Xie Ji then realized what was happening, pursed his lips, and looked up at Lu Xunji's chin.
For some reason, Lu Xunji's words came to mind. "Are you afraid he'll find out you enjoyed being kissed by me?"
A sudden wave of shame washed over me.
How arrogant!
Lu Xunji is so cocky.
Erotic madness.
He silently turned his face away, burying his face in Lu Xunji's arms, revealing only the tip of his bright red ear.
Xie Ji ate a big bowl of noodles and was very full. He lay in bed feeling bloated and couldn't fall asleep for a while.
Lu Xunji held him in his arms, gently rubbing his stomach, his warm breath close to his ear. "Can't sleep? Want to chat?"
Xie Ji breathed through his open mouth.
His lips were burning hot, so he tried to cool them down by breathing in cool air through his mouth. Only when he heard Lu Xunji's voice did he slowly say, "No, I don't want to talk."
"Why?" Lu Xunji used his other hand to lift his golden hair and brought it to his nose to smell it.
Xie Ji: "... Let's talk about something else."
It's one thing to bully him a little, but how come he has a combo attack?!
Lu Xunji hugged him, sighed, and said gently, "Well, what do you want to do?"
Xie Ji squinted and thought for a moment. Lu Xunji gently rubbed his stomach, which felt warm and comfortable. The bloating sensation subsided considerably, and drowsiness slowly crept over him.
"Well... tell me how you've spent the last ten years or so?"
Xie Ji spoke up, "Um, you... no, are my parents good to you?"
Lu Xunji paused for a moment, then suddenly said, "I don't want to talk about this."
"Oh, I'm sorry." Xie Ji Qing some composure and realized that he had indeed been a bit offensive.
If his parents could switch the two children back then, how good could they possibly be to Lu Xunji?
He just wanted to know a little bit about how Lu Xunji was doing... He must be having a really bad time, otherwise he wouldn't have disliked him so much in the first place, with a minimum -200 points in his favorability rating.
Lu Xunji pressed close to him and suddenly said, "I want to sleep with you."
Xie Ji: "..."
That's enough, really enough.
Don't force me to slap you when you're at your most comfortable.
Lu Xunji chuckled softly and said, "Not good."
"What?" Xie Ji didn't react.
"I'm not doing well; they—they're not very nice to me."
Xie Ji: "..."
How did they smoothly transition into the conversation?
"As far back as I can remember, I had to get up at four in the morning every day to finish all the chores around the house, make breakfast, and then feed the cows."
"Hmm... all of this has to be finished before six o'clock, because I need to walk five kilometers of mountain road to the school in town."
Lu Xunji squinted, seemingly recalling. "They didn't really want me to go to school, but my teacher kept paying for my tuition, so I always got excellent grades, proving to everyone that I deserved it."
Xie Ji felt a little sorry for him, so she gently stroked his hand and scratched it soothingly. "Well, this teacher is pretty good. Of course, you're great too."
"Hmm," Lu Xunji continued, "But I scared her."
Xie Ji moved his head. "Huh?"
"After finishing elementary school, I entered the best middle school in the city with pretty good grades. Even though the school had waived all my tuition and fees, they still wouldn't let me go to school." Lu Xunji's hand slowly moved down Xie Ji's stomach, circling around his waist.
