Esports streamer Tang Ni works as a game companion on the side. One day, he runs into a sucker of a client. He might as well fleece him for all he's worth, so...
Kisses and sweet talk during the day, dirty talk over voice chat at night, calling him "hubby" every day.
Whenever he has nothing better to do, he likes to flirt: "I'm not just good at games. I'm amazing in bed too. Boss, want to find out sometime?"
He often leaves the boss speechless, then laughs himself silly.
As far as he's concerned, flirting feels good in the moment, and the more you do it, the better it feels.
After a while, the boss suggests meeting in person.
Tang Ni: "Who meets up with their online date these days? You're just an ATM to me."
He blocks him and says goodbye.
New semester, new roommate. Tang Ni panics the moment his new roommate speaks.
That low, sexy voice belongs to the sucker of a boss. Help!
But then he thinks it over: just pretend to be deaf. Who knows who?
Su Boze watches the young man who's been avoiding him, his gaze unreadable. One sentence from Tang Ni is all it takes for him to realize that this is the little liar.
The young man's soft voice is still ringing in his ears, having lulled him to sleep every night...
Taking advantage of a moment when the young man is alone, he corners him. The person he's been longing for is right in front of him, tense and flustered.
Su Boze gives a soft laugh.
"I believe you're good at games. But you said you're amazing in bed. Want to put that to the test tonight?"
Practice makes perfect.
The next day, Tang Ni braces his aching back. When it comes to this sort of thing, the boss really is the best.
He also learns a lesson: flirting feels good in the moment, but afterward you'll need a wall to lean on.
