Lawless Gangster

Chapter: 20

I listened to: Lie by BTS [so good T.T such a good album!]

Hi everyone! Thank you for your kind words in hoping I get enough sleep! Sadly, I have really bad insomnia so I tend to stay up later then I want. When that happens which is almost everyday, I just read or translate. Which is the result of this chapter ╰( ͡'◟◯ ͡')╯

Have a great day!! Night~

THANK YOU for reading enjoying the start of a journey with my <3 boys:

Qi Xiu Yuan & Xiao Li

(ღ˘⌣˘)❛ั◡❛ัღ)

《不法之徒》

Arriving at the corner that they had agreed to meet, Qi Xiu Yuan immediately ran over to where Xiao Li's car was parked.

He knocked on the window for a moment. Not waiting for a reply, he pulled the car door open. Just that first glance at the sight in front of him, he suddenly felt his chest tightened.

"Didn't I tell you that you can't drink for at least two months?" The tone of his voice was riddled with anxiety and anger as they left his lips, "Such a strong scent, how much did you drink?"

Xiao Li was leaning back against the driver's seat with a deathly pallor painted across his face. It was as if he was not only afraid of the light but also afraid of the noises surrounding him. With eyes closed, he shifted just slightly from his position.

Qi Xiu Yuan sighed. Then, he slowed down his speaking manner, lowered his voice and asked, "Where do you feel uncomfortable? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

Xiao Li's brows knitted together into a frown. It looked as though he was trying really hard to keep awake. It was only a moment later did he open his eyes.

"Can you drive?"

"I can."

Upon hearing that his voice was still steady, Qi Xiu Yuan became slightly relieved.

"Go to your place."

Having said that, Xiao Li leaned to the side and tried to shift his body toward the front passenger seat. As he watched Xiao Li strenuously moved toward the seat, Qi Xiu Yuan leaned half his body into the car and reached over to help him. But, not watching his footing, Qi Xiu Yuan tripped and both of his hands grabbed hold of Xiao Li's waist; within a split second, his entire weight pressed down on Xiao Li's body.

"Xiao Li......" Just as he was about to ask Xiao Li if he was 'okay', he saw that Xiao Li's eyes were half open. Because he wasn't feeling well, his breath was hot as it escaped his slightly parted lips. Seconds later, he looked as if he was in a lost in a trance.

Xiao Li's entire body stiffened. In front of his eyes were the vague, indistinct figure of Li Shi Qing moving in close to his face to him. In that fleeting moment, his stomach twisted in pain again. He let out a few dry coughs before disgustingly cursing out. "Fuck off!"

Having a guilty conscience, Qi Xiu Yuan pulled his own limbs up and helped Xiao Li sit properly before fastening the seatbelt for him. During the entire ordeal he did not dare to give Xiao Li another glance.

Through the entire ride, his heartbeats were like thunderbolts perpetually striking his chest as if it was attempting to escape. It was an overwhelming mixture of excitement then disappointment that took turns to toy with him. Only when he lowered the car window and let the cool breeze caress him wholly for the ride back did his thoughts calmed down.
