Chapter 4 Shura Field and His Taste
——＜A romantic dividing line＞
Blue Bay Restaurant, one of the city's top revolving restaurants, is famous for its romantic atmosphere and dazzling night views.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Su Yan stood at the door of the restaurant, feeling that he was not here to eat, but to be executed. He took several deep breaths before mustering the courage to walk in.
After telling Huo Shen's name, the waiter respectfully led him to a great seat by the window.
From a distance, Su Yan saw the scene that was enough to suffocate anyone who knew about it.
Su Chen and Lin Qingyu were already seated at a table. The atmosphere between them seemed subtly awkward, but generally harmonious. At another table next to theirs, Huo Shen was alone, gracefully swirling his red wine glass, watching the "plot unfolding" at the next table with interest.
Su Yan walked over with gritted teeth.
"Brother, Mr. Lin." He greeted his family first, his voice a little dry.
When Su Chen saw him, he was obviously stunned: "Xiaoyan? Why are you here?" Lin Qingyu also looked at him with confusion.
Before Su Yan could come up with an excuse, the lazy and dangerous voice from the next table rang out: "I invited him here."
Huo Shen put down his wine glass and waved to Su Yan, his movements as natural as if they were the protagonists of tonight's date: "Come and sit, little one."
Su Chen's face darkened instantly, and he looked at Su Yan with a look of scrutiny and confusion. Lin Qingyu lowered his head nervously, and the atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point.
Su Yan felt like he was being roasted on a fire. He struggled to move to the seat opposite Huo Shen and sat down, feeling very uncomfortable.
"Mr. Huo, what do you mean?" Su Chen's voice was as cold as ice.
Huo Shen chuckled, but his eyes were fixed on Su Yan, who was curled up in a ball. "It's nothing special. I just happened to meet your brother and thought he was very interesting, so I invited him to dinner. Mr. Su, you wouldn't even interfere with your brother's friendships, right?"
This is simply a distortion of right and wrong! Su Yan roared inwardly, who would be friends with you!
(òó)
Su Chen was choked. Obviously, he didn't want to conflict with Huo Shen in public. He could only glare at Su Yan coldly, and stopped talking. Instead, he talked to Lin Qingyu in a low voice, but he was obviously absent-minded.
Su Yan found the meal bland. He kept his head down the entire time, concentrating on cutting the steak on his plate, almost wanting to bury his face in it.
Huo Shen, however, seemed quite at ease. He didn't bother Su Yan much, but mostly just watched him quietly, occasionally commenting on the dishes or saying something that was ambiguous but always managed to hit Su Yan's nerves.
"The steaks here are cooked well, but... they don't seem as delicious as yours looks." Huo Shen cut off a small piece of beef and said meaningfully.
Su Yan's hand trembled and the fork almost fell on the table.
He could clearly feel the probing and dissatisfied gaze of his brother at the next table, and he could also feel Huo Shen's gaze wrapped around him like a substance. He felt like he was about to split apart.
At this moment, Lin Qingyu stood up and said he wanted to go to the bathroom, as if to ease the embarrassment.
Su Yan seized the opportunity and stood up immediately: "I, I'll go too!" He urgently needed a space to catch his breath.
In the bathroom, Su Yan splashed cold water on his face, looked at his pale face in the mirror, and tried to calm his heartbeat.
Suddenly, the bathroom door was pushed open. Through the mirror, Su Yan saw Huo Shen's tall figure walk in, and he casually hung a "Cleaning" sign outside the door, and then... locked the door!
"!" Su Yan turned around abruptly, his back pressed tightly against the cold sink, and looked at the approaching man in horror.
"Are you hiding from me?" Huo Shen walked up to him, the two of them so close they could feel each other's breath. He stretched out his hand, his fingertips gently brushing Su Yan's cheek, which was wet and looked even more attractive.
Su Yan's whole body was stiff. He wanted to hide, but there was nowhere to hide.
"Huo Shen! What on earth do you want to do?!" Extreme fear gave rise to a trace of courage. Su Yan raised his head and glared at him. "Is it fun for you to tease me like this?"
Huo Shen looked at his eyes, which were sparkling with anger, and smiled. This time, his smile was less playful and more genuinely interested.
"Interesting." He answered affirmatively, sliding his fingers down and pinching Su Yan's chin. The force was not strong, but it carried an unquestionable sense of control. "It's much more interesting than watching those two people who followed the routine."
His gaze fell on Su Yan's lips, which were trembling slightly due to nervousness, and his eyes darkened.
"I've changed my mind." Huo Shen whispered, his voice carrying a bewitching magnetism. "Instead of letting you go to great lengths to bring them together, why not..."
He leaned down, his warm lips almost touching Su Yan's earlobe, and said word by word in a declarative tone:
"You take his place."
Su Yan's pupils suddenly shrank, and his mind went blank: "...Replacing who?"
Huo Shen chuckled softly and finally gave the answer that frightened Su Yan to death:
"Replace Lin Qingyu and become the object of my interest."
The moment the words fell, before Su Yan could react, Huo Shen suddenly lowered his head and grabbed his lips.
It was a kiss filled with aggression and possessiveness, so overbearing that it left no room for compromise. Su Yan's eyes widened, his brain completely shut down, leaving only the burning sensation on his lips and the cold yet alluring aura of Huo Shen.
"Ouch..." He struggled subconsciously, but Huo Shen easily grabbed his hands and pressed them on the sink.
The kiss didn't last long, but it was incredibly powerful. When Huo Shen released him, Su Yan's legs gave out, and he was completely supported by the sink behind him. His lips were swollen, his eyes were red, and he was gasping for breath, looking like he'd been badly bullied.
Huo Shen rubbed the corner of his lips with his thumb, his eyes as dark as a bottomless cold pool, filled with strong emotions that Su Yan could not understand.
"Now, do you understand what I mean?" He looked at Su Yan, as if he had finally marked his prey.
Su Yan stared at him blankly, her heart pounding wildly, almost bursting through her chest. At this moment, all the system tasks and the fate of being cannon fodder were shattered by this sudden kiss.
It turns out that the beginning of Shura Field was not a confrontation between four people, but that he was forcibly dragged by the villain into the eye of the storm that belonged only to the two of them.
