Jiang Chiyan froze.
Even after Xiao Cheng pulled him into the elevator, he still hadn't come to his senses.
His mind was blank.
His heart was pounding.
There were people in the elevator. Afraid someone in the entertainment industry would photograph them and affect Xiao Cheng's career, Jiang Chiyan let go of Xiao Cheng's hand and pushed him away.
But Xiao Cheng didn't let go.
He spread his fingers and interlaced them with Jiang Chiyan's.
Their hands clasped tightly together.
Their hearts drew tightly together.
As though he had guessed what Jiang Chiyan was thinking, Xiao Cheng said in an extremely hoarse voice, "If we're photographed, we'll go public. Having to hide a relationship would be unfair to you."
A relationship...
All the blood in Jiang Chiyan's body rushed to his head.
After they entered the suite.
Before they even turned on the lights, Jiang Chiyan pushed Xiao Cheng against the door and demanded urgently, "Xiao Cheng, say what you just said in the elevator again."
"What?" Xiao Cheng deliberately played dumb.
"Xiao Cheng!!" Jiang Chiyan's expression darkened.
Xiao Cheng stroked Jiang Chiyan's back again and again and said, "Date me or get back together with me-pick one."
Jiang Chiyan suddenly smiled.
It was a happy smile that came from the bottom of his heart.
He leaned down and kissed Xiao Cheng hard on the lips.
It wasn't a fleeting taste like their first kiss.
This deep kiss almost made Best Actor Xiao, whose lung capacity was over 5,000, black out.
In the darkness, their mingling breaths were intensely intimate.
When the kiss ended.
Jiang Chiyan wiped the moisture from the corner of Xiao Cheng's mouth with his fingertip and smiled. "My little boyfriend?"
His low voice made Xiao Cheng curl his fingertips.
The smile on Jiang Chiyan's lips deepened. "It's just a kiss. What are you so shy about?"
He slipped his hand inside Xiao Cheng's shirt, pressing his palm over Xiao Cheng's heart.
"Mm, your heart's beating so fast, too. Are you nervous?"
Embarrassment turning to anger, Xiao Cheng lifted his foot to kick Jiang Chiyan.
He hadn't even noticed it himself.
How unrestrained he was in front of Jiang Chiyan.
Jiang Chiyan caught Xiao Cheng's pale ankle.
Then.
He wrapped Xiao Cheng's leg around his own waist.
"Best Actor Xiao, where's the courage you had when you asked the front desk about a bathtub for two and ordered roses?"
"..."
"Where's the courage you had when you hid all those handcuffs, shackles, and chains in your bedside table, wanting to imprison me?"
"..."
Xiao Cheng went rigid, too embarrassed to look Jiang Chiyan in the eyes.
"You... you knew?"
He was afraid Jiang Chiyan would think he was a pervert, would find him disgusting.
Jiang Chiyan pinched his chin and kissed him hard again.
Then he took two pairs of handcuffs from his pocket and put them in Xiao Cheng's hands.
The inner metal surfaces of the handcuffs were all engraved with Louis XIV rose patterns.
Alluring...
It was a beauty taken to the extreme.
Xiao Cheng looked at him in surprise.
Jiang Chiyan held both wrists out to Xiao Cheng. "Cuff me."
He wanted to give Xiao Cheng a sense of security.
Whatever Xiao Cheng wanted to do, he would gladly go along with it.
Simply because he was Xiao Cheng.
Jiang Chiyan was someone who liked freedom and disliked restraint.
But if he was with Xiao Cheng.
Being imprisoned wouldn't be so bad.
It even seemed rather thrilling.
An unusual sense of anticipation rose in Jiang Chiyan's heart.
"You..."
"Don't want to? Then I'm leaving." Jiang Chiyan took a step back.
He tugged at his wrinkled tie and walked around Xiao Cheng toward the door.
He walked out without the slightest hesitation.
Just as resolutely as he had six years ago.
Panic flashed in Xiao Cheng's eyes.
He instinctively seized Jiang Chiyan's wrist, took control, and shoved him toward the bed.
Jiang Chiyan curled his lips and, "losing his footing," let himself fall back onto it.
He even pulled his tie loose and undid the top two buttons of his shirt.
His collarbones were partly visible at the neckline of his white shirt.
Jiang Chiyan narrowed his eyes at Xiao Cheng, the way he licked the corner of his mouth exuding a suffocating masculine charm.
Xiao Cheng swallowed, walked over, and slowly bent down.
Then he caught both of Jiang Chiyan's slender, bony wrists in one hand.
Click-
Jiang Chiyan's wrists were cuffed together.
Then.
Xiao Cheng used the other pair of handcuffs to secure Jiang Chiyan's wrists to the bedpost.
Xiao Cheng's pitch-black eyes were so deep their depths were impossible to see.
Pressing down on Jiang Chiyan's shoulders, he looked down at him and asked, "Do you like it?"
Xiao Cheng at that moment.
Had shed his usual gentleness and modesty.
His eyes were filled with sickness and obsession.
Jiang Chiyan stretched lazily, yawning as though he hadn't fully woken up. "That's it?"
"Best Actor Xiao, keep going."
Xiao Cheng reached out and pinned Jiang Chiyan's ankle down.
With his other hand, he took a silver ankle cuff from his pocket.
"May I?" he asked Jiang Chiyan.
His voice was abnormally low and hoarse.
