It was already winter in November, and it was raining heavily outside. However, Xie Yao could clearly sense the restlessness of spring, as if something was gradually boiling.

His hand, which did not belong to him, was tightly interlocked with the other person’s, fitting perfectly. The other person’s palm was very hot, and Xie Yao felt that the temperature was a bit too hot, spreading to the tip of his heart.

“You…”

Jiang Song confessed to him.

Xie Yao subconsciously felt that this was a lot of information, his mind went blank, and he didn’t know how to react. He wanted to pull his hand out, but before he could say a word, he was stopped.

Jiang Song’s right hand was still holding Xie Yao’s neck, as if he was holding the lifeline of a kitten, tightly holding onto the other person’s hand.

The other hand was deeply embedded in between the other person’s fingers, grabbing the slightly resisting kitten’s paw and pressing it against his own chest.

Thump, thump…

Xie Yao’s fingertips lightly pressed on his pulse at the side of his neck, and the clear sound of his heartbeat jumped under the concentrated energy and quiet environment.

Jiang Song did not deliberately lean in to give pressure, he just brought his own heartbeat to the other person. His voice was very low, as if resonating with the heartbeat.

“Listen, we both have feelings.”

When he said this, both of them could feel each other’s heartbeats speeding up. The strange feeling made their scalp numb, their faces flushed, and they didn’t know how to describe it.

Xie Yao’s five fingers, which were being held, tightened, and his fingertips turned white because of the force.

The hand that Jiang Song was holding felt pain from the knuckles being squeezed, but he had been smiling, even his eyes were smiling.

Clearly, his facial features were cold and hard, but it was like a mountain range covered in snow, welcoming the first signs of spring.

“I like you.” Jiang Song started repeating.

“I like you.”

…

The word “like” echoed in their ears, gently and clearly touching Xie Yao’s eardrums and chest.”

The door was knocked, then opened, and emotions spilled out like honey.

Xie Yao suddenly spoke, “Very sweet.”

Jiang Song’s gaze never left Xie Yao’s eyes, but the latter turned his head after finishing the sentence.

Then he withdrew his hand, and the warmth left Jiang Song’s chest. He hadn’t had time to feel the emptiness in his chest when the next moment, the little kitten pounced on Xie Yao.

His chest suddenly filled up as Xie Yao hugged him.

The little kitten purred in his ear.

“Very sweet. What I mean is, I like you too.”

City A has abundant rainfall throughout the year. Although it rarely rains in winter, when it does, it pours all night long.

Xie Yao thought he would have trouble sleeping, but unexpectedly, he quickly fell into a deep sleep, listening to the sound of rain outside his window.

In his dream, his heart seemed to be beating faster.

The hotel room was well-heated. Jiang Song had been unable to sleep until dawn, his swollen emotions filling his entire body, making it impossible for him to sleep.

At three in the morning, the sound of water splashing in the bathroom mixed with the sound of rain outside.

Ten minutes later, Jiang Song walked out of the bathroom, feeling cold all over his body, and walked straight out of his room.

Only the front door at the entrance required a password; the locks on the two rooms inside were ordinary.

Jiang Song, wearing a bathrobe, stood in front of Xie Yao’s door, lit up his phone screen, and the white light shone on his face. He felt a little abnormal when he looked at the time on it.

And then the pervert placed his hand on the doorknob of his newly-made boyfriend’s door and opened it with a push.

His eyebrows rose in excitement, but he was cautious and restrained when sneaking into the other person’s room.

The room was pitch black, with only a dim night light barely illuminating the sharp edges of the bedside table.

Jiang Song appeared in the darkness in front of Xie Yao’s bed, groping his way through. He didn’t want to startle the other person who was already fast asleep, so he covered his phone and didn’t move.

Xie Yao on the bed breathed steadily, sound asleep. His breathing was light and ticklish to Jiang Song’s ears in the silent environment.

When they confessed their feelings to each other face to face, the little friend’s expression and reaction were so cute that it made Jiang Song’s heart skip a beat. At that time, all he could think of was “I want to kiss him.”

But he knew that it would definitely scare him, so Jiang Song had to resist his impulses. However, the night always makes people’s inner desires grow stronger.

If it were daytime and Xie Yao was awake, he would definitely have noticed Jiang Song standing at the bedside, his Adam’s apple rolling twice, his gaze looking at him with intense heat, as if an iceberg had turned into a volcano.

In the end, Jiang Song couldn’t resist any longer and slowly leaned down, his hands carefully supporting himself on the edge of the bed.

Xie Yao on the bed had half of his face buried in the covers, and the warm temperature belonging to Jiang Song finally landed on his forehead.

The kiss was gentle, but it lasted a long time, until Jiang Song let out a satisfied exhale.

Finally, he turned on the screen light of his phone, took another look at his boyfriend’s facial features, and tucked the covers tightly around Xie Yao, just like when he came in, before quietly leaving.

The door closed, and the cat on the bed breathed a sigh of relief.

The next day, Xie Yao was awakened by Jiang Song. When he woke up, it was already 9 o’clock in the morning, and the first thing he saw was Jiang Song’s enlarged face.

His face subconsciously turned red, and his hand reached out from under the covers to touch his forehead, but he stopped himself.

Thinking back to the kiss from the half-awake state last night, Xie Yao’s face temperature began to rise.

“Get up, boyfriend.”

Jiang Song was in high spirits when good things happened. He dressed neatly and went to Xie Yao’s room to provide wake-up service. When he called him “boyfriend,” there was a hint of flirtation in his tone.

On the first day of their confirmed relationship, Xie Yao wished he could crawl back into bed and pretend he hadn’t woken up. Who would have thought that after meeting just yesterday, they had already kissed today!

Finally, with Jiang Song’s patient urging, Xie Yao got up efficiently. After getting up, he still washed his face, brushed his teeth, and fixed his hair, but now toothpaste and water were prepared by his boyfriend. After washing his face, his boyfriend’s fingers would pinch his face that was still wet with water, and he would messily fix his hair while the other person carefully smoothed down his stray strands.

In short, the biggest difference between two people’s mornings and one person’s morning is that it takes twice as long for two people to get ready. Just the routine of washing up alone, Xie Yao was forced to waste half an hour in Jiang Song’s teasing.

As Xie Yao walked out the door, he touched his hot face and thought that at least he wouldn’t have a cold face in winter when he was in a relationship. It was still raining outside, but it was a light rain. The temperature in A city had dropped again due to this rain that had lasted all night.

Jiang Song picked out a very tender-looking down jacket from the bags he had brought yesterday, and put it on Xie Yao before they left. It covered him from head to knee, and Xie Yao felt like he wasn’t even cold when he was outside in the rain and wind.

The two of them left the hotel lobby shoulder to shoulder, leaving a sticky and affectionate back view for the receptionist. Just as they stepped outside, Jiang Song naturally put his hand in Xie Yao’s coat pocket and held his warm hand.

Xie Yao blushed.

“I called Manager Chen to pick us up. He’ll be here in two minutes.”

With only two days left until the KPL finals, Xie Yao had always been a fan of SUS. As Jiang Song was the current boss of SUS, he immediately decided to take his new boyfriend to visit and give the players a chance to meet their new boss.

Manager Chen’s license plate was remembered by Xie Yao. On the day he arrived, many people pressed his head and made him memorize it.

As soon as the car arrived downstairs at the hotel, they noticed it. Then they walked over, rubbing against each other. Jiang Song opened the car door for Xie Yao and let him get in.

After everyone got into the car, Manager Chen didn’t start immediately. Instead, he turned around and handed Xie Yao a large red invitation.

Xie Yao took it with surprise. “Are you getting married?”

“Yeah,” Manager Chen grunted. “After the competition in a few days, when I have time, I’ll let you two meet.”

“Okay,” Xie Yao nodded in agreement.

Before Manager Chen had even turned his head back, he saw an annoying hand snatch the invitation from Xie Yao.

Jiang Song laughed at Manager Chen. “We’re family, one invitation is enough. Take it back.”

Before Manager Chen could react, Xie Yao’s ear turned red.

Then, Manager Chen widened his eyes and exclaimed, “Fuck, you old beast!”

He shook his hand and pointed at Jiang Song, his eyes darting between the two of them. He was so angry that he almost fainted on the spot.

Xie Yao was startled. “What’s wrong?” He turned to Jiang Song for help.

Jiang Song gently patted his hand.

“As you can see, we’re already together. You can keep your well wishes to yourself. I’m in a hurry, so let’s go.”

Manager Chen was so angry that he almost had a heart attack from Jiang Song’s attitude. It took him a while to say, “Get out!”

On the way to the SUS base, Manager Chen sulked and stomped in front, while Jiang Song and Xie Yao were still talking sweetly to each other in the back seat. When they arrived at the SUS base, Manager Chen still had a sour face and didn’t look happy.

Jiang Song couldn’t stand his dog-like temperament, so she got off the car and acted as if he didn’t exist, pulling Xie Yao along with him.

As they reached the entrance, Jiang Song swiped his face and pulled out an ID card from his pocket, placing it in Xie Yao’s hand.

Xie Yao immediately saw the words “Family Member ID” and felt the object in his hand getting hot.

“The family member ID that I prepared for you earlier is finally in your hands now. Let’s go in.”

Jiang Song spoke in a casual tone, as if he was talking about a neighbor who bought buns for three yuan each. Xie Yao followed closely beside him, holding the ID card in his hand, his chin buried in the collar of his down jacket, and his ears turning red.

“Why did your hands get cold as soon as you got off the car?”

Jiang Song held Xie Yao’s hand, frowning as he covered his hand with him. He then placed his other hand on his face, feeling the warmth.

“I’m not cold. It’s just that my hands are a bit cold.”

Although the schedule of e-sports players was very abnormal, with it being 10:30 at the moment, there were still people around. Some had recognized Jiang Song and looked over, their faces showing shock, their mouths wide enough to swallow an elephant.

“Holy shit, it’s the sister-in-law!”

A Hundred rubbed his eyes as he walked to the entrance, holding a cup of soy milk in his hand. The oil stick in his mouth had fallen onto the ground.
