The boyfriend was truly troublesome.

It wasn’t as if they hadn’t seen each other for a long time.

Although there was filming every day, when they both got home, they still had time to be with each other.

Speaking of which… he hadn’t evened the score with Fu Sichen for the princess hug. It was high time to teach the boyfriend who was the top party and who was the bottom party.

But that was just what Pei Zhen thought; his action betrayed him as he punched out the details of the night’s social event on his mobile and sent them to Fu Sichen.

In the entertainment circle, there was never a lack of social events.

Although Pei Zhen was lazy, he was street smart and knew he had to play his part.

He was quick to get into character when acting and had good technical skills. Hence even though he had more scenes to cover, he completed them ahead of the other actors.

As the Best Actor candidate, he had to do the necessary niceties to secure his own future. Hence, he hosted the banquet.

Xiao Nian had booked a private function room at the hotel restaurant earlier on. The group of them drank a lot and ate very little, inevitably getting themselves quite intoxicated.

Drunk.

Pei Zhen had a few glasses, and his face was flushed, his peach blossom eyes heavy. At a glance, he was irresistibly charming.

“Pei Zhen, I’ve not seen a person more suitable to be an actor than you,” said the drunk director, who was speaking quite frivolously. “I… I believe you’ll surely get the Best Actor award.”

Pei Zhen acknowledged the comment in a distracted manner. He glanced at his mobile now and then. Pei Zhen had a proud disposition and spoke arrogantly, “Of course, being such an accomplished actor.”

Everyone was taken aback by the response and immediately laughed.

“Indeed the Pei Zhen we know, and only you’d have that level of self-confidence.”

“Haha, that’s what he himself says, and it’d also be Pei Zhen alone who dares to be confrontational with the reporters.”

“Previously there was a reporter who mistook a young actor for Pei Zhen and what did Pei Zhen say to the reporter?”

“Are you blind, or are you having a brain…”

Everyone was waiting for the word ‘fart’, but Pei Zhen suddenly jumped when his mobile on the table vibrated.

As expected, it was Fu Sichen: [I’m at the hotel entrance.]

Pei Zhen immediately got up, his sudden movement inadvertently causing the table behind to sway and topple over with a crash, waking up a few drunk people. Everyone looked at Pei Zhen in surprise and saw a gentle smile spread across his face.

“Sorry, I need the bathroom.”

Saying that and ignoring the reaction of the crowd, Pei Zhen swept out of the room like a gust of wind.

The door opened and shut, Pei Zhen had disappeared. The director hesitated for a while and pulled Xiao Nian aside to speak privately. “Mr. Xiao, is Pei Zhen in love?” He then revealed that a friend’s daughter had wanted to know Pei Zhen’s availability status.

Xiao Nian was rather drunk and blurry-eyed. “No, Pei Pei is like me, a swinging bachelor.”

The director was suitably pleased to hear that.

But what Xiao Nian, the straightest man in the universe didn’t realize, was that his Daddy Pei had secretly been seeing somebody and was as bent as a mosquito coil.

As Pei Zhen reached the back entrance of the hotel, he was suddenly grabbed and pulled into the murky darkness. Following that, an intense kiss pressed against his lips.

That familiar breath. The moment their lips met, they started to lose control.

How strange.

Was heterosexual love just as murky?

“Stop. Stop kissing…” Pei Zhen felt the blood rushing to his face, and his body was giving way. His voice was hoarse like his throat was on fire. It aroused Fu Sichen even more.

Fu Sichen encircled his arms around Pei Zhen and drew him close, laughing as he teased, “Just one more kiss.”

“No, more kissing and things will get out of control.” Pei Zhen hadn’t even figured out exactly how things between two men worked. “I don’t want it to be painful for you.”

Fu Sichen froze at the mention of that.
