Chapter One Hundred and Forty-Five: So It’s Okay (2/2)

Everyone present sunk into a bewildering silence.

Amidst the silence, almost everyone was deeply impressed from the bottom of their hearts.

……

Xiao Yu pulled his hat downwards for the fifth time and worriedly asked for the fifth time, “Look, is it still obvious?”

Today was the day he had arranged to meet with Nannan. Xiao Yu had been nervous since early morning because his furry ears had not disappeared yet. As he noticed that the arranged time was closing in, he had no choice but to find a hat from the bedroom to hide his extra pair of ears.

However, after adjusting himself in front of the mirror for almost half a day, Xiao Yu was still worried that it would be exposed.

Yan Jin flipped another page of the newspapers in his hands. Without even looking up, this was also the fifth time, he answered that question, “I can’t see it.”

“Hey, what kind of attitude is that?” Xiao Yu said discontentedly. “Speaking of which, it’s your fault that I ended up like this.”

If it were not because Yan Jin had ulterior motives the day before and tried to get him drunk, his ears would have disappeared by now.

Yan Jin, the accused, had no choice but to lower the newspaper in his hands and sit upright to accept the reprimand. “Yes, yes. It’s all my fault.”

“Hn. Not sincere at all.” Xiao Yu was very displeased.

“What should I do to be considered as sincere?” Yan Jin asked.

Xiao Yu gave it a thought and took the opportunity to raise conditions. “For example, arrange Nannan to work in YL with a salary better than an intern and less work than a normal employee?”

“Anything you say.” Yan Jin went back to reading the newspaper again.

That request was not much and Yan Jin did not even bother to think about it.

However, due to “ulterior motives” that Xiao Yu was not aware of till today and witnessing how Yan Jin was acting absent-mindedly, only concerned with that newspaper, he immediately started to throw a tantrum.

Xiao Yu, who was even jealous of the newspaper, leaped forward and took away the thing on Yan Jin’s hands and replaced it with his own waist. Next, he took the chance to circle his arm around Yan Jin’s neck.

“Is the newspaper that interesting?”

Yan Jin helplessly hugged Xiao Yu and smoothed his lover’s back. “Not as interesting as you.”

“Then why are you not looking at me?” Xiao Yu pursed his lips.

“Maybe because when I’m looking at you, I can’t help but want to kiss you.” Yan Jin answered honestly.

Perhaps the answer did successfully please Xiao Yu. He laughed lightly and spontaneously leaned forward.

After a lingering kiss, they were both slightly breathless.

Xiao Yu was especially helpless in this area. He had never learned how to catch his breath during kisses and every time after they shared a passionate kiss, he could only lay in Yan Jin’s embrace and catch his breath bashfully.

Yan Jin’s gaze darkened as the hands holding his lover’s head moved to take away the irksome-looking knitted hat

A pair of grey colored ears that obviously did not belong to a human was nervously sticking upright. It felt good to touch as his hand lingered between the grey and white fur. The slightly pinkish interior was redder than usual after being suppressed by the knitted hat for so long.

Yan Jin was fondling them with admiration.

He had lost all his face for this pair of ears. Every second he could not play with them was like a kind of loss.

He was like a giant dragon who was guarding its treasures, carefully checking his treasures, making sure that everything was still intact.

“Hey.” Xiao Yu’s tone was slightly proud. “Your actions are suspiciously perverted.”

“I don’t mind.”

“I mind. It won’t look good when others come over,” Xiao Yu said.

“It’s still early. You might as well let your ears out to breathe,” Yan Jin retorted.

“It’s not early already, don’t quibble…”

Xiao Yu grumbled, but his body acted honestly as he laid in Yan Jin’s embrace and obediently allowed his sensitive ears to be played with.

Moments later, Xiao Yu felt a hot sensation on his head.

Yan Jin looked on helplessly as those adorable pair of ears disappeared into thin air. Although his expression remained unchanged, he was endlessly regretting it internally.

“Oh great, they’re finally gone! I told you it’s about time.” Xiao Yu was so happy that he almost jumped in the air. He happily got off Yan Jin’s body and sat beside him as he checked his mobile. “Nannan has not replied yet. I suppose he’s driving right now. He should get here soon.”

“Hm.” Yan Jin answered disinterestedly.

“Oh right, you still mean what you said earlier right?” Xiao Yu saw Yan Jin’s slightly vacant look and quickly emphasized again. “I’m referring to giving Nannan a position with good benefits.”

“Of course, it’s all up to you.”

“But I thought I remembered you saying that you would never abuse your powers for someone without abilities?” Xiao Yu purposely mentioned that incident, hoping to reveal Yan Jin’s sanctimonious pretense. “Or are you just coaxing me and once you return to work, you’ll turn back into that icy-cold chairman who is strictly impartial and incorruptible?”

Yan Jin recalled about the incident that Xiao Yu had mentioned. Although his memory was outstanding he could not recall when he had said that to Xiao Yu. Despite that, it did not stop him from using it to flirt.

“The main point is not whether that person had ability. It’s about outsiders.” Yan Jin smiled as he pinched Xiao Yu’s thin waist and received a surprised squeak.

Before Xiao Yu could scream and try to escape, he heard a low but clearly worded answer,

“You’re an insider, so it’s okay.”
