After the meeting, the banquet was lively, and the round table was piled up with delicious food and wine, as if it was about to pile up a New Year's Eve dinner.
Ji Linqiu ate absent-mindedly and felt a little tired.
After a tiring day, he just wanted to go back to his room, take a bath and have a good sleep.
Jiang Wang was persuaded to drink a few drinks, but he didn't drink too much.
During the banquet, she leaned over to get close to him, bent her knuckles and hooked down the bow tie.
"Why are you so obedient." The man laughed hoarsely, "I tied it tightly, but you keep letting it hold you, won't you let it go?"
Ji Linqiu obviously didn't drink, but when he spoke, he felt like he was drunk.
He squinted and smiled, refusing to explain.
"How can I reward you?" Just as Jiang Wang said this, the boss on the opposite side laughed and toasted loudly again. The man raised his head and finished drinking, then leaned back to talk in his ear again.
Strange to say.
When others approached Ji Linqiu after drinking, he would feel disgusted by the smell.
But Jiang Wang was so close to him, he felt comfortable instead.
Wine is like fuel, it can burn and steam Jiang Wang's whole body, and the smell of male hormones spreads unscrupulously, enveloping him completely.
Thinking of this, Ji Linqiu felt that he understood again.
He doesn't like the smell of wine. He just likes to smell of him on himself.
Ji Linqiu had never been in a relationship before, and only after meeting Jiang Wang did he become enlightened like a baby.
He was silent, and he was unwilling to say a few nasty words. He was a reserved and dry lover. After a long time, even Ji Linqiu himself wondered if he was a little dull.
But countless small habits were accumulated bit by bit, like spider silk soaking into the rain, and fused into an instinct he hadn't known for a long time.
In the end, infatuation is as instinctive as breathing.
Light and simple, lingering.
He was used to pampering him and agreeing to all kinds of unreasonable or cute demands of this man.
"What's the point of rewarding you?" Jiang Wang repeated, lightly touching the tip of his nose with the rim of the clear glass, and teased in a low voice in the crowded private room: "You didn't drink a glass, why are you still blushing."
Ji Linqiu looked at him and laughed.
"If I drink, I will be drunk with you in the corridor later, who will take you back to the room?"
"You should drink some." Jiang Wang narrowed his eyes and said, "Wine is strong and cowardly."
Without waiting for Ji Linqiu's reaction, Jiang Wang got up and put on his coat, saying goodbye to all the guests.
"There is still a video conference in the company tonight, and Director Ji and I will go back first."
Everyone was surprised and sighed, a little bit reluctant for them to leave.
"The food has just been served, how about some more?"
"So busy! No wonder the business is so big!"
"I'll see Mr. Jiang, Ji Dong tomorrow!"
Jiang Wang led Ji Linqiu to the hotel room. He seemed a little unconscious during the banquet, but when he came out, his steps were steady and straight.
Ji Linqiu vaguely sniffed out something, but sometimes he couldn't figure out the man.
He walked beside him with his head down, his voice low.
"Wearing your tie today makes my throat so hot."
The restaurant is on the fourth floor and the room is on the 21st floor. They have to turn a few corners.
There were waiters and customers hurrying past along the way.
No one noticed that they were holding hands.
They didn't even realize when they started holding hands.
"It's so hot." Jiang Wang repeated, looking at him as if smiling, and looking at his tie.
Ji Linqiu lowered his head subconsciously, only to find that his collarbone was undone with two buttons, and his collarbone was exposed.
He was like the person who was toasted in turn during the banquet. He was confused for a while and murmured: "Reward me... what?"
The elevator dinged and locked them in a small and warm space.
The man said softly: "Stretch out your hand."
He obediently held out his hand.
Jiang Wang took out a square box and put it in Ji Linqiu's palm like a reward candy.
It's a box of air slim.
Ji Linqiu was startled for a moment, then quickly looked up at him.
"Usually I don't want to drink, who can drink it for me." Jiang Wang glanced at the slowly rising elevator numbers, and spoke greenly again: "Drink more, so that I won't be embarrassed to look at you later."
Ji Linqiu couldn't figure out how this person could seamlessly switch between familiarity and clumsiness, he clenched the cover tightly and let out a hasty moan.
In fact, he didn't study this matter carefully.
I've seen the movie before, but I always felt uncomfortable. After a quick glance, I never watched it again.
So he lowered his head and looked at the outer packaging of the small cube in the dim light.
"... so you need this?"
It was only at this time that Jiang Wang realized that he had been holding his hand. He had held it so naturally before that he could even forget about it.
He pulled him closer and whispered in his ear.
"I want to do that too."
"But it said on the Internet that he might have a fever."
Ji Linqiu let out an oh, thinking it made sense, and then realized something.
"I'm down there?"
Jiang Wang was already loosening his tie, he paused when he heard the sound, his eyes were warm.
"If you don't like..."
"I feel very happy." Ji Linqiu didn't know what he was talking about: "I always want to hug me tighter like this."
Want to kiss your soul, your sweat and your blood.
I'm probably doomed long ago.
Halfway through his speech, all the thoughts behind him were silent.
Jiang Wang stared at him, but smiled brightly.
As if I understood everything.
The elevator dinged again and slowly opened.
…
After Jiang Wang finished, he hugged his extremely tired lover into the bathtub.
He was very prescient, put the water in advance, and even prepared a fruit plate next to it.
Ji Linqiu was still wearing a tie on his right wrist, and when he fell into the bathtub, he looked like a mermaid who was finally released after being eaten.
His eyes are still foggy, his lips are dry, and he has been soaked in warm water for a long time without making a sound.
Jiang Wang looked at him lying on the side of the bathtub, first reached out to touch his face, and then checked the water temperature several times as if he was afraid that he would catch a cold.
Ji Linqiu sniffed the smell in the air, then slowly got up and lay down next to the bathtub, touching his forehead.
Jiang Wang kissed his lips.
"Are you ok?"
"Yeah." Ji Linqiu pursed his lower lip, and whispered in his ear, "Don't let others into this room, the smell will be exposed."
Jiang Wang smiled and straightened his wet hair with his fingers.
"At this time, I'm still worrying about this."
Ji Linqiu nestled in the heat
In the steaming bathtub, her slender legs were slightly bent, and her skin was as pale as warm jade.
Jiang Wang reached out to grab the towel, trying to help him scrub his back, but suddenly he was caught around the shoulders and fell into the bathtub, and the nearby water splashed wildly.
Ji Linqiu looked up at him, his eyes were bright.
"Are you tired?"
"Invite me to take a bath together?" Jiang Wang bent over him, licked the corner of his lips and said, "Or have you rested?"
"When I was doing it just now, I suddenly thought," Ji Linqiu raised his hand to caress his side face, both of them were soaked from the splash of water.
"I should buy you a bunch of Peach Snow Mountain."
"In this way, you can see this bouquet of flowers every day in the office, and when you see it, you can think of how bright my heart is when I love you."
Jiang Wang looked down at him and laughed too.
"OK."
"I look forward to receiving your flowers."
