Arc 8: Chapter 8
When Lin Yuan woke up, he first noticed that he was still in a warm, familiar embrace. It was his husband, he would never mistake it.
But then all of sudden the warmth disappeared.
Lin Yuan hummed in dissatisfaction and squirmed. He wanted to hug again but nothing worked, the warm embrace didn’t come back.
Lin Yuan cracked open an eye and saw that it was dark all around him. The only hint of light was the ray peeking through a gap in the middle of the curtain.
Every muscle was sore and his butt hurt in particular, moreover he didn’t know where Jin Ran was, Lin Yuan was suddenly overwhelmingly aggrieved and his eyes reddened.
He lay on the bed and bit the pillow, grinding it in frustration with his teeth like a puppy.
Lin Yuan persuaded himself that Jin Ran was a senior in high school with a lot of homework. Last night, they rolled together for so long, so now Jin Ran had to do his homework. That’s why Jin Ran couldn’t accompany him.
Except Jin Ran wasn’t doing his homework.
In truth, Jin Ran had been standing outside the door to the bedroom this whole time.
When he had noticed that Lin Yuan was about to wake up, the teenager hesitated for a few seconds before deciding to let go.
Jin Ran leaned against the cold wall and looked at his hand in a daze. There was no longer any lingering warmth from the other’s skin. He didn’t know how to describe it, but he suddenly felt as if something important was taken away from him, leaving him hollow and incomplete.
If… If Lin Yuan called for him, he would go in and accompany him.
But after waiting and waiting, Jin Ran never heard Lin Yuan’s voice. He felt confused and empty.
Why didn’t Lin Yuan ask for him? That place was obviously swollen and uncomfortable, why didn’t he talk? Did Lin Yuan… not want him?
【Di! Please pay attention host, the villain’s blackening value has risen to 89%.】
Lin Yuan was in the middle of getting a massage from 521. It felt pretty good.
But when 521 heard the system prompt, it jumped down on Lin Yuan’s back even harder: “Senior, what is wrong with your husband again? If you guys have problems, can you at least make the problem clear?!”
Lin Yuan didn’t know what the problem was either, okay? He only woke up ten minutes ago, how could he know what happened to Jin Ran?
Ooh, but 521’s massage felt even better like this.
Fortunately, the blackening value only increased by 1%, not directly soaring to a critical value like last night. Lin Yuan remembered the panic he was in last night and felt like he couldn’t hesitate again. If he didn’t think too much about disturbing Jin Ran and just called him, then Jin Ran wouldn’t have been taken away by Qi Lei.
Enduring his sore body, Lin Yuan was going to get out of bed to find Jin Ran.
Hearing the movement inside, Jin Ran almost ground his teeth. After being tossed by him for so long, what was Lin Yuan moving around for?
Jin Ran walked back into the room with a gloomy face. He quickly prevented Lin Yuan from getting up: “What are you doing?”
Jin Ran’s movements were a little rough. Lin Yuan winced and whimpered: “That hurts…”
Jin Ran inexplicably felt guilty. Instinctively, he wanted to retreat his hand, but he held back. He turned Lin Yuan to lay on his stomach, and then turned on the bedside lamp and lifted the quilt, intending to check the hidden place.
Before Lin Yuan could be happy that Jin Ran had come to him, he was scared by Jin Ran grabbing his butt.
“!!!” Lin Yuan’s eyes widened with incredibility and he quickly reached out to cover it: “Wait, don’t do this! You… let go! Hurry up and let go!”
Now Jin Ran was angry. He slapped the two mounds fiercely, leaving the skin bright red.
“Stop moving! I’m checking if it’s broken.”
Lin Yuan was really stupified. He didn’t know how to react.
This was the first time he had been spanked. It really hurt, but his heart hurt even more.
Lin Yuan lay motionless on the bed and gripped the sheets tightly with both hands.
Seeing the redness and swelling, it had obviously suffered. Jin Ran rubbed it with his fingers and Lin Yuan trembled slightly.
Thinking he had hurt the other, Jin Ran’s voice softened unconsciously: “Does this hurt?”
Lin Yuan was angry, hurt, and wronged, but his husband in this world didn’t seem to have the patience to deal with his grievances.
He glared at Jin Ran with teary eyes: “You… you spanked me…”
Jin Ran avoided Lin Yuan’s gaze but gently massaged the place he hit. He couldn’t help but notice how soft and elastic the meat under his palm felt, like a ripe peach. Remembering some scenes from last night, Jin Ran swallowed thickly. He said a little hoarsely: “It’s because you moved. It’s dangerous, you know? You got **** until you fainted last night.”
Lin Yuan’s ears were dyed crimson. Why did Jin Ran have to speak so bluntly…
Lin Yuan’s voice softened because of shyness and he spoke like a sweet and sticky candy: “I know, I just… I just wanted to see you.”
His round eyes looked at Jin Ran obediently like a small animal: “You slept so late, did you finish your homework?”
Only now did Jin Ran realize that Lin Yuan didn’t call him because he didn’t want to disturb him. When did this little devil become so good?
Jin Ran really couldn't resist Lin Yuan’s goodness. He unknowingly got addicted to Lin Yuan’s warmth and affection. He lay down and hugged Lin Yuan in his arms, pressing their bodies together, and said: “Almost done.”
Actually, he hasn’t written a single word. His mind had been full of Lin Yuan from last night.
Lin Yuan snuggled into Jin Ran’s embrace. The two of them were silent for a while, until Lin Yuan’s fingers touched the burn mark on the other’s arm and whispered: “Jin Ran, if you want to take revenge, you can pour boiling water over me.”
Jin Ran frowned instantly. He wasn’t like Lin Yuan who enjoyed hurting others, he… he didn’t want to do something like that. He was reluctant.
Jin Ran was a little worried that if he didn’t make himself clear, Lin Yuan would go off and pour boiling water over himself. He grabbed Lin Yuan’s fingers and kissed them: “No. You just need to let me **** you as much as I want.”
Jin Ran’s bluntness made Lin Yuan’s toes curl up in shame.
Not getting an answer, Jin Ran raised an eyebrow: “What’s your answer?”
Lin Yuan buried his hot face in Jin Ran’s neck and nodded weakly.
Jin Ran pretended not to see, and deliberately urged: “Answer me. Are you willing?”
Lin Yuan’s voice was as small as a mosquito: “Yes…”
“What are you willing to do? Say it clearly.”
Knowing what Jin Ran wanted to hear, Lin Yuan bit his lip and finally stuttered out: “I’m willing to let you…**** me…”
Jin Ran was finally satisfied and nuzzled into the teenager’s soft, curly hair. The emptiness from before was now gone, and his body was surrounded with warmth.
【Di! Congrats host, the villain’s blackening value has decreased to 85%.】
With his body covered in traces, Lin Yuan definitely couldn’t go back to Lin’s house for the time being. He let his parents know that he was with Jin Ran, and Father and Mother Lin didn’t seem worried at all.
Looking at Lin Yuan, Jin Ran asked: “Have you considered that if we live together, we’ll be found out sooner or later?”
Lin Yuan tilted his head and said normally: “If they find out, they find out. I’ll say I can’t bear to leave you.”
Jin Ran’s eyes deepened. If only he could make it so that Lin Yuan would never leave him.

The next Saturday, Jin Ran finished self-studying and walked out of school. In the distance, he saw Lin Yuan in white clothes waiting at the gate under the setting sun. The other’s amber hair was illuminated by the warm horizon, more beautiful than any scenery he had seen before.
When Lin Yuan saw him, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if the brightest stars were shining just for Jin Ran.
The teenager ran over from the school gate with a bright smile: “I’m here to pick you up.”
Jin Ran’s heartbeat pounded so loudly he felt as if everything except for Lin Yuan didn’t exist anymore.
He didn’t know what to do. He seemed to… like Lin Yuan a little.
