Ch61 - Jealousy incarnate

What happened yesterday was so thrilling that I didn’t end up getting a good night’s sleep. This morning, I then left straight for Sheng Min Ou’s apartment to look for him. This led to evident sleep deprivation, as once I came into contact with his bed, it was like I was glued to it as I ended up sleeping until noon.

I woke up, ordered takeout, then resumed sleeping after finishing my meal. When I sluggishly opened my eyes again, the sky outside the window was completely dark, as it looked to be around seven or eight o’clock. 

I took a while to gather my senses again as I lay supine on the mattress, staring out into the darkness, when suddenly I heard the sound of the electric lock, followed by the noise of a door opening.

I pricked up my ears quietly listening to the commotion outside. First there was the sound of car keys falling onto a marble surface at the entrance, then the sound of running water filling the bathtub, until finally slow footsteps making their way to the bedroom…

 

 

The moment the bedroom door opened, I closed my eyes, pretending I was fast asleep.

The mattress sank slightly as the person in question sat beside me. This wasn’t the first time that I had disobeyed him, but just like in previous instances, the mere thought of his reaction to my antics made me beyond nervous. 

In the end, I stayed in waiting for quite a while, our surroundings falling completely silent as the person by my side remained still.

 

I became impatient. However, just when I was about to sneak a peek, I felt an icy hand touch my cheek.

I wasn’t sure whether it was my body temperature that was higher, or if it was Sheng Min Ou’s body temperature that was lower. His hands at certain times would always give me the feeling of ice. When he pressed it against me without warning, it often jolted me wide awake.

I didn’t know if I had controlled my emotions well or not, but I maintained my act of sleeping as I remained silent.

 

His thumb traced gentle patterns on the skin under my eye as Sheng Min Ou’s voice sounded faintly in the room.

“You always refuse to listen to me.” As he spoke, his hand trailed downwards, until he was gripping my throat. “Did you know that bad children who don’t listen to others never end up with people liking them?“

I only know that children who don’t wail never get candy.

 

I felt as if the hand gripping onto my throat restricted even further, until I could no longer keep up my facade of being asleep. I opened my eyes as I gripped both my hands around his wrist and offered him a placating smile. “It’s good if no one likes me though. If I was too good at getting others to like me, then Ge, wouldn’t you get angry at me again?” 

In the dim lighting, Sheng Min Ou was only wearing a dress shirt on his upper body, the fabric white as snow. The top two buttons of his shirt were unbuttoned, revealing pale white collar bones beneath. With one of his long legs bent as he laid on his side, his gaze directed downwards at me, I thought he looked like the splitting image of a king who was about to fall asleep before finding a bold thief on his bed.

He leaned down and replied, “Aren’t you pretty good at guessing my thoughts,” as he maintained a distance that was neither close nor far away. “Then why don’t you guess what I’m currently thinking now? Hm?”

My hand was actually circling around his wrist rather loosely as I was not exerting much force. He therefore rather liberally shifted his grip from being around my neck to over my cheeks, as he began to pinch my cheeks without restraint. He then emphasised caution as he jiggled my cheek fat back and forth.

What he currently had in mind? He probably was thinking about… how he could vengefully fuck me to hell and back to teach me a lesson. 

My cheeks were pinched which made it hard for me to voice any thoughts, so instead I opted to prove myself through actions as I grabbed a fistful of his shirt with both hands and tugged him towards me.

Sheng Min Ou lost his balance at once and could only let go of my cheeks as he supported himself with a palm on the mattress.

I pressed a hand to his nape, my other sneaking under his shirt as I greedily ran my hands by his sturdy and tensed back.

I had eyed this part of him hungrily for a long time now and today I finally got to fulfil this wish. It took me too long to get here, much too long.

At first, I could still keep up with him in this dance for two, however towards the end I had to admit defeat as I stayed obediently underneath him, my eyes unfocused, my breathing rough.

 

This kiss had me almost deprived of oxygen as I reacted down there as well, which was beyond my control. It was at this moment that Sheng Min Ou bit my lower lip as he moved back.

Our gaze intertwined, his appearance like usual, with only his breathing being slightly faster than normal. This was a stark and rather sorry comparison to myself, as I had become soft as a puddle in the aftermath. 

“I’m feeling quite tired today, so I’m going to take a bath.” Sheng Min Ou stood up as he unbuttoned his shirt one by one.

My chest, which was still rising and falling rapidly suddenly stilled because of this move of his, and it was only a moment later that I rather clumsily picked up on his cue.

He took off his shirt revealing his toned body, the outcome of his training at the fight club. His well-proportioned and powerful muscles were packed tightly according to his frame, with his abdomen formed like a paddy field . Even the V line abs, which were the hardest to achieve, could be clearly seen extending from his hip upwards, causing my gaze to come to a stop.

He tossed his shirt onto the mattress and then began to take off his belt. 

Even the best strip show was just mediocre in comparison, I thought as I propped myself up. Though my breathing had recovered, I felt my heartbeat accelerate again.

The metal belt was unclasped by Sheng Min Ou and fell to the solid wooden floorboards with a whine as he let go of it. He walked towards the door without even turning back, massaging his neck as he did so, as well as the marks that I had just scratched on his back.

“Get over here if you know how to perform a massage, I’ll use that to make up for your rent.”

Massage aside, at this point even if he wanted a magic trick from me, I would’ve clenched my teeth, gone up and sent it regardless. 

“Is just a massage enough? I can actually use other methods to pay rent.”

He walked to the door and turned his head halfway as he glanced at me through his peripherals. His gaze was not particularly cold, but it still made me inconceivably shiver. The trembling travelled from my heart and went all the way south, until it reached down there. All of a sudden my entire face felt hot as I pressed my legs together in front of him.

“Don’t keep endeavouring to do unnecessary things. You do whatever I tell you to do.” His gaze ran a circle pointedly over my face before he resumed his footsteps in walking away.

That kiss just then probably was also something that was deemed ‘unnecessary’, but if we examined this rationally, if he really didn’t want it he would have fought me off. Plus, towards the end he had responded to what I initiated. 

“Hypocrite.” My mouth curled as I stood up and took a few deep breaths, waiting until my reaction to him had calmed down slightly before I walked towards the bathroom.

Sheng Min Ou’s bathroom was huge, the round bathtub placed next to the window. Once the blinds were open, one could glance down out of the window and look at the lights illuminating the streets beneath. The bathtub also matched the grand size of the bathroom, as three people could lie vertically in the tub and fit without a problem.

When I entered, Sheng Min Ou was already lying in the tub. His back facing me as he had extended both his arms to the sides of the bathtub. His head was tilted back against the edge of the tub, his black hair completely soaked and combed back to reveal a clean forehead.

“Sir, which place would you like me to massage today?” I walked closer, half kneeling on the mat in front of the bathtub as I began my service. 

Sheng Min Ou closed his eyes as he voiced one word, “Head.”

“Alright, no problem.”

 

I rolled up my sleeves, placing my fingertips gently on his temples.

After I had massaged that place for a while, I saw his breathing was becoming more even and drawn out and thought that he had fallen asleep. I leaned in and whispered hotly next to his ear, “Sir, does this feel good?” 

Whilst I spoke, I purposefully flicked my tongue to his outer ear. It was only a second of contact, so it wouldn’t be anything that could be classified as ‘an unnecessary deed’.

He tilted his head to the other side as he slowly opened his eyes, his voice husky as he spoke, “Continue.”

In accordance with his commands, I continued to massage his temple, as I gradually exerted increased strength at my fingertips.

The bathroom was shrouded in dense mist, the atmosphere equivocal. One person was even fully unclothed. There would actually be no possible explanation if nothing ended up happening in this situation. 

“Ge, my technique is good right.”

“Do you have somewhere else that you would like me to massage, I can do that for you too?”

Sheng Min Ou refused to talk further as I snuck a sneaky glance under water, my words flowing freely out of my mouth as I began to ramble, “San Ge has had a back injury before, so I used to often massage his back. He said that I had good strength in my hands, and it felt good. But then Shen Xiao Shi joined us and this responsibility was given to him instead. Though he’s the shortest out of all of us, he’s even stronger than me, and he’d often exert so much force that Wei Shi would often be sucking air in during his massages.”

“San Ge?” Sheng Min Ou suddenly asked. 

“That’s Wei Shi.”

Sheng Min Ou seemed to dig through his memory for a second, “Oh, the one who ended up in the police station because he assaulted someone last time.”

“It wasn’t on purpose, that was a misunderstanding, just a misunderstanding. He’s actually a pretty good guy. When we were all in prison, Shen Xiao Shi, him, myself and the other person you met before – Yi Da Zhuang, we were all in the same cell, and we had the closest bonds with each other. After I left prison, Wei Shi helped me a lot. He had me manage the pawn shop and had Shen Xiao Shi support me in running the shop. If something happened to any of us, he would also immediately extend help without asking any questions…”

“So you’re very grateful towards him.” His voice was slow and very quiet at the same time. 

“Well…” I stopped in my tracks immediately, as the alarm bells sounded furiously within.

Wait a minute, given this atmosphere and situation, I probably should not be mentioning another man now, right?

“Um… it’s not as if I’m super super grateful towards him, I just think he’s a good person.”

I noticed something was off in his tone so I was hurriedly trying to fix my mistake, but it appeared as if it was too little too late. 

“You help Wei Shi by massaging his back, you’re there to wipe Shen Xiao Shi’s tears, and you’d even lure Luo Zheng Yun out for Mo Qiu using yourself as bait. If the prerequisite to calling someone a friend was to go to the lengths you’ve gone, then there might not be anyone who could claim they have friends.” A wet hand suddenly shot out to grab my elbow, as I unwittingly trembled, as if I had been bit by a python. “I’m really tired today, so I’m also in a bad mood. I told you to not do unnecessary things, but you never learn to listen.”

Sheng Min Ou looked back at me, his pupils completely dark, “Yes, I can get angry. You don’t know how angry I can get.”

 

These two sentences seemed to be fractured, as they appeared not to have any overt connection.

I still hadn’t realised what he was referring to by him getting “angry” when he suddenly tugged me and pulled me into the tub. I fell in head first and swallowed several mouthfuls of bathwater when I hurriedly surfaced before being tugged by my shirt to the edge of the bathtub by Sheng Min Ou. 

As I coughed, I suddenly remembered that I had used a lie detector on him yesterday and asked him that in the case that I had physical contact with others, the type that was very intimate, whether he would get angry or not. At that time he only replied with a ‘yes’, but now it was like he was telling me explicitly that he really would be incensed over it.

“Ge…”

“Shut up.” Sheng Min Ou grabbed my chin as he lifted it slightly, “Don’t call out to me.”

He wasn’t making sense at all, but I also felt like he shouldn’t be not making sense to such a degree. 

“Ge,” I called out again, without fearing for my death or any consequences.

For a split second his features looked ruthless before he let go of my chin and leaned towards me. There was a brief second where he looked like he was having an internal struggle before he then appeared to have let something go, as he wrapped a hand behind my nape and locked me in with a kiss.

I thought about my conversation with him last night and reviewed possible words which may have triggered him, and found that “San Ge” was a start.

Before, I didn’t dare to think too much, so many things were left unexplained to me. However, now I could think to the limits of my imagination. Though Sheng Min Ou’s various emotions were largely static, his sense of jealousy thrived without restraint. 

In the past, Luo Zheng Yun had fed me an aphrodisiac and Sheng Min Ou had coincidentally bumped into me at the same private club. He tied me up and covered my eyes, and after the incident he had a bunch of excuses in his arsenal, saying that I had forced myself on him, or that he was in a poor mental state and needed a form of release. Now that I thought about it, it wasn’t that, it wasn’t any of those reasons. It was because he had seen the video on my phone and was so enraged he could’ve exploded, which was why he couldn’t hold himself back anymore and fucked me that night.

His grip on me loosened slightly and I seized this opportunity to ask him, “…Is it because, I called someone else ge ge?”

“I said, shut up.” He frowned, leaning over to seal my lips once more, so that I couldn’t make another sound.

Someone who was like jealousy incarnate could be maddened beyond control over something like their title not being unique to themselves anymore. 

Once upon a time I had thought Sheng Min Ou was some sort of immortal who had descended into the mortal realm and didn’t partake or share any feelings a human would have. However, in the end it appears that he is but a mortal himself.

And he was the type of mortal who would become enraged over the fact that he was no longer my only “ge ge” anymore.

This was truly, too good.

I opened my arms wide as I wrapped my arms around his back, as if I had just brought in a net I had cast out to catch birds, as I had him completely besieged. 

I’ve caught you now, my gull.
