Mr. Lu, Mr. Su is being coquettish again!

Su Nanqin rarely stared blankly in front of Lu Fang.

Lu Fang thought the other person was deliberately being stubborn, so he raised his hand and tapped the other person on the forehead, then said with a stern face, "Did you hear what I said?"

Su Nanqin winced in pain and leaned back, raising her hand to cover the spot where Lu Fang had hit her. Only her eyes were visible as she looked pitifully at Lu Fang: "Don't you want me anymore?"

Lu Fang had no idea where this person got so many strange ideas from, saying whatever came to mind.

Just because I went on a business trip without him, it's now considered that I don't want him anymore.

"Hmm. You're disobedient." Lu Fang pretended to be serious, going along with his words.

Su Nanqin sat in Lu Fang's lap, the dim yellow light beside him reflecting on his face, making him look even more obedient.

With a wronged expression, he stared at Lu Fang seriously for a long time, as if he was really trying to determine whether Lu Fang's words were true or false.

Su Nanqin didn't like hearing others say they didn't want him.

He didn't like it... it felt like being abandoned.

Lu Fang was just teasing him, going along with what he said, and also teaching him a lesson.

But what was said unintentionally was taken seriously by the listener.

After a while, Su Nanqin seemed to be unable to hold back any longer and suddenly stepped forward and hugged Lu Fang's waist tightly with both hands.

Then she buried her head in the other person's chest, her head limp and powerless.

From Lu Fang's angle, all he could see was the furry head buried in his chest.

Then he heard Su Nanqin's muffled voice coming from his chest, sticky and aggrieved: "I'll be good, Lu Fang... I won't go... Please don't leave me..."

His biggest fear was that Lu Fang would reject him.

Lu Fang's heart skipped a beat. He had thought Su Nanqin was just being stubborn because she didn't want him to leave.

Su Nanqin's outburst gave Lu Fang a sudden, unsettling feeling that he might actually be abandoning her.

After saying that, Su Nanqin stopped moving and buried her head hard in Lu Fang's waist.

Like a kitten that's really about to be abandoned.

The hand around Lu Fang's waist tightened more and more, as if the other person would disappear at any moment.

Lu Fang looked at the head buried in his chest and wanted to say, "I didn't abandon you."

Finally, after a moment's hesitation, he gently patted the other person on the back.

He didn't understand Su Nanqin's intense anxiety about gains and losses and the other party's subtle extreme obsession.

It's as if if Lu Fang didn't want him, he would truly have nothing left.

Su Nanqin was engrossed in his own world, and he couldn't bear to disturb him.

Su Nanqin cried very quietly, almost without even a sob.

Lu Fang felt oppressed. Silence represented oppression.

After a long while, Lu Fang felt that his clothes were soaked, so he gently raised his hand to hold Su Nanqin's face and turned him up.

Her voice softened and slowed, as if she were genuinely afraid of startling the kitten in her arms who was crying pitifully with its head buried in its chest.

He gently put one arm around the other's lower back and used his fingertips to wipe away the tears from the corners of the other's eyes, his tone unusually gentle: "Why does my little kitten cry so much? It always breaks my heart."

Tears kept falling, no matter how much I wiped them away.

Just after wiping it off, it started to fall off again, and Lu Fang patiently and gently brushed it off for him.

After wiping it countless times without getting tired of it, Su Nanqin finally calmed down a little.

Lu Fang gently wiped away the last tear with his hand, then hugged him and bounced him gently, saying softly, "Okay, don't cry. It's just a business trip, how does that mean I don't want you anymore? Hmm? If you keep crying, I'll start to think I really don't want you anymore."

Su Nanqin was crying so hard she could barely breathe. She took a deep breath, and when she heard Lu Fang say that, she looked at him expectantly again.

Su Nanqin seemed not to believe it, and suddenly hugged the other person with both hands and pressed his head against it.

A clingy and sensitive kitten.

This made Lu Fang feel both heartache and weakness: "Okay, stop crying. You've softened my heart. I don't want you, I don't want Nan Nan..."

He patted the other person on the back while gently comforting him.

Su Nanqin was like a stray kitten, pitifully nestled in the other person's arms.

Drawing on the warmth that belongs to Lu Fang.

After a long while, he heard Su Nanqin murmur in his arms, "No...they all don't want me...I was being very good..."

Lu Fang looked down at him, while Su Nanqin buried half of his face in Lu Fang's arms, his eyes staring blankly at the head of the bed.

Lu Fang's heart clenched painfully.

Then he heard the hands tighten around his waist, and a soft murmur: "I'll be good... I'll be obedient... Lu Fang... don't leave me..."

Lu Fang opened his mouth, but couldn't speak for a moment. He didn't know why Su Nanqin had such a strong sense of gain and loss.

It was so intense it was almost abnormal.

Is it because I didn't give the other person enough security?

He reached behind him with one hand and gently untied the hands that were tightly holding him. His grip was strong, but his movements were very light.

Carefully, as if afraid of startling the sensitive cat in her arms.

Then he scooped the other person up and changed their position, letting them lean against his arm like he was holding a child.

He gently wiped the tears from the other person's face before looking down at them and saying softly, "Sweetie, baby, don't cry. Listen to me, no one doesn't want Nan Nan, and Nan Nan doesn't need to be perfectly obedient. An older man likes it when he's a little naughty too."

Su Nanqin didn't know whether she was touched by the other person's affection or amused by the other person's older man.

Her tense expression relaxed slightly, and her light purple eyes sparkled as she looked at Lu Fang.

Then he lowered his eyes and asked, for the first time with some uncertainty, "Do you really like it?"

After asking the question, he quickly lowered his eyelashes in disappointment and murmured, "Nobody likes her... nobody likes Nan Nan...they like Su Nanqin, but nobody likes Nan Nan..."

This was the first time Lu Fang had seen this expression on Su Nanqin's face; it was a look of insecurity and disappointment.

The glaring sense of loss stung Lu Fang.

Nobody likes Nan Nan...

But many people like Su Nanqin... they just like the strong material foundation and near-perfect appearance that lie beneath Su Nanqin's exterior...

Su Nanqin was very smart; he always understood that.

It is precisely because of this clear understanding—that no one truly likes him—that he is all the more heartbreaking.

It's clear that Nan Nan is the most authentic and adorable side of Su Nanqin.

For a moment, Lu Fang suddenly lost the desire to comfort the other person; all gentle words seemed pale and powerless.

This is insufficient to prove the overwhelming love and deep tenderness he felt for the woman in his arms at that moment.

Only action...

He wanted to pull Su Nanqin into his arms.

They showed intense, loving affection.

Let him cry his heart out, let him know how much he loves and cares for the lovely person in his arms.

The pain was so intense that I wanted to crush the other person into my very bones...

Lu Fang restrained himself, suppressing his overwhelming love. Then he gritted his teeth and pressed his head hard against Su Nanqin's forehead.

After a long pause, he finally spoke in a low, restrained voice, "Someone loves me, someone loves me, I love you... Nan Nan... don't cry, I'll let you know how much I love you..."

This was the first time Su Nanqin had ever heard someone say they loved him; no one had ever said it before.

Overwhelmed by a torrent of love, Su Nanqin was drowned in it.

-

Lu Fang went to a small town in P City in the south this time, and took Shan Yu with him.

A good-for-nothing can't be idle all day long.

Lu Fang left quietly early in the morning, making sure not to wake Su Nanqin.

Lu Fang glanced at the bed; the person on it was sleeping soundly.

He leaned down and gently kissed Su Nanqin's brow, then picked up his suitcase and left.

He knew that Su Nanqin would be unhappy if he didn't say goodbye, but he couldn't possibly agree to Su Nanqin going.

Too dangerous.

The person on the bed slowly opened their eyes only after Lu Fang's footsteps disappeared around the corner.

She raised her hand and touched the forehead that Lu Fang had kissed, then put her index finger to her lips and kissed it.

He picked up his phone and dialed Xiao Zhou's number...

As expected, that unreliable Shan Yu was late again.

He rushed over but was immediately smacked on the head and scolded by Lu Fang.

In the end, he could only awkwardly follow behind and carry the luggage.

Wei Chi's treatment is better than his.

After being scolded by Lu Fang, the Chanyu could only chuckle awkwardly and try to appease Lu Fang by taking his box.

"Take this too." Lu Fang deliberately wanted to teach him a lesson, so he looked up and gestured to Wei Chi's hand.

The Chanyu was very obedient. While taking the box, his gaze fell on the boy in the white hoodie who was holding the box.

He remembered that the child's name was Wei Chi, and he was his brother's little follower.

He had seen him before, but in the two years since, he had grown quite a bit. He was wearing a beige hoodie over light gray sweatpants and a pair of collaborative sneakers.

A very youthful style of dressing.

He looks clean and handsome no matter how you look at him, unlike the people you usually see in bars and in society.

Wei Chi is fair-skinned and used to be a troublemaker in school, but after spending a lot of time with his brother, his roguish nature has long been tamed.

The little face, accentuated by the off-white sweatshirt, actually looked rather cute and endearing.

Dan Yu calmly composed himself, and his hand, which was reaching for the box, intentionally or unintentionally brushed against the other person's fair hand.

Wei Chi didn't understand and looked at him with a puzzled expression, thinking that the other party didn't want to carry it: "It's not heavy, I can do it myself."

Dan Yu chuckled inwardly, realizing that the other man didn't even understand the hint.

Dan Yu bent down and subtly curled his lips when the other person couldn't see him.

Tired of the same old girls and girls in bars? Maybe it's nice to try something different once in a while.

He suddenly became interested...
