Chapter 6 (2/2)
After ordering, the waiter left. Su Jiawen nervously looked at Luo Yu and stammered out,”Are you here to see me?”
”No,” Luo Yu said. ”I'm just pa.s.sing by.”
Su Jiawen nodded. Luo Yu pretended he believed this excuse and asked Su Jiawen, ”Is Jiang Qi good to you?”
”He is.” Su Jiawen only said two words. When the food arrived, he ate for a bit before speaking, ”I've recently started learning how to cook.”
Luo Yu instinctively looked at Su Jiawen's hands. Su Jiawen held them out for him to see. ”Yesterday I cut myself chopping vegetables.”
Luo Yu grabbed his left hand to observe. There were tiny cuts on his middle and ring fingers. He was just about to let go when he suddenly noticed that the belly of Su Jiawen's index finger was slightly rough. He hadn't noticed before, only discovering this fact now that his hand had brushed over it.
”This……” Luo Yu held onto his fingertips, expression conflicted.
Su Jiawen noticed Luo Yu's pause and pressed his thumb and index finger together. He smiled and told Luo Yu, ”My advisor said these are standard book-flipping calluses, but they're in the same place as other people's gun calluses.”
Luo Yu had seen Su Jiawen flip through books before; he really did use his index finger to flip the pages. He said to Su Jiawen, ”People who use guns don't all have calluses. I don't have any.”
He held his palm out for Su Jiawen to hold. Su Jiawen stroked Luo Yu's hand from his fingertips to his wrist, then said, ”Mr. Luo has the hands of a pampered man.”
Luo Yu was slightly aroused from his caresses, but maintained a polite smile and continued picking out food for Su Jiawen.
They ate till past seven. Luo Yu paid and walked out with Su Jiawen. He had almost never taken Su Jiawen out to eat in the past. The only time had been the once at Jian Island. Su Jiawen hadn't managed to eat properly then, having spent the entire duration holding onto Luo Yu and crying instead.
When they reached the restaurant's exit, Luo Yu suddenly grabbed onto Su Jiawen's hand. He pulled him to the side. Su Jiawen was completely trapped in Luo Yu's embrace. Luo Yu stood very close to him and asked, ”Do you know what's above this restaurant?”
”……A hotel?” Su Jiawen didn't know what Luo Yu was hinting at, so guessed at the answer.
”I had someone book a room. Will you come upstairs with me?” Luo Yu held on tightly to Su Jiawen's hand. It made one wonder if he was actually giving Su Jiawen a choice or just asking to be polite.
But Su Jiawen very seriously considered this question. Luo Yu stroked his wrist and could tell that Su Jiawen's heart was beating really fast. Soon after, Su Jiawen copied Luo Yu and leaned in close. His lips almost brushed against Luo Yu's chin; his breath was warm and tickled against Luo Yu's skin. He quietly answered, ”Okay.”
Luo Yu took him to the front desk downstairs and retrieved the key card. Su Jiawen glued himself to him, following Luo Yu upstairs and into the room.
Luo Yu didn't even bother turning on the lights. He grabbed Su Jiawen and pulled him in, then pressed him onto the door. As soon as he lowered his head, he could smell the soft fragrance of sin on him.
”Mr. Luo.” Su Jiawen felt ticklish. Luo Yu bit his neck and rubbed his teeth against Su Jiawen's jugular vein.
A nervous whimper escaped Su Jiawen. He moved, trying to escape Luo Yu's control. Luo Yu kept pressing him down, refusing to let him go. He glued himself to Su Jiawen's ear and asked him, ”Tell me, did you miss me?”
Su Jiawen gently pressed his lips against Luo Yu's chin, then s.h.i.+fted towards his lips. Luo Yu opened his mouth to kiss him.
What originally should've been a short kiss deepened as it lasted longer and longer. Su Jiawen was wearing a loose sweater. Luo Yu fondled him, starting from the waist and travelling up to the little nubs on his chest, squeezing them maliciously.
Su Jiawen pushed at him, but Luo Yu caught his hand. Luo Yu was still waiting for his response. He could only obediently answer, ”Yes.”
Luo Yu was extremely pleased. He wanted to say something else to tease him, but Su Jiawen struck first, using his soft and warm lips to block Luo Yu's mouth that was parted and ready to a.s.sign him a ten thousand word confession paper.
The hallways in the hotel were very quiet. But if you walked close to the door of a room at the end of the hallway, you would be able to tell that the door seemed to be shaking.
Luo Yu held Su Jiawen up by the b.u.t.tocks. He pressed him against the door and moved him up and down on his d.i.c.k. Su Jiawen couldn't hold in his cries. His voice sounded almost submerged, soft and seductive. His legs were limp and rested on both sides, swaying with Luo Yu's movements.
”Don't be too loud.” Luo Yu's voice was low as he scared him, ”If someone walks past, will they be able to hear how you sound in bed?”
Su Jiawen didn't dare to make noise again after that. He whimpered and used his hands to hold onto Luo Yu tightly.
Luo Yu could only see what seemed like tears in Su Jiawen's eyes. He finally realized that the room was too dim, so reached a hand out to turn on the lights. Su Jiawen bit his lip and looked at him, tears formed in his eyes but not yet fallen. His nose was a little red while his lips were bright red. His teeth pressed against his lips, making him appear both pitiful and adorable.
Su Jiawen closed his eyes in response to the sudden brightness of the lights turning on. He forced himself to open his eyelids; the way he looked at Luo Yu was as sincere as could be, as if he liked him to death. He also looked like he was stuck in a thunderstorm on a deserted island, trying to escape from Luo Yu but unable to no matter what.
Luo Yu held onto Su Jiawen's waist, practically engulfed by the look in his eyes. He couldn't control himself and asked Su Jiawen, ”Do you really like me a lot?”
Su Jiawen kept biting his lips. He didn't want to answer Luo Yu's disrespectful question.
”Do you?” Luo Yu released one hand so that Su Jiawen had to take him in deeper. Su Jiawen was terrified he would slide down the wall. He reached out to hug Luo Yu's neck, but Luo Yu brushed his hands away, all this time maintaining small thrusts upward.
Su Jiawen's entire body was as limp as a puddle of water. He cried and begged for mercy, ”I do, I like you.”
Luo Yu's self control left him. He kissed Su Jiawen as he continually pounded into him. Every thrust was completed with full force. The room was filled with fervent water noises.
Su Jiawen was dizzy, but still let Luo Yu f.u.c.k him. His erect member rubbed against Luo Yu's s.h.i.+rt, getting it wet. When Luo Yu brushed Su Jiawen's prostate, Su Jiawen tightened his legs around Luo Yu's waist and came with a s.h.i.+ver. The point at which they were connected was a mess. Luo Yu pounded in a couple more times while Su Jiawen squeezed. He came inside.
Luo Yu kept standing while holding onto Su Jiawen for a while before finally setting him down. The both of them were panting. Su Jiawen's back was red from being pressed against the door and f.u.c.ked for so long.
Luo Yu picked him up and threw him onto the bed. Su Jiawen grabbed onto Luo Yu's hand, staring at him with wide eyes.
Luo Yu leaned down and embraced Su Jiawen. He prepared to cuddle with him and sleep.
Suddenly, there was movement at the foot of the bed. Something in Su Jiawen's backpack was vibrating.
Luo Yu was still on him, his hand caressing his waist. Su Jiawen pushed at him. ”Mr. Luo, I have a phone call.”
Luo Yu was displeased, but he had just finished bullying Su Jiawen, so didn't want to be too strict. He let go of Su Jiawen and watched as he scooted slowly to the edge of the bed and pulled his phone out from his backpack.
When Su Jiawen grabbed his phone, his back was to Luo Yu. The blankets covered half his waist; his lower waist was covered with marks left by how hard Luo Yu had gripped him.
Su Jiawen's phone vibrated once more, as if the person had texted instead since the call hadn't been picked up. Su Jiawen glanced at it and turned around to tell Luo Yu, ”I need to go home.”
Luo Yu's eyebrows were squeezed together tightly. ”What do you mean go home? Just go directly to school tomorrow.”
They had only done it once. The night was just beginning.
”I can't……” Su Jiawen put on his sweater and turned to look at Luo Yu. He stubbornly persisted, ”I need to go home.”
Luo Yu sat up and glared at Su Jiawen. Seeing that he wasn't going to give in, he could only ask, ”Where do you live? I'll take you there.”
Before Su Jiawen could reply, his phone rang again. Luo Yu glanced down at it, only to see ”Mr. Jiang” displayed on the screen. Su Jiawen answered and made several noises of acknowledgement, then said, ”I'll be back soon, there's no need to pick me up.”
After hanging up, he told Luo Yu, ”You don't need to drive me. I can take a car there myself.”
Luo Yu's face was green. He angrily asked Su Jiawen, ”You live with Jiang Qi?”
”Of course.” Su Jiawen then put on his pants. His legs were still slightly shaking.
”Why do you live with Jiang Qi?” Luo Yu refused to give up.
Su Jiawen finished dressing himself. He finally turned around to look at Luo Yu. He calmly said, ”Didn't you give me to him?”
There was no resentment in Su Jiawen's eyes. His tone was that of someone chatting with a friend, but the words he spoke caused Luo Yu's heart to freeze.
The arousal that Su Jiawen had just caused him in bed instantly disappeared. He gazed speechlessly at Su Jiawen, until Su Jiawen bade him farewell.
Su Jiawen left in a hurry. Luo Yu sat there alone, feeling for the first time that he was the prost.i.tute. A while later, he finally remembered. He hadn't asked for Su Jiawen's phone number.
The next day, Luo Yu received an invitation from Jiang Qi to attend dinner. Jiang Qi had called at a good time. If it were a few days later, Luo Yu would've been out of town.
A local gang belonging to the Triad had robbed a s.h.i.+pment of cargo. They found an old negotiator to try and sell the goods to Luo Yu. It was a huge amount of cargo, so Luo Yu needed to see it first. They had scheduled to meet in Laos.
Lu Yi knocked on the door and told him Zhen Ting's Jiang Qi was asking when he had time for dinner in the next three days. Luo Yu glanced at his watch and said, ”Tonight works.”
Lu Yi looked at his schedule and reminded Luo Yu, ”Tonight Mr. Shen arrives in Ping City. You were originally going to go to White Nest with him.”
”Cancel that.” Luo Yu waved his hand impatiently. ”Can't Shen Qiyin find ways to amuse himself without me?”
Lu Yi's head hurt thinking about Shen Qiyin's unpredictable temperament, then walked outside the reply to Jiang Qi.
Jiang Qi chose a newly opened restaurant that served Western cuisine. He and Luo Yu were both ostentatious people, so he booked out the whole place.
Luo Yu took care to arrive fifteen minutes later than the scheduled time. He was dressed very formally, like a peac.o.c.k showing off his feathers, trying to outs.h.i.+ne the person sitting across.
Jiang Qi very politely stood up, only taking a seat again when Luo Yu sat down. ”I never imagined that one day Mr. Luo and I could sit together peacefully and eat.”
”You're being too polite.” Luo Yu gazed levelly at Jiang Qi and clinked gla.s.ses with him.
The two made small talk for a while. When the main dishes were served, Jiang Qi finally cut to the point. ”Does Mr. Luo know what goods A·L sent you?”
The laboratory results had come back a long time ago. Other than the ashes of the cargo placed in the container, there was also a type of biopoison originating from a lab in country A. After the container caught on fire, he lost contact with the firearms dealer in country A. When Luo Yu received this news, he had been in Europe. The entire event seemed fishy, to the point that even Luo Yu's father and a few of his seniors were notified.
Xing Licheng returned to Ping City immediately and caught the middleman who had introduced them to the firearms dealer from country A. They interrogated him but got no useful information. It was only after Luo Yu's seniors helped that they realized the firearms dealer from country A and his only son were both real, but somewhere along the way, a fake A·L had taken the real A·L's place.
”The container……” Jiang Qi's expression subtly changed. ”Ah Zheng ordered people to burn it. I didn't know before, so said it wasn't Zhen Ting who burned it.”
Luo Yu c.o.c.ked an eyebrow. ”Is it very difficult for you to see Ruan Zheng once?”
Jiang Qi was exasperated. ”These days you can only see the dragon's head but not his tail. I asked him why he burned your container and he said it was for your own good.”
The poisons in the container were extremely volatile and strong. If the fake A·L had had bad intentions and left the poison unbottled, then it would've been entirely too possible for deaths to have occurred when the container was opened.
But Luo Yu refused to believe that Ruan Zheng had done it for Luo Yu's own good. He noncommitedly answered, ”Is that so? Then I'll have to thank him. But how did Ruan Zheng know?”
Jiang Qi shook his head. ”Ah Zheng met A·L before, and also saw the A·L who came to Ping City last time. He's only letting me say this much. To get Jiawen from you this time, I gave up a lot of things. Ah Zheng already scolded me.”
Luo Yu turned his attention back onto Jiang Qi after hearing Su Jiawen's name.
”Oh right, Mr. Luo. Jiawen was with you yesterday?” Jiang Qi asked Luo Yu, seemingly casually.
Luo Yu glanced at him, then nodded quite arrogantly.
”No wonder he came home late,” Jiang Qi spoke as he lowered his head and cut at his steak.
Luo Yu didn't know why he was in such a good mood. He provoked Jiang Qi, partly as a way of showing off, ”CEO Jiang's methods of raising a sugar baby are really quite unique. You've raised him onto my bed.”
”I'm not as despicable as you,” Jiang Qi shook his head. ”I'm all about going with the flow.”
”That won't be easy,” Luo Yu said. ”Last night Su Jiawen was still crying and saying he liked me.”
Jiang Qi lifted his head and looked at Luo Yu as the corners of his mouth twitched. ”Maybe one day he'll also cry in bed and say he likes me.”
Jiang Qi's refute angered Luo Yu so much he almost forgot to breathe, but he didn't express this. His expression simply became colder as he shrugged and refused to reply.
They continued discussing business, which was when Jiang Qi received a call. He looked at his phone, then apologized and walked out to answer. After he came back, he told Luo Yu, ”Ah Zheng said he wishes you well.”
Luo Yu nodded nonchalantly. ”I hope to greet Mr. Ruan in person one day.”
”It's Ah Zheng's first time being in a relations.h.i.+p. He's in a little deep, so is extra busy.” Jiang Qi's smile was protective. ”Hopefully Mr. Luo can understand.”
”Is that so?” Luo Yu gave a perfunctory response. Jiang Qi really knew how to make stuff up. His lies almost sounded real.
He didn't think Jiang Qi would nod and continue saying, ”But you know men. Everything's the same when you get in bed. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to catch him either.”
Luo Yu furrowed his brows. He thought Jiang Qi was quite troublesome. Why was he sharing so much about Ruan Zheng's personal life out of the blue? But he still politely made a noise of ”un” before taking his leave. ”It's late. I still have some business at the company. I'll contact you when I'm free.”
Jiang Qi walked with him to his car. The two shook hands; on the surface, it seemed that they were over their previous feud.
