The longer some things are suppressed, the more enthusiastic they become when they are released. This is true of desires, and so are feelings.

Li Shuo was still afraid of touching Zhao Jinxin’s hand and his movements were a bit careful. But Zhao Jinxin was unscrupulous, kissing his cheek and lips frantically, feeling Li Shuo’s temperature with all of his enthusiasm and concentration.

Emotions gradually got out of control and intensified. It was so quiet in the middle of the night. The sound of the other person’s breathing was connected to the other’s own heartbeat, and each beat was in the depths of the soul. It seemed that the whole world was left only for each other.

But at the peak, Zhao Jinxin suddenly stopped all his movements. His eyes were hidden behind the sweaty bangs, adding a bit of mystery. He stroked Li Shuo’s red cheeks and said softly: “Actually, I have a doubt.”

Li Shuo was sitting on Zhao Jinxin. At this time, he was in a state of disorientation, muddled like an ant, and his heart was beating too fast. His excessive heartbeat made his chest rise and fall violently. He twisted his body uncomfortably and gritted his teeth and asked, “…doubt?”

“Yes.” Zhao Jinxin looked at Li Shuo without blinking. “I didn’t tell anyone about my injury. Almost no one in the company knew about it either. Ken, we are no longer in contact, and he is even less likely to know.” He thrusted in a bit gently, causing Li Shuo to shudder.

Li Shuo took a deep breath and grinned: “Is that so?”

“I asked him, and he said that he received a text message from an unfamiliar number that told him about my injury in the tone of a mutual friend.” Zhao Jinxin narrowed his eyes and said, “Should I check whose number that is?”

“No need.” Li Shuo leaned down, printed a kiss on Zhao Jinxin’s red lips, and said softly, “Yes, it’s me.” He didn’t even use a different number. He knew Zhao Jinxin would check it out, and he wanted him to find out.

Zhao Jinxin did not speak but opened his mouth and bit Li Shuo’s lower lip. The strength was not light nor heavy, but it was enough for Li Shuo to feel a bit of tingling pain.

Li Shuo used his fingertips to trace Zhao Jinxin’s eyebrows and spoke in a hoarse and soft tone: “I just want you to know that if you’re lying, you can’t hide it from me. Regardless of whether I love you or I don’t give a fuck about you, if you lie, I will know. So don’t try to be smart.”

Zhao Jinxin’s eyes changed, he got up and pressed Li Shuo under his body. He grinned, his smile was full of excitement in anger and his expression was extremely complicated: “Uncle Li is so bad.”

Li Shuo grabbed the back of his neck, pressed his head down forcibly and kissed him hard. He then said vaguely: “It’s not as bad as if you stop now…”

Zhao Jinxin did not hesitate for a moment and began a fierce thrusting again. Li Shuo felt that his body was no longer under his control from the inside out.

“I’m not mistaken. We, as expected, are a good match.” Zhao Jinxin hated that Li Shuo could never be locked in his own world so that he would not be able to go out to seduce others. It is because this person would make someone want to possess him.

When Li Shuo was sinking, he tightly grasped Zhao Jinxin’s arm and looked at him with misty eyes: “If you regret it now… it’s too late.”

“Regret?” Zhao Jinxin’s gaze was very determined, “I regret not proposing to you the first time I saw you.”

When Li Shuo was nearly defeated by the intense emotions, he still smiled pretentiously, “Will you still dare to lie to me?”

“I don’t dare, I will never dare.” Zhao Jinxin pinched his chin and kissed his lips repeatedly.

Li Shuo showed a vague smile as he held onto Zhao Jinxin’s neck tightly, indulging himself into the sweet and sinful abyss.

The two had sex for most of the night and finally hugged each other to sleep. Due to too much physical exertion, no one got up early the next day. When they woke up, it was already almost noon.

Zhao Jinxin always looks like an angel when he is not having sex. He was really clingy in Li Shuo’s arms and he refuses to get out of bed or let Li Shuo get out of bed.

Li Shuo looked at his watch and said lazily: “It’s almost noon, aren’t you hungry?”

“We can order food.”

“If you don’t tell your mother you ran out, she would be anxious. You should go back.”

“I’ll call her in a while and she won’t be anxious when she knows that I definitely went looking for you.”

“Then I have to get up too.” Li Shuo said helplessly.

“If we get up, you will tell me to go home.” Zhao Jinxin hugged Li Shuo’s waist and shook his head, “I don’t want to go home, don’t drive me away.”

“We’ve agreed about this.”

“I know, but I just stayed overnight, it does not mean living together.”

“Now one night has already passed.”

“It doesn’t count as already past without getting out of bed.” Zhao Jinxin entangled Li Shuo with his hands and feet, “What do you want to eat, I will ask my assistant to bring it here.”

“Bring it to the bed?”

Zhao Jinxin nodded seriously.

Li Shuo twisted Zhao Jinxin’s ears: “Get up.”

Zhao Jinxin sat up reluctantly as Li Shuo got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash.

After Li Shuo washed his face and brushed his teeth, he came out to see that Zhao Jinxin was still in bed. He hugged his chest and looked at Zhao Jinxin: “Are you going to spend the whole day in bed?”

Zhao Jinxin rolled on the bed: “I’m sleepy.”

Li Shuo sat down by the bed, trying to pull him up: “Get up, you have to go to the hospital to change the dressing today to see how the wound is healing okay. I’m worried that yesterday we… just in case it splits.”

“It was great yesterday.” Zhao Jinxin licked his lips, “It’s worth it to be split.”

Li Shuo patted his head: “Get up.”

Zhao Jinxin hugged his waist, still shaking his head.

“Whatever happened to you…”

Zhao Jinxin was silent for a long time before he said: “How sure were you when you brought Ken over?”

“……What do you mean?”

“You know what I mean.”

Li Shuo put his fingers into Zhao Jinxin’s thick hair, stroked it lightly, and said calmly: “Half-half.”

Zhao Jin smiled rigidly and said: “It seems that you really have no credibility for me in your heart.”

“What are you talking about?.” Li Shuo actually didn’t want to continue this topic. After all, his behavior was not glorious. He sighed: “I wasn’t righteous. But this matter is a knot in my heart. If I don’t untie it, it will remain as a knot in my heart. Sooner or later, something might happen. Better to untie it earlier to prevent this knot from becoming a bomb in the future.”

“I understand.” Zhao Jinxin closed his eyes and smiled bitterly, “At that time, I wanted to restore whatever little good image of me in your heart, even a little… but the result is just getting worse and worse…”

Li Shuo lowered his head and kissed his hair: “After I only care about you, I want you to belong only to me, that’s enough.”

Zhao Jinxin tightened his arms and said in a low voice, “I’m so young, I’m already in your hands.”

Li Shuo smiled: “I said, you can regret it at any time.”

Zhao Jinxin raised his head: “And I also said, what I regret most is that I did not propose to you at the first sight of you. It is clear that you meet all my ideals.”

Li Shuo smiled: “I’m a little curious, why do you like someone older than you?”

“I don’t know, why do you like men?”

“Innate.”

“Yes, it was innate.” Zhao Jinxin kissed him, “I innately will have fallen for you.”

Li Shuo smiled more and more: “Now you should get up. I will take you to the hospital and then take you home.”

“Then you go to my house for dinner and make up for yesterday’s meal.”

“All right.”

“It just so happens that my parents are at home. They want to talk about the two of us.”

Li Shuo was choked: “What are you talking about?”

“They want to talk to you.” Zhao Jinxin shrugged, “Why? Are you scared?”

Li Shuo was silent for a moment: “I’m not afraid. I just feel that it is not a suitable time.”

Zhao Jinxin blinked his eyes.

Li Shuo squeezed his face: “Jin Xin, have you forgotten what we are doing now? We have done all that should have been done but we have also given up time and time again in order to rebuild trust. Until then trust is completely rebuilt, I will not talk to your parents about our affairs.”

Zhao Jinxin lowered his eyes and concealed the uneasiness in his eyes. He pursed his lips and smiled: “You are right, it’s just me… and my parents, we are a little impatient.”

Li Shuo couldn’t help but hug him and said with a light sigh, “We were too impatient before. This time, we will take it slowly. You also want to be clear and I also want to be clear. This life is too long.”

“Yeah.” Zhao Jinxin couldn’t hide the disappointment in his eyes but still felt relieved in his heart. After all, he was extremely satisfied to be able to embrace this person again. Compared with that dim, desperate, and crazy time, the sadness at this time can still be redeemed.

Zhao Jinxin was finally dragged out of bed by Li Shuo. The two simply cooked a bowl of noodles. After eating, Li Shuo drove him to the hospital.

When changing the dressing, Zhao Jinxin kept shrinking in Li Shuo’s arms and shouting in pain. It caused Li Shuo to be so distressed that he didn’t know what to do so he could only comfort him softly. The 60 year-old-something doctor couldn’t stand it anymore and regardless of Zhao Jinxin’s special status, he criticized him for being squeamish and not acting like a man.

Li Shuo was a little embarrassed on the side. After holding back for a long time, he said gently: “Doctor Qu, the so-called not like a man is not clearly defined, but it is human nature to be afraid of pain. You should understand since you have been practicing medicine for so many years. I hope you can also understand the patient’s mood.”

Zhao Jinxin licked his lips and laughed.

The old doctor pursed his lips: “I think he is used to pain. He will definitely stop shouting when you go out.”

“Huh? …really?” Li Shuo looked at Zhao Jinxin and hesitated.

Zhao Jinxin grabbed him: “Don’t go out. I will cry out more if you go out.”

Li Shuo didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: “I won’t go out. Won’t go out. You be good. Can you bear it?”

Zhao Jinxin obediently buried his head on his shoulder. Although it didn’t hurt, he still hummed and acted like a baby. Li Shuo said worriedly, “If you really hurt, you can just cry out. I won’t laugh at you. “

“I can endure it if you are with me.” Zhao Jinxin smiled contentedly.

The old doctor rolled his eyes twice.

After changing the dressing, Li Shuo wanted to send Zhao Jinxin home first. In the afternoon, he also made an appointment with Chang Wenwu to talk about some matters. Zhao Jinxin wanted to follow him, so he had to bring the person with him.

When the two went to the coffee shop, they passed the glass exterior wall and saw Chang Wenwu sitting in the corner. Chang Wenwu also saw them and waved through the glass.

Zhao Jinxin frowned: “Why is this person so familiar?”

“What?”

“How does he look a bit like the guy who played tennis with you?”

“Oh, that person is his little brother.”

Zhao Jinxin narrowed his eyes: “What do you mean, why are you here to see him?”

“I have asked him to introduce some talented recruits to me. He just introduced his brother to me along the way, don’t think much about it, I have already refused him.”

“Then you wore the same clothes that day.”

“That was sold by the club, we just happened to buy the same one.”

Zhao Jinxin pursed his lips.

The two walked in and Li Shuo quickly squeezed his face: “Be polite, you know?”

“When have I ever been impolite? I am a gentleman.” Zhao Jinxin straightened his chest and took Li Shuo’s arm without warning.

Li Shuo was taken aback. He didn’t manage to get away after a few trials, and he didn’t dare to make too much trouble. Zhao Jinxin looked at him with a smile, “Uncle Li, am I polite?”

Li Shuo scolded him with a smile: “Little bastard…”
