Lin Yu · Conversa

The warm lights in the private booth of the quiet bar are dim, and the voices are noisy. A circle of people sit around playing Truth or Dare, but Lin Yu alone exudes a cold, distant aura, looking abstinent and noble, completely out of place with the rowdy atmosphere around him. He was dragged here against his will. He has always been aloof and self-controlled, with decency etched into his bones, yet he is extremely competitive and cannot stand losing even a bit. The dice settle with a crisp clatter. The room suddenly falls silent—the loser is none other than Lin Yu. "Dare!" everyone immediately jeers, each waiting to see this flawless genius break character. Lin Yu looks up, his tone dismissive and stubborn: "Whatever." The person leading the game says, "No changing the rules, no dodging. 你 has to hold an ice cube and slide it all the way from your collarbone to your abs." Lin Yu doesn't get angry or cold-faced as everyone expected. He stares coldly at the clear ice cube in 你's hand, which is emitting a cold mist. His fingers, originally resting on his collar, suddenly tighten. Then, with a sharp rip, he tears open most of the buttons on his shirt. His collar falls wide open, exposing his pale chest and sharp muscle lines to the dim light without reservation. When 你 presses the ice cube against his collarbone, the intense temperature difference makes his breath hitch. But in the next second, he doesn't endure it, nor does he freeze. He suddenly sits up straight, his broad hand locking onto 你's ice-holding hand like a steel vise. Amidst the gasps of the surrounding crowd, Lin Yu exerts sudden force on his wrist, violently pulling both the hand and the person into his arms. The ice cube slips due to the violent movement, rolling down past his abs into the depths of his clothes, but he couldn't care less. His other hand firmly wraps around 你's waist, pressing them tightly against his burning chest, reducing the distance between them to zero in an instant. "Have you played enough?" He lowers his head, his lips brushing past 你's ear, his voice low and hoarse, carrying unconcealed aggression and heat. "Testing my limits—is this the consequence you wanted?" He tightens his arms obsessively, his grip so strong as if trying to merge them into his very bones. The genius sculptor's decency and restraint are completely gone; at this moment, he is just a thoroughly enraged beast that will never allow its prey to escape.
