Once An Xiaoyan walked in, he knew that something was wrong. This was not a dining place at all!

Inside was a scene of feasting and revelry. There was a huge dance floor with men and women dressed differently dancing.

Even though An Xiaoyan did not have much life experience, he knew what kind of place it was.

A man paid no attention to him and led him upstairs into a private room.

An Xiaoyan calmed himself down and pushed the door open.

In the room were a bunch of people dressed in suits and leather shoes, sitting on the sofa. There were red wine and snacks on the table and everything looked misty under the dim yellow lights.

When the people in the room saw a stranger walking in, they looked at An Xiaoyan as if they wanted to see through him.

“Come over,” Gu Jun’s deep voice pulled him over like a magnet. When An Xiaoyan approached Gu Jun, his skin was cold and his heart was racing. He could not control his fear.

Gu Jun patted the seat next to him, “Sit here.”

“President Gu, when did you get to know such a special thing? He looks so endearing,” said a real estate developer, President Zheng.

Zheng was famous for sleeping with men. He was a married man and father, his wife had aged and lost her charm to him. He always had fun brazenly when he was out. Many people who wanted to fawn on him would send beautiful men to him.

“President Zheng, you are especially lively in this aspect for a man your age,” said Gu Jun. President Zheng could not tell whether what Gu Jun said was good or bad, thus did not know how to answer it. He simply touched his shining bald head and laughed embarrassed. Who would not appreciate beautiful creatures?

“Let’s all relax today. Don’t worry about etiquette or anything like that. Let’s eat, drink and have fun.”

Since Gu Jun said so, no one held back and they started to toast each other.

An Xiaoyan sat on the sofa but felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles. So far, he had not figured out what was on Gu Jun’s mind and the reason why he needed to be present.

Gu Jun was not in a hurry either. He was enjoying the company of those around him and did not seem to pay any attention to An Xiaoyan beside him. He probably just wanted to wear off An Xiaoyan’s character and to let An Xiaoyan know whose territory it was.

President Zheng was the most liberal today. Once Gu Jun told them not to hold back, President Zheng kept staring at the waiter who was pouring wine. There was a dazzle of desire in President Zheng’s eyes, just shy of going up and caressing the waiter. When everyone saw Zheng’s hungry face, they covered their mouths and giggled. Zheng seemed to be able to lift his crotch anytime.

Everyone else’s temperament was about the same. Gu Jun rose from the sofa and came to the front of the pool table. As Gu Jun moved, a group of people opened the way for him.

“It’s no fun to play like that. Let’s change the way we party and have a good time.”

Everyone’s interest was raised. Since Gu Jun said that he wanted to party, everyone had to play along.

“President Gu, how should we play this? Tell us the rules.”

Gu Jun took a cue from the waiter and struck the white ball on the table. The white ball hit the black ball. The black ball rebounded several times on the pool table and finally got into the pocket.

“Let’s compete in billiards. Each one of us will find a partner and take turns playing. Each time you enter a ball into the pocket, your partner will take off a piece of clothing. Once your partner finished stripping, you can go back first.”

Once Gu Jun finished his sentence, President Zheng twisted his fat body and grinned, “President Gu, I can just find someone who only wears a one piece.”

Everyone took a deep breath when they heard it. Whoever dared to challenge Gu Jun’s words must have lived enough.

Instead of being angry, Gu Jun replied generously, “It is up to you. But if I look for a well-dressed one, would you dare to look for a half-naked one?”

It was obvious that everyone had to follow his lead. Who would dare to win the game so quickly?

“Find your own partner, and the game will start in half an hour.”

Hearing that, President Zheng’s eyes lit up, swayed his body and went to look for the manager. He had not touched anyone for a long time and could not wait to have some fun.

The whole room was half empty as everyone went out to find a partner. An Xiaoyan was still sitting on the sofa. The rock music in the room was too loud for he to hear what Gu Jun had said.

It was not until Gu Jun came to him that An Xiaoyan stood up at a loss.

“Sat long enough?”

In the voice, there was a sense of indifference and dislike. An Xiaoyan thought for a while and nodded his head.

“Then play a game with me later.”

Before An Xiaoyan could ask what the game was, Gu Jun dragged him to the front of the pool table.　　

There were many colored balls in the tripod on the table. He thought that Gu Jun wanted him to play billiards and said honestly, “Mr. Gu, I don’t know how to play.”

Gu Jun felt that it was funny when he heard it as he was not concerned whether An Xiaoyan knew how to play or not. He lowered his head and whispered to An Xiaoyan, “Who told you to play? I can’t help but admire how beautiful you look today.”

During the next ten minutes, Gu Jun went to the other side of the room and drank alone, leaving An Xiaoyan standing alone at the table. When others saw them together, they knew that the two of them had a special relationship. Thus, no one went up to An Xiaoyan to strike up a conversation.

When the hand on the watch pointed to six, Gu Jun put down his glass and strode to the table. It was obvious that he wanted to be the first one.

“Am I late?” A heavy panting sound came from the door. President Zheng stood at the door with a teenager who looked no more than eighteen or nineteen years old. His face was covered in sweat. You could tell that he ran his way back to be in time for the game.

President Zheng looked at the table. Seeing that the balls were left untouched, he knew he made it in time and was relieved. He pinched the little beauty on his ass after putting his hand on the back of the little beauty. If it were not for finding a young and beautiful person, he would not let others laugh at him. He just had to endure for a while before he could show the little beauty what he’s got.

“Everyone’s here, let’s start,” Gu Jun stroke the first ball. With a “bang”, all the balls scattered across the table. After many collisions, a red ball entered the pocket.

Everyone was still looking at the balls rolling on the table, and then another red ball went into another pocket. They were going to see some fun as Gu Jun scored two goals at once.

The green ball on the table was still rolling slowly. When it was about to stop, it seemed to have endless energy and bounced back to the corner of the table, then rolled towards the opposite pocket. Finally, it fell into the pocket accurately.

“President Gu proved to be the best, I bet nobody can strike three pockets in a single shot,” President Zheng was the first to sing his praises. In fact, it was both flattery and truth. President Zheng who had been playing billiards for more than ten years could only manage two pockets in a single stroke.

“Is this your partner, President Gu?” a man next to him pointed to An Xiaoyan and asked. It had to be him as he was the only new face in the place, someone with his sort of look did not belong at such a place.

“Yes, he’s my partner.”
