Xun Yan goes out for a drive every week to relax. Lately, he has been feeling pressured by his family. They nag him every day, saying that he's getting old and should get married. They suggest that he consider Lin Uncle's daughter, who just returned from abroad. They say she is a nice girl, very dignified, and they even arrange blind dates for them.

This is not for his own good at all; it is clearly for the benefit of the company. He doesn't want to be a sacrificial lamb for the company, especially since he's only twenty-one. He shouldn't be constrained at an age when he should be enjoying dating.

When he was very young, he had encountered Lin Qiongjin. At that time, he lifted her skirt and got punched, losing a tooth. It truly became an unforgettable memory in his life. After all these years, she no longer resembled the graceful lady his mother described. Instead, she had a neat short haircut and behaved in a way that made it hard to believe she was a girl when she didn't speak.

A beggar, seemingly appearing out of nowhere, blocked the way, causing Xun Yan to impatiently halt the car.

"Get lost and die somewhere else. Today has really been unlucky," Xun Yan said in a disgustingly tone. How could these beggars nowadays be so ignorant? Could it be they still want to stage a fake accident?"

"My car had an accident, so... could I trouble you to take me to a nearby hotel?" Shen Liqing explained his situation. He needed to find a place to stay for the time being. The young man in front of him had a bit of a temper, so he had to speak with a very gentle tone.

Xun Yan sized up Shen Liqing. It was evident that he was wearing a designer brand, despite it being worn-out. His skin appeared to be in good condition, and he also had a slim figure. Surely, he would be good in bed too... Xun Yan suddenly snapped back to reality and was startled. He quickly expelled such thoughts from his mind. Although he had been hurt by Lin Qiongji's blow, he was not so desperate that he would seek solace from an older man.

Get in the car. Consider yourself lucky today," Xun Yan opened the car door, gesturing for Shen Liqing to get in. He wanted to do a good deed today, hoping to accumulate more merit and escape his parents' nagging as soon as possible.

The development of the situation was smoother than anticipated. This young man was quite audacious, and it was thought that he would encounter some difficulties. Today, he had experienced too much. The wind blowing against him was somewhat chilly for his slender frame, but he was exhausted. His heavy body gradually clouded his vision.

"Hey, old man." Xun Yan cast a disdainful glance at Shen Liqing, who had been sleeping peacefully all the way. Despite his disheveled appearance, he exuded an innate refined charm.

Shen Liqing opened his eyes and was suddenly overwhelmed by a bustling scene bathed in colorful lights and filled with the aroma of alcohol. With the hotel in front of him, he knew it was time to get off the car.

"Thank you." His mind was currently in disarray. Shen Lu had been tracking his identity information, and if he were to use personal information recklessly, Shen Lu would definitely find out. "Could I trouble you to help me book a room? I don't have an ID card." He had already prepared himself for the possibility of sleeping on the streets.

"You're such an old man with so many demands. I'm unlucky to have stumbled upon such a mess," Little did I expect this old man to be so ungrateful. I must teach him a lesson later, or else he'll truly start thinking of himself as a philanthropist."

Shen Liqing was brought by Xun Yan to the luxurious suite in the hotel. In fact, this young man in front of him was quite handsome. His childish nature reminded him of Shen Lu. The memories of Shen Lu relying on him in the past felt like a previous life.

"I really owe you for this. This room is where I often stay." Thinking about the waiter's strange scrutinizing earlier when he arrived, Xun Yan felt a little annoyed. What happened to him today that he was being so kind-hearted?

"Do you want to leave now?" Shen Liqing asked.

The room looks pretty good. Shen Liqing planned to take a good bath and rest. He wasn't used to having others in his personal space, even though the current situation is quite pathetic.
