Chapter 200: Chapter 195: The Male Supporting Character Isn’t an Idiot
"Thank you." Leng Junxuan’s eyes burned with intensity as he looked at Su Ruoxi, his voice low and magnetic.
Su Ruoxi’s cheeks turned red, looking at the man’s tall frame curled up on her short and narrow bed, feeling both sweet and embarrassed: "You don’t have to thank me, you’ve also helped me out twice before, saving you is the right thing to do, we are even now."
Leng Junxuan chuckled softly, his sharp eyebrows softening: "My life isn’t worth so little."
Su Ruoxi’s heart nearly melted at the sound of his laughter, the strong masculine scent filled the small space, making her heartbeat race.
"The porridge should be ready soon, I’ll go check on it." Saying that, she hurriedly ran out of the room.
Behind her, Leng Junxuan’s deep and joyful laughter followed, making Su Ruoxi unable to help but smile as well.
Mrs. Su watched her daughter, who was falling into love, and then glanced at the mysterious man in her daughter’s room, and sighed softly.
"I heard that the boy from the Leng Family has been found." Weekends are family gathering times at the Ye Family, and there’s no rule of silence during meals at the Ye residence, so the atmosphere at the dinner table is always relaxed. Ye Yanming, the Ye Family’s eldest uncle, also took the chance to bring up the topic everyone was most interested in recently.
Ye Shuyao pricked up her ears when she heard about Leng Junxuan’s situation, a habitual reaction. Ye Qiu observed his sister’s expression and noticed it was merely curiosity, nodding inwardly. Based on the current storyline, it seemed Leng Junxuan had already developed feelings for the female lead Su Ruoxi, and he definitely did not want his sister to become cannon fodder between the male and female leads.
"Yes, I went to visit him at the hospital yesterday. The doctor said his wounds have almost healed," Ye Qiu answered.
Eldest Aunt Zhong Jing frowned at this, puzzled, "I heard he returned the day before yesterday, and since his wounds have healed, it shouldn’t be a big deal. The Leng Family has been quite anxious these days, hasn’t he thought to call his family to reassure them?"
Zhong Yanjing, who is Ye Qiu and Ye Shuyao’s father, shook his head: "This Leng Junxuan’s handling of the matter isn’t great. The Leng Family has been searching for him all over the Capital. With his capabilities, unless he intended to hide, it would be impossible not to contact the Leng Family."
At that moment, Ye Qiu chuckled lightly, clarifying for the puzzled family members, "When I was at the hospital yesterday, there was a woman by his side, and they seemed quite close."
"So what you’re saying is that he deliberately didn’t contact his family and team because of a woman?" Ye Qiu’s mother Shen Yuan asked, frowning slightly.
"I’ve seen that woman twice before, I think she works as a waitress in a restaurant," Ye Qiu said nonchalantly.
"Then I have a guess," Eldest Aunt Zhong Jing shook her head and smiled wryly. "Leng Junxuan’s mother is extremely concerned with appearances, always believing no one is good enough for her son, and would definitely not welcome a girl with no family background into their home. The boy from the Leng Family probably foresaw this and so had the girl appear before the Leng Family as a lifesaver."
Shen Yuan felt that what Leng Junxuan did was not very honorable. Even if his mother was picky, he shouldn’t risk his own life; she heard that his surgery was done in an unlicensed clinic and that he disappeared for more than ten days for no reason. The Leng Family had not had an easy time these days. And did he really think that the girl, appearing as his lifesaver, would be treated well by the Leng Family?
At this thought, she recalled her daughter’s past connection with the young man of the Leng Family and earnestly advised her daughter: "Shuyao, from this incident, it’s clear that Leng Junxuan is not a suitable match, and moreover, he now has someone he’s fond of. In the future, stay away from him."
Ye Shuyao had already been successfully brainwashed by her second brother recently, and now seeing Leng Junxuan acting foolishly for a waitress with no status or background, she thought even more that something was wrong with his head. Her goal had now changed; the husband she would look for in the future would have to meet the standards of her second brother.
Therefore, she wholeheartedly nodded to her mother’s advice: "Mom, don’t worry, I don’t like guys like him anyway. Even if I were to find a boyfriend, I’d have to find someone like my second brother."
Eldest Aunt Zhong Jing laughed out loud upon hearing this: "Shuyao is right, but it’s really hard to find another person like your second brother in this world."
"If I can’t find one, then I simply won’t get married," Ye Shuyao said petulantly. ƒrēenovelkiss.com
Shen Yuan tapped her daughter’s hand with her chopsticks, chiding her with a smile: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
But then she looked at her son and felt that in all his years, her son had never given her any worries. Even though he was particularly good to his fiancée, he never forgot about his family when it came to nice things. As long as her son was well, she was willing to put aside that tiny bit of jealousy she felt towards her daughter-in-law.
Besides, her son’s fiancée, Zhong Meiying, not only came from an equally impressive family background, but she was also faultless as a person. She was beautiful with great academic accomplishments, kind, and capable. All she hoped for now was for the two to get married soon and give her a grandson to dote on.
"When does Xiaoqiu plan to marry Meiying?" Eldest Aunt Zhong Jing asked. She was especially happy about this couple since one was her husband’s family’s nephew, and the other was her own family’s niece.
Ye Qiu chuckled lightly: "It’s already in the planning stages, but Eldest Aunt, don’t tell Meiying. She doesn’t know about my proposal plans yet."
"Good, good, good, I won’t tell her." Upon hearing that Ye Qiu already had plans, the whole family was overjoyed, especially Old Master Ye. His eldest grandson was always at the military base and rarely came home, not even a female mosquito buzzed around him; it was the second grandson who was sensible, arranging his affairs early and neatly.
Ye Qiu and his fiancée were currently deeply in love, and he had indeed been pondering their marriage. Although he and Meiying had been engaged for over a year, they were still living separately. Even the most intimate of interactions were just tender kisses, and he was uncertain about Meiying’s feelings.
On Sunday, their rare day off, Ye Qiu invited Zhong Meiying to his apartment in the city center for a candlelight dinner he had prepared for her himself.
"Did you make this?" Zhong Meiying asked expectantly, her beautiful eyes glistening under the light.
"Try it." Ye Qiu painstakingly cut the steak for her, then used a fork to bring a piece of the beef to her lips.
Such intimate moments were rare for them, but Zhong Meiying still opened her mouth shyly.
"It’s delicious." Zhong Meiying smiled sweetly.
"Try this wine too. A client gave it to me, it’s said to be very popular." Ye Qiu poured two glasses, but as he handed one to Zhong Meiying, he ended up winding his arm around her, and they formed a posture akin to sharing a wedding cup. Ye Qiu gazed at his fiancée with deep affection.
It was hard to resist such a gentle Ye Qiu, and before she knew it, Zhong Meiying had drunk the entire glass.
After three rounds of drinks, Zhong Meiying, feeling fuzzy, was pulled by Ye Qiu to the window to look at the night view. With her fiancé’s broad, warm chest behind her, Zhong Meiying felt even more intoxicated — otherwise, how could her heart be throbbing so fast!
