Chapter 11: Kill That Gold-Digging Scammer 11
Shen Wu turned on the light.
Ran Min was no longer in the dorm.
The quilt was folded neatly like a block of tofu.
Shen Wu almost suspected this guy had trained in the military.
Ran Min was just a passerby character mentioned in passing in his novel, not even having a name. Even as the author, Shen Wu wasn’t clear about Ran Min’s origins.
He only had one identity: Shen Xingwu’s brief roommate.
Shen Wu pulled out his phone and took a look; it was seven o’clock.
Climbing out of bed, he casually grabbed an outfit from the cabinet, preparing to change and go downstairs for a meal.
Work started at eight o’clock, so this time was just right.
Just as he took off his clothes and before he had time to put them on, the dorm door was suddenly opened.
Ran Min stood at the door holding a bottle of water.
When his gaze fell on Shen Wu’s fair back, he froze.
Shen Wu turned his head reflexively. Seeing Ran Min, he smiled and greeted him, “You’re back.”
Ran Min’s pupils shrank slightly.
For a man, how is his waist so thin?
And so… pink?
His hand holding the water bottle tightened. An “Mm” was squeezed from his throat, seemingly reluctantly.
Shen Wu didn’t mind either. He turned around and pulled the T-shirt over his body.
Ran Min walked into the room and closed the door.
After placing the water on the table aside, he pulled out a chair and sat down.
The rustling sound of changing clothes reached his ears.
Ran Min knew Shen Wu was changing his pants.
He also knew Shen Wu’s underwear was black.
A pair of legs that were both long and straight.
And very white.
He himself was a bit surprised at why his focus would be on this.
Ultimately, he concluded that it was probably because he had never lived with anyone else before. With a roommate suddenly popping up, it was inevitable he would pay a bit more attention.
After Shen Wu finished changing, he didn’t greet Ran Min again. Grabbing his phone and keys, he headed out.
…
After casually eating a bowl of noodles at the restaurant next to the dorm building, Shen Wu went to Hello right on time.
After changing into his work uniform, a busy day began.
Running up and down non-stop the entire night delivering drinks, fruit platters, and snacks to guests, while also having to clean up the hygiene along the way.
He felt like he was tired as a dog.
If he had kept his phone on him, his WeChat step count would be at least 20,000+.
From 8 PM to 4 AM.
Shen Wu felt this job wasn’t really working out; it was easy to die from sudden cardiac arrest.
Staying up all night playing games was fine, but staying up all night working was not.
But he couldn’t change jobs for now. He could only change jobs after hooking up with Xie Cishu.
…
Xie Cishu sat in a booth.
When he saw Shen Wu smilingly pouring drinks for a few young girls, Xie Cishu, who usually didn’t show his emotions, had a rare moment of distraction.
His gaze moved from the work uniform that pinched his waistline extremely thin to the cat ears worn on his head.
His eyes gradually darkened.
After casually ordering a cocktail, Xie Cishu chose a corner booth. He leaned back on the sofa and lit a cigarette.
He didn’t have much of a smoking addiction. His slender fingers held the cigarette without smoking it, his gaze falling calmly on Shen Wu.
Did Zhou Geng know his good younger brother was working in a bar?
Heh~
He really should record a video for Zhou Geng, letting him see how his supposedly innocent and easily deceived younger brother was talking and laughing merrily amongst a group of women.
…
In places like bars, there are often many people hunting for romance.
For a top-tier catch like Xie Cishu, there were quite a few people staring at him from the moment he walked in the door.
Wearing glasses, with a cold face, and dressed in a high-quality shirt buttoned all the way to the top, he maximized the ascetic vibe.
Whether from his temperament or his attire, everything hinted that this was a wealthy man.
However, his “strangers keep away” demeanor deterred many who had ideas.
But there were always some bold ones who took the initiative to strike up a conversation.
“Handsome, drinking alone?”
Xie Cishu lifted his eyelids and glanced at the woman in front of him.
The woman was dressed very fashionably, wore exquisite makeup, and held a glass of wine in her hand. She was looking at him with a beaming smile.
“I don’t need a drink companion.”
The smile on the woman’s face froze, but quickly, she returned to normal. She raised her hand to brush the long hair by her ear. “Handsome, I’m not a drink companion, I just want to make friends with you.”
Xie Cishu looked at her and spoke very calmly, “Sorry, I am gay.”
The smile on the woman’s face completely froze. She looked at Xie Cishu in disbelief. With this kind of appearance, this kind of figure and temperament, he was actually gay?
Does the gay circle eat this well?
“Sorry for bothering you.” The woman took one look at Xie Cishu before stepping in her high heels and leaving swiftly.
Xie Cishu picked up the wine in front of him and took a sip. The spicy liquid slid down his throat, but Xie Cishu didn’t even furrow his brow.
Before he even finished one glass of wine, he was approached by someone else again.
Xie Cishu used the same words to send the other party away.
“Mr. Xie, what a coincidence!” A young man’s slightly pleasantly surprised voice reached his ears.
Xie Cishu raised his eyes and saw Shen Wu standing beside him, smiling at him with an obedient face.
Perhaps because Shen Wu had spent a bit too much time with those young girls, he had picked up a faint trace of perfume.
Xie Cishu couldn’t help but furrow his brows and spoke coldly, “Stay away from me.”
Shen Wu: …
The obedient smile originally on his face became tinged with awkwardness. He hadn’t expected Xie Cishu to be this cold.
He took a step back and unwillingly asked, “Mr. Xie, do you still remember me?”
Xie Cishu’s heavy gaze fell on Shen Wu’s face.
His undisguised, scrutinizing gaze made Shen Wu feel a bit uneasy.
It was too oppressive.
It felt like the illusion of being stared at by a teacher during class.
Just when Shen Wu couldn’t help but want to speak again, Xie Cishu replied,
“Sorry, I don’t remember.”
Shen Wu: …
Important people are forgetful… So awkward!!!
He smiled awkwardly and explained to Xie Cishu, “I am Zhou Geng’s younger brother, Shen Xingwu. When I came to Jing City, you were the one driving to pick me up with my brother, and we even ate barbecue together…”
After Shen Wu finished, he cautiously added, “Does Mr. Xie have any impression of it?” attempting to awaken Xie Cishu’s slumbering memory.
Xie Cishu pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose before speaking unhurriedly, “Now that you mention it, I seem to have some impression.”
“However…” Xie Cishu dragged out the end of his sentence slightly. “I remember the job he found for you seemed to be in sales.”
Shen Wu smiled awkwardly. “Well… I changed jobs.”
Xie Cishu gave a cold “Oh” and withdrew his gaze. Clearly, he had no desire to chat with Shen Wu any longer.
Shen Wu: …
He had waited for almost a week before finally catching Xie Cishu. Let alone hooking up with him, the guy was ignoring him altogether. What should he do?
Although he wrote that Shen Xingwu successfully hooked up with Xie Cishu, he didn’t know how he hooked up with him!
He was a grown man who hadn’t even pursued a woman before, let alone having experience pursuing men.
His gaze fell on Xie Cishu. Just as he was hesitating whether to thick-skinnedly ask for his WeChat or something, a colleague came over and patted his shoulder.
“Shen Wu, Table 7 is calling you to deliver drinks.”
