“I am going to work. You go back to sleep.” Qin Shen patted him on the back and tried to get out of bed, but he dragged him away.

“Don’t go.” Jiang Yu muttered a little, then got into his arms and rubbed against him to keep him from leaving. Early in the morning, Qin Shen, as a man, couldn’t bear this temptation, leaned over, hugged the young man, and rolled into the quilt.

When the bed stopped moving, it was almost noon. Qin Shen glanced at Jiang Yu, who was lying beside him with sweat on his forehead, his face flushed, and his eyelashes closed. Seeing that Jiang Yu couldn’t move a finger, Qin Shen called his assistant and asked him to deal with it today and that the important documents are to be sent there since he will not go to the company today.

After the phone call, Qin Shen carried Jiang Yu to the bathroom and took a shower, changed the bedsheet, and put the young man on the bed. The assistant called and said he had arrived at the door.

Qin Shen went downstairs to open the door. The assistant brought documents, also he bought food for them. Qin Shen brought the food upstairs and woke up Jiang Yu to feed his stomach first before he casually ate a few bites and went to the opposite study to deal with the documents.

This was a busy afternoon. When he finished and looked at the time, it was already more than five o’clock.

Qin Shen got up and went to the opposite room to see if the young man was awake, but the bed was empty. He searched the bathroom and playroom, but they were empty, so he went downstairs, and saw the young man with an apron in the kitchen bussing himself.

“You’re done.” Jiang Yu heard footsteps and looked back at him, from the pot that he had just turned off the fire, grabbed a piece of steamed glutinous rice ribs, blew on it, and sent it to Qin Shen’s mouth, “Taste it, how does it taste?”

Qin Shen put his hand to his mouth and nodded, “It tastes good.”

“Go wash your hands, it’s time to eat.” Jiang Yu pushed him to wash his hands and brought the dishes from the kitchen out by himself.

After eating, the two put the dishes into the kitchen, and Qin Shen consciously stayed to wash the dishes. When Qin Shen finished washing the dishes, the two of them sat on the sofa again, just like last night, eating fruit while watching TV.

Jiang Yu held the glass bowl with strawberries and lay in Qin Shen’s arms, eating one for himself and reaching out to feed one to Qin Shen’s mouth. This is the first time that Qin Shen looked down and saw that the young man’s lips were moistened by the strawberry juice, so he couldn’t help but feel a little thirsty.

Jiang Yu looked at the TV sideways, picked up another strawberry, and reached up, but even after half a day, he didn’t feel Qin Shen’s movement. He looked up to Qin Shen, and Qin Shen looked at him with a sly gaze.

He held up the strawberry and touched it to Qin Shen’s lips, asking foolishly, “Aren’t you going to eat?”

“Eat.” Qin Shen said only one word and then lowered his head and took his lips.

From the sofa to the room upstairs, they tossed and turned until most of the night. The next day Qin Shen was still pestered by the young man and didn’t let him go out to work. For three whole days, with the exception of when Qin Shen went into the study to deal with documents, Jiang Yu was glued to him, and since there were enough vegetables and fruits in the refrigerator, in those three days, the two did not go out at all.

On the morning of the fourth day, Jiang Yu noticed the person beside him getting up, he rubbed his eyes, Qin Shen lowered his head and gave him a kiss on his forehead, saying: “There is a meeting in the company today, I must attend. Do you want to go to the company with me?”

Jiang Yu shook his head. Qin Shen said, “Then you wait for me at home.”

He went to the bathroom to wash up, and when he came out, he didn’t see Jiang Yu in bed.

He was about to go out to look for him when Jiang Yu came in with a cup of hot milk and said with a smile, “It’s too late to make breakfast, so I warmed up a cup of milk for you.”

Qin Shen took it and drank it. After changing his clothes, he said while tying his tie in front of the mirror, “I’ll be back later in the evening. I’ll call you then.”

After he finished speaking, he didn’t hear Jiang Yu’s response, so he turned his head and saw Jiang Yu was looking at him without blinking. His clear eyes filled with reluctance and a bit of sadness. Qin Shen’s heart trembled. He had never seen such a look in a young man’s eyes. He reached out and took the person into his arms, and asked anxiously, “What’s the matter with you?”

“I don’t want you to ……” Jiang Yu wrapped his arms around his waist, pressed to his chest, and murmured adding two words, “Work overtime.”

Qin Shen smiled and rubbed his head, “I’ll just be back a little later today. I’ll definitely be back early tomorrow and take you somewhere.”

Jiang Yu leaned on his chest, his eyelashes drooping lightly, covering his sad eyes.

The two of them hugged quietly for a while. Qin Shen looked at his watch, and he had to go, but when he was about to coax the young man to let go of him, he felt a little dizzy and rubbed his temples with his thumbs.

“Let me help you to sit by the bed for a while.” Jiang Yu sensed his movement, withdrew from his arms, and helped him sit on the edge of the bed.

Qin Shen felt increasingly sleepy, he forced his eyes open and looked at Jiang Yu, only to see his increasingly sad, unsympathetic, and red eyes.

“I’m sorry, goodbye.” At the end of his consciousness, the young man whispered in his ear, and the last kiss on his lips. Then, he closed his eyes and lost consciousness.

Jiang Yu put Qin Shen on the bed and covered him with the quilt. He sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Qin Shen’s handsome sleeping face, reaching out to stroke along the contours, wanting to keep his face in his heart forever.

The phone rang, he picked it up and answered it. It was Lin Cheng calling, asking over the phone, “Yu’er, did you finish? I’ve arrived at the hotel.”

Jiang Yu sniffed and said, “It’s done. I’ll go there now.”

He hung up the phone, got up, changed his clothes, and gave Qin Shen a final kiss on the lips before he turned around and left without looking back.

When he arrived, there were already a lot of cars parked in front of the Royal Court Hotel. With the invitation, Jiang Yu easily entered the hotel.

In the hotel lobby, he saw Lin Cheng standing with a young and tall man, whom he knew as Gu Yang, the big boss of his and Lin Cheng’s company.

Seeing him, Lin Cheng raised his head and said a few words to Gu Yang, then walked towards him, pulled him to a corner where no one was around, and whispered, “Walk inside along the bathroom, and you’ll arrive at the back door of the hotel. I’ll pretend to not feeling well and go upstairs. You wait at the back door when no one is paying attention. There is a staff elevator going down there. After I confuse the bodyguard and send the child down, you immediately come out with the child. I will wait for you at the alley.”

Gu Yang kept looking at them and was about to go towards them when someone came up to talk to him. Lin Cheng hurriedly said, “You go over first.” Then he walked over towards Gu Yang.

Pei Yun held a banquet this time, besides celebrating his son’s birthday, the main reason was to socialize. Therefore, he invited a lot of big names in Linghai City. He was too busy talking and had no time to pay attention to the movement upstairs.

Lin Cheng took the opportunity when Pei Yun was having a lively chat with several people, to pretended to be unwell, and asked the waiter to take him upstairs to rest. Jiang Yu was already in the corner when he noticed that Lin Cheng was going upstairs, he hurriedly walked towards the bathroom in a calm manner.

After passing the restroom and walking inside for a while, he really saw a back door. The waiters were busy in the front hall, so Jiang Yu didn’t meet anyone along the way. He waited anxiously at the back door for a while, then the staff elevator opened not far away, and a muscular strong man lost in thoughts came over with a child in his arms.

Jiang Yu hurriedly went forward to take the child from his arms, stared into his eyes, and spoke softly as if murmuring, “Go back the way you came, and forget everything you saw.”

The strong man obediently lost his soul and walked back, Jiang Yu hurriedly held the child and pushed open the back door.

The back door of the hotel was in an alley, Jiang Yu hastily walked towards the entrance of the alley with the child in his arms, and just when he reached the entrance of the alley, he saw a black car parked at the roadside. Lin Cheng peeked out of the car window towards him and said, “Yu’er, get in.”

Jiang Yu held the child and got in the car. Lin Cheng quickly turned the steering wheel and drove towards the beach.

The Royal Court Hotel was in the city center, and it took more than an hour to get from the city center to the beach. After less than half an hour, Lin Cheng’s cell phone rang like crazy. When he picked it up to see who was calling and saw that it was Gu Yang, he directly turned off the phone.

Jiang Yu was sitting in the co-pilot with the child in his arms. The little guy was sleeping, but he woke up a long time ago. When he saw that he was being held hostage by two strangers, he burst into tears as soon as his mouth opened. Jiang Yu didn’t know how to coax him, so he was at a loss. Lin Cheng got a headache from the noise and said to Jiang Yu, “Let him sleep, and when he sees Brother Qing, let Brother Qing coax him.”

Jiang Yu also had no choice but to stare at the little one’s eyes and use his voice to coax him to sleep.

Worried that Pei Yun would catch up, Lin Cheng drove very fast and occasionally ran one or two red lights. Lin Cheng sent Lu Qing to a small hotel not far from the beach last night. When they arrived at the entrance of the small hotel, Lin Cheng got off to pick up Lu Qing and then continued to drive to the beach.

Lu Qing was excited to see the child in Jiang Yu’s arms, reached out and touched the child’s cheeks, and said in a trembling voice, “He was sleeping all the way?”

Jiang Yu was embarrassed: “He wasn’t sleeping when we got in the car, but he was crying so much that we couldn’t help it, so we let him sleep.”

“Do you want to hug him?” Jiang Yu wanted to hand the child to him.

Lu Qing shook his head, “You hold him first. I have no strength. I’m afraid to fall on him.”

There were only ten minutes to the beach. Jiang Yu hold the child, and Lin Cheng supported Lu Qing. Four people got out of the car.

There were traces of human activity on the beach where they got off of the car, so they had to continue walking for a while to enter the sea.

There were not many people on the beach in winter. Lin Cheng deliberately chose a remote location where few people came. After walking for about ten minutes, he saw a huge reef and stopped.

The sea breeze in winter hurt his face, and the seawater under his feet penetrated his shoes and socks, which was extremely cold. However, after enduring this for a while, there was an extremely warm deep sea below.

Lin Cheng helped Lu Qing to walk towards the sea, and Jiang Yu followed behind holding the child. The cell phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated. Jiang Yu’s footsteps stopped for a beat. He reached out and took out the phone, it was a call from Qin Shen.

Lin Cheng and Lu Qing were mostly submerged in seawater. Lu Cheng turned his head and saw that Jiang Yu was not following them, and called out, “Yu’er?”

Jiang Yu regained his senses, his fingers clenching the phone turned white. He walked towards Lin Cheng and Lu Qing step by step, until the seawater covered his fingers, submerging the phone, and finally the whole person sank into the sea, then he relaxed his fingers and let go of the phone. It dropped into the bottom of the sea, and now the phone had just a black screen.
