The Assassin's Enemy Lover
178 Trending on Starnet
Just thinking of that sensual kiss last night his lower half would grow hot. He even had to stroke himself in the shower thinking of it. It was very stimulating.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Zi Han noticed that Yi Chen was out of it but he didnât say anything. While lying there he suddenly noticed he was shirtless thus he asked, âWhat kind of fucked up things did I get up to last night?â
Yi Chen chuckled as he got up his expression like that saying, âyou donât want to know.â
Zi Han sat up and stared at him with a puzzled expression. As soon as his figure disappeared into the walk in closet Zi Han got out of bed and followed him.
He stood behind Yi Chen who was putting on a grey t-shirt with his back to him. With his arms crossed on his chest, he asked, âYou arenât going to tell me?â
Yi Chenâs fingers that were about to pull down the hem of the t-shirt paused for a moment before he continued to get dressed.
With slight mischief in his eyes, he turned around and faced Zi Han their closeness apparent. Yi Chen didnât stop moving forward forcing Zi Han to take a step back.
In two to three steps Zi Han felt a hard surface behind him. Trapped with nowhere else to go, he said, âWhat are you trying to do?â their gazes locked together.
Yi Chen raised his hand with slight hesitation. His fingers moved towards Zi Hanâs ears like he was about to touch him.
.....
Zi Han felt his heart palpitating for some reason. This had never happened before. He had touched Yi Chen a dozen times before and vice versa but his heart remained calm each time.
But now Yi Chen hadnât touched him yet and he was already feeling a sense of unease. He subconsciously dodged and Yi Chenâs eyes darkened.
His fingers changed trajectory and he grabbed a pair of pants from behind Zi Han. âSomethings are best remembered by oneself otherwise if I tell you about it you wonât believe me,â he said before taking a few steps back.
Zi Han wanted to say something but when he saw Yi Chen reach for the bath towel wrapped around his waist he shut his mouth and turned to leave.
With his back towards Yi Chen, he heard him say, âI prepared a set of toiletries for you. Itâs everything green in the bathroom.â
Zi Han turned his head back and unexpectedly met Yi Chenâs gaze. It seemed he had been looking at him this entire time.
Zi Han flinched as he hastily looked away. As soon as he stepped out of the closet he scratched his head a little vexed. He couldnât understand what the fuck was wrong with him today.
He absentmindedly stepped into the shower and as the warm water touched his skin he felt a great sense of relief wash over him.
He closed his eyes while pushing his hair back. He tried to recall what happened last night but no matter how hard he thought it through nothing came up.
Meanwhile, Yi Chen who had been avoiding his light brain suddenly unlocked it while instructing the housekeeping robot to make blueberry oatmeal.
The first message he saw was from his father asking him where he was but as he
scrolled down the series of messages became angrier and the tone was that of reprimand.
He was still trying to make sense of everything when Li Ran called him. He accepted the video call while taking out some hangover drink from the fridge.
âHey. Did you check Starnet? Last nightâs incident was trending but donât worry. I took it all down and changed the narrative,â said Li Ran with his feet up on his desk his face looking especially horrible like he was having a massive hangover.
Yi Chen didnât understand what incident he was talking about thus he asked, âWhat incident?â
Li Ran rubbed his eyes while yawning. He ruffled his hair and said, âThe pool incident last night. I thought your old man would have scolded you already.â
Yi Chen looked at the amount of missed calls and messages on his light brain and suddenly had a headache. âThanks, I didnât even notic-,â he said only for a shirtless Zi Han to walk downstairs. His body was steaming faintly and his skin was a little pink from the hot shower.
He looked like a half-cooked lobster ready to be eaten. He was like a tasty treat parading itself in front of him. Hypnotized, Yi Chen unconsciously twisted the cap open and handed him the hangover drink.
âThanks,â said Zi Han while standing beside him. He was about to ask where his clothes went when Li Ran exclaimed,
âOh shit!! Why are you....â
Before he could even finish the video call was cut and the kitchen fell into silence.
Yi Chen watched Zi Han guzzle down the drink. He subconsciously took a step forward and his fingers touched the pendants dangling on his chest and whispered, âYour nipples are hard.â
Zi Han, â.....â
Zi Han choked on the drink and began to cough while creating some distance between them. As he wiped his lips with the back of his hand he glanced at his nipples which were as flat as they can be.
âSheesh, when did you become a fuckin pervert?â said Zi Han with slight annoyance.
âI have always been one just only for you,â he said with a slight quirk at the corner of his lips.
Zi Han, â...â
âAish.... why do my cheeks feel hot? Itâs probably from the shower,â he dazedly thought while rubbing them.
âYour clothes are washed and dry. I put them on the bed. Now hurry up and change so we can have some breakfast,â said Yi Chen while taking out some bananas and blueberries.
Zi Han just shook his head as he walked up the stairs. Sadly he missed the mischievous grin on Yi Chenâs face that grew bigger by the minute. If Zi Han had known trouble was coming he might have cherished this moment more.
