, flirted with him for a while, then pushed him onto the bed, not forgetting to carefully close the door.

"You don't know how strict the inspection in the house has been recently! Not to mention me, the big brother, even ordinary minions can't go out at will." The man pulled off his hat and mask, revealing a handsome face with a mole on his left cheek. He was the "Brother Lei" mentioned by Lan Ze.

"Humph, you just have a lot of excuses, and I'm not in your heart," Guan Qingcai hooked his chin and scolded, "Back then, when there were so many eyes watching us at the Xie family, was there ever a time when I didn't come when you called me?"

Back then, Brother Lei was still A Lei, an ordinary bodyguard in Xie's house. He also relied on his good looks to get involved with the flirtatious hostess.

"Okay, okay, I've come to see you despite the risk of being killed by that old guy..." As he said that, Brother Lei impatiently unbuckled his belt, but he found that Guan Qingcai under him had a strange expression, as if she was extremely nervous.

"Why are you so nervous... Ugh!"

A big hand suddenly grabbed his throat from behind, causing him to howl in pain. Before he could struggle free, a needle pierced his shoulder, causing Lei Ge to fall forward dizzy.

More bodyguards quickly emerged from his closet, under his bed, and behind the curtains, and methodically tied Brother Lei up like a dumpling.

Guan Qingcai quickly crawled to the side crying and was almost crushed by him. He looked at the two people who came in and said, "I will never do this again, no matter what!"

Wen Qiu comforted him perfunctorily: "Okay, it's nothing serious."

"You don't know how terrible this Lei's methods are. When he gets out, he will definitely take revenge on me!"

"Don't worry," Pei Du checked on Lei Ge who was completely unconscious, "He won't appear again."
