The Devoted Second Male Lead Decided to Favor Someone Else Chapter 20.3
Genius Artist - Replacement of the White Moonlight for the Rich CEO
“. . . Maybe I can bring it up the next time I talk to the research and development team and see if they can make one.”
Lu Shijin started cursing even more, so 711 automatically blocked it out.
Far away water cannot quench immediate thirst, he had to rely on himself to get out of danger.
Lu Shijin pulled up his pants, his mind racing to come up with a foolproof excuse to explain to Huo Qi why he was in the same washroom as his uncle, and how nothing happened between them.
But sadly, he was a step behind and Huo Lian had already opened the washroom door.
Lu Shijin hurriedly slid between the door and wall. Thankfully, Huo Lian was stocky and the doorway was small, so with him standing in front, people in the hallway couldn’t see what was inside.
“What’s with all the noise?” Huo Lian tidied up his clothes, closing the washroom door on the way and naturally blocked the door, not letting anyone near.
After seeing Huo Lian walk out, Huo Qi frowned a bit.
“You were inside?”
Huo Lian glanced at him contemptuously. “Unless you saw someone else go in?”
Huo Qi was suspicious, “Then why didn’t you answer when I asked if there was anyone inside?”
“Do I have to answer? Do you like chatting with people when you’re using the washroom?”
Huo Qi: . .  .
“Are you in a hurry?” Huo Lian stepped aside, graciously saying, “I’m done, you can use it.”
Huo Lian had an indifferent tone, but Lu Shijin wanted to hit someone when he heard him.
Although he knew Huo Lian was deliberately being aggressive, what if Huo Qi was just that crazy and actually went in?
If it happens, then he would only be able to say “surprise*!”
*(English in raws)
Lu Shijin silently ground his teeth, imagining he was biting into Huo Lian, that asshole.
Thankfully, Huo Qi wasn’t planning on using the washroom, and didn’t like Huo Lian’s tone, “Who needs to use it, I’m looking for someone.”
“Looking for someone? Who?” Huo Lian thought for a moment and realized, “Oh, that little boy you brought?”
“Yes, do you know where he went?” Looking at his attitude, Huo Qi thought that Huo Lian had seen Lu Shijin.
Huo Lian casually replied, “No.”
Huo Qi: . . . What do you mean “no”? What a waste of my time!
Huo Qi was too lazy to continue arguing with Huo Lian and walked up to open the washroom door.
At that moment, Lu Shijin felt like his heart was about to stop.
“Since Mr. Huo doesn’t want to use the washroom, could you go in to find the boy? Do you think your little lover would be in there? Going to the washroom with me?” Huo Lian lazily leaned on the sink across, casually speaking.
Huo Lian’s words made Huo Qi pause.
Of course Huo Qi didn’t think that way. It was the first time Lu Shijin and Huo Lian had met. They don’t even know each other, so how could they go to the washroom together.
But he didn’t know why he felt like he needed to open the door, as if he was possessed.
Huo Qi felt very irritated at Huo Lian’s smiling expression and looked at him impatiently, “Aren’t you bored?”
Huo Lian’s gaze turned cold, “You’re the one who can’t even look after your person, what’s the point of directing your anger at me? Does your old man even know you brought a lover on a work trip? Mr. Huo doesn’t even forget about love and happiness even at work, what praiseworthy behaviour.”
Huo Qi’s expression slightly changed at this and said without any real threat, “Stop being so mysterious. I’m warning you, mind your own business and don’t tell my dad.”
Huo Lian snorted and calmly turned around, washing his hands in the sink as well and collecting some water to rinse his mouth.
Huo Qi saw Huo Lian rinsing his mouth and took advantage of this to mock him, “How fascinating, it’s my first time seeing someone rinse their mouth after going to the washroom. Did you secretly eat something? How was the taste?”
Huo Lian wiped away the water on the corners of his lips and dried his hands with a piece of paper as he said without looking. “Yup, I did. It was pretty good. Do you want to go in to try?”
Huo Qi didn’t understand, but Lu Shijin knew what Huo Lian was talking about.
He’s really . . . too fucking perverted.
But for some reason, he found that he seemed to like Huo Lian’s pervertedness.
Could he himself also be a pervert?
“Forget it, if you like it, then you can enjoy it by yourself. I don’t have your unique hobby.”
Huo Qi frowned and shook his hand in disgust, leaning away from Huo Lian as he walked away, as though Huo Lian had an infectious disease.
When Huo Qi was far away, Huo Lian patted on the washroom door, “Come out, he’s gone.”
Lu Shijin had almost been scared to death and suffocated to death in there and glared at Huo Lian the moment he came out.
“Your gaze looks like it wants to eat someone.” Huo Lian smiled cynically, “Don’t worry, when we land, I’ll give you some to eat tonight at the hotel.”
“Fuck off, when we land, you’d better roll as far away as you can from me.” Lu Shijin lifted his foot, wanting to stomp on Huo Lian.
If he weren’t such an asshole, would he have had to hide in the toilet in fear?
And he’s suddenly in the mood to flirt, how aggravating!
Huo Lian easily grabbed his leg, pushing him against the door and said sullenly, “I’m not joking. Lu Shijin, listen, if you dare to not come to my room tonight, you’ll have to deal with the consequences.”
