Wang Che was surprised by the question. He did not think that Shun had strange ulterior motives. He was probably looking for some gossip about him. Somehow, that made Wang Che a little happy. He was glad to see Shun taking an interest in him.
In the past, the two of them were close, but Shun tended to avoid deep conversations with him. He would not ask about his family or his past. The avoidance was most likely subconscious. But again, Shun was also vague about his life before Supreme City.
"Why do you want to know?" He still asked.
"Don't you want for me to fall in love with you?" Shun asked while breathing heavily due to the soreness of his muscles. "I think it would be a good thing for me to know about your life."
"Pure sophistry." Wang Che snorted.
"I bet you are a player, and you do not want me to know about it. I will probably realise that you are a no-good wolf and run away." Shun chuckled as he imagined running away from a black wolf with Wang Che's face.
Wang Che sighed. "Then, I will have to disappoint you. For your information, I have only had two girlfriends. No boyfriends. Except for you."
Shun raised his head in shock. He wanted to look at Wang Che, but the other man pushed his head back to the massage table.
"That is impossible," Shun said. "You look like someone who breaks hearts, left, right and centre."
Wang Che laughed. "Should I take that as a compliment?"
Shun snorted in annoyance. "Hardly. I bet you left those girls crying on the kerb."
Something in Wang Che's face shifted at the words, but he did not stop massaging Shun's mid-back steadily. It took a moment before he responded to Shun.
"I will have to disappoint you once again." Wang Che said. "I was the one who was left crying on the metaphorical kerb."
Shun tried to lift his head again so that he could take a look at Wang Che in shock. He could not imagine anyone leaving Wang Che. Even without his memories, he could see that the other man was a great catch in every sense of the word.
Of course, he would never say these words to Wang Che.
In terms of looks, Wang Che was mostly unrivalled in Supreme City. He was known as a prince and a dream husband in the metropolis. Unless one compared him to someone like the celestial Zhong Feng, he would be at the top.
Also, his financial status was not poor.
"That does not seem right. I would think any girl would use all means possible to keep you." Shun spoke up after a long moment of disbelief.
Wang Che was a little amused as he moved on to the lower back. He poured more oil on his hands and warmed it by rubbing his hands together. Then, he resumed the massage. Shun shivered slightly as the fingers dug into his flesh.
It did not feel uncomfortable like his strained upper back. It was actually a little pleasant. Perhaps too pleasant… He tried to focus on talking instead of keeping his mind on the electric sensations crawling up his spine.
"I am glad you think so." Wang Che laughed. "Does that mean you will not leave me? Will you try your best to keep me?"
Shun blushed, even though his head was concealed. "Stop trying to change the subject. What happened?"
"Mmmh, let's see. I was a teenager when I had my first girlfriend. The two of us were good friends, and we became closer over time. We made foolish plans to go to university together, but she had a better idea to secure her future." He explained.
"You are being vague," Shun whined.
Wang Che chuckled lightly before moving to massage Shun's thighs. Shun sighed in relief because he was afraid that Wang Che would massage his butt, and he would have to let him because he was not going to be a chicken.
No, the feeling in his heart was not of disappointment.
"Do you want to know exactly how she ripped apart my heart?" Wang Che asked.
Shun was immediately overwhelmed with guilt. "You do not have to tell me. I was just a little curious."
Wang Che laughed. Shun was just as he used to be. He would act all aggressive and powerful. But a little trick would bring him back to his natural soft and cuddly state. He did not have a mean bone in his body. It made it too easy to trick him.
"I am just kidding. I was not in love with her. It was just a comfortable arrangement. And I was only seventeen at the time." Wang Che moved on to the calves with his firm and sure motions.
"So, why did she leave you?" Shun asked.
"She decided that my elder brother was a better choice for her. He had a better chance of inheriting the family business, so she chose him. They got married a little while later. I cannot fault her decision. My brother has almost taken the reins of the business completely." Wang Che said.
Shun felt sad for Wang Che. He could not imagine how Wang Che must have felt. He was always angry at his brothers because they kept tabs on him at all times he never had a single moment away from his family.
He felt that they were oppressing him and standing in the way of him being an independent man. They did not know how to show their care, so they ended up doing a lot of questionable things. But he knew they would never do anything to harm him.
"I'm sorry," Shun asked.
"Turn over." Wang Che said.
Shun turned to his back and met the evil eyes of a man who claimed to be his boyfriend. He felt a little shy because of the direct look. And he could not hide his face like before. It was a little overwhelming, so he closed his eyes like a child.
Wang Che shook his head in amusement and started massaging the pectoral muscles. The sensation of those hands on the chest was different from the back. Shun squirmed in place, and his face turned even redder, but he refused to open his eyes.
"What about your second girlfriend?" Shun asked to distract himself.
"That is a much longer story." Wang Che said.. "I will tell you next week if you keep being my good boy."
