Chapter 188
Ming Qiao's almost coercive questioning forced You Qing, who had no way of avoiding it, to simply close his eyes.
He not only closed his eyes, he also pursed his lips.
Ming Qiao: “…”
Ming Qiao: "Brother, don't pretend to be asleep, answer quickly."
You Qing's face was pulled, and even though it hurt a little, he didn't react.
The two seemed to be confronting each other silently in the dim night.
After a while.
Ming Qiao curled his lips and let go of his hand.
He snorted, "Forget it. I won't ask."
You Qingting heard him hum, raised his eyes to look at him, and held his hand.
"Not angry."
You Qing, who had been silent just now, now knew that he was trying to coax someone. He held Ming Qiao's soft hand with one hand and put the other hand on his back, patting him gently to help him calm down.
"I'll tell you a story, okay?"
When Mingqiao was a child, he loved You Qing’s storytelling the most.
He fell asleep listening to You Qing's stories and had a very good dream.
But now, he has grown up.
He didn't want to listen to a bedtime story right now, he just wanted to chat with You Qing about some adult bedtime topics.
You Qing didn't want to talk, so he pulled a little face and talked alone.
"Let me tell you, the dreams I had when I was growing up were very interesting."
"I dreamed of someone in my dream."
Ming Qiao looked like he was talking to himself, but if he looked closely he could see that You Qing, who didn't say a word, was listening more seriously than anyone else.
When hearing Ming Qiao talking about the person he dreamed of, You Qing even held his breath.
He was waiting for Ming Qiao to tell him who this person was.
He was waiting with full concentration, but Ming Qiao suddenly yawned.
“So sleepy.”
Ming Qiao talked about his beautiful dream for a long time, but suddenly stopped at the last crucial point.
He didn't say who he dreamed about, but when he talked about the dream, his joy was visibly evident.
You Qing felt a sudden dull sensation in his heart for no apparent reason.
He opened his mouth and looked at Mingqiao who was yawning. He finally asked, "Qiaoqiao, do you have someone you like?"
Ming Qiao nodded generously: "Yes."
He rubbed his eyes and said in a vague voice: "The person I dreamed about was the person I like. In my dream, I did something I like with the person I like."
What Mingqiao said about his favorite things were undoubtedly the things that made him grow up.
After Ming Qiao finished speaking, he found a comfortable position in You Qing's arms and began to sleep with his eyes closed.
His face was pressed against You Qing's chest, and the close contact allowed him to clearly hear You Qing's heartbeat.
Bang, bang, bang.
One after another.
Ming Qiao felt at peace listening to the heartbeat that was like a drum.
He slept soundly, but You Qing couldn't fall asleep.
"Qiao Qiao, who is the person you like?"
You Qing asked quietly, "Is it someone I know?"
Ming Qiao did not answer.
His little face was pressed against You Qing's arms, his face sleeping peacefully with a hint of smile on the corner of his lips.
You Qing looked at him steadily for a long time.
Ming Qiao fell asleep.
I wonder if the person he likes will appear in his dreams again.
You Qing's eyes darkened.
He instinctively tightened his hold on Mingqiao.
In the dark night.
In his mind, he searched for someone Mingqiao might like.
He grew up with Mingqiao and knew Mingqiao's social circle very well.
The people around Mingqiao, and the ones Mingqiao cares about...
"Qinglan."
"Mianmian."
"Little Willow Leaf."
You Qing murmured one name after another, and wondered in his mind which one it would be.
These are the only girls Mingqiao has had contact with over the years.
You Qing didn't sleep the whole night.
Ming Qiao slept quite well. He was not taller than You Qing, so he looked quite small in You Qing's arms.
You Qing knew that he had a bad sleeping posture, so when she slept with him, she had already developed the habit of hugging him.
Early in the morning.
The bodies of two young boys, one big and one small, were placed next to each other. Ming Qiao's abnormality was inevitably revealed to You Qing.
You Qing, who hadn't fallen asleep at all, didn't act rashly after sensing Ming Qiao's strangeness.
He didn't wake Mingqiao up, nor did he just get up and leave Mingqiao. He was afraid that if he got up and left, he would alarm Mingqiao.
Time passed by little by little, and every minute and every second seemed to be stretched infinitely.
As You Qing waited motionlessly, Ming Qiao, who was dreaming, finally opened her eyes.
When he woke up, he instinctively rubbed his face against You Qing.
"elder brother."
He mumbled and rubbed his face several times before he slowly came to his senses.
"Hmm."
He was aware of his situation.
This situation made Ming Qiao sigh slightly.
His gaze fell on You Qing's face, who had his eyes closed and his eyelashes trembling slightly.
"elder brother?"
Ming Qiao called out again tentatively, as if to confirm whether You Qing was awake.
You Qing didn't move.
Ming Qiao didn't move in the bed. He just buried his face in You Qing's arms, waiting for the early morning throbbing to disappear.
Ming Qiao buried his warm face in You Qing's arms. After less than two seconds, he moved away a little uncomfortably.
"Forget it, let's go take a bath in the river."
Ming Qiao sat up, his pretty face still showing marks from sleeping. He muttered something and wanted to go out.
You Qing grabbed him.
"return."
You Qing lost control of his grip and pulled Ming Qiao, who was sitting, directly onto him.
Two people are next to each other.
Ming Qiao's face flushed red, and he still wanted to struggle out: "Brother, good morning, I'll go to the river to catch some fish for you."
In such a cold day, you can imagine how freezing the temperature in the river is.
You Qing naturally wouldn't let Ming Qiao go.
He held Mingqiao's wrist tightly and did not let go. The two looked at each other. Mingqiao blushed, lowered his head, and said nothing.
You Qing's eyes followed his face closely.
After a while, You Qing finally spoke: "Qiao Qiao, have you read the book about growth lessons?"
Ming Qiao snorted, "I've seen it."
You Qing held his hand and lowered it: "Use the method in the book."
Ming Qiao: “…”
Ming Qiao: “No.”
Ming Qiao's eyes were wet. He looked at You Qing with a confused and innocent face: "Brother, I can't do it."
You Qing: “…”
You Qing's breathing became disordered.
He tried his best to steady his breathing and look calm: "I'll teach you."
Ming Qiao: "Brother, can you do it?"
You Qing doesn’t know how to do it either.
But in front of Ming Qiao, he always had to make himself known.
He didn't say much, just hugged Mingqiao and moved his hand down.
A barrier rose up around the tent.
Ming Qiao seemed not to be aware of the existence of the barrier. He tried hard to hold back his voice so that no one could hear him.
However, the sound cannot be suppressed at all.
As soon as his last muffled groan fell to the ground, You Qing's body suddenly tensed up.
He lowered his eyes, looked at Ming Qiao, and said in a low and comforting voice: "Okay, don't be afraid anymore."
Mingqiao acted timid and scared.
You Qing comforted him softly for a long time before the boy in his arms regained his composure.
"Brother, am I too stupid? I can't even do this."
"Not stupid."
How could You Qing say that Qiao was stupid? He just said, "Qiao Qiao will be able to do it when he grows up a little bit."
Ming Qiao: “Yeah!”
Ming Qiao's "unfamiliarity and clumsiness" made You Qing feel strangely relieved.
He can't do anything. Does this also represent Yu Xiaoyan's feeling that, apart from the occasional dream, there is nothing else romantic between him and the person he so-called likes.
"Jojo."
You Qing took this opportunity to ask the question that he didn't answer last night: "Who is the person you like? Can you tell me her name?"
Ming Qiao: “No.”
Ming Qiao's face was a little downcast: "Brother, it's very difficult for me to get along with him. He doesn't have that kind of idea towards me. He always avoids me and wants to keep his distance from me."
You Qing: “?”
You Qing's face darkened: "She doesn't like you?"
Ming Qiao: "Not really, he doesn't seem to be getting it."
When You Qing heard this, he felt even more unhappy.
Although he felt an inexplicable dislike for the person Mingqiao liked.
But when he heard how this man treated Ming Qiao, he began to think that the other person might be blind.
His Ming Qiao is good-looking and has a sunny and lovely personality.
Everyone in this world should love his Ming Qiao.
"Brother, don't worry about me. I can handle it myself."
Ming Qiao blinked his eyes, quite confident.
They didn't talk about bedtime topics, but they did talk about waking up for a long time.
The smell in the tent was not fresh.
After Ming Qiao asked You Qing if he needed his help, he put on his clothes and went out.
After he left, You Qing also removed the barrier outside the tent.
In this way he could hear Mingqiao greeting people outside.
"Qiao Qiao, your brother hasn't gotten up yet?"
People who greet Ming Qiao always have a hint of You Qing in their words.
He was used to it: "My brother will be up in a while."
"Hey, Qiao Qiao, I want to ask you something."
Ming Qiao: "You say."
"Does your brother have a crush on someone?"
Ming Qiao raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Guess."
The other party doesn't guess, the other party is eager to know.
Ming Qiao replied with a smile: "Just ask my brother directly."
"If I dare to ask him, why would I ask you now? Forget it, I won't ask."
The other party walked away a little unhappy.
Ming Qiao looked at her back as she walked away, and the smile on his little face slowly faded away.
The question she just asked had already been asked by Ming Qiao.
You Qing answered without hesitation: "No."
He has no sweetheart.
You Qing's answer made Ming Qiao leave him and travel outside alone for a long time.
The air in Tianshan is thin.
Ming Qiao has some skills, so he can breathe freely here.
He looked at the Tianshan Mountain covered with ice and snow and said with emotion: "This should not be called Tianshan Mountain, it should be called Snow Mountain!"
You Qing: "The snowy mountains in the Snow Region are higher than this."
Ming Qiao: "Then I'll go and have a look next time."
You Qing pursed his lips.
He looked at Ming Qiao's small face and said, "I can go with you."
Ming Qiao: “No need.”
Ming Qiao: "Just do your thing, I can go by myself."
You Qing listened to this and said nothing more.
The flowers on the Tianshan Mountains are not easily picked.
The group camped on the Tianshan Mountains and they didn't plan to leave until they picked flowers.
Tianshan is too cold.
Although You Qing knew that Ming Qiao had his cultivation to protect him, he would not really be frozen.
But he still worries.
During the nights in Tianshan, You Qing always slept with Ming Qiao.
Ming Qiao is still in his prime, and he always has some instinctive reactions when he goes to sleep.
In response to these reactions, he just said no.
You Qing had no choice but to teach him little by little.
He taught Mingqiao based on the few books he had read, and he comforted and enlightened Mingqiao.
For a moment, the two of them looked very intimate.
They hadn't had this kind of intimacy for a long time.
After staying in Tianshan for three days and three nights, Mingqiao picked the flowers he wanted.
He carefully placed the flowers in the space and said happily, "Go home!"
You Qing had been waiting for him to say "go home" for a long time.
"Qiao Qiao, should we go back first, or wait for them to come together?"
You Qing pointed at the people who were traveling with him.
Ming Qiao didn't have a good relationship with these people, so he made a choice without thinking: "Let's go back by ourselves first."
"good."
As soon as Ming Qiao finished speaking, You Qing took him away first.
Before leaving, Ming Qiao was a little naughty.
He took off the disguise on his face in front of these people.
"I haven't told you all this time, but my name is Ming Qiao."
"Goodbye. I'm leaving now."
Ming Qiao waved vigorously and left with You Qing.
The two of them quickly disappeared from view.
The few people who were still standing there were all dumbfounded.
"Ming, Ming Qiao? Is that Ming Qiao, the most beautiful person in the entire Tianjun Realm?"
"It's him."
Murong Shen came to his senses from shock, as if waking up from a dream: "It must be him! I saw his face!"
That face deserves the title of number one in the Tianjun Realm.
"I used to think that his brother spoiled him too much, but now, I think if I were his brother, I would definitely spoil him too..."
Ruoruo, who had been interested in You Qing before, has now completely betrayed her.
She thought about Ming Qiao's appearance and bit her lip with tears in her eyes: "If I had known Qiao Qiao was Ming Qiao, I would definitely not talk to him like that."
She regrets it so much now!
Several people were extremely regretful. They stared at the direction Ming Qiao left and even chased after him.
Ming Qiao and You Qing were running too fast and they couldn't catch up.
The return journey took less than two days.
Before Ming Qiao got home, he asked You Qing again, "Brother, do you really not have a lover?"
"No."
You Qing answered the same as before: "Qiao Qiao, I have no plans to find a Taoist partner."
Ming Qiao: “Oh.”
Ming Qiao came closer and asked, "Brother, can I still come and sleep with you tonight?"
You Qing avoided his gaze. He did not answer the question directly, but said, "Qiao Qiao, I'll get you a book later."
Ming Qiao: “…”
Ming Qiao turned and left.
He returned to the house and looked for Qing Heng: "Mother, I'm back!"
Qingheng and Wuye were very happy to see their son come back.
You Qing did not step forward.
He left the house and went about his own business.
For the next few days, he didn't see Mingqiao when he came back.
"Two, two."
You Qing didn't see Ming Qiao, but he saw Er Er on the street.
Er'er is now a very pretty little girl. She is wearing pink clothes and walking on the street.
You Qing stopped in front of her.
"Brother You Qing."
Er Er saw You Qing and greeted him obediently.
She and Yi Yi were both raised by You Qing and Ming Qiao. She is a little afraid of these two brothers, the fearless little devil Er Er.
After all, since she was a child, whenever she did something wrong, it was always her two brothers who beat her first.
"I haven't been running around or doing anything lately."
Er Er explained his itinerary without waiting for You Qing to ask anything.
In order to show that she was a good boy, she showed You Qing the bags of things in her hand and said, "I'm buying things for my big brother."
You Qing: "Where is he?"
Er Er: "Ah?"
You Qing patiently asked again: "Where is your elder brother?"
Er Er: "At Ling Si's house."
You Qing: "Give me the things."
Er Er: “…”
Er Er obediently handed over all the things to him.
You Qing originally wanted to deliver these things personally.
He hasn't seen Mingqiao for several days.
But one of the things Er Er handed over attracted his attention.
That's a book.
You Qing didn't know why, but the moment he saw the book, his heart skipped a beat.
He opened the book in its packaging.
The book cover is a solid plain color, nothing special to look at.
You Qing opened the book, and what came into his eyes was the scene of two men being affectionate.
As he looked at these images, his big hands tightened unconsciously.
"Did Ming Qiao ask you to buy this?"
Er Er: "Yes, Big Brother said that we need to enforce discipline."
Chunfengji, the name sounds quite elegant.
You Qing clutched the book page, his face gloomy: "He wants to read it with Lingsi?"
Er Er keenly sensed the danger.
She said cautiously, "My brother and Lingsi are good friends. What's wrong with good friends reading together?"
Why does Brother You Qing look like he wants to eat someone?
You Qing had a stern face and didn't explain anything.
He confiscated the book and returned the rest of the things to Er Er.
Er Er saw him striding away and thought he was weird.
You Qing, who was being stared at by Er Er, was feeling emotional at the moment.
He had guessed many girls that Mingqiao might like.
But he never guessed that Ming Qiao liked——
It’s not a girl.
He likes boys.
No, to be precise, the person he likes now can be seen at a glance.
He likes creative thinking.
Ming Qiao, who was lying in Lingsi's house, had no idea what You Qing was thinking.
Mingqiao was eating a plate of peeled fruit, which he got from Yiyi.
Ming Qiao was eating Yi Yi's fruit plate and ordering Yi Yi around: "Yi Yi, pour a glass of water for big brother."
The lazy little guy just sat there without moving.
Without even raising his eyelids, he shouted, "Lingsi, water!"
Ling Si: “…”
Lingsi poured the water expressionlessly and handed it directly to Mingqiao.
The author has something to say:
