ă47ă Who is Kissing Who Exactly?
The smile on the face of the boy who was just grinning instantly froze upon hearing Jiang Yan say that.
He was a profligate second-generation rich kid who usually neglected exercise; there was no way he could beat Jiang Yan, who was taller than him. Moreover, the way Jiang Yan looked now didn’t seem like he was joking at all. Besides, even if he could win, he wouldn’t dare to strike Jiang Yan. Jiang Yanâs background was mysterious, but it was said to be very significantâhis family even had a private jet. He was a “crown prince” whom ordinary wealthy people like them couldn’t afford to provoke.
He actually didn’t like Jiang Yan much, thinking the man was very pretentious. These second-generation rich kids had their own circles and had previously wanted to pull Jiang Yan in. But Jiang Yan ignored them entirely. Even when he introduced beautiful girls to Jiang Yan, the man could say “I don’t like girls” without changing his expression.
He remembered wanting to use “human relations and worldly wisdom” to kidnap Jiang Yan, saying to him with a grin:
“Brother Yan, are you not giving me face?”
Ordinary people wouldn’t push it away too much at that point, but what did Jiang Yan do?
He actually said directly: “So what if I’m not?”
Initially, he thought Jiang Yan was just not buying it and was unwilling to associate with people like them, but he never expected the man to actually find a male partner! When he saw it on the forum, his jaw almost dropped, which was why he had specially come over tonight to make things difficult for Jiang Yanâwho told him to make him lose face in front of others?
But Jiang Yan was actually serious? With a guy?
The boy glared fiercely at Jiang Yan and said with a fake smile: “Brother Yan is joking. I was just making a joke. I wish you and Sister-in-law a long and happy life together!”
Wen Ran had already run out.
Although he heard Jiang Yanâs answer to those people, the subjects those people alluded to made him subconsciously project himself onto them. They were students of a prestigious university, but what about himself? A junior high school graduate, and his clothesâthe T-shirt was bought from a roadside stall for a hundred yuan for three pieces, the pants were from a Taobao sale, and the shoes were a pair of broken sizes for seventy yuan. Together, they didn’t even cost two hundred yuan. When Jiang Yan brought him along to introduce him to others, he would also feel nervous and evasive.
Wen Ran even felt that a person like himself was simply not worthy of Jiang Yanâs love. After entering the pro stage, his dream had somehow included another goal: to work hard to reach the top in order to grow to be a match for Jiang Yan. But he now realized that even when he reached that point, the gap between him and Jiang Yan might not be just a little bit. The chasm between them was destined from their original families.
Wen Ran irritably took out a cigarette, lit it, and expertly held it in his hand. After a sharp puff, he blew out a white smoke ring. Wen Ran had a slight cigarette addiction. He also knew it was not good for him, but when he was sad and depressed before, cigarettes were his companions. When he was very distressed, probably only that kind of stronger stimulation could calm him down.
“Yo, hiding here alone to enjoy yourself without a word?”
Wen Ran looked back. Jiang Yan was walking toward him, the familiar smile hanging on his face.
“Heartless little bastard, did you forget something?”
Wen Ran: “?”
Jiang Yan said unhurriedly: “I wonder who said they’d wait for me, yet slipped out secretly.”
“I…” Wen Ran was in the wrong, but he didn’t want to tell Jiang Yan about those things. It was too pretentious. So he chose the way he was most familiar with, glaring fiercely at Jiang Yan: “Didn’t I say? Mind your own business!”
Because of nervousness, Wen Ran continued to raise the cigarette and take it into his lips. White smoke slowly escaped from his beautiful lips, looking out of place with the obedient and cute clothes he was wearing. He didn’t know where he had thrown his hat, and his pink hair added a bit of rebelliousness, combining into a weird sense of beauty.
“Tsk, you like smoking this much?”
Jiang Yan came over and nudged him: “Give Gege one too?”
Wen Ran almost choked on the smoke: “Do you know how to smoke?”
He didn’t think a “favored son of heaven” like Jiang Yan looked like someone who would smoke.
Jiang Yan raised an eyebrow, directly took the half-smoked cigarette from Wen Ran’s hand, and put it in his own mouth without any disdain.
Wen Ran looked in disbelief as the manâs slender fingers held the cigarette. After taking a puff, he wasn’t choked by the smoke at all. Then he took the cigarette away, his hand holding it casually resting to the side as he leaned in and slowly blew a smoke ring toward him.
Only an old hand could control it so well!
Set against the backdrop of the night and the swirling smoke, Jiang Yanâs faceâwhich was already like a sculptureâlooked even more handsome. Wen Ran finally knew that someone could smoke so handsomely. Moreover, he had just taken the half-smoked cigarette he had had in his mouth…
Did this count as an indirect kiss?
Wen Ran and Jiang Yan had rarely kissed while soberâonly the first time they met, when he pressed the man onto the chair and kissed him once. But his mind wasn’t on Jiang Yan at all then.
Indirect kiss…
Wen Ran guiltily glanced at Jiang Yanâs lips. How could someoneâs lip shape be so good-looking? Exquisite and beautiful, even more charming when curled up.
Wen Ran pretended to be choked by the smoke and coughed uncomfortably.
“I didn’t expect you to be so skilled.”
“I used to smoke.” Jiang Yan smiled. “Who doesn’t have times when the pressure is high?”
Jiang Yan wasn’t lying. When he was at his most difficult, he also relied on cigarettes. On the night his good brother had the accident, he smoked an entire pack of cigarettes in the hospital corridor. At that time, WK was just a small team with no sponsors, and the players’ salaries were terribly low. He took out all his money, but it wasn’t enough for the surgery costs. It was also on that day that he chose to take the initiative to contact home.
His father agreed to give money to help his friend, but in exchange, he had to return, attend university, and follow the path planned for him.
“Jiang Yan, I have no interest in what you’re messing around with outside, but once you’ve had enough, it’s time to come home and do what you should do.”
Jiang Yanâs voice was incredibly raspy. He remembered gripping his phone so hard he almost crushed it.
” I’m coming back,” Jiang Yan said. “Give me one more month, at least let me handle things here.”
Jiang Yan hung up and couldn’t recover for a long time. This was his choice, and he didn’t regret it. If the other person hadn’t wanted to come see his match, he wouldn’t have been injured at all. He still had his wife and unborn child; Jiang Yan would do his best to help him no matter the cost.
That match was the semi-final. Later, Jiang Yan shone brilliantly in the final, leading WK to win the championship. A few days later, the retirement news was announced. WK.Wind thereafter became a name that only existed in the ninth and tenth seasons.
“Oh.”
Wen Ran lowered his head. When Jiang Yan was under high pressure… In his impression, Jiang Yan had always been composed and calm, with a very strong mindset; he simply couldn’t think of anything that could hurt the man.
“Look, you smoke, I smoke, and the gender is the same. No wonder we’re a perfect match.”
Wen Ran: “Why don’t you say we both have mouths and know how to eat?”
But his heart softened uncontrollably. Jiang Yan was intentionally pulling him to the same level as himself.
“Secretly tell you, I once climbed trees to raid bird nests and broke the teacher’s chalk.” Jiang Yan said. “You didn’t do those in primary school, did you?”
Wen Ran shook his head gently.
Jiang Yan smiled: “Then our Ran Ran is much more obedient than I was.”
“If we had been in the same class before, I would have been the ‘bad egg’ who bullied you,” Jiang Yan intentionally teased Wen Ran to make him happy. “And others wouldn’t have thought that the obedient Ran Ran would actually like me.”
Wen Ran was amused by him: “Then how many grades would you have to repeat?”
Jiang Yan said quite righteously: “A man three years older can also bring ‘gold bricks’ (good fortune).”
Wen Ran punched him. It was strange; the distressing feeling he had just now seemed to have dissipated. Now, only Jiang Yan was in his eyes.
“Later I quit smoking,” Jiang Yan said casually. “Smoking is just like that.”
Jiang Yan looked at Wen Ran from the side: “If you have anything on your mind, I’d rather you confide in me, your boyfriend, instead of looking for this stuff.”
“Gege even almost fought two-on-one with others for you!”
“You…”
Upon hearing Jiang Yanâs words, Wen Ran understood that Jiang Yan knew why he had run out. This man could always skillfully protect him, warming his heart bit by bit. If he were surrounded by thorns and others avoided him, Jiang Yan would be the one to untangle the thorns little by little. He would even hold him gently and say, “Look, you haven’t hurt me at all.”
“Ran Ran, quit smoking.” Jiang Yan suddenly grabbed Wen Ranâs shoulder and said, “Just consider it doing it for me, okay?”
“Who wants to do it for you!”
Wen Ran struggled with a red face, but the movement was very slight. Instead, it was more like he was snuggling into Jiang Yanâs arms.
Jiang Yan already took it as the little bastard having taken his words to heart: “And quitting smoking is very simple. Gege knows a very useful method; everyone who has used it says it works every time.”
“What is it?”
Wen Ran knew Jiang Yan had successfully quit smoking, so he didn’t think much of it.
Suddenly, Jiang Yan grabbed the back of his neck, turned him around firmly, leaned over, and kissed him.
He forcefully pried open Wen Ranâs lips, licking his mouth. The movement was forceful and overbearing, allowing Wen Ran only to make “woo-woo” sounds. In the end, he even bit Wen Ranâs lip lightly.
“Still want to smoke now?”
Wen Ranâs lips were red and a bit swollen from being ravaged just now.
“Isn’t this what a partner is for?” Jiang Yan looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction, saying without blushing at all: “When you have a craving for a smoke, just kiss Gege. You can kiss for as long as you want.”
“I definitely won’t resist.”
Wen Ran: “…”
He was now completely red. Who was kissing who exactly!
