Keeping You On Tanter Hooks Chapter 1

It was so cold that most of the body was forced into ice water. The biting chill ran along the skin, blended into the flesh and blood, and seeped into the bone marrow. It seemed that in the next second, even the heart would stop beating because of this extreme cold.

Song Yucheng suddenly opened his eyes, only to find himself lying on the cold floor, his whole body wet. The thermometer hanging on the wall not far away had a scarlet scale that stopped at the terrifying number 3.

He suddenly felt powerless to complain.

It was said that the law enforcers of the Space-Time Administration would be well paid, but that became nonsense when it came to him. After all, he was a well-known lawyer in the political and legal circles in the real world, but he almost froze to death at the beginning of his first mission.

He got up from the ground with a stiff body, changed his clothes first, and turned up the air conditioner temperature. Only after his body temperature returned to normal did he have time to sit down and take a look at the plot introduction provided by the system.

Then, I felt a sour taste in my mouth at the tone of the above description.

There are always losers who are lost in love, who lose their dignity as human beings, abandon their backbone to speak up, and are willing to be a joke.

And the original body's life was such a joke.

Coincidentally, the first world Song Yucheng was assigned to was a modern fictional world where gay marriage was legal. The original incarnation of this world had the same name as Song Yucheng. He was a naive young master whose parents died and whose family property was taken away by his relatives. The saddest thing was that Tate Xu, the only person he regarded as a lifeline, was actually a complete Sc*mbag.

Who could have expected that Tate Xu had carefully trained him for five years and painted a fairy-tale dream for him, just to make him a better substitute for another person. And these cruel truths showed their ugliest faces on the day he was about to confess.

"I don't want to!" In the suite that was decorated as an exquisite birdcage, the young man with red and swollen eyes confronted the tall man, totally unable to believe what he had heard.

He has no relatives, and Tate Xu is the one who understands him best. But Tate Xu clearly knows that he still has his parents' property to take back and his dreams to realize, but now, he is ordered to destroy his reputation and future to become a stepping stone for Liam Chu, the most perfect white moonlight in his heart.

Looking at the face of his former love, the young man felt so sad that he was almost unable to move his hands and feet.

"Tate Xu, I have been with you for five years. Apart from this house, I have never asked you for a penny. As long as you come to me for dinner, I will prepare the best food for you even if I have to drink cold water for the next three days. As for your preferences, I will accept them all. I have always thought that this is a test between lovers. You are strong, and I can be humble. But now, you tell me that I am just a substitute."

"Don't you think this is ridiculous?"

Holding onto Tate Xu's sleeve tightly, the young man longed to get even a little bit of care from him. But sadly, there was none at all. The contempt, as if looking at trash, made it easy for him to understand his position in Tate Xu's heart.

From the beginning to the end, he was just a worthless plaything.

Oh, plaything, what a pathetic and ridiculous word? The reluctance and despair left over from the original body kept impacting Song Yucheng's spiritual space.

He woke up from the memory fragment of his original body and suddenly smiled. But then, the message from the other end of the phone made the irony in his smile even stronger.

Secretary Grant: Mr. Xu said that you have to act according to the script, not even a single word can be wrong.

As if to echo this message, the computer on the table made a sound of receiving a new email on time. Song Yucheng walked over and looked through the email on it. It was the script of "Swap Life". At the same time, the plot related to it also became clear.

This reality show called "Exchange Lives" was the most critical fuse in the original person's life tragedy.

In recent years, reality shows have become increasingly popular, and "Swap Life" is one of the most popular shows. Its biggest selling point is that people from different professions and families swap their identities, allowing them to experience their own lives.

In Tate Xu's words, this program is the best stepping stone for Liam Chu to change his past image in the public eye.

Liam Chu debuted as a child star, with good acting skills and good looks, and excellent academic performance. He is the most famous national younger brother. Now if you want to become a gentle male god, you must have someone to accompany you.

But such a person is too hard to find. He must be from a good family, not look so ugly, and be willing to accept the lazy script. Who else could be more suitable than the original body that he had trained?

It can be said that it was very painstaking.

Flipping through the script, Song Yucheng looked at the "rubbish" textbook clips with a cold eye, thinking they were all boring old jokes. Instead, it was Secretary Grant who gave him the script who aroused his interest more.

Speaking of Secretary Grant, she was actually one of Tate Xu's many lovers. They clearly marked the price and had physical relationships with him. This shows that the true love Tate Xu talked about was not as deep as the sea.

After all, while he was shouting "unforgettable", he never stopped Fcuking others, and even created countless substitutes to look like Liam Chu. It was so ugly and hypocritical that it was disgusting. Only the original body, a fool, would be brainwashed and give up on himself because of Xu Mu's words "bought B!tch".

Thinking of this, the sarcasm in Song Yucheng's eyes became even stronger.

The cell phone rang again, interrupting his thoughts.

It was still Secretary Grant from before. Most likely because Song Yucheng did not reply in time, the other party called again.

"Did you hear Mr. Xu's order?" Secretary Grant's tone was very stiff, and even a little disdainful. As for his next sentence, it was full of threats: "Don't forget, everything you have is given by Mr. Xu. If you can't do such a small thing, you don't have to study anymore."

After saying that, the secretary waited for Song Yucheng to apologize first as usual.

This secretary is not a good person, he has no skills, he is just a lackey of Tate Xu who relies on selling his a** to get to the top. According to common sense, the original body has no grudges against him, why should he deliberately make things difficult for him?

After all, it was because he felt guilty.

Tate Xu had many lovers, and he kept him just for convenience. But this man took Tate Xu's money and flirted with a young man. The original body happened to see it. Therefore, even though he knew that the original body would not talk much, he was still afraid of mistakes and wanted to kill the original body immediately to prevent future troubles. That's why he made things difficult for him.

But the original person was a fool. He thought Secretary Grant was Tate Xu's right-hand man, so he always tolerated and gave in.

Recalling the previous life, Secretary Grant saw that the original body had been abandoned by the Sc*mbag, so he took advantage of the original body's participation in the program to spread rumors in the forum of the original body's school, saying that the original body was kept by someone, and also released a bunch of unsightly P*rnographic photos. Song Yucheng's fingers holding the phone involuntarily clenched a little due to the influence of the original body's remaining emotions.

After all, for the original body, Secretary Grant’s revenge was the beginning of the real abyss of despair.

Because even though he was abandoned by his Sc*mbag, he still had his studies to rely on. But when the school expelled him for his work style, he was truly desperate and lost the reason to live.

"Garbage, trash, ungrateful." He didn't know how many times he had received private messages on Weibo insulting him. It had never stopped since the show was aired. The school incident had also spread in the community, and everyone looked at him with eyes full of "cheap" and "dirty".

All these false charges were like extremely sharp blades, piercing the original body's broken heart and making it bleed profusely.

They should all pay the price for this.

The deep hatred suddenly enveloped Song Yucheng's entire body, and his clear eyes also added a bit of blood color out of thin air. However, in just a moment, he regained his composure.

In the real world, his years of career as a lawyer had taught him a lot, and he had even dealt with the ugliest evil spirits. For Song Yucheng, these hardships in his original life were not that serious. And the little secretary in front of him was just a clown.

With the hands-free function turned on, Song Yucheng flipped through the photos on his phone. Sure enough, after just a few pages, he saw evidence of his secretary having an affair with a young man. He pondered over it briefly and soon came up with an idea.

The original body was a fool, holding the evidence in his hand, but he was still trampled into a grandson. The secretary and Tate Xu were in the same nest, neither of them was a good person, and he would not let them go easily if they fell into his hands.

What's more, his mission was to cuckold Tate Xu. In that case, he might as well let the secretary cuckold Tate Xu first.

Thinking of this, Song Yucheng chuckled and suddenly asked the secretary: "I found that Secretary Grant always speaks to me in a very arrogant manner. But I don't understand. We are both sellers. How can you have the illusion that you are superior to others?"

"What did you say?"

"I say, they are all for sale, why do you think you are superior to others?" Song Yucheng's tone seemed to have a hint of teasing as he thought of something interesting, but the sarcasm between the lines was like a slap in the secretary's face.

"Tsk, let me ask you, how good is Tate Xu in bed? Does he enjoy playing with you? Does he call you a Sl*t? Does he scream Liam Chu's name when he climaxes? Does he pull out his D!ck mercilessly at the end and slap you hard in the face after getting off the bed?"

The young man's clear voice naturally had a sense of clarity and abstinence, but every word he uttered was extremely vulgar, almost perfectly restoring the relationship between Secretary Grant and Tate Xu, directly peeling off his last layer of fig leaf.

Secretary Grant usually cares about his reputation. He has been with Xu Mu for a long time and is used to bullying others. He is indeed trying to get a better future, but he will never allow others to point fingers at him and insult him. Especially for a discarded child like Song Yucheng. He was so angry that he trembled all over and gnashed his teeth, "Song Yucheng, you are courting death."

"Aren't you the one who's asking for death?" Song Yucheng's voice gradually grew colder: "Even if I'm Tate Xu's toy, you're just a tool for satisfying his S3xual desires, and you're not much nobler than me. Don't order me around, you're not worthy." After saying that, he hung up the phone, logged onto the website, and did another thing.

The filming period of "Swap Life" requires a summer vacation, and during this summer vacation, he is not in Yanjing, so he must ensure that there is no fire in the backyard. Especially since he just had a falling out with Secretary Grant, this person will never let him go, so he has to be doubly careful.

Song Yucheng has always been decisive, and he naturally understands how serious the consequences will be if the root of the problem is not removed. Moreover, the resentment left in the original soul is too heavy, so he has to deal with one first to calm him down.

So that night, a photo of Secretary Grant having an affair with a popular young man appeared on a gossip magazine's big V account on Weibo. Secretary Grant was passionately hanging on the young man, and her posture was unsightly. It quickly became a hot topic and was even topped the hot search list.

Finished...

Secretary Grant's heart sank immediately after seeing this. This scene was too familiar. Wasn't it the scene when he was dating a young man that day and was caught by Song Yucheng? He never expected that Song Yucheng actually had evidence in his hand! And he even published it directly in this way. Flipping through the gossip news that covered the Internet, Secretary Grant's face became paler and paler.

He couldn't afford to trouble Song Yucheng, and had to find a way to get rid of the matter immediately. Otherwise, once Tate Xu knew about it, the consequences would be disastrous.

However, things went against their wishes. Several PR companies that had previously treated Secretary Grant like brothers all pretended to be dead and remained silent. As for that young hunk, he could not be contacted directly.

I'm afraid it's going to get out of hand.

The secretary felt a sense of danger and stood there in a trance, feeling like a lamb to be slaughtered, without any ability to resist. Then, the news from Tate Xu frightened him so much that he sat down on the ground, and cold sweat instantly soaked through his clothes on the back.

Tate Xu sent a message: "If you like playing, have fun with them in the future."

It's fun, but who will I play with? Thinking of the tricks used in the circle, the secretary suddenly turned pale.

He had followed Tate Xu for so many years, and no one understood Tate Xu's mind better than him. This sentence cut off his future. The secretary sat there in a daze, helplessly letting the fear overwhelm him bit by bit.

---

Meanwhile, Tate Xu on the other side was not as furious as everyone imagined. After all, the secretary was just a careless dog. He could lift him up, but he could also send him to his doom. What surprised him even more was Song Yucheng. Tate Xu had been teasing him for five years, so he naturally knew that Song Yucheng would have a temper, but he didn't expect that he would dare to reach out to him.

To him, neither the tool for S3xual gratification nor the substitute doll was important. But what he hated most was when someone made decisions without authorization. Tate Xu's lips curled up in a playful smile, but his eyes were extremely cold, which was clearly a precursor to anger.

"Should we give him a warning?" Tate Xu's confidant asked.

"No, it's just a little thing, let someone watch it. As long as he acts according to the script, don't worry about anything else." After saying that, Tate Xu sent a text message to Song Yucheng himself, which only said one sentence: "If you don't act well, Secretary Grant will end up like you."

Kill the chicken to scare the monkey!

After Song Yucheng saw the message, he immediately understood clearly and sensed the sarcasm and threat in Tate Xu's words.

He understood that even if he killed Secretary Grant, who was bullying others and lost Tate Xu's face, in Tate Xu's eyes, he was still just an orphan who could not make much trouble. It was just that he was still useful now, so Tate Xu was too lazy to pay attention to him. As for the reality show later, if he dared not follow the script, Tate Xu would certainly not let him go easily. But having inherited the memory of the original body, Song Yucheng understood that if he really acted according to the script, he would not be able to escape public condemnation afterwards.

How interesting? A dead end dilemma.

However, at this moment, the system suddenly gave a prompt, which interrupted his thinking. After reading the content carefully, Song Yucheng was directly amused.

Is this considered a joke? Why is the golden finger named like this?

System: The professional cuckold system has been successfully restarted, stimulating the original body's innate talent, [You will never guess what kind of beauty my hands can give] ~
