After Kissing the Esports God, He Keeps Flirting With Me Chapter 64

【64】 Your Knight has come to pick you up

After a brief moment of weighing his options, Wen Ran decided to change by himself.

He took the jacket Jiang Yan handed over and turned into the stall.

Otherwise, if he let this big bad wolf help him, it probably wouldn’t be as simple as just taking off and changing clothes.

Wen Ran wasn’t wearing anything underneath. He put Jiang Yan’s jacket on his body and zipped it up.

Because it had just been taken off, it still carried Jiang Yan’s body heat, making it feel as if his entire person was being embraced in Jiang Yan’s arms.

This seemed to be the first time he had worn his boyfriend’s clothes outside of their home.

Jiang Yan’s uniform was his old one. The back was printed with his ID, and on the left cuff, there was a small “WK” embroidered in gold thread. Wen Ran reached out and touched it. How much he had once looked forward to wearing such a team uniform, fighting side by side with his idol. Now, with a difference of one word, his idol had become his partner.

He was probably the most successful fan in the esports circle.

Thinking of the once unattainable esports god Wind coaxing him with soft words, while he wore the man’s team uniform against his skin, Wen Ran’s face burned red with shame.

As soon as he opened the stall door, he saw Jiang Yan waiting comfortably with his arms crossed, looking at him. He very skillfully took the dirty clothes from Wen Ran’s hands.

He reached out and pinched the back of Wen Ran’s neck. “Tsk, you’ve even worn Ge’s underwear before. What are you being shy about over a jacket now?”

Wen Ran: “……”

If it weren’t… if it weren’t for Jiang Yan bullying him so vigorously before, causing his own to be soaked through and unwearable, why would he have worn his!

Thinking of those things that weren’t quite suitable for children, Wen Ran instantly turned even redder.

Flying into a rage out of humiliation, he snatched back his clothes and bolted back to the private room.

The others didn’t find it strange to see him return wearing Wind’s clothes. What was wrong with a grown man wearing another man’s clothes? Arrow Cloud even asked why he hadn’t asked him for one.

This atmosphere actually made Wen Ran sigh in relief.

However, the look in Orange’s eyes when he looked at him seemed to hold some unclear emotions.

After the meal, most chose to return to the base. Orange had always been bold; he leaned in towards Jiang Yan. “Senior, shall we go back together?”

“I still have something to do,” Jiang Yan rejected him directly without thinking. “You go back first.”

He glanced in Wen Ran’s direction. The little bastard was still slowly fiddling with the hem of his clothes, which was already perfectly straight.

This was the little cat waiting for him.

“Oh.” Although Orange was a bit disappointed, he didn’t say much more and left alone.

Making sure the other teammates had gone, Jiang Yan walked over to Wen Ran. “Ran Ran, shall we go too?”

“So obedient, waiting here for Ge.”

“Who’s waiting for you!” Wen Ran bristled immediately, shoving his hands into his pockets to cover up his intent, his eyes darting around, afraid to look at Jiang Yan. “I just hadn’t fixed my clothes properly, otherwise I would have left long ago!”

Jiang Yan didn’t expose him. Who asked the little kitten to have such thin skin? If he teased him any further, he’d get scratched.

“Mm-hmm,” Jiang Yan wrapped his arm around Wen Ran’s shoulders. “Then, friend Wen Ran, may I walk with you?”

The tips of Wen Ran’s ears turned red, but he didn’t struggle out of Jiang Yan’s embrace, giving a soft “En.”

Night had completely fallen now. At first, the two walked side by side, but as they walked, Jiang Yan drifted closer to Wen Ran.

His fingers lightly brushed against the back of Wen Ran’s hand.

Wen Ran’s heartbeat involuntarily accelerated. He knew what Jiang Yan wanted to do.

But after testing the waters for a full five minutes, Jiang Yan only lightly touched him, making the back of Wen Ran’s hand itch.

Wasn’t it just holding hands? Since when did Jiang Yan become so coy!

Wen Ran steadied himself. When Jiang Yan touched the back of his hand again, he reached out and grabbed his fingers.

He pursed his lips and coughed, pretending it was casual. “It’s so dark, I’m afraid of losing you.”

“I’d have to go through the trouble of finding you.”

Jiang Yan had originally intended to just tease Wen Ran, watching the little bastard’s face slowly turn red, but he hadn’t expected this pleasant surprise.

He gently hooked his finger. “Then Ge has to hold on tight to our Ran Ran.”

Wen Ran felt a bit awkward from the flirting and stiffly changed the subject. “Where exactly are you taking me?”

Jiang Yan blinked. “Didn’t I say? There’s a gift for you.”

They walked for about nine hundred meters. Jiang Yan led him into a very retro alleyway.

Inside, there was a homestay.

It was a small two-story building with a bamboo and wood structure, looking quite antique.

Jiang Yan led him to the second floor, took out a key, and opened the room door.

Wen Ran instantly had some inappropriate thoughts. Was Jiang Yan thinking about that kind of thing right after meeting him?

And finding a place like this… he said he wanted to give him a gift. Could the gift be himself?

Wen Ran’s brain conjured up scenes of Jiang Yan roguishly pressing him against the door panel to kiss him, saying things like “Ran Ran, Ge is giving himself to you, do you like it?” Goosebumps instantly rose all over his body.

Men were indeed animals thinking with their lower halves. And Jiang Yan wasn’t very serious to begin with—it was even more suspicious!

Wen Ran felt uncomfortable due to his own speculations. He secretly decided in his heart that if Jiang Yan just wanted to find him to vent later, he would snap him in half!

At worst, he would be the top (Gong) from now on.

Wen Ran was letting his imagination run wild when Jiang Yan suddenly grabbed his wrist, pulling him back to reality. “Ran Ran, come in.”

Wen Ran had originally been aiming for Jiang Yan’s crotch, but as soon as he entered, he was dumbfounded.

Although the lights weren’t on, the room wasn’t dark because it was filled with stars.

It was as if the Milky Way was pouring down, scattering bits of itself into the mortal world, shining with diamond-like brilliance and dazzling silver light.

The entire room was enveloped by the starry sky, and the floor was covered in roses, with fluffy white clouds paving a path.

Wen Ran couldn’t help but reach out to touch it. It was simply too beautiful. He had only seen scenes like this in fairy tales.

Jiang Yan spoke, his voice full of tenderness. “Ran Bao, walk over there.”

Wen Ran took off his shoes and stepped on the clouds. The steps were perfectly spaced. The clouds were made of cotton gauze, very soft and incredibly comfortable to step on. Wen Ran walked along the path paved with clouds. When he reached the last cloud, it suddenly lit up with a pale yellow light beneath his feet.

Immediately after, Wen Ran saw a crescent moon shape light up in the rose bushes in front of him, slowly beginning to rise.

It emitted the same gentle, pale yellow light, complementing the surrounding starry sky, making Wen Ran feel for a moment that he had truly stepped into the galaxy.

He reached out to touch the moon, only to discover a small button on its side. After pressing it, a delicate box was revealed inside.

Wen Ran took it out in confusion. Inside was a pair of crown-shaped cufflinks.

The body of the crown was gold, featuring openwork details and set with red rubies. They looked exquisite and noble.

Jiang Yan had walked up behind Wen Ran at some point. He gently hugged him, arms wrapping around Wen Ran’s waist, resting his chin on his shoulder, pressing against him. “Ran Bao, do you like it?”

To say he didn’t like it would definitely be a lie.

But Wen Ran didn’t quite understand. “Why are you giving me this?”

He didn’t even wear dress shirts, and this pair of cufflinks looked incredibly expensive at first glance.

Putting them on him was simply a waste.

“You mean the little crowns?” Jiang Yan smiled, his tone gaining a few degrees of seriousness. “Because you are my Little Prince.”

“Princes must wear crowns, of course.”

Little Prince…

Wen Ran’s body stiffened. Did a person like him deserve to be called a prince?

He was clearly stuck in the mud from head to toe.

Growing up, the name he heard most often was “Dog Thing.” After entering society, he was called “Little Hooligan.” A noble title like Little Prince… he was simply disgracing it.

Wen Ran clenched his fists, struggling out of Jiang Yan’s embrace. He shoved the cufflinks back into Jiang Yan’s chest like they were a hot potato. “Stop joking around.”

“Ran Ran, I know what you’re thinking.” Jiang Yan looked at him deeply, then squatted down, kneeling on one knee on the ground. “There’s no need to be sad or care about a few words from certain people. You don’t owe them anything.”

“In my heart, my family’s Ran Bao is the best Little Prince, deserving of the best things in the world.”

Jiang Yan held his hand, lowering his eyes gently. Within the sky full of stars, he kissed Wen Ran’s fingertips. “You just suffered a little bit of hardship. Now, your Knight has come to pick you home.”

Wen Ran’s nose stung. Jiang Yan seemed to have always known what his hang-ups were, encouraging him time and time again.

He had been in this world for so many years, and only Jiang Yan understood him.

Understood his sensitive mind, understood that he didn’t mean what he said, understood his sadness and inferiority. He tolerated his mischief, indulged his little temper tantrums, healed his scars, remembered every word he said, and unconditionally pampered and loved everything about him.

He used to think Wind and Jiang Yan were different, but looking at it now, how were they different? They were clearly the same kind of gentle.

The tears in Wen Ran’s eyes couldn’t help but fall, patta patta, and he even let out a few soft whimpers.

He squatted down too and threw himself at Jiang Yan, hugging his neck.

Jiang Yan was still kneeling on one knee. With Wen Ran’s impact, the two of them fell to the ground instantly, crushing a patch of roses nearby.

Fortunately, they had been processed and had no thorns, otherwise Jiang Yan felt he might have turned into a sieve.

The person on top of him fell into his arms, his body still twitching slightly from sobbing. Jiang Yan placed his well-defined hand on the back of his head, stroking gently.

“Tsk, why are you crying?”

“You’re the one crying!” Wen Ran also felt he was going crazy. The more he was indulged, the more he wanted to fuss. He reached out and punched Jiang Yan on the shoulder. “Jiang Yan, you are not allowed to not want me in the future.”

Jiang Yan laughed helplessly. “Who was the one who didn’t want who?”

Little bastard, running away unilaterally and now learning to make counter-accusations.

Then he heard Wen Ran let out a milky, soft gasp: “Woo!”

Wen Ran: “……”

He had intended to say “I don’t care” (Wo bu guan), but the word “I” (Wo) hadn’t even finished when a hiccup turned it into “Woo,” sounding as if it had been dipped in cotton candy. It sounded exactly like he was acting cute and whining to Jiang Yan.

He wanted to dig a hole and bury himself.

Wen Ran could only bury his head into the crook of Jiang Yan’s arm and play dead. “That wasn’t me!”

Jiang Yan: “……”

He widened his eyes in disbelief. Was Ran Ran… acting cute for him just now?

Why was it so pleasant to hear? So sweet?

He wished he could just block Wen Ran’s mouth so he could only make those whimpering sounds.

Jiang Yan’s heart was teased into softness by Wen Ran. He reached out and rubbed the other’s head.

“The Knight will never betray the Prince. Even if his blood runs dry and his breathing stops.”

“So, I will always love you too,” Jiang Yan kissed the top of his head. “Until the end of my life.”
