Chapter 248 - Xiaoyu Telling Lies
Ji Yao shied away from staring at Rui Fei who was leering at him but in his heart, he liked being looked at like that. It made him so happy that it was difficult to suppress his smile.
While he was washing Rui Fei's hand he heard him mumble something with his head slightly tilted to the side. Ji Yao's brow creased when he thought he heard this cub was mumbling Xiaoyu's name in his sleep.
Now if anyone is in a relationship they know very well that the last thing anyone wants to hear is someone's name on their lover's lips while they are sleeping, drunk or having sex. That is the golden of all golden rules which everyone even an inexperienced cub should know.
It was so absurd to hear her name on Rui Fei's lips especially when those two were like water and oil with no possibility of getting along without an external influence. The absurdity of that possibility was so high that he thought he was hearing things.
Ignoring it he gently pulled Rui Fei forward and slipped behind him before settling him down again. Rui Fei was now sitting between Ji Yao's legs with his head lying on Ji Yao's chest. In this position, he carefully washed Rui Fei's body while preventing his mind from falling into the gutter.
But just as he was washing Rui Fei's tummy he heard it again. He could swear he heard Xiaoyu's name in that incoherent speech. "Fei-er, speak up... I can't hear you," he said into Rui Fei's ear trying so hard not to bite the cub's ear right now and wake him up.
Rui Fei snuggled into Ji Yao's chest as though looking for a comfortable position as he repeated his muttered words. "Xiaoyu.... tray, tray..... sto, stone," were the words he said. Good thing he was talking to someone who was fairly sober and great at charades.
"Mn,.... now rest," he said as he continued washing Rui Fei's body. As though pleased that Ji Yao understood him he relaxed completely and actually fell asleep. Ji Yao on the other hand had somewhat pieced a part of the puzzle together. Xiaoyu had somehow betrayed them and tried to take the keystones but whether what Rui Fei saw was an illusion conjured by the Yinying creature or reality that was yet to be determined.
But when he recalled his things that hand been moved carefully his suspicions grew. The likelihood of it being the truth was significantly high. Since he couldn't speak to Rui Fei now and confirm the facts he finished bathing him before drying his body, dressing him and laying him in bed which was the most difficult task he had done in his entire life.
He had felt the giant cock under him while shamelessly riding on top of Rui Fei earlier. There were layers of fabric between them but that wasn't enough to tame that beast. But seeing it with his own two eyes was a different kind of experience. When Rui Fei stood up in the tub he only saw it from a distance so he wasn't as intimidated.
But while bathing, drying and dressing him, Ji Yao had a close encounter and it was a mind boggling experience. He didn't want to be a pervert but he couldn't help taking a couple more glances than necessary.
Especially when he was putting on Rui Fei's pants and accidentally brushed against it. His hand burned where he had touched it but that wasn't the major highlight. The highlight of the show was when it stood up like it had been activated by that mere touch.
"Fuck," he mumbled at that time staring at that full length cock standing upright like the youth had taken viagra. Ji Yao seriously began to question Rui Fei's sex drive.
If an accidental touch caused that much damage then what would happen to him if Rui Fei was awake? He might have been manipulated by Rui Fei to take responsibility and after what happened earlier he wasn't even certain he had the willpower to refuse. His self restraint had started showing cracks after such a pleasurable hump session.
Realising his mind was drifting off into the gutter he decided to take a bath and wash away these lustful thoughts. After a long hot bath that didn't help him cleanse his lascivious mind but only prompted him to use the self help service, he wore a silk robe and joined Rui Fei in bed.
The youth was sleeping soundly seeming at peace. If it were up to him Ji Yao would even make Rui Fei sleep for the entire day tomorrow. After what they had been through who could blame them if they slept in?
Besides, this was his ship so he could do whatever he wants or so he thought. While he cuddled Rui Fei after pulling down the silk curtains of the canopy bed, he heard the sound of people arguing outside his door.
If it was any other time he would have gotten up to deal with their problems. That is to say, this was absolutely not the right time especially when sleep was also catching up with him.
The effects of the sedatives and extra curriculum activities that happened on that louhan bed earlier were slowly creeping in. He just wanted to hug Rui Fei to sleep and not be disturbed.
The arguing seemed to quieten down as though the person causing a raucous had been appeased. Unfortunately, that wasn't the end of it. A soft knock was heard which Ji Yao ignored rightfully so.
The person knocking was Lady Ching Sei and she was only knocking because she was worried. Just a few minutes ago Xiaoyu had woken up and when she heard Ji Yao was alone with Rui Fei in his cabin, she panicked.
Making up the most absurd story that almost everyone believed, she convinced Lady Ching Sei that Ji Yao was in danger. Who wouldn't believe her when she had that panicked look on her face breaking away from the people holding her back and directly attempting to break into that cabin.
If she wasn't in the presence of powerful people she might have gotten her way. It was Lady Ching Sei who stopped her and talked some sense into her. After arguing for about two minutes she managed to calm her by saying she would check on Ji Yao hence the soft knock.
Everyone on Red Bane, the Concord and even Ji Wen knew that unless if the sky is falling or a meteorite was heading straight for earth it was ill-advised to visit Ji Yao especially when he is sleeping.
To be exact, that would be courting death but Xiaoyu had mentioned the Yinying creature splitting in two and shapeshifting into Rui Fei. She vowed that she had personally witnessed it with her own eyes which is why Rui Fei wanted to kill her.
She also went as far as saying the real Rui Fei was dead and that there was an imposter. While she was spouting nonsense the Rui siblings watched from the topgallant of the mast of the ship. Passing a pack of melon seeds to Rui Yewan, Rui Li asked, "Do you think Yao-ge would believe her?"
Rui Yewan shrugged his shoulders and replied, "Just be prepared for a rescue mission. We need a good exit strategy as well," before tossing a handful of melon seeds into his mouth.
"En."
