Upon hearing Ji Xun say this, Shang Qing gave a helpless smile. "You are my younger brother, why are you thanking me? If you say anything so formal again, I shall be angry."
Ji Xun pressed his lips together and fell silent. His entire body trembled slightly, and he quickly squeezed his eyes shut, gripping the bedsheets tightly to keep himself from showing any signs of distress. It was no fault of his own; it was simply because Shang Qing’s hands were resting on his cool abdomen. The moment those soft, warm hands touched his skin, his mind began to wander. His whole body burned with an agonizing, yet marvelous, sensation.
