CH 70.1

Chu Yan was stunned for a moment before rushing over, excitement and surprise painted all over his face. “Erge, you–”

“I’m fine. I’ll leave the people in the cockpit to you,” Chu Rong interrupted him as he picked up Qiao Zhiya and went inside the house.

One the way, he met Gu Yan’an and Chu Huai, who ran out once they heard the commotion. Chu Rong nodded to them hastily. Without having time to say anything, he just carried Qiao Zhiya, who was shaking and crying, back to his room.

“This is…” Gu Yan’an was happy and worried at the same time. She turned around and wanted to chase Chu Rong’s room to ask about the situation.

Chu Huai hurriedly pressed her shoulders and motioned her not to go.

On the other side, Chu Yan, who climbed into the cockpit of the mecha out of curiosity, was so frightened that his eyes widened. He quickly turned his head and shouted, “Dage! Come on! There are two people in Erge’s cockpit! One of them had his hand covered in blood, and another one had fainted. Call the doctor quickly!”

Chu Huai and Gu Yan’an were shocked. They ran towards the mecha quickly, ignoring Chu Rong who seemed uninjured.

Inside his room, Chu Rong glanced at the small objects and sporadic blood stains scattered on the floor and frowned. He walked to the single sofa to put Qiao Zhiya down, but Qiao Zhiya seemed to be frightened and hugged him tighter, crying. His voice was quieter, intersped with hiccups.

“Don’t… don’t leave…”

His voice was thin, like a murmur. Mixed with sobbing noises and uncontrollable hiccups, he sounded very pitiful.

‘He actually cried like this.’

Chu Rong only felt that his heart was ripped to pieces with the voice, and he felt like he was breathless. He no longer tried to let him go, instead tightened his arms and stroked his back, whispering, “Okay, I won’t leave, but you’re injured, I have to help you take a look.”

Qiao Zhiya just shook his head and mumbled “It doesn’t matter” while tilting his head and rubbing his face. His ears were half-folded, and he felt limbless, lethargy claiming his body.

Chu Rong turned his head and kissed his ear, turned around and sat on the sofa, put him in his arms, and looked down at the blood on his body.

Most of the blood stains were on the knees of his trousers. He touched his knees first, but did not find a wound. He turned his eyes and found a few vague bloody fingerprints on his clothes. He frowned and wanted to pull Qiao Zhiya’s arm, but the youth’s grip on Chu Rong was tight. He asked, “Is your hand hurt?”

Qiao Zhiya thought that Qhu Rong was about to let go of him again, so he tightened his grip even more. He even pushed Chu Rong so he would sit on top of the taller man. He shook his head and was very much unwilling to be left.

Chu Rong had no choice but to let Qiao Zhiya handle him as he pleased until he calmed down. Slowly, he released his spiritual power to surround the two of them.

A familiar aura surrounded him, and the chest he leaned on was real and warm, no longer like a piece of pixel like the VR’s avatar. Qiao Zhiya’s mood gradually calmed down, his crying gradually became weaker, and he laid on him obediently. Nudging him gently from time to time until he stopped moving.

“Don’t worry, I’m fine,” Sensing his silence, Chu Rong rubbed the back of his head and comforted him in a low voice, then tried to touch his arm and said, “Didn’t you say you would look at me when I come back? Do you want me to put the ring on you personally? I will put it on you now. Once you have that ring on, we will never be separated again.”

Qiao Zhiya, who was still a little resistant, slowly relaxed his arm after hearing Chu Rong’s promise. He relaxed one of his hands, but the other still had that iron grip.

His left hand was pulled off first. Although there was some dried blood on it, there was no wound. Chu Rong frowned, kissed his ear, and continued to coax him, “Not this hand, the other one.”

Qiao Zhiya slowly regained his senses, so he obediently took off his other hand and leaned closer into his arms.

After stretching out his right hand, Chu Rong immediately frowned at the thin blood stain covering half of his palm and the wound on his index finger that was obviously bitten by teeth. He held his wrist and took out one from the space button. The medicine washed the wound, and when Chu Rong saw that the youth was shrinking back in pain, a flash of hot anger and sharp distress washed over him. “Did you bite this yourself? Why did you do that?”

Qiao Zhiya lowered his head and put his face against his chest. He let Chu Rong hold his hand obediently.

Chu Rong couldn’t ask any more, so he quickly treated his wound with gentle movements. He held his face, lowered her head and kissed his lips. ‘They say that to comfort your frightened lover, it’s better to use home remedies.’

Qiao Zhiya was stunned. He immediately raised his arms to wrap around his neck, and responded awkwardly.

The kiss was passionate and long. It wasn’t until Qiao Zhiya began to lose his breath that his body was soft enough for Chu Rong to pry easily. The taller man then touched his forehead, looked at the youth’s swollen eyes with glistening tears. He whispered, “I’m sorry for making you worry.”

Qiao Zhiya shook his head and squirmed in Chu Rong’s embrace.

Chu Rong hugged him tightly and kissed the top of his head lovingly. His eyes swept over the scattered objects and blood stains on the floor. When he saw that the ring he put on Qiao Zhiya was mixed in that mess. The more he thought about it, the more something was wrong.

The ground was full of things he had given to Qiao Zhiya. With Qiao Zhiya’s character, he would definitely not leave these things lying around, especially the ring.

But now they are scattered on the floor haphazardly, with Qiao Zhiya’s blood stains around them. Combined with Qiao Zhiya’s behavior of waiting in the yard in advance, his strange powers and the weird things he knows, these things and the blood stains seemed to have a purpose.

“Don’t hurt yourself like this again.” He felt increasingly sad and couldn’t help but whisper.

Qiao Zhiya’s calmed down mood got out of control again because of his familiar reprimand. He didn’t want to be discovered, so he simply turned his head and buried his face on his chest, and started sobbing. His breath became short instead.

Chu Rong immediately noticed that he was crying again. He gently stroked his back, and said in a slower voice, “I’m not really lecturing you.”

Qiao Zhiya mumbled his response, but he still couldn’t suppress his crying.

Chu Rong was so distressed that he simply put him on the bed. He leaned over and touched his face. Seeing the wet eyelashes and red nose, he lowered his head and kissed the corner of the youth’s eyes. Then, he moved lower and kissed his lips again.

This time the kiss was more intense than the previous one, and Qiao Zhiya soon forgot to cry. He clung onto Chu Rong, tried to breathe through his nose. He opened his mouth slightly, raised his head and accepted his intimacy request readily.

After a long time, Chu Rong’s movements gradually became gentler. Finally, he carefully pressed Qiao Zhiya’s already red and swollen lips, stepped away and lay beside him, pulled him into his arms, and pulled up the quilt to cover him. “Go to sleep. I’ll make breakfast for you when you wake up.”

Qiao Zhiya’s mood finally calmed down. He looked up at him and asked in a low voice, “Will you still be here when I wake up?”

“Yes,” Chu Rong said as he brushed Qiao Zhiya’s messy bangs. He leaned over to kiss his forehead. “I’ll always be here.”

The warm, familiar aura blanketed over him. Qiao Zhiya hazily nodded, feeling comforted by the gentle patting on his back. Once he closed his eyes, he quickly fell asleep, still clinging on Chu Rong.

After making sure that the youth was asleep, Chu Rong took out his arm, touched the mental simulator on his ear, then took out a few pieces of jade and put them on the pillow. He quietly stood up, covered up Qiao Zhiya with a quilt, and went to the bathroom to get a basin of warm water.

After helping Qiao Zhiya briefly clean up, he tidied up himself. Chu Rong then finally got back into bed, and cuddled with Qiao Zhiya. After days of constantly being alert, pushing himself to the limit, he now finally felt safe. Sleepiness quickly got a hold on him.

Qiao Zhiya woke up several times in the middle of the night, and Chu Rong also woke up every time. The two of them finally slept well until the early morning, and of course they both slept late the next day.

Qiao Zhiya was the first to wake up. After opening his eyes, he stared at the buttons of Chu Rong’s pajamas for a while, then finally jolted completely awake. After hurriedly moving a little, he looked up at Chu Rong’s face. He saw that Chu Rong was still fast asleep. There were shallow dark circles under his eyes.

He put his arms around Chu Rong’s waist, inching closer until he could put his ear on Chu Rong’s chest, listening to the rhythmic sound of his heartbeat.

‘He’s really back. It’s not a dream.’

He felt at ease and drifted off to sleep again.

When Qiao Zhiya woke up again, he was alone. He sat up in panic and heard a vague sound of water coming from the bathroom. He quickly got out of bed and ran over, opened the door and walked towards the bathroom. The figure who was standing under the showerhead and taking a shower rushed towards him.

The hot water spilled immediately wetted his hair and clothes. Chu Rong was knocked back by him and took a step back before he could stand still. He hugged him back and immediately turned off the shower. He frowned and asked, “What’s wrong? “

Qiao Zhiya nuzzled against Chu Rong’s chest and said aggrievedly, “You said you would always be here.”

Chu Rong looked down at him, sighing silently in his heart. He touched his wet hair, glancing at the half-wet pajamas on his body. After a pause, he asked, “Do you want to take a shower with me?”

Qiao Zhiya didn’t care what he was asking, he only knew that he didn’t want to leave Chu Rong now, so he nodded vigorously and tightened his hold.

‘Alright, then let’s wash together…’

Ancestor Chu, who really enjoyed his sweetheart being sticky, nodded. He stretched out his arm and turned on the shower again, then smoothed a handful of Qiao Zhiya’s semi-wet hair. He put his hand on his shoulder, slowly slid down, grabbed the hem of his clothes and suddenly lifted it up.

Qiao Zhiya passively let go, letting Chu Rong stripped his top pajamas off.

The warm water was poured directly on his skin. He put down his hands in a daze, looked down at his naked chest, and then at Chu Rong’s equally naked body. His eyes moved to a place he shouldn’t have.

In a fraction of a second, he finally realized where his eyes had wandered into. His face turned red, he turned around and wanted to run away.

Chu Rong easily pulled him back, threw away the pajama shirt in his hand, and glanced at Qiao Zhiya’s wet pants, which had stuck onto his skin. Some lewd pictures flashed through his mind, and his lower abdomen felt hot.

As he frowned, he decisively stripped the pants too. Shaking off his disharmonious thought, he said, “You didn’t take a shower last night. Let’s shower together. Don’t run away.”

A mere bald chicken can’t beat a fully-fledged wolf, so Qiao Zhiya could only stand under the shower with a red face and naked body. His ears curled up shyly, hands covering his crotch area. He let Chu Rong slather soap all over his body, knowing that Chu Rong touched him all over.

Chu Rong also felt uncomfortable. His body was already very excited, but he relied on his extraordinary willpower to squash any untowards thought thoroughly. Then he quickly pulled off a bath towel, wrapped it around the youth and sent him out of the bathroom. He closed the door and changed the setting of the shower into fully cold.

Seeing his hard work and forbearance, Qiao Zhiya felt ashamed and distressed. The panic in the morning had disappeared, so he quickly wiped himself dry and dressed up. Then, he patiently waited for Chu Rong to finish showering, ready to have breakfast with him.

When Chu Rong came out, he saw Qiao Zhiya was waiting for him like a shy little wife. His little “wife” looked at him with an adoring look, giving him a smile without any hesitation.

Without much thought, he gently pulled the youth into his arms, and started to kiss him deeply.

‘If I can’t have the full-course meal, I can settle for a dessert.’
