Senior Jiang Xuan is very regretful that he didn’t get a kiss from Junior Lin Zimao, the nurse’s loud voice directly destroyed the atmosphere that they had just built up with great difficulty, so they had no choice but to arrange to go back to the hospital.
Since Jiaoyan is still waiting for surgery, the love affair1風花雪月 (fēng huā xuě yuè): wind, flower, snow and moon, trite poetry subject (idiom); effete language without substance; love affair; romance is in the air; dissipated life; debaucherous life; Originally refers to the natural scenery often described in old poems, later become metaphor about a poem with a pile of words, the content is poor and empty, it also refers to the matter of love or the lustful life. between Jiang Xuan and Lin Zimao, and the whisper of sweet nothings will have to be postponed.
Now Jiaoyan is the top priority.
After Lin Zimao signed the operation form, he told Jiang Xuan about Jiaoyan’s hind legs.
Jiang Xuan was a little scared: “Is it because I always take it out to lose weight, which makes its condition worse?”
Lin Zimao: “It may have nothing to do with this, it never healed properly to begin with, but fortunately I brought it for a check-up today, it must be unable to bear the pain, so it felt uncomfortable, the doctor said it could be affected by the weather, just like those people in the past who suffer from rheumatism, it feel uncomfortable on rainy days.” He blamed himself a little, “I was careless, I never noticed it before.”
Jiang Xuan quietly held his hand: “It’s okay, it’ll be fine after the surgery, it’ll only take a moment.”
Lin Zimao nodded, it’s actually a minor surgery.
They gave Jiaoyan general anesthesia, and the surgery took about half an hour to remove the necrotic bone.
Jiang Xuan went to the 24-hour self-service machine next door and bought two sandwiches, one for each person.
“Fill your stomach first, go back tonight and get something else.”
He hadn’t eaten any of Jiang Xuan’s food for two or three days, Lin Zimao suddenly looked forward to it, he was no longer nervous about Jiaoyan.
It’s a good thing that eating can relieve the mood, Jiang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Xuan thought, if he didn’t come today, Lin Zimao would be hungry here waiting for Jiaoyan to have surgery, which is quite pitiful when he think about it.
An hour later, they brought Jiaoyan, whose hind leg was bandaged, the fur on the wound was shaved, which made it look kind of ugly.
The wound will heal in half an hour, but the bones still need to heal slowly, and it may take half a month to a month, during which time they don’t need to do anything, just feed Jiaoyan well.
At this time, Jiaoyan, who was wearing an Elizabethan collar2伊麗莎白頭套 (Yī lì shā bái tóu tào): Elizabethan collar, E collar or pet cone (sometimes humorously called a treat funnel, pet lamp-shade, pet radar dish, dog-saver, or cone of shame), a protective medical device worn by an animal, usually a cat or dog. Shaped like a truncated cone, its purpose is to prevent the animal from biting or licking at its body or scratching at its head or neck while wounds or injuries heal. The collars are named from the ruffs worn in the Elizabethan era., sat in the car on the way back, its eyes were full of grievances, it doesn’t like wearing the collar, which makes it feel uncomfortable.
Jiang Xuan touched its big head and said: “You can take it off after your wound has completely healed, it will only take half an hour.”
Lin Zimao said: “It doesn’t understand.”
Jiang Xuan: “It doesn’t matter, it’s fine as long as it feels that we need it.”
Lin Zimao thought that Jiang Xuan was really gentle.
After staying in the pet hospital for nearly three hours, Lin Zimao and Jiaoyan finally arrived home.
After returning home, Jiang Xuan let Jiaoyan out and let it play by itself.
It tried to lick its fur, but after licking for a long time, it only licked the collar, not the wounds, when he see it, Lin Zimao really wanted to laugh at it.
Jiang Xuan took the initiative to change Jiaoyan’s drinking water, and then went into the kitchen to get something to eat.
After the two reconciled, everything was pleasing to the eye, and Lin Zimao was also interested in everything, he saw a box of mousse cake on the table.
He carried it into the kitchen and asked Jiang Xuan: “Did you buy it for me?”
Jiang Xuan also didn’t feel embarrassed: “Yes, I just came back and found that you were gone, I thought you ran away from home, so I forgot to put it in the refrigerator.”
Lin Zimao didn’t put it in the refrigerator, but opened the box, took out the fork and fed the first bite to Jiang Xuan’s mouth.
Jiang Xuan had water on his hands, so he go along the flow and bite the fork, looking at Lin Zimao, he said: “The first time you came back and bought the cake, you told me to eat the cake with the person I like that day.”
Lin Zimao ate a small piece with the same fork: “Um?”
Jiang Xuan decided to tell him the truth: “I responded you at that time.”
Lin Zimao’s memory was pretty good, he recalled that Jiang Xuan did eat cake with him that day, and even touched the corner of his mouth with his finger, that night he had a charming dream, now that Jiang Xuan mentioned it again, he couldn’t help but think of that night’s dream.
Lin Zimao decisively put down his fork, supported himself with both hands on the edge of the kitchen table, leaned half of his body forward, and kissed Jiang Xuan hard on the lips.
They haven’t kissed for several days, really miss it very much.
“A little creamy.” Jiang Xuan licked the corner of his mouth.
Lin Zimao was fascinated by his action and warned him: “Senior, if you lick the corner of your mouth again, maybe we won’t have to eat midnight snacks.”
Jiang Xuan stared at him with burning eyes: “You can eat it, I can feed you in another way.”
Although Lin Zimao often listens to old men telling dirty jokes, and he was influenced by the surrounding environment3耳濡目染 (ěr rú mù rǎn): to be influenced by the surrounding environment; imperceptibly influenced by what one constantly sees and hears; shaped by the environment; The ears often hear, and the eyes often see, unknowingly affected., and can understand it, when Jiang Xuan said this, he began to think differently, in the end, he had never had any experience, and his face felt slightly hot.
“Senior Jiang Xuan, you learned badly, who did you learn it from?”
“Men don’t need to learn to be able to do it.” Jiang Xuan said confidently, and even gave Lin Zimao a charming smile.
It has to be said that the confident Jiang Xuan really captivates Lin Zimao, when he looks at him, he can’t take his eyes off him4目不轉睛 (mù bù zhuǎn jīng): unable to take one’s eyes off (idiom); to gaze steadily; to stare; look attentively; to gaze into each other’s eyes; to not take their eyes off of each other., especially because he also has a mesmerizing face that can cause people’s spirit and soul upside down5神魂顛倒 (shén hún diān dǎo): lit. spirit and soul upside down (idiom); infatuated and head over heels in love; fascinated; captivated; be in a confused state of mind; (sometimes derogatory) possessed; obsessed; From Stories to Awaken the World: 小娘們多有愛他的，奉得神魂顛倒，連家裡也不思想。, Young ladies fell in love with him, becoming so obsessed with him that they didn’t think of their own families., his expressive expressions make Lin Zimao even more obsessed, it seems like he won’t be able to quit in this lifetime, it’s becoming too addictive.
“I can do it too.” Lin Zimao muttered in a low voice.
Jiang Xuan chuckled softly.
The two of them ate some ready-made noodles, which made them easier to digest at night.
The wound on Jiaoyan’s leg has healed, and the collar can be taken off, however, Lin Zimao loved to tease it, after taking it off, he put it back on, and then took it off and put it back on again, just to see the change in its eyes when it was wearing the collar and when it wasn’t.
Finally, Lin Zimao came to a conclusion and showed off to Jiang Xuan: “I found out that Jiaoyan is a drama queen.”
Jiang Xuan picked up Jiaoyan, who had been tortured by him, then sat down beside Lin Zimao and said: “Like father, like son6有其父必有其子 (yǒu qí fù bì yǒu qí zǐ): like father, like son (idiom); like father, like child; Alt. 有其母必有其子 (yǒu qí mǔ bì yǒu qí zǐ), like mother, like child..”

Jiang Xuan moved back: “Not at all, I’m just saying that Jiaoyan’s Dad is a drama queen.”
“Oh, everyone in the forum assumes that you are Jiaoyan’s Dad.” Lin Zimao replied.
Jiang Xuan didn’t expect Lin Zimao to come up with this move: “That’s okay, I was also forced to act in a play by someone.”
Lin Zimao sat up, faced Jiang Xuan, and came closer to him: “Then will you still act with me?”
Jiang Xuan certainly has no reason to refuse: “Act, I will cooperate with you in whatever you want to act, can you first make up for the kiss you owe me tonight?”
Lin Zimao peck8啾 (jiū): T/N: The author actually use twitter; chirp, but it feels strange, chirping/tweeting on his lips? I opted to translate it as peck. on his lips, and then peck it again.
A kiss like dragonfly touches the water lightly obviously not enough to satisfy Senior Jiang Xuan’s needs.
Jiang Xuan turned from passive to active, closing the distance between him and Lin Zimao, deepening the kiss.
As their emotion deepened, the two people breathing became more and more heavy, as if they wanted to make up for the kisses they had missed in the past few days.
Lin Zimao was pressed down on the sofa by Jiang Xuan, perhaps kissing could not satisfy Senior Jiang Xuan, he feels that he wanted more.
His kisses traveled downward, kissing where he wanted to kiss.
Lin Zimao didn’t refuse, he likes to cuddle with Jiang Xuan intimately, the closeness of his skin could make him feel more warmth.
Time is precious, and neither Jiang Xuan nor Lin Zimao wasted it.
The first exchange went well, just one more step to go.
The two took a shower in the bathroom on the first floor, then wrapped themselves in blankets and sat together in front of the floor-to-ceiling window watching the falling snowflakes, Jiaoyan sat on the side and licked its plucked hind legs.
Jiang Xuan asked Lin Zimao: “Can we still watch the snow together next year?”
Lin Zimao affirmed: “Yes.” He turned around and kissed Jiang Xuan on the corner of his lips, “Have confidence in yourself.”
Jiang Xuan kissed the side of his face in return: “Last time you said you wanted to give me an intimate name, have you thought about it?”
Lin Zimao thought for a moment: “I like to call you senior, my senior who belongs to me alone.”
Jiang Xuan: “Then you’re my baby that belongs to me alone.”
Lin Zimao discovered Jiang Xuan’s love talk skills, which made people’s ears burn: “You are so sappy.”
Jiang Xuan: “I’d rather hear you call me something more sappy.”
Lin Zimao: “For example?”
Jiang Xuan: “Husband?”
Lin Zimao: “Then, who was more awesome just now?”
Jiang Xuan: “Me, right?”
Lin Zimao: “It’s me!”
Jiang Xuan: “But my time is longer than you.”
Lin Zimao looked at him with surprise: “Why are you still counting?”
Jiang Xuan put his hand on his chest: “I know it in my heart9心裡有數 (xīn lǐ yǒu shù): lit. to have a number in one’s heart; to know the score (idiom); to be well aware of the situation; to know very well in one’s heart (e.g. what to do next, whether it is likely to succeed, etc.)..”
Under the blanket, neither of them had any clothes on, what Lin Zimao touched was his warm skin, and there was also a faint hint of chest muscles, he didn’t hold back…
Jiang Xuan’s eyes became a little dangerous.
But in the end, it didn’t go any further, both of them had to go to class tomorrow!
However, Jiang Xuan didn’t return to his room tonight, he pushed Jiaoyan away, and occupied the position of Lin Zimao’s other pillow.
It was the first time they slept together, they were a little excited at first, then they probably relaxed, and before they knew it, they fell asleep holding hands.
The next morning.
When Lin Zimao woke up, he realized that he was not wearing any clothes, and then he remembered that they had slept together last night, and it was a bit hot, so he took off his clothes.
There was only one lazy cat next to the pillow, Lin Zimao kissed Jiaoyan and looked at its hind leg again, there didn’t seem to be any major problems, today, it didn’t have the same weak energy as it had yesterday.
Lin Zimao took a shower and changed his clothes, when he went downstairs, he saw that Jiang Xuan had brought out a pot of fragrant noodles, he stood in front of the window admiring the pure white world wrapped in silver outside.
Overnight, it was as if the planet had changed.
It is indeed a capital planet where one can enjoy the scenery all year round10一年四季 (yī nián sì jì): all year round; during the four seasons of the year; throughout the year..
Jiaoyan jumped onto the chair, and waited for Jiang Xuan to open a can for it.
Lin Zimao also sat in his own exclusive seat, waiting for his breakfast.
It was noodle casserole11砂鍋面條 (shāguō miàntiáo): Noodle casserole. 
in the morning.
It’s something Lin Zimao hasn’t eaten before.
The first bite, fragrant.
The second bite, still fragrant.
The third bite, don’t even want to say anything anymore.
It can be seen that as long as Jiang Xuan had the intention, no one can escape from his grasp.
Lin Zimao asked him: “You don’t bring lunch at noon, do you?”
Jiang Xuan: “Don’t bring it, won’t eat at school at noon.”
Lin Zimao let out a disappointed ah, and bit into a fish ball: “It’s delicious.” He raised his head again and asked Jiang Xuan, “Then, what are you doing at noon?” He rarely asked Jiang Xuan about his schedule, but after last night, the relationship between the two became closer.
Jiang Xuan: “As contestants, we all have to go to the opening ceremony of the design competition.”
Lin Zimao: “I also want to see you demonstrate the model.”
Jiang Xuan: “It’s an Alliance-wide mecha design competition, the result won’t come out that quickly, we’ll have to wait until thirty people are selected in the preliminary round, only then will I go on stage to give a speech, probably before the Chinese New Year, if I make it to the final round.”
“You’ll definitely make it.” Lin Zimao was even more confident than Jiang Xuan.
Jiang Xuan likes to see his eyes shining, and wants to kiss him.
It’s snowing today, so Lin Zimao wears thicker clothes when going out, he still wants to squeeze into the bus, and Jiang Xuan can’t do anything about him either.
Before going out, Lin Zimao suddenly hugged Jiang Xuan, kissed him, and said quickly: “I forgot to tell you last night, I don’t just like your face, what I like more is you as a person.”
“Don’t sell yourself short12妄自菲薄 (wàng zì fěi bó): to be unduly humble (idiom); to undervalue oneself; improperly belittle oneself; underestimate one’s own capabilities; look down upon oneself; to excessively see oneself as inferior; to look down upon oneself excessively; Describe low self-esteem; From Chu Shi Biao by Zhuge Liang: 誠宜開張聖聽，以光先帝遺德，恢弘志士之氣，不宜妄自菲薄，引喻失義，以塞忠諫之路也。, It is advisable to open up sacred hearing, in order to light up the legacy of the late emperor, and restore the spirit of ambition, it is not advisable to belittle yourself, cite the wrong words, and block the way of loyalty and admonition., Senior, I like you very much.”
While Jiang Xuan was in a daze, Lin Zimao had already run away.
Turns out, Lin Zimao didn’t just like his face, and he wasn’t just indulging in his own wishful thinking13自作多情 (zì zuò duō qíng): to display affection regardless of whether the other party accepts it; to imagine that one’s affection is reciprocated; (in general) to indulge in one’s own wishful thinking; to flatter oneself; to shower affection on an uninterested party; Usually it refers to a one-side romance, but depending on the context, its meaning can also extend to other things..
Jiang Xuan stroked his pounding heart, always ran away after teasing people!
