    That night, Nie Chuan had a dream. 

  ISY490

    The beginning of the dream was very beautiful. He and Celine were sitting by a window. Sunlight gently streamed in and fell on Celine’s face. Outside, birds flitted by.

    It was just like a scene from a movie. 

  nJGONq

    Nie Chuan supported himself on the windowsill with one hand and leaned down. He was about to kiss Celine when his world suddenly disintegrated into pieces. 

 

    Nie Chuan tried to grab Celine who was scattering into dust. When his hand passed through Celine, it was forcefully clasped by another hand. 

 

F0QYaL

    After Celine’s figure completely faded away, what Nie Chuan saw was Reece standing in front of him. 

 

    “Eh…… no way……”

  uBbiJT

    Reece gazed at him coldy, his lips curved as he unhurriedly approached Nie Chuan, his voice that was without any temperature sounded in Nie Chuan’s ear, “Do you want me to teach you how to use it?”

 

    That ambiguous smile that was brimming with male hormones made his blood boil and his heart felt as if it was being squeezed in one hand.

  R3vb64

    “No need! No need! No need!”

 

    Nie Chuan pushed him away then abruptly opened his eyes. He laid gasping as he looked at the ceiling of his dormitory.

  UPNEhX

    “Ah Chuan? What happened to you?” Zhou Bin came out of the bathroom while brushing his teeth.

    “I’m fine…… it’s nothing……” Nie Chuan sat up and held his forehead. 

  M5UzVl

    Fortunately, it was just a dream……

 

    “You’re really okay? Did you have a nightmare?”

  7qTiKB

    “Yeah…… a really awful nightmare……”

 

    “That’s rare, you usually have unrealistic dreams. This your first nightmare ba?”

  dEUOWg

    “…… Haha, yeah…… I’ve probably been out of luck lately.”

 

    Nie Chuan got up. When he lifted the blanket he froze, then immediately held his head.

  kZHmPe

    No way! No way! No way! 

 

    Was it because he was about to kiss Celine that he became wet? Or because of Reece’s ‘Do you want me to teach you how to use it’? 

  TvFUlb

    Nie Chuan was sitting on the toilet while lost in thought when Zhou Bin’s voice came from outside the bathroom door.

    “Ah Chuan, hurry up ah! I already see Reece downstairs!”

  tm1Hjc

    Nie Chuan’s shoulders shook. He really really really didn’t want to see Reece today! 

 

    No, not only today, but also tomorrow and the day after tomorrow and even the day after that! 

  YUl1o3

    After Nie Chuan dawdled in the bathroom for 20 or so minutes, there was a knock on the door. 

 

    “I know! Just let me stay for a bit longer!”

  ehHXux

    Nie Chuan thought, why not just directly let Zhou Bin lie for him and say that he had diarrhea?

 

    “You fell into the toilet?”

  lhETCz

    An icy voice rang out as if the door wasn’t even there.

 

    Nie Chuan’s shoulders stiffened and he almost truly did fall into the toilet.

    “Reece?”

    During today’s morning run, Nie Chuan was very absentminded and the scene of Celine kissing Reece constantly replayed in his head. Unexpectedly, he was able to finish the whole lap without stopping. 

  2Qwb0T

    He was about to sullenly continue running when the back of his collar was grabbed. 

 

    “Go back to take a shower and eat breakfast.”

  sriF5E

    Nie Chuan finally returned to his senses.

 

    “What’s the matter?”

  UCJ1w2

    Nie Chuan didn’t speak to Reece.

    “If there’s nothing then go back to your dorm.”

  YgSGeb

    After his afternoon classes were finished, Nie Chuan should be continuing his training with Reece. However, he really didn’t want to see him.

 

    Even though Nie Chuan felt that he was acting very childish, practically like a little emperor, he still sent Reece a message: I won’t be going to practice this afternoon. It’s almost midterms and I want to study some more.

  Sqmco9

    Then, he threw his phone in his bag, disinclined to see what Reece’s reply would be. 

 

    After arriving at the library, he spread out his advanced mathematics book and then propped up his chin, not taking in a single word. His pen drew countless circles on the paper while his mind flew off somewhere.

  xVwJUj

    “Do you even know how to do these problems, or do you just not want to do them?”

 

    When that familiar voice sounded, Nie Chuan abruptly came back to himself. When he turned to the side, he saw Reece sitting next to him.

  ZlgAKR

    “You…… how are you here?”

 

    Reece’s hand reached for the paper in front of Nie Chuan and moved it in front of himself. On the paper, he found that besides circles, it was still circles.

  2 vbnc

    “Hey, give that back!”

 

Chrysanthemum Garden.

    Nie Chuan wanted to take the paper back but Reece pressed down on it. 

  abdtzk

    A few students who had gotten up and were about to leave the library after packing couldn’t help looking over. When they found it was Reece Reddington, they all revealed expressions of surprise.

 

    This was the first time they saw Reece in the library. 

  mtZBOx

    “What’s the matter with you?”

 

    “What do you mean what’s the matter?” Nie Chuan shot back.

  Z8bURk

    You can’t wait for me to recover from my heartbreak before facing me again ma

 

    “Is it because of Celine?” Reece’s expression didn’t change but the oppression in his eyes was there. 

  xIkBLt

    He seemed to want to expel all the miscellaneous thoughts in Nie Chuan’s head, leaving only the truth. 

 

    Nie Chuan glared at him. Perhaps the most courageous thing he had ever done was glare at Reece ba

  1tdaSf

    When Nie Chuan didn’t reply, Reece asked, “Did you receive the gift I sent to comfort you?”

    “Ha? What?” Nie Chuan tilted his head.

  Ormywu

    Reese leaned over and the oppressive feeling he brought with his even stronger male hormones made Nie Chuan feel a sense of crisis. He leaned back until his shoulder pressed against the windowsill. 

 

    He swept his gaze across the library and found that only a student with black framed glasses was left eating a sandwich. 

  7yheaN

    The other person lifted his head and was looking in their direction.

 

    “Chocolate flavored.”

  1OZB5i

    Nie Chuan suddenly recalled how when he had opened the express package last night, a pile of condoms fell out. 

 

    That kind of thing doesn’t have any comforting effect at all! 

  Gh7LKT

    “Did you open and try them?”

 

    Reece’s voice was very soft and the ice cold quality of it was like a piece of silk sliding over Nie Chuan’s heart. 

  iEZHS4

    Nie Chuan was about to cry.

 

Please visit chrysanthemumgarden (dot) com

    Can you not say something like that in such a serious tone? 

  9ezyWq

    “No.” Nie Chuan pushed against Reece with force but the latter didn’t budge. 

 

    Nie Chuan looked towards the male student with glasses and found that the other was still watching them. 

  yeqgvF

    Reece finally let Nie Chuan go and turned to the bespeckled student, stunning him.

 

    Reece only said one word to him, “Go.”

  OZsfdn

    Even though Nie Chuan couldn’t see Reece’s expression, he knew that it was absolutely imposing because the bespectacled boy hurriedly packed his things and left. 

 

    In the quiet library, they were the only two left.

  gzRCHs

    It didn’t seem like Reece was planning to tease Nie Chuan any further. Instead, he crossed his arms and said, “I think that we should talk properly. I don’t want you to still be this idiotic by the time we have the practice match next week.”

 

    Nie Chuan held his head and sighed, “Alright, I admit that my state of mind isn’t very good right now. You can just leave me be. I guarantee that my self-recovery is very good, I’ll be fine soon.”

  ad3ZDu

    “It’s already been a whole night plus a day, your self-recovery clearly isn’t very good.”

    “…… Then what do you want to do? I’ve liked Celine for a very long time but she’s set her heart on being together with you and you…… you’re my teammate.”

  X4vImD

    “How long is your definition of ‘very long’?”

 

    “Half a year.”

  7kwhIQ

    “That’s not long at all.”

 

    “……”

  YNRXqs

    “Celine only touched my chin, that doesn’t even count as a kiss,” Reece said indifferently.

 

    Nie Chuan smiled bitterly. “She doesn’t even want to touch my chin.”

  ZnU 7V

    “You care about it that much?”

 

    “I’m also not sure what is going on with myself. Just leave me alone ba, I promise to resume training tomorrow, alright?” Nie Chuan said helplessly. 

  7VySbM

    “If I gave Celine’s kiss back to you, would you still be like this?”

    Nie Chuan paused.

  pqd3KI

    “Wh…… what? Give back to me? How are you going to give it back? Are you going to drag Celine over and ask her to kiss me?”

 

    “If I gave it back to you, can you guarantee that you will go back to normal?”

  Ydz7Ls

    Reece raised his eyebrow and Nie Chuan realized that this guy was being serious. 

 

    “Ah…… if you can really give it back then I promise I’ll go back to normal.”

  RsaBgH

    In the next moment, Reece turned his head and held down Nie Chuan’s shoulder, a shadow falling on his brow. Before Nie Chuan could appreciate the beauty of it, the other’s lips had already landed on his. 

 

    The touch was warm and soft, but with an irresistible strength. 

  zIDMnd

    Nie Chuan’s mind was blank, his pupils dilated. All he could see were Reece’s elegant and gently curved eyelashes. 

 

    The tip of Reece’s tongue slid over the seam  of Nie Chuan’s lips before prying them open and slipping in, sweeping through the place in an instant.

  sJdnd7

    Nie Chuan’s shoulders stiffened, he couldn’t respond at all. All the blood in his body seemed to rush to the places that Reece licked with his tongue.

    He felt a force that seemed to snatch everything in his body away through this kiss only to realize that it was Reece’s sucking. 

  J3egkF

    What is he doing ah!

 

    Why did his tongue also come in!

  8IFUHv

    Nie Chuan forcefully pushed against Reece’s shoulders, then leaned back and looked up.

 

    Reese clasped his wrist with one hand and pinned it behind his back with ease. His body then pressed against Nie Chuan even harder, pushing him against the wall. The back of Nie Chuan’s head knocked against the window frame as Reece’s tongue stirred vigorously in his mouth, trailing from his tongue to his upper palate before tracing over his teeth. It was immediately followed by disorderly sucking which made Nie Chuan incapable of breathing. 

  29HhWp

    All he knew was that Reece adjusted his angle again, wantonly ravaging between his lips and teeth. 

 

    Nie Chuan had imagined countless kisses happening like this. Unfortunately, it did not have any of the tenderness belonging to a female, only a pure sense of strength and a possessiveness that seemed to want to swallow him into the belly whole. 

  coTRSw

    Nie Chuan felt a sense of crisis. He tried to turn his face but Reece followed relentlessly, lingering and dragging. It wasn’t until Nie Chuan began to have a feeling of being aroused did Reece’s kissing slow down. However, the slower it was, the more heart pounding it felt. 

 

    Until Reece’s tongue finally came out.

  dTvAh9

    The tip of his tongue lightly licked between Nie Chuan’s lips, as if it was reluctant to leave, and every cell in Nie Chuan’s body quaked. 

 

Chrysanthemum Garden.

    The tip of his nose touched against Nie Chuan’s nose as he said in his usual icy tone, “I’ve given it back to you.”

  OPhsDb

    Nie Chuan abruptly woke up and loudly questioned with wide eyes, “Given it back to me? How does this count as giving it back to me! I thought you……”

 

    Fortunately, there was no one in the library at this time. Otherwise, Nie Chuan felt that he wouldn’t want to live anymore. 

  fqALQe

    “What did you think?” Reece looked at Nie Chuan apathetically, it was like pouring a cold basin of water on his head. 

 

    Nie Chuan was frozen speechlessly in place. 

  c1YIm2

    “You thought I was going to let Celine come kiss you?” Reece smiled.

 

    His smile contained a teasing that Nie Chuan hadn’t seen for a long time. 

  0gbr2V

    “If you’re still thinking about that kiss then the only thing I can tell you is that even if Celine had kissed you, it would also be like this. However, I will never kiss Celine in this way. Is this answer good enough for you?”

 

    Nie Chuan had always thought that kissing Celine would be pure and sweet like in a literary movie, where is it like this……

  aboZwE

    “You said that you would never kiss Celine in this way…… does that mean you won’t accept her feelings?”

    “It’s rare for you to understand.”

  MNruHf

    “But …… but why would you want…… want…… to kiss me?” Nie Chuan forcefully wiped his mouth with the back of his hand.

 

    “With one look, I can tell you’re an idiot who has never kissed before. That’s why you have such big expectations about kissing, isn’t that right?” Reece crossed his arms with a teasing look in his eyes. “I’m just breaking your delusions so that you won’t dwell on this kind of meaningless thing.”
