evenly matched

Zhan Yang is often indoors during this period, his skin is much fairer than before, his slightly long bangs cover his thick black eyebrows, and he looks as obedient as he sleeps with his head tilted.

Yuan Xiao stared at it for a while, then smiled, and leaned in to touch Zhan Yang's cheek lightly.

The person who was sleeping soundly woke up immediately, opened his eyes and saw that it was Yuan Xiao, his tense body instantly relaxed, and with his arm, he hugged Yuan Xiao and forced him to sit beside him.

"Where did you go?" Zhan Yang's voice was unexpectedly gentle with a nasal sound that did not wake up.

"Peninsula coffee." Yuan Xiao adjusted his posture and put Zhan Yang's head on his chest. The other party didn't object, so he combed Zhan Yang's soft hair time after time.

Zhan Yang seemed to be asleep, and there was no sound for a long time.

"The one on the opposite side is Nan Di?" He suddenly said again.

"Yes." Yuan Xiao was not at all surprised that Zhan Yang would find out that he was being watched.

"What does he want to do?"

"Catch you and kill me by the way."

Yuan Xiao spoke lightly, the tone was as flat as talking about what to have for dinner.

Zhan Yang's reaction was also very flat, he was silent for a while, and said, "Why didn't he do it?"

"Because there is no evidence." Yuan Xiao replied.

Zhan Yang frowned slightly, and finally opened his eyes, maintaining the posture of leaning on Yuan Xiao's chest, looking at Yuan Xiao who was looking down at him: "What I'm asking is, why didn't he kill you?"

Zhan Yang's tone was as cold as ever, but it was not hard for Yuan Xiao to see the anxiety in his eyes and tone.

Someone on the opposite side is staring at him all the time, and the other party's purpose is very clear, which is to put Yuan Xiao to death, Zhan Yang has no choice but to be anxious.

However, he did not act rashly, because Zhan Yang believed that Yuan Xiao had already noticed that there must be a reason for his inaction.

"Because he's waiting!" Yuan Xiao felt an unbelievable warmth in his heart, "Once the killing order is issued, the number of people being hunted down will increase if the target is not killed within a week. But so far, there is only Nan Di alone."

Zhan Yang's brows tightened again, "Do you doubt the authenticity of the killing order?"

"No." Yuan Xiao chuckled, and slowly hugged Zhan Yang tightly, "I made the killing order myself."

After speaking, he kept smiling, watching Zhan Yang's face change suddenly, and then the person in his arms began to struggle.

"Okay, you can't beat me, don't waste your energy." Yuan Xiao smiled and tightened his arms.

He was right, Zhan Yang lost the opportunity and was trapped in Yuan Xiao's arms, it was impossible to beat him.

Seeing Zhan Yang's eyes that had become bottomless, Yuan Xiao suddenly remembered that in the past, as long as Zhan Yang showed such an expression, he, including himself, would feel a lot of pressure.

--Zhan Yang is so good at fighting, it doesn't feel good to be beaten up by him!

But now, things are different, Yuan Xiao doesn't want to deny that he loves Zhan Yang very much.

Zhan Yang, who was originally full of anger, saw Yuan Xiao's suddenly strange expression, gave him a sideways glance, and said coldly: "Hold those disgusting words of yours, I don't want to hear them."

Yuan Xiao laughed, lowered his head and kissed him on the lips, "I just feel lucky to fall in love with a strong man."

"Huh." Zhan Yang snorted coldly, didn't say anything else, but became quiet again.

Yuan Xiao knows that Zhan Yang is very tired going to the hospital for training every day, and he also enjoys the rare dependence of Zhan Yang.

He just hugged Zhan Yang until he fell asleep again.

The butler came over with a blanket, covered Zhan Yang, and asked Yuan Xiao softly, "Mr. Yuan, do you want to send Mr. Zhan back to his room?"

Yuan Xiao shook his head and signaled the housekeeper to put the strawberry cake on the table into the refrigerator before leaving.

The butler followed his line of sight to see the exquisitely packaged cake, was taken aback for a moment, and turned back to look at Yuan Xiao with a complicated expression.

Yuan Xiao smiled silently at him, but the housekeeper laughed, shook his head, and put the cake, which was obviously made for the little girl, into the refrigerator.

This time Zhan Yang didn't sleep for a long time, he woke up again and found himself still lying in Yuan Xiao's arms, he couldn't help feeling a little awkward.

Yuan Xiao saw him wake up, supported him by the back of his head, and asked, "Are you hungry?"

"No." Zhan Yang hesitated to speak, and finally cast aside his eyes, and said, "Just put me on the sofa from now on."

People who are used to facing everything with a tough attitude will always be at a loss when they encounter tenderness for the first time.

Zhan Yang knew that Yuan Xiao cared about him, and that he liked him very much, but he didn't know how to express it, for fear that he would disappoint the relationship between the two of them by opening his mouth with harsh words.

However, he just met Yuan Xiao, a scoundrel who absolutely slapped his nose on the face.

"Ouch, my hands are numb!" Yuan Xiao collapsed on the sofa with his hands covered.

Zhan Yang frowned, and opened his mouth to ask the housekeeper to handle it, but seeing Yuan Xiao's side face, he felt that this matter should be done by himself.

"Bring it to me to see." Zhan Yang said.

Yuan Xiao immediately straightened up and passed his hand over.

Zhan Yang paused, rolled up Yuan Xiao's sleeves, and squeezed his forearm as gently as possible.

Yuan Xiao looked at Zhan Yang who was seriously massaging him, couldn't help laughing, hooked Zhan Yang's neck, and rubbed his soft hair, "So good! Butler, bring the strawberry cake!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his ribs hurt and he almost lost his breath.

Zhan Yang grabbed his wrist with his right hand, twisted it in the opposite direction, and quickly escaped from his grasp.

Yuan Xiao rubbed his aching wrist, smiled at Zhan Yang's disheveled hair, "What happened just now, you look disheveled!"

Zhan Yang pulled his hair a few times angrily, his ears were flushed red from anger or shame.

Yuan Xiao had never seen Zhan Yang in such a state of embarrassment before, and thought it was very funny, he jumped on him with all his teeth and claws, and shouted, "Let me see, Zhan Yang, let's take a photo!"

He excitedly took out his mobile phone, but Zhan Yang had already left. Looking at his hurried steps, it seemed that there was a scourge behind him.

The butler stared dumbfounded at the two people who were fighting in the living room, but forgot to pass the cake to Yuan Xiao.

"Thank you, butler!" Yuan Xiao took the cake in his hand, kissed the butler on the forehead, hummed a little tune and followed Zhan Yang's footsteps to the study.

The housekeeper froze in place, wondering if he was hallucinating, he actually saw Zhan Yang, who was never smiling, playing around in the living room like a child...

Yuan Xiao didn't think too much, he followed Zhan Yang to the study room, turned off the computer screen that had just been turned on, opened the package, took out the cake, and put it on Zhan Yang's desk.

"I promised to bring you strawberry shortcake."

The sweet scent instantly filled Zhan Yang's sense of smell, he stared blankly at the little cake topped with bright red strawberries, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

"How did you know that I like this?" Zhan Yang had to despise Yuan Xiao's aesthetics from the bottom of his heart.

"If so what do you like?"

"I like it..." Zhan Yang stopped the car in time, glanced at Yuan Xiao who was smiling triumphantly, and swallowed the second half of the sentence.

Seeing that he didn't take the bait, Yuan Xiao exaggeratedly sighed: "It's a pity, I almost got caught."

Seeing him looking downcast, Zhan Yang wished he could roll his eyes.

"You bought a cake when you met?" Zhan Yang asked calmly, pushing the cake closer.

Yuan Xiao graciously sat down on Zhan Yang's seat, looked at his fingers, "talked about other things." He felt that Zhan Yang's next question was not what he expected.

Sure enough, Zhan Yang's expression turned cold, and he asked, "You said you made the killing order yourself, what's going on?"

"Ah..." Yuan Xiao made a meaningless exclamation, and Zhan Yang could tell from his expression that the next words were probably deceitful.

"I don't want to hear your stories!"

Yuan Xiao's expression froze, and he smiled awkwardly: "Then tell the truth, don't be angry."

Zhan Yang looked at him without nodding or shaking his head.

"The thing is like this..." Yuan Xiao started, seeing Zhan Yang's sharp eyes, his tone changed, and he said solemnly, "I used Chen Siyan's privilege to issue a hunting order."

"why?"

"Of course it's because of love!" Yuan Xiaochao Zhanyang smirked, "Are you very moved?"

"...Idiot!" Zhan Yang was silent for a while, holding back such a word.

"Hey! Zhan Yang swears foul language!" Yuan Xiao laughed sarcastically, "It's pretty nice, how about another one?"

Zhan Yang patted the table seriously, and said in a deep voice, "Don't interrupt!"

"Oh." Yuan Xiao shrunk his shoulders a little aggrieved and pretended to be pitiful.

Zhan Yang was once again lost his temper by this "shameless" bastard. He paused for a moment, then he let out a soft breath, "Is there no other way to get rid of them?"

"Yes, resign." Yuan Xiao's eyes were very sincere, "but Chen Siyan did not approve."

Zhan Yang stared at his pretending serious expression for a while, then smiled without straining.

Seeing him smile, Yuan Xiao immediately revealed his true colors, "Brother Zhan, don't be angry with me in the future, I'm quite scared."

No wonder he would be afraid!Zhan Yang slandered.

"Are you telling the truth this time?" Zhan Yang looked at Yuan Xiao suspiciously.

"I never tell lies!"

Zhan Yang was silent for a moment, and finally shook his head: "You do this..."

"Too impulsive!" Yuan Xiao accepted the words, then stood up, squeezed Zhan Yang's chin, and kissed him, "I know, but not everything can wait."
