BLHO Chapter 40
by VolareLin Shuangxu turned his back, undressing slowly.
He Yuncheng knew what kind of person he was. He should know that his current appearance was only because he was too shy and couldn’t face him, not deliberately teasing his interest.
But he still regarded Lin Shuangxu’s half-hidden shyness as a deliberate seduction.
Looking at him, thinking of him, his blood surged, scattering his rationality.
Then, not waiting for Lin Shuangxu to take the initiative, he leaned forward and grabbed his wrist.
With a splash, Lin Shuangxu was dragged into the tub.
The thin fabric instantly became soaked with water, and the originally spacious wooden tub seemed crowded with the addition of another person.
Lin Shuangxu held onto the tub to steady himself, bashfully lowering his eyes in He Yuncheng’s sight.
It was clear that he was still struggling.
But he had made up his mind that tonight, how to deal with him was entirely up to He Yuncheng.
Warm water enveloped his body, mingling with the fragrant, warm steam.
He Yuncheng enjoyed his pretended calmness with great interest.
He asked him, “Shy?”
The fingers under the water curled up uneasily, Lin Shuangxu remained silent.
“Heart beating so fast?” He Yuncheng continued to approach, “It’s not the first time, are you so passionate about me?”
Lin Shuangxu was mortified, turning his head away in shame and anger.
“You hurry up…”
He Yuncheng laughed, “Hurry up what? What do you want me to do?”
He pursued Lin Shuangxu’s gaze, “I’m not dead yet, no need to rush to send me off.”
Lin Shuangxu kicked him under the water, “If you dare to say another word…”
“I was wrong, I was wrong…” He Yuncheng spread his arms and quickly hugged him.
“I wanted to say, you don’t have to make such a big sacrifice, using this kind of thing to appease me, I’ll be fine.”
“Of course…” He softened his tone, close to Lin Shuangxu’s ear, “If it’s what *shaozhu* wants, I’m still willing to serve…”
The warm breath washed over his ear, and Lin Shuangxu went numb all over.
Then he heard He Yuncheng say, “Every time you hint at me, I thought I understood, but when I do what you want, you scold me…”
“I didn’t…”
“You didn’t, so I misunderstood? Tell me clearly today, what do you want me to do?”
Heartbeat and sorrow intertwined, Lin Shuangxu was lost, the corners of his eyes flushed red by the steam, unable to say a word.
He Yuncheng brushed his wet hair aside, “If you really care for me, say a few sincere words to make me happy.”
“Say what…”
“Say, in your heart, how do you see me?”
Lin Shuangxu looked up, his chest rising and falling, “I promised the late General He to protect you well.”
“Besides that?”
Lin Shuangxu still refused to say.
He Yuncheng was extremely patient, “Tell me again, when did your affection for me begin?”
“It didn’t…”
“Didn’t what? Lin Shuangxu, even now, you still want to say that you have no feelings for me, and it’s all just me being sentimental?”
“I didn’t…”
“If you don’t like me, why do you seduce me again and again?”
“Don’t say it…”
“Are you offering yourself today because you want me to have a good time before I die, to repay the He family’s kindness in raising you?”
“It’s not…”
Lin Shuangxu denied it incoherently, suddenly feeling his feet lift off the ground, and the world turned in a different direction.
“If you can’t explain it clearly, then don’t.”
Water splashed everywhere as He Yuncheng carried him out of the water.
“Let’s go straight to the bridal chamber.”
