Jian was carried away, while Qiao Zhiya was brought back to Chu Rong’s office. 

Although the Xiang family’s training ground and Chu Rong’s office area both belong to the military headquarters, they were quite far apart. When Chu Rong rushed over, he drove a mecha, and when he returned, he chose a hover car because he was holding Qiao Zhiya.

“Change the wet clothes first,” Chu Rong touched the back of Qiao Zhiya’s head, very dissatisfied with the sweat-soaked hair.

Nestled in the familiar embrace, Qiao Zhiya slowly calmed down. Hearing this, he nodded obediently, but did not move. His mind was still scrambled by what just happened. 

Chu Rong looked down at him, frowned, and touched his head again. Knowing the state of Qiao Zhiya’s mind, he simply took out the black dagger Qiao Zhiya gave him from his space button.

After carefully tearing off his training clothes, Qiao Zhiya’s fair and delicate skin was exposed in large swaths. Chu Rong paused for a moment, then immediately turned his head away. Without seeing, he groped around to tear off Qiao Zhiya’s clothes, then took out a big blanket to envelop him. Finally, he quickly tore off Qiao Zhiya’s pants – it was stuck to his skin due to sweat – at a lightning-fast speed. 

After stripping him down until the youth was only clad in a pair of shorts, he took out a towel and wiped Qiao Zhiya’s sweaty hair until his hair stood up in a comical way. Finally, he felt a little more relaxed and kissed his cheek. With a low voice, he teased, “Will your soul return now?” 

After being tossed like this, Qiao Zhiya finally regained his senses slowly. After blankly staring ahead for a few seconds, he finally realized the state he was in, and hurriedly shrank his limbs and grabbed the blanket to hide. His hedgehog-like hair sprouted out foolishly from the tight-wrap, shaking in embarrassment. 

“Don’t be so reckless next time,” Chu Rong hugged him from outside the blanket. Remembering the sudden panic when he received the news, he just wished he could keep the youth locked inside his room. 

“I’m sorry…” Qiao Zhiya said dully, his whole body was sluggish. “Jian must know that my power is odd. Although he lost consciousness, after the magic power enters the body, there will be a part left, and it will take a while until it completely dissipates. He must have noticed, and I fed him so many potions…I’m sorry, I caused trouble…”

During that time, he was far too anxious to care about anything else. Now that he had calmed down, he realized that everything could lead to problems. It would be a catastrophe for Jian, a boy from the Empire, to discover his special power. 

“Chu Rong, will I implicate you?”

He took a peek, helplessly looking at Chu Rong with worry and self-blame, imagining all the situations that would cause Chu Rong to be spied on by the Empire. The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became.

Despite this, he still stretched out his hand from under the blanket and grabbed his clothes. The blanket was only loosely wrapped, but when he let go, the blanket slid down, exposing his almost-naked body. 

Chu Rong choked back all the comforting words he was about to utter, and quickly stretched out his arms to wrap the youth so he wouldn’t be able to see such a… lewd view. Then, he bent down to pick up the blanket and rewrapped him. He said with a frown, “Don’t think about it, it’s not that serious. Sit down and don’t move around.”

Qiao Zhiya lay passively on his chest, their bodies pressed together, with only a thin layer of summer military uniform in between. He clearly noticed Chu Rong’s sudden rapid heartbeat and slightly elevated body temperature, and he understood the cause. As a result, his ears and face flushed bright red.

He propped up his body slightly, lowered his head, and looked towards a certain bulge located under his buttocks.

‘Isn’t that…’ 

“Don’t you dare to lower your head and see it.” 

A chilly voice sounded above his head, and then his ears were pinched threateningly.

He couldn’t lower his head, and his obscene intentions were discovered. Qiao Zhiya’s body stiffened, his ears trembled, but he still slung his arms around Chu Rong’s neck, feeling a little shy and inexplicably happy.

Chu Rong felt that the air-conditioning in the hover car was not cool enough. He quickly stretched out his arms to hold him down, hugged him tightly with a blanket and put him aside, keeping at least an arm’s distance from him. “Don’t rub your body on me. Put on clean clothes first.” 

“You like me.” Qiao Zhiya teased. He sat restlessly, his exposed toes moved around. His gaze drifted dishonestly towards the taller man’s crotch area. Then, he added a shy but extremely shameless whisper, “You are like this because you like me… um…”

‘It turns out that Mom was right. People’s bodies are honest, and I can easily tell when someone loves me. So that’s what Mom means…’ 1T/L: pretty sure that’s not what your Mom means, Qiao Zhiya

Chu Rong felt that he was being molested, and probed deeper at Qiao Zhiya’s honest gaze. ‘He’s obviously a naive young man, but occasionally he will be like this….’ 

“Are you okay?” Qiao Zhiya asked shyly, both happy yet embarrassed. 

The veins on Chu Rong’s forehead popped up, and he ordered fiercely, “Close your eyes!”

Qiao Zhiya shook his head, ears twitching happily in mischief. Fearlessly and innocently, he instead said, “But I want to change clothes. I can’t change with closed eyes!” 

‘Does he become more courageous after being frightened? Or has he lost his mind?’

Chu Rong looked at his naughty face, blushing cheeks and fluttering ears. He reached out to press his shoulders, moved him to the side. With a bowed head, he directly kissed the youth’s lips.

It was no longer a fluttering, shy touch. He directly pried open the youth’s lips and teeth, meeting the youth’s frozen tongue. Arrogantly, he licked it, sucked on it, hooking it into a dance. 

Qiao Zhiya’s eyes widened in shock. All he could know is that his breath and thoughts were taken away, leaving him to receive Chu Rong’s domineering and powerful movements. He was passive, being led away by the taller man. 

Chu Rong ended the deep kiss with a quick peck. Then, he stepped back as he put his hand on his shoulders once again. He touched Qiao Zhiya’s flushed cheeks and red lips as his eyes narrowed. He quietly asked, “Do you want to get dressed now, or do you want to continue?”

It’s as if something exploded in his head. Qiao Zhiya looked straight at Chu Rong, who was towering over him. With fluttering eyelashes, he shyly lifted the blanket to cover himself. Then he turned back, took out his spare clothes and changed into it at a record speed. 

He was too embarrassed that he wanted to roll himself into a burrito. 

‘Ah, a real kiss is like this… so, so embarrassing.’ 

Chu Rong looked at him hiding in the blanket and changing his clothes stupidly with a smile. He leaned over and kissed the top of his head through the blanket.

Fan Xiangnan received the news early and waited at the door. When he saw the black hover car approaching, he hurried forward a few steps. After the vehicle landed safely, he walked over and asked anxiously, “Sir, how is the situation? I—” 

The car door opened, and the torn clothes and blankets rolled up on the ground were exposed first. Then Qiao Zhiya with rosy lips and flushed face appeared next to Chu Rong with messy clothes and hair.

Everyone here is an adult. It is difficult for Fan Xiangnan to control himself without his mind going straight into the gutter. 

“Good afternoon, Fan-ge,” Qiao Zhiya got out of the car and greeted Fan Xiangnan, trying to maintain a normal expression, but shyness still showed from the corners of his brows and eyes.

“…Good afternoon,” Fan Xiangnan greeted back, and then looked at Chu Rong who had got out of the car. He looked like a beast dressed as a gentleman. He couldn’t help but say, “Sir, Qiao just came of age.” 

Chu Rong frowned. He looked at him inexplicably, stretched out his hand to grab Qiao Zhiya, and said as he walked in, “Get something for him to drink first.” 

Qiao Zhiya whispered in his hand, “Actually, it doesn’t matter, I just drank a potion and I am not dehydrated”

“It’s not your decision whether you are dehydrated or not,” Chu Rong shook him, strode into the elevator, and went to his own office on the top floor.

Fan Xiangnan who was left behind: “…” 

Since their relationship was revealed, his boss has become more and more “indifferent” to other’s gaze. Fortunately, he cleared the scene in advance, otherwise his image in front of his subordinates would suffer.

This was Qiao Zhiya’s first visit to Chu Rong’s office area in the military headquarters. He was a little curious, so his eyes kept flitting about. Chu Rong let him go. 

After entering his office, he put him on the sofa, pointed to the direction of the bathroom, and said, “Go take a bath and relax.” 

Qiao Zhiya wanted to refuse, but was stopped by Chu Rong with a look. All he could do was to obediently walk towards the bathroom.

Fan Xiangnan quickly came over with a drink, Chu Rong motioned him to put it down, and asked, “Has the news spread out, and what is everyone’s reaction?”

Although Xiang Kun deliberately blocked the news just now, but Jian has been rescued, he and Qiao Zhiya were delayed on the road for a while. Things inevitably spread, and everyone knew about the incident to some degree. 

“It’s been rumored that Jian fainted suddenly during training and was sent to the doctor in time to get better. Before you came back, the President and Prince An Xei had already left to visit Jian in the medical room of the training ground. The Wei family and the Ning family also said that there was nothing special about it.” Fan Xiangnan put down the glass of juice and continued, “Sir, what’s going on this time?” 

So far, he only vaguely knew that something happened to Jian and it’s related to Qiao Zhiya, but he didn’t know the specifics. 

Chu Rong’s tense expression relaxed a lot. It seems that the Xiang family is planning to make this incident a small one. All he needs to do now is to see Prince An Xei’s reaction after knowing the truth. 

With some calculations in his mind, he briefly explained the cause and effect of this incident to Fan Xiangnan, and then whispered a few follow-up arrangements. When he heard the movement from the bathroom door, he stopped talking and waved his hands to instruct Fan Xiangnan to leave. 

Qiao Zhiya came out with wet hair, and saw that Chu Rong was the only one in the room, and asked in confusion, “I seem to have heard Fan-ge’s voice, where is he?” 

“He is having dinner,” Chu Rong made up a random reason. 

He pulled the youth over and made him sit down, then gave him a glass of juice. After that, he took out a tower and hair dryer. 

Being taken care of so carefully, Qiao Zhiya felt both warm and embarrassed. He lowered his head and took a sip of the sweet fruit juice. He suddenly remembered what he was worried about before, and turned his head while thinking about it. “By the way, Jian…” 

“Don’t move.”

Chu Rong held his head to prevent him from turning around, and replied flatly, “Don’t worry, there’s nothing wrong there. Judging from the situation, he didn’t talk nonsense, and neither did the Xiang family.”

Qiao Zhiya was relieved, but he was still a little uneasy. “What if Jian falls asleep and just hasn’t had time to tell the truth yet? And those medicine bottles, I forgot to take them away just now, if someone picks them up…” 

–After all, there’s also a bottle of high-grade potion in it. It was made purely by refining magic power, which was completely different from traditional pharmaceutical methods. If it was researched, it would be known. 

Once his hair was dry, Chu Rong put away the hair dryer. He then took out eight empty medicine bottles from the space button and put them on the table and patted him on the head. “Don’t be so sloppy in the future. Don’t worry, I will send someone to keep an eye on Jian. I’ll make sure he won’t talk nonsense, and I’ll be in charge.” 

Qiao Zhiya didn’t expect him to be so careful, and remembered to put the bottle away. Finally, his uneasiness eased.  “But…” 

“No but,” Chu Rong rubbed his ears, sat next to him and hugged him, not letting him see the cold light in his eyes. His tone was affirmative as he said, “Jian is a smart person, he knows what to do.” 

–Before he could deal with that boy, absolutely nobody could know what they shouldn’t know.
