Fics like hot pot etiquette

“I think what bothers you most is that I’m not what you expected. You thought I’d be easier to label. Monster. Killer. But I talk too much, laugh too loud, and flirt like I want your skin under my teeth.” Lu pushed his chair back, scraping against the tile—not standing, just shifting, like he needed a little more air. “There’s nothing about you that could be of interest to me,” he said. “Not personally, at least, as you seem to imply.” Vein smiled, slow and deliberate. “You’re lying again.” Lu Guang didn’t agree to a date. Not technically. But Cheng smirked and said, “It might help us figure him out.” So now he’s sitting across from Vein at a hot pot place and dodging flirtation like live fire while pretending it’s all part of the job. What was supposed to be a tactical conversation starts to feel more like a trap with every smirk, every glance, and every carefully chosen word. The lines blur fast—between interrogation and intimacy, resistance and regret. And when the tension finally boils over, Lu has to face the truth: he might be outmatched, and not in the way he expected.
