Fu Cheng was actually on the phone. He had just taken a work related call when, immediately afterward, his mother, Jiang Peilan, called him as well.
“This girl just came back from abroad after completing her doctorate in medicine. She’s twenty eight, gentle and composed and she’s pretty too. You’ll definitely like her. I gave her your WeChat, so if she adds you, remember to accept her.”
Fu Cheng rejected the suggestion directly. “No need. I’m still talking to the one from last time.”
Madam Jiang was a little confused. “The one from last time? Didn’t you two stop talking?”
“Yeah. We started talking again afterward.”
Hearing that, Jiang Peilan became even more puzzled. Hadn’t that girl said they had deleted each other on WeChat? And that had been more than two months ago. How had they somehow started talking again?
Moreover, when she had run into that girl some time ago, the girl already had a boyfriend.
Had her son become the other man?
“You’re not lying to me, are you? I’m telling you, I have that girl’s WeChat too. I’ll know whether it’s true or not as soon as I ask her.”
Fu Cheng replied, “I never joke about things like this.”
Jiang Peilan thought about it and realized that was true. Back when his father had been critically ill, they had even tried to persuade him to enter into a fake marriage with someone to give his father some peace of mind but he had refused. Now, he certainly wouldn’t make something like this up.
“Well, that’s fine too. As long as you like them, I don’t care who you date. Even if you bring home a male daughter in law, I’ll accept him.”
Fu Cheng said indifferently, “That’s impossible. My sexual orientation is perfectly normal.”
“Fine, fine, even better if that’s impossible. You two should date properly. If you get the chance, bring that girl home for dinner. Mom will personally cook for her.”
The two of them chatted for a while longer before finally hanging up.
Madam Jiang still felt that something was off. She opened the girl’s WeChat, intending to ask what had happened but then remembered that her son had always been someone who knew his own mind. Interfering too much would only make him resentful, so she closed the chat window again.
Forget it. He was already thirty, not a child anymore. He knew how to handle things better than she did.
After Fu Cheng hung up, he saw the few messages Wen Qianqian had sent him. Thinking about the way his cheeks had turned bright red and how flustered he had looked today, the corners of Fu Cheng’s lips curved slightly as he replied.
Less than three minutes after Wen Moxue sent the message, he received a reply.
Fu: I’m free tomorrow.
The phone Wen Moxue was holding nearly smacked him in the face.
He and Fu Cheng had known each other for a little over a month yet so far, they had only met three times.
He had thought it would be many days before they met again. How was this old man capable of completely refusing to follow the normal script?
Wen Moxue chickened out again.
A’Xiaoli: But I’m not free tomorrow.
A’Xiaoli: I already made plans with a friend tomorrow. We’re going to buy a present for my brother.
What a brilliant excuse to refuse!
Fu: Don’t bother. Save the money for yourself.
A’Xiaoli: That won’t do. My brother has given me so many things. I can’t be selfish that only lets things in and never lets anything out.
A’Xiaoli: I want to let my brother experience the happiness of receiving presents too.
Fu: Okay.
Having escaped the crisis, Wen Moxue let out a relieved sigh.
The next day after class, Wen Moxue invited Shu Yan out for dinner and, while they were at it, asked him to help come up with some ideas for what he should buy.
It was his first time buying a present for a man and he had absolutely no experience with it.
The two of them chose a luosifen hotpot restaurant. The shop was tucked away in an alley near the school and its distinctive smell could be detected from quite a distance away. It was the kind of fragrant and funky smell that made both children and adults complain that it was too stinky, while university students found it just right.
Most of the customers there were students from their own university or the nearby university of technology. The prices were affordable and during peak hours, customers even had to wait for a table.
The two arrived early, so there weren’t many people there yet and they managed to get a window seat.
After they ordered, their hotpot broth was brought over. The pot was filled to the brim with a red, oily broth floating with fried yuba. Once it began boiling, the smell rose with the steam and rushed straight into their faces. That unmistakable aroma unique to luosifen immediately burrowed into their noses.
Wen Moxue waved his hand beneath his nose. “This smell is seriously addictive.”
“It’s even more addictive once you eat it. Too bad my professor doesn’t like it, otherwise I’d come here every day.”
Shu Yan twisted open the cap of his orange juice and poured some into his cup with a glug. “By the way, didn’t you have something you wanted to ask me?”
“I want to buy Fu Cheng a present. Do you have any recommendations?”
“A present? Hmm… How about a watch?”
“Forget it. I’ve seen him wearing a watch before. With the kind of money he throws around, it probably costs at least a million. Even if I gave him one, it would just sit there collecting dust.”
“You idiot! You can buy two watches, the kind of matching mechanical watches that cost one or two thousand each. He’ll definitely wear it every day. Every time he looks at the time, he’ll think of you.”
Wen Moxue suddenly understood. He raised a thumb and said, “Brilliant! You’re a genius!”
Just then, the dishes arrived.
Shu Yan poured the raw duck blood, beef balls and the other ingredients into the pot and asked him, “The speed at which you two are progressing suddenly feels like you’ve gotten on a rocket. I have a feeling he’s going to drag you to a hotel very soon. What are you planning to do?”
“That’s easy. I’ll just tell him I’m a conservative person and don’t support premarital sex.”
“Pfft.”
Shu Yan gave him a thumbs up. “You’re the real genius.”
The luosifen hotpot was genuinely delicious and the price was genuinely affordable too. The two of them ate until they were full for just a little over a hundred yuan.
Shu Yan was so stuffed that he covered his stomach in distress, then looked at Wen Moxue’s slender waist with envy.
“You eat even more than I do. Why don’t you ever gain weight?! This is so unfair!”
Wen Moxue spread his hands. “Born this way. Nothing I can do about it.”
He actually had quite a large appetite but he simply never seemed to gain weight. Sometimes, he even experienced low blood sugar.
There was a machine by the entrance that sprayed air to get rid of the smell of luosifen clinging to their clothes but by then, the two of them had practically been marinated in the smell. Even after using the machine, the scent still lingered on them, so they would have to go back, shower and change clothes.
Fortunately, they had taken off their outer jackets while eating. Once they put them back on, the smell was much fainter.
There was a watch shop on the pedestrian street near the school. The two walked over and after entering the store, Wen Moxue explained what he was looking for. The sales assistant brought out several pairs of matching watches for them to choose from.
Wen Moxue immediately fell in love with a pair of mechanical watches with starry blue dials. The straps were silver, while the dials were decorated with clusters of things that looked like tiny diamonds, forming nebula like shapes. They looked as though time itself were slowly flowing through the endless universe, delicate, sophisticated and luxurious.
The only problem was the price.
The two watches together actually cost more than twenty thousand yuan, which was far beyond Wen Moxue’s original budget.
But then he thought about the bag Fu Cheng had given him, which had cost more than two million yuan.
Could this even be considered expensive?
Besides, it was money that had come from Fu Cheng in the first place. The wool came from the sheep, after all.
Once he thought of it that way, Wen Moxue immediately stopped feeling bad about the expense. Maybe once Fu Cheng found out how much they cost, he would feel sorry for him and immediately transfer the money back to him.
He had wanted to hide for a few more days but unfortunately, the day after that was Friday, which meant he had to go to work at the teahouse.
This time, he didn’t even need to cause a fuss on WeChat, acting spoiled and cute in an attempt to wriggle out of it. Fu Cheng took the initiative to come and collect his gift himself.
A couple of days earlier, the shift supervisor had taken matters into his own hands and arranged for Lin Ling to serve him.
Lin Ling, who had always been quite shrewd, seemed to have suddenly lost her mind. Perhaps Wen Qianqian had been getting too much attention lately and jealousy had completely clouded her judgment. Even though she knew Fu Cheng wasn’t easy to deal with, she had still deliberately walked straight into the blade, making Fu Cheng extremely displeased.
The consequence was that both she and Lin Ling were summoned by the manager and given a thorough scolding.
So today, when Fu Cheng arrived, the shift supervisor no longer dared to make any decisions on his own. He honestly waited until Wen Moxue had finished his work before sending him over.
Wen Moxue had never been as nervous as he was this time. He stood outside the room and took several deep breaths before finally working up the courage to enter.
Fu Cheng was sitting there, one hand pressing against his temple. Wen Moxue immediately put on a concerned expression.
“Brother, what’s wrong?”
“I stayed up late because something came up yesterday. I have a headache.”
You deserve to die from it!
You’re already so old and you still stay up late. Sooner or later, you’re going to go bald!
The nastier Wen Moxue cursed him in his heart, the sweeter his voice became.
“My grandmother is a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. She taught me a few massage techniques. Let me give you a massage, Brother.”
Of course, he had never actually learned any massage techniques. His strategy was simply to press wherever he felt like pressing, with the ultimate goal of making Fu Cheng dizzy enough that he would pass out and Wen Moxue wouldn’t have to kiss him.
Fu Cheng gave a quiet “Mm.”
Wen Moxue then walked behind him.
The man’s hair was neither long nor short and it was thick and pitch black. He already had a son that old yet there wasn’t even a single gray hair on his head.
He must secretly be going to a hair salon to dye his hair!
Wen Moxue rubbed his hands together, raised them and placed them against Fu Cheng’s temples. Using the pads of his index, middle and ring fingers, he began rubbing and pressing. He didn’t know the first thing about massage, so he simply went at it blindly according to whatever felt right.
“Does it feel good, Brother?” Wen Moxue deliberately asked.
“Mm. A little harder.”
“……”
Damn it, he was even making special requests now!
Wen Moxue increased the pressure and continued massaging for a while but soon his fingers began to ache. To hide the fact that he had absolutely no idea what he was doing, he started ruffling Fu Cheng’s entire head of hair as though he were washing his hair.
After only a few swipes, Fu Cheng caught him by the wrist.
“What are you doing, Brother? This is my exclusive scalp nerve relaxation technique. Don’t you like it?”
Fu Cheng’s eyebrows lifted slightly.
“You’re sure it isn’t your exclusive seduction technique?”
Wen Moxue: “???”
“I didn’t!” Wen Moxue nearly died of injustice. Where exactly had he tried to seduce him? Did he really look that desperate?
“I’m giving you a proper massage!”
“Okay.” Fu Cheng expressed his belief in a thoroughly perfunctory tone. Wen Moxue tried to pull his hand back, only to discover that the man was holding his wrist rather tightly. He couldn’t pull it free.
“Brother, let go of me. I need to go make the tea.”
Fu Cheng turned his head and looked up at him, his voice low and deep. “Didn’t you say that the next time you saw me, you were going to kiss me until my legs went weak?”
Wen Moxue’s face instantly turned red. He lowered his voice and said, “We’re at work right now. Someone could come in at any time.”
“I already told them. They wouldn’t dare come in without permission.”
Wen Moxue: “………”
Damn. He had come prepared.
Wen Moxue had truly brought this upon himself. If he backed down now, not only would he arouse Fu Cheng’s suspicion, all his previous efforts would also go to waste.
It was just a kiss, wasn’t it? There was a more than two million yuan bag involved, after all.
Besides, Fu Cheng was so handsome and his figure was so good. He wouldn’t be losing out.
Thinking this, Wen Moxue hardened his heart, closed his eyes, bent down and planted a kiss directly on Fu Cheng’s lips. He had put a little too much force into it, though and the impact made Fu Cheng let out a muffled groan.
The last time, he had only kissed the corner of Fu Cheng’s lips. By the time Wen Moxue realized that what had happened counted as a kiss, it was already over, so he hadn’t had the slightest idea what it actually felt like.
This time, however, he was the one taking the initiative and he had mentally prepared himself beforehand. Because of that, he could clearly feel his own lips pressing against a pair of lips that were slightly cool.
Fu Cheng was such a cold, hard person yet his lips were unexpectedly soft.
A strange, tingling sensation spread from the place where their lips touched. It felt almost like an electric current had passed through him, leaving his lips numb.
What… what was he supposed to do next?
Fu Cheng’s eyes were slightly closed. The person who had boldly declared that he was going to kiss Fu Cheng until his legs went weak merely rubbed his lips against Fu Cheng’s a few times without the slightest bit of technique, then tried to escape as though he had completed a task.
Fu Cheng, however, had been prepared for that. He caught Wen Moxue around the waist.
The moment he tightened his arm, Wen Moxue let out a short, startled cry and his entire body fell straight into Fu Cheng’s arms.
Then the man’s kiss came down upon him.
Wen Moxue was a man and his height and build were perfectly ordinary but standing in front of the tall and imposing Fu Cheng, he somehow seemed incredibly small.
Fu Cheng held him securely in his arms and leaned his imposing body forward, as though completely enveloping Wen Moxue beneath him. The space between their noses was filled with his scent, fierce and predatory like a wolf or tiger yet also like a dense web woven tightly around him, leaving him nowhere to escape.
Wen Moxue was frightened.
He instinctively tried to push Fu Cheng away and run but the man’s arm was like an iron clamp, tightly locked around his waist. He couldn’t move at all.
Fu Cheng kissed his soft lips, turning and rubbing them against his own. The tip of his tongue slipped out from between Wen Moxue’s lips and teased at the soft seam of his mouth.
At first, Wen Moxue gritted his teeth and pressed his lips tightly together, refusing to let that tongue enter.
But as the kiss continued, it seemed as though he gradually ran out of air. His hands and feet became weak and his entire body felt as though electric currents were repeatedly rushing through him. Wave after wave of tingling sensation traveled along his scalp, leaving his mind hazy and heavy. Instinctively, he wanted to open his mouth to breathe.
The moment he opened it even slightly, he felt the older man’s tongue slip inside.
Then his entire body went soft, like a little beast that had been forcibly tamed, able only to surrender and let the other person do as he pleased.
