To prevent their mother from going out to meet a certain man late at night, Ji Zihan and Ji Zimo kept watch in the lobby downstairs.

Upon hearing her younger sister say that her smartwatch was missing, the two of them looked up at the same time and asked in unison, "Where did you lose it?"

Ji, a talented actress, pouted her little mouth, looking wronged and sad, and said, "When I was playing Peppa Pig in the toy room, I suddenly realized it was missing, and I can't find it anywhere..."

Seeing that she looked like she was about to cry, Ji Zihan quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, Mo Bao and I will go upstairs and help you look for it."

As soon as they finished speaking, the two little cuties got up and went upstairs, following their sister to the toy room.

Ji Fuling, who had secretly peeked out of the room and witnessed the whole thing, was speechless.

Sister Fanxi is right, it's a real waste that this little girl isn't studying acting.

After expressing her feelings, Ji Fuling tiptoed downstairs and slipped out the door smoothly.

Upon seeing her emerge, the man who had been leaning against the car suddenly stood up straight, his dark eyes fixed on her. "Come here."

Ji Fuling blinked and ran up to him. "Where are we going?"

"Okay, let me take you to get something to eat."

As Ye Nanqing spoke, he casually opened the back door of the car.

Ji Fuling sat down automatically and consciously.

Once the two were in the car, Chen Heng, in the driver's seat, started the car and drove towards the food street, just as his nightclub had instructed him to.

In the back seat, Ye Nanqing reached out and pulled the woman, who was sitting a bit far away, to his side, his eyes fixed on her with a deep gaze. "It's really not easy to see you."

"You have the nerve to say that? If it weren't for you, Zihan and Zimo wouldn't have been staring at me like that."

Ji Fuling snorted, "Could you be a little more careful in front of those three children in the future?"

It was because of that kiss at the airport that her two sons became even more wary!

Ye Nanqing found it somewhat amusing. "What's there to be careful about? It's just a kiss."

Ji Fuling: "..."

She seriously doubted that this man knew anything about what "a little" meant!

A light touch like a dragonfly skimming the water is what counts, but his sucking and nibbling is not!

Seeing her resentful expression, Ye Nanqing reached out and pinched her cheek, saying dismissively, "Once we get married and live together, there will be even more of these kinds of scenes. Wouldn't it be better for them to get used to it sooner?"

Ji Fuling's face immediately darkened.

Even if you're married, you should still be careful in front of children, right?

She emphasized, stressing, "They're just kids!!"

"And now?"

Ye Nanqing raised an eyebrow slightly, his tone carrying a hint of profound meaning.

The abrupt and seemingly unrelated sentence startled Ji Fuling. "What?"

The man glanced at her leisurely and said unhurriedly, "Now that the three little ones are not here, there's no need to pay attention, right?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Fuling finally understood what he meant, and her expression instantly turned speechless.

She was about to say that they were in the car and that Assistant Chen was in front, so they shouldn't do anything reckless.

The middle partition suddenly dropped, separating the front and rear seats.

Before Ji Fuling could react, Ye Nanqing pulled her into his arms, sat her on his lap, and whispered in her ear, "I missed you."

The man's deep, magnetic voice was alluring, and his warm breath brushed against her neck.

Ji Fuling's heart suddenly started racing uncontrollably, and her cheeks and ears felt slightly hot.

She looked at the man's handsome face so close to hers, her tone tinged with doubt, "Are you sure you didn't omit a word?"

Ye Nanqing had just lowered his head when he heard this, and his movements paused slightly. A hint of a smile escaped his thin lips as he said, "It's true that I miss you, but it's also true that I want to kiss you..."

He buried his head in her neck, tightened his arms around her waist, and pressed his thin lips against her delicate collarbone.

The tingling sensation made Ji Fuling unconsciously let out a soft hum.

She placed her hand on the man's shoulder and pushed him away, "No, they'll hear us from the front..."

Ye Nanqing did not answer, nor did he stop.

His kisses were delicate and lingering, yet also extremely aggressive, moving from her collarbone to her neck, and then to her lips.

She was not given the slightest chance to refuse or bargain.

Ji Fuling's consciousness seemed to gradually fade away as the kiss deepened.

The atmosphere in the isolated back seat gradually heated up...

Only when he felt the car stop did Ye Nanqing slowly release the woman in his arms.

Ji Fuling's breathing quickened, and when her gaze fell upon the man's heaving chest, she quickly turned her flushed face away.

Ye Nanqing gently stroked her cheek, turning her face back to him. His deep voice, husky with restraint, asked, "Tired?"

"..."

Ji Fuling lay weakly on top of him, wishing she could shut his mouth.

I told him he could hear me from the front, but he insisted on staying in the car.

Do you really think that middle panel can block sound?!

After a moment's pause, Ji Fuling turned to look outside the car and realized that the car had already stopped.

Moreover, it was parked on a busy street in the city center.

In an instant, her already flushed face turned even redder.

Even though I know the windows are tinted so that people outside can't see inside, I still have this feeling that someone might be able to see me...

Ji Fuling closed her eyes briefly, then awkwardly looked away, burying her face in the man's chest as if trying to escape, pretending nothing had happened.

Ye Nanqing chuckled softly, gently stroking her long, loose hair with his large hand. "Want me to carry you down?"

"Need not!"

Ji Fuling refused without hesitation.

With people coming and going outside, and this man attracting so much attention, if he were to carry her out of the car, she would definitely turn heads.

She doesn't want to be trending on social media!

Two minutes later, the woman, whose blush had faded slightly, was led out of the car by the man in a good mood and walked into the restaurant.

Not far away, Qiao Yuer, who was out shopping with her friends, happened to catch a glimpse of this scene.

Her steps suddenly froze, as if she had been frozen in place by a spell, her gaze fixed on the figures of Ye Nanqing and Ji Fuling.

Her friend noticed something was wrong and took her hand, asking, "Yu'er, what's wrong? Are you alright?"

Qiao Yu'er gritted her teeth and didn't reply, her mind filled with the image of the two of them holding hands intimately.

No wonder Aunt Ye kept making excuses to avoid seeing her when she went to see her lately; it turns out that Ye Nanqing was with another woman.

If I'm not mistaken, that woman is none other than Ji Fuling, the second young lady of the Ji family who caused a scandal five years ago!

Resentment and jealousy quickly fermented in Qiao Yuer's heart.

Seeing that she remained silent and just stared in one direction, her friend couldn't help but worry, "Yu'er, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Qiao Yuer shook her head. "It's nothing. I just suddenly remembered that I have something to take care of. You guys go shopping, don't worry about me."

Hearing her say that, her friends didn't ask any more questions, said goodbye, and parted ways with her.

Qiao Yu'er narrowed her eyes, staring at the restaurant where Ye Nanqing and Ji Fuling were, and followed them there...
