After the Villain Awakened, He Was Carried Home by the Big Boss and Kissed Until He Cried Chapter 115

Chapter 115: It’s Really Hard Not to Like Him

Chi Yuheng paused for a moment. Then, his fingers curled slightly as he raised his hand to rap Ye Ran on the head. “You said your professors explain things clearly. So it all went in one ear and out the other? Not a single bit entered your brain?”

His voice was deep. “You don’t pay attention in class all day. What are you thinking about?”

“You’ve been playing quite a bit lately, haven’t you?”

Ye Ran listened with his head bowed. Now was the lecture time of his “Daddy-type” boyfriend.

In the past, when Chi Yuheng scolded him, he could just let it go in one ear and out the other; whether he listened or not didn’t matter.

Not anymore.

Chi Yuheng used to manage him like a younger brother, but now that he had a new identity, he had an added responsibility as a Husband. He was even more determined to trim the uneven leaves of his wife, whose playfulness had reached the heavens.

It could be seen just from their positioning.

Before, Ye Ran stood while Chi Yuheng sat.

Now, he was sitting obediently on Chi Yuheng’s lap, his back pressed against the man’s warm chest, not even daring to move an inch.

Before, Chi Yuheng’s education might have meant two swats on the butt.

Now, it was a two-pronged approach.

The “Peach” would be handled first, then he’d be “stir-fried” back in the room.

Which decent person could survive such a tossing?

As someone who had been through it, Ye Ran indicated that he couldn’t take it.

So, at this time, Ye Ran didn’t dare to bristle. He was even quieter than usual.

Because it was getting late, Chi Yuheng didn’t continue speaking. Even if he were to teach him, it wouldn’t be now.

What he could do today was remind him—Ye Ran had been having too much fun lately, and he had to make him rein it in.

Chi Yuheng’s fingertips lingered at Ye Ran’s waist. “Ye Ran, have I been pampering you too much lately?”

Ye Ran wanted to say no, but under Chi Yuheng’s gaze, the words could only turn into a sincere blink of his eyes.

What was the problem with a man pampering his own wife?

The one who should be reflecting was Chi Yuheng.

So how could Ye Ran be at fault?

Ye Ran sat obediently, playing the role of an innocent leaf.

If Ye Ran had been defiant and fought back, Chi Yuheng could have found more reasons to keep a stern face.

Ye Ran being so well-behaved actually left Chi Yuheng with no move to make.

He felt a sense of powerlessness—reluctant to strike him, but unable to continue speaking.

Chi Yuheng had no choice but to raise his hand and pinch the space between his brows, his tone becoming serious. “Student Ye Ran, I’m warning you: if you fail your finals, watch out for your ‘blossoming’ butt.”

Chi Yuheng wasn’t joking.

Ye Ran’s backside tightened. He thought to himself—he usually cramped for exams at the last minute. Should he start cramping two months earlier this time?

…

The next day, Ye Ran was going back to the Chi family old residence to see the Old Master.

In the original plot, Ye Ran almost always went back to the Ye family to find trouble for Qiao Yubai. Now, he did the complete opposite, spending his time on his true family.

He opened his eyes groggy in the morning, finding the spot beside him empty.

Chi Yuheng was washing up when Ye Ran suddenly poked his head in through the doorframe.

Chi Yuheng looked back with his toothbrush in hand. Ye Ran squinted, looking like he hadn’t fully woken up. He rubbed his messy, bird-nest hair and asked, “Chi Yuheng, what time is it?”

Chi Yuheng: “…”

So you can run over here to ask me, but you can’t just glance at your phone on the bed?

Chi Yuheng’s voice was clear. “It’s just seven. Go back and sleep more if you’re tired.”

Ye Ran had misty eyes, looking like a sloth that hadn’t woken up. He shook his head. “I’m not sleeping. I’m hungry. I want to finish washing up and go downstairs for breakfast.”

Chi Yuheng consciously stepped to the side, making room for Ye Ran.

Then he got out a cup for Ye Ran and squeezed toothpaste onto his toothbrush.

In the next minute, the two stood side-by-side, their brushing motions almost identical.

They looked at each other in the mirror over the sink.

Suddenly, while brushing his teeth, Ye Ran blurted out, “Chi Yuheng, your toothbrush is so ugly.”

Chi Yuheng: “…”

Yes, he had changed his toothbrush.

Before, it was just a plain, simple black toothbrush. Now, his toothbrush was still black, but it had a little monster on it.

It happened to pair with Ye Ran’s Ultraman toothbrush—Ultraman fighting the little monster.

Chi Yuheng was the one being fought.

Chi Yuheng paused for a moment, then continued brushing. “I think it looks quite nice.”

Ye Ran narrowed his eyes. “Your aesthetics aren’t good. Your vision is bad…”

As he spoke, he felt something was wrong. Saying Chi Yuheng’s vision was bad was like talking about himself.

After all, if Chi Yuheng’s vision was bad, how could he have taken a liking to him?

Halfway through, he changed his tune. “Your vision for picking toothbrushes is bad.”

Chi Yuheng didn’t argue. He merely gave an “oh.” “Didn’t you pick it out for me?”

Ye Ran: “???”

Ye Ran: “!!!”

Ye Ran: “…”

The man finally remembered—he was the one who picked the toothbrush. When he was pursuing Chi Yuheng, he had secretly had Xin Yu move his things to Chi Yuheng’s room, and had conveniently changed all of Chi Yuheng’s toiletries to match his as a pair.

At that time, they hadn’t even started dating yet. Chi Yuheng had naturally noticed these small details, but he hadn’t said anything and had just used them.

Ye Ran had completely forgotten about it and had thought Chi Yuheng’s taste had declined.

However, if he looked back on this, Chi Yuheng had silently started using couple-items with Ye Ran before they had even confessed to each other. Didn’t that mean he had agreed from the start?

Thinking of this, several questions suddenly popped into Ye Ran’s head.

The curiosity in his heart popped like bubbles. Ye Ran couldn’t help but reach out and tug at Chi Yuheng’s collar, his tone full of curiosity. “Chi Yuheng, I have to ask you something!”

Chi Yuheng had just finished washing his face. Being tugged like this, he followed the motion and looked up. “What is it?”

Ye Ran leaned in closer. “Chi Yuheng, when did you start liking me?”

Chi Yuheng gave him a deep look. “When you were still a baby.”

Ye Ran: “What the hell kind of baby!”

Still joking with me at a time like this.

Ye Ran was just about to complain when he suddenly realized something.

He saw the clear seriousness in Chi Yuheng’s eyes, without a trace of playful mockery.

Chi Yuheng had just finished washing his face, and there was still moisture on it. The hair on his forehead was damp and stuck softly to his brow. He looked less cold than usual and more gentle.

He leaned down slightly to bring their distance closer, his voice carrying the moistness of the water. He repeated, “It really was when you were a baby.”

“A seventy-something-month-old baby, appearing before me in a little dress.”

“Seeing you swaying around in front of me with that overly cute face, it was really hard not to like you.”

Chi Yuheng chuckled. Who wouldn’t like such a cute little thing?

Not liking him would have been the hard part.

Ye Ran didn’t quite believe it. “Don’t talk nonsense. I was five, you were only eleven. You knew what ‘liking’ was back then?”

“I indeed didn’t know what liking was back then,” Chi Yuheng said. “I only knew that my heart would ache when I saw you cry, and I wanted to pinch your cheeks when I saw you smile. I wanted to give all the good things to you.”
