After the succubus became a fake young master that everyone disliked - Chapter 23
Mu Jingshan: “What kind of company would give its employees such luxurious accommodation?”
Sitting on the sofa, Chi Jing leisurely held the remote control, selecting films.
Hearing Mu Jingshan’s question, he shrugged. “Isn’t this place nice?”
Mu Jingshan: “It’s exactly because it’s too nice!!!”
Chi Jing understood. “You’re saying they might have ulterior motives?”
His straightforwardness made Mu Jingshan somewhat embarrassed.
“I... didn’t mean it that way. What I’m saying is, you might want to be a bit cautious—”
“But I’m so good-looking. If he likes me, it’s only natural.”
Mu Jingshan gaped in surprise, while Chi Jing continued to relax on the sofa.
“You know?”
“Know what?”
“That Jiang Yucheng might be trying to use you.”
“Use me?” Chi Jing frowned in confusion, then set down the remote and started searching for the term on his phone.
Mu Jingshan hurriedly snatched his phone away. “How can you be so clueless? It means he might find you attractive and want to, you know...”
Feeling embarrassed, he didn’t say the explicit word.
But Chi Jing understood now.
He raised his eyebrow with an implied meaning: “Oh, I see.”
Mu Jingshan: “You didn’t consider this possibility?”
“No,” Chi Jing said, “it’s not a big deal.”
Mu Jingshan: “Huh???”
Chi Jing: “He’s good-looking, and of course, it’s acceptable for me to sleep with him.”
His statement was so serious that Mu Jingshan nearly thought he misheard.
He stared at him in astonishment. “What did you say?”
“If you have hearing problems, go to the hospital,” Chi Jing said, pulling his gaze from him, and not bothering to find a film, went upstairs.
His belongings were all placed in the master bedroom, the room he had set his eyes on immediately.
In the southeast corner, the view outside the window featured unknown flowering trees in the community’s green space, which dropped white petals all over the ground with the wind.
The room’s aesthetics fit his taste perfectly, so he immediately decided to sleep in this room.
Mu Jingshan was left alone in the living room, unsure whether to reflect on his hearing or rethink his outdated mindset.
How could he not keep up with Chi Jing’s thoughts?
The next day was another sunny day.
Chi Jing went downstairs in slippers to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, he saw a pair of panda eyes.
“Did you go robbing last night?” Looking at his agent with dark circles under his eyes, he was puzzled.
Mu Jingshan angrily shoved a cat bag containing three cats into his arms.
Chi Jing immediately turned around to play with the cats.
Mu Jingshan, even more furious, carried the cat litter box, cat food, and other items inside.
Although Chi Jing had just moved in, the house was well-furnished and didn’t feel empty.
It was clear that preparations had been made in advance.
He paused his actions for a moment, putting down the cat litter box and other items, and began to seriously advise Chi Jing.
“Chi Jing, I have something to say.”
Chi Jing opened the cat bag, took out the three-color cat, and then placed another kitten on the floor. Watching them explore the new environment without fear, he casually nodded.
“Go ahead, I’m listening.”
Mu Jingshan cleared his throat. “You know, the entertainment industry involves a lot of transactional relationships.”
“But those transactions aren’t beneficial for long-term development...”
“Wait.” Chi Jing, who had been playing with a cat toy, finally understood his concerns from his indirect words.
“Are you worried that I might sell my body for benefits?” He looked incredulously at him.
[Chi Jing: Have you considered that maybe your companies discussed this and decided to announce on the same day? This way, fans argue without costing a penny and easily trend on social media.]
[Chi Jing: Summary concluded, meeting adjourned!]
He enjoyed the game, and neither Ou’er Bai nor Lou Yiwen were genuinely arguing.
Seeing he was enjoying the spectacle, they turned their attention to him.
He quickly redirected the attention to the CP fans of Shen Yixing and An Boqing, sharing it in the group chat.
Soon, the three began to enthusiastically ship the couple.
While Chi Jing slept peacefully, Mu Jingshan and Longhuang Entertainment were uneasy, and Tang Shen, who received his information, was even more restless.
In a hotel presidential suite, Chen Guangji placed the printed information he had painstakingly collected in front of him.
“Didn’t expect that the fake heir situation would occur in real life,” he said, his pink hair shaking slightly as he spoke.
“But with such parents, it’s better not to be biological. Less brainwashing through blood ties.”
Tang Shen frowned as he reviewed all the information. “Not biological?”
“Yes,” Chen Guangji nodded, “and strangely, it seems like his personality has changed a lot recently. No wonder I didn’t recognize him when I first met him.”
The information included a few photos of Chi Jing from high school and college.
Chen Guangji: “He seems to have become more attractive. His features haven’t changed, but he looks much better now.”
Tang Shen flipped through the photos several times, his speculations constantly rising and being dismissed.
“Why are you suddenly interested in him?”
Tang Shen rubbed his brow. “It’s nothing. He just resembles someone I know.”
“Well, he looks a bit like you, boss.” Chen Guangji didn’t know about Tang Shen’s family matters, but he thought Chi Jing and Tang Shen had some resemblance.
Tang Shen was momentarily dazed by this comment.
According to his father, his younger brother should have recently entered this world. However, Chi Jing had a complete 22-year life history.
He wasn’t sure if his father’s magic would have any bugs. Given his dad’s absent-minded nature, anything was possible.
“Alright.” He collected the information without showing any emotion. “Are you busy with anything else?”
“Not at all. I’m going to a bar party tonight,” Chen Guangji stood up. “I’m leaving now, boss. Call me if you need anything.”
“Okay.”
After seeing Chen Guangji off, Tang Shen dialed a number to Country F.
But the call was not answered by Chi Yu.
A low, hoarse voice answered, which belonged to Tang Zhengqing.
“What’s up?”
“Dad,” he asked directly, “is Dad with you?”
Tang Zhengqing didn’t answer immediately. On the other end of the phone, there were some rustling noises and the sounds of affectionate conversation between two people.
After a while, the voice of Chi Yu came through.
“How can I help you, Shen?”
Tang Shen switched hands to hold the phone. “Dad, are you sure my younger brother arrived in the human world recently?”
“Um.” Chi Yu thought for a moment and said, “He should have, but it’s possible he came earlier or later. This is my first time using such a forbidden spell.”
“...” Tang Shen took a deep breath. “Dad, I’ll send you some information. Please review it.”
Chi Yu responded casually, “Alright.”
When the call ended, Tang Shen heard his father’s low voice murmuring about him.
“Why must you call so early in the morning with these things?”
“It’s about Jing.”
“What did he say?”
“Just some information, don’t hold it so tightly. I’ll take a look...”
The latter part of the conversation was unclear, but he was accustomed to his fathers interactions and was not surprised.
He sent the document photos, starting with Chi Jing’s life photos, followed by the textual information.
Before all the photos were uploaded, Chi Yu’s call appeared on the screen.
Tang Shen’s eyelid twitched as he had a hunch.
When he answered the call, he heard his surprised voice.
“You found Jing?”
