Chapter 131
Feeling a pain on his lips, Lin Shuge woke up as if from a dream. He quickly pinched Xie Chen lightly, and Xie Chen let him go.
"Brother, what's wrong?" Xie Chen asked deliberately when he saw him panting with tears in his eyes.
Lin Shuge took a deep breath, looked around, and saw that this place was remote and no one was coming over at the moment, so he gave him a sidelong glance and asked the question even though he knew the answer.
"Let's go." Lin Shuge's face was burning. Fortunately, no one came over, otherwise if someone saw him, how could he save face? He didn't know if he had been bewitched by someone just now, and he actually did such a thing on the street... Oh, let's go quickly.
"Brother, why are you in such a hurry? We are not having an affair, but with such a beautiful scenery and beautiful weather, having an affair can be quite romantic." Xie Chen raised the lamp in his hand slightly. The moonlight was bright and there were crowds of people in the distance. Waves of cheers came with the wind, but this place seemed like a forgotten corner.
"You seem to be in a good mood?" Lin Shuge looked at the smile on his face suspiciously.
"It's natural to be happy hanging out with my brother. Isn't my brother happy?"
"Happy, let's go over there and look for Ayuan and Axuan. It's getting late, we have to catch them and take them home." Lin Shuge glanced at the moon, held two lanterns in one hand, pursed his lips, and with the other hand, clasped Xie Chen's fingers tightly, and walked in the direction they came from.
Just like the streets we came from, the roads were bustling with people and the crowds were crowded. There were not many fewer people, as if everyone was going to stay awake all night.
"Aren't you all going to sleep tonight?" Lin Shuge asked in surprise. The ancients had very little entertainment at night and usually went to bed early. When he first came here, he was sick and weak and also went to bed early. Later, he gradually got used to the daily routine here.
But in today's situation, who would go back to bed early when there is so much fun to do?
"This is the only time of the year when there is no curfew, so we should have some fun." Xie Chen replied, "In the past, my friends and I would always stay out all night during the Lantern Festival and return home the next day, and my mother would never punish me."
"You didn't come back all night?" Lin Shuge paused, turned back and looked at him with a sharp gaze, "Tell me, where did you go?"
Xie Chen quickly added: "Every time I just wandered around and visited various friends' homes, I definitely didn't go out to fool around. My mother was very strict with me. If I did anything stupid, she would have broken my legs. Besides, before I met my brother, I was very..." Before he could finish his words, Lin Shuge covered his mouth.
On the street, people are saying all sorts of vicious words.
“I’ll believe you for now.” Lin Shuge let go of his hand and looked at the crowd. He saw that among the people coming and going, someone was always looking at him and didn’t care at all when being bumped into.
Xie Chen held his hand with one hand and promised him in his ear that he would never do anything to let him down. Lin Shuge waved his head in that direction. Xie Chen looked over with him in some surprise. When he saw it was Taran, his expression froze, and then he held the other hand that was clasped between his sleeves even tighter.
Taran walked over here and stopped in front of the two of them, seeming a little embarrassed, "Lord Lin, may I have a word with you?"
Xie Chen said nothing, a layer of coldness covering his deep eyebrows and eyes, staring at Taran. Taran's scalp numbed by his gaze, but he still looked at Lin Shuge stubbornly.
Lin Shuge was unaware of the two's little tricks, he just felt that the atmosphere suddenly became tense, he said to Xie Chen in a soothing tone: "Zhongxuan, I'm a little hungry, go buy me some food."
Xie Chen glanced at him, raised his eyebrows, and remained silent, as if he wanted to compete with Taran. Lin Shuge had no choice but to pull him aside and coax him in a low voice for several words. Only then did Xie Chen let him go and strode towards the food stall not far away.
Taran looked at the two of them with an inexplicable emotion in his eyes, "Master Lin, I..."
Lin Shuge sighed and walked with him to a willow tree. It was not spring yet and the branches were bare. Only the shadows on the ground looked quite poetic.
"Your Highness, did you have a good time today?" Lin Shuge asked first.
Taran nodded and whispered, "Master Lin, I saw it."
"What did you see?" Lin Shuge was shocked. Could it be that he and Xie Chen were seen kissing? Oh my god, why is it that every time we get intimate during this period, it happens to be so coincidental.
"Master Lin, you and Master Wei... I... I just..."
Lin Shuge wondered in his heart: Why is the little prince so strange tonight? I also have a stuttering problem.
Just as he was about to speak to comfort her, Taran's face turned red, and he blurted out as if he had been struggling for a long time, "Lord Lin, I feel the same way about you and Lord Wei. I know I am a step late, but this may be my last time to come to Dayan. If I don't say it, I will never have another chance."
Lin Shuge seemed to be struck by lightning at this moment, and it took him a long time to find his voice, "Your Highness, are you kidding me? Just like Ale..."
"No, how could I joke about such a thing? Al was just helping me test you. I'm sorry." Taran lowered his head and said softly.
Lin Shuge sighed heavily. What was going on? Why did everyone become gay? He was thankful in his heart that Zhongxuan didn't hear it, otherwise it would be difficult to coax him.
"Ever since you saved me last time, I have been thinking about you since I returned to Xiye. Later, I heard people say that this is love. I came to you this time to express my feelings to you, but you already have Lord Wei."
Lin Shuge laughed and walked towards him step by step. Taran was frightened by him, and his whole body was as hard as the blade that Liu Xing had someone hit him with some time ago.
Lin Shuge took another step closer and whispered in his ear, "Do you still like it like this?" Then he reached out and smoothed his slightly messy hair behind his ears.
Talansha jumped up immediately, his face flushed, his eyes full of disbelief. He stammered for a long time and couldn't utter a word. When he saw Lin Shuge took another step forward, he was so scared that he jumped several meters away.
"Your Highness, why did you just say you liked me, but now you're looking at me like a monster?" Lin Shuge smiled and looked at him with his arms folded. "Okay, I won't joke with you anymore, Your Highness. You've seen it too. This is not love at all. If you like someone, how could you resist him getting close to you?"
"I...I'm just not used to you..."
"Your Highness, do you want me to do it again?" Lin Shuge was about to move, and Taran was frightened and said quickly: "Lord Lin, please let me take a break first."
Lin Shuge looked at Taran with clear eyes, "Your Highness, I once heard someone say that when you meet someone in a critical moment, you will mistake the accelerated heartbeat caused by the emergency for falling in love with that person, but later you will find that it was just a misunderstanding. This is the case with Your Highness. Because I helped you when you were isolated and helpless, you misunderstood this emotion as being interested in me."
"Is that really the case?" Taran asked skeptically.
"How else can you explain your behavior just now?"
"You and Lord Wei..." Taran said before realizing what a stupid question he had asked. He even caught the two of them kissing, which shows how close they are in private.
"Your Highness, you will meet someone you won't be able to resist. Zhongxuan must be waiting impatiently, so I have to go find him." Whenever Lin Shuge mentioned Xie Chen, there was always a hint of tenderness on his face.
Taran certainly didn't miss the change in his expression at that moment. "I'm sorry, we have caused you a lot of trouble, and so has Ale. We will apologize to you and Lord Wei."
Lin Shuge shook his head, turned around and saw that Xie Chen, who had been sitting on the street, had suddenly disappeared. He said, "Your Highness, don't worry about it. I'm going to find him."
Taran looked at his hurried figure, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he raised his hand to touch his heart, shouted "Ale" to the back, and went back with him.
Lin Shuge trotted all the way to the stall where Xie Chen had just been, and saw that there were only diners sitting and eating, but Xie Chen was nowhere to be seen.
"Isn't this Lord Lin? Lord, would you like a bowl of noodles?" The boss saw Lin Shuge and walked up to him and asked politely.
"No need, Boss. Did you see the captain just now?"
One of the diners asked, "But that lord who looked so majestic was just here, attracting many ladies to come and eat noodles. How come he disappeared in the blink of an eye?"
Another diner said: "I saw him going that way."
Lin Shuge: “Thank you all.” After saying that, he ran in the direction the diner pointed.
"Why is Lord Lin so anxious? I left before I could even say a few words to him. I wanted to treat him to a bowl of noodles. Thanks to Lord Lin, my family is living a good life this year." The diner who was pointing the way sighed.
A diner also said, "I have quietly asked the boss to go downstairs, but he left so quickly. Lord Lin and Lord Wei must have a really good relationship." Look, he got so anxious after just a short while.
Lin Shuge walked all the way to an alley, and was looking around anxiously when suddenly a strong force attacked him from behind. Lin Shuge was shocked. It was dark and he couldn't see the face of the villain, but he felt that he was tall. He tried his best to break free, but his hands were grabbed above his head. He opened his mouth to speak, but felt that the man pinched his chin hard, and his lips were instantly wet.
Lin Shuge was forced to raise his head and endure the kisses that were like a storm. He was almost out of breath and could only make pitiful whimpers. However, the villain had no mercy at all. He even sucked his lips hard and slowly probed his tongue inside.
Lin Shuge took advantage of his moment of oblivion and tried his best to free his hand, but was suppressed by the other party. Lin Shuge was so angry that he bit him. The man felt the pain and finally let go of him a little.
"Wei Zhongxuan." Lin Shuge gritted his teeth.
Xie Chen said nothing. Only a vague outline could be seen in the darkness. He was like a sculpture, motionless, as if the person he had just hugged and bit was not him.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Lin Shuge called out again, and found that Xie Chen still didn't speak or move, only the hand around his waist was burning hot.
Okay, you don’t want to talk, right? Then let’s just wait it out.
The moon was at its zenith, and the noise in the distance gradually died down. Lin Shuge could no longer bear it, and pried open his hands from his waist. He raised his foot to leave, but someone grabbed his sleeve. The moon's shadow was slanted by the wind, and the cold moonlight was reluctant to shine here. Lin Shuge saw that Xie Chen's eyes were red, and when he saw him looking at him, he turned his head away in shame.
"Ah, I was scared to death by you but I didn't cry, why are you crying?"
Xie Chen tried his best to hide the paranoia and madness in his heart, and said in a low voice, "Just now, I saw it."
