CH 18

Xia Yuanhang slowly opened his eyes, and his gaze touched a snow-white back with deep and shallow red marks. He was startled for a moment, rubbing his forehead, which was painful after a hangover and excessive lust before sitting up. Finally, he could see clearly the person who was lying next to him and still asleep.

Liang Xincheng’s sleeping posture was very unsteady; he shrank in the corner of the bed with his eyebrows frowning, which was an extremely insecure expression.

The memories of last night instantly flooded Xia Yuanhang’s mind and even every detail was clearly audible. The most impactful of all those blood-curdling images was Liang Xincheng’s sultry expression when he kept moaning under him. Xia Yuanhang didn’t even dare to think about it too much. He got out of bed in a panic, picked up the clothes on the ground and went into the bathroom.

When the hot water poured down, the chaotic brain gradually became clear. All the pictures were strung into a line; it was Liang Xincheng who took the initiative to lean over and kiss him. Xia Yuanhang frowned slightly and then sighed helplessly after a while.

Even if Liang Xincheng did it intentionally, he was still an accomplice after all; he was still the one who took advantage, so he also had an inescapable responsibility.

When Xia Yuanhang finished taking a shower and changed his clothes, he walked out of the bathroom to see Liang Xincheng was already awake and was sitting on the bed in a daze. The quilt slid to his waist, revealing his thin body full of fierce marks. Xia Yuanhang subconsciously turned his gaze away. Liang Xincheng raised his eyes to him, his eyes flickered but he didn’t say anything. He lifted the quilt and got out of bed, and went into the bathroom naked.

Someone came to ring the doorbell of the room. After hesitating, Xia Yuanhang walked to the door and took a look outside. It was Liang Xincheng’s assistant. He opened the door directly. The smile on the little assistant’s face froze at the corner of her mouth as she swallowed the ‘Good morning’ abruptly. Xia Yuanhang explained embarrassedly: “He is still taking a shower.”

“Oh, oh, I just want to remind him to hurry up, or he will miss the plane. I will help him take his luggage down first. The car has arrived.”

Xia Yuanhang nodded and let the other party in.

The little assistant glanced at the messy sheets and clothes thrown on the ground, not daring to think anything about it. She quickly helped Liang Xincheng organize his luggage, and finally left Xia Yuanhang with the sentence “Please tell him about this once he finished taking a shower in a while”, and left as if fleeing.

Half an hour later, when Liang Xincheng came out of the shower, Xia Yuanhang was already fully dressed and was standing by the door of the room, scrolling through his phone absent-mindedly. Liang Xincheng wiped his hair and smiled at him: “I thought you must have left.”

Xia Yuanhang coughed softly: “Your assistant came just now and urged you to move faster. She has already helped you pack your bags and go down first.”

“I know, I’ll go down in a while… How about you? Are you going back today?”

“En.”

He came here to find his gambler father. Now that his father had run away and he did something he shouldn’t do in a daze, he was really not in the mood to stay any longer.

“Have you bought the plane ticket?”

“Just booked it on my phone, this morning’s flight.”

“Then we are the same class ah, do you want to go with my car?”

Xia Yuanhang nodded after hesitating. Saying no at this time was just deception, which was meaningless.

They tacitly didn’t mention what happened last night and ended this non-embarrassing conversation.

Liang Xincheng packed his carry-on luggage, and the two went downstairs together.

It was too late for breakfast, so the assistant bought bread and milk for them. After going downstairs, they got in the car and rushed to the airport.

The two people in the car remained silent and no one spoke. The little assistant noticed the weird and subtle atmosphere between them; it made her worried but she didn’t dare to ask more. Liu Fan had already sent a WeChat asking Liang Xincheng: “Xia Yuanhang went to Macau? In your room early in the morning?”

“Did Xiaoqian tell you? You knew it pretty quickly.”

“What’s going on with you guys? Didn’t you just tear your faces off? What is the meaning of this again and again?”

“Nothing, just happened to run into him. Don’t worry, I won’t cause you any trouble.”

Liang Xincheng didn’t want to say more. What he would do in the future, he didn’t even know himself. Before crossing that line, he could have thousands of ways to hide his thoughts, but what about now?

There were many fans outside the airport who came to see them. As soon as the car stopped, the little girls gathered around.

Most of these people were Liang Xincheng’s fans; Xia Yuanhang came here for a private trip and bought the tickets at the last minute. Not many people knew about it, so when they saw him and Liang Xincheng get off the car together, everyone was overjoyed.

They walked into the airport one after another, with no expressions on their faces. Liang Xincheng, who had always been very kind to fans, was no longer in the mood for business. His body was not very comfortable and his heart was even more empty.

Obviously the physical distance was too close to be closer, but it seemed to push people farther. He couldn’t guess what Xia Yuanhang would think about what happened last night, but it was obvious that Xia Yuanhang was avoiding it. He could only do the same; treating it like it never happened

Liang Xincheng’s mind was in a daze. There were fans rushing up behind him, wanting to give him a gift but Liang Xincheng didn’t react and was instead pushed by the overexcited fans so that he staggered under his feet and fell forward.

The assistant who followed behind him took a step back and didn’t hold him back. Amidst the exclamation of the fans around him, Xia Yuanhang who was walking in front turned around to catch him. Liang Xincheng looked at Xia Yuanhang with some confusion, and Xia Yuanhang supported him to stand still. Noticing that his face looked pale, he subconsciously raised his hand to touch his forehead.

The hot temperature made Xia Yuanhang startled. Liang Xincheng backed away and smiled at him: “It’s okay.”

After the security check was completed and entering the waiting room, Xia Yuanhang frowned and asked Liang Xincheng: “You have a fever and you don’t know it?”

Liang Xincheng said indifferently, “It doesn’t matter, just get some sleep and you’ll be fine.”

The assistant hurriedly went to look through the bag, then shook his head helplessly: “I forgot to bring the medicine when I came a few days ago..”

Xia Yuanhang was very unhappy. He seemed to have a fire in his heart, but he didn’t know to whom he was going to vent. He felt like Liang Xincheng was being bullied by him. He could only pretend that he didn’t care about anything, but what could he do? Was he responsible? Was Liang Xincheng an unmarried young woman who needed him to be responsible?

“It’s really all right, I just didn’t sleep well last night. Iust rest for a while and I’ll be fine.”

Xia Yuanhang instantly couldn’t say anything. Liang Xincheng shook his head, found a place to sit down, pulled down the hat on his head to cover his eyes, and leaned wearily into the back of the chair.

“I’ll get him some hot water, please take care of him.”

The little assistant took the kettle to fetch water and Xia Yuanhang stood there. Looking at Liang Xincheng, who was drooping his head and almost shrinking into his big jacket, his heart was even more blocked. He shouldn’t have come here to find someone, and shouldn’t have drunk with Liang Xincheng, whom he didn’t know well, let alone be seduced by him.

But it was useless to say anything now. He was the one who bullied that person, no amount of excuses could change this fact.
