Chapter 2449 Another Me 1
Li Chi hadn't said a word since then, and everything he wanted came true.
Those dark and hopeless days in the past, when I curled up in a small room, listening to the shouting outside the door, day after day, flashed through my mind like faded old photos.
He snuggled secretly in his quilt, and the freedom, warmth, and new future he and his brother had imagined were suddenly within reach.
The feeling was so wonderful, so wonderful that it made his heart tremble and even gave rise to absurd doubts.
Could this just be a dream?
When I woke up from the dream, he was still in that cold corner, without sunshine and hope.
There is no brother either.
No brother...
How can I not have a brother?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, his heart felt like it was being tightly gripped, which was more unbearable than any physical injury.
It's too cruel. For Li Chi, it's no less than cutting out his heart and cutting out his bones.
Li Chi suddenly broke free from those dark fantasies, his voice choked, "Brother, you will always be with me, right?"
Jinchen stood in front of the floor-length mirror, raised his hand, and placed an extremely gentle kiss on his fingertips, returning control of his body to Li Chi.
"Yes." This voice rang in my mind.
Li Chi regained control of his body, with warmth and wetness remaining on his fingertips, where his brother had just kissed him.
The throbbing spread from the fingertips throughout the body.
He involuntarily raised his hand, gently pressed the tip of his finger against the corner of his lips, and gently held the tip of his finger in his mouth.
"Xiao Chi." Jinchen called him.
In the mirror, the boy's fair cheeks turned slightly red, and his eyes were moist and misty.
He sat down in front of the mirror again, resting his forehead lightly against the cool surface.
Li Chi closed his eyes, "Brother, I like you."
-
That night, Li Chi sank into the soft new bed and had a long and beautiful dream.
In his dream, he returned to the room in his memory.
Moonlight pours in from the window.
Jinchen appeared beside the bed, lifted the corner of the quilt, and held him tightly in his arms.
Every kiss that landed on the forehead, the corners of the eyes, the tip of the nose, and the lips was so hot that Li Chi couldn't help but tremble slightly.
He had never experienced such an intimate thing. His body was unfamiliar and sensitive, but he followed his instincts, opened himself up with attachment, and asked for whatever he wanted.
Jinchen's lips lingered on the small mole on his earlobe, and his hot breath sprayed on his sensitive ear.
The deep voice was filled with endless love, telling words that Li Chi had never heard before but had longed for thousands of times in his heart.
Li Chi loved hearing these words.
His soul could not find a home, and in this vast world, he could only cling to Jinchen, entwining all his emotions and attachments with her without reservation.
Until the moon outside the window seemed to be wetted by the thick night and the steaming heat, becoming hazy and unclear.
The sky is bright.
Li Chi woke up from his dream with a blush still on his face.
The nineteen-year-old sat up in a daze. The moment he regained consciousness, he felt an abnormality that froze him completely, and his cheeks and ears were incredibly hot.
Li Chi hurriedly crawled out from under the quilt, with only one thought in his mind.
While my brother was still resting in a deep state of consciousness, I quickly got rid of the soiled pants.
Holding his pants, he slipped into the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and the cold water hit the fabric.
Li Chi was busy scrubbing, trying to wash away the shameful marks along with the heat on his face, but suddenly a lazy chuckle sounded in his mind, with the hoarseness of just waking up and the mischievousness of knowing everything.
Li Chi froze, and heat rushed to his head.
He wanted to put his head under the faucet and rinse it as well.
Jinchen smiled slowly and said, "Xiao Chi, next time... you can ask your brother for help."
Li Chi's face was so red that blood seemed to be dripping out. Without saying a word, he scrubbed his pants vigorously, trying to hide his embarrassment with his actions.
After a long time, so long that Jinchen thought Li Chi was so embarrassed that he would crawl into the ground, he heard a very light response.
"...Okay." Li Chi said.
He wanted his brother, and wanted to do all the most intimate things in the world with his brother in any way.
Jinchen was very satisfied with his wife's obedient behavior early in the morning.
-
The days that followed were so peaceful and stable that even Li Chi’s fantasies seemed like a luxury in the past.
He and his brother hired a professional team to clean the villa thoroughly and worked together to restore it to its original appearance.
They would go shopping together, picking out new curtains, carpets, and pillows, adding their own warm colors to this empty and cold house bit by bit.
That day, Jinchen was strolling around a large shopping mall pushing a shopping cart.
As I passed by a cute and exquisitely decorated boutique, my eyes were attracted by the furry brown deer headbands on the shelf.
The two small antlers stand upright, showing a naive look.
Jinchen raised his eyebrows slightly, and his gaze lingered on the hairband for two more seconds.
Li Chi's curious voice rang in his mind, "Brother, do you want to see me wearing this?"
Jinchen's mouth curled up and he admitted frankly, "Yeah, I do."
He paused, then added, "What about Xiao Chi, do you like it?"
Jinchen wanted to confirm Li Chi's own preferences, not just to satisfy him.
Li Chi thought seriously for a few seconds in his mind, and then gave an answer so honest that it made Jinchen's heart soften.
"I only like my brother. If my brother wants to watch it, I like it."
He had already placed all his love on Jinchen.
Jinchen felt his heart soften and swell at these words.
He took a deep breath and thought hard, "Xiao Chi, if you spoil me like this, I will become even worse in the future."
Jinchen couldn't stand it anymore and could only give his wife a heads-up in advance, hinting at the even worse desire for control that might be hidden.
Li Chi said, "But it doesn't matter. As long as he's my brother, it doesn't matter what happens."
Jinchen: "..."
hiss.
Jinchen didn't hesitate any longer and decisively reached out to pick up the deer headband and put it into the shopping cart.
Walking back to the villa with full shopping bags, Jinchen signaled the driver to park the car at the door of the villa, but he caught a glimpse of two figures standing at the door.
He paused and frowned subconsciously.
It’s Zhou Shuo.
And... the woman whose eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Li Chi is Lin Wan.
Jinchen's heart sank.
How come these two people are together here?
He said to Li Chi, "Xiao Chi, come out for a moment, your mother is here."
The switch of consciousness is completed instantly.
Li Chi opened the car door and got out, walking towards the entrance of the villa.
Zhou Shuo saw him with a complicated expression and took the initiative to explain, "I just came back and ran into Aunt Lin at the gate of the community."
"She came straight here after getting off the plane back home. The security guard at the door...didn't recognize her and didn't let her in."
Lin Wan's gaze fell on Li Chi.
Guilt, strangeness, and…exploration.
Li Chi read these emotions from her eyes.
Li Chi looked at the mother in front of him...who left a silhouette in his childhood memories but was absent during his entire difficult growing-up period.
"Mother."
