GTAS Arc. 2 Ch. 7

Ji Yichen could sense the teasing tone in Ji Linchen’s words. Although Ji Linchen’s words were full of teasing, the deep eyes on his handsome face, which seemed to be amplified infinitely in front of Ji Yichen, were clear and serious, without a hint of jest…

Feeling a bit uneasy, Ji Yichen cleared his throat and said, “J-Ji Linchen, isn’t this inappropriate? After all, if Dr. Lin finds out, he’ll be angry…”

Ji Linchen raised an eyebrow at the remark. Why did this little guy always mention Lin Huai? Could it be that he had taken a fancy to that clueless fellow, Lin Huai?!

For a moment, alarm bells rang in Ji Linchen’s mind. Subconsciously, he tightened his hold on Ji Yichen even more, his voice low, “Hmm? What if Lin Huai finds out?”

Ji Yichen wrinkled his nose and looked at the man in front of him, thinking, ‘Seriously, is Lin Huai unable to satisfy Ji Linchen, even though he’s so capable?! What a joke!’

He tried to move away from Ji Linchen’s legs, but to no avail.

In the end, Ji Yichen gave up struggling and began to unbutton his shirt, pretending to be heroic as he cleared his throat and said, “Since Young Master Ji wants to deceive his old lover and play at clandestine affairs, I’ve resisted, but since I can’t resist you, come on.”

Initially taken aback by Ji Yichen’s sudden action, Ji Linchen was stunned for a moment. But now, hearing these words, Ji Linchen regained his composure and blushed instantly at the mention of Lin Huai.

Old lover? Clandestine affairs [1] ? He, he was a proper old, vir…gin… 

As Ji Yichen continued to unbutton his shirt, Ji Linchen suddenly got up from him and grabbed his little hand, pulling him up from the sofa. Then, under Ji Yichen’s puzzled gaze, Ji Linchen extended his knobby fingers and began buttoning Ji Yichen’s shirt one by one, speaking earnestly.

“Between Lin Huai and me, it’s not what you think. Lin Huai likes women…”

Ji Linchen’s intention was to tell Ji Yichen not to have any illusions about Lin Huai, that Lin Huai was interested in women, not men. But in Ji Yichen’s ears, this statement took on a different meaning — that because Lin Huai liked women, Ji Linchen’s advances were in vain.

“Ah, another story of deep, unrequited love!”

Ji Yichen thought to himself, a hint of pity appearing in his beautiful phoenix eyes. He reached out and stroked Ji Linchen’s slightly messy hair, saying in a soft voice, “Ah, I see. Well, Young Master Ji, don’t be too sad. There are plenty of fish in the sea, why waste your time on one person? I believe that with your abilities, you can find someone better.”

Ji Linchen was taken aback. He let Ji Yichen stroke his hair, wondering how this little brat had misunderstood his meaning again. Then he sighed in his heart. “Never mind,” he thought. “As long as I let this little brat know that Lin Huai doesn’t like men, I’ll break his heart and then we’ll talk…”

Seeing Ji Linchen standing there in silence, Ji Yichen stood up with a feigned ease. Then, bending his beautiful phoenix eyes, he changed the subject. “Young Master Ji, are you hungry? I brought you lunch~”

Ji Linchen came back to his senses and shook his head. More than lunch, he wanted to devour the little man who was smiling so brightly in front of him. Somehow, this little brat had taken over all of his attention. For example, just now when he and Lin Huai were discussing military matters, he kept getting lost in thought about this little brat, to the point where Lin Huai even asked him if he was sick…

Just then, Ji Linchen’s stomach growled loudly, causing a blush to spread across his fair, slightly tanned face. For a moment, the air between the two of them was awkward.

Ji Yichen heard the growl and burst out laughing. “Young Master Ji, your stomach is more honest than your mouth~ I think I’ll bring the food in. Man is iron, rice is steel, if you don’t eat, you’ll get hungry. Don’t be stubborn!”

Without waiting for Ji Linchen to respond, he turned and opened the door.

Ji Linchen widened his deep eyes and reached out to call Ji Yichen back, but then he thought about the lunch that this little brat had specially prepared for him. He pursed his thin lips, unable to bring himself to say the words “no more.”

Just as Ji Yichen was about to scoop up a spoonful of soup and rice porridge with his spoon and feed it to Ji Linchen himself, Ji Linchen suddenly felt grateful that he hadn’t said “no more”. He was unexpectedly surprised and delighted to be treated so well…

After all, just last night, this little brat had said he was going to bite off his ear!

Just as the two of them were getting intimate at the desk in the room, the door of the study was suddenly flung open. The door hit the wall, making a loud “bang!”

“Brother, you want me to go! I just want to go to the army…” The person who entered the room hadn’t even finished speaking when they saw the two people in the room freeze at the door.

Ji Yichen was sitting at the desk with his back to the door, and Ji Linchen was sitting in the chair behind the desk facing the door. When Ji Yichen turned his head, he saw that it was the protagonist, Ji Yanzhi, who had come in. However, Ji Yanzhi’s appearance was quite disheveled. His head was wrapped in layers of white gauze, and his once high nose was now swollen and red like a garlic nose, making Ji Yanzhi’s once handsome face unrecognizable. He was not the least bit handsome.

“What are you guys doing, bro?” Ji Yanzhi’s first question after coming back to his senses wasn’t about why Ji Yichen was in his elder brother’s study but rather why Ji Yichen and his elder brother were behaving so intimately.

【Ding! Congratulations, Host. Scum Abuse Value increased by 30. Please continue to work hard, Host.  】

At this moment, the system prompt suddenly sounded in Ji Yichen’s mind. Ji Yichen raised an eyebrow. Could it be that Ji Yanzhi was a brother complex, unable to stand seeing others being so close to his brother? To confirm his thoughts, Ji Yichen turned back and handed the spoon to Ji Linchen’s mouth again, humming softly, “Master Ji, why don’t you take a bite first? I’ve cooled it down for you~”

Ji Linchen had intended to respond to his younger brother’s words first, but upon hearing Ji Yichen’s coquettish tone, he raised the corner of his mouth and drank the porridge from the spoon, realizing it indeed tasted different from ordinary porridge! It was delicious!

“Well, don’t you dislike sharp-tongued little things like this? Perfect, it suits my taste. I’ll take it.” Ji Linchen took the handkerchief handed over by Ji Yichen to wipe his mouth, then said calmly.

Seeing Ji Yanzhi’s bewildered expression at the door, Ji Yichen raised his eyebrows, and his deep eyes showed a hint of dissatisfaction. He tossed the handkerchief onto the table and asked in a low voice, “What? Can’t I have it?”

Ji Yanzhi snapped out of his thoughts at Ji Linchen’s words, subconsciously shaking his head. Then he looked at Ji Yichen, who was sitting with his back to him at the table, and said, “No, it’s just that this little thing is too wild. I’m afraid he’ll hurt you, Brother. How about this? I’ve raised many obedient ones. Brother, why don’t you go take a look? They’re definitely better than this little thing by a hundred times…”

“No need. I’ve been fighting battles all year round, and I’ve seen all kinds of wild things in the mountains and rivers. I don’t like things that are too obedient.”

As Ji Linchen spoke, he naturally noticed the reluctance in Ji Yanzhi’s eyes. With a glint in his deep eyes, he directly lifted Ji Yichen from the table and let him sit sideways on his lap. He reached out his warm big hand and pinched Ji Yichen’s fair and delicate little face. Seeing Ji Yichen frown uncomfortably, he finally let go with satisfaction, turned to look at Ji Yanzhi, and said in a deep voice, “By the way, I’ve given him a name. Ji Yichen. What do you think?”

Ji Yanzhi was already surprised to see Ji Yichen trying to please Ji Linchen like this. Now, hearing Ji Linchen’s words, he was even more stunned.

The name Ji Yichen might not raise any issues for ordinary people, but only Ji Linchen and Ji Yanzhi, who had the right of inheritance, knew that anyone with the surname Ji had the right to inherit the family property. For example, Ji Feng was given the surname Ji while his father was still alive. Ji Feng now had the right to inherit part of the Ji family property, and it was legal.

Ji Yanzhi had heard about it from Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu said that last night, when Ji Yanzhi wasn’t paying attention, Ji Yichen climbed onto Ji Linchen’s bed. However, Xiao Wu described Ji Yichen as being excessively pampered, which Ji Yanzhi naturally didn’t believe. He thought it was just his pets competing for favor.

Clearly, last night when Ji Yanzhi brought Ji Yichen back, Ji Yichen kept saying he loved him. How could he change his tune like this?

But now the facts were laid out before him, forcing him to believe them.

Ji Yichen not only didn’t love him anymore, but he had also slept with his older brother, Ji Linchen, and served him for 28 years of his single life. His older brother, who had only eyes for military discipline and never had any romantic interests, had given Ji Yichen his family name. This was all so unexpected!

Just as Ji Yanzhi was immersed in a moment of extreme shock, Ji Yichen suddenly leaned over and kissed Ji Linchen’s handsome face. Then, he said with a smile in his voice,

“I haven’t thanked you yet for giving me a name, Young Master Ji. This kiss is my thank you!”

As soon as Ji Yichen finished speaking, the system’s voice rang out.
