More accurately speaking, twas the night before his birthday.
At 11:59pm.
Jun Yexuan wore his pajamas, laid casually in his bed and blanked out with his cell in hand.
After one minute, his cell’s black screen began to flash with light. At the same time, there was a loud knock on the door.
“Third brother! Happy birthday!”
“Third brother! Happy birthday!”
“Third brother! Happy 24th birthday!”
“...”
Jun Yexuan ignored him and concentrated on his notifications. He received 123 happy birthday notifications but none from the person on his mind.
Qi Yusen and Qi Yuyang ended up showing up in the hallway after being harassed by Mu Jinghang.
Qi Yuyang, “Can you stop yelling? Let others sleep!”
Qi Yusen, “Can’t you celebrate your birthday in the morning?! What if you wake Qingqing up?”
Mu Jinghang scratched his head, “Brother Qi, Qingqing has no class tomorrow. No way she is sleeping right now.”
Useless statement! He spoke loudly just to make sure Qiao Qing could hear him.
He fully believed that his third brother was waiting for Qingqing’s birthday wishes.
Qi Yusen narrowed his eyes, “Go back and sleep! Or you can go back to your own home!”
Mu Jinghang, “...”
“Third brother, I did my best.”
After My Jinghang went back to his room, Qi Yusen worriedly glanced over to Qiao Qing’s room then to Jun Yexuan’s room.
After he made sure there were no noises, he returned to his own room.
After a while, Qiao Qing went to Jun Yexuan’s door with her gift in a bag.
She was about to knock when she stopped herself and took out her cell instead.
She was about to text Jun Yexuan when the door by her opened.
Then, she felt a squeeze on her wrist as she was pulled into the room.
Inside the dark room, Qiao Qing was pressed against the wall.
Then, the suffocating kiss landed.
The kissing only stopped when her gift bag dropped onto the ground and generated a loud noise.
Jun Yexuan let her go and stared at the item on the ground. He spoke with disbelief and an overwhelming amount of happiness, “What is this? It’s for me?”
He turned on the light and kneeled down to unwrap the gift.
His attitude confused Qiao Qing.
“With your status and power, you can get anything you want. There’s no need to act like this.”
Jun Yexuan froze for a second and looked up at her, “You gave me this so I need to act like this.”
Qiao Qing blinked a few times and pursed her lips.
Jun Yexuan opened up the gift. When he saw what was inside, he smiled like a child.
Qiao Qing asked, “What are you smiling at?”
Jun Yexuan took out the belt and put his arms behind his back. He leaned into Qiao Qing and stared into her eyes, “Baby, do you know what it means to give a man a belt?”
Qiao Qing, “... No.”
Jun Yexuan’s eyes flickered, “I don’t need you to tie me down. I’m not running away.”
Qiao Qing, “...”
“If you have nothing then...” Qiao Qing was about to say bye when she saw what Jun Yexuan was doing. Instantly, she shut her eyes, “What are you doing!?”
Jun Yexuan threw his pajamas onto the bed and took out a pair of trousers. He raised his eyebrows, “You don’t want to see me wear the belt?”
Qiao Qing, “... You can just try it tomorrow.”
Jun Yexuan, “I can’t wait that long.”on
Qiao Qing, “...”
With her eyes shut, Qiao Qing did her best to forget what was happening and listened to the noise around her.
After all the clickity-clack stopped, she opened her eyes. Suddenly, with a “bam”, the room once again entered into darkness.
“Jun Yexuan... you... ah...” In the middle of her sentence, her entire body was being lifted and Jun Yexuan put her onto the bed.
The man’s magnetic voice whispered into her ear, “Don’t even think about leaving tonight.”
