Encounters - Chapter 6

Translator: Deyonna

Shen Zhi was about to fall asleep but got up to drink the congee that Xi Yu cooked.

When Xi Yu picked up the bowl in the kitchen, Shen Zhi couldn't help but run out of the room to find him. Tonight was Shen Zhi's first time. Although he didn't feel any pain, he still felt a little weird when walking. Xi Yu examined it when he was bathing him. No matter how careful he was, there was still a little swelling.

When Shen Zhi walked to the door of the kitchen, he was pouring congee into the bowl with his back facing him. You could see the white mist on the congee just out of the pot filling the air, dissipating in the warm yellow light. Shen Zhi felt that his whole heart was covered in such a warm mist. There is a busy figure in the kitchen for you. You two have a tacit understanding and don't need to communicate. Occasionally, you would look at each other. Love and company are silently written into these kinds of dull nights. This is the scene that Shen Zhi has always envied and longed for.

Xi Yu originally intend to bring the congee to the room, but when he turned around, he found Shen Zhi already standing at the door of the kitchen, looking at him stupidly. When passing by him, he couldn't help reaching out and pinching his face, then took a cushion and put it on the chair beside the dining table. "Come here."

It's a plain white rice congee. Shen Zhi doesn't usually cook and doesn't prepare any ingredients at home. A little white sugar was added to the congee, so it was sweet when eaten.

Xi Yu sat next to him and watched him eat. Shen Zhi remembered the night they ate together for the first time. He also asked him to eat congee after getting drunk, and he also looked at him like this without saying a word. It's just that at that time they were still in a nominal interest marriage relationship, and now they have done the most intimate thing. That night, Xi Yu was a bit aggressive, but tonight he was holding him in his arms and coaxing him softly.

In fact, Xi Yu's real way of interacting with him is not exactly the same as he first imagined, but whenever he gets closer to the real him, Shen Zhi only feels that he loves him a little more every time.

He remembered the last time they had a meal. Xi Yu had a sudden question. He put down the spoon, licked his lips, turned his head, and looked solemnly at Xi Yu, his chest hot. "Actually, I married you…"

Before he could finish speaking, Xi Yu pulled him to his lap and sat down, kissing the corner of his mouth. "Eat first, then let's talk."

He knew what he was going to say, and even before tonight he was waiting for him to take the initiative to speak, so he said to Lu Xun, "I'm waiting for him."

But he just felt for a moment that he was selfish and shameless in this way. He knew the other party's cards, but he pressed him little by little. Even though he was already moved, he still wanted him to make the move, make the so-called initiative, and leave more chips for himself. He posed as a giver, and even said, "I'm waiting for him" such words, when you carefully thought about it. In the end, who was really waiting for whom?

"I'm glad I got married to you." Xi Yu whispered in his ear, his tone gentle and sincere, "It's like a written riddle at the beginning of a book. I was blind to it at first, but the more I read towards the end, the more I felt the answer to the riddle was slowly unfolding."

Shen Zhi was stunned. He could only feel his hot palms and speeding up heartbeat. Xi Yu cupped his face, and a soft kiss fell on the center of his eyebrows. "The answer to my riddle is you. I should have gone to find you and pursue you. Thank you for your willingness to wait for me all this time."

Shen Zhi turned around and threw himself into his arms, his voice choking a little. "I've liked you for a long time, you don't know… when I married you that time, I felt like a cheater. I really like you so much, ah."

Xi Yu could only hug the person who was slightly trembling in his arms and kept on kissing him. "I love you. It's later than you, so I will love you a little more every day. Xiao Zhi, I really like you too, ah."

Xi Yu had never been so frank and gentle before, but when the two of them lay on the bed and were about to go to sleep, he started to make trouble again. He didn't let Shen Zhi bite his lip, and he kept rubbing his finger against the corner of his lips, but he wouldn't put it in. Ever since he knew that Shen Zhi liked him secretly since high school, he had been asking all kinds of questions.

"Why didn't you write me a love letter at that time?"

"Did you do it secretly by yourself? How did you do it?"

"Have you ever liked someone else in college?"

... Various questions emerged one after another. If Shen Zhi didn't answer honestly, he would hang up his finger to keep him from sleeping.

When Shen Zhi woke up the next day, it was already noon. The result of drinking congee the night before was not having a headache after getting drunk, but he still felt a little foreign sensation in his lower body.

He thought that Xi Yu had already gone to work. He had always been very meticulous with his work, but he didn't expect him to be sitting beside the bed with him.

At this time, Xi Yu also wanted to be an arm-flinging shopkeeper[1] not concerned about anything, but he had already pushed the morning meeting to the afternoon, so he needed to go to the company in the afternoon.

[1]sb who asks others to work but does nothing himself

It was rare for Shen Zhi to act like a spoiled child. He didn't want to part with him for a second, so he begged pitifully, "Can I go with you? I don't want to be alone. I want to be with you."

Xi Yu originally wanted to see him finish his meal and let him rest well, but finally agreed to go with him. He actually hates to part with him.

After Shen Zhi followed Xi Yu into the office, everyone's eyes outside were full of gossip. "The boss' object is so cold, so abstinent, really capable!" However, at this time, what Xi Yu thought was, "My wife is so good and cute."

There's a lounge in Xi Yu's office, where he sleeps almost every day when he is busy with work. Shen Zhi originally wanted to sleep on the sofa outside so that he could see him all the time. But Xi Yu won't agree.

"Be good. Have a good rest in the afternoon. I'll be outside, and we'll go home after work."

Shen Zhi lay on the bed and put his arms around his waist. "I can't sleep by myself. Can you stay with me for a while?"

It was impossible for Xi Yu to refuse him, so he took off his coat and lay down with him. As soon as he lay down, his earlobe was held, and one arm firmly held him in his bosom.

He knew that Shen Zhi just wanted to sleep, but as soon as he sucked his earlobe, he couldn't help his body from getting hot, and his desires arose somewhere. He was about to go to a meeting, and now he just wanted to coax Shen Zhi to sleep as soon as possible. He tightened his body and endured it for a few seconds, but he couldn't endure it. One palm cupped the sides of his face, forcing him to pucker his lips and open his mouth slightly.

"Let me see, is there an aphrodisiac in your mouth?" Xi Yu's voice carried a bit of laughter and a bit of dangerous desire.

Shen Zhi blushed a little, and at the same time, he felt something hard pressing on his leg. Normally, he would dodge silently, but today he couldn't help laughing softly.

Xi Yu's words last night gave him a sense of security.

"Dare to laugh? Ah? If it weren't for the meeting later, you would have cried after several rounds, baby."

Xi Yu's threat didn't frighten him at all. Instead, he raised his head and licked his earlobe.

Xi Yu buried his head in his shoulder. His voice was doting and helpless. "I'll stay inside your body, okay? En?"

While sucking on his earlobe, Shen Zhi hummed and replied, "Okay."

Hearing his answer, Xi Yu couldn't help pinching his ass fiercely, "You've got big guts, dare to say yes, alright, I'll remember." After speaking, he gave Shen Zhi a big bite on the neck.

After the commotion, he still didn't fall asleep, and it was time for the meeting. In the end, Xi Yu went out to inform them that the meeting was postponed for another five minutes.

After coming in again, he didn't dare to make trouble with Shen Zhi again. "Good boy, go to sleep. Here's my finger, okay?"

Shen Zhi obediently took his index finger and closed his eyes obediently.

Hearing that the breathing of the person beside him gradually slowed down, sinking into a deep sleep, Xi Yu's eyes were gradually dyed with lust, which was not purely all physical desire, but much deeper, more, and more hidden than that.

He has to rely on me to fall asleep. Even when sleeping, he has to rely on me.

Thinking of this, Xi Yu felt an inexplicable satisfaction in his heart.

He got angry and impulsive that day and said he wanted him to change. In fact, he knew that he didn't want him to change at all in his heart, and he wished that he would need him for the rest of his life.
