TLC: Onlyfornovels
After returning to the hotel, Liang Muqiu couldn’t wait to take a shower. He was sweating slightly from work and his hair was plastered to his neck.
However, as he grabbed his bathrobe and entered the bathroom, he realised that the showerhead was broken and there was no water. Even after turning it to maximum, there was only a faint trickling of water.
Unresigned, he tried a few more times, but the result remained the same. He came out with his bathrobe and said to Cen Nan, “We may need to ask the front desk to change our room. The shower head in the bathroom is broken.”
It wasn’t a big deal, just a bit of a hassle.
While Liang Muqiu called the room service, Cen Nan smoothly packed their luggage so that it would be more convenient to move later.
The house keepers, who were two young girls, came quickly. After checking the bathroom, they couldn’t help apologising.
Liang Muqiu didn’t want to make things difficult for them either and said, “It’s fine, just let us change rooms. It’s getting late and we should go to bed early.”
However, the housekeeper sporting a high ponytail hesitated, “Sir, we only have one river view suite remaining, it’s on the same floor as yours and the layout is the same. But it’s a king bedroom suite, do you mind that?”
Liang Muqiu instantly understood.
There were only a few suites on the floor where they were staying. Their room had two beds but the suite next door only had one big bed. That meant he had to share a bed with Cen Nan.
He gave Cen Nan a quick glance.
Cen Nan stood straight with his face unchanged and looked at him. He couldn’t tell what the other was thinking.
He hesitated, “Is there no other room? It’s fine if they aren’t as good.”
The two housekeepers were very embarrassed. “It’s peak season currently and the only room left is a single room, there is no twin bed room. I’m really sorry.”
The two little girls scrunch their forehead. They had probably just graduated and their faces were young.

If Liang Muqiu was really determined to avoid this issue, he could contact other hotels but he lowered his eyes and contemplated for a while, not wanting to be unreasonable.

Ten minutes later, Liang Muqiu and Cen Nan moved to room 6003 next door.
This suite had a wider view than the one they stayed in before. Beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows was the Songyun River. It was evening and the river was still glimmering. The living room and cloakroom were furnished and the bedroom only contained a king bed.
Liang Muqiu glanced around the room, saw the roses in the vase and suspected that this was actually a honeymoon suite.
But he couldn’t be bothered at all, sleeping was sleeping.
He picked up his robe and went back into the bathroom.
The sound of water splashing in the bathroom travelled to Cen Nan’s ears through the layer of frosted glass.
The sound of the water was like a murmur that disrupted people’s meditation. Not to mention the fact that Cen Nan wasn’t a Buddhist monk.
He sat on the sofa reading a magazine that showcased scenic spots for tourism but the lakes and mountains didn’t enter his eyes at all. The waves of water in front of his eyes swayed and within it, an image of Liang Muqiu emerged. His lips were full and soft, stained with water droplets all the way to the collarbone.
After an unknown amount of time, Liang Muqiu finished washing and walked out while wiping his hair.
Cen Nan raised his head from the sofa and looked over calmly.
Liang Muqiu was blowing his hair. The summer nightgown made of silk was already light and soft. A loose belt easily outlined a thin waist. The nightgown was not too short, only revealing two thin white wrists and ankles, but it was this restrained display that had a kind of elegant beauty, inciting people to look for more.
Cen Nan’s gaze fell on the back of Liang Muqiu’s neck which was lined with navy blue silk. The soft white neck was fragile and beautiful like a swan.
He had caressed it many times, dropping teeth marks on the fresh snow-like skin.
If Liang Muqiu turned around at this time, he would have been frightened by Cen Nan’s gaze. In the dimly lit room, it was like a predator looking at his prey.
But Liang Muqiu didn’t. He lowered his head, scooped out some face cream and smeared it roughly on his face while urging Cen Nan, “You also take a bath quickly, don’t dawdle around, you’ll disturb my sleep later.”
Cen Nan didn’t reply and just nodded.
His eyes lingered on Liang Muqiu’s back for a while, then he put down the magazine and entered the bathroom.
Although he was mentally prepared, Liang Muqiu was still a bit uncomfortable when he slept in the same bed as Cen Nan.
Most of the lights in the room were switched off, leaving only a small warm lamp on the table. Once the atmosphere darkened, the other five senses would become particularly sensitive.
Liang Muqiu could smell the shampoo on Cen Nan. It wasn’t prepared by the hotel, but was his own. The fresh citrus smell mixed with a hint of bitter orange, was an uplifting fragrance that was not quite like Cen Nan.
Liang Muqiu also had the same fragrance on him.
He had also used Cen Nan’s shampoo.
The fragrance of their bodies lingered and tangled in the air despite the distance between the two.
Liang Muqiu stared at the script on his leg absentmindedly, but actually, nothing entered his mind.
He knew that Cen Nan was watching the video from his senior year.
Liu Fengtao wasn’t loyal and actually sent the video to Cen Nan during dinner.
It was almost twelve o’clock now and Cen Nan wasn’t doing any work at all, only watching the short video with a focus comparable to when he was studying law.
Liang Muqiu couldn’t even remember the contents of the short video. Although Cen Nan lowered the volume, there was still a little noise which made him a little curious and a little ashamed.
He still had an impression of his skill back in senior year and he knew wouldn’t have turned into a movie star after a short film. He could only buckle his toes in embarrassment.
Thinking of this, he felt a little resentful again and glared at Cen Nan, thinking that this person must have done it on purpose.
Probably because his gaze was too noticeable, Cen Nan raised his eyes from the video and asked him, “Why are you staring at me, do you want to watch too?”
Of course Liang Muqiu didn’t want to.
But before he could speak, Cen Nan’s hand landed on his waist and with a little force, Liang Muqiu was pulled over and crashed into Cen Nan’s arms.
Cen Nan’s chest muscles were sturdy but it didn’t hurt much.
However, when Liang Muqiu fell into the other’s arms, his lips almost touched Cen Nan’s collarbone.
His back stiffened.
But Cen Nan didn’t seem to notice. He wrapped him in his arms and gently tapped his shoulder to quieten him.
“Looks like it’s time for you to appear,”Cen Nan said.
Liang Muqiu cast his eyes on the video suspiciously. At this time, he remembered a little bit of the plot of the short film. At that time, it was just an assignment and he played it casually.
They had gone for a bold approach and filmed a story of a female gangster boss and a small policeman falling in love and killing each other.
It sounded very heart wrenching, but Liang Muqiu didn’t play the little policeman.
He played the second male lead, the little lover of the female gangster.
Cen Nan, your own mother can only help you here ~
