Sex and love, anger and pride [mxm] [✔]

Chapter 12

Wei stared at him with wide eyes, what did he say?
"I'm not quitting, you can't seriously..."

Yunlan tried to lower his voice, only half-succeeding. "I can, and you will, I don't want you around those people."

Wei was irritated now. "You can't tell me what to do! I can't quit."

"But you must!" Yunlan shouted again. "I feel sick thinking of how he treats you, people should bow in front of you and yet he dares..."

Yunlan crashed the empty can on the table to let out his frustration, and Wei felt something tugging at his heart. He really loves me, he thought, and moved closer.

He spoke with a soft voice now, caressing Yunlan's cheek with one hand and burying the other one in his hair. "He calls me boy but that's it, he doesn't mistreat me, it's not like he beats me or anything. I'm not his slave. Yes he orders me around, he's my boss, but I'm not his property. How many people have ordered you around before you got where you are now?"

Yunlan closed his eyes at the feeling of Wei's hands.
"But he's so rude to you..." he protested.

"Yes he's rude, he's always rude to anyone not just me, and he can be annoying, but he's really not a bad person! How many people have an annoying boss? My situation is really not that different from that of many other people after all."

"But you are!" Yunlan exclaimed taking his hand and kissing it. "You're different from anyone else in the world, I love you so much it hurts me to think that you're not ok."

Wei lowered himself enough to kiss him tenderly. "But I am ok, I have you, it's all that matters to me."

Wei sat on Yunlan's lap to better kiss him, and they kept kissing between one "I love you" and the other, Yunlan just couldn't stop saying it, then they left for the bedroom where they sweetly made love all night.

The alarm clock woke them up. It was earlier than usual but Wei had to get ready to go to work.
Yunlan watched him with a weird look on his face. He had a slight hangover, and he was having a hard time letting Wei go knowing that he would probably spend the whole day with 'that girl'.

Wei was out the door before he could clear his head, but he quickly got ready to leave soon after.

Wei thought of Yunlan's behaviour, he felt warm by how much he loved him but he was worried that he might have a drinking problem. He scolded himself, just because he didn't drink he thought that anyone who drank more than one glass had a problem, it had only been one night after all, it wasn't like he got drunk every time. And yet, his worry didn't disappear when he thought back at Yunlan's kitchen, he barely had any food in there but his fridge was always full of beer... 'that's because he orders delivery,' he told himself, 'he simply got jealous because he loves me.' He smiled and got out of the bus.

He helped miss Zhu into the car and drove her to their first stop, a nice place where she insisted he had breakfast with her.

It might be his imagination, but she wasn't as arrogant as she was at first, either she changed her attitude or he still felt grateful after she saved his job.

He drove her to a friend's house where he refused to intrude and waited for her in the car. When she came back she apologised for making him wait all morning, she said she hadn't seen her friend in so long that she just couldn't get out sooner without offending her.

As an apology she insisted they dined together; he might be tempted by the prospect of a free meal, but he also felt embarrassed.
"It's not appropriate, miss Zhu, I'm just the driver and you..."
