Evil Love Appears chapter 80

“Anyway, I just don’t want to see him,” Fu Jing grumbled while petting the chubby cat.

“I never agreed to their relationship. He insisted on coming over to bring gifts. Who agreed to that? Regardless of how rich he is, he’s a divorced man with a child. I don’t care,” Fu Jing continued.

Tang Ning smiled faintly. She didn’t argue with him but said gently, “You’re right, But when someone brings gifts, it’s still a gesture of goodwill. I can see that Xiaoyu is taking this seriously. A few days ago, he even posted a photo on his WeChat moments. Since that’s the case, getting to know him a bit more can’t hurt.”

Fu Jing couldn’t help but lift his head and, upon hearing the latter part of Tang Ning’s statement, his expression suddenly became somewhat frustrated. “Forget it, he doesn’t acknowledge me as a father anyway. I’m not going to bother.”

Tang Ning sighed and hugged Fu Jing. She whispered, “How can he not acknowledge you? It’s just that the child has grown up and has his own thoughts.”

She looked a bit cautious and paused before saying softly, “Ajing, maybe you should worry less about it.”

Fu Jing was most dependent on her. He occasionally had a bit of a temper but was usually just like a spoiled child. However, when it came to Fu Xiaoyu’s matters, she was, after all, a stepmother. If she tried to meddle too much, Fu Jing might think she was only doing so because she didn’t care as much about Xiaoyu’s relationships. In that case, he would genuinely get angry.

…

On his way back to B City, Xu Jiale received a call from Fu Xiaoyu.

“How did it go?”

Xu Jiale was wearing AirPods while driving and deliberately asked, “What do you mean?”

Fu Xiaoyu was momentarily speechless.

“Don’t worry,” Xu Jiale lazily smiled. “Other than the fact that your father absolutely refused to see me, everything went smoothly.”

“…Is this considered smooth?” Fu Xiaoyu asked gloomily.

“I think it does. Right now, not seeing me is quite normal, especially when he has legitimate concerns, right? I’m doing what I’m supposed to do, no need to rush.”

“Okay,” Fu Xiaoyu said softly on the phone. “Xu Jiale, please come back soon.”

Just a simple sentence, but for some reason, Xu Jiale suddenly straightened up a bit.

He cleared his throat and lowered his voice unconsciously. “Xiaoyu, have you had dinner?”

“Yes.”

“That’s good then. I also grabbed a bite on the way.” Xu Jiale slightly increased his speed as he spoke, “I’ll go back to change clothes, and then we can go to the squash court together.”

Fortunately, it was already evening, and the main roads in B City were not too congested.

After quickly returning home, Xu Jiale took a shower and changed into a gray sports outfit.

In this short amount of time, Fu Xiaoyu had already prepared the rackets, towels, and water bottles. Both of them picked up a bag each and headed out.

While Fu Xiaoyu was driving, waiting at a traffic light, he couldn’t help but smile a bit and said, “Xu Jiale, you didn’t even dry your hair, did you?”

“I’m racing against the clock here,” Xu Jiale laughed. “I can only shake it dry.”

After all, they had to play squash, then go back home, and showering within the time limit was essential. In the end, there was no time to dry hair properly.

After officially moving in with Fu Xiaoyu, he had to manage his time more strictly. It wasn’t that he was busier than before, but because of Fu Xiaoyu’s busy schedule. If he didn’t make the most of every moment, their quality time together would be squeezed.

Thinking back to when Fu Xiaoyu pursued him, he had quite the presence. Back then, he wasn’t as busy with work, had time to wear stylish Ray-Ban sunglasses, and wore flashy Chelsea boots to the office. They went out for dinner together almost every day, with a different restaurant each time.

But now, he had to make a strict schedule even for their intimate moments. Xu Jiale thought that it’s all because he’s an Easy Alpha – someone who could easily be captured once pursued.

With that in mind, Xu Jiale playfully leaned in a bit and flicked some water droplets from his wet hair onto Fu Xiaoyu’s face.

…

Fu Xiaoyu and Xu Jiale had visited this squash court several times before. It was a bit upscale, so it was relatively quiet. The court was well-maintained and quite clean, and since protective goggles were required, Xu Jiale switched to contact lenses.

He had long, narrow eyes, and suddenly taking off his usual glasses made him appear somewhat naive.

Fu Xiaoyu was doing his warm-up exercises on the side, and as he watched, he couldn’t help but let out a small laugh.

“Why are you laughing?” Xu Jiale thought he could read the meaning behind Fu Xiaoyu’s laughter.

Fu Xiaoyu was in a playful mood. Under the tight-fitting workout pants, his ass was round and perky.

Xu Jiale playfully smacked Fu Xiaoyu’s ass with his racket and said, “Fu Xiaoyu, be careful when we’re alone together.”

Fu Xiaoyu’s face turned red from the playful smack, and he looked around to ensure no one was watching before replying, “Xu Jiale, don’t you look quite handsome without glasses.”

“Really?”

He was being flirty.

That’s what Xu Jiale thought.

Xu Jiale, holding the racquet, got a bit carried away. At the same time, he self-critiqued with the words, “Xu Jiale, Easy Alpha.” Then, he continued to fiercely hug the racquet and said, “Talking about this is useless. I must make you submit today.”

After they finished warming up, they didn’t waste any time and picked a red ball to start the game.

The red ball had a bounce just below that of a basketball, so it had a pretty good elasticity. The speed at which they hit the ball back and forth was fast.

Xu Jiale and Fu Xiaoyu engaged in an intense back-and-forth game, and the sound of balls smacking against the walls filled the entire squash court.

Xu Jiale was skilled at this game, and the angle at which the red ball bounced off the wall beneath his racket was exceptionally tricky, keeping Fu Xiaoyu constantly on the move within the court. In no time, they were both sweating profusely.

At the halfway point, Xu Jiale displayed exceptional prowess, leading with a score of four to zero against Fu Xiaoyu.

During the mid-game break, they sat on the ground, drinking water in big gulps, and their cheeks were flushed, clearly tired.

Xu Jiale held a water bottle and sat down next to Fu Xiaoyu, asking with a smile, “Are you going to be shaved bald today?”

Fu Xiaoyu’s chin was still covered in water droplets, and his forehead was glistening with sweat. He wiped his face and looked at Xu Jiale with his round, expressive eyes, asking, “Xu Jiale, will you be more gentle with me when it’s just the two of us?”

Fu Xiaoyu spoke with slightly labored breath, and his request sounded a bit unsteady due to his panting, but it made him look especially cute. Both of them were drenched in sweat, and their pheromones mingled more intensely due to the physical activity, causing Xu Jiale to struggle with self-restraint. He leaned in and kissed Fu Xiaoyu’s warm cheek.

Fu Xiaoyu looked at him, breathing heavily, then turned abruptly and pounced onto Xu Jiale aggressively, straddling the Alpha and returning the kiss.

Xu Jiale held him tightly, discarding the obstructive protective goggles.

The reason they chose squash as their activity was precisely for the intimacy that came from moving around, catching and returning the ball.

Secretive and affectionate.

Just when the two of them were deeply engrossed in the kiss, Xu Jiale’s phone in his sports bag suddenly rang.

“Shouldn’t you answer it?” Fu Xiaoyu asked, hesitating as he clung to Xu Jiale’s neck.

“Uh…” Xu Jiale’s voice was a bit hoarse. He waited for a moment, but the caller on the other end seemed persistent. The phone continued ringing for about ten times without being hung up. So, Xu Jiale finally got up, walked over to retrieve his phone from the bag, and answered it.

He glanced at the screen, paused for a moment, then picked up the call, saying, “Hello? Jin Chu.”

Fu Xiaoyu was momentarily stunned but then sat down seriously, waiting to hear the conversation.

“Yeah,” Xu Jiale said in a low voice, holding the racket in his other hand. “I know, yes, I’ve been in B City recently. When are you both coming back?”

“Okay, let me know before you arrive, and I’ll make preparations. Goodbye.”

After hanging up, Xu Jiale held his phone for a moment.

When he saw Fu Xiaoyu looking at him, he realized that Omega was waiting for him to speak, so he said, “It’s Jin Chu. He took Nanyi on a vacation before, but he’s going back to the country soon.”

“Back to the country?”

“Yes, he comes back every year during the holidays to see both sets of grandparents. But this time, Murong Jingya and Xu Lang are both abroad, so Nanyi just needs to visit Jin Chu’s family.”

Xu Jiale seemed a bit upset, and while he was speaking, he walked to the serving area and switched to a slower yellow ball. He stood alone in front of the wall, hitting the ball against it and said, “But Nanyi hasn’t seen me in a while since the last time, so after coming back from Jin Chu’s hometown, Jin Chu will bring him to city B to stay with me for a few days.”

Fu Xiaoyu remained silent for a while and picked up a racket to join in. They were using slower balls this time, so they played at a slow pace, allowing them to talk in between points.

“So, I…” Fu Xiaoyu hit the ball, but his sentence abruptly stopped.

“Xiaoyu, Nanyi doesn’t know about my divorce from Jin Chu,” Xu Jiale hit the ball hard against the wall, and his voice sounded somewhat urgent as he spoke, “He’s still too young. So when we first divorced, there was an unspoken agreement between me and Jin Chu. Neither of us mentioned the divorce, we just said that Daddy had to stay in the country due to work. So, until now, that’s what he still believes.”

Fu Xiaoyu didn’t immediately respond because Xu Jiale suddenly increased the force of his shots, and he had to keep up with the rhythm, running back and forth.

After a few heavy shots, Fu Xiaoyu fiercely hit the ball against the wall and then said, panting, “Xu Jiale, so this time, will you tell Nanyi?”

The ball hit the wall and then bounced rapidly back towards Xu Jiale.

However, Xu Jiale holding the racket suddenly became distracted for a moment. There was another “bang,” and the ball hit Xu Jiale on the head.

“Ouch!”

Xu Jiale’s racket fell to the ground with a “snap,” and he held his forehead, which had been hit by the ball.
