Chapter 2310 Love and Chaos System War 33
Jinchen held the clingy kid in his arms horizontally and let You Le'an sit sideways on his lap, as if he was hugging a large pillow.
He gently stroked You Le'an's back from time to time, conveying a relaxing sense of security through the soft fabric of her pajamas.
A low voice sounded in the silence, with a hint of laziness.
"In a few days, your family will be returning home, and by then..."
Before he could finish his words, he felt the person in his arms stiffen for a moment.
You Le'an buried his head deeper into Jinchen's neck and hummed vaguely as a response, but with obvious absent-mindedness.
He has unspeakable complex emotions towards his family.
You Le'an knew clearly that he was not the original You Le'an.
Mommy and Daddy don’t like him, a soul from another world.
He couldn't help but raise his head, rubbed it against Jinchen's neck, and then raised his face again.
"Brother Chen..." His voice was very soft, with a hoarseness from just being kissed, and he murmured like a dream, "Do you like me?"
Jinchen looked down at him.
"like."
You Le'an still stubbornly asked with a little cautious tentativeness: "...Is it me?"
Jinchen's fingertips gently brushed the area on his forehead where iodine was applied, and he answered without any hesitation.
"It's you."
You Le'an buried his face back in the warm and reliable embrace, his eyelashes slowly drooped, and his breathing gradually became long and steady.
Jinchen felt the gradually relaxing breathing of the person in his arms and tightened his arms around him, resting his chin on the soft top of his head.
-
In the early morning, You Le'an suddenly opened his eyes and cold sweat soaked his back.
He was breathing rapidly, his chest heaving violently, and his fingers unconsciously clenched the sheets.
The remaining images in the dream linger in my mind.
He dreamed that he was the evil villain You Le'an in the original novel. He had no system, no transmigration into a book, and was full of inexplicable malice. He did many unforgivable things to Lin Xi.
What made him even more suffocated was that the affectionate male supporting role who took revenge on him in his dream had a face exactly like Jinchen, and he looked at him with cold eyes, as if he was looking at disgusting garbage.
The warm liquid slid uncontrollably from the corner of his eyes, hitting the pillow, leaving a small dark mark.
"Le'an?"
Jinchen's low voice came from beside me, slightly hoarse from just waking up and with obvious worry.
The warm palm gently stroked his cheek, wiping away the lingering tear marks.
Only then did You Le'an realize that he was woken up by Jinchen.
He looked at Jinchen and subconsciously snuggled into his arms, resting his forehead on his shoulder, his breathing still not calming down.
"Are you having a nightmare?" Jinchen's voice was soft, and his palm slowly stroked his back with soothing force.
You Le'an shook his head, then nodded, but refused to speak.
He was afraid that his voice would reveal too much emotion.
Those dreams were too real. Even after waking up, the stinging feeling of being hated and abandoned was still with me.
He raised his face, searched for Jinchen's lips in the darkness, and kissed him with almost eager desire.
This kiss was harder and more uneasy than usual, as if he wanted to confirm something through the most intimate contact.
Jinchen did not refuse, but always maintained a gentle rhythm, supporting the back of You Le'an's neck and gently stroking the back of his ear with his thumb.
You Le'an still stubbornly refused to talk about his dreams. He seemed to be bold and unrestrained on weekdays, but in fact he was extremely sensitive.
Jinchen didn't ask any further questions and gently combed his sweaty hair.
You Le'an's body was not so stiff anymore. Listening to Jinchen's steady heartbeat and feeling the warmth of being embraced by him, those horrible fragments of the dream finally faded away.
He wiped away the remaining moisture from the corners of his eyes, gently bit Jinchen's collarbone, and simply held that small piece of flesh in his mouth before he could relax and fall asleep.
-
A few days later, the Jin family villa welcomed a special guest.
A black stretched sedan slowly drove into the courtyard, the door opened, and an elegant lady walked out.
"Honey!" Lin Ying had been waiting at the door. When she saw her friend, she immediately went up to her and the two hugged each other tightly.
Victoria patted Lin Ying's back and smiled brightly: "After all these years, you are still so beautiful."
Letting go of Lin Ying, Victoria immediately turned her gaze to You Le'an who was standing beside her.
Her eyes lit up and she opened her arms: "Baby!"
You Le'an had a bright smile on his face. He took a few steps forward and hugged his mother.
The familiar scent of Victoria's perfume penetrated his nostrils. It was the scent of his mother in his memory, causing strange ripples in his heart.
You Le'an felt an inexplicable pain in his heart and quickly let go of his hand. He almost subconsciously stepped back and stood close to Jinchen.
This subtle movement did not attract the attention of others.
Victoria was busy chatting with Lin Ying, and only Jinchen was keenly aware of the tension of the people around him.
He reached out his hand calmly, gently pinched You Le'an's fingers, and rubbed them soothingly in his palm twice.
"Speaking of which, Ann has changed a lot,"
Victoria turned to Lin Ying, her tone relieved and a little emotional, "You were so willful before, I was worried."
You Le'an lowered his eyes. He didn't like this kind of talk, and he didn't like the former self that Victoria mentioned even more.
That's not him.
What made him even more uneasy was that he was afraid that Jinchen would detect something unusual from these few words.
"Mommy!" He suddenly spoke, his voice slightly higher than usual, interrupting the conversation between the two mothers, "Brother Chen said he would take me to see the new horses at the stables, so we're leaving first."
Without waiting for a response, he pulled Jinchen up and almost dragged him out.
Jinchen stood up cooperatively and nodded politely to the two elders: "Excuse me."
Victoria and Lin Ying smiled at the same time, "It's okay, go and have your fun!"
