Chapter 54: Just Want to Make Big Brother Happy, Only Treat Big Brother as Big Brother.

After a busy day, Chef Lin finally had dinner.

Yun Qi obediently sat on the side, naturally serving Lin Yan dishes, and peeling shrimp with movements that showed no sign of his being half-drunk.

Since they were all family, there was no need to be polite. Lin Yan took a bite here and a bite there, making up for the two meals he had skipped today.

With the dishes on the table almost finished, Lin Yan patted his stomach and contentedly let out a satisfied burp. The well-fed Lin Yan was like a lazy dog, not wanting to move at all. He only politely offered a few words while watching Yun Qi clean up, as he really didn’t want to move.

Logically speaking, cleaning up the dishes wouldn’t be Yun Qi’s job, but tonight was their wedding night. After the wedding games, it would be “a moment in spring night worth a thousand gold.” The serving maids in the residence were all perceptive and had returned to their own courtyards, leaving Yun Qi to handle these matters himself.

By the time Yun Qi finished cleaning up, Lin Yan had already unlocked the seal on his body and leaned lazily against the bed frame, watching Yun Qi with a raised corner of his mouth: “Xiao Qi, you look so handsome today. Big brother’s heart is melting.”

The red candles in the room had burned down halfway, the dim light paired with the semi-transparent red gauze curtains. Lin Yan leaned against the bed, a jade hand seemingly casually playing with the tassels on the bed curtain, looking like a celestial being who had stepped out of a painting, or even more like a charming demon who could captivate souls.

For Yun Qi, Lin Yan had always been a demon, devouring his reason, awakening his desires, making him greedy, and constantly craving more.

Yun Qi mechanically walked towards the bed, various thoughts gradually becoming active in his mind.

The home that Lin Yan constantly talked about was nowhere in sight, and he hadn’t really tried to find it. Instead, he was willing to accommodate him, fooling around with him for so long. Could it be that…

The atmosphere was already at its peak.

Yun Qi’s head was a little hot. He quickly walked two steps to Lin Yan, took his hand, and said: “Big brother, I…”

The words of confession stopped at his lips. Yun Qi took a deep breath and deliberately tucked Lin Yan’s hand into the quilt, starting to take off his clothes in a flurry.

Watching Yun Qi take off the wedding gown piece by piece, Lin Yan couldn’t help but sigh: “This clothing is really exquisite, much more elaborate than what I’ve seen in scenic spots.”

Yun Qi’s heated heart gradually cooled down, almost reaching freezing point.

For Lin Yan, this wedding banquet was no different from the ancient-style wedding process he experienced in a scenic spot for three hundred yuan. Whether it was towards him or towards Great Zhou, Lin Yan was always an outsider, a passerby.

Yun Qi silently trimmed the wick of the red candle, turned over, and lay on the bed, stiffly lying on the edge of the bed, half a bed’s distance away from Lin Yan.

Lin Yan pinched Yun Qi’s face and continued to mutter: “Actually, this can be considered a marriage, right?”

The succubus was beginning to exude charm again, igniting fires everywhere. But would Yun Qi fall into the same pit twice? Yun Qi still… wouldn’t, wouldn’t fall for it.

Yun Qi pulled back from the brink, enduring the heartache, and comforted: “The procedure is like this, big brother doesn’t need to…”

“Let me finish.” Lin Yan put his finger on Yun Qi’s lips, blocking his words.

He looked towards the door, making sure no one would suddenly appear again, before continuing: “I don’t know when we’ll be able to go back, maybe tomorrow, maybe never. But whether we stay here or return to New China, only you can understand what I’ve experienced. Maybe it’s the suspension bridge effect, or maybe the atmosphere is just right, so let me say those words you can’t say…”

Yun Qi guessed what Lin Yan wanted to say. His cold heart boiled for a moment, then dropped directly to freezing point.

Lin Yan was right. Only those who had truly experienced such strange and bizarre things could understand them, and only those who were by their side could empathize. But… he was not the one who could understand Lin Yan.

He was a native of Great Zhou. He didn’t understand the things Lin Yan had experienced. His so-called understanding was just a lie. His past agreement was just extrapolation based on the information he had seen on his phone, and imitating what he had heard in stories.

So even if the atmosphere was at its peak, even if he was half-drunk, even if Lin Yan had guessed almost everything, he had to deny it, and could only deny it.

Yun Qi’s hand clutching the corner of the quilt tightened unconsciously. His voice had begun to tremble, but he still tried to force a smile: “Big brother misunderstood. It’s not that complicated. I prepared all this just to make big brother happy. I only treat you as my big brother.”

Lin Yan’s gaze swept over the exquisite furnishings in the room, his eyes slightly narrowed with suspicion: “Really?”

Yun Qi hummed with a mixture of heartache and guilt, wrapped himself in the quilt, and muttered vaguely: “It’s been a busy day. I’m very tired. Let’s go to sleep.”

Lin Yan clicked his tongue, lay down sulkily, and rudely snatched all the quilt over.

This kid was probably lying six, seven, eight, or nine times out of ten. Let him freeze.

The early autumn night was still a bit chilly. Without the protection of the quilt, Yun Qi quickly curled up into a ball, hugging himself and shivering.

Even so, he didn’t have the slightest dissatisfaction, almost masochistically enjoying the cold.

He deserved all of this, whether it was Lin Yan’s future estrangement or the current cold.

But things would soon be different. Just wait, wait for the seeds he sent to the Ministry of Works to sprout, wait for the truth about the Cheng family to be investigated, wait to leave this damned Capital City, wait for everything to end, wait to find the way back, wait…

Then he would confess to Lin Yan and let Lin Yan deal with him as he pleased.

Lin Yan, wrapped like a dumpling, was waiting for Yun Qi to soften, but the person beside him seemed to be asleep, curled up in a ball without moving.

Lin Yan loosened the quilt and quietly turned over, reaching out towards Yun Qi.

This person was asleep, or… Good, cold and hard, had been gone for a while.

Lin Yan withdrew his hand, threw the quilt over, and rudely wrapped the frozen mushroom.

How could getting a mute to speak be a matter of a day or two? Take it slow, it will be fine.

The red candles gradually shortened, burning until dawn. The morning light began to faintly appear, and the crowing of roosters began to stir. The servants of the Prince’s residence had not yet woken up from their slumber.

Lin Yan turned over and moved his leg from Yun Qi’s stomach.

“Host! How did you get the little Emperor into bed?” A scream shattered Lin Yan’s good dream.

Lin Yan sat up with a “thump,” opening his eyes in a daze and searching for the source of the sound in the room.

The red candles by the bed had been extinguished, and the dim morning light shone in from the gauze window. Besides the slightly restless Yun Qi beside him, there was no one else in the room.

Lin Yan listlessly lay back down, muttering that he absolutely couldn’t decorate the room in red. After just one night, he was already having auditory hallucinations and nightmares.

“Host, host.”

Lin Yan had just closed his eyes when the voice came again.

Lin Yan remembered who this voice was. He sat up again, glanced at Yun Qi beside him, and only after confirming that the person hadn’t woken up did he tiptoe out of bed.

He casually grabbed a piece of clothing from the rack, opened the door a crack, and slipped out.

The moment the door collided with the frame, the sleeping Yun Qi also opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.
