4.7 He's always been there

A-Xuan's head was down with a frown. Yan Wang looked at him with an amused smile. A-Xuan felt an invisible force pushing him, he tried to resist it, but the next second he was on Yan Wang's lap, his arms circling him tightly in place.

A-Xuan looked at him with squinted eyes. Husband, I don't like that trick of yours, knowing you, you'll abuse it. Yan Wang said: "I don't mind your reason for ending my slumber."

A-Xuan released a breath. Yan Wang smiled and caressed his cheek. His eyes for once weren't cold; they were full of love and affection. A-Xuan was surprised. How could he develop so rapidly intense feelings like that?

Yan Wang understood his confusion. He brushed his cheek lightly like he was wiping a tear, and A-Xuan looked at him incredulously. Yan Wang smiled and watched as his eyes moistened.

A-Xuan said in a shaky voice: "Y-you were there, you were there the whole time."
