“I haven’t taken it.” Laughter shone in Gu Kaifeng’s eyes as he shook his head, and as he and Lin Feiran were pressed together, their noses rubbed from the movement. Gu Kaifeng said intimately, “I was waiting for you to feed it to me.”

“Don’t fuss.” Lin Feiran shyly retracted his neck, but just as he gained some distance, Gu Kaifeng’s hand pressed him back down again.

Gu Kaifeng maintained the position where their foreheads were touching, and laughed, “Did you think I was about to kiss you just now?”

That tiny, secret thought that even Lin Feiran himself had not understood took a sudden and direct hit. Lin Feiran internally panicked and hurried to loudly deny it. “No! Do you think I let my thoughts run wild the way you do?”

Gu Kaifeng let out a noncommittal ‘hmm’ and lowered his gaze to look at Lin Feiran’s lips. “I’m worried I’ll infect you.” As he finished, he lightly pinched the nape of Lin Feiran’s neck as if he were picking up a kitten. “If not, I’d kiss you until you couldn’t breathe.”

Lin Feiran broke the hold Gu Kaifeng had on the back of his neck and hurried to stand up, saying, “I’ll find you some medicine.”

When Lin Feiran had that high fever last time, he had only taken one dose of the cold and fever medicine Gu Kaifeng had bought him before putting it away. There was still a lot left.

Lin Feiran opened the cabinet door, his butt sticking out as he rummaged for the box of medicine at the very bottom. Gu Kaifeng stared at the butt encased in black uniform pants, his eyes radiating hunger like a wolf that had starved for several days.

Lin Feiran, who was searching for the medicine, whipped around as if reacting to having been touched. His gaze met Gu Kaifeng’s that was filled with naked hunger he had not bothered to conceal, and his cheeks instantly heated. He subconsciously tugged at his uniform jacket as if trying to extend the hem a little in order to cover his butt. At the same time, he warned Gu Kaifeng with an unhappy expression, “If you keep looking at me like that, I won’t care for you anymore.”

Gu Kaifeng obediently lowered his eyes and stared at the ground. As if begging for mercy, he said, “I won’t look. Care for me.”

Lin Feiran muttered softly, “Just burn to death already.”

Gu Kaifeng let out a joyful laugh. He intentionally mixed up his pronunciation as he repeated, “Just frustrate me to death already.”

My roommate is especially annoying! Lin Feiran huffed as he popped out two cold pills and one fever pill. Picking up an unopened bottle of mineral water, he turned back just in time to see a weak-looking Gu Kaifeng leaning against his pillow, his face burning red. Remembering that Gu Kaifeng had gotten sick from being rained on when was rescuing the kittens, Lin Feiran’s heart suddenly went soft. He wanted to take better care of this especially frustrating patient. So, he took the cup Gu Kaifeng had previously used, poured in the mineral water until it was a little less than half full, and topped it off with hot water from the thermos. He then tipped a little onto the back of his hand to test the temperature.

“Take your medicine.” Lin Feiran brought the cup and pills to Gu Kaifeng’s mouth, his tone cold and inflexible, a stark contrast to the steam wafting from the cup.

Gu Kaifeng stretched out his neck as if his hands were out of commission, his lips gently landing on Lin Feiran’s palm. Using the tip of his tongue, he swiped the three pills into his mouth.

Lin Feiran replied harshly, “I should have used boiling water. Then I’d be ridding society of a trouble maker.”

Gu Kaifeng was stunned, then held his hand against his forehead as he laughed. He was having so much fun teasing his future wife that he had almost forgotten the pain of being sick!

After taking care of Gu Kaifeng, Lin Feiran wolfed down the rest of the food, quickly clearing the plates. He packed up the lunchboxes then took the syringe and some milk to feed the cats, whispering to them as he fed them.

Lin Feiran said in a low voice, “Was Egg Cake good today? What about Glutinous Rice Cake? Stay a bit further away from Gu Kaifeng. He’s a damned pervert. Especially Mung Bean Cake and Cloud Cake, you two are boys...”

Gu Kaifeng tried to explain himself, “I’m only perverted towards you.”

Lin Feiran held onto the cats, speechless. “......”

This person dares to say these things!

Several popular pet bloggers had reblogged the plea for adoption that Lin Feiran sent out earlier, and quite a few people had gotten in touch to say that they wanted to adopt the kittens. Lin Feiran corresponded with them; if everything went smoothly, these four kittens would all find new homes before next Monday.

After he finished feeding the four cake-named kittens, the evening self-study session was about to begin. Lin Feiran put Cloud Cake back into the cardboard box and thought about stealing something containing Yang energy to protect him. Just now, Gu Kaifeng had licked his palm while taking his medicine, and Lin Feiran surmised that this would last him a while, but if it was not enough, a tragedy would occur on the way back to the dorm from the school building.

As he was hesitating, Gu Kaifeng, who was reclining on the bed, began to speak. “RanRan, let’s do evening self-study in the dorms. I’ll call Miss Zheng and say my fever is very high and that you came back to take care of me.”

Lin Feiran was doubtful. “Would Miss Zheng let me off?”

“If I ask on your behalf, yes. You should go and tell Miss Zheng too, okay?” Gu Kaifeng grabbed Lin Feiran’s hand from where he stood next to the bed and rubbed his own burning cheek against it.

Lin Feiran blushed and pulled back his hand. He picked up the empty lunchboxes from the ground and headed to the door.

Gu Kaifeng kept repeating like a broken record, “RanRan, do evening self-study with me. RanRan, do evening self-study...”

“That’s enough.” Lin Feiran stamped his foot with self-righteous dignity. “I’m going to ask for leave!”

Little sticky cake Lin, who had been frustrated by Gu Kaifeng to the point his head was spinning, set off to the teacher’s office to request leave. He then went to the classroom and collected his and Gu Kaifeng’s homework before returning to the dorm.

The two desks in the dorm were moveable. For the sake of convenience, Lin Feiran moved them both so they were adjacent to the bed, then sat down on the bed beside Gu Kaifeng. Surrounded by Yang energy, he felt reassured and began to do his homework.

Gu Kaifeng struggled to sit up and asked, “What’s left? Is there a lot of homework?”

“It’s not bad.” Lin Feiran glanced over and took Gu Kaifeng by the shoulders, then pushed him down onto the bed. He commanded severely, “You just took fever medicine, so lie down and rest for a while. Once your temperature goes down, you can start doing the work.”

Gu Kaifeng obediently lay down beneath his blankets for less than a minute before he got bored. He bent his knees and scooched down the bed a little, stretching out both his arms to surround Lin Feiran. Then he started coughing very violently and it was hard to stop. After calming down, he stubbornly pinched Lin Feiran’s waist and breathlessly said, “Baby’s waist is so slender.”

Lin Feiran’s expression was thunderous as he took Gu Kaifeng’s arms and stuffed them back under the bedding, tightly tucking in the corners of the blankets. He yelled, “Lie down properly and rest until the fever goes down! Are you going to tease me until you die!?

Gu Kaifeng nodded weakly. “En. I can’t resist it when I see you.”

Lin Feiran said coldly, “Resist.”

Gu Kaifeng pursed his lips and blew a kiss at Lin Feiran. “Mwah.”

Lin Feiran, whose temper had completely subsided: “......”

Lin Feiran continued writing for a while. After finishing a long question, Gu Kaifeng, who had been watching intently from the side, once again stuck to him. “Baby, come over,” Gu Kaifeng said. “Rest for five minutes.”

“And you say I stick to people...” Lin Feiran mumbled. “You stick to people more than me.”

“I have a headache.” Gu Kaifeng scooted closer on the bed and pillowed his head on Lin Feiran’s thigh. His voice was several octaves lower due to his cold, but his tone unprecedentedly carried a hint of wheedling. “Baby, come and rub it for me.”

Lin Feiran awkwardly refused, “Rub what? I won’t.”

Gu Kaifeng took Lin Feiran’s hand and pressed it to his temple, whispering, “Rub my temple. Quick, it hurts.”

The school beau Gu, who was usually cool and overbearing, was now, shockingly, wheedling! Taken aback by this drastic change, Lin Feiran half-heartedly began to rub. After a while, he started to press on the other acupuncture points on his head of his own accord. As he massaged, Gu Kaifeng suddenly stuck out his hand and caught Lin Feiran’s right hand, holding it before his eyes and scrutinizing it like he was admiring a cultural relic.

Lin Feiran had played the piano for many years, and it might have been because playing piano had trained his fingers, but his hands looked very beautiful. His fingers were slender and long and the bones and joints intricate, as if an artisan had carved them sliver by sliver. His skin was pale and smooth, leaving the impression of fresh snow. In fact, his hand was indeed cold.

“Your hands are nice to look at.” Gu Kaifeng lightly kissed the tips of Lin Feiran’s fingers.

“My hands are indeed very nice to look at. Did you just realize that? A magazine even wanted to photograph my hands for their cover. Heh heh, I refused.” The body part Lin Feiran was most proud of was his hands, so he couldn’t resist a little narcissism and stuck his little tail up, waving it til he was satisfied before turning on Gu Kaifeng, “But you’re not allowed to kiss them!” He even tried to snatch his hand back.

Gu Kaifeng laughed quietly. Not only did he not let go, he held on tighter to Lin Feiran’s hand and stuffed it into the wide open collar of his pajamas. He said gravely, “Your hand is too cold. I’ll warm it for you. My chest is very warm.”

Lin Feiran didn’t have the chance to refuse. The hand which had been forcibly stuffed into Gu Kaifeng’s pajamas now touched a strange, pointed, upright little thing...

Lin Feiran: “...”

I have to cut this hand off.

Gu Kaifeng said suggestively, “Baby, are you misbehaving?”

“Who?!” Lin Feiran, who had been forced to misbehave, now used all his strength to pull his hand back. He wiped it on Gu Kaifeng’s blanket and protested with his face and both ears red. “I didn’t want to reach in! You’re the one who caught me and...”

Gu Kaifeng laughed and cut Lin Feiran off unrepentantly, “Don’t say all those useless things. You touched it, so you touched it.”

Lin Feiran yelled angrily, “You scoundrel!”

“Doesn’t matter. I have to touch you now in return.” At this time, Gu Kaifeng was lying on Lin Feiran’s thigh, facing up. Using his geographical advantage, he pulled up the hem of Lin Feiran’s shirt and stuck his hand in. Lin Feiran cried out in surprise. In the meantime, as Gu Kaifeng sat up and pressed him backwards, Lin Feiran tried to catch the salty pig’s trotter. The two ended up tangled into a ball on the bed. It was not until the moment that Lin Feiran was fully pressed down that he bitterly realized even though Gu Kaifeng had a high fever, he was still stronger than himself...

Three seconds later, Lin Feiran let out a moan as alluring as a kitten. Immediately after followed Gu Kaifeng’s pained hiss.

Another three seconds later, Gu Kaifeng was rubbing his shoulder as he sat up with a satisfied expression. Moving his hand, he revealed fresh teeth marks on his shoulder.

Lin Feiran yanked Gu Kaifeng’s blankets and swiftly wrapped himself up into a little silkworm cocoon so only his red face stuck out. He grit his teeth and cursed, “You damn pervert!”

Gu Kaifeng put his hand to his forehead and laughed so hard the whole bed shook.
