Chapter 51 "I'm afraid you can't bear it."
The moment the car restarted, I felt a strong push from the back of the chair, and I left the resort at lightning speed and headed towards the highway out of the city.
Duan Zhuxian has always been a steady driver and never pursues speed. Jiang Yao once joked that he could drive a sports car like an old man.
But tonight, Duan Zhuxian changed his steady style and brought out the best performance of the car.
On the straight and deserted road, Jiang Yao's heart was beating wildly due to the speed of the car, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
But to be precise, his heart has never stopped beating since the moment he saw Duan Zhuxian get out of the car.
It's quite abnormal.
His mental quality is not that bad.
He's in good physical condition, if it weren't for the sudden heart attack...
Jiang Yao stared at the red fox figurine on the center console, thinking for a long time, and suddenly his heart was startled -
Could it be that he has fallen in love with Duan Zhuxian?
He vaguely remembered that there seemed to be a saying in psychology that when a person's heartbeat speeds up when he encounters danger, if another person happens to appear, it is easy for him to attribute the accelerated heartbeat reaction to the other person.
While queuing to cross the ETC, Duan Zhuxian wanted to ask Jiang Yao if he was thirsty, as there was hot drink in the thermal box. Turning around, he saw Jiang Yao lowering his head and hunching his back, looking like a thief. Four words were clearly visible on the partially covered screen of his mobile phone: Suspension Bridge Effect.
He swallowed the words back when they were on the tip of his tongue. Duan Zhuxian looked away calmly, a faint smile on his face.
A certain slow-witted guy finally crossed the barrier of "marriage" and broke through the wall of "brotherhood", and was willing to lift one precious foot to test the direction of love. Now he is a vigilant little fox and cannot be disturbed at all.
Halfway through the journey, when they arrived at the highway service area, Jiang Yao said, "Stop."
As soon as Duan Zhuxian parked the car, Jiang Yao unbuckled his seatbelt and got out. He walked around to the driver's seat and knocked on the window: "Let me drive."
Duan Zhuxian lowered the car window: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Yao frowned: "Stop talking nonsense, come down quickly."
Looking down from his direction, the pale blue under Duan Zhuxian's eyes became more obvious.
Although Duan Zhuxian's overall mental state seemed to be good, and he could even forcefully kiss someone three times, his illness had not yet fully healed, and there was always a vague aura of sickness around him, making even his originally tall and strong figure seem a little thin.
He watched all the way, and it was inevitable that he felt a little...
Heartbroken.
But he felt ashamed even to think about these two words and would never say them out loud!
Seeing that Jiang Yao had an impatient expression and a bit of evasion, Duan Zhuxian thought that Jiang Yao, a racing enthusiast, was just addicted to cars, or was not used to showing a weak side in front of his former "enemy", so he had to swap seats.
After leaving the service area, Duan Zhuxian was still a little worried: "I'll drive after we get off the highway."
"I'm not as fragile as you think." Jiang Yao said nonchalantly, "In a lighted environment, night blindness symptoms will disappear within a minute. It's been over an hour."
Duan Zhuxian paused slightly when he heard this. He didn't expect Jiang Yao to tell him directly about his night blindness. In the past, every time there was a clue, Jiang Yao would try his best to hide it and pretend nothing happened, for fear that he would find out.
He could understand that a proud person like Jiang Yao would definitely not want to expose his weaknesses in front of someone he disliked.
"I was kidnapped when I was a kid," Jiang Yao suddenly added, "I escaped from the factory once and was almost there, but I ran out of energy and was caught again. They threw me into a shipping container. Maybe it's because I hadn't seen the light for two days and two nights, so I became dependent on it."
Duan Zhuxian had heard these things from Jiang Chen before, but when he heard them from Jiang Yao's mouth, his heart still skipped a beat.
When Jiang Chen mentioned this incident, although his face was calm, his tone was full of fear. When Jiang Yao told his story, only calmness remained.
"Then the police surrounded the factory and sent a negotiator in to negotiate. I pretended to faint from a stomachache. The negotiator asked to confirm my condition up close. He then took the opportunity to tell me about the situation outside and asked for my cooperation." Jiang Yao paused for a moment and smiled. "I was only six years old at the time. If it were any other child, they would have gone two days without food, water, or sleep. How could they have the courage to fight the kidnappers and work with the police? I think I'm pretty good, don't you think?"
The clean light inside the car illuminated Jiang Yao's face, and his bright and sharp eyes looked forward. He was bold, confident, and unyielding, just like when they first met at the age of fifteen.
Duan Zhuxian stared at him for a long time and nodded: "Well, you are very good."
But he hoped Jiang Yao wouldn't be so unwilling to give in.
It was not until this moment that he could truly see what kind of transparent and lonely soul was hidden behind the dazzling red flame-like color, and sometimes he longed for someone to walk towards him unwaveringly when he needed him.
After telling this to Duan Zhuxian, Jiang Yao surprisingly had no psychological barriers.
After all, the only person who has seen him at his most glorious and at his most miserable is Duan Zhuxian.
The journey home was very smooth. Walking into the familiar courtyard that was as bright as day, and looking at Duan Zhuxian beside him, Jiang Yao felt at ease for no reason.
But it's just too stable, a bit unreal.
He couldn't help but ruin the atmosphere: "Duan Zhuxian, I've told you my biggest weakness. If you want to mess with me and want to mess with me, just lure me to a dark place. I'll definitely let you do whatever you want and won't be able to fight back at all."
Duan Zhuxian: "Yes, I've got it."
?
Jiang Yao suddenly stopped.
Does this bastard really intend to use his fear of the dark to deal with him in the future?
Jiang Yao glared at the figure walking in front of him in frustration, but was met with Duan Zhuxian's gentle gaze as he turned around.
"I can't guarantee that you will never fall into a dark situation like today in the future."
Duan Zhuxian said this and walked back to him.
"But no matter when, I will find you and take you home."
Although it was bright all around, Jiang Yao suddenly felt dizzy and even had an illusion that from now on, every inch of darkness had a backing and he no longer had to bear it alone.
*
After entering the house, Duan Zhuxian invited Jiang Yao to take a bath next door and stay overnight.
Jiang Yao thought for a moment and agreed to the other party's request with a nonchalant attitude.
When I was halfway through washing, Duan Zhuxian pushed the door open and walked in.
The two came out of the bathroom still kissing, their bodies covered with water droplets, both wearing only bath towels. The room was kept at a constant temperature of 25 degrees, but because their skin was slightly red from the steam, they didn't feel cold at all.
This time, Jiang Yao took the initiative to kiss her. Compared with Duan Zhuxian's gradual approach, his kiss seemed disorganized, but also aggressive and unyielding.
Walking barefoot on the thick carpet, he pushed Duan Zhuxian into the quilt, and without waiting for him to get up, he leaned over and continued to kiss him, as if he wanted to get back all the debts for the three ambushes in the suburbs.
Duan Zhuxian maintained a non-resistance attitude from beginning to end. Only when Jiang Yao, breathless, let him go did he say calmly, "What should I do? There's a fire."
The voice was restrained and hoarse.
Jiang Yao was stunned for a moment, and realized that he was about to cross the line.
Acting faster than his brain, he turned over and got out of bed. Just as he was about to retreat urgently, someone grabbed his waist from behind and pulled him into his arms. His back, which was covered with hot sweat, pressed against the equally hot chest.
In this kind of matter, Jiang Yao is just a little fox, pure, wild and cunning. He only dares to tease and runs away when he sees that the situation is not right.
Duan Zhuxian never tolerated his irresponsible behavior.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Yao asked angrily.
"Put out the fire." Duan Zhuxian said.
Jiang Yao's eyes widened: "Aren't you still sick?"
"Being sick doesn't affect this function. If you don't believe me, try it yourself."
Duan Zhuxian whispered in Jiang Yao's ear, and with a little force, he pressed the arm across his stomach in front of him.
After being forced to confirm the situation, Jiang Yao's heart began to pound. He said in astonishment, "Duan Zhuxian, are you really the reincarnation of a beast?"
*
I've been busy preparing for the wedding, and coupled with the cold war for more than half a month, I haven't done it for a long time, so everything feels a bit awkward.
After struggling for a while, it is still in the initial stage.
Jiang Yao blushed and asked, "Are you able to do this?"
Duan Zhuxian had a hard time enduring it. Being questioned by Jiang Yao like this, he almost stopped his preparations and went into battle with real guns and swords.
But reason prevailed, and he lowered his voice and coaxed softly, "Yaoyao, you're too tense. I'm afraid you can't bear it."
