Chapter 5 - Chapter 5: Outside the bedroom

Ling-er and Jun sat across from the most gorgeous man they had ever laid eyes on.

He was the very definition of handsomeness, perfection in every sense.

Tall and statuesque, his flawless skin could put celebrities to shame.

His facial proportions were so ideal they seemed like a literal slap to the golden ratio, and his well-built frame only added to his commanding presence.

How could one man be blessed with such ungodly features?

They couldn't help but wonder why someone like him chose this line of work.

A model, an actor, an idol, he could excel in any of those careers.

Lost in their thoughts, they didn't realize how long they'd been staring at him until he cleared his throat.

"Oh my, so sorry," Ling-er said, flustered. Her husband quickly nodded in agreement.

"You're just… unbelievable to look at," she added, blinking in awe.

He gave a small, practiced smile. "I get that a lot. Now, about your daughter?"

Ling-er straightened, her composure returning. "Yes, we need you to… help her open up to relationships."

Jun chimed in, "We heard you're an expert who works professionally and doesn't involve the, uh…" He coughed, clearly uncomfortable with the subject.

Ling-er finished the thought, albeit hesitantly. "You don't involve anything related to… the bedroom."

He smiled, his expression calm and reassuring. "Correct. I don't need to bed a woman to help her open up to the idea of dating, or liking men."

As he spoke, his eyes casually trailed toward the photograph of their daughter on the table. He paused, his breath hitching for the briefest moment.

She's stunning. He wasn't sure if his usual self-control would hold with this one, but he was a professional.

"I can assure you," he said smoothly, his confidence returning, "your daughter will be very open to the idea of dating once I'm done working with her."

Ling-er's eyes welled with tears, her hope palpable. "I hope so."

Jun nodded, his expression softening. "Yes, I hope so too. And it would be great if she could make some friends and maybe even go places other than gaming competitions."

The man nodded. "Your wish is my command. Will you be staying in the house during this process?"

Jun glanced at Ling-er before replying, "Oh, no. We'll be staying at our other condo in Hong Kong for a while."

A small smirk tugged at the corners of the man's lips. "Perfect."
