Chapter 121

S Hotel, Song Yue Restaurant private room, the décor is stylish and elegant, luxurious yet low-key, every detail is exquisitely perfect.

On the dinner table are the restaurant's signature colorful and mouthwatering dishes.

This should have been a romantic night - married couples, lovers, blurred outlines of young boys and girls, they should have different lives on a night like this.

But at this moment, three pairs of people with different identities are sitting together in the private room.

Qiao Rui and Xu Yi sit together, waiting for the upcoming trial.

Xiao Chen folds his arms, squinting at the two people opposite him.

Xu Yi doesn't even dare to say a word, including after discovering that Teacher Yu is actually Qiao Rui's girlfriend, she doesn't dare to show any expression.

While Qiao Rui is calm and composed, sitting to the side.

After the last dish is served, the waiter respectfully says, "Mr. Xiao, Madam, all the dishes have been served."

Yu is once again softened by being addressed as "Madam".

Xiao Chen nods slightly at the waiter, "You can leave first."

"Alright."

Qiao Rui is also very nervous inside, but he still handles this better than Xu Yi.

He rubs his hands and his eyes shine, "Oh my, finally everything is served, I'm starving."

Xiao Chen blurts out coldly: "Did I tell you to pick up your chopsticks?"

"......"

"Go on," he leans back, attitude casual, "this time make up a more original excuse to broaden my horizons."

"Brother, Teacher Yu–" After struggling for a while, Xu Yi speaks up, "we were studying together today, then we played some games after we finished studying exercises, really."

She tries her best to prove herself, taking out her test paper and workbook from her schoolbag, "If you don't believe me you can check, I can tell you what we studied today."

Yu never doubted Xu Yi's words, so she didn't look either, "Put them away first, I believe you."

Xu Yi breathes a sigh of relief.

Seeing that Xiao Chen is relentless, Qiao Rui hurriedly signals Han Chengxun: "Bro, help me out!"

Han Chengxun is serving dishes to Lin Shu'an. Catching Qiao Rui's signal from the corner of his eye,

He coughs lightly with a clenched fist, saying: "Alright, didn't they say they were studying? It's normal to relax for a bit after studying right?"

Xiao Chen: "Which side are you on?"

Han Chengxun: "Furthermore, this age is normal. Isn't Qiao Rui eighteen already?"

"Yes!" Qiao Rui quickly agrees, "I'm already eighteen."

Han Chengxun doesn't think this is a big deal. "Yeah, puberty. You should understand."

"Understand?" Xiao Chen feels this is ridiculous. Turning his head, "Easy for you to say, if the parent who gets called in isn't you right? You don't know that I'm very familiar with their principal now."

Yu silently eats, thinking to herself, wasn't it you who said last time to let Qiao Rui continue causing trouble?

Han Chengxun's words are shocking, "Isn't that exactly what you wanted?"

Xiao Chen: "......"

Yu is stunned, he really lives up to being...good brothers.

He can figure out what the other party is thinking in an instant.

Under the table, Lin Shu'an squeezes Han Chengxun's thigh, signaling him to shut up.

Finally Yu lifts her eyes, saying: "Bumping into me is your luck, if you ran into Principal Qin, how would you explain it?"

Qiao Rui: "However it needs to be explained, anyway we really were studying today."

Xiao Chen says: "You two kids, have you forgotten what happened last time?" He asks Xu Yi, "Have you forgotten what your mother said? I also promised your mother, are you taking advantage because you think I'm easygoing, determined to fleece me?"

Xu Yi looks down without speaking, Xiao Chen continues: "I'll pretend I didn't see anything this time, but if I catch you again next time, I'll have to tell your mother, do you understand?"

Xu Yi obediently nods: "Ok."

Xiao Chen's attitude toward her is gentle, "Let's eat."

After the meal, everyone splits up.

Xiao Chen sends Xu Yi home first, fortunately her parents haven't returned yet.

After sending Xu Yi home, Xiao Chen personally sends Qiao Rui back to Yunwan Condominiums.

For some reason, both Xiao Chen and Yu feel like sinners after catching the two children secretly meeting again but letting them off easy.

In order to get rid of this guilt, Yu lets him stay overnight at Yunwan Condominiums.

"Why?"

"Keep an eye on Qiao Rui, don't let him cause more trouble."

"Alright then," Xiao Chen agrees with a nod, "then let's go back and get my stuff."

She gives a hollow laugh: "I think it's better if you go back yourself. After all we're not married yet, he still sees me as an outsider. But you're his family, he must feel closer to you, so talk to him properly."

After a long pause Xiao Chen only responds: "You think he has seen you as an outsider before?"

"......"

Yu says: "Fine, I feel that ever since he started boarding at school, you basically don't pay much attention to him anymore, you're always with me, that's not good either. Kids this age act tough, but they actually need people to care about them."

Of course Xiao Chen knows this reasoning, but he responds childishly, "So it's wrong for me to be with my girlfriend?"

"......"

Yu suddenly finds the courage and impulse to reach out and comfort him.

Xiao Chen's body suddenly stiffens, in an instant all his senses are overwhelmed by her touch.

Xiao Chen: ?

Yu moves closer to him, whispering coquettishly, her warm breath envelops him, making his heart roll like a raging fire, crackling and popping, with nowhere to extinguish.

"Just help me, I don't want my students' grades to suffer because of this."

Xiao Chen feels like he is undergoing a test. He concedes defeat with a sigh, "Fine, you got me."

Satisfied, Yu pats his cheek, "Go on then, pay more attention to him."

Just as she is about to get out of the car, her arm is grabbed by the person in the driver's seat, "What do you mean?"

"Hm?"

"Trying to get away after teasing me?" Playfulness colors his brow, "You don't even look at what you just touched."

"......"

Xiao Chen succinctly commands her: "Come to the back, keep me company."

Yu carefully probes: "Just talking right?"

"You want something else?"

"No!"

Sitting in the back seat, the sound of the car door closing coincides with the sound of her falling into Xiao Chen's arms.

"Ah!" She panics a little, "We're in the car."

"Don't worry," Xiao Chen reassures, nuzzling her soft hair, "one night not holding you to sleep, can't I hold you for a bit now?"

"......Oh."

Yu presses her cheek to his chest, greedily breathing in his scent, clearly feeling his heartbeat.

"Baby."

"Yeah."

"Again."

Yu: ?

"Or I'll get sick." Xiao Chen petitions with feigned pitifulness, "You're heartless enough to watch me get sick?"

"......" Yu thinks to herself, I brought this on myself, I'll endure it.

Her face is buried in Xiao Chen's firm pectorals, with only a thin T-shirt separating them. One of her hands clings onto his shoulder, disregarding his crumbling self-restraint.

Xiao Chen's arm wraps around her slender waist, restlessly roaming before finally settling in place, taking liberties to feel out the area he has kissed and been infatuated with beneath the fabric.

She is still playing with her favorite toy, her boyfriend's life and death of no concern to her.

"Hey." Xiao Chen issues a final warning as his reason teeters on the edge of collapse, "Are you forcing me to do it in the car, hmm?"
