In the conference room,
Yin Minglu was originally reviewing documents when his chief secretary and lover, Fu Jinxiu, brought him a cup of coffee. After setting down the coffee, he suddenly bent down, took off his glasses from his nose, and gave him a passionate kiss.
Seemingly bothered by his soft hair, he brushed aside the strands and, while kissing his cheek, the gentle kisses turned into somewhat intense nibbles. He whispered his name, “Minglu, Minglu…”
Yin Minglu was a bit bewildered, a bit shy, and the sudden kiss made him temporarily forget his work fatigue.
“Ah Xiu, why did you suddenly kiss me?”
Instinctively, he reached out, somewhat resisting. After all, they were in the office, what if there were paparazzi outside trying to take photos?
Even though they naturally came together since reaching adulthood, being affectionate privately still made his face a bit flushed.
But before his resisting hand could extend, Fu Jinxiu had already let go of him. Taking a step with his long legs, he walked towards the window.
Pulling the curtains closed shut out the birdsong and the fragrance of flowers outside. The whole conference room darkened a bit, but invisibly, it made the couple feel even more at ease.
Fu Jinxiu sat on the sofa, pulling Yin Minglu into an embrace.
His slender figure was tall and upright, dressed in a white shirt. Perhaps wanting to relax, he slid his long fingers to the collar, unbuttoning the top button just enough to reveal a portion of his fair neck.
The atmosphere, usually restrained, became slightly indulgent. Combined with the comforting smile on his face, it was downright enchanting.
Yin Minglu stopped resisting and merrily leaned in, planting a “smooch” on Fu Jinxiu’s collarbone, leaving a playful red mark with each sip.
Fu Jinxiu allowed him to play around, only teasingly complaining when his hair was tousled. He lifted him up and gave him a kiss, saying, “Is this your revenge for the obvious kisses?”
Truly, a vengeful character.
“I’m not that petty.”
Yin Minglu grumbled, then took the initiative to wrap his arms around his neck. The two of them continued their affectionate moment for a while before tidying up their clothes and pulling back the curtains.
The conference room was illuminated once again.
Fu Jinxiu remained the composed, considerate secretary. He smiled as he flipped through the calendar, “Tomorrow is my birthday.”
“Of course, Ah Xiu, I remember your birthday. I’ll accompany you home for dinner. Your mom really likes me, she might want to chat for an extra couple of hours, so we should head to your place early. After dinner, we can go to a concert, then shop, and after shopping, we can…”
Yin Minglu playfully listed the pre-planned itinerary with his fingers, as if he had it memorized backward.
Looking at his excited face, Fu Jinxiu couldn’t quite tell whether he was happy because of the upcoming break or excited about his birthday.
Regardless, it didn’t matter. Fu Jinxiu smiled, reminiscing about something from ten years ago.
There was a guy driving a small electric scooter, carrying him along. The whistling wind tousled the other’s clean and youthful cheeks. The guy even hummed a tune while taking him to the fountain park to make a wish.
And that singing fountain could be considered quite miraculous.
Ten years later, that person had been by his side all along.
On the night of Fu Jinxiu’s birthday, Yin Minglu had a dream.
In the dream, a cold and handsome monk stood atop a towering cliff, wielding a long sword. Below the cliff, there were rolling stones and tumultuous waves.
With a swing of his sword, the sun, moon, and stars shone brightly, and the notes of the musical scale resonated together, creating a magnificent and extraordinary scene.
The monk exuded no earthly aura, with long sleeves fluttering in the wind, as if he could cut through the void and depart at any moment.
Is this his past life?
He never expected his past life to be so cool.
Yin Minglu thought to himself, but his self-indulgence in appreciation was quickly interrupted by a series of clapping sounds, a small applause coming from someone beside him.
He lowered his head to see a little one with jet-black hair and snow-white skin. Despite walking in a wobbly manner, the little one reached out with a soft, tiny hand and clung to the monk’s leg with a satisfying “pat.”
The baby babbled in an incomprehensible, babyish language.
The monk bent down slightly, picked up the child, and the frosty aura around him dissipated.
The little child sat on the tall monk’s shoulders, chubby little hands wrapped around the monk’s neck, seeming quite secure.
A cute face with jade-like snow buried in the monk’s neck, appearing entirely reliant.
The duo, one big and one small, embraced each other in this way, quietly witnessing the ever-changing world, as if they had known each other for an eternity.
Unfortunately, when he woke up, everything was gone. Yin Minglu woke up feeling a bit disheartened and met the deep, dark eyes of the person beside him. Without thinking, he boasted, “Ah Xiu, do you know? I had a dream. I dreamt that in my past life, I was a formidable figure, and I even took in an adorable little baby as my disciple. As he grew up, he became so cute—thin eyebrows, big round eyes, and a little red mouth. In my past life, I seemed to be a domineering president, reluctant to let him go. So, he became my wife. We were a perfect match from birth.”
And then, the domineering president fell in love with me, like a sauce brewing.
He spoke with deep emotion, but the more Fu Jinxiu listened, the more suspicious it sounded. With a slightly awakened memory, he chuckled a few times, thinking this rascal really had a wild imagination.
His hand couldn’t help but slip into the other’s sleepwear, pinching his waist to give a little punishment.
Yin Minglu winced at the pinch, feeling a bit uncomfortable. He complained, “Ah Xiu, you pinched me!”
“Tomorrow, I’m going to tell your mom!”
Not even a decade into their relationship, and Ah Xiu was already getting physical!
Fu Jinxiu affectionately rubbed his reddened nose, gently yet assertively pulled the blanket over them, and said, “Sleep. You’re in your twenties; don’t let your mind wander.”
“Okay.”
Yin Minglu pouted, snuggling into his lover’s arms and then raising his small cup.
Back in the main god space, as Yin Minglu reviewed his recent resume, he deeply felt that he worked diligently, conscientiously, seriously, and willingly devoted himself. He made every effort to fulfill the original host’s every little wish, even approaching vacations with a full and positive mindset.
The final evaluation might not be perfect, but at least it was considered excellent.
Wow, I am indeed so dedicated. I’m super awesome.
He gave himself a little applause in his heart.
He couldn’t wait for the next task, whenever that might be!
Just as Yin Minglu turned to go back to his office, he wasn’t paying attention and bumped into someone.
When he raised his head and saw the person’s face, he froze, forgetting to move, as if the countless stars in the sky had all fallen into those endlessly deep black eyes.
As if a mermaid surfaced for the first time, encountering humans, falling into love.
Even though in dreams and reality, they had intertwined countless times.
All the memories of past lives flooded in, but still, it felt like the first time, a heart-pounding moment.
