When the food reserves become my wife

Chapter 144

When Liao Chi woke up early in the morning, he only felt back pain.

He frowned, and slowly turned over in pain. He was tossed too hard yesterday, and a night's rest would only make his body's reaction more apparent—now even the hairs of his hair were clamoring for exhaustion.

With his eyes closed, he subconsciously searched for the heat source in the bed according to his habit, but he reached out and found nothing.

But the slightly wrinkled sheets were warm, Liao Chi struggled to open his eyes, and saw the familiar figure sitting on the edge of the bed.

The man was naked from the upper body, with extremely smooth muscle lines on his sturdy wheat-colored back, dark hickey marks made by himself on his neck, and blood marks from fingernails scattered around his shoulder blades.Liao Chi closed his eyes again in relief, and asked lazily with a nasal voice: "What time is it?"

The man didn't answer, and the surrounding was so quiet that there was only the ticking of the hands of the clock.Liao Chi had no choice but to open his eyes again, and called softly, "Lin Xuqing?"

The person sitting on the edge of the bed turned his head when he heard the sound, and there was a completely unfamiliar expression on the handsome face he was very familiar with——

Calm and indifferent, perhaps with a hint of guilt.

Liao Chi had never seen such an expression on Lin Xuqing's face. That big boy was always enthusiastic and hearty, always guarding him like a big golden retriever, so he keenly noticed something was wrong at the first glance.

Liao Chi pulled the slipped quilt above the collarbone, sat up slightly and asked alertly, "Who are you?"

"Lin Xuqing" heaved a sigh of relief, he had been wondering how to explain to Liao Chi before, and finally he was no longer entangled, showing a gentle smile: "Mr. Liao."

Mr. Liao.

Liao Chi only felt a bang, and the whole sky seemed to have collapsed, making his brain go blank.

Am I still dreaming?He thought in a daze, and pinched himself hard, it hurt.

Even though Lin Xuqing had vaccinated him before, when the "disaster" came, he still inevitably fell into panic.

His lover fell into a deep sleep, and the person controlling his body at this time was an outsider who occupied the magpie's nest.

Liao Chi felt that he should be angry, but in fact, he had nothing in his heart except dazed and extreme panic.

After a long time—maybe not too long, he finally regained the ability to speak, and asked hoarsely, "Are you Lin Jinyuan?"

"Yes." The outsider politely kept a distance from him, because they were both completely naked in the sex last night.But on Lin Xuqing, no, on Lin Jinyuan's face, there was no embarrassment at all.

He is so calm, as if he has transcended the mundane world.The appropriate softness between the eyebrows and eyes is like the wind and moonlight on a spring night, just like the handsome young man depicted in ancient story books.

Liao Chi never thought that there would be a day when Lin Xuqing's face would make him feel as gentle as jade. The most suitable expression for him should be a warm and silly smile, not the one in front of him.Liao Chi felt dizzy for a moment, but he quickly adjusted his emotions and forced himself to calm down.

"The clothes are in the closet. The weather has warmed up recently, and that thin beige windbreaker is just right." Seeing that Lin Jinyuan was about to get up, Liao Chi finally couldn't hold back, and said, "Before putting on clothes, I suggest you take a bath first. Last night I washed it myself, but he didn't."

Lin Jinyuan paused, nodded at him, and walked into the bathroom with some uncoordinated movements. Although he used this body to cut off one of Mo's arms in Donghai, it will take a while to get used to it completely.

The bathroom door was gently closed, and Liao Chi sat stiffly for a while, until the sound of running water could be heard.He lay back suddenly, rolled to the place where Lin Xuqing fell asleep last night, buried his face in his pillow, and took a deep breath.

The remaining body temperature has not dissipated, and his nose is the most familiar smell. Liao Chi wants to cry, but he can't shed a single tear from his dry eyes.

Liao Chi touched the mobile phone on the bedside table, and sent a message to Gu Chuan: "Lin Jinyuan is awake."

He then found out Jin Ning's contact information and wrote: "Lin Jinyuan woke up, what should I do."

His fingers hesitated for a second on the send button, and Liao Chi deleted the second half of the sentence. He and Jin Ning were familiar, but no matter what, he was still not used to asking others for help.

Putting down his phone, Liao Chi got up and found the clothes he was going to wear today from the closet. His body was almost ruined by Lin Xuqing yesterday, and his body still clinging to unknown liquid was lying pitifully on the cold floor.

After tidying himself up, he moved his sore arms, found a complete set from underwear to windbreaker, and put them neatly at the end of the bed where Lin Jinyuan could see them as soon as he came out.

Rubbing the clothes he bought for his lover, Liao Chi resisted the urge to rush into the bathroom and ask Lin Jinyuan to return Lin Xuqing, stood up and walked out of the bedroom.

After washing up in the other bathroom, he walked into the kitchen, suddenly feeling so empty that it was almost maddening.

Usually at this time, Lin Xuqing would stand where he was standing now and prepare breakfast for the two of them.

Liao Chi raised his hand and pressed the sore forehead, looked around, every corner of the house was filled with memories that belonged to the two of them alone, he looked away from the newly bought dishwasher, knowing that no one would wash dishes today up.

Because no one will run with him in the morning.

Liao Chi felt it was difficult to breathe, so he sat down on the sofa with a tense face, tightly clutching the shirt at his heart.He pressed down hard, as if such pressure on the heart would make him more comfortable.

The sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and after a while, Lin Jinyuan came out of the bedroom, wearing exactly the clothes Liao Chi had prepared.He obviously has a familiar body and face, but when Lin Jinyuan walked towards him, Liao Chi could clearly tell that he was no longer that person.

Lin Jinyuan's graceful movement like a banished fairy makes it easy to have a good impression of him, but it's a pity that Liao Chi doesn't have that kind of intention at all, his eyes are full of subtle complaints about Lin Jinyuan, an outsider.

—Why did you choose him?

There are so many people in the world, why did you choose the one I love?

He has always been an extremely insecure person, because he is afraid that the stopped elevator will suddenly fall. Every time he walks out of the elevator, he is afraid. He is awakened by nightmares at night and never dares to go back to sleep. When he was younger, he even dared not go alone. The bathroom, it always reminded him of blood all over the walls and cold corpses.

Until Lin Xuqing recklessly broke into his dream driven by instinct.

He regarded him as the only straw, and desperately clung to him, regardless of the fact that this unknown person might have other purposes.

I can give you anything you want, as long as you make me free from fear.

He yearns for the vigorous breath of life in him. Whether he is a helpless and weak boy in his dream, or a glamorous CEO in the eyes of outsiders, he hopes that such fresh breath can infect him and help him get out of the dark swamp of childhood. Come out.

He sold his soul to the devil, but still hopes for redemption.

Lin Jinyuan sat across from him, his hair was still dripping with water, dripping on his collar to form small dots, Liao Chi took the towel and was about to cover his head subconsciously, he realized halfway, raised his hand halfway in the air He paused.

"Wipe it off." He handed the towel to Lin Jinyuan, and turned his face away from him.Lin Jinyuan took it and said thank you politely, and rubbed his hair a little awkwardly.

Lin Jinyuan has lived for thousands of years, and his hair has never been so short. Although he can see the world through Lin Xuqing's eyes, he still feels strange, and other people's bodies also make him feel very uncomfortable-compared with him before, ordinary The human body is still too fragile, and he must be extremely careful in every move.

Fortunately, Lin Xuqing was [-]% similar to him in appearance, which slightly eased the sense of disobedience in his heart.Lin Jinyuan wiped his hair until it was half dry, put down the towel, and whispered to Liao Chi who was staring at the floor in a daze: "I'm sorry, but I hope you can understand, this is a last resort."

He is not used to the way of speaking in modern Chinese, so he speaks very slowly.Liao Chi came back to his senses, raised a smile so faint that it was almost imperceptible, shook his head and said: "It's okay, this is also his choice, I believe him."

Lin Jinyuan was really relieved. Liao Chi's understanding made him feel very comfortable. He was not good at dealing with emotional problems, and he was afraid that he would hurt the heart of the person in front of him.After a few seconds of silence, Liao Chi asked, "Where are you going now?"

"Go to Gu Chuan first, we still have some things to discuss." Lin Jinyuan stood up and nodded slightly to him: "Then leave."

"Go slowly." Liao Chi sent him to the door, and saw Lin Jinyuan's hand pressed a shallow handprint on the wall of the corridor, his forehead jumped: "Can you use the elevator?"

"Yes." Lin Jinyuan tried his best to control his strength, pressed the button to wait for the elevator, and said to Liao Chi, "Thank you, and...sorry."

"It's ok."

The elevator door closed slowly in front of his eyes, and the figure of the man disappeared from sight. Liao Chi looked at the gradually shrinking numbers, took two steps back, and leaned against the wall.

He closed his eyes and let out a slow breath.

God knows how much effort he had just made so he didn't say anything to keep Lin Jinyuan. Even though he knew that his inner soul had changed, he still wanted to see him more, even if it was just a glance.

I don't know how long it will be until the next meeting.

Liao Chi leaned against the wall quietly, his fingertips lightly touching the handprint left by Lin Jinyuan's uncontrollable strength just now.He is too familiar with the size of these hands, they have held him countless times, touched him, and removed the most feared things for him.

Now, these hands are going to save the common people.

Liao Chi knew that he was not a saint, he only hoped to spend his life well.

Can't help but someone is willing to sacrifice their lives to save the world.

Lin Xuqing told him that a hundred years ago, Lin Jinyuan tried his best to wipe out the ashes and forcibly sealed the demon, leaving only a remnant soul, but now, Lin Jinyuan, who finally came back to life, has embarked on his old path without hesitation.

Liao Chi thought he was stupid, but then he thought about it, if everyone in the world is very smart, then there is really no hope.

After staying quietly for a while, feeling the pain in his chest gradually clear, Liao Chi opened his eyes, turned around and went home to get the car keys.

Sitting in the driver's seat, he thought, he must get used to driving himself again.
