Chapter 56 "I am my first love."
Initially, Duan Zhuxian thought Jiang Yao was angry with him for nearly ten years because of the love letter she hadn't sent. He had no way of refutation and willingly accepted the bitter consequences.
Later, Jiang Yao told him that the love letter was nothing at all. The thorn in his heart was his cold attitude and the back of him who didn't even turn around. He couldn't clear himself from the blame and took the blame for the crime.
At this moment, he learned that he actually had a "rival in love" with Jiang Yao, and he felt wronged.
An injustice that will be remembered forever.
He felt so wronged that he wanted to hold Jiang Yao in his arms and bully him to vent his anger.
The shock on Jiang Yao's face was no less than Duan Zhuxian's. The moment the energy that had been suppressed all night suddenly relaxed, his brain was emptied for a few seconds, and then filled with some overwhelming possibility that subverted his cognition, and his chest kept heaving.
His eyes dropped downwards, as if he was analyzing what he had just heard. His throat was dry from rolling up and down, and was only stopped by the difficult vibration of his vocal cords: "What do you mean? Don't you like Chen Tang?"
Duan Zhuxian took a few steps towards Jiang Yao, stopped in front of him, and exhaled very slowly before he suppressed the urge to hold him in his arms.
"Jiang Yao, listen carefully, I have never liked Chen Tang."
Each word was pronounced with decisiveness and force.
Facing Duan Zhuxian's displeased gaze, Jiang Yao raised his head slightly, a hint of shock hidden in the corners of his eyes. He asked unconvincedly, "In our senior year of high school, when you confiscated my love letter, I told you that you liked him too. Why didn't you refute me?"
No rebuttal?
Duan Zhuxian frowned slightly.
He doesn't remember very clearly.
But he must have opened his mouth and spoken.
In his memory, that moment was very chaotic, his heart was beating noisily, the wind and snow were howling, and countless thoughts were clamoring in his heart. He didn't know what the words that blurted out were, but he had walked too far away, and Jiang Yao didn't hear it at a distance of more than ten meters.
"I was furious and in a hurry to leave." Duan Zhuxian paused and took a step closer to Jiang Yao. "Besides, I didn't even nod. Why do you accuse me of having a crush on someone else? Even if there was a misunderstanding at the time, after calming down, you can still see that my attitude towards Chen Tang is no different from that towards other friends. How can you think that I like him? Do you understand what love is?"
Duan Zhuxian's face was no longer calm, but visibly angry. His cold lips had never carried any surging emotions before, but he spoke so many words at once, and every word hit people's heart.
Jiang Yao was stunned.
But no matter how confused he was, after being reminded by Duan Zhuxian, he suddenly realized that apart from some small details that he had guessed and interpreted privately, there seemed to be no strong evidence to prove that Duan Zhuxian had feelings for Shen Tang beyond friendship.
In fact, in his heart, all suspicions stemmed from Duan Zhuxian's ambiguous attitude, and all subsequent analysis and judgment were based on what he believed to be an established fact: "Duan Zhuxian likes Chen Tang."
Jiang Yao hesitated and said, "Then you applied to Q University and went to study in North America, wasn't it really for Chen Tang?"
It turns out that this is what Jiang Yao meant when he said "chasing after Shen Tang" on the wedding night.
Duan Zhuxian suddenly understood.
At that time, his heart was completely focused on Jiang Yao, so he didn't care about irrelevant people, and he never thought that there would be such a big misunderstanding.
Under the soft light of the bedroom, Jiang Yao put aside all his pride and arrogance, like a helpless little animal, with his eyes a little red.
Duan Zhuxian felt distressed.
But no coaxing.
He only explained in a deep voice: "It's not for him. I told you before, it's all a coincidence, you just didn't believe it."
"Who told you that your credibility with me is too low?" Jiang Yao curled his lips a little guiltily, then raised his eyelids and asked, "Since you never liked Chen Tang, why did you abandon such an important dinner and rush to the police station?"
Duan Zhuxian's forehead throbbed, and he said helplessly, "Because they sent out all the people I like."
Seeing Jiang Yao's stunned look, Duan Zhuxian changed his explanation to a more straightforward way: "I thought you had a fight with someone."
Jiang Yao suddenly realized that the person Duan Zhuxian was concerned about on the phone was him.
He was silent for a moment, as if he didn't feel anything, and continued to ask: "Then why didn't you let Shen Tang and I walk together tonight? Don't think I didn't notice your little tricks. You even rushed to do it with the driver."
Duan Zhuxian was speechless and then sighed.
Jiang Yao is a fool and needs to be coaxed.
Duan Zhuxian pressed his solar plexus, reached out and rubbed the man in front of him into his arms, and gently stroked the short hair on the back of his neck with his palm: "I am a normal person, without any special fetishes. Of course I feel uncomfortable seeing my wife and his former secret crush getting too close."
Jiang Yao said "Oh", he had even forgotten about it.
In Duan Zhuxian's eyes, he was not an innocent person either.
He buried his face in Duan Zhuxian's shoulder and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Duan Zhuxian asked, "Any more questions?"
Jiang Yao said: "Not for now."
"Then you believe that I have never liked Chen Tang?"
"Well, a beast like you who wants to sleep with everyone you like can't possibly endure for more than ten years without taking any action."
In a direction that Jiang Yao couldn't see, Duan Zhuxian kissed the top of Jiang Yao's head and smiled bitterly.
"Oh, right." Jiang Yao suddenly said, "Why did you call me on the way home just now? Your car was right behind me. What was going on? Why couldn't you talk about it when you got home?"
"Nothing, I just suddenly missed you."
grass.
How could this person be so capable?
Jiang Yao felt embarrassed again.
They hugged each other for a long time. When they separated, Jiang Yao remembered that Duan Zhuxian was just about to take a shower and had taken off half of his clothes.
The man in front of me had his shirt wide open and his belt hanging loosely around his waist. The next step was to take his bird for a walk.
Jiang Yao was so angry that he took two steps back to cover up his anger. He couldn't help but say, "If there was still a crime of hooliganism nowadays, you would be the first one to be arrested."
Duan Zhuxian approached him again, put his wrists together, and stretched them out in front of him: "I surrender myself. Please arrest me, Officer Jiang."
Aroused by the deep voice, Jiang Yao felt a surge of physiological heat throughout his body.
Where did Duan Zhuxian learn his magic, and how could he be so alluring?
But Jiang Yao became stubborn and endured it, refusing to take the bait.
So Duan Zhuxian was charged with another crime of assaulting a police officer, and he directly carried the police officer into the bathroom.
*
The bathtub was already filled with water. Duan Zhuxian pulled the person out and put him into the slowly flowing hot water, and followed up with a series of gentle and intense kisses.
He had been hurt by Jiang Yao's sharpness before, so whenever Jiang Yao was sad, he always didn't know what to do. He used many wrong methods and ended up pushing her further and further away.
Now that he had found her again, he finally understood that Jiang Yao was the most soft-hearted person in the world towards him and easier to coax than anyone else.
As the body temperatures blended, the surrounding air and mist gradually became thicker.
Before finishing, Duan Zhuxian pulled the man out of the bathtub and served him once.
Jiang Yao was dazed when Duan Zhuxian carried him to the bed and tucked him into the quilt. He suddenly felt a heat in his ears and asked a question.
"Jiang Yao, are we in a relationship now?"
Jiang Yao thought for a moment and said, "I think so."
He had never been in a relationship, so he didn't know what it was like, but he couldn't think of a second kind of relationship where he would be jealous of the other person over and over again.
Duan Zhuxian chuckled: "I feel relieved when you say that."
"Duan Zhuxian, I really hated you in the past. I wanted to cut you into pieces."
Jiang Yao said sullenly, and this short sentence disturbed Duan Zhuxian's heartstrings, and the sound of the piano in his chest was a little bitter.
Then, he stretched out one leg and wrapped it around Duan Zhuxian's leg, his body showing an oppressive angle. He changed the subject and plucked Duan Zhuxian's heartstrings in another direction: "But since I have decided on you, I will not look at anyone else from now on. Even if my love is not grand enough or not experienced enough, I will only be with you, so you are not allowed to like others. If I find out that you have fallen in love with someone else-"
Jiang Yao paused. Since his right hand was held by Duan Zhuxian, he raised his left hand, clenched it, and waved it in front of Duan Zhuxian: "Do you see this?"
Duan Zhuxian suppressed his frantic heartbeat and raised his eyebrows: "Wedding ring?"
"I'm talking about fists!" Jiang Yao rolled his eyes. "Unless you're a professional, no one can last more than three hits."
Duan Zhuxian: "Where to hit?"
"Hit wherever you're cheating, like here." Jiang Yao tapped Duan Zhuxian's chest with his fist, "Or here..."
Jiang Yao raised his leg and pushed lightly, hitting something.
丨A little hard.
?
He didn't believe it and crushed it with his knees again.
Duan Zhuxian used his legs to hold Jiang Yao's knees: "Stop it, it's really hard to bear."
Jiang Yao widened his eyes. Could this man really be a beast?
He was speaking from the heart, and Duan Zhuxian secretly felt happy. It seemed that his revealing of his true feelings had become a catalyst, right?
Duan Zhuxian stared at the blush on Jiang Yao's face, a smile on his lips, and said calmly: "If one day it doesn't like you anymore, it won't need your fist at all."
He grabbed Jiang Yao's clenched left hand, spread his fingers, and pressed it hard against his chest: "Because that means that the things inside can no longer do anything. You might consider using your fist to help me perform CPR."
Duan Zhuxian spoke slowly, without using a very deep tone, as if "liking Jiang Yao" was the norm in his life, as simple as breathing and drinking water.
Jiang Yao's heart was pounding.
Someone had only liked him for less than three months, but the vows she made gave off a feeling of long-lasting love.
Especially like the scumbag in TV dramas.
But he was moved just like the idiots who were cheated on in TV dramas.
"Everyone can say nice things." Jiang Yao huddled under the quilt, hiding half of his ear. "But don't like me too much. I don't know how to repay you. I might end up in a panic and helpless."
Duan Zhuxian hummed, and whispered to Ban Yihong'er: "Yaoyao, I am your first love."
"I understand." Jiang Yao said, and buried the remaining half of his ear.
"Then do you like me a little more?" Duan Zhuxian asked.
But this time there was no response.
Jiang Yao buried his entire head in the quilt, his face pressed against his chest, and seemed to have fallen asleep.
Duan Zhuxian waited for a long time, so long that he was also overwhelmed by sleepiness.
Just before he closed his eyes, a word slipped into his ear through the cover of the night.
"have."
