Saving the overbearing CEO

Chapter 62: First World: Goodnight My Love

Qie Ranzhe looked as innocent as ever just like an angel. "Jin-ge, l can do better, let me try again," he said taking another blank paper to redo the work. Wen Qinxi carefully observed him making sure he was being serious and it seemed so. Qie Ranzhe really looked like he was pouring out his heart on the paper paying attention to detail. Though better, his calligraphy was still nowhere close to his previous work before the bandit incident.

What Wen Qinxi didn't know was that he was dealing with an expert wolf well versed in dressing up like a sheep and innocently mingle with the flock. In fact, Qie Ranzhe's literacy skills were hand in hand with Lin Jingxie's but he concealed it on purpose for certain benefits which would be clear soon enough.

A frustrated Wen Qinxi made him redo it again but the results slightly worsened. Unwilling to spend the whole night doing this, he moved behind Qie Ranzhe and held his hand guiding him to write down the characters the right way. Wen Qinxi was kneeling with his chest pressed against Qie Ranzhe's shoulder with their faces so close that their cheeks lightly brushed against each other.

Qie Ranzhe suppressed a smile by biting his lips pretending to focus on Wen Qinxi's guidance. He fully indulged in his shamelessness with the warmth from Lin Jingxie infusing with his skin through the fabric. An intoxicating wave of euphoric sensations flowed to all his nerve endings causing his body temperature to rise. His lower half was inevitably stimulated itching to bully Lin Jingxie to his heart's content. Qie Ranzhe thoroughly enjoyed their intimacy as Lin Jingxie lingered for a long time with their hands joined together while motioning in a sophisticated manner leaving behind beautiful characters created by both of them. In his moment of ecstasy, he made a decision to frame this piece of paper as a reminder of the first time Lin Jingxie willingly held hands with him.

While one was having obscene thoughts, Wen Qinxi was fully focused on teaching him. He only lingered because Qie Ranzhe had got most of the characters wrong. Wen Qinxi carefully guided his hand through more than half of them like an excellent tutor. If he knew what his filthy student was thinking he would have hit Qie Ranzhe with a book by now. This cycle went on two more times till Qie Ranzhe showed signs of improvement. They finally stopped but by the time they were done,it was already so late that Qie Ranzhe urged Lin Jingxie to sleep-over. Knowing Master Lin's strict rules, Wen Qinxi naturally agreed as it was better than being punished.

As soon as Wen Qinxi lay his head down his brain slowly shut down drifting off to sleep but a stimulated Qie Ranzhe wasn't sleepy in the slightest and decided to bother Lin Jingxie instead. Qie Ranzhe turned on his side while annoyingly poking Lin Jingxie's back. Wen Qinxi who was poked to the point of exploding turned to face him with heavy-lidded eyes asking, "What now?"

"l need your advice," said Qie Ranzhe dazed by the cute Lin Jingxie with the moonlight reflecting on his porcelain jade-like skin. Under the starry night, Lin Jingxie looked as elegant as a sleeping beauty he desperately wanted to ravage.

"Ask," replied Wen Qinxi rubbing his eyes to keep awake.

"How do l get someone to like me? l am asking for Machu?" he asked throwing Machu under the bus.

Wen Qinxi pursed his lips thinking before giving him an honest answer, "He should just tell the girl straight up thats usually effective."

Qie Ranzhe shook his head while saying, "He already tried but was misunderstood and its not a girl but a guy he likes," clarifying Manchu's non-existant love interest.

Wen Qinxi's eyes widened, if he wasn't awake then he was fully awake now. "Wow Machu actually likes a guy? Who is it tell me?" asked a giddy Wen Qinxi lurching closer to hear the juicy gossip. He was now at arms length inching even closer the longer Qie Ranzhe kept silent.

Seeing that Lin Jingxie had stopped moving, Qie Ranzhe curled his index finger urging him to come closer. Wen Qinxi didn't even think twice and moved his ear closer like a dumb turkey willingly offering itself up for Thanksgiving dinner. Qie Ranzhe propped his body up with his elbow and leaned in close to Lin Jingxie's ear. "Its a secret. He told me not to tell anyone so l can't tell you," he whispered with his lips touching Lin Jingxie's ear for a brief moment. Whether it was in purpose or accidental will let the audience decide.

Wen Qinxi frowned when he realised he had been lured into a trap. His senstive ear was suddenly itchy and hot stimulating his otherwise docile senses. He glared at Qie Ranzhe who was hovering above his face with a sly grin and pushed him away yelling, "Jerk."

Qie Ranzhe was satisfied simply allowing his body to fall back at Lin Jingxie's weak shove. He chortled lightly before saying, "Am serious though. Its eating him up inside. He has run out of ideas," with his hand lazily covering his eyes.

Wen Qinxi was not an expert when it came to relationships but tried to put himself in Machu's shoes before saying, "When it comes to guys liking guys its a bit tricky. Machu is better of trying the roundabout way otherwise he risks being reject and losing the person entirely," adjusting his sleeping posture. Qie Ranzhe lay on his side facing Lin Jingxie listening carefully.

"If it was me, l would deduce if there any possibility for the guy to become bent. For instance his attitude towards same-sex couples or how he reacts to different sexual preferences. If his disgusted or rude then his not worth my time. The next step would be to infiltrate his life till his emotionally dependent on me. By the time the victim realizes what happened, it would be irreversible. It's all about strategy. Though there is no guarantee it would work at least it increases my odds," continued Wen Qinxi with his heavy eyes slowly closing.

Qie Ranzhe pondered over his words for a long time while staring at the peaceful Lin Jingxie. He engraved this enchanting image into his heart before saying, "Then wish me luck," to a sleeping Lin Jingxie. He placed his soft lips on Lin Jingxie's forehead whispering, "Goodnight my love."
