My Arranged Marriage Partner Has Two Faces 28


Chapter 28

Things had come to this point, there was no use dwelling on it. Enjoying the moment was the right path. Xi Shi gave in. “I’ll be on top!”

What stood between them wasn’t just the definition of their relationship, but also the position. There was no way he would be on the bottom. As for Zhong Yuxiao… Xi Shi tried to widen his eyes, attempting to see his expression in the darkness.

The nerdy, old-fashioned man might compromise, but the experienced Night definitely wouldn’t.

“What are you thinking about? Can you stop filling your mind with worldly desires?” Zhong Yuxiao criticized seriously. He twisted his wrist, broke free from his grip, and with lightning speed, grabbed his vital point. “To repay your kindness of coming to cover me with a blanket in the middle of the night, I’ve decided to give you some pleasure.”

His hand moved slightly.

Xi Shi shuddered, a vein throbbing on his forehead. “You, you motherfucker!”

Why the cursing?

Zhong Yuxiao clicked his tongue. “Disappointed because the little sheep doesn’t want to eat grass anymore?”

“…”

“Fuck off!” The young master’s voice was distorted with anger and pain. “Disappointed my ass! It fucking hurts! Haven’t you ever jerked off before? Your grip is so strong, I think you’re jealous of my size and want to cripple me!”

Zhong Yuxiao was stunned by the outburst, then burst into laughter.

His chest vibrated, the laughter transmitted through their close contact to Xi Shi, who felt a tingling sensation spreading through his chest, as if stung by a bee. He was silent for two seconds, then couldn’t help but curse with a smile.

“Fuck, you did that on purpose?!”

Zhong Yuxiao nuzzled his shoulder, his voice filled with amusement from his laughter. “Xiao Cao Xi, I really didn’t mean to.”

He rarely took care of himself that way. When he was in the mood, he would either find someone or wait for it to subside naturally. He had strong self-control and wouldn’t allow himself to fall into the embarrassing situation of masturbation.

In this aspect, Zhong Yuxiao was almost abnormal.

“Besides, only those who are inferior are jealous. Me—” Zhong Yuxiao chuckled, his meaning clear. “In this aspect, I have nothing to be jealous of you for.”

Xi Shi: “…”

Knowing when to stop, Zhong Yuxiao tried to lighten his touch. He was truly inexperienced. Before half a minute had passed, Xi Shi couldn’t take it anymore and called a stop, hissing and gasping. “I still think you’re jealous of me.”

He sounded quite aggrieved.

Zhong Yuxiao was also aggrieved. “Let me try again, I’ll definitely improve.”

“Do you think I’m a lab rat?”

Xi Shi pushed him away irritably. Zhong Yuxiao let go and lay down on the bed.

From the beginning, he hadn’t intended to force Xi Shi. His pride wouldn’t allow him to do such a thing. A forcibly plucked moon would lose its brilliance. He preferred a moon that willingly came to him.

He wanted the moon to willingly fall into his arms.

“Tsk, I’ll only teach you once, learn carefully.”

Zhong Yuxiao froze. His loose pajama pants were easily pulled down. He instinctively turned on the light. Warm white light poured down from the ceiling, and he saw Xi Shi’s suddenly widened eyes.

Their eyes met, and Xi Shi’s face quickly flushed crimson, like spreading cinnabar.

Xi Shi turned to run, but Zhong Yuxiao reacted quickly, grabbing his wrist and pulling him back. They fell onto the bed together, the wooden bed creaking under their weight.

Zhong Yuxiao turned off the light, his voice soft. “I’ll learn carefully.”

He squeezed Xi Shi’s hand, the implication clear.

Darkness gave people courage, and the burgeoning desire fueled recklessness. Reason and composure were completely abandoned, fermenting in the spreading scent of musk, becoming a tacit indulgence.


While paying the bill, Zhong Yuxiao and Xi Shi disappeared. Xu Linfeng was apprehensive and only called Zhong Yuxiao the next day.

“Night, are you okay?”

Zhong Yuxiao hummed in agreement, his tone cheerful. “I’m fine.”

“Is Young Master Xi okay?”

The osmanthus flowers in the vase had been replaced with roses. Zhong Yuxiao glanced at the breakfast on the table. Xi Shi had bought too much again, even more leftovers than last time. Not only were there steamed buns, but also sandwiches, both Chinese and Western style.

“He should be fine too.”

Xi Shi wasn’t home when he woke up this morning. Besides breakfast, there was also a note on the table, pink.

[I went to work. I bought too much breakfast, take care of it.]

Signed with the young master’s flamboyant signature.

“Should?” Xu Linfeng gasped. “You two didn’t fight last night, did you?”

Zhong Yuxiao paused. Last night, he wanted to test his learning results, but the lab rat wasn’t cooperative, so they had a bit of a tussle. “No, almost. What’s wrong?”

“No, nothing.”

It was good that they didn’t fight. Xu Linfeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. “I really didn’t expect to run into Young Master Xi last night. If I had known, I wouldn’t have prepared that surprise.”

Zhong Yuxiao put his phone on the table, eating breakfast while listening to him complain. After Xu Linfeng finished talking about last night, he mentioned the Xu family.

“My grandfather isn’t doing well. He was a bit more lucid today and asked me to go work at the company. I’m not cut out for that.” Then he changed the subject. “Night, is your Young Master Xi going to Linjiang Fang for a business dinner tonight?”

“I don’t know.”

He hadn’t asked about Xi Shi’s work matters.

Zhong Yuxiao took a sip of water. “Do you have business with him?”

Xu Linfeng wouldn’t mention Xi Shi for no reason. Since it involved a business dinner, it must be related to company business. He heard that the Xu family wanted to develop a new product line, and in Lincheng, Chenxi International was the best partner.

Zhong Yuxiao picked up his phone. “If you need, I can help you arrange a meeting with him.”

“Really?” Xu Linfeng was overjoyed and spilled everything. “There’s a project I want to get investment for, and that Xu Chengyue has his eyes on Chenxi International. He arranged a dinner with the company’s executives at Linjiang Fang tonight. You know, that place is a notorious den of iniquity, with everything from eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling… I figured with your relationship with Young Master Xi, there’s no way you would let him go to that kind of place.”

After hanging up, Zhong Yuxiao immediately sent Xi Shi a message.

[What are you doing?]

Xi Shi quickly sent a picture. It was the assistant hired by Xi Chongyang, giving him a private lesson. Besides signing necessary documents, Xi Shi was learning company management with the assistant’s help.

[Gold-Inlaid Jade Radish: Anyone who becomes a teacher becomes hideous.]

Teacher Zhong raised his eyebrows. This was a veiled insult.

[I have some work matters to discuss with you, see you at the company.]

He changed Xi Shi’s contact name.

[Xiao Cao Xi: Please contact my assistant for work matters.]

[Xiao Cao Xi: smile.jpg]

Zhong Yuxiao chuckled and pressed the voice message button. “Then let’s not talk about work, let’s talk about personal matters. I’ll be at the company in about half an hour. Please make time to see me, CEO Xi, otherwise I’ll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau and sue you for taking advantage of legal loopholes to enter a sham marriage.”

He didn’t have classes today and could take a break.

“CEO Xi, this is a threat.”

[Xiao Cao Xi: …]

Zhong Yuxiao changed his clothes. When he picked up the black-framed glasses he had been wearing recently, he paused, didn’t put them on, and threw them in the trash. Then he took out another pair.

Gold-rimmed, the plain glasses he often wore abroad, without prescription.

Zhong Yuxiao didn’t need glasses; they were just an accessory. He wore them more often after returning to China to look more mature.

While hailing a taxi at the entrance of his apartment complex, the security guard called out, “Are you the resident of Unit 1, 10th floor? There’s a package for you.”

Zhong Yuxiao checked the address. It was correct, but the contact information wasn’t his, it was Xi Shi’s. It was probably something he bought online, a large box, the contents not specified on the slip, shipped discreetly.

Zhong Yuxiao didn’t think much of it, gave his authorization, and had it delivered upstairs.

Downstairs at Chenxi International, the receptionist immediately came up to greet him. “CEO Xi instructed me to wait for you here. Madam Xi, please follow me.”

“…”

Zhong Yuxiao’s eyelids twitched. “Madam?”

The receptionist couldn’t help but smile, giving him an apologetic look. “CEO Xi specifically instructed me to address you as such. Please forgive me, Madam.”

Zhong Yuxiao was silent for two seconds, a bad feeling creeping in.

The CEO’s private elevator went straight to the top floor. As soon as the doors opened, he saw the employees standing there, each holding an A4 sheet of paper with large printed characters in SimSun font, forming a sentence – Welcome, Madam, to our company!

The entire secretarial team stood in formation, and upon seeing Zhong Yuxiao, they immediately greeted him respectfully. “Warmly welcome Madam to our company!”

Their voices were loud, and Zhong Yuxiao felt his vision darken repeatedly.

Xi Shi stood behind the secretaries, holding his phone and laughing loudly. He had recorded Zhong Yuxiao’s stunned expression.

“You’re really something.” As soon as they entered the office, Zhong Yuxiao’s face fell. “CEO Xi, you’re quite playful.”

Xi Shi glanced at him, then at the video on his phone, and laughed even harder. “Just so-so, you flatter me, Madam.”

“…”

“Give me your phone.” Zhong Yuxiao extended his hand.

The usually calm and collected Second Young Master Zhong looked slightly flustered. Xi Shi didn’t miss the slight blush on his ears, curled his lips, and locked his phone in the drawer.

He then picked up the prepared coffee and placed it in Zhong Yuxiao’s hand. “Specially prepared for you, cappuccino, double sugar.”

On the day of their blind date, Zhong Yuxiao had put two packets of sugar in his coffee.

The aroma of coffee mixed with the sweet scent of milk, and Zhong Yuxiao’s brow relaxed. “Is this CEO Xi’s way of treating guests?”

His words had a double meaning, and Xi Shi understood, playing dumb. “You’re here to threaten me, so you’re not a guest.”

So, he was still holding a grudge.

Zhong Yuxiao took a sip of coffee, the milk making the bitter and sweet flavors blend more smoothly. “Where’s your hideous assistant?”

“He stepped aside when he heard Teacher Zhong was coming.” Xi Shi said with a playful smile.

Since their mutual “assistance” last night, the atmosphere between them had changed. They teased and joked, like when they first got married, but it was much more ambiguous now.

If they were in a normal relationship, all their current behavior could be summed up in one word – flirting.

“I’m not here to be a teacher today, I’m here to threaten you.” Zhong Yuxiao put down the coffee. “Tonight at seven, Dingxiang Restaurant, treat me to dinner.”

Xi Shi was amused. He hadn’t realized Zhong Er was so domineering. “Unfortunately, I have an appointment tonight.”

His assistant had reported his schedule this morning. He had a business dinner tonight.

“At Linjiang Fang?”

“How did you know?”

As soon as he spoke, Xi Shi realized. “Xu Linfeng told you?”

The Xu family was hosting, and they had booked a table at Linjiang Fang. The person in charge was Xu Chengyue.

Although he didn’t like that person, business matters couldn’t be influenced by personal feelings. Xi Shi didn’t plan to cancel. Since he had decided to work at the company, he would do it properly.

“He’s quite the gossip.”

Zhong Yuxiao nodded in agreement. “I’m here to intercept. Cancel the appointment with Xu Chengyue.”

Xi Shi lifted his chin, acting aloof. “Give me a reason.”

“Isn’t me enough?” Zhong Yuxiao feigned surprise. “I thought with our relationship, you would choose me without hesitation.”

“What is our relationship?”

This question brought them back to the bar, when Zhong Yuxiao said they were in a forced arranged marriage.

Xi Shi stared at him, refusing to budge until he got a satisfactory answer.

Zhong Yuxiao pushed his glasses up. Clothes make the man. With the gold-rimmed glasses, he didn’t look like a dean of students at all, but rather a refined and handsome gentleman, the type who would be chosen by a princess as her consort in ancient times.

Xi Shi’s throat bobbed, and he licked his lips.

Besides legs, he seemed to have developed another fetish.

“We are, of course, the kind of relationship where you sneak into my bed in the middle of the ni—”

Before he could finish the word “night,” the secretary interrupted them by pushing the door open.

“CEO Xi, it’s bad… I’m sorry.” The secretary quickly closed the door, then opened it again two seconds later. “CEO Xi, a lady named Xi Le barged into the company. She claims to be your aunt and is causing a scene downstairs, demanding to see you.”

She brought bodyguards with her, aggressive and unstoppable, even the security guards couldn’t hold her back.

Xi Shi’s face instantly darkened. “I won’t see her, throw her out. If she continues to harass us, call the police.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Wait.”

The secretary blinked. “Don’t worry, CEO Xi, I didn’t hear anything.”

“…” Xi Shi choked, remembering Zhong Yuxiao’s interrupted words, and coughed lightly. “Inform Shi Fengsheng to come back and deal with his family matters.”

Xi Shi’s mood visibly worsened because of Xi Le’s appearance, and Zhong Yuxiao stopped joking. “Old Master Xu prefers Xu Linfeng, you can consider collaborating with him.”

Xu Chengyue’s reputation was too bad, and his invitation to Linjiang Fang was clearly suspicious. Collaborating with him was undoubtedly playing with fire.

In comparison, Xu Linfeng, although a bit foolish, seemed sincere and reliable.

Xi Shi was noncommittal. “I don’t need the Xu family’s project.”

“It’s not just a project, it’s also an opportunity. If Xu Linfeng takes over, the Xu family will become a long-term partner of Chenxi International.”

In ancient times, this would be considered a meritorious service, a win-win situation. Even if Xu Linfeng lost, with him involved, the impact on Xi Shi and Chenxi International wouldn’t be too significant.

“He asked me to help arrange a meeting with you.”

“Xu Linfeng has such a good relationship with you.” Xi Shi sneered. “He sends you male dancers, and you send him resources. You two are closer than brothers.”

He wasn’t even this attentive to Zhong Zhili!

“Could it be that you’re jealous?” Zhong Yuxiao’s expression was subtle. This sarcastic tone, there was no way he wasn’t jealous.

“So what if I am, so what if I’m not? I won’t help Xu Linfeng anyway.” Xi Shi said stubbornly. “You don’t have to arrange a meeting for him, I won’t go.”

“Alright.”

Zhong Yuxiao sat down in the reception area, picked up his coffee, and drank it silently.

Xi Shi waited for a while, but he didn’t speak nor leave, so he couldn’t help but ask, “What are you doing?”

“Waiting for you to get off work.”

“I told you I have a business dinner.”

“The food at Linjiang Fang isn’t good, Xu Chengyue has ulterior motives, Xu Linfeng is a better partner…” Zhong Yuxiao paused and spread his hands helplessly. “Since these excuses can’t move you, I have no choice but to wait for you.”

He said they were excuses, and Xu Linfeng was just an excuse.

Xi Shi’s breathing unconsciously quickened. “Wait for me to do what?”

“Wait for you to change your mind and accept my dinner invitation.”

Zhong Yuxiao put down his cup, the coffee already finished. He licked his lips. “I didn’t have enough last night. I’m here to threaten you today, and what I want isn’t a cup of coffee.”

He was a seasoned player in the love scene, his level higher than anyone he had ever met.

Xi Shi’s heart itched, pretending not to understand. “Then what do you want?”

“I want you…” Zhong Yuxiao drew out his words, then suddenly smiled. “…to treat me to dinner.”

Xi Shi: “…”

Fuck.

Seeing his expression darken, Zhong Yuxiao added slowly, “And after dinner, treat me to a kiss.”


My Arranged Marriage Partner Has Two Faces

My Arranged Marriage Partner Has Two Faces

书名:联姻对象有两副嘴脸
Status: Completed Author: Native Language: Chinese

Forced into an arranged marriage and living under the same roof, they establish three rules: maintain a superficial husband-husband relationship and divorce amicably after a year.

One day, Xi Shi is drinking with friends at a bar, complaining incessantly: "My arranged marriage partner is a weirdo. White shirt, black glasses, thermos full of goji berries, old-fashioned, abstinent, and no fun. He's in bed by ten every night. Ugh, even looking at him makes me lose my appetite."

Neon lights flash. A friend stares at a man in a booth: "Holy crap, that guy is so handsome! He's a god!"

Xi Shi glances over dismissively and instantly turns to stone.

Still in the same white shirt, but without his glasses, his prim and proper arranged marriage partner is being given a lap dance.

Xi Shi, feeling utterly betrayed, rips the dancer off Zhong Yuxiao: "Get lost."

The people in the booth tease: "Oh, which little lover is this who came looking for you? Spicy."

"My wife."

"...Doesn't seem like your type."

The man looks up, his voice languid: "Indeed, not my type."

"An arranged marriage partner forced on me by my family."

Xi Shi laughs in anger: Fuck.

This arranged marriage partner of his is interesting.
