Chapter 248 Early Morning
After finishing a satisfying meal, Qi Gu leaned back in his chair, put his palms on his overstuffed belly and rubbed it slowly from time to time, trying to digest the food. His expression was rare and relaxed, revealing the posture of a satisfied little animal, which seemed particularly homely compared to his usual cold expression.
...It's like the kind of expression he would only show in front of someone very close to him.
Thinking of this, Lin Hanzhi's lips curled up, and she slowly leaned over, her palm naturally and gently falling on Qi Gu's lower abdomen.
Qi Gu looked up at him.
Lin Hanzhi said confidently: "I'll rub it for you."
After what happened in the bathtub, Qi Gu was still somewhat sensitive to Lin Hanzhi's direct touch on his lower abdomen, so he subconsciously shrank back. However, facing Lin Hanzhi's aggrieved look, he gave up and moved his hand away, as if to indulge himself helplessly: "You come on."
Lin Hanzhi has always had one trick up his sleeve when it comes to Qi Gu.
Qi Gu was a little unnatural at first. After all, it was his first time to fall in love and the first time someone touched his belly. But gradually, as Lin Hanzhi's slow, gentle and just the right amount of touch became more and more gentle, he adapted well. His head slowly turned towards Lin Hanzhi, and was then caught by Lin Hanzhi's shoulder, who was very good at taking advantage of opportunities.
The two of them sat for a long time under the warm orange light of the dining table, with Qi Gu's head resting on Lin Hanzhi's shoulder and Lin Hanzhi rubbing his belly.
The sound of waves in the distance comes slowly, like a soothing music, making people naturally enjoy the warm moment, and wish that the sound of waves could last forever.
They could just lean on each other like this, not having to think about anything more, just enjoying the moment.
In such an atmosphere, the two people's voices couldn't help but become a little sticky. The topics varied and they could talk about anything, but no one took the initiative to mention the matter of visiting the fortune teller tomorrow.
Qi Gu instinctively sensed an evasive mentality from Lin Hanzhi. When people encounter problems that are difficult to solve or difficult to accept, their subconscious reaction is to want to avoid them. This is a very common thing.
Lin Hanzhi actually had no way to avoid it. No matter what he thought in his heart, as soon as the sun rose tomorrow morning, he had to show up to investigate the ins and outs of the matter and uncover the purpose of the deployment that the Lin family had left in Haigong Temple.
He has always been a person who is driven by destiny.
Apart from falling in love with Qi Gu, this was the only special thing, or change, in his ending which seemed to have been written long ago.
Qi Gu could understand Lin Hanzhi's feelings, so he didn't mention it at this moment and just indulged him in his brief escape.
The two of them sat at the dining table until the early morning. Qi Gu no longer felt full, but Lin Hanzhi kept his palm on his warm skin, his movements gentle and affectionate.
Qi Gu did not push him away and let him stay close to him until he began to feel sleepy and tears of rationality welled up in the corners of his eyes.
The washbasin in the hotel was large enough for two people to wash together. When Qi Gu raised his head with mint toothpaste foam on the corners of his mouth, he saw Lin Hanzhi in the mirror who looked almost the same as himself. He couldn't help but think in his mind that this scene... was a bit like the married life in a TV drama.
Those are the last few scenes in a TV show that have a perfect ending, used to express the protagonist's perfect love.
Lin Hanzhi seemed to feel the same way. In short, he couldn't help but kiss Qi Gu's lips in front of the huge mirror after they both finished washing up.

In the darkness, they lay side by side on the soft big bed again. Both of them were a little restrained, unable to relax and restrict their postures, while their minds couldn't help but recall those beautiful scenes.
Tomorrow... I have to go out tomorrow.
Lin Hanzhi suppressed the discordant thoughts in her mind, and moved her upper body a little closer to Qi Gu. Her eyes were sparkling, and her tone was deliberately low and sticky: "I want to hold you while sleeping."
Qi Gu did not respond in the darkness. Lin Hanzhi was about to give up, but she felt warm fingertips falling on her wrist. She pinched it as if to confirm, and then grabbed his wrist and moved it from its original position to the thinnest part of Qi Gu's waist.
Qi Gu's breath was so close, Lin Hanzhi's fingertips slowly settled down, and placed them on his waist, listening to his gentle tone: "Go to sleep, good night."
Lin Hanzhi wanted to push the issue further: "Can we kiss each other before we go to sleep?"
Qi Gu: “…”
He laughed, raised his body, leaned over and groped to kiss Lin Hanzhi's smooth forehead, his warm breath sprayed on that skin, helplessly and dotingly: "Can we sleep now?"
"It's a courtesy to return the favor." Lin Hanzhi said as she suddenly grabbed Qi Gu's waist and pulled him down. Her lips pressed against his and she gave him a kiss as soft as a cloud. "Good night."
Qi Gu's breathing became heavier, but Lin Hanzhi released the force that was restraining his waist at this moment, and just put his wrists loosely on his waist with his five fingers tightly pressed against his waist.
In the darkness, their breaths seemed to be entangled and kissing each other, blending madly, but their bodies were just hugging each other face to face, falling into a minty dream together.
This was a very deep sleep that Lin Hanzhi had rarely experienced. Even when she woke up, she still felt drowsy as if she was in a dream.
The moment he regained consciousness, the first thing he felt was the warmth of the person in his arms. His low body temperature was warmed up by Qi Gu in his arms, as if he was hugging a stove. He subconsciously hugged Qi Gu tighter, but quickly realized that Qi Gu might not be comfortable being hugged so tightly. Just as he was about to let go, he felt Qi Gu moving in his arms, but not trying to escape in resistance, but burying his cheek deeper into his chest.
Lin Hanzhi thought Qi Gu had woken up, so she looked at the person in her arms in the dim light that was mostly blocked by the blackout curtains, and found that Qi Gu's eyes were closed, his expression was calm, and he was still asleep.
It seemed as if he felt safe and comfortable in Lin Hanzhi's arms, and he was subconsciously longing to hug and merge with Lin Hanzhi, as if they were one.
The moment he realized this, Lin Hanzhi felt as if something even warmer was ironing his heart, making it hot and full of vitality. His heart was like an abandoned bird's nest that had been empty for a long time, and suddenly a little bird moved in. It chirped and yelled, and its beautiful feathers fluttered as if to show off, just as lively as before.
Never in his life had he felt more alive than at this moment.
It turns out that pain doesn't make people feel alive, only love can.
In the dim light of the day, Lin Hanzhi kissed Qi Gu's calm eyebrows and eyes over and over again with her eyes, without moving her body at all, for fear of disturbing his good sleep.
After a long time, he fell into a deep sleep with a huge sense of satisfaction born in his chest. In his dream, the corners of his mouth were still raised. Holding Qi Gu seemed like holding everything, happy and satisfied.
