Chapter 266: 187 Come back home with me, Fourth Master turns into a scumbag [Prize Quiz]_2

“You…” Remembering her child was still in the bedroom, Shen Zhixian was suddenly unable to piece together her words, gasping for air as if she could faint at any moment.

“If you don’t want to miss out, stay by my side, okay?”

His voice was low and magnetically pleasant, and the music inside her ears was soothing, yet his few words felt like a violent strike to her eardrums.

The side of her face that his breath had caressed suddenly felt as hot as fire.

But it seemed he didn’t want to let her go, pinching her chin and forcing her to face him directly, leaning down slightly and moving closer…

“Jiang Yanting, you…”

“If you kept me here, you should have known what would happen.”

Shen Zhixian naturally knew this, as his intentions were not mere drunkenness. Yet, she desperately wanted to see Jiangjiang’s pictures, weighing both options and ultimately compromising.

“Jiangjiang is still inside.”

“Would it be alright if he weren’t?”

“…”

“He’s asleep, we can ignore that.”

Jiangjiang: “…”

Jiang Yanting saw her eyes flickering with nerves; she didn’t dare to make any significant movements to refuse. Instead, he smiled with pursed lips and tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear, “Come home with me another day.”

His tone was low, talking about meeting parents so casually.

“Go home?” Shen Zhixian’s breath deepened, irrelevant to age or experience, anytime this was mentioned, if you cared about the person, how could you not be nervous?

The area by her ear, where he had brushed through her hair, felt warm; however, Shen Zhixian’s heart felt even more chaotic at the moment.

“Mm, my grandmother, parents, you haven’t met them, and they haven’t seen you or known you; they aren’t reassured to entrust Jiangjiang to you. Meeting them, at least, would mean that you could see Jiangjiang whenever you wish to visit our home.”

Jiang Yanting understood exactly what she needed…

Shen Zhixian felt their relationship was complicated. She didn’t know how to face the Jiang Family or explain her relationship with Jiang Yanting. Yet, the mention of Jiangjiang still moved her heart.

Feeling somewhat chaotic inside, Shen Zhixian subconsciously bit her lip while Jiang Yanting’s gaze landed on the corner of her lips, his throat moving slightly as he kept his eyes on her.

At this late hour, the ambiance between a man and a woman alone carried added intimacy…

What to do, she couldn’t control herself, looking at him…

She wanted to kiss.

Shen Zhixian’s mind was somewhat muddled; however, no matter how far she and Jiang Yanting went in the future, her relationship with Jiangjiang couldn’t change; she must face the Jiang Family.

“Having met them, then should I…” She glanced up, only to find him already bowing his head…

Shen Zhixian’s heart pounded wildly, feeling incredibly embarrassed.

But Jiang Yanting wasn’t the type to take an inch and ask for a mile. In fact, Shen Zhixian had experienced great highs and lows today, which he had exploited, but he knew when to stop.

“Actually, even if you don’t meet them now, with the upcoming Chinese New Year and given my grandmother and mother’s characters, knowing we spent the night together, they would certainly find ways to see you.”

“I’ll think about it,” Shen Zhixian needed to prepare.

“Okay.”

…

Jiang Yanting’s computer contained countless pictures, and Shen Zhixian ended up viewing them until past three in the morning, not feeling sleepy at all. Eventually, Jiang Yanting insisted, concerned that if she fell ill, Jiangjiang might get scared. She had no choice but to return to bed.

The bed was only a small single one, with Jiangjiang lying atop the quilt in a slanted position, taking up most of the space; this sleeping posture…

It looked really bad.

Shen Zhixian frowned, wondering after whom this child took.

The next morning

When Jiangjiang woke up, Shen Zhixian had already prepared breakfast, saying she had something urgent and couldn’t stay with Jiangjiang.

“You’re leaving?” When Jiangjiang heard this, the sweet pumpkin porridge in front of him suddenly tasted bland.

Seeing his face fall, Shen Zhixian couldn’t take it, “No, I just have some work to deal with and will be away for two days, but I’ll be back soon, and I’ll come see you first thing, okay?”

“Two days?” Jiangjiang frowned, feeling that was quite long.

“It’ll be quick, I’ll definitely come back. If you miss me, you can call or video me anytime!”
