    Chapter 50: Teaching You a Little Happiness

    Jiang Qiu’s eyes were full of smiles. The young master was always unwilling to suffer losses, no matter where he went.

    Apart from his weak body, Yun Yi was lovable in every way.

    Jiang Qiu sighed softly in his heart.

    He wondered when He Yuetang’s research would be completed.

    He wanted Yun Yi to be well, his body healthy enough that he wouldn’t need to rest after walking a short distance.

    He looked at the fair cheeks of the young master beside him, feeling an urge to pinch them.

    But Yun Yi was smiling happily now, the smugness of bullying someone until they couldn’t fight back.

    He didn’t want to disturb Yun Yi’s good mood.

    The car slowly stopped in front of the Yi family’s gate. Jiang Qiu got out of the car first and followed Yun Yi into the Yi residence.

    He had arrived too late yesterday, so Grandma Yi hadn’t seen him. Now, seeing Jiang Qiu come in, she frowned and looked at him.

    “Little Yi, this is?”

    Yun Yi smiled sweetly and walked closer to her. “A servant from the Yun family.”

    “Oh.”

    Grandma Yi withdrew her gaze from Jiang Qiu, took Yun Yi’s hand, and said, “Grandma baked some cookies, with extra milk powder and butter. Little Yi will definitely like them.”

    Little Yi didn’t like them, but he could try them for the original owner.

    Yun Yi looked at the plate of steaming cookies, picked one up, took a bite, and squinted his eyes, saying against his true feelings, “Delicious!”

    “It’s good that Little Yi likes them.”

    Yun Yi had eaten before coming, so he only tasted one cookie and didn’t want any more. Following his memory, he found a pink iron box in the cabinet, opened it, and put the cookies in one by one. He smiled and said, “I want to take them back to the Yun family.”

    Grandma Yi’s eyes were full of heartache. Looking at Yun Yi, she was reminded of her only daughter. She wiped her tears and said, “My good grandson…”

    Jiang Qiu was deeply moved.

    The Yun family wasn’t good to Yun Yi. If they really cared for Yun Yi, they should let him stay with the Yi family.

    There was really nothing for the young master to miss in the Alliance District.

    Suddenly, Jiang Qiu smiled.

    He instantly recalled the words he had heard outside the office.

    The young master had personally told his uncle that he liked him.

    The Alliance District did have something for the young master to miss.

    Jiang Qiu stood aside with his head lowered, his presence extremely low, so naturally no one noticed the smile on his lips.

    Yun Yi stayed with Grandma Yi in the living room until eight o’clock in the evening.

    The old woman had a very regular schedule. After glancing at the clock, she got up to return to her room, leaving only Yun Yi and the servant waiting on the side in the entire living room.

    Jiang Qiu watched as the smile on Yun Yi’s lips slowly faded, his expression somewhat lonely.

    The light above his head shone on Yun Yi’s head, making his hair appear brown, his eyes like fallen stars, but his gaze was unfocused, as if he was emptying himself.

    Even though the young master’s voice had been cheerful just now.

    Jiang Qiu stepped forward and asked in a low voice, “Young Master, are you going back to your room?”

    Yun Yi didn’t speak, slowly leaning back into the sofa.

    His voice suddenly became very low, “Jiang Qiu, is there a way to stop a person from aging?”

    Jiang Qiu didn’t want to lie to Yun Yi, but he also didn’t want to tell the truth and make Yun Yi sad, so he simply remained silent.

    “There’s no way,” Yun Yi said to himself. “Like my mother, she gave birth to me and then left this world. There’s no way to stop it.”

    “Does the young master want to go out?”

    “No,” Yun Yi was tired and wanted to go back to his room to rest.

    Jiang Qiu wasn’t really asking, but using an interrogative tone to make a decision for Yun Yi.

    He directly picked him up in his arms and strode outside. “The young master does.”

    Yun Yi’s body was lifted into the air, the sensation of weightlessness making him instantly hug Jiang Qiu’s neck. After reacting, he raised his hand and slapped him, the corners of his eyes reddening. Although he was unhappy, he was too lazy to struggle. “Jiang Qiu, get out!”

    Jiang Qiu, bearing the handprint, didn’t change his expression. The person in his arms was very light, and the slap was also very light.

    So light that he felt that if he was slightly careless, he would lose the young master.

    He didn’t stop until he reached the outside of the gate.

    The sky was kind to Jiang Qiu, raising a patch of stars, enough for him to coax the young master in his arms.

    “Young Master, look up.”

    Yun Yi, nestled in Jiang Qiu’s arms, raised his eyes, and a sea of stars entered his vision.

    “They haven’t left,” Jiang Qiu said slowly. “The young master said that when people die, they turn into stars. The young master can see his loved ones by looking up. They’ve just changed the way they accompany you.”

    “So, the young master shouldn’t be sad.”

    The atmosphere was a bit somber. Yun Yi suddenly sighed and grinned. “Jiang Qiu, you’re so childish!”

    Jiang Qiu was willing to be ridiculed by Yun Yi.

    As long as Yun Yi was happy.

    Jiang Qiu had sought many things in his past years, but now, only one remained: Yun Yi must be well and live to be a hundred years old.

    *

    Yun Yi was sleepy but refused to sleep, wrapped in a bath towel sitting by the bed, reaching out to point to the pink and white bookcase beside him, “Open the second drawer.”

    Jiang Qiu received the order and opened the drawer, finding a necklace lying inside. It was quite flashy, not something Yun Yi would like.

    He took it and handed it to Yun Yi.

    Yun Yi took it and shook it, the bell ringing in the room.

    He slightly curved his lips. “Kneel.”

    This command hadn’t appeared for a long time, but Jiang Qiu wasn’t as resistant as he had been the first time. He stared at Yun Yi’s face, one knee, then the other, falling until his legs were kneeling in front of Yun Yi.

    Yun Yi looked at the chain in his hand, then at Jiang Qiu’s sliding Adam’s apple, and below that, the collarbone blocked by his collar.

    He had felt that this chain was suitable for Jiang Qiu when he saw it.

    It just wasn’t a long chain.

    The excitement in Yun Yi’s eyes was obvious, and he opened his lips. “Come closer.”

    Jiang Qiu understood.

    Uncontainable excitement.

    The young master was going to give him a gift.

    He lowered his head, leaning his body forward, but doing so would bring him extremely close.

    He had just washed thoroughly, and there was no need to guess what scent he had.

    The scent of milk candy pheromones mixed with citrus shower gel.

    Jiang Qiu hadn’t noticed when the necklace was put around his neck. After hearing Yun Yi say “Look up,” he grasped Yun Yi’s waist with one hand.

    His dark eyes lifted upward, meeting Yun Yi’s pair of light-colored pupils.

    He swallowed hard, the cold aura instantly surrounding the omega, and opened his mouth with the voice he used to coax the young master. “Young Master, shall I teach you a little something fun?”

    Yun Yi sensed the pheromones and scoffed lightly, his hand tugging at Jiang Qiu’s hand on his waist. Just looking at Jiang Qiu’s eyes, he knew what he was up to.

    Awful and painful.

    Not fun at all.

    Yun Yi directly refused, “No.”

    Jiang Qiu ignored the first word, going to kiss Yun Yi.

    Yun Yi’s eyes instantly turned red, his fingers suddenly gripping Jiang Qiu’s hand tightly.

    Half a minute later, Yun Yi changed his words in a hoarse voice, “Okay.”

    The room was soundproofed, and no one noticed. Only the stars in the night sky were embarrassed, quietly hiding behind the clouds.

    In the second half of the night, the stars and Yun Yi slept soundly all night.

    [On the first day of the new year, bring happiness to Little Yi and a little joy to Jiang Qiu.]
