Did you watch the Fan Meeting yesterday, guys??? How was it? I couldn't follow it because there was no wifi at my new house T_T. But I returned to my old house today to give you guys this update!
Honestly, our two boys are so "shuai"!
***********
Yuan Zong carried Xia Yao inside, then placed a big bucket he got from behind the house in front of Xia Yao, "Pee in here."
Xia Yao scrunched his face, "don't you have a WC here?"
"There's no heating system in the toilet, just do it here."
Xia Yao, due to holding it in for too long, didn't seem to care any more as he pulled down his pant, shivering; but because of his iced up fingers, and the tight zipper, he couldn't pull his pants down no matter how hard he tried. So he had to make a pitiful face at Yuan Zong, asking for help.
"Help me take this off, quickly please, I can't hold it in anymore."
Yuan Zong hooked his fingers at Xia Yao's waistband and pulled the pants down, his fingers came into contact with Xia Yao's bottom, which was all wet from sweat, soaking his underwear.
Maybe it was because he's been holding it in for too long, or because of Yuan Zong's stare, Xia Yao could not turn on the water works at all.
Yuan Zong reached in front and used his hand.
"Ssssssss..!"
Xia Yao was holding onto his 'bird' while Yuan Zong's hand was supporting Xia Yao's, four watchful eyes witnessed that waterfall gush down with vigor.
"So virile." Yuan Zong commented.
Xia Yao's face reddened immensely, enjoying the comfort while also feeling a bit embarrassed. Especially when Yuan Zong was currently using his hand to tighten the "birdie's" head to help him pee, Xia Yao honestly didn't know which hole he can hide in now.
After the "heartfelt reunion", Xia Yao threw off his shoes, pulled off his soaking wet pants, urgently headed for the heated bed, grabbed himself a nest of blanket and settled in.
"Come dry your hair before you crawl inside the blankets."
Yuan Zong's words fell on deaf ears as all that was dominating Xia Yao's current mind was cold, cold, cold. He rolled around until the blankets enveloped him like a cocoon, then remained shivering uncontrollably inside.
Yuan Zong brought a large hairdryer over; a large hand raised Xia Yao's head, pulling it close, blowing dry every inch of hair on Xia Yao's head. Xia Yao slowly regained his warmth as he sunk his head into Yuan Zong's body, eyes closed, obediently following each movement of hot wind, a weary expression etched upon his face.
Yuan Zong watch at him through solemn eyes, his heart breaking into millions of pieces which he was sure going to be lost forever.
"Did you know today's temperature dropped to its lowest? You're lucky you made it into the house, why did you have to come?"
Xia Yao replied indigently, "I didn't come here to especially see you either, I got few days off so I came here for sightseeing, had I known what awful weather you have here I wouldn't have come." Yuan Zong didn't say anything as he stood up and placed the hairdryer down.
Xia Yao forced his eyes to open a tiny crack, witnessing Yuan Zong taking out his "pee" bucket.
"That..." Xia Yao made an uncomfortable face, "Are you disposing it for me?"
"If not me then who will?"
Xia Yao zipped mouth, his glowing beetroot face stuck itself to the wall, secretly grinning from ear to ear.
He waited until Yuan Zong came back inside with a bucket of hot water.
"Come and wipe yourself off with hot water. It'll help you get warm."
Xia Yao, however, continued to remain in bed, not moving an inch. He had just took his clothes off and was beginning to heat up, he would rather die than get off this bed now.
Yuan Zong could only reply, "I'll help you wipe down then."
"No need." Xia Yao said.
Yuan Zong dipped a face towel into the hot water, rinsed it, and took it over to where Xia Yao was lying. The result? Xia Yao's feet wanted to play hide and seek, and even when Yuan Zong had a hold of it, he couldn't pull it out from the blankets... Yuan Zong only had to use a bit of force for Xia Yao to cry out painfully, making it impossible for him to raise another finger.
Forget it, the towel had become cold anyway, so Yuan Zong threw it to one side and crawled inside the covers. (Finally! *eye roll* =))) )
This was the moment Xia Yao had been waiting for. Although the bed was warm, it cannot be compared to the fire of that special someone's chest.
Yuan Zong, surprisingly, did not rush to hug him, instead, he reached out his hand from underneath the duvet, "Feet?"
Xia Yao replied, "Already hidden."
"Listen to me, give me your feet."
Xia Yao obediently placed his two freezing feet inside Yuan Zong's outstretched hands.
Endless waves of heat consecutively invaded Xia Yao's heart, bypassing "Antarctica", his two hands were the source of priceless warmth.
Feeling that Xia Yao's feet weren't heating up enough, Yuan Zong continued to use friction.
Xia Yao's feet slowly regained its feelings, and started itching due to Yuan Zong's rubbing.
"Ha ha ha... Stop running... Ha ha..." - cough cough.
Xia Yao half laughed half coughed, his face was pinkish and hot, his voice becoming hoarse.
Yuan Zong put his hand on Xia Yao's forehead to inspect, taking note of its increasing temperature.
"You are getting hotter, aren't you? How about we go to the local infirmary?" Xia Yao shook his head violently in denial, "I can't be bothered."
To which Yuan Zong replied, "I'll call the doctor here then."
Xia Yao mumbled under his breath, "I've never had to use medication when I get sick, I get better by myself."
Truth to be told, that is exactly what Yuan Zong would usually do, unless it's incurable; but his normal way of thinking has never worked in Xia Yao's circumstances, has it?
Xia Yao saw Yuan Zong's "in the clouds" expression, so he quickly wrapped his arms around Yuan Zong's neck, saying, "The wind is getting inside the blankets."
Yuan Zong immediately tightened his grip around Xia Yao's body, hugging him, "Still?"
"Uhm, chilly wind keeps on getting in."
Yuan Zong knew that not only was Xia Yao's body was frozen, but his mind was as well. His heart hurting, Yuan Zong pushed Xia Yao's whole body down, then used a blanket to wrap him up, sealing off any opening with his long arms.
"How about now?"
Xia Yao sleepily shook his head, then fell into an unconscious state.
Yuan Zong, however, could not fall asleep, Xia Yao would always mumble about being cold, making Yuan Zong's usually tough, hardened mentality can't help but feel worried; anxious as well as endearing. Xia Yao laid writhing in bed until midnight, only then did his temperature begin to drop. Sweat beaded his skin, making it sticky, Xia Yao started to kick off his human blanket.
"Hot... Let go..."
Not only did Yuan Zong let go but, on the other hand, he hugged Xia Yao even tighter. Hot air poured into Xia Yao's ear.
"Listen to me, bear with it, just a little more. Let it sweat out and you will feel better in the morning."
Xia Yao ceased all movements so that when he wakes up tomorrow, his health will have improved, his head cleared, to take on Yuan Zong's red hot "oak". He will endure.
Early next morning, Xia Ren Zhong brought along a bucket of hope onto the plane with him.
Before the airplane departed, his phone rang.
"Mr Xia, your phone."
Xia Ren Zhong glanced at the screen, it was the matchmaker - the person who arranged a meeting for Xia Yao with the other girl.
"Mrs Chen ah!" Xia Ren Zhong laughed thunderously, "How is your new year?"
"Very good, how about you?"
"Extremely good."
Mrs. Chen hesitated for a moment, "Mr. Xia, I need to ask you something."
"Please, ask away."
Mrs. Chen laughed uncomfortably, "I only want to ask you, when can the kids meet...?" The grin on Xia Ren Zhong's face quickly froze in place, "What did you say?"
"I said, when can we let the children meet? The girl is really unsettled about this whole matchmaking thing, don't know what are you planning to do?"
Xia Ren Zhong was taken back, "Didn't they meet yesterday?"
"Yesterday? She was really persistent in finding me yesterday!" Mrs Chen raised her voice, "Has he accepted to go on a blind date with somebody else? Mr Xia! You better tell me the truth, has your son got his eyes set on someone else...?"
Xia Ren Zhong slammed the phone down, flexed his muscles, and angrily growled.
"What a good boy you are."
Meanwhile, at home, Mrs Xia was very much unaware of the situation, so when Xuan Da Yu came over looking for Xia Yao, she happily said, "My Xia Yao stayed overnight at a girl's place [1], shouldn't you know these kinds of things."
[1] "Overnight" here means to sleep with a woman.
"Overnight?" A frown formed between Xuan Da Yu's eyes, "With whom?"
Mrs Xia said, "His father called a matchmaker to arrange a blind date for him and another lady, they've been out all night and haven't returned yet."
Xuan Da Yu drove away with a gloomy face, his feelings were in a tangled mess, like a fruit salad with too many flavors. Xia Yao really didn't think anything of that night, it was him who was thinking to much. In no way would it cross Xuan Da Yu's mine that Xia Yao went one step further to check for signs of sexual intercourse, because in his heart, no man could ever touch his Xia Yao.
Xuan Da Yu had never told Xia Yao his true feelings in fear of wounding their friendship and maybe even losing it.
After a cigarette, Xuan Da Yu, together with his pained heart, joined the rows of traffic slowly inching forward.
Unfortunately, there appeared to be a traffic jam due to some unknown reason, tragic flow froze on the spot. Xuan Da Yu got out of his car, and was pulled by an unseen force into the crowd to discover a fair nearby.
It has been ages since Xuan Da Yu last visited a Beijing fair. The most recent one was back in high school when he and Xia Yao attended together, they even stole a stilt from the circus.
Memories washed over him making Xuan Da Yu miss old times, and so his legs, as if it had a mind of its own, walked inside the fair.
Beijing's handicrafts are no doubt superbly made, all types of delicacies from the south and north can be bought here; also on displayed were and array of jewels and toys from every region... Xuan Da Yu strolled the fair grounds. A faint melodic music traveled to his ears, some kind of performances was happening. Xuan Da Yu headed in that direction.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please give a round of an applause to the Great Mo Dou. Master Mo Dou is a talented man with magical hands, he can make anything you desire appear in front of your face."
Few random claps sounded, a man wearing a weird costume stepped out onto the stage.
Xuan Da Yu stood at the far back and heard some people whispered.
"Why is there a thin veil covering this Mo Dou's face?"
Xuan Da Yu focused his gaze on the magician standing on stage.
