Later, He Became A Royal Healer-Chapter 114 - Like you.
Chapter 114 - Like you.
You Liangxing’s heart softened. Tilting his head lower, he pillowed his own on Kang Shengzhe’s big head. Their heads overlapped, and in the quiet contentedness, a thick drowsiness gradually swept over him.
For a split second, You Liangxing tried to resist it but he still succumbed to his lethargy and fell asleep.
This sleep lasted for an incomparably long time. When he opened his eyes again, the skies had already become a murky darkness. You Liangxing blinked the haze in his eyes away, and it was only when his awareness returned that he sobered out of shock. He fell asleep? Where was this?
“At home.”
Kang Shengzhe’s voice was raspy and close to his ears. You Liangxing switched on the bedside lamp. Under the illumination of yellowish light, Kang Shengzhe’s face seemed somewhat illusory.
“Weren’t we on the car?”
Kang Shengzhe made a noise of agreement and said: “I carried you off it.”
“The keys to open the door?”
“The administrators downstairs gave it to me after they saw me carrying you, and they even personally sent us up.”
You Liangxing rubbed his forehead because his head still felt a touch woozy. “What time is it?”
“It just hit eight,” Kang Shengzhe replied.
“You were awake the entire time?”
Instead of answering the question, Kang Shengzhe said: “This nap of yours took quite a long time.”
Indeed, it was quite long. You Liangxing had been fixated on returning back to City A and he hadn’t rested properly for three whole days. Hence, even his own biological clock had desynchronised slightly, to the extent where he had lost consciousness while he was on the road.
You Liangxing did not want to continue discussing this topic, he asked: “You actually managed to carry me?”
Kang Shengzhe stilled before he burst out into laughter. “I had to be. Should I show you the abdominal muscles I’ve gained?” Saying that, he leaned closer and started pulling up his shirt when You Liangxing smacked his hand away only to have Kang Shengzhe catching his own hand. He did nothing after that, only converging his expression to look at him deeply.
You Liangxing said: “Were you looking at me the entire time while I was sleeping?”
Kang Shengzhe said: “Yeah, who asked Liang Liang to be so good-looking?”
While he was cracking a joke, Kang Shengzhe’s expression did not resemble the despicable appearance he usually had whenever he was joking. You Liangxing could not help but stretch his hand out to give Kang Shengzhe a hard flick on the forehead. It issued a sound on contact and Kang Shengzhe’s face scrunched, finally shattering the dark and gloomy atmosphere.
“That’s enough, are you still going to be difficult?”
Stiffening, Kang Shengzhe began muttering: “… I wasn’t being difficult, the more I think about it, the more I think about it, the more upset I become, hmpf! Ying ying ying!”
Every time You Liangxing heard that ying ying ying of his, he would usually feel so irritated his head would start hurting, and he never thought there would come a day where he would be gladdened to hear that phrase. He laughed softly, “Stop with your yings, Even I couldn’t have won against the Physical Education Institute.” Then, he added as an afterthought: “Really.”
He did not know if his words managed to comfort Kang Shengzhe but the Little Giant went quiet for a while. His two arms wrapped around You Liangxing’s waist, and like a small child acting spoilt, he asked: “Liang Liang, do you really not resent me?”
You Liangxing felt helpless. As he had predicted, Kang Shengzhe did care about these. He chuckled, saying: “You’re good enough.”
“Why do I feel like I’ve just been issued a good person card?” Kang Shengzhe murmured.
He could issue a good person card to anyone, but Kang Shengzhe… how could he possibly do that? You Liangxing said: “I don’t resent you, I like you.”
The atmosphere descended into silence. Kang Shengzhe. “… What did you say?”
You Liangxing: “I like you.”
Kang Shengzhe said: “Say it again.”
You Liangxing replied: “I like you.”
Kang Shengzhe: “You have good vision.”
You Liangxing: “&#k2026;&#k2026;”
Before You Liangxing could speak, Kang Shengzhe abruptly flipped his body such that he was on top of him instead of lying on his side. This person was huge in figure and when he caged him from above, he truly had the demeanour of a big tiger.
Unfortunately, even if Kang Shengzhe was a tiger, he was only a paper one; the hands he was using to cuff You Liangxing’s hand was trembling slightly and his lips were quivering as well. When he was spoke, it was apparent that he was incredibly nervous.
Kang Shengzhe: “Liang Liang… I’m very happy, because I, I like you too, I like you more than you like me by a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times, you’re too good, you’re honestly too good to be true…”
You Liangxing: “So you’re giving me another good person card?”
Kang Shengzhe laughed out loud, saying: “How could that be, I like you so much the lower half of body no longer listens to me, Liang Liang, you can touch it if you don’t believe me.”
Others used cheesy pick-up lines, but this person’s affectionate words were not cheesy, they were dirty, dirty and yellow!
You Liangxing’s brows twitched and he exerted strength on his hips to flip them over, thus swapping the pair’s positions in an instant, and he had Kang Shengzhe pressed beneath him. Torn between laughing and crying, he said: “Behave yourself.”
Kang Shengzhe said: “I’m very well-behaved. See, I’m like a gentleman in my gathering of essence.”
Looking at his expression, Kang Shengzhe did not seem panicked at all. Instead, his eyes were glowing brighter, and from his attitude and posture, he truly embodied a gentleman in his actions.
As a two-metre-tall and huge, pampered flower, Kang Shengzhe winked and he discharged a rattling series of words. “It’s a fine moment and you have a beautiful scenery, don’t you want to do something to me?”
You Liangxing: “……” Not really, no.
Kang Shengzhe pouted his lips. “Didn’t you say that you like someone’s face before!”
You Liangxing: “Don’t you use the word someone.”
Kang Shengzhe: “If I don’t say someone, will you decide to do something to me?”
You Liangxing refuted it right away. “Not really.”
Pouting again to express his displeasure, Kang Shengzhe said: “Then someone refuses to listen to you.”
You Liangxing’s brows were consistently jumping now and his head started aching as if an old illness had relapsed. “… Talking to you is like afflicting myself with trouble.”
Kang Shengzhe deeply agreed, “Right?! When we’re together, this mouth really shouldn’t be used for talking.”
You Liangxing: “……” You have the right to shut up.
Although You Liangxing felt like he was going to die from Kang Shengzhe’s brand of poison, he was also worried that this person would press him down again if he were to let go. Rather than being pressed down by Kang Shengzhe, he preferred being the one pressing him down since this person was too heavy and his body was bound to become numb after a period of time. As he gazed at Kang Shengzhe’s face with rapt attention, You Liangxing unconsciously zoned out…
Yes, what Kang Shengzhe said had some truths to it.
It was undoubtedly true that he really liked Kang Shengzhe’s face, his exquisiteness, his eyes and brows… and the fact that he was a little base.
Kang Shengzhe seemed to read his thoughts and closed his eyes right away. Happily, he said, “Bring it!”
You Liangxing laughed out of anger. Subsequently after, he kissed that incomparably enchanting face gently. Their lips met, spreading boundless warmth, but when they went deeper, it was like the skies were thundering and the earth was on fire.
Kang Shengzhe was usually weak, but once they came into intimate contact, he would successfully transform into a wolf or tiger. If someone was called to comment on their rolling as they were stuck close together, their first reaction would probably be fear because they did not look like they were kissing. Instead, they looked like two stiff corpses holding each other’s head and fighting.
They kissed too fiercely.
Gasps fanned out from the bed, and in the midst of their heavy breathing, Kang Shengzhe said: “Liang Liang say that sentence again.”
“Which sentence?” You Liangxing asked.
Kang Shengzhe: “I like you, I like you, I like you, that line.”
You Liangxing said: “You told me to say it, but you said it repeatedly yourself.”
Kang Shengzhe chuckled, “I thought you wanted to hear it too.”
You Liangxing said: “You thought?”
After he gave that remark, he paused for a beat, “You thought correctly, I do want to hear it.”
They made out for a while more.
Kang Shengzhe’s hands became increasingly dishonest and they mainly tried to tear at You Liangxing’s clothes. No matter what time it was or where they were, neither of them had anything hindering them. And perhaps it could be said that now was a good opportunity to further develop their relationship.
Hurriedly, Kang Shengzhe sat up from the bed and he grabbed the hem of his shirt with both hands and pulled it over his head. His breath was unsteady and the sounds that escaped from his chest seemed to make the temperature rise, and You Liangxing felt dizzy just from hearing it.
When that scalding body pressed closer, You Liangxing did not speak.
Not speaking meant consent; Kang Shengzhe threw himself closer with impressive effort and his lips were about land elsewhere when You Liangxing held onto his shoulders in an abrupt manner to stop his movements. “You stink a little.”
Kang Shengzhe was at a loss. “I’m a little what?”
You Liangxing: “Stinky.”
Kang Shengzhe: “……”
Kang Shengzhe: “You actually called me stinky, You Liangxing! I… I… I ying ying ying!!!”
The loud and sonorous cry pierced the vast sky and it was terribly sharp. Hastily, You Liangxing hugged his head, “I didn’t mean that, I’m saying, did you shower after your basketball competition?”
Kang Shengzhe stopped for a beat. “… I haven’t showered.”
You Liangxing kicked him, “Roll to the shower.”
Kang Shengzhe stared at him with pleading eyes as he said: “If I go and shower, can we continue what we were doing after?”
You Liangxing: “No.”
Kang Shengzhe: “……” Then why the hell am I showering
Not showering!!
Although he was disappointed, Kang Shengzhe was clear in his heart that the atmosphere was not something they had controlled. Truthfully speaking, his relationship with You Liangxing had never been one to proceed that fast. It was better for him to withdraw while things were still amicable, lest he got thrashed.
“Fine…” Getting off the bed, Knag Shengzhe suddenly turned his head back. “Liang Liang, aren’t you showering?”
You Liangxing looked at him, “I’ll shower after you’re done.”
Kang Shengzhe had a face of expectation, “Let’s shower together. Since we can’t continue, showering together is fine, right?”
You Liangxing: “It’s not fine.”
Kang Shengzhe: “Liang Liang~”
You Liangxing: “Shut up.”
Kang Shengzhe: “Liang Liang~~”
You Liangxing: “…. Go now!”
Kang Shengzhe: “Liang~ Liang~~~~~”
You Liangxing: “……”
You Liangxing wore his slippers and stepped on the ground, using one leg to kick Kang Shengzhe’s thigh. Viciously, he said: “Hurry up and go!”
* * *
They went into the bathroom one after another. Kang Shengzhe first started the shower while You Liangxing slipped past his body to accumulate water in the bathtub. Both of them were men; saying that they should refrain had its own points but not refraining had its own arguments too, which made it difficult for You Liangxing to control which side he would lean towards. Ever since You Liangxing entered the bathroom, he had his back facing Kang Shengzhe as he stared at the bathtub attentively.
Kang Shengzhe commented: “Liang Liang, aren’t you going to take off your clothes?”
You Liangxing did not respond which caused Kang Shengzhe to speak again. “Why do you not dare to look at me? You’ve already touched it, what is there to be afraid of?”
You Liangxing’s veins were pulsing. Voice low, he said: “Do you resent your life for being too long?”
Kang Shengzhe was not very afraid: “It’s not like you could bear to beat me to death.”
“Hehe,” You Liangxing laughed, “If you don’t resent your life for being too long, you must resent yourself for having too many teeth then?”
Kang Shengzhe: “……”
“I have decided to use the most serious attitude in the world to take a proper shower,” stated Kang Shengzhe.
You Liangxing laughed coldly. Only when the bathtub was filled did You Liangxing take off his clothes in a succession of light, soft sounds. Although he had his back facing Kang Shengzhe, the taller man’s gaze seemed to be tangible as it scalded You Liangxing into uncertainty.
All that was left was his undergarments and You Liangxing’s movement stopped soon after. He pretended he did not hear Kang Shengzhe’s sigh – one that expressed his regrets vividly – and he dipped into the bathtub after taking a large step.
The water was slightly burning in temperature but comfortable, making You Liangxing sigh with deep feeling. The steam from the water gradually rose, fogging up his vision slightly. By his ear, he could hear the water coming from Kang Shengzhe’s shower but his gaze did not stray at all, and he did not look over once.
Kang Shengzhe let out a sorrowful sigh, lamenting: “The fact that a person is highly principled is a good thing, but isn’t that simply unreasonable when you’re facing me, someone who is as lovely as flowers?”
Ire peaking, You Liangxing burst out into profanities: “Unreasonable for shit!”
Kang Shengzhe hummed, “Just give me a glance please~ My abdominal muscles have become increasingly obvious as of late, really, look, I’m wrapped in a bath towel.”
You Liangxing chose to keep his eyes closed. Hence, Kang Shengzhe issued a drawn-out noise to vocalise his frustration before he went silent soon after.
You Liangxing was just wondering how strange his actions were with the sudden obedience he was displaying when the water level in the bathtub rose abruptly. A long leg stepped into the bathtub, and Kang Shengzhe lowered his body, bringing himself close. His voice was captivating as he said: “Liang Liang~ Let me in.”
