Chapter 123 Just one kiss is enough



Chapter 123 Just one kiss is enough

Today was the day Zhu Tingyue returned to the Shen family home to report for duty. As soon as she entered the house, she saw Shen Yanzhen sitting on the sofa.

Seeing Zhu Tingyue enter, he stood up and thanked her, saying, "Thank you for today!"

Zhu Tingyue looked at him. Although he wasn't as haggard as he claimed, he wasn't in much better shape either.

He said there was no need to be polite, but secretly took out his phone and sent Chen Can a photo, just to show Chen Can his pathetic state!

Shen Yanzhen still felt bad, because their relationship wasn't actually that close.

Shen Yanzhen even punched Zhu Tingyue last time!

Zhu Tingyue didn't hold a grudge, which made Shen Yanzhen even more embarrassed.

Annoyed by his indecisive nature, Zhu Tingyue said simply, "It wasn't me who helped you, it was Chen Can! If you want to thank someone, go thank her!"

After saying that, she ignored his thoughts and went to eat.

Shen Yanzhen didn't come to eat, nor did Madam Shen, so Zhu Tingyue ate her fill all by herself.

Unable to bear the cold and deserted atmosphere at the Shen family home, Zhu Tingyue left after finishing her meal.

I'm going home to find Shen Yanqiu. I've missed him all day!

Shen Yanqiu was surprised by Zhu Tingyue's sudden return.

"Why are you back? Weren't you going back to the Shen family?"

Zhu Tingyue pinched the soft flesh of his cheek, which was nurtured by Zhu's mother and felt extremely comfortable to touch.

"This is my home, can't I come back?"

Shen Yanqiu let her pinch her, and it didn't hurt. Moreover, she only pinched herself and not others. Isn't that favoritism?

"No, haven't you heard the saying? You can go home, but you can't just suddenly go back!"

Shen Yanqiu stared at her with her bright eyes and uttered a sentence.

This?

Zhu Tingyue realized what was happening and tightened her grip: "Shen Yanqiu, you've got some nerve! You dare to cuckold me!"

"Ouch, ouch, ouch!" Shen Yanqiu cried out with a laugh.

Zhu Tingyue knew her own strength best; with so little strength, how could she possibly feel pain? Shen Yanqiu was becoming more and more spoiled by her mother!

"Zhu Tingyue! Let go!"

Zhu Tingyue instinctively let go when her mother shouted.

However, the red mark on Shen Yanqiu's face was very obvious no matter how you looked at it.

Feeling guilty, Zhu Tingyue whispered in Shen Yanqiu's ear, "Turn your head, don't let Mom see!"

Shen Yanqiu refused, tilting her face up to the light, making the red mark even more obvious under the illumination.

Zhu Tingyue gritted her teeth in anger and gave Shen Yanqiu a quick kiss on the cheek.

Shen Yanqiu immediately turned her face away and pinched it again with her own hand. When Mother Zhu came to the two of them, she only saw the red mark left by Shen Yanqiu's hand.

After glaring at her daughter, Zhu's mother turned and left.

Zhu Tingyue felt a pang of heartache when she saw the mark on Shen Yanqiu's face turn even redder.

"I'll give you a good night's sleep!"

Her coaxing words, like those used to soothe a child, displeased Shen Yanqiu: "One more kiss and it won't hurt anymore!"

He wasn't much better off!

Zhu Tingyue glanced at her mother's figure and said, "No, Mom will come and hit me!"

"Humph!"

Shen Yanqiu turned and left, muttering, "If you don't love me, you don't love me. You don't even care that I'm in pain. I might as well die from the pain!"

He bent down, picked up September from beside his feet, and strode away.

September is now very attached to him and won't leave his side for a moment, while Zhu Tingyue, its true master, is not favored by it.

Zhu Tingyue, who was disliked by the man and the cat, automatically followed along. If she didn't explain things clearly tonight, Shen Yanqiu would stay angry.

He not only adapted to Zhu Tingyue's body, but also learned the ability to bring up old grievances, which Zhu Tingyue did not possess!

Shen Yanqiu was sulking alone on the sofa when Zhu Tingyue came in and left the door slightly ajar.

How about this: Zhu's mother won't allow her to get close to Shen Yanqiu at night!

"Okay, okay, I apologize. I'm sorry, I was wrong! Zhu Tingyue shouldn't have refused Shen Yanqiu's kiss. Can we kiss now?"

Zhu Tingyue blinked her long, narrow eyes at Shen Yanqiu, her gaze filled with anticipation.

Shen Yanqiu glanced at it once and then turned her head away. Hmph, I don't care!

If gentle persuasion doesn't work, he resorts to force; every time, it's Zhu Tingyue who makes him calm down after kissing him.

A warm kiss enveloped Shen Yanqiu, the unique scent of Zhu Tingyue covering his lips. His earlier bravado vanished without a trace, and he closed his eyes to enjoy Zhu Tingyue's kiss.

With their noses touching, Zhu Tingyue looked at the flawless face so close to hers and felt proud. She unconsciously tightened her grip until Shen Yanqiu was almost out of breath before she finally let go.

"Zhu Tingyue, you're a scoundrel!" Shen Yanqiu added with a habitual phrase.

Zhu Tingyue chimed in, "I'm only a rogue to you!"

Shen Yanqiu fell silent.

He could never win an argument with Zhu Tingyue, nor did he have her thick skin. In the past, Zhu Tingyue always won such conversations, and today was no exception.

"Hehe, not going to tell me? I'll teach you!" Zhu Tingyue teased him.

Shen Yanqiu turned away, ignoring her. He claimed to be teaching him, but wasn't he just deliberately making fun of him every time? He wouldn't fall for it again!

Zhu Tingyue didn't get a reply, so she placed her hand on Shen Yanqiu's stomach and gently stroked it, as if sighing, "Child, what should I do if your mother is angry? I can't coax him. Please come out and help me coax him!"

Shen Yanqiu corrected her wording: "It's Dad!"

"Dad is fine too, since dads can have babies too!" Zhu Tingyue quickly changed her mind.

"I gave birth to them, so of course they have to call me Dad! And Mom too!" Shen Yanqiu argued forcefully.

"Alright, once he's born, I'll tell him he's asexual, and both his parents are the same person!"

"Zhu Tingyue!"

That voice sounded a lot like Mother Zhu's. It has to be said that Shen Yanqiu had lived with Mother Zhu for a long time and had learned about 80-90% of her mannerisms and tone of voice.

"Hey, I'm here!" Zhu Tingyue ignored his shouts and leaned against Shen Yanqiu.

"Shen Yanqiu, I'm a little tired! Let me lean on you for a bit!" Zhu Tingyue said weakly.

Shen Yanqiu immediately softened his body and straightened Zhu Tingyue in his arms to make her more comfortable.

He asked her softly, "Is work tiring? Tell Shen Yingchu you're quitting, let him worry about it himself!"

Zhu Tingyue smiled and said, "It's alright, it's just that I think about you every day, and I can't even finish my work!"

Well, he never says a serious word all day long!

"Then stay home and keep me company! We're rich anyway!"

He was very confident, which made Zhu Tingyue suspicious.

"Where did you get the money?"

Shen Yanqiu stated frankly, "I asked Shen Yingchu for them! Several properties in the city center, a few hotels and small shops under the Shen family's ownership, and some other miscellaneous items, I don't remember them all!"

Zhu Tingyue had no idea about this. She thought Shen Yanqiu was keeping quiet and being bullied in the Shen family!

"When? I've never heard you mention it!"

Shen Yanqiu scratched his head and tied up Zhu Tingyue's original long hair, leaving only a few stray hairs around her ears.

From Zhu Tingyue's perspective, it added a touch of tenderness. Was she like this before?

"Not long ago, it was the night you and Shen Yanzhen discussed your engagement, wasn't it!"

It hasn't been that long?
