Rebirth of Chen An-Chapter 70: Kick Your Ass
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Though they had quarrels with each other, when it came to card playing, they still played.
After a round of deal, the points of cards in Chen An's hand was the smallest. Chen An lowered his eyes and took a look at his own ace of base. He did not care what conflict Ivanov had with Lu Feng at this moment. The only thing he knew was that if he won, the gains would belong to him, but if he lost, the losses would be borne by Ivanov.
Was he going to lose? The only one he would lose to was himself, and he would definitely win if he wanted to.
"Ten million" His raise and the leisured act made some people at the same table feel uneasy all of a sudden.
"This is just the beginning of this game, and you are making it a big one. But if you lose, Ivanov will give a piece of his mind to you." During this whole time, Lu Feng had never had a look at his own ace of base. Subtly raising the corners of his lips, Lu Feng casually pushed the chips in front of him into the pot, "call, ten million."
It seemed like they were not playing with the real money, but just some virtual currency.
Chen An frowned slightly, he did not know this man Lu Feng also knew how to gamble and he could be so generous when gambling. This all of a sudden made him feel a little uncomfortable. Did Lu Feng used to go to the casino behind his back?
"Come on, Lu Feng, stop speaking ill of me in front of my dear. Can I be such a stingy man?" Ivanov also raised ten million, but it seemed to be a mere counterattack to Lu Feng. He said affectionately to Chen An, who was sitting beside him, "Dear, don't listen to what he said, he is just being jealous of me."
"What is he jealous of you for, that you just dare to play tricks under that table?" Chen An gently shot a few words of ridicule at Ivanov. After this round of deal was finished, the cards with the best points were the ones in the hand of Lu Feng.
Lu Feng gave Ivanov a cold look. "Ivanov, your cards do not look very good, the goddess of fortune is not always by your side, and sometimes she will also choose the better one and abandon the worse one. Twenty million."
Lu Feng suddenly doubled the raise. Seeing the atmosphere was not right, several players at the same table chose to fold and watch the situation. Although some losses were inevitable now, it seemed the losses would get bigger if they continued to play.
"Call" Chen An was not soft-hearted when he spent another people's money. He called and made it seem like a casual move.
In this way, the game went on for two rounds. There were only three people, Ivanov, Chen An and Lu Feng left playing at the table. At this time, Ivanov smiled a lazy smile and chose to fold, leaving Lu Feng and Chen An playing directly against each other.
"There is more than one hundred million in the pot now. Dear, if you win, they are all yours." Ivanov moved toward Chen An and held this man's waist in an intimate way. Those words with hot breath, like the warm ambiguous wind, were blown into Chen's ears, making him feel a little itchy.
"If I win, the money will be mine, if I lose..." Chen An turned his head away with a blank expression on his face, and he stretched out a finger to push slowly the big furry bear away until the distance between them was restored to a safe level.
Those half-finished words were the most tantalizing. Ivanov narrowed his eyes in a dangerous way and said in a low voice, "If you lose…?"
"If I lose, as the compensation, you can ask me to do whatever you want me to do." Chen An slightly hooked Ivanov's jaw. Obviously, those words were said so casually, but they delivered endless temptation with the charm of a pair of enchanting eyes of that man.
"I get to let you do whatever I want you to do or I get to do whatever I want to do to you?" Ivanov gave a low smile, licking his lips gently with the tip of his scarlet tongue. His eyes were staring closely at that unflappable man like a carnivorous beast.
He had long wanted to press this man named Chen An under his body. He missed his first kiss with Chen An, a kiss tainted with alcohol, he missed the warmth given by the palm of that man's slightly callous hand when Chen An touched his chest, and he missed even more Chen An's blurred and flirtatious eyes when he got drunk.
He wanted to pour vodka all over Chen An's body and lick bit by bit the alcohol on this man's body with the tip his tongue. He would like to personally watch this man, who made his toes curl, fall so madly in love with him that he would let him have control over him.
He wanted to take possession of this man called Chen An in some ways that were not barbaric. If Chen An could take the initiative, it would be better.
"Either of them" Chen An answered Ivanov's flirty question with a faint of calmness, but his sight had never left Lu Feng, the man who was sitting diagonally across him.
Based on the cards holding in their hands, it was obvious that the points of Lu Feng's cards were better, but no one knew who would be the final winner before they turned over the ace of base.
"Money is just not enough for this game. How about adding something extra?"
Lu Feng quietly watched Chen An and Ivanov, who were bargaining with each other, and a complicated disappointment flashed in his eyes. He could not tell what it was. But when he saw Ivanov approaching the man named Chen An, Lu Feng had the same intense displeasing feeling as what he felt six months ago when he saw Ivanov molesting Chen An.
Chen An asked: "What does Mr. Lu want to play?"
Lu Feng did not like the feeling that caused his strong emotional fluctuations, not at all.
"If I win, I will kill you before Ivanov lays his hands on you. If you win, I will leave you alone today." Lu Feng said calmly as if he was talking about the weather. It suddenly made the atmosphere tense and stagnated.
Ivanov grinned, nobody could tell whether Lu Feng was talking about a joke or a serious thing. "Who just said that I will kill Chen An, but now who is saying that he is going to kill Chen An? My god, Lu Feng, you are not having a crush on me, right? I am sorry, even if Chen An is dead, I will not have any interest in you."
Lu Feng completely ignored Ivanov's tease, and he was gazing quietly at Chen An with his fanatic but cold eyes.
There was only one person who could cause him endure emotional fluctuations, and that person was dead. He would not betray Changan, never.
If there was a lurking incentive, then he would completely annihilate it before his heart flipped. He indeed wanted to kill Ivanov, but now he was more attempted to... to kill this man named Chen An.
No matter it was those pictures that were used to deliberately make him angry, or the imitated handwriting that he could not tell if it was the true or the fake handwriting of Changan's, or this man who was sitting in front of him bore almost the same temperament with Changan.
He buried Changan himself, and Changan had already died. As punishment, he was living with endless yearning and loneliness.
This was the punishment given by Changan, the memory left by that man. He would not let anyone destroy his memory for Changan. All the things that interfered with his emotions shall be destroyed, whether it was pictures or a human.
"You want to kill me?" When he heard Lu Feng's words, Chen An smiled. The raised mouth and cold smile in that man's eyes made Lu Feng have a moment of confusion. It seemed like this person sitting in front of him was the man that he used to be madly obsessed with.
It was illusion, just like those pictures, it was the illusion that Ivanov came up to confuse him.
Lu Feng slightly clenched his wineglass. His gravelly voice was like the creaking ice chips in a cold winter night. "I want to kill you right now."
"Then you will have to win me first." Chen An turned over his ace of base.
......
......
"Why are you staring me like this?"
Standing in front of the mirror in the bathroom, Chen An lowered his head and washed his face. Right after he wiped the water off his face and put on his glasses, he saw in the mirror that big furry bear was staring at him.
"What? Seeing that I have won so much money, you want to regret?"
Chen An turned around, and Ivanov standing next to him suddenly went forward and cornered Chen An between the washstand and his arms. The distance was so close that Chen An could smell the mixed scent of cigar, cologne and vodka on Ivanov.
"What are you doing?!" With his glass suddenly got removed by Ivanov, Chen An slightly frowned and said unpleasantly.
Without his glasses on, Chen An was a man with super myopia and could not see things five meters away clearly. He did not like this feeling of vagueness at all because it felt like he was surrounded with fog and could not see anything.
"I find you very attractive without your glasses on. What a pair of beautiful and charming eyes!" Ivanov casually put Chen An's glasses aside and used his physical strength to stuck Chen An in the middle of his chest and the washstand.
Ivanov grinned and leaned closely toward Chen An to sniff the faint bath scent on him. The body shampoo provided by the hotel had a cherry aroma, so on Chen An's body there was also a cherry fragrance that did not belong to this autumn. Though he was a ruthless man, with such a romantic and sweet smell, even Chen An looked extraordinarily sweet.
"It is autumn now, not the season of estrus." Using his palm to push against Ivanov's chest, Chen An turned his head away and looked at his glasses.
As if he was aware of what Chen An was going to do, Ivanov deliberately took the lead and pushed the glasses farther.
"You are not afraid?" Ivanov smiled joyfully as if he was just flirting with a man now.
"Afraid of what?" Chen An raised his eyebrow like he usually did.
"That man called Lu Feng, there's never a target can survive his hunt, and he wants to kill you." Frivolously pinching that man's jaw, Ivanov squinted at Chen An. It seemed that he had a lot of confusion. "An, you and Lu Feng have just met for two times, but he wants to kill you. This only shows that you can affect him."
