When Sheng Mingzhi got married, he didn't think about what would happen if Lu Jiayan asked him to have intercourse after marriage.

But when the moment came, he was still confused, because he had been thinking about it for three years and hadn't figured out how to answer.

Lu Jiayan's hints are so blunt that he can't even pretend to be stupid.

The moment Sheng Mingzhi reacted, his heart pounded so violently that it almost jumped out of his chest.

Yes, married couples, living together in a matrimonial home, in such a dark atmosphere, both grown men, it's not surprising that something adult should happen.

If the other person asks to share a room, he can't really, like, find a reason to say no!

Lu Jiayan's patience had reached its limit, but after he had said this he remained gentlemanly and waited for Sheng Mingzhi's answer.

About Sheng Mingzhi's silence was too long, Lu Jiayan said carelessly, "Can I take it that you acquiesce if you don't answer?"

Sheng Mingzhi: ......

What a shame!

"You!" Sheng Mingzhi opened his mouth, the first word was heavy, but the words that followed were soft and awkward: "Can you be a little more reserved?"

"The way you think I look." Lu Jiayan exhaled a shallow breath, "Can you still be reserved?"

Sheng Mingzhi didn't understand what he meant by that.

The next moment Lu Jiayan, who grabbed his wrist, used his strength to lift him directly onto the bed, Sheng Mingzhi didn't feel light, but the other man looked so relaxed that he fell directly onto the man.

It seems to feel the temperature of something.

Sheng Mingzhi's body once again stiffens into stone.

Indeed, very un, reserved.

......

In the three years of his marriage, he had not been in such close contact with Lu Jiayan.

It was as if my body was out of my control and I didn't know how to swing my arms and legs.

Lu Jiayan asked again, "Is it okay."

Sheng Mingzhi was a little confused by the question in his voice and felt the alcohol in his body rearing its head again.

It made him dizzy, and he didn't know how to answer Lu Jiayan, maybe half-heartedly agreed? After all, Lu Jiayan is quite handsome, and just now he feels quite ...... well. He is not at a disadvantage anyway.

And having been married for three years, when you think about it old men are already running their third year and still being older virgins.

He, who could not bear it?

In the end, it was he who was supposed to drink that glass of wine tonight.

Sheng Mingzhi's defences are half down as he feels weak and guilty.

By the time he looked back, the other man's kiss was coming on strong.

I could tell that the drink was very potent.

Sheng Mingzhi's waist was suddenly tightened by his arm and he subconsciously stifled a grunt, just in time for the other man to drive in.

There was more than a few impatient gasps in the otherwise quiet bedroom.

Sheng Mingzhi was the first time he had seen Lu Jiayan in a state of emotion, unlike his usual cold and aloof self, he thought Lu Jiayan was one of those contemporary Cyber monks, the type who would be pushed down by him righteously after he had taken off his lap.

For the first time he saw the man lose control, with a force so terrifying that it left him like a blank sheet of paper, crumpled and opened.

A dense tingle came from her lips and her already somewhat fleshy lips were made even more red and swollen by the kiss.

His solicitousness is inexhaustible.

But Sheng Mingzhi never responded, even though he was given what he wanted.

His eyes wandered from Lu Jiayan's high nose to his glistening peach blossom eyes, his eyebrows were full of emotion and his contours were deep and handsome. With eyes like these, one can look at a dog with deep emotion.

Lu Jiayan suddenly raised his eyes at this moment and looked into Sheng Mingzhi's slightly lax pupils.

......

Lu Jiayan, this dog man is really some kind of fox that has been cultivated for a thousand years, right?

Who could resist not moving when being looked at with eyes like that? It was hard not to create a sense that the plastic affection between the two of them had sublimated a little in their physical interaction.

Pity.

Sublimated plastic is also plastic.

The nights are long and quiet at One XiShan.

The birch trees outside the window are swayed by the cold wind for a few rounds until the light of day breaks and dawn arrives silently, and the movement in the first floor bedroom subsides.

-

The next morning, Sheng Mingzhi woke up from his sleep.

The first thing he felt was discomfort and he subconsciously rolled over, only to have the pain and numbness hit him at the same time.

It is straightforward to be painfully sober.

Sheng Mingzhi sits up, his hair in a mess like a chicken's nest.

The dazed brain finally pieced together some scattered memories, and then the whole thing froze.

He, last night, slept with, Lu Jiayan.

Oh.

Wrong words.

Yes, by Lu Jiayan, slept with.

All night long.

......

......

It took a good ten minutes for Sheng Mingzhi to slowly digest this one fact.

Then he looked to his left and saw that he was the only one in the large kg size bed, the other side had long since been emptied, and Sheng Mingzhi felt the blanket, which was cold, and wondered how long it had been gone.

Sheng Mingzhi pauses.

And then touched it three times in a row before accepting the fact incredulously - this dog man was gone early in the morning? Just gone to work?

-- simply proves in action what it means to pull x without mercy.

Thanks to him, he thought last night that this plastic relationship between the two of them would not be slightly more harmonious later on.

As it turns out, Sheng Mingzhi was very wrong.

The reason why dog men are dogs.

It is because he is a dog, not a human being.

One cannot do such a heartbreakingly unethical thing.

True to form, the exquisitely self-interested capitalist vampire used him and then threw him away!

Should I say that he should not have any illusions about Lu Jiayan, a workaholic? What's the point of living with him? Go marry his precious job.

Sheng Mingzhi is getting more and more angry as he thinks about it in bed.

I simply took out my phone and blacked out Lu Jiayan's phone number and WeChat, then stacked up my anger value, got out of bed, packed some clothes and went straight to the flat floor of JinMao building.

--This is where Sheng Mingzhi stayed most often before Lu Jiayan returned to China.

He was surprised when Shen Ling called him to ask him out for dinner just after he had packed his clothes.

Sheng Mingzhi was hungry after being tossed around all night, and when he thought of it, he felt that Lu Jiayan, the old dog, had no conscience at all.

Not even a breakfast for him?

Sheng Mingzhi's jumbled mind did not calm down until he reached the car.

On the one hand, he was angry enough to leave home, and on the other hand, he really didn't know how to face Lu Jiayan.

As soon as I close my eyes, the scenes from last night play out in my mind like a movie.

The more you try to forget, the clearer the details are recalled.

The dog man in bed and under the bed seem to be two people.

What kind of svengali scum is a beast, can't you understand human language in bed? Sheng Mingzhi is on the verge of wondering if he's been saving up for too long, and once he gets his meat on there's no end to it, and not only that, he bites people.

And, it seems, he was crying last night.

At the thought, Sheng Mingzhi jerked the lower half of his face and stared out of the window in depression, feeling like he had lost a grown-up.

Open the windows as wide as they will go to let the cold winter breeze in and blow the heat off your face.

After a moment, he took out his phone again and fiddled with it for a moment.

Then, as if nothing had happened, he switched to WeChat and, after a moment's hesitation, released Lu Jiayan's WeChat from his blacklist.

-

After a quick meal with Shen Ling, the Twitter buzz has exploded again.

Yesterday there was the big melon between Qiao Yan and Huo Yuzhe, and today there is another melon about a producer in the circle who raped Little Yi. Shen Ling brought up the issue at the dinner table as if it was a joke.

Sheng Mingzhi The name sounds familiar, Gao Yubo?

He suddenly remembered that it was this rotten man who had handed him a drink last night.

Sheng Mingzhi was not too surprised to see that Gao Yubo was on the hot seat today.

As expected, he had offended Lu Jiayan and would have had problems living his life to the fullest, and would probably have spent the rest of his life in jail.

I just didn't expect Lu Jiayan to move so quickly.

Did he go to the office in the morning to deal with this matter?

Shen Ling is still chattering away about her beauty routine.

Sheng Mingzhi, however, is too tired from last night and is dazed.

That is, until the phone on the desktop vibrated untimely.

Sheng Mingzhi glanced over and the caller was Lu Jiayan.

His drowsiness cleared instantly.

The eyes look at the caller in awe, not knowing whether to answer or not.

Until the phone hangs up naturally.

Shen Ling finished the photo shoot and casually asked, "Why aren't you answering your husband's phone?"

Sheng Mingzhi: ......

It was as if the pot was not ready when Shen Ling said, "Why are you only eating clear soup today?

Sheng Mingzhi: ......

He called Little Wang before Lu Jiayan continued to harass him.

As soon as he got through, Sheng Mingzhi said categorically, "Are there any suitable scripts that you can audition for recently, preferably the kind where you go deep into the mountains and Mr. Lin is isolated from the world for two months?"

Little Wang listened to him finish in one breath, and a :? slowly emerged from the top of his head.

This little ancestor never takes the initiative to call and ask him about his work, always treating his showbiz career as a five to nine punchline, today the sun has come out of the west?

"Why are you suddenly so active at work, it's making me so uncomfortable, did you lose the truth or dare?"

Sheng Mingzhi: ......

"Do you think it's been a long time since you've seen my hand slipping and liking on the hot seat and you're not saturated with enough work?"

Little Wang: "Yes, Little Mr. Sheng, I'll contact the crew right away."

Just after hanging up Little Wang's phone, Lu Jiayan called five more times.

Sheng Mingzhi Eyes off the ball, just snap on the phone.

As a result, the other party saw that he was really not answering his phone and moved to WeChat.

Send him a: [?

After the last question mark incident, Sheng Mingzhi finally understood.

It turns out that Lu Jiayan's question mark really means "what's wrong", not quite understanding the world of some post-90s.

Lu Jiayan's chat box was in the middle of typing, and it took a long time before he sent a message: [Where are you?

How could he be so kind as to ask where his own people were?

Who was it that disappeared early in the morning?

The next message came from Lu Jiayan: [I went downstairs to cook a bowl of porridge and when I got back to my room I found you gone.

Sheng Mingzhi had been waiting with a burning temper to see how Lu Jiayan would explain his early morning disappearance.

As a result, the moment I saw the chat, it was a moment of reason.

Did he turn out to be in the kitchen cooking porridge.

Sheng Mingzhi was a bit sceptical, as he was so mentally confused in the morning that he couldn't remember if there was anyone over at the centre island desk when he went out.

By the end of the night, Sheng Mingzhi had ignored Lu Jiayan.

The other party was probably also very busy at work, and apart from contacting him in the morning, he was basically inactive in the afternoon.

It was also said that he was not persistent enough.

Isn't Lu Jiayan himself not much of a stickler?

Sheng Mingzhi's original intention was to stay at JinMao Mansion for a while.

But halfway through the drive it became clear that the JinMao building was too close to Sheng Jia's headquarters and Lu Jiayan had a habit of staying overnight at the JinMao Hotel, where he could run into him at any time.

Halfway through the drive, the Bentley turned around and headed straight for Sheng Xu's flat.

Sheng Mingzhi arrived at his brother's house just as Sheng Xu was leaving work.

His brother wore a suit and was a man of the cloth.

It's completely unexpected that this man was a good skipped school and fought and scaled walls in high school.

Sheng Mingzhi stood in the doorway and announced directly and dryly, "I'm going to stay with you for a month."

Him: "Heard that?"

"I hear you." Sheng Xu raised an eyebrow, looked him up and down, and spoke with a look as if he had finally waited for this day, " Lu Jiayan finally couldn't stand your young master's temper and kicked you out? Although I had expected it, I didn't expect this day to come so soon."

Sheng Mingzhi: ......

He just knew.

His brother can't get any ivory out of his dog's mouth.

Sheng Mingzhi gave a fake smile and nodded, "You look like you're quite happy."

He nodded: "That's true. After all, if Lu Jiayan and I get divorced, you'll have a chance. It's not easy to be secretly in love with him for so many years. I respect love."

Sheng Xu: ......

Don't make him throw up.

Sheng Mingzhi raised his eyebrows as he watched him suffer a defeat.

Sitting directly on the sofa, he unwrapped Sheng Xu's snacks and ate them.

Thinking about it and feeling that I hadn't been shady enough earlier, I added, "Don't be too happy about it either. School bullies like you who like to skip classes and fight in high school are going to be slept with by men."

Sheng Xu laughed at him, "Really? You're quite a researcher?"

Sheng Mingzhi is honest: " Shen Ling reads novels that say this. You should be glad you're so ugly, otherwise you'd have been slept with in high school. Oh, especially by a cool bully like Lu Jiayan. Did you guys really never talk in high school?"

"What a mess of a novel you've been reading." Sheng Xu gave him a sharp knock on the head, causing Sheng Mingzhi to cry out in pain.

Sheng Xu said coolly, "I'm telling you. Lu Jiayan is not good enough for me."

After saying this, the room fell silent.

It took a long time before Sheng Mingzhi could be heard to say, "Brother. I think it's better for you to be self-aware."

......

In the evening, when Sheng Mingzhi went to bed, he opened the WeChat log with Lu Jiayan again.

The conversation still lingers on Lu Jiayan's last words.

Sheng Mingzhi stared at it for a long time, but turned his phone off and pressed it under his pillow.

Early the next morning, the first snowfall since the beginning of winter in YunJing.

Sheng Mingzhi finally found something to tweet about, so I went downstairs and took a few photos of the snowy landscape with great enthusiasm.

He wasted about half an hour downstairs before going upstairs.

As I pushed open the door to the room, I vaguely sensed a hint of something wrong.

A pair of men's shoes is inexplicably out in the entrance hall, and they look strangely familiar.

Not at all like his brother's cheap taste.

Sheng Mingzhi's right eye jumped, and before he could exit the door, he saw an unmistakably familiar back sitting in the living room, so familiar that Sheng Mingzhi could guess that there were probably still a few red marks on his back from his scratches that hadn't gone away.

Just in time, Lu Jiayan heard the commotion and looked over absently.

Sheng Mingzhi: ......

Sheng Xu emerged from the study and, seeing this, sneered a little.

The gloating was written on his face, and he raised his chin towards Lu Jiayan.

"You've found the man too, so hurry up and take him away. After eating and drinking at my house for nothing all day, remember to transfer the two million to my account."

When Sheng Mingzhi heard this, he was immediately unconvinced: "How did you calculate the money? I just had one dinner and it's worth two million?"

Sheng Xu pointed to his head: "Two million dollars for moral damages. Do you need me to relay the original words of the school bully and school bully romance novel you made up to Lu Jiayan?"

Lu Jiayan's eyes skim over.

Sheng Mingzhi steeply shut up.

When the MingChen group had something to do, Sheng Xu threw Sheng Mingzhi over to Lu Jiayan's side and that was the end of the account.

When he left, Sheng Mingzhi and Lu Jiayan were the only two people left in the room.

The awkwardness spread silently.

After a while, Sheng Mingzhi, unable to bear the atmosphere, broke the silence: "What brings you to my brother's place?"

Lu Jiayan looked at him idly, "I'm not coming to you. Do you remember that you have a home."

"Oh." Sheng Mingzhi, having thought of an excuse long ago, said slowly and slyly, "Of course I remember. It's just that seeing as you've been rather busy with work lately, I was afraid of disturbing you at home--"

Who knows, Lu Jiayan didn't bother to listen to his nonsense and simply interrupted him, saying lightly, "Mingzhi."

Sheng Mingzhi suddenly had a bad feeling about this.

Sure enough, Lu Jiayan laughed and questioned slightly, "You don't want to be responsible after sleeping with me, do you?"

Sheng Mingzhi: ......

Never thought of such a tricky question.

For a moment, I couldn't answer.

The next second, he couldn't resist retorting, "Who's not responsible?"

"I didn't return your call because Little Wang just happened to pick up a script for me and I'll be on set for about two months or so ......"

Sheng Mingzhi had spoken with a straight face, but at Lu Jiayan's smirking look, the more he spoke, the more he became vain.

How does this excuse seem, like, really like an irresponsible scumbag?

"What about me?" Lu Jiayan curled his lips and sighed deliberately, "I've been seen naked and slept with by you, I'm not a complete man anymore, no one will want me in the future even if I get a divorce."

It is as if Sheng Mingzhi is some kind of unforgivable sea king.

Lu Jiayan's tone is sultry, and he has a bit of acting talent in him, mimicking it beautifully.

Sheng Mingzhi: ......

He persuaded himself to calm down, took a deep breath and muttered calmly, "It's all men, what does it matter if you're seen naked. Can't I just let you look back?"

Who knows, but Lu Jiayan pauses for a moment.

Slowly, he said, "You think so."

Sheng Mingzhi :?

The man hooked his lips and raised an eyebrow, "Well, that's not cheap again."
