Chapter 9: 9

When a person has unchaste thoughts for another person, then any sentence the other person says was no longer simple, and every word has an underlying meaning left to the understanding of the listener.

       Therefore, when Suo Yang said that he liked the brand of Shen Huiming’s cufflinks, Shen Huiming understood that, at least between him and Jiang Tongyan, Suo Yang was more interested in him.

       Of course, Shen Huiming was a very clear-headed person, and he was not a smartass who keep going and talking more. Sometimes it was not appropriate to speak too clearly when dealing with some people.

       The two looked at each other and smiled, Suo Yang seemed to inadvertently look away, and continued to handle the song with ease.

       Hands held together, veins linking to the heart.

       The warmth of the heated fingertips also reached the tip of the heart.

       Perhaps he really received some hints of the so-called ‘fate’, and Suo Yang kept thinking about his ‘fate’ with Shen Huiming.

       The first meeting was at an altitude of 30,000 feet, and the second meeting was in thousands of square kilometres’ foreign country.

       Now, for the third time, he was accidentally introduced to Jiang Tongyan, who had a ‘magical’ relationship with Shen Huiming.

       Everything seemed to be implying something.

       Suo Yang couldn’t help but pay attention to these successive ‘coincidences’.

       He felt that perhaps when they first met, on the sky he was familiar with, someone was playing with their fate on a whim, tying an obscure knot between them.

       “What are you laughing at?” Shen Huiming asked softly.

       Suo Yang looked at him without hesitation and replied, “I’m laughing that fate is so unpredictable.”

       At the end of the song, Jiang Tongyan returned to find his first dance partner as soon as possible. However, Shen Huiming very unkindly refused to let go of Suo Yang’s hand, and said to Jiang Tongyan, “Now he is my partner.”

       Jiang Tongyan chuckled, “Can I say something?”

       The two men stood on either side of Suo Yang, looking at each other with a smirk.

       Suo Yang said nothing, let go of Shen Huiming’s hand, and went back to find a drink.

       The man who just danced with Jiang Tongyan passed by them and dropped a line, “When rivals in love meet, both would be green with envy, and you two will have blood dripping from your eyes!”

       Jiang Tongyan smiled, “Rivals in love? Are we two rivals in love again?”

       Shen Huiming replied seriously, “Depends on how you interpret it.”

       He touched his pocket, turned to look at Suo Yang, who was sitting there drinking, and said to Jiang Tongyan, “Let’s go out for a cigarette?”

       The two of them needed to have a good chat, just like real love rivals.

       Jiang Tongyan followed Shen Huiming to the outside, shut down all the noise in the room, and faced the noise outside.

       He took the cigarette handed by Shen Huiming, lit it for the two of them, and asked with a smile in his eyes, “The first time?”

       Shen Huiming took a drag on his cigarette and smiled too, “Probably.”

       “Tell me about it?” Jiang Tongyan laughed, “I’m quite surprised.”

       “I’ve met him twice before,” Shen Huiming said, “Do you believe in love at first sight?”

       “I believe in love at the first appearance.” Jiang Tongyan said to him, “You just can see how good-looking some people are.”

       “He is good-looking, and you’ve never seen him in a uniform. It’s unforgettable at a glance.” Shen Huiming said, “The first time I saw him was on his plane, I’m not afraid of you teasing me, I asked for his contact information, but he didn’t give it.”

       Jiang Tongyan laughed, “Well done!”

       Shen Huiming also laughed, “I thought that was it. I didn’t leave my contact details and I was afraid that we wouldn’t meet again in the future, but to my surprise, it seems that the fate of the two of us has not run out.”

       Jiang Tongyan stared at him with a light smile, and the smoke he exhaled slightly blurred the vision between the two of them.

       “So now it’s a declaration of war?” Jiang Tongyan asked, “I’m a little nervous now, after all, I’m going back to New York the day after tomorrow, and after all, you’re in the pavilion closest to the water enjoying moonlight first1.”

       “It’s not a declaration of war,” Shen Huiming said, “I’m just curious about what you’re thinking.”

       He turned around and looked at Jiang Tongyan, “Although I have the confidence to get the moon first, I still want to know if you really want to be with him, or…”

       Jiang Tongyan laughed.

       “Old Shen, I’m calling you Old Shen, don’t you understand?” Jiang Tongyan looked at him seriously, “At 30, we both are already clear that neither you nor I are the rash young man we were back then, I am not that naive.”

       He took a drag from his cigarette, “Suo Yang is not bad, at least he gave me a very good first impression, he is my ideal perfect lover.”

       He smiled and looked at Shen Huiming, “Let me tell you this, gay marriage is now legal in New York and I can give him a stable marital relationship.”

       “Do you think this is your advantage?” Shen Huiming also smiled, “Besides, you only met for the first time today. Isn’t it too early to talk about this now?”

       After the cigarette was finished, Shen Huiming threw the cigarette butt into the trashcan, “Tongyan, I didn’t think we both could get away with it.”

       “I really didn’t think so.” Jiang Tongyan followed him and threw away the cigarette butt, smiling relaxedly, “So it would have been better if we hadn’t reunited?”

       Both of them looked at each other meaningfully.

       “I suddenly remember one thing now,” Jiang Tongyan said. “The night when the negotiation ended, your assistant drove us, and halfway through you got out of the car to talk to someone and later let us go first.”

       Jiang Tongyan asked softly, “The person I met at that time was Suo Yang, right?”

       Shen Huiming smiled, “Look, you missed the beginning.”

       Old friends met again yet surprisingly they turned tense at their reunion. Although from who they were, it seemed a bit ridiculous to do this for a man that both of them had not yet been intimately acquainted with. Even Jiang Tongyan was a little confused for a moment whether he had to fight with Shen Huiming because he really had to have Suo Yang or whether he simply was annoyed.

       “Let me remind you of one thing,” Jiang Tongyan said, “Suo Yang was introduced to me by Zhou Mo. It was you who rejected it at the beginning and then he was introduced to me. It was you who missed out.”

       “Let me also remind you of one thing, the so-called ‘introduction’ is a two-way choice, it’s not a one-shot deal.” Shen Huiming lightly rubbed his cufflinks with his fingers, he said, “If Suo Yang also expressed his affection for you and decided to try a relationship with you, I’ll withdraw unconditionally. However, if he doesn’t make a stand, we are all still outsiders in his world.”

       Shen Huiming smiled, “We’re done talking and we’re done smoking, shall we go back?”

       The two turned around and walked back together.

       Jiang Tongyan said, “Old Shen, to be honest, I am very confident to break that curse this time.”

       “I’m also very confident,” Shen Huiming said with a smile, “to keep that curse.”

       The two returned to the room where the people were dancing wildly. Suo Yang was chatting with Zhou Mo about something while drinking.

       Jiang Tongyan said, “I haven’t had sex for more than a year.”

       Shen Huiming glared at him, and raised his hand to give Jiang Tongyan another hard slap on the chest, “Behave yourself, don’t be obnoxious.”

       Jiang Tongyan laughed and said, “Look at you, I’m just saying about it. I don’t believe you don’t have that in mind for him.”

       How could he not?

       Shen Huiming looked at Suo Yang who was sitting there.

       Some people’s presence was comparable to that of the strongest wine, which could make you slightly drunk at a distance, and by the time you got closer, you couldn’t wait to get drunk in the smell.
