Chapter 40: Whispering Sweet Nothings.

The smoothly moving car jolted slightly. As the driver’s hand on the steering wheel instinctively tightened, the vehicle nearly veered off course, but fortunately, he came to his senses and pulled it back.

The sudden curve in their path made the person sitting inside sway, and the weight pressing down on Yan Xingzhou seemed to become a little heavier.

In the blink of an eye, the driver’s face went blank, and he felt a layer of cold sweat break out on his back.

“Drive steady,” Ju Ze, sitting in the passenger seat, reminded him. His peripheral vision glanced to the rear, and he reached out in a timely manner to adjust the rearview mirror to the side.

The driver, with lingering fear, stammered, “…Ah, yes.”

Lin Xi was also dazed for a moment after hearing Yan Xingzhou’s words. The hand below him pushed up with a little force, but the grip on his chin did not loosen in the slightest, so his entire posture was frozen there.

The lingering sensation of the kiss just now still remained on their lips.

Both of them had drunk quite a bit tonight. Whether drunk or not, the slightly intoxicated atmosphere was inevitably extra alluring. At this moment, it was as if something had been faintly stirred in their hearts, and something had instantly fermented in the small space of the car.

“…”

From this angle, as Lin Xi lifted his eyes, he saw that smooth, sexy jawline come into view. His heterochromatic eyes narrowed slightly, and as if bewitched, he followed the force holding his chin and raised his head.

The already extremely ambiguous distance became even closer in an instant. The moment their lips brushed, their breaths mingled in an instant.

Unconsciously, both of their breaths had clearly become somewhat suppressed.

In the next moment, Lin Xi felt Yan Xingzhou’s fingertips gently stroke his chin. The distinct touch brought a faint itchiness. In a flash, the world turned upside down. With their positions reversed, he was already pressed down onto the car seat. The kiss that fell next was no longer satisfied with the light touch from before; the greedy lips and tongue charged straight in.

This was not the first time they had French kissed since revealing their identities, but compared to the cautiousness that came with having lost and regained each other, Yan Xingzhou’s actions at this moment were clearly much more direct and domineering. Soft gasps gradually filled every corner of the car. As desire was stirred, what was initially a one-sided demand gradually turned into a two-way give-and-take. In the overly heated entanglement, the hand Lin Xi had reached out had already stealthily unbuttoned Yan Xingzhou’s collar.

He had always felt that this man’s collarbone was the sexiest part of his body. With a forceful tug, the entire front of the shirt opened. His cool fingertips caressed down, the sensation lingering on the skin, making the entire touch seem even more sensitive.

By the time the kiss broke, a layer of misty vapor had risen in Lin Xi’s eyes from the intense feeling of suffocation.

He was pressed down on the seat by Yan Xingzhou, completely unable to move. As his messy hair fell, he tilted his head slightly, the color in his eyes shifting. “Isn’t this place a bit inappropriate, Director Yan?”

“I know, so I still have about 10 minutes of self-control,” Yan Xingzhou’s voice was surprisingly steady. Following this movement, he gently nibbled on Lin Xi’s earlobe. His hot breath gradually kissed down his neck. Feeling the person beneath him tremble slightly from the sensitivity, he repeatedly caressed his soft hair, as if to soothe Lin Xi, and even more so, as if trying hard to suppress himself. “So…”

His voice, by the end, was already stretched to the limit. “You have one last chance to refuse.”

A playful look flashed in Lin Xi’s eyes. “If I refuse, will you let me go?”

As his words fell, a brief, dead silence fell around them.

Finally, Yan Xingzhou’s voice sounded, “Perhaps, not.”

“Then the choice you’re giving me really lacks sincerity,” Lin Xi said with a laugh. He reached out a hand and caressed that extremely sexy face in front of him. “But, it seems I have no reason to refuse either.”

Caressing down bit by bit, he pulled Yan Xingzhou’s already open collar a little wider. At such a close distance, the tip of his nose gently brushed against his cheek. He paused, then said slowly, “After all, you also look very delicious, Director Yan.”

The car ride from the hotel back to the villa, which should have taken more than 20 minutes, was compressed to just over ten minutes by the driver’s frantic speeding. In this short period of time, he had even tragically reviewed his short life and at one point wished he was a space-type ability user, just so he could win this race for his life.

When the car finally came to a steady stop at the villa’s main gate, the driver still stared straight ahead, not daring to turn his head for even a glance.

It wasn’t until the sound of the rear car door closing again that he swallowed hard and collapsed, completely drained, into the driver’s seat.

Ju Ze had already pushed the rearview mirror back to its original angle. He glanced and happened to see the two now-empty seats in the back. Although there was some shock in his eyes, he was at least calm enough to push up the glasses on his nose and pat the driver’s shoulder in a gesture of comfort. “You’ve worked hard. Go back and rest.”

“O… Okay,” the driver stammered in response. The corners of his mouth twitched violently a couple of times, his expression still carrying the tragic after-effects of his ordeal.

Go back and rest? How the hell could he possibly sleep tonight?!

In the empty villa, only the sound of hurried footsteps going upstairs remained.

Finally, it ended with the crisp sound of a bedroom door slamming shut.

On the messy large bed, only two entangled figures remained. The bedding had long been scattered to the side. Both of their collars had been torn open earlier. During their kisses, a thin sheen of sweat had instantly soaked their shirts through, making both of them look, at a glance, disheveled in a way they never were on a normal day.

Whispering sweet nothings.

Pressed down on the bed, a slight flush also appeared around Lin Xi’s heterochromatic pupils.

The lights were not on, but this expression, seen under the faint moonlight, only appeared all the more alluring.

Yan Xingzhou’s hand caressed every inch of Lin Xi’s face, and the kisses he placed on his body became more and more urgent.

With the distinct rise and fall of his chest, Lin Xi’s voice also carried a hint of suppression. “You should… wait a moment…”

Yan Xingzhou’s buried face slowly lifted. “Wait for what?”

Lin Xi’s hands were held high above his head, pressed tightly against the bed by Yan Xingzhou. Underneath their pressed-together bodies, he could clearly feel the other’s equally rapid heartbeat. “…I just… don’t have a habit… of being spied on… in private.”

He saw the man in front of him frown slightly in confusion, and he just silently curled the corner of his lips.

He could vaguely feel that a certain contaminant had already realized something. From a state of complete silence since leaving the venue, it let out a weak voice: [Actually, you can just pretend I don’t exist… Damn it, for a man, you’ll regret this, Lin Xi… Bastard, you really are a bast—!]

The subsequent curses didn’t have a chance to come out before they were instantly silenced by an invisible force.

His entire mind became completely quiet. Lin Xi slowly lifted his eyelids, arched his body slightly, and fiercely kissed the other’s lips. “Alright, let’s continue.”

His hands were still under Yan Xingzhou’s control, so at this moment, he could only give a clear response in this way.

After one kiss, he continued to kiss his way down from his lips.

He could gradually feel the body above him clearly tense up even more, and with it, something in the surrounding air faintly began to circulate.

Lin Xi slowly lifted his eyes. Feeling the surrounding room gradually twist and blur, he breathed out, panting slightly, “…Your ability seems a little unstable, mm—!”

The rest of his words were completely blocked by the force that fell on his waist. A strange feeling surged up, causing his entire body to subconsciously tremble slightly.

“Don’t worry about these insignificant things.”

Yan Xingzhou kissed him again. This action was more chaotic than any before, and frequently filled with a stronger sense of oppression. All the moonlight was unknowingly blocked out. In an instant, the originally exquisitely decorated room was completely swallowed by a patch of chaos, making the two seem as if they were in a void, where only their entanglement on the bed seemed real and intimate.

The hand on his waist moved down bit by bit. The sound of a zipper being pulled was clearly heard amidst the low pants.

Yan Xingzhou slowly lowered his eyes. With his back to the light, his expression was plunged into darkness. The release of his emotions did not stop in the slightest, and his voice was extremely hoarse with suppression. “This relationship we have now… so, it’s considered lovers?”

Lin Xi could clearly feel Yan Xingzhou’s every movement.

Probably because he wasn’t suppressing his emotions at all, the moment the thick ability fluctuations coiled around them, like an invisible signal, it also mobilized the activity of every cell in his body.

A light mist had already hung on his eyelashes, and the frequency of his breathing had unknowingly quickened. His now-free hands rested against Yan Xingzhou’s chest without any force. He swallowed hard a couple of times. “You really are, the same as before… haggling over every ounce.”

Yan Xingzhou seemed not to hear this complaint, only kissing him more and more intensely. “So, it’s a lover’s relationship… hm? Is it, lovers?”

The state of being soaked through made the two seem as if they were immersed in water. Compared to the intermittent words, most of their communication was through their bodies.

The constantly surging electric current made Lin Xi arch his neck back in pleasure. After a long while, under Yan Xingzhou’s repeated questioning, he finally said sincerely, “Yan Xingzhou, you’re probably… mm, really gone quite mad.”

The movements on him seemed to pause subtly for a moment. Then, his earlobe was nibbled, not too lightly and not too heavily. A low laugh sounded, as if from a distant nightmare. “Heh, so what… are you afraid?”

It seemed as if a gust of wind suddenly swept through the surroundings. In that instant, it was as if thousands of stars had fallen from this chaotic void.

Lin Xi looked straight at the intense, deep emotions in those eyes. Before the surrounding ability fluctuations became even more frantic, he tried his best to lift his head and, in this close posture, kissed Yan Xingzhou from bottom to top.

Constant, dense, light kisses, like a comfort for each other’s emotions, and also like a release of their own desires.

Panting sounds instantly filled the entire enclosed space, carrying Lin Xi’s low, hoarse words, and a faint, unreadable smile. “How could I… possibly… be afraid of you…”

After all, in comparison.

He, who was no longer human at all, was more like the real monster.
