“You just drank so much tea, why don’t you eat something to fill your stomach?” Xie Jiu knew who it was as soon as he noticed the scent.
“It’s only tea. Uncle Jiu feels sorry for me. Otherwise, if I had gone to so many tables and drank so much wine, I would have to go back home and lay down today. Uncle Jiu, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?” An Yinong, who followed him out, pressed his hand on the lower abdomen, “Does your stomach feel uncomfortable?”
An Yinong’s body temperature was higher than Xie Jiu’s. His hand was placed on Xie Jiu’s lower abdomen, which was warm. However, if they are seen in public areas, there would inevitably be gossip.
Xie Jiu didn’t care, but it would be bad if it affected An Yinong.
“I brought painkillers,” he said.
“Painkillers only relieve pain. You really should take care of your stomach.”
“Ahem.” Grandpa He appeared out of nowhere. He seemed not to notice the two people standing there in a daze. He muttered to himself, “You are getting too old to be useful. You even get lost when you go to the bathroom.”
Having said that, he turned back and soon disappeared from the two men’s sight.
“Old man…”
Xie Jiu looked at An Yinong, but An Yinong just smiled and kissed him, then stood up and ran towards his grandfather: “Grandpa, where are you going? I’ll take you there.”
Xie Jiu was the only one left in the small living room. His fingertips rubbed his lips: Did he have the same idea?
“Grandpa.” An Yinong supported his grandfather, and his voice became sweeter.
Grandpa He looked at him and lowered his voice: “Your father was so successful back then, I thought he was the most troublesome one among his descendants, but his son turned out to be more troublesome than his father. You kept silent and kept doing bad things.”
“I know grandpa loves me the most.” At this time he pretended to be stupid.
“Grandpa is old and can’t take care of you anymore.”
The head patriarch of the family agreed, so the matter was half settled. However, An Yinong was still wondering why the most conservative grandfather in the family did not object?
“Because you’ve grown wings?” Xie Jiu, who was wearing casual clothes, leaned against the sofa to correct the dialogue on the drawing. He answered him with the words that An Yinong had used to block his third sister.
“It doesn’t matter. Grandpa doesn’t care.”
The banquet was over and the guests had gone home. The gifts were piled in another room, waiting to be opened, but the birthday boy was sitting at the table hurriedly finishing his draft. Since his assistant was not there and he had a heavy workload, the text proofreading task was given to Xie Jiu.
Xie Jiu knew that An Yinong often missed or made mistakes in his handwriting, but looking at the pencilled words on the draft in his hand, he couldn’t help but laugh: the font was so beautiful, it exuded an elite vibe, but some words were always missing, there was a wonderful sense of contrast.
He thoroughly read the conversation before erasing the pencil marks and leaving his own handwriting with his fountain pen. An Yinong’s handwriting was in standard script, steady and calm, while Xie Jiu’s handwriting was sharp and sharp, but the two were very harmonious together.
Xie Jiu revised each page as time passed by. Finally, all the drafts in his hand had been revised. He raised a hand, ready to change the draft, but saw An Yinong lying on the table, seemingly asleep.
An Yinong had indeed fallen asleep. He had woken up early as he had a lot of things to do today. He had just finished drawing the last draft and wanted to relax and close his eyes for a rest. As a result, his mind and body became too relaxed – he fell asleep.
“Are you tired?” Xie Jiu’s fingers combed through his soft and smooth black hair, like touching a piece of satin. He carried him to the bed and leaned over to take a closer look.
His boyfriend had unknowingly grown into a young man, wearing a fitted suit and cufflinks on his shirt cuffs that he had chosen himself.
“The watch today is great.” He carefully and devoutly kissed the back of An Yinong’s hand, “Thank you for choosing me.”
“Is there a reward?” The young man on the bed opened his eyes, put his arm around Xie Jiu’s neck, and breathed softly on his neck, “Uncle Jiu, I’m so good, shouldn’t you show some appreciation.”
Xie Jiu was stunned for a moment, and then his warm hand playfully reached into the hem of his shirt and snaked up along the curve of his abdominal muscles.
“Atong.” Xie Jiu’s voice became hoarse and his breathing became disordered.
“Uncle Jiu, you are so cute. Have I ever told you that I never fell in love with you over time, but it was love at first sight. By the way, Uncle Jiu’s suit was also very beautiful today. Your waist is thin and your legs are long. I like it very much.”
As An Yinong spoke, he pressed his favorite Xie Jiu under him.
Xie Jiu felt a small flame rising in his body, his rationality was burning shorter and shorter, his muscles were tense, and he asked in a hoarse voice: “Only the body?”
“I like the face, too.”
“There’s more?” Xie Jiu reached out to unbutton his clothes and took off the ring on his finger.
“I like the soul inside the most. How much do I like it? I like it as much as I like myself…” An Yinong’s words were as passionate and frank as ever, and Xie Jiu couldn’t help but be attracted.
As always, Xie Jiu was not good at speaking his mind. He only used actual actions to describe his love – even when they were together, he would prioritize pleasing the one he loved.
Touching Xie Jiu’s tense arms, An Yinong’s eyes were wet, his chest was heaving, and his words were intermittent: “You can be more presumptuous. I give you the privilege.”
Xie Jiu narrowed his eyes, he kissed his fingertips, and said in a low voice: “As you command.”
The black Tang suit was layered over the navy blue business suit, and the emerald green ring rolled to the ground when the sheets were pulled, breaking into two pieces, but no one paid any attention to it.
An Yinong leaned back, his eyes misted over, all the sounds were suppressed in his throat, only some vague sounds came out, like feathers scraping Xie Jiu’s eardrums. Xie Jiu liked every part of him, the redness at the corners of his eyes, the cute pout of his lips, and especially loved his earlobes with a small mole on them.
“I’m glad you like me, An Yinong.”
An Yinong opened his eyes, and he saw a pair of deep red eyes, which were filled with tenderness and persistence: “You found me again.”
An Yinong wanted to ask further, but the waves kept coming one after another. He didn’t know when he fell asleep. He only knew that when he woke up the next day, he was so tired that he didn’t even want to lift a finger, and the sun outside was about to set.
The room was clean and had no other smells. The desk was also clean. Xie Jiu moved a stool and sat beside the bed. He didn’t know how long he had been looking at his lover.
An Yinong: … (winks)
“The editor came to pick up the manuscript, and I have already given it to her.” Xie Jiu pretended to pick up the book.
An Yinong looked up at him, quietly admired his beauty for a while, and asked, “Can I ask?”
“No, but I will stay with you.” Xie Jiu tightened his fingers holding the book and looked at An Yinong, “Sorry.”
“If you don’t tell me, I won’t ask.” He got up, kissed him, and then hid his head under the quilt, “I want to sleep for a while.”
Xie Jiu touched his cheek and put down the book: “I’ll go downstairs to cook you a bowl of noodles.”
“I don’t want noodles, I want wontons.” A muffled voice came from under the quilt.
“Okay.”
The delicate wontons were sprinkled with green chopped green onions, golden shredded eggs, and pink transparent dried shrimps. An Yinong ate the meal without even lifting his head.
Xie Jiu watched him stuttering, he didn’t know how satisfied his expression was. He only knew that his barren and lifeless world was now filled with colors.
“Do you want to eat?” An Yinong held up a spoon, “Ah.”
Xie Jiu opened his mouth and took a small wonton. The strange sweet taste almost made him spit out what was in his mouth.
“Hahahahahaha.” An Yinong laughed as he scooped up the last wonton, “Were you too nervous and mistook sugar for salt?”
Xie Jiu wanted An Yinong not to eat, but he had already eaten the last one. An Yinong was very picky about food, he could make it simple but he had to make it well, but he smiled and ate all the unfinished wontons. To put it inappropriately, Xie Jiu felt that he loved without limits.
This strange feeling made him feel at a loss. He wanted to hug him, but was worried about hurting him. In the end, Xie Jiu just said, “This is the last time.” He would let him taste bad cooking.
In the evening, editor Qian called, and her excitement seemed to penetrate the phone line: “The new comic is really good! All the female colleagues in our editorial department are scrambling to read it. Even if one of the horns is broken off, the white dragon is still very handsome and majestic.”
“Ah, he is always very handsome and majestic.” An Yinong said with a smile.
“I feel that the emotions in this comic are more sincere and touching. Don’t you want to fall in love, Mr. Gu Pan?”
An Yinong laughed: “Is it so obvious? Of course I also met my dragon.”
Editor Qian was a little surprised, but immediately congratulated him: “Congratulations, a talented man and a beautiful woman, such a wonderful couple.”
He doesn’t know how to be modest: “He is indeed very good.”
After hanging up, Editor Qian said he saw him in the newspaper and he was very handsome.
“Hong Kong City is not that big. It’s normal to see the third party in the newspaper.” An Yinong turned the page casually. Since he had already been admitted to university, it would not have any impact on him if his identity was exposed.
There was no problem as long as the two vests were not exposed.
The editor said it was too small, and a few pictures flashed in newspapers and even on TV. They were mainly of grandpa, who also appeared for a few seconds as the protagonist of the birthday party.
However, An Yinong, who had been specially groomed that day, was very charming and attracted many people in just a few seconds. Later, the newspaper also revealed that he initiated a student aid fund and a mobile hospital, which made people think that he had a good family background, good looks and was very kind, so they all had a good first impression of him.
So, unsurprisingly, An Yinong was surrounded when he returned to school to get his diploma. By the way, he had been in this school for several years. Many people had come to see him secretly and handed him many love letters. This was the first time in his life that he had been surrounded.
His bodyguards were still trying to hold back those crazy students, but two fists were no match for four hands as there were too many of them. Zhang Wei, who was standing next to him, was pushed to the back by the crowd in the blink of an eye. He waved to An Yinong while being pushed further away. It was really laughable.
In the end, An Yinong hid in the boys’ restroom. He was still in shock: “Fortunately, they didn’t know about it. It’s really too much.”
“It’s not an exaggeration. Do you know how many people want to join your company, but but not know you are in our school? You hid it too well.” Zhang Wei panted.
“I was wondering why Ms. Li Yufeng donated a building to our school for no reason. This solved a mystery that had been bothering me for a long time. But come to think of it, your mother’s daily attire is completely different from her theater photos. I accompanied my grandma to watch theater every day, but I didn’t recognize her.” Zhao Gang said.
Zhang Wei finally calmed down. He turned on the water tap to rinse his face. He looked up in the mirror and saw An Yinong’s handsome face with messy hair. He couldn’t help but feel a little jealous: “He is half a meter shorter than me in two years, and taller than me, and so handsome. If he likes a girl, he can get her as long as he asks.”
“Hey, don’t talk nonsense, I have a heart.”
“Eh?” Zhang Wei was interested in what he said. “When was it available? I haven’t heard you talk about it before.”
“Of course you don’t know. Anyway, I have a partner.”
As they were talking, there were two knocks on the bathroom door, and then it was pushed open. A man with broad shoulders, narrow waist and long legs came out of the door. He ignored Zhang Wei and looked at An Yinong: “I just happened to be passing by and came to pick you up.”
An Yinong said hello to Zhang Wei and left with the man. Zhang Wei touched his chin and said, “He looks so familiar, I seem to have seen him before… Oh! I remember, that guy! The guy who helped Tiantong when we went to the cinema to watch a movie together!
“I was saying, it’s rare to see someone looking so impressive in a Tang suit.”
As a result, Zhao Gang frowned and looked outside the door without responding for a long time.
“Hey, Zhao Gang, what’s wrong with you?”
Zhao Gang came back to his senses: “I felt that there was something wrong with the way that guy looked at Tiantong. I can’t explain it, but it didn’t seem like he was looking at a friend.”
An Yinong and Xie Jiu had already reached a secluded path, with their bodyguards following not far behind.
“I saw it in today’s magazine. It turns out the new comic book is called ‘Meeting the Dragon’.”
“Um.”
“The ‘Master Teacher’, and the name Gu Pan…”
“And Superstar, right?”
Xie Jiu paused, and An Yinong looked at him with a smile: “Are you still jealous?”
Who on earth was this guy who was still asking him to teach him swordsmanship, and even has to come and be his horse riding teacher as a birthday present?
“They all belong to me, but I am more than just them. So,” Xie Jiu looked at An Yinong, “I’m still jealous.”
