Chapter 115 Take it easy, don't get carried away.
Lu Jinyuan is quite talented in training dogs. Gou Dan and Fu Gui got along well in less than three days and now they even live in the same litter and eat the same dog food.
Jiang Qingying expressed her satisfaction with this, and added that if Lu Jinyuan ever went bankrupt, he might be able to find a well-paying job at the pet hospital.
Lu Jinyuan stared silently at the trousers whose leg was torn to shreds, unable to utter a single word.
Time flies, and the calendar has turned to the last day of August.
Today is Jiang Chen's birthday. We all gathered at home for dinner tonight, and even Jiang Xu took some time out of her busy schedule to go home.
Qin Qing started preparing dinner early in the morning. She was a pretty good cook, but she didn't cook much. Usually, the housekeeper or Jiang Chen would cook. She only started cooking after Jiang Qingying became pregnant, and then on important days like today.
To express their feelings, Jiang Qingying and Lu Jinyuan used the little cake-making skills they had learned at home to make a birthday cake for Jiang Chen.
Jiang Xu was the only one who couldn't help at all. He rushed home just before dinner. Jiang Qingying always looked at him with displeasure, and seeing that he hadn't contributed anything today, she showed all her disgust on her face.
"Are you serious?" Jiang Xu laughed at her.
Jiang Qingying: "It's nothing, I just can't stand your useless attitude."
Jiang Xu: "......"
Jiang Qingying leaned closer, put her arm around his shoulder, and asked gossipily, "Did you manage to win that girl over?"
Jiang Xu felt she really shouldn't have come back today.
Qin Qing chimed in, "That's right, it's been almost a year and you still haven't won her over? You're really too useless. Don't tell anyone you're my son when you go out."
Lu Jinyuan watched from the sidelines, secretly amused.
Jiang Xu poured himself a glass of wine expressionlessly. Jiang Qingying, not wanting to let him off the hook, said, "Don't drown your sorrows in alcohol."
Jiang Xu gave her a cold look and explained, "I just wanted to toast Dad."
Then, he turned to Jiang Chen and said, "Dad, happy birthday."
Jiang Chen picked up his wine glass, clinked it with his in the air, downed the glass in his drink, and then casually added, "I'd be even happier if you could bring a girlfriend back."
Jiang Xu almost choked on his drink. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw two loving couples, which made him so angry that he wanted to run away from home.
Is there anywhere left in this world for single people?!
Aside from this little incident, the meal was still very enjoyable.
Jiang Qingying had a particularly good appetite tonight, abandoning all self-control and eating quite a lot. Lu Jinyuan and Jiang Xu were both drinking with Jiang Chen. She had originally wanted to say a few words of advice, but seeing them enjoying themselves, she didn't interfere. Besides, Jiang Xu did seem to be drowning her sorrows in alcohol, but Jiang Xu's alcohol tolerance was only slightly better than hers; how could she possibly outdrink Lu Jinyuan and Jiang Chen, who were heavy drinkers?
Before long, Jiang Xu was drunk and passed out.
Jiang Qingying took advantage of his drunkenness to try and find out some gossip.
Jiang Qingying nudged his shoulder and called him, "Little brother."
Jiang Xu gave a vague "hmm".
"Who is that girl you're pursuing? Do I know her?"
Jiang Xu raised her drooping head, glanced at her speechlessly, as if to say—I'm just drunk, not stupid.
Jiang Qingying, being his compatriot, could easily see the meaning in his eyes. She immediately wanted to punch him, but Lu Jinyuan pulled her back.
"I'm a little drunk, come upstairs with me to rest?" Lu Jinyuan said.
Jiang Qingying glanced at him several times, her heart filled with suspicion.
You're already drunk after such a short time? You're kidding me.
Qin Qing: "I see you've all had quite a bit to drink tonight, so let's call it a day. Xiaoying, you guys go upstairs and rest."
Since Qin Qing had spoken, Jiang Qingying swallowed her questions.
Jiang Qingying and Lu Jinyuan went back to their room to rest.
Lu Jinyuan knew that he wasn't actually drunk; that was his initial thought.
But now he felt he was drunk, otherwise there would be no memory of that short minute or two from going upstairs to the chair in the bedroom.
When he regained his senses, he was already being pressed down in a chair and kissed.
Yes, he was being held down.
Ever since Jiang Qingying entered her late pregnancy and Lu Jinyuan made it clear that he wouldn't risk touching her, Jiang Qingying inexplicably became more assertive. It was probably because his restraint and forbearance aroused her possessiveness.
In Jiang Qingying's opinion, she really enjoyed kissing Lu Jinyuan, especially his restrained response, which was neither fierce nor violent, but very gentle. The tingling sensation made her tailbone go limp.
They shared a long, lingering kiss, both slightly breathless, their lips lightly touching intentionally or unintentionally, before a new wave of passion began.
During the kiss, tinged with moisture, came her words: "You're not drunk, so why are you pretending to be?"
Lu Jinyuan wrapped his arm around her waist, tilted his head back slightly to avoid her lips, and said, "If you've already drunk your brother-in-law under the table, it wouldn't be very polite to drink your father-in-law under the table as well."
"Tsk—" Jiang Qingying scoffed lightly, "You're so thoughtful."
Lu Jinyuan curled his lips slightly, let out a slightly uncomfortable sigh, patted her waist, and gestured for her to get off him first.
Jiang Qingying was clearly unwilling.
Lu Jinyuan touched her stomach. "No."
"But you caught fire." Jiang Qing, from the film and television industry, made a pointed remark.
Lu Jinyuan asked calmly, "Who did that?"
Jiang Qingying pouted, grabbed his hand that was trying to stop her with one hand, and pressed the other hand against his neck, rubbing his Adam's apple against her palm. She kissed him forcefully.
Lu Jinyuan had no choice but to passively let Jiang Qingying, who was on his lap, do as she pleased, so he had to protect her from falling.
They moved to the Jiang family's house and lived there for a month, but they quickly got used to it. Lu Jinyuan didn't care where he lived, and Jiang Qingying had lived there since she was a child, so she naturally had no problem with it.
That was their initial thought.
Even today.
"Jin Yuan—"
"Cough cough—"
The two of them snapped out of their daze and looked at Qin Qing standing at the door.
Qin Qing's expression was intriguing; she was awkwardly stunned. After observing for a brief two seconds, she saw her daughter forcing her son-in-law into a chair. The scene was so suggestive and exciting that it made her feel ashamed.
Then, Qin Qing adjusted her facial expression, pretending not to have seen anything, and placed the tray in her hand on the table.
"Jin Yuan, this is a hangover soup. Drink it and you'll sleep better."
"Okay, thank you, Mom," Lu Jinyuan replied casually.
Jiang Qingying was startled and immediately tried to jump off Lu Jinyuan, but was held down. She glared at the culprit.
Qin Qingzhen wanted to say that she hadn't seen anything, but her daughter refused to get off her son-in-law's lap, looking smug and arrogant, which made her so angry that she slapped Jiang Qingying's arm.
"Take it easy, don't be too playful, you're about to give birth."
After Qin Qing finished speaking, she was so embarrassed that she fled the scene with her face flushed.
Jiang Qingying was left bewildered, her full, red lips parted, her index finger pointing back at herself, her eyes wide: "I...I'm not..."
She was speechless.
Okay, she was the one who insisted on coming, and she was also the one who forgot to close the door in her haste.
"Want to kiss again?" Lu Jinyuan asked, courting disaster.
Jiang Qingying lost her temper, punched him in the chest, stood up, and yelled at him, "Get out of here."
