Chapter 163 - Can’t Even Fault Him (1/2)

Qiu Ling and Jing Yi both froze. So … what now? Qiu Ling silently lifted his head and looked into Jing Yi's eyes. He certainly didn't want to stop!

He hugged his beloved and stroked his hair, gently pushing it back behind his ears. ”How about we forget we heard something and just continue?” He gave him a disarming smile and closed in again, pursing his lips.

Before he could take over Jing Yi's lips, a hand clasped over his mouth, though. Jing Yi shook his head and cleared his throat. ”Senior martial brother Qiu … get off, please.”

Qiu Ling lifted his brows. Whoa! One could actually still say 'senior martial brother' in such a way after kissing like that? He never would have expected such a thing!

”Senior martial brother”, reminded Jing Yi when he didn't get a response.

Qiu Ling smiled and tilted his head. ”Mn? What did you say, my love?”

”Get off, please.”

”Eh?” Qiu Ling tilted his head to the other side. ”It seems you weren't speaking loud enough. I couldn't quite catch that.”

Once again, someone knocked on the door and this time a male voice floated in: ”Xiao Yi! You're not up yet? It's our day for practicing the sword! Did you forget?”

Jing Yi frowned at Qiu Ling. He had always thought that this senior martial brother of his was a little weird but now he noticed for the first time just how shameless he was. ”Senior martial brother!”, he hissed and uneasily glanced at the door.

”Call me Qiu Ling!”

Jing Yi's brow twitched. ”If I do, will you get off?”

Qiu Ling smiled even more brightly. ”I'll consider it!”

Jing Yi took a deep breath. Alright. If that would make that guy move, then he'd do it. It wasn't like he was losing out just because he called him by his name. ”Qiu Ling. Please, get off now.”

”Ah!” Qiu Ling wrapped his arms around him and nuzzled Jing Yi's shoulder with his head. ”Say it again!” He loved hearing his name from his beloved's lips! Wasn't this just Jing He's way of telling him how much he loved him? Of course, someone as shy as his beloved wouldn't dare to speak his innermost thoughts aloud at just any moment. The atmosphere had to be right for that. Thus, he could only resort to showing his love in a more roundabout way.

Ah, how nice, getting a love confession early in the morning!

Jing Yi frowned. Hadn't that guy just promised to get off when he called him by his name? Why was he still lying on top of him?!

He wanted to question him but just then, the voice from outside sounded again. ”Xiao Yi! Xiao Yi? Are you alright?” The faint sound of someone pacing up and down could be heard before the person stopped in front of the door again. ”I'm coming in!”

”No!” Jing Yi protested but it was already too late. Shao Hai had opened the door and, of course, he had seen them in this incriminating position.

Shao Hai stood there in the doorway, dumbstruck. What was going on? Why was his Xiao Yi lying in bed with another man? He looked at Qiu Ling, unable to figure out what was going on.

Qiu Ling gave him a smug look. See that? You might have gotten his first kiss in this life but I'll get everything else! I dare you to try to get close to him again!

Seeing that gaze, Shao Hai came out of his shock and pointed at Qiu Ling. ”Scoundrel! What are you doing with my Xiao Yi?!”

Qiu Ling slowly lifted his brows. ”Your Xiao Yi? And we're cuddling, can't you see?”

”You!” Shao Hai's hands shook. ”You …”

Qiu Ling smiled even more and rubbed his head on Jing Yi's chest, guiding Shao Hai's gaze to the half-opened robe of his friend.

Shao Hai gaped. That … That scoundrel was trying to take advantage of his Xiao Yi! ”I'll kill you!”

Qiu Ling blinked. ”What for?”

”Obviously because you've tried to take advantage of my beloved!”

”Hah?” Qiu Ling raised his brows. ”I don't know what you're talking about. Why would I want to take advantage of your beloved if I have someone as beautiful as Jing He at my side?”

Jing Yi's lips twitched. That guy still hadn't gotten his name right and neither had he gotten up! ”Senior martial brother Qiu. Why don't you get up to talk about that?”

”Ah, my love, don't worry. I won't just leave! I'll stay with you!” He bent down to kiss Jing Yi but Shao Hai finally charged at him.
