Qin Yiheng realized the joy of teasing Chu Yi at this time.

He knew about Chu Yi’s shyness.

He knew that Chu Yi listens to him well.

Probably because he was afraid of Qin Yiheng’s anger, of that he would become unhappy. To Qin Yiheng, Chu Yi will always answer when he asks, say when he wants, and never tell lies.

Way too obedient, way too cute.

After one round, Chu Yi’s body temporarily lacked strength all over.

Qin Yiheng held him in his arms, held his wrist, and shook it up and down.

Chu Yi’s limp arm also shook up and down with it.

Chu Yi, who originally had closed his eyes, slowly opened his eyes after being shaken about by Qin Yiheng.

He looked weakly at his arm, and then closed his eyes again.

Qin Yiheng stopped playing with his arm. He accurately found Chu Yi’s little snail and pressed it with his fingers.

Chu Yi let out a dreary “mn”.

Qin Yiheng asked, “Is this a birthmark or a scar?”

Chu Yi, “Scar.”

Qin Yiheng rubbed it lightly with his finger, “How did you get it?”

Chu Yi said, “Pricked from glass.”

Qin Yiheng was curious, “You were naughty as a kid?”

Chu Yi suddenly raised his head to look at Qin Yiheng, and then shook his head lightly, “No, my father made it, he pricked it with a broken vase.”

Qin Yiheng’s hand suddenly stopped.

Chu Yi’s narration overturned his imagination, instantly making him uncomfortable and his brows frowned.

“It’s all right.” Chu Yi smiled when he saw Qin Yiheng’s worried face, “It’s been so long, junior high, junior third year? More than ten years.”

Qin Yiheng looked as if he didn’t know how to comfort him, but he wanted to do something, in the end, he could only hug Chu Yi tightly.

Chu Yi smiled again, “It’s really alright. You don’t have to be like this.”

Qin Yiheng gently touched Chu Yi’s forehead with his lips, “Were there a lot of blood?”

Chu Yi shook his head, “I don’t know, probably.”

He really doesn’t remember. Everything was a mess that night. His mother’s injury was much worse than his. After going to the hospital, he had to go to the police station. He couldn’t care about the injury on his leg and just dealt with it casually.

After all, it’s just bleeding. Everything that happened around him hurted more than this injury.

Qin Yiheng held him tighter.

Chu Yi slipped into Qin Yiheng’s arms and sighed gently.

“Qin Yiheng, in fact, I don’t like it when others comfort me, it will make me more miserable.”

Qin Yiheng patted his head, “You’re not miserable.”

Chu Yi nodded, “I haven’t been miserable for a long time. My parents divorced, then my mother and I moved to City A. I lived well here, very well.”

Qin Yiheng patted Chu Yi on the head, “Did your father ever contact you guys again?”

Chu Yi was stunned briefly when he heard this.

Qin Yiheng immediately noticed that something was wrong with Chu Yi. He frowned again and lowered his head to look at Chu Yi, “Why aren’t you talking?”

Chu Yi didn’t seem very happy, “He hasn’t been in touch before, but I don’t know why he suddenly came to City A to look for me this year.”

Qin Yiheng held Chu Yi’s shoulder, separated a little, and looked into his eyes, “Why did he come looking for you?”

Chu Yi sighed, seemingly a little difficult to say, “Asked for money, he said he’s old now and wants alimony.”

Qin Yiheng, “Did you give it?”

“I gave it.” Chu Yi sighed and said quietly, “He said he would look for my mother if I didn’t.”

Qin Yiheng’s frown grew tighter.

Chu Yi, “I asked my friend who studied law. Since he’s still my father, my friend said that I’m the disadvantaged party in this situation, which is quite difficult to deal with.”

Chu Yi sighed.

Chu Yi never really wanted to mention Chen Jianshi. As long as he didn’t think of this person, he could pretend his past was not his and he didn’t have this father.

Other than having this father, Chu Yi’s life could basically be called successful and full of happiness.

“Where is he now?” Qin Yiheng asked again.

Chu Yi shook his head, “I don’t know, logically, he should be in City B.”

Chu Yi didn’t want to inquire more about him in the first place.

When talking about Chen Jianshi, Chu Yi’s mood turned quite blue.

He shook his head, put his arm around Qin Yiheng’s neck, and put his chin on Qin Yiheng’s shoulder, “Let’s not talk about this, you don’t have to comfort me either. I’m fine, don’t say anymore, no more.”

Qin Yiheng inhaled a long breath and then exhaled slowly.

Chu Yi said he doesn’t need comfort, but Qin Yiheng didn’t behave like that.

His hands and lips were gradually cherished. Chu Yi could feel it, especially the part where his little snail is.

How cruel Qin Yiheng was to the snail before was how gentle he was to the snail at this moment.

With just the snail alone, Chu Yi already felt like he was being teased to death by Qin Yiheng.

In fact, he wanted to tell Qin Yiheng that he didn’t need to be like this, that he was really fine.

But as Qin Yiheng kept kissing him, he didn’t want to say it anymore.

Just a little more then, he wanted it.

After he finished with the snail, Qin Yiheng returned to the cake.

A new round of attack was about to begin.

This time, he didn’t know where Qin Yiheng pulled out a tie and the tie clip given by Chu Yi.

Qin Yiheng held Chu Yi’s wrists together, bit the tie, and used it to circle around them. He didn’t knot it at the end, he only clamped it with a tie clip.

Qin Yiheng said, “You can’t loosen it, you can’t drop it, you can’t break it.”

After he said this, he put Chu Yi’s hands over his head.

Mr. Qin kept his promise. For the rest of the time remaining, he experienced all the things that happened behind the white screen that he hadn’t experienced before.

During this process, Chu Yi also had to think about the tie on his wrist, and the precious tie clip.

This time, Qin Yiheng fulfilled his wish, he was very mean.

After being mean, he gave Chu Yi some sugar and gently kissed his lips.

…

At two o’clock in the morning, Chu Yi suddenly woke up.

The first thing that came to his mind when he woke up was to know whether his tie clip was safe.

Qin Yiheng hadn’t slept yet. He probably went to the bathroom. The bedroom light was on and there was the sound of water coming from over there.

Chu Yi crawled a bit, then he saw a tie and the tie clip at Qin Yiheng’s bedside.

He crawled over a bit more and took both things over.

The tie had been wrinkled, but the tie clip was still in good condition.

Chu Yi crawled back again. It wasn’t long before Qin Yiheng came out of the bathroom.

“Woke up?” Qin Yiheng asked him.

Chu Yi said sleepily, “I didn’t.”

Qin Yiheng lay down beside him, “Sleep.”

Chu Yi whispered an “mn” and then leaned towards Qin Yiheng’s side,  “Aren’t you sleepy?”

Qin Yiheng, “I’m fine.”

“You went to bed late yesterday, got up early today, going to bed late today, and getting up early tomorrow, that’s so unhealthy.”

Chu Yi spat this out word by word with his eyes closed.

He was very sleepy, but he wanted to reason with Qin Yiheng. Chu Yi said this both gently and harshly, like he was dream-talking.

Qin Yiheng smiled, kissed Chu Yi’s forehead, and said in his ear, “Can’t be helped.”

Chu Yi murmured a “wu”.

Qin Yiheng turned off the light and it darkened around them. The quilt was pulled, then Chu Yi was held by someone.

He didn’t know what Qin Yiheng meant by ‘can’t be helped’, his brain had already started to crash because of drowsiness.

Qin Yiheng seemed to be answering the wrong question, but he seemed to have made a lot of sense.

The moment before he fell asleep, Chu Yi’s mind was full of.

Chu Yi.

You’re a Helen of Troy.

The next day they didn’t get up too early.

It was almost half past 11 when the two that slept while hugging each other made some movements.

Chu Yi can sleep soundly until now because he already woke up once at 7 o’clock.

Why did he wake up? Perhaps because he accidentally moved his body in his sleep, and then a certain muscle was affected. As a result, he was awakened by pain.

That’s right, he has a sore waist and a sore back.

It was quite troublesome.

After waking up, he took a glance at Qin Yiheng’s schedule that Xu Jing sent him.

His work was easy today, it’s written on the chart to arrive at the meeting at 1 p.m.

“Qin Yiheng.” Chu Yi called him gently and heard Qin Yiheng hum a response. Chu Yi said, “Good morning.”

Qin Yiheng slowly opened his eyes, closed them again, and replied, “Morning.”

Chu Yi said, “It’s time to get up.”

Qin Yiheng, “Mn.”

Chu Yi, “You can have lunch after you get up.”

Qin Yiheng, “Mn.”

Chu Yi, “You’re that sleepy?”

Qin Yiheng, “Mn.”

Then let’s just nest for a bit.

Nesting for a bit is good for the waist.

Chu Yi didn’t bother Qin Yiheng. He took his phone and ordered two porridges first, and then got up slowly to wash.

When he came out of the bathroom, Qin Yiheng finally got up.

It was an everyday scene. He came out of the bathroom and then Qin Yiheng went into the bathroom.

Chu Yi stared at the door of the bathroom for a long time before he recalled his senses and put on the suit Qin Yiheng bought yesterday.

When Qin Yiheng came out, Chu Yi had finished changing his clothes.

The amount of times Chu Yi wore a suit could be counted with a hand, and he didn’t have many suits he had at home either.

The last time he wore it was when he went to the Civil Affairs Bureau with Qin Yiheng to get their marriage certificate.

Chu Yi tidied up his collar, opened his arms, looked at Qin Yiheng, and asked, “Is it okay?”

Qin Yiheng nodded, “Yes.”

Chu Yi looked at himself in the mirror and took out the tie from the bag.

But he didn’t get to tie it by himself because Qin Yiheng came over.

Qin Yiheng took the tie from Chu Yi’s hand. When Chu Yi saw how he looked so skilled with it, he immediately let go of his hand and let him do it.

But this Mr. Qin…

Chu Yi lowered his head and looked at how Qin Yiheng was looping here and there, no matter what he did, it wasn’t right.

He wanted to remind him, but Qin Yiheng’s loops were really difficult, he couldn’t understand them no matter how he looked at them.

Chu Yi grabbed Qin Yiheng’s wrist and said, “Why don’t I do it myself?”

Qin Yiheng shook his head, “I can do it.”

So Chu Yi could only take his hands off.

But how did Qin Yiheng make it work? He directly stood behind Chu Yi and stretched out his hand from behind.

As if he was tying his own tie. This time, Qin Yiheng finally tied his tie.

Qin Yiheng returned in front of Chu Yi again and pinched Chu Yi’s tie, “It’s done.”

Chu Yi nodded and praised, “Wow, so amazing.”

Qin Yiheng looked at Chu Yi with an expressionless face.

Chu Yi laughed quietly.

Then, Qin Yiheng went to the table again, took Chu Yi’s tie clip, found a position that’s attractive to the eye, and clipped it on.

Qin Yiheng stepped back three steps to look at Chu Yi, as if he had just packaged Chu Yi, his eyes were full of appreciation.

Qin Yiheng, “My little husband is so handsome.”

Chu Yi nodded politely to Qin Yiheng, “Thank you for your compliment.”

Today, Chu Yi also routinely tied Qin Yiheng’s tie and clipped the tie clip in the same place.

His husband is also very handsome!

After Qin Yiheng got dressed, the porridge Chu Yi ordered was delivered to the door.

Because he didn’t tell Qin Yiheng, Chu Yi could visibly see Qin Yiheng’s slightly surprised expression.

Chu Yi took the food inside, “The same place from yesterday morning.”

Qin Yiheng, “I know. I originally wanted to take you there to eat.”

Chu Yi was stunned.

That’s right.

Why not go there and eat?

Since they ordered the food, they moved a little ahead of schedule. In less than half an hour, the two could go out after putting on their coats.

Qin Yiheng informed Xu Jing in advance, so as soon as he opened the door of the room, he saw Xu Jing standing at the door.

Chu Yi and Xu Jing greeted each other routinely, then the three went down together.

Probably because Chu Yi was standing beside Xu Jing, it made Xu Jing feel close to him. So when he got on the elevator, Xu Jing looked at the door of the elevator and said with a smile, “President Qin and Mr. Chu look so well-matched today.”

Chu Yi immediately smiled, “Right, actually we were also well-matched yesterday, when we went to see the play.”

Xu Jing, “President Qin changed out of his suit?”

Chu Yi nodded, “That’s right.” He turned to Qin Yiheng, “Yesterday he matched me, today I’m matching him.”

Xu Jing smiled, “You two match well either way.”

Qin Yiheng, who was told they match well either way, smiled a little.

Then he approached closer to Chu Yi and held Chu Yi’s hand.

He looked at the two people reflected from the door of the elevator.

Mn, they do match well.

It wasn’t long before the door of the elevator opened.

Qin Yiheng restrained his smile. Then, subconsciously, he wanted to put his hand into his coat pocket.

When he moved his hand, he remembered that he was holding Chu Yi’s hand.

Qin Yiheng thought for a bit, then simply put Chu Yi’s hands into his pocket as well.

With such a tug, Chu Yi was brought even closer to him.

He couldn’t help turning his head to look at Chu Yi, and Chu Yi just happened to turn his head to look at him.

They looked at each other, smiled, and walked out together.

A friend traveling with them was waiting downstairs. Chu Yi had a vague impression of him, he was one of the three important people waiting outside Qin Yiheng’s door yesterday.

Chu Yi walked over with Qin Yiheng and smiled at the man, counting it as his greeting.

“I’m sorry, please hang on a second.” The man apologized and waved to the side, “Hurry.”

Chu Yi turned around and saw a girl trotting over with bags in her hand.

Before long, the girl ran over to them. She first held up the bags, and then returned the card in her hand to the friend, “I bought three.”

The friend didn’t seem to care much. He didn’t put the card away, but gave it back to the girl, “Keep it, buy whatever you want.”

The girl was so happy that she hugged the friend’s arm and said, “Thanks!”

It was just a small incident. After the girl was done being excited, she stood beside the friend all behaved. Then the few people went out together.

Both the friend’s car and Qin Yiheng’s car had been waiting for a long time. They didn’t delay any longer and each got into their respective cars and headed towards the meeting hall.

After getting in the car, Chu Yi asked, “Was that person just now from your company?”

Qin Yiheng shook his head, “No, we’re just working together this time.”

Chu Yi said, “Oh, his girlfriend is going there to play too?”

Qin Yiheng, “Mn.” He thought for a bit, then added, “His girlfriend has always been with him these days.”

Chu Yi let outban “ah”.

What is Qin Yiheng being roundabout about?

Mn? Mn?

Since you were being roundabout about it.

I’ll pretend not to understand.

When the car reached the main road, Qin Yiheng suddenly released Chu Yi’s hand and turned to his bag, searching through it.

Chu Yi looked at him curiously. Before long, he saw Qin Yiheng take out a wallet from his bag.

Then he took out a card and handed it to Chu Yi.

Chu Yi was a little confused, “Ah? What?”

Qin Yiheng, “For you to buy stuff.”

Chu Yi wondered, “Buy what?”

Qin Yiheng, “Whatever.”

Chu Yi paused briefly. He seemed to have understood.

Chu Yi, “I have money.”

Qin Yiheng looked like he didn’t know what excuse to use, but he wanted to give it to Chu Yi, so he could only hand it over bluntly, “Take it.”

So Chu Yi had to take it.

Qin Yiheng thought for a bit and said, “Spend my money.”

As soon as Qin Yiheng’s voice fell, Xu Jing sitting in the front row suddenly started coughing.

Seeming to be choking on something.

Cough, cough, cough.
