Chapter 555: Recognize
As Lin Ci'an carried Chu Ziyu through the corridor of the cocktail party, his chest was filled with an unprecedented rage and heartache.
He looked down at the trembling young man in his arms. His swollen cheeks and messy clothes stabbed into his heart like a knife.
“My people…”
This thought suddenly appeared in his mind very clearly, causing Lin Ci'an to hold his breath.
He subconsciously tightened his arms, as if this would allow him to rub Chu Ziyu into his bones and blood and protect him.
Memories of the past life came flooding back like a tide - the tearful Chu Ziyu in the ward and the fragile figure in his arms now overlapped.
Lin Ci'an suddenly realized that all the alienation and restraint he had maintained since his rebirth had collapsed at this moment.
"turn out to be......"
He smiled bitterly in his heart, "I have never let it go."
Chu Ziyu rubbed the crook of his neck gently, her warm breath fanning his skin.
Lin Ci'an's Adam's apple rolled and his heart beat unreasonably fast.
This feeling of being out of control made him feel both strange and familiar, just like the first time he met Chu Ziyu in his previous life. He knew he shouldn't get close to him, but he couldn't help being attracted to him.
"Mr. Lin..." The person in his arms sobbed softly, his voice was so soft that it was heartbreaking, and his body was still shaking.
Lin Ci'an's eyes darkened.
6872: "Boss, your heart rate is 120 now, are you overacting?"
Chu Ziyu felt Lin Ci'an's embrace getting tighter and tighter, "I'm excited - did you see Guo Mingjie's expression? It's like he swallowed a live fly."
Lin Ci'an suddenly realized how ridiculous it was that he had been deliberately distancing himself from the villain during this period of time - no matter how many times he did it, he was destined to fall into the hands of this little liar.
“Don’t be afraid.”
He bent down and kissed the top of Chu Ziyu's head, his voice low and firm, "I won't let anyone touch you in the future."

Lin Ci'an felt the body temperature of the person in his arms, and for the first time he calmly accepted the fact: he had already marked Chu Ziyu as his own territory, and would never allow anyone else to interfere.
Under the light in the car, the teardrop mole at the corner of Chu Ziyu's eye was particularly obvious. Lin Ci'an reached out and gently wiped away the tear marks on his face. The warmth from her fingertips made his heart tremble.
"My..." These two words rolled between his lips and teeth, and finally turned into a gentle kiss on Chu Ziyu's forehead.
At this moment, Lin Ci'an finally admitted that no matter how many grudges there were in his previous life, in this life he just wanted to keep this person firmly under his wings.
When Lin Ci'an parked the car in front of the villa, Chu Ziyu had already fallen asleep in his arms.
The tears in the young man's eyes had not yet dried, his long eyelashes cast fine shadows under the light, and his red and swollen cheeks made Lin Ci'an feel stuffy in his chest.
He quietly carried the person into the bedroom, and just as he put her on the bed, Chu Ziyu woke up with a startle, his fingers tightly grasping his cuffs.
“Don’t go…”
The voice was nasal, like a small animal that was afraid of being abandoned.
Lin Ci'an froze in place. His mind told him to leave, but his body sat down on the bed uncontrollably.
"I'll get an ice pack." His voice was dry.
Chu Ziyu shook his head and buried his face in his palm: "It won't hurt this way."
Lin Ci'an's breathing stagnated as his warm lips pressed against his skin. He should have pushed this dangerous thing away, but his fingers took the initiative to touch the top of the other's head.
