    Chapter 36 Spraying

    The halo of the street lamp fell on Zhou Yan, outlining his tall and straight figure, with a perfect smile on his face.

    His eyes seemed to be hidden behind mist, making it difficult to see through his true emotions.

    Lu Jin instinctively disliked him. From the first time he bumped into Zhou Yan and talked to Xie Shuhan, this dislike grew quietly like a vine. At this moment, it was amplified by the sense of crisis and became a clear rejection.

    “Is something wrong?” Lu Jin’s voice was not cold, but clearly distant. His eyes fell directly on Zhou Yan’s face, with no intention of exchanging greetings.

    Zhou Yan didn’t seem to notice his precautions, and his eyes naturally glanced at the medicine bag in his hand, and asked in a brisk tone: “Student Lu, did you come here to buy medicine for a cold? I see you are leaving in a hurry, are you not feeling well?”

    When Lu Jin heard this, a hint of cunning flashed through his eyes, like a puppy that had stolen some candy, and the corners of his mouth curled up almost imperceptibly.

    He deliberately shook the medicine bag in his hand, and his voice was neither loud nor quiet, just enough for Zhou Yan to hear clearly: “Ah, this is not for me. Hanhan’s tongue was bitten, and I bought him medicine.”

    The word “hanhan” was bitten by him in a particularly intimate way, carrying a lingering meaning unique to the two of them.

    As for whether the bite was caused accidentally while eating, or because of something embarrassing, he did not say, and deliberately left it blank, allowing the listener to make their own assumptions.

    The smile on Zhou Yan’s face froze for a moment, as fast as an illusion, but the jawline that tightened at that moment still exposed his gaffe.

    His hands hanging by his sides were clenched tightly, his knuckles turning white.

    He clearly asked Xie Shuhan to have dinner with him, but he was gently rejected by him. It turned out that he was actually with Lu Jin.

    My heart seemed to be blocked by something, and I was feeling depressed, but my face still remained calm, but there was a little bit of unnoticeable tension in my tone: “Is Shuhan nearby too?

    “Yes,” Lu Jin smiled more openly, unable to hide the smugness in his eyes, “Hanhan said he was hungry, so I brought him to eat this private kitchen. He really liked the taste here.”

    He deliberately emphasized the words “I quite like”, as if he was declaring his understanding of Xie Shuhan, and also as if he was quietly drawing a clear line.

    Zhou Yan’s palms were almost cut with nails, and his Adam’s apple rolled, but he couldn’t find the right words to answer.

    Seeing the undisguised possessiveness in Lu Jin’s eyes, he felt the depression in his heart became even worse.

    The young man in front of him, who seemed to be jumping out of the sun, cared about Xie Shuhan so much that he couldn’t hide it. It was a closeness he had never had before.

    “I won’t talk to you anymore,” Lu Jin didn’t intend to quarrel with him anymore. Xie Shuhan was still waiting in the restaurant. The wound on the tip of his tongue still hurt when he thought about it. He didn’t want to delay for a second.

    “Hanhan is still waiting for me to spray the medicine, so let’s go first.”After saying that, he no longer gave Zhou Yan a chance to speak, turned around and strode towards the alley.

    His steps were as brisk as walking on the wind, and his back showed an indescribable joy.

    The tail of the silver-haired puppy seemed to be lifted up high invisibly, and the pride in his heart was about to overflow. The moment when Zhou Yan lost his soul just now was really satisfying.

    Zhou Yan stood there, watching Lu Jin’s figure disappear at the corner of the alley, the smile on his face slowly faded, and finally all emotions were completely gone.

    The autumn night wind picked up the fallen leaves on the ground and swirled around his ankles, bringing a chill.

    He stood for a long time, until the shadow of the street lamp was stretched very long, then he slowly turned around and walked in the opposite direction, with a lonely figure behind him.

    On the other side, the warm yellow light in the private restaurant was still gentle, but it seemed a little quiet because of the lack of one person’s noise.

    Xie Shuhan was sitting by the window. The bowls and chopsticks in front of him had already been put down. The food on the table was still steaming slightly, and the dense aroma lingered on the tip of his nose, but he had lost half of his appetite.

    He held his chin with one hand and stared at the dark night outside the window.

    He raised his hand and touched his cheek gently, where the warmth of Lu Jin’s fingertips still seemed to remain, so hot that it made him panic, and even the tips of his ears felt warm again.

    He sighed helplessly. Lu Jin was always like this, with unreserved enthusiasm, which caused ripples in his originally calm inner lake, leaving him at a loss.

    At this moment, the wooden door of the restaurant was gently pushed open, making a soft “squeak” sound, breaking the tranquility in the room.

    Xie Shuhan withdrew his gaze and looked at the door, only to see Lu Jin walking in quickly, with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, and his breathing was slightly short, obviously he had run all the way back.

    “Is the pharmacy far away?Xie Shuhan asked, his voice still cold, but with a trace of imperceptible concern.

    He glanced at the clock on the wall. It took Lu Jin nearly twenty minutes to get there.

    “It’s not far,” Lu Jin quickly walked over to him and sat down. He opened the medicine box and explained casually, “I met Zhou Yan on the way and said a few words, which took up some time.”

    His tone was very calm, as if he was talking about a trivial matter, but there was a trace of imperceptible disgust in his eyes.

    If he hadn’t met Zhou Yan, he would have come back to spray Xie Shuhan long ago.

    While talking, Lu Jin had already opened the packaging box and took out the bottle of oral spray.

    He unscrewed the bottle cap and moved closer to Xie Shuhan. The distance between the two people instantly shortened, and the tips of their noses were almost touching.

    Under the warm yellow light, Lu Jin could clearly see Xie Shuhan’s long eyelashes, like two small fans, trembling slightly.

    “Put your tongue out and I’ll spray you.”Lu Jin’s voice was very soft, with an irresistible tenderness. His warm breath brushed against Xie Shuhan’s cheek, making the tips of his ears instantly turn redder.

    Xie Shuhan’s eyelashes trembled even more. He turned his head slightly to avoid Lu Jin’s too hot gaze, then slowly raised his chin, revealing a small piece of pink tongue.

    The small damage on the tip of the tongue is still clearly visible, but the blood has solidified, leaving a faint red mark.

    Lu Jin’s eyes fell on the pink tongue, his heart jumped suddenly, and his breathing suddenly became a little rapid.

    The last time I had a quick glance, I only felt it was soft and attractive. Now, looking at it up close, I can clearly feel the fragile beauty.

    The red mark on the tip of the tongue is like a cinnabar mole, which is particularly dazzling and alluring against the snow-white skin.

    He calmed down, suppressed the restlessness in his heart, carefully raised the spray, pointed it at the wound, and pressed it gently.

    “Hiss…” The cool liquid fell on the wound, causing a slight sting. Xie Shuhan subconsciously shrank and curled the tip of his tongue slightly.

    Lu Jin immediately stopped and asked nervously: “Does it hurt?Did I spray too much?”

    “No,” Xie Shuhan shook his head, his voice vague, “It’s okay.”

    Lu Jin looked at the extra spray on his lips, his eyes darkened, and he subconsciously stretched out his thumb and gently brushed his lower lip.

    The touch of his fingertips was soft and delicate, like touching fine silk, which made Lu Jin’s fingertips numb slightly, and the restlessness in his heart spread again.

    Xie Shuhan’s whole body froze, as if he had been burned, and he suddenly retracted his tongue, even his neck turned a faint pink.

    He turned his head quickly, not daring to look at Lu Jin anymore, and said in a voice as soft as a gnat: “Okay…”

    This sudden act of intimacy made his heart beat so fast that it felt like it was about to jump out of his chest, his head was buzzing, and even his breathing became somewhat disordered.

    Lu Jin looked at his innocent look, the smile in his eyes almost overflowed, and his heart felt so soft.

    God, how can Xie Shuhan be so cute?

    Obviously, he was usually as cold as a flower on the high mountain, but when something like this happened, he would become so easy to blush and shy, which made him like him more and more, so much that he wanted to hide him and prevent anyone from coveting him.

    He retracted his hand, and the soft touch of Xie Shuhan’s lips seemed to still remain on his fingertips, with a faint medicinal fragrance and a hint of sweetness.

    He handed the spray to Xie Shuhan, with a somewhat tentative tone: “Take this back and spray it in front of the mirror three times a day. The effect will be better after meals. If you are inconvenient, I can spray it for you.””

    “No,” Xie Shuhan immediately took the spray and held it tightly in his hand, like holding some hot potato.

    “I can do it myself.”His voice was still a little tight, and his ears were so red that they were about to bleed.

    Lu Jin looked at the profile of his face that he deliberately avoided, and his eyes fell on the tips of his red ears. He couldn’t help but chuckle, and the laughter was full of endearment.
