The midday sunlight spilled into the room through the sheer curtains, working hard to wake the sleeping figure.
Ye Yizhou's closed eyelids twitched, but he still did not open his eyes. He only raised a hand to rub his temples, which ached slightly from his hangover.
With just that slight movement, Ye Yizhou's brows drew tight. He reached his other hand behind him to rub his lower back, which felt ready to snap, and cursed under his breath, "Animal."
Ye Yizhou opened his eyes to find the man lying opposite him, holding him in his arms and sleeping soundly. Irritated, he lifted a leg and kicked him in the leg.
Kicked awake, Yan Qingdu frowned and opened his bleary eyes, meeting Ye Yizhou's proud, pretty face.
The corners of Yan Qingdu's mouth rose involuntarily. Unable to resist, he leaned over and kissed his cheek, his gentle voice husky with sleep. "What's wrong, honey?"
Ye Yizhou did not answer his question. He merely rolled his eyes to demonstrate his current mood.
Yan Qingdu tried to lean in again, but Ye Yizhou planted a hand against his chest and snapped, "Get lost."
Ye Yizhou's rejection only made Yan Qingdu more enthusiastic about snuggling up to him. He could not even be pushed away.
"Let me rub it for you, okay?"
As he spoke, Yan Qingdu's warm, large hand settled on Ye Yizhou's slender waist.
"No. You'd do best not to touch me at all!"
Ye Yizhou shot Yan Qingdu an irritated glare.
"That won't do. If I clung to someone else instead of my husband, then we'd really have a big problem."
Yan Qingdu pulled Ye Yizhou into his arms. The more proud and untouchable Ye Yizhou acted, the more he adored him.
They fooled around in bed for a while longer
