Six feathers
Dust suddenly flew up all around, and the wind enveloped Ye Linghan like a whirlpool. He had no time to dodge, and didn't even have the chance to look up. He felt his feet leave the ground, and his body suddenly hung in the air, and he actually flew into the sky with the black shadow.
To be precise, he was carried up to the sky.
"Yin Chen, is that you?" He was probably the only one who dared to call the young master of the vampire clan by his name.
Just think of it as someone speaking without thinking because he was frightened. I think the vampire boss won't care about such trivial matters.
Because of the unique smell on Yin Chen, and the fact that they had been together day and night for nearly twenty years, Ye Linghan's perception of him had been engraved in his soul, so he knew who the person was without having to guess.
"Yeah." Yin Chen responded calmly, and his tone did not show any displeasure at being called by his name.
The night sky is full of stars, which echo the light reflected by the neon lights.
"Aren't you afraid of being seen like this?" Yin Chen's embrace was extremely powerful, so Ye Linghan was not afraid of the feeling of being high in the air. Instead, he enjoyed it a little. So much so that while he was not worried about his own safety, he was a little worried about Yin Chen's identity being exposed.
Even if he didn't care, flying in the sky so openly would inevitably lead to gossip.
Yin Chen flew very steadily. Vampires are born with an extra pair of wings than ordinary people. However, due to their bloodline, some low-level vampires cannot differentiate, so not all vampires can fly.
"Don't be afraid, we are protected by the barrier and no one can see us."
As if fulfilling Yin Chen's words, Ye Linghan looked down and saw a young couple walking on the side of the road. So he cupped his hands into a trumpet shape and whispered, "Hey--"
Where he couldn't see, Yin Chen's mouth corners curled up slightly, and his eyes were not as sharp as usual, but were tinged with tenderness. He closed his arms to prevent Ye Linghan from falling down due to playfulness.
Just as Yin Chen said, this sound did not reach the ears of the young couple.
Seeing this, Ye Linghan grew a little bolder, "Hey - I wish you happiness!"
Still no response.
But Yin Chen secretly responded to this sentence in his heart - I hope we can be happy too.
But Ye Linghan didn’t know all this, he was still immersed in curiosity at the moment.
It’s really magical, Ye Linghan thought, seeing is believing. In the past, he had only heard that vampires had special abilities, but he didn’t expect it to be true.
Yin Chen held Ye Linghan tightly as they flew in the night sky, quietly guarding his only heartbeat in the twilight.
Ye Linghan looked down at the ground, feeling the cool breeze brush across his face.
If I could find a flying vampire as my boyfriend in the future, and let him use this special ability, the two of us could "play" in the sky and watch the people coming and going below. It would be very exciting to think about it.
Suddenly feeling that his thoughts seemed to be going astray, Ye Linghan stopped this evil idea. After all, the matter of having a boyfriend was not even settled yet, so there was no point in thinking so much. The most important thing was to complete the current task first.
After returning home, Yin Chen went to the study to answer a work call. It was unknown how long the conversation would last, so Ye Linghan went to take a shower alone.
When his mind was in a tense state, he didn't feel tired. At this time, the warm water flowed down from the top of Ye Linghan's head, and he actually felt a lot more relaxed physically and mentally. At the same time, his upper and lower eyelids began to fight uncontrollably.
After washing hastily, he lay down on the bed. He felt as if the moment his upper eyelid touched his lower eyelid, he stepped into a chaotic and empty world.
After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Ye Linghan felt his hand being gently lifted up by someone, and at the same time, he felt a cool touch on his fingers. He couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality for a moment, but his vigilant heart forced him to open his eyes drowsily. When his eyes were hazy, he raised his hand and saw a translucent, jade-like ring on his finger.
Ye Linghan was lying on his side on the bed. The breath on his neck and the weight pressing on him reminded him that Yin Chen was right behind him. So he moved his body and slowly opened his mouth: "What is this?"
Ye Linghan closed his palm slightly and looked at the ring that was shining with a warm light in the dark night.
What does he mean?
For more than one moment, many unrealistic fantasies really flashed through his mind.
"I think it suits you very well. Do you like it?" Yin Chen said in a calm voice. Perhaps because he had said a lot in the meeting, his voice was a little hoarse.
The smell of Ye Linghan also had a kind of magic to Yin Chen. The latter held Ye Linghan tightly in his arms, rubbing his nose against his neck, as if he was trying his best to suppress the urge to bite him.
"Thank you, I like it very much." In the dark night, Ye Linghan placed his hand on his heart and said, the word "like" was not against his heart, but it also did not only refer to the ring.
The next day, because Ye Linghan had a good rest the night before, he woke up earlier. His biological clock has always been relatively punctual, provided he does not dream.
However, the strange feeling of heaviness on his body made him more awake. Ye Linghan tilted his head and what came into his sight was Yin Chen's stunning face.
Why is he... still here?
Over the years, except when necessary, Yin Chen had never stayed overnight at Ye Linghan's place. Most of the time, he would leave after he fell asleep. But the night before, he didn't think much about it, thinking that he might leave after a while, but he didn't expect that he would actually sleep next to him.
Just as Ye Linghan was stunned, Yin Chen beside him moved his body, tightened his arm around Ye Linghan's waist, and murmured, "Are you awake?"
This was the first time Ye Linghan heard such a soft and cute voice from Yin Chen's mouth.
"Yeah." Ye Linghan responded, "Why didn't you go to the company?"
For Ye Linghan, staying overnight was already very rare, and not going to work was even stranger. As everyone knew, the young master of the blood clan was a workaholic and would never be late for work during working hours, but at this time, he was obviously late.
"I'm taking a vacation. I'm not going." Yin Chen's words were concise and to the point.
Is this the boss's confidence? Ye Linghan couldn't help but sigh.
After getting up, Yin Chen asked the housekeeper to bring breakfast. The two of them didn't communicate much as if they were not familiar with each other, and finished their first meal of the day.
Although Ye Linghan usually stays at home, he is not idle. He often sits on the balcony and reads books about pharmacology and chemical reagents.
"What are you looking at?" Yin Chen's voice came from behind Ye Linghan.
Ye Linghan's arm twitched subconsciously and he wanted to close the book and put it away because he knew Yin Chen didn't like him reading these things. But after thinking about it, he realized that covering it up was futile, so he pretended to be calm.
"Nothing." He simply handed the book to Yin Chen, "Do you want to take a look?" Since he couldn't avoid it, he might as well confess.
Yin Chen took the book with his slender, cold white fingers, but did not read it. In fact, his eyes were fixed on Ye Linghan. He turned the book upside down on the tea table beside him, and the title of the book was exposed.
Yin Chen rested one hand on the table and the other on the sofa, bent his legs and stuck them between Ye Linghan's legs. He looked down at Ye Linghan and half-encircled him in his arms.
Yin Chen's gaze seemed to see through Ye Linghan. The two of them had rarely had contact unless necessary, but recently, Ye Linghan didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that Yin Chen seemed to be a little "clingy" than before.
Yin Chen remained silent, and Ye Linghan didn't dare to speak either. The two of them stared at each other for a long moment before Yin Chen said calmly, "I'm going on a business trip tomorrow. Are you coming?"
This was the first time he asked Ye Linghan in a negotiating tone. Every time Yin Chen went on a business trip before, he would force Ye Linghan to go with him most of the time, because sometimes he could not control his bloodthirsty impulses, and only Ye Linghan could help him.
Ye Linghan couldn't adapt to Yin Chen's way of speaking for a while. At the beginning, he was full of fear of Yin Chen. As time went by and he grew older, he found that Yin Chen didn't seem to be a bad person. Instead, he was very tolerant of him. He was just not that close to him in normal times, so he started to be bolder.
But no matter how bold he was towards Yin Chen, Ye Linghan didn't dare let the young master coax him into doing things, so of course he couldn't refuse the request to go on a business trip. He could only agree, and he had to agree.
Ye Linghan nodded, "Okay, where are we going?"
"South City--"
The distance between South City and East City is not very close. In order to save time, ordinary working people would choose to take a plane to travel back and forth between the two places. Of course, Yin Chen is no exception, but he has his own private plane.
To outsiders, Ye Linghan is just an assistant to Yin Chen, and the kind of assistant who doesn't have to do anything but follow the boss around.
Therefore, on the way to Dongcheng on a private plane, Yin Chen was busy with official business in the study converted from the cabin, while Ye Linghan was doing his own things in the room.
Suddenly, Ye Linghan's cell phone rang. In order to facilitate work, Yin Chen specially installed a wireless network on the plane, and the network speed was not slow at all.
Ye Linghan pressed the answer button, "Tangtang, what's going on?"
Judging from the tone, Zhao Tang on the other end of the line seemed to be trying hard to lower his voice, "Ling Han, where did you get the cigarette butt you gave me?"
Ye Linghan's heart sank a little. Zhao Tang rarely spoke in a roundabout way, and there was indeed something wrong with this cigarette butt.
"Did something happen?"
"Hmm," Zhao Tang whispered. "I can't find the exact composition yet, but I took some time to extract DNA today, and it turned out to be very similar to the person involved in a missing persons case from twenty years ago. The case remains unsolved. So, where did you get it from?"
Twenty years ago... Ye Linghan was just born at that time, so this matter inevitably came to Yin Chen again.
But it’s not that the case is related to him, but the most direct way to find out is to ask him.
"I..." Ye Linghan was about to say something when he suddenly heard footsteps outside the door, so he quickly changed the subject, "Tangtang, I have something to worry about. I'm on a business trip. I'll talk to you when I get back."
Just after hanging up the phone, Yin Chen happened to push the door open and asked, "Who are you talking to on the phone?"
"A classmate." Seeing Yin Chen coming over, Ye Linghan felt guilty for no reason and swallowed his saliva.
All of this was keenly captured by Yin Chen, "What are you nervous about?"
"Ah? Nothing?" Ye Linghan quickly forced a smile on his face to make himself look normal.
After all, Yin Chen has very little free time, and Zhao Tang did not tell him who the victim was twenty years ago, so many things cannot be connected together. Moreover, this may be related to the vampires. Therefore, Ye Linghan wants to wait until the context is clear before asking Yin Chen.
"Are you not used to living here?"
Yin Chen's out-of-nowhere concern left Ye Linghan unsure how to respond. This wasn't his first time flying a private jet. "No, no."
Before boarding the plane, Ye Linghan took a motion sickness pill. Fortunately, the private plane flew more smoothly, so he didn't feel any discomfort.
After Ye Linghan said this, Yin Chen's eyes darkened visibly. He didn't know which sentence made him unhappy, so he kept his mouth shut and didn't dare to speak again.
