Seductive

[I love this, I love this. Yu Lin sings so beautifully.]

[The atmosphere of everyone singing together is so great. This is going to be another iconic scene.]

[Li Yu's face is so red. What's going on? Is he embarrassed?]

[The director is so good at this, hahaha. How is this any different from Yu Lin publicly singing a confession?]

[So shippable, I love shipping. This certified shipper is officially on duty.]

[Look how excited Yu Lin is. Why does it feel like letting him sing made him completely satisfied?]

[Are we sure this isn't Li Yu's dare? Why do I feel like Li Yu has been holding back laughter the whole time?]

[Hahahahaha, oh my god, I also feel like Li Yu really wants to laugh.]

The whole song lasted three minutes and thirty-four seconds, yet Li Yu felt as though half a century had passed.

Although he had kept his eyes on Yu Lin, his gaze was vacant. The entire time, he had been thinking: Don't laugh, don't laugh, I can't laugh. If I laugh, Yu Lin will laugh too...

By the end of the song, Li Yu looked as though Zhong Kui had hooked away his soul. He was completely dazed.

Yu Lin reached out and gently patted Li Yu's face, and only then did Li Yu come back to his senses.

"Little Yu, what's wrong? Say something..."

Yu Lin thought Li Yu was too shy to speak, when in fact, Li Yu's soul had already left his body some time ago.

"Hehe, I sang well, right? I didn't get stuck on the lyrics once!"

"Good... Mm... You sang pretty well..."

Li Yu nodded blankly and reached up to touch his burning cheeks.

But when he looked up, he met Chi Yan's cold gaze. It was like being doused with a bucket of cold water, and he instantly sobered up.

Why did he suddenly feel so guilty?

Li Yu lowered his eyes. When he looked at Chi Yan again, Chi Yan was no longer looking his way.

From earlier until now, sour bubbles had been rising nonstop in Chi Yan's heart.

He had just wanted to pull Li Yu straight into his arms, but obviously, he couldn't. They were filming a show, and besides, Li Yu would not understand his actions.

He felt like a resentful husband now, the kind who found everyone unpleasant to look at.

Later, he had to suggest to Zhong Su that they stop designing so many overly interactive game segments...

Even if they did design them, they should only be for when he and Little Fish were together!

"Director, that counts as completing my dare, right? I really didn't laugh just now," Yu Lin said.

Li Yu: Yes, you didn't laugh. Meanwhile, I was holding back laughter so hard I wanted to die.

"Um... So what's my dare?" Li Yu adjusted his emotions and asked.

"You dance. Can you do that?" Zhong Su asked.

"If it isn't too difficult, I should be able to."

Li Yu had taken dance as an elective in college, so he did know some basic jazz. What he did not say was that he had also studied it for a while at the Transmigration Bureau.

"Then dance a segment of tonight, which was really popular online before. It's not long, and you can learn it on the spot. There's a dance tutorial here too."

After Zhong Su finished speaking, a staff member handed Li Yu a phone and had him learn from the tutorial.

"Sure."

Li Yu accepted the phone despite himself, but Xie Jingming, beside him, said, "I can teach you. I learned it recently."

Xie Jingming had debuted as an idol, and he could dance most of the popular online dances. It was also convenient for showing them off when he went on programs or attended events.

"Then thank you."

Li Yu gave Xie Jingming a grateful look. Though he could learn from the video tutorial, having someone beside him to watch and guide him would definitely make it faster.

"But... Director, could you find me a private room to practice in? I'd feel pretty embarrassed practicing out here," Li Yu said.

Although the production crew had booked out the entire seafood restaurant for the evening, Li Yu did not yet have the courage to practice dancing in front of so many people. Just thinking about that scene felt a little too absurd.

"There are private rooms, down that row in the hallway," the restaurant owner hurried over and said when he heard Li Yu.

Li Yu nodded and entered a private room with Xie Jingming, phone in hand. Their cameramen followed them inside as well, while the six people outside naturally did not sit idle and chatted at their table.

"Here, lift your hand, thrust your hips, thrust them to this position..."

At first, Xie Jingming stood to the side and explained. When he saw that Li Yu's movements were not quite right, he directly stepped in.

He held Li Yu by the hips and said, "Use this spot to exert force. Do you get it now?"

Li Yu silently nodded, carefully watching the video tutorial on the phone and memorizing the movements. Then he danced through them roughly once, while Xie Jingming helped him refine the details.

"Move your heels and toes with the beat... For this chest roll, listen to the melody and do it twice... Lift your leg... Hit the beat!"

Xie Jingming was more like a strict teacher at this moment. Li Yu had never seen this side of him before.

Still, Li Yu was a quick learner and could memorize the movements rapidly. With Xie Jingming guiding him at the side, he was able to dance the routine proficiently in less than twenty minutes.

"How was that one?"

Li Yu danced it for Xie Jingming once more. Xie Jingming nodded and said, "More or less. But you don't need to drop so hard when you kneel down. You'll hurt your knees."

"Thank you," Li Yu said.

Xie Jingming shook his head. "Let's head out. Everyone's probably getting impatient."

When Li Yu left the private room, he walked ahead of Xie Jingming. Xie Jingming stared at Li Yu's waist from behind, the image of Li Yu dancing replaying in his mind.

That waist... Damn.

Xie Jingming could already imagine how crazy someone would go after seeing Li Yu dance.

If he were a top, he probably would not be able to walk after seeing Li Yu either. Unfortunately, he was the wrong type.

When Shu Menglan saw Li Yu come out, she excitedly said, "You're finally out! I can't wait to see Little Yu dance!"

Normally, Yu Lin was the most lively one, but now he had shrunk off to the side without saying a word. Little Yu dancing... Just imagining that scene was fatal enough.

"The lighting in our restaurant can change colors too~ I'll switch it to purplish red for you."

After the restaurant owner spoke, the previously bright space instantly darkened. The purplish-red lights above everyone's heads made the entire atmosphere turn ambiguous.

The staff cleared an open space for Li Yu. Li Yu made a gesture to show that he was ready, and the Bluetooth speaker started up again.

As soon as the song began, Li Yu turned his head to the side, tapped his shoulder with his right hand, stepped forward, raised his hand, and thrust his hips.

The hip thrust was slightly exaggerated. When Li Yu lifted his hand, it pulled up the hem of his shirt and exposed his taut, narrow abdomen. He moved to the rhythm of the music, his long fingers resting at his Adam's apple like a hook that drew everyone's gaze.

Once Shu Menglan came back to her senses, she took the lead in cheering. The others started shouting too. Anyone who walked in without knowing better would think they had entered a host club.

Then Li Yu knelt on the floor, his fingers sliding from his abdomen to his chest, making the people beside him wish they could become that hand.

Li Yu then rose to his feet and did a chest roll. His waist twisted with such flexibility, like a soft yet venomous snake flicking its tongue as it coiled straight into everyone's hearts, thrilling them until they could barely breathe.

The final pose, with his hands clasped over his head as he thrust his hips, was even more suggestive. Everyone could only think that Li Yu knew far too well how to move. His supple waist swayed before their eyes, carrying a handsome sensuality that seeped into the bones.

Li Yu controlled his expression perfectly throughout the dance. He looked at them as though gazing at a lover, gentle as water yet carrying a hint of seduction, like some silent invitation.

When the BGM ended, Li Yu stood still and smiled at everyone, as though the person who had just bewitched their hearts had suddenly vanished.

Yu Lin was completely stunned. His mouth hung slightly open, and even at the end, he could not close it.

The others were not much better. If gazes had heat, Li Yu would have turned into grilled fish by now.
