Zhou Rui watched as He Muchen finished drying his hair but didn't leave, and said:
"You've finished using the hairdryer. I'm going to take a shower. Please close the door behind you when you leave."
Hearing the tone in his voice, He Muchen, who was already feeling uncomfortable because he had booked two rooms, felt a surge of emotion.
She felt even more uncomfortable now, and flicked his forehead hard. "Now you don't even call me 'husband' anymore, and you don't even call me by my name anymore, is that it?"
"Rui Rui, you're a bit naughty. You slept with me and now you want to abandon me."
Zhou Rui rubbed his red forehead and flushed face, muttering dejectedly, "When did I sleep with you? I just slept in your bed, I didn't actually sleep with you."
Looking at the delicate Zhou Rui in front of him, He Muchen felt that Zhou Rui was seducing him, and he was completely defenseless against her.
However, he still couldn't get over the mental hurdle; he felt that Zhou Rui was just using him as a substitute.
Although he kept brainwashing himself, when it came to actually doing that kind of thing, he still hoped that he would only truly make the other person completely his own when the other person was completely his own.
He Muchen asked Zhou Rui in a low voice, "You really want to sleep with me? Is it because I look like your favorite idol that you want to sleep with me?"
"ah!"
Zhou Rui was afraid that He Muchen would see through her twisted love for him—a love that would last even in death.
He was terrified that He Muchen would hate him. He could accept that He Muchen didn't like him, but he just couldn't accept that He Muchen hated him; that was more painful than death.
Zhou Rui quickly explained, immediately making up a reason in his mind, "I didn't want to sleep with you, really, I swear."
He Muchen looked at Zhou Rui and said that he didn't want to sleep with him at all, even though he looked like his idol. He was determined not to sleep with him.
At that moment, his heart felt as if it had been slashed by a sharp knife. He Muchen, his face pale, gave an "oh" and said indifferently, "You should get some rest. I'm going back."
Seeing that He Muchen's expression was not good, Zhou Rui turned around and walked out of his room. Before he could ask him what was wrong, He Muchen had already closed his door.
Zhou Rui felt that he had expressed himself very clearly, and that he shouldn't be seen as a neurotic pervert in He Muchen's mind.
Feeling depressed and unable to sleep, He Muchen called his friend in G City and asked him to pick him up from the hotel. Soon after, He Muchen's friend arrived at the hotel and took He Muchen to his private bar.

Among the three people sitting in the private room, one named Wang Chenhan, with a cheeky grin, put his arm around He Muchen's shoulder and said:
"My little Chenchen, why does he look so pale?"
He Muchen silently picked up his wine glass and gulped down the wine in one go.
The two men present looked at each other in bewilderment. Chen Qiankun, sitting on the other side, pressed on He Muchen's wine glass and said, "Jingchen, that's not how you drink wine."
Wang Chenhan chuckled from the side, "That's right, that's right, my dear little Chenchen, if you get sick from drinking, your brother and sister will definitely raze this place to the ground."
“My little Chenchen, what’s wrong? You can talk to me, to my Qian Chuanzi, and maybe we can help you solve your problem.”
He Muchen sighed, looking down, and rubbed the wine glass in his hand. "Am I really that bad?"
When Wang Chenhan and Chen Qiankun heard He Jingchen, the young master of the prestigious He family in City A, say that they were inferior, they exclaimed excitedly, "What?"
He Muchen's ears were almost deafened by their loud noises: "Can you two please keep your voices down? You're making my head hurt from all the noise."
Wang Chenhan said excitedly, "No, my little Chenchen is handsome, from a good family, and hardworking. What's wrong with him? In this world, if my little Chenchen is number one, no one dares to claim to be number two, okay?"
At this moment, Wang Chenhan received two eye rolls from He Muchen and Chen Qiankun, their eyes practically screaming "idiot."
Chen Qiankun said to He Muchen from the side:
"Mu Chen, ignore this idiot. You know he's been an idiot for many years. By the way, Mu Chen, what happened to you? You don't usually do things that are so illogical."
He Muchen said dejectedly, "He doesn't seem to like me."
Hearing He Muchen say this, Wang Chenhan, who was always gossiping, became even more excited, "Who is he?"
"They actually dragged my innocent little Chenchen down to the mortal world."
Chen Qiankun said to Wang Chenhan speechlessly, "Can you shut your stinking mouth? It's too noisy."
Wang Chenhan pouted pitifully, "Wife, I'll shut my stinky mouth right now, don't be angry, or you'll hurt yourself."
"That's enough, you two. I didn't come here to watch you show off your love."
Chen Qiankun smiled awkwardly: "Mu Chen, can you tell us who doesn't like you? If you don't want to say, we'll drink with you. But you should drink less, you have an event to attend tomorrow."
He Muchen sighed and said helplessly, "A little white rabbit who treats me as a substitute for someone else."
"Holy crap, someone is using you as a substitute for someone else. Who? I'd like to see which powerful being dares to treat my little Chenchen like this."
Wang Chenhan, who had been sitting quietly to the side, started shouting excitedly again.
He Muchen took out his phone from his pocket and showed them that the two of them were trending at number one on the hot search list today.
Pointing to Zhou Rui walking next to him in the photo, and to photos of Zhou Rui taken separately by fans and posted online.
Wang Chenhan and Chen Qiankun looked at the cute and alluring Zhou Rui on their phones. Wang Chenhan snatched the phone from He Muchen's hand and examined it carefully. "Hmm, he is kind of... strangely cute, quite endearing."
Chen Qiankun, with a cold face, grabbed his ear and said, "What, you've got your eye on someone? Want to change your partner?"
"Ouch! Honey, it hurts! I didn't fall for him. How could I fall for someone else? My wife is so beautiful."
Chen Qiankun slowly loosened his grip on Wang Chenhan's ear, rubbing it as he smiled, "That would be best."
"That's for sure. My wife is the most beautiful woman in the world, no one can compare."
Chen Qiankun looked at Wang Chenhan, whose Chinese language class was taught by the PE teacher, and regretted how he could have fallen for this idiot. He must have been blind back then.
He Muchen snatched his phone from Wang Chenhan, got up, and prepared to return to the hotel, because staying any longer would only be like rubbing salt into his wounds.
"Chenchen, baby, you're not drinking anymore. You still haven't explained to us who he is!"
Chen Qiankun patted Wang Chenhan on the back, "Idiot, what are you asking? What are your eyes for? Didn't you see the title?"
Wang Chenhan didn't really notice what was written on it; he only saw the fair-skinned and adorable girl in the photo.
It must be said that the woman in the photo is quite attractive and knows how to attract attention.
