TCBHIWAF Chapter 24

Chapter 24 Make it so he can’t find you

The orange-yellow sunlight gradually dimmed, and a gentle breeze quietly slipped in through the window gaps.

Lin Yu felt a slight chill in his sleep. The wind gently caressed his cheek, and he slowly woke up.

He found himself lying in Ye Xingchen’s arms, their bodies pressed closely together.

Looking at Ye Xingchen’s peaceful sleeping face, Lin Yu’s heart was filled with tenderness. He gently nudged Ye Xingchen and said softly, “Xingchen, wake up, it’s almost dark.”

Under Lin Yu’s gentle nudge, Ye Xingchen’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes, his voice carrying the languor and confusion of just waking up, “How did I fall asleep here?”

Lin Yu’s lips curled up, his eyes filled with doting and a smile, “Just… just too tired.”

“Sleep a little longer~”

Lin Yu helplessly continued to lie on his chest, hugging him and falling asleep again.

It wasn’t until the night was deep, and the room was dimly lit.

The two of them still maintained their embracing posture, feeling each other’s body temperature and heartbeat.

Until Lin Yu woke up again, shivering from the cold, he aggrievedly nudged Ye Xingchen again.

“Xingchen, I’m so cold.” Lin Yu’s voice carried a hint of trembling.

Hearing his aggrieved voice, Ye Xingchen finally woke up completely, rubbed his eyes, and looked at him with heartache.

At this time, the two of them looked at each other, and then looked at the mess on the floor, and their clothes torn to pieces.

Ye Xingchen was a little embarrassed and directly picked up Lin Yu: “Let’s go wash up first.”

After taking a shower, Ye Xingchen carried him back to the room and put him on the bed, covering him tightly with the quilt.

“Are you hungry?” Ye Xingchen asked.

Lin Yu touched his stomach and said pitifully, “Hungry.”

Ye Xingchen smiled gently: “I’ll cook you noodles, okay?”

Lin Yu’s eyes lit up and he nodded, “Okay!”

“Wait for me.”

Ye Xingchen turned and went downstairs.

Before long, Ye Xingchen came upstairs with two bowls of steaming noodles and returned to the bedroom.

“Let me feed you first.”

Lin Yu glanced at the noodles, “I’ll eat it myself. If you feed me, your noodles will get soggy.”

Afterwards, the two of them sat down in the living room of the bedroom and began to eat noodles.

The two of them ate with relish, occasionally looking up and smiling at each other.

Lin Yu ate the noodles and said, “Xingchen, I’m going home tomorrow.”

Ye Xingchen paused in his eating, frowned and said, “Why did you suddenly think of going home?”

Lin Yu swallowed the noodles in his mouth and said, “I haven’t been home for several days. Although my parents don’t ask, it’s not good to be like this.”

Ye Xingchen’s hand holding the noodles stopped in mid-air, “You’re an adult. If you want to move out, they won’t say anything.”

Lin Yu shook his head gently, thinking in his heart, “He’s about to leave, of course, he wants to spend time with his parents.” But he said, “My dad is not feeling well, I want to go back and see him.”

This reason made Ye Xingchen unable to refute. He looked at Lin Yu and sighed helplessly, and said nothing more, continuing to eat noodles silently, but his eyes revealed a hint of disappointment.

After finishing the noodles, Ye Xingchen cleaned up the bowls and took them downstairs. When he came up again, he saw Lin Yu standing on the balcony. He walked over and wrapped his arms around his waist from behind.

“Get some rest.”

“Okay!”

Ye Xingchen slowly let go, and Lin Yu took his hand in return, pulled him back to the bedroom, and together they lay down on the bed, embracing each other and soon falling asleep…

——【Thursday, September 17th/Sunny】

The next morning, after the two had breakfast, Lin Yu said, “Xingchen, I’ll drive my car today.”

Ye Xingchen was stunned, and said, “Then you can drop me off.”

Lin Yu replied, “Okay, sure.”

Soon, Lin Yu drove Ye Xingchen to Ye Corporation.

Before getting out of the car, Ye Xingchen told him, “Be careful on the road.”

Lin Yu nodded with a smile.

Afterwards, Lin Yu drove to Lin Corporation for work.

Today, the company was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

The previous project had also been successfully launched, the company’s stock continued to rise, and the previous crisis had been successfully resolved.

The employees were all in high spirits and full of energy, and the office was filled with a busy and orderly atmosphere.

Lin Yu arrived at the office. He first flipped through the important documents piled up on the desk, carefully annotating and signing them.

After dealing with these documents, he leaned back in his chair, rubbed his eyebrows, and thought about the upcoming schedule.

He remembered the matter of going abroad. If he took a plane, Ye Xingchen could easily find him.

Might as well just fly abroad in a private plane, that way it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack for him to find him.

Afterwards, he called the assistant, arranged the matters of the private plane, and explained some follow-up matters on the work front.

After finishing these, he plunged into new work, holding meetings with the heads of various departments to discuss the further advancement and detail optimization of the project.

Lin Yu spent the entire morning in tense busyness.

At noon, Lin Yu was focusing on his work when his phone suddenly rang.

He picked it up and saw that it was a call from Ye Xingchen.

The call connected, “Yu~” Ye Xingchen’s voice came.

“Yeah, what’s wrong?” Lin Yu tried to make his voice sound as normal as possible.

“I ordered takeout for you, it should be there in a while, remember to eat it.” Ye Xingchen said with a smile.

Lin Yu’s heart warmed, but he couldn’t help but feel a sharp pain.

If Ye Xingchen knew that he was leaving, he didn’t know what would happen.

But he said, “Xingchen, you’re so good to me.”

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yu took a deep breath, trying to calm down his complicated emotions, but the entanglement and pain in his eyes couldn’t be hidden.

As expected, the takeout arrived soon. Lin Yu took the takeout, opened it, and started eating.

After eating a couple of bites, he couldn’t help but make a video call to Ye Xingchen on WeChat.

At this time, Ye Xingchen was also having lunch. After the video connected, Lin Yu said with a smile, “Xingchen, are we eating the same thing?”

Ye Xingchen swallowed the food in his mouth and replied, “Yeah, I heard that the food at this restaurant is good and the ingredients are very fresh.”

Lin Yu nodded, “Indeed, the taste is great.”

Then, the two of them talked about work.

“Recently, the project we’re working on together is progressing very smoothly, and it’s estimated that we can complete it ahead of schedule,” Ye Xingchen said.

Lin Yu responded, “That’s great, we have to keep a close eye on it, we can’t let anything go wrong.”

“Don’t worry, everything is arranged properly.” Ye Xingchen looked confident.

In this way, they shared their work situations while eating lunch, warm and harmonious.

Lin Yu finished eating quickly and hung up the phone with Ye Xingchen.

As soon as he hung up, Lin Yu couldn’t control his emotions again.

Afraid of others discovering his abnormality, he quickly walked to the small room in the CEO office, closed the door, and couldn’t help but sit on the ground leaning against the door.

At this time, he felt like a big stone was pressing on his heart, heavy and suffocating.

He thought of the bits and pieces with Ye Xingchen, thinking about how he was about to leave, tears welled up in his eyes.

He bit his lip, trying to suppress his emotions, but the pain in his heart was like a tide, wave after wave impacting him.
