Chapter 93: The hitman’s little koi 7 (part 1/2)
As soon as Pei Lie carried Chen Tong pass the door, he immediately had to put up with Chen Tong’s struggles right after he regained his senses. The great hitman could only speed up his pace, as if fearing that his live treasure will be stolen or coveted by other people, like having wind beneath his feet, only after successfully returning was he willing to let go of his darling.
Chen Tong actually sensed an unspeakably close feeling from Pei Lie, if Pei Lie could patiently explain his identity and their relationship, he would be willing to follow the other party. But the feeling of being forcibly brought away was really unpleasant. Such a fierce and sudden forceful kiss was truly very unacceptable to any normal person as well. Filled with anger and dissatisfaction, the little koi who regained his freedom, swiftly turned around and headed towards the door without uttering a word, as if he couldn’t stand to stay together with Pei Lie for even a moment longer.
The door had unfortunately been locked by Pei Lie the moment he had closed it, Chen Tong twisted the door knob for a long time to no avail, when an ominously unhappy question from Pei Lie rang beside his ears at the same time: “Where do you want to go?”
Chen Tong turned his head around and faintly look at Pei Lie in silence.
In order to conduct an aloof temperament, young master Chen Tong felt that the most important course of action was to talk less. Not much expression could be exposed as well, along with the prerequisite of having the facade of calmness and indifference. Since ancient times, a lot would senselessly but amusingly say that silence leads people to have a higher standing. In addition to, recalling the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas on TV who always looks at the mundane world with indifference. So long as they keep their silence, the other people would profoundly think that they achieved supreme enlightenment at once.
With this line of thought, the character of the little koi immediately became much colder, constituting a noble indifference. He originally had a specially beautiful appearance, especially that pair of beautiful eyes, that seemed to be unable to accommodate anything in this world. The black hair scattered on the plain white clothes formed a stark contrast, of innocent and allure, but also creates a distance of a thousand of miles.
That feeling of estrangement sprung up in Pei Lie’s mind once more, along with the constant feeling that he will never be able to grab a hold of this figure before him, who appears too high to reach. Making his affection and anxiety, perseverance and ordeal, turn into nothing but just an insignificant dust in the eyes of this youth.
Pei Lie couldn’t help but feel stifled, then trudged towards Chen Tong step by step. The sky had already gone dark, under such backlight, the figure of the great hitman appeared sharper, each and every angle from head to toe exuded great strength, without a tiny bit of soft spot.
Chen Tong look on helplessly as Pei Lie closed in on him inch by inch, with decisive stance and terrifying momentum, making him want to instinctively fall back. But behind him was a locked door, as soon as he turned around, he was seized and swept up by Pei Lie.
The great hitman embraced his little koi in a very tight hug, without leaving a bit of gap, just like wishing to embed the other person’s into his body. Afterwards, he lowered his head and kissed the youth once more.
However, the kiss this time didn’t have that fierceness during Arthur’s presence before, but was gentle and long-lasting. Chen Tong only felt this kiss was brimming with love, longing, anger and grievance in addition to a lot of other emotions. The strong taste made him somewhat unbearable, which resulted to the rising of a vague feeling of déjà vu.
Pei Lie seemed to perceive his change at once, it took him a lot of will power to stop the kiss, then he looked at him fixedly, without a blink. The gazes of the two were polar opposite, Chen Tong’s eyes were dim and hazy. But Pei Lie’s were ardent and focused, as firm as a blazing torch, in addition to revealing an explicit *. Then asked in a hoarse voice: “Did you remember me?”
*passion probably?
All the surrounding noises seemed to be so far away at this instant, forming a small two person world which could not accommodate any other person. Chen Tong only had Pei Lie in his eyes, the nose was also filled with the masculine scent of the other side. The heart subsequently missed a beat, like a broken device that cannot be restored in working order, but the memory still remained pretty much blank, so he could only bite his lip and remain silent.
“Speak, tell me you remember me!” Pei Lie exclaimed in anger due to emotional instability, the preceding words seems more of an exasperated sigh than an angry question: “How can you forget me?!”
Chen Tong’s heart was already very turbulent. His facial expression, on the contrary, turned even colder underneath his anxiousness, that he mobilized his spiritual energy to push Pei Lie away, then twisted the doorknob once more in an attempt to open the door.
Pei Lie only felt that the youth looked at him like looking at a piece of mud he was eager to throw off, in the next second, he momentarily staggered from the powerful push. The the view of the youth’s back who was anxiously trying to open the door made him incessantly panic even more. That he really rushed forward and seized the youth’s shoulder. Then bit onto his neck and fiercely sank his teeth.
Pei Lie was slightly possessed for a moment.
His obsessive compulsive behavior didn’t really get better because of the little koi’s appearance, but had just shifted over. The constant and uncontrollable repetition of thoughts and excessive scrutiny of every single thing, were all transferred to the little koi alone. Which became even stronger due to his ardent love to him.
Pei Lie could no longer control his thoughts anymore, he almost wanted to swallow the person in his arms into his belly. Letting him be enveloped in his scent, to become his own and to never separate from him. So much so that he desired to fiercely press him under his body, so badly till he cried for mercy, helplessly calling his name over and over again, or till both eyes misted and his entire body softens, as he incessantly □□, until nothing was left.
The man appeared so fierce, the force of the bite was so strong, he didn’t even stop when hearing the youth’s painful cry underneath his body. Eventually, when the unpleasant taste of blood spread in his mouth, Pei Lie finally returned to his senses and stopped biting, then stared at the somewhat alarming bite marks on the youth that spreads from the side of his neck up to the collarbone in a daze.
The steady ooze of blood was like a basin of cold water splashing onto Pei Lie’s face. Brushing aside all the thoughts that made him lose control just a moment ago.
Pei Lie reached out in an attempt to help Chen Tong staunch the wound, but that pair of hand of that were dyed by the innumerable blood of people didn’t dare to touch, hanging in midair. The man’s constantly steadfast expression was conspicuously revealed his distress and helplessness, the voice even had a slight tremor: “……I-, ……I don’t know what just happened.”
Chen Tong frowned, the petite face had already turned pale. The whole person immediately backed off the moment Pei Lie reached out. But the slightest movement would agitate the wound, that the blood slowly oozed out once more, the eyes had also subconsciously teared up due to pain, two small clinks successively fell at the back of Pei Lie’s hand, similar to a sparkling and translucent dewdrop.
Pei Lie inexplicable felt that the youth before him was similar to a tiny dewdrop, which may vanish at any given moment. He suddenly did not dare to speak or breath, for fear that a little inattentiveness, will blow away or dissipate that dewdrop.
At the same time as this, the falling beads of rain could also be seen outside the window without warning.
The cloudless night sky was obviously full of stars, but it suddenly rained out of the blue, drop by drop, battering upon the glass window.
It is the result of the passive skill, Rain of tears.
The little koi who was the ‘main culprit’ felt a magical feeling as well, that he momentarily forgot to cry, and looked out the window in a daze. The timing of the rain was too subtle, combined with the youth’s expression, the quick-witted hitman finally realized the cause of the rain as well. A flash of incredulous feeling inevitably flashed through his eyes, but more feelings of distress and regret remained. He subsequently carried the youth up in his arms and carefully placed him on the sofa, then took out a medicine kit.

The instant the medicine powder was sprinkled on the wound, the little koi who was afraid of pain couldn’t help crying once more, but did his best to restrain his sniffles. Making Pei Lie even more distressed, that he properly applied the medicine as quick as possible, then held the youth’s hand and said: “Sorry……”
This was the first time the great hitman had ever apologized to another person in his entire life, but the little koi had shrank himself in the corner of the sofa, without sparing him a single glance. However, this movement agitated the injury on the side of his neck once more, making him draw in his breath in pain.
“……Tong Tong, sorry……” Pei Lie continued to apologize. He gently wrapped his arm on his sweetheart’s shoulder and coaxed him similar to a baby, as he asked: “Is it very painful?”
It would have been alright even if he wasn’t coaxed. The more the little koi was coaxed, the more aggrieved he felt. What’s more, people with amnesia had a feeling of insecurity, that the tears had furtively flowed out once again. Feeling that he will lose face*, not only did he lower his face to avoid Pei Lie’s sight , he didn’t even dare to leak a single trace of sound.
*to bring shame to oneself
Unfortunately, the rain outside the window exposed him.
Not only did the rain not stop, on the contrary, it even felt stronger under Pei Lie’s gaze, that he subconsciously frowned in tension. He reached out, to try lifting up the youth’s face with a bit of anxiousness.
Unfortunately, the little koi refused to let him look no matter what, that he even jumped off the sofa in agitation, running along the the half opened window wall beside the sofa into the balcony, then finally jumped into the swimming pool with a plop.
Pei Lie hurriedly rushed over, but didn’t dare to rush into the water to fish him out. Pei Lie knows that the the most comfortable and safest place to a fish is the water, but now, he would rather change into a little koi to avoid the fierce beast. Just recalling the chilly expression and strange attitude of the youth, could actually make his hardened self tremble in pain from head to toe.
The adjective of beast wasn’t wrong at all, because young master Chen had already been maddeningly running a barrage in his mind. With phrases of, ah ah ah, I was bitten several times by a beast. I don’t know whether I need to get a rabies vaccine. It is said that this vaccine needs to be injected three times in a row.
As the night grew deeper, the little koi eventually reached the state of exhaustion, changing into his half-demon appearance whilst curling up in a corner, gradually falling asleep.
Pei Lie, nonetheless, continued to stand still in the rain by the poolside, with worry and distress as he looked down at the crystal clear pool water in the dark night. He ineluctably reached into his pocket, feeling for the case half filled with cigarette he had.
This evening was bound to be a long night for Pei Lie.
The fingers of the great hitman were very slender, the action of pinching the cigarette stick between his fingers were elegant and seductive, in combination to his handsome appearance, which could easily hook the hearts of people. He didn’t have smoking addiction, but occasionally lights the cigarette during huge mood swings in order to watch the light be extinguished. Sad to say, the cigarette butt was quickly pelted down by the rain drops, making it impossible to keep burning. Pei Lie took a deep breath, quietly outlining the face of his sweetheart in the smoke.
The rain eventually stopped.
Which also meant that the little koi had finally stopped crying and had fallen asleep.
The great hitman had finally let out a sigh of relief, then looked up in the sky, the last drop of rain happened to fall at the side of his lip.
He opened his mouth to sip it in, just like sipping the tears of the little koi.
Having a bit of bitterness, with a slightly cool feeling.
He stood for a while longer, until the area where the sky and the sea meets in the distance turned greenish. Pei Lie gently and silently dove into the water, bringing up the koi youth that was sound asleep. Maybe due to over exhaustion, or perhaps the ingrained reliance towards Pei Lie, Chen Tong did not wake up at all, but fell into a deeper sleep instead. The fish tail automatically changed into a pair of legs outside the water. Pei Lie wrapped the person in a towel and wiped him dry, then carefully laid him on the bed, after applying medicine on his wounds once more, only then did he lie sideways to face towards him.
The time was already more than 2 o’clock of the wee hours in the morning, but Pei Lie couldn’t sleep at all. He first loathed himself for more than half an hour, then tormented himself by thinking that the youth might abhor him after waking up and ask to leave once more, then finally looked at the beautiful sleeping countenance of the little koi in daze.
The youth slept soundly before him without a bit of protection. The long lashes, lightly undulated along his breathing, his soft face, which strangely made him want to take a bite. Pei Lie couldn’t resist gently drawing the person in his arms, and the little koi, who found a heat source took the initiative to snuggle further into Pei Lie’s embrace without further ado.
Pei Lie froze for a moment.
At this moment, he, who had originally been full of bitterness, loss, impatience, anxiety, and even by the anger of being forgotten, actually felt that those things were not worth mentioning all of a sudden. Something surged in his chest, making it grow warm once more. Their embrace was so fitting, that it made his heart fiercely throb a second time.
Pei Lie mind was filled with clarity. Hearing his breath regained it’s smoothness, he suddenly realized something. In fact, it doesn’t really matter even if the little koi doesn’t remember him, whether or not the amnesia can be cured was not important as well, he just mustn’t give up. When the youth evades once, the he would chase him once, if the youth refuses twice, he only needs to confess thrice. He had been able to establish a harmonious relationship with him in only a few days before, it should still be possible right now.
The cruise ship sailed back to land at exactly 8 o’clock in the morning. As Pei Lie expected, the youth once again asked for permission to leave after docking.
