Mr. Qin has made progress.

He knows how to tease people now.

Thanks to Qin Yiheng, Chu Yi’s mind was full of Qin Yiheng’s voice for the rest of the drive.

“Don’t you want negative distance, don’t you want negative distance, don’t you want negative distance…”

He even began to think shamefully, since Qin Yiheng knows that his insomnia can be cured by negative distance, will Qin Yiheng have negative distance with him every day while they’re in City Q?

If not.

Should he give a little tiny hint?

Like tossing around and turning about, unable to sleep.

The bed is so soft.

Yet he’s so hard.

He can do it.

He can stand it.

He likes playing with tie clips.

Qin, Yi, Heng~

“Mr. Qin, we’re here.” The driver’s voice pulled Chu Yi out of his fantasy.

Chu Yi pulled his hood, then heard Qin Yiheng say to the driver, “Thank you.”

The wind in City Q tonight was more intense than last night. After Qin Yiheng opened the door, he stood aside and waited for Chu Yi to get off.

Chu Yi zipped his coat to the top. When he got out of the door, he saw Qin Yiheng standing by the car with his hand stretched out. Chu Yi very naturally put his hand on top of his and then stood up.

“You look like you’re inviting me to a dance.”

Qin Yiheng walked around behind Chu Yi, closed the door, and asked, “You know how to dance?”

Chu Yi shook his head, “No.”

Qin Yiheng, “Great, I don’t either.”

Chu Yi laughed.

If you don’t know then you don’t know, what do you mean great.

The restaurant Qin Yiheng reserved is next to the theater. After a simple meal, it was pretty much time.

The tickets Xu Jing bought were in the middle of the third row. It was neither near nor far, the view was very good.

The two men sat down and all the lights in the theater dimmed.

Before coming to City Q, Chu Yi had seen the brief introduction of this play through netizens.

It’s about the turbulence in City Q during the period of the Republic of China, as well as the little protagonist’s love and family. Together with the lighting and animation of the set, many people say it’s worth seeing and it will definitely be worthwhile.

He took notice of this play at that time entirely because the two protagonists are boys.

However, he forgot about it and didn’t put it on his mind, because he felt that Qin Yiheng wasn’t interested in this kind of play in which romance accounted for half of it.

Besides, he himself wasn’t very interested.

In any case, since netizens say it’s good, why care about what the play is about during a date?

What you should care about is the one next to you.

But right now, the one next to Chu Yi was looking at his phone.

It was probably about work. Qin Yiheng seemed a little busy. The play had been going on for more than ten minutes, and Qin Yiheng had also been looking down at his phone for more than ten minutes.

In these ten minutes, Chu Yi paid attention to the plot on the stage and Qin Yiheng’s movements at the same time.

Finally, at the sound of an explosion on the stage, Qin Yiheng raised his head.

“Sorry, I was just reading some emails.” Qin Yiheng whispered.

Chu Yi shook his head, “It’s okay.”

There was another explosion on the stage, followed by animation and smoke to simulate the effect of the collapse of the city wall.

Just as Chu Yi put his attention on the stage, his hand was suddenly held.

Chu Yi looked down and saw Qin Yiheng holding his hand.

“Are you cold?” Qin Yiheng asked him.

Chu Yi shook his head, “No.”

Qin Yiheng, “Your hands are a little cold.”

After Qin Yiheng said this, the theater suddenly quieted down.

Neither crow nor sparrow could be heard[1], so Chu Yi didn’t feel comfortable speaking. Taking advantage that it was during a less important part, he spread out Qin Yiheng’s hand and wrote on his palm.

It’s.

Your.

Hand.

That’s.

Hot.

He finished writing slowly, then raised his head and looked at Qin Yiheng, he asked with his eyes, you got it?

Qin Yiheng also copied him, spread out his hand, and wrote on the palm of his hand.

I.

Got.

It.

Chu Yi chuckled.

There was another explosion on the stage. But this time, the explosion was very close, probably to give the audience a closer feel. The smoke on the stage even spread to the first row.

It was so sudden that the audience in the first row exclaimed in unison and fell back together.

At the same time, the male protagonist standing on the ruins shouted, “A-Qing, lower your head.”

A-Qing was the second male lead, he was standing on the edge of the stage.

A-Qing squatted down immediately after receiving the signal from the male protagonist. At this time, the spear in the male protagonist’s hand flew toward the audience.

This interaction was more successful than the smoke. Chu Yi seemed to be caught in it. When the spear came to his eyes, he even dodged.

But unfortunately, Qin Yiheng was looking at his phone again and had no chance to experience such a thrilling scene.

There was chaos on the stage again. Chu Yi leaned closer to Qin Yiheng and asked, “Still not done yet?”

Qin Yiheng made a few more movements with his fingers on his phone and then forwarded the email. Then he turned off his phone and put it in his pocket, “Done.”

The male protagonist shouted again. Chu Yi looked over and saw that he had another spear in his hand.

Chu Yi had experience, thinking that Qin Yiheng had not seen it yet, the moment when the spear came, Chu Yi quickly stabbed Qin Yiheng with his elbow, “Look, look.”

There was a rope hanging from the spear, added with sound effects and the projection, it flew out with a shoo.

Chu Yi turned to look at Qin Yiheng but saw that he stared at the spear without panic and quietly watched it fly over his head.

Chu Yi, “…”

Was it that uninteresting?

When Chu Yi snapped out of it, he saw a couple in the front row that was quite frightened. The smaller boy had been held in his arms by the bigger boy.

“Scared the hell out of me.”

“Don’t be scared, don’t be scared.”

The bigger boy patted the smaller boy on the shoulder to comfort him.

Chu Yi raised his eyebrows and continued to watch the play.

What Chu Yi saw, Qin Yiheng naturally saw as well.

It just so happened that from his angle, he could see the smaller boy’s aggrieved expression as he pouted at the bigger boy while the bigger boy comforted and kissed the smaller boy’s forehead.

Qin Yiheng couldn’t help turning his head, stared at Chu Yi’s lips, then raised his eyes and stared at Chu Yi’s forehead.

“What just flew over?” Qin Yiheng asked quietly.

“A spear.” Chu Yi explained, “From the stage.”

Qin Yiheng glanced at the stage and asked, “Are there any more?”

Chu Yi shook his head, “Probably not, it’s already the next scene. This scene is already cleared away.”

Qin Yiheng asked again, “Are you scared?”

Chu Yi laughed, “What’s there to be scared of?”

Qin Yiheng looked at Chu Yi’s forehead again before finally throwing his eyes back to the stage.

Right, what’s there to be scared of.

Next, the style on the stage has changed a lot. People with discerning eyes would know at a glance that it shifted towards romance now.

Because both male leads were going to the battlefield, the two families decided to let them get married first.

The wedding was extremely festive, as if wanting to express ‘how chaotic the outside world was how lively they had to make it’. No customs were exempted, so they entered the bridal chamber amid noisy cheers.

Just when Chu Yi felt that this scene should end here, the window of the protagonist’s room suddenly lit up.

Then the shadows of the two men were reflected on the white curtain.

The audience immediately uttered another exclamation.

Different from the previous exclamation, this exclamation is more like a holler.

Wow.

Chu Yi also wow-ed along in his mind.

Such big scale.

Although it was just silhouettes, it was enough to make people think. The bigger boy in front who just said “don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid” has now picked up his little boyfriend and covered his eyes.

Chu Yi looked at them, then looked at the stage, and finally couldn’t help but turn his head to look at Qin Yiheng.

Coincidentally, Qin Yiheng also turned to look at him.

At the moment when their eyes met, Qin Yiheng asked Chu Yi, “Can you see this?”

Chu Yi, “I’m an adult.”

Qin Yiheng, “You’re right.”

After this unclear awkward conversation, they turned their attention to the white screen at the same time.

The protagonists were still doing it.

There’s also a drum beating around, it pounded one beat at a time.

This was really exciting.

After a few seconds, Qin Yiheng spoke again.

He said, “What position is this?”

Chu Yi looked at the unfamiliar position on the stage, his throat seemed to be stuck, “I don’t know.”

Qin Yiheng asked Chu Yi, “Wanna try?”

Although only Chu Yi could hear what Qin Yiheng said, Chu Yi was still worried.

Just like when you’re wearing headphones to look at some unmentionable things, you would always be worried about the sound leaking.

To him, Qin Yiheng seemed to be broadcasting these words with a speaker.

Chu Yi, do you want to make love with me in this position!

Chu Yi’s throat was extremely dry, he was so embarrassed that he didn’t know how to speak.

Qin Yiheng waited for a while. Before Chu Yi answered, he answered it himself.

Qin Yiheng, “I want to try.”

Chu Yi, “…”

Qin Yiheng, “It doesn’t seem bad.”

Chu Yi, “…”

Qin Yiheng, “Let’s try it tonight?”

Chu Yi, “…”

Gege, can you stop talking.

Chu Yi shrank back and replied even quieter, “Mn.”

Who knows how long it took, but after this exciting segment finally passed, Chu Yi’s hand, which had just been called cold, gradually became hot.

The plot following that was full of positive energy.

There was less love and more feelings.

Warming, surging, impassioning.

Finally, the two protagonists got a happy ending.

The curtain closed perfectly. In the end, the protagonists and supporting actors held hands and bowed to the audience. Then the audience gave them a fierce applause.

This one-and-a-half-hour relationship was over just like this.

When Chu Yi came out of the theater, he raised his head and stretched.

Qin Yiheng asked Chu Yi, “Tired?”

Chu Yi shook his head, “I’m alright.”

About what’s to come up next, Chu Yi didn’t ask, and Qin Yiheng didn’t say either.

It was only a quarter past eight, but they tacitly agreed that there were no other plans for the evening.

This kind of tacit understanding particularly scratched Chu Yi’s heart.

Especially after seeing the scenes of the bridal chamber in the play.

Ever since he married Qin Yiheng, Chu Yi himself can feel that he himself has changed.

He used to have no interest in what happened in bed. He was indifferent and even doubted whether he was sexually indifferent.

But he’s now sure that he isn’t.

He does have desires and wants. What he desires is Qin Yiheng, and what he wants is Qin Yiheng. He not only thinks about it at night, but also in daytime.

Even now with Qin Yiheng next to him, his imaginations can run wild.

His mind was full of those silhouettes just now.

Before getting in the car, he even pretended to struggle a little. He comforted himself like this: he didn’t ask if they had any plans for the evening because Qin Yiheng went to bed late yesterday and got up early today. He was caring about his husband and wanted him to go back and head to bed early. Since he has to work tomorrow and can be energized from sleeping early.

But after getting in the car, as soon as Qin Yiheng approached him, his self-consolation turned completely useless.

He takes it back, he’s cheap, he wants Qin Yiheng’s body.

Right now, immediately, straight away.

That’s right, he’s just a perverted baby right now.

He has changed.

The city past 8 finally had less traffic, not even ten minutes later, the car stopped at the ground floor of the hotel.

They got out of the car, went upstairs together, got out of the elevator, and took another turn. Chu Yi saw Xu Jing waiting at the door of the room.

Xu Jing had some bags in his hands. When he saw Qin Yiheng and Chu Yi, he quickly came over with a smile and handed it to Qin Yiheng.

Xu Jing, “President Qin, the things you wanted.”

Qin Yiheng nodded and received it.

Xu Jing said respectfully, “President Qin and Mr. Chu both have an early rest, please call me if anything happens.”

Qin Yiheng, “Okay.”

Chu Yi waved goodbye to Xu Jing, “You have an early rest too.”

Xu Jing, “Yes.”

Qin Yiheng opened the door with the room card and handed the bags to Chu Yi.

Chu Yi answered, “What is it?”

Qin Yiheng, “It’s best to wear a suit for tomorrow’s occasion. I bought it for you.”

Chu Yi let out an “oh”.

When the two entered the living room, Chu Yi took out the clothes from the bags, “Is it my size?”

Qin Yiheng nodded, “Yes.”

Chu Yi, “So you know my size?”

Qin Yiheng, “I measured it.”

Chu Yi wondered, “When did you measure it?”

“Last night.” Qin Yiheng said, “With my hands.”

Chu Yi lowered his head and made an “oh” sound.

He’s finished. Now whatever Qin Yiheng says sounds weird to him.

He coughed in his heart, “How can it be accurate if you measured it with your hands?”

Qin Yiheng raised his chin, “Try it.”

Xu Jing gave them several bags, including clothes, trousers, shoes, shirts, and there was also a small bag.

Chu Yi thought the small bag contained a tie, but when he took out the suit just now, the tie was put in the suit bag.

Chu Yi became curious and took over the bag that was put alone.

It was a familiar little bag. When he took it seriously in his hand, he remembered where the sense of familiarity came from.

“Mn?” Chu Yi took out the box in the bag and put it in front of Qin Yiheng, “Tie clip?”

Qin Yiheng put the water down, “Mn.”

Chu Yi, “Why did you buy this for me too?”

Qin Yiheng said, “I’ll wear it tomorrow, and so you will.”

Chu Yi was delighted, “Okay then.”

With that, Chu Yi opened the box.

“Ah?” Chu Yi took out the tie clip and looked at Qin Yiheng with a puzzled expression.

The tie clip in his hand is the exact same one as the one he gave Qin Yi Heng yesterday.

Qin Yiheng nodded, “We’ll wear the same one.”

Chu Yi first laughed, then thought about it from Qin Yiheng’s perspective, then laughed again.

That’s right, they are partners. They should wear matching things.

Grabbing the tie clip in his hand, he picked up the rest of the bag and headed for the bedroom, “I’ll go try it on.”

Then he disappeared from the corridor between the bedroom and living room.

Maybe it’s because he wasn’t very sensitive to love, so he always realized this kind of thing afterwards. Only when he left the living room, did Chu Yi’s nerve cells gradually sped up.

And did he gradually realize the sweetness of Qin Yiheng wanting to wear the same thing as him.

As Chu Yi thought about this, he began to giggle. He raised his tie clip and shook it under the light.

This tie clip just keeps looking better and better.

If one represents a special tie clip, then two represent a couple’s tie clip.

Chu Yi took back his tie clip, put it on his lips, and gave it a long kiss.

But what Chu Yi didn’t know was that there was a wall at the end of the corridor against the living room. Because the wall was overly even, it looked like a copper-colored mirror at night.

So all his actions, including lifting his tie clip and even hopping about, to finally kissing the item in his hand and his expression with the smile in the corner of his eyes, were all seen by Qin Yiheng.

Qin Yiheng on the other side of the wall touched the cup in his hand and tilted his head.

Obviously, Chu Yi was happy.

And obviously, Chu Yi deliberately avoided showing his happiness to him.

Before Chu Yi opened the door to the bedroom, Qin Yiheng stopped him.

“Chu Yi.”

Qin Yiheng saw Chu Yi stop the action of opening the door in the bronze mirror.

Across a wall, Qin Yiheng said, “Come here.”
