Chapter 94
Lin Shuge only felt a warmth on his lips, with a hint of pear blossom fragrance, which was the taste of the wine Xie Chen had just drunk. Before he could think of anything else, he felt his lips being touched cautiously, as if with a mixture of restraint and possessiveness. His head was buzzing like thunder, his eyes widened, and he tried hard to break free from Xie Chen's grasp. However, Xie Chen noticed his intention, and his movements suddenly became fierce.
Lin Shuge uttered two "hmm" sounds, and Xie Chen took advantage of the opportunity to pry open his teeth and reach in. He kissed him like a storm, making him breathless. He could only feel Xie Chen's hand pulling at his waist and reaching down.
He gathered all his strength, took advantage of his moment of oblivion, pushed him away, raised his hand and slapped him, cursing: "You...you have no sense of shame."
Xie Chen's eyes were shining as he gently licked the blood on the tip of his tongue. He looked at him with tears in his eyes, spring in the corners of his eyes, his body trembling slightly, and he looked like he was breathless from his kiss. The bad feeling in his heart immediately came out. He didn't care about anything else. He would just beat him. He would let him kiss him once and he would be beaten as much as he wanted.
After the fight, Lin Shuge felt a little regretful when he saw the red marks on Xie Chen's face. When he looked up, he saw him staring at him with lust in his eyes. He was so angry that he said, "I am your brother." Then he left in a huff.
Xie Chen caught the flash of heartache in his eyes, and the smile in his eyes became even wider. "Brother, I have treated you like this and you still feel sorry for me. How can I let go? You really like me."
He caught up with him in a few steps. Lin Shuge was like a cat with its fur standing on end. He immediately said in surprise, "You are not allowed to follow me."
Xie Chen stood a few steps away from him, "Brother, if you go out like this, others will misunderstand you."
Lin Shuge immediately looked down at his clothes and saw that the collar was crooked. He didn't know whether it was caused by the two of them just rubbing it open or by someone pulling it open. There were also large patches of grass juice on his sleeves, probably from being rubbed on the grass just now. He stretched out his hand to fix it for a long time but failed, and he was so angry that his face turned red.
As soon as Xie Chen stretched out his hand, he was slapped away by the angry Lin Shuge. He said aggrievedly: "Brother, I want to help you."
"No need." He took off his outer robe in two or three steps, turned and left.
Xie Chen watched him from afar as he met up with Lu Yuechuan and the others, walked over to pack up the food box, and strolled towards the tent.
In the camp, the soldiers had already eaten and drunk their fill, and except for the tent on duty, all other lights had been extinguished. As soon as he walked over, he saw Lao Zhang smiling at him mysteriously.
Xie Chen was in a good mood at the moment. He handed the food box to him and walked to his tent with the wine.
"Captain Tunnel, don't go. What's going on? Judging from your expression, has it worked?" Old Zhang slapped his thigh. "I told you that you have to reveal some shocking information. County Magistrate Lin seems to be tactful and decisive, but in fact, in this regard, you have to force him to tell the truth. How will he react? Captain Tunnel, please say something."
Xie Chen walked to the front of the tent and said, "Are you done? I need to rest now. You can leave now."
Old Zhang's face was dull, "Captain, you are boring now."
What he got in response was a closed door and the candlelight went out in an instant. Lao Zhang was so anxious that he scratched his head, but there was nothing he could do. He could only go back to bed angrily.
After Xie Chen lay down, he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. His mind was full of the kiss today. He pressed his brother down on the grass and kissed him wildly. All of his brother's screams and impatience were swallowed into his mouth, as if the two were born to be so close.
The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't sleep. The more he thought about it, the more energetic he became. He simply got up and busy himself for a while, then went straight to the county government office.
Lin Shuge was also tossing and turning, not knowing whether to lament the loss of his first kiss or how the brotherhood had developed in this direction. Could it be that I didn't know that I was gay all these years?
How else could he explain why he didn't feel disgusted by what Xie Chen did? Inside he only felt panic, helplessness and shame for his immorality. He tried to replace Xie Chen's face with someone else, but it wouldn't work. He felt physically uncomfortable. Was Zhongxuan the only one who could do it?
Oh my God, he lay on the bed wailing, once he traveled through time, he actually embarked on the path of harming the flowers of the motherland.
No, no, no, it must be that the brat was too good at bewitching people, and he was just bewitched for the time being. He was picking on Xie Chen's looks in his mind, like a scholar who was bewitched by a fox demon but was trying his best to make amends.
He turned around and heard a click outside the window, and then someone jumped in from the window.
Lin Shuge sat up with an expressionless face and looked at him quietly.
Xie Chen was startled, "Brother, why are you scaring me?"
I just want to scare you to death, you little thief who stays up late at night and climbs through other people's windows.
"Brother, are you still angry? Why don't you hit me again to vent your anger?" Xie Chen walked over step by step, and Lin Shuge immediately blocked the bed with a quilt, "You are not allowed to come over."
Xie Chen paused for a moment, then walked over a few steps, looked at him in the moonlight, and saw that his face was full of vigilance. He said casually: "Brother, I will leave tomorrow."
While Lin Shuge was hesitating for a moment, he quickly came over and sat next to Lin Shuge, "Brother, don't be afraid, I won't touch you now."
Lin Shuge felt a surge of anger in his chest, and Xie Chen was sensitive enough to sense it. He immediately stood up and said, "Brother, I am so happy." He placed his hands in front of Lin Shuge, "Brother really likes me."
Lin Shuge was shocked by his shamelessness and said, "You, get out."
"I'll leave after I finish speaking. Now I know what my brother is worried about. If I grow up in a few years and still like my brother as much as I do today, will he agree?"
"That's not it……"
Lin Shuge wondered where he got this idea from. He always thought that he had to learn to do serious work before he became an adult, not fall in love. Looking at Xie Chen who was so love-minded, he wanted to bring him back to the right path.
"Oh, what is that? It can't be because I'm not a woman again? It's useless for me to tell this lie at this time." Xie Chenqing emphasized the last two words, his eyes fixed on Lin Shuge's lips.
Lin Shuge was burned by his gaze, but fortunately he played tricks to the end and lay down on his side, "I'm sleepy, you can leave as soon as you finish your words."
"Brother really doesn't look at me, I have to leave."
Lin Shuge heard the footsteps and turned over. A figure moved slightly in the darkness, and his lips felt warm. This time, it was as quick as a dragonfly touching the water. "Brother, wait for me to come back."
Lin Shuge was stunned as he watched Xie Chen jump out of the window with a light leap. It took him a long while to come back to his senses. He reached out and touched his lips, feeling ashamed and angry.
The next morning, Lin Shuge got up from the bed angrily with dark circles under his eyes. Feeling depressed, he quickly got dressed and prepared to go out, but he saw something extra on the table. He walked over and picked it up, and a note caught his eye. The handwriting was so clear that one could tell whose handwriting it was.
First, she apologized, saying that she had to go back to the military camp and could not spend Lin Shuge's birthday with him, but she hoped he would like the birthday gift. Then she said a few sweet words to him. Lin Shuge felt embarrassed and angry, and pushed the note away, thinking that out of sight, out of mind.
After sitting for a while, he couldn't resist his curiosity and picked up the thing under the note. It looked like a book. He opened it and saw that it contained drawings of all the events that had happened between him and Xie Chen along the way.
The first painting was when the three brothers and sisters first met and saved Xie Chen on a snowy day. It should be Xie Chen's imagination based on his description. The outline of the person in the painting was sketched with just a few strokes, which was very vivid. There were a few words written next to it, saying that he was saved on a certain day in a certain year, followed by a few random thoughts.
He flipped through the pages one by one. There were scenes when Xie Chen woke up, scenes when they first separated, and later on, most of them were what he saw, heard, and felt in the Eternal Tunnel, including the vast sea of clouds and the vast Gobi Desert, as well as the starry sky and the bright moon.
It seemed that he had been preparing for a long time. Lin Shuge didn't know what was going on in his heart. He turned the page and his eyes suddenly widened, with a slight redness on his ears. This shameless guy had no shame. He actually painted what happened last night and even wrote a few lines of poetry next to it. Although the painting was very blurry, he could recognize it at a glance.
As if it was a hot potato, he pushed the draft out in frustration, but unexpectedly a piece of paper fell out. This time, the words written on it were very heartwarming, like the Zhong Xuan of the past, not at all as shameless as he is now.
He finally saw through it. He used to think that he was simple-minded, just a little clingy and jealous. Now he knew that the brat had a bad heart, but he kept it in the dark. Thinking back to the past, Zhou Du had reminded him several times, but he turned a deaf ear to it. He regretted it so much.
He packed up his things with a stern face and secretly put them at the bottom of the deepest box in the room. If Ayuan or Axuan accidentally saw them, he would be dead.
There was a noise outside the house. Lin Shuge pushed open the door and prepared to wash up. It was important to do the business. It was important to do the business.
"Brother, did you just get up? Why is your face so red? I just heard from Mr. Lu that Erlang has left with the soldiers of the Eternal Tunnel. How come he didn't even say hello to us?" Lin Qingyuan had just finished washing up and was holding a book in his hand. He was about to go to Lu Yuechuan for advice, but when he saw that his brother's face looked strange, he asked.
They had just arrived in Qingquan County and had not yet found a suitable academy, so Lu Yuechuan was temporarily giving the twins some guidance on their studies when he was free.
Lin Shuge couldn't bear to listen to Xie Chen now, and snorted coldly: "If he wants to leave, he can leave."
Lin Qingyuan was so frightened that he turned around and knocked on Lin Xuan's door. Oh no, his eldest brother and Erlang had a big conflict.
Lin Shuge walked into the county magistrate's office in a sullen mood. Lu Yuechuan was busy there. He looked up and saw that it was him. He asked, "Why didn't you go to see off the guard today?"
Lin Shuge: “…”
Why does everyone ask?
"I have something to do." Lin Shuge replied.
Lu Yuechuan said with a smile: "Your Excellency is usually gentle and polite to others, and looks very steady. Today, I saw that you can also quarrel with others."
"No, it's not true. Has the Chivalrous Ode been printed?"
"It has been printed and sent out. Xiangli Gu has been working on this these days. One copy is printed at a time. Thousands of copies have been sent out. We guarantee that everyone who can read in Qingquan County will know that Yang Yanyong went to Huya Mountain to cooperate with the county government to catch all the bullies in one fell swoop." Lu Yuechuan took out a copy and showed it to him.
Lin Shuge took it and took a look. It was indeed written with great literary talent, worthy of being the great talent of Lu.
"Oh, and arrange the repertoire as well. It doesn't matter if it's a little simple, as it has to be so that even illiterate people can understand it." Lin Shuge instructed.
Lin Shuge planned to stage two scenes of bravely fighting against the bandits in Huya Mountain. Firstly, to establish a name for Yang Yan, secondly, to dispel the prestige of the county government which had long been damaged, and thirdly, the streets of Qingquan County were deserted, which could stimulate some consumption.
Lu Yuechuan crossed his arms and looked at him. Lin Shuge glanced at him and said, "I won't let you write it alone. The county government is short of people. Let's find a group of people first."
Only then did Lu Yuechuan feel relieved and continued to work.
