CH 48

Chu Yi is really tired.

It was such a short distance, yet he fell asleep in the car.

In a half-asleep and half-awake state, he seemed to hear Xiao-Chen call Qin Yiheng on the phone. Xiao-Chen said he had picked up Mr. Chu and was now on his way back.

Qin Yiheng replied with an “mn”, which is very much his style.

There was no more sound after that.

Before long, the car arrived at the door. Chu Yi thanked Xiao-Chen, told him to drive slowly, and then entered the house.

Qin Yiheng left a light for him. He tried to keep the noise down, he quickly showered and went to bed. After setting an alarm, he turned off the light.

The room darkened, but Chu Yi heard Qin Yiheng move. Chu Yi whispered, “Are you asleep?”

Qin Yiheng, “No.”

Chu Yi, “Did I wake you up? Or did you not sleep?”

Qin Yiheng, “I haven’t slept.”

Chu Yi licked his lips, “You can’t sleep?”

Qin Yiheng, “Mn.”

Chu Yi thought for a bit, and decided it’s better to explain, “My client needs to use tonight’s design tomorrow morning, so it’s more urgent.”

Qin Yiheng, “Mn.”

Qin Yiheng’s voice was very quiet, which sounded sleepy.

Chu Yi was also sleepy. Since Qin Yiheng was still awake, he moved a bit. He quietly moved to Qin Yiheng’s side.

As expected, with this action, Qin Yiheng also move in follow-up.

Very soon, Qin Yiheng had Chu Yi in his arms.

Chu Yi smiled.

Qin Yiheng put his hand in Chu Yi’s hair, “Why is it wet?”

Chu Yi shook his head and buried his head, “It’s not wet, it’s cold. I blow-dried it.”

Qin Yiheng “ Mn.Do you often work this late?”

Chu Yi shook his head, “Not often.”

Qin Yiheng, “How about I hire a driver for you too, it’s more convenient.”

Chu Yi, “No need, I don’t go out often, I won’t be able to use it much.”

Qin Yiheng, “Write down Xiao-Chen’s phone number tomorrow. Whenever you’re tired in the future, call him to pick you up.”

Chu Yi, “Mn.”

Chu Yi leaned closer in Qin Yiheng’s embrace.

This is nice.

Today, Qin Yiheng has really spoken a lot more.

Chu Yi also got used to this posture and doesn’t feel uncomfortable much.

Just as Chu Yi was about to fall asleep, Qin Yiheng suddenly spoke again.

Qin Yiheng, “I’m going on a business trip tomorrow. I probably won’t be back for more than ten days.”

Chu Yi was confused for half a second before he immediately became lively again. He raised his head, “That long?”

Qin Yiheng, “Mn.”

Chu Yi, “What time are you leaving tomorrow?”

Qin Yiheng, “My flight is past 9.”

Chu Yi was surprised, “So early.”

Suddenly came the news that they will not see each other for more than ten days. Chu Yi was shocked to the point that his mind cleared up.

Before going to bed, he had Qin Yiheng’s stomach illness in mind and even set a 7 a.m alarm to cook Qin Yiheng porridge tomorrow morning.

Now it seems that it won’t be in time.

Chu Yi pushed Qin Yiheng and brought his phone over.

“What’s wrong?” Qin Yiheng asked him.

“Changing the alarm clock,” Chu Yi said. “I’ll get up tomorrow morning and cook you porridge. What time would it be appropriate for me to get up?”

Qin Yiheng smiled and patted him on the head, “There’s no need.”

Chu Yi was very serious, “It’s needed.”

Qin Yiheng said, “No need.”

Chu Yi insisted, “I just want to.”

Qin Yiheng laughed, pressed Chu Yi’s head, and calculated the time, “Then I’ll have breakfast at 7.”

Chu Yi nodded and changed the alarm clock to 6:20.

There was not much time to sleep, so Chu Yi stopped dawdling, put his phone back, got into Qin Yiheng’s arms, and went to sleep.

He didn’t sleep well that night. Maybe because Qin Yiheng said he would go on a business trip before going to bed, he even dreamed that Qin Yiheng couldn’t come back after his business trip.

Either the plane was delayed or the high-speed railway was broken.

It worried Chu Yi to death.

In the dream, his porridge was still waiting for Qin Yiheng to come back to be eaten.

When he was awakened by the alarm, the Qin Yiheng in his dream hadn’t come back yet, and Chu Yi’s porridge had already gone cold.

Chu Yi gave himself a minute in bed before finally returning to reality. He looked at Qin Yiheng beside him and realized that it was only a dream.

Chu Yi was afraid of delaying Qin Yiheng. He hurried downstairs and put the rice and water in the pot before he went back to the bedroom to wash up.

Qin Yiheng woke up when he came out of the bathroom.

Chu Yi just brushed his teeth, feeling refreshed and energetic, he said to Qin Yiheng, who had just got up, “Morning.”

Qin Yiheng smiled, walked to Chu Yi, and rubbed Chu Yi’s hair.

“The porridge is almost ready.” Chu Yi followed Qin Yiheng to the bathroom and stood at the door to look at him. “Should I fry an egg? And add some meat floss?”

Qin Yiheng nodded, “Mn.”

Chu Yi, “Then come down after washing.”

Qin Yiheng looked at Chu Yi through the mirror and called out to Chu Yi when he was about to leave.

“Wait a minute.”

Chu Yi turned back, “What’s wrong?”

Qin Yiheng raised his head and stretched out his hand to tidy the hair he had just messed up, “Go on.”

Chu Yi fried the egg downstairs. When he took out the meat floss and put everything on the table, Qin Yiheng had just come down from upstairs.

Today is also a handsome Qin Yiheng in a suit.

Wrong.

Today is also his handsome husband in a suit.

They ate breakfast in silence. After they were done, Chu Yi put the dishes and utensils into the dishwasher.

When he came out of the kitchen, Chu Yi saw Qin Yiheng sitting on the sofa with a laptop in his hands.

Chu Yi wiped his hands and walked over. He sat down beside Qin Yiheng, leaving some distance between them.

He had a lot of time left before work, and Qin Yiheng was about to leave.

“What time are you leaving?” Chu Yi asked Qin Yiheng as he threw the paper towel into the trash can.

Qin Yiheng downloaded the things he was working on, “It’s still early.”

Chu Yi thought for a moment and said, “I, er, let me take you to the airport.”

Qin Yiheng shook his head, “I already told Xiao-Chen to come.”

Chu Yi felt that Qin Yiheng misunderstood his meaning, “I mean, I’ll go too.”

Qin Yiheng, “Xu Jing will be there too, he’s coming with me for the business trip.”

Chu Yi, “I don’t mean that. I just want to take you to the airport.”

Only then did Qin Yiheng raise his head to look up at Chu Yi.

Chu Yi was afraid of Qin Yiheng saying things like “no need” or “there are already people in the car, there’s no need for an extra one” and so forth. He hurriedly laughed twice and said, “I have nothing to do this morning, and I can’t fall back asleep now anyway so I’m just finding something to do, let me take you to the airport.”

After Chu Yi said this, he laughed dryly twice again.

This reason wasn’t good at all.

No matter how boring someone was, how is sending people to the airport a way to kill time?

Why not read a book quietly instead?

“Okay.” Qin Yiheng suddenly agreed, as if he understood and accepted it, “There’s nothing to do in the car anyway. If you’re there, I won’t be bored.”

Chu Yi nodded and immediately wanted to perform, “I can chat with you.”

Qin Yiheng smiled and agreed, “Yeah.”

Chu Yi raised his eyebrows and breathed a sigh of relief.

He felt that the series of chats they had yesterday was very effective, their relationship did become a little closer.

He also felt that his behavior of begging for sugar was also very effective. At least, Qin Yiheng hasn’t rejected him yet and has been allowing him to do what he wants.

In this way, he can pretend that he’s dating Qin Yiheng.

Not like how they started.

No[1], no[2], no[3], it’s not necessary.

Chu Yi secretly laughed.

Plan successful.

Qin Yiheng continued to do his work. Chu Yi has nothing to do. He took out his phone and tapped into WeChat, he suddenly thought of something.

“Qin Yiheng.” Chu Yi asked, “Then that means you can’t come to my friends’ dinner get-together on Saturday?”

“Right.” Qin Yiheng said, “Sorry, this business trip was just decided yesterday.”

Chu Yi shook his head, “No, no, I don’t mean to blame you.” Chu Yi lowered his head and opened WeChat, “I initially said you might not be free. It’s okay, I’ll talk to them.”

Qin Yiheng thought for a bit, “Wait for me to come back, I’ll treat your friends to dinner.”

Chu Yi nodded, “Sure.”

Then Chu Yi sent a message to the group, explaining that his husband was going on a business trip this weekend and couldn’t come.

With this message, as expected, his classmates send disappointed emojis one after another.

Chu Yi then sent another message saying that his husband said when he comes back from his business trip, he’ll treat everyone to dinner.

Everyone came back to life.

After chatting with his classmates in the group chat for a bit, Chu Yi saw Qin Yiheng close his laptop from the corner of his eye.

He also put away his phone and got ready to stand up, “Leaving?”

Qin Yiheng looked at his watch, “There’s still some time.”

Chu Yi sat at ease again, “Then what should we do now?”

Qin Yiheng looked at him and said, “Let me kiss you.”

Chu Yi paused for several seconds before making an “oh” sound.

Mr. Qin always starts the battle when Chu Yi isn’t prepared.

Without any flirting as a prelude, Qin Yiheng will just start kissing.

He stood up, sat over, pinch Chu Yi’s chin, and kissed him. He did it all in one go.

It was like a parting ceremony. In the beginning, Qin Yiheng’s kiss was very polite.

Why call it polite? He was unable to part with Chu Yi’s upper and lower lips. As if wanting to obtain an ice cream that he needs to eat every day. Since this ice cream is a task, but also must be eaten, yet can’t be wasted, so he can only eat it little by little. He has to taste the tasteless things into his mouth bit by bit, but also has to express that it’s delicious.

Qin Yiheng kept being like this, not entering, which made the ice cream itchy.

“I can’t kiss you for 20 or so days.”

Qin Yiheng suddenly raised his head and said this, and then lowered his head again to kiss him.

Chu Yi felt dizzy.

Oh well.

He’ll take it that Qin Yiheng was flirting with him.

Then gradually, the politeness became less polite.

The ice cream started to melt.

He could also taste the deliciousness.

He can finally take care of his taste buds and stimulate his tongue.

The taste also became strong.

Chu Yi’s breathing became not so smooth, and Qin Yiheng clasped his head stronger and stronger.

The two exchanged breaths, and the atmosphere became different.

The sofa became crowded as they fell on it.

Qin Yiheng held Chu Yi’s hand and pressed it over his head.

Chu Yi realized that Qin Yiheng liked doing this a lot.

Not only that, Qin Yiheng liked everything that could control him.

At night, he also likes to hold him in a position that makes him unable to leave.

Qin Yiheng kissed Chu Yi for a long time before finally raising his head again.

Chu Yi opened his eyes and saw Qin Yiheng look at the watch on his wrist.

The watch was far away, and Chu Yi could not see the time, but Qin Yiheng soon told him.

Qin Yiheng lowered his head and said in a deep voice, “There’s still time. Do you want it?”

Chu Yi already could not bear it any longer, he replied quietly, “I want it.”

Then Chu Yi closed his eyes and heard the familiar rustling sound, and then…

“Oh my god.” There was a sudden noise at the door.

Chu Yi’s mind suddenly cleared up. He grabbed the back of the sofa, got up slightly, and together with Qin Yiheng, they looked towards that noise.

Qin Yiheng’s mother had a bag in her hand and her back towards them.

“Sorry, sorry, I didn’t know, you guys-, I-, sorry, sorry, I’ll go out first.”

Chu Yi, “…”

The door closed again. Qin Yiheng lowered his head and groaned quietly beside Chu Yi’s ear. Then he stood up slowly, put on his pants, picked up the blanket on the side, and covered Chu Yi.

Chu Yi immediately wrapped himself with the blanket.

Just now.

What happened?

Isn’t this…

Way too embarrassing?

So shameful.
