Chapter 49: Saving the Gentle Senior 25
Jin Chen's gentle coaxing let Shen Qingci gradually calm down.
He tiptoed, ignoring that they hadn't removed their clothes yet, tightly wrapped his arms around Jin Chen's neck, and offered his lips.
Jin Chen indulgingly slipped his arm around his lover's soft waist, drawing in the sweet fluids.
Outside the backstage changing room, people came and went.
Jin Chen suddenly had a mischievous idea.
He picked Shen Qingci up and walked toward the door.
"Mm."
Shen Qingci didn't know what he intended, but instinctively clung to his clothes.
But when he heard the noisy chatter and footsteps outside the door, a sense of embarrassment welled up belatedly.
"A-Chen... don't go out."
"Don't go out."
How could Jin Chen want others to see Shen Qingci's shy yet alluring appearance?
He lifted him up against the door panel, like holding a child, secured him with one hand, then lowered his head, burying his face in Shen Qingci's neck, and tore open his clothes with his teeth.
A chill hit his chest; Shen Qingci never imagined Jin Chen would dare do this in the changing room, his boldness was astonishing.
"A-Chen, don't... go back, go back again..."
Shen Qingci's breath hitched for a moment as he felt Jin Chen suck and lightly bite.
Stimulation and embarrassment mixed with an endless wave of pleasure, and Shen Qingci's body went completely limp.
But deep down he was still nervous.
He weakly lifted his arm to push him away, but the other hand grabbed it, raising and fixing it against the door panel, fingers interlaced.
"Bao Bao, don't be nervous; as long as you stay silent, no one will know."
Jin Chen's eyes were deep and dark, his voice low and hoarse as he whispered in Shen Qingci's ear; a tingling sensation spread from his ears to his limbs, like a tingling electric current.
He hooked his long leg, dragging the small stool to the door's edge, then gently placed Shen Qingci on it, his hands never stopping, even moving lower.
"Bao Bao, you look gorgeous today, especially like the moon—pure and bright."
Jin Chen teased him while speaking softly.
"Then you... still, still do it." Shen Qingci could hardly restrain himself, biting his own fingers, his eyes glazed.
"Defile the moon, imprint my mark on it, okay?"
Jin Chen's disheveled hair fell, his peach-blossom eyes smiling with deep affection, surging with tempting allure: "Let the moon belong only to me."
This line of his love talk was vulgar.
Yet it struck Shen Qingci's heart; originally, after the performance, hearing the audience's cheers had made him lose some sense of safety, prompting him to eagerly want more things to bind himself to Jin Chen.
Unaware, he had already fallen into Jin Chen's linguistic trap.
Shen Qingci suddenly embraced him fervently, his red lips moist, warm breath exhaling, scorching heart and soul.
When they emerged from the changing room, both of their clothes had already been changed.
Shen Qingci had completely lost his strength, letting Jin Chen hold him.
Jin Chen gathered both sets of clothes, packed them away, then held Shen Qingci as they left.
"The changing room..."
"It's fine; after the evening party ends, staff will clean each room."
Shen Qingci felt at ease, leaning on Jin Chen as he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
—
Jin Chen and Shen Qingci's mutual confession became the most-discussed topic at Imperial University before the summer break.
Lin Le, who had been the subject of everyone's talk, had gradually been forgotten.
Shen Qingci's Blackening Value had also been cleared to zero, the mission perfectly completed.
Afterwards he also never heard any more talk about Lin Le and Qi Ze.
After Lin Le woke up from the hospital, his whole person had changed.
His eyes were swollen, tears streamed when he saw light, red blotches covered his face and neck, his throat filled with tiny blisters that constantly oozed fluid, causing infection; the fibers that couldn't be expelled all entered his lungs and blood vessels.
He had been frightened by Jin Chen's actions to the point of being somewhat delirious, even uttering nonsense.
Mou Yuan, representing the Dance Troupe, visited the hospital to see Lin Le one last time before going abroad for further study.
Not deterred by his near-disfigured appearance, he carefully wiped his body clean and paid off the remaining hospital fees.
Finally, amidst Lin Le's furious roars, he left the ward.
Jin Chen "kindly" put up the money so the doctor only needed to restore Lin Le's appearance, ignoring his internal condition; after treatment, they had Lin Le taken away from the hospital.
He was taken to an underground entertainment venue.
With Jin Chen's intimidation, those tasked with watching him hardly left his side, giving Lin Le no chance to escape.
After several struggles and resistance, Lin Le even tried to contact Qi Ze.
Jin Chen knew about this and did not have anyone stop it.
Because he knew Qi Ze was currently unable to attend to himself.
When Qi Ze received Lin Le's phone call, he was at the home of his new fiancé's family.
He had not won the struggle against the illegitimate son, thus losing the Qi Family's inheritance rights.
Coincidentally, a young master from a family took a liking to him, and Father Qi actually made him a live-in son-in-law.
This had originally been considered a good thing.
But Qi Ze hadn't expected that this young master's temperament was extremely odd, suspicious and paranoid, and even perverted in matters of intimacy.
But if he didn't have this young master, he would be cast out penniless.
Qi Ze heard Lin Le's voice, dazed for a moment, recalling many things from when they got along.
But just then, the young master walked into the bedroom, heard the weak voice on the phone, and that person still called him Xiao Ze.
The young master's face changed abruptly, he immediately smashed the phone, glared at Qi Ze, and slapped him hard across the face.
Qi Ze felt humiliated inside, but could do nothing, and begged for forgiveness in a low, submissive voice.
Lin Le repeatedly sought help to no avail, and was forced to accept all of this.
Relying on his superb dance skills, he quickly became the venue's hot ticket, spending almost all day nearly naked, accompanying the Dage involved in underground black-market deals.
But the fibers remaining in his body were always a time bomb.
Before thirty, his body gradually weakened, he could no longer dance, and his once tight, youthful skin became waxy and saggy.
He finally died in the venue, the room hot and humid; when he entered, it was midsummer, and he died in midsummer.
And Jin Chen, in this world, likewise spent a lifetime accompanying Shen Qingci.
After they graduated from university, they went to Yingguo to obtain their marriage certificate; the wedding was held in a church, inviting many relatives and friends who sincerely blessed them.
Shen Qingci became an outstanding professional dancer, the student Miliya claimed abroad to be most satisfied with.
Jin Chen took over Jin Hongyun's multinational corporation, developing its business ever larger, yet never parted from Shen Qingci.
When Shen Qingci had a competition, he would bring his laptop to accompany her, working remotely.
When he needed to go on a business trip, he would explain to Shen Qingci that he could return home early and would never overstay.
On the day Lin Le died, Heaven's Way was utterly helpless, yet could not take its anger out on Jin Chen.
Only when he returned home did he stage a minor car accident; because of 0731, not even a scratch was made, yet it still made Shen Qingci worry excessively, even giving Jin Chen an excuse to act aggrieved and get touchy-feely at night.
Heaven's Way fumed, thunder crashing all night.
