Chapter 17: The Cannon Fodder in a Dogblood Novel (17)
When Shen Tangqing arrived at the “Oak Whispers” Winery, it was almost nine o’clock.
He didn’t rush to find trouble with Xiao Yu, but turned to the restroom first.
Just as he pushed open the restroom door, he saw a “silver-haired beauty” leaning against the sink in a relaxed posture, eyes lowered, holding a thin cigarette.
Hearing the sound from the door, “she” looked up and stared calmly at Shen Tangqing for a few seconds.
Shen Tangqing: “…”
“Sorry, I seem to have walked into the wrong restroom.” Shen Tangqing felt he had never been this embarrassed in his life.
He quickly turned to walk out, then looked up at the signâ
Uh.
I didn’t go wrong!
He turned back, standing at the door smiling awkwardly at the “beauty.” “Umâsorry, this seems to be the men’s room.”
Bo Nian’s gaze landed on Shen Tangqing. He didn’t rush to reply. Instead, he raised his hand, held the cigarette between his thin red lips, took a drag, and slowly exhaled the smoke.
He hooked his lips into a faint smile, lips parting lightly. “I don’t recall saying this was the ladies’ room either.” His speech was slow, carrying a careless tone.
It was a man’s voice.
Shen Tangqing was stunned.
The person in front of me is actually a man?
His gaze sized up the person in front of him again. Wearing a smoky pink silk shirt with three pearl buttons hanging at the collar.
The slightly open curve revealed a slender collarbone. The shirt hem was tucked into milky white high-waisted suit trousers. A satin belt of the same color as the trousers was tied at the waist, making the waistline look graspable.
Of course, what misled Shen Tangqing the most was his waist-length silver hair. A few strands of broken hair fell on his forehead, covering a bit of his brow. His features were exquisitely androgynous.
Simply a look that killed both men and women.
Thisâreally can’t blame me for mistaking him!
“Sorry sir, my eyes are a bit bad, please don’t mind.”
The man scoffed lightly, straightened up, and hooked his lips into a wicked smile. “What to do? I mind quite a bit. I, for one, hate it most when others mistake me for a woman.”
Shen Tangqing looked awkward.
If you don’t like being mistaken for a woman, don’t dress so androgynously! And keeping long hair, it’s easy to mislead people!
But asking himself, if he were mistaken for a woman, he wouldn’t be happy either.
“I am truly sorry. I formally apologize to you again, hope you can forgive my presumption.”
The man’s gaze fell on Shen Tangqing’s face, a trace of playfulness flashing in his eyes. He seemed to have found an interesting toy.
He threw the half-smoked cigarette into the sink.
It made a slight sizzle. After slowly turning on the water to flush it down, he turned his head to look at Shen Tangqing with a beaming smile, as if changing his face instantly.
“It doesn’t matter. I was joking with you just now. Are you here to play?”
Shen Tangqing felt he asked a useless question. Coming to a winery if not to play, then what? To sleep?
However, looking at this person’s face, Shen Tangqing was still very good-tempered.
It was truly beautiful, very friendly to the eyes. Especially that waist-length silver hair; he didn’t look like a 3D person, but rather a stunning youth who walked out of 2D.
People always have a bit more patience for beautiful things.
“Mn, yes, here to play.” Shen Tangqing paused for a second after speaking. “Um, I’m a bit urgent, I’ll use the restroom first.”
The man was stunned for a moment.
Then, fragmented laughter scattered in his peach blossom eyes. “Okay, please go ahead.”
Shen Tangqing then walked in quickly.
However, the man didn’t leave. Instead, he leaned back against the sink position behind him.
Shen Tangqing ignored him; he was really a bit urgent.
Coming out of the innermost stall after finishing.
The man was holding another thin cigarette, smoking.
His smoking posture was very good-looking. Two thin lips gently held the cigarette filter. After inhaling lightly, he slowly exhaled the smoke. A few strands of silver hair hung by his cheek, adding a touch of messy beauty to him.
Very lustful.
It was that kind of beautiful lust that made one’s heart itch.
Easily attracting people’s line of sight.
…
Hearing footsteps.
The man lifted his eyelids and turned to look at Shen Tangqing. “Done peeing?”
Shen Tangqing: “…”
Asking such a vulgar question with such a beautiful face feels weird no matter how you look at it.
After giving a “Mn,” he walked to the sink next to the man and turned on the water to wash his hands.
The man looked at him with interest. “Does little brother smoke?”
“Don’t smoke, thanks.”
“Is it your first time playing here?”
Shen Tangqing nodded and pulled two paper towels to dry his hands.
After throwing the paper ball into the trash can, Shen Tangqing looked at the man. “UmâSir, take your time smoking, I’ll go first.”
The man suddenly stopped him. “Little brother, do you know what the most famous cocktail here is?”
Regarding this baffling question, Shen Tangqing also felt quite baffled. “What?”
“Flirtatious.”
The man looked at him. The aggression in his eyes made Shen Tangqing frown uncontrollably.
Although speculating about others is impolite,
This person really gave him the feeling of a gay man.
“Oh, got it. I’ll taste it if I get the chance. I’m leaving first, help yourself.”
Just as Shen Tangqing prepared to leave,
The man took a long stride.
Blocking Shen Tangqing’s path. Relying on his height advantage, he maliciously closed the distance between them.
He lowered his head slightly, leaning close to Shen Tangqing. His breath seemed to land by Shen Tangqing’s ear.
The thin heat dissipated, evoking a numbness, more erotic than ambiguity.
“What’s the rush, little brother? we haven’t finished chatting!”
After speaking, he chuckled lightly, his tone carrying threads of temptation. “I mean, I know how to mix it. How about I treat you to a glass?”
In a place like this,
There are only two scenarios when a stranger treats you to a drink.
First: He has his eyes on you and wants to pick you up.
Second: There is no second!
Shen Tangqing’s face sank.
He determined in his heart that the guy in front of him was ninety-nine percent gay, and a gay man who wanted to pick him up at that.
He looked up, looking at the man with a cold expression. “Move aside, I’m not interested in you.”
The smile on the man’s face didn’t diminish; it even deepened a bit.
“Haven’t even gotten to know each other, how do you know you’re not interested? Iâam quite interested in you.”
After speaking, he extended a finger intending to tap Shen Tangqing’s chest. This was also an ambiguous action carrying certain implications.
But unfortunately, Shen Tangqing dodged it.
Shen Tangqing quickly moved two steps to the side. His face wasn’t just sunken; it was black!
He really hated these self-righteous gay men.
“I said, I’m not interested in you. Don’t force me to get physical.”
The smile on the man’s lips froze in place.
The charm he thought would captivate thousands of young men failed completely in front of Shen Tangqing.
Encountering such a huge Waterloo the first time he actively showed favor to someone, he was a little angry!
But as his gaze fell on Shen Tangqing’s face, that gloom dissipated a bit.
Meeting someone who interested him for the first time, he should be a bit more tolerant.
