Tristen smiled and said, "You do favor lust over friendship! How cI didn't find out you were such a person before?" Tristen and Harley had known each other for six or seven years. When they first met, they both had a miserable time.
At that time, Tristen was sent down to take charge of a branch in Juanton City by his family. Without pocket money, and he also had to rely on himself for living expenses. His family was hard-hearted and determined to ignore him.
As soon as Harley's so-called friends received his phone call to borrow money, they said the signal was bad and they couldn't hear what he said.
It was a winter day and snowing heavily. Tristen had only twenty dollars left in his pocket. He bought a pack of cigarettes, and then in the pool room, he played pool with the rest of the money, betting against his opponent players for thirty dollars a round.
He played from midday until two o'clock in the morning, winning many rounds and more than three hundred dollars. But he was targeted by a few bad guys.

Tristen was never easy to mess with since he was a child! Now he only had this money, and there was someone who even wanted to rob him! These guys were grabbing food from a hungry tiger's mouth, and Tristen would never back down! Tristen used to fight a lot. He was sent down to Juanton City also because of the trouble caused by his fight.
But the opponents who used to fight with him in the past were srich and playful dandies, and their fighting capacity was poor.
While these robbers were real tough guys. They were ruthless and hard.
Tristen was one-to-many after all, and he couldn't hold back after a while.
It was snowing heavily, and Tristen was cold and hungry. When he was kicked down on the snow, he was about to accept his fate and give up fighting back.
After his mother died, the Mercado family wished he had died too. Tristen sometimes didn’t know what he was living for.
But right then, Harley appeared out of nowhere. With an iron rod in his hand, brave and mighty Harley beat those bad guys away.
After Harley got them away, he walked over and kicked Tristen, who was lying on the snow, "Are you dead? Get up if you're not dead! Stand up!" It was the first tTristen met such a guy, and the words he spoke were colder than the falling snow.
Tristen, who was beaten black and blue, was miserable. Harley helped him walk and let him stay at his house for a while. At that time, not long after Harley’s grandmother died, Harley lived alone in a shabby bungalow.
From that day on, Tristen stayed at Harley's house, and the two becgood friends. Later, Tristen went through the transfer procedures himself.
Later, he was admitted to a university in the Capital city.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt that time, Tristen didn't even think about competing for the Mercado family's property. When he said this to Harley, Harley sneered and said he was stupid, "It should be yours. Why don’t you want it?" Everyone in the Mercado family saw Tristen as a jackal and hated him! But in fact, Tristen didn't want the property.
But what Harley said was right. Even if he didn't fight for the property that should belong to him, the Mercado family would guard against him and make trouble for him.
So Tristen went to fight for what he deserved and took back everything that should have belonged to him! Later, Tristen and Harley were far away from each other, one in the south and one in the north. Tristen invested the money he got from the Mercado family into Harley's business. They were friends who had shared hardships and trusted each other.
Over these years, Harley had no friends and relatives around him. He had only Tristen, a friend who could talk to him.
Tristen had been getting better and better in recent years, and his mentality was much better. He felt that Harley was like an ascetic monk. He even worried about whether Harley would tell him that he would beca monk someday.
Harley was living a life of desiring nothing. He was also a bit temperamental, and he didn’t like to talk to people a lot of the time.
Two years ago, Tristen wanted to introduce a girlfriend to Harley. Just because of Harley's handslooks, those girls were more active than each other.
But Harley had been very cold about those girls. Sdaring girls went to ask Tristen if Harley liked men.
For a while, Tristen did think Harley didn’t like women. Because of this, he was beaten by Harley, and from then on he did not doubt Harley's sexual orientation anymore.
