Chapter 1257: Chapter 1258 Eyes Saw (3)
"Boss! Help me out, I’m losing my mind!"
Tan Yulin’s messy red hair piled up on his head; he was only wearing a simple white shirt with mismatched buttons, the hem hanging loose outside, and his black casual pants were covered in dirt.
After Gu Yelin opened the door, he raised an eyebrow and glanced at his outfit, with amusement flickering in his eyes.
"It’s early in the morning, can’t people have some peace? If you’re too full of energy, I can send you to the Beiyan Continent to dig for diamonds."
Tan Yulin froze for a moment, then erupted into wailing.
"Then hurry and send me to the Beiyan Continent! I’d rather dance the strip dance with the black girls there than be with that pretty boy!"
An Yiqing, who just arrived at the entryway, happened to hear the phrase "pretty boy" and couldn’t help but twitch her mouth.
"What pretty boy? Tan Yulin, when did your tastes change? Didn’t you always like full-figured women before?"
Tan Yulin’s face stiffened, and he gave An Yiqing an irritated glare, but then realized she couldn’t see. His eyeballs were stuck, neither going up nor down, looking like a deranged mental patient having a fit.
Gu Yelin carefully supported An Yiqing, and when he turned, he caught sight of Tan Yulin’s eyes rolling around, suddenly feeling embarrassed to have such a subordinate.
"Stop rolling them; your eyes are going to pop out. Explain clearly, what exactly is going on?"
Hearing this, Tan Yulin nearly knelt on the ground, hugging Gu Yelin’s leg and bawling.
"Boss, it’s that Eddie! Did you forget about him?! He’s living at my place now, treating me like a servant every day, absolutely no human rights! Boss, please send me to the Beiyan Continent to dance with the black girls, just let me stay far away from that pretty boy, I’d even marry a black girl and bring her home as my wife if I have to!"
Tan Yulin was on the verge of tears, unable to comprehend what kind of life he was living these days. That Eddie, young as he might be, was a stickler for everything. His daily meals and accommodations had to be up to the Country Zi Royal Family standards, like what kind of coffee beans were needed for brewed coffee, exact temperature settings, what to pair with steak, what kind of bedding to use for sleep, and a whole lot of other bothersome demands that nearly drove Tan Yulin to throw him out, wheelchair and all.
Fortunately, Eddie had that Qiao Si guy around. Tan Yulin would bet his life that without Qiao Si, Eddie’s finicky personality would have led him to starve in his own family.
"Eddie? Who’s that?" An Yiqing was puzzled, having no idea what’s going on. When Eddie appeared, An Yiqing was missing, yet the two seemed to have some fateful bond. If not for Eddie meddling on the street, Gu Yelin wouldn’t have discovered An Yiqing’s whereabouts.
Gu Yelin briefly recounted the story of An Yiqing and Eddie helping an old lady on the street, leaving An Yiqing fascinated, as that jumpy man turned out to be Ah Lin’s friend! The world is really small!
"Is it really okay to just leave him at Tan Yulin’s place like that?"
An Yiqing’s comment made Tan Yulin nod repeatedly, looking at her with gratitude.
Who would have thought An Yiqing then said: "Even Xiao Hei and Old Jin don’t like visiting Tan Yulin’s place; how do you expect a noble, blond, blue-eyed handsome guy from Country Zi to survive in that den?"
"Oh come on! Xiao Qing, what do you mean my place is a den? Even Xiao Hei and Old Jin don’t like visiting? My house is just a bit free-spirited, but overall, it’s still quite clean." Tan Yulin was displeased.
An Yiqing twitched her mouth and rolled her eyes, choosing not to speak further.
