    Chapter 70: You Can’t Hug

    The next morning, Xiao Feiwu got up early.

    He hadn’t slept well all night, worrying about Jin Baiyan’s instructions.

    His dreams were filled with Jin Baiyan’s disdainful expression.

    It wasn’t until he opened the rice cooker and saw the fragrant, soft, and glutinous red date and coix seed porridge that Xiao Feiwu finally felt relieved.

    Zhao Chengxi also got up early.

    Li Boxiao had sent a message saying that the two people had confessed everything.

    As expected, the Hang Xiyi incident was related to them, and the other two had already been arrested.

    Knowing that his turn had come, Zhao Chengxi wanted to see Jin Baiyan first before getting down to business.

    The three arrived at the hospital before seven o’clock.

    Jin Mo and Bai Xian had only been awake for a short time.

    Bai Xian woke up first, his hand numb!

    As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Jin Mo’s fingers, hanging by the bed, barely touching his.

    The memories of last night’s chase flooded back, and he couldn’t help swallowing.

    A sense of shyness and heat spread from his heart to his whole body.

    The courage hidden in the darkness of the night had disappeared completely in the bright light of day.

    He didn’t dare, couldn’t do it, and didn’t have the courage.

    Jin Mo doesn’t like guys!

    The fact that this voice could suddenly appear in his mind meant it wasn’t groundless; the memory must have been too deeply ingrained for it to surface even in his amnesiac state.

    Bai Xian’s heart felt as if it were soaking in ice water, chilling him to the bone.

    He withdrew his hand and looked away, not wanting to see the hand that had held his last night.

    Even with a hundred reluctance, he had to force himself to leave, repeatedly reminding himself not to be greedy, not to overthink!

    Jin Mo woke up after Bai Xian withdrew his hand.

    Instinctively wanting to grab Bai Xian’s hand, he reached out into empty air.

    Turning his head, he saw that Bai Xian’s hand was already placed on his own body.

    Looking at his own hand and then at Bai Xian’s, he knew that Bai Xian must be awake.

    “Bai Xian!” He moved his body and called out, his voice soft and glutinous, like a spoiled child.

    Hearing Jin Mo call his name, Bai Xian felt a hundred grievances in his heart, his nose tingled, and even his eyes were slightly wet.

    He blinked a couple of times, hiding the soreness before opening his eyes and looking up at Jin Mo.

    Jin Mo flashed a smile at Bai Xian.

    Like the most radiant and sunny flower in spring, it made Bai Xian reluctant to even blink.

    The two of them, one above and one below, looked at each other.

    Even though there were thousands of words in their hearts, even though their emotions were mixed, they had to hide nine-tenths of them, only daring to reveal the slightest bit.

    Time seemed to stand still at this moment.

    The sound of the cleaning lady sweeping the floor outside broke the silence in the room.

    Bai Xian suppressed the thousands of thoughts in his heart, sat up, and quickly folded up the hospital bed to make it easier for the cleaning lady to clean.

    After preparing everything, he stood in front of the hospital bed, staring at Jin Mo.

    Jin Mo smiled and looked at Bai Xian, reaching out his arms.

    Bai Xian bent down, picked up Jin Mo, and walked towards the bathroom.

    Jin Mo’s arms wrapped around Bai Xian’s neck, this time tighter than usual.

    His face was almost directly against Bai Xian’s neck, and the heat of his breath even made Bai Xian’s Adam’s apple bob.

    The atmosphere between the two was a little strange!

    Not awkward!

    But ambiguous, an ambiguity unique to the two of them!

    Entering the bathroom, Bai Xian put Jin Mo down, his hands slipping, supporting his arms, afraid he would fall.

    Jin Mo stood on the ground with one foot, but his arms didn’t immediately leave Bai Xian’s neck, instead deliberately nestling into his arms.

    Bai Xian’s body stiffened, and the hands holding Jin Mo tightened involuntarily. He really wanted to take the opportunity to pull Jin Mo into his arms, but Jin Mo’s words echoed in his mind again.

    The impulse that had just risen immediately subsided.

    He reached out and pushed Jin Mo away, letting him stand straight, then turned his body backward.

    The corners of Jin Mo’s mouth hooked up, then pressed down again.

    “Hey, why hasn’t it shrunk back yet!” Jin Mo sighed as he busied himself, stealing glances at Bai Xian.

    Sure enough, Bai Xian’s earlobes turned red instantly.

    Jin Mo almost couldn’t help but laugh.

    Bai Xian naturally understood that Jin Mo was deliberately teasing him. He turned his head and glanced at Jin Mo, who was trying not to laugh.

    Jin Mo pursed his lips, feigning seriousness, and began to pee.

    Bai Xian’s gaze uncontrollably dropped down, his face turned red instantly, and a certain part of his body had an inappropriate reaction.

    He quickly looked away as if he had been electrocuted, constantly chanting a calming mantra in his heart.

    While washing up, Jin Mo would occasionally steal glances at Bai Xian in the mirror.

    Bai Xian didn’t dare to meet Jin Mo’s eyes, afraid that he would discover his desire, and also afraid that his reddened eyes would scare Jin Mo.

    He had always thought he was detached and desireless, always thought he was as calm as water, but it turned out he was just burying his head in the sand.

    From the first time he stood at the stairwell and saw Jin Mo next to the front desk, his soul had been out of control.

    Just like now, it was only a glance, and it had already made his whole body explode!

    He had to use twelve points of willpower to control his emotions, afraid that if he lost control for even a moment, he would pull Jin Mo into his arms and rub him hard.

    He coveted everything about Jin Mo!

    Even a strand of hair, he couldn’t bear to let anyone else touch.

    Seeing Xu Jiahao’s hand on Jin Mo’s shoulder, he had the urge to break his arm.

    Xu Jiahao, who was walking to the door, naturally didn’t know that Bai Xian, just one door away, had the urge to cripple him at any moment.

    He happily knocked on the bathroom door.

    “Jin Mo, Bai Xian, we’re here!”

    Jin Mo responded.

    Bai Xian’s eyes narrowed!

    Outside the door, Xiao Feiwu led Zhao Chengxi in.

    “Bai Xian, Zhao Chengxi is here!” Xiao Feiwu shouted at the door.

    Bai Xian didn’t react, still washing his face slowly and methodically.

    Jin Mo’s face changed.

    Ever since he found out that Zhao Chengxi liked his brother, Jin Mo didn’t want to pay attention to Zhao Chengxi.

    After finding Bai Xian, Zhao Chengxi sent him a few messages asking about his condition, but he didn’t reply. He didn’t expect this person to actually come over.

    Jin Mo snorted!

    Like a protective little wolf cub, he grabbed Bai Xian’s arm.

    Bai Xian finished washing his face, looked at Jin Mo’s unhappy face in the mirror, and then lowered his eyes to look at the hand grabbing his arm, raising his eyebrows.

    “What’s wrong?” He tilted his head and looked at Jin Mo, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

    Jin Mo pouted and reached out to wrap his arms around Bai Xian’s neck.

    “Hug!” His tone was full of coquetry.

    Bai Xian stared at Jin Mo for a while, then squatted down and picked up Jin Mo.

    Zhao Chengxi had just sat down when he saw Bai Xian carrying Jin Mo out of the bathroom, so shocked that his mouth almost fell open.

    Passing by Zhao Chengxi, Bai Xian glanced at him, feeling a little familiar.

    Putting Jin Mo on the bed and pulling up the blanket, he was about to get up and raise the bed for him to eat breakfast.

    “Baiyan!” Zhao Chengxi excitedly walked towards Bai Xian, his arms outstretched.

    Jin Mo heard it, and shouted “Oh shit!” in his heart. With a force, he pulled Bai Xian down.

    Bai Xian was caught off guard, his chin hitting Jin Mo’s chest directly.

    Both of them groaned!

    Jin Mo quickly reached out and pressed down on Bai Xian, who was lying on top of him and about to get up.

    His eyes, like a wolf, stared at Zhao Chengxi, who was also stunned.

    “Zhao Chengxi, what do you want to do? You dare to reach out to hug my person?”
