In the blink of an eye, spring had passed, welcoming autumn. Together, Fan Yuan and Yan Rui travelled happily, comfortably enjoying their time while going along with the plot as they went to Cangzhou. According to the news from one of the hidden spies, the male and female lead had already arrived outside the city.
It had been a long time since Fan Yuan had seen those two funny chaps, he really missed them. However, such words couldnât be said out loud to Yan Rui as recently, Yan Rui-daren had become exceedingly childish. He could turn into a little pot of vinegar in mere minutes â let alone his two human friends, if Fan Yuan told him that he liked Boss Liâs dog who lived next door, he would have a hot, piping dog stew this noon.
Yes, his attitude was extremely abominable! His means were also particularly fierce and cruel! But Fan Yuan had no way around it, because every time he protested, he would be stopped by a single sentence from Yan Rui-daren.
âYang Chengtianâs character was made to be a pervert. Why are you trying to talk to me about morality, hm?â
Fan Yuan was speechless and could only say, âMain God-daren, you are right, please continue like this qwqâ
The two were currently having a meal in a private room. Fan Yuan couldnât stand being held in Yan Rui arms and fed like a baby, so he struggled hard to get down, but of course Yan Rui wasnât willing to let go. Yan Rui said, âYuanâer, you didnât know how to use chopsticks when you were young. It was Daddy who always fed you. Why are you so shy now?â
Fan Yuan was so angry that he wanted to scold the manâs mother. Was that how things happened between the two of them? That was the original Baiyuan and Yang Chengtian! Baiyuan was abandoned as a child and raised by a beggar. He didnât even have a decent meal, let alone one with chopsticks. It was Yang Chengtian who pitied him, embracing Baiyuan as he kept feeding him for several years.
Since Yan Rui used the plot to silence him, it went without saying that Fan Yuan could get back at him in the exact same way using the plot. Fan Yuan pushed away the fish that Yan Rui had picked up and yelled angrily, âYou were so good to me back then just to treat me like this today?â
Yan Rui fed the fish into his mouth and smiled, âAm I not good to you now?â
Seeing that he didnât answer, he reached out his hand to grasp Fan Yuanâs jaw. Though he didnât use much force, the part of skin that he touched had already turned red, almost looking like a bloodstain on a canvas of fine and flawless silk. This only served to add to Yan Ruiâs desire to push him down and have his way with Fan Yuan. Fan Yuan saw the look in Yan Ruiâs eyes deepen as his voice turned deeper, âIn this world, there will never be anyone better to you, or anyone who can love you more than I.â
In a moment of happiness, Fan Yuan felt that Yan Rui wasnât following the plot, but purely saying such words for him to hear, causing his heart to beat hard like a clap of thunder. When Yan Rui saw that Fan Yuan was lost in his own thoughts, he gave a small grin and gulped down his cup of wine in one shot, he then looked over and passed the wine into Fan Yuanâs mouth.
The taste of peach and plum was pure, freshly clear and sharp, spreading the faint fragrance of wine between the two. Fan Yuan didnât know whether the depths of his soul were stirred from the wine or the kiss. He could only think of one thing â there was no wine in this world that was as delicately sweet, mellow and lingering as this one.
Intermixed wine with his salivary fluids flowed down the corners of Fan Yuanâs lips, trickling down his slender, long fair nape into the recesses of his robes. The scene was inexplicably alluring, and Yan Rui meticulously licked and pressed his lips down against Fan Yuanâs skin as he followed the trail of liquid. Fan Yuan couldnât help but roll his head back, his curved profile appearing beautiful and moving as the room was left with an ambiguous scene.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open with a loud bang. A few pompous-looking rich youngsters, appearing with a fair round belly and swelled heads shouted, âIf you have any sense, quickly leave! This Master fanices this room.â
An eccentric man with a sharp voice added, âOh, it seems that we disturbed the good times of others, hahahaha.â
The gaze of man who yelled previously fell on Fan Yuan, and he couldnât help but swallow, âLittle beauty, why donât you follow me? I guarantee that you will eat well and drink well.â Several people laughed along slyly.
Yan Rui didnât even lift his gaze, simply picking up his handkerchief to wipe the remnants of liquid on Fan Yuanâs mouth and neck. Fan Yuan glanced at the people at the door and softly called out for Xiao Wu who immediately replied, âDing, these people are are Li Dafu, the nephew of the local magistrate, Sun Qiang, the son of a rich businessman, and a few other rich youngsters who live in Cangzhou.â
Fan Yuan let out an âenâ in acknowledgement. These people were cannon fodder and would be killed by the male lead soon. Although they couldnât be touched now, they would die sooner or later. He was too lazy to dirty his own hands, instead looking to Yan Rui, âLetâs go.â
Yan Rui smiled, âAlright, as you wish.â
With that, he proceeded to help him put on his coat and hat. The onlookers had yet to return to their senses even after the two had already left the room and disappeared. However, in a place that Fan Yuan didnât notice, Yan Ruiâs cautious gaze swept over a dark corner. The meaning was clear: Kill with no mercy.
Fan Yuan was hugged by Yan Rui as they headed downstairs. They were thinking of going elsewhere to eat, but just at that moment, they saw the male and female lead coming by. Fan Yuan immediately hid behind Yan Ruiâs tall stature to conceal himself.
Waiting till they left, Yan Rui joked, âIt was a good time for a chance encounter. Why did you hide?â
Fan Yuan glared at Yan Rui angrily. Wasnât it all because he didnât want to be separated from Yan Rui so soon! It was one thing if the man didnât appreciate it, but he was completely indifferent! Fan Yuan said angrily, âIâm more than happy to!â
Despite usually being the one who thought deeply and astutely, Yan Rui couldnât figure out why Fan Yuan wanted to leave so quickly to come to Cangzhou. Only now did he think back on it â perhaps Fan Yuan felt complicated that he still had to idle around for a few more days. Yan Rui took it that he had ticked the little guy off, causing him to throw a fit, so all Yan Rui could do was to gently placate him.
*******************
As days passed, the male and female lead happily fought for justice, while Fan Yuan and Yan Rui lived in a world of their own. Within a few days, the male lead would find out the true identity of the female lead.
Seeing that he couldnât dawdle any longer, Fan Yuan found a chance to meet the male and female lead. The three had not seen each other for a long time, so naturally, they headed over to a restaurant to get a table, refusing to head back till they were drunk.
Fan Yuan was questioned intensely by them to know where he had been the past few days. How could he leave without saying a word? He truly worried them greatly.
Fan Yuan probed, âBrother Gusu didnât tell you?â
Xiao Ziyun replied angrily, âNow that makes me angry, he was seriously injured that day and we found him unconscious in your room. After that, we realised we couldnât find you. Of course, we asked him what happened, but he acted like he had become dumb. When we asked him, he would pretend to be ignorant, and thatâs all he said â I donât know anything!â
Gao Sui poured a cup of tea for her with a smile, chuckling, âYouâre drunk. Have a cup of tea to clear your mind. Brother Gusu must have his own difficulties in saying it out. Letâs listen to what Brother Bai has to say first.â
Fan Yuan was smiling on the surface, but he was actually deliberating in secret. It was really hard to explain himself without any flaws. He sighed softly before speaking as if he was broaching a difficult subject, âActually, Brother Gusu didnât want to say anything because of me. Because the person who hurt him...was my Daddy.â
Gao Sui and Xiao Ziyun were beyond shocked and didnât know how to respond.
Fan Yuan slowly continued, âI actually ran away from home. My Daddy.........doesnât have a very good temper. That doesnât mean he treats me badly, itâs just that he always restricts my freedom and refuses to let me leave his side. What I want is to wander the Jianghu and forge my own path, so I ran away from home for the first time a few months ago. â
After a moment of shock, Xiao Ziyun patted the back of his hand, âBrother Bai, I understand how you feel. I also left the valley alone without Masterâs permission. For oneâs own life and aspirations, sometimes itâs not a bad thing to disobey the rules set in place. If you take that step forward bravely, who knows if there may be a bright future ahead.â
The corners of Fan Yuanâs mouth lifted in a touch of smile, as if he had been comforted greatly from her words. He added, âThat day, my Daddy found the Gusu Manor and wanted to take me away. Brother Gusu wanted to stop him but he got hurt instead, and I was forcefully brought away. The reason why Brother Gusuâs is so unwilling to tell the truth is probably because of me. After all, it was my father who made the move to hurt him, itâs inevitable that the Gusu Family will count this on my head. â
The two finally understood the big picture, and Xiao Ziyun guilty said, âWe misunderstood him, and we also failed to protect you. He must feel worse than anyone else, we were unaware of the truth and just blamed him. We should apologise the next time we meet.â
Fan Yuan was silent for a moment before speaking in a low voice, âIn fact, I am the one who should apologise to him most. Unfortunately, I have no face to face him. If you have a chance to meet him, please pass over a message for me, saying that Bai Muyuan canât face him anymore, itâs better to quickly forget me and find a suitable person to spend your days ahead.â
Gao Sui and Xiao Ziyun were speechless, not knowing what to say. When they were in the Gusu Manor, they noticed all of Gusu Moliangâs conscientious attentions towards Fan Yuan, and they could also feel Fan Yuanâs want to avoid him every single time it happened. In all honesty, they really intended to matchmake the two at the very beginning.
The love-hate relationship between the two men was extremely unexpected. Fan Yuanâs appearance was so alluring that it made people think, âThere definitely needs to be a man who can pamper him, love him and protect him for a lifetimeâ. Incidentally, there was a man like Gusu Moliang who was infatuated and devoted to his love. He was definitely the most suitable pick for Fan Yuan.
What they didnât expect was that one person was infatuated, while the other was unwilling. They could only blame the Heavens for toying with fate, allowing these two men to meet within the vast sea of people.
Fan Yuan noticed that his friends were feeling down because of what he had said, which made him feel quite bad. If he deceived a person like Yan Rui who was a big pervert from inside out, he would only feel a great sense of achievement, but when the deceived was changed to these two fools in front of him, it was like robbing a little kidâs candy! It felt extremely immoral!
Compared to Xiao Ziyunâs sadness, Gao Sui was even more distressed. Seeing the state of the relationship between Gusu Moliang and Fan Yuan, he dared not reveal his feelings even though his heart had already moved for Xiao Ziyun. He was afraid that he would end up in a sorry state like Gusu Moliang. As he got even more frustrated, he downed one cup after the other. In the end, he turned out to be the first one to get drunk though he had the best alcohol tolerance.
Although Xiao Ziyun didnât collapse, she was also dizzy, so there was no hope on her part either. Fortunately, Fan Yuan had his system on hand, so he exchanged for an item to quickly dissolve the wine. Added on with his excellent martial arts, he helped both of them, one hand supporting each as he brought them to the nearest inn without much effort.
After settling the two, Fan Yuan got a room for himself and fell into a deep sleep without even changing his clothes.
Through the blurry haze of sleep, he felt someone taking off his outer robes for him as they wiped the hot wet towel across his body. Because it was too comfortable, he didnât even open his eyes and let the person serve him. At last, he fell into a deep sleep while lying on that familiar warm chest.
What Fan Yuan didnât know was that a big problem would arise right after his sleep. When he opened his eyes the next day, he found that his side was empty. He curved his mouth slightly in a gentle smile. Before he could even stretch and yawn, he heard a loud âAHH!â.
Fan Yuan was certain that he didnât hear it wrongly â it was the voice of the female lead. He hastily got up from the bed and ran over without even wearing his shoes. He splits the door and strides in.
At that moment, he thought of thousands of possibilities, good and bad. He even prepared himself for the worst, but he didnât expect to see this..........
On the bed, the female leadâs hair hung loose as she covered herself with the blanket, her shoulder straps vaguely visible. Meanwhile, the male lead was sitting on the ground blankly, and it was quite obvious that he had been kicked out of the bed by the female lead. It wasnât the lecher as Fan Yuan imagined, neither was it a rapist or even a Jianghu killer, butââthe male lead who looked a mess.
Looking at the male leadâs lifeless and befuddled visage, a sentence suddenly popped up in Fan Yuanâs head. When a man is sober, they are still human, once he is drunk, it is difficult to say the same.
ï¼When I was sleeping, the male and female lead did it after getting drunk?! ï¼
ï¼R18 staged in an inn room, this is the distortion of human nature! Itâs the fall of human morality! ï¼
ï¼Male lead, youâve really gone crazy (well done!) [cold laughter]!ï¼
The Author has Something to Say:
Little Theatre
Male lead (innocent): I really donât know why this happened.......
Female lead (furious): Youâre shameless!
Fan Yuan (reprimanding): You coward!
In a hidden corner, Yan Rui raised the corners of his lips in satisfaction. Things like climbing into a personâs bed, letâs forget about it ð
