Chapter 116 "You really want it, don't you?"
---
As night falls, everything becomes silent and the hustle and bustle of the city gradually fades into the endless darkness.
The moonlight was as clear as water, gently falling on the balconies of two adjacent apartments, covering the quiet night with a layer of silver gauze.
In this private and secluded space, two figures approached quietly, as if it was an encounter carefully arranged by fate.
: "Chen, you really want it, right?"
Lin Yi's voice sounded softly, breaking the silence around him. His eyes were deep, as if he could see into the deepest desires of people's hearts.
He held Gu Chen tightly in his arms, his arms like iron hoops, unwilling to relax at all.
Gu Chen tilted his head slightly to avoid Lin Yi's fiery gaze, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
: "I do, but I always feel like something is missing."
There was a subtle hesitation in his words, as if deep down in his heart, his respect for tradition and his desire for freedom were in fierce conflict.
Lin Yi frowned slightly when he heard this, then smiled with relief. He gently held Gu Chen's face, and their eyes met in the moonlight, as if the whole world had stopped.
"Chen, to me, those so-called rituals are nothing but worldly shackles. I love you, regardless of identity or status, and even without any form of declaration. It's just because you are you, the one and only you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yi's lips gently covered Gu Chen's. It was a gentle and firm kiss, as if he wanted to put all his affection and promise into this kiss.
A hint of surprise flashed across Gu Chen's eyes, and then he was overwhelmed by the surging emotions.
He closed his eyes and let the warm power surround him. All his concerns and rationality collapsed at this moment.
Their kiss went from shallow to deep, surging like the tide, tightly connecting the two of them.
The kiss deepened, and both of their breathing became rapid.
He felt his warmth and affection.
His hands gently wandered on his back, as if to memorize every cell in his body. Lin Yi's hands slowly wandered on Gu Chen's back, and every touch was like drawing an invisible scroll, recording the most real and passionate emotions between them.
And he held him tightly, his heartbeat echoing between them like a drum.
Gu Chen hugged Lin Yi tightly back, their hearts beating like drums, resonating with each other's emotions, as if they were the only two people left in the whole world.
The night breeze blew by, bringing a hint of coolness, but it also blew away the dullness and depression around.
Their kiss looked particularly bright under the starlight, like the brightest star in the night sky, illuminating each other's world.
Tears glistened in Gu Chen's eyes. They were tears of happiness and relief at finally finding a home.
"Lin Yi..." He called softly, his voice filled with endless tenderness and dependence.
Lin Yi stopped and looked at Gu Chen gently, waiting for his unfinished words.
"I...I love you too." Gu Chen's voice was soft but resolute. These three words were like a rain after a long drought, instantly nourishing Lin Yi's heart and making it full of spring.
He kissed Gu Chen's lips again, this time with more affection and lingering love.
As the night deepens, the two figures stretch out in the moonlight, interweaving into a moving picture.
They no longer worry about those illusory rituals because they know that true love never needs external recognition and proof.
As long as they love each other, they can overcome all obstacles and write their own legend together.

As time goes by, the relationship between Lin Yi and Gu Chen becomes deeper and deeper.
They have experienced countless sunrises and sunsets together, from the blooming flowers of spring to the snow-covered winter. Every change of season has witnessed the growth and tenacity of their love.
On weekend afternoons, they would stroll hand in hand along the park's tree-lined paths, enjoying the rare peace and tranquility; they would also snuggle up to the window in the dead of night, look up at the stars together, and share each other's dreams and future.
Lin Yi would make a cup of hot tea for Gu Chen when he was tired, and Gu Chen would give Lin Yi the most solid support when he was lost.
However, the road of love is never smooth.
The rumors from the outside world and the misunderstanding and opposition from their families have caused them to fall into deep distress and struggle.
But every time this happens, they will stand together more closely and use their love and trust in each other to withstand all storms.
: "Chen, no matter what the future holds, we must believe in each other, okay?"
During a late-night conversation, Lin Yi looked at Gu Chen affectionately and said.
Gu Chen nodded, with a determined light in his eyes.
"Of course, Lin Yi. As long as we are united in heart, nothing can stop us."
In this way, they work hand in hand to face every challenge and difficulty in life together.
Their love becomes more mellow with the baptism of time, like aged wine, which makes people intoxicated.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, they have gone through several years.
On a sunny spring morning, Lin Yi brought Gu Chen to a place they had fantasized about countless times - a valley full of flowers.
There, they planted a sapling as a symbol of their love and made an eternal vow.
"Chen, this sapling is just like our love; it needs to weather the storms before it can thrive. I hope that no matter where we are in the future, we can be like this tree, with deep roots and lush leaves, and never separate."
Lin Yi said affectionately.
Gu Chen looked at Lin Yi, his eyes filled with emotion and happiness. "Yes, baby. Our love will be like this tree, flourishing and green all year round."
Gu Chen held Lin Yi's hand tightly, and they smiled at each other.
Many years later, the valley had become a dense forest, and the sapling had grown into a towering tree.
Lin Yi and Gu Chen often come here to reminisce about their past.
Their love is as eternal and beautiful as this forest.
