After a Flash Marriage With the Disabled Tyrant - Chap 108
The curtains in the room were drawn tightly.
In the darkness, the mobile phone on the bedside table suddenly emitted a gleam of light, and the alarm started in the next second.
Shi Yunnan, in his sleep, habitually woke up, and as soon as he got up and fumbled around, he was hugged back by Luo Lingsheng beside him.
Luo Lingsheng picked up the phone on the bedside table, turned it off, and glanced at the time—it was only six o’clock.
“Hm……”
Shi Yunnan, who woke up in a dizzy state, grunted and shrank into his arms sleepily, “I have to get up again.”
Luo Lingsheng saw a row of alarms on his phone and asked, “Why did you wake up so early?”
“Review; I have to catch up with a lot of lessons.” “Luo Lingsheng…I’m so sleepy,” Shi Yunnan buried his head in his lover’s chest and rubbed it vigorously.
“It’s Saturday; sleep a little longer.” Luo Lingsheng immediately turned off a row of alarm reminders on his mobile phone and said, close to his ear, “I’ll wake you up at 7:30.”
Getting up early at school is already tiring; if you can’t get a good night’s sleep on weekends, your body will definitely be overwhelmed in the long run.
Shi Yunnan struggled a little but finally gave up. “Well, then, then you have to call me.”

“Okay, I will call you. Sleep peacefully.”
Luo Lingsheng pulled the thin quilt around the two of them and laid down again.
Drowsiness swept over the two of them again.
Suddenly, Luo Lingsheng heard Shi Yunnan whisper in a daze in his arms, “Luo Lingsheng…”
“Hm?”
“You, you wait for me.”
“what?”
Luo Lingsheng opened his eyes in the dimness, and after looking carefully, he realized that Shi Yunnan was talking in his sleep.

Shi Yunnan rested his palm on his arm and continued to mutter, “I will… get into a good university and work hard to stand side by side with you…”
He paused, and in his sleep he still did not forget to act like a baby, saying, “You wait for me.”
Luo Lingsheng’s heart softened for a while when he was seduced by his inexplicably well-behaved lover. He kissed his forehead and said, “Okay, I’ll wait for you; I’ll always wait for you.”
Shi Yunnan didn’t say another word, obviously falling asleep again.
…
The courses at home and abroad are always different, and the knowledge points involved in the exam are also different. Fortunately, Shi Yunnan has perseverance and intelligence, and it took half a semester to catch up with the progress.
Shi Yunnan had determined the colleges and majors that the university wanted to apply for early on, which is the “Design Category,” and would take time to study according to the admission criteria of each college.
The time has passed in the blink of an eye.
The third year of senior high school had a lot of schoolwork, and it was not until the 26th of the new year that Shi Yunnan was willing to take the official holiday. Shi Yunnan took advantage of the rare holiday to make up for two days of sleep, and then he and Luo Lingsheng went to buy some New Year’s goods in high spirits.
“Are you sure you want to post the couplets at the door?”

Luo Lingsheng leaned against the door, looking at Shi Yunnan, who was moving around excitedly.
He just bought this suite to make it easier for him to go to work. In the past, he had to go back to Luo’s house every New Year’s Eve to celebrate, so he couldn’t use these Spring Festival couplets.
“Of course, if you don’t buy these things, you won’t have the real taste of the new year.” Shi Yunnan tried again, but he really couldn’t reach the top position, “Come here and help me.”
Luo Lingsheng chuckled and moved closer, easily moving the top of the couplet upwards, “Is it okay to stick it here? Little shorty.”
Shi Yunnan snorted, “My height is normal. You’re just too tall.”
The two helped each other post the couplets, and the “fortune” character was also posted upside down1 on the front door.
Shi Yunnan admired the fruits of their labor and even took out his phone to take pictures.
Luo Lingsheng looked into his shining eyes and said, “You’re that happy?”
“Very happy.”
As far as he can remember, he hasn’t celebrated a decent new year for a long time. Either he is not welcome at Shi’s house or he spends the new year alone abroad.
Now that he has the opportunity to celebrate with Luo Lingsheng, he naturally feels satisfied.
Just as Shi Yunnan was thinking, the phone in the house rang.
Luo Lingsheng picked it up and saw that it was Mrs. Luo calling, “Hello, Mom.”
“Lingsheng, it’s New Year’s Eve; you shouldn’t be busy with work, right?” Mrs. Luo on the other end of the phone asked, “Your grandfather sent word yesterday that he had set up a banquet for everyone at the estate tonight ……”
When Shi Yunnan approached, he happened to hear these words.

Luo Lingsheng glanced at Shi Yunnan but didn’t answer for a while.
Mrs. Luo, who got no answer, continued, “Hello? Lingsheng, are you listening?”
“Mom, I’m listening.”
“I know you’re busy with work on weekdays, so I don’t want to bother you, but your grandfather has already told me that our family has to go to this family banquet, you know?”
As Elder Luo got older, he became more and more concerned about the word “reunion,” and now when he opened his mouth, the entire Luo clan dared not disobey.
Luo Lingsheng hesitated for two seconds before saying, “Understood, Mom. I will contact you later.”
The phone hangs up.
Shi Yunnan, who was standing aside, asked, “What’s wrong? Did Mrs. Luo call you home for a reunion dinner?”
Luo Lingsheng said truthfully, “It was the old man who held a family banquet and asked all four of us to go back.”
The smile in Shi Yunnan’s eyes faded slightly, “That, isn’t that very good? “The new year should be spent with family members.”
Luo Lingsheng frowned and didn’t answer.
He originally imagined that if tonight was the small family banquet of Luo’s fourth house, he would definitely choose to take Shi Yunnan back with him. Anyway, they would meet sooner or later.
Now the small family banquet has become a big family banquet. Although it was said to be a “reunion,” it’s actually an invisible battlefield.
Seeing that Elder Luo is getting older and it’s time to “delegate power and benefit,” the first house has always regarded the four of them as thorns in their eyes, and it’s unknown what kind of scheme they’re brewing.
The most important thing is that the Luo family is a century-old family; even in the era when same-sex marriage was legal, Elder Luo still abhors such feelings.
Shi Yunnan was still in school, and Luo Lingsheng didn’t want to expose him to everyone in the family too early. He had to try his best to protect his lover so as not to cause him trouble that he shouldn’t have caused.
“I’m not going; I’ll stay here to celebrate the New Year with you.”
“No need; if you don’t go without a reason, Elder Luo will be angry, right?”
Shi Yunnan probably guessed the twists and turns among the big families and rejected Luo Lingsheng’s proposal.
“I actually wanted to tell you that my brother asked me to go back to the Wen family for New Year’s Eve tonight, and I was afraid you wouldn’t be happy, so I didn’t know how to say it.”
Luo Lingsheng was dubious: “Really?”
“Yes.”
Shi Yunnan showed Luo Lingsheng the text message sent by Wen Yibei and continued to persuade.
“Isn’t it true that a wealthy family like the Luo family will inevitably fight openly and secretly? Elder Luo is already at this age. If you don’t go tonight, they will definitely take this chance to attack you.”
Luo Lingsheng stroked his cheek and smiled helplessly, “You still understand this?”
The fourth house has never had the desire to fight for power, but Elder Luo’s favoritism toward them has aroused jealousy and speculation from other relatives, causing them to encounter quite a few stumbling blocks.
That’s why Luo Lingsheng has deliberately set up his own business to avoid getting too involved with the Luo Group.
“Don’t you know? My stepmother is always on guard against me for that small property of the Shi family.” Shi Yunnan shook his head and looked disgusted.
He took two steps closer, put his arms around Luo Lingsheng, and asked, “You can go there, but you have to come back to accompany me tomorrow, okay? My holiday ends on the 12th.”
Luo Lingsheng managed to suppress the hesitation in his heart and say, “Okay, I’ll find time to video call you tonight.”
If he found an excuse not to go, it might cause suspicion from Elder Luo and the others, and when they dug up his relationship with Shi Yunnan by following the clues, it would definitely cause more trouble.
Luo Lingsheng wanted to protect Shi Yunnan from harm, but he knew better than anyone else that with Elder Luo still in power, he alone wasn’t enough to do so completely.
Shi Yunnan responded with a smile and leaned forward to ask for a kiss, saying, “Kiss me once.”
Luo Lingsheng kissed him but didn’t let go, saying, “Once is not enough.”
…
Luo Lingsheng drove to the Luo’s manor at three o’clock in the afternoon.
Looking at the empty suite, Shi Yunnan still let out a breath of disappointment: “…it seems that I still have to spend New Year’s Eve alone.”
In fact, he didn’t tell the truth to Luo Lingsheng. As early as the moment Wen Yibei sent a text message to ask, Shi Yunnan had already called back and rejected the proposal of going back to Wen’s house for the New Year.
Although he didn’t know how the relationship between Wen Yanfeng and Song Zhiqiu had changed, he would rather not go, lest a moment of carelessness cause a new round of family disputes.
“It’s okay, just be alone; it’s not like I haven’t been through it before.”
Shi Yunnan collected his thoughts, went back to his room, and simply used the “rote learning method” to divert his attention.
Time passed minute by minute, and the screen on the table vibrated from the video communication. It was Luo Lingsheng calling.
Shi Yunnan came back to his senses suddenly, only to realize that it was completely dark.
He remembered what he had agreed to with Luo Lingsheng at noon, and he was afraid of blowing his cover, so he switched the video back to voice call, “Hello.”
“Why did you change to voice call?”
“Ah? Oh, I’m afraid Grandpa and Uncle will accidentally see it. It’s safer this way.” Shi Yunnan casually said, closing his exercises and moving his stiff neck.
“Really?” Luo Lingsheng replied in a low voice, “It’s snowing.”
Shi Yunnan looked out of the window and found snowflakes falling in the imperial capital after nightfall, “Yes.”
Luo Lingsheng asked again, “Have you eaten yet? What did you eat at the Wen house?”
“…”
Shi Yunnan got stuck.
He looked at the time—half past nine—displayed on his phone and then touched his empty stomach, feeling even more guilty.
“Why don’t you talk? You didn’t eat anything?”
“How is it possible? They are all common home-cooked dishes.” Shi Yunnan flatly denied and changed the subject to, “What did you eat? Luo’s family dinner should be very luxurious, right?”
While asking, Shi Yunnan quietly walked towards the kitchen.
He opened the refrigerator and saw that it was full of new year’s goods.
He forced Luo Lingsheng to buy these. He obviously didn’t know how to cook and didn’t have much experience in celebrating the Spring Festival, but he couldn’t help buying a lot of ingredients that he didn’t know how to use.
Luo Lingsheng on the other end of the phone said, “Nothing special, not as good as the usual dinner with you.”
“…”
Shi Yunnan’s nose was sour, and the loneliness he hadn’t felt for a long time suddenly surged. He was used to the liveliness and stability of having a company and can no longer get used to the loneliness.
Shi Yunnan couldn’t help shouting, “Luo Lingsheng…”
“Hm?”
Shi Yunnan suppressed the words “I miss you” into his stomach and forced a smile, saying, “Happy New Year; remember to come home tomorrow morning.”
“Okay, happy New Year.”
After the two talked for a few more minutes, Shi Yunan excused himself and hung up the phone.
He rummaged through the refrigerator to find the fresh dumplings that he had just bought and frozen yesterday. Originally, he just wanted to cook them for himself; as a result, he accidentally cooked more when thinking of Luo Lingsheng.
Shi Yunnan only took his share, and planned to save the rest for Luo Lingsheng tomorrow morning. He simply resolved his late ‘New Year’s Eve dinner’ and washed up after half past ten.
Shi Yunnan curled up on the sofa in the living room with the quilt and turned on the TV Spring Festival Gala that he wasn’t very interested in, trying to add a little excitement to the home.
Perhaps it was the arrival of the usual biological clock for sleeping, or perhaps the scent of Luo Lingshhen still remained on the blanket, it made Shi Yunnan feel sleepy all of a sudden.
Sensing his drowsiness, Shi Yunnan lay directly on the sofa, looking at the closed door obliquely, and subconsciously hypnotized himself—Go to sleep. Go to sleep.
When he wakes up, it will be a new year, and he will be able to see Luo Lingsheng.
…
When Luo Lingsheng hurried home, he saw Shi Yunnan, who was sleeping on the sofa with the quilt rolled up. There was a soup pot on the stove in the kitchen, and when he lifted it up, he saw that there were a lot of dumplings left.
“…”
Luo Lingsheng’s eyebrows knitted together, unable to tell whether he was more distressed or self-blaming. He gently approached the sofa and caressed Shi Yunnan’s sleeping face.
Shi Yunnan, who hadn’t slept deeply yet, raised his eyelids. He almost thought it was an illusion when he looked at the figure close at hand, and it took a while for him to say, “Why are you back? Is it the first day of the new year?”
“It’s still dark; you’re the one who got lost in your sleep.” Luo LingSheng moved closer and took him into his arms, asking, “Who told you to lie to me about spending New Year’s Eve at Wen’s house?”
Shi Yunnan didn’t answer; he rested his chin on Luo Lingsheng’s shoulder and couldn’t help but giggle twice, “I’m not dreaming, am I? Why did you come back all of a sudden?”
“Come back to celebrate the New Year with you.”
Luo Lingsheng kissed the side of his lover’s neck; the heat was a little higher than usual, and he immediately became alert, asking, “Do you have a fever? Are you feeling uncomfortable?”
“Not uncomfortable, just a little dizzy.” Shi Yunnan lay in Luo Lingsheng’s arms, “What time is it? Is it still in time for New Year’s Eve?”
“It’s just past eleven o’clock. It’s on time.”
As soon as Luo Lingsheng finished the Luo family banquet, he secretly found a separate room to make a video call with Shi Yunnan, but the silence from the other end of the phone made him feel that something was amiss.
Luo Lingsheng was really worried, so he sneaked away behind everyone’s back and rushed home as fast as he could.
Sure enough, the little liar was caught red-handed.
Luo Lingsheng let go of him temporarily, went to the kitchen to get the spare medicine kit, and took his body temperature.
“Fortunately, the body temperature is just a little bit higher.” Luo Lingsheng’s heart still hasn’t completely let go, “Are you sleepy? Did you just eat some dumplings for dinner? If you’re still hungry, I’ll make you some more? ”
“Don’t bother; I’m not hungry.” Shi Yunnan completely didn’t take this little fever seriously.
Luo Lingsheng changed his request to, “How long has it been since you’ve made yourself sick? I’ll take you back to your room to rest.”
Shi Yunnan gulped down the warm water that Luo Lingsheng brought him. After the dryness in his throat was relieved, he lazily burrowed into his lover’s arms again.
Luo Lingsheng wrapped Shi Yunnan tightly with the quilt and hugged him, saying, “Go back to the room.”
Shi Yunnan was so happy that he almost couldn’t find his word and took the opportunity to kiss Luo Lingsheng’s lips again and again, “Luo Lingsheng.”
“Hm?”
“I miss you so much.”
“It’s only been a few hours, and you miss me?”
“Can’t I?”
“You can.”
Luo Lingsheng took the initiative to kiss Shi Yunnan’s forehead and put him on the bed smoothly, “You rest for a while; I’ll go wash up and take a shower so I can catch up with the New Year countdown later.”
Shi Yunnan nodded and readily agreed.
…
After a while
As soon as Luo Lingsheng went out after washing, he was hit by Shi Yunnan, who rushed in. He subconsciously protected his lover and took a half step back against the cool wall.
“What are you doing?”
Luo Lingsheng caught a glimpse of Shi Yunnan’s bare feet and made Shi Yunnan step on his cotton slippers while saying, “Still think your favor isn’t serious enough?”
“I’m waiting to ambush you for a kiss.” Shi Yunnan was no longer drowsy. After dropping this sentence, he forcefully stole a kiss from Luo Lingsheng.
With one arm around Luo Lingsheng’s neck and the other arm pushing against the wall, he really looked a bit like an arrogant “overlord.”
Luo Lingsheng let Shi Yunnan mess around for a while, then turned around suddenly and pushed him against the wall.
Shi Yunnan said subconsciously, “Hiss, it’s a little cold.”
Hearing this, Luo Lingsheng quickly led him back half a step, glanced up and down, smiled, and said nothing.
“What are you smiling at?”
“You’ve grown taller.”
Shi Yunnan raised his jaw triumphantly and said, “I’m still growing; maybe one day I can surpass you.”
“Oh?”
Luo Lingsheng obviously didn’t believe it.
Shi Yunnan actually didn’t want to surpass Luo Lingsheng; for him, a height of one meter eight is apparently enough.
The TV that was still on in the living room finally broadcast the countdown.
Shi Yunnan counted silently in his heart. When it hit zero, he said, “Luo Lingsheng, Happy New Year.”
“Happy New Year.”
The kiss fell and became more and more intense.
Shi Yunnan was kissed until he couldn’t breathe, but suddenly a light bulb lit up in his head.
Taking advantage of the short break, he said, “Luo Lingsheng, I will be nineteen after the New Year.”
“Yeah, I….know.”
The sound of Luo Lingsheng’s breathing was mixed with a hint of not-so-subtle lust, obviously the result of his restraint.
The intimacy between the two has always been expressed through holding hands, hugging, kissing, and sleeping in each other’s arms.
Shi Yunnan was too busy with his studies to say it directly, but now perhaps the atmosphere is in place and the little devil in him is stirring. He tilted his head towards Luo Ling Sheng’s ear and tantalizingly licked and kissed it.
“Then can we… do that?”
“…”
Luo Lingsheng’s hand around his waist suddenly tightened.
Three seconds later, the answering voice was also tense: “No.”
Shi Yunnan was embarrassed when he was refused; he paused and asked, “You, don’t you want it?”
“It’s not that I don’t want it, but it’s inappropriate now.” Luo Lingsheng approached Shi Yunnan’s lips again, kissed him for a while, and continued, “You still have to focus on the school exams.”
“Isn’t it winter vacation now? It, it’s okay, right?”
“It’s a big deal.” Luo Lingsheng tilted his head, deliberately imitating the teasing just now and kissing Shi Yunnan’s earlobe.
The slightly hot, itchy sensation spread throughout Shi Yunnan’s limbs like an electric shock, making his hands and feet soft for no reason.
Luo Lingsheng hugged him tightly and let out a hoarse and helpless laugh, “Do you really think that after fasting for so long, this one meal during the winter vacation is enough?”
“…”
Shi Yunnan understood the deep meaning of the words and was so ashamed that the blush spread from his ears to his neck and cheeks, but the recklessness in his bones was still causing trouble.
He kissed Luo Lingsheng’s chin and asked in a low voice, “Then after the college entrance examination is over, I’ll let you have your fill, okay? Luo Lingsheng? gege?”
Luo Lingsheng didn’t answer, but the breath he exhaled was distinct and heavy.
“Shi Yunnan.”
“what?”
“Who did you learn from? You dare to try that again?”
