Lu Zhi didn’t know his brother had misunderstood.
As soon as the video call ended, Shen Qi appeared like a ghost, startling Lu Zhi so much that the water cup slipped from his hand. Fortunately, Shen Qi caught it, his other hand following to cup Lu Zhi’s waist. “What are you daydreaming about?”
Lu Zhi rolled his eyes, took the cup back from Shen Qi, and went to refill it with warm water. “Where are my clothes?”
“Ah~ I was wondering why the clothes you’re wearing look so familiar. Turns out they’re mine.” Shen Qi’s impish, surprised tone made Lu Zhi feel as though he had deliberately worn his clothes.
Lu Zhi’s earlobes turned red, and he retorted in embarrassment, “I was showering, and there were no clothes in the room. Was I supposed to wander around naked? I’m not some perverted exhibitionist!”
The latter part was a thinly veiled jab.
“Just say it directly if you want to see me naked, darling. No need to beat around the bush,” Shen Qi said, slowly unbuttoning two buttons on his shirt with a flirtatious and ambiguous attitude. “I’ll let you see. No, not just see, you can touch me however you want.”
Lu Zhi: ???
Lu Zhi: !!!
“Wh-what are you doing?” Lu Zhi stumbled back three steps, one hand cupped to his burning red cheeks, the other clutching his collar, his dark, bright eyes wide with panic. “Don’t be a pervert!”
Shen Qi strode over, hoisted Lu Zhi up, and said, “How can this be called being a pervert? It’s called foreplay.”
Lu Zhi came to his senses, instinctively hugging Shen Qi in fright, screaming as he struggled, “Shen Qi? What are you doing? Put me down!”
Shen Qi: “Alright, I’ll put you down right now.”
Just as Lu Zhi relaxed, Shen Qi abruptly tossed him onto the bed. In a daze, before he could get up, Shen Qi pinned him down. Lu Zhi flailed like a turtle, his face flushed with suppressed exasperation. “Shen Qi, get off me!”
Shen Qi had only intended to tease him, but seeing Lu Zhi’s flushed face and evasive eyes, he couldn’t help but continue. He held Lu Zhi firmly against the bed, his hand controlling the pressure on the back of his neck, while the other slid up under the hem of his shirt, reaching Lu Zhi’s slender, firm waist. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Lu Zhi jolted in surprise. His waist tensed, and he recoiled as if spasming. The warmth from Shen Qi’s touch made his limbs go soft. He yelled angrily, “Shen Qi, if you keep this up, I’m going to get angry… Mmph… It tickles, stop touching me!”
Suddenly, Lu Zhi’s body stiffened.
Shen Qi, who had been teasing Lu Zhi’s body, stopped. He lowered his head, leaning close to Lu Zhi’s ear, his voice a low, ambiguous murmur as he coaxed, “What to do? Need some help?”
Lu Zhi’s face was so red it looked like it could drip blood. His breathing deepened, and he gritted his teeth, “No! Get off me!”
Shen Qi gazed at Lu Zhi’s flushed profile for a long moment before releasing him and rolling over to lie flat on the bed.
Lu Zhi scrambled off the bed with a whoosh and rushed into the bathroom, yelling, “Shen Qi, you bastard!”
Shen Qi rested his forehead on one hand. His silvery-gray eyes had somehow transformed into golden-ringed pupils. The noble irises revealed his true desire. He chuckled low, “I haven’t done the more bastardly things yet…”
Shen Qi slowly closed his eyes, listening to the sound of dripping water in the bathroom mingled with the agitated sounds of boiling hot water. Lu Zhi’s disordered breathing, escaping his lips, continued to tease and stir Shen Qi’s rationality.
After an unknown amount of time, the sound of rushing water came from the bathroom. The bathroom door opened, and Lu Zhi peeked out like a startled small animal, cautiously and sneakily. Then, thinking he was being too timid, he coughed and walked out of the bathroom as if nothing had happened.
As soon as he approached the bed, Lu Zhi stopped, his gaze drifting to the area below his waist. Those who understood, understood the silent three seconds. He inexplicably felt a dry throat and turned away awkwardly, “I’m done. The bathroom is yours.”
But Shen Qi didn’t move. He opened his eyes, his emotions having already calmed, his pupils returning to their silvery-gray hue. He beckoned Lu Zhi over.
Lu Zhi hesitated, then slowly walked closer, “What?”
Shen Qi reached out, “Give me a hand.”
Lu Zhi, however, crossed his arms and stayed put, his gaze lingering on the ‘danger zone’ of Shen Qi’s body. “I won’t. I’m afraid you’ll play more tricks.”
Hearing this, Shen Qi’s chest vibrated, and a smile escaped his lips. He had actually learned to be spoiled. “If you don’t pull me up, I won’t get up. There’s only an hour left until the monthly exams, so we might as well cancel them.”
Lu Zhi zipped over, grabbed Shen Qi’s hand, and pulled him up from the bed. He lectured, “Shen Qi, you are a mature deity. How can you throw a tantrum like a child? There’s still some time, why don’t you go to the bathroom and take care of it first?”
This time, Shen Qi didn’t take the opportunity to continue pestering. He placed a hand on Lu Zhi’s shoulder and leaned down, saying, “Darling, believe me, an hour isn’t enough.”
With that, he walked into the bathroom.
Lu Zhi, realizing what he meant, angrily cursed, “Shen Qi, are you implying I’m fast?”
A scholar can be killed but not insulted. How could a man be called fast!
He… he clearly took quite a long time too.
After being angry for a while, Lu Zhi went back to rummage through Shen Qi’s closet. He found a black hoodie tucked away in a corner, its packaging still intact. Intrigued, he exclaimed, “Isn’t this Shen Qi’s favorite? Did Principal Shen buy it?”
The size was just right for Lu Zhi. It fit perfectly, although the pink piglet on the chest looked a bit childish. But having suitable clothes was better than wearing Shen Qi’s long robes.
He wondered if there were any suitable pants.
Thinking this, Lu Zhi continued to search at the bottom of Shen Qi’s closet.
Shen Qi emerged from his cold shower to see Lu Zhi’s pert, rounded buttocks disappearing into the closet, rummaging through drawers and cabinets like a little mouse.
“Found it.” Lu Zhi happily pulled out a pair of blue jeans. He turned and saw Shen Qi standing behind him, arms crossed, staring intently at him. Feeling guilty, Lu Zhi shoved all the clothes on the floor back into the bottom of the cabinet. “Um, you have quite a lot of clothes, haha…”
Shen Qi glanced at the jeans in his hand and said, “These clothes were all bought for me by Shen Lu. The tags haven’t even been removed.”
Lu Zhi: “Let alone the tags, the packaging bags aren’t even opened! Move aside.” He slipped into the bathroom to change. The waistband was a little wide, but it wasn’t a problem.
He wasn’t sure if it was a psychological effect, but Lu Zhi felt that the bathroom was warmer than the bedroom, and there was a faint scent of musk…
Lu Zhi quickly patted his face with his hands to cool down. He stuffed the clothes he had changed out of into the washing machine by the bathroom door and asked, “Shen Qi, you didn’t start wearing suits when you were little, did you?”
Shen Qi, who had also changed, glanced at him and replied, “Yes.”
Lu Zhi imagined Shen Qi wearing a suit when he was little, with his cool, aloof little face. He must have been very cute. He wondered if Principal Shen had any photos.
Shen Qi lifted a finger and stroked Lu Zhi’s cheek. “What are you smiling about with such a… lewd expression?”
Lu Zhi unceremoniously swatted his hand away. “What do you mean, smiling lewdly? Can’t you speak properly? Let’s go.”
He was starting to doubt if he himself was a pervert.
