WSIDIILMBOCIR Chapter 43
by VolareChapter 43: A Game Born of Loneliness
Qin Yuanging couldn’t lie still for long and began to fidget again. He propped himself up and directly draped his arms around Li Chongge’s neck.
Their scalding chests pressed tightly together.
Qin Yuanging’s breath, hot with alcohol, warmed Li Chongge’s ear. He asked, “Li Chongge, why didn’t you come pick me up?”
As he spoke, Qin Yuanging even rubbed his nose against Li Chongge’s ear. It was at that moment that he felt Li Chongge’s body tremble slightly.
Qin Yuanging was actually very nervous. He didn’t know much about these things, but as soon as he touched Li Chongge’s body, it felt like a fire was trapped inside him, burning him and making him want to nuzzle against Li Chongge.
“I had something to do tonight.”
Li Chongge wanted to push him away, but Qin Yuanging was clinging tightly. The heat emanating from his skin made his heart race. Even though Li Chongge tried his best to ignore it, he couldn’t shake off a certain intensifying emotion.
Sensing Li Chongge’s intention, Qin Yuanging took the initiative to release his hands from around his neck, instead burying his head directly in the hollow of his neck.
Li Chongge felt Qin Yuanging’s slightly cool lips and his hot breath on his skin.
Li Chongge’s hand on Qin Yuanging’s shoulder suddenly tightened its grip. “Qin Yuanging!”
Qin Yuanging blankly raised his head and mumbled, “I’m here.”
“Lie down and stop fooling around!”
Qin Yuanging couldn’t tell if he was drunk or not. If he wasn’t drunk, why was his body starting to escape his control, wanting only to cling to Li Chongge?
If he was drunk, he was very clearly aware.
He wanted Li Chongge at this moment.
Anything would do; a kiss would be enough to satisfy him.
Qin Yuanging’s soaked shirt clung uncomfortably to his body, so he reached out to unbutton it, but Li Chongge grabbed his hand. Because he was too quick, a rare hint of panic crept into his usually unwavering tone.
“What are you doing!”
Qin Yuanging licked his dry lips, half-closing his eyes, and said slowly, “I’m uncomfortable. I want to take a shower.”
“You can’t even walk straight. What shower are you taking? You won’t die if you skip one night.”
Li Chongge’s face was cold, and his tone was frighteningly icy.
Qin Yuanging felt wronged, mixed with the anger brought on by the alcohol. He didn’t understand why Li Chongge was suddenly treating him like this.
He had been so gentle before.
“I want to shower,” Qin Yuanging said, leaning back on the sofa, very upset. “Why won’t you just indulge me?”
Why wouldn’t he give Qin Yuanging the love he wanted?
“How else do you want me to indulge you?” Li Chongge sincerely asked.
Wasn’t he already indulging Qin Yuanging enough?
He had generously offered his love, his soul, as a gift, giving it all.
Even if Qin Yuanging wasted it, he wouldn’t take it back.
Wasn’t that enough?
The two fell silent. Qin Yuanging unbuttoned his shirt with one hand, barefoot, and headed toward the bedroom.
He thought that he also needed to calm down.
Li Chongge watched his retreating figure with his arms crossed, and then followed him.
Li Chongge was no stranger to Qin Yuanging’s bedroom. He had been there many times, and even stayed overnight.
Qin Yuanging stood at the bathroom door, staring intently at Li Chongge.
“Aren’t you going to shower?”
Qin Yuanging countered, “Are you going to help me?”
Qin Yuanging’s shirt was completely unbuttoned, half-concealing, half-revealing his fair skin. The bedroom light was very bright, so bright that Li Chongge could clearly see every inch of his body.
Without waiting for Li Chongge’s reply, Qin Yuanging slammed the door shut.
Li Chongge remained in his original position outside the door, waiting until Qin Yuanging came out wrapped in a bath towel, his upper body, dripping with water, appearing unshielded in Li Chongge’s sight.
Qin Yuanging had only casually dried his hair a few times, and the ends dripped onto his shoulders and back, casual and sensual.
Li Chongge’s gaze was fiercely scalded, and he quickly turned his head away.
His tone was very stern: “Qin Yuanging, put your clothes on!”
Qin Yuanging chuckled softly, his face very capable of bewitching people.
“We’re both men, it’s nothing, right?”
Li Chongge pursed his lips tightly, a nearly mad emotion brewing in his eyes.
Qin Yuanging took one step forward, and he retreated one step back until he was forced by Qin Yuanging to sit on the bed.
“Li Chongge, what are you afraid of?”
Qin Yuanging lowered his head, and drops of water from his hair fell onto Li Chongge’s chest.
Li Chongge slightly raised his eyes, but only looked at Qin Yuanging, without speaking.
So Qin Yuanging slowly lowered his head, his lips brushing past Li Chongge’s ear, and then nonchalantly picked up the pajamas thrown on the bed from beside his hand.
Li Chongge’s body trembled indescribably, and he breathed a low sigh.
“I’m leaving first. You get some rest.”
Qin Yuanging put on his top and glanced askance at Li Chongge.
“Li Chongge, blow-dry my hair.”
A very natural commanding tone, only Qin Yuanging dared to use.
Li Chongge rolled up his sleeves and somewhat irritably dragged him directly into the bathroom.
The bathroom mirror was very large, reflecting the two people’s silent figures.
“Okay.”
Li Chongge put away the hairdryer, pinched his brow, and turned to leave, but Qin Yuanging grabbed his wrist again.
“Qin Yuanging, what exactly do you want to do?”
What answered him was Qin Yuanging’s overbearing embrace.
Qin Yuanging hugged him directly from behind, with great force. Li Chongge could even feel Qin Yuanging’s body trembling slightly.
Qin Yuanging was afraid.
He was feigning madness under the influence of alcohol, using all the courage he had in his life to dare to hug Li Chongge.
At this moment, there were no beautiful thoughts, no satisfaction of having his embrace filled, only the fear of being pushed away.
Li Chongge lowered his head incredulously to look at the pair of hands tightly wrapped around his waist: “Qin Yuanging, do you know what you’re doing?”
Qin Yuanging remained silent. He was pretending to be drunk, of course he knew, but precisely because of this, he dared not answer.
Without waiting for an answer, Li Chongge directly removed Qin Yuanging’s hands and roughly pushed him against the sink, his eyes filled with a stubbornness and madness that Qin Yuanging couldn’t understand.
Li Chongge’s angry face was close at hand. Qin Yuanging leaned forward, but he dodged away.
“Qin Yuanging, I know you like men. Find someone else to play this game born of loneliness. I’m sorry, but I can’t keep you company.”
Li Chongge’s words were like a bucket of cold water, dousing Qin Yuanging and shocking him awake.
In an instant, embarrassment and sorrow welled up in his heart.
Li Chongge not only didn’t like him at all, but even thought he could be with anyone.
This was an insult to his feelings and personality.
Not even Li Chongge could do that!
Qin Yuanging directly threw a punch, but Li Chongge dodged it.
Having missed his target, Qin Yuanging roared in near-frustrated anger.
“Get out!”
So Li Chongge turned and left, but at the entrance, his unchanging expression finally cracked, and his scarlet eyes revealed his emotions.
