Saving the Heartthrob Frenemy-Chapter 587: "Come home,"

Qie Xieling couldn’t resist such a temptation. He silently ate his intense gaze focused on his boyfriend. Luo Muchen smiled slightly while saying, "Baby... if you keep looking at me like that I won’t be able to contain myself."

Qie Xieling laughed out loud. Who exactly was provoking who? Without any warning, he reached underneath the table and yanked Luo Muchen’s ankle. Luo Muchen’s chair shook and he was a little startled. Qie Xieling got up and said, "That’s what you get."

Luo Muchen, "..." His heart raced as he watched him walk towards the kitchen with a mischievous glint in his eyes. The morning sun streamed through the ceiling-to-floor windows casting a warm glow on Qie Xieling’s tousled curly hair.

Qie Xieling fearing no consequences continued saying, "That’s what you get for messing with me. You are such a horny bastard."

Luo Muchen crossed his arms on his chest and asked, "What did you say?" with a slight quirk at the corner of his lips.

Qie Xieling’s lips quirked as he glanced at him only for the smile on his face to freeze. The man was staring at him like he was prey. He thought he could wait a little longer but damn, the more he stared at him like this the more he was convinced to change his mind.

He turned his body to face him and repeated himself. "I said Hor...ny bas—," he said pausing in between only for him to shut his mouth when he saw Luo Muchen spring up, his steps quick and light chasing after him.

"Ah! Hahaha, I was wrong," he yelled while he was grabbed from behind. Luo Muchen effortlessly hoisted him up in his arms. Qie Xieling tried to free himself but it was like being clutched by a dragon. He was like a princess being held in his arms after being snatched from a palace. That dragon was not letting go of its loot.

"Baby, put me down. Ah, I was wrong," he begged and Luo Muchen’s scorching hot breath grazed his ear making him shiver all over.

"You have been teasing me on purpose so how can I not respond?" He said before biting Qie Xieling’s ear lobe.

"Ahh! Muchen are you a dog?" he asked while touching his ear. The two of them landed on the bed and an inevitable playful tussle began. "Look look it’s red. Where haven’t you bitten?" he accused and Luo Muchen laughed out loud while straddling him. "Why bother asking when you know you are irresistible? Indulge me for a second."

"You pervert," said Qie Xieling while grabbing a pillow. He was pretty light-handed but Luo Muchen’s hair that he had worked hard to fix in the bathroom was now disheveled. Hearing Qie Xieling’s laughter he couldn’t help but grab a pillow of his own. "Perverts know each other," he declared.

Pillows became weapons, tickles turned into wrestling moves, and the room filled with laughter as the pair got along just like in the past if not better.

Luo Muchen managed to pin him down and lowered his head to kiss his cheek, then his other cheek, and then his forehead. Qie Xieling tilted his head slightly with a beaming smile urging him to kiss his lips but Luo Muchen didn’t kiss him. He just stared at him with a playful gleam in his eyes.

Qie Xieling tried to raise his head and reach his lips but he couldn’t get out of his grasp. Luo Muchen seemed to find this somewhat amusing. He was about to make fun of his sweetheart when the ringing of a cell phone drew their attention.

The cell phone had been buzzing just now but they had ignored the notifications. It seemed the person sending the messages had become impatient.

Luo Muchen loosened his grip on Qie Xieling’s wrists and Qie Xieling sat up.

Luo Muchen handed him the cell phone and when he saw that it was his father he stiffened. He swiped the green button as Luo Muchen sat beside him watching him.

"Come home," he said two words before the call was cut.

Qie Xieling, "..."

The last time his father spoke to him like this it had to do with Luo Muchen and today he spoke to him in that scary voice again and it was again because of Luo Muchen.

Qie Xieling thought after the conversation they had yesterday that his father wouldn’t care about who he was dating but apparently not.

Qie Xieling sighed as he turned to look at Luo Muchen lying beside him. "I might need to hide at your place for a while. My father sounds angry," he said sounding coquettish.

Luo Muchen who wouldn’t mind kidnapping him to a remote island patted his head gently while saying, "We can even elope if you want."

Qie Xieling, "..."

How did hide-out turn into elopement? He poked Luo Muchen’s arm before his cell phone started ringing again. Startled Qie Xieling almost dropped his cell phone.

He was about to complain about his father when he saw the caller ID. Turns out it was his dad.

He picked up the call and heard his dad’s voice come through the phone speaker. Compared to his call with his father, his dad was in a better mood. In an almost coaxing tone, he said, "Don’t mind your father. He woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Can you come home? Your nana has something for you."

In the background, he heard his father saying, "He better come home now. The driver is already downstairs."

Qie Xieling sighed before saying, "On my way." He cut the call and turned around to look at Luo Muchen who was languidly playing with his hair while staring at him with an intense gaze.

"I have to go home," he said as he leaned back to rest his head on Luo Muchen’s shoulder. Luo Muchen stroked his hair lovingly as he said, "I will take you home."

But Qie Xieling shook his head. He would love that but the driver was already downstairs in the underground parking. "The driver is already waiting for me," he said before sighing one more time and getting off the bed.

Luo Muchen was very unwilling. He reached out and grabbed his arm, pulling him back towards him. He looked up at Qie Xieling, his eyes filled with desire and reluctance. He knew that Qie Xieling had to go but he didn’t want their time together to end just yet.

He silently closed the distance between them, his lips meeting Qie Xieling’s in a passionate kiss. The emotions in that kiss were easy to decipher. It expressed his reluctance to let him go, a desire to hold onto the moment just a little longer.

Qie Xieling responded instinctively, his arms wrapping around Luo Muchen as they deepened the kiss.

Just when things were getting heated his cell phone buzzed thrice and Qie Xieling had no choice but to leave. After ten minutes the pair of lovers entered in the elevator hand in hand.

Luo Muchen leaned against the elevator wall while staring at his boyfriend with a look of complaint in his eyes.

"Call me when you get home," he said while gently squeezing Qie Xieling’s hand.

Qie Xieling nodded his head but Luo Muchen wasn’t done. "Let’s video call later tonight when you are free. I will stay up until then."

Qie Xieling couldn’t help but let out a soft chuckle while running his fingers through his hair. "I will video call you as soon as I am free. I promise."

The elevator door opened and Luo Muchen held Qie Xieling by his waist and led him out of the elevator. When they reached the black car parked a few feet over Luo Muchen couldn’t help but pull him into a hug.

In a low muffled voice, he asked, "When can I see you again?"

Qie Xieling clutched his t-shirt while nuzzling up against him. "I will try to see you tomorrow. I will call you."

Luo Muchen turned his head to look Qie Xieling. He couldn’t help but peck his lips before hugging him again. The two of them looked like they were not going to see each other for a year.

After heavily abusing the single dogs in the underground parking for a long time, Luo Muchen opened the car door for him and greeted the driver uncle before he closed the door and waved at Qie Xieling.

He only shifted his gaze away when the car had driven out of the underground parking. His bodyguards standing a few feet back couldn’t help but arch his brow.

Maybe it was his illusion but his young master kind of looked like an abandoned pup waiting for his master to come back. If he had a tail it would be drooping.

"Ugh," exclaimed Luo Muchen under his breath. He had to admit it. He was extremely greedy and wanted Qie Xieling all to himself. After years of keeping his distance, he found that he lacked self-control when he finally got him.

"Is he coming?" asked Nana Qie while scrolling through her tablet in the lounge. Her son and son in law had just walked in thus she had to ask. She had a surprise for her grandson and he had to be home for this.
