Was he⦠asking him to sit on his lap? Even if he really wanted to do something, wasnât this pace a little⦠too hasty?
The actor wasnât quite sure what his Gong Jie meant.
âI said come here!â
âOhâ¦â The actor didnât dare go against his wishes at all. Trembling with fear, he walked over and sat upright in Gong Jieâs lap. He felt⦠the chill emanating from the ice mountain behind him was becoming more and more obvious!
âDid I ask you to sit on my lap?â
The actor shuddered in fear, but he really wanted to break down in tears!
Didnât you slap your thigh and asked me to sit on it? Wasnât that what you meant?
Even if he wanted to summon a dog, he couldnât just give careless orders!
Shuddering with fear, Hua Jin instinctively tried to shift his butt onto the sofa, but Gong Jie was gripping his waist, seemingly displeased. At this point, he could no longer move.
The man leaned towards him and breathed in his ear. âAre you that eager?â Gong Jieâs demonic breath brushed against the skin of his face, as if countless cat claws were scratching at him. It was itchy and scorching.
The actor looked a little dismayed. âWhat do you mean, eager!?â
âThen what?â Unruffled, his Gong Jie countered, âWhy else would you be sitting so intimately on my lap? What, first you play hard to get, then you try to seduce me?â
The actorâs embarrassment turned to anger, but he held himself back. âIf youâre going to be anything but straight, how am I supposed to seduce you? Unless youâre into men, too? I donât think so, right?!â
âWhy not?â The man raised his eyebrows and gently pinched Hua Jinâs cheek. âHow do you know Iâm not interested in men? Maybe itâs just as you said, that part of me didnât develop completely. Maybe what you said yesterday developed me.â
This behavior was so intimate that Hua Jin immediately stood up like a frightened cat!
âWhat ⦠what do you mean?â
Gong Jie slipped an arm around the actorâs waist. âDidnât you say yesterday that you like me not because you like men, but because the person you like happens to be a man?â
ââ¦â
Did he ever say that? It had to be Liang Yin again. The actorâs expression darkened further.
Once again, he was acutely aware of what âjoy begets sorrowâ meant.
âActually⦠I wasnât the one who said these things yesterday. Would you believe me?â Hua Jin looked earnestly at Gong Jieâs expression as he spoke. He noted that Gong Jie was glaring at him coldly. The actor was dumbfounded.
Fine.
âForget it if you donât believe me!â The actor puffed out his cheeks. âAnyway, I didnât say those things. Liang Yin said them to you out of spite. Iâm innocent!â
âI used to think it was odd.â
âWhat was odd?â
âTell me, what man would turn red in the presence of another man? Unless, of course, thereâs something wrong with the guy.â
Gong Jie, the Demon King, had come to that conclusion.
The actor was speechless.
âItâs alright to admit to liking a man.â
The actor was even more speechless. He stood up angrily. âYou wonât believe anything I say anyway,â he burst out. âThereâs no point explaining!â
The actor started to walk away, but Gong Jie held him firmly by the waist.
âHey! Let go!â The actor looked back and was about to gather his courage to warn Gong Jie, when he saw an evil smile forming on the manâs face. Suddenly, Gong Jie pressed him down against the sofa.
