Bumped Up a Lump!

Inside the villa, Xu Wang pushed open the door, changed into his house slippers, and couldn't resist flinging himself onto the sofa.

Xu Wang hugged a cartoon goose pillow. "I'm home!"

Pei Yanchuan changed into his slippers and walked into the living room. Hearing Xu Wang's childish voice, he couldn't help smiling fondly.

"What would you like to eat?" Pei Yanchuan approached the sofa.

Xu Wang turned his head and saw Pei Yanchuan's outrageously handsome face. He felt smug. My luck really is amazing. Even transmigrating into a book landed me a man this handsome.

Looking at Xu Wang staring blankly at him, Pei Yanchuan tilted his head slightly.

Shhk! A sword called beauty successfully pierced Xu Wang's heart.

"Ahem..." Xu Wang sat up in a burst of excitement.

Both had underestimated how close they were to each other. The next second, there was a bang.

Chin and head collided violently.

"Ow, ow, ow." Xu Wang felt as though he'd hit a steel plate.

"Are you okay? Let me see." Pei Yanchuan hadn't felt much himself, but hearing Xu Wang cry out in pain, he looked worriedly at his head.

"It hurts so much..." Xu Wang couldn't help clicking his tongue. A bump was pretty much guaranteed.

"Move your hands. Let me see." Pei Yanchuan quickly walked over and sat beside Xu Wang, then gathered him into his arms.

Xu Wang lowered his hands.

Pei Yanchuan reached out with his right hand and gently brushed aside the short hair over Xu Wang's forehead, revealing a red, swollen bump.

"How is it?" Feeling the hand on his head remain still for so long, Xu Wang couldn't help trying to tilt his head up to see what was happening.

"Don't move." Pei Yanchuan's voice was so gentle that Xu Wang stopped moving.

They were very close to each other now, and a faint scent of lychee wine and mint drifted through the air.

The entire living room grew sweet.

Just as Xu Wang couldn't resist moving any longer, a cool breath suddenly brushed over the swollen spot.

"Hoo..."

The sound of Pei Yanchuan gently blowing reached Xu Wang's ears clearly.

Xu Wang's eyes widened.

"It's a little swollen. Sit on the sofa and wait for me." With that, Pei Yanchuan stood and headed into the kitchen.

Watching Pei Yanchuan's tall figure retreat, Xu Wang obediently stayed where he was.

A few minutes later, Pei Yanchuan returned with a clean, dry towel and an ice pack radiating cold.

Pei Yanchuan wrapped the ice pack in the towel, then gently pressed it to Xu Wang's forehead.

"I'll ice it first, then give you a warm compress tomorrow." Pei Yanchuan's movements were very gentle, as though he was afraid of making Xu Wang too cold.

Looking at Pei Yanchuan so close to him, Xu Wang felt his lustful courage stir.

Seizing his chance, Xu Wang kissed Pei Yanchuan.

Pei Yanchuan's right hand froze in midair, and he reached up with his left to lightly touch the corner of his lips.

Pei Yanchuan lowered his head and saw Xu Wang looking thoroughly pleased with himself.

When Xu Wang saw Pei Yanchuan looking at him, he made no attempt to hide, smiling and winking at him.

Pei Yanchuan looked at the softness he had just touched, a dark glint flashing through his eyes.

"Stealing a kiss?" There was unmistakable pleasure in Pei Yanchuan's voice.

"I kissed you out in the open. What? You didn't like it? I'll let you kiss me back, then." Xu Wang raised both arms and willingly looped them around Pei Yanchuan's neck.

"You said it." Without the slightest hesitation, Pei Yanchuan lowered his head and kissed him.

They embraced, the scent of lychee wine and mint around them growing stronger.

Only after five minutes did they let go of each other.

Xu Wang's eyes shone brightly, his arms and legs clinging tightly to Pei Yanchuan.

"Let go."

"No."

They kept fooling around until Xu Wang successfully pinned Pei Yanchuan beneath him.

Xu Wang excitedly clutched Pei Yanchuan's collar with both hands.

Pei Yanchuan's collar fell slightly open, exposing his firm chest.

Xu Wang's hands were ready to move, but just as he was about to succeed,

Pei Yanchuan caught his hands.

"Xiaowang, we haven't eaten yet."

"Then let's have something else to eat." Xu Wang pounced like a hungry goose.

Their breaths tangled together, and once again, pink and blue filled the air.

By the time their battle ended, it was already late at night.

Xu Wang lay against Pei Yanchuan's chest, looking utterly content.

The sofa was small, and Pei Yanchuan held his partner tightly in his arms to keep him from falling off.

Xu Wang's stomach growled in protest, and his face scrunched up.

Pei Yanchuan chuckled. "Hungry?"

"Mm, I want braised pork." Thinking of the soft, tender braised pork, Xu Wang couldn't help swallowing.

"Rest for a while. I'll go cook." Pei Yanchuan settled the person in his arms onto the sofa, tucked a blanket around him, and turned toward the kitchen.

Pei Yanchuan had already had some ingredients delivered to the house the day before.

Pei Yanchuan deftly put on an apron and washed the cookware.

Before long, the aroma of food drifted out of the kitchen.

Xu Wang sat on the sofa, hugging the cartoon goose pillow.

He hadn't noticed earlier because he'd been too absorbed in that handsome face, but now it suddenly struck him: why had they both been hit, yet he was the one with a bump on his head? Meanwhile, Pei Yanchuan's chin was completely fine.

Xu Wang grabbed the cartoon goose in his hands by the neck. Aaargh, that's way too much of a bug!

That night, Xu Wang didn't get the braised pork he'd been longing for.

Out of consideration for Xu Wang's health, Pei Yanchuan had made relatively light dishes, a lavish green feast.

Xu Wang gently poked the greens in his bowl with his chopsticks, muttering under his breath.

Seeing this, Pei Yanchuan sighed. He picked up a bite of food and brought it to Xu Wang's mouth, holding his left hand underneath. "Make do with a little of this for now. I'll make you braised pork tomorrow."

"Really?" Xu Wang looked at Pei Yanchuan skeptically.

"I promise." Pei Yanchuan couldn't help laughing.

"Om nom. Fine, I'll trust you one more time. If you dare lie to me, I'll..." As though something had occurred to him, Xu Wang's lips curved into a smile.

"You'll what?" Pei Yanchuan asked curiously.

"I'll make sure you can't get out of bed tomorrow." Xu Wang raised his head smugly.

Pei Yanchuan raised an eyebrow but said nothing more.
