Captured By The Cold Detective (BL)-Chapter 124: Don’t Want To Move
Mu Yuze became as quiet as a quail as He Juan carried him into the house, his cheeks flaming red. Indeed, the wish he had told He Juan back on the mountain path was – ’I want... you to pamper me.’
At first, he was going to say ’I want you’ or ’I want your everything’, but because he did not want He Juan to think that he was a frivolous omega who would snag an Alpha on his first date, he forcibly changed his words at the last second.
However, the pampering he had imagined was only limited to opening the door for him, holding his hands gently, making sure that he was well-fed and taking care of his needs – typical of how a courting Alpha would cater to their omega – and it definitely did not include... this!
He Juan did not even allow his feet to touch the ground. What omega? This was clearly a treatment for a fucking Princess!
However, who could say no to this? Who could resist such a gentle and affectionate treatment from an Alpha like He Juan? Mu Yuze’s heart felt like it was being tickled by countless feathers and he could not help but bury his burning face into He Juan’s shoulder, earning him a deep pleasant chuckle that utterly failed to abate the surging heat on his chest but fanned it wilder instead.
Goodness, how could that brief chuckle be so dreadfully attractive? He Juan had not even started anything yet and Mu Yuze already got the urge to wave the white flag. But he could not deny that... he wanted to see. He wanted to see how far He Juan was willing to go for him. He wanted to savor the gentleness He Juan showered him with. This overwhelming bliss, throbbing anticipation and a sliver of anxiety – he wanted them all. He was just that greedy... 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Despite having a full-grown adult male in his arms, He Juan smoothly entered the house, flicked on the light, toed off his shoes before striding to the living room and carefully placing Mu Yuze down to the couch.
He did not straighten up but instead crouched down to hold Mu Yuze’s ankle, then gently took off the shoes and socks for him. Mu Yuze saw the Alpha’s serious and dedicated look and his heart fluttered even wilder in his chest. He was so lost in trance that he almost jolted out of his skin when he felt a gentle touch on his stomach.
He Juan placed a palm on his abdomen and rubbed it gently, then he peered up at Mu Yuze with a concerned look, "You ate quite a lot today. Do you feel uncomfortable here?"
It was fine when He Juan had not brought it up. But once he did, Mu Yuze started to feel a wave of nausea churning his stomach – he had no idea whether it was due to the tension or indigestion. However, it was undeniable that if this kept on any longer, then he was going to puke out everything he had eaten. Mu Yuze pursed his lips together, upset. Why the hell did he have to eat so much?! He would rather die than to show He Juan such an unsightly scene!
He Juan took one look at the omega’s tense figure and could guess that he was indeed feeling a tad uncomfortable. Flipping through his memory, He Juan thought that he had seen some pills in the medicine kit when he stayed over back then. There should be indigestion pills among them.
Thinking up to here, He Juan stood up and brushed Mu Yuze’s sweaty bangs away, then he leaned down to press a lingering kiss on it. He smiled as his fingers brushed against the adorably flushed earlobes. "It’s okay, Gege has said it earlier. You can take it easy today and leave everything to me, okay? Wait for a while, don’t lie down first."
After saying that, he turned to the kitchen and rummaged through the cabinet for a medicine kit. Fortunately, there was indeed a box of indigestion pills. He Juan checked the expiry date and went to fetch a glass of warm water before he returned to the living room.
At first glance, he could see Mu Yuze sitting straight on the couch, his entire body exuding a gloomy and frosty aura that could be perceived from miles away. If He Juan had not known better, he would have thought that someone had murdered Mu Yuze’s entire family or something! With a helpless chuckle, he walked forward and placed the medicine and glass of water on the low table in front of Mu Yuze. "Here. Make sure not to drink too much water, okay? Wait a minute, Gege will make something good for you."
He Juan gave Mu Yuze some space and busied himself in the kitchen. It was fortunate that he had the insight to stash some ginger and assortment of tea packages in Mu Yuze’s kitchen. If Mu Yuze was too busy to make anything healthy, then He Juan would gladly send it to his mouth.
Ever since he learned that Mu Yuze lived alone without parents and relatives by his side, he already felt very distressed.
Other omegas were treated akin to fragile porcelain by their parents, but his omega was so independent that he could take down Betas and Alphas. The more He Juan thought about it, the more his heart ached. If it was not him, then who would pamper Mu Yuze? As such, He Juan strived to give the best for Mu Yuze. Even without that request, He Juan was already prepared to treat him very well – even better than any other Alphas could ever do.
As the water started to boil, the soothing scent of camomile mixed with a little spice of ginger wafted in the air. He Juan let the tea simmer for a few more minutes to make it more flavorful. He poked his head out of the kitchen and was satisfied to see that Mu Yuze had drank the medicine and his complexion had turned for the better. He was lazily scrutinizing the bouquet from all angles as if he could not see enough.
"Do you want to wash up first?" He Juan resisted a smile and raised his voice to ask. "By the time you’re done, the tea is just right to be consumed before bedtime."
Mu Yuze glanced at the clock in the living room and fell into a momentary silence. It was not even 10 pm yet, who the hell was going to sleep at a time like this?! Oh right, there was this ol’ man He Juan.
Looking at He Juan’s perfectly innocent face, Mu Yuze could not help but get a little angry. He had painstakingly brought the Alpha home, only to be tucked into the bed in the end?! Who was he trying to kid?!
Entirely out of spite, Mu Yuze pretended to think for a moment before nodding, "It’s been a long day and a bath sounds very nice." Before He Juan could usher him into the bathroom, he added lazily, "But Gege, I really don’t want to move right now."
He Juan was stunned.
The implication behind that sentence could not be more obvious. He wanted to take a nice bath, but he was unwilling to move. Then there was only one solution to that – and that was to have He Juan help him wash.
