She called me dirty, shameless, vulgar, and a piece of trash who couldn't control his filthy desires.
Xie Ji opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he couldn't say anything.
That teacher had done more than enough; to Lu Xunji, she was the best teacher and the closest person in the world.
But Lu Xunji's illness is indeed quite frightening; any teacher of the opposite sex would be startled if they knew about it.
But Lu Xunji wasn't wrong either; he was just sick... just a little different.
Xie Ji turned around in Lu Xunji's arms and hugged Lu Xunji's waist tightly. "I'm sorry."
Lu Xunji paused, stopped speaking, looked at Xie Ji's head, and suddenly laughed, "It doesn't matter, no need to apologize."
Xie Ji nuzzled against his chest. "I'm so sorry, Lu Xunji, you're so pitiful. I don't know how to say it, but none of this is your fault, none of you are at fault."
Lu Xunji rubbed his head. "It's not my fault, so why am I the one who was abandoned, abandoned, and disliked?"
Xie Ji opened his mouth, unsure of what to say, so he simply sat up, placed his hands on Lu Xunji's sides, and said earnestly, "I will never give up on you, Lu Xunji, never."
Lu Xunji looked into his misty blue eyes, clear as a spring in the moonlight. "Never?"
Xie Ji nodded emphatically. "I'll stay with you, always."
Lu Xunji chuckled lightly, seemingly not taking Xie Ji's words to heart. "Alright."
Seeing his expression, Xie Ji wrinkled his little nose. "You don't believe me?"
"I believe you." Lu Xunji casually put his arm around his waist, letting him sit on his lower abdomen. "I believe whatever you say, my little darling."
"You just don't believe me!" Xie Ji was so engrossed in this issue that he completely missed Lu Xunji's actions. He sat on Lu Xunji and slapped his chest muscle, saying fiercely, "I'm telling the truth! Don't you dare disbelieve me! I, Xie Ji, am a man of my word!"
Lu Xunji cupped the back of his head. "A promise is a promise?"
Xie Ji nodded solemnly. "Yes!"
"Try it."
Xie Ji: "?"
Xie Ji: "..."
Lu Xunji pressed his neck down, pulling him onto his body, and tilted his head back to kiss him.
Xie Ji: "Hmm..."
After the kiss ended, Xie Ji lay panting on Lu Xunji, his head drooping weakly against his neck as he breathed.
"No, brother, you really are..."
Xie Ji swallowed hard and rubbed his burning lips.
"Kissing eight hundred times in one night, are your lips magnets on, bro?"
Lu Xunji didn't speak, but gently stroked his back with his palm.
Xie Ji caught his breath for a while, then sensed something was wrong. He scrambled off Lu Xunji in a panic, exclaiming in shock, "Damn it, where were you hitting me just now?!"
Lu Xunji pulled the air conditioner blanket next to him over himself. "Yeah, I couldn't resist."
"You you you you you you you--" Xie Ji clutched his butt. "You're too outrageous, bro, I'm not sleeping with you anymore!"
Lu Xunji raised an eyebrow. "So you're planning to sleep in the hallway now?"
Xie Ji: "..."
Damn.
"Then you're not allowed to say 'that' to me again." Xie Ji said through gritted teeth, "I'm telling you, I really am straight!"
"A straight man who becomes stupid after being kissed by another man?"
Xie Ji: "..."
Don't go too far, you perverted madman!!
"I understand, straight men are slightly gay." Lu Xunji patted the spot next to him. "Go to sleep, I won't touch you."
Xie Ji hesitated for a moment, not really wanting to sleep in the corridor, so he could only swallow his pride and say, "Please don't do this to me, brother, I really can't take it anymore."
"Mmm." Lu Xunji beckoned to him. "Come here, let's sleep together."
"Didn't you say you wouldn't touch me?!"
"It's just sleeping while being held, isn't that how we always sleep?" Lu Xunji said, "I didn't take your pants off, what are you afraid of?"
Xie Ji: "Anyone would be scared of you like that!!!"
Lu Xunji lowered his eyes. "You just said you wouldn't give up on me."
"Uh..." Xie Ji choked for a moment. "I... I didn't mean that. It's just that I'll stay with you until your illness is cured, but not in the sense of sleeping with you!"
Lu Xunji lowered the corners of his mouth. "Whatever. Lots of people say that to me. I'm used to it."
Xie Ji: "..."
What's with this inexplicable feeling of guilt?
Xie Ji hesitated for a moment, then slowly climbed into bed and lay down next to Lu Xunji: "Then you can hug me... Let's make it clear, you can only hug me, okay?"
Lu Xunji looked at him, her deep purple eyes filled with vulnerability and pitifulness.
"No need, I won't force you."
Xie Ji: "I didn't force you..."
Lu Xunji turned his face away from Xie Ji: "Go to sleep, I won't touch you."
"You..." Xie Ji sat behind him, scratching his head anxiously, "Don't be sad, I didn't mean it that way, I didn't dislike you, oh dear, don't be angry, I'll hug you, turn around."
Lu Xunji didn't move, his head nestled in the soft pillow.
Xie Ji suddenly hugged him from behind, pressing his forehead against his broad back and whispering, "You're really hard to coax."
Lu Xunji paused for a moment, then remained silent.
"Hurry, hold me, please."
"..."
Lu Xunji turned around, his purplish-red eyes looking at Xie Ji, and pulled him into his arms.
"Yes, thank you."
Xie Ji: "..."
You're quite polite.
"You're quite good at comforting people."
Xie Ji nestled in Lu Xunji's arms and mumbled, "... Oh, thank you."
Lu Xunji chuckled softly, pulled Xie Ji closer to him, and closed his eyes.
"If I accidentally step on your hand in the middle of the night, don't blame me," Xie Ji said. "You know I'm a terrible sleeper."
"Yes, it's not your fault, little one."
Xie Ji scratched his burning ear tips, unsure of what to say. The drowsiness that followed his meal washed over him again, and he quickly fell asleep.
The next morning, Ji Shi was the first to open the door and found that Lu Xunji was not there.
This kid always wakes up early; he should be running or practicing martial arts in the villa by this time. He's still not up. Could it be that he did something tiring last night...?
Ever since Xie Ji slept in his room, Ji Shi has been on high alert every day.
He hadn't even brushed his teeth when he ran quickly to Lu Xunji's room and banged on the door.
" Lu Xunji! Open the door! I know you're in there! Don't hide inside and refuse to open the door..."
The next moment, he heard Xie Ji's voice breaking down through the door.
You contradicted me again!!!
