When Jeong Taeui yelled those words, Ilay burst out laughing. The moment that smile faded
from his lips, his cold, dark eyes fell on Jeong Taeui.
"With people like him, no matter how I try to persuade him to let you go, he won't let you
go," Ilay said, looking at him. Faced with that frightening gaze, Jeong Taeui could only blink
and stare at Ilay with a blank mind, confused by those words.
He frowned, looking at Ilay in bewilderment, trying to say something but not knowing what
to say.
What was it? Jeong Taeui had thought he had a lot to say to him, but he didn't know which to
say first.
"Um..."
No matter where he went or what he did, even if that guy didn't intend to let him go, it was
not something he could decide... Should he start by saying that?
"But...."
Or did Ilay think someone without any mental issues like him would let him go smoothly?
Should he start with that?
"Furthermore...."
Or the more important thing, how could Ilay shamelessly to imply he had no mental
issues... Should he start with this?
Those thoughts swirled in Jeong Taeui's mind. But all he could say was the first word of each
sentence. In the end, he gave up, lowered his head, sighed, and rubbed his forehead, speaking
in a weary voice.
"I didn't expect you to have a side like this...Indeed.... I still can't understand you."
Perhaps his life wouldn't end here soon.
Suddenly, a wave of exhaustion washed over him, making him want to lie down right there.
The exhaustion came from both his body and mind.
Today was a tough day. He had to absorb too much information that he didn't want to know,
hear, or see.
He just wanted to end today like this, soak in a hot bath, then crawl into bed and sleep
without thinking.
Alright, let's go back to the room. Jeong Taeui thought as he lifted his heavy eyelids.His gaze met Ilay's, who was watching him.
He knew Ilay was sitting there, but facing the gaze that hadn't left him for a second since Ilay
walked into this room made Jeong Taeui's shoulders tense involuntarily.
Those beautiful hands were lightly tapping on the bedside table. He couldn't fathom what Ilay
was thinking as he quietly watched him with emotions he couldn't understand.
"Ilay...."
The moment Jeong Taeui called his name.
Ilay's foot slowly traced a circle on his foot, then lifted and brushed against his ankle and
calf. Little by little.
"Ego.... Alright, I've roughly said everything I need to say, so now listen carefully."
His gentle tone, whispering into his ear, made Jeong Taeui tense up despite its lightness.
Jeong Taeui frowned. Oh, he had forgotten.
"Why are you here? huh? Jeong Taeil
'A month before you return, I will leave first'
you said
that. And sure enough, you left Berlin as you said."
"Before that, you promised to stay home, but in the end, you showed up here."
Ilay added, looking at him with eyes that left Jeong Taeui no way out.
Damn. He stepped on his foot.
Why does he keep stepping on it? Jeong Taeui slowly pulled his foot away from Ilay's.
However, Ilay's fierce foot pressed lightly under his ankle, so Jeong Taeui couldn't do
anything.
"Are you planning to run away?"
Ilay asked. However, even as he asked, it seemed he didn't truly believe that. His toes tapped
lightly on the top of Jeong Taeui's foot.
Of course, he had no intention of running away. But when Ilay asked him that, he almost
wanted to admit it right away..... However, if he did, he wasn't sure he could handle the
consequences, so Jeong Taeui gave the best answer he could.
"No..... I heard you were here, so I followed you."
"..."
Jeong Taeui shamelessly looked up at Ilay, staring at him without blinking. His expression
was very serious.
Ilay stared at him for a moment, then gave a highly unreasonable smile."Followed me here?"
"Of course."
"Then I must have misheard. Two days ago, my brother called and said he was very
distressed because Christ took a few books from him, so he asked for my help."
Kyle. In the end, you still didn't side with me.
Jeong Taeui silently blamed Kyle for a moment. Although he knew Kyle's lies wouldn't
easily deceive Ilay, he just wanted him to help cover up a bit.
However, if Kyle had already contacted him, it was meaningless to cover up or not.
"If you knew, why did you ask?"
Jeong Taeui muttered gruffly and forcefully pulled his foot away from Ilay's. His foot, which
had been pressing on Jeong Taeui's, gently fell to the floor.
Ilay raised an eyebrow, looking straight at Jeong Taeui.
"..."
After a while of silent, ambiguous staring. Jeong Taeui slowly and stealthily pushed his foot
under Ilay's again.
".....Alright. So I'll consider that I misunderstood my brother's phone call. And since you
even said something as cute as you came here for me, I'll consider that too."
"How kind."
Jeong Taeui said seriously in a dry tone. Though it sounded sarcastic, he genuinely had no
intention of mocking him. After all, it was fine.
Ilay glanced at Jeong Taeui's expression, then faintly smiled with his deep, cold eyes. Jeong
Taeui couldn't understand those deep expressions. It was hard to know what he was thinking
or his mood. However, with such an expression, it was certainly not something happy. He
often wore this face when he was deep in thought about some troublesome issue.
Maybe it was a difficult problem he needed to think through carefully? But what difficult
problem was he facing now?
Jeong Taeui couldn't know. He could only guess based on what Ilay would say next.
"Taeil."
Not long after, Ilay finally spoke. Jeong Taeui didn't respond, only looking at him.
"Go back to Berlin."
That was all he said. No further explanation...Ah ha.
He didn't know the reason, but he could vaguely understand what Ilay left unsaid.
"I've already come here?"
Jeong Taeui pretended not to understand, looking at him questioningly.
However, whether Ilay saw through his pretense or not, he just squinted at him and pressed
harder on his slightly pained foot.
"Don't you want to go back?"
His deep voice echoed above him. Surprisingly, it sounded more genuinely curious rather
than oppressive, forcing him to return. Jeong Taeui looked at him, puzzled.
He didn't dislike going back. He had no reason to stay here and no reason to want to stay. In
Berlin, he was much more comfortable both physically and mentally.
However, he still hadn't found the books for Kyle. This was a rare chance to help Kyle, and if
he could, he wanted to find the books for him.
Moreover...
"..."
Jeong Taeui glanced at Christoph, sleeping behind him. Seeing that, Ilay raised an eyebrow,
looking at him.
"I want to stay a bit longer..... Is there any reason I shouldn't be here?"
Because the sight of the boy lying silently on the bed was very unsettling.
He couldn't do anything. But the boy's condition might be so dangerous that he couldn't leave
now.
"Does Christoph worry you?"
Ilay's voice echoed in his ear.
Jeong Taeui fell silent for a moment.
They had been sitting a certain distance apart, their knees and feet touching. But when he
looked away from Christoph, Ilay had left the bedside table and was right in front of Jeong
Taeui. He directly stepped on Jeong Taeui's foot, putting his weight on his toes.
"Taeil. Stop here. Don't go any further."
That voice gently brushed against his ear.He had thought Ilay would soon lift his foot off his, but the moment that weight disappeared,
his whole body fell onto the bed.
"Hey wait..... wait.... stop."
Ilay pushed Jeong Taeui onto the bed and lay on top of him. Now his whole body weight was
pressing down on him. Jeong Taeui, pushed down in a moment of carelessness, could only
look to the side in confusion. Right beside him, less than an arm's length away, Christoph lay
there.
"Hey, hey, why here? Please go somewhere else."
Suddenly, he remembered Johan's words:
"Grilled pine mushrooms are delicious; you can
eat them anytime, anywhere."
Jeong Taeui quickly dismissed the thought, whispering as cold sweat formed.
"My room is right next door.... Hey."
"But because it's Christ, I let it be."
Ilay ignored Jeong Taeui's words. He spoke as he slowly licked from his ear to his cheek,
then suddenly grabbed Jeong Taeui's lower body.
Jeong Taeui could only take a deep breath.
Although Ilay grabbed it through his pants, his large hand accurately grasped Jeong Taeui's
member and gently pressed down.
He looked down at him from a very close distance, close enough that their noses occasionally
touched. Contrary to the slow movements of his hand below, which had begun to heat up,
Ilay calmly spoke.
"Taeil. I know the face you like isn't this sculpted face, so I didn't say anything even when
you followed closely and sided with him."
"Yes, and because he has severe contact phobia."
Ilay said, then licked and sucked hard on Taeui's lips. Ilay sucked so hard that his lower lip
hurt for a moment. But the real problem was below.
His member ached under Ilay's hand, which was squeezing his groin. And it wasn't just the
pain. Even when trying to push him away, Ilay didn't budge at all, despite knowing it was
involuntary. On the contrary, it felt as if he was breathing harder.
This was a big problem.
Jeong Taeui glanced to the side. Even though the chloroform would prevent Christoph from
waking up quickly, the fact that another person was lying next to him was an unchangeable
reality."So stop here, don't try to go any further."
Ilay said in a low voice, then sucked his lips hard again. It was as if he wanted to test which
part would be more stimulated, the upper or the lower.
He roughly squeezed Jeong Taeui's member and closely observed every expression he made.
Jeong Taeui could feel the intense gaze and frowned, turning his head away.
