“Oh,” Yan Chuyang compressed his lips and looked up, “Why didn’t you bring me upstairs?”

Wei Qing raised his hand, picked up the cup on the coffee table and took a sip. “You drank too much and you couldn’t walk. I thought it was convenient to bring you into my room.”

Yan Chuyang looked embarrassed and scratched the back of his head. “I’m sorry. Did I become weird after I got drunk? Sorry to have made trouble for you.”

Wei Qing’s face froze. He rubbed the rim of the porcelain cup and said in a hoarse voice, “It doesn’t matter.” Anyway, he got an extremely sweet reward.

“Then don’t go to sleep later,” Yan Chuyang said softly, “I’ve messed up your bed. I’ll go to the bathroom and brush my teeth. After that, I will tidy up your quilt.”

“OK,” Wei Qing replied with his head down. He looked calm and his feelings couldn’t be seen through.

Yan Chuyang heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. ‘Fortunately, Wei Qing doesn’t look very angry.’

He thought that Wei Qing would feel disgusted because he got drunk and slept on his bed. ‘In this way, it seems that he doesn’t hate that thing so much.’

Yan Chuyang turned around and entered the bathroom. He tried to brush his teeth several times to make sure that the strange smell in his mouth had dissipated a little before he rinsed his mouth and put the toothbrush back.

When he went out, Yan Chuyang raised his hand to cover his mouth and puffed. After confirming that it was the refreshing smell of mint toothpaste, he loosened up his shoulders and muttered, “It’s true that wine can’t be drunk too much… It’s harmful.”

After brushing his teeth and taking a good shower to wash the smell of liquor off his body, Yan Chuyang came out of the bathroom with wet hair, wearing a white T-shirt and black sports shorts.

Wei Qing was preparing dinner in the kitchen. The sound of cooking was pleasing to the ear.

Yan Chuyang excitedly ran to the kitchen, leaned against the door frame, and looked at the man’s elegant and handsome side face, saying happily, “Didn’t Nanny Wang make dinner normally? Why are you cooking today?

Wei Qing paused his movement and coughed lightly, “I don’t have work tonight, so I want to do something.”

“Okay,” Yan Chuyang leaned over and looked at the dishes on the cupboard.

Tofu, pork with preserved vegetables, and tenderloin braised in brown sauce.

Yan Chuyang swallowed. These were the dishes he liked and he often asked Nanny Wang to cook these.

“Why are you so kind to me today?” Yan Chuyang bent and looked at the dishes with his eyes wide open. “All of them are my favorite dishes. Have I made any achievements recently so you want to reward me?”

Wei Qing didn’t say anything. He just took out a pair of chopsticks from the tray and handed them to Yan Chuyang, “If you’re hungry, eat first. When the soup is ready, I’ll take the dishes out together.”

“Okay!” Yan Chuyang took the chopsticks, excitedly got a stool in the kitchen and sat down. But just as he was about to eat, he felt uneasy again.

Yan Chuyang put down his chopsticks and turned to Wei Qing. “I’m telling the truth. I can’t receive a reward without making a merit. Why did you make so many delicious dishes for me today?”

Wei Qing glanced at him. When he saw Yan Chuyang’s rosy lips, he suddenly turned his head and coughed awkwardly, “To compensate you.”

“Compensate?” Yan Chuyang frowned. “For what?”

Wei Qing took the spoon out and hung it on the wall. He said coldly, “Why are you asking so much? Just eat what I cook. Besides, these dishes aren’t made just for you. I like to eat them, too.”

Yan Chuyang became increasingly uneasy. He suddenly stood up from his stool and said, “Is it the breakup dinner? Do you want to divorce me?”

“What are you talking about?” Wei Qing was even more agitated. He slammed the spoon and said coldly.

Yan Chuyang also stared at him and pointed to the food on the table, “I like to eat tofu, but you don’t eat it at all. You even dislike seeing tofu. Today, you even cooked tofu for me. You must have done something guilty. You…”

“Come here!” Wei Qing suddenly interrupted him.

Yan Chuyang was stunned and took a step back in panic. “I won’t come over. I’m not going abroad. I’m very busy recently. I don’t have time to divorce you. I…”

“Come here!” Wei Qing warned.

Looking at his gloomy face, Yan Chuyang was flustered as he pinched the side of his pants. “What are you doing?”

Wei Qing sighed, took two steps forward to his side, raised his hand and touched his lips. With sadness in his eyes, Wei Qing asked, “Do you still feel uncomfortable in your… mouth?”

“Huh?” Yan Chuyang looked up at him blankly.

Wei Qing pinched his chin impatiently and opened his mouth to check it out carefully. Seeing there was no swelling in his throat, he let out a sigh of relief, “Do you feel comfortable in your mouth now? Do you need medicine?”

Yan Chuyang raised his hand and pinched his Adam’s apple blankly. “It’s fine. It hurts just when I swallow.”

“I’m sorry,” Wei Qing held him by his shoulder and hugged him tightly, feeling guilty.

‘I’m a bastard.

I don’t like Yan Chuyang, but I treated him as a tool to vent my desire.

At that time, Yan Chuyang was out of breath because of pain. He was coughing non-stop, and he didn’t even have the strength to struggle. He started sobbing, but I still forced him to bear my uncontrolled desire by taking advantage of his unconsciousness.

I’m guilty. I’m a lousy person.’

Yan Chuyang patted his shoulder in confusion, “Why did you apologize? I drank too much. It’s me who should apologize. I must’ve caused you a lot of trouble.”

Wei Qing exhaled and suddenly asked uneasily, “Are you still willing to let me kiss you?”

Yan Chuyang’s body stiffened and he pushed him away in a panic. He stared into Wei Qing’s eyes and asked, “What did you mean? Kissing every day is included in the contract terms. You can’t change it as you want.”

Looking at his moving lips, Wei Qing felt sad and said with difficulty, “Don’t worry. I will never do that in the future.”

Yan Chuyang’s face turned pale, “You mean you’re going to violate the term and not to kiss me anymore?”

“No,” Wei Qing pinched Yan Chuyang’s chin and pecked his lips, saying softly, “I will kiss you as long as you are willing.”

Yan Chuyang replied with reddened ears, “Of course. It’s included in the contract.”

Wei Qing’s eyes flashed and he said in a low voice, “Yes, that’s right.”

‘It’s just a cooperation between us.’

Wei Qing said repeatedly in his heart.
