Life and Death Insurance – CH 059

Chapter 59

Never having heard Xiang Tian speak to him in such a cold tone, Ling Zhengzhong was frightened. He hugged Xiang Tian and began to kiss and nibble to soothe him, from his neck to his cheeks, pecking and kissing until he reached Xiang Tian’s soft lips. Feeling the coolness of those lips, Ling Zhengzhong quickly kissed his trembling lips…

“Ouch…”

A sudden pain shot through his lips, causing Ling Zhengzhong to involuntarily release his embrace of his lover. He touched his aching lower lip and noticed traces of blood on his fingers. He looked at Xiang Tian in astonishment.

“Xiang Tian…”

Knowing Xiang Tian would be angry, he hadn’t expected him to be this angry, even refusing intimacy.

Xiang Tian’s face was pale, his limbs weak, making him unable to muster the strength for a stronger counterattack. He hadn’t expected the drug Yang Yiqing had given him to be so potent, which only fueled his anger. His chest heaved, his breathing heavy. He turned his head away, refusing to look at Ling Zhengzhong, and coldly said, “If you want to do it, then do it quickly. Don’t waste time!”

Only then did he realize Xiang Tian was furious. That distant and impatient tone made Ling Zhengzhong feel both uncomfortable and helpless. His lips throbbed, and his heart began to ache. His previously fiery passion instantly waned.

If he could continue now, there would be a real problem. No matter how much he wanted to embrace Xiang Tian, ​​he wouldn’t force himself on him when the other was unwilling.

Ling Zhengzhong leaned forward and pulled Xiang Tian back into his arms, resting his head on Xiang Tian’s shoulder. He whispered, “Xiang Tian, ​​don’t be angry anymore, okay? I won’t do it again. I won’t do it again, alright?”

Feeling the person in his arms stir, he couldn’t help but smile wryly. “No matter how much I want you, I won’t do anything to upset you. I didn’t expect you to be so angry… I promise you, I’ll never do something like this again!”

Wrapped in the warm embrace, Xiang Tian’s initial anger at being deceived gradually subsided. The tight embrace allowed him to feel Ling Zhengzhong’s rapid heartbeat, and his lover’s remorseful apology successfully extinguished his anger. His heart softened, and he couldn’t help but sigh.

“Zhengzhong, how could you be so foolish? You wanted to hug me; you should have just told me, and I would have agreed no matter what. How could you think of drugging me? Do you know how much I trust you?! Besides, you were just drugged yourself; you should understand how that feels, yet you still did the same thing!”

“I’m sorry…”

Hearing Xiang Tian’s gentle reprimand, Ling Zhengzhong felt even more distressed and mumbled a reply.

Both involved drugging, but the situations were different. He and the little hamster were lovers; this was just a harmless game between lovers, unlike Lin Qiaoya’s situation, which was forced. He originally thought that acting first and reporting later wouldn’t be a problem; at most, he’d apologize afterward, and it would be fine. Who would have thought Xiang Tian’s reaction would be so intense?

“And do you even realize how dangerous your situation is right now? I’m busy helping you find the murderer, and you’re just thinking about romantic things…”

Ling Zhengzhong didn’t even bother apologizing this time. Since Xiang Tian was already furious, the more he said, the more mistakes he’d make. He was even somewhat relieved that Xiang Tian didn’t have the strength to fight; otherwise, he would definitely be beaten up.

This thought made Ling Zhengzhong extremely frustrated. He realized that in his entire life, he was the one who scolded others; he’d never been scolded himself. And being lectured like that, without daring to utter a single word in rebuttal, and he didn’t even think he was that wrong. He was always being suppressed by Xiang Tian; it wouldn’t hurt to suppress him once in a while, right? Who would have thought that this usually gentle little hamster could be so terrifying when angry and scold him so fiercely…?

“Why aren’t you saying anything?” After a long silence, Xiang Tian couldn’t help but ask.

“…”

Dare he speak? It wasn’t like he wanted to get beaten up.

“Zhengzhong!”

Hearing Xiang Tian’s tone turn stern, Ling Zhengzhong obediently raised his head.

Seeing the aggrieved face looking at him, Xiang Tian sighed helplessly. This guy, despite his strong appearance, could be quite childish at times.

He asked softly, “You aren’t talking, you aren’t making a move. Did you drug me just to leave me here to dry?”

“…”

Facing the bewildered Ling Zhengzhong, Xiang Tian’s initial anger completely softened. He scolded softly, “I don’t know where that sissy Yang Yiqing got such a potent drug. Idiot, I can’t move now. Are you unable to move either? Didn’t you really want to do it? Why don’t you carry me to bed?”

Ling Zhengzhong mumbled, “I don’t want to be beaten into a pig’s head later…”

“Then you still dared to drug me?!”

“I thought I could do it without anyone noticing, but who knew you’d see through it so quickly and then bite me so violently…”

His lover’s aggrieved look finally made Xiang Tian laugh.

“I’m sorry, I went too far just now. No matter what, I shouldn’t have gotten so angry. Does it still hurt?”

“Of course it hurts, but maybe a kiss would ease the pain.”

Seeing that Xiang Tian had calmed down, the latter immediately pressed his advantage.

“Then why aren’t you carrying me to bed? Do you want to stay here…”

Before Xiang Tian could finish speaking, Ling Zhengzhong quickly swept him into his arms and carried him straight to the bedroom on the second floor.

This incident made Ling Zhengzhong fully realize that beneath the little hamster’s gentle and calm exterior lay a violent side. If you touched his sore spot, you’d definitely get a severe beating. Luckily, he escaped unscathed today…

Just then, Xiang Tian’s phone on the table suddenly vibrated, but neither of the two people who had already gone upstairs noticed.
