Chapter 48 "You called me brother and said you wanted to sleep with me."
The curtains were not drawn tightly last night, and the early morning sunlight came in, falling right on Lin Mian's sleeping face.
He was disturbed and his eyelashes trembled slightly. Before he opened his eyes, he felt the pain in his head.
His brow furrowed, he tried to raise his hand to rub his temples, but found his arm was restrained. He moved again, and it seemed like more than just his arm was restrained...
When he opened his eyes, the unfamiliar room made him feel a little dazed for a moment, and he looked around.
When he lowered his head, he saw a pair of strong arms wrapped around him from behind, with broad palms wrapped around his hands, and his back pressed against the firm chest.
He was completely wrapped in the arms of the person behind him.
He turned his head, but because the distance was too close, his lips touched the corner of the other person's lips, and he paused for a moment.
"Lin Xiaotu..."
The man who seemed to be sleeping opened his eyes and looked down at him, "You kissed me right after I woke up."
"It wasn't a secret kiss..." Lin Mian wanted to say that he didn't mean it.
"Oh..." Jiang Jie's eyes lit up with understanding, "That's a legitimate kiss."
Lin Mian closed his mouth, he felt that he had no way to explain.
Jiang Yan chuckled softly, tightened his arms and hugged him again, nuzzling his face against the side of his neck. "Okay, I won't tease you anymore."
Sure enough, he was up to no good again... Lin Mian could now understand him a little bit.
He blinked his eyes, his head still aching slightly, and his thoughts were no longer as chaotic as when he first woke up. He remembered where he was.
They were in a villa in the central area of N City. They still remembered having dinner with those psychics last night and seemed to have had a few drinks.
And then...
He frowned and recalled, but he couldn't remember how he left there. His memory seemed to start to blur halfway through his meal.
Closing his eyes, he said, "Was it Brother Sae who brought me back yesterday?"
Jiang Jie, who was dozing with his eyes closed, opened his eyes when he heard this, "You don't remember?"
Not only did he get drunk after one drink, but he also lost his memory?
Lin Mian shook his head, pulled his hand out of the other person's grasp, and rubbed it on his temples. "I don't quite remember. My head hurts."
Jiang Yan reached out and pinched his wrist, "So, you don't remember what you said last night?"
Words? Lin Mian's brows knitted even tighter. He really couldn't remember. He turned his head to observe the other person's expression and asked tentatively: "I, didn't I say anything bad?"
The feeling of being laughed at by anger seemed to come back. Jiang Jie poked his cheek with his tongue and said, "Whether it is true or not, you can figure it out yourself."
He seemed unhappy. Lin Mian blinked his eyes. No way, he didn't really say something he shouldn't have said?!
He put his hand on his forehead and tried hard to recall, but he really couldn't recall anything about what happened after the meal.
How could that be? His roommates clearly said that he doesn't act crazy or swear when he's drunk, and he falls asleep as soon as he hits the bed without making any noise!
Did he lie to him?
Jiang Jie supported his head with his hands and watched his brainstorming with his eyes moving around. His face was full of worry that he might have gotten into trouble, and he felt much better.
He took the other person's hand away from his forehead and lowered his head. "Lin Xiaotu, you called me brother last night and held me tightly, saying you wanted to sleep with me."
The expression on Lin Mian's face changed from worry to horror, "I, I..."
Before he could even begin to explain, Jiang Jie pinched his cheeks, pouting his lips. "That's fine, but you piqued my interest, and then you just fell asleep. I can't put out this fire."
As he spoke, Lin Mian's gaze subconsciously looked down, but was blocked by the thin blanket covering their waists.
Jiang Yan pinched the man's face and lifted his head up. "What are you looking at?"
Lin Mian quickly closed his eyes and said, "I didn't see it!"
Jiang Yan smiled, and he was very happy to bully the little rabbit. He lowered his head and kissed the little rabbit on the pouting mouth, "Shouldn't you compensate me?"
Lin Mian opened his eyes, "I..."
Before she could finish her words, the man kissed her.
When he wanted to go deeper, Lin Mian pushed his chest and turned his face to the side, "No, I didn't brush my teeth..."
Jiang Jie didn't care what he was saying at all. He kissed the side of his neck, leaving a red "little strawberry".
The numb feeling made Lin Mian's waist soften, and someone grabbed his wrist and pressed it above his head, and he couldn't break free with just one hand.
"Brother Sae..."
He looked at the man above him pleadingly, completely unaware that his look of weakness made him want to bully him even more.
Jiang Jie raised his lips and was about to bend down, but his movements suddenly paused.
Lin Mian soon noticed it and moved his wrist, "Brother Jian, someone is coming downstairs!"
Jiang Jie wanted to let him go, but his expression was too excited at the moment, and he felt a little unhappy. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, so what? I don't think they dare to come up and disturb us."
Lin Mian's eyes widened, but what if those who came were people with special abilities? Then he would hear everything!
Seeing the rabbit's frightened look, Jiang Yan was finally satisfied. He smiled and lowered his head to kiss him on the cheek. "Okay, I'll let you go for now. Get up and wash up."
He loosened his grip. The wrist where he had grabbed her was already red. He rubbed it twice with his thumb. "Does it hurt?"
"I'm fine." Lin Mian shook his head repeatedly, worried that he would change his mind again, so he quickly pulled his wrist free, climbed out of bed, and ran to the bathroom without even bothering to put on his shoes.
Watching him escape, Jiang Yan smiled, got out of bed, walked to the window, opened the curtains, and let in a lot of sunlight.
On the first floor, Qian Wei sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, smoking a cigarette and waiting for someone.
He believed that with his psychic hearing ability, he could hear someone coming downstairs.
But the other party didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and there was still no sign of him after half an hour.
His face didn't look good, and the brother who came with him was even more unhappy.
"Boss, that Jiang guy is doing this on purpose! He's just leaving us hanging!"
Qian Wei leaned forward and put out the third cigarette in his hand, then glanced at him and said, "Be patient."
The man leaned back on the sofa in dissatisfaction. From yesterday until now, he really disliked that man. He really didn't know why their boss wanted to recruit such a troublemaker into the gang.
Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and was about to say something else, but then he heard footsteps on the stairs. He paused and pursed his lips.
Jiang Yan and Lin Mian walked down the stairs side by side, their pace neither hurried nor slow, without any urgency to make anyone wait.
With his hands in his pockets, he glanced at the two people sitting on the sofa, then turned his gaze to the one kneeling on the ground in the middle of the living room, his eyebrows slightly raised.
Lin Mian also noticed that person. He still remembered her. She had poured wine for the man during dinner yesterday. She was very beautiful.
But at this moment, he looked very embarrassed. Not only was there a wound and a slap mark on his face, but there were also bruises on his exposed arms and legs, as if he had been beaten by someone.
He frowned, not knowing what he was trying to do.
"Good morning, Brother Jiang. Did you sleep well last night?" Qian Wei raised his hand to greet them when he saw them coming down.
Jiang Yan walked over and passed by the handsome boy kneeling on the ground without looking away. He sat down casually on the sofa on the other side. "Except for the annoying rat that came in, it's not bad."
When he said this, the kneeling boy shuddered and lowered his head even lower.
"I know about this," Qian Wei glanced at him and said, "It's my fault for mismanaging things. I let someone get to Brother Jiang's place. Look, I've already taught him a lesson. I brought him here today to apologize to Brother Jiang. Why don't you get out of here!"
He shouted, and the young man crawled over to him, his face pale and he fell to the ground. "I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang. I was impulsive and overestimated my own abilities. I was wrong."
His beautiful eyes were filled with tears, which fell one by one when he looked up, sliding across the red slap marks, making him look fragile and adorable.
Jiang Jie sat on the sofa, looking down at him with an indifferent expression.
Lin Mian felt a little sorry for him, but he was at a loss as to what had happened. Didn't the other party just fail to toast him yesterday? It shouldn't be that serious.
Seeing Jiang Jie remained silent, Qian Wei rubbed his fingers together in confusion and said, "If Brother Jiang still isn't satisfied, then teach him a lesson!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the man sitting next to him stood up, took a whip from his waist, and strode forward.
"Mr. Jiang! Mr. Jiang, I really know I was wrong! Please save me!" The young man was frightened and crawled to his feet with his body huddled up, trying to pull his trouser legs.
Unfortunately, no matter how pitiful he was, he couldn't shake Jiang Jie's hard heart. He moved his legs to the side, avoiding the other's hand, and said with his side face: "Little rabbit, close your eyes."
Lin Mian had no idea what caused this chaos, and felt a little helpless, but when he heard his voice, he obediently closed his eyes.
The whip hit the boy's thin body, and his summer clothes could not withstand any damage. His skin was torn apart in an instant, and he screamed in pain.
Jiang Jie raised his hand and rubbed his ears, only to find it noisy.
Qian Wei looked up at him, but didn't see any emotion on his face. He even seemed a little impatient with this farce. He lowered his eyes, thinking that he was really a ruthless person.
As he was whipped, the boy's screams of pain weakened. It was impossible for an ordinary person to withstand the force of the whip swung by a person with special abilities. After just a few whips, he was unconscious.
The psychic who was beating people stopped, glanced at Jiang Jie who didn't care at all, and then turned back to look at his boss.
Qian Wei waved at him, signaling him to drag the man out first.
The living room became quiet, and Lin Mian tentatively opened his eyes. There was a small bloodstain on the marble floor in front of him.
He turned to look at Jiang Jie, who reached out and pinched his earlobe soothingly.
Qian Wei's eyes darted between the two of them. He was being asked to act out this cold-blooded yet gentle character all by himself, right? He dropped the lighter he was playing with and said, "Brother Jiang, you've finally gotten your revenge now, haven't you?"
Jiang Yan turned to look at him, "Mr. Qian, you're joking. Isn't it you who decides whether I can vent my anger or not?"
He did this here so early in the morning, apologizing and hitting people. He completely shirked the responsibility of sending people to test him, and at the same time, he did not forget to let people use a cruel trick to trick him... What a ridiculous farce.
"I don't understand what you're saying, Brother Jiang." Qian Wei tapped his fingers on his leg. "I'm just worried that my men might have annoyed you and made you unhappy."
Jiang Yan smiled and didn't respond to his question. He turned to look at Lin Mian and asked, "Are you hungry?"
Lin Mian met his gaze and nodded.
This wave of disregard clearly meant that he was leaving. Qian Wei clenched his hands on his legs, and felt that his temper was getting out of control.
At this moment, the man who had just left came back in, strode up to him, leaned closer, and whispered, "The people over there know we've brought people back."
Qian Wei looked up and saw the other party nodded with certainty. He collected his expression and stood up. "Brother Jiang, please go ahead. I just happened to have something to take care of."
After he finished speaking, he took his men away.
Lin Mian watched them leave before looking away and asked, "Who did they just say the person over there might be?"
"Mostly they are people who don't get along." Jiang Jie was not surprised. There were many people with special abilities gathered together, especially in the early days when they were the most impetuous, so it was impossible for there to be no friction.
Qian Wei wanted him to stay so much, most likely to keep him in check and balance so that he would not be at a disadvantage.
In a world where the strong prey on the weak, conflict is inevitable.
