The unattainable beauty was driven to depravity and madness by a wicked seed.

A man with a bare chest?

Shen Qinghuai suddenly raised his hand to cover Lu Sui's upper face, while Chen Jingmo frantically covered his phone camera, exclaiming, "What? What? A man! You've got the wrong person!"

Hearing that he had misjudged, Lu Sui angrily pulled Shen Qinghuai's finger away. "I didn't misjudge. He's a man. The background when you video chatted with me before wasn't like this. Whose house are you at? Who is he? What's his relationship with you? Are you dating someone? Do you like guys?"

A series of questions left Chen Jingmo feeling overwhelmed. He reluctantly turned off the camera, saying, "Ahem, I'll talk to you later."

"If you dare hang up, I'm not playing with you anymore tomorrow."

Holy crap?

So heartless?

"...He, he's my boyfriend."

Lu Sui's face turned cold. "He looks fierce."

Shi Qianqiu, who had just put on her shirt and walked over to greet Chen Jingmo's good friend: ...

Chen Jingmo placed his phone flat on the table, put his index finger to his lips and shushed Shi Qianqiu, telling him to be quiet.

"He really is my boyfriend."

How old are you?

"Twenty-four."

"And he's old."

Shi Qianqiu: ...

Chen Jingmo didn't want to discuss this with Lu Sui, especially since both of their boyfriends were listening in, which made her feel awkward and embarrassed. "I'll tell you later."

After hanging up the phone, Shi Qianqiu moved closer to Chen Jingmo, standing behind him. She bent down and enveloped him between the table and her chest, her hands supporting her on the table. Her voice was low and husky, with a unique sexiness that comes with an older man, "My darling, do you also think I'm too old?"

Chen Jingmo blushed at Shi Qianqiu's aura, rested his elbows against his chest close to the edge of the table, leaned forward to create distance between himself and Shi Qianqiu, and shook his head, "I've never felt that way."

The word "never" brought a smile to Shi Qianqiu's eyes. She moved closer again, watching Chen Jingmo's eyelashes tremble, and deliberately brushed her lips against his ear. "My darling knows that I'm not just old, so I won't mistreat you."

Chen Jingmo was completely dumbfounded, stammering, "You you you you you..."

You've been here for ages and still haven't managed to say what follows.

Shi Qianqiu said, "What I mean is that the money and the company are getting bigger and bigger, so we won't mistreat our little darling. What were you thinking about just now, little darling?"

"No, I wasn't thinking about anything—um."

Before Chen Jingmo could finish speaking, Shi Qianqiu was kissed and had his face held by his hands. When the first soft gasp escaped his lips, he suddenly slammed his forehead against the table, covered his face, and his ears turned bright red. "Damn, why are you suddenly so..." So seductive?

It's simply irresistible.

I really love it.

I like it both psychologically and physiologically.

Shi Qianqiu was charmed by Chen Jingmo's reaction and picked him up from the chair. "It's time to sleep, or you won't be able to get up tomorrow."

A few seconds after the video call ended, Lu Sui was still looking at his phone screen when he said, "Chen Jingmo has a boyfriend."

Shen Qinghuai pinched him and hugged him, saying, "Even if he has a boyfriend, we'll still be his good friends."

"Um."

Lu Sui took a bath by himself tonight, rejecting Shen Qinghuai's gaze. He looked at his scars in the mirror, touched them, and found them still ugly. He couldn't understand how Shen Qinghuai could bring himself to kiss him.

He was taking a shower here, while Shen Qinghuai was taking a shower in the guest room. When he returned to the bedroom, he was blow-drying Lu Sui's hair. When Lu Sui wrapped her legs around his waist, he said, "It's late, baby. You're very tired. You should go to sleep."

Even after kissing for so long, Lu Sui's eyes remained devoid of lust, and he naturally saw that Shen Qinghuai's eyes were also devoid of lust. He lowered his eyes and said coldly, "If you're not going to do it, get out."

Shen Qinghuai unplugged the hairdryer while still in that position, put an arm around Lu Sui's waist, and said, "I'll lull you to sleep, fall asleep—"

Do I need to say it a second time?

Shen Qinghuai picked up Lu Sui and placed her on the bed, saying affectionately, "Then I'll give you—".

Before he could even lower his head, Lu Sui kicked him, yelling, "Get out!"

Shen Qinghuai grabbed Lu Sui's ankle, met his cold and indifferent eyes, sighed softly, lowered his head to kiss him, and went to open the drawer to take out the package.

Lu Sui was even more silent than before. Except for his lower abdomen twitching a few times due to muscle tension, he remained silent even when Shen Qinghuai praised him. He kept his face covered with his arm, but he was unusually proactive. When he felt Shen Qinghuai get up, he wrapped his legs around his waist to prevent him from leaving.

Shen Qinghuai used up all his skills and also emptied the box.

Since there's no way to avoid feeling sad, let's use "let it be quick" as a substitute.

The next day at noon, Lu Sui was still sleeping on Shen Qinghuai's chest, his eyes were slightly blue, and Shen Qinghuai was massaging his waist, planning to soak some goji berries later.

Shen Qinghuai's phone lit up twice. He opened it and saw a message from Wen Chengyu asking when he would be coming to class. She said the project would be successfully completed this week, and they all needed to work harder. She also said that Chen Ziqiu wanted him to come to school as soon as possible.

Shen Qinghuai replied that he understood.

"Who are you messaging?"

Shen Qinghuai was startled by Lu Sui's sudden voice and almost dropped his phone. He moved the screen toward Lu Sui and said, "Wen Chengyu."

"The professor must have been unable to contact me, so she asked her to do it."

Shen Qinghuai put down his phone, picked up the thermos from the bedside table, opened it, and held the straw to Lu Sui's lips. "Your voice is so hoarse, drink some water."

"It sounds awful."

"It doesn't sound bad; it'll go back to normal after you drink some water."

Lu Sui bit down on the soft silicone straw and drank half a glass of water in one gulp before feeling a bit better in her throat.

From the moment he woke up until he ate, Shen Qinghuai carried Lu Sui. Seeing that Lu Sui was expressionless and not playing on his phone like a wooden doll, he would tease him by pulling Lu Sui's hair like he was lying to Liu Qiushui. Although he didn't get a slap or a "no," he did hear Lu Sui sigh.

He rested his head on his shoulder and gently rocked Lu Sui in his arms. "Why aren't you saying anything, baby? Look at how furrowed your brows are."

Ding.

The doorbell rang.

It was milk tea that Chen Jingmo ordered for Lu Sui, and Shen Qinghuai also got a share, but one had more ingredients and the other had less.

Shen Qinghuai placed Lu Sui on the recliner on the balcony, brought in the milk tea, inserted a straw, and handed it to him. He wanted to pick him up, but seeing that Lu Sui was texting Chen Jingmo, he sat down on the carpet next to him.

Chen talks too much nonsense: Is anyone next to you?

Lu Sui glanced at Shen Qinghuai, his eyes twitching slightly, and took a sip of milk tea before typing.

Lu Zuzong: No.

Chen talks too much: Really not? What I'm about to tell you is something I don't want anyone else to know.

Lu Zuzong: Yes.

Lu Zuzong: He was sitting on the ground and didn't see us chatting.

Chen talks too much: That's fine then.

Chen is so talkative: The man from last night is called Shi Qianqiu. We grew up together. Anyway, I like him. After going through some things, we got together. That's it. Chen Yunting doesn't know yet. This relationship is currently a secret. Oh right, Chen Yunting divorced Zhan Mingzhu. No, it should be Tan Manxiang. That's her real name.

Chen Jingmo got more and more into typing, and wished he could send Lu Sui a 60-second voice message.

Chen is full of nonsense: That little brat is not Chen Yunting's child at all, but the son of Tan Manxiang and her white moonlight Pang Hua. Pang Hua went to jail for gambling, and after he got out, he found Tan Manxiang and the two of them hooked up!

Chen is so talkative: What's that saying again? Wildflowers always smell sweeter than garden flowers.

Chen is such a blabbermouth: Chen Yunting is rich, handsome, and has a great physique, yet she insists on going after that poor bastard who's been to jail. He's been committing all sorts of evil deeds in the Chen family for years; he deserves it! It's so satisfying!

After venting his frustrations, Chen Jingmo felt much better. He had expected Lu Sui to say he deserved it, but Lu Sui instead asked—

Lu Zuzong: When did you two get together?
