Pei Yun x Ye Xizhou
Older man, scheming CEO gong x clearheaded, career-focused shou
Ye Xizhou never imagined he would have anything to do with Pei Yun.
He was an executive assistant at an architecture firm. His daily routine involved working overtime, making PowerPoint presentations, and taking drinks on his boss’s behalf. His motto in life was to do his job well and mind his own business. When it came to wealthy social circles and lavish banquets, he avoided them whenever he could.
Before meeting Pei Yun, his biggest goal was to save up one million yuan and retire back in his hometown. After meeting him, Ye Xizhou went from avoiding him to accepting his favors, then somehow becoming his assistant, and finally finding himself drawn to him. It was all far removed from the life he’d planned.
Pei Yun was the president of Jingjian Group, and he never lacked for entertainment. The first time he saw Ye Xizhou at a friend’s engagement banquet, he had to admit that Ye Xizhou’s face was exactly his type.
But that was all.
If Ye Xizhou had been dull and unlikeable, Pei Yun wouldn’t have set his heart on him. Besides, a friend had warned him that Ye Xizhou was Chen Sinian’s friend and told him not to mess around. So Pei Yun put those thoughts aside.
Ye Xizhou knew nothing about any of this. Later, when a company project needed to use one of Pei Yun’s venues, Pei Yun discreetly made things easier for him. Unwilling to owe him a favor, Ye Xizhou agreed to attend a banquet as his male companion.
From then on, the two spent more time together. By the time Ye Xizhou realized what was happening, things had already changed.
After they got together, Ye Xizhou asked, “There’s a guy in my village who bought apartments for all his lovers in the same complex. When he visits them, it’s like an emperor choosing his concubines. Is that the kind of life you want me to have?”
Pei Yun glared at him. “Bullshit. I’m no emperor, and I don’t have any concubines. I have one beloved, and his name is Ye Xizhou.”
