Sheng Baiye’s voice echoed through the night air, his words acting like a sharp blade that pierced straight through Shi Yue’s heart.
“I know you fancy me, which is exactly why you want to sabotage my marriage to Shi Jun. However, I’m afraid I’m going to have to disappoint you I will absolutely never give up on Shi Jun.”
Shi Yue’s pupils dilated violently. Sheng Baiye’s words were a total execution! His plan had been thoroughly exposed, his hidden motives ruthlessly laid bare. His face turned pale in an instant, a volatile mix of intense embarrassment and fury washing over his features, leaving him completely humiliated.
The moment the words left his lips, Sheng Baiye turned and walked away, guiding Shi Jun along with him. Their figures cast long shadows under the moonlight, offering a silent proclamation of their deep understanding and intimacy.
A warm current coursed through Shi Jun’s chest. He gazed up at Sheng Baiye, his eyes sparkling with pure admiration and affection.
As their silhouettes gradually vanished into the dark night, Shi Yue was left standing entirely alone on the spot.
“System, did you see that? Sheng Baiye is so incredibly cool, and he loves me so much,” Shi Jun crowed internally, his voice dripping with smugness as he flaunted his happiness.
[I saw it, I saw it. Is it even legal for you two to abuse a single dog like this?]
007’s electronic response carried a distinct wave of bitterness, its virtual eyes rolling so hard they nearly flew into the sky.
Sheng Baiye felt the burning intensity of Shi Jun’s gaze. His stride paused for a fraction of a second before he slowly turned his head to look at him. The corners of his mouth curved upward into a deeply doting smile as he murmured softly, “I love you too.”
Shi Jun’s heart thudded violently, skipping a beat entirely. A vivid, brilliant blush rushed to his cheeks instantly, resembling the vibrant hues of a sunset. His chest swelled with profound sweetness and contentment.
Not too far away, Shi Yue watched as Sheng Baiye and Shi Jun walked further and further into the distance, a flash of deep agony and unyielding resentment flitting across his eyes. His fists clenched tightly of their own accord, a tidal wave of fury surging inside him as he demanded bitterly in his mind, On what grounds does he get this?
Following the confrontation in the garden, the couple decided to make an early exit, quickly departing from the venue.
The moment they stepped through the front door of their home, Sheng Baiye could no longer suppress the burning impulse raging in his chest.
He wrapped his arms around Shi Jun, pulling him flush against his body. His breathing was ragged, his eyes filled with absolute longing and passion. With a swift movement, he pinned Shi Jun down onto the plush sofa, his fervent kiss dropping rapidly and powerfully over Shi Jun’s lips.
Baiye’s lips lightly brushed against Shi Jun’s ear, his hot, heavy breaths causing Shi Jun’s heart rate to skyrocket instantly. The young man felt completely consumed by this sudden wave of passion, slipping into a breathless, dazed state.
Tenderness flickered deep within Sheng Baiye’s eyes a warmth so profound that even he himself could not resist it.
Leaning in closer, his low, seductive voice vibrated softly against Shi Jun’s ear. “Shi Jun, call me that again.”
Shi Jun played dumb, blinking innocently. “Call you what?”
Sheng Baiye’s gaze darkened. His hand slid down to Shi Jun’s waist, giving the slender, delicate curve a firm squeeze. That deliberate, intimate touch sent a sudden shiver through Shi Jun’s body, feeling exactly like an electric current snapping down his spine.
“Shi Jun, I like you. Call me that one more time.”
Tickled by Sheng Baiye’s teasing, Shi Jun gave a charming, sultry smile. “Ah-Ye… Hubby… Darling… I think I love you even more than I did in our past life.”
Although Sheng Baiye did not fully comprehend what Shi Jun meant by a “past life,” every single word felt like a sweet confection, thoroughly filling the chambers of his heart.
“Past life?” he repeated in a low murmur, the corners of his lips curving into a tender smile. “In that case… are you willing to spend our next life together as well?”
Sheng Baiye’s lips pressed softly against the column of Shi Jun’s neck, lightly trailing along the sensitive skin and sending wave after wave of fine tremors through the young man’s frame. His hand slid smoothly up Shi Jun’s spine, his fingertips leaving a delicate path of heat against his skin. Shi Jun’s body tensed instinctively before melting completely, thoroughly surrendering to this silent, intense intimacy.
Shi Jun trembled softly, whispering, “I am willing.”
Lifting him up in his arms, Sheng Baiye carried him to the bed, pressing him down into the mattress. He systematically conquered every inch of territory, piece by piece, until Shi Jun was left completely breathless and entirely pliable beneath him.
As the night deepened, their bodies intertwined in the darkness, resembling two fish navigating the deep ocean, tightly coiling around one another as they sought out each other’s breath and heartbeat.
When the night finally receded, the morning light filtered gently through the half-drawn curtains, resting softly on Shi Jun’s face.
Shi Jun lay lazily propped up on the soft pillow, utterly reluctant to wake up completely from his dreams. From behind, Sheng Baiye wrapped his arms securely around his waist, pressing a gentle, tender kiss against his cheek. “You worked hard last night.”
Feeling his familiar aura, Shi Jun extended his arms, locking them tightly around Sheng Baiye’s waist. He buried his face squarely against the man’s solid chest, his voice sounding muffled as it drifted out. “Your figure is seriously amazing… your muscles are so firm…”
Before Shi Jun could even finish his sentence, Sheng Baiye interrupted him with a tender kiss.
His lips pressed softly against Shi Jun’s forehead before traveling slowly downward, sealing their lips together. The kiss was incredibly gentle yet saturated with profound emotion, as if whispering an endless declaration of love.
As the kiss drew to an end, Sheng Baiye pulled back a fraction, staring down into Shi Jun’s eyes, which had grown misty from the intensity of the embrace. He let out a soft chuckle, saying, “Not just my body—every single piece of me belongs entirely to you.”
Leaning in even closer, he offered a sincere, vulnerable plea. “I only hope you will remain by my side forever.”
His voice carried a faint trace of fragility and raw anticipation, as if desperately praying for the young man’s affirmation.
Shi Jun gazed deeply into Sheng Baiye’s eyes, offering a soft, unhesitating response, “Of course I will stay by your side forever.”
His words acted like a gentle spring breeze. A brilliant spark of joy and gratitude flared up in Sheng Baiye’s eyes, the corners of his lips tilting upward into a profoundly happy smile.
