Looking at the overly fair and distinctly bony hand in front of him, Yu Guang’s heart suddenly trembled.

He suddenly remembered the soft and moist feeling when the clear and cool water flowed over his fingertips a few days ago. At that time, he was wondering if he had ever held Senior Ye Si’s hand, what would it feel like?

Now, the opportunity was right in front of him, but he suddenly felt timid.

Ye Si’s hand was very beautiful.

The fingers were white and slender, and the nails were neatly trimmed.

Normally, painters who often used brushes would develop calluses on the first joint of their middle fingers, but Ye Si’s hands didn’t have any, delicate like newly-born jade.

Yu Guang unconsciously swallowed, unable to move his gaze away.

It wasn’t until Ye Si asked again, “What’s wrong?” that he snapped out of his thoughts.

After hesitating for a moment, Yu Guang bit his lip, seeming hesitant, and timidly placed his hand on the palm of the other.

Ye Si’s hand was as he had imagined, cold and strong, capable of fulfilling all sorts of intimate fantasies.

Ye Si exerted a slight force and pulled him up from the grass.

Without any hesitation, Yu Guang had already made up his mind.

He held his breath, almost afraid to meet Ye Si’s eyes, pretending to have numb legs and stumbling forward.

He fell into that broad embrace as he wished.

Ye Si was tall, so in this embrace… it seemed that he could almost touch the other’s chin by just tilting his head slightly.

The sexy protruding Adam’s apple, the broad and secure shoulders…

Only in romantic dreams, what would it be like to kiss, to lean in?

Clearly, he could lie without changing his face in front of others, but in front of Ye Si, he was unexpectedly nervous and stiff.

Ye Si had no idea at this moment what audacious thoughts his obedient junior, held in his embrace, had.

Yu Guang’s heart in his left chest was pounding wildly, the sound of pounding echoing in his ears, creating an almost ringing illusion.

In the midst of the intense ringing, the tingling sensation from his sensitive lower back brought him back to reality.

The hairs all over his body stood on end because of this.

Ye Si’s embrace completely accepted him, and even the other hand naturally wrapped around his waist.

—The position happened to be on the finger marks left by that drunken night.

This place had never been touched by anyone else, and he wouldn’t deliberately touch it when bathing.

Almost instantly held down, Yu Guang’s lower back trembled uncontrollably for a few moments.

A strangely familiar feeling made his heart skip a beat.

The nervous gulping sound was particularly evident between the two who had fallen silent for a moment.

Yu Guang’s ears suddenly turned bright red, but he still tried to focus and tell himself—

It’s just a coincidence,

It must be just a coincidence.

The slightly long stray hair blocked the panic that flashed in his eyes.

In his panic, he suddenly realized that he was still holding Ye Si’s hand.

Even the slightly sweaty palm made the contact damp…

He had wet the hand of the revered deity.

This absurd and bizarre thought flashed through his mind, and he couldn’t contain it once it emerged.

Yu Guang closed his eyes in intoxicated bliss where Ye Si couldn’t see.

The retro and low-key scent of pine wood surged into his nostrils, enveloping him layer by layer —

Compared to the faint woody scent he had passed by countless times, the intoxication brought by this embrace was like the inevitable tide, surging and churning.

Although knowing it was inappropriate, Yu Guang couldn’t resist crossing the line.

He lightly rubbed Ye Si’s palm with his curved finger, almost imperceptibly.

Very gently, but the excitement and guilt it brought were like a raging fire, swiftly and fiercely invading his heart.

His breathing suddenly became much heavier.

He tried hard to restrain himself from letting the other party notice his unusual behavior.

He carefully raised his head, meeting Ye Si’s usual, superficially gentle gaze.

He felt relieved but also somewhat disappointed.

It seemed that Ye Si had not noticed his greedy touch, which made him feel lucky, almost wanting to take the risk to tease again.

Just as he was wrestling with himself in his mind, Ye Si’s hand on his waist exerted a bit more force.

“Don’t get up so vigorously next time, still feeling dizzy?”

Like a warning bell ringing directly in his mind, Yu Guang’s hand trembled, and the fingertips that had just reached out retreated completely.

“S-Sorry!”

With a slightly trembling tone, as if just awakened from a daze, he suddenly pushed the other person away.

Yu Guang knew that Ye Si’s gaze was now on him, hiding curiosity and interest beneath the gentleness.

He couldn’t afford to show any flaws.

Ye Si was such a smart person that once he caught a glimpse of something, Yu Guang would never have the chance to secretly follow him and observe him again…

Yu Guang lowered his head even more, his thick black curly lashes fluttering, also inadvertently blocking the thoughts and calculations in his eyes.

“Sorry… I-I just didn’t stand firm…”

His fingertips gripped the hem of the white shirt, almost whitening it with force, and his cheeks slowly flushed under Ye Si’s unwavering gaze, gradually turning red to his neck, even the round and soft earlobes blushing as if about to bleed.

A hint of almost imperceptible desire flashed in Ye Si’s narrow eyes as he lightly pinched.

His palm still retained the moist vapor, soft body warmth, and the teasing sensation like feathers brushing past, left by Yu Guang.

The gentle curve at the corner of his mouth completely disappeared, his long lashes drooping, inexplicably glancing at the shy and timid boy with his head down like a fawn.

Reaching out to rub the soft top of the other’s head, Ye Si smiled faintly, “It’s okay.”

Intentionally or unintentionally, when he withdrew his hand, his fingertips grazed Yu Guang’s pink earlobes, satisfactorily watching the blush deepen.

“Do you also like to come here on weekends?” Ye Si’s gaze swept over the Book of Songs, continuing, “If you don’t mind… you can come to the pavilion and find me.”

Yu Guang was smashed by this sudden surprise, staring blankly for several seconds before reacting.

Suddenly looking up at Ye Si, his peach blossom eyes widened slightly, coupled with the remaining blush on his pink and white cheeks, making him look extremely cute.

“Really? Can I come to the pavilion to find you?” He subconsciously used honorifics again, uncomfortably pursing his lips.

This reaction seemed to amuse Ye Si greatly, and Yu Guang heard his pleasant laughter.

“Of course.”

As soon as the words fell, Ye Si suddenly called out to him again:

“Yu Guang…”

“Yeah?”

“Why are you so cute?”
