Upon hearing the voice, Mu Qingyan knew that the person who came to pester him was Luo Wenzhe.
The breath that came out of Luo Wenzhe’s mouth as he spoke, mixed with alcohol and the strong smell of tobacco, made Mu Qingyan feel nauseous.
“Get lost.” Mu Qingyan disgustedly pried away Luo Wenzhe’s hand that was holding onto him.
Luo Wenzhe hugged him tighter and flattered, “I booked a presidential suite in this hotel. I’ll take you there so you can sleep comfortably.”
Although Mu Qingyan was drunk, his mind was not muddled, and he naturally knew why Luo Wenzhe wanted to take him away. He also knew it was not as simple as just sleeping.
This made him even more repulsed.
“Let’s go.” Luo Wenzhe held onto Mu Qingyan’s body and led him towards a less crowded aisle.
He wanted to take advantage of Mu Qingyan and if successful, he could hook up with the young master of the Mu Group, and gain more wealth and resources. Even if it wasn’t successful, he could use the photos he took secretly in the room to extort a sum of money.
This perfect plan resounded loudly in Luo Wenzhe’s mind.
Previously, he had tried several times to invite Mu Qingyan to a bar when they were on the set, but it was not successful. This opportunity was rare, and he had to firmly grasp it!
“I said, get lost!”
Under the influence of alcohol, Mu Qingyan was particularly irritable. He saw Luo Wenzhe taking advantage of him, turned around and threw a punch, heavily hitting Luo Wenzhe’s face!
“Uh!”
Luo Wenzhe did not expect Mu Qingyan’s strength to be so strong. He stumbled back several steps and blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.
He wiped the blood from his mouth with the back of his hand, thinking that after suffering this loss, he must take down Mu Qingyan. But before he could stand up, he saw a man with a crazy and menacing look appear behind Mu Qingyan.
Ji Liyun’s expression was cold and terrifying, as if he was so angry that he wanted to kill someone. Luo Wenzhe was scared and kept backing away.
“What do you want to do?” He lifted Luo Wenzhe’s collar like holding a chick.
“I… I saw Mr. Mu was drunk and wanted to help him back,” Luo Wenzhe explained hastily.
“Oh?” Ji Liyun turned his head to look at the drunkard Mu Qingyan leaning against the wall and asked in a gentle voice, “Did he say that?”
Mu Qingyan narrowed his eyes and said slowly, “No, he wanted to take me to a hotel.”
Luo Wenzhe: “…”
Upon hearing this, Ji Liyun turned his head back and looked at Luo Wenzhe with a smile that was more terrifying than his usual icy expression. To Luo Wenzhe, this expression was a hundred times scarier and made him so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.
“I was wrong, President Ji. I will never have such disgusting thoughts again.” Luo Wenzhe pleaded repeatedly.
Ji Liyun had no intention of letting him go. Instead, he lifted his hand and choked Luo Wenzhe’s collar so tightly that he could hardly breathe. He said, “I already hinted to you not to have any crooked ideas about him. I didn’t expect you to be so bold.”
“I…” Luo Wenzhe’s mouth was full of blood and his face was red, completely different from his elegant appearance on the screen.
At this time, another customer walked by, and Ji Liyun, mindful of his identity, didn’t want to do anything more. So, he threw Luo Wenzhe to the ground and said coldly, “Don’t appear in front of me again.”
While Ji Liyun was still not changing his mind, Luo Wenzhe quickly got up from the ground and ran away in a sorry state.
“Hey? Isn’t that Luo Wenzhe?”
“Yes, why is he disheveled?”
“It looks like he was beaten…”
“It seems like there’s going to be some gossip. Let’s wait for tonight’s entertainment news.”
In the lobby of the first floor, the onlookers saw Luo Wenzhe running out of the hotel and started talking.
Ji Liyun opened his phone and directly called Wen Ye, “Suppress the news about Luo Wenzhe being beaten tonight. Yes, I punched him…”
Mu Qingyan looked at Ji Liyun and thought, “I was the one who hit him, but how did it become you who hit him? Why do you have to take the blame for me?”
“Ah Yan got drunk, I’ll take him home. Can you handle the wrap-up work for the wrap party here? Alright, that’s settled.”
After saying that, Ji Liyun hung up the phone and helped Mu Qingyan, who was leaning against the wall like a pile of mud, and said, “Let’s go, I’ll take you home.”
“I’m not going,” Mu Qingyan said, struggling like a spoiled child, “why do you always have to arrange things for me? I’m not going this time!”
Ji Liyun knew he was just drunk and throwing a tantrum, and couldn’t help but laugh. But he gently persuaded, “Do you want to stand by this wall all night? Waiting for fans to come and ask for your autograph?”
“I want to feel the northwest wind!” Mu Qingyan said unhappily.
“Okay, okay,” Ji Liyun signaled the security guard nearby to prevent strangers from taking pictures, and continued to coax, “how about we go somewhere else to feel the northwest wind?”
When Mu Qingyan didn’t answer, he said again, “There’s a rooftop coffee bar on the 20th floor here. Although it’s already past business hours, I can have the manager come and open it. Or I can have the driver bring the DB11 over and take you for a ride?”
The DB11 was Ji Liyun’s new car. He didn’t particularly like sports cars, but he bought it after hearing Mu Qingyan say it was cool and had yet to drive it.
Mu Qingyan thought for a long time, but because he was drunk, his brain wasn’t working properly and it took him a while to spit out two words stiffly: “Whatever.”
“Okay,” Ji Liyun smiled and took Mu Qingyan’s hand, saying, “I’ll have the driver bring the car over. Before he arrives, let’s go to the rooftop and feel the breeze.”
“Oh,” Mu Qingyan obediently followed Ji Liyun to the 20th floor. When the hotel manager heard that Mr. Ji wanted to go to the coffee bar, he quickly led a few waiters to reopen it for them.
Because it was already November, the night wind was chilly and made Mu Qingyan regret saying he wanted to feel the northwest wind.
Seeing this, Ji Liyun smiled and said, “How about we don’t do that. It’s quite cold tonight.”
Mu Qingyan was still unhappy and didn’t respond.
“Let me tell you, stay away from Luo Wenzhe…” Ji Liyun stood side by side with Mu Qingyan, his arm touching his, although he said it like that, there was no hint of blame.
Mu Qingyan was already holding back some anger, and now it was instantly ignited by the alcohol in his body. “I know, I’m already trying to stay away as much as possible. And as a friend, are you caring too much?”
He looked at Ji Liyun’s surprised expression and couldn’t help but say, “Why do you care so much about me?”
Although he was clearly throwing a tantrum, Ji Liyun just found him cute and, looking into his eyes, said confidently, “Because I like you. I don’t just want to be your friend.”
“I already said this on the Holy Island, but you passed out and fell asleep before you could hear me. I don’t know if you remember,” said Ji Liyun.
“So he really likes me?”
“But…,” Mu Qingyan was about to blurt out something that didn’t concern him personally, but Ji Liyun didn’t give him the chance.
Because his breath was getting closer and closer, and his warm lips had already covered Mu Qingyan’s.
Before he could react, Ji Liyun gently hugged Mu Qingyan.
The unique and light scent of his cologne enveloped Mu Qingyan’s entire body.
Author’s note:
Ji Liyun: Yes, we kissed. That’s right, I made the first move. (Proud.jpg)
lol while this is cute it kimda annoys me that Luo Wenzhe is (rightfully) treated as scum for trying to tale advantage of our drunk MC, while ML is doing the same thing and that’s okay bc he’s the ML and that’s ~cute~ or whatever. how about actually taking the drunk MC home and talking with him/kissing him when he can actually consent? *eye roll*
Totally agree. Ml is doing essentially the same thing as Luo Wenzhe but its ok because he is the ml and “loves” mc.
Also, how can he love the person who died so much that when he is reborn, he dedicates himself to try to save them, then not notice that their personality is so drastically different, its a different person? Like, he doesn’t seem to love the original person as much as he thinks he does
