Chapter 392: Chapter 188: Don’t Be Angry Yet, We’ll Talk About It Later...
First dinner, then you’re dessert!
A two-course meal.
Since they were at her place, they kept things casual. After a few glasses of wine, Xu Yun made his move.
He pushed the dinner plates aside to clear a space, then stood, lifted Su Mu, and set her down on the table.
’Time for the main course!’
Seeing this, Su Mu blushed and said, "Xu Yun, what are you doing? I’m still eating."
"Stop eating. You don’t want to get fat."
"Well, at least let me take a shower and change first."
"No need. I don’t mind."
Xu Yun grinned. "After we finish our ’pre-game warm-up,’ I’ll join you in the shower."
Su Mu was speechless.
Since it was a "warm-up" meant to get the body moving, they skipped the preliminaries and got right to it.
He used an ultra-thin 0.01.
Xu Yun simply wanted to see if the ads were true or just exaggerations.
Just as the two of them were getting into the thick of it, the doorbell rang.
It was Yu Xuan and Ning Qian from next door. They had finished cooking and wanted to invite Su Mu over to eat with them.
Hearing the doorbell, the two of them slowed their movements.
Su Mu bit her lip, trying her best not to make a sound, lest the people outside realize she was home.
The doorbell stopped, and she thought they had given up. But a second later, her phone started ringing.
Su Mu had no intention of answering, but Xu Yun, as a prank, suddenly grabbed the phone and answered it for her.
He even deliberately put it on speaker.
"Hello, Sister Su."
Since it was after hours, Ning Qian didn’t use her formal title. She asked with a smile, "Are you still at the office working overtime?"
"Yeah, I am," Su Mu said, doing her best to keep her voice steady despite the discomfort.
"When will you be back, then? Yu Xuan and I made some food. We can wait for you if you want to eat with us."
"No, it’s fine. I’m busy right now..."
Su Mu was about to refuse, but Xu Yun, who was behind her, did something mischievous, causing her to lose her composure and let out a soft moan. "Ah~"
???
Ning Qian paused, concerned. "Sister Su, what’s wrong?" she asked over the phone.
"N-nothing’s wrong."
Flustered and angry, Su Mu turned and grabbed Xu Yun to stop him from causing more trouble. Only then did she continue speaking.
"I was just making some coffee and splashed a little hot water on myself. You two go ahead and eat. Don’t wait for me. I’ll grab a bite outside before I head back."
"Okay."
After Ning Qian hung up, Yu Xuan came out and asked, "Is Sister Su coming back to eat with us?"
"She’s not. Let’s just eat by ourselves."
Ning Qian thought about the strange sound Su Mu had made. "Yu Xuan," she asked curiously, "where is Xu Yun right now?"
"I don’t know. He didn’t tell me."
Yu Xuan said, "I’ve been busy with other things the past couple of days, so I haven’t really been in touch with him."
"Oh."
Yu Xuan asked, puzzled, "Why do you ask all of a sudden?"
"No reason, just asking."
Ning Qian said as she helped carry the bowls to the table, "I feel like I haven’t seen him in days. I just thought you might know where he is."
「In the apartment next door.」
Once Ning Qian finally hung up, Su Mu let go of Xu Yun. "I was almost caught," she said, mortified.
"But you weren’t, were you?"
But he couldn’t be blamed for that.
Considering Su Mu’s safety, he was perfectly willing to use protection; he wasn’t against it.
But after they’d used one once, Su Mu had forbidden it.
That "ultra-thin 0.01, feels like nothing’s there" was pure bullshit. The difference in sensation with and without it was huge.
She didn’t like it!
Besides, it was her safe period, so there shouldn’t be any problems.
So, at Su Mu’s insistence, Xu Yun took off the "equipment." Everything was simplified, returning to its natural state.
"Xu Yun."
Su Mu asked tentatively, "What if... what if I accidentally get pregnant one day?"
"It would be up to you."
Xu Yun answered without a moment’s hesitation. "Whether you have it or not, the choice would be yours."
"It’s your own child. Could you really bear to let it go?"
"If you, the mother, could bear it, why couldn’t I?"
Xu Yun smiled. "A child who isn’t wanted by their mother is better off not being born at all."
"You’re so cruel."
"Not as cruel as you, being willing to give up your own child."
"Don’t worry, I was just asking."
Su Mu said, "Until our relationship is officially defined, I’ll take care of the precautions myself. I don’t want to cause trouble for you, or for me."
Xu Yun was speechless.
’Why are all the women around me so damn sensible?’
He suddenly had a perverse thought. What if one or two of them were super jealous, unreasonable, and got into a fight over him being with other women?
Xu Yun knew this line of thinking was a bit twisted. It was a classic case of having it too good for too long and wanting to stir up some drama.
「The next morning.」
Xu Yun was still sound asleep.
After Su Mu got ready, she opened her door to leave for work and ran into Ning Qian and Yu Xuan, who were just coming out of the apartment next door.
"Sister Su, good morning."
Ning Qian greeted her first, asking with a smile, "What time did you get back last night?"
"Pretty late."
Su Mu said, "Oh, by the way, it’s my treat today. Let’s all go out for dinner after work."
"Okay, Sister Su," Yu Xuan replied.
’As his secretary, she had memorized the birthdays of all the women in Xu Yun’s life.’
’When Su Mu offered to treat them to dinner, Yu Xuan mentally reviewed her birthday.’
’It seemed to be today.’
After agreeing, Yu Xuan began to wonder if she should send her boss a message later to remind him about it.
The three of them went to the garage together. Ning Qian and Su Mu were heading to the office.
Yu Xuan was going to continue handling the final details for the charity foundation. On the way, she also needed to pick up a woman named Jiang Peiyao.
She was the person who would be in charge of managing the foundation.
