Yan Han finally fell asleep in the warm pool.
He was so tired that no matter the environment or his mood, he could sleep soundly for a while, so even after Brother Lin had just finished showering him with sweet words, and even though the older brother was aroused one second, he could fall asleep the next. He seemed just a bit carefree.
Later, worried that he would stay in the water too long, but not wanting to wake him, Lin Jianlu reached out and picked up the sleeping boy.
The boy had a well-proportioned frame; although he was male and had a heavy frame, he wasn’t very fleshy. With a little effort, he could easily be carried in a princess carry.
However, just as he was being lifted, Yan Han’s eyes suddenly opened. His gaze, unlike that of a young boy, suddenly became sharp, carrying a ruthlessness he usually suppressed.
But when he realized it was Lin Jianlu holding him, his eyes instantly returned to normal.
The next second, Yan Han felt like a freshly boiled shrimp, his whole body turning red.
“Holy crap, why are you carrying me?”
“You were asleep, I didn’t want to wake you,” Lin Jianlu said, steadily stepping out of the hot spring. He showed no intention of putting Yan Han down.
Not only that, he didn’t care about being soaked; he carried Yan Han back through the corridor to the small building and up to the second floor, leaving a trail of water stains indicating the direction their master had taken.
Yan Han: “…”
At this moment, he was only wearing his underwear; and the rest of his body was exposed.
Being carried like this, not only was he completely naked in front of Lin Jianlu, but large areas of their skin were also touching…
What’s worse, Lin Jianlu was actually carrying him like a princess?!
That was certainly less strenuous. The experience was also novel, but again… did he have no dignity?!
Yan Han coughed twice, “Um, put me down, I can walk by myself.”
But he only said it casually, and Lin Jianlu just listened without actually doing it.
In Big Brother Lin’s words, “Since I’ve already carried you, what’s the difference if I walk a little further?”
This…
Yan Han was speechless.
Of course, Lin Jianlu eventually had to put him down.
But he put him in the bathtub of the room where they had changed clothes earlier.
Yan Han: …
He automatically imagined himself taking a bath in the bathtub, and Lin Jianlu lying on the bed watching him. If he was a shrimp before, he had now become a crayfish. A crayfish with its shell on, stir-fried with chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns, such a bright red.
Although it turned out that he had imagined it too much this time.
After putting him down, Lin Jianlu said, “You wash here, I’ll go in and rinse off.”
Yan Han: “…”
Well, at least they didn’t bathe together in the end.
He had already rinsed off before getting into the tub and soaked for a long time, so he just needed to rinse off again.
After quickly washing himself up, Yan Han noticed that someone had already brought them clean clothes while he was soaking in the tub.
He also noticed that the sheets and blankets on the bed seemed different from when he arrived; it looked like they had been changed…
Lin Jianlu, as the host, was a clean freak, so his sheets and blankets were naturally different from those provided in the guest rooms.
“So, are we sleeping here tonight?” Yan Han asked as he got dressed when Lin Jianlu opened the shower door.
“Yes,” Lin Jianlu replied, “We’ll sleep here tonight, is there a problem?”
Yan Han glanced at the large double bed, thinking, “So, we’ll have to share a bed?!”
Although he wouldn’t do anything, since Lin Jianlu wasn’t an adult yet, and rules couldn’t be broken… he had never slept alone with anyone before!
Back in his original world, he had a group of brothers, and sometimes they would stay out late and need to stay together.
But those were all like communal sleeping quarters, several people lying together, sometimes chatting until dawn, so no one would have any ideas.
But now… the night would be long.
Yan Han sighed inwardly, then suddenly felt that maybe he was overthinking it. Although they were together, they had only just started holding hands. Maybe Big Brother Lin didn’t want to sleep with him.
So he wisely said, “Is there another room next door? Should I stay there?”
“?”
Lin Jianlu paused while drying his hair. Yan Han watched as water droplets slid down Big Brother Lin’s upper body and disappeared into the towel wrapped around his waist. He couldn’t help but swallow hard. “Then I’ll sleep in this room, and you’ll sleep next door?”
Lin Jianlu’s expression turned serious. “You don’t want to share a room with me?”
“No…”
Judging from Lin Jianlu’s words, it seemed that he had already accepted that they should share a room.
Although he didn’t know what Brother Lin was thinking, based on Yan Han’s experience over the years, he had never heard of such an “unspoken rule” as sleeping in the same room when dating. However, he quickly adjusted his thinking, followed Lin Jianlu’s train of thought, and jokingly said, “I was just thinking that even if we slept in the same room, we couldn’t do anything, and it would easily lead to people overthinking things. So it’s better to sleep separately.”
“Who said we couldn’t do anything?”
“??!”
After asking that, Lin Jianlu calmly walked to the sink next to the bathtub to dry his hair. From Yan Han’s angle, he could clearly see that Lin Jianlu’s back muscles were clearly well-developed; not particularly muscular, but very defined. Combined with the way he raised his arm to dry his hair, it looked quite beautiful…
So, Brother Lin deliberately brought him to the hot springs, and then deliberately suggested sleeping in the same room…
He had actually planned something all along?!
A sudden fire rose in Yan Han’s body from his tailbone, making his mouth dry.
As a gay man who had been single for twenty years, what could be more exciting than spending a romantic night with his boyfriend!
Yan Han rubbed his hands together expectantly, ready to flop onto the bed and wait for Big Brother Lin to come up to him.
However, Xiao Wu, who was never one to read the room, suddenly spoke up: “You need to put on skincare products after washing your face, how many times have I told you…”
Before Xiao Wu could finish speaking, Yan Han had already slipped into his dressing room and started applying skincare products.
Quick and easy!
However, as soon as he entered the portable dressing room, he suddenly remembered that he could have easily come back here to shower.
So… his embarrassment in the bathtub earlier was completely unnecessary!
He must have been completely blinded by Lin Jianlu’s charisma, which he exuded with every move!
But that didn’t matter anymore.
He slapped his face vigorously, applying toner, lotion, and eye cream in turn. Luckily, it was hot in the summer, so he needed lightweight skincare products and didn’t need to use face cream. Skipping a step like this saved him a lot of suffering!
After finishing, Yan Han wanted to leave, but Xiao Wu stopped him again, asking irritably, “What now?”
[It’s a date night, you should at least tidy yourself up a bit! At least blow-dry your hair!]
“Huh?”
He looked at Xiao Wu in surprise, not expecting this guy to be so intelligent!
Yan Han couldn’t help but praise, “When your system sent you to help me, I wondered what you could do.”
[…]
“Now it seems, Comrade Xiao Wu, you’re truly a good comrade of the people.”
[…]
After praising him, Yan Han picked up the hairdryer and styled his hair.
He was in this line of work; so this was no problem for him. He’d been diligently taking care of his skin lately, and he seemed even more handsome than before. His hair had grown longer, and his short, jet-black hair accentuated his perfectly handsome face. Combined with his uniquely cool expression, he was simply incredibly handsome.
Having finished all this, Yan Han returned to the room. Lin Jianlu had already finished drying his hair and was changing clothes.
