My crush wants to be my sugar daddy.

Chapter 73 "I Love You"

In the room, Chi Yuan sat quietly on the sofa, like a doll whose soul had been ripped out, remaining silent for a long time.

Xiao Zhao didn't dare to disturb him or ask any questions. She just silently tidied up the mess in the room. When she had almost finished, she remembered that Chi Yuan's leg injury hadn't been treated yet, so she carefully carried the first-aid kit over.

"Brother Chi, let me help you apply the medicine."

Chi Yuan neither agreed nor refused, and continued to do so quietly.

After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Zhao decided to squat down and apply the medicine to Chi Yuan.

The scene they saw when they came in was absolutely shocking: blood, knives, Chi Ge with disheveled clothes, and a complete mess in the room.

If he hadn't been gone for such a short time that he couldn't have actually done anything, he would have suspected that his artist had been raped.

He never expected Yan Chuan to be this kind of person; he would never be a fan of him again.

"Xiao Zhao," Chi Yuan finally spoke, "who is Mr. Jiang's favorite person?"

Xiao Zhao thought that Chi Yuan would explain what had just happened, such as keeping it a secret, telling the company how to handle it, or simply telling him what happened. But he never expected that Chi Yuan's first words would be about President Jiang.

"Does President Jiang have someone he likes?" Xiao Zhao was a little confused.

Chi Yuan was just asking casually. How could Xiao Zhao possibly know something that even he, who had been following Jiang Haochen for seven or eight years, didn't know?

"I'm fine now, you should go and rest."

Xiao Zhao was a little worried and hesitated before asking, "Should we tell the company about what happened today?"

Chi Yuan: "Speak up. With this big fuss, the production team definitely can't keep it a secret anymore."

Xiao Zhao: "Then... what do you mean? What exactly happened today?"

Chi Yuan chuckled self-deprecatingly, "It's nothing, it's just that Actor Yan found out I'm a prostitute and looks down on me."

Chi Yuan spoke calmly, but Xiao Zhao felt uncomfortable listening to him. Although it's common in this industry to exchange one's body for resources, everyone is a respectable person, and they pretend not to know even if they do. Why would someone come to your door and slap you in the face like this?

It must be because Brother Chi didn't agree to him in the first place, and he got angry out of embarrassment.

"Should we ask the crew for leave tomorrow?" It's almost five o'clock now, and the scene is scheduled to be filmed in the afternoon tomorrow. Xiao Zhao felt that Chi Yuan wasn't in good condition.

"No need. I'm already being disliked. If I take another leave, I'm afraid the director will replace me."

Yan Chuan said he'd make him regret it. Chi Yuan could only gamble that the director wouldn't replace him. Now that filming was halfway done, as long as he didn't make any mistakes, the director wouldn't have a reason to fire him.

"Then you should hurry up and get some sleep; you only have a few hours left."

After Xiao Zhao left, Chi Yuan didn't take the time to rest because he couldn't fall asleep at all.

His mind was filled with what Yan Chuan had just said, and his description of how Mr. Jiang was when he liked someone.

He had no doubt about the truth of those words, because someone like Mr. Jiang, if he truly liked someone, would definitely treat that person very, very well.

They even did better than those words suggested.

Mr. Jiang is actually quite good to me. He took the initiative in the car. If I had to choose again, I would still do the same.

His words to Yan Chuan were all true. He was willing to go wherever and whenever Mr. Jiang wanted him.

Because in his relationship with Mr. Jiang, he wanted more.

But why am I still sad?

Chi Yuan tried hard not to cry, but the pain in her heart just wouldn't stop.

I was always happy when I never had it before, so why am I sad now?

Chi Yuan desperately wanted comfort, but at this moment, the only one who could comfort him was Jiang Haochen. He even impulsively dialed the number, but quickly hung up.

What can he say if I call him?

Chi Yuan closed his eyes, turned off the light, and forced himself to sleep.

Go to sleep, you'll feel better after a good night's sleep.

Perhaps due to extreme physical exhaustion, Chi Yuan drifted off to sleep in a daze.

-

At the same time, in Yan Chuan's room on the 22nd floor, neither of them was asleep.

Zhu Feng was treating Yan Chuan's wound. Fortunately, the wound wasn't deep, so he didn't need to go to the hospital; otherwise, it would have been a serious matter.

"Why are you doing this? She's just a minor celebrity. If you really can't stand it, there are plenty of ways to deal with her. Why bother..." Zhu Feng sighed, leaving the rest of his sentence unfinished.

Yan Chuan had been silent since he returned, but finally spoke up: "I don't know either."

Zhu Feng was surprised.

Yan Chuan: "You know, there are so many people in the industry who sell their bodies, and quite a few who pretend to be innocent, so why do I hate him so much?"

Zhu Feng has been following Yan Chuan for almost ten years, ever since his debut. You could say he knows Yan Chuan better than anyone else: "Brother, you wouldn't actually have a crush on him, would you?"

It's because I genuinely like it that I go crazy.

"Impossible, I've just been fooled by him for too long, and I'm just angry." Yan Chuan said firmly, but in front of him was the image of the boy with red eyes saying that he was willing to be Jiang Haochen's plaything.

Those eyes were wild and reckless.

"Disgusting!" Yan Chuan angrily swept the fruit plate off the table.

Zhu Feng glanced at it and said nothing more.

-

The next day.

Jiang Haochen woke up in a hotel in F City, completely unaware of what had happened the night before in another hotel three kilometers away.

He got up, washed up, had breakfast, and when he was all ready to check out and leave, he saw the phone call that Chi Yuan had made and then hung up in the early hours of yesterday morning.

Was this dot typed incorrectly?

He remembered that Chi Yuan's scenes were scheduled to be filmed until the early hours of the morning, so he was sure he wouldn't be awake at that hour. Therefore, instead of returning the call directly, he sent a WeChat message.

He took a picture of the view outside the window.

Jiang Haochen: "This morning was beautiful. I originally wanted to see it with you."

After waiting for a while and not receiving a reply, he knew he was right; Chi Yuan was still asleep.

Jiang Haochen smiled, pushed open the door, and went downstairs.

Chi Yuan, who had been sleeping soundly all night, was startled awake by the vibration of his phone. When he saw the message, he jumped out of bed.

Mr. Jiang is still in F City!

Chi Yuan quickly typed a few words, then quickly deleted them, and instead made a phone call.

He longed to hear Mr. Jiang's voice.

The call connected quickly, and Jiang Haochen's voice, like the warm sunshine outside the window, warmed his body.

Did I wake you up?

"No, I was about to wake up anyway."

Jiang Haochen: "So early? I remembered your scene today was in the afternoon. Did you change the time?"

Chi Yuan was taken aback: "You knew?"

Jiang Haochen's deep laughter came through: "I timed my arrival perfectly and even booked the highest room in the hotel, which has an outdoor swimming pool."

Jiang Haochen's lines were excellent; the unspoken words in his tone made people blush, especially if it were Chi Yuan from before yesterday.

Chi Yuan: "I'm sorry."

Jiang Haochen: "Little cat, I was very satisfied yesterday too."

Chi Yuan gave a soft "hmm".

Jiang Haochen smiled, as if his palm had been tickled by a feather, "By the way, why did you call me in the middle of the night? Did you dial the wrong number?"

Chi Yuan acted spoiled for once: "No, I just suddenly really wanted to hear your voice."

She's teasing him again.

Jiang Haochen: "What do you want to hear?"

Chi Yuan let out a puzzled "Ah".

Jiang Haochen: "I didn't want to hear my voice, I just wanted to record a clip for you."

Chi Yuan was pleasantly surprised: "Is that okay?"

Jiang Haochen was in a good mood today. He casually picked up a poetry collection from the bookshelf in the hotel lobby: "I picked up a book, I'll just read whatever I happen to be flipping to. Hmm, why is it this one?"

Chi Yuan immediately tensed up: "What's wrong?"

Jiang Haochen smiled and said, "It's okay, I've started reading. Did you record it?"

"Um."

On the other end of the phone, Jiang Haochen's voice came through gently:

I love you, not just because of what you look like.

Also because of how I am when I'm with you.

I love you, not only because of what you've done for me.

Also because of what I can do for you.

I love you because you bring out the truest part of me.

I love you, because you cross the wilderness of my heart.

It's as easy as sunlight penetrating crystal.

The most beautiful place in my heart

I am illuminated by your light.

I love you because you have transformed my life from the mundane to the extraordinary.

Because of you, my life is no longer just an ordinary hotel.

It was transformed into a magnificent temple.

I love you, because you make my life more wonderful than any belief.

Because you make my life more joyful than fate.

And all of this you've done...

Simply because you are you.
