On the second day of Seth’s competition in the neighboring city, Fang Chen, with nothing to do at home, decided to take Coco to the supermarket.

A pet-friendly supermarket had recently opened nearby. Fang Chen would often take Coco there, killing two birds with one stone by walking the dog and grocery shopping.

It was getting a bit late, so Fang Chen put a glow-in-the-dark leash set on Coco and headed out.

With Seth away, Fang Chen let himself go, buying a pile of ice cream and all sorts of sweets, planning to finish them all before Seth got back and destroy the evidence.

When he came out of the supermarket, it was completely dark. Fang Chen, carrying a large bag, regretted buying so much. It was too tiring to carry it all back.

As he passed a small alley, Coco suddenly barked twice towards the inside. Fang Chen curiously peeked in, thinking it might be a small cat or something, but he was surprised to see a person lying in the corner.

Fang Chen was startled.

What was this? Could it be a murder scene?

He grabbed Coco and wanted to run, at least to get a little further away before calling the police. Who knew if it was safe here?

But Coco unexpectedly pulled hard towards the person. He was a fully grown dog now, and Fang Chen, caught off guard, was actually dragged along.

Fang Chen exclaimed, “Coco!”

Unexpectedly, his shout didn’t stop Coco but instead woke up the unconscious person. The figure propped himself up against the nearby wall and swayed slightly.

The worst part was that Coco was still lunging towards him, even wagging his tail.

If it weren’t for the last bit of father-son affection, Fang Chen really wanted to let go of the leash and run away by himself.

He desperately pulled on Coco, but the next second, the person looked in their direction. The moonlight flashed, illuminating his face. Fang Chen froze, his hand went limp, and both the bag and the leash fell to the ground. Coco happily circled the person’s feet.

“Seth?” Fang Chen said in disbelief. “What are you doing here? When did you get back?”

Just an hour ago, he had called him and said he was going to train.

Fang Chen didn’t have time to ask too many questions. He ran over in a few steps, grabbing his clothes and looking him up and down, his tone anxious. “What’s wrong with you? Are you hurt? What exactly happened?”

The next moment, the person suddenly reached out and grabbed Fang Chen’s wrist forcefully, his voice cold. “You know me?”

Fang Chen was stunned.

It was only then that he realized something was wrong.

It was too dark in the alley; he hadn’t seen clearly just now. Although this person looked very similar to Seth, a closer look revealed obvious differences. He was younger, with golden hair falling slightly over his forehead, and a fierce look in his eyes.

Why did he look so familiar?

Fang Chen suddenly remembered. Wasn’t this the photo he had seen in the study?

It was the eighteen-year-old Seth.

Oh my god!

Oh my god, oh Buddha!

Did he time travel again?

While Fang Chen was looking at him in shock, the youth was also sizing him up. In front of him was an Easterner, with black hair and black eyes. His eyes were very bright, and his skin was very fair. He had clearly never seen this person before, so why… why did he feel so familiar? There was even an emotion welling up in his heart, wanting to come out.

He subconsciously didn’t want to be so fierce to him.

The youth slightly relaxed his grip.

Fang Chen swallowed lightly. “Are you Seth? How old… are you now?”

The youth frowned. After a moment, he took out a social security card from his pocket and handed it to Fang Chen.

Flipping the ID card over and over, Fang Chen finally accepted this absurd reality.

The person in front of him was the eighteen-year-old Seth.

Then what about the current Seth?

In the apartment, the youth sat on the sofa, his grey-blue eyes fixed on a giant wedding photo on the wall.

It was of “him” and Fang Chen.

Both were wearing white suits, seemingly on a beach. “He” was holding Fang Chen, his eyes lowered slightly, filled with a gentle smile.

It was hard to imagine that he would show such an expression to someone, but if it was Fang Chen, it seemed normal.

The youth clenched his fists slightly.

Two minutes later, Fang Chen came out of the bedroom after finishing a phone call.

Seth was still in the neighboring city, well, the twenty-eight-year-old one was. Then what about this eighteen-year-old one in front of him?

Fang Chen’s limited brainpower completely shut down.

How did two of them appear?

Afraid of affecting Seth’s competition, Fang Chen didn’t tell him about this strange incident. He just made up an excuse, saying that Coco was being naughty and disobedient. The man on the phone coaxed him and sternly said he would teach Coco a good lesson when he got back.

“Sorry, I kept you waiting.”

His own husband was still around. Fang Chen really didn’t know how to face the youth in front of him. He chose his words carefully. “Are you injured anywhere? Do you want to go to the hospital?”

The youth shook his head, paused for a moment, and suddenly said, “Aren’t we a married couple? Why are you speaking to me in such a polite tone?”

Fang Chen, “…”

Seeing Fang Chen’s stunned look, the youth pointed to the photo on the opposite wall. “We should be married, right? I don’t think I would do something like love and leave.”

Fang Chen closed his eyes, a headache coming on. “Yes.”

The youth had already seen the current date on the apartment’s digital clock. Being smart, he quickly figured it out.

He had traveled ten years into the future.

At this time, he was already married, and the beautiful, gentle youth in front of him was his wife.

The youth’s lips curved unconsciously.

This feeling was not bad.

Although he had missed out on ten years with him, there was no feeling of strangeness. He was confident that he would quickly become intimate with his lover again.

Let’s sleep together tonight.

The youth quickly made a decision in his mind.

Unaware of what the youth was plotting, Fang Chen sighed. “I haven’t told Seth yet… I mean, the you from ten years later, about this. He’s in a competition right now, but he’ll be back the day after tomorrow. When he gets back, we can discuss it. Can you remember how you got here?”

Even though he knew he had time-traveled, the youth’s expression remained calm, but at this moment, he was a little stunned. “What? He’s still here?”

He had already traveled here, so how could the old man still be around?

For the first time, the young Seth felt a little bit of a breakdown.

Fang Chen ruffled his hair, troubled. “This is too strange. Let’s first figure out how you suddenly got here.”

The young Seth’s chest heaved slightly, as if he were suppressing some emotion.

“Were you on the phone with him in the room just now? What did you two talk about?”

His tone was a bit cold, as if it had thorns.

But Fang Chen was naturally slow-witted, especially when it came to Seth. He never thought too much and just answered obediently, “I was just confirming if he was still there.”

The youth gritted his teeth and turned his head away.

Fang Chen saw that he seemed angry and was even more confused. No wonder Seth said he had a bad temper when he was young.

It was indeed quite bad.

But when he thought that this was the eighteen-year-old Seth, the one who was sharp-edged, with a youthful stubbornness, like a sharp bamboo shoot breaking through the earth without a care, Fang Chen’s heart softened.

He softened his tone. “What’s wrong? Are you still not feeling well? Do you have a headache? If you can’t remember, then forget it. Are you hungry? Do you want me to make you something to eat?”

Hearing the last sentence, the youth finally reacted. He turned his head to look at him. “At home, he lets you cook?”

Fang Chen was at a loss for words.

The youth looked around and sneered. “Is he bankrupt? He just lets you live in a place like this, with no servants at home. You have to go to the supermarket yourself and carry such a big bag.”

What “he”? Isn’t that you?

Fang Chen silently retorted in his mind.

“No, because Seth… my husband isn’t here, and the manor is too big, so I brought Coco to stay here for a few days,” he defended.

The youth’s voice grew colder. “My husband? Is it appropriate for you to call him that in front of me? We’re the same person.”

“…”

Fang Chen’s temper flared up too.

He was usually spoiled by Seth. When had the man ever spoken to him like this? Looking at this face, he couldn’t help but feel aggrieved.

“Then how should I address him!”

The youth was stunned. He saw the person in front of him staring at him with round eyes, his beautiful eyes filled with grievance. His heart tightened, and he subconsciously softened his tone to coax him. “I’m not being fierce with you. Don’t be angry.”

He quickly stood up. “I’ll cook for you. What do you want to eat?”

Fang Chen hummed softly. “You can’t make what I want to eat.”

The youth, “…” So annoying.

In the end, it was Fang Chen who called and had a nearby restaurant deliver food. There were a few restaurants nearby that were under Seth’s name. Usually, when the man was on a business trip, he would have them deliver food.

While eating, the youth roughly explained that he had fainted on the roadside after coming out of the boxing ring.

He recalled, “Before I fainted, I seemed to feel that the stars in the sky were particularly bright.”

Fang Chen frowned. “Did you get hurt in the fight?”

The youth’s heart skipped a beat. He looked deeply at Fang Chen. “Are you worried about me?”

“…” Fang Chen paused. “Of course I’m worried about you.”

He reached out and stroked the youth’s head. “After all, you’re going to be my husband. What if you got hurt when you were young?”

The youth’s expression turned cold, but he couldn’t bear to push away Fang Chen’s hand. “Don’t worry, I’m fine. I can fight better than ‘him’.”

Ah… he even has to compete about this…

Yes, that’s Seth’s personality.

Fang Chen held back his laughter. “But he just won the North American championship belt last quarter.”

The youth gritted his teeth. “What’s that? I can do it sooner or later.”

Fang Chen found his expression so amusing that he couldn’t help but want to tease him. “Then who’s better between you two? In terms of age, you’re younger, um, smaller…”

Fang Chen’s gaze couldn’t help but drift downwards.

The youth’s expression was extremely foul. He glared at Fang Chen. “I’m only younger than him in age. Other places are not smaller!”

Fang Chen burst out laughing.

Young people are so fun.

Seeing that the youth was about to explode again, Fang Chen quickly said, “Alright, alright, whatever you say. You saw the stars in the sky were bright?”

Fang Chen thought for a moment. In the novels he had read before, many transmigration were caused by things like the seven stars aligning.

Would this method also work abroad?

Fang Chen opened his phone and searched for the astrological phenomena of the past two days.

When he saw the result, he was instantly stunned.

It really was!

Today was “Venus passing across the sun”!

Fang Chen quickly held up his phone and showed it to the youth. “This is an astrological phenomenon. Can you understand it? Today’s astrological phenomenon is very peculiar. You might have traveled through time because of this! The next ‘Venus passing across the sun’ is… in a month. Does that mean if you wait at the same time and place, you can travel back?”

The moment Fang Chen leaned over, the youth’s heart was in complete chaos. His breathing quickened, and he felt his nose filled with the faint scent from Fang Chen’s body. It wasn’t perfume, but his natural scent. From his angle, he could just see Fang Chen’s soft earlobe. So cute…

I want to bite…

Fang Chen had said a lot, but seeing no reaction, he tilted his head and looked at him. “Did you hear me?”

Meeting Fang Chen’s bright black eyes, the youth felt as if his brain was filled with blood, and he even lost the ability to react. He subconsciously answered, “Okay.”

Fang Chen was helpless.

Okay what…

But thinking that the youth had just traveled through time and might not be feeling well, Fang Chen didn’t say any more. He put away his phone. “Let’s rest early tonight.”

The youth shot up from his seat, his eyes shining. “Are we sleeping in the same room?”

Fang Chen, “…”

He chose his words carefully. “I don’t think that’s appropriate.”

The youth’s face fell. “We’re going to sleep together in ten years anyway. Why not now?”

Fang Chen had a headache. “Um… my husband video calls me every night before bed.”

The youth sneered. “Why? Doesn’t he trust you?”

Fang Chen was speechless. “Can you stop trying to drive a wedge between us!”

Seeing that Fang Chen really wouldn’t agree, the youth gritted his teeth and didn’t insist further, going to the guest room with a foul face.

Fang Chen found a set of Seth’s pajamas and a disposable underwear for him.

“The house only has his size. I don’t know if it will be too big for you.”

The youth snatched them away and said through gritted teeth, “I said, I’m not small!!”

Fang Chen nodded repeatedly. “Big, big.”

After finally sending the youth to the guest room, Fang Chen felt a sense of relief. He also took a quick shower himself and lay down on the bed.

A few minutes later, the man’s video call came in on time.

Answering the call, on the screen, the man looked at him seriously and frowned. “Baby, your hair isn’t dry.”

Fang Chen pouted and rubbed his hair on the bed. “Don’t want to move, sleepy.”

Seth coaxed him, “Be good, you have to dry it. Be a good boy, baby. I’ll bring you a present when I get back.”

Fang Chen said “mm,” and reluctantly agreed to blow it dry in a while.

After all, he was hiding something from Seth. Fang Chen didn’t dare to talk to him for too long, afraid of slipping up.

He used the excuse of being sleepy and hung up the video after a few words.

The moment the screen went dark, Fang Chen inexplicably felt a little guilty.

What’s with this feeling of having an affair?

Getting up from the bed, he took out the hairdryer. Usually, Seth would blow-dry his hair for him. Fang Chen’s hair was very fluffy and not easy to blow-dry. After less than two minutes, Fang Chen felt his arm getting sore.

Right, Seth wasn’t here, but the young Seth was, wasn’t he?

Anyway, he’s going to be his husband in the future. It’s not a crime for him to serve him now, right?

The Little Lamb gave himself a thumbs up in his mind.

He righteously took the hairdryer and went to knock on the guest room door.

The door opened, and Fang Chen was stunned for a moment.

The youth had also just showered and was still steaming. Fang Chen swore he didn’t intentionally give the youth a bathrobe. The belt around his waist was tied loosely, revealing a large patch of abs. Looking up, there was also the Little Lamb’s favorite chest muscles.

Well.

The young version of Seth had a different flavor.

Fang Chen restrained himself, looked away, and handed over the hairdryer in his hand, saying directly, “Blow-dry my hair.”

The youth was pleasantly surprised and quickly took it.

Fang Chen sat in a chair, closed his eyes slightly, looking sleepy. The youth behind him slowed his movements, gently running his fingers through his hair.

The black hair brushed against his palm, so soft, a fluffy feeling.

The youth’s Adam’s apple bobbed up and down.

So this is what it’s like to have a wife. It’s so awesome.

By the time the hair was dry, Fang Chen was still leaning back in the chair with his eyes closed, looking as if he had fallen asleep.

The youth tiptoed over, almost sticking to his face. Looking at Fang Chen’s soft cheek, he couldn’t help but want to lean over and give it a gentle kiss.

Just as he was about to touch him, Fang Chen suddenly woke up. He opened his eyes and saw the youth so close, his eyes widening.

The youth shot up straight, looking nonchalant. “Why did you fall asleep? I was about to wake you up.”

Fang Chen blinked his eyes and said “mm.” He stood up, walked to the door, and suddenly smiled.

“Do you know what the current Seth would have done just now?”

Fang Chen pointed to his own lips. “He would have definitely just kissed me. To him, getting a taste is more important than anything else.”

The youth froze on the spot.

Fang Chen smiled brightly. “Goodnight, little brother.”

After the door closed, the youth slammed his fist on the table.

Old man! So shameless!!

And! Why did Fang Chen call him little brother! He’s not that much younger than him!!

I really want to punch that old man!

The next day, while Seth was not back, Fang Chen planned to take the youth to the mall to buy a few sets of clothes. Otherwise, it would be awkward for him to keep wearing Seth’s clothes. And with Seth’s petty nature, he would definitely be angry when he got back.

Hearing Fang Chen’s words, the youth snorted coldly. “What are you afraid of him for? Is he going to hit you?”

Fang Chen fell silent.

The youth’s gaze darkened. “He really hits you?”

Fang Chen turned his face away. “No, no.”

Spanking counts as hitting, doesn’t it?

The youth grabbed his wrist. “If he bullies you, you must tell me.”

Fang Chen said, amused, “He is you. What are you going to do to him?”

The youth said heavily, “I would never bully you.”

Hearing this, Fang Chen’s heart suddenly softened. He smiled. “No, Seth is very good to me. He loves me very much.”

The youth’s lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he just looked away.

After going to the mall, Fang Chen, with a wave of his hand, bought a lot of clothes. He also picked out a lot for Seth. Because their figures were similar, he had the youth try them on for him.

The youth had a foul face from beginning to end.

When he went to pay, Fang Chen said deliberately, “Don’t be unhappy. I’m using Seth’s card.”

The youth snorted. “I have money too.”

Fang Chen thought about it, and it was true.

He was Seth. Seth’s money was his.

For lunch, the two of them just ate at the mall.

Just as they finished ordering, Seth called him.

Fang Chen quickly made a “shush” gesture to the youth opposite him.

The youth, with a cold face, watched as Fang Chen answered the call.

He didn’t know what was said on the other end, but Fang Chen’s eyes curved, and his tone was like he was acting cute, his voice very soft, obediently calling “hubby.”

A wave of restlessness suddenly surged in the youth’s heart.

If only Fang Chen were calling him that…

Knowing that Fang Chen was eating out with Jamin at noon, Seth didn’t ask much, just told him to eat less spicy and cold things, to be careful of stomach discomfort. Fang Chen obediently agreed to everything.

Baby had been so good these past two days. Seth’s heart was a puddle of softness, wishing he could fly back from the competition venue right now and hold him in his arms.

“Baby is so good. I miss you.”

Fang Chen also said softly, “Hubby, I miss you too.”

The youth opposite him lowered his gaze, his fists clenching slightly.

After a few more sweet nothings, he hung up the phone. Seth stretched his wrists, preparing to go on stage in a while.

Joey next to him didn’t know what he was looking at on his phone, laughing so hard his teeth were showing.

Seth walked over. “What are you looking at? It’s time to get ready for the stage.”

Joey turned his phone for Seth to see. “It’s Jamin, livestreaming in a haunted house. He’s being chased by a ghost. Hahaha, this is hilarious.”

Seth’s gaze paused, and he looked intently at the screen.

Jamin was livestreaming in a haunted house?

Then who was eating with his wife?

.

After coming out of the mall, Fang Chen couldn’t resist and went to an ice cream shop to buy a cone. He stuck out his tongue and licked it quickly.

The youth’s eyes were glued to him.

It wasn’t until Fang Chen looked over at him that the youth awkwardly looked away. “I just heard you promise him not to eat cold things.”

Fang Chen’s eyes widened. “What are you doing?! What do you mean?! Are you going to tattle on me!”

The youth quickly said, “I’m not. How could I? I’m just afraid you’ll get a stomachache from eating cold things.”

“I won’t,” Fang Chen pouted. “He’s just too strict, not allowing anything.”

The youth’s back suddenly straightened a little. “I wouldn’t be like that.”

Fang Chen thought of something, his eyes lighting up. “You should write me a letter of guarantee when you get back.”

“What?”

“Just guarantee that in the future, you won’t control Fang Chen, you’ll listen to everything Fang Chen says, both during the day and at night!” Fang Chen was scheming in his mind. “You take this letter of guarantee back, hang it on the wall, and recite it every day.”

The youth’s lips curved.

Fang Chen leaned closer to him. “Okay?”

“Okay.”

.

After they got back, Fang Chen really did make the youth write a letter of guarantee, even insisting he put his handprint on it. He folded it neatly and had the youth put it away carefully.

After a day of shopping, Fang Chen was also a little tired. Just as he was about to go change his clothes, his phone suddenly vibrated.

The garage of this apartment had a new notification, showing [Your car is entering the garage].

Fang Chen was stunned for a moment, then suddenly reacted.

Seth was back?

How could that be? Wasn’t his flight tomorrow morning?

Seeing Fang Chen’s face change, the youth frowned. “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”

Fang Chen said in a panic, “My husband is back! You, you, you, hurry up and hide.”

The youth’s face was cold. “Why should I hide?”

Fang Chen didn’t know why either, just inexplicably guilty. He clenched his phone, his tone urgent. “You hide first. I’ll tell him about this when I get the chance. Otherwise, I’m afraid he won’t be able to take it.”

The youth, with a sullen face, was about to say something more, but he was unceremoniously pushed into the guest room by Fang Chen, who quickly closed the door.

The next moment, the sound of the main door opening was heard. His heart was in his throat. He hurried out and ran right into the man who was entering.

Seth looked displeased. He glanced at Fang Chen. “You haven’t even changed your clothes. Just got back?”

Fang Chen stammered, “Yes, yes. Why are you back today? Wasn’t your flight tomorrow?”

Seth stared at him for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled.

“Didn’t you miss me? Isn’t it good that I’m back early?”

“Baby, why do you look a little nervous?”
