Chapter 146 - Truly Find Himself a Partner!
Oncoming is the dizzying male hormones, and the low-key seductive fragrance lingers on the tip of his nose. There were still water droplets on the honey-colored skin that had not been completely dried, and were hung sporadically on the attractive body. The white bath towel was loosely tied around the waist, blocking the view of the man’s lower body.
This is also the reason why Qin Lang asked his assistant to leave first – someone had obviously just finished taking a shower.
“Jiang Chengzhou?” Qin Lang looked at him and raised his eyebrows.
The man’s brows lit up with joy. His hands around Qin Lang’s waist tightened by two points, “You remember?”
Qin Lang pondered for a second, then raised the corners of his lips: “What?”
The man didn’t answer, a pair of overly seductive eyes carefully swept Qin Lang’s expression, in order to distinguish whether Qin Lang was just testing or really didn’t know anything.
It’s a pity that Qin Lang was tempted to tease, but then he thought that this person might have been waiting for him for a long time, so he couldn’t be ruthless. Before the other party could find the answer himself, he already gave the answer by himself: ” May I ask this gentleman, did I love you when I was eighteen?”
“Langlang…” The president, who was originally domineering and handsome with a MAX sexy and maturity, suddenly calls out the long-lost name in a low voice with a trembling choke in his voice.
Qin Lang’s heart also trembled. He frowned slightly, reaching out to touch the handsome face of the man, trying to brush away those little bit of sadness for him.
Jiang Chengzhou’s eyes reddened, at the same time, he also stretched out his hand to cover Qin Lang’s hand, actively pressing his face to rubbed Qin Lang’s palm, and then said, “I’m sorry…”
“No…” Qin Lang looked at the unfamiliar face in front of him, but he was no stranger. The various scenes he had planned on on the road suddenly turned into sensational scenes like this one, he didn’t expect it at all—after all, all he thought of was harmony.
Cough, sure enough, he really is not decent.
After rubbing his hand for a while, Jiang Chengzhou hugged him again. His bare skin was next to his face, which made him feel extremely reassured, as if he was finally sure that these were not dreams but real.
However, Qin Lang still ruined the atmosphere and said, “President Jiang, you’d better put on some clothes. Don’t catch a cold after posing for so long.”
“…” Jiang Chengzhou looked down at Qin Lang in his arms.
Qin Lang looked at him innocently and honestly.
President Jiang tenaciously continued the script he had prepared before, seamlessly connecting the sexy and mature boss with a charming image. He raised his eyebrows, his lips raised lightly: “Why wear, aren’t you going to take it off in a while?”
Qin Lang looked at him silently and couldn’t hold back his smile.
President Qin, who didn’t demolish president Jiang stage, was suddenly hugged horizontally. The man took him into the bedroom steadily step by step and placed him on the soft big bed.
Qin Lang entered the room, before he could change his shoes, he was led into the bedroom without touching the ground. Before he could sit up and take off his shoes, Jiang Chengzhou gently held his ankle and took it off.
Although they have experienced so many worlds together and have been together for so long, at this moment, Qin Lang’s heart is still moved by the tenderness of lowering his head.
He even shyly shrank his feet the second they were released by the other party, lifted the quilt and hid in.
He also realized that his actions were really like someone with first love, who lost the face of an aloof president, so he withdrew his expression, lifted the quilt again calmly, and said to Jiang Chengzhou: “Come in, aren’t you cold?”
President Jiang: “…” My wife enters the old husband and wife mode in second, I always feel that I have missed something.
But President Jiang wasn’t hypocritical, after all…It’s actually the late autumn season. Qin Lang was wearing a coat, and he, although the air conditioner was on in the room, without any exercise to warm up, he just took a shower and didn’t wipe off the water on purpose, let alone, it’s really a bit cold!
Qin Lang’s coat was casually thrown on the head of the bed. He didn’t want to move, so he didn’t bother to hang it up. He just wrapped his arms around the waist of the man beside him and stuck to him fondly, rubbing his ears and temples.
This embrace is so familiar, so warm, so reassuring.
“Why would my mother agree?” This is what Qin Lang is most curious about.
Jiang Chengzhou thought about it, hesitated for a second, and said, “Have you noticed that since you were eighteen years old, you don’t express your feelings to others much?”
It was as if something suddenly flashed in his mind, clearly showing things that he hadn’t noticed for years in front of him.
Eighteen years old, after the car accident, he delayed college for two weeks. He thought it was because he entered school late, so he couldn’t get acquainted with the people around him, that’s why he was indifferent, alienated, didn’t like to smile, didn’t like to talk, and successfully obtained the title of aloof. Whoever comes to confess, he also ignores him. At that time, he felt that he just had no feelings and didn’t want to fall in love, but now it seems like his heart is closed, he just doesn’t want to open it to anyone?
But before the age of eighteen, he was not like that. At least, in the eyes of others, he is not cold.
He has been very smart since he was a child. Although he thinks his peers are stupid, he will treat people politely and pleasantly with the etiquette and education he has received. He also made some good friends.
But later, his friends also went to university and their contact became less and less. He coldly refused when they invited him to go out to party. His friends thought he looked down on them and he also didn’t explain anything. Over time, there is no one friend around Him anymore. At most, the children of the wealthy families who grew up together with him will still have a little cooperative relationship now.
In fact, in the eyes of ordinary people, all his development is quite normal. When one grows up, their personality changes. Quite common.
Even Qin Lang himself didn’t think there was any problem, but the people closest to him don’t think so, for example, his mother.
Her son was in a coma for two days, and when he woke up, he suddenly matured, and his character was suddenly indifferent. No matter how she joked in front of her son and said interesting things, he would not twitch the corners of his mouth, it was quite strange. Especially when she wakes up in the middle of the night, she will find her son shedding tears dreaming in his sleep.
For a time, mother Qin, who had a big brain hole, suspected that Qin Lang was taken over by someone else. Qin Lang didn’t know that his mother secretly tested him many times in the next few months after he woke up from the car accident, only to confirm that this was indeed her own son.
With the advancement of science and technology, all kinds of strange diseases have appeared in human beings. After mother Qin confirmed, she secretly asked a trusted doctor to consult. The results showed that Qin Lang was indeed ill, a kind of emotional illness that closed his feelings and could not express them, but it is completely different from autism. He can communicate with people normally, his work and life will not be affected. The only thing is that his emotions or words with subjective feelings can no longer be accurately expressed.
To put it simply, to the person he likes, he can no longer say that he likes them. He has such an emotion in his heart that he can’t express it in words or behavior.
Just like toward mother Qin. In fact, Qin Lang still likes and cares about his mother, but after the age of eighteen, he never gave mother Qin a hug, a smile, even a greeting are extremely rare. If mother Qin didn’t know in advance, what would she think of her son? It’s like he doesn’t care or mind at all.
Those loved ones around him are gone and no stranger dares come near him. In the end, he was the only one left, alone, looking at the world through that invisible barrier.
Qin Lang was in a trance and understood why he liked reading novels. Because the protagonist and supporting characters in it all have rich feelings, affectionate, joyful, sad, resentful, jealous…All of those, he can’t express it.
He could experience it from the novel, so he liked it.
“Auntie is willing to take you to try it because she finds out that you can feel emotions in the virtual world, so she wants to take you to try it out.” Jiang Chengzhou’s low voice sounded in his ears. It was obviously filled with distress and sourness, but Qin Lang’s face felt a little hot when he heard it.
So it means, you all found out that I, the cold president, likes to read novels? Didn’t give up but still indulge in those feelings pleasingly!
Qin Lang coughed and forcibly changed the subject: “Did you try to approach me before?”
Jiang Chengzhou nodded, his voice still sour: “I tried when I found you, but you didn’t know me and stayed a thousand miles away from me. I thought it was very strange. I started following you and was discovered by auntie. In fact, in the past few years, we’ve seen each other in many venues. Maybe you just didn’t pay attention, but every time you come, I see you.”
Although he didn’t want to hit his husband, Qin Lang really doesn’t have any impression. For example, just now, when he looked at Jiang Chengzhou’s face, he still felt a little unfamiliar.
Before Qin Lang could comfort him, Jiang Chengzhou said, “In the end, you’re like that because of me…It’s my fault.”
Qin Lang remembered the dream in which he was holding Jiang Chengzhou’s corpse like crazy and said he hated him and wanted to forget him completely. He sighed secretly and held his ten fingers, “Is it the days when I was in a coma after the car accident?”
Jiang Chengzhou gave an ‘um’ and explained: “At that time, it was the single dog 1.0 version. Most of the virtual world, especially the world of love stories, most of them followed the old rules. After completing the task, they will leave the world. So I, even if I don’t want to die, there’s no way I can be with you…”
Jiang Chengzhou glanced at Qin Lang, afraid that he would get angry again, but fortunately Qin Lang just leaned on him and quietly waited for him to continue.
Qin Lang was in front of Jiuzhou Building on the day he was 18 and in the car accident. There are so many magical things about the universe. Just as Jiang Chengzhou turned on the device and entered the virtual world to check the results, Qin Lang’s brain waves came in by coincidence.
What Jiuzhou does is not just a project about love, there are also some things like getting rich and going to the peak of life, but those many holographic online games have already done so. This one is more delicate, one can completely experience a different life, nevertheless, it’s the first.
There are ten worlds that Jiang Chengzhou wants to try, each with different levels of difficulty. The first is a relatively ordinary modern world, and the mission target is a rich second generation who has just graduated from high school.
That’s right, that person is Qin Lang. But that world Qin Lang family background is different from the real world. It is not warm and harmonious. In short, it is a feud between wealthy families.
With the help of the system, Jiang Chengzhou saved Qin Lang from the fire and water, and gave him warmth again. The emotional development of the two came naturally.
There is almost no abuse in the middle, it is all sweet. However, because it is so smooth, it is extremely deadly when hurt.
Jiang Chengzhou was still a college student in the original world at the time. Although it did not affect his talent whether he finished it or not, in general, he was still young and easily tempted. Especially after the system informed him that Qin Lang seemed to have entered their world by accident and came from the same world as Jiang Chengzhou, his feelings became more serious.
The system is also very powerful, it didn’t take long for it to give the information Jiang Chengzhou wanted. Qin Lang was also called Qin Lang in the original world. He was also eighteen years old, but it was not a safe story about falling asleep and accidentally transmigrating. He was in a coma after a car accident and was delayed from waking up. Although it was not fatal, it also greatly affected his health, especially Qin Lang was injured in the head.
Temporarily closing the virtual world or forcing Qin Lang to leave, the system still cannot guarantee that he can return safely. However, when Jiang Chengzhou’s mission in that world is completed, with the normal procedures closed, Qin Lang will most likely return safely.
Jiang Chengzhou fell in love with this person, and naturally hoped that his lover in the real world would be fine. It’s just that he didn’t expect that his death in the virtual world would cause Qin Lang so much damage.
He hates him for leaving, never forgive, and forget him completely.
Even after returning to the original world, he began to isolate himself from the world, looked at everyone indifferently, and was unwilling to accept anyone’s approach.
That appearance broke Jiang Chengzhou’s heart when he first saw it, causing him to suffocate in pain.
But he didn’t want to give up, so he tried again and again. Until he was discovered by mother Qin.
He made it clear to mother Qin that he encountered Qin Lang when he was testing his project. Mother Qin was so angry that she wanted to beat him, although it wasn’t his fault.
No one expected Qin Lang to enter suddenly, and the default mode to let the host leave immediately after completing the task to go to the next world is also the default mode. Jiang Chengzhou is just going to the internal test, so it is understandable to choose the most time-saving default mode.
Not only she can’t blame him, but she also has to thank him. If Jiang Chengzhou didn’t send Qin Lang back in time, Qin Lang would not have woken up so quickly. If Jiang Chengzhou was a little selfish and took Qin Lang to experience world by world, maybe Qin Lang would be trapped in those worlds forever.
At first, the two were at a loss when faced with Qin Lang’s situation, and didn’t know what to do, until mother Qin found out that Qin Lang likes to read novels, and guessed that he might be able to express those feelings in the virtual world.
Jiang Chengzhou picked up the project that he had put on hold, improved it for a long time, and made the most successful version before letting mother Qin bring Qin Lang to try it.
He was afraid that when he saw Qin Lang, he would show emotions that did not belong to the character and Qin Lang would see something, so every time he entered a world, he would have the system block all his memories and only give him the character background memories of the world.
Compared with Qin Lang’s last hysterical emotions in that world, when Jiang Chengzhou returned to the main world to find him, he must have been more uncomfortable. Not to mention the bitter feeling of meeting him intentionally or unintentionally in the past few years, yet being treated as a stranger.
Qin Lang’s heart was full of dull ache at the moment, and he urgently needed something to relieve him.
So he stretched out his hand to wrap around the neck of the person beside him, and took the initiative to put a kiss on him.
Jiang Chengzhou was stunned for a moment, then quickly lowered his eyes, wrapped the person in front of him with the greatest tenderness, and let the others be dispelled by the sweetness of their lips and teeth.
It doesn’t matter, I remembered the love I have given.
It doesn’t matter, after waiting for so long, you have come to my side.
All the love and emotion melted into this sweet kiss. The two people who had the same heart and mind were incredibly soft.
Oh, and a place that should be hard is hard.
“Hiss…” Qin Lang’s cold face instantly collapsed as he knelt on the bed, his shoulders trembling uncontrollably. Ying…No one told me that the pain without the system shielding is so painful!
“Be good, bear with it, it will be fine after a while.” Although as someone who has experienced so many worlds and is already a veteran driver, he still did not expect this baby’s real body to be so tight. It made him feel distressed and a little excited at the same time.
“Wu…” Qin Lang actually wanted to ask if it was his husband’s skills that were downgraded! But intellectually and from his countless experiences, this doesn’t seem to be his husband’s problem. He can only blame him for relying on Twenty-Five for too long to shield his pain, so now he can’t get used to it for a moment.
Fortunately, the two of them are really experienced in this area and know what to do to ease the pain. This adaptation period passed quickly and they began to enter the running-in period.
Facts have proved that Qin Lang gave himself an extra day off in advance is a very wise choice.
The two who struggled all afternoon and night, only woke up near noon the next day.
The golden autumn sun temperature sprinkled on their body through the window is just right.
Jiang Chengzhou, who went to open the curtains, saw Qin Lang just woke up with sleepy eyes. The happiness and satisfaction on his face could not be suppressed.
He walked over, leaned down, brushed Qin Lang’s messy forehead with his long fingers, and printed a simple kiss on the smooth forehead. He reached out and held Qin Lang’s hand that stretched out of the quilt, and said softly, “Langlang, get up…”
Qin Lang opened his eyes and looked at him, the smile on his lips was the same sweetness as this man. His eyes fell on their hands that were intertwining.
The golden sunlight shines through the window on the two simple but delicate rings on the ring fingers of the two, reflecting the light that all the people in love in the world yearn for.
Qin Lang thought he had been single for more than 20 years and at this moment, he was finally free!
