The Temptation of Flesh

After going quiet for a few seconds, Ye Heng couldn't help but sigh, "I haven't seen him in such a long time. Is it wrong of me to want to catch up?"

Being stubborn as a bull, Fu Zhen said with no mercy, "You can catch up from there."

Seeing that he wouldn't budge as much as an inch, Ye Heng helplessly raised both of his hands no longer wanting to put up any fights.

His expression slowly became serious as he started to talk about his business in a flat tone, "Director Will's movie, I won't do it."

Ye Heng's firm tone left no room for negotiation. It was as if he came here just to notify Fu Zhen instead of asking for his consent.

Shit, I should not have come today!

Fu Yue who was the innocent bystander felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles.

Perhaps, due to those two being dominant Alphas Fu Yue found them particularly scary at this moment.

Even his big brother who normally looked amicable at this moment had a gloomy face he had never seen before.

Yet, facing his artist's straightforwardness, Fu Zhen didn't denounce him instead he asked in a low voice, "Your reason?"

As if unaware of his fury, Ye Heng casually put his hands into the coat's pockets as he shrugged his shoulders, "He told me to film the bed scenes without using the substitute."

After this sentence went out, the temperature in the room seemed to drop sharply. It could be seen that Fu Zhen's mood became even worse.

Oddly enough, Fu Yue had a feeling that his big brother was not directing his anger toward his artist but the director that was mentioned a while ago.

As expected, Fu Zhen coldly sneered, "Didn't the contract already state that there will be no intimate scenes? He dares to say this after leaking the news of the cast to the media?"

With these words, the atmosphere seemed to miraculously improve. Ye Heng's face likewise gradually restored its warmth.

He offhandedly said, "I guess he did not expect me to bring this matter to you directly. Not to mention, filming those scenes personally would garner a lot of attention from the public so the movie is bound to succeed."

"Did that fool think that I would choose profits over you?" Mockingly said Fu Zhen.

Ye Heng did not give him a reply. He merely grinned which indirectly agreed with his words.

Without waiting any longer, Fu Zhen swiftly took out his phone to make a call. As he waited for the other side to pick up, he faintly glanced in Ye Heng's direction, "I will deal with this matter. You go back to get some rest first."

Ye Heng was not an unreasonable person. Since he had nothing to do at the company anymore he did not find any excuses to stay behind to bother Fu Zhen during his work hours.

Turning to wave his hand at Fu Yue, Ye Heng bid him farewell, "Let's catch up another day, Xiao Yue."

Fu Yue gave a polite smile as he waved his hand back at him.

Watching as the tall man disappeared from the office with a smiling face, Fu Yue still couldn't believe that a fight almost broke out not long ago between those two guys.

Look like he is indeed his big brother's best friend.

In the meantime, Fu Zhen caught a glimpse of this scene. Yet, he had no time to shout at Ye Heng since Director Will just picked up the call.

Fu Zhen immediately vented his anger in English over the phone, "Since you are going to work like this, I will pull back the investment."

Fu Zhen didn't even wait for the other party's explanation. He ended the call right away before making another call to Secretary Ji, "Pull back the investment from Director Will's movie. Tell the PR team to prepare themselves as Ye Heng will not participate in his project and prepare for the lawsuit as he dares to violate the contract. Act fast before the news of Ye Heng dropping out leaks to the public."

After a series of orders went down Fu Zhen finally stopped and the room resumed its silence. He carelessly tossed his phone onto the desk and just happened to meet his little brother's curious face.

"What?"

Fu Yue frankly said, "I am surprised that you trust that person's words so much."

Even though it was short Fu Yue knew that his big brother was not a gullible person. So far, he always made sure to finish his tasks efficiently with no delay.

He was always well-prepared to make no room for errors. However, this merciless operation regarding Ye Heng's matter overturned his impression of big brother.

Without investigating properly, Fu Zhen got down to business right away without confirming the truth. Seeing that his big brother had this much trust in his friend kind of surprised Fu Yue.

Being asked this question, Fu Zhen was not surprised. Toward his amnesiac little brother, it indeed looked weird.

Fu Zhen contemplated a bit looking for an appropriate word to describe Ye Heng.

"You can think of him as a family member."

Did not expect to hear this kind of answer, Fu Yue asked in surprise, "He is that close to us?"

Nodding his head in return, Fu Zhen continued to explain, "We have been studying together since middle school until university. There was a period when he even lived in the same house as us."

Fu Yue did not ask why Ye Heng had to live in their house in the past. As an orphan himself, he already had a guess in his mind.

It was also rude to talk about someone else's story behind their back so he glossed over the matter with a light oh.

Seeing his lukewarm reaction, Fu Zhen suddenly dropped a question, "So, what do you think of him?"

Without even needing the time to think, Fu Yue answered, "He is seriously handsome."

The moment his words fell, Fu Zhen instantly scoffed, "Even though you lost your memory, you still say the same thing that you used to say about him."

Fu Yue gave him a big eye roll as he felt the situation was unjust to him, "It is a fact. What else can I say?"

Fu Zhen too gave him a big eye roll, "Well, are you going to have a crush on him again?"

"Of course, I am going to have–"

Feeling something was wrong Fu Yue put a brake on time. He incredulously looked dumbfounded at his big brother, "I–What?"

Fu Zhen boringly propped his cheek with his right hand, "Have. A. Crush. On. Him."

Realizing that he did not mishear, Fu Yue widened his eyes in shock as he pointed his index finger at himself and then toward the door, "Me to him?"

Fu Zhen looked at him as if he was stupid, "Otherwise?"

Fu Yue quickly defended himself, "I mean no matter how handsome he is, why should I have a crush on him?"

Fu Zhen felt that his little brother was speaking nonsense. He generously corrected, "Why shouldn't you, a Dominant O like a Dominant A like him?"

Wanting to prove his innocence, Fu Yue refuted with all his might, "Because career is love, career is life! I will not be enticed by the temptation of flesh!"

Fu Zhen looked at him skeptically.

"Are you sure that the temptation of flesh does not affect you?"

Fu Yue put on a dead serious face as he gave a hard nod.

Seeing his extreme reaction, Fu Zhen once again picked up his phone with his right hand while hooking his left index finger toward Fu Yue, "You come here and look at this."

Fu Yue did not know what he was going to do. Regardless, he silently braced himself to march in his big brother's direction full of fighting spirit.

The instant Fu Yue reached his desk, Fu Zhen immediately pointed his phone screen toward him which displayed a picture of someone that seemed to be secretly taken.

The moment his eyes landed on the picture Fu Yue was unable to pull his eyes away. Unknowingly, he even pushed his face closer to the phone.

Truth be told, it was not anything obscene or outrageous.

It was merely a picture of a man's side profile who wore a black jacket on top of his black turtleneck shirt with his back against a white wall.

His skin was incredibly pale but not unhealthy. After coming here, Fu Yue has never seen black hair yet so he even suspected that there was none in this strange world.

That's why it was fascinating seeing someone with hair as black as the night sky appeared before his eyes. What's more, his whole outfits were black resulting in a stark contrast with his pale skin elevating his beauty even more.

His light blue eye was half-lowered looking a bit languid and sluggish radiating a lazy but charming aura. Add to his sharp jawline, high nose bridge as well as slightly parted thin red lips with a beauty mark right next to the corner of his lower lip, his whole body oozed a sense of sexiness that caused Fu Yue to unintentionally gulp down his saliva.

Completely forgot all those bullshit he spouted not long ago.
