Chapter 267: This Life—The Beginning (VIII)

---

TL: Resonance

    尉勋见识了初号的强大以及机器人的发展前景后, 当即决定以此为基础，建立一座庞大的科技园。尚可作为技术核心和发明者, 拥有极大的自主权和股份配额。

After seeing the power of Chu Hao and the robots development prospect, Wei Xun immediately decided to use it as the basis to build a huge science park. As the core of the technology and inventor, Shang Ke has great autonomy and shares.

    有尉勋的支持，尚可再也不用为资金和设备发愁, 只要专心搞技术研发就行了。

With Wei Xun’s support, Shang Ke no longer need to worry about funding and equipment. He only had to focus on technology research and development.

    为了科技园的事情，尉勋忙得不可开交, 白天基本没有时间和尚可联系，但到了夜晚, 独自入睡时，脑中总会浮现各种纷乱的画面，扰得他心烦意乱，气血翻腾。

Because of the science park, Wei Xun is so busy that he basically has no time to contact Shang Ke during the day. But at night, when he sleeps alone, all kinds of chaotic images always appear in his mind, disturbing his mind and causing his blood to boil.

    拿起手机，尉勋给尚可发了一条短信, 没回。又发一条，还是没回。

Picking up the phone, Wei Xun sent a text message to Shang Ke, but Shang Ke did not reply. Hesent another one, but there was still no reply.

    “该死！”之前是谁跟他保证“以后手机24小时贴身携带，电量充足, 每一条短信都巨细无遗的查看”的？！

“Damn it!” Who was it who promised him he would “keep his phone close to him 24 hours a day, fully charged, and to check every text message in great detail”?!

    床上的手机传来短信的提示音, 初号转了转脑袋，开口道：“可可，来短信了。”

The phone on the bed beeped with a text message, Chu Hao turned his head and said, “Keke, you have a message.”

    “谁的短信？帮我读一下。”尚可趴在工作台上，头也没回地问道。

“Who sent it? Read it for me.” Shang Ke asked while lying on the workbench without looking back.

    初号的电子眼闪烁几下，手机短信自动读取：“‘睡了吗？’”

Chu Hao’s electronic eye flashed a few times, and the phone’s text message was read automatically: “‘Sleeping?'”

    初号直接模拟了尉勋的声音，尚可一听即知。

Chu Hao directly imitated Wei Xun’s voice, and Shang Ke knew as soon as he heard it.

    “要回吗？”初号问。

“Do you want to reply?” Chu Hao asked.

    尚可：“不用理他。”

Shang Ke: “Don’t bother with him.”

    过了一会，又收到第二条短信，初号即时读取：“‘我睡不着，和我聊聊天。’”

After a while, a second text message was received, and Chu Hao instantly read: “‘I can’t sleep, talk to me.'”

    你说聊就聊，上次摸黑爬床的事情他还没消气呢。尚可翻了个白眼，打算无视到底。随即又想到，自己不回短信，那家伙不会又深更半夜地“私闯民宅”吧？

Why do I have to talk to you just because you say to talk? He was still angry at the fact that Wei Xun had climbed onto his bed at night. Shang Ke rolled his eyes and decided to ignore him. Then he thought, if he did not reply to the text message, that guy won’t “break into the house” again at night, right?

    不管会不会，反正尚可不会用自己的节操赌他的节操。

Whether he will or not, Shang Ke will not bet against Wei Xun’s morality with his own morality.

    他倏地站起身，将初号塞进自己背包，然后拿上笔记本，穿上外套，干净利落地走人了。

He abruptly stood up, stuffed Chu Hao into his backpack, then grabbed his notebook, put on his jacket, and left neatly.

    十分钟后，一辆路虎冲进小区，尉勋跨下车，熟门熟路地摸进尚可的家，结果自然是扑了个空。

Ten minutes later, a Land Rover rushed into the neighborhood. Wei Xun got out of the car and familiarly found his way into Shang Ke’s home. The result was that he didn’t get to see him.

    “可可，尉勋来电话了。”手机铃声在酒店房间中回响，初号以为尚可没听到，尽职尽责地提醒。

“Keke, Wei Xun called.” The phone’s ringing echoed in the hotel room. Chu Hao thought Shang Ke did not hear and dutifully reminded.

    尚可一边将初号从背包中抱出来，一边说道：“帮我接通吧。”

While carrying Chu Hao out of his backpack, Shang Ke said, “Put me through.”

    “你在哪？”尉勋的声音听起来不太愉快。

“Where are you?” Wei Xun’s voice didn’t sound too pleasant.

    果然又跑去他家了？不然他应该问“你在不在家”，而不是“你在哪”。呵呵，真是一个“好懂”的男人。

Did he really go to his house again? Otherwise, he should have asked “are you home” instead of “where are you”. Oh, what an “easy to understand” man.

    “云台。”尚可随口报了一个地名，其实他就在小区隔壁的酒店。

“Yuntai.” Shang Ke casually reported the name of a place. In fact, he was in the hotel next to his neighbourhood.

    “怎么突然跑到云台去了？”

“Why did you suddenly go to Yuntai?”

    “看樱花。”

“To see the cherry blossoms.”

    “什么时候回来？”

“When will you be back?”

    “两三天吧。”

“Two or three days.”

    “为什么不回我短信？”尉勋暗想，只要他敢说一句不想回，自己就让他好看。

“Why didn’t you reply to my messages?” Wei Xun secretly thought, if Shang Ke dared to say that he didn’t want to reply, he would make him pay.

    “因为我知道我如果不回，你肯定会跑到我家去。”

“Because I know that if I don’t reply, you’ll definitely run to my house.”

    “……你希望我去？”

“… You want me to go?”

    “是啊，因为我不在家。”

“Yeah, because I’m not home.”

    “……”

“…”

    那边好久没人出声，尚可不用想也知道某人的脸色一定很好看。

There was no sound from the other side for a long time, Shang Ke didn’t have to think about it to know that someone’s face must be very terrible.

    偷笑几声，尚可在某人发飙前开口道：“我明天打算去云台风景区，回头给你带一份礼物？”

Shang Ke laughed secretly for a while and spoke before someone got mad, “I’m going to Yuntai’s scenic area tomorrow. I’ll buy you a gift?”

    听到“礼物”两个字，尉勋刚刚飙起的怒火立刻消散，沉声道：“随意。”

When he heard the word “gift”, the anger that had just flared up in Wei Xun immediately dissipated and he said in a deep voice: “Up to you.”

    “那我就随意选了，到时候你可不要嫌弃。”

“Then I’ll choose at random, don’t be picky when you receive it.”

    “嗯。”

“Mm.”

    结束通话，尚可打开笔记本，登录购物网站，麻利地订购了一件极具云台特色的礼品。

After ending the call, Shang Ke opened his laptop, logged in to the shopping website, and neatly ordered a gift that was very characteristic of Yuntai.

    尉勋重新坐上自己的路虎，心情愉快地回到住处，完全没意识到自己简简单单就被尚可几句先抑后扬的话给安抚了。如果尚可是尉勋的对手派来玩他的，他一定会输得很惨。千百世积累的情感，已经成为灵魂烙印，一旦觉醒便是烈火燎原，渣气爆表，分分钟变成炼肉修罗场。

Wei Xun sat back in his Land Rover and returned to his place in a happy mood, completely unaware that he had simply been pacified by Shang Ke’s carrot and stick method. If Shang Ke was sent by Wei Xun’s rival to mess with him, Wei Xun would have lost badly. The emotions accumulated through many lives have already become an imprint in his soul. Once awakened, it becomes a raging fire, causing an explosion of his scum aura and resulting in a tragic body battle within minutes.

    然而事实证明，尉某人也不是那么好打发的，等尚可退房回家时，发现自己家已经被人搬空了。

However, facts have proven that someone is not so easy to get rid of. When Shang Ke checked out of the hotel and went home, he found that his house had been emptied by someone.

    打电话给尉勋，得到的回复是：“你现在居住的小区，保安措施实在太差了，考虑到技术保密性和你的人身安全，于公于私，我都觉得有必要给你换一个住处。”

He called Wei Xun and the reply he got was: “The security measures in your neighborhood are too poor. Considering the technical confidentiality and your personal safety, for public and private reasons, I feel the need to give you a new place to live.”

    “换之前敢不敢先跟我商量一下？”尚可不介意搬家，但很介意某人先斩后奏。

“Are you not going to discuss with me before moving?” Shang Ke didn’t mind moving, but he did mind that someone had done it before discussing with him.

    “现在商量也不迟啊。我派人接你过来看看你的新家，如果不满意，你随时可以换。”

“It’s not too late to discuss it now. I’ll send someone to pick you up to come see your new home. If you’re not satisfied, you can always change.”

    “……”他所谓的商量，就是“我不管你愿不愿意，但你可以我提供的选择中选择自己喜欢的类型”。

“…” Wei Xun’s so-called discussion meant “I don’t care if you want to or not, but you can choose the type you like from the options I offer”.

    还是欠调教。尚可被尉勋派来的人接上车时如此想着。

He still lacks training. This is what Shang Ke thought when he was picked up by the people sent by Wei Xun.

    尉勋选择的房子是一栋三百多平的复式楼，位于三环以外，距离城中心大约十几分钟的车程。

The house Wei Xun chose was a duplex apartment of more than three hundred square feet, located outside the third ring and about a 10+ minute drive from the city center.

    “看看喜不喜欢？”尉勋将尚可迎进来，带他四处参观。

“See if you like it?” Wei Xun welcomed Shang Ke in and showed him around.

    尚可对这栋小楼还是挺满意的，无论是环境、位置还是装修风格都很不错。更重要的是，这里还配备了一个装有高级安保系统的地下工作室。

Shang Ke was quite satisfied with this small building. Whether it was the environment, the location or the decoration style, they were all quite good. What’s more, it was equipped with an underground studio with an advanced security system.

    小区出入需要身份验证，监控探头全面覆盖，安保级别非常高。

Entering and exiting the neighbourhood requires identity verification, and the security level is very high with full coverage by surveillance cameras.

    考虑到技术的重要性，尚可倒也不觉得尉勋的安排有什么不对。将来实验室成立，所有参加核心项目的人，都会受到严密的保护或监控。

Considering the importance of the technology, Shang Ke did not think there was anything wrong with Wei Xun’s arrangement. In the future, when the laboratory was established, all those who participated in the core projects would be closely protected or monitored.

    “我一个人住？”尚可不相信某人没有任何小动作。

“I live alone?” Shang Ke did not believe that someone did not make any sneaky moves.

    “我就住在隔壁。”尉勋平静道，“你不用另外请保姆，生活上的琐事直接吩咐我的保姆和佣人去做就好了。墙上有呼叫器，保证随传随到。”

“I live right next door.” Wei Xun said calmly, “You don’t need to hire another nanny, just directly order my nanny and maids to do the trivial daily chores. There’s a pager on the wall and they are guaranteed to come when called.”

    尚可探身朝窗外看了看，发现花园左侧有一个拱门，拱门另一边就是尉勋的住处。

Shang Ke looked out the window and found an archway on the left side of the garden, and on the other side of the archway was Wei Xun’s residence.

    嗯，果然是一个“好懂”的男人。

Yeah, he really is an “easy to understand” man.

    尉勋望着依在窗边的尚可，目光在俊秀的侧脸和白皙的颈项上扫过，高大的身躯不自觉倾近，几乎将他完全笼罩在自己的气息之下。

Wei Xun looked at Shang Ke who was leaning against the window, and his line of sight swept past Shang Ke’s handsome side profile and white neck. His tall body got closer to Shang Ke unconsciously, almost completely enveloping Shang Ke under his aura.

    “就这里吧。”尚可突然开口道，“谢谢你帮我找的房子，我很喜欢。”

 “Here then.” Shang Ke suddenly spoke, “Thank you for helping me find the house, I like it a lot.”

    说着，从兜里掏出一个盒子拍在尉勋的胸口，顺势拉开两人的距离：“答应给你的礼物。”

After saying so, he took out a box from his pocket and slapped it on Wei Xun’s chest and smoothly distanced himself from Wei Xun: “The gift I promised to give you.”

    尉勋接过礼物，再抬头时，尚可已经离开他的怀抱，飘然而去。

Wei Xun received the gift, and when he looked up again, Shang Ke had already left his embrace and drifted away.

    他眼神微暗，拆开礼物，首先看见一片闪亮的粉红色，随即才辨认出这是一个印着樱花图案的充满少女气息的钱包。

His eyes darkened slightly. Opening the gift, the first  thing he saw was a shiny pink color, then he recognized that it was a girly wallet with a cherry blossom design.

    这就是尚可从云台给他带回来的礼物？即使再俗气，他也要笑着接受。尉勋僵硬地将钱包从盒子中取出来，发现下面还夹着一张心形卡片，卡片最上方是“五星好评返现金”，紧接着是一个硕大的“3”元……

This was the gift that Shang Ke had brought back for him from Yuntai? Even if it was tacky, he still had to accept it with a smile. Wei Xun took the wallet out of the box stiffly and found a heart-shaped card underneath. On the top most part of the card, there was a “5-star cash back”, followed by a large “3” dollar…

    表情崩裂：“……”

Wei Xun’s expression cracked: “…”

    尉勋目光幽幽地朝尚可的方向瞥去，见他趴在沙发靠背上，只露出一个脑袋，看得乐不可支。

Wei Xun glanced in the direction of Shang Ke and saw him lying on the sofa with only his head exposed and watching with joy.

    “啊，我突然想到一个天才的设计。”尚可一跃而起，风一般地冲向地下工作室，在尉勋发飙之前，严严实实将自己密封起来。

“Ah, I suddenly thought of a genius design.” Shang Ke leapt up and rushed like the wind to the underground studio, locking himself in tightly before Wei Xun could get mad.

    尉勋动了动，最终还是没有追上去，反正来日方长，今天先放他一把。

Wei Xun moved, but ultimately did not chase after him. The future is long anyway, he will let him off today.

    随即又看了看手中的盒子，嘴角抽动几下，然后收入自己的口袋，转身朝门外走去。

Then, he looked at the box in his hand again. The corners of his mouth twitched a few times. Then, he put the box into his own pocket, turned around and walked out of the door.

    尚可正式入住后，立刻给戚辰去了一个电话，告诉他，自己搬家了，并将新家地址发给了他。

After Shang Ke officially moved in, he immediately gave Qi Chen a call, telling him that he had moved and sent him the address of his new home.

    戚辰一看地址就知道是谁动的手脚。

Once Qi Chen took a look at the address, he knew who made the move.

    “可可，你明知道尉勋对你居心不良，为什么还要给他机会接近你？！”

“Keke, you know full well that Wei Xun has bad intentions towards you, why are you still giving him the opportunity to get close to you?!”

    “我们是合作伙伴。”

“We are collaborative partners.”

    “合作伙伴？”戚辰冲口而出，“正常的合作伙伴会上床吗？”

“Collaborative partners?” Qi Chen blurted out, “Would normal collaborative partners sleep with each other?”

    说完之后，戚辰一脸懊恼，恨不得咬掉自己的舌头，却又无法抑制心中的怒火。

After saying that, Qi Chen had a vexed look and wanted to bite off his own tongue, but he couldn’t restrain the anger in his heart.

    犹豫再三，他决定干脆说个明白：“可可，我知道你顾忌尉勋的身份，但是不用担心，他比你更加顾忌。如果被他的家族发现他和男人上床，一定会勃然大怒。我之所以选择沉默，主要是害怕他们为难你。趁事情还没有发展到不可收拾的地步，你尽快和他划清界限，搬过来和我住，我有办法保你周全。”

After hesitating, he decided to simply say it all: “Keke, I know you’re concerned about Wei Xun’s identity, but don’t worry, he’s more concerned than you. If his family found out that he was sleeping with a man, they would be furious. The reason I chose to keep quiet is mainly because I am afraid they will make things difficult for you. Before things go out of hand, you should draw a line with him as soon as possible and move in with me. I have a way to keep you safe.”

    虽然戚家的地位比不上尉家，但在商政两界的影响力也是不可小觑的。尉勋但凡有一点理智，都不会轻易得罪戚家，更不会明目张胆地跑来抢人。

Although the Qi family’s status is not as good as the Wei family, its influence in the business and political world cannot be underestimated. As long as Wei Xun has a sense of reason, he wouldn’t easily offend the Qi family and certainly wouldn’t blatantly come over to steal someone.

    尚可正要说话，突然感觉后颈一热，随即一具身躯贴上了，将他禁锢在双臂间。

Shang Ke was about to speak when he suddenly felt hot on the back of his neck. Then, a body stuck to him, confining him between his arms.

    “戚辰，谁给你的胆子，敢和我抢人？”男人低沉而危险的声音在尚可耳边响起，两只大手顺势探进他的衣中。

“Qi Chen, who gave you the guts to snatch someone from me?” The man’s low and dangerous voice rang in Shang Ke’s ears, and two large hands smoothly probed into his clothes.

    “尉勋。”戚辰咬牙切齿的声音从另一边传来，“你以为自己很了不起吗？只会仗势欺人，强迫别人做不愿意的事。”

“Wei Xun.” Qi Chen’s gnashing of teeth voice came from the other side, “You think you’re very great? You only know how to bully people with your power and force others to do things they don’t want to.”

    “没错，我现在就在强迫别人做不愿意做的事。”

“That’s right, I’m forcing others to do what they don’t want to do right now.”

    “尉勋！”尚可被死死压在窗台上，裤头被粗鲁地扯开，腿间抵入一根炽热的物体。

“Wei Xun!” Shang Ke was pinned down onto the windowsill, his pants were roughly pulled open, and a hot object was pressed between his legs.

    “尉勋，你在干什么？”戚辰怒喝。

“Wei Xun, what are you doing?” Qi Chen shouted angrily.

    “你觉得我在‘干’什么？”尉勋一手钳住尚可拿手机的手，另一手在他腰腹间摸索，咬着他的耳朵低声命令，“不许挂电话，否则我不保证会不会对戚辰做点什么。”

“What do you think I’m ‘doing’?” Wei Xun gripped Shang Ke’s hand which was holding the phone with one hand while his other hand groped Shang Ke’s waist and stomach. He bit Shang Ke’s ear and ordered in a low voice, “Don’t hang up the phone, or I can’t guarantee that I won’t do something to Qi Chen.”

    “……”这股黑化的渣气，尚可觉得自己有些hold不住了。

“…” This blackened scum aura, Shang Ke felt that he could not hold on anymore.

    戚辰气急败坏的吼叫声不断从那边传来。

Qi Chen’s furious roar kept coming from the other end.

    他越是生气，尉勋的动作越是激烈，他要让这个男人彻底明白，可可到底是谁的人。居然敢撺掇可可跑去和他同居，简直就是在找死！

The angrier he was, the more intense Wei Xun’s movements became. He wanted this man to completely understand who Keke really belonged to. How dare he urge Keke to go and live with him, he simply wanted to die!

    “啊！”尚可被尉勋掌握在手上，润滑都没做便强行挤了进来。

“Ah!” Shang Ke was grasped by Wei Xun and got forced in without even lubricating.

    尚可挣脱尉勋的桎梏，猛地将手机扔了出去。咔嚓，通话中断。

Shang Ke broke free from Wei Xun’s shackles and violently threw the phone away. There was a click and the call ended.

    “尉勋，你TM是禽兽吗？”尚可两手撑在窗框上，半个身体都挂在窗外。

“Wei Xun, are you a fucking animal?” Shang Ke propped both hands on the window frame and half of his body was hanging out of the window.

    “让戚辰离你远点。”尉勋撑起他的右腿，用力挺动，“我可以纵容你的一切，但对付敌人，我从不手软，无论他是什么人。”

“Ask Qi Chen to stay away from you.” Wei Xun propped up his right leg and pushed hard, “I can indulge you in everything, but I’m never soft hearted when dealing with an enemy, no matter who he is.”

    “我和谁来往是我的自由！”尚可怒道。这个男人就是学不会尊重是吗？

“Who I hang out with is my freedom!” Shang Ke said angrily. This man just can’t learn to respect can he?

    “其他人我不管，唯独戚辰不行。”尉勋语气坚决。

“I don’t care about other people, but just not Qi Chen.” Wei Xun’s tone was firm.

    “为什么？”

“Why?”

    “我看见他就想弄死他。”

“I want to kill him the moment I see him.”

    尚可：MDZZ！最后一世的轮回诅咒果然强大，某人的渣气被无限激发了……

Shang Ke: Motherfucker! The reincarnation curse of the last world is indeed powerful, someone’s scum aura was infinitely triggered…

    戚辰紧紧握着手机，想象着尚可被迫在男人身下承欢的模样，眼中闪过一抹血色，耳边嗡嗡作响，感觉有些喘不过气来。随即，无数奇怪的画面如潮水般涌入大脑，似乎有一种力量即将突破禁制。

Qi Chen gripped the phone tightly. Imagining the look of Shang Ke being forced to endure pleasure under the man’s body, a murderous look flashed in his eyes. His ears buzzed and he felt breathless. Then, countless strange images flooded into his brain like a tidal wave, as if there was a power about to break through the prohibition.

    “啊——”戚辰抱住自己的脑袋，面目狰狞地跪倒在地。

“Ah—” Qi Chen clutched his head and fell to his knees with a grimace look.
