The request from Danqi was clearly intentional.
He had been staring at the beautiful youth all the time, refusing to shift his gaze even slightly. To say such a thing must have come with a secret motive. He desired a kiss and was using his actions to inform others just how capable he was of such a gesture toward the young man with black hair. It was both impolite and ambiguous.
The beautiful youth bit his lip, looking at Danqi with hesitation, silently begging him to take back his words. Meanwhile, the stares from the other men became increasingly dark. No matter how law-abiding and self-controlled a man might be, he would likely change his demeanor in the face of such a scenario. Hidden jealousy arose, along with a hint of “why not me?”
Under these intertwined emotions, the air in this small corner became charged with ambiguity. Unlike others, the beautiful youth appeared frail and delicate. Since entering the villa, he had been the center of attention, recounting his achievements in front of so many people, only to be asked to kiss someone publicly now.
Yan Chuan pressed his lips together, feeling as if Danqi was putting him on the spot.
With so many people in the hall, even if no one was looking, there were still five others at this long table. Danqi wanted him to… kiss him in front of everyone? There was no directive in the task that specified what others should do, was there?
Yan Chuan puffed his cheeks, making his face appear slightly rounder. He lowered his gaze, glancing back and forth between Danqi and the others. Not only were there other people at the table, but also his past “lover” and “husband.” He had to count them as “them.” Oh, and there was a stranger whom he did not recognize.
Yet, whether he recognized them or not no longer mattered. To leave this villa, he needed to complete the spinning wheel game, and they were only at the fourth participant. If he refused, and Danqi would not switch to another task, how could they get out…?
Reluctantly, Yan Chuan began to approach.
He walked slowly, each step exceptionally small, taking almost a minute to cover the short distance to Danqi. But no matter how much he tried to delay, he eventually arrived.
Standing before Danqi, the latter had an impressive physique—not only was he tall, but he also had broad shoulders, exuding strength. The delicate and beautiful black-haired youth had to lift his head slightly to meet his gaze. The height difference became even more pronounced when they stood together.
Perhaps due to this difference, the black-haired youth lowered his gaze, his eyelashes trembling. The center of attention, the beautiful youth tilted his head back slightly. His face was small, with a pointed chin, giving him an oddly endearing quality. His thick black lashes fluttered, and his eyes glistened with unshed tears, lips slightly pursed.
Compared to the tall man in front of him, he indeed appeared helpless and pitiful. “Could you lower your head a bit…” the beautiful black-haired youth whispered, looking up at the handsome man. He truly wasn’t able to reach someone much taller than himself.
Danqi cooperatively lowered his head. His demeanor was calm, his expression unchanging, but the tension in his tightly pressed lips revealed his unease.
The beautiful black-haired youth blinked, not appearing as calm as he looked. A slightly rapid breathing sound hovered in the air. The lighting was bright. The tall, handsome man bent down to accommodate the shorter beautiful youth.
His aura, formerly one of pride and indiscipline, was now willing to bow down for someone else. The youth trembled slightly, standing on his tiptoes and placing a gentle kiss on the tanned cheek.
It was just a light kiss, fleeting and barely even qualifying as a true kiss, as he only pressed his lips against the man’s cheek instead of on his lips. The kiss on the cheek was also rather inadequate. His cool, soft lips barely brushed against the cheek, and he pulled away almost shyly.
The beautiful black-haired youth quickly lowered his head, intending to retreat to his spot. But before he could step back, a large hand with a slightly deeper skin tone grasped his slender wrist.
Looking down, he saw the large hand. The beautiful youth appeared somewhat surprised, his lips slightly parted, seemingly wanting to say something.
But before he could speak, Danqi pulled him closer, using one hand to grip the delicate, beautiful neck and pressing down slightly.
A hurried kiss landed precisely on the soft lips of the beautiful youth. It didn’t just stop at a peck; Danqi wrapped his strong arms around the slender waist, as if he aimed to crush the youth in his embrace.
Danqi’s urgency reflected in the kiss, his lips passionately parting to engage with the other, producing wet sounds that lingered in the air. “Mmm…” Danqi was too forceful, causing the beautiful youth discomfort, causing his brows to furrow as he emitted a sound of reluctance.
The beautiful youth was trapped against the broad, powerful shoulder, his pale palm pushing against Danqi’s shoulder, the tips of his fingers turning slightly white.
Yet, his strength was insufficient, and given the position where Danqi fully enveloped him in his embrace, he could only let out soft whimpers of protest. Even the sound of resistance was feeble.
With his head lowered, Danqi’s tousled hair was a bit prickly, leaving the beautiful youth with no place to exert his strength. His lips bore the most evidence of being bullied, now red and noticeably swollen.
His chin and neck were entirely pink, whether from embarrassment or from Danqi’s roughness. The moisture in his eyes betrayed the tears that hovered, threatening to spill at any moment.
