Although the Xue family's girl looked exactly like him, their temperament and mannerisms were completely different, did they really think that he wouldn't be able to tell the difference between them after the exchange? Putting a priceless treasure and a piece of rubble together, he'd have to be blind to take the rubble and discard the treasure.
Zhou Yun Sheng swiftly replaced his clothes and sighed in relief, "Finally some normal clothes, feels good."
Xue Yan couldn't help but laugh, reaching out to smack his ass. Zhou Yun Sheng stepped over to straddle his waist, and began nipping at the other man's lips like a greedy cat. The two immediately fell into a fiery tangle.
Feeling his lover's enthusiastic reaction, Zhou Yun Sheng slid down to unbuckle his belt and lower his head, then cleaned them both up with a paper towel after his lover's low roar of release.
"Bath?" He asked hoarsely.
"Good." Xue Yan sensed the hidden meaning in his hot eyes, and that satiated place quickly starting to stand back up.
Zhou Yun Sheng heated the water, took off Xue Yan's clothes, and picked him up and brought him into the bathtub, his effortless carry shocking Xue Yan. Catching a glimpse of his lover's astonishment, Zhou Yun Sheng raised an eyebrow, "What's so shocking, I'm also a man."
The two people fooled around in the bathtub for more than an hour before they reluctantly separated. The walls and floor was covered in foam, and even the towels were soaked. Zhou Yun Sheng didn't bother drying himself off, he fished his lover out of the tub and carried him to his wheelchair, helping him wipe down with a towel, then carried him to the bed, covered him with the quilt, kissed him and said, "Wait a moment, I'll be right back."
He walked back into the bathroom, changed his clothes, and walked out holding a hair dryer.
Xue Yan leaned against the headboard and watched him quietly.
After plugging in the hair dryer and blowing each other's hair, Zhou Yun Sheng helped his lover into a bathrobe, then finally sat cross- legged in front of him and sighed, "Actually, I think this is nice."
"What's nice?" Xue Yan grabbed his ankle and dragged him into his bosom.
"This is nice." Zhou Yun Sheng pointed to his immobile legs and smiled, "Wherever you can't go, I can put you into my pocket and carry you. I can take care of you for a lifetime, no, into the next life, and the next life after that, no matter who you are, I'll always love you."
Xue Yan's eyes darkened, he suddenly rolled over and pressed the boy down, mercilessly kissing his incomparably sweet lips. The vows of the youth were often impulsive, but he knew that his baby wasn't so frivolous. He really didn't care about his disability, he would be happy to take care of him for a lifetime.
He spoke plainly, the affection in his eyes indescribable.
"Baby, I love you." He bit the boy's red lips and confessed.
Zhou Yun Sheng gave him a brilliant smile.
While Xue Lao Si was directing the movers to bring the newly-purchased piano into the living room, Xue Yan was sitting on the sofa fiddling with a laptop, and the boy was hugging his legs, nesting in the crook of his arms, chatting idly. He said something amusing and Xue Yan chuckled, the he printed a kiss on the boy's forehead, their intimate atmosphere even richer than this morning.
"Yan Ye, where do you want the piano?" Xue Lao Si pinched his jaw, feeling his teeth about to rot and fall out from the excessive lovey-dovey-ness. He would've never guessed that the hot tempered King of Hell had such a gentle side.
"Empty out the room next to my study and decorate it into a piano room." Xue Yan responded without lifting his head.
But Zhou Yun Sheng jumped off the sofa and walked up to the piano, fondly stroking it and testing the keys. Xue Yan felt his arms empty, and his expression couldn't help but chill.
Xue Lao Si quickly pushed the boy away from the piano and said, "The elevator is too narrow, we can't move it up that way, so I'll have the movers hang it up from the balcony. Please step aside, be careful not to get bumped."
Zhou Yun Sheng returned to Xue Yan's side and pulled his head in for a quick nibble.
——————-
Xue Zi Xuan waited until eight o'clock before finally seeing Xue Lao Si's car drive up the garden. He immediately walked out onto the porch, staring at the car blankly.
Xue Zi Xuan stepped forward and firmly pulled the boy behind him, then dully said, "It's late, Yan Ye should get home soon."
Xue Yan glanced at him with gloomy eyes.
Zhou Yun Sheng stuck his head out from behind Xie Zi Xuan and waved, "Uncle, see you later." His tone was very proper and well-behaved, but he puckered his lips to blow out a kiss.
Even Xue Lao Si smiled, let alone the love struck Xue Yan. His cold face instantly softened, then he chuckled and waved, "See you tomorrow, remember, you have to join me for breakfast."
When the car drove away, Xue Zi Xuan gripped the boy's wrist and asked, "Didn't I say to stay far away from him? Why won't you listen?"
"But, but the butler told me I had to." Zhou Yun Sheng lowered his head and stammered.
Xue Zi Xuan's anger instantly dissipated, he pulled him into a hug and comforted, "I'll talk to Fu Bo, you won't have to go there anymore."
"Thank you, big brother." Zhou Yun Sheng obediently nodded, then tentatively grabbed the hem of the other man's shirt.
Big brother? This address was so intimate and warm, Xie Zi Xuan couldn't help but chuckle.
Xue Jing Yi was standing at her window, staring at the two figures almost glued together in the darkness, her face twisted in chilling hatred.
That night, Xue Zi Xuan and Xue Rui had a fierce quarrel, and the two of them walked out the door with livid expressions. Zhou Yun Sheng was not interested in listening to the contents of their quarrel, so he went to bed early.
Xue Zi Xuan was powerless to stop Xue Yan from taking the boy away, because his father was the culprit who'd sold the boy off in the first place. He was made profoundly aware of his own incompetence in the things that really mattered, and became more and more uncommunicative, sitting in front of the piano whole days, his dejected and mad eyes alarming.
But when the boy returned home and sat beside him to play the piano together, the loneliness and indifference that lingered around him was swept away, and he smiled like a carefree little boy.
Seeing him caring more and more about the boy each day, clearly deeply attached, Xue Jing Yi's heart twisted in distress.
