An Impure Casino 28

“…How did you come to think that, Xie Wei?”

“Well… you helped me practice Cantonese, saved me in Hong Kong, and bought me food and drinks.”

He certainly had been quite good to Xie Wei. Ray Jun rubbed his chin and replied.

“So you thought I liked you because of that?”

“Yeah. …And it’s fun being with you too…”

In fact, he didn’t remember creating such fun times, so if anything, didn’t it seem like Xie Wei was the one who liked him?

Ray Jun asked in an even sweeter voice than when he’d offered the wine.

“Then, what would you do if I said I liked you?”

“Uh…”

Xie Wei, who had been answering well until now, frowned for the first time. After quite a long consideration, he mumbled hesitantly.

“I don’t know… It would be super awkward, how would we share a room…”

“And?”

“The other employees shouldn’t know…”

“…Is that it?”

His pleasant mood cooled instantly. Ray Jun crossed his arms and cast a cold gaze.

“I’m saying I like you, and the only thing you think is that it would be troublesome?”

This was separate from whether he actually liked Xie Wei or not. Ray Jun’s tower-high pride couldn’t stand watching someone he thought he could manipulate pull away.

“No, but what else can I do…”

“What do you mean, what else?”

“I… like girls normally…”

Drunk Xie Wei’s pronunciation slurred. Even though he was the one who’d force-fed him alcohol, Ray Jun wanted to shake his shoulders to make him spit out an answer.

“So what are you trying to say? You can’t sleep with a man?”

“Mm.”

“Mm? Is that a yes or a no?”

For some reason, anger surged up and he pressed. At this, Xie Wei laboriously lifted his eyelids and said.

“Of course not. I’m not even gay. How would two men even sleep together in the first place?”

Ray Jun narrowed his eyes into slits as he looked down at Xie Wei.

He hadn’t done anything wrong, yet he’d become extremely irritating. That face regarding it as natural without any doubt that there would be no sleeping with men was infuriating.

What expression would Xie Wei make if he shattered that narrow-minded misconception?

Whatever his true feelings, Ray Jun asked with a deep, sweet smile.

“Xie Wei, I’ll ask again. What would you do if I said I liked you?”

“…Huh?”

“What if I wanted to sleep with you? What if I wanted to kiss you and touch skin with you?”

“Hey, you…”

Xie Wei’s eyes gradually widened. Just as he thought the alcohol might be wearing off.

“You kissed me on purpose in Hong Kong, didn’t you! I thought something felt strange!”

“…”

Though it was a somewhat deflating response, it wasn’t wrong. If he’d put his mind to it back then, he could have helped in plenty of other ways. He’d just been amused by how he acted like a cornered, frightened mouse and teased him a bit, and it came back around this way today.

In conclusion, it had worked out well. He’d been itching from six months of not relieving his desires anyway. There was a human right before his eyes who caught his fancy, and he was even in the process of getting him in his grasp. Though he seemed to be refusing for now, it didn’t matter. He planned to make him walk in on his own eventually anyway.

“That’s right, Xie Wei. I like you.”

“Uh…”

“Instead of saying you can’t, you won’t, couldn’t you give me a chance? I’ll show you. That men can sleep with men too.”

Ray Jun spoke desperately like an actor full of appeal. Precisely piercing the timing and tone to shake someone’s heart was his specialty.

“Like drinking wine today, right? You tried something you normally didn’t do, and it wasn’t a big deal, was it? You’re even feeling good about it. That day’s kiss too… honestly, it wasn’t all bad, was it?”

As expected, it worked properly on Xie Wei too, as his pupils trembled finely.

“N-no…”

“No, what. Xie Wei, didn’t you think about me after that day?”

“…”

“You did?”

Easy fool.

Watching Xie Wei whose face had reddened as if about to burst, Ray Jun swallowed his sneer.

Someone who’s so lonely, who doesn’t even know he’s lonely despite that, who lives tensing up his strength to avoid breaking—is just as easy to break. Especially if it was Xie Wei, who basically had favorable feelings toward him, he could already consider him half-dragged into bed.

Ray Jun gently took Xie Wei’s hand resting on the table. He flinched, but didn’t pull away the caught hand.

“Let’s go.”

“Wh-where…”

“Somewhere only we can be.”

“There’s only us here too… You said you rented it out.”

He led the hand of Xie Wei, who was babbling blankly. Xie Wei stood up from his seat as if being dragged along, though bewildered. As expected, even if he said no with his mouth, he knew he’d be pulled along this easily.

Ray Jun left the restaurant with Xie Wei, inwardly letting out a sneer.

The world that had been bright when they entered had darkened before they knew it. It was a night with a pleasantly cool breeze.

* * *

Ray Jun headed to the nearest hotel with Xie Wei.

The well-trained front desk employee handed over the key without showing any reaction to the suspicious atmosphere emanating from the two men. They must have seen all sorts of things at the hotel. Ray Jun himself had seen it plenty working at the casino inside the resort.

They took the elevator up to the reserved room. Xie Wei, who had been dozing off the whole time, seemed to regain a bit of consciousness and tried to steady himself by gripping the handrail. Where was he trying to go when he kept stumbling? Ray Jun got off the elevator tightly holding Xie Wei’s waist.

Upon entering the room, the hotel’s characteristic dry air brushed his nose. There were no suites left so he’d reserved a mid-to-high-grade room, which was decent enough. Really, could any room be worse than that cramped room in the Sovereign staff dormitory?

“…R-Ray Jun?”

When he laid Xie Wei on the bed, finally realizing it wasn’t a joke, he hesitantly backed away. Not that it mattered—his head soon hit the bed headboard with nowhere left to retreat.

“Weren’t we going to sleep, Xie Wei? Well, it’ll be more fun awake though.”

“No, I think you’ve mistaken me for someone else. I’m not that kind of person…”

Was he still trying to insist he couldn’t sleep with a man? Ray Jun pulled up the corners of his mouth.

“I’m not mistaken though? Aren’t you the one who’s mistaken about something? You said you’d give me a chance.”

“Huh? Uh.”

“I’ll show you. How men do it together.”

Ray Jun pressed down on Xie Wei’s body with one hand while unbuckling his belt with the other. Then he pulled down both his pants and underwear at once.

Xie Wei, his lower half exposed in an instant, looked up at Ray Jun with wide eyes. It was a look as if asking what he was doing.

Instead of answering, Ray Jun took off his own pants too. As if since he’d undressed him, it was the natural sequence for him to undress too.

When he lowered his briefs, his already aroused member was revealed. Ray Jun leisurely stroked his own while not taking his eyes off Xie Wei.

“…Ugh.”

“Hm?”

“That’s disgusting.”

He spat out with his face scrunched up. Ray Jun lightly caressed Xie Wei’s member in response.

“It’s not that different from yours though?”

“No, I…”

Without giving him a chance to protest, Ray Jun firmly stroked Xie Wei’s member.

“You said ‘between men with the same thing attached.’ By your logic, you should feel disgusted by yours too. But to me, it just looks pretty?”

A pinkish color as if flushed, and a member that wasn’t curved. It reacted quite quickly to stimulation and had already hardened.

Ray Jun genuinely felt pleased. He’d roughly expected Xie Wei’s member to be good since he was tall and well-built, but confirming it with his eyes was even more excellent.

“Hah…”

He groped the thigh of Xie Wei, who was breathing heavily. Xie Wei had a masculine body with attractively attached muscles. It was even better than he’d guessed when seeing him in the well-fitted uniform.

Thinking he should have devoured him sooner if he’d known, he spread Xie Wei’s legs. For someone who said he could never do it with a man, he complied quite obediently. Though it seemed he hadn’t properly grasped what situation this was. However, when he pushed his index finger into the hole, Xie Wei finally flinched.

“What? Why there…”

“It’s not strange. Xie Wei, you asked how men sleep together, right? It’s done here.”

“…Ngh.”

When he curved his finger like a hook and pressed the inner wall, Xie Wei lightly frowned. He seemed to feel something strange and uncomfortable. Ray Jun pushed further before he could come to his senses.

With meticulous caressing, the tension released from below Xie Wei. Judging it was enough, Ray Jun properly positioned himself between those legs and aligned their lower bodies.

“Wait. …Hey!”

When he pushed his hips up as is, Xie Wei shoved Ray Jun’s shoulders. The resistance was quite strong. Instead of suppressing him with force, Ray Jun whispered sweetly.

“Xie Wei, I like you.”

“…”

“I like you so much I want to hold you. Can’t I?”

The hand gripping Ray Jun’s shoulder trembled. He couldn’t push Ray Jun away, but couldn’t embrace him either. Ray Jun grabbed that wrist and made him wrap it around his neck.

“I’ll make you feel good.”

At that honey-coated lie, Xie Wei no longer resisted.
