Chapter 34 - Lethal For You

Recently, Officer Wang Yul was all Dr Xiao Zeng could think about whenever he had time. Apart from assisting surgeries and his regular practice, he would find himself looking forward to replying to Yul's messages.

They were simple texts like 'Had breakfast?' or 'How's work?' but enough to make him feel warm.

They both had regular sleepovers, sometimes at Zeng's place but mostly at Yul's. It was more convenient that way. It became evident from the increasing sets of clothes they had at each other's apartment along with other necessities in the sets of two.

Zeng liked being at Yul's place; he liked being with Yul. Things were becoming so frighteningly natural between them that Zeng found himself dazing more often than ever. However, that never came in between his work. He was diligent as ever but with his term coming to an end, he must focus more on his practice and studies. But Yul kept invading his mind more and more to a level that even when he was with him, it felt like a dream.

"You are zoning out," Yul said, poking Zeng's cheek, "Again."

Zeng blinked, taking in the place where he was, at Yul's apartment on a regular Saturday evening. He had brought his stuff along with him and had settled it on the table before him. Zeng smiled, "Sorry, just some stress from work." It wasn't like he could tell the truth without cringing. He wasn't a romantic person by nature.

Yul scrunched his nose. "You shouldn't be thinking about work when you're in here. Focus on me." He went to poke Zeng again but the other dodged. Only that Yul was right and Zeng knew better. Why should he be lost in thoughts when the real deal was in front of him?

"Alright, I am focusing on you," Zeng said, raising an eyebrow, giving a tilt to his head. Yul was taken aback receiving all the attention just like that. Also, those plump lips, sharp jawline and collarbone of Zeng when he leaned closer wasn't helping much at the time. He knew the doctor would flex his features whenever he was in for teasing. Seduction, Yul thought, Zeng was a true master of it.

"Dr Xiao, are you flirting with me?" Yul asked, straight to the point and shifted away from the sweet vanilla fragrance invading his senses. There was a limit to his control and Zeng challenged it whenever he wanted.

Zeng shrugged, leaning closer, "What do you think, Officer Wang? Am I flirting?" It should be illegal how the innocent doe eyes could fit so much mischief in them. For emphasis, Zeng bit his lip in a very inappropriate way and that did things to Yul beyond seducing. He was seconds away from pouncing on him when Zeng dropped the sexy mask and burst into laughter.

"Sorry, I can't do this," he said laughing, "I guess, seduction is really not my forte."

Yul looked at him with a blank stare as Zeng continued laughing at himself. The next moment, Zeng was pushed back on the couch and Yul was on top of him, pinning him down by the wrists.

"You seriously have no idea what you do to me, Zeng ge," he said, his voice like a deep growl. Zeng blinked in surprise, either feigning innocence or ignorance. "Oh yeah, what do I do to you, Yul?" he asked, looking him in the eyes.

Words simply couldn't define exactly how Yul felt. Hence, he decided not to use them anymore. His eyes roamed over Zeng's face; ever so perfect even with tousled hair. Large doe eyes staring back at him and every feature of his face was beautiful in every sense. The lips that were urging him to come closer were the most lethal feature and the small mole below the lower one was begging to be kissed.

The entire being of Xiao Zeng was lethal to Wang Yul.

Zeng felt conscious by the way the man on top of him was looking. He felt exposed despite being covered with enough clothes. He gulped and the movement made the sharp eyes above him to travel in that direction before raising back to meet his gaze.

Yul saw the almond eyes getting closer and shutting themselves as he leaned forward. He drew in a breath before diving in.

He was merely an inch away from pressing his lips to Zeng's when his phone decided to ring.

With the moment broken, Zeng opened his eyes, right when Yul shut his own in frustration. Cursing under his breath, Yul got off him to sit upright. Zeng too got up, "I- I will check what to cook tonight." He said without looking at the other and scrambled to the kitchen.

Yul picked up the object of his current hatred and received the call. "Motherfu¢ker!" He greeted the person on the line with so much venom in his voice to drown the entire planet.

"Is this how you treat someone who calls you after a long time, huh? Assh0le, I am older than you," Subin bit back.

"You cockblocked me, Bin! You fu¢king cockblocked me from a fu¢king hundred miles away!" Yul toned his voice down to a whisper, fingers pinching the bridge of his nose. He was so close and today would have been a huge step ahead. But this idiot just had to ruin it.

"Whatever, I bet it's not as important as the news I have," Subin didn't have a clue what his friend was going through. He was too happy to notice, "I got selected by YH agency. Your bro cleared the first step for becoming an idol!"

Yul signed, "Yeah yeah, whatever."

"So mean! Be happy for me. Come on, congratulate me," the voice from the speaker ordered and Yul gave up, "Fine! Congratulations! Happy?"

Subin nodded back in Seoul, a huge smile on his face, "Yeah, very very. Ma is also very happy for me. She's still doubtful about the entire idol thingy but she'll come over. For now, it's celebration time. We are having Bulgogi to celebrate. Anyways, what's on your side? How's work? How's Zeng ge?"

While Yul went busy talking with his friend, Zeng also kept himself busy. Right after he escaped to the kitchen, he had taken deep breaths and hid his mouth that was so near to getting kissed a few moments again.

And most importantly, he was up for it. If the phone call hadn't interrupted them, he was sure they would have gone ahead and done it. Just imagining what would have happened made him fan himself to get rid of the rising heat that pinkened his cheeks.

Wang Yul was lethal for Xiao Zeng.
