Tan Yue poured himself a glass of red wine and sat on the coffee chair by the French windows, admiring the night view of the city under the bright lights. Meanwhile, he counted how long someone would linger in the bathroom.
Just as he thought that Song Linchu planned to spend the night in the bathroom, the door opened with a “click.”
Tan Yue raised his eyebrows and almost choked on his drink when he looked up. Song Linchu walked out of the bathroom with his black hair half-wet, and his face red and moist from the steam. His lips were pink, and his eyes were bright and clear, as if they had been baptized.
However, the focus was not on his looks but his half-opened bathrobe, which hinted at the spring scenery beneath, accompanied by a shy and somewhat innocent expression.
This Song Linchu was simply tempting people to commit crimes.
Is this what they call a pure male college student?
“Gege, where is the hairdryer? I can’t find it,” Song Linchu said, trying hard to keep his voice from trembling.
Even his voice was soft and supple.
Tan Yue almost exposed his impure thoughts on the spot. He thought it would be a sleepless night for Song Linchu, but now he realized that he might be the one who couldn’t sleep.
Avoiding Song Linchu’s innocent and seductive gaze, Tan Yue asked in a low voice, “Isn’t it in the bathroom?”
“I didn’t see it,” Song Linchu replied.
Tan Yue put down his wine glass, stood up and said, “I’ll take a look.”
Song Linchu secretly made a victory gesture as he watched Tan Yue’s slightly messy steps . He thought this straight steel man was as restrained as a monk. As it turned out, even those who couldn’t do it could be charmed by beauty.
After a while, Tan Yue came out of the bathroom with a hairdryer in his hand.
Song Linchu was sitting on the bed playing with his phone, and he had only wiped his hair with a towel. A few drops of water gathered at the end of his hair, and when he looked up, the drops fell from his hair and landed on his snow-white neck. They followed his neck down, passing by his translucent white chest, and went deeper…
Tan Yue suddenly felt his throat tighten.
“Hey, gege, where did you find it?” Song Linchu asked knowingly.
He had personally hidden the hairdryer, so he
naturally knew where it was.
“Under the cabinet by the sink,” Tan Yue said, handing him the hairdryer. “Dry your hair first before playing.”
However, Song Linchu did not take it. He blinked and said, “Gege, can you dry it for me?”
Tan Yue: “…”
Tan Yue tried his best to maintain a cold tone and said, “Do it yourself.”
Song Linchu: “???”
What a stubborn straight steel man…
“My hand hurts. I got splashed with oil when I was making noodles at noon. As soon as it touched the water, it started to hurt. Look!”
Song Linchu held out his hand. There was indeed a small red stain on the back of his hand where the splashed oil had burned him, and there were two small blisters.
Tan Yue left the kitchen to answer an important email after peeling the garlic, so he had no idea what had happened. He saw the young man’s obvious burn mark on his fair hand and was speechless.
Anyone who has been burned knows that the burned area will hurt fiercely as long as it comes into contact with a heat source.
No matter how arrogant Tan Yue was, he could not refuse Song Linchu in this situation. He plugged in the hairdryer and said in a low voice, “Come sit here.”
Song Linchu moved towards him and said happily, “Thank you, gege.”
Tan Yue just wanted to go to the bathroom to calm down.
As a young master who had been pampered since childhood, Tan Yue had never done anything to serve anyone. Fortunately, blow-drying hair required no skill, and he did it himself every day, so it was quite simple.
He tried to ignore the open spring scenery that was more beautiful from above, expressionlessly blow-drying Song Linchu’s hair for him.
But the other person was always restless, moving here and there. That patch of spring scenery was like a shadow that could not be shaken off, constantly swaying in front of his eyes…
Tan Yue was now in a psychological game more stimulating than at the negotiation table. He didn’t even know how he had helped someone dry their hair.
Song Linchu’s hair was thick and soft, and after it was blow-dried, it was even more fluffy, making people want to caress him.
Tan Yue curled his fingers and suppressed the impulse.
“It’s done.” Tan Yue turned off the hairdryer.
Song Linchu ran his fingers through his dry hair and was satisfied with the service from the older man. “Thank you, gege.”
“I’m going to take a shower.”
Tan Yue said and, without waiting for any further mischief, took his bathrobe and the hairdryer and hurried into the bathroom.
If you looked at Tan Yue’s expression, you would never know that he had a problem at the moment.
However, the older man had turned red.
Song Linchu watched as the older man almost ran into the bathroom as if fleeing. He fell back on the bed, pounded the quilt and laughed.
Originally, Song Linchu’s plan was to strike while the iron was hot and make another move, breaking through the older man’s defense in one fell swoop. But the older man had been in the bathroom for half an hour, which was unusual for him.
If he didn’t know better, Song Linchu would have suspected that the older man was doing something in there.
Song Linchu changed into his pajamas and lay down on the bed.
Due to being pulled into playing games by the dormitory roomates last night, it was already past 2 a.m. when Song Linchu went to bed. Now, after taking a shower and lying on the soft bed, he was so relaxed that he felt tempted to fall asleep.
Song Linchu fell asleep waiting, and didn’t even hear the sound of Tan Yue finishing his shower.
After Tan Yue finished his shower and came out of the bathroom, and was relieved to see that the young man half-buried in the quilt was asleep.
He took the mobile phone that was still in Song Linchu’s hand and put it on the bedside table. He adjusted the temperature in the room before turning off the lights and leaving only a bedside lamp on. Then, he got into bed.
From somewhere outside, came the sound of cheering, with someone counting down loudly, “10, 9, 8…” Tan Yue glanced at his phone screen and realized that it was almost 12 o’clock.
“3, 2, 1! Happy New Year!”
Along with the countdown, there was also the faint sound of fireworks, estimated to be from the fireworks at the Spring Festival sub-venue, which could be heard faintly from here.
Tan Yue looked at the young man sleeping soundly. He curled up his body slightly, occupying only a small area, as cute and obedient as a little kitten.
He whispered, “Happy New Year.”
The response he received was the young man turning over and exposing his indifferent nape.
Tan Yue: “…”
After a moment, Tan Yue’s lips curved helplessly, and he turned off the bedside lamp and closed his eyes.
Tan Yue was not used to sharing a bed with someone else. He had been lying there for twenty minutes with his eyes closed, but he still didn’t feel sleepy at all.
Half an hour later, Tan Yue finally began to feel a little sleepy. Just as he was falling into a daze, the young man sleeping next to him suddenly turned over and woke him up again.
The person must have been feeling cold or something, and instinctively moved closer to him in his sleep. Soon, he was pressed against Tan Yue’s side.
Tan Yue shifted away a little.
Ten minutes later, the young man rolled towards him again.
“…”
Fortunately, the bed was two-meters wide, so Tan Yue could still move away. He moved to the side again and adjusted the temperature a little higher, so Song Linchu wouldn’t follow the heat source.
As it turned out, Song Linchu wasn’t following the heat source at all. Although the temperature in the room was so high that it was difficult to cover up with the quilt, Song Linchu still leaned over and this time, and even rolled directly into Tan Yue’s arms.
Tan Yue: “…”
The young man’s body was soft and warm like jade, with the scent of shower gel, stimulating every cell in the older man’s body.
Unfortunately, some people still couldn’t settle down in their sleep. Song Linchu found a comfortable position in his arms, rubbed against him, hummed twice, and then went back to sleep.
His body, which had already been teased to the point where he couldn’t take it before, was now being very honest…
“Linchu,” his voice was hoarse, and he pushed Song Linchu a little, “sleep a little better.”
Unfortunately, Song Linchu had excellent sleep quality and there was no sign of waking up even when pushed.
He estimated that he was a little hot, and he reached out to pull at the neckline. The scattered light outside came in through the slit of the curtain, and under the dim light and shadow, the white patch became even more conspicuous.
Tan Yue: “…”
This was really killing him.
Tan Yue couldn’t take it anymore and decided to go to the bathroom to take care of his physiological problem. Just as he was about to sit up from the bed, he found that his sleeve had been grabbed.
–Someone who always liked to grab people’s sleeves, unconsciously grabbed the sleeve of his pajamas even in his sleep…
If it weren’t for someone being scared to fight in real battles, Tan Yue would have suspected he was pretending to be asleep to tease him.
However, unconscious teasing is the most fatal. In the quiet and dark room, Tan Yue could hear his own breathing clearly, each breath heavier than the last.
He reached out with his other hand and turned on the bedside lamp.
On the bed, someone was red-faced because of the heat, their collar messy and disheveled, making it hard to look at them directly.
Tan Yue was stimulated once again and urgently needed the protection of the bathroom. He reached out to rescue his sleeve, but his arm was instead hugged by Song Linchu. His cheek pressed against his hand, and he unconsciously murmured, “Gege, it’s hot…”
Tan Yue: “…”
Your gege is also hot, both physically and mentally. It was like he had eaten a hundred kilos of fake mutton and was feverish.
If Song Linchu were awake at this moment, he would surely find an incredible and unwelcome guest at his waist.
Unfortunately, he was not awake.
Tan Yue lowered the temperature and physically cooled down. He then wiped away a bead of sweat from Song Linchu’s nose with his hand.
His fingertip touched the youth’s soft and warm lips, and he couldn’t help but press down. Song Linchu felt uncomfortable and pursed his lips slightly. The soft lips covered his finger joint, and the warm breath sprinkled on his hand, electrifying him like a current, making his entire arm tingle, and adding fuel to the already feverish body.
Tan Yue couldn’t resist any longer, he pulled his hand back, turned his head, and kissed the young man’s lips.
The young man’s lips were soft and light, with a taste even better than imagined. For the first time, Tan Yue learned how to conquer and strategize without a teacher. When they parted, even a silver thread was pulled.
“You sleep better than a pig.” He muttered in a hoarse voice as he looked at Song Linchu, who only wrinkled his brows slightly, feeling uncomfortable but without any intention of waking up.
He reached out and touched the young man’s rosy face, leaned over, and kissed his reddened lips once again before getting off the bed and entering the bathroom.
When Song Linchu woke up from his slumber, it was already eight in the morning of the next day.
He had slept soundly and felt refreshed. The bed was empty, and Tan Yue had already gotten up. Song Linchu breathed a sigh of relief. As a young man, it was normal for him to have some bodily reactions when waking up early, but Tan Yue couldn’t afford to do so. He was afraid of hurting the old man’s self-esteem.
But he had actually fallen asleep like this the first time they had shared a bed. He was annoyed at himself.
Oh well, it was better to sleep than to deal with what had happened last night.
Song Linchu was lost in thought when he suddenly felt a slight pain at his lips. He walked into the bathroom and looked in the mirror, only to find a small piece of his lip was bitten and turned red.
Damn it! The online comments about the mosquitoes in Haikou were no joke. Even in the dead of winter, they were still capable of biting people. Looking at the heavy snow outside, he wondered how the mosquitoes could survive in such conditions.
After using the bathroom, Song Linchu washed his face and walked out to find Tan Yue just coming in.
“Gege, did you get bitten by a mosquito?” Song Linchu asked.
“A mosquito?” Tan Yue asked in confusion.
“Yeah, just look at my mouth. The mosquito bit me badly. The mosquitoes in Haikou are so vicious,” Song Linchu complained.
Tan Yue: “…”
How can someone’s mind be so strange?
“No, I didn’t get bitten,” Tan Yue said expressionlessly.
“Oh, I guess it’s because of my blood type. I attract mosquitoes more easily. Um, gege, did you not sleep well last night? You have big dark circles under your eyes,” Song Linchu said, noticing the circles.
Tan Yue didn’t want to talk about it. When the young man continued to stare at him waiting for an answer, Tan Yue replied, “I got pushed around by a pig.”
Song Linchu: ???
Are you trying to make fun of me?
Song Linchu glared at Tan Yue and Tan Yue’s eyes flashed with a hint of amusement. “That pig pushed me all night, and I almost fell off the bed,” Tan Yue said with a straight face.
Song Linchu: “…”
Ahh, you stinky straight steel man, you’re the pig!”
“Anyway, that pig won’t be me,” Song Linchu said confidently, “I have a particularly good sleeping posture!”
Tan Yue asked, “How would you know if you were asleep?”
Song Linchu choked.
Tan Yue continued, “Did some disappointing nephew of mine tell you?”
If a real couple shared a bed, Song Linchu’s sleeping posture was indeed not bad. The other person would even enjoy it.
Although Tan Yue understood that he was a novice and could not express any opinions on Song Linchu’s previous relationship, he was not an old-fashioned person who would demand purity from his partner. As long as they were together and did not cheat, it was enough. However, jealousy was something that did not discriminate between the novice and veterans.
When Tan Yue thought about how Song Linchu might have once cuddled with Tan Mingqing in the same way, he wanted to beat his useless nephew.
The first thing a certain useless nephews did upon waking up on New Year’s Day was to sneeze loudly.
Song Linchu nearly jumped up, “How is that possible! I, I…”
He blushed, “I never slept in the same bed as him.”
Tan Yue’s jealousy was eased when he heard this.
He suppressed the urge to smirk, reached out and rubbed Song Linchu’s messy hair, saying softly, “Hmm, I lied to you. Your sleeping posture is particularly good. Go change your clothes now.”
Song Linchu snorted and generously forgave this stinky straight steel man who couldn’t sleep but still spread rumors about him.
They went downstairs together. Everyone else had slept late last night and had yet to wake up. Only Grandpa Tan, who slept little and woke up early, had already finished a set of Tai Chi and was getting ready to wash his hands and have breakfast. He saw them come downstairs and said, “Oh, I thought you two were going to sleep until noon.”
Song Linchu smiled and said, “My biological clock is not used to it.”
Grandpa Tan looked at Song Linchu’s lips and said meaningfully, “Young man, energy is certainly a good thing.”
Last night was probably eventful yet Song Linchu could still wake up early like this. Did his grandson have some problems?!
Grandpa Tan looked at his grandson with concern and saw two large dark circles under Tan Yue’s eyes, and he looked a bit tired. On the other hand, Song Linchu had a rosy complexion and a spirited appearance.
Grandpa Tan became even more worried.
“You can go back after having lunch today.” Grandpa Tan said.
Tan Yue refused directly, “No need, Grandpa. We still have something to do.”
“No!” Grandpa Tan’s tone was firm. “You must have lunch here!”
Tan Yue: “…”
Tan Yue and Song Linchu looked at each other, not understanding what Grandpa Tan meant. However, since he had said so, they had to stay.
Grandpa Tan called the chef over and whispered something in his ear. The chef nodded continuously, indicating that he understood.
So at noon, on the dining table, Tan Yue saw a table of dishes that gave him a headache: garlic oysters, nourishing mutton, stir-fried eggs with chives…
Why did he agree to stay for lunch?
poor tan yue, everybody thinks he can’t perform, lol
Lmao, not the grandpa also doubting Tan Yue’s ability
Thanks for the update
You’re welcome Stephanie!
