BL - One Night In Pingjing

Xuan Tianyi threw him a glance and rapidly looked away. He couldn"t be bothered to look at Tan Yao. Although he couldn"t say he disliked him, he also couldn"t say he was fond of him.

Tan Yao didn"t seem to be bothered by the silence Xuan Tianyi gave him. "You"re Xuan Tianyi, right?"

"What?" Xuan Tianyi straightened his back and asked with creased brows. He was bothered that "this guy" knew his name.

"It"s not like that," Tan Yao quickly intercepted. "I just overheard President Hua say it when he was talking to your sister."

Xuan Tianyi relaxed. His relaxation was short-lived though as Tan Yao continued, "Xuan Tianmei, isn"t it?"

Xuan Tianyi kept mute. Annoyed.

"Are you guys having a fight?" Tan Yao persisted.

"Can you mind your own business?" Xuan Tianyi was now trying hard to control his temper.

"Calm down," Tan Yao raised his hands in surrender to show he wasn"t trying to start a fight. "I just wanted to say that I live in a two-bedroom apartment—"

"So?" Tan Yao interrupted him.

"My roommate just moved out and—"

"So?"

"For f.u.c.k"s sake, will you stop interrupting me?"

Xuan Tianyi smiled a little. He had finally managed to upset Tan Yao a bit.

Tan Yao continued, "Since my roommate moved out, I have a free room."

Xuan Tianyi waited for him to continue. As he didn"t, he asked, "Your point?"

"Well, you know…" Tan Yao made a gesture with his right hand to show that he was expecting Xuan Tianyi to understand.

Xuan Tianyi stared at him blankly.

Tan Yao sighed and continued, "In case, you need a place to stay."

Xuan Tianyi raised his brow. He had never really thought about that before. He couldn"t imagine there was ever a time when he didn"t stay with Xuan Tianmei. That might be a nice change of pace. "I don"t. Thanks."

"Why not?" Tan Yao was puzzled. He had imagined Xuan Tianyi would jump at the offer.

"Because I don"t," Xuan Tianyi shrugged his shoulders.

"So you want to continue living with your elder sister at this age?"

"She"s not—" Xuan Tianyi controlled his temper and decided to change his approach. "Did your roommate move out because he couldn"t stand you?"

"No," Tan Yao smiled. "He moved out because he had to go study abroad." Calmly, he asked, "Do you have a problem with me?"

"Not really," Xuan Tianyi shrugged. "I just don"t like your face."

Tan Yao smirked. "It"s very pretty, isn"t it?"

Xuan Tianyi couldn"t argue with that, so he continued, "Or your att.i.tude."

"It"s very lax, isn"t it?" Tan Yao asked, still smirking.

"Can you not talk to me?" Xuan Tianyi raised his voice a little.

"You"re talking to me. It would be rude to not reply you." Tan Yao said in a matter-of-fact manner.

Xuan Tianyi didn"t reply. He just sighed.

"Think about the apartment, will you?" Tan Yao asked.

"Nope," Xuan Tianyi replied.

"Why not?"

"I don"t have any money."

"That"s okay. You can owe me."

Xuan Tianyi raised a brow, "Aren"t you renting because of money?"

"No. I"m renting because I hate staying alone."

"I see…" Xuan Tianyi said, thoughtfully.

"So?"

"Let me think about it."

Tan Yao wasn"t satisfied with that reply. "You know what?" He asked. "Let"s leave here and go check out the place."

"Oh!" Xuan Tianyi said. "Now?"

"Yeah. But let"s meet Zhang Lin first to ask if it"s okay to leave."

"Okay."

"So, do you need anything to get started?" Hua Zhendan asked Su Yang.

"An apartment close to his. And his phone," she replied.

"Why do you need his phone?" Hua Zhendan asked.

"My team and I would install a tracking software in it so that even when I can"t see him, I"ll know where he is."

"Okay. So, how are you going to get his phone?"

"I"ll have my team waiting outside the building. We"ll organize a quick theft and take the phone. Then we"ll install the software and return the phone. I"ll just need you to distract him the whole time so—"

"Just take this and do your thing," Hua Zhendan gave Su Yang a new brand new Huawei smartphone.

She stared at it. "Is this his?"

"I was going to give it to him. Just do your thing and return it."

Su Yang said with a sly smile on her face, "Well, it"s nice working for you, isn"t it?"

Hua Zhendan"s reply was a stoic expression that almost said, "Strike One."

"Fine. I just need the phone"s IMEI number," she drew out a notepad and scribbled the IMEI number on it, then returned the phone to him.

"I"ll let you know when I have the apartment."

"Alright."

"Anything else?"

"Nope."

"Bye then."

"I can"t leave now."

"Why not?"

"I have a feeling one of the people talking to your secretary is someone you wouldn"t want to see me."

"What? Who?"

Hua Zhendan walked outside his office and saw Tan Yao and Xuan Tianyi laughing with Zhang Lin. He was impressed by Su Yang"s exceptional hearing. All three of them went quiet immediately they noticed his presence.

"What are you two doing here?" Hua Zhendan gestured to Tan Yao and Xuan Tianyi.

Xuan Tianyi nudged Tan Yao with his shoulders, prompting him to speak. A gesture that greatly irritated Hua Zhendan. How did they get so close in such a short time?

Tan Yao spoke up, "Emm… Big brother Hua, we were going to ask if it was okay to leave."

"Where are you two going? Together!" Hua Zhendan asked.

"Emm..." Tan Yao cleared his throat. "To my place."

Hua Zhendan frowned, "What"s going on at your place?"

"Well, He…" Tan Yao pointed at Xuan Tianyi, "Needs a place to stay and I—"

"If he needs a place to stay," Hua Zhendan interrupted Tan Yao. "There"s a dormitory for models. He can stop at HR and ask for one. He"ll be sorted out in minutes."

"I—" Xuan Tianyi started to say.

"You can"t live together," Hua Zhendan said. Staring at the two puzzled faces staring at him, he added for clarification, "It"s against company"s policy."

"Why?" Xuan Tianyi asked, but Hua Zhendan ignored him.

Turning his attention to Tan Yao, Hua Zhendan said, "Tan Yao. If you"re not busy, I"d like to take you out this evening. To celebrate your new job."

"Thank you, sir." Tan Yao said with a big smile on his face.

"What about me?" Xuan Tianyi asked.

Hua Zhendan stared at him in contemplation. "You can come if you want, but I"ll suggest you go to H.R to have your room thing sorted out."

Without waiting for Xuan Tianyi"s reply, Hua Zhendan turned and walked back into his office

Xuan Tianyi sighed, turned and walked away as well. Leaving Tan Yao behind.
