125: Chapter 125: Only He Alone Enjoys 125: Chapter 125: Only He Alone Enjoys After entering the door, she found the living room lights on and thought it was Uncle Zhong who left them on for her.
She was a bit thirsty, changed her shoes, and went straight to the Central Island.
She poured herself half a glass of cold water and drank it all in one go.
Just as she finished drinking, an arm suddenly reached around her waist, she instinctively grabbed it, and before she could exert any strength, a warm heat source came from behind her.
Immediately after, a familiar and faint sandalwood fragrance enveloped her senses.
Jiang Yan circled her into his arms from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder.
“Why are you back so late?”
His husky and magnetic voice sounded in her ear.
Su He didn’t know he was back today.
The familiar and captivating voice of the man brought her back to her senses.
She asked, “When did you come back?”
“I’ve been home waiting for you for several hours,” the man’s voice was low, carrying a hint of grievance.
Su He was slightly stunned.
She explained, “That, I didn’t know you were coming back today.”
Jiang Yan’s side face intentionally or unintentionally brushed against her temple.
“How are you going to make it up to me?
Hm?” his voice was full of seduction.
Su He involuntarily let out an “ah” sound.
She slightly turned her head and said directly, “Why should I make it up?
You didn’t tell me you were coming back today.
If you had told me, I might have considered picking you up.
But you have a private driver, so there’s no need for me to do that.”
Jiang Yan was helpless, his wife was too straightforward.
Looking at her enticing red lips, he didn’t think twice, turned her face towards him, and kissed her directly.
Su He widened her eyes.
He really just kissed her without any forewarning.
After being away for a week, he thought of her day and night.
He wanted to hug her, sleep holding her, kiss her, and want even more.
Previously, he could control himself, but now, as soon as she was out of his sight, he couldn’t contain his longing for her.
His kiss was the same as before, sometimes gentle, sometimes assertive, but this time, it was tinged with urgency.
After a while, he let her go, perhaps worried that turning her head like that would make her neck uncomfortable.
Before she could react, her body spun around, her feet left the ground, and she was sitting on the Central Island.
The man stood between her legs, the posture extremely suggestive.
When she sat down, she was just a bit taller than him.
Jiang Yan slightly looked up, his black pupils filled with the vivid blush of the woman and a pair of dazzling bright eyes.
At this moment, she was unwittingly seductive.
His thin lips parted slightly, “These days, have you thought of me?
Hm?”
Upon hearing this, Su He blinked, feeling her heart race like a deer.
Looking into his burning eyes, it felt like there was a fire burning inside her, warm.
During his absence, her life was pretty much the same as usual, the only difference was that at night she always felt the space next to her was empty.
Does that count?
“I…”
She was about to speak, but the man in front of her didn’t give her the chance.
He cupped the back of her head and sealed her lips.
Jiang Yan didn’t know if he was afraid of hearing an answer he didn’t want to hear, but he admitted, at that moment, he chose to escape.
His tongue, soft as an arrow, pried open her teeth, suckling gently and carefully.
Then he tenderly twined around her tongue.
Su He’s mind went blank, her body shivered slightly, her hands unconsciously wrapped around his neck, and her eyelashes unconsciously became wet…
Late at night, the vast space was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.
At this moment, Su Yimo in the children’s room woke up thirsty from eating too many heavy-flavored snacks at the old house tonight.
Su He usually left a glass of water in his room, but she came back late tonight and forgot to tell Uncle Zhong.
The little guy woke up, saw no water in the cup, and decided to go downstairs to find water himself.
But as he came out of his room, he saw the lights in the hall were on.
He yawned, rubbed his eyes with his little hands, looked down from the railing, and saw no one in the hall.
He thought nothing of it and went downstairs, heading straight for the Central Island.
The next second, his tiny body froze in place.
His grape-like big eyes stared unblinkingly at the scene before him.
The passionately kissing couple was completely unaware of anyone’s arrival.
After a few seconds, Su Yimo immediately raised his hand to cover his face.
“Are you not ashamed?
Baby is still a child.”
A childlike voice broke the silence in the space, startling the two on the island.
They parted lips and turned their heads sharply to the side.
Seeing Su Yimo standing there, Su He only wanted to bury herself in a hole.
…
Jiang Yan, however, was poised, not at all embarrassed.
He looked at the little guy and asked, “Why did you wake up?”
Su Yimo peeked through his fingers, then slowly lowered his hand.
He blinked innocently and said, “I got thirsty and came down for water, I didn’t mean to interrupt.”
At last, he deliberately added one more sentence.
Su He: “…”
Jiang Yan let go of Su He and poured him a glass of water.
“Come and drink.”
The little guy responded with an “okay” and walked over with his short legs.
He held the glass with both hands and gulped down the water.
After finishing, he handed the glass back to the man and wiped the water stain from the corner of his mouth.
He looked at Su He and obediently said, “Mommy, baby won’t disturb you anymore.
Baby is going to sleep now; you two continue.”
Then, he looked at Jiang Yan, his tone not as gentle anymore: “Old Antique, you promised me, don’t go back on your word.”
Su He: “…”
After saying that, he turned around and left stylishly.
Although Su Yimo is young, there are still some things he knows a little bit about.
Thinking that he would soon have a baby sister made him very happy.
He quickly fell asleep when he lay back down on the bed and even had a smile on his lips.
Meanwhile, downstairs, the two who were interrupted by the little guy exchanged a glance.
Jiang Yan hooked the corner of his mouth wickedly and said, “Wife, shall we continue as our son suggested?”
Su He’s lips twitched, she leaned on one hand on the Central Island counter and leaped over.
Her legs were slightly weak at first, but the scare from Su Yimo suddenly sobered her up and she felt fine after a while.
She raised her head to brush away some stray hair from her forehead and glanced at him: “I’ll pass.
You can continue by yourself.”
After saying that, she swiftly left that awkward place.
Jiang Yan watched her escaping back with a doting smile flickering in his eyes.
After a while, he poured himself a glass of ice water to calm the inner heat.
–
The next morning.
When Su He woke up, there was no one beside her.
She reached out her hand and found no warmth in the bed; probably he had been up for quite a while.
Today is Saturday, no work.
She closed her eyes to sleep some more, but she couldn’t fall asleep despite not wanting to get up.
Suddenly, she felt like lazing in bed.
So, she just continued lying there.
Then, she picked up the mobile phone from the bedside table, adjusted to a comfortable position, and started browsing her phone.
While looking, a piece of entertainment news suddenly popped up on the phone screen.
The headline read: “The fourth young master of Yue City’s Gu Family and Miss Wen from H City are about to celebrate their upcoming joyful event!”
She clicked in and briefly browsed through the report.
It implied that the Gu Family was about to form a marital alliance with the Wen Family.
Gu Beiyan actually agreed to an alliance with the Wen Family, which surprised Su He.
Isn’t he an advocate for not marrying?
She took a screenshot of this gossip news and sent it to their group chat.
Oh, no, now it’s a six-person group.
Because Gu Qianqian and Sang Luo were added.
Gu Qianqian was added by Jiang You because they knew each other.
Sang Luo was added by her last night.
However, this early in the morning, probably nobody was awake yet, and she didn’t care much.
But the next second, Gu Qianqian and Jiang You responded.
Gu Qianqian first sent an angry emoji, then a fifteen-second voice message: “This is infuriating!
It’s a rumor; how could my uncle ever fancy someone with the Wen surname?
She’s totally not his type!
I better not find out who started this rumor!”
Jiang You, on the other hand, commented neutrally: “I remember Beiyan is against marriage, perhaps he’s had a change of heart recently?”
Jiang You and she had the same thought.
Su He replied: “Don’t know, but I don’t think he’d change.”
Then the three of them started chatting back and forth in the group.
However, most of the time it was Gu Qianqian continuously talking, so much so that even the usually talkative Jiang You couldn’t get a word in.
As the saying goes, there is always someone better.
Su He was lying on her side facing away from the door, utterly absorbed in her phone, she didn’t notice someone pushing the door open.
Jiang Yan had just returned from the gym, having already showered there.
Careful not to wake up Su He who he thought was still sleeping.
But unknown to him, she was already awake.
He stood by the edge of the bed, looking down at her lying in bed, holding the phone.
She was completely unaware of his presence.
This was not like her.
In his memory, Su He’s alertness was not low.
He gently moved closer, one long leg kneeling on the bed, one hand softly propping next to her pillow.
Su He felt the bed sink down and turned around.
Their eyes met.
Su He really hadn’t noticed his arrival, but when he approached the bed, a familiar, faint scent of sandalwood hit her.
She knew it was him, so she didn’t move.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have had no reaction at all.
“What are you doing?” Su He looked at his sneaky appearance and actions, her eyes slightly raised as she spoke: “You’re not trying to scare me, are you?”
Jiang Yan saw that her expression was calm, clearly not surprised.
“Do you know it’s me?”
Su He rolled her eyes: “In this place, apart from you, no one else dares to come in.”
Just as she finished speaking, the man moved closer, his arms propping up near her ears.
Su He instinctively pulled the blanket a bit.
To Jiang Yan, this action was a defense against him.
“Defending against me?
Hmm?”
His eyebrows slightly raised, his gaze intently fixed on her.
Su He grinned and said: “Mr.
Jiang, studies show that men have higher desires in the morning.
Are you sure you want to take two cold showers so early?”
After speaking, her gaze slightly drifted downward.
“…”
After Jiang Yan heard this, a cunning smile appeared within his deep dark pupils.
He also had a slight smile on his lips: “Apart from taking cold showers, and the most primitive method, the ancients invented many other solutions, just like…”
Su He narrowed her eyes, feeling that he wouldn’t say anything pleasant.
The man leaned close to her ear and whispered something.
After listening, her eyebrows immediately furrowed, her scalp tingled, her pupils dilated, and she looked at him incredulously.
“Hooligan, shameless!”
She frowned and glared at him, giving him four words.
The man laughed instead of being angry: “Mrs.
Jiang, I haven’t done anything, just kindly sharing some knowledge with you.”
What he said, she knew: “I don’t need your knowledge!”
The man’s lips curved up into a smile, “Why are your ears red?
Are you shy?
Don’t you always say you’re a doctor and these things are common for you?”
As soon as his words fell, Su He retorted: “It’s you who has red ears, your whole family has red ears!”
After saying that, she realized she had said something quite silly.
Jiang Yan watched her close her eyes in annoyance, chuckled softly, and even laughed out loud.
“Mrs.
Jiang, my whole family includes you too.”
His voice was low and magnetic, gentle, and the endnotes carried a low-tone bubble, making Su He’s ears feel soft.
Seeing her blushing, shy appearance, he felt even happier.
At least these expressions, only he could enjoy exclusively.
He lowered his head and kissed her lips.
The man just gently kissed without going deeper.
Su He, startled, pushed him away forcefully.
She covered her mouth with both hands, glaring at him, a face full of defense.
Jiang Yan said with amusement: “I don’t mind that you haven’t brushed your teeth.”
But Su He merely gave him a glare: “But I mind it myself.”
He reached out to rub her head, with a tone like coaxing a child: “Okay, I won’t tease you anymore, get up, wash up, and come down for breakfast.”
But Su He shook her head, “I don’t want to eat.”
The man frowned and then teased: “Or do you want to continue what we didn’t finish last night?
I’m very interested this morning and can help you complete the final step.”
She shook her head again.
Ten minutes later.
After she had washed up and changed into a black tight T-shirt and a pair of white casual pants.
The man had been sitting on the sofa waiting for her, and when she changed clothes, he stood up, took her hand, and went downstairs.
Su Yimo was already obediently sitting at the dining table, happily enjoying his own breakfast.
Hearing the footsteps, he finally looked up at the two tardy adults.
He blinked his bright shiny eyes, chewing on egg whites in his mouth, his childlike voice muffled: “Why did it take so long to call me?
Weren’t you guys upstairs making me a little sister?”
Su He had just sat down when she heard her son say this.
“Su Yimo, can nothing shut you up?” She glanced at the little guy across.
Lately, Su Yimo had been quite bold and wasn’t afraid of Su He using his full name anymore.
“Ah, mommy, baby is just concerned about you.”
“Are you sure you’re just concerned about me?
Hmm?” Su He looked at him disapprovingly: “It seems to me like you’re just blindly talking.”
While Su Yimo was chewing on his egg whites, he shook his head, “Mommy, I might not have spoken nonsense, baby is telling the absolute truth.”
Su He: “Alright, no talking while eating.
Be careful or you might choke.
I won’t save you.”
Su Yimo: “Okay, then I’ll talk after I finish eating.”
Listening to the mother and son bickering, Jiang Yan quietly peeled the eggshell off.
“Here, eat.”
Su He looked at the white egg in front of her, took a sip of warm milk, and picked up the peeled egg.
She quickly peeled off the yolk, leaving it on the plate, and ate the egg white, leaving the yolk.
Su Yimo’s plate also had a round yolk left over.
Mother and son shared a common hobby: eating eggs, only the whites, not the yolks.
Since she herself didn’t eat them, she couldn’t force Su Yimo to eat yolks either.
Soon, Su He skillfully pushed the plate with the yolks toward the man.
Seeing this, Su Yimo also pushed his yolks over.
“Go on, you should have more.”
Su Yimo echoed, “Hmm, mommy is right.”
“…”
Uncle Zhong, who was beside them, was already used to this scene.
Instead, he found it heartwarming.
Every time Master and Young Madam had breakfast together, this scene would play out.
And Jiang Yan never said anything, just accepted it as is.
“I’m curious, who used to eat the egg yolks you didn’t eat before?”
At the dining table, the man suddenly asked.
The mother and son looked at each other.
Su He tilted her head slightly and counter-questioned, “Do you really want to know?”
Before Jiang Yan could say something, Su He continued, “We used to feed them to stray dogs, after all, wasting food is shameful.”
Jiang Yan, “…”
After breakfast, Jiang Yan went to the study to start a video conference.
Even though he didn’t go to the office, he was never idle at home.
Meanwhile, Su He and Su Yimo were each doing their own thing downstairs.
Until half past ten.
Jiang Zhongzhen’s call came through.
Because she sent him a message last night, saying she had obtained the seal, and asked for the time and location to meet.
Just then, Jiang Yan came out of the study and went downstairs.
She answered Jiang Zhongzhen’s call openly.
“Hello.”
Jiang Zhongzhen on the other end stated the time and location for the meeting.
Su He responded with a smile, “Okay, Uncle, I got it.
See you later.”
After Jiang Yan came down, he sat next to her.
But he didn’t ask her anything.
Instead, she was the one who spoke up, “Aren’t you going to ask why Uncle wanted to meet me?”
Jiang Yan looked at her tenderly, “Haven’t you already arranged everything?”
She had already told him about the fake seal carving last night, so he naturally guessed it.
At two in the afternoon.
Su He drove to the meeting place designated by Jiang Zhongzhen.
Nanling Club.
This place is Yue City’s biggest golf course.
After Su He parked the car, she immediately spotted Luo Yong, Jiang Zhongzhen’s assistant, who was waiting not far away.
Luo Yong spoke respectfully, “Miss Su, please follow me, Chairman Jiang is already waiting for you.”
Su He smiled and nodded.
On the endless green lawn, only one person was swinging his club.
It seemed that this old guy had booked the entire place.
In the rest area, a man was sitting under a parasol.
Jiang Zhongzhen’s eldest son, Jiang Chao, Su He had seen him before.
Su He briefly greeted him.
Jiang Chao had seen Su He before.
Four years ago, at her and Jiang Yan’s wedding, he had seen her.
She indeed had a stunningly beautiful face, peerlessly and ethereally lovely, purifying the mortal world.
Seeing her reminded Jiang Chao of this line: With a glance she leaves a radiant trace, with a sigh she is fragrant like an orchid.
Her gaze was cold and her demeanor was distant, but there was an indescribable charm about her, even her breath carried a faint fragrance.
Su He did not sit down but stood at a distance from him.
She could feel Jiang Chao’s burning gaze, measuring her up.
If possible, she wouldn’t mind giving him a pair of black eyes.
But for now, she had to endure it.
Jiang Chao spoke, “Sister-in-law, have a seat, it’s tiring to stand.”
Upon hearing this, Su He calmly responded, “Sorry, big cousin, I have a cleanliness obsession with outdoor chairs, I’d rather stand.”
“…”
Luckily, Jiang Zhongzhen had finished playing as well.
She looked at him and complimented, “Uncle, you play quite well.”
Jiang Zhongzhen laughed heartily a few times, took a towel handed by his assistant, and wiped his hands.
“It’s been a while, I’m a bit rusty.”
After sitting down, he took a sip of water and then looked up at her.
“Did you bring the item?”
Su He looked at him calmly and nodded, “I brought it.”
In her heart, she lamented, ‘Old fox, not the least bit polite, so eager to get it.’
Su He smiled and said, “Uncle, I have got what you wanted, but…”
She paused slightly and fluttered her eyelids, “You must tell me what you want the seal for, or what your next few steps are.
I need to be fully informed just in case something goes wrong, I can handle it smoothly.
Otherwise, if there is a problem later, and you push all the responsibility onto me, then even jumping into the Yellow River wouldn’t wash me clean.”
Jiang Zhongzhen slightly narrowed his eyes, not expecting Su He to pull such a move.
Su He was straightforward, her words candid, “Uncle, I am risking a lot to help you, you must show sincerity and treat me with the utmost integrity.
All I want in return is some security.”
