Chapter 50 The Madness of Parting

After having dinner at a random place, Meng Jie dropped Su Yuxuan off at the entrance of her residential compound.

The streetlights cast a dim yellow glow. The girl stood by the roadside, suddenly becoming a little shy, her toes lightly rubbing against the ground.

Meng Jie asked with a smile, "Aren't you going in yet?"

Su Yuxuan raised her head, her eyes flickering slightly, and mustered her courage to ask, "What do you think of me?"

She appears quiet and ladylike, but is actually quite quirky and clever at heart. She has her own ideas and bottom line and is not easily swayed by others.

Meng Jie said in a relaxed tone, with a hint of appreciation, "She's a very cute little girl."

Receiving positive feedback, Su Yuxuan smiled and nodded, "You're not bad either!"

"Great, let's call him Brother Jie!"

Meng Jie chuckled and teased, "I'll protect you from now on!"

Not receiving a clear response, Su Yuxuan felt a little disappointed, but still called out, "Brother Jie!"

"Go inside quickly."

Meng Jie smiled and waved, "It's getting late, I have to go back too."

Su Yuxuan suddenly asked, "Brother Jie, do you play games?"

"I play this occasionally when I'm bored."

Meng Jie nodded: "Play Honor of Kings, play PUBG, play League of Legends."

Su Yuxuan smiled and said, "I also play Honor of Kings. Let's play together sometime!"

"Uh-huh."

Meng Jie smiled and nodded: "I'll call you when I'm playing."

He spends a lot of time playing games and is quite skilled at them, but he mainly does it to entertain clients.

Customers have all sorts of hobbies: foot massage, singing, fishing, playing games...

He has no excuses when it comes to what the customer needs.

After watching the girl skip and hop into the residential area, Meng Jie hailed a taxi and returned to his hotel.

……

When Su Yuxuan got home, she had just changed her shoes when she saw her second uncle Su Hong, her second aunt Peng Xiaoqin, and her cousin Su Ming sitting on the sofa in the living room.

She greeted them softly: "Second Uncle, Second Aunt, Mingming."

As soon as his cousin returned from her blind date, Su Ming immediately sidled up to her, winking and asking with a gossipy grin, "Sis, how was your husband? Was he handsome?"

In front of her elders, Su Yuxuan instantly suppressed her liveliness in front of Meng Jie and reverted to her obedient and quiet demeanor: "Don't call me that, what brother-in-law?"

"My mom told me that you and your brother-in-law went out for the afternoon."

Su Ming persisted, "It's already past seven o'clock, we should be having dinner together by now."

Su Yuxuan didn't want to continue the topic, so she quickly changed the subject: "Second Uncle and Second Aunt, have you eaten yet?"

We just ate.

Peng Xiaoqin smiled and nodded: "How are things going between you and Meng Jie?"

Faced with her elders' persistent questioning, Su Yuxuan's lips moved, but in the end she only sighed softly.

The sigh, coupled with her hesitant expression, immediately made Su Hong frown: "What's wrong? Did he bully you, or did you not like him?"

The details were too complicated to explain, so Su Yuxuan could only offer a helpless conclusion: "He and I... are good friends now."

"good friend?"

Peng Xiaoqin frowned slightly, and the smile on her face faded a bit. "You two have become friends?"

Su Yuxuan nodded: "Mm!"

"You, you."

Looking at her niece who was unwilling to say more, Peng Xiaoqin shook her head helplessly: "You just don't know what's good for you. Your aunt found you such a good boyfriend, and you don't even like him."

"It's not a good thing to just bury yourself in books at school and not engage with society."

Looking at her son, she said, "From now on, take one day off every Saturday and Sunday to do a part-time job and experience firsthand how tough life is."

"what?"

Su Ming, who had been watching the drama unfold, suddenly looked dejected and let out a wail: "I still need to play basketball!"

"That's settled then."

Peng Xiaoqin said without room for argument, "I'll find you a place then."

Listening to her second aunt scolding her cousin, Su Yuxuan felt a tightness in her chest and a strange feeling in her heart.

How did she know that Meng Jie wasn't what he seemed on the surface?

He may say he's vengeful, but he's actually humorous, witty, and ambitious.

But it's already like this, and I've already said I don't like it.

She can't very well go back on her word and lose all sense of shame, can she?

……

Meanwhile, Meng Jie took a taxi back to the hotel.

Song Yike was lying in bed playing on her phone when she heard the door open. She immediately ran barefoot over, threw herself into her boyfriend's arms, and sweetly called out, "Honey!"

Meng Jie smiled and put his arm around the person, asking in a low voice, "Have you eaten?"

"I've already eaten." Song Yike tilted her head back, her eyes sparkling.

Meng Jie held her hand, his fingertips gently stroking the back of her hand: "Have you missed me?"

Song Yike tiptoed and kissed him on the lips: "I missed you."

Meng Jie bent down, scooped her up in his arms, and strode towards the bedroom: "I missed you too."

……

I spent several nights in a row at the Emperor's Club. Although the system rewarded me quite a bit, I was eventually tired and a bit annoyed.

He didn't want to go anywhere tonight; he just wanted to stay in the hotel and rest peacefully.

Song Yike nestled in his arms like a docile kitten, her voice soft and sweet: "Honey, I'm going back tomorrow."

Meng Jie gave a soft "hmm".

Song Yike looked up at the man and asked, "Will you miss me?"

"Yes." Meng Jie gently patted her smooth back.

"So what will you think of me?" she asked, pouting.

Meng Jie looked down at her with a smile and asked, "What do you want me to think of you?"

Song Yike stretched out her finger and slowly drew small circles on his chest, her voice carrying a hint of coquettish affection: "I want to... stay with you all night..."

Meng Jie shook his head and refused: "You're going back tomorrow, it's not like we won't see each other again."

The girl hadn't experienced hardship and spoke without thinking.

If they really stay out all night, neither of them will be able to go out normally tomorrow.

Song Yike raised her hand and gently shook her five fingers: "This number?"

Meng Jie pressed down three fingers: "Don't be so playful, your body can't handle it!"

Song Yike pouted: "I think it's fine!"

Meng Jie chuckled: "I wonder who begged for mercy and then slept like a log?"

"I was just sleepy!"

Song Yike remained defiant, and before he could say anything more, she plopped down on his stomach, giggling as she shouted, "Giddy up—"

……

When I woke up, it was already bright outside the window.

Perhaps because they were about to be separated, Song Yike was unusually clingy last night, even hugging him tightly in her sleep, her arms wrapped around him tightly.

Meng Jie pried the girl's arms off and then went to the bathroom to wash up.

When he returned, the girl was already awake and staring at him intently.

Meng Jie asked with a smile, "Do you want to sleep a little longer?"

Song Yike shook her head, crawled over from the other side of the bed, and hugged his waist tightly, her voice trembling with tears: "Husband, I missed you so much..."

The girl's sudden affection softened Meng Jie's heart. He gently patted her back to comfort her, "Be good, listen to me, you'll be back in a few days."

"Um."

Song Yike nodded with red eyes: "I just miss you, I can't bear to part with you."

"Then you'd better get up quickly."

Meng Jie chuckled and patted her on the bottom: "I'll put you in the car; I still have errands to run."

Song Yike looked up and asked curiously, "What are you going to do?"

Meng Jie casually said, "Go to the bank and raise the transfer limit on my bank card."

"You can do it online, no need to go to the bank."

Song Yike laughed and said, "My dad did it before too."

Of course, Meng Jie couldn't say that he was looking for opportunities to show off anytime, anywhere, so he just made up a reason: "I'm going to get to know their staff offline, maybe I'll need it in the future."
