Before he could even find the right words, He Chao said, "I was really touched at the time."

Xie Yu struggled to find the right words to express his current feelings. In the end, he handed He Chao his poorly chosen tea cup, admitting defeat, "Your family's genes are really outstanding."

As they were strolling down the commercial street, they ran into Xu Qingqing and the rest. It was almost time to gather, so they all headed towards the meeting point together.

"Brother Qing, did you buy a hammer?" He Chao asked.

Xu Qingqing lifted the massage stick in her hand and shook it in front of him. "This isn't a hammer! I think studying is too hard, so I need a massage..."

He Chao laughed and took the stick, tapping it on Xie Yu's back as they walked.

Xie Yu grew impatient with the tapping and almost resorted to violence.

"Is everyone here?" Liu Cunhao stood at the front of the group, scanning the area. "Don't wander off, let me count..."

After Liu Cunhao finished counting, they were still missing two people.

Luo Wenqiang contacted them and hung up the phone, saying "They're still on their way, let's wait a bit. They're going to set off fireworks later anyway."

The fireworks show lasted for about ten minutes in the evening, with the fireworks rising up along the surface of the lake.

The gathering place for the queue happened to be by the lake, and when Old Tang arrived, he saw Xie Yu and He Chao sitting on the railing, being very daring as they leaned forward with their hands supporting the edge of the railing and their feet off the ground, facing the wind.

"Wow, it's so beautiful!" The others clung to the railing and couldn't resist leaning out half of their bodies.

Perhaps it was the fireworks shining on them, but each of these kids had stars twinkling in their eyes.

"At night, going out is strictly prohibited. Don't engage in any exciting nightlife. Rest peacefully in your own room. If caught, it will result in disciplinary action," on the way back, Old Tang was worried and repeatedly reminded them of this matter. "Do you all understand?"

A group of people started to make a fuss: "Who needs to go out for a fun night when we can play Monopoly? We're short one player, anyone interested? Our address is 3009, waiting for the fated one."

"Here, we're playing a high-end game of Werewolf."

"Me!"

"Count me in too!"

They automatically ignored Xie Yu, whose luck was so good that all his friends were driven away. They shouted to He Chao, "Brother Chao, are you coming? 3009 is waiting for you."

"I'm not coming," He Chao smiled and added, "I'll play something else with Old Xie."

Due to the number of people, the group from the No. 2 High School had booked three hotels. The one they were staying at was closer to the city center and had better facilities.

Indeed, a fun night didn't require leaving the hotel.

After a quick shower, Xie Yu opened the door and was immediately stopped by He Chao at the bathroom door.

With one hand propped against the wall, He Chao leisurely undid his shirt buttons, starting from the third one and working his way down: "Hey, how about we do something else? Like, me?"

This guy really couldn't go a day without being a tease.

Xie Yu didn't say anything, but leaned forward and let the water from his hair drip down as he kissed He Chao's prominent Adam's apple. Then, he opened his mouth and gave a not-too-gentle bite.

The spot was too sensitive, and He Chao couldn't help but let out a hiss.

He thought to himself that this little friend was always like this, appearing calm and collected but actually a master at teasing.

After Xie Yu's teasing, the situation quickly spiraled out of control.

Before he knew it, Xie Yu's clothes, which he had just put on not long ago, were already almost completely off.

Xie Yu leaned against the headboard, half-sitting with a few fingers lightly tangled in He Chao's hair. But as he was being serviced below, his fingers curled with an uncontrollable force.

Worried about the poor soundproofing of the hotel, Xie Yu buried half of his face in He Chao's neck, afraid to make a sound.

He lifted his hand to cover his mouth, but unconsciously bit his finger joint instead.

The slender fingers of the boy were marked with ambiguous teeth marks, but his voice still couldn't be suppressed as he moaned under his breath. Finally, when he was pushed to the limit, his voice trailed off but still remained firm: "You, damn...fuck."

"Don't bite," He Chao said, lowering his head to kiss Xie Yu's finger joint and then whispered hoarsely, "...Be obedient."

So Xie Yu lowered his hand to grab the bedsheet beneath him. His naturally fair skin made the red string on his wrist stand out even more.

After finishing, Xie Yu's legs were a bit weak as he headed to the bathroom.

Clothes were scattered all over the floor.

He wanted to offer to help Xie Yu wash, but before he could finish his sentence, the little friend who had just gotten out of bed turned around and snapped, "Get lost."

Xie Yu leaned against the wall and picked up two pieces of clothing before walking barefoot into the bathroom.

After a quick rinse, Xie Yu turned off the shower and the sound of water gradually faded away. Suddenly, there was a knocking at the door.

"Big brother, are you guys in there!"

"Is it this room? It must be this room."

"Big brother?"

"What's up?" When He Chao opened the door, his clothes were still not fully on and two scratch marks could be vaguely seen from the open collar. "You guys aren't sleeping?"

Wan Da looked around the room and asked, "Where's Brother Yu?"

He Chao clicked his tongue and pushed Wan Da's head back, "Don't look around, he's taking a shower. What's up?"

"Well...do you guys want to join us for a manly adventure?"
