182 Start Simple (2/2)

Next to him, Su Yan had already eaten half of his food and finally remembered that he had actually brought his boyfriend along today. He turned to the side and smiled. ”Ah Chang, how do you like my mother's food?”

Nie Chang smiled back, reached over and grabbed Su Yan's nose. ”You! Have you forgotten that this isn't my first time being here? I've often eaten your mother's food. It's always good.”

”Uh.” Su Yan recoiled and rubbed his nose. ”How mean!”

Seeing his son 'argue' with his boyfriend, Mister Su instantly perked up. Could it be that this was his chance?! He cleared his throat and glared at Nie Chang. ”You! What are you doing to my son? I inv—”

”Su Guanting, you shut up!” His wife finally turned toward him but she looked everything else than happy.

Mister Su retracted his head. Uh, he probably shouldn't have tried to go against his son's boyfriend today. Now his wife was even angrier at him. He should … he should try to make amends!

He cleared his throat again and put on a harmless smile, looking at Su Yan. ”Xiao Yan, that didn't hurt, did it?”

Su Yan pursed his lips and looked at his father angrily. ”What are you even talking about? Ah Chang isn't like you! He definitely wouldn't hurt me!” He put down the chopsticks, leaned over and hugged Nie Chang. Seeing his father's lips tighten Su Yan's eyes sparkled.

He leaned even closer to Nie Chang, snuggled up against his side and rubbed his chest, giving him a pitiful look. ”Ah Chang, don't be sad! Even if my father doesn't like you, I'll stay with you! I won't leave you regardless of what he does!”

Nie Chang shuddered and hurriedly caught Su Yan's wandering hand. He definitely couldn't let him do anything outrageous in front of his parents! ”Don't worry about it, Ah Yan. I'm alright.”

”Really?” Su Yan pursed his lips, clearly not happy with this answer.

Nie Chang gave a dry cough and forced himself to nod. He did understand what Su Yan was trying to do right now but … Couldn't he implement his plan in a way that wouldn't discredit his boyfriend in front of his mother?

Su Yan reached over with his other hand and tugged at Nie Chang's sleeve to signal him that he should play his part now. Nie Chang gulped. It seemed he wouldn't get around it.

”Uh … I'm really touched that you're worried about me.” He hurriedly grabbed Su Yan's other hand to make sure they wouldn't roam around.

Su Yan looked at his hands in Nie Chang's and decided that this was probably enough to drive his father mad although he would have liked to do a little more. Well, this was also good. They could slowly step up their game! They would start simple and by the end of the dinner …

An evil little grin had the corners of Su Yan's mouth lift. Oh, his father was so going to get it tonight!
