When Li Yu'an came out of the master bedroom bathroom, his head was still a little dazed by the heat. He
was clearly determined to go home, so why did he uncontrollably agree to let Yan Cen stay overnight?
The sound of footsteps came from behind him.
Yan Cen, who had settled the soybeans, walked in and put his arm around Li Yu'an's waist, "Why are you standing here instead of going in?"
Li Yu'an turned around, "I..."
Yan Cen pushed him gently, "Do the spare clothes I bought for you fit?"
Li Yu'an replied softly, "Yeah."
"I told you, I won't get your size wrong." Yan Cen said with a smile and took the initiative to lift the quilt on the bed, "Come up quickly, you're afraid of the cold after just taking a shower."
Li Yu'an looked at the thin quilt on the bed and felt an indescribable nervousness, "How about I sleep..."
"Where are you going to sleep?"
Yan Cen walked straight towards him and simply picked Heng up without further ado.
The sudden emptiness made Li Yu'an instinctively exclaim, "Hey, you..."
"There is a spare quilt at home, but I don't plan to use it for the time being." Yan Cen did not lie.
He put Li Yu'an steadily on the bed, leaned over and gently rubbed his nose, "Mr. Li, will you make do with me tonight? Cover the same quilt with me?"
A trace of warm breath condensed on the tip of his nose, carrying the same fragrance after each other's shower.
Li Yu'an thought of the crossing of the line last night, and hesitantly said, "Then you can't, you can't do that tonight."
Yan Cen asked knowingly, "What?"
Li Yu'an groaned and demanded, "Don't bother me, I don't want to be late for work tomorrow again."
"Oh?" Yan Cen kissed his lips lightly, "Then when you do 'that kind of thing' in the future, shouldn't you ask for leave?"
"..."
Li Yu'an understood the true meaning of 'that kind of thing', and his cheeks flushed.
He pushed Yan Cen away with all his strength, and as quickly as possible, he lay down on his side, covered himself with the quilt, closed his eyes, pretended to be asleep, and said nothing.
Yan Cen had already gotten used to Li Yu'an's occasional "rabbit behavior", so he readjusted his posture and turned off the light.
The room fell into darkness.
Li Yu'an felt the quilt behind him being lifted, and when he was distracted, a familiar and warm embrace came up to him, "Isn't it uncomfortable to lie down like this for a long time?"
The slightly cool lips brushed past his ears, and rolled up a burst of almost weird heat.
Li Yu'an shrank his neck sensitively, "Fortunately, I don't feel it when I fall asleep."
Yan Cen asked again, "Are you going to sleep now?"
Li Yu'an felt the arm locked on his waist, and his heartbeat quickened.
Even though they have confirmed their relationship, and even though they have been together quite a few times -
in such a close distance and in a situation where it is very easy for them to spark a spark, he is still too nervous to move.
Li Yu'an exhaled slowly, "No."
Who can sleep in this situation?
Yan Cen hesitated and did not take any further action, only asking, "Then turn around, let's chat? When you are sleepy, you can sleep in your usual position?"
Li Yu'an's inner hesitation was only a moment, and he turned around obediently.
Yan Cen laughed softly, "Can you see me clearly?"
Li Yu'an replied, "Not very clearly."
His eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, but he could only see a little bit of a fine outline in the dim light, and even so, it was already enough to be a shrew.
"Would it be more relaxing if you turn off the lights and chat in my arms?"
"..."
Li Yu'an didn't expect Yan Cen to ask this, but he thought about it along the other party's line of thought -
if he really turned on the lights and looked into Yan Cen's eyes face to face, let alone chatting, he would probably even have trouble breathing.
Yan Cen suddenly suggested, "Touch my face?"
Li Yu'an's thoughts didn't follow, "What?"
"Don't just look at it, touch my face." Yan Cen repeated his suggestion and gave an explanation, "I heard that if you touch the details of facial features in the dark with your hands, you will remember them more firmly than with your eyes."
"I want you to remember me thoroughly."
"..."
It is said that the greatest destructive power is hidden in gentleness, not to mention that sweet love words.
Li Yuan's heart was moved by Yan Cen's invitation. He twisted his fingertips with a touch of heat and began to explore upward -
gradually exploring inwards from the superior outer contour.
From the curvature of the eyebrows, to the eyes usually hidden under the lenses, from the high bridge of the nose to the cool thin lips.
Suddenly, Yan Cen took Li Yuan's fingertips into his mouth and bit the round fingertips lightly.
"Hmm."
Li Yu'an's breath suddenly became confused, "Yan Cen?"
Yan Cen did not make a sound. His strong arms held him tightly in his arms, playing with his lover's fingers every inch.
Li Yuan felt the entanglement and warmth transmitted from his fingertips, and inexplicably thought of every kiss in the past two days. Yan Cen especially liked to suck and possess him hard.
It was a feeling of loss of control that made even the soul drift away.
Although he was only "trapped" by his fingertips, Li Yu'an's whole body was hot and his breathing trembled unsteadily, "Yan Cen, I, I'm sleepy."
Yan Cen let go of his fingertips and lingered over his panicked breathing, "Then kiss me, give me a goodnight kiss, and I'll let you sleep."
Except for the initial kiss on the corner of the mouth, the rest of the time was actively guided by Yan Cen.
Yan Cen added, "You are not allowed to kiss the corner of the mouth perfunctorily, otherwise you will not be allowed to sleep."
"..."
Once again, different from his usual gentleness, Yan Cen was like an officer giving orders, but commanding Li Yu'an, the embarrassed recruit, with love.
Li Yu'an obediently moved forward and kissed Yan Cen a little clumsily but seriously.
The breaths of the two mixed together, and Li Yu'an's last tone was soft and messy, "Is this okay? Good night."
"No--"
Yan Cen went back on his words and immediately chased him and kissed him, "Not enough."
The moment it was seized, Li Yu'an's string called reason broke, and he could not refuse any intimacy from Yan Cen. His
verbal refusal was blocked, but his heart was honestly accommodating.
It was not who broke the boundary of the kiss first, and the increasingly suppressed breath was tainted with possessiveness.
"Li Yu'an."
"Hmm?"
"Who did you like before? Did you know each other in college?"
Li Yu'an was confused, unable to hear clearly or figure out, and could only shake his head unconsciously.
The one-way tenderness created last night upgraded to a two-way enchantment, and finally became a messy intense heat, the darkness was gradually covered by the white in front of his eyes -
only then did it stop.
...
Li Yu'an looked at the light on the ceiling, and his thoughts that had been solidified for a long time slowly became active.
Yan Cen walked out of the door with a cup of warm water in his hand, "Come, drink some."
Li Yu'an said "hmm", and his voice was soft.
Yan Cen saw that the redness in the corners of his eyes had not faded yet, and rubbed it with his fingertips, "It's not even the end, how can you cry like that?" He
was very angry just now, but unfortunately the conditions did not allow it, and it was not the right time, so Yan Cen stopped on the edge of losing control.
"I didn't cry."
Li Yu'an defended himself while drinking water, feeling ashamed and agitated.
He and Yan Cen actually did that kind of thing hand in hand? And it was on the second day of their official relationship?
Isn't this speed a bit too fast?
At this rate, wouldn't they soon be -
the dangerous thoughts came to an abrupt end.
Li Yu'an was choked by his own thoughts and coughed twice, his face flushed.
Yan Cen stroked his back and asked curiously, "What are you thinking about?"
Two consecutive days of intimate behavior broke through Li Yu'an's secret defense against Yan Cen deep in his heart.
He began to show the intimate complaints that only normal lovers would have, "...You don't keep your word, you feel different from usual, you are lying to me."
It's too weird.
Whether it was kissing or more intimate affairs, the desire for control shown by Yan Cen was something he had never seen before.
"Sorry." Yan Cen gently accepted Li Yu'an's scolding and asked, "Can't accept me like this?"
Li Yu'an took another sip of water and said vaguely, "I just..."
He was indeed a little afraid of this strange intimacy. At the same time, a secret pursuit and stimulation would arise in his heart, making him resist and then sink.
Yan Cen asked, "Just what?"
Li Yu'an's fingertips swung along the water cup and said half and half, "We just started, we can't stay together every night. "End of Fog" is busy, and I have to work hard."
Whether it is in the name of cohabitation or those intimate things.
Li Yu'an did not deny that he liked Yan Cen's touch, but he also knew that he was naturally shy -
in his opinion, the last step, just liking was not enough.
Yan Cen understood Li Yu'an's unfinished intention and pinched his ear gently, "I know, I'll try."
Li Yu'an snorted, "Try what?"
Yan Cen pinched his red earlobe, "Before you completely believe in my feelings, I will try not to deceive you."
Like cannot escape desire, but love is absolutely inseparable from respect.
"Didn't you say you still have to work tomorrow?" Yan Cen wrapped the quilt around Li Yu'an and asked, "It's time to rest, otherwise you will be late tomorrow?"
Li Yu'an showed a little arrogance, "I should have rested a long time ago, I don't know whose fault it is?"
Yan Cen laughed, "Okay, it's my problem, I will definitely wake you up tomorrow and not let you be late, okay?"
"Yes."
...
...
Yan Cen is a man of his word, he said he would not go back on his word, so he gave Li Yu'an enough space to prepare his mind.
"End of Fog 2.0" produced by YWY Studio has entered the final sprint of the intense gongs and drums. As the owner and operator of the studio, Li Yu'an was so busy that he forgot the verbal agreement of "trying to date for a month" in a blink of an eye.
Yan Cen wished that he would forget about it completely, and he was willing to do the "logistics" work every day -
picking up Li Yu'an on time after work, or accompanying him to work overtime, and occasionally cooking for him, taking care of him in every detail .
Of course, if YWY Studio needed help, Yan Cen and Bo Yueming, as GM shareholders, could help their lovers in a matter of minutes.
- "Cheers!"
The glasses clinked lightly, making a pleasant sound of victory.
Bo Yueming looked at his lover and asked, "Is everything settled? Do I need to send someone to keep an eye on Ke Ming?"
Pei Yi and Li Yu'an looked at each other and answered, "Liyuan and I have asked my brother to send someone, but I don't think there will be any trouble."
Li Yu'an nodded in agreement, "Ke Ming can't protect himself now, he probably doesn't have the energy to 'harm' us."
Three days Recently, YWY's "Endless Mist 2.0" was maliciously suppressed and slandered by its "rival" peers at the critical moment of its online internal test. Fortunately, Pei Yi and Li Yu'an had a plan to deal with it - they turned
danger into safety, and also brought strong exposure and goodwill to the studio and "Endless Mist 2.0". On the other hand, Ke Ming, the head of the malicious competitor, picked up a stone and smashed his own foot!
Li Yu'an recalled Ke Ming's belittling and ridicule of him, and sighed, "I heard that Ke Ming invested a lot this time. This time, I'm afraid that the studio will go bankrupt directly."
Competition is destined to be cruel. In this case, I'm afraid that many employees will be unemployed and suffer.
Pei Yi heard this, his eyes lit up slightly, "Then you should quickly ask Brother Xiang to find out if there are any skilled employees willing to come to our studio?"
Anyway, their studio will expand sooner or later, and the more outstanding talents they have, the more they need them.
Li Yu'an nodded, "Yeah."
Bo Yueming put a pile of peeled shrimp meat into Pei Yi's bowl, and then agreed, "You can take this opportunity to ask, water flows to low places, and people go to high places."
Li Yu'an's eyes unconsciously focused on the pile of shrimp meat, and he felt a little greedy for some reason.
The next second, Yan Cen put the same shrimp meat into his bowl and coaxed him in a low voice, "What are you looking at others doing? You should eat more too."
The first half of the sentence was accompanied by a hint of inexplicable jealousy.
"..."
Li Yu'an secretly glanced at Yan Cen, puzzled -
why was he looking at someone else? Wasn't he looking at the shrimp?
Yan Cen understood his eye signal and returned a look: Eat quickly, I peeled it.
Li Yu'an moved his gaze back, looked at the more than enough shrimp in his bowl, and nodded happily, "Yeah."
Pei Yirao secretly watched the little interaction on the opposite side with interest, and glanced at the dishes on the table with his spare eyes -
other things were not touched at all, but the plate of shrimp was divided up by Bo Yueming and Yan Cen in a short time!
Pei Yi took a bite of shrimp and raised his glass, "Come on, Liyuan, forget about those two, we must not leave until we are drunk tonight! Let's just celebrate the big hit of "The Last Mist 2.0" in advance!"
"I wish us all the best in our future careers!"
Since leaving Dawn Games, Li Yuan almost plunged into YWY Studio. Now that "The Last Mist 2.0" has shown signs of being a big hit, his heartstrings that have been tense for a long time in his career can finally relax.
Li Yuan picked up his glass and raised his lips in response, "Okay, we won't leave until we are drunk."
Bo Yueming and Yan Cen looked at their lovers' excited looks and looked at each other. No one said anything to stop them, and they just let them have fun.
…
The valet driver parked the car downstairs of the apartment building.
"Two gentlemen, we're here."
"Okay, thank you."
Yan Cen looked at Li Yu'an who had fallen asleep on his shoulder, and signaled the valet driver to leave first.
The sound of the door closing inevitably shook him.
Li Yu'an, who was already in a light sleep, closed his eyes, a little confused, "Are we there yet?"
Yan Cen gently stroked his hot cheeks, "Are you drunk? Should I carry you up?"
Li Yu'an muttered, "No, I can drink better than Pei Yi."
When the four of them left the restaurant, Pei Yi was obviously much drunker than him.
Yan Cen got out of the car first and motioned to Li Yu'an, "Get down."
A hint of drunkenness flashed through Li Yu'an's eyes. He stared at the person in front of him for a while, and an impulsive thought came out of nowhere, "Yan Cen, can you carry me upstairs?"
It was rare for a lover to make a request, so Yan Cen naturally couldn't refuse, "Okay, get up."
Li Yu'an moved over, and taking advantage of the alcohol to put his arms around Yan Cen's shoulders, humming with satisfaction, "Okay."
Yan Cen chuckled and carried him steadily into the apartment building.
Li Yu'an smelled the clean smell of Yan Cen as always, and pieced together his remaining memories, "The first time you carried me on your back was in the bar last year, right?"
On the night of his birthday, he learned the most unacceptable truth, so he got drunk in the bar. Although he woke up at his friend's house the next day, Li Yu'an vaguely remembered that
it was Yan Cen who carried him on his back.
"Yes." Yan Cen seized this opportunity and asked back, "Then do you remember what you shouted when you were lying on my back?"
"..."
Li Yu'an had a vague impression, but he didn't say anything.
The alcohol gradually rose, controlling the ups and downs of his emotions.
Li Yu'an could not help but lean close to Yan Cen's neck and reminded him in a muffled voice, "Yan Cen, a month has already passed."
"..."
Yan Cen was silent for two seconds and only replied, "But we get along very well and have not broken up."
Li Yu'an was uncertain, "Do you still want to continue dating me?"
During this period, Yan Cen was a very qualified boyfriend, but he was too busy with work and hardly gave anything in this relationship.
He was a little afraid that Yan Cen would be disappointed in him.
Yan Cen carried Li Yu'an out of the elevator, opened the electronic door lock skillfully, and then carried him to the entrance cabinet.
The two people's line of sight shifted subtly.
Li Yuan, who was in a high position, lowered his eyes and met Yan Cen's firm and affectionate eyes, "Of course I am willing. I have never thought of breaking up with you."
Li Yuan took a deep breath and let the alcohol impulsiveness make an important decision, "Then you stay tonight? Okay?"
Yan Cen understood the hint in his words, tilted his head and rubbed his nose, "Are you sure?"
"..."
Li Yuan's courage disappeared in an instant under the teasing, and he said in a muffled voice, "Your spare clothes are still in the cabinet outside the bathroom. You go take a shower first. I feel dizzy and need to take a rest."
Yan Cen followed his arrangement, "Okay, listen to Mr. Li tonight."
...
After a while, the sound of water in the bathroom gradually stopped.
Li Yu'an sat on the edge of the bed, rubbing his hands back and forth, betraying his deep anxiety. There were bath towels and spare pajamas beside the bed, but there seemed to be something hidden under these two things.
Finally, there was a sound of the bathroom door outside the house opening.
Li Yu'an's heart tightened, and he quickly put the things that had been prepared by the bed into his arms. He took advantage of the moment when Yan Cen entered the room, quickly brushed past him, and walked into the bathroom.
- Click!
The bathroom door closed heavily.
Yan Cen was bypassed and ignored by his lover. He stood there in a daze and knocked on the door uncertainly, "Yu'an? Are you drunk?"
Li Yu'an's explanation was blurred by the bathroom door, "No, I was in a hurry to go to the bathroom."
Yan Cen remembered the wine he drank tonight and was still worried, "Try to wash quickly, so as not to get dizzy after a long time, don't lock the door, if you really get drunk and feel uncomfortable, call me at any time."
Li Yu'an replied in the bathroom, "Got it."
Yan Cen did not disturb his lover to wash up, and took his mobile phone that was about to run out of power back to the room. The only charging cable on the bedside table had been taken by Li Yu'an.
"Yu'an, do you have an extra data cable?"
"...Look for it yourself."
Li Yu'an's answer was very casual, and then the sound of water in the shower was heard.
Yan Cen walked to the bedside with his mobile phone, and naturally opened the tightly closed bedside cabinet. Suddenly, his searching eyes fixed firmly, and then he was rarely surprised -
in the innermost corner of the cabinet, there was a familiar cube of toffee, and under the candy was a thick book, and the cover of the book looked familiar.
From the side, it seemed that there was something sandwiched between the pages of the book, and there was a raised gap.
Yan Cen calmed down. He knew that he should not rummage through his lover's things casually, but under the strong desire to explore, he still crossed the line.
Yan Cen picked up the cube of toffee that had not been opened and checked it out first.
This is the kind of candy that he often uses in his office to relieve the bitterness of coffee. It is the only coffee candy he is used to having, and he brought it back from abroad last year.
If I remember correctly, Li Yu'an has never entered his office? Naturally, there is no way to get this candy.
On the contrary, on the day of the capital competition last year, he accidentally recognized the junior who had rear-ended his car, so he gave him a candy.
"..."
Yan Cen had a vague guess in his heart, but he didn't dare to be completely sure.
He held the candy in his hand and quickly flipped through this familiar financial book.
Sure enough, there were three candy wrappers sandwiched side by side on the inner pages.
The two below looked familiar, and Yan Cen recognized them at a glance -
after Li Yu'an had an unexpected fever, he specially prepared two candies in order to coax him to take medicine, and they were packaged in candy wrappers like this.
Yan Cen's gaze moved back to the almost white candy wrapper at the top, which had traces of wrinkles. After a moment of unfamiliarity, the picture in his mind came out smoothly.
"You have low blood sugar and feel a little dizzy?"
"There happens to be a candy in my clothes. It should make you feel better if you hold
it in your mouth. Do you want it?" Yan Cen still remembered the way Li Yu'an took the candy. His white fingertips were trembling, but he only grabbed the candy properly without touching him at all.
These candy wrappers were all given to Li Yu'an by him?
Why? Why did he keep them all the time? Even the ones given to him six or seven years ago were properly preserved until now?
Yan Cen only felt that his breathing was getting heavier, and he caught a glimpse of the page number on the lower left corner with his peripheral vision -
219.
Just like the password door set to 0219, it was still his birthday.
The emotions in Yan Cen's eyes became more and more intense, and his heart was about to jump out. In a flash, he directly turned the financial book with the candy wrapper pressed on it to the title page.
On the impeccably clean title page, there were two powerful big characters written.
Yan Cen.
This is his notes, and this is the textbook he used when he was a sophomore!
Not only that, after the two words "Yan Cen", there is also a person's name!
"..."
Yan Cen stared at the familiar name at the back in disbelief. The dusty years finally opened up a dark hole in front of him -
it was the 19-year-old Li Yu'an, who accidentally got the book that Yan Cen had left notes on from the hands of a financial instructor.
He did not dare to write his own name after Yan Cen's name, but prepared a sticky note of the same size and carefully left his name on it.
Two names on this cover page: Yan Cen, Li Yu'an.
Even this trace of names side by side could be torn off at any time.
