The day Jian Ci and Yu Xi returned, they expected to find everyone at home, at least that's what Jian Rui had promised. But when they stepped inside, the house was silent, empty.
Yu Xi frowned, reaching for his communicator. "I will call and ask."
Before he could, Jian Ci slipped behind him, wrapping his arms around Yu Xi's waist. "No, don't," he murmured, pulling him close. "We can spend even more time together, just you and me."
He nuzzled against Yu Xi's neck, his lips brushing the skin before biting lightly at his ear. Yu Xi flinched, trying to move away. "You… haven't you had enough?"
Jian Ci leaned closer, swaying them both gently. "You know I can't get enough of you, my love." His arms tightened around Yu Xi's waist, his voice low and intoxicating.
Just then, the glass doors leading to the patio slid open. A chorus of voices shouted, "Surprise!"
