Shen Yinan's gaze passed over the rose and fell on Xue Du's face.
The young man was as gentle and reserved as when they first met, but this time, beneath his gentleness lay an even hotter love.
Xue Du softened his tone and spoke his heart out, word by word:
"When I was little, I loved watching heroic movies because I felt those heroes could protect others and were brave and strong."
"I know our Nan Nan is very powerful, but please give me a chance to protect you and fulfill my heroism."
"Stay with me, okay?"
Under the other party's gentle gaze, Shen Yinan nodded firmly and affirmatively.
"good."
The boy took the initiative to open his arms and hugged him.
A long, gentle hug.
…
On the way back, Shen Yinan was still held on Xue Du’s lap in a face-to-face position.
Although the driver watched his nose and heart carefully when he got in the car, Shen Yinan was still a little uncomfortable.
Xue Du coaxed him and told him that he would be allowed to walk on his own once his foot healed, and only then did he let go of his shame a little.
The night scene flashed outside the window.
Xue Du rested his chin on the boy's neck, as if sniffing something, his nose rubbing against his delicate skin.
Ana Shen was a little tickled by the movement and shrank a little, but because he was held tightly, it was difficult for him to move.
You can only let the other party do what they want.
The young man pecked the tip of his nose, then pressed his cheek against the side of his face and bit his earlobe with almost imperceptible force...
Shen Yinan almost hallucinated that there was a big tail behind the other person, swaying and hugging.
Xue Du took a while to stop, as if he had found some fun game.
When I raised my head, the fingertips of the boy I was hugging had become weak.
Xue Du looked at his face and thought every part of it was cute, and he wanted to kiss it everywhere.
But I was afraid that if I wasn't careful, I would break it.
Xue Du hooked his arm around his waist, his tone suddenly becoming somewhat melancholic: "Do you really like me?"
"Of course..." Shen Yinan didn't know why the other party suddenly said this, and his heart was lifted again.
I was afraid that Xue Du would say something like "I didn't feel anything at all, let's forget about what happened today."
Xue Du kissed his cheek and said in a low voice with a hint of coaxing, "Then say it again, okay?"
"say what?"
"Like me."
Xue Du looked straight at the other person, Shen Yinan’s fingertips grasped the other person’s shirt, his face flushed so much that he dared not look at him, and tried to avoid it: “I’ve already said it in the morning…”
"I want to hear more."
I don’t know if it was Shen Yinan’s illusion, but I always felt that after I agreed just now, the other party was getting a little too far.
The thought was discarded in a second.
The boy's cheeks puffed out into a soft and easy-to-pinch curve. He closed his eyes, as if to cheer himself up.
After a while, he looked into Xue Du's eyes and confessed earnestly: "I like you."
Xue Du was slightly stunned.
The next second, I felt like there was someone buried in my chest.
It was too difficult for Shen Yinan to express his feelings directly, so he put his face against Xue Du’s heart and pretended nothing happened.
What is rare is that Xue Du did not pursue the victory.
The car happened to park in the garage at this moment.
Xue Du got out of the car first, then bent down and picked up Shen Yinan who was holding a rose.
In the bright light, from Shen Yinan’s perspective, he could clearly see… the usually calm young man, a bright red was slowly creeping up on the cold white earlobes of his ears.
…
After entering the room, Xue Du put the person on the sofa by the entrance.
He half-knelt beside Shen Yinan, changed his shoes, put his hands on his knees, and asked softly, "Do you want a hotter or colder bath tonight?"
Shen Yinan’s movement of fiddling with the petals suddenly stopped.
Her round eyes were wide open, making her look particularly cute.
The boy's scalp tingled: "I, I can wash it myself..."
Xue Du looked a little embarrassed: "Did you forget? The doctor said that the wound should not be exposed to water."
So... of course, you need help with something like taking a shower.
Shen Yinan’s fingertips trembled, and her thick, curled eyelashes drooped, trembling slightly.
He didn't say anything. Xue Du took the flowers very proactively and carried him upstairs to the bathroom.
The bathroom is spacious, brightly lit, and has a large round bathtub...
Shen Yinan watched Xue Du take off his coat, roll up his sleeves, and adjust the water temperature with his slender knuckles, his heartbeat getting faster and faster.
The already pink tips of the ears became increasingly hot and red.
He twisted his knuckles in confusion, and his right hand suddenly touched the watch on his left wrist.
The cold temperature suddenly made Shen Yinan’s face pale.
He almost forgot...
Forget the scars under this watch.
That was a trace of his attempt to escape from the world in his youth, and it was the ugly evidence of his not cherishing life.
Xue Du...will he dislike it?
He knew that Xue Du liked the way he looked and liked to touch his skin.
But if these scars were seen, would he not want to touch himself anymore?
Shen Yinan felt a little irritated and frightened.
He hated himself for always overthinking, but how could others accept something that he himself couldn't accept?
Shen Yinan thought for a moment, and finally just held the watch, lowered his eyes, and waited for Xue Du's action.
He thought, if Xue Du must take it off, if he wants to see... then...
But unexpectedly, Xue Du did not offer to help him wash. He just tested the water temperature, asked him to be careful and move slowly, and then left the bathroom in a gentlemanly manner.
Ana Shen exhaled.
I can’t tell whether I’m happy or sad.
After taking a slow shower, Shen Yinan opened the bathroom door and hopped out on one foot.
Xue Du was replying to a message. When he heard the noise, he immediately put down his phone, came over, picked up the person, and put him on the bed.
