Ji Xuan forced himself to calm down.No. Now isnât the right time.Gege is still angry at me.He bent down to help take off Ye Jiaâs shoes. As his icy cold hand held the young manâs thin ankle, because of the difference in body temperature, the other party instinctively retreated but was forcibly pulled back by Ji Xuan.âCold.â The young manâs voice sounded from above.His tone was flat and somewhat slow.Ji Xuan raised his head and looked at him.Ye Jia had his head lowered to look down at him. His hair was a little messy and it looked fluffy with the light shining behind him.Ji Xuanâs hand slowly moved upwards. He held the other partyâs calf over their pants.âAnd now?âYe Jia thought for a moment before lowly humming in agreement.He was being unbelievably honest.Ji Xuan asked tentatively, âGege, who am I?ââJi Xuan.â Ye Jia slowly answered.âAnd?â Ji Xuan leaned closer. With the light shining down from above, the shadow that formed under him seemed like it had a life of its own. It slowly encased the young man, trapping him, âWhat else do you call me?âIn normal circumstances, Ye Jia would have already pushed him aside.But at this moment he just fell into thought for a moment before answering slowly, âAâXuan.âThe jut in Ji Xuanâs throat bobbed. His scarlet eyes shone a dark light and his gaze that felt all too tangible slowly moved across every inch of the other partyâs body.Ye Jia seemed to have noticed the change. He raised his eyes and looked at the man trapping him between his arms and couldnât help but furrow his brows.Ji Xuan squeezed his eyes shut and gritted his teeth.No. He must endure.A long time later, he slowly breathed out and opened his eyes.
The dark desire in his eyes was successfully suppressed.Ji Xuan raised his eyes and looked at the frowning young man before him. He raised his hand and pressed his cold fingers onto his creased brows.âDonât frown.âYe Jia blinked a few times and then turned his head and used his cheek to chase after Ji Xuanâs hand.Ji Xuan was stunned.As burning hot skin rubbed against his hand, sparks flew and fire burned.ââŠ...Cold.â Ye Jia half leaned against Ji Xuanâs hand and slowly said this.As he said this, he also proceeded to press his forehead against his hand.Although the colour of his face was no different from usual, it was hot from the alcohol. To Ji Xuan, it was as hot as lava.Ye Jia could feel the icy cold object being taken away from him.He turned his head and looked over at the bed.Ji Xuan stood in place, staring at Ye Jia with repressed eyes.A long time later, he said through gritted teeth, ââŠ..Go sleep.âYe Jia lowly let out a hum of agreement but he didnât move.He sat there in daze for a few seconds before looking up at Ji Xuan, âI havenât brushed my teeth yet.âââŠâŠâŠ..âJi Xuan could only support Ye Jia back up.The young manâs body was thin and lean and the curve of his waist was perfect to hold.Ji Xuan expressionlessly felt him up a few more times.Although he couldnât have a proper taste of it yet, using this chance to feel it up a little should be fine.
He brought Ye Jia into the bathroom.Ye Jia sat on the edge of the bathtub with his messy hair brushed back, revealing his clear and smooth forehead.Ji Xuan bent down before Ye Jia with a toothbrush in his hand.He squeezed some toothpaste onto the toothbrush, âOpen your mouth.âYe Jia opened his mouth.His lips were thin and usually almost colourless but it was at this moment a faint red colour from the alcohol, making his teeth appear particularly white. The tip of his tongue darted out briefly, looking smooth and soft.Ji Xuan could feel himself reaching his limit.He hurriedly stuffed the toothbrush into Ye Jiaâs mouth, âHere.âYe Jia blinked a few times. He didnât comment on the other partyâs stiff attitude and just proceeded to hold his toothbrush and slowly started brushing.Ji Xuan stood to the side, deliberately putting some space between them.He raised his eyes.In the mirror, the manâs scarlet eyes were burning hot. His pursed lips and tense shoulders showed that he seemed to be enduring something.Ji Xuan was experiencing terrible torment.He could hear his ears roaring. It was as if he was the one who was drunk, not Ye Jia. That burning heat penetrated into the deepest parts of his soul, tormenting him. It made it difficult for him to think clearly.The voice urging him to endure grew smaller and smaller. It was now so small, it was almost inaudible.Suddenly, there was a gurgle of water.The sound of running water broke the silence in the small room. Ji Xuan looked over in surprise.Ye Jia had at some point in time finished brushing his teeth.He was bending over the bathtub, reaching towards the tap. Steaming hot water poured out, instantly drenching his clothes.Ye Jia seemed to have sensed Ji Xuanâs gaze.He slowly looked over and said:âShower.â
His thin shirt clung tightly to his body, highlighting his smooth and firm muscles. Even the pale and delicate texture of his skin was vaguely visible through the material.Ji Xuan could feel a string in his mind snap.*All of a sudden, Ye Jia found himself slammed against the wall. The cold and hard touch coming from behind pierced through his nerves like a needle, instantly sobering his mind.âŠ.Whatâs going on?He seemed to hear water flowing non-stop. The bright lights made him a little dizzy.Where is this?But before Ye Jia could think about it, he found himself pressed against the wall.His lips were roughly licked and bitten. He found it difficult to breathe.The temperature around him seemed to be rapidly soaring. Ye Jia could feel that his cheeks were shockingly hot. Only the body before him was able to cool him down. In a dizzy state, he found himself sinking deeper and deeper.But something was screaming out in his head.He could instinctively sense that he was in danger.Ye Jia lifted his heavy eyelids with great difficulty.A manâs familiar face inched closer. His tall nose and defined brows glistened with water vapour and his eyes were burning hot.âLet goâŠâŠâ Ye Jia was surprised by his own voice.It was so hoarse, it was hard for one to make out his original voice.Ji Xuan seemed to have noticed that Ye Jia had sobered up. He let out a low laugh, âGege, youâre awake.âHe bent down and rubbed his nose against the other personâs nose:âItâs too late.âYe Jia was closely pressed against the other personâs chest.
He could feel something rough under his palm.In his shaky line of sight, Ye Jia took in the large scar on Ji Xuanâs chest that looked particularly eye-catching against his pale skin ---- After Ji Xuanâs lies were exposed, he had removed the illusory wounds, revealing the two that overlapped with one another.The first one was from when Ye Jia personally cut his chest open and the second was from Ji Xuan forcibly transferring Ye Jiaâs wound to his own body.Ye Jia couldnât help but ask:ââŠ..Does it hurt?âThe manâs actions suddenly came to a stop.A long time later, he whispered, âYou can touch it.âHe lowered his head and rubbed against Ye Jiaâs lips, âIf you touch it, it wonât hurt anymore.âYe Jia felt as if something was stuck in his throat.Ji Xuan asked hoarsely, âGege, will you do it?âYe Jia didnât answer.He retracted the hand that was placed against the other partyâs chest and used it to cover half his face.The ears and neck that were still exposed were bright red.Amidst the confusion, he nodded.*Ye Jia hadnât turned up to work for two days straight.The chief of the Combat Department was a little worried. He wanted to give him a call but was stopped by Wei Yuechu.She said, âDonât worry. Brother Ye is fine.ââŠ.Probably.On the third day.The shadow ghost received a top secret order from King.---- Find out what drinks were ordered at the Bureau gathering that night.---- And bring them all over.
