    Chapter 49 I Want What’s Beside Me

    After the game ended, everyone left the room.

    Ye Xingchen and Lin Yu were still excitedly discussing the wonderful team fight they just had.

    “Yu, your ultimate move was so timely in that last wave.”

    “That’s because your damage output was awesome. If you hadn’t been constantly pressuring the other team, we wouldn’t have won so easily.”

    At that moment, Ye Xingchen’s phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and saw it was a friend request from the Little Qiao girl from the game.

    Without a second thought, Ye Xingchen rejected it.

    Lin Yu, who saw this, asked in confusion, “Why didn’t you accept? She might be asking you to play games, maybe it could even lead to a romance.”

    Who knew that upon hearing this, Ye Xingchen threw his phone onto the sofa, directly pinned Lin Yu down, and pounced on him on the sofa.

    “You know I like you, what romance do I need? I want what’s beside me!”

    Lin Yu was shocked by Ye Xingchen’s sudden action, and a blush spread across his face. He stammered, “I… I was just joking.”

    Ye Xingchen stared intently at Lin Yu, his eyes full of sincerity.

    “That’s not a funny joke. I only have you in my heart.”

    Lin Yu’s heart beat faster, and he mumbled, “I… I know.”

    The two of them just stared at each other, and the surrounding air seemed to become hotter.

    Ye Xingchen’s angry breathing gradually became rapid. He slowly approached Lin Yu, and then suddenly kissed him, with a hint of punishment.

    “Mmm~”

    Lin Yu was a little overwhelmed by the sudden kiss. He struggled and said, “Your… your injury isn’t healed yet, why are you…”

    “Mmm~ Mmm mmm~”

    Ye Xingchen gasped, his eyes full of desire.

    “Then don’t move~”

    As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yu fell silent. Ye Xingchen’s kiss became more and more passionate and deep, and his hands unconsciously grabbed the fabric of Ye Xingchen’s chest.

    Their breaths intertwined, and Ye Xingchen and Lin Yu were immersed in this intense atmosphere. They didn’t know how long it lasted before they slowly stopped…

    At this time, Lin Yu’s eyes were a little dazed, his lips slightly swollen, and he was breathing lightly.

    “You’re so badly injured, yet you’re still not being honest.”

    Ye Xingchen’s lips curled up, revealing a mischievous smile.

    “Who told you to say things that provoked me? I couldn’t help… wanting to kiss you.”

    Lin Yu rolled his eyes at him and sat up.

    “I’m really done with you.”

    But Ye Xingchen pulled him back into his arms, leaned close to his ear, and whispered gently, “Yu, don’t move, let me hold you for a little longer.”

    Lin Yu’s face turned red again upon hearing this, but he didn’t struggle, obediently leaning in Ye Xingchen’s arms, muttering, “You’re so badly injured, yet you’re still so dishonest.”

    At this time, the afterglow of the setting sun shone into the room, coating them in a layer of warm gold.

    Ye Xingchen gently stroked Lin Yu’s hair, and Lin Yu felt Ye Xingchen’s rapid heartbeat. Neither of them spoke, but they seemed to be able to hear each other’s inner voices.

    Ye Xingchen and Lin Yu hugged on the sofa for a long time, and their breathing gradually calmed down.

    After a long time, Lin Yu gently pushed Ye Xingchen away, his face with shyness and a hint of blame: “Okay, stop messing around.”

    Ye Xingchen smiled with satisfaction and reached out to brush the stray hair from Lin Yu’s forehead.

    “Okay, I won’t mess around anymore, let’s go out to eat.”

    “I’m going to freshen up.”

    Ye Xingchen smiled mischievously, “Let’s go together.” With that, he grabbed Lin Yu’s hand and walked into the washroom.

    ……

    After washing up, Lin Yu said, “I don’t want to cook, let’s go out for dinner tonight.”

    Ye Xingchen readily agreed, and after carefully tidying themselves up, they walked out the door side by side…

    They arrived at a Western restaurant with local characteristics.

    The exterior of the restaurant was simple and elegant, and the lights at the entrance were soft and warm.

    Walking into the restaurant, the interior decoration was exquisite and luxurious, with art paintings hanging on the walls, and fresh flowers and fine tableware placed on the tables.

    Ye Xingchen gentlemanly pulled out a chair for Lin Yu, and Lin Yu sat down with a smile. This thoughtful gesture was noticed by a foreign couple at the next table.

    The girl immediately stepped on her boyfriend’s foot and whispered, “Look at you. Even the two guys are so considerate. What about you?”

    The boy looked helpless and a little embarrassed, and quickly said, “Dear, don’t be angry. I’ll do better next time.”

    The girl turned her head away and snorted softly, “You always say that, but never change.”

    The boy hurriedly took the girl’s hand and coaxed her gently: “I promise, this time it’s different. Let’s enjoy the dinner now, okay?”

    Seeing him like this, the girl glared at him and didn’t say anything else with a pout.

    At this time, Lin Yu and Ye Xingchen politely ordered their meals from the waiter. They ordered appetizers, vegetable salad, fish maw and yellow croaker soup, tomahawk steak, supreme South African abalone, seafood platter, (dessert) oyster ice cream, and a bottle of 1982 Lafite…

    During the meal, they behaved elegantly, spoke softly, and occasionally smiled at each other.

    When the steak was served, Ye Xingchen carefully cut the steak for Lin Yu, and Lin Yu looked at him with a smile.

    The young couple looked at them from time to time, their eyes filled with envy and a hint of curiosity.

    When the dessert was served, it was two exquisite oyster ice creams, and the two of them slowly tasted it, looking very content.

    After dinner, they left the restaurant side by side.

    The girl looked at their departing backs and couldn’t help saying, “I have a feeling that their interaction is more like a couple than ours.”

    The boy frowned upon hearing this and retorted: “Don’t talk nonsense. They are just pure friendship.”

    The girl glared at the boy, “Who has such a considerate buddy like that?”

    Being rebuffed by his girlfriend, the boy looked depressed and lowered his head without saying anything. Looking at their increasingly distant figures, he thought that if they were real, then they would be pretty good together.

    His girlfriend was too fierce, scolding him at every turn, which made him feel so embarrassed.
