Wheat Seedlings - Chapter 9

Chen Li gently brushed against the delicate petals there, causing Mai Miao to shift his legs slightly. "Don't touch..." he murmured. Chen Li looked up at him.

Mai Miao, like a lazy cat, tilted his head slightly, his face flushed with intoxication, his voice hoarse: "It tickles..."

Overnight, he seemed to have grown up. Learned how to tease.

Mai Miao gazed upward at the lush greenery, his nose filled with the mingled scents of earth and wildflowers.

He caught Chen Li's scent too—like firecrackers set off during weddings in prosperous village households.

Others found the smell overwhelming, but Mai Miao had loved it since childhood.

After the firecrackers came candy. So sweet.

"Ah..." Mai Miao's breath hitched.

His small Adam's apple bobbed with a swallow.

Chen Li had kissed Mai Miao's tender sprout with his mouth.

Mai Miao lowered his head.

Chen Li now took the soft penis into his mouth, his dark eyes gazing upward as the two brothers locked eyes.

Like this, watching Mai Miao while his tongue worked.

Mai Miao's face grew redder. His fingers dug into the soil, finding only dirt to grasp.

Chen Li's head bobbed rhythmically between the pale thighs, his sucking motions making Mai Miao's legs tremble uncontrollably.

It didn't take long before Mai Miao's body convulsed violently.

Chen Li released the now slick bud, his rough hand stroking the sac beneath until milky fluid spurted out in thick spurts, coating his palm

As Mai Miao panted, Chen Li didn't rise—instead, that tickling sensation returned between his legs.

"Mmm—" Mai Miao moaned, legs twitching until Chen Li caught them, draping them over his shoulders.

With Chen Li's face buried between his thighs, wet sucking sounds filled the air.

"Mmm—ah..." Mai Miao whimpered sweetly, body swaying slightly.

Chen Li's tongue parted the delicate folds, probing skillfully.

Gradually losing control, Mai Miao's feet slid aimlessly across Chen Li's back his very soul seemed about to slip away.

Chen Li didn't bring him to climax with just his tongue. When the time came, he rose, pulling his pants to his knees, freeing his rigid erection.

Before Mai Miao, he stroked his thick shaft several times—a mature male displaying his virility for mating.

Mai Miao watched the intimidating member through damp eyes, spreading his legs willingly when Chen Li pressed down.

After a night together, Chen Li had opened this body completely. Though his size made entry difficult even with ample slickness, after a dozen stumbling thrusts with their bodies entwined, Mai Miao took him fully once more.

Each penetration brought stretching discomfort, but Chen Li's skill and their natural compatibility carried them through hundreds of vigorous strokes—nearly half an hour without drying out.

Initially cautious about Mai Miao's unprepared body, Chen Li had held back. But seeing Mai Miao endure better than the previous night, he finally unleashed himself, flipping Mai Miao over to grip that slender waist and pound mercilessly.

Originally, one might have complained about Chen Li's roughness, but now that deep flesh-colored rod was thrusting in and out, the glans ravaging the delicate core inside while the outer bud was relentlessly rubbed. One of his hands was also stroking Mai Miao's shaft.

Even the most chaste person couldn't withstand Chen Li's treatment.

The sky was still bright when the old dog the Chen family had adopted barked a few times.

The Chen brothers, missing all night, had finally returned.

In the following day or two, outsiders only saw Chen Li moving about, with no sign of Mai Miao leaving the house. Even the chickens in the coop were fed by Chen Li.

They were all curious but didn't dare ask Chen Li directly.

Better a shrew's tantrums than a man who throws punches.

Though no one in the village had really seen Chen Li act violently, they all avoided provoking him.

Aunt Liu scrubbed the iron pot vigorously. "Whatever illness it is, as long as it's not contagious. If it were serious, wouldn't Chen and Mai Miao, sharing a room, be affected too?"

With a flick of her wrist, the wash water splashed onto the ground.

The woman beside her wasn't satisfied and wanted to press further.

Aunt Liu suddenly called out, "Ah, Brother Chen, need something?"

Chen Li carried two pounds of meat and some eggs, acting as if he hadn't heard their conversation, and distributed the pork and eggs to everyone.

These past two years, farmland had been allocated to households, and food and meat ration coupons were gradually being phased out.

The village was better off than before, but they still couldn't afford to splurge. Having half a pound of meat a month was already considered well-off.

Chen Li said, "We disturbed everyone the night before last, keeping you up all night. This is to make amends."

Aunt Liu accepted the items, and everyone was polite. After that, no one mentioned Mai Miao again.

Chen Li brought the food back to the house.

Mai Miao had woken up earlier, lying on the bed, blowing at a pinwheel with his bare bottom exposed.

Chen Li fetched a pair of pants from the cupboard and sat on the bed. "Get up."

Mai Miao reluctantly climbed up and stood on the bed.

Chen Li pulled the pants open and deftly helped him into them.

Mai Miao muttered softly, "Putting them on just to take them off again…"

The door was ajar.

Chen Li gave Mai Miao's buttocks a squeeze.

After returning, Chen Li had tended to Mai Miao carefully for two days, and he was almost fully recovered.

The last couple of nights, he had been able to sleep properly again.

As for Chen Li, having tasted flesh just a few times, he was back to enduring abstinence.

The two brothers sat on the bed.

Mai Miao peeled an egg while Chen Li slurped noodles, glancing at him frequently.

Mai Miao lifted his eyes, meeting his brother's gaze briefly before looking away, his ears burning.

Perhaps because they had slept together, the relationship between the brothers had changed subtly from before.

Others might not notice, but they knew it best themselves.

Though the episode had passed, Mai Miao was still listless and refused to sleep facing Chen Li at night.

Chen Li simply pulled him over with an arm.

Mai Miao squirmed, acting like a petulant young bride.

In Mai Miao's limited understanding, they were brothers, and brothers didn't strip naked and sleep under the same quilt together.

Mai Miao vaguely sensed that his relationship with Chen Li had changed and could never return to how it was before.

...If only his mother were still here, he could have asked for clarity.

Chen Li lay on his side, quietly fanning Mai Miao with a round fan, lost in thought.

After a while, he heard steady breathing.

Chen Li lowered his head and sniffed Mai Miao's neck—his scent wasn't as pure as before, now mixed with his own. Even after just two days apart, it had already begun to fade.

He set down the round fan and lay down beside him.

Early the next morning, Chen Li went to the commune to see Chief Li.

"How's Mai Miao's condition?" In a village of just a few hundred households, news traveled fast—any incident would spread across ten neighboring villages before half a day passed.

Moreover, the Chen family's situation was rather special, so Chief Li had naturally taken notice.

Chen Li replied vaguely, "He's been resting for a few days. Thankfully, nothing serious happened." He added, "It's a strange illness, almost like a hysterical episode. Hard to say for sure."

Chief Li quickly suggested taking Mai Miao to the hospital for a check-up, preferably with an X-ray.

Hearing this, Chen Li realized his parents had kept Mai Miao's condition completely hidden—even Chief Li didn't know the truth.

Chief Li continued, "To get from the village to the provincial capital, you'll need to take a donkey cart to the county first, then transfer to a bus. It's quite a hassle. Tomorrow morning, there's an official vehicle heading to the county—it can give you both a ride."

Chen Li had already decided to take Mai Miao to a major hospital in the provincial capital for thorough examinations.

So he nodded and finalized the arrangements for the ride with Chief Li.
