The Stars In Your Eyes - Chapter 209

Jian Kang Lu was grateful for his car using an electric key. As long as he put the key near the car, the lock automatically opened with his touch. He put his kitten down when he opened the door and put his kitten on the front passenger seat.

Jian Kang Lu laid the passenger’s seat down to let his kitten sit in a more comfortable position. He turns on the heater to warm up his kitten, then reaches wet tissue from the back seat, wiping his kitten’s face and neck.

It was a lie if he didn’t say he was not sweating to carry his kitten to the car, but he was not willing to let other people hold his kitten in this state.

Once reached their bedroom, Jian Kang Lu swiped his wet forehead. He changed his clothes and then stripped his kitten naked. After that he goes to the bathroom and brings hot water to wipe his kitten clean. Once done, he wrapped his kitten tight on his pajama and quilt, then laid his tired body, sleeping while hugging his kitten tight.

In the next morning, Jian Kang Lu sluggishly wakes up and makes coffee for himself.. His kitten is still sleeping. He ordered light porridge and seaweed soup. When the food was delivered, he checked on his kitten. It’s already 8 o’clock in the morning.

Bai Yutang was awakened by Jian Kang Lu’s soft voice, light kisses rained on his face. He frowned, his head was so heavy he suspected it was not his own head. He opened his eyes slowly, and his stomach reacted with the light shone by the sun from their window.

“Are you dizzy? Can you sit up, baby?” Jian Kang Lu asked. He already prepared chamomile tea with a little bit of honey stirred inside. He knew very well what it feels like to have a huge hangover.

Bai Yutang sat with his lover’s help, then sipped the warm liquid given by his lover. His stomach reacted once again. Want to throw the foreign liquid entering his mouth. But he swallows it, only daring to sip a little bit each time.

“I want to puke, gege..” Bai Yutang said pitifully. He can’t even open his eyes, the world still spinning around when he sees the light.

“It’s only the after effect. Don’t sleep again. Just sit and lay back here. Drink the tea a little. You need to rehydrate your body.” Jian Kang Lu stressed out to see his kitten like this. If possible, he want to transfer the torture feeling his kitten felt into himself.

Bai Yutang followed his lover’s advice. His lover also brings some oil to rub his stomach. The lavender oil scent was flying through his nose and calmed his sensitive nerves a little bit.

“How did I get home last night, gege?” Bai Yutang’s voice is so small. He was afraid his lover was mad at him. He didn’t remember what happened last night. Last thing he remembers is that only Xiang Cai invited him to dance on the first floor with some girls, but he rejected it because he couldn’t walk. Even just speaking already makes him want to puke again. Then one of the leaders toast to him again, which led to him running to the toilet after that.

“Your colleague, Xiang Cai, calls me when I want to pick you up. Let’s treat him to dinner some other time.” Jian Kang Lu said.

Half an hour later Jian Kang Lu spoon fed his kitten. Bit by bit. Of course Bai Yutang can’t finish the porridge, let Jian Kang Lu finish it himself.

“Wait for 30 minutes then drink the medicine. After that you can sleep again.” Jian Kang Lu rubbed his kitten’s stomach and forehead.

“I want to bathe, gege.. Yesterday.. Yesterday I puked on the toilet..” It really is not hygienic to puke and hug the toilet tightly.. If he was not dead drunk, how could he do that?

“I’ll prepare the water first, okay? Wait here.” Jian Kang Lu then goes to the bathroom. Luckily they already installed a bathtub here.

Bai Yutang sighed, arranged his breath like his lover taught him. Take a deep breath slowly, hold it, then release it slowly. It really calms his overactive gaster to a several degree. At least it helps to suppress the acidic taste in the back of his throat.

After filling his stomach, taking a nice hot bath, then drinking his medicine, Bai Yutang felt his body slowly felt like his own. His head was still throbbing hard, so he just spent the rest of his morning lying down and cursing all the cocktails sent to him last night.

While laying down, suddenly Bai Yutang missed his father. Bai Haoran used to entertain his clients and officials. He also often drinks to entertain them until wasted. Bai Yutang just did it once and he already felt like he’s on the brink of death.

Bai Yutang called his mom, and chatted for a little bit. Promised her he will go back on the next Chinese New Year.

Bai Yutang only felt better after dinner. Luckily Christmas is a holiday in C company, for some companies do not regard this day as a holiday for their employees. Bai Yutang didn’t know how people survive going to the office after getting drunk the night before.

He then guiltily looks at his lover, then hugs him tight while his lover insists on washing their dishes.

“Mmm? Just sit, baby. I won’t break the plate.” Jian Kang Lu mistook his kitten’s hug for affection.

Actually Bai Yutang hugged Jian Kang Lu because he remembered when his lover went back home dead drunk last time, he actually left his lover and broke up with him. What kind of boyfriend was he at that time?? While now his lover took care of him the whole day, pampered him like a fragile princess.

“I’m so lucky to have you, gege..” Bai Yutang’s voice, muffled, from pressing his face on his lover’s broad back.

“Then I should wash our dishes everyday so you could hug me like this at least twice a day.” Jian Kang Lu teases his kitten.

The next day, Bai Yutang went to the office. He fully recovered, his body felt a hundred times lighter compared to yesterday.

As usual, he arrived at the company early. A girl from client management greeted him. “Are you already okay? No headache?” She said with sympathy.

“Morning. Yes, I’m already getting better. I’m sorry to let everyone see my sorry state and leave early.” Bai Yutang apologised. He was a new employee and already passed out on his first company dinner.

“Ah, that’s okay. It happened often. The important thing is you’re good now. No need to be polite. At least we could see your boyfriend.”

The other girl arrived and joined the conversation. “Your boyfriend is so handsome!” She raised both of her thumb to him.

“Where do you find a boyfriend like that? Does he have other single friends? Introduce us!”

Xiang Cai also arrived, “Or single female friend! I don’t mind getting an older girlfriend. I heard older girlfriend will pamper her boyfriend more.”

“Dream on! Older girlfriend will choose a handsome younger man with six pack abs!”

Bai Yutang’s face is a little bit red. He actually didn’t know how his lover picked him up last night. He thought Xiang Cai brought him down and Jian Kang Lu took him. But.. Looking at the others also joining this conversation, it seems.. Why does it seem that everyone saw his lover? It couldn’t be they all coming down to say goodbye to him, right?

If.. If his lover went upstairs and took him.. Oh My God, does it mean all his bosses also saw his lover pick him up??

Bai Yutang truly didn’t know where to put his face right now. On the other hand, he was also a little bit happy to hear everyone praise his lover. At least, it was better compared to everyone spreading gossip behind his back that he had a bald and old sugar daddy.

“Introduce some to us, Bai Yutang! I heard your boyfriend is a doctor, right? I want to have a doctor as a boyfriend too!”

“All of my boyfriend’s friends are already married. But some of his residents are still single. Let me promote my beautiful colleagues when I meet them.” Bai Yutang smiled. It’s good to feel accepted. He also remembered some of his lover’s residents also asked his help to be a matchmaker.

One guy from the project management passed by and joined them too. “Your boyfriend is a doctor?? Really???”

Bai Yutang nodded. “He’s a nephrologist in B hospital.”

Hearing that, the guys want to throw Jian Kang Lu to the deepest pit. What kind of human is that? Face, body and brain, he has them all. Damn it. Luckily he’s a gay. God is fair. If that kind of guy is straight, doesn’t it make them look like a bunch of bald quail chickens?

“So young and yet all his friends are already married? Not even one left any for us?” The girl commented.

“How old is your boyfriend?” Xiang Cai asked.

“He just turned 41 this year.” Bai Yutang answered while inputting his password to his computer.

Suddenly all of them who were still busy chatting silenced.

41???? Do they hear it wrong? It should be 31, right???

Xiang Cai swallowed, “Forty one?”

Bai Yutang nodded. He turned to his chair, “I want to get some coffee from the pantry, does anyone want to get some too?”

Two of them stand up and they go to the pantry together. Suddenly they talk again.

“41? What the fuck! I didn’t hear it wrong, right?”

“What kind of guy at that age has better skin than me?”

“Ask Bai Yutang, maybe they have their own skin care? From his dermatologist friend?”

“I want to clarify, I’m not the only one who thought Bai Yutang’s boyfriend is young and very handsome, right?”

“Well, make it two with me. I also thought he was the most handsome man I ever saw in my pitiful life.”

“Ah.. I thought I was drunk and the room was dark, so I was hallucinating.”

That’s why when Bai Yutang came holding a cup of hot black coffee, he was forced to show his photo with Jian Kang Lu. Bai Yutang was confused, but he thought he needed to make a good impression and had to be grateful his colleagues didn’t despise him for being a cutsleeve. Thus he showed their photo when they were on vacation in Dubai last month.

Looking at the photo taken by this phone, they now believe their eyes still functioned properly even though they were drunk.

Bai Yutang’s expensive phone, famous for the colour and texture in reality, will be captured perfectly. Even their large pores will be clearly shown. That’s why some ladies prefer the other brand, which camera is flattering them with the smooth filter planted inside to blur their pores.

The photos of Bai Yutang and his boyfriend taken with this handphone, without beauty filter. Looking at a 41 year old guy with no eyebags and smooth skin crushing their pride as young women.

Previously they thought Bai Yutang was hateful. Now they switch sides. His boyfriend is more hateful!

“Is this Dubai?” Xiang Cai asked.

Xiang Cai truly regretted asking where Bai Yutang stayed in Dubai. As an architect he also wants to visit Dubai someday. He wants to ask the hotel and places to visit, which flight is cheaper, the rental car, and other things. That way he might save some money to choose the best places instead of wasting money and time to choose.

Xiang Cai wants to vomit blood when Bai Yutang tells him where they stay, or listen to his itinerary. This is like asking a fuerdai which car to buy. Do they need to think hard when spending money? What they want, just buy, ah. Ordinary man like him couldn’t follow this damn rich people’s style.
