Chapter 346: Who Is He? Why Don’t You Want To See Him?
Guan Ying dated Song Chuyi before, so she was out. Ruan Yang was also with Xin Ziao before. Although Ruan Yang kissed Li Shaobin before, to Changqing, things were impossible between these two. Besides, Ruan Yang was currently in Northern Europe and it was still uncertain whether she would return or not.
As for the others whom she wasn’t so close to, Changqing didn’t dare to introduce them to him.
Song Chuyi said lazily, “Don’t listen to his crap. He keeps talking about it but when someone introduces a prospective partner to him, he doesn’t even put in the effort to get along with her.”
“Yeah,” Zhan Mingwei agreed. “Shaobin, I ran into your mother previously and she even wanted me to persuade you to go on a blind date.”
“You have no idea. My mom was referring to the Meng Family’s daughter.” Li Shaobin pressed his lips together. “She’s only 20 years old. Besides, I heard she’s very sheltered and she talks like a mosquito. I don’t like that.”
“Other than the one you had a crush on in high school, no one knows what your type is.” Song Chuyi shook his head. “But you shouldn’t be anxious either. After all, you’re only 29. It’s fine even if you get married in a few years.”
Li Shaobin looked at Yan Molun. “When are you bringing your girlfriend over to hang out with us? Shouldn’t we get to know each other?”
“Some other day perhaps.” Yan Molun stared at the cards in his hands seriously as though he was very concentrated on playing cards.
————————————————-
Duoyao was in Xiamen for three days. When she returned, Yan Molun waited for her at the airport underground car park. He sat in the car as he watched her looking for his car while carrying various-sized bags. When she saw him, she scurried over quickly.
“What are all these?” Yan Molun looked at all the small boxes in her bags.
“My mom made me some marinated vegetables and chive pockets.” Duoyao placed the things in the backseat and buckled her seatbelt before sneaking a peek at the man beside her. It had merely been three days since they last met, but she felt as though it had been a very long time.
This could be considered a reunion after a short separation. Would he deliver another passionate kiss? Aiya, just thinking about it made her face blush and her heart race.
However, unexpectedly, Yan Molun simply started the car engine very calmly and didn’t see to sense the urgency of their reunion after a short separation.
Duoyao was bewildered. Was she the only one who felt this was a so-called reunion after a short separation?
So did he lie when he said he missed her over the phone?
“Did you have fun this time?” Yan Molun asked as he drove.
“It was alright,” Duoyao answered casually.
Yan Molun glanced at her strangely, obviously finding something weird with what she said. “It was alright? You left your house for months. Shouldn’t your parents have missed you a lot?”
Duoyao rolled her eyes. “My dad and mom said they can see me often on TV anyway. So when I got back this time, they just made a lot of my favorite dishes and made soup for me every day for nourishment. Don’t you think I’ve gained some weight?”
“You’re alright.” Yan Molun couldn’t understand how women thought at times. It had only been three days. How could it be so easy to tell whether a person had gained or lost weight? It wasn’t as if she had gotten a hormonal jab.
…
The car drove into her neighborhood. When Duoyao saw the white Porsche stopped outside her villa, she suddenly shrank in her seat and tugged at Yan Molun’s arm. “Don’t stop, drive away. I’m not going home.”
Yan Molun also saw the Porsche. When he saw the young and handsome figure leaning on the Porsche, he seemed to have figured out the situation. He stepped on the accelerator and drove past her villa, driving one lap around the area before leaving.
Only then did Duoyao sit back up on her seat. Yan Molun’s face sank as he stopped the car by the side of the road. He asked, “Who is he? Why don’t you want to see him?”
Duoyao felt a little guilty. However, after a while, she thought there wasn’t a need for her to be guilty since she did didn’t anything to let him down. “He’s the son of my company’s boss. He came back from his overseas studies last year and he’s been chasing me but I don’t like him and I also rejected him outright. I didn’t think he would come all the way here to look for me.”
Yan Molun continued to look at her intensely without speaking, exuding a gloomy and dangerous aura.
Duoyao didn’t speak. In any case, she didn’t lie to him. If he was angry, she could only say that he was being unreasonable.
Yan Molun remained gloomy for a few seconds before he started the engine again.
He drove for more than 10 minutes before Duoyao suddenly thought of something. She asked weakly, “Where are you going?”
“My house,” Yan Molun said lightly.
Duoyao’s back shot straight up agitatedly. His house?
We’re going to his house right now?
“Isn’t… isn’t this progressing a little too fast?” she asked nervously.
Yan Molun’s brows twitched. He turned to look at her. “What do you mean too fast? I didn’t say I would do anything to you at my house.”
Duoyao bit her lower lip. “I didn’t say what we would do at your house either. It’s just that going to your house… I still feel… mm… it’s…”
“Just admit that you’re thinking about sleeping together,” Yan Molun interrupted her. He sighed inside.
Duoyao felt embarrassed after being exposed. She clenched her teeth and insisted, “I’m not. Yan Molun, you’re too filthy.”
Yan Molun didn’t want to be bothered with her. Who was the one thinking about that?
His house was still some distance from where she lived. There was a traffic jam on the way and after an hour’s drive, Duoyao said, “I didn’t realize your house was so far away from mine. Wasn’t it very inconvenient for you when you picked me up before?”
“Mm. If I’d have known earlier that I would like you, I would’ve rented an apartment somewhere closer,” Yan Molun said in a low and hoarse voice.
Duoyao pressed her lips together tightly. Her face heated up again. It really wasn’t because she got shy easily. It was mainly because Mr. Yan always came up with a sudden confession, making her heart race.
Not long later, the car drove into an area in Plum Park. They were surrounded by high-rise buildings. After Yan Molun parked his car, he helped her carry her stuff out from the backseat. “I live on the 30th floor.”
“30th floor?” Duoyao got a shock. “It’s really high up!”
“Mm. The top floor.”
Taking the elevator up to the top floor took the longest time. Luckily, the elevator was very fast and it wasn’t the peak period after people got off work, so they reached the 30th floor in no time. He opened the door and walked in. It was a duplex apartment. The furniture was mainly grey and other than white, there were no other warm colors. The furniture wasn’t lavish and was mainly simple.
Duoyao had heard a designer mention before that the furnishing of a house could reveal its owner’s character. She seemed to understand a little now.
“Come in.” Yan Molun gave her a pair of male slippers and explained, “Sorry, I don’t have female slippers at home. I didn’t think a woman would come to my house.”
Hearing that, Duoyao felt a little sweet inside. That meant she was the first woman he brought back. Of course, she would be unhappy if she were to see a pair of female slippers in his house since he was an orphan and was living alone, so having a pair of female slippers would inevitably make one’s thoughts run wild.
She put on the slippers which were too big for her and walked to the balcony. His balcony was very big—it was at least around 40 to 50 square feet wide. There were a lot of gym equipment on the balcony. She stood by the balcony railing and glanced down. It was a height that could make one’s legs shake. “Why must you live on the top floor? It’s so scary?”
“I like the feeling of being high up.” Yan Molun walked over and stretched out his arms behind her, pulling her small figure into his embrace. “Are you afraid of heights?”
“A little.” Her face heated up from the hug as she nodded.
He lowered his head and watched her little face, saying, “If I knew I would like a woman with a fear of heights, I wouldn’t have bought an apartment so high up.”
Duoyao’s face became as red as an apple once again.
Can this man not have such a glib tongue?
“But… you bought it already.”
“Yeah.” Yan Molun picked her up and she let out a squeal. He carried her and sat her down on the bar table on the balcony. Even if she was sitting on the bar table, her eyes only met his chin, but this still made it very convenient for him to kiss her.
Indeed. Within seconds, a kiss from Yan Molun kiss landed on her lips.
Duoyao tried to shun him. She was so nervous her whole body was shaking. “We’re on the balcony, next door…”
“I bought the apartment next door too. No one’s living there,” Yan Molun said as he continued kissing her.
Duoyao stared wide-eyed at him. “The apartment next door is yours too…”
“Mm, I don’t like to live on the same level as other people, so I bought it,” Yan Molun said hoarsely.
Duoyao was dumbfounded. Isn’t that too willful? To her knowledge, the properties in this area weren’t cheap. A normal apartment could easily cost a few million, much less a duplex apartment. It was possible for the prices to even go up to 10 million. Even she didn’t dare to spend money so casually. After all, her duplex apartment was near the suburbs so it actually wasn’t very expensive.
“How much money do you have exactly?” She sighed deep down in her heart.
“Mm. I have a lot—a lot—of money. It’s enough for you to live a lavish life for the rest of your life.” Yan Molun’s kiss became a storm, pelting on her.
Duoyao felt as though she couldn’t breathe. Her mind was in a daze and she couldn’t think of anything else.
He grabbed her hand and put it around his neck as he savored her like how a child ate a sweet.
“Did you miss me over the past few days?”
In a daze, she seemed to hear him speak by her ear. After saying that, he kissed it.
Duoyao felt her body going limp. When she regained her senses, she was suddenly pushed down on the long bar table.
She suddenly felt like a fish thrown on a chopping board. She wanted to struggle although she was weak all over, and within moments, Yan Molun planted kisses on her all over again.
Duoyao recalled some of the romantic novels she had read in the past and also those shameful things she looked at with Changqing and the others while hiding in their dormitory.
