Python Starter Guide Chapter 7

Disclaimer: I decided to do a rough trans to share with you guys. I am working on this alone so it may not be 100% and there may be a better version out there. Nevertheless, enjoy!

Later that morning, the development manager held a meeting with Shou and the other programmers in their team. He said that the project with XX company has been confirmed and they would to start work on it.

“The other party has required for everyone to work on-site at their office. So for the next half of the year, everyone can work at a luxurious office building, haha.”

After saying, the development manager thought he was humorous and laughed but the programmers were all indifferent.

Shou was completely silent due to shock.

After work at night, Shou quickly packed his bag and sneakily went down. As such, he did not see the familiar large Land Rover parked infront of the entrance.

Shou took one of the sharing bicycles. But after cycling halfway, his a.s.s hurt. He had no choice but to get off and walk.

He spent half an hour walking home. Saw that Gong was not waiting at his house's entrance. Shou was surprised. He did not expect Gong to pay attention to his words this morning.

He called Gong to confirm if he wasn't coming tonight but no one ever picked up.

Shou closed his eyes and laid on the bed. His mind was a mess. First it was the codes that he did not finished today. Next, the codes was reorganized and turned into Gong's face.

Shou was unable to tell what he was feeling now. It was not considered disappointment but at the same time, he did not feel pleasant.

He thought that Gong probably had other men.

The next day, Gong went to the party's office. The one who greeted them was the project manager.

Shou sat at his a.s.signed seat and looked left and right. In the end, he could not resist and pretend to casually ask, “Why did I not see that Director Fu of yours today?”

The project manager replied, “Director Fu went on a business trip yesterday. Heard he will be back two days later.”

“Oh. So it is like that.” Shou nodded his head, his heart immediately felt more relaxed.

Shou sent a WeChat message to Gong, very formally telling Gong that his team had arrived on-site.

Gong's fast reply was beside the point,

Gong: Miss me already?

Shou's heart jumped. At once, he held his phone and went to hide in the pantry. His fingers ‘pa da pa da' slammed on the screen as he typed.

Shou: I was just reporting about my work!

Gong: Just report to the project manager. There is no need to bypa.s.s ranks.

Shou was speechless from that remark.

Gong then sent another text.

Gong: I am not around these few days. You know the pa.s.scode to my door lock. Go there by yourself to stay.

Shou: Why should I stay at your house?

Gong: So you are willing to take a more than an hour long train ride to work everyday?

Shou: I will think about it.

The high-end residential area that Gong lived in was just two subway stations away from his company. After work, Shou went straight to Gong's house and it only took slightly more than ten minutes. It was more convenient than travelling to and fro back to his own place.

Shou thought that this f.u.c.k buddy was quite a good deal.

The other time Shou was at Gong's house, he only did 2 things – ate lobster and got himself eaten up. He did not had the chance to take a good look around Gong's house.

This time, Shou took a good look inside and out, and found that the man was quite organized. His things were all arranged neatly.

Shou also tried to look for any things that may have been left behind by previous f.u.c.k buddies but there was not even a single trace.

Shou went to a supermarket outside the area and bought a cup, towel, toothbrush and slippers. He went back to the house and as he was unpacking, his heart felt a little troubled.

He did not know if other f.u.c.k buddies would live together but according to his situation now, he did not feel like they were f.u.c.k buddies with a contract, but more like a couple living together.

After thinking about it, Shou sent a WeChat message to Gong to inform him that he had bought some household necessities to put at Gong's house and hoped he would not mind.

When Gong received the message, he replied: No problem.

Shou thought about it and could not resist asking one more question: Do you always let your f.u.c.k buddies stay in your house?

Gong: No.
