Who Are You Looking Down On?

Xia Zhi turned to look and saw the "frail boy who couldn't take care of himself" looking down at her. He hadn't dried his hair properly, and water dripped onto her phone, startling her into hastily moving it away.

"What are you doing?"

He had given her a fright.

Song Ye slowly crouched down to meet Xia Zhi's eyes. The corners of his lips lifted slightly in an exceptionally meek smile.

"I can serve you too, at no extra charge."

!!

Xia Zhi's eyes widened. What was going on?

She felt that this "serving" probably wasn't what she understood it to mean. After all, a bottom probably wasn't capable of that sort of thing, right?

"You mean... giving me a massage, rubbing my feet, things like that?"

"If that's what you want, I can do that too. I'm pretty good with my hands."

That abruptly reminded Xia Zhi of someone giving her a massage that night. It had felt so good. She wondered whether this little bottom might be even better.

No, no.

Xia Zhi quickly snapped out of it. This was a gift she had bought for the villain. If she wore the little bottom out now, he wouldn't have any strength left to serve the villain later.

"Thank you, but no."

Seeing that Song Ye hadn't put on the clothes she had given him, Xia Zhi guessed he probably didn't like them and didn't insist.

"Go wait on the bed."

"My boss should be here soon."

Just as she spoke, there was a knock at the door.

Xia Zhi hurriedly urged Song Ye to lie down on the bed before getting up to answer the door. Sure enough, the villain stood outside, with a hotel room-service cart behind him, laden with delicacies, flowers, and red wine.

Xia Zhi hadn't expected the villain and the candlelit dinner to arrive at the same time.

This was simply perfect.

"Come on in. Sorry for the trouble, but please set everything on that table," Xia Zhi happily told the room-service attendant.

Seeing how prettily Xia Zhi had dressed today, and that she had specially ordered a candlelit dinner, Lu Heng thought she still hadn't given up on seducing him. She was trying something new.

To be honest, he was rather looking forward to her performance tonight.

Perhaps, just perhaps, if she pleased him... he would let her have her wish.

"Honey, hurry up and take a shower."

Xia Zhi gazed at the villain with sparkling eyes.

"I have a huge surprise for you."

But Lu Heng was a little hungry. "Let's eat first."

??

Even if he was going to eat, he should be eating with the little bottom.

Feeling that it really wasn't appropriate for her to spoil such a lovely evening, Xia Zhi hurriedly urged Lu Heng to take a shower.

Lu Heng found it a little amusing as Xia Zhi pushed him along. "Are you that impatient? I haven't promised you anything."

Xia Zhi wasn't paying attention to what the villain said. She was only in a hurry to push him into the bathroom, then ran to the bed to give Song Ye some quiet instructions.

"Little Song, there's been a change of plans. The candlelit dinner arrived early. Go sit at the table and wait for him."

"I'm leaving now. Have a lovely evening together."

Just as Xia Zhi was about to leave, she suddenly remembered something and bent down again.

"Oh, right, add me on WeChat."

With that, she grabbed Song Ye's phone without waiting for a response and added herself on WeChat.

"If you serve him well, I'll send you a big cash gift."

"Go on, do your best."

Having finished her instructions, Xia Zhi hunched over and prepared to sneak out.

But the boy caught her wrist. With the curtains drawn and the lights off, his delicate features were indistinct in the darkness, and his expression was even harder to make out.

"Since you're so rich, how about I serve you?"

Huh?

Why was this kid still thinking about earning money on the side?

He had no idea how wealthy a patron he was about to land.

"Little Song, listen to me. All my money comes from my boss. He's much, much richer than I am. Keep him happy, and you'll have more money than you can spend."

"All right, that's enough from me. Hurry up and get ready."

"Oh, and that oil and everything is in the drawer. Don't forget."

Xia Zhi freed herself from the boy's grasp and hastily made her escape. The moment she left the hotel, she called Ji Qinghe to ask her out for dinner.

"You're eating already? Where, where?"

"Send me your location. I'll be right there."

It was a Hong Kong-style café. Xia Zhi had only just sat down when Lu Heng called. His voice was as cool and detached as ever.

"Where are you?"

Not noticing anything amiss, Xia Zhi told him where she was while eagerly asking for details. "Well? Well? Did you get the gift I prepared for you?"

"Don't you just love it?"

"His skin is so soft. Even as a woman, I'm jealous."

Xia Zhi glanced at her watch. Only twenty minutes had passed. Surely the villain couldn't have finished so quickly?

That would be far too little stamina.

As a man capable of going toe-to-toe with the male lead, the villain ought to excel in every respect, shouldn't he?

He must have taken a moment out of his busy evening to thank her. Xia Zhi quickly said, "Honey, there's no need to thank me. Just remember how good I am to you. You have to believe that I'll always be on your side."

Lu Heng's voice came through gritted teeth. "Where are you right now?"

Xia Zhi smiled. "Having dinner with Qinghe."

"Where?"

Xia Zhi looked around. "Near Great World, at a Hong Kong-style café. I don't know what it's called."

Ji Qinghe supplied the name of the restaurant. Xia Zhi didn't know whether the man on the other end had heard, but she felt she really shouldn't interrupt their time alone together.

"Honey, have fun, you two. Don't come home tonight."

She really was so, so, so generous.

Xia Zhi felt almost moved to tears by her own kindness. The villain's affection for her must be skyrocketing right now.

On the other end, Lu Heng stared at the disconnected call, so furious that he nearly smashed his phone on the spot.

"Get out!"

He stared coldly at the boy sitting stark naked at the dining table.

Song Ye was shocked too. This distinguished-looking man wasn't that woman's boss, but her husband?

She had actually found a bed partner for her own husband?

Was there something wrong with her head?

But she was so beautiful and seemed so lively and mischievous that she didn't look mentally unsound at all. The only possibilities were that she didn't love her husband, or her husband really did like men.

Song Ye slowly stood up. Feeling that leaving just like this would go against his professional ethics, he tried to smile.

"Sir, that lady paid me to serve you. I can't just leave."

The sight of Song Ye smiling at him gave Lu Heng goosebumps all over. He backed away two steps.

"Fine. If you won't leave, I will."

With that, he turned and headed for the door, only for Song Ye to rush ahead of him and slam into it.

Bam!

There was an enormous crash.

Song Ye's shoulder went numb with pain. "Sir, that lady only paid a deposit. If I don't provide good service, she won't pay the balance."

Lu Heng sneered. "How much did she pay you?"

"One hundred thousand."

Lu Heng was so angry his nose nearly twisted out of shape. Even if that woman was going to find someone for him, she shouldn't have picked someone this cheap. Who was she looking down on?

Absolutely infuriating.

"I'll give you two hundred thousand. Get as far away from me as you can."

Song Ye smiled. "Thank you, sir."

As the two women ate and chatted, a tall figure pushed open the door and strode in, radiating murderous fury, while Xia Zhi remained completely oblivious.

"Qinghe, Qinghe, I heard there are loads of hot young guys at the art academy. Is that true?"
