Chapter 2

Chapter Warning= Homophobic slur (just a little)

I promise CC gets better, he grows on ya 

(also, I realized that I have quite a few rapid/bad mouthed ml’s in my future projects….this isn’t my type of fav?? Oh well, they fun in their own way)

It had already passed lunchtime, and as such the hospital halls didn’t have many people. They were empty and very empty so when Xu Nian passed by that glass bridge he thoughtlessly gave it a glance.

Of course Chen Di remembered Xu Nian. Not only did he remember him, it could be said that his impression of him was very deep. After all, a secretary like him with so many years under his belt would be completely unruffled by most situations, and although that night was an unexpected incident, it still made him more or less feel quite awkward.

“……” Chen Di was holding his phone up as he and Xu Nian stared at each other. He didn’t even have the time to school his features into a polite expression before the youth had already reacted first and politely smiled at him.

While Chen Di watched Xu Nian pass him by, he continued to respectfully nod and bow to the person he was phoning. “Okay, okay…….yes, yes, it’s all been resolved….”

“The reservation for tonight at the club has been made as well, Young master Qin will definitely come…..”

“Find a boy? But sir, aren’t you……”

“No no no……of course that’s not what I meant…..but where will I find a clean university male student……” Chen Di paused, then slowly raised his head. Xu Nian was standing in front of him, and in his hand was a pen.

The youth revealed a beautiful smile. “Excuse me, sir, did you drop this?”

Xu Nian obediently oh’d.

Chen Di glanced at him through the back mirror. “The boss is a germaphobe, so don’t carelessly touch him. Also, when you touch things use a handkerchief to separate it from your hand, after using it then throw it away.”

“……they have to be thrown away even if they’ve only been used once?” 

Chen Di’s face was hard. “If sir tells you to throw it then you throw it, don’t ask unnecessary questions.”

Xu Nian：“……”

Chen Di continued, “If the sir gifts you something then just accept it, don’t think about things like saving money, or not wanting to waste or something like that. If the sir hears that he’ll be unhappy.”

“……” Xu Nian thought about it then said, “So just shop till you drop?” 

Chen Di choked, yet couldn’t readily find a way to refute right at that moment.

Xu Nian ceased asking questions, and motioned for Chen Di to continue talking.

“Anyways.” Chen Di coughed. “If you stay with the mister for a while you’ll understand. Although it’s a bit hard, the mister won’t treat you badly.”

During this trip, in this pair, one spoke the entire time and the other listened. What’s more, since it was the afternoon rush hour where people got off work, there were many traffic jams. Chen Di took out some perfume out of nowhere and spritzed some on Xu Nian, making him overbearingly sweet smelling. When they had finally arrived at the high-class club’s door night had already fallen. 

Chen Di first brought Xu Nian over to the living room, and once again advised him not to speak too much or out of turn. Xu Nian followed behind him and felt like he was like a concubine following a eunuch on the way to enter the palace and wait on the emperor….

The guest room was one of those luxurious suites. Chen Di told Xu Nian to stand by the entrance and wait, then took off his shoes and stepped onto the carpet and went in himself.  After waiting for a while, the so-called benefactor came out, only wearing a robe.

So he was taking a shower earlier….Xu Nian thought, as he watched the other party walking towards him. He was much younger than what he had thought, and his figure was muscular and tall. What’s more, his features were very manly. His bangs hadn’t been dried yet, and had been pushed up, revealing the man’s forehead. His feet were bare, and left wet footprints on the carpet.

“Did you bring your student ID?” 

“?” Xu Nian thought he’d misheard him.

“Your student ID.” The man furrowed his brows, and slowly said, one word at a time.Then he looked over to Chen Di and said, “Didn’t I tell you to find a university student?”

Chen Di bowed. “Yes, yes you did. He really is a university student…..”

Xu Nian took out his ID from his pocket. “I brought it. Sir, do you want to see?” 

The benefactor looked at him, gaze picky. Xu Nian raised his head and tried his best to appear neither weak nor pushy. He smiled slightly and handed over his student ID.

The man did not seem to have any intention of taking it.

Xu Nian immediately understood. He got some tissues from the coffee table, then covered his palm with them and placed his student ID on top. It was only then that the other party lazily reached over and took the card, then flipped it around with disdain.

Xu Nian：“……” 

“You go to B university?” The man threw a glance at Xu Nian.

Xu Nian replied, “I just got in this year.”

The man snorted in derision. “Even B uni’s students are coming out to sell themselves, huh.”

Xu Nian didn’t say anything, but his smile faded a little. 

Chen Di asked, “Mr. Cheng, do you think he’s ok?”

Cheng Chen coldly hmmphed. He then pointed at Xu Nian and ordered, “You, go take a shower.”

Xu Nian blinked.

Cheng Chen face was full of disgust. “What are you doing, covering yourself in perfume, do you take yourself for a ‘sweet girl’? Fucking homo.” 

Xu Nian：“……”

When Xu Nian finished showering and had come out, he found that Cheng Chen had already left. Only Chen Di was waiting for him. He blow dried his hair, then went over to the secretary. Mr. Secretary looked at him in a slightly awkward way.

Xu Nian raised an eyebrow. “Isn’t….Mr. Cheng gay?

Chen Di sighed. “Actually our boss….is homophobic.” 

“……” Xu Nian felt like it was really bizarre. “Then why is he looking for a boy?”

Chen Di said, troubled, “You see, our boss is really sensitive about upholding his reputation. Recently he’s been having business with wealthy heirs, who’ve all been doing this….it’s popular….”

Xu Nian didn’t understand. “What does that have to do with keeping face? …..that he even needs to torment himself like this…”

“It’s a long story.” Chen Di patted Xu Nian’s shoulder and said in an ‘I’ve got experience’ voice, “You’ll start understanding in the future.” 

Xu Nian: “……..”

Rinrin: Surprise! It’s a triple posting! I thought about it, and I was really worried that ppl would hate/have a bad impression of CC  if I just left things on ch. 2….so I decided to finish the whole first day of their meeting so y’all see how he is

He’s really just an idiot, and isn’t bad….really
