[BL] NEET life in the Apocalypse

Chapter 5—Passion

by Bocchan13

Both of them were face-cons, so it didn’t take long for them to grow attached to each other. Most of the conversation was on Song Yu’s side, with blunt inserts here and there from Lan Zhou. The more they conversed, the more they realized how much they had in common.

Lan Zhou’s company was in pharmaceuticals and bio-chemistry, whereas Song Yu was studying agriculture and horticulture. In the name of science, they had a coherent conversation about their respective fields without having to explain the deep processes that went with it.

Song Yu was especially happy, because whenever he started talking about plants, it usually put people to sleep, but Lan Zhou was eager to understand his perspective in agriculture and farming, even going so far as to show a video about the various advantages of bio-degradable fertilizer.

Song Yu glanced at Lan Zhou, whose cold gaze looked lovingly at the video. Song Yu smiled alongside him, as they watched the beta testing for the fertilizer.

“My friends are from various fields. One is Xiao Zi, who is currently working for the biggest pharmaceutical company in this city. He deals more with pathogens and disease, but I’ve recruited him to my company for his innate sense of bio-chemicals. He is a true genius.

Song Yu heard pathogens and disease, and couldn’t help but pause. The world would soon be plundered into chaos through an airborne virus. If he warned beforehand…maybe there would be a cure. Song Yu did recall that someone from the north was developing a vaccine. Not a cure, but a vaccine that could potentially enable humans to be immune to zombie bites and water contamination.

Even after 20 years, they were still in developmental stages. Song Yu’s thoughts trailed off, his gaze looking far into the past life.

 Lan Zhou watched curiously at this young man. Before, he only approached because the man was extremely good-looking, but after talking with him about his field of work, he had this sudden urge to convince him to come to his company. Although his company didn’t deal with agriculture, the study behind farming, fertilizer, and pesticides were in line with Lan Corporations future.

“When you graduate, I hope that the first company you apply to is mine.” His mental thoughts were carried through his lips, and his thoughtful tone made it seem so coquettish. A blush once again resurfaced.

Song Yu glanced at his male god and couldn’t help but smile sadly. He never graduated, because the world ended before he could. But that thoughtful tone and perusing stare condemned him to reply as honestly as he could.

“When I graduate, I definitely will.” That small promise, oh how he wished that would come true. His own soft tone made Lan Zhou’s inside scramble happily, but his cool façade continued with just a slight nod.

The air suddenly surged with an intimate aura. Song Yu had not realized that they were leaning into each other, so close. He was now vastly aware of how close Lan Zhou’s mouth was to his ear. The soft wind carried from his exhales, to tickle his ears like a melodic symphony.

Song Yu gulped down saliva, as the man’s aura intensified. Unlike before, when he was on alert, this aura surrounded him in safe comfort, like an impenetrable iron wall.

Song Yu looked down at Lan Zhou’s lips that had a perfect shape set in a constant neutral frown. He didn’t know if it was the atmosphere, or the music, or even the lights…but Song Yu felt the stirrings of desire enter his system fully. His breath halted as his eyes trailed Lan Zhou’s face. A hairs breadth away.

Cold lips touched his. Song Yu waited for that burst of passion like in those cnovels he read, but there was nothing.

Don’t tell me that I don’t feel desire for this man??

Lan Zhou also felt that the joining of lips were not up to standard. This was both of their first kiss, so they just stuck their lips together like fish.

On the other side of the club, Wang Cheng was laughing uproariously.

“Did you see that? Hahahahah! He just slapped his face with his own! Hoohohohoho” Xiao Zi slapped Wang Cheng’s head.

“Stop it! Can’t you see that it’s his first time? Didn’t your girlfriend in middle school break up with you because you slobbered?”

Wang Cheng continued his laughter, as well as Lu Jingxiu. His chuckling wasn’t as big, but the humor in the situation was indeed laughable.
“Ugh, poor boy. To be targeted by Old Lan, only to be met with disappointment. Tch.”

“Don’t worry about Old Lan, what he lacks in experience, he makes up for it with diligent experimentation."

That was indeed the case. Lan Zhou realized his mistake. Instead of just joining lips, he gently cupped the back of Song Yu’s head and tilted his head, applying more pressure. The feeling was there. It just needed coaxing. The soft velvet lips under him slightly parted.

The heat from his breath caused Lan Zhou to grip tighter, as both mouths opened. Hot breath mixed together and that feeling suddenly burst forth. Like fireworks sprouting through their minds, their lips entangled.

Song Yu felt that desire from before spurn forth as the kiss continued. As soon as he got used to this feeling, something even warmer slowly passed the barrier of his mouth. A gentle tongue slowly invaded. Song Yu moaned in surprise, as the tongue touched his, acrobatting to and fro. The sensation caused Song Yu’s knees to weaken and his breath to shorten.

His first kiss almost killed him.

“Breathe.” Song Yu couldn’t understand and continued his breathless pants. Zhou Lan ended the kiss, pecking his closed lips once more. A small stream of saliva had escaped Song Yu’s mouth at the corner, and the breathlessness made his face red and eyes pool with unshed tears.

Lan Zhou watched this spectacle and his eyes darkened in deep unrestrained desire. His blunt attitude was always a hindrance to him, but at this point in time, it was his saving grace.

“Yes or no? Do you want to leave with me? You can only pick one.”

Song Yu stared at Lan Zhou’s eyes, its coldness entirely gone replaced with unconcealed possessive desire. He shuddered as his gaze traveled down to the giant tent in Lan Zhou’s pants.

What’s the point of living if it was for in the now? This moment, for 45 years he was waiting. And he wasn’t going to mess it up. His breathing had settled down somewhat, so all he could muster from his broken lips was,

“Yes.”

In that single second, everything was quiet. Lan Zhou immediately took his hand, threw a bunch of bills at the bartender, as dragged him to the exit. Song Yu was tall at 180cm, but Lan Zhou was taller. His big strides were almost two of his, as they power walked.

Song Yu could feel the gazes of the party-goers, some with envy and some with knowing glances. Song Yu lowered his head as the blush that was ever so present, further deepened. His hands were gently clasped in Lan Zhou’s, and although he was almost being dragged, the nervousness and self-doubt disappeared only to be replaced by excitement and…expectation.

The outside was cold, so Lan Zhou helped Song Yu into his jacket. Puffs of air escaped their lips as Lan Zhou continued to lead Song Yu to the hotel across the street. It was a high class five star hotel. Its brightly lit foyer and impeccably dressed staff awaited his arrival like he had made an appointment. Bypassing them, Lan Zhou’s hands clung even tighter, as if afraid Song Yu was going to leave.

Song Yu also clasped tighter, his white knuckles exposing how much he was willing. Lan Zhou’s heart pitter-pattered in such euphoric happiness. He had many crushes in his life…but this one moment was something else entirely.

When he heard that yes, it wasn’t just for tonight. But maybe…even more. Lan Zhou brought Song Yu into the elevator, and as the doors closed, he pushed Song Yu to the corner, his blazing eyes full of intense passion.

Song Yu also felt that need for connection, as his arms circled around Lan Zhou’s neck. Their faces approached frantically, as another kiss was sought. The feeling of blooming fireworks once again resurfaced with a vengeance, as loud panting sounds emanated from their pre-occupied lips.

This urgency for contact was unlike anything the both of them had experienced. They ravaged each other’s lips, not caring if anyone saw. The elevator doors dinged, ending their kiss. Lan Zhou was even in a more urgent state as they almost ran to the room. Song Yu didn’t even have time to look around the suite before he was backed against the wall and his lips were once again roughly taken.

“You taste so good.” Lan Zhou’s deep baritone voice penetrated his mind, causing Song Yu to moan in pleasure. Hands roamed, touching and pressing. Song Yu shuddered when the curve of his back was gently caressed. Lan Zhou had read from somewhere that everyone had erogenous zones. Song Yu’s was the back.

Lan Zhou tried to remember everything that went into lovemaking, but the constant passionate gaze in his vision impeded his rationality. He just went by feel. Softly nibbling on Song Yu’s mouth, he traveled his kisses to the neck, which undoing Song Yu’s shirt buttons. Seeing the exposed flesh, he lightly bit the skin.

Song Yu felt the teeth on his skin, and the memory of the zombie’s mouth eating his flesh engulfed him. His body automatically shrunk in fear.

“S-stop!” Lan Zhou felt the trembling and fear in the body in his embrace, so he stopped immediately, looking up to gaze at Song Yu.

Song Yu expected him to look in irritation or at least on wonderment, but Lan Zhou gazed at him with worry.

“I won’t do anything you don’t want me to do.” Lan Zhou gently held Song Yu’s hand. As his taut body went from fear to slow relaxation, Song Yu softly nodded.

“Don’t bite me.” His small voice sounded so broken and sad, it made Lan Zhou’s heart ache. He gently picked Song Yu up and walked into the bedroom. The brilliant King size bed was ready-made for lovemaking. The sheets were pressed, and rose petals dotted the floor. Song Yu, held in a princess carry, leaned into Lan Zhou’s body, his head resting on his neck.

“We can stop if you want.”

Song Yu heard the concerning tone, and felt bad. They were in a passionate state just a few moments ago, but now that passion has cooled down.

“No.”

Song Yu got this one chance! If he didn’t do it now with male god, he probably would never do it for the rest of his life!

Song Yu heard a laugh from above, so he glanced up to see that Lan Zhou didn’t look angry. Instead, he looked quite happy. Lan Zhou kissed Song Yu’s forehead as he gently placed him on the bed.

“I was afraid I scared you. But it feels like you really like me.”

“Mn. I do.”
