My Boyfriend Is A Dragon

Panda Novel

“Wow, how exciting! Is Li Xiu into this?” Sun Fei sat on the bar stool and exclaimed.

“Shut it! What did Xiao Xu say?” Xu Lan glared at Sun Fei as he asked.

“Uh, not only that he’s away, the driver isn’t there too,” replied Sun Fei.

“Even Lao Liu is gone?” Xu Lan was in deep thought. He squinted his eyes and threw the room card at Sun Fei, who jumped away at the sight of it.

“Hey, how could you do this to me? Moreover, this is for you. I’m not as good-looking as you are…”

Sun Fei raised his head and noticed how well-built Xu Lan was. He corrected himself immediately, “I’m not as buff as you are!”

“Didn’t I send you to get someone here? Did you bring the voice recorder pen?” Xu Lan rolled his eyes and retorted.

“Oh yes, I did! Someone, here? Hmm, that wouldn’t be appropriate, would it?” Sun Fei tossed the voice recorder pen over and teased Xu Lan.

“Scram! Are you done with your sick thoughts yet?” Xu Lan raised his foot and gave Sun Fei a kick.

“Heh, I’ll go get someone now. Beware, even though I did tell you to find a new partner, but this…” Sun Fei said as he shook his head, insinuating that he would not agree to the marriage between Li Xiu and Xu Lan.

“Go away!” Xu Lan tried to kick Sun Fei. After successfully dodging Xu Lan’s kick, Sun Fei left cheerfully to call for help.

After picking up the room card from the floor, Xu Lan straightened his clothes up and walked up with determination.

The carpeted hallway was like a magnet that weighed Xu Lan’s feet down; every step he took was an ordeal. He wondered if this hallway lit by dim lights will lead him to the truth.

Knock, knock.

The room door was opened immediately. Li Xiu was clothed in a bathrobe, his hair was still dripping wet. Xu Lan could almost see his sunken stomach.

“Haha, please come in,” Li Xiu made way for Xu Lan and asked, “what would you like to drink?”

“No thanks, let’s focus on our main task,” Xu Lan took a seat and reached for the smoke. He retracted his hands sheepishly after a while.

“Haha, that works too. You can ask me anything and I’ll have my condition fulfilled. How about that?” Li Xiu offered him a glass of wine and waited for his question patiently.

“Your injuries healed completely?” Xu Lan found it hard to believe that a normal person with two broken ribs could head out and have fun the next day.

“Not completely, but almost. Would you like to examine my injuries?” Li Xiu stood up and tried taking off his bathrobe.

“There’s no need for that! Qiu Ling is dead,” said Xu Lan immediately. Qiu Ling passed away last night. Seeing how Li Xiu had almost recovered, Xu Lan wondered if it was possible that Li Xiu was the culprit. Could Li Xiu be toying with them all these while?

“Ah, what a shame. Didn’t it take us a lot of effort to nail down the suspect? Is this what you’re here for, to tell me about it?” Li Xiu replied curiously after a brief moment of frustration.

“You’re aware of Bai Wu’s existence?” Xu Lan shirked away from Li Xiu’s inquisitive gaze and voiced the question that he had been wanting to ask for a long time.

“Yes, back when we first met. Would you consider that as early?” Li Xiu smiled. Without his suit and leather shoes, he gave off a licentious vibe.

“When was the first time that you saw me? Jingxinyuan?” Xu Lan was not used to Li Xiu’s casual attitude. He tossed the bolster at him and said, “Stop being so lecherous around me.”

“Haha, I’m doing this for you. If you can’t get used to this now, what’s going to happen when the lights are off?” Li Xiu teased Xu Lan relentlessly.

“If this is why you invited me here, I’m sorry, I’ve got no time for your gibberish!” Xu Lan stood up and walked over to Li Xiu. Xu Lan attitude caught Li Xiu off guard. He did not expect the latter to be so uptight to the point that he could not take a joke. Li Xiu was amused and could not help but to chuckle.

“Please tell me why are your fingerprints on the curtains from Jingxinyuan. The last time we were there, I was the one who passed you the gloves.”

“Fingerprints?” Li Xiu laughed, “do you remember the other time when Bai Wu talked to me? He’s so proud even though he’s young. I had to teach him a lesson and I might’ve left my fingerprints behind back then.”

“You! How come Bai Wu didn’t tell me about this!” Xu Lan was trying to get more information from Li Xiu, but he did not expect to find out about something like this. Bai Wu had never mentioned about this before.

“There’s no way that he would tell you about. How embarrassing must it be for him to be taught a lesson after failing to threaten me?” Li Xiu snickered as he remembered how proud Bai Wu was.

For some reason, Xu Lan yearned to see Bai Wu. The lovable little thing had always threaded gingerly, to the point that he held his tongue after being bullied by an outsider. So what if he was all grown up now? This was inevitable and he merely sped up the process.

“One more thing, is Lao Liu really your driver and personal doctor?” Xu Lan’s last question was completely irrelevant. After Li Xiu answered affirmatively, Xu Lan left without turning around.

“Aren’t you worried that I’ll rat Bai Wu out?” Li Xiu asked slowly as he looked at his nails.

“Why did you wait till today if you knew how Bai Wu looked like since day one? What kind of man would land such a low blow? Do you really think my hands are tied around you? It’s your call whether you want to tell the world about it. I’m heading back now.”

Xu Lan was grinding his teeth as he spoke.

“Prior to this, I thought you were still in the dark. Brother Lan, what did the animal charm you with? If you promise me to cut contact with the animal, I’ll let our deal slide. It’s not my intention to make a big fuss out of this too.” Li Xiu stared at Xu Lan with great pain, hoping that he would come around.

“No way! Bai Wu is my son! Are you persuading me to abandon my son? Li Xiu, I don’t know what you’re scheming for, but you’re not having your way with me! So long as I’m around, Bai Wu will be safe and sound!” Xu Lan retorted angrily as he took a few big breaths.

There was no use reasoning with someone like Li Xiu. After capturing the murderer within these seven days, he would depart for another dimension with Bai Wu. All he needed to do was to make sure that Bai Wu was not captured within said period of time. Xu Lan was relieved and he took bigger steps too.

He was not keen to have anything to do with this lunatic!

“Do you think you can leave?” Li Xiu toyed around with the keychain in his hand and walked toward Xu Lan with a cold smile.
