Chapter 70: I Have Been Harmed by Wine and Lust; From Today On, I Swear Off Alcohol!
Actually, because he had relieved himself once, Chi Wang wasn’t feeling very restless.
But due to his rough technique, it didn’t feel particularly satisfying.
This is the harm of early abstinence: once you taste the sweetness, the descent into indulgence accelerates.
Chi Wang reflected deeply on himself, but he found that self-reflection was useless.
He felt Xie Sicheng getting into bed; the covers lifted, and with a crisp “click,” the lights went out.
Xie’s unhurried voice sounded, “Are you feeling hot?”
Chi Wang instinctively replied, “No, not hot.”
Wait, why was he asking this question?
Hearing his response, Xie said blandly, “Hmm,” turned over, and said nothing more.
Chi Wang poked his head out from under the thin blanket, his arm resting outside. Unintentionally, he touched Xie’s shoulder and back, discovering that Xie was sleeping with his back to him, most of his bare back exposed.
Suddenly, he recalled that morning when Xie had also slept with his back to him, revealing a large expanse of cool, fair skin. Though his skin looked delicate, it had clear and beautiful muscle lines, combining aesthetic appeal and strength. At first glance, it was a very attractive body.
Xie didn’t move when he was touched, only asking, “What’s wrong?”
Chi Wang said, “Nothing, I just can’t sleep.”
Xie turned over and held Chi Wang’s hand, squeezing it in his palm. “Because of what happened today?”
Chi Wang felt his fingers itch under the squeeze. He hadn’t noticed when they shook hands before, but now that he was touching him, he realized that Xie’s hands had thin calluses.
…Didn’t he say he wouldn’t touch me?
In the darkness, Chi Wang’s cheeks were slightly red. He didn’t mention that Xie was breaking his word; instead, he answered a different question: “Why do you have so many calluses on your hands?”
Chi Wang had learned many things, but only had slight calluses on his fingertips. His hands were still very fair and soft.
Xie replied, “I used to take a lot of classes.”
Curious, Chi Wang asked, “Like what?”
Xie said, “Equestrianism, shooting, boxing, and the like.”
Chi Wang was envious. “You’ve learned so much.”
These all required money.
Xie said, “Having more skills doesn’t weigh you down.”
Chi Wang exclaimed, “Wow! I think so too.”
They resonated with each other. “What else? What other things have you learned?” Chi Wang asked.
Xie suspected that Chi Wang wanted to “stock up on goods.” “…I’ve also learned fencing, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Sanda, chess, and so on.”
Chi Wang said admiringly, “You’ve learned so much; that’s amazing. No wonder you have such a bearing.”
Xie: “…What kind of bearing?”
Chi Wang said, “The aura of someone who can beat people to death.”
Xie: “…”
Chi Wang thought to himself that if he were to fight Xie, he’d probably lose.
His own skills were street-fighting moves honed in brawls, definitely not as good as Xie’s formal training.
Excitedly, Chi Wang said, “We can spar sometime.”
Xie asked, “What have you learned?”
Chi Wang replied, “Nothing much. My special move is ‘Stealing the Peach.'”
Xie: “…Let’s discuss it another time. Let’s sleep now.”
Saying that, he let go of Chi Wang’s hand and placed his own hands properly folded over his abdomen.
Chi Wang: “…Oh.”
He felt an indescribable sense of loss.
Xie said it was time to sleep, but Chi Wang still couldn’t fall asleep.
He closed his eyes and tried to sleep.
In the darkness, Xie’s breathing was clear. Chi Wang turned over, his back facing Xie.
Perhaps because of the “waste materials” in his mind, his previously calm body began to feel restless.
Chi Wang: “…”
He thought, some things really can’t be touched at all; once you do, you fall into depravity.
Chi Wang wrestled with himself internally, and finally, thick-skinned, he reached out and poked Xie, his voice a few notches softer. “Senior, are you asleep?”
Xie’s cool voice sounded, “Not yet.”
He paused. “What’s wrong?”
Chi Wang whispered, “…I’m hot.”
Xie was silent for a moment, then reached out to turn on the light and lowered the air conditioning temperature a bit. “Is 30 degrees okay?”
Chi Wang said shyly, “Yes.”
Xie turned off the light. “Sleep.”
Chi Wang: “…”
He shyly hinted, “Still a bit hot.”
In the darkness, the corners of Xie’s mouth lifted slightly. “It can’t go any lower; you’ll catch a cold.”
Chi Wang: “…”
Scratches head
After a moment of silence, Chi Wang finally spoke frankly, “I want to learn from you.”
Xie asked, “Learn what?”
Chi Wang: “…”
The court officials are silent
Chi Wang’s cheeks were burning red, his voice hoarse as he mumbled, “That skill… why are you so proficient at it?”
Xie: “What skill?”
Chi Wang: “…”
He suspected Xie was playing dumb, but he had no proof.
Resolutely, Chi Wang said, “You know, the one you used on me three times.”
Xie: “Oh.”
Oh what? Pretending to be a saint?
Grumbles
Chi Wang questioned, “Why are you so good at it?”
Xie said, “Once you understand one thing, everything else follows.”
Chi Wang: “…”
Can that phrase be used here? What else does it connect to??
As he thought this, he voiced the question.
Xie said, “Petting cats.”
Chi Wang: “?”
His attention diverted, Chi Wang asked, “You like cats?”
Xie: “Yes, I’ve kept several at home.”
Chi Wang asked, “What kind of cats?”
Xie said, “Tabby cats, British Shorthairs—my mom kept them.”
Chi Wang: “Oh…”
Chi Wang: “…Will you teach me?”
He was being thick-skinned.
So embarrassing.
Chi Wang felt his moral baseline was breaking.
But then he thought, isn’t a moral baseline meant to be broken? (x)
Chi Wang: “…”
Fine, let’s just go with it.
Chi Wang summoned his courage and said dominantly, “Teach me now.”
Xie didn’t say anything, just obediently reached out.
At this point, Chi Wang felt a bit scared. “Hey, wait, don’t take off my pants.”
Xie moved closer. Chi Wang turned over, his back pressed against Xie’s broad chest, his whole body almost nestled in his arms.
Xie’s voice was low and husky, “You tried to handle it yourself in the bathroom?”
Chi Wang was startled, instinctively saying, “How did you know?”
Xie said, “I can smell it.”
Chi Wang: “…”
He asked awkwardly, “Is it like this every time?”
Xie: “Yes.”
Chi Wang: “…”
The first time, he thought he hadn’t washed properly. Afterwards, whenever he handled himself, he’d carefully wash again, even using body wash multiple times. How did Xie still know?
Chi Wang was puzzled, but soon couldn’t think anymore. Xie wrapped an arm around his waist, his fingers lightly touching and stroking his abdomen—a move that should have been a sensitive spot for Chi Wang, who was very protective of his belly.
But now he was like a panda attracted by “Forgotten Cub Milk” and forgot about his cub, only focusing on drinking, completely ignoring that Xie was touching his sensitive area.
Just like last time, he clenched his hand into a fist and bit down, not wanting to make any noise.
But Xie whispered in his ear, “Didn’t you say you wanted to learn? Are you paying attention?”
Chi Wang trembled all over, his voice shaking, “…I am learning. Slow down; you’re too fast.”
Xie’s voice remained cool but, if you listened carefully, carried a hoarse desire. “This is already the slowest.”
Chi Wang took a deep breath, his whole body breaking out in a fine sweat. The bed became sticky and damp; his legs trembled uncontrollably, kicking the quilt to the foot of the bed.
Faint moonlight filtered through the thin gauze curtains, casting a soft glow in the room. One could vaguely see a pair of fair, slender legs pressed between another pair of long legs. The relatively petite young man was almost entirely nestled in the other’s broad embrace, his whole body trembling.
His clothes gradually loosened and fell open, revealing Chi Wang’s rounded abdomen. A large hand rested on his belly, gently stroking. Compared to the gentle movements on his abdomen, the actions below were more intense, like a raging storm, thunderous and overwhelming, shaking the earth and moving mountains, as if to destroy the world.
Chi Wang: “…”
After it was over, Chi Wang was dumbfounded.
So Xie had been holding back last time.
Perhaps because he was usually abstinent, his reactions were particularly strong?
Chi Wang didn’t understand; in any case, he was dazed. He didn’t even notice that Xie had subtly taken advantage of him.
This time, Xie was very restrained. After helping him relieve once, he let go.
In the darkness, Xie carefully wiped him clean with wet wipes, then, in the dimness, pulled up his pajama pants, buttoned his top one by one, and leaned in to listen to his belly—the baby was very quiet, showing no intention of acknowledging him.
Without any expression, Xie withdrew, gently pulling down Chi Wang’s pajama top to cover his stomach, and then lifted the clean quilt to tuck him in snugly.
After Chi Wang came back to his senses, he realized he was alone in bed; Xie was nowhere to be seen.
He reached out and turned on the nightlight, feeling soft and weak all over. The restlessness had long disappeared, replaced by a lazy satisfaction—a feeling he’d never experienced when he took care of himself.
So this could be so enjoyable.
Chi Wang felt he was becoming like Lü Bu, thinking, “I have been harmed by wine and lust, to such a state of weakness. From today on, I swear off alcohol!”6

Xie didn’t turn on the lights; he returned after washing his hands in the bathroom. Seeing that Chi Wang had turned on the nightlight, he got into bed nonchalantly and lay down.
Chi Wang: “…”
What’s with his mentality, sleeping while being aroused?
Xie asked him, “Did you learn?”
Chi Wang: “…”
Tears streaming down face
Chi Wang tried to salvage, “Actually, I don’t really want to learn anymore.”
Xie’s tone was calm, “If you can’t learn, I can teach you every day.”
Chi Wang closed his eyes, shrinking into the quilt, and whispered, “Okay.”
It’s normal to be like this during pregnancy; it won’t be like this in the future.
