Chapter 40 "What do you want me to do?" I'm used to being humble...
Chu Yan thought about it and felt that Xi Che must be hiding something from him. For this matter, he even did not hesitate to tarnish his own image.
He still remembered that when he was dressed as Chu Qi, Xi Che's body was in estrus, but he kept cursing while having sex with him. He is not as carefree as he says, saying that there are lovers in all three realms... If that is true, why would he show such reluctance?
So what was he trying to hide from me? Why must he be driven away?
Chu Yan understood Xi Che's character. If he wanted to hide something, he would never tell it even if he died. If he wants to know the truth, he can only investigate it himself. Therefore, Chu Yan decided to conceal the truth for the time being and stay by Xi Che's side as Chu Qi. This would not only protect him but also help him clarify the doubts in his heart.
Chu Yan took Xi Che to find a hotel near Xiaoyao Mountain to stay. In order to pretend to be more genuine, he simply bought some clothes and daily necessities and booked the room they were staying in. If you want to do business here, it is reasonable to book a room in the hotel. Moreover, the environment around this hotel is quite good. They have been through a lot recently, so it would be nice to take a break here.
Hmm...what excuse should I make up for myself? Those two demons seemed to have mentioned the Golden Bell Saint Lord, so let's say his family asked him to seek refuge with the Golden Bell Saint Lord. That seems reasonable.
Chu Yan was very satisfied with the reason of "Chu Qi and Asa's chance encounter". After all, Asa was going to stay here, so it was natural for them to act together next.
Xi Che was very drunk. Apart from the initial utterances, he lost the ability to communicate with the outside world and did not respond no matter how they called him. Chu Yan carried him to the bed, and Xi Che kept humming softly, with his brows tightly furrowed, looking very uncomfortable. Not only was Xi Che hungover at this time, he also fell asleep outside after getting drunk. The cold wind blew and he started to have a fever.
Chu Yan was lying on the other side of the bed, holding Xi Che in his arms. He took Jin Qilin out of his arms, gently put it inside Xi Che's clothes, and hugged him and the little Qilin together. Jin Qilin liked the scent of Chu Yan and finally stopped barking. He lay quietly on Xi Che's chest and closed his eyes.
Although the atmosphere was warm at the moment, Chu Yan was very scared by the accident that happened not long ago. He stared at Xi Che's face expressionlessly - Asa always didn't cherish him. What would he do if he didn't come back today? Even if no one comes to cause trouble later, if he sleeps on the street for a night in his current condition, he will definitely get seriously ill.
"Chu Yan..."
Chu Yan was angry, and his emotions showed. Maybe the person in his arms sensed his emotional change, but suddenly shouted out vaguely, with a pitiful cry in his voice, as if begging for mercy.
Chu Yan was usually very cold and looked like he didn't want anyone to approach him. He was even more frightening when he was angry. He lowered his eyes, wanting to hear what he was going to say next, but he saw him shrinking and curling himself into a ball, clutching the clothes on his chest tightly, like a helpless child.
He softened his heart.
Chu Yan stroked Xi Che's neck and back with one hand, trying to comfort him. He was feverish all over and seemed really ill.
"Asa, what do you want me to do?"
He is always like this, saying nothing only makes him feel distressed.
Chu Yan sighed, lowered his head and kissed Xi Che's forehead. Seeing that he closed his eyes and did not move, he could not help but kiss his eyes again: "Have a good sleep."
But Xi Che did not sleep well. After sleeping for more than ten minutes, he began to tremble all over, and his body temperature was even higher than before. Chu Yan felt that he could not rely on his own body to heal himself, so he hurried to the bathroom and filled a tub with hot water. Then he stripped himself naked and put him in the hot water, then sat in it himself.
Chu Yan let Xi Che sit in his arms and hugged him from behind. In order to maintain the temperature of the hot water, he threw a few heating spells into the water, and then held his hand tightly to transfer spiritual power to him.
Chu Yan originally just wanted to expel the coldness he had caught after drinking, but he unexpectedly discovered that there was a solidified coldness in Xi Che's body, lingering in his dantian, freezing his entire mind. Chu Yan suddenly opened his eyes, lowered his head and looked at Xi Che in shock - no wonder he was shivering with cold even when soaking in hot water, the cold was so strong that Chu Yan felt as if he had seen it before, just like the cold poison he had contracted in the cold pond before.
However, the cold poison in Xi Che's body was much lighter than the one he was infected with, and it had not penetrated deeply into his meridians. With his cultivation level, he could use his spiritual power to dissolve it and dispel it from his body.
It's strange, how did he become like this? Why didn't he tell me the truth? The relationship between them is no longer the same as it used to be. I should tell him this honestly. And it wouldn't hurt for Asa to get treatment early, as he could easily fix this minor ailment.
Chu Yan was not a stupid person. When he thought about how he had wanted to use his spiritual power to help him expel the yellow talisman from his body, but he had refused to agree, he began to have some associations. Is this what he wants to hide from himself? In order to conceal this matter, he first lured him to divert his attention, and then tricked him into leaving. He really used all kinds of tricks.
"Hmm..."
Xi Che suddenly groaned in pain, drawing Chu Yan's attention back. He hurriedly took back some of his spiritual power. He was too anxious just now and Xi Che's body couldn't bear it. As Chu Yan's spiritual power was transferred, Xi Che's expression gradually relaxed, and white steam continued to emerge from his body. It was the coldness in his body being dispelled and escaping from his pores.
After running through several small cycles, the person in his arms finally stopped shaking. Chu Yan stroked his bangs that were wet with sweat and gave him a light kiss on the top of his head.
Chu Yan thought that he'd better get him out, otherwise when he woke up and found that he was not wearing any clothes, he would probably think he was a pervert and might even get furious. By then, he will definitely not want to go the same way with me.
He had never been so humble in his life...
Although Xi Che hadn't woken up in the second half of the night, he obviously no longer felt uncomfortable, and the heat in his body had subsided, except that his lips were dry due to the heat. Chu Yan had been watching over him, and seeing him licking his lips constantly, he went to pour him a glass of water and fed it to him.
Anyway, Xi Che was now unconscious and didn't know what he was doing, so Chu Yan held some water and fed it into his mouth. Perhaps he was extremely thirsty, and he instinctively swallowed the liquid fed into his mouth, and even greedily sucked on the tip of his tongue.
Chu Yan smiled, pinched Xi Che's chin and kissed him gently.
He has developed an extremely thick skin and no longer feels ashamed of his despicable behavior of taking advantage of others' misfortunes.
After tossing and turning for most of the night, Xi Che finally fell asleep, and Chu Yan hugged him and lay on the bed. Hearing his breathing become long and calm, he finally felt relieved.
The consequences of getting drunk are very serious. You feel great when you drink, but you only feel uncomfortable after you get drunk. Apart from the initial feeling of vaguely hearing Chu Yan's voice, Xi Che later felt as if he had passed out, and he had no idea what was happening in the outside world.
So when he woke up the next day and opened his eyes, he found himself lying in someone's arms. Xi Che's head, which was already buzzing with a hangover, became even more confused.
...He seemed to have fallen asleep on the side of the road. Damn, I wonder if his body was picked up by someone.
Xi Che felt sad in his heart. Damn it, how could his life become like this? Ever since he became a succubus, he didn't even have the right to have a hangover, because he might wake up in a stranger's bed. After the sadness, anger surged in his heart. Damn it, why should he blame himself? It was the fault of these rubbish who couldn't control their lower bodies. Xi Che raised his hand and was about to use the Sticky Technique on the person in front of him, but he didn't expect the other person to speak first: "You want to kill your savior as soon as you wake up. How can you have such a bad temper?"
Xi Che was stunned for a moment, looked up, and saw an ordinary and familiar face, very close to him, staring at him.
"Chu Qi..."
Xi Che hurriedly got up from the bed and looked at him puzzledly: "Why are you here?"
Chu Yan glanced at him, took the coat from the bedside and put it on: "I'm here to find the Golden Bell Saint, and want to become his disciple."
Xi Che frowned, always feeling that something was not right about what he said, but he had a hangover and a headache, so he couldn't figure out what was wrong for a while, so he ignored it for the time being.
He looked around and found himself in a place similar to a hotel, and there was only one bed.
...How did they sleep in the same bed yesterday?
Chu Yan saw through what Xi Che was thinking and explained calmly, "This is where I'm staying temporarily. I saw you drunk on the street last night, and it wasn't safe with so many people coming and going on the road, so I brought you back."
Xi Che sat down doubtfully, but when he looked down he discovered that his clothes seemed to have been changed. Before he could ask, Chu Yan said, "The clothes you wore yesterday were soaked in wine and can't be worn anymore. I helped you change your clothes."
He admitted it so frankly that Xi Che couldn't find a reason to get angry for a while, and the current situation was much better than what he had initially thought of being picked up by someone, so Xi Che psychologically accepted it.
A slight humming sound came from his chest. Xi Che looked down and found that it was the golden unicorn. Xi Che raised his hand and pressed it into his arms, even forgetting how he brought it back.
Xi Che was not an unreasonable person. Since the other person saved him, he quickly thanked him: "Thank you." "You
're welcome."
He said, glancing out the window: "But this is the territory of the demon clan. Don't drink so much and sleep outside in the middle of the night. It's very dangerous."
Xi Che thought to himself, in the past, let alone in such a place, even if he was drunk on the most chaotic street in the demon clan, no one dared to do anything to him. He said that he was used to his powerless self, but in fact, many things did not change his past habits. Xi Che lowered his head and was silent for a while, then said, "I understand."
Chu Yan also fell silent for a while, then suddenly asked, "What's up with the cold poison in your body? Weren't you fine when we parted last time?"
He thought that Xi Che would sooner or later find out that the cold poison in his body had been expelled, and would sooner or later know that it was him who did it, so he might as well ask himself. Maybe he just wanted to hide the fact that he was Chu Yan, and didn't mind telling the truth to others.
Xi Che looked at him in surprise, felt it carefully, and then found that the cold poison he had transferred from Chu Yan had disappeared: "Did you help me?"
Chu Yan looked at him and nodded.
Xi Che's mood suddenly became very complicated. How could he be saved by Chu Qi again? "...It's a long story, but I owe you a favor again."
Seeing that he didn't want to say it, Chu Yan was disappointed and relieved for a moment - he wanted to know the secret in Xi Che's heart, but at the same time he didn't want him to tell him so simply in his present state. Think about it, if Xi Che was unwilling to tell "Chu Yan" what was in his heart, but told another man, wouldn't that be a very depressing thing.
"What are you talking about owing someone a favor? We were classmates. How could I just stand by and watch you get into trouble?"
He was right. Both Chu Yan and Chu Qi were classmates of Xi Che.
This man was so good at talking that Xi Che couldn't continue to speak coldly to him and could only smile at him.
Chu Yan originally wanted to take the opportunity to ask Xi Che to go with him to Xiaoyao Mountain. At this moment, he heard a loud gurgling sound. Chu Yan was stunned for a moment. Xi Che touched his stomach with a smile and said, "Oh, I'm hungry. How about we eat first?"
