Chapter 94 - Getting Over It
Edited by Ruru
Even Qi Jingchen had gotten up to take a look at the situation outside, so the other people had obviously done so as well.
Especially those who had been on night watch or patrol, who could see the riverside situation very clearly.
If they saw someone else with a naked woman by the river, they definitely would have thought that they were on a date or were engaging in a clandestine love affair. But with Nie Yi...
These people were all looking at the woman sympathetically. Really, of all people, to actually take a fancy to Nie Yi; look, didn’t she get beaten up?
The explosion was too abrupt; Xu Qiuyu was already injured by the bomb before she could react. At the very beginning, she could think of nothing aside from screaming, and only thought of calling for help after a while. “Save me! Save me! Please, someone help...”
Blood cascaded down her body from her face. She did not need to think much to know that it was over for her, completely over. Her face...
Xu Qiuyu could feel a very deep wound on her face. All of this made her too afraid of imagining what she would end up looking like.
She was suddenly very regretful that she did not discuss it with her father before making such a reckless decision. She originally thought that, given her identity as Qi Jingchen’s little sister, Nie Yi would, at most, just say a few humiliating sentences like before.
Xu Qiuyu’s voice sounded extremely mournful. It was then that the patrolling members realised that her chest and entire face were badly mangled by the explosion.
“Have someone carry her away and stop her bleeding,” Nie Yi said. He only recalled that his ability was abnormal at the last minute and thus had promptly withdrawn a portion of his ability, but Xu Qiuyu was still severely hurt from the explosion— probably already disfigured.
To Nie Yi, it was as it should be to even kill someone as unruly as Xu Qiuyu. However, no matter what, this person had half the same blood as Qi Jingchen, so he was lenient.
The people on nightwatch took Xu Qiuyu away very quickly. Seeing her face and chest covered in wounds, they couldn’t help but sigh ruefully— Nie Yi was just too insensitive, to actually be willing to be so heavy-handed on such a delicate little girl.
“Nie Yi is so admirable!” Shao Zhenglan was on the floor below Qi Jingchen, voicing this aloud after opening the window and seeing the situation.
During their journey, she had seen many men indulge in a life of debauchery after becoming powerful. Compared to those sort of people, Nie Yi really could be said to be a perfectly good man!
It would be great if she could meet a man who treated her the way Nie Yi served Qi Jingchen.
Qi Yaoyao lived together with Shao Zhenglan, and was extremely excited when seeing all of this— Her ge’s suitor truly was quite reliable.
“Nie Yi, come up.” Among the cacophony of noises, Qi Jingchen’s voice wasn’t resounding. However, Nie Yi immediately heard it and raised his head, meeting the gaze of Qi Jingchen, who was standing by the third floor window.
Nie Yi climbed up the outside wall and didn’t take long to reach the third floor, smoothly entering the window with a flip of his body. He smiled at Qi Jingchen. “Did you wake up from the noise? Still want to sleep? Or do you want to eat something?”
It was too dark, and Qi Jingchen could not quite see Nie Yi’s expression. He turned on a small nightlight by the bed with a frown before sitting on the bed and saying, “Come here.”
Nie Yi was confused, but still obeyed. Seeing this, Qi Jingchen pulled Nie Yi’s hand over and took a bite.
Qi Jingchen’s bite didn’t hurt at all, and was just a little ticklish... Nie Yi said, “If you’re angry, bite a little harder.”
Qi Jingchen rolled his eyes at him.
Nie Yi felt that Qi Jingchen still looked good even when rolling his eyes.
Nie Yi’s fire ability could not be used, and the window was currently still open. A gust of wind blew, and the room became increasingly cold. Qi Jingchen’s goosebumps rose from the icy cold. He crawled into bed and bundled himself tight with the blankets.
When Nie Yi saw his appearance, he was unable to have further thoughts on being bitten. He hurriedly got up and went to close the windows, saying, “It’s such a cold day. Don’t open the window and get blown by the wind in the future; what’s to be done if you get a cold?”
Nie Yi nagged endlessly.
Qi Jingchen was a little unhappy in the first place, but hearing Nie Yi speak like this, his heart conversely calmed down. “Who’s that woman?”
The woman had been too violently exploded; he didn’t even see her appearance. But there was one thing he was certain of: he sort of wanted to kill this woman.
“It’s Xu Qiuyu,” Nie Yi said. As he spoke, he laid down beside Qi Jingchen and gathered both Qi Jingchen and the blankets into his embrace— like this, he could be a little warmer.
“It’s her?” Qi Jingchen’s expression was a little cold. Back when Xu Qiuyu wanted to give birth to Nie Yi’s child, he didn’t bother about her since she didn’t really do anything. Though Xu Qiuyu’s reputation became worse because of this, this woman was, after all, his little sister. As such, no one really went after her to bully her, and would just distance themselves from their family at most.
And as a result... Xu Qiuyu actually still wanted to seduce Nie Yi?
Did she not feel guilty when seducing her older brother’s man?
Qi Jingchen rested his head against Nie Yi’s chest and listened to his heartbeat for a while before lifting his head. “Did you see her body?”
“It was so dark; I didn’t see anything at all,” Nie Yi hurriedly proclaimed his devotion. “And I attacked her very quickly, so she later became covered all over in blood.”
Qi Jingchen reached a hand out from under the quilt and grabbed the battery nightlight by the bed, then tore open Nie Yi’s clothes and pointed at the teeth marks on Nie Yi’s left pectoral. “Do you see what this is?”
“What?” Nie Yi looked at his left pecs. After taking a closer look, he realised that there were two faint marks on it, though he didn’t know where it came from.
“This is my bite mark. I made a mark already, you’re mine,” Qi Jingchen said and rested his chin on Nie Yi’s chest.
“Bite mark?” Nie Yi was a little puzzled. When did Qi Jingchen leave a bite mark on his chest? Why can’t he remember?
When Qi Jingchen saw Nie Yi’s appearance, he knew that he didn’t remember anything. That was fair; Nie Yi had been unconscious when Qi Jingchen bit him.
Moreover, probably due to Nie Yi drinking a lot of his blood after, that bite mark had become extremely faint, and one could not even tell that it was a bite mark... Qi Jingchen suddenly really wanted to bite again, like he said, and give Nie Yi a mark.
But that time he was both worried and afraid in his heart, and in his flustered and anxious state, he left a bite on Nie Yi’s body. This time, however, he wasn’t willing to take a bite. He couldn’t even bear to bite forcefully when he bit Nie Yi’s hand.
Forget it. In any case, Nie Yi had a strong sense of self-awareness, so there was no need for him to leave a mark.
Qi Jingchen laid down and wound his spiritual strength around Nie Yi’s.
Nie Yi’s spiritual strength seemed to be waiting for his spiritual strength and simultaneously wound around it. Their spiritual strength tangled together and seemed to merge into a single thread that could no longer be separated.
This person was his, and could only be his. No one else could take him away... this thought flashed by Qi Jingchen’s heart, and his spiritual strength coiled even tighter around Nie Yi’s spiritual strength.
After their near-death from the catastrophe, he was that angry, and loathed Nie Yi’s behaviour because he did not want to see Nie Yi die.
How could Nie Yi die? This guy didn’t even know that he liked him too, and didn’t even know that he had already read books and learnt a lot of theoretical knowledge, and wanted to try the actual combat, so how could he die?
When Qi Jingchen thought of Nie Yi protecting him and his behaviour of ‘fervently meeting death’, the ire in his heart bubbled up again. With a violent jerk in his heart, he bit Nie Yi once more.
The taste of blood spread in his mouth, and Qi Jingchen suddenly sobered up.
He didn’t think he would actually be able to bite Nie Yi. Qi Jingchen subconsciously wanted to let go, but unpredictably, there was some force that made him swallow a few more mouthfuls of Nie Yi’s blood. At the same time, he faintly felt the binding between them become even deeper, as if some force was flowing to his body from Nie Yi’s and allowing his body that had been in poor health for several days to suddenly become energised.
This sort of feeling was extremely mysterious; it felt as if they had become one... Qi Jingchen raised his head to look at Nie Yi, then kissed him.
Nie Yi had kissed him often, but this was their first deep kiss.
Qi Jingchen had long known that his feelings for Nie Yi were unusual. In fact, he had always been very lacking in love and would cherish even the tiniest scrap of love offered by anyone. However, how could what Nie Yi gave to him be considered a scrap?
Nie Yi loved him this much; how could he not love Nie Yi? Perhaps in their last life, the two had repressed themselves to some extent. But during this life’s journey, not only had Nie Yi’s love for him grow deeper, Qi Jingchen was also the same.
In this life, the one he loved the most was Nie Yi, and was only Nie Yi.
Nie Yi hugged Qi Jingchen, a little afraid to believe he had received such a sudden blessing, and responded.
The two of them were inexperienced, so much that they were a little unsure as to what they should do when having such a kiss. However, even if it was just the touch of their tongues, there was still a feeling of great satisfaction.
“Let’s do it ba.” Qi Jingchen parted their lips and looked at Nie Yi.
“What did you say?” Nie Yi suspected that he had heard wrongly. Although he always hated being unable to take Qi Jingchen apart and consuming him in his stomach, in reality, he didn’t have much hope.
“Don’t you want me?” Qi Jingchen came closer to Nie Yi’s ear and blew a breath. In a novel he just read, the male lead was especially unable to bear someone doing this.
Nie Yi’s entire body trembled, and was a little unable to endure. Of course he wanted him, so much that he was desperate to have Qi Jingchen wholly absorbed in his body. But everything before him right now arrived too suddenly, to the point that he suspected that he was dreaming.
He resolutely pinched himself. As a violent pain transmitted to him, the corners of his lips couldn’t help but rise. “Jingchen, Jingchen, Jingchen...”
Hugging Qi Jingchen, Nie Yi flipped their bodies and pressed Qi Jingchen below him. Qi Jingchen smiled and kissed him again.
It was already late at night. Outside, a disfigured person was weeping, and there was someone swearing, while the night watchers loyally patrolled back and forth, and couldn’t help rubbing their arms— this weather truly was cold.
But it was very hot inside the room, very much so.
Back at the beginning when he asked Qi An for some gay novels to read, Qi Jingchen had already wanted them to take the final step after they confessed to each other. And the explosion before also made him even more resolute, and intended to move his original plan ahead of time.
If they were still virgins when dying, that would be a little too pathetic.
He had already thought it through, but something went wrong with his body— He was rarely awake for long during these days, so how could he have the time to think about sex?
With such a delay, they reached today.
When helping resolve the issue with Nie Yi’s ability nucleus during the day with his spiritual strength, Qi Jingchen felt his health improve somewhat. After eating a meal and taking a nap later, he became even more spirited.
As a result, he was just thinking about waiting for his body to recover before seducing Nie Yi, yet Nie Yi was actually seduced by someone else! Even if Nie Yi was not seduced, as long as he thought about Nie Yi seeing another person’s body, anger would uncontrollably burst out in his heart.
Nie Yi was his, and could only be his.
Qi Jingchen was extremely active. Nie Yi had always liked him, so how could he resist this sort of tenderness? But, as they kissed... Nie Yi suddenly realised that Qi Jingchen had no reaction at all, and couldn’t help his body from freezing.
“I have a problem with my body, but I like you. I want to be with you, and I never want to apart anymore.” Qi Jingchen also noticed Nie Yi’s stiffness. He lifted his gaze to look at Nie Yi. He did not know what was going on with him, but he truly did want Nie Yi.
It had already been two lifetimes. He and Nie Yi could no longer part; he loved this person, and did not want to let him go.
Qi Jingchen hugged Nie Yi. The two embraced tightly in the darkness, and Nie Yi said, “I can wait.”
“If I don’t ever get well, are you intending to wait for a whole lifetime? Then when everyone’s dead, you still haven’t done anything?” Qi Jingchen asked, stifling Nie Yi— He was giving him a small advantage today!
Nie Yi: “...” If he could still resist at this time, he wouldn’t be human!
In the depth of the night, Nie Yi knocked on Zhang Zihai and Ping Shengchao’s bedroom door.
“Who is it?” Zhang Zihai opened the door while yawning, his face filled with dissatisfaction, then he saw Nie Yi.
“Nie shao, what’s wrong?” Zhang Zihai asked in confusion. It was so late at night; why was Nie Yi looking for him?
Nie Yi, however, just pointed at the basins beside him. “Give me some hot water.”
So many basins! Zhang Zihai looked at the basins arranged in a row, a little speechless. He also suddenly recalled how Qi Jingchen would often want to shower at the drop of a hat...
Was this wanting to shower after waking up? When in the world would Nie Yi’s ability recover? He wouldn’t come find them every time Qi Jingchen wanted a shower, right?
It was usually still fine; he didn’t mind producing some hot water. But if Nie Yi came and interrupted when they were in the middle of physical interaction... he felt that he definitely wouldn’t be able to resist wanting to beat Nie Yi up!
Fine ba, he was just thinking about it. After all, he couldn’t defeat Nie Yi.
While Zhang Zihai was still gloomy, Ping Shengchao had already walked out and began filling up one of the large pots with water, then ordered Zhang Zihai to come heat it up, even urging him to hurry up.
What should he do when he isn’t as important as his boss in his wife’s eyes? Zhang Zihai sighed and resigned himself to boiling the water— In the end, they were two people, and couldn’t directly make hot water like Nie Yi.
Nie Yi moved the hot water back bit by bit. First, he filled the tub with hot water, then carried the sleeping Qi Jingchen in and gave him a good wash.
He wanted to possess Qi Jingchen too much, and naturally couldn’t refuse Qi Jingchen’s temptation. However, when he thought of Qi Jingchen’s weak health, he ended up only doing it once.
Yet even if it was only once, Qi Jingchen currently appeared a little mauled... Looking at those marks, Nie Yi was a little ashamed, then emptied his mind and helped clean Qi Jingchen up.
As he washed, he saw Qi Jingchen tremble again. Nie Yi couldn’t help but curl his hands into fists.
It was already bad enough that he could not produce water for Qi Jingchen to shower, yet he even made Qi Jingchen feel cold!
This damned ability, unexpectedly it couldn’t be used at the critical moment!
