You Zhong looked away and didn't say anything more.

Standing by the side, Fang Qingning could see clearly that what Lin and Xi picked up was clearly a watch, but what they took out of their pockets was a hotel key card.

She wasn't sure if You Zhong saw clearly when he approached, but she didn't want to interfere with the two people in front of her, so she didn't say anything.

Lin Hexi sent her to the side of the road to get into the car, and You Zhong followed behind him.

After the car that came to pick up Fang Qingning left, Lin Hexi turned to look at You Zhong, feeling a little timid about being close to home and not knowing how to bring up the topic.

You Zhong took the initiative to speak and solved his troubles: "Are you still living in the original hotel?"

Lin and Xi were a little surprised. It seems that the other party probably won't mention the past in a short time.He followed You Zhong's question and nodded.

You Zhong said: "I'll ask my assistant to drive the car over, and I'll take you back to change your pants."

Lin Hexi wanted to say that there was no need, as it could be dried in the sun, and You Zhong had already taken out his mobile phone to call his assistant.

He had no choice but to swallow the words that came to his lips, lowered his head and lifted his trousers that were still dripping.

The assistant drove the car to a temporary parking space on the side of the road, got out of the car, and gave up the driving seat to You Zhong.

You Zhong walked around the front of the car and walked towards the driver's seat. Before getting in the car, he caught a glimpse of Lin Hexi standing still, and looked at him through the car, "Is there any question?"

Lin and Xi do have problems.

He hesitated between the co-pilot and the rear seat, and simply asked straight to the point, "Where do I sit?"

Judging from the fact that the other party offered to drive him off, he didn't think You Zhong would be so stingy that he wouldn't even give his ex-boyfriend a co-pilot seat.

He just didn't want to go to the co-pilot to smell the lady's perfume, and add any trouble to himself for no reason.

You Zhong's answer was also neat: "You want me to be your driver?"

Without saying anything, Lin Hexi directly opened the co-pilot's door, bent down and sat in.

To his surprise, the car was clean without any messy smell of perfume.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Lin Hexi asked him, "Are there any clean tissues?"

You Zhong didn't turn his head to look at him, but asked in a neutral tone: "Where is the paper box, don't you know?"

Lin Hexi raised his eyes to look at him subconsciously, and after a while, he replied calmly: "You changed the car, how would I know."

The traffic light at the intersection ahead jumped red, You Zhong stepped on the brakes, and said to him, "You can verify it yourself."

Lin Hexi was stunned when he heard the words. He felt that there was something in his words, and he suspected that he was thinking too much. In the end, he didn't ask any more questions. He raised his hand to open the drawer in front of the car, and pulled out two pieces of paper to absorb the water from his trousers.

The hotel staff knew the license plate, and You Zhong drove the car directly into the hotel's underground parking lot.

After the car under him stopped, Lin Hexi unfastened his seat belt and got out of the car. He turned to thank You Zhong before closing the door, but saw You Zhong also opened the door and walked out of the car.

Noticing that Lin and Xi were looking at him, You Zhong's expression remained unchanged, "I have an appointment with a client."

Lin Hexi nodded and entered the elevator with him.

He has now confirmed that the conversation he had with You Zhong in the car was exactly what he was thinking.Apparently even driving him back was just a matter of dropping by.

After getting out of the elevator, the two parted ways.

Lin Hexi took two steps forward, remembering what Fang Qingning told him in the restaurant at noon, couldn't help but stop and turn around.

However, the corridor behind him had become empty, You Zhong turned into another road at the end of the corridor without hesitation.

After staring at the not-so-long corridor behind him for two seconds, Lin Hexi came back to his senses and walked towards his room.

About 10 minutes later, there was a knock on the door of Lin Hexi's room.

The person who came to him was You Zhong's foreign client, who was dressed in casual and loose sportswear, and warmly invited him to play tennis at the tennis hall in the hotel.

Lin and Xi asked, "Is it just the two of us?"

Michael said: "And Mr. You, I heard that Mr. You came to the hotel to do business, I met him in the elevator."

"Meet by chance?" Lin Hexi repeated in English, wondering if there was something wrong with his hearing.

Michael insisted that it was a chance encounter.

Lin Hexi lowered his eyes in surprise, and looked absently at the carpet on the floor of the corridor.

So You Zhong didn't drive him back on the way, and it was just the other party's random reason to come to Michael?

Although he didn't know why the other party lied to him, it didn't prevent Lin Hexi from feeling better instantly.

When he raised his head again, he smiled and looked at Michael, "Please wait for me for 2 minutes, I will change my clothes."

He didn't bring any casual sportswear suitable for playing back home, and originally planned to wear jeans to go out. Michael took him to his room and found another set of clean sportswear for him to wear.

Lin and Xi didn't waste any more time to shirk, and went downstairs with Michael after changing their clothes.

The hotel's tennis court was built indoors. At this time, no other guests were using the tennis court. You Zhong also changed his clothes and sat outside the court to wait for them.

When Lin Hexi and Michael approached, You Zhong realized that the sportswear they were wearing was a bit too similar.Others glanced over, as if seeing the same couple's outfit in different colors.

Although Michael was older than them, he was considered to be in his prime, and he had had boyfriends younger than him before.

You Zhong looked unhappy, got up and asked Lin Hexi in Chinese: "Are you wearing his clothes?"

Lin Hexi said: "I didn't bring my sportswear back to China."

Suppressing the unhappiness in his heart, You Zhong said to him directly: "Change with me."

Lin and Xi looked down at the pair of sweatpants they were wearing. Michael was about the same height and size as You Zhong, while Lin and Xi were a little shorter.

Although the pants are a bit long, they are not too long to hinder walking. Lin Hexi shook his head subconsciously, "I can wear them."

You Zhong said: "I'm not talking about that."

Responding belatedly, the other party didn't seem to care about him, Lin Hexi paused, and asked a little casually: "Then why—"

You Zhong interrupted him without changing his face: "This suit is a bit small on me. I am about the same height as Michael. You can change it with me."

Lin Hexi was stunned, and looked him over from head to toe, but found no inappropriate size for the suit worn by You Zhong.

And this kind of thought became a more intuitive feeling after Lin Hexi changed into the suit that Yuzhong had taken off.

There seemed to be a temperature that belonged to You Zhong on the clothes, as if to keep that temperature, Lin Hexi stood in the dressing room, couldn't help stretching out his hands to hug himself.

Until there was a knock on the door, You Zhong's urging voice came through the door.

Only then did Lin Hexi regain his senses, opened the door and walked out.

There were only three of them, and they temporarily sent someone over to play with them.

Lin Hexi and Michael were not as physically strong as You Zhong, so they left the field after 10 minutes and sat in the rest area drinking cold drinks brought by the staff.

Without the presence of other people, Michael Yan looked at him again, becoming as eager as in the elevator.

At first, the other party only asked about his work and hometown. When Michael was wondering why he stayed in a hotel and didn't go home, Lin and Xi didn't care too much, and they both told the truth.

However, when the other party asked about his sexual orientation, Lin Hexi was too slow to realize that the person in front of him seemed to have some thoughts about him.

When he was studying in the United States, he often encountered ostentatious courtship from foreigners.It's just that he didn't intend to hide his sexual orientation from the beginning to the end, and it's the same at this moment.

Lin Hexi said: "I don't like women."

As if getting a satisfactory answer, the smile on Michael's face widened a bit, "If you want to fall in love, what is the age gap you can accept?"

Lin Hexi raised his eyes and glanced at You Zhong, who was pressing down on his opponent in the field, then looked away, and answered somewhat absent-mindedly, "It's less than one year old."

When Michael heard this, he shrugged with a smile and suggested to him, "Maybe you can try something different."

Lin and Xi shook their heads, wanted to thank each other, and then told each other clearly that they didn't want to make new attempts.

As if seeing the rejection written on his face, Michael changed the subject appropriately: "Then let's talk about it differently."

Lin and Xi didn't really want to continue with him anymore, picked up the empty glass and stood up, the pretext that had been prepared had already slipped to their lips, but Michael took a step ahead and took away the opportunity to end the topic.

Looking up at Lin and Xi who had already stood up, Michael asked quite directly: "Do you have a boyfriend?"

Before Lin and Xi could answer, someone pressed their shoulders from their side.

You Zhong pushed him back into the seat, supported his shoulders and looked at the person across the table, and replied in a deep voice in English: "He has a boyfriend."

Michael's eyes alternated between their faces.

After a while, he showed a clear expression, stood up with regret on his face, turned around and said regretfully before leaving: "I took the liberty."

After Michael left, You Zhong took the hand on his shoulder away.

Keenly learned the fact that You Zhong was in a bad mood from the tone of the other party, and then recalling the story of You Zhong lying, Lin Hexi's heart moved slightly, and suddenly had the urge to test the other party.

And so he did.

Maintaining the posture of sitting on the chair without moving, he slowly raised his face, looking at You Zhong with deep eyes, "Thank you for helping me out."

To his surprise, You Zhong didn't answer.And it was obvious that the other party's mood didn't get better after Michael left.

After a very brief daze, the throbbing heart quickly quieted down, and Lin and Xi became uncertain again.
