Chapter 6: The Incompetent and Malicious Ex-Boyfriend (6)
Shen Ci couldn’t help but look at Ye Xi’s fair shoulder. What a slip of a shoulder. Then he quickly withdrew his gaze.
“Ye Xi, I’m a bit tired today. I’m not in the mood to play with you. Be a good boy and go to sleep.” He walked to the side where he usually slept.
Ye Xi’s body stiffened, and a flash of disappointment crossed his eyes.
Not playing? He hadn’t played with A-Ci for several days…
Shen Ci moved very quickly. Lying down, pulling up the covers, and closing his eyes was practically one fluid motion, for fear that if he were a second late, Ye Xi would pester him.
Ye Xi’s gaze lingered greedily on Shen Ci’s face. He had known since the first time that Shen Ci was incompetent, but what did that matter? As long as he was “capable,” it was fine.
He actually had enough money to pay Shen Ci back that hundred thousand yuan. He had originally planned to end this unequal relationship after paying him back. But—he was reluctant now.
He was Shen Ci’s boyfriend. As soon as that identity surfaced in his mind, he was overcome with excitement. If Shen Ci liked playing with a bit of “kink,” he would play along. Ultimately, he would ** him sooner or later.
———
After turning off the light, Ye Xi lay beside Shen Ci, completely wide awake. his mind was full of some rather unsavory thoughts. Shen Ci didn’t know what he was thinking. In his worldview, Ye Xi was a “0” [bottom] and posed no threat to him, so he wasn’t on guard.
Combined with the fatigue from unloading a truck of goods in the afternoon and the large amount of alcohol he had drunk in the evening, sleepiness surged uncontrollably as soon as his head hit the pillow. Before long, he fell into a deep sleep.
Sensing the even breathing beside him, Ye Xi turned his head. In the dark night, his eyes stared straight at Shen Ci. After several seconds, he reached out his hand, slowly and tentatively touching Shen Ci’s arm under the air-conditioning quilt.
The warm sensation from his fingertips made him a bit infatuated. The corners of his mouth couldn’t help but curl slightly, his expression somewhat libertine. It would be great if he could sleep in the same bed as A-Ci every day. Even without ** it was fine.
…
Shen Ci was stunned for a moment when he opened his eyes the next day. He felt like there was someone in his arms. Reflexively, he caressed that slender waist.
The fuzzy head in his arms seemed comfortable from the touch, rubbing against his chest as a very light gasp unconsciously escaped his lips…
Shen Ci’s entire body went stiff as if struck by lightning. His body was so hot—
Coming to his senses, Shen Ci violently pushed Ye Xi away. Caught off guard, Ye Xi rolled directly off the bed. The fall immediately woke him from his sleep. Fortunately, there was a cashmere rug by the bed, so it didn’t hurt much.
He sat up straight, completely dazed. The belt of his bathrobe had come undone at some point, and his youthful, beautiful body was fully exposed to Shen Ci’s eyes.
Shen Ci: “…”
“A-Ci, why did you push me?” Ye Xi’s voice still carried a hint of sleepiness, slightly low and raspy.
Only then did Shen Ci realize that he was the one who had crossed the line. Which meant… he was the shameless one who had fallen asleep holding Ye Xi?
Wasn’t this… embarrassing?
The quilt had been pulled off the bed by Ye Xi, and his own awkwardness was exposed to the air. Shen Ci had no time for excuses and lunged out of bed. “My hand slipped.”
As he spoke, he walked quickly toward the bathroom.
“Bang—” The door was slammed shut.
Ye Xi rose unhurriedly from the floor. After placing the quilt back on the bed, a successful smile curled his lips. After casting a downward glance, Ye Xi thought slowly: What a beautiful morning.
———
When Ye Xi went out, Ming Yanzhou was sitting on the sofa in the living room. Hearing the bedroom door open, he reflexively turned his head and met Ye Xi’s eyes.
This was their first “official meeting.” Ye Xi’s gaze landed on Ming Yanzhou’s face. It was a very handsome face, very young, and looking full of vitality. It made him feel an inexplicable sense of threat.
Shen Ci had forced him to be together back then because of his face. If there was a better choice, would he leave him without hesitation for someone else? And it had been so long, yet his relationship with him hadn’t broken through the final layer.
Even when they first got together, Shen Ci had pressed him onto the bed to kiss him, but he had detested Shen Ci then. So much so that after the kiss, he had gone to the toilet with an expressionless face to vomit for a long time.
Even later when he found out Shen Ci was incompetent, he had only been secretly relieved. After all, he wasn’t a “bottom”; if he were really forced to have sex with Shen Ci and be pressed down, he might not have been able to stop himself from kicking Shen Ci off the bed.
But now… he had already begun to miss it. When would Shen Ci press him onto the bed to kiss him again?
———
While Ye Xi sized up Ming Yanzhou, Ming Yanzhou was also secretly sizing him up. At the first sight of Ye Xi, Ming Yanzhou’s heart sank. Ye Xi was too well-formed.
An exquisitely beautiful appearance, yet his brow carried a hint of coldness. The two temperaments blended together in a way that didn’t conflict, but rather gave one an inexplicable desire to conquer him.
With a boyfriend like this, could he really dig this “wall”? Ming Yanzhou began to question his “charm” for the first time.
Finally, Ye Xi snapped back first. He stepped forward with the air of a “legal wife,” nodding politely to Ming Yanzhou. “You’re awake? Do you need some water?” He finished and gave a soft laugh. “A-Ci is washing up; he should be out soon.”
The words declaring ownership reached Ming Yanzhou’s ears, causing his eyes to darken. Although he didn’t even have the right to be jealous, it didn’t stop him from feeling that Ye Xi was a huge eyesore.
Ming Yanzhou stood up and replied politely, “Thank you. Is there a spare towel in the house? I’d like to take a shower…”
He hadn’t really slept much last night. As soon as he closed his eyes, he imagined the person he liked in the next room doing this and that with someone else. How could he sleep?
It wasn’t until the end that he had dozed off for a bit. When he woke up, it was just after six. He didn’t go back to sleep, choosing instead to sit on the sofa and wait for the two of them to get up. He wanted to see what kind of “heavenly being” could be Shen Ci’s boyfriend.
Now seeing Ye Xi… alright, he really was a f*cking heavenly being. Damn it!
But he wouldn’t give up. Even if he couldn’t dig the wall, he would join them at worst. As long as he could be with Shen Ci, he’d accept being the “second wife.”
Ye Xi looked at Ming Yanzhou’s wrinkled clothes and thought of his clean and fragrant bed being slept in by this kid; a flash of disgust crossed his eyes, but it didn’t show on his face.
“There are new towels. Wait a moment; I’ll get one for you.” Ye Xi went into his room.
Seeing the quilt on the bed folded neatly, the disgust in his heart felt a bit better. He took a new towel out of the closet and handed it to Ming Yanzhou.
“The heater is hot water to the left and cold to the right. Shampoo and body wash are on the shelf; you’ll see them as soon as you go in. The hair dryer is in the left cabinet of the vanity, and there are disposable toothbrushes on the right…”
After Ming Yanzhou heard the clear instructions, he thanked him. “Alright. Thanks, Brother.”
Ye Xi’s gaze rested on Ming Yanzhou’s face. “My name is Ye Xi.”
Ming Yanzhou froze for a second. “Brother Ye, my name is Ming Yanzhou.”
Ye Xi: “…”
“You can just call me Ye Xi.”
Ye Xi felt that Ming Yanzhou’s “Brother Ye” made him sound old, giving him an inexplicable age crisis. He was only 23, not many years older than Ming Yanzhou.
Ming Yanzhou: “…”
If it weren’t for infiltrating the enemy from within, someone like Ye Xi wouldn’t be qualified to have him call him “Brother.” To be precise, in the circle of second-generation rich kids, people only called him “Brother”; no one was worthy of him calling them that.
