Chapter 70: Don’t Push Your Luck

Halfway through the night, Lin Yu was enveloped in heat, making his sleep restless.

He unconsciously squirmed, trying to find a bit of coolness.

Between waking and dreaming, his hand moved randomly, accidentally touching something warm and hard.

The sensation was both unfamiliar and familiar. In an instant, Lin Yu’s muddled consciousness was struck by an electric current, and he jolted awake a little.

He then realized, to his shock, that he was still in Ye Xingchen’s arms, and what he had just touched seemed to be…

Lin Yu’s face flushed instantly, and his heart began to beat wildly out of control.

He instinctively wanted to push Ye Xingchen away, and in his panic, his movements were inevitably a bit rushed.

Ye Xingchen, who was already a light sleeper, was awakened by Lin Yu’s movements and instinctively tightened his arms.

Seeing him holding on even tighter, Lin Yu felt both ashamed and annoyed, blurting out, “What… what are you thinking about in the middle of the night!”

Feeling Lin Yu’s resistance, Ye Xingchen’s voice was a bit hoarse and lazy as he whispered in Lin Yu’s ear, “If you keep moving, I can’t guarantee what I’ll do to you.”

“You bastard.” Lin Yu said, struggling and twisting his body violently, shouting, “Let me go!”

Hearing this, Ye Xingchen’s lips curled into a mischievous smile, and he deliberately said in a somewhat ambiguous tone, “Isn’t this a normal reaction? If you keep moving, I’ll reasonably suspect you’re trying to seduce me.”

Lin Yu froze upon hearing this, feeling both angry and anxious, but not knowing how to retort, he simply played dead, closing his eyes tightly, resolutely refusing to respond no matter what Ye Xingchen said.

“Yu, why aren’t you talking?”

“…” [Shut up!]

“Did I guess right?”

“…” [Nonsense.]

“Are you embarrassed into anger?”

“…” [Calm down! Calm down!]

“Silence means consent?”

“…” [I’m not listening, I’m not listening to nonsense.]

Ye Xingchen looked at Lin Yu’s appearance and couldn’t help but chuckle. He hugged him even tighter, seemingly declaring his ownership, with no intention of letting go.

The room returned to silence, with only the intertwined breaths of the two remaining, appearing particularly ambiguous in the quiet night.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Yu, in Ye Xingchen’s arms, pretended to be asleep, his tense nerves gradually relaxing, and his breathing becoming increasingly steady.

Ye Xingchen thought he was really asleep, lowered his head and gently kissed the top of his head, murmuring softly, “Don’t resist me anymore, okay?”

…

The sky gradually brightened, and the morning light gently spilled onto the two through the cracks in the curtains.

Lin Yu woke up slowly, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Ye Xingchen’s sleeping face close at hand, his thick eyelashes fluttering slightly, and his thin lips pursed under his high, straight nose.

Ye Xingchen was like a showpiece of Nuwa’s skill, perfect to an absurd degree.

As he looked at him, his face flushed again, and recalling everything from last night, he tried to carefully break free from Ye Xingchen’s arms, trying not to wake him.

However, Ye Xingchen seemed to sense his movements, his arms instinctively tightening, imprisoning Lin Yu even more tightly, muttering vaguely, “Sleep a little longer…”

Lin Yu was helpless, and not wanting to struggle too forcefully, he could only awkwardly maintain this position, secretly annoyed in his heart, “How does this guy sleep like an octopus?”

After a while, Ye Xingchen finally slowly opened his eyes, his eyes sleepy, a teasing smile on his lips.

“Good morning, is it warm sleeping in my arms?”

At this moment, even Lin Yu, with his usually good temper, couldn’t help but lose it. The embarrassment and heat that had accumulated overnight erupted instantly, and he abruptly pushed Ye Xingchen away, quickly getting up.

He said unhappily, “You have the nerve to say that, I was about to die from the heat, don’t you have any self-awareness?”

After speaking, he walked straight to the bathroom without looking back.

After entering the bathroom, Lin Yu turned on the shower and rinsed his hot body with cold water, trying to calm himself down.

After washing up, he quickly changed into clean clothes and said to Ye Xingchen, “Tidy up, come down for breakfast.”

Lin Yu conveniently took a brand new toothbrush, toothpaste, and cup from the cabinet and handed them to Ye Xingchen.

Ye Xingchen took them and responded, heading to the washroom to wash his face and brush his teeth.

After washing up, he went straight to the wardrobe.

In the wardrobe, Ye Xingchen looked around and casually picked out one of Lin Yu’s suits to wear.

The suit fit him surprisingly well. The pants were a tiny bit short, but it didn’t detract from his handsomeness at all.

After getting dressed, Ye Xingchen hurried downstairs and sat at the table with Lin Yu to enjoy breakfast.

The atmosphere at the breakfast table was somewhat subtle.

Lin Yu ate his breakfast silently, deliberately avoiding looking at Ye Xingchen, but Ye Xingchen occasionally looked up at Lin Yu, a hint of a smile and curiosity in his eyes.

After the two finished breakfast, Lin Yu got up to go to work, and Ye Xingchen followed suit.

“Take me to the office, I didn’t ask my driver to come.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Xingchen’s phone rang, the caller ID showing it was his driver.

His expression tightened, and he quickly hung up the phone and quickly sent a text message.

[Drive the car away quickly, or your year-end bonus will be deducted.]

The driver outside the villa saw this message, and his face changed instantly. Not daring to hesitate, he floored the gas pedal, and the car sped away like an arrow.

Fearing that the driver hadn’t left yet, Ye Xingchen quickly grabbed Lin Yu, who was about to leave, calling out affectionately, “Yu, take me to the office, please.”

Lin Yu glanced at him calmly.

“Let’s go.”

The two arrived at the garage, where Lin Yu’s driver was already waiting by the car, respectfully opening the rear door.

Lin Yu didn’t say a word, sitting straight in the back seat, leaning back, his whole body sinking into the soft seat.

He placed his hand on his leg, slowly closing his eyes, his expression and movements conveying a clear reluctance to talk.

Ye Xingchen sat in the car from the other side, his eyes fixed on Lin Yu.

Seeing Lin Yu like this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he plotted a little scheme in his heart.

The car started slowly. Ye Xingchen moved his body seemingly inadvertently, then gently placed his hand on Lin Yu’s hand resting on his leg.

Lin Yu’s body stiffened instantly, his originally relaxed muscles suddenly tensing up.

He didn’t open his eyes, but said coldly, “Take it away.”

Ye Xingchen pretended not to hear, not only not taking his hand away, but gently stroking the back of Lin Yu’s hand with his fingers, as if comforting a frightened little animal.

Lin Yu frowned and opened his eyes, speaking again, his tone more annoyed, “Don’t push your luck.”

Seeing Yu angry, Ye Xingchen slowly withdrew his hand, but still looked at Lin Yu with a faint smile on his face.

“Okay, just teasing you, don’t be so serious.”

Lin Yu didn’t respond, but moved to the side, trying to stay away from Ye Xingchen, continuing to close his eyes and rest, but his heart was rippling with Ye Xingchen’s actions, and he could no longer calm down.

After a while, Ye Xingchen saw that Lin Yu didn’t have too intense a reaction, and he grew bolder.

He seized the opportunity and simply pulled down the partition in the car.

Hearing the sound, Lin Yu was caught off guard and looked flustered.

“Why did you pull this down? The driver will misunderstand!”

Saying that, he reached out and quickly pushed the partition back up, his tone becoming serious, “Behave yourself, or you won’t be riding in my car next time.”

Ye Xingchen took what he could get, sitting obediently, but with a triumphant smile on his face, his eyes occasionally glancing at Lin Yu.

Lin Yu was secretly vigilant, trying not to give Ye Xingchen any more chances, the entire ride tense and awkward.
