A skin-thirsty episode occurred, in her brother's arms.

Xu Xingchen was really too sleepy.

He hadn't slept well for a long time; in the past, every time he closed his eyes, he would have nightmares.

He had too many worries: he was worried that Qin Ge would find out about his illness, and he was worried that Qin Ge would know that he liked him.

He was worried that Qin Ge would find him disgusting, and that he would leave him forever.

Now he was at least certain that even if he slept with Qin Ge, Qin Ge would not abandon him.

That's enough.

I've been really tired these past two days.

He was at his physical and mental limit, so he slept for an even longer time.

I slept until it got dark and then light again.

During this time, Qin Ge fed him something.

He had a vague recollection of it, and after recognizing the familiar scent, he fell asleep again.

By the time he had a full night's sleep, a day and a night had passed.

The room was dark, with the lights off and the curtains drawn.

Xu Xingchen's head was spinning, and it took him a long time to realize what had happened.

He opened his mouth, but his voice was hoarse.

In the darkness, something was watching him, and he tentatively called out Qin Ge's name.

"Qin Ge?"

My throat is so dry and uncomfortable.

The person in the darkness came over and poured him a glass of water.

After helping him up and giving him some water, his throat finally felt a little better.

The air still carried the lingering smell of last night's absurd night.

Xu Xingchen, "Why aren't the lights on?"

Qin Ge then turned on the light.

He tossed the medicine in front of Xu Xingchen. "Xingchen, don't you have anything to say to me?"

Xu Xingchen saw the medicine, his expression calm. "You knew everything?"

After he had a relationship with Qin Ge, he didn't intend to hide it from him.

He was testing the limits of Qin Ge's indulgence towards him.

He's that kind of greedy coward; he won't take the final step until he's completely certain.

His greatest skill was weaving a web and waiting, disguising himself as prey as he watched Qin Ge step in.

Qin Ge: "Lin Sui knows, Qian Leilei knows, but I don't? Am I always going to be excluded from the spotlight?"

They were clearly the closest of friends, yet Xingxing didn't tell him about this, instead seeking help from others and keeping it a secret from him for so long.

Shouldn't they be the closest?

Qin Ge couldn't accept it.

He couldn't accept that Xu Xingchen had hidden anything from him.

This was such a big thing that he almost lost Xu Xingchen completely.

If it weren't for what happened that night, he wouldn't know how long Xingxing planned to keep it from him.

Xu Xingchen still offered an explanation, "Leilei doesn't know either."

Qin Ge's lips curled slightly, but the smile didn't reach his eyes. "Should I feel honored?"

For him, it doesn't matter if it's not the only one.

He only wanted to be Xu Xingchen's one and only, but there were far too many people in Xingchen's world.

He sat there thinking a lot.

He wondered if the night he and Xingxing were together, when they were truly in love, was the night Xingxing was experiencing a breakdown, a night of infatuation and confusion.

That's why he said afterwards that it was just an accident and that it was best to pretend nothing happened.

He understood his own feelings. He was certain that he loved Xingxing, that he couldn't live without him, and that he would rather die than leave Xingxing.

Even a twisted and obsessive love is still love.

He hadn't truly understood his own heart before, forcing everything to be based on brotherhood; now he understands.

But what about the stars?

He knew Xingxing would miss him too; they had such a long-standing relationship, but more than that…

He didn't know.

Having a relationship doesn't mean anything; he still doesn't have a formal status.

Qin Ge was angry, but he couldn't bear to be angry with Xu Xingchen, so he could only say that he had brought this all on himself.

If he had realized this sooner, things might be different now.

He didn't get the answer he wanted from Xu Xingchen last night, so now he'll fight for it himself.

At least for now, the stars are around him.

Xu Xingchen had no idea what Qin Ge was thinking. He took the medicine and prepared to take it.

Qin Ge snatched the medicine from his hand. "I've suspended your trial participation."

"Drugs in the experimental stage have too many side effects."

He couldn't bear the possibility of losing Xu Xingchen.

"Use the same medication as before, and I will meet all your needs."

He moved closer to Xu Xingchen, his voice full of seduction, "You can use me as you please, even if it's just as a tool."

"Star, I promise I'm better than anyone else."

After all, he had already scheduled surgery.

He won't give Xingxing a chance to return it.

Xu Xingchen's ears felt a little hot. "Qin Ge, don't do that. I didn't mean it that way."

Qin Ge's eyes turned cold in an instant. "Xingxing wants to find someone else?"

Xu Xingchen, "No..."

"That's fine then. Even if it's a tool, there can only be one of me."

The doctor Qin Ge found has arrived.

After Qin Ge carried Xu Xingchen to wash up and changed his clothes, he moved to the living room before letting the doctor in.

The doctor examined Xu Xingchen's condition in detail and performed various tests.

This time, Xu Xingchen did not deliberately hide it.

The doctor pushed up his glasses and rubbed his temples. "This gentleman's condition is very complicated."

"This is the second case I've encountered where skin hunger has evolved into sex addiction, and this gentleman's case is a bit more unusual."

The more intense the suppression, the more ferocious the outburst.

However, this situation is now showing signs of easing.

"My advice is the same as this gentleman's previous doctor: relieve the symptoms and combine it with medication."

"As for medication, we could add another one."

The doctor quickly wrote something down.

Qin Ge, "How often should evacuation be carried out?"

"The current recommendation is once a day, and this can be extended as needed depending on the situation."

"Is once a day too little?"

The doctor glanced at Qin Ge meaningfully, "These things should be done in moderation."

Qin Ge remained silent, simply staring at the doctor.

A bead of sweat trickled down the doctor's forehead. He slowly changed his tune, "However, in these matters, the patient's feelings should be the primary consideration. There are no strict requirements regarding the frequency."

Qin Ge received a satisfactory answer, "Okay, thank you, I'll see you out."

"No need, no need, I can walk by myself."

After Qin Ge left with the doctor, he returned shortly afterward with a watch.

He also sat down opposite Xu Xingchen, holding a pen in his hand.

It looks very professional.

"These questions are related to your condition, Xingxing, you must answer them truthfully."

Xu Xingchen curiously peeked at the watch in his hand, and instantly her face and neck turned bright red.

He glared at Qin Ge. "What are you doing?"

He reached out to tear the watch.

Qin Ge stopped him. "It's all for the sake of treatment. Xingxing, what are you thinking?"

"My first question is, how long will it take to feel comfortable?"

Xu Xingchen didn't want to talk to Qin Ge.

This is just the appetizer; what follows is even more shameful.

He had no idea what Qin Ge was thinking.

Qin Ge: "If they don't cooperate with the treatment, I can only proceed according to my own understanding."

Xu Xingchen gritted his teeth. "Half an hour."

"The stars are dishonest."

Qin Ge wrote down a time himself.
