Filled with confusion, Shu Yao lowered his head. Immediately, his peerless beauty was reflected in the clear water.
However, on top of his fair and handsome face, his forehead and cheeks were smudged with sparse dust.
"What on earth happened to me!" Shu Yao cared a great deal about his appearance. His voice was soft as he said this, and one might mistake it for a coquettish complaint at first listen.
Shu Yue's heart skipped a beat. He reached out his hand and gently caressed Shu Yao's cheek with tenderness: "It's okay. I'll help Father wipe it off."
Shu Yao trusted him and just looked at him with a gentle gaze, carelessly overlooking the cunning glint that flashed in those dark, night - like eyes.
Shu Yue merely hooked his lips into a gentle smile, but as his hand touched every part of the cheek, he struggled to hold back a dangerous smile.
"All done." He looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction and then asked Shu Yao to look at his reflection in the water again.
The next moment, a dark cloud seemed to cover Shu Yao's brows. His cold eyes shot straight at Shu Yue like arrows, and he gritted his teeth and hissed out two words: "Shu, Yue!"
This reckless man not only failed to wipe off the dust on his face but also turned him into a little kitten with those smudges!
This was intolerable!
As a result, a chase scene ensued in the room with one running after the other.
Of course, jokes were just jokes. In the end, Shu Yue personally cooked a sumptuous meal.
One could say that Shu Yue's cooking skills were comparable to those of the imperial chefs in the palace. Shu Yao ate with gusto. The fish was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, fresh and delicious.
Watching Shu Yao with his chubby cheeks full of food, looking as cute as a little bun, completely subverting his usual aloof and reserved image.
Shu Yue shook his head helplessly. He bent his finger slightly and gently wiped off the food from the corner of Shu Yao's mouth. His eyes and voice were full of doting: "Eat slowly. No one's going to fight you for it."
This simple touch struck Shu Yao's heart. His cheeks blushed like the evening glow in the sky. He tried to act calm: "You, you should eat too."
Just for a moment, he lowered his eyes. His face was as delicate as the spring dawn flower, and his eyes were full of charm, exuding a gentle and charming air.
From Shu Yue's perspective, he could faintly see the fair skin under the white veil, as smooth as jade, which was extremely alluring.
Especially the fair and shiny neck, emitting a faint cold fragrance. He couldn't wait to take a bite.
Shu Yue swallowed hard. He felt a burning sensation in his lower abdomen. He clenched his fist and coughed softly near his mouth: "Cough, I'm not hungry. Father should eat more."
He then made an excuse to leave his seat: "I, there's still soup on the stove. I'll go check on it."
With a fluttering look in his eyes, he hurriedly walked towards the kitchen, leaving Shu Yao alone and bewildered.
Shu Yue slammed the door shut. He leaned against the wooden door and gasped for breath, trying to suppress his accelerating heartbeat and the restless flames inside him.
Damn it! Why did he always feel like there was a fire in his body that couldn't break free every time he saw Shu Yao? It spread all over his body, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
He had suppressed this feeling for too long and hidden it too deep.
However, Shu Yao was his father and also a demon. Although he didn't care, Shu Yao might not think the same way.
After convincing himself several times in his heart, Shu Yue finally managed to calm down the fire.
During the noon break, Shu Yao had to take a nap every day. It had become a habit for him.
Before he even got on the bed, a nimble figure had already jumped onto it. Then, a tall and lanky person lay on his side. His long legs almost stretched to the end of the bed.
"Shu Yue, don't tell me you still want to sleep with me." Shu Yao immediately guessed this person's scheme, so his attitude was rather cold.
"Since Father already knows, don't drive me away," Shu Yue propped his head up with one hand. His aggrieved look was clearly inconsistent with his rugged appearance: "Father, please allow me."
"No!"
Shu Yue seemed to have anticipated his reaction, so he resorted to his trump card: "If Father agrees to let me sleep with you, I'll take care of all the meals from now on. I guarantee I'll fatten Father up."
"I'm not interested." Although the food was indeed delicious, he couldn't completely compromise just for his own sake.
"Alas, well then," Shu Yue sighed with a hint of regret. He rolled over on the couch, got up, and shrugged his shoulders: "Anyway, Father doesn't need me. If Father gets hungry later, it's none of my business."
Just as he took a step forward, a calm voice called out from behind: "Stop."
Behind Shu Yao's back, where he couldn't see, Shu Yue hooked his lips slightly. A look of pride and slyness occupied his handsome and somewhat evil face.
Hehe, he had indeed hit Shu Yao's fatal weakness.
He suppressed his mischievous smile, turned around nonchalantly, and said, "What does Father want from me?"
Admitting defeat, Shu Yao cast an unwilling and cold glance. His pride was still palpable: "I can temporarily agree to your request, but you must also keep your promise."
"I'm not quite sure what Father has agreed to?" Shu Yue pretended not to know and suddenly leaned close to his ear. His warm breath hit Shu Yao's fair and moist earlobe.
Shu Yao's ear tickled. That low and hoarse voice was both charming and slightly husky, like the devil's voice from hell, declaring his no - choice situation.
Although he was Shu Yue's father, he always felt that no matter where and when, Shu Yue would bring an irresistible sense of oppression.
This sense of oppression was not shown on the surface but came from the other person's overly possessive and dominant nature.
"Stop pretending not to know." Shu Yao kept a distance from him, then pretended to be calm and got on the couch, leaving only a proud and elegant back for him.
Shu Yue hooked his lips and quickly took off his outer robe. His strong body immediately covered Shu Yao's slender one.
The warm body temperature and breath touched each other again. As Shu Yue exhaled near his ear, Shu Yao's cheeks immediately turned crimson, showing the nervousness and uneasiness that Shu Yue couldn't see from behind.
"Don't be so tense. Relax. I won't eat you." This casual remark carried a hint of ambiguity.
Shu Yue unceremoniously stretched out his strong arms to hug this body. The fiery breath instantly surrounded the cold - bodied Shu Yao. He pressed his cheek tightly against Shu Yao's long hair, covering his slender body without any gaps.
"Don't hold me so tightly." Shu Yao felt as if his whole body was imprisoned by an iron fence. He could only helplessly toss and turn in this strong embrace.
"If Father moves again, don't blame Shu Yue." This understated threat carried a hint of dangerous evilness, which made Shu Yao stop struggling.
Although he was angry, he just regarded Shu Yue as a child who hadn't grown up and was overly dependent on him.
However, such close physical contact made him feel a strange and indescribable feeling.
Shu Yue's embrace was like a thread, faintly tugging at his heart. He couldn't put it into words, but he just felt something strange.
But Shu Yue didn't have time to indulge in this tenderness. A surge of hot air rose in his body like a burning fire in his lungs. His blood rushed quickly, and then he suddenly sprang away from Shu Yao like a spring...
