About Reality (3)
Xu Youling almost fell when he entered the house. As soon as he inserted the key into the lock and turned around, Pei Zhi's hand suddenly wrapped around his waist from the front.
Xu Youling should have been used to any form of sudden attack from Pei Zhi, but this time he was completely unprepared. Because when Pei Zhi followed him upstairs, he was obviously very cooperative and listened to him talk about some small things about living together in the future. He seemed very kind.
So he turned back with the innocent intention of "introducing his home".
Pei Zhi pushed the person into the house, stepped in himself, hooked his arm around the person's waist and brought him back, then kissed him.
When Xu Youling was pushed, he thought he was going to fall on his head, but Pei Zhi seemed to have deliberately delayed the time when he rescued him. He was extremely surprised, so he was clearly standing at the door of his own house, but he had an intuition that he had just walked around the edge of a cliff.
My heartbeat suddenly quickened, pounding against my chest.
At this time, Xu Youling was still able to think: Fortunately, Pei Zhi probably didn't hear it, otherwise he would be so excited.
Pei Zhi keenly noticed that Xu Youling was distracted, and feeling dissatisfied, he pinched the flesh on his waist lightly, not too hard. Their bodies were almost interlocked, and he separated slightly, stared at him for a while, then tilted his head and bit him hard.
Before Xu Youling could catch her breath, she was kissed again. Pei Zhi pushed her to the entrance little by little under his natural movements. He held her wrist and kissed her closely and closely. She immediately felt that the atmosphere became a little wrong.
"Close the door!" Finally getting a chance to catch his breath, Xu Youling spoke immediately, his voice trembling.
Pei Zhi stared at his lips for a while as if he was reluctant to leave. Just when Xu Youling thought that he would close the door obediently and leave her, who was kissed until her hands and feet were weak, at least to rest at the entrance, Pei Zhi put his arm around her, raised his forearm, and actually picked up Xu Youling with one hand, with his toes tapping the ground tremblingly.
"Pei Zhi, put me down, don't...close the door first!"
The height was truly delicate: below was the stable ground, and above was the sturdy arm. Yet, this position was particularly unsettling, as if it were supported only by the friction of the fabric. Pei Zhi uttered a "tsk," but didn't grant Xu Youling's wish. Instead, he carried him under his arm and strode towards closing the door.
"I know, but why would anyone else see it?" He slammed the door handle shut.
After just a few steps, Xu Youling was afraid that he would fall, so he could only cling to Pei Zhi's shoulders with difficulty, like a little koala. Pei Zhi finally took pity and lifted his butt up to a stable position.
"That position just now was better." Pei Zhi walked towards the bedroom, his eyes sweeping around the small area where Xu Youling's body was pressed tightly against his, almost flat, "...just right."
"What is it that happens...Don't talk nonsense, Pei Zhi!"
Xu Youling immediately began to protest, punching and kicking, probably knowing that he wouldn't fall any further this time and would be held steady by Pei Zhi no matter what. His movements were violent, but not above the level of flirting, so Pei Zhi let him go.
Only after the blush on Xu Youling's face faded a little did Pei Zhi push her onto the bed, kneeling down smoothly and pressing her tightly under him. Xu Youling's calves suddenly bent up, as if a trigger button had been touched.
"You won't let me say it? You won't let me say it even though you're like this?"
In the end, Pei Zhi did not do what he planned when he glanced at Xu Youling's thighs and his crotch. Instead, he just lay on the bed where Xu Youling had not slept for a long time, and held her in his arms, exchanging kisses, caresses and heat.
When it was over, Xu Youling was breathing heavily and her eyes were a little empty. Pei Zhi narrowed his eyes and pulled her to the pillow, half covering her waist with his hands, and softened his movements.
Xu Youling was so tired that he couldn't speak, and his head felt dizzy, as if he had just had a sweet and physically demanding dream. It wasn't because of anything else...it was mainly because Pei Zhi needed his full attention. If Xu Youling showed any resistance for a short time due to fatigue or other reasons, Pei Zhi would immediately ask, "Are you feeling uncomfortable? Can I be gentler?"
Only at times like these would Pei Zhi look a bit like the spiritual German Shepherd from his other world: fierce and majestic when he sat upright, yet terrifying when he lowered his paws, rested his muzzle on them, and stared at people. At times like these, Xu Youling would always accidentally indulge him too much.
"Go take a shower?" Pei Zhi rubbed his waist twice.
"I don't want to go... I'm too lazy to move." Xu Youling was very frank.
Pei Zhi first showed a more honest expression, not interpreting Xu Youling's wilting expression as excessive demands on his part. After thinking for a moment, he tentatively said, "Shall I carry you?"
"...Alright."
"Wash while holding me?"
"...Well, I suddenly feel stronger."
"How strange! It's truly magical." Xu Youling, sitting up, immediately added, "Hey, how about we arrange a schedule for this in the future? Try not to do it more than three times a week, what do you think?"
Before Pei Zhi could react, Xu Youling jumped out of bed and ran into the bathroom.
"Is this true?" Pei Zhi chased after him and shouted through the door, "Are you sure?"
"Sure." Xu Youling tried hard to make his voice drown out the sound of water.
"Then you won't hug me when we go to sleep at night? You won't kiss me when I wake up in the morning?" Pei Zhi pressed on, "Think about it again?"
The shower curtain was pulled open with a swish, revealing a face that was red from the hot water. Xu Youling pursed his lips and hummed for a long time, "Let's take a look..."
Since Xu Youling said so, then when it’s time to go to bed at night... Pei Zhi will still win.
Xu Youling didn't feel that he was living a second life. After all, he only stayed in Pei Zhi's world for less than a year, and although the original owner's life had some overlap with his own, it was not completely similar.
But even so, when I occasionally think of those critical moments, my heart still starts pounding like a drum.
Therefore, I feel that these peaceful, gentle and fragmented moments, the time spent with Pei Zhi are so precious, and every bit of them is worth picking up and keeping.
This is obviously also true for Pei Zhi.
The sentry who used to rush to his death without hesitation at the command of the White Tower was finally able to live with his lover in a peaceful environment. Although after his unreasonable new first time, his lover was so embarrassed that she held his hand in her pajamas and introduced him to the small home that did not exist before.
"Before... I would read books and watch TV here, or something like that. I would stay here after get off work."
"The refrigerator! There's a lot of instant food..."
“There’s also a small balcony… The flowers haven’t wilted yet, it’s magical.”
Although Pei Zhi felt that Xu Youling looked a little lonely as she was curled up on the sofa alone, with half of her face slightly illuminated by the fluorescent light of the TV.
Although Pei Zhi felt that eating fast food all the time was not a good idea.
Although Pei Zhi thinks that succulents can definitely not be considered flowers.
But the way Xu Youling introduced everything to him one by one was really cute, like she had something really good hidden, but was afraid that he wouldn't like it, so she acted shy. Sometimes she would suddenly think of something else while talking, so she would drag Pei Zhi to see what was there.
So cute.
Pei Zhi followed Xu Youling around in circles in the house, and his mind involuntarily turned to things he shouldn't think about. So when Xu Youling finally felt that he had introduced everything and said with squinted eyes, "Isn't it a little small?", Pei Zhi couldn't help but blurt out "Just right."
"What do you mean by just right?" Xu Youling was confused.
"It's just right to explore a few more new scenes," Pei Zhi thought. "If there are more, it won't be interesting anymore."
But if he really said it, Xu Youling would probably glare at him for a long time. Pei Zhi began to feel grateful that the telepathic connection between them as sentinel and guide had disappeared, and explained calmly, "The two of us are just right for each other."
Xu Youling then smiled with his eyes curved, completely unaware of what was waiting for him.
Pei Zhi began to like picking up Xu Youling from get off work and taking walks with her.
In the real world, he was a serving NCO on a moderate leave, which roughly matched the situation in that world. Picking up Xu Youling from work and accompanying her for a walk and dinner were distinctly separate events, and Pei Zhi thoroughly enjoyed each of these three periods.
When he picked up Xu Youling from work, he recalled how he had recently gone to the pet store to look for her after being tricked by her, and had watched her panicked face through the glass as she woke up. But now, his expression had become one of surprise and joy, and the way he took the initiative to get close to her, unceremoniously shoving the canvas bag into his hands, was unexpectedly adorable.
He felt even better when eating with Xu Youling. Seeing Xu Youling's complexion getting rosier day by day, and complaining every day that he had gained weight, Pei Zhi always lost when playing rock-paper-scissors to decide who would wash the dishes. But Xu Youling would stay in the kitchen for a while without saying anything, and then hug Pei Zhi from behind, which was a perfect consolation prize for the loser.
When he took walks with Xu Youling... well, he didn't really understand why Xu Youling had this habit. At first, he'd always walked too fast, forcing Xu Youling to scramble to catch up whenever he stopped. He kept the old habit, feeling that any stops other than to wait for Xu Youling were unnecessary, while Xu Youling kept stopping to look at the lingering clouds in the sunset, at the bicycles parked side by side on the sidewalk.
So Pei Zhi forced himself to walk in the same rhythm as Xu Youling, left and right, stepping on the same tiles as him, sharing the same heartbeat. At this moment, he felt that he understood Xu Youling more, and the anxiety that he would never be able to fully understand Xu Youling disappeared gently in the evening breeze.
When Xu Youling was going home, he was a little tired and was led by Pei Zhi. The sensor light in the corridor was dim, and Xu Youling stopped after taking two steps and asked Pei Zhi to carry him up.
Pei Zhi glanced back at him with amusement, and seeing his face flush, he finally squatted down and motioned for him to come up. Xu Youling rushed forward, hooking his arms around his neck. He thought of some things that happened before, about how their fates had intertwined, how lucky they had been to this day, until he could finally throw himself on Pei Zhi's back so brazenly, which made Pei Zhi look back again.
"Pei Zhi." Xu Youling smiled and leaned over to his ear, "I love you so much."
There was only one floor left on the road to home. Pei Zhi kept moving, continuing to support Xu Youling's thighs and move them steadily upwards until he reached the door of the house. He stopped and laughed softly.
"I love you too." He imitated Xu Youling's tone, "What should I do?"
