Chapter 30 Let's Get Together

For the next month, Chi Chen did indeed do what he said he would do: sleep and do nothing else.

He seemed to be genuinely learning how to pursue people and how to date.

Xu Yan didn't like any obvious interactions at the company, so Chi Chen would only greedily hug him for a while when they were alone.

At the end of the month, Xu Yan was going on a seven-day business trip to the west. On the night of his departure, Chi Chen quietly helped him pack his luggage, including all the medicines he would probably need and his usual items.

Xu Yan leaned against the door frame, her heart seemingly softening slightly, but her tone remained calm. "Just one week."

"I don't want to be separated from my brother for even a day." Chi Chen zipped up the suitcase, picked it up, turned around, and said seriously, "There are two weekend days in between, I'll go see my brother."

Xu Yan paused for a moment, then quickly refused, "I'm busy on the weekend too, I don't have time to spend with you."

Flying takes long enough, this is too much of a hassle.

"Okay." Chi Chen abandoned the absurd idea. "Then, can we video chat when you're done with your work, brother?"

Xu Yan understood; just like before they met in person, she preferred video calls...

However, after a month without sex, Xu Yan was actually starting to feel restless.

After all, the experience of being with Chi Chen was very good.

There is no need to deliberately avoid touching the other person.

Xu Yan was taken to the airport by Chi Chen early in the morning. After a brief farewell, she walked into the security checkpoint.

The journey took a little longer, and by the time Xu Yan got off the plane, her phone already had dozens of messages saved on it.

He lowered his eyes and saw the latest one.

"Has brother landed yet?"

The other party initiated a transfer of 10,000 yuan.

"Brother, go eat something good, don't go hungry."

It's a strange feeling... like I'm being thought about all the time.

After being picked up and taken to the hotel, Xu Yan found a place to eat something simple.

Only then did he have time to check Chi Chen's messages.

From the very top... it was only the time he had just boarded the plane.

Chi Chen: "My brother, Da Ju, sneaked into your room to sleep and knocked things down, but I've already cleaned them up. [Image attached]"

The picture shows Daju being punished by standing, with Chi Chen gently pinching Daju's neck with one hand, which is quite comical.

Later, I went to the company and complained to him about my colleagues.

Chi Chen's messages were scattered and simple, so Xu Yan didn't feel much burdened and could glance at the contents at a glance.

It's just an ordinary daily routine, but it's actually quite interesting.

As expected, Chi Chen called him via video call after asking if he was free. In the past, when they video-called, Chi Chen never showed his face, only the parts that should be shown.

As soon as the video call connected, Xu Yan saw Chi Chen's large face right in front of the camera, the distortion caused by the lens making him look a bit silly.

Xu Yan, who had already posed and was about to video chat as usual, was stunned for a moment.

He moved the camera slightly upwards, only revealing the area above the shoulders.

"Is there something wrong?" Xu Yan had never had an intimate relationship, so he had no idea how to make a video without any explicit content.

"It's like my brother is sleeping with me." Chi Chen's camera shakiened, then switched to a horizontal angle, squeezing his face against the lens, making him look even sillier.

Chi Chen clearly had no interest in that area, and Xu Yan was too embarrassed to bring it up, so she lay down as well.

After talking for only a few minutes, he felt sleepy.

"Brother is tired, go to sleep. I'll hang up after you fall asleep," Chi Chen said softly.

Xu Yan closed her eyes and softly hummed in agreement.

In the following days, Xu Yan was busy with work, but he would also take time to video chat with Chi Chen in the evenings.

Without exception, they were all simply there to sleep together.

Xu Yan would feel particularly urges when he was tired; he was struggling to hold back, but his seductive poses in the video would be very obvious…

When you get home, just seduce him.

As the two of them eagerly awaited, Xu Yan finally returned from her business trip.

Chi Chen even brought a bouquet of flowers to greet him.

Xu Yan had never received flowers before, which was a very novel experience for her. It made them seem like they were very innocent, even though they had completely reversed the usual process for couples.

Chi Chen took Xu Yan's hand and they went back to the car together. They arrived home around 6 p.m.

Opening the room door, the warm yellow light creates a cozy feeling of home.

Xu Yan's three cats, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, were all skillfully squatting at the door, circling around her feet.

"Brother, would you like to take a bath first? I already filled the tub before I came out." Chi Chen considerately took Xu Yan's coat. "Dinner has also been prepared. I'm not home, so I had the housekeeper cook it first."

"Okay." Xu Yan did not refuse his arrangement. After all, she was too tired when she was on a business trip. She felt very comfortable to have someone to take care of her as soon as she got home.

In the past, after a busy day when I came back from a business trip, I still needed to tidy up and handle everything myself.

It seems like having a companion is not bad.

Xu Yan put down her things and went to take a bath. Chi Chen seemed to have put something in the bathtub; the faint fragrance made people feel relaxed.

When he came out after putting on his pajamas, Chi Chen had already packed his things in his suitcase and set out dinner on the table.

Two candlesticks cast a warm glow, illuminating the plates and wine glasses on the table.

Classical music was playing nearby.

Xu Yan walked down the stairs, somewhat amused, and said, "What's going on here?"

"Absence makes the heart grow fonder." Although Chi Chen had also changed into his pajamas, he still gentlemanly took Xu Yan's hand, helped him to the table, and pulled out a chair for Xu Yan to sit down.

He opened the red wine himself and poured Xu Yan a small half-glass, saying, "Try it, you like it."

Xu Yan picked up the wine glass, the candlelight shining through the deep red wine, making it gleam like a jewel. He gently swirled it, "How did you know I liked it?"

“I remember everything you said during your live stream,” Chi Chen said with a smile.

Xu Yan was stunned for a moment... He didn't even remember saying such a thing during a live broadcast.

Besides, that was their relationship back then, was it really necessary to remember something like that?

After the meal, the alcohol had relaxed his body considerably, and Xu Yan's nerves were slightly at ease. He stood up and leaned forward, supporting himself on the table. "Chi Chen, how about tonight...?"

"No, brother." Chi Chen said seriously, "I won't..."

Before she could finish speaking, Xu Yan's lips were already covering hers.

The sweet and bitter taste of alcohol filled his mouth, and Chi Chen's eyes widened, as if he was surprised by the sudden kiss.

Before he could get into the moment, Xu Yan had already straightened up and sat in his lap, her voice low and husky yet confident, "Then let's make our relationship official."

Chi Chen's expression went blank for a moment, as if his mind had crashed, but after a few seconds he seemed to finally come to his senses.

He suddenly stood up, picked Xu Yan up horizontally, and practically rushed upstairs to his room.

A beautiful night...
