Chapter 18 – The Simp Is Forcibly Loved by the Overbearing CEO 18

Shuang Yu thought to himself, it wasn’t that he couldn’t treat him, but with this great Buddha present, he was afraid the three of them would choke on their food. Gao Yiwen was a very farsighted person. She could see that Feng Yan was very interested in Bai Shuangyu. If they insisted on staying, wouldn’t they just be a nuisance?

“Old Lu, I just remembered, didn’t your mom ask us to come home for dinner?”

She stood up with a beaming smile.

“Huh? My mom’s in our hometown…”

Lu Zihan replied with a bewildered look. His hometown was thousands of miles away; how could he go home for dinner?

“Then it must have been your sister who called you home for dinner. Let’s go, let’s go. Sorry, Shuang Yu, President Feng, we really have something to do. You two will have to eat by yourselves today.”

Gao Yiwen didn’t care whether he had a sister or not. She expressionlessly pulled him up and said to Feng Yan with a placating smile.

Feng Yan was very pleased with her tact. He nodded. “Miss Gao has a good character. We can cooperate next time we have a chance.”

He liked people who were obedient and knew how to handle situations. Since she had pleased him, he was happy to give her a little something in return. Gao Yiwen was ecstatic. With Feng Yan’s backing, wouldn’t she be able to walk sideways in the entertainment industry!

“Okay, okay, then we’ll cooperate next time. Of course, with President Bai. We’re off, have a nice date, you two.”

She dragged the completely clueless Lu Zihan away.

“Wait, we haven’t discussed the investment…”

“No need to discuss it. Never mind thirty million, President Feng will invest three hundred million for you. Let’s go, or we won’t even have three hundred yuan!”

Shuang Yu was speechless.

“Um… I suddenly remembered, my dad also asked me to come home for dinner…”

He tried to get up.

“Perfect, I also wanted to have a chat with Chairman Bai. It’ll probably be a late night. You wouldn’t mind if I stayed over, would you?”

Feng Yan said with a hint of green tea bitchiness, making a move to stand up himself.

Pah, shameless! Shuang Yu immediately sat back down and said with a cold face, “Then let’s just eat here.”

Feng Yan chuckled softly and whispered in his ear, his voice husky, “What, you don’t dare take me home? Afraid I’ll eat you in your bed?”

What kind of ruthless words were these! Goosebumps erupted all over Shuang Yu’s body. He asked hesitantly, “President Feng, are you gay?”

If he was gay, his taste was terrible. Although the original owner’s looks were passable, compared to these favored sons of heaven, he was just background material. For him to pass over a top-quality guy like Sheng Xiaoran and go for him was just absurd.

“No.”

Feng Yan denied it naturally.

Then why do you keep flirting with me? Are you sick?

Shuang Yu was utterly baffled.

“I’m just sexually interested in you. If being sexually interested means I’m gay, then fine, I’ve turned for you. So, you have to take responsibility.”

Feng Yan looked at his forced composure, a half-smile playing on his lips.

“My sexual orientation is normal. I’m afraid I can’t be responsible.”

Shuang Yu, stiff as a rock, denied it. Although he himself liked men, the original owner was a bona fide heterosexual.

“Do you think I’m beautiful?”

Feng Yan suddenly asked.

Shuang Yu looked at that face, more delicate and captivating than any woman’s, and couldn’t bring himself to deny it with a clear conscience.

“Although I hate being treated like a woman, if it’s you, I don’t mind.”

The latter thought for a moment before speaking.

You don’t mind, but I do!

Shuang Yu wore an indescribable expression. Seemingly reading his thoughts, Feng Yan suddenly let out a low, husky chuckle and seductively bit his ear.

“Hiss, are you a dog? Why are you biting people…”

He clutched his ear and glared at him.

“Want to make a bet with me? You will fall for me, both body and heart.”

Feng Yan propped up his face, speaking lazily with a brilliant smile.

“Impossible.”

Shuang Yu denied it without a second thought.

“Okay, the bet is on. If you lose, I’ll stop pestering you. If you win, your ass is mine.”

Feng Yan once again said something shocking, his hand suggestively touching his thigh. Without giving him a chance to refuse, he called the waiter over, changed the order to a two-person menu, and swapped the red wine again.

“I didn’t plan on betting with you…”

“Are you afraid of losing?”

“I won’t lose.”

“Since you won’t lose, then let’s bet.”

Feng Yan’s few words shut Shuang Yu up.

Soon, the waiter began to serve the dishes and opened the red wine, pouring it for both of them.

“The wine you ordered earlier, although expensive, has a rather astringent taste. You should be more suited to this one. It’s slightly acidic, but with a sweet aftertaste.”

Feng Yan’s words stunned Shuang Yu. How did he know his preference? This was his personal taste, unrelated to the original owner. It couldn’t have been found through investigation!

“Just a guess. So, did I guess right?”

Feng Yan raised his eyebrows triumphantly.

Shuang Yu didn’t reply. He raised his wine glass and clinked it against his, then took a sip of the red wine. It was slightly acidic on the palate, with a sweet aftertaste that lingered in his throat, carrying a faint scent of roses. It was indeed to his liking. Could this great figure, who had descended to the mortal world for a tribulation, know him? That shouldn’t be… He was just the lowest-ranking ghost messenger in the Underworld, a tiny official. How could someone from the Upper Realm possibly know him!

Unable to figure it out, Shuang Yu couldn’t be bothered to think about it anymore. In any case, he wouldn’t lose the bet, and apart from work, there was no need to see him again. “How do you want to bet?” he asked.

“Hmm, let’s set a six-month time limit. During this period, you can’t resist anything I do. If you actively kiss me, you lose,” Feng Yan said after a moment’s thought.

I’ve already won!

Although he was gay, he had his own personal preferences. The lunatic was good-looking, but he didn’t hit his aesthetic points. He liked men with big chests, who were masculine—the legendary power bottoms. Although he had never been with anyone, he believed he was a top and had never considered being bottom. They were both tops; it was impossible for him to actively kiss him. So, this bet was a sure win for him!

“Fine.”

Shuang Yu smiled confidently, and the bet was on. In a good mood, he felt like drinking more. Savoring the delicious food and fine wine, he sighed internally. No wonder this was a cushy job—a paid vacation with good food, fun, and sleep. It couldn’t be more comfortable.

After that, the two began to discuss the Xisha Resort Island project, and time passed unknowingly. Most of a bottle of red wine ended up in Shuang Yu’s stomach. He was the typical type who had a low tolerance for alcohol but enjoyed drinking. After downing more than half a bottle of red wine, he was feeling a bit light-headed. His skin, which flushed when he drank, was now tinged with pink, and his eyes became hazy, making him look a bit dazed.

“I-I’m going to the restroom.”

Shuang Yu stood up unsteadily, nearly knocking over the table. Fortunately, Feng Yan caught him, and he managed to stabilize himself.

“Let me walk you there.”

Feng Yan supported him as he staggered to the restroom. They both unzipped their pants and began to relieve themselves. In a daze, Shuang Yu vaguely sensed that the two streams of water were not quite the same. He glanced down at his own, then turned to look at Feng Yan’s. The next second, he felt half of his drunkenness vanish.

Damn it, they were both men, so why did he feel like he was in a game of eagle catching a chick when compared to him!

“What is it?”

Noticing his surprise, Feng Yan raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile.

“Well… I’m not sure if I should feel sorry for your future other half.”

Shuang Yu coughed, awkwardly averting his gaze and covering himself with his hand. Why was he feeling so insecure?
