002-02

Li Dong originally thought that he was already mentally fortified against this sort of protagonist, but after witnessing Xingling brushes off abuse so easily, he still felt ready to vomit blood.

It’s really rare to see such a lowly existence.

“Eat.” Li Dong picked up his chopsticks to sample the food and gestured for Xingling to do the same. Li Dong really doesn’t think he can stomach looking at Xingling’s face right now.

Realizing that his words and actions had seemed excessive, Xu Xingling immediately put aside all other thoughts and reached for his chopsticks to eat. 

“Second Young Master, shall we go to a hotel later?” Xingling felt like Li Dong seemed a bit uncomfortable looking at him now. Did he not want to go anymore?

“Let’s talk after dinner. Don’t disturb me while I’m eating.” Li Dong said fiercely.

“Oh, yes.” Xu Xingling was very clever and knew to stop talking, but he still continued to glance at Second Young Master with mildly coquettish eyes.

(translator notes: where was this survival instinct in front of tianlin ffs -_- .)

After some time, Xingling began to sense that the atmosphere when eating with Yubai was a bit too casual, with no pressure at all. It almost felt like he was eating with his friends.

After dinner, Li Dong drove Xu Xingling back to his apartment.

He parked the car downstairs lazily drawled, “Go up by yourself. Remember to ice your face.”

“Second Young Master?” Xu Xingling was very surprised. “Aren’t you going up?” The furrow between his brows reflected his anxiety at this moment. He sat down firmly in the car, hesitant to leave now.

“It’s a bit late now.” Li Dong glanced at his watch. It was already 11pm in the middle of the night, and it would be almost 12am once he drove back home. “Don’t you have work tomorrow?”

“But I only go to work at 10am.” There is plenty of time.

“…” Why did Li Dong feel as if this Xingling was a bit afraid that he would run away? “What would I be doing accompanying you upstairs? You~?” He commented, uninterested.

Now, Xu Xingling was even more anxious. If Second Young Master Han didn’t like him, he won’t have a chance to appear in front of Han Tianlin in the future.

(translator notes: sorry for interrupting all this sexual tension and all, but the raws really were lacking in detail in this next part. i was so disappointed, so i added quite a bit of detail here. skim through this next part if you aren’t comfortable reading lemon, otherwise, thank me later (~ ͜ʖ•). an asterisk will mark the end of the lemony part if anyone’s looking to skip forward.)

Feeling a bit desperate, Xingling decided to take the initiative. “Second Young Master, let me take care of you…” He looked timid as he placed his pale hand on Li Dong’s thigh, but he was blatantly seducing him.

Li Dong glanced downward, frowning and contemplating matters for a moment. “I really don’t want to move. If you want to serve me, just serve me here.” He even unbuckled his seatbelt trying to intimidate Xingling, bluffing.

But the other party really removed his hand from Li Dong’s thigh and reached to undo his belt. Li Dong felt a bit incredulous as he watched Xingling scooting towards him and adjusting his posture in the passenger seat to find a position that would be more convenient. Xingling resolutely slid the black belt strap free from the buckle, hands almost visibly shaky as he unbuttoned his jeans.

Li Dong considered stopping him, but he wanted to see how far this protagonist was willing to go.

Li Dong wasn’t even hard when Xingling undid his fly and slowly pulled down the fabric of his briefs, but as Xingling’s warm hand wrapped around him to squeeze the tip slightly, then stroke slowly to the bottom to grip the base, he felt himself having to look away and out the window to feint nonchalance.

Li Dong suppressed a shiver as he felt a wet warmth enclosing around the tip of his slowly hardening length when Xingling tentatively took him into his mouth. Xingling hesistated for a few moments, as he was completely new to activities of this matter. Absentmindedly, Xingling gave Li Dong’s cock a few frustratingly gentle strokes up and down, still with just the tip resting in his mouth, to give himself a few seconds to steel himself up to continue.

This was Xingling’s first time doing something like this, but he wasn’t completely clueless. He teasingly circled the tip of his tongue around the head as his grip tightened and hand moved firmly along the rest of Li Dong’s cock. Li Dong couldn’t help but gasp a bit when Xingling dipped his head to take more of Li Dong into his mouth, his tongue lathering the underside as he did so.

Right now, Xu Xingling really seemed like a man who could have had many lovers; his actions right now could only be described as dedicated. It made Li Dong a bit uncomfortable.

“…” In fact, Xingling seemed so nervous that Li Dong felt like he really couldn’t enjoy it.

Li Dong almost couldn’t hold his tongue; this protagonist really worked too hard, and he really couldn’t believe that it was his first time engaging in this kind of activity.

Li Dong let Xingling bob up and down on his length for a while, feeling his tongue swirling around the tip and then massaging all along him with his mouth providing a stimulating suction that should have felt incredible. Despite Xingling’s efforts, Li Dong wasn’t really feeling any pleasure in such a situation and really was only half hard.

*

And then he suddenly thought of something. Xu Xingling’s beautiful mouth was being used to pleasure him in such a way, but he hadn’t even kissed him yet… 

“Come on.” After a while more, Li Dong gave Xingling’s hair a gentle tug to signal for him to sit back up.

Xu Xingling thoughtfully took out a tissue, not for wiping his own mouth, but for Li Dong.

Only after helping Li Dong clean up carefully did he take out another tissue to wipe his mouth. “Second Young Master.” He smiled cheerily, as if satisfied with his own service.

But Li Dong was ruthless and merely reached for a bottle of mineral water to toss to him. “Get out of the car.”

“Thank you, second master.” Xu Xingling looked at Li Dong eagerly and hoped that Li Dong would put in a good word for him to Tianlin, but Li Dong’s expression was a bit stoney right now and so it made him a little unsure. He asked a bit hesitantly, “Won’t you give me your number?” He was afraid that Li Dong would leave tonight and never come back. What would Xingling do if LI Dong never contacted him ever again in the future?

Li Dong found a business card on his person and threw it to Xingling. “Contact me yourself if you want to see me.”

“Okay!” Xu Xingling got Li Dong’s phone number, so he was content to get of the car now. “Second Young Master, drive carefully!”

Seeing the luxury car drive off immediately and disappear within a few moments, he felt a bit lost as he stood downstairs next to his apartment complex.

Just like every day in the past, Xingling misses Tianlin desperately whenever he doesn’t see him. He feels so empty, so lonely, so cold.

Only when he was with Second Young Master Han did his suffering lessen a bit.

Xu Xingling clutched the business card given by Li Dong, and immediately took out his phone to save the number. He wanted to call Li Dong now, but guessed that the other party was still driving home and thus changed his mind.


translator’s notes:

hey there!

ooohhh, we got a little action~ going on for our mc li dong here… and for the first time in thirty years too!

i know that it was probably regulations that didn’t allow for explicit detail in the raws, but it was so, so vague, even untranslated, that i hadn’t known xingling had actually gone down on li dong until i read the part about him helping clean li dong up. i did add a bit of detail (just a bit. juuuuust a bit.) but was wondering if you guys actually like reading those specifics?

and also because i’m just curious:

as always, thanks for stopping by, be sure to rate on novelupdates and support me on ko-fi! till next time!

  1. Hi there! Thank you for translating. Personally, I only like to read words that the author actually wrote in the original. If the author didn’t write it explicitly then it’s like a scene that doesn’t exist and becomes a subjective interpretation rather than a translation. I do like smut but not if it tweaks the original. I can understand your disappointment though, haha. Nothing sucks more than a fade to black smut scene. May be you could give those details in a separate post instead of the chapter? It’s up to you though, you’re the translator and I appreciate the hard work that goes into translating.

    1. Hiya! I completely understand where you come from as a reader. In this chapter, it was a bit more straightforward as the thoughts and reactions that Li Dong and Xingling had were completely from the raws, just the dirty details were left out. But I definitely get that my own interpretations might be distorting the characters, so I’ll definitely be aware of that next time! Thanks for the feedback!
