Shen Yi spat out the sip of water from his mouth. ‘ What did he mean by that? What happens after he showered? And would he ask me to sleep with him?’
Shen Yi raised his head to look at Lin Hua who had just stepped out from the showers. There were a few cowlicks, still wet from the shower, sticking out of Lin Hua’s head. The hot shower also caused Lin Hua’s cheeks to flush as if he was blushing. With only a towel tied loosely around his hips, Lin Hua fixed his piercing gaze to meet Shen Yi’s eyes.
An intense pain shot through Shen Yi, especially in his chrysanthemum. His trousers which are slightly soaked due to an unidentified liquid pressed awkwardly against the wedge between his butt cheeks. Although he felt uncomfortable, he had no choice but to remain seated on the sofa due to the immense pressure in the room.
Shen Yi took a few deep breaths to calm himself and asked in a matter of fact tone. “Did they force you to take any drugs?” It’s not surprising for establishments like the current bar to use drugs or aphrodisiacs to gain control over their auctioned ‘goods’.
“Don’t worry, they didn’t.”
“Then, they must have threatened you. Right?”
“No. They didn’t”
Shen Yi turned his head and looked at Lin Hua. He was confused by Lin Hua’s actions.
He knew from reading the novel, that Lin Hua was never forced or threatened by the bar’s personnel. However, in the novel, the successful buyer had been Shen Jiajia, who is Lin Hua’s ex-girlfriend. They spent the whole night lying in bed and whispering sweet nothing in each other’s ears. By morning, they managed to reconcile and put aside their differences behind them.
But what is happening now? Why is Lin Hua so adamant to sleep with Shen Yi?!
Lin Hua took a seat next to Shen Yi and whispered softly in his ears, “I never expected it to be you. Perhaps this is fate. Don’t be afraid, I … I will be gentle.”
Be careful, my foot! I have been wrongly accused here, don’t misunderstand my intention! I merely wanted to help you, the male lead of this novel so that I can hold onto your golden thigh. Who said anything about wanting to sleep with you?!

Shen Yi stood up quickly. “You seem to have misunderstood me. I just wanted to lend you a hand.”
Lin Hua frowned, “But haven’t you been pursuing me all this while?”
Shen Yi wanted to cry. How could the original Shen Yi be such a shit-stirrer? How dare he provoke Lin Hua, when he couldn’t even deal with Lu Yunbo?
“Yes, I really, really like you. But … but I don’t think our relationship should be complicated by money. I believe that money should never be involved, otherwise, it will just be another business transaction. The connection between us should remain pure and untainted.” Without batting an eyelid, Shen Yi took out a bank card from his wallet and handed it over to Lin Hua.
“I know that your mother has fallen ill and a lot of money is required for her treatment. This is a small gift from me, so please don’t refuse me. Treat it as if I am lending you the money and you can pay me back whenever.”
Lin Hua stretched out his hands to grab onto both the card and Shen Yi’s hands.
Shen Yi struggled to free his hands from Lin Hua’s grasp, but he was no match against Lin Hua’s strength. Lin Hua asserted a bit of force and tightened his grip over Shen Yi’s hands to prevent him from breaking free. He was careful not to hurt Shen Yi in the process, as he was fully aware of the difference in their physical stature and strength. Lin Hua who is 1.88 meters in height towered over the slender Shen Yi who is only 1.78 meters.
After some time, Shen Yi sighed and gave up. He raised his head and looked directly at Lin Hua. Lin Hua smiled when their eyes met and said, “Thank you. Xiao Yi, don’t worry. I know you treat me very well. I will definitely repay you for the love that you have shown me.”
What the hell is happening!
Shen Yi chuckled uneasily and resumed his desperate attempts to recover his hands from Lin Hua. Finally, Lin Hua loosen his grip and Shen Yi liberated himself. “Umm, in that case, you better take a good rest. I’ll be leaving first.” He didn’t allow Lin Hua an opportunity to reply. Shen Yi hastily turned around, ran towards the door, and made his escape.
What just happened? Lin Hua obviously went through a drastic change as he no longer treated him coldly as depicted in the novel.
Is it because of his transmigration? Did he cause a butterfly effect? Or did Lin Hua fall head over heels for him because he spent money to buy Lin Hua tonight? This is so frustrating!

Shen Yi managed to drag his exhausted body back to Lu Yunbo’s royal courtyard. As the wife of a prince, he was not allowed to wander outside Lu Yunbo’s residence after nightfall, but instead, he had to obediently spend every night there. After the marriage, the original Shen Yi never failed to return night after night, even though Lu Yunbo rarely spends his nights in his own residence.
After he closed his room’s doors behind him, Shen Yi without haste, stripped off his pants. Upon careful inspection of his back, he discovered that there were signs of bleeding coming out from his chrysanthemum.
Shen Yi staggered into the toilet and carefully washed his butt. He can’t help but grimaced in pain as he remembered the rigorous exercises carried out with Lu Yihan which caused his chrysanthemum to swell. The slightest touch can cause intense pain to shoot through Shen Yi’s body.
After his bath, Shen Yi searched high and low in his room for an ointment that could be applied to reduce the pain in his chrysanthemum. However, he was left disappointed. He scratched his head and he pondered to himself, ‘Could I ask a servant for an ointment? What if they found out that he slept with Lu Yihan. Never mind, I’ll worry about it when I wake up.’
Shen Yi woke up in the afternoon on the next day. While he was having his lunch, he turned on his personal terminal to see if there were any messages that he had missed.
However, Shen Yi quickly regretted his decision to turn on the terminal. Most of the messages were from Cui Hao, all asking him about the events that took place last night.
How many rounds did you end up doing with Lin Hua? Did you enjoy sleeping with Lin Hua? How was Lin Hua’s technique in bed?
Shen Yi ignored all of Cui Hao’s messages. Instead, his attention was drawn to a single text message left by Zeng Nan.
“Did you manage to sleep with the second prince?”
It was Zeng Nan who had planted the terrible idea of sleeping with Lu Yihan in the original Shen Yi’s mind, and the mastermind behind this scheme was no other than Prince Lu Rui.
Shen Yi answered Zeng Nan’s queries through text, “No, I didn’t get to sleep with him.” Shen Yi lied to Zeng Nan because he is unwilling to end up like the original Shen Yi, who died without realizing the true reason behind his death and who caused it.
Zeng Nan was indignant, “How did that happen? Didn’t you use the drug on him? Just a small amount would cause him to lose control over himself. It’s so effective that if he had taken it, he would not hesitate to sleep with a pig.”
“Hahaha, but unfortunately I am not a pig.”
A short message from Zeng Nan replied, “I didn’t mean it that way. I’m merely concerned about your well-being. Remember, I am your best friend.”
“I understand. I didn’t sleep with the second prince because I didn’t manage to drug him.”
“Oh, then why did you ask Cui Hao for contraceptive pills?”
At that moment, Shen Yi would have given anything to strangle Cui Hao to death. “I was merely asking. Is there a problem?”
“Hahaha, of course not. Are you feeling alright? It sounds as if you are in a bad mood.”
Shen Yi snorted to himself, ‘How could anyone be in a good mood when speaking to the person who will cause you to lose your life? ’
“I caught a cold.” Shen Yi replied curtly.
“I see. Then you better take some medicine, drink loads of water, and get some rest.”
“En. I know.”
After Shen Yi ended his conversation with Zeng Nan, he immediately gave Cui Hao a call.
