Just as Zong Cheng was thinking, he saw Yin Chen walk in with anger written all over his face.
Yin Chen was angry?
Angry about what?
He was already writing the update…
Oh.
Zong Cheng suddenly remembered the email from earlier and looked at Yin Chen a little cautiously.
“What’s wrong?”
Pissed off by an idiot!
Yin Chen rolled his eyes inwardly, walked over, and naturally nestled into Zong Cheng’s arms.
?
There is such a good thing?
Zong Cheng quickly spread his legs slightly and drew him into his embrace.
As for writing?
That could wait!
With the love of his heart in his arms, who cares about anything else?
One hand half-wrapped around Yin Chen’s waist, Zong Cheng’s ears flushed faintly red.
Satisfied!
Just… deeply satisfied!
Yin Chen was equally pleased, leaning into him as he rattled off everything Dongfang Wan had done like an idiot.
That damn Dongfang Wan!
Daily insult count: ten thousand times!
Only after venting did he tilt his head to look at Zong Cheng.
Zong Cheng was slightly dazed, lost in thought.
So that email must have been sent by Dongfang Wan?
What was he after?
Zong Cheng was completely baffled.
Without thinking much, he mentioned that he had received an email.
???
Yin Chen was stunned!
What exactly is Dongfang Wan trying to do?
Break him and Zong Cheng up?
What does their relationship have to do with Dongfang Wan? Are they in his way?
“Don’t believe the nonsense in that email. Lin Yuhan and I have been over for a long time.”
He could curse later—right now his newly appointed boyfriend’s broad chest was pressed against his back!
Calm him down first!
As he spoke, Yin Chen tilted his head back slightly to kiss Zong Cheng’s chin.
“I know.”
Yin Chen likes big ones!
Lin Yuhan is small!
Zong Cheng blurted instinctively. Feeling the kiss against his chin, his ears reddened even more.
?
So obedient.
Seeing his expression, most of the anger in Yin Chen’s heart dissipated at once.
He lifted a hand slightly; his loose sleeve slipped down a bit as he hooked an arm around Zong Cheng’s neck.
This time, he took the initiative in a lingering, intimate kiss.
By the time Zong Cheng finally let him go, Yin Chen had completely forgotten what he had been angry about.
He rubbed against him with ill intent, looking at Zong Cheng’s flushed face with a half-smile.
“How far has your technical training progressed?”
!
Zong Cheng turned his face slightly to the side, looking flustered.
“A-anyway, it hasn’t reached th-that stage yet…”
There was just too much material to study!
A-and he still had to buy a lot of things!
The memory of the shopping pages he had once opened and only dared glance at made his breathing grow heavier.
?
It has not even reached that stage?
Is Zong Cheng’s learning progress a little too slow?
Yin Chen fell into thought.
He remembered the “baby car” scenes he had read about before and felt a tiny bit of regret.
The books said driving was extremely enjoyable!
He had never experienced it himself!
Although…
Forget it.
Yin Chen kissed Zong Cheng a few more times.
If his boyfriend is timid, then he is timid. If he is slow, then he is slow. As long as he is not lacking elsewhere.
Besides, that only makes him even cuter and more tempting to bully.
With Yin Chen’s orders, Attorney Gao discreetly fanned the flames. Dongfang Wan soon found himself overwhelmed.
In the past few days, he received news—his second uncle’s biological son had met with his second uncle several times and was very likely intending to be acknowledged and brought back into the Dongfang family!
What chilled Dongfang Wan even more was that his second uncle seemed to be considering it too!
“Are you sure?”
Dongfang Wan confirmed repeatedly with the private investigator he had hired.
The man sounded annoyed.
“Young Master Wan, I might not guarantee everything else, but in this area I am absolutely professional, okay? If you don’t believe me, just wait. After the New Year, your second uncle will bring his son back. I have already delivered the information. When he brings him back, you can pay me then. I am not worried about you skipping out on this job.”
After the New Year?
That soon?
Dongfang Wan bit his fingernail.
“What about other details? Didn’t you find anything else? Why does he suddenly want to return to the Dongfang family? Wasn’t he doing fine in his own home?”
Wasn’t the man his second uncle’s first love married treating him well? Why would that guy want to come to the Dongfang family?
“Tsk, Young Master Wan, listen to yourself.”
The man on the other end scoffed.
“If you can be the eldest young master, who wants to stay an ordinary nobody? Anyway, I have finished investigating. The rest is your own business!”
Click.
The call ended cleanly.
Dongfang Wan’s face shifted from green to purple, then purple to white.
The man’s attitude had changed drastically!
Before, it was always ‘you’ in a respectful tone. Now it was blunt and even daring to hang up first!
In that instant, Dongfang Wan clearly realized that his position had already begun to waver!
From just the attitude of a small private investigator, he could already sense what would happen if he lost the title of Young Master Wan.
No!
Absolutely not!
He had to find a way to stop his second uncle from bringing that person back!
Dongfang Wan’s face was pale, dark emotions flashing in his eyes.
Even the room seemed filled with a sinister atmosphere.
The fifth day of the first lunar month.
The festive atmosphere gradually faded, and many companies resumed work on that day.
Yin Corporation had better benefits; everyone returned on the eighth.
By comparison, Zong Cheng’s newer company resumed on the fifth, and he had to go back to oversee things.
“You have to go to work…”
Early in the morning, Yin Chen curled up in Zong Cheng’s arms, reluctant to let him get up.
Boyfriends are simply amazing creatures!
The feel of those chest muscles at night while sleeping—too good!
They even come with built-in heating!
During the day, not only do they provide free kisses, but they also unlock the privilege of being the first to read the update.
And there are countless other benefits!
Sigh. He did not want to let his boyfriend go to work.
Yin Chen stayed curled up, pondering a timeless question—why do humans have to work?
Zong Cheng was thinking about the same question.
However…
Glancing at the boyfriend nestled in his arms, he was instantly filled with motivation!
His boyfriend was so outstanding—he could not fall behind!
Besides.
He wanted to earn money and support the family.
Zong Cheng cleared his throat softly and leaned down to kiss Yin Chen on the lips.
After a moment’s thought, he decided that might not be enough and deepened it into a passionate kiss.
Yin Chen narrowed his eyes and opened his mouth to savor this rare initiative from his timid boyfriend, deeply moved inside.
Look!
That timid boyfriend of his actually knows to initiate a deep kiss now!
A teachable child indeed!
Sure enough, living together and frequent practice are the keys to technical improvement!
Hmm?
A thought suddenly occurred to Yin Chen.
Wait—does this count as living together now?
But Zong Cheng is going back to work today, right?
After work, then what?
Will he return to this villa, or go back to his own place?
Breaking the kiss, Yin Chen looked at Zong Cheng’s face and had a sudden idea.
“Yin Corporation resumes on the eighth. How about I go to work with you? You handle your business, and I will stay in your office and keep you company. What do you think?”
He could play games in Zong Cheng’s office!
And sneak a few kisses now and then.
Not bad, not bad.
Yin Chen smiled slyly.
Zong Cheng’s eyes lit up slightly.
That sounds great!
He even, unusually, took the initiative to help Yin Chen get dressed!
Yin Chen was stunned!
Is this still his timid boyfriend?
The next second, Zong Cheng turned his head away, revealing ears red as can be.
…Oh.
All right then.
Still the same timid one.
Half an hour later.
A familiar car stopped at the entrance of 24Time.
The security guard, who had nearly forgotten what the boss’s car looked like after the Spring Festival, stared for a few seconds before realizing it. He was just about to hurry over to flatter the boss for the first time in the New Year when he saw President Zong step out of the car and walk to the passenger side.
The guard froze.
Did President Zong bring documents back to the office to review during the holiday?
His eyes suddenly widened!
What President Zong lifted out was not documents—
A person stepped out.
A man!
The guard’s stride stiffened mid-step.
Especially when he saw President Zong reach out and hold that man’s hand!
Holding hands!
He slowly looked up at the blazing sun in the sky and pinched his own thigh.
Not dreaming?
The front desk, who was similarly struggling to shift from holiday mode back to work mode, had the same reaction.
The New Year!
Why are you so short?
Barely a week and already back at work—so painful!
She was still mentally wrestling with her holiday spirit when she saw President Zong walk in from outside.
“President Zong…”
She jumped to her feet to greet him, then her gaze landed on the young man behind him wearing trendy brands and a baseball cap.
W-who is that?
She froze for a second.
Zong Cheng nodded at her, then naturally led the person inside.
Led.
“Holy shit!”
The front desk blurted out, feeling as though someone had lifted the top of her skull and poured clarity straight in!
She swiftly opened the company’s internal gossip group and tagged everyone.
“Breaking news! President Zong came to work holding a man’s hand! Holding hands! And that man is pretty good-looking!”
What? What?
The employees in the gossip group, who like her were still half-submerged in the New Year mood, instantly felt both their gossip spirits and work spirits ignite at the same time!
To hell with the New Year!
With gossip like this, who cares about holidays!
“Are you sure, are you sure, are you sure?”
“How big! How good-looking!”
?
The front desk glanced at the messages. What kind of feral language is this?
“Of course I’m sure!”
“? How big are you asking me for? I’m not President Zong! I haven’t used him!”
???
The gossip group shook as one.
“Heh! Who was asking that! I meant how old is he, okay?”
“Ah, well… to be honest, I kind of thought we really knew how big.”
“Please focus on the gossip. I’m different. Is he older or younger than President Zong? :)”
?
You are all not normal!
Your thoughts are dangerous!
The front desk complained inwardly while typing rapidly.
“Anyway, I couldn’t tell his age. He looked pretty young. Wearing trendy brands and a baseball cap. President Zong walked too fast—I couldn’t see clearly! So—who is the brave soul willing to go peek into President Zong’s office later? The organization needs you!!!”
“I can’t. Just got back from the New Year. I have tons of things to handle.”
“Same here…”
“+1. Just thinking about it hurts!”
?
A bunch of useless people!
Just as the front desk was complaining, a different message suddenly appeared in the group.
“How about you just ask me directly?”
Good!
It’s you!
She was just about to privately message this brave warrior when she clicked open the chat—
And froze.
T-this is Assistant Zhong, who works beside Zong Cheng?
Wait.
Why is Assistant Zhong in their gossip group?
No.
That is not the point.
The point is—Assistant Zhong seems to know the inside story!
She quickly sent a private message.
Yin Chen stared at Zong Cheng’s computer screen, falling into deep thought.
Ah…
Why is Zong Cheng using his assistant’s account to lurk in the company gossip group?
He had just carelessly typed a message saying he knew about it while Zong Cheng was away.
Is it too late to delete it now?
