Dizzy…..

Lu Qi propped himself up on his elbows and sat up halfway, looking up at Mu Nanqiao where he was standing beside the bed.

“Ah…..” He blinked and rubbed his face with the back of his hand, smiling softly. “I’m a little dizzy, but I know the…..I know the process. I did my homework.”

“What homework did you do? Did you watch videos?” Mu Nanqiao was very dissatisfied. He knelt on the bed and leaned over to kiss him, asking as he did so: “Is this what a good baby should do?”

Lu Qi embraced him. He shook his head first, then nodded, and pa, smacked Mu Nanqiao on the back. “I’m an adult, I can watch them.”

“Okay…..” The distinct joints of his fingers undid his buttons as if unwrapping a gift. Mu Nanqiao lowered his face and asked with a smile, “Do I look good?”

There was a dim lamp turned on in the bedroom. The light fell on the straight bridge of his nose and cast shadows on his deep features. Light and dark played across his face, which looked like a sculptor’s proud work, and the small red mole at the end of his eye made his face suddenly come alive.

“Look good,” Lu Qi murmured, touching his eyelashes. His beautiful deer-like eyes were full of bright, unabashed love. “Mu Nanqiao, you’re really so good-looking……”

The big fox’s eyes narrowed dangerously. Pulling Lu Qi’s wrist down a little, he placed those soft fingertips on his slightly cool lips. Mu Nanqiao moved his lips and placed Lu Qi’s fingertips into his mouth, lightly rubbing his teeth.

His fingertips were wrapped in something hot, moist, and soft. Lu Qi’s heartbeat suddenly accelerated so violently that it gave him the illusion of his chest going numb.

Mu Nanqiao released his fingertips and leaned forward to kiss the side of his face, sliding gentle kisses along his jawline little by little. Unknowingly, Lu Qi was led by him to lay on the pillow.

His thinking was stagnant and erratic under the influence of alcohol, but his senses were sharpened. Lu Qi’s eyelids lowered half-mast, and under Mu Nanqiao’s ministrations, he hummed comfortably like a cat getting its belly rubbed.

Up to this point, these were all still areas of practice that he was familiar with. But today, Mu Nanqiao seemed to be particularly patient and restrained. Lu Qi was about to finish several times, but Mu Nanqiao didn’t let him, coaxing him in a low voice.

Lu Qi couldn’t help but cry. “Don’t…..don’t you know what to do next? Do you need me to teach you…..”

The big fox was excited enough to wag his tail.

Although Lu Qi was usually very frank and direct, Xiao Lu’s level of frankness after drinking had obviously increased by another degree, and could be called enthusiastic.

“Okay, ah…..” His voice was low and hoarse, with a doting smile. “Then you teach me.”

“First…..want that…..” Thinking of something, Lu Qi grabbed Mu Nanqiao’s randomly moving hand and said with reddened eyes: “I forgot to buy…..”

“I bought it.” Mu Nanqiao kissed the tip of his nose. “Baby, just tell me where you put the 8-pack you bought.”

What followed entered the blind spot in Lu Qi’s knowledge. It was a bit difficult at first. Lu Qi kicked out, and his ankle was caught again. Such was the discomfort that he immediately sobered up, hugging Mu Nanqiao’s neck and licking it softly, like a kitten that hadn’t been weaned.

Mu Nanqiao also didn’t feel comfortable, the veins on his forehead protruding. He continued to coax in a low voice and kiss him tenderly, and it took a long time before he could continue a little bit.

After a while, Lu Qi took a small breath and cried pitifully: “You said you wouldn’t…..again…..you lied to me!”

The big fox immersed in him just smiled. His curved eyes were full of love and satisfaction, and his sexiness made a person unable to take their eyes away.

This night, autumn in Shanghai was coming to an end, and there was frost on the window. The room was so hot that Lu Qi couldn’t breathe. Once the initial discomfort wore off, the excruciating drunkenness was like drinking another bottle of alcohol.

As he was drunk, a voice in his ear spoke a passionate and emotional “Деткa,” and the person being called felt like he was laying on a cloud, floating erratically with the wind.

Semi-consciously, Lu Qi clutched the pillow and thought that when he got up in the morning, he should see how many 001’s were left in the box. Would this seductive vixen use them all up…..?

Help, ah!

. . . . . . .

It was cloudy the next day, and some gray sunlight shone through the half-drawn curtains. This weather was particularly suitable for sleeping under a blanket. Lu Qi hugged the quilt and huddled up warily in a small ball. He was clearly awake, but wouldn’t open his eyes.

He heard a beeping sound against his forehead, and then a mechanical voice said: temperature is normal.

It should be that Mu Nanqiao was taking his temperature.

With difficulty, Lu Qi opened his eyes just a slit. Just as he saw Mu Nanqiao’s blurry form, his vision was blocked by a cool towel.

His sleepiness had dissipated a lot by now, and Lu Qi asked blankly: “What are you doing?”

When he opened his mouth, he was taken aback to find that his voice was hoarse.

Recalling some intermittent memories, Lu Qi felt his exposed ears outside the towel warm. He had cried out so embarrassingly last night that his voice was still hoarse today. It was fortunate that Mu Nanqiao had covered his eyes, otherwise he would want to sew himself into the quilt.

What free gift with the potatoes. Thinking back to it, he was so embarrassed that he tried to dig a hole into the bed with his toes.

He seemed to hear a chuckle, satiated and lazy, like a large predatory animal that had eaten and drank its fill.

Mu Nanqiao cleared his throat and turned the towel over again.

“Lu Baby, your eyes are swollen.” As he spoke, he wanted to laugh again, so he asked teasingly: “Детка, are you made of water? It seemed like there was no end to the flow last night.”

Then he added, making the matter worse by trying to cover it up: “I’m talking about the tears, of course.”

Lu Qi: ……

Someone come and take this vixen away! He was embarrassed to death, ah!

It was unknown if his shouts could be heard. Mu Nanqiao’s mobile phone rang, and he held Lu Qi’s towel in one hand while answering the phone with the other. Due to his closeness, Lu Qi could hear Talia’s beautiful Russian voice through the receiver.

Lu Qi understood a few sporadic words, and was so shocked that he floundered into a sitting position. This affected his waist and hamstrings, causing him to gasp in pain.

The towel fell onto the quilt, and a small ice pack fell out. Mu Nanqiao looked at him helplessly and placed the towel back in his hand, telling him to cover his eyes to reduce the swelling.

Lu Qi covered one eye and tried to open the other one wider, mouthing out: Is Auntie coming?

Mu Nanqiao nodded and said into the phone: “Mom, Xiao Lu is very well. You had better accompany Dad to rehab more often. Don’t go out of your way to come up, the floor is too high…..”

“There is an elevator, I’m not going to climb up,” Talia said in Chinese. “I brought some Russian handicrafts for Lu Baby, and I’ll take a look at his wound by the way. Why are you so busy?”

Mu Nanqiao: ……

“Oh…..” Talia came to a sudden realization and asked, “Is it a bad time?”

Mu Nanqiao looked as calm as if he was drinking soy milk for breakfast. “En, he’s tired from last night…..”

“It’s not a bad time!” Xiao Lu wanted to save face, and interrupted the words of this shameless fox. He leaned over to the receiver and said in a failed attempt to divert her attention, “Auntie, come on up!”

“Xiao Lu, I’ll come over another day.” Talia was all smiles. “There will be a men’s clothing release in two days. I’m going to the show, and I’ll get you two sets of clothes there. I won’t come up today.”

Mu Nanqiao didn’t forget to tell his mother: “When you go to look at male models, you’d better take Dad with you, otherwise he’ll make trouble for you when you come back.”

Talia haha’d a few times, told Mu Nanqiao to take care of Lu Qi, and then hung up the phone.

Lu Qi: ……

He felt that he had lost all face.

With a groan, he buried his face in the pillow and said in a muffled voice: “How much does a ticket to Mars cost? I can’t live on Earth anymore.”

Mu Nanqiao chuckled. He reached to pull him out, lowering his head to look into his eyes. They were still a little swollen, but much better. He touched Lu Qi’s thin eyelids and said in a low voice: “I love you. Isn’t it normal for us to do this kind of thing? Why are you so shy?”

Early in the morning, he heard his boyfriend’s casual confession. Lu Qi’s cheeks felt hot. He slowly sat up and hugged Mu Nanqiao, rubbing his cheek against the big fox’s excellent jawline.

“I love you too…..” Lu Qi whispered: “I know it’s normal, but I still feel a little embarrassed. Cough…..”

He leaned close to Mu Nanqiao’s ear, and like the buzz of a small mosquito, said: “Last night, I actually…..felt really good.”

“Don’t flirt with me so early in the morning.” Mu Nanqiao patted his butt. “Okay, let’s apply some medicine.”

Lu Qi let him go immediately and held his pants, shaking his head. “I’ll do it myself!”

Mu Nanqiao didn’t insist. He left the ointment and went out to make breakfast for Lu Qi.

As soon as he went out, Lu Qi held the small tube of ointment and rolled over. He reached for the small bedside drawer and found a small box, taking it out to count them.

There were three left.

He had to hide them.

. . . . . . .

After breakfast, Lu Qi reclined in bed to draw a customer commission with washed cherries in one hand. Mu Nanqiao was working from home today, and was holding a video conference in the study. His voice could be faintly heard speaking in English. Lu Qi quietly started a live broadcast, and within three minutes, the other person’s English paused and his Governor came online.

Lu Qi: ……

Boss Mu, if you slack off on the job and watch others draw dirty pictures, will your partners on the other side of the ocean know?

The whole morning passed like this. When Mu Nanqiao finished his work, Lu Qi was still live broadcasting. He pushed the door open and came in, leaning over to take a look. Then he bent down toward Lu Qi’s ear and asked, “Baby, what do you want to eat for lunch? Nothing spicy.”

Lu Qi thought for a moment and whispered: “Heat up the leftover beef brisket from yesterday, and then you can make whatever you like. I’m not picky about food.”

Mu Nanqiao kissed his dimple and said with a smile: “Okay, that’s my good baby.”

He had changed into a more formal shirt for the meeting, and had to change it before cooking. The house clothes he had taken off last night were placed on the chaise lounge covered in plush cushions next to the bed. Mu Nanqiao undid his buttons with one hand and took off his shirt with his back to Lu Qi.

Lu Qi bit into a cherry and looked up.

That back view with broad shoulders and a narrow waist was undoubtedly pleasing to the eye. It was just that the scratches on that tight back were very obvious.

Choking on half a cherry, Lu Qi blushed as he coughed.

“Why are you eating in such a hurry? Are you afraid I’ll snatch it?” Mu Nanqiao came over with his house clothes and patted his back. “How are you? Are you choking?”

“Cough…..I’m…..I’m fine…..” Lu Qi wiped away the moisture at the corners of his eyes from coughing. He whispered with evasive eyes: “You…..put some medicine on your back…..”

“Oh…..” Mu Nanqiao smiled meaningfully. “But I can’t reach my back. Please help me, Wife Xiao Lu.”

This should indeed be Lu Qi’s responsibility. Although there were only a few places where the skin was broken, Lu Qi still used a cotton swab dipped in iodine to carefully sterilize them. When he was about to finish, Lu Qi’s phone vibrated.

If the message was someone else’s, Lu Qi might have finished treating Mu Nanqiao’s wounds before replying, but the message was from his dad.

So Lu Qi held the cotton swab with one hand and checked the message with the other.

Lin Chunhe had sent a picture of Lu Fangshu.

The setting sun shined in through a window, enveloping the reading woman in warmth. She was sitting in a clinic room full of greenery, reading a book titled “Psychological Analysis of Homosexuality.”

There was peace on her face that Lu Qi had not seen in many years. It was unknown if she had seen Lin Chunhe’s “study notes,” but there was even a faint smile on her lips.

Lin Chunhe also sent a message: 

[Xiao Qi, come home at the end of the year and bring your boyfriend back with you.]

Come home…..

Bring Mu Nanqiao with him…..

At that moment, Lu Qi felt as if a jar of cream had been poured into his chest, sweetly and lightly filling him up.

Boss Mu was still unclothed, waiting for the medicine to be applied, but the person behind him was silent. He looked back with a strange expression and was hit by the deer rushing toward him. He lost his balance and fell onto the soft quilt with Lu Qi in his arms.

Before he could react, Lu Qi lowered his head and mwah, kissed him very loudly.

Mu Nanqiao laughed and pinched Lu Qi’s earlobe. “What made you so happy?”

Lu Qi’s eyes were curved and bright, full of sunlight, and he lowered his head to kiss him again.

“Your big gold bracelet…..” he said with a smile, “I’ve got it!”
