Chapter 15
Lin Shengwen didn't say a word all the way. He carried Liang Xun to the back seat of the car, closed the door, and waited outside for the designated driver.
He looked through the window glass at Liang Xun sitting in the car. He couldn't see clearly, but Lin Shengwen knew that his upper body was probably red as a shrimp.
The designated driver came to pick them up on a bicycle shortly after. He folded the bicycle and put it in the trunk of Lin Shengwen's car, then got into the driver's seat. Lin Shengwen then sat in the back seat and found that Liang Xun had closed his eyes at some point, as if he had fallen asleep.
Liang Xun slept uneasily, his brows furrowed and his eyelashes trembled restlessly.
Lin Shengwen cautiously moved closer to him, intending to have Liang Xun lean against him so he could sleep more comfortably. However, his plan was thwarted before it even began. Liang Xun curled up and rested his head against the edge of the car window on his side.
Lin Shengwen knew that he was not really asleep, but because of the alcohol, he was almost in a coma. If he touched Liang Xun now, he would definitely feel his extremely fast heartbeat and high fever.
But Lin Shengwen calmly withdrew his hand.
Liang Xun misunderstood many things. Lin Shengwen's defensiveness was difficult to let down all at once, so he chose to hide a lot of information about himself from Liang Xun. He originally thought this was normal, but he later realized that his so-called "normal" could only be classified as "abnormal" in Liang Xun's eyes.
Lin Shengwen looked at Liang Xun's closed eyes in the reflection of the car window.
It was so hard. He had never felt so hard doing anything before. Lin Shengwen felt a sudden sharp pain in his solar plexus, which disappeared in an instant.
The car was very quiet. The designated driver drove the car silently along the set home address navigation, and arrived at the underground garage of Dajiang Yuehua Apartment Building in less than half an hour.
He settled the fee with the designated driver and was about to put his hand on Liang Xun's shoulder to wake him up, but Liang Xun opened his eyes on his own.
"arrive?"
Liang Xun's eyes were red. A few bloodshot threads, some thick, some thin, pierced the whites of his eyes, staining the base pink. The last time Lin Shengwen saw eyes this red was when he saw a lab mouse. His eyelids closed and then opened again, as if he had been crying for a long time. In fact, his eyes were indeed wet.
Liang Xun blinked, as if having difficulty focusing, and stared at Lin Shengwen for a long time before asking again.
"I asked you if you've arrived yet?"
He had drunk a bit of wine, and his tone was quite different from usual. Lin Shengwen tended to believe that the Liang Xun who was now speaking harshly with a soft voice was the true Liang Xun.
If Liang Xun treated him in a rather formal manner at the beginning because he was afraid that there was a party A and party B relationship between them, then after he had signed Dajiang Yuehua's contract, this identity barrier should have been eliminated long ago.
Why did Liang Xun still treat him with respect?
Unless, Liang Xun never regarded him as a "friend".
Lin Shengwen lowered his head as if possessed by a ghost and kissed Liang Xun on the lips.
The soft lips were warm and hot. Lin Shengwen recalled the only time when he broke his parents' rules as a child and bought a bag of peach-flavored gummy candies outside the school. It felt the same way.
He hugged Liang Xun tightly. This body was like an active volcano about to erupt. The heat penetrated through the clothes and reached Lin Shengwen's heart. Now his heartbeat also wanted to be in sync with Liang Xun's, exchanging kisses like flowing magma.
"Hmm..." Liang Xun muttered and struggled to push him away.
The next second, his wet eyes finally focused. He looked into Lin Shengwen's eyes and took a long time to confirm who was in front of him.
Then gave up struggling.
——Liang Xun deepened the kiss.
…
Liang Xun slept until nine in the morning. When he was half asleep and getting ready to get up, he would usually stretch out as usual. But for some reason, this day, when he straightened his bent legs, it was as if he hit something hard. The strange thing was that the object was actually a little elastic. Liang Xun couldn't help but kick it again.
Until he heard a muffled groan.
"Um……"
The few senses of crisis in Liang Xun's bones finally came out to grasp the overall situation. He suddenly woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a face in front of him that was so beautiful that it was infuriating to both humans and gods.
The gray-white curtains in the room were not completely closed, and the sunlight coming through the gap in the curtains outlined Lin Shengwen's facial features. His long eyelashes were glowing with warm light, and Liang Xun stared at him with his eyes wide open.
But this is not right.
How could he be lying in the same bed with Lin Shengwen? What happened last night? Wait, the person he just kicked...could it be Lin Shengwen?
Liang Xun hugged his head which suddenly felt painful, and his mind flashed back to the last memory before he lost consciousness.
...He confronted Lin Shengwen and accused him of deceiving him.
Oh my God, he must be crazy to talk like that, and Xu Yiming and Pei Ning also saw his embarrassing appearance at that time. When Liang Xun thought of this, his headache became even worse.
Lin Shengwen slowly woke up. He opened his eyes, squinted to adjust to the light, and then turned his gaze to Liang Xun.
"Good morning."
Lin Shengwen explained.
"You drank too much yesterday. I carried you back, but I was really tired and didn't have time to send you back to your room."
Lin Shengwen's words were very reasonable and his reasons were very sufficient. Liang Xun could not find any fault with them at all. He and Lin Shengwen looked at each other for a long time, and Liang Xun was defeated.
"……Excuse me."
Lin Shengwen chuckled: "You can drink a glass of wine, but you still try to snatch it from my mouth."
Perhaps because he had just woken up, Lin Shengwen's voice was quite low and a little sticky, and Liang Xun almost drowned in it.
"I was too impulsive," Liang Xun held the back of his head and asked, "I didn't do anything rude, did I? Although it's a bit late to ask now, but..."
"You don't remember anything?" Lin Shengwen's eyelids twitched.
"sorry……"
Lin Shengwen shook his head and sat up. He turned around to look at Liang Xun. Because of his movement, half of the quilt was lifted up. Liang Xun was lying on his side on the bed, and his posture looked exactly like the little man icon on the emergency exit.
Lin Shengwen burst out laughing.
Liang Xun felt like the sky was falling. He wondered what he had done to make Lin Shengwen laugh at him like that. He supported himself on the mattress and sat up, then got off the bed.
"I'm going back to the second bedroom." He said sullenly.
Lin Shengwen reached out and grabbed him.
"Go take a shower. I only brought you back yesterday, and you fell asleep as soon as you fell into the bed. I'll make you a hangover soup."
Liang Xun reached down and gently pressed on the back of Lin Shengwen's hand. He frowned and asked Lin Shengwen: "If I ask you what I did, will you answer me truthfully?"
Lin Shengwen nodded.
"Are you asking about the first time I saw you at that bar, or about last night?"
Liang Xun thought for a moment and said, "Can you tell me everything?"
Lin Shengwen then recounted his first encounter with Liang Xun on the 18th of last month. He admitted that at the time, he had no idea the man throwing himself at him was Liang Xun. It was only later, when Liang Xun took him to view a property, that he recognized him. To his surprise, Liang Xun had no memory of him at all.
But when it comes to what happened the night before, Lin Shengwen only spoke the truth. He did not mention that he kissed Liang Xun without his consent - Lin Shengwen also knew that his behavior was extremely immoral.
He looked at Liang Xun's ears and cheeks, which gradually turned red as he narrated, and added fuel to the fire:
"You were drunk yesterday, and your tone wasn't that stiff when you spoke."
Lin Shengwen then requested, "Just treat me normally, Liang Xun."
Liang Xun stood there for a long time, and finally managed a weak "OK".
Liang Xun was chased by Lin Shengwen to the bathroom to take a shower. Liang Xun did not suspect anything. When he finished showering and was about to come out, he realized that he did not bring pajamas with him. He was struggling whether to go out wrapped in a bath towel and quickly ran into the second bedroom where he lived, or to just embarrass himself and call Lin Shengwen to hand him a pair of pajamas.
To be honest, Lin Shengwen might really do the latter thing today.
Liang Xun's entanglement took up too much time. Lin Shengwen had already finished cooking the hangover soup, washed his hands and made two simple breakfasts. Seeing that Liang Xun was still not coming out, Lin Shengwen thought he was unwell. He walked to the bathroom door and knocked, but Liang Xun still did not respond.
Lin Shengwen certainly didn't know Liang Xun's inner struggle. He waited for less than thirty seconds before judging that Liang Xun might be in danger, and pushed open the door without any hesitation.
Liang Xun tied the towel around his waist and thought intently about the best solution. However, he didn't get a solution and instead saw Lin Shengwen breaking in.
Lin Shengwen glanced at him.
There were too many things hidden in that look, but Lin Shengwen quickly moved his gaze back. Liang Xun had no way to search for Lin Shengwen's thoughts. He looked back at Lin Shengwen helplessly, not knowing what he wanted to do.
He had no idea that the look Lin Shengwen gave him was like a knife cutting into Lin Shengwen's chest.
Lin Shengwen has a bit of a control urge in his bones - the funny thing is that he controls his control urge very well and rarely pours it out on others. At most, he just doubles it back into his own career and life.
What Liang Xun's identity was and how he was related to him was not discussed for now. But even if he was someone he was not very familiar with and they lived under the same roof, Lin Shengwen had never realized before that Liang Xun's thinness had reached the point of being somewhat morbid.
Whether as a doctor or as a person named Lin Shengwen, his desire for control has been aroused and he can hardly control it.
Lin Shengwen took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and rolled his eyeballs under his closed eyelids so that the blood could circulate more efficiently in a short period of time. Lin Shengwen said to him.
"I'll get you some pajamas, put them on and come out."
His peach blossom eyes looked quite stern at this moment, as if with a hint of annoyance.
Liang Xun heard him ask himself.
"Liang Xun, are you not eating properly?"
