Little Vampire – 05
Su Tang slap Shen Lan"s arm and forcefully grabbed the hand that was touching his b.u.t.t. His movements were very exaggerated and Shen Lan, who was already close to falling asleep, when he realized the soft sensation in his hand was gone, suddenly became wide awake.
Su Tang turned over and reached out to switch on the bedside lamp. Then, sitting up and maintaining some distance from the other person"s body, he puffed out his cheeks and glared at Shen Lan.
“What"s wrong?” Shen Lan blankly asked as he looked over. The light stabbing into his sore eyes, he rubbed at them with his hands.
“You……” Su Tang was about to shout but was overcome with shame when he remember the other person"s hand squeezing his b.u.t.t. Faltering for a bit, he instead asked: “A moment ago, where did you put your hands?”
“Put where?” Having said that, Shen Lan gave it some thought. In truth, it was all very clear in his heart, but he did not want to admit it. Pretending to seriously think about it for a while, he finally helplessly said: “I can"t seem to remember.”
How could you not remember? You obviously gave it a touch a moment ago. As Su Tang thought this, he suddenly felt breathless. Like a girl who had been taken advantage of, he pointed to his b.u.t.t and stated: “Just a moment ago, you grabbed my a.s.s!”
His movements were very amusing and Shen Lan couldn"t help but laugh out loud. The laughter causing Su Tang to suddenly feel annoyed, he heavily pressed the other person down and sat on him, straddling him like a horse. Becoming angry from the embarra.s.sment, he said: “You are not allowed to laugh! You very clearly knew, you, you, you, you"re despicable! You are even cheaper than a vampire, I want to report you!”
Shen Lan wanted to continue pretending but seeing Su Tang"s appearance while in a fit of anger was very fascinating. Sitting up and holding his arm, he laughingly asked: “Okay, how are you going to report it?”
“I"ll report that you are a rogue,” Su Tang said loudly.
“En, okay then.” Shen Lan nodded, then earnestly asked: “In that case, may I ask this adorable little vampire cla.s.smate, can you briefly describe how this Shen Lan was being a rogue?”
Su Tang froze for a moment, only reacting when he realize that the other person was s.e.xual hara.s.sing him. Immediately, his little face became very red. Angered and ashamed, even his exaggerated cowlick was sticking out to show its annoyance. However, he was too thin-skinned and his level was also low. Shen Lan was so openly being a rogue like this, he had no means of going against it.
When Shen Lan saw that he did not speak, he once again laughed and teased: “En, this little vampire cla.s.smate, why aren"t you saying anything? We will have a very hard time filing your case like this.”
“Aaahhh, why are you like this?!” Still unable to make a powerful counterattack, Su Tang angrily puffed out his cheeks. Quickly climbing off of Shen Lan"s body, he dug back into the quilt and said: “I want to sleep. I don"t want to play with you.”
Shen Lan couldn"t help but find it funny. Laughing, he leaned over to speak into where Su Tang ears was from above the quilt. “Okay. Then you must protect yourself and prevent this big rogue Shen Lan from attacking you at night.”
Hearing this, Su Tang frighteningly held the quilt tightly and arched his body forward but could not find a safe position. When Shen Lan saw him like this, he finally decided not to scare him anymore. He was prepared to lift open the quilt but the result was not good. Shaking hard, Su Tang was like a hamster and with a whoosh, he drilled to the foot of the bed.
Shen Lan looked and saw Su Tang"s big eyes glaring at him.
“What are you doing?” Su Tang asked with vigilance.
Supporting his forehead, Shen Lan finally realized that he might have taken his joke too far. Having no other choice, he urgingly said: “Hey, I was only joking with you just now. It"s stuffy in the quilt so hurry and come out.”
“Don"t want to!” Su Tang refused.
“Quickly come out, ba. I was wrong. I admit my mistake, okay? Su Tang? Tang Tang? Baby?” Shen Lan tried his best to coaxed him.
Shen Lan did not actually lie to Su Tang. In the beginning, he did accidentally touched the other person"s b.u.t.t. He had wanted to take his hand back but the feeling was really too good and he simply became addicted and was unwilling to part or let go. As a result, when he went in for a second squeeze and was then caught by the other person, he was very depressed.
When he saw Su Tang blushing, he thought that it was very cute and he couldn"t help but tease the other. Contrary to expectation, it did not turn out well, as he had lifted a rock to smash his own feet[1].
Just as expected, Su Tang did not respond to him, merely nestling back into the quilt without a word. As the saying goes, a rabbit will bite when anxious. Though he was not biting now, he wanted to use his silence to freeze a person to death.
Shen Lan coaxed him for a long time but he did not see Su Tang softening in the least bit whatsoever. Ultimately sighing, he stood up from his failure and got out of the bed. Picking up the ball of quilt that was Su Tang and putting him back in the proper position on the bed, he stood before him and said: “You sleep here. I will go and sleep on the living room sofa tonight. Don"t stay wrap up in the quilt. Be good and do as you are told.”
When he finished speaking, he pushed opened the door and left.
Su Tang was actually very softhearted and had already wanted to forgive him when Shen Lan began to call him baby. However, he resisted it. He never thought that it would result in the other person actually running away to the living room for him.
Shen Lan was almost 190cm tall and it would definitely not be comfortable on a short and small sofa. Moreover, the living room was not as warm as the bedroom. Because of him, Shen Lan had been drenched in the rain today. What if he catches a cold?
TN: 190cm is… 6.2336 feet
As Su Tang thought of this, his heart began to feel even more uncomfortable. Very quickly hoping to the ground, he opened the door a crack. Possessing the speck of a little tsundere[2] at heart, he rushed back to the bed and pretending to speak to himself, he said out loud: “In three seconds, if not coming in, then close the door, ah.”
Shen Lan, of course, heard this. Nowhere did he even need three seconds as he broke into the bedroom within only a second. All of a sudden, the temperature in the room increased. Shen Lan was also very warm and he went to look at Su Tang but the other person had his back to him as he closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. His ears were twitching however, apparently trying to eavesdrop.
“Will not make anymore trouble. Good night.” Shen Lan smilingly said as he switched off the lamp and stroked Su Tang"s head.
Good night. Su Tang did not say anything but his exaggerated cowlick happily curled upward.
And then, a night of good dreams.
Despite not needing sleep as a vampire, Su Tang was still accustomed to his former incarnation"s lifestyle. Lying down on the soft bed, he could not help but sleep when it was dark all around. As the early morning arrived, Shen Lan got up to wash his face and rinse his mouth then went through his martial arts for a while. Afterward, he returned to the room to look, and found that the other person was sleeping in the character tài(太) position.
“Wake up, wake up, it"s time to get up.” Shen Lan wanted to pat Su Tang"s cheeks but when he saw the other person"s soft and tender flesh, he changed it to a pinch instead and quickly pinch both side of Su Tang"s cheeks, successfully turning him into a round flat cake. But the other person still did not wake up. Feeling helpless and with no other choice, he picked up Su Tang from the bed and carried him to the bathroom to wash his face.
Su Tang was in a daze the whole journey and could not even open his eyes as Shen Lan kneaded and pinched him. Soft like a rag doll without bones, when Shen Lan had pinched him enough, he simply put him on the sofa then went to prepare breakfast.
People who sleep for a long time would naturally be hungry. This same principle also applied to vampires. Though the aroma of normal food did not have any temptation for them, the scent of blood was different.
Su Tang opened his eyes and fixed his gazed on Shen Lan"s body. When cutting food just now, the other person had accidentally cut his finger. The sweet and fragrant scent of blood fluttered into air, surrounding him. For a vampire, this was simply a great temptation and Su Tang bloodthirsty soul awakened. Hungry, very hungry. This blood was very sweet smelling. He wanted to suck this blood.
But he could not.
In his body, two little people was apparently fighting. One wanted to restrained himself from sucking blood and one wanted him to indulge himself, hurrying him to suck the blood. Su Tang bit down on his teeth, enduring, but he was simply unable to restrain himself. Just when he wanted to turn and leave, Shen Lan turned his head around.
“Morning,” Shen Lan said with a smile. Seeing Su Tang staring fixedly at him, with his wounded hand, he stuck a fork into a piece of cake and asked: “Want to eat?”
“Want.” Su Tang slowly nodded and felt that his brain had stopped working. His eyes were only filled with the slender fingers and the tiny wounds that was on them.
Slowly walking over to Shen Lan"s side, he opened his lips wide then put those fingers into his mouth.
Translator"s Note:
Not at related to the story but I found a new place that sold pork buns yesterday. I was so happy and bought like 3 of them to eat for lunch/dinner. But when I got home to eat them, they weren"t as good as the one I usually buy. Had way to much peppers and for some reason- they put way too much celery and green onions in it. This was the first time I had every seen celery in pork buns. Anyway- the problem was that I was puking 30 minutes later. Either it was stale or near spoiling, I dun know. Unfortunately I didn"t notice. Sigh. But really though- Ugh. Major regret. Sorry. Just felt like rambling to someone.
Anyway- No weekend post since I get no computer time. I"ll see you guys on Monday. Thanks for dropping by and have a great weekend.
