Black SkyCh50 - Face Slapping

pr: roki

Chu Si stood in place for a while and heard the rustling sound of clothes brushing against each other from the bathroom. A moment later, the sound of running water drifted out. Yscnaw

Everything was very natural, as if there really weren’t any problems.

“Are you sure you don’t need any help?” Chu Si asked.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

The sound of the water was probably too loud, and Sa’e Yang couldn’t hear him clearly. “What?”

“Nothing, keep on washing.” Chu Si slightly raised his voice. “If you have any problems, let me know.” SVyXB

“What problems could I possibly have.” Sa’e Yang seemed to be sneering.

“Alright, then.”

Chu Si scanned around the bedroom. Carlos Black’s sense of aesthetics was truly admirable. Perhaps he didn’t have such a thing as a sense of aesthetics at all.

Just like his rugged appearance, he preferred large and scraggly objects, with a chaotic mix of colors and crowded lines.

He could let it pass if that was it, but there were also some pastel white, pink, and blue things mixed in. It really created a sense of incongruity when one remembered Carlos Black’s reputation as the King of the Wanderers.

He didn’t know what to do except shut up and feel amazed.

Chu Si looked expressionlessly at the large pink bed with a rabbit pattern, then at the half-collapsed sofa. Choosing between a bad option and an even worse option, he finally sat down on the sofa.

Truth be told, he wasn’t so willing to lay in someone else’s bed with wounds and bloodstains all over his body. ey1 s6

On the round table next to the sofa was an electronic picture frame, the edges of which had obvious scratches. It was obvious that it had been held many times.

Chu Si glanced at it, but didn’t reach out to pick it up. He retracted his gaze.

He had never had much curiosity about other people’s private affairs, but he could also guess a little about what exactly was displayed within this picture frame.

After all, Carlos Black, who was once known as the King of the Wanderers, was so famous that even Chu Si, who had hardly ever dealt with him, knew that he had a wife and daughter, and lived a happy life for a while. However, he wasn’t able to enjoy it for many years before being beaten back into a single-person family by the City of Silver. dNA2W3

For those years, Carlos Black had hardened himself to live as a god of death, leading his brothers who had also become loners to fight against the City of Silver for decades. It wasn’t until nearly a decade ago that he suddenly changed and stopped fighting hard.

Time was indeed a wonderous thing.

Chu Si nestled in the sofa, his elbow resting on the armrest, loosely supporting his head.

He closed his eyes amidst the sound of water from the bathroom, but the burning sensation on his back shoulder kept him conscious and unable to truly fall asleep. q31cyv

Everything that had happened earlier in the apartment complex flashed through his mind like frames of moving images in a messy sequence, to the point where he couldn’t even tell if he was consciously recalling it or if it was a shallow dream.

An hour and a half had passed, but the sound of water from the bathroom still hadn’t stopped?!

Chu Si froze, frowned, and called out: “Sa’e Yang?”

The sound of water from the bathroom still didn’t stop, but there was no reply, either.

Chu Si furrowed his brows, rising and striding over. “Sa’e?” O8uzeS

“I’m here, what’s the matter?” A low, deep voice came through the sound of the water, fuzzy with a familiar laziness.

“…” Chu Si halted his steps and paused in front of the door. “It’s been an hour and a half, are you taking a shower or cooking yourself into a soup?”

“The latter, how about I share a bowl with you later?” Sa’e Yang’s voice remained lazy, as if he wasn’t putting in any effort, but there was a hint of a smile.

“What on earth are you doing, staying in there for so long?” Chu Si knocked heavily on the door twice. i4G 2b

“Doing something shameless, are you sure you want me to open the door?” Sa’e Yang said.

Chu Si: “…”

He turned around and took two steps away, then suddenly paused and said suspiciously, “Are you…”

After a moment of slight contemplation, Chu Si walked decisively back to the door of the bathroom. “Have those injuries of yours healed yet?” wFWUOf

Sa’e Yang drawled carelessly, “Need you ask? Of course, they’re healed. You may not believe me when I tell you this, but the wound is already as small as a mosquito’s mouth, and in a little while—”

Before he could finish speaking, Chu Si skipped the step of knocking and unceremoniously pushed the door open.

Bang—

The frosted glass door slammed heavily into the wall, intelligently resting there without bouncing back. 2cRXZh

The heavy steam in the bathroom pounced on Chu Si’s face before dispersing in the blink of an eye, and Sa’e Yang’s figure became clear—

He was standing in front of the mirror, his hands propped up on the black countertop, his towel wrapped loosely around his waist.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

He probably thought the excuse he had made would be able to keep Chu Si out, so he didn’t expect the door to be opened so suddenly. When he turned to look at the doorway, his furrowed brow hadn’t been loosened yet.

Chu Si’s gaze swept over the towel, eventually stopping at the side of his waist. ALE41T

A ferocious wound extended down from his ribs and disappeared into the bath towel along with his clear mermaid line.

“You may not believe me when I tell you this, but this is the first time I’ve seen such a small mosquito’s mouth,” Chu Si mocked coldly.

Sa’e Yang: “…”

“Arm,” Chu Si said rigidly. ZsGqUg

Sa’e Yang lifted the intact one.

Chu Si looked at him without saying anything, and he tsked, finally turning obediently to reveal the other—

This wound was even more shocking, going all the way from his shoulder to the back of his hand. If it had been on a normal person, the arm would probably have been ruined.

Without a word, Chu Si walked in and slapped the shower off, the sound of water used to cover the situation coming to a screeching halt. He turned his head with a cold expression and said, “Sa’e Yang, is there any use for your head except adding to your height? You’ve been squatting in the water for an hour and a half with two such long wounds, why don’t you just plant yourself here?” AdXEkS

Sa’e Yang: “…”

“Can you walk? Choose if you want to be carried or dragged,” Chu Si said coldly.

In an extremely rare occurrence, Sa’e Yang took the insult and didn’t even retort or jokingly push the conversation aside.

He blinked at Chu Si, lowered his head to look at the wound on his own body, stood up straight, and walked out of the bathroom… zKDc6B

He looked very… obedient.

“Obedient” was a word that, when put together with Sa’e Yang, was probably a once-in-a-century occurrence.

The whole bedroom fell into a very inexplicable atmosphere—the sound of footsteps, the brush of fabric against the couch, the click of the first-aid kit opening. Although there were many quiet noises, the silence was overpowering.

Because Chu Si remained expressionless, silently staring at Sa’e Yang sitting on the sofa, silently tossing the first-aid kit within reach, silently adjusting the dosage in the syringe. I7YP C

He drew the medication, slapped Sa’e Yang’s uninjured hand away, and bent over with a frown.

The edges of the wound on Sa’e Yang’s arm had blanched and swollen visibly. Chu Si gently pressed twice on the skin next to it with one hand, adjusted the position, and readied the needle.

“Executive, you’re angry.” Sa’e Yang suddenly opened his mouth.

The syringe in Chu Si’s hand paused, and he lifted his eyes, saying, “You shut up.” He then inserted the needle. Q5W4te

The injury to the arm was too long. His face was cold as he injected the medication evenly along the edge, but his movements were light.

Sa’e Yang suddenly smiled. He didn’t speak, but the corners of his mouth were clearly curved.

“Why don’t I poke around your mouth first,” Chu Si said coldly, raising the syringe.

Sa’e Yang raised an eyebrow: “I didn’t speak just now.” zDICd

Chu Si: “What are you smiling for?”

“I can’t even smile?”

Chu Si looked at him expressionlessly.

Sa’e Yang touched the corner of his mouth with his free hand. “Alright, I won’t smile.” 1IucRP

His eyes remained half-lidded as he spoke, seemingly as lazy as ever, but with a faint hint of exhaustion and sleepiness.

Chu Si’s gaze fell between his brows, and he lowered his head again to finish treating the remaining half of the wound.

Two tubes of medication were used for just one arm, and he opened a third tube. While waiting for the syringe to automatically extract the precise dose, he raised his hand and touched Sa’e Yang’s forehead.

Hot to the touch. He was running a fever. ZLOBf1

“Just a normal reaction,” Sa’e Yang said. His arm, which had begun to redden and burn with the medication, hung by the armrest of the sofa, not quite ready to move.

The syringe quickly finished drawing the medication, and Chu Si pressed his fingers to Sa’e Yang’s waist, patiently moving them down along the wound in his ribs.

“Can you hold still?” Chu Si said.

Sa’e Yang lowered his eyes and let out an “oh” sound. After a moment, he suddenly said, “Executive, just stick the needle in, don’t press your fingers.” 5PXDWe

Chu Si didn’t raise his head and snorted coldly. “If I don’t press, the moment you move the slightest bit, the needle will break. By the time I finish treating the wound, there won’t be any needles left in the first-aid kit. Do you want to become a hedgehog?”

The wound was mostly taken care of, with a little bit still hidden under the towel.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

“Fine, go ahead then, I don’t really care.” He spoke in a deep voice that rolled past Chu Si’s ears with a distinct graveliness.

Chu Si’s fingers that touched the edge of the towel paused. DYAm78

The skin next to the wound was hot, and despite knowing that it was the result of the medication’s effects, it was still very reminiscent of another reaction.

Chu Si’s fingers pressed against the side of Sa’e Yang’s mermaid line, and because they were a little tight, the muscles were slightly hard to the touch.

Sa’e Yang propped himself up on the sofa with one hand and suddenly leaned forward, lowering his head.

Chu Si’s eyes narrowed and he tilted his head slightly. Sa’e Yang’s breath hit him right on the neck. “Executive, that moment that was interrupted so many years ago… may I continue it now?” 6I1tfR

  1. sileent squeal OMG. We live for Sae and Dear Executive Chu’s interactions~

    Thanks for the lovely chapter! 🫶

    • In Chinese slang, face-slapping means dealing a blow to an overconfident person. It’s like a slap in the face, hence the name. So the author doesn’t mean literal slapping, she means Executive Chu is going to see through Sa’e’s confident lies and drag him out of the shower to treat his wounds 😌
