When the Wild Beast is Trapped in the Nightmare Cycle (BL)

Jin Jiuchi was positively amused when he saw Nian gawking at him with a dazed look on his face.

He had the urge to stuff his finger into the jade doll's pretty little mouth to see what it would feel like, but something told him that Nian would not talk to him anymore if he did that. As such, Jin Jiuchi forcefully restrained himself from doing so... for the time being.

What to do? Patience was not really his forte.

"Earth to Nian'er. Why are you looking at me like this?" He waved his hand in front of Nian's face to draw his attention. Did he not understand what Jin Jiuchi was talking about? Otherwise why didn't he give any reaction whatsoever to indicate it? "Don't you get it? I'm sure you have it too, right? It's the thing hanging between your legs..." In the spirit of sharing wisdom and knowledge, Jin Jiuchi tugged the jade doll's wrist forward and pressed it to his crotch.

Nian only had a split second to register the firm and scorching thickness against his palm before he abruptly snapped back to his senses and yanked his hand back. His face exploded in bright crimson as he stuttered out, "Y–Y–You..." he could not, for the love of God, continue his sentence after that.

This infuriatingly attractive weirdo, he... he was not hard, right? So how could it be so... huge...

Jin Jiuchi tilted his head curiously as he observed Nian's reaction, still oblivious of the turbulence he had caused to the other person's heart. "Look at you..." he crooned softly as he reached out to brush his fingers on the jade doll's flushed cheeks. "You are getting so red. How striking. Silver, purple, red..." his silver eyes were shining in awe and appreciation for the beauty in front of him. "Your smell too. Hmm, it becomes a little sweeter..."

Alas, before Jin Jiuchi could lean in to take another whiff of the sweet fragrance, Nian abruptly jerked himself away from Jin Jiuchi's arms and rolled to his feet, glaring – except the killing intent he radiated this time was greatly impacted by the watery sheen in his purple eyes. "You damned pervert...! If not because we are going to be in the same boat for the next six days, I would have killed you right this instant!!"

It was not the first time Jin Jiuchi had sensed killing intent from Nian and thus, he immediately threw it to the back of his mind. Instead, he focused on the first half of the sentence. "We're in the same boat?" He surged forward and placed his face right in front of Nian, demanding excitedly. "Nian'er has accepted me as his big brother?!"

"Big brother, your ass!" Nian angrily shoved his face away. Why did he feel like dealing with an overexcited husky?! No, this was no mere husky, but a goddamn crazy wolf! "And I've told you to stop calling me that!"

Jin Jiuchi did not take the jade doll's protest to heart at all. He let out a deep laughter, almost giddy in joy. "Okay, Nian'er! I will definitely become the best big brother for you! Here, try calling me Gege~"

"You—!"

After tussling back and forth for a while, the jade doll quickly became frustrated and decided that he was going to ignore Jin Jiuchi for the rest of the night, much to Jin Jiuchi's sadness.

How could Nian be so bad-tempered?! Sulking, Jin Jiuchi watched as the jade doll turned his attention to the striking crimson marital bed, little creases forming between his beautiful brows as he pondered on something. Before Jin Jiuchi could open his mouth and ask about it, Nian stepped forward and yanked the sheets off the bed in a swoop.

Jin Jiuchi blinked, surprised. "Nian'er, what are you doing...?"

Nian staggered back a step when the sheets almost engulfed his entire body. Unable to watch it any longer, Jin Jiuchi stepped forward and easily took the sheets from him. "Where should I put this?"

The jade doll stared at him for one full second before pointing at the chair in the room.

Jin Jiuchi let out a hum and dumped the wrinkled sheets unceremoniously on the chair. "Is it really okay to take this off?" he asked worriedly. What if the bride dropped by and saw that they had messed with her marital bed?

"Or else? Do you want to sleep on it?" Nian sneered, too lazy to explain his hypothesis to the man. Either way, it was not like this weirdo would understand it.

"What's wrong with sleeping on it for a night..." Jin Jiuchi murmured under his breath, confused. Wouldn't the problem be solved if they went to the landlady tomorrow and asked for a room change? Surely she wouldn't allow them to stay in the bridal room, right? Unless there were no more empty rooms...

Jin Jiuchi was caught off guard once again when Nian made a move to pick up the bridal shoes. "Didn't you tell me not to touch it earlier??" He exclaimed, utterly baffled.

Alas, it seemed like Nian was staying true to his words and steadfastly ignored Jin Jiuchi's presence, not without sneering. Jin Jiuchi strongly suspected that the jade doll was cursing him in his mind, but he couldn't do anything about it because he had no evidence.

Nian walked around the room in search of a place to put the bridal shoes. In the end, he crouched down in front of the nightstand and placed the shoes into the drawer. Jin Jiuchi tilted his head curiously. Why would he put it there— oh, he got his answer the next second when Nian locked the drawer, pulled out the key and pocketed it.

Next, Nian walked to the water basin on the table and washed his hands on it. He also splashed some water on his face. Jin Jiuchi sidled up to him and tugged on his sleeve, sulking. "Are you really going to ignore me for the rest of the night?" When he saw that Nian did not intend to answer him, Jin Jiuchi became more unhappy and continued to pester him, "Why is Nian angry? I really don't understand. Is it because of the lie I told Madam Liu? I know that lying is bad, but I don't want to get chased out..."

Nian was utterly speechless when he heard this. Until the end, this person was perfectly clueless on the uncommon things he had said and done. Not only was he ridiculous and unreasonable, he was childish too. Nian could almost see a pair of folded ears on top of Jin Jiuchi's head, looking both miserable and pitiful.

'But this weirdo is really so damn handsome,' he clicked his tongue in displeasure. 'And his body...'

He had noticed it when he pinned Jin Jiuchi to the window. This man's body was completely packed with solid muscles and no excess fat. He had a towering height, long and powerful limbs, sharp features that exuded aggression and a mess of silken black hair that was effortlessly beautiful. Place him in the crowd and he would surely become the center of attention.

Who could stay angry for long when such a gorgeous man was appealing to them?

Though the said man turned out to be a huge weirdo and a pervert...

Nian let out a heavy sigh, feeling an incoming headache for the next six days he was going to spend with this man.
