Chapter 199: Want to Celebrate New Year’s Eve with You
Chapter 199
Chi Yan's sweet talk earned him a reward kiss from Chu Yang, but as they were kissing, Chi Yan whisked her off to the bathroom.
"You spendthrift, what are you doing?" she protested.
"Next time I'll buy you an even better one," he promised.
"!!!"
Their passionate encounter spread from the bathroom to the bedroom...
"The curtains aren't closed yet..." Chu Yang murmured.
Chi Yan took a deep breath, quickly ran to swish the curtains closed, then hurried back...
"I'm thirsty..." she said.
"Then let's go drink water, as much as you want!"
The sound of drinking water echoed from the bedroom to the kitchen, then from the kitchen to the living room, and finally back to the bedroom...
Chu Yang lifted her trembling foot and kicked him lightly. "I'm leaving tomorrow!"
Chi Yan immediately stopped, "Don't go, baby. I'll just hold you."
Despite the cold winter outside, Chu Yang felt like it was midsummer. Her forehead was covered in sweat, her cheeks flushed, as if she'd just stepped out of a sauna...
Chi Yan gently kissed her face. "Stay for two more days, and I'll take you home. Okay?"
Chu Yang closed her eyes, completely drained of energy. "Then you can't be such a beast like today." She felt like she had nearly died in bed.
With his beloved in his arms, Chi Yan couldn't help himself. Though he said, "Alright, alright, I'll do whatever you say..." his actions told a different story.
Chu Yang gave him a pinch. "Looks like I need to find some magic pill to curb your desires."
Chi Yan immediately surrendered, "I was wrong. I promise I won't be a beast for the next two days."
Chu Yang released him and turned to her side. "Hmph. Sleep!"
Chi Yan kissed her cheek, then wrapped his arms and legs around her as they drifted off to sleep.
...
Chu Yang felt something entwined around her, something she couldn't shake off no matter how hard she tried. She felt a bit short of breath. When she opened her eyes, she realized her face was buried in Chi Yan's chest, held tightly in his embrace, with a thick blanket covering them both. No wonder she could barely breathe or move!
Originally, she had been facing away from him, which was tolerable even with his embrace. But somehow during the night, she had turned around and ended up in Chi Yan's arms. The clingy Chi Yan had automatically tightened his hold on her, resulting in their current position.
Chu Yang was wearing pajamas, but Chi Yan wasn't wearing anything at all. He was getting more and more brazen. Chu Yang lifted his arm, then rolled onto her back, poking her head out from under the blanket. "Phew!" She then shuffled a bit to the side and tried to go back to sleep.
However, not long after Chu Yang fell asleep, Chi Yan's hand twitched. Hm? Where's my wife? Where is she? His hand groped around. Ah, found her.
He snuggled closer, holding her again. Ahh, much better!
The next morning when Chu Yang woke up, she found herself in Chi Yan's arms again. After some struggle, she finally managed to extricate herself from his embrace and got up to use the bathroom.
By then, Chi Yan had also woken up. He rubbed his eyes, threw off the blanket, and headed straight to the bathroom, pushing the door open to use the toilet...
Chu Yang, who was showering: ... This guy!!!
After finishing, he joined Chu Yang. "Honey, let's shower together."
Chu Yang: ... Ahhhhh! Go away!
After much commotion, they finally emerged from the bathroom, but Chi Yan now sported a very obvious teeth mark on his face.
Today, Chi Yan didn't have to go to work, so he stayed home to keep Chu Yang company. Chu Yang, however, was already packing her luggage.
"How about postponing for a few more days?" Chi Yan looked at Chu Yang with puppy eyes.
Chu Yang glared at him, ignoring his plea.
"We've never spent New Year's Eve together." Chi Yan's face fell. "Long-distance relationships are so hard!"
Chu Yang retorted, "Don't pretend you don't know. We've celebrated New Year's Eve together over video call before, doesn't that count? What long-distance relationship? How is this long-distance when we're living together?"
Chi Yan looked up at her. "Yang Yang, have you remembered everything?"
Chu Yang nodded, "I remembered a while ago."
Chi Yan moved closer to her, "When? When?"
Chu Yang certainly wasn't going to say it was during their first time together. If she mentioned that, he'd surely use it as an excuse to be a beast again.
"Ah, probably during a meal sometime. I can't remember exactly. I had used witchcraft before to recall past events, so it's more or less the same."
Chi Yan stared at her intensely.
Chu Yang felt a bit uneasy. "What? What's wrong?"
Chi Yan: "Since you remember everything now, do you recall how you wronged me before?"
Chu Yang was confused: "How did I wrong you? I don't remember doing anything like that." She genuinely couldn't think of anything.
Chi Yan put his hands on his hips, "You did! You said you wanted to break up with me before! My heart was breaking! You were so cold and heartless then!"
"Ahem! Wasn't that in the past? Why bring it up again? Besides, we both had amnesia then!" They had already rehashed this old issue once before. Why bring it up again? This just proves you should never do anything bad.
"We both had amnesia then, but I still liked you very much. But what about you? The first thing you said was that you wanted to break up. It still hurts to think about it. You need to make it up to me!" Chi Yan clutched his chest dramatically.
Chu Yang rubbed her temples, "What do you want?"
Chi Yan's eyes darted around: "Can we spend New Year's Eve together this year?"
Chu Yang: "What about our families? What about your family?" Family reunion night should be spent at home, after all.
Chi Yan's face fell again, "When can we spend New Year's Eve together? I want to spend it with you."
Chu Yang patted his head, "Next year, okay? I'll spend New Year's Eve with you next year." The thought of going to the city center together to watch fireworks and countdown on New Year's Eve did sound wonderful.
Chi Yan nuzzled against her, "It's a promise then."
Chu Yang's expression changed as she pinched his face, "Don't ever bring up that incident again!" She knew he was just digging up old issues to gain favors from her. Did he think she wouldn't notice?
Chi Yan smiled, "Okay, okay, I won't mention it again. Let's just be happy together."
"Hmph!" Chu Yang continued packing her clothes.
In the afternoon, Chu Yang decided to go out for a stroll. She was going home in a couple of days, so she wanted to buy some gifts to send back to her family.
Chi Yan accompanied her, and they wandered around the city center, buying loads of things. After dinner, they even went to see a movie. Remembering how Chi Yan had deliberately taken her to watch a horror movie before, Chu Yang pinched him several times!
They didn't watch a horror movie this time, but a comedy instead. Midway through the film, Chi Yan reached out to embrace her, but Chu Yang swatted his hand away. "Behave yourself!"
Chi Yan: ......
It was already past eleven o'clock when they returned home that night. Tonight, Chi Yan indeed wasn't beastly, so Chu Yang could sleep peacefully. As they slept, on a small island in the Southern Hemisphere, the island's inhabitants began fleeing in terror, though they didn't know where to escape to. The entire island was thrown into complete chaos...
In a rural residence somewhere in China, Zhou Guomin woke up due to jet lag. He drank some water and prepared to go back to sleep, when his phone pushed a notification. Zhou Guomin glanced at it: "Human Catastrophe! 7.0 magnitude earthquake hits St. Rees Island, St. Linus Volcano begins to erupt!"
Zhou Guomin immediately clicked on it. There was just that short sentence, no pictures, no additional description, but he had already collapsed to the ground.
