rebirth of not following the old path

Chapter 12

When it was time for breakfast, Teacher Qiao saw the hickey on Shangru's neck and some red and swollen lips, and knew that Pan Haoqian must have done something bad in the morning.

"Pan Haoqian, why did my son run into our room in the middle of the night last night?" Teacher Qiao said angrily.

"He went to the wrong toilet after going to the toilet." Pan Haogan didn't change his face.

"Then I'll ask him later, why did he go to the wrong place after living for three years?" Mr. Qiao snorted softly.

Pan Haoqian didn't care, and said to Shangru: "Shangru, I'll go out with you later."

"What are you going out for?" Pan Haoqiong on the side put down the newspaper in his hand and asked.

"Joyce and I are going to buy chocolates." Shang Ru said, "And I really want to go out for a stroll."

"Oh, but don't buy too much for him," Teacher Qiao said, "Children can't eat too much sweets."

"Yeah, that's right, then I'll buy less." Shang Ru also felt that Joyce ate too much candy.

"Let's walk there later, the store is very close," Pan Haoqian suggested.

"I don't want my second uncle to follow me!" Joyce came out of her room at some point.

The child's tone was very tough, but it was a pity that no one paid any attention to him.

Teacher Qiao said to Shangru: "When you pass by the gate of the community when you come back, bring me a few bags of potato chips."

"Yes, okay." Shang Ru nodded.

Seeing Shangru's obedient appearance, Pan Haogan couldn't help but pecked lightly on the side of Shangru's face, and said, "Don't worry, eat slowly."

Shangru's face turned red all of a sudden, and then he silently cursed in his heart: I'm not in a hurry.

Seeing that no one was listening to him, Joyce sat down between Pan Haogan and Shangru a little unhappy.

But before his butt touched the chair, he was picked up by Pan Haoqian and thrown to Teacher Qiao.

"Son, come here!" Teacher Qiao felt sorry for his son, "Come and sit with daddy."

Joyce walked over bitterly, and said to Pan Haoqiong, "Dad! Second Uncle always bullies me!"

"How did I teach you." Pan Haoqiong said slowly.

"It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge!"

"That depends on your strength."

Shangru looked at Joyce who was gearing up, and said to Pan Haoqian speechlessly, "Didn't they see that we are here too?"

Pan Haoqian is very fond of the word "we", saying: "It doesn't matter, a gentleman is magnanimous."

Shangru couldn't help answering in his heart: The villain is very tall, so he whispered to Pan Haoqian, "Don't say that about children."

Pan Hao said in a leisurely manner, "Don't worry, the three of them don't know the second half of the sentence."

In fact, Pan Haoqian was not interested in these literati things at first, but he knew that Shangru was almost obsessed with them, so he read some books for Shangru.

"... Teacher Qiao is still a doctor" Shang Ru retorted him.

"His Ph.D. was read in England, and if I remember correctly, he should be teaching art history in your school."

Shangru didn't care about what Teacher Qiao taught before, but now that he thinks about it, he really does.

"Okay, let's eat quickly, and I'll take you out after eating," Pan Haoqian said to Shangru, seeing that Shangru was only talking and didn't move anything at hand.

"Yeah..." Shang Ru picked up the half-eaten sandwich at hand and continued to eat it.

After breakfast, the two big and one small went out.

Pan Haogan was wearing a camel-colored windbreaker. His height of 188cm and outstanding facial features were still conspicuous among the European and American crowd. Shangru felt the eyes of Pan Haogan from all directions in the crowd, and thought that the handsome guy is the focus of the people everywhere!

Thinking of this, Shang Ru slowed down a bit.

"Come here." Pan Haoqian stopped and said to Shangru behind him.

"Didn't I follow?" Shangru hugged Joyce and followed behind him.

"Follow tighter." Pan Haoqian walked up to him and lightly held his waist.

"Don't be like this, I'm still holding the baby in my arms." Shang Ru was very embarrassed when he saw the eyes looking at him from around.

"Yes!" Joyce added.

"I still have to hug when I'm so big." Pan Haoqian said lightly, "Oh, it really is a child."

Shangru felt that this kind of aggressive method was very childish, but Joyce did it.

"I'm not a child." After speaking, Joyce kicked her calf and signaled Shangru to put herself down.

Shangru put him on the ground, took his hand and said, "You can walk by yourself, but you must be led."

Joyce immediately smiled and grabbed Shang Ru's hand, and said, "Okay! My dad also goes shopping with daddy like this."

After hearing this, Pan Haoqian took Shangru's other hand.

Shang Ru was held back by one left and one right, and said with a helpless smile, "You two really deserve to be uncles and nephews."

Pan Haoqian didn't speak, just took Shangru's hand and stuffed it into his coat pocket.

"Send the kid back at noon, how about we go to the British Museum in the afternoon?" After buying chocolates, Pan Haoqian told Shang Ru about his arrangement.

"Okay, I'm just going to have a look." Shangru made this place his must-see when he was doing the guide, "I heard that there are also many collections from China."

"I'm going too!" Joyce protested.

Before Pan Haoqian stopped him this time, Shang Ru said, "Good boy, you will feel bored if you go."

"...but I want to play with you" Joyce fired coquettish shells.

"Be obedient." Shangru raised the chocolate bag in his hand and said, "Otherwise, there will be no chocolate to eat next time."

"Okay," Joyce agreed, pouted.

"Then let's go home now! Brother, can I cook some delicious Chinese food for you at noon today?" Shangru asked gently.

"it is good!"

Pan Haogan, who had been silent all this time, said, "He should call you aunt."

"...What, don't teach children badly!" Shangru said hastily, blushing.

"Why?" Joyce asked curiously after hearing Pan Haogan's words.

"Because..." Pan Hao was interrupted by Shang Ru before he finished speaking.

"Okay! Let's not dwell on this topic, let's go!" Shangru interrupted the only friendly conversation between the two, picked up Joyce and walked forward quickly.

Pan Haoqian shook his head and smiled, the smile in his eyes couldn't be contained.

When I got home at noon, Pan Haoqiong and his wife were not at home. Shang Ru found out only after seeing the note on the table.

Seeing the note, Shangru looked at Pan Haoqian speechlessly and said, "Why don't we go to the museum tomorrow."

Pan Hao hung up the phone in his hand and said to him: "It's okay, the kid can be taken by the nanny."

"That's great!" Shangru said happily, and Pan Hao rubbed his head dryly.

At noon, Shangru made them his specialty fish with pickled cabbage, and Joyce ate it heartily.

After eating, Shang Ru prepared some snacks for Joyce and put them on the table.

"Stay well at home, I'll bring you a cake when I come back at night," Shangru said to Joyce worriedly before leaving.

"Okay!" Joyce was in a good mood when he was full.

Not long after the two came to the museum, Pan Haoqian felt a little regretful, because Shangru either kept staring at the collection to appreciate it, or communicated with the guide. Pan Haogan’s only role was to help translate:

"Haogan, which king of France did he say used this? I didn't hear clearly."

"Medieval Philip VI"

"Oh"

Shangru continued to listen carefully to the lecturer.

"What kind of glaze color is this? She said it too fast"

"Dou Cai in the Ming Dynasty."

"Oh"

Shangru lay on the glass and carefully studied the porcelain in front of him.

"The modern Greek elements of this Elgin marble sculpture are not very obvious. Sure enough, there are quite big differences between civilizations in different eras."

"..."

"What do you think?"

"Um"

Seeing that Pan Haoqian didn't seem interested in this, Shangru said to him: "Haoqian, go sit in the coffee shop outside, there are few people there."

Glancing at the hot commentator beside Shangru, Pan Haoqian said, "It's okay, I'll be with you."

Shangru looked up at the cool man in front of him, thinking that he was willing to do something he didn't like for himself, Shangru felt a little guilty and sweet, couldn't help but kissed him on the face, and then quickly retreated.

Pan Hao was taken aback for a moment, then followed Shangru with a smile.

It was already 07:30 in the evening when we came out of the museum. If it wasn’t for the reason of being hungry, Shangru wanted to stay there until the museum closed.

"Haogan, thank you." Shangru sat in the passenger seat, "willing to accompany me."

Pan Haoqian turned to look at him and asked, "Is it just verbal?"

Shangru understood the banter in his eyes, and blushed and said, "Didn't you give me the actual one?"

"A kiss on the cheek?"

"Etiquette is less important than affection." Shangru said uncomfortably, "Okay, let's go, I'm going to starve to death."

"Then let me see how much affection you have." After finishing speaking, Pan Haoqian flattened Shangru's chair back as much as possible, and put his upper body on Shangru, their lips and tongues intertwined.

Shang Ru wanted to push him away reflexively at the beginning, but Pan Haoqian grabbed his hands and put them on top of his head. Ru put his arms around Pan Haoqian's shoulders, and the two kissed until the air in the car became sweet.

"Huh...ha..."

"Baby, do you want it?" Pan Haoqian pressed his hand on Shangru's lower abdomen, feeling the half-hard little Shangru under his hand, and asked him deliberately.

"I..." Shang Ru actually felt that the nickname 'baby' was not suitable for him, but his weakness was in the hands of others, so he no longer cared about such trivial matters.

Pan Haoqian chuckled, but was interrupted by the sound of his stomach growling.

"It seems that we still can't make it to the end this time." Pan Haoqian lightly pecked Shang Ru's lips, and pulled Shang Ru up, "Get up."

Shangru's mouth was scratched a little by Pan Haoqian, he touched his own mouth: "Hiss!"

"Why do you look like a puppy?" Shangru whispered to himself.

Pan Haoqian saw the slight wound on Shangru's mouth, and licked it closer and said, "Saliva has the function of healing wounds."

Shangru glared at him, but in Pan Haoqian's eyes, his eyes were flowing and his eyebrows were expressive.

Seeing Pan Hao's fiery gaze made his heart tremble, Shang Ru coughed and said, "Drive!"

Returning home after having dinner outside, Shang Ru heard Liu Yinglan's voice as soon as he entered the door. As expected, he walked to the living room, where Liu Yinglan was sitting there talking to Teacher Qiao.

"Auntie" Shangru walked over immediately after changing her shoes.

"Shang Shang, you are back." Liu Yinglan came over and pulled Shang Ru to sit on the sofa, "Let's go to Edinburgh for a trip with the whole family tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?" Pan Haoqian put the things in his hand on the sofa and asked.

"Well, but we will leave tomorrow afternoon, so I will give you time to sleep in"

"Okay, Edinburgh is very famous." Shang Ru also wanted to see it.

"Okay, then it's settled!" Liu Yinglan continued to drag Teacher Qiao to discuss the itinerary, "Come on, Xiao Qiao, let's continue to read this strategy."

Pan Haoqian regretted that he didn't ask Shangru for this night, because Shangru's one-week vacation was spent on this trip, and even Liu Yinglan asked the whole family to sleep on the same Datong bunk on Christmas Eve.

London Heathrow Airport

"Agan, let's go." Liu Yinglan said to Pan Haogan who came to see him off.

"Well, be careful." Pan Haoqian raised his hand to signal Shangru to come over, "Come here".

Shang Ru trotted over and asked, "What's wrong?"

Pan Hao didn't speak, but held Shangru tightly in his arms, and put his head on Shangru's neck, unwilling to let go.

"Okay, didn't we say goodbye at home?" Shangru was also reluctant, but still said with a smile.

"Baby, wait for me." Pan Haoqian still did not let go.

"I've said it many times, don't call me that." Shang Ru was originally just complaining, his voice was soft and warm, but Pan Haoqian heard the meaning of acting like a baby.

"I really don't want you to go, I haven't..."

"Stop talking." Knowing what he was going to say, Shang Ru hurriedly covered his mouth and said, "You have said it many times."

"..." Pan Haogan raised his eyebrows, expressing his innocence.

Shangru lowered his head and whispered, "I'll come to see you during the Spring Festival, and then... that's fine."

Pan Haoqian got the assurance, let go of Shangru graciously, kissed the top of his head, and said: "Okay, take care of yourself, go over quickly."

"Ok!"
