Xie He never dreamed that he would hear those kind of words. He looked at Zhou Yizhe in disbelief, eyes full of anger to the point of spitting out fire, “What did you say?!”
Zhou Yizhe did not respond to this question. He lightly glanced over with faint contempt, “Have you done it with Zhou Yian recently?”
“No…….” Xie He regretted it as soon as he responded. Why did he have to answer such a question from Zhou Yizhe? In a fit of resentfulness, he immediately said “What does this have to do with you?!”
“Why won’t you do it with him? Aren’t you two lovers?” Zhou Yizhe continued to inquire.
“I said that this has nothing to do with you!” Xie He’s voice trembled.
“Of course this has something to do with me,” Zhou Yizhe’s eyes flickered upwards. His sharp gaze fell onto Xie He’s body. “I helped you conceal the truth that day, so I have to be responsible for you. Since you and him haven’t been doing it, then I should examine you to make sure that you haven’t been fooling around with other men.”
“You……you’re spouting nonsense!” Xie He’s chest heaved up and down, and his face was flushed from humiliation, “I-I’m not that kind of person…..”
“Whether or not I’m saying nonsense, naturally, we’ll only know once we see your body,” Zhou Yizhe’s voice was calm from beginning to end.
“I refuse this kind of irrational request! If this was why you called me here, then I think that I should leave now!” Xie He said coldly. Even he had a temper.
“That’s fine,” Zhou Yizhe’s appearance did not change at all, “Since you refuse my good intentions, then I can only let Zhou Yian know. Come to think of it, he’s still your man. It’d be more reasonable to call him over to take charge of you.”
“You—” Xie He raised his hand, pointing at the other man. He was so angry that he was rendered speechless.
“Before you leave here, you should think over it carefully. Choose to let me inspect your body, or choose to let Zhou Yian know the truth. Let him know that you are the kind of trash that had messed around with his elder brother,” the corner of Zhou Yizhe’s lips raised into a sneer.
Xie He sucked in a breath of cold air. He wanted to escape from here immediately, but Zhou Yizhe’s words stabbed at his weak spot.
He was frozen in place for a moment. He couldn’t leave, but he couldn’t stay either.
“Hurry up. My time is precious,” Zhou Yizhe said coldly. After he spoke, he probably felt that he had been too strict, so he eased up his voice a bit and patiently said, “I’m just taking a quick look. Since you haven’t done anything to be ashamed of, what are you afraid of?”
“You’re just……going to take a look? Xie He repeated his words in a mumble. A look of wavering flashed in his eyes.
A long time later, he slowly raised his hands. His fingertips landed on the b.u.t.tons of his s.h.i.+rt……He held this position for a long time. Finally, Xie He gritted his teeth and looked at Zhou Yizhe. However, he discovered that Zhou Yizhe’s expression had changed. It became very gentle, just like when they had eaten a meal together yesterday. His expression seemed to be filled with infinite patience, as tranquil as the ocean.
This kind of expression comforted him. It was just a look……it should be fine, right?
For the sake Zhou Yian, he just needed to bear with this.
Xie He slowly undid his b.u.t.tonsk2026;k2026;then, the s.h.i.+rt fell onto the ground.
Xie He felt ashamed being watched by another man like this. He awkwardly stood in place, turning his head away as he didn’t dare to look at Zhou Yizhe’s expression.
Quite a while later, he heard a deep voice command, “Continue.”
Xie He turned his head back in disbelief.
“Continue,” Zhou Yizhe repeated with a rare patience. His appearance was calm and collected. With a tone that implied that this was only proper and expected, he said, “You’ve only taken off half of it. How am I supposed to see?”
Xie He’s expression was embarra.s.sed and resentful. He took several deep breaths to calm himself down.
Fine. In any case, he had already taken half of it off. To let another man have a look wouldn’t hurt. This kind of “smas.h.i.+ng the already cracked pot” thinking made it less difficult to bear. He closed his eyes and took off his pants all at once. He then spoke in a m.u.f.fled voice, “This should be fine, right!”
The youth only had a pair of underwear left on his body. It was just a common pair of white, cotton briefs. There wasn’t any appeal at all. However……in Zhou Yizhe’s eyes, this kind of body was a scrumptious feast. Every part of him seemed to have been perfectly sculpted by G.o.d himself.
Zhou Yizhe’s adam’s apple lightly bobbed, and his line of sight slowly moved downwards.
He really wanted to take the youth for himself directly, but reason prevented him from doing so in the end.
【444：Ding. The target’s Favorability Value +5. The current Favorability Value is 75.】
“Come closer,” Zhou Yizhe’s voice was hoa.r.s.e, “You’re too far so I can’t see clearly.”
Xie He hesitated, then moved a bit closer.
Zhou Yizhe’s expression was dark. He curled his fingers slightly, then suddenly pulled the youth over.
Xie He, who was pulled, stumbled. Immediately after, there was a slightly cool sensation on his lips.
Xie He looked at Zhou Yizhe’s intimate appearance in shock. For a split second, his brain malfunctioned.
Zhou Yizhe……unexpectedly had kissed him! When they were both sober!
“Wu……” Xie He was confused for a moment. Soon after, he came back to his senses. No, this was wrong. How could he kiss Zhou Yizhe!
Xie He’s eyes shone with an indignant light. It was clear that he had been played with! He bite down with force!
Zhou Yizhe perceived the incoming danger and speedily retreated. However, the tip of his tongue was still lightly nipped. It hurt a bit, as if it had been p.r.i.c.ked by a needle.
Xie He took advantage of this to escape from Zhou Yizhe’s arms. He forcefully wiped his lips and gathered his clothes at lightning speed. Then he glared at Zhou Yizhe, “B*stard!”
Zhou Yizhe gently curled the tip of his tongue in his mouth and forced a smile, “Although I’m a bit apologetic, what I want to say is that if it wasn’t for you enticing me, I wouldn’t have done that sort of thing.”
Xie He felt angry but also found it laughable, “I enticed you?”
“Yes,” Zhou Yizhe’s voice was certain, and he swept a ridiculing glance at Xie He, “You stood in front of me, bare naked. I’m a normal man. To have a reaction is very normal.”
“You asked me to do it!” Xie He growled, irritated like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
“Oh, so you strip if I tell you to strip,” Zhou Yizhe smiled and looked at him profoundly, “Just like before, when another person tells you to drink wine, you drink it. Is it that you’ll obey anything a man orders you to do? I think that this isn’t my fault, but yours.”
Xie He was stupefied by this kind of shameless argument!
“I won’t believe anything you say anymore!” Xie He thought for a long time before fiercely spitting out this sentence and left immediately!
Zhou Yizhe looked at Xie He’s departing back. His lips slowly exposed a smile as he recalled the taste of Xie He’s lips. He felt his own lips, his expression infinitely deep.
【444：Host dada, the target’s Favorability Value is already 75! It’ll soon be 80】
【Xie He: En.】
【444：Host dada, you don’t seem happy at all! 】
【Xie He：What’s next to comet won’t be this easy. 75 point is still not enough for him to have an acrimonious falling out with Zhou Yian over me. To be able advance to the next stage would require a good opportunity. 】
【444：( ⊙ o ⊙ ) Ah! What should we do then!】
【444：Wait a minute! Σ( ° △°|||)︴I discovered that Zhou Yian is following you right now! 】
【Xie He：Oh? 】Xie He’s eyes flashed.
【444：Wuwuwuwu I’m sorry. I only discovered this now. QAQ】
Xie He’s face still maintained an indignant and angry appearance. He silently returned. In his mind, he continued to chat with 444.
【Xie He：This is good. I never thought that my earlier preparations would come to use so quickly. This is the opportunity that I talked about. 】
【444：？？？】
【Xie He’s mood isn’t bad：You still remember what Zhou Yizhe had said when he saved me from Ding Ming, right? 】
【444：He said that you’re his people.】
【Xie He：That’s right. He said this sentence. Furthermore, he sent Ding Ming to prison within a week. This kind of major event must have long since spread amongst the social circles.】
【444’s brain finally switched on：So say that Zhou Yian hears of this rumour. As a result, he’d begin to doubt you?】
【Xie He：Correct. Only it’s a bit out of my expectations that he heard this information so soon, since Zhou Yian is estranged from the social circles. The person who told him this news is obvious, when considering their goal. To specifically tell Zhou Yian this rumour, they definitely wish that Zhou Yian and I break up. 】
【444：……Song Ruyi?】
【Xie He, extremey gratified：Correct. Strokes head.jpg】
【444：~(≧▽≦)/~Lalala】
【Xie He：In brief, this is all according to plan.】
【444：Host dada is so amazing! 】
【Xie He：The only thing that wasn’t a part of my plan is the effect of this Heartthrob Pedigree. It’s even better than I imagined. 】
【444：It’s the legendary first-rate pedigree after all! 】
【Xie He：To even make someone like Zhou Yizhe think of me all the time……it makes me want to give it a try as well.】
【444：Σ( ° △°|||)︴】It couldn’t be that Host dada wanted to try the legendary self-cest!
【Xie He：Of the 100 hosts that came to capture me, not a single one of them had the Heartthrob’s pedigree. I give them a negative review.】
【444：……】
【Xie He：Anyways, back to the main point. Today’s weather is not bad. It’s good for breaking up :)】
