Yu Nian felt as though he had been on a roller coaster, his heart tossed high into the air before plummeting back down in an instant. His hurt and anger vanished all at once.
He let out a long sigh of relief, feeling both embarrassed and puzzled. "What are you doing, sneaking off to the study to look at my photos?"
Qin Yuheng reached out and pulled him into his arms, nuzzling into the crook of his shoulder. "I'm sorry."
"What's wrong?" Yu Nian was baffled, then looked a little startled. "Don't tell me you've fallen in love with my photos?"
He knew some people had object fetishes, but he hadn't expected Qin Yuheng to be one of them.
Had Qin Yuheng suddenly grown cold toward him because he'd realized he no longer liked living people?
Qin Yuheng said, "...No."
Sensing his low spirits, Yu Nian reached up to stroke his face. "What's wrong?"
Qin Yuheng's voice was very quiet. "Does Baby think I'm too old?"
"Of course not." Yu Nian leaned closer to inspect his face. "You're still very handsome."
He blew softly into his ear, his gaze seductive. "And very vigorous, too."
Caught off guard by his teasing, Qin Yuheng fell silent for a moment.
Yu Nian chuckled. "All right, I'll stop teasing you."
"If I really thought you were too old, I wouldn't be dating you." He shifted around and straddled him, facing him. "Tell me honestly, why did you suddenly start thinking that?"
"I was afraid you'd find me boring."
Yu Nian sensed he hadn't said everything. He went over everything that had happened that afternoon and seemed to find the source of the problem. "Were you upset because I was having so much fun with Xie Zhou?"
Qin Yuheng said, "No."
Yu Nian pressed him.
