A Relationship of Money

Expected to start in November

A stray kitten bottom x a gentle, guiding top. Probably a story about someone finding a stray kitten, broken in body and spirit, then patching him up and raising him into a confident beauty.

During his junior year of college, Chen Zhuo's mother was diagnosed with cancer.

To raise the money for her surgery, Chen Zhuo went to work as a drinks promoter at the most luxurious private club in town.

Chen Zhuo was handsome, and on his very first trial shift, a customer asked him to come to their table.

The room was filled with laughter and chatter. Chen Zhuo's face was pale, and his fingers were intertwined. Just as he was about to take the glass, a hand settled on his left shoulder. Someone had come to stand beside him.

"He's not selling drinks tonight."

The person turned around and took Chen Zhuo's cold, trembling fingers in his hand. "Come with me."

Chen Zhuo thought that Mr. Dai was rich and powerful, and that paying for him was much like buying a useful decorative ornament.

An ornament didn't have to say anything or pledge its loyalty. It only had to fulfill its duties in bed.

Although Mr. Dai had a hidden ailment and Chen Zhuo needed almost half a week to recover after each time, Mr. Dai was also very generous.

A newly built villa back in his hometown, a promising job, and the status of his boyfriend in public: Chen Zhuo never had to ask for any of it.

Someone advised Chen Zhuo, "While he still likes you, you should hurry up and marry him."

He only shook his head.

His sugar daddy was paying for a service, not his heart.

He and Mr. Dai had never belonged to the same world in the first place.

In their sixth year together, news spread that Mr. Dai was getting married.

Chen Zhuo knew it was time for him to leave.

He didn't have much stuff, and packed only one small suitcase. It was just as light as the day he had arrived.

But when he opened the door, Mr. Dai was standing in the hallway.

Chen Zhuo lowered his eyes slightly. "Thank you for taking care of me all these years, Mr. Dai. I have to go."

He didn't get the expected "Okay." Instead, a figure pinned him against the door.

In the dim room, the faint light gleamed off the ring in the box.

Chen Zhuo looked up in shock and met the other's deep, gentle eyes.

"I haven't said we're breaking up."

Mr. Dai slipped the ring onto his ring finger. "Chen Zhuo, marry me."
