Stars run to him chapter 64
“That”
About half an hour passed.
Gu Zhongyi drove the car into the basement parking lot of the apartment building. After parking, he unbuckled his seatbelt first. He reached out and gently touched Lin Yuxing’s cheeks and ears, ‘Yuxing, we’ve arrived.’
Still feeling drowsy, Lin Yuxing rubbed his eyes, looking like he hadn’t slept enough.
Gu Zhongyi unfastened Lin Yuxing’s seat belt and put it aside. He got out of the car, went to the passenger side, and directly lifted Lin Yuxing out.
Suddenly, Lin Yuxing fully awakened and subconsciously kicked his feet, wanting to walk on his own.
Gu Zhongyi said, ‘I made you angry today, so I have to carry you.’
He had a unique way of being shameless, and only Lin Yuxing could enjoy it.
Lin Yuxing grumbled, ‘What’s the connection between these two things?’
‘I don’t know.’
Gu Zhongyi’s response almost made Lin Yuxing laugh out loud.
Gu Zhongyi then kissed Lin Yuxing’s forehead.
A bit “chaotic.”
Lin Yuxing shrank his neck, but he didn’t evade it.
Gu Zhongyi was someone who stopped when he had enough, and he wouldn’t act cute for no reason. Before Lin Yuxing said anything, he directly carried him into the elevator.
Lin Yuxing considerately took out the elevator card and pressed the floor for Gu Zhongyi, who couldn’t use his hands, showing that he was indeed no longer angry.
Inside the enclosed space of the elevator, Lin Yuxing affectionately hugged Gu Zhongyi’s neck, no longer maintaining any distance as they did outside.
‘Where did you go this afternoon? Why did you delay today?’ Lin Yuxing asked, ‘If it’s inconvenient, you don’t have to tell me.’
‘It’s not inconvenient.’ Gu Zhongyi thought for a moment and said, ‘It was just a small matter, and it’s already resolved.’
Gu Zhongyi didn’t intend to lie to Lin Yuxing.
But considering various factors, Lin Yuheng didn’t want and couldn’t reveal his true identity to Lin Yuxing. So he asked Gu Zhongyi to keep it a secret.
Gu Zhongyi didn’t object, as anyone would find it unbelievable to talk about “rebirth” or “returning to life.”
And knowing Lin Yuxing’s character, he might even take the responsibility of raising money and send both of them to the hospital for brain checkups.
Thinking about it was giving him a headache.
Gu Zhongyi didn’t want Lin Yuxing to misunderstand him as mentally deranged.
When they arrived home, Lin Yuxing wanted to take a shower first.
Gu Zhongyi changed into casual home clothes, tied an apron, and skillfully cooked scallion oil in the kitchen.
If Gu Zhuang knew that the son he carefully raised to take over the company was now wholeheartedly devoted to the family, both in the living room and the kitchen, he might be so angry that he’d spit blood.
Gu Zhongyi had considered this, but if he could infuriate Gu Zhuang to the point where he wouldn’t bother with him anymore, he thought it wouldn’t be a bad thing.
Meanwhile, Lin Yuxing took a quick shower. He changed into pajamas, tied a comfortable braid, and wandered around the bedroom without knowing what to do for a while before coming out.
After living in that apartment for some time, it had become Lin Yuxing’s home away from home. He was no longer as restrained as he was the first time he came here, and he had grown familiar with everything in the house.
Sometimes, he even contributed something, like that day’s small basket of flowers, which he placed on the coffee table.
Lin Yuxing swiftly made his way to the kitchen, holding something in his hand, and when he entered, he gave Gu Zhongyi a kiss.”
One moment, Gu Zhongyi was contemplating whether to cut some fruits; the next moment, he was as eager as ever to kiss more. As he leaned forward, Lin Yuxing used four fingers to block his lips and slipped a folded note into his hand.
“Thank you for cooking dinner; this is my gift for you,” Lin Yuxing raised an eyebrow, reminding him, “Take a look; it’s specially written for you.” After saying that, he walked out of the kitchen with a triumphant air, holding two plates of noodles.
Gu Zhongyi’s pheromones seemed to be jumping around as he stared at the kitchen door that Lin Yuxing closed, eagerly opening the note.
He saw a neatly arranged list of “forbidden words.”
Condoms were proudly on the list.
Gu Zhongyi: “…”
To avoid embarrassing situations in public, Lin Yuxing requested that Gu Zhongyi use “that” instead of those vulgar words in the future.
That was not only Lin Yuxing’s gift for Gu Zhongyi’s dinner but also his retaliation for the ” gift” Gu Zhongyi gave him in the car, which left him speechless. It showed Gu Zhongyi a side of Lin Yuxing that was thoughtful but also held grudges.
And the retaliation was deliberate and childish, quite “that.”
Gu Zhongyi chuckled and playfully filled the note thoroughly with the word “that,” acknowledging the penalty.
That night, good news came from Gu Nuan; he finally won over the Alpha he liked, and they successfully began dating.
Lin Yuxing’s phone was the first to receive Gu Nuan’s message: “[Dear friends, in this season of April when everything revives, I, Gu Nuan, have finally achieved mutual love with my Alpha.]”
More surprisingly, Gu Zhongyi’s usually inactive Moments (social media) suddenly had its first post that day.
Gu Zhongyi: “[The flowers he gave.]”
Attached was a picture of Lin Yuxing’s flower arrangement assignment from the flower arrangement class, a fresh little basket mainly featuring sunflowers.
Immediately, Gu Zhongyi’s Moments exploded.
Within a minute, there were twenty-three likes and dozens of comments.
Yang Qing: “[What? Am I seeing right? You’re showing off your affection in Moments? You, Gu Zhongyi, are displaying affection in your Moments?]”
Ji Mu: “[Wishing you lasting happiness (smiling face).]”
Gu Nuan: “[Wow, are we having double good news from the Gu family tonight?]”
Ji Mu replied to Gu Nuan: “[What do you mean?]”
Gu Nuan replied to Ji Mu: “[Ahem… nothing!]”
Gu Nuan replied to Ji Mu again: “[Wait, this is Zhongyi’s Moments, right? When did you become friends?!]”
Su Li: “[Is this what people call love? (sly smile)]”
Basketball Teammate 1: “[ Envious.]”
Basketball Teammate 2: “[As a single person, I shed tears of envy. I still remember the sweetness of the water Lin Yuxing brought us last time. So that’s the sweetness of your love?]”
Basketball Teammate 3: “[ are you nuts? What are you talking about? Haven’t you ever had bottled water in your life? I’ll buy it for you tomorrow!]”
Lin Yuxing wasn’t in a particularly good mood that day.
But no matter how lively Gu Zhongyi’s Moments was, he was not interested in participating at the moment.
Because Gu Zhongyi was currently practicing what Lin Yuxing had taught him, fully demonstrating what “that” meant in bed.
And, he even kindly lowered his voice and asked Lin Yuxing, “Do you need me to ‘that’ you?”
“…”
“‘That’ feels great, doesn’t it?”
“…”
“How’s my ‘that’?”
“…”
“Yuxing, stop biting your lip. Your voice is most pleasant when ‘that’-ing.”
He had to admit; he was starting to agree with Lin Yuxing’s suggestion. The word “that” contained everything, even words that used to be difficult for him to say, now he could naturally say them.
So, Gu Zhongyi was all about “that,” “that,” “that”!
Such simple words yet full of mystery. It was so mysterious that Lin Yuxing struggled and tried to escape by kicking his feet, but Gu Zhongyi caught his ankle and pressed him down.
With teary eyes, Lin Yuxing opened his eyes, hoarsely protesting, “I quit! I really quit ‘that’!”
He swore that he would never do such a stupid thing again.
“Senior, I was wrong; I was really wrong,” he sniffled, “No more ‘that’…”
Gu Zhongyi rejected him, saying in a firm yet nonsensical manner, “It’s your request, and I must strictly comply with it.”
Lin Yuxing: “???”
Gu Zhongyi looked calm and collected, going crazy when he wanted to.
Helpless, Lin Yuxing cursed in his heart.
