Model worker and his little darling

Heiji saw a photo of Gin when he was a child. He picked it up and saw that he was about two or three years old. Little Gin had a serious face and short hair. He looked cute and instantly won Heiji's heart.

I glanced up at Gin next to me, and thought, "Hmm, little Gin is cuter."

"Oh no, Koto-chan~, I think I liked you more when you were little."

Gin's face darkened, and he reached for the photo in Pingqing's hand. Pingqing chuckled and placed the gift box in Gin's hand, saying, "Take it. I'm not giving you the photo."

After saying that, he kissed the photo and walked outside.

Gin grabbed Hirakiyo by the collar. "Put the photos away. We'll look at them when we get back."

He never expected that the boss had a photo of him when he was so young, and he wondered how he would face his children in the future.

Pingqing stuffed the photo into his pocket, opened his arms and looked at Gin, "Now that you've found it, it's yours."

Seeing Pingqing's smug look, Gin knew it was impossible to get the photos back now. He reached out and pinched Pingqing's face, saying fiercely, "I'll deal with you when we get back."

"You dare? Believe me or not, I'll make sure this photo is circulated all over the base."

Hmph, he was just fooling Gin. He wouldn't want anyone else to see such a cute Gin.

Gin's eyes widened, then he suddenly smiled. "You won't."

Then he handed the car keys to Pingqing, saying, "Go drive."

Pingqing took the keys, remembering that Gin had driven there when they arrived. "Fine, fine, I'll go. What can I do? I like you, what can I do? I love you..."

Seeing Pingqing walking ahead, shaking his head and muttering to himself, Gin followed behind Pingqing in a good mood.

Karasuma Renya and Rum stood by the window watching the two bickering and walking away, and both found it somewhat amusing.

"I never imagined that Gin would have such a... um... lively day."

After listening to Rum's words, Karasuma Renya nodded. Indeed, Gin was someone he had watched grow up, and he always had a cold and aloof demeanor. If he could take action, he would never say a word more.

Now, nourished by love, her icy exterior has melted away, and she's become more down-to-earth.

"They're still just kids, let them do what makes them happy."

Karasuma Renya shook his head with a smile. Taira no Kiyoshi and Gin were both under 20 and under 30, respectively, and neither of them were even a fraction of his age.

Rum looked at Karasuma Renya curiously, "Boss, when did you realize something was wrong with them?"

Karasuma Renya stroked his chin. "It seems that Kodaira Kiyoshi really developed feelings for Gin after regaining his memories. I didn't notice it at first, but when I checked the base's surveillance footage, I noticed that Kodaira Kiyoshi's gaze towards Gin was occasionally strange."

"As for Gin, I think it was when he dealt with the traitor that Kiyoshi Kodaira rushed over to save him, and that's when he fell for him. Later, Margot came to Japan, and Kiyoshi Kodaira got into a fight with him in a bar. Gin went to pick them up, and Kiyoshi Kodaira pounced on Gin. After that, the two of them started getting all lovey-dovey."

Rum stared at Karasuma Renya in shock. He hadn't expected his boss to know so much detail, and most importantly, to have known so long ago. Was he watching the two of them on the security cameras all day?

As if knowing what Rum was thinking, "Indeed, after I noticed something was off with Kodaira Kiyoshi, I kept an eye on them, wanting to know how things would develop. As it turns out, I was right; they ended up together. Now all those rumors at the base have become true."

Wow, the boss is definitely the biggest gossipmonger.

Rum sighed inwardly, "Old foxes are indeed shrewder."

When they were discussing assassinating Shigehiko Tonguchi, he vaguely sensed that Gin was paying more attention to Taira, but then he remembered that the two of them had been like that since childhood, so he didn't think much of it.

Later, when he asked Hirayoshi to do some work, Gin sent him several messages asking him to release Hirayoshi. It wasn't until Hirayoshi was injured and saw Gin's violent behavior that he realized there was something going on between them.

"Vermouth doesn't know yet, but once she finds out, Kiyoshi Kodaira will be in big trouble."

Hearing the BOSS's gloating tone, Rum clicked his tongue and said, "BOSS, let me know if there's any progress later."

He also has to deal with the organization's affairs, but the BOSS is idle all day long and checks the base's surveillance footage whenever he has nothing to do, so he must know a lot of inside information.

"Ah."

The two continued gossiping about Heikichi and Gin.

Pingqing was also curious about what the two old foxes left in the house would say, so he kept the system in touch. As it turned out, he overheard the two old men gossiping about them.

I slammed my hand on the steering wheel, so angry! I'll have to be extra careful at the base from now on. I didn't expect the old man to be watching them so early.

However, it was indeed after he regained his memories that he truly fell for Gin, and his feelings for Gin changed.

Before that, he could suppress his emotions and follow Gin around causing trouble.

But that night he saw Gin's worry for him; even when Gin's hands were bleeding from his grip, Gin didn't let go.

After that, all he wanted was Gin, so he started flirting with Gin.

He glanced at Gin in the back seat and smiled slightly.

He succeeded; Gin is now his.

Tsk, I didn't expect the old man to have noticed even this.

Seeing the changing expressions on Hirai's face, Gin asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

“I’m angry. I feel like someone is talking about us behind our backs.”

Gin:......

He always felt that the child sometimes acted strangely and had some mental problems. Could it be that the hypnosis and brainwashing he experienced when he was a child had left him with aftereffects?

Gin silently pondered whether he should take Taira to get a proper check-up.

Upon arriving at the safe house, Pingqing immediately collapsed onto the sofa; driving was exhausting.

Gin sat down next to Heikichi and touched his face. "Tired?"

"Um, Gin-chan~, I'm so tired, my hands are sore." She said, stretching her hand out to Gin.

Gin looked at the hand in front of him. The fingers were long, slender, fair, and with distinct knuckles. It would definitely look good with the ring given to him by the BOSS.

He then took Pingqing's hand and kissed it, pulled her into his arms, and whispered in her ear, "Beautiful hands."

Heijiro looked at the two hands intertwined. Gin's hands were a little bigger than his, with calluses on his fingertips, but otherwise they were about the same size as his hands.

"Your hands are beautiful too."

After saying that, Pingqing opened the gift box and took out two rings.

They look the same, with vine-like patterns carved on the outside and words carved on the inside.

Upon closer inspection, Pingqing noticed that their names were written inside, 'Gin\u0026Hine', followed by a crow.

Pingqing stared at the crow pattern, feeling as if he had seen it somewhere before.

"This is the BOSS's family crest."

"The old man's family crest? Where did I see that?"

I took the ring from Gin's hand and looked at it. It said 'Hine\u0026Gin' inside, and everything else was the same.

Seeing that Hirakiyo was still thinking about the family crest, Gin ruffled Hirakiyo's hair. "If you want to know, go ask the boss."

"Forget it, it's not important."

Gin picked up the ring engraved with 'Hine\u0026Gin', kissed it, and then carefully put it on the ring finger of Hirai's left hand.

"Royal Deer, you belong to me."

Looking at Pingqing's hands, Gin smiled. Just as he had expected, they were very beautiful.

Seeing this, Heikiri followed Gin's example and put a ring on Gin's finger.

Then I took out my phone and snapped a few photos, sending them to the old man. Since he loves gossip so much, I'll let him see as many as he wants.

It looks great, I'm glad you like it.

Seeing the old man's instant reply, Pingqing curled her lips, thinking that the old man was not serious.
