My crush wants to be my sugar daddy.

Chapter 8: Do you want to come with me?

"No...no." Chi Yuan was startled and stammered in denial.

"Then why are you so nervous?" Jiang Haochen asked.

"I...I'm your fan. I'm a little nervous meeting my idol," Chi Yuan silently added in his mind.

Besides being a fan, I also have a crush on you.

Jiang Haochen clicked his tongue: "You're my fan? That's not good news."

Chi Yuan's face turned pale. Had Mr. Jiang become so disliked that he wouldn't even want to be his fan anymore?

Jiang Haochen added in a deep voice, "So I'm not a fangirl?"

Chi Yuan's face changed from white to red, the color change was as if a chameleon had come to life.

"I...I'm not...you..." Chi Yuan was so anxious he was about to cry. Sleeping with fans was a big no-no, and he had ruined Mr. Jiang's reputation. "Then I won't be your fan anymore."

This was the only solution Chi Yuan could think of.

Jiang Haochen nodded: "Yeah, after sleeping with the fans, they unfollowed me."

Chi Yuan: "No, that's not what I meant."

Seeing that Chi Yuan was genuinely anxious, Jiang Haochen finally stopped teasing him: "I was just kidding."

That joke is going to scare him to death!

Jiang Haochen: "Who told you to stay silent the whole way and treat me like a driver?"

Chi Yuan clutched the hem of his clothes: "I...I don't know what to talk about?"

Jiang Haochen tried to start a conversation: "Let's talk about the person you like. I remember it was a crush, right?"

Chi Yuan nodded.

Jiang Haochen: "How long have you had this crush?"

Chi Yuan did the math: "Three, three years."

Jiang Haochen did the math: "You're twenty-one this year, and you've had a crush for three years, which means you started having a crush when you were exactly eighteen."

Chi Yuan's eyes brightened slightly: "Do you know how old I am?"

Jiang Haochen said matter-of-factly, "A stranger suddenly appeared in my room, and that kind of thing happened. It's not unreasonable to investigate, is it?"

The light in Chi Yuan's eyes dimmed; he realized he had been overthinking things: "It's not excessive."

Jiang Haochen: "Did you fall in love at first sight?"

Chi Yuan glanced at Jiang Haochen and whispered, "No, I've actually known him for a long time, since I was thirteen."

Jiang Haochen: "Then why did you only start liking someone at eighteen?"

Chi Yuan: "Because we can't have relationships too early."

Jiang Haochen almost thought he had misheard: "What did you say?"

Chi Yuan had no choice but to repeat himself: "Early romance is bad."

"Pfft!!" Jiang Haochen finally couldn't hold back and burst out laughing. "You, with your crush, still care about whether it's early or not? You're killing me with laughter."

Chi Yuan felt a little wronged. It was you who said that it was bad for minors to have early romantic relationships.

Jiang Haochen rose to fame with a youth campus idol drama, which had a huge impact when it aired. In an interview, when asked about his views on campus romance, Jiang Haochen said that minors should focus on their studies and that early relationships are not good.

It's just that so much time has passed that Jiang Haochen himself doesn't remember, but Chi Yuan does.

Seeing Chi Yuan's bad expression, Jiang Haochen thought he had hurt him with his words, so he stopped laughing: "So you must have liked him a long time ago, but you only started to have a crush on him when you became an adult."

It's hilarious that having a formal timeframe for unrequited love is ridiculous.

Chi Yuan nodded.

Jiang Haochen: "We met when I was thirteen, back then..."

Talking about this topic with Jiang Haochen gave Chi Yuan the illusion that he was secretly confessing his feelings, and his heart was filled with bittersweet emotions: "I was too young back then, it was just a simple crush."

Jiang Haochen became even more curious: "How did you find out later?"

Chi Yuan suddenly blushed and refused to say a word.

Jiang Haochen suddenly understood and said ambiguously, "When you're thinking about that, you're thinking about the person you like."

Chi Yuan was so embarrassed that he wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

You guessed right, this kid is really easy to understand.

Jiang Haochen couldn't help but tease him again: "Then your first time wasn't with me either, it was clearly someone you had a crush on."

No, it's you.

"No, to be precise, your first time after that was mine, it's just that your first time before wasn't."

It's you, whether you're in front or behind me, it's always you.

Jiang Haochen: "Why not just confess your feelings directly?"

Chi Yuan said with a bitter expression, "He won't like me."

I wouldn't have done that before, and I certainly won't now.

I originally thought that one day, when I had gained some fame in the entertainment industry and was closer to you, if you were still single at that time, I would muster up the courage to confess my feelings to you.

But after that one night of misunderstanding, in your heart, I must have become a treacherous little man who only knows how to climb into bed.

Regarding that night, Chi Yuan's memories alternated between regret and joy. He regretted his choice, losing the opportunity to confess his feelings on equal footing later. He was joyful because he had spent time with the person he liked.

Jiang Haochen: "How would you know if I didn't confess?"

Chi Yuan kept repeating, "He won't like me."

So determined? Could it be that she likes straight men? If so, that's definitely impossible.

Jiang Haochen comforted him, "Since it's impossible, then let it go."

Chi Yuan's eyes flickered with tears. Was Jiang Haochen telling me to let go a rejection?

That's true, he never liked me anyway.

Chi Yuan gave a muffled "Mmm": "I will try my best."

He's really quite innocent; perhaps it's precisely because of this innocence that he was able to refuse another instance of unspoken rules.

But how many more times can this pure heart resist temptation?

Chi Yuan was caught in an emotional state, and when he came to his senses, he found that the car had already entered the city.

He hurriedly said, "Mr. Jiang, just drop me off at any intersection, I'll take a taxi myself."

Jiang Haochen glanced at him and parked the car on the side of the road.

"Thank you for giving me a ride back." Chi Yuan thanked him politely, unbuckled his seatbelt and was about to get out of the car when Jiang Haochen's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Chi Yuan."

Chi Yuan turned around.

"Want to come with me?"

Jiang Haochen saw the boy's eyes change from confusion to shock, but he showed no fear or disgust.

Jiang Haochen breathed a sigh of relief. When he chased after the boy from the hotel, he knew he had fallen for him.

Long after that night, he still often thought about it. Every time he saw the boy, he didn't dislike him; in fact, he couldn't help but tease him.

Since you like it, why not keep it with you? At least the color you produce with your own paint won't look too bad.

Jiang Haochen was a decisive person: "Although I'm not a good person, I'm definitely not a bad one. I have some resources in the industry, and if you follow me, I certainly won't be stingy. I can help you pay the breach of contract penalty, and even get you signed with Tianyu."

Chi Yuan's mind was buzzing, and he still hadn't come to his senses.

Seeing that he remained silent, Jiang Haochen continued, "Of course, I didn't mean to force you. If you don't want to, you can just get off the bus, and we can pretend that tonight's events never happened."

Chi Yuan subconsciously loosened his grip on the handlebars.

Actions speak louder than words.

Jiang Haochen raised an eyebrow, a slow smile playing on his lips: "My apartment is right next door. If you don't get out of the car..."

Jiang Haochen didn't say what came next, but Chi Yuan understood.

Jiang Haochen stared at him for two seconds, then chuckled and drove into the residential area.

Chi Yuan followed Jiang Haochen into his apartment in a daze, and when he came to his senses, he was already pinned against the door.

Chi Yuan's legs were so weak that he could barely stand.

Jiang Haochen smiled knowingly: "Let's go to the bathtub, we don't have any lubricant at home."

That night, Chi Yuan almost drowned in the bathtub.

Don't get me wrong, it's not because of the water.
