Devoted to You

Mousetrap

"Acting comatose?" Chen Yu says, leaning back to look down at his husband curiously. "You gonna attempt to kill me baobei?" He grins, Gu Wei rolling his eyes.

"Of course not! Don't be ridiculous lao gong." Gu Wei replies, his hands sliding up Chen Yu's bare back and holding him closer. "We have you brought in to the hospital in an ambulance. We can say something happened while on another case or something. He won't need details." He swallows hard. "I'll have your room outfitted with a hidden camera. I won't allow him to actually do anything to you." He rests his head on Chen Yu's chest. "We'll need to tell the family, in case word gets out somehow and we might need them to act."

"Alright baobei." Chen Yu says, it does sound like a good plan. He feels dampness on his chest and raises Gu Wei's chin. "Oh lao gong. Don't cry baobei, I'll be careful. You and ge will be watching over me."

"Mn, I'm not letting you do this alone. I read an article about a robbery suspect getting out of doing jail time. His lawyer claimed entrapment on the part of the police." Gu Wei says, his chin resting on Chen Yu's chest as he pouts up at him. "We can't let him get away on a technicality. So, I consulted Captain Lang. She says this wouldn't constitute entrapment."

"Good thinking baobei. It's going to be very hard for him to get away with attempted murder of a police officer." Chen Yu bites his lip, wiggling uncomfortably. "Speaking of hard baobei?"

"We're having an important conversation here!" Gu Wei blushes, rubbing his forehead against Chen Yu's chest.

"Mn, but something is poking my ass baobei. Can't you behave yourself?" Chen Yu teases, moving his hips slightly.

"Oh come on! I'm not a monk." Gu Wei says, grinning up at him. "My beautiful lao gong is sitting on my lap, half naked. Of course I'm aroused." He smirks and nips at a nipple.

"Hm, I guess we're done talking for now? Let's go to bed baobei." Chen Yu whispers, licking at Gu Wei's earlobe.

"Absolutely. We can talk more later." Gu Wei grins, standing up and wobbling slightly. "How do carry me around so effortlessly?" He asks, moving toward the bedroom with Chen Yu wrapped around his body.

"Hm, maybe we should focus on your leg muscles. Those little chicken legs, I can't believe they allow you to carry me at all." Chen Yu teases, thrown down onto the bed.

"Chicken legs?" Gu Wei asks, sounding offended. "You seem to quite enjoy these chicken legs, when they're wrapped around you."

"Oh I do. Legs are the best part of a chicken." Chen Yu smiles, then laughs as Gu Wei dives at him.

"You're in so much trouble now." Gu Wei says, biting Chen Yu's throat and groaning.

   Chen Yu and Gu Wei have called a family meeting at the manor. They pull into driveway after passing through the security gate, to see everyone anxiously awaiting them. Chen Yu parks the car and sighs, glancing into the backseat.

"I'm surprised you haven't nagged." Chen Yu says to Mrs. Luo and she shrugs.

"I can wait until you're ready. Knowing you, it's something dangerous." Mrs. Luo says, opening her door.

   Chen Yu sighs again, getting out of the car and helping Mrs. Luo. They round the car and he takes Gu Wei's hand, giving it a reassuring squeeze. They head toward the group of people waiting by the front door and Chen Yu flinches, seeing Xiao Lin wiping tears.

"You're about to do something very stupid, aren't you kid?" Zimo asks, his arms crossed and a dark look on his face.

"Let's head inside. We'll explain everything." Gu Wei says, glancing at Chen Yu. Everyone is on edge, knowing full well his propensity to become a target. "Where's Nanny?"
