C147 – Rounds
Lu Zheng wrapped Zuo Shaoqing’s hand around his lips and kissed it. His heart still palpitated when he thought of the scene where Zuo Shaoqing fell off the city wall. “This time, I was careless and have implicated you.”
Zuo Shaoqing saw the love in Master Lu’s eyes and immediately felt that this injury was worth it. “Master Lu’s words are too foreign. How many people in the capital are not even qualified to be implicated by you?”
Actually, he wanted to say that husband and wife were originally one and the same, but he and Lu Zheng were men, so using the word “husband and wife” was not appropriate.
Lu Zheng turned his body to the side and placed his arms beside Zuo Shaoqing. The two of them looked at each other, nose to nose, and looked at each other in a good way.
Zuo Shaoqing’s heart was beating like a drum. His Adam’s apple rolled up and down a few times and he felt a suffocating feeling coming from his chest. He did not need Lu Zheng to do anything. He could feel his body slowly warming up.
It was impossible for normal men to not have thoughts when compared to the person they loved all night long. Although Zuo Shaoqing was still young, he was definitely a real man.
However, Lu Zheng abnormally adhered to his pre-nuptial etiquette. Even when the two of them were in high spirits, they never crossed the last line of defense. Zuo Shaoqing initially thought that Lu Zheng thought that he was too young and gradually realized that this was Lu Zheng’s respect for him.
“Master Lu...” Zuo Shaoqing’s throat felt itchy, and his voice sounded a bit hoarse.
“Mm...” Lu Zheng answered him from the nose. His body kissed the tip of his nose, then the corner of his mouth, then his cheek, and then he slowly moved his bright red lips to Lu Zheng’s lips.
A warm feeling spread from their lips. Zuo Shaoqing groaned and could not help but reach out his hands to grab Lu Zheng’s neck to press his head down.
Lu Zheng’s heart was beating uncontrollably. The idea of kissing him and hugging him was like overgrown grass, it made him feel like he was suffocating.
He couldn’t explain why he was so insistent on not eating everything, but he felt that such a sacred first time should happen on their wedding night, like any couple, from the knot to the wine to the tantalizing gift of Dunlun.
This was his beloved daughter, his wife. It was worth it for him to treat her in the best and most respectful manner, but... It was too much to collect interest before nightfall.
The two of them intertwined their necks, their burning lips and tongues couldn’t wait to become one, never to be separated. Colourless saliva dripped down from the corner of their mouths.
The two of them felt their bodies heat up. Even though their skin did not touch each other, they could still feel a restless aura coming from each other’s bodies.
Zuo Shaoqing slid his palm along Lu Zheng’s collar and rubbed his chest. His finger brushed against a certain part of his chest that made a man’s heart itch.
In those years in his previous life, although he hadn’t learned any experience in serving men, he had experienced it himself. He knew which parts of a man’s body were the most sensitive, and he knew what a man wanted.
Lu Zheng was more moved by his touch. He deepened the kiss without any hesitation, as if he really wanted to swallow the person whole.
“Ugh... It hurts...” Zuo Shaoqing felt his tongue being sucked numb. The root of his tongue was throbbing, but he couldn’t bear to part with this kind of sweet pain.
While Zuo Shaoqing was rebreathing, Lu Zheng repeatedly kissed his ear and neck, especially the scar that had just formed on his neck.
When the two of them knew that they wouldn’t be able to control themselves if they kissed again, Lu Zheng let Zuo Shaoqing go. Zuo Shaoqing was still wounded, no matter how fierce he was, he would not choose this opportunity to make a move.
“Are you training your arm strength?” Zuo Shaoqing calculated the time. From the moment the two of them looked at each other, at least an incense stick of time had passed.
Lu Zheng turned over and lay down. He stretched out his arm for Zuo Shaoqing to rest on. He whispered in his ear, “You will see how strong I am in the future.”
The two of them seemed to like the feeling of their lips and tongues intersecting. Even if a fire was burning in their hearts, they were in no hurry to see each other naked.
When it was hard to part, a voice suddenly came from outside, “Master, the old mistress has come.”
Zuo Shaoqing pushed the man away without caring about the wounds on his body. He wrapped himself in the blanket and fell onto the bed while kicking Wu Tie off the bed.
His quick reaction made Master Lu, who was immersed in enjoyment, unable to react. When they came into contact with the cold ground, Master Lu looked at the youth who was wrapped into a cocoon on the bed with a dark face. It was funny and infuriating.
He shouted, “Come in!” He then stood up and put on his outer coat, going up to her with a serious expression.
“Mom, it’s so late, why aren’t you sleeping?” Master Lu asked in an unfriendly tone.
The madame’s thoughts were extremely clear. She knew that she had come at the wrong time the moment she heard her son’s tone. However... She didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with disturbing her son. She just pushed him away and continued walking in, “It’s still early. I haven’t seen Shao Qing all day, let’s see if he’s alright.”
Zuo Shaoqing only revealed his head as he smiled awkwardly on the bed. It was not that he did not want to get up, but his body was still in an excited state and was not fit to appear in front of the madame.
“Mother...” Zuo Shaoqing cried out in anticipation and then looked to the side at Lu Zheng for help.
“Yo, what’s going on here?” The old mistress looked at the small table on the floor and the pieces scattered on the bed. Of course, she didn’t ignore Zuo Shaoqing’s messy hair and abnormal expression.
She stealthily glanced at her son, but she didn’t expect that her usually cold son could be so relaxed in bed.
“We were playing chess!” Zuo Shaoqing was afraid that she was going to go astray, so he quickly replied in all seriousness.
The old mistress’ meaning was unclear. “Oh...” He said, “It’s good to play chess, but... I say, Shao Qing, is this bed’s chess piece not going to hit people?”
Zuo Shaoqing’s face instantly turned as red as a cooked prawn. “Nothing... No, I accidentally dropped the chessboard.”
“I understand.” The old mistress walked over happily and said without batting an eyelid, “Next time, I’ll play a few games with my wife. Zhuo is not home all year round and has not had anyone play chess with me for a long time.”
Zuo Shaoqing nodded quickly and noticed that his body condition had returned to normal. He sat up slowly and asked with a red face, “Is there something mother wants?” He didn’t believe that the madame came in the middle of the night just to take a look at him.
It would be more accurate to say that it was a rounds, but Zuo Shaoqing did not ignore the curiosity in the madame’s eyes.
Maid Zhong immediately came in with a box. The old lady passed the opened box to Zuo Shaoqing and said, “This is the blueprint of this courtyard, clean it up when you have nothing to do, you can’t stay so cold and quiet like a monk living in seclusion.”
Zuo Shaoqing was a bit moved. He knew that the madame’s words meant that he was going to manage the yard. He glanced at Lu Zheng and saw that he nodded before accepting the goods. He smiled and said, “Mother, don’t worry. I will take care of it.”
Lu Zheng stood at the side with his arms crossed. From the beginning to the end, he didn’t participate in the conversation between the two, he only watched with gentleness in his eyes.
These were the two most important people in his life. If the madame could not accept Zuo Shaoqing as her daughter-in-law, he would regret it even if he could stay with Zuo Shaoqing till the end of his life.
There was nothing more blissful than the happiness of a family.
“Alright then, you guys continue with your work. As an old woman, I can’t bear to stay up late.” After saying so, the madame blinked and patted her son on the shoulder as she turned around. The meaning in her words was ambiguous no matter how one looked at it.
Zuo Shaoqing also heard the ridicule in her simple sentence. His face was red all the way down to his neck, causing Lu Zheng, who had inadvertently caught a glimpse of this beautiful scene, to darken his eyes.
