Zhou Kai returned home to find his parents still at work. He sent them both messages to let them know he was back, dragged his suitcase into his room, grabbed some clothes, took a shower, and then went out again.
His bike was parked in front of the shop. Zhou Kai grabbed the handlebars and turned to look at the sign hanging above the door. His eyebrows shot up immediately. He then looked at the customers. There were three or four people sitting inside, and two more were standing outside. The corners of his mouth immediately curled up, and he finally relaxed.
After parking and locking his bike, Zhou Kai pulled down the zipper of his jacket and walked over. The two customers, a boy and a girl, both wearing their high school uniforms, took their drinks and glanced at Zhou Kai. Zhou Kai smiled lightly at them, and the two girls blushed and left even faster.
“Hello,” said the two staff members. The boy was making drinks and only glanced at Zhou Kai. The girl smiled sweetly and asked Zhou Kai very softly, “What would you like to order?”
Zhou Kai looked at her, then at the boy. He tapped his fingers on the ceramic countertop and looked at the drinks on the menu one by one. The more he looked, the deeper his smile became. Finally, he pointed to one line and said, “I’ll have a medium-sized ‘Solid Ground’.”
The girl nodded, placed his order, and asked, “Would you like it hot or cold?”
Exhaling white breath, Zhou Kai rubbed his slightly cold fingers, blinked, and replied, “Cold, please. Cold drinks are more refreshing.”
The girl smiled and asked, “Is that all?”
Zhou Kai looked at the other food itemsāfries, burgers, and grilled wings. He had eaten a very big sandwich on the train, so he wasn’t really hungry now.
“No, that’s all. Just ‘Solid Ground’.”
The girl nodded, smiled at him, and went to talk to the boy who was making the drinks. They stood side by side, whispering to each other, looking very intimate.
Zhou Kai watched them and smiled, his lips pursed. He lowered his head and continued to study the drink names. Besides the one he ordered, āSolid Groundā, there were also āThree Autumns in a Dayā, āImminentā, āBittersweetā, and āUnyieldingā. Zhou Kai wanted to try them all.
Stepping back to the door, Zhou Kai looked up at the sign again. The snake-like words āChew the Futureā paired with the peony flowers clustered around the words made Zhou Kai’s face flush and his heart feel a mixture of sweetness and bitterness.
He snorted and lowered his head, couldn’t help but smile, shook his head and exhaled. He walked up to pay with his phone and took the cold milk tea in his hand. He took a big sip.
The first sip didn’t taste like anything special, and neither did the second. Zhou Kai held the cup in front of him and examined it carefully, smacking his lips and squinting his eyes.
It was no different from the same drink with the same ingredients at other shops. Was the price too low? Wouldn’t they lose a lot of money selling it at this price?
The female staff member noticed Zhou Kai’s actions and was about to come over and ask him what was wrong. But when she saw someone gesturing to her behind Zhou Kai, she looked at Zhou Kai in confusion and didn’t say anything.
Zhou Kai licked his lips, just about to take a third sip when a hand suddenly reached out from behind and snatched the drink from his hand, startling him. When he turned around and saw who had taken his drink, Zhou Kai was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes welled up.
He stared at the person, pursing his lips and sniffing softly. “Give me my drink back,” he mumbled.
The female employee behind Zhou Kai watched as the young man who had taken the customer’s drink took a big gulp without any hesitation. She was stunned and whispered excitedly to her boyfriend, “Something’s going on here!”
The male employee turned his girlfriend around and sighed in annoyance, “Stop imagining things.”
After finishing Zhou Kai’s cold drink in a few gulps, He Ye crumpled the cup and threw it into the trash can at the door. He turned back to Zhou Kai, scrutinizing him from head to toe, then took a deep breath and asked, “Still want ‘Solid Ground’? Or something else?”
Zhou Kai looked at him, wanting to hug him and kiss him. He shuffled his feet and said softly, “Something else… ‘Within Sight’.”
He Ye nodded, unbuttoned his sleeves, and rolled them up to make the drink. The male employee gave up his place when he saw He Ye was going to make it himself.
The female employee was even more excited. Her eyes darted between He Ye, who was making the drink, and Zhou Kai, who was leaning against the counter, staring at He Ye. Her mind was racing, and her imagination was running wild.
A regular customer came in and was surprised to see the manager making the drinks himself. After placing his order, the manager took the drink and pulled the man standing next to him towards the inside. Then they went upstairs.
The second floor was a private area that the staff rarely went to unless they had to.
The customer looked at the stairs, puzzled. “I thought you were making the drinks yourself. Apparently not?”
The female employee giggled and waved her hand. “No, no, our manager’s friend is here, so he’s making a drink for his friend. What would you like? We’ll make it for you. I promise it will taste…”
Upstairs, in the room, they closed the door and drew the curtains. Before Zhou Kai could even take off his coat, he was pressed against the wall, kissed and nibbled. It had been three months since they last saw each other. He Ye had traveled a long way by train to see Zhou Kai at his university. Although it hadn’t been that long, for both Zhou Kai and He Ye, every day apart felt like an eternity.
Zhou Kai’s lips were numb from the kisses. He whimpered and grabbed He Ye’s hand, which was rubbing his chest and waist, and pulled it away. He took a deep breath and looked at He Ye with pleading eyes, “There are still customers downstairs. Aren’t you afraid they’ll hear us?”
He Ye rubbed his finger over Zhou Kai’s tattoo and pulled on his hardened nipple, making Zhou Kai gasp and twist. He pressed his own erection against Zhou Kai’s and said in a hoarse voice, “I want to fuck you, I can’t hold back. I’ll be gentle, and you try to be quiet so they won’t hear us. The soundproofing in this room isn’t very good.”
“Damn,” Zhou Kai muttered, amused. “We have to be so careful.” He shook his head and refused, though not very firmly, “Forget it, you can hold back, but I can’t.”
He Ye panted and lowered his head, capturing Zhou Kai’s lips in a kiss. He thrust his hips, grinding against Zhou Kai’s hardening member, and said in a deep, amused voice, “Really? The shop is open until eleven, and it’s only three now. There are still eight hours, four hundred and eighty minutes, twenty-eight thousand…”
Zhou Kai listened to He Ye’s words, and before he could finish, Zhou Kai reached down and squeezed He Ye’s hardened member through his pants, causing He Ye to choke and lose his words.
Licking his wet lips, Zhou Kai squinted and panted softly, brushing his nose against He Ye’s. “You’re not bad, designing a logo like that.”
He Ye reached down and unbuttoned his pants, pulling down his zipper, allowing Zhou Kai to touch him without any obstruction. He also touched Zhou Kai, making him moan softly, before asking, “How many days did you think about me after I left? I thought it was pretty good when I drew it up, so I decided to use it. What do you think?”
His glans being rubbed, Zhou Kai felt too much pleasure and turned away, refusing He Ye’s touch. He also let go of He Ye’s penis, pushed He Ye to sit on the bed, and squatted down, supporting He Ye’s legs. He looked up at He Ye and said, “It’s a little naughty. I can’t believe you came up with that.”
With his penis being sucked into his lover’s mouth, He Ye’s abdominal muscles tensed, and he panted, running his fingers through Zhou Kai’s hair and laughing softly. “No one else understands, only you. What are you afraid of?”
Since his mouth was full, Zhou Kai could only roll his eyes. He Ye rubbed his fingers against Zhou Kai’s reddened cheeks, “Why didn’t you tell me you were coming back? You said I would pick you up.”
“It’s fine if you picked me up the first time. There’s no need to do it every time. I’m not that clingy.”
Feeling that it was enough, Zhou Kai stood up and took off his clothes. He Ye pulled him onto the bed, wrapped the blanket around him, and helped him undress, raising an eyebrow. “Want me to do it for you?”
Pulling his underwear down and throwing it aside, Zhou Kai pulled at He Ye’s clothes. Hearing He Ye’s suggestion, he twisted his hips, allowing He Ye’s penis to slip into his ass, and murmured, “Won’t it be too deep?”
He Ye chuckled, pulled him down for a kiss, and said, “You decide how deep you want it.”
Zhou Kai’s ears turned red. He blinked a few times, bent down to kiss He Ye, and twisted his hips, grinding against He Ye’s penis. He shivered sensitively and whispered against He Ye’s ear, “Lube, condom…”
He Ye had already brought them. He had bought them, and when his house was demolished, he had brought them with him.
It was a bit embarrassing to expand himself, so Zhou Kai moved his hand behind him, occasionally glancing at He Ye, and groaned softly when he hit the sensitive spot. His face turned red.
He Ye watched, amused, and used both hands to pinch his nipples and rub his penis, making Zhou Kai’s body go soft. He couldn’t help but lean into him.
He Ye put on a thin condom and handed it to Zhou Kai. Zhou Kai squeezed it in his hand and felt a little nervous. He looked up at He Ye and said, “Or should I let you do it?” But before He Ye could answer, he shook his head. “No, I’ll try… slowly, I’ll be able to get it all in.”
Saying that, Zhou Kai lifted his hips and sat on He Ye’s waist, aligning He Ye’s glans with his anus. He licked his lips and slowly sat down.
Lying flat, He Ye watched, his temples throbbing. He held Zhou Kai’s hips and bent his knees so Zhou Kai could lean on him. When He Ye’s pubic hair brushed against his anus, Zhou Kai took a deep breath.
He Ye groaned when Zhou Kai clamped down on him, his hand tightening around Zhou Kai’s buttocks. “Fuck!”
Zhou Kai propped himself up on He Ye, ran his hand down their joined bodies, and gently twisted his hips. He looked up at He Ye, who was staring at him with a fierce expression, and smiled triumphantly.
He Ye glared at him, his chest rising and falling rapidly. In a hoarse voice, he said, “Don’t tease me, or I’ll be rough with you and make you cry.”
Zhou Kai raised his hand to rub his itchy nipple and slowly moved his hips, listening to the sound of the lubricant. He squinted and smiled softly, looking at He Ye, who was trying to restrain himself. “It’s kind of naughty of you to come up with that.”
He Ye’s eyes darkened, and he wrapped his arms around Zhou Kai’s waist, sitting up suddenly. He held Zhou Kai in his arms, making him moan as he moved. Zhou Kai wrapped his arms around He Ye’s neck, unable to speak as he was kissed and felt He Ye thrust into him.
The position was so deep that Zhou Kai felt like he was going to break. His ass was filled to the brim, and it itched and tingled. He wanted He Ye to be even rougher with him to relieve the itch.
He Ye wanted to be rough, but every time he did, Zhou Kai would moan. The seductive moans made He Ye even more excited and caused him to fuck him harder.
It was a vicious cycle.
If they were in He Ye’s old house, He Ye would have done whatever he wanted. Zhou Kai would have asked him to go deeper and harder, and he would have fucked Zhou Kai until he cried and begged for mercy. But they were in He Ye’s rented two-story shop, and there were customers downstairs. The street outside was noisy with people and cars.
He Ye didn’t dare go too far. He just gently fucked Zhou Kai, and when Zhou Kai was about to reach his climax, he kissed Zhou Kai’s mouth, swallowing his moans.
Panting on the bed, Zhou Kai glared at He Ye, who was smiling smugly. He twisted his waist and said, “I’m never doing this during the day again.”
He Ye kissed him and slowly pulled out of him, taking off the condom and throwing it into the trash can. He lay down beside him and said, “Then we’ll do it at night. We can do it more times.”
Zhou Kai hummed and ran his hand over He Ye’s sweaty face. His eyes were filled with affection. “Is running the shop really that tiring?”
He Ye lay on his side and nodded. “It’s okay, as long as I can make money.”
Zhou Kai thought about the forgotten āWithin Sightā drink and wanted to get up and take a look, but he saw the photo frame on the bedside table. He froze, then shrank back into the bed, wrapping his arms around He Ye and laughing foolishly. “You knew?” He Ye hadn’t even asked him, and he thought He Ye hadn’t noticed.
He Ye closed his eyes, kneading Zhou Kai’s waist, and a ripple of emotion passed through him. But on the surface, he said calmly, “I knew.”
“…Damn… I thought you hadn’t noticed when you moved. I thought you had thrown it away.” Zhou Kai sniffed. “Luckily, you didn’t.”
He Ye said nothing, but pulled Zhou Kai closer and buried his face in his neck, breathing deeply. He sighed silently.
He knew. He knew when he found the photo when he moved.
It couldn’t have been high school. It must have been middle school.
Zhou Kai had liked him for so long, and he had no idea. He was such a fool, he hadn’t noticed at all.
And Zhou Kai didn’t say anything either. If it weren’t for this photo, when would he have known?
Zhou Kai had liked him silently for almost six years. He was such a fool too.
