ottenmindedbigsis [Translator] Hello~ rottenmindedbigsis here~13-16 minutes

Shen Liang unbuttoned Shao Qinhan and tried to help him take off his shirt gently, but he felt it was no good and hesitantly withdrew his hand.

“You…. take it off yourself.” Shen Liang turned away, feeling strange in his heart. xstdXB

Shao Qinhan looked back at him, dropped his head slowly, and took off his clothes.

Hesitating for a moment, he threw the clothes aside.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

“Done…” Said Shao Qinhan.

Shen Liang heard his mosquito voice, and the tips of his ears twitched slightly, then turned around. He raised his hand to remove the head shower, and adjusted the temperature, before aiming the hot water at Shao Qinhan. z4vXNt

“Shhh-”

The two of them were instantly drenched. The difference is that Shen Liang is wearing clothes, while Shao Qinhan is naked.

It seems a bit unfair.

Shao Qinhan wiped the water off his face, “Why don’t you get naked?”

Shen Liang gave him a blank look, “It’s you who wants to bathe, not me.”

Further…

“Do you understand what it means for two people to be naked?”

Shen Liang said nothing, but he seemed to have said it all, his eyes were so meaningful and obscene that they might as well be mosaics. 157VuD

Shao Qinhan’s heart pounded as he was looked at with those eyes. He took a step back, only to be grabbed by Shen Liang and hear him say softly, “Put it on my shoulders.”

Shen Liang repeated, “Put your hands on my shoulders so they don’t get wet.”

Whether it was because of the hot water, I don’t know, but Shao Qinhan’s originally pale skin got a thin layer of red. He slowly brought his right hand and hesitantly put it on Shen Liang’s shoulder, He was unexpectedly obedient.

Shen Liang squeezed out some shampoo and washed Shao Qinhan’s hair while lamenting; if Shao Qinhan had looked like this when the hero save the beauty today, he would not have frightened Shen Yan. eSBGtd

Shen Liang’s long slender fingers intertwined with Shao Qinhan’s hair, gently but without losing strength. Casually chattering, “Hey, do you always fight like this?”

Shao Qinhan looked at him in the fuzzy heat, “How?”

Shen Liang curved his lips and said, “Fiercely.”

It was clear which pot he didn’t open and which pot he didn’t lift. TvcUfD

Shao Lihan looked at him, “Fierce? Do you want to try what it means to be fierce?”

Shen Liang didn’t want to at all. He rinsed Shao Qinhan’s hair without looking at him, “Can you be gentler? My brother likes the gentle ones. He’s afraid of blood, yet you only made it so bloody.”

Shao Qinhan stopped talking, put his right hand on Shen Liang’s shoulder, and pinched it.

“Hiss…” RZMeL

Shen Liang sucked in cold air, as he had not anticipated such a move. He reached out and grabbed Shao Lianhan’s waist, pulling the person towards his body tightly, “Did I invite you to mess with me?”

In an instant, he was pressed tightly.

Shao Lianhan panicked for a moment, inexplicably remembering the night they were intimate, “What are you doing?”

Some people seem to be very domineering, but in reality, they are as simple as a blank sheet of paper when it comes to certain aspects, and probably have never held hands with another person. K7kHsV

For a moment, Shen Liang felt that the one in his arms was not Shao Qinhan, but a scared little white rabbit, “…nothing.”

Shen Liang, “…you just said it doesn’t hurt.”

Shao Qinhan, “It does now.”

Shen Liang looked up, but was caught off guard and met Shao Qinhan’s head on, their eyes met in the air and inexplicably became ambiguous in the warm bathroom. V8haJ4

Shen Liang could only raise his hand to help him dry himself, rubbing through the soft towel.

The look of Shao Qinhan letting himself dry was soothing. They were already very close, and with Shao Qinhan’s right hand still resting on Shen Liang’s shoulder, they looked even closer.

Was there any difference between hugging and holding?

There seemed to be none. PleD73

Only when Shen Liang finished drying his hair did he realize that his current posture was a bit out of limits, although what should be out of limits had long since been out of limits. He put down the towel halfway, and once he lowered his head, he touched the tip of Shao Qinhan’s nose.

Their breaths intertwined densely, tickling his heart. Shen Liang stared at him and said, “I’m done…”

The fact that Shao Qinhan was wearing no clothes and had his head bowed, made him hear an inaudible, emotionally muffled sound as he heard him nod.

Shen Liang took the other towel and wrapped it around him, and suddenly asked, “Do I have to carry you outside?” LJUVcD

Shao Qinhan was stunned, “What?”

As soon as he finished speaking, his body suddenly felt a weightless sensation, his pupils shrank slightly and he unconsciously squeezed his fingertips, only to find that he had already been embraced by Shen Liang.

They had hugged before, but this time they were both awake and always felt that the meaning was different.

Shen Liang did not look at Shao Qinhan, he came out of the bathroom and bent down to put him on the bed. He put his hands on Shao Qinhan’s side, looking into his eyes with the tip of his hair dripping water. 5IHCom

Shen Liang’s body was wet with his clothes clinging to his torso. He looked at the towel Shao Qinhan was wrapped in and said, “Remember to dress, don’t catch a cold”.

A drop of water fell impartially on Shao Qinhan’s face. He blinked unconsciously, with his thick and thin eyelashes, he looked a little dazed, “Mmm…”

Seeing this, Shen Liang didn’t know why, he raised his hand and rubbed his head slowly, then stood up and left.

With a soft click, the door closed and the room was silent again. 3K0e65

Shen Liang’s clothes were so wet that he could squeeze out the water. After returning to his room, he was about to take a shower, but he discovered that the shower was broken, so he had to take a shower in the guest room downstairs.

Nanny Zhang was watering the plants on the balcony, and when Shen Liang passed behind her, she felt for a moment that she looked like her own mother. Probably all the old people under heaven are similar.

“Nanny Zhang, the shower in my room is broken.”

Nanny Zhang took the time to look up and replied, “Fine, I’ll call someone to fix it tomorrow.” XgPrZ2

Shen Liang finished showering and went to wash his clothes, leaving at exactly 10:30. He wore a casual white shirt, and a towel around his neck and didn’t bother to dry his hair, so he went back to his room.

Shen Liang thought he had probably gotten dazed in the shower and might even have gotten into the wrong room. As soon as he pushed open the door, he saw Shao Qinhan sitting on the bed, and immediately jumped back.

“Sorry, I’m in the wrong room.”

He closed the door with a click, and only three seconds later realized that something was wrong. This was his room. nv 2Al

Shen Liang opened the door again, entered the room, and looked at Shao Qinhan suspiciously, “You got the wrong room, this is my room.”

Shao Qinhan was sitting on the corner of the bed with his hands on his knees, and calmly said, “It is my room.”

Shen Liang walked over and patted the pile of yellow books on the bedside table, “The books are all mine.”

Shao Qinhan looked at him and raised his eyebrows coolly, “I bought the whole land here”. N6mESg

Shen Liang, “…”

Well, you’re rich and cool.

Damn it, when I go back and check the manuscript, I’ll write Shao Qinhan as poor.

Shen Liang dried his hair with the towel around his neck, “I let you stay, I’ll sleep downstairs.” iB3sWp

But Shao Lianghan threatened, “You dare to leave?”

Shen Liang didn’t want to leave either, the guest room downstairs was not as comfortable as his. He sat on the edge of the bed with his knees slightly bent and leaned his arms on it, smiling lazily and seductively, “What, you want to sleep with me?”

Shao Qinhan clasped his knees, occupying only a small space. He unconsciously played with the gauze wrapped around his palm, looking at the patterns on the sheets, without saying a word. He occupied the bed like a slithering snake.

Without realizing it, Shen Ling looked at Shao Qinhan, but his eyes stopped there.  Due to the dim light, the current scene overlapped with the story in the book for an instant, causing people to be a little dazed. oZdNbe

Shen Liang suddenly remembered the ending of Shao Qinhan…

In the novel, when all the main characters or supporting characters are reaping the benefits of happiness and prosperity, he is the only one who is trapped in the mental hospital, crazy and inhuman.

Readers say Shen Liang is cruel, and Shen Liang himself felt that he might have been a little mean. But Shao Qinhan was a fictional character, how could a fictional character be taken seriously?

But the fact is that this person just appeared in front of himself, real and alive. He would get angry, he would bleed, and he would hurt himself. WU2u7P

He could wield his pen all he wanted in the book, but when the characters appearing in it became real one day, the suffering deliberately inflicted on them would become a sin.

Shen Liang had some mocking thoughts at first, but they suddenly dissipated. He patted the empty seat beside him, then opened his arms to Shao Qinhan and said, “Hey…”

Then he asked, “Do you want a hug?”

Shao Qinhan’s body shuddered at his words and looked at him. ZoT6Dd

Shen Liang’s movements remained unchanged, maintaining that posture, “Come, I will hug you till you sleep.”

In his heart, he felt that Shao Qinhan would not come, but after a moment of silence, the other party silently came into his arms, wrapping his hands around his knees, trying to shrink into a ball.

Shao Qinhan was too insecure.

Shen Liang took him in his arms and sighed, then slowly tightened his embrace, they fit perfectly. The light fragrance of shower gel on their bodies mingled, regardless of you or me. mVAd7k

Shao Qinhan’s tense nerves relaxed.

Shen Liang leaned on the top of his head, feeling only the softness of his hair, and after a while, he began to speak, “Shen Yan is shy and afraid of blood. Next time you want to hit someone, do it behind his back, not in front of him.”

Shen Liang was educating him.

Shao Qinhan, however, did not care to listen, closed his eyes, and gloomily said, “I am also afraid of blood…” 910 ik

Shen Liang did not hear very well, “What?”

Shao Qinhan said nothing more, and closed his mouth, “Nothing.”

Shen Liang stroked his hair. His palm was dry and warm, a while later, he suddenly asked, “Do you really like Shen Yan very much?”

Shen Liang was used to writing dog blood novels, in which the characters would only love for love, but they might not truly love, because even the author himself didn’t understand what love is. BrZKYc

In the original plot, Shao Qinhan fell in love with Shen Yan only because a person who had been in darkness for a long time suddenly saw the first glimmer of light in his life and instinctively wanted to reach out to it.

But now, he was curious to know what was going on in Shao Qinhan’s heart.

Shen Liang was so distracted when he asked this question that he did not notice the moment of confusion and dismay that passed over Shao Qinhan’s face after asking this question.

Do you really like Shen Yan very much? ngb4Lr

When Shao Lianghan heard these words, his brain suddenly went blank, he tried his best to search for an answer for Shen Liang, but he found nothing, as if…

It was as if the other person was mentioning an unimportant stranger.

Shao Qinhan’s brain ached, he felt like a puppet that had to follow a certain path, there was a voice telling him: you should like Shen Yan, you must like Shen Yan, you must get him.

That’s all. KuzFUj

That’s all, just…

Shao Qinhan could not find an answer. He covered his head with his hand, suppressing the shrill pain that hit his brain in a burst, then frowned and stifled a muffled groan. And he said in annoyance, “I like…”

It should be… that I like, shouldn’t it?

zplwM8

Shen Liang didn’t doubt this answer too much, because that’s what the book says, “Good.”

He added, “I will help you.”

After Shen Liang finished speaking, he looked at the time and found that it was almost eleven o’clock. He lay down with his arms around Shao Qinhan, then avoided his wound, squeezed the person in his arms, and said, “Go to sleep, it’s getting late.”

His voice was low and magnetic as if he was coaxing a child to sleep. 8adeyv

Shao Qinhan didn’t know why, but he suddenly felt his heart beating very fast and violently as if it was going to burst out of his mouth the next second.

He lifted his head from Shen Liang’s arms with some effort, ”I can’t sleep.

Shen Liang; you can’t but I can. He squeezed Shao Qinhan in his arms, “You must sleep.”

Shao Qinhan wiggled and, for the first time, was not angry at Shen Liang’s rude attitude, “Why?” b6hFM3

Shen Liang opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling, he didn’t know what had come to his mind when he heard those words. He was silent for a few seconds before saying, “Because staying up late will cause sudden death.”

Shao Qinhan, “…”

The author has something to say.

Shen Liang: Concentrate on health for a hundred years, I drink dog blood, you drink tea, cheers.
