Chapter 7 – I’ll wait for you on a spring day

Chapter 7

 

13.

 

In the past few days, there has been non-stop rain. Even the air was humid. Originally, summers in Yunzhen were dry. After it rained, it became hot again. Occasionally, a gust of refreshing cool breeze can be felt through the window alongside with the damp wind of  midsummer.

 

News of a certain popular niche was broadcasting on the TV. It is no exaggeration to say that the entertainment industry is changing quickly. Song Xexu dominated the news headlines half a month ago, but it was replaced by someone else in the blink of an eye.

 

Song Zexu was isolated from the outside world for half a month, far away from the Internet and his career, being really carefree in Li Chou’s apartment, so much so that he almost forgot about his own life.

 

He was still an artist.

 

He tilted his ears to listen to the news on TV and couldn’t help laughing when the news said that he had forgotten his original intention to be the best.

 

Li Chou was pricking dried flowers next to him. When he suddenly laughed, he felt a little creeped out and looked up to watch the news on TV, only to find that it was the newbie celebrity who he’s seen in advertisements some time ago. He looks quite honest, but he didn’t expect him to be in a relationship.

 

Li Chou blinked slowly and said, “It might be a bit hard to tell, but he has a partner.”

 

“It’s just hype.” Song Zexu said to him, “I guess there is a new movie coming up, so they’re trying to create some gossip around it. I have worked with him before and it sounds great.”

 

“The kid talks like he has no talent and is not suitable for the entertainment industry, but he is very hardworking. I hope he can make some achievements in the future.”

 

Li Chou let out an “ah” and realized what he said was too one-sided. However, it is hard to discern between truths and lies in the news of the entertainment industry, so ordinary people don’t really think twice about accepting them.

 

“So that’s how it is.”

 

Song Zexu said “Mm”: “The company seems to be operating normally as usual.”

 

It was the same kind of hype that helped him gain some popularity in the first place. He is most familiar with this way of becoming popular, but he doesn’t really want anyone doing the same thing. After all, his popularity is all due to luck and a good foundation laid before too. He hasn’t made any bad movies, that’s why a few of them became popular after he himself became popular.

 

It’s not necessarily the case if someone else did the same thing. Others might even face backlash and it’s not good to be harmed by the other party.

 

Li Chou made an “oh” and began to tie the dried flowers silently again.

 

He dried some flowers a few days ago. Some customers like dried flowers. At the request of customers, he will prepare a batch of dried flowers every month and then sell them.

 

Sometimes the profit of dried flowers can be more than that of real flowers, after all, they can be stored for longer.

 

He tied a bunch of blue baby’s breath and put it in a vase on the coffee table. Li Chou is a romantic and likes to place all kinds of flowers at home.

 

The fragrance of flowers always puts him in a good mood.

 

The original plan for the remaining flowers was to tie them up and take them to the flower shop for sale. However, the rainy season has caused it to be humid for the past two days, and the dry flowers will have a different texture due to the air humidity. 

 

As such, Li Chou’s batch is softer than before and the weather forecast says that it will rain in three to five days.

 

Sigh, he sighed softly, he was thinking of how to remedy it.

 

“What’s wrong?” Song Zexu asked after hearing his sigh.

 

Li Chou didn’t want to bring up his own negative emotions. He didn’t want to trouble others, especially if the other party was Song Zexu, whom he liked, so he said: “It’s okay, I can handle it myself.”

 

“Really?” Song Zexu looked at Li Chou, “Did you just lie to me?”

 

During this time, Song Zexu was able to discern where Li Chou was very keenly through his voice and he no longer faced the TV or the wall like before when he would face the walls and even refrigerators after Li Chou spoke.

 

Li Chou: “…”

 

In the end, Li Chou still gave in: “It’s because of the weather these few days, the dried flowers that I originally made may not be very long-lasting, so I can only lower the price for them.”

 

“So that’s the case.” Song Zexu sighed like Li Chou a few minutes ago. He thought for a while and asked, “How much are these flowers? I’ll buy them.”

 

Li Chou was taken aback for a moment. He didn’t expect Song Zexu to buy his flowers and he felt that this was not good as he seemed to be taking advantage of others, so he immediately shook his head. Remembering that Song Zexu couldn’t see, he quickly opened his mouth and said, “How can I give you flowers of poor quality?”

 

“It’s okay.” Song Zexu smiled, “My manager likes flowers very much, so I’ll just give them to him later.”

 

“Really?” Li Chou was a little surprised. He doubted the authenticity of Song Zexu’s words. He remembered that Song Zexu’s manager was a man.

 

Would him, of all people, like his flowers? But after thinking about it, he felt that people in the entertainment industry always liked fancy things, which is normal. Besides, he could give a discount, so he said, “Alright then.”

 

After he finished speaking, he realized belatedly that Song Zexu seemed to mean that he was going back.

 

Li Chou looked into Song Zexu’s eyes and for a moment he thought, how could he keep Song Zexu by his side forever?

 

As soon as this thought came out, he slapped himself hard in his heart. How could he be so selfish? Song Zexu’s eyes were already swollen.

 

As it’s been too long, and he was afraid there will be some sequelae if he delays it any longer. If he really loses his sight because of this, there will be unimaginable consequences. The entertainment industry still needs Song Zexu. His talent and hard work should not be confined to this small town of Yunzhen. He should be allowed to shine bright like the sun.

 

He belongs on the big screens.

 

Li Chou breathed out lightly. At this moment, the most he can do is pray for Song Zexu to stay by his side for a little longer. After all, when he leaves In the future, he would never be able to live in the same apartment as Song Zexu like now.

 

He will never lie in the same bed with him again.

 

14.

 

On the eighteenth day of living together with Song Zexu, Li Chou wrote his diary at the beach.

 

[Saturday, July 2, 20××, sunny]

 

[Today Song Zexu borrowed my mobile phone to make a call. He asked me to dial a number for him. He was calling on the balcony. When he got through, I listened in.

 

It was his manager’s voice, but I couldn’t hear what he said on the other end. I had a hunch that he was leaving soon. He probably told his manager to pick him up. Although I should have expected such a day, I’m still so sad and a little bit reluctant.

 

But at least I had him for myself for a short time, so I should be satisfied.

 

That is… it would be nice if time passed a little slower.]

 

Today’s diary entry is very short and Li Chou didn’t know what to write. He seems to have a lot to say to Song Zexu, but as soon as the tip of his pen touches the page, leaving a drop of ink, he doesn’t know what to write again.

 

Li Chou looked up at the sea and he suddenly thought, Song Zexu hadn’t seen the sunset sea before. The first time he saw Song Zexu, the other party was injured and already blind. He may have heard the sound of the sea, but he may not have seen such a beautiful sea.

 

He wanted Song Zexu to let him take him to see it before he leaves.

 

What Li Chou didn’t expect was for the agent to be so quick. When Li Chou returned home, he saw a man wearing sunglasses standing at the door of the apartment building.

 

Li Chou has seen this man standing next to Song Zexu on the news many times. He is the one who made Song Zexu famous step by step.

 

Li Chou knew that he would always come to him, so he simply walked over by himself. He stood in front of the manager, calmed down his breathing and said to him, “Hello.”

 

The agent raised his hand and flipped the sunglasses, revealing one eye. He looked Li Chou up and down, then raised his eyebrows. Looking at Li Chou, he asked: “You’re the one who saved Song Zexu?”

Chapter 55

September 19, 2023 / / 0 Comments

      People, in their lives, all had things they dared not face. Even someone like Suo Yang, who seemed like nothing could make him bend, inevitably also had his own vulnerabilities.

       Shen Huiming gently embraced him and patted his back lightly.

       Suo Yang said, “It’s okay, it’s been so long, I’m used to it.”

       How could one ever get used to it?

       This would always be a knot in life that couldn’t be untied.

       Shen Huiming wanted to do something for him.

       “Alright,” Suo Yang smiled, “Let’s go in and watch a movie.”

       He broke free from Shen Huiming’s embrace and helped the other party straighten his shirt, “One day all problems will be solved. I’m not in a hurry.”

       “Okay.” Shen Huiming gave his shoulder a comforting squeeze, “No rush.”

       The two of them watched the movie. This time, Shen Huiming chose the movie himself and found a masterpiece that he had been watching repeatedly for years.

       Suo Yang had actually seen this movie, but it was when he was very young, probably around seven or eight years old. At that time, he was standing in the living room at home, standing in front of the TV, watching this film broadcast on the movie channel.

       His memory of this movie had become hazy, and he only remembered that the male lead seemed to have scissor-like hands. The only scene he recalled was the male lead standing in the snow, looking back at the female lead.

       At that time, he, who didn’t understand love, only felt that these hands were a little scary.

       Years later, he re-watched this movie with his lover. Although at the beginning, he couldn’t calm down to watch due to lingering melancholy, he gradually got drawn into that virtual world.

       It was only now that he realised that the ‘snow’ he remembered from his childhood was not real snow at all.

       He didn’t know if he hadn’t understood it back then or if his memories had been altered over the years.

       When that line was spoken in the movie—This city can’t see snow, so I’ll make it snow for you. Each snowflake that falls is saying, I love you.

       He sighed and leaned on Shen Huiming’s shoulder.

       Suo Yang didn’t know if he was too greedy. He wanted both snow and rain, desiring both love and the restoration of his family relationship.

       At the end of the movie, Suo Yang said, “You forgot one thing.”

       Shen Huiming turned to look at him, “Huh? What?”

       Suo Yang smiled, “You forgot to kiss me forcefully.”

       The two of them smiled at each other, and all of Suo Yang’s sorrows dissipated in Shen Huiming’s kiss.

       A lover’s kiss was the herb of forgetfulness, the remedy for all sorrows and the antidote to all ailments.

====

       After the National Day holiday, Shen Huiming became busier than before.

       The last two months of the year were filled with wrapping up projects and planning for the next year’s work.

       Project evaluations and new project bids, as the boss, he had to personally review everything. It was manageable when Suo Yang was around; no matter how late it was, Shen Huiming would go to see him, or Suo Yang would come to the office to keep him company during overtime. However, when Suo Yang wasn’t there, Shen Huiming wished he could simply live at the office.

       Originally, the two were discussing to find an opportunity to have dinner with Shen Huiming’s parents, but due to his busy schedule, the chance never came.

       And so, the two people who had met in early autumn walked hand in hand into the city’s first snowfall. 

       Suo Yang had just got off the plane that day when he heard his colleague say, “It’s snowing.”

       He was still wearing his uniform, standing in the airport lobby, and turned his head to look out the window.

       Almost at the same time, he received a message from Shen Huiming: Have you landed? I’m here to pick you up.

       It had been a while since Shen Huiming had come to pick Suo Yang up and take him home, not that he didn’t want to, but he really didn’t have the time.

       Suo Yang also didn’t want him to come over all the time for no other reason than fearing he’d be too tired. Suo Yang figured that during the time Shen Huiming spent driving, he might as well lie down and get some rest.

       But it was undeniable that Suo Yang was very happy when Shen Huiming came.

       He called directly, “I’m out.”

       “The old place is waiting for you.” Shen Huiming said with a smile, “Do you still remember where the ‘old place’ is?”

       Suo Yang laughed, “Of course I remember. Wait for me, I’ll be right there.”

       Suo Yang swiftly carried his suitcase and hurried to meet Shen Huiming. As he approached the other party, he felt as if his steps had become light, as if love were a cloud carrying him through the bustling streets.

       The ‘old place’ Shen Huiming mentioned was the coffee shop where he had first waited for Suo Yang when picking him up.

       Because of its remote location, this store was always sparsely populated.

       Shen Huiming sat near the door, just like the last time he had waited for Suo Yang, with his book ‘On Love’. This time, however, he had his ‘love’ with him.

       Suo Yang hurried over and spotted Shen Huiming from a distance.

       He enjoyed weaving through the crowd to observe Suo Yang, relishing the feeling that ‘the only special person in the crowd is my lover’.

       He walked over and stood beside Shen Huiming with a smile.

       “Mr. Shen, good evening.” Suo Yang said with a smile in his eyes, “Do you need something to eat?”

       Shen Huiming held back a smile and looked at him, “What do you think?”

       They locked eyes, engaging in a playful exchange of glances.

       “Can we clock out now?” Shen Huiming stood up.

       “Sure, unless you are still reluctant to part with this place.”

       “A little bit, actually.” Shen Huiming followed Suo Yang out, “After all, this place can be regarded as one of our dating places.”

       They had quite a few romantic spots—on the plane, at the coffee shop, and even in a small church in Berlin.

       Like small streams merging into the sea, their bits and pieces of affection were scattered everywhere they passed together and finally converged into this intense and lasting love.

       “I brought you a gift today.” Before today, the two hadn’t seen each other for more than a week.

       Shen Huiming had been busy, and Suo Yang had swapped shifts with a colleague, which had resulted in them not having a chance to meet for over a week.

       For over a week, when they were busy, it seemed manageable as there was no time or energy to think about each other. However, once they had some rest, they couldn’t stop thinking about one another.

       Is Suo Yang on the plane?

       Has Suo Yang eaten yet?

       What time is it over where Suo Yang is?

       Does Suo Yang miss me?

       Shen Huiming felt that he might have been bewitched by Suo Yang, as he couldn’t help but think of him whenever he had a moment to spare.

       Since being together with Suo Yang, Shen Huiming’s phone has accumulated time zones from many different countries. Those who didn’t know it would think that he had a lover in every country.

       Previously, Suo Yang had come by car, and the car was parked in the parking lot specially prepared for their internal personnel.

       Now that Shen Huiming came, he didn’t bother with the car and just followed him.

       Shen Huiming had mentioned bringing a gift earlier, but he had yet to take it out. Suo Yang didn’t inquire further, and he didn’t even ask Shen Huiming where they were headed. He placed his full trust in Shen Huiming, leaning against the passenger seat and eventually drifting off to sleep.

       When Suo Yang woke up, the car had already stopped, and he realised they were parked outside Shen Huiming’s home.

       “Are you awake now?” Shen Huiming looked at him with a smile.

       “Yeah.” Suo Yang was a bit tired, having flown back for more than ten hours, he desperately needed to catch up on his sleep.

       “In that case, go home and get some sleep first. You can eat when you wake up,” Shen Huiming helped him unbuckle his seatbelt and gave him a kiss. “Get out of the car; I have a gift for you.”

       Only then did Suo Yang remember that Shen Huiming had mentioned gifts before.

       What kind of gift required him to get out of the car to receive it?

       He got out of the car in a daze and then watched Shen Huiming take his suitcase from the trunk and lead him upstairs.

       So, the gift was upstairs?

       The two entered Shen Huiming’s house. Shen Huiming put the suitcase against the wall and said to him, “Are you ready to receive my gift?”

       Suo Yang turned to look at him.

       Shen Huiming gave his ear a kiss and said, “Stay right here, don’t move, and wait for me.”

       After Shen Huiming finished his explanation, he entered the house.

       The house was dark without the lights on, except for the moonlight coming in from the big window on the other side of the living room.

       Suo Yang was obedient and stood still, waiting for Shen Huiming’s gift.

       Soon, Shen Huiming came out, pushing a small cart with a huge bunch of roses on it, surrounded by red candles.

       Suo Yang froze in surprise. This kind of plot probably only appears in idol dramas. Where did Shen Huiming learn this from?

       “The last time I went to your house, I bought you 21 roses.” Shen Huiming said, “It’s not that I’m stingy, it’s just that they didn’t have enough roses at the flower shop to make up the number I wanted. They say 21 roses represent sincere love, so I reluctantly settled for a small bouquet.”

       Suo Yang stood there, looking at him with a smile.

       “How many flowers are there this time?” Suo Yang asked with a smile.

       “101 flowers.” Shen Huiming said, “It might be cliché, but 101 roses represent that you are the one I love the most.”

       Cliché?

       Yes, it was pretty cliché.

       But for them, this kind of cliché was romantic and heartwarming.

       Suo Yang walked over and initiated a kiss, wrapping his arms around Shen Huiming’s neck. 

       “What made you decide to give me roses again?”

       “I knew you wouldn’t remember.” Shen Huiming said, “We have been together for 100 days.”

       100 days.

       A little over three months.

       Time seemed to pass both quickly and slowly for them.

       The first meeting between the two seemed like it had just happened, yet Suo Yang couldn’t wait to spend the rest of his life with Shen Huiming.

       “I’m not very good at preparing surprises,” Shen Huiming said. “While I was planning this, I realized I still know so little about you, I don’t even know what you like.”

       He put his arms around Suo Yang’s waist, “I should reflect on that.”

       His words made Suo Yang’s heart sour and swell. Who could really have a complete grasp of another person’s preferences? Shen Huiming was already meticulous enough.

       Rather than knowing every preference, having this kind of care was already quite rare.

       Suo Yang said, “You do know my favourite thing.”

       “I know?” Shen Huiming furrowed his brow, trying to recall seriously.

       Suo Yang laughed, raising his hand to unbutton his shirt, “It’s you, silly.”

       His ‘silly’ was teasing and somewhat flirtatious, which made Shen Huiming no longer in the mood to be romantic.

       His handsome flight attendant was still wearing his uniform at this time, standing there looking at him with eyes filled with affection.

       “Suo Yang…” Shen Huiming took a deep breath and firmly grasped the hand that was unbuttoning his shirt.

       Suo Yang looked up, thinking he might not want this.

       Unexpectedly, Shen Huiming held onto his hand, turned to blow out the candles, and then suddenly lifted Suo Yang, carrying him into the bedroom.

       Lovemaking was not the only expression of love, but it was indeed one of the ways to express love.

       Perhaps it was because they hadn’t seen each other for over a week, or perhaps it was because Suo Yang was touched by Shen Huiming’s romantic gesture the moment he arrived. Suo Yang, for once, took the initiative and led the way for this night.

       That included undressing Shen Huiming.

       That included making the sound of Shen Huiming’s breath.

       And it included Shen Huiming himself.

       He kissed his partner and then said, “Thank you.”

Chapter 41 – May I Leave?

September 19, 2023 / / 0 Comments

       After dinner, the man took him to the East Coast once again.

       This time, both of them dressed up casually. Chu Yu did not ask him to wear a collar or a leash. Seeing the surprised expression on Xu Ye’s face, he smiled and said, “Today’s mark is more beautiful.” Xu Ye blushed at the teasing gaze that fell on his neck. He now knew why the man chose this round-necked white sweater for him. The unobstructed hickeys on his neck clearly demonstrated his status as a sub.

       It was the weekend and the club seemed even busier than yesterday. Even without the restraints of the leash, Xu Ye stayed within one meter behind Chu Yu and concentrated on observing his master’s movements. He was much calmer than the day before.

       In the VIP members’ sitting area, the Lion, the Pharaoh, and the cat and mouse duo were all there, as well as three unfamiliar faces. Chu Yu sat down, looked at Xu Ye who was stopping at the entrance of the sitting area, and patted the seat next to him.

       Xu Ye was startled, with some surprise in his eyes.

       The VIP members’ area wasn’t particularly large. When there were a large number of people inside, the masters would ask their slaves to wait outside. Xu Ye originally thought that he would kneel with other people’s slaves, but the man just gave him the order to ‘sit next to him’. He thought about it several times and made sure that he had not mistaken the order. He walked over and sat down next to Chu Yu.

       Murmurs erupted in the venue, with many people looking over curiously. After all, doms rarely gave their subs equal status within the clubs. Xu Ye looked at his master with a slightly stuffy expression. The man smiled faintly and put his arm on the back of the sofa behind him, silently keeping him within his reach.

       The Lion whistled and joked, “Mr. Earl looks quite spirited today. You must have slept well last night.”

       “Not bad.” Chu Yu curled his lips.

       “Was it a good sleep quality or a good pre-sleep workout?” Jerry glanced at Xu Ye’s neck with a smile and asked more openly, “This guy can still get out of bed today, so it seems like the exercise wasn’t too much.”

       “Keeping the right balance is also a test of the dom’s control.” The Earl responded calmly, unfazed, “In this regard, I’ve always been moderate.”

       This kind of topic made Xu Ye blush so intensely that even the tips of his ears turned red. He kept his head down and his gaze fixed on the floor, unable to lift it. His embarrassed demeanour only made the doms find it even more amusing.

       Tom deliberately asked, “Xu Ye, is your master as much of a gentleman in bed as he is now?”

       Xu Ye raised his blushing red face after his name was called. He didn’t know how to answer, so he looked at the man next to him for help. Chu Yu smiled and helped him out, “If you’re so curious, why don’t you abandon Jerry and come over to me? You can experience firsthand what I’m like in bed.”

       “…No need.” Tom glanced at the handsome man beside him with raised eyebrows and quickly backed down.

       After chatting for a while, the venue darkened. All the lights were focused on the wooden execution frame in the centre of the venue. Then, a shirtless man walked into the light with his head lowered. The moment Xu Ye saw his face clearly, he opened his eyes wide in shock.

       The venue fell silent. Four burly men in black stood expressionlessly on both sides of the execution frame. The host with the microphone looked at the paper in his hand and said to the man, “An Xia. Ordinary member. You’ve been a member for two years, right?”

       “Yes.”

       “Yesterday you claimed that a certain slave offended you for no reason and caused him to be punished with ten lashes. After a thorough investigation by the Club’s Management Committee, it was found that you had instigated the confrontation with the slave intentionally. Not only did you violate the Membership Rules about ‘prohibitions of conflicts provocation’, but you also blatantly lied and deceived everyone. Is that correct?”

       “…Yes.” His voice trembled slightly.

       “Very well.” The host came over and asked, “Mr. Earl, because Mr. Anxia’s misconduct has brought displeasure to you and your slave. According to the rules, his punishment should be based on your objection.”

       Chu Yu casually scanned the crowd and spoke with a cold voice, “Soft whip. Twenty lashes.”

       “Sir, everything is my fault. I dare not ask for your forgiveness. I only hope that you can grant me one last favour,” An Xia knelt in his direction and continued, “Please administer my punishment yourself.”

       “I refuse.” The man’s response was firm and unequivocal, leaving no room for negotiation.

       “Sir!” An Xia couldn’t help but shout, “I love you, I have always loved you! I only ask you to let me come back to you…” His voice turned into a muffled groan, and two black-clad men promptly stepped forward, pinching his jaw and inserting a ball gag into his mouth. They then put him on the execution frame and firmly clasped his hands and feet. The execution frame was specially designed so that one could barely touch the ground with the tips of their toes, with most of the body weight supported by the suspended arms, making it extremely uncomfortable.

       Next, the black leather whip specially used for punishment came through the air and landed on his back with full force. Each strike on his flesh produced a terrifying sound that made one’s teeth ache. With each lash, blood began to seep from various parts of his back. An Xia’s face turned pale in pain, and tears streamed down his face.

       Xu Ye watched in silence. He knew that this was something arranged for him by Chu Yu, but he felt a sense of discomfort deep inside.

       “He stayed with me for two months.” the man began as if explaining something, “But due to some misconduct on his part, I terminated our Master-slave relationship.”

       Xu Ye glanced at the man enduring the punishment in the centre and softly said, “Master, may I leave for a moment?”

       He really didn’t want to witness this cruel punishment.

       A knowing smile appeared at the corner of the man’s lips as he stood up. “Sure, let’s go back together.”

       In the end, the two of them left before the twenty lashes of punishment were completed. After that appearance, Xu Ye’s name was bestowed with the title “The Earl’s Favourite” and spread throughout the entire circle.

Chapter 24 – Replica

September 19, 2023 / / 0 Comments

Chapter 24: I Want

 

They had dinner with their own thoughts, and the planned date didn’t feel as comfortable with Li Zhao’s presence.

 

Tan Xilu could sense an inexplicable hostility from Xu Huaiming toward Li Zhao. However, he didn’t know if it was because Xu Huaiming had already realized that Li Zhao was more than just a friend or if he was simply jealous, considering they had experienced similar situations in the past.

 

Before getting together with Xu Huaiming, Tan Xilu was clueless about dating. In the early stages of their relationship, they were more like regular bedmates. When one of them had the urge, they would call the other, meet up, and then part ways afterward.

 

If one of them had noticed that this arrangement was unusual, they might have opened up to each other sooner. But at the time, Xu Huaiming was still in the early stages of understanding human emotions as an AI, and Tan Xilu didn’t know what it meant to be in love.

 

The data program had given Xu Huaiming human-like emotions, but he was clumsy and couldn’t control or understand his emotions like a human. By the time he truly understood, his time was running out.

 

Tan Xilu, on the other hand, was inexperienced in relationships because he had never dated before. Moreover, same-sex marriage was not yet legal, so most same-sex couples tried to keep a low profile. Tan Xilu’s first relationship was with a man, and he was somewhat rebellious given his history as a well-behaved child.

 

After they officially became a couple, things didn’t change much from before. If there was any difference, it was that Tan Xilu could openly change his relationship status on his social media accounts from “single” to “in a relationship.”

 

Their new relationship status led to gossip among some of their acquaintances. Tan Xilu knew that Xu Huaiming didn’t like interacting with strangers, and given the sensitivity of their same-sex relationship, he often declined invitations from friends who wanted to meet him. Some friends were displeased, thinking he was being arrogant and distant, but others didn’t mind and even teased Tan Xilu, asking him to treat them to a meal for finally finding a partner.

 

In such situations, Xu Huaiming felt a pang of jealousy.

 

It all started with a “single and ready to mingle” party that included a senior student. Xu Huaiming had minimal interaction

 

 with Tan Xilu and the senior, and Tan Xilu couldn’t remember inviting the senior, but he didn’t turn him away when he arrived.

 

Tan Xilu had informed Xu Huaiming in advance that they would be returning late due to the gathering, so when it reached 10 PM and Xu Huaiming still hadn’t received a call, he became worried. Meanwhile, Tan Xilu was starting to feel a little tipsy.

 

He usually didn’t socialize much, but he had some friends who were outgoing and loved to have a good time. Tan Xilu was a kind-hearted person and found it hard to refuse, so he ended up with a flushed face after a few drinks.

 

Someone handed him another drink, and Tan Xilu shook his head, saying, “I really can’t drink anymore.”

 

He didn’t want Xu Huaiming to be upset.

 

But as the glass was pushed into his hand, Tan Xilu couldn’t bring himself to refuse again, so he reluctantly downed the drink.

 

Just after finishing the drink, Tan Xilu felt his vision blur, and he began to lose his balance. He swayed on the spot for a moment, feeling the room spin. A few seconds later, his body involuntarily leaned backward.

 

The expected pain didn’t come. Instead, when Tan Xilu opened his eyes, he found that a senior student had caught him.

 

Tan Xilu immediately regained his senses, stood up, but his legs felt weak, and he couldn’t maintain his balance. The senior student supported him and told him to be careful.

 

Tan Xilu nodded and thanked the senior politely. He was about to say something when his phone, which he had taken out earlier, rang. He answered the call, speaking hurriedly. Worried that he might fall, the senior followed him.

 

Tan Xilu reached the doorway, adjusted his clothes, and then ran outside in a hurry. He didn’t want to keep Xu Huaiming waiting and was afraid he might fall again. The senior followed him.

 

When Tan Xilu reached the entrance of the hall, he finally spotted Xu Huaiming. He jumped into the arms of the man and was instantly kissed.

 

Seeing them kiss, the senior suddenly realized that this man was probably Tan Xilu’s partner. What he hadn’t expected was that it was a man.

 

He couldn’t help but wonder if he should have made a move earlier if he had known that Tan Xilu liked men too.

 

The other man seemed to notice his presence and looked in his direction. The senior felt a shiver down his spine as he saw those eyes – eyes that didn’t belong to a human, eyes like a thousand icy knives gathering in the pupils, stabbing at him.

 

Painful and cold.

 

After their kiss, Tan Xilu finally realized that the senior had been watching. Feeling a bit embarrassed, he introduced the senior to his partner. “Senior, this is my boyfriend.”

 

The senior glanced at him and then at Xu Huaiming. He smiled and said, “That’s great. I wish you both happiness.”

 

That night, when Tan Xilu returned home, he received a regretful confession message from the senior. The message read:

 

“I once had deep affection for you, but unfortunately, I wasn’t brave enough to confess earlier. I wish you happiness, and may everything be well.”

 

After reading the message, Tan Xilu felt a pang of jealousy for several nights. During those days, he could barely focus on his classes. He couldn’t believe that he had to go through this kind of situation again because of Li Zhao.

 

Now, with Li Zhao’s presence, Tan Xilu was starting to worry about his backside.

 

However, when they finally returned home and Tan Xilu lay down on the bed, Xu Huaiming showed no signs of being upset. Instead, he worried that Tan Xilu might not have eaten properly and heated up some dumplings Lin Changyu had sent earlier in the day.

 

While eating dumplings, Tan Xilu deliberately made sure he was full, just in case Xu Huaiming had some devious plan. He even informed a teacher with whom he had a good relationship that if he didn’t receive a message by 8 AM the next day, he would be taking a week off.

 

A week should be enough, Tan Xilu thought. He didn’t want to die so young because of this.

 

However, when he lay in bed for half an hour, Xu Huaiming hadn’t done anything unusual. He was just reading a magazine as he usually did. That didn’t seem right, and Tan Xilu turned on his side to look at Xu Huaiming.

 

At first, Xu Huaiming didn’t notice Tan Xilu’s gaze. But when he did, he thought Tan Xilu wanted a goodnight kiss. So, he put down his magazine and leaned in to kiss him.

 

Tan Xilu thought that finally, things were getting started, closed his eyes, and hugged Xu Huaiming’s shoulder. They kissed for a while, but then Xu Huaiming kissed his cheek and said, “Goodnight, let’s go to sleep.”

 

Tan Xilu: “…”

 

My pants are already off, and you’re telling me this?

Chapter 23 – Replica

September 19, 2023 / / 0 Comments

Chapter 23: Evening Maple Song

 

The extravagant banquet hosted by Chi Yexing was held in the largest private room on the second floor. Young people from affluent families tended to favor extravagance. Although there weren’t many people in attendance, the private room had to be the grandest, and the dishes had to be the best, no matter the cost.

 

A plate of Australian lobsters was just placed on the table, large and imposing, surrounded by crushed ice and positioned in the center. A young lady sitting nearby had never seen such a massive lobster before, and she exclaimed with a “wow,” taking out her phone from her bag to take a picture.

 

Li Zhao moved his teacup away from the edge of the table, afraid that the young lady might accidentally knock it over.

 

The young lady noticed his gesture, blushed, and apologized, “Sorry.”

 

Li Zhao smiled at her and shook his head, saying, “It’s okay.”

 

The girl smiled back at him, her cheeks even redder, and put her phone away without taking any more pictures.

 

Li Zhao inadvertently captured the heart of a young lady with a simple interaction. Chi Yexing patted Li Zhao’s shoulder and asked, “What’s up with you, kid?”

 

Chi Yexing sat on Li Zhao’s other side, and he had been drinking quite a bit, but he had a good tolerance for alcohol, so he was only slightly flushed at this point. He had invited Li Zhao to help prepare for the engagement ceremony. He had even invited several of the bride’s close friends, all in an effort to surprise her. Little did he know that after a few drinks, Li Zhao was already exchanging flirtatious glances with one of the bride’s friends.

 

“What can I do?” Li Zhao made a clicking sound with his tongue. He could tell from Chi Yexing’s expression what was going on. “What are you thinking, my friend?”

 

Chi Yexing didn’t want to waste too much time on small talk. After filling Li Zhao’s glass with wine, he began discussing the main topic of the day, “This engagement is quite important to Shanshan’s parents, so both the engagement and the proposal ceremony need to be special. Shanshan likes romance, so we can’t make it too ordinary. You need to come up with some ideas.”

 

Chi Yexing had entrusted Li Zhao with planning the engagement ceremony because Li Zhao had a wealth of experience in matters of the heart. He knew that Shanshan favored romantic gestures, and he believed Li Zhao could deliver.

 

“I think nowadays, girls like a more free-spirited kind of romance,” Li Zhao suggested. “Shanshan often posts scenic photos on her social media, so she must enjoy traveling. You could plan a trip together and propose during the journey.”

 

“That’s not a bad idea,” Chi Yexing pondered for a moment. “But I’ll need to do a lot of research for the trip. Shanshan is quite picky.”

 

“Girls, you know,” Li Zhao chuckled. “You’ll be marrying her, so putting in some extra effort is worth it, right?”

 

Chi Yexing nodded in agreement, seemingly accepting Li Zhao’s suggestion.

 

Back in their university days, Chi Yexing and Li Zhao had been aware of each other’s existence but had never really interacted. Rumors had circulated about each of them. Chi Yexing had heard that Li Zhao was a spoiled and rebellious young master, while Li Zhao had heard that Chi Yexing was a cunning schemer who had returned to the Chi family to compete for inheritance. These rumors had created a certain level of distrust between them.

 

Their first significant interaction happened because of a senior student who was interested in both of them. Chi Yexing had broken up with the senior student after learning that she was also chatting with Li Zhao. Li Zhao, being the type to swiftly move on, immediately ended the relationship as well.

 

This incident had brought them closer, and Li Zhao had realized that Chi Yexing was not as calculating as the rumors had suggested. In fact, Chi Yexing often took the blame for things he didn’t do just to avoid conflicts.

 

Chi Yexing, on the other hand, had learned about Li Zhao’s straightforward personality and his aversion to complicated relationships. This made Chi Yexing more comfortable around him.

 

Since then, they had become friends, although they still held a certain level of wariness toward each other. But they had both matured, and their priorities had shifted. Chi Yexing was focused on his career, while Li Zhao had set aside his romantic pursuits to help his friend plan an unforgettable proposal.

 

Li Zhao took a sip of his drink, the fiery liquor burning down his throat and making him feel slightly numb. At some point, the waiter had brought dessert, and the young lady next to him was enjoying a small cake.

 

Li Zhao’s gaze landed on the cake, and he remembered that Tan Xilu liked this particular kind.

 

He asked the young lady, “Do you find this cake delicious?”

 

The young lady, taken aback by the sudden question, choked a bit on her cake, coughing a few times. She then blushed and nodded, replying, “It’s very delicious.”

 

“Do you really like it?” Li Zhao inquired further.

 

Her cheeks flushed even more as she nodded again.

 

When the girl lowered her head, Li Zhao suddenly noticed that she had a mole on her earlobe, in the exact same spot as the one on Tan Xilu’s ear. His heart couldn’t help but flutter, and before he even realized it himself, he blurted out, “Are you free tonight?”

 

Li Zhao was someone who didn’t discriminate between men and women, but in recent years, he had avoided getting involved with girls to avoid complications. He was still young and wanted to have some fun for a few more years. If he could settle down and marry Tan Xilu, that would be fine, but otherwise, he would still be subject to arranged marriages within his family.

 

At the end of the second-floor corridor, there was a large balcony where you could enjoy a panoramic view of the city. Li Zhao leaned against the railing, smoking a cigarette. It was dusk, and the sun had gradually dipped below the horizon, casting lingering sunlight through the balcony’s glass windows.

 

The orange spark of a lighter flickered on and off as Li Zhao exhaled a deep breath. He remembered that after he had spoken those words, the young girl had widened her eyes, stared at him for a moment, and then slapped him. He couldn’t help but chuckle.

 

He had underestimated the girl, thinking she was the type he could casually invite out as he used to at parties. Little did he know that the girl was from a respectable family and Lin Shan’s junior from elementary school.

 

The slap had instantly sobered him up, leaving a bright red imprint on his face. It was then that he learned the girl was no ordinary person.

 

Before leaving, Li Zhao had brought a bottle of ice-cold mineral water with him. He had to admit that the girl had quite some strength; his face still stung, and it was probably a bit swollen.

 

With one hand, Li Zhao pressed the mineral water bottle lightly against his face, massaging it gently. As the bottle’s coldness melted, his cheeks soon became wet. Li Zhao had no choice but to put the bottle down, take a tissue from his pocket to dry his face, and then dry the water bottle. He then resumed massaging his face, repeating the process.

 

When you were alone and quiet, it was easy to think about various random things. Li Zhao found himself thinking about the scene he had witnessed at the research institute that day.

 

He had visited the institute once, entering through the back door. As he entered, he happened to see someone coming out of the laboratory and walking to the front door. He also saw that person standing by the fountain for a while, tossing something in and then picking it up. Later, when he saw Professor Bowen, he mentioned it casually.

 

The day before, when he had mentioned his visit to the professor, they had arranged to meet today because the institute was on holiday.

 

Little A didn’t seem to like Li Zhao much. When he entered, Little A had growled at him in a hostile manner, unlike his friendly behavior towards Tan Xilu. But Li Zhao had developed a liking for this AI puppy and would often squat down to pet its fur.

 

This time, Li Zhao had come to inquire about 059’s situation and how he was doing now.

 

Professor Bowen said, “059 has been working as a training instructor recently. The new AI models that have just come out still need adjustments, such as refining their body language and facial expressions, making them more natural. He’s responsible for helping them with that.”

 

“Sounds like he’s doing well,” Li Zhao teased Little A. “But what I really want to know is, did his memory truly get erased? I’ve heard that these new AI models have powerful memory capabilities. What if he regains his memories someday?”

 

“That won’t happen. You’re talking about the latest AI models,” Professor Bowen explained. “059 was independently developed by Xiao Zhou. He’s different from the latest AI models, which are designed to mimic humans completely. They can’t be distinguished from humans in terms of appearance or actions, and they can even have a certain level of independent thinking. 059 can also have his own thoughts, but he is still subject to Xiao Zhou’s control. Compared to the latest models, he’s more obedient.”

 

Li Zhao asked, “So, Professor, are you saying that the latest AI models are even more advanced?”

 

Professor Bowen became excited as he talked about it. “Absolutely! They are truly remarkable.”

 

With a hint of pride, Professor Bowen continued, “But don’t tell anyone this: the latest AI models were actually developed by the previous generation of AI. It’s a program creating another program, isn’t that amazing?”

 

He went on to explain, “AI has precise data and programs; they don’t make mistakes. So, the AI models developed by machines are more advanced than those developed by humans. Their systems rarely encounter errors.”

 

“But, you know, no matter how advanced research technology is, there are always drawbacks because machines are cold and emotionless. Regardless of replicates…”

Chapter 40 – A Slap in the Face

September 19, 2023 / / 0 Comments

       Xu Ye slept straight through until after ten o’clock the next day. The big bed in the master bedroom was empty, and Chu Yu was not there.

       He moved, feeling sore all over as if he had been torn apart and put back together again. Especially his thighs and waist; it was like they were about to fall apart. The hole in the back still had the feeling of being invaded by a foreign object. There was a slight feeling of coolness inside, which must have been something like ointment. The traces left by the man on his body were still vivid in his mind. Thinking of the scene where he cried and begged for mercy yesterday and then fell asleep in the bathtub due to exhaustion, Xu Ye’s whole body suddenly turned red like a ripe shrimp.

       However, there was a sense of security in his heart. He wasn’t a particularly confident person, so he always put a lot of pressure on himself at work, striving for perfection in everything he did. He had always been doubtful in his interactions with Chu Yu. The question of ‘Why did he choose me?’ often unconsciously lingered in his mind. Last night, Chu Yu had given him a clear answer for the first time, dispelling all those messy thoughts.

       It was hard to muster up the energy to crawl out of bed despite feeling sore all over. Xiao Xun was talking to Uncle Ye in the dining room. When he saw him coming downstairs, he smiled and said, “Young Master Xu, do you want to have breakfast now?”

       “Yes please. Sorry for the trouble.” Xu Ye walked to the dining table, and the butler pulled out a chair for him very naturally. As he looked at the thick cushion that suddenly appeared on the leather chair, Xu Ye’s face suddenly became hot, and he absentmindedly sat down, flipping through the financial morning newspaper on the table.

       “The fish fillet porridge was prepared for you as ordered by the Second Young Master.” Xiao Xun placed the white porcelain bowl in front of him and placed a few plates of light side dishes. “Second Young Master asked me to inform you that he will be back before 5 o’clock in the evening. If you plan to go out, please let Leopard accompany you. For your well-being, he prefers you not to dine outside. I’ve prepared several sets of different outfits for you and put them in your room.”

       “I understand, thank you.”

       Only when Xu Ye saw those clothes did he realise xiao Xun’s meticulousness. The styles of the clothes were different, but one thing was the same–they all had high collars. He blushed as he stood before the mirror, pulling up the collar to cover the strawberry-coloured hickeys on his neck. Then he had Leopard drive him to the company. Lily had sent him an email reporting that there was a decline in sales in several branches, and he wanted to investigate the details.

       Just as he had settled into his office, Xu Ting entered with long strides and sternly said to Lily, who was reporting to him, “Leave!”

       The female secretary was frightened by his sombre expression, immediately backed out and closed the door.

       “What’s going on?” Xu Ting looked at his son and asked, “How did you and the second son of the Chu family get together? Did he force you…”

       “No.” Xu Ye cut him off, “The relationship between him and me is my private matter, and I don’t need to explain it to you.”

       “Your personal affairs?” Xu Ting laughed in anger, “Do you know what people will say behind your back if they find out you got involved with him? They’ll say that you, my son, climbed into the second young master of the Chu family’s bed for a piece of land, offering himself to a man!”

       Xu Ye’s gaze turned colder by the moment as if he were looking at a stranger. He let out a soft, sarcastic laugh. “So, you’re worried about what others might say. When you were scheming to get Song Wannian on your side for that piece of land, when you were playing matchmaker between Song Yueran and me, when you were bringing those women home in different ways to sleep with them, why weren’t you worried about what others might say…”

       A sharp sound interrupted his words abruptly.

       The side of Xu Ye’s face that was hit to one side gradually turned red.

       “You…” Xu Ting was trembling with anger, “How did I end up with a son like you…”

       Xu Ye’s dark eyes glowed with a strange and cold light, “Isn’t it too late to regret now?”

       Xu Ting gritted his teeth, “Do you think people from the Chu family are good people? Do you know what means they use to get things done? If you offend them, forget this company; you might not even be able to protect your own life. You’re locking yourself up with a beast, and you think you can walk away unscathed?”

       “I never thought about escaping unscathed.” Xu Ye lowered his eyes and said very frankly, “If he is willing, I will always be by his side.”

       Xu Ting was completely stunned. After a long while, he shook his head with a pale face and said, “You are simply… beyond help!” After that, he slammed the door and walked out.

       That slap was so powerful that the red marks on his face didn’t disappear for a long time. When Xu Ye finished handling the work matters and came out of the office, Leopard stared at his face. He suddenly emitted an aura of hostility and asked in a low voice, “Who hit you?”

       Xu Ye smiled helplessly, “My dad.”

       Leopard frowned, his expression relaxed a little, and he drove off.

       When he returned to Hanguan No. 8, Xu Ye took an ice pack and applied it to his face for a long time, but the side of his face was still a little red. He sighed in frustration at the mirror, “Is this old fox going through menopause or something? He’s so hot-tempered…”

       In the afternoon, he had been sitting on the recliner by the floor-to-ceiling window, reading performance reports. The sunlight was warm and gentle, and he fell asleep without realizing it. In a half-dream, half-wake state, he felt a slight itch on his cheek and opened his eyes.

       The man sitting beside him was quietly watching him. His warm fingers were gently caressing his cheek, where faint red marks remained.

       “…You’re back.” Xu Ye sat up.

       “Did Xu Ting hit you?” Chu Yu asked directly. It seemed that he had already received the news from Leopard.

       “When I went to the company this morning, I talked back to him a bit, and it ended with him slapping me,”

       “What was the topic that made him so angry to the point of resorting to violence?” The man gently pinched his chin to adjust the angle, taking a closer look at the marks on his face.

       Xu Ye pursed his lips, his expression somewhat awkward and embarrassed.

       “Don’t want to say?” Chu Yu smiled and said, “That’s fine. I won’t ask further.”

       “Master…” Xu Ye suddenly felt panicked.

       “Don’t be nervous. I won’t be angry about this.” The man raised his hand and put the small ice pack on the table against his cheek with a gentle expression, “Xu Ye, I respect your privacy and believe in your ability to handle the problem. But when you encounter difficulties and cannot solve them with your own strength, I hope to be the first person you turn to for help. I am willing to stand behind you and be your support at any time.”

       Xu Ye’s eyes trembled, and there was silent gratitude in his black and white eyes. He leaned forward and rested his head on the other person’s shoulder.

       Chu Yu’s voice was close to his ear, and his deliberately lowered voice was a little more ambiguous, “If I had known that if I let you go out, you would come back with such traces, I should have made it so that you couldn’t get out of bed last night.” The palm of his hand stroked the back of his waist and pressed slightly harder, causing Xu Ye to tremble unconsciously. The tip of his tongue licked the earlobe with a moist and hot breath, intensified his trembling. “You know that a dom has a strong desire to control. When one sees marks on their sub’s body that are not his, they will want to tie their sub up and ruthlessly and punish them severely, making them remember who they belong to with their bodies.” The fingers inserted into Xu Ye’s pants went deep into the crack of his buttocks, teasing the poor hole that had been entered yesterday. “How do you think I should punish you, huh?”

       “Uhn…Master…” Xu Ye gasped and softened his body, completely leaning into the other person’s arms.

       This kind of reaction was developed under Chu Yu’s training. From the initial tightness and tension to its current natural and unreserved state, with no trace of resistance or barriers.

       “I’ll give you a chance,” the man’s pitch-black eyes were like unfading stars. “Now, kiss me, and this time, I’ll pretend I didn’t see anything.”

       Before he finished speaking, Xu Ye raised his chin, closed his eyes and pressed it against the smiling lips.

Chapter 39 – The Main Course

September 19, 2023 / / 0 Comments

       Xu Ye looked at Chu Yu in confusion, but before he could react, he was already lifted in princess style. The change in posture caused the insertion in his body to be squeezed deeply, causing him to grunt, panting, and reach out to wrap his arms around the man’s neck, seeking solace.

       The warm and tender body in his embrace, the teary eyes, and the complete surrender all ignited the desire suppressed in the man’s eyes, instantly spreading into a raging inferno. He carried Xu Ye all the way into the master bedroom on the second floor and then pinned him down forcefully between the soft mattresses. It was as if a hungry beast had caught its first prey in days, and it couldn’t wait but was reluctant to take a bite. The delicate kisses travelled down from the lips, licking, gently devouring, flowing in every sensitive area that made Xu Ye tremble, skimming over those red whip marks that had not yet dissipated, like leaving a mark of one’s white jade like body, as if marking territory.

       “Hmm…” Xu Ye’s whole body softened in the heat of the moment, and he lay on his back in a powerless state, letting the man take charge of everything. His inner thighs were tortured by the man’s lips and teeth, sometimes tensed and sometimes quivering. The pillow raised the back of the waist, the knees were held and pulled outwards, and the asshole with a thick massage stick appeared shyly in front of the other party. “Don’t look…” Xu Ye trembled in shame, trying to bring his legs together, but he couldn’t resist at all; instead, he was spread wider.

       “Don’t move.” The man took off his bathrobe and threw it on the ground.

       A naked body.

       Clean and crisp muscle lines.

       A beastly expression filled with dangerous desire.

       Facing Chu Yu like this, Xu Ye felt that even the air became hot, and the restless desire in his body intensified. However, when his gaze fell upon the astonishingly formidable weapon between the other’s thighs, his face turned pale, and he trembled with unease.

       The man patted his buttocks soothingly and pulled out the di-do submerged in the asshole little by little. His deep voice was heart-warming and gentle, “Slave, I will not hurt you.” He said softly, “Never.”

       Hearing those words, Xu Ye suddenly felt a little sour. Chu Yu’s crotch had swelled to such an extent. As a man, he knew how uncomfortable it was to endure. In order to minimize all possible injuries and pains, his master suppressed his desire in an almost perverted way, patiently waiting for him to gradually adapt with long foreplay.

       —How do you know that I don’t like you the same way you like me?

       In a trance, Xu Ye suddenly remembered the words he said, and his heart seemed to be filled with something, rich and warm.

       The moment the di-do completely left the body, the top of the hot and hard tip of the man’s c0ck touched the entrance of his asshole. Xu Ye resisted the instinct to shrink back and tremblingly opened his mouth, “Master… everything about me belongs to you, please…” Unable to continue speaking, his face flushed like a blazing cloud. He looked at the other party with glistening eyes, and he shyly raised his lower body slightly to match the angle at which the other party entered. Like a sacrificial tribute, he reverently handed himself over to the gods.

       The strings of reason snapped. Chu Yu couldn’t bear it any longer, stood up and rammed his c0ck into the front end of Xu Ye’s secret cave.

       “Ahn…” A vague moan echoed in the huge bedroom. The man’s c0ck, which was bigger than the di-do, stretched the sphincter to the limit. Xu Ye trembled all over and tightly grasped the bed sheet with his eyes closed.

       The man’s breathing also became heavy. The front of the c0ck surrounded by moisture and heat pushed open the tunnel, and the extreme pleasure spread from there to the limbs. “Open your eyes.” Chu Yu spread Xu Ye’s legs that were powerlessly hanging by his side further apart and supported his buttocks with his palms to force him to raise his lower abdomen.

       From such an angle, the slave could clearly see every detail of his master’s entry. It was like a simple, brutal ritual that signalled his master’s complete possession of him.

       Under the command, Xu Ye tremblingly watched the ferocious weapon slowly but firmly penetrate inch by inch. The feeling of the tunnel being stretched to the limit by the man’s thick intruding object made him breathless. Every time the c0ck entered, some of the lubricating fluid in the body was squeezed out, dripping down the cracks of his buttocks and wetting the bedsheets.

       “Good boy, relax.” Chu Yu’s voice was a little hoarse as he patiently and gently rubbed the opening of Xu Ye’s hole. The moment the person under him gradually softened his waist, he pushed up and thrust the whole thing in completely.

       “Ah—” Xu Ye, who was caught off guard by such an intrusion, arched his body backwards like he was electrocuted and gasped in shock. The passage contracted in response, tightly wrapping the hot shaft that lay across the body. The man grunted and smiled wryly, “Relax, slave, you are clamping too tightly.”

       The giant beast that lurked in the pathway remained motionless, giving the other man enough time to adjust, and Chu Yu leaned in, relentlessly soothing him with small kisses. The man’s wet and hot tongue curled up the bud on his chest, taking it into his mouth and biting it with light and heavy strokes. The subtle pain and tingling sensations were mixed together, and the lust that dissipated due to the discomfort was aroused again.

       “Master… uhn…” Xu Ye’s eyes were full of tears as he panted to relax his tense body. The feeling of soreness in his asshole made him go crazy, and he recklessly spit out two words, “Hold me… “

       There was a vague low laugh from above. “You’re getting more and more courageous. You dare to order me now, huh?” With that rising nasal sound, the man slammed his slowly partially withdrawn shaft. Xu Ye let out a scream and gasped to catch Chu Yu’s arms that were propped up on both sides of his body.

       The man pressed Xu Ye’s wrists above his head and began to move slowly. Each stroke was a gentle withdrawal, followed by a ferocious slam into the depths. When he thrust until his shaft all went in, the ballsack slapped the buttocks and made a clapping sound, intertwined with the sound of the lubricating fluid stirring, forming a lewd and erotic concerto. Such a powerful attack made Xu Ye completely defeated, moaning intermittently, “Woo…Master, I was wrong…ahn, I was wrong…”

       As the frequency of the pumping and thrusting continued to increase, Xu Ye threw back his slender neck like a dying swan, and his crying moan echoed in the room. When the hot tip hit a certain place, the extreme pleasure brought by the gland being squeezed made him dizzy for a while, and the delicate genitals between his legs dripped transparent liquid. Xu Ye shuddered and cried out tremblingly, “Ah—there, no…Master…”

       “You don’t have the right to say ‘no’ to me.” Chu Yu’s lustful voice sounded as intoxicating as opium, “If I hear those words again, I’ll gag your mouth until you can’t cry out anymore.” Every thrust after went straight to the extremely sensitive point, and Xu Ye, who had been overwhelmed to the point of insanity, had already lost the ability to think, and the tears in the corners of his eyes were hanging on his eyelashes. He cried out hoarsely, “I can’t take it anymore…ah, master, please…” The flush that rose all over his body made him look very seductive, and his out-of-focus eyes were in a daze. All the senses were lost; only the stimulation brought by the repeated thrust was layered one after another, tumultuously undulating, eagerly seeking a release.

       “You are not allowed to cum until I allow it.” The man’s orders were ringing in his ears, and at this moment, Xu Ye was already lost in the sea of surging desire, and the heavy thrusts made it difficult for him to control himself any longer, so he cried out and arched his body like a fish. The moment the white milky liquid spewed out from his c0ck, his asshole tightened up as if it was a hot and humid mouth sucking hard on the c0ck that invaded it.

       Chu Yu’s vigorous desire was almost gushed out by Xu Ye’s forceful grip. He panted and looked at the man below him, trembling absentmindedly after orga-m, and pursed his lips, “It seems today I need to teach you some bedroom manners.”

       Before Xu Ye could regain his senses, his body had already been turned upside down into a kneeling position. The rear entry style will allow the intruder to penetrate deeper, and such a kneeling position similar to animal mating would be more humiliating psychologically. Xu Ye’s legs were still a little weak, and as soon as the man moved, he was slapped heavily on his buttocks.

       “Kneel down.” The man ordered in a deep voice.

       Xu Ye didn’t dare to move anymore and stiffly maintained a posture with a soft waist and buttocks. The feeling of not being able to see the other party at all made him feel a little panicked. The moment he turned his head and looked back, Chu Yu pushed in hard, making him almost unsteady on his knees.

       “Ahh—Master…”

       “Who allowed you to look back?”

       The man’s ferocious repeated thrust gave Xu Ye the illusion that his body was about to be pierced, and the two hands that were firmly confined to the side of his waist gave him no place to hide. He clutched the bed sheet tightly, begging for mercy softly, “Master, it hurts… ah… I was wrong, please…”

       “Do you still remember that I am your Master?” The punitive intrusion was a little rougher than before. Every time the c0ck submerged in the depths was pulled out quickly, the tender flesh at the mouth of the hole will be turned up, and the powerful slap of the ballslack made a sluggish sound on the buttocks. Chu Yu said in a deep voice, “Reflect on what you did wrong just now.”

       Unspeakable pain and pleasure mingled together, concentrated in the sunken honeypot behind him. The hot pen-s that came in and out between the buttocks made Xu Ye, who was powerless to resist, tremble. He choked, stuttering out about his guilt intermittently, “I offended you just now. I shouldn’t have told you no…ah, it hurts…I shouldn’t have ejaculated without your permission…I know I was wrong, Master… woo woo, I shouldn’t have looked back… I don’t dare anymore… forgive me…”

       The appearance of the docile and kneeling person trembling and begging for mercy under his control was more likely to arouse the desire to torture in the heart of a man. Chu Yu could have many means to punish this disobedient slave; even the little toys he had prepared were useless. On the one hand, because this was Xu Ye’s first night, he needed to control the whole process not to be too intense. On the other hand, he hoped to enjoy more raw sex with Xu Ye. With no other barrier, only each other.

       To Chu Yu’s surprise, their bodies fit very well. Except for the fact that Xu Ye’s ejaculation tolerance still needs to be adjusted, the intercourse process was almost perfect. Xu Ye didn’t resist the insertion and could enjoy the pleasure. Maybe he didn’t even realize that when the sensitive point was hit, he would subconsciously tighten his asshole as if he wanted to keep the intruder in. This feeling made Chu Yu very happy.

       Under the repeated thrust, the c0ck between Xu Ye’s legs quietly raised his head again. Chu Yu pulled out his c0ck, which was still stiff, and asked him to turn over and lie on his back. “You want me to forgive you?”

       Xu Ye nodded his head with a trembling voice, his eyelashes already wet with tears.

       “Okay.” There was a playful smile on Chu Yu’s lips, “Hold your knees with both hands and spread your legs wide. Then express your sincerity to me.”

       Xu Ye spread himself as commanded, and there was an inexplicable emptiness in the stretched and abandoned tunnel. The invitation-like gesture was so humiliating that he was at a loss for words. He looked at the man tremblingly and called out softly, “Master…”

       Chu Yu squinted his eyes and remained motionless.

       “Please…” Xu Ye spat out those few words pitifully, “Mmm…Master, please come in…” Seeing that the other party still didn’t respond, his face turned blood red, and he cried, “Please thrust in…”

       The man chuckled, and when his hot pen-s entered again, he was much gentler, squeezing out the emptiness in the secret passage bit by bit. Xu Ye made a vague guttural sound and relaxed his body obediently. When he was being entered, he had an unprecedented feeling of being filled with his soul, banishing the loneliness and isolation that had followed him for so many years.

       Insertion. Withdrawal. All the desire to be given by another man. It made him want to rely on it, to drown in it.

       In the hands of his master, Xu Ye’s sensitivity was unbelievably high, and he could easily ejaculate when he squeezed the prostate continuously. However, Chu Yu’s durability was also astonishingly high. After Xu Ye disobediently ejaculated for the first time, the man no longer allowed him to ejaculate. The poor slave was held tightly by the genitals, tremblingly enduring wave after wave of desire, and when he was in a state of confusion, he uttered many shameful pleas under the man’s teasing, waiting to be allowed to be with the other party to cum. He was crying so hard that his voice was hoarse when the man allowed him to cum.

       After the afterglow of the climax, Chu Yu held Xu Ye in his arms and stroked his sweaty hair with his fingers, “Is it uncomfortable?”

       Xu Ye leaned his head on the man’s shoulder and could feel the rising and falling breathing of the other party. He shook his head, hesitated, and asked, “Just now…did I make you feel good?”

       “You care more about my feelings?”

       “I want to know, compared to your previous slaves…” He glanced at the man’s expression and dared not continue, full of regret in his heart, and apologized in a low voice, “I’m sorry, master.”

       Chu Yu didn’t speak.

       The atmosphere became a little stiff. Xu Ye curled up, not daring to move.

       “Xu Ye.” After a moment of silence, the man raised his hand and rubbed his hair, “Every dom has different criteria when choosing a sub. The reason why I chose you is not because I want to casually find a sub to relieve my loneliness, nor is it because you are better than all the others.” He paused, “For me, you are special. There’s something so pure in your eyes that draws me to you. I love the way you give me trust and dependence little by little. It’s beautiful. So don’t worry about the things you can’t control. Just be yourself.”

       Xu Ye put his arms around his master’s waist, pressed his face against his chest, and said softly, “Okay.”

       “Get up and take a shower.” Chu Yu patted his butt. 

       Xu Ye’s legs were already weak, and he wanted to force himself to get up, but as soon as he got off the bed, he was carried across the room into the bathroom by the man.

Chapter 60 – Who Says Omegas Can’t be as Explosive as Alphas

September 19, 2023 / / 0 Comments

Chapter 60

In the temporary mech adjustment room, Lu Jingning was tilting his head, taking a few sips of energy drink. His gaze wandered through the only small window on the wall, lost in thought. 

 

Beside him, Yan Hebin had just finished the final adjustments. After putting away the data in his hands, he happened to see Lu Jingning sitting there and asked, “Feeling tired?”

 

Lu Jingning came back to his senses upon hearing the question, and replied somewhat unclearly, “A bit.”

 

He scratched the hair on the side of his head and instinctively glanced out of the window. It had been quite some time since they strictly followed the Rule of Alpha chasing, but there was no specific duration mentioned, leaving him uncertain about how long he should wait before making a move.

 

Having refrained from flirting for a few days due to some recent events, Lu Jingning was getting the urge to approach Wen Xingchen again. On the other hand, he was also afraid that this cat-and-mouse game might not be at the right level yet, leading to failure.

 

After pondering for a while, he finally made a decision. Since they were currently busy with the university’s mech exchange event, it should be almost time to make a move after it’s over. He could arrange a uniquely creative confession, one that would be considered perfect.

 

With his mind made up, Lu Jingning temporarily set aside his thoughts about that matter and focused on the mech, asking, “Is the mech finally complete?”

 

Yan Hebin nodded and said, “Yes, it’s completed.”

 

As they spoke, the door to the temporary mech adjustment room opened from the outside, and two people entered one after the other. When Bing Yunlin saw them standing there, a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes as he asked, “Are you both ready?”

 

Yan Hebin nodded again, and Yu Zeyang walked up to the console, quickly checking all aspects of the attributes and evaluating, “The completion level is very high.”

 

Lu Jingning had not seen this vice president since the pirate incident. Although their relationship had eased a bit, he was still particularly sensitive to matters of sexual orientation discrimination. So, when he found a chance to catch Yu Zeyang off-guard, he couldn’t help but seize the opportunity.

 

With his sarcasm skill in full swing, Lu Jingning hoped to make the usually arrogant guy bow his head and apologize right then and there. Indeed, as expected, Yu Zeyang’s face turned sour when he was provoked, and he retorted, “You know nothing!”

 

Lu Jingning raised an eyebrow, feeling satisfied, and said, “You’re wrong. I know much more than you do!”

 

Bing Yunlin, finding the situation amusing, interrupted their confrontation, saying, “Alright, that’s enough from both of you.”

 

Upon Bing Yunlin’s stern look, Yu Zeyang held back what he wanted to say. Before leaving, however, he stopped at the doorway and turned to Lu Jingning, saying, “Yan Hebin’s mech is indeed very powerful, but it also means it demands a lot from the operator. When you participate in the exchange event, you must pay attention to the distribution of pheromones. Don’t… embarrass our club.”

 

Though Lu Jingning had full confidence in his own pheromone control, and his previous disorder had completely recovered, he found it slightly irritating that Yu Zeyang seemed to be overemphasizing the issue. Smiling nonchalantly, he replied, “Vice President, rest assured. Mech control is my expertise.”

 

It was indeed the truth, but the tone he used made it sound like he was bragging.

 

Yu Zeyang seemed like he wanted to say something else, but Bing Yunlin pulled him away by the collar, saying, “Stop nagging. They know what they’re doing. Don’t you have other things to attend to? Don’t let it get in the way.”

 

Quietly watching the two leave, Yan Hebin suddenly spoke up, “Did you notice that the vice president seems to be overly concerned about Omega operating mechs?”

 

“Who cares what he does? That guy is a potential straight-Alpha cancer!” Lu Jingning clearly didn’t have much interest in the topic. He stretched lazily and asked, “So, is there anything else? If not, I’m going back, feeling so tired…”

 

…

 

The next afternoon during the specialized class, Lu Jingning continued to maintain his aloof and cool demeanor as planned. Wen Xingchen looked at his expressionless face and struggled to resist the urge to remove the mask he was wearing. The night before, he had thought it through and decided to follow Lu Jingning’s pace, assuming such a thing really existed.

 

Letting out a sigh in his heart, Wen Xingchen asked, “So, you’re leaving today?”

 

“Yeah, I’ll probably be back in about three days,” Lu Jingning replied.

 

Calculating the time, Wen Xingchen said, “That works. I might also be away from school for the next few days.”

 

Lu Jingning was taken aback, “Where are you going?”

 

Wen Xingchen lowered his gaze slightly, “I’m not sure yet, maybe back home.”

 

“Alright then! See you in three days!” Lu Jingning smiled, looking at him.

 

“Sure, see you in three days,” Wen Xingchen replied, a faint smile appearing on his lips.

 

…

 

The college mech exchange event was scheduled to be held on Ladrian Star in the Seventh Galaxy. In the afternoon, all six members of the Mech Club gathered at the temporary campus entrance and headed to the main spaceport to board a long-distance light cruiser. By the time they arrived at the pre-arranged hotel, it was already night.

 

Lu Jingning and Yan Hebin were assigned to the same room. After resting for the night, they followed Bing Yunlin’s lead the next morning to the event venue.

 

Ladrian Star was a densely populated main planet, and Borla City, as the capital city of the planet, was thriving and bustling. Lu Jingning dozed off in the aircraft until he heard someone exclaiming in surprise, prompting him to lazily open his eyes.

 

His gaze fell through the transparent barrier, and a towering mech-shaped building entered his vision. The Empire had developed nine major galaxies, each with its own unique civilization. The Seventh Galaxy’s mech technology had matured the most, with most of the Empire’s military mechs being the work of the mech masters here. The highly renowned Mech Master Association was also located on Ladrian Star, a testament to the strength of mech civilization.

 

The college mech exchange event was being held at the iconic “Steel Body” building in Borla City.

 

Although Lu Jingning had visited various planets, it was his first time in Borla City. He couldn’t help but take an interest in the majestic and magnificent mech-shaped architecture before him.

 

This event gathered representatives from various major colleges, including the team from Heavy Cloud Defense University, where Lu Jingning went to. There was a girl from Heavy Cloud’s delegation who had exchanged a few words with him during the social gathering, and they continued chatting and laughing with each other.

 

When the girl mentioned that he was carried out by Wen Xingchen the other night, Lu Jingning couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed. He scratched his cheek and said, “Well… I wasn’t really drunk. Do you believe me?”

 

The girl found his slightly awkward appearance adorable and quickly reassured him, “I believe you, of course.”

 

Lu Jingning fell silent at her tone, clearly indicating that she didn’t believe him at all. It was like comforting a child.

 

An Huo, who was standing nearby, overheard their conversation and couldn’t help but laugh, covering his mouth. “What’s this? You guys had such an exciting entertainment program at your exchange match? The president didn’t tell us about it after coming back!”

 

Bing Yunlin chuckled without changing his expression. “It was just a social gathering, nothing to talk about.”

 

In the midst of this harmonious conversation, Yu Zeyang stood there absentmindedly, scanning the venue as if looking for something.

 

At that moment, a team of people entered through the main entrance, and when he looked up, his lips slightly tightened.

 

The others in the venue also noticed the team of people who seemed to be college students. However, from the moment they appeared, all the others stopped their conversations and turned their gazes in their direction.

 

The girl, who was chatting with Lu Jingning, exclaimed, “It’s the Thunder Research University!”

 

The others were also astonished, except for the few from the Imperial Navy, whose expressions were inscrutable.

 

The name “Thunder Research University” sounded somewhat familiar to Lu Jingning. He thought it should be a well-known institution. Just as he was about to ask Yan Hebin about it, he saw the team of people walking straight toward them after entering the venue.

 

The leader stopped not far from them and spoke in a flat tone, “I heard that your restriction was lifted early this year, but I thought it was just a rumor. I didn’t expect you to show up so eagerly right after the ban was lifted. If I were you, I wouldn’t have the nerve.”

 

Bing Yunlin smiled calmly, “Long time no see, Wen Han.”

 

Wen Han, the leader of the other team, was tall, but compared to most Alphas, he appeared slightly slender. Although he had a refined aura, it lacked the elegance and gentleness that Bing Yunlin had. Instead, he emanated a chilling fierceness due to his overly pale skin.

 

His sharp gaze swept over Bing Yunlin’s face, and then he looked at the stern expression on Yu Zeyang’s face. He smirked, seemingly half-smiling, half-sneering, “So, you couldn’t wait to show your face right after the ban was lifted? If I were you, I wouldn’t have such thick skin.”

 

Facing such an open provocation, according to Yue Yang’s understanding of Yu Zeyang, he should have exploded on the spot. However, unexpectedly, he just pursed his lips and remained silent, an unprecedented display of restraint.

 

Nevertheless, Wen Han seemed to have anticipated his response and didn’t pay it much attention. His gaze casually swept over the members of the Imperial Navy delegation. It halted slightly when he saw Lu Jingning and Yan Hebin, then he uttered, “Omegas?”

 

Bing Yunlin intercepted him discreetly as he attempted to approach them and said, “Our club members don’t need President Wen’s concern.”

 

“Indeed, it’s not my place to interfere,” Wen Han raised his gaze, glancing at Lu Jingning and the others, and then a trace of coldness emerged in his smile. “However, I think there are some things these two junior brothers should know.”

 

Apart from Lu Jingning and Yan Hebin, the other visitors were all students above their sophomore year. The atmosphere suddenly turned eerie.

 

Sensing the unusual situation, the people from Heavy Cloud Defense University found a pretext and tactfully left.

 

Lu Jingning could feel the restrained and guarded emotions from everyone, even from An Huo, who usually had a good temper. They all directed their gazes at the person before them.

 

Yu Zeyang clenched his teeth and said, “Wen Han, you have a grudge against me!”

 

“Oh? Are you afraid of people finding out?” Wen Han sneered, then coldly retorted, “Are you afraid to face the consequences of your own mistakes? Why was the Imperial Navy University’s mecha club banned for two years? Your club members should know the reason, shouldn’t they?”

 

Yu Zeyang’s back stiffened slightly.

 

Wen Han’s tone turned slightly heavy. “Throughout the century since the establishment of the Mecha Pilots Association, it’s the first time they have issued such a severe ban on a university’s mecha club. In some way, you could say that you’ve created history, couldn’t you?”

 

Bing Yunlin frowned, “Wen Han, that’s enough.”

 

Wen Han coldly laughed, “Enough? How could it be enough? Concealing the truth like this, are you planning to let the same tragedy happen again?”

 

Yu Zeyang tightened his fists, and the excessive force almost embedded his fingers into his palms.

 

Lu Jingning could tell that Yu Zeyang was almost driven crazy by the relentless pressure from Wen Han.

 

Though he wasn’t entirely satisfied with this vice president, he couldn’t let his own people be bullied in front of outsiders.

 

Moreover, this outsider was using him as an excuse for their actions, which made him unhappy.

 

So, he lazily raised his eyelids and suddenly asked without warning, “President Wen Han, do you live by the seaside?”

 

Wen Han was taken aback by the digression, “What?”

 

Lu Jingning continued nonchalantly, “Otherwise, how could you have such a broad perspective?”

 

Wen Han: “…”

 

Lu Jingning continued, “You come here for an exchange competition, so manage your own team. What right do you have to interfere in the affairs of our Imperial Navy University? Is our president dead or something?”

 

Bing Yunlin shot him a glance.

 

Lu Jingning pretended not to notice and went on, “You yourself said that our club has been unbanned. If it’s unbanned, then participating in the exchange competition is legitimate. If you’re dissatisfied, why not directly complain to the Mecha Pilots Association? As for the previous ban, whether it lasts for years or is lifted, what’s it to you? You love to talk so much, do your family members know?”

 

Wen Han, born into a scholarly family, was being treated this rudely for the first time. He was so angry that he almost fainted on the spot, but he managed to retain his composure after a while and said with a grim expression, “Do you know that I’m doing this for your own good?”

 

Lu Jingning smiled faintly, “Thank you for your concern. My whole family thanks you.”

 

Wen Han struggled to maintain his last shred of reason, his face turning gloomy as he spoke, “Do you know what kind of person you are defending? Two years ago, a significant accident resulted in the death of an Omega student from your Imperial Navy University! All of this could have been avoided, but the vice president you support, for the sake of some trivial honor, was so greedy and heartless that he didn’t try to stop it!”

 

Bing Yunlin intervened, “Wen Han, there’s no need to involve the freshmen in our grievances.”

 

“Is there really no need? Concealing the truth and not letting them know, what is your purpose?” Wen Han’s voice grew heavy. “Everyone has the right to know, they should be aware that the so-called vice president is a person who can easily sacrifice others for his own glory!”

 

Yu Zeyang’s eyes dimmed distinctly, facing such accusations, but he did not refute a word.

 

Lu Jingning exchanged a glance with Yan Hebin.

 

Under the deluge of information, they seemed to have suddenly understood something.

 

However, there was no time to delve deeper into it at this moment. Seeing that Wen Han seemed relentless in pushing the members of the mecha club into an abyss, Lu Jingning cleared his throat slowly, appearing to smile but not really, and asked, “So, what’s the point of all this?”

 

Wen Han seemed somewhat unresponsive, “What do you mean, ‘what’s the point of all this’?”

 

“Exactly, what’s the point?” Lu Jingning’s tone was light. “I can only say that you truly don’t understand soldiers. If we receive orders from our superiors, we will always obey unconditionally. Do you think sacrificing oneself for honor is worthless? As you said, this kind of death comes with absolute glory. Soldiers never hesitate to strive for honor! If we die in the process, well, it means our strength was inadequate. On the other hand, you, with such a self-righteous attitude, pressing on step by step, it’s quite embarrassing, you know?”

 

Seeing that the other party still seemed puzzled, Lu Jingning sighed slightly, feeling tired, and summarized, “In short, I don’t care about past right and wrong, and likewise, it’s none of your damn business whether I’m willing to give my life for the mecha club or not!”
