Chapter 17
Mr. Jiang, I Miss You
Li Weiran was extremely efficient. She said she had resources, and that very night she gave Chi Yuan several clips, saying they were for auditioning.
Huang Kai was shocked: "You already have a job on your very first day after signing the contract?"
Chi Yuan was somewhat pleased and smiled, giving a soft "hmm".
Huang Kai finally said something nice about Jiang Haochen: "This is the right attitude for being a sugar daddy. Unlike before, when he just slept with her."
Speaking of Jiang Haochen, Chi Yuan hesitated and said, "Huang Kai, do you think I should send Mr. Jiang a message to thank him?"
Huang Kai nodded: "That's necessary. Once you've received the resources, you should definitely tell him and express your satisfaction. Also, tell him that you can now work for him."
Chi Yuan exclaimed, "Service!"
Huang Kai: "You're so stupid! You two are in a sugar daddy/sugar baby relationship now. The sugar daddy is paying you, so shouldn't you be providing services?"
Chi Yuan said "Oh," realizing what he meant, "But isn't it a bit inappropriate to rush into something like this?"
He was very happy to serve Mr. Jiang, but he always felt that being too enthusiastic was not quite right.
Huang Kai: "What's wrong with that? No man dislikes taking the initiative. Look at those straight men, they say those girls in nightclubs are promiscuous, but have you ever seen one of them refuse? Besides, when a sugar daddy provides resources, he's paying for that kind of thing, so you have to take the initiative. Otherwise, if they're not satisfied with your service, they'll switch to someone else in a heartbeat."
Although Huang Kai complained that Jiang Haochen was stingy and Chi Yuan was too proactive, it was because he considered Chi Yuan a friend and felt that Chi Yuan's sincerity had been reciprocated unfairly. However, from an outsider's perspective, Chi Yuan was definitely not at a disadvantage by associating with Jiang Haochen. Especially in this industry, if Chi Yuan seized the opportunity Jiang Haochen offered, his life could be completely transformed.
What does true affection matter? It's not as important as a promising future.
Upon hearing this, Chi Yuan immediately became nervous: "Then I'll send it now, how do I send it?"
Huang Kai: "To put it bluntly, just tell him you miss him and ask if you can come see him tonight. Then I'll do your makeup, and you can take a shower, get yourself all clean, and then come to his door."
Although this wasn't the first time he'd done it, this time it felt like he'd been paid for sex, making Chi Yuan feel awkward. But the thought that if he didn't do this, Mr. Jiang would find someone else, Chi Yuan overcame his psychological pressure and started sending messages: {Mr. Jiang, I miss you. Can I come see you tonight?}
After editing the message, Chi Yuan sent it with his eyes closed, and then dared not open them for a long time.
Meanwhile, Jiang Haochen was at a bar.
Cui Dong had a beautiful woman in his arms, and a fair-skinned young man was holding a bottle of wine and about to sit down next to Jiang Haochen.
Jiang Haochen didn't refuse. The young man smiled slightly and offered a toast: "Mr. Jiang, I'll have a drink with you."
The bar owner came over and introduced Jiang Haochen: "This is my new guy, a third-year student at H University, and he's still a virgin."
The boy looked embarrassed, but his eyes remained fixed on Jiang Haochen.
Jiang Haochen glanced at him: "A college student, huh? Why aren't you studying properly and instead coming to a place like this?"
The bar owner looked at the boy and said, "You tell Mr. Jiang yourself."
The boy whispered, "My family is poor, so I wanted to do some part-time work."
Jiang Haochen: "With so many part-time jobs, why did you end up here?"
The boy was stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment.
The bar owner chuckled and smoothed things over, saying, "This kid originally came to the bar as a waiter. I brought him here because I thought he was good-looking. If it weren't for your decent appearance, even a university student wouldn't have considered you."
The meaning is quite straightforward: they're legitimate college students doing a legitimate part-time job, and they came voluntarily because they think you're good-looking. They like you as a person, not for the money.
Jiang Haochen gave a half-smile.
The bar owner sat down next to him and whispered, "So, what do you think? Is he your type? This kid's short on money, and it's his first time, so just consider it a good deed."
Jiang Haochen: "How do you prove it was your first time?"
The boy was extremely embarrassed: "Mr. Jiang, I... this is really my first time."
Just as Jiang Haochen was about to speak, his phone suddenly rang. He picked it up, glanced at it, and smiled.
I've finally learned how to message him.
Jiang Haochen: "You should introduce him to someone else; we recently got one at home."
After saying that, Jiang Haochen got up and left. Behind him, the boy's resentful eyes almost overflowed.
Jiang Haochen gave a sarcastic smile. His eyes had been glued to him the moment he entered; his intentions were too obvious. Jiang Haochen didn't dislike people with ulterior motives, provided he liked them. Strangely enough, even though they both had ulterior motives, Chi Yuan, who had even told him his purpose, still seemed remarkably innocent.
Who the hell can I reason with?
The bar owner looked at Cui Dong: "What do you mean? Jiang Haochen is keeping a mistress?"
Cui Dong: "Yes, it's fresh."
The bar owner was surprised: "That's rare. Since that incident, he doesn't seem to have maintained a long-term romantic relationship."
Cui Dong: "People say this is keeping a pet, not that kind of thing."
Bar owner: "Then you don't need to remain chaste for the sake of a little affair."
Cui Dong glanced at the boy beside him and said without any hesitation, "That's the person you chose. He's far inferior to his mistress."
The boy's face turned pale instantly, so embarrassed he wished he could disappear into the ground.
The bar owner didn't seem to mind: "That's true, everyone in your circle is good-looking. But at least the ones here are clean."
Cui Dong scoffed, "Clean? How do you prove it? Men don't have a woman's hymen. You can only guarantee that this is his first time selling himself here. Can you guarantee he hasn't sold himself elsewhere?"
Bar owner: "That's true."
The boy couldn't take it anymore and turned to leave the booth.
The two noticed, but neither paid any attention. If you've chosen to sell yourself, you have to be prepared; if you can't even handle this little bit of hardship, you shouldn't be doing it.
Jiang Haochen left the bar and called Chi Yuan: "Where are you?"
Chi Yuan honestly replied, "At home."
Jiang Haochen: "Where do you live?"
Chi Yuan gave an address.
Jiang Haochen said, "I've come to pick you up."
Chi Yuan dared not let Jiang Haochen pick him up: "No need, I can go by myself, I don't want to trouble you."
Jiang Haochen: "Are you so afraid of me going over because you're afraid of bothering me, or because you're afraid I'll see something I shouldn't?"
Chi Yuan immediately fell silent: "Then... then you do it."
Half an hour later, Jiang Haochen arrived at the apartment building.
The apartment buildings are very old, nearly thirty years old, with poor landscaping, poor sanitation, and even the lights in the apartment buildings are out of order.
But when the boy ran down from upstairs and stood in the dark doorway, Jiang Haochen glanced over and suddenly felt that the neighborhood looked newer.
The boy's hair was wet, and he smelled faintly of perfume.
Jiang Haochen didn't like the smell: "Did you wear perfume?"
Chi Yuan felt a little awkward, as if someone of Jiang Haochen's status shouldn't be standing in such a cramped neighborhood: "Yes, I sprayed a little."
Huang Kai said this is a perfume that can evoke feelings and emotions.
Jiang Haochen: "I don't like it."
He often smelled this in bars; it didn't suit Chi Yuan.
Chi Yuan was a little embarrassed: "Then...then I'll go upstairs and take another shower."
Jiang Haochen: "Forget it, come wash at my place."
Just as Chi Yuan was about to get into the passenger seat, Jiang Haochen suddenly asked him, "Can you drive?"
Chi Yuan nodded: "Yes."
Jiang Haochen: "You drive."
Chi Yuan said "Oh" and got into the driver's seat.
Jiang Haochen observed the boy's expression. There was no joy in the boy's eyes, and he seemed uninterested in being able to drive such a luxury car.
In this situation, either the person doesn't like cars, or they've seen them too many times.
Jiang Haochen asked, "Do you like cars?"
Chi Yuan suddenly remembered the domineering CEO dramas he had watched. Whenever the domineering CEO asked this question, he would always give his girlfriend a car.
Is Mr. Jiang going to give me his car?
No, I can't accept any more gifts from Mr. Jiang.
Chi Yuan: "I don't like it."
Jiang Haochen smiled and gave him an address.
Chi Yuan asked in surprise, "It's not an apartment."
Jiang Haochen: "I also have a villa around here, but I haven't been there in a long time."
Chi Yuan didn't ask any more questions and drove towards the villa.
