Month: May 2023 (Page 2 of 2)

       Zhou Yan’s court hearing started at 10:00 am on Wednesday. Before that, Chen Yuncheng would need to pick up Gu Yaojia and then drive nearly two hours to get to the court. If they didn’t want to leave early in the morning, they had to drive to Gu Yaojia’s hometown the day before, stay for one night, and pick up Gu Yaojia the next morning.

       It didn’t matter how Chen Yuncheng arranged it, but Ning Junyan’s time was too valuable. In order to accompany Chen Yuncheng to the court hearing, he had purposely adjusted his duty and took annual leave.

       When Chen Yuncheng thought about it, he seemed a little sorry for Ning Junyan, who had already accompanied him on several trips for Zhou Yan’s affairs. However, Chen Yuncheng couldn’t help but want to rely on Ning Junyan again. Probably because there were too few people he could rely on since he was a child. At this time, he especially hoped that Ning Junyan could be by his side.

       Tuesday’s departure was a little later than expected because Ning Junyan was on duty the night before and encountered an emergency operation at dawn, which delayed them a whole morning.

       Ning Junyan drove over to pick up Chen Yuncheng in the afternoon.

       Chen Yuncheng was explaining some things to Wu Xiaozhu in the store when he saw Ning Junyan arriving, he immediately said, “Wait for me for two minutes.” Then he went into the room to pack his things.

       Guan Anlin was sitting on a small chair at the door of the shop playing mobile games, when he saw Ning Junyan coming, he stood up and walked towards him.

       Chen Yuncheng simply packed some things and carried a small backpack, and came out with a few bottles of mineral water in a plastic bag. He carried his things to the store door and saw Guan Anlin talking to Ning Junyan. But when he came near, Guan Anlin stopped talking and said to him, “Be careful on the way.”

       “What are you talking about?” Chen Yuncheng asked suspiciously.

       Guan Anlin said, “I asked him if he wanted to have a cigarette, seeing as he didn’t seem to be in good spirits.”

       When he heard that, Chen Yuncheng turned his head to look at Ning Junyan and saw that he looked really haggard. He was on duty last night and had gotten up in the early hours of the morning to do emergency surgery, so he must be very tired by now.

       “Let me drive,” Chen Yuncheng said to Ning Junyan.

       Ning Junyan did not refuse this time, nodded and said, “I’ll sleep for a while.”

       As Chen Yuncheng drove out of the city onto the highway, Ning Junyan put the back of the passenger seat down and lay on his back in the car to catch up on his sleep.

       There was very soothing music playing in the car, and Chen Yuncheng turned the volume down very low, not wanting to disturb Ning Junyan’s sleep. He remembered the last time he drove to Zhou Yan’s hometown with Ning Junyan. That time Ning Junyan drove the whole time, while he slept in the car for a long time. They were not together at that time, and he was still full of hope that he could successfully find Zhou Yan.

       Halfway through the trip, Chen Yuncheng stopped the car at the rest stop and went to the bathroom.

       He hesitated when he got out of the car, wanting to wake up Ning Junyan, but seeing how soundly Ning Junyan was sleeping, he could not bear to call him, so he opened the car door and got out alone.

       Today was neither a weekend nor a holiday. There were not many cars at the highway rest stop, and only a few cars were parked far away in the spacious parking lot.

       A gust of wind blew towards his face, and Chen Yuncheng immediately felt a chill.

       Spring seemed to be getting shorter and shorter these years. After winter, once the weather turns cold, it felt like the weather always rushed into summer, as if there were only two seasons left in a year, and half of them were long summers. When he went out, he only put on a long-sleeved jacket over a short-sleeved T-shirt.

       Chen Yuncheng turned to look at Ning Junyan, then returned to the car gently, took off his coat and covered Ning Junyan, and was left with only a short sleeve.

       When he returned from the bathroom, he saw from the car window that Ning Junyan seemed to have moved, so he walked over, pulled open the passenger door, stood in front of him, and asked softly, “Are you awake?”

       Ning Junyan blinked his eyes and opened them slowly. He then stretched out his hands towards Chen Yuncheng after seeing him, and said, “Wife, hug me.”

       Chen Yuncheng burst out laughing and said in disgust, “Nuts.” Although he said so, when he saw no one was around, he still reached out and hugged Ning Junyan, and asked him, “Do you want to go to the bathroom?”

       Ning Junyan said, “Not going.” He lowered his head and saw the coat on his body, and stretched out his hand to grab it for Chen Yuncheng to put it back on.

       Chen Yuncheng tried to refuse, “You will be cold when you sleep.”

       “It’s not cold.” Ning Junyan put on his coat and even zipped it up patiently. “You can turn on the air conditioning¹refers to the warm and cold conditioning if you’re cold.”

       Chen Yuncheng asked him, “Then shall we continue to set off?”

       Ning Junyan nodded and said, “Let me drive.”

       “That won’t work,” Chen Yuncheng refused him, “What if you get me killed if you drive when you are tired?” After he said that, he raised his hand to help Ning Junyan close the passenger’s door, and walked around to the driver’s seat to get in the car.

       Ning Junyan adjusted the back of the chair, took a bottle of water and unscrewed the lid. He took a sip slowly and put it back, and after Chen Yuncheng started the car, he said, “I won’t get you killed, you don’t have to be afraid of anything when you’re around me, if you’re really in danger, I’ll protect you with my life.”

       Chen Yuncheng had already driven the car slowly out of the parking space. When he heard Ning Junyan’s words, he couldn’t help slamming on the brakes. He glanced at him and said, “Don’t say such things.”

       Ning Junyan continued, “I am willing to do anything for you, so you can’t just refuse my request in the future.”

       Chen Yuncheng let go of the brakes and felt that Ning Junyan was too troublesome. He was so passionate one second and started talking nonsense the next second, making Chen Yuncheng so unsettled, that he could only glare at him in the end.

       They arrived in the county where Gu Yaojia’s hometown was located in the evening. Chen Yuncheng had already contacted Gu Yaojia before. Gu Yaojia insisted on accommodating them, but Chen Yuncheng found an excuse to refuse and only said that he would pick her and the child up early in the morning.

       They randomly found a clean-looking restaurant on the side of the road to have dinner, and then drove to the hotel they had booked.

       Chen Yuncheng booked a double-bed room. He thought that since they were both tired from the half-day drive and had to continue tomorrow, a double-bed room would allow both of them to rest well.

       But when they opened the room, Ning Junyan was not satisfied and asked the front desk to change them to a king-size room.

       Chen Yuncheng lowered his voice, approached Ning Junyan’s ear, and said, “Don’t you want to rest well?”

       Ning Junyan said calmly, “I sleep better with you in my arms.”

       Chen Yuncheng felt a little bashful, and saw the hotel receptionist watching them and waiting for them to decide, so he said, “Let’s change.”

       But when they arrived in an unfamiliar room in an unfamiliar environment, with Ning Junyan and Chen Yuncheng lying in the same bed, obviously not just to cuddle him and sleep better.

       Chen Yuncheng was also aroused by him, raised his arms to hug his shoulders, lying on his back to look at him, “Aren’t you tired?”

       Ning Junyan said, “I slept all afternoon.”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “But I drove all afternoon.”

       Ning Junyan pressed against his earlobe and said, “Then you rest. It’s my turn now.”

       After he was done, Chen Yuncheng didn’t even want to move a finger, so Ning Junyan held him in his arms, reached out and took a tissue from the bed and wiped the marks on his body.

       Chen Yuncheng looked up at the ceiling and said, “Suddenly I want to smoke.”

       Ning Junyan said, “It’s not good for your health.”

       Chen Yuncheng turned to look at him, “Is indulgence good for your health?”

       Ning Junyan looked straight into his eyes and said flatly, “It’s not good to hold back either.”

       Chen Yuncheng smiled.

       Ning Junyan brushed aside the hair on Chen Yuncheng’s forehead with his fingers. Chen Yuncheng’s hair had grown a little longer, allowing Ning Junyan to insert his fingers into the middle of his hair. Ning Junyan stroked his slightly sweaty forehead and said, “So you have to tell me if you want to.”

       Chen Yuncheng smiled and said nothing, not pursuing the question of who wanted this more.

       Ning Junyan continued, “Not only your physical needs, but you also have to tell me about other needs too.”

       Chen Yuncheng asked strangely, “What are the other needs?”

       Ning Junyan propped his head up with one hand and said slowly, “The 100,000 yuan you need now.”

       Chen Yuncheng sat up from the bed at once, turned to look at Ning Junyan, showing a surprised expression, and quickly realized, angrily said, “Guan Anlin!”

       Ning Junyan frowned, “Don’t call other men’s names on my bed.”

       Chen Yuncheng ignored him and just asked, “Did he tell you that?”

       Ning Junyan said, “Shouldn’t you reflect on the fact that you still need someone else to tell me such things?”

       Chen Yuncheng sighed, and said to Ning Junyan, “I can’t borrow any more of your money.”

       Ning Junyan reached out to him, “Come here.”

       Chen Yuncheng asked, “What for?” But he leaned over anyway.

       Ning Junyan held him tightly in his arms and said, “You have to cuddle and talk.”

       Chen Yuncheng said helplessly, “Okay, okay. Let’s cuddle and talk.”

       Chen Yuncheng went back to the shop quite late the next day. At that time, the store had already opened, and Shi Peng was already moving goods at the door.

       When Shi Peng saw Chen Yuncheng, he greeted him, “Cheng ge!”

       Chen Yuncheng smiled at him.

       Shi Peng asked curiously again, “Did you spend the night out last night?”

       Chen Yuncheng’s attitude was quite calm, and he replied, “Yes.”

       Shi Peng didn’t think there was anything wrong either, so he said “oh” and went back to moving the goods.

       Chen Yuncheng stretched his stiff shoulders as he walked inside. After being handcuffed to the bed for a long time last night, he woke up early this morning feeling stiff and uncomfortable in his joints. He couldn’t help but feel that he wasn’t getting any younger, and at the same time, he also cursed Ning Junyan hard in his heart.

       When he entered the room, Guan Anlin just came out of the bathroom, looked up at him, and said nothing.

       Chen Yuncheng bent down to find the phone charger by the bed, plugged the phone in and charged it, and said to Guan Anlin, “I’ll call Sun ge later to see if I can invite him to dinner tonight, why don’t you come with me?”

       Guan Anlin said Guan Anlin said in a cool and lingering tone, “No more fooling around with men tonight?”

       Chen Yuncheng turned to look at him, stretched his shoulders, and said, “I don’t want to see him for a few days.”

       Guan Anlin noticed his movements and asked, “What happened to your shoulder?”

       Chen Yuncheng didn’t answer, and after a while, he blushed slightly.

       When Guan Anlin noticed it, he was baffled and a little angry. He always felt that Chen Yuncheng must have done something shameful.

       It was not that Chen Yuncheng really didn’t want to see Ning Junyan, but he was really busy these days. After taking the time to chat with Sun Shiliang and the liquor agent that Sun Shiliang introduced to him, they all advised him to be cautious about taking over the agency of a small brand, fearing that he would not be able to sell the goods.

       Above all, Sun Shiliang chatted with him for a long time and told him that he might as well try to take a small number of goods first and see if the goods could be sold. He could sell them in their shop anyway and market them when he had customers, and if he had repeat customers, he could consider getting into them officially.

       After some consideration, Chen Yuncheng followed Sun Shiliang’s suggestion and sold a small amount of the wine in the store. At the same time, he divided the wine into small glass bottles and gave it to the customers who came to pick up the goods for tasting and received a lot of positive feedback.

       When Chen Yuncheng bought goods from the manufacturer again, the people from the winery persuaded him to use a local first-level agent. He was a little tempted, probably asked about the price, and then began to think about the bank loan.

       This was not an easy task for Chen Yuncheng. Although the money needed was not much, he did not have enough credit to take out a loan, and he did not have any assets under his name to take out a mortgage. Sun Shiliang had a way to introduce him to outside lending institutions, but he didn’t recommend him there, because to put it bluntly, those lending institutions could handle unsecured loans, and they had to bear a lot of risks, so the interest was very high, which was equivalent to a loan shark.

       Sun Shiliang saw that Chen Yuncheng was in a difficult position, and said to him, “How about this, I will give you an advance of your year’s income according to last month’s turnover, and you can take it first. We will settle the account at the end of the year.”

       Chen Yuncheng was stunned for a moment, and said, “He was not receiving a fixed salary, but a monthly commission based on his turnover, and his next income was unknown, so Sun Siliang was lending him a sum of money without interest and then counting it towards his monthly repayment.

       Sun Shiliang said, “It’s okay. I didn’t have a chance to thank Dr. Ning for helping me last time, and he didn’t want gifts. I know you two are close, so you should find a way to return the favour for me.”

       Chen Yuncheng didn’t know what to say for a while.

       Sun Shiliang simply transferred more than one hundred thousand to Chen Yuncheng, but it was still not enough, and Chen Yuncheng still needed to find a solution for the remaining money.

       Guan Anlin knew that Chen Yuncheng needed money, so he said to him, “Go ask your man for it, he is so rich.”

       Chen Yuncheng held the lunch box and gave him a cold look.

       Guan Anlin said, “What are you looking at me for? I didn’t say anything wrong.”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Because of Zhou Yan’s incident, I haven’t paid off the money I owed him. How can I continue to borrow from him?”

       Guan Anlin finished the food in the lunch box in two bites, temporarily tossed the empty lunch box at his feet, lit a cigarette, breathed it into his lungs hard, and said, “Then what do you think?”

       Chen Yuncheng asked, “What do you think?”

       Guan Anlin said, “Even if you two men can’t get married, you will never be a family. So even the money must be calculated so clearly, huh?”

       Chen Yuncheng felt that the meal was tasteless, but he didn’t want to waste it, so he put all the rest of the meal into his mouth in one go, chewed for a long time with his mouth puffed up, and then said, “I can’t spend his money even if he is a woman.”

       Guan Anlin scratched his scalp with his fingers, “I thought you were the woman.”

       If Chen Yuncheng hadn’t chewed and swallowed the food in his mouth, he felt that he could spray it on Guan Anlin’s face, so he stared at Guan Anlin with a mean expression.

       Guan Anlin quickly said, “I’m just describing your relationship, isn’t one of you playing the male and one playing the female? I don’t know what to say, why are you glaring at me?”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Just shut up.”

       Guan Anlin no longer entangled with him about men and women matter and continued, “I just thought that if you really want to be together, there’s no need to be so concerned about it, it’s not like you’re not going to pay him back, what’s so hard to ask. If I had 100,000 yuan in my hand today and you came to borrow it from me, I would guarantee that I would lend it to you without you even typing the IOU¹An IOU (abbreviated from the phrase “I owe you”) is usually an informal document acknowledging debt.. After a long time, aren’t your relationship with him better than with mine? Even Sun ge was willing to lend you money, right?”

       Chen Yuncheng was silent for a while, and said, “It’s not the same.” He picked up the two empty lunch boxes on the ground and threw them in the trash can.

       He had just taken two steps when Chen Yuncheng received a phone call from Long Zhanyu.

       Long Zhanyu seemed to be very busy, and told him in a hurried tone, “Zhou Yan’s case would start trial next week.”

       Chen Yuncheng was a little surprised, “So fast?” He thought it would take at least half a year.

       Long Zhanyu said: “The trial of their accomplice who stole the vehicle has been completed here, so they can directly copy the case file over there; as for the intentional murder, he turned himself in and gave a complete account of the crime. He has pleaded guilty and had a good attitude until now, so the case is handled quickly.” After he said that, Long Zhanyu couldn’t wait to hear him continue talking and just said, “Something’s up, I’ll hang up.”

       Chen Yuncheng didn’t even have time to say thank you when he heard the voice of call ended tone from the phone.

       He couldn’t help turning his head to look at Guan Anlin.

       Guan Anlin was still enjoying his after-meal cigarette, and looked up at him, “What’s wrong?”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Zhou Yan’s case will be brought to trial next week.”

       Guan Anlin said in a cold tone, “Oh,” and then added, “It was an early trial, it’s good.”

       Chen Yuncheng walked to the trash can, threw away the two lunch boxes, turned around and saw Guan Anlin still squatting in front of the store smoking, so he walked behind a pillar and called Ning Junyan.

       Ning Junyan was off duty tonight, and when he answered the phone, his surroundings were very quiet, and he called out in a deep voice, “Yuncheng.”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Where are you?”

       Ning Junyan answered him, “Still in the hospital and haven’t got off work, miss me?”

       The corners of Chen Yuncheng’s mouth could not help but turn up slightly, and said, “I miss you.”

       Ning Junyan said, “Then let me come pick you up.”

       Chen Yuncheng replied, “Okay.”

       When he returned to Guan Anlin’s side, Chen Yuncheng looked down at him and said, “I’m going out tonight.”

       Guan Anlin raised his head, frowned, looked at him for a while, and finally said, “Try borrowing money from him.”

       Chen Yuncheng did not reply.

       As he sat on the bed in Ning Junyan’s bedroom, Chen Yuncheng stretched out his hand and shook the iron chain on the head of the bed gently. He no longer felt anything when he saw the pair of handcuffs now. He also knew that Ning Junyan had ordered a collar for him, which he kept in the drawer of his bedside table, together with the ring he had proposed with earlier.

       To Chen Yuncheng, whether to wear these things or not is just a matter of taste, and Ning Junyan would not force him, and would definitely not hurt him.

       When Chen Yuncheng complained about shoulder pain, Ning Junyan would patiently massage his shoulders, and next, he would remove the handcuffs from the chain, and let Chen Yuncheng put his hands around his head and hug his shoulders.

       Ning Junyan came out of the bathroom without any clothes on, went to bed to hug Chen Yuncheng and kissed him.

       Chen Yuncheng hugged Ning Junyan back, greedy for his tenderness, but he was also a little absent-minded.

       Ning Junyan asked him, “What’s wrong?”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Zhou Yan’s case will be tried next week.”

       Ning Junyan lay on the bed, let Chen Yuncheng pillow his shoulder, and gently touched his face and neck with his fingers, “Do you want to go?”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “I’m going, and I’ve told his girlfriend that when the time comes, I’ll pick them up and take the kids with me.”

       Ning Junyan asked, “Can children be brought into court?”

       Chen Yuncheng looked up at him, “I don’t know.”

       Ning Junyan pinched Chen Yuncheng’s earlobe with his fingers and rubbed it. Chen Yuncheng raised his head slightly and took the initiative to kiss Ning Junyan’s lips.

       As his lips parted, Ning Junyan said to Chen Yuncheng, “I’ll go with you.”

       As soon as Guan Anlin entered, he eyed Ning Junyan warily.

       Ning Junyan didn’t say anything and sat directly beside Chen Yuncheng’s bed. He knew that Guan Anlin was looking at him, and he didn’t avoid his gaze.

       Chen Yuncheng went to pack some things briefly, and said to Guan Anlin, “I won’t be coming back tonight.”

       Guan Anlin’s gaze at Ning Junyan suddenly became fierce.

       Ning Junyan stood up from the bed, glanced at Guan Anlin, and then walked outside.

       Chen Yuncheng followed behind him, and Guan Anlin grabbed his wrist when he went out. Chen Yuncheng patted the back of Guan Anlin’s hand and said, “Lock the door well later.”

       Although Guan Anlin was very reluctant, he finally let go of Chen Yuncheng’s hand.

       In the store outside, Shi Peng was lying on the counter chatting with Wu Xiaozhu. It was past six o’clock at this time, and the trade market was closed, and they were about to close the store.

       Chen Yuncheng said to Shi Peng, “I have something to go first today, you can have dinner with Lin ge.”

       Shi Peng nodded and watched Chen Yuncheng go out of the store. He then watched him follow Ning Junyan into the Land Rover.

       When Guan Anlin came out from the inner room, Shi Peng asked him curiously, “Is Cheng ge going out to eat with his friend?”

       “Yes,” Guan Anlin replied impatiently.

       Wu Xiaozhu kept tilting her body to look outside, and said, “That Dr. Ning is so handsome.”

       Guan Anlin looked unhappy, “How handsome is he?”

       Wu Xiaozhu didn’t seem to notice his displeasure, “Just very handsome, it’s rare to see such a handsome man around, and he’s talented too.”

       Guan Anlin turned to look at her.

       Wu Xiaozhu noticed Guan Anlin’s gaze, and shrank back, “It goes without saying. What are you looking at me so mean for.?”

       Guan Anlin snorted coldly and didn’t say another word.

       Ning Junyan drove Chen Yuncheng to eat first. Instead of going to the crowded city centre this time, he chose a small restaurant not far from home.

       Chen Yuncheng seemed to be in a good mood, even if there was a traffic jam on the road, he still hummed softly to the music of the radio.

       Ning Junyan glanced at him, “So happy?”

       Chen Yuncheng turned his head and smiled at him.

       Ning Junyan raised his mouth slightly, “How much wine did you drink just now?”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Just a little bit. I was asked to try the taste before you came.”

       Ning Junyan asked him, “Is it the wine that you are going to sell?”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “I’m still thinking about it.” After he finished speaking, he was silent for a while, and then said, “I’ve been wondering lately if I could do something else.”

       “What?”

       Chen Yuncheng said, “I’m still thinking about it.”

       The wine he tried today was from a new friend he had met at the trade market. The wine he tried was a small brand of baijiu that was being promoted because it had not yet entered the local market, and he was told that the brand wanted to recruit regional agents.

       Chen Yuncheng tried the wine and it tasted really good, not inferior to the same type of famous brand baijiu, so he had some thoughts.

       It was not an easy decision to make, as the funds required for a small brand agent were not too much, but it would not be a small amount for him. The main thing he was considering was that he might not be able to sell the goods after taking them.

       Doing business was bound to be risky. His character had always pursued stability, and he had never had any ambitions until he fell in love and began to desperately want to do something about it so that he could have the ability to hold the relationship firmly in his hands.

       Ning Junyan said to him, “Just do whatever you want.”

       Chen Yuncheng nodded. But he still planned to talk to Sun Shiliang first, preferably to talk to the agents that Sun Siliang had introduced him to as well, but then he would inevitably have to socialise, and smoking and drinking and all that would be unavoidable.

       After dinner, they returned to Ning Junyan’s house.

       When Chen Yuncheng left last time, he had a bad fight with Ning Junyan, so he couldn’t help but recall the experience of meeting Ning Junyan’s mother here.

       He subconsciously took a look at the whole room, and it seemed to be the same as when he left. It was still deserted and clean, just like in a hotel.

       When he entered Ning Junyan’s room, Chen Yuncheng was stunned for a moment. He walked slowly to the head of the bed, stretched out his hand to pull the iron chain fixed on the wall, and asked in a slightly panicked tone, “What is this?”

       One end of the iron chain was fixed to the wall, and the other end hung down to hang over the head of the bed, with a pair of leather handcuffs on it. It was not very long, but not long enough for a handcuffed person to go to the bathroom, and probably only long enough for a person to lie on the bed.

       Ning Junyan followed Chen Yuncheng into the room, he closed the door expressionlessly and locked it with a click.

       Chen Yuncheng didn’t want to admit that he was scared.

       Ning Junyan walked towards him slowly, his tall figure blocking the light as he stood in front of him.

       Chen Yuncheng looked up at him.

       Ning Junyan extended his arms to hug Chen Yuncheng, and Chen Yuncheng struggled weakly. Ning Junyan did not let go but sat down beside the bed, let Chen Yuncheng sit on his lap, and said, “Don’t be afraid.”

       Chen Yuncheng breathed a little sharply and said, “You’ve let me go, why even put chains on it?”

       Ning Junyan whispered in his ear, “Do you really think you can get away? You’ll have to come back one day and obediently let me lock up.”

       Chen Yuncheng exerted himself to turn his head to look at him.

       Ning Junyan’s expression was very calm, and his eyes were very sincere. He just looked at him intently, without any crazy and hot emotions.

       Chen Yuncheng said, “Really?”

       Ning Junyan held his wrist, rubbed his fingertips lightly between his wrists, slightly lowering his head against the back of his neck and said, “Of course it’s true, but if you don’t want it, I won’t force it.”

       Chen Yuncheng knew that he wasn’t serious, and couldn’t help pinching his face.

       Ning Junyan turned over and pinned Chen Yuncheng on the bed. He stretched out his hand to pull the handcuffs on the iron chain, and said to Chen Yuncheng, “Because they are half installed, I always feel that they should not be wasted.” After he said that, he looked up at Chen Yuncheng.

       Chen Yuncheng turned his head to look at the handcuffs, and said, “I don’t want it.”

       Ning Junyan didn’t force it, just lowered his head and kissed him.

       After a long kiss, Chen Yuncheng felt weak all over and felt Ning Junyan stroking his wrist again. He knew that Ning Junyan had not given up yet, so he said, “I still have to go take a shower.”

       Ning Junyan stretched his hands to press the buckle at the end of the iron chain. The handcuffs were movable, and he untied them from the iron chain. He very gently pressed his lips against Chen Yuncheng’s and said to him, “I’ll help you wash.”

       After being stripped and handcuffed, Chen Yuncheng regretted it. In fact, he didn’t agree, but he didn’t refuse firmly. The feeling of not being able to move his hands was so bad that all he could do was allow Ning Junyan to carry him into the bathroom.

       The hot water washed over his body and Chen Yuncheng stood in the bathtub, feeling like a child waiting for his parents to bathe him.

       Ning Junyan took off his clothes, stepped into the bathtub and stood in front of him, patiently and meticulously taking off the shower head to help him rinse.

       Chen Yuncheng felt that he somewhat did not understand Ning Junyan, “Why do you want to imprison me?”

       Ning Junyan spoke hot words of love in a calm and indifferent tone, “You don’t know how sexy you are like this.”

       It was true that Chen Yuncheng really didn’t understand, but he could see that he had indeed made Ning Junyan sexually interested.

       Ning Junyan turned off the water, squeezed the shower gel into the palm of his hand, and gently smoothed it evenly on Chen Yuncheng’s skin.

       Chen Yuncheng was tormented by the slippery touch, and couldn’t help but said, “I can’t hold you if you’re handcuffing me like this.”

       Ning Junyan glanced at him, “It’s alright, I will hold you. You don’t have to think or do anything, just accept everything I give you.”

       Chen Yuncheng whispered, “Pervert!” Then Ning Junyan raised one of Chen Yuncheng’s legs slightly, and his hands covered in foam meticulously cleaned his body from the inside out.

       After the shower, Ning Junyan wiped off the water on Chen Yuncheng’s body, carried him out and put him on the bed, before pulling his hands above his head and locking the handcuffs back onto the chains.

       Chen Yuncheng’s whole body was exposed in front of Ning Junyan, and he couldn’t stand it any longer and said, “Cover me up.”

       Ning Junyan sat by the bed and looked at him quietly, and said, “No.”

       Chen Yuncheng said angrily, “Then let me go!”

       Ning Junyan reluctantly pulled off the quilt to cover Chen Yuncheng, then got in himself, hugged Chen Yuncheng and kissed him.

       Chen Yuncheng breathlessly said, “If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t agree.”

       Ning Junyan stopped, and whispered softly in his ear, “I don’t want to lock anyone except you.”
