The Ingenious Liam Price

41: Faking The Attraction

It was a sunny afternoon when Wang Lui An lay on his beach mat on the foreshore, tanning his skin. He was wearing his shades to block his vision from the sun but knew his skin needed most of it.

He grabbed his strained pineapple and drank a little through his straw, before keeping it back.

Four men in suits were standing a few feet away from him. These were his bodyguards who were assigned to watch over him whilst he was at the beach.

Wang Lui An's phone rang and someone rushed to hand him the phone.

"Hello?" He spoke in Chinese and before the caller could respond, Wang Lui An's phone unconsciously slipped up from his hand.

He hurriedly sat upright and removed his shades upon seeing the good-looking, young white man resurfacing the water.

Wang Lui An's throat worked as his eyes raked at the ripped muscles and broadness of this stranger's shoulder. He was shirtless, wearing just black briefs and the way tiny droplets of water rolled from his chest was sizzling to Wang Lui An.
