Chapter 116: Chapter 116: Absolutely Do Not Make Weird Noises

"I understand!" Su Yunzhou said softly, looking at Li Yan’s flushed, dewy cheeks. "This is our little secret."

Li Yan gave a slight nod, but that wasn’t the only thing she wanted to say. A woman’s courage always grew significantly after taking that step.

Since things had already come to this, she decided to throw caution to the wind, just like Jenny had done. Soon after, the two of them left the room.

The man with the dreadlocks watched her swaying figure leave. Retracting his envious gaze, he grabbed his cleaning supplies and went to The Wizard of Oz, only to find the room completely spotless. The windows were wide open, and even the black trash bag had been taken away.

Tsk, tsk, tsk. These two really knew what they were doing! They were clearly regulars. But still, such a gorgeous mature woman really left a man itching for more.

He felt an uncontrollable heat rising within him. Seeing that he still had over an hour before his shift ended, he scrolled through his contacts and found a Lou Feng he occasionally visited to take care of business.

The Panamera ROARED out of the underground parking lot.

"Are we going to my place?" Su Yunzhou asked.

"No," Li Yan shook her head. "I don’t want to go to a hotel. There are too many people. Let’s go to my house!"

Su Yunzhou summoned Tuantuan to navigate to Tongjin Garden. Along the way, the Panamera showed off its excellent performance, and they arrived at their destination ten minutes early.

KNOCK KNOCK.

The door opened, and the two immediately embraced. In that moment, even the air around them seemed to turn scorching hot. Su Yunzhou kicked off his shoes and carried Li Yan inside.

Wrapping her arms around his neck, Li Yan stared at him with beautiful eyes. Her red lips parted slightly. "Yunzhou, I..."

Time slipped away.

By the time Li Yan opened her eyes again, it was almost dark outside.

"Yunzhou, can I order some takeout for you tonight?" she asked.

Su Yunzhou smiled. "I can just order it."

"No!" Li Yan gently shook her head. "You don’t know what’s good around here. Let me do it."

Su Yunzhou nodded. If she was insisting on giving him a chance to earn some cashback, how could he turn down her good intentions?

"Alright then. I’ll go take a shower first!"

Dragging her exhausted body up, Li Yan found a bath towel for him before slumping back onto the sofa, looking as picturesque as a beautiful oil painting.

A few minutes later, Su Yunzhou walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel.

A man’s charm wasn’t just about his face. His athletic physique—lean in clothes but muscular without them—was enough to make any woman’s heart flutter. Even men with average looks could easily win women over if they had a good body. It was just like how men were drawn to a woman’s soft, pale curves; it was a primal instinct buried deep in their DNA. Since ancient times, strong men had always been more attractive to the opposite sex.

Li Yan went into the bathroom next. The sound of the running shower lasted for a long time before she slowly walked out, wrapped in a towel and radiating a faint fragrance.

A beauty rising fresh from the bath.

The phrase suddenly became vividly real in that moment. Feeling a certain someone’s burning gaze on her, Li Yan hurried into the bedroom, secretly delighted.

BUZZZZ.

The sound of a hairdryer echoed from the bedroom. Su Yunzhou remembered reading on Little Blue Book that drying a partner’s hair was one of the best ways to score extra relationship points. Just as he was about to head in and offer, another series of knocks rang out at the front door.

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK.

"Coming!"

Su Yunzhou opened the door and returned with a heavy, silver takeout bag.

He wondered why she had ordered so much. Opening the bag and taking out the exquisitely packaged boxes, a familiar memory washed over him.

Uh...

They really were best friends. Stir-fried pork kidneys with Du Zhong, oyster omelet, stir-fried shrimp with chives...

At that moment, Li Yan walked out. Her hair, half-wet and half-dry, cascaded down her back. She wore a set of light blue pajamas, the loose and comfortable fabric perfectly outlining her curves. Her delicate eyebrows arched gracefully, and her eyes shimmered with a watery gleam.

Seeing his hesitant expression, Li Yan’s eyes crinkled with amusement. "Eat up! Don’t be shy! If it’s not enough, I’ll order you some more."

"I... thank you..."

Su Yunzhou gave a helpless smile and picked up his chopsticks. He might as well eat. After all, he would be burning off all this energy on her later anyway.

[The mature beauty has spent 400 yuan on you. Affinity is at 83 points. 33,200 yuan has been returned as cashback.]

By the end of the meal, Li Yan had actually eaten more than Su Yunzhou. It seemed she really had been starving.

After they finished, Su Yunzhou took the empty containers into the kitchen. The sight of him walking back out was so identical to a scene from her dreams that Li Yan completely froze.

"What’s wrong?" he asked.

"Nothing!" Li Yan shook her head, thinking to herself, "How wonderful it would be if every day could be like this."

Su Yunzhou smiled. Although Li Yan didn’t say it out loud, he had a pretty good read on what she was thinking. Jenny had made the exact same choice back then. Everything that happened tonight would remain their shared secret. As for whether there would be another night like this... that depended entirely on the right timing. However, timing was something that could be artificially created.

If you know, you know.

Right then, Li Yan’s phone started ringing. Seeing the caller ID, her expression changed drastically. "It’s Yiyi."

Su Yunzhou also felt a twinge of nervousness, but on second thought, they hadn’t left behind any obvious flaws. "Answer it! See what she has to say."

Li Yan paused, took a deep breath, and hit the accept button.

"Yiyi, what’s wrong? Didn’t you have relatives visiting?"

Liu Yiyi’s slightly agitated voice drifted out from the earpiece. Su Yunzhou couldn’t hear her clearly, but based on their conversation, he was certain it had nothing to do with what was currently going on between them.

Li Yan frowned. "It’s so annoying that they’re saying that! Besides, who even leaked that news in the first place?"

Watching the two best friends chatting so passionately, Su Yunzhou suddenly had a bold idea.

"Ah!" Li Yan cried out in surprise, only just realizing how audacious a certain someone was being. She quickly pressed a finger to her lips, shooting him a warning glare.

Liu Yiyi’s voice came through the phone. "Yanyan! What’s wrong?"

"Nothing! I just accidentally stubbed my toe."

A system notification rang out. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ

[Affinity +2]

Heh. So she actually liked this kind of dynamic.

Wearing a wicked grin, he extended a finger to gently brush aside the hair by Li Yan’s ear. Leaning in close, he whispered, "Shh."

"Yiyi, I’m fine..." Li Yan stammered into the phone. "Keep going... What happened at home?"
