Chapter 68: Chapter 68 Just Right

Curiosity in his heart had reached its MAX, but Xu Renfei wisely chose to keep his mouth shut. Fourth Brother usually spoke sparingly, but when he did speak, it was never a joke, especially when he was displeased.

Only an idiot would provoke King Yanluo at a time like this.

Bi Xia was unaware of Xu Renfei’s thoughts. She just kept watching the young man driving the car. Even when he occasionally braked suddenly, she didn’t move an inch.

Qin Zhan drove with a blank expression, seemingly unaffected. However, sitting in the back seat, the awakened Xu Renfei noticed something odd and said, "Huh, why is he driving slower and slower?"

Finally, they reached their destination. Qin Zhan unbuckled his seatbelt and said calmly, "Seventh Brother, go find A Zhe."

Xu Renfei’s eyes glanced around before he quickly responded with a hearty, "Yes, Fourth Brother," and then cheerfully added, "Fourth Brother, control yourself," before scampering out of the car and disappearing in no time.

After a while, Qin Zhan turned his head to look at the boy who had been watching him intently the whole time. "What are you looking at?"

"You," the boy replied bluntly.

"Why are you looking at me?"

"Because you look good."

"How good?"

The boy thought for a moment and answered seriously, "No one compares to you except me."

Qin Zhan smiled at that, a smile that looked extremely happy and instantly melted away his initial coldness.

"You little brat who doesn’t know humility," he pinched the boy’s cheek and asked with a smile, "Who looks better, me or you?"

"Me," Bi Xia replied without thinking.

"Why?"

Bi Xia raised an eyebrow, "Because I’m younger than you."

Qin Zhan: ...

His previously good mood was instantly soured, and Qin Zhan frowned, "I’m only five years older than you."

Uh?

With slightly parted lips and starry eyes filled with surprise, that outrageously pretty little face expressed complete disbelief, making Qin Zhan, who usually didn’t care about others’ opinions, feel a bit exasperated, wanting to spank the boy right there.

However, noticing the boy’s mischievous expression, Qin Zhan finally sighed helplessly and pinched Bi Xia’s cheek fiercely, "You little rascal!"

"Ouch!" Bi Xia exclaimed, covering her pinched cheek with a small hand, staring pitifully at Qin Zhan with watery eyes, her little mouth slightly pouting without saying a word.

Thinking he had hurt the boy, Qin Zhan hurriedly checked his cheek. Seeing a flush spreading on his originally fair little face, he couldn’t help but feel some heartache and raised his hand to gently stroke it.

’Pia’

A slight cool sensation came over his face. He looked up to see the boy’s mischievous grin after his prank, then the boy stuck out his tongue and suddenly said seriously, "I was just joking."

"Fourth Brother is very handsome. Even in ten years, twenty years, thirty years, a hundred years, you’ll still be very handsome."

"Moreover, I don’t think you’re older than me. Five years, just right."

He had always known the boy had a pleasant voice—cold, clear, ringing like a bell. Though not full of ups and downs, it flowed smoothly, making anything he said sound comforting.

The boy indeed liked to look into people’s eyes when he talked, giving each of his words an enchanting power that went straight to the heart.

"Just right"...three simple words, deeply imprinted on the young man’s heart.

His phoenix eyes profoundly darkened, gazing intently at the boy’s smile, a smile so warm that one would want to hold onto it forever.

To lock it away, to keep it, making it belong only to him.

Qin Zhan felt he was seriously ill, very ill.

Raising his hand to clasp the boy’s chin, his gaze fixed on the boy’s dark, clear starry eyes.

For a long time, he slightly lowered his head, restraint and reverence without a hint of desecration, touching the boy’s eyelids.

"Fourth Brother..."

Bi Xia blinked, his watery eyes brimming with confusion as he looked at the young man who suddenly kissed his eyelids.

"Little Nine..."

"I’m here."

The large hand brushed against the trembling eyelids, and a light sigh escaped, "Don’t be afraid of Fourth Brother..."

Afraid? Why be afraid?

As he straightened up, facing the boy’s puzzled gaze, Qin Zhan lowered his eyes slightly, hooking his lips faintly, and said softly, "Let’s go, let’s eat."
