After the Straight Male Incubus Became a Heartthrob - Chapter 7

Ye Lin quickly released his grip. “We were just having a spat. Do not misunderstand.”

Sheng Shao looked at the red marks on his wrist where he had been grabbed, appearing thoughtful.

Liang Wenle pulled Ye Lin behind him, holding him there firmly. Looking at Sheng Shao’s face, he was reminded of how he had lost to him again today. For a moment, he did not know what to say.

Sheng Shao spoke calmly, “Your boyfriend has a very violent temper. Remember to keep a close eye on him in the future.”

With that, he turned and walked away, his tall figure receding like a stately cedar tree.

Liang Wenle was in no rush to leave. He turned to Ye Lin and pointed at the space between his brows, demanding an explanation. “What were you just doing with Sheng Shao? Tell the truth.”

Ye Lin’s mind raced through several scenarios before he found the right words. “I was just provoking him. He said a person like me is pitiful and that you must have a major headache dating me. I pretended to be angry and tried to pick a fight, but he insisted on leaving, so I had to grab his hand.”

Liang Wenle remained skeptical. “Is that so? Why do I feel like you are using me to get close to Sheng Shao?”

Ye Lin immediately made a gesture as if taking an oath. “It is true. I can swear it. I am completely straight; it is absolutely impossible for me to like men, let alone Sheng Shao.”

Seeing the determination in Ye Lin’s eyes, Liang Wenle believed him. After all, if Sheng Shao did not like him but liked a fool like Ye Lin instead, it would imply that Liang Wenle could not even compete with a fool—an idea he found unacceptable.

Ye Lin continued to add, “See? He thinks being with me gives you a headache. That shows he cares about you and is dissatisfied that you are dating me. He definitely likes you.”

Liang Wenle’s interest was instantly piqued. “You have a point. If he did not care about me, why would he say such things? He really is just pretending.”

Seeing him happy, Ye Lin took the opportunity to make a request. “You saw how much effort I put in today. It is time to settle the payment. Everyone knows how generous Young Master Liang is; I am sure you are willing to give a little extra.”

Liang Wenle looked at his money-grubbing expression with disdain, but he still transferred one million yuan to him. To him, such an amount was essentially pocket change.

The moment he received the notification for the one million yuan transfer, Ye Lin was so excited he nearly jumped for joy, repeatedly praising Liang Wenle’s generosity and kindness. He felt that following Liang Wenle was a much faster way to get money than that broken Succubus System.

A young wealthy man suddenly walked in. Seeing the couple standing there, he looked confused but nonetheless invited Liang Wenle to a pool party that evening.

A pool party would surely be filled with wealthy, handsome elite. It would be a perfect chance to make more connections. Moreover, such occasions were bound to be full of beautiful women and fit men.

Ye Lin’s eyes lit up the moment he heard this. He grabbed Liang Wenle’s hand. “Wenle, I have never been to a place like that. Let us go to the pool party tonight; it sounds very interesting.”

Liang Wenle wanted to scold him for being uncultured, but then he remembered that Ye Lin was his titular boyfriend. To maintain his image of being considerate, he played along with a pampered tone. “Fine, fine. We will go to the pool party tonight.”

The pool party was held at a seaside villa. The villa was exquisitely designed in a classical Western style, resembling a modern castle—magnificent and grand.

A bright moon hung in the sky, its light spreading over every inch of the villa like a silver veil. The massive open-air swimming pool looked like a gemstone, with water so clear you could see the bottom, shimmering with ripples.

The pool was filled with beautiful men and women in swimwear; any one of them could have been a top-tier influencer. They played and frolicked in the water, sending up splashes of joy.

The scenes he had witnessed in the bar private rooms before were minor compared to this. Inside this villa, he finally understood the true meaning of a life of luxury and debauchery.

Ye Lin stared at the crowd in the pool and downed a glass of champagne to steady his nerves. Some people recognized him and wondered what kind of talent allowed him to sit beside Liang Wenle. Although they felt dissatisfied, they remained silent out of fear of Liang Wenle.

Liang Wenle noticed Ye Lin staring at the pool. “What? Do you want to go in and play?”

Ye Lin nodded honestly. “A little. I have never seen a scene like this before. There are so many beautiful women.”

Liang Wenle sneered, unable to resist mocking him. “Go ahead and play. No beautiful woman is going to like you anyway. Who told you to have no money or power?”

Having tasted the sweetness of a million yuan today, Ye Lin had long since abandoned his pride. Even if he was unhappy with Liang Wenle, he leaned toward him with a flattering smile. “Wenle is my money and my power.”

As he leaned in, he carried a faint fragrance, appearing as soft as if he had no bones. Despite the clumsy flattery, Liang Wenle’s heart rate quickened. He immediately pushed Ye Lin away and stammered a curse, “You—you idiot! Stay away from me!”

Ye Lin refused. He even reached out to interlock their fingers, reminding him in a low voice, “Are we not supposed to be dating in name? If you tell me to stay away, we will be exposed, right?”

Feeling the heat in his palm, Liang Wenle could not help but snap, “You are doing this on purpose!”

Doing these misleading actions on purpose, getting close on purpose, and causing fluster on purpose!

A tall woman in swimwear stood on a high point, holding a yellow ball. She shouted to the people in the pool, “I am going to throw it! Whoever catches the ball gets a kiss from me!”

Ye Lin stood up excitedly, ignoring Liang Wenle, and hurried into the pool to join the catch. He had lived in small places all his life and then worked in an electronics factory; he could count the number of beautiful women he had seen on one hand. To him, the woman tonight was top-tier beauty. Getting a kiss from her would mean he could die with no regrets.

Seeing the infatuation in Ye Lin’s eyes, an inexplicable fire rose within Liang Wenle. He knew perfectly well that Ye Lin was straight and would be interested in girls. They were only in a contract relationship, and there was no need to care about who the other person liked. But at this moment, he felt a sense of betrayal.

Just a moment ago, Ye Lin was worried about being exposed and was leaning on his shoulder acting coquettishly; now, at the sight of a beautiful woman, he was rushing over. It was infuriating!

Liang Wenle’s expression gradually darkened as a plan for revenge formed in his mind. He quickly walked toward a few of his wealthy friends, intending to teach Ye Lin a lesson.

The woman in the swimwear threw the ball high into the air and watched it fall. The pool instantly became a chaotic mess. Water splashed everywhere, soaking the edges, and the various colors of swimwear mixed into a blur.

Ye Lin locked onto the position of the yellow ball and ran toward it desperately. He was tripped several times along the way and fell into the water, but he still managed to grab the yellow ball.

Everyone was surprised that he caught it, including Liang Wenle himself. The people in the pool had been instructed to trip Ye Lin and stop him from getting the ball. They did not expect his willpower to be so strong; despite falling many times, he still succeeded.

The situation became awkward. The woman and the others looked at Liang Wenle, waiting for his lead.

When Ye Lin caught the ball, he suddenly realized he was currently Liang Wenle’s boyfriend and probably should not have grabbed it. He had to hand the ball to a guy next to him, laughing dryly. “Uh, I was just joining the fun for a bit. Here, you take it.”

Liang Wenle’s face was grim as he stared fixedly at the ball, though his hands were busy fiddling with a wine glass. “Since you caught it, keep it. Everyone is here to have fun today anyway.”

Seeing his attitude soften and noticing that Sheng Shao was nowhere to be seen, Ye Lin realized Liang Wenle would not bother him tonight. He walked toward the woman.

The woman smiled, stepped out of the pool, and said to him, “I am quite shy. Follow me.”

Ye Lin held the ball and followed her happily, not stopping to think why a seemingly bold woman would suddenly become bashful. They entered a room in the villa, cutting off the noise from the pool. There was a bed in front of them, which naturally led to certain thoughts.

The woman pretended to be shy and bit her lip. “Could you close your eyes first? Do not open them until I tell you to.”

Ye Lin immediately closed his eyes and promised, “Do not worry. As long as you do not allow it, I will definitely not open my eyes.”

After a while, his hands were pulled behind his back and handcuffed. What is she doing? Is this more than just a kiss? Does she want to do something else?

Ye Lin was too curious. He peeked through a slit of his eyes and found that all the lights in the room had been turned off. He could only see a vague shadow in front of him. It must be her; she must have a specific fetish.

Ye Lin excitedly lunged forward to kiss her. Feeling the softness, he wanted to go further. But very quickly, he was slapped across the face.

The slap stung, but it carried a fragrance. Ye Lin did not curse; instead, he confessed, “You can hit me or kick me. I like it all.”

“Ye Lin, you really are a shameless slut!”

Hearing the familiar voice, Ye Lin instantly lost his drive. He even felt a sense of fear. “It—it is Wenle…”

The lights in the room came on, revealing Liang Wenle standing in front of him. He was both angry and embarrassed, his cheeks flushed red. His eyes held a complex mix of emotions: resentment, shame, and surprise.

At the thought that he had actively kissed a man, Ye Lin wanted to run to the toilet and vomit. But facing Liang Wenle, he had to force himself to stay calm. “Wenle, why are you here?”

Liang Wenle rubbed his lips hard as if he had been violated, shouting loudly, “You idiot! You were flirting with others in public, and now you want to do this kind of thing? Do you want to die?”

It seemed the woman had been sent away by Liang Wenle. He truly had a high reputation among the socialites; he was not someone to be offended.

Ye Lin felt innocent. “You agreed to it in public. Besides, Sheng Shao was not around, so I thought you really agreed. How was I supposed to know you would suddenly come in?”

Liang Wenle had originally planned to handcuff Ye Lin and give him a beating to teach him a lesson and make him realize his place. Who knew he would get kissed!

Liang Wenle had never been kissed before. He could still remember the sensation of Ye Lin’s kiss; it was soft and warm. In short, it was very strange.

He flew into a rage out of shame and ordered Ye Lin, “Kneel down right now and admit your mistake! You have made me so angry!”

Ye Lin loved money most of all. He knelt down readily, pretending to repent, and the words flowed easily: “I am such a jerk for actually violating Wenle! I deserve to die! Wenle, please forgive me. I will never dare to do it again.”
