Chapter 180 - Cold Period

Jiang Luo's heart flashed with laughter, but his brow furrowed as he stepped around Chi You and tried to walk out.

But in a flash he was pinned heavily against the wall by Chi You.

The handsome evil spirit presses down on him, enveloping the dark-haired youth in his own shadow. Chi You hooks the headband that Jiang Luo has tied around his hair, and with a slight hook, it breaks, sending black hair cascading over his shoulders.

Strands of hair dangled from the corners of Jiang Luo's eyes, which were red from the heat, from Jiang Luo's ears and from Jiang Luo's collarbone.

The evil spirit, "You haven't said the answer."

Jiang Luo said coldly, "How am I being lukewarm to you?"

Jiang Luo's every movement is magnified in Chi You's eyes, impatience, restraint, indifference, like a slow-speed movie that skips through frame by frame. Chi You picks up a strand of his hair, Jiang Luo suddenly frowns and gives a soft "hiss", "You're hurting me."

It was a scolding, with a note of resentment. But the words come out as if they are wrapped in a layer of sweet candy floss, and Chi You does not let go of his hand, but curls Jiang Luo's hair upwards twice.

"Is the hair shorter?" Chi You rambled, "Or is it just me?"

But he has made it clear that Jiang Luo's hair is indeed a hair shorter.

Jiang Luo is patiently silent and, for the first time in his life, he doesn't push back, but Chi You continues to be exhilarated instead of displeased. He lets go of Jiang Luo's hair, and when Jiang Luo's expression is slightly relieved, he takes hold of his waist again and lifts Jiang Luo off the ground.

Jiang Luo subconsciously climbed his legs on top of him and grabbed Chi You's shoulders with both hands, only after doing so did he realise what he had done, like a three-year-old still breastfeeding, without any semblance of good looks.

The evil spirit's hand was like an iron brand, grinding hard against Jiang Luo's bones, one by one, in a burst of pain. Jiang Luo had to climb hard on his body to relieve the evil spirit's pincer-like finger bones. His eyes narrowed slightly, curving cunningly, and his smile flickered.

"Let go." Jiang Luo .

Evil spirit, "Tell me the reason for being lukewarm to me and I'll put you down."

He holds Jiang Luo by the thighs and pins him against the wall. The two long human legs pass through the crook of his arm, sprawled out in mid-air.

Jiang Luo's face was ugly, "You won't let go, will you?"

The evil spirit laughed but did not say anything.

Jiang Luo's expression slowly changed. The corners of his mouth curled up abruptly, his pretty face dripping with enough charm at this moment. He cupped the wicked ghost's hand and pressed it forehead to forehead, his narrow, phoenix-shaped eyes slightly teased with sweetness and affection hidden within, like a compulsive, voluptuous ghost.

"Have I ever been hot for you before?" Jiang Luo's lips flicked open and heat spilled from his lips, "Was it ever as hot as it is now?"

The evil spirit held him firmly, his eyes fixed on him with a misplaced stare.

Jiang Luo's lips are stained with sweat, and when they touch they stick together for a brief moment and then quickly part. The moment of connection reminds Chi You of what it was like to kiss Jiang Luo, the touch, the heat and the taste.

His palms kept tightening.

It has almost left fingerprint marks on Jiang Luo's body.

Jiang Luo is able to ignite Chi You without doing these actions, not to mention the effect they have when he does. Jiang Luo is well aware of Chi You's reaction and is even happy, excited and secretly satisfied by it. He has long been aware of the change in his psyche, but has no intention of exploring the reasons behind it.

But Jiang Luo is a selfish man who doesn't want to understand what his changes mean, but wants to keep himself at the forefront of Chi You's mind, so he simply agrees to Ge Wuchen, because he wants to see both the wretchedness of the evil spirit burning with lust and the extent of his influence on him.

The impact has proven to be significant.

Jiang Luo felt the flesh on his thighs being constantly and ambiguously kneaded by Chi You, the aggressive and dangerous gaze of the evil spirit. And Jiang Luo, through the clothes between himself and him, clearly feels Chi You's muscles growing harder and harder.

But he pretended to be oblivious, as if he had no idea of his attraction to Chi You, his waist moving, his spine against the wall trying to break free, "That's what I call hot, Chi You. I haven't been hot for you before, so it's not hot and cold. Okay, there's your answer, you let go of me."

The evil spirit was so provoked that he stepped forward instead, compressing Jiang Luo's remaining space. His hand cannot go against the evil spirit's chest and must rest on the evil spirit's shoulder.

"Not hot? Then who had a reaction on the phone and who kissed me in my dreams."

The evil spirit asked in a low voice, his hand patting Jiang Luo intimately, "Is it a puppy."

"That's a man's instinct," Jiang Luo grunted, the seductive look fading from his face as he said, "It has nothing to do with you."

He went cold again.

Just now they were being intimate, but in the blink of an eye Jiang Luo has changed his face again. The evil spirit has no idea what Jiang Luo is thinking, and the way he looks at Jiang Luo is so frightening that it looks like he wants to tear Jiang Luo apart on the spot.

It was appalling, and even made Jiang Luo's heart and liver quiver. He coughed up his throat and the more he did so, the bolder he became, "What's that look on your face? Chi You, you're the one who called, you're the one who came up to me. And now you're following me to the toilet, just like a stalker pervert. It's always you who's hot, so tell me, are you trying to get a date with me again this time?"

"Does that even need to be asked?" The evil spirit replied indifferently.

There was a faint sound of conversation from outside the toilet, someone had come to use the toilet.

Jiang Luo frowned as the appearance of calmness was broken, "Someone's coming, let go of me now."

When he was anxious, Chi You became more comfortable, "Where are the answers."

Jiang Luo looked at him with anger in his eyes.

Chi You was in no hurry and said with interest, "The men outside are coming in soon, and if you don't give me an answer in time to satisfy me, they will see the rider who just won first place, just like that, in the arms of another man. So, date or no date?"

The sounds outside were getting closer.

He was still giving Jiang Luo the count, "ten metres, nine metres, eight metres ......"

At the last moment, Jiang Luo's face was red with anger, and he inclined his head, the white side of his face to the evil spirit, and said through clenched teeth, "Good."

The corners of his eyebrows and eyes were wrapped in surly anger, obviously angry, but like a demon out of thin air with a little more teasing.

The evil spirit laughed, "I've called you through and come to you many times on my own accord, shouldn't you come back once more?"

He pressed his upper body down and was tempted to kiss Jiang Luo on the side of his face.

Jiang Luo said, "...... I will reach out to you and will call you."

The evil spirit buried its head from the side of his face to the nape of his neck, and Jiang Luo squeezed the back of Chi You's neck as if in restraint, and he gave a soft, deliberate muffled grunt.

Jiang Luo locked eyes with himself in the mirror, his face turning a thin red to a deeper shade as the dark-haired young man in the mirror gave a high, raised smile.

The evil spirit finally let go of him.

......

Jiang Luo walked out just as the man outside the door pushed it open and walked in with a quick, cold face, ignoring the rolling eyes behind him.

He went out and found Wen Renlian, with whom he exchanged a glance before the two left in the night.

On the way, after securing his surroundings, Jiang Luo laughed out loud and told Wen Renlian about Chi You's last expression, "He was definitely looking forward to me reaching out to him."

It's like putting the boogeyman in the fire and bringing him to a screeching halt. I guess from now on, the evil spirit will be waiting for Jiang Luo's call at all times.

Wen Renlian brainstormed Chi You's expression and couldn't hold back his laughter. "What do you do next?"

Jiang Luo had a twinkle in his eye, "Leave him out in the cold."

"Next, I'll keep him cold," Jiang Luo curls his lips, "and he'll go from anticipation to disappointment to anger at being teased by me. By the time he can't resist coming to me, he'll find that he can't find me. This thirst would come in waves, from peak to trough to anger, and then after seeing me again, the anger would react chemically and rise again to a higher peak."

One can only imagine the look on Chi You's face when his excitement reached its peak as he waited day after day for Jiang Luo's promise.

Wen Renlian exclaims, "You're out of your league."

Jiang Luo is too demonic at heart, and he reckons that if he continues, Jiang Luo will only become more and more demonic.

It was already ten o'clock in the evening when I returned to Lu Youyi's flat. As Jiang Luo parked his car, he and Wen Renlian were about to enter the building when three people got out of a car downstairs and blocked Jiang Luo's way.

"Young Master, the Master wants to see you."

It was the three Shen Ruma brothers who had waited from dinner trepidation until now.
