Chapter 57: You Are My Courage
At night, unlike the bustling cities with their resplendent lights, there were almost no street lights in the countryside, but the moon and stars were exceptionally bright. Here, under the adornment of the moon and stars and accompanied by the cicadas’ song, it was beautiful and tranquil.
After dinner and a bath, Wei Han and his own ‘beautiful wife’ were lying in bed.
Seeing Qi Zhifan had his back to him and seemed to be sulking, Wei Han could only embrace him from behind. “Qi Zhifan, I’m sorry.”
Beside when Wei Han first came to the family and called his proper name, after he gave him the nickname ‘Odd Trouble’, Wei Han almost never called Qi Zhifan’s name.
“......” Qi Zhifan was slightly surprised. On the rare occasion when Wei Han called him seriously, it showed that he’d decided an important matter in his heart.
“Wei Han, what were you running from!” Qi Zhifan turned around all of a sudden and pressed down on Wei Han’s body. A profound and penetrating light shot out from his eyes, staring at the man below him.
“You can’t be my brother anymore, so you can only be my wife.”
Wei Han was foolish for a moment and then nodded. “Yeah, I swear this is the last time. I will never run away again. I’ve thought it over thoroughly these two days: Qi Zhifan, you are my courage.”
“......”
In a split second, Qi Zhifan’s eyes softened. He didn’t want to admit to Wei Han’s stupid face how touched he was just now.
“Odd Trouble, my mom and Uncle Qi, they...they’re alright?”
Qi Zhifan shook his head. “I don’t know. After you ran away that day, they also followed and left. Afterwards, they were unwilling to see me.”
“Then does your grandfather know?” Wei Han added.
“There’s no movement on my grandpa’s side. I think my dad shouldn’t have told him yet.”
“Oh, Odd Trouble, then we’ll go back tomorrow.” Finished saying this, Wei Han reached out and touched Qi Zhifan’s two cheeks and slightly smiled.
“Good.” Qi Zhifan rubbed Wei Han’s chin back and forth with his thumb, his eyes flashing with a predatory light. “But tonight, you must satisfy me first.”
Qi Zhifan kissed Wei Han. Smelling the cheap soap on his body, he found that he didn’t hate it. Qi Zhifan’s wet tongue swept over his gums and scraped his sensitive palate. Wei Han felt himself slowly become numb, sweet and comfortable, and let out a low and light moan.
And their bodies below, the two were incredibly well-fitted together. After Wei Han felt the depths of his body rubbed with friction, the pain and tension retreated and the indescribable fulfillment and happiness slowly rose, gradually becoming accustomed to it.
The scorching, fierce thing had already burned Wei Han’s body into a sea of fire, and the intense pleasure of the membrane also constantly stimulated his nerves. Wei Han was half-intoxicated, half in pain, looking at Qi Zhifan rushing headlong into his own body.
The bright moonlight spilled through the gap in the curtains and shone on Qi Zhifan’s bare chest, his sexy abs and straight waistline beckoned the people’s eyes to stare. The sweat slid along Qi Zhifan’s cheeks, shimmering like shattered crystals, added a bit to his charm.
In a trance, Wei Han sighed, “Odd...Odd Trouble, you’re really good-looking ah.”
Wei Han’s sincere praise from the bottom of his heart made the energetically plowing Qi Zhifan stare blankly for a moment. A burst of heat suddenly rushed to his cheeks, and his lips twitched. “Tch, you just know it now?”
“Heheh, you also look super cute when you blush ah.”
“Shut up! Concentrate a bit for me.” Voice hadn’t fallen when Qi Zhifan very sharply increased the speed and strength of the collisions.
“Mmh uh!” Wei Han couldn’t help crying out.
Qi Zhifan didn’t listen to him. His movements were violent, tightly holding Wei Han underneath and tyrannically riding him. Driving into him again and again, Wei Han’s most unbearable place was heavily plundered.
“Ah! Light...lighter ah!” Wei Han pounded on Qi Zhifan, thinking that in his past life and this life, he really was forced under Qi Zhifan’s hands.
“Wei Han, your grandma is still sleeping next door. You shout so loudly, be careful of being heard,” Qi Zhifan smirked.
After being reminded by him, Wei Han immediately bit his lower lip and could only use his little eyes to stare resentfully at Qi Zhifan.
After that, Qi Zhifan repeatedly penetrated into Wei Han’s interior, penetrating deeply and coming out shallowly, but also used some unbelievable tricky angles to provoke the inside. The sensitive depths were already limp and numb, moist sounds coming from the juncture. Sound after sound were all sweet moans.
Wei Han, trembling all over, exposed the back of his neck. His feelings moved to the extreme, he couldn’t stop a broken cry from escaping between his teeth. He could no longer suppress the disastrous heat that had amassed in his body.
Seeing that the time had almost reached Wei Han’s release, Qi Zhifan kissed Wei Han, and then fed him the hot seeds without stint.
In the second half of the night, Wei Han had no strength at all and could only lie on Qi Zhifan’s chest. The two people’s foreheads were offset, quietly looking at each other for a good while.
Suddenly, Wei Han’s eyes flitted a little. “Odd Trouble, let me ask you: why do you like me?”
Qi Zhifan was a little speechless. Sometimes, he really didn’t understand why this fool always had so many stupid questions.
In fact, he didn’t know how to answer. Thinking back to his and Wei Han’s interactions, Qi Zhifan pulled his lips and casually said, “You’ve seen all the shameful things in my life. You think I’d let you go?”
Wei Han: “......”
Shouldn’t you say something a little romantic at this time? The mouth being too bad was also a kind of disease ah.
Wei Han leaned over and rubbed the tip of his nose against Qi Zhifan’s, and laughingly said, “Odd Trouble, thank you!”
Thank you for being willing to like this kind of frightened and foolish me. I will be more courageous for you later on.
“Speaking nonsense again. Go to sleep.” Qi Zhifan rubbed Wei Han’s head.
The next day, the two bid farewell to Grandma Wei and returned to S City. First, Wei Han and Qi Zhifan went to the home where they’d originally lived with Dad Qi and Mother Wei, and took the initiative to visit and beg for forgiveness.
At home, after so many days, Dad Qi and Mother Wei were already a lot calmer. Before when Wei Han had disappeared and gone back to his hometown in the countryside, they were still worried. Only after confirming that he was fine did they not say anything more.
At this time, Qi Zhifan solemnly faced Dad Qi in the living room, while Wei Han walked into the back room. Mother Wei was in his former room, not saying anything.
The light in Qi Hao’s eyes sank, and he went straight to the topic: “You don’t have to say more. It’s enough to answer a few of my questions.”
“Yes.” Qi Zhifan nodded. He also had this idea. Anyway, both father and son didn’t like to beat around the bush.
“Are you sure you like men?”
“In the past, both men and women, but now, I only want Wei Han,” Qi Zhifan’s eyes didn’t waver as he honestly replied.
Hearing this, Qi Hao lowered his brows and thought for half a day. The light in his eyes fluctuated several times. At last, they returned to tranquility. “So no matter what, you want to be with him?”
Qi Zhifan: “Yeah.”
“If this is indeed what you want, then good...” Qi Hao paused, then asked slowly and cautiously, “I’ll ask you one last question: will you treat Little Han well your entire life?”
“I will.”
At the same time, on Wei Han’s side, he slowly approached Mother Wei who was sitting on the bedside. Mother Wei’s head was lowered, folding Wei Han’s former clothes in her hands and lingering in silence.
Because Wei Han had moved out for a long time, so in addition to the basic furniture in the room, there weren’t too many sundries. But the inside was still neat and tidy and not covered up with white cloths. It could be seen that Mother Wei would often come in to clean, hoping that her son would occasionally come home to stay, even if it was only for one hurried night.
“Mom...” Wei Han crouched at Mother Wei’s feet and softly called.
Mother Wei finally looked up at Wei Han. She pressed her lips into a weak smile. “Han-han, it’s already been a whole week. I’ve thought of a lot of things from your childhood.”
Wei Han remained silent and listened to Mother Wei’s narrative.
“You ah, since your father passed away, you’ve had the habit of not saying anything when you’ve suffered some wrong. Every time, I had to gently coax you before you’d cry and say it, really silly. Now in the blink of an eye, you’re so big, but there’s more secrets hidden in your heart that you’d never say anything to this mom.”
“I’m sorry, mom, I didn’t want to hide it from you, just...”
Mother Wei shook her head and didn’t let her son continue. “Don’t say anymore, I understand. Han-han, I also recently thought of your father’s last wish: he told me to respect your choice. So when you wanted to become a chef or a policeman before, I didn’t stop it. Now I think, if you truly feel happy, I also would notー”
Mother Wei hadn’t finished speaking when Wei Han rushed over and tightly hugged her, sobbing, “Mom, thank...thank you! Really...really thank you!”
Mother Wei patted Wei Han’s back like she’d coaxed him back when he was child. “I’m your mother, what’s there to thank ah. Actually, thinking from a different angle, letting you and Fan-fan take care of each other, I’m also very relieved. Just Han-han, even if Fan-fan likes men, but I really didn’t expect he’d fall for you.”
Wei Han: “......”
After passing through their parents, there was still the Qi family’s Old Master.
“Odd Trouble, you don’t need to hurry to take me to meet your grandfather. I want to see him alone first,” Back at their home, Wei Han took the initiative and said this to Qi Zhifan.
The light in Qi Zhifan’s eyes changed. “Are you sure?”
“I’m sure.”
“Not afraid?” Qi Zhifan asked again.
Wei Han shook his head. His five fingers slowly closed together, and a kind of fervent luster appeared in his eyes. “I’ve said: you are my courage.”
At the Qi family grand mansion, Wei Han brought over some small cakes and biscuits that he’d personally made. Standing in front of Old Master Qi, Wei Han was very nervous inside, but his face still maintained a smile.
After Old Master Qi indifferently swept over Wei Han with a glance, he wasn’t interested in sizing him up again. Although Mother Wei had already married Qi Hao and the two were lawfully husband and wife, but in Old Master Qi’s eyes, except for Qi Zhifan, there simply wasn’t this grandson Wei Han to speak of. He was still far from adequate.
The old steward surnamed Liang by the side seemed a lot more amiable. He poured a cup of tea for Wei Han.
“Grandpa, hello.” Wei Han slightly bowed in courtesy.
Old Master Qi’s face was expressionless. “Who told you to come? Qi Hao, or Zhifan?”
“No one. I wanted to meet you on my own.”
The atmosphere was somewhat awkward. Secretly pinching his palm, Wei Han felt that he couldn’t be too dull, so he smiled and said, “Grandpa, you’re really so handsome ah!”
Traces of the years were left behind on Old Master Qi’s weather-beaten face, but the silhouette still looked handsome and his voice was like a great bell. Qi Zhifan was more like his mother, but thinking of Uncle Qi’s face, it should have been inherited from Old Master Qi.
Old Master Qi coldly snorted, only thinking that Wei Han looked quite honest, but seemed like he could be very fawning.
“What matter do you have?” the Old Master’s attitude was extremely cold.
“Uh, actually...it’s not much. I just wanted to bring a little gift to come visit you.”
“Old Liang, see the visitor out.” Words finished, Old Master Qi turned and left.
“......” Wei Han was a bit frustrated. Although he’d been mentally prepared, but he didn’t expect that they’d only chatted a couple words when the Old Master no longer wished to speak with him.
But fortunately, the Old Master didn’t shut him out from the beginning when he’d learned of his identity.
“Mr. Wei, finish this cup of tea, then go,” at this time, Butler Liang said slowly. His first impression of Wei Han was still quite good, so he wasn’t in a hurry to urge him to leave.
“Thank you. Can I call you ‘Uncle Liang’?”
“Of course you can.”
After Old Master Qi left, Wei Han’s tense nerves relaxed. He looked around the hall and his sight was drawn to a picture in the middle of the wall. The red sun shone on the morning clouds: this was a picture of a sunrise.
Wei Han unconsciously walked over and praised, “Wow! Awesome shot.”
Butler Liang said with a smile, “This photo was taken by the master when he was young. I’ve been with the master for several decades, and I remember when he was at your age, he really liked photography. He traveled around the world and indeed, photographed a lot of beautiful scenery.”
The young masters and young misses who came back and forth to the house were all arrogant. People like Wei Han who didn’t put on airs were rare. Butler Liang couldn’t help but talk more with him.
Wei Han heard this and immediately nodded. “Oh, there was such a thing. Grandpa is so formidable. I didn’t hear Uncle Qi mention it before.”
Butler Liang just smiled and didn’t speak.
At 4 o’clock the next morning, the elderly got up early as usual. It was just that recently, Old Master Qi suddenly had a premonition that something big would happen. He felt a bit uneasy so he slept even less. Thus, the day wasn’t even bright yet when he’d already started doing morning exercises in the yard.
“Grandpa, good morning!” Suddenly, a voice came over. Old Master Qi thought that it was a bit familiar. When he looked up, he saw Wei Han’s silly face again.
“Why are you here again?”
Old Master Qi frowned and asked. Why did this kid come back? Can’t he see that he wasn’t welcomed? And how could Butler Liang just let him run to the backyard?
Ignoring Old Master Qi’s scowl, Wei Han smiled foolishly. “Grandpa, I’ll take you up the mountain to see the sunrise.”
“......”
Suddenly, Old Master Qi was stunned. Only then did he notice that Wei Han was wearing a hat, sportswear, and had a camera hanging from his neck.
The time conditions were limited and Wei Han couldn’t take a tour of the majestic and magnificent famous mountains with his grandfather. However, in S City’s southwestern scenic area, there was a small hill that wasn’t too far by car. From the foot of the hill to the top, without asking for anyone’s help, Wei Han carried Old Master Qi on his back all the way up. Lest they missed the time of sunrise, he didn’t rest several times in the middle.
Seeing Wei Han’s frequent actions of panting and wiping away perspiration, Old Master Qi’s profound eyes became more complicated, but he continued to purse his lips, too lazy to say anything.
When the two reached the top of the hill, the sky gradually began to brighten. They looked at the scenery and the eastern horizon slightly revealed a touch of orange yellow. The sun slowly left the horizon, first exposing a small corner, then gradually, the brightness became more and more dazzling. The rising red sun leapt out, sending out ten thousands golden rays of light in an instant, dispelling the original clouds and gray mist.
The world seemed to light up all at once. Old Master Qi looked at it in a daze. His old face now basked in a layer of golden light looked radiant and suddenly more youthful.
As the sky glowed against the rising sun, Wei Han said with face full of sincerity, “Grandpa, I love Qi Zhifan. Please give him to me!”
Words finished, he followed with a deep bow.
Old Master Qi: “......”
