211 Chapter 211

Lu Yan entered the village and saw Yu Su standing next to the lookout tower, watching him.

Yu Su intentionally wore slightly more formal clothes today. The frosty color on him appeared exceptionally gentle. When his gaze turned towards Lu Yan, it was clear and soft, directly reaching into Lu Yan's heart.

Unable to resist, Lu Yan quickly walked towards Yu Su, intending to hold his hand, but heard Yu Meng and the others entering behind him.

Yu Su's fingers lightly hooked onto the reaching hand and then let go.

"Brother Yu Su, this time we really scared Mang Village and Daji Village. You didn't see the scene back then," Yu Meng eagerly wanted to tell Yu Su what happened.

Next to him, Yu Shan, sharp-eyed, noticed the subtle interactions between Yu Su and Lu Yan. Seeing Lu Yan's unfriendly gaze when he turned to look at them, Yu Shan immediately embraced Yu Meng's shoulder.

"Lord Yu Su, let's go freshen up first and tell you the details later."

"What are you doing? Go by yourselves; I'm not tired."

"We've rushed for such a long time, barely had any baths. We're all sweaty; you don't want to stink up Lord Yu Su."

Yu Meng paused, lifted his arm, sniffed a bit, admitting it wasn't pleasant. He knew Yu Su cherished cleanliness, so he quickly said, "Brother Yu Su, I'll go find you after I take a shower."

"Go on, don't stink up Lord Yu Su," Yu Shan pulled him away.

Others hurriedly went back to wash up, fearing they might stink up Yu Su.

Lu Yan, seeing them sensibly leave, felt relieved. He turned to Yu Su, saying, "I'm clean."

Anticipating meeting Yu Su, he had already used a purification spell. Now he felt refreshed, free from worrying about stinking.

Yu Su hadn't even noticed Lu Yan's details; his attention was captivated by Lu Yan's gaze and subtle gestures.

Worried about revealing any more gestures, Yu Su said, "Let's go home."

Lu Yan's eyes lit up, "Okay."

Is Yu Su about to fulfill his promise? Before leaving, Yu Su had agreed to try with him once they returned.

Lu Yan's heartbeat quickened, blood surged through his body, palms burning; he wished to carry Yu Su right now, flying back home.

Yu Su and Lu Yan walked home side by side. Lu Yan seemed a bit silent, as if contemplating something. Yu Su turned to him, "Why aren't you talking?"

At this moment, Yu Su hadn't recalled his promise to Lu Yan, so although excited about the reunion, his mind didn't wander to other thoughts.

Lu Yan looked at him with intensely heated eyes, "I'm afraid I can't control myself when talking."

Yu Su: "Hmm?"

Can't control what?

It's just talking; what's the problem?

Not until the two reached home, Lu Yan closed the door with a bang, set up a barrier around the house, did Yu Su vaguely realize what was happening.

Lu Yan immediately lifted him up, heading towards his room.

Yu Su: "Wait, what are you doing?"

Lu Yan: "You promised me, to try when you came back."

Yu Su: "!!"

He quickly patted Lu Yan, "It's daytime now; you just returned and need to meet the village chief and others."

Lu Yan: "Tomorrow is fine; in a little over an hour, it'll be dark."

Yu Su: "There's no need to rush this bit..."

*Bang!* Both of them fell onto Lu Yan's bed together. The soft bedding bore the weight of the two, creating a deep indentation. Before Yu Su could finish his sentence, Lu Yan sealed his lips.

After a recent period of practice, Lu Yan's experience in this aspect rapidly advanced. It didn't take long for him to forget many things in the heat of the moment. His hand rested on Yu Su's neck.

Even in the midst of confusion, Yu Su regained his senses. He gripped Lu Yan's wrist, breathing heavily. "Wait."

Lu Yan looked at him with a momentary look of grievance. "You promised me."

Yu Su composed himself. "I promised you to try. So, if you don't want me to be uncomfortable, follow my instructions step by step."

Lu Yan, unwilling to make Yu Su uncomfortable, resisted his desire to merge completely. He looked at Yu Su eagerly. "How should we try?"

Yu Su hesitated. "Go to my room. There's a small bottle on the top shelf of the medicine cabinet. Bring it over."

Lu Yan, a bit puzzled, went to Yu Su's room and found the bottle in the medicine cabinet. He brought it back.

As soon as he entered the room, he froze in place.

Yu Su sat on the bed with his back to him, clothes removed. White fabric gathered at his waist, and his neck was fair and smooth. The sight of his delicate back bewitched Lu Yan.

Closing the door, Lu Yan approached the bed step by step. Kneeling at the edge, he reached down, his hand sliding down from Yu Su's neck. He lightly bit Yu Su's earlobe, his voice husky. "Yu Su."

Yu Su turned around, grabbing his wandering hand, took a deep breath, and said, "Open the bottle, pour some onto your hand, then... I'll teach you."

Lu Yan followed the instructions. When his hand was guided by Yu Su to a certain place, his eyes suddenly lit up. He lowered his head to Yu Su's neck, whispering, "I understand."

...

After Yu Su and Lu Yan returned home, they didn't appear again.

No one disturbed them; everyone knew they were a couple, and reunions between lovers surely involved a lot of private matters. How could anyone disturb them?

At this moment, Yu Meng finally understood why Yu Shan pulled him away. He slapped his forehead.

Fortunately, Yu Shan pulled him away; otherwise, he worried Yu Shan might have to help collect his corpse tomorrow.

Next morning.

Yu Su woke up from the soft bed, a hand still wrapped around his waist, someone sleeping closely behind him.

Listening to Lu Yan's breathing, he knew Lu Yan was already awake.

Thinking about what happened yesterday, Yu Su wanted to grit his teeth.

Mingming initially said to give it a try, but in the end...

Moreover, this Lu Yan is really someone who loses control as soon as things get heated. His lower back is extremely sore now; he probably won't be able to get up today.

Yu Su gritted his teeth and cast a healing spell on himself to barely ease the discomfort. Then, he turned and kicked Lu Yan off the bed.

Lu Yan rolled off the bed, quickly stood up, and anxiously looked at Yu Su. "You're awake, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Yesterday, when he regained his sanity, he checked on Yu Su and found an injury.

He regretted it; he blamed himself for losing control.

Even now, after being kicked off the bed, he could only worry about whether Yu Su's foot hurt.

Yu Su wanted to get up but his lower back was still sore, so he went back down. "Yesterday, I said it was just a try. I told you to stop, but you..."

Lu Yan's expression dimmed upon hearing this. He carefully knelt on the bed, looking at Yu Su with a pained expression, and said, "I'm sorry. If you're not willing, I won't do it again."

Yu Su looked at him, confirmed that he was truly regretful, and his expression improved a bit. "Go to my room and fetch the small pottery bottle I mentioned."

"Okay."

Lu Yan hurried to Yu Su's room and brought back everything Yu Su mentioned.

Yu Su gritted his teeth, gave him a glare, and said, "Apply the medicine for me."

Lu Yan already knew what to do. He applied the medicine carefully.

"Massage my lower back."

"Sure."

Lu Yan diligently attended to Yu Su, applied the medicine, massaged his back, used spiritual power to clear his meridians. Seeing Yu Su's relaxed expression, he finally relaxed too.

"I'm sorry; I lost control and hurt you. If you want to vent, just hit me or scold me."

Yu Su snorted. He knew that last night wasn't just Lu Yan; he too was equally indulged and couldn't extricate himself. So, he couldn't entirely blame Lu Yan for it.

But he was the one suffering, and he couldn't let it go without some retribution.

The kick just now had already relieved some of his anger. Now, with Lu Yan carefully taking care of him, the discomfort on his body also lessened.

"Don't do this again in the future. You have to listen to me."

"Okay."

"If you can't do it, I won't let you touch me again."

"Okay."

Yu Su glanced at the sky outside; it was about time for him to appear. Otherwise, everyone would suspect what he and Lu Yan were doing inside.

"Go heat some water; I want to take a bath."

Lu Yan naturally rushed to the bathroom, using spiritual power to heat a large bucket of hot water for Yu Su. After testing the temperature, he felt it was right and went into the room to lift Yu Su out and place him in the bath.

The moment the hot water enveloped his body, Yu Su sighed comfortably.

He took out some medicinal powder from his spatial storage, poured it into the hot water, and activated it with spiritual power. The medicinal fragrance spread, and Yu Su sat in the bath, leaning against the tub.

"I'll help you wash," Lu Yan said.

"No need; I'll soak for a while."

Lu Yan thought for a moment, picked up a bucket from the corner, poured it over himself, and took a bath. After washing up, he wanted to get into the bath with Yu Su.

He was stopped by Yu Su. "What are you doing?"

"With you."

"No, after you wash, go out."

Lu Yan looked at him with a pleading expression.

"Absolutely not."

If Lu Yan got in, who knows what might happen.

"I'm hungry; prepare some food for me."

Only then did Lu Yan give up the idea of bathing together with Yu Su. He put on his clothes, went out, and prepared food for Yu Su.

Yu Su sighed with relief, and after soaking for two moments, most of the discomfort on his body disappeared.

He put on his clothes and went out; Lu Yan had already prepared the food.

Yu Su ate casually and was ready to go out.

Lu Yan grabbed his hand. "Where are you going?"

"I need to check on those people you brought back."

Lu Yan frowned. "You're still not feeling well."

"I'm fine now. Today, I have to discuss the resettlement of those people with the village chief. You should come too."

Still, Lu Yan didn't want Yu Su to go out. He felt Yu Su needed proper rest.
