My crush wants to be my sugar daddy.

Chapter 208 IF Route - Bro, I'm heartbroken.

Irresponsible IF Side Story - 11

Before you can successfully woo your boyfriend, there are two things you must do. Only after doing these two things will you achieve twice the result with half the effort. First, you must experience heartbreak.

{Your previous hints were very well done, but you made a serious mistake: you shouldn't have introduced yourself to someone you like. He already treated you like a younger brother and never really considered you. Now that you have someone else you like, even if he wanted to consider you, he wouldn't be able to make a move, right? So, you need to experience heartbreak first.}

Secondly, you need to make him realize that your brother can be a boyfriend. I'm not bragging, but based on my vast experience with men, with your looks and connections, unless someone's blind, they can't possibly refuse you. So, the most urgent thing is to change your brother's mindset.

{Little Yuanzi, believe me, as long as you do these two things, you won't even need to fish; just a slight hook and your brother will be head over heels for you.}

Chi Yuan stared at the WeChat message Huang Kai sent, thought it over and over, and finally made up his mind to send a WeChat message to his brother: {Brother, I've broken up with my boyfriend.}

In a private room at a restaurant in City S, Jiang Haochen and Xie Lingzhou were having dinner.

The two sat facing each other, chatting about movies, filming, and hobbies; the atmosphere was quite lively.

"Try this fish soup, it tastes really good." Jiang Haochen recommended the pot of fish soup that had just been served. "I came here once with Director Yang last time, and I still remember it vividly. I'm thinking I must come again if I have the chance."

Xie Lingzhou smiled and agreed, then took a clean small bowl and began to ladle soup. After finishing, he placed the bowl next to Jiang Haochen, then naturally took the empty bowl from Jiang Haochen's side and ladled a bowl for himself.

Jiang Haochen paused, the warmth of the other person's body still lingering on the back of his hand from their accidental touch. He looked up blankly and met Xie Lingzhou's gentle and handsome face: "The soup is indeed very delicious. I think I will remember this restaurant and come again next time."

Jiang Haochen gave a blank "hmm" and then lowered his head to drink the soup, but for some reason, the soup didn't taste like anything when it entered his mouth.

"When I came here, I heard that Teacher Jiang has been on vacation for the past few days?" Xie Lingzhou asked with a smile.

Jiang Haochen nodded: "My manager had a change of heart and gave me three days off."

Actually, we were afraid he would go crazy, but even so, we only left him there for three days.

Xie Lingzhou: "Does Professor Jiang reside in City B?"

Jiang Haochen: "Yes."

Xie Lingzhou: "If you have three days off, are you planning to go on a trip, or stay home?"

Jiang Haochen: "With only three days, I can't go far, and I don't dare go to nearby places. I guess I'll just stay at home."

Xie Lingzhou laughed: "That's the downside of our line of work; we can't go to crowded places. When I'm on vacation, I mostly stay home reading books and playing games."

Jiang Haochen: "Really? Then we're quite alike."

Xie Lingzhou unconsciously stirred the fish soup with a spoon: "Is Teacher Jiang going back to City B tonight?"

Jiang Haochen met Xie Lingzhou's shimmering eyes, and the words he was about to say suddenly caught in his throat.

Jiang Haochen seemed to have just remembered his original intention for inviting Xie Lingzhou to dinner: he wanted to pursue Xie Lingzhou and have a casual relationship with her. And now, it seemed he had achieved his goal.

Xie Lingzhou asked him if he was leaving that night. He only needed to answer no, and then he could make other arrangements for the night.

The hotel was right next door, and they had just finished dinner. All they needed to do was bring a bottle of wine, and it would be a perfect night.

The two words were almost on the tip of his tongue, but Jiang Haochen couldn't utter them. His fingers trembled, as if a voice was asking him a question.

Is the person in front of you really the one you like?

Xie Lingzhou was undoubtedly handsome; both his looks and personality were exactly his type. He had invited Xie Lingzhou to dinner to try and take their relationship further, but until just now—no, even now—he hadn't had any romantic thoughts about him.

Thinking about the night, the hotel, and the debauchery, Chi Yuan's face actually flashed through his mind.

Jiang Haochen understands his own personality very well. Once he makes a choice, he will definitely take full responsibility. He only needs to choose Xie Lingzhou and make him his boyfriend, and those terrible thoughts about Chi Yuan will disappear.

He didn't want to hurt Chi Yuan...

Jiang Haochen's eye muscles twitched involuntarily due to intense thoughts.

Jiang Haochen had been silent for too long, and Xie Lingzhou sensed something was wrong. Just as he was about to say something, his phone suddenly rang, breaking the awkward silence.

"Sorry, let me check my messages." Jiang Haochen quickly picked up his phone and opened the messages.

Chi Yuan: {Brother, I've been dumped.}

"Bang!"

Jiang Haochen suddenly stood up from his chair, the rough movement causing the chair to slam against the wall with a loud bang.

Xie Lingzhou was startled: "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Jiang Haochen's eyes held a strange glint as he packed his things and apologized to Xie Lingzhou, "Sorry, I have an urgent matter and must return to City B now."

After saying that, Jiang Haochen ran out quickly before Xie Lingzhou could speak.

Jiang Haochen left, and Xie Lingzhou, feeling bored eating alone, decided to grab his things and leave as well. But before he could finish packing, Jiang Haochen returned.

Xie Lingzhou: "Did you forget something?"

Jiang Haochen shook his head and looked at Xie Lingzhou, apologizing again: "I'm sorry."

Xie Lingzhou smiled and said, "You already apologized."

Jiang Haochen shook his head: "It's different. Anyway, I'm sorry."

After saying that, Jiang Haochen didn't linger. He turned around and ran away again, this time without looking back.

Xie Lingzhou stood there stunned for a while before he came to his senses. This apology was Jiang Haochen's reply to him.

After a while, Xie Lingzhou suddenly chuckled softly, his eyes showing both disappointment and relief. He picked up his things, put on his mask, and left the restaurant.

On the other side, Jiang Haochen quickly walked out of the restaurant while calling Chi Yuan.

"Chi Yuan?" Jiang Haochen asked impatiently as the call connected, "Are you alright?"

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, then Chi Yuan's voice came through, soft, aggrieved, and slightly nasal: "Brother, I've broken up with my boyfriend. The person I like doesn't like me back."

Hearing his younger brother crying, Jiang Haochen was clearly heartbroken, but he couldn't help but smile and say, "It's okay, it will all pass."

Chi Yuan: "Brother, I'm so sad."

Jiang Haochen: "Don't be sad, wait for me at home, I'll be back soon."

Chi Yuan: "Mm."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Haochen suddenly felt a soreness in his mouth. He pressed his hand against the corner of his mouth to relieve it.
