Chapter 254: Chapter 254 - The deal

Eric was too stunned to speak he had not noticed this small detail. Even when he had shown the books to grandpa wang he had just frowned slightly and handed it to Yuna to check on it and read a few verses for him. Back then he thought that it was because Grandpa could not see well turns out no one could see the yin-yang book without yin-yang eyes.

’How on else did that monk read it? did he have any special method to read this... fuck this is getting difficult,’

Frowning, Eric took a tissue and transcribed the first sentence of the yin-yang book. "Do you see this?" he held up the tissue.

Yuri frowned slightly. The handwriting was quite messy but it was understandable. But he did not reply. ’If he knows I can read this he would just copy that book and give it to me. I can’t have that,’ he shook his head.

"You really can’t see this," Eric gazed at the tissue with a sigh. "Then I can’t help you out. It’s better to go back to your ex-wife," he said in a bitter tone.

"I can’t go back to her because we were never sexual to begin with." Yuri gazed at Eric intensely.

Feeling his powerful gaze Eric lowered his head. ’Why is he explaining this to me now? I don’t need to know...’ his fist clenched under the table. ’They were never sexual? He is lying... Eric you can’t fall for it...’

But if Yuri was saying the truth that would explain why his yang energy was still out of control. When a yang powerful person gets sexual their yang would eventually be shared with their partner. He wouldn’t have had an outbreak so often.

’no... I won’t believe him. I can’t have any hope in this. Yuri and I are not meant to be.’ He cleared his throat. "What else can I do? I’m not omnipotent. Your solutions are limited,"

"You can read the book for me." Yuri smiled softly as he sipped his cup of coffee.

Eric frowned. "I can ask someone to make an audiobook copy of this book if you want."

"That won’t do." Yuri leaned forward slightly. "This is a book of cultivation. I would need someone who understood it to teach me. Eric, my life is in danger. Can you help me?"

The moment he heard his name uttered from his mouth Eric froze. he could not do anything but look at his face, which was similar to his lover Aaron. Tears started to well up. he hurriedly gazed away. "I can’t. I’m a busy person."

"I will work around your schedule. I just need a few hours of your time." Yuri was relentless. Eh did not wish to give up this chance to get close to the young man. from the moment he had woken up from his coma four years ago, he had had that empty feeling in his heart. But after seeing this young man that empty feeling was slowly disappearing.

He wanted to know why this person was so special to him.

Why did this person barge into the hospital ward when he was in a coma?

Why did he save me?

Why did he run away after that?

He wanted to know everything.

Clearing his throat Yuri sat back. "Please. I can give you anything you want. I simply want to live," he put on the saddest face he could muster.

This move melted the young man’s cold demure. Eric slowly nodded. "I... ill let you know when we can meet."

"We can meet up at my home."

"No!" Eric shot up. "Not your home... we... we can meet up here." Eric coughed slightly. "But only for an hour. I finish my work at 4 pm you can find me here. but some days I might be out on a mission so you would have to excuse me."

Bai Yuri finally smiled dazzlingly. "That works." He stood up, adjusting his suit. "Thank you so much, Eric."

Eric paused slightly. "don’t say my name"

"Then how can I call you?"

"just....just don’t Say my name."

"Then I’ll call you master," Yuri stepped up to him, hovering over his small frame.

Eric gazed up at him with a small frown. "don’t call me anything. When I’m done teaching you cultivation you will leave me alone and never appear in front of me. That is the only thing I ask of you,"

Yuri’s smile froze. "Why?"

"You don’t need to know. If you agree to this, I will teach you," Eric walked away without a word.

Yuri was left standing there gritting his teeth. "Fine let’s have it your way,"

He did not storm out as Eric did. he sat down enjoying the tasty treats. To be honest he never enjoyed sweets before but after tasting these treats, he had a feeling he might eventually be addicted.

The familiar waiter came to his table to refill his coffee cup.

"Xiao sha right? Can you tell me more about your head chef, I mean your boss."

The waiter frowned and suddenly leaned down to his height. "If you bother the boss again, I will punch you in the face,"

Yuri gazed up at him with interest. "Your boss just agreed to be my teacher. I will meet him every single day right here~ what can you do?"

Xiao sha gritted his teeth. "Shut up. Do you think you are the only person who is after my boss ah? My boss has a beautiful girlfriend and he does not need you bothering him,"

Bai Yuri stood up adjusting his blazer. "I genuinely don’t care about that. you, the only reason I’m tolerating you is because you look similar to my mum. The next time you talk audaciously to my face, I would not tolerate it." he paused by the door. "And don’t try to separate us."

Little shadow gazed at the back of the man with blazing fury. He had been there when Eric was heartbroken. This man was the reason and yet here he was audaciously putting on his claim to his heart again.

’I will never let you get to him again. Never,’
