Chapter 29: Ear Piercing

Qin Xu’s home was of a modern design and looked very simple and clean. There were even warm yellow decorations in the lounge room adding warmth to the home. Quite unexpectedly, it was rather ordinary.

Jiang Yang changed his shoes at the entrance and looked towards the lounge room while secretly breathing a sigh of relief. He then quickly reacted, why is he surprised that it’s ordinary? What did he expect, alien style?

He couldn’t help but laugh at himself.

He turned back and saw Qin Xu staring at him with interest. He asked curiously: “What are you laughing at?”

Jiang Yang licked his lips and smiled awkwardly, “It’s nothing.”

Then he asked: “Where are your parents?”

“Oh, I forgot to tell you,” Qin Xu casually shrugged. “They often work outside and sometimes wouldn’t come home for a few weeks. I’m usually here alone.”

Jiang Yang looked at him with a look of surprise and frowned. He didn’t expect this to be the case.

Qin Xu was used to it and didn’t think much of it. Also, since he is now much older, it could be said that he feels more comfortable being alone. However, seeing the change in Jiang Yang’s eyes, he immediately realised that he could take advantage of it.

He deliberately released a depressed sigh and said glumly: That’s why I suggested for you to come to my place. It’s almost impossible to be exposed. My place is quiet and almost has no signs of people living here. Sometimes I would wake up at night and just find myself surrounded in darkness and silence. It feels like I was abandoned by the whole world and extremely uncomfortable.........”

He said this in a low and dull tone. Looking up, he pursed his lips and revealed a small smile, but his eyes still looked empty and sad. Combined with that smile, it conversely made him look even more lonely and pitiful.

Jiang Yang saw this and couldn’t help but keep silent. He didn’t know what he could do to comfort him. He hesitantly raised his hands and patted him on the shoulder before saying dryly: “It’s okay, I’ll stay with you for the next two days......”

Qin Xu looked down as if he was trying to conceal his grief but, in fact, he was doing his best to hold back his laughter and to hide it from Jiang Yang.

He continued with a low voice: “There’s something that I have always wanted to do and that’s to get my ears pierced but I have no one to accompany me....”

The sad atmosphere stiffened and the hand on his shoulder gradually curled up into a fist. Jiang Yang smiled coldly: “It was all a pretence wasn’t it?”

Qin Xu raised his teary black eyes and innocently asked, “What do you mean a pretence? Everything I said is the truth.”

“But why do I feel that you are just trying to take advantage of my sympathy?”

“Then it’ll have to be about something true for me to make you feel sympathy for me, I didn’t make them up.” Qin Xu raised his chin and looked calm. He walked into a room and then came out with a small box. Handing it over to Jiang Yang he said, “This is the earrings that I have preselected. It will definitely look good when I wear it. Take a look.”

He pushed the opened box in front of him and even if he didn’t want to look, he was forced to. Jiang Yang glanced at the earrings and saw a pair of black irregular geometric shaped earrings with a silver vine-like border wrapping around it. The black stud wasn’t just pure black, it had small glittery spots throughout and looked almost like a starry night sky. It was very unique and dazzling.

“Doesn’t it look good?” Qin Xu excitedly shared what he liked with Jiang Yang. The moment he became excited, he also began speaking a little faster and his eyes brightened with liveliness.

He said: “Actually, I think that earrings will also suit you. Why don’t we get it pierced together? I’ll help choose a nice pair for you.”

“No.” Jiang Yang immediately refused.

Qin Xu originally said this as part of his strategy to convince him. By establishing an even more unacceptable request, the earlier request would seem insignificant in comparison and in turn appear more acceptable. But the moment those words left his mouth, Qin Xu actually thought that it was a pretty good idea. With Jiang Yang’s handsome face, when paired with a pair of earrings, it would definitely be very attractive. He suddenly had the urge to give it a try.

Being stared at so intensely made Jiang Yang feel a little creeped out. Qin Xu soon realised that it was useless for him to staring at Jiang Yang since, after all, he is currently in Jiang Yang’s body and only needed to look at his phone to allow him to visualise how it would look.

Looking at his phone, Qin Xu touched his ears and slowly caressed it. The earlobe is soft and meaty and the and the auricle was pale and beautifully arched. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that it would definitely suit him. He then held up a pair of earrings and compared it assess how it would look.

Seeing that he is sincerely thinking over it, Jiang Yang panicked. Qin Xu had always been someone who is rather impulsive and would do things without much thought or consideration. This can be both good and bad. At least this was what Jiang Yang thought. Seeing him touch his ears like that, Jiang Yang technically shouldn’t feel anything. But perhaps because that body is his, he couldn’t help but vague feel a slight itching sensation at his ears.

Jiang Yang felt extremely troubled. He pulled down his hand and said in a frustrated tone: “Stop touching it. I’m not getting it pierced.”

The earrings fell and flew to the other end of the room. It made a clear and crisp sound the moment it hit the ground.

At this moment, the two were sitting on the sofa. Qin Xu clenched his fist, looked at the earring on the floor before turning back to look at Jiang Yang with a dark expression. He stared at him until Jiang Yang felt his back go cold —— As if he was a prey that had been locked onto.

For a moment, everything went quiet.

Qin Xu didn’t go to pick up the earrings and, instead, he suddenly pushed Jiang Yang down and pressed him onto the sofa before he had the chance to retaliate. He firmly restrained Jiang Yang down and bent his face down to almost an inch of a distance away – almost to the point of kissing.

Qin Xu grabbed him by his shirt collar and, despite the smile on his face, there was no evidence of it in his eyes. He lowered his voice and said in a threatening tone, “Xiao Yang Yang, why are you throwing away my gift for you?”

Jiang Yang’s expression went stiff, “What gift? Isn’t that your earring?”

“Yeah, that’s my favourite pair of earrings. But I just decided that I would give it to you. Tomorrow, I’ll go and get it pieced.” Qin Xu was positioned against the light, casting shadows over his face. It clearly looked like he wasn’t joking.

Jiang Yang moved his lips and for moment almost let slip — I’ll do it! I’ll fucking get it pierced okay? So stop getting strange ideas about my body!

He almost blurted that out and caved in.

Qin Xu sensed his wavering thoughts through his eyes and hooked his lips upwards. He sat up and made the gesture to leave, “Since it’s decided, I’ll go get it pierced.”

His actions were resolute, and it really looked like he was going to leave now and get it done. Jiang Yang instantly reacted by reaching out and holding him back by his hugging onto his waist. Perhaps because they had exchanged bodies, he felt that since it was his own body, it didn’t matter if he did intimate actions like this. It wasn’t like he was violating anyone.

At this moment, the doorknob turned and the crisp clicking of heels could be heard. Someone entered, and a female voice rang out.

The moment Mother Qin returned and looked to the sofa in the lounge room, she saw her son hugging onto a similar aged boy. She asked with a look of confusion: “What are you two doing?”

The two instantly stiffened.
