982 Perplexed and Smitten 42 (1/2)
The moment he began thrusting himself in and out of her willfully, An Xiaoning grabbed his arm and said softly, ”Long Tianze is outside.”
Jin Qingyan answered nonchalantly, ”So what if he is? He can't possibly be here for anything serious at such a late hour. We'll just let him wait.”
He continued with the act.
Realizing that Jin Qingyan did not seem to hear him, Long Tianze decided to lean against the door to try and listen for sounds coming from inside the bedroom, all despite knowing that Jin Qingyan had installed the best soundproofing system in his bedroom. To his disappointment, he could not hear a thing at all.
Could it be that he's not in?
Long Tianze scurried downstairs and asked Fan Shixin, ”Dummy, is your Young Sir really upstairs?”
”Of course, I saw him going upstairs with my own eyes.”
”Is your Young Madam home, too?”
”Yeah.”
Long Tianze immediately understood what was going on. He gestured for Fan Shixin to leave and said, ”Go ahead and get busy with what you have to do. I'll wait for him here.”
”Mr. Long, why are you looking for Young Sir at such a late hour?”
”Nothing much, I just wanted to have a chat with him because I'm too bored.”
Fan Shixin nodded and said, ”Just wait here, then. I reckon Young Sir will need about another half an hour before he'd be ready to come downstairs.”
Long Tianze gave him the side-eye and said teasingly, ”You've become a genius after following him around for so long.”
”That's true,” said Fan Shixin, exiting the living room with a smile.
As soon as he left, Long Tianze headed upstairs again.
He took a look at the time on his watch and sat cross-legged on the floor outside the bedroom. He then placed his palms together and closed his eyes, as if he were a monk in meditation.
Half an hour later, the door was finally opened.
Clad in his pajamas, Jin Qingyan leaned against the door frame and looked down at Long Tianze. ”Are you planning to become a monk?”
Long Tianze opened his eyes slowly and drawled, ”Little Eunuch Jin, I arrived long ago and I called you. You're really good at playing deaf, aren't you?”
”You're more like a eunuch. Well, you came at an untimely juncture.”
”Why so?” he answered, asking the obvious.
”What do you think?”
”I'm just a child. How would I know what goes on in the world of you adults?”
Jin Qingyan walked out and closed the door before walking down the stairs. Long Tianze hurriedly followed closely behind and said, ”Qingyan, let's have some drinks.”
”No.”
”I feel like drinking.”
”Go drink on your own, then.” Jin Qingyan sat down on the couch, rested his legs on the coffee table, and opened his eyes to look at Long Tianze. ”Fancy you coming here late at night. What's eating you?”
Long Tianze sat down beside him and said, ”Well, it's a case of domestic violence. My wife abused me…”
”Did she hit you?”
”No, she just gave me the cold shoulder.”
Jin Qingyan knew that they would rarely argue and would usually stick to each other like a pair of lovebirds. Hence, he wondered what happened this time.
”Why did she give you the cold shoulder?”
”We had a tiff.”
”Why?”
Long Tianze teared up while explaining the situation to him, ”I went to the Black Genie tonight, and I was in high spirits so I had a bit too much to drink. I was really ecstatic and I began dancing racily with one of the young girls working there. Who knew? Yangyang was there too. Then, that happened…”
Jin Qingyan guffawed insensitively and jested, ”Oh no, what do we do? Uh-oh, your wife is upset and doesn't want to talk to you. You deserve it, hah.”
