NOVEL NEXT Chapter 303: Mysterious Play
When Ren Yuan saw the young man nodding his head, he swiftly but gently picked up the silver mask placed on the table.
"By the way, Little Cheng, do you still want to kill Lin Renshu?"
The moment Ren Yuan leaned closer, gently putting the silver mask on the young man's face, who remained quiet and obedient, he finally asked the important question about the tense atmosphere around them.
And rather than being worried about Lin Renshu's life, Ren Yuan was more curious about the young man's reply to his question.
"There we go, Little Cheng has to be more conscious about protecting himself. Don't easily remove your mask in front of other people alright? Especially when there are men around, since they are more dangerous if you stir their desire to conquer you."
"..."
Shao Cheng couldn't help but stare deeply at those peach blossom grey eyes which were closer than normal. At the same time, he ignored the supposedly kind advice of Ren Yuan who always had opinions about his appearance.
… Speaking about the problem of having an attractive face, I should also create a silver mask for him later too…
"Little Cheng? Why aren't you answering me? I'm serious! You really have to hide your face since it's simply a cause of disaster!"
After a moment of consideration and completely uncaring on such mortifying words, Shao Cheng can only sigh inwardly since he was more worried about causing Ren Yuan trouble, particularly when it was concerningt his life and well-being.
So, he finally decided to choose his next course of action by letting Ren Yuan make the decision.
"Alright, but more than that, does Brother Yuan want to keep that person's life?"
After getting the desired answer with an unusual relief feeling, Ren Yuan couldn't help but blink his grey eyes after listening to the young man asking his opinion.
And when he gazed at the close sapphire eyes barely covered by the young man's bangs. Well, he clearly and honestly perceived that his choice was extremely important to the young man.
So much so that rather than what the young man himself desired, Ren Yuan's wish mattered the most among anything else.
Gee… If I didn't know better, rather than being treated as special friend and also a savior for rescuing the young man's life, I would have thought that Little Cheng has fallen to my charm~
Ren Yuan couldn't help but inwardly shake his head, finding such thoughts funny before completely disregarding such impossible ideas. At the same time, ignoring the slight uncomfortable feeling he felt and more focused on letting out a wide grin on his face.
"Oh? I know Little Cheng likes me the most~ Or else, you would have killed him already. Little Cheng is really growing up, knowing how to start considering other people's opinions."
You usually do everything you want without telling me about it… look at how much you change… a tiny bit more troublesome than before. Now… if you just stop disappearing and going to a place I don't know off, then that would be great.
Better yet, take me with you!
While Ren Yuan raised his long crimson sleeve, dramatically acting like he was wiping the tears on his eyes with how touch he felt, the old servant has become more alert after hearing such words.
At the same time, Lin Renshu showed a surprised emotion in his eyes before it returned back to normal, just as quick as his emotion had shown. Of course, countless thoughts flashed in his mind about the third young master of the Shao Family, who seemed to have hidden quite deeply.
"He will die after a few years since he can't cure the lethal poison in his body, so there is no need to dirty Little Cheng's hands. But I am quite curious about why you wanted to kill him though. Little Cheng won't easily make a move unless it's serious enough, so, did he threaten you or cause a danger to your family?"
Lin Renshu: "..."
… As always, so ruthless and heartless… Can you at least give me a bit of consideration for all the years we worked together?
While Lin Renshu let out a sigh after the casual and easy mention of his oncoming death, Shao Cheng took a glance at the young man for a few seconds before deciding to reveal the truth.
And the entire time, he was completely ignorant of Ren Yuan who was feeling the unusual urge to beat someone up because of the few seconds of him staring deeply at another person.
"... He is friends with my younger brother, whom he fancies."
"...!!!"
Ren Yuan couldn't help but pause while reaching over to the snacks on the table, planning to give it to the young man, before shooting an accusing look at Lin Renshu who didn't show any reaction about his hidden secret being revealed so easily to another person.
"How come I didn't know that you are acquainted with Shao Cai? And wait… you like Little Cheng's younger brother???"
I have known you for a long time, but I am only hearing this for the first time.
Just how much power did you use in order to hide your association with the youngest son of the Shao Family, just to remove any possible trouble or danger that could appear?
You really have fallen deep...
Ren Yuan couldn't help but give a complicated look to the silent Lin Renshu who directly met his gaze without fear and denial.
At the same time, he felt a bit relieved that the sly fox had a lower chance of being interested in Little Cheng after being blessed enough to witness such a beautiful face for a long time.
It's better to fall for the other Shao Young Master than my Little Cheng.
While Ren Yuan felt pleased inside, he showed an expression of contempt on the surface in order to pacify the obviously brotherly protective attitude that the young man is showing, which is strong enough for him to have a murderous urge towards Lin Renshu.
"...?... Little Cheng… Why are you holding a rope?"
Ren Yuan couldn't help but stare at the strong rope the young man was holding, which caused his heartbeat to speed up with apprehension and a little bit of excitement?
… I have become weird...
"I want to fulfill Brother Yuan's desire to be punished by me."
Since I almost caused you trouble, I don't mind fulfilling what you wanted a while ago. Isn't it just to get my attention? Come, I'll make sure to make it interesting...
"...?"
Why am I being punished??? I just want to get your attention and teach you how to not suddenly leave me behind. Brother Yuan just wants to be properly taken care of…
I'm sure you already have an idea on what I usually do right???
I'm giving you the privilege to put a tight leash on the famous rascal of the entire Chang Capital! Everyone will be in awe of you! Even the people I beat up won't cause you too much trouble, just because you are my friend!
Ignoring the weird eyes of the other two people in the pavilion, Shao Cheng didn't stop and began to tie up Ren Yuan who just leaned back into his chair, and didn't run away despite the dreadful expression on his face.
… Tsk… What a great actor you are…
Surprisingly, Shao Cheng couldn't help but remember a certain situation of an acquaintance with a certain fetish in his first life, and his hands began to unconsciously move in the same way as his memory that became clearer the more he tried to remember it.
So… this is how you tie a person up in that kind of way… although I will only do it for the upper body…
"Keep still, this is my first time tying a person up."
Fortunately, the rope I'm using doesn't cause a person to be hurt despite how tough it is… Oh… this is looking interesting...
Somehow, Shao Cheng couldn't help but feel a bubbling excitement as his hands moved faster, while Ren Yuan who showed a reluctant look on the surface was becoming curious about what the young man was doing after noticing the unusualness of the way in which he was being tied.
"... Oh… don't tie it too tight…
At the same time, Ren Yuan felt relieved after sensing the brightening atmosphere around the young man.
Well, as long as Whitey is happy, besides, being tied up isn't as unusual as dressing up in female robes.
"Oh my! What an amazing scene I get to see the moment I arrive! Does my beautiful cousin want to tie up my charming younger brother because he ran away from your Mothers after refu- Umph!"
"...?"
Ran away? Ren Yuan? Really?
At the exact time Shao Cheng finished tying up the obedient Ren Yuan, he couldn't help but felt suspicious after seeing how his younger brother Cai had quickly covered Xixi mouth.
"Ah, ignore her, it's the usual crazy antics of your cousin. By the way, Little Cheng, what kind of tying method is this? I'm sure it's not the one being used on the prisoners right?"
Ren Yuan couldn't help but lower his gaze to look at the weird knots on his upper body, while Shao Cheng just accepted the reason of Xixi being in her usual crazy attitude, and was more interested in appreciating the scenery before him.
"It's a kind of play."
Just a simple and easy bondage play by one of my acquaintances who was interested in BDSM in my first life…
"Play?"
"I'm not really sure since I wasn't interested when I learned it while travelling around."
Which is true, since I never felt the need to do it.
"... So, I made you interested to try it?"
Shao Cheng couldn't help but blink his eyes after hearing Ren Yuan's unusual proud tone, especially after he finally noticed his weird thoughts and the actions he had just done, causing him to become silent for a while.
"...You could say that…"
Fuck… What am I doing???
