“Some accidents happened temporarily, and they are dealing with them, so they don’t have time to come,” Lu Nan said calmly. In order to prevent Lin Yu He from hurting himself, he got out of bed and distanced himself. “It’s still early, we can go out later.”
Although he didn’t turn his head, Lu Nan could still feel the relief in the boy behind him.
Lin Yu He adjusted his pajamas: “Okay.” He watched as Lu Nan left the bedroom, not knowing what to do. Taking advantage of this time, he quickly checked himself and found that there were fingerprints and tooth marks all over his body that were so bright that they couldn’t fade away for a while. They were even on his fingertips and insteps.
Gosh.
Lin Yu He covered his forehead, thinking to himself. What did he do last night?
Lin Yu He still remembered offering to help, but that didn’t mean he didn’t mind. In fact, he felt increasingly ashamed, wanting to erase the memory of that night from his mind. Mrs… He couldn’t even think of words to describe it. His only thought now was to end everything as soon as possible and turn the page. For this agreement, he had done so many things he never could have imagined before.
Lin Yu He took a long breath, feeling pain all over his body, but before he could finish his breath, he was interrupted by the pain in his lips. He frowned and raised his hand to touch it, finding a little blood on his fingertips. When had his mouth broken the skin?
Lin Yu He remembered that Mr. Lu had told him not to bite his lip from the beginning when they were intimate last night. He unconsciously tried to bite several times, but Lu Nan pinched his chin to stop him. Later, the man even inserted his fingers, cooperating with the movements below, and taught Lin Yu He a profound lesson. As a result, Lin Yu He would rather bite the back of his own hand than his lip in the future.
Lin Yu He probably didn’t break his mouth last night. He was wondering when he saw Lu Nan walking over.
“Don’t touch it with your hands,” the man said, frowning as he placed the tray on the bedside and picked up a tube of ointment.
Lin Yu He took the ointment on his own initiative. “I’ll do it myself,” he said. “I remember that my mouth didn’t dry out for many days before. I don’t know why it broke again today.” He squeezed out some ointment and applied it. After thinking about it, he asked, “Brother, did I ever wake up?”
“You don’t remember?” Lu Nan said.
Lin Yu He was surprised to find out that he had actually woken up in the middle of the night. However, he had no memory of what had happened during that time. He nervously asked Lu Nan if anything had happened while he was awake.
Despite closely observing Lu Nan’s expression, Lin Yu He couldn’t find any clues. Lu Nan’s tone was also very calm as he explained that Lin Yu He had just gotten up to drink some water and had accidentally bumped his mouth.
Despite this explanation, Lin Yu He couldn’t shake off his unease. He knew that when he was sick, he would be drowsy and would not be aware of anything once he fell asleep.
Lin Yu He was stunned to learn that he had actually woken up during the night. But he had no memory of what happened after falling asleep. He nervously asked Lu Nan if anything had occurred while he was unconscious. Lu Nan’s expression and demeanor remained unchanged, and he simply told Lin Yu He that he had gotten up to drink some water and accidentally knocked his mouth.
Lin Yu He couldn’t shake off his unease. He knew that he tended to be lethargic when he was sick, and once he really fell asleep, he wouldn’t be aware of anything. He couldn’t help but think back to his childhood, when he had always had to sleep with his parents and struggled to sleep alone. His grandfather had made him a pillow with the word “crane” embroidered on it in his own handwriting, which helped him sleep peacefully. That pillow had stayed with Lin Yu He until he became seriously ill at around age seven or eight, and he never saw it again.
Lin Yu He never expected to sleep so deeply in Lu Nan’s arms and have no memory of what happened in the interim.
Lin Yu He knew that it was not right to feel this way. As an adult, he should be able to control his own actions and emotions. He cannot allow himself to become attached to someone just because they provided comfort and warmth.
Lin Yu He also knew that the situation with the Lu family had changed, and he would not have to do the tasks he had prepared for last night. While this was a relief for him, he couldn’t help but wonder if he would be required to do similar tasks in the future.
Lin Yu He looked at Lu Nan, who was sitting by the bed with a porridge bowl, hesitated for a moment, and said.
“Brother, if you don’t go to see the Lu family today,” Lin Yu He restrained himself from pursing his lips with the bitter ointment on his lips, “then last night’s task…do you have to do it again before meeting them? ”
Lu Nan, who was gently stirring the porridge with a spoon to dissipate heat, paused and looked up.
Lu Nan’s gaze has always been oppressive, and Lin Yu He couldn’t help feeling a little chilly on the back of his neck.
But the words had already been spoken, so he had no choice but to continue.
“I just want to ask when our agreement will end.” Lin Yu He’s voice was a little tense. “We divorced after the agreement ended, right?”
As soon as the word “divorce” came out, Lu Nan, who had been expressionless, finally bent the silver spoon in his hand.
