The more attention they paid to the two of them, the more severely they were stimulated. Su Siyu accidentally knocked over his glass, and some red wine stained his suit. His expression was extremely unpleasant as he stood up and went to the restroom to calm down.
Meng Qi also just glanced at Su Siyu’s back and let him go. When he looked at Meng Ting, his eyes gradually changed from surprise to hating iron for not becoming steel. How could he be so eager to let others take advantage of him! What’s even more infuriating is that Yan Sui took advantage of his family’s Little Seventh, yet still acted as if he was not moved by the situation. What was he pretending for?
“Have you finished eating?” Yan Sui asked in a low voice.
“Um,” Meng Ting nodded and glanced around. When he met Meng Qi’s gaze, he tilted his head in confusion. Why didn’t he understand why Meng Qi was angry with him again? They hadn’t spoken all night. Could it be because of that phone call yesterday?
Yan Sui followed Meng Ting’s gaze to see Meng Qi already turned his head in a huff.
Yan Sui withdrew his gaze, stood up, and extended his right hand to Meng Ting, “It’s almost time. Let’s go home.”
“Okay,” Meng Ting nodded immediately upon hearing this, then stopped pondering why Meng Qi was angry with him again.
Meng Yide and Han Xuejun husband and wife were talking quietly to each other. When they saw Yan Sui leading Meng Ting over, they put on decent smiles and waited for them to approach.
“It’s getting late. Meng Ting and I will take our leave first.”
Although Yan Sui had only been the patriarch of the Yan family for eight years, his imposing manner was unmatched even by some old foxes over fifty. When he spoke, there was a kind of charm that could not be refuted, and Meng Yide clearly couldn’t resist.
Han Xuejun glanced at Meng Yide, who seemed at a loss for words. A smile appeared on her face, which was extremely kind, “Little Seventh has never stayed at home before. I’m afraid there won’t be many opportunities to do so in the future. I think he should stay at home these days. Yide and I will…”
Before she could finish speaking, Yan Sui interrupted her. He looked at Meng Yide and nodded gently, “We’ll take our leave.”
Plain and straightforward, without even giving Han Xuejun a decent reason, displaying extreme arrogance.
But what can Han Xuejun do? Her face turned pale and red for a while, but she had to endure this attitude. She couldn’t afford to offend Yan Sui, nor could the Han family and Meng family behind her offend Yan Sui. In the face of absolute power, all manners and etiquette were meaningless.
Meng Ting was led away by Yan Sui. His gaze gradually moved from their clasped hands to the side of Yan Sui’s face. He stared for a moment, then a smile appeared at the corners of his mouth and eyes. In an instant, a charming smile bloomed, more captivating than a pearl in the dark night.
All of a sudden, many eyes fell on Meng Ting. Including Meng Qi, no one had ever seen Meng Ting smile like this, clean and beautiful. Compared with this kind of smile, those of them who still maintain their smile don’t seem to be smiling anymore.
Meng Ting was smiling, while they were just wearing masks that were hard to see through, quite boring.
“What a nice smile.”
A voice came through, almost making Meng Qi nod. However, the voice was too familiar. He turned his head and glanced at Su Siyu, pursed his lips, and remained silent.
“If you’re interested, go after it. You’re not someone who cares about ethical and moral considerations…” Su Siyu raised his smiling face, which was bewitching and wicked. He leaned close to Meng Qi’s ear and lowered his voice a little, but the seductive feeling was pushed to its extreme by him.
“A little white rabbit-like younger brother. Shouldn’t you be able to catch it…or, are you already tired of playing?”
Meng Qi didn’t get angry when he heard this. He was indeed not a good person. He raised his eyebrows and sighed softly, “Can’t afford to play.”
“Coward!” Su Siyu’s smile instantly disappeared when he heard this. As soon as he said this, he also walked away from Meng Qi.
However, he didn’t know that Meng Qi’s inability to play was not just because of Yan Sui, but also because of Meng Ting. That’s not some little white rabbit. If one really dares to look at him like that, they’ll definitely suffer a loss. One should know that by looking at Meng Xiao, whose hands are still hanging in cast over there.
Yan Sui and Meng Ting left, and secretary Wang Feng naturally followed them. However, he still didn’t share a car with Yan Sui and Meng Ting. He drove here by himself. At this time, no matter how much gossip he had in his heart, no matter how much he wanted to watch, he had no reason to come forward.
However, once Yan Sui and Meng Ting got into the car, they didn’t show any overly intimate behavior. Meng Ting was held by Yan Sui, and they both looked at Yan Sui’s Moments on Yan Sui’s mobile phone.
Meng Ting’s only close friend in Moments is Yan Sui, and Yan Sui didn’t like to post anything, so it was all gone after just one swipe.
Yan Sui is different; there are quite a lot of people in his Moments. There were Zhen Han and Gu Lang who were very fond of posting, they would keep posting four or five messages a day, which was naturally a lot more fun.
But Meng Ting wasn’t very familiar with them, he just wanted to watch the fun.
“Come a little late, missed Yan Lao Da showing off his wife. [Smirk1壞笑 (huài xiào): to smile disingenuously; to smirk; to smile smugly; to grin. 
]”
One teasing expression was enough to express Gu Lang’s mood at the moment. He didn’t want to be fed dog food by Yan Sui, who was promoted to a married man. It was a good thing he missed that scene.
But his happiness didn’t last long. Yan Sui, who rarely checks his Moments, replied to him with a comment; only an expression that seemed particularly asking for a beating, “[Smile]”
“Yan Lao Da, are you peeking?” Gu Lang regretfully changed the word ‘peeking’ to ‘here’ before sending it out, “Yan Lao Da, are you here?”
“Um.”
Gu Lang looked at Yan Sui’s name and suddenly cursed; Damn it! He was so excited that he didn’t even think about their party tomorrow night. When they see the two main characters, Yan Sui and Meng Ting, wouldn’t it be a matter of course that they continue to show off?
“Yo, yo, yo.” Zhen Han and a group of people flocked in one after another when they saw the post.
A row of inexplicable ‘Yo, yo, yo.’ lined up neatly.
“Yo?” Meng Ting looked at more and more comments, then looked at Yan Sui in confusion and said ‘Yo’ as well.
Yan Sui couldn’t restrain his restless hand. He raised his hand and rubbed Meng Ting’s cheek. Only after rubbing enough did he say, “They’re acting crazy, no need to pay attention.”
Meng Ting nodded hesitantly when he heard this, “So this is acting crazy? Then am I also acting crazy?”
Yan Sui’s heart was softened by Meng Ting’s cuteness. He said earnestly, “They are acting crazy, you are cute.”
Meng Ting kinda liked the word cute. He nodded, “You said Maoqiu and I were cute, I saw it.”
As he spoke, he glanced at the front seat with his peripheral vision, then raised his face, kissed Yan Sui’s chin, and then lowered his voice and said, “You are cute too.”
“Um,” it took a long time for Yan Sui to respond with this ‘Um’, and then he held Meng Ting in his arms and continued to browse through his Moments. They continue to watch that group of people going crazy in Gu Lang’s message comments, messing around.
Half an hour later, when they arrived home, Zhao Bing covered his chest and went back to his room to self-heal. Yan Sui continued to lead Meng Ting into the living room.
Nanny Wang also had prepared a medicinal meal for Meng Ting. Yan Sui went to take a shower first, while Meng Ting stayed in the living room to drink the medicinal food. After he finished drinking, he ate a small plate of washed strawberries and felt truly full. After cuddling Maoqiu for a while, he went back upstairs.
Yan Sui just came out of the bathroom, wearing a towel around his waist, but wearing nothing on his upper body. Meng Ting looked at it for a while, and his eyes gradually widened.
When Yan Sui wears clothes as usual, he only feels that he is very imposing, and it is not obvious how good his figure is. Now with nothing to hide his upper body, his beautiful and well-proportioned chest and abdominal muscles can be seen at a glance. There is almost no color difference between his body and his face, and it can be seen that Yan Sui often exercises without any clothes on.
Being looked at by Meng Ting, he felt his body heat up slightly. Undoubtedly, that cold shower he had taken earlier was in vain.
“Have you eaten?”
“Um,” Meng Ting continued to walk closer as he heard this. His gaze couldn’t help but drift around before returning to Yan Sui. Then he quickly grabbed his pajamas and bath towel, lowered his head, and went to the bathroom, “I’m going to take a shower too.”
But before he could fully walk past Yan Sui, he was taken into Yan Sui’s embrace.
Meng Ting raised his eyes and looked at Yan Sui, “What?”
Yan Sui’s Adam’s apple rolled up and down, and then he whispered, “It’s nothing.”
As he said that, he let go of the person.
Meng Ting walked to the bathroom and closed the door, then stretched out his hand to touch his chest, which was beating at a somewhat uncontrollable speed. His cheeks were already bright red before he knew it.
Yan Sui changed his clothes, sat down on the bed, and after a while, a smile crept up on his lips. A little while later, he saw Meng Ting poking his wet head out of the bathroom.
“Yan Sui, I forgot to bring my underwear.” More crucially, his bath towel was particularly small, so it was a bit difficult to wrap it around himself like Yan Sui did.
Speaking of which, he and Yan Sui had seen each other naked before. Yan Sui had helped him once. Just this afternoon, they had helped each other out again. It was reasonable to say that he shouldn’t have felt any psychological burden walking up to Yan Sui without wearing anything, but at this moment, even uttering these words made him feel extremely embarrassed.
“Can you… help me get it?”
“Okay,” Yan Sui said without any intention of making things difficult for anyone. As he said that, he stood up and walked towards Meng Ting. When he was just changing clothes, he helped Meng Ting get them. In other words, he discovered that Meng Ting forgot to bring his underwear before he entered the bathroom.
Meng Ting’s eyes fell on the underwear in Yan Sui’s hand. Not only were his cheeks red, but even smoke was about to rise from the strands of his hair.
He took the underwear and closed the door with a whoosh, and then a muffled voice came from inside, “Thank you.”
Yan Sui walked back to the bed and sat down, but the smile on his face could not be dispersed anymore.
Meng Ting walked out of the bathroom not long after. He looked at Yan Sui with wet eyes for a while and then walked towards him. Then he sat by his side with a red face and held his hand, “Shall we sleep?”
“Um, sleep.”
As Yan Sui said this, he pulled back the quilt. Meng Ting climbed up and lay down first. Yan Sui stood up again and turned off the light, then lay down next to Meng Ting.
This time, he didn’t need Meng Ting to remind him. He dropped a kiss on his forehead and say, “Good night.”
“Good night to you too.” Meng Ting replied. He rolled a little more, rolled into Yan Sui’s arms, and let the person hug him. Only then did he close his eyes contentedly.
It didn’t take long for him to fall asleep, but Yan Sui endured a sweet and painful time for quite a while before falling asleep.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to kiss and caress more intimately, but tonight’s experience is enough for him to understand that he no longer had any self-control to speak of in front of Meng Ting. He doubted whether he would be able to hold it in the same way as he had the previous two times after he kissed the person.
