Subordinate Doting - Chap 87
”Yes, brother.”
”Then stop being so sullen.”
”Okay brother.”
”Tsk, what else can you say besides okay and yes?”
Sha Moqing raised his eyes and looked at him admiringly, but his sharp and terrifying eagle eyes looked wet at this moment.
There is a lot more I want to say, but you, brother, will never listen to it again.
-
Until he returned to the base, Ji Tingyu was unable to successfully treat the bitten area because his brother was watching him too closely.
After returning, new work came immediately – I received a notice from my superiors: a batch of military supplies would soon arrive in Nivelle, which was more than 20 well-trained war horses, and the press department needed to go and receive them.
Ji Tingyu didn’t even take a breath as he led his men out in the snow to the checkpoint to receive the war horses. After returning, he counted, put them in place, and distributed them one by one. He was so busy that he didn’t even have time to rest. The work only came to an end in the evening.
After a quick dinner in the cafeteria, he walked back to the dormitory with his sore shoulder.
He pushed the door open with a creaky sound, and was enveloped in a gloomy darkness. The room was empty without a trace of warmth, except for the cool twilight coming in from the window, and a few lingering scents of He Zhuo.
The cat drooped its ears and felt a deep sense of sadness in its heart.
He realized belatedly that the words “He Zhuo” were like wildly growing hyphae, infiltrating every corner of his life. In just a few months, he couldn’t get used to being alone.
Fortunately, he was not the only one who was not used to it.
As soon as Ji Tingyu entered the dormitory, He Zhuo called.
The kitten was washing his ears in front of the mirror at that time.
He first stretched out a hand and licked it near his mouth, then raised it up and patted his ears, patting the left side and then the right side, then the outside and then the inside, until he was sure that both ears were cleaned before he stood them up and shook them majestically three times in front of the mirror.
Then, a second of discouragement.
Well, Ji Tingyu realized once again that his two ears, which were as soft as jelly, could not look majestic no matter how hard he tried to stand up.
Not only does he not look impressive, but his ears also sway left and right when he runs. When he first started boxing, he was often laughed at because of his ears. They even nicknamed him “Walnut Kitten” because his ears would swell up with blood and become particularly round when he got angry, and with the hair standing up, they looked like two fat walnuts.
“Ding-ling-ling——”
A timely ringtone drove away his depressed mood. Seeing the words “He Zhuo” on the caller ID, Ji Tingyu raised his eyebrows, walked to the window, lazily collapsed in the chair, and answered the call.
”Xiaoyu, what are you doing?”
He Zhuo’s voice was full of magnetism, massaging his cochlea.
”I’m watching the geese return to the mountains. What about you?”
”Looking for which direction you’ll look at me from.”
The cat suddenly smiled, and the little furry ears on its head trembled with excitement. Its shadow was projected on the wall, like two triangular berries.
He suddenly felt his chest was blocked, and his heart was far from enough. Some things could no longer be contained, and all of them turned into sour words and ran out –
”elder brother.”
”Um?”
”The moon is so big tonight, it’s about to collapse the Yanhui Mountain.”
——When will you come back? I’m not used to it.
”Then I will go over the moon to see you.”
He Zhuo’s voice was intoxicating, as if whispering in his ear, and also like the roar of a mountain and a tsunami, easily sweeping across thousands of miles and blowing to the sand dunes in Ji Tingyu’s heart.
He felt a slight soreness in his nose and complained to He Zhuo that he was accidentally hit in the chest during the day and it still hurt.
He Zhuo asked him how he got hit and whether he had applied any medicine.
The kitten flapped its ears and complained that it was too busy today and had no time to go to the infirmary to get medicine.
He Zhuo’s voice paused, as if he was hesitating about something.
After a few seconds he spoke: “Are you in severe pain? There are medicines at home. There is a red velvet box on the bottom shelf of the sink.”
”Under the sink? When did you put it in there?” Ji Tingyu followed his instructions and found the red velvet box under the sink.
The small box looks quite delicate, made of sandalwood, with landscapes, flowers and birds carved on it. When you open it, you will see a crystal clear water green warm jade, with a lustrous luster and a small water white round ball on the top, which smells like a faint medicinal fragrance.
Ji Tingyu was quite surprised. He picked up the jade and examined it carefully. It was warm to the touch.
”Is this the swelling-reducing medicine you rich people use? It looks pretty high-end, but why do you even have this thing ready? Did you expect that I would be hit sooner or later?”
He Zhuo paused for a moment and said bluntly, “No, that’s what I prepared to help you reduce the swelling after our first time.”
With a “click”, the warm jade fell directly into the box.
Ji Tingyu’s ears narrowed and he froze on the spot, dumbfounded.
In those few seconds, he seemed to hear the sound of his own brain exploding, and his mind was full of colorful, vivid images. Looking at the shape of the jade at this time, he instantly understood its purpose.
”What did you say? Where do I, me, me, use this thing?!”
He said “I” for a long time before coming out. He looked at the small box in his hand with extreme shame and anger, and threw it back into the sink as if it would bite him. When he thought about the thing he had touched, he wiped his hands on his clothes again, and yelled at He Zhuo with his head in a messy manner: “Fuck you, are you sick? I don’t want to use this thing in my life! I don’t want to use it even if I die!”
This time he was really furious, his ears were puffy like two dandelions, his face was redder than a ripe peach, and he didn’t know where to put his hands and feet. His tail stuck out of his body as if in stress, and bent into a big question mark.
No one told him that there were so many risks in dating! He regretted it, he didn’t want that!
He Zhuo knew he had misunderstood and quickly explained: “Xiao Yu, don’t overthink it. I’m not going to use it to do anything to you. I—”
He paused briefly, and spoke in a soft voice, as if afraid of offending the treasure in his hand, “I have been thinking about you for too long, and I am afraid that if you are willing to give yourself to me, I will not be careful and hurt you.”
