Chapter 51

Various "Tools"

After having lunch with Chi Yuan, Jiang Haochen went to work. Until he left, he didn't hear any requests from Chi Yuan.

Thinking that the boy might be embarrassed, he didn't press him further and instead instructed Assistant Chen to handle the matter.

Jiang Haochen: "Chen Qing, ask Chi Yuan if he has any needs. He's too embarrassed to mention it to me."

Chen Qing was somewhat surprised. When Chi Yuan came to ask yesterday, President Jiang clearly showed displeasure. How could his attitude have changed so drastically overnight?

It seems Mr. Chi used some kung fu last night.

Chen Qing: "Okay."

Chen Qing had experience with this kind of thing. In the past, those minor celebrities would come to make demands the day after they finished with President Jiang. Some would make demands themselves, and some would have their agents make them. It was always the same old stuff.

Just as he was hesitating whether to contact Chi Yuan directly or his manager, Chi Yuan's message came through.

Chen Qing revealed a knowing look and opened WeChat.

"Assistant Chen, when would Mr. Jiang likely need me?"

Chi Yuanfa's message was well thought out. Although Mr. Jiang's attitude towards him had returned to normal, his impatience when he saw him at the door yesterday was genuine.

Chi Yuan wasn't afraid of anything except Mr. Jiang disliking him, so he didn't want to repeat the same mistake.

After waiting for a while without receiving a reply from Assistant Chen, Chi Yuan became uneasy.

Was it too abrupt to ask this question? Should I give Assistant Chen a gift first? That's how it's always portrayed in TV dramas; to get along with the CEO, you have to win over the assistant first.

Just as Chi Yuan was thinking about how to give a gift, Assistant Chen had already gone to find Jiang Haochen.

Assistant Chen: "President Jiang, please rent a luxury apartment for Mr. Chi. He's already quite famous, so it's not appropriate for him to stay where he is now. He needs a place with better privacy. Also, it will be more convenient for you to visit him whenever you want."

Jiang Haochen had never thought of this before. This was the first time he had hired someone. In the past, he would just sleep in a hotel and leave, but he had never brought someone home before.

Thinking about how the boy had always left with wrinkled clothes and carefully avoided disturbing his place, Jiang Haochen realized that he had indeed been inconsiderate.

Jiang Haochen: "Let him move into the apartment upstairs from my house, and help him decorate it."

Move upstairs?

Assistant Chen: "Isn't this a bit too close?"

Jiang Haochen replied matter-of-factly, "It's more convenient if it's closer."

Assistant Chen: "..."

He began to wonder what Chi Yuan had done yesterday to make his boss, Mr. Jiang, lose his mind again.

A mistress isn't a boyfriend. How can you keep her so close without any precautions? Aren't you afraid of being caught red-handed and blackmailed? Look around, who keeps a mistress at their doorstep?

Assistant Chen thought he should remind him, but just as he was about to speak, his boss said again, "Get some loungewear for Chi Yuan. He seems to like my pajamas, so let's buy one from the same brand."

Assistant Chen decided not to say anything more.

The boss is currently in a good mood, so it would be a thankless task to talk about it now.

"Okay, I'll get on it right now."

After leaving the office, Assistant Chen called Chi Yuan: "Mr. Chi, President Jiang has prepared an apartment for you. Please pack your things in the next couple of days, and I will let you know when it's ready to move in."

Chi Yuan was stunned for a long time: "Move."

Assistant Chen: "You don't have to move; you can just pack some things and move over. Mr. Jiang will come directly to this apartment when he needs you. You just need to make sure you're there when he needs you."

Chi Yuan immediately understood: "Okay, thank you."

Assistant Chen: "No need."

After hanging up the phone, Assistant Chen got to work. As an excellent president's assistant, his work ability must be outstanding.

He first went online to find a cleaning service to do the cleaning, and then started looking up what he needed to prepare to furnish the room.

Chen Qing is a straight man. He doesn't know much about what two men need when they're together, so he put on an alias, infiltrated a gay group, and humbly sought advice.

"I've started a relationship with a lover, and we're planning to live together. What should I prepare in the room?"

The group members were very enthusiastic.

"How old is the person upstairs, the one above or the one below?"

"Being kept by a sugar daddy/sugar baby? That guy must be really rich."

"How can you be sure it's your brother? It could be your godfather."

"My godfather usually doesn't have much stamina, so the first thing I need to prepare is those little blue pills, hehe~~"

Chen Qing read these messages with the mindset of preparing for graduate school entrance exams, and calmly replied: "Thirty years old, above."

Assistant Chen didn't know if they needed any pills or anything like that, and even if he did, he wouldn't dare to buy them on his own.

"Is he handsome? Does he have abs?"

"How much does it cost to keep a younger brother for a month? I'll do it if it's higher than my salary."

Some teased, while others offered advice.

"Since it's a sugar daddy arrangement, you have to enjoy yourself, so bring on all sorts of tools."

A whole bunch of tools of all kinds came downstairs.

Assistant Chen picked a few items that didn't seem too outrageous and placed an order for them.

"Buy a bed with a mirror, and do it this way~~~hehehe~~"

"Holy crap, this is a must-have! I've always wanted to buy one, but my house is too small to fit it. And the lighting in hotels is too dim."

"Are you renovating? If not, replace the bedroom's floor-to-ceiling window with a one-way window, so that people inside can see out, but people outside can't see in."

"Holy crap, that's genius."

"Just thinking about it is exciting."

"If your little lover is shy, she'll definitely cry if she sees outside."

"It was both crying and tense."

Assistant Chen's expression, which had been strained during his graduate school entrance exam preparation, finally crumbled. This entertainment circle is truly chaotic.

Renovation is definitely out of the question, cross that out.

"Since it's a sugar daddy arrangement, the mistress should be quite good-looking. Pick out some clothes she likes and take her home for a dress-up game."

"Master, please punish me. I accidentally broke the plate again."

……

During the hour Chen Qing spent infiltrating the gay group, his worldview crumbled several times. After following President Jiang for two years, this was the first time he felt that money was really damn hard to earn.

Assistant Chen was incredibly efficient; he had the apartment ready the very next day and notified Chi Yuan to move in.

Chi Yuan was shocked when he saw the address, and even doubted whether Assistant Chen had given him the wrong one. He only dared to believe it was real when he arrived at the place.

The apartment he's moving into is upstairs from Mr. Jiang's.

Chen Qing hadn't seen Chi Yuan for a while, and he had to admit that rosy cheeks do a good job of making one look more refined than before.

Chen Qing: "You'll be living here from now on. Here's a piece of advice: once you've moved in, don't go down here easily."

Chi Yuan understood that Mr. Jiang had asked him to move here not only because it was close by, but also because he felt it was inconvenient to go to his home: "I understand."

Assistant Chen: "Please check the room. If there's anything else you need, just let me know."

Chi Yuan didn't actually need anything; he had brought everything he needed himself. But since Assistant Chen said so, he just went through the motions and took a look.

The living room was clearly visible. Chi Yuan entered the master bedroom, where the first thing he saw was a huge bed covered with various mirrors.

Assistant Chen observed Chi Yuan's expression and, seeing that he was expressionless, admired him, thinking that he was a worldly man.

Little did he know that although Chi Yuan was a person, he had never been in the circle and his knowledge was less than that of the person who had been undercover for an hour.

Chi Yuan opened the wardrobe and saw a pile of clothes inside, turning around in surprise.

Assistant Chen: "The clothes that President Jiang bought for you."

The one Mr. Jiang bought looks very similar to the one he has at home. Is it from the same brand?

Thinking about this possibility, Chi Yuan felt a sweet warmth in his heart.

Chi Yuan: "We have everything, we lack nothing."

Seeing that Chi Yuan said this, Assistant Chen prepared to leave, but before leaving, he reminded him, "There are some things in the drawer that you can take a look at yourself."

Chi Yuan readily agreed. After Assistant Chen left, he curiously rummaged through the bedroom cabinet and found a drawer full of "small tools".

Chi Yuan was startled and quickly closed the drawer, but then he remembered that this was something Mr. Jiang liked...

He mustered his courage and opened it again, blushing as he began to study how to use it.
