HMH Chapter 9

Zi Li stood cautiously before a sliding door.

That guy is inside! What does he want from me now? Even though these days its as if he didn’t give a shit about me!

“Since you’re already here, why are you still standing there?” That man’s voice suddenly echoed from inside the room.

Zi Li took a deep breath then walked in as told.

There was a fragrant sandalwood scent wafting inside. In the center of the room is a public bath that looks like a lake shore encircled by a long drawn curtain and shrouded in a thick misty fog. Some of the misty fog seeps through the cotton curtains and spiraling upwards until it diffuses, creating a dreamy illusion!

“Come here!” Hong Xu’s languid voice in this ambiguously unpredictable situation carries a deadly force. It reminded Ling Xia of an evil serpent medusa.

Its as if he was being lured while in trance, Zi Li walks over to that mysterious man. Pass the curtains is indeed a huge public bath with four corners. In every corners, there is an open water faucet pouring out a steady stream of hot water to maintain the reservior of the bath. Hong Xu was leaning on the bath’s wall with his eyes closed, the crown on his head that was always there has been taken off. He lazily soaks in the water, his limbs  spread out, and he was letting his legs float along the smooth waves like a water plant. His strong fine arms, although casually hanging on the ledge of the pool, but when it moves, the rippling muscles was as powerful and bold as eagle’s talons. Droplets of water dribbles down his wheat-colored chest, emmitting a tantalizing seduction in every breath he takes. As his eyes traveled down, Zi Li saw Hong Xu’s abdominal muscles. It’s perfectly smooth lines made Zi Li jealous. This man doesn’t make any effort and yet his body and looks doesn’t have flaws even though he’s a spawn of satan. When Zi Li’s eyes looked further down, he was very disappointed to see the view obscured by the fog.

“Haven’t seen enough?” A certain someone asked with his lazy voice.

Zi Li came into a realization, his face immediately turned red.

I was actually peeping at this perverted emperor! And he thinks I like doing that! It’s a disaster! Am I turning into a pervert as well?

“Come here and wash Our back.” Hong Xu ordered again.

Zi Li remembered that this man not only has the looks of a devil, he also has the temperament of one. Zi Li listened to his order and walked over. He unwillingly rolled his sleeves with a stoic expression, and picked up the towel on the side to scrub Hong Xu’s back. Upon looking, he can’t help but comment: “How can I scrub your back if your leaning back on the pool?”

Hong Xu crinkled his brows, then he sat up straight.

Zi Li leaned forward to wet the towel on the pool. But he wasn’t mindful, because the towel fell into the water. He secretly observed Hong Xu who was waiting for his back to be wiped in the corner of his eyes while looking for the towel that he cannot find. In the end, he summon up the courage to poke Hong Xu’s back: “That, may I bother you to fish up the towel near you?”

Hong Xu’s eyes twinkled upon realizing. He turned his head towards Zi Li and gave him an innocent look. After a while he asked: “Are you doing it on purpose?”

“It’s because I wasn’t paying attention!” Zi Li shouted in defense.

What’s with this emperor’s character! He had such a noble disposition yet his personality is disgusting!

However, being stared at with that piercing gaze of Hong Xu that was enough to instill pure fear into people, Zi Li backs down for a bit. He grumbled quietly while the corner of his mouth is twitching: “I said it’s because I’m not paying attention!”

*splash*

Zi Li coughs out water and wipes his soaking face. He shouted furiously: “You did that on purpose.”

“Do you have complaints?”

“N-no!”

“If there’s none then come here and wash Our back.”

Zi Li was left with no choice but to follow orders. After a while that he was putting his back in scrubbing, he suddenly heard the emperor order him again: “You’re dirtying the water. Take your clothes off.”

“You choose, you take it off yourself, or We take it off for you.”

“——I, I don’t want to choose either one!”

Hong Xu’s eyes narrowed dangerously: “If you don’t want to choose, then We will pick a choice for you. What? Want to run away? You’re free to try.”

“Ah, no, no! I’ll take it off, can’t I take it off myself?”

Zi Li glanced at him with a frightened expression. He loosened his belt, took of his damp clothes, and then his shoes while treading into the water——

The corner of Hong Xu’s mouth twitches. He keenly emphasized: “I(Zhen) am not a wolf, why are you like a defensive bunny?”

“That’s absurd! Uhh, I mean, I didn’t say anything!”

“Come here.”

Zi Li walked over like a sluggish ostrich, but he didn’t dare to get much closer. All of a sudden, his body was pulled into the perverted emperor’s arms like a magnet attraction that cannot be controlled. His cheeks plastered to Hong Xu’s collarbone, his arms bracing on his chest, and his stomach sticking on his lower waist——

Hong Xu locked his arm on Zi Li’s waist. Zi Li raised his head in alarm only to discover that the other man is staring at him with a devilish look written all over his face.

“You——Nn!”

Hong Xu ruthlessly captured his lips, forcibly opening and invading it with his tongue like a tyrant, vigorously sweeping across the soft parts of his mouth. He twirls it to the other’s evading tongue and sucks on it with great strength until Zi Li rolls his eyes and give up.

Zi Li almost lost his breath trying to endure the kisses. He was flustered and discomforted: “You liar, you just said you’re not a wolf. Hey, let go of me.”

Hong Xu’s kisses trailed down to his tender neck. While he was sucking Zi Li’s delicate collarbone, he said in excuse: “We are not a wolf, originally.”

“You——“He could clearly sense in his abdomen pressing closely on Hong Xu’s lower part that it was beginning to react.

Tha-that thing musn’t come out at all cost, or it will definitely be a catastrophe!

“Xiao Jin Yu, are you aware? Every time that you are afraid, you yell at Us, your majesty.” Hong Xu didn’t lift his head. He was holding firmly at Zi Li’s flailing waist with one hand, and the other slipped into the water and caresses his thighs. That part of Zi Li covered behind his legs is slowly starting to react and stand up. Hong Xu’s red hot lips continued downwards, until it reaches those pair of brightly colored cherries ripe for the taking.

“Uhn.” Zi Li covered his mouth with his hand in panic.

“Feeling good?” Hong Xu wrapped his hand around Zi Li’s erection and looked at Zi Li’s flushed face as he asked.

Why does this pervert always think that every reaction I make means I’m feeling good. It’s over, definitely over for me, I’m done for!

“Feeling good——you wished!” Zi Li pushed him ferociously all of a sudden. He backs off a few steps in the water and silently glared at Hong Xu.

“Huang Xiong? Huang Xiong? They are looking for ya! Are you not done yet?” Hong Qing shouted by the door.

“I’ll let you off for today.” Hong Xu said. He stood up and drape the robe on his body and left without a care——

The exciting part, the escape, is soon to happen! Stay tuned ?
