Chapter 93 Lovers' Tango
Holding a wine glass in one hand and drawing a circle with the other, Lu Minghe circled around Li Yan, who was singing, with a mysterious gait, performing a dance that expressed the diversity of life. When the song reached its emotional climax, Li Yan bent over, stretched her arms upward, and then unleashed a powerful, soul-stirring high note that resonated throughout the surroundings.
As Fu Yanle reached the door, the powerful sound wave knocked him backward, causing him to stumble straight into Yu Jingchen's arms.
Yu Jingchen supported Fu Yanle's waist and glanced at the two wildly artistic individuals surrounded by the crowd with some disdain.
"I just want you to know, I just want you to know, I really turned back. It's so painful, so painful, my heart is really aching—" Li Yan opened her affectionate eyes and saw the two people standing at the door through the crowd. "—Uh?"
The accompaniment stopped, and Lu Minghe's masterful, flowing artistry also ceased. He kicked Li Yan in the butt, "What are you doing? Did you run out of breath while singing?"
"No, no!" Li Yan put down her microphone, leaped off the grand stage of life, pushed aside a group of bewildered backup dancers, and rushed to Yu Jingchen. "President Yu, good evening, good evening!"
What's going on tonight? Lou Beiming came, and Yu Jingchen came along too. Does this playboy have some priceless treasure hidden in his year-end party that he himself doesn't even know about?!
Fu Yanle took off his down jacket, placed it on the single sofa to the side, and waved, saying, "Didn't you see me?"
"I'm tired of looking at you." Li Yan pouted, pushed Fu Yanle aside, and instantly changed her expression. "I am truly honored that President Yu has graced us with his presence, but we don't have any respectable people here, so please don't take offense."
If you have nothing else to do, hurry up and leave. Do you want to turn this place into a deathly quiet study room?!
"How could that be? I came uninvited." Yu Jingchen pulled Fu Yanle in front of him. "I'll stay with Lele. You guys do your thing and don't worry about me."
Lele? Who? Fu Yanle!
Li Yan realized what was happening and was about to make up some nice words when she saw Yu Jingchen's hand still on Fu Yanle's waist, in a light grip.
"..." He took three steps back, observed the two people's intimate posture that was so natural that it couldn't be more natural, and a wisdom that had never appeared before finally burst forth from his mind.
Oh, haha, so this is the person in Fu Yanle's room.
Li Yan leaned closer to Fu Yanle, gave him a thumbs-up, and whispered, "Awesome! A role model for us all."
"Me?" Fu Yanle raised an eyebrow. "You're also planning to get gay?"
Li Yan said, with a mixture of fierceness and gentleness, "Get out."
Fu Yanle smiled, turned around and took off Yu Jingchen's coat, draping it over his own down jacket.
Standing on the round platform, Lu Minghe glanced at the wooden figures around him, picked up the microphone, and said, "Come on, let me introduce the two male guests who are walking towards us now. They are—our role model, Xiao Fu!"
"Hello everyone, hello everyone!" Fu Yanle waved.
The crowd responded warmly, "Hello, hello!"
Lu Minghe said, "The person next to me is—"
“He’s Xiao Fu’s boyfriend.” Fu Yanle put his arm around Yu Jingchen’s shoulder and said happily, “His name is Yu Jingchen, let’s all get to know him.”
The crowd responded docilely, "Hello, hello!"
"Alright, introductions complete!" Lu Minghe waved his hand. "Keep going and have some fun! Anyone who tries to act introverted, I'll slap them! Let's have some fun!"
As the music started, the crowd moved away from Yu Jingchen in small groups, keeping a respectful distance.
Seeing this, Fu Yanle pouted unhappily and said to Yu Jingchen, "Don't they want to be nourished by our sweet love?"
“They’re afraid of me.” Yu Jingchen lowered his head and said somewhat aggrievedly, “What should I do? I don’t seem to be very popular. Lele has to protect me.”
Fu Yanle patted his chest and said readily, "Here, I'm the big brother, I'll definitely protect you, you just need to follow me!"
"Okay." Yu Jingchen smiled. "I will always follow you."
Under the crystal chandelier, the light and shadow were hazy, casting a bluish-purple shadow on Yu Jingchen's nose, making his face resemble a steep mountain. Fu Yanle looked up and kissed the ravines in the mountain, his heart fluttering with joy at the gentle, watery warmth of the two pools of jade.
He said, "Please dance with me!"
Fu Yanle took Yu Jingchen's hand and pressed it against his intimately.
On stage, Lu Minghe cleverly changed the song for them.
They danced the tango, and Fu Yanle volunteered to dance the female steps. His black turtleneck sweater was tucked into his trousers, which clung to his legs, showcasing his tall figure and supple waistline. Yu Jingchen danced the tango better than Fu Yanle had imagined, with composure and elegance, possessing a touch of old-fashioned gentlemanly grace. He was very strong, able to steadily support Fu Yanle at all times, both cooperating and allowing Fu Yanle to indulge himself.
All eyes turned to the center, surprised to see that two men dancing the tango could be so tender. Every movement of Fu Yanle exuded a naive, carefree charm, and his gazes towards Yu Jingchen were a gentle exchange.
This is a loving couple.
The drumbeats pounding against his heart struck Fu Yanle's ears. He leaned back, lifted his leg, and cleanly hooked his arm around Yu Jingchen's waist. That exquisitely handsome face was fully exposed in the dim light. His eyes were smiling, and his cheeks were flushed with a soft, rosy blush, making him breathtakingly beautiful.
Yu Jingchen put his arm around Fu Yanle's waist, feeling his heart pounding uncontrollably amidst the lingering melody. He then recalled a dream he had once had.
Many years ago, he saw a scene in an old film where the male and female leads danced the tango in the rain. They were so loving, their tender intimacy bordering on madness. He remembered this scene vividly because that night he dreamed of Fu Yanle. The female lead in the film became Fu Yanle, and he, like a dream thief, vulgarly and offensively transformed himself into the male lead.
That night, he was overcome with passion, but when he came to his senses, he realized it was all an illusion, so he was in great pain and embarrassment, and would never forget it.
Fu Yanle slowly and gently brushed his inner calf against Yu Jingchen's waist, biting down on the last drumbeat, and stood up. As if by magic, he produced a stemless red rose and gently tucked it into Yu Jingchen's belt.
After the dance ended, Fu Yanle pulled Yu Jingchen to a sofa not far away. He made Yu Jingchen sit down, rested his head on Yu Jingchen's lap, and even asked Yu Jingchen to feed him wine, treating him like a precious and delicate cat.
Yu Jingchen was afraid that sitting down would crush the roses on his waist, so he took them out and put them in the pocket of his coat.
A group of people were playing dice in the distance. Fu Yanle picked up a die and said to Yu Jingchen, "Let's play three rounds too."
"Okay." Yu Jingchen looked down at him. "How do we decide on winning or losing?"
"Truth or Dare, the winner can name any punishment, and the loser must accept it." Fu Yanle raised an eyebrow. "Who's the biggest bet? Dare to bet?"
Yu Jingchen pulled him up and said, "You're really daring."
Fu Yanle leaned against Yu Jingchen's shoulder, raised his black round cup, and said, "Watch my dazzling and cool move—freeze!"
With a "snap," Fu Yanle pressed down on the top of the cup and then opened it to take a look.
“336.” Yu Jingchen took the round cup and shook it casually. “Lele, come and see.”
"You're too arrogant!" Fu Yanle lifted the round cup.
Three perfectly clear 6s were placed on the table.
"I won." Yu Jingchen pinched Fu Yanle's defiant cheek. "Truth or dare." He leaned close to Fu Yanle's ear and whispered, "Why do you cry and make a scene when you clearly like it?"
"I'm crying because it feels so good." Fu Yanle said arrogantly. "As for making a scene, the more I make a scene and the fiercer you are, the more good it feels to me."
Yu Jingchen was amused by his honesty and said, "Round two."
"I want to go first." Fu Yanle snatched the round cup, copied Yu Jingchen's technique right in front of him, gave it a light shake with a casual yet pretentious air, and then pressed the button. "Open! 665, wow, I've become a lucky winner just by showing off!"
Yu Jingchen picked up the round cup, casually waved it under Fu Yanle's expectant gaze, and then finally lifted the lid.
"112! Hahaha!" Fu Yanle exclaimed happily, lowering his voice to ask, "Why don't you like unlocking specific scenes?"
Yu Jingchen raised an eyebrow. "For example?"
“The glass windows with the curtains open, the swimming pool, the kitchen…” Fu Yanle scratched his head, “Every time we start a small fire in these places, you ruthlessly put it out.”
“The glass windows aren’t one-way, and it’s not safe to leave the curtains open. The swimming pool is too big, and there aren’t many positions available. As for the kitchen, although no one else dared to come in at the time, it’s not a private area, so if something happened, you’d definitely be embarrassed the next day,” Yu Jingchen said earnestly. “Even if you pretend to be indifferent on the surface, you’ll still feel embarrassed inside.”
Fu Yanle didn't offer any reason to object, saying, "You go first in the last round!"
"Okay." Yu Jingchen took the round cup, his movements still as simple and honest as ever. He lifted the lid and saw 333.
Fu Yanle took a deep breath, shook the cup, and lifted the lid. "356! I won! I won!"
"Yes, you won." Yu Jingchen kissed his cheek. "For the last round, do you want to punish me properly?"
"Since you've made this request yourself, then I won't stand on ceremony." Fu Yanle pointed to the round platform. "Go there, take the microphone and shout three times: 'I'm Fu Yanle's little cutie, yay!' Make sure you pronounce it clearly and with great enthusiasm. Go!"
Yu Jingchen looked at him without saying a word.
"Why are you looking at me like that? We agreed beforehand that the winner can propose whatever they want, and the loser has to obey." Fu Yanle raised an eyebrow. "Are you going to back out?"
“Of course I won’t back down, but I think I can still put up a fight.” Yu Jingchen tickled Fu Yanle’s waist, and took the opportunity to pull the ticklish Fu Yanle into his arms, whispering, “For example, I can try to please the winner and ask him to be merciful and let me off the hook.”
Fu Yanle said "Oh," and then asked, "So how are you going to try to please them?"
“For example, kiss his cheek first,” Yu Jingchen kissed the soft flesh at the corner of Fu Yanle’s mouth, “and then his ears will get hot,” he tilted his head and pecked Fu Yanle’s right ear, his tone amused, “and sure enough, the temperature is a little higher than usual.”
Fu Yanle's eyes widened in disbelief. "You!"
"I want to kiss his lips again." Yu Jingchen lowered his head and kissed Fu Yanle, gently invading every inch of territory that Fu Yanle had willingly given him. The aroma of wine wafted around them. They seemed to be drunk, their hearing and vision selectively blurred, only able to clearly see each other's faces and hear each other's heartbeats amidst the noise.
Yu Jingchen said, "Finally, he will kiss my Adam's apple."
Fu Yanle seemed to be bewitched, and kissed his Adam's apple from his lips.
"Then tell me, say—"
Fu Yanle's eyes were glazed over. "You old sly fox!"
