Chapter 38: Weak Will

Li Chongge returned to Jing City two days earlier than his scheduled return time.

After finishing all the matters at hand, he didn’t waste a second, took his meager luggage, and drove away alone.

Of course, he didn’t notify Qin Yuanging in advance.

In fact, Li Chongge wasn’t so easily fooled. He wanted to see how wonderful Qin Yuanging’s nightlife was when he wasn’t around.

Unfortunately, when Li Chongge returned to his residence, he found it empty. Qin Yuanging indeed hadn’t returned yet.

These days, Qin Yuanging had been honestly coming home on time, but tonight he happened to accept Sun Qihao’s invitation and went out for a few drinks.

But fortunately, Qin Yuanging wasn’t drunk, and he even brought a new bouquet of flowers to replace the old one for Li Chongge.

Qin Yuanging counted the days, Li Chongge would be back in two days, and he didn’t want Li Chongge to see a bouquet of withered flowers at first glance when he returned.

Originally, he wanted to replace them the day after tomorrow, but tonight, when he passed the flower shop, he inexplicably wanted to buy a bouquet.

Qin Yuanging held the flowers and went directly to the twentieth floor by elevator, skillfully opened the door with his fingerprint, and then saw Li Chongge smoking in the living room…

Li Chongge’s disappointment at being deceived instantly dissipated almost completely when he saw Qin Yuanging standing at the door with a large bouquet of flowers in surprise.

He was always easily appeased by Qin Yuanging.

“Why didn’t you tell me you were coming back?”

After the surprise faded, Qin Yuanging was puzzled, mixed with a little loss. He had been contacting Li Chongge every day, but Li Chongge hadn’t mentioned a word.

Li Chongge got up to get slippers for Qin Yuanging, his tone a little cold.

“I went up to look for you just now, you weren’t there.”

Qin Yuanging quickly glanced at the time.

Well, it was almost twelve o’clock in twenty minutes.

Qin Yuanging instantly felt less confident.

“What time did you arrive?”

“Ten forty-four.”

Li Chongge was precise to the minute.

Qin Yuanging regretted going out tonight, otherwise he would have been able to see Li Chongge sooner.

Fortunately, he came over tonight. If he had to wait until tomorrow to know that Li Chongge had returned, he would feel very sorry.

“If I had known you were coming back tonight, I wouldn’t have gone out.” Qin Yuanging entered the room, raised the flowers in his hand and explained, “The previous bouquet had withered, I came to replace it with a new one.”

There was only a clean, empty vase on the dining table. The original bouquet of withered flowers should have been disposed of by Li Chongge.

Li Chongge silently picked up the vase, filled it with water and placed it properly. Qin Yuanging inserted the pre-arranged flowers one by one and then asked him, “Have you had dinner?”

The colors in Li Chongge’s house were very simple, the simple black, white and gray encompassed all the colors of the furniture.

This colorful bouquet made this lifeless space suddenly burst into vitality.

“No, I came back as soon as I finished my work.”

Qin Yuanging tilted his head to look over, and suddenly realized that Li Chongge’s early return seemed to be because of his implicit urging a few days ago.

Joy filled Qin Yuanging’s entire heart, he deliberately asked, “Did you come back early because you had something urgent to deal with?”

Li Chongge: “…”

Qin Yuanging really wanted to hear Li Chongge say it himself.

“Didn’t you tell me to come back sooner?”

Li Chongge didn’t deliberately deny it, because he vaguely felt that Qin Yuanging was deliberately asking this.

Qin Yuanging got what he wanted to hear, but Li Chongge’s puzzled expression made this sentence devoid of any ambiguous color.

But this didn’t affect Qin Yuanging’s good mood.

“Yes, I did.”

“Do you have an appetite to eat something now?”

In fact, Li Chongge had eaten a little food before leaving, and wasn’t hungry now, but he still said, “A little.”

“Let’s go, upstairs, I’ll make something for you.”

Li Chongge’s refrigerator was useless and seemed superfluous.

Li Chongge followed Qin Yuanging upstairs. As soon as he sat down, he heard him calling him from the kitchen.

Li Chongge quickly put down his phone and went in, only to see that Qin Yuanging had bought an apron at some point, with a blue and white background and white puppy patterns on it.

Very cute.

“My hands are greasy, help me tie it on.”

Li Chongge squinted his eyes, feeling that Qin Yuanging and this apron were clearly completely different styles, but there was a strange harmony.

“Why did you buy this style?”

“Isn’t it good looking?”

Li Chongge had just raised the apron when Qin Yuanging himself slipped the rope hanging around his neck, then opened his arms: “Help me tie the two ropes behind my back.”

Qin Yuanging didn’t turn around, and Li Chongge didn’t go around behind him. The two maintained a face-to-face posture similar to an embrace.

Li Chongge tilted his head slightly, wrapped his hands around Qin Yuanging’s waist, and simply tied a knot for him.

As Li Chongge made this move, if either of them took a slight step forward, they would be firmly embraced.

But neither of them took that step.

“Good looking.”

Qin Yuanging’s cheeks flushed, and he quickly took half a step back.

“What?”

“Didn’t you just ask me if it looked good?”

After being “invited” out of the kitchen by Qin Yuanging, Li Chongge imitated Qin Yuanging and nestled in his beanbag chair.

He wanted to spend many days and nights like this with Qin Yuanging.

After dinner, it was time for Li Chongge to go downstairs, and Qin Yuanging was a little unwilling.

So, after racking his brains, he found a fairly decent reason.

“Didn’t you say you had new pajamas? I washed the set you gave me last time, give me another set.”

Li Chongge didn’t mind Qin Yuanging’s fickleness, and said good-naturedly, “Then you wait, I’ll go downstairs and get it for you.”

“Don’t bother, I’ll go myself.”

The two returned to the twentieth floor again, and Li Chongge took him to his dressing room.

“Not just shirts and pajamas, you can take whatever you like.”

In Li Chongge’s dressing room, the island counter was filled with a whole row of valuable watches, but Qin Yuanging wasn’t interested at all.

He didn’t look sideways, his goal was clear.

“I only need pajamas.”

“Okay, wait for me to find them.”

Qin Yuanging nodded, standing still. Just as he took out his phone, he heard a muffled sound of something falling to the ground, which was particularly clear in the silent early morning.

Qin Yuanging’s body took a step back instinctively, and crashed straight into the corner of the island counter.

“It’s okay, my suitcase fell over.”

Li Chongge took the pajamas over and saw Qin Yuanging looking at him with red eyes.

“What’s wrong?”

Qin Yuanging covered his waist and replied miserably, “I bumped into it, take a look and see if it’s serious.”

Li Chongge hurriedly put down his pajamas and came over to lift Qin Yuanging’s clothes, but suddenly stopped.

Qin Yuanging didn’t know Li Chongge’s hesitation, and took the initiative to reveal a section of his slender waist, which was slightly delicate for a man.

“How is it?”

Li Chongge’s eyes swept over it aggressively, and the whiteness that caught his eye made his eyes feel a little hot.

Then he saw a large red mark on Qin Yuanging’s lower back.

“It looks like it’s just a little red, does it hurt a lot? Do you want to put some medicine on it?”

“Take a picture with your phone and show it to me.”

Li Chongge took out his phone and took three pictures from different angles to show Qin Yuanging.

Qin Yuanging glanced at it casually and raised an arm towards Li Chongge.

“Help me to the sofa to lie down.”

Before Li Chongge could react, Qin Yuanging had already leaned over.

Even if they were good friends, the two rarely had physical contact, let alone to this extent of shoulder-to-shoulder and hand-to-hand contact. The thin summer clothes were not enough to resist the warm temperature of the two.

Li Chongge held Qin Yuanging’s waist firmly with one hand, and held the arm that was hanging around his neck with the other, and moved him to the sofa.

As soon as Qin Yuanging touched the sofa, he lay on it.

“Rub it for me.”

Li Chongge’s palm was very hot, so hot that Qin Yuanging subconsciously grabbed Li Chongge’s wrist that was hanging by his side.

Jiang Muyuan’s teaching had a deviation.

Qin Yuanging’s weak will collapsed before Li Chongge’s.

“What’s wrong, did I hurt you?”

What terrible lines, Qin Yuanging was even more ashamed.

“No, I’m fine, I’ll just lie down for a while.”

Qin Yuanging stayed on the sofa and didn’t get up, and Li Chongge didn’t chase him away. He took a thin blanket and gently covered it on his waist.

“I’ll get you some medicine.”

“No, it was just a light bump, no need to be so delicate to apply medicine. Go pour me a glass of water, I’ll rest for a while and go to sleep.”

Li Chongge found it a little funny. Qin Yuanging was clearly putting on a look like he was about to collapse, but now he was accusing him of making a fuss.

But Li Chongge also admitted that the red mark on Qin Yuanging couldn’t be called an “injury” at all.

So he said lightly, “Whatever you want.”

Li Chongge brought the water back, and Qin Yuanging had already sat up.

“I’m sleepy, I’m leaving.”

Li Chongge gave him the water, but he didn’t take it, got up and left straight away: “Not cold, I don’t want it.”

Li Chongge: “…”

The sound of the door closing made Li Chongge realize that Qin Yuanging hadn’t taken the pajamas with him.

I’ll take them up to him tomorrow.

Li Chongge walked to the dining table, his fingertips gently stroking the petals.

The tender flesh on Qin Yuanging’s waist was very soft.
