Extra 2.1

Men must learn restraint.

And so, Ke Mingxuan and Bian Yiqiu showed what restraint truly looked like through their actions.

Starting from his second birthday, Ke Yichen was allowed to pick his own birthday gift. When he turned two, perched on Bian Yiqiu’s shoulders, he pointed to a building on the street. The next day, Bian Yiqiu had He Xu negotiate and secure the property rights.

This act later earned him a scolding from Ke Mingxuan, who berated him for being reckless. “What does a child know?” he said.

The following year, when Yichen turned three, Ke Mingxuan decided to handle things his way. He only took their son to a toy store and bought him a small toy car for just over 20 yuan. That was it.

Bian Yiqiu silently harbored his grievances for an entire year before finally finding the chance to retaliate, accusing Ke Mingxuan of being unfair to their son.

When Yichen turned four, both dads joined forces to take him to the largest shopping mall in Z City. This time, they agreed on a compromise beforehand that they would let Ke Yichen decide which store to enter and which gift to choose, but he would only be allowed to pick one.

Unaware of the subtle negotiations between the adults, Ke Yichen was simply thrilled to be out shopping for toys. He ran straight toward Toys “R” Us with pure excitement. Recently, he’d become obsessed with LEGO and was already capable of assembling small-particle models designed for kids aged five and above.

At the entrance of the store, an enormous poster displayed the latest craze, LEGO Nexo Knights. Ke Yichen, already familiar with the layout, dashed toward it and reached up on tiptoes for a beautifully packaged, massive box.

Bian Yiqiu immediately took it down for him. Ke Yichen hugged the box tightly, visibly delighted. But then, his attention shifted to the adjacent display of Mecha Dinosaurs. The savvy sales associate quickly crouched down with a beaming smile, saying, “This just arrived this morning. It’s the latest model, released internationally. It’s a bit tricky to assemble, though!”

Ke Yichen, unwilling to back down, puffed up his little chest. “I can do it!” he declared. Holding the Nexo Knights box in his left arm, he reached out with his right to grab the Mecha Dinosaur set.

At that moment, Ke Mingxuan gently but firmly spoke up. “Sweetheart, just one. Think it through carefully.”

Ke Yichen hesitated, torn as he stroked the dinosaur’s packaging. He glanced down at the Nexo Knights box in his arms, conflicted, before finally turning to Bian Yiqiu for help.

Internally rolling his eyes, Bian Yiqiu patted his son’s head comfortingly while leaning toward Ke Mingxuan, whispering in a conciliatory tone, “We agreed to let him pick one thing from a single store. But we didn’t say it had to be just one item, did we? Look how much he loves both. Why don’t we just buy out the entire store?”

Ke Mingxuan shot him a cold side-eye, unwilling to argue in front of their son. His tone, however, left no room for negotiation. “A promise is a promise. Don’t play word games. Men must learn restraint.”

“Hey.” This time, Bian Yiqiu fully rolled his eyes. He couldn’t be bothered to deal with Ke Mingxuan anymore. Squatting down, he gave Ke Yichen’s head a vigorous ruffle. “Sweetheart, both of these are great. The dinosaur is cooler, but the knights are really awesome too! Daddy thinks either one would be a good choice. What do you think?”

Ke Yichen furrowed his little brows and began carefully comparing the number of pieces and the assembly difficulty of the two sets, muttering an analysis to himself as he did so.

Bian Yiqiu straightened up, shooting Ke Mingxuan a disdainful snort. “I’m going to the restroom. Can’t bear to watch the kid agonize over something this trivial.” The latter part of his sentence was barely audible. No matter how much they disagreed on how to raise their son, they had a tacit rule never to argue excessively in front of him.

In the end, Ke Yichen chose the Mecha Dinosaur. The little boy had a competitive streak; the more challenging something seemed, the more it fueled his desire to conquer it. After Ke Mingxuan paid, Ke Yichen hugged the large box and gave it an excited kiss.

Toys “R” Us had a designated children’s play area. In the LEGO section, a few older kids were busy fiddling with the pieces. After getting Ke Mingxuan’s permission, Yichen, ever the social butterfly, happily ran over to join them, eager to share his enthusiasm.

Ke Mingxuan watched his son dash off. Only then did he realize that Bian Yiqiu had been gone unusually long. Glancing out through the large glass doors, he spotted Bian Yiqiu leaning casually against a railing, peering intently down at something below.

Ke Mingxuan walked over, but before he could pinpoint what had caught Bian Yiqiu’s attention, he saw him curl a finger and let out a sharp, flashy whistle. Almost simultaneously, a thunderous uproar of applause and stomping erupted from the lower level of the mall.

Following the sound, Ke Mingxuan looked down and saw an expansive skating rink gleaming with silver light. Scattered across the ice were adults and children alike, most of them gliding cautiously in orderly lines, holding onto each other’s waists. A few more skilled skaters weaved nimbly through the crowd, darting like fish across the ice.

However, Bian Yiqiu, and many others along the rink’s edge, had their eyes fixed on just one person.

At the center of the rink, the translucent ice revealed a striking logo beneath it, depicting a polar bear and a killer whale framing an ice throne. A tall figure dressed in black and red stood atop the throne, performing a flawless arabesque spin with exceptional grace.

Ke Mingxuan couldn’t immediately tell if the skater was male or female. But as they spun, slowly lifting one skate into an elegant arc, he noted their long legs, exceptional balance, and extraordinary flexibility…

Wait. That whistle Bian Yiqiu had just blown—what did it mean? And how long had this guy been standing here gawking?!

Ke Mingxuan stormed over, his aura heavy with anger, and slammed a hand on Bian Yiqiu’s shoulder. Through gritted teeth, he growled, “Bian. Yi. Qiu.”

Bian Yiqiu saw Ke Mingxuan approaching but didn’t sense anything unusual. On the ice, the skater had lifted their leg over their head, drawing loud screams and cheers from the crowd. Paying no attention to Ke Mingxuan’s interruption, Bian Yiqiu pushed his hand away and clapped excitedly.

The skater then executed a 180-degree split, arms arching back to clasp the ankle of the leg raised above their head, tilting their sharp chin upward in the process. Both Ke Mingxuan and Bian Yiqiu finally caught a clear glimpse of the skater’s face, a strikingly handsome young man with a faintly seductive air.

Just before launching into a high-speed upright spin, the young man seemed to glance deliberately in their direction and flashed a subtle smile, aimed unmistakably at Bian Yiqiu.

Bian Yiqiu was thoroughly amused, while Ke Mingxuan’s face had turned pitch black. As Bian Yiqiu continued clapping and cheering, Ke Mingxuan reached out and grabbed his wrist.

Bian Yiqiu calmly shook off his hand for the second time, turning his head with a sly smirk.

“Your self-restraint… doesn’t seem all that great.”

The same sentiment came up again later that evening. After dinner, when they returned to their room and Bian Yiqiu went into the shower, Ke Mingxuan stripped and joined him.

Bian Yiqiu, with an expression of mock disdain, pressed a single finger against a certain eager part of Ke Mingxuan. The Hansgrohe rain shower above them sprayed silky streams of water, with droplets running down their defined chests and abs. Bian Yiqiu’s physique remained stunningly impressive, so much so that simply scrubbing his back caused Ke Mingxuan to have an involuntary reaction.

But tonight, Bian Yiqiu was clearly in the mood to mess around. At first, he showed no unusual behavior, even letting out a couple of low, deliberate groans when Ke Mingxuan scrubbed his back with a loofah. That deep, raspy sound, purely masculine and utterly captivating, was all the more irresistible because it came from his beloved.

Ke Mingxuan not only harden instantly, but he also stepped forward, pressing his length against Bian Yiqiu’s ass. One hand snuck forward, ready to wrap around Bian’s solid waist and go with the flow for a seamless entry from behind.

However, Bian Yiqiu suddenly sidestepped, dodging his arm, and turned to face him with a mischievous grin. His lips curled up in a devilish smirk as he lightly flicked at Ke Mingxuan’s fully engorged rod with a teasing finger. “How about we test what real self-restraint looks like?”

Ke Mingxuan’s eyes narrowed, the fire of desire mingling with a flicker of irritation in his dark gaze. Grinding his teeth, he struggled to suppress the impulse to punch Bian Yiqiu and managed to ask, though not without difficulty, “What kind of game are you playing now?”

Bian Yiqiu’s eyes curved into playful crescents as he wrapped his hand around Ke Mingxuan. Under the gentle spray of water, he began stroking deliberately, a wicked smile on his face. “Let’s make a bet. See who lasts longer. The loser… should stop preaching about self-restraint.”

Ke Mingxuan felt something was off, but before he could think it through, his breath hitched sharply, and all rational thought evaporated. Bian Yiqiu, after his deliberate provocation, suddenly bent down and took him into his mouth.

This was clearly against the rules!

Caught off guard by the overwhelming wave of pleasure, Ke Mingxuan nearly cried out. Bian Yiqiu’s oral skills were as mediocre as ever, but it was precisely the rough, unrestrained licking, biting, and sucking that drove him to the edge. Already aroused, he became harder than steel, gripping the shower rod tightly and instinctively closing his eyes to savor the sensation.

His ragged breaths grew louder, drowning out even the steady sound of the shower.

Bian Yiqiu’s mouth worked intently on Ke Mingxuan’s length, while his hands remained far from idle. As warm water streamed over them, his strong hands moved confidently, tracing Ke Mingxuan’s waist, hips, and thighs with a touch that was both teasing and electrifying.

Occasionally, his fingers kneaded the firm muscles of Ke Mingxuan’s ass, parting and closing them as water streamed sensually between. Overwhelmed by the intensity, Ke Mingxuan grasped a handful of Bian Yiqiu’s hair, his taut abdomen and hips instinctively straining, pushing deeper into the heat of his mouth.

Bian Yiqiu cooperated, giving Ke Mingxuan a few moments of bliss. But just as things were about to escalate further, he abruptly pulled away. He stood up, grabbed Ke Mingxuan’s shoulders and turned him around effortlessly. The latter, still dazed from the mounting waves of desire, barely had time to react before being pressed against the wall.

A thick, rigid cock pressed firmly against the crease of his ass. Hot, heavy breaths puffed against his ear, rough and demanding, as a strong arm wrapped tightly around his waist. Below, Ke Mingxuan’s throbbing erection was trapped in a firm, calloused grip, the strokes steady and constant, making his body tremble.

Bian Yiqiu leaned in closer, his lips brushing against Ke Mingxuan’s ear. His voice was rough, hoarse from unbridled lust, dripping with need as he growled.

“President Ke, my baby’s father, my husband….control yourself, just hold on..”

Before he could react, Bian Yiqiu shoved forward. His hard, pulsating cock slid in with the help of the warm water, pushing through the tight, wet heat of Ke Mingxuan’s body in one swift, fierce thrust.
