My Senior Brother Turned Black After I Died. Chapter 57
byChapter 57 Chapter 57 Expressing feelings to each other
Ji Hantong took a deep breath and tried to calm down, but the bells on his body jingled with his breathing, making it impossible for him to calm down.
No, I have to find some normal clothes to wear.
Ji Hantong raised his head and his eyes fell on the wardrobe not far away. He bit his lip and moved over cautiously.
Jingle bell——
As soon as my feet hit the ground, the bells on my ankles rang.Ji Hantong froze on the spot, listening to the movement outside with his ears raised. There was no sound of footsteps, so the senior brother should not be nearby.
Ji Hantong breathed a sigh of relief and tiptoed towards the closet.
Jingle bell.Jingle bell.Jingle bell——
Every step was accompanied by a crisp ringing sound. Ji Hantong walked with trepidation, fearing that the movement would attract Shen Lanchuan, but fortunately, the familiar figure did not appear until he walked to the closet.
Ji Hantong stood in front of the closet and reached out to open the door.
Wow——
The wardrobe is full of Shen Lanchuan’s clothes.
Ji Hantong bit his lip and picked out the most inconspicuous looking black robe from the wardrobe.
It shouldn’t be a problem if you wear your senior brother’s clothes secretly, right?It’s better than this tulle.
Ji Hantong thought like this and shook off his robe.The robe was so big that it dragged to the ground as soon as he unfolded it, and the hem of the robe spread out in a small piece on the ground.
Shen Lanchuan is bigger than him, and his clothes are probably a whole circle bigger than him.
But Ji Hantong couldn’t care about that much anymore.He took off the shameful tulle in three quick steps and hurriedly put on the black robe.
Jingle bell—jingle bell—
The bell kept ringing with his movements. Ji Hantong blushed and sped up the movements of his hands.
After finally getting dressed, Ji Hantong lowered his head and looked at himself.
The sleeves grew a lot, and Ji Hantong rolled them up several times before revealing his wrists.The hem of the clothes drags on the ground, the shoulder line slides down to the upper arm, and the neckline is loosely opened, exposing a large piece of collarbone and chest.
Ji Hantong’s face turned red again.He raised his hands to tie his clothes tighter, but as soon as he moved, he tripped on something.
“Ah——!”
Ji Hantong fell forward, the bells on his wrists ringing like crazy.He closed his eyes and prepared himself for the intimate contact with the ground.
The next second, a pair of arms stretched out from behind and caught him steadily.
Familiar embrace, familiar breath, familiar temperature.
Ji Hantong’s heart skipped a beat.He slowly opened his eyes and met a pair of deep eyes.
Shen Lanchuan appeared behind Ji Hantong at some point, holding his waist with one hand and holding his arm with the other, holding him in his arms.
Ji Hantong froze.
“S-Senior Brother…” His voice trembled slightly, “You, how did you…”
Shen Lanchuan said nothing.His eyes slowly moved down and fell on Ji Hantong’s black robe that was obviously much too big, and he raised his brows slightly.
Ji Hantong looked at him so much that he wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
“I, I just wanted to find something to wear…” Ji Hantong stammered in explanation, “That gauze dress is too, too embarrassing… I, I didn’t mean to wear your clothes…”
Shen Lanchuan still didn’t speak.He just lowered his head, buried his face in Ji Hantong’s neck, and took a deep breath.
Ji Hantong trembled, “Senior brother?”
Shen Lanchuan’s muffled voice came from the crook of his neck: “Little wood, mine.”
Shen Lanchuan raised his head and looked straight at Ji Hantong with his red eyes.
“Good-looking.” Shen Lanchuan whispered.
“What does it look like?” Ji Hantong muttered in a low voice, “It’s so big and doesn’t fit at all.”
Shen Lanchuan laughed softly, picked up Ji Hantong and put him back on the bed.
Ji Hantong lay on the bed, looked back and saw that Shen Lanchuan had a porcelain bottle in his hand.
He flinched, his eyes full of shock: “You won’t do it again…”
Shen Lanchuan shook his head: “No, this is medicine for your healing. Last night… it was too cruel.”
Ji Hantong was a little shy, lying on the bed and burying his face in the pillow, and said dullly: “I can do it myself…”
Shen Lanchuan didn’t speak, just sat down beside him and gently pressed one hand on his waist.
The force was very light, but it carried an unmistakable meaning.
Ji Hantong’s body stiffened for a moment, then softened again.He heard the slight sound of the porcelain bottle being opened, and smelled a clear medicinal fragrance filling the air.
The next moment, cold ointment was applied to the unspeakable place behind him.
Ji Hantong trembled all over, and his fingers subconsciously grasped the sheets under him.
“Does it hurt?” Shen Lanchuan’s voice came from behind.
Ji Hantong shook his head, nodded again, and finally whispered: “It’s a bit cold…”
Shen Lanchuan paused, and Ji Hantong buried his face deeper.
In the entire dormitory, only the gentle breathing of the two people and the occasional sound of bells could be heard.
The voice was particularly clear in the silence, making Ji Hantong even more ashamed.
He couldn’t help but move, trying to take off the bells.
“Don’t move.” Shen Lanchuan’s voice sounded.
Ji Hantong immediately stopped moving.
Shen Lanchuan continued to apply the ointment with gentle and meticulous movements.After a while, he took back his hand and put the porcelain bottle aside.
Ji Hantong thought it was over, and just when he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he felt Shen Lanchuan’s hand covering his lower back.
Shen Lanchuan’s hands were very cold, and he gently rubbed his waist through the large black robe.
“Hantong.” Shen Lanchuan’s voice sounded.
Ji Hantong’s heart skipped a beat.
“Last night…” Shen Lanchuan said, his voice hoarse, “I’m sorry.”
Ji Hantong was stunned: “Senior brother?”
Shen Lanchuan looked at him and said word by word: “I was too excited last night. I shouldn’t have offended you without your consent.”
“But I’m so excited.”
His voice was trembling slightly.
“I can’t control myself.”
“Ten years…Xiao Mumu, I have lost you for ten years.”
“In the past ten years, I have been thinking about you every moment and regretting every moment. I regret why I didn’t catch up with you out of anger and let you face those jackals, tigers and leopards alone. It was my senior brother who failed to protect you.”
From the moment Ji Hantong passed away ten years ago, the former Shen Lanchuan also passed away, and now all that is left in the world is a walking corpse.
Yesterday, the person he thought about day and night appeared in front of him. Until the moment before doing those things, Shen Lanchuan thought it was just a dream, a dream that made him miss Xiaomu like crazy.
When he woke up this morning, Shen Lanchuan was pleasantly surprised at first, and then fell into endless regret.
Obviously, he had sworn before that he would not let Xiao Mumu be harmed again, but he did not protect Xiao Mu back then. Now that Xiao Mu was back, he was the one who hurt him again.
Ji Hantong’s heart seemed to be tugged hard by something.
He looked at Shen Lanchuan, at this pale and handsome face, at these eyes full of guilt and distress, and suddenly felt his nose was a little sore.
“I know you’re scared,” Shen Lanchuan continued, “I know you’re in pain, but I… I didn’t care about anything at the time. I just wanted to keep you here, I just wanted to confirm that you were really back, and I just wanted to feel that you were really by my side.”
He paused and closed his eyes: “I’m sorry.”
“Can you hit me?” Shen Lanchuan held Ji Hantong’s hand and was about to say hello to his face, “It doesn’t matter how many times you hit me, but can you please not leave senior brother again?”
Ji Hantong’s tears finally fell.He quickly withdrew his hand, sat up on the bed, and threw himself into Shen Lanchuan’s arms regardless of the pain there.
Shen Lanchuan was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his hand and hugged him tightly.
“Senior brother.” Ji Hantong buried her face in his chest, her voice muffled, “You don’t need to apologize.”
“Don’t apologize,” Ji Hantong sniffed, “I should apologize. It was my fault for leaving you behind.”
“I’m sorry, senior brother. In fact, I have never told you that I am not from this world. I come from another world. It is a peaceful world where people live and work in peace and contentment and everyone is equal. Although everyone’s life span is only a few hundred years, I like it there very much.”
“For some reasons, I came to the world of cultivation and became your junior brother. After completing a specific task, I must leave, otherwise the world will be unstable. The incident at the contract formation ceremony was my last mission.”
“Senior brother, do you know? I think about you every day when I go back. I find that I am not happy. Even after I go back, I have the healthy body, countless wealth, and a bright future that I dreamed of before, but I still can’t arouse any interest. There are only three words in my mind: Shen Lanchuan.”
“So when System 0621 asked me to return to the world of cultivation, I agreed without hesitation. I want to see my senior brother again, and I want to stay with him forever.”
“I have never understood what my feelings for you are, are you a senior brother? But it’s not like that. I understood it yesterday,” Ji Hantong raised his head and looked straight at Shen Lanchuan with wet eyes, “I like you, Shen Lanchuan, I like you.”
“It’s not the love between family members, it’s not the love between brothers, it’s not the love between friends, it’s the love between husband and wife who want to spend the rest of their lives with you and want to do that kind of thing with you.”
“Including those things I did last night,” Ji Hantong blushed, lowered his head and muttered, “Although it hurts a little, I actually enjoyed it.”
Shen Lanchuan stood there in a daze, unable to react for a moment.
After a while, he seemed to remember what Ji Hantong said and hugged him tightly.
“I thought…” Shen Lanchuan’s voice was muffled in Ji Hantong’s neck, hoarse and broken, “I thought it was just my unrequited love. I thought you would never like me… I thought…”
Shen Lanchuan couldn’t speak any more.
Ji Hantong felt warm liquid dripping on his neck, which was Shen Lanchuan’s tears.
He raised his hand, gently hugged Shen Lanchuan’s back, and patted it time and time again.
“You are not alone,” Ji Hantong said softly, “You are never alone.”
“I also like senior brother. I have liked senior brother since a long time ago. It’s just that I’m too stupid, so stupid that I can’t even see my own thoughts clearly.”
Shen Lanchuan didn’t say anything, but just hugged him tighter.
Ji Hantong let him hold her, feeling more at peace than ever before.
After a long, long time, Shen Lanchuan slowly let go of Ji Hantong.He raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears on Ji Hantong’s face with his fingertips.
“Hantong.” Shen Lanchuan called in a low voice.
“Huh?”
“Say it again.”
Ji Hantong was stunned for a moment, then smiled. Why didn’t he realize that his senior brother had such a childish side before?
“I like you, Shen Lanchuan,” Ji Hantong said word by word, “I love you.”
Shen Lanchuan leaned down and pressed a kiss on Ji Hantong’s lips.
Ji Hantong closed his eyes and responded to the kiss.
This kiss no longer had the craziness and intensity of last night, it was just a taste of greenness.
The bells on the wrists jingled, as if cheering for the two people who finally expressed their feelings to each other.
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Lanchuan let go of Ji Hantong and pressed his forehead against his.
“Hantong.” Shen Lanchuan’s voice was hoarse, with a sense of satisfaction that he had never felt before.
“Huh?”
“Thank you.”
Ji Hantong blinked: “Thank me for what?”
“Thank you for coming back.” Shen Lanchuan said, “Thank you for liking me, thank you… for being willing to have me.”
Ji Hantong’s nose felt sore, and he raised his hand to gently pinch Shen Lanchuan’s face.
“What are you talking about?” Ji Hantong whispered.
“Last night… did it really hurt?” Shen Lanchuan asked.
Ji Hantong lowered his head and whispered: “A little bit, but it’s much better after applying the medicine.”
“Next time,” Shen Lanchuan said seriously, “I will be gentler.”
Ji Hantong’s face turned redder.
“What next time…” He muttered softly, “There is no next time…”
Shen Lanchuan raised his eyebrows.
“No?”
Ji Hantong’s heart beat faster when he saw him, and he quickly changed the subject: “You haven’t said why you hung so many bells for me!”
Shen Lanchuan looked at him, with a smile flashing in his eyes: “If you move like this, I will know.”
“It’s easy to catch.”
Ji Hantong: “…”
Ji Hantong’s face was so red that he almost bled.
“I will never run away again,” Ji Hantong whispered, “Can you please take them off?”
Shen Lanchuan said nothing.He stretched out his hand and gently plucked the bell on Ji Hantong’s wrist with his fingertips.
“Wear it.” Shen Lanchuan said, “It looks good.”
Ji Hantong: “…”
He decided not to speak, it would be useless anyway.It’s just a bit of vulgar behavior from my senior brother, and he can tolerate it.
“By the way, senior brother, I want to know what happened to those old friends? And what happened in these years?”
Ji Hantong seemed to remember Shen Lanchuan’s dislike of Li Cangming, and quickly explained: “The main reason is to ask Junior Brother Xin, I still miss him.”
He didn’t react before, but now he understands that this jealous senior brother is actually jealous of other children.
Shen Lanchuan rang the bell on Ji Hantong’s body with a half-smile: “Junior brother Xin is naturally the master of Taixuan Dao Sect, but you can see your apprentice Li Cangming soon, he is in the Demon Palace now.”
“Li Cangming is my left guardian.”
Ji Hantong: “???” When did you two have such a good relationship?
“Oh, by the way, Hua Feixue is the right protector.”
Ji Hantong: “???” You are here too.
The male protagonist Wei Guang Zheng Long Aotian also defected and became a demon?!Isn’t this right?Where did the character and plot go?
Moreover, Ji Hantong remembered that in the picture shown to him by System 0621, Shen Lanchuan had forcefully pulled out Li Cangming’s immortal bone!Is Li Cangming’s heart that big?He even came to work as Shen Lanchuan’s subordinate.
And Hua Feixue, the dignified former Demon Lord actually willingly became his senior brother’s subordinate?
