Help! My Fanservice Partner is Looking at Me Differently Lately - Chapter 35

Chi Li let out a light laugh, finally losing some of the intense aggression he held during the day. “Let’s talk, then.”

“Everything I said outside the door just now is true.” Zhou Yang looked at Chi Li with deep affection. “I am very certain that my heart is with you.”

“Do not look at me with those eyes.” Chi Li felt like vomiting from being watched like that.

“Xiao Li.” Zhou Yang reined it in slightly, but his tone remained abnormally gentle. “I have thought it through. While I sell the CP act with Xie Weishui, it actually does not hinder me from selling one with you, too.”

Chi Li: “Oh? You are not afraid of being scolded?”

This despicable person; even now, he is thinking about having his cake and eating it too. How could he have such a thick skin?

“What of it? Being scolded is still publicity.” After staying in the training house for less than ten days, Zhou Yang’s air of superiority had completely vanished. “Besides, audiences nowadays love to watch love triangles and high-stakes drama!”

Love triangles and high-stakes drama. Audiences did indeed love to watch those, but—

“Are you even worthy?”

According to Zhou Yang’s logic, that would mean he wanted Xie Weishui and Chi Li to compete for his favor, wouldn’t it?

“I am, of course, worthy.” Zhou Yang smiled confidently.

He stood up slowly and, under Chi Li’s confused and perplexed gaze, took off his shirt.

Chi Li: “?”

We are just talking, so why are you suddenly showcasing pork?

“Actually, you regret it a lot, right?” Zhou Yang pretended to pose casually. “Back when we were dating, I never even took off my clothes in front of you.”

“It is a good thing you did not.” Chi Li covered his eyes, unable to keep pretending to be gentle and kind any longer. “I am a Muslim; I do not eat pork.”

Zhou Yang did not react yet. “It is so late; where would there be pork? Besides, you are clearly Han Chinese.”

Chi Li: “The pig just spoke.”

Having to consider the other party’s level of education when mocking them later is truly difficult for him.

“You.” Zhou Yang was choked with anger, but then a thought struck him, and he confidently puffed out his chest. “If you do not eat pork, does that mean you want to eat something else?”

Chi Li knew full well that this “something else” would definitely not be anything good. Just as he was about to refuse, Zhou Yang grabbed his wrist and forcibly pulled down the hand covering his eyes.

What followed into his field of vision was something hideous.

Chi Li’s pupils shrank, and his stomach began to churn. Seeing it in person was ten thousand times more disgusting than seeing it in a photo. He clenched his fist and swung it with force.

Zhou Yang, who had suffered a loss the night before, had been on guard. He retreated, dodging the attack.

“Xiao Li.” Zhou Yang was not angry; instead, he said triumphantly, “Is this how you treat your own food?”

Chi Li looked around, searching for a suitable weapon.

Zhou Yang was immersed in his self-promotion: “I have seen countless films and learned many techniques. I guarantee I can make you die of pleasure. Are you really not going to try?”

Chi Li pulled a utility knife from the desk drawer. He raised it to his eyes and slowly pushed out the blade. “I can try to see if this blade is sharp.”

The blade emitted a cold glint.

Zhou Yang’s body trembled involuntarily, but he refused to concede verbally. “Playing the game of saying one thing and meaning another is boring. Be honest. I feel good, and you will feel good too.”

“You?” Chi Li’s gaze moved down, and his eyes gradually became disdainful.

Physical threats cannot drive you away, right? Then do not blame him for being sharp-tongued.

“What is wrong with me!” When it concerned a man’s dignity, Zhou Yang naturally reacted instantly. “Am I not capable?”

Chi Li slowly extended a pinky finger. “Not even as capable as this.”

“You.”

Just as Zhou Yang intended to step forward to compete with Chi Li, he heard a commotion at the door. He turned his head and saw Shen Xunye, that eyesore, standing there.

“It is so late, what are you doing in Chi Li’s room?” Zhou Yang issued the first challenge.

Shen Xunye walked into the room, shut the door behind him, swept a gaze over Zhou Yang’s naked torso, and commented casually, “Millet chili.”

Only then did Zhou Yang realize he was still naked and hurriedly pulled up his pants.

He pretended to be calm and composed. “Since you have seen it, I will not hide it anymore. Chi Li and I are in a relationship, so it is normal for me to appear in his room. What are you here for?”

Chi Li rebutted irritably, “We broke up ages ago!”

Shen Xunye strolled inside slowly. “He invited me.”

Zhou Yang: “Invited?”

After only a few steps, Shen Xunye reached Chi Li’s side. “That is right. Could it be that you came uninvited?”

“Good, Chi Li.” Zhou Yang pulled his shirt over his head, so angry that it took a great effort to crawl out. “I knew you were a lecherous one. It is so late, and you are calling a strange man to your room, just because he looks more handsome than me, right?”

Chi Li: “There is no need to repeat the obvious.”

“Huh?” Zhou Yang almost could not catch his breath and began to disparage him: “You… he, he looks good but is useless!”

“Better than you, who is neither good-looking nor useful.” Chi Li hummed lightly, curled the corner of his mouth, squinted, and raised his pinky finger.

Zhou Yang immediately bristled. “Do you believe that I will report you to the show crew for messing around?”

Chi Li picked up the phone that was standing aside and shook it at Zhou Yang. “Do you want to guess if there is a video of you taking off your pants to harass me in here?”

“You, despicable!”

“Get lost.” Chi Li’s expression turned cold. “Do not stay here and disturb us.”

“Very well!” Zhou Yang nodded continuously in anger. As he walked out, he looked back. “I will be waiting for you to see that the goods do not match the description later, and then regret chasing me away!”

Shen Xunye waved his hand at him. “Rest assured, I provide quality assurance here.”

“Bah.”

The bedroom door was slammed shut by Zhou Yang with a thunderous bang.

The room returned to silence instantly.

Chi Li put the utility knife back into the drawer and explained to Shen Xunye with some embarrassment:

“Zhou Yang came to find me, and I was afraid something uncontrollable would happen, which is why I called you over. The situation was urgent, so I did not explain in detail.”

“Hmm.” Shen Xunye nodded lightly. “I did not misunderstand.”

Although when he first received the message, some unhealthy conjectures had indeed appeared in his mind, those conjectures were all negated one by one during the 10-minute wait.

“Also.” Chi Li shut the drawer properly and tapped his finger on it twice. “Zhou Yang and I used to date.”

Shen Xunye: “I could tell.”

“I came here just to make his life difficult.” Chi Li explained to Shen Xunye, “But I do not know if he took the wrong medicine or what; no matter how harshly I cursed him, he still thought I had lingering feelings for him; and just now, he even wanted to sleep with me.”

“Oversized ego.” Shen Xunye hit the nail on the head.

Something that was exclusively yours in the past and was not considered very precious suddenly shines in another place; naturally, it will breed regret.

“Therefore, I just let him misunderstand my reason for calling you.” Chi Li smoothed the stray hair by his ear with some awkwardness. “Actually, I just wanted to use you to block him; it is not like I really wanted to mess around with you.”
