Daquan looked through the camera and ordered:

"Open the gate now."

A-Xuan smirked and opened it. You should enjoy those moments because you’re going to suffer soon enough.

When Daquan saw the gates opening, he smiled satisfactorily. He drove to the front door. He got out of his car and knocked on the door.

The door opened slowly and a cute head peeked through the opening. He heard the youth ask coldly:

"What are you doing here?"

Daquan smiled and pushed him, passing through easily. He started looking around, walking with large strides to the living room.

The youth tried to stop him from entering like he was hiding something. When he saw the broken vase on the floor, he turned to look at his cold face and smirked:

"What, you didn’t want me to know you shattered that vase out of anger?"

The youth’s eyes darkened slightly.

"What are you doing here?"

Daquan looked at him amused. He’s going to make him break, and he’s going to have fun doing it.

He smelled a sweet aroma and followed it. When he entered the dining room, he saw the food spread and sat like he was invited.

He picked up two chopsticks and looked at the youth standing beside the table, his eyes still cold as always. He smiled and said:

"Come eat."

A-Xuan sat and started to eat. They ate in comfortable silence. Daquan can’t even remember the last time he ate with someone. He would always eat quickly at his office while working.

The person he would "date," he would only spend a couple of hours of fun with them and nothing more, nothing less. Even with Chao, they never ate sitting around a table. They both knew it was just sex, so why would they pretend?

When A-Xuan finished eating, he left for the kitchen, wiping everything clean while Daquan sat behind the counter watching him.

Every once in a while, the youth would turn, taking cold peeks at him. Daquan was amused. When he finished, he turned and said:

"It’s late, I’m going to bed."

When Daquan stayed in place without saying anything, he became impatient.

"President Li, it’s late, you should go home."

Daquan laughed and walked to him, standing very close to him. At that, A-Xuan didn’t move and looked at him expressionlessly. When Daquan saw that the youth had no reaction, he pulled him into his embrace.

A-Xuan asked:

"Why are you here?"

"To talk about the lawsuit."

A-Xuan said:

"So you came here to protect your boyfriend."

Daquan’s eyes darkened.

He pushed A-Xuan against the fridge and held both his wrists at the side of his head. He ordered:

"Don’t call him that ever again, do you understand?"

He had no intention of ever being in a relationship with Chao and now that he’s seen what kind of person he is, he’ll only keep their relationship superficial. He came to apologize and he said he’ll let it go for his father.

When A-Xuan’s eyes moistened and he started to cry, Daquan felt stunned and let go of him.

A-Xuan looked down and massaged his red wrists. He asked, his head still down:

"What did I do to deserve this from you and Chao?"

Daquan felt uncomfortable hearing that. He thought that it would be fun to see him break from his countenance but that’s not what he meant.

He looked down at his chest when he felt his heart clench. He frowned as he looked up at A-Xuan. It makes him uneasy to see him cry, despite his cold face he feels like this person should always have a smile on his face.

Realizing why he’s been wanting to make him react he felt stunned. Why does he care if he smiles or not? He shook his head to focus. He’ll just do what he planned.

He grabbed A-Xuan’s wrist and massaged it. A-Xuan looked up, he met his eyes and said:

"Chao isn’t my boyfriend, we’ve never been together. My father is his godfather. I would never let anyone use my name and power to act as they please. I built my company from the ground up so why would I jeopardize that for some useless actor?"

He looked into A-Xuan’s eyes and felt relief when he saw that he believed him.

"I told him that he’s not to do this again and the crew knows that too. I don’t want you to feel uncomfortable. If I knew everything that had been going on I would’ve stopped it."

A-Xuan looked at him then away. Daquan said:

"I came because I have a proposition."

A-Xuan looked at him again. Daquan let go of his hand and said while massaging the other:

"I’ll release you free from the contract when we’re done shooting Spring Kings with a large settlement if you don’t sue the agency."

A-Xuan said with cold eyes:

"I’ll gain more if I go to trial."

Daquan couldn’t stop himself from smiling, he likes it better when A-Xuan is his cold and haughty self than crying or sad.

"Your attorney fees will be in the millions, you know that my agency has an army of lawyers and money is no object for me. After what you said I looked at your file and saw that you’ve only had background roles this past year so you weren’t making much."

He took a step forward and said after looking around the room:

"You live in a mansion and seeing how clean it is I gather you have a large staff. I’m sure that you were only able to keep them because you had money saved up and whatever you have left won’t last forever."

When he saw A-Xuan looking at him angrily, he knew that his assumption was right. Daquan said:

"Just finish filming the show and you’ll be done with the agency and Chao. Not only will you get a 20% raise but you’ll get a 5,000,000 settlement. Thanks to the show you’ll easily find a new agency."

A-Xuan looked at him thinking, then said:

"I want a clause to be added."

Daquan was glad to hear he is on board. He knows full well that if this goes to court he’ll lose more than the settlement.

"What clause?"

A-Xuan smirked.

"For every incident that happens on set, no matter how small, I’ll get paid an additional million."

Daquan’s heartbeat quickened in excitement when he saw his smile. He doesn’t understand why he wants to make A-Xuan his so much but he does. He thought and said:

"I agree if you’re mine."

A-Xuan’s smirk faded and he asked:

"What do you mean?"

Daquan pulled him in his embrace.

"You’ll be mine until we’re done shooting Spring Kings. You must spend every night by my side."

Daquan’s heartbeat quickened as if A-Xuan saying no would mean that he would lose something valuable. A-Xuan answered as coldly as always:

"Fine."

Daquan was surprised that he didn’t seem to care. He asked:

"Do you know what I mean when I say spending every night?"

"Sex."

Daquan tilted his head, looking at A-Xuan. It seems like he has the same view as him when it comes to sex. Daquan smiled.

"I have the contract, I’ll add in the clauses and we’ll sign it now."

A-Xuan simply nodded. Daquan let go of him and went to get his bag. A-Xuan sat behind the counter waiting for him. When he saw Daquan’s bag, he narrowed his eyes.

Daquan smiled. As he wrote down the new clauses he said:

"I knew you would agree."

A-Xuan rolled his eyes. Husband, is that what you do with every one of your boy toys? Do you always bring everything you need to spend the night?

When Daquan was finished, he grabbed the contract and skimmed through it. When he saw that it was in order, he signed it, then Daquan did. Daquan put the paper away and pulled A-Xuan in his embrace again.

He said seductively:

"I have nowhere to sleep tonight, can I stay?"

That husband of his will beg on his knees at the end. He’s playing a dangerous game, but messing with him is going to be fun.
