Chapter 34 Chapter 34 You Owe Me a Kiss
The college student who had just entered college had no experience. He could neither grab a plane ticket nor a train sleeper berth, and he thought the soft sleeper berth was too expensive, so he could only take a ten-hour train to City C, arriving at 7:30 in the morning.
Qi Yan woke up at six o'clock today, and simply sent a message to his cousin, preparing to pick them up for breakfast and then come back to rest.
[Eat, eat, eat!] Brother, I’m almost starving. I felt so light-headed from shaking in the car. We spent the whole night looking at the map and checking the time. It was so painful! I wish I could fly over there right away. I feel like vomiting when I smell instant noodles, but I’m so hungry. I really want to get off the train and get some fresh air, so I can eat crab roe buns, fried dumplings, steamed buns, wontons, fried dough sticks, soy milk, pot stickers…]
After sitting on the train swaying all night, the person already regretted choosing the hard seat. As soon as he saw Qi Yan's message, his dizzy brain woke up and he ordered food on his mobile phone in advance.
Qi Yan: [……]
He estimated that it would only take half an hour to get there, so he was in no hurry. He let his phone ring and got up to wash up.
Just when Chen Xiliu from next door knocked on the door and asked him what he wanted to eat for breakfast, he knew that he was going to pick someone up, so he said, "Then why don't we go together? I've already reserved a table. In that case, let's go and eat together?"
Qi Yan wanted to refuse, but after looking at him, he smiled and said, "Okay, I'll trouble you. I don't have a car, but my cousin wants to eat crab roe buns, pan-fried dumplings, and steamed dumplings... Let me choose the seat."
“That’s a lot of food I want to eat…” Shen Xiliu listened to Qi Yan reciting a long list, and it was indeed not appropriate to go to the place he had reserved.
Qi Yan shook his head and said, "Not quite a lot, but a lot. He can eat a lot. He is not picky about food. He likes to eat anything that is edible. One meal is enough for the whole family. If he didn't exercise much more than a normal person, he would probably be a 'tall, strong, black, fat, glutton' by now. The above words come from his younger sister, and he agrees very much."
Only family members would harm their own family members like this.
"That sounds a bit exaggerated." Shen Xiliu listened carefully. He remembered that the child was somewhat similar to Qi Yan, but their personalities were completely different.
Qi Yan noticed his expression and said, "It's not an exaggeration. You'll know when you see it later."
On the way there, Qi Yan took the opportunity to tell Shen Xiliu about his family members by using his cousin's story as an excuse. In addition to my mother, there are my grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins, a total of eight people in my family.
“Mr. Shen, don’t you ask me why I still have grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins?”
Qi Yan was driving the car. His mother, Xia Yunqie, was the only daughter of the Xia family. After her parents died, she was forced to leave the house because of her divorce from Yi Hongli. Logically speaking, she has nothing except Qi Yan.
Shen Xiliu sat in the passenger seat, pushed up his glasses, smiled sideways and said, “Aren’t you telling me that?”
He put on the pair of black-framed glasses again, which just happened to cover the three black moles under his left eye, and his smile mitigated the innate arrogance on his face.
"Indeed." Qi Yan smiled. When entering the PHY Scientific Research Institute, one needs to submit information and materials. Shen Xiliu must have seen it. After all, he knows him so well.
"This is not something that cannot be discussed. In fact, my mother is not the biological daughter of Grandpa Xia and Grandma Xia."
The Xia couple actually did not have any children. When they went to the welfare home in their hometown to do charity work, they happened to meet a three-year-old girl who was sent by the police station. I heard that his father died in a car accident and there was no one at home, so he was sent to an orphanage to be raised, and then he was met by the kind-hearted Xia couple.
Qi Yan's peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and he told him something that was not a secret in a calm tone: "The man who died that year was a human trafficker. He died in a car accident on the way to 'delivery'. My mother escaped because of this, but she also lost her identity."
I don’t know whether to say she was lucky or unlucky. She was abducted by human traffickers when she was three years old. The trafficker died in a car accident soon after. She thus escaped from the traffickers, but she was also frightened by the car accident and could not remember anything. The police mistook her identity, causing her family to completely lose the opportunity to find her.
Feeling sorry for the little girl, the Xia couple adopted her, named her Xia Yunqie, and took her back to S City, unaware that her biological parents were still looking for her.
It has been more than 20 years since they last met, but Xia Yunqie's biological parents have never given up looking for her. Until by chance, Qi Jingsheng, who came to S city on a business trip, discovered that she was almost identical to his mother when she was young. Thinking of his abducted sister, he became suspicious and began to investigate. Thus, their long-lost family was reunited.
"Actually, it's a good thing that my uncle showed up in time, otherwise my mother and I would probably have died." Qi Yan said. They were originally monitored by Yi Hongli's men, and almost no one dared to approach them and help them, and they almost died.
Shen Xiliu looked at the smile on his face, and his expression was particularly gentle when he talked about his family: "Qi Yan, you must be very happy now, right?"
"Well, of course I'm happy." Qi Yan parked the car on the side of the road and lowered the window. "Mr. Shen, look over there, the one in the middle, my brother. He looks very similar to me, right?"
There was no coldness and indifference when talking about the Yi family. Instead, he introduced his family to his lover with joy and a hint of impatience. Qi Yan is not a hot-blooded fool, he is just unique towards the people he likes. He is always sincere and enthusiastic and rarely hides anything.
Shen Xiliu wondered, why had he been such a blind, arrogant and self-righteous fool, turning a blind eye to all this?
Staring at Qi Yan's profile, the morning sunlight fell on that handsome face, adding a golden hazy warmth to the deep contours. His pupil color was more gentle in the sunlight, with a charming luster, making those passionate peach blossom eyes become pure and soft.
Shen Xiliu's breathing almost stopped for a moment, as if he could hear his heart beating rapidly because of this sincerity. Suppressing this emotion, he looked in the direction where Qi Yan's finger was pointing -
Three boys were leaning against each other in an untidy manner, yawning continuously. The one in the middle was the tallest and darkest, with eyes as bright as cold stars. He was exceptionally handsome but showed a mouthful of white teeth. He looked expectantly at the cars passing by.
"It's true that they are a little similar, but in my eyes, you are the prettiest." Shen Xiliu slowly raised the corners of his lips. What a good start, no misunderstandings, no conspiracies, no bad attitudes...
Qi Yan turned around and whispered, "Well, don't say such things in front of my brother later, or he will laugh at you for the rest of your life..."
"No problem, this is just a secret between the two of us." Shen Xiliu leaned closer to him, put his hand on his shoulder, looked up at him, and kissed his cheek naturally under Qi Yan's gaze.
The soft lips separated at the touch, as if being gently teased by a feather. The feeling was not real enough, but a tingling feeling spread from the kiss, with a light orchid scent that made people's heart beat.
“You didn’t dodge this time.” Shen Xiliu stared at him from bottom to top, his eyes through the lenses were particularly gentle.
"Since he's your boyfriend, there's no need to hide, right?" Qi Yan stared at Shen Xiliu, hesitated for a moment, reached out to hold his face, his fingers were warm and slow, and his head slowly moved down, as if he wanted to kiss him back.
"Ah! I see you, bro!"
Before the kiss fell, a familiar voice rang out like thunder. Qi Yan sat up straight and looked out the window seemingly calmly, almost forgetting that his brother was outside.
The boy standing on the roadside looked over with sharp eyes, and accurately found Qi Yan who had lowered his window among the cars, and waved from a distance: "Brother, we are here!!"
The voice is loud and very powerful.
Mingming and Qi Yan have the same charming peach blossom eyes, and they look similar from certain angles, but they give people completely different feelings.
"Hahahaha, brother, hurry up, take us to have breakfast. I'm really hungry! I underestimated the appetite of the three of us. The suitcase of food we brought on the train was totally not enough. I've been hungry for most of the night. Thank you so much for picking me up. Now I'm just waiting to have breakfast!"
The cousin and his two friends ran over excitedly, with bright and sunny smiles on their faces. The two friends next to them also hurriedly greeted Qi Yan.
"Hey, hello, Brother Yan!" The boy with a crew cut greeted with a smile.
"Brother Yan, I'm sorry to bother you by coming here with Xiao Qi." Another more reserved boy also said.
"It's nothing. It's more fun when more people come and play together."
The few people who had chatted on the mobile phone video before were quite familiar with each other. When the cousin saw Shen Xiliu coming out from the other side, before Qi Yan introduced her, he asked with bright eyes: "Brother, is this your girlfriend?"
He recognized the omega at first sight. Qi Yan was used to keeping a distance from omegas, but now there was an omega other than a family member sitting in the passenger seat, and his cousin understood immediately.
Qi Yan and Shen Xiliu looked at each other and laughed: "Well, my boyfriend is Shen Xiliu. Xiliu, this is my cousin Qi..."
"Hello, Brother Chen. My name is Qi Ge. It means "Ge" in "Jinge Tiema" and "Ge" in "Gobi Desert"!" Qi Ge interrupted and introduced himself enthusiastically. "If you call me by my name, whether it's Qi Ge or Xiao Ge, it seems like I'm taking advantage of you. If you want to blame someone, just blame my dad for giving me such a 'nice name'. So just call me Xiao Qi!"
"And these are my two good friends, Zhao Xingye and Meng Xiao. Come on, brothers, introduce yourselves. Don't be shy. Since you are my brother's girlfriend, you are my future family."
Qi Ge greeted everyone in a particularly familiar manner, patted the introverted Meng Xiao on the shoulder, and asked them to greet each other together.
Zhao Xingye didn't care and greeted him with a smile. Meng Xiao glanced at Shen Xiliu and felt that he had a very unapproachable temperament: "Uh, Brother Chen, hello, sorry to bother you two."
“You’re welcome. The three of you must be very tired after sitting on the train for such a long time. Come on board. We’ll take you to eat something first, and then go back to rest.” Shen Xiliu gave them a perfect smile, so gentle that if You Yi appeared here and saw this smile, he would deny that this was not his brother.
"Okay! We only have one suitcase, which was originally used to store food, but now it's all gone. It's totally not enough for three people!"
Watching the three of them getting on the car, Qi Yan said to Shen Xiliu, "This guy is so proactive. I originally wanted to say that his name is very similar to You Yi's, except for that extra stroke. It's quite a coincidence."
"This kind of thing isn't important." Shen Xiliu gently grabbed the corner of Qi Yan's clothes, approached him, and said teasingly: "Qi Yan, you were too much just now."
She was clearly about to kiss him, but when she heard her brother's voice, she sat up straight as if nothing had happened. It was a pity that he was looking forward to it so much.
Qi Yan was also a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say. Shen Xiliu narrowed his eyes at him and said with a smile: "It seems that you also know that this kind of interruption is not good. I won't bother with you for now, but you owe me a kiss, and I will get it back at any time."
“…”
After saying this, Shen Xiliu got into the car quite happily, leaving Qi Yan to criticize himself. The opponent's attack was so fierce, but he was so shy. Wasn't he feeling too sorry for his experience of hanging out in bars since his freshman year?
But this is the first time in all these years that he has been so close to an omega, and also his own boyfriend. It must be very difficult for him to keep a normal mentality and not be so aroused that his heart beats wildly, right?
"Damn, this car is so cool!"
Qi Ge got into the car carrying the only suitcase and noticed the space inside. It was very spacious and luxurious, completely different from an ordinary car.
"Brother, are you rich?" He was touching and rubbing it, and it felt very good.
"No, I'm using my boyfriend's car." Qi Yan didn't even blink. As long as there was a third person present, he could act very calm because of his image. He could even calmly say to Shen Xiliu, "Didn't I just say that we shouldn't use this business car? He's very naughty, don't let him damage your car."
"That's too much. My strength is not that exaggerated, right? It's just a few more touches. You actually stepped on your own brother in front of your future partner. Don't you even know to save face for me?" Qi Ge said.
Qi Yan began to recall, muttering: "When I was ten, who broke my little sister's pink bicycle? When I was twelve, who drove my uncle's motorcycle into the field? And when I was fifteen..."
"Stop, stop, stop! You said it was when I was ten, twelve, and fifteen. I'm eighteen now. I'm no longer that kid who only gets into trouble!"
"Is there any difference? Do you need me to remind you about this summer vacation? I didn't step on the brakes when taking the second driving test and almost hit..."
"Ahhh, don't mention it. I didn't even pass the second test. It's so painful! Brother, you were the same at the beginning. When you took the third test, you just raced with your instructor..."
The two of them quarreled with each other all the way, exposing each other's shortcomings and talking nonsense, and their dark history kept popping up. Zhao Xingye and Meng Xiao would say a few words of support from time to time.
Chen Xiliu was listening with his face propped up beside him. He didn't disturb them at all and instead felt like he was enjoying it.
Even though his younger brother was a troublesome creature and had even interrupted his kiss with Qi Yan, Qi Yan still owed him a kiss, and he could find a better atmosphere to get it back next time.
Moreover, Shen Xiliu really enjoyed listening to Qi Ge talk about Qi Yan's childhood. This kid was at least much better than the middle school boy at home who kept shouting about his dreams and fighting against his uncle.
