Resplendent Times

Chapter 102

The Ji Yushi in his youth had never thought that he would have an intimate relationship with another person.

Even if he knew his sexuality, he didnt have any special thoughts about it, and even after going to a gay bar and studying how things were done between people of the same sex, he never thought that it would happen to him. He couldnt imagine what his other half would look like, nor could he imagine how he would be able to accept forming such a close union with another human being and exchanging their everything with each other.

Humid and sweaty.

The cicadas cried out in the summer night.

The room was very quiet with only one nightlight turned on.

The bed sheets were a dark blue colour. As the moonlight entered through the blinds, it left lines of pale light across the snow-white and sweaty back.

The mattress was so soft, it felt like he was sinking in.

Ji Yushi sank into the fluffy blanket face down and was forced to sway with the rhythm. He saw a pillow fall onto the carpet.

The feeling building up was very scary. His fingers unconsciously grabbed the only pillow left on the bed while another larger hand grabbed his hand. Because of the force and effort used, the veins on the back of that hand were bulging.

Dont bite the sheets.

Song Qinglan pressed against his back. The light and shadow of the blinds moved across his wheat-coloured body and his sweat made his broad shoulders glisten like honey.

Ji Yushi: ..

Song Qinglan stuck a finger into his mouth to rescue the pitiful and wet bedsheet, and then gently stroked his teeth and rubbed his lips.

Dont want to hear your own voice?

Ji Yushi closed his eyes and didnt want to answer. He unconsciously bit his lips.

Unlike ordinary people, he not only remembered all the useful information, but also things that left him embarrassed. He had no choice. Those memories would always appear without warning, embarrassing him. How could he allow himself to feed his memories with more of it?

What to do? I want to hear. Song Qinglan let out a low and evil laugh, Han HanLet me hear you.

Ji Yushi was both hot and uncomfortable.

He already could no longer bear with this kind of torture anymore. He wanted to crawl away but because Song Qinglan was too heavy, he couldnt go anywhere.

Okay?

Ill also let you hear?

Mnn

That annoying pleasant voice entered his ears, reaching the depths of his mind.

Suddenly, Ji Yushi raised his neck, his body trembling and spasming, and his mind turning blank. He wasnt able to calm down for a while. By the time it was over, and he turned his head back, his eyes were already filled with tears.

Song Qinglan was startled. He had actually made Ji Yushi cry.

Immediately following that, his face was hit by a pillow.

Ji Yushis voice was low and a little hoarse, Have you had enough?!

It definitely wasnt enough.

Song Qinglan wasnt ashamed or annoyed. His skin was thicker than the bed.

He turned the man over and leaned down to kiss him. While Ji Yushi was caught unprepared, he continued the expedition he had only just started.

They hid into the sheets.

Dont let the moonlight see.

Ji Yushi once again hooked his arms around his neck and sank into the deep sea.

*

Ji Yushi didnt dream last night.

He slept deeply, just like how he did when he returned to the third command centre and didnt want to wake up because of physical exhaustion. The difference between now and that time was that he was lying defencelessly in Song Qinglans arms. He slept deeply the entire time and only woke up when the sky darkened the next day.

This was Ji Yushis first time experiencing what people meant by oversleeping.

He sat up in bed, his mind still groggy. It took him some time to remember that he was later brought into the bathroom for another bath and had fallen asleep directly on the sofa afterwards.

Ji Yushi belatedly realised that this was called being spoiled.

After doing those things, his body felt a little strange.

Especially that certain place, it made his act of getting out of bed very unnatural.

But when both his feet touched the ground, he finally knew that it was in fact nothing compared to this. His legs and waist felt like they had been pierced by multiple needles. Along with the stabbing pain was muscle soreness. He could hardly walk.

Ji Yushi stood in place for a while to adapt. After his body got used to it, he slowly walked out the bedroom.

Song Qinglan wasnt in the living room.

Ji Yushi turned towards the kitchen and found a glass on the island in the centre to pour himself a glass of water. He emptied half of it in one go.

The housekeeping robot followed behind him. It had been trying to offer him its assistance ever since he started pouring water for himself.

Seeing that Ji Yushi was done, it wanted to help him wash the glass, but Ji Yushi only turned on the faucet and skilfully washed the glass himself.

Ji Yushi then left.

The housekeeping robot watched his leaving figure with a tilted head.

Although the sore feeling from doing those things was still there, it was feeling much better now.

When he practiced Jiu-Jitsu during his younger years, he had often hurt himself and since then he had developed the ability to recover quickly following strenuous exercise. They were all men; he didnt need to wait in bed for Song Qinglan to take care of him. Whats more

A voice could be heard coming from the lounge room.

Song Qinglan was making a call.

Then next time. His tone was gentle, I cant step away yet.

Ji Yushi stood at the door. He leaned against the door frame and watched his back.

Song Qinglan hadnt put on a shirt. He sat in an armchair with his bare back facing the door.

There were many nail marks on his well-proportioned and defined back muscles, some of which were faintly bruised-If Ji Yushi had grown his nails out, it probably wouldnt have been just that and there may even be bloody scratch marks instead. In addition to that, Song Qinglan also had some hickeys on his body, mostly on the shoulders which were the places Ji Yushi could barely reach. It was just that the ring of teeth marks in that area was somewhat obvious.

When it came to biting, Ji Yushi realised that he was quite gifted.

The more he bit, the harder Song Qinglan moved.

Therefore, he had also contributed a lot to the wonderful experience last night.

This made his cheeks burn up.

He originally wanted to walk away, but he heard Song Qinglan continue to say, Yeah, didnt want to hide it from you. Havent been together for that long.

Ji Yushi gave up the thought of leaving and openly listened to Song Qinglans phone call.

Its someone from Tianqiong. Song Qinglan seemed to be interrogated by an elder, But not just a colleague, we knew each other since we were a child.

From Ning City.

..The kindergarten attached to Ning University. We were in the same class.

I dont know if youve met before, you only came to pick me up a few times back then.

Yes, a few months younger than me. Very smart. Has several degrees.

You dont need to buy those things. Song Qinglan laughed, Wont need those.

Hes a man.

Ji Yushis expression changed slightly. He knew that Song Qinglan would tell his family sooner or later, but he didnt expect it to be so soon. After all, regardless of what they have experienced, to the others, they have only known each other for a month.

For a person to change their sexuality in just a month and even reach a state where he was willing to do anything for the other party, it really didnt sound true.

Even he himself and Ji Minyue had tacitly not said anything to Professor Ji. Though after Song Qinglans public act of coming out, the news would probably reach Chief Lin and then enter Professor Jis ears soon enough.

Sure enough, after Song Qinglan finished saying that, silence followed for several seconds.

The person on the other end didnt know how to react.

Ji Yushi couldnt see Song Qinglans face and didnt know what was being said through the phone.

He was originally leaning against the door frame but at some point in time he had unconsciously straightened up.

Okay. Song Qinglan finally spoke. His tone as usual was relaxed, When we have the chance, I will arrange for you to meet.

Song Qinglan ended the call and stood up. When he went over to Ji Yushi, he didnt seem surprised by his presence.

After getting closer, he bowed his head and kissed Ji Yushi, You walk like a cat. Completely soundless.

Ji Yushi asked, Who called?

Song Qinglan, My mother.

Song Qinglan rarely talked about his family. Ji Yushi only knew that he came from a single-parent household, and he went to the kindergarten in Ning City because his parents had separated and were fighting for custody at the time. He suddenly realised that he didnt know much about Song Qinglan. Because of the other partys strong psychological strength and optimistic and relaxed attitude towards life, it made it hard for one to associate him with negativity.

Even in the bubble world, Song Qinglan didnt have any desires and there were very few changes in his life. It was as if he never hesitated when making decisions and lived straightforwardly without regret.

She works out of town, and I just happened to be on vacation while shes passing by Jiang City so she originally wanted to arrange a time to meet. Song Qinglan said, She immediately guessed that I had a partner. Why are women instincts so scary?

Ji Yushi, .

Song Qingan, Fortunately I bent quickly.

Ji Yushi however was more concerned about something else, What did she say?

Song Qinglan knew that he was asking about the gender matter.

Knowing that Ji Yushi would be nervous, he didnt go around in circles, My mother is a progressive woman and very accepting. She originally had a necklace she wanted to give you but got angry when she found out it wouldnt be of use.

Ji Yushi had a way with getting along with middle-aged women.

His adoptive mother, Aunt Su, was also a university lecturer before she retired. He had plenty of experience coaxing her and making her happy.

Lets buy a present for her. Ji Yushi, Okay?

This kind of Ji Yushi seemed livelier.

Song Qinglan liked it very much.

He made a sound of agreement and pulled the person into his arms. Just as he was emotionally thinking over what to say, he heard Ji Yushi say, Hungry.

Song Qinglan, .

Ji Yushi, Does your place have anything to eat?

Although he had eaten his fill of hot pot, even Ironman wouldnt be able to stand it after a whole night of exercise and a whole day of sleep.

Ji Yushi was in urgent need of energy replenishment.

Song Qinglan had already prepared the food. He wasnt going to let him go hungry.

But he still had something he wanted to say, This is also your place.

Ji Yushi: ?

Song Qinglan said, Three bedrooms, one living room and one lounge room. The one on the left will be your study, the one in the middle for the cats and the one on the right will be our bedroom. The balcony is large, you can plant your favourite plants and install cat towers there. We can change to a big table so that we can eat at home and even be able to cater when the squad comes over.

Ji Yushi froze.

Song Qinglans words made him feel strange.

Was this their future plans?

Why? Song Qinglan let go of him and bowed his head, You want to turn back now?

Ji Yushi, Wait a minute

Song Qinglan pointed at the teeth marks on his shoulders and said very naturally, You want to go back on your words after we slept together? Didnt you agree that you would stay in Jiang City and become an official member of the squad?

Ji Yushi didnt want to go back on his words, Since when did I

Forget it. Song Qinglan said, In any case, you wont be able to go anywhere under my watch.

He was pushed back into the kitchen.

Like he was casting magic, Song Qinglan conjured up a table filled with lightly flavoured food. He even sat down and helped him pick out fish bones.

Ji Yushi focused on eating for a while before remembering something.

He thought for a while and said seriously, You cant install a cat tower on the balcony, its too dangerous. Lets put it in the cats room.

KK has something to say:

One more till the end!
