Making a Mistake

Su Yan continued to frown. This whole story just didn't make any sense. Even now that it had ended, he didn't really know what had happened and what that so-called 'end' was supposed to mean. Especially …

He sat up and looked at Nie Chang questioningly. "So who was the male lead now?"

Nie Chang coughed. So that was what his little darling was interested in? "Well, I guess it should be Yuan Jing."

"But why? Didn't he sleep with Kang Lei?"

"Yes but that was because of the plant."

Su Yan frowned even more. "Because of the plant? But why? Wasn't it just some new plant? Why would that make him sleep with Kang Lei? And if he slept with him, why wouldn't he get together with him?"

Nie Chang rubbed his neck. How was he supposed to explain this now? "Well … Sometimes things aren't that straightforward. Sometimes people make mistakes. I guess you could say that Kang Lei was Nangong Min's mistake."

"But this doesn't make any sense! Making a mistake and sleeping with someone you don't like isn't the same thing at all!"

Nie Chang slipped the phone back into Su Yan's pocket and smiled wryly. The system had really chosen a great novel as its material. If Su Yan was a little more open-minded or maybe just knew a bit more about sex, he could have learned a lot from it. Unfortunately … his own experiences were rather shallow.

Nie Chang narrowed his eyes. Wait a moment! Hadn't there been that one mistake that fit this situation rather well?

He reached out and tugged at Su Yan's sleeve. "Darling, I do remember a certain someone going to a bar once just because his system said so."

"Ah? I did. But what does that have to do with this stupid story?"

Nie Chang's smile got even unhappier. "Do you not remember some guy sitting down next to you and how you amicably chatted with him until he drugged you and nearly carted you off to some hotel? So do you want to repeat that sentence about making mistakes and sleeping with someone you don't like?"

Su Yan tensed. "That … You can't compare that at all! I didn't even know that guy!"

"Which makes it even worse. You didn't pay attention and someone spiked your drink. That shouldn't happen."

"But —"

"And Nangong Min got close to a plant he didn't know and thus ended up sleeping with someone. Actually, you were just more lucky than him that I got there in time while Yuan Jing was a few minutes too late. Things already happened to him."

"That …" Su Yan hurriedly shook his head. "Not the same thing at all! That was just a plant!"

"Yes. But it obviously worked exactly the same way as drugs. And what Kang Lei did to him definitely wasn't what a responsible friend would have done. Or do you want to say you wouldn't have had a problem if I slept with you when you were drugged?"

Su Yan tensed even more and looked away. What kind of stupid question was that? He couldn't even really remember that night! He just had some memories of how he went to that bar and talked with someone and the next thing he knew was how he woke up in Nie Chang's bed with his head hurting like hell.

He pursed his lips. "You're mean! Why are you bringing this up? I just wanted to know who the male lead was. No need to get so grumpy."

Nie Chang sighed. How come he was the bad guy now? Well, he wasn't able to be angry at Su Yan anyway so he should just apologize. He leaned forward, hugged Su Yan around the waist and pulled him into his arms. "Alright, alright. That was an old story. I shouldn't have brought it up. It wasn't your fault back then. It was all that stupid guy's fault."

"Mn!" Su Yan nodded eagerly. "Right! And the system's fault! How could it send me to that bar if there was such a guy around? Drugging people, hmph. Someone should have gone to the police and reported him."

"His father is rich."

"Hmph. My father is also rich."

Nie Chang laughed but hurriedly masked it with a cough. So now Mister Su was suddenly a good father again that could be pulled out to compare with other rich people? He would certainly be overjoyed if he heard.

"Mn, maybe I should still go and tell him. He could pay someone to break that guy's leg or something."

Nie Chang brushed through his little darling's hair and kissed his cheek. "It's better not to do that. His family is better off than yours."

"Ah?" Su Yan looked up, utter disbelief written in his face as if he couldn't believe that there was anyone from their generation in Shanghai who could be better off than him.

"Mn. But you could ask your boyfriend. Even if I don't make his family's company collapse, I could still get into some account of his and let you vent some anger."

Nie Chang had just wanted to joke a bit to lighten the mood but Su Yan immediately perked up and his eyes sparkled with a special glint that made the alarm bells in Nie Chang's head ring constantly. Oh-oh. Don't tell him he had just opened Pandora's box.

"Could you really?"

"Uh … If I pretend not to, will I get out of this?"

Su Yan happily clutched Nie Chang's shirt and leaned closer. "How about you post some embarrassing message from one of his accounts or maybe do something that will make his girlfriend break up with him or something? Wouldn't that be getting back at him?" He blinked expectantly, making it very hard for Nie Chang to deny him.

"Well … I doubt he has a girlfriend."

Su Yan's expression blanked. "Oh. You're right. Considering he wanted to drug me, he definitely doesn't have a girlfriend." He pondered a moment before perking up again. "Then how about making his boyfriend break up with him? That should also work, right?!"

Nie Chang's lips twitched. Alright, this really was his own fault this time. Not that he himself didn't want to get back at that Ling Dong Hai. Mn, hacking his account and posting an embarrassing message shouldn't be too much …
