Chapter 475: Plan to Win Back My Boyfriend by Playing the Green Tea 20

He was almost lost in it, letting Jin Chen kiss and play with his mouth.

Such an intimate gesture greatly pleased the excited He Yuchuan; his eyes half-open, he could clearly see Jin Chen's brows and eyes at this close range, the dense, slender lashes trembling slightly, making him look both serious and enjoying.

The heat made He Yuchuan's lips grow hot, his breathing gradually deepened, and the air seemed filled with a sweet fragrance.

His resisting movements seemed like an encouraging signal in Jin Chen's eyes.

This deep kiss did not last long.

He Yuchuan was ultimately overtaken by his inner reason, and he shoved the boy clinging to him away, his eyes flashing with faint annoyance.

"Jin Chen!"

Jin Chen, off guard, was pushed by him, slipped, fell to the ground, and his knee slammed hard into the table corner.

He let out a soft, hurried gasp, the lust in his eyes instantly draining as he raised a hand to clutch his injured knee.

A silence spread between them.

He Yuchuan felt utterly absurd, gradually calming down and not intending to hurt Jin Chen; seeing him fall, he instinctively moved to help.

But as he took a step forward, Jin Chen lowered his head and rose, ignoring the still‑aching knee and rushed into the bedroom.

"I'm sorry..."

Jin Chen's broken, weak voice finally came through the door crack, and then the bedroom door shut tight.

He Yuchuan stood frozen, somewhat at a loss.

He had pushed Jin Chen away himself and even injured him.

This realization made He Yuchuan's eyes redden, and he could no longer see any trace of his former lab aura.

After a long while, he lifted his arm, his fingertips trembling as they touched his lips; the strange sensation from before seemed to linger on his lips, and Jin Chen's enamored expression also seemed still before his eyes.

He Yuchuan took a deep breath, turned, and left the room.

That night, nobody felt good.

Returning to his own room, He Yuchuan took a cold shower, trying to wash away the thoughts that shouldn't be in his mind.

Yet even so, recalling the details of their kiss, his desire raged like a beast, constantly yearning to break free of its cage.

He Yuchuan had always been a person of low desire; even in his youth, he rarely lost control.

Later, when he was with Gu Yuanheng, he had no such thoughts at all—not even a kiss—and he didn't need that kind of emotional comfort, nor would he allow Gu Yuanheng to step even half a foot over the line.

He seemed forever to be a cool, self‑contained, aloof figure lofty above others.

Only in front of Jin Chen did his inner defenses repeatedly crumble, letting He Yuchuan realize he too was just an ordinary person who could need irrational moments.

In the dim, late‑night room, utterly sleepless, the muddled, drowsy He Yuchuan half‑leaned against the headboard, his hand under the covers, his mind full of memories of kissing Jin Chen that evening.

At the instant a white flash flickered in his mind, He Yuchuan gasped softly and, giving up, buried himself under the blankets.

He felt he could no longer regard Jin Chen as a little brother.

No matter who fell first, he had already been drawn in long ago, and now he was even more trapped, unable to free himself.

——

The next day, Jin Chen was awakened by the jingling prompt.

【Villain Heartthrob Value +10, cumulative 50!】

【Villain Heartthrob Value +10, cumulative 60!】

He slowly blinked his eyes, not quite understanding.

"Yesterday his wife wasn't very angry, so why did the Heartbeat Value go up?"

"But this is a good thing!"

Jin Chen rubbed his hair, threw off the covers and sat up, immediately drawn to the large bruise on his knee.

"Oh ho."

"I forgot to apply medicine yesterday."

【Goodness, Host, even if you wanted to play the suffering‑lover ploy, you didn't have to go this hard!】

0731 exclaimed.

Jin Chen resignedly pursed his lips.

"This time it really wasn't intentional."

"But we shouldn't waste this wound; it still hurts quite a bit."

He grimaced and poked it with his fingertip.

Then his Eyeball rolled around, and he stood up completely unaffected, running to the window to pull back the curtain.

If he remembered correctly, today was the last day of the extreme weather, and Gu Yuanheng should be about to breathe his last.

Outside the window, indeed, a rare cloudy sky appeared; the heavy rain that had fallen for about a week finally stopped, and although the thick dark clouds hadn't yet dispersed, one could already glimpse that perhaps clear skies lay ahead.

But on the lawn there were only servants clearing branches and wilted flowers, with no sign of Gu Yuanheng's corpse.

He scratched his head, wondering if his brother had already taken the body away early that morning.

With nothing exciting to watch, Jin Chen lay back down, intending to catch some more sleep.

Just as his eyes closed, a sharp bursting sound from 0731 rang in his mind.

【Aaaah, Host!】

Jin Chen opened his eyes expressionlessly, "【You'd better have something going on.】"

【You big pig's hoof! Gu Yuanheng! He's alive again! No…… he actually didn't die yesterday!】

Jin Chen suddenly sat up, "He's still not dead—this is really spooky."

He muttered, got up, changed clothes, left the bedroom, intending to go see for himself.

From the bedroom all the way to the main hall, nothing was out of the ordinary.

Jin Chen casually called out to a servant, "Where's Guangshu?"

"Young Master, Guangshu is accompanying the Young Master in interrogation; the Young Master says if you wake up, go eat first."

Interrogation, huh… Looks like he's really alive, and quite tenacious.

Jin Chen raised an eyebrow, didn't go to the dining hall as told, instead asked the servants for the interrogation location and headed straight there.

However, just as he reached the interrogation room door, Jin Chen suddenly recalled yesterday's events, and scratched his head in bewilderment.

How should he face He Yuchuan?

Better to pretend to be an ostrich; anyway, he surely doesn't want to bring it up himself.

He steeled himself, knocked on the door, and soon someone came to open it.

"Young Master?" The person opening the door clearly hadn't expected it to be Jin Chen, his expression full of surprise.

Recognizing him as the Zhuang Yuan security captain, Jin Chen returned a small smile, his voice low.

"I'm looking for… Guangshu."

The security captain glanced inside, obviously seeking He Yuchuan's consent.

"Let him in." He Yuchuan threw away the whip in his hand, pulled out a wet wipe to clean his hands, and adjusted his expression.

At the same time, he felt a rise of nervousness inside.

But he hadn't expected Jin Chen to have forgotten yesterday's events; upon entering, Jin Chen even avoided his gaze, his eyes moving from the prone Gu Yuanheng on the floor to Guangshu, without looking at him.

"Guangshu, I don't have the internal line number for the Zhuang Yuan doctor, and I don't know where to find someone."

Jin Chen, as if afraid of disturbing those inside, stepped to Guangshu's side and stood still, hesitating as he stated his purpose for coming.

"Doctor? Young Master, what's wrong with you?" Guangshu immediately grew nervous.
