Chapter 1: Picking Up a Drunk and Taking Him Home

“Get away!”

Qi Luzhi pushed away the arms clinging to his neck with a look of disgust, only to have the other person hold on even tighter.

“Waaah… don’t leave me, don’t go… I can’t live without you…”

The person on him was crying so hard he could barely breathe, hugging his neck tightly, as if trying to meld him into their body.

Cold lips suddenly pressed onto his, Qi Luzhi froze for a moment, then the soreness in his eyes gradually turned to anger.

“Lian Xun, what kind of drunken madness are you acting out?”

Who did he think he was again?

Qi Luzhi turned his head away from Lian Xun’s kiss and reached out to push him away, but Lian Xun was stuck to him like glue, refusing to let go no matter how hard he pushed.

“Lian Xun, see clearly who I am!” Qi Luzhi said coldly, suppressing the anger in his heart.

Even after seven years, his heart still couldn’t help but clench with a tearing pain because of this man in front of him!

However, Lian Xun’s next words stunned Qi Luzhi completely.

“Don’t, don’t leave me… Qi Luzhi!” Lian Xun leaned on Qi Luzhi’s shoulder, sobbing intermittently, his tears quickly soaking a large patch of the suit on his left shoulder.

Qi Luzhi stared blankly at Lian Xun, trying to see through his intentions, but all he saw was a drunk with a flushed face, nuzzling his shoulder like a spoiled child.

Taking advantage of Qi Luzhi’s daze, Lian Xun leaned in again and kissed his lips hard.

This time, Qi Luzhi didn’t push him away, letting Lian Xun slobber all over his mouth.

After a long while, Qi Luzhi finally seemed unable to bear it any longer. He grabbed the back of Lian Xun’s head with his right hand and deepened the kiss.

Only when Lian Xun couldn’t breathe did Qi Luzhi reluctantly let him go.

As soon as their lips parted, Lian Xun gasped for fresh air, collapsing weakly into Qi Luzhi’s arms.

Qi Luzhi lifted Lian Xun’s chin with one hand, gazing into his drunkenly hazy eyes, and whispered like a demon.

“You’re asking for it!”

Qi Luzhi picked Lian Xun up in one swoop, stuffed him into the passenger seat of his black Bentley, fastened the seatbelt, and then got into the car himself, speeding out of the company underground parking garage.

Back at the villa, Qi Luzhi carried Lian Xun straight to the bedroom, threw him on the bed, and then pinned him down.

Lian Xun’s head was dazed from the fall, and tears welled up in his eyes as he looked pitifully at Qi Luzhi, who was close at hand.

“Lian Xun…”

Seeing the tears in Lian Xun’s eyes, Qi Luzhi’s heart softened after all. He called Lian Xun’s name in a low voice, but didn’t know what to say next.

Lian Xun gently shook his head, reaching out to wrap his arms around Qi Luzhi’s neck, making a silent invitation.

Qi Luzhi’s pupils constricted, and his heart suddenly felt like it had been pricked by a needle, the pain spreading all the way to his fingertips.

Lian Xun, is this how you’ve been living these past few years?

Getting drunk and casually going home and sleeping with strange men!

That’s right, someone like you who doesn’t take feelings seriously and tramples on other people’s sincerity at will, it’s normal for you to be a player.

So good at seducing people, I wonder how many people you’ve slept with?

The flames of jealousy in Qi Luzhi’s eyes seemed ready to erupt at any moment. He pinned Lian Xun’s arms above his head with one hand, and roughly tore off Lian Xun’s tie with the other.

Longing, pain, resentment, bitterness…

Countless complex emotions churned in his chest, and Qi Luzhi bit Lian Xun’s lips hard, the taste of blood spreading between their lips, his reason long gone.

Qi Luzhi’s movements weren’t exactly gentle, but Lian Xun didn’t cry out once, only occasionally letting out a few muffled groans when he couldn’t bear it, which only made Qi Luzhi treat him even more forcefully.

He didn’t know how long it went on, Lian Xun passed out from exhaustion. Qi Luzhi got up and went to the bathroom, casually pressed the switch, and let the cold water flow over his face, finally regaining some of his reason.

His thoughts returned to a few hours earlier…

Qi Luzhi, as usual, worked overtime until late at night, and was dragging his tired body home when he saw a staggering figure in a black Haute Couture Suit in the company underground parking garage.

Just another person who drank too much at a dinner party, Qi Luzhi glanced sideways, intending to ignore him.

But when he saw the man’s face clearly, Qi Luzhi couldn’t take his eyes off him.

That face, he would recognize it even if it turned to ash!

Lian Xun!

The one who dumped him twice, his first love!

Hadn’t he disappeared for seven years? Why did he suddenly appear here?

Without time to think it over, Qi Luzhi was inexplicably compelled to step forward and support Lian Xun, who was about to fall. The other man was also stunned when he saw him, and then burst into tears and threw himself into his arms.

After that, no one expected things to develop like this.

Qi Luzhi covered his face in annoyance, regretting his impulsiveness just now.

Now that they had broken up, he should have completely disappeared from the other’s world. Lian Xun’s sudden appearance had stirred up his long-sealed heartstrings.

Qi Luzhi and Lian Xun had met at university.

At that time, Qi Luzhi was 20 years old, and Lian Xun was 18.

Lian Xun was a New Graduate, and Qi Luzhi was his one-on-one mentor.

Originally, these so-called teaching Assistant Upperclassman (Mentor) were just nominal positions, and very few people would bother their seniors unless they had a real problem.

But Lian Xun wasn’t an ordinary person.

Except for class time, he wanted to stick to Qi Luzhi all the time, asking this and that. Before long, the two of them became familiar with each other.

Although Lian Xun was from a Wealthy Family, he didn’t have the pampered air of a rich kid. He was lively and cheerful, and knew how to take care of people.

Qi Luzhi had been an orphan for twenty years, and he felt warmth for the first time in someone.

So, he fell in love and confessed his feelings…

“Clang–”

The sound of a shampoo bottle falling on the floor pulled Qi Luzhi out of his memories. He quickly rinsed himself off, put on his Pajamas, and returned to the Bedroom.

The crumpled suit lay scattered on the floor, the expensive Haute Couture Suit ruined just like that.

The handsome young man on the bed was sleeping soundly with his eyes closed, wrapped in the Blanket, with only his fluffy head showing.

Lian Xun seemed to be too tired and was sleeping very deeply. Qi Luzhi manipulated him as if he were manipulating an unconscious puppet doll.

Qi Luzhi moved Lian Xun over to the side, then lay down next to Lian Xun, gently tracing the outline of the young man’s delicate face with his fingers, his eyes flashing with obscure light.

Lian Xun, you trampled me underfoot with such unbearable words back then, not once, but twice!

Now you appear by my side in such a manner, what is your purpose?

I should hate you, but why…

Qi Luzhi withdrew his hand and closed his eyes painfully.

Reason told him that he shouldn’t believe Lian Xun’s nonsense again, but he couldn’t stop the scene of Lian Xun crying and begging him not to leave from replaying in his mind.

He took a deep breath, turned off the bedside lamp, and lay down with his back to Lian Xun.

Whatever Lian Xun’s purpose was in approaching him, this time, he couldn’t afford to be soft-hearted again.

People cannot, and should not, fall in the same place twice without learning a lesson.

He would send him away tomorrow when he woke up.

*

It hurts!

The headache felt like stabbing needles, and Lian Xun uncomfortably turned over.

“Hiss–”

His body also hurt, especially in a certain area in the back.
