Everything in front of him seemed to be an illusion. Feeling the wetness in his mouth, Lin Dongyang reached out and hugged Qiao Yichen’s waist without thinking, giving a faintly discernible response.
The clumsy Qiao Yichen didn’t have much skill to speak of. Before today, the cold natured man had never kissed someone before.
Their breathing was getting faster and faster and the temperature of their breath and their bodies had risen.
Wanting to be cool and comfortable, Lin Dongyang let go of Qiao Yichen’s waist and covered his eyes, saying softly, “I’m so dizzy.”
Qiao Yichen rose slightly, propping his arm up on the sofa to block the light above his head for Lin Dongyang. He then removed Lin Dongyang’s hand that was covering his eyes and said somewhat reproachfully, “Who let you drink so much alcohol?”
Lin Dongyang giggled, “I’m happy.”
Qiao Yichen also laughed, “Why are you happy?”
Lin Dongyang pursed his lips, refusing to say, “I won’t tell you.”
Qiao Yichen naturally wouldn’t let go of this opportunity to find the truth. Seeing that Lin Dongyang didn’t want to say anything, he first responded, “Then, don’t tell me.” Immediately, he changed the question and asked, “Do you have someone you like?”
“I have.” Lin Dongyang blurted out subconsciously.
“Who?” Qiao Yichen patiently waited for his answer.
Lin Dongyang smiled and pointed at his nose, “You ah.”
Qiao Yichen smiled contentedly. He wanted to hear these words from Lin Dongyang’s mouth, it didn’t matter how many times he heard it, he wouldn’t get tired of it. This also made up for the regret of not getting a response this afternoon. He reached out and touched the side of Lin Dongyang’s face. His voice was soft and patiently alluring, “Accept me, I will only feel at ease if you accept.”
However, Lin Dongyang shook his head, and frowned slightly.
Qiao Yichen’s heart sank a little, and he asked, “Why?”
“I’m afraid you’re lying to me.”
When Lin Dongyang realised he was bent, he was confused and had trouble accepting it. So, when Qiao Yichen suddenly confessed his love for him, in addition to being thrilled beyond words, there was a deep fear in the bottom of his heart.
“It’s me who should be afraid,” Qiao Yichen lowered his head again and touched Lin Dongyang’s lips like a dragonfly touching the water, but the calm heart still rippled layer by layer, and it was impossible to return to being calm.

“Accept me.” Qiao Yichen continued to seduce him without giving up. Sure enough, after Lin Dongyang was confused for a long time, his thoughts were led astray by the voice that kept echoing in his ears, until he finally agreed, “Okay.”

The sharp ringing of a phone sounded, and having been disturbed, Qiao Yichen’s face froze instantly, with a speed comparable to the face-changing of the Sichuan opera. After picking up his phone he questioned in an irritated tone, “What is it?”
“Why do you seem so angry?” An Qi’s playful voice came from the other end of the phone.
“If you don’t say it, I’m hanging up.” Qiao Yichen’s tone was full of impatience, completely different from the mischievous person he had been just now.
“Hey, don’t, don’t, I just wanted to ask if you will come back to the dorm tonight?”
“No. Don’t bother me again.”
‘Du du du…’ The busy tone of the mobile phone sounded. An Qi held back for a long time before finally uttering “Beast!” He knew what Qiao Yichen was doing when he drove out in a hurry at night but he thought that picking someone up would take half an hour at most, who knew that he would stay out all night. There could only be one reason why Qiao Yichen wasn’t coming back: that is, senior must be there.
Early the next morning, Lin Dongyang opened his eyes and stared blankly at the familiar surroundings for a long time. Seeing the silver-gray curtains that covered the entire french-window, the clean white walls and the single wardrobe made him immediately understand where he was.
“How can I be here?” Lin Dongyang whispered to himself. Just as he wanted to get up, he immediately stiffened after feeling the touch of the duvet. Then, he lifted up the corner of the quilt in disbelief and looked down. His face instantly became like a frosted eggplant, and his whole person withered.
Scattered fragments of memory flashed through his mind, and he vaguely remembered that last night he seemed to have done something extremely outrageous. At the time he was in a daze and just thought he was dreaming, but now, the current scene was like a slap to his face, loudly telling him: You weren’t dreaming last night!
Qiao Yichen happened to walk into the bedroom at that moment and when he saw Lin Dongyang was awake, he said, “Get up and eat breakfast.”
Lin Dongyang stared at Qiao Yichen for more than ten seconds, but the other party remained calm and collected. In the end, he couldn’t see any clues, so he asked weakly, “How am I here?”
Qiao Yichen: “You were drunk.”
Lin Dongyang: “Then, why am I naked?”
Qiao Yichen crossed his arms, looked at him with interest, and replied, “You took them off yourself.”
Lin Dongyang: “You’re joking! How could I possibly take them off myself…” Thinking of his fragmented memories of last night, he hesitantly stopped. A moment later, he asked uncertainly, “I really took them off myself?”
Qiao Yichen maintained the same posture as earlier without saying anything, just looking at him quietly with a smile reflected in his eyes. Such a gentle Qiao Yichen made Lin Dongyang gulp, and he said with a complicated feeling, “Did we do it?”
“No.” Qiao Yichen said frankly.
“Then…” Then, is my memory of last night wrong? Obviously…
Qiao Yichen interrupted him and said seriously, “I wouldn’t force you to do anything when you’re unconscious.”
“…” Lin Dongyang rubbed his sore temples and thought: how did it turn into Qiao Yichen forcing him? He remembered that he was the one who had pinned the other person under his body and committed a beastly act, but he couldn’t remember the rest. It was really a drunken mistake!
“Get up and eat,” Qiao Yichen reminded him.
Still lying in bed and not getting up, Lin Dongyang asked him awkwardly, “What about my clothes?”
“Wear whatever you want from the wardrobe,” This time Qiao Yichen consciously walked out of the bedroom and closed the door for him thoughtfully along the way. Lin Dongyang couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, he really might have thought too much, maybe he just slept peacefully all night.
“Simply a disgrace!” He lifted his hand and slapped his face a few times to cheer himself up, then he got up and walked to the wardrobe to pick out a random set of clothes.
‘Bang’, an exquisitely wrapped, blue gift box fell out of the wardrobe. The gift box was about the size of the palm of his hand, with a silver logo printed on it, and very delicate packaging.
Lin Dongyang bent down and picked it up in his hand. He was afraid that he had broken something valuable of Qiao Yichen’s at this moment, so he thought of opening the box to see if there was any damage.
Lying in the gift box was a watch with a face the same shade of jewel-blue as the gift box. The clock hands, at that moment, were moving normally, second by second.
Lin Dongyang recognized at a glance that this watch was his first return gift to Qiao Yichen. Because of this watch, he was forced to work part-time to make a living, so he remembered it well. He hadn’t expected that after all the changes that happened in the middle, Qiao Yichen still kept it in his wardrobe. Meanwhile, he had almost forgotten about it.
“Are you done?” Qiao Yichen’s voice came from outside the room. Lin Dongyang hurriedly put the watch back on the shelf of the wardrobe, and said as he put on his clothes, “Just a moment.”
When he walked out of the bedroom, Qiao Yichen was sitting on the sofa drinking milk. Hearing the opening of the door, he turned his head to look at Lin Dongyang. The embarrassing situation from just now made Lin Dongyang unable to look directly at Qiao Yichen at this time, so in a panic he went directly into the bathroom.
Two seconds later, he rushed out of the bathroom and ran straight to Qiao Yichen, pointing to several ambiguous bruises on his neck and collarbone. He asked, “I thought we didn’t do it?! Is this a dog bite ah?!”
To think that he had still been worried just now that he had done something to aggravate Qiao Yichen after getting drunk.
Qiao Yichen, who had been scolded as a dog, drank the milk in his cup calmly and replied, “I really didn’t take the last step.”
The corner of Lin Dongyang’s mouth twitched, “Did you do everything except the last step?”
“En,” Qiao Yichen admitted openly and honestly.
His attitude made Lin Dongyang momentarily speechless. He didn’t know whether he should keep asking or not. Finally, he suppressed his sigh and went to wash his face and brush his teeth before eating breakfast.
Qiao Yichen went into the kitchen and poured a cup of hot milk and brought it to him. Seeing that he wasn’t talking to him, he asked, “Are you angry?”
“I’m not really angry. I just think that the two of us are developing very fast,” too fast to be true. Obviously they hadn’t yet laid the foundation for a good relationship, so he was afraid that one day this dream would shatter. He wanted to genuinely feel that he was needed.
Qiao Yichen: “It’s not fast. I chased you for half a year.”
Lin Dongyang asked doubtfully, “We’ve only known each other for half a year.”
“I was thinking about it from the moment I took the initiative to approach you,” Qiao Yichen smiled and continued, “Live with me from now on.”
Lin Dongyang was stunned, he looked around and asked, “Live here? together?”
Qiao Yichen took out an object and put it on the coffee table, then pushed it in front of Lin Dongyang. The metal rubbing against the glass made a not-so-pleasant sound as if it was scratching at Lin Dongyang’s heart.
“Right, live here together.”
What he pushed in front of Lin Dongyang was the key to his apartment.
Lin Dongyang stared at the key for a long time, his heart unable to calm down. Qiao Yichen was willing to give him the key to his apartment. This straightforward action was like a torrent of water powerfully washing away the worries that existed in his heart.
Qiao Yichen withdrew his hand, and didn’t wait for Lin Dongyang to say whether he agreed or not, before saying, “In the future, this place can be decorated to your liking,” He pointed to the empty hallway, “I like to keep things simple when I live alone, but now you can fill this place with all of your favorite furniture or decorations.
“Qiao Yichen…” Lin Dongyang slowly called out his name, as if he could taste three different flavors from these three syllables, each of which was unforgettable.
“Lin Dongyang, you can stay with me without worry.” This was the first time Qiao Yichen had called him by his name in person. The first time in half a year.
Lin Dongyang’s blood surged to his head, and his breathing became messy in an instant.
Qiao Yichen deliberately teased him. “Shy? You were quite bold last night.”
“*Cough cough cough*…!” Lin Dongyang was immediately distracted by his words and couldn’t stop coughing.
Qiao Yichen got up and patted his back to help him calm down. After his coughing fit subsided, Lin Dongyang looked at him and hesitated to speak. His embarrassed appearance made Qiao Yichen feel very flattered.
“Didn’t we do nothing?” Lin Dongyang himself wasn’t confident enough in his memory.
“Do you believe it?”
“…” Lin Dongyang felt that he couldn’t be alone in a room with Qiao Yichen. Even though sometimes his EQ would be offline, he could scheme against people without shame.
