Chapter 96   - Killed and silenced.

Yu Yan had seen so many video clips featuring him and Yi Chen, and had also read all kinds of H novels with the two of them starring as the protagonists. He had thought that he had seen every possible kind of scene that could occur.

But in none of those H novels was it written that Yi Chen would plaster himself right by his ear and bewitch him with a half-hoarse and deep voice—

“Help me put it on.”

He almost ascended right then and there.

It was painful at first. Yu Yan buried his face in the pillow and suspected whether he would end up tearing the pillow apart with his hands or not.

Yi Chen heard the groans Yu Yan couldn’t help but let out, and felt distressed. “Does it hurt? Then let’s wait first…”

Yu Yan didn’t cry out that it hurt because he was afraid that Yi Chen would stop if he did so. If they stopped when they had already gotten to this point, then it would be like abandoning all the progress they had made.

So instead, he lied while crying out, “It doesn’t hurt, it feels very good.”

Yi Chen knew he was lying to him.

But this kind of a cry was too seductive, and he lowered his head to give him a kiss. “Not stopping now. You endure it, and I’ll admit my wrongs to you later.”

……

Yi Chen was as gentle as possible, but in the end, Yu Yan still sported some marks on his body.

He had held back before, but as they had progressed, his hands had unconsciously gripped harder, and since Yu Yan’s waist was so skinny, there were now some light blue marks there.

He licked at one of the marks, and helped Yu Yan clean up. “I’m sorry, I hurt you.”

Yu Yan was so tired he couldn’t even move. He felt that his whole body was aching, and he didn’t even want to raise his hand.

However, upon hearing this, he gathered up his energy and shook Yi Chen’s fingers a bit. “Doesn’t hurt, feels good.”

Yi Chen’s lips curled as he continued tidying up with his hands.

“Really,” Yu Yan said, “I’m not deceiving you. At first it did hurt a bit, but after…”

His face went red, but he said frankly, “It—it just felt really good.”

Yi Chen’s heart had gone so soft that he nearly wanted to force him to do it again.

……

Yi Chen helped Yu Yan clean up and went to the bathroom, preparing to wash himself.

A different kind of smell lingered in the room. Although Yu Yan was tired, he couldn’t go to sleep at all.

He endured the aches and pains in his muscles and turned around. As he listened to the sound of water in the bathroom, he couldn’t stop smiling at all.

Only after turning around did he discover that his cellphone, which was lying on the table, had lit up. He picked it up, glanced at the screen, and saw that someone in the 1YanTang group chat had @ him.

When Tuantuan and the others had seen Yu Yan’s popularity score surpass Good Show’s, they had sent congratulatory messages in the group chat. Yu Yan checked the timestamp; the messages were already two hours old. He hurried to open the chat box and then replied with a few thanks.

It was already midnight. The two girls, Tuantuan and Lulu, didn’t have the habit of staying up late. Only the other male anchor in the group, Sheepy, was still awake.

Sheepy: Bro, why are you chatting so late? They’re all asleep.

Yu Yan: I was busy before… Are you still livestreaming?

Sheepy: No, just ended the stream. [picture] I’m having a midnight snack.

Yu Yan: [drooling.JPG]

Yu Yan wasn’t thinking of anything at first, but once he saw the seafood barbecue in the picture, he couldn’t help but gulp and swallow his saliva a few times.

The exercise just now had consumed too much energy. That half a bowl of noodles with vegetables and meat he had had for dinner had already been completely digested.

He looked at the time. It was the middle of the night, so he would have to wait a really long time for takeout, and he was too lazy to cook something himself…

He suddenly thought of the cake in the refrigerator.

The cake was too sweet to be a midnight snack. He hesitated for a bit before going to WeChat and opening up Yi Ran’s chat box.

Yu Yan: Yi Ran, are you asleep?

The other side replied extremely quickly.

Yi Ran: Nah, I haven’t come home yet. What’s the matter?

Yu Yan: Nothing much, just letting you know that there’s a cake in the fridge. You can eat some if you get hungry. There’s a lot left.

Yi Ran: ???

Yi Ran: !!

Yi Ran: WTF! Sister-in-law, have you come to Jincheng?! Are you in my Ge’s house?

Yu Yan: …Sister-in-law?

Yi Ran: Yeah. Don’t be shy, I know all about it.

Yi Ran: I’m just saying. Heh, I even went to your livestream before wanting to throw some stuff at you. I actually have a pretty big balance on the platform, and StarTV also sends me a big pile of random gifts every month. I’ve been saving up for a long time to give it all to you, but only found that you hadn’t started livestreaming at that time.

Yu Yan: Don’t waste money. Half of the money spent on the gift gets deducted and goes towards the platform, only half of it comes to me.

Yi Ran: Then that counts as giving it to my Ge too. That’s fine, I’m clear that however the money goes round and round, it’s still within our family.

Yu Yan: …

Yu Yan: !!!!“I was joking about that.” Yu Yan said seriously, “I just can’t give you such expensive gifts every time… Cakes can be ordered every day though.”

Yi Chen listened to him without interrupting, the expression in his eyes growing gentler with each word.

“…… And there’s a computer here, so it’s fine if I don’t go back for the time being.” Yu Yan said this and then asked him, “Is that okay?”

Yi Chen sighed and hugged him a bit tighter. magic

“Don’t make a fuss, it’s not like I’m a little kid, I don’t need to celebrate my birthday.” He said, “Can you stay in Jincheng a bit longer this time?”

Yu Yan had been talking for a long time, and his eyelids were a little heavy by now. He yawned and answered, “But I may need to meet with the lawyer a few more times…”

“That’s fine, just use video-calls.” Yi Chen said, “If there really are any documents you need to sign, you fly out that day, and then come back on the same day. I’ll buy the ticket for you and will also take you to the airport… I can even accompany you when you go back there.”

Yu Yan closed his eyes and immersed himself in sleep. Upon hearing the last part, he could not help laughing. “Okay.”

In fact, the party over at Mo Nancheng’s had ended a long time ago, but Yi Ran had managed, with great difficulty, to borrow the fastest sports car from his Ge’s garage, so of course, he had to stroll around for a while.

He made some plans with a few friends and went around to several nightclubs with them.

After going through another one, a friend asked, “What’s the matter with you? Usually, you’re always yelling that there’s a guard at the entrance at home, and every time before ten o’clock, you run home like there’s a ghost chasing after your ass. It’s almost three o’clock today, and you’re still hanging out with us?”

Yi Ran clicked his tongue and said, “What do you know, my Ge is more terrifying than any ghost.”

“Then you’re still not going back now?”

Yi Ran said, “No, it all depends on the situation . If I go back early today, my Ge will most probably hack me to pieces.”

“What’s the matter?” asked his friend.

Yi Ran lifted his eyebrows, winked, and let out a “hehe” as he said, “My sister-in-law has made a rare trip here to see my Ge. How can I disturb them…”

Arriving at a great understanding, his friend nodded his head with a clear smile.

Yi Ran then said, “How can I disturb them while they’re playing games?”

Friend: “…”

Friend: “?”

Yi Ran went crazy outside until 4 a.m., and only after that did he embark on the journey home.

He parked the car, opened the door to the house quietly, and with slow and careful steps, prepared to go back to his room.

If he woke up his Ge by accident while coming back home so late, then he could only watch as his belongings were packed up and he was driven out of the house.

When he entered the living room, he discovered something on the bookshelf of the living room, something which shone silver in the darkness.

He turned on the light and walked over to take a look. He sucked in a breath of cool air——

Wasn’t this some big brand’s fucking limited-edition wristwatch?

This was the exact style that he had begged his dad to get for him for half a month to no avail! Now, it had just been randomly placed on a bookshelf!

That damned rich person didn’t even lay a piece of paper under it!!!

Yi Ran was so distressed that he picked up the watch to find a good place to put it. He glanced up inadvertently and saw a plastic bag at the top of the shelf.

The bag was very small, and had the logo of a supermarket printed on it.

He thought it was an empty bag and took it down. However, as he was picking it up, he realized that there was still some weight in it, and the things inside it fell down and plopped onto the ground.

Yi Ran looked down and immediately, his eyes widened in complete and utter shock——

It was actually the latest X-thing, accompanied with a small box that had an unknown kind of packaging.

He fell into a daze and picked the things up from the ground subconsciously.

…… How could there be such a thing in his Ge’s house?!

He looked around and happened to see the cake box beside the chair. At that moment, he sucked in a long breath, and his mental faculties were filled with such rich imagination that he could write a whole diary on it——

Ah, so it turned out they weren’t playing games tonight.

Hiss… My Ge has finally become a real man.

Tch, no wonder he didn’t even care about properly putting away such an expensive watch.

No, but wasn’t sister-in-law not an adult yet ? He looked pretty young ?

Wait, holy crap, if he wasn’t an adult, then wasn’t his Ge now a criminal???

Yi Ran’s expression became so complicated, and his mind was so full of thoughts that even after he heard some noise coming from beside him, it took him a really long time to turn his head and look in that direction.

He saw his Ge standing at the door of the bedroom with a glass of water in his hand, the buttons of his pajamas unfastened, and his neck still marked with red marks, looking at him expressionlessly… And at what he had in his hands.

Yi Ran held the expensive watch in his left hand and the-couldn’t-be-seen-in-polite-company “daily necessities” in his right hand. His heart turned desolate, and he felt that he was about to be killed and silenced.

Juurensha: RIP Yi Ran, it was nice knowing you hahahaha. But anyway, I added in the raws from the published version of the book (if there’s any mistranslations, I apologize! It’s all in traditional! I’m trying my best with a phone and a scanner and my own limited knowledge!), basically detailing their first time. It’s….not a great first time (Yanyan! Just tell Yi Chen it hurts! He would have prepped you better if he had known! Also felt it was kind of OOC for Yi Chen not to stop when he can tell Yanyan is in pain…) Thankfully, their next time is better (and was the only one I remembered since the original version of this was vague, and I actually wasn’t sure if they went all the way or not originally here)

Noks: Aw man, I truly absolutely adore Yi Ran. His misunderstandings make for such good humour!

Please check out and support the raws if you can!

And you guys can buy the published version here! Shipping was both cheap and fast!

And there’s an audio drama for PUBG that came out! It’s more condensed than the novel, but it’s fun!
