"You mean you want me to get information out of Huang Yinghua?" Shang Hong looked at Chai Yanyu with disbelief. "Since when did Mr. Chai become so nosy?"
His expression was one of pure amusement.
Chai Yanyu simply shot him a cold glare. "I never need to report my actions to you."
Seeing Chai Yanyu's reaction, Shang Hong shrugged helplessly. "Mr. Chai, I've told you many times, with that expression of yours, no woman will ever like you. I don't know how the person you're helping tolerates you."
Chai Yanyu didn't reply, his eyes growing colder.
"Even if you glare at me, I have to say it, isn't this for your own good?" Shang Hong said with a look of grievance.
Chai Yanyu stopped engaging him and instead said, "According to my investigation, Huang Yinghua will be at that gay bar again today. It's a good opportunity for you to get close to him."
"If people found out that I, the king of games, was doing this for you, they'd probably laugh themselves to death."
Although Shang Hong said this, he was already preparing to leave.
However, before leaving, he still said to Chai Yanyu, "Don't forget, you owe me a favor this time."
Chai Yanyu didn't answer him, but he already knew his answer.
In his eyes, there was probably no friend with a worse temper than Chai Yanyu. It was precisely because he liked this kind of personality that he had been friends with Chai Yanyu for so long.
When Shang Hong arrived at the bar, he immediately became the center of attention.
Perhaps this was the feeling of like-minded people. From the moment Shang Hong arrived, he seemed to exude an alluring aura.
Naturally, Huang Yinghua was also attracted to him.
Shang Hong subtly glanced at Huang Yinghua. Although he was here to find Huang Yinghua, he absolutely could not let Huang Yinghua realize his intention.
He had to make Huang Yinghua approach him.
Shang Hong casually found a seat. Soon, various people deliberately approached him to strike up a conversation, but he politely declined each one.
However, he kept looking at Huang Yinghua, his gaze subtly carrying a hint of seductiveness, as if playing hard to get, or perhaps just a casual glance.
This made Huang Yinghua's heart burn with an unnamable fire.
Shang Hong's lips curved upwards. He knew from Huang Yinghua's gaze that the big fish had taken the bait. He was just considering whether or not to approach him.
At this moment, he suddenly stood up, as if preparing to leave.
As expected, when Huang Yinghua saw this, he could no longer sit still and immediately walked towards Shang Hong.
"Excuse me, young man, you look unfamiliar. Is this your first time here?"
Shang Hong chuckled inwardly. This pick-up line was truly cliché.
"Yes, it is indeed my first time. I originally thought I would be returning empty-handed today, but I didn't expect..."
As Shang Hong spoke, he deliberately scanned Huang Yinghua with a rather suggestive gaze.
Huang Yinghua was captivated by this look and couldn't help but swallow. He had truly never encountered such a desirable person before.
Shang Hong was also direct. "Since you're interested, how about we find a hotel nearby?"
"Yes, yes." Huang Yinghua immediately agreed.
Then, he left with Huang Yinghua.
When Chai Yanyu heard the report from the person he had sent to observe the progress, he couldn't help but shake his head with a hint of helplessness. Shang Hong was probably the one who best understood how to use masculine charm to seduce men.
Upon arriving at the hotel, the two did not rush. Shang Hong took out a bottle of red wine.
"A drink?"
Huang Yinghua nodded. "Sure."
After that, Shang Hong used various excuses to get Huang Yinghua to drink. Huang Yinghua was already infatuated and didn't remember anything else, only remembering to drink whatever Shang Hong offered him.
Before long, Huang Yinghua began to feel dizzy and lost track of himself.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Shang Hong directly asked, "Mr. Huang, I actually knew about you before today. You're quite an important figure."
"An important figure? Am I that famous?" Huang Yinghua said with pride.
"Of course. Everyone knows now that you and the young master of the Zhan Corporation have this kind of relationship. It's truly glorious."
Huang Yinghua scoffed. "To be honest, I don't think there's anything glorious about it. You have no idea, because of that incident, I haven't had a moment's peace these past few days. Those reporters constantly find me, asking all sorts of questions. It's so annoying."
"Is that so?"
"Yes. If it weren't for that bit of money, I wouldn't have gotten into this trouble."
Hearing this, Shang Hong's lips curved. It seemed he had successfully steered the conversation.
"For money? What do you mean? Aren't you doing it willingly?"
"Of course not." Huang Yinghua denied it without hesitation. "I don't like to force others, and I have no interest in turning straight men gay. Zhan Yichen is a straight man with a wife. If it weren't for something, why would I get involved with him?"
Shang Hong smiled. "It seems you've had too much to drink. The news clearly reported that you two had an encounter, but now you say you don't like that kind of thing. It's quite contradictory."
"Bullshit! Nothing happened between us. It's all fake." Huang Yinghua said, "It's just that I prepared too thoroughly, so everyone thought we really had a relationship."
"So that's how it is." Shang Hong smiled meaningfully.
This Huang Yinghua was much easier to deal with than he had imagined. He never expected him to spill everything after just a few drinks.
When Chai Yanyu received the recording, everything was settled. Now, all he had to do was give this recording to Wei Yumeng, and this matter would likely be resolved.
Shang Hong walked over to Chai Yanyu with a glass of red wine and winked at him.
"Ayu, I'm really curious, who exactly is that woman, and what does she look like, that you, with your aloof personality, would help her so much? Why don't we meet sometime?"
Chai Yanyu instinctively distanced himself. "That's none of your business. You've done what you needed to do, and that's enough."
He then warned Shang Hong, "I forbid you from meeting her."
Shang Hong pouted. "Yes, yes, I'll listen to you. Only I can tolerate your foul temper."
Chai Yanyu looked at the voice recorder in his hand and then at the time, revealing a gentle expression in Shang Hong's eyes for the first time.
Shang Hong looked at him, took a big gulp of red wine, but said nothing, lowering his head as if lost in thought.
