TCBHIWAF Chapter 69

Chapter 69 I Want to Sleep With You

Lin Yu was filled with helplessness, yet not wanting to make a scene, he had no choice but to lead Ye Xingchen towards the guest room.

Upon reaching the guest room door, Ye Xingchen acted as if he had planned this all along, suddenly reaching out to slam the guest room door shut, the “bang” sounding especially abrupt in the quiet hallway.

He took the opportunity to tightly grab Lin Yu’s wrist, indisputably dragging Lin Yu towards his own room.

Lin Yu’s eyes widened, both shocked and angry, subconsciously struggling to break free from Ye Xingchen’s grip, shouting, “Ye Xingchen, what are you doing!”

Ye Xingchen turned a deaf ear, his footsteps unwavering, his face resolute as if he wouldn’t stop until he achieved his goal.

As soon as they entered the room, Ye Xingchen quickly turned back to close the door, followed by a “click” as he locked it, his movements fluid and practiced.

Lin Yu was taken aback by this series of actions, looking at Ye Xingchen, his chest heaving with anger.

Ye Xingchen, however, looked calm, turning to look at Lin Yu, his tone carrying an undeniable firmness: “It’s cold tonight, I want to sleep with you.”

Lin Yu’s face flushed red upon hearing this, both embarrassed and annoyed, forcefully trying to shake off Ye Xingchen’s hand, but Ye Xingchen’s hand was like an iron clamp, impossible to break free from.

Ye Xingchen noticed Lin Yu’s resistance, but he ignored it, saying to himself, “Find me some clothes, I want to take a shower.” His tone suggested as if this was his own home.

Lin Yu suppressed the firestorm raging within him, squeezing out a few words from between his teeth: “Come with me.”

The two arrived at the wardrobe, Lin Yu stood to the side, his eyes showing a hint of resentment and helplessness, pointing to the wardrobe and saying, “Choose for yourself.”

Ye Xingchen’s gaze swept through the wardrobe, finally settling on Lin Yu’s pajamas, reaching out without hesitation to grab them, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his lips.

“I’ll just wear your clothes.”

“There are new clothes.”

“Keep the new clothes for yourself, I’ll wear yours.”

Lin Yu looked at Ye Xingchen’s taken-for-granted appearance, feeling both angry and annoyed, but with no way to vent his feelings.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, also reaching out to grab a set of clothes, trying his best to control his emotions, saying, “Go take a shower quickly, I’ll shower after you.”

As he spoke, his eyes intentionally avoided Ye Xingchen, as if one more glance would cause the emotions he had barely suppressed to burst forth again.

Ye Xingchen looked at Lin Yu’s appearance, a hint of barely noticeable fondness flashing in his eyes, but he deliberately pretended not to see Lin Yu’s awkwardness, taking the clothes and leisurely walking towards the bathroom.

Soon after, the sound of rushing water could be heard from inside.

Lin Yu stood there, his heart unable to calm down for a long time.

He was both annoyed by Ye Xingchen’s forced stay and flustered by the two of them being in the same room in such an intimate way.

Lin Yu knew that he had special feelings for Ye Xingchen, but all along, his inner cowardice had led him to choose to avoid these feelings.

He walked to the bedside and sat down, covering his face with his hands, sighing deeply!

After a while, the bathroom door opened, and Ye Xingchen walked out wrapped in a bath towel, holding his pajamas in his hand, water droplets sliding down his well-built chest.

Lin Yu glanced up and saw this, his face instantly turning red, quickly looking away.

“You took the clothes but didn’t put them on, you… are doing this on purpose, aren’t you.”

“I’m not dry yet, I’ll change in a bit.”

Ye Xingchen looked at Lin Yu’s embarrassment, a mischievous smile appearing at the corner of his lips, deliberately walking over to sit next to Lin Yu, leaning close to him and saying, “What, are you shy after just one glance?”

Lin Yu’s body trembled, moving to the side, saying irritably, “Don’t mess around, I’m going to take a shower.” After saying that, he hurriedly got up and walked into the bathroom.

When he came out after showering, Ye Xingchen had already changed into his pajamas and was lying on the bed, comfortably looking at his phone.

Lin Yu hesitated for a moment, walked to the bedside, and said softly, “Move over a bit.”

Ye Xingchen obediently moved over, and Lin Yu carefully lay down, turning his back to Ye Xingchen, trying to keep himself as far away from him as possible.

The room was so quiet that only the two of them could hear each other’s breathing, Lin Yu feeling tense and stiff all over, unable to fall asleep at all.

Ye Xingchen seemed to have noticed Lin Yu’s discomfort, suddenly reaching out from behind to wrap his arms around Lin Yu’s waist, saying softly, “Don’t hide, I know you have feelings for me too.”

Lin Yu’s body suddenly froze, his heart seeming to skip a beat, stuttering, “You… what nonsense are you talking about, let go of me.”

Ye Xingchen hugged him even tighter, whispering in his ear, “I don’t want you to avoid this anymore, let’s be together.”

Lin Yu closed his eyes tightly, his heart in turmoil, on one hand, the habit of avoiding it for many years was at play, that cowardice entangling him like vines; on the other hand, the difficult-to-suppress feelings for Ye Xingchen were surging in his heart.

After a long time, Lin Yu slowly regained his senses, reaching out to grab Ye Xingchen’s hands around his waist, forcefully pushing them away one by one, his voice carrying a hint of trembling, but trying his best to maintain a serious tone: “You’re crossing the line.”

Ye Xingchen was slightly stunned, a hint of hurt flashing in his eyes, but he quickly hid it, forcing a seemingly relaxed smile on his face.

“I was just kidding, I have a fiancée. I was just curious because you kept avoiding me, wondering if you still had feelings for me.”

Lin Yu felt a sudden pang of pain in his heart upon hearing these words, even though he had been avoiding it all along, he couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable every time he heard Ye Xingchen say that he had a fiancée.

He said, pretending to be calm, “Don’t make jokes like that.”

Ye Xingchen looked at the ceiling, his tone somewhat dejected: “Okay, I understand.”

Then, he muttered, “I’m cold, Yu, come here, let me hold you to sleep.”

Lin Yu was filled with conflict, pretending not to hear his words, not wanting to pay attention to him at all, remaining silent and motionless.

Ye Xingchen didn’t give up, reaching out his finger to gently poke his back.

“Did you hear me? We’re good friends, we grew up together, what’s wrong with letting me hold you?”

Lin Yu remained silent, motionless.

But Ye Xingchen didn’t give up, repeating over and over again, “Yu, I’m so cold, let me hold you.” When he said it for the 38th time…

Lin Yu finally couldn’t bear it, suddenly turning around, saying irritably, “Fine, fine, I’ll let you hold me!”

As soon as the words fell, the corners of Ye Xingchen’s mouth slightly turned up, quickly grabbing him tightly in his arms, resting his chin lightly on the top of Lin Yu’s head.

“Good night.” Ye Xingchen’s voice was very soft, but it made Lin Yu feel very secure.

Lin Yu was held in his arms, his body slightly stiff, but there was a different kind of emotion spreading in his heart, in this silent night, the sound of their heartbeats was clearly audible.

After who knows how long, Ye Xingchen felt the breathing of Lin Yu in his arms gradually becoming steady, the even breaths gently spraying on his neck, thinking that he had already fallen asleep.

He lowered his head slightly, using the faint moonlight coming in from the window to quietly gaze at Lin Yu’s sleeping face.

Lin Yu’s face looked especially gentle in the moonlight, the corners of his mouth, which usually carried a warm smile, were slightly raised at this moment, as if he was having a sweet dream.

Ye Xingchen’s eyes were filled with deep affection and longing, he slowly raised his hand, his fingers gently falling on Lin Yu’s lips, as if afraid of disturbing the person in front of him, just stroking them extremely gently.

Lin Yu’s lips were soft and warm, the feeling from his fingertips making Ye Xingchen’s heart tremble slightly.

He finally couldn’t resist, leaning down and gently kissing those tempting lips, his movements as gentle as feathers brushing across them.

After that, Ye Xingchen carefully pulled the blanket up, tucking the blanket around Lin Yu tightly, ensuring that not a single cold draft could get in.

After doing all this, he contentedly tightened his arms, holding Lin Yu tightly in his arms, and then closed his eyes with satisfaction, falling asleep peacefully.
