Three Years and Three Years - Chapter 10

Chapter 10: Brimming with Love

Zhou Mushi took the cup and took a few sips, and his empty stomach immediately felt much better. His pale face also looked better.

He put down the cup and turned over on the sofa, leaning weakly against Jin Yang’s leg and rubbing against it.

“I don’t feel very well. I want to drink some plain rice porridge.”

Jin Yang immediately frowned when he heard that Zhou Mushi wasn’t feeling well. He leaned down and used his lips to test the temperature on Zhou Mushi’s forehead. Fortunately, he wasn’t running a fever, but he did look uncomfortable.

He held Zhou Mushi in his arms, like a child tightly embracing their most beloved toy. He kissed the corner of Zhou Mushi’s mouth with love and tenderness.

“It’s cold outside in winter, I shouldn’t have let you go out and run around.”

Zhou Mushi leaned against his waist with little strength and lay there, “It’s nothing. Aren’t office workers still not on holiday? It’s okay to go out and freeze a little. My stomach hasn’t been feeling well lately, I can’t smell strong odors and can’t eat anything that’s hard to digest.”

Jin Yang touched the soft flesh on his cheek and frowned, ‘Why didn’t you tell me earlier? Next time, if you don’t feel well, you must tell me early, do you understand?’”

Zhou Mushi nodded docilely. He hadn’t slept well last night and had been running around for most of the day. Now he was a bit tired.

He yawned and slid off of Jin Yang’s lap onto the couch. “I’ll take a nap first, call me when dinner is ready,” he said.

Jin Yang stroked the scattered hair on his forehead and pulled the nearby blanket over him. He spoke softly, “Sleep tight.”

He walked to the entrance and dimmed the lights in the room, making it more csuitable for sleeping. Then, he quietly made a pot of rice porridge in the kitchen before returning to the sofa.

“Ding Dong” the sound of a notification on the phone rang, and subconsciously, Jin Yang lowered the volume, afraid that the sound would wake up the person who had just fallen asleep.

He didn’t intend to look at Zhou Mushi’s phone, but he still caught a glimpse of the screen’s content when adjusting the volume: “Xiao Zhou, come again next time when you have the chance. The client feedback is satisfactory.”

He just said he was going to his roommate Lin Shucheng’s place. However, now it seems that this is probably just a lie.

The light shone on the sleeping face on the couch, outlining a beautiful shadow. It was hard to say which facial feature was more prominent, but when they all came together, everything was just right. This face was good-looking, a kind of sadistic beauty1.

Jin Yang has always hated people close to him lying to him, which is different from the usual business scenes and empty talk.

He was afraid to think about what Zhou Mushi had done, hiding it from him like this. But this face, this person, no matter what he does, there will always be a group of people who willing to forgive him.

Can’t he let Zhou Mushi trust and be satisfied with him completely? Why does he need to serve clients?

A usually gentle person suddenly had a terrible and eerie thought in his mind.

He actually thought about hanging Zhou Mushi on the beam, or handcuffing him to the headboard to interrogate him. If he refused to talk, then he would use a cold water-soaked whip to lash him. Zhou Mushi’s skin is very fair, so it would be quite attractive to add a few red marks.

Jin Yang shuddered and felt it was hard to believe that he could come up with such a terrible idea.

To put it in a sentimental way, Zhou Mushi is the apple of his eye. Who would be willing to harm their beloved?

He bent down and lightly placed a kiss on Zhou Mushi’s cheek. When he looked up, his eyes were brimming with love, gazing at the only person in the world who could go wild and unrestrained with him in his world.
