Arc 1: Chapter 7

Lin Yuan cried with tears running down his face, and the corners of his eyes were a light red. The tears around his eyes were half dried and he looked aggrieved and pitiful. 

Seeing Lin Yuan like this, Huo Chen didn’t know what to say. His face was gloomy and at a loss. Finally, he could only drag him to sit on the sofa and find the remote control to turn off the TV. 

Lin Yuan was so scared that it was useless to turn off the TV. The living room had echoed with all kinds of horror sound effects but now it was suddenly silent, and it was equally as scary to him. 

Originally Lin Yuan thought that the villa was big, beautiful, and luxurious, but now there was only one thought in his mind, the villa was so big, there must be more ghosts than other houses. 

The more he thought about it, the worse he felt. Lin Yuan believed that although he couldn’t see it, there might be a ghost looking at him this very second, face to face.

“!!!!”

Lin Yuan suddenly felt a gust of wind coming towards him, like a ghost blowing on his face.

At this moment, he didn’t care about anything else. He instinctively jumped on Huo Chen and trembled all over. He couldn’t wait to directly change back into a fur ball so he could put his entire self into Huo Chen’s embrace. 

Huo Chen reflexively wrapped his arm around Lin Yuan’s waist. But after he reacted, he grabbed Lin Yuan’s arm and tried to pull him away like last time. 

After noticing Huo Chen’s movements, Lin Yuan immediately hugged his neck. 

Huo Chen pulled firmly and couldn’t pull him away, and his gloomy eyebrows held an indescribably stiffness. Lin Yuan wrapped around him like an octopus. His body was too warm, he left an unprecedented temperature everywhere on his cold body. 

“Let go.” Huo Chen said coldly.

Lin Yuan shook his head and didn’t move. 

Huo Chen lowered his head slightly, and his wet bangs fell down, creating a shadow between his deep and cold eyebrows. 

His tone was extremely dangerous and his poisonous fangs were hidden: “Lin Yuan, I told you to let you.”

Lin Yuan heard the coldness in his words and thought that he made Huo Chen angry. He looked up with red eyes and in a crying voice said: “There… there are ghosts, and I’m scared……”

Huo Chen looked around the empty living room. Ghosts? As if, even the movie didn’t have any real ghosts. 

This action was done unconsciously, and after he came to his senses, he felt like he did something stupid. His gloomy face turned worse: “Are you dumb? There are no ghosts.”

Lin Yuan had been to many different worlds with his hosts before, including a supernatural world where ghosts existed. He saw one with his own eyes. 

“There are!” Lin Yuan nodded vigorously and said seriously, “There really are ghosts!”

Seeing that Lin Yuan really believed so, Huo Chen coldly chuckled and said: “I don’t believe it. If you say so, then let me have a look.”

Lin Yuan immediately shook his head like a rattle and buried into Huo Chen’s arms and whispered: “I’m not lying, there really are.”

Huo Chen thought, really a fool. Normal people would be scared of him and try their best to stay away from him. This fool was scared to tears by a crude ghost film and kept drilling into his arms like finding shelter from the wind and rain. 

Lin Yuan probably didn’t know that compared to ghosts, people were more scary. 

For example, him, a madman.

Huo Chen was too lazy to argue with a fool and just let him hug. If he forced him away, he might cry and be noisy again. 

Lin Yuan stayed in Huo Chen’s arms for a long time before he regained a bit of courage and looked up at him. 

The first thing that came to view was Huo Chen’s sexy convex Adam’s apple, excessively pale skin, and slightly prominent blue veins under the skin that intertwined into shallow lines. His thin pale chin was gently raised up, and his neck stretched out a slender and beautiful outline, like a painter’s most carefully drawn brush strokes. 

Lin Yuan stared for a while and thought of what he said to 521 last night. He called nervously, “Huo Chen……”

His voice was clear and his tone was soft, like a small animal chirping.

Huo Chen heard his voice and lowered his head and looked at him with dark eyes: “Hm?”

Lin Yuan sat up from his arms and looked around nervously, like a thief. When he was sure there were only the two of them in the living room, he asked shyly with red ears, “Huo Chen, when will you roll in the sheets with me?”
