Chapter 78 "Of course, he should be punished."...

The young man lying on the sofa was not fully awake yet; his brain was still a bit overwhelmed.

His chin was clamped, and his mouth was slightly unable to open: "Um...what?"

"Qiqi, you have so many people asking you out to dinner on WeChat." The man still held his chin, his knuckles tightening slightly. "They even asked... if you like younger brothers?"

"Do you like it?" The man's eyes flickered slightly.

Pei Xi: "??"

Why did Dr. Guan also ask him this question?

"What...what younger brother?"

Guan Yue: "Those younger brothers in your WeChat contacts."

Pei Qi felt a sharp pain in her jawbone from being pinched, and instinctively struggled, saying, "It hurts..."

The man's eyes, still dark and moist with a sinister glint in them, seemed oblivious to the capybara's accusation: "Do you like it?"

Pei Qi stopped struggling, because he found that the more he moved, the stronger the force on his chin became, and the more aggressive Dr. Guan's gaze became.

All he wants to do now is shrink back.

"I don't know any of them." The capybara's tone was a little aggrieved. "There's no such thing as liking or disliking them."

"Don't you recognize me?" The man loosened his grip slightly. "Then how come I have your WeChat?"

“They’re all students from the school. They said they wanted to ask me about ancient book restoration.” Pei Qi muttered. He himself found these questions quite strange. “Who knew they would ask these questions after I added them?”

Pei Xi: "You asked me the same question..."

"So, do you like younger brothers? I'd like to know." The man's tone softened considerably, his thumb stroking the young man's chin. "Does Qiqi prefer younger ones?"

Pei Xi opened her almond-shaped eyes, which were still moist from just waking up, and blinked: "I... don't feel anything special, it's fine."

After he finished speaking, the man's eyes darkened further, as if a layer of gloom had been cast over them.

The capybara then remembered that Dr. Guan was several years older than it.

Are you... bothered by this?

"Hmm." The capybara's eyes sparkled. "I don't really have any feelings for that, but I know... I like you."

"Whether Dr. Guan is 21 or 31, I like him."

Several seconds later.

Guan Yue's Adam's apple bobbed slightly: "Qiqi."

The capybara climbed onto the man's strong, muscular arm and said, "Mmm."

The man lifted his chin and kissed him.

It was a wet and long kiss.

"Ha..." When the capybara was released, it turned its head to breathe heavily.

"Have you eaten yet?" the man asked.

Pei Qi recovered and looked at the man's face again: "I've already eaten."

Guan Yue: "What did you eat?"

Pei Xi: "Hmm, egg noodles."

Guan Yue squeezed his fingers: "Are you full? Do you want me to make you something else to eat?"

Pei Qi shook her head and rubbed her stomach with her other hand: "No need, I'm full."

Guan Yue: "Are you still sleepy?"

Pei Qi shook her head again, her eyes crinkling with a slightly embarrassed smile, and said, "I've had enough sleep."

Guan Yue: "Okay."

The capybara was about to ask the man again why he was back so early.

The next instant, the man suddenly flipped over and pinned him down on the soft leather sofa.

The sofa's spring core swayed slightly.

Pei Xi: "!!"

"Qiqi promised me in Jingnan that she would do it, and she'll also be punished tonight." Guan Yue's voice was hoarse, his fingertips already rubbing together. "We're just in time, let's start early."

Pei Xi: "??!"

"What punishment? Why are you being punished?" The capybara's face flushed red, and it immediately sensed something was wrong. It couldn't help but gasp for breath. "Guan Yue... don't..."

"Of course you should be punished. You'll be punished for adding so many strange men on WeChat without telling them you're not single." The man didn't stop, burying his lips in the capybara's fair and slender neck.

The lips brushed lightly or heavily against the soft, white flesh of her neck.

"Hmph..."

My mind quickly turned into a complete mess again.

That's it, all my strength has been drained again.

I don't know how long Guan Yue/Wang Yuan/had been there, but the capybara's toes had tensed up several times.

The man straightened his back and took off the gray sweater he was wearing.

The cool-toned lighting in the living room shone on the man's tanned skin, making his well-defined muscles and the smooth lines of his arms look even better.

I want to see the capybara.

But I still don't dare to be too blatant.

I still feel a little embarrassed.

So he covered his eyes with his arm.

Guan Yue frowned slightly and reached out to lift the capybara's arm above his head.

"Qiqi, look at me."

Pei Xi felt the light in her eyes suddenly intensify, and subconsciously turned her face away: "Hmm."

"Look at me, baby." The man turned the little capybara's face towards him, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Two pairs of eyes met.

Pei Qi felt his ears getting even hotter.

Guan Yue leaned down and kissed him again, his nimble tongue prying into the young man's pearly teeth, exploring every part of his mouth.

It was another thick, sticky kiss.

For the first time, Pei Xi felt that the night was incredibly long.

There is no wind tonight.

During halftime, he had no reference points left.

I just felt even more confused.

The capybara was embarrassed to be in the living room and insisted on going back to the bedroom.

The man seemed not to hear at all, burying his head in his work.

"I'm thirsty! I'm thirsty, I want to drink water." Pei Qi said pitifully, "Guan Yue...you go first...I want to drink water."

"Okay, then take Qiqi to get some water."

"!!"

The man embraced the capybara and carried him away from the sofa, heading straight for the island counter.

Ahhhhh.

Pei Xi felt her scalp go numb, completely numb.

But he was afraid of falling, so he could only cling tightly to Guan Yueshen.

"You...you..." He wanted to curse but couldn't get the words out.

The two of them swayed with their gait.

Guan Yue held up the capybara's light, which slid up and swayed upwards.

Pei Xi couldn't help but let out a few moans from her bitten lips.

"Hiss, Qiqi." The man paused involuntarily. "_____, I will _____."

Pei Xi wished she could be deaf for a moment and could only bury her head in the man's arms.

He didn't know where Dr. Guan got the strength to hold him like that and still pour water for him.

The man brought the glass to his lips.

Just as he was about to drink, Guan Yue took the water away again.

"What are you doing?" Even the gentle capybara got angry. "You won't even give me water to drink."

"Here's some for you, Qiqi." The man's lips curled up slightly. "I'll feed you."

Guan Yue tilted his head back, pressed it against the cup, and held the water in his mouth.

The little capybara blushed, unhappy, and wanted to get the cup itself.

The man pushed the glass away along the island counter.

His relaxed, sword-like eyebrows twitched slightly upwards, and he asked, "Hmm?"

Pei Xi bit her lip hard, her whole body turning into a durian pastry.

Left with no other choice.

He could only kiss Guan Yue's lips.

The clear, cool water was continuously poured into their mouths.

"Hmm..."

Then, they inexplicably ended up at the edge of the island platform...

And then.

Pei Xi couldn't remember.

Late at night, the morning mist outside the window seemed to be quietly gathering.

Guan Yue leaned against the headboard, playing with the capybara's soft, black hair.

He then picked up the capybara's phone.

Only the capybara-shaped nightlight was on in the bedroom, so the light was still rather dim.

In this dimly lit room, shrouded in a layer of gloom, a damp male ghost holds his wife's cell phone.

I don't know what they're doing.

Early morning, when the alarm clock rings.

Pei Xi was in a daze, unable to distinguish between reality and a dream.

I tried to open my eyes, but it felt like super glue had stuck my eyelids shut.

I just can't open my eyes.

"Qiqi, can you get up? How about I ask you for a day off?"

Until the man spoke close to his ear.

Ask for leave.

Two forces are fighting within the capybara's head.

No, I can't take leave.

He still has to write the test report and enter the data into the system today...

“No…no invitation.” Pei Qi spoke with great difficulty, realizing that her voice was frighteningly hoarse. “Doctor Guan…”

"Hmm? I'm here." The man pulled him into his arms.

Pei Xi: "My throat... is it damaged? Can you fix it for me?"

Guan Yue chuckled softly, "Yes, you can, don't worry."

"I don't want surgery..." The capybara nuzzled against him, its voice trembling.

The man laughed out loud: "Take a day off, baby. You should get some more sleep now."

Pei Xi felt like her brain was starting to fight again.

And right now, he doesn't even have the strength to open his eyes.

Guan Yue: "Go to sleep, I'll ask for leave for you."

His mind was a complete mess, he couldn't think straight, and then he thought about his throat.

He uttered a statement that was both logical and illogical: "No... all you know how to do is remove appendixes and gallbladders... you don't know how to treat a sore throat."

The man still smiled and kissed his hair: "I will, I will, don't worry."

The capybara in my arms fell silent.

She's probably asleep again.

Guan Yue then picked up the capybara's phone and found Lao Jiang's number.

About a few seconds.

Old Jiang's booming voice came through the receiver: "Xiao Xi, what's wrong?"

"Master, I am Guan Yue."

Old Jiang's tone became urgent: "Oh, it's Xiao Guan. What's wrong? Did something happen to Xiao Qi?"

"He... woke up this morning with a bit of a cold and isn't feeling well. Could he take the morning off?" The man looked down at the capybara nestled in the blankets.

Her exposed neck was covered in red marks.

Old Jiang: "You've caught a cold? Is it serious? I'll come and check on you later."

Guan Yue: "It's alright, I'm taking care of it, you don't need to worry..."

Old Jiang, still a little worried, gave several more instructions, saying he would come to check on her that evening: "Xiao Qi hasn't taken many days off, she's probably really feeling unwell, please take good care of her, Xiao Guan."

The instigator, without batting an eye, said: "Okay, don't worry, I'll take good care of him."

After hanging up the phone, Guan Yue scooped the capybara that was lying by the bed and kissed it several times in a very "caring" manner.

"Hmm..." Pei Qi was a little annoyed by the kisses, feeling her face was all wet.

Guan Yue: "Do you want to eat breakfast?"

"Hmm..." The little capybara felt that its eyes could finally open a crack.

Guan Yue: "Then I'll do it. I'll rest today and spend some quality time with you."

Pei Xi wasn't listening; her head still ached a little.

When he came to his senses, Guan Yue had already gone downstairs to make breakfast.

He picked up his phone from beside the bed, intending to send a message to his mentor, explaining that he would have to go to work in the afternoon.

As a result, I opened WeChat.

I saw his chat history with those students.

Student A: [Teacher, do you like younger brothers?]

Seven: [The teacher is married.]

Seven: [I'm not considering my younger brother.]
