Chapter 67: Brother, I Want To…
“Eh, buddy, your constipation sounds a bit serious.”
The man’s voice sounded very young. After speaking and receiving no response for a long time, he figured chatting at a time like this wasn’t good.
Feeling awkward, he quickly fixed his pants and ran out of the restroom without stopping.
Chen Jiamu, burning with desire, felt the voice was somewhat familiar, but he was in no mood to ponder it now.
Li Xi’s hands kept igniting fires on his body; his reason had long since retreated from the edge.
But Li Xi refused to play by the rules. Just as Jiamu was about to climb the peak, Li Xi pulled back.
He stared down at him from above, a smile hanging on his lips. But to Chen Jiamu, that smile right now was like a demon’s, making his hair stand on end.
“Li Xi…”
Chen Jiamu’s voice carried a trembling sob. Even so, Li Xi calmly shook his head. “I’ll give you another chance. What do you call me?”
Chen Jiamu bit his lip lightly, his eyes filled with hesitation and struggle. “Hu…”
The rest of the word “Husband” simply couldn’t come out. But right now, he was like fish meat on a roasting rack, unable to control himself…
“Hu… Husband…”
Two simple words came out of Chen Jiamu’s mouth like hot taro, held back for a long time before being spoken with a red face.
“Ah, that’s correct.”
“Brother, in the future when no one is around, you must call me this.”
“That way, you are my most beloved Brother.”
Li Xi’s words were like a magic spell, playing on a continuous loop in Chen Jiamu’s mind.
Ten minutes later, Chen Jiamu looked up at the ceiling of the restroom, his brain completely blank…
Nibbling gently on his ear, Li Xi patiently cleaned Chen Jiamu up. After helping him get tidy, he fixed his trousers and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a tissue.
Chen Jiamu had recovered by now, leaning half against him, letting Li Xi arrange him however he pleased.
When the two came out of the restroom, Chen Jiamu’s phone had already been bombarded.
Checking it, he saw Chen Cheng had called him over ten times. Chen Jiamu called back and heard Chen Cheng asking what he was doing.
“I met a friend and chatted with him for a while.”
Chen Cheng had the call on speaker, so naturally, An Yiyi, who was with her, heard it too. Rolling her eyes, she spoke up, “We are by the riverbank.”
“Okay, I’ll find you in a bit.”
Hearing An Yiyi’s voice, Li Xi raised his handsome brows, the corners of his mouth lifting into an intriguing smile.
Hanging up, Chen Jiamu looked up at Li Xi and probed, “You’re not angry anymore, right?”
“After all, she is with my sister right now.”
Li Xi glanced at him sideways, then pulled him toward the crowd. “We’ll settle accounts after the lantern festival ends.”
“By the way, how did you find me?”
“Did you come alone or with someone?” Chen Jiamu was curious; his demeanor this afternoon had been flawless. How did Li Xi discover him?
As they walked side by side, Li Xi’s voice was neither loud nor soft. “I came with Auntie Song.”
“She should be with Uncle Murong right now, not worrying about me.” Hearing an unfamiliar name, Chen Jiamu’s eyes instantly lit up. He leaned in gossipy and asked, “This Uncle Murong you mentioned, is he Auntie Song’s boyfriend?”
Chen Jiamu hadn’t seen Song Jin for four years; his impression of her remained stuck in the past.
“Mhm.”
Although Song Jin hadn’t said it outright, Li Xi wasn’t a fool. During the four years abroad, that man named Murong Che had helped with many things.
After returning to the country, he had followed.
“That’s good. At least there’s someone to accompany her.”
“Then are you going to find her now?”
Chen Jiamu pinched his fingers, feeling a bit reluctant. Everyone at the lantern festival was in pairs. Chen Jiamu wanted to openly watch the lanterns with Li Xi too.
“No.”
“I want to watch the lanterns with you.”
This sentence hit Chen Jiamu straight in the heart. Happily, he took Li Xi’s hand, merging with the crowd onto the main street of the festival.
There were countless couples here, and of course, no one knew them, so Chen Jiamu didn’t have to worry about judgmental gazes.
But he still restrained himself from being too intimate with Li Xi, after all, Song Jin and Chen Cheng were also here.
Meanwhile, by the riverbank, the two women waited for a long time without seeing a sign of Chen Jiamu.
Chen Cheng frowned. Why hasn’t this guy come yet? Just as she wanted to pick up her phone to call him again, her hand was pressed down. She looked sideways to see An Yiyi staring at her gently. “Since his friend is here, let him spend more time with his friend.”
“It’s enough for me to accompany Sister.”
Under the warm red lights, the blush on An Yiyi’s face couldn’t be seen, but the upturned corners of her mouth betrayed her mood.
She was very happy.
Happy?
Doesn’t she like Chen Jiamu? Chen Jiamu isn’t here, yet she’s actually happy?
Is she afraid I’ll have a bad impression of her, so she’s forcing a smile?
Chen Cheng held doubts in her heart, assuming An Yiyi was enduring it. A trace of pity for her rose inside.
Falling for anyone else would be fine, why did she have to want Chen Jiamu?
“What is Sister thinking about?”
“Do you not like me accompanying you?”
Since Chen Cheng remained silent, An Yiyi immediately grabbed her hand nervously, a flash of sadness in her eyes.
“No.”
Chen Cheng shook her head and put away her phone. “Since he’s not coming yet, let’s just stroll by ourselves.”
Saying that, she walked forward. Seeing that she wasn’t rejected, An Yiyi happily followed.
“Sister, wait for me.”
Chen Cheng slowed her pace so An Yiyi could catch up. Walking side by side, An Yiyi pursed her lips and reached out to link arms with Chen Cheng.
Intimately nestling against her… if Chen Cheng could hear the sound of her heartbeat right now, it would be deafening…
“Sister, do you hate me?”
An Yiyi asked softly. Hearing this, Chen Cheng turned to look at her strangely. “Why would you say that?”
“Otherwise, why wouldn’t you accept my friend request?”
An Yiyi took out her phone and showed the blank page to her. Only then did Chen Cheng remember she seemed to have forgotten something.
So it was her friend request.
“Sorry, I got busy and forgot. I’ll approve it right now.”
Saying that, she opened her phone and started searching…
